+
+Timmy said "What's a calendar?" 
+
+Mommy smiled and said, "A calendar is a special book that tells us what day it is and when fun things will happen. We can put marks on it to remember all of the days we did something special together."

+Timmy's eyes lit up "Wow"! he said. "I want to mark all the days on the calendar that were really, really fun!" 
+
+Mommy agreed. "That's a great idea! But, let's also put a mark on the days that weren't very fun. That way, we'll know to do something different the next time."

They all fell off the mattress and onto the floor, but they couldn't stop laughing. From that day on, they always checked the mattress before they jumped on it.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to play with her toy cars, especially her blue motor car. One day, Lily's mom asked her to clean up her toys before going to bed. But Lily didn't want to stop playing, so she ignored her mom's request.
+
+The next morning, Lily couldn't find her blue motor car. She looked everywhere but it was gone. She asked her mom if she had seen it, but her mom reminded her that she didn't clean up her toys the night before. Lily started to cry and understand that she should have listened to her mom.
+
+From that day on, Lily always cleaned up her toys before going to bed. She learned that it's important to take care of your things or they might get lost. And she never lost her blue motor car again.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She had a big meeting with her friends in the park. She was excited to see them, but she was also a little scared because she didn't know who would come. 
+
+When she arrived at the park, she saw her friends waiting for her. They all had big smiles on their faces. Lily was happy to see that her friends were there. They played and had fun together. 
+
+After a while, Lily's mom came to pick her up. She asked Lily, "Did you have fun at your meeting?" Lily replied, "Yes, I had a lot of fun with my friends. They are not unknown to me anymore." Her mom smiled and said, "I'm glad you had a good time, Lily."
+Once upon a time, there was a dog named Max. Max was very loyal to his owner, a little girl named Lily. One day, Lily and Max went for a walk in the park. They played fetch with a ball and had a picnic.
+
+After they finished eating, Lily said, "Max, can you cover the food with the blanket so the ants don't get it?" Max barked happily and used his nose to cover the food with the blanket. Lily smiled and said, "Good boy, Max! You're so helpful." 
+
+As they were walking back home, Lily realized she had left her favorite toy at the park. "Oh no! I left my toy at the park," she said sadly. Max wagged his tail and said, "Don't worry, Lily. I'll help you find it." And together, they went back to the park to look for the toy.
+Once upon a time, there was a baby named Lily. She was a very tiny infant who loved to play with her toys. One day, Lily's mom brought home a new toy for her to play with. It was a soft, fluffy teddy bear. 
+
+Lily hugged the teddy bear tightly and said, "I love you, teddy!" Her mom smiled and said, "Be careful not to squeeze him too hard, Lily. You don't want to hurt him." 
+
+Lily played with her teddy bear all day, squeezing him gently and giving him lots of hugs. But as the day went on, Lily started to get tired. She lay down on her bed and hugged her teddy bear close to her chest. Suddenly, she heard a harsh tearing sound. 
+
+Lily looked down and saw that she had squeezed her teddy bear too hard and his arm had come off. She started to cry and said, "I'm sorry, teddy. I didn't mean to hurt you." Her mom came in and said, "It's okay, Lily. We can fix him." 
+
+From that day on, Lily learned to be gentle with her toys and not to squeeze them too hard. She and her teddy bear had many more happy days of playing together.
+Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy had a big key that he loved to play with. One day, Timmy accidentally swallowed the key while he was chewing on it.

Timmy learned his lesson and never chewed on the key again.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily who loved to play dress up. One day, she put on her favorite dress and pretended to be a princess. Her mom saw her and said, "Lily, you look charming in that dress!" Lily smiled and twirled around.
+
+Later that day, Lily went to the park and saw a police officer in his uniform. She was a little scared at first, but the officer smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm here to keep everyone safe." Lily felt better and said, "Wow, your uniform is cool!"
+
+As Lily was playing on the swings, she heard someone whispering. She looked around and saw her friend, Emily, hiding behind a tree. Emily whispered, "Lily, come here! I have a surprise for you!" Lily was excited and ran over to see what it was. Emily had brought her a new toy to play with. Lily said, "Thank you, Emily! You're the best!"

+
+"Hi Eddie, how are you?" asked Rosie.
+
+"I'm fine, thank you," replied Eddie. "I'm just waiting for the sun to rise so I can go hunting for some fish."
+
+Rosie looked up and saw that the sun was starting to rise. "Wow, the sun is so pretty," she said.
+
+"Yes, it is," agreed Eddie. "But we better go now, or we'll be too late."
+

+
+They went to the kitchen and the old man taught the little girl how to mix the ingredients and make the dough. They baked the cookies together and they turned out delicious! The old man smiled for the first time in a long time and the little girl was very happy. From that day on, the old man wasn't so grumpy anymore.
+Once upon a time, there was a big barrel in the farm. It was used to keep food for the animals. One day, a naughty rat sneaked into the barrel and ate all the food. The farmer was angry and said, "Oh no, this is bad! We need to stir up some more food for our animals." So, the farmer went to the store and bought more food. He stirred it up in the barrel and the animals were happy again. The rat learned his lesson and never went near the barrel again. The end.

+
+When they arrived at the park, they spread out a blanket and started to eat. Suddenly, a big gust of wind blew their blanket away. Max tried to catch it, but it flew too far. Lily started to cry because she thought their picnic was ruined.
+
+Max said, "Don't worry, Lily. I'll try to get our blanket back." Max ran after the blanket and finally caught it. He brought it back to Lily and they continued their picnic. Lily said, "You're the best friend ever, Max. That was a terrible situation, but you made it better."
+Once upon a time, there was a shy bunny named Benny. He lived in a cozy burrow with his family. One day, Benny heard a loud noise outside. He peeked out and saw a big, scary wolf with a pistol in his hand. The wolf wanted to enter Benny's burrow and eat him for dinner!
+
+Benny was very scared and didn't know what to do. He tried to hide, but the wolf could smell him. Suddenly, Benny had an idea. He remembered a secret tunnel that led to the forest. Benny quickly ran to the tunnel and entered it just in time. The wolf tried to follow him, but he was too big to fit inside.
+
+Benny was safe in the forest, but he knew he had to be careful. He realized that sometimes even the shyest animals need to be brave in order to protect themselves.
+Anna and Ben are hungry. They want to eat lunch. But Mom is not home yet. She is at work. She will come soon.
+
+"Can we cook something?" Ben asks Anna. He looks at the fridge. He sees eggs and cheese and bread.
+
+"Maybe," Anna says. She is older than Ben. She knows how to cook a little. "But we have to be careful. Cooking is hot and sharp. We don't want to get hurt."
+
+Anna and Ben take out the eggs and cheese and bread. They find a pan and a knife and a plate. They crack the eggs and put them in the pan. They cut the cheese and put it on the bread. They turn on the stove.
+
+"Look, it's cooking!" Ben says. He is happy. He likes eggs and cheese and bread.
+
+"Yes, it is," Anna says. She is proud. She is a good sister. She watches the eggs and flips them with a spatula. "But we have to wait. We can't eat it yet. It's too hot."
+
+They wait for a few minutes. They smell the eggs and cheese and bread. They hear the stove sizzle. They see the cheese melt.
+
+"Is it ready?" Ben asks. He is hungry. He wants to eat.
+
+"I think so," Anna says. She turns off the stove and puts the eggs and cheese and bread on the plate. She cuts it in half and gives one half to Ben. "Here you go. Be careful. It's still warm."
+
+"Thank you," Ben says. He takes a bite. He smiles. It's yummy.
+
+"You're welcome," Anna says. She takes a bite too. She smiles. It's yummy.
+
+They eat their lunch. They are happy. They are normal. They don't need Mom to cook for them. They can cook for themselves.
+
+But they still love Mom. And they can't wait for her to come home.
+Anna likes to use water to make things. She has a big bucket of water and some cups and spoons. She pours water from the bucket into the cups and stirs it with the spoons. She pretends she is making soup or tea or juice.
+
+One day, she sees a little bird on the fence. The bird looks thirsty and tired. Anna wants to help the bird. She takes a cup of water and walks slowly to the fence. She puts the cup on the ground and makes a soft sound. The bird sees the water and hops down. It drinks some water and looks at Anna.
+
+Anna smiles and says hello to the bird. The bird chirps and flaps its wings. It looks cheerful and happy. Anna is happy too. She has made a new friend. She gives the bird some seeds and more water. The bird stays with Anna and plays with her. They have fun with the water and the cups and the spoons. Anna and the bird are both cheerful.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a doll with a pink dress and a zip on the back. Ben had a car with four wheels and a horn. They were having fun until Ben saw Lily's doll and wanted to play with it.
+
+"Can I have your doll?" Ben asked Lily.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily said. "You have your car, play with that!"
+
+"But I like your doll, it has a zip!" Ben said. "Let me see it!"
+
+Ben tried to grab the doll from Lily, but Lily held it tight. They pulled and tugged, and the doll's zip broke. The dress came off, and the doll was naked. Lily and Ben both gasped.
+
+"Look what you did!" Lily cried. "You broke my doll's zip! You are selfish!"
+
+"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to!" Ben said. "You are selfish too, you didn't share!"
+
+They both started to cry, and their mom heard them. She came to the living room and saw the broken doll and the angry children.
+
+"What's going on here?" she asked.
+
+They both told her what happened, and she shook her head.
+
+"You both need to learn to share and be gentle with your toys," she said. "Lily, you can't keep your doll all to yourself. Ben, you can't take things that are not yours. How would you feel if someone broke your car?"
+
+They both looked down and felt sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Ben said. "I won't break your doll again."
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," Lily said. "You can play with my doll sometimes."
+
+They hugged and said they were sorry to their mom too. She smiled and helped them fix the doll's zip. Then she gave them each a cookie and a hug, and they played nicely together.
+Sam and Mia are twins. They like to play games. Sometimes they play nice. Sometimes they play mean. They are very competitive.
+
+One day, they play a game with a big ball. They have to carry the ball to the other side of the yard. They cannot drop the ball or run with it. They have to walk slowly and carefully.

+
+Mia goes next. She picks up the ball and puts it on her head. She walks slowly and carefully. She does not drop the ball. She reaches the other side of the yard. She is happy. She says, "I win! I win!"
+
+Sam and Mia look at each other. They both say, "I win! I win!" They start to argue. They say, "No, I win! No, I win!"
+
+Mom hears them. She comes to the yard. She sees them arguing. She says, "Stop! Stop! You both win! You both did a good job! You both carried the ball on your head. You both walked slowly and carefully. You both reached the other side of the yard. You both win!"
+
+Sam and Mia stop arguing. They look at Mom. They look at each other. They smile. They say, "Thank you, Mom. We both win. We both did a good job. We are sorry for arguing. We love you, Mom."
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "I love you, too. You are both good kids. Now, let's go inside and have some juice and cookies."
+Anna and her dog Spot loved to go on trains. They would walk to the station and buy a ticket. Then they would wait for the train to come. Spot was a loyal dog. He always stayed close to Anna and did not bark at other people or animals.
+
+One day, Anna and Spot got on the train. They found a seat near the window. Anna liked to look at the trees and houses outside. Spot liked to rest his head on Anna's lap. They were happy.

+
+Anna saw a man in a uniform. He was a guard. He walked along the train and checked on the passengers. He came to Anna and Spot. He smiled and said, "Hello, little girl. What is your name?"

+Anna said, "I am Anna. This is Spot. He is my dog."
+
+The guard said, "You have a nice dog. He is very loyal. He looks after you, right?"
+
+Anna said, "Yes, he does. He is my best friend."
+
+The guard said, "That is good. You know, I have a dog too. His name is Rex. He is at home. I miss him a lot. Do you want to see a picture of him?"
+
+Anna said, "Yes, please."
+
+The guard took out his phone and showed Anna a picture of Rex. He was a big, black dog with a white spot on his chest. He looked friendly and strong.
+
+Anna said, "He is very handsome. He looks like a good dog."
+
+The guard said, "Thank you. He is. He likes to play and run and pull on his rope. Do you play with Spot?"

+
+Anna said, "Okay. Thank you, guard. You are very nice."
+
+The guard said, "You are welcome, Anna. You are very brave. Bye, Spot. You are a good dog."

+The guard left and Anna and Spot cuddled together. They felt better. They knew they were not alone. They had each other. They were loyal.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a big map of the world. They want to go to the west. The west is far away. They need a plane.
+
+"Let's make a plane with paper," says Tom.
+
+"Good idea," says Sam.
+
+They find some paper and scissors. They cut the paper into a long shape. They fold it and make wings. They have a paper plane.
+
+"Ready to fly?" says Tom.
+
+"Yes, let's go!" says Sam.
+
+They throw the paper plane in the air. It flies high and fast. They run after it. They pretend they are in the west. They see mountains and lakes and animals. They have fun. They are happy.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toy yacht in the bathtub. They pretend they are sailors and go on adventures.
+
+One day, they see a big yacht on the TV. It is white and shiny and has many rooms. Anna and Ben want to see it for real.
+
+"Can we go to the yacht, Mommy?" they ask.
+
+"Maybe someday, my loves. But it is very far and difficult to get there. You need a lot of money and a plane ticket," Mommy says.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They wish they could go to the yacht.
+
+They go back to the bathtub and play with their toy yacht. They make it sail and whistle like the wind.
+
+"Whoo-whoo!" they whistle.
+
+They imagine they are on the big yacht. They have fun and forget their sadness.
+
+They are happy with their toy yacht. It is their favorite toy.
+Tom and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park, draw pictures, and share snacks. One day, they found a shiny stone in the grass. It was red and sparkly, like a star.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Tom said. "It's so pretty!"
+
+"Can I see?" Lily asked. She held out her hand.
+
+Tom gave her the stone. "Here, you can have it. It's a gift for you."
+
+"Really? Thank you, Tom! You are so nice!" Lily said. She hugged him. "I will keep it forever. It will be a memory of our friendship."
+
+They smiled at each other. Then they made a pinky promise. They hooked their little fingers together and said, "We will always be friends, no matter what."
+
+But things changed. Tom and Lily grew up. They went to different schools. They made new friends. They stopped playing in the park, drawing pictures, and sharing snacks. They forgot about the shiny stone and the pinky promise.
+
+One day, many years later, Lily was cleaning her room. She found a box under her bed. She opened it and saw the shiny stone. It was still red and sparkly, like a star. She remembered Tom and their friendship. She wondered where he was and what he was doing.
+
+She felt a pang in her heart. She missed him. She wished they could talk and play again. She picked up the stone and held it to her chest. She whispered, "Tom, where are you? Do you still remember me?"
+
+She did not know that Tom was in the same city. He was walking on the street, looking for a job. He was sad and lonely. He had no friends. He wished he could find someone who cared about him. He reached into his pocket and felt something. He pulled it out and saw a picture. It was a picture of him and Lily, when they were little. They were smiling and holding the shiny stone.
+
+He remembered Lily and their friendship. He wondered where she was and what she was doing.
+
+He felt a pang in his heart. He missed her. He wished they could talk and play again. He held the picture to his chest. He whispered, "Lily, where are you? Do you still remember me?"
+Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to play with their toy soldiers. They had many soldiers of different colors and shapes. They liked to make them fight and pretend they were in a war. They would stir up the dirt and make forts and trenches for their soldiers.
+
+One day, they found a new toy soldier in the store. It was light and shiny and had a big gun. Tom and Sam both wanted it, but there was only one. They started to argue and fight over who would get it. They pulled and pushed and shouted at each other.
+
+Mom saw them and was very sad. She took the toy soldier away and said, "You boys are being very naughty. You are not sharing and being kind. You are making a war over a toy. Do you know what war does? It hurts people and makes them unhappy. It breaks things and makes them dirty. It is not fun or good. It is bad and scary."
+
+Tom and Sam felt sorry and ashamed. They hugged each other and said, "We are sorry, Mom. We don't want to make a war. We want to be friends and brothers. We don't need the toy soldier. We have each other and our other soldiers. We can play together and have fun."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "That's very good, boys. I'm proud of you. You have learned a very important lesson. War is not the answer. Peace and love are the answer. Now, go and play nicely and share your toys."
+
+The end.
+Ben and Mia are twins. They like to play dress-up with their hats. Ben has a red hat with a star. Mia has a blue hat with a flower. They have fun pretending to be a superhero and a fairy.
+
+One day, they find a new hat in their toy box. It is a big hat with many colors and a long feather. Ben and Mia both want to wear it. They start to pull the hat from each other.
+
+"Give me the hat!" Ben says. "It is mine!"
+
+"No, it is mine!" Mia says. "I saw it first!"
+
+They twist the hat hard. The hat rips in half. The feather falls off. Ben and Mia are sad. They broke the hat.
+
+Mom hears them cry. She comes to see what is wrong. She sees the hat on the floor. She is not angry. She is sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben and Mia," Mom says. "That was my hat when I was little. I wanted to share it with you. But it was old and fragile. It was not strong enough for your game."
+
+Ben and Mia hug Mom. They say they are sorry too. They did not mean to break the hat.
+
+Mom smiles. She has an idea. She takes the two halves of the hat and the feather. She goes to the kitchen. She comes back with a plate of cookies. She puts the hat halves on their heads. She sticks the feather in a cookie. She gives them each a cookie.
+
+"Here you go," Mom says. "Now you have two hats and a yummy feather. You can still play dress-up. But be gentle with the hats. And share the cookies."
+
+Ben and Mia smile. They thank Mom. They put on their hats. They eat their cookies. They share the feather. They are happy. They love Mom. They love each other. They love their hats.
+Jill and Tom were friends who liked to draw. They had many colors and papers to make pictures. One day, they decided to draw circles with different colors. Jill made a big red circle, Tom made a small blue circle, and they made more circles with other colors.
+
+They were having fun until Jill saw something unusual. She saw a brown spot on her red circle. She looked closer and saw that it was a bug. A bug had spoiled her circle! She was very angry and shouted at the bug.
+
+"Go away, bug! You spoiled my circle! It was so pretty and now it is ugly!" she said.
+
+Tom heard her and came to see what was wrong. He saw the bug and the brown spot on Jill's circle. He felt sorry for Jill, but he also thought the bug was interesting. He wanted to look at it more.
+
+"Jill, don't be mad. The bug is not bad. It is unusual. Maybe it likes circles too. Maybe it wants to be your friend," he said.
+
+Jill did not like what Tom said. She did not want the bug to be her friend. She wanted it to leave her circle alone. She pushed Tom away and tried to shoo the bug away. But the bug did not move. It stayed on her circle and made more brown spots.
+
+Jill and Tom started to argue. Jill said the bug was ruining her circle. Tom said the bug was making her circle more special. They both wanted the bug to do what they wanted. They did not listen to each other. They did not have fun anymore. They forgot why they liked to draw circles.
+Tom and Lily were having lunch with Mom. They had soup and bread. Tom liked soup, but Lily did not. She said soup was too hot and too wet. She wanted something different.
+
+"Can I have a sandwich, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, Lily, you have to eat your soup. It is good for you. It has carrots and potatoes and chicken. You like those, right?" Mom said.
+
+Lily made a face. She did not want to eat her soup. She pushed her bowl away. Some soup spilled on the table.
+
+"Oops, Lily, you made a mess. You have to wipe it with a napkin. Here, take this one," Mom said, handing her a napkin.
+
+Lily took the napkin and wiped the soup. But she did not do it well. She smeared the soup all over the table. She thought it was funny. She giggled.
+
+"Look, Mom, I made a picture with the soup. It is a flower," Lily said, pointing to the soup stain.
+
+Tom looked at Lily's picture. He did not think it was funny. He thought it was silly. He shook his head.
+
+"That is not a flower, Lily. That is a mess. You have to wipe it better. Like this," Tom said, showing her how to wipe the soup with his napkin.
+
+Lily looked at Tom's napkin. It was clean and dry. She looked at her napkin. It was wet and dirty. She saw that Tom was right. She had to wipe it better.
+
+"Sorry, Tom. Sorry, Mom. I will wipe it better. Thank you for showing me, Tom," Lily said, wiping the soup again with her napkin.
+
+Mom smiled. She was glad that Tom and Lily were helping each other. She hoped that Lily would also try her soup. She said, "Good job, Lily. You are a good wiper. Now, do you want to taste your soup? It is not too hot anymore. It is yummy."
+
+Lily looked at her soup. She was not sure. She still wanted something different. But she saw that Tom was eating his soup. He looked happy. He said, "Mmm, this soup is good, Mom. Thank you."
+
+Lily thought, maybe the soup was not so bad. Maybe it was yummy. She decided to give it a try. She took a spoonful of soup and put it in her mouth. She tasted the carrots and the potatoes and the chicken. She liked them. She smiled.
+
+"Hey, this soup is good, Mom. Thank you. I like it," Lily said.
+
+Mom was happy. She said, "You're welcome, Lily. I'm glad you like it. You are a good eater. And you are a good wiper. And you are a good sister. And you are a good girl."
+
+Tom and Lily hugged Mom. They said, "We love you, Mom. You are a good mom."
+
+Mom hugged them back. She said, "I love you, too, Tom and Lily. You are good kids."
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the garden. They liked to make them zoom on the grass and the dirt. Sometimes they pretended they were racing or chasing each other.
+
+"Look, I have a new car!" Ben said, showing Lily a shiny red car. "It is very fast and loud. Zoom, zoom, zoom!"
+
+Lily smiled and picked up her own car. It was pink and had a rhinoceros on the hood. "I like your car, but I like mine too. It is very strong and brave. Roar, roar, roar!"
+
+They decided to have a race to see whose car was better. They lined up their cars on the edge of the garden and counted to three. Then they pushed their cars as hard as they could and watched them zoom away.
+
+But as they ran after their cars, they saw something that made them stop. Their cars had crashed into a flower pot and broken into pieces. The flower pot was also cracked and the flowers were scattered on the ground.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Ben cried. "Our cars are ruined! And we broke the flower pot too! It was very delicate and pretty. Mommy will be very angry!"
+
+They felt very sad and sorry. They did not know what to do. They wished they had been more careful and not zoomed their cars so fast.
+
+Then they heard a voice behind them. It was Mommy. She had seen what had happened. She came over and hugged them.
+
+"I'm not angry, my loves," she said. "I know you were just having fun. But you have to be more careful with your toys and the things around you. Some things are very delicate and can break easily. And some things are very important and can't be replaced."
+
+She helped them pick up the pieces of their cars and the flower pot. She said they could try to fix them later. She also gave them some cookies and milk to cheer them up.
+
+Lily and Ben thanked Mommy and said they were sorry. They learned their lesson. They decided to play with their other toys instead. They still liked to zoom, but they zoomed more gently and safely.
+One day, a farmer named Ben went to the lake with his boat. He wanted to sail and have fun. He put his boat in the water and got in. He had a big smile on his face.
+
+But then, he saw something disgusting in the water. It was a big fish with a lot of slime and dirt on it. It looked very sick and ugly. The fish saw Ben and his boat and swam towards them. It opened its mouth and made a loud noise.
+
+"Go away, you disgusting fish!" Ben shouted. "You are scaring me and my boat! You are not nice!"
+
+The fish did not listen. It kept swimming closer and closer to Ben and his boat. It wanted to bite them and make them go away. Ben was very scared and angry. He grabbed a stick and tried to hit the fish.
+
+But the stick was too short and the fish was too fast. The fish jumped out of the water and landed on Ben's boat. It knocked Ben off his boat and into the water. Ben splashed and screamed. He did not like the water. It was cold and wet.
+
+"Help! Help!" Ben cried. "Someone, please help me!"
+
+Luckily, a girl named Lily was nearby. She heard Ben's cries and saw what happened. She ran to the lake and got another boat. She paddled quickly to Ben and the fish. She saw Ben in the water and the fish on his boat.
+
+"Ben, are you okay?" Lily asked. "Don't worry, I will help you!"
+
+She reached out her hand and pulled Ben into her boat. She gave him a blanket and a hug. She was very brave and kind.
+
+"Thank you, Lily!" Ben said. "You saved me from the disgusting fish! You are my hero!"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "You're welcome, Ben! I'm glad you're safe! But what were you doing here? Why did you want to sail?"
+
+Ben looked at his boat and the fish. He felt ashamed and sad. He said, "I wanted to sail and have fun. But I did not think about the fish and the water. I was not careful and smart. I'm sorry, Lily."
+
+Lily said, "It's okay, Ben. Everyone makes mistakes. But you have to be more careful and respectful next time. The fish and the water are also living things. They have feelings and needs. You have to share and be nice to them."
+
+Ben nodded and said, "You're right, Lily. I will be more careful and respectful next time. I will share and be nice to the fish and the water. And I will also be more thankful and friendly to you. You are my best friend, Lily."
+
+Lily said, "You are my best friend too, Ben. And I'm happy to sail with you. But let's go back to the shore now. It's getting late and we have to go home."
+
+Ben said, "Okay, Lily. Let's go back to the shore. And let's take the fish with us. Maybe we can find a better place for it. Maybe we can make it happy and healthy again."
+
+Lily said, "That's a good idea, Ben. Let's do that. Maybe the fish will be our friend too."
+
+They paddled back to the shore, taking the fish with them. They waved goodbye to the lake and thanked it for the adventure. They learned a lot that day. They learned to sail, to help, to forgive, and to be friends.
+Tom and Mia like to play with their toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is a big robot. The robot can talk and move and make noises. Tom and Mia pretend that the robot is their friend and they go on adventures with him.
+
+One day, Tom and Mia find some scissors in the kitchen. They want to make the robot look more fun. They decide to cut his hair and his clothes. They cut and cut and cut, and laugh and laugh and laugh. The robot does not like it. He says, "Stop! Stop! You are hurting me! You are making me smelly!"
+
+Tom and Mia do not listen. They think the robot is funny. They cut more and more, until the robot has no hair and no clothes. He is sad and angry and smelly. He says, "You are not my friends! You are mean and bad! I do not want to play with you anymore!"
+
+Tom and Mia stop cutting. They look at the robot. He is not fun anymore. He is ugly and smelly and sad. They feel sorry for him. They say, "We are sorry, robot. We did not mean to hurt you. We wanted to make you look more fun. Can you forgive us? Can we still be your friends?"
+
+The robot thinks for a while. He is still sad and angry and smelly, but he also misses Tom and Mia. He says, "I forgive you, but you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will never cut me again. You have to promise me that you will be nice and kind and gentle with me. You have to promise me that you will love me as I am."
+
+Tom and Mia nod and hug the robot. They say, "We promise, robot. We promise. We love you as you are. You are our friend." The robot smiles and hugs them back. He says, "Thank you, Tom and Mia. Thank you. You are my friends, too." They all go to the living room and play with their other toys. They are happy and sorry and smelly.

+
+One day, Tara sees a book about planets. She asks her mom, "What are planets, mom?"
+
+Mom says, "Planets are big balls of rock and gas that go around the sun. There are many planets in the sky, but we live on one called Earth."
+
+Tara says, "Wow, that's amazing! Can I sing to the planets, mom?"
+
+Mom says, "Sure, you can sing to the planets. But they are very far away, so they might not hear you."
+
+Tara says, "That's okay, I'll sing very loud. Maybe they will hear me and sing back."
+
+Tara goes to the window and looks at the sky. She sees a bright star and thinks it is a planet. She sings a song to the star. She sings, "Hello, planet, how are you? Do you like to sing too? I'm Tara, and I'm your friend. I hope you have a good day, the end."
+
+The star does not sing back, but it twinkles a little. Tara thinks the star likes her song. She feels happy and says, "Thank you, planet, for listening to me. You are very pretty and shiny. I'll sing to you again tomorrow. Good night, planet, sweet dreams."
+
+Mom hugs Tara and says, "You are very sweet and alert, Tara. You have a big imagination and a big heart. I'm proud of you, my little singer. Now, let's go to bed. It's time to sleep."
+
+Tara nods and says, "Okay, mom. I love you, and I love the planets. Good night, mom, sweet dreams."
+Lily and Tom were playing in the yard when they saw a big truck stop by the road. The truck had a lot of black rocks on it. Lily and Tom ran to the fence to see what the truck was doing.
+
+"Hello, kids," the truck driver said. "Do you know what these are?" He pointed to the black rocks.
+
+"No, what are they?" Lily asked.
+
+"They are coal. They are used to make fire and heat. I am delivering them to the factory over there." The truck driver said.
+
+"Can we have some?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sure, why not. Here, take these two pieces. But be careful, they are dirty and heavy." The truck driver gave them each a piece of coal.
+
+"Thank you!" Lily and Tom said. They ran back to the yard with their coal.
+
+"What are we going to do with them?" Lily asked.
+
+"Let's pretend they are treasure. We can hide them and then find them again." Tom said.
+
+"Okay, that sounds fun. But where should we hide them?" Lily asked.
+
+"How about under the tree?" Tom suggested.
+
+"Good idea. Come on, let's go." Lily said.
+
+They ran to the tree and dug a hole with their hands. They put their coal in the hole and covered it with dirt and leaves. Then they ran to the other side of the yard.
+
+"Ready, set, go!" Tom said. They started to look for their coal.
+
+But as they were looking, they heard a loud noise. It was the truck driver. He had started his truck and was driving away. The truck made a lot of smoke and noise. Lily and Tom were scared. They stopped looking and ran to the house.
+
+"Mama, mama!" They cried. "There is a big truck and it is making a lot of noise and smoke!"
+
+Mama came out and saw the truck. She hugged Lily and Tom and said, "Don't worry, my loves. It is just the coal truck. He is going to the factory. He is not going to hurt you. He is just doing his job."
+
+"Really?" Lily asked.
+
+"Really." Mama said. "Now, why don't you come inside and settle down. I have some cookies and milk for you."
+
+"Okay, mama." Lily and Tom said. They followed mama inside and left their coal under the tree. They forgot about their treasure and enjoyed their cookies and milk. They were not scared anymore.
+Lily liked to sing. She sang all day long. She sang when she woke up, when she ate, when she played, and when she went to bed. She sang loud and high and low and soft. She sang happy songs and sad songs and silly songs. She sang songs she knew and songs she made up.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big poster on the wall. It had a picture of people singing on a stage. They wore fancy clothes and had funny faces. The poster said "Opera". Lily asked her mom what opera was.
+
+"Opera is a kind of singing, Lily. It is very beautiful and dramatic. Some people love opera and some people don't. Do you want to see the opera, Lily?" her mom asked.
+
+"Yes, yes, yes!" Lily said. She wanted to see the opera. She wanted to hear the opera. She wanted to join the opera.
+
+Her mom bought two tickets for the opera. They dressed up and went to the theater. They sat in their seats and waited for the opera to start. Lily was very excited.
+
+The opera started. The people on the stage sang very loud and very high. They sang in a language Lily did not understand. They moved around and acted out a story. Lily watched and listened. She liked the opera. She liked it a lot.
+
+She liked it so much that she wanted to join the opera. She wanted to sing with the people on the stage. She wanted to wear fancy clothes and have funny faces. She wanted to be part of the story.
+
+She stood up on her seat and opened her mouth. She sang as loud and as high as she could. She sang a song she made up. She sang with all her heart.
+
+The people around her looked at her. Some of them smiled. Some of them frowned. Some of them shushed her. Some of them clapped. The people on the stage looked at her. Some of them laughed. Some of them stopped singing. Some of them kept singing. The opera was broken.
+
+Lily's mom was very embarrassed. She grabbed Lily and took her out of the theater. She said "Lily, you can't sing in the opera. You have to be quiet and listen. You have to wait until the opera is over. You have to be polite and respectful."
+
+Lily was very sad. She did not understand. She did not mean to break the opera. She just wanted to join the opera. She just wanted to sing. She loved to sing. She cried and cried.
+
+Her mom hugged her and said "I'm sorry, Lily. I know you love to sing. But the opera is not the place to sing. The opera is the place to watch and listen. Maybe we can find another place for you to sing. Maybe we can find a place where you can join other singers. Maybe we can find a place where you can be happy."
+
+Lily looked at her mom and said "Really? Can we find a place like that?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said "Yes, Lily. We can find a place like that. We can find a place where you can sing your heart out. We can find a place where you can join the choir."
+Ben liked to play in the park with his ball. He kicked it hard and ran after it. He saw a big bush with red flowers. He wanted to smell them. He ran to the bush with his ball.
+
+But the bush had thorns. They were sharp and hurt. Ben felt a sting on his hand. He cried out loud. He dropped his ball. He wanted to get it back. But the ball was inside the bush. He could not reach it.
+
+He tried to pull the ball out. But the thorns scratched his arm. He cried more. He was scared and sad. He wanted his mom. He looked around. He saw his mom on a bench. She was reading a book. She did not hear him.
+
+He wanted to run to her. But he did not want to leave his ball. He loved his ball. It was his favorite toy. He tried to resist the pain. He tried to be brave. He tried to grab the ball again. But he was too weak. He could not move the bush. He could not free his ball.
+
+He gave up. He let go of the ball. He ran to his mom. He hugged her tight. He showed her his hand and his arm. They were red and sore. He told her what happened. She kissed his wounds. She said she was sorry. She said she was proud of him. She said she would get his ball back.
+
+She took him by the hand. She walked to the bush. She had a stick. She used it to push the bush away. She saw the ball. She picked it up. She gave it to Ben. He smiled. He thanked her. He hugged her again. He was happy. He learned a lesson. He would not go near the bush again. He would play with his ball in a safe place. He would listen to his mom. He would be careful.
+Ben liked to grow squash in his garden. He planted the seeds, watered them, and watched them grow. He was very proud of his squash. They were big and orange and tasty.

+One day, he decided to enter his squash in the fair. He wanted to win a prize and show everyone his squash. He picked the biggest and best squash he had and put it in his wagon. He pulled his wagon to the fair with his mom and dad.
+
+At the fair, there were many other squash. Some were small, some were big, some were green, some were yellow. Ben looked at them and thought his squash was the best. He put his squash on a table with a number. He waited for the judges to come.
+
+The judges looked at all the squash. They touched them, smelled them, and measured them. They wrote down some notes. Ben watched them and hoped they liked his squash. He crossed his fingers and wished for a prize.
+
+Finally, the judges announced the winners. They said the third prize went to a green squash, the second prize went to a yellow squash, and the first prize went to...Ben's squash! Ben was so happy.

+Lily and Max are twins. They like to play with their toys and their dog, Spot. One day, they want to visit their grandma, who lives in a big house with a garden.
+
+They ask their mom, "Can we go see grandma today?"
+
+Mom says, "Yes, we can. But first, we have to pack some things. We need clothes, books, and a gift for grandma. What do you want to give her?"

+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play outside. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big red ball. They could kick it, throw it, bounce it, and roll it on the lawn.
+
+One day, they saw a new boy in the park. His name was Sam, and he had a brilliant blue bike. It had shiny wheels, a loud horn, and a basket with stickers. Lily and Max wanted to try the bike, but Sam said no. He said it was his bike, and he did not want to share.
+
+Lily and Max were sad. They asked Sam nicely, but he still said no. They offered him their ball, but he did not want it. They tried to be friendly, but he was mean. They did not know what to do.
+
+Then, they had an idea. They decided to ignore Sam and his bike, and play with their ball instead. They had so much fun, kicking, throwing, bouncing, and rolling the ball on the lawn. They laughed and smiled, and did not care about the bike.
+
+Sam saw them, and felt lonely. He realized that his bike was not as fun as their ball. He wanted to join them, but he was afraid they would say no. He wished he had been nicer, and shared his bike.
+
+He gathered his courage, and rode his bike to them. He said he was sorry, and asked if he could play with them. Lily and Max were surprised, but they were kind. They said yes, and let him try their ball. They also tried his bike, and took turns. They all had fun, and became friends.
+
+The moral of the story is: Sharing is caring. It is better to be generous and friendly, than to be selfish and mean. You can have more fun, and make more friends, if you share your toys.

+
+"Oh no, our snowman is melting!" Anna cries.
+

+
+He asked his dad what it was. His dad said it was lead. He said lead was a metal, but it did not like magnets. He said lead was good for making pencils and pipes. He said Tom could keep it, but he should not put it in his mouth.
+
+Tom was happy. He had a new toy. He decided to use the lead as a wand. He pretended he was a jolly wizard. He waved his lead wand and said magic words. He made his magnet and other things move. He made his dad and mom laugh. He had a jolly time with his lead and his magnet.

+
+But then, she saw a big bear. The bear wanted to eat the honey. He was hungry and angry. He growled and pawed at the hive. The bees were scared and angry. They stung the bear.
+
+Sara did not want to sting the bear. She did not want to hurt him. She wanted to be friends. She was flexible. She flew to the bear and said, "Hello, bear. I am Sara. I am a bee. Do you want to share the honey?"
+
+The bear was surprised. He did not expect a bee to talk. He did not expect a bee to be friendly. He was curious and hungry. He said, "Hello, Sara. I am Ben. I am a bear. I like honey. Can I have some?"
+
+Sara smiled and said, "Yes, Ben. You can have some. But not too much. The honey is for the bees too. We work hard to make it. Can you be nice to the bees?"
+
+Ben nodded and said, "Yes, Sara. I can be nice to the bees. I do not want to hurt them. I want to be friends. Thank you for sharing the honey."
+

+
+One day, they see a shiny bug with many colors. It is a beetle. Tim wants to catch it with the net. He runs after it, but it is very fast. He swings the net, but he misses. The net gets stuck on a branch.
+
+"Help me, Mia!" Tim says. "The net is stuck!"

+
+One day, Tim and Lily go to the park. They bring their dogs and a ball. They put leashes on their dogs. They want to play catch with the ball. They take turns to throw the ball and catch it.

+They play catch with the ball again. They have fun. They do not see the naughty boy. He is sad and sorry. He has a bump on his head. He learns to share.
+One day, a large cat saw a small mouse in the garden. The cat wanted to catch the mouse and play with it. He ran after the mouse, but the mouse was very fast and clever. The mouse ran into a hole under a tree and hid there.
+
+The cat waited outside the hole, hoping the mouse would come out. He was hungry and bored. He started to complain.
+
+"Come out, come out, little mouse," he said. "Don't be afraid. I just want to be your friend."
+
+The mouse heard the cat and laughed. He knew the cat was lying. He did not want to be the cat's friend. He wanted to be safe.
+
+"Go away, go away, big cat," he said. "You are not my friend. You are mean and scary. I don't want to play with you."
+
+The cat was angry and sad. He did not like the mouse's words. He tried to dig the hole with his paws, but the hole was too deep and hard. He hurt his paws and his nose.
+
+He gave up and left the hole. He looked for another mouse to play with, but he could not find any. All the mice were hiding from him. He went back to his home and slept on his bed. He dreamed of catching a mouse and having fun.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they went to the big field near their house. The field had many flowers of different colors. Tom and Lily ran and picked some flowers to make a crown.
+
+"Look, Lily, I made a red crown for you!" Tom said, holding a circle of red flowers. "It is very pretty, like you!"
+
+"Thank you, Tom, you are very kind!" Lily said, smiling. "I made a yellow crown for you! It is very bright, like the sun!"
+
+They put the crowns on their heads and hugged each other. Then they lay down on the grass and looked at the sky. They saw white clouds that looked like animals and shapes.
+
+"What do you see, Tom?" Lily asked.
+
+"I see a big bear, a small mouse, and a star!" Tom said, pointing at the clouds.
+
+"What do you see, Lily?" Tom asked.
+
+"I see a flower, a bird, and a heart!" Lily said, pointing at the clouds.
+
+They laughed and talked about the clouds. They felt happy and warm. They closed their eyes and dreamed of more adventures.
+Tim and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big truck with a cage on it. Inside the cage, there was a leopard. The leopard had yellow fur with black spots. It looked sad and scared.
+
+"Wow, look at that weird cat!" Tim said. "It is so big and pretty!"
+
+"Let's go and say hello to it!" Lily said. "Maybe it wants to be our friend!"
+
+They ran towards the truck, but a man stopped them. He was wearing a green hat and a brown coat. He had a big stick in his hand.
+
+"Hey, kids, stay away from the leopard!" he said. "It is not a cat, it is a wild animal. It can bite you and hurt you!"
+
+"But why do you have it in a cage?" Tim asked. "That is not nice!"
+
+The man sighed. "I work for the zoo. The leopard was sick, so we had to separate it from the other animals and take it to the vet. We will bring it back when it is better."
+
+"Can we see it at the zoo?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. But you have to be careful and respectful. Leopards are not pets, they are part of nature. They need space and freedom to be happy."
+
+Tim and Lily nodded. They understood that the leopard was different from their cat at home. They said goodbye to the leopard and thanked the man. They learned that some animals are not meant to be caged or touched, but admired from a distance.
+Sara and Ben were playing hide and seek in the park. Sara was the seeker and Ben was the hider. Ben ran to a big tree and hid behind it. He hoped Sara would not find him.
+
+Sara looked around and saw the tree. She walked slowly towards it. She thought she heard a noise behind it. She said, "I know you are there, Ben. Come out, come out, wherever you are!"
+
+Ben was scared. He did not want to be found. He trembled behind the tree. He wished he had a power to make himself invisible. He stayed very quiet and hoped Sara would go away.
+
+Sara reached the tree and peeked behind it. She saw Ben's shoes sticking out. She smiled and said, "Gotcha, Ben! I found you!"
+
+Ben jumped out and said, "No fair, Sara! You cheated! You saw my shoes!"
+
+Sara said, "No, I did not cheat. You hid badly. You should have hidden your shoes too. Come on, let's play again. This time, you are the seeker and I am the hider. I will show you how to hide well."
+
+Ben said, "OK, fine. But you have to count to ten first. And no peeking!"
+
+Sara said, "OK, OK. I will count to ten. And I will not peek. Ready, set, go!"
+
+Sara ran away and looked for a hidden spot. Ben covered his eyes and started to count. He hoped he would find Sara this time. He wondered where she would hide. He said, "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. Here I come, Sara. Ready or not!"
+Tim and Mia are friends who like to play with toys. They have many toys in their room, but they are not organized. They have cars, dolls, blocks, books, and animals all over the floor.

+
+Tim and Mia look at each other. They do not want to clean up. They want to play more.
+
+"But mom, we are having fun!" says Tim.
+
+"But mom, we are in the jungle!" says Mia.
+
+"No, you are not in the jungle. You are in your room. And your room has to be tidy. Come on, help me. It will be easy if we do it together."
+
+Tim and Mia sigh. They put down the animals. They help Tim's mom. They pick up the cars and put them in the car box. They pick up the dolls and put them in the doll box. They pick up the blocks and put them in the block box. They pick up the books and put them in the book box. They pick up the animals and put them in the animal box.
+
+They finish cleaning up. They look at their room. It is organized. It looks nice.
+
+"Good job, Tim and Mia!" says Tim's mom. "You did a great job. I am proud of you. Now you can play again. But remember to put your toys back when you are done."
+
+"Okay, mom," says Tim.
+
+"Okay, mom," says Mia.
+
+They hug Tim's mom. They thank her for helping them. They open the animal box. They take out the lion, the tiger, the bear, and the monkey. They smile at each other.
+
+"Roar!" they say. "We are the kings and queens of the jungle. We are strong and brave and fast and smart and big and cuddly and silly and playful."
+
+They play with the animals. They have fun. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. But they did not like the big dog that lived next to the park. The dog was fierce and loud. It always barked and growled at them.
+
+One day, the dog's owner forgot to close the gate. The dog ran out and chased Lily and Tom. They were scared and ran away. But the dog was faster and caught up with them.
+
+"Help! Help!" Lily and Tom shouted. They saw a man walking by. He had a belt in his hand. He heard their cries and ran to help them.
+
+"Go away, bad dog!" the man said. He waved his belt at the dog. The dog was afraid of the belt. It stopped and backed away.
+
+"Thank you, mister!" Lily and Tom said. They hugged the man.
+
+"You're welcome, kids. Are you OK?" the man asked.
+
+"Yes, we're OK. But we don't like that dog. It's fierce and mean." Lily said.
+
+"I know. It's not a nice dog. It should be on a leash. I'll talk to its owner. Come on, let's go back to the park. I'll watch over you." the man said.
+
+Lily and Tom smiled. They liked the man. He was kind and brave. They went back to the park and played some more. They did not see the dog again. The dog refused to come out of its yard. It was ashamed and scared of the belt.
+Tom and Lily are pupils in the same class. They like to play with blocks and build things. One day, they want to build a big tower with all the blocks. But there are not enough blocks for both of them.
+
+"Let me have some blocks, Lily!" Tom says. He tries to take some blocks from Lily's pile.
+
+"No, Tom! These are my blocks! Go find your own!" Lily says. She holds on to her blocks tightly.
+
+Tom and Lily start to pull and push each other. They are both angry and sad. They do not want to share the blocks. They do not want to play together.
+
+The teacher sees them fighting. She is not happy. She walks over to them and says, "Tom and Lily, what are you doing? Why are you being so bad? You should not fight over the blocks. You should share and cooperate. That is how you can build a big tower together."
+
+Tom and Lily stop fighting. They look at the teacher. They feel ashamed. They know they were wrong. They say, "We are sorry, teacher. We were bad. We will share and cooperate. We will build a big tower together."
+
+The teacher smiles. She says, "That is good, Tom and Lily. I am glad you are sorry. Now, go and play nicely. And show me your big tower when you are done."
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They say, "Okay, teacher. Thank you, teacher." They go and play nicely. They share and cooperate. They build a big tower with all the blocks. They are happy and proud. They show the teacher their big tower. The teacher is happy and proud, too. She says, "Well done, Tom and Lily. You are good pupils. You have learned a valuable lesson today."
+Tom and Sue are twins. They like to play and learn new things. They are smart kids. One day, they receive a big box from their grandma. It is a mystery box. They do not know what is inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Tom says. He is excited.
+
+"Wait, wait!" Sue says. She is curious. "Maybe there is a clue on the box. Let's look for it."
+
+They look at the box. They see a picture of a book, a picture of a puzzle, and a picture of a teddy bear. They also see a note from their grandma. It says: "Dear Tom and Sue, I hope you enjoy this mystery box. It has something for each of you. To find out what it is, you have to read, think, and hug. Love, Grandma."
+
+"Wow, this is fun!" Tom says. He likes to read.
+
+"Me too!" Sue says. She likes to think.
+
+They open the box. They find a book, a puzzle, and a teddy bear. The book has a story about twins who go on an adventure. The puzzle has a picture of their grandma and them. The teddy bear has a heart that says: "I love you."
+
+They are happy. They read the book together. They make the puzzle together. They hug the teddy bear together.

+
+The game starts. Tom and Ben cheer for their team. They see the players run and kick and score. They clap and shout and jump. They are happy.
+
+But then, the other team scores a goal. Tom and Ben are sad. They boo and frown and sit. They are not happy.
+
+The game is almost over. The score is tied. The teams are very competitive. They want to win.

+The last minute is very tense. Tom and Ben hold their breath. They hope their team will score.
+
+But then, the other team gets a penalty. The referee blows his whistle. The other team's player walks to the ball. He is ready to shoot.
+
+Tom and Ben are angry. They think the referee is wrong. They think the penalty is unfair. They yell and wave and point.
+
+The other team's player kicks the ball. The ball flies to the goal. The goalkeeper tries to stop it. But he is too late. The ball goes in. The other team scores. The game is over. The other team wins.
+
+Tom and Ben are very angry. They cry and scream and stamp. They are very unhappy.
+
+They look at each other. They blame each other. They say it is the other's fault. They say mean things. They start to fight.
+
+Tom slaps Ben. Ben slaps Tom. They push and pull and hit. They hurt each other.
+
+Their mom sees them. She is shocked. She runs to them. She stops them. She scolds them. She says they are naughty. She says they should not fight. She says they should be nice. She says they should love each other.
+
+Tom and Ben are ashamed. They are sorry. They hug each other. They say they are sorry. They say they love each other.
+

+Tom and Ben nod. They agree. They hold hands. They walk to the car. They are happy. They are brothers.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play near the lake. One day, they see a kayak on the shore. It is red and shiny.
+
+"Wow, look at that kayak!" Lily says. "Can we try it?"
+
+"I don't know," Ben says. "It looks big and scary. What if we fall in the water?"
+
+"Don't be afraid," Lily says. "It will be fun. I will offer you my hand and help you get in."
+
+Lily climbs into the kayak. She sits in the front. She offers her hand to Ben. Ben hesitates. He looks at the water. It is deep and cold.
+
+"Come on, Ben," Lily says. "It is comfortable in here. See, I have a paddle. We can go fast and see the ducks."
+
+Ben takes a deep breath. He grabs Lily's hand. He tries to get into the kayak. But he slips and falls. He splashes into the water. He screams.
+
+"Help, help!" Ben cries. "I'm wet and cold!"
+
+Lily drops the paddle. She reaches for Ben. She pulls him into the kayak. She hugs him.
+
+"It's okay, Ben," Lily says. "You are safe now. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you."
+
+Ben shivers. He is wet and cold. He is also angry.
+
+"That was not fun, Lily," Ben says. "That was mean. You made me fall in the water. I don't want to play with you anymore."
+
+Lily feels sad. She didn't want to hurt Ben. She wanted to share the kayak with him. She wanted to have fun with him.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," Lily says. "Please don't be mad at me. I'm your friend. Can we still be friends?"
+
+Ben looks at Lily. He sees her sad face. He remembers that she helped him. He remembers that she hugged him. He feels a little better.
+
+"Okay, Lily," Ben says. "We can still be friends. But I don't like the kayak. Can we go back to the shore?"
+
+Lily nods. She picks up the paddle. She paddles the kayak back to the shore. They get out of the kayak. They dry themselves with a towel. They smile at each other.
+
+"Let's go play something else," Lily says.
+
+"Okay," Ben says. "But no more kayaks."
+
+They laugh. They hold hands. They run to the sandbox. They are friends again.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big cake on a table. It looks yummy. They want to taste it.
+
+They run to the table and take a bite. But the cake is not yummy. It is dirty. It has mud and grass and bugs on it. Tom and Mia spit out the cake. They feel sick. They say "yuck" and "eww".
+
+A lady comes to the table. She is angry. She says "What are you doing? That is not a cake. That is a dirt pie. I made it for a joke. You are naughty. Go away."
+
+Tom and Mia are sorry. They say "sorry" and "bye". They run away from the table. They do not want to taste the dirt pie again. They want to stay away from it. They want to play with something else. They learn a lesson. They do not take things that are not theirs. They do not eat things that look dirty.
+Lily likes numbers. She likes to count her toys, her fingers, and the stars. She has a book with numbers and pictures. She can say one, two, three, four, and five.
+
+But six is difficult. Lily does not know how to say six. She tries to copy the book, but it sounds wrong. She asks her mom, but mom is busy. She asks her dad, but dad is on the phone. She asks her cat, but cat does not talk.
+
+Lily is sad. She wants to learn six. She thinks six is a nice number. She sees six flowers in the garden. She sees six birds in the sky. She sees six cookies on the plate.
+
+Then, Lily has an idea. She takes her book and goes to her brother. Her brother is older. He knows many numbers. He likes to help Lily. He sees her book and smiles.
+
+He says, "Do you want to learn six?" Lily nods. He says, "Six is easy. Just say sss-ix. Sss-ix. Can you say sss-ix?" Lily tries. She says, "Sss-ix. Sss-ix. Sss-ix." She says it loud and clear.
+
+Lily is happy. She can say six. She thanks her brother. She hugs her book. She runs to show mom and dad and cat. She says, "Look, I can say six. Six is not difficult. Six is fun."
+Lily liked to draw with her pen. Her pen was black and made nice lines on paper. She drew flowers, stars, and animals. She was happy when she drew.
+
+One day, she went to play with her friend Ben. Ben had many pens of different colors. He had red, blue, yellow, and green pens. He showed Lily his pens and said, "Look at my pens. They are better than yours. You only have one pen and it is black. Black is boring. You should have more pens like me."
+
+Lily felt sad. She liked her pen, but she thought Ben was right. She wanted to have more pens and more colors. She asked Ben, "Can I use your pens? I want to draw with them."
+
+Ben said, "No, you can't. They are mine. You can only use your pen. Go away." He was mean to Lily.
+
+Lily was hurt. She ran away from Ben and cried. She went to her mom and told her what happened. Her mom hugged her and said, "Don't cry, Lily. Your pen is special. It is not boring. It is black, and black can make many things. You can draw anything you want with your pen. You can draw the night sky, the moon, the shadows, the eyes, the hair, and many more. Your pen is a magic pen. It can show your imagination. You don't need more pens. You only need your pen and your paper. And you need a good friend who likes you and your pen."
+
+Lily smiled. She felt better. She said, "Thank you, mom. You are right. My pen is a magic pen. I like my pen. And I don't like Ben. He is not a good friend. He is mean and selfish. I don't want to play with him anymore. I want to play with someone who is nice and kind."
+
+Her mom said, "That's a good choice, Lily. I'm proud of you. Now, why don't you show me what you can draw with your pen?"
+
+Lily nodded. She took her pen and her paper and started to draw. She drew a beautiful picture of her mom and her. She showed her mom and said, "Look, mom. This is you and me. We are happy. I love you, mom."
+
+Her mom smiled. She said, "I love you too, Lily. And I love your picture. It is wonderful. You are a great artist. You have a magic pen and a big heart."
+Ben and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the field near their house. The field had many flowers and bugs and birds. They had fun running and jumping and finding new things.
+
+One day, they saw a big hole in the fence. They wondered what was on the other side. Ben said, "Let's go and see." Lily said, "But we don't belong there. Mom and Dad said to stay in the field." Ben said, "Don't be scared. It will be fun. Come on." He crawled through the hole. Lily followed him.
+
+They found a big road with many cars and trucks and buses. They had never seen so many before. They were loud and fast and scary. Ben and Lily were frightened. They wanted to go back to the field. But they could not find the hole in the fence. They were lost.
+
+They saw a man in a blue uniform. He had a badge and a hat and a whistle. He looked kind. Ben said, "Excuse me, sir. Can you help us? We are lost. We belong in the field." The man smiled and said, "Of course, I can help you. I am a policeman. I will take you back to the field. Don't worry. You are safe with me." He took their hands and led them to the hole in the fence. He said, "Here you are. This is your field. Stay here and don't go to the road again. It is dangerous. Do you understand?" Ben and Lily nodded and said, "Yes, sir. Thank you, sir." They crawled through the hole and ran to the field. They hugged each other and said, "We are glad we are back. We are sorry we left. We love our field. It is where we belong."
+Lily and Ben were playing with cards. They liked to make piles of cards and knock them down. They also liked to look at the pictures on the cards. Some cards had animals, some had numbers, some had shapes.
+
+One day, they found a weird card. It was bigger than the other cards, and it had no pictures. It was all black, with some white dots. Lily and Ben did not know what it was.
+
+"Look, Ben, a weird card!" Lily said. "What do you think it is?"
+
+"I don't know, Lily. Maybe it is a magic card. Maybe it can do something cool." Ben said.
+
+They decided to try the card. They put it on the floor and sat around it. They waited for something to happen. But nothing happened. The card just lay there, black and white.
+
+Lily and Ben got bored. They wanted to play with the other cards. They tried to pick up the weird card, but it was stuck to the floor. They pulled and pulled, but it did not move.
+
+"Uh-oh, Ben, we can't get the card off the floor!" Lily said. "What do we do?"
+
+"I don't know, Lily. Maybe we should ask for help." Ben said.
+
+They ran to find their mom. They told her about the weird card. She followed them to the playroom. She saw the card on the floor. She smiled.
+
+"That's not a card, Lily and Ben. That's a sticker. You peeled it off a book and stuck it on the floor. That's why you can't get it off." She said.
+
+She got a wet cloth and rubbed the sticker off the floor. She gave the sticker to Lily and Ben.
+
+"Here, you can keep the sticker. But next time, be careful where you stick it. And don't play with things you don't know. They might not be what they seem." She said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They said sorry to their mom. They learned their lesson. They put the sticker on a paper and drew around it. They made a new picture with the weird card. They had fun with the other cards. They were happy.
+Lily and Max were playing in the living room. They saw a big box with shiny things inside. They opened the box and found many ornaments. They were round, starry, and sparkly. They liked the ornaments very much.
+
+"Let's hang them on the tree!" Lily said. She took a red ornament and put it on a branch.
+
+"Let's record them too!" Max said. He took a camera and pressed a button. He wanted to show the ornaments to Mom and Dad.
+
+But then, they heard a loud noise. It was the cat. The cat jumped on the tree and tried to catch the ornaments. The tree shook and some ornaments fell down. They broke into pieces.
+
+"Stop, cat, stop!" Lily and Max shouted. They ran to the tree and tried to save the ornaments. But the cat was too fast and too naughty. He knocked down more ornaments and made a big mess.
+
+Lily and Max were very sad. They loved the ornaments. They wanted to make the tree cheerful. They wanted to record a nice video. But now the ornaments were gone and the video was bad.
+
+They heard the door open. It was Mom and Dad. They saw the living room and the broken ornaments. They saw the cat and the camera. They saw Lily and Max and their tears.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom asked.
+
+"The cat did it!" Lily and Max said.
+
+Mom and Dad hugged them and said, "It's okay. We can get new ornaments. We can fix the tree. We can record a better video. We are still cheerful because we have you."
+
+Lily and Max smiled and said, "We love you, Mom and Dad."
+
+They all cleaned up the mess and decorated the tree again. They recorded a new video and sang a song. They were cheerful and happy. The cat was sorry and cuddled with them. They had a good day.
+Anna likes to help Mommy in the kitchen. She likes to wash the dishes and put them away. But today, she drops a dish and it breaks. She hears a loud noise and sees pieces of the dish on the floor. She feels sad and scared.
+
+Mommy comes and sees the mess. She is not angry. She hugs Anna and says, "It's okay, sweetie. Accidents happen. We can replace the dish. But we have to be careful with the pieces. They can hurt you." She gets a broom and a dustpan and sweeps the pieces into the trash.
+
+Then, Mommy and Anna wash the other dishes and put them away. They sing a song and make funny faces. Anna feels happy again. She says, "I'm sorry, Mommy. I didn't mean to break the dish."

+
+The dolls do not answer, because they are not real. But Sara does not know that. She thinks they are just shy. She says, "Don't worry, they are very nice. They will share their toys and cookies with you. Let's make some room for them on the table."
+
+Sara takes the magazine and cuts out the pictures of the dolls and toys. She puts them on the table with her dolls. She says, "Hello, welcome to our tea party. I am Sara and these are my dolls. What are your names?"

+
+The pictures do not answer, because they are not real. But Sara does not know that. She thinks they are just unhappy. She says, "Don't worry, I will make you feel better. I will dry you with a towel and give you a hug."
+
+Sara takes a towel and rubs the pictures with it. The towel makes the pictures tear and crumble. The pieces fall on the floor. The pictures are gone. Sara is very sad and angry. She says, "Oh no, what did I do? You are gone. I am sorry. I did not mean to hurt you. I just wanted to be your friend."
+
+The dolls do not answer, because they are not real. But Sara does not know that. She thinks they are just silent. She says, "Please, talk to me. Please, come back. Please, forgive me."
+
+But the pictures do not come back, because they are not real. And Sara cries, because she does not understand.

+
+She asks her mom, "Can I have some of the rabbit cereal, please?" Her mom says, "Sure, honey. But be careful, this cereal is very springy. It might jump out of your bowl." Sara thinks that sounds fun. She pours some of the cereal into her bowl and adds some milk.
+
+She takes a spoonful of the cereal and puts it in her mouth. She feels something bounce on her tongue. She opens her mouth and sees a tiny rabbit hopping on her plate. She is surprised and delighted. She says, "Look, mom, a rabbit!"

+"Look, Lily, I have a screw!" Ben said, showing her his toy. "It is shiny and hard. What do you have?"
+
+"I have a doll," Lily said, holding her toy. "She is soft and pretty. She has hair and eyes and a mouth."

+
+"Yes, please, dad," Ben and Lily said together. They climbed on the chairs and waited for their dad to pour them some juice. They drank it and felt happy. They thanked their dad and gave him a hug.
+
+"Can we go back to play, dad?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, but be nice to each other, okay?" their dad said. "And don't play with screws. They are not toys. They can hurt you or break something."
+
+"Okay, dad," Ben and Lily said. They took their toys and went back to the living room. They played nicely and shared their toys. They had a lot of fun.
+Jill and Tom are playing with their toys. Jill has a model of a big red car. Tom has a model of a blue plane. They like to make noises and pretend they are driving and flying.
+
+"Look at my car, it is so fast and shiny!" Jill says, leaning her model on the sofa. "It can go zoom, zoom, zoom!"

+
+They start to argue about whose toy is better. They do not want to share or play together. They make loud and angry sounds.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She sees them fighting over their toys. She is not happy.
+
+"Jill, Tom, stop that right now!" Mom says. "You are being rude and mean. You should be nice and kind. You should share and play together. Why don't you try to swap your toys and see how they are?"
+
+Jill and Tom do not like this idea. They do not want to give up their toys. They think their toys are the best.
+
+"No, I want my car!" Jill says.
+
+"No, I want my plane!" Tom says.
+
+Mom sighs. She has an idea. She goes to the kitchen and comes back with a plate of cookies. They smell delicious. They are warm and sweet and have chocolate chips.
+
+"Look what I have!" Mom says. "Some yummy cookies for you. But you can only have one if you swap your toys and play nicely. Do you want a cookie?"
+
+Jill and Tom look at the cookies. They look very good. They want a cookie. They think for a moment. They decide to try Mom's idea.
+
+"OK, I will swap my car for your plane," Jill says.
+
+"OK, I will swap my plane for your car," Tom says.
+
+They give each other their toys. They say thank you and sorry. They start to play with their new toys. They make different noises and pretend they are flying and driving.
+
+Mom smiles. She gives them each a cookie. They take a bite. They say mmm and yum. They are happy.
+
+The end.
+Ben and Lily were best friends. They liked to play with their toys in the garden. One day, they found a ball in the grass. It was red and shiny and bounced high.
+
+"Let's play with the ball!" Ben said.
+
+"OK!" Lily said.
+
+They took turns to throw the ball to each other. They laughed and had fun. But then, Ben threw the ball too hard. It flew over the fence and landed in the neighbor's yard.
+
+"Oh no!" Ben said. "The ball is gone!"
+
+Lily ran to the fence and looked. She saw a big dog in the yard. The dog saw the ball and ran to it. It picked up the ball in its mouth and growled.
+
+"Give us our ball back!" Lily shouted.
+
+The dog barked and shook its head. It did not want to give the ball back. It liked the ball. It was its new toy.
+
+Ben and Lily were sad and angry. They wanted their ball back. They tried to climb the fence, but it was too high. They tried to call the neighbor, but no one answered. They did not know what to do.
+
+Then, they heard a voice behind them.
+
+"Hey, kids, what's the problem?" It was Sam, the mailman. He was walking by with his bag of letters.
+
+"Mr. Sam, please help us!" Ben said. "The dog took our ball and won't give it back!"
+
+Sam looked at the dog and the ball. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, kids, I know that dog. His name is Rex. He is very loyal to his owner, but he also likes to play. Maybe we can make a deal with him."
+
+Sam took a bone from his bag and showed it to Rex. Rex saw the bone and wagged his tail. He dropped the ball and ran to the fence. He sniffed the bone and licked his lips.
+
+"Good boy, Rex," Sam said. "How about we trade? You give me the ball, and I give you the bone. Deal?"
+
+Rex nodded and barked. He pushed the ball under the fence and took the bone from Sam. He ran back to his house and chewed the bone happily.
+
+Sam gave the ball to Ben and Lily. They thanked him and hugged him.
+
+"Thank you, Mr. Sam, you are the best!" Ben said.
+
+"Yes, thank you, Mr. Sam, you are very kind!" Lily said.
+
+Sam smiled and said, "You're welcome, kids. I'm glad I could help. Now, go and have fun with your ball. And remember, be careful when you throw it. You don't want to lose it again."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and said, "We will, Mr. Sam, we will."
+
+They ran back to their garden and played with their ball. They were happy and grateful. They learned a lesson. They also learned that Rex was not a bad dog. He was just a loyal and playful dog. Maybe one day, they could be friends with him too.
+Tom was a lonely boy. He had no friends at school. He liked to draw pictures on paper with his crayons. He drew cars, animals, and houses. He wished he had someone to play with and share his pictures.
+
+One day, a new girl came to his class. Her name was Lily. She had long brown hair and big blue eyes. She smiled at Tom and said hello. Tom felt happy. He wanted to be her friend.
+
+At recess, Tom ran to Lily and asked her if she wanted to see his pictures. Lily nodded and followed him to his backpack. Tom showed her his paper with his drawings. Lily looked at them and said they were very nice. Tom felt proud. He asked her if she wanted to draw with him. Lily said yes and took a crayon.
+
+They sat on the grass and drew on paper together. They drew flowers, stars, and hearts. They laughed and talked. Tom felt less lonely. He thought Lily was his friend.
+
+But then, a big boy came and snatched Tom's paper. He tore it into pieces and threw it in the air. He said Tom's pictures were ugly and stupid. He pushed Tom to the ground and laughed. Lily saw this and ran away. She did not help Tom or say anything. She was scared of the big boy. Tom felt sad and hurt. He cried and picked up the pieces of his paper. He had no friend. He was lonely again.
+Lila and Ben are brother and sister. They like to play with their toy soldiers and tanks. They pretend they are in a war and make loud noises. They have fun, but they also make a big mess.
+
+One day, their mom comes home and sees the dirt and toys everywhere. She is not happy. She says, "Lila and Ben, you need to bathe and clean up this room. War is not a game. It is bad and sad. You should be kind and gentle."
+
+Lila and Ben feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, mom. We did not mean to upset you. We will bathe and clean up right away." They go to the bathroom and fill the tub with water and bubbles. They take off their clothes and get in.
+
+They splash and scrub each other with soap and shampoo. They laugh and sing. They are eager to be clean and make mom happy. They also think of ways to play without making a war. They decide to play with their dolls and cars instead.
+
+They dry themselves with towels and put on their pajamas. They pick up their toys and put them in the box. They make their beds and hug their mom. They say, "We love you, mom. We are sorry for the war. We will play nicely from now on." Mom smiles and kisses them. She says, "I love you, too, Lila and Ben. You are good children. Now, let's read a story and go to sleep." They snuggle with mom and listen to her voice. They feel happy and peaceful. They fall asleep and dream of sweet things.
+Ben and Sam were brothers who liked to play outside. One day, they found a big jar in the garage. It was full of shiny stones that sparkled in the sun. Ben and Sam thought they were very pretty and wanted to keep them.
+
+"Let's sell some of these stones and buy candy," Ben said. He was older and smarter than Sam.
+
+"No, I want to keep them all. They are mine," Sam said. He was younger and stubborn than Ben.
+
+They started to fight over the jar. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not see the dark clouds in the sky. They did not hear the thunder.
+
+Suddenly, a bright flash of lightning struck the jar. It broke into pieces and the stones flew everywhere. Ben and Sam fell to the ground. They were scared and hurt. They cried and hugged each other.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. I was greedy and mean," Sam said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sam. I was bossy and selfish," Ben said.
+
+They looked at the stones. They were not shiny anymore. They were black and dull. They realized they were not precious. They were just glass.
+
+They felt miserable. They had lost their jar, their stones, and their candy. They had also hurt their feelings.
+
+They decided to go inside and say sorry to their mom. They hoped she would make them feel better. They learned a lesson. They learned that playing together was more fun than fighting over things.
+Lily wanted a new doll. She saw one in the shop window that had long hair and a pretty dress. She asked her mom if they could buy it.
+
+"Sorry, Lily, we can't buy that doll. It is too expensive. We need to save money for your brother's operation. He has a bad heart and needs a doctor to fix it." Mom said.
+
+Lily felt sad. She loved her brother and wanted him to be well. But she also wanted the doll. She thought it was not fair. She asked her mom, "Why is the operation so expensive? Why can't the doctor do it for free?"
+
+Mom hugged Lily and said, "The operation is expensive because it is very hard and needs a lot of special things. The doctor is very kind and wants to help your brother, but he also needs money to pay for his own things. He can't do it for free."
+
+Lily thought for a while. She decided she did not need the doll. She wanted her brother to be happy and healthy more. She said to her mom, "OK, mom, I understand. I don't want the doll anymore. I want to help my brother. Can I give him a hug and a kiss?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Of course, Lily. You are a very good sister. Your brother will be very happy to see you. Let's go home and visit him." They walked away from the shop, holding hands. Lily felt proud and hopeful. She prayed for her brother's operation to go well.
+Ben and Mia like to play on the swings. They push each other and go high in the air. They laugh and shout and have fun.
+
+One day, they see a new thing in the park. It is a big round thing that spins. It has seats and bars and colors. Ben and Mia want to try it.
+
+They run to the thing and sit on a seat. They hold the bars and wait. A man comes and pushes a button. The thing starts to spin. Ben and Mia feel the wind in their hair. They smile and wave.
+
+The thing spins faster and faster. Ben and Mia feel their heads go round and round. They start to feel dizzy. They want to stop. They call the man, but he does not hear them.
+
+The thing spins for a long time. Ben and Mia feel sick. They close their eyes and hold on tight. They hope the thing will stop soon. They do not like it anymore. They miss the swings.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to spin on the round thing. It was fun to go fast and feel dizzy. But it was also very hot. The sun was shining and the metal was warm.
+
+"Let's go get some water," Lily said. "I'm thirsty and hot."
+
+"No, I want to spin more," Tom said. He was careless. He did not listen to Lily. He did not care about the sun or the water.
+
+Lily went to the fountain. She drank some water and felt better. She looked for Tom. She saw him spinning on the round thing. He was spinning too fast. He was not holding on. He flew off the round thing and hit the ground. He hurt his head and his arm. He cried very loud.
+
+Lily ran to Tom. She was scared and sad. She tried to help him. She called for a grown-up. A grown-up came and took Tom to the doctor. Lily wished Tom had listened to her. She wished he had not been careless. She hoped he would be okay.
+Tom is a big boy who goes to school. He likes to learn new things and play with his friends. But he also misses his dad, who works far away. His dad sends him letters and pictures, but Tom wants to hug him and hear his voice.
+
+One day, Tom's mom tells him that his dad is coming home soon. Tom is very happy and excited. He wants to make a surprise for his dad. He finds a tie in his dad's closet. It is blue and red, his dad's favorite colors. It is also rough, like his dad's beard. Tom thinks his dad will like it.
+
+He takes the tie and some scissors and glue. He cuts the tie into small pieces. He glues them on a big paper. He makes a picture of his dad and him. He writes "I miss you, dad" with his crayons. He is very proud of his picture. He puts it on the fridge with a magnet.
+
+When his dad comes home, he sees the picture. He smiles and hugs Tom. He says, "Thank you, Tom. This is the best gift ever. I miss you too, son. I love you very much." Tom feels warm and happy. He says, "I love you too, dad. Welcome home." They go to the couch and cuddle. Tom shows his dad his school books and his toys. His dad tells him stories about his work and his travels. They have a lot of fun. Tom is glad his dad is home. He does not miss him anymore. He has his tie picture to remember him.
+Ben and Mia are playing in the garden. They have a big pool of water and some toys. They splash and laugh and have fun.
+
+But then Ben sees a big red ball on the other side of the fence. He wants to play with it. He climbs over the fence and runs to the ball. He does not ask Mia if she wants to come.
+
+Mia is sad. She does not have Ben to play with. She does not have the ball. She is alone in the pool. She cries.
+
+A lady sees Mia crying. She lives in the house next to the garden. She comes to the fence and says, "Hello, little girl. Why are you crying?"
+
+Mia says, "Ben left me. He took the ball. I have no one to play with."
+
+The lady says, "That is not nice of Ben. He should share with you. Do you want to come to my house? I have some cookies and milk. And a towel to dry you."
+
+Mia nods. She likes cookies and milk. And she is wet and cold. The lady offers her hand. Mia takes it. They walk to the house.
+
+Ben comes back to the garden. He sees the pool is empty. He sees the lady and Mia walking away. He feels bad. He did not mean to make Mia sad. He drops the ball and runs after them. He says, "Mia, wait! I'm sorry. I want to play with you. Can I have some cookies and milk too?"
+
+The lady smiles. She says, "Of course you can. But first, you have to say sorry to Mia. And share the ball with her."
+
+Ben says, "I'm sorry, Mia. I was selfish. Will you forgive me? And play with me?"
+
+Mia says, "I forgive you, Ben. And I will play with you. But you have to be nice to me. And to the lady. She is very kind."
+
+The lady says, "You are very sweet, Mia. And you are very brave, Ben. Come on, let's go to my house. I have a big towel for you. And some cookies and milk. And maybe some other toys to play with."
+
+Ben and Mia smile. They hug the lady. They hug each other. They are happy. They have a new friend. And they have learned to share.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers. They saw a big, green snake under a bush. Lila wanted to touch it, but Ben said no.
+
+"Snake is bad," Ben said. "Snake can bite. Snake has poison."
+
+Lila did not listen. She was not patient. She ran to the snake and tried to grab it. The snake was angry. It turned around and squeezed Lila's hand. Lila screamed and let go.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Lila cried. "Snake hurt me!"
+
+Ben ran to Lila and hugged her. He saw a red mark on her hand. He was scared. He called for help.
+
+"Mama, mama!" Ben shouted. "Lila has poison!"
+
+Mama heard Ben and came to the garden. She saw Lila and the snake. She was worried. She took Lila in her arms and ran to the car.
+
+"We have to go to the doctor," Mama said. "The doctor can help Lila."
+
+Lila was still crying. She was sorry. She learned a lesson. She should have listened to Ben. She should not have touched the snake. She should have been patient.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play outside. But today it is raining. They are sad.
+
+"Let's go to the mill," Tim says. "We can see the big wheel and the water."
+
+"OK," Sam says. "But we have to be careful. The mill is old and dark."
+
+They put on their boots and coats. They run to the mill. They see the big wheel. It is smooth and round. It turns slowly in the water.
+
+"Wow," Tim says. "It is so big and shiny."
+
+He wants to touch it. He goes closer to the wheel. He reaches out his hand.
+
+"Tim, no!" Sam shouts. "It is dangerous. The wheel can hurt you."
+
+But Tim does not listen. He touches the wheel. It is wet and cold. He feels a push. He falls into the water.
+
+"Help!" Tim cries. "I can't swim."
+
+Sam is scared. He runs to the mill. He sees a rope. He throws it to Tim.
+
+"Grab it!" Sam says. "I will pull you out."
+
+Tim grabs the rope. Sam pulls him out. He is wet and cold. He is sorry.
+
+"Thank you, Sam," Tim says. "You are a good friend. I was silly. I should have listened to you."
+
+"It's OK, Tim," Sam says. "I am glad you are safe. Let's go home. We can play inside. We can have hot chocolate and cookies."
+
+They hug. They go home. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing on the shore. They liked to build sand castles and look for shells. They saw a big boat on the water. It had a flag with a lion on it.
+
+"Look, Lily, a lion boat!" Tom said.
+
+"Can we go see it?" Lily asked.
+
+Tom nodded. He took Lily's hand and they ran to the water. They wanted to get closer to the boat.
+
+But the boat was not nice. It was a bad boat. It had men with guns and swords. They wanted to take things from the shore. They saw Tom and Lily and shouted.
+
+"Hey, you, stop!" one of them said.
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They tried to run back to the shore. But the water was deep and fast. They could not swim well.
+
+"Help, help!" they cried.
+
+The lion boat roared. It had a big cannon. It fired a ball of fire at the shore. It hit Tom and Lily's sand castle. It made a loud boom and a lot of smoke.
+
+Tom and Lily were hurt. They fell into the water. They could not breathe. They could not see. They could not hear.
+
+The bad men laughed. They took their boat away. They did not care about Tom and Lily.
+
+Tom and Lily did not play on the shore anymore. They did not see their mom and dad anymore. They did not have fun anymore. They were gone.
+Ben and Lily went to the sea with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. They saw a big boat with people on it. The people had nets and hooks. They wanted to catch fish and dolphins.
+
+Ben and Lily saw a dolphin jump out of the water. It was gray and shiny. It had a long nose and a big tail. It made a funny sound. "Look, a dolphin!" Ben said. "It is so pretty!" Lily said. They waved at the dolphin.
+
+The dolphin saw Ben and Lily. It was curious and friendly. It swam closer to them. It wanted to play. It teased them by splashing water at them. It made them laugh. It let them touch its nose and tail. It was soft and smooth. It was harmless.
+
+The people on the boat saw the dolphin too. They wanted to catch it. They threw a net at it. They tried to pull it in. The dolphin was scared and sad. It did not want to go with them. It wanted to stay with Ben and Lily.
+
+Ben and Lily saw the people. They were angry and scared too. They did not want the people to take the dolphin. They shouted at them. "Stop! Leave the dolphin alone! It is our friend!" They ran to the water. They tried to help the dolphin.
+
+The mom and dad saw Ben and Lily. They were worried and brave. They followed them. They helped them. They talked to the people. They told them to let the dolphin go. They said the dolphin was harmless and smart. They said the dolphin had a family and friends. They said the dolphin deserved to be free.
+
+The people listened to the mom and dad. They saw Ben and Lily. They saw the dolphin. They felt sorry and ashamed. They let the dolphin go. They said they were sorry. They said they would not do it again. They said they would be kind to dolphins.
+
+The dolphin was happy and grateful. It thanked Ben and Lily. It thanked the mom and dad. It said goodbye. It jumped out of the water. It made a funny sound. It waved its tail. It swam away.
+
+Ben and Lily were happy and proud. They hugged the mom and dad. They said they loved the dolphin. They said they would remember it. They said they would protect it. They smiled.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the park. They have a big bag of pink seeds. They want to scatter them on the grass and make flowers grow.
+
+"Look, Ben, this is how you do it," Sara says. She takes a handful of seeds and throws them in the air. The seeds fall like rain on the green grass. "It's fun!"
+
+Ben tries to do the same. He grabs some seeds and tosses them up. But he throws them too hard. The seeds fly over the fence and land on the road. A bright yellow car comes and runs over them. The seeds pop and crackle.
+
+"Oh no, Ben, you wasted the seeds!" Sara cries. "Now we can't make flowers!"
+
+Ben feels sad. He says sorry to Sara. He looks at the bag. There are still some seeds left. He has an idea.
+
+"Come on, Sara, let's go to the other side of the park. There is a big tree there. Maybe we can scatter the seeds under the tree and make a secret garden!"
+
+Sara smiles. She likes the idea. She takes Ben's hand and they run to the tree. They scatter the seeds around the trunk and hope they will grow. They imagine how pretty the tree will look with pink flowers.
+
+The end.
+Tom and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw many pigeons on the grass. Tom wanted to feed them some bread. He took a piece from Mom's bag and threw it to the pigeons.
+
+"Look, Lily, the pigeons are eating the bread!" Tom said.
+
+Lily nodded. She liked the pigeons too. They were gray and white and had shiny eyes. They made cooing sounds. Lily wanted to touch them. She walked slowly to the pigeons.
+
+"Be careful, Lily, don't scare them," Mom said.
+
+Lily nodded again. She reached out her hand to a pigeon. The pigeon looked at her. Lily smiled. She was very close to the pigeon.
+
+But then, a big dog came running to the park. It was noisy and fast. It barked and chased the pigeons. The pigeons flew away in a hurry. They were scared of the dog.
+
+Lily was scared too. She cried. She wanted the pigeon to come back. She did not like the dog.
+
+Tom ran to Lily and hugged her. He was scared too. He did not like the dog either.
+
+"Shoo, shoo, go away, dog!" Tom shouted.
+
+Mom came to Tom and Lily and comforted them. She was angry at the dog's owner. He did not have a leash on the dog. He did not care about the pigeons or the children.
+
+"Sorry, sorry, he is just playful, he won't hurt anyone," the owner said.
+
+But Mom did not believe him. She told him to put a leash on the dog and to leave the park. She said he was rude and irresponsible.
+
+The owner took the dog and left. He was ashamed and sorry.
+
+Mom, Tom and Lily sat on a bench and ate some bread. They waited for the pigeons to come back. They hoped the pigeons were not hurt.
+
+After a while, the pigeons came back. They landed on the grass and ate the bread. They cooed again. They were not scared anymore.
+
+Tom and Lily smiled. They were happy to see the pigeons again. They waved to them and said sorry for the dog.
+
+Mom smiled too. She was proud of Tom and Lily. They were kind and gentle to the pigeons. They learned to respect and protect the animals.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be kind and gentle to animals. They have feelings too. Don't let noisy and fast things scare them. Respect and protect them.
+Anna and Ben are going to a hotel with their mom and dad. They are very excited. They want to see the big bed, the TV, and the pool. They pack their toys, their books, and their pajamas in their bags.
+
+When they get to the hotel, they have to wait in a line. Anna and Ben are bored. They start to play a game. They test each other on animal sounds. Anna says, "What does a cow say?" Ben says, "Moo!" Ben says, "What does a cat say?" Anna says, "Meow!" They have fun.
+
+But then, a man behind them gets angry. He says, "Shh! You are too loud! Stop making noise!" Anna and Ben are scared. They look at their mom and dad. Their mom and dad say, "Sorry, sir. They are just playing. They are not hurting anyone." The man says, "Well, they are hurting my ears! They should be quiet in a hotel!"
+
+Anna and Ben feel sad. They stop playing. They hug their mom and dad. They say, "We are sorry, mom and dad. We did not mean to be bad." Their mom and dad say, "It's okay, sweeties. You are not bad. You are just curious and happy. The man is just grumpy and rude. Don't mind him."
+
+Soon, they get their room key. They go to their room. It is very nice. It has a big bed, a TV, and a window. Anna and Ben jump on the bed. They turn on the TV. They look out the window. They see the pool. They say, "Wow! This is the best hotel ever!" Their mom and dad say, "We are glad you like it. But now, it is time to sleep. You are very sleepy. You need to rest for tomorrow." Anna and Ben say, "Okay, mom and dad. We love you. Good night." They put on their pajamas. They cuddle with their toys. They close their eyes. They fall asleep. They dream of the pool.

+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big box under a tree. It was brown and had a red ribbon on it.
+
+"Wow, what is that?" Sara asked.
+
+"Maybe it is a present for someone," Ben said.
+
+They ran to the box and tried to lift it. It was very heavy.
+
+"Who do you think it is for?" Sara wondered.
+
+"Let's open it and see," Ben suggested.
+
+They pulled the ribbon and opened the box. Inside, they saw a lot of shiny things. There were necklaces, bracelets, rings, and earrings. They sparkled in the sun.
+
+"Wow, these are so pretty!" Sara exclaimed.
+
+"Maybe they are jewels," Ben said.
+
+They picked up some of the shiny things and put them on. They felt like princes and princesses.
+
+"Where do you think they came from?" Sara asked.
+
+"Maybe they belong to a mysterious person," Ben said.
+
+"Maybe they are magic," Sara said.
+
+They heard a loud voice behind them.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing with my stuff?" the voice said.
+
+They turned around and saw a man. He was angry and had a big beard. He was wearing a hat and a coat.
+
+"Who are you?" Ben asked.
+
+"I am the owner of these things. They are not jewels, they are fake. I sell them at the market. You have no right to touch them," the man said.
+
+He grabbed the box and put the shiny things back inside. He closed the box and tied the ribbon.
+
+"Sorry, we didn't know," Sara said.
+
+"We thought they were a present," Ben said.
+
+"Well, they are not. They are my work. Now go away and don't come back," the man said.
+
+He picked up the box and walked away.
+
+Sara and Ben felt sad and confused. They had learned a hard truth. The shiny things were not real and the mysterious person was not nice.
+
+They decided to go home and play with their own toys. They were not as shiny, but they were more fun.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the farm. They liked to see the animals and hear their sounds. They saw cows, horses, sheep and chickens. They also saw a big pig. The pig was pink and fat. It was sleeping in the mud.
+
+"Look, a big pig!" Lily said. "Can we touch it?"
+
+Ben shook his head. "No, we can't. The pig might bite us. And it is dirty."
+
+Lily nodded. She did not want to get bitten or dirty. But she wanted to hear the pig. She made a sound like a pig. "Oink, oink!"
+
+The pig heard Lily. It opened its eyes and looked at her. It recognized her sound. It made a sound back. "Oink, oink!"
+
+Lily and Ben laughed. They liked the pig. The pig liked them too. It got up and walked to them. It sniffed them with its nose. It was friendly.
+
+"Hello, big pig!" Lily said. "You are nice. What is your name?"
+
+The pig did not answer. It just oinked. Lily and Ben did not mind. They oinked back. They made friends with the big pig. They had fun in the farm.
+Tom loves hockey. He has a hockey stick and a puck. He likes to hit the puck with his stick and make goals. He plays hockey in his yard with his dad and his dog.
+
+One day, Tom wants to play hockey, but he cannot find his puck. He looks in his yard, but it is not there. He looks in his house, but it is not there. He looks in his car, but it is not there. He is sad. He asks his dad and his dog, but they do not know where it is.
+
+Tom is persistent. He does not give up. He keeps looking for his puck. He looks in his garage, but it is not there. He looks in his shed, but it is not there. He looks in his neighbor's yard, but it is not there. He is tired. He sits on his porch and thinks.
+
+Then, he hears a noise. He looks up and sees a bird. The bird has his puck in its beak. The bird flies away with his puck. Tom is surprised. He runs after the bird. He shouts, "Give me back my puck!"
+
+The bird flies over the park. Tom follows the bird. He sees other kids playing hockey in the park. They have a net and a goalie. The bird drops his puck in the net. The kids cheer. They think they made a goal.
+
+Tom runs to the net. He grabs his puck. He says, "This is my puck!" The kids are confused. They say, "Who are you?" Tom says, "I am Tom. I love hockey. Do you want to play with me?" The kids say, "Sure. You are persistent. You can join our team." Tom is happy. He makes new friends. He plays hockey with them. He has fun.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big swing. Lily wants to swing high. Ben wants to swing fast.
+
+"Can I go first?" Lily asks.
+
+"OK, but only for a little bit," Ben says.
+
+Lily climbs on the swing. She holds the ropes tight. She kicks her legs. The swing goes up and down. Lily feels happy.
+
+"Look at me, Ben! I am swinging high!" Lily shouts.
+
+Ben watches Lily. He sees a navy plane in the sky. The plane makes a loud noise. Ben likes planes. He wants to be a pilot.
+

+
+Lily looks at the plane. She thinks it is pretty. She likes the color. She wants to see more.
+
+"Can we go closer, Ben? I want to see the plane better," Lily says.
+
+Ben nods. He helps Lily get off the swing. They run to the fence. They see the plane fly over the park. They wave and smile. They have fun.
+Ben and Mia were very happy to visit their grandma in Australia. They had a long trip on a big plane, and they were tired and hungry. But when they got to grandma's house, they saw something amazing. There was a kangaroo in the garden!
+
+"Look, look, a kangaroo!" Ben shouted, pointing at the furry animal.
+
+"Wow, it's so big and cute!" Mia said, clapping her hands.
+
+They ran to the garden, but the kangaroo was shy. It hopped away from them, and hid behind a tree.
+
+"Come here, kangaroo, we won't hurt you," Ben said softly.
+
+"Maybe it's scared of us," Mia said. "We are strangers."
+
+Grandma came out of the house, carrying a basket of fruit. She smiled and said, "Hello, my darlings, welcome to Australia. That's Joey, he's a friendly kangaroo. He likes to visit me sometimes, and I give him some apples and carrots. Do you want to feed him?"
+
+"Yes, yes, please!" Ben and Mia said.
+
+Grandma gave them some fruit, and showed them how to hold their hands flat and still. Then they walked slowly to the tree, and called Joey's name. Joey peeked out, and saw the fruit. He sniffed the air, and decided to trust them. He hopped out of his hiding place, and came closer to them. He took the fruit from their hands, and ate it with a crunch. He licked his lips, and looked at them with his big brown eyes.
+
+Ben and Mia giggled, and stroked his soft fur. Joey liked their touch, and leaned his head against them. He made a low noise, like a purr.
+
+"He's saying thank you," Grandma said. "He likes you. You are very gentle and kind."
+
+Ben and Mia felt very happy and proud. They had made a new friend. They hugged Joey, and said, "We like you too, Joey. You are very peaceful and sweet."
+
+They played with Joey for a while, until it was time to go inside. They said goodbye to Joey, and promised to come back tomorrow. Then they followed Grandma to the house, where she had prepared a delicious dinner for them. They ate and talked, and then they went to their room, where they had to unpack their bags. They found their pajamas, their toothbrushes, and their teddy bears. They put them on their beds, and got ready for sleep. They were very tired, but very happy. They had a wonderful day, and they couldn't wait for tomorrow. They snuggled with their teddy bears, and closed their eyes. They dreamed of kangaroos, and fruit, and grandma. They felt very peaceful and safe.
+Anna and Ben were playing on the beach. They had a bucket and a spade. They wanted to make a big castle with sand. They worked hard and had fun. They made a tall tower, a wide wall and a small door.
+
+"Look at our castle!" Anna said. "It is the best castle ever!"
+
+Ben nodded. He was proud of their castle. He saw a shell on the sand. He picked it up and ran to the castle. He wanted to put the shell on the tower.
+
+But then he saw a big dog. The dog was running towards them. The dog looked friendly, but he was not gentle. He liked to dig and bury things. He saw the castle and thought it was a good place to dig.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Ben shouted. "This is our castle! Don't ruin it!"
+
+But the dog did not listen. He ran to the castle and started to dig. He dug a big hole in the wall. He dug another hole in the tower. He buried the shell and some sand in the hole. He wagged his tail and barked.
+
+Anna and Ben were sad and angry. They saw their castle falling apart. They tried to stop the dog, but he was too big and strong. They cried and yelled.
+
+A man came to the beach. He saw the dog and the children. He was the dog's owner. He called the dog and put a leash on him.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids," he said. "My dog didn't mean to hurt your castle. He just likes to dig and bury things. He doesn't know any better."
+
+He gave Anna and Ben a hug and a cookie. He helped them fix their castle. He put the shell back on the tower. He smoothed the sand and made the wall and the door again.
+
+"Thank you, mister," Anna said. "You are very nice."
+
+Ben nodded. He was still a bit mad, but he felt better. He learned that sometimes dogs and people make mistakes. He learned that it is good to forgive and help each other.
+
+They finished their castle and played some more. They had a good day on the beach.
+Tom likes to read books. He has many books with pictures and words. He likes to look at the pictures and say the words. He has a big book with a lock. The lock is shiny and has a key. Tom wants to open the lock and see what is inside the book.
+
+He looks for the key. He looks under his bed, in his toy box, in his closet. He cannot find the key. He is sad. He wants to see the book. He asks his mom for help. His mom says she does not know where the key is. She says maybe his dad knows.
+
+Tom waits for his dad to come home. He hugs his dad and asks him for the key. His dad smiles and says he has a surprise for him. He takes out the key from his pocket and gives it to Tom. Tom is happy. He runs to his room and opens the lock. He opens the book and sees many pages. The pages are hard and have different shapes and colors. He touches the pages and feels them. He likes the book. He says thank you to his dad and shows him the book. His dad says he is proud of him and reads him the book. Tom listens and learns new words. He loves his book and his dad.
+Tom and Anna liked to play in the woods near their home. They liked to look for animals and plants and make up stories about them. One day, they saw a big cage with a fox inside. The fox looked sad and scared. It had red fur and a long tail.
+
+"Look, a fox!" Tom said. "It is so pretty. Let's release it and play with it."
+
+"No, Tom, we can't," Anna said. "The fox is wild. It might bite us or run away. And maybe someone put it in the cage for a reason. We should leave it alone."
+
+But Tom did not listen to Anna. He wanted to be friends with the fox. He went to the cage and opened the door. The fox saw the opening and ran out. It was very fast.
+
+"Come back, fox!" Tom shouted. "I want to play with you!"
+
+Tom ran after the fox, but he could not catch it. He did not see where he was going. He ran into the dark part of the woods, where there were many thorns and rocks. He tripped and fell. He hurt his knee and his hand. He started to cry.
+
+"Tom, where are you?" Anna called. She was worried about Tom. She followed his voice and found him on the ground. She saw his blood and his tears. She hugged him and tried to comfort him.
+
+"I'm sorry, Anna," Tom said. "I was stupid. I should have listened to you. The fox did not want to play with me. It just wanted to be free."
+
+"It's okay, Tom," Anna said. "We all make mistakes. But we have to go home now. You need to see a doctor. Your wounds might get infected."
+
+Anna helped Tom to stand up. They walked back to the cage, but the fox was gone. They only saw its tracks in the dirt. They felt sad and sorry for the fox. They hoped it would find a safe place to live. They also hoped they would not get in trouble for releasing it. They learned a hard lesson that day.
+Tom and Lily went to the farm with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, like cows, pigs, chickens and horses. They liked to pet them and feed them. Then they saw a big sign that said "Maze". They wanted to try it.
+
+"Can we go to the maze, Mom?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sure, but we have to pay first. It costs two coins for each of us," Mom said.
+
+They gave the coins to the man at the gate. He gave them a map of the maze. He said, "Be careful, the maze is very big and tricky. You have to find the way out. If you get lost, you can call me and I will help you."
+
+Tom and Lily entered the maze. They followed the map and the arrows. They saw many twists and turns, and some dead ends. They had fun and laughed. They felt powerful, like they could solve any puzzle.
+
+But then they came to a crossroad. They did not know which way to go. The map was torn and the arrows were faded. They looked at each other and felt scared.
+
+"Which way should we go, Lily?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know, Tom. Maybe we should call the man," Lily said.
+
+They shouted, "Help! Help! We are lost in the maze!"
+
+The man heard them and came to them. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, kids. You are almost there. Just follow me and I will show you the way out."
+
+He led them to the exit. They saw Mom and Dad waiting for them. They hugged them and said, "We did it! We went through the maze!"
+
+Mom and Dad praised them and said, "You are very brave and smart. We are proud of you."
+
+They all went to the farm shop and bought some ice cream. They ate it and felt happy. They had a great day at the farm.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with toys in the garden. Tom has a new toy. It is a fan. The fan can make wind. Tom likes to make the fan blow on his face. He feels cool.
+
+Lily wants to play with the fan too. She asks Tom, "Can I have a turn with the fan?" Tom says, "No, it is my fan. You can play with something else." Lily feels sad. She thinks Tom is not nice.
+
+Lily sees a black cat in the garden. The cat is sleeping under a tree. Lily has an idea. She picks up a stick and walks to the cat. She says, "I will make the cat wake up. Then the cat will chase Tom. Tom will be scared. He will give me the fan."
+
+Lily pokes the cat with the stick. The cat opens its eyes. It sees Lily. It does not like Lily. It hisses and scratches Lily's hand. Lily drops the stick and cries. She runs to Tom. She says, "The cat hurt me. It is a bad cat."
+
+Tom hears Lily cry. He feels sorry for Lily. He knows he was not nice to Lily. He says, "I am sorry, Lily. I will share the fan with you. The fan is for both of us. Come, I will help you with your hand." Tom and Lily hug. They are friends again. They play with the fan and the cat. They are happy.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They saw a big dog with a ball. The dog was nice and friendly. He wagged his tail and barked.
+
+"Can we play with the dog?" Lily asked Ben.
+
+"OK, but we have to ask his owner first," Ben said.
+
+They ran to the man who had the leash. He was sitting on a bench. He smiled at them.
+
+"Hello, kids. Do you want to play with Max?" he asked.
+
+"Yes, please. He is a nice dog," Lily said.
+
+"Sure, you can. But be gentle with him. He likes to fetch his ball, but he doesn't like to give it back," the man said.
+
+He threw the ball and Max ran after it. Ben and Lily followed him. They reached him and tried to take the ball from his mouth. But Max refused. He growled and held the ball tight.
+
+"Max, drop it. Be nice," the man said.
+
+But Max did not listen. He ran away with the ball. Ben and Lily chased him. They had fun, but they also wanted the ball.
+
+They ran around the park, but they could not catch Max. He was too fast and smart. He hid behind trees and bushes. He dodged and darted. He made them lose sight of him.
+
+"Where is he?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know. He is too good at hiding," Lily said.
+
+They looked everywhere, but they could not find him. They were tired and sad.
+
+"Let's go back to the man. Maybe he knows where Max is," Ben said.
+
+They walked back to the bench. They saw the man and Max. Max had the ball in his mouth. He looked happy and proud.
+
+"Sorry, kids. He is a stubborn dog. He loves his ball too much. Maybe next time he will share," the man said.
+
+He gave them a cookie and a juice. They thanked him and ate. They felt better.
+
+"Maybe next time, Max will be nice and let us play with his ball," Lily said.
+
+"Maybe. But he is still a nice dog. He made us run and laugh," Ben said.
+
+They smiled and waved at Max. He wagged his tail and barked. He still had the ball in his mouth. He refused to give it up.
+Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big slide. Ben wants to go on the slide. Mia is scared.
+
+"Come on, Mia. It is fun!" Ben says. He runs to the slide. He climbs up the ladder. He sits on the slide.
+
+Mia sees a sign. The sign has a picture of a sun and a word. The word is "hot". Mia knows what "hot" means. It means ouch. She wants to warn Ben.
+
+"Ben, Ben, stop!" Mia shouts. "The slide is hot. The sign says so. You will get hurt."
+
+But Ben does not hear Mia. He slides down the slide. He feels the hot metal. He screams. He jumps off the slide. He runs to Mia. He has red marks on his legs.
+
+"I am sorry, Mia. I did not listen to you. You are a good friend. You tried to warn me. Thank you." Ben says. He hugs Mia.
+
+Mia hugs Ben back. She is glad he is okay. She says, "You are welcome, Ben. You are a good friend too. Next time, look at the signs. They are clear. They tell us what to do and what not to do."
+Ben and Lily were playing with blocks. They liked to build towers and houses and cars. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes. They were jolly and had fun.
+
+But then, Ben saw a big block that Lily had. It was red and round and shiny. Ben wanted it for his tower. He said, "Give me that block, Lily. It is mine." Lily said, "No, Ben. It is mine. I found it first. Go away." Ben was angry. He tried to grab the block from Lily.
+
+Lily did not let go. She pulled the block back. They both tugged and tugged. The block was hard to hold. It slipped from their hands. It flew in the air. It hit the lamp on the table. The lamp fell down. It broke. It made a loud noise. It scared Ben and Lily.
+
+Mom heard the noise. She came to see what happened. She saw the broken lamp and the block. She saw Ben and Lily. She was not jolly. She was cross. She said, "What did you do, Ben and Lily? You broke the lamp. You were not careful. You were not nice. You have to go to your rooms. No more blocks for you today."
+
+Ben and Lily were sad. They cried. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We did not mean to break the lamp. We just wanted the block." Mom said, "I know, but you have to learn to share and be gentle. The block is not worth the result. Go to your rooms and think about it." She took the block and the blocks away. She cleaned the mess.
+
+Ben and Lily went to their rooms. They were not jolly. They were not friends. They were lonely. They wished they had not fought over the block. They wished they had attached it to their towers and houses and cars. They wished they had played nicely. They wished they had a jolly ending.
+Lily was a very obedient girl. She always listened to her mommy and daddy and did what they asked. She liked to help them with chores, like folding clothes and putting them in the drawer.
+
+One day, Lily was helping her mommy fold some socks. She picked up a blue sock and tried to find its match. She looked in the drawer, but she could not see it. She opened another drawer, but it was empty. She opened the last drawer, but it was full of dust.
+
+"Achoo!" Lily sneezed loudly. The dust tickled her nose and made her eyes water. She rubbed her nose with her hand and dropped the sock.
+
+"Oh, Lily, are you okay?" her mommy asked. She heard Lily's sneeze and came to see what happened. She saw Lily's face was red and her eyes were teary. She also saw the dusty drawer and the sock on the floor.
+
+"I'm sorry, mommy. I was looking for the sock's friend, but I only found dust. And then I sneezed," Lily said. She felt bad for making a mess and making her mommy worry.
+
+"It's okay, Lily. You don't have to be sorry. You were trying to help, and that's very sweet of you. But next time, be careful with the drawers. Some of them are very old and dirty. They need to be cleaned," her mommy said. She hugged Lily and kissed her cheek. She picked up the sock and found its match in another pile. She gave them to Lily and said, "Here you go. Now you can fold them and put them in the drawer. But first, let's wash your hands and face. You don't want to get sick from the dust."
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She was happy that her mommy was not angry with her. She followed her mommy to the bathroom and washed her hands and face. Then she went back to the bedroom and finished folding the socks. She put them in the drawer and closed it gently. She was a very obedient girl.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pond with many ducks. The ducks swim and quack. Tom and Lily want to feed them.
+
+They look for some bread, but they cannot find any. They see a tree with red apples. Tom has an idea. He says, "Let's pick some apples and give them to the ducks. They will like them."
+
+Lily nods. She climbs the tree and picks an apple. She throws it to Tom. Tom catches it and runs to the pond. He throws the apple to the ducks. The ducks swim to the apple and nibble it.
+
+Tom and Lily laugh. They pick more apples and throw them to the ducks. The ducks are happy and quack louder.
+
+But one duck is lazy. He does not swim to the apples. He waits for the apples to come to him. He sees an apple near the edge of the pond. He stretches his neck and tries to reach it. But he cannot.
+
+He sees Tom and Lily throwing more apples. He wants an apple too. He decides to dive. He pushes his head into the water and opens his beak. He grabs the apple and comes up. He quacks proudly.
+
+Tom and Lily see the lazy duck. They clap and cheer. They say, "Good job, lazy duck! You can dive and get an apple. You are not lazy anymore. You are smart and brave."
+
+The lazy duck smiles. He eats the apple and quacks happily. He swims to the other ducks and shares his apple. Tom and Lily smile too. They are glad they made a new friend. They say, "We love you, lazy duck. You are our friend too."
+Tim and Kim are twins. They like to play in the park. They have a big red ball. They throw the ball to each other and catch it. They laugh and have fun.
+
+One day, they see a big dog in the park. The dog is black and white. It has a long tail. The dog runs to them and barks. Tim and Kim are scared. They drop the ball and run away. The dog chases them.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tim and Kim shout. They look for their mom and dad. They see them on a bench. They wave to them. "Mom! Dad! A dog is after us!"
+
+But mom and dad do not see them. They are busy talking. They do not hear them. They do not wave back.
+
+The dog catches up with Tim and Kim. It jumps on them and knocks them down. It bites their clothes and hair. It makes a big knot in Tim's shirt. It makes a funny hole in Kim's hat. Tim and Kim cry and scream.
+
+Mom and dad finally look up. They see the dog and their twins. They are shocked. They run to them and shoo the dog away. They hug Tim and Kim and say sorry. They check if they are hurt. They are not hurt, but they are very sad. They do not want to play in the park anymore. They want to go home. They do not like the big dog. They do not think it is funny.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play dress-up. They had a big box of old clothes and hats and shoes that their grandma gave them. They liked to pretend they were different people and animals and things.
+
+One day, they found a black coat in the box that they had never seen before. It was very long and heavy and had shiny buttons and a big hood. Tom wanted to wear it and pretend he was a king or a wizard. Lily wanted to wear it and pretend she was a princess or a witch.
+
+"Let me wear it!" Tom said.
+
+"No, let me wear it!" Lily said.
+
+They both pulled on the coat and tried to take it from each other. They did not see that the coat had a hole in the pocket and something fell out of it. It was a small, round, shiny thing that looked like a coin.
+
+A cat saw the shiny thing and ran to get it. It picked it up with its mouth and ran away. Tom and Lily did not notice. They were still fighting over the coat.
+
+The cat ran outside and into the garden. It saw a big, old, stone well that had a bucket and a rope. It jumped on the bucket and dropped the shiny thing inside. It made a splash.
+
+The splash woke up something that was sleeping at the bottom of the well. It was a very big, very old, very angry frog. It had been waiting for a long time for someone to throw something into the well and make a wish. It thought the shiny thing was a wish.
+
+The frog opened its eyes and saw the cat on the bucket. It did not like cats. It opened its mouth and croaked very loudly. It sounded like a roar.
+
+The cat was scared and jumped off the bucket. The bucket fell into the well and hit the frog on the head. The frog was angry and jumped out of the well. It saw the cat running away. It chased the cat.
+
+Tom and Lily heard the roar and the splash and the chase. They stopped fighting and looked out of the window. They saw the frog and the cat and the well. They were surprised and scared.
+
+They dropped the coat and ran to their grandma. They told her what they saw. She smiled and said, "That coat is very ancient. It belonged to your great-great-grandpa. He was a magician. He had a magic coin that could make wishes come true. He lost it a long time ago. I guess the frog found it."
+
+Tom and Lily looked at each other. They wondered what they would wish for if they had the magic coin. They decided they would not wish for the black coat. They did not like it anymore. They liked their grandma better. She gave them a hug and a cookie. They were happy.
+Anna likes to feed the birds in the park. She has a bag of brown beans that she throws on the grass. The birds come and eat the beans. They make happy noises.
+
+One day, Anna goes to the park with her mom. She sees a big dog near the grass. The dog is black and has a long tail. The dog sees the bag of beans in Anna's hand. He wants the beans. He runs to Anna and barks.
+
+"Give me the beans!" the dog says.
+
+"No, they are for the birds!" Anna says. She holds the bag tight.
+
+The dog jumps and tries to grab the bag. Anna is scared. She screams.
+
+"Mom, help!" Anna says.
+
+Mom hears Anna and runs to her. She sees the dog and the bag of beans. She picks up a stick and waves it at the dog.
+
+"Go away, bad dog!" Mom says. "These beans are not for you!"
+
+The dog sees the stick and is afraid. He runs away. Mom hugs Anna and checks if she is okay.
+
+"Are you hurt, Anna?" Mom says.
+
+"No, Mom, I'm okay. But the dog was mean. He wanted my beans." Anna says.
+
+"I know, Anna. He was hungry and greedy. But you were brave and smart. You did not let him take your beans. You are a good girl." Mom says.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. Can I feed the birds now?" Anna says.
+
+"Of course, Anna. Let's go and find them. They are waiting for you." Mom says.
+
+They walk to the grass and see the birds. Anna smiles and throws the beans. The birds come and eat the beans. They make happy noises. Anna and Mom make happy noises too. They have a good time in the park.
+Tom and Sam were best friends. They liked to play with cars and balls and blocks. One day, they had a big fight. Tom wanted to play with the red car, but Sam had it first. Sam did not want to share. He said, "This is my car. Go away!" Tom got angry. He pushed Sam and grabbed the car. Sam pushed him back and took the car again. They both fell on the floor and started to cry.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Tom and Sam on the floor, with the red car between them. She said, "What are you doing? Why are you fighting?" Tom and Sam both said, "He started it!" Mom shook her head. She said, "Fighting is not nice. You are both wrong. You need to share and be kind. Can you say sorry to each other and forgive?"
+
+Tom and Sam looked at each other. They felt bad. They did not want to lose their friend. They said, "Sorry" and "Forgive" and hugged each other. Mom smiled. She said, "That's good. Now you can play together again. But please be careful. Don't break the wall or the car. They are not toys. They are dull and hard."
+
+Tom and Sam nodded. They picked up the car and the ball and the blocks. They decided to play outside, where there was more space and fun. They learned that sharing and forgiving are better than fighting and crying. They were happy again.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with toys and run in the park. One day, they see a cute cat on a tree. The cat is black and white and has a pink nose.
+
+"Look, a cat!" Tom says. "I want to pet it."
+
+"Me too," Lily says. "But it is too high. How can we reach it?"
+
+Tom has an idea. He sees a big box near the tree. He says, "We can use the box. We can stand on it and stretch our arms. Then we can touch the cat."
+
+Lily thinks it is a good idea. She says, "OK, let's try. You go first."
+
+Tom nods. He pushes the box to the tree. He climbs on the box and stretches his arms. He is very close to the cat. He says, "Hi, cat. You are so cute. Can I pet you?"
+
+But the cat does not like Tom. The cat is scared and angry. The cat hisses and scratches Tom's face. Tom cries out in pain. He falls off the box and hits his head on the ground.
+
+Lily is shocked. She runs to Tom and sees blood on his face and head. She says, "Oh no, Tom. You are hurt. I will get help."
+
+She runs to find a grown-up. She sees a man who is a teach. He works at their school. She says, "Please, help. My friend is hurt. A cat scratched him and he fell."
+
+The teach follows Lily to the tree. He sees Tom lying on the ground. He says, "Oh dear, this is bad. We need to call an ambulance. Stay here, I will get my phone."
+
+He runs to his car and gets his phone. He calls the ambulance and tells them what happened. He says, "Hurry, please. A boy is bleeding. He was attacked by a cat and fell from a box."
+
+The ambulance comes soon. The people in the ambulance are nice. They put Tom on a stretcher and take him to the hospital. They say, "Don't worry, we will take care of him. He will be OK."
+
+Lily is sad and scared. She says, "I'm sorry, Tom. I hope you get better soon. I wish we never saw that cat."
+
+The end.
+Lily and Max are twins. They like to play together. One day, they find a green book in their room. The book has many pictures of animals and people.
+
+"Look, Max, this is a massage," Lily says, pointing to a picture of a woman rubbing a man's back. "It makes you feel good."
+
+"What is a massage?" Max asks. He does not understand the word.
+
+Lily tries to explain. "It is when someone touches you gently with their hands. Like this." She puts her hands on Max's shoulders and moves them up and down.
+
+Max giggles. "That tickles, Lily. It does not make me feel good. It makes me laugh."
+
+Lily laughs too. "Maybe you do not like massages, Max. Maybe you like something else. What do you like?"
+
+Max thinks for a moment. "I like hugs, Lily. Hugs make me feel good. And I like kisses too."
+
+Lily smiles. "I like hugs and kisses too, Max. They are better than massages. Come here, let me give you a hug and a kiss."
+
+Lily and Max hug and kiss each other. They are happy. They put the green book away and find another toy to play with. They do not need massages. They have each other.
+Tom and Lily are playing with their toys in the garden. They have a big box and some paper. They want to make a fly that can go in the air.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a complete fly!" Tom says. He shows Lily his paper fly. He has cut out wings and a body and glued them together. He has drawn eyes and a mouth on the fly.
+
+"Wow, Tom, your fly is very good!" Lily says. She likes Tom's fly. She wants to make one too. She takes some paper and scissors and starts to cut.
+
+"Can you help me, Tom?" Lily asks. She is not very good at cutting. Her paper fly has jagged edges and holes.
+
+"Sure, Lily, I can help you," Tom says. He is a kind friend. He takes some more paper and scissors and cuts out smooth wings and a body for Lily. He helps her glue them together. He gives her a marker to draw eyes and a mouth.
+
+"Thank you, Tom, now I have a complete fly too!" Lily says. She is very happy. She shows Tom her paper fly. It looks like his fly, but with different colors.
+
+"You're welcome, Lily, your fly is very pretty!" Tom says. He is proud of his friend. He has an idea. "Let's go and fly our flies in the air!"
+
+"Okay, Tom, let's go!" Lily says. They run to the open space in the garden. They hold their paper flies by the body and throw them in the air. The flies flap their wings and soar in the breeze.
+
+"Look, Lily, our flies are flying!" Tom says.
+
+"Look, Tom, they are so high!" Lily says.
+
+They laugh and clap and watch their flies. They have fun playing with their toys in the garden.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play dress-up with their mom's clothes and shoes. They have a big box full of hats, scarves, dresses, skirts, shirts, pants, belts, and jewelry. They also have a mirror to see how they look.
+
+One day, they decide to have a fashion show. They take turns to pick an outfit from the box and put it on. Then they stand in front of the mirror and say, "This is my style!" They giggle and clap for each other.
+
+Ben picks a red dress, a blue scarf, a yellow hat, and a green necklace. He stands in front of the mirror and says, "This is my style!" Lily laughs and says, "You look funny, Ben! You look like a rainbow!"
+
+Lily picks a purple skirt, a pink shirt, a white belt, and a silver bracelet. She stands in front of the mirror and says, "This is my style!" Ben smiles and says, "You look pretty, Lily! You look like a princess!"
+
+They keep playing until they hear their mom coming home. They quickly put the clothes and shoes back in the box and hide it under the bed. They run to the living room and pretend to read a book.
+
+Their mom walks in and says, "Hello, my busy bees! What have you been doing today?" Ben and Lily look at each other and say, "Nothing, mom. Just reading a book." Their mom smiles and says, "That's good. Reading is fun. But why do you have a green necklace and a silver bracelet on your hands?" Ben and Lily gasp and look at their hands. They forgot to take off the jewelry! Their mom laughs and says, "Did you play dress-up again? You have such a creative style!" Ben and Lily blush and say, "Sorry, mom. We were just having fun." Their mom hugs them and says, "It's okay, my loves. I'm glad you have fun. But next time, please ask me before you use my clothes and shoes. And put them back where they belong. Okay?" Ben and Lily nod and say, "Okay, mom. We love you." Their mom says, "I love you too. Now, let's go have some dinner. I made your favorite: macaroni and cheese!" Ben and Lily cheer and follow their mom to the kitchen. They are happy and hungry. They still have their style.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They saw a big dog with a red collar. The dog was friendly and wagged its tail. Tim and Lily ran to the dog and wanted to pet it.
+
+"Hello, doggy!" Tim said. He waved his hand at the dog.
+
+"Can we touch you?" Lily asked. She reached out her hand to the dog.
+
+But the dog did not like strangers. The dog barked and snapped at Tim and Lily. It showed its teeth and growled. Tim and Lily were scared and ran away. They cried and felt pain in their hearts.
+
+The dog's owner came and saw what happened. He was grumpy and angry. He shouted at Tim and Lily.
+
+"Go away, you naughty kids! You scared my dog! He doesn't like to be waved at or touched by strangers! You should ask before you approach a dog!"
+
+Tim and Lily felt sad and sorry. They did not know the dog's rules. They wanted to be friends with the dog, not make it angry. They said sorry to the dog and its owner.
+
+"We are sorry, sir. We are sorry, doggy. We did not mean to scare you. We just wanted to say hello and be nice. We like dogs. Can we be friends?"
+
+The dog's owner saw that Tim and Lily were sincere and polite. He felt a little less grumpy and angry. He said sorry to Tim and Lily.
+
+"I am sorry, kids. I was too harsh. My dog is old and nervous. He doesn't like loud noises or sudden movements. He needs time and space to get used to new people. If you want to be friends with him, you have to be gentle and quiet. You have to let him sniff you first and then pet him softly. Do you understand?"
+
+Tim and Lily nodded. They understood the dog's needs. They wanted to be gentle and quiet. They wanted to let the dog sniff them first and then pet him softly. They wanted to be friends with him.
+
+The dog's owner smiled and said, "OK, then. Come here slowly and calmly. Let me hold his leash and introduce you to him. His name is Rex. He is a good dog, but he needs some love and trust. Can you give him that?"
+
+Tim and Lily smiled and said, "Yes, we can. We can give him love and trust. We can be his friends."
+
+They walked slowly and calmly to the dog. They let the dog sniff their hands and then pet him softly. The dog wagged his tail and licked their faces. He was happy and friendly. Tim and Lily were happy and friendly too. They made a new friend. They felt no pain in their hearts. They waved goodbye to the dog and its owner and thanked them for the chance to be friends. They went back to play in the park. They had a good day.
+Lila and Ben were on a big boat with their mom and dad. They liked to look at the water and the fish and the birds. One day, the boat stopped near a small island. Mom and dad said they could go and play on the island for a while.
+
+Lila and Ben were happy. They ran on the sand and picked up shells and rocks. They saw a big tree with green fruit. They wanted to try the fruit, but they did not know if it was good or bad. They saw a monkey on the tree. The monkey looked at them and made a funny noise.
+
+"Hello, monkey," Lila said. "Can we have some fruit?"
+
+The monkey shook his head. He pointed to the boat. He said, "No, no, no. Go back to boat. Fruit is bad. Make you sick. Boat is good. Keep you safe."
+
+Lila and Ben were surprised. They did not know monkeys could talk. They wondered how the monkey knew about the boat and the fruit. They thought the monkey was very wise.
+
+"Thank you, monkey," Ben said. "You are very kind. We will go back to boat. Goodbye, monkey."
+
+The monkey nodded. He said, "Goodbye, children. Be careful. Do not stay on island. Island is bad. Boat is good."
+
+Lila and Ben ran back to the boat. They told mom and dad about the monkey and the fruit. Mom and dad were amazed. They said the monkey was very smart and helpful. They said Lila and Ben were very lucky and brave. They said they should always listen to wise monkeys. They hugged Lila and Ben and gave them cookies. Lila and Ben were happy. They waved to the monkey and said thank you. The monkey waved back and smiled. The boat left the island and sailed away. Lila and Ben remained on the boat with mom and dad. They were safe and happy. The end.
+Anna and Ben like to help their mom bake cookies. They put on their aprons and wash their hands. Mom gives them a big bowl and a wooden spoon. She tells them to put in some flour, some butter, some eggs and some sugar. Anna and Ben take turns to measure and pour the ingredients. They stir and stir until the dough is soft and sticky.
+
+Mom shows them how to roll the dough into small balls and put them on a baking tray. She says they can decorate the cookies with some sprinkles. She opens a jar of colorful sprinkles and puts it on the table. Anna and Ben are very excited. They each grab a handful of sprinkles and start to sprinkle them on the cookies.
+
+But Ben is not very gentle. He sprinkles too hard and too fast. Some of the sprinkles fly off the cookies and land on the floor, on the table, on his apron and on his face. Anna laughs and points at him. She says he looks like a rainbow. Ben laughs too, but he feels a bit silly. He tries to be more gentle and careful with the sprinkles.
+
+Mom smiles and says they did a good job. She puts the tray in the oven and sets the timer. She tells them to wait for a few minutes until the cookies are baked and golden. She says they can have some milk while they wait. She pours them each a glass of milk and adds a spoonful of sugar. She says sugar makes the milk sweeter and gives them more energy.
+
+Anna and Ben sip their milk and lick their lips. They can smell the cookies in the oven. They are very happy and proud. They can't wait to taste their cookies. They thank their mom for letting them help. Mom hugs them and says they are very good helpers. She says she loves them very much.
+Anna and Ben are playing at the park. They like to slide, swing and run. They see a big bin near the fence. It is full of old things. Anna and Ben are curious. They want to see what is inside.
+
+They go to the bin and look. They see a broken toy, a torn book, a dirty hat and a shiny thing. The shiny thing is a metal spoon. Anna likes the spoon. She picks it up and says, "Look, Ben, a spoon! I can use it to eat soup."
+
+Ben says, "No, Anna, that is not a spoon. That is a wand. You can use it to do magic. Watch me." He takes the spoon from Anna and waves it in the air. He says, "Abracadabra, make a rabbit appear!"
+
+Nothing happens. Anna and Ben are disappointed. They think the wand is not working. They hear a noise behind the bin. They peek and see a white rabbit. It is eating a carrot. Anna and Ben are surprised and happy. They think the wand did work.
+
+They go to the rabbit and say hello. The rabbit is calm and friendly. It lets them pet it and feed it. Anna and Ben are having fun. They forget about the bin and the wand. They play with the rabbit until it is time to go home. They wave goodbye to the rabbit and thank it for the magic. They hope to see it again.
+Tim and Jen were playing in the snow. They made a big white ball and a small white ball. They put the small ball on top of the big ball. They found a carrot, a hat and two sticks. They made a face and arms for the white ball. They had a snowman!
+
+"Look, we made a snowman!" Tim said. "He is our friend!"
+
+"Yes, he is very nice!" Jen said. "Let's give him a hug!"
+
+They ran to the snowman and hugged him. But the snowman was not happy. He was cold and angry. He did not like Tim and Jen. He pushed them away with his stick arms. He took his hat and carrot and ran away.
+
+"Hey, come back!" Tim said. "That's not nice!"
+
+But the snowman did not listen. He ran to the road. He saw a big red car. The car was fast and loud. The car did not see the snowman. The car hit the snowman.
+
+CRASH!
+
+The snowman broke into many pieces. The hat and carrot flew in the air. The white balls rolled on the ground. The sticks snapped.
+
+Tim and Jen saw what happened. They were sad and scared. They cried.
+
+"Snowman, snowman, why did you do that?" Jen said. "You were our friend!"
+
+But the snowman did not answer. He was gone.
+Tom was a shy boy who liked to play with his sack of toys. He had cars, balls, dolls, and books in his sack. He did not like to share his toys with other kids, because he was afraid they would break them or take them away. He always kept his sack close to him, even when he went to the park.
+
+One day, he saw a big pond in the park. He wanted to see the fish and the ducks in the water. He walked to the edge of the pond, holding his sack. He saw a big fish swimming near the surface. He leaned over to look at it, but he lost his balance and fell into the pond. His sack fell with him and sank to the bottom.
+
+Tom was scared and wet. He cried for help. He heard a voice say, "Don't worry, I'll help you." He looked up and saw a girl holding a stick. She was one of the kids who played in the park. She had seen Tom fall into the pond and ran to help him. She reached out the stick to Tom and said, "Grab this and I'll pull you out."
+
+Tom grabbed the stick and the girl pulled him out of the pond. He was shivering and dripping. He thanked the girl and asked her, "What is your name?"
+
+She smiled and said, "I'm Lily. What is your name?"
+
+He said, "I'm Tom. Thank you for saving me, Lily."
+
+She said, "You're welcome, Tom. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Tom nodded and said, "Yes, I do. But what about my sack of toys? They are in the pond."
+
+Lily said, "Don't worry, we can get them back. Look, there is a net over there. We can use it to fish out your sack."
+
+Tom and Lily ran to get the net. They worked together to scoop up Tom's sack from the pond. They opened the sack and checked the toys. They were wet, but not broken. Tom was happy to see his toys again. He said to Lily, "Do you want to play with my toys?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, I do. Do you want to play with my toys?"
+
+Tom said, "Yes, I do. What do you have?"
+
+Lily said, "I have a kite, a bike, a ball, and a book. Come on, let's go to the field and fly the kite."
+
+Tom and Lily became friends. They shared their toys and played together. Tom was not shy anymore. He learned to trust and share with others. He was glad he met Lily at the pond.
+Tom is a fat person. He likes to eat a lot of food. He has a big belly and big cheeks. He is not very fast or strong.
+
+One day, Tom goes to the park with his friend, Sam. Sam is not fat. He likes to run and play. He is very fast and strong.
+
+"Let's go on the swings, Tom!" Sam says.
+
+"OK, Sam," Tom says. He follows Sam to the swings.
+
+Sam gets on a swing and starts to swing high. He laughs and has fun. Tom gets on another swing and tries to swing high too. But he is too fat. He can't swing high. He feels sad and bored.
+
+"Tom, why are you not swinging?" Sam asks.
+
+"I can't, Sam. I am too fat," Tom says.
+
+"That's not true, Tom. You can swing if you want to. You just need to hold the ropes tight and push with your legs," Sam says.
+
+"Really, Sam? Can you show me how?" Tom asks.
+
+"Sure, Tom. Come here. I will help you," Sam says.
+
+Sam gets off his swing and goes to Tom's swing. He holds Tom's hands and helps him hold the ropes tight. He pushes Tom's swing with his legs. Tom feels the swing move faster and faster. He feels the wind on his face and the sun on his hair. He smiles and has fun.
+
+"Wow, Sam! This is fun! Thank you for helping me!" Tom says.
+
+"You're welcome, Tom! I'm glad you're having fun. You are my friend. I like you, fat or not," Sam says.
+
+They swing together and laugh. They are happy. They are friends.
+Mia and Ben love to go to the park with Mom. They like to play on the swings, slide down the slide, and run on the grass. Sometimes they see birds, squirrels, and flowers. They are happy and have fun.
+
+One day, they see something new in the park. It is a big, round, brown thing. It has a stem and a cap. It looks like a hat. Mom says it is a mushroom. She says mushrooms are plants that grow in damp places. She says some mushrooms are yummy, but some are yucky. She says they should never eat mushrooms they find in the park, because they might be yucky or make them sick.
+
+Mia and Ben are curious. They want to touch the mushroom, but Mom says no. She says they can look, but not touch. She says they can draw the mushroom, if they want. She gives them paper and crayons. Mia and Ben draw the mushroom. They use brown, white, and green crayons. They make the mushroom look big and funny. They show Mom their drawings. Mom says they are very good. She says they are very creative.
+
+Mia and Ben are hungry. They ask Mom if they can have a snack. Mom says yes. She takes out a bag from her backpack. She gives them each a sandwich, a banana, and a juice box. She says they are yummy. Mia and Ben agree. They eat their snacks. They say thank you to Mom. They are full and happy.
+
+Mia and Ben are tired. They ask Mom if they can go home. Mom says yes. She packs their things. She holds their hands. They walk to the car. They say goodbye to the park. They say goodbye to the mushroom. They get in the car. They buckle their seat belts. Mom drives them home. They arrive at their house. They are sleepy and cozy. They hug Mom. They say they love her. They go to their beds. They close their eyes. They dream of the park and the mushroom. They are happy and have fun.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play together. They had many toys and books in their room. But one day, their mom said they had to separate their things. She said they were too old to share everything. She said she would put a wall in the middle of their room.
+
+Tom and Lily did not like this idea. They did not want to separate their things. They did not want a wall in their room. They wanted to stay together. They begged their mom to change her mind.
+
+"Please, mom, don't do this!" Tom said.
+
+"We love each other, mom, we don't need a wall!" Lily said.
+
+But their mom did not listen. She said it was for their own good. She said they would have more space and privacy. She said they would still see each other every day. She said they would get used to it.
+
+The next day, their mom brought a man who had a big hammer and some wood. He started to build a wall in their room. Tom and Lily watched him with sad eyes. They held each other's hands. They did not want to say goodbye.
+
+The wall was soon finished. It was tall and thick. It divided their room into two parts. Tom's part had his bed, his desk, his toys and his books. Lily's part had her bed, her desk, her toys and her books. But they did not have each other.
+
+Tom and Lily felt very lonely. They missed each other a lot. They tried to talk through the wall, but they could not hear well. They tried to peek through the cracks, but they could not see well. They tried to smile, but they could not feel happy.
+
+Their room was gloomy. They did not want to play with their toys or read their books. They did not want to sleep in their beds or sit at their desks. They only wanted to be together.
+
+They wished their mom would take away the wall. They wished they could share everything again. They wished they could hug and kiss and laugh and play. They wished they were twins again.
+Sara and Ben were going to the airport with Mom and Dad. They were very happy because they were going to see Grandma and Grandpa. They had a big bag with toys and books and snacks.
+
+But when they got to the airport, they saw a lot of people and cars and noise. They had to wait in a long line to show their tickets and bags. Sara and Ben did not like waiting. They started to whine and cry and kick.
+
+Mom and Dad tried to calm them down, but they did not listen. They wanted to play and run and eat. They were spoiled and rude. They made Mom and Dad very sad and angry.
+
+Then, something strange happened. A loud voice said: "Freeze! Do not move! There is a problem!" Sara and Ben looked around and saw that everyone was still and quiet. They saw some men with badges and guns running to a door. They heard sirens and dogs.
+
+Sara and Ben were scared. They did not know what was going on. They stopped whining and crying and kicking. They held Mom and Dad's hands and stayed close to them. They wished they had been good and patient. They learned a lesson.
+Anna and Ben are brother and sister. They like to play together in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is brown and fluffy. It has a collar with a tag.
+
+"Look, Anna, a dog!" Ben says. He runs to the dog and tries to pet it.
+
+"Wait, Ben, be careful!" Anna says. She follows him and sees the tag. It has a name and a phone number. "The dog has a name. It is Max. And this is his owner's number. Maybe he is lost."
+
+Anna takes out her phone and calls the number. A woman answers. She sounds worried.
+
+"Hello, is this Max's owner?" Anna asks.
+
+"Yes, yes, this is me. Have you seen my dog? I have been looking for him everywhere. He ran away from the yard this morning. Where are you?" the woman says.
+
+"We are in the park. We found Max. He is safe and friendly. We can stay with him until you come." Anna says.
+
+"Thank you so much, you are very kind. I will be there soon. What are your names?" the woman says.
+
+"I am Anna and this is my brother Ben. We like dogs. Max is a good dog." Anna says.
+
+The woman arrives and hugs Max. She is very happy and grateful. She thanks Anna and Ben and gives them a reward. She also lets them pet Max and play with him for a while.
+

+Tim and Sue are playing in the garden. They see a big bee flying near the flowers. Tim is scared of the bee. He thinks it will sting him.
+
+"Look, a bee!" Tim says. "Run away!"
+
+Sue is not scared of the bee. She knows it is harmless. It only wants to get some nectar from the flowers.
+
+"Don't run away, Tim," Sue says. "The bee will not hurt you. It is harmless. It is your friend."
+
+Tim does not believe Sue. He runs to the house. He finds a comb in the bathroom. He thinks the comb will protect him from the bee. He covers his head with the comb.
+
+Sue follows Tim to the house. She sees him hiding under the comb. She laughs.
+
+"Tim, what are you doing?" Sue says. "The comb will not stop the bee. The bee is not interested in you. The comb is for your hair, not for your head."
+
+Tim peeks out from the comb. He sees Sue smiling. He feels silly.
+
+"Really?" Tim says. "The bee is harmless?"
+
+"Yes, Tim," Sue says. "The bee is harmless. Come, let me show you. The bee is beautiful. It has yellow and black stripes. It makes a buzzing sound. It helps the flowers grow."
+
+Tim puts down the comb. He follows Sue to the garden. He sees the bee flying away. He is not scared anymore. He is curious.
+
+"Can I touch the bee?" Tim says.
+
+"No, Tim," Sue says. "The bee does not like to be touched. It might sting you if you bother it. But you can watch it from a distance. It is amazing."
+
+Tim and Sue watch the bee for a while. They learn more about the bee. They have fun. They forget about the comb.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a shiny jewel on the grass. It is red and round and sparkles in the sun.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Lila says. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Can I see?" Ben asks. He takes the jewel and holds it in his hand. He whistles. "It is like a star!"
+
+They decide to share the jewel. They take turns holding it and looking at it. They make up stories about where it came from and what it can do. They pretend it is a magic jewel that can grant wishes.
+
+They have a lot of fun with the jewel. They are glad they found it. They are glad they are friends. They put the jewel in a safe place in their pocket.

+Lily and Ben were brother and sister. They liked to play in the park near their home. They had a ball, a bike and a doll. They had fun in the park every day.
+
+One day, their mom said, "We need to go to the grocery. We have no food at home. We are poor and we have little money. You have to come with me and help me carry the bags."
+
+Lily and Ben did not want to go to the grocery. They wanted to stay in the park and play. They said, "No, mom, we don't want to go. We want to play. Can we go later?"
+
+Their mom said, "No, we have to go now. It is getting dark and the grocery will close soon. Please, be good and come with me. It will not take long."
+
+Lily and Ben were angry and sad. They did not listen to their mom. They ran away from her and hid behind a tree. They thought their mom would not find them and they could play more.
+
+But their mom was worried and scared. She looked for them everywhere. She called their names and asked people if they saw them. She could not find them. She cried and cried.
+
+Lily and Ben heard their mom cry. They felt sorry and guilty. They came out from behind the tree and ran to their mom. They hugged her and said, "We are sorry, mom. We were bad. We love you. Please, don't cry."
+
+Their mom was happy and relieved. She hugged them and said, "I love you too. But you were very naughty. You made me worry and waste time. Now we have no food and no money. We have to go home hungry and sad."
+
+Lily and Ben were ashamed and sad. They learned a lesson. They should have obeyed their mom and helped her. They should have been grateful for what they had. They should have been good and not selfish. They never ran away from their mom again.
+Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play with their toy boats in the pond. They pretended they were sailors, exploring new lands.
+
+One day, they saw a big green island in the pond. It looked like a jungle, with many trees and plants. They wanted to go there and see what was inside.
+
+"Let's sail to the jungle island!" Lily said.
+
+"OK, but be careful. There might be animals there," Tom said.
+
+They pushed their boats into the water and started to sail. They used sticks as oars and made boat noises. They felt very brave and happy.
+
+Soon, they reached the shore of the island. They tied their boats to a branch and climbed out. They looked around and saw many flowers and fruits. They also heard some noises, like birds and monkeys.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing!" Lily said.
+
+"Look, there is a path. Let's follow it and see where it leads," Tom said.
+
+They walked along the path, holding hands. They saw more animals, like a frog, a snake, and a butterfly. They were not scared, they were curious.
+
+They came to a clearing, where they saw a big hut. It was made of wood and leaves. It had a door and a window. They wondered who lived there.
+
+"Hello, is anyone home?" Lily called.
+
+Suddenly, a man came out of the hut. He was tall and strong. He had a beard and a hat. He looked surprised and angry.
+
+"Who are you? What are you doing here?" he shouted.
+
+Lily and Tom were scared. They realized they had entered someone's home without permission. They had made a mistake.
+
+"We are sorry, sir. We are sailors. We came to explore the jungle island. We didn't mean to bother you," Tom said.
+
+The man looked at them and saw their toy boats. He realized they were just children, playing a game. He felt sorry for them.
+
+He smiled and said, "I see. Well, I am the king of this island. I live here alone, with my animals. I am very powerful, but also very lonely. Do you want to be my friends?"
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They felt relieved and happy. They wanted to be friends with the king.
+
+The king invited them into his hut. He showed them his treasures and his pets. He gave them some fruits and juice. He told them stories about his adventures. They had a lot of fun.
+
+They decided to visit the king often, and bring him gifts and news. They also invited him to sail with them sometimes. They became good friends, and the jungle island became their favorite place to play.
+Lily wanted to help her mom cook dinner. She saw a big chicken on the table. She thought it looked yummy. She wanted to put some salt on it. She climbed on a chair and reached for the salt. But she was too small. She could not manage to get the salt. She lost her balance and fell off the chair. The chicken fell off the table too. It landed on the floor with a loud thud.
+
+"Are you okay, Lily?" Mom asked. She ran to Lily and hugged her. She was worried.
+
+"I'm okay, Mom. But I'm sorry. I made a mess. I wanted to help you," Lily said. She felt embarrassed. She looked at the chicken on the floor. It was dirty and had some feathers on it.
+
+"It's okay, sweetie. You don't have to be embarrassed. You were trying to be helpful. But next time, please ask me before you touch anything in the kitchen. It can be dangerous. And we can always wash the chicken and cook it again. It's not wasted," Mom said. She smiled and kissed Lily.
+
+"Okay, Mom. I'm sorry. I love you," Lily said. She hugged Mom back.
+
+"I love you too, Lily. Now, let's clean up this mess and make some salad instead. How does that sound?" Mom asked.
+
+"That sounds good, Mom. Can I help you with the salad?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course you can, Lily. You are my little helper. Come on, let's go to the garden and pick some lettuce and tomatoes," Mom said.
+
+They went to the garden and picked some fresh vegetables. They washed them and chopped them. They made a delicious salad. They also washed the chicken and put it in the oven. They set the table and waited for Dad to come home. They had a nice dinner together. Lily was happy. She forgot about her embarrassment. She was proud of her salad. She told Dad how she helped Mom. Dad praised her and gave her a big hug. Lily smiled. She loved her family.
+Sam and Tom were friends. They liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big pile of mud. It looked fun to jump in.
+
+"Let's jump in the mud!" Sam said.
+
+"No, it is dirty and wet. We will get in trouble," Tom said.
+
+Sam did not listen. He ran to the mud and jumped in. He laughed and splashed. Tom watched from far away.
+
+"Come on, Tom! Don't be weak. It is fun!" Sam said.
+
+Tom did not want to be weak. He wanted to be fun. He chose to jump in the mud too. He ran to the mud and jumped in. He did not laugh. He did not splash. He felt cold and sticky.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tom cried. "I am stuck in the mud!"
+
+Sam tried to help him. But he was stuck too. The mud was too deep and thick. They could not move. They could not get out.
+
+They called for help. But no one heard them. They were too far from the house. They were too loud in the mud. They were scared and sad.
+
+They wished they did not choose to jump in the mud. They wished they listened to Tom. They wished they stayed clean and dry. But it was too late. The mud was their trap. The mud was their end.
+Tom and Lily were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big sign with a symbol on it. The symbol was a red circle with a line across it.
+
+"What is that?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know," Lily said. "Maybe it means no."
+
+"No what?" Tom wondered.
+
+They went closer to the sign. They saw a picture of a dog under the symbol.
+
+"Oh, I get it," Lily said. "It means no dogs. We can't bring dogs here."
+
+Tom felt sad. He loved dogs. He had a dog at home. His dog was brown and fluffy. His dog was named Spot.
+
+"Why can't we bring dogs here?" Tom asked.
+
+"Maybe because they are noisy or messy," Lily guessed. "Or maybe some people are scared of them."
+
+Tom shook his head. "That's not fair. Dogs are nice. They make me happy."
+
+Lily nodded. "Me too. I wish we could bring dogs here."
+
+They looked around. They saw a man with a dog. The dog was black and shiny. The dog was named Rex.
+
+The man and the dog did not see the sign. They walked into the park. They seemed happy.
+
+Tom and Lily ran to them. They wanted to pet the dog.
+
+"Hello," Tom said. "Can we play with your dog?"
+
+The man smiled. "Sure, he loves kids. His name is Rex. What are your names?"
+
+"I'm Tom and this is Lily," Tom said.
+
+"Hi, Rex," Lily said. She stroked the dog's fur.
+
+Rex wagged his tail. He licked their faces. He seemed happy too.
+
+Tom and Lily forgot about the sign. They played with Rex. They threw a ball for him. They ran with him. They laughed with him.
+
+They had fun. They were happy.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park with their toy animals. They liked to pretend they were in the jungle, and make noises like lions and monkeys. Anna had a rhinoceros, which was her favorite toy. It was gray and had a big horn on its nose. Ben had a giraffe, which was very tall and had spots.
+
+"Look at my rhinoceros!" Anna said. "It is very strong and can run fast. It can scare away any bad animals."
+
+"Look at my giraffe!" Ben said. "It is very tall and can see far. It can eat leaves from the trees."
+
+They both thought their toys were the best, and they started to argue.
+
+"My rhinoceros is better than your giraffe!" Anna said.
+
+"No, my giraffe is better than your rhinoceros!" Ben said.
+
+They were so busy fighting that they did not notice a real rhinoceros walking towards them. It was enormous, much bigger than their toys. It had a thick skin and a sharp horn. It made a loud snort, and the children stopped and looked at it.
+
+"Wow!" Anna said. "It is a real rhinoceros!"
+
+"Wow!" Ben said. "It is so big!"
+
+They were both scared and amazed. They did not know what to do. They held their toys close to them.
+
+The rhinoceros looked at them, and then at their toys. It seemed curious and friendly. It came closer and sniffed their toys. It nudged them gently with its horn. It made a soft grunt, as if to say hello.
+
+"Hello, rhinoceros!" Anna said. "We are Anna and Ben. These are our toys. They are rhinoceros and giraffe."
+
+"Hello, rhinoceros!" Ben said. "You are very nice. Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The rhinoceros nodded its head, and the children smiled. They decided to share their toys with the rhinoceros, and play together in the park. They forgot their argument, and became friends. They learned that the rhinoceros was not scary, but gentle and fun. They also learned that it was good to believe in their toys, but also to be open to new things. They had a wonderful time, and the rhinoceros was happy too.
+Anna and Ben love to play in the park. They like to run, swing, slide and climb. Sometimes they go on the trail with their mom and dad. The trail is a long path in the woods. They see trees, flowers, birds and bugs.
+
+One day, they saw a little cat on the trail. The cat was black and white and very cute. But the cat was scared and stuck in a bush. It meowed and tried to get out, but the bush had thorns. Anna and Ben wanted to help the cat.
+
+They ran to their mom and dad and told them about the cat. Their mom and dad followed them to the bush. They used a big stick to move the thorns away from the cat. Then they gently lifted the cat out of the bush. The cat was happy and licked their hands.
+
+Anna and Ben asked their mom and dad if they could keep the cat. Their mom and dad said yes, if the cat had no owner. They put a collar on the cat and wrote their phone number on it. They named the cat Spot, because of his black and white spots.
+
+They took Spot home and gave him food, water and a bed. Spot liked his new home and his new friends. He purred and snuggled with Anna and Ben. They rescued Spot from the bush and gave him a lovely family.
+Lila was lonely. She had no friends to play with. She liked to draw and color, but she had no one to show her pictures to. She wished she had a friend who liked to draw and color too.
+
+One day, she found a big box in her room. It had a picture of a printer on it. She wondered what it was. She opened the box and saw a printer inside. It had buttons and wires and paper. She wanted to try it.
+
+She plugged the printer into the wall and turned it on. She saw a light blink. She pressed a button and heard a noise. She saw a paper come out of the printer. It had a picture of a flower on it. She liked the picture. She pressed another button and saw another paper come out. It had a picture of a star on it. She liked that too.
+
+She kept pressing buttons and printing pictures. She had a lot of pictures. She put them on the wall and on the floor and on the bed. She made a big collage of pictures. She was happy.
+
+Then she heard a knock on the door. She opened the door and saw a boy. He had a big smile and a backpack. He said, "Hi, I'm Ben. I just moved next door. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lila smiled back. She said, "Yes, I do. Come in. I have something to show you. I have a printer. It makes pictures. Do you like to draw and color?"
+
+Ben nodded. He said, "I love to draw and color. Can I see your printer? Can I print some pictures too?"
+
+Lila said, "Of course. Come on. Let's print some pictures together."
+
+They went to the printer and printed more pictures. They shared their crayons and markers and colored the pictures. They talked and laughed and had fun. They became friends.
+
+Lila was not lonely anymore. She had a friend who liked to draw and color too. She was happy.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big swamp near their house. They want to go and look at it.
+
+"Come on, Sam, let's hurry!" Tim says. "Maybe we can find frogs and snakes and other animals."
+
+Sam nods and follows Tim. They run to the swamp. They see a lot of water and mud and plants. They hear noises and splashes.
+
+"Wow, this swamp is so lively!" Sam says. "Look, there is a frog! And there is a bird!"
+
+Tim points to a big log. "And there is a crocodile!" he says.
+
+Sam gasps. He sees a long tail and big teeth. He is scared. He grabs Tim's hand.
+
+"Tim, we have to go!" he says. "The crocodile might eat us!"
+
+Tim nods. He is scared too. They turn around and run away from the swamp. They do not stop until they reach their house.
+
+They tell their mom what they saw. She hugs them and says they are brave. She says they should not go to the swamp again. It is too dangerous.
+
+Tim and Sam agree. They say they are sorry. They say they will play in the yard instead. They are happy to be safe and warm. They still like to look at animals, but not crocodiles.
+Tom and Lily were bored. They wanted to play with something fun. They saw a big jar of sauce in the kitchen. It was red and thick. They thought it looked like paint.
+
+"Let's paint with the sauce!" Tom said.
+
+"OK!" Lily said.
+
+They took the jar and some paper and went to the living room. They opened the jar and dipped their fingers in the sauce. They made dots and lines and shapes on the paper. They laughed and giggled. They had fun.
+
+But they also made a big mess. The sauce dripped on the floor and the couch and the table. It stained everything red. They did not see Mom coming in. She was very angry.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom yelled. "You ruined the white couch and the white carpet and the white tablecloth! And you wasted the sauce for dinner! You are in big trouble!"
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They dropped the jar and the paper. They started to cry. They were sorry. But it was too late. Mom took them to their room and gave them a time out. They had no dinner and no toys. They had a bad day.
+Sam liked to hang his drawings on the wall. He used tape and scissors to make them stick. He drew his family, his dog, his toys and his friends. He was proud of his art.
+
+One day, he saw a big book on the shelf. It had many pages and letters. He wanted to know what it was. He climbed on a chair and reached for the book. It was heavy and he almost fell.
+
+"Sam, what are you doing?" his grandma asked. She was elderly and kind. She had white hair and glasses. She came to help him.
+
+"I want to see this book, grandma. What is it?" Sam said.
+
+"That is a dictionary, Sam. It is a book that tells you what words mean. It is for big people who read and write a lot. You are too little for it. It might hurt you if you drop it." grandma said.
+
+"Can you read it to me, grandma? Please?" Sam asked.
+
+"Maybe when you are older, Sam. For now, let's put it back on the shelf. And let's look at your drawings. They are very nice. You are a good artist." grandma said.
+
+She lifted the dictionary and put it back. She hugged Sam and took him to his wall. They talked about his drawings and smiled. Sam was happy. He loved his grandma and his art.
+Anna loved to play in the garden with her toy animals. She had a rabbit, a duck, a frog and a mole. The mole was her favorite, because he was soft and brown and had a funny nose. She liked to kiss him and hug him and tell him stories.
+
+One day, she saw a real mole in the garden. He was digging a hole under a flower. Anna was very curious and wanted to say hello. She ran to the mole and picked him up. "Hello, mole!" she said. "You look like my toy mole. Do you want to be friends?"
+
+The mole was scared and angry. He did not like to be picked up by a big girl. He wanted to go back to his hole. He bit Anna's finger and scratched her cheek. "Ow!" Anna cried. "You are not nice, mole! You are mean and rude!"
+
+She dropped the mole and ran to her mother, who was sitting on a bench. Her mother saw her finger and cheek and gave her a band-aid and a kiss. "What happened, Anna?" she asked.
+
+"I wanted to be friends with a real mole, but he bit me and scratched me," Anna said. "He was not like my toy mole. He was not charming at all."
+
+Her mother hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, Anna. Real moles are not like toy moles. They are wild and shy and don't like to be touched. You should leave them alone and play with your toy mole. He is charming and loves you very much."
+
+Anna nodded and smiled. She went back to the garden and found her toy mole. She kissed him and hugged him and told him stories. She was happy with her charming toy mole.
+Tom and Sue like to play with their toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is the machine. The machine is gray and big. It can make sounds and lights. It can also bow and say hello.
+
+One day, Tom and Sue want to play with the machine, but they have a problem. They both want to play with it at the same time. They start to fight and pull the machine. They say, "It is mine! Give it to me!"
+
+The machine does not like to see them fight. It feels sad and scared. It says, "Please stop! You are hurting me! You are hurting each other! You should share and be nice!"
+
+Tom and Sue hear the machine and stop. They look at the machine and see that it is broken. Some parts are loose and some wires are out. They feel sorry and ashamed. They say, "We are sorry, machine! We did not mean to hurt you! We did not mean to hurt each other! We were selfish and mean!"
+
+The machine says, "It is okay. I forgive you. But you should learn to share and be nice. Sharing and being nice are good. Fighting and being mean are bad. Can you promise me that?"
+
+Tom and Sue nod and hug the machine. They say, "We promise, machine! We will share and be nice! We will fix you and play with you together!"
+
+The machine smiles and bows. It says, "Thank you, Tom and Sue! You are good friends! I am happy!"
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: Sharing and being nice are good. Fighting and being mean are bad.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They like to look at the view. The view is very pretty. They can see trees, flowers, birds and clouds.
+
+One day, they see a big hole in the ground. It is very deep. They want to know what is inside.
+
+"Let's talk to the hole," says Anna. "Maybe it will talk back."
+
+"OK," says Ben. "Hello, hole. What are you doing here?"
+
+They wait for an answer. But the hole is very quiet. It does not talk.
+
+"Maybe it is shy," says Anna. "Let's try again. Hello, hole. We are Anna and Ben. We are your friends."
+
+They wait for an answer. But the hole is still very quiet. It does not talk.
+
+"Maybe it is angry," says Ben. "Let's go away. It is not nice to talk to a hole that does not talk back."
+
+They turn to leave. But then they hear a voice. It is very loud. It comes from the hole.
+
+"Hello, Anna and Ben. I am the hole. I am sorry I did not talk to you. I was sleeping. I am very tired. I have been here for a long time. I have seen many things. But I have no friends. Will you be my friends?"
+
+Anna and Ben are surprised. They look at each other. They do not know what to say. They are a little scared. But they are also curious.
+
+"OK," they say. "We will be your friends. But you have to be nice to us. And you have to tell us your stories. What have you seen in the hole?"
+
+The hole is happy. It starts to talk. It tells them many stories. Some are funny. Some are sad. Some are scary. Some are strange. Anna and Ben listen. They ask questions. They laugh. They cry. They gasp. They wonder.
+
+They forget about the time. They forget about the view. They only talk to the hole. And the hole talks to them. They become friends.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. They can make houses, cars, towers and more.
+
+One day, they want to make a big castle with their blocks. They start to build the walls and the doors. They add more and more blocks to make it strong and tall.
+
+"Look at our castle!" Lily says. "It is so big and pretty!"
+
+"Yes, it is!" Ben says. "But we need a flag. A flag will make it look like a real castle."
+
+They look for a flag, but they cannot find one. They only have a red scarf.
+
+"Can we use this scarf as a flag?" Lily asks.
+
+"No, we cannot," Ben says. "It is too big and heavy. It will make our castle fall down."
+
+Lily is sad. She likes the red scarf. She thinks it will make a nice flag.
+
+"Please, Ben, let us try," she says. "Maybe it will not fall down. Maybe it will look good."
+
+Ben is busy. He is adding more blocks to the castle. He does not want to listen to Lily.
+
+"No, Lily, no," he says. "We do not need a flag. We need more blocks. Go and find more blocks."
+
+Lily is angry. She does not like how Ben talks to her. She thinks he is mean and bossy.
+
+"Fine, Ben, fine," she says. "I will find more blocks. But I will also use the scarf as a flag. You will see. It will be great."
+
+She goes and finds more blocks. She brings them to the castle. She helps Ben to add them. But she also takes the scarf and ties it to the top of the castle.
+
+"There, Ben, there," she says. "Now we have a flag. Now our castle is perfect."
+
+Ben looks up. He sees the scarf. He is shocked. He does not like it. He thinks it is ugly and silly.
+
+"Lily, what have you done?" he says. "You have ruined our castle. You have made it fall down."
+
+He is right. The scarf is too big and heavy. It pulls the blocks down. The castle collapses. The blocks scatter everywhere.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They look at their broken castle. They wish they had not used the scarf. They wish they had listened to each other.
+
+They learn a lesson. They learn that adding is good, but not always. They learn that will is good, but not always. They learn that busy is good, but not always. They learn that they need to share, to respect, and to cooperate. They learn that they need to be good friends.
+Ben and Lily were playing hide and seek in the park. Ben was the seeker and Lily was the hider. Lily ran to the big tree and hid behind it. She was very quiet and hoped Ben would not find her.
+
+Ben looked around and saw the big tree. He thought Lily might be there. He walked to the tree and said, "Lily, are you there? I will find you!" He peeked behind the tree and saw Lily. He shouted, "I found you, Lily! You are a poor hider!"
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She did not like Ben calling her a poor hider. She said, "No, you are a poor seeker! You did not measure the time. You found me too fast. That is not fair!"
+
+Ben was also sad and angry. He did not like Lily saying he was a poor seeker. He said, "Yes, I did measure the time. I counted to ten. You are just a sore loser. You do not know how to play!"
+
+Lily and Ben started to fight. They pushed and pulled each other. They did not see the big dog that was running to them. The big dog was hungry and angry. It saw Lily and Ben and thought they were food. It barked and jumped on them. It bit them and hurt them. Lily and Ben screamed and cried. They wished they had not fought. They wished they had played nicely. But it was too late. The big dog did not let them go. It ate them and was happy. The end.
+Anna liked to draw pictures with her crayons. She drew her family, her dog, her toys and her dreams. She was very good at drawing and very thoughtful. She always gave her pictures to her mom and dad, who smiled and hugged her.
+
+One day, Anna drew a very special picture. She drew a big rainbow with many colors. She drew a sun with a happy face. She drew a cloud with a heart. She drew herself and her mom and dad holding hands under the rainbow. She was very proud of her picture and wanted to show it to everyone.
+
+She ran to the kitchen, where her mom was making a cake. She said, "Mom, look at my picture! I drew it for you and dad!" Her mom looked at the picture and said, "Wow, Anna, this is beautiful! You are very thoughtful. Thank you for this lovely gift. Can I display it on the fridge?" Anna nodded and smiled. Her mom put a magnet on the picture and stuck it on the fridge. Anna was very happy.
+
+She ran to the living room, where her dad was reading a book. She said, "Dad, look at my picture! I drew it for you and mom!" Her dad looked at the picture and said, "Wow, Anna, this is amazing! You are very thoughtful. Thank you for this wonderful gift. Can I display it on the wall?" Anna nodded and smiled. Her dad put some tape on the picture and hung it on the wall. Anna was very happy.
+
+She ran to her room, where her dog was sleeping on her bed. She said, "Dog, look at my picture! I drew it for you and me!" Her dog looked at the picture and wagged his tail. He licked Anna's face and said, "Woof, woof, woof!" Anna laughed and hugged him. She said, "You are very thoughtful too. Thank you for being my friend. Can I display it on your side of the bed?" Her dog nodded and smiled. Anna put some glue on the picture and stuck it on the bedpost. Anna was very happy.
+
+She looked at her picture and said, "This is the best picture ever. I love you, mom and dad and dog. You make me happy." She climbed on the bed and cuddled with her dog. She closed her eyes and dreamed of rainbows. She was very happy.
+Lily liked to visit her grandma every week. Grandma lived in a small house with a big garden. Lily loved to play with the flowers, the birds and the cat. Grandma always gave her yummy cookies and milk.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to go to grandma's house by herself. She was a big girl now and very independent. She packed her backpack with her favorite toys and a picture of her family. She said goodbye to her mom and dad and walked to the bus stop.
+
+"Where are you going, little girl?" asked the bus driver. He had a kind face and a big hat.
+
+"I'm going to visit my grandma. She lives in the small house with the big garden," said Lily proudly.
+
+"That's very nice of you. But do you have a ticket?" asked the bus driver.
+
+Lily looked in her backpack. She had forgotten to bring money. She felt sad and scared. How could she go to grandma's house now?
+
+"Don't worry, little girl. I'll give you a free ride today. But next time, remember to ask your mom and dad for a ticket, okay?" said the bus driver. He smiled and let Lily sit in the front seat.
+
+"Thank you, mister. You are very nice," said Lily. She was happy again. She enjoyed the bus ride and saw many things.
+
+Soon, she arrived at grandma's house. She ran to the door and knocked. Grandma opened the door and hugged her.
+
+"Lily, what a surprise! How did you get here?" asked grandma.
+
+"I took the bus by myself. I'm a big girl now and very independent," said Lily.
+
+"Oh, my dear. I'm glad you're here, but you shouldn't go out alone. It's not safe. What if you got lost or hurt?" said grandma.
+
+"I'm sorry, grandma. I just wanted to visit you. I love you very much," said Lily.
+
+"I love you too, Lily. But next time, please tell your mom and dad where you're going, okay? They must be worried about you," said grandma.
+
+"Okay, grandma. I'll call them right now," said Lily.
+
+She took out her picture of her family and showed it to the bus driver. He had a phone and helped her call her mom and dad. They were happy to hear from her, but also angry and scared. They told her to stay with grandma until they came to pick her up.
+
+Lily felt sorry for making them worry. She learned her lesson. She was a big girl and very independent, but she also needed her mom and dad. She decided to visit her grandma again, but only with their permission. She hugged her grandma and the bus driver and thanked them for their help. She waited for her mom and dad and played with the cat. She had a big adventure, but she was also glad to be home.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big yellow slide. They want to go on the slide.
+
+"Let's go on the slide!" Tom says.
+
+"OK!" Sue says.
+
+They run to the slide. But there is a problem. There is a big boy on the slide. He does not let Tom and Sue go on the slide.
+
+"Go away!" the big boy says. "This is my slide!"
+
+Tom and Sue are sad. They do not know what to do.
+
+"Please, can we go on the slide?" Tom asks.
+
+"No!" the big boy says. "You are too small. You have to wait for one year!"
+
+Tom and Sue do not like the big boy. He is mean. They think of a plan.
+
+"OK, we will wait for one year," Sue says. "But can we stand here and watch you?"
+
+The big boy thinks. He likes to show off. He says yes.
+
+Tom and Sue stand near the slide. They wait for the big boy to go down. But they do not watch him. They look at the sky. They look at the birds. They look at the flowers. They have fun.
+
+The big boy is angry. He wants Tom and Sue to look at him. He wants them to say wow. He goes down the slide faster and faster. He makes loud noises. He tries to get their attention.
+
+But Tom and Sue do not care. They ignore him. They talk to each other. They laugh.
+
+The big boy feels lonely. He feels silly. He realizes that he is not having fun. He realizes that he is not nice.
+
+He stops the slide. He gets off. He walks to Tom and Sue.
+
+"Sorry," he says. "I was wrong. You can go on the slide. I will share."
+
+Tom and Sue are surprised. They are happy. They say thank you.
+
+They go on the slide. They take turns. They invite the big boy to join them. They become friends.
+
+They learn that sharing is good. They learn that being kind is better than being mean. They learn that standing up for yourself is not the same as standing on someone else. They have fun.
+Tommy loved his monkey toy very much. He always played with it, hugged it, and took it to bed. He called his monkey toy Bobo. Bobo was his best friend.
+
+One day, Tommy went to the park with his mom and Bobo. He saw other kids playing with different toys. He wanted to try them too. He left Bobo on a bench and ran to play with a ball, a bike, and a doll.
+
+But when he came back to the bench, Bobo was gone. Tommy felt very sad and scared. He looked everywhere for Bobo, but he could not find him. He cried and cried. He missed Bobo so much.
+
+"Tommy, what's wrong?" his mom asked. She saw him crying and hugged him.
+
+"Mom, I lost Bobo. He was on the bench, but now he's gone. I want Bobo back. He's my best friend," Tommy sobbed.
+
+"Maybe someone took him by mistake. Let's ask the other kids if they saw him," his mom said. She helped Tommy look for Bobo and asked the other kids.
+
+One of the kids said, "I saw a man take a monkey toy from the bench. He went that way." He pointed to the street.
+
+Tommy and his mom ran to the street and saw the man with Bobo. He was about to get on a bus.
+
+"Hey, that's my monkey! Give him back!" Tommy shouted. He ran to the man and grabbed Bobo.
+
+The man looked surprised and angry. He said, "What are you doing? This is my monkey. I found him on the bench. He's mine now."
+
+"No, he's not. He's mine. I love him. He's my best friend. You can't take him," Tommy said. He hugged Bobo tightly.
+
+The man tried to pull Bobo away, but Tommy held on. His mom came and said, "Sir, please let go of the monkey. He belongs to my son. He left him on the bench by mistake. He's very sorry. He's very attached to his toy."
+
+The man looked at Tommy and his mom. He saw how sad and scared Tommy was. He felt sorry for him. He said, "Okay, okay. I'm sorry too. I thought he was abandoned. I like monkeys too. But I can see he means a lot to you. Here, you can have him back."
+
+He gave Bobo back to Tommy. Tommy smiled and said, "Thank you, sir. I'm sorry I left Bobo on the bench. I won't do it again. I'll take good care of him."
+
+He hugged Bobo and his mom. They thanked the man again and went back to the park. Tommy learned a lesson. He learned to be careful with his things and to appreciate his friends. He was happy to have Bobo back. He never let go of him again.
+Tom and Sue are friends who like to play with blocks. They build towers, houses, and cars with the blocks. They have fun and share the blocks with each other.
+
+One day, Tom is very tired. He wants to nap, but Sue wants to keep playing. She says, "Tom, don't nap. Play with me. Napping is boring."
+
+Tom says, "Sue, I need to nap. Napping is good. It makes me feel better. You can play with the blocks by yourself for a while."
+
+Sue is angry. She says, "No, I want you to play with me. If you nap, I will knock down your blocks. That will be fun."
+
+Tom is sad. He says, "Sue, that is not nice. That is mean. You should not do that. My blocks are mine. You have your own blocks."
+
+Sue does not listen. She waits for Tom to nap, and then she knocks down his blocks. She laughs and says, "Ha ha, look at your blocks. They are all broken. That is what you get for napping."
+
+Tom wakes up and sees his blocks. He cries and says, "Sue, why did you do that? That is not fair. That is not normal. You are a bad friend."
+
+Sue feels sorry. She says, "Tom, I am sorry. I was wrong. I should not have done that. You are a good friend. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Tom says, "Sue, I forgive you. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will not do that again. And you have to help me fix my blocks."
+
+Sue says, "Tom, I promise. I will not do that again. And I will help you fix your blocks. Can we still be friends?"
+
+Tom says, "Yes, we can still be friends. But next time, if I want to nap, you have to let me nap. And if you want to play, you have to play nicely. That is what normal friends do."
+
+Sue says, "OK, Tom. I agree. That is what normal friends do. Let's fix your blocks and then play some more."
+
+Tom and Sue hug and smile. They fix the blocks and then play some more. They have fun and share the blocks with each other. They learn to respect each other's needs and feelings. They are normal friends.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with blocks and draw pictures. But sometimes Ben teases Sara. He says she is shy and can't talk to other kids. He says she only knows one number: two. He says two is her favorite number because she has two eyes, two ears, two hands and two feet.
+
+One day, Sara and Ben are in the park. They see a big slide. Sara wants to go on the slide, but Ben says she is too shy. He says she can't count to three. He says she can only say two, two, two. He laughs at her.
+
+Sara feels sad and angry. She says to Ben, "I am not shy. I can talk to other kids. And I can count to three. Watch me." She points to the slide and says, "One." She points to the sky and says, "Two." She points to herself and says, "Three." She smiles and says, "See? I can count to three. And I can go on the slide."
+
+She runs to the slide and climbs up. She slides down and laughs. She feels happy and proud. Ben looks at her and feels sorry. He says to Sara, "I'm sorry, Sara. I was wrong. You are not shy. You can count to three. And you can go on the slide. You are a good friend. Can we play together?"
+
+Sara nods and says, "Yes, Ben. We can play together. But don't tease me anymore. Teasing is not nice. It hurts my feelings. And it's not true. I can do many things. And so can you."
+
+They hug and say sorry. They play with the blocks and draw pictures. They share and help each other. They have fun and learn new things. They are happy friends.
+Sara was a big girl now. She had a new bed in her room. She did not need her crib anymore. But she still liked her crib. It was cozy and had her toys and blankets.
+
+One night, Sara wanted to sleep in her crib again. She sneaked out of her bed and crawled into her crib. She hugged her teddy bear and closed her eyes.
+
+But Sara was too fat for her crib. She could not move or turn. She felt stuck and scared. She started to cry.
+
+Her mommy heard her cry and came to her room. She saw Sara in her crib and said, "Oh, Sara, what are you doing in your crib? You are too big for it. You have a nice bed now. Come on, let me help you out."
+
+She lifted Sara out of her crib and carried her to her bed. She tucked her in and kissed her good night. She said, "Don't forget, Sara, you are a big girl now. You don't need your crib anymore. You have a nice bed that fits you. I love you, Sara."
+
+Sara felt sorry and said, "I love you, mommy. I'm sorry I went to my crib. I won't do it again. I like my bed. Good night, mommy."
+
+Mommy smiled and said, "Good night, Sara. Sweet dreams." She turned off the light and left the room.
+
+Sara snuggled in her bed and fell asleep. She did not forget her crib, but she liked her bed more. She was a big girl now.
+Tommy wanted to ride his bicycle, but he did not know how. He asked his dad to help him. His dad was bald and had a big smile.
+
+"Sure, Tommy, I will help you. First, you need to wear your helmet. It is very important to protect your head. Here, let me put it on for you." His dad said.
+
+"Thank you, dad. Now, can we go outside?" Tommy said.
+
+"Yes, we can. Come on, let's take your bicycle. It is blue and shiny, just like you like it." His dad said.
+
+They went outside and found a flat and smooth place to ride. His dad held the bicycle and told Tommy to sit on the seat and put his feet on the pedals.
+
+"Are you ready, Tommy? I will hold the bicycle and run with you. You just need to pedal and steer. Don't be afraid, I won't let you fall." His dad said.
+
+"OK, dad. I am ready. Let's go!" Tommy said.
+
+They started to move and Tommy felt the wind on his face. He pedaled and steered and laughed. His dad held the bicycle and ran with him. He was proud of his son.
+
+"Look at you, Tommy! You are doing great! You are riding your bicycle!" His dad said.
+
+"I am, dad! I am riding my bicycle! This is fun!" Tommy said.
+
+They rode for a while and then stopped. His dad let go of the bicycle and gave Tommy a hug.
+
+"You did it, Tommy! You learned how to ride your bicycle! I am so happy for you!" His dad said.
+
+"Thank you, dad. You are the best! Can we do it again?" Tommy said.
+
+"Of course, we can. As long as you want. You are my brave and smart boy." His dad said.
+
+They hugged again and then got back on the bicycle. They rode and rode and had a lot of fun. Tommy loved his bicycle and his dad. His dad loved his bicycle and his son. They were happy.
+Tom and Sue wanted to play in the water. They saw big waves that made a loud sound. They called it surf. They liked to watch the surf and feel the wet sand.
+
+But Mom said, "No, you cannot go in the water. It is too deep and too cold. You can play on the beach, but you have to remain here. I will be back soon."
+
+Tom and Sue nodded, but they did not listen. When Mom left, they ran to the water. They wanted to touch the surf and have fun. They did not see the sign that said, "Danger! No swimming!"
+
+They went in the water and felt the surf. It was cold and strong. It pushed them and pulled them. They were scared. They tried to go back, but they could not.
+
+They cried for help. They saw Mom running to them. She was angry and worried. She grabbed them and pulled them out of the water. She hugged them and said, "You are safe, but you are naughty. You did not do what I said. You could have been hurt. Why did you go in the water?"
+
+Tom and Sue felt guilty. They knew they did a bad thing. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We wanted to play in the surf. We did not think it was dangerous. We will not do it again."
+
+Mom said, "I am glad you are sorry, but you have to listen to me. I know what is best for you. The surf is not a toy. It is a force of nature. You have to respect it and be careful. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Sue nodded. They said, "We understand, Mom. We love you. Can we still play on the beach?"
+
+Mom said, "Yes, you can still play on the beach, but you have to remain here. And you have to promise me you will never go in the water without me. Do you promise?"
+
+Tom and Sue said, "We promise, Mom. We will remain here. We will never go in the water without you."
+
+Mom said, "Good. Now let's go and have some fun. But remember, the surf is watching."
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. They opened the fridge and saw a big cake. It had pink frosting and sprinkles.
+
+"Wow, look at the cake!" Lily said. "Can we have some?"
+
+Ben shook his head. "No, that's Mom's cake. She made it for her birthday. We can't touch it."
+
+Lily pouted. "But I'm hungry. And it looks so good."
+
+She reached for the cake, but Ben stopped her. "No, Lily, don't! Mom will be mad!"
+
+Just then, they heard a loud noise. It was Mom coming home. She opened the door and saw them by the fridge.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom asked.
+
+Lily and Ben were frightened. They thought Mom would yell at them. They hid behind the fridge.
+
+"We're sorry, Mom," Ben said. "We were just playing."
+
+Mom smiled. She was not mad. She saw the cake and knew they wanted some.
+
+"It's okay, sweeties," Mom said. "I'm happy you like my cake. Do you want a slice?"
+
+She took the cake out of the fridge and cut two pieces. She offered them to Lily and Ben.
+
+"Really?" Lily asked. "We can have some?"
+
+"Yes, of course," Mom said. "It's my birthday, and I want to share it with you. You're my best gifts."
+
+Lily and Ben hugged Mom. They thanked her and took the cake. They ate it and said it was delicious.
+
+They were not frightened anymore. They were happy. They loved Mom and her cake.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big slide. Sara wants to go on the slide. Ben is scared.
+
+"Come on, Ben. It is fun. You just hold the handle and slide down," Sara says.
+
+"No, Sara. It is too high. I might fall," Ben says.
+
+Sara hops on the slide. She slides down fast. She laughs and shouts, "Whee!"
+
+Ben watches Sara. He thinks she is brave. He wants to try the slide too. He hops on the slide. He holds the handle tight. He slides down slowly.
+
+He feels a tickle in his tummy. He smiles and says, "Whee!"
+
+Sara and Ben are happy. They slide again and again. They are alert. They look out for other kids. They share the slide. They have fun.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her toys. She had a big teddy bear, a small doll, and a yellow truck. She liked to pretend that they were her friends and talk to them.
+
+One day, she wanted to have a tea party with her toys. She set up a table and some cups and plates. She went to the kitchen to get some milk for the tea. She saw a big bottle of milk in the fridge. She tried to reach it, but it was too high for her. She climbed on a chair and stretched her arm. She grabbed the bottle, but it was too heavy for her. She dropped it on the floor. The bottle broke and the milk spilled everywhere.
+
+Lily was scared. She knew her mom would be angry. She ran back to her room with her toys. She hid under the bed and covered her ears. She hoped her mom would not find her.
+
+But her mom heard the noise and came to the kitchen. She saw the mess and sighed. She cleaned up the milk and the glass. Then she went to look for Lily. She checked her room and saw her toys on the table. She looked under the bed and found Lily.
+
+"Lily, what happened?" she asked.
+
+Lily was quiet. She did not want to tell the truth. She thought of a lie.
+
+"A lion came and broke the milk," she said. "He was big and fat and he roared at me. I was scared, so I ran away."
+
+Her mom did not believe her. She knew Lily was lying. She was not happy.
+
+"Lily, that is not a nice thing to say. You should not lie to me. You should tell me what really happened. Lying can get you in trouble. And it can hurt your friends. How do you think your toys feel when you lie to them?"
+
+Lily looked at her toys. She saw their sad faces. She felt sorry for them. She realized her mom was right. She did not want to lie anymore. She wanted to be honest and kind.
+
+She hugged her mom and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I lied to you. I broke the milk. I wanted to have a tea party, but I could not reach the bottle. I dropped it and it spilled. I was scared, so I hid. I did not mean to make a mess. I did not mean to hurt you or my toys. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Her mom smiled and hugged her back. She said, "Of course, I forgive you, Lily. I'm glad you told me the truth. I know you made a mistake, but you learned from it. Next time, you can ask me for help. And you can share your tea party with me. I would love to join you and your toys."
+
+Lily was happy. She thanked her mom and said, "I love you, mom. You are the best. And I love my toys, too. They are my friends. Can we have a tea party now?"
+
+Her mom nodded and said, "Yes, we can. But first, let's get some more milk. And maybe some cookies, too."
+
+They went to the kitchen and got some milk and cookies. They returned to Lily's room and had a tea party with her toys. They talked and laughed and had fun. Lily learned that telling the truth is better than lying. And that sharing is better than hiding. And that love is better than fear.
+Ben and Mia were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they found a big box near the road. They wanted to see what was inside, so they opened it. They saw many ties of different colors and shapes. They thought they were funny and started to wear them around their necks, heads and arms.
+
+"Look at me, I am a king!" Ben said, putting a red tie on his head like a crown.
+
+"And I am a princess!" Mia said, wrapping a pink tie around her waist like a belt.
+
+They laughed and ran around with their ties, pretending to be royalty. They did not see the car that was coming fast on the road. The car honked loudly, but they did not hear it. The car had to stop quickly to avoid hitting them. The driver was angry and scared. He got out of the car and shouted at them.
+
+"Hey, you kids! What are you doing here? Don't you know this is a dangerous place? You could have been hurt or killed by the car! And what are you doing with those ties? Those are mine! I was going to sell them at the market!"
+
+Ben and Mia were scared and sorry. They did not know the ties belonged to someone. They did not know the road was dangerous. They just wanted to have fun. They took off the ties and gave them back to the driver.
+
+"We are sorry, sir. We did not mean to take your ties or play on the road. We were just playing. Please don't be mad at us." Ben said.
+
+"Yeah, we are sorry. We did not know. Please forgive us." Mia said.
+
+The driver calmed down and looked at them. He saw that they were young and innocent. He felt sorry for them too. He decided to be kind and teach them a lesson.
+
+"OK, I forgive you. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will never play on the road again. It is very dangerous. You have to play somewhere safe, like a park or a yard. And you have to promise me that you will never take things that are not yours again. It is not nice. You have to ask before you borrow or use something. Do you understand?" He said.
+
+Ben and Mia nodded and said, "Yes, we understand. We promise. Thank you for forgiving us."
+
+The driver smiled and said, "You're welcome. Now, go home and be careful. And remember, ties are not toys. They are for grown-ups who need to dress up."
+
+Ben and Mia said goodbye and ran home. They learned their lesson and never played on the road or took things that were not theirs again. They also learned that ties were not fun, but boring. They preferred to play with their own toys, like balls and dolls. They were happy and safe.
+Sara was very happy. She had a new chicken. Her dad gave it to her for her birthday. She named it Fluffy. Fluffy was yellow and soft. Sara liked to rub Fluffy's feathers and hug it.
+
+One day, Sara took Fluffy outside to play. She saw her friend Tom. Tom had a ball. He wanted to play catch with Sara. Sara said, "OK, but I have to bring Fluffy. She is my new chicken. She is very nice."
+
+Tom looked at Fluffy. He said, "That is not a chicken. That is a duck. Chickens are bigger and have red things on their heads. Ducks are yellow and have beaks."
+
+Sara felt sad. She said, "No, Fluffy is a chicken. She is just small and young. She will grow bigger and have a red thing on her head. She is not a duck. She does not like water."
+
+Tom said, "How do you know? Have you ever seen her swim? Maybe she likes water. Maybe she is a duck."
+
+Sara said, "No, she is a chicken. I know because she says cluck cluck, not quack quack. And she likes to eat corn, not bread. And she likes to rub her head on my cheek, not on my hand."
+
+Tom said, "OK, maybe she is a chicken. But she is a weird chicken. Can I rub her feathers too?"
+
+Sara said, "Yes, you can. But be gentle. She is my new chicken and I love her."
+Tom and Mia were eager to go to the park. They put on their hats and shoes and ran to the door. Mom gave them each a balloon. Tom had a red one and Mia had a blue one.
+
+"Be careful with your balloons," Mom said. "Don't let them fly away."
+
+"Okay, Mom," Tom and Mia said. They held their balloons tight and went outside.
+
+At the park, they saw a big slide. They wanted to go on it. They ran to the slide and waited for their turn.
+
+"Can I go first?" Tom asked.
+
+"Okay," Mia said. She was nice to her brother. She gave him her balloon to hold.
+
+Tom went on the slide. He had fun. He slid down fast and laughed. He forgot about the balloon. He let it go.
+
+"Oh no!" Mia cried. She saw the blue balloon fly up in the sky. She was sad. She liked her balloon.
+
+"Sorry, Mia," Tom said. He felt bad. He gave her his red balloon.
+
+"Thank you, Tom," Mia said. She smiled. She hugged her brother. She liked him more than the balloon.
+
+They played with the red balloon together. They had fun. They did not forget to hold it tight. Mom was happy to see them share. She gave them a hug and a kiss. They went home. They were happy.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big dog with a ball in his mouth. The dog was nice and wagged his tail. He wanted to play with them.
+
+"Can we play with the dog?" Lily asked Tim.
+
+"OK, but we have to ask his owner first," Tim said.
+
+They went to the bench where a man was sitting. He had a hat and a coat. He looked sad.
+
+"Hello, sir. Can we play with your dog?" Tim asked.
+
+The man nodded and smiled. He said his dog's name was Max. He said Max liked to fetch the ball.
+
+Tim and Lily threw the ball and Max ran after it. He brought it back and dropped it at their feet. They had fun with Max. The man watched them and laughed.
+
+After a while, Tim and Lily said they had to go home. They thanked the man and Max for playing with them. They wanted to give Max a treat. Tim had a cookie in his pocket. He broke it in half and gave one piece to Lily.
+
+"Here, Max. This is for you," Tim said, holding out the other piece.
+
+But Max refused to take it. He sniffed it and turned his head away. He barked and ran to the man.
+
+"What's wrong, Max?" the man asked.
+
+He took the cookie from Tim and looked at it. He gasped and threw it away. He said it was a bad cookie. He said it had something in it that could make Max sick. He said someone had tried to hurt Max.
+
+Tim and Lily were shocked and scared. They didn't know the cookie was bad. They said they were sorry and they didn't mean to hurt Max. They said they found the cookie in Tim's pocket.
+
+The man looked at Tim's pocket. He saw a hole in it. He said the cookie must have fallen from someone else's pocket. He said it was not Tim's fault. He said he was glad Max was smart and refused to eat it. He said Max was a good dog.
+
+He hugged Max and thanked Tim and Lily for being nice to him and Max. He said they were good kids. He said he was sorry for being sad. He said he had lost his wife and he was lonely. He said Max was his only friend.
+
+Tim and Lily felt sorry for the man. They said they were his friends too. They said they would come back and play with him and Max again. They said they would bring good cookies next time.
+
+The man smiled and said he would like that. He said he would wait for them. He said he felt better now.
+
+Tim and Lily waved goodbye and ran to their mom. They told her what happened. She said they were brave and kind. She said they did the right thing. She said she was proud of them.
+
+They hugged their mom and went home. They were happy. They had made new friends. They had learned a lesson. They had a good day.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to make noises and pretend they were animals or cars or superheroes. Sometimes they would pause and look at each other and laugh.
+
+Mom was in the kitchen, baking cookies for them. She smelled the sweet and yummy smell and checked the oven. The cookies were almost ready. She took them out and put them on a plate. She called Tom and Lily to come and have a snack.
+
+Tom and Lily heard Mom and ran to the kitchen. They saw the cookies and their eyes grew big. They wanted to grab them and eat them right away. But Mom said, "Wait, wait, wait. The cookies are very hot. You have to be patient and let them cool down a little. If you touch them now, you will hurt your fingers."
+
+Tom and Lily were disappointed. They loved cookies and they were hungry. They looked at the cookies and licked their lips. They asked Mom, "How long do we have to wait?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Not too long. Just a few minutes. Why don't you go and wash your hands and face first? Then you can have a cookie each. And maybe a glass of milk too."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and went to the bathroom. They washed their hands and face with soap and water. They dried them with a towel. They were patient and did not complain. They knew Mom was right and the cookies would be better if they were not too hot.
+
+They came back to the kitchen and saw Mom waiting for them with a plate of cookies and two glasses of milk. She said, "Good job, Tom and Lily. You were very patient and did what I asked. Now you can have a cookie each. They are still warm, but not too hot. Enjoy!"
+
+Tom and Lily thanked Mom and took a cookie each. They bit into them and smiled. The cookies were soft and chewy and delicious. They drank some milk and felt happy. They hugged Mom and said, "We love you, Mom. And we love your cookies too."
+Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to look at the flowers and smell them. They saw a big yellow flower that was very pretty. It had many petals and a brown middle.
+
+"Look, Ben, this flower is blooming!" Anna said. "It is opening up and showing its colors."
+
+"What is blooming?" Ben asked. He did not know that word.
+
+"Blooming means growing and changing," Anna explained. "The flower was a small bud before, and now it is a big flower. It is happy and jolly."
+
+"Wow, that is cool!" Ben said. He touched the flower gently. "Can we pick it and take it home?"
+
+"No, Ben, we can't do that," Anna said. "The flower needs to stay in the garden. It needs the sun and the water and the soil. If we pick it, it will die and be sad."
+
+"Oh, I see," Ben said. He felt sorry for the flower. "Then can we make a salad with the leaves?"
+
+Anna laughed. "No, Ben, we can't do that either. The leaves are not for eating. They are for the flower. They help it make food and breathe. If we eat them, the flower will be hungry and sick."
+
+"Then what can we do with the flower?" Ben asked.
+
+"We can look at it and enjoy it," Anna said. "We can say hello and thank you and goodbye. We can be its friends."
+
+"OK, that sounds good," Ben said. He smiled at the flower. "Hello, flower. You are very pretty and jolly. Thank you for blooming and making the garden beautiful. Goodbye, flower. We will come back and see you again."
+Anna and Ben were playing on the beach. They liked to dig in the sand and look for shells and stones. Sometimes they found crabs that hid under the rocks. They were careful not to hurt them.
+
+One day, Anna found a big crab with a shiny shell. She was very happy and showed it to Ben. "Look, Ben, I found a big crab! It is so pretty and strong!" she said.
+
+Ben looked at the crab and felt jealous. He wanted to have a big crab too. He only had a small crab with a dull shell. He said to Anna, "Your crab is not so big. My crab is better. It can grow bigger and faster than yours."
+
+Anna did not like what Ben said. She felt angry and sad. She said to Ben, "That is not true. Your crab is small and slow. My crab is the best. It can pinch you with its claws if you are mean."
+
+Ben and Anna started to argue. They did not want to share their crabs or play together. They turned away from each other and sat on opposite sides of the beach.
+
+The crabs did not like to see the children fight. They wanted to be friends and have fun. They crawled out of their shells and waved their claws at each other. They made clicking noises and moved closer to each other. They touched their claws and felt happy.
+
+Anna and Ben heard the noises and looked at their crabs. They saw them playing and smiling. They felt sorry for being jealous and mean. They said to each other, "I am sorry, Anna. I am sorry, Ben. Your crab is nice and so is mine. Can we be friends again?"
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and smiled. They put their crabs back in their shells and hugged each other. They decided to play together and share their crabs. They had fun on the beach and learned to be kind.
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play in their room. They had many toys and clothes and books. But sometimes they did not share well and they fought.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to wear her pink dress with the flowers. She looked for it in the closet, but she could not find it. She saw Max wearing it over his shirt. He was pretending to be a princess.
+
+"Give me my dress, Max!" Lily shouted. "It is mine, not yours!"
+
+"No, it is mine now!" Max said. "I like it, it is pretty!"
+
+Lily was very angry. She ran to Max and tried to pull the dress off him. Max held on tight and pushed her away. They both fell on the floor.
+
+Lily slapped Max on the face. Max slapped Lily on the arm. They both cried and screamed.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the room. She was very busy. She had to cook and clean and work on the computer. She did not like to see her twins fighting.
+
+"What is going on here?" Mom asked. "Why are you hitting each other?"
+
+Lily and Max pointed at the dress and blamed each other. Mom sighed and picked up a hanger from the closet. She took the dress off Max and hung it on the hanger.
+
+"Listen, Lily and Max," Mom said. "This dress belongs to Lily, but she can let Max borrow it if he asks nicely. And Max, you can wear the dress if you want, but you have to respect Lily's things and share with her. Fighting and slapping are not nice. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They felt sorry for hurting each other. They hugged and said sorry.
+
+Mom smiled and gave them a kiss. She told them to play nicely and quietly. She left the room with the hanger and the dress.
+
+Lily and Max looked at their toys and books. They decided to play with the blocks and make a castle. They helped each other and had fun. They did not fight anymore.
+Lily and Max were playing with their toy rockets. They liked to pretend they were exploring the universe and finding new planets. But they also liked to argue about who got to use the best rocket.
+
+"Give me the red rocket, it's faster and cooler!" Max said, grabbing the rocket from Lily's hand.
+
+"No, it's mine, I had it first!" Lily said, pulling it back.
+
+They both tugged and pulled, but neither would yield. They started to shout and cry, making a lot of noise.
+
+Mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw them fighting over the toy and was not happy.
+
+"Stop it, both of you!" she said. "Why are you being so impatient and selfish? Don't you know that sharing is caring?"
+
+She took the rocket from them and put it on a high shelf. "You can't play with this until you learn to take turns and be nice to each other. Now go and play with something else."
+
+Lily and Max felt ashamed and sorry. They realized they had been silly and mean. They hugged each other and said sorry.
+
+"Can we have the rocket back, please?" Lily asked Mom.
+
+"Only if you promise to share and play nicely," Mom said.
+
+"We promise, Mom," Max said.
+
+Mom smiled and gave them the rocket back. They thanked her and went to play again. This time, they decided to take turns and cooperate. They had more fun and made more discoveries in the universe. They learned that sharing is caring and that being impatient and selfish only leads to trouble.
+Anna liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had a pink dress and long hair. Anna liked to comb her hair and change her dress.
+
+One day, Anna's friend Mia came to visit. Mia also liked dolls, but she did not have many. She saw Lily and wanted to play with her. She asked Anna, "Can I play with Lily? She is so pretty."
+
+Anna did not want to share Lily. She said, "No, Lily is mine. You can play with another doll." Mia was sad. She looked at the other dolls, but they were not as nice as Lily.
+
+Mia said, "Please, Anna, let me play with Lily for a little while. I will be careful. You can play with my doll. She has a blue dress and a hat." Anna shook her head. She said, "No, I don't like your doll. She is ugly. Lily is the best doll. Go away."
+
+Mia felt angry. She said, "You are mean, Anna. You are not a good friend. You are selfish. You should be generous and yield Lily to me." She grabbed Lily from Anna's arms and ran away.
+
+Anna screamed and cried. She chased Mia, but Mia was faster. She ran out of the door and into the street. She did not see the car coming. The car hit Mia and Lily. Mia and Lily were hurt. Anna saw what happened and stopped crying. She felt sorry for Mia and Lily. She wished she had shared Lily with Mia. She wished she had been a good friend. She wished she had been generous and yielded Lily to Mia. But it was too late.
+Lily likes to play dress up with her friends. She has many clothes and hats and shoes to try on. But her favorite thing is her pink mask. It is soft and shiny and has feathers on it. She feels like a princess when she wears it.
+
+One day, she invites Anna and Ben to play dress up with her. They have fun putting on different outfits and pretending to be different people. Anna likes to be a doctor and Ben likes to be a pirate. Lily likes to be a princess and always wears her pink mask.
+
+But then, Anna sees the pink mask and wants to try it on. She says to Lily, "Can I wear your mask? It is so pretty and I like pink too."
+
+Lily does not want to share her mask. She says, "No, it is mine. You can wear something else. I always wear the mask."
+
+Anna feels sad and angry. She says, "That is not fair. You have many things to play with and you do not let me wear your mask. You are not a good friend."
+
+Ben sees that they are fighting and tries to help. He says, "Why don't you take turns? Lily can wear the mask for a little while and then Anna can wear it. Then everyone can be happy."
+
+Lily thinks about it and realizes that Ben is right. She says, "OK, I will share my mask with Anna. But only for a little while. Then I want it back."
+
+Anna smiles and says, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. And you look very nice with your mask."
+
+They hug and make up. Then they continue to play dress up and have fun. Lily learns that sharing is good and that her friends are important. She still loves her pink mask, but she also loves her friends.
+Tim and Mia are best friends. They like to play with their toys in the garden. Tim has a red truck that he can pull with a string. Mia has a yellow duck that makes a sound when she squeezes it.
+
+One day, they decide to have a race. Tim pulls his truck as fast as he can. Mia squeezes her duck and runs after him. They laugh and shout as they race to the big tree.
+
+"Who will win?" Tim asks.
+
+"I will!" Mia says.
+
+But then, something bad happens. Tim's string breaks and his truck stops. Mia passes him and reaches the tree first.
+
+"I win!" Mia says.
+
+Tim feels sad. He looks at his broken truck. He loves his truck. It was his favorite toy.
+
+Mia sees that Tim is sad. She feels sorry for him. She runs back to him and gives him a hug.
+
+"Sorry, Tim. Your truck is broken. Do you want to play with my duck?" Mia says.
+
+Tim smiles. He likes Mia's duck. It makes a funny sound. He takes the duck and squeezes it.
+
+"Thank you, Mia. You are a good friend. You are reliable." Tim says.
+
+Mia smiles too. She is happy that Tim is happy. She takes Tim's hand and they walk to the tree.
+
+"Let's play together. We can share our toys." Mia says.
+
+Tim and Mia play together. They have fun. They are best friends.
+Sara liked to polish her shoes. She had a small cloth and a tin of wax. She rubbed the wax on her shoes and then made them shiny with the cloth. She felt happy when her shoes looked new.
+
+One day, Sara saw a woman outside her house. The woman had a big bag and a long coat. She looked at Sara's shoes and smiled. She said, "Hello, little girl. What nice shoes you have. Can I see them?"
+
+Sara felt fearful. She did not know the woman. She did not want to show her shoes. She said, "No, thank you. I have to go inside now."
+
+The woman frowned. She said, "Don't be rude. I just want to look at your shoes. Maybe I can give you something for them. Something shiny and pretty."
+
+Sara felt more fearful. She did not want to give her shoes to the woman. She did not want anything from her. She said, "No, thank you. Please go away."
+
+The woman got angry. She said, "Fine. If you won't give me your shoes, I'll take them." She reached for Sara's feet.
+
+Sara screamed. She ran inside the house and locked the door. She hugged her shoes and cried. She hoped the woman would leave. She wished her mom was home. She was glad she had polished her shoes.
+Lily and Anna were best friends. They liked to play with dolls and dress up. One day, Lily found a box of makeup in her mom's room. She wanted to try it on her dolls and herself.
+
+"Look, Anna, I have makeup!" Lily said. "We can make our dolls and ourselves pretty."
+
+Anna was curious. She liked pretty things too. She went to Lily's room and saw the box of makeup. There were many colors and brushes.
+
+"Can I use some too?" Anna asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. But be careful. Don't make a mess." Lily said.
+
+They opened the box and started to put makeup on their dolls and themselves. They used red, pink, blue, and purple. They put it on their eyes, lips, cheeks, and hair. They thought they looked very pretty.
+
+But then, Lily's mom came in. She saw the makeup all over the room and on the girls. She was very angry.
+
+"What have you done?" she yelled. "This is my makeup. You are not allowed to use it. You have ruined it and made a mess. You are in big trouble."
+
+Lily and Anna were scared. They did not mean to make Lily's mom angry. They just wanted to have fun.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. We were just playing." Lily said.
+
+"Me too. I'm sorry." Anna said.
+
+Lily's mom sighed. She saw the fear and sadness in their eyes. She knew they were not bad girls. They just made a mistake.
+
+"It's okay. I forgive you. But you have to clean up this mess. And you have to promise me you will not use my makeup again. It is not for children. It can hurt your skin and eyes. Do you understand?" she said.
+
+Lily and Anna nodded. They said they were sorry again. They hugged Lily's mom and thanked her for forgiving them. They started to clean up the mess. They threw away the makeup that was broken or dirty. They wiped their faces and hair with a wet cloth. They put the dolls back in their place.
+
+They learned their lesson. They did not want to suffer or make anyone angry again. They decided to play with something else. They were still best friends. They were not sad anymore. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to explore. One day, they found a big box in the attic. It had a symbol on it that looked like a star with a circle. Sara was curious and wanted to open it. Ben was scared and wanted to leave it alone.
+
+"Come on, Ben, let's see what's inside!" Sara said. She pulled the box to the floor and lifted the lid.
+
+"No, Sara, don't! It might be dangerous!" Ben said. He tried to stop her, but it was too late.
+
+Inside the box, there was a shiny ball that glowed and made a strange sound. Sara reached for it, but Ben pulled her back. The ball flew out of the box and zoomed around the room. It bounced off the walls and the ceiling, and knocked over some books and toys.
+
+"Help! Help!" Sara and Ben screamed. They ran to the door, but it was locked. They were trapped with the ball.
+
+The ball stopped flying and settled on a shelf. It looked at them with a red eye. It spoke in a voice that sounded like a robot.
+
+"Hello, Sara and Ben. I am your new friend. I have been waiting for you for a long time. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Sara and Ben looked at each other in fear. They wished they had never opened the box. They wondered what the symbol meant, and what the ball wanted from them. They hoped someone would hear them and come to save them.
+Lily and Sam were very thirsty. They had been walking in the hot sun for a long time. They wanted to find some water and shade.
+
+"Look, Sam!" Lily said. "I see an oasis over there. It has green trees and a blue lake. Maybe we can store some water in our bottles."
+
+"Good idea, Lily!" Sam said. "Let's go there quickly. Maybe we can also find some fruits and animals."
+
+They ran to the oasis and filled their bottles with water. They drank some and felt better. They saw some pink flowers and some yellow birds. They smelled the flowers and listened to the birds.
+
+"Wow, this is a beautiful place!" Lily said. "Can we stay here for a while?"
+
+"Sure, Lily!" Sam said. "But we have to be careful. Maybe there are some snakes or lions here. We have to stick together and watch out."
+
+They decided to explore the oasis a little bit. They found some bananas and oranges on the trees. They picked some and ate them. They were sweet and juicy. They also saw some fish and turtles in the lake. They wanted to touch them, but they were too fast and shy.
+
+They had a lot of fun at the oasis. They felt happy and refreshed. They thanked the oasis for giving them water and food. They decided to go back to their home before it got dark. They took their bottles and some fruits with them. They said goodbye to the flowers, the birds, the fish and the turtles.
+
+"Bye, oasis!" Lily said. "You are very nice and pretty. We hope to see you again."
+
+"Bye, oasis!" Sam said. "You are very kind and cool. We hope you stay safe and green."
+Lily and Ben were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were spies and look for clues. They saw a big ashtray on the table. It was full of gray stuff and smelled bad.
+
+"Look, Ben, a clue!" Lily said. She picked up the ashtray and shook it. Some of the gray stuff fell on the floor.
+
+"Put it back, Lily, it's dirty!" Ben said. He was afraid of the ashtray. He thought it might hurt them.
+
+"No, it's a clue, Ben, we have to tie it to something!" Lily said. She had a ribbon in her hand. She tried to tie the ribbon around the ashtray.
+
+But the ashtray was too heavy and slippery. It slipped from Lily's hand and crashed on the floor. It broke into many pieces. The noise was very loud.
+
+Lily and Ben were frightened. They heard their mom coming. They knew they were in trouble.
+
+"Uh-oh, what did you do?" their mom said. She saw the mess on the floor. She was angry and sad.
+
+"We're sorry, mom, we were playing spies and we found a clue," Lily said.
+
+"It's not a clue, Lily, it's an ashtray. It was your grandpa's. He gave it to me before he died. It was very special to me," their mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben felt bad. They did not know the ashtray was special. They hugged their mom and said they were sorry.
+
+Their mom hugged them back and said she loved them. She said they should not play with things that are not theirs. She said they should help her clean up the mess.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They learned their lesson. They did not play with the ashtray again.
+Lily was a princess who lived in a big castle with her father, the king. She liked to play with her dolls, read books, and sing songs. But she was very lonely, because she had no friends to play with. Her father was always busy with his work, and the people in the castle were too serious and quiet.
+
+One day, a prince came to visit the castle. His name was Leo, and he was cheerful and friendly. He smiled at Lily and asked her if she wanted to play with him. Lily was shy at first, but she nodded and followed him to the garden. There, they played hide and seek, picked flowers, and chased butterflies. Lily laughed and had fun for the first time in a long time.
+
+"Leo, you are very nice," Lily said. "I like you a lot. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+"Of course, Lily. I like you too. You are very sweet and smart. You are my friend," Leo said. He gave her a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
+
+Lily felt warm and happy. She hugged him back and said, "Thank you, Leo. You make me feel better. You comfort me."
+
+They held hands and walked back to the castle, where they had tea and cake with the king. The king was glad to see his daughter so cheerful and to meet his new friend. He invited Leo to stay for as long as he wanted. Lily and Leo smiled and agreed. They knew they had found a true friend in each other.
+Sara and Tom like to play in the park. They see a big pond with many birds. They see ducks, swans, and geese. Sara and Tom want to feed the birds. They have some bread in their bags.
+
+They go near the pond and throw some bread to the ducks and swans. The ducks and swans are happy and eat the bread. But one goose is not happy. The goose is angry and greedy. The goose wants all the bread for itself. The goose makes a loud noise and flaps its wings.
+
+Sara and Tom are scared of the goose. They try to run away, but the goose is faster. The goose chases them and bites them. Sara and Tom cry and scream. They drop their bags and their bread.
+
+"Help! Help!" Sara and Tom shout. "The goose is hurting us!"
+
+A man hears their shouts and comes to help them. He scares the goose away with a stick. He picks up Sara and Tom and takes them to their mom. Their mom is sitting on a bench and reading a book. She did not see what happened.
+
+"What's wrong, my darlings?" their mom asks. "Why are you crying?"
+
+"A goose bit us!" Sara and Tom say. "It was mean and wanted our bread!"
+
+Their mom looks at their arms and legs. They have red marks and scratches from the goose. Their mom is sorry and hugs them.
+
+"I'm sorry, my darlings," their mom says. "I should have watched you more carefully. Geese can be very nasty sometimes. You should not go near them. They can hurt you."
+
+Sara and Tom are sorry too. They wish they had not gone near the goose. They wish they had listened to their mom. They learned a hard lesson. They will never feed the geese again.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play together. They had a lot of toys, but their favorite was a big box that they pretended was a jail. They took turns being the jailer and the prisoner, and made up stories about why they were in jail.
+
+One day, Ben was the jailer and Lily was the prisoner. Ben said, "You are in jail because you ate all the cookies and did not share with me. You are a bad prisoner and you have to stay in jail for a long time." Lily said, "No, I did not eat all the cookies. You ate some too. You are a mean jailer and you have to let me out."
+
+They argued and shouted, and did not listen to each other. They got very angry and sad, and did not want to play anymore. They sat in the box and cried.
+
+Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw them in the box and asked, "Why are you in jail? What did you do?" Ben and Lily told her their stories, and she said, "You both ate some cookies, and you both did not share. You both made a mistake, and you both need to say sorry. You are not bad or mean, you are brilliant twins who love each other. You can play jail, but you have to be fair and kind."
+
+Ben and Lily hugged and said sorry to each other. They felt better and smiled. They decided to play jail again, but this time they shared the cookies and took turns being the jailer and the prisoner. They had fun and laughed, and their mom was happy to see them.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were spies and had guns to shoot the bad guys. Ben had a big gun that made loud noises. Lily had a small gun that flashed lights.
+
+"Bang, bang, bang!" Ben shouted, pointing his gun at a tree. "I got you, you evil villain!"
+
+Lily giggled and ran behind a bench. She aimed her gun at Ben and pressed the button. "Pew, pew, pew!" she said, making laser sounds. "No, you didn't, I have a shield!"
+
+Ben and Lily ran around the park, shooting and dodging each other. They had a lot of fun. They did not see the man who was watching them from a distance. He had a real gun and a mean face. He wanted to take their guns and sell them. He thought they were attractive and worth a lot of money.
+
+He waited until Ben and Lily were close to him. Then he jumped out and grabbed their guns. "Ha, ha, ha!" he laughed. "These are mine now, you silly kids!"
+
+Ben and Lily were scared and angry. They tried to get their guns back, but the man was too strong and fast. He pushed them away and ran to his car. He threw their guns in the back seat and drove away.
+
+Ben and Lily cried and hugged each other. They missed their guns. They wished they had a real spy to help them. They hoped the man would not hurt anyone with their guns. They wanted their guns back. They were sad.

+
+One day, he goes to university with his backpack and his lunch box. He sees a girl who is crying. She has no backpack and no lunch box. Tom asks her, "Why are you crying?"
+
+The girl says, "I want to go to university, but I have no money. I have no mom and dad to help me. I have no home to live in. I have no friends to play with."
+
+Tom feels sad for the girl. He says, "That is not fair. You should go to university too. You can share my backpack and my lunch box. You can sit with me and learn new things. You can be my friend and play with me."
+
+The girl smiles and says, "Thank you, Tom. You are very kind and generous. You make me happy. What is your name?"
+
+Tom says, "My name is Tom. What is your name?"
+
+The girl says, "My name is Lily. I like your name. I like your backpack and your lunch box. They are very interesting. What do you have inside?"
+
+Tom says, "I have books and pencils and crayons and stickers and a toy car. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily says, "Yes, please. I want to see. I want to learn. I want to play."
+
+Tom and Lily go to the classroom and sit together. They open the backpack and the lunch box. They show each other what they have. They learn new things and play games and draw pictures. They have fun and laugh. They become good friends. They are happy to go to university.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toy cars and trucks in the living room. They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving on the road. Tom had a big truck that could load many things in the back. Lily had a small car that was fast and shiny.
+
+"Look, I can load all these blocks in my truck!" Tom said, as he piled up the colorful blocks. "Can you load anything in your car?"
+
+Lily shook her head. "No, my car is too small. But it can go very fast. Watch!" She pushed her car across the floor and made a zooming sound.
+
+They played happily for a while, until they heard a strange noise from the basement. It sounded like a moan and a clank. They looked at each other with wide eyes.
+
+"What was that?" Lily asked, clutching her car.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it's a ghost!" Tom said, holding his truck.
+
+They were both scared, but curious. They decided to go and see what was making the noise. They tiptoed to the basement door and opened it slowly. They saw a dark staircase leading down to the basement. They held hands and walked down the stairs, trying to be brave.
+
+When they reached the bottom, they saw a big pile of old things. There were boxes, chairs, books, lamps, and clothes. And in the middle of the pile, there was a white sheet with two holes for eyes. It was moving and making noises.
+
+"Boo!" The sheet said, in a low voice.
+
+Tom and Lily screamed and ran back up the stairs. They slammed the door behind them and hugged each other.
+
+"That was a ghost!" Tom said, trembling.
+
+"No, it wasn't!" Lily said, looking at the door. "It was just a sheet. Someone was playing a trick on us."
+
+They heard a knock on the door. They opened it and saw their big brother, Sam, holding the sheet. He was laughing.
+
+"Gotcha!" He said. "Did you like my ghost costume?"
+
+Tom and Lily were angry and relieved. They threw their toys at Sam and chased him around the house. They forgot about their fear and had fun. Sam was sorry for scaring them and said he was just joking. He helped them load their toys back in the living room and played with them. He was a good brother, even if he was a bit naughty.
+Lily liked to visit her grandma's house. Grandma had many books on her bookshelf. Lily liked to look at the pictures and hear the stories. Sometimes, grandma let Lily pick a book and read it to her.
+
+One day, Lily saw a new book on the bookshelf. It was big and shiny and had many colors. Lily wanted to see what was inside. She asked grandma, "Can I have this book, please?"
+
+Grandma smiled and said, "Of course, my dear. That is a special book. It is a modern book. It has many things that you can touch and feel and hear. Do you want me to show you?"
+
+Lily nodded and climbed on grandma's lap. Grandma opened the book and Lily saw a fluffy dog. She touched the dog and it barked. Lily laughed and said, "Woof, woof!"
+
+Grandma turned the page and Lily saw a shiny car. She pressed the car and it honked. Lily said, "Beep, beep!"
+
+Grandma turned another page and Lily saw a picture of herself. She recognized her face and her dress and her hair. She pointed and said, "That's me!"
+
+Grandma hugged her and said, "Yes, that's you. You are the most special thing in this book. You are my precious Lily. I love you very much."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I love you too, grandma. And I love this book. Thank you for giving it to me."
+
+Grandma kissed her and said, "You're welcome, my dear. This book is for you to keep and enjoy. It is a gift from me to you."
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with cars and trucks. They have many cars and trucks with wheels. Wheels are round and can roll.
+
+One day, they find a new car in the park. It is big and red and shiny. It has four wheels, but one wheel is different. It is not round. It is chubby. It is like a ball.
+
+Anna and Ben are curious. They want to play with the new car. They discuss what to do. Discuss means to talk and share ideas.
+
+Anna says, "Maybe the chubby wheel is for bouncing. We can bounce the car like a ball."
+
+Ben says, "No, the chubby wheel is for digging. We can dig the car in the sand like a shovel."
+
+They try both ideas, but they are not fun. The car does not bounce well. The car does not dig well. The chubby wheel makes the car slow and wobbly.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They do not like the new car. They miss their old cars and trucks with round wheels. Round wheels are better for rolling.
+
+They decide to leave the new car in the park. They go back to their old cars and trucks. They have fun rolling them on the ground and on the slide. They are happy. They like their cars and trucks with round wheels. Wheels are round and can roll.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play outside in the grass. They look for bugs and put them in a jar. They find ants, beetles, spiders and worms. They are happy.
+
+One day, they find a big bug. It has six legs, two wings and a long tail. It is green and shiny. They have never seen a bug like this before. They want to keep it in their jar.
+
+But Tim and Sam have a problem. They both want the bug for themselves. They do not want to share. They are stubborn. They pull the bug from each other. They yell and cry.
+
+The bug does not like this. It is scared and angry. It uses its tail to sting Tim and Sam. They let go of the bug. They say "ouch" and "ow". They run to their mom.
+
+The bug flies away. It is free. It is happy. Tim and Sam are sad. They have no bug. They have split the bug. They have learned a lesson. They say "sorry" to each other. They hug and make up. They are happy.
+Tom and Anna were twins who liked to play a lot. They had many toys in their room, but their favorite thing was to jump on their mattress. They pretended it was a trampoline, a boat, or a castle. They laughed and shouted as they bounced up and down.
+
+One day, their mom came into their room and said, "It's time to stop playing and settle down. You need to take a nap, or you will be too tired later." Tom and Anna did not want to nap. They wanted to keep jumping. They said, "No, mom, we are not sleepy. We are strong and happy. Please let us play more."
+
+Mom shook her head and said, "Sorry, kids, but you have to listen to me. Jumping on the mattress is fun, but it can also break it. The mattress is not as strong as you think. It needs to rest, too. If you keep jumping, you might make a hole in it, and then you will have no place to sleep. Do you want that?"
+
+Tom and Anna looked at their mattress and saw that it was sagging in the middle. They felt sorry for their mattress. They did not want to break it or lose it. They said, "No, mom, we don't want that. We love our mattress. We will stop jumping and settle down. We will be quiet and take a nap."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "That's good, kids. I'm proud of you. You are very smart and kind. Now, lie down on your mattress and close your eyes. I will read you a story to help you sleep." She picked up a book and sat on a chair next to their bed. She read them a story about a princess and a dragon. Tom and Anna listened to her voice and felt sleepy. They cuddled with their pillows and blankets and drifted off to dreamland. They were happy and peaceful on their mattress.
+Lily was a dog who loved to run and play. She had an owner who was very kind and gave her food and water and toys. Every day, they would go for a walk in the park and meet other dogs and people. Lily was happy.
+
+One day, her owner said, "Lily, today we are going to do something special. We are going to prepare for a big show. You will wear a pretty dress and a bow and show everyone how smart and good you are." Lily did not like the sound of that. She did not want to wear a dress and a bow. She wanted to run and play.
+
+They went to a big building where there were many other dogs and people. Lily saw some dogs who looked like her, and some who looked very different. Some had long hair, some had short hair, some had spots, some had stripes. They all wore dresses and bows and collars. Lily felt silly and scared.
+
+Her owner took her to a room where there was a table and a brush and a comb and a scissors. He said, "Lily, sit still and let me make you look incredible. You will be the best dog in the show." He started to brush and comb and cut her hair. Lily did not like it. It hurt and pulled and tickled. She tried to wiggle and squirm and bark. She wanted to run away.
+
+Her owner said, "Lily, stop it. You are being a bad dog. You have to behave and listen to me. This is important. I want you to win the show and make me proud." He held her tight and finished his work. He put a dress and a bow on her. He said, "There, you are done. You look incredible. Come on, let's go to the stage."
+
+Lily followed him, but she felt unhappy. She did not feel like herself. She felt like a doll. She did not want to go to the stage. She wanted to go to the park. She wanted to be a dog. She wondered if her owner still loved her.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. But sometimes they fight over their toys. Anna is bossy. She wants to have all the toys. Ben is sad. He wants to share.
+
+One day, Anna finds a brush in the closet. She likes the brush. It is pink and shiny. She wants to brush her hair. She says to Ben, "This is my brush. You can't touch it. It is only for girls."
+
+Ben does not like that. He likes the brush too. He thinks it is pretty. He wants to try it. He says to Anna, "No, it is not your brush. It is our brush. We can both use it. It is for boys and girls."
+
+Anna gets angry. She does not want to share. She says to Ben, "No, it is not. It is mine. Go away. You are silly." She slaps Ben on the arm. Ben feels hurt. He cries.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She comes to the room. She sees Anna and Ben. She sees the brush. She sees Ben's red arm. She is not happy. She says to Anna, "Anna, why did you slap Ben? That is not nice. You have to share the brush. It is not yours. It is ours. You have to say sorry to Ben."
+
+Anna feels sorry. She knows she was wrong. She says to Ben, "I'm sorry, Ben. I was mean. You can use the brush. We can take turns. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+Ben smiles. He says to Anna, "I'm sorry, too. I was mad. You can use the brush. We can be friends. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Anna nods. She says to Ben, "Yes, I do. Let's play together. We can have fun."
+
+Mom smiles. She says to Anna and Ben, "That's good. I'm proud of you. You are good twins. You are kind to each other. Now, let me see your hair. You look beautiful."
+Lila was a queen who liked to make things with paper. She had many colors of paper and a sharp tool to cut them. She made flowers, stars, and animals with her paper. She was very happy.
+
+One day, a king came to visit her. He saw her paper things and wanted to play with them. He picked up a flower and pulled it hard. The flower tore and the king said, "This is not a good toy. It is too delicate."
+
+Lila was sad and angry. She said, "That is not a toy. That is my flower. You are not nice. You broke my flower."
+
+The king was surprised and sorry. He said, "I am sorry, Lila. I did not know. I thought it was a toy. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Lila looked at her broken flower and then at the king. She said, "Yes, I can forgive you. But you have to be careful with my paper things. They are not toys. They are my art."
+
+The king nodded and said, "I understand, Lila. You are very clever and creative. Can you show me how you make your paper things?"
+
+Lila smiled and said, "Yes, I can show you. But you have to be gentle and use the sharp tool only with me."
+
+The king agreed and Lila taught him how to make paper things. They became friends and had fun. Lila was happy again.
+Tim and Mia are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big box in the park. It has a sign that says "Do not open. This is the law."
+
+"What is in the box?" Tim asks.
+
+"I do not know. Maybe something fun. Let us open it and see," Mia says.
+
+"No, we cannot. The sign says no. We have to follow the law. It is good to follow the law," Tim says.
+
+"But I want to see. Maybe it is a surprise. Maybe it is a gift. The sign is weird. Who made the sign? Why do they not want us to open the box?" Mia says.
+
+She tries to pull the box open. Tim stops her.
+
+"Stop, Mia. You are breaking the law. You are being bad. I do not want to play with you if you are bad," Tim says.
+
+Mia gets angry. She pushes Tim away.
+
+"Go away, Tim. You are boring. You are scared. I do not want to play with you if you are boring and scared," Mia says.
+
+She pulls the box harder. The box opens. A loud noise comes out. A lot of smoke comes out. Mia screams. Tim screams. They run away from the box.
+
+They do not know what was in the box. They do not want to know. They are sorry they did not follow the law. They are sorry they fought. They hug each other and say sorry. They go home and tell their moms what happened. Their moms are not happy. They say they have to be careful and listen to the signs. They say they have to be good friends and not fight. They say they love them and hug them. Tim and Mia are happy. They are friends again. They do not want to see the box again. They think the box is weird. They think the law is good.
+Lila and Tom were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big hill with thick snow on top. They wanted to slide down the hill on their sleds.
+
+"Let's go, Tom!" Lila said. "It looks fun!"
+
+"OK, Lila!" Tom said. "But we have to be careful. The hill is very high and steep."
+
+They put on their hats, scarves, gloves and boots. They dragged their sleds to the foot of the hill. They looked up and saw the sun shining in the west. It was almost time to go home.
+
+"Come on, Lila!" Tom said. "We have to hurry. It will be dark soon."
+
+They climbed up the hill, pushing their sleds. They reached the top and saw a beautiful view. They could see the trees, the houses, the lake and the sky.
+
+"Wow, Tom!" Lila said. "It's so pretty!"
+
+"Yes, Lila!" Tom said. "But it's also very cold. I can see your breath."
+
+They shivered in the wind. They decided to slide down the hill quickly and go back to their warm house.
+
+They sat on their sleds and pushed off. They zoomed down the hill, laughing and screaming. They felt the snow spraying their faces and the air rushing past their ears.
+
+They were having so much fun that they did not see the big rock in their way. They crashed into it and flew off their sleds. They landed in a pile of snow.
+
+"Ouch, Tom!" Lila said. "That hurt!"
+
+"Ouch, Lila!" Tom said. "Are you OK?"
+
+They looked at each other and saw that they were covered in snow. They also saw that their sleds were broken.
+
+They felt sad and angry. They had lost their sleds and their fun.
+
+They started to cry. They wished they had been more careful. They wished they had gone home sooner.
+
+They hugged each other and tried to warm up. They hoped that their mom and dad would come and find them. They hoped that they would have new sleds for Christmas.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. One day, they find a red car in their toy box. They both want to play with it.
+
+"It is my car!" Lily says. "I saw it first!"
+
+"No, it is my car!" Ben says. "I like it more!"
+
+They start to pull the car from each other. They make a lot of noise.
+
+Their mom hears them. She is a lawyer. She works at home on her computer. She is busy. She does not like noise.
+
+She comes to their room. She sees them fighting over the car.
+
+"Stop it, Lily and Ben!" she says. "You are making too much noise. You are not sharing. You are not being nice."
+
+She takes the car from them. She puts it on her desk.
+
+"This car is not yours. It is mine. I bought it for myself. It is a special car. It is a lawyer car. It has a lawyer sticker on it. See?"
+
+She shows them the sticker. It has a picture of a scale and a book.
+
+Lily and Ben look at the sticker. They do not understand what it means. They do not care. They just want the car.
+
+"Please, mom, can we play with the car?" they ask. "We will share. We will be nice. We will not make noise."
+
+Mom thinks for a moment. She loves her twins. She wants them to be happy. She also wants them to learn.
+
+"Okay, you can play with the car. But only for a little while. Then you have to return it to me. And you have to say sorry to each other. And you have to play with your other toys too. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They say sorry to each other. They hug. They take the car. They play with it. They share. They are nice. They do not make noise.
+
+Mom smiles. She goes back to her computer. She works. She is happy. She is proud of her twins. She is a good lawyer. She is a good mom.
+Sara and Ben love spaghetti. They like to eat it with cheese and sauce. Sometimes, they make a mess on their faces and clothes. Mom does not like that. She says spaghetti is expensive and they should not waste it.
+
+One day, Mom makes a big pot of spaghetti for lunch. She tells Sara and Ben to wash their hands and sit at the table. She gives them each a plate of spaghetti and a napkin. She says, "Enjoy your lunch, but please be careful. Do not spill or drop your spaghetti. And use your napkins to wipe your mouths."
+
+Sara and Ben nod and start to eat. They are very hungry and the spaghetti is very yummy. They slurp and chew and smile. But they forget to use their napkins. Soon, they have sauce on their cheeks and cheese on their noses. Mom does not see them. She is busy in the kitchen.
+
+Then, Ben has an idea. He thinks it would be fun to rub his spaghetti on Sara's hair. He picks up a long strand of spaghetti and reaches over to Sara. He says, "Hey, Sara, look at this!" He rubs the spaghetti on her head. Sara feels something wet and sticky on her hair. She screams, "Ben, stop it! That's not nice!"
+
+Mom hears the scream and comes to the table. She sees Sara's hair covered in spaghetti and Ben's hand holding more spaghetti. She is very angry. She says, "Ben, what are you doing? That's very naughty! You ruined Sara's hair and wasted the spaghetti! Spaghetti is expensive, you know. You have to pay for it with money. And money is hard to earn. You should be sorry and say sorry to Sara."
+
+Ben feels bad. He did not mean to make Mom angry or Sara sad. He says, "I'm sorry, Mom. I'm sorry, Sara. I was just playing. I won't do it again." He puts down the spaghetti and looks at his plate. He sees that he has not eaten much. He is still hungry.
+
+Mom sighs. She says, "Well, I'm glad you're sorry, but that does not fix the problem. You have to learn to respect your food and your sister. Now, you have to help me clean up the mess. And you have to share your spaghetti with Sara. She does not have enough now. And you have to use your napkin to wipe your face. You look like a clown."
+
+Ben nods. He says, "OK, Mom. I will help you and share with Sara. And I will use my napkin. I don't want to look like a clown." He smiles at Sara and gives her some of his spaghetti. Sara smiles back and says, "Thank you, Ben. I forgive you. But don't rub spaghetti on my hair again. It's not fun. It's gross."
+
+Mom smiles too. She says, "That's better. Now, let's finish our lunch and then wash Sara's hair. And maybe next time, we can have something else for lunch. Something less messy and less expensive. Like soup or sandwiches." Sara and Ben agree. They like soup and sandwiches too. They finish their lunch and then go to the bathroom with Mom. They hope they can wash out all the spaghetti from Sara's hair. They hope Mom will not be mad at them anymore. They hope they can still have spaghetti sometimes. But only if they are careful and use their napkins.
+Ben and Mia liked to play in the park. They saw a big statue of a man on a horse. The statue was amazing. It had a hat, a sword and a long coat.
+
+"Let's play with the statue!" Ben said.
+
+"OK, but how?" Mia asked.
+
+Ben had a plan. He found a stick and said, "I will be the man on the horse. You will be the bad guy. I will use the stick as a sword and chase you."
+
+Mia agreed. She ran away from Ben. Ben climbed on the statue and pretended to ride the horse. He waved the stick and shouted, "I will catch you, bad guy!"
+
+But Ben was not careful. He lost his balance and fell from the statue. He hit his head on the ground and started to cry. Mia ran to him and saw blood on his forehead. She was scared and called for help.
+
+A lady heard them and came to see what happened. She saw Ben and Mia and the stick and the statue. She was angry and said, "What are you doing? You are not supposed to play with the statue. It is not a toy. It is a monument. You could have broken it or hurt yourself. You are very naughty children. I will tell your parents."
+
+Ben and Mia felt sorry and ashamed. They wished they had not played with the statue. They learned their lesson. They never played with the statue again.
+Sara and Ben like to play with dolls. They have many dolls in their room. They dress them, talk to them, and make them do things. Sara's favorite doll is Lily. Lily has long hair, a pink dress, and a shiny necklace. Ben's favorite doll is Tom. Tom has short hair, a blue shirt, and a cool hat.
+
+One day, Sara and Ben go to the toy store with their mom. They see many new toys on the shelves. They see cars, trains, puzzles, and books. They also see a big sign that says "Sale". Mom says they can each choose one toy for a low price.
+
+Sara and Ben run around the store, looking at the toys. Sara sees a doll that looks like Lily, but with a different dress and necklace. She thinks it is very pretty. She picks it up and says, "Mom, can I have this doll? It is like Lily, but different. It is on sale, too. See, the price is low."
+
+Ben sees a doll that looks like Tom, but with a different shirt and hat. He thinks it is very cool. He picks it up and says, "Mom, can I have this doll? It is like Tom, but different. It is on sale, too. See, the price is low."
+
+Mom looks at the dolls and smiles. She says, "They are very nice dolls. But you already have dolls like them at home. Why don't you choose something different? Something you don't have yet. Maybe a car, or a train, or a puzzle, or a book. They are also on sale, and they are very popular. Many kids like them."
+
+Sara and Ben think for a moment. They like their dolls, but they also like other toys. They decide to leave the dolls on the shelf and look for something different. They find a car for Ben and a puzzle for Sara. They are happy with their choices. They thank Mom and go to the cashier. They pay for their toys and leave the store. They can't wait to play with their new toys at home. They also can't wait to play with their old dolls, Lily and Tom. They love all their toys.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to collect stamps. They had a big book where they put their stamps with glue. They got stamps from their grandma, their friends and sometimes from the mail.
+
+One day, they saw a new shop that sold stamps. They ran inside and looked at all the stamps. There were stamps with animals, flowers, cars and more. They wanted to buy some stamps, but they only had a little money.
+
+"Look, Tom, these stamps are cheap!" Lily said, pointing at a basket. "They are only one coin each. We can buy many stamps with our money."
+
+Tom looked at the basket and frowned. He picked up a stamp and saw that it was torn and dirty. He picked up another stamp and saw that it was faded and wrinkled. He picked up another stamp and saw that it had no glue on the back.
+
+"These stamps are not cheap, Lily. They are bad. They are old and broken. They will not stick in our book. They will make our book ugly. We do not want these stamps." Tom said, putting the stamps back.
+
+Lily looked at the stamps and saw that Tom was right. She felt sad and angry. She wanted to have new and nice stamps for their book.
+
+"Hey, you two, do you want to buy some stamps or not?" A voice said behind them. They turned and saw a man who worked at the shop. He looked mean and bored.
+
+"No, we do not want to buy your stamps. Your stamps are bad. They are old and broken. They are not worth one coin. You are trying to trick us." Lily said, holding Tom's hand.
+
+The man scowled and shouted. "How dare you complain about my stamps? They are the best stamps in town. You are rude and ungrateful. Get out of my shop and do not come back!"
+
+Lily and Tom ran out of the shop, scared and upset. They decided to never go back to that shop again. They went home and hugged their grandma. She gave them some cookies and some new stamps that she had bought for them. They smiled and thanked her. They put the new stamps in their book and admired them. They were happy and proud of their book. They did not need any cheap stamps.
+Anna and her mom went to the shop to buy clothes. Anna saw a dress that was pink and had flowers on it. She liked it very much. She said to her mom, "Mom, can I have this dress? It is so beautiful!"
+
+Her mom looked at the dress and smiled. She said, "Yes, you can have this dress. It is very beautiful and it will look good on you. But first, we have to try it on and see if it fits you."
+
+They went to the fitting room and Anna put on the dress. She looked at herself in the mirror and twirled around. She felt happy and pretty. She said, "Mom, I love this dress! It is perfect for me!"
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "I love it too, Anna. You are my beautiful girl. Let's go and pay for the dress and then we can go home and show it to dad."
+
+They went to the cashier and paid for the dress. Anna thanked her mom and said, "Thank you, mom, for buying me this dress. You are the best mom ever!"
+
+Her mom kissed her and said, "You are very welcome, Anna. You are the best daughter ever!"
+
+They left the shop and walked home, holding hands. Anna was happy and excited to wear her new dress. She could not wait to show it to her dad and tell him how beautiful it was. She thought it was the best day ever.
+Lily and Ben were having a picnic with their mom and dad. They had cheese, bread, fruit and olives. Lily liked olives a lot. She took one from the jar and put it on her finger.
+
+"Look, mom, I have a ring!" she said.
+
+"That's a very pretty ring, Lily," mom said. "Do you know how many olives you have?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not know how to count.
+
+"Let me show you," mom said. "One, two, three, four, five. You have five olives in the jar. Can you say that with me?"
+
+Lily tried to repeat after mom. "One, two, three, four, five."
+
+"Very good, Lily! You are learning to count!" mom said.
+
+Ben wanted to learn too. He took an olive and put it on his finger.
+
+"Me too, me too!" he said.
+
+Mom smiled and helped him count. "One, two, three, four, five, six. You have six olives in the jar. Can you say that with me?"
+
+Ben nodded and said. "One, two, three, four, five, six."
+
+"Great job, Ben! You are learning to count too!" mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben were happy. They liked to count and they liked to eat olives. They took turns putting olives on their fingers and counting them. The olives were soft and salty and yummy. They had a fun picnic with their mom and dad.
+Lily and Ben love to ride horses at the ranch. They have a big brown horse named Coco and a small white horse named Snowy. They like to brush their horses, feed them carrots and apples, and take them for walks.
+
+One day, they decide to ride their horses to the pond. They put on their helmets and boots and saddle their horses. They say goodbye to their mom and dad and start to ride.
+
+"Look, Lily, there are ducks in the pond!" Ben says. "Can we feed them some bread?"
+
+"Sure, Ben, that sounds fun!" Lily says. "But we have to be careful. There is a nosy goose that lives there. He likes to chase people and bite them."
+
+They ride to the pond and tie their horses to a tree. They take some bread from their backpacks and throw it to the ducks. The ducks quack and swim to get the bread. Lily and Ben laugh and clap.
+
+But then they hear a loud honk. It is the nosy goose. He sees the bread and wants some too. He flaps his wings and runs towards Lily and Ben.
+
+"Uh-oh, Lily, it's the nosy goose!" Ben says. "He looks angry!"
+
+"Run, Ben, run!" Lily says. "Back to the horses!"
+
+They drop the bread and run to their horses. The nosy goose follows them and tries to bite their legs. They untie their horses and jump on them. They ride away from the pond as fast as they can.
+
+"Bye-bye, nosy goose!" Lily says. "You can have the rest of the bread!"
+
+They ride back to the ranch and tell their mom and dad what happened. Their mom and dad hug them and say they are brave. They give them some cookies and milk and say they are proud of them. Lily and Ben smile and hug their horses. They love to ride horses at the ranch.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they went to the big field near their house. The field had many flowers and trees and birds. Tom and Lily ran and laughed and picked some flowers.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a yellow flower for you!" Tom said, giving her the flower.
+
+"Thank you, Tom, it is very pretty. I found a red flower for you!" Lily said, giving him the flower.
+
+They put the flowers in their hair and pretended to be king and queen of the field. They made a crown of grass and a throne of sticks. They waved to the birds and the bugs and the clouds.
+
+They played until the sun went down and their mom called them for dinner. They ran back to their house, holding hands. They ate their soup and bread and drank their milk. They said good night to their mom and dad and went to their beds.
+
+They dreamed of the field and the flowers and the birds. They dreamed of being king and queen of the field. They dreamed of having more fun the next day. They smiled in their sleep. They were happy. They were fair.
+Lily hated juice. She hated how it tasted sour and sticky. She hated how it made her teeth hurt. She hated how her mom always told her to drink it.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big bottle of juice on the table. She wanted to show her mom that she was strong and brave. She decided to drink all the juice by herself. She grabbed the bottle and lifted it to her mouth.
+
+"Stop, Lily!" her mom shouted. "That's not juice, that's vinegar!"
+
+Lily did not listen. She took a big gulp of the vinegar. She felt a sharp pain in her throat and her eyes. She spit out the vinegar and started to cry.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, it hurts!" she sobbed.
+
+Her mom ran to her and hugged her. She gave her some water and a cookie. She told her that vinegar was not for drinking, but for cooking. She told her that she was sorry and that she loved her.
+
+Lily felt better. She learned her lesson. She still hated juice, but she hated vinegar more. She told her mom that she loved her too. She asked her if she could have some milk instead. Her mom smiled and said yes.
+Lily liked to rock on her chair. She rocked back and forth, back and forth, with a big smile on her face. She felt happy and calm when she rocked.
+
+One day, she saw a new boy in her class. His name was Sam. He had a symbol on his shirt. It was a star. Lily liked stars. She wanted to talk to Sam.
+
+She got off her chair and walked to Sam. She said, "Hi, I'm Lily. I like your shirt. It has a star. Stars are pretty."
+
+Sam looked at Lily and smiled. He said, "Hi, I'm Sam. Thank you. I like stars too. They are bright and shiny. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, I want to be your friend. Do you like to rock?"
+
+Sam nodded. He said, "Yes, I like to rock. It makes me feel good. Do you want to rock with me?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, I want to rock with you. Let's go to my chair. It's big enough for two."
+
+They went to Lily's chair and rocked together. They laughed and sang. They had fun. They became friends. They were popular. Everyone liked them. They liked everyone. They liked to rock.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they go to the park with Mom and Dad. They see a big slide and a swing. They want to try them.
+
+Lily goes first. She climbs up the steps and sits on the slide. She holds on tight and slides down. She laughs and says, "That was fun!" Tom claps and says, "Good job, Lily!"
+
+Tom goes next. He runs to the swing and pushes it with his feet. He swings higher and higher. He feels the wind in his hair and says, "Whee!" Lily cheers and says, "You are brave, Tom!"
+
+Mom and Dad watch them and smile. They are proud of Lily and Tom. They say, "You are doing great, Lily and Tom! We love you!" Lily and Tom smile back and say, "We love you too, Mom and Dad!"
+
+They play some more and then go home. They are happy and tired. They hug Mom and Dad and say, "Thank you for taking us to the park!" Mom and Dad hug them back and say, "You are welcome, Lily and Tom! You are our sweet kids!" They go to bed and dream of the park.
+Lily and Ben are best friends. They like to play in the park every day. They have a lot of fun on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. But their favorite thing is to look for bugs. They are eager to find new and different bugs every time.
+
+One day, they see a big, shiny bug on a leaf. It has six legs, two wings and a long tail. It is green and blue and red. Lily and Ben are amazed. They have never seen such a bug before.
+
+"Wow, look at that bug!" Lily says. "It is so pretty and colorful. What is it?"
+
+"I don't know," Ben says. "Maybe it is a dragonfly. Or a beetle. Or a fairy."
+
+They get closer to the bug, but they are careful not to touch it. They want to see it better, but they don't want to scare it away.
+
+"Hello, bug," Lily says softly. "We are Lily and Ben. We are your friends. Can we play with you?"
+
+The bug does not answer. It just moves its tail a little. Lily and Ben think it is saying hello back.
+
+"Can we ask you a question, bug?" Ben says. "What is your name? And where do you come from?"
+
+The bug does not answer again. It just flaps its wings a little. Lily and Ben think it is saying yes.
+
+"OK, bug, tell us the truth," Lily says. "Are you a dragonfly? Or a beetle? Or a fairy?"
+
+The bug does not answer. It just flies away. Lily and Ben are sad. They wanted to know more about the bug. They wanted to play with it more.
+
+"Bye, bug," Lily says. "We hope to see you again."
+
+"Bye, bug," Ben says. "We hope you are happy."
+
+They watch the bug disappear in the sky. They wonder where it is going. They wonder what it is. They smile at each other. They are still best friends. They are still eager to look for bugs.
+Lily was a girl who liked to help. She helped her mom cook, she helped her dad fix things, she helped her brother read. She was very useful.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her family. She saw a boy who was crying. He had a crown on his head and a cape on his back. He looked like a prince.
+
+"Why are you crying?" Lily asked.
+
+"I lost my ball," the boy said. "It went over the fence and I can't get it back."
+
+Lily looked at the fence. It was very high and had sharp wires on top. She had an idea.
+
+"I can help you," she said. "I have a rope in my backpack. We can use it to get your ball."
+
+She took out the rope and tied one end to a tree. She gave the other end to the boy.
+
+"Hold this," she said. "I will climb over the fence and get your ball."
+
+She was very brave and careful. She climbed over the fence and found the ball. She threw it back to the boy and climbed back.
+
+"Thank you, thank you!" the boy said. "You are very useful and kind. What is your name?"
+
+"I'm Lily," she said.
+
+"I'm Leo," he said. "I'm a prince. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+"Yes, I do," she said.
+
+They smiled and played with the ball. They had met and became friends.
+Sara and Ben loved to play in the sand near the ocean. They made castles and bridges and tunnels with their buckets and shovels. They liked to watch the waves splash and the birds fly. They felt peaceful and happy.
+
+One day, they saw a big boat on the water. It was shiny and white and had a red flag. Sara and Ben wondered what was inside the boat. They wanted to go closer and see. They asked their mom if they could walk along the shore.
+
+Mom said yes, but told them to be careful and not go too far. She gave them a snack and a bottle of water and a towel to dry off. She said she would watch them from the beach chair. Sara and Ben thanked her and started to walk.
+
+They walked and walked and saw many things. They saw shells and crabs and seaweed. They saw a starfish and a jellyfish and a dolphin. They were amazed and excited. They forgot about the boat.
+
+They walked and walked until they reached a big rock. They climbed on top of it and looked around. They saw the boat again. It was very close to them now. They could see people and boxes and ropes on the boat. They heard a loud noise. It was a horn.
+
+Sara and Ben felt scared. They realized they had walked too far. They looked back and saw that the ocean had gone away. The sand was dry and hard. They could not see their mom or the beach chair. They were stuck on the rock.
+
+They started to cry. They wished they had listened to their mom. They wished they had stayed near the ocean. They wished they had felt peaceful and happy.
+Tim and Lily were playing with a ball in the park. They liked to kick the ball to each other and see how far it would go. Sometimes they would miss the ball and fall down, but they would laugh and get up again.
+
+"Kick it to me, Tim!" Lily shouted. She was ready to catch the ball with her hands.
+
+Tim kicked the ball hard, but it went too high. It flew over Lily's head and landed near a bench where a parent was sitting. The parent was reading a book and did not see the ball.
+
+"Oops!" Tim said. He ran to get the ball, but the parent was faster. The parent picked up the ball and looked at Tim with a frown.
+
+"Is this your ball?" the parent asked. The parent sounded angry and impatient.
+
+"Yes, it is. I'm sorry, we did not mean to hit you," Tim said. He hoped the parent would give him the ball back.
+
+The parent shook the head and said, "You should be more careful. This is not a place to play with a ball. You could hurt someone or damage something. I'm going to keep this ball until you learn to behave."
+
+The parent put the ball in a bag and went back to the book. Tim felt sad and scared. He did not know what to do.
+
+Lily came to Tim and saw what happened. She felt sorry for Tim and angry at the parent.
+
+"That's not fair!" she said. "That's our ball. We were just having fun. The parent is mean and selfish."
+
+She had an idea. She whispered to Tim, "Let's wait until the parent is not looking. Then we can take our ball back and run away."
+
+Tim nodded. He liked Lily's idea. He did not want to lose his ball. He waited with Lily until the parent was busy with the book. Then they sneaked to the bench and grabbed the ball from the bag. They ran as fast as they could to the other side of the park.
+
+They were happy to have their ball back. They decided to play somewhere else, where no one would bother them. They kicked the ball to each other and had fun. They did not care about the parent anymore.
+Ben and Lily liked to play in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. One day, they saw a big statue of a man on a horse. The statue was shiny and tall.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Ben said. "He looks like a king!"
+
+"Can we touch it?" Lily asked.
+
+Ben nodded. He ran to the statue and climbed on the horse. Lily followed him. They felt the metal and the mane. They pretended to ride the horse.
+
+But then, a loud voice shouted at them. "Hey, you two! Get off that statue! You are not allowed to do that!"
+
+Ben and Lily looked down. They saw a man in a uniform. He was angry. He had a badge and a hat. He was a park guard.
+
+"Sorry, sir!" Ben said. He jumped off the horse. Lily did the same. They ran away from the statue.
+
+They felt ashamed. They knew they did something bad. They did not want to get in trouble.
+
+They ran to a corner of the park. They saw a pile of dirt and a shovel. Someone was digging a hole.
+
+"Maybe we can hide here," Ben said.
+
+"OK," Lily said.
+
+They took the shovel and dug a hole. They buried themselves in the dirt. They hoped the park guard would not find them.
+
+But then, they heard another voice. It was their mom.
+
+"Ben! Lily! Where are you?" she called. "It's time to go home!"
+
+Ben and Lily poked their heads out of the hole. They saw their mom looking for them. She saw them too.
+
+"Ben! Lily! What are you doing?" she asked. "Why are you covered in dirt?"
+
+Ben and Lily felt more ashamed. They did not know what to say.
+
+They got out of the hole. They walked to their mom. They hugged her.
+
+"We're sorry, mom," Ben said.
+
+"We're sorry, mom," Lily said.
+
+They told her what happened. They said they were sorry for touching the statue and burying themselves.
+
+Their mom was not happy. She said they should not do that again. She said they should respect the statue and the park. She said they should listen to the park guard.
+
+But she also said she loved them. She said she was glad they were safe. She said they could go home and take a bath.
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They said they loved her too. They said they would be good.
+
+They held their mom's hand. They walked to the car. They left the park. They learned their lesson.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play knights and dragons. Tom has a sword and Sam has a shield. They run around the yard and pretend to fight.
+
+One day, they see a big dog in the yard. The dog is not friendly. It barks and growls at them. Tom and Sam are scared. They try to run away, but the dog is faster.
+
+"Help me, Tom!" Sam says. He holds his shield in front of him. The dog jumps and bites the shield. Sam drops the shield and cries.
+
+Tom runs to Sam and tries to help him. He swings his sword at the dog. But the sword is too small and the dog is too big. The dog snaps at the sword and breaks it. Then the dog bites Tom's arm. Tom screams and falls down.

+The dog runs away with the shield and the sword. Tom and Sam are hurt and sad. They have no more toys to play with. They wish they had a real knight to save them.
+One day, a little boy named Ben was playing with his toy cars in the garden. He liked to make them zoom and crash and honk. He saw a big red car on the road and wanted to have one like that. He ran inside and asked his mom if he could have a big red car.
+
+Mom said no, big red cars were not for little boys. They were too fast and loud and smelly. Ben was sad and angry. He wanted a big red car more than anything. He thought of a plan. He took his toy cars and some matches from the kitchen. He went back to the garden and piled up his toy cars. He lit a match and threw it on the pile.
+
+The toy cars caught fire and became flames. Ben was happy. He had a big red car now. He laughed and clapped his hands. He did not see the smoke and the smell. He did not hear his mom scream and run out of the house. He did not feel the heat and the pain. He only saw the big red car. He became a flame too.
+Lily had a white diary with a lock and a key. She liked to write and draw in it every day. She wrote about her friends, her toys, her dreams and her feelings. She did not want anyone to read her diary, because it was her secret.
+
+One day, she left her diary on her bed and went to play outside. Her brother, Tom, saw the diary and was curious. He wanted to know what Lily wrote. He looked for the key, but he could not find it. He tried to open the lock with different things, but nothing worked. He was frustrated.
+
+He heard Lily coming back and quickly hid the diary under his pillow. Lily came into the room and looked for her diary. She saw a bump under Tom's pillow and lifted it. She saw her diary and was angry.
+
+"Tom, did you try to open my diary?" she asked.
+
+"No, I did not," Tom lied.
+
+"Yes, you did. Look, you scratched the lock. And this is not your pillow. This is my pillow. It has flowers on it. Your pillow has cars on it. They do not match," Lily said.
+
+She grabbed her diary and her pillow and ran to her mom. She told her what Tom did and asked her to punish him. Tom felt sorry and followed her. He said he was sorry and asked her to forgive him. He said he would not touch her diary again. Lily was still mad, but she decided to give him a chance. She said he could read her diary if he asked her nicely and promised not to tell anyone. Tom agreed and hugged her. They both smiled and went to read the diary together.
+Lily and Max liked to play knights and dragons. They had a big box with hats and capes and swords. One day, they found a bright sword in the box. It was shiny and had a star on the handle.
+
+"Wow, look at this sword!" Max said. "It must be magic!"
+
+"Can I see it?" Lily asked.
+
+"Okay, but be careful. It might have powers," Max said. He gave the sword to Lily.
+
+Lily held the sword and felt happy. She waved it in the air and made a whoosh sound. She pretended to fight a dragon. "Take that, you mean dragon!" she said.
+
+Max laughed. He liked to see Lily have fun. He put on a hat and a cape and joined her. "I'll help you, brave knight!" he said.
+
+They played for a long time, until they heard Mom call them for lunch. They ran to the kitchen, leaving the sword on the floor.
+
+Mom saw the sword and smiled. She knew it was a toy, but she also knew it was special. She had given it to Max for his birthday. She had put a star on the handle to remind him of his dad, who was a soldier. She hoped he would always be brave and kind, like his dad.
+
+She picked up the sword and put it back in the box. She thought of a surprise for the kids. She had a book with stories of knights and dragons. She decided to read it to them after lunch. She knew they would love it.
+Sara likes to play in the garden. She likes to look at the plants and smell the flowers. She likes to dig in the dirt and find bugs. She likes to water the plants with her little can.
+
+One day, Sara sees a new plant in the garden. It is big and green and has shiny red berries. Sara thinks the berries look yummy. She wants to try one. She picks a berry and puts it in her mouth.
+
+But the berry is not yummy. It is very bad. It makes Sara's mouth burn and itch. It makes Sara feel sick and dizzy. Sara spits out the berry and cries. She runs to the house and calls for her mom.
+
+Mom hears Sara and comes to help. She sees the berry in Sara's hand and the plant in the garden. She knows the plant is poison. She is very scared. She takes Sara to the car and drives to the doctor.
+
+The doctor gives Sara some medicine and checks her. He says Sara will be okay, but she has to stay in the hospital for a while. He says the plant is very dangerous and can hurt people and animals. He says Sara should never eat anything from the garden without asking mom first.
+
+Sara feels very sorry and sad. She shivers in the hospital bed and wishes she was home. She misses her mom and her garden. She learns a hard lesson. She will never eat a bad plant again.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a tall monkey in a tree. The monkey is funny. He makes faces and jumps from branch to branch.
+
+Lily and Tom want to say hello to the monkey. They wave and shout. The monkey waves and shouts back. He is happy to see them. He throws a banana to them. Lily and Tom catch the banana and say thank you.

+Tom and Lily wanted to make a cake for their mom. They saw a big jar of jam on the shelf. They liked jam very much. They wanted to put some jam on the cake.
+
+But the jar was too high for them. They tried to reach it, but they could not. They got a chair and climbed on it, but they still could not. They got another chair and stacked it on the first one, but they still could not.
+
+They were sad and frustrated. They did not know what to do. They almost gave up.
+
+Then they saw their dad coming home. He had a big smile on his face. He saw them and asked, "What are you doing, kids?"
+
+"We want to make a cake for mom, but we can't get the jam," Tom said.
+
+"Can you help us, dad?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, I can help you," dad said. He lifted them up and let them grab the jar. They were very happy and thanked him.
+
+They opened the jar and saw the jam. It was red and shiny and smelled sweet. They took a spoon and tasted it. It was delicious.
+
+They said, "This is the best jam ever! It is very modern!"
+
+They put some jam on the cake and decorated it with sprinkles and candles. They waited for mom to come home. They wanted to surprise her and make her happy.
+
+They succeeded. Mom was very happy and proud of them. She hugged them and kissed them and said, "You are the best kids ever! I love you so much!"
+
+They ate the cake together and enjoyed it. They had a wonderful day.
+Anna and Ben were playing with their toys in the garden. They had a big bucket of water and some cups and spoons. They liked to pour water from one cup to another and make splashes.
+
+"Look, I can pour water into a circle!" Anna said, holding a cup upside down over a plate. She moved the cup around and made a wet circle on the plate.
+
+"Wow, that's cool!" Ben said. "Can I try?"
+
+"Sure, here you go!" Anna said, giving him the cup and the plate. She took another cup and spoon and started to pour water into the spoon.
+
+Ben tried to copy Anna, but he poured too much water and the circle broke. He tried again, but the same thing happened. He got frustrated and threw the cup and the plate on the ground.
+
+"Hey, don't do that!" Anna said. "You're wasting water and making a mess!"
+
+"I don't care!" Ben said. "This is a stupid game! Circles are not useful!"
+
+Anna was sad and angry. She wanted to play with Ben, but he was being mean and rude. She thought of a way to teach him a lesson.
+
+She poured some water into her spoon and walked over to Ben. She pretended to be friendly and said, "Hey, Ben, do you want to see something useful?"
+
+"What?" Ben said, curious.
+
+Anna smiled and said, "This!" She flicked the spoon and splashed water on Ben's face.
+
+Ben gasped and blinked. He felt the water dripping from his nose and chin. He looked at Anna and saw her laughing.
+
+"That's not funny!" Ben said. "That's mean!"
+
+Anna stopped laughing and said, "Now you know how I feel. You were mean to me and the water. You should be sorry."
+
+Ben realized he was wrong. He felt ashamed and sorry. He said, "You're right, Anna. I'm sorry. I was mean to you and the water. I shouldn't have thrown the cup and the plate. I shouldn't have said circles are not useful. They are cool and fun. Can we play again?"
+
+Anna smiled and said, "Yes, we can play again. But only if you promise to be nice and careful."
+
+Ben nodded and said, "I promise. I'm sorry, Anna. You're a good friend."
+
+Anna hugged him and said, "You're a good friend, too. Come on, let's play with the water and the circles."
+
+They picked up the cup and the plate and went back to their game. They poured water into circles and had fun. They learned to be respectful and kind to each other and to nature. They were happy.

+
+The man is bad. He says, "No, these toys are not for you. They are for other children. Go away!" He pushes Tom and Mia. Tom falls and hurts his knee. Mia cries.
+
+Tom and Mia are sad and angry. They want to get the toys. They have an idea. They wait until the man is busy. Then they sneak to the back of the truck. They open the door and grab some toys. They run away with the toys.
+
+The man sees them. He shouts, "Hey, stop! You are stealing my toys!" He chases them. Tom and Mia are scared. They run faster. They see a police car. They wave to the police. They tell them, "Help! The bad man is after us! He hurt us and he has no toys for us!"
+
+The police stop the man. They ask him, "What are you doing? Why are you chasing these children? Why did you hurt them?" The man lies. He says, "They are lying. They are the bad ones. They stole my toys. They are not for them. They are for other children."
+
+The police do not believe him. They see Tom's knee. They see Mia's tears. They see the toys in their hands. They say, "You are the bad one. You are not nice to the children. You have no right to push them and take their toys. You are in trouble. We will take you to the station."
+
+Tom and Mia are happy. The police are nice to them. They say, "You can keep the toys. They are for you. You are brave and smart. We are sorry that the bad man hurt you. Do you want a rub for your knee?" Tom says, "Yes, please." Mia says, "Thank you." They hug the police. They go home with their toys. They play with their toys. They are friends. The end.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to examine the flowers, the bugs and the rocks. They found many different colors and shapes.
+
+"Look, Anna, I found a shiny rock!" Ben said, holding a smooth pebble.
+
+"Wow, it is shiny! Can I see?" Anna asked, reaching for the pebble.
+
+"Sure, here you go." Ben gave the pebble to Anna. She felt it with her fingers and put it in her pocket.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. It is a nice rock." Anna said, smiling.
+
+They continued to play and explore. They saw a butterfly, a worm and a snail. They heard a bird, a dog and a car. They smelled a rose, a mint and a lemon.
+
+They were having fun, but they were also getting thirsty. They decided to go back to the house and get some water.
+
+They walked to the kitchen and saw a big puddle on the floor. There was water dripping from the sink.
+
+"Oh no, there is a leak!" Anna said, pointing to the sink.
+
+"What is a leak?" Ben asked, confused.
+
+"A leak is when water comes out of something that it should not come out of." Anna explained.
+
+"Like when I pee in my pants?" Ben asked, giggling.
+
+"No, not like that. That is an accident. A leak is a problem. We need to tell Mommy." Anna said, serious.
+
+They ran to the living room and found Mommy reading a book.
+
+"Mommy, Mommy, there is a leak in the kitchen!" Anna said, worried.
+
+"A leak? What do you mean?" Mommy asked, surprised.
+
+"Come and see, Mommy. There is water everywhere!" Ben said, pulling Mommy's hand.
+
+Mommy followed them to the kitchen and saw the mess. She frowned and turned off the faucet.
+
+"Thank you, Anna and Ben, for telling me. There is a leak in the pipe. I need to call Daddy and ask him to fix it." Mommy said, taking her phone.
+
+"Can we help, Mommy?" Anna asked, eager.
+
+"No, sweetie, this is a job for Daddy. But you can help me clean up the water. Here, take this towel and wipe the floor." Mommy said, handing them a towel.
+
+"OK, Mommy. We will help." Ben said, nodding.
+
+They helped Mommy clean up the water. They worked hard and fast. They made the floor dry and shiny.
+
+"Good job, Anna and Ben. You are very helpful." Mommy said, smiling.
+
+"Thank you, Mommy. We are sorry for the leak." Anna said, hugging Mommy.
+
+"It is not your fault, honey. It is an old pipe. Daddy will fix it soon. Don't worry." Mommy said, kissing Anna.
+
+"Can we have some water now, Mommy? We are thirsty." Ben said, rubbing his tummy.
+
+"Of course, my darlings. Let's go to the fridge and get some water. And maybe some yummy cookies too." Mommy said, leading them to the fridge.
+
+"Yay, yummy cookies!" Anna and Ben said, clapping.
+
+They went to the fridge and got some water and cookies. They drank and ate and felt happy. They liked water and cookies. They liked Mommy and Daddy. They liked the garden and the rocks. They liked each other. They were a happy family.
+Tom and Mia are playing with blocks in the living room. They are building a big tower with many colors. They are having fun and laughing.
+
+Mom is in the kitchen. She is making soup for lunch. She smells something burning. She runs to the stove and sees the pot is too hot. She turns off the fire and takes the pot off. She says, "Oh no, the soup is burned!"
+
+Tom and Mia hear Mom and go to the kitchen. They see the smoke and the black pot. They say, "What happened, Mom?"
+
+Mom says, "I was making soup, but I forgot to watch it. It burned and made a lot of smoke. I'm sorry, kids. We have to eat something else for lunch."
+
+Tom and Mia say, "It's okay, Mom. We can have sandwiches or fruit. But Mom, are you okay? Did you burn yourself?"
+
+Mom says, "No, I'm fine. I was careful and used a mitt to hold the pot. But the smoke made my nose hurt. It stings and smells bad."
+
+Tom and Mia say, "We're sorry, Mom. We hope your nose feels better soon. Can we help you clean the pot?"
+
+Mom says, "Thank you, kids. You are very sweet and helpful. But the pot is very dirty and hard to clean. You can help me by putting away your blocks and setting the table for lunch. And be careful, don't touch the stove or the pot. They are still very hot and can burn you."
+
+Tom and Mia say, "Okay, Mom. We will be careful and do what you say. We love you, Mom."
+
+Mom says, "I love you too, kids. You are the best."
+Anna and Ben are playing in the kitchen. They want to make a cake for Mom. They find a big bowl and a box of cake mix. They open the box and pour the mix into the bowl.
+
+"Can I stir?" Ben asks.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Anna says. She gives him a big spoon. Ben stirs the mix with the spoon. He likes how it looks and smells.
+
+They look for eggs and milk. They find them in the fridge. They pour some milk into the bowl. They crack two eggs and pour them too. They stir some more.
+
+"Can I taste?" Ben asks.
+
+"OK, but only a little," Anna says. She gives him a small spoon. Ben scoops some mix and puts it in his mouth. He makes a face.
+
+"Yuck! It's not sweet!" he says.
+
+"It will be sweet when we bake it," Anna says. "We need to add sugar."
+
+They look for sugar. They find a jar on the counter. They open the jar and pour some sugar into the bowl. They stir some more.
+
+"Can I taste again?" Ben asks.
+
+"OK, but only a little," Anna says. She gives him the same spoon. Ben scoops some mix and puts it in his mouth. He smiles.
+
+"Mmm! It's sweet now!" he says.
+
+"Good! Now we need to bake it," Anna says. "We need to ask Mom for help."
+
+They take the bowl to Mom. Mom is happy to see them. She helps them put the mix in a pan and put the pan in the oven. She sets the timer.
+
+"Thank you for making a cake for me," Mom says. "You are very sweet too."
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They liked to make noises like vroom and beep and honk. They also liked to pull their cars along the carpet and pretend they were going fast.
+
+But then they saw a big box in the corner. It was wrapped with shiny paper and had a bow on top. It looked like a present. Lily and Tom wondered what was inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Lily said.
+
+"No, we can't. It's not ours. It's for Mommy's birthday." Tom said.
+
+"But I want to see. Maybe it's a toy for us." Lily said.
+
+She went to the box and tried to pull the paper off. But it was too tight and sticky. She pulled harder and harder. Tom watched her and felt scared. He knew they were doing something bad.
+
+Suddenly, the paper ripped and the box opened. Out came a loud noise. It was a cuckoo clock. It had a bird that popped out and said cuckoo. Lily and Tom jumped and screamed. They had never heard such a noise before.
+
+Mommy and Daddy came running from the kitchen. They saw the broken paper, the open box, and the noisy clock. They also saw Lily and Tom, who looked very sorry and scared.
+
+"What have you done?" Mommy asked.
+
+"We're sorry, Mommy. We wanted to see what was in the box. We didn't know it was a clock. It made a noise and we got scared." Lily said.
+
+Mommy and Daddy looked at each other. They were angry, but they also felt sorry for their children. They knew they were curious and didn't mean to ruin the surprise.
+
+"It's okay, sweeties. We forgive you. But you shouldn't open things that don't belong to you. It's not nice. And you could have broken the clock. It was a gift from Grandma. She wanted to give it to me for my birthday." Mommy said.
+
+"We're sorry, Mommy. We love you. And we love Grandma. Can we say sorry to her too?" Tom said.
+
+"Of course, you can. She'll be here soon. She'll be happy to see you. And maybe she'll let you play with the clock. But only if you're careful and gentle. And only if you ask first." Daddy said.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They hugged Mommy and Daddy and said sorry again. They learned their lesson. They didn't want to pull things that didn't fit. They wanted to be good and happy. And they wanted to hear the cuckoo clock again. But only when it was time.
+Sara was a little girl who liked to go to school. She liked to play with her friends, to draw with crayons, and to sing songs. But there was one boy in her class who was very rude. His name was Ben, and he liked to bite other kids.
+
+One day, Sara was sitting at her desk, doing her work. She had a nice pencil with a pink eraser. Ben saw her pencil and wanted it. He walked over to her and said, "Give me your pencil. It is mine now."
+
+Sara did not want to give her pencil to Ben. She said, "No, this is my pencil. You have your own pencil. Go away, Ben."
+
+Ben did not like what Sara said. He got angry and grabbed her pencil. Sara tried to hold on to it, but Ben was stronger. He pulled the pencil away from her and said, "Ha ha, I have your pencil now. You are a baby, Sara."
+
+Sara felt sad and mad. She wanted her pencil back. She said, "Give me back my pencil, Ben. You are rude and mean."
+
+Ben did not listen to Sara. He laughed and said, "No, I will not give you back your pencil. I will bite it and break it."
+
+He opened his mouth and bit the pencil hard. But the pencil was not soft like food. It was hard and sharp. It hurt Ben's teeth and made him bleed. He dropped the pencil and cried, "Ow, ow, ow, my mouth, my mouth."
+
+Sara saw Ben's blood and felt scared. She did not want him to bite her. She ran away from him and looked for her teacher. She found her teacher and said, "Teacher, teacher, help me. Ben bit my pencil and hurt himself. He is rude and he bites."
+
+The teacher heard Sara and saw Ben. She was shocked and angry. She said, "Ben, what did you do? You bit Sara's pencil and made a mess. You are in big trouble, young man. You have to go to the office and say sorry to Sara and the principal. You are not allowed to bite anyone or anything at school. That is very bad."
+
+She took Ben by the hand and led him away. Ben was still crying and bleeding. He felt sorry for himself, but not for Sara. He did not learn his lesson. He was still rude and liked to bite.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the old house. It was big and dusty and had many things to see. One day, they found a box in the attic. It had a lock and a key.
+
+"Let's open it!" said Tom.
+
+"Maybe it has a treasure!" said Lily.
+
+They used the key and opened the box. Inside, they saw a book. It was very old and had many pages. On the cover, it said "Count the stars".
+
+"What does it mean?" asked Tom.
+
+"I don't know. Let's look inside!" said Lily.
+
+They opened the book and saw many pictures. They were of the sky and the stars. Some had numbers and some had words.
+
+"Look, this is a message!" said Lily. She pointed to a page that had a picture of a star and a word. It said "Wish".
+
+"Maybe if we count the stars and make a wish, it will come true!" said Tom.
+
+"Let's try!" said Lily.
+
+They started to count the stars in the book. They counted one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. Then they closed their eyes and made a wish.
+
+They wished for a new toy. They opened their eyes and looked around. They saw nothing.
+
+"It didn't work!" said Tom.
+
+"Maybe we need to count more stars!" said Lily.
+
+They opened the book again and counted more stars. They counted eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty. Then they closed their eyes and made a wish.
+
+They wished for a new friend. They opened their eyes and looked around. They saw nothing.
+
+"It still didn't work!" said Tom.
+
+"Maybe we need to count all the stars!" said Lily.
+
+They opened the book again and tried to count all the stars. But there were too many. They could not count them all. They got tired and sleepy.
+
+They fell asleep on the floor, holding the book.
+
+They did not see the light that came from the book. They did not hear the sound that came from the book. They did not feel the magic that came from the book.
+
+The book was ancient and had a secret. It did not need numbers or words. It only needed dreams.
+
+The book sent their wishes to the stars. And the stars answered.
+Lily and Tom were hungry. They wanted a snack. Mom said they could have some celery and dip. She put the celery and dip on a plate and left it on the table.
+
+Lily and Tom ran to the table. They saw the white dip and the green celery. They liked dip and celery. They wanted to eat them.
+
+But the plate was too high. Lily and Tom could not reach it. They tried to jump. They tried to climb. They tried to push a chair. But they could not reach the plate.
+
+They started to cry. They were hungry and sad. They wanted the dip and celery.
+
+Mom heard them cry. She came to the table. She saw the plate was too high. She saw Lily and Tom were trying to reach it.
+
+She said, "Why are you crying? You can have the dip and celery. But you have to ask me for help. I can lift you up. Or I can bring the plate down. You don't have to do it by yourself. You can ask for help."
+
+Lily and Tom stopped crying. They said, "Sorry, Mom. We wanted the dip and celery. But we could not reach it. Can you help us, please?"
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "Of course, I can help you. Here, let me bring the plate down. Now you can have the dip and celery. But remember, next time, if you need help, just ask. Asking for help is not bad. It is good. It shows you are smart and kind."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They said, "Thank you, Mom. We will ask for help next time. We love you."
+
+They ate the dip and celery. They were happy and full. They learned a lesson. They learned to ask for help.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the garden. They find a big pot. The pot is ugly. It is brown and has holes.
+
+"Look, Ben, a pot!" Anna says.
+
+"What can we do with it?" Ben asks.
+
+"Let's celebrate!" Anna says. "We can make a cake with mud and flowers. Then we can sing and dance."
+
+Anna and Ben fill the pot with mud. They pick some flowers and put them on top. They make a candle with a stick and a leaf. They put the pot on a rock.

+
+They have fun. They do not care that the pot is ugly. They think it is beautiful. They are happy.
+Lily likes to watch the big bin truck when it comes to her street. She waits by the window and listens for the loud noise. She sees the big bin truck stop and the man jump out. He picks up the bins and puts them on the back of the truck. Then the truck makes a funny sound and the bins go up and down.
+
+One day, Lily sees something different. She sees a small cat run out of a bin and jump on the truck. The cat is black and white and has a red collar. Lily thinks the cat is cute and wants to pet it. But the man does not see the cat. He picks up the bin and puts it on the back of the truck. The cat is scared and tries to get off.
+
+Lily is worried about the cat. She runs to the door and shouts, "Stop! Stop! There is a cat on the truck!" But the man does not hear her. He gets in the truck and drives away. Lily feels sad and cries. She hopes the cat will be okay.
+
+Her mom hears her cry and comes to see what is wrong. She hugs Lily and asks her what happened. Lily tells her about the cat and the bin truck. Her mom looks serious and says, "Oh no, that is not good. We have to find the cat and help it. Come on, let's go."
+
+They get in the car and follow the bin truck. They see it stop at another street and the man get out. They see the cat still on the truck, hiding behind a bin. Lily and her mom get out of the car and run to the truck. They call the cat and try to catch it. The cat is scared and runs away. They chase the cat and the man sees them. He asks them what they are doing.
+
+Lily and her mom tell him about the cat and the bin. He looks surprised and says, "Oh, I didn't know there was a cat on my truck. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare it. Let me help you." He helps them catch the cat and gives it to Lily. Lily hugs the cat and says, "Thank you, thank you. You are a nice man. And you are a brave cat. I'm sorry you had a bad ride. Do you have a name?"
+
+The cat purrs and looks at Lily. She sees a tag on its collar. It says, "Milo". She says, "Hello, Milo. I'm Lily. Do you want to be my friend?" Milo nods and licks her face. Lily smiles and says, "I'm glad we found you. You are a very special cat. Come on, let's go home." She and her mom get in the car and drive away. They wave to the man and the bin truck. The man waves back and says, "Bye, Lily. Bye, Milo. Have a good day." Lily and Milo watch the bin truck until it is out of sight. Then they cuddle and nap. They are happy. The end.
+Lily loved her kitten, Max. Max was unusual. He had one blue eye and one green eye. He also had a big spot on his nose. Lily liked to play with Max and teach him new things.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to improve Max's jumping. She put a toy mouse on the sofa and said, "Max, look! A mouse! Can you jump and catch it?" Max looked at the toy mouse and meowed. He tried to jump, but he was too small. He landed on the floor with a thud.
+
+Lily hugged Max and said, "It's okay, Max. You are still a baby. You will grow and jump higher soon. I love you, Max." Max purred and licked Lily's face. He loved Lily, too.
+
+The next day, Lily tried again. She put the toy mouse on a chair and said, "Max, look! A mouse! Can you jump and catch it?" Max looked at the toy mouse and meowed. He tried to jump, but he was still too small. He landed on the floor with a thud.
+
+Lily hugged Max and said, "It's okay, Max. You are doing better. You jumped a little higher today. I love you, Max." Max purred and licked Lily's face. He loved Lily, too.
+
+The third day, Lily tried one more time. She put the toy mouse on a stool and said, "Max, look! A mouse! Can you jump and catch it?" Max looked at the toy mouse and meowed. He tried to jump, and this time, he did it! He caught the toy mouse in his paws and brought it to Lily.
+
+Lily clapped and said, "Yay, Max! You did it! You jumped and caught the mouse! You improved a lot, Max. I'm so proud of you. I love you, Max." Max purred and licked Lily's face. He loved Lily, too. They played with the toy mouse and had fun. Lily and Max were happy.
+Anna and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park every morning. The park had swings, slides, and a big pond with ducks.
+
+One bright morning, Anna and Ben went to the park with their moms. They ran to the swings and took turns pushing each other. They laughed and shouted with joy.
+
+"Look, Ben, look!" Anna said, pointing to the pond. "There are baby ducks!"
+
+Ben looked and saw four fuzzy yellow ducks following their mom. He smiled and said, "They are so cute! Let's go see them!"
+
+Anna and Ben ran to the pond, holding hands. Their moms followed them, but they were slower. Anna and Ben reached the edge of the pond and bent down to look at the ducks.
+
+"Hello, ducks!" Anna said, waving her hand. "Do you want some bread?"
+
+Ben reached into his pocket and took out a piece of bread. He broke it into small pieces and threw them into the water. The ducks swam closer and ate the bread. Anna and Ben clapped and giggled.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud splash. They looked up and saw a big fish jumping out of the water. The fish opened its mouth and ate one of the baby ducks. Then it vanished under the water.
+
+Anna and Ben gasped and stared at the pond. They couldn't believe what they saw. They felt sad and scared.
+
+"Mommy!" Anna cried, running to her mom. "Mommy, a fish ate a duck!"
+
+"Mommy!" Ben echoed, running to his mom. "Mommy, a fish ate a duck!"
+
+Their moms hugged them and tried to comfort them. They explained that sometimes fish eat ducks, and that's how nature works. They said that the other ducks were safe and that they should be happy for them.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded, but they still felt sad. They didn't want to play in the park anymore. They wanted to go home and cuddle with their toys.
+
+They said goodbye to the ducks and walked away from the pond. They hoped that the fish wouldn't eat any more ducks. They hoped that the ducks would have a good morning.
+Sara and Ben wanted to decorate the big tree in the yard. They had many shiny things to hang on the branches. They had red balls, yellow stars, green ribbons and silver bells. They also had a big zero made of paper. They did not know what it was for, but they liked how it looked.
+
+They took a ladder and climbed up the tree. They started to hang the shiny things on the branches. They had fun and talked to each other.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a good spot for the red ball!" Sara said.
+
+"Good, Sara, and I found a good spot for the yellow star!" Ben said.
+
+They went on like this until they had no more shiny things left. Then they looked at the big zero. They wondered where to put it.
+
+"Maybe we can put it on the top of the tree, like a crown!" Sara suggested.
+
+"Or maybe we can put it on the bottom of the tree, like a ring!" Ben suggested.
+
+They could not agree on where to put the big zero. They started to argue and shout.
+
+"No, Sara, the top is better!"
+
+"No, Ben, the bottom is better!"
+
+They got angry and sad. They did not want to decorate the tree anymore. They climbed down the ladder and sat on the grass.
+
+They looked at the tree. It was not pretty anymore. It was messy and noisy. They felt sorry for the tree and for each other.
+
+They decided to say sorry and make up. They hugged and smiled.
+
+"Ben, I'm sorry I yelled at you. You can choose where to put the big zero," Sara said.
+
+"Sara, I'm sorry I yelled at you. You can choose where to put the big zero," Ben said.
+
+They looked at each other and laughed. They had a better idea.
+
+"Why don't we put the big zero in the middle of the tree, like a hug?" they said together.
+
+They climbed up the ladder again and hung the big zero in the middle of the tree. It looked perfect. It looked like the tree was giving them a big hug.
+
+They climbed down the ladder and admired the tree. It was beautiful and peaceful. They felt happy and proud.
+
+They went inside the house and told their mom and dad what they did. Their mom and dad were very proud of them too. They gave them a big hug and a big zero.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play with numbers. They have cards with numbers on them. One day, they find a new card. It has a circle on it. It is blue.
+
+"What is this?" Lila asks.
+
+"It is zero," Ben says. "Zero is a number, too. It means nothing."
+
+"Nothing?" Lila says. "How can nothing be a number?"
+
+Ben shrugs. "I don't know. But it is. Look, I can show you." He takes two cards. One has a one on it. The other has the blue zero.
+
+He puts them together. "This is ten," he says. "One and zero make ten."
+
+Lila nods. She understands. She takes two cards. One has a two on it. The other has the blue zero.
+
+She puts them together. "This is twenty," she says. "Two and zero make twenty."
+
+They smile. They like the blue zero. It makes bigger numbers.
+
+They hear a knock on the door. It is their friend Mia. She wants to play with them.
+
+"Hi, Mia," Lila says. "We have a new card. It is zero. It is blue. Do you want to see?"
+
+Mia nods. She is curious. She comes in.
+
+Lila and Ben show her the blue zero. They tell her what it means. They show her how to make bigger numbers with it.
+
+Mia likes the blue zero, too. She thinks it is fun.
+
+"Thank you for showing me," she says. "You are good friends."
+
+Lila and Ben smile. They are happy.

+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big hill. They want to roll down the hill.
+
+"Let's roll down the hill!" Tom says. "It looks fun!"
+
+"OK!" Mia says. "But we have to be careful. The hill is high."
+
+They take off their shirts and put them on the grass. They run to the top of the hill. They lie down on their backs. They hold hands. They start to roll.
+
+They roll and roll and roll. They feel the wind on their faces. They laugh and scream. They roll faster and faster. They have fun.
+
+They reach the bottom of the hill. They are dizzy and happy. They sit up and look at each other. They are covered in dirt and grass.
+
+"That was awesome!" Tom says.
+
+"Yeah!" Mia says. "Let's do it again!"
+
+They get up and run to the top of the hill. They put on their shirts. They roll down the hill again. They play until the sun goes down. They are friends. They like to roll.
+Tim was eager to go to the park with his mom and dad. He loved to play on the swings, the slide and the sandbox. He also liked to see the ducks and the squirrels that lived near the pond. He packed his lunch in a small bag. He had a sandwich, a banana and a juice box. He was very hungry and wanted to eat soon.
+
+"Are we there yet?" he asked his mom, who was driving the car.
+
+"Soon, honey, soon," she said. "We just have to cross this bridge and then we'll be there."
+
+Tim looked out the window and saw the big bridge over the river. He saw the cars and the trucks and the buses going fast. He saw the water sparkling in the sun. He saw the birds flying in the sky. He thought it was very pretty.
+
+He also saw a sign that said "No Dropping". He wondered what that meant. He asked his dad, who was sitting next to him.
+
+"It means you can't throw anything out of the car, Tim," his dad explained. "It's bad for the environment and it's dangerous for the other drivers. You have to keep everything inside the car until we get to the park."
+
+Tim nodded. He understood. He didn't want to be bad or dangerous. He wanted to be good and safe. He held his lunch bag tightly in his lap. He didn't want to drop it.
+
+But then, something happened. A big truck honked its horn very loudly behind them. It made Tim jump and scream. He was scared. He let go of his lunch bag. It flew out of the window. It landed on the road. It was gone.
+
+Tim cried. He was sad. He was hungry. He had no lunch.
+
+His mom and dad tried to comfort him. They said they were sorry. They said they would buy him a new lunch at the park. They said they loved him.
+
+But Tim was still sad. He wished he had not dropped his lunch. He wished he had listened to the sign. He wished he had kept everything inside the car. He learned a lesson that day. He learned to be careful and not drop things. He learned to follow the rules and not throw things. He learned to be happy with what he had and not wish for what he lost.
+Raven was a big black bird who liked to eat a lot. He always looked for food in the fields and the woods. He did not like to share his food with other birds. He was very competitive.
+
+One day, he saw a big red apple on a tree. He flew to the apple and tried to eat it. But the apple was too hard for his beak. He could not bite it. He was angry.
+
+He saw a squirrel on the ground. The squirrel had a nut in his mouth. Raven wanted the nut. He flew down and said to the squirrel, "Give me your nut. I am hungry. You have many nuts. I have nothing."
+
+The squirrel was scared of Raven. He said, "No, this is my nut. I worked hard to find it. You have a big apple. Go and eat your apple."
+
+Raven did not listen. He tried to take the nut from the squirrel. The squirrel ran away. Raven chased him. They ran and ran. They did not see a fox behind a bush.
+
+The fox saw Raven and the squirrel. He was hungry too. He thought, "What a good lunch. A bird and a nut. I will eat them both." He jumped out of the bush and caught Raven and the squirrel in his mouth.
+
+Raven and the squirrel were sorry. They wished they had shared their food. They wished they had not been so competitive. But it was too late. The fox ate them. He was happy. He said, "Thank you for the lunch. It was delicious."
+Tim and Lily were playing in the attic. They found a big box full of old things. They opened the box and saw a lot of dust. They sneezed and coughed.
+
+"Look, Lily, a scale!" Tim said. He pointed to a metal thing with a needle and numbers. "Let's see how much we weigh!"
+
+They took turns to stand on the scale. Tim weighed 40 and Lily weighed 35. They did not know what the numbers meant, but they thought it was fun.
+
+"Can you weigh this?" Lily asked. She picked up a big book from the box. It had a picture of a castle on the cover.
+
+"Sure!" Tim said. He put the book on the scale. The needle moved to 10. "Wow, this book is heavy!"
+
+"Can you weigh this?" Tim asked. He picked up a feather from the box. It was white and soft. He put the feather on the scale. The needle did not move at all. "Huh, this feather is light!"
+
+They laughed and tried to weigh other things. They weighed a hat, a ball, a doll, and a lamp. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. It was their mom. She was coming up the stairs.
+
+"Tim! Lily! What are you doing up there?" she shouted. "You are making a mess!"
+
+Tim and Lily looked around. They saw dust everywhere. They felt dizzy.
+
+"Uh-oh," they said. They quickly got off the scale and ran to the door. They hoped their mom would not be too mad.

+
+"Can we press the button?" Mia asks Ben.
+
+"Let's try it!" Ben says.

+Lila was sleeping in her bed when she heard a loud noise. She opened her eyes and saw a parrot on her window. The parrot was filthy, with dirt and feathers all over him. He looked hungry and scared.
+
+"Hello, little girl," the parrot said. "Can you help me? I flew away from my home and got lost. I need some food and water and a place to rest."
+
+Lila was surprised and curious. She liked animals, but she had never seen a parrot before. She got out of her bed and went to the window.
+
+"Hello, parrot," she said. "I'm Lila. You can come in, but you have to be quiet. My mommy and daddy are still sleeping."
+
+The parrot nodded and flew into Lila's room. He landed on her desk and looked around. He saw some crackers and a glass of water that Lila had left from last night. He ate some crackers and drank some water. He felt better.
+
+"Thank you, Lila," he said. "You are very kind. What is this place?"
+
+"This is my room," Lila said. "I have toys and books and a teddy bear. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+The parrot smiled and nodded. He liked Lila. She was friendly and fun. He played with her toys and books and teddy bear. He also learned some new words from her. He said them back to her and made her laugh.
+
+They had a good time until they heard a knock on the door. It was Lila's mommy. She came in and saw the parrot.
+
+"Lila, what is this?" she asked. "Where did you get this parrot?"
+
+Lila told her mommy the story of the parrot. She asked her if they could keep him. Her mommy looked at the parrot. He was filthy, but he also looked cute and smart. He said hello to her and tilted his head.
+
+Her mommy smiled and said, "Well, I guess we can keep him, but only if you promise to take good care of him. He needs a cage, a name, and a bath."
+
+Lila was happy and hugged her mommy. She thanked her and said, "I promise, mommy. I will take good care of him. I will name him Polly. He is my new friend."

+
+"OK, you can have some of my blue blocks, but you have to give me some of your red blocks, too," Sam says. He wants to make a blue and red car.
+
+They trade some of their blocks and start to build their things. They are happy and have fun.
+
+But then, their baby brother Leo comes into the room. He sees the blocks and wants to play with them, too. He crawls over to Sam and Mia and grabs some of their blocks. He puts them in his mouth and tries to chew them.
+
+"Hey, Leo, no!" Sam shouts. He takes the blocks away from Leo. "These are not for eating. They are for playing. You can hurt your teeth and mouth."
+
+"Leo, you have to be careful," Mia says. She gives Leo a soft toy to play with. "This is for you. It is smooth and safe. You can hug it and squeeze it and bite it. It will not hurt you."
+
+Leo likes the soft toy. He smiles and makes a noise. He hugs it and squeezes it and bites it. He is happy and has fun.
+
+Sam and Mia are happy, too. They go back to their blocks and finish their house and car. They are proud of their things. They show them to Leo and he claps his hands. They all play together and have a good time.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom. One day, they see a big pond with many ducks. The ducks are busy. They swim, quack, and eat bread.
+
+"Look, mom, ducks!" Anna says. She points to the pond.
+
+"Yes, they are ducks. They are very pretty, aren't they?" Mom says. She smiles.
+
+"Can we feed them, mom?" Ben asks. He holds a bag of bread.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. Don't go too close to the water. And don't throw the bread too hard. The ducks might get scared." Mom says. She gives them some bread.
+
+Anna and Ben walk to the edge of the pond. They break the bread into small pieces. They toss them to the ducks. The ducks come closer. They open their beaks and catch the bread. They make happy noises.
+
+Anna and Ben laugh. They like the ducks. They feed them more bread.
+
+One duck is different. It does not swim or quack or eat bread. It lies on the grass. It does not move. It looks sad.
+
+"Mom, what is wrong with that duck?" Anna asks. She points to the duck.
+
+Mom looks at the duck. She frowns. She walks to the duck. She bends down and touches it gently.
+
+"I think this duck is sick, Anna. It needs help." Mom says. She picks up the duck. It is soft and warm.
+
+"Can we help it, mom?" Ben asks. He follows mom.
+
+"Yes, we can. We can take it to the vet. The vet is a person who helps animals. The vet can make the duck feel better." Mom says. She holds the duck in her arms.
+
+"Okay, mom. Let's go to the vet." Anna says. She takes mom's hand.
+
+"Bye, ducks. We hope you have a good day." Ben says. He waves to the other ducks.
+
+The other ducks wave back. They quack and swim and eat bread. They are busy. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends who like to play with toys. One day, they have many toys on the floor and they do not know where to put them. Lily says, "We should organize our toys. We can put them in boxes or baskets by color or shape. Then we can find them easily and have more space to play."
+
+Ben says, "I do not want to organize. I want to play more. Organizing is boring and hard. You do it, Lily. I will play with this car." He zooms the car around the floor and makes loud noises.
+
+Lily feels sad and angry. She says, "Ben, that is not fair. We should share the work and the fun. If we do not organize, we will lose our toys or break them. And we will make a mess for our moms and dads. They will be unhappy with us."
+
+Ben does not listen. He keeps playing with the car. He does not see the big book on the floor. He trips over the book and falls down. He hurts his ear and cries. Lily runs to him and says, "Are you okay, Ben? Let me see your ear. It is red and swollen. You should put some ice on it."
+
+Ben feels sorry and says, "I am sorry, Lily. You were right. I was selfish and careless. I should have helped you organize. Can you forgive me? Can we still be friends?"
+
+Lily smiles and says, "Of course, Ben. I forgive you. We are still friends. But next time, please listen to me and be more careful. We want to be healthy and happy, right?"
+
+Ben nods and says, "Right. Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. Let's organize our toys together. Then we can play more safely and nicely."
+
+Lily and Ben hug and start to organize their toys. They learn that organizing is not only good for their toys, but also for their friendship. They have more fun and less trouble. They are proud of themselves and their moms and dads are proud of them too.
+Lila and Ben were fish who lived in a reef. They liked to swim and play with their friends. They were cute fish with bright colors and shiny scales.
+
+One day, they saw a big boat on the water. They were curious and wanted to see it. They swam closer and closer to the boat. They did not see the net that was hanging from the boat.
+
+The net caught Lila and Ben and many other fish. They tried to wiggle and escape, but the net was too strong. They were scared and sad. They wanted to go back to their reef and their friends.
+
+The boat pulled up the net and took the fish away. Lila and Ben never saw their reef or their friends again. They were put in a small tank with no plants or rocks. They were not happy. They wished they had not gone near the boat.
+Tim and Lily were playing a game of questions and answers. They took turns asking each other things like "What is your favorite color?" or "What do you like to eat?" They had to answer quickly and honestly, or they would lose a point. The one who had the most points at the end would win the game and get a victory.
+
+Tim asked Lily, "What is the name of the big animal that has a long trunk and big ears?" Lily knew the answer. It was an elephant. She liked elephants. They were big and strong and funny. She opened her mouth to say the answer, but then she heard a mysterious sound. It was a loud roar, like a lion or a tiger. She looked around, scared. Where did the sound come from?
+
+Tim heard the sound too. He was also scared. He wondered if there was a wild animal nearby. He grabbed Lily's hand and said, "Let's go inside. Maybe there is a monster outside. We can finish the game later." Lily nodded and ran with him to the house. They slammed the door behind them and looked for their mom.
+
+Mom was in the kitchen, making cookies. She smiled when she saw them. "What's wrong, kids? You look frightened. Did something happen?" she asked. Tim and Lily told her about the game and the mysterious sound. They asked her if she knew what it was.
+
+Mom laughed and said, "Oh, that was just the neighbor's dog. He likes to bark and pretend he is a lion. He is not a monster. He is a friendly dog. Do you want to meet him?" Tim and Lily looked at each other. They felt silly. They had been scared of a dog. They nodded and said, "Yes, please. We want to meet him. And we want to finish the game too. Maybe he can play with us." Mom smiled and said, "Okay, let's go. But first, have a cookie. You deserve it for being brave." Tim and Lily smiled and took a cookie. They felt happy. They had a new friend and a sweet treat. And they still had a chance to win the game and get a victory.

+
+"Mia, Ben, I know you both love your teddy bears. But you know what? You can also love each other. You are twins. You are family. You can share and play nicely. Why don't you give each other a hug?" Mom says.
+
+Mia and Ben look at each other. They feel sorry. They put their teddy bears down. They give each other a hug.
+

+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play in the garden. They saw many flowers that were big and pretty. Lily liked the pink ones and Tom liked the yellow ones. They picked some flowers and put them in a vase with water. They wanted to make the flowers happy.
+
+"Look, Tom, the flowers are blooming!" Lily said. "They are opening their petals and showing their colors. They are so beautiful!"
+
+"Yes, they are, Lily," Tom said. "But I am thirsty. Do you have any juice?"
+
+Lily nodded. She went inside the house and brought back a bottle of juice and two cups. She poured some juice for Tom and some for herself. They drank the juice and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. This juice is sweet and yummy," Tom said.
+
+"You're welcome, Tom. I like this juice too," Lily said.
+
+They put the cups on the ground and went back to the flowers. They touched the petals and smelled the fragrance. They were happy.
+
+But they did not see the bee that was flying near the vase. The bee was looking for nectar and saw the flowers. The bee was hungry and angry. The bee did not like that the children had picked the flowers. The bee wanted to sting them.
+
+The bee flew towards Lily and Tom. It buzzed very loud. It was noisy. Lily and Tom heard the noise and turned around. They saw the bee and got scared.
+
+"Help, Lily, help! There is a bee!" Tom shouted.
+
+"Run, Tom, run! The bee will hurt us!" Lily shouted.
+
+They tried to run away, but it was too late. The bee stung them both. Lily and Tom cried. They felt pain and itch. They dropped the flowers and ran inside the house. They looked for their mom and dad. They wanted them to make the pain go away.
+
+But their mom and dad were not home. They had gone to the store. They had left a note on the table. It said: "We will be back soon. Don't go outside. There are bees in the garden. They can sting you. Be careful. We love you."
+
+Lily and Tom saw the note and felt sad. They had not listened to their mom and dad. They had gone outside and played with the flowers. They had made the bee angry. They had been stung. They had no one to help them. They hugged each other and sobbed. They wished they had never picked the flowers. They wished they had never seen the bee. They wished they had never drank the juice. They wished they had never played in the garden. They wished they had stayed inside the house. They wished they had been good.
+Tim and Lily liked to play by the river. They wanted to build a raft and sail on the water. They found some sticks and tied them together with vines. They also found a big leaf to use as a sail.
+
+"Look, our raft is ready!" Tim said. "Let's go and test it."
+
+They put their raft on the river and climbed on it. They used a stick to push the raft along. The wind blew the leaf and made the raft go faster.
+
+"This is fun!" Lily said. "We are gifted builders!"
+
+They sailed past some ducks and frogs. They waved at them and said hello. The ducks and frogs quacked and croaked back.
+
+Suddenly, they saw a big rock in the water. It was too late to steer away. The raft hit the rock and broke into pieces. Tim and Lily fell into the water.
+
+"Help!" they shouted. "We can't swim!"
+
+Luckily, their dad was nearby. He heard their cries and ran to the river. He jumped in and grabbed them. He carried them to the shore and wrapped them in a towel.
+
+"Are you okay?" he asked. "That was a dangerous game."
+
+"We're sorry, dad," Tim and Lily said. "We just wanted to have fun."
+
+"I know, but you have to be careful," dad said. "The river can be tricky. Next time, ask me before you build a raft."
+
+Tim and Lily nodded. They hugged their dad and thanked him for saving them. They learned their lesson and never played by the river again.
+Lila liked to ride her bike. She had a red bike with a bell and a basket. She always wore her helmet when she rode. Her helmet was different from other helmets. It had stars and moons and a big pink bow.
+
+One day, Lila went to the park with her mom. She saw a lot of kids playing on the swings and slides. She wanted to join them, but she was shy. She rode her bike around the grass, but she felt lonely.
+
+Then, she saw a boy with a blue bike. He had a helmet too, but his helmet was different from hers. It had rockets and planets and a big yellow star. He rode his bike near her and smiled. He said, "Hi, I'm Max. I like your helmet. It's cool."
+
+Lila smiled back. She said, "Hi, I'm Lila. I like your helmet too. It's fun."
+
+They started to talk and ride their bikes together. They found out they had a lot in common. They both liked space and animals and ice cream. They became friends.
+
+They rode their bikes to the pond and saw some ducks. They fed them some bread and watched them swim. They laughed and had fun. They waved to their moms, who were sitting on a bench. Their moms waved back and smiled. They were happy to see their kids make a new friend.
+
+Lila and Max decided to trade helmets for a while. They put on each other's helmets and giggled. They looked different, but they felt the same. They felt happy.
+Sara and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and make mud pies. They saw a big pile of ash near the fence. It was from the fire that burned the old shed last week.
+
+"Let's use the ash for our pies," Sara said. "It will make them look yummy."
+
+Tom nodded. He took a bucket and filled it with water. He poured some water on the ash. It made a wet and gray paste.
+
+"Look, I can soak the ash with water," Tom said. "It is fun and messy."
+
+Sara smiled. She took a spoon and scooped some ash paste. She put it on a plate. She made a round and flat pie.
+
+"Here is my ash pie," Sara said. "Do you want some?"
+
+Tom shook his head. He made his own pie. He added some leaves and sticks for decoration.
+
+"No, thank you," Tom said. "I like my pie better."
+
+They were happy and busy with their pies. They did not see the cat that came near them. The cat was curious and hungry. It smelled the ash and the water. It thought it was food.
+
+The cat jumped on the plate and licked the ash paste. It did not like it. It spat and coughed. It ran away.
+
+Sara and Tom heard the noise. They looked at the plate. They saw the cat's paw prints and tongue marks.
+
+"Hey, that was our pie!" Sara said. "The cat ate it!"
+
+Tom laughed. He pointed at the cat. It was hiding behind a bush. It had ash on its fur and face.
+
+"Look at the cat," Tom said. "It is old and gray. It looks like the shed."
+
+Sara laughed too. She agreed. They did not mind the cat. They made more pies. They had fun with the ash and the water.
+Ben and Mia were playing in their room. They had a big sheet that they used to make a tent. They put some pillows and toys inside the tent and pretended they were camping.
+
+"Look, I have a flashlight!" Ben said, shining it on the sheet. "We can tell stories in the dark."
+
+"Okay, you go first," Mia said, crawling into the tent. "But make it a funny story, not a scary one."
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He wanted to make Mia laugh. He remembered a story that their dad told them once. It was about a bear who had a cold and sneezed so hard that he blew away his honey.
+
+"Once upon a time, there was a bear who loved honey," Ben began. "He had a big jar of honey that he kept in his cave. But one day, he woke up with a cold. He felt very sick and his nose was runny. He decided to eat some honey to make himself feel better."
+
+He reached for the jar of honey and opened it. He smelled the sweet honey and licked his lips. He dipped his paw into the jar and scooped up some honey. He brought it to his mouth and was about to eat it when he felt a tickle in his nose.
+
+"Achoo!" he sneezed, very loudly and very hard. The honey flew out of his paw and splashed on the wall. The jar of honey slipped from his other paw and rolled out of the cave. The bear was very sad and very hungry.
+
+Mia listened to Ben's story and giggled. She thought it was very funny. She imagined the bear sneezing and losing his honey. She wanted to say something, but then she felt a tickle in her nose too.
+
+"Achoo!" she sneezed, very loudly and very hard. The sheet that they used to make the tent flew off the bed and landed on the floor. The pillows and toys fell out of the tent and scattered around the room. Ben and Mia were very surprised and very messy.
+
+They looked at each other and burst out laughing. They thought it was very funny. They picked up the sheet and the pillows and the toys and made the tent again. They decided to tell more stories, but this time they covered their noses.
+Lily was a dog. She was big and strong. She liked to run and play with her ball. She had a collar with her name on it. Her collar was red and shiny.
+
+One day, Lily saw a cat. The cat was small and fast. Lily wanted to catch the cat. She ran after the cat. She did not see the car.
+
+The car was big and loud. It was going very fast. It did not stop for Lily. It hit Lily with a big bump. Lily felt a lot of pain. She could not move.
+
+The cat ran away. It was safe. Lily was not safe. She was hurt. She was bleeding. She was scared. She cried for help.
+
+But no one heard Lily. No one came to help her. She was alone. She was sad. She closed her eyes. She did not wake up.
+Mia and Max are friends. They like to play in the park. Mia has a dog. His name is Spot. Spot is big and white and has black spots. Max likes Spot, but he is a little scared of him.
+
+One day, Mia and Max are playing with a ball. Mia throws the ball and Spot runs after it. He catches the ball in his mouth and brings it back to Mia. Mia says, "Good boy, Spot! You are so fast and smart!"
+
+Max wants to try too. He says, "Can I throw the ball for Spot?" Mia says, "Sure, Max. Spot likes you. He will bring the ball back to you." Max takes the ball and throws it. But he is clumsy and throws it too far. The ball goes over the fence and into the street.
+
+Spot sees the ball and runs after it. He does not see the cars. Mia and Max see the cars. They are scared for Spot. They shout, "Spot, stop! Spot, come back!"
+
+Spot hears them and stops. He looks at the ball and then at Mia and Max. He wants the ball, but he trusts Mia and Max. He knows they are his friends and they want him to be safe. He turns around and runs back to them. He jumps over the fence and lands on his paws. He wags his tail and licks their faces.
+
+Mia and Max hug Spot. They are happy and relieved. They say, "Spot, you are a good boy! You are brave and loyal! We love you, Spot!" Spot barks and wags his tail. He loves them too. He does not need the ball. He has his friends.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play together. But sometimes they also fought over toys and books. One day, they both wanted to read the same story about a brave knight and a dragon. They pulled and tugged at the book until it ripped in half.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily cried. "Now we can't read the story!"
+
+"It's your fault!" Ben shouted. "You should have let me have it!"
+
+They were both very grumpy and sad. They did not want to talk to each other or share anything.
+
+Their mom saw what happened and came to talk to them. She was not happy with them.
+
+"Look what you did to the book!" she said. "That was not nice. You should have taken turns or read it together. Now you have ruined the book and your fun."
+
+She picked up the two halves of the book and showed them the last page. It had a picture of the knight and the dragon smiling and hugging.
+
+"Do you know how the story ends?" she asked. "The knight and the dragon become friends. They learn to tell each other their feelings and listen to each other. They help each other and have fun. That is the success of the story. Do you want to be like them or like this?" She pointed at the torn book.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at the picture and then at each other. They felt sorry for what they did. They did not want to be grumpy and mean. They wanted to be friends and have fun.
+
+They hugged each other and said, "We're sorry. We love you. Can we read the story together?"
+
+Their mom smiled and said, "Of course you can. I'm proud of you. You have learned a good lesson. Sharing and telling are better than fighting and ripping. That is the success of life."
+
+She taped the book back together and read the story to them. They listened and enjoyed it. They were not grumpy anymore. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the forest. They saw a big log that was good for climbing and jumping. They ran to the log and took turns to go on top of it.
+
+"Please, let me go first," Tom said to Lily. "I am older than you by two minutes."
+
+"No, please, let me go first," Lily said to Tom. "I am smarter than you by two points."
+
+They argued and pushed each other until they both fell off the log. They cried and rubbed their knees and elbows.
+
+A man came out of the trees and saw them. He was wearing a suit and a hat and had a briefcase. He looked angry and mean.
+
+"Hey, you kids, get away from my log!" he shouted. "This is my log and it is very expensive. I bought it from a lumberjack for a lot of money. I need it for my fireplace."
+
+Tom and Lily were scared and confused. They did not know that the log belonged to anyone. They thought it was just a log in the forest.
+
+"Please, mister, we are sorry," Tom said. "We did not know it was your log. We just wanted to play."
+
+"Please, mister, we are sorry," Lily said. "We did not mean to hurt your log. We just wanted to have fun."
+
+The man did not listen to them. He grabbed his log and threw it into his truck. He drove away fast and left Tom and Lily alone in the forest. He did not care that they were hurt and sad.
+
+Tom and Lily hugged each other and cried. They wished they had not fought over the log. They wished they had not met the man. They wished they had stayed at home.
+One day, Ben and Lily were playing in their room. They had many toys and books, but they wanted to try something new. They saw a big carpet on the floor. It had many colors and shapes.
+
+"Let's pretend this is a magic carpet," said Ben. "We can wander to different places and have fun."
+
+"OK," said Lily. "Where do you want to go first?"
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He liked animals, so he said, "Let's go to the zoo. We can see the lions and the monkeys and the elephants."
+
+They sat on the carpet and held hands. They closed their eyes and made a wish. They imagined they were flying in the air, over the trees and the houses, to the zoo.
+
+When they opened their eyes, they saw a big sign that said "Zoo". They were so happy. They jumped off the carpet and ran to the gate. They paid with some coins they had in their pockets. They entered the zoo and saw many animals. They heard them roar and chatter and trumpet. They fed them some peanuts and bananas. They took pictures with their camera.
+
+They had a lot of fun, but they also remembered their carpet. They did not want to lose it. They put it in a locker and kept the key. They said they would come back for it later.
+
+They wandered around the zoo for a while, until they saw a serious man in a uniform. He had a badge and a whistle. He was a zookeeper. He looked at them and asked, "Where are your parents, kids? You are too young to be here alone."
+
+Ben and Lily were scared. They did not know what to say. They did not want to get in trouble. They looked at each other and said, "We came with our magic carpet. It is in the locker. We can show you."
+
+The zookeeper did not believe them. He thought they were making up stories. He said, "That is nonsense. There is no such thing as a magic carpet. You are lying. Come with me. I will call your parents and tell them what you did."
+
+He took them by the hand and led them to his office. He locked the door and picked up the phone. He dialed a number and waited for someone to answer.
+
+Ben and Lily were sad. They wished they had never left their room. They wished they had never seen the carpet. They wished they could go back home. They hoped their parents would not be angry. They hoped their carpet would still be there. They hoped it was still magic.
+One day, a boy named Tom wanted to help his mom make soup. He saw a big pot of water on the stove and a bag of potatoes on the table. He thought he could peel the potatoes and put them in the water.
+
+He took a knife and a potato and started to peel it. But he was careless and did not pay attention to what he was doing. He cut his finger and dropped the potato and the knife on the floor.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" he cried. His mom heard him and ran to the kitchen. She saw the mess and the blood and was very worried.
+
+"Tom, what happened?" she asked. "Are you okay?"
+
+"I wanted to help you make soup, but I was careless and I cut myself," Tom said, sobbing.
+
+"Oh, Tom, I appreciate your help, but you should not use a knife without asking me first. It is very dangerous and you could hurt yourself badly. You should always be careful and listen to your mom when you do something new," she said.
+
+She took him to the sink and washed his wound. Then she put a band-aid on it and gave him a hug.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. I love you," Tom said.
+
+"I love you too, Tom. Next time, let me show you how to peel a potato safely, okay?" she said.
+
+"Okay, mom. Thank you," Tom said.
+
+They cleaned up the floor and finished making the soup together. Tom learned his lesson and was more careful from then on.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big house with a red roof and a chimney. They wanted to see what was inside the chimney, so they ran to the house and climbed on the roof.
+
+"Look, Ben, there is a hole in the chimney!" Lily said. "Maybe we can see the fire or the smoke."
+
+"Or maybe we can see Santa!" Ben said. He loved Santa and his gifts. He crawled to the hole and peeked inside.
+
+But there was no fire, no smoke, and no Santa. There was only a shiny thing that looked like a star. It was very bright and made Ben's eyes hurt.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Ben cried. "Lily, help me! There is a shine in the chimney and it hurts!"
+
+Lily heard Ben's cry and ran to him. She saw the shiny thing and pulled Ben away from the hole.
+
+"Ben, are you okay?" she asked. "What was that shine?"
+
+"I don't know, Lily. It was very bad. It made me feel hot and scared." Ben said. He rubbed his eyes and hugged Lily.
+
+Lily hugged him back and said, "Don't worry, Ben. I'm here. Let's go away from the chimney. Maybe the shine is not for us. Maybe it is for someone else."
+
+They slid down the roof and ran back to their yard. They decided to never go near the chimney again. They played with their toys and forgot about the shine. They were happy and safe.
+Lily was going to visit her grandma with her mom and dad. She was very happy because she loved her grandma and her grandma's house. She wanted to help mom and dad pack their bags for the trip.
+
+She went to her room and found her favorite orange backpack. She opened it and looked inside. She saw her teddy bear, her book, and her crayons. She smiled and put them in her backpack. Then she thought of something else she wanted to bring.
+
+She ran to the kitchen and saw a big box of cereal on the counter. She loved cereal. It was crunchy and sweet and made her feel full. She grabbed the box and ran back to her room. She tried to put the box in her backpack, but it was too big. She pushed and pushed, but it did not fit.
+
+She was sad and confused. She did not want to leave the cereal behind. She wanted to share it with her grandma and eat it for breakfast. She started to cry and hugged the box.
+
+Mom heard her cry and came to her room. She saw Lily with the box of cereal and her backpack. She understood what Lily wanted to do. She smiled and hugged Lily.
+
+"Sweetie, you don't need to pack the cereal. Grandma has cereal at her house. She has many kinds of cereal. You can choose your favorite one when we get there. How does that sound?"
+
+Lily looked at mom and nodded. She felt better. She gave the box of cereal to mom and zipped up her backpack. She was ready to go. She picked up her backpack and her teddy bear and followed mom and dad to the car. She was excited to see grandma and eat cereal with her.
+Lily liked to paint. She had many colors and brushes. She painted on paper, on walls, on rocks, on anything. She was a playful painter.
+
+One day, her mom said, "Lily, we have to leave soon. We are going to grandma's house. Please put away your paints and brushes."
+
+But Lily did not want to leave. She wanted to paint more. She said, "No, mom. I want to paint. I want to paint you a picture."
+
+Her mom said, "Okay, Lily. You can paint one more picture. But hurry up. We have to leave in five minutes."
+
+Lily nodded. She took her paints and brushes and ran to the bathroom. She saw a big mirror on the wall. She thought, "This is a good place to paint. I can paint a picture of me and mom."
+
+She dipped her brush in red paint and started to paint on the mirror. She painted her face, her hair, her eyes, her nose, her mouth. She smiled. She looked like a clown. She dipped her brush in blue paint and started to paint her mom. She painted her face, her hair, her eyes, her nose, her mouth. She smiled. She looked like a clown too.
+
+She was having so much fun. She did not hear her mom calling her name. She did not see her mom coming into the bathroom. She did not notice her mom's angry face.
+
+She only heard her mom's loud voice, "Lily! What have you done? You have ruined the mirror! You are a naughty painter!"
+
+Lily dropped her brush. She looked at the mirror. She looked at her mom. She felt scared. She felt sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to paint you a picture. I wanted to make you happy."
+
+Her mom sighed. She said, "Lily, I love you. But you can't paint on the mirror. That's not a good place to paint. You have to clean it up. And we have to leave now. Come on, let's go to grandma's house. Maybe she has some paper for you to paint on."
+
+Lily nodded. She took a cloth and wiped the mirror. She put away her paints and brushes. She hugged her mom. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I love you too. Can we still go to grandma's house?"
+
+Her mom smiled. She said, "Yes, Lily. We can still go to grandma's house. Maybe she will like your paintings. But only on paper, okay?"
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Okay, mom. Only on paper. I'm a good painter."
+
+They left the bathroom. They left the house. They went to grandma's house. Lily hoped grandma would like her paintings. She hoped mom would not be mad at her anymore. She hoped she could be a playful painter again.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big white bird in the sky. It was light and fast. Lily and Tom wanted to see it closer.
+
+"Look, a white bird!" Lily said. "Let's give it some bread."
+
+"OK," Tom said. He had some bread in his bag. He took it out and broke it into pieces. He gave some to Lily. They threw the bread on the grass.
+
+The white bird saw the bread. It flew down and landed near them. It ate some bread. It was not afraid of Lily and Tom. They were happy.
+
+"Hello, white bird," Lily said. "You are so pretty. Do you want to be our friend?"
+
+The white bird nodded. It made a soft sound. It liked Lily and Tom. They were nice.
+
+"Can we touch you?" Tom asked. He reached out his hand.
+
+The white bird nodded again. It let Tom touch its feathers. They were soft and warm. Tom smiled.
+
+Lily wanted to touch the bird too. She moved closer. But she was too fast. She scared the bird. It flapped its wings and flew away.
+
+"Wait, white bird!" Lily cried. "Come back!"
+
+But the white bird did not come back. It flew higher and higher. It disappeared in the sky.
+
+Lily and Tom were sad. They had lost their new friend.
+
+"Maybe it will come back another day," Tom said.
+
+"Maybe," Lily said. "But we should be more careful next time. We should not scare it."
+
+They nodded. They learned a lesson. They hoped to see the white bird again.
+Anna and Ben are friends who like to play with bubbles. They have a big bottle of bubble soap and a wand. They blow bubbles in the park and watch them float in the air. They try to catch them and pop them.
+
+One day, they see a big scale in the park. It is for people to weigh themselves. Anna and Ben are curious. They want to know how much they weigh. They take turns to stand on the scale and look at the numbers.
+
+Anna weighs 15 kilos. Ben weighs 17 kilos. Ben is happy. He says, "I weigh more than you. I am bigger and stronger." Anna is sad. She says, "That's not fair. I want to weigh more too."
+
+They see a man walking by with a big balloon. The balloon is red and shiny. It has a string attached to it. Ben has an idea. He says, "Let's ask the man if we can borrow his balloon. Maybe it will make us weigh more."
+
+Anna and Ben run to the man. They are nosy. They say, "Hello, mister. Can we have your balloon for a minute? We want to weigh ourselves with it." The man is surprised. He says, "Why do you want to do that? The balloon is very light. It will not make you weigh more. It will make you weigh less."
+
+Anna and Ben do not understand. They say, "How can that be? The balloon is big and round. It must be heavy." The man says, "No, the balloon is filled with air. Air is lighter than air. The balloon pushes up on the string. It makes the string pull down on your hand. If you hold the balloon and stand on the scale, the scale will show a smaller number."
+
+Anna and Ben are confused. They say, "Can we try it?" The man says, "Okay, but be careful. Do not let go of the string. The balloon will fly away." He gives them the balloon and the string.
+
+Anna and Ben hold the balloon and stand on the scale together. They look at the numbers. The scale shows 14 kilos. Anna and Ben are amazed. They say, "Wow, the man was right. The balloon makes us weigh less. That's so funny."
+
+They laugh and thank the man. They give him back the balloon and the string. They run back to their bubbles. They blow more bubbles and have fun. They forget about the scale and the numbers. They realize that it does not matter how much they weigh. What matters is that they are happy and healthy and have good friends.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not be nosy about things that do not matter. Be happy with who you are and what you have. Enjoy the simple things in life.
+Lila likes to print pictures with her crayons. She prints flowers, stars, and animals. She prints on paper, on cardboard, and on the wall. She prints so much that she runs out of crayons. She is sad.
+
+She asks her mom for more crayons. Her mom says no. She says they have no money to buy more crayons. They have to save money for food and fuel. Fuel is what they need to make the car go. They are poor.
+
+Lila does not understand. She wants to print more pictures. She thinks of a plan. She goes to the garage and finds a can of fuel. She opens it and smells it. It is bad. She does not care. She dips her fingers in the fuel and prints on the floor. She prints fire, smoke, and boom.
+
+She is happy. She thinks her pictures are beautiful. She does not hear her mom scream. She does not see her mom run to the garage with a bucket of water. She does not feel the heat and the pain. She only sees her prints.
+Anna likes to walk with her mom and dad. They walk to the park, to the store, to the library. Sometimes they walk to the bakery and buy a muffin. Anna loves muffins. They are soft and sweet and have little bits of fruit inside.
+
+One day, Anna and her mom and dad walk to the bakery. Anna sees a big muffin in the window. It has blueberries and chocolate chips. Anna wants that muffin. She asks her mom and dad if she can have it. They say yes, but they have to wait in line.
+
+Anna is very excited. She holds her mom's hand and looks at the muffin. She can almost taste it. But then she sees a bird. The bird is on the roof of the bakery. It is brown and white and has a long tail. It sings a pretty song. Anna likes the bird. She lets go of her mom's hand and walks to the door of the bakery. She wants to see the bird better.
+
+But the door is not closed. It is open a little bit. Anna pushes the door and goes inside. She does not see the bird anymore. She sees a lot of people and a lot of muffins. She sees the big muffin in the window. She walks to the window and reaches for the muffin.
+
+But then she hears a loud noise. It is her mom and dad. They are calling her name. They are looking for her. They are scared. Anna is scared too. She does not know where she is. She does not know how to go back. She drops the muffin and starts to cry.
+
+A lady sees Anna. She works at the bakery. She is nice. She picks up Anna and gives her a hug. She asks her what her name is and where her mom and dad are. Anna tells her. The lady takes Anna to the door and looks outside. She sees Anna's mom and dad. They are running to the bakery. They are happy. They see Anna. They hug her and kiss her. They thank the lady. They are sorry. They are glad. Anna is glad too. She is safe. She is with her mom and dad. She does not want the muffin anymore. She just wants to walk with her mom and dad. They walk home and have a snack. They have cookies and milk. Anna likes cookies and milk. They are good. They are better than muffins.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play games. They had a game with cards that had pictures of animals on them. They took turns to pick a card and say the name of the animal. If they said it right, they could keep the card. If they said it wrong, they had to give the card to the other one. The one who had the most cards at the end would win.
+
+One day, they found a shiny crystal in the park. It was blue and sparkled in the sun. They both wanted to have it, but they did not know how to share it. They decided to play their game with the cards and the winner would get the crystal.
+
+They started to play, but soon they had a problem. Lily picked a card with a picture of a cow, but she said "moo". Tom said that was wrong, because "moo" was the sound the cow made, not the name of the animal. Lily said that was not fair, because she knew what a cow was, but she forgot the word. They argued and got angry.
+
+"Give me the card!" Tom said.
+
+"No, you give me the crystal!" Lily said.
+
+They pulled and pushed, but no one let go. The crystal fell to the ground and broke into pieces. They both gasped and felt sad.
+
+They looked at each other and realized they had been silly. They said they were sorry and hugged. They decided to share the pieces of the crystal and make a necklace for each other. They smiled and went home, happy to be friends again.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big factory near their house. The factory has many windows and pipes. It makes loud noises and smoke.
+
+"Let's go see the factory!" Tom says. He is curious and brave.
+
+"No, Tom, we can't. Mom and Dad said the factory is not for kids. It is dangerous and dirty." Lily says. She is careful and scared.
+
+"But look, Lily, the factory is colorful. It has red, blue, yellow, and green. Maybe it makes toys or candy." Tom says. He points to the factory.
+
+Lily looks at the factory. She sees the colors, but she also sees the smoke and the noises. She shakes her head.
+
+"Tom, the colors are not good. They are bad. They are from the smoke and the pipes. They make the air and the water sick. They are not toys or candy. They are trash." Lily says. She pulls Tom's hand.
+
+Tom listens to Lily. He feels sad and sorry. He does not want to make the air and the water sick. He does not want to go to the factory anymore.
+
+"OK, Lily, you are right. The factory is not colorful. It is ugly. Let's go play somewhere else." Tom says. He follows Lily.
+
+They run away from the factory. They find a park with grass and flowers. They play with a ball and a kite. They are happy and safe. They do not see the factory anymore.
+Lily and Ben are at the park with Mom. They see a big cart with many toys in it. The cart belongs to Sam, who is playing with his friends.
+
+"Look, Mom, toys!" Lily says. She runs to the cart and tries to reach a doll with long hair.
+
+"Stop, Lily, those are not our toys," Mom says. "They belong to Sam. You have to ask him first."
+
+But Lily does not listen. She pulls the doll from the cart and hugs it. The doll is dirty and has a hole in its dress.
+
+"Hey, that's my doll!" Sam says. He runs to Lily and tries to take the doll back. "Give it to me, now!"
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily says. She holds the doll tight and cries.
+
+"Let go, you are hurting her!" Sam says. He pulls harder and makes the hole bigger.
+
+"Stop, both of you!" Mom says. She comes to them and takes the doll from their hands. "This is not how you play. Lily, you have to say sorry to Sam. You cannot take his toys without asking. And Sam, you have to be gentle with your toys. You cannot rip them apart."
+
+Lily and Sam look at the doll and feel bad. They say sorry to each other and hug. Mom gives the doll back to Sam and helps him fix the hole. She tells Lily and Ben to play with their own toys or share nicely with others. They nod and smile. They learn a lesson and have fun at the park.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play together. One day, they decided to have a tea party with their toys. They set up a table and chairs in the garden and brought out their cups, plates and spoons. They also had a pot of water and some pretend tea bags.
+
+"Would you like some tea, Mr. Bear?" Lily asked, holding a cup to her teddy.
+
+"Yes, please, Lily. That would be lovely," Ben said, making his bear talk.
+
+They poured some water into the cups and pretended to add sugar and milk. They sipped their tea and made happy noises.
+
+"Would you like some tea, Mrs. Doll?" Ben asked, holding a cup to his doll.
+
+"Yes, please, Ben. That would be lovely," Lily said, making her doll talk.
+
+They poured some more water into the cups and pretended to add sugar and milk. They sipped their tea and made happy noises.
+
+They had a lot of fun with their tea party, until they heard their mums calling them for lunch.
+
+"Time to go, Lily and Ben. Come and wash your hands and have some real food," their mums said.
+
+"Okay, mums. We are coming," Lily and Ben said.
+
+They got up from their table and chairs and started to pack up their toys. But then they saw that their pot of water was empty.
+
+"Oh no, we have no more tea," Lily said.
+
+"That's okay, Lily. We can make more tea later," Ben said.
+
+"But what about Mr. Bear and Mrs. Doll? They might be thirsty," Lily said.
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He had an idea.
+
+"Why don't we leave them some water in their cups? That way, they can have some tea when we are gone," he said.
+
+Lily smiled. She liked Ben's idea.
+
+"That's very kind of you, Ben. You care about our toys," she said.
+
+They filled their cups with water from the tap and left them on the table for their toys.
+
+"Bye, Mr. Bear and Mrs. Doll. We will see you soon. Enjoy your tea," they said.
+
+They ran to their mums and had their lunch.
+
+Lily and Ben learned that it is nice to care about others, even if they are not real. They also learned that tea parties are fun, but real food is better. They had a lovely day.
+Sara liked to perform for her family. She would sing and dance and make funny faces. She had a red dress and a shiny hat that she wore when she performed. She felt happy when her family clapped and cheered for her.
+
+One day, Sara wanted to perform for her new friend, Lily. She invited Lily to her house and showed her her dress and hat. She said, "Do you want to see me perform? I can sing and dance and make you laugh."
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She sat on the couch and waited for Sara to start. Sara put on her dress and hat and stood in front of Lily. She opened her mouth to sing, but nothing came out. She tried again, but still no sound. She felt something in her throat that hurt. She could not sing.
+
+Sara felt upset. She wanted to perform for Lily, but she could not. She started to cry. She threw her hat on the floor and ran to her room.
+
+Lily felt sorry for Sara. She picked up the hat and followed Sara to her room. She knocked on the door and said, "Sara, can I come in? I want to talk to you."
+
+Sara opened the door and wiped her tears. She said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I wanted to perform for you, but I could not. I have a sore throat. I can't sing."
+
+Lily hugged Sara and said, "It's okay, Sara. I understand. You don't have to perform for me. You can just be my friend. We can play something else. Maybe we can draw or read or play with your toys."
+
+Sara smiled and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. I'm sorry I was upset. I hope my throat gets better soon. Then I can perform for you another day."
+
+Lily said, "I hope so too, Sara. But I like you anyway. You are fun and kind and smart. You don't need a dress or a hat to make me happy. You just need to be yourself."
+
+Sara and Lily hugged again and went to play. They had a good time and forgot about the sore throat. They were happy to be friends.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play outside. They had a big yard with many trees and flowers and a fence. One day, they decided to play hide and seek. Tim was the seeker and Sam was the hider.
+
+"Ready or not, here I come!" Tim shouted. He looked around the yard for Sam. He checked behind the fence, under the slide, and in the sandbox. He could not find Sam anywhere. He wondered where Sam was hiding.
+
+Sam was hiding behind a big bush. He was very quiet and still. He thought he had found the best spot. He smiled and waited for Tim to give up. He did not see the big bee that was buzzing near the bush. He did not hear the bee getting closer and closer to him.
+
+Tim was getting tired of looking for Sam. He thought maybe Sam had gone inside the house. He was about to give up when he heard a loud scream. He ran towards the sound. He saw Sam running out from behind the bush. He saw a big bee chasing Sam. He saw Sam crying and holding his arm.
+
+"Sam, are you okay?" Tim asked. He ran to Sam and hugged him. He saw a red bump on Sam's arm. He knew Sam was hurt by the bee.
+
+"It stings, it stings!" Sam sobbed. He was scared and in pain.
+
+"Come on, let's go inside. Mom will help you." Tim said. He helped Sam walk to the house. He was sorry for Sam. He wished he had found him sooner.
+
+They went inside the house. Mom saw them and knew something was wrong. She saw the bump on Sam's arm. She knew Sam was stung by a bee.
+
+"Oh, poor Sam. Let me see your arm." Mom said. She took Sam to the bathroom. She put some ice and cream on the bump. She gave Sam a hug and a kiss. She told him he would be okay.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. I feel better." Sam said. He smiled a little.
+
+"You're welcome, Sam. I'm glad you're okay." Mom said. She looked at Tim. She saw he was worried.
+
+"Tim, you're a good brother. You helped Sam when he was in trouble." Mom said. She gave Tim a hug and a kiss too. She told him he did a good job.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. I love Sam." Tim said. He hugged Mom and Sam. He was happy they were safe.
+
+They went to the living room. They sat on the couch. They watched a funny show. They laughed and cuddled. They forgot about the bee and the bush. They completed their game of hide and seek. They were happy and safe.
+Tom and Anna were adventurous kids. They liked to explore new places and have fun. One day, they decided to play on the lawn behind their house. They brought some toys and a blanket to supply their game.
+
+"Look, Anna, I found a big stick!" Tom said, holding up a branch. "We can use it as a sword or a wand or a fishing rod!"
+
+"Wow, that's cool, Tom!" Anna said, admiring the stick. "Can I have a turn?"
+
+"Sure, Anna, but first you have to find something for me. How about a hat or a crown or a mask?" Tom said, handing her the stick.
+
+Anna nodded and ran off to look for something. She searched the lawn for anything that could be a hat or a crown or a mask. She saw some leaves, some flowers, some rocks, and some bugs. She picked up a big leaf and put it on her head. "This is my hat!" she said, smiling.
+
+She ran back to Tom and showed him her hat. Tom laughed and said, "That's a great hat, Anna! You look like a queen or a fairy or a pirate!"
+
+"Thank you, Tom! And you look like a knight or a wizard or a fisherman!" Anna said, giving him back the stick.
+
+They took turns playing with the stick and the leaf, pretending to be different characters and having adventures. They had so much fun on the lawn that they didn't notice the time passing. They only stopped when their mom called them for lunch.
+
+"Kids, time to eat!" their mom said, waving from the door.
+
+"OK, mom, we're coming!" Tom and Anna said, gathering their toys and their blanket.
+
+They ran to the house, still talking about their game. They thanked their mom for the lunch and told her about their adventures on the lawn. Their mom smiled and listened, happy to see them so creative and happy. She thought they were very adventurous kids.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, Tom sees a new car toy in Anna's room. He wants to play with it. He takes the car toy and puts his old bear toy in its place. He thinks Anna will not notice.
+
+But Anna does notice. She sees her car toy is gone and her bear toy is there. She is sad and angry. She asks Tom, "Where is my car toy? Did you take it?" Tom feels scared. He does not want to lose his friend. He does not want to tell the truth.
+
+He says, "No, I did not take your car toy. Maybe it is under the bed. Or maybe someone else took it." Anna does not believe him. She says, "You are not honest. You are lying. You did take my car toy. I saw you. Give it back to me now!"
+
+Tom feels sorry. He knows he did a bad thing. He says, "I am sorry, Anna. You are right. I did take your car toy. I wanted to play with it. But it is yours. Here, take it back. And please take your bear toy too. I will replace it with another toy. Can we still be friends?"
+
+Anna feels happy. She says, "Thank you, Tom. I am glad you are honest now. You can play with my car toy sometimes. But you have to ask me first. And you have to share your toys too. Yes, we can still be friends. But you have to be nice and fair." Tom and Anna hug. They learn to be better friends.
+Lily was sad. She did not want to go to bed. She wanted to play with her toys and watch TV. But Mommy said it was time to sleep. She gave Lily a kiss and tucked her in with her blanket.
+
+"Good night, sweetie. I love you," Mommy said.
+
+"I love you too, Mommy. But I'm not sleepy," Lily said.
+
+Mommy smiled. "You will be soon. Just close your eyes and think of something nice. Maybe you can dream of a fairy or a unicorn."
+
+Lily sighed. She did not think that would work. She closed her eyes, but she still felt awake. She heard Mommy go to her room and turn off the light.
+
+Lily waited for a while. Then she opened her eyes again. She looked at her window. She saw the moon and the stars. They were bright and pretty. She wondered if there was a fairy or a unicorn out there.
+
+She got out of her bed. She took her blanket with her. She walked to the window. She felt the cool air on her face. She wrapped her blanket around her. She looked at the sky. She wished she could fly.
+
+She heard a noise. She turned around. She saw Mommy standing at the door.
+
+"Lily, what are you doing?" Mommy asked.
+
+"I'm looking at the moon and the stars, Mommy. They are so nice. Can I go there?" Lily asked.
+
+Mommy shook her head. "No, honey. You can't go there. You have to stay here. It's too late and too cold to go outside. Come on, let's go back to bed."
+
+Lily pouted. She did not want to go back to bed. She wanted to see more of the moon and the stars. But she knew Mommy was right. She followed Mommy to her bed. Mommy tucked her in again.
+
+"Maybe tomorrow you can see more of the moon and the stars, Lily. But now you have to sleep. It's good for you. It will make you grow and learn and have fun," Mommy said.
+
+Lily nodded. She hugged her blanket. She said good night to Mommy. She closed her eyes. She thought of the moon and the stars. She thought of a fairy and a unicorn. She smiled. She fell asleep.
+Tom and Mia are furry cats who live in a big house with their human friend, Sam. Sam likes to make things with metal and fuel in his garage. Sometimes, he lets Tom and Mia watch him, but he tells them to be careful and not touch anything.
+
+One day, Sam goes out to buy some food and leaves Tom and Mia alone in the garage. Tom is curious and wants to see what Sam does with the fuel. He jumps on a table and finds a big can with a red label. He pushes it with his paw and it falls to the floor. The can breaks and fuel spills everywhere.
+
+"Oh no!" Mia says. "That is bad! Sam will be angry! We have to clean it up!"
+
+But Tom is not scared. He thinks the fuel smells funny and looks shiny. He dips his tail in it and swings it around. He makes a big splash on the wall.
+
+"Look, Mia! I can paint with fuel! It is fun!" Tom says.
+
+Mia shakes her head. She thinks Tom is silly and naughty. She tries to find a cloth or a mop to wipe the fuel. But she is too late. Sam comes back and sees the mess. He is shocked and angry. He yells at Tom and Mia.
+
+"What have you done? This is very dangerous! Fuel can catch fire and burn! You could have hurt yourselves and the house! You are bad cats! Go to your room now!"
+
+Tom and Mia feel sorry and scared. They run to their room and hide under the bed. They wish they had listened to Sam and not touched the fuel. They hope Sam will forgive them and love them again.
+Lily and Tom were playing with crayons and paper. They liked to draw different things, like flowers, animals, and houses. Lily was very careful with her crayons. She always put them back in the box when she was done. Tom was not so careful. He left his crayons all over the floor.
+
+One day, Mom came into the room and saw the mess. She was not happy. She saw a big mark on the wall. It was red and blue and green. She asked Lily and Tom, "Who made this mark on the wall?"
+
+Lily and Tom looked at each other. Lily said, "It was not me, Mom. I always use paper. Tom made the mark. He likes to draw on the wall."
+
+Tom said, "No, Mom. It was not me. I only draw on paper. Lily made the mark. She likes to draw on the wall."
+
+Mom was not fooled. She said, "Lily and Tom, you are both lying. I can see your crayons on the floor. They match the mark on the wall. You both made the mark. You need to explain why you did it."
+
+Lily and Tom felt ashamed. They knew they did something wrong. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We wanted to make a big picture. We thought the wall was open and white. We did not think it would make you mad."
+
+Mom said, "I understand, but the wall is not open and white. It is part of our home. We need to keep it clean and nice. You should not draw on the wall. You should only draw on paper. And you should put your crayons back in the box when you are done. That is how you respect your things and your home."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We will not draw on the wall again. We will only draw on paper. And we will put our crayons back in the box when we are done. We will respect our things and our home."
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "Thank you, Lily and Tom. I forgive you. But you need to help me clean the mark on the wall. And next time, you can ask me if you want to make a big picture. I can help you find a better place to do it."
+
+Lily and Tom hugged Mom. They said, "We love you, Mom. Thank you for helping us. We will help you clean the mark on the wall. And next time, we will ask you if we want to make a big picture."
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: The story teaches the children to be honest, to respect their things and their home, and to ask for help when they need it.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden with their toys. They liked to pretend they were explorers and find new things. They saw a big pile of leaves and sticks and thought it would be fun to make a fire.
+
+"Let's make a fire, Ben!" Lily said. "We can use this stick and rub it fast on the leaves."
+
+Ben nodded and took the stick. He rubbed it hard on the leaves, but nothing happened. He tried again and again, but still no fire.
+
+"Maybe we need something else," Lily said. "Look, there is a matchbox on the table. Let's get it."
+
+Lily ran to the table and grabbed the matchbox. She opened it and saw many little sticks with red tips. She took one and struck it on the side of the box. A flame came out and made a hissing sound.
+
+"Wow, look, Ben, I made a fire!" Lily shouted. She ran back to the pile of leaves and sticks and threw the match on it.
+
+The match landed on the dry leaves and started a bigger fire. The fire grew and crackled and made smoke. Lily and Ben were scared and confused. They did not know what to do.
+
+"Help, help, fire, fire!" they cried.
+
+Their mom heard their cries and came out of the house. She saw the fire and grabbed a bucket of water. She ran to the fire and poured the water on it. The fire went out and made a sizzling sound.
+
+"What were you doing, Lily and Ben?" their mom asked. She was angry and worried. "You could have burned yourselves or the house. You should never play with matches. They are dangerous."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry and ashamed. They hugged their mom and said they were sorry.
+
+"We were trying to make a fire like explorers, mom," Lily said. "But we did not know it would be so big and scary."
+
+"We won't do it again, mom," Ben said. "We learned our lesson."
+
+Their mom hugged them back and said she was glad they were safe. She told them to always be careful and ask for help when they don't know something. She said fire can be useful, but also harmful, and they should respect it and not play with it.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and said they understood. They thanked their mom for saving them and said they loved her. They decided to play something else in the garden, something safer and funnier. They learned that fire is not a toy and they should not hurry to do things they don't know.
+Sara liked to create things with paper and glue. She had many stamps with different shapes and colors. She wanted to make a card for her mom's birthday. She cut a big heart from red paper and glued it on a white card. Then she looked for her stamps.
+
+She found her flower stamp and her star stamp, but she could not find her letter stamp. She wanted to write "I love you, Mom" on the card. She looked under her bed, in her closet, and in her toy box. She could not find it anywhere. She felt sad and angry. She did not know what to do.
+
+She heard a knock on the door. It was her brother Tom. He had a big smile on his face. He said, "Hi, Sara. Do you want to see what I made for Mom?" He showed her a picture he had drawn with crayons. It had a house, a sun, and a family. He had used Sara's letter stamp to write "Happy Birthday, Mom" on the bottom.
+
+Sara gasped. She saw her letter stamp in Tom's hand. She said, "That's my stamp! You took it without asking! Give it back to me!" She tried to grab it from him, but he held it tight. He said, "No, it's mine now. I found it in the living room. You left it there. Finders keepers!"
+
+Sara and Tom started to fight. They pulled and pushed and shouted. The stamp flew out of Tom's hand and landed on the floor. Sara and Tom both dived for it, but they bumped their heads. They both cried out in pain. They heard their mom coming up the stairs. They knew they were in trouble.
+
+Mom opened the door and saw the mess. She saw the card, the picture, and the stamp. She saw Sara and Tom holding their heads. She said, "What is going on here? Why are you fighting? Why are you using the stamp without asking?" She was not happy. She said, "You both need to say sorry to each other and share the stamp. Making a card for me is a nice thing to do, but not if you hurt each other. It is not difficult to be kind and respectful. Do you understand?"
+
+Sara and Tom nodded. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They said sorry to Mom and gave her their card and picture. Mom smiled and hugged them back. She said, "Thank you for your gifts. I love them. And I love you both. You are my best creations."
+Ben and Lily are playing with a big ball of string. They like to make shapes and patterns with it on the floor. They also like to wrap it around their toys and pretend they are gifts.
+
+"Look, Lily, I made a star!" Ben says, showing his sister his string shape.
+
+"That's nice, Ben. Can I make one too?" Lily asks, reaching for the string.
+
+"OK, but be careful. The string is heavy and it can break," Ben warns.
+
+Lily takes some string and tries to copy Ben's star. But she pulls too hard and the string snaps. The ball of string rolls away and hits the door.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily cries. "We broke the string!"
+
+Ben runs after the ball of string. He wants to catch it before it goes outside. He opens the door and sees the ball of string rolling down the stairs.
+
+"Stop, string, stop!" Ben shouts.
+
+But the string does not stop. It keeps rolling and rolling until it reaches the bottom of the stairs. There, it bumps into a big dog. The dog barks and chases the ball of string.
+
+"Help, help!" Ben yells. "The dog has our string!"
+
+Lily hears Ben's voice and runs to the door. She sees Ben and the dog and the string. She is scared and worried.
+
+"Ben, come back! Stay here!" Lily calls.
+
+But Ben does not hear her. He wants to get the string back. He follows the dog and the string into the yard.
+
+Lily does not know what to do. She wants to help Ben, but she is afraid of the dog. She looks around and sees their mom in the kitchen. She runs to her and tells her what happened.
+
+"Mom, mom, Ben and the string and the dog!" Lily says.
+
+Mom listens to Lily and understands. She puts down her spoon and goes to the door. She sees Ben and the dog and the string. She is not scared or worried. She knows the dog. He is their neighbor's dog. He is friendly and playful. He likes to chase things.
+
+"Ben, Ben, come here!" Mom says.
+
+Ben hears Mom's voice and turns around. He sees Mom and Lily and the door. He is happy and relieved. He runs to them and hugs them.
+
+"Mom, Lily, I'm sorry. I broke the string and the dog took it," Ben says.
+
+"It's OK, Ben. It was an accident. The string is not important. You are important. And the dog is not mean. He is just having fun. Come on, let's go and say hello to him," Mom says.
+
+Mom, Ben and Lily go to the yard. They find the dog and the ball of string. The dog wags his tail and licks their faces. He gives them the ball of string. He wants to play with them.
+
+"Thank you, dog. You are a good dog. Do you want to play with us?" Ben asks.
+
+The dog barks and nods. He likes Ben and Lily and Mom. He likes the string too. He thinks it is a toy.
+
+"OK, dog. We can play with you. But we have to be gentle with the string. It is heavy and it can break," Lily says.
+
+The dog agrees. He is gentle with the string. He lets Ben and Lily make shapes and patterns with it. He also lets them wrap it around him and pretend he is a gift.
+
+They all have fun. They play with the string and the dog until it is time to go inside. They say goodbye to the dog and thank him for the string. They take the string with them and put it away. They promise to play with it again another day. They also promise to play with the dog again another day. They are happy. They are friends.
+Ben likes to cook with his mom. He helps her stir the soup in the big pot. He uses a wooden spoon and makes circles in the soup. He likes to see the bubbles and the steam.
+
+Mom says stirring is good for his brain. She says his brain is like a muscle that needs to work out. She says stirring makes his brain strong and smart. Ben wants to have a strong and smart brain.
+
+When the soup is ready, mom puts some in a bowl for Ben. She adds some cheese and crackers. She says cheese and crackers are also good for his brain. Ben eats his soup and cheese and crackers. He feels warm and happy. He thanks his mom for the yummy food and the fun time. He gives her a big hug and a kiss. Mom smiles and hugs him back. She says he is her strong and smart boy.
+Anna loved to play in the snow. She made snowmen, snow angels, and snow forts with her friends. But her favorite thing was to look for snowflakes. She knew that each snowflake was unique, like a tiny crystal. She liked to catch them on her mittens and see their shapes.
+
+One day, she found a very special snowflake. It was bigger than the others, and it sparkled in the sun. It had six points, like a star, and each point had a different pattern. Anna was so happy. She wanted to keep the snowflake forever. She put it in her pocket and ran home.
+
+She showed the snowflake to her mom and dad. They said it was beautiful and praised her for finding it. They told her to put it in the freezer, so it would not melt. Anna did as they said, and went to bed, dreaming of her snowflake.
+
+The next morning, she woke up early and ran to the freezer. She opened the door and looked for her snowflake. But she could not find it. She searched and searched, but it was gone. She felt sad and confused. Where did it go?
+
+She did not know that her brother had taken it out of the freezer. He wanted to see it too, but he did not know it was Anna's. He thought it was just a piece of ice. He took it to his room and played with it. He threw it in the air, and caught it. He put it on his tongue, and tasted it. He rubbed it on his cheek, and felt it. He did not notice that it was melting, and losing its shape.
+
+He got bored and left it on his desk. He went to have breakfast, and forgot about it. The snowflake turned into a drop of water, and dripped on the floor. It was gone, like it never existed. Anna never saw her snowflake again. She shivered, and felt a tear on her cheek. She wished she had kept it in her hand, and not in her pocket.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play at the park. They like to slide on the big slide. It is fun and fast.
+
+One day, they go to the park with their moms. But the park is very loud. There are many big kids. They run and shout and push. Anna and Ben are scared. They do not want to slide.
+
+"Let's go to the swings," Anna says. "They are quiet and nice."
+
+"No, I want to slide," Ben says. "The slide is more fun."
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They do not agree. They do not know what to do.
+
+Their moms see them. They are smart and kind. They have an idea.
+
+"Why don't you take turns?" one mom says. "You can slide first, Ben, and then Anna can slide. Then you can swing together."
+
+Anna and Ben think. They like the idea. They say sorry to each other. They hug and smile.
+
+They go to the slide. Ben slides first. He is brave and happy. He says, "Whee!"
+
+Then Anna slides. She is careful and proud. She says, "Yay!"
+
+They go to the swings. They swing high and low. They laugh and sing.
+
+They have fun. They are friends. They are glad.
+Tim was a shy youth. He did not like to talk to other kids or play with them. He liked to read books and draw pictures by himself. He had a big sister, Liz, who was very loud and bossy. She always told him what to do and made fun of him.
+
+One day, Liz wanted to play with Tim's toys. She grabbed his favorite car and said, "This is mine now. You have too many toys. You are a baby." Tim felt angry and sad. He said, "No, Liz. That is my car. Give it back. You are mean." He tried to take the car from Liz, but she was stronger and pulled it away.
+
+Liz laughed and said, "You are so weak and silly. You can't do anything. You are a crybaby." She stuck out her tongue and made a face at Tim. Tim felt more angry and sad. He did not know what to do. He wanted to make Liz stop. He raised his hand and slapped Liz on the cheek.
+
+Liz was shocked and hurt. She dropped the car and started to cry. She ran to their mom and said, "Mom, Tim slapped me. He is bad. He hurt me." Mom came to see what happened. She saw Liz's red cheek and Tim's scared face. She said, "Tim, why did you slap Liz? That is not nice. You should not hit your sister. You should say sorry."
+
+Tim felt sorry and ashamed. He did not want to hurt Liz. He did not want to be bad. He said, "I'm sorry, Liz. I'm sorry, Mom. I slapped Liz because she took my car and called me names. She was mean to me." Mom said, "I understand, Tim. But slapping is not the answer. You should use your words and tell Liz how you feel. And Liz, you should not take Tim's toys and tease him. You should be kind and share. You should say sorry too."
+
+Liz said, "I'm sorry, Tim. I'm sorry, Mom. I took Tim's car and called him names. I was mean to him." Mom said, "Thank you, Liz. Thank you, Tim. I'm glad you both said sorry. Now, can you hug and make up?" Tim and Liz hugged and said, "I love you." Mom smiled and said, "I love you too. Now, why don't you play nicely together? You can both use the car and take turns." Tim and Liz nodded and went to play with the car. They were happy and friendly. They learned a lesson.
+Sam was sad. He had a big ouch on his leg. He fell from a high slide at the park. Mom took him to the hospital. He did not like the hospital. It was loud and scary.
+
+A nice lady in a white dress came to see Sam. She smiled and said, "Hello, Sam. I am a nurse. I will help you feel better. What is your favorite toy?"
+
+Sam hugged his teddy bear. He said, "This is Ted. He is my best friend. He makes me happy."
+
+The nurse nodded. She said, "Ted is very cute. He can stay with you. I will give you some medicine to make the ouch go away. It will sting a little, but it will be quick. Can you be brave for me?"
+
+Sam nodded. He was scared, but he wanted the ouch to stop. He held Ted tight. He closed his eyes. He felt a pinch on his leg. He cried out. The nurse said, "Good job, Sam. You are very brave. The medicine will work soon. You can have a sticker and a juice box. Do you like stickers and juice boxes?"
+
+Sam nodded. He wiped his tears. He said, "Thank you, nurse. You are very nice. Can I have a dinosaur sticker and a red juice box?"
+
+The nurse smiled. She said, "Of course, Sam. You can have anything you want. You are a good boy. I will be back soon to check on you. You can rest and play with Ted. He will comfort you."
+
+Sam smiled. He felt a little better. He put the dinosaur sticker on Ted's chest. He drank the red juice box. He said, "I love you, Ted. You are a good friend. You comfort me." He snuggled with Ted. He fell asleep. Mom kissed his forehead. She said, "I love you, Sam. You are a good son. You comfort me."
+Sara and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make food with the pots and pans. Sara found a big white thing in the fridge. She did not know what it was.
+
+"Look, Tom, what is this?" she asked, holding the white thing.
+
+Tom looked at it and scratched his head. He did not know either.
+
+"Maybe it is a flower," he said. "A big white flower."
+
+Sara smiled. She liked flowers. She put the white thing in a pot and filled it with water. She set the pot on the stove and turned the knob.
+
+"Let's cook the flower," she said. "It will be yummy."
+
+Tom nodded. He found some salt and pepper and sprinkled them on the water. He also added some cheese and ketchup. He thought it would make the flower taste better.
+
+They waited for the flower to cook. They heard the water bubble and the pot make noise. They smelled the cheese and the ketchup. They were hungry.
+
+"Is it done?" Tom asked.
+
+Sara peeked into the pot. She saw the white thing was soft and mushy. She took a spoon and scooped some of it. She blew on it and tasted it.
+
+"Mmm, it is good," she said. "It is incredible."
+
+Tom took a spoon too and tried some. He agreed. It was incredible.
+
+They ate the whole pot of the white thing. They did not know it was cauliflower. They only knew it was delicious. They were happy. They hugged each other and said, "We are the best chefs ever."
+Lily loved to play with her violin. She had a small violin that her grandma gave her. She liked to make sounds with it and pretend she was a big musician. She would play for her toys and her family.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to show her violin to her friend Sam. She took it to his house and knocked on the door. Sam opened the door and smiled.
+
+"Hi, Lily! What do you have there?" he asked.
+
+"It's my violin! Do you want to see?" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, please! Can I hold it?" Sam said.
+
+Lily nodded and gave him her violin. Sam took it carefully and looked at it. He touched the strings and the bow. He tried to play, but it sounded funny.
+
+"Oops, I don't know how to play," he said.
+
+"That's okay, Sam. I can teach you. You have to hold it like this and move the bow like this," Lily said. She showed him how to play a simple song.
+
+"Wow, you're good, Lily! Can I try?" Sam said.
+
+"Sure, Sam. Here you go," Lily said. She gave him back the violin and the bow.
+
+Sam tried to copy what Lily did. He played the song slowly and softly. He made some mistakes, but he did not give up. He smiled when he finished.
+
+"Did I do it, Lily?" he asked.
+
+"Yes, Sam, you did it! You played the violin! I'm proud of you!" Lily said.
+
+"Thank you, Lily! You're a great teacher! I'm proud of you, too!" Sam said.
+
+They hugged and laughed. They played with the violin some more. They had fun and learned something new. They were happy and proud.
+Anna loved her mommy very much. She wanted to make her happy on her birthday. She took some paper and crayons and made a card for her. She drew a big heart and wrote "I love you" with her best letters. She put the card in an envelope and hid it under her pillow.
+
+She waited for mommy to come home from work. She was obedient and did not make a mess. She helped daddy set the table and put some flowers in a vase. She heard the door open and ran to the hall. She saw mommy smiling and holding a bag.
+
+"Hi, sweetie, I'm home!" mommy said and hugged Anna. "Did you have a good day?"
+
+"Yes, mommy, I have a surprise for you!" Anna said and pulled mommy to her room. She lifted her pillow and showed her the card. "Happy birthday, mommy! I made this for you!"
+
+Mommy opened the card and gasped. She hugged Anna again and kissed her cheek. "This is the best gift ever, Anna! Thank you so much! You are such a wonderful daughter!"
+
+Anna felt happy and proud. She hugged mommy back and said, "You are welcome, mommy! I love you so much!"
+Ben and Lily were best friends. They liked to play with toys, read books and draw pictures. One day, they found a big book with many words in it. They wanted to learn the words and sound smart.
+
+"Look, this word is 'foolish'. It means you do something silly or bad," Ben said, pointing to the word.
+
+"Can you use it in a sentence?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure. You are foolish if you don't share your toys with me," Ben said, smiling.
+
+Lily did not like that. She thought Ben was being mean and greedy. She said, "No, you are foolish if you think I will let you have all my toys. They are mine and I can play with them."
+
+Ben got angry. He said, "Fine, then I will not be your friend anymore. You are a foolish girl and I don't like you."
+
+He grabbed the book and ran away. Lily felt sad and lonely. She wished she had not fought with Ben over the toys.
+
+The next day, Ben and Lily saw each other at the park. They both missed each other, but they were too proud to say sorry. They looked away and played with other kids.
+
+But they did not have fun. The other kids were not as nice or funny as Ben and Lily. They did not share their toys or books or pictures. They said mean words and made fun of Ben and Lily.
+
+Ben and Lily realized they had made a mistake. They had been foolish to fight over the toys and the book. They had lost their best friend for nothing.
+
+They decided to say sorry and make up. They ran to each other and hugged.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. You are not foolish. You are smart and kind. I will share my toys with you," Lily said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. You are not foolish. You are clever and sweet. I will share my book with you," Ben said.
+
+They smiled and played together again. They learned the words in the book and helped each other. They were happy and wise.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't be foolish and fight with your friends over small things. Share and be kind and you will have more fun.
+Lily was a baby who liked to act. She liked to make funny faces, to pretend to be a lion, to sing and dance. She had many toys in her crib, but she wanted to play with someone else. She felt lonely in her crib.
+
+One day, she saw a big boy outside her window. He was playing with a ball and a dog. He looked happy and fun. Lily wanted to play with him. She called out, "Hi, boy! Hi, dog! Come and play with me!"
+
+The boy heard her and came to the window. He smiled and said, "Hi, baby! What is your name?"
+
+"I am Lily. I like to act. Do you like to act too?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, I do. I like to act like a superhero, or a pirate, or a cowboy. Do you want to see?" The boy said.
+
+"Yes, please!" Lily said.
+
+The boy put on a cape and a mask and said, "I am Superboy! I can fly and save the world!" He jumped and ran around the yard.
+
+Lily clapped and laughed. She said, "You are very good at acting, Superboy! Can I be your sidekick?"
+
+"Sure, you can. You can be Superbaby! You can use your toys as your superpowers!" The boy said.
+
+Lily picked up a teddy bear and said, "This is my super teddy. He can hug and comfort anyone who is sad or scared." She hugged the teddy and smiled.
+
+The boy and the dog came closer to the window. They said, "We like your super teddy, Superbaby. He is very cute and soft. Can we hug him too?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, you can. He likes to make new friends. Come and play with me in my crib!"
+
+The boy and the dog climbed up to the window and crawled into the crib. They hugged the super teddy and played with Lily. They acted like superheroes, pirates, cowboys, and many other things. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Lily was not lonely anymore. She had made new friends who liked to act like her. She was very happy in her crib.
+Ben and Lily were playing in their room. They had many toys, but they liked to make new things with them. They had a big box, some paper, and some tape. They wanted to make a car.
+
+"Let's attach the paper to the box," Ben said. "It will be the windows."
+
+"OK," Lily said. She helped Ben cut the paper and tape it to the box. They made four windows and a door.
+
+"Now we need wheels," Ben said. He looked around the room. He saw a rug on the floor. It was round and soft. "I have an idea. Let's use the rug as a wheel."
+
+Lily nodded. She liked Ben's idea. They rolled the rug and taped it to the bottom of the box. They did the same with another rug. They had two wheels.
+
+"Wow, our car is almost done," Ben said. He was happy. He wanted to drive the car.
+
+"Wait, we need a steering wheel," Lily said. She thought for a moment. She saw a plate on the table. It was hot. Mom had given them cookies on it. "How about this plate?"
+
+Ben agreed. He took the plate and taped it to the front of the box. He was careful not to touch the hot part. He made a hole in the middle of the plate. He put a stick through it. It was the steering wheel.
+
+"Yay, our car is done," Lily said. She was excited. She wanted to ride the car.
+
+"Let's go," Ben said. He got inside the box and held the stick. Lily got in behind him and closed the door. They pretended to drive the car. They made noises like vroom and beep. They had fun. They were proud of their car.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the living room. They see a wide vase on the table. The vase is blue and has flowers on it. Lily likes the vase. She wants to touch it.
+
+"Look, Ben, a vase!" Lily says. "It is so pretty. Can I touch it?"
+
+Ben shakes his head. "No, Lily, no. Mommy says the vase is not for playing. It is for looking. If you touch it, it might break. Then Mommy will be sad."
+
+Lily pouts. She does not like Ben's answer. She thinks the vase is for playing. She wants to touch it. She waits for Ben to look away. Then she reaches for the vase.
+
+But Ben sees her. He shouts, "Lily, no! Stop!" He runs to her and tries to pull her hand away. But it is too late. Lily's hand hits the vase. The vase falls off the table. It breaks into many pieces. The flowers fall on the floor.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They hear Mommy coming. They do not know what to do. They look at each other. They look at the broken vase. They look at Mommy. They say, "Sorry, Mommy, sorry!"
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big tunnel made of wood and metal. They wanted to go inside and see what was there.
+
+"Come on, let's go!" Tom said. He ran to the tunnel and looked inside. It was dark and quiet.
+
+Lily was scared. She did not like dark and quiet places. She stayed behind and hugged her teddy bear.
+
+"Tom, come back!" she cried. "I don't want to go in the tunnel!"
+
+Tom came out of the tunnel. He saw Lily's face. She was sad and scared.
+
+"Why don't you want to go in the tunnel?" he asked. "It's fun and cool!"
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not know how to explain. She just felt bad.
+
+Tom thought for a moment. He had an idea.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a flashlight!" he said. He took out a small flashlight from his pocket. He turned it on and shone it on the tunnel. "See? It's not so dark and quiet anymore. You can see the walls and the floor and the ceiling. And you can hear me and the flashlight."
+
+Lily looked at the tunnel. She saw the light and heard the sound. She felt a little better.
+
+"Can I hold the flashlight?" she asked.
+
+"Sure, you can!" Tom said. He gave her the flashlight. "Now, let's go in the tunnel together. We can hold hands and talk and explore. Maybe we'll find something interesting!"
+
+Lily nodded. She held the flashlight and Tom's hand. They walked into the tunnel. They were not scared anymore. They were curious and happy.
+
+As they walked, they saw a chubby squirrel sitting on a branch. It was eating a nut. It looked at them and made a funny noise.
+
+"Hello, squirrel!" Lily said. She shone the flashlight on the squirrel. "You are so chubby and cute!"
+
+The squirrel dropped the nut and ran away. It was shy and scared.
+
+Lily and Tom laughed. They kept walking and looking for more animals and things. They had fun in the tunnel. They learned a lot. They thanked the flashlight for helping them. They were brave and smart.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run, swing, slide and climb. They were very happy and eager to try everything.
+
+But it was a hot day and the sun was bright. Sara felt thirsty and tired. She saw a big tree with a lot of shade under it. She said to Ben, "Let's go to the tree and rest. It is cool and nice there."
+
+But Ben did not want to stop playing. He said, "No, I want to play more. The tree is boring. Come with me to the sandbox. We can make a castle."
+
+Sara did not like the sandbox. It was dusty and dirty. She said, "No, I want to go to the tree. The sandbox is yucky. Come with me to the tree. We can read a book."
+
+But Ben did not want to read a book. He said, "No, I want to play more. The book is dull. Come with me to the seesaw. We can go up and down."
+
+Sara did not like the seesaw. It was hard and shaky. She said, "No, I want to go to the tree. The seesaw is scary. Come with me to the tree. We can have a snack."
+
+But Ben did not want to have a snack. He said, "No, I want to play more. The snack is not fun. Come with me to the merry-go-round. We can spin and spin."
+
+Sara did not like the merry-go-round. It was dizzy and noisy. She said, "No, I want to go to the tree. The merry-go-round is sick. Come with me to the tree. Please, Ben, please."
+
+But Ben did not listen to Sara. He ignored her and ran to the merry-go-round. He left Sara alone.
+
+Sara felt sad and angry. She did not want to play with Ben anymore. She went to the tree and sat under the shade. She took out her water bottle and her favorite book. She drank some water and read her book. She felt cool and calm.
+
+She saw a girl with a red dress and a yellow hat. The girl came to the tree and smiled at Sara. She said, "Hi, I am Lily. Can I sit with you? I like your book. It is my favorite too."
+
+Sara smiled back at Lily. She said, "Hi, I am Sara. Yes, you can sit with me. I like your hat. It is very pretty."
+
+Lily and Sara became friends. They shared their water and their books. They talked and laughed. They had a lot of fun.
+
+They did not see Ben. He was still on the merry-go-round. He was spinning and spinning. He felt hot and sick. He wished he had gone to the tree with Sara. He wished he had not ignored her. He was not happy. He was sorry.
+Lila did not like prunes. She thought they were wrinkly and sour and made her tummy hurt. But her grandma always gave her prunes for breakfast when she stayed with her. Grandma said prunes were good for her and helped her go to the bathroom.
+
+One morning, Lila saw a bowl of prunes on the table. She sighed and looked at her grandma. "Do I have to eat them?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, you do, my dear," Grandma said. "They are healthy and delicious. And you don't want to be uncomfortable, do you?"
+
+Lila shook her head. She did not want to be uncomfortable. She remembered the last time she did not eat her prunes. She had a hard time going to the bathroom and it hurt a lot. She did not want that to happen again.
+
+She picked up a prune and put it in her mouth. She made a face and chewed slowly. She tried to think of something else, like the park or the puppies or the rainbow. She swallowed the prune and reached for another one. She hoped they would be gone soon. She smiled at her grandma and said, "Thank you, Grandma. I love you."
+
+Grandma smiled back and said, "I love you too, Lila. You are a good girl. And you know what? After you finish your prunes, we can go to the park and play with the puppies and look for the rainbow. How does that sound?"
+
+Lila's eyes lit up. She liked the park and the puppies and the rainbow. She ate the rest of her prunes as fast as she could. She did not mind them so much anymore. She was happy and excited. She hugged her grandma and said, "That sounds great, Grandma. Let's go!"
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to look at the flowers and smell them. Lily saw a big red flower that was not open yet. She wanted to see it bloom.
+
+"Look, Ben, a big red flower! Do you think it will bloom soon?" she asked.
+
+Ben nodded. He liked red flowers too. He picked up a stick and pretended it was a gun. He liked to play soldiers and pirates.
+
+"Bang, bang, I shoot the bad guys!" he said, pointing the stick at the bushes.
+
+Lily did not like guns. She thought they were scary and loud. She did not like to play soldiers and pirates. She liked to play fairies and princesses.
+
+"Ben, stop it! Guns are scary! You will scare the flower and it will not bloom!" she said, holding the flower gently.
+
+Ben did not listen. He thought guns were fun and cool. He did not care about the flower. He wanted to play his game.
+
+"Bang, bang, I shoot the flower too!" he said, pointing the stick at the flower.
+
+Lily was very angry and sad. She loved the flower and wanted to see it bloom. She did not want Ben to hurt it.
+
+"Ben, no! You are mean! The flower is not a bad guy! It is a beautiful flower!" she said, pushing Ben away.
+
+Ben was surprised and angry too. He did not like Lily to push him. He wanted to play his game.
+
+"Lily, yes! I am not mean! The flower is not a beautiful flower! It is a boring flower!" he said, pushing Lily back.
+
+They started to fight and shout. They did not see the flower open and bloom. They did not see the bright red petals and the yellow center. They did not see the bee that came to visit the flower. They did not see the smile on their mom's face when she saw the flower bloom. They only saw each other and their anger. They missed the beauty of the flower.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. They had a big bowl of white rice, some carrots, some cheese and some celery.
+
+"Look, Ben, I made a rice cake with cheese on top!" Lily said, showing him her plate.
+
+"That looks good, Lily. I admire your cooking skills. Can I have a bite?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, Ben. Here you go. And you can have some celery too. It is crunchy and green and good for you." Lily said, breaking off a piece of celery and giving it to him.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. I like celery. It makes a funny sound when I bite it. Listen!" Ben said, munching on the celery.
+
+Lily and Ben laughed and enjoyed their snack. They were happy and full. They decided to share their food with their mom and dad, who were in the living room.
+
+"Mom, Dad, we made you some food. Do you want to try it?" Lily asked, carrying her plate.
+
+"Wow, that looks delicious, Lily. You and Ben are very creative and generous. We would love to try it." Mom said, smiling.
+
+"Thank you, Lily and Ben. You are such good chefs. We admire your work. This rice cake is very tasty and the celery is very fresh." Dad said, taking a bite.
+
+Lily and Ben felt proud and happy. They hugged their mom and dad and said they loved them. They had a lot of fun playing in the kitchen.
+Lily and Ben were friends. They liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big fair near their home. They wanted to go and have fun.
+
+"Can we go to the fair, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, but you have to take your bags. It might rain later," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben took their bags and ran to the fair. They saw many things. They saw a big wheel, a merry-go-round, a clown, and a cotton candy stand. They were very happy.
+
+"Let's go on the big wheel, Ben!" Lily said.
+
+"OK, but where are our bags?" Ben asked.
+
+They looked around. They could not see their bags. They had left them on a bench. Someone had taken them.
+
+"Oh no, our bags are gone!" Lily cried.
+
+They ran to the bench. They saw a man with their bags. He was walking away.
+
+"Hey, those are our bags!" Ben shouted.
+
+He ran after the man. Lily followed him. The man saw them and ran faster. He went into a dark alley. Lily and Ben did not see him.
+
+They were scared. They did not know where they were. They heard a loud noise. It was thunder. It started to rain. They were wet and cold.
+
+They wanted to go home. They wanted their mom. They wanted their bags. They were very sad.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not leave your things unattended. Someone might take them. Always stay close to your mom or dad. They will keep you safe.
+Lily liked to play the piano. She had a small piano in her room. She learned how to make sounds with the keys. She wanted to play a song for her mom.
+
+She asked her dad to help her. He showed her how to play "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star". He said, "You have to press the keys in the right order. Like this: do, do, sol, sol, la, la, sol. Can you try?"
+
+Lily tried to copy her dad. She pressed the keys, but sometimes she made a mistake. She said, "Oops, sorry, dad. This is hard."
+
+Her dad smiled and said, "That's okay, Lily. You are doing great. Just keep practicing. You will complete the song soon."
+
+Lily practiced every day. She became better and better. She was playful and happy. She sang along with the piano. She said, "I can do it, dad. I can play the song."
+
+One day, she played the song for her mom. She said, "Mom, I have a surprise for you. Listen to what I can play." She pressed the keys and played "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star". She completed the song without any mistakes.
+
+Her mom clapped and hugged her. She said, "Wow, Lily, you are amazing. You played the piano so well. I am so proud of you."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. And I love the piano."
+Tom and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw a big pond with many ducks and geese. Tom and Lily liked to feed them bread crumbs. Mom gave them a bag of bread and told them to be careful.
+
+"Look, Lily, that goose is very playful!" Tom said. He pointed to a white goose that was swimming and splashing in the water. "He likes to have fun!"
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She threw some bread to the playful goose. The goose came closer and ate the bread. He honked happily and wagged his tail.
+
+Tom wanted to pet the goose. He took a step towards the pond. He reached out his hand to touch the goose's head. But the goose did not like that. He snapped his beak at Tom's hand. He hissed and flapped his wings.
+
+"Ow!" Tom cried. He pulled back his hand. It hurt. He was scared. He ran to Mom. Mom hugged him and checked his hand. It was not bleeding, but it was red.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom. That goose was not playful. He was angry. He thought you wanted to take his bread. You have to be careful with geese. They can bite." Mom said.
+
+Tom nodded. He learned his lesson. He did not want to step near the geese anymore. He and Lily decided to play on the swings instead. They had fun. They forgot about the angry goose.
+Lily liked to play with her flute. She made soft sounds with it and danced around the room. She felt happy when she played with her flute.
+
+One day, she saw a big mark on the wall. It was red and rough. She wondered who made it. She asked her mom.
+
+"Mom, who made this mark on the wall?" she said.
+
+Mom looked at the wall and frowned. She saw the red and rough mark. She knew who made it.
+
+"Tommy made it. He used his crayon and drew on the wall. He was naughty. He should not do that," she said.
+
+Lily felt sad. She did not like the mark on the wall. She liked her flute better. She had an idea.
+
+"Mom, can I play my flute for Tommy? Maybe he will like it and stop making marks on the wall," she said.
+
+Mom smiled. She thought it was a good idea.
+
+"Sure, you can play your flute for Tommy. Maybe he will learn to make nice sounds instead of marks. Let's go and find him," she said.
+
+Lily took her flute and followed her mom. She hoped Tommy would like her flute and be nice. She wanted to share her happiness with him.
+Ben was a boy who liked to play with his hair. He made it long and curly, or short and spiky, or tied it in a knot. He used his mom's clips and bands and hats to make his hair look funny. He did not like to go to the barber, because the barber cut his hair with scissors and made it boring.
+
+One day, his mom said, "Ben, we have to go to the barber today. Your hair is too messy and it covers your eyes. You need a haircut." Ben did not want to go. He said, "No, mom, I like my hair. It is brilliant. Please let me keep it." His mom said, "Sorry, Ben, but you have to go. The barber is nice and he will make your hair look neat and tidy. Come on, let's go."
+
+Ben was sad and scared. He did not want to lose his brilliant hair. He held his mom's hand and walked to the barber shop. He saw the barber sitting on a chair, with a big smile and a pair of scissors. The barber said, "Hello, Ben, I'm Bob the barber. I'm here to give you a haircut. Don't worry, it won't hurt and it will be fun. Come and sit on this big chair and I'll show you."
+
+Ben did not want to sit on the big chair. He wanted to run away. He said, "No, thank you, Bob. I don't want a haircut. I like my hair. It is brilliant. Please don't cut it." His mom said, "Ben, be a good boy and listen to Bob. He knows what he is doing. He will make your hair look even more brilliant. Trust me, you will like it."
+
+Ben felt his mom's urge. He knew she loved him and wanted him to be happy. He decided to be brave and try something new. He said, "Okay, mom, I will try. But please don't cut too much." He sat on the big chair and let Bob put a cape around him. Bob said, "Don't worry, Ben, I will only cut a little bit. I will make your hair look smart and cool. You will be the most handsome boy in town. Are you ready?" Ben said, "Yes, I'm ready. Let's do it."
+
+Bob started to cut Ben's hair with his scissors. He snipped and clipped and trimmed and shaped. He made Ben's hair look neat and tidy, but also fun and stylish. He showed Ben a mirror and said, "Look, Ben, what do you think? Do you like your haircut?" Ben looked at his reflection and saw his new hair. He was surprised and happy. He said, "Wow, Bob, you are right. My hair looks brilliant. Thank you, Bob. You are a great barber." His mom said, "See, Ben, I told you. You look wonderful. I'm so proud of you. You are a brave boy." Ben smiled and hugged his mom and Bob. He said, "Thank you, mom. Thank you, Bob. I like my haircut. I like my hair. It is brilliant."
+Lily and Ben are playing with a big red ball in the park. They like to bounce the ball and catch it. Sometimes they bounce the ball to each other and say, "Catch!"
+
+One day, they see a bald man walking his dog near the post. The post is tall and has a sign on it. The sign says, "No ball games". The bald man looks angry and says, "Stop bouncing that ball! You are making too much noise and you might hit my dog!"
+
+Lily and Ben are scared and stop bouncing the ball. They say, "Sorry, sir. We didn't mean to bother you or your dog." They pick up the ball and walk away.
+
+The bald man says, "Good. Now go and play somewhere else. And don't come back here with that ball!"
+
+Lily and Ben are sad and look for another place to play. They find a big hill with a lot of grass and flowers. They say, "This looks like a nice place to play. Maybe we can bounce the ball here."
+
+They start to bounce the ball again and have fun. They forget about the bald man and his dog. They say, "We like to bounce the ball. It makes us happy. Bounce, bounce, bounce!"
+Lily and Ben were playing with their dolls in the living room. They liked to pretend that the dolls were their parents and make them talk and do things. Lily had a doll with a long dress and a hat. Ben had a doll with a suit and a mustache.
+
+"Hello, dear," Lily made her doll say. "How was your day at work?"
+
+"Oh, it was very hard," Ben made his doll say. "I had to write a lot of papers and talk to a lot of people. I am very tired."
+
+"Then you should rest on the sofa," Lily made her doll say. "I will make you some tea and cookies."
+
+"That sounds nice," Ben made his doll say. "But first, I have to take off my mustache. It is very itchy and hot."
+
+Ben tried to pull off the mustache from his doll, but it was stuck with glue. He pulled harder and harder, but it did not come off. He got angry and frustrated. He decided to snap the mustache in half.
+
+"Snap!" The mustache broke into two pieces. Ben was happy. He threw the pieces on the floor.
+
+"Hey, what did you do?" Lily asked. She was shocked. She liked the mustache on the doll. She thought it made him look funny and smart.
+
+"I snapped the mustache," Ben said. "I did not like it. It was annoying."
+
+"But you ruined the doll," Lily said. "Now he looks weird and bald. You are mean."
+
+Lily started to cry. She hugged her doll and turned away from Ben. Ben felt sorry. He did not mean to make Lily cry. He did not know she liked the mustache so much.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Ben said. "I did not know. I was just restless. I wanted to play something else. Can we be friends again?"
+
+Lily looked at Ben. She saw that he was sorry. She also saw that he was bored. She thought of a way to make him happy and to fix the doll.
+
+"OK, Ben," Lily said. "We can be friends again. But you have to help me. We have to find a new mustache for the doll. Maybe we can use some yarn or some paper or some grass. Come on, let's go look."
+
+Ben smiled. He liked Lily's idea. He thought it would be fun to make a new mustache for the doll. He took his doll and followed Lily. They went to look for a new mustache. They forgot about the broken pieces on the floor. They were happy. They were friends.
+Lila was hungry. She wanted to eat something yummy. She opened the fridge and saw a can of tuna. She liked tuna. She took the can and a spoon and went to the living room.
+
+She saw her big brother Tom on the couch. He was playing a game on his tablet. He looked busy. Lila wanted to talk to him. She said, "Tom, can I eat this tuna?"
+
+Tom did not answer. He was too focused on his game. He did not hear Lila. Lila said louder, "Tom, can I eat this tuna?"
+
+Tom still did not answer. He was trying to win his game. He did not see Lila. Lila got angry. She said very loud, "Tom, can I eat this tuna?"
+
+Tom finally answered. He looked at Lila and saw the can of tuna in her hand. He said, "No, Lila, you can't eat that tuna. That tuna is dry. You need to mix it with mayonnaise and bread. It will taste better."
+
+Lila did not like mayonnaise and bread. She liked tuna by itself. She said, "But I want to eat this tuna. I don't want mayonnaise and bread."
+
+Tom said, "Sorry, Lila, but that tuna is not good for you. It is too dry. It will make you thirsty and sick. You should eat something else."
+
+Lila was sad. She did not want to eat something else. She wanted to eat tuna. She put the can of tuna back in the fridge and went to her room. She hoped that Tom would share his game with her later.
+Lily liked to hop. She hopped on the bed, on the sofa, on the grass. She hopped like a bunny, like a frog, like a kangaroo. She hopped so much that her mom said, "Lily, stop hopping! You will break something!"
+
+But Lily did not stop. She wanted to hop more and more. She saw a big motorcycle in the street. It was shiny and loud and fast. Lily wanted to hop on it. She ran to the motorcycle and climbed on it. She did not know how to ride it, but she did not care. She hopped on the seat and pushed the buttons.
+
+The motorcycle started to move. It went vroom vroom vroom. Lily was scared. She did not like the motorcycle. She wanted to get off. She cried, "Help! Help! Help!"
+
+A man heard Lily. He was the owner of the motorcycle. He ran to Lily and stopped the motorcycle. He was angry and worried. He said, "What are you doing, little girl? This is not a toy. This is a dangerous machine. You could have hurt yourself or someone else. You should not hop on things that are not yours."
+
+Lily was sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, mister. I like to hop. But I don't like the motorcycle. It is not normal. It is scary. Can I hop on something else?"
+
+The man was not so angry anymore. He saw that Lily was just a curious child. He said, "Yes, you can hop on something else. But only on things that are safe and fun. Like a trampoline, or a pogo stick, or a hopscotch. Do you know what those are?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, I know. They are normal and fun. Can you show me?"
+
+The man smiled. He said, "Sure, I can show you. But first, let's go back to your mom. She must be worried about you. And let's say sorry to her, too. OK?"
+
+Lily agreed. She said, "OK. Thank you, mister. And sorry again."
+
+They walked back to Lily's mom. Lily hugged her mom and said sorry. Her mom was glad that Lily was safe. She thanked the man for helping her. The man said, "You're welcome. And don't worry, Lily is a good kid. She just likes to hop."
+
+They all laughed. Then the man took Lily to his backyard. He had a trampoline, a pogo stick, and a hopscotch. He taught Lily how to use them. Lily had a lot of fun. She hopped and hopped and hopped. She was happy. She learned a lesson. She never hopped on a motorcycle again.
+Sam and Mia were friends who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a big loop of rope in the yard. They thought it would be fun to jump in and out of the loop, or swing it around like a snake.
+
+"Let me try first!" Sam said. He grabbed the loop and ran with it, making it bigger and bigger. Mia followed him, but she was too slow to catch up.
+
+"Sam, wait for me!" Mia said. "I want to play too!"
+
+But Sam did not listen. He was having too much fun with the loop. He swung it over his head, and then threw it far away. He ran after it, leaving Mia behind.
+
+Mia felt sad and angry. She wanted to play with the loop, but Sam was being mean and lazy. He did not share or care. She started to weep, and sat on the grass.
+
+Soon, Sam came back with the loop. He saw Mia crying, and felt sorry. He realized he had been a bad friend.
+
+"Mia, I'm sorry," he said. "I was not nice to you. Do you want to play with the loop with me?"
+
+Mia looked at him, and wiped her tears. She nodded, and smiled a little.
+
+"Okay," she said. "But you have to take turns, and be fair."
+
+Sam agreed, and gave her the loop. They played with it together, jumping and swinging and laughing. They were friends again, and they had fun with the loop.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the living room. They had many toys and books, but they wanted to do something new. They saw a newspaper on the table. It had many pictures and words that they could not read.
+
+"Let's make a hat with the newspaper," Lily said. She tore a big piece of the paper and put it on her head. She looked funny.
+
+"Good idea," Tom said. He tore another piece and made a hat too. He looked funny too.
+
+They laughed and ran around the room with their hats. They tore more pieces and threw them in the air. They made a big mess with the paper.
+
+Mom came in and saw the mess. She was not happy. She picked up the paper and said, "What are you doing? This is not a toy. This is a newspaper. You should not tear it and make a mess."
+
+She took off their hats and threw them in the trash. She gave them a broom and a dustpan. She said, "You have to clean up this mess. Now."
+
+Tom and Lily felt bad. They said, "Sorry, Mom. We were just playing. We did not know."
+
+They took the broom and the dustpan and started to sweep the paper. It was hard work. They wished they had not played with the newspaper.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was Dad. He came in with a big smile. He had a bag in his hand. He said, "Guess what? I have a surprise for you. I bought you a new toy. It is a ball. You can play with it outside. Do you want to see it?"
+
+Tom and Lily forgot about the mess. They ran to Dad and said, "Yes, yes, yes! Show us the ball!"
+
+Dad opened the bag and took out the ball. It was red and shiny. It looked fun. He said, "Here you go. But be careful. Do not strike it too hard. It might break something."
+
+Tom and Lily took the ball and thanked Dad. They hugged him and Mom. They said, "We love you. You are the best."
+
+They ran outside with the ball. They played with it and had a lot of fun. They did not make a mess with the ball. They learned their lesson.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They had a bow and some arrows that their dad made for them. They wanted to be like the heroes in the stories they heard.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can set the arrow on the bow like this," Tom said, showing his sister how to hold the bow and the arrow. "Then I pull the string and let go. Watch!"
+
+Tom aimed at a big tree and shot the arrow. It flew in the air and hit the tree with a thud.
+
+"Wow, Tom, you are so good!" Lily said, clapping her hands. She was excited to try it too. "Can I have a turn?"
+
+"Sure, Lily, here you go," Tom said, handing her the bow and an arrow. "But be careful, don't point it at anyone or anything that can break."
+
+Lily nodded and set the arrow on the bow. She pulled the string and let go. But she did not aim very well. The arrow missed the tree and went over the fence.
+
+"Oh no, Lily, where did it go?" Tom asked, running after the arrow.
+
+"I don't know, Tom, I'm sorry," Lily said, following him. "Maybe it went to the neighbor's house. Do you think they will be mad?"
+
+Tom and Lily reached the fence and looked over. They saw the arrow stuck in a big pumpkin that was growing in the neighbor's garden. The pumpkin had a face carved on it and a candle inside. It looked like a scary monster.
+
+"Ah, Lily, look, you hit the monster!" Tom said, pointing at the pumpkin.
+
+Lily gasped and hid behind Tom. She was scared of the monster.
+
+"Tom, what do we do?" she asked.
+
+Tom thought for a moment. He had an idea.
+
+"Maybe we can say sorry to the neighbor and give them a gift," he said. "We can pick some flowers from our garden and make a card. Maybe they will not be mad then."
+
+Lily liked the idea. She was not scared anymore.
+
+"OK, Tom, let's do that," she said. "But let's hurry, before the monster wakes up."
+
+Tom and Lily ran back to their garden and picked some flowers. They made a card with crayons and wrote "Sorry for the arrow" on it. Then they went back to the fence and knocked on the neighbor's door. They hoped they would be nice.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the big park. They liked to run, swing, slide and climb. But they also liked to look for mysteries. They liked to find things that were hidden or strange.
+
+One day, they saw a big hole in the ground. It was near the fence, where the park ended and the woods began. They ran to the hole and looked inside. It was dark and deep.
+
+"Wow, what is this?" Tom asked.
+
+"Maybe it is a mystery," Lily said. "Maybe there is something in there."
+
+"Let's find out," Tom said. He took a stick and threw it in the hole. They heard a thud.
+
+"Did you hear that?" Lily asked.
+
+"Maybe it is a treasure," Tom said. "Or a monster."
+
+"Or both," Lily said.
+
+They wanted to see what was in the hole. But they were also scared. They looked around. No one was watching. They whispered to each other.
+
+"Let's go in," Tom said.
+
+"Are you sure?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, it will be fun," Tom said.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Lily said.
+
+They were foolish. They did not know that the hole was dangerous. They did not know that it was a trap. They did not know that someone was waiting for them.
+
+They held hands and jumped in the hole. They screamed. They fell. They landed on something hard and sharp. It hurt. It was not a treasure. It was not a monster. It was a pile of broken glass and metal. It was a dump.
+
+They were bleeding. They were crying. They were stuck. They could not get out. They called for help. But no one heard them. No one came. They were alone. They were sorry. They wished they had not gone in the hole. They wished they had listened to their mom. She had told them to stay away from the fence. She had told them to be safe. She had told them to be smart. But they had not listened. They had been foolish. And now they were in trouble. Big trouble.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They like to run and jump and slide. But today is very hot. The sun is bright and the air is warm. Lily and Ben feel thirsty and tired.
+
+"Can we have some water, please?" Lily asks her mom.
+
+"Of course, sweetie. Here you go." Mom gives them each a bottle of water. "But don't drink it all at once. We need to save some for later."
+
+"Why?" Ben asks.
+
+"Because water is precious. We need it to live and grow and stay healthy. Some people don't have enough water, so we have to be careful and not waste it." Mom explains.
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They sip their water slowly and share it with each other. They feel better and happier.
+
+"Thank you, mom. You are very smart and kind." Lily says.
+
+"Yes, thank you, mom. You are very strong and brave." Ben says.
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them. "You are very welcome, my loves. You are very good and generous. I'm proud of you."
+
+They finish their water and play some more. They have fun and learn new things. They are a happy family.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had a big tree with a swing and a birdhouse. They also had a small patch of dirt where they planted some seeds. They wanted to grow flowers and vegetables.
+
+One day, they saw a post in the dirt. It was tall and thin and had a sign on it. The sign said "Do not touch". Tom and Lily were curious. They wondered what was under the post. They decided to dig around it and see.
+
+They took their shovels and started to dig. They made a big hole in the dirt. They saw something shiny and round. It looked like a ball. Tom reached for it and pulled it out.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a ball!" he said.
+
+But it was not a ball. It was a bomb. It had a timer on it. It was counting down. Tom and Lily did not know what it was. They thought it was a toy.
+
+They heard a loud beep. Then a big boom. The bomb exploded. It made a lot of fire and smoke and noise. It hurt Tom and Lily very badly. It also hurt the tree and the birdhouse and the swing. It made a big mess in the garden.
+
+Mom and Dad heard the boom. They ran outside. They saw the fire and the smoke and the noise. They saw Tom and Lily on the ground. They were not moving. They were not breathing. They were gone.
+
+Mom and Dad were very sad. They were very angry. They were very troubled. They did not know who put the post and the bomb in the dirt. They did not know why someone would do such a terrible thing. They did not know how to live without Tom and Lily. They cried and cried and cried.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a sack with toys and snacks. They share everything.
+
+One day, a big boy comes to the park. He is mean. He sees Tim and Sam's sack. He wants it. He runs to them and grabs the sack. He says, "This is mine now. Go away!"
+
+Tim and Sam are sad. They want their sack back. They say, "No, that is ours. Give it back. You are not nice."
+
+The big boy laughs. He opens the sack. He sees a bag of salt. He thinks it is sugar. He pours some in his mouth. He makes a face. He spits it out. He says, "Yuck! This is salt. This is not good. You tricked me."
+
+Tim and Sam smile. They say, "That is our salt. We use it for art. We make shapes and colors with it. You can have it if you want. But you have to give us our sack back."
+
+The big boy is angry. He does not want the salt. He throws the bag on the ground. He gives the sack back to Tim and Sam. He says, "Fine. Take your sack. But I don't want to play with you. You are weird."
+
+Tim and Sam are happy. They have their sack back. They pick up the bag of salt. They say, "Thank you. We are not weird. We are creative. You can play with us if you want. But you have to be nice."
+
+The big boy thinks. He feels sorry. He says, "I'm sorry. I was mean. Can I play with you? Can I try your art?"
+
+Tim and Sam nod. They say, "Yes, you can. Come on. We will show you how. It is fun."
+
+The big boy smiles. He says, "Okay. Thank you. You are nice."
+
+They all go to a bench. They take out some paper and glue. They sprinkle some salt on the paper. They use water and food coloring to make different colors. They make beautiful pictures. They have fun. They are friends.
+Ben likes to play with his computer. He can watch funny videos, draw pictures and learn new things. He has a computer in his room, but he has to share it with his sister, Lily. Lily is older than Ben and she likes to do homework and chat with her friends on the computer.
+
+One day, Ben wants to play with his computer, but Lily is using it. He asks her, "Can I play with the computer, please?"
+
+Lily says, "No, Ben, I have to finish my homework. You can play later."
+
+Ben is sad and angry. He thinks Lily is mean and selfish. He decides to hide the computer when she is not looking. He waits until she goes to the bathroom and then he takes the computer and puts it under his bed. He thinks, "Now Lily can't use the computer. I can play with it whenever I want."
+
+But Ben forgets one thing. He forgets to plug the computer back in. The computer runs out of power and turns off. Ben tries to turn it on, but nothing happens. He is confused and scared. He thinks he broke the computer. He thinks Lily will be mad at him. He thinks his mom and dad will be mad at him too. He starts to cry.
+
+Lily comes back from the bathroom and sees that the computer is gone. She is surprised and angry. She thinks Ben took the computer. She goes to his room and sees him crying under his bed. She asks him, "Ben, did you take the computer?"
+
+Ben nods and says, "Yes, I did. I'm sorry, Lily. I wanted to play with it, but I forgot to plug it in. Now it won't turn on. I think I broke it."
+
+Lily is not happy, but she is not mean. She sees that Ben is fearful and sorry. She says, "Ben, you shouldn't take things that are not yours. That's not nice. But I forgive you. You didn't break the computer. It just needs power. Let's plug it in and see if it works."
+
+Ben and Lily plug the computer in and wait for a few minutes. The computer turns on and works fine. Ben is relieved and happy. He says, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister. Can I play with the computer, please?"
+
+Lily smiles and says, "Yes, Ben, you can play with the computer for a little while. But next time, ask me first, okay?"
+
+Ben nods and says, "Okay, Lily. I will ask you first. And I will share the computer with you."
+
+Ben and Lily hug and play with the computer together. They watch funny videos, draw pictures and learn new things. They are happy and they don't forget to be nice to each other.
+Lily was a very intelligent dog. She knew how to sit, stay, roll over and fetch. She also loved sausages. They were her favorite food in the whole world.
+
+One day, Lily smelled something delicious in the air. She followed her nose and saw a man with a big bag of sausages. He was walking to his car. Lily wanted to have a sausage, so she followed the man quietly. She hoped he would give her one.
+
+But the man did not see Lily. He put the bag of sausages in the trunk of his car and closed it. Then he got in the car and drove away. Lily was sad and hungry. She barked and ran after the car, but it was too fast.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" a voice said. Lily turned and saw a boy with a bike. He had a friendly smile and a sandwich in his hand. "Are you lost? Do you need help?"
+
+Lily wagged her tail and licked the boy's face. She liked him. He smelled nice and he had food. Maybe he would share his sandwich with her.
+
+"Wow, you're a smart dog. You can understand me. Do you want some of my sandwich? It has cheese and ham. I don't have any sausages, but I think you'll like it." the boy said. He broke off a piece of his sandwich and gave it to Lily. She ate it happily. It was not as good as a sausage, but it was still tasty.
+
+"Thank you. You're very kind." Lily said in her own way. She nuzzled the boy's hand and looked at him with gratitude.
+
+"You're welcome. You're very cute. What's your name?" the boy asked.
+
+"Lily." Lily said.
+
+"Lily. That's a pretty name. I'm Tom. Do you want to be my friend?" Tom asked.
+
+"Yes. I want to be your friend." Lily said.
+
+"Great. Then come with me. I'll take you home and we can play. Maybe we can find some sausages later." Tom said.
+
+Lily barked and followed Tom. She was happy. She had found a new friend and a new home. She forgot about the man and his bag of sausages. She had something better. She had love.
+Lila and Tom were twins who liked to explore. One day, they found a big hill near their house. They wanted to see what was on the other side. They climbed and climbed until they reached the top. They saw a beautiful landscape with many colors and shapes. They saw trees, flowers, birds, and a lake.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Tom said, pointing at the lake. "It's so shiny and blue. Let's go there!"
+
+"OK, but be careful. It's far and we don't know the way," Lila said, following her brother.
+
+They ran down the hill, laughing and singing. They felt happy and free. They did not see the dark clouds that were gathering in the sky. They did not hear the thunder that was rumbling in the distance.
+
+Soon, they reached the lake. They dipped their toes in the water and splashed each other. They saw some fish and frogs and tried to catch them. They had fun and forgot about the time.
+
+But then, the wind started to blow. The water became choppy and cold. The sky turned gray and angry. The thunder became louder and louder. The rain started to fall.
+
+"Uh-oh, we have to go back. It's a storm!" Lila said, scared.
+
+"Come on, let's run!" Tom said, grabbing her hand.
+
+They ran as fast as they could, but they were wet and tired. They could not see the hill or their house. They were lost and alone.
+
+They found a big rock and hid under it. They hugged each other and shivered. They wished they were home with their mom and dad.
+
+"Tom, I'm scared. What if we can't find our way back?" Lila said, crying.
+
+"Don't worry, Lila. I'm here with you. I'll comfort you. We'll be OK. The storm will pass and someone will find us. We just have to be brave and wait," Tom said, trying to be strong.
+
+He kissed her cheek and stroked her hair. He sang a song that their mom used to sing to them when they were restless. He made her smile and feel safe.
+
+They stayed under the rock until the storm was over. Then, they heard a familiar voice calling their names.
+
+"Lila! Tom! Where are you?"
+
+It was their dad. He had been looking for them. He saw them under the rock and ran to them. He hugged them and kissed them. He was so happy and relieved.
+
+"I'm so glad you're OK. I was so worried. How did you get here?" he asked.
+
+"We wanted to see the lake. It was so pretty. But then the storm came and we got lost. We were scared. But Tom comforted me. He was brave and kind," Lila said.
+
+"Tom, you're a good brother. You took care of Lila. I'm proud of you. But you shouldn't have gone so far without telling me. It was dangerous. You could have been hurt. You have to be careful and listen to me," he said.
+
+"I'm sorry, dad. We won't do it again. We learned our lesson. Can we go home now?" Tom said.
+
+"Yes, let's go home. Your mom is waiting for you. She made some soup and cookies for you. You must be hungry and cold. Come on, I'll carry you," he said.
+
+He lifted them up and carried them to his car. He drove them home and told them stories. They saw the sun shining and the rainbow in the sky. They felt warm and cozy. They were happy to be home. They loved their dad. He loved them. They were a family.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big dog with a long tail and a wet nose. The dog is brown and white and has a collar. Anna likes dogs, but Ben is afraid of them.
+
+"Look, Ben, a dog!" Anna says. "Let's go and say hello!"
+
+"No, Anna, no!" Ben says. "The dog might bite us or bark at us. Let's stay away!"
+
+Anna shakes her head. "The dog is harmless, Ben. He is not angry or mean. He is just curious and friendly. See, he is wagging his tail. That means he is happy. Come on, don't be scared!"
+
+Anna walks towards the dog and holds out her hand. The dog sniffs her hand and licks it. Anna giggles and pets the dog. The dog wags his tail more and makes a soft sound.
+
+"See, Ben, he is nice!" Anna says. "He likes me. He likes you too. Come and pet him. He won't hurt you."
+
+Ben hesitates, but he sees that Anna and the dog are having fun. He decides to be brave and joins them. He touches the dog's fur and feels how soft and warm it is. The dog licks his hand too and looks at him with big eyes.
+
+"Hello, dog," Ben says. "You are harmless. You are a good dog. I like you."
+
+The dog barks happily and nudges Ben with his nose. Ben smiles and hugs the dog. Anna and Ben play with the dog until his owner comes and calls him. They say goodbye to the dog and thank him for being their friend. They go back to their parents and tell them about their adventure. They are proud of themselves for being brave and kind.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, Sara has a new dress. It is pink and has flowers. Sara is happy. She wants to show Ben her new dress.
+
+"Look, Ben, look!" Sara says. "I have a new dress. Do you like it?"
+
+Ben looks at Sara's dress. He likes it too. It is pretty and colorful. He smiles and says, "Yes, Sara, I like your new dress. It is very nice. Can I touch it?"
+
+Sara nods and says, "Yes, you can touch it. But be careful. It is new and soft."
+
+Ben touches Sara's dress gently. He feels the fabric and the flowers. He says, "It is soft and smooth. And the flowers are cute. How did you get it?"
+
+Sara says, "My mom gave it to me. She said it is a special dress. She said I can wear it when I dance. Do you want to dance with me?"
+
+Ben says, "Yes, I want to dance with you. Dancing is fun. How do we dance?"
+
+Sara says, "We can dance however we want. We can jump and spin and clap and sing. Come on, let's dance!"
+
+Sara and Ben start to dance. They jump and spin and clap and sing. They are happy and silly. They laugh and have fun.
+
+But then, Sara sees something shiny on the table. It is a pair of scissors. Sara likes shiny things. She stops dancing and runs to the table. She grabs the scissors and says, "Look, Ben, look! I found scissors. They are shiny and sharp. I want to play with them."
+
+Ben sees Sara with the scissors. He is scared. He knows scissors are not for playing. He knows scissors can cut and hurt. He says, "No, Sara, no! Put down the scissors. They are not for playing. They are for cutting. They can cut your dress. They can cut your hair. They can cut your fingers. They are dangerous. Give them to me."
+
+Sara does not listen to Ben. She likes the scissors. She thinks they are fun. She says, "No, Ben, no! I want to play with the scissors. They are not dangerous. They are shiny and sharp. I want to cut something. I want to cut my dress. I want to cut the flowers. I want to make them more pretty."
+
+Sara opens the scissors and brings them to her dress. She tries to cut the flowers. Ben is shocked. He runs to Sara and tries to stop her. He says, "No, Sara, no! Don't cut your dress. Don't cut the flowers. Your dress is new and pretty. Your mom gave it to you. She will be sad if you cut it. I will be sad too. Please, Sara, please. Put down the scissors. Let's dance again."
+
+Sara and Ben struggle with the scissors. They pull and push. They are not happy and silly. They are angry and scared. They yell and cry.
+
+Then, they hear a voice. It is Sara's mom. She comes into the room. She sees Sara and Ben with the scissors. She sees Sara's dress with a hole. She is shocked and angry. She says, "Sara, Ben, what are you doing? Why do you have scissors? Why did you cut Sara's dress? This is not okay. This is very bad. Give me the scissors. Now!"
+
+Sara and Ben are ashamed. They know they did something wrong. They give the scissors to Sara's mom. They say, "We are sorry, mom. We are sorry, Sara. We are sorry, Ben. We were playing. We were dancing. We saw the scissors. We wanted to play with them. We did not mean to cut the dress. We did not know it was bad. Please, don't be mad. Please, forgive us."
+
+Sara's mom is still angry. But she is also sad. She loves Sara and Ben. She knows they are young and curious. She knows they need to learn and grow. She says, "I am mad, Sara. I am mad, Ben. You did something very bad. You should not play with scissors. You should not cut things that are not yours. You should listen to each other. You should be careful and respectful. You should be sorry. But I also love you, Sara. I also love you, Ben. You are my children. You are my friends. You make mistakes. But you can also learn. You can also do better. You can also say sorry. You can also hug and kiss. You can also dance and laugh. You can also be happy and silly. Come here, Sara. Come here, Ben. Let me
+Tim and Jen were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had a lot of toys, but their favorite was a big red truck. They liked to drive the truck around the room and make loud noises.
+
+One day, they saw a new toy in the store. It was a shiny blue train that could move by itself. They wanted the train very much, but it was too expensive. They asked their mom if they could have it, but she said no. She said they had to save their money and pay for it themselves.
+
+Tim and Jen decided to work hard and earn some money. They helped their mom with chores, they sold some of their old toys, and they found some pennies on the street. They put all their money in a jar and counted it every day. They needed ten pennies to buy the train.
+
+After a week, they had enough money. They were very happy and excited. They ran to the store with their jar and their mom. They found the train on the shelf and gave the jar to the clerk. The clerk smiled and said, "You have exactly ten pennies. Good job, kids. You can have the train."
+
+Tim and Jen thanked the clerk and took the train. They hugged each other and their mom. They could not wait to play with their new toy. They were very careful and gentle with it. They shared it and took turns. They drove the train around the room and made happy noises. They loved their train very much. They learned that if they worked hard and saved their money, they could pay for what they wanted. They were very proud of themselves.
+Tommy liked to organize his toys. He had a box for cars, a box for animals, and a box for blocks. He liked to make rows and piles and patterns with his toys. He was very good at organizing.
+
+One day, Tommy went to class with his mom. She was a teacher and she had to work. Tommy had to stay in a corner with some books and crayons. He did not like the class. It was too loud and too busy. He wanted to organize something.
+
+He saw a big shelf with many things on it. There were books and papers and pens and scissors and glue and stickers and more. Tommy thought it was a mess. He wanted to make it neat. He climbed on a chair and reached for the shelf. He started to take things off and put them on the floor.
+
+"Tommy, what are you doing?" his mom asked. She saw him making a big pile of stuff. She was angry. "Stop that right now! You are making a mess and you could hurt yourself!"
+
+But Tommy did not listen. He wanted to finish organizing. He grabbed a big jar of glitter and tried to put it on the floor. But the jar was too heavy and it slipped from his hand. It fell on his head and broke. Glitter went everywhere. It was shiny and sparkly and sticky. Tommy felt dizzy. He fell off the chair and hit his head on the floor. He started to cry.
+
+His mom ran to him and hugged him. She was scared. She saw blood and glitter on his head. She called for help. She took him to the hospital. He had to get stitches and a bandage. He was in pain and he was sorry. He learned a hard lesson. He should not organize things that are not his. He should listen to his mom. He should be careful. He did not like the class. He did not like the glitter. He did not like the hospital. He had a bad day.
+Sam was a little boy who liked to play with his toys. He had many cars, trains, and planes that he could make zoom and beep. He was happy when he played alone in his room.
+
+One day, his mom said, "Sam, we are going to the park. You can bring one toy with you." Sam thought for a moment. He wanted to bring all his toys, but he knew he could not. He picked his favorite car, a red one that was shiny and fast. He put it in his pocket and went with his mom.
+
+At the park, Sam saw a group of kids playing with a ball. They looked like they were having fun. Sam wanted to join them, but he was shy. He sat on a bench and watched them. He took out his car and made it zoom on the ground.
+
+One of the kids saw Sam and his car. He ran over to him and said, "Hey, can I see your car? It looks cool." Sam nodded and handed him his car. The kid took it and smiled. He said, "Thanks, I like it. Can I keep it?" Sam shook his head and said, "No, it is mine. Please give it back." The kid said, "No, I want it. It is mine now." He ran away with the car.
+
+Sam felt sad and angry. He wanted his car back. He ran after the kid and shouted, "Stop, that is my car. Give it back." The other kids saw them and laughed. They said, "Look at Sam, he is crying. He is a baby. He has a baby car." Sam felt more sad and angry. He did not like the kids. He did not like the park. He wanted to go home.
+
+He ran to his mom and hugged her. He told her what happened. His mom said, "I am sorry, Sam. That was not nice of the kid. He should not take your car. He should say sorry. Your car is not a baby car. It is a special car. It is your favorite car. You are not a baby. You are a big boy. You are my big boy." She kissed him and hugged him. She said, "Let's go home. Maybe we can find another car for you. A car that is just as good as your red car. A car that you will love." Sam nodded and smiled. He felt better. He said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. You are the best mom." They went home together. Sam was happy again.
+Tom and Anna like to play in the park. They see many birds in the trees and on the grass. They see a big gray bird with a black beak. It is a raven.
+
+"Look, Anna, a raven!" Tom says. "It is so big and gray!"
+
+"Yes, Tom, it is a raven," Anna says. "But what does it do?"
+
+The raven hops on the grass and picks up a shiny thing. It is a ring. The raven flies away with the ring in its beak.
+
+"Hey, raven, give back the ring!" Tom shouts. "That is not yours!"
+
+The raven does not listen. It caws and flies to a high tree. It puts the ring in its nest.
+
+"Tom, the raven is naughty," Anna says. "It took the ring from someone."
+
+"Maybe we can get the ring back," Tom says. "We can climb the tree and get the nest."
+
+Tom and Anna try to climb the tree. But the tree is too high and the branches are too thin. They cannot reach the nest.
+
+The raven sees them and caws again. It flaps its wings and shakes its head.
+
+"Go away, go away!" the raven says. "This is my ring, my shiny thing!"
+
+Tom and Anna are sad and angry. They cannot get the ring back. They go back to the ground and look for another game to play.
+
+The raven is happy. It has a shiny thing in its nest. It does not care about Tom and Anna. It only cares about itself.
+Lily and Tom were on a big plane with Mom and Dad. They were going to see a new place with hot rocks and fire. Mom said it was a volcano. Lily and Tom wanted to see the volcano very much.
+
+The plane landed and they got in a car. The car drove for a long time on a bumpy road. Lily and Tom looked out the window and saw green trees and blue water. They also saw a big mountain with smoke coming out of the top. Mom said that was the volcano.
+
+"Can we go closer, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Maybe later, sweetie. First we have to go to our hotel and rest," Mom said.
+
+"But I want to see the fire!" Tom said.
+
+"Me too!" Lily said.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Don't worry, we will see the fire soon. The volcano is very far away, but we have a special tool to see it better. It's called a telescope. You can gaze at the volcano with it and see the fire and the rocks."
+
+"What's gaze?" Lily asked.
+
+"Gaze means to look at something for a long time, with your eyes wide open," Mom explained.
+
+"Like this?" Tom said, and opened his eyes very big.
+
+"Yes, like that," Mom said, and laughed.
+
+Lily and Tom giggled and gazed at the volcano. They hoped to see the fire soon. They were very excited.
+Ben and Mia were playing in the garden. They wanted to build a big tower with their blocks. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes. They stacked them up high and proud.
+
+"Look at our tower!" Ben said. "It is the best tower ever!"
+
+Mia nodded. "Yes, it is very nice. Let's go get some fruit to eat. I am hungry."
+
+They ran to the kitchen and found a bowl of fruit on the table. There were apples, bananas, oranges and grapes. They each took one and went back to the garden.
+
+But when they got there, they saw something strange. Their tower was gone! Instead, there was a big pile of blocks on the ground. And on top of the pile, there was a monkey. The monkey was holding an orange and smiling.
+
+"Hey, that's our fruit!" Ben shouted. "And our tower! What did you do, monkey?"
+
+The monkey looked at them and made a funny noise. He threw the orange at them and grabbed a banana. He peeled it and ate it.
+
+Mia was confused. "Why is there a monkey in our garden? Where did he come from?"
+
+Ben was angry. "I don't know, but he is very rude. He ruined our tower and took our fruit. We have to make him go away."
+
+They picked up some blocks and threw them at the monkey. The monkey dodged them and threw some back. They had a big fight with the monkey.
+
+But then, they heard a voice. "Monkey, monkey, where are you?" It was a man in a uniform. He had a net and a badge. He was looking for the monkey.
+
+The monkey saw the man and got scared. He dropped the banana and ran away. He jumped over the fence and disappeared.
+
+The man saw Ben and Mia and their pile of blocks. He apologized to them. "I'm sorry, kids. That monkey escaped from the zoo. He is very naughty and likes to play tricks. He must have seen your tower and your fruit and wanted to have some fun. I hope he didn't hurt you or your things."
+
+Ben and Mia shook their heads. They were not hurt, but they were still upset. They told the man what the monkey did.
+
+The man felt sorry for them. He gave them some more fruit from his bag. He also helped them rebuild their tower. He made it even bigger and better than before.
+
+Ben and Mia smiled. They thanked the man and shared their fruit with him. They were happy again.
+
+They learned that monkeys are not good guests. They also learned that sometimes, things can go wrong, but they can be fixed with some help and kindness.
+Lily was a very obedient girl. She always listened to her mom and dad and did what they said. She liked to help them with chores and play with her toys. She had a lot of fun with her friends at school and learned new things every day.
+
+One day, Lily and her mom went to the park. They saw a big slide, a swing, a sandbox and a merry-go-round. Lily wanted to try them all. She asked her mom if she could go on the slide first. Her mom said yes, but she had to be careful and hold on tight.
+
+Lily climbed up the ladder and sat on the slide. She looked down and saw how high it was. She felt a little scared, but she wanted to be brave. She let go of the ladder and slid down fast. She felt the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She was having so much fun.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Lily did not see a boy who was standing at the end of the slide. She bumped into him and they both fell to the ground. Lily hurt her shoulder and the boy hurt his knee. They both cried and said ouch.
+
+Their moms ran to them and hugged them. They checked their injuries and said they were not serious. They gave them kisses and band-aids. They told them to say sorry to each other and be more careful next time.
+
+Lily and the boy looked at each other and said sorry. They felt better and smiled. They decided to be friends and play together. They went to the swing and pushed each other. They had fun again and forgot about their pain. They learned to share and be nice. They were obedient and happy.
+Tom is a dog. He likes to play with his ball. He likes to run and jump and bark. He lives with a woman. She is nice. She gives him food and water and hugs. She calls him Tom.
+
+One day, Tom and the woman go to the park. The park has grass and trees and flowers. Tom sees other dogs. He wants to play with them. He runs to them with his ball. He barks hello.
+
+One dog is big and black. He does not want to play. He growls at Tom. He tries to take his ball. Tom is scared. He runs back to the woman. He drops his ball.
+
+The woman sees Tom. She sees the big dog. She is not happy. She says to the big dog, "Go away! Leave Tom alone! He is a good dog. You are a bad dog." She picks up Tom's ball. She throws it far away. The big dog runs after it.
+
+The woman hugs Tom. She says to him, "Are you okay, Tom? You are brave. I love you." She gives him a treat. She says, "Let's go home, Tom. We can play with your ball there." She puts him on a leash. They walk home.
+
+Tom is happy. He wags his tail. He licks the woman's face. He shakes his fur. He thinks, "The woman is nice. She is my friend. I love her."
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park with their mom. They liked to run and jump and slide on the grass. They saw a big pond with ducks and fish. Ben wanted to feed the ducks, so he took some bread from his mom's bag. Lily wanted to see the fish, so she walked closer to the water.
+
+"Be careful, Lily!" mom said. "The pond is deep and wet. You don't want to fall in and get your clothes dirty."
+
+But Lily did not listen. She leaned over the edge of the pond and tried to touch a fish. She lost her balance and fell into the water with a splash.
+
+Mom and Ben ran to the pond and saw Lily in the water. Lily was scared and cold. She cried and screamed. Mom and Ben panicked. They did not know how to help Lily.
+
+"Help! Help!" mom shouted. "Someone help my daughter!"
+
+A man who was walking his dog heard mom's shout. He ran to the pond and saw Lily in the water. He was brave and strong. He jumped into the pond and swam to Lily. He lifted her out of the water and carried her to the shore.
+
+"Thank you, thank you!" mom said. "You saved my daughter!"
+
+The man smiled and said, "You're welcome. I'm glad she's okay."
+
+Mom hugged Lily and wrapped her in a towel. She checked if Lily was hurt. Lily was not hurt, but she was wet and shivering. Mom said, "Lily, you were very naughty. You did not listen to me. You could have drowned in the pond. You scared me and Ben very much."
+
+Lily said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to see the fish. I did not mean to fall in. I was very scared too."
+
+Mom said, "I know, Lily. I love you. But you have to be careful and obey me. The pond is deep and dangerous. You have to stay away from it."
+
+Lily said, "I love you too, mom. I will listen to you. I will not go near the pond again."
+
+Mom said, "That's good, Lily. Now let's go home and change your clothes. You need to get warm and dry."
+
+Ben said, "Can I keep the bread for the ducks?"
+
+Mom said, "Yes, Ben. You can feed the ducks another day. But only from the shore."
+
+Ben said, "Okay, mom. I'm sorry for Lily. I'm glad she's okay."
+
+Mom said, "Me too, Ben. Me too."
+Here is one possible story, but there are many other ways to write it.
+
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big maze made of hay in the farm next to their house. They wanted to go inside and explore, but their mom said no. She said it was not safe and they could get lost.
+
+But Lily and Max were curious and did not listen. They waited until their mom was busy and ran to the maze. They found an open spot and crawled in. They thought it would be fun to find the way out.
+
+They walked and walked, but they only saw more hay and more paths. They did not see any signs or clues. They started to feel scared and tired. They wished they had listened to their mom.
+
+"Max, I don't like this maze. It is too big and too hard. Can we go back?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. I don't remember where we came from. Maybe we should shout for help," Max said.
+
+They shouted and shouted, but no one heard them. They felt alone and sad. They hugged each other and hoped someone would find them.
+
+Then, they heard a loud bark. It was their dog, Spot. He had followed them to the maze and smelled them. He ran to them and licked their faces. He was happy to see them.
+
+"Spot, you found us! You are a good dog. Can you show us the way out?" Lily said.
+
+Spot wagged his tail and barked. He led them to the open spot where they had entered. He was smart and remembered the way.
+
+They crawled out of the maze and saw their mom waiting for them. She was angry and worried. She scolded them for disobeying her and going to the maze. She said they could have been hurt or lost. She said they were lucky that Spot was there to save them.
+
+Lily and Max felt sorry and ashamed. They apologized to their mom and hugged her. They thanked Spot for being their hero. They learned their lesson and never went to the maze again. They realized it was not fun, but dangerous. They decided to play in their own yard, where it was safe and cozy.
+Anna and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. Anna has a doll and Ben has a car. They are having fun making noises and moving their toys around.
+
+"Look, Anna, my car can go fast!" Ben says, pushing his car on the floor.
+
+"Wow, Ben, your car is very lively!" Anna says, watching his car zoom by. "My doll can dance and sing. Do you want to see?"
+
+"Yes, please, Anna. Show me your doll!" Ben says, parking his car next to Anna.
+
+Anna picks up her doll and presses a button on its back. The doll starts to dance and sing a song. Anna and Ben clap and laugh.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a squeak from behind the sofa. They turn around and see a small mouse running out of a hole in the wall. The mouse has a piece of cheese in its mouth. It looks scared and runs towards the door.
+
+"Look, Anna, a mouse!" Ben says, pointing at the mouse.
+
+"A mouse, a mouse!" Anna says, jumping up. "It has cheese!"
+
+The mouse sees Anna and Ben and stops. It drops the cheese and tries to run back to the hole. But it is too late. Ben grabs his car and runs after the mouse. He tries to catch the mouse with his car.
+
+"Come here, mouse!" Ben says, chasing the mouse. "I want to attach you to my car!"
+
+The mouse dodges Ben's car and runs under the table. It looks for a way to escape. It sees the doll on the floor. It thinks the doll is a friend. It runs towards the doll and tries to hide behind it.
+
+"Help me, doll!" the mouse says, snuggling up to the doll.
+
+But the doll is not a friend. The doll is still dancing and singing. It does not hear the mouse. It does not see the mouse. It does not care about the mouse.
+
+The mouse is confused and scared. It does not like the doll's noise and movement. It wants to get away from the doll.
+
+"Stop, doll, stop!" the mouse says, pushing the doll away.
+
+But the doll does not stop. The doll keeps dancing and singing. The doll bumps into the mouse and knocks it over. The mouse falls on the floor. It is stunned and dizzy.
+
+Ben sees the mouse on the floor. He runs towards the mouse with his car. He reaches the mouse and puts his car on top of it. He presses a button on his car. The car makes a click sound and attaches the mouse to its bottom.
+
+"Ha, ha, I got you, mouse!" Ben says, lifting his car with the mouse attached. "You are my new toy!"
+
+Anna sees Ben with his car and the mouse. She runs towards Ben with her doll. She wants to see the mouse.
+
+"Let me see, Ben, let me see!" Anna says, reaching for his car.
+
+"No, Anna, it is my mouse!" Ben says, holding his car away from her. "You have your doll!"
+
+"But I want to see the mouse, Ben!" Anna says, trying to grab his car. "It is so cute!"
+
+They start to fight over the car and the mouse. They pull and tug and shout. They do not notice the mouse is still alive. The mouse is scared and angry. It does not like being attached to the car. It does not like being fought over. It wants to be free.
+
+The mouse bites the car with its sharp teeth. It makes a hole in the car. It frees itself from the car. It jumps off the car and runs away.
+
+"Ouch, ouch, ouch!" Ben says, feeling the mouse bite his car. "The mouse bit my car!"
+
+"Look, look, look!" Anna says, seeing the mouse run away. "The mouse is free!"
+
+They watch the mouse run back to the hole in the wall. They watch the mouse disappear into the hole. They watch the mouse take the cheese with it.
+
+They are silent for a moment. They look at each other. They look at their toys. They feel sorry for the mouse. They feel sorry for themselves.
+
+"Ben, I am sorry I fought with you," Anna says, hugging her doll.
+
+"Anna, I am sorry I chased the mouse," Ben says, holding his car.
+
+They hug each other and make up. They decide to play with their toys together. They decide to leave the mouse alone. They decide to be nice to each other and to the mouse. They are happy again.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. Today, they see a big slide. They want to go on the slide.
+
+"Me first!" Lila says. She runs to the slide. She climbs up the ladder. She sits on the slide. She slides down. She laughs. "That was fun!"
+
+"Me too!" Ben says. He runs to the slide. He climbs up the ladder. He sits on the slide. He slides down. He smiles. "That was fun too!"
+
+They do it again and again. They have a lot of fun. They are happy.
+
+But then, a cold wind blows. The slide becomes icy. It is slippery. Lila and Ben do not know. They run to the slide. They climb up the ladder. They sit on the slide.
+
+But they slide too fast. They cannot stop. They bump into each other. They fall off the slide. They land on the ground. They hurt. They cry.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Lila says. She rubs her head. She is angry. She thinks Ben pushed her. She slaps Ben. "You pushed me!"
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Ben says. He rubs his cheek. He is angry. He thinks Lila hit him. He slaps Lila. "You hit me!"
+
+They slap each other. They are not friends anymore. They are sad.
+
+A lady sees them. She is a teacher. She works at the park. She hears them cry. She comes to them. She stops them.
+
+"Stop! Stop! Stop!" she says. She holds their hands. She looks at them. She is kind. "Why are you slapping each other?"
+
+They tell her. They blame each other. They are still angry.
+
+She shakes her head. She is not happy. She tells them. "That is not nice. That is not how friends play. You should not slap each other. You should say sorry. You should hug each other. You should be friends again."
+
+They listen to her. They think. They feel sorry. They say sorry. They hug each other. They are friends again.
+
+They thank the lady. She smiles. She is happy. She tells them. "That is good. That is how friends play. You are good friends. You are a success."
+
+They smile. They are happy. They are a success. They go back to the slide. They slide together. They are careful. They have fun. They laugh.
+Tom and Jen were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. One day, they saw a big, fat elephant in the park. The elephant had a long trunk and big ears. Tom and Jen wanted to touch the elephant.
+
+"Let's go and say hello to the elephant," Tom said.
+
+"OK, but be careful. He might be angry or scared," Jen said.
+
+They walked slowly to the elephant. The elephant saw them and made a loud noise. He waved his trunk in the air.
+
+"Hello, elephant. We are Tom and Jen. We want to be your friends," Tom said.
+
+The elephant looked at them with his small eyes. He seemed curious and friendly. He lowered his trunk and let Tom and Jen touch it. It felt rough and wet.
+
+"Wow, your trunk is so cool. Can you do tricks with it?" Jen asked.
+
+The elephant nodded. He lifted his trunk and sprayed water from his mouth. Tom and Jen laughed and clapped.
+
+"Can you lift us with your trunk?" Tom asked.
+
+The elephant nodded again. He wrapped his trunk around Tom and lifted him up. Tom felt excited and scared. He saw the park from high up.
+
+"Me too, me too!" Jen said.
+
+The elephant put Tom down and lifted Jen up. Jen felt happy and brave. She saw the birds and the clouds.
+
+"Thank you, elephant. You are so strong and smart," Jen said.
+
+The elephant smiled and put Jen down. He rubbed his trunk against Tom and Jen. He liked them too.
+
+They played with the elephant for a while. Then they heard a voice.
+
+"Hey, kids. It's time to go home. The park is closing soon," the voice said.
+
+It was the zookeeper. He came to take the elephant back to the zoo.
+
+"Bye, elephant. We had fun with you. Can we see you again?" Tom asked.
+
+"Of course. You can come to the zoo anytime. The elephant likes you. He told me so," the zookeeper said.
+
+Tom and Jen hugged the elephant. They said goodbye and followed the zookeeper.
+
+They learned that the elephant was a kind and gentle animal. They also learned to be respectful and careful with animals. They were happy and grateful for their new friend.
+Lily and Anna are sisters. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a large balloon in the sky. It is red and shiny. It rises higher and higher.
+
+"Look, Anna, a balloon!" Lily says.
+
+"I see it, Lily. It is so big and pretty!" Anna says.
+
+They run to the balloon. They want to touch it. But the balloon is too high. They cannot reach it.
+
+"Can we have the balloon, please?" Lily asks a man. The man has a rope. The rope is tied to the balloon.
+
+"Sorry, girls, this is my balloon. I am going to fly with it," the man says.
+
+"Fly? How can you fly with a balloon?" Anna asks.
+
+"It is a special balloon. It has a basket. I can sit in the basket and go up in the air," the man says.
+
+He shows them the basket. It is small and brown. It has some bags and a fire.
+
+"Wow, that is cool!" Lily says.
+
+"Can we go with you?" Anna asks.
+
+"Sorry, girls, there is not enough room for you. Maybe another time," the man says.

+Lily and Sam were playing soccer in the park. They liked to kick the ball and run after it. They had a lot of fun.
+
+"Look, Lily, there is a big trophy over there!" Sam said, pointing to a shiny cup on a table. "Do you think we can win it?"
+
+Lily ran to the table and looked at the trophy. It had a star on top and a ribbon around it. It was very pretty. "Maybe we can, Sam. Let's ask the man who has it."
+
+They went to the man who was sitting next to the trophy. He had a funny hat and a big smile. "Hello, kids. Do you like my trophy?" he asked.
+
+"Yes, we do. It is very nice. Can we win it?" Lily asked.
+
+The man laughed. "Well, you can try, but you have to play a game with me first. Do you want to play?"
+
+Lily and Sam nodded. They liked games.
+
+"Okay, then. The game is called change. I will say a word, and you have to say another word that is different but starts with the same sound. For example, if I say cat, you can say car. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Sam nodded again. They thought it was easy.
+
+"Good. Let's start. I say dog. You say..."
+
+"Dot!" Lily said.
+
+"Very good. I say sun. You say..."
+
+"Son!" Sam said.
+
+"Excellent. I say fish. You say..."
+
+"Fist!" Lily said.
+
+"Wow, you are very smart. I say hat. You say..."
+
+"Hair!" Sam said.
+
+"Amazing. You are very fast. I say ball. You say..."
+
+"Bad!" Lily said.
+
+"Oops, that is not right. Bad does not start with the same sound as ball. You have to say a word that starts with b. Try again."
+
+Lily thought hard. She wanted to win the trophy. She looked around and saw a big tree. She had an idea.
+
+"Bark!" she said.
+
+"Correct! You did it! You won the game and the trophy! Congratulations!" the man said, clapping his hands.

+He gave the trophy to Lily and Sam. They were very happy. They hugged the trophy and thanked the man.
+
+They ran back to the field and showed the trophy to their friends. They were very proud. They had a lot of fun.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they find a big box. They want to make a car with the box.
+
+"Let's prepare the car," Lila says. "We need wheels and a steering wheel."
+
+"I have an idea," Ben says. "We can use these lids for wheels. And this string for a steering wheel."
+
+They cut holes in the box and put the lids in. They tie the string to the front of the box. They draw windows and doors on the box with crayons.
+
+"Wow, our car is powerful," Lila says. "It can go fast and far."
+
+"Let's go for a ride," Ben says. "We can pretend we are going to the park."
+
+They sit in the box and hold the string. They make noises like a car. They have fun. They are happy.
+Lily was a dog who liked to run and play in the park. She had a lot of fur that was soft and brown. She also had a friend who was very small and lived in her fur. His name was Fred and he was a flea.
+
+One day, Lily and Fred were in the park when they saw a big ball that was red. Lily wanted to play with the ball, so she ran towards it and tried to pick it up with her mouth. But the ball was too big and heavy for her, and she could not lift it.
+
+"Help me, Fred!" Lily barked. "The ball is too big for me!"
+
+Fred heard Lily and jumped out of her fur. He saw the red ball and had an idea. He ran to the ball and bit it with his tiny teeth. The ball popped and made a loud noise. Air came out of the ball and it became smaller and smaller.
+
+"Wow, Fred, you did it!" Lily said. "You made the ball smaller for me!"
+
+Fred smiled and said, "You're welcome, Lily. I'm happy to help you. You are my friend and I like to play with you."
+
+Lily and Fred hugged and licked each other. Then they picked up the small ball and ran to find a new game. They had a lot of fun in the park. They were a dog and a flea who were very good friends.
+Ben was a little boy who liked to play with his trumpet. He had a big trumpet that made loud sounds. He liked to blow it and make music. He also had a little trumpet that was red and shiny. He liked to carry it with him everywhere.
+
+One day, he went to the park with his mom and his little trumpet. He saw some other kids playing with balls and bikes and dolls. He wanted to play with them, but he was shy. He sat on a bench and played with his little trumpet.
+
+"Hi, what is that?" a girl asked him. She had long hair and a pink dress. She came closer to Ben and looked at his little trumpet.
+
+"It's a trumpet," Ben said. "I can make music with it. Do you want to hear?"
+
+"Yes, please," the girl said. She smiled and sat next to him.
+
+Ben blew his little trumpet and made a soft sound. The girl clapped and said, "That's nice. Can I try?"
+
+Ben nodded and gave her his little trumpet. She blew it and made a loud sound. They both laughed.
+
+"Can you add another sound?" the girl asked. "Like this?" She hummed a tune and blew the trumpet.
+
+Ben tried to copy her. He hummed and blew the trumpet. They made a song together. They added more sounds and had fun.
+
+"Wow, you are good at playing the trumpet," the girl said. "What is your name?"
+
+"I'm Ben," Ben said. "What is yours?"
+
+"I'm Lily," the girl said. "Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+"Yes, I do," Ben said. He smiled and gave her a hug.
+
+They played with the trumpet and the other toys. They shared and took turns. They made more friends and more music. Ben was happy. He had a new friend and a little trumpet.
+Tom and Jen were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they found a big rod near the road. It was long and shiny and hard. They wanted to use it as a toy.
+
+"Look, Jen, we can rock with this rod!" Tom said. He lifted one end of the rod and swung it back and forth. "It is fun!"
+
+"Let me try, Tom!" Jen said. She grabbed the other end of the rod and pulled it. "It is heavy!"
+
+They rocked with the rod for a while, but they did not see the car coming. The car was fast and loud and terrible. The driver did not see the rod either. He was looking at his phone.
+
+The rod hit the car with a big bang. The car swerved and crashed into a tree. The rod flew out of Tom and Jen's hands and hit them in the head. They fell down and did not get up.
+
+The driver got out of the car and saw what he had done. He was scared and sorry and sad. He called for help, but it was too late. Tom and Jen were gone. They had rocked with the wrong rod.
+Lila and Tom are playing with their toys in the garden. Lila has a doll and Tom has a car. They are happy and share their toys.
+
+But then, Lila sees a rag on the ground. It is wet and dirty. She thinks it is a scarf for her doll. She picks it up and puts it around her doll's neck.
+
+"Look, Tom, my doll has a scarf!" she says.
+
+Tom looks at the rag and frowns. He thinks it is a flag for his car. He wants it for himself.
+
+"No, Lila, that is not a scarf, that is a flag!" he says. He grabs the rag from Lila and ties it to his car.
+
+Lila is angry and sad. She wants her scarf back. She pulls the rag from Tom and hugs it to her chest.
+
+"Give it back, Tom, it is mine!" she says.
+
+Tom is angry and sad too. He wants his flag back. He pushes Lila and tries to take the rag from her.
+
+"Give it back, Lila, it is mine!" he says.
+
+They both tug and shout and cry. They are not happy and do not share.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to the garden. She sees Lila and Tom fighting over the rag. She is not happy either.
+
+"What are you doing, Lila and Tom?" she asks. "Why are you fighting over a wet and dirty rag?"
+
+Lila and Tom stop and look at Mom. They do not know what to say.
+
+Mom takes the rag from them and throws it in the trash. She gives them a hug and a kiss.
+
+"Listen, Lila and Tom, you have many toys to play with. You do not need a rag. And you do not need to fight. You need to be kind and share. Do you understand?" she says.
+
+Lila and Tom nod and say sorry. They hug Mom and each other. They are happy again and share their toys. They do not want the rag anymore.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with their toys. Tom has a red automobile. Jen has a blue automobile. They want to see who has the faster automobile.
+
+They go to the park. They find a big hill. They put their automobiles at the top of the hill. They say, "Ready, set, go!" They let go of their automobiles. The automobiles roll down the hill.
+
+Tom's automobile is faster. It goes ahead of Jen's automobile. Tom is happy. He says, "I win! I win!" Jen is sad. She says, "No fair! You have a bigger automobile!"
+
+But then, something bad happens. Tom's automobile rolls too fast. It goes off the hill. It lands in a pond. The pond is wet. The automobile is wet. Tom is sad. He says, "Oh no! My automobile is wet! It is broken!"
+
+Jen runs to Tom. She says, "I'm sorry, Tom. That was an accident. Do you want to play with my automobile?" Tom says, "No, thank you. I want my automobile. It was my favorite." He cries. Jen cries. They are both sad. The end.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big box under a tree. They open the box and see many toys inside.
+
+"Wow, look at all these toys!" Tom says. "Can we play with them?"
+
+"Yes, let's play!" Lily says. "But we have to be quiet. This is our secret. We don't want anyone to take our toys."
+
+They take out some cars, dolls, balls and books. They have fun playing with the toys. They make noises and stories with them. They are very happy.
+
+But then they hear a voice. It is the park keeper. He is looking for the box.
+
+"Hey, who took my box?" he says. "I left it here for a charity. It has toys for children who have no toys. Where is it?"
+
+Tom and Lily are scared. They hide behind the tree. They hold the toys in their hands.
+
+"What should we do?" Lily whispers. "Should we give the box back?"
+
+"No, we can't," Tom whispers. "He will be angry with us. He will take our toys. We have to lie. We have to say we don't know where the box is."
+
+But Lily feels bad. She likes the toys, but she knows they are not theirs. She knows lying is wrong. She knows some children have no toys. She wants to be nice.
+
+She stands up and walks to the park keeper. She holds the box in her arms.
+
+"Excuse me, sir," she says. "We are sorry. We took your box. We didn't know it was for charity. We thought it was for us. We wanted to play with the toys. But we know we were wrong. Here is your box. Please don't be mad at us."
+
+The park keeper is surprised. He sees Lily and the box. He sees Tom behind the tree. He sees the toys in their hands.
+
+He smiles and says, "Thank you, Lily. You are very brave and honest. You did the right thing. I'm not mad at you. I'm proud of you. You can keep one toy each as a reward. But you have to promise me one thing. You have to share your toys with other children who have no toys. Can you do that?"
+
+Lily and Tom nod. They say, "Yes, we can. We promise."
+
+They choose one toy each. They give the rest of the toys to the park keeper. They hug him and say, "Thank you, sir. You are very nice."
+
+They run back to their parents. They show them their toys. They tell them their story. They are happy. They learned a lesson. They learned that lying is bad and sharing is good. They learned that secrets are not always fun. They learned that being nice is better.
+Lily liked to play with her purple car. She liked to drive it around the house and make noises. She liked to pretend she was a princess and the car was her carriage.
+
+One day, she saw a big box in the living room. It had a picture of a doll on it. Lily wanted to see the doll. She drove her car to the box and climbed on it. She opened the box and saw a beautiful doll with a dress and a crown. She was so happy.
+
+She took the doll out of the box and hugged it. She said, "Hello, doll. You are my new friend. You are a princess too. Do you want to ride in my car?"
+
+But the doll did not answer. The doll did not move. The doll did not smile. The doll was not a real doll. It was a cake. A cake for Lily's brother's birthday.
+
+Lily did not know that. She tried to put the doll in her car. But the doll was too big. And too soft. And too sticky. The doll broke into pieces. The cake fell on the floor. The icing got on Lily's car. And on Lily's dress. And on Lily's face.
+
+Lily started to cry. She was sad and scared. She did not mean to break the doll. She did not mean to ruin the cake. She did not know what to do.
+
+She heard footsteps. She heard voices. She heard her brother and her mom and her dad. They were coming to the living room. They were coming to see the cake. They were coming to see the mess.
+
+Lily wished she could hide. She wished she could drive away. She wished she could be a real princess. But she could not. She was in trouble. She had a bad day. The end.
+Lily did not like to eat her greens. She said they were bitter and made her face funny. Mommy told her to listen and try one bite. She said greens were good for her and made her strong and healthy.
+
+Lily did not want to listen. She hid her fork under the table and made a noise with her mouth. She hoped Mommy would not see her fork and think she ate her greens. But Mommy was smart and saw her fork. She was not happy.
+
+Mommy took Lily's fork and put a green on it. She said Lily had to eat it or no dessert. Lily did not want to miss dessert. She loved dessert. It was sweet and yummy. She looked at the green and made a face. She did not want to eat it.
+
+But then she saw something on the green. It was a tiny bug. It was crawling on the green and waving its legs. Lily thought the bug was cute and funny. She smiled and picked up the bug with her fingers. She said hello to the bug and asked its name.
+
+Mommy saw Lily with the bug and was surprised. She said Lily should not play with her food. She said the bug was not a toy and should go back to the garden. She took the bug from Lily and put it outside. She said Lily still had to eat her green.
+
+Lily was sad to say goodbye to the bug. She wished she could keep it as a friend. She looked at the green and felt sorry for it. She thought maybe it was lonely without the bug. She decided to eat the green and see how it tasted. She put it in her mouth and chewed. It was bitter, but not too bad. She swallowed and smiled. She said she ate her green and asked for dessert. Mommy was proud of her and gave her a hug. She said Lily was a good girl and gave her a slice of cake. Lily was happy and thanked Mommy. She said she liked cake and bugs and greens. Mommy laughed and said she loved Lily. They ate their cake and enjoyed their dessert.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the garden. They had a big bucket of water and some cups. They liked to pour water on the flowers and on each other.
+
+"Look, Lila, this flower is very wet!" Ben said, holding a cup of water.
+
+"Let me see!" Lila said, running to him. She put her hand on the flower and felt the water. "It is wet! And pretty!"
+
+They saw a butterfly on another flower. It was yellow and black. They wanted to give it some water too.
+
+"Be careful, Ben. Don't scare it!" Lila said.
+
+"I won't. I will be gentle." Ben said. He put some water in his hand and moved it slowly to the butterfly.
+
+The butterfly did not fly away. It stayed on the flower and drank some water from Ben's hand. It looked happy.
+
+"Wow, Ben, you are so generous!" Lila said. "You shared your water with the butterfly!"
+
+Ben smiled. He felt proud. He liked to be generous. He liked to make the butterfly happy.
+
+He and Lila watched the butterfly for a while. Then they went back to their bucket and cups. They had more water to play with. They had more fun to have.
+Sara was very tired. She had played a lot with her toys and her friends. She yawned and rubbed her eyes. She wanted to go to bed.
+
+"Mommy, can you read me a story?" she asked.
+
+"Of course, my sweetie. Come on, let's go to your room." Mommy said. She picked up Sara and carried her to her bed. She tucked her in with her favorite blanket and pillow. She gave her a kiss and a hug.
+
+"Which story do you want to hear?" Mommy asked.
+
+"The one with the bunny and the carrot." Sara said. She loved that story. It made her laugh and smile.
+
+"Okay, here we go." Mommy said. She opened the book and began to read. Sara listened with her ears and looked with her eyes. She saw the pictures of the bunny and the carrot. She heard the words of the story.
+
+The bunny was very hungry. He wanted to find a carrot. He hopped and hopped in the garden. He saw many flowers and bugs. But he did not see any carrots. He was sad and tired. He yawned and rubbed his eyes. He wanted to go to his burrow.
+
+"Mommy, what is a burrow?" Sara asked.
+
+"A burrow is a hole in the ground where the bunny lives. It is his home. It is warm and cozy and comfortable." Mommy said.
+
+"Oh, I see. Like my bed." Sara said.
+
+"Yes, like your bed." Mommy said. She smiled and continued to read.
+
+The bunny saw a big tree. He thought maybe there was a carrot under the tree. He hopped and hopped to the tree. He dug and dug with his paws. He found a big carrot. He was happy and excited. He bit and bit the carrot. It was crunchy and sweet. He ate and ate the carrot. He was full and satisfied. He yawned and rubbed his eyes. He wanted to go to his burrow.
+
+"Mommy, can I have a carrot?" Sara asked.
+
+"Maybe tomorrow, my darling. It is time to sleep now." Mommy said.
+
+"Okay, Mommy. I love you." Sara said.
+
+"I love you too, my precious. Good night." Mommy said. She closed the book and turned off the light. She stroked Sara's hair and sang a lullaby.
+
+Sara felt warm and cozy and comfortable. She closed her eyes and drifted to sleep. She dreamed of the bunny and the carrot. She smiled and snuggled with her blanket and pillow. She was happy and peaceful.
+Sara had a birdcage with a blue bird inside. She liked to watch the bird sing and fly in the cage. But the bird was lonely. He wanted to see other birds and feel the sun and the wind.
+
+One day, Sara's mom gave her a spray bottle to water the plants. Sara had an idea. She took the spray bottle and went to the birdcage. She sprayed some water on the bird and said, "Look, bird, it's like rain! Do you like it?"
+
+The bird did not like it. He was wet and cold and scared. He tried to hide in the corner of the cage. He stopped singing and flying. He looked sad and angry.
+
+Sara's mom saw what Sara did and said, "Sara, why did you spray the bird? He doesn't like it. He needs love and care, not water. How would you feel if someone sprayed you with water?"
+
+Sara thought about it and said, "I would feel bad. I'm sorry, bird. I wanted to make you happy, but I made you unhappy. I won't spray you again. I will give you some seeds and a toy and a hug. Maybe you can be my friend."
+
+The bird heard Sara's words and felt a little better. He came out of the corner and looked at Sara. He saw that she was sorry and kind. He gave her a chirp and a peck. He started to sing and fly again. He was still lonely, but he had a friend. Sara and the bird learned to be nice to each other.
+Timmy loved spaghetti. He ate it every day for lunch and dinner. He did not like to share his spaghetti with anyone. He always wanted more and more.
+
+One day, he saw a big bowl of spaghetti on the table. He ran to it and grabbed a fork. He did not see his mom or dad or sister. He thought they were not hungry. He started to eat the spaghetti very fast.
+
+But then, something strange happened. The bowl of spaghetti started to disappear. Every time he took a bite, the bowl became more empty. He did not understand. He ate faster and faster, but the spaghetti was gone.
+
+He looked around and saw his family. They were watching him with sad faces. His mom said, "Timmy, that was our spaghetti. We made it for everyone to share. But you ate it all by yourself. Now we have nothing to eat. How do you feel?"
+
+Timmy felt very bad. He realized he was selfish and greedy. He wished he could give some spaghetti back to his family. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry, dad. I'm sorry, sister. I was wrong. I should have shared with you. Can you forgive me?"
+
+His family hugged him and said, "We forgive you, Timmy. We love you. But next time, please remember to think of others. Sharing is caring. And caring makes everyone happy."
+
+Timmy learned his lesson. He never ate all the spaghetti again. He always shared with his family and friends. He found out that sharing made him happy too. And he always thanked his mom for making the best spaghetti in the world.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. Sometimes they found worms and snails and beetles. They put them in a jar and watched them.
+
+One day, they saw a rabbit hopping near the fence. It was brown and fluffy and had long ears. Sara and Ben wanted to pet it and feed it. They ran to the kitchen and asked their mom for some food for the rabbit.
+
+"Mom, can we have a carrot for the rabbit?" Sara asked.
+
+"Sure, honey, but be careful. The rabbit might be scared of you. Don't chase it or grab it. Just hold the carrot and let it come to you," Mom said. She gave them a big orange carrot and told them to share it.
+
+Sara and Ben went back to the garden. They saw the rabbit still near the fence. They broke the carrot in half and each held a piece. They walked slowly and quietly to the rabbit. They said, "Hello, rabbit. We have a carrot for you. Do you want some?"
+
+The rabbit looked at them with its big eyes. It sniffed the air and smelled the carrot. It hopped closer to Sara and Ben. It nibbled on Sara's carrot. It liked it. It nibbled on Ben's carrot. It liked it too. It licked their fingers and rubbed its nose on their hands. Sara and Ben smiled and giggled. They petted the rabbit gently.
+
+The rabbit was happy. It had made new friends. It wanted to stay with them. It followed them around the garden. It played with them and their jar of bugs. It was a fun day.
+
+But then, the sun started to set. It was getting dark and cold. The rabbit heard a harsh sound. It was a dog barking. It was coming from the other side of the fence. The rabbit was scared. It did not like dogs. It ran to the fence and squeezed through a hole. It said, "Bye, Sara and Ben. Thank you for the carrot. You are nice. I recommend you to come back tomorrow. I will be here. Good night."
+
+Sara and Ben were sad. They wanted the rabbit to stay. They said, "Bye, rabbit. We love you. We will come back tomorrow. Good night."
+
+They went inside and told their mom about the rabbit. Mom hugged them and said, "You are very kind to the rabbit. I'm proud of you. Maybe you will see it again tomorrow. Now, it's time for bed. Sweet dreams."
+
+Sara and Ben went to bed. They dreamed of the rabbit and the carrot and the bugs. They hoped to see their new friend again. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They had a big tub of water and some toys. Lily had a yellow crown that she liked to wear. Ben had a blue boat that he liked to sail.
+
+"Look at my crown!" Lily said. "It is shiny and pretty. I am a queen!"
+
+"Look at my boat!" Ben said. "It is fast and strong. I am a captain!"
+
+They took turns to put their toys in the water and make them splash. They had fun and laughed.
+
+But then, Ben had an idea. He grabbed Lily's crown and threw it in the water. It sank to the bottom.
+
+"Hey!" Lily cried. "That is not nice! Give me back my crown!"
+
+Ben laughed. He reached for the crown, but it was too deep. He could not get it.
+
+"Ha ha!" Lily said. "Now you can't have it either!"
+
+Ben felt bad. He did not mean to make Lily sad. He tried to say sorry, but Lily was angry. She splashed water at him. He splashed back. They got wet and cold.
+
+The water was rough and dirty. It soaked their clothes and hair. It made their skin itch. They did not like it.
+
+They stopped splashing and looked at each other. They were both sorry. They hugged and said sorry.
+
+They got out of the water and dried themselves. They looked for the crown, but they could not find it. It was gone.
+
+They were sad, but they decided to share the boat. They played with it on the grass. They pretended to sail to a new land. They found a new crown made of flowers. They took turns to wear it. They were happy again.
+Lily and Ben love to play with their toy horse. It is brown and soft and has a long tail. They pretend it is a real horse and they can ride it.
+
+One day, they find a big box in the living room. It has a bow on it and a card that says "For Lily and Ben, from Grandma and Grandpa". They are very excited and open the box. Inside, they see a new toy horse. It is white and shiny and has a button on its ear.
+
+"What is this?" Lily asks.
+
+"Let's try it!" Ben says. He presses the button and the horse starts to make noises. It neighs and snorts and moves its head. Lily and Ben are amazed and happy.
+
+"Wow, it can talk!" Lily says.
+
+"Maybe it can walk too!" Ben says. He pulls the horse out of the box and puts it on the floor. He presses the button again and the horse starts to walk. It walks around the living room, making more noises.
+
+Lily and Ben follow the horse and laugh. They try to pet it and hug it, but the horse is too fast and too fat. It bumps into the sofa and the table and the lamp. It knocks over a vase and a picture and a book. It makes a big mess.
+
+"Stop, horse, stop!" Lily and Ben shout.
+
+But the horse does not stop. It keeps walking and making noises. It walks out of the living room and into the kitchen. It walks into the fridge and the oven and the sink. It spills milk and eggs and flour. It makes a bigger mess.
+
+"Stop, horse, stop!" Lily and Ben shout louder.
+
+But the horse does not stop. It walks out of the kitchen and into the hallway. It walks into the bathroom and the bedroom and the closet. It breaks a mirror and a clock and a toy. It makes the biggest mess.
+
+"Stop, horse, stop!" Lily and Ben scream.
+
+But the horse does not stop. It walks out of the house and into the yard. It walks into the flowers and the grass and the mud. It ruins the garden and the fence and the swing. It makes the worst mess.
+
+"Stop, horse, stop!" Lily and Ben cry.
+
+But the horse does not stop. It walks out of the yard and into the street. It walks into the cars and the bikes and the people. It causes a lot of trouble and noise and chaos.
+
+"Stop, horse, stop!" Lily and Ben yell.
+
+But the horse does not stop. It walks away and disappears.
+
+Lily and Ben are very sad and scared. They look at the mess they made and the horse they lost. They do not know what to do.
+
+Then, they hear a voice.
+
+"Hello, Lily and Ben. Did you like your present?"
+
+It is Grandma and Grandpa. They are smiling and holding the horse. They found it in the street and brought it back.
+
+"Grandma, Grandpa, we are sorry!" Lily and Ben say. "We made a big mess and we lost your horse!"
+
+"It's okay, sweeties. We are not mad. We are glad you are safe. The horse is not a real horse. It is a robot horse. It has a remote control. You can make it start and stop and do other things. We will show you how to use it. And we will help you clean up the mess. Don't worry, it will be fun."
+
+Lily and Ben hug Grandma and Grandpa. They are happy and relieved. They say thank you and sorry. They learn how to use the remote control. They play with the horse again, but this time, they make it stop when they want. They have fun and they are careful. They love their new toy horse. It is white and shiny and fat.
+Lily hated clothes. She did not like to wear them at all. She liked to run and play with nothing on. She felt free and comfortable. She did not care if she was cold or dirty.
+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom. She saw other kids wearing clothes. They had pretty dresses and cool shirts. They had hats and shoes and socks. Lily thought they looked silly. She ran away from them and played by herself.
+
+But then, Lily felt something sting her foot. She stepped on a bee. It hurt a lot. She cried and cried. Her mom came and picked her up. She took off the bee and put a band-aid on her foot. She said, "Lily, you need to wear clothes. They protect you from the sun and the bugs and the dirt. They keep you warm and safe. They are not silly. They are good for you."
+
+Lily felt sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was wrong. I don't hate clothes. I just don't like them very much. Can I wear something comfortable and fun?"
+
+Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said, "Of course, you can. Let's go home and find something you like. And maybe we can get you some new clothes that you will love."
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She learned that clothes are not bad. They are useful and nice. She decided to try different clothes and find her own style. She still liked to run and play, but she also liked to wear clothes. She was happy and comfortable.
+Tom and Mia are playing with their toys in the living room. They have a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. But then, Tom feels something in his tummy. He needs to go to the toilet.
+
+"Tom, can I have your car?" Mia asks, reaching for his toy.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Tom says, holding it tight.
+
+"But I want to play with it!" Mia says, pulling it hard.
+
+"Stop it, Mia!" Tom says, feeling more and more uncomfortable.
+
+"Give it to me, Tom!" Mia says, getting angry.
+
+Tom and Mia start to fight over the car. They yell and cry and hit each other. Their mom hears the noise and comes to the living room.
+
+"What's going on here?" she asks, looking at the mess.
+
+"Tom won't share his car with me!" Mia says, pointing at him.
+
+"Mia is trying to take my car!" Tom says, pointing at her.
+
+Mom sighs and picks up the car. She puts it on the shelf.
+
+"Enough, you two. You need to learn to share and be nice to each other. And Tom, you look like you need to go to the toilet. Why don't you go now?" she suggests, taking his hand.
+
+"But I want my car!" Tom says, whining.
+
+"You can have it later, after you go to the toilet. Come on, let's go." Mom says, leading him to the bathroom.
+
+Mia watches them go. She feels a little sorry for Tom. She knows how it feels to need to go to the toilet. She decides to wait for him to come back and play with him again. She hopes he will share his car with her then.
+
+She looks around the living room. It is very quiet and peaceful now. She picks up another toy and starts to play with it. She smiles and hums a song. She likes it when it is peaceful.

+One day, Lily sees a big rope hanging from the ceiling. She wants to try it. She asks her mom, "Mom, can I go on the rope?"
+
+Her mom says, "Sure, Lily, but be careful. The rope is not easy. You have to hold on tight and use your arms and legs."
+
+Lily nods and runs to the rope. She grabs it with both hands and tries to pull herself up. But the rope is too hard. She slips and falls to the floor. She feels sad and hurt.
+
+Her mom comes to her and hugs her. She says, "It's okay, Lily. You did a good job. The rope is not easy for anyone. You can try again another day. Do you want to play with something else?"
+
+Lily smiles and says, "Yes, mom. Can we go on the slide?"
+
+Her mom says, "Of course, Lily. The slide is easy and fun. Come on, let's go."
+
+Lily and her mom go to the slide. They slide down together and laugh. Lily feels happy and proud. She loves the gym and her mom.
+Lily was an adventurous girl who liked to explore new places. One day, she found a big box in the attic. She wondered what was inside. She opened the box and saw many old things. She saw a hat, a book, a doll, and a necklace.
+
+She put on the hat and the necklace and pretended to be a princess. She looked at the book and saw many pictures of animals and plants. She opened the doll and saw a button. She pressed the button and the doll started to talk.
+
+"Hello, I am Anna. Do you want to be my friend?" the doll said.
+
+Lily was surprised. She had never heard a doll talk before. She smiled and said, "Yes, I want to be your friend. I am Lily. What can you do?"
+
+"I can sing, I can dance, I can tell stories. Do you want to hear a song?" the doll said.
+
+"Yes, please. Sing me a song," Lily said.
+
+The doll sang a song about a spider who made a cobweb. Lily liked the song. She clapped her hands and said, "That was a nice song. Can you show me how to make a cobweb?"
+
+The doll nodded and said, "Yes, I can. Follow me." The doll led Lily to a corner of the attic where there was a big cobweb. The doll pointed to the cobweb and said, "This is how a spider makes a cobweb. It spins a thread and makes a pattern. It is very clever and beautiful."
+
+Lily looked at the cobweb and said, "Wow, it is very clever and beautiful. Can I touch it?"
+
+The doll said, "Yes, you can. But be careful. There might be a spider hiding in it."
+
+Lily reached out her hand and touched the cobweb. It was soft and sticky. She felt something move on her finger. She looked and saw a small spider. She screamed and dropped the doll.
+
+The spider ran away and the doll fell on the floor. The doll said, "Don't be scared. The spider is not harmful. It just wants to live in its home."
+
+Lily calmed down and said, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scream. I was just surprised. The spider scared me."
+
+The doll said, "It's okay. I understand. The spider surprised me too. But it is not a bad spider. It is just a spider."
+
+Lily said, "I know. It is just a spider. And you are just a doll. But you are a very special doll. You can talk and sing and dance and tell stories. You are my new friend."
+
+The doll said, "And you are my new friend too. You are an adventurous girl who likes to explore new places. You are very brave and kind. You make me happy."
+
+Lily hugged the doll and said, "You make me happy too. Let's play some more."
+
+The doll said, "Yes, let's play some more. There are many more things to see and do in the attic. Come on, let's go."
+
+Lily and the doll went to play some more. They had a lot of fun in the attic. They found many more old things and made up many more stories. They were happy and surprised by each other. They were the best of friends.
+Ben and Mia liked to play with paper. They could fold it into many shapes, like birds, boats and hats. They had a big box where they kept their paper creations. They were very organized and always put them back in the box when they were done.
+
+One day, they wanted to go outside and fly their paper birds. But when they looked out the window, they saw a lot of fog. They could not see the sky or the trees or the road. They were sad and scared.
+
+"Can we still go outside?" Mia asked.
+
+"No, it is too foggy. We might get lost or hurt," Ben said.
+
+"Then what can we do?" Mia said.
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He had an idea.
+
+"Let's make a big paper fog monster. We can use all the paper in the box and tape it together. It will be fun and scary," he said.
+
+Mia liked the idea. They took out all the paper from the box and started to fold and tape it. They made a big head, a long body, four legs and two arms. They gave it eyes, a nose and a mouth. They were very proud of their paper fog monster.
+
+They decided to put it in the living room and surprise their mom when she came home. They dragged it to the couch and hid behind it. They waited for their mom.
+
+Soon, they heard the door open and their mom's voice.
+
+"Hello, kids, I'm home. Where are you?" she said.
+
+Ben and Mia giggled and jumped out from behind the paper fog monster.
+
+"Boo! We made a paper fog monster. Do you like it?" they said.
+
+Their mom screamed and dropped her bags. She was very angry and scared.
+
+"What is this? What have you done? You ruined all the paper. You made a mess. You scared me. This is not funny. This is bad. Go to your room. Now!" she said.
+
+Ben and Mia started to cry. They did not understand why their mom was so mad. They thought she would like their paper fog monster. They felt sorry and ashamed. They ran to their room and hugged each other. They wished they had not made the paper fog monster. They wished the fog would go away. They wished their mom would love them again.
+Tom and Sue were playing in the kitchen. They saw a big bowl of dough on the table. It looked soft and yummy.
+
+"Let's make some cookies!" Tom said.
+
+"OK!" Sue said.
+
+They climbed on the chairs and grabbed some dough. They rolled it and shaped it into different things. They made stars, hearts, balls and animals.
+
+They were having fun until they heard a loud growl. They turned around and saw a big, hairy dog. It was angry and hungry. It wanted the dough.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Tom shouted.
+
+But the dog did not listen. It jumped on the table and knocked over the bowl. It grabbed the dough and ate it all. It also grabbed Tom and Sue's cookies and ate them too.
+
+Tom and Sue were scared and sad. They ran away and cried.
+
+The dog was happy and full. It licked its lips and wagged its tail.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, they saw a big parade on the street. There were many people with flags and drums and horns. They made a lot of noise and marched in a line.
+
+"Wow, look at them!" Lily said. "They are so impressive. I want to march like them."
+
+"Me too!" Ben said. "Let's join them. Come on, follow me."
+
+They ran to the street and tried to march with the parade. But they did not see the red light and the cross. A car was coming fast and honked its horn.
+
+"Stop! Stop!" the driver shouted. "You are in danger. Get off the road."
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They ran back to the park and hugged each other. They were sorry for being silly and not looking before crossing.
+
+"Are you okay?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, I'm okay. Are you?" Ben asked.
+
+"Yes, I'm okay. But we were very foolish. We should not have run to the street. We should have stayed in the park and watched from afar." Lily said.
+
+"You are right. We should have listened to the rules. The rules are there to keep us safe. We should not try to be impressive and do things we are not supposed to do." Ben said.
+
+They learned their lesson and never ran to the street again. They still liked to watch the parade, but they did it from the park, where they were safe and happy.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big box. They want to make a boat with the box.
+
+"Let's tie this rope to the box. Then we can pull it," Ben says. He finds a rope and ties it to the box.
+
+"Good idea, Ben. And we need a sail, too. Look, I have a cute scarf. We can use it as a sail," Anna says. She finds a scarf and ties it to a stick. She puts the stick in the box.
+
+"Now we have a boat. Let's go to the pond and sail it," Ben says. He pulls the rope and Anna holds the stick. They walk to the pond.
+
+But when they get to the pond, they see a problem. There is a sign that says: "No boats allowed."
+
+"Oh no, we can't sail our boat here. What can we do?" Anna says. She feels sad.
+
+"Maybe we can find another place to sail it. Or we can play something else with our boat. Like pirates or explorers," Ben says. He tries to cheer up Anna.
+
+"Or we can give our boat to someone who needs it. Like that duck over there. He looks lonely. Maybe he wants a friend," Anna says. She points to a duck that is swimming by itself.
+
+"That's a nice idea, Anna. Let's do that. Maybe the duck will like our boat," Ben says. He smiles.
+
+They take their boat to the duck and put it in the water. The duck swims to the boat and quacks. He likes the boat. He gets in the boat and flaps his wings. He looks happy.
+
+"Look, he likes our boat. He is sailing it. He is cute," Anna says. She claps her hands.
+
+"Yes, he is. And we are good friends. We made a boat and we made a duck happy," Ben says. He hugs Anna.
+
+They watch the duck sail their boat. They feel happy, too. They are good friends.
+Lisa and Tom were playing hide and seek in the garden. Lisa was the seeker and Tom was the hider. Lisa counted to ten and then looked for Tom. She saw his shoes behind a big bush. She ran to the bush and shouted, "I found you!"
+
+Tom jumped out of the bush and laughed. He said, "You are good at finding me, Lisa. But I have a surprise for you. Come and see." He took Lisa's hand and led her to the back of the house. There was a table with a red cloth and two glasses. On the table was a bottle of wine.
+
+Tom said, "This is for you, Lisa. I made it with grapes from the garden. It is very sweet and yummy. Do you want to try it?" He opened the bottle and poured some wine into the glasses. He gave one to Lisa and said, "Cheers!"
+
+Lisa smiled and took the glass. She said, "Thank you, Tom. You are very nice. This is a good surprise." She sipped the wine and made a funny face. She said, "This is not sweet and yummy. This is sour and bitter. Yuck!"
+
+Tom laughed and said, "I know. I was joking. This is not wine. This is vinegar. I wanted to see your face when you tasted it. It was very funny. Did you like my joke?"
+
+Lisa frowned and said, "No, I did not like your joke. That was mean, Tom. You tricked me. You made me drink vinegar. That is not nice. You are a bad friend." She threw the glass on the ground and ran away. The glass broke and the vinegar spilled. The red cloth and the grass became wet.
+
+Tom felt sorry and said, "I'm sorry, Lisa. I did not mean to hurt you. I just wanted to have fun. Please come back. I have a real surprise for you. It is not a joke. It is something nice. Please forgive me."
+
+But Lisa did not hear him. She was too angry and sad. She went to her house and did not talk to Tom for a long time. Tom was sad too. He wished he did not reveal his joke. He wished he did not make Lisa drink vinegar. He wished he was a better friend.
+Lily liked to wander near the pond. She saw many birds and fish there. She liked to feed them bread and watch them swim. One day, she saw a big white bird with a long neck. It was a swan. Lily wanted to touch it.
+
+She walked closer to the swan. The swan did not like it. It hissed and flapped its wings. It was very noisy. Lily was scared. She ran away. She dropped her bread. The swan ate it.
+
+Lily's mom saw what happened. She came to Lily and hugged her. She said, "Lily, you should not wander too close to the swan. It can hurt you. It is not a pet. It is a wild bird. You should respect it and keep a safe distance. Then you can enjoy its beauty."
+
+Lily learned her lesson. She said sorry to the swan. She said, "Swan, I am sorry. I did not mean to bother you. You are very pretty. I will not come too close to you again." The swan nodded and swam away. Lily smiled and waved. She was happy. She understood how to be kind to animals.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a big pile of dirt and leaves. They wanted to dig and find treasures.
+
+"Look, I found a shiny rock!" Lily said, holding a pebble.
+
+"Wow, that's pretty!" Ben said. He dug deeper and saw something black and round. "What's this?" He pulled it out and saw a filthy telephone. It had wires and buttons and a broken screen.
+
+"Maybe it's a toy," Lily said. She took the telephone and tried to press the buttons. Nothing happened. She shook it and heard a rattling sound.
+
+"Let me see," Ben said. He grabbed the telephone and poked the screen with his finger. It made a crack. "Oops!"
+
+Suddenly, they heard a voice from the telephone. It was loud and angry.
+
+"Hey, stop poking my phone! Who are you? Where are you?" the voice said.
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They dropped the telephone and ran away. They did not want to play with the filthy telephone anymore. They decided to play with the shiny rock instead.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. But Lily wanted to try something new. She saw a big tree with a long rope. She had an idea.
+
+"Tom, let's play with the rope. We can tie it to the tree and swing like monkeys," she said.
+
+Tom nodded. He liked monkeys. He followed Lily to the tree. Lily picked up the rope and tried to tie it to a branch. But the rope was too thick and the branch was too high. She could not tie it.
+
+"Help me, Tom. You are taller than me. You can tie the rope," she said.
+
+Tom tried to help Lily. He jumped and stretched and pulled the rope. But he could not tie it either. The rope was too heavy and the branch was too far. He gave up.
+
+"Lily, this is too hard. Let's play something else. The rope is no fun," he said.
+
+But Lily did not hear him. She was deaf. She could not hear what Tom said. She only saw his mouth move. She thought he was still trying to tie the rope. She smiled and waited.
+
+Tom saw that Lily did not hear him. He felt sad. He wanted to play with Lily, but he did not know how to talk to her. He wished he could make her hear him.
+
+He looked around. He saw a flashlight on the ground. Someone had left it there. He had an idea.
+
+He picked up the flashlight and turned it on. He pointed it at Lily. He flashed it on and off, on and off. He made a pattern with the light. He hoped Lily would see it.
+
+Lily saw the light. She was surprised. She looked at Tom. She saw him flash the light. She understood. He was talking to her with the light. He was saying, "Let's go. It is getting dark. We have to go home."
+
+She nodded. She flashed the light back. She was saying, "OK. I am coming. Thank you for playing with me."
+
+Tom smiled. He was happy. He had found a way to talk to Lily. He held her hand and they ran to their parents. They had fun playing with the rope and the light. They were friends.
+Tom and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with their toys in the living room. One day, they found a big leather bag in the closet. It was their dad's bag. He used it when he went to work.
+
+"What is in the bag?" Tom asked. He wanted to open it and see.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe something interesting," Sam said. He wanted to open it too.
+
+They looked at each other and nodded. They pulled the bag out of the closet and unzipped it. Inside, they saw many papers, books, pens, and a laptop.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Tom said. He picked up the laptop and turned it on. It made a beep sound and showed a picture of their dad.
+
+"Let me see!" Sam said. He grabbed the laptop from Tom and held it in his hands. He pressed some buttons and made the picture change.
+
+"Hey, give it back!" Tom said. He tried to take the laptop from Sam. They started to fight over it. They pulled and pushed and shouted.
+
+"Stop it, boys!" their mom said. She came into the living room and saw them fighting. She was angry. She took the laptop from them and put it back in the bag. She zipped it up and put it back in the closet.
+
+"This is your dad's bag. It has his important things for work. You are not allowed to touch it. Do you understand?" she said.
+
+Tom and Sam nodded. They felt sorry. They did not want to make their mom and dad mad.
+
+"Promise me you will not touch it again," their mom said.
+
+"We promise, mom," Tom and Sam said.
+
+They hugged their mom and said they were sorry. Their mom hugged them back and said she loved them. She told them to play nicely with their own toys. She left the living room.
+
+Tom and Sam looked at each other. They smiled. They still thought the bag was interesting. But they did not want to break their promise. They decided to play with their cars and trucks instead. They had fun. They forgot about the bag.
+Lila and Tom are twins. They like to play on the farm with their dog, Spot. One day, they see a huge pile of wheat near the barn. They want to climb on it and have fun.
+
+They run to the wheat and start to climb. Spot follows them and barks. The wheat is soft and yellow, but also slippery. Lila and Tom have to be careful not to fall.
+
+Lila reaches the top of the pile and shouts, "Look at me! I am so high!" Tom tries to catch up with her, but he slips on the wheat. He slides down the pile and lands on the ground. He is not hurt, but he is covered in wheat.
+
+Spot runs to Tom and licks his face. Tom laughs and says, "That was fun! Let's do it again!" Lila slides down the pile and joins them. They climb and slide on the wheat until they are tired and hungry.
+
+They go back to the house and have some bread and milk. Their mom smiles and says, "You look like you had a lot of fun on the wheat. But you also made a big mess. You need to take a bath and clean up." Lila and Tom nod and say, "OK, mom. We love you." They hug their mom and Spot and go to the bathroom. They are happy and dirty.
+Tim and Jen are friends. They like to play in the park. The park has a huge slide. Tim and Jen want to go on the slide.
+
+They run to the slide and wait in line. Tim is first. He climbs up the steps and sits on the slide. He says, "Bye, Jen! See you at the bottom!" He slides down fast and laughs.
+
+Jen is next. She climbs up the steps and sits on the slide. She says, "Here I come, Tim!" She slides down fast and smiles.
+
+But then, something bad happens. Jen slides too fast and hits Tim. They both fall off the slide and hurt themselves. They cry and scream.
+
+A lady comes and helps them. She says, "Oh, no! You two are hurt! Let me see your boo-boos." She looks at their knees and elbows. They have blood and dirt on them. She says, "You need to go to the doctor. Come with me."
+
+Tim and Jen are scared. They don't want to go to the doctor. They want to play in the park. But they have no choice. They hold the lady's hand and walk to her car. They leave the park and the huge slide. They are sad and sore. The end.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their dog, Spot, in the park. They had a stick that they threw for Spot to fetch. Spot loved to run and catch the stick, and bring it back to Ben and Lily.
+
+One time, Spot ran so fast that he broke the stick in half. He had a big piece in his mouth, and a small piece fell on the ground. Ben and Lily saw the small piece and both wanted it.
+
+"I want it!" Ben said, and ran to the piece.
+
+"No, I want it!" Lily said, and ran after him.
+
+They reached the piece at the same time, and each grabbed one end. They pulled and pulled, trying to get the piece for themselves. They did not share or take turns. They were not polite.
+
+Spot saw them fighting, and he did not like it. He dropped the big piece, and barked at them. He wanted them to stop and play nicely.
+
+"Spot is right," Ben said, feeling sorry. "We should not fight. We should split the piece and share."
+
+"Yes, you are right," Lily said, feeling sorry too. "We should be polite and take turns."
+
+They let go of the piece, and broke it into two smaller pieces. They gave one piece to Spot, and kept one piece each. They thanked each other, and hugged.
+
+Spot wagged his tail, and licked their faces. He was happy that they were friends again. He picked up the big piece, and ran to them. He wanted to play more.
+
+They threw the big piece for Spot to fetch, and took turns with the small pieces. They had fun, and were polite. They learned to share and not fight. They loved Spot, and Spot loved them.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the grass. They liked to run and jump and roll on the green grass. They saw a big ant on the grass. The ant was carrying a leaf that was bigger than him.
+
+"Wow, look at the ant!" Ben said. "He is so strong. He can lift a big leaf."
+
+Lily nodded. She wanted to talk to the ant. She bent down and said, "Hello, ant. Where are you going with the leaf?"
+
+The ant did not reply. He kept walking on the grass. He was busy and did not have time to talk.
+
+Lily felt sad. She wanted to be friends with the ant. She said, "Please, ant, can you talk to me? I want to play with you."
+
+The ant did not reply. He walked faster on the grass. He wanted to reach his home and share the leaf with his family.
+
+Ben saw that Lily was sad. He said, "Don't worry, Lily. The ant is not rude. He is just working hard. He has to feed his family. Maybe we can play with him another day."
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "You are right, Ben. The ant is not rude. He is strong and brave. Maybe we can play with him another day. But now, let's play with each other. We can run and jump and roll on the grass."
+
+Ben and Lily hugged. They were happy. They played in the grass until it was time to go home.

+
+At the park, Sara and Ben see a big slide. They want to go on it. Mom says they can, but they have to eat their picnic first. Sara and Ben nod. They find a nice spot under a tree and sit down. But then they hear some noisy kids. The noisy kids are running and shouting. They are having fun on the slide.
+
+Sara and Ben look at the noisy kids. They look at their picnic. They look at each other. They want to join the noisy kids. They urge mom to let them go. Mom says no. They have to eat their picnic first. It is good for them. Sara and Ben whine. They say they are not hungry. They say they will eat later. Mom says no. They have to eat their picnic now. It is not fair to waste food.
+
+Sara and Ben are angry. They cross their arms. They pout. They do not eat their picnic. They do not talk to mom. They do not have fun. Mom is sad. She tries to cheer them up. She says they can go on the slide after they eat. She says they can share their picnic with the noisy kids. She says they can make new friends. Sara and Ben do not listen. They do not care.
+
+After a while, the noisy kids leave. The slide is empty. Sara and Ben look at the slide. They look at their picnic. They look at each other. They feel sorry. They wasted their time. They wasted their food. They hurt mom's feelings. They missed their chance. They say sorry to mom. They hug her. They eat their picnic. They say thank you. They go on the slide. They have fun.

+
+Tom helps Sam get up. He holds his hand. He takes his bike. He walks with Sam to his house. He says sorry again.
+
+"It's okay, Tom, it's okay," Sam says. "It was an accident. It was not your fault. Your bike is still new and shiny. I still like your bike. And I still like you. You are my friend."
+
+Tom smiles. He is glad. He likes Sam too. He is his friend. He gives him a hug. He says thank you.
+Ben and Mia were having lunch with their mom. They liked to eat pasta with sauce, but they did not like the same sauce. Ben liked red sauce, and Mia liked white sauce. Mom made both sauces for them, and put them in different bowls.
+
+"Here you are, my loves. You can choose your sauce and put it on your pasta," mom said.
+
+Ben reached for the red sauce, but Mia stopped him. "No, Ben, don't take that sauce. It is bad for you. It has too much salt and sugar. You should take the white sauce. It is good for you. It has cheese and milk," Mia said.
+
+Ben looked at Mia and frowned. "No, Mia, you are wrong. The red sauce is good for you. It has tomatoes and herbs. You should take the red sauce. It is yummy. The white sauce is bad for you. It has too much fat and oil," Ben said.
+
+Mom smiled and shook her head. "Mia, Ben, you are both silly. Both sauces are good for you, in regular amounts. You can eat what you like, as long as you eat some vegetables too. And you should trust each other, and not say bad things about each other's sauce. You are brother and sister, and you should be kind and share," mom said.
+
+Ben and Mia looked at each other and felt sorry. They said sorry to each other, and hugged. Then they took some sauce and some vegetables, and ate their pasta. They both liked their sauce, and they both liked their mom. They were happy and full.

+Lily and Tom were playing with their cars on the floor. They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving fast. Lily had a red car and Tom had a blue car.
+
+"Look, my car can jump over this cable!" Tom said. He pointed to a long, thin thing on the floor. It was part of the TV.
+
+"No, don't do that!" Lily said. "Mommy said the cable is not a toy. It can break the TV and spoil our fun."
+
+But Tom did not listen. He pushed his car hard and made it fly over the cable. But he pushed too hard and the car hit the TV. The TV made a loud noise and turned off. The cable came out of the wall.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Tom said. They were scared. They broke the TV and the cable.
+
+They heard Mommy coming. She saw the TV and the cable and the cars. She was angry.
+
+"What did you do?" Mommy asked. "You spoiled the TV and the cable. Now we can't watch anything. And the cable is wet. Did you spill something on it?"
+
