She ran outside and gave it to Mr. Lee. + +"Here, Mr. Lee, you can have my violin," she said. "It is not very old or rare, but it is very special. It was my grandma's violin. She gave it to me. I remember her every time I play it. Maybe you can play it and remember your father. Maybe you can sell it and pay your rent. Maybe you can stay." + +Mr. Lee looked at Lily with tears in his eyes. He hugged her and thanked her. He took her violin and played a beautiful song. The man watched and listened. He felt sorry for Mr. Lee. He changed his mind. + +"OK, Mr. Lee, you can keep your violin," he said. "But you have to pay me something. How about you play me a song every month? And you teach Lily how to play too. She is a very good girl. She has a very big heart." + +Mr. Lee smiled and nodded. He was happy. Lily was happy. They played their violins together. They remembered their loved ones. They made new friends. +Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play and learn together. Today, they have a quiz at school. The quiz is about animals and colors. + +Sara is good at animals and colors. She knows a lot of names and sounds. She is not afraid of the quiz. She thinks it will be fun. + +Tom is not good at animals and colors. He forgets some names and sounds. He is afraid of the quiz. He thinks it will be hard. + +The teacher gives them the quiz. She asks them to look at the pictures and say the names and colors of the animals. Sara raises her hand for every question. She says the right answers. She is happy. + +Tom does not raise his hand. He does not know some answers. He is sad. + +The teacher sees that Tom is sad. She goes to him and says, "Don't worry, Tom. You can try again. I will help you. Animals and colors are fun. You can learn them with Sara. She is your friend." + +Tom looks at Sara. Sara smiles at him and says, "Yes, Tom. I am your friend. I will help you. We can play and learn together. Animals and colors are fun. You can do it." + +Tom feels better. He says, "Thank you, teacher. Thank you, Sara. You are my friends. I will try again. I will learn animals and colors. I can do it." +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play together. Today they want to go to the park with Mom. But first they have to get ready. + +Lily goes to the bathroom and finds her comb. She combs her hair and makes a ponytail. She looks in the mirror and smiles. She is ready. + +Ben goes to the bathroom and looks for his comb. He cannot find it. He sees Lily's comb on the sink. He thinks it is his comb. He grabs it and combs his hair. He does not make a ponytail. He looks in the mirror and frowns. He is not ready. + +Lily comes back to the bathroom and sees Ben with her comb. She is angry. She says, "Ben, that is my comb! Give it back!" + +Ben says, "No, it is my comb! I need it!" + +Lily says, "No, it is not! It is pink and has flowers. Your comb is blue and has cars. Where is your comb?" + +Ben says, "I don't know. I can't find it." + +Lily says, "Maybe you left it in your room. Go and look for it. Hurry up! We have to go to the park." + +Ben says, "Okay, okay. I will go and look for it. But you have to give me back my comb." + +Lily says, "It is not your comb! It is mine! But I will let you use it for now. But you have to give it back when you find your comb." + +Ben says, "Fine, fine. Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister." + +Lily says, "You are welcome, Ben. You are a good brother. But next time, don't take my comb. It is not nice." + +Ben says, "I'm sorry, Lily. I won't do it again." + +They hug and smile. They are ready. + +Mom comes and sees them. She says, "Are you ready to go to the park?" + +Lily and Ben say, "Yes, Mom! We are ready!" + +Mom says, "Good. Let's go then. We will have fun and spend time together." + +Lily and Ben say, "Yay! We love the park!" + +They take their combs and follow Mom. They are happy. +Lila and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big, hairy dog. The dog was friendly and wagged its tail. Lila and Tom wanted to pet the dog, but they asked the owner first. + +"Can we touch your dog?" Lila asked. + +"Sure, his name is Max. He likes children," the owner said. + +Lila and Tom stroked Max's fur and scratched his ears. Max licked their faces and made them giggle. They had fun with Max. + +Then they saw something shiny on the grass. It was a big, colorful egg. Lila and Tom wondered what was inside the egg. + +"Maybe it's a surprise," Lila said. + +"Maybe it's a toy," Tom said. + +They decided to open the egg. They cracked the shell and pulled it apart. They were surprised by what they saw. + +Inside the egg was a baby bird. It was fluffy and yellow. It had a small beak and big eyes. It looked at Lila and Tom and chirped. + +"Hello, little bird," Lila said. + +"Where is your mommy?" Tom asked. + +The bird did not answer. It looked scared and lonely. Lila and Tom felt sorry for the bird. + +They decided to help the bird. They looked around and saw a big tree. They thought the bird might belong to the tree. They picked up the bird and the egg shell and walked to the tree. + +They saw a nest on a branch. They climbed the tree and put the bird and the egg shell in the nest. They hoped the bird's mommy would come back soon. + +They said goodbye to the bird and climbed down the tree. They saw Max and his owner waiting for them. They thanked them for letting them play with Max. + +They went back to their parents and told them about their adventure. They were happy and proud. They had made a new friend and helped a baby bird. They had a good day. +Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a big pile of wood near the fence. They wanted to build a house with the wood. + +"Let's take some wood and make a house," Lily said. + +"OK, but be careful. The wood is heavy and sharp," Ben said. + +They took some wood and carried it to a spot under a tree. They tried to put the wood together, but it was hard. The wood was too big and too heavy. They struggled to lift it and balance it. They hurt their hands and feet. + +"Ow, this wood is too hard. I don't like it," Lily said. + +"Me neither. Let's stop and do something else," Ben said. + +They left the wood and went to the kitchen. They saw a plate of cookies on the table. They smelled good. They wanted to eat them. + +"Let's have some cookies. They look yummy," Lily said. + +"OK, but be careful. The cookies are spicy. They have pepper in them," Ben said. + +They took some cookies and bit them. They tasted bad. They were too hot and too spicy. They burned their mouths and tongues. They spit them out and drank some water. + +"Yuck, these cookies are too spicy. I don't like them," Lily said. + +"Me neither. Let's stop and do something else," Ben said. + +They learned a lesson. They learned that some things are not good for them. They learned to be careful and listen to each other. They learned to be happy with what they have. They hugged each other and went to play with their toys. They had fun. +Anna and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They liked to run, slide, swing and climb. Mom had a camera and took many pictures of them. + +"Look, a big bird!" Ben said, pointing at the sky. He saw a white bird with a long neck and big wings. "What is it?" + +"It's a swan, Ben. It's a very pretty bird," Mom said. She lifted her camera to take a picture of the swan. + +But as she did, she tripped on a rock and dropped her camera. It fell on the grass and made a loud noise. Mom gasped and ran to pick it up. + +"Oh no, my camera! I hope it's not broken," she said, looking at the camera. She tried to turn it on, but nothing happened. She looked sad. + +Anna and Ben felt sorry for Mom. They loved her camera too. They liked to see the pictures Mom took of them and their friends. + +"Mom, don't be sad. Maybe we can fix it," Anna said, hugging Mom. + +"Yeah, Mom. Or maybe we can get a new camera. A better one," Ben said, trying to cheer Mom up. + +Mom smiled and hugged them back. "Thank you, Anna and Ben. You are very kind and brave. You always make me happy. I love you both very much." + +She kissed them on their cheeks and said, "Let's go home and see what we can do. Maybe the camera is not so bad. And even if it is, we still have our memories. And each other." + +Anna and Ben nodded and smiled. They held Mom's hands and walked home. They still had fun in the park, even without the camera. They knew Mom would always take care of them. And they would always take care of Mom. They were a happy family. +Lily liked to design things with her crayons and paper. She made pictures of flowers, animals, and houses. She also liked to give her mom massages when she was tired. She used her small hands to rub her mom's back and shoulders. + +One day, Lily wanted to surprise her mom with a special design and a massage. She took her crayons and paper and went to her room. She thought hard about what to draw. She decided to make a picture of a strong superhero who could help people and fight bad guys. She used red, blue, and yellow crayons to make the superhero's costume. She gave him a big smile and a cape. + +When she finished, she ran to the living room where her mom was sitting on the couch. She showed her mom her design and said, "Look, Mom, I made you a superhero! He is strong and brave and he loves you!" + +Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said, "Thank you, Lily, this is a wonderful design! You are very creative and kind. I love you, too!" + +Lily said, "You're welcome, Mom. Do you want a massage? I can make you feel better." + +Her mom said, "Yes, please, that would be nice. You give the best massages." + +Lily climbed on the couch and started to massage her mom's back and shoulders. She said, "I learned how to massage from you, Mom. You always massage me when I'm sleepy or sad. You make me feel better, too." + +Her mom said, "You're very sweet, Lily. You make me happy every day. You are my superhero." +One day, Tom and Lily wanted to visit their grandma, who lived in a big house on a hill. They asked their mom if they could go, and she said yes, but they had to be back before dark. She gave them some cookies and milk to take with them. + +Tom and Lily were very happy and ran to the hill. They knocked on the door and grandma opened it. She was very happy to see them and hugged them. She invited them inside and showed them her toys and books. They played and read and had a lot of fun. + +But then, they heard a loud noise outside. It was thunder. The sky was dark and angry. Tom and Lily were scared and ran to grandma. She said, "Don't worry, my dears. Thunder is just the sound of the clouds talking. They are not angry at you. They are just making rain for the flowers and the trees." + +She took them to the window and showed them the rain. She said, "Look, the rain is like a gift from the sky. It makes everything grow and shine. It is good for the earth and for us. We should be thankful for the rain and the thunder." + +Tom and Lily looked at the rain and the thunder. They felt less scared and more curious. They said, "Thank you, grandma. You are very wise and kind. We love you and the rain and the thunder." + +They hugged grandma and said goodbye. They ran back to their mom, who was waiting for them. They told her about their visit and what they learned. Mom was very proud of them and said, "You are very brave and smart. You learned a good lesson today. Thunder and rain are not bad. They are part of nature and we should respect and appreciate them." + +Tom and Lily nodded and smiled. They ate their cookies and milk and went to bed. They dreamed of grandma and the big house and the thunder and the rain. They were happy and grateful. +Tom is a boy who likes to play with his toys. He has a lot of cars, trains, and planes that he can zoom and vroom on the floor. He also has a cell that his mom gave him. It is not a real cell, but a toy one that can make sounds and light up. Tom likes to pretend that he is talking to his friends on his cell. + +One day, Tom is playing with his cell in his room. He hears his mom call him from the kitchen. She says, "Tom, it is time for lunch. Come and eat your sandwich and fruit." Tom does not want to stop playing. He says, "Mom, can I play a little more? I am talking to Sam on my cell. He is telling me a funny story." + +Mom says, "Tom, you can play later. Lunch is ready and you need to eat. You can tell Sam that you will call him back." Tom is not happy. He says, "Mom, please, please, please. Just a little more. Sam is almost done with his story. It is very long and interesting." + +Mom says, "Tom, I understand that you like your cell and your friend, but you are making a request that I cannot say yes to. You need to eat your lunch now, or it will get cold and yucky. You can finish your story after you eat. It will not go away. Now, put down your cell and come to the kitchen." + +Tom sighs. He knows that mom is right. He says, "Okay, mom. I will come. But can I bring my cell with me? Maybe Sam will wait for me." Mom says, "Yes, you can bring your cell, but you have to turn it off and put it on the table. You can turn it on again when you are done with your lunch. Deal?" Tom says, "Deal." He turns off his cell and puts it in his pocket. He runs to the kitchen and gives mom a hug. He says, "I love you, mom. And I love my cell. And I love Sam. And I love lunch." Mom smiles and says, "I love you too, Tom. And I love your cell. And I love Sam. And I love lunch. Now, let's eat." +Lily and Tom were playing in the park with their furry dog, Spot. They liked to throw a ball and watch Spot run and catch it. Sometimes Spot would bite the ball and make it squeak. + +"Good boy, Spot!" Lily said, patting his head. "You are so fast and smart!" + +Tom had a whistle in his pocket. He wanted to show Lily how loud it was. He took it out and blew it hard. The whistle made a high noise that hurt their ears. + +"Ow, Tom, that's too loud!" Lily said, covering her ears. "Stop it, please!" + +Spot did not like the noise either. He thought it was a bad sound that scared him. He ran to Tom and bit his hand. Tom dropped the whistle and cried. + +"Ow, Spot, that's not nice!" Tom said, holding his hand. "Why did you bite me?" + +Lily ran to Tom and hugged him. She was sorry that he was hurt. She picked up the whistle and threw it away. + +"Bad whistle, go away!" she said. "We don't need you!" + +Spot wagged his tail and licked Tom's hand. He was sorry that he bit him. He wanted to play with the ball again. + +"Are you okay, Tom?" Lily asked. + +Tom nodded and smiled. He was not angry at Spot. He knew he was just scared. + +"I'm okay, Lily," he said. "Let's play with the ball again. Spot likes the ball." + +They threw the ball and Spot ran and caught it. They had fun and forgot about the whistle. They were happy. +Ben and Lily are playing in the park. They see a big red truck. The truck is noisy. It makes a loud sound like "beep beep". Ben and Lily like the truck. + +"Look, Lily, a truck!" Ben says. He points his arm at the truck. "I want to see the truck. Can we go closer?" + +"OK, Ben, let's go," Lily says. She holds Ben's hand. They walk to the truck. + +The truck driver sees Ben and Lily. He smiles. He opens the door of the truck. He says, "Hello, kids. Do you like my truck?" + +"Yes, we do!" Ben and Lily say. They are happy. They want to ask the truck driver questions. + +"What is your name?" Ben asks. + +"My name is Tom," the truck driver says. + +"What do you do with your truck?" Lily asks. + +"I deliver things with my truck," the truck driver says. "I have boxes and bags in the back of my truck. Do you want to see?" + +"Yes, please!" Ben and Lily say. They are curious. They want to see what is in the truck. + +The truck driver shows them the boxes and bags. He tells them what is inside. He has toys, books, clothes, and food. Ben and Lily think the truck driver is nice. They say, "Thank you, Tom, for showing us your truck." + +"You're welcome, kids," the truck driver says. "Have fun in the park. Bye bye." + +"Bye bye, Tom," Ben and Lily say. They wave their arms. They go back to playing in the park. They are happy. They like the big red truck. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play pretend a lot. One day, they pretended to be doctors and nurses. They used their toys and stuffed animals as patients. + +"Hello, Mr. Bear. What is wrong with you?" Lily asked, holding a toy stethoscope. + +"I have a sore tummy. It hurts a lot," Ben said, making a sad voice for Mr. Bear. + +"Don't worry, Mr. Bear. I will give you some medicine and a band-aid. You will feel better soon," Lily said, pretending to pour some water into a cup and stick a band-aid on Mr. Bear's tummy. + +"Thank you, Nurse Lily. You are very compassionate," Ben said, smiling. + +They played like this for a few minutes, until Lily's mom called them for lunch. + +"Come on, kids. It's time to eat. Put away your toys and wash your hands," Lily's mom said. + +"OK, Mom. We will be right there," Lily said. + +She and Ben started to clean up their toys and put them back in the toy box. But then, Lily saw something shiny on the floor. It was a real needle that had fallen from her mom's sewing kit. + +"Wow, look at this. It's a real needle. We can use it for our pretend game," Lily said, picking it up. + +"No, Lily. That's dangerous. You can hurt yourself or someone else. Put it back where you found it," Ben said, feeling scared. + +But Lily didn't listen. She wanted to try the needle on Mr. Bear. + +"Come on, Ben. It will be fun. Let's pretend that Mr. Bear needs a shot. I will be the doctor and you will be the nurse. Hold him still," Lily said, holding the needle in her hand. + +"No, Lily. Stop. I don't want to play this game. It's not fun. It's scary. Please, put the needle down," Ben said, trying to pull Mr. Bear away from Lily. + +But Lily didn't stop. She pushed Ben away and tried to poke the needle into Mr. Bear. But she missed. The needle went into her finger instead. She screamed. Blood came out of her finger. It hurt a lot. + +Lily's mom heard the scream and ran into the room. She saw Lily crying and bleeding. She saw the needle on the floor. She saw Ben shaking and crying too. + +She was very angry and very scared. She grabbed Lily and took her to the bathroom. She washed her finger and wrapped it in a cloth. She called the doctor and told him what happened. She said they had to go to the hospital right away. + +She looked at Ben and said, "You are in big trouble, young man. How could you let Lily play with a needle? You know better than that. You are not her friend. You are a bad boy. You are not allowed to play with Lily ever again. Go home and tell your mom what you did." + +Ben felt very sad and very sorry. He didn't mean to let Lily play with the needle. He tried to stop her. He wanted to be her friend. He wanted to say sorry to Lily and her mom. But they didn't listen. They didn't care. They left him alone in the room. He picked up Mr. Bear and hugged him. He wished he could go back in time and change everything. He wished he could play pretend with Lily again. But he couldn't. It was too late. He had lost his best friend. He had lost his game. He had lost his fun. He had a bad ending. +Ben and Lily were playing with their toys in the backyard. Ben had a big red truck that he liked to drive on the grass. Lily had a small pink doll that she liked to hug and talk to. They were having fun until Ben saw something that made him angry. + +"Hey, that's my truck!" he shouted. He saw a big black dog running away with his truck in its mouth. The dog had jumped over the fence and stolen his truck. Ben ran after the dog, but it was too fast for him. + +"Ben, wait!" Lily called. She was worried about her brother. She picked up her doll and followed him. She saw the dog running into the woods with the truck. She saw Ben running after the dog. She ran after Ben. + +"Give me back my truck!" Ben yelled at the dog. He threw a stick at it, but he missed. The dog kept running with the truck. It looked like it wanted to eat the truck. Maybe it thought the truck was tasty. + +"Ben, stop!" Lily said. She caught up with him. She saw that they were in a dark and scary part of the woods. She saw spiders and snakes and thorns. She was afraid. "We can't go any further. It's too dangerous. Let's go back home." + +"But I want my truck!" Ben said. He was sad and angry. He loved his truck. He didn't want to lose it. + +"I know, Ben. I'm sorry. But the truck is gone. The dog took it. Maybe we can find another truck. Or maybe we can play with something else. Come on, let's go back home. Mom and Dad will be worried about us." Lily said. She hugged her brother and her doll. She tried to make him feel better. + +Ben looked at his sister. He saw that she was right. He saw that the woods were scary. He saw that the dog was gone. He saw that he had nothing to play with. He felt sorry for himself. But he also felt sorry for his sister. She was trying to help him. She was being nice to him. He decided to listen to her. + +"Okay, Lily. Let's go back home." he said. He hugged his sister back. He forgot about his truck for a while. He remembered that he had his sister. He thought that she was more important than his truck. He thought that she was his best friend. He smiled at her. She smiled back. They held hands and walked back home. +Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They saw many flowers and bugs. Lily liked the yellow flowers. She picked one and smelled it. It was a daisy. + +"Look, Tom, I have a daisy. It is pretty and smells good. Do you want one?" Lily asked. + +Tom nodded. He liked the yellow flowers too. He picked one and smelled it. It was a daisy. + +"Let's try to eat them. Maybe they taste good too," Tom said. + +Lily and Tom put the daisies in their mouths. They bit them and chewed them. But the daisies did not taste good. They tasted sour and bitter. Lily and Tom made faces and spat them out. + +"Yuck, yuck, yuck! The daisies are sour. They are not good to eat. They hurt my tongue and teeth," Lily said. + +"Me too, me too. The daisies are sour. They are not good to eat. They make me feel sick," Tom said. + +Lily and Tom threw the daisies away. They ran to the house. They wanted to drink some water and eat some cookies. But when they got to the house, they saw their mom. She was angry. She saw the daisies on the ground and in their mouths. + +"Lily and Tom, what did you do? You ate the daisies? You know you are not supposed to eat flowers. They are not food. They can make you sick. You are in big trouble. Go to your room. No water, no cookies, no play," Mom said. + +Lily and Tom cried. They were sorry. They did not know the daisies were sour and bad. They did not mean to make Mom angry. They went to their room. They felt sad and sick. They wished they never tried to eat the daisies. The end. +Tom and Lily were twins who lived in a modest house in a valley. They liked to play outside and enjoy the sun, the grass and the flowers. Sometimes they saw animals like rabbits, birds and cows. They were happy and curious. + +One day, they decided to explore a new part of the valley. They walked along a path that led to a big hill. They wanted to see what was on the other side. They climbed and climbed until they reached the top. They saw a beautiful lake that sparkled like a jewel. They were amazed and excited. + +They ran down the hill to the lake. They wanted to touch the water and see the fish. They did not notice a sign that said "Danger! Deep water! No swimming!" They did not know how to swim. They only knew how to splash and kick. + +They reached the edge of the lake and jumped in. They felt the water was cold and wet. They tried to splash and kick, but they could not stay afloat. They started to sink and panic. They cried for help, but no one heard them. + +A man who lived near the lake saw them. He was a fisherman who knew the lake well. He had a boat and a net. He quickly rowed to them and threw the net. He caught them and pulled them out. He was angry and scared. He scolded them for being foolish and careless. He told them to never go near the lake again. + +Tom and Lily were sorry and ashamed. They thanked the man for saving them. They learned a lesson that day. They realized that the valley was not always safe and fun. They promised to be more careful and listen to the signs. They hugged each other and went back to their modest house. They still enjoyed the valley, but they never forgot the lake. +Anna and Ben like winter. They like to play in the snow. They make snowmen and snowballs. They slide on the ice. They have fun. + +One day, they see a big hill. It is covered with snow. They want to go up the hill. They take their sleds. They pull their sleds up the hill. It is hard work. They are tired. + +They reach the top of the hill. They look down. They see a long way to slide. They are excited. They sit on their sleds. They push off. They go fast. They feel the wind. They laugh. + +They slide down the hill. They pass trees and rocks. They steer their sleds. They try not to crash. They have more fun. + +They reach the bottom of the hill. They stop. They are happy. They look up. They see the big hill. They want to go up again. They smile. They pull their sleds up the hill. They are ready for another slide. They love winter. +Lila liked to make things with thread. She had many colors of thread and a big needle. She made hats and scarves and dolls for her friends. She was very original and creative. + +One day, Lila found a new color of thread in her box. It was shiny and sparkly and purple. She had never seen it before. She wanted to make something special with it. She thought of a necklace for her mom. She started to make the necklace with the shiny thread. + +But then, her brother Max came into her room. He saw the shiny thread and wanted it. He grabbed it from Lila's hand. Lila was angry and sad. She shouted at Max and tried to get the thread back. Max ran away with the thread. Lila chased him. + +They ran around the house, fighting over the thread. They knocked over lamps and chairs and books. Their mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw them running and yelling and pulling the thread. She was not happy. + +She stopped them and took the thread from them. She slapped their hands and scolded them. She told them to share and be nice. She asked them why they wanted the thread so much. Lila said she wanted to make a necklace for her mom. Max said he wanted to make a bracelet for himself. + +Their mom smiled and hugged them. She said they were both original and creative. She said she had a surprise for them. She showed them the thread. It was not just one color. It was many colors twisted together. It was a rainbow thread. She said she had bought it for them to make something together. She said they could make a necklace and a bracelet and anything else they wanted. She gave them the thread and a big needle. She said she loved them. + +Lila and Max said they were sorry and they loved her too. They thanked her for the thread. They decided to make something together. They shared and helped each other. They made a necklace for their mom and a bracelet for Max and a hat for Lila. They used all the colors of the rainbow. They were very original and creative. They were happy. +Sara and Ben like to play in the garden. They have a big gate that they can open and close. Sometimes they pretend the gate is a castle or a spaceship or a zoo. + +One day, they find a purple box behind the gate. They wonder what is inside. They open the box and see many things. They see crayons and paper and stickers and glue. They see balls and cars and dolls and books. They see hats and scarves and gloves and socks. + +"Wow!" Sara says. "This is a supply box. Someone gave us a supply of fun things to play with." + +"Who do you think gave us the box?" Ben asks. + +"I don't know," Sara says. "Maybe it was a fairy or a wizard or a giant." + +They decide to say thank you to whoever gave them the box. They use the crayons and paper to make a big card. They write "Thank you for the supply box" and draw pictures of the things they like. They stick the card on the gate with glue. + +Then they have fun playing with the supply box. They make hats and scarves and gloves and socks with the stickers and glue. They draw and color with the crayons and paper. They read and play with the books and toys. They have a great time. + +They hope the fairy or the wizard or the giant will see their card and be happy. They also hope they will get another supply box someday. They love the purple box and the gate and the garden. +Anna and Ben are in the car with Mom and Dad. They are going to the park to play. Anna likes the park. It has swings and slides and a big sandbox. Ben likes the park too. He likes to run and chase the birds and the squirrels. + +On the way to the park, they see a big sign on the road. It has a picture of a clown and some balloons. It says "Come to the circus! Fun for everyone!" Anna and Ben point at the sign and say "Look, Mom, look, Dad! Can we go to the circus?" + +Mom and Dad smile and say "Maybe, maybe. We'll see. The circus is only here for a few days. Do you like the circus?" + +Anna and Ben nod and say "Yes, yes, we like the circus! We want to see the animals and the tricks and the clowns! Please, please, can we go?" + +Mom and Dad say "We'll think about it. But first, we have to go to the park. The park is fun too, right?" + +Anna and Ben say "Yes, the park is fun too. But the circus is more fun!" + +They get to the park and get out of the car. The park is clean and green and sunny. There are many other children and parents there. Anna and Ben run to the swings and the slides and the sandbox. They have a lot of fun. They forget about the circus for a while. + +But then, they hear a loud noise. It sounds like a horn. They look up and see a big truck with a trailer. The trailer has a picture of a lion and a tiger and a bear. It says "Circus animals! Do not touch!" The truck is going to the circus. Anna and Ben remember the sign and the clown and the balloons. They want to go to the circus. They run to Mom and Dad and say "Look, look, the circus animals! Can we go to the circus now?

Then she would wait for the machine to beep and move the wet clothes to the other machine that made them dry and warm. + +One day, Sara wanted to surprise Mom and do the laundry by herself. She looked for dirty clothes in the rooms and found a lot of them. She also found some other things that looked dirty, like a pillow, a teddy bear, a book and a crayon. She thought Mom would be happy if she washed them too. + +She loaded everything into the big machine and pushed the buttons. She did not know that some things should not go in the machine. The pillow got too big and broke. The teddy bear lost an eye and some fur. The book got wet and ripped. The crayon melted and made colors on everything. + +When the machine beeped, Sara opened the door and saw the terrible mess. She felt sad and scared. She did not know how to fix it. She heard Mom coming and started to cry. + +Mom saw Sara and the laundry and understood what happened. She hugged Sara and said, "It's okay, honey. You tried to help, but you made a mistake.

They did not want to play with it anymore. + +They found their mom and dad, who were looking for them. They told them what happened. + +"Tom and Sam, you were very lucky.

We thought it was harmless," Tom and Sam said. + +Their mom hugged them and said, "I know, my loves. But you have to be careful in the woods. There are many things that can be dangerous.

Do you want to hear it?" + +Sam comes over and sees the record. He is curious. He says, "What is that? It is not a toy. It is dad's thing. He uses it to make food. You should not put it on the grill. It will get hot and melt." + +Ben does not listen. He says, "No, it is my toy. I can do what I want. It is fun. Go away, Sam. You are mean." + +Sam gets angry. He says, "No, you go away. You are silly. You are ruining the record. It is not yours. It is dad's. He will be mad at you. Give it to me." + +Ben and Sam start to fight. They pull and push each other. They yell and cry.

She took the note and showed it to Ben. "Look, Ben. This is the dog's note. He is not a bad dog. He is just lost and wants to play. Maybe we can help him find his home." + +Ben was still angry. He wanted his ball back. He did not care about the dog. He said: "No, Lily. I don't want to help him. He stole our ball. He is a bad dog. Let's go and tell mom." + +Lily was worried. She did not want to leave the dog alone. She said: "Please, Ben. Let's try to be kind. Maybe the dog is sad too. Maybe he misses his family.

But how?" + +Lily said: "Let's call the number on the note. Maybe the dog's family will come and get him. And maybe they will thank us and give us a new ball." + +Ben agreed.

She wanted to taste the pastry. She climbed on a chair and reached for it. + +"Stop, Lily! You will make a mess!" Ben shouted. + +But it was too late. Lily grabbed the pastry and pulled. It was heavy and sticky. It did not fit in her hand. It fell on the floor and broke into pieces. + +"Oh no!" Lily cried. + +Mom heard the noise and came into the kitchen. She saw the pastry on the floor and the twins on the chair. + +"What happened here?" Mom asked. + +"I'm sorry, Mom. Lily wanted to eat the pastry. I told her not to, but she did not listen," Ben said. + +Mom was angry and sad. She had spent a lot of time making the pastry for Grandma. She did not allow the twins to play in the kitchen anymore. She sent them to their room without any snack. + +"Maybe we can make another pastry for Grandma," Lily said. + +"Maybe, but we have to say sorry to Mom first," Ben said. + +They hugged each other and hoped Mom would forgive them. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pond with ducks and fish. Anna wants to feed the ducks. Ben wants to catch a fish. + +"Can we go to the pond, Mommy?" Anna asks. + +"OK, but you have to promise me something," Mommy says. "You have to stay away from the water. It is deep and wet. You can get hurt." + +Anna and Ben nod and promise. They run to the pond with some bread and a net. They see the ducks and the fish. They are happy. + +Anna throws some bread to the ducks. The ducks come closer and quack. Anna laughs and throws more bread. Ben sees a big fish in the water. He wants to catch it. He forgets his promise. He leans over the pond with his net. + +"Ben, no!" Anna shouts. "You promised Mommy!" + +But Ben does not listen. He reaches for the fish. He slips and falls into the pond. He is wet and scared. He cries for help. + +Anna screams and runs to Mommy. Mommy hears her and runs to the pond. She sees Ben in the water. She jumps in and grabs him. She pulls him out. He is wet and cold. He is sorry. + +Mommy is angry and sad.

They wish they kept their promise. +One day, a little girl named Lily and her big brother Max went to visit a palace. They liked to see the big rooms, the shiny things, and the pretty paintings. But they also liked to play and have fun. + +"Let's pretend we are kings and queens," Max said. "We can wear these crowns and sit on these chairs." + +"OK," Lily said. "But don't touch anything else. Mom said it is dangerous." + +They put on the crowns and sat on the chairs. They felt very important and happy. They laughed and talked. + +"Hello, Queen Lily," Max said. "How are you today?" + +"I am very good, King Max," Lily said. "But I am a little hungry. Can we have some cake?" + +"Of course," Max said. "But we have to be careful. There might be some bad people who want to take our cake." + +They looked around and saw a big door. They wondered what was behind it. + +"Let's go and see," Max said. "Maybe there is a secret room with more cake." + +"OK," Lily said. "But we have to be quiet. Mom said it is dangerous." + +They got up and walked to the door. They opened it slowly and peeked inside. They saw a big table with lots of food. There was cake, and cookies, and fruit, and candy. They also saw some people dressed in funny clothes. They had masks, and swords, and feathers. + +"Wow," Max said. "Look at all the food. And the people. They look like they are having a party." + +"Let's join them," Lily said. "Maybe they will share their food with us." + +They ran to the table and grabbed some cake. They did not notice that the people were not happy. They were angry. They were not having a party. They were planning to rob the palace. + +"Hey, who are you?" one of them shouted. "What are you doing here?" + +"Uh-oh," Max said. "We are in trouble. These are the bad people. They want to take our cake. And our crowns. And everything else." + +"Run, Lily, run!" he said. "We have to get out of here. Mom said it is dangerous." + +They dropped the cake and ran to the door. They saw their mom waiting for them. She looked worried and angry. + +"Lily, Max, where have you been?" she said. "I told you not to go anywhere. This is a dangerous place. There are bad people here. They want to hurt us." + +"Sorry, Mom," Lily said. "We were just playing. We wanted some cake." + +"We found some cake," Max said. "But the bad people wanted it too. They chased us. They were scary." + +Mom hugged them and said, "I'm glad you are safe. But you have to listen to me. This is not a place to play. This is a place to be careful. Do you understand?" + +"Yes, Mom," Lily and Max said. "We understand." + +They left the palace and went home. They learned their lesson. They never went to a dangerous place again. They only played in safe places. And they always listened to their mom. +Tom is a boy who likes to do many things. He likes to read books, play games, and draw pictures. He is very intelligent and knows many words and facts. But he also likes to have fun and run outside. + +One day, Tom's mom says, "Let's go to the park, Tom. You can play with your friends and see the animals." Tom is happy and puts on his shoes and coat. He takes his ball and his book with him. He says, "Thank you, mom. I love the park." + +At the park, Tom sees his friends, Anna and Ben. They are playing on the swings and the slide. Tom joins them and they have a good time. They laugh and shout and swing high.

They say quack quack." + +Anna and Ben are amazed by Tom's knowledge. They say, "Wow, Tom, you are so intelligent. You know so much about ducks. How do you know that?" Tom says, "I read it in my book. I like to learn new things. Do you want to see my book?" Anna and Ben say, "Yes, please. We want to learn too." + +Tom shows them his book and they sit on a bench. They look at the pictures and read the words. They learn about different animals and their habitats. They have fun and feel smart. They say, "Thank you, Tom. You are a good friend. You share your book and your knowledge with us. We like to do things with you." Tom says, "You are welcome. You are good friends too. You play and listen with me. I like to do things with you too." They smile and hug and go back to play. They have a wonderful day at the park. +Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had many toys, but their favorite was the big box of cubes. They liked to build towers and houses and cars with the cubes. They also liked to knock them down and make loud noises. + +One day, they noticed a new cube in the box. It was not like the other cubes. It was brown and shiny and smelled good. Lily picked it up and showed it to Ben. + +"Look, Ben, a new cube!" she said. + +"What is it?" Ben asked. + +"I don't know. Maybe it's a special cube. Maybe it has a surprise inside," Lily said. + +She tried to open the cube, but it was hard and solid. She bit the cube, and it was soft and sweet. She liked the taste. + +"Mmm, this cube is tasty!" she said. + +"Let me try!" Ben said. + +He took the cube from Lily and bit it too. He also liked the taste. + +"Wow, this cube is tasty!" he said. + +They ate the cube together, and it made them happy. They did not know that the cube was really a chocolate bar that their mom had hidden in the box for a treat. They did not know that their mom was watching them from the kitchen and smiling. They did not know that their mom had more chocolate bars for them if they were good. They only knew that they had found a new and tasty cube, and that they had shared it with each other. +Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big bear in a cage. The bear looked sad and lonely. + +"Hello, bear!" Lily said. "Do you want to be our friend?" + +The bear did not answer. He just lay on the ground and sighed. + +Tom had an idea. He ran to the ice cream truck and bought a cone. He came back and gave it to the bear. + +"Here, bear. This is for you. It is cold and sweet and yummy." + +The bear looked at the cone.

She said, "But I love spaghetti. I don't want to give it to anyone. It's mine." She hugged her plate and turned away from Ben and his mom. + +Ben's mom said, "Lisa, you are being selfish.

Tom and Lily did not listen. They said, "We don't want to tidy. We want to play. We want a snack now." + +They ran to the kitchen and grabbed some cookies and milk. They did not ask mom. They did not say thank you. They went back to their room and ate their snack on their bed. They did not care about the crumbs and the spills. + +They saw their rocking horse and decided to ride it. They took turns to rock on it, faster and faster. They did not notice that the rocking horse was near the window. They did not hear mom calling them to stop. + +Suddenly, the rocking horse tipped over and crashed through the window. Tom and Lily fell out with it. They screamed and cried. They hurt themselves and broke the rocking horse. Mom heard the noise and ran to see what happened. She was shocked and scared. She called for help. + +Tom and Lily learned a hard lesson. They should have listened to mom and tidied their room. They should have asked for a snack and said thank you. They should have been careful with their toys and their window. They were sorry, but it was too late. + +The moral of the story is: Be obedient, be grateful, and be safe. +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to go to the park with Mom and Dad. The park has a big slide, a swing, and a train. The train is Lily's favorite. She likes to sit in the front and pretend to drive. + +One day, Mom and Dad buy tickets for the train. They give one to Lily and one to Ben. Lily is happy. She runs to the train and climbs in. But Ben is not happy. He does not want to ride the train. He wants to play on the slide. + +Ben tries to give his ticket to Mom. But Mom says no. She says he has to ride the train with Lily. Ben does not like that. He starts to cry. He struggles to get away from Mom. He kicks and screams. + +Mom is sad. She does not want Ben to be unhappy. She tries to calm him down. She tells him the train is fun. She tells him he can play on the slide later. She tells him Lily will be lonely without him. + +Ben looks at Lily. She is smiling and waving at him. She looks playful. She wants him to join her. Ben thinks for a moment. He does not want to make Lily sad. He does not want to miss the train. He wipes his tears and takes his ticket. He follows Mom to the train. He sits next to Lily. He gives her a hug. + +Lily and Ben ride the train together. They have fun. They see the trees, the flowers, and the birds. They laugh and sing. Mom and Dad are happy. They take pictures of them. They are proud of Ben for being brave. They are proud of Lily for being kind. They love their twins. +Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play outside in the fall. They see many leaves on the ground. They are red, yellow, and brown. They are pretty, but they make the yard messy. + +"Let's rake the leaves and make a big pile," Tim says. He grabs a rake and starts to work. Sam is not sure. He thinks raking is hard and boring. He wants to do something else. + +"Come on, Sam, it will be fun," Tim encourages him. "We can jump in the pile when we are done. And maybe Mom will give us a treat." + +Sam thinks about it. He likes to jump and he likes treats. He decides to help Tim. He grabs another rake and joins him. They work together and make a big pile of leaves. + +"Wow, look at our pile! It's so big and wild!" Tim says. He drops his rake and runs to the pile. He jumps in and laughs. Sam follows him. He jumps in and laughs too. They have a lot of fun in the leaves. They feel happy and proud. + +Mom sees them from the window. She smiles and claps. She is proud of them too. She goes to the kitchen and makes some cookies. She brings them outside and gives them to Tim and Sam. + +"Good job, boys! You worked hard and made the yard clean. You deserve a treat. Here are some cookies for you," she says. + +"Thank you, Mom! You are the best!" Tim and Sam say. They hug her and eat the cookies. They are yummy and warm. They share some with the leaves. They are their friends now. +Ben and Mia were on a big boat with their dad. The boat was called a yacht. It was white and shiny and had a big sail. Ben and Mia liked to look at the water and the fish and the birds. + +One day, the sky became dark and the wind became strong. The water became rough and the yacht began to rock. Ben and Mia felt scared. They held on to their dad and each other. + +"Dad, what is happening?" Mia asked. + +"We are in a storm, sweetie. But don't worry, we will be okay. We just have to twist the sail and steer the yacht to a safe place." Dad said. + +He went to the front of the yacht and pulled a rope. The sail twisted and changed shape. He then went to the back of the yacht and turned a wheel. The yacht moved in a different direction. + +Ben and Mia watched their dad. They hoped he could make the storm go away. They saw big waves and flashes of light and heard loud noises. They felt cold and wet. + +"Dad, I don't like this. I want to go home." Ben said. + +"I know, buddy. Me too. But we have to be brave and strong. The storm will not last forever. Look, there is some land ahead. We can go there and wait for the storm to pass." Dad said. + +He pointed to a small island with some trees and rocks. He steered the yacht towards it. The waves became smaller and the wind became weaker. The yacht reached the shore and stopped. Dad tied the rope to a rock and helped Ben and Mia get off the yacht. + +They ran to the trees and found a dry spot. They hugged each other and smiled. + +"We did it! We are safe!" Mia said. + +"Yes, we are. And the yacht is safe too. We are very lucky." Dad said. + +They looked at the sky and saw some blue and some sun. The storm was over. They felt warm and happy. + +They thanked the yacht for taking them to the island. They decided to explore and have some fun. They hoped to see some animals and find some food. They knew they would go home soon. They loved their dad and their yacht and their adventure. +Anna loves the sea. She likes to play in the sand and watch the waves. Sometimes she sees people surf on the water. They stand on big boards and glide fast. Anna wants to try surf too. + +One day, Anna goes to the beach with her mom. She sees a girl with a surf board. The girl is deaf. She cannot hear sounds. She has a special device in her ear. Anna is curious. She walks to the girl and says hello. + +The girl smiles and waves. She points to her ear and shakes her head. She shows Anna her device. She says with her hands, "I am deaf. This helps me hear a little. What is your name?" + +Anna says her name and points to herself. She says with her hands, "I am Anna. I like surf. Can you teach me?" + +The girl nods and says with her hands, "I am Mia. I like surf too. Come with me. I will show you how." + +Anna and Mia become friends. They surf together and have fun. They talk with their hands and their eyes. They do not need words to understand each other. They are happy. +Tom and Amy like to play with clay. They make different shapes and animals with their hands. One day, they find a big book with pictures of bones and skulls. They think they look cool and scary. + +"Let's make a skull with clay!" Tom says to Amy. + +"OK, but how?" Amy asks. + +Tom opens the book and points to a page. "We can use this as a guide. See, it has a round part, and two holes for eyes, and a long part for the mouth." + +They take some clay and try to copy the picture. They roll, pinch, and press the clay. But it is difficult. The clay does not stay in the shape they want. It is too soft or too hard. The eyes are too big or too small. The mouth is too wide or too narrow. + +They try again and again, but they are not happy with their skulls. They look at each other and sigh. + +"This is too hard. Let's make something else." Amy says. + +"OK, what do you want to make?" Tom asks. + +Amy thinks for a moment. Then she smiles. + +"How about a flower? That is easy and pretty." + +Tom nods. "OK, let's make a flower. That sounds fun." + +They put away the book and the clay skulls. They take some new clay and make a flower. They give it petals, a stem, and a leaf. They are proud of their design. They show it to their mom and dad. They say it is beautiful and they love it. + +Tom and Amy are happy. They hug each other and say: + +"Flowers are better than skulls." +Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the forest. They see many animals there. They are not afraid of them. + +One day, they see a hunter. He has a big gun. He wants to shoot the animals. Lila and Ben are angry. They want to stop him. + +They hide behind a tree. They wait for the hunter to come near. They have a plan. They want to joke with him. + +When the hunter is close, they jump out. They shout, "Boo!" The hunter is scared. He drops his gun. He runs away. + +Lila and Ben laugh. They pick up the gun. They throw it in the river. They say, "Bye-bye, stupid hunter!" + +They hug each other. They are happy. They saved the animals. They are heroes. +Lily loved waffles. She liked to eat them with butter and honey. Every morning, her mom made her a waffle for breakfast. Lily was happy. + +One day, Lily went to the park with her mom. She saw a lot of people and animals. She saw dogs, birds, squirrels, and children. She also saw an elderly man. He had white hair and a long beard. He was sitting on a bench. He had a bag with him. + +Lily was curious. She walked to the man. She said hello. The man smiled. He opened his bag. He took out a waffle. He broke it in half. He gave one half to Lily. He said, "Do you like waffles?" + +Lily was surprised. She recognized the waffle. It looked like the one her mom made. She nodded. She said, "Yes, I do. Thank you." + +The man said, "You're welcome. I like waffles too. They are my favorite. I make them every day. I have no one to share them with. Would you like to be my friend?" + +Lily smiled. She liked the man. He was kind and generous. She said, "Yes, I would. What is your name?" + +The man said, "My name is George. What is yours?" + +Lily said, "My name is Lily. Nice to meet you, George." + +They ate their waffles together. They talked and laughed. They became friends. Lily was happy. George was happy. They both loved waffles. +Lily was shy. She did not like to talk to other kids at school. She liked to play with her dolls and books at home. But she had to go to school every day. She had to learn math and other things. + +One day, her teacher gave her a math problem. She had to add two and two. She knew the answer was four, but she was afraid to say it. She thought the other kids would laugh at her. She looked at her paper and did not say anything. + +"Can you tell me the answer, Lily?" the teacher asked. She smiled at Lily and waited. + +Lily felt her face get hot. She wanted to hide under her desk. She did not want to talk. + +Then, she heard a voice next to her. It was Ben, a boy who sat next to her. He was not shy. He liked to talk and play with everyone. + +"Hey, Lily, I know the answer. It's four. Do you want to say it with me?" he whispered. He held up four fingers and smiled at Lily. + +Lily looked at Ben. He was nice. He did not laugh at her. He wanted to help her. She felt a little less shy. She nodded and held up four fingers too. + +"Four!" they said together. + +The teacher clapped her hands. "Very good, Lily and Ben! You are both smart and kind. You can be friends and help each other with math and other things." + +Lily smiled. She felt happy. She had a friend. She liked math. She wondered what else would happen at school. +Tom and Anna like to go to the library with Mom. They can find many books with pictures and stories. They can also play with toys and puzzles. Mom says they have to be quiet in the library, because other people are reading. + +One day, they go to the library and see a big bird outside. It is lying on the ground and not moving. Tom and Anna are curious. They run to the bird and touch it. It is cold and stiff. + +"Mom, look at the bird!" Tom says. "Is it sleeping?" + +Mom comes over and sees the bird. She pauses and looks sad. She kneels down and hugs Tom and Anna. + +"No, sweeties, the bird is not sleeping. It is dead. That means it stopped living and breathing. It can't fly or sing anymore." + +"Why is it dead, Mom?" Anna asks. "Did it get hurt?" + +Mom shakes her head. "I don't know, honey. Sometimes birds die of old age, or sickness, or accidents. It is part of nature. But we can be gentle and respectful to the bird. We can say goodbye and thank it for being a beautiful creature." + +Tom and Anna nod. They say goodbye to the bird and stroke its feathers. Mom finds a shovel and digs a hole in the grass. She puts the bird in the hole and covers it with dirt. She makes a cross with two sticks and puts it on top. + +"Rest in peace, bird," Mom says. "We will remember you." + +Tom and Anna smile and hold Mom's hand. They go back to the library and find a book about birds. They learn about different kinds of birds and how they live. They also learn to appreciate life and nature. They are happy and smart. +Lila was a furry cat who liked to play with anything that moved. One day, she saw a big white envelope on the table. She jumped on the table and tried to catch the envelope with her paws. But the envelope was not easy to catch. It was light and thin, and it moved with the wind. + +"Whoosh!" The envelope flew off the table and into the air. Lila ran after it, but it was too fast for her. She saw it fly out of the window and into the sky. She was sad and angry. She wanted to play with the envelope. + +"Meow!" She cried. "Come back, envelope! You are mine!" + +But the envelope did not come back. It flew higher and higher, until it was a tiny dot in the blue. Lila could not see it anymore. She felt lonely and bored. + +Then she heard a voice behind her. It was her friend, Max, a furry dog who lived next door. He had seen the envelope fly away, and he had come to cheer her up. + +"Hi, Lila!" He said. "Do you want to play with me? I have a ball. It is round and red, and it does not fly away. It bounces and rolls, and it is fun to chase." + +Lila looked at Max and his ball. She smiled. She liked Max and his ball. They were nice and friendly. She forgot about the envelope. + +"Okay, Max!" She said. "Let's play with your ball. It is better than the envelope. Thank you for being my friend." + +They ran off together, happy and playful. They did not see the envelope again. But they did not care. They had each other, and they had the ball. And that was enough. +Anna loved to play with her velvet doll. She liked to brush her hair, dress her up, and talk to her. She named her doll Lily, because she had a flower on her dress. + +One day, Anna and Lily went to the park with Mommy. They saw a big slide, a swing, and a sandbox. Anna wanted to try them all, but she did not want to leave Lily alone. She asked Mommy, "Can I take Lily with me?" + +Mommy smiled and said, "Of course, sweetie. But be careful with her. She is very soft and pretty. You don't want to make her dirty or tear her dress." + +Anna nodded and hugged Lily. She said, "Don't worry, Mommy. I will take good care of Lily. She is my best friend." + +Anna and Lily had a lot of fun at the park. They slid down the slide, swung on the swing, and made a castle in the sandbox. Lily was very brave and happy. She liked to see the sky, the trees, and the birds. + +But then, Anna saw a big dog running towards them. The dog was barking and wagging his tail. He wanted to play, too. Anna was scared. She did not like big dogs. She thought they might bite or scratch. She grabbed Lily and ran to Mommy. + +Mommy saw Anna and the dog. She called the dog's owner and asked him to leash his dog. She said, "I'm sorry, but my daughter is afraid of dogs. Please keep your dog away from her." + +The dog's owner apologized and said, "I'm sorry, too. My dog is very friendly, but he is also very curious. He just wanted to say hello to your daughter and her doll." + +Mommy thanked him and hugged Anna. She said, "It's okay, honey. The dog did not mean to scare you. He was just being playful. But I'm proud of you for protecting Lily. You are a good friend to her." + +Anna smiled and looked at Lily. She saw that Lily's dress was dirty and wrinkled from the sand and the run. She felt sorry for Lily. She said, "I'm sorry, Lily. Your dress is not pretty anymore. I will make it pretty again." + +Anna took Lily to a bench and folded her dress. She tried to smooth out the wrinkles and the dirt. She said, "There, Lily. Now your dress is better. You are still very soft and pretty. You are a graceful doll." +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the garden. One day, they saw a big lemon tree with many yellow fruits. They wanted to try them, so they picked some lemons and ran to the kitchen. + +"Look, Mom, we have lemons!" Lily said, holding up a lemon. + +"Wow, that's great, my loves. Do you know what you can do with lemons?" Mom asked. + +"No, what can we do?" Ben asked. + +"You can make lemonade, a yummy drink. You need some water, some sugar, and some lemons. Do you want to help me?" Mom said. + +"Yes, yes, yes!" Lily and Ben said. + +They followed Mom to the table, where she had a big pitcher, a knife, a spoon, and a bowl. Mom cut the lemons in half and gave one to each child. She told them to squeeze the lemons into the bowl. + +Lily and Ben squeezed hard, but the juice squirted into their eyes and mouths. They made funny faces and cried out. + +"Ow, ow, ow! The lemons are bitter!" Lily said. + +"Yuck, yuck, yuck! The lemons are sour!" Ben said. + +Mom laughed and hugged them. She said, "Don't worry, my loves. The lemons are bitter and sour, but when you add some water and some sugar, they become sweet and refreshing. Trust me, you will like it." + +She poured some water and some sugar into the pitcher and stirred. Then she added the lemon juice and stirred again. She poured some lemonade into three cups and gave one to each child. + +Lily and Ben took a sip and smiled. They liked the lemonade. It was cold and tasty. + +"Wow, Mom, you are right. The lemonade is good!" Lily said. + +"Thank you, Mom, for teaching us how to make lemonade!" Ben said. + +Mom smiled and said, "You are welcome, my loves. I'm glad you enjoyed it. You can spend the rest of the day playing in the garden, but don't forget to drink some more lemonade. It will keep you cool and happy." +Tommy and Lily were playing in the living room. They had many toys, but they both wanted the same pencil. The pencil was red and shiny, and it had a funny eraser on the top. + +"Give me the pencil!" Tommy said. He tried to grab the pencil from Lily's hand. + +"No, it's mine!" Lily said. She held the pencil tight and moved away from Tommy. + +Tommy was angry. He ran after Lily and pushed her. Lily fell down and started to cry. + +"Tommy, that's naughty!" Mommy said. She came into the living room and saw what happened. She picked up Lily and hugged her. "Are you okay, sweetie?" + +Lily nodded, but she still sobbed. She showed Mommy the pencil. "Tommy wanted my pencil. He was mean to me." + +Mommy looked at Tommy. He was sulking on the floor. "Tommy, you need to say sorry to Lily. You can't take things that are not yours. And you can't push your sister. That's not nice." + +"But I want the pencil!" Tommy said. He insisted on having the pencil. He did not want to say sorry. + +Mommy shook her head. She was not happy with Tommy. "You can't have the pencil, Tommy. It belongs to Lily. She was playing with it first. You have to share and be kind. If you don't say sorry, you will go to your room." + +Tommy did not like his room. He wanted to stay and play. He looked at Lily and the pencil. He did not want to make Mommy more angry. He decided to say sorry. + +"I'm sorry, Lily," Tommy said. He got up and walked to Lily and Mommy. "Can I play with you?" + +Lily smiled. She was not mad at Tommy anymore. She liked to play with her brother. She gave him the pencil. "Okay, Tommy. You can play with me. But you have to be gentle." + +Tommy took the pencil. He was happy. He thanked Lily and hugged her. "Thank you, Lily. I love you." + +Mommy smiled too. She was proud of Tommy and Lily. She kissed them both. "I love you too, my darlings. Now, let's play nicely together." +Lily and Ben were playing in the living room. They had many toys and cushions to make a fort. They pretended they were knights and princesses. Lily was the princess and Ben was the knight. They had fun. + +But then, Ben had a foolish idea. He wanted to climb on the sofa and jump on the cushions. He thought it would be fun. He did not listen to Lily, who said it was dangerous. He said he was brave and strong. + +He climbed on the sofa and jumped. But he jumped too far and missed the cushions. He fell on the floor and hurt his arm. He cried out loud. Lily ran to him and hugged him. She said, "Are you okay, Ben? You were foolish. You could have broken your arm." + +Ben was sorry and ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was foolish. I wanted to have fun, but I was not careful. It hurts a lot." Lily said, "Don't worry, Ben. I will rescue you. I will get Mommy and she will make it better." + +She ran to the kitchen and called Mommy. Mommy came and saw Ben on the floor. She said, "What happened, Ben? Why are you crying?" Lily said, "Ben was foolish. He jumped from the sofa and missed the cushions. He hurt his arm. I rescued him and brought you." Mommy said, "Oh, Ben. You were foolish. You should not jump from the sofa. It is dangerous. Let me see your arm." + +She looked at his arm and saw it was bruised. She said, "It is not broken, but it is sore. I will put some ice on it and give you a kiss. Then you will feel better." She did that and Ben felt better. He said, "Thank you, Mommy. Thank you, Lily. You are both very kind. I will not be foolish again. I will be careful and play safely." Mommy said, "That's good, Ben. I'm glad you learned your lesson. Now, why don't you and Lily play with the cushions on the floor? They are soft and cozy." Lily and Ben said, "Okay, Mommy. We will do that." They played with the cushions on the floor and had fun. They were happy. +Mia and Leo were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make food for their toys. Mia found a jar of olives in the cupboard. She liked olives, but Leo did not. + +"Look, Leo, I have olives!" Mia said, holding the jar. "Do you want some?" + +"Yuck, no!" Leo said, making a face. "Olives are gross. They are green and round and salty. I don't like them." + +Mia opened the jar and took out an olive. She put it in her mouth and smiled. "Mmm, olives are yummy. They are green and round and salty. I like them." + +She urged Leo to try one. She held out an olive to him and said, "Please, Leo, just try one. Maybe you will like it. It is good to try new things." + +Leo looked at the olive. He did not want to try it, but he did not want to make Mia sad. He was her friend, and he liked to play with her. He took the olive from her hand and put it in his mouth. He bit it and made a face. He did not like it. He spit it out and said, "Blech, olives are gross. They are green and round and salty. I don't like them." + +Mia laughed and said, "It's okay, Leo. You don't have to like olives. We can make something else for our toys. How about pizza?" + +Leo nodded and said, "Yes, pizza is good. I like pizza. It is red and flat and cheesy. Let's make pizza." + +They put the jar of olives away and got some bread and cheese and sauce. They made pizza for their toys and ate some too. They had fun in the kitchen. They were happy. +Lily and Ben were playing in the attic. They liked to look at the old things that their grandma had. There was a big chest in the corner. It was brown and had a lock on it. + +"What is in there?" Lily asked. + +"I don't know. Maybe something expensive," Ben said. + +They wanted to open the chest and see. But the lock was too hard to break. They tried to pull the chest closer to the window. Maybe they could find a key outside. + +But the chest was too heavy. They could not move it. They pulled and pulled, but it did not budge. + +"Help me, Lily!" Ben said. + +"I am helping, Ben!" Lily said. + +They pulled harder and harder. But then they heard a loud noise. The chest fell over and hit the floor. It made a big hole in the wood. They saw dust and dirt and spiders. + +"Uh-oh," Lily said. + +"Uh-oh," Ben said. + +They heard their grandma coming up the stairs. She sounded angry. + +"What are you doing up there?" she shouted. + +They were scared. They hid behind the chest. They hoped she would not see the hole. They hoped she would not be mad. They hoped the chest was not too expensive. +Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and hide. They saw a high hedge at the end of the garden. They wondered what was behind it. + +"Let's go and see!" said Ben. + +"OK!" said Lily. + +They ran to the hedge and tried to look over it. But it was too high. They could not see anything. + +"Maybe we can climb it," said Ben. + +He grabbed a branch and pulled himself up. But the branch broke and he fell down. + +"Ouch!" he said. + +"Are you OK?" asked Lily. + +"I'm OK. But I hurt my knee," said Ben. + +He showed Lily his knee. It had a small cut and some blood. + +Lily felt sorry for Ben. She wanted to help him. + +"I know! I can solve this!" she said. + +She ran to the house and came back with a band-aid and a cookie. + +She put the band-aid on Ben's knee and gave him the cookie. + +"There! All better!" she said. + +"Thank you, Lily. You are very kind," said Ben. + +He smiled and ate the cookie. + +They hugged and decided to play something else. + +They forgot about the hedge and what was behind it. They were happy to have each other. +Lily was very happy today. She was going to a party with her friends. She wanted to wear her new dress. It was pink and shiny and had flowers on it. She thought it was the most beautiful dress ever. + +She ran to her room and opened her closet. She looked for her dress, but she could not find it. She felt sad and worried. Where was her dress? She asked her mom. + +"Mom, where is my dress? The pink one with flowers. I want to wear it to the party." + +Her mom smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lily. I have a surprise for you. Come with me." + +She took Lily's hand and led her to the living room. There, on the couch, was Lily's dress. But it was not the same as before. It had a big bow on the front and a ribbon on the back. It also had some glitter on it. It sparkled in the light. + +"Wow!" Lily said. "It's so pretty! Did you do this, mom?" + +"Yes, I did. I wanted to make your dress more special. Do you like it?" + +"I love it, mom! Thank you so much! You are the best mom ever!" + +Lily hugged her mom and kissed her cheek. She put on her dress and looked at herself in the mirror. She felt lucky and happy. She was ready to go to the party and have fun. She hoped her friends would like her dress too. She knew she would have a great day. +Anna and Ben like to play by the lake. They look for pebbles of different colors and shapes. They make piles of pebbles and pretend they are treasure. + +One day, Anna finds a very pretty pebble. It is smooth and shiny and orange. She shows it to Ben and says, "Look, Ben, I found an orange pebble. It is like the sun." + +Ben likes the orange pebble too. He wants to have it for his pile. He says, "Can I have it, Anna? Please? It is so nice." + +Anna does not want to give it to Ben. She says, "No, Ben, it is mine. I found it first. You can have another pebble." + +Ben is sad and angry. He says, "That is not fair, Anna. You have more pebbles than me. You are not a good friend." + +Anna and Ben start to argue. They do not hear their mom call them for lunch. She calls them again and again, but they do not listen. + +Their mom comes to the lake and sees them fighting. She says, "Anna, Ben, what are you doing? Why are you not coming when I call you? Why are you not sharing?" + +Anna and Ben stop and look at their mom. They feel sorry and ashamed. They say, "We are sorry, mom. We were fighting over an orange pebble. We forgot to listen to you. We forgot to share." + +Their mom says, "An orange pebble is not worth fighting over. You can both enjoy it and play with it. Sharing is caring. Come on, let's go home and have lunch. You can bring the pebble with you." + +Anna and Ben hug their mom and say, "Thank you, mom. We love you. We love the orange pebble. We will share it and be good friends." They take the pebble and follow their mom home. They are happy and hungry. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play together, share toys and hug. One day, they decided to play pretend. They found some old clothes and a ring in Lily's mom's closet. They put on the clothes and the ring and said they were married. + +They went to the garden and invited their stuffed animals to their wedding. They had a cake made of mud and flowers. They said nice words to each other and kissed. They were very happy and excited. They felt peace in their hearts. + +But then, Lily's mom came and saw them. She was not happy. She said they were too young to marry. She said they had to take off the clothes and the ring and wash their faces. She said they had to play something else. + +Lily and Ben were sad and angry. They did not want to stop playing. They did not want to give back the ring. They said they loved each other and wanted to stay married. + +Lily's mom saw their tears and felt sorry. She hugged them and said she was sorry too. She said they could keep the ring and the clothes, but they had to wait until they were older to marry. She said they could still be best friends and play together. She said she loved them and wanted them to be happy. + +Lily and Ben smiled and hugged her back. They said they understood and thanked her. They said they loved her too. They went back to the garden and played with their stuffed animals. They still felt peace in their hearts. They knew they would always be best friends. +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play and have fun. But they do not like to help Mom and Dad with chores. They are lazy. + +One day, Mom makes a big dessert. It is a cake with chocolate and cream. It smells very good. Mom says, "Lily and Ben, you can have some dessert after you clean your room and wash the dishes." + +Lily and Ben do not want to do chores. They want to eat dessert now. They sneak into the kitchen when Mom is not looking. They see the cake on the table. They grab a big piece each and run to their room. + +They eat the cake very fast. It is sweet and yummy. They lick their fingers and smile. They think they are very clever. + +But Mom knows what they did. She comes to their room and sees the crumbs and the stains. She is not happy. She says, "Lily and Ben, you are naughty. You ate dessert before doing chores. Now you have no dessert left and you have to do extra chores. And you have to brush your teeth twice." + +Lily and Ben feel sorry. They know they did wrong. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We will not be lazy again. We will help you with chores. Please forgive us." + +Mom hugs them and says, "I forgive you, but you have to learn your lesson. Next time, you have to wait for dessert and do your chores first. Then you can enjoy your dessert and have fun." +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play at the park. They see a big slide. It is purple and shiny. + +"Let's go on the slide!" Lily says. She runs to the ladder. + +"Wait for me!" Ben says. He follows her. + +They climb up the ladder. They sit on the slide. They hold hands. + +"Are you ready?" Lily asks. + +"Yes, I am!" Ben says. + +They slide down the slide. They go fast and feel the wind. They laugh and scream. + +They reach the bottom. They land on the soft grass. They are happy and safe. + +"That was fun!" Lily says. + +"Let's do it again!" Ben says. + +They get up and run to the ladder. They slide again and again. They have a lot of fun on the purple slide. +Lily was hungry. She saw a fork on the table. She wanted to touch it. It looked shiny and fun. + +She reached for the fork. But her mom saw her. She said, "No, Lily, don't touch the fork. It can hurt you." + +Lily did not listen. She grabbed the fork. But it was not fun. It was sharp. It poked her finger. She felt pain. She cried. + +Her mom ran to her. She took the fork away. She said, "I'm sorry, Lily. Are you okay? Let me see your finger." + +She kissed Lily's finger. She put a band-aid on it. She said, "The fork is not a toy, Lily. It is for eating. You have to be careful with it. Next time, listen to mom, okay?" + +Lily nodded. She said, "Okay, mom. I'm sorry. I love you." + +Her mom hugged her. She said, "I love you too, Lily. Now, let's have some lunch. I have some yummy soup for you. You can use a spoon. It is not sharp. It is safe." + +Lily smiled. She said, "Okay, mom. I like soup. And I like spoons. Thank you, mom." + +They went to the kitchen. They had lunch. Lily did not touch the fork again. She learned her lesson. She was happy. +Tom and Anna like to travel with their mom and dad.

You have to find your way out. + +Tom and Anna are excited. They run to the maze and enter. They try to follow the signs, but they get lost. They turn left and right, but they see only walls. They start to feel scared. + +"Tom, where are we?" Anna asks. + +"I don't know, Anna. We have to find the exit," Tom says. + +They keep walking, but they don't see anyone. They hear some noises, but they don't know what they are. They think they see a shadow, but they don't know who it is. + +"Tom, I'm scared. I want mom and dad," Anna says. + +"Me too, Anna. But we have to be brave. We have to find the way out," Tom says. + +They hold hands and walk faster. They hope to see a sign or a person. They hope to see the sun or the sky. They hope to see mom and dad. + +They see a light at the end of the path. They run to it. They see the exit. They see mom and dad. They see other kids. They see the park. They are happy. + +"Mom, dad, we did it! We found the way out!" Tom says. + +"Mom, dad, we were lost! We were scared!" Anna says. + +Mom and dad hug them. They are proud of them.

They want their things back. They chase the dog. But the dog is too fast. He disappears in the woods. + +Lila and Ben are tired. They go back to their house. They tell their mom what happened. Their mom hugs them and gives them hot chocolate. She says they are very brave and modest. She says they can make another snowman tomorrow. Lila and Ben smile. They love their mom. They love winter. +Lily loved to play her violin. She learned from her mom, who was a violin teacher. Lily liked to make music with her mom and dad, who played the piano and the guitar. They had a lot of fun together. + +One day, Lily was playing her violin in her room, when she heard a loud noise. She looked out the window and saw a big truck. The truck was moving fast and hit a tree. The tree fell down and hit Lily's house. Lily was scared and ran to her mom and dad. + +They were okay, but the house was not. The tree broke the roof and the wall. Lily's room was a mess. Her violin was on the floor, and it was broken. Lily was very sad. She loved her violin. She cried and hugged her mom and dad. + +They told her not to worry. They said they would fix the house and the violin. They called some people to help them. The people came with tools and trucks. They worked hard to repair the house and the tree. They were nice and friendly. + +One of the people was a violin maker. He saw Lily's violin and asked if he could see it. Lily was shy and afraid.

She gave her violin to the violin maker. He looked at it carefully. He said it was not too bad. He said he could fix it. He took it to his truck and worked on it. He used glue and wood and strings. He made it look like new. + +He came back and gave it to Lily. He said it was ready. He said he hoped she liked it. Lily took it and looked at it. It was beautiful. It was her violin. She smiled and thanked him. She tried to play it. It sounded good. It sounded like music. + +Lily was happy. She hugged the violin maker. She hugged her mom and dad. She played her violin for them. They played their piano and guitar. They made music together. They had a lot of fun together. +Sara and Tom were playing in the park with their ball. They saw a big black dog near a tree. The dog was barking and wagging its tail. + +"Let's go and pet the dog!" Tom said. He liked dogs very much. + +"No, Tom, we don't know the dog. It might bite us. We should stay away from it." Sara said. She was afraid of dogs. + +"But it looks harmless. It just wants to play. Come on, Sara, don't be scared." Tom said. He ran towards the dog. + +Sara followed him, but she was not happy. She hoped the dog was friendly. + +The dog saw Tom and Sara coming. It stopped barking and ran to them. It licked Tom's face and jumped on Sara. It was very happy to see them. + +"See, Sara, the dog is nice. It likes us. Can we play with it?" Tom asked. + +Sara felt the dog's fur and tongue. It was soft and warm. She smiled and petted the dog. + +"Okay, Tom, we can play with it. But only for a little while. Then we have to go back to our mom and dad. They might be worried." Sara said. + +Tom and Sara played with the dog for a while. They threw the ball and the dog fetched it. They laughed and had fun. + +Then they heard their mom and dad calling them. They said goodbye to the dog and ran to them. + +"Who is that dog?" their mom asked. + +"We don't know. We just met it. It was harmless. It played with us." Tom said. + +"Did you ask the owner if you could pet it?" their dad asked. + +"No, we didn't see the owner. The dog was alone." Sara said. + +Their mom and dad looked at each other. They were glad that nothing bad happened, but they were also worried. + +"Listen, Tom and Sara, we are happy that you made a new friend, but you have to be careful. Not all dogs are harmless. Some dogs might be sick or angry or scared. They might hurt you if you touch them without permission. You should always ask the owner first, or stay away from them if they are alone. Do you understand?" their mom said. + +Tom and Sara nodded. They understood. They hugged their mom and dad and said they were sorry. + +They learned a lesson that day. They learned to be respectful and safe around animals. They also learned to enjoy their friendship with the black dog. They hoped to see it again. +Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big dog with a red collar. The dog was friendly and wagged its tail. + +"Can we pet the dog?" Anna asked Ben. + +"I don't know. Maybe we should ask the owner first," Ben said. + +They looked around and saw a man sitting on a bench. He was reading a book and had a cup of coffee. He smiled at them and nodded. + +"Hello, kids. Do you like my dog? His name is Max," the man said. + +"Yes, he is very nice. Can we pet him?" Anna repeated her question. + +"Sure, you can. He loves to be petted. He is very gentle and smart," the man said. + +Anna and Ben walked towards Max. They reached out their hands and touched his fur. He licked their faces and made them giggle. + +"Wow, he is so soft and warm. He is a good dog," Ben said. + +"Thank you for letting us pet him. He is a great surprise," Anna said. + +"You're welcome. You are very brave and polite. Do you want to play fetch with him? I have a ball in my bag," the man said. + +"Yes, please. That sounds fun," Anna and Ben said. + +The man took out a yellow ball and threw it. Max ran after it and brought it back. Anna and Ben took turns throwing the ball and petting Max. They had a lot of fun and made a new friend. +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. They had a red wagon that they shared. Sometimes they took turns pulling the wagon, and sometimes they both rode in it. They had a lot of fun with their wagon. + +One day, they saw a new wagon in their neighbor's yard. It was bigger and shinier than their wagon. It had four wheels, a horn, and a handle. Tom and Lily wanted to try the new wagon. They asked their neighbor, Ben, if they could play with it. + +"Sure, you can play with my wagon," Ben said. "But you have to let me play with your wagon, too." + +Tom and Lily agreed. They gave their wagon to Ben and took his wagon. They pulled and pushed the new wagon around the yard. They honked the horn and waved the handle. They felt very happy. + +But after a while, they noticed something. The new wagon was too heavy for them. They got tired of pulling and pushing it. They also saw that the horn was loud and annoying. It hurt their ears. And the handle was hard to hold. It made their hands sore. + +They looked at Ben. He was having fun with their wagon. He was pulling it easily and smoothly. He was smiling and laughing. He looked very happy. + +Tom and Lily felt very sad. They realized that they had made a mistake. They missed their wagon. They wanted it back. + +They went to Ben and said, "Ben, can we have our wagon back? We don't like your wagon. It's too big and noisy and hard. We like our wagon. It's just right for us." + +Ben looked at them and said, "Sure, you can have your wagon back. But you have to learn a lesson. You have to be happy with what you have. You don't need a bigger or shinier or fancier wagon. You need a regular wagon that suits you. That's the best wagon for you." + +Tom and Lily nodded. They understood. They thanked Ben and gave him his wagon back. They took their wagon and hugged it. They felt very sorry and very grateful. They learned to appreciate their wagon and never wanted another one again. They had a lot of fun with their wagon. +Ben and Sam are friends. They like to ride bikes. They have a team. They wear red hats and blue shirts. They ride fast and have fun. + +One day, they see a new boy in the park. He has a big bike. He wears a green hat and a yellow shirt. He rides slow and looks sad. + +"Who is he?" Ben asks Sam. + +"I don't know. He is ugly. He has a big nose and small eyes. He does not have a team. Let's go away," Sam says. + +But Ben is kind. He rides to the new boy and says, "Hi, I am Ben. This is Sam. We have a team. Do you want to join us?" + +The new boy smiles. He says, "Hi, I am Tom. I am new here. I don't have a team. I want to join you. Thank you." + +Ben and Sam are happy. They give Tom a red hat and a blue shirt. They teach him how to ride fast and have fun. They are a good team. They are friends. +Tom and Jen are playing with water in the garden. They have a big tub of water and some cups and spoons. They pour water on the grass, on the flowers, and on each other. They laugh and splash and have fun. + +But then Mom comes out and says, "Time to go inside, kids. It's getting cold and dark. You need to dry off and put on warm clothes." She gives them each a big towel and helps them dry their hair and arms and legs. She tells them to leave the wet clothes in a pile by the exit. + +Tom and Jen follow Mom inside. They see a big sign on the door that says "EXIT". They know what it means. It means the way out. They learned it from a book. They think they are very smart. + +But when they go inside, they see something that makes them stop and stare. It is Dad. He is sitting on the couch, watching TV. He is wearing a silly hat, a long scarf, and big boots. He looks very hot and funny. + +"Why are you wearing that, Dad?" Tom asks. + +"Because it's cold and dark outside," Dad says. + +"But you are inside, Dad," Jen says. + +"I know, I know," Dad says. "But I wanted to be ready in case I had to go outside." + +Tom and Jen look at each other. They think Dad is very stupid. They giggle and shake their heads. They go to their room and put on warm pajamas. They are glad they are not stupid like Dad. +Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big bus.

They climb the steps and look for a seat. + +But the bus is very dirty. The seats are sticky and have stains. The floor is full of trash and bugs. The windows are cracked and dusty. Tom and Anna do not like the bus. + +"Yuck, this bus is gross!" Tom says. He makes a face. + +"I agree, this bus is nasty!" Anna says. She holds her nose. + +They run off the bus and back to the park. They find a clean bench and sit down. They are happy to be out of the bus. + +"Let's never go on that bus again!" Tom says. + +"Never ever!" Anna says. They laugh and hug. They play in the park until it is time to go home. +One day, Ben and Lily went to the farm with their mom. They saw many animals, like cows, pigs, sheep and chickens. They also saw a big field with tall plants. Mom said those plants were oats. Ben and Lily wanted to know more about oats. + +"Mom, what are oats for?" Ben asked. + +"Oats are for making food, like oatmeal and bread. The farmer grows them and then harvests them when they are ripe. Do you want to see how?" Mom said. + +"Yes, please!" Ben and Lily said. + +Mom took them to a barn, where they saw a machine that crushed the oats and made them into small flakes. They also saw a big bag of oat flakes that the farmer gave them to take home. + +"Thank you, farmer!" Ben and Lily said. + +"You're welcome, kids. Enjoy your oats!" The farmer said. + +On the way home, Ben and Lily were hungry. They asked Mom if they could eat some of the oat flakes. Mom said yes, but they had to share. She gave them each a handful of oat flakes and a cup of water. + +Ben and Lily liked the oat flakes. They were crunchy and sweet. But Ben wanted more. He saw that Lily still had some oat flakes in her hand. He quickly grabbed them and stuffed them in his mouth. + +"Hey, that's not fair! Those were mine!" Lily cried. + +"Ben, that was very rude. You should not take Lily's food without asking. You have to say sorry and give her some of yours." Mom said. + +Ben felt ashamed. He knew he did something bad. He looked at Lily, who was sad and angry. + +"I'm sorry, Lily. I was greedy. Here, you can have some of my oat flakes." Ben said. + +He gave Lily half of his oat flakes. Lily smiled and said thank you. She forgave Ben and shared her water with him. + +Mom was proud of Ben and Lily. She explained to them that sharing was caring, and that they should always be kind to each other. Ben and Lily agreed and hugged each other. They learned a lesson and enjoyed their oats. +Tom and Sue wanted to buy a new dishwasher. Their old one was broken and made a lot of noise. They went to the shop and saw many dishwashers. Some were big, some were small, some were shiny, some were dull. + +They asked the man in the shop, "Which dishwasher is the best?" + +The man pointed to a dishwasher that was very big and shiny. He said, "This dishwasher is the best. It is very dependable. It will wash your dishes very well and very fast. It will not break or make noise. It is only a little bit expensive." + +Tom and Sue liked the big and shiny dishwasher. They thought it was dependable. They said, "We will buy this dishwasher. Thank you, man." + +The man smiled and said, "You are welcome. I will help you take it to your car." + +Tom and Sue paid the man and took the dishwasher to their car. They drove home and put the dishwasher in their kitchen. They were very happy. They wanted to try the dishwasher right away. They put some dirty dishes in the dishwasher and turned it on. + +But something was wrong. The dishwasher did not wash the dishes. It made a lot of noise and smoke. It started to leak water and soap. It made a big mess in the kitchen. Tom and Sue were very sad and angry. They realized that the man in the shop had lied to them. The dishwasher was not dependable. It was very bad. + +They tried to call the man in the shop, but he did not answer. They tried to take the dishwasher back to the shop, but the shop was closed. They tried to get their money back, but they could not. They were stuck with the bad dishwasher. They had to clean the mess in the kitchen. They had to wash the dishes by hand. They wished they had not bought the big and shiny dishwasher. They wished they had bought a small and dull dishwasher that was really dependable. The end. +Mommy and Danny were in the park.

It was a bottle, and it was filled with ink. + +The child asked the mum, "What is this?" + +The mum replied, "It's ink, and it's very special. It can help us measure things". + +The child was excited and asked, "What kind of things can we measure?" + +The mum smiled and said, "Most things that are kind. We can measure how kind people behave, or how kind people are to each other. We can measure anything that is kind". + +The child was happy to hear this.
