+"I dare you to touch it!" she said.
+
+Max looked at the piece. He looked at Lily. He was not sure.
+
+"Are you sure?" he asked. "What if it sprays me?"
+
+Lily laughed.
+
+"It is just a puzzle piece, silly!" she said. "It can't spray you. It is not real. It is just a picture. I dare you to touch it!"
+
+Max thought for a moment. He was curious. He wanted to see the skunk. He was brave.
+
+"OK, I will touch it!" he said.
+
+He reached out his hand and touched the piece. It felt smooth and hard. It did not smell. It did not spray.
+
+"See?" Lily said. "It is not scary. It is just a puzzle piece."
+
+Max smiled.
+
+"You are right!" he said. "It is not scary. It is just a puzzle piece."
+
+They laughed. They put the piece aside. They continued to do the puzzle. They had fun. They were best friends.
+Tom and Lily were best friends. They liked to play with their toys, draw pictures and joke with each other. They also loved their cat, Max, who was very adorable. He had soft fur, big eyes and a long tail. He liked to cuddle with them and purr.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily decided to play a joke on Max. They found a big box and cut a hole in it. They put some treats inside the box and waited for Max to come. They wanted to see his face when he got stuck in the box.
+
+Max smelled the treats and walked towards the box. He saw the hole and went inside. He ate the treats and tried to get out. But he could not. The hole was too small and the box was too heavy. He meowed and scratched the box, but no one heard him.
+
+Tom and Lily were busy playing with their dolls. They forgot about Max and the box. They did not hear his cries for help. They did not see him getting scared and sad. They did not notice him getting hot and thirsty.
+
+After a long time, Tom and Lily remembered their joke. They ran to the box and opened it. They expected to see Max looking funny and surprised. But they did not. They saw Max looking still and quiet. He was not breathing. He was not alive. He was gone.
+
+Tom and Lily cried and cried. They hugged Max and said sorry. They wished they never played that joke. They wished they could bring him back. But they could not. They had lost their cat, their friend, their adorable Max.
+Lily and Max were playing in the garden. They liked to make things with wood and nails. They had a big box of nails and a hammer. They found some old wood and started to make a house for their toys.
+
+Lily was very careful with the hammer. She hit the nails hard and made them go into the wood. She was good at making things. Max was not so careful. He hit the nails too fast and missed them. Sometimes he hit his finger and said "ouch". Sometimes he hit the wood and made it break.
+
+Max got angry and threw the hammer. It flew across the garden and hit the fence. The fence was old and weak. It made a loud noise and fell down. Lily and Max were scared. They ran to the fence and looked at it. They saw a big hole in it. They could see the street and the cars and the people.
+
+Lily and Max did not like the hole. They liked their garden. It was safe and quiet and fun. They wanted to fix the fence. But they did not have enough wood or nails. They did not know what to do.
+
+Then they saw their dad. He was coming home from work. He had a big bag with him. He saw the hole and the hammer and the wood and the nails. He was not happy. He asked Lily and Max what happened. They told him the truth. They said they were sorry.
+
+Dad was not angry. He was kind. He said he had a surprise for them. He opened his bag and took out some new wood and nails. He said he wanted to help them make something. He said they could make a birdhouse for the garden. He said it would be fun and easy.
+
+Lily and Max were happy. They hugged their dad and said thank you. They took the new wood and nails and followed him. He showed them how to measure and cut and hammer. He helped them make a beautiful birdhouse. He found a good place for it on a tree. He leaned a ladder against the tree and climbed up. He nailed the birdhouse to the branch. He climbed down and smiled.
+
+Lily and Max smiled too. They looked at their birdhouse. It was pretty and strong and cozy. They hoped the birds would like it. They felt proud and happy. They felt comfortable in their garden. They said they loved their dad. He said he loved them too. They hugged and laughed. They had a good day.
+Tom and Lily were going on a big trip with Mom and Dad. They had to pack their bags and bring their passports. A passport was a small book with their names and pictures that let them go to other places. Tom and Lily were very excited to see new things and have fun.
+
+But when they got to the airport, they had a problem. Their passports were in Mom's purse, and Mom's purse was very tight. She could not open it. She pulled and pulled, but the zipper was stuck. She asked Dad for help, but he could not open it either. They tried to find someone who could fix it, but they did not have much time. Their plane was leaving soon.
+
+Tom and Lily were worried. They did not want to miss their trip. They did not want to go back home. They wanted to see the other place. They looked at Mom and Dad, who looked sad and angry. They heard Mom say, "Maybe we should quit. Maybe this trip is not meant to be."
+
+Tom and Lily did not like that. They did not want to quit. They wanted to try. They had an idea. They went to Mom's purse and said, "Can we try, Mom? Please?" Mom nodded and gave them the purse. Tom and Lily took turns to pull the zipper. They pulled hard, but gently. They pulled with their fingers, their teeth, and their feet. They pulled and pulled, and then they heard a click. The zipper was open!
+
+Mom and Dad were amazed. They hugged Tom and Lily and thanked them. They took out their passports and ran to the gate. They made it just in time. They boarded the plane and found their seats. They buckled their belts and smiled. They did not quit. They did it. They were going on their big trip. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the yard. They liked to make things with sticks and stones and leaves. They found a shiny wire on the ground. It was long and thin and bendy.
+
+"Look, Ben, we can use this wire to make a necklace or a bracelet," Lily said. She picked up the wire and tried to wrap it around her wrist.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" she cried. The wire was sharp and it hurt her skin. It made a small cut on her wrist and it bled a little.
+
+"Let me see, Lily," Ben said. He was kind and he wanted to help his sister. He took the wire from her and threw it away. He got a tissue from his pocket and wiped the blood from her wrist. "You need a band-aid, Lily. Come on, let's go inside and ask Mom."
+
+"No, no, no!" Lily refused. She did not like band-aids. They were sticky and they pulled her hair. She was afraid they would hurt more than the wire. She ran away from Ben and hid behind a tree.
+
+"Lily, don't be silly," Ben said. He followed her and tried to coax her out. "Band-aids are good for you. They protect your cut and make it heal faster. Mom will be gentle and she will give you a hug and a kiss. Please, Lily, come with me."
+
+Lily peeked out from behind the tree. She saw Ben's face. He looked worried and sad. He was not angry or mean. He was her brother and he loved her. She felt sorry for making him upset. She decided to be brave and trust him.
+
+"Okay, Ben, I'll come with you," she said. She came out from behind the tree and took his hand. They walked together to the house. Mom saw them and smiled. She gave them both a hug and a kiss. She put a band-aid on Lily's wrist and told her she was a good girl. Lily felt better and she thanked Ben for being kind. They went back to the yard and played some more. They did not touch the wire again. They had learned their lesson.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big bird with red and yellow feathers. It has a long tail and a sharp beak. The bird is on a branch, but it does not fly.
+
+"Wow, look at that bird!" Sara says. "It has an impressive wing. I wish I could fly like that."
+
+"Me too," Ben says. "But maybe the bird is sick or hurt. Why does it not fly?"
+
+They go closer to the bird. They are careful and quiet. They do not want to scare the bird. The bird sees them and makes a loud noise.
+
+"Hello, hello!" the bird says. "Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Sara and Ben are surprised. The bird can talk!
+
+"Hello, bird," Sara says. "Why do you not fly? Do you have a problem with your wing?"
+
+"No, no," the bird says. "My wing is fine. I just like to lie on the branch and watch the people and the cars. It is fun and relaxing."
+
+"But don't you want to fly in the sky and feel the wind?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sometimes I do," the bird says. "But flying is hard work. It makes me tired and hungry. And there are many dangers in the sky. Other birds, cats, hawks, planes. I prefer to lie here and talk to you. You are nice and friendly."
+
+Sara and Ben smile. They think the bird is funny and smart. They decide to stay and play with the bird. They ask the bird many questions and learn many things. The bird tells them stories and jokes and sings songs. They have a lot of fun. They forget about the time and the other games. They only remember the bird and its impressive wing.
+Sara loves animals. She wants to be a veterinarian when she grows up. She likes to organize her toys and pretend they are sick pets. She has a dog, a cat, a rabbit, a bear, and a fish.
+
+One day, Sara decides to play veterinarian with her toys. She puts them on the sofa and gives them names. She says, "Hello, I am Dr. Sara. I will help you feel better." She takes her toy stethoscope and listens to their hearts. She gives them pretend medicine and bandages.
+
+But Sara's brother, Tom, does not like her game. He thinks Sara is silly and boring. He wants to play with his cars and trucks. He sees Sara's toys on the sofa and gets angry. He says, "Move your stupid toys! They are in my way!" He grabs Sara's toys and throws them on the floor.
+
+Sara cries and runs to her toys. She sees that her dog is missing an ear, her cat is torn, her rabbit is dirty, her bear is flat, and her fish is broken. She says, "Tom, you are mean and bad! You ruined my toys! You hurt my pets!"
+
+Tom laughs and says, "They are not pets, they are just toys. You are a baby and a crybaby. Go away and leave me alone!" He pushes Sara and takes the sofa for himself.
+
+Sara feels sad and angry. She has no one to play with and no one to help her. She hugs her toys and wishes they were real. She thinks being a veterinarian is hard and not fun. She thinks Tom is the worst brother ever. She thinks she hates him.
+Tim and Mia went to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and birds. They liked the animals, but they wanted to see the seals. The seals lived in a big pool of water, and they could swim and jump and clap.
+
+"Look, Mom, look, Dad, the seals are so funny!" Tim said.
+
+"Yes, they are, Tim. Do you want to feed them some fish?" Mom asked.
+
+"Yes, yes, please!" Tim and Mia said.
+
+Mom and Dad bought some fish from a man. They gave some fish to Tim and Mia. They told them to stand near the edge of the pool, but not too close. They said to hold the fish in their hands and wait for the seals to come.
+
+Tim and Mia did what Mom and Dad said. They stood near the edge of the pool, but not too close. They held the fish in their hands and waited for the seals to come. The seals saw the fish and came to the edge of the pool. They made noises and opened their mouths.
+
+"Here, seal, here, have some fish!" Mia said, and threw a fish to a seal. The seal caught the fish and ate it. It clapped and made more noises.
+
+"Me too, me too!" Tim said, and threw a fish to another seal. The seal caught the fish and ate it. It clapped and made more noises.
+
+Tim and Mia were happy. They wanted to give more fish to the seals. They threw more fish to the seals. The seals ate more fish. They clapped and made more noises.
+
+But then, something bad happened. One seal was very hungry. It wanted more fish. It saw Tim's hand. It thought Tim's hand was a fish. It jumped out of the water and bit Tim's hand.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow, it hurts, it hurts!" Tim cried.
+
+"Tim, Tim, are you okay?" Mom and Dad said. They ran to Tim and saw his hand. His hand was bleeding. It was not a fish. It was a hand.
+
+"Help, help, we need help!" Mom and Dad said. They called a man. The man came and saw Tim's hand. He said Tim needed to go to a doctor. He said the seal was bad. He said the seal should not bite people.
+
+Mom and Dad took Tim to the doctor. The doctor looked at Tim's hand. He said Tim needed stitches. He said Tim would be okay, but he would have a scar. He said Tim should not feed the seals again.
+
+Tim was sad. He was hurt. He was scared. He did not like the seal. He did not like the zoo. He wanted to go home.
+
+Mia was sad too. She was sorry for Tim. She was sorry for the seal. She liked the seal. She liked the zoo. She wanted to stay.
+
+But they had to go home. They said goodbye to the animals. They said goodbye to the zoo. They got in the car and drove away.
+
+The end.
+Ben liked to soar in the sky. He had a big kite that his dad made for him. It was red and blue and had a long tail. Ben ran with the kite and let the wind lift it up. He felt happy when he saw the kite fly high and fast.
+
+One day, Ben went to the park with his dad and his kite. He saw other kids playing with their kites. Some had kites that looked like birds, some had kites that looked like stars, some had kites that looked like flowers. Ben thought they were all pretty, but he liked his kite the best.
+
+He ran to a big field and let his kite soar. He smiled and waved at his dad. But then, he tripped on a rock and fell down. He hurt his leg and it started to bleed. He cried and called for his dad. His dad came and picked him up. He hugged him and said, "Don't worry, Ben. It's just a scratch. We'll put a band-aid on it and you'll be fine."
+
+Ben looked at his leg and saw the band-aid. It was different from his skin. It was white and had a picture of a dinosaur on it. He liked dinosaurs. He asked his dad, "Can I still fly my kite?"
+
+His dad nodded and said, "Of course you can. Your leg will heal soon. And your kite is still waiting for you. Let's go and make it soar again."
+
+Ben smiled and said, "Okay, dad. I love you and I love my kite."
+
+They went back to the field and flew the kite together. Ben felt happy again. He forgot about his leg and only watched his kite soar in the sky. He thought it was the best kite in the world.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a yellow bird in a tree. It was singing a pretty song.
+
+"Look, a yellow bird!" Lily said. "It is so nice. I want to care for it."
+
+Tom nodded. He liked the bird too. He had a plan. He said, "Let's catch the bird. We can take it home and make it our pet. Maybe it has magic."
+
+Lily and Tom found a box and some bread. They put the bread in the box and left it under the tree. They hid behind a bush and waited for the bird to come.
+
+Soon, the bird saw the bread. It flew down and went inside the box. Lily and Tom ran to the box and closed it. They had caught the bird.
+
+"Yay, we did it!" Tom said. "Let's go home and see its magic."
+
+Lily and Tom carried the box to their house. They opened it in their room. They hoped the bird would sing and do magic tricks.
+
+But the bird did not sing. It did not do magic. It was very sad and scared. It wanted to go back to the park and its friends. It tried to fly, but it hit the walls and the ceiling. It hurt itself.
+
+Lily and Tom felt bad. They did not know how to care for the bird. They did not know how to make it happy. They wished they had left it alone.
+
+But it was too late. The bird was too hurt and too sad. It stopped moving and breathing. It died.
+
+Lily and Tom cried. They had killed the bird. They had no magic. They had no friend. They had done a bad thing.
+Tom is a dog who likes to play with a ball. He has a ball with a spike on it. The spike makes the ball bounce high and fast. Tom likes to chase the ball and catch it in his mouth.
+
+One day, Tom meets a new friend. His name is Ben. Ben is a cat who likes to nap in the sun. He has a soft and fluffy fur. Ben does not like to play with a ball. He thinks it is too loud and too hard.
+
+Tom wants to play with Ben. He brings his ball with a spike to Ben and drops it in front of him. He barks and wags his tail. He hopes Ben will throw the ball for him.
+
+But Ben does not like the ball. He hisses and scratches the ball with his claws. He makes a hole in the ball. The air comes out of the ball. The ball does not bounce anymore. It is flat and sad.
+
+Tom is sad too. He likes his ball. He does not understand why Ben does not like it. He thinks Ben is mean and rude.
+
+But Ben is not mean and rude. He is just different. He likes different things. He likes to be quiet and calm. He does not like to be loud and fast.
+
+Ben sees that Tom is sad. He feels sorry for him. He wants to be his friend. He thinks of a way to improve the situation. He finds a new ball for Tom. It is a ball without a spike. It is soft and squeaky. It makes a funny noise when you squeeze it.
+
+Ben brings the new ball to Tom and gives it to him. He meows and rubs his head against Tom's leg. He hopes Tom will like the new ball.
+
+Tom is surprised and happy. He likes the new ball. He likes the funny noise. He thinks Ben is nice and polite. He thanks Ben for the new ball. He licks Ben's face.
+
+Tom and Ben become friends. They play with the new ball together. Sometimes they play loud and fast. Sometimes they play quiet and calm. They have fun and learn from each other. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing at the beach. They liked to dig in the sand and look for shells. They saw a big rock with a hole in it. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Ben said. "Maybe there is a treasure!"
+
+"OK, Ben!" Lily said. "But be careful. It might be dark and scary."
+
+They crawled into the hole. It was dark and wet. They heard a strange sound. It was like a bell. Ring, ring, ring.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know," Ben said. "Let's find out!"
+
+They followed the sound. They saw a shiny thing. It was a ring. It was on a tentacle. The tentacle belonged to an octopus. The octopus was not happy. It did not like visitors. It waved its tentacles and squirted ink.
+
+"Help!" Lily and Ben shouted. "It's an octopus! It's angry!"
+
+They ran out of the hole. They were scared and dirty. They saw their mom and dad. They ran to them and hugged them.
+
+"What happened?" Mom asked.
+
+"We found a ring in a rock," Lily said. "But it was an octopus's ring. It was not cool. It was mean."
+
+"We're sorry, kids," Dad said. "You should not take things that are not yours. They might belong to someone else. And you should not go into places that are not safe. They might have dangers."
+
+"We know, Dad," Ben said. "We learned our lesson. We will not do it again."
+
+They washed their faces and hands. They gave the ring back to the octopus. They said sorry. The octopus said thank you. It was not mean anymore. It was cool. It waved goodbye.
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They were happy. They learned to respect others and to be careful. They played at the beach. They had fun.
+Lily and True are best friends. They like to play together in the park. One day, they find a big box near the slide. They want to see what is inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Lily says.
+
+"OK!" True says.
+
+They pull and push the box, but it is too heavy. They see a rope around the box. They have an idea.
+
+"Let's tie the rope to the slide!" True says.
+
+"Good idea!" Lily says.
+
+They work hard to tie the rope. They are very busy. They do not see a man coming to the park. He is looking for his box.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing with my box?" the man says.
+
+Lily and True are scared. They let go of the rope. The box slides down the slide and hits the man. He falls down and groans.
+
+"Ouch! That hurts!" the man says.
+
+Lily and True run away. They hide behind a tree. They are sorry for the man, but they are also glad they are safe.
+
+"Let's not touch boxes that are not ours," Lily says.
+
+"OK," True says.
+
+They hug each other. They are still best friends.
+Lily and Ben went to the museum with their mom. They saw many things, like big bones, shiny rocks, and old paintings. But Lily and Ben liked the animals best. They saw lions, tigers, bears, and more.
+
+"Look, Ben, a dinosaur!" Lily said, pointing to a huge skeleton. "It is so big and powerful. Do you think it could roar?"
+
+"Of course it could roar, Lily. It was the king of the animals. It could roar louder than anything," Ben said.
+
+"I want to hear it roar. Can you roar like a dinosaur, Ben?" Lily asked.
+
+Ben nodded and opened his mouth. He tried to roar like a dinosaur, but it sounded more like a squeak. Lily laughed.
+
+"That is not a roar, Ben. That is a mouse. Let me show you how to roar," Lily said. She took a deep breath and roared as loud as she could.
+
+But her roar was too loud. It made the alarm go off in the museum. A red light flashed and a siren wailed. Lily and Ben got scared. They ran to their mom and hugged her.
+
+"What is going on?" their mom asked.
+
+"We were just playing, mom. We were roaring like dinosaurs," Lily said.
+
+"But you are not dinosaurs, Lily. You are children. You have to be quiet and respectful in the museum. You can't roar and make noise. You might disturb the other visitors and the staff," their mom said.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. We didn't mean to cause trouble. We just wanted to have fun," Ben said.
+
+Their mom smiled and kissed them. "I know, sweeties. I'm glad you are curious and imaginative. But you have to learn when and where to roar and when and where to whisper. Come on, let's go and see the other exhibits. Maybe we can find a quiet place to roar later."
+Ben and Mia were playing with their toys in the living room. They had cars, dolls, blocks, and books. They liked to make different scenes with their toys and pretend they were in a big adventure.
+
+"Look, Mia, I made a bridge with the blocks. The cars can go over it and escape from the bad guys," Ben said.
+
+"That's cool, Ben. And I made a house with the books. The dolls can live there and have tea parties," Mia said.
+
+They played for a long time, until their mom called them for lunch.
+
+"Kids, it's time to eat. Come to the kitchen, please," mom said.
+
+"OK, mom. We're coming," Ben and Mia said.
+
+But before they went to the kitchen, they had to sort their toys. Mom always told them to sort their toys and put them away in the right boxes. Ben and Mia knew how to sort their toys. They had a box for cars, a box for dolls, a box for blocks, and a box for books.
+
+They started to sort their toys quickly. They picked up each toy and put it in the matching box. They liked to sort their toys. It was like a game.
+
+"Look, I sorted all the cars. They are in the car box," Ben said.
+
+"Good job, Ben. And I sorted all the dolls. They are in the doll box," Mia said.
+
+They finished sorting their toys and looked for the exit. The exit was the door that led to the hallway. They opened the door and ran to the kitchen. They were excited to eat lunch. They wondered what mom had made for them. They hoped it was something yummy.
+Lila and Tom were playing in the garden at night. They liked to look at the stars and the moon. Sometimes they saw planes or satellites, but they did not know what they were.
+
+"Look, look!" Tom shouted. "A big star with a tail!"
+
+Lila looked up and saw a bright light in the sky. It was moving fast and leaving a trail of sparks behind it. She had never seen anything like it before.
+
+"What is it?" she asked.
+
+Tom did not know, but he tried to guess.
+
+"Maybe it is a fairy or a dragon or a rocket," he said.
+
+Lila shook her head. She did not think it was any of those things.
+
+"Maybe it is a comet," she said. She had heard that word from a book her mom read to her. It was a big rock that flew around the sun and sometimes came close to the earth.
+
+"A comet?" Tom repeated. He liked the sound of that word. It sounded cool and mysterious.
+
+"Can we catch it?" he asked.
+
+Lila laughed. She knew they could not catch it. It was too far and too fast.
+
+"No, we can't catch it," she said. "But we can make a wish on it."
+
+Tom nodded. He liked that idea. He closed his eyes and thought of something he wanted.
+
+Lila did the same. She wished for something too.
+
+They opened their eyes and saw the comet disappear behind the trees.
+
+"Did you make a wish?" Lila asked.
+
+"Yes, I did," Tom replied.
+
+"What did you wish for?" Lila asked.
+
+Tom smiled. He did not want to tell her. He thought it was a secret.
+
+"I can't tell you," he said. "Or it won't come true."
+
+Lila nodded. She understood. She did not want to tell him either.
+
+They looked at each other and smiled. They were glad they saw the comet. They hoped their wishes would come true. They hugged and went back to the house. They had a special night.
+Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play music together. Ben has a trumpet. Lily has a drum. They make a lot of noise.
+
+One day, they decide to play music for the people in the park. They put on their hats and coats and take their instruments. They are very organized. They have a plan.
+
+They find a nice spot under a big tree. They put a sign that says "Ben and Lily's Band". They start to play. Some people stop and listen. Some people smile and clap. Some people give them coins.
+
+Ben and Lily are happy. They wave to the people. They say "Thank you" and "Hello". They play louder and faster. They have fun.
+
+But then, a big dog comes. The dog is curious. He wants to play too. He runs to Ben and Lily. He barks and jumps. He knocks over the sign. He grabs the trumpet. He runs away.
+
+Ben and Lily are sad. They chase the dog. They shout "Stop" and "Come back". They want their trumpet back. They need their trumpet to play music.
+
+Will they get their trumpet back? Will they play music again? What will the dog do with the trumpet? The end.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They saw a big pond with ducks and fish. They wanted to feed them some bread.
+
+"Look, Lily, a big green thing!" Ben said, pointing to the water.
+
+"What is it, Ben?" Lily asked, following his finger.
+
+"It is an alligator. It has big teeth and a long tail. It can scare us and bite us. We should stay away from it," Ben said, feeling scared.
+
+Lily looked at the green thing. It did not look like an alligator. It looked like a log with eyes and bumps. It did not move or make noise. It looked weird.
+
+"I don't think it is an alligator, Ben. I think it is a log. It is not scary. It is funny. Let's throw some bread at it and see what happens," Lily said, feeling brave.
+
+She took a piece of bread from her bag and threw it at the green thing. The bread landed on its head. The green thing blinked and opened its mouth. It was not a log. It was an alligator!
+
+"Run, Lily, run!" Ben shouted, grabbing her hand.
+
+They ran away from the pond as fast as they could. The alligator did not chase them. It ate the bread and went back to sleep.
+
+Ben and Lily were safe. They learned a lesson. They should not go near the pond. They should not throw bread at weird things. They should listen to Ben. He knows about alligators.
+Tom and Lily were playing dress-up in their room. They had many clothes and hats and shoes to try on. They had fun pretending to be different people and animals.
+
+But Tom wanted to wear the red coat that Lily had on. He said, "Lend me the red coat, Lily. I want to be a firefighter."
+
+Lily said, "No, Tom. This is my coat. You can wear the blue one. It is also nice."
+
+Tom was angry. He said, "No, I don't like the blue one. Give me the red one now!" He tried to pull the coat from Lily.
+
+Lily was sad. She said, "Stop, Tom. You are hurting me. And you are tearing the coat. It is not yours."
+
+Tom did not listen. He pulled harder and harder. Then, the coat ripped. The buttons flew off. The hanger broke.
+
+Tom and Lily were shocked. They looked at the ruined coat. They felt bad.
+
+They heard their mom coming. They were scared. They knew they did something wrong.
+
+Mom saw the mess. She saw the ripped coat, the broken hanger, and the sad children. She was not happy. She said, "What happened here? Who did this?"
+
+Tom and Lily did not know what to say. They were sorry. They wanted to fix the coat and the hanger. They wanted to make mom happy.
+
+Mom saw their faces. She was compassionate. She said, "I know you were playing. But you have to be careful with your things. And you have to share with each other. Lending is a good way to show kindness. Can you do that?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They said, "Yes, mom. We are sorry. We will share and lend. We will be kind."
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "That's good. I love you both. Now, let's see if we can mend the coat and the hanger. And then, we can play some more."
+Lily and Sam are friends. They like to play outside. They have a new toy. It is a record machine. It can make sounds like the ones they hear.
+
+One day, they go to the park. They see many things in nature. They see birds, trees, flowers, and bugs. They hear many sounds too. They hear chirping, rustling, buzzing, and singing.
+
+"Let's record the sounds of nature!" Lily says. She holds the record machine. She pushes a button. It makes a beep.
+
+"Okay!" Sam says. He follows Lily. They walk around the park. They point the record machine at different things. They record the sounds they like.
+
+They record a bird singing on a branch. They record a squirrel running on the grass. They record a bee flying near a flower. They record a dog barking at a ball.
+
+They are happy. They have many sounds of nature. They go back to the bench. They sit down. They push another button. It makes another beep.
+
+They listen to the record machine. It plays back the sounds they recorded. They hear the bird, the squirrel, the bee, and the dog. They smile. They clap their hands.
+
+"We did it!" Lily says. "We recorded the sounds of nature!"
+
+"We did!" Sam says. "They are beautiful!"
+
+They hug each other. They are proud. They have a new toy. They have a new record. They have a new adventure.
+Tom was a little boy who liked to grow things. He had a small garden where he planted seeds and watered them every day. He was very proud of his flowers and vegetables.
+
+One day, he saw a big rabbit in his garden. The rabbit was eating his carrots and lettuce. Tom was very angry and ran to the rabbit. "Stop! Stop! You are eating my dinner!" he shouted.
+
+The rabbit looked at Tom and twitched his nose. He did not stop eating. He liked the carrots and lettuce very much. He thought they were his dinner.
+
+Tom tried to chase the rabbit away, but the rabbit was too fast. He hopped and dodged and ran around the garden. Tom could not catch him. He felt very troubled. He did not want to lose his dinner.
+
+He ran to his house and called his mom. "Mom! Mom! There is a rabbit in my garden! He is eating my dinner! Help me!" he cried.
+
+His mom came out and saw the rabbit. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, Tom. The rabbit is not eating your dinner. He is eating his dinner. You have plenty of other vegetables in your garden. Why don't you share some with the rabbit? He is a friend, not an enemy."
+
+Tom thought about it and nodded. He liked to share and make friends. He picked some carrots and lettuce and put them in a basket. He walked to the rabbit and said, "Here, rabbit. You can have some of my dinner. But please don't eat too much. Leave some for me and my mom."
+
+The rabbit stopped eating and looked at Tom. He saw the basket and smelled the carrots and lettuce. He wagged his tail and made a happy sound. He took some of the vegetables and ate them. He thanked Tom and said, "You are very kind, Tom. You are a good gardener and a good friend. I will not eat too much. I will leave some for you and your mom."
+
+Tom smiled and said, "You are welcome, rabbit. You are a good eater and a good friend. I am glad you like my garden. Maybe you can come back and visit me again."
+
+The rabbit nodded and said, "I would like that, Tom. Maybe I can bring you some flowers and seeds from my home. They are very pretty and tasty."
+
+Tom and the rabbit became friends and shared their dinner. They both felt very happy and not troubled anymore.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to study books with pictures and words. They learn new things every day. One day, they find a big book in the library. The book has a bright cover and a lock. The lock has a keyhole.
+
+"Wow, look at this book!" Tom says. "It is so bright and shiny. Maybe it has gold inside."
+
+"Let's open it and see," Sam says. He tries to pull the lock, but it does not move. He looks for the key, but he does not see it.
+
+"Where is the key?" Tom asks. "Maybe someone hid it."
+
+"Maybe we can find it," Sam says. "Let's look around the library."
+
+They look under the chairs, behind the shelves, and in the drawers. They do not find the key. They are sad and tired.
+
+"Maybe we should give up," Tom says. "This book is too hard to open."
+
+"No, we can't give up," Sam says. "We have to study this book. Maybe it has something important inside. Maybe it has a story or a map or a secret."
+
+"But how can we open it?" Tom asks.
+
+Sam thinks for a moment. He has an idea. He runs to the librarian and asks for help.
+
+"Excuse me, can you help us?" Sam says. "We want to study this book, but we don't have the key. Do you know where it is?"
+
+The librarian smiles. She takes the book and looks at it. She recognizes it. It is a very old and special book. She has the key in her pocket.
+
+"Of course, I can help you," she says. "This book is very old and special. It has gold letters and pictures inside. It tells a story about a king and a dragon. It is a very rare and valuable book. I have the key right here."
+
+She takes out the key and opens the lock. She gives the book to Tom and Sam. They open the book and see the gold letters and pictures. They are amazed and happy.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing!" Tom says. "Thank you for helping us."
+
+"You're welcome," the librarian says. "You are very curious and brave. You like to study and learn new things. That is very good. You can study this book for a while, but be careful. It is very old and fragile. Don't tear or stain it."
+
+"We will be careful," Sam says. "Thank you for letting us study this book. It is the best book ever."
+
+They sit down and study the book. They learn the story about the king and the dragon. They see the bright gold letters and pictures. They are very happy. They are the best friends ever.
+Anna was miserable. She wanted to join the egg hunt with the other kids, but she was too sick. She had a bad cough and a hot head. Her mom said she had to stay in bed and drink soup. Anna did not like soup. She liked chocolate eggs and jelly beans.
+
+She heard the other kids laughing and running outside. She looked out the window and saw them finding eggs in the grass and behind the trees. She saw her best friend Lily holding a big basket full of eggs. Anna wished she could be there with her.
+
+She felt a tear roll down her cheek. She hugged her teddy bear and closed her eyes. She hoped she would feel better soon.
+
+Suddenly, she heard a knock on the door. She opened her eyes and saw Lily standing there with a smile. She was holding her basket and a small egg in her hand.
+
+"Hi, Anna," Lily said. "I'm sorry you're sick. I wanted to bring you something. This is for you." She gave Anna the small egg. It was pink and had a sticker of a bunny on it.
+
+Anna smiled and took the egg. She felt a warm feeling in her chest. She thanked Lily and opened the egg. Inside, there was a chocolate bunny and a note. The note said: "You are my best friend. I hope you join me soon. Love, Lily."
+
+Anna felt happy. She hugged Lily and shared her chocolate bunny with her. She told Lily about her teddy bear and her soup. Lily told Anna about the egg hunt and the other kids. They talked and laughed for a while.
+
+Anna was not miserable anymore. She had a good friend who cared for her. She hoped she would join the egg hunt next year. But for now, she was glad to have Lily and her pink egg.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the park. They see an elderly lady walking with a stick. She has a bag of bread in her hand. She wants to feed the ducks in the pond.
+
+"Look, Ben, ducks!" Sara says. "Let's go and see them!"
+
+"OK, Sara, but we need to be quick. Mom said we have to go home soon," Ben says.
+
+They run to the pond and watch the lady throw bread to the ducks. The ducks quack and swim to get the bread. Sara and Ben think they are funny and cute.
+
+"Can we feed the ducks too, please?" Sara asks the lady.
+
+"Sure, dear, you can have some of my bread," the lady says. She smiles and gives them each a piece of bread.
+
+"Thank you, lady!" Sara and Ben say. They throw the bread to the ducks and laugh.
+
+But then, a big dog comes running to the pond. He barks and chases the ducks. The ducks are scared and fly away. The dog jumps into the pond and splashes water everywhere. He sees the lady's bag of bread and grabs it with his teeth. He runs away with the bag.
+
+"Hey, stop, that's my bread!" the lady shouts. She tries to catch the dog, but she is too slow. She trips on her stick and falls to the ground. She hurts her knee and cries.
+
+"Help, help, someone help me!" the lady says.
+
+Sara and Ben are shocked and scared. They don't know what to do. They look around, but they don't see anyone else in the park. They want to help the lady, but they are afraid of the dog. They decide to run away and go home.
+
+They leave the lady alone on the ground, with no bread and no ducks. The lady is sad and angry. She wishes Sara and Ben had stayed and helped her. She thinks they are bad and rude. She hopes someone will come and help her soon. But no one comes. The end.
+Ben liked to jog with his dad. Every day, they jogged around the park and saw the birds, the trees, and the pond. Ben felt happy and strong when he jogged.
+
+One day, dad said, "Ben, today we will jog a little longer. We will go to the big hill and back. It will be fun, but also difficult. Are you ready?"
+
+Ben nodded. He wanted to show dad that he could jog a lot. He put on his shoes and his hat and followed dad out of the door.
+
+They jogged along the path and saw the usual things. But then they came to the big hill. It was very steep and high. Ben felt his legs get tired and his breath get fast. He looked at dad and saw that he was also sweating and panting.
+
+"Come on, Ben, you can do it!" dad cheered. "We are almost there. Think of the yummy dinner we will have when we get home. Mom is making your favorite, spaghetti and meatballs."
+
+Ben liked spaghetti and meatballs. He wanted to eat them with dad and mom. He tried to jog faster and reach the top of the hill. He pushed and pushed and pushed.
+
+Finally, he made it. He saw the park below him and the sun shining. He felt proud and happy. He hugged dad and said, "We did it, dad! We jogged the big hill!"
+
+Dad hugged him back and said, "Yes, we did, Ben! You are amazing! I am so proud of you. Now let's jog back and have our dinner. You earned it, buddy."
+
+They jogged back to their house, smiling and talking. They smelled the spaghetti and meatballs and heard mom say, "Welcome back, my joggers! How was your adventure?"
+
+They told mom everything and sat down to eat. Ben thought it was the best dinner ever. He loved to jog with his dad.
+Lisa and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and clothes. But they do not like to clean up. Their mom is busy. She has to cook and work and do many things.
+
+One day, mom says to Lisa and Ben: "You have to clean your room. It is very messy. Put your toys in the box and your clothes on the hanger. I will come and check later."
+
+Lisa and Ben nod. But they do not want to clean. They want to play. They pick up their toys and throw them in the box. They do not care if they are mixed up. They pick up their clothes and toss them on the hanger. They do not care if they are wrinkled or dirty.
+
+They think they are done. They sit on the bed and smile. They say to each other: "We are very smart. We cleaned our room very fast. Mom will be happy."
+
+But mom is not happy. She comes and sees the room. She sees the toys and the clothes. She is angry. She says to Lisa and Ben: "This is not clean. This is worse. You did not pick up your toys and clothes properly. You have to do it again. And this time, do it right. Or you will not get any dessert."
+
+Lisa and Ben are sad. They do not want to do it again. They do not want to miss dessert. They say to mom: "We are sorry, mom. We will try harder. Please help us."
+
+Mom sighs. She is busy. But she loves Lisa and Ben. She says to them: "Okay. I will help you. But you have to listen and learn. Toys go in the box by type. Clothes go on the hanger by color. And you have to fold them neatly. Do you understand?"
+
+Lisa and Ben nod. They say to mom: "Yes, mom. We understand. Thank you, mom."
+
+Mom smiles. She says to Lisa and Ben: "You are welcome, my loves. Now let's get to work."
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big tree with many nuts on it. They wanted to eat some nuts, but they were too high.
+
+"Look, Lily, there is a peanut!" Tom said, pointing to a nut. "I want to eat it!"
+
+"Me too!" Lily said. "But how can we get it?"
+
+Tom had an idea. He saw a long stick on the ground. He picked it up and said, "I can use this stick to knock down the peanut. You hold the stick with me, Lily."
+
+They both held the stick and walked to the tree. They tried to reach the peanut with the stick, but it was still too high.
+
+"We need to stretch more, Lily!" Tom said. "Stretch your arms and legs!"
+
+They stretched as much as they could, but they still could not touch the peanut.
+
+"Maybe we need to jump, Tom!" Lily said. "Jump and stretch!"
+
+They jumped and stretched, but they still missed the peanut.
+
+They were about to give up, when they heard a voice.
+
+"Hello, little ones. Do you need some help?" It was a friendly squirrel, sitting on a branch. He had a big bushy tail and bright eyes.
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom and Lily said. "We want to eat that peanut, but we can't reach it."
+
+The squirrel smiled and said, "Don't worry, I can help you. I can climb the tree and get the peanut for you. But you have to be brave and catch it when I throw it to you. Can you do that?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They were brave. They waited for the squirrel to climb the tree and get the peanut. They saw him holding the peanut in his mouth and waving his tail.
+
+"Ready, set, go!" The squirrel said, and threw the peanut to them.
+
+Tom and Lily caught the peanut with the stick. They were so happy. They thanked the squirrel and shared the peanut. It was crunchy and yummy.
+
+They made a new friend that day. The squirrel was very nice. He taught them how to climb the tree and find more nuts. They had a lot of fun in the park. They learned that stretching, jumping, and being brave can help them reach their goals.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They had a big sack and a board. They wanted to make a slide.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have an idea!" Tom said. "We can put the board on the sack and slide down."
+
+"Wow, that sounds fun!" Lily said. "Let me help you."
+
+They worked together to lift the board and place it on the sack. They made sure it was stable and not too steep.
+
+"Who goes first?" Tom asked.
+
+"You go first, Tom. You are older and braver," Lily said.
+
+"Okay, here I go!" Tom said. He climbed on the board and slid down. He felt the wind in his hair and the sack under his feet. He laughed and shouted.
+
+"That was awesome!" Tom said. "Do you want to try, Lily?"
+
+"Yes, yes, yes!" Lily said. She ran to the board and slid down. She felt the same thrill as Tom. She smiled and clapped.
+
+"That was beautiful!" Lily said. "Can we do it again?"
+
+"Of course we can!" Tom said. "This is our slide and we can play as much as we want."
+
+They took turns sliding down the board on the sack. They had a lot of fun and felt very happy. They were glad they had each other and their slide.
+Tom and Lily are playing in the garden. They have a big bucket of water and some cups. They like to fill the cups and pour the water on the flowers and the grass.
+
+"Look, Lily, this flower is very wet!" Tom says, holding a cup of water.
+
+"Let me see, Tom!" Lily says, running to him. She leans over the flower and looks at it.
+
+Tom smiles and pours the water on Lily's head. Lily gasps and feels the water run down her face and neck. She feels her ear get wet too.
+
+"Tom, you are naughty!" Lily says, wiping her face. "You made my ear wet!"
+
+Tom laughs and says, "I'm sorry, Lily, I was just playing. Do you want to pour water on me too?"
+
+Lily nods and picks up a cup of water. She runs after Tom and tries to catch him. They splash and giggle and have fun. They don't mind getting wet. They like playing in the water.
+Tom and Anna were twins who liked to pick blueberries in the forest. They had a big basket to carry the blueberries home. One day, they found a bright spot where the blueberries were big and juicy. They filled their basket with blueberries and smiled.
+
+"Let's go home and make a pie with Mommy," Tom said.
+
+"Yes, let's go," Anna said.
+
+But on their way home, they met a big bear. The bear smelled the blueberries and growled. He wanted to eat them. He came closer to Tom and Anna and their basket.
+
+"Go away, bear!" Tom shouted. "These are our blueberries!"
+
+"No, they are mine!" the bear roared. "Give me the basket!"
+
+Tom and Anna were scared. They did not want to lose their blueberries or get hurt by the bear. They looked around and saw a big rock. They had an idea.
+
+"Run, Anna, run!" Tom said. He threw some blueberries at the bear to distract him. Then he and Anna ran behind the rock and hid.
+
+The bear followed them, but he could not see them. He only saw the rock. He tried to push the rock, but it was too heavy. He tried to climb the rock, but it was too slippery. He tried to bite the rock, but it hurt his teeth. He gave up and went away.
+
+Tom and Anna peeked from behind the rock. They saw the bear leave. They were happy and relieved. They still had their basket of blueberries.
+
+"Phew, that was close," Tom said.
+
+"Yes, it was," Anna said. "But we are brave and smart. We saved our blueberries."
+
+They hugged each other and carried their basket home. They made a delicious pie with Mommy and shared it with Daddy. They told him about their adventure in the forest. He was proud of them and gave them a big kiss. They ate the pie and enjoyed the sweet taste of blueberries.
+Lila and Max were best friends. They liked to play in the woods behind their houses. They had a loyal dog named Spot who always followed them. One day, they decided to explore a new part of the woods. They walked and walked until they saw something strange.
+
+"Look, Max, what is that?" Lila asked, pointing to a big wooden house.
+
+"I don't know, Lila. Maybe it's a cabin. Let's go and see," Max said, holding Lila's hand.
+
+They walked closer to the cabin. It looked old and dusty. The door was open. They peeked inside. They saw a table, some chairs, a fireplace, and some books. They also saw a big bed with a quilt.
+
+"Wow, this is cool. Maybe someone lives here," Lila said.
+
+"Or maybe it's a secret hideout. Let's go in and discover more," Max said.
+
+They stepped inside the cabin. Spot followed them. They looked around and touched everything. They found some toys, some clothes, some dishes, and some pictures. They had fun pretending to live in the cabin.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was a car. They ran to the window and saw a man and a woman getting out of the car. They had bags and suitcases.
+
+"Oh no, Max, they are coming here. They must be the owners of the cabin. What do we do?" Lila whispered.
+
+"Don't worry, Lila. We can hide under the bed. Maybe they won't see us," Max whispered back.
+
+They quickly crawled under the bed and pulled the quilt over them. Spot joined them. They hoped the man and the woman would not find them. They were scared and nervous. They held each other's hands and waited.
+Lily liked to play dress-up with her dolls. She had many clothes for them, in different colors and styles. She liked to make them look pretty and fashionable. She put on hats, scarves, shoes and dresses for her dolls.
+
+Tommy was Lily's brother. He was older and bigger than Lily. He liked to tease her and make her angry. He did not like dolls or dress-up. He liked cars and trucks and planes. He thought dolls were silly and boring.
+
+One day, Lily was playing dress-up with her dolls in her room. She was having fun and talking to them. Tommy came in and saw her. He decided to tease her. He grabbed one of her dolls and said, "Look at this ugly doll! She has a funny hat and a stupid dress. She looks like a clown!" He laughed and ran away with the doll.
+
+Lily was very sad and angry. She shouted, "Give me back my doll! She is not ugly, she is beautiful and fashionable! You are mean and rude!" She ran after Tommy and tried to get her doll back.
+
+Tommy ran to the kitchen, where Mom was making cookies. He hid behind Mom and said, "Mom, look at this doll! Lily thinks she is fashionable, but she is not. She is ridiculous!" He showed Mom the doll and laughed.
+
+Mom looked at the doll and at Lily, who was crying. She said, "Tommy, that is not nice. You should not tease your sister or take her things. Lily loves her dolls and likes to play dress-up. That is her way of being creative and having fun. You have your own toys and hobbies, and you should respect hers. Now, give her back her doll and say you are sorry."
+
+Tommy felt ashamed and sorry. He gave Lily back her doll and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was wrong. Your doll is not ugly, she is pretty and fashionable. You can play dress-up with her as much as you want. I won't tease you again."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged her doll. She said, "Thank you, Tommy. I'm sorry I shouted at you. You can play with your cars and trucks and planes as much as you want. I won't bother you again."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "That's good. I'm proud of you both. Now, why don't you come and have some cookies? They are yummy and warm. You can share them and be nice to each other."
+
+Lily and Tommy agreed. They went to the table and had some cookies. They were yummy and warm. They shared them and were nice to each other. They learned to respect and appreciate each other's differences and interests. They were happy and loved.
+Lily and Ben were twins. They liked to play with their toys and draw pictures. One day, they found a big box of crayons in the closet. They were very happy and took them to the table.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a red crayon. I can draw a fire truck," Ben said.
+
+"I have a purple crayon. I can draw a unicorn," Lily said.
+
+They started to draw on a big sheet of paper. They drew many things: cars, flowers, stars, animals. They had fun and talked to each other.
+
+But then, Ben saw a shiny crayon in the box. It was gold. He had never seen a gold crayon before. He thought it was very rare and special. He wanted to use it.
+
+"Hey, Lily, can I have the gold crayon?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, Ben, it's mine. I found it first," Lily said.
+
+"Please, Lily, just for a little bit. I want to draw a crown," Ben said.
+
+"No, Ben, it's mine. Go away," Lily said.
+
+She ignored Ben and kept drawing with the gold crayon. She drew a big castle and a princess. She did not share or look at Ben.
+
+Ben was sad and angry. He did not like Lily anymore. He did not want to play with her or talk to her. He ignored Lily and kept drawing with his red crayon. He drew a big dragon and a knight. He did not share or look at Lily.
+
+They drew and drew until the paper was full. But they did not have fun. They did not smile or laugh. They did not say sorry or hug. They just ignored each other.
+
+Mom came to see what they were doing. She saw the big picture on the table. She saw the fire truck, the unicorn, the castle, the dragon, and many other things. She thought it was very beautiful and colorful. She was proud of Lily and Ben.
+
+"Wow, what a wonderful picture! You two are very talented and creative. Can I hang it on the wall?" Mom asked.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at Mom. They looked at the picture. They looked at each other. They felt ashamed and sorry. They realized they had been mean and selfish. They did not want to ignore each other. They wanted to be friends and siblings.
+
+"Yes, Mom, you can hang it on the wall. But first, can we say sorry and hug?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, Lily, we can. I'm sorry for taking the gold crayon. Can I share it with you?" Ben asked.
+
+"I'm sorry for not letting you use the gold crayon. Can I share it with you?" Lily asked.
+
+They said sorry and hugged. They smiled and laughed. They shared the gold crayon and drew a big heart on the picture. They were happy and loved.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them too. She hung the picture on the wall. She said it was the most rare and special picture in the world.
+Tim and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big green slide. Mia wants to go on the slide, but Tim is scared.
+
+"Come on, Tim, it is fun!" Mia says. "You can test the slide with me. I will hold your hand."
+
+Tim shakes his head. "No, no, no. The slide is too high. I will fall and hurt myself."
+
+Mia smiles. "You will not fall, Tim. The slide is safe. Look, there are steps to go up. You can go one step at a time. And there is a mat to land on. You will be fine."
+
+Tim looks at the slide. He sees the steps and the mat. He sees Mia holding out her hand. He thinks for a moment. He wants to be brave. He wants to have fun. He nods his head.
+
+"OK, Mia, I will test the slide with you. But you have to hold my hand."
+
+Mia claps her hands. "Yay, Tim, you are brave! Come on, let's go!"
+
+They hold hands and walk to the slide. They climb the steps one by one. They reach the top. They sit on the slide. They look down. They feel excited.
+
+"Ready, Tim?" Mia asks.
+
+"Ready, Mia!" Tim answers.
+
+They push off and slide down. They go fast and feel the wind. They laugh and scream. They land on the mat. They are happy.
+
+They hug each other. "That was fun, Tim!" Mia says.
+
+"That was fun, Mia!" Tim says. "Thank you for helping me test the slide. You are a good friend."
+
+Mia smiles. "You are welcome, Tim. You are a good friend too. And you are brave. You can do anything if you try."
+
+They hold hands and run to the swings. They play some more. They have a good day.
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: The story teaches that it is good to try new things, to overcome fear, and to help and support friends.
+Lily loved grapes. She liked to eat them one by one, or make a necklace with them, or pretend they were tiny balls. But her mom said she could only have some grapes after dinner, not before. She had to permit Lily to eat grapes, or Lily would get a tummy ache.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big bowl of grapes on the kitchen table. They looked so juicy and sweet. She wanted to have some right now. She looked around and saw that her mom was busy in the laundry room. She thought, maybe I can have just one grape. No one will know.
+
+She climbed on a chair and reached for the bowl. She picked a grape and popped it in her mouth. It was delicious. She picked another one, and another one, and another one. She ate so many grapes that she felt full and sleepy. She forgot about dinner and climbed down from the chair. She went to her room and lay down on her bed. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
+
+Soon, her mom came to the kitchen and saw the empty bowl. She knew that Lily had eaten all the grapes. She was angry and worried. She went to Lily's room and saw her sleeping on her bed. She shook her gently and said, "Lily, wake up. You ate too many grapes. You have to eat dinner and drink some water. You might get sick."
+
+But Lily did not wake up. She was too sleepy. She had a bad dream about grapes. They were chasing her and biting her. She cried and tossed and turned. Her mom felt sorry for her and hugged her. She said, "Lily, I'm sorry. I should have put the grapes away. But you have to listen to me. You can't eat too many grapes. They are good for you, but only in moderation. Next time, I will permit you to have some grapes, but only a few. OK?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "OK, mom. I'm sorry. I love you." She snuggled with her mom and fell asleep again. She hoped that the grapes would leave her alone. She learned her lesson. She would never eat too many grapes again.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they have a task. They have to make a card for their teacher. Their teacher is very nice and helps them learn.
+
+Sara and Ben find some paper, crayons, stickers and glue. They start to make the card. Sara draws a big heart and writes "We love you". Ben draws a flower and writes "You are the best". They put some stickers and glue on the card to make it fancy.
+

+Tom and Anna were playing in the garden. They were thirsty, so they went to the kitchen to get some water. They saw a big jug on the table. It was full of orange juice.
+
+"Can we borrow some juice?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sure, why not?" Anna said. "But we have to put it back later."
+
+They poured some juice into their cups and drank it. But it tasted very bad. It was sour and bitter and disgusting.
+
+"Yuck!" Tom spat. "This juice is bad!"
+
+"Yuck!" Anna agreed. "It is not juice, it is vinegar!"
+
+They heard a loud voice behind them. It was Mom.
+
+"What are you doing with my jug?" Mom asked. "That is not juice, that is vinegar! I need it for cooking!"

+
+Anna says, "I can cut the bread. I am good with the knife." She takes the knife and tries to cut the bread, but it is too hard. She pushes harder and harder, but the knife slips and cuts her finger. She cries, "Ow! Ow! Ow!"
+
+Ben says, "Oh no, Anna! Are you okay?" He runs to her and sees the blood. He is scared and does not know what to do. He remembers that his mom always has a band-aid in her purse. He says, "Wait here, Anna. I will get a band-aid for you. I am reliable. I will be back soon."
+
+He leaves the kitchen and looks for his mom's purse. He finds it in the living room and opens it. He sees many things inside, but he does not see a band-aid.

+
+He hears his mom coming home. He runs to the door and says, "Mom! Mom! Anna cut her finger. She needs a band-aid. Do you have one?"
+
+His mom says, "Oh dear, what happened?" She sees the knife and the jelly on the table. She says, "Did you try to make a sandwich?" She hugs Ben and says, "You are a good friend, Ben. You are reliable. But you should not use the knife by yourself. It is dangerous. Let me help you."
+
+She takes Ben and Anna to the bathroom and washes Anna's finger. She puts a band-aid on it and says, "There, there. It will be okay. It is just a small cut. It will heal soon." She kisses Anna and says, "You are brave, Anna. You did not cry too much. But you should be careful with the knife. It is sharp. Let me show you how to cut the bread safely."
+
+She takes them back to the kitchen and makes a sandwich for them. She cuts the bread with the knife and spreads the butter and the jelly on it. She says, "See, this is how you cut the bread. You hold the knife like this and you move it like this. You do not push too hard or too fast. You watch your fingers and you ask for help if you need it."
+
+She gives them the sandwich and says, "Here you go. Enjoy your snack. You are good friends. You take care of each other. You are reliable. I am proud of you."

+"Wow, look at that trophy!" Lily said. "I wonder who it belongs to."
+
+"Maybe it's for the best slider in the park," Ben said. "Let's try to slide faster and better than anyone else and see if we can get it."

+
+Tom felt ashamed and scared. He stopped the car and untied the doll. He gave it back to Lily.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I was wrong. I won't do it again," Tom said.
+
+Lily took her doll and hugged it. She looked at Tom and said, "It's okay, Tom. I forgive you. But don't be rude again."

+
+Lila walked slowly over the bridge, holding her teddy bear. She reached the other side and hugged Ben. "Thank you, Ben, that was fun!" she said.
+
+They heard a loud noise from the sky. They looked up and saw a big plane flying over them. The plane had a long tail of white smoke behind it. It looked like a giant pencil drawing on the blue paper.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Lila said, pointing to the plane.
+
+"What is that?" Ben asked, curious.
+
+"That's a plane, Ben. It flies in the air. It takes people to faraway places." Lila said, remembering what her mom had told her.
+
+"Where do you think it is going?" Ben asked, wondering.
+
+"I don't know, Ben. Maybe to the moon, or to the sea, or to the mountains." Lila said, imagining.
+
+They watched the plane until it disappeared behind the clouds. They saw some sparks of light in the sky. They were stars, shining bright.
+
+"Look, Lila, stars!" Ben said, excited.
+
+"Wow, Ben, stars!" Lila said, amazed.
+
+"They are very pretty, Lila. They twinkle like diamonds." Ben said, admiring.
+
+"They are very pretty, Ben. They make me happy." Lila said, smiling.
+
+They lay down on the grass and looked at the stars. They felt tired after playing so much. They decided to rest for a while. They closed their eyes and cuddled their teddy bears. They fell asleep, dreaming of planes and bridges and stars.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They liked to climb the big slide and go down fast. They liked to swing high and low. They liked to run and jump and laugh.
+
+One day, they saw a new thing in the park. It was a big rock with a hole in it. It looked like a cave. Lily and Ben wanted to see what was inside. They ran to the rock and climbed on it. They looked at the hole. It was dark and scary.
+
+"Let's go in," Lily said. She was brave and curious.
+
+"I don't know," Ben said. He was scared and careful. "It might be dangerous. There might be bugs or snakes or monsters."
+
+"Don't be silly," Lily said. "There are no monsters. Come on, it will be fun. I will go first and you follow me."
+
+Lily crawled into the hole. She felt the rock rub her knees and elbows. She saw a little light at the end of the hole. She smiled and called Ben.
+
+"Ben, come on, it's not so bad. There is a secret place here. It's cool and pretty. You will like it."
+
+Ben heard Lily's voice. He wanted to be with her. He wanted to see the secret place. He took a deep breath and crawled into the hole. He felt the rock rub his knees and elbows. He saw a little light at the end of the hole. He followed Lily.
+
+They came out of the hole and saw a beautiful garden. There were flowers and trees and birds and butterflies. There was a pond with fish and frogs. There was a bench with a book and a toy. Lily and Ben were amazed and happy.
+
+"Wow, this is awesome," Lily said. "This is our secret place. No one else knows about it. We can play here and read and have fun."
+
+"Yes, this is awesome," Ben said. "But we have to be honest. We have to tell our moms and dads where we are. They might be worried. They might think we are lost."
+
+Lily nodded. She knew Ben was right. She loved their secret place, but she loved their moms and dads more. She hugged Ben and said, "You are a good friend. You are honest and kind. Let's go back and tell them. Then we can come back and play some more."
+
+They crawled back into the hole and climbed down the rock. They ran to their moms and dads and told them about their secret place. Their moms and dads were surprised and proud. They said they could go back and play, but they had to be careful and come back soon. Lily and Ben thanked them and ran back to their secret place. They played and read and had fun. They were happy and honest. They were best friends.
+Anna and Ben were friends who liked to play together. One day, Anna got a big package from her grandma. She was very happy and wanted to show Ben what was inside.
+
+"Look, Ben, I got a package! Do you want to see?" Anna asked.
+
+"Yes, please, Anna. What is it?" Ben said.
+
+Anna opened the package and took out a beautiful doll. It had long hair, a pretty dress, and shiny shoes. Anna hugged the doll and smiled.
+
+"Wow, Anna, your doll is so nice. Can I hold it?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, Ben, this is my doll. You can't touch it. It is only for me," Anna said.
+
+Ben felt envious of Anna's doll. He wanted to have a doll like that too. He was angry at Anna for not sharing. He decided to do something mean.
+
+When Anna was not looking, Ben grabbed the doll and ran away. He laughed and thought he was clever.
+
+"Hey, Ben, give me back my doll! That is not fair!" Anna shouted.
+
+But Ben did not listen. He ran to his house and locked the door. He put the doll on his bed and played with it.
+
+Anna followed Ben and knocked on his door. She cried and begged him to return her doll. But Ben did not open the door. He ignored Anna and kept playing with the doll.
+
+Anna was very sad and angry. She had lost her friend and her doll. She wished she had never opened the package. She wished Ben had never seen the doll. She wished she could have her doll back. But it was too late. Ben had taken it and would not give it back. Anna went home and cried. She had no one to play with. She had a bad day.
+Tom and Anna like to play with blocks. They build many structures with different shapes and colors. Sometimes they make houses, sometimes they make towers, sometimes they make bridges.
+
+One day, they decide to make a big structure together. They use all the blocks they have and work hard. They are happy and proud of their structure. It is taller than them and has many windows and doors.
+
+"Look at our structure!" Tom says. "It is the best one ever!"
+
+"Yes, it is!" Anna agrees. "Can we carry it to the living room and show mom and dad?"
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He knows the structure is heavy and fragile. He is afraid it might fall apart if they move it.
+
+"I don't know," he says. "Maybe it is too hard to carry. Maybe we should leave it here and call mom and dad to come and see it."
+
+Anna shakes her head. She wants to carry the structure. She thinks it will be fun and exciting.
+
+"No, let's carry it!" she says. "We can do it if we are careful and fast. Come on, help me!"
+
+She grabs one side of the structure and tries to lift it. Tom hesitates, but he does not want to disappoint Anna. He grabs the other side and tries to lift it too. Together, they carry the structure out of their room.
+
+They walk slowly and carefully, trying not to drop the structure. They are almost at the living room when they hear a loud noise. It is their dog, Rex. He is running towards them, barking and wagging his tail. He wants to play with them and their structure.
+
+"Rex, no!" Tom and Anna shout. "Go away! We are carrying something!"
+
+But Rex does not listen. He is too excited. He jumps on them and tries to bite the blocks. The structure wobbles and shakes. Tom and Anna lose their balance and drop the structure. It falls to the floor and breaks into pieces.
+
+Tom and Anna are sad and angry. They look at their broken structure and cry. Rex looks at them and whines. He does not understand why they are upset. He thinks he was just playing.
+
+Mom and dad hear the noise and come to see what happened. They see the mess and the tears. They hug Tom and Anna and comfort them.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids," mom says. "Your structure was very beautiful. But it was too hard to carry. Next time, maybe you can leave it in your room or take a picture of it."
+
+"Or maybe you can build a smaller one that is easier to carry," dad suggests. "Or maybe you can build one with Rex. He likes blocks too, you know."
+
+Tom and Anna stop crying and look at Rex. He licks their faces and wags his tail. He looks sorry and happy at the same time.
+
+"Maybe," Tom says.
+
+"Maybe," Anna says.
+
+They smile and hug Rex. They decide to forgive him and play with him. They still like to build structures, but they also like to play with their dog. They learn to be careful and fast, but also to have fun and share.
+Lily and Mom went to the market. Lily saw a big red ball. She wanted the ball very much. She asked Mom to buy the ball for her.
+
+Mom said, "No, Lily. We have no money to pay for the ball. We need to pay for food and milk and eggs. The ball is too much."
+
+Lily was sad. She cried and cried. She did not listen to Mom. She ran away from Mom and took the ball. She hid behind a big box.
+
+Mom looked for Lily. She was scared. She called Lily's name. She did not see Lily. She saw a man with a big bag. The man saw the ball. He liked the ball. He took the ball and put it in his bag. He ran away.
+
+Lily came out from behind the box. She saw the man with the bag. She saw the ball in the bag. She screamed and screamed. She wanted the ball back. She ran after the man. She did not see the car. The car was fast. The car hit Lily. Lily fell down. She did not get up. She was hurt. She was bad.
+
+Mom heard Lily scream. She saw Lily on the road. She saw the car. She saw the blood. She ran to Lily. She cried and cried. She hugged Lily. She said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I love you, Lily." She was too late. Lily was gone. Lily was bad.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play in the garden. They see many plants and flowers. They also see a big green bean. Sara picks the bean and shows it to Tom.
+
+"Look, Tom, a bean!" Sara says.
+
+Tom looks at the bean. He thinks it is a funny bean. It is not regular. It is very long and curly. It looks like a snake.
+
+"Ha ha, Sara, that is not a bean. That is a snake!" Tom says.
+
+Sara is scared. She does not like snakes. She drops the bean and runs away. Tom runs after her.
+
+"Wait, Sara, wait! It is not a snake. It is a joke. I was kidding. It is a bean. A silly bean!" Tom says.
+
+Sara stops and turns around. She sees Tom holding the bean. He smiles and winks. He is not scared. He is playing.
+
+Sara understands. She is not scared anymore. She is happy. She laughs and runs back to Tom.
+
+"Tom, you are silly. You made me scared. But it is a funny joke. You are a funny friend. I like you." Sara says.
+
+Tom and Sara hug. They are happy. They laugh and play with the bean. They have fun in the garden. They are good friends.
+Lily and Sam went to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and giraffes. They liked the animals and wanted to see more.
+
+They came to a big pool of water. In the water, there was a hippo. The hippo was very big and had a big mouth. Lily and Sam wanted to see the hippo up close.
+
+They ran to the fence and looked at the hippo. The hippo saw them and opened his big mouth. He made a loud noise and splashed water at them. Lily and Sam got wet and scared. They ran back to Mom and Dad.
+
+Mom and Dad hugged them and dried them with a towel. They said, "That was a rude hippo. He should not splash water at people. He should be nice and share his pool."
+
+Lily and Sam nodded. They said, "We don't like the rude hippo. He should stop being mean. We like the nice animals better."
+
+They left the hippo and went to see the penguins. The penguins were cute and funny. They slid on the ice and played with each other. Lily and Sam smiled and laughed. They had fun at the zoo.
+Lily was a clumsy girl. She liked to play with her toys, but she often dropped them or broke them. One day, she had a new toy. It was a big doll with long hair and a pretty dress. Lily was very happy. She wanted to show her toy to her friend, Anna.
+
+She called Anna on the phone. "Hi, Anna. Do you want to come to my house? I have a new toy. It is very nice. You can play with it too."
+
+Anna said yes. She liked to play with Lily. She said, "OK, Lily. I will come soon. Thank you for inviting me."
+
+Lily waited for Anna. She put her new toy on the bed. She was careful not to drop it. She wanted to make her hair and dress look nice. She used a comb and a ribbon. She said to her toy, "You are very pretty. Anna will like you too."
+
+But Lily was clumsy. She pulled the hair too hard. The hair came off the toy. Lily was shocked. She said, "Oh no! What did I do? I broke my new toy. Anna will not like it. She will be sad."
+
+She heard a knock on the door. It was Anna. Lily did not know what to do. She hid the toy under the pillow. She opened the door. She said, "Hi, Anna. Come in. I have a new toy. But it is sleeping. We have to be quiet."
+
+Anna said, "OK, Lily. I will be quiet. Can I see your new toy?"
+
+Lily said, "No, no. You cannot see it. It is sleeping. We have to wait. Let's play with something else."
+
+Anna was curious. She said, "But Lily, I want to see your new toy. You said it was very nice. Please, can I see it?"
+
+Lily said, "No, no. You cannot see it. It is sleeping. We have to wait. Let's play with something else."
+
+Anna was not happy. She said, "Lily, you are not being nice. You invited me to play with your new toy. But you are hiding it from me. Why are you hiding it? Is there something wrong with it?"
+
+Lily felt bad. She said, "I'm sorry, Anna. I'm not hiding it. I'm just... I'm just..."
+
+She could not lie. She said, "I'm just clumsy. I broke my new toy. I pulled the hair off. Look."
+
+She showed Anna the toy under the pillow. The toy had no hair. It looked funny. Lily said, "I'm sorry, Anna. I wanted to show you my new toy. But I broke it. Do you still want to play with me?"
+
+Anna looked at the toy. She looked at Lily. She saw that Lily was sad. She said, "It's OK, Lily. I'm sorry you broke your new toy. But I still want to play with you. You are my friend. And your toy is still nice. It has a pretty dress. And we can make new hair for it. We can use yarn or paper or anything. It will be fun."
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Thank you, Anna. You are very kind. You are my friend too. And you are right. We can make new hair for my toy. It will be fun."
+
+They hugged. They played. They made new hair for the toy. They had a good time. They were not clumsy. They were happy.
+Lily likes to do yoga with her mom. Yoga is when you make shapes with your body and breathe slowly. Lily thinks yoga is fun and good for her. She likes to sit on her mat and stretch her arms and legs.
+
+One day, Lily and her mom go to a big room with many other people who do yoga. Lily is excited to see so many mats and shapes. She finds a spot next to her mom and sits on her mat. She smiles at the people around her.
+
+But one lady does not smile back. She looks at Lily with a mean face and says, "You are too little to do yoga. You will make noise and bother us. Go away and play somewhere else."
+
+Lily feels sad and scared. She does not understand why the lady is so rude. She did not do anything wrong. She just wants to do yoga with her mom. She looks at her mom for help.
+
+Her mom hugs her and says, "Don't listen to her, Lily. You are welcome to do yoga with me. You are a good and quiet girl. She is the one who is rude and noisy. She does not know how to be kind and share. Come on, let's do some yoga and have fun."
+
+Lily nods and wipes her tears. She sits on her mat again and follows her mom's moves. She feels better and happy. She does not care about the rude lady anymore. She enjoys doing yoga with her mom and the other nice people. She thinks yoga is fun and good for her.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hill with a lot of flowers. They wanted to climb the hill and see what was on the other side.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's go up the hill!" Tom said.
+
+"OK, Tom, but be careful. The hill is very high and steep," Lily said.
+
+They started to climb the hill, holding hands. They saw many colors and smells. They saw bees and butterflies and birds. They were happy and curious.
+
+But when they reached the top of the hill, they saw something that made them stop and stare. It was a big, black, furry animal. It had long ears and a fluffy tail. It was eating some grass. It looked at them with big, brown eyes.
+
+"Tom, what is that?" Lily whispered.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. It looks like a big bunny. But it is too big to be a bunny," Tom whispered back.
+
+The animal heard them and made a soft noise. It came closer to them, slowly and gently. It sniffed them and licked their faces. It was warm and soft and friendly.
+
+"Hi, big bunny. You are very nice. Do you want to play with us?" Tom asked.
+
+The animal nodded and wagged its tail. It nudged them with its nose and invited them to follow it.
+
+"OK, big bunny. We will play with you. But we have to go back soon. Our mom is waiting for us," Lily said.
+
+The animal understood and led them to a sunny spot on the hill. There were more flowers and grass and a small pond. The animal showed them how to roll on the ground and splash in the water. It was fun and harmless. Tom and Lily laughed and hugged the animal.
+
+They played for a while, then they said goodbye to the animal. They thanked it for being so kind and friendly. They asked it to come back and play with them again. The animal agreed and waved its paw.
+
+Tom and Lily ran down the hill, holding hands. They were happy and excited. They had made a new friend. They told their mom about the big bunny. She smiled and hugged them. She was glad they had a good time. She was proud they were brave and polite. She accepted their story and their joy.
+Sam and Lily liked to play with their toy cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They liked to drive them on the floor, on the table, and on the couch. Sometimes they made noises like the cars, like vroom, beep, and honk.
+
+One day, they saw a big cage in the living room. It was new and shiny. It had bars and a door. They wondered what was inside. They went closer and saw a bird. The bird was yellow and green. It had a long tail and a sharp beak. It looked at them with bright eyes.
+
+"Hello, bird!" Sam said. "What is your name?"
+
+The bird did not answer. It opened its beak and made a loud noise. It sounded like a car horn. Sam and Lily jumped back. They were scared.
+
+"Beep! Beep! Beep!" the bird said.
+
+"Wow, the bird can talk!" Lily said. "But why is it so loud?"
+
+"Maybe it wants to play with us," Sam said. "Maybe it likes cars too."
+
+Sam had an idea. He took his red car and drove it near the cage. He made a vroom noise. He hoped the bird would like it.
+
+But the bird did not like it. It made a louder noise. It sounded like a siren. It flapped its wings and shook its head.
+
+"Woo! Woo! Woo!" the bird said.
+
+"Stop it, bird!" Sam said. "You are too loud! You are hurting my ears!"
+
+Lily had another idea. She took her blue car and drove it away from the cage. She made a beep noise. She hoped the bird would follow her.
+
+But the bird did not follow her. It made an even louder noise. It sounded like a train. It bit the bars and kicked the door.
+
+"Choo! Choo! Choo!" the bird said.
+
+"Go away, bird!" Lily said. "You are too loud! You are making a mess!"
+
+Sam and Lily did not like the bird. They did not want to play with it. They ran away from the cage. They took their cars and hid under the bed. They were sad and angry.
+
+"Who brought this bird here?" Sam asked.
+
+"I don't know," Lily said. "But I wish they would take it back."
+Lily liked to collect things. She had a big box of shells, rocks, feathers and stickers. She wanted to collect more things. One day, she saw a rabbit in the park. It was white and fluffy and had long ears. Lily thought it was very pretty. She wanted to collect the rabbit.
+
+She ran after the rabbit and tried to catch it. The rabbit was scared and ran away. Lily followed it to the bushes. She reached out her hand and grabbed the rabbit by the tail. The rabbit squeaked and bit her finger. Lily let go of the rabbit and cried.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" she shouted. "Bad rabbit, bad rabbit!"
+
+A man came out of the bushes. He was holding a basket and a carrot. He looked angry. He was the rabbit's owner.
+
+"What are you doing?" he asked Lily. "Why did you try to take my rabbit?"
+
+Lily was embarrassed. She did not know what to say. She had done something wrong.
+
+"I-I-I wanted to collect it," she said in a small voice.
+
+The man shook his head. He picked up his rabbit and put it in the basket. He gave Lily a stern look.
+
+"You can't collect animals," he said. "Animals are not things. They are alive and have feelings. They need care and love. You hurt my rabbit and yourself. You should be sorry."
+
+Lily felt ashamed. She knew the man was right. She had been selfish and greedy. She had not thought about the rabbit's needs. She had not been kind.
+
+"I'm sorry," she said. "I'm sorry, Mr. Man. I'm sorry, rabbit."
+
+The man nodded. He walked away with his basket and his carrot. He did not forgive Lily. He did not want to see her again.
+
+Lily learned a lesson. She learned that collecting things is not as important as respecting animals. She learned that being kind and gentle is better than being rude and rough. She learned that some things are not meant to be collected.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a secret place under a big tree. They move the leaves and find a hole. They go inside and see lovely things. They see a bird's nest, a shiny stone, and a soft blanket.
+
+One day, they go to the park and see a big truck. The truck has a loud noise. It moves the dirt and the grass. Anna and Ben are scared. They run to their secret place. They want to hide and be safe.
+
+But when they move the leaves, they see a big problem. The truck has moved their hole. Their secret place is gone. They cannot see their lovely things. They are very sad and angry.
+
+"Hey, stop!" Ben shouts at the truck. "You took our place! You took our things! Give them back!"
+
+The truck does not hear Ben. It keeps moving the dirt and the grass. Anna and Ben feel helpless. They do not know what to do.
+
+Then, they see a man. The man works for the truck. He has a hat and a shovel. He sees Anna and Ben. He smiles and walks to them.
+
+"Hello, kids," he says. "What are you doing here?"
+
+Anna and Ben tell him about their secret place. They tell him about their lovely things. They ask him to help them.
+
+The man listens and nods. He says he is sorry. He says he did not know. He says he is making a new park. He says he has a surprise for them.
+
+He takes them to the truck. He shows them a big box. He opens the box and gives them their lovely things. He also gives them some new things. He gives them a book, a ball, and a toy truck.
+
+"Here you go, kids," he says. "These are for you. I hope you like them. And I hope you like the new park. It will have a slide, a swing, and a sandbox. You can play there and have fun."
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They thank the man. They hug their lovely things. They look at the new park. They think it will be nice. They still miss their secret place, but they have each other. They are still friends. They smile and move to the new park. They want to try the slide, the swing, and the sandbox. They want to make new secrets.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had a big sunflower that they watered every day. They wanted to see how tall it would grow. They measured it with a stick and marked it with a crayon.
+
+One day, they saw a big envelope in the mail. It had their names on it and a picture of a sunflower. They opened it and found a letter and a packet of seeds. The letter said: "Dear Tom and Lily, I am your grandpa. I live far away, but I love you very much. I heard you like sunflowers, so I sent you some seeds. Plant them in your garden and watch them grow. They will make you happy. Love, Grandpa."
+
+Tom and Lily were very excited. They ran to the garden and dug some holes. They put the seeds in the holes and covered them with dirt. They watered them and waited for them to grow. They hoped they would be as big as their sunflower.
+
+But the next day, they saw something terrible. Their sunflower was gone. Someone had cut it and taken it away. They cried and cried. They felt very sad and angry. Who would do such a stupid thing?
+
+They looked around and saw a trail of petals. They followed it and found their sunflower. It was in the hands of a boy. He was smiling and holding it up. He said: "Look what I found! A giant sunflower! It's mine now!"
+
+Tom and Lily were very mad. They ran to the boy and shouted: "That's our sunflower! You stole it! Give it back!"
+
+The boy laughed and said: "No way! It's mine! I saw it in your garden and I liked it. It's too big for you anyway. You don't deserve it."
+
+Tom and Lily tried to grab the sunflower, but the boy was stronger. He pushed them away and ran off. He said: "Ha ha! Losers! I have the best sunflower in the world!"
+
+Tom and Lily felt very bad. They had lost their sunflower and their grandpa's seeds. They had nothing left. They went back to their garden and sat on the ground. They hugged each other and cried.
+
+But then, they saw something amazing. The seeds they had planted had sprouted. They had tiny green leaves and stems. They were alive and growing. They looked at each other and smiled. They said: "Look! Our grandpa's sunflowers! They are growing! They will be big and beautiful soon!"
+
+They felt happy and hopeful. They thanked their grandpa for his gift. They watered the sprouts and watched them grow. They knew they would have many sunflowers in their garden. They knew they would be bigger and better than the boy's sunflower. They knew they would make their grandpa proud. They knew they were not losers. They were winners.
+Tommy had a large journal that he liked to draw in. He drew cars and trucks and animals and stars. He was very proud of his journal and showed it to his mom and dad every day.
+
+One day, his little sister Lily saw his journal on the table. She wanted to play with it. She took it and opened it. She saw all the drawings that Tommy had made. She did not like them. She took a crayon and scribbled over them. She made them messy and ugly.
+
+Tommy came back and saw what Lily had done. He was very angry and sad. He shouted at Lily.
+
+"Give me back my journal! You ruined it! You are a bad sister! I hate you!"
+
+Lily was scared and started to cry. She dropped the journal and ran to her mom. She hugged her and said she was sorry.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Tommy and Lily and the journal. She understood what had happened. She was not happy. She picked up the journal and looked at it.
+
+"Oh, Tommy, I'm sorry. Your journal is very nice. Lily should not have done that. She did not know how much you liked it. She is still very small. She did not mean to hurt you."
+
+She gave the journal to Tommy and hugged him. She said she would help him fix it. She asked him to calm down and forgive Lily.
+
+Tommy was still angry, but he felt a little better. He hugged his mom and said he loved her. He looked at Lily and saw that she was sorry. He did not hate her. He loved her too. He said he forgave her.
+
+Lily smiled and said thank you. She said she loved him too. She said she would not touch his journal again. She asked him to show her his drawings.
+
+Tommy nodded and said okay. He opened his journal and showed her his drawings. He told her what they were. She listened and said they were nice. They started to talk and laugh.
+
+Mom smiled and said they were good kids. She said she loved them both. She said they should always be kind and share. She said they should always love each other.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big black bird on a tree. It was a raven. Anna wanted to look at it closer. She said to Ben, "Let's go and see the raven. Maybe it has something shiny in its beak."
+
+Ben was scared of the raven. He said to Anna, "No, let's not go. The raven is mean and ugly. It makes loud noises and eats disgusting things. It might bite us or scratch us with its claws."
+
+Anna did not listen to Ben. She said, "You are silly. The raven is not mean or ugly. It is smart and beautiful. It has shiny feathers and a sharp beak. It can fly and sing. I want to be its friend."
+
+Anna ran to the tree and climbed up. She reached out her hand to touch the raven. The raven did not like Anna. It did not want to be her friend. It snapped at her hand and made a loud noise. Anna was scared and hurt. She cried and fell down from the tree.
+
+Ben ran to Anna and helped her. He said, "Are you okay, Anna? I told you not to go to the raven. The raven is not nice. It is mean and ugly. It does not like us. We should stay away from it."
+
+Anna said, "I'm sorry, Ben. You were right. The raven is mean and ugly. It does not like us. It bit me and made me cry. It is not smart and beautiful. It is disgusting. I don't want to be its friend anymore."
+
+Ben hugged Anna and said, "It's okay, Anna. I'm glad you are okay. You are my friend. I like you. You are nice and pretty. You are smart and brave. You can play with me and have fun. We don't need the raven."
+
+Anna smiled and said, "Thank you, Ben. You are my friend. I like you. You are nice and handsome. You are smart and kind. You can play with me and have fun. We don't need the raven."
+
+They went back to their toys and played happily. They learned a lesson. They learned to listen to each other and to be careful of strangers. They learned to appreciate each other and to be happy with what they have. They learned to avoid the raven and to enjoy the park.
+Tom and Anna liked to play with their toy soldiers. They had many soldiers of different colors and shapes. They made forts and bridges and hills with their blocks and books. They pretended that their soldiers were fighting a big war.
+
+One day, Tom and Anna decided to play with their toy soldiers outside. They found a big pile of dry leaves and sticks. They thought it would be fun to make a fire with their matches. They did not know that fire was very dangerous and could hurt them and their toys.
+
+They lit a match and threw it on the pile of leaves and sticks. The pile caught fire and made a big flame. The flame was bright and hot and loud. It scared Tom and Anna. They saw their toy soldiers near the flame. They wanted to save them, but the flame was too big and too close.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tom and Anna shouted. "Our soldiers are burning!"
+
+Their mom heard their shouts and ran outside. She saw the fire and the children. She was very angry and very scared. She grabbed a bucket of water and threw it on the fire. The fire went out and made a lot of smoke.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom asked. "Do you know how dangerous fire is? You could have burned yourselves and the house and the trees! You are very naughty!"
+
+Tom and Anna felt very sorry and very ashamed. They knew they had done a bad thing. They looked at their toy soldiers. Some of them were black and melted and broken. They felt very sad.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom," Tom and Anna said. "We wanted to play with our soldiers and make a fire. We did not know fire was so bad. We will never do it again."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I am glad you are safe, but you have to be more careful. Fire is not a toy. It can hurt you and others. You have to surrender your matches and your toy soldiers. You will not play with them for a long time. You will help me clean this mess and then go to your room."
+
+Tom and Anna nodded and said, "Yes, Mom." They surrendered their matches and their toy soldiers. They helped Mom clean the pile of leaves and sticks. They went to their room and thought about what they had done. They learned a lesson about fire and playing. They hoped their toy soldiers would forgive them.
+Sara and Tom were playing with their furry toys in the park. They had a bear, a cat, a dog and a rabbit. They liked to make them talk and have adventures.
+
+"Hello, I am Bear. I am big and strong. I can help you if you are in trouble," said Sara, holding the bear.
+
+"Hello, I am Cat. I am smart and fast. I can climb trees and catch mice," said Tom, holding the cat.
+
+"Hello, I am Dog. I am loyal and friendly. I can run and bark and fetch sticks," said Sara, holding the dog.
+
+"Hello, I am Rabbit. I am cute and soft. I can hop and nibble carrots," said Tom, holding the rabbit.
+
+They were having fun, until they saw a man with a big bag. He was sneaking around the park, looking for things to take. He was a thief.
+
+"Look, he is taking that bike. That is not his bike. That is bad," said Sara.
+
+"Let's stop him. Let's use our toys. They can scare him away," said Tom.
+
+They ran after the thief, waving their toys and shouting.
+
+"Stop, thief! Stop, thief! We see you. You are not nice. You are mean. Quit taking things that are not yours," they yelled.
+
+The thief heard them and turned around. He saw the children and their furry toys. He was not afraid. He laughed.
+
+"Ha ha ha. You think you can stop me with your silly toys? They are just toys. They can't do anything. I can take them too. Give them to me," he said.
+
+He reached out his hand to grab the toys. But he was wrong. The toys were not just toys. They were magic. They came to life and bit his hand.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow! What are you doing? Let go of me. You are not toys. You are monsters," he cried.
+
+He dropped his bag and ran away. He quit being a thief. He was too scared of the furry toys.
+
+Sara and Tom were happy. They hugged their toys and thanked them.
+
+"Thank you, Bear. Thank you, Cat. Thank you, Dog. Thank you, Rabbit. You are not monsters. You are heroes. You are our friends," they said.
+
+They returned the bike to its owner and continued playing with their furry toys in the park. They had a great day. The end.
+Lily and Max were playing in the yard. They liked to run and jump and laugh. They saw a big box near the road. It was a mailbox. They wondered what was inside.
+
+"Let's open it and see," Max said. He ran to the box and pulled the lid. Lily followed him.
+
+Inside the box, they saw a lot of papers and envelopes. They also saw something else. It was a small, brown, furry thing. It had a long tail and sharp teeth. It was a rat!
+
+The rat was angry. It did not like to be in the box. It did not like the children. It made a loud noise. It showed its teeth. It jumped out of the box and ran away.
+
+Lily and Max were scared. They screamed and ran back to the house. They told their mom what they saw.
+
+"That was an ugly rat," Lily said. "It was mean and scary."
+
+"I'm sorry, sweeties," their mom said. "Someone must have put it in the mailbox as a bad joke. It was not nice. It was not funny. It was cruel."
+
+She hugged them and gave them cookies. She said she would call the mailman and tell him what happened. She said she would also call the animal control and ask them to catch the rat.
+
+Lily and Max felt better. They ate their cookies and played with their toys. They did not want to go near the mailbox again. They hoped the rat would find a better home.
+Tom was a foolish boy. He liked to zip his coat very fast and make loud noises. He did not like to eat his lunch. He only wanted to play with his toys.
+
+One day, his mom gave him a sandwich and some celery. She said, "Eat your lunch, Tom. Celery is good for you. It makes you strong and healthy." But Tom did not listen. He threw his celery on the floor and ran away.
+
+His mom was angry. She said, "Tom, come back here. You have to eat your lunch. You cannot play until you finish." But Tom did not care. He zipped his coat and ran outside.
+
+He saw his friend Lily. She was playing with her ball. Tom wanted to play with her. He said, "Hi, Lily. Can I play with you?" Lily said, "Sure, Tom. But did you eat your lunch?" Tom said, "No, I did not. I do not like celery. It is yucky."
+
+Lily said, "That is foolish, Tom. Celery is not yucky. It is crunchy and tasty. I like celery. It is good for you. It makes you strong and healthy." Tom said, "No, it does not. It is boring and green. I do not want to eat it."
+
+Lily said, "Well, then you cannot play with me. You have to eat your lunch first. You have to listen to your mom. She knows what is best for you." Tom said, "No, she does not. She is mean. She makes me eat celery. I do not want to listen to her."
+
+Lily said, "Then you are a foolish boy, Tom. You are not a good friend. You are rude and selfish. You do not care about your mom or your health. You only care about yourself. Go away, Tom. I do not want to play with you."
+
+Tom was sad. He realized that Lily was right. He was a foolish boy. He had made a big mistake. He had lost his friend and his lunch. He wished he had eaten his celery. He wished he had listened to his mom. He wished he had been a good boy. He zipped his coat and ran back home. He hoped his mom would forgive him. He hoped Lily would play with him again. He hoped he would learn to be smart and kind. He hoped he would like celery.
+Lily was a small girl who loved yogurt. She ate yogurt every day for breakfast and sometimes for a snack. She liked all kinds of yogurt, but her favorite was strawberry yogurt with little pieces of fruit.
+
+One morning, Lily woke up and went to the kitchen. She saw her big brother Jake eating a bowl of yogurt. She hoped it was not her strawberry yogurt. She asked him, "Jake, what yogurt are you eating?"
+
+Jake looked at her and smiled. He said, "I'm eating your strawberry yogurt, Lily. It's very yummy. Do you want some?"
+
+Lily felt angry and sad. She said, "No, I don't want some. That's my yogurt, Jake. You took it from the fridge. That's not nice. Give it back to me!"
+
+Jake shook his head and said, "No, I won't give it back to you. I'm hungry and I like strawberry yogurt too. You can have some other yogurt. There's plenty in the fridge."
+
+Lily started to cry. She said, "No, I don't want other yogurt. I want my strawberry yogurt. You're a mean brother, Jake. You always take my things. Mommy, mommy, Jake took my yogurt!"
+
+Mommy heard Lily crying and came to the kitchen. She saw Jake eating the yogurt and Lily sobbing. She said, "Jake, did you take Lily's yogurt without asking her?"
+
+Jake nodded and said, "Yes, mommy, I did. But I was hungry and I like strawberry yogurt too."
+
+Mommy said, "Jake, that's not how we share in this family. You should have asked Lily first if you could have some of her yogurt. Or you could have taken a different flavor. Lily loves her strawberry yogurt and she was looking forward to eating it. How would you feel if Lily took your favorite thing without asking you?"
+
+Jake thought for a moment and said, "I would feel sad and angry too, mommy. I'm sorry, Lily. I shouldn't have taken your yogurt. Here, you can have the rest of it. I'll get another one."
+
+Lily stopped crying and said, "Thank you, Jake. That's very kind of you. I'm sorry I yelled at you. Do you want to share my yogurt with me?"
+
+Jake smiled and said, "Sure, Lily. I'd love to share your yogurt with you. You're a nice sister, Lily. I'm sorry I was mean to you."
+
+Mommy hugged them both and said, "I'm proud of you, Jake and Lily. You learned how to apologize and forgive and share. That's what good siblings do. Now, enjoy your yogurt and have a good day."
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big slide and ran to it. Lily climbed up the ladder and slid down. She laughed and said, "That was fun!"
+
+Ben wanted to try too, but he was too small. He could not reach the ladder. He felt sad and said, "I want to slide too!"
+
+Lily saw Ben and said, "Don't be sad, Ben. There is another slide over there. It is smaller and has a path to go up. Come, I will show you."
+
+Lily and Ben ran to the other slide. It was red and yellow and had a path with steps and rails. Ben could fit on the path and climb up. He slid down and smiled. He said, "This slide is good for me!"
+
+Lily slid down after him and hugged him. She said, "I'm glad you found a slide that fits you, Ben. You are my best friend."
+
+They played on the slide until it was time to go home. They were happy and tired. They said goodbye to the slide and to each other. They said, "See you tomorrow!"
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big house with a pointy roof and a black cat. Anna says, "Look, Ben, maybe a witch lives there. Do you want to go and see?"
+
+Ben nods. He likes to be brave and curious. He follows Anna to the house. They knock on the door. No one answers. They open the door and go inside.
+
+The house is dark and dusty. There are many strange things on the shelves and tables. Anna and Ben see a big pot, a broom, a hat and a book. They hear a voice from upstairs. It says, "Who is there? Who is in my house?"
+
+Anna and Ben are scared. They hide behind a sofa. They see a woman coming down the stairs. She has long hair, a long dress and a long nose. She is holding the black cat. She is the witch.
+
+The witch looks around. She sees the pot, the broom, the hat and the book. She says, "Someone has touched my things. Someone has been naughty. Where are you? Come out, come out, or I will turn you into frogs!"
+
+Anna and Ben are very scared. They want to run away, but they are trapped. They hug each other and close their eyes. They hope the witch will not find them.
+
+The witch walks around the room. She sees the sofa. She sees a foot sticking out. She smiles. She says, "Aha, I found you. You are the naughty children who came into my house. Now you will pay for your mischief. Come out, come out, or I will turn you into frogs!"
+
+Anna and Ben are very sorry. They come out from behind the sofa. They say, "Please, please, don't turn us into frogs. We are sorry. We just wanted to see your house. We won't touch your things again. Please, please, let us go."
+
+The witch looks at them. She sees their scared faces and their soft voices. She feels sorry for them. She says, "Well, well, you are not so bad. You are just curious and brave. Maybe I won't turn you into frogs. Maybe I will let you go. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will never come into my house again. And you have to promise me that you will be good and kind to everyone. Do you promise?"
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They say, "Yes, yes, we promise. We will never come into your house again. And we will be good and kind to everyone. Thank you, thank you, for not turning us into frogs."
+
+The witch nods. She says, "Very well, then. You can go. But remember your promise. And don't tell anyone about me. I like to be alone. Now, off you go. And be careful."
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They say, "Thank you, thank you, goodbye." They run out of the house. They run back to the park. They are happy and relieved. They have learned a lesson. They have met a witch. And they have not turned into frogs.

+
+But his singing is bad. It makes the machines angry. They beep and flash and smoke. They make a loud noise. They break. The people in the office hear the noise. They run to the room. They see Tom and the broken machines. They are mad. They yell at Tom and his mom. They say Tom is naughty and his mom is careless. They say they have to pay a lot of money to fix the machines.

+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play in the living room. There is a big armchair in the living room. It is soft and cozy. Tom and Lily take turns to sit on the armchair and pretend to be the king or the queen.
+
+One day, Tom has a new idea. He says to Lily, "Let's test the armchair. Let's see how many toys we can put on it." Lily thinks this is a fun game. She says, "OK, let's do it. But we have to be quiet. Mom is working in the kitchen. She does not like noise."
+
+Tom and Lily start to bring their toys to the armchair. They put their dolls, cars, blocks, books, and balls on the armchair. They try to balance them and not let them fall. The armchair becomes very full and colorful. Tom and Lily giggle and whisper.
+
+But they do not see that Mom is coming to the living room. She wants to sit on the armchair and read a book. She is surprised and angry when she sees the mess. She says, "What are you doing? Why are you putting all these toys on the armchair? This is not a game. This is a test of my patience. You have to clean up right now."
+
+Tom and Lily are scared and sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We were just testing the armchair. We wanted to see how many toys it can hold. We did not mean to make you mad. We will clean up right now."
+
+Mom sighs and says, "I know you were just having fun. But you have to be careful and respectful. The armchair is not a toy. It is a place to sit and relax. And you have to be quiet when I am working. Do you understand?" Tom and Lily nod and say, "Yes, Mom. We understand. We love you." They hug Mom and start to pick up their toys. Mom smiles and says, "I love you too. Next time, let's test something else. Like how many cookies we can eat." Tom and Lily laugh and say, "Yes, Mom. That sounds like a better test."

+Lily and Ben were sad and angry. They wanted their toys back. They said, "No, they are not yours! They are ours! Give them back!"
+
+The big boy did not listen. He ran away with the ball and the car. He laughed and said, "Too bad for you! I am faster and stronger!"
+
+Lily and Ben chased him, but they could not catch him. He was too fast. He ran to the street and crossed it without looking. He did not see a big truck coming. The truck honked and braked, but it was too late. It hit the big boy and his toys.
+
+There was a loud noise and a lot of smoke. The big boy and his toys were gone. All that was left was ash. Ash was black and gray and dirty. It smelled bad and made Lily and Ben cough.
+
+Lily and Ben were shocked and scared. They felt sorry for the big boy, even though he was mean and greedy. They learned a lesson. They learned that stealing is wrong and dangerous.

+
+Mommy opened the door and saw them. She saw the dinosaur behind them. She was not scared. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, kids. That's not a real dinosaur. That's just Rex, the neighbor's dog. He likes to play with you. He's wearing a dinosaur costume for Halloween. He's very friendly."
+
+Lily and Tom looked at the dinosaur again. They saw that it was indeed a dog. They saw his wagging tail and his tongue. They felt silly and relieved. They laughed and said, "Sorry, Rex. We thought you were a scary dinosaur. Do you want to play with us?"

+Rex barked and nodded. He ran to them and licked their faces. He was happy to have new friends. Lily and Tom petted him and gave him a treat. They decided to play with him in the garden. They had fun with the dinosaur dog.
+Lily and Tom were bored. They wanted to watch TV, but Mom said no. Mom said they had to wash their hands and faces first. Lily and Tom did not like to wash. They thought it was too hard and too cold.
+
+They had an idea. They ran to the bathroom and turned on the water. They pretended to wash, but they did not. They just splashed some water on their hands and faces. Then they dried themselves with a towel. They smiled at each other. They thought they were clever.
+
+They ran to the living room and turned on the TV. They hoped Mom would not notice. They found a funny show and started to laugh. They forgot about Mom.
+
+But Mom was not stupid. She came to the living room and saw them. She looked at their hands and faces. She saw that they were still dirty. She was angry.

+
+Lily and Tom felt sad and ashamed. They knew they did wrong. They wished they had listened to Mom. They went to their rooms and cried. They did not have any fun. They learned a lesson. They decided to be honest next time.

+
+But Sara is not afraid. She likes animals. She walks to the mouse. She has some cheese in her pocket. She wants to give it to the mouse.

+
+"OK, Tom, I will come back," Sara says. "But the mouse is nice. It is not wild. It is just hungry."
+
+She says goodbye to the mouse. She walks to Tom. She gives him a hug.
+
+"Don't cry, Tom," Sara says. "It is OK. The mouse is gone. We can play again."

+
+Mia and Ben see her. They feel guilty. They hide the voice changer behind their backs.
+
+"Nothing, mom," they say in their normal voice.
+
+Their mom sees the toy. She knows they are lying.
+
+"Give me that," she says and takes the voice changer. "You know you are not allowed to be loud when I am working. This toy is going to the attic. And you are going to time out."
+
+Mia and Ben are sad. They say sorry to their mom. They go to their beds and sit quietly. They wish they had listened to their mom. They hope she will forgive them and let them play with the toy again.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big yard with a pond and many trees. They liked to gather stones, sticks, leaves and flowers and make things with them. Sometimes they made houses for their toys, sometimes they made necklaces and crowns, and sometimes they made boats and sailed them on the pond.
+
+One day, they decided to make a big boat with a sail and a flag. They gathered many sticks and tied them together with vines. They found a big leaf for the sail and a flower for the flag. They were very proud of their boat and wanted to see how it would float on the pond.
+
+"Let's go to the pond and try our boat!" Tom said.
+
+"Yes, let's go!" Lily agreed.
+
+They carried their boat to the pond and put it on the water. It floated very well and the wind made the sail move. They clapped and cheered and watched their boat sail away.
+
+But they did not notice that the sky was getting dark and the clouds were getting thick. Soon, it started to rain and the wind got stronger. The pond became choppy and the boat started to rock and tip.
+
+"Oh no, our boat!" Tom cried.
+
+"It's going to sink!" Lily said.
+
+They ran to the edge of the pond and tried to reach their boat, but it was too far and the water was too wet. They felt sad and scared and wished they had brought their boat back sooner.
+
+They looked at the sky and saw that the sun was setting behind the clouds. It made the sky look red and orange and purple. It was very pretty, but they could not enjoy it.
+
+They hugged each other and said, "We're sorry, boat. We hope you're okay."
+
+They heard a voice behind them say, "Don't worry, kids. I have your boat."
+
+They turned around and saw their dad holding their boat. He had seen them from the window and had come to help them. He had a big smile and a towel.
+
+He said, "Your boat is fine. It's just a little wet. Let's dry it off and take it inside. You can play with it again tomorrow."
+
+He wrapped the boat in the towel and gave it to Tom. He picked up Lily and put her on his shoulder. He said, "You made a very nice boat. I'm proud of you. But next time, watch the weather and come back before it rains."
+
+They said, "Okay, dad. Thank you for saving our boat."
+
+They walked back to the house with their dad. They felt happy and warm and safe. They looked at the sunset and thought it was beautiful. They said, "Good night, sun. See you tomorrow."
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a new wrap. The wrap is red and soft. They can use the wrap to make a cape, a tent, or a scarf.
+
+One day, they go to the park with the wrap. They see a big swing. Anna wants to swing on it. She says, "Ben, let me swing first. I have the wrap. I can be a superhero."
+
+Ben says, "No, Anna. I want to swing too. We can share the wrap. We can take turns."
+
+Anna says, "No, Ben. It is my wrap. I got it for my birthday. You can't have it."
+
+She runs to the swing with the wrap. She ties the wrap around her neck. She sits on the swing. She pushes herself with her feet. She swings high and fast. She feels like a superhero.
+
+But then, the wind blows hard. The wrap flies off her neck. It gets caught on a branch. Anna can't reach it. She cries, "Help! Help! My wrap is stuck!"
+
+Ben hears her cry. He runs to her. He says, "Don't worry, Anna. I will help you. I have a stick. I can get your wrap."
+
+He finds a long stick. He climbs on the swing. He swings up to the branch. He pokes the wrap with the stick. He frees the wrap. He catches it. He swings down. He gives the wrap to Anna.
+
+Anna says, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. You are a superhero."
+
+Ben says, "You are welcome, Anna. You are a good friend too. You are a superhero."
+
+They hug. They say, "We are sorry. We are sorry. We should share. We should share."
+
+They share the wrap. They swing together. They have fun. They learn to be kind and generous. They are happy.
+Tom was a dog who liked to run and play. He had a big yard with a fence and a tree. But he also had a chain. The chain was on his neck and on a post. Tom's owner put the chain on him when he went away. He said it was to keep Tom safe.
+
+One day, Tom saw a bird on the tree. The bird was red and blue and yellow. It was a rare bird. Tom wanted to see the bird better. He ran to the tree, but the chain stopped him. He pulled and pulled, but the chain was too strong. He barked and barked, but the bird did not care. Tom was sad and angry. He struggled with the chain.
+
+Then, he heard a noise. It was his owner. He came back from his trip. He saw Tom and the bird and the chain. He smiled and said, "Good boy, Tom. You found a rare bird. I'm sorry you were on the chain. Let me take it off." He took the chain off Tom's neck and hugged him. Tom was happy and wagged his tail. He licked his owner's face. He did not care about the bird anymore. He had his owner and he was free.
+Lily and Ben were very excited. It was Christmas Eve and they wanted to see the reindeer. They put on their warm coats and hats and went outside with their dad. The snow was white and soft and the stars were bright.
+
+"Look, dad, look!" Lily shouted. "There is a big red thing in the sky. Is that Santa's sleigh?"
+
+"Yes, it is, Lily," dad said. "He is coming to bring presents to all the good children. Do you see the reindeer pulling the sleigh?"
+
+Ben squinted his eyes and nodded. "I see them, dad. They have horns and fur and big feet. They are very fast and strong. How many are there?"
+
+Dad counted with them. "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Eight reindeer. Do you know their names?"
+
+Lily and Ben tried to remember. "Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen," they said together.
+
+"Very good," dad said. "And do you know the name of the one with the red nose?"
+
+"Rudolph!" Lily and Ben said. "He is the leader. He helps Santa find the way in the dark."
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud "Ho ho ho!" from the sky. They looked up and saw Santa waving at them. He threw a small package down to them. It landed in the snow with a thud.
+
+"What is it, dad? What is it?" Lily and Ben asked.
+
+Dad picked up the package and opened it. Inside, there were two small reindeer toys. One had a red nose and the other had a blue nose. They had bells around their necks and ribbons around their bodies.
+
+"These are for you, Lily and Ben," dad said. "Santa sent them to you. They are your new friends. You can name them and play with them."
+
+Lily and Ben hugged the reindeer toys and thanked Santa. They were very happy. They put the reindeer toys in their pockets. They were tight, but they did not mind. They wanted to keep them close.
+
+They went back inside with their dad. They drank hot cocoa and ate cookies. They put the reindeer toys under the tree. They said good night to each other and went to bed. They dreamed of reindeer and Santa and Christmas.
+Tim and Jen were playing in the shed. They found a box of matches. Tim said, "Let's make a fire. It will be fun." Jen said, "No, Tim. Fire is bad. It can burn us and the shed. Mom and Dad will be mad." But Tim did not listen. He took a match and struck it on the box. It made a bright flame.
+
+Tim held the match and waved it around. He said, "Look, Jen. I have a fire. It is pretty and warm." Jen was scared. She said, "Tim, stop. Put it out. It is dangerous." But Tim did not listen. He threw the match on the floor. It landed on some papers and wood. They caught fire and made a big fire.
+
+The fire grew and spread. It burned the papers, the wood, the shed, and everything in it. Tim and Jen screamed. They ran out of the shed. They saw Mom and Dad coming. They looked angry and worried. They saw the fire and called for help.
+
+The firemen came with a big truck. They had hoses and water. They tried to put out the fire. But it was too late. The fire had burned the shed and everything in it. It had also burned some of the house and the garden. The firemen said, "This is a bad fire. It was caused by a match. Who did this?"
+
+Mom and Dad looked at Tim and Jen. They knew it was them. They were very mad and sad. They said, "Tim and Jen, you are in big trouble. You played with matches and made a fire. You burned the shed and our things. You could have burned yourselves and us. You were very naughty and foolish. You are grounded for a long time."
+
+Tim and Jen felt very bad. They said, "We are sorry, Mom and Dad. We did not mean to make a fire. We did not know it would burn so much. We were just playing." But Mom and Dad did not listen. They said, "Sorry is not enough. You have to learn your lesson. You have to pay for the damage. You have to help us clean and fix everything. You have to promise to never play with matches again."
+
+Tim and Jen nodded. They knew they had done a bad thing. They wished they had listened to Jen. They wished they had not played with matches. They wished they had not burned the shed and their things. They were poor and unhappy. They had a bad ending.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were spies and take pictures of each other with their toy cameras. They hid behind trees and bushes and made funny noises.
+
+One day, they saw a big dog running towards them. It was brown and furry and had a long tongue. Lily and Ben were scared. They thought the dog was a bad guy and wanted to catch them.
+
+"Run, Ben, run!" Lily shouted. She grabbed her camera and ran to the slide. Ben followed her, but he dropped his camera on the grass.
+
+The dog saw the camera and ran to it. It sniffed it and picked it up with its mouth. It wagged its tail and looked at Ben.
+
+"Hey, that's mine!" Ben said. He ran to the dog and tried to get his camera back. The dog growled and shook its head.
+
+"Ben, be careful!" Lily said. She slid down the slide and joined Ben. She tried to calm the dog down. She said, "Good dog, good dog. Please give us our camera. We are friendly. We don't want to fight."
+
+The dog looked at Lily and Ben. It saw that they were not bad guys. They were just kids. It liked kids. It licked their faces and dropped the camera. It wagged its tail and barked.
+
+Lily and Ben were happy. They hugged the dog and thanked it. They picked up their cameras and took a picture of the dog. The dog smiled and posed.
+
+They made a new friend. They decided to name the dog Spy. They played with Spy until it was time to go home. They said goodbye and promised to come back. Spy waved and ran away.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a doll and Ben had a car. They were having fun, but they wanted to try something new.
+
+"Let's play dress up!" Lily said. "We can wear mommy and daddy's clothes!"
+
+"Okay!" Ben agreed. "That sounds fun!"
+
+They ran to their parents' bedroom and opened the closet. They saw many clothes of different colors and shapes. Lily picked a red dress and Ben picked a blue suit. They put them on, but they were too big for them.
+
+"Look at me!" Lily giggled. "I look like a tomato!"
+
+"Look at me!" Ben laughed. "I look like a penguin!"
+
+They looked at each other and started to dance. They pretended to be fancy and elegant. They twirled and bowed and clapped.
+
+But then, something strange happened. The clothes started to shrink. They became smaller and smaller, until they fit Lily and Ben perfectly. They felt smooth and soft on their skin.
+
+"Wow!" Lily exclaimed. "How did that happen?"
+
+"I don't know!" Ben said. "But they look nice!"
+
+They looked at themselves in the mirror and smiled. They felt like grown-ups. They decided to show their parents their new outfits.
+
+They ran to the living room, where their parents were reading. They shouted, "Surprise!"
+
+Their parents looked up and saw them. They were surprised and amused. They praised their children for their creativity and style.
+
+"You look wonderful!" their mom said.
+
+"You look handsome!" their dad said.
+
+Lily and Ben felt happy and proud. They hugged their parents and thanked them for their clothes. They asked them how they shrunk.
+
+Their parents winked and said, "It's a secret. But we'll tell you when you're older."
+Tim and Mia went to the beach with Mom and Dad. They liked to play in the sand and look for shells. They saw a big crab with red and blue claws. It was hiding under a rock.
+
+"Wow, look at that crab!" Tim said. "It is so attractive. I want to touch it."
+
+"Be careful, Tim," Mia said. "Crabs can pinch you with their claws. They don't like to be bothered."
+
+Tim did not listen to Mia. He reached his hand under the rock and tried to grab the crab. The crab did not like that. It pinched Tim's finger with its claw. Tim cried out in pain and pulled his hand back.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tim said. "That crab hurt me!"
+
+Mom and Dad heard Tim's cry and ran to him. They saw his finger was red and swollen. They wrapped it with a bandage and gave him a hug.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tim," Mom said. "Crabs are attractive, but they are not friendly. You have to care for them from a distance. They are wild animals, not toys."
+
+Tim nodded. He learned his lesson. He said sorry to the crab and left it alone. He decided to play with Mia instead. They built a sandcastle and had fun. They cared for each other and the beach.
+Lily was a smart girl who liked to learn new things. She wanted to go to the big building where her dad worked. She had seen it from the car many times. It had many windows and a tall tower. She dreamed of going inside and seeing what was there.
+
+One day, her dad took her with him to the big building. He said he had to do some work and she could wait in his office. He gave her some books and toys to play with. He told her not to go anywhere else. Lily nodded and smiled.
+
+But Lily was curious. She wanted to see more of the big building. She saw a door with a sign that said "elevator". She knew what an elevator was. It was a box that moved up and down and took people to different floors. She wondered what was on the other floors. She decided to go inside the elevator and push a button.
+
+The elevator door closed and the box started to move. Lily felt excited and scared. She did not know where she was going. She pushed another button to make it stop. But it did not stop. It kept moving. Lily started to cry. She wanted to go back to her dad. She did not like the elevator anymore.
+
+The elevator stopped at a floor and the door opened. Lily saw a man in a suit. He looked surprised and angry. He asked her who she was and what she was doing. Lily did not know what to say. She was too scared. She wished she had listened to her dad and stayed in his office. She learned that being smart was not enough. She also had to be careful and follow the rules.
+Ben and Lily were twins. They liked to play with their toys and books. They also liked to eat candy, but their mom said they could only have one piece each day.
+
+One day, their mom went to the store and bought them a big bag of candy. She said it was a surprise for their birthday. She put the bag in a high place and told them not to touch it until their birthday.
+
+Ben and Lily were very happy and excited. They wanted to see what kind of candy was in the bag. They counted the days until their birthday. They said, "We will receive a lot of candy on our birthday. We will have so much fun!"
+
+But Ben was very curious and impatient. He wanted to see the candy now. He waited until his mom was busy in the kitchen and his sister was playing with her doll. He climbed on a chair and reached for the bag. He opened it and took out a piece of candy. It was yellow and round. He thought it was a lemon candy. He liked lemon candy.
+
+He put the candy in his mouth and bit it. But it was not a lemon candy. It was a sour candy. It was very sour and bitter. It made his face twist and his eyes water. He spit out the candy and cried, "Yuck! This candy is bad! It is sour and nasty!"
+
+Lily heard him cry and ran to see what was wrong. She saw him holding the candy and the bag. She said, "Ben, what did you do? You took the candy from the bag! Mom said not to touch it until our birthday!"
+
+Ben felt sorry and ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I wanted to see the candy. I thought it was a lemon candy. But it was a sour candy. It was awful!"
+
+Lily felt sorry for him too. She said, "It's okay, Ben. I forgive you. But we have to put the candy back in the bag and hide it. Maybe mom won't notice. And maybe there are other candies that are not sour. We can try them on our birthday."
+
+Ben nodded and said, "Okay, Lily. Thank you. You are a good sister. I won't touch the candy again. I will wait for our birthday."
+
+They put the candy back in the bag and hid it in the high place. They hugged each other and went back to their toys and books. They hoped their mom would not find out. They also hoped their birthday would come soon. They wondered how many candies they would receive and what flavors they would be. They hoped they would not be sour.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then Ben tripped and fell. He hurt his knee. It was red and bleeding. He cried out loud.
+
+Lily ran to him. She saw his knee. She felt sorry for him. She said, "Ben, are you OK? Does your knee hurt a lot?"
+
+Ben nodded. He said, "Yes, it hurts. It stings. I want to go home."
+
+Lily hugged him. She said, "Don't cry, Ben. I will help you. We can go home and get a band-aid. Mom will make it better."
+
+She helped him stand up. She held his hand. They walked slowly to the gate.
+
+On the way, they saw a big dog. The dog barked at them. It had sharp teeth and a harsh voice. It scared them.
+
+Lily said, "Ben, mind the dog. It might bite us. Let's go around it."
+
+Ben said, "OK, Lily. You are brave. You are a good friend."
+
+They went around the dog. They reached the gate. They saw Mom waiting for them. She smiled and waved.
+
+They ran to her. They told her what happened. She hugged them and kissed them. She said, "I'm sorry, Ben. Let me see your knee. I have a band-aid in my bag. It will make you feel better."
+
+She cleaned his knee and put a band-aid on it. She said, "There, all done. You are a strong boy, Ben. You will be fine."
+
+Ben smiled. He said, "Thank you, Mom. Thank you, Lily. You are the best."
+
+They all went home. They had some juice and cookies. They played some more. They were happy.
+Lily liked to play with her purple bike. She rode it every day in the park. She had a bell on her bike that made a loud sound. She liked to ring it when she saw her friends.
+
+One day, she saw Ben in the park. Ben was her best friend. He had a red ball that he liked to kick. He saw Lily and waved at her.
+
+"Hi, Lily!" he said. "Can I play with your bike?"
+
+Lily smiled. She liked to share with Ben. She said, "Yes, you can play with my bike. I can lend it to you for a little while. But be careful. Don't break it."
+
+"Thank you, Lily!" Ben said. "I will be careful. I will give it back to you soon."
+
+Lily gave Ben her bike. She took his ball and kicked it. They had fun playing together.
+
+After a while, Lily saw a mail truck. It was big and yellow. It had a lot of letters and packages inside. Lily liked to get mail. She wondered if there was something for her.
+
+She ran to the mail truck. She saw a mailman. He had a blue hat and a blue shirt. He smiled at her.
+
+"Hello, little girl," he said. "Are you looking for mail?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, I am. Do you have something for me?"
+
+The mailman looked at his bag. He found a letter with Lily's name on it. He gave it to her.
+
+"Here you go," he said. "This is for you. It's from your grandma. She lives far away. She loves you very much."
+
+Lily was happy. She thanked the mailman. She opened the letter. She saw a picture of her grandma. She also saw a sticker of a purple flower. She liked purple flowers. She put the sticker on her bike.
+
+She ran back to Ben. She showed him the letter and the sticker. He was happy for her. He said, "That's very nice. Your grandma is very nice. I like your sticker. It matches your bike."
+
+Lily said, "Thank you, Ben. You are very nice too. Here is your ball. Thank you for lending me your bike. It was fun."
+
+They hugged each other. They were good friends. They played some more until it was time to go home. They said goodbye and waved at each other. They looked forward to playing again.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big sign in the park. The sign had a message. The message said: "Do not touch the flowers. They are for everyone to enjoy."
+
+Lily and Tom wanted to touch the flowers. They thought they were pretty and soft. They did not listen to the message. They ran to the flower bed and picked some flowers. They made a crown for Lily and a necklace for Tom.
+
+A man saw them. He was angry. He worked in the park. He said: "What are you doing? You are not supposed to touch the flowers. You are hurting them. You are breaking the rules. You should be ashamed of yourselves."
+
+Lily and Tom were scared. They dropped the flowers. They said: "We are sorry. We did not know. We just wanted to play."
+
+The man said: "Sorry is not enough. You have to pay for what you did. You have to give me your toys. And you have to leave the park. You are not welcome here anymore."
+
+Lily and Tom were sad. They gave the man their toys. They had no toys to play with. They had no flowers to wear. They had no park to go to. They had no fun. They had a bad day.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they decide to have a picnic in the park. They pack some bread, cheese, apples and juice in a big bag.
+
+They walk to the park and find a nice spot under a big tree. They spread a blanket on the grass and sit down. They open the bag and take out their food.
+
+"Look, Ben, I have a thick slice of cheese. Do you want some?" Anna asks.
+
+"Yes, please. Cheese is yummy. And I have a big apple. Do you want a bite?" Ben says.
+
+"Sure. Apples are crunchy. And I have some juice. Do you want a sip?" Anna says.
+
+They share their food and drink. They talk and laugh. They are happy.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud noise. They look up and see a big plane in the sky. It has a long white tail behind it.
+
+"Wow, look at that plane. It is so high and fast. I wish I could fly like that." Ben says.
+
+"Me too. Maybe we can pretend. Let's raise our arms and make plane sounds." Anna says.
+
+They stand up and raise their arms. They run around the blanket and make plane sounds. They pretend to fly like the plane. They have fun. They are happy.
+Anna loved to soar in the sky with her kite. She made the kite with her dad, using paper, sticks and a long string. She painted the kite with many colors and shapes. She was very proud of her kite.
+
+One day, she saw a fancy kite in the park. It was bigger and shinier than her kite. It had ribbons and bells and glitter. Anna wanted that kite very much. She thought her kite was not good enough.
+
+She saw a boy holding the fancy kite. He was not looking. Anna had a bad idea. She took a pin from her pocket and ran to the boy. She poked the fancy kite with the pin. The kite popped and fell to the ground. The boy cried.
+
+Anna grabbed the fancy kite and ran away. She thought she was happy. But she was not. She felt bad for the boy. She felt bad for the kite. She felt bad for herself.
+
+She looked at her kite. It was still flying high and bright. It was still her kite. She realized she made a big mistake. She ran back to the park. She gave the fancy kite to the boy. She said she was sorry. She asked him to forgive her.
+
+The boy was surprised. He was still sad, but he was also kind. He forgave Anna. He thanked her for giving back his kite. He said his dad gave him the kite for his birthday. He said he liked Anna's kite too. He asked her if she wanted to fly kites together.
+
+Anna smiled. She said yes. She learned a lesson. She learned that fancy things are not always better. She learned that being mean is not fun. She learned that being sorry and kind is good. She learned to soar with her kite and her friend.
+Sara and Tom are playing dress-up in their room. They have many clothes and hats and shoes to try on. They have fun making funny faces and noises.
+
+Sara finds a red dress and a big hat. She puts them on and says, "Look, Tom, I am a queen. You are my servant. You must do what I say."
+
+Tom does not like this game. He wants to be a king or a pirate or a superhero. He says, "No, Sara, you are not a queen. You are my sister. And I am not your servant. I am your brother."
+
+Sara gets angry. She says, "You are a bad servant. You must obey me. Or I will punish you."
+
+Tom gets scared. He says, "What will you do to me?"
+
+Sara looks around and sees a hanger on the floor. She picks it up and says, "I will hit you with this hanger. It is very hard and sharp. It will hurt you a lot."
+
+Tom sees the hanger and cries. He says, "No, Sara, no. Please don't hit me. I am sorry. I will do what you say."
+
+Sara feels sorry for Tom. She sees that he is crying and that he is weak. She remembers that he is her brother and that she loves him. She forgets that she is a queen and that he is a servant. She says, "Oh, Tom, I am sorry. I was just playing. I don't want to hit you. I don't want to hurt you. You are my brother and I love you."
+
+She hugs Tom and gives him the hanger. She says, "Here, you can have the hanger. You can use it for your game. You can be a king or a pirate or a superhero. I will be your friend."
+
+Tom stops crying and smiles. He says, "Thank you, Sara. I love you too. You are my sister and my friend. You can be a queen or a princess or a fairy. I will play with you."
+
+They put the hanger away and find new clothes and hats and shoes to try on. They have fun playing dress-up together. They are happy.
+Tom likes to write with his crayons. He writes his name, his mom's name, and his dog's name on a big paper. He writes many colors and shapes too. He is very happy.
+
+But then he hears a loud sound. It is rain. The rain is very hard and fast. It makes a lot of noise on the window. Tom does not like the rain. He wants to go outside and play.
+
+He runs to his mom and says, "Mom, can I go outside? I don't like the rain. It is boring."
+
+Mom shakes her head and says, "No, Tom, you can't go outside. The rain is too wet and cold. You will get sick. You have to stay inside and play with your toys."
+
+Tom is sad. He does not want to play with his toys. He wants to go outside and see the sun and the flowers. He thinks the rain is mean.
+
+He goes back to his paper and writes, "Rain, go away. Come again another day." He writes it many times, very big and hard. He hopes the rain will see it and stop.
+
+But the rain does not stop. It keeps falling and falling. Tom gets angry. He writes faster and faster. He writes so fast that he gets dizzy. He feels his head spinning and his eyes blurry. He falls down on the floor.
+
+Mom hears him and runs to him. She sees him lying on the floor. She is scared. She picks him up and hugs him. She says, "Tom, what happened? Are you okay?"
+
+Tom opens his eyes and sees his mom. He feels her warm and soft. He says, "Mom, I'm sorry. I was trying to make the rain go away. But it didn't work. And I got dizzy."
+
+Mom smiles and kisses him. She says, "It's okay, Tom. You don't have to make the rain go away. The rain is not mean. It is just water. It helps the plants and the animals grow. And it will stop soon. Then you can go outside and play. But for now, you have to rest. You have to be careful when you write. Don't write too fast or too hard. Write slowly and gently. And have fun."
+
+Tom nods and says, "Okay, Mom. I will. I love you."
+
+Mom says, "I love you too, Tom. Now let's go to your bed and read a story. Maybe we can find a story about the rain and how it makes a rainbow."
+
+Tom likes that idea. He likes rainbows. He thinks they are pretty and happy. He hopes to see one when the rain stops. He holds his mom's hand and goes to his bed. He feels better. He is not dizzy anymore. He is sleepy. He listens to his mom's voice and falls asleep. He dreams of rainbows and crayons.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in the kitchen. They pretend to cook and bake. They use pots, pans, spoons and cups.
+
+One day, they want to make a cake. They ask mom for some flour, sugar, eggs and milk. Mom is busy. She says, "I will send you the things you need. But be careful and don't make a mess."
+
+Mom sends them the flour, sugar, eggs and milk. Sara and Ben are happy. They pour the flour and sugar in a big bowl. They crack the eggs and add them too. They mix everything with a spoon. They pour the milk and stir some more.
+
+They need a pan to bake the cake. They look for a pan in the cupboard. They find a big pan. It is too heavy for them. They try to lift it, but it falls on the floor. It makes a loud noise. Mom hears the noise. She comes to the kitchen.
+
+She sees the pan on the floor. She sees the flour, sugar, eggs and milk on the table. She sees Sara and Ben with spoons in their hands. She is not happy. She says, "What are you doing? You made a big mess. You can't use this pan. It is too big and too hot. You need a smaller and cooler pan."
+
+Sara and Ben are sorry. They say, "We are sorry, mom. We wanted to make a cake. We thought you sent us the pan. We didn't know it was too big and too hot. Can you help us find a smaller and cooler pan?"
+
+Mom is not angry anymore. She says, "It's okay, my loves. I know you wanted to make a cake. But you have to be careful and ask me first. I will help you find a smaller and cooler pan. And I will help you clean the mess. You are my helpful twins."
+Ben and Lily went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and birds. But their favorite was the hippo. The hippo was big and gray, and had a huge mouth. He was in a pool of water, and sometimes he came out to eat some grass.
+
+"Can we feed the hippo, mom?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, sweetie, we can't. The hippo has his own food, and we don't want to make him sick," mom said.
+
+"But he looks hungry, mom. And he is so cute," Lily said.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "He is cute, but he is also very strong. He can bite very hard, and he can run very fast. We have to be careful and respect the hippo."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded, but they still wanted to feed the hippo. They saw a man selling some carrots near the zoo gate. They asked mom for some money, and she gave them some. They bought two carrots each, and ran back to the hippo.
+
+They waited until mom was looking at another animal, and then they threw their carrots into the pool. The hippo saw the carrots, and swam towards them. He opened his mouth, and ate them in one gulp.
+
+"Wow, he liked our carrots!" Ben said.
+
+"Maybe he will be our friend now," Lily said.
+
+They threw their other carrots, and the hippo ate them too. He looked at Ben and Lily, and made a loud noise. It sounded like a snort.
+
+"Did he say thank you?" Ben asked.
+
+"I think so. He is grateful for our carrots," Lily said.
+
+They smiled, and waved at the hippo. The hippo waved back with his tail.
+
+Mom came back, and saw them waving. She asked them what they were doing.
+
+"We fed the hippo, mom. He was hungry, and we gave him some carrots. He liked them, and he said thank you. He is our friend now," Ben and Lily said.
+
+Mom looked at the hippo, and then at the empty carrot bag. She was not happy. She said, "Ben and Lily, you should not have done that. You did not listen to me, and you did not respect the hippo. You could have hurt him, or yourself. You have to resist the temptation to feed the animals. They have their own diet, and they don't need our food. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben and Lily looked down, and said, "Yes, mom. We are sorry. We won't do it again."
+
+Mom hugged them, and said, "I love you, but you have to be more careful. The hippo is not your friend, he is a wild animal. He might look cute, but he can be dangerous. You have to follow the rules, and stay safe. OK?"
+
+Ben and Lily said, "OK, mom. We love you too."
+
+They left the hippo, and went to see other animals. They learned more about them, and how to respect them. They had fun, but they also remembered their lesson. They never tried to feed the hippo again.
+Tom and Mia are brother and sister. They like to play together. They have many toys and books in their room. They enjoy making stories with their toys and reading books with their mom.
+
+One night, mom tells them that they will have a special guest. It is their grandma. She lives far away and they do not see her often. Tom and Mia are very eager to see her. They love their grandma. She is kind and funny. She always brings them gifts and tells them stories.
+
+"Grandma is coming soon," mom says. "You need to get ready for bed. She will be here in the morning."
+
+"But mom, we want to see her now," Tom says.
+
+"Me too," Mia says.
+
+"I know, my loves, but it is late and you need to sleep. Grandma will be very happy to see you when you wake up. She will have a big hug and a kiss for you. And maybe a surprise too."
+
+"OK, mom," Tom and Mia say. They brush their teeth and put on their pajamas. They hug and kiss their mom and go to their bed. They are still eager to see their grandma, but they are also sleepy. They close their eyes and dream of their grandma. They know she will be there when they open them again. They smile and fall asleep.
+Anna loves her pink dress. It has flowers and ribbons and it makes her feel like a princess. She likes to wear it when she plays with her dolls or reads her books. But today, she has a problem. Her dress is dirty.
+
+She spilled some juice on it at breakfast and now it has a big stain. She tries to hide it with her hands, but her mom sees it.
+
+"Anna, what happened to your dress?" her mom asks.
+
+Anna feels scared. She does not want to tell the truth. She thinks her mom will be mad at her and take away her dress. She thinks of a lie.
+
+"I don't know, mom. Maybe the cat did it. He likes to play with my dress," she says.
+
+Her mom looks at her with a sad face. She knows Anna is not honest. She kneels down and hugs her.
+
+"Anna, I love you very much. But you have to be honest with me. Lying is not good. It hurts me and it hurts you. The cat did not do this. You did. And that's okay. Accidents happen. But you have to tell me the truth. Can you do that?"
+
+Anna feels sorry. She knows her mom is right. She does not like to lie. She loves her mom. She nods and says sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. I spilled some juice on my dress. I was not honest. I was afraid you would be mad at me."
+
+Her mom smiles and kisses her.
+
+"Thank you, Anna. I'm not mad at you. I'm proud of you for being honest. That's very brave. And don't worry about your dress. We can wash it and make it clean again. How about we do that together?"
+
+Anna smiles and hugs her mom.
+
+"Okay, mom. I love you. And I love my dress. Can I wear it again after we wash it?"
+
+"Of course, Anna. You can wear it as much as you want. As long as you are honest and happy."
+Tom was a soldier. He had a gun and a hat. He went to fight bad men. He was brave, but sometimes he was fearful. He missed his home and his mom.
+
+One day, he saw a big plane in the sky. It was loud and fast. It dropped a bomb on his camp. Tom ran and hid under a tree. He was very fearful. He prayed to God to help him.
+
+Then, he heard a voice. It was a little girl. She was crying and hurt. She was near the bomb. Tom forgot his fear. He ran to the girl. He picked her up and carried her to a safe place. He let her hold his hat. He gave her some water and a bandage. He told her his name and asked for hers.
+
+She said her name was Lila. She thanked Tom for saving her. She said he was a good soldier. Tom smiled and hugged her. He was not fearful anymore. He was happy. He had a new friend.
+Lila liked to look at the stars at night. She had a big book with pictures of stars and planets. She wanted to see a comet, a star with a long tail. Her book said comets were very rare and special.
+
+One night, she saw a bright light in the sky. It was a comet! She was so happy. She ran to get her book and show her mom. But when she came back, the comet was gone. She felt sad and angry. She wanted to see the comet again.
+
+She asked her mom why the comet left. Her mom said comets move very fast and sometimes they hide behind clouds. She said maybe the comet would come back another night. She said Lila should not be sad or angry, but be kind and patient.
+
+Lila did not like to wait. She wanted to see the comet now. She thought maybe she could make the comet come back. She had an idea. She took her book and a flashlight. She went outside and shone the flashlight on the book. She hoped the comet would see the pictures and come to say hello.
+
+She waited and waited. She felt cold and tired. She was about to give up, when she saw a flash of light. It was the comet! It had seen her book and her flashlight. It came closer and closer. It looked like it was smiling. Lila smiled too. She felt happy and warm. She had restored the comet. She waved at the comet and said thank you. The comet waved back and said you're welcome. Then it flew away, leaving a trail of sparkles. Lila ran inside and hugged her mom. She told her what happened. Her mom was proud of her. She said Lila was very kind and clever. She said the comet was her friend. Lila agreed. She said she loved the comet. She said she would always remember it. She said good night to the comet and to her mom. She went to bed and dreamed of stars.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the bathroom. They liked to splash water and make bubbles. They had a big towel to dry themselves. But Ben was careless. He did not listen to Mommy when she said to be careful.
+
+Ben saw a bottle on the shelf. It was shiny and colorful. He wanted to see what was inside. He reached for the bottle and pulled it. But the bottle was too heavy. It slipped from his hand and fell on the floor. It broke with a loud noise. Water and soap came out of the bottle and made a big mess.
+
+Lily was scared. She cried and ran to Mommy. Mommy came to the bathroom and saw the broken bottle and the wet floor. She was angry and sad. She said to Ben, "You were careless. You broke the bottle and wasted the soap. You made a big mess and scared Lily. You need to say sorry and help me clean up."
+
+Ben felt bad. He said sorry to Mommy and Lily. He helped Mommy to pick up the pieces of the bottle and wipe the floor. He used the towel to dry himself and Lily. He learned to be careful and not touch things that he did not know. He hugged Mommy and Lily and said, "I love you. I will be careful next time." Mommy and Lily hugged him back and said, "We love you too. We are glad you are okay." They smiled and went to the kitchen to have a snack.
+Ben and Lily liked to play pirate in the park. They had a big stick for a sword and a scarf for a bandana. They ran and jumped and fought with the stick.
+
+One day, they saw a new thing in the park. It was a long and thin wood that was high in the air. It looked like a bridge, but it had no sides. Ben and Lily wanted to try it.
+
+"Let's go, Lily! We can be pirates on the wood!" Ben said.
+
+"OK, Ben! But be careful, it looks hard to balance!" Lily said.
+
+They climbed up the ladder and reached the wood. Ben went first. He held his stick and walked slowly on the wood. He tried to balance, but it was wobbly. He felt scared.
+
+"Lily, help me! I'm going to fall!" Ben cried.
+
+Lily followed him. She was small, but brave. She held his hand and walked with him. She tried to balance, too, but it was easier for her. She felt happy.
+
+"Ben, don't worry! I'm here! We can do it!" Lily said.
+
+They reached the end of the wood and jumped down. They hugged and laughed. They felt proud.
+
+"We did it, Lily! We are the best pirates ever!" Ben said.
+
+"Yes, Ben! We are! And we have the best balance, too!" Lily said.
+
+They played pirate some more, and had a lot of fun. They loved the new thing in the park. It was their pirate wood.
+Lily and Sam were playing in the kitchen. They liked to observe the things that Mom used to cook. They saw a big jar of salt on the counter. Sam was curious. He wanted to taste it.
+
+"Look, Lily, salt!" he said. He opened the jar and took a pinch of salt. He put it in his mouth.
+
+"Yuck!" he spat. "This is not good. It is very salty and bitter. It makes my tongue hurt."
+
+Lily laughed. She thought Sam was funny. She wanted to try it too. She took a bigger pinch of salt and put it in her mouth.
+
+"Ow!" she cried. "This is worse than Sam. It is very, very salty and bitter. It makes my mouth dry and my throat sore."
+
+They both ran to the sink. They wanted to drink some water. But they were too late. Mom came into the kitchen. She saw the mess they made. She saw the salt on the floor and on their faces. She was very angry.
+
+"What are you doing?" she shouted. "You are not supposed to touch the salt. It is not for playing. It is for cooking. It can make you sick. You are very naughty. You are in big trouble."
+
+She took them by the hand and dragged them to their room. She locked the door. She said they had to stay there until dinner. They could not play with their toys. They could not watch TV. They could not have any snacks.
+
+Lily and Sam were very sad. They were very uncomfortable. They still felt the salt in their mouth and their throat. They wished they had not touched the salt. They wished they had listened to Mom. They learned their lesson. But it was too late. They had a bad ending.
+Lily and Tom were very happy. They were going to the station with their mom and dad. They wanted to see the big trains and hear their loud noises. They also wanted to receive a surprise from their grandma, who lived far away.
+
+When they got to the station, they saw many people and bags and carts. They also saw a big clock on the wall. It was very old and had many numbers and hands. Mom said it was ancient. Lily and Tom did not know what ancient meant, but they thought it looked nice.
+
+They followed their mom and dad to a platform, where a big train was waiting. They heard a whistle and saw smoke coming out of the train. They climbed inside and found their seats. They looked out of the window and saw the station moving away. They were very excited.
+
+Soon, a lady came with a cart. She had many things on the cart, like drinks and snacks and books and toys. She smiled and asked Lily and Tom if they wanted anything. Lily and Tom looked at their mom and dad, who nodded. Lily and Tom received a juice and a cookie each, and a coloring book and a crayon each. They said thank you to the lady and started to color.
+
+They colored for a long time, until they heard another whistle. They looked out of the window and saw another station. They heard their dad say that they had arrived. They packed their things and got off the train. They saw their grandma waiting for them. She hugged them and gave them a big kiss. She also gave them a surprise. It was a toy train each, just like the one they had ridden. Lily and Tom were very happy. They said thank you to their grandma and played with their toy trains. They had a wonderful day.
+Lily likes to play with her dolls. She has many dolls, but her favorite is Daisy. Daisy has a pink dress and a cute hat. Lily likes to brush Daisy's hair and put perfume on her. Lily thinks Daisy smells good.
+
+One day, Lily's mom says they have a new neighbor. His name is Ben and he is three years old, like Lily. Lily's mom says they can invite Ben to play with them. Lily is happy. She wants to make a new friend.
+
+Lily and her mom go to Ben's house. They knock on the door and Ben's mom opens it. She says hello and invites them in. Lily sees Ben sitting on the floor with his cars. He has many cars, but his favorite is a red one. Ben likes to zoom his cars and make noises.
+
+Lily says hello to Ben and shows him Daisy. She says Daisy is her best doll and she smells good. Ben smells Daisy and says she does smell good. He shows Lily his red car and says it is his best car and it is fast. Lily likes the red car and says it is fast.
+
+Lily and Ben decide to play together. They take turns with Daisy and the red car. They have fun and laugh. Lily's mom and Ben's mom smile and talk. They are happy that Lily and Ben are getting along. They think they are cute.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to climb the big tree and pretend they were birds. They found a branch that was good for sitting and talking.
+
+"Look, Anna, I can see the whole park from here!" Ben said. He pointed at the swings, the slide and the pond.
+
+Anna nodded. "It is very pretty. But do you see the clouds? They are dark and gloomy. I think it will rain soon."
+
+Ben frowned. He did not like rain. It made him wet and cold. He wanted to play more. "Maybe it will not rain. Maybe it will go away."
+
+Anna shook her head. She heard a loud boom. It was thunder. She saw a flash. It was lightning. She was scared. She hugged Ben. "We have to go down. It is not safe here. Come on, Ben, let's go to Mommy."
+
+Ben nodded. He was scared too. He held Anna's hand. They climbed down the tree. They ran to Mommy, who was sitting on a bench. She had an umbrella and a bag.
+
+"Mommy, Mommy, it is raining!" Anna said.
+
+"Mommy, Mommy, we were birds!" Ben said.
+
+Mommy smiled. She opened the umbrella and covered them. She hugged them. "I'm glad you had fun, my little birds. But now it is time to go home. Let's go to the car."
+
+She took the bag and led them to the car. She put the bag in the trunk. She opened the door and helped them get in. She buckled their seat belts.
+
+"What is in the bag, Mommy?" Anna asked.
+
+Mommy winked. "It is a surprise. It is something to make you happy on a gloomy day. It includes cookies and milk and a book. We can have a snack and read the book when we get home. How does that sound?"
+
+Anna and Ben clapped. They liked cookies and milk and books. They were not scared anymore. They were happy. They thanked Mommy and said they loved her. Mommy said she loved them too. She started the car and drove home.
+Sara and Tom were twins who liked to play together. One day, their mom gave them each a cookie as a snack. Sara got a chocolate chip cookie and Tom got a raisin cookie. Sara loved chocolate chips, but Tom did not like raisins.
+
+Tom looked at Sara's cookie and felt envious. He wanted to have a chocolate chip cookie too. He said to Sara, "Can I see your cookie?" Sara was nice and said, "OK, but don't eat it. It's mine." She gave her cookie to Tom.
+
+Tom pretended to examine Sara's cookie, but he really wanted to take a bite. He thought Sara would not notice if he ate a little bit. He opened his mouth and bit off a big piece of Sara's cookie.
+
+Sara saw what Tom did and was very angry. She shouted, "Hey, that's not fair! You ate my cookie! Give it back!" She tried to grab her cookie from Tom, but he held it tight. They started to fight over the cookie.
+
+Their mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Sara and Tom fighting and the cookie crumbs on the floor. She was very disappointed. She said, "You two should share and be nice to each other. Now you have ruined your snack and made a mess. No more cookies for you today. Go to your rooms and think about what you did."
+
+Sara and Tom felt sad and sorry. They wished they had not fought over the cookie. They realized they had made a big mistake. They learned a hard lesson that day.
+Jill and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They liked to swing, slide and run. One day, they saw a big wheel. It was shiny and colorful. It went round and round very fast.
+
+"Let's go on the big wheel!" Ben said. "It looks fun!"
+
+"I don't know," Jill said. "It looks scary. What if we get dizzy?"
+
+"Don't be silly," Ben said. "It's not scary. It's exciting. Come on, let's go!"
+
+Ben pulled Jill by the hand. They ran to the big wheel. They gave the man some coins. He let them in. He strapped them to a seat. He pushed a button. The big wheel started to move.
+
+Jill and Ben went up and up and up. They saw the trees, the birds, the sky. They felt the wind, the sun, the thrill. They laughed and shouted.
+
+"This is awesome!" Ben said. "See, I told you it's fun!"
+
+Jill smiled. She liked the view. She liked the feeling. She was not scared anymore.
+
+The big wheel went down and down and down. It went faster and faster and faster. It spun and spun and spun.
+
+Jill and Ben felt their heads spin too. They felt their stomachs turn. They felt their faces pale. They stopped laughing and shouting.
+
+"This is awful!" Jill said. "See, I told you it's scary!"
+
+Ben nodded. He felt sick. He wanted to get off. He wished he had listened to Jill.
+
+The big wheel stopped. The man unstrapped them. He helped them out. He saw their faces. He shook his head.
+
+"Are you okay?" he asked.
+
+Jill and Ben nodded. They felt weak. They held each other. They walked slowly to a bench. They sat down. They closed their eyes.
+
+"I'm sorry, Jill," Ben said. "You were right. The big wheel was too fast. It made us dizzy. I should have listened to you."
+
+"It's okay, Ben," Jill said. "You were brave. You wanted to try something new. I should have been more adventurous."
+
+They hugged each other. They felt better. They learned a lesson.
+
+They decided to play something else. Something less dizzy. Something more fun.
+
+They decided to play pretend. They pretended to be astronauts. They pretended to fly to the moon. They pretended to have a dream. A dream of a big wheel. A big wheel that was shiny and colorful. A big wheel that went round and round very slow. A big wheel that made them happy. A big wheel that was just right.
+On Wednesday, Ben and Lily went to the park with their mom. They saw a big slide and ran to play on it. Ben went first and slid down fast. He laughed and said, "This is fun!"
+
+Lily wanted to try too, but she was scared. She climbed up the ladder slowly and looked down. The slide was high and steep. She said, "I don't want to go. I want to go back."
+
+Ben saw her and said, "Don't be a baby. It's easy. Just slide down and I'll catch you."
+
+Lily shook her head and said, "No, no, no. I want to go back."
+
+Ben got angry and said, "Fine. Then stay there. I'll lock you up and you can't come down."
+
+He ran to the bottom of the slide and found a chain and a padlock. He wrapped the chain around the slide and locked it. He said, "Now you can't come down. You're locked up. Ha ha ha!"
+
+Lily started to cry. She said, "Ben, please. Let me out. I'm sorry. I'm scared. Please, Ben."
+
+Mom heard her and came to see what was wrong. She saw Ben and the chain and the padlock. She said, "Ben, what did you do? That's not nice. That's mean. You hurt Lily's feelings. How would you like it if someone locked you up?"
+
+Ben felt ashamed and said, "I'm sorry, Mom. I was mad. I wanted Lily to slide with me. I didn't mean to hurt her."
+
+Mom said, "You need to say sorry to Lily too. And unlock the chain. She's your sister. You should be kind and help her, not scare her and lock her up."
+
+Ben said, "Okay, Mom. I'm sorry, Lily. I'll unlock the chain. Please don't cry. I'll help you come down."
+
+He unlocked the chain and climbed up the ladder. He hugged Lily and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I love you. Do you want to slide with me? I'll hold your hand and we'll go slow."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I love you too, Ben. Thank you. I'll try to slide with you. But can we go on the small slide first?"
+
+Ben said, "Sure. Let's go on the small slide first. And then we can go on the big slide together."
+
+They slid down the small slide and then the big slide. They had fun and laughed. Mom was happy and proud. She said, "That's better. You're good kids. You learned to say sorry and to be kind. That's the moral of the story."
+Lily was a little girl who liked to learn new things. She learned how to draw, how to sing, how to count and how to read. She had many books and toys to help her learn. She was happy and proud of herself.
+
+One day, she wanted to learn how to ride a bike. She asked her mom to help her. Her mom said yes and took her to the park. There was a big bike with two wheels and a small bike with four wheels. Lily wanted to try the big bike, but her mom said it was too hard for her. She said she had to start with the small bike.
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She did not want to ride the small bike. She thought it was for babies. She wanted to show her mom that she could ride the big bike. She waited until her mom was not looking and ran to the big bike. She tried to get on it, but it was too high for her. She fell down and hurt her knee. She cried and cried.
+
+Her mom heard her cry and ran to her. She saw her knee bleeding and the big bike on the ground. She was very worried. She hugged Lily and said, "Oh, Lily, what did you do? You should have listened to me. The big bike is not for you. You have to learn step by step. You have to be careful and patient. I love you and I want you to be safe."
+
+Lily felt sorry and ashamed. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to learn how to ride the big bike. I wanted to make you happy. I did not mean to hurt myself. I love you too."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "It's okay, Lily. I'm happy when you learn new things, but you have to do it the right way. The small bike is not for babies. It's for beginners. It will help you learn how to balance and steer. Then you can try the big bike when you are ready. I have a hidden surprise for you. It's a helmet and a pair of gloves. They will protect your head and your hands when you ride. Do you want to see them?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom. Thank you. Can we go back to the park and try the small bike?"
+
+Her mom said, "Of course, Lily. Let's go. I'm sure you will learn how to ride the bike soon. You are a smart and brave girl. I'm proud of you."
+
+They went back to the park and Lily tried the small bike. She wore the helmet and the gloves. Her mom held her hand and helped her. Lily felt happy and excited. She learned how to ride the small bike. She had fun and she made her mom happy. She was not sad and angry anymore. She was not worried anymore. She was learning.
+Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play together. One day, they found a big box in the living room. They wondered what was inside. They decided to open it and see.
+
+"Maybe it is a toy for us," Tim said.
+
+"Or a cake for our birthday," Kim said.
+
+They lifted the lid and peeked inside. They saw something fluffy and brown. It moved and made a noise. "Woof!"
+
+"Surprise!" their mom and dad said. "We got you a puppy!"
+
+Tim and Kim were so happy. They hugged the puppy and gave it a name. They called it Coco. Coco licked their faces and wagged its tail. He was very friendly and cute.
+
+"Wow, he is impressive," Tim said. "He has big ears and a long nose."
+
+"And look at his toes," Kim said. "They are black and white. They look like socks."
+
+Tim and Kim thanked their mom and dad for the surprise. They played with Coco all day. They taught him to sit and fetch. They gave him a bowl of water and a bone. They made him a bed in their room.
+
+They loved their new puppy very much. Coco loved them too. He was their best friend.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to collect pebbles and make patterns with them. Sara had a lot of pebbles in her bucket. She had big ones, small ones, round ones, and shiny ones. Ben had only a few pebbles in his bucket. He wanted more.
+
+"Can I have some of your pebbles, Sara?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, they are mine. I found them first. Go find your own pebbles," Sara said.
+
+"But there are no more pebbles here. You took them all. Please share with me, Sara," Ben said.
+
+"No, I will not share. These are my pebbles. Go away, Ben," Sara said.
+
+Ben was sad and angry. He wanted to play with Sara, but she was not nice to him. He had an idea. He waited until Sara was not looking. Then he took her bucket and ran away.
+
+"Hey, give me back my bucket, Ben. That is not fair. That is not nice. That is mine," Sara shouted.
+
+She ran after Ben. She tried to catch him. But Ben was faster. He ran to the pond. He threw the bucket into the water. The pebbles splashed and sank.
+
+"There, now you have no pebbles, Sara. How do you like that?" Ben said.
+
+Sara was shocked and sad. She saw her pebbles disappear in the water. She liked her pebbles. She wanted them back. She started to cry.
+
+"Why did you do that, Ben? Why did you separate me from my pebbles? They were delicate. They were pretty. They were mine. You are mean, Ben. You are not my friend," Sara said.
+
+Ben felt sorry. He saw Sara crying. He realized he was wrong. He did not want to hurt Sara. He wanted to play with her. He wanted to be her friend.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara. I was wrong. I should not have taken your bucket. I should not have thrown your pebbles. I was jealous. I wanted some pebbles too. But I should have asked you nicely. Can you forgive me, Sara? Can we be friends again?" Ben said.
+
+Sara looked at Ben. She saw he was sorry. She remembered he was her friend. She stopped crying. She nodded.
+
+"OK, Ben. I forgive you. We can be friends again. But next time, please share with me. And please don't separate me from my pebbles. They are delicate. They are pretty. They are mine. But I can share them with you," Sara said.
+
+Ben smiled. He hugged Sara. They walked to the pond. They looked for the pebbles. They found some of them. They picked them up. They made patterns with them. They played together. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily were playing pirates in the garden. They had a big box that they pretended was their ship. They also had a map that showed them where to find treasure.
+
+"Look, the map says we have to dig under the big tree," Ben said, pointing to a drawing of a tree with an X under it.
+
+"Let's go, matey!" Lily said, grabbing a shovel. They ran to the tree and started to dig.
+
+Soon, they hit something hard. They cleared the dirt and saw a shiny metal box.
+
+"Wow, we found the treasure!" Ben exclaimed, opening the box. Inside, there were many things: a necklace, a ring, a coin, a key, and a book.
+
+"What are these things?" Lily asked, picking up the book. It had a lot of words and pictures that they could not read.
+
+"I don't know, but they look interesting," Ben replied, putting the necklace around his neck. "Maybe they belonged to a real pirate."
+
+"Or a princess," Lily said, trying on the ring. "Or a wizard."
+
+They looked at each other and smiled. They had found the best treasure ever: a treasure that made them imagine.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two buttons for eyes. They were very happy.
+
+But then they saw something shiny on the lake. It was ice. It looked like glass. Sara wanted to touch it. She ran to the lake and tried to reach the ice.
+
+"Stop, Sara!" Ben shouted. "The ice is not safe. You can fall in the water. It is very cold and deep. Come back!"
+
+But Sara did not listen. She wanted to see the ice. She reached out her hand and touched it. It was cold and smooth. She smiled.
+
+But then the ice cracked. Sara felt the ice move under her feet. She was scared. She tried to go back, but she slipped. She fell in the water. She screamed.
+
+Ben heard her scream. He was very worried. He ran to the lake. He saw Sara in the water. She was wet and cold. She looked confused. She did not know what to do.
+
+Ben grabbed a big stick. He threw it to Sara. He said, "Sara, hold the stick. I will pull you out. Don't be afraid. I am here."
+
+Sara saw the stick. She grabbed it. Ben pulled her out of the water. He hugged her. He said, "Sara, you are safe. But you were very silly. You should not go on the ice. It is dangerous. You could have died."
+
+Sara cried. She said, "I am sorry, Ben. I was curious. I wanted to see the ice. But it was a bad idea. I was stupid. Thank you for saving me."
+
+Ben said, "It's okay, Sara. I love you. You are my sister. But next time, listen to me. I know what is good for you."
+
+They went back to their snowman. They gave him a hug. They said, "We are sorry, Mr. Snowman. We will not leave you again. You are our friend."
+
+They went home. They told their mom what happened. She was angry and scared. But she was also glad. She said, "You are very lucky, Sara. Ben is a brave boy. He saved your life. You should be grateful. And you should never go on the ice again. Do you understand?"
+
+Sara and Ben nodded. They said, "Yes, mom. We understand. We are sorry. We love you."
+
+Mom said, "I love you too. Now go and change your clothes. You are wet and cold. And then have some hot chocolate. It will make you feel better."
+
+Sara and Ben did as mom said. They changed their clothes. They had some hot chocolate. They felt warm and cozy. They learned their lesson. They never went on the ice again.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play with their toys. They had many cars, trucks, and trains, but their favorite toy was a big yellow crane. They used the crane to lift and move things around their room.
+
+One day, their mom said they had to decorate their room for Christmas. She gave them some lights, stars, and balls to hang on the walls and the window. Tim and Sam were excited to make their room look pretty.
+
+"Let's use the crane to help us decorate!" Tim said. He grabbed the crane and put a star on its hook. He moved the crane to the wall and tried to hang the star.
+
+"No, I want to use the crane!" Sam said. He pulled the crane away from Tim and put a ball on its hook. He moved the crane to the window and tried to hang the ball.
+
+"Stop it, Sam! It's my turn!" Tim said. He pushed Sam and took the crane back. He put a light on its hook and moved the crane to the door.
+
+"Give me the crane, Tim! It's not fair!" Sam said. He kicked Tim and grabbed the crane. He put a star on its hook and moved the crane to the ceiling.
+
+Tim and Sam started to fight over the crane. They yelled and cried and pulled and pushed. The crane swung back and forth and hit the walls and the window. The lights, stars, and balls fell to the floor and broke. The room was a mess.
+
+Their mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw the broken decorations and the angry brothers. She was very sad and mad.
+
+"Tim and Sam, what have you done?" she said. "You were supposed to decorate your room, not destroy it! And you were supposed to share your toys, not fight over them! The crane is not yours, it is ours. You have to learn to play nicely and cooperate. Now you have to clean up this mess and apologize to each other. And no more crane for today!"
+
+Tim and Sam felt sorry and ashamed. They knew they had been bad and hurt their mom. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They helped their mom clean up the room and fix the decorations. They promised to be good and share their toys. They learned that the crane was a mighty toy, but it was not worth losing their love.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play in the living room. They had many toys and books, but their favorite thing was the fireplace. They liked to watch the flames dance and hear the wood crackle. Sometimes, their mom or dad would let them roast marshmallows on a stick over the fire.
+
+One day, when mom and dad were busy in the kitchen, Anna and Ben decided to play with the fireplace by themselves. They found some matches and paper in a drawer and sneaked to the living room. They thought it would be fun to make their own fire and roast marshmallows.
+
+"Look, I can light a match!" Anna said, holding a match in her hand. She struck it on the box and it made a bright spark.
+
+"Wow, let me try!" Ben said, grabbing another match. He did the same and smiled.
+
+They threw the matches into the fireplace, where there was some wood and coal. They watched as the matches caught fire and spread to the wood and coal. They clapped their hands and cheered.
+
+"Let's make it bigger!" Anna said, picking up some paper. She crumpled it and threw it into the fire.
+
+"Good idea!" Ben said, doing the same. They added more and more paper, until the fire was very big and hot.
+
+They did not notice that some of the paper flew out of the fireplace and landed on the rug. They did not smell the smoke or hear the alarm. They only saw the fire and thought it was harmless.
+
+"Look, the fire is so pretty!" Anna said, holding a stick with a marshmallow.
+
+"Yummy, let's eat!" Ben said, holding another stick.
+
+They leaned over the fireplace, trying to roast their marshmallows. They did not see that the rug was on fire, too. They did not hear their mom and dad running into the living room. They only felt the heat and thought it was cozy.
+
+"Anna! Ben! Get away from the fire!" mom shouted, grabbing them and pulling them back.
+
+"Dad! Help! The rug is on fire!" dad yelled, grabbing a blanket and throwing it over the rug.
+
+They put out the fire and checked if Anna and Ben were hurt. They were not, but they were scared and sorry.
+
+"Anna, Ben, what were you thinking?" mom asked, hugging them.
+
+"We wanted to play with the fireplace," Anna said, sobbing.
+
+"We thought it was harmless," Ben said, sniffling.
+
+"You know you should never play with fire, right?" dad asked, sternly.
+
+"Yes, we know," Anna and Ben said, nodding.
+
+"Fire is dangerous, it can burn you and the house," dad said, gently.
+
+"We're sorry, we won't do it again," Anna and Ben said, sincerely.
+
+Mom and dad forgave them and explained how to be safe around fire. They also gave them some cookies and milk to calm them down. They told them they loved them and they were glad they were okay.
+
+Anna and Ben learned their lesson and never played with fire again. They still liked the fireplace, but only when mom or dad were with them. They also liked the cookies and milk, but only when they were not on fire.
+Lila and Tom are playing in the garden. They see a big cactus with many spikes. Lila wants to touch it, but Tom says no.
+
+"It is ouchy. It can hurt you," Tom says.
+
+Lila does not listen. She runs to the cactus and puts her hand on it. She feels a sharp pain and cries out loud.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Lila says.
+
+Tom runs to her and tries to help her. He takes her hand and sees many little spikes in it. He pulls them out one by one. Lila still cries.
+
+"I told you not to touch it. Why did you not listen?" Tom says.
+
+Lila is sorry. She says she was curious. She says she is sorry.
+
+Tom is grumpy. He says she should be more careful. He says he is mad at her.
+
+Lila feels bad. She says she loves him. She says she wants to hug him.
+
+Tom is still grumpy. He says he does not want to hug her. He says he wants to lie down.
+
+Lila follows him. She lies down next to him. She puts her arm around him. She says she is sorry again.
+
+Tom feels her arm. He feels her warm. He feels her soft. He feels her love.
+
+Tom is not grumpy anymore. He says he loves her too. He says he is sorry too.
+
+Lila and Tom hug each other. They smile. They are happy. They forget about the cactus.
+Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the valley near their homes. The valley had many flowers, trees and animals. Lily and Tom were happy there.
+
+One day, they found a big basket of fruits in the valley. It was a gift from a generous farmer who lived on the other side of the hill. Lily and Tom were hungry and excited. They wanted to eat the fruits.
+
+But Lily had an idea. She said to Tom, "Let's share the fruits with the animals. They are our friends too. They will be happy and thank us." Tom agreed. He liked the animals too.
+
+So Lily and Tom took some fruits and gave them to the birds, the squirrels, the rabbits and the deer. The animals were happy and thanked them. They ate the fruits and smiled.
+
+But when Lily and Tom went back to the basket, they saw that it was empty. Someone had taken all the fruits. Lily and Tom were sad and angry. They wondered who had done it.
+
+They looked around and saw a fox hiding behind a bush. The fox had a big belly and a guilty face. He had eaten all the fruits. He was greedy and selfish.
+
+Lily and Tom shouted at the fox, "You are bad! You took all the fruits! You did not share with anyone! You are not our friend!"
+
+The fox was scared and ashamed. He ran away and disappeared into the woods. He did not come back to the valley. He knew he had done wrong.
+
+Lily and Tom learned a lesson. They learned that sharing is good and greedy is bad. They learned that being generous makes you happy and being selfish makes you lonely. They learned that friends are more important than fruits. They hugged each other and went home. They were still best friends.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her toys. She had a lot of dolls, cars, blocks and animals. But her favorite toy was a magic wand that could make things shrink or grow. She liked to make her dolls smaller and put them in her shoe, or make her blocks bigger and build a castle.
+
+One day, Lily was playing with her wand in her room. She saw her brother's shoe on the floor. He had left it there when he went to school. Lily thought it would be fun to make his shoe shrink. She pointed her wand at the shoe and said, "Shrink, shrink, shrink!"
+
+The shoe became smaller and smaller, until it was the size of a coin. Lily giggled and picked it up. She put it in her pocket and went to play with her dolls.
+
+When her brother came home, he looked for his shoe. He could not find it anywhere. He asked his mom, his dad, and Lily, but no one knew where it was. He was very grumpy. He needed his shoe to go to soccer practice. He stomped around the house, making a lot of noise.
+
+Lily heard him and felt sorry. She knew she had done something bad. She took out the shoe from her pocket and went to her brother. She said, "I'm sorry, I made your shoe shrink. I was playing with my wand. Here, I can make it big again."
+
+She pointed her wand at the shoe and said, "Grow, grow, grow!"
+
+The shoe became bigger and bigger, until it was the right size for her brother. He was surprised and happy. He thanked Lily and gave her a hug. He said, "That's okay, I forgive you. But please don't play with my shoes again. And be careful with your wand. It's very powerful."
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She said, "I promise. I love you, brother."
+
+They went to play together, and Lily put her wand away. She learned to be more careful with her magic.
+Lily was sick. She had a heavy head and a hot nose. Mommy put a thermometer in her mouth and looked at the numbers. "You have a fever, my sweetie," Mommy said. "You need to rest and drink water."
+
+Lily did not like being sick. She wanted to play with her toys and watch cartoons. She felt bored and sad in her bed. She hugged her teddy bear and closed her eyes.
+
+Daddy came home from work and went to see Lily. He saw her lying in bed with her teddy bear. He smiled and kissed her forehead. "How are you feeling, pumpkin?" he asked.
+
+Lily opened her eyes and saw Daddy. She smiled a little and said, "I feel sick, Daddy. Mommy said I have a fever."
+
+Daddy hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, pumpkin. I know it's not fun to be sick. But you will get better soon. I love you very much." He kissed her again and said, "Do you want me to read you a story?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, please, Daddy. I like stories."
+
+Daddy picked up a book from the shelf and sat on the bed. He opened the book and began to read. Lily listened and felt a little better. She liked hearing Daddy's voice and seeing the pictures. She cuddled with her teddy bear and Daddy. She hoped she would feel well tomorrow.
+Lily was a big girl who liked to draw with crayons. She had many colors and papers to make pictures. One day, she wanted to draw a rainbow. She took a blue crayon and made a big curve. Then she took a red crayon and made another curve. She did the same with yellow, green, orange and purple. She was very happy with her rainbow.
+
+She showed her rainbow to her mom. "Look, mom, I made a rainbow!" she said proudly.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged her. "That's a beautiful rainbow, Lily. You are very successful at drawing. I'm so proud of you."
+
+Lily felt warm and happy. She wanted to show her rainbow to her dad too. She ran to the living room where dad was reading a book. "Dad, dad, look at my rainbow!" she shouted.
+
+Dad looked up and saw her rainbow. He was also very happy. He put down his book and picked up Lily. He kissed her cheek and said, "Wow, Lily, that's a wonderful rainbow. You are very successful at drawing. I'm so proud of you too."
+
+Lily felt even happier. She rubbed her face against dad's beard and giggled. She loved her mom and dad. She loved her rainbow. She was a successful girl.
+Tom is a soldier. He has a big hat and a gun. He likes to help people and keep them safe. He feels useful when he does his job.
+
+One day, Tom has to go to a far place. There are bad people there who want to hurt others. Tom and his friends go on a big plane. They fly over the sea and the land. Tom feels excited and scared.
+
+When they get to the far place, Tom and his friends get off the plane. They see a lot of dust and smoke. They hear loud noises and screams. Tom feels sad and angry. He wants to stop the bad people.
+
+Tom and his friends run to a small house. There are some people inside. They are hurt and scared. Tom and his friends help them. They give them water and bandages. They tell them they are safe. The people smile and thank them. Tom feels happy and proud.
+
+Tom and his friends stay in the far place for a long time. They help more people and fight the bad people. They miss their home and their families. They feel tired and lonely.
+
+One day, Tom and his friends get on the big plane again. They fly back over the sea and the land. They see their home and their families. They hug and kiss them. They feel happy and loved. Tom is a soldier. He has a big hat and a gun. He likes to help people and keep them safe. He feels useful when he does his job.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in their room. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big mirror that their mom gave them. They liked to make funny faces and pretend to be different animals in the mirror.
+
+One day, Tom had a naughty idea. He found some mud in the garden and smeared it on his hands. He ran to the room and said to Lily, "Look, I have a surprise for you!" He pointed to the mirror and said, "See, you are a dirty pig!" He laughed and laughed.
+
+Lily was very sad and angry. She saw her face covered in mud in the mirror. She cried and said, "That's not nice, Tom! You are a mean brother! You ruined our mirror!" She tried to wipe the mud off, but it only made it worse.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the room. She saw the mess and was very upset. She said, "What have you done, Tom? You know you are not supposed to play with mud in the house! And you hurt your sister's feelings! You have to apologize and clean the mirror right now!"
+
+Tom felt sorry and ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I'm sorry, Mom. I was just trying to be funny. I didn't mean to make you sad or angry." He took a cloth and some water and tried to clean the mirror. But it was too late. The mud had dried and stained the mirror. No matter how hard he scrubbed, he could not make it shiny again.
+
+Mom said, "I'm afraid you have to learn a hard lesson, Tom. You have to be careful with your words and actions. They can hurt others and damage things. And sometimes, you can't fix what you break. You have to live with the consequences. You have to share this mirror with Lily, and you have to look at your dirty face every day. Maybe that will remind you to be kind and respectful."
+
+Tom nodded and hugged Lily. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I love you. You are not a dirty pig. You are a beautiful sister." Lily smiled and hugged him back. She said, "I love you too, Tom. You are not a mean brother. You are a silly brother. But please don't do that again."
+
+They looked at the mirror and saw their faces. They were still dirty, but they were also happy. They learned a valuable lesson that day. They learned to be careful with their words and actions. They learned to be kind and respectful. And they learned to love each other.
+Anna and Ben were playing with mud in the garden. They made mud pies and mud castles and mud animals. They were very happy and dirty.
+
+"Look, I made a mud cat!" Anna said, showing Ben her mud creation.
+
+"Wow, that's a good cat!" Ben said. "But I made a mud dragon! It can fly and breathe fire!"
+
+He lifted his mud dragon and pretended to make it fly and roar. But he was not careful and he dropped it on Anna's head. The mud dragon broke and Anna felt pain.
+
+"Ow! That hurts!" Anna cried. "You are mean, Ben! You broke my mud cat and you hurt me!"
+
+She ran to the house, crying and covered in mud. Ben felt sorry and followed her.
+
+"Anna, wait! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to hurt you!" Ben said. "Let me help you wash the mud off!"
+
+He tried to catch up with Anna, but he slipped on the wet grass and fell. He scraped his knee and felt pain too.
+
+"Ow! That hurts!" Ben cried. "Now I'm dirty and hurt too!"
+
+He looked up and saw Anna at the door. She was angry and did not want to help him.
+
+"Go away, Ben! You are bad! You can wash yourself!" Anna said. She slammed the door and left Ben alone.
+
+Ben was sad and lonely. He wished he had not dropped his mud dragon. He wished he had not hurt Anna. He wished he had a smooth band-aid for his knee. He wished he had a friend to play with. But he had none of those things. He had only mud and pain.
+Sam and Lily are playing with their toy cars in the garden. They have a big hill of dirt and some rocks to make a track. Sam has a red car and Lily has a blue car. They want to see whose car is faster.
+
+"Ready, set, go!" Sam says and pushes his car down the hill. Lily does the same with her car. The cars zoom and bump along the track. Sam's car is ahead, but Lily's car is catching up.
+
+"Come on, blue car!" Lily cheers. "You can do it!"
+
+But then, Sam's car hits a big rock and flips over. It lands on its wheels, but it stops moving. Lily's car passes by and reaches the end of the track.
+
+"I win, I win!" Lily shouts and jumps up and down. She runs to get her car and hugs it.
+
+"Aw, no fair!" Sam says and runs to get his car. He tries to make it move, but it does not. He looks at the car and sees a string coming out of the back. He pulls the string and hears a click.
+
+"What's that?" Lily asks and comes closer.
+
+Sam pulls the string again and the car makes a loud noise. It is a start! The car has a start that makes it go faster.
+
+"Wow!" Lily says. "That's incredible! How did you do that?"
+
+Sam smiles and shrugs. He does not know how he did that. He just found the car in the garage. He thinks it is a magic car.
+
+"Can I try?" Lily asks.
+
+"Sure!" Sam says. He lets Lily pull the start and hear the noise. Then they take turns pushing their cars down the hill. They have more fun with the start. They do not care who wins or loses. They are happy to play with their incredible cars.
+Anna and Ben are playing with blocks in the living room. They like to build towers and houses and cars with the blocks. They have many colors and shapes of blocks.
+
+"Look, Anna, I made a big tower!" Ben says, showing his blocks to his sister.
+
+"Wow, Ben, you are smart! Your tower is very tall and strong!" Anna says, admiring his work.
+
+Anna wants to make a tower too, but she does not have enough blocks. She sees some blocks on the table, next to a glass of water. She reaches for the blocks, but she is too small. She knocks over the glass and the water spills on the table and the floor.
+
+"Oh no, Anna, what did you do?" Ben says, seeing the mess.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben, I wanted more blocks. But I break the glass and make everything wet!" Anna says, feeling sad and scared.
+
+Ben is angry at first, but he sees that Anna is crying. He remembers that he loves his sister and he does not want her to be sad. He hugs her and says, "It's okay, Anna, don't cry. We can clean up the water and get more blocks. Maybe we can share the blocks and build a tower together."
+
+Anna smiles and says, "Thank you, Ben, you are very nice. And you are smart too. I like to play with you."
+
+They get a towel and wipe the water from the table and the floor. Then they get more blocks and build a tower together. They are happy and proud of their tower. They show it to their mom and dad, who praise them for being smart and kind.
+Tim and Mia liked to play with their toy automobiles. They had many different kinds, big and small, red and blue, fast and slow. They liked to make them zoom and beep and crash on the floor.
+
+One day, they saw a real automobile outside their window. It was very big and shiny and had four doors. It was the most impressive automobile they had ever seen. They wanted to go and touch it and look inside.
+
+"Can we go and see the automobile, Mommy?" Tim asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. It belongs to our neighbor, Mr. Lee. He just washed it and it is very dry and clean. Don't make it dirty or scratch it, okay?" Mommy said.
+
+"Okay, Mommy. We will be careful," Mia said.
+
+They put on their shoes and ran outside. They saw Mr. Lee sitting on a chair next to the automobile. He smiled and waved at them.
+
+"Hello, Tim and Mia. Do you like my automobile?" he asked.
+
+"Yes, we do. It is very impressive. Can we look at it?" Tim asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. But don't touch it too much. It is very dry and I don't want any fingerprints on it," Mr. Lee said.
+
+"Okay, we won't touch it too much," Mia said.
+
+They walked around the automobile and admired its color, its wheels, its lights, and its windows. They peeked inside and saw the seats, the steering wheel, the radio, and the buttons. They wished they could sit inside and pretend to drive.
+
+They thanked Mr. Lee for letting them see his automobile and went back to their house. They played with their toy automobiles and imagined they were as big and shiny and impressive as Mr. Lee's. They had a lot of fun.
+Sam and Mia were playing in the garden. They liked to look for insects and make them their friends. They had a jar with holes in the lid, where they put some grass and water for their insect friends.
+
+"Look, Mia, I found a big ant!" Sam said, holding a black ant in his hand. "He is very strong and fast. He can be our leader."
+
+"No, Sam, I found a better insect. Look, a ladybug!" Mia said, showing a red and black bug on her palm. "She is very pretty and lucky. She can be our queen."
+
+Sam and Mia started to argue. They both wanted their insect to be the best. They did not want to share the jar or the grass or the water. They did not want to play together anymore.
+
+"Fine, then. You can have your ladybug. But I will not give you my ant. He is mine!" Sam said, putting his ant in his pocket.
+
+"Fine, then. You can have your ant. But I will not give you my ladybug. She is mine!" Mia said, holding her bug close to her chest.
+
+They turned away from each other and walked to different corners of the garden. They felt sad and lonely. They missed their friend.
+
+After a while, they heard a loud buzz. They looked up and saw a big bee flying over their heads. The bee saw the jar with the grass and the water. He wanted to drink some nectar. He flew down and landed on the lid. He tried to push it open with his legs.
+
+Sam and Mia saw the bee. They felt scared. They knew the bee could sting them and hurt them. They did not want the bee to take their jar or their insects. They ran to each other and hugged.
+
+"Sam, I'm sorry. I don't want to fight with you. You can have your ant. He is very reliable. He can help us." Mia said.
+
+"Mia, I'm sorry. I don't want to fight with you. You can have your ladybug. She is very kind. She can cheer us up." Sam said.
+
+They decided to surrender their insects to each other. They put them in the jar together. They saw the ant and the ladybug crawling on the grass. They looked happy and friendly. They were not afraid of the bee.
+
+Sam and Mia smiled. They felt happy and friendly. They were not afraid of the bee. They held the jar and walked back to the house. They were friends again.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers. They saw a lizard on a rock. It was green and brown and had a long tail.
+
+"Wow, look at the lizard!" Tim said. "It is so cool!"
+
+Lily nodded. She wanted to touch the lizard. She moved closer to the rock. The lizard did not move. It was very patient.
+
+"Can I pet it?" Lily asked. "It is so pretty!"
+
+Tim shook his head. He was not sure. He wondered if the lizard would bite or run away.
+
+"I don't know," he said. "Maybe it is scared of us."
+
+Lily was curious. She reached out her hand slowly. The lizard looked at her with its small eyes. It did not blink.
+
+"Hello, lizard," Lily said softly. "Don't be afraid. We are your friends."
+
+The lizard tilted its head. It seemed to listen. It did not hiss or hide. It let Lily touch its back gently. It felt smooth and warm.
+
+Lily smiled. She was happy. She made a new friend.
+
+"See, it is nice," she said to Tim. "You can pet it too."
+
+Tim nodded. He was brave. He moved closer to the rock. He touched the lizard with his finger. It did not mind. It stayed on the rock.
+
+Tim and Lily were amazed. They liked the lizard. They thanked it for being patient. They said goodbye and went to look for more bugs and flowers. The lizard watched them go. It was not lonely. It had met two kind children.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, it is very cold. Lily has a scarf. Ben does not have a scarf.
+
+"Can I wear your scarf?" Ben asks Lily. "I am cold."
+
+"No, you cannot," Lily says. "This is my scarf. It is very pretty. My grandma gave it to me. She is rich. She lives in a big house."
+
+Ben is sad. He wants a scarf too. He looks at the other kids in the park. They all have scarves. They are warm and happy.
+
+Lily sees Ben is sad. She feels sorry for him. She thinks of her grandma. She loves her grandma. She remembers what her grandma told her.
+
+"Sharing is caring," her grandma said. "If you have something nice, you can share it with your friends. It will make them happy. And it will make you happy too."
+
+Lily thinks of Ben. He is her friend. She wants him to be happy. She wants to be happy too.
+

+
+One day, their mom says, "Boys, you watch too much TV. You need to play outside and do your homework. TV is not good for you all the time."
+
+Sam and Ben do not listen. They say, "No, mom, we want to watch TV. TV is fun and we learn things. Please, mom, let us watch TV."
+
+Mom is angry. She says, "No, boys, you have to turn off the TV now. If you watch more TV, you have to pay. TV costs money and electricity. You have to help mom and dad pay for TV. Do you have money?"
+
+Sam and Ben do not have money. They only have toys and books and crayons. They do not want to pay for TV. They say, "No, mom, we do not have money. We do not want to pay for TV. We want to watch TV for free."
+
+Mom is very angry. She says, "Fine, boys, you do not want to pay for TV. Then you do not get to watch TV at all. I will take away the TV and you will never see it again."

+Lily liked to play with her figures. She had many figures of animals, people and cars. She liked to make stories with them and talk to them. One day, she wanted to play with her figure of a cat, but she could not find it. She looked under her bed, in her toy box and behind the sofa, but the cat was not there.
+
+She asked her mom, "Mom, where is my cat figure? I want to play with it."
+
+Mom said, "I don't know, Lily. Maybe you left it somewhere else. Why don't you play with another figure instead?"
+
+Lily said, "No, I want my cat. It is my favorite figure. It is soft and cute and it purrs when I squeeze it."
+
+Mom said, "I'm sorry, Lily. Maybe we can find it later. Or maybe we can buy a new cat figure for you. Would you like that?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She liked her cat figure very much, but she also liked to have new toys. She said, "OK, Mom. Maybe we can buy a new cat figure. But can we look for my old cat figure too?"
+
+Mom said, "Of course, Lily. We can look for your old cat figure when we go to the store. Maybe it is in the car or in your backpack. And we can also look for a new cat figure that you like. But we have to go soon, because the store will close. Are you ready to go?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, Mom. I am ready. But can we go slow? I want to see all the figures in the store. Maybe I will find another figure that I like too."
+
+Mom said, "Sure, Lily. We can go slow. But not too slow, OK? We don't want to miss the store. Come on, let's go."
+
+Lily and Mom went to the car and drove to the store. Lily hoped to find her old cat figure and a new cat figure. She was happy to go with Mom and see all the figures. She liked to play with her figures.

+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a man with a big red balloon. He said he would give them the balloon if they did a trick for him.
+
+"What kind of trick?" Lily asked.
+
+"Can you whip this rope and make a loud sound?" the man said. He gave them a cheap rope that was frayed and thin.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They wanted the balloon very much. They took turns to whip the rope, but it did not make any sound. It only flopped on the ground.
+
+The man laughed. He said they were silly and could not whip. He said he would keep the balloon for himself.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sad and angry. They did not like the man. He was mean and lied to them.
+
+They decided to hurry and run away from him. They saw a nice lady with a dog. The dog had a big collar with a shiny bell.
+
+"Can we pet your dog?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, he loves children," the lady said. She smiled and let them stroke the dog's fur.
+
+The dog wagged his tail and licked their faces. He made a happy sound with his bell.
+
+Lily and Ben felt happy and forgot about the balloon. They liked the dog and the lady. They were kind and told them the truth.
+Lily was going to a party with her mom and dad. She put on her new dress and shoes. She felt very happy and pretty. She wanted to show her dress to her friends.
+
+But when she got to the party, she saw something bad. Her dress had a zip on the back. And the zip was open. She could see her underwear. She felt very hot and scared. She did not want anyone to see her underwear.
+
+She ran to her mom and said, "Mom, help me! My zip is open! I am embarrass!"
+
+Her mom looked at her and said, "Oh, Lily, don't worry. It's okay. It's just a small mistake. Come here, I will fix it for you."
+
+Her mom zipped up her dress and gave her a hug. She said, "There, now you are all clean and nice. You look beautiful, Lily. Don't be embarrass. Everyone makes mistakes sometimes. It's not a big deal. Just smile and have fun."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. You are the best. I love you."
+
+She felt better and went to play with her friends. She had a lot of fun at the party. She forgot about the zip and the underwear. She was happy and proud of her dress. She was not embarrass anymore.
+Tom and Anna were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They were having fun. But they were also hungry. They wanted to eat lunch.
+
+"Let's go home and have lunch," Tom said to Anna.
+
+"OK," Anna said. "But what will we eat?"
+
+"I don't know. Maybe Mom made us something good. Or maybe we can make our own lunch. We can use the bread and cheese and jam in the fridge."
+
+They ran home and went to the kitchen. They saw the bread and cheese and jam on the table. They were happy. They took some bread and cheese and jam and made sandwiches. They did not see Mom anywhere.
+
+"Where is Mom?" Anna asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe she is in the bathroom. Or maybe she went to the store. It doesn't matter. We can eat our lunch now."
+
+They bit into their sandwiches. But they did not like them. They tasted bad. They spit them out.
+
+"Yuck!" Tom said. "This bread is hard. And this cheese is smelly. And this jam is sour. This is not good lunch. This is spoiled lunch."
+
+They looked at the bread and cheese and jam. They saw green and white and black spots on them. They were moldy. They felt sick.
+
+"Mom!" Anna cried. "Mom, where are you? We ate spoiled lunch. We need help."
+
+But Mom did not hear them. She was not in the bathroom. She was not at the store. She was at the hospital. She had a car accident on her way to the park. She wanted to surprise them with a picnic. But she never made it. She was hurt. She could not come home. She could not help them. She could not hug them. She could not say sorry. She could not say I love you.
+Anna was a girl who liked to go on trips with her family. She always had a big bag with her toys, books and clothes. She liked to unpack her bag when she got to a new place and see what she could play with.
+
+One day, Anna and her family went to a big house in the woods. It was her grandma's house, but Anna had never been there before. She was excited to see what was inside. She ran to her room and opened her bag. She took out her doll, her puzzle and her crayons. She put them on the bed and looked around.
+
+The room was very old and had many things that Anna did not know. There was a big closet with a lock, a dresser with a mirror and a shelf with books and pictures. Anna saw something shiny on the shelf. She climbed on a chair and reached for it. It was a small box with a key. Anna was curious. She wanted to see what was in the box. She turned the key and opened the lid.
+
+Inside the box, there was a necklace with a pendant. The pendant was a star with a blue stone in the middle. It sparkled in the light. Anna thought it was very pretty. She put the necklace around her neck and looked in the mirror. She felt like a princess.
+
+"Anna, what are you doing?" She heard her mom's voice from the door. Anna turned around and smiled.
+
+"Look, mom, I found a necklace. It was in a box on the shelf. Can I keep it?" She asked.
+
+Her mom looked surprised and came closer. She looked at the necklace and the box. She frowned.
+
+"Anna, this is not yours. This is grandma's. It is very old and very special. It is a family treasure. Grandma told me a story about it. She said it was a gift from a mysterious friend who lived in the stars. He gave it to her when she was a little girl, like you. He said it was a sign of their friendship and that he would always watch over her. Grandma loves this necklace very much. You should not take it without asking. You should put it back in the box and on the shelf. Maybe grandma will tell you the story later, if you are good." She said.
+
+Anna felt sorry. She did not mean to make her mom angry or to take something that was not hers. She took off the necklace and put it back in the box. She closed the lid and locked it. She put the box on the shelf and climbed down from the chair.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. I did not know. It was so pretty. I just wanted to see it. I will not touch it again. I will ask grandma to tell me the story. Can I still play with my toys?" She said.
+
+Her mom hugged her and kissed her. She was not angry anymore. She was glad that Anna was honest and kind.
+
+"Of course you can, sweetie. You can play with your toys and have fun. But remember, some things are not for playing. They are for keeping and cherishing. They have stories and memories that make them special. Maybe one day, when you are older, grandma will give you the necklace. But for now, you have to respect it and leave it alone. Okay?" She said.
+
+Anna nodded and smiled. She understood. She was happy to have her mom and her toys. She was also happy to have a grandma who had a mysterious friend in the stars. She wondered what he looked like and what he did. She hoped he would watch over her too. She decided to ask grandma later, when they had tea and cookies. She thought it would be a nice story to hear.
+Lily and Max were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for shiny things. One day, they found a big crystal that was very pretty. It had many colors and it sparkled in the sun.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Lily said. "It's a magic crystal!"
+
+"Can I see?" Max asked. He reached for the crystal, but Lily pulled it away.
+
+"No, it's mine!" she said. "I found it first!"
+
+"But I want to play with it too!" Max said. He tried to grab the crystal, but Lily ran away.
+
+"Stop, Lily, stop!" Max shouted. He chased her around the garden, but he could not catch her.
+
+Lily ran into the shed, where they kept their toys and tools. She hid behind a box and hugged the crystal. She felt happy and proud. She looked at the crystal and saw that it was glowing. It was very bright and warm.
+
+"Wow, it's a magic crystal!" she said again. She smiled and kissed the crystal.
+
+Max followed her into the shed. He saw the light from the crystal and heard Lily's voice. He was angry and jealous. He wanted the crystal too.
+
+"Give me the crystal, Lily!" he said. He pushed the box away and saw Lily with the crystal.
+
+"No, go away, Max!" Lily said. She held the crystal tighter and glared at Max.
+
+They both stared at each other, ready to fight. They did not see that the shed was very messy and untidy. There were toys and tools everywhere, and some of them were sharp and dangerous.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was their mom, who came to see what they were doing.
+
+"What are you two doing in here?" she asked. She saw the shed and gasped. "This is a mess! And what is that glowing thing?"
+
+She walked towards them and saw the crystal. She was surprised and curious. She reached for the crystal, but Lily and Max both screamed.
+
+"No, mom, no!" they said. They both let go of the crystal and jumped on their mom. They hugged her and begged her not to take the crystal.
+
+"Please, mom, please!" they said. "It's our magic crystal! We found it in the garden! It's very pretty and special! Please let us keep it!"
+
+Their mom looked at them and smiled. She saw that they both loved the crystal and wanted to share it. She also saw that they loved her and wanted to make her happy.
+
+"Okay, okay," she said. "You can keep the crystal, but only if you promise to do two things. First, you have to tidy up this shed and put everything back where it belongs. Second, you have to play nicely with each other and take turns with the crystal. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Max nodded and smiled. They agreed to do what their mom said. They thanked her and kissed her. They took the crystal and started to tidy up the shed. They worked together and helped each other. They also played with the crystal and let each other hold it. They were happy and friendly.
+
+Their mom watched them and smiled. She was proud and glad. She thought the crystal was a magic crystal too. It made her children glow.
+Tommy loved to play with his guitar. He had a regular guitar, not a big one or a shiny one, but he liked it very much. He liked to make sounds with it and pretend he was a singer.
+
+One day, he went to his friend Lily's house. Lily had a new guitar. It was big and shiny and had many buttons. Tommy wanted to play with it, but Lily said no. She said it was her guitar and she did not want to share.
+
+Tommy was angry. He said, "Give me your guitar! I want to play with it! It is better than mine!" He tried to grab it from Lily, but Lily held it tight. She said, "No, Tommy! You are being rude! You have to ask nicely if you want to play with something that is not yours!"
+
+Tommy did not listen. He kept demanding Lily's guitar. He pushed her and pulled her and made her cry. Lily's mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Tommy and Lily fighting over the guitar. She was not happy.
+
+She said, "Tommy, what are you doing? You are hurting Lily and being mean! You cannot demand things from others. You have to respect their things and their feelings. How would you like it if someone did that to you and your guitar?"
+
+Tommy felt ashamed. He realized he was wrong. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I'm sorry, Lily's mom. I was selfish and greedy. I should have asked nicely or played with my own guitar. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Lily and her mom nodded. They said, "We forgive you, Tommy. But you have to learn to be kind and polite. Sharing is good, but demanding is bad. Do you understand?"
+
+Tommy said, "Yes, I understand. Thank you for teaching me. Can we still be friends?"
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Yes, we can still be friends. And maybe we can play with our guitars together, if we ask nicely and take turns."
+
+Tommy and Lily hugged. They learned a lesson that day. They learned that demanding is not the way to get what you want. They learned that being respectful and friendly is much better.
+Sara and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big slide and ran to it. Sara went first and slid down fast. She was happy and clapped her hands. "That was fun!" she said.
+
+Tom wanted to try too. He climbed up the ladder and reached the top. He saw a knob on the slide. He was curious and turned it. Suddenly, water came out of the slide and made it wet and slippery. Tom was scared and slipped down. He fell on the ground and hurt his knee. He cried and rubbed his knee.
+
+Sara heard Tom cry and ran to him. She saw his knee was red and had a scratch. She felt sorry for him and hugged him. "Are you okay?" she asked.
+
+Tom nodded and sniffed. He looked at the slide and saw the knob. He realized he had turned it and made the water come out. He felt bad and said, "I'm sorry, Sara. I turned the knob and made the slide wet. I was silly and didn't think. I won't do it again."
+
+Sara smiled and said, "It's okay, Tom. I forgive you. You made a mistake, but you learned from it. Next time, be careful and don't touch things you don't know. Come on, let's go to the swings. They are dry and fit for us."
+
+Tom smiled and said, "Thank you, Sara. You are a good friend. Let's go to the swings and have fun." They held hands and walked to the swings. They swung high and low and laughed. They were happy and clapped their hands.
+Tom and Amy are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a ball, a bike and a kite. They have fun together.
+
+One day, they are hungry. They go to the shop with Amy's mom. They see many things to eat. They see bread, cheese, fruit, cake and beef. Amy likes beef. She says to Tom, "Do you want beef? Beef is good. Beef is yummy."
+
+Tom does not like beef. He says to Amy, "No, thank you. I do not want beef. Beef is not good. Beef is yucky."
+
+Amy's mom hears them. She says, "Tom, why do you not like beef? Beef is healthy. Beef makes you strong."
+
+Tom says, "I do not know. I just do not like it. It smells bad. It tastes bad. It makes me sick."
+
+Amy's mom says, "Maybe you have not tried good beef. Maybe you should try some of my beef. I cook it with carrots, potatoes and gravy. It is brilliant. It is the best beef ever."
+
+Tom is not sure. He says, "I do not know. Maybe."
+
+Amy says, "Please, Tom. Try some of my beef. I suggest you try it. Maybe you will like it. Maybe you will change your mind."
+
+Tom thinks. He likes Amy. He likes Amy's mom. He wants to be polite. He says, "OK. I will try some of your beef. But only a little bit."
+
+Amy's mom says, "That's good, Tom. I am proud of you. You are brave. You are a good friend."
+
+She buys some beef and some other things. She takes Tom and Amy home. She cooks the beef with carrots, potatoes and gravy. She gives them a plate each. She says, "Enjoy your meal. Bon appetit."
+
+Tom and Amy say, "Thank you." They start to eat. Tom takes a small bite of the beef. He chews. He swallows. He waits. He does not feel sick. He does not feel bad. He feels good. He feels surprised. He says, "Hey, this beef is not yucky. This beef is good. This beef is yummy."
+
+Amy smiles. She says, "I told you. My beef is brilliant. My beef is the best beef ever."

+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is a big red truck. The truck can make loud noises and move fast.
+
+One day, they find a small book in their dad's room. The book has many pictures and words. The book is about history. History is what happened a long time ago. Tim and Sam are curious. They want to look at the book.
+
+They take the book to their room and open it. They see pictures of people, animals, and places. They try to read the words, but they are too hard. They ask each other what the pictures mean.
+
+"Look, this is a dinosaur," Tim says, pointing to a big green creature. "It was very big and scary. It could eat us."
+
+"Wow, that is cool," Sam says. "But where is it now?"
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it went away. Maybe it is hiding."
+
+They turn the page and see another picture. It is of a man with a long beard and a hat. He is holding a paper and a pen.
+
+"Who is this?" Sam asks.
+
+"I think he is a king," Tim says. "He is writing something important. Maybe he is making a rule."
+
+"What kind of rule?"
+
+"Maybe he is saying that we have to share our toys."
+
+"No, I don't like that rule. I want to keep the truck."
+
+They start to argue. They both want the truck. They pull the truck from each other. They squeeze the truck hard. The truck makes a loud noise and breaks. They are shocked and sad.
+
+They hear their dad coming. They are scared. They hide the book and the truck under the bed. They pretend to be asleep.
+
+Their dad opens the door and sees them. He smiles and says, "Good night, boys. I love you."
+
+He does not see the book or the truck. He does not know what they did. He does not know they learned some history.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play soccer in the park. They have a ball and two goals. They take turns to kick the ball and try to score.
+
+One day, a big boy comes to the park. He has a bike and a hat. He sees Tim and Sam playing soccer. He wants to play too. He says, "Give me the ball. I am better than you. I can score more goals."
+
+Tim and Sam do not like the big boy. He is mean and rude. They say, "No, this is our ball. We are playing. You can not play with us. Go away."
+
+The big boy gets angry. He rides his bike fast and hits the ball with his foot. He kicks the ball far away. He laughs and says, "Ha ha, now you have no ball. You can not play soccer. You are losers."
+
+Tim and Sam are sad and mad. They run after the ball. They see the ball near a pond. The water is clear and blue. They see fish and ducks in the pond. They also see a man with a net. He is fishing.
+
+The man sees Tim and Sam. He sees the ball too. He smiles and says, "Hello, little ones. Are you looking for this?" He holds up the ball with his net. He says, "I found it in the water. It is wet and dirty. Do you want it back?"
+
+Tim and Sam nod and say, "Yes, please. Thank you, sir. That is our ball. A big boy kicked it away. He was mean and rude. He did not let us play soccer."
+
+The man says, "That is not nice. He should not do that. He should share and be kind. Soccer is a fun game. You can play with me if you want. I have another ball in my car. We can make a team and score some goals."
+
+Tim and Sam smile and say, "Yes, please. Thank you, sir. You are nice and kind. We would like to play with you. We can make a team and score some goals."
+
+They go to the car and get the ball. They go back to the park and set up the goals. They play soccer with the man. They have fun and score some goals. They forget about the big boy. They are happy.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play with blocks and cars. One day, they find a big box in the yard. The box is heavy. They want to see what is inside.
+
+They open the box and see many shiny things. They are cells. Cells are things that make phones and toys work. Tom and Sue are happy. They take some cells and put them in their pockets.
+
+"Look, we have cells!" Tom says. "We can make our toys go faster!"
+
+"Yes, we can!" Sue says. "But we have to be careful. Cells are not toys. They can be hot and bad."
+
+They go to their room and try to put the cells in their toys. But the cells do not fit. They are too big or too small. They try to force them in. But the cells break and leak. They make a mess.
+
+"Uh-oh, this is not good!" Tom says. "The cells are broken and dirty. They smell bad. What do we do?"
+
+"We have to wipe them up!" Sue says. "And we have to tell mom and dad. They will be mad, but they will help us. We should not take things that are not ours. We should ask first."
+
+They get some paper and wipe the cells and the toys. They throw the paper and the cells in the trash. They go to mom and dad and tell them what they did. Mom and dad are mad, but they are also glad. They hug Tom and Sue and say:
+
+"Thank you for telling us the truth. You made a mistake, but you learned from it. Cells are not toys. They are dangerous. You have to be careful and respectful. Next time, ask us before you take something. We love you."
+
+Tom and Sue say sorry and hug mom and dad. They feel bad, but they also feel better. They learned a lesson. They will not take cells again. They will play with their blocks and cars. They are friends.
+Lila was a shy girl who liked to play in the woods. She had a friend, a big brown bear, who lived in a cave. Sometimes, they would go for walks and look for berries and nuts.
+
+One day, they found a big log that had fallen from a tree. It was old and soft and had many holes. Lila saw something shiny inside one of the holes. She reached out her hand to touch it.
+
+"Wait, Lila!" the bear said. "That log is rot. It has bugs and worms and bad smell. It can make you sick. Do not touch it!"
+
+Lila pulled back her hand and looked at the bear. She was scared and curious. "What is that shiny thing, then?" she asked.
+
+The bear sniffed the hole and made a face. "It is a metal thing. Maybe someone left it here long ago. It does not rot, but it does not belong here. It is not good for the woods. It can hurt the plants and animals."
+
+Lila nodded. She understood. She did not want to hurt the woods. She loved the woods. She and the bear decided to leave the log alone and look for something else to play with. They found a stream with clear water and smooth stones. They had fun splashing and skipping stones. They forgot about the rot log and the metal thing. They were happy.
+Lily liked to look at the calendar on the wall. It had pictures of animals and flowers and numbers. She liked to count the numbers and find the days that were special. She knew that her birthday was soon, because it had a big star on it.
+
+One day, she saw that her mom had a fancy dress on the bed. It was pink and shiny and had a bow. Lily wanted to try it on. She took it from the bed and put it over her clothes. She felt like a princess. She went to the mirror and twirled around.
+
+But then, her mom came into the room. She saw Lily with the dress and got very angry. She said, "Lily, what are you doing? That's my dress for the party tonight! You can't wear it, you'll ruin it!" She took the dress from Lily and hung it back on the bed.
+
+Lily felt sad and scared. She didn't mean to make her mom mad. She just wanted to look pretty. She started to cry and scream. She said, "I'm sorry, mom, I'm sorry! I just wanted to be like you!"
+
+Her mom heard Lily scream and felt sorry too. She hugged Lily and said, "It's okay, sweetie, I'm not mad at you. I know you like the dress, but it's not for you. It's for grown-ups. You have your own pretty dress for your birthday. Do you want to see it?"
+
+Lily nodded and wiped her tears. Her mom took her to the closet and showed her a dress that was also pink and shiny, but smaller and softer. It had a star on it, just like her birthday. Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, mom, I love it! Can I wear it now?"
+
+Her mom laughed and said, "Not now, silly, it's not your birthday yet. But you can wear it tomorrow, when we have your party. And you can invite your friends and have cake and balloons and games. How does that sound?"

+Lila liked to play on the beach. She liked to make sand castles and look for shells. One day, she found a big shell that was shiny and pink. She picked it up and saw a tiny crab inside. The crab was scared and tried to hide.
+
+Lila wanted to keep the shell, but she also wanted to help the crab. She remembered what her mom had told her: some animals live in shells and need them to be safe. She decided to rescue the crab and put the shell back in the water.
+
+She walked to the edge of the sea and gently placed the shell on a rock. The crab peeked out and waved its claws at her. Lila smiled and waved back. She felt happy that she had done a good thing.

+
+Lily and Ben shook their heads. They did not have any money. They only had their toys. The man saw their toys and said, "Oh, what adorable toys you have. I can trade you some jewels for your toys. How about that?"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at their toys. They loved their toys, but they also wanted some jewels. They thought they could have both. They nodded and gave their toys to the man. The man gave them some jewels and said, "Thank you, little ones. You have made a good deal. Enjoy your jewels."
+
+Lily and Ben put on their jewels and felt very happy. They looked at each other and smiled. They thought they were very lucky. They did not see the man run away with their toys. He went to the east, where he could sell them for a lot of money. He did not care about Lily and Ben. He was a bad man.
+
+Lily and Ben played with their jewels for a while. But soon they got bored. They missed their toys. They wanted to play with their doll and their car. They realized they had made a mistake.

+
+Ben says, "It looks good. Can I stir too?" He reaches for the spoon. But Lila does not hear him. She is deaf. She can only see and feel. She does not know Ben wants to stir. She keeps stirring.
+
+Ben is sad. He wants to help. He taps Lila on the shoulder. He points to the spoon. He makes a stirring motion with his hand. He smiles.
+
+Lila sees Ben. She understands. She smiles too. She gives him the spoon. He stirs the mix. They take turns stirring. They are happy.

+But Ben wanted to stay. He liked to play in the mud. He said, "No, I want to play more."
+
+Lily was sad. She did not like to play in the mud. She did not like the dark clouds. She said, "Please, Ben, come with me."
+
+But Ben did not listen. He ran away from Lily. He ran to the big tree. He climbed on the tree. He said, "Look at me, I am high."
+
+Lily was scared. She saw a flash of light. She heard a loud noise. It was thunder. It was very loud. It made Lily cry.
+
+"Ben, Ben, come down!" Lily yelled. "It is thunder, it is bad!"
+
+But Ben did not hear her. He was too high. He was too wild. He liked the thunder. He said, "Wow, it is cool."
+
+Lily ran to the house. She wanted to find Mom. She wanted to be safe. She did not like the thunder. She did not like Ben. She was mad at him.
+
+But then she heard another noise. It was Ben. He was yelling. He was scared. He said, "Help, help, I want to come down!"

+Lily felt sorry for him too. She ran back to the tree. She said, "Don't worry, Ben, I will help you."

+
+Mom said okay, but she warned them that the movie might be scary. She said the dragon was not real, just pretend. She said the girl was brave and smart, and she would not let the dragon hurt her. She said they could stop the movie if they felt too scared.
+

+
+He started to wobble. He started to panic. He started to scream. He crashed into the trash cans. He fell off the bike. He got dirty and bruised. He heard Lily's voice.

+
+Tim and Mia nodded. They broke the bread into small pieces and walked to the edge of the pond. They saw a big duck with a green head and a yellow beak. He looked hungry.

+
+Mom and dad were not happy, but they were glad that Lily and Ben were not hurt. They told them to never play with the honey jar again. They also told them to be kind to the bees, because they make the honey.
+
+They cleaned up the mess and gave Lily and Ben a hug. They also gave them an orange to eat, because it was healthy and sweet.
+
+Lily and Ben ate the orange and thanked mom and dad. They said they would not be greedy and naughty again. They also said they would respect the bees and their work.
+
+The end.
+Lily was a little frog who liked to hop and play in the pond. She had many friends, like Sam the fish and Tim the turtle. They had fun swimming and splashing in the water. But Lily's mom always told her to be careful and not go too far from the pond. She said there were dangerous things in the forest, like big snakes and sharp claws.
+
+One day, Lily was feeling very curious and bored. She wanted to see what was in the forest. She told Sam and Tim that she was going to rest on a big leaf and hopped away. She did not rest on the leaf, but kept hopping until she reached the edge of the pond. She saw many green trees and colorful flowers. She thought they looked very pretty and wanted to explore.
+
+She hopped into the forest, looking at the different plants and animals. She saw a butterfly and followed it. She saw a mushroom and smelled it. She saw a berry and tasted it. She did not see the big snake that was hiding behind a log. The snake saw Lily and licked its tongue. It thought she looked very tasty and wanted to eat her.
+
+The snake slithered out of the log and moved towards Lily. Lily did not hear the snake or see its shadow. She was too busy having fun. The snake opened its mouth and was about to bite Lily, when she heard a loud roar. She turned around and saw a big bear standing behind her. The bear had seen the snake and wanted to protect Lily. It scared the snake away with its roar and claws.
+
+Lily was very frightened and realized she was in danger. She thanked the bear for saving her and quickly hopped back to the pond. She found Sam and Tim and told them what happened. They were very glad that she was safe and hugged her. Lily's mom came and asked her where she had been. Lily told her the truth and said she was sorry. Lily's mom was angry but also relieved. She said she loved Lily and wanted her to be careful. She said the forest was dangerous and not a place for little frogs. Lily said she understood and promised to never go there again. She said she was happy to be in the pond with her friends and family. She learned her lesson and never forgot the bear who helped her.
+Sam and Ben were friends who liked to play. One day, they saw a big building with a sign that said "Lab". They were curious and wanted to see what was inside.
+
+They sneaked past the gate and found a door that was open. They went in and saw many machines and tubes and lights. They also saw some animals in cages. They felt sorry for the animals and wanted to help them.
+
+They saw a button that said "Free". They thought that meant the animals would be free if they pushed it. They did not know that the button was for a test that the lab people were doing. The button made a loud noise and a red light flashed.
+
+The lab people heard the noise and came running. They saw Sam and Ben and were angry. They asked them what they were doing there and why they pushed the button.
+
+Sam and Ben were scared and tried to run away. But one of the animals, a monkey, was loose and jumped on them. The monkey was angry too and poked them with his fingers. He poked them hard and made them cry.
+
+The lab people caught the monkey and put him back in his cage. They also called Sam and Ben's parents and told them what happened. Sam and Ben's parents were very upset and scolded them for being foolish and naughty.
+
+Sam and Ben learned a lesson that day. They learned that they should not go to places where they are not allowed and that they should not touch things that they do not understand. They also learned that they should be kind to animals and not make them angry. They said sorry to the lab people and the animals and promised to never do it again.
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play outside. They had a red wagon that they used to carry their toys and books. One day, they decided to go to the park with their wagon. They put on their jackets and zipped them up.
+
+"Are you ready, Max?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, let's go!" Max said.
+
+They pulled their wagon along the sidewalk, but it was hard to move. The wheels were stuck and made a loud noise. Lily and Max stopped and looked at their wagon.
+
+"Oh no, what's wrong with our wagon?" Lily said.
+
+"It's too heavy, Lily. We have too many things in it," Max said.
+
+They looked at their wagon and saw that it was full of stuff. They had stuffed animals, balls, books, puzzles, and more. They had taken everything they liked from their room.
+
+"We don't need all these things, Lily. We can have fun with just a few," Max said.
+
+"You're right, Max. Let's take some things out and leave them at home," Lily said.
+
+They took out some of the things they didn't need and put them back in their room. They only kept a few things that they really wanted to play with. They zipped up their jackets again and pulled their wagon. It was much easier to move and didn't make a loud noise.
+
+They went to the park and had a lot of fun with their wagon and their toys. They shared them with other kids and made new friends. They learned that they didn't need to have everything to be happy. They only needed to have what they really liked and what they could share.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and hide and chase each other. Tom had a purple ball that he threw very far. Lily ran after it, but she could not catch it. The ball rolled under a big gate that led to a dark forest.
+
+"Tom, I can't get the ball!" Lily shouted. "It's under the gate!"
+
+Tom ran to the gate and looked under it. He saw the ball, but he also saw something else. It was a big, black dog with sharp teeth and red eyes. The dog growled and barked at Tom and Lily.
+
+"Tom, I'm scared!" Lily said. "What do we do?"
+
+Tom thought for a moment. He did not want to lose his purple ball, but he also did not want to get hurt by the dog. He had an idea.
+
+"Hey, dog!" Tom yelled. "Do you want to play with us? We have a purple ball. It's very fun. You can have it if you want."
+
+The dog stopped growling and barking. It looked at the purple ball with interest. It wagged its tail and licked its lips.
+
+"Really?" the dog asked. "You will give me the purple ball?"
+
+"Yes, yes, we will!" Tom said. "But you have to be nice to us. You can't bite us or chase us. You have to be our friend."
+
+The dog thought for a moment. It liked the purple ball, but it also liked to bite and chase. It was a hard choice. But then it decided.
+
+"OK, OK, I will be your friend," the dog said. "But only if you give me the purple ball. And you have to play with me sometimes. Deal?"
+
+"Deal!" Tom and Lily said. They pushed the purple ball under the gate to the dog. The dog grabbed it with its mouth and wagged its tail. It was very happy.
+
+Tom and Lily smiled. They had made a new friend. And they had learned a new word: surrender.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They live on a farm with their mom and dad. They like to play with the animals and help with the chores.
+
+One day, they see a big truck near the barn. The truck has a sign that says "Animal Rescue". Sara and Ben are curious. They run to the truck and peek inside.
+
+"Wow, look at all the animals!" Sara says. She sees dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds. They are in cages and look sad.
+
+"Who are they?" Ben asks. He sees a small mouse in a corner. He reaches out to touch it.
+
+"Stop!" a voice says. It is a man who works for the animal rescue. He is wearing a blue shirt and a hat. He looks angry.
+
+"These animals are not for you. They are sick or hurt or lost. We are taking them to a safe place where they can get better. You should not bother them."
+
+Sara and Ben feel scared. They did not mean to bother the animals. They just wanted to see them and be nice.
+
+"We are sorry, sir," Sara says. "We like animals. We have animals on our farm. We take good care of them."
+
+The man softens his voice. He sees that Sara and Ben are not bad kids. They are just curious.
+
+"I see. Well, maybe you can help me then. Do you want to help me?"
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They want to help.
+
+"OK, then. You can help me by giving these animals some water and food. And you can talk to them and pet them gently. But do not squeeze them. They are fragile and need space. Can you do that?"
+
+Sara and Ben smile. They can do that. They take some bowls and fill them with water and food. They go to each cage and give the animals what they need. They talk to them and pet them gently. They do not squeeze them.
+
+The animals perk up. They drink and eat and make noises. They look at Sara and Ben with gratitude. They feel less sad and scared.
+
+Sara and Ben feel happy. They are helping the animals. They are making new friends.
+
+The man watches them and smiles. He is glad that Sara and Ben are kind and gentle. He is not angry anymore. He is proud of them.
+
+"Thank you, Sara and Ben," he says. "You are very good helpers. You are very good with animals. Maybe one day you can work for the animal rescue too. Would you like that?"
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They would like that. They hug the man and say goodbye to the animals. They run back to their mom and dad, who are waiting for them. They tell them what they did and what they learned.
+
+Mom and dad are happy. They are not worried anymore. They are proud of Sara and Ben too. They hug them and kiss them and say they love them.
+
+Sara and Ben are happy. They love their mom and dad. They love their farm. They love their animals. And they love each other.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a cat in the park. The cat is black and white. It has a bell on its neck.
+
+"Look, a cat!" Sara says. She runs to the cat. She wants to pet it.
+
+"Wait, Sara!" Tom says. He is afraid of cats. He thinks they are mean. He stays behind.
+
+Sara reaches the cat. The cat is nice. It rubs its head on Sara's hand. It purrs. Sara smiles. She likes the cat.
+
+"Tom, come here!" Sara says. "The cat is nice. It is not mean. It likes me. You can pet it too."
+
+Tom is not sure. He walks slowly to Sara and the cat. He sees the cat is nice. It does not scratch or bite. It looks at Tom with big eyes.
+
+"Hello, cat," Tom says. He touches the cat's fur. It is soft. He feels the cat's bell. It jingles.
+
+The cat likes Tom too. It rubs its head on Tom's hand. It purrs. Tom smiles. He likes the cat.
+
+Sara and Tom are happy. They have a new friend. The cat is happy too. It has two new friends. They play in the park. They have fun.
+Sam and Lily liked to play on the beach. They had a toy yacht that they sailed on the water. The yacht was bright and shiny, and it had a red flag and a blue sail. Sam and Lily pretended they were pirates and explorers, and they had many adventures with their yacht.
+
+One day, they saw a big wave coming. It was bigger than any wave they had ever seen. It was loud and scary, and it looked like it would swallow their yacht. Sam and Lily were afraid. They wanted to save their yacht, but they did not know how.
+
+"Quick, Lily, grab the yacht!" Sam shouted.
+
+"I can't, Sam, it's too far!" Lily cried.
+
+They ran towards the water, but it was too late. The big wave crashed on the shore, and took their yacht with it. Sam and Lily watched as their bright and shiny yacht disappeared in the foam. They felt sad and angry. They had lost their favorite toy.
+
+They looked at each other, and then at the empty water. They did not want to play on the beach anymore. They wanted their yacht back. But they knew they would never see it again. The big wave had ruined their fun. They wished they had stayed away from the water. They wished they had listened to their mom, who had warned them about the big wave. But they had not listened. And now they had nothing.
+Tom and Mia like to play with cards. They have many cards with pictures of animals. They try to find two cards that have the same animal. They call this game "match".
+
+One day, they find a new card in the box. It has a picture of a big, fat shark. It has sharp teeth and a fin. Tom and Mia have never seen a shark before. They wonder what it is.
+
+"Look at this card!" Tom says. "What is this animal?"
+
+"I don't know," Mia says. "It looks scary. Maybe it is a fish."
+
+"But it is too big and fat to be a fish," Tom says. "And it has teeth. Fish don't have teeth."
+
+"Maybe it is a monster," Mia says. "Maybe it lives in the dark water and eats other animals."
+
+Tom and Mia are afraid of the shark card. They don't want to match it with another card. They hide it under the sofa and play with the other cards.
+
+But then, Mom comes in and sees the card. She picks it up and smiles.
+
+"Hey, kids, do you know what this is?" she asks.
+
+Tom and Mia shake their heads.
+
+"This is a shark," Mom says. "It is a kind of fish, but it is very big and strong. It lives in the ocean and eats other fish. But it is not a monster. It is just an animal."
+
+Mom shows them a book with pictures of sharks. She tells them more about sharks. She says they are very smart and fast. She says some sharks are friendly and some are not. She says people should respect sharks and not hurt them.
+
+Tom and Mia listen to Mom. They learn more about sharks. They are not afraid of the shark card anymore. They think it is cool and interesting. They want to match it with another shark card.
+
+"Can we have another shark card, Mom?" they ask.
+
+"Sure," Mom says. "Let me see if I can find one in the box."
+Ben and Lily were playing with blocks in the living room. They liked to build towers and houses with the blocks. They had many colors and shapes of blocks.
+
+Lily saw a big blue block that she wanted. It was on top of Ben's tower. She reached for it and tried to lift it. But the tower was too tall and wobbly. It fell down with a loud crash. The blocks scattered everywhere.
+
+"Hey!" Ben shouted. "That was mine! You made my tower fall! That was terrible!"
+
+Lily felt sorry. She did not mean to make Ben's tower fall. She just wanted the blue block. She looked at Ben and said, "I'm sorry, Ben. I didn't know your tower would fall. Can we share the blue block?"
+
+Ben was still angry. He liked his tower. He worked hard to make it. He did not want to share the blue block. He said, "No, you can't have the blue block. It's mine. Go away!"
+
+Lily felt sad. She liked Ben. She wanted to play with him. She did not want to go away. She said, "Please, Ben. Don't be mad. Can we be friends? Can we build a new tower together?"
+
+Ben looked at Lily. He saw her sad face. He remembered that he liked Lily. He did not want to make her sad. He said, "Okay, Lily. I'm sorry, too. I was mean. We can be friends. We can build a new tower together. And we can share the blue block."
+
+Lily smiled. She was happy. She hugged Ben and said, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. I like you."
+
+They picked up the blocks and started to build a new tower. They used the blue block in the middle. They made the tower bigger and stronger. They had fun playing with the blocks. They were happy.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with toys and watch TV. One day, they go to Mia's house after school. Mia's mom says they can watch TV for a little while, but they have to do their homework later.
+
+Tom and Mia sit on the couch and turn on the TV. They see a funny show with animals and people. They laugh and clap. They forget about their homework. They forget about the time.
+
+Mia's mom comes back to the living room. She sees Tom and Mia still watching TV. She is not happy. She says, "Tom and Mia, you have to turn off the TV now. You have to do your homework. You have been watching TV for too long."
+
+Tom and Mia say, "But mom, we like this show. It is funny and warm. Can we watch a little more?"
+
+Mia's mom says, "No, you can't. You have to learn and do your work. TV is not good for you all the time. Come on, get up and go to the table."
+
+Tom and Mia are sad. They don't want to leave the TV. They want to watch more. Mia's mom goes to the TV and pulls the cable. The TV goes off. Tom and Mia say, "Oh no!"
+
+Mia's mom says, "Don't worry, you can watch TV again another day. But now, you have to do your homework. It is important. Come on, I will help you."
+
+Tom and Mia get up and go to the table. They take out their books and pencils. They do their homework. They learn new things. They feel smart and proud. They don't forget anymore.
+Mira and Sam are friends. They like to play together. One day, they decide to have a tea party. They find some cheap cups and plates in the garage. They fill them with water and pretend it is tea.
+
+"Would you like some tea, Sam?" Mira asks.
+
+"Yes, please, Mira. Thank you," Sam says.
+
+They sip their water and make polite noises. They feel very grown-up.
+
+But then, Mira's dog, Rex, comes running. He is dirty and wet. He jumps on the table and knocks over the cups and plates. The water spills everywhere. Mira and Sam scream.
+
+"Rex, no! Bad dog!" Mira shouts.
+
+"Go away, Rex! You ruined our tea party!" Sam cries.
+
+Rex barks and wags his tail. He thinks they are playing. He licks their faces and tries to grab their clothes.
+
+Mira's mom hears the noise and comes outside. She sees the mess and the wet children.
+
+"Oh, dear. What happened here?" she asks.
+
+"Rex happened, Mom. He is a naughty dog. He needs a bath," Mira says.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mira. I'm sorry, Sam. Rex was supposed to stay in the yard. He must have escaped. Come on, Rex. Let's go bathe you," Mira's mom says.
+
+She takes Rex inside and turns on the faucet. Rex hates baths. He whines and tries to run away.
+
+Mira and Sam watch from the window. They giggle.
+
+"Maybe we can have another tea party later," Mira says.
+
+"Maybe. But next time, let's keep Rex away," Sam says.
+
+They agree and hug. They are still friends.
+One day, Tom and Lily went to the park with their elderly grandma. They saw a man with a big box. He was selling worms to people who wanted to go fishing.
+
+"Can we buy some worms, grandma?" Tom asked. He liked to look at the worms and make them wiggle.
+
+"Sorry, Tom, we don't have enough money for worms today," grandma said. "Maybe another time."
+
+Lily had an idea. She whispered to Tom, "Let's find our own worms and sell them to the man. Then we can buy some candy."
+
+Tom liked the idea. He and Lily looked for worms in the grass and the dirt. They found many worms of different sizes and colors. They put them in a paper cup.
+
+They went to the man with the big box. "Hello, sir, do you want to buy some worms?" Lily asked.
+
+The man looked at their cup. He smiled. "How much do you want for your worms?" he asked.
+
+"Two pennies for each worm," Lily said.
+
+The man counted the worms. There were ten worms in the cup. He gave Lily and Tom twenty pennies. "Thank you for your worms. They are very nice and fresh," he said.
+
+Lily and Tom were happy. They thanked the man and ran to the candy store. They bought some candy and shared it with their grandma. They had a fun day at the park.
+Sara likes to write. She writes with her crayons on paper. She writes her name, her friends' names, and things she sees. She writes every day.
+
+One day, Sara finds a big star sticker in her drawer. She thinks it is pretty and shiny. She puts it on her paper. She writes under the sticker: "I wish for a puppy".
+
+She shows her paper to her mom. "Look, mom, I write a wish. Can I have a puppy, please?"
+
+Mom smiles and hugs Sara. "You write very well, Sara. But a puppy is a big wish. Puppies need a lot of care and love. We don't have enough space and time for a puppy right now. Maybe when you are older, we can think about it."
+
+Sara feels sad. She loves puppies. She wants to play with them and cuddle them. She says, "OK, mom, I understand. But can I keep my paper with my wish?"
+
+Mom says, "Of course, you can. You can put it in your special box. Maybe someday, your wish will come true."
+
+Sara nods and puts her paper in her special box. She hopes that her wish will reach the unknown place where wishes go. She hopes that someone will hear her wish and send her a puppy. She hopes that she will be happy.
+Tom and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park and share their toys. One day, they saw a big slide in the park. It was very high and shiny. Tom wanted to go on the slide, but Lily was scared.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's go on the slide. It will be fun!" Tom said.
+
+"No, Tom, it is too high. I don't want to go. You go if you want." Lily said.
+
+Tom thought Lily was silly. He wanted to show her that he was brave and mighty. He ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. He looked down and saw Lily watching him. He smiled and waved. Then he slid down very fast.
+
+But Tom did not see the big rock at the end of the slide. He hit the rock with his head and fell to the ground. He cried out loud. He felt a lot of pain. He wished he had listened to Lily.
+
+Lily ran to Tom and hugged him. She was very worried. She called for help. A nice lady came and took them to the nurse. The nurse put a bandage on Tom's head and gave him a lollipop. She told him to be careful next time.
+
+Tom said sorry to Lily. He regretted going on the slide. He learned a lesson. He realized that Lily had more wisdom than him. He thanked her for being his friend. Lily forgave him and smiled. They held hands and went back to the park. They decided to play on the swings instead. They were happy again.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were kings and queens in a big palace. They used sticks and stones and leaves to make their palace. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, a big boy came. He was mean and rude. He kicked their palace and broke it. He laughed and said, "Your palace is silly and ugly. You are not kings and queens. You are babies."
+
+Tom and Lily were very sad and angry. They yelled at the big boy. "Go away! You are mean and rude. You broke our palace. You are not nice. You are sour."
+
+The big boy did not like to be yelled at. He got mad and tried to hit Tom and Lily. But then, a grown-up came. She was Tom and Lily's mom. She saw what was happening and stopped the big boy. She said, "What are you doing? You are not allowed to hurt other children. You are not allowed to break their things. You need to say sorry and go home."
+
+The big boy was scared of the grown-up. He said sorry in a small voice and ran away. Tom and Lily's mom hugged them and said, "Are you okay? I'm sorry that happened. You can make another palace if you want. You are very creative and brave. I'm proud of you."
+
+Tom and Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. We love you. We will make another palace. We are still kings and queens." They hugged their mom and went back to playing. They were happy again.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They saw a big house with a red door and a shiny bell. They wondered who lived there.
+
+"Let's ring the bell and see who comes out," Tom said. He was brave and curious.
+
+"No, don't do that. It's rude and scary. What if they are angry or mean?" Lily said. She was shy and careful.
+
+"I dare you to ring the bell. I dare you, I dare you!" Tom said. He wanted to have fun and make Lily laugh.
+
+"Fine, I'll do it. But you have to come with me." Lily said. She didn't want to be alone and afraid.
+
+They walked to the house and reached for the bell. They pressed it and heard a loud ding-dong. They waited and looked around. They heard footsteps and saw the door open. They saw a friendly lady with a big smile and a basket of cookies.
+
+"Hello, children. Are you looking for someone?" The lady said. She was kind and sweet.
+
+"Um, no. We were just playing and we wanted to see who lived here." Tom said. He felt a little silly and sorry.
+
+"Well, I'm glad you came. I live here alone and I love visitors. Would you like some cookies?" The lady said. She held out the basket and invited them in.
+
+"Yes, please. Thank you. You are very nice." Lily said. She felt happy and hungry.
+
+They followed the lady into the house and sat on the couch. They ate cookies and talked. They learned that the lady's name was Mrs. Brown and that she liked to bake, read and garden. They told her their names and that they liked to play, draw and sing. They became friends and had a good time.
+
+They forgot about the bell and the dare. They learned that sometimes, ringing a bell can lead to a friendly surprise.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play with blocks. They build towers, houses, bridges and other objects. They have fun and share their blocks.
+
+One day, Tom wants to build a big castle. He needs many blocks. He sees Anna's blocks and takes some without asking. Anna is sad and angry. She says, "Tom, those are my blocks! Give them back!"
+
+Tom says, "No, I need them for my castle. It will be the best object ever. Go away!"
+
+Anna cries and runs to her mom. Her mom hugs her and says, "Don't worry, Anna. Tom is not being nice. He should not take your blocks. Maybe he will learn to share soon."
+
+Tom keeps building his castle. He is proud of his work. He thinks he will complete it soon. But then, he hears a loud noise. He turns around and sees a big dog. The dog likes to play with blocks too. The dog runs to Tom's castle and knocks it down. The blocks fall everywhere. Tom is shocked and sad. He says, "No, my castle! It was my best object ever. Go away, dog!"
+
+The dog barks and wags his tail. He thinks Tom wants to play. He picks up a block and brings it to Tom. He drops it on Tom's lap. He licks Tom's face. The dog is sweet and friendly. He wants to share his block.
+
+Tom feels the dog's tongue and the block. He realizes he was wrong. He says, "I'm sorry, dog. You are nice. You want to share. I was not nice. I did not share with Anna. I took her blocks. I should give them back."
+
+Tom gets up and gathers the blocks. He finds Anna and her mom. He says, "Anna, I'm sorry. I took your blocks. Here they are. Can we share and play together?"
+
+Anna smiles and says, "Yes, Tom. Thank you. I forgive you. Let's share and play together."
+
+Tom and Anna hug. They play with the blocks and the dog. They build objects together. They have fun and learn to share.
+
+The moral of the story is: Sharing is caring. Don't take what is not yours. Be nice to others and animals.
+Tom and Sue like to play with their toy boat. They take it to the pond and sail it on the water. They have fun watching it go fast and slow, left and right.
+
+One day, they see a big duck on the pond. The duck looks hungry and curious. It swims towards their boat and quacks loudly.
+
+"Go away, duck!" Tom shouts. "This is our boat, not your food!"
+
+But the duck does not listen. It reaches the boat with its beak and bites it. The boat makes a loud pop and starts to sink.
+
+"Oh no!" Sue cries. "Our boat is in trouble! It has a hole and it is going down!"
+
+Tom and Sue run to the edge of the pond and try to save their boat. But they are too late. The duck grabs the boat with its beak and swallows it whole.
+
+"Mmm, tasty!" the duck says. "Thank you for the snack, kids!"
+
+Tom and Sue are very sad and angry. They have lost their boat and their fun. They go home and tell their mom what happened. But she does not believe them. She thinks they are making up stories.
+
+"You are naughty, Tom and Sue!" she says. "You did not take care of your boat and you lost it. Now you have no boat and no dessert. Go to your room and think about what you did!"
+
+Tom and Sue go to their room and cry. They wish they had never seen the duck. They wish they had a new boat. They wish they had a happy ending. But they do not. They have a bad ending.
+Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play together at the park. One day, Ben has an invitation in his hand. He is very happy.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have an invitation!" Ben says. "It is for Tom's birthday party. He is my other friend. He likes soccer. Do you want to come with me?"
+
+Lily looks at the invitation. It has a picture of a soccer ball and a cake. She likes cake. She nods and smiles.
+
+"Yes, Ben, I want to come with you. It sounds fun. I like soccer too. Can I kick the ball with you and Tom?"
+
+Ben nods and smiles too.
+
+"Of course, Lily, you can kick the ball with us. It is easy. You just have to run and hit the ball with your foot. Like this." Ben shows Lily how to kick the ball. He kicks it very hard and it flies in the air.
+
+Lily claps and laughs.
+
+"Wow, Ben, you are very good at kicking. Let me try." Lily runs and kicks the ball too. She kicks it very softly and it rolls on the ground.
+
+Ben claps and laughs too.
+
+"Good try, Lily. You are getting better. Let's practice more. Then we can go to Tom's party and have cake and play soccer with him. It will be fun."
+
+Ben and Lily practice kicking the ball until it is time to go to the party. They are very excited. They hold hands and walk to Tom's house. They knock on the door and say hello to Tom. He is very happy to see them. He gives them each a hat and a balloon. He takes them to the backyard where there is a big soccer field and a big cake. They have fun.
+Lily and Ben were playing outside. They liked to balance on the big log in the yard. They pretended it was a bridge over a river. Sometimes they fell off and laughed.
+
+But today the sky was dark and angry. It made loud noises and flashed blue lightning. Lily and Ben were scared. They ran to the house.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, it's scary outside!" they cried.
+
+Mommy hugged them and said, "Don't worry, my loves. It's just a storm. It will go away soon. Let's go inside and have some cookies."
+
+They went inside and sat on the couch. Mommy gave them cookies and milk. They watched the storm through the window. The lightning was still blue, but it was not so scary now. It was like a big show.
+
+"Look, Lily, look!" Ben said. "The lightning made a shape. It looks like a log!"
+
+Lily looked and saw it too. It was a blue log in the sky. It looked like the one they played on.
+
+"Wow, Ben, you're right!" Lily said. "Maybe the lightning is playing too. Maybe it wants to balance on the log like us."
+
+They smiled and ate their cookies. They were not scared anymore. They were happy. They hoped the lightning would come back and play with them again.
+Lily and Sam were playing with their dolls in the living room. They liked to pretend that they were grown-ups and had a big house and a car. They also had a small table with two cups and a bottle of wine.
+
+"Let's have a party, Sam," Lily said. "We can invite our friends and drink wine and eat cake."
+
+"OK, Lily," Sam said. "But we have to be careful with the wine. Mommy and Daddy said it is not for kids. It is only for grown-ups."
+
+Lily nodded. She knew that wine was not for kids, but she wanted to try it. She thought it looked fine and smelled good. She opened the bottle and poured some wine into her cup. She took a sip and made a face.
+
+"Yuck, Sam, this wine is not fine. It is sour and bitter. It makes my mouth hurt. Why do grown-ups like it?"
+
+Sam shrugged. He did not want to try the wine. He liked juice and milk better. He saw that Lily was unhappy and had an idea.
+
+"Maybe we can change the wine, Lily. Maybe we can make it sweet and yummy. Do you want to try?"
+
+Lily nodded. She wanted to change the wine. She did not like it at all. She followed Sam to the kitchen. They looked for something to make the wine better. They found some sugar, some honey, some syrup, and some sprinkles. They took them all and went back to the living room.
+
+They added some sugar, some honey, some syrup, and some sprinkles to the wine. They stirred it with a spoon. They looked at the wine. It was not fine anymore. It was pink and sparkly and sticky. It looked like candy.
+
+"Wow, Sam, we changed the wine. It looks so pretty. Do you think it tastes good?"
+
+Sam nodded. He wanted to taste the wine. He thought it looked good. He took a sip and smiled.
+
+"Mmm, Lily, this wine is good. It is sweet and yummy. It makes my mouth happy. We made the best wine ever."
+
+Lily smiled too. She took a sip and agreed.
+
+"Yes, Sam, we made the best wine ever. We are the best party makers ever. Let's drink more wine and play more dolls."
+
+They drank more wine and played more dolls. They had a lot of fun. They did not know that Mommy and Daddy were watching them from the door. They did not know that Mommy and Daddy were not happy. They did not know that Mommy and Daddy were going to change their wine too.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play in the garden. They have a line of seeds that they plant with Mom. They water the seeds every day and wait for them to grow.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily see a big sunflower in the line. They are very happy. They run to the sunflower and hug it. "Look, Mom, our seed grew!" they shout. Mom smiles and takes a picture of them.
+
+But the next day, the sunflower is dead. It is brown and dry and sad. Tom and Lily are very sad too. They cry and ask Mom why the sunflower died. Mom hugs them and says, "Sometimes, things die, my loves. It is part of life. But we can remember the sunflower and how happy it made us. And we can plant more seeds and see what else grows."
+
+Tom and Lily wipe their tears and nod. They go to the line and pick a new seed. They plant it in the ground and water it. They hope it will grow and be alive. They say, "Goodbye, sunflower. Thank you for growing. We love you."
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play a lot. They had many toys and games in their room. But they also had a big clock on the wall that told them when to wake up, eat, and sleep. The clock made a loud sound every hour, like "ding dong, ding dong".
+
+One day, Tom and Lily were bored and wanted to have some fun. They saw the clock and had an idea. They climbed on a chair and reached the clock. They opened the back of the clock and saw many small parts inside. They thought they could make the clock do funny things, like make different sounds or go faster or slower.
+
+They took out some parts and put them in different places. They giggled and said, "Now the clock will be silly and surprise us". They closed the back of the clock and waited for the next hour.
+
+But when the clock was supposed to make a sound, it did not. It was silent and still. Tom and Lily looked at the clock and saw that the hands were not moving. The clock was broken. They felt sad and scared. They had disturbed the clock and made it stop working.
+
+They heard their mom coming to their room. They knew they were in trouble. They hid under the bed and hoped their mom would not notice the clock. But their mom saw the clock and knew something was wrong. She opened the back of the clock and saw the mess inside. She was angry and disappointed. She said, "Who did this to the clock? Why did you disturb the clock? The clock was important and useful. It helped us know the time and follow our routine. Now we have to fix it or buy a new one. That is not nice or smart. You should respect and take care of the things you have, not ruin them for fun".
+
+Tom and Lily felt ashamed and sorry. They came out from under the bed and said, "We did it, mom. We are sorry. We wanted to have fun, but we did not think about the consequences. We did not mean to disturb the clock. We did not know it would break. We will help you fix it or buy a new one. We will not do it again. We will respect and take care of the things we have, not ruin them for fun".
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "I forgive you, but you have to learn from your mistake. The clock is not a toy, it is a tool. You have to use it properly and not disturb it. You have to be careful and responsible with the things you have, not ruin them for fun. You have to appreciate and value the things you have, not take them for granted. That is the moral of this story".
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and said, "We understand, mom. We will do better next time. We love you and we love the clock". They helped their mom fix the clock and put it back on the wall. They looked at the clock and saw that it was working again. It made a sound, like "ding dong, ding dong". They smiled and said, "Thank you, clock. We are sorry we disturbed you. We will not do it again. We will respect and take care of you. You are important and useful. You are our friend". The clock seemed to smile back and said, "You are welcome, Tom and Lily. I forgive you. I am glad you learned your lesson. You are smart and kind. You are my friends". The clock was happy and so were Tom and Lily. They hugged each other and their mom and went to play with their toys and games. They did not disturb the clock anymore. They lived happily ever after. The end.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big dog. The dog is friendly. He wags his tail and licks their faces.
+
+"Hi, doggy!" Lily says. "What is your name?"
+
+The dog barks. He wants to play. He runs and jumps. Lily and Ben chase him. They have fun.
+
+But then, the dog sees a squirrel. He runs after the squirrel. He wants to bite it. The squirrel is fast. It climbs a tree.
+
+"Come back, doggy!" Ben calls. "Don't bite the squirrel!"
+
+The dog stops. He looks at Ben. He tilts his head. He does not understand.
+
+The squirrel chatters. It is angry. It throws a nut at the dog. The nut hits the dog's nose. The dog yelps.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" the dog cries. "That hurts!"
+
+Lily and Ben run to the dog. They hug him. They say sorry.
+
+"It's okay, doggy," Lily says. "The squirrel is scared. He does not want to be your friend."
+
+The dog sniffs. He licks their faces again. He is happy.
+
+"Let's go, doggy," Ben says. "Let's find another game."
+
+They walk away. They see a slide. They smile. They have more fun.
+Lila and Ben were playing outside with their rope. They liked to swing the rope and jump over it. They also liked to make shapes with the rope on the ground.
+
+But then the sky became dark and gray. Lila and Ben heard a loud noise. It was thunder. They saw a flash of light. It was lightning. They felt drops of water on their faces. It was rain.
+
+"Let's go inside!" Lila said. "The rain is wet and cold. And the thunder and lightning are scary."
+
+But Ben did not want to go inside. He was ignorant. He did not know that the rain and the thunder and the lightning could be dangerous. He wanted to keep playing with the rope.
+
+"No, I want to stay here!" Ben said. "The rain is fun and the thunder and the lightning are pretty. And I like the rope. It is my rope."
+
+Lila tried to pull Ben by the hand. But Ben did not move. He held the rope tightly. He did not listen to Lila. He was stubborn.
+
+"Please, Ben, come with me!" Lila said. "The rain is getting stronger and the thunder and the lightning are getting closer. And the rope is not safe. It can attract the lightning. It can hurt you."
+
+But Ben did not care. He was foolish. He did not believe Lila. He thought she was lying. He wanted to prove her wrong.
+
+"Ha, ha, you are silly!" Ben said. "The rain is not strong and the thunder and the lightning are not close. And the rope is not dangerous. It is my friend. See, I can swing it and jump over it and make shapes with it. Nothing can happen to me."
+
+But then something did happen to Ben. A big flash of light hit the rope. It was lightning. It made a loud noise. It was thunder. It burned the rope. It shocked Ben. It made him fall to the ground.
+
+Lila screamed. She ran to Ben. She was scared. She was sad. She was sorry.
+
+"Ben, Ben, are you okay?" Lila said. "I told you to come with me. I told you the rain and the thunder and the lightning and the rope were bad. Why didn't you listen to me?"
+
+Ben opened his eyes. He was hurt. He was wet. He was cold. He was sorry.
+
+"Lila, Lila, I'm sorry," Ben said. "You were right and I was wrong. I was ignorant and stubborn and foolish. I should have listened to you. I should have gone with you. I should have left the rope. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Lila hugged Ben. She was relieved. She was glad. She was kind.
+
+"Of course I forgive you, Ben," Lila said. "You are my brother and I love you. But please, next time, be careful and smart and obedient. And don't play with the rope in the rain."
+
+They got up and ran inside. They left the rope behind. It was burned and broken. It was not their friend anymore. It was their enemy.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. They were very happy.
+
+"Let's go find some berries for his mouth!" Lily said. "I saw some red ones on the bush over there."
+
+"OK, but be careful!" Tom said. "The snow is very deep and cold. And the berries might be frozen too."
+
+They ran to the bush and picked some berries. They were very sour, but they liked them. They put some on the snowman's face. He looked very funny.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Snowman!" Lily said. "Do you like your berries?"
+
+The snowman did not answer. He was frozen. But he smiled with his berry mouth.
+
+Lily and Tom laughed. They hugged the snowman. They were very warm.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to watch films on the TV. One day, Sara comes to Tom's house with a new film. She says, "Look, Tom, I have a new film. It is about a princess and a dragon. Do you want to watch it with me?"
+
+Tom does not look at Sara. He is playing with his cars on the floor. He says, "No, I don't want to watch your film. I want to play with my cars. They are fast and loud. Your film is boring and quiet."
+
+Sara feels sad. She says, "But, Tom, we always watch films together. And this film is not boring. It is fun and exciting. The princess is brave and the dragon is funny. Please, watch it with me."
+
+Tom ignores Sara. He does not listen to her. He keeps playing with his cars. He makes them zoom and crash. He makes a big mess on the floor.
+
+Sara gets angry. She says, "Fine, Tom, if you don't want to watch my film, I don't want to play with you. You are a bad friend. You are messy and rude. I will watch my film by myself." She takes her film and goes to the couch. She puts the film in the TV and watches it alone.
+
+Tom does not care. He thinks he does not need Sara. He thinks his cars are better than her film. But after a while, he gets bored. He looks at the TV and sees the princess and the dragon. They are having fun. They are singing and dancing. They are happy. Tom feels lonely. He wishes he had watched the film with Sara. He wishes he had been a good friend. He says, "Sara, I'm sorry. Can I watch the film with you?"
+
+But Sara ignores Tom. She does not look at him. She does not listen to him. She keeps watching the film. She smiles and laughs. She does not need Tom. She thinks he is a bad friend. She thinks her film is better than his cars.
+Tom likes to write poems. He uses his crayons and paper to make words and pictures. He thinks poems are fun and pretty. He wants to show his poems to his mom and dad.
+
+But his big sister Lily does not like poems. She thinks poems are silly and boring. She likes to play with her dolls and dress them up. She does not want Tom to bother her with his poems.
+
+One day, Tom finds a new crayon. It is very bright and shiny. He wants to use it for his poem. He goes to his room and starts to write. He makes a poem about a star and a moon. He is very happy with his poem.
+
+He runs to Lily's room to show her his poem. He knocks on the door and says, "Lily, Lily, look at my poem!" But Lily is busy with her dolls. She does not want to see Tom's poem. She says, "Go away, Tom! I don't care about your poem! Leave me alone!"
+
+Tom feels sad and hurt. He does not understand why Lily is so mean. He says, "But Lily, I worked hard on my poem. It is very nice. Please look at it. Please be nice to me."
+
+Lily gets angry. She opens the door and snatches Tom's poem. She says, "Fine, I'll look at it. But I bet it is very bad." She looks at Tom's poem and laughs. She says, "This is not a poem. This is a mess. You can't write. You can't draw. You are a baby. This is a baby poem." She tears Tom's poem into pieces and throws them on the floor. She says, "There. Now go away and don't come back."
+
+Tom feels very sad and angry. He cries and picks up the pieces of his poem. He says, "Lily, you are very mean. You are very rough. You hurt my feelings. You hurt my poem. You are not a good sister. I don't like you." He runs to his mom and dad and tells them what Lily did.
+
+Mom and dad are very upset. They scold Lily and tell her to apologize to Tom. They say, "Lily, you are not allowed to be mean to Tom. You are not allowed to tear his poem. You are not allowed to hurt his feelings. You should be kind and respectful to your brother. You should say sorry to him and make him a new poem."
+
+Lily feels ashamed and sorry. She realizes she was wrong. She says, "I'm sorry, Tom. I'm sorry, mom and dad. I was mean and rough. I didn't mean to hurt you. I will make you a new poem. I will be nice to you. I love you."
+
+Tom feels happy and forgives Lily. He says, "I love you too, Lily. Thank you for making me a new poem. I'm sure it will be very nice. You are a good sister."
+
+Mom and dad hug Tom and Lily. They say, "We are proud of you both. You are good children. You can write poems together. Poems are fun and pretty. We love you."
+Ben and Mia were twins who liked to play games. One day, they found a shiny medal in their dad's drawer. It was round and had a star on it. Ben wanted to keep it, but Mia said no.
+
+"It's dad's medal. He got it when he was a soldier. He told us it was very important. We can't keep it, Ben. We have to put it back," Mia said.
+
+"But it's so pretty. I want to wear it. Please, Mia, let me keep it for a little while. I'll be careful, I promise," Ben said.
+
+Mia sighed. She loved her brother, but he was sometimes naughty. She agreed to let him keep the medal for a little while, but only if he didn't show it to anyone. Ben was happy and put the medal around his neck. He felt very proud.
+
+They went outside to play in the yard. They saw their friend Tom, who lived next door. Tom was older and bigger than them. He liked to tease and bully them. He saw Ben's medal and ran towards him.
+
+"Hey, what's that? Give it to me. It's mine now," Tom said. He grabbed the medal and pulled it hard. Ben felt a pain in his neck and cried out. Mia was frightened and angry. She ran to help her brother.
+
+"Leave him alone, Tom. That's not yours. That's dad's medal. Give it back," Mia said. She tried to take the medal from Tom, but he was stronger. He pushed her away and laughed.
+
+"Too bad, Mia. This is a cool medal. I'm going to keep it. Your dad won't miss it. He's not here anyway. He's far away. Maybe he's dead," Tom said. He was very mean and rude.
+
+Ben and Mia felt very sad and scared. They missed their dad a lot. He was not dead, but he was in another country, fighting for peace. He had given them a hug and a kiss before he left. He had told them he loved them and he would come back soon. He had told them to be brave and good. He had shown them his medal and said it was a gift from his friends. He had said it was a symbol of courage and honor. He had said he was proud of them.
+
+Ben and Mia wanted their dad and his medal back. They didn't know what to do. They wished Tom would go away. They wished they had never taken the medal from the drawer. They wished they had listened to Mia. They wished they had been more careful. They wished they had a plan.
+Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to cook. They wanted to make a sauce for their pasta. Tom said, "I know how to make sauce. You just need some water, some salt, and some ketchup." Sam said, "That sounds good. Let's do it."
+
+They poured some water in a pot and put it on the stove. They added some salt and some ketchup. They stirred and stirred. They smelled the sauce and smiled. They thought it was the best sauce ever.
+
+Mom came home and saw the pot on the stove. She said, "What are you boys doing?" Tom and Sam said, "We made sauce for pasta. Do you want to try it?" Mom said, "Sure, I'll try it." She took a spoon and tasted the sauce. She made a face and spit it out. She said, "This is not sauce. This is water with salt and ketchup. It is yucky and bad for you. How did you make this?"
+
+Tom and Sam looked at each other. They felt sad and ashamed. They said, "We thought it was sauce. We wanted to make you happy. We are sorry, Mom." Mom said, "It's okay, boys. I know you tried. But you should not cook without me. You could get hurt or make a mess. And you should not use ketchup for sauce. Ketchup is for hot dogs and fries, not for pasta. Next time, I'll show you how to make a real sauce with tomatoes and herbs and cheese. It is yummy and good for you."
+
+Mom hugged Tom and Sam and said, "I love you, boys. You are not ignorant. You are just curious and creative. But you need to learn more about cooking. Come on, let's go to the store and buy some ingredients for a real sauce. And then we'll make pasta together. And then we'll eat and applaud our work." Tom and Sam said, "Okay, Mom. We love you too. And we want to learn more about cooking. And we want to eat and applaud our work." They smiled and followed Mom to the store. They hoped their sauce would be better this time.
+Tim and Kim are friends. They like to play with dolls and cars. They have many toys in their room. But they do not like to share. Sometimes they fight over the toys. They make a lot of noise. They suffer when they fight.
+
+One day, Tim and Kim have a big row. Tim wants to play with the red car. Kim wants to play with the red car too. They both pull the car. They both shout. "It is mine!" "No, it is mine!" They do not listen to each other. They do not have fun.
+
+Mom hears the row. She comes to the room. She sees Tim and Kim fighting. She is not happy. She takes the red car away. She says, "You cannot play with the red car. You have to learn to share. Sharing is good. Sharing makes you popular. Do you want to be popular?"
+
+Tim and Kim stop fighting. They look at Mom. They look at each other. They feel sorry. They say, "Yes, we want to be popular. We want to have more friends. We want to share. We are sorry, Mom."
+
+Mom smiles. She gives the red car back. She says, "That is good. You can play with the red car together. You can take turns. You can also play with the other toys. You have many toys. You have enough toys for everyone. You can invite other kids to play with you. You can be popular and happy."
+
+Tim and Kim nod. They hug Mom. They hug each other. They say, "Thank you, Mom. We love you. We love each other. We will share. We will be popular and happy." They play with the red car and the other toys. They have fun. They do not suffer. They do not row. They are friends.
+Lily and Sam were best friends. They liked to play with toys, draw pictures and read books. One day, Lily was sad because her grandma was sick. She missed her grandma a lot and wanted to see her.
+
+Sam saw that Lily was sad and wanted to help. He had an idea. He said, "Lily, let's make a card for your grandma. Maybe that will make her happy."
+
+Lily nodded and smiled a little. She said, "Okay, Sam. That's a good idea. What should we put on the card?"
+
+Sam thought for a moment. He said, "How about we draw some flowers and hearts and write 'I love you, Grandma'?"
+
+Lily liked that. She said, "Yes, let's do that. And we can also put some stickers and glitter on it."
+
+They got some paper, crayons, scissors, glue, stickers and glitter. They worked hard to make the card beautiful and colorful. They wrote their names on the card and put it in an envelope.
+
+Sam said, "Lily, I think your grandma will love this card. It's very pretty and sweet."
+
+Lily hugged Sam and said, "Thank you, Sam. You are a very good friend. You make me feel better."
+
+Sam hugged Lily back and said, "You're welcome, Lily. You are a very good friend too. You make me happy."
+
+They squeezed each other and smiled. They felt comfortable and warm. They were happy to have each other. They hoped that the card would make Lily's grandma happy too.
+Sam and Mia like to race in the bath. They have a lot of toys that can swim and splash. They also have a big bottle of shampoo that makes bubbles. Sam and Mia take turns to squeeze the shampoo and make a big foam mountain.
+
+One day, Sam had a clever idea. He said to Mia, "Let's race with the shampoo. We can see who can make the most bubbles in one minute." Mia agreed. She liked to race with Sam. They both got ready and counted to three.
+
+Sam and Mia started to squeeze the shampoo as fast as they could. They made a lot of bubbles that flew in the air and landed on their heads. They laughed and shouted, "Look at me! I have more bubbles than you!" They did not see that the shampoo was running out.
+
+When the minute was over, Sam and Mia stopped and looked at each other. They were both covered in white foam. They looked like snowmen. They also looked at the bottle of shampoo. It was empty. There was no more shampoo left.
+
+Sam and Mia felt sad. They liked the shampoo. It smelled nice and made their hair soft. They did not want to waste it. They also felt sorry for their mom. She would be angry when she saw the empty bottle. They looked at each other with pale faces. They did not know what to say. They wished they did not race with the shampoo.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they see a big case in the park. The case is dirty and old. They are curious.
+
+"Let's open the case!" Lily says.
+
+"Maybe there are more toys inside!" Ben says.
+
+They run to the case and open it. But they are disappointed. There are no toys, only papers and clothes. They are boring.
+
+"Who owns this case?" Lily asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe someone forgot it here," Ben says.
+
+They are about to close the case, when they hear a loud voice.
+
+"Hey, you kids! Stop stealing my case!" The voice belongs to a man. He is angry and scary. He runs to them.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They drop the case and run away. They don't want to steal. They just want to play.
+
+"Sorry, mister! We didn't know it was your case!" Lily shouts.
+
+"Leave us alone! We didn't take anything!" Ben shouts.
+
+They run to their homes and tell their parents what happened. Their parents hug them and say they are not bad kids. They just made a mistake. They tell them not to touch other people's things without asking. They say they are sorry to the man with the case.
+
+Lily and Ben learn a lesson. They promise to be more careful next time. They are still friends. They still like to play with toys. But they don't open dirty cases anymore.
+Lily was sick. She had a bad cough and a hot head. She did not want to play or eat. She only wanted to sleep. Her mom was worried. She called the doctor.
+
+The doctor came to Lily's house. He had a big bag with tools. He smiled at Lily and said, "Hello, Lily. I am here to help you. Can I check your ears and your throat?" Lily nodded. She was scared, but she trusted the doctor. He was nice and gentle. He looked at her ears and her throat with a light. He listened to her chest with a stethoscope. He gave her a sticker with a flower.
+
+"You have a cold, Lily. You need to drink a lot of water and take this medicine. It will make you feel better soon. But you have to promise me something." The doctor said. "What is it?" Lily asked. "You have to promise me that you will not scratch your chickenpox. They are the red spots on your skin. They are itchy, but if you scratch them, they will hurt and leave scars. Do you understand?" The doctor said. Lily looked at her arms and legs. She saw the red spots. She felt the itch. She nodded. "I promise, doctor. I will not scratch them." She said.
+
+"Good girl. You are very brave and smart. And you know what? When your chickenpox go away, you will have beautiful skin. No scars, no spots. Just smooth and soft. Like a princess." The doctor said. He gave her a hug and a lollipop. He said goodbye to Lily and her mom. He left.
+
+Lily felt a little better. She drank some water and took her medicine. She did not scratch her chickenpox. She remembered the doctor's words. She wanted to have beautiful skin. Like a princess. She fell asleep with a smile. She dreamed of flowers and castles.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big car stop near the swings. A lady came out of the car. She wore a shiny dress and a hat with feathers. She looked very wealthy.
+
+"Who is she?" Anna asked Ben.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe she is a princess," Ben said.
+
+The lady walked to the ice cream truck and bought a cone with three scoops of cream. She licked the cream and smiled. Anna and Ben watched her with wide eyes. They only had one scoop of cream each.
+
+"Can we have more cream, too?" Anna asked their mom, who was sitting on a bench.
+
+"No, sweetie. We don't have enough money for that. Cream is expensive," their mom said.
+
+"Why is cream expensive?" Ben asked.
+
+Their mom tried to explain. "Well, cream comes from cows. And cows need a lot of grass and water and care. And some people have more cows and more money than others. And they can charge more for their cream."
+
+Anna and Ben did not understand. They thought it was not fair. They wanted more cream, too.
+
+"Can we share with the lady?" Anna asked.
+
+Their mom shook her head. "No, honey. That would be rude. She bought her cream with her own money. She can do what she wants with it."
+
+The lady finished her cream and threw the cone in the trash. She got back in her car and drove away. Anna and Ben looked at their mom.
+
+"Maybe when we grow up, we can have more cream," Ben said.
+
+"Maybe," their mom said. "But remember, cream is not the most important thing in life. There are other things that make us happy, like love and kindness and friendship."
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They hugged their mom and finished their cream. They decided to play with their friends on the swings. They were not wealthy, but they were happy.
+Sara was very happy when she got a new doll for her birthday. She named her doll Lily and played with her every day. She liked to dress Lily in pretty clothes and comb her long hair. She also liked to pretend that Lily was her sister and talk to her.
+
+One day, Sara and Lily went outside to play in the snow. Sara made a snowman and a snow fort and had fun throwing snowballs. She put Lily in the snow fort and said, "You can be the queen of the snow, Lily. I will protect you from the bad guys." Lily smiled and nodded.
+
+But Sara forgot to check the time and stayed outside too long. The sun went down and the air became very cold. Sara started to shiver and her nose turned red. She remembered that she had to go home for dinner and ran to get Lily. But when she picked up Lily, she saw that Lily was also shivering and her face was blue. Sara felt scared and sad. She hugged Lily and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to leave you in the cold. Please don't be sick. Please don't die."
+
+Sara ran home with Lily in her arms. She hoped that her mom could help Lily. She knocked on the door and cried, "Mom, mom, please open the door. Lily is sick. She needs help."
+
+Her mom opened the door and saw Sara and Lily. She was surprised and worried. She took Sara and Lily inside and said, "What happened, Sara? Why are you and Lily so cold and wet?"
+
+Sara told her mom what happened and begged her to save Lily. Her mom felt sorry for Sara and Lily. She said, "Don't worry, Sara. Lily is not a real person. She is a doll. She can't get sick or die. She just needs to dry and warm up. I will put her in the dryer and she will be fine."
+
+Sara felt relieved and happy. She said, "Thank you, mom. You are the best mom ever. I love you and I love Lily."
+
+Her mom smiled and hugged Sara. She said, "I love you too, Sara. And I love Lily. But next time, don't stay outside too long. And don't forget to bring Lily with you. She doesn't like the cold either."
+
+Sara nodded and said, "I promise, mom. I will take good care of Lily. She is my best friend."
+
+Her mom took Lily to the dryer and turned it on. Sara waited patiently and hoped that Lily would be okay. She heard a loud noise and smelled something sour. She wondered what it was. She ran to the dryer and opened it. She saw Lily inside. But Lily was not smiling and nodding anymore. Lily was melted and burned. Sara screamed and cried. She said, "Lily, Lily, what happened to you? You are not the same. You are not my Lily. You are a monster."
+
+Her mom heard Sara scream and ran to the dryer. She saw Lily and gasped. She said, "Oh no, Sara. I'm so sorry. I didn't know that Lily was made of plastic. I thought she was made of cloth. The dryer was too hot for her. It ruined her. I'm so sorry, Sara. I didn't mean to hurt Lily. I wanted to help her."
+
+Sara was very angry and sad. She said, "You are not sorry. You are mean. You killed Lily. You are a bad mom. I hate you and I hate Lily. I don't want her anymore. She is not my friend. She is a monster."
+
+She threw Lily on the floor and ran to her room. She slammed the door and cried. She wished that Lily was alive and well. She wished that she never played in the snow. She wished that she never got Lily for her birthday. She wished that everything was different.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog near a tree. The dog has a bone with meat on it. Tom and Sam want the bone.
+
+"Let's take the bone from the dog," Tom says. "It looks yummy."
+
+"No, Tom, that is not nice," Sam says. "The dog will be angry. He will bite us."
+
+Tom does not listen to Sam. He runs to the dog and tries to grab the bone. The dog growls and snaps at Tom. Tom is scared and runs away. He cries and has a scratch on his arm.
+
+Sam observes the dog. The dog is calm and happy with his bone. Sam is wise and knows not to bother the dog. He goes to Tom and hugs him.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom," Sam says. "Are you okay?"
+
+Tom nods and wipes his tears. He says sorry to the dog. He learns his lesson.
+
+"Next time, we will not take things from others," Sam says. "We will be kind and share."
+
+Tom agrees. They go to their mom and tell her what happened. She gives them a band-aid and a cookie. They say thank you and smile. They are good brothers.

+The police catch the man with the gun. They put him in the police car. They say to the driver, "You are brave. You are a hero." They say to the passengers, "You are fine. You are lucky." They say to Anna and Ben, "You are fine. You are brave. Where are your parents?"
+
+Anna and Ben say, "Our parents are at home. We wanted to go to the park." The police say, "We will take you home. Don't worry. You are fine." They put Anna and Ben in the police car. They drive them home.
+
+Anna and Ben see their parents. They run to them and hug them. They tell them what happened. Their parents are shocked and relieved. They say, "We are so glad you are fine. We love you. You are brave." They say to the police, "Thank you for saving our children. You are heroes."
+
+Anna and Ben say, "Thank you, police. You are heroes. You saved us." They say to each other, "We are fine. We are brave. We are twins." They smile and hug. They are happy. They are fine.
+Sara loves to play in the garden with her friend Lily. They like to smell the flowers and chase the butterflies. Sara's favorite flower is the pink rose. She thinks it is very pretty and sweet.
+
+One day, Sara and Lily find a big pink rose in the garden. They want to pick it and give it to Sara's mom. They think she will be happy and love them more.
+
+"Can we pick the rose, Sara?" Lily asks.
+
+"Yes, let's do it. Mom will like it a lot," Sara says.
+
+They reach for the rose, but they do not see the thorns. Ouch! The rose hurts their fingers and makes them bleed. They cry and drop the rose.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to the garden. She sees the rose and their fingers. She hugs them and kisses their fingers.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. We wanted to give you the rose. We love you," Sara says.
+
+"I love you too, Sara. And I love you, Lily. You are very sweet and kind. But you don't have to pick the rose for me. The rose is happy in the garden. And I am happy with you," Mom says.
+
+She takes them inside and puts a band-aid on their fingers. Then she gives them some cookies and milk. They smile and hug mom. They are happy too.
+Ben and Mia like to play with their toys. They have a big box of toys with cars, dolls, animals and more. One day, they find a new toy in the box. It is a small machine with a red button and a black wire. Ben picks it up and says, "What is this?"
+
+Mia looks at it and says, "I don't know. Maybe it is a record. It can make sounds."
+
+Ben says, "Let's try it. Maybe it can record our voices." He presses the red button and says, "Hello, hello, this is Ben." Then he lets go of the button and presses it again. He hears his voice coming out of the machine. He laughs and says, "Wow, it works! It records my voice!"
+
+Mia says, "Let me try too." She presses the red button and says, "Hi, hi, this is Mia." Then she lets go of the button and presses it again. She hears her voice coming out of the machine. She smiles and says, "This is fun! It records my voice too!"
+
+Ben and Mia take turns to record their voices and play them back. They make funny sounds, sing songs and tell jokes. They have a lot of fun with the record.
+
+But they don't know that the record is not a toy. It is a trap. It belongs to a bad man who wants to catch them. He put the record in the box to lure them. He is hiding behind a bush and watching them. He has a big net and a brown bag. He waits for the right moment to catch them.
+
+He thinks, "Soon, I will have two little kids in my bag. I will sell them for a lot of money. They are so silly. They don't know that the record is a trap."
+
+But he is wrong. Ben and Mia are not silly. They are smart. They notice that the record has a black wire. They follow the wire and see the bad man behind the bush. They see his net and his brown bag. They are scared, but they are brave. They have an idea.
+
+They pretend that they don't see the bad man. They keep playing with the record. They say, "We are so happy. We love this record. It is our favorite toy. We will never let it go."
+
+The bad man thinks, "They are so happy. They love the record. They will never let it go. This is my chance. I will catch them now."
+
+He jumps out of the bush and throws his net over them. He says, "Ha, ha, I got you. You are mine now. You will never see your toys again."
+
+But he is surprised. Ben and Mia are not in the net. They are behind him. They have run away. They have tricked him. They say, "Ha, ha, you are silly. You fell for our trap. We don't love the record. We hate it. We will never play with it again."
+
+They run to their house and tell their mom and dad what happened. Their mom and dad are proud of them. They hug them and say, "You are very smart and brave. You escaped from the bad man. You are safe now."
+
+They call the police and tell them about the bad man. The police come and catch him. They take him away. They say, "You are very bad. You tried to catch the kids. You will go to jail."
+
+Ben and Mia are happy. They say, "We are glad. The bad man is gone. We are free now."
+
+They go back to their toys and play with them. They forget about the record. They don't need it. They have each other. They are the best friends.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, Sara brings a new toy to Ben's house. It is a big car that can make sounds and lights. Ben thinks it is very cool. He wants to try it.
+
+Sara lets Ben play with the car. But Ben is too rough. He pushes the car too hard and too fast. He makes it crash into the wall. The car makes a loud noise and stops. Ben looks at the car. It is broken. The wheels are off and the lights are gone. Ben feels bad. He says sorry to Sara.
+
+Sara is sad. She likes her new car. She does not want it to be broken. She starts to cry. Ben does not know what to do. He wants to make Sara happy. He looks around the room. He sees a box of crayons and some paper. He has an idea.
+
+Ben takes the crayons and the paper. He draws a picture of the car. He tries to make it look like the car before it was broken. He uses many colors and shapes. He writes "Sara and Ben" on the top. He gives the picture to Sara.
+
+Sara looks at the picture. She sees the car and the words. She sees that Ben tried to make her feel better. She stops crying. She smiles at Ben. She says thank you to Ben. She hugs Ben. Ben smiles back. He hugs Sara. They are friends again. They decide to play with the crayons and the paper. They stay happy.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to help their mom in the kitchen. One day, mom asked them to measure some flour and sugar for a cake. She gave them a big cup and a small spoon and told them to be careful.
+
+Lily and Ben took turns to fill the cup with flour and sugar. But Ben was careless and spilled some on the floor. He did not tell mom or clean it up. He just laughed and said, "It's okay, we have enough."
+
+Mom put the cake in the oven and told Lily and Ben to set the table for the meal. They did as they were told and waited for the cake to be ready. They smelled the sweet aroma and licked their lips.
+
+But when mom opened the oven, she saw that the cake was flat and burned. She was very sad and angry. She asked Lily and Ben what they did wrong. Lily said, "We measured the flour and sugar like you said, mom." Ben said nothing and looked down.
+
+Mom saw the mess on the floor and realized what happened. She scolded Ben for being careless and dishonest. She said, "You wasted the flour and sugar and ruined the cake. Now we have no dessert for the meal. You should have told me the truth and cleaned up your mess. You should be sorry for what you did."
+
+Lily and Ben felt bad for making mom unhappy. They said they were sorry and hugged mom. They learned that they should be careful and honest when they help in the kitchen. They hoped that mom would forgive them and make another cake someday.
+Lily was a lonely duck. She had no friends to play with in the pond. She wished she could sail to a new place and find some friends. One day, she saw a big boat on the water. It looked like a lot of fun. She decided to swim closer and see if she could sail with the boat.
+
+"Hello, boat!" she quacked. "Can I sail with you?"
+
+The boat did not answer. It was not a friendly boat. It was a mean boat. It had a big net that it used to catch fish. The boat saw Lily and thought she was a fish. It threw the net over her and pulled her out of the water.
+
+"Help! Help!" Lily cried. "I am not a fish! I am a duck! Let me go!"
+
+But the boat did not listen. It did not care. It sailed away with Lily in the net. Lily was scared and sad. She wished she had stayed in the pond. She wished she had not been so lonely.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be careful what you wish for. You might get more than you bargained for.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. Anna has a new wallet. It is pink and shiny. She shows it to Ben.
+
+"Wow, your wallet is so pretty!" Ben says. "Can I see it?"
+
+"Okay, but be careful," Anna says. She gives her wallet to Ben.
+
+Ben looks at the wallet. He sees a picture of a princess inside. He likes the picture. He wants to keep the wallet.
+
+"No, give it back!" Anna says. She tries to grab her wallet from Ben.
+
+"No, it is mine now!" Ben says. He runs away with the wallet.
+
+Anna is angry and sad. She runs after Ben. She wants her wallet back.
+
+"Stop, thief!" she shouts.
+
+Some other kids hear Anna. They see Ben with the wallet. They know it is Anna's wallet. They are Anna's friends. They want to help her.
+
+They run after Ben too. They try to catch him. Ben is scared. He sees many kids behind him. He drops the wallet and keeps running.

+Anna picks up her wallet. She is happy. She thanks her friends.
+
+"Anna, you are so popular!" one of her friends says. "Everyone likes you and your wallet!"
+
+Anna smiles. She hugs her wallet. She is glad she has her wallet and her friends.
+Tim and Sue were twins who liked to play with toys. One day, they saw a big box outside their house. It was brown and had many words on it. They did not know what the words said, but they wanted to see what was inside the box.
+
+"Let's open it!" Tim said. He ran to the box and tried to lift the lid. But it was too heavy for him. He asked Sue to help him. Sue came and pushed the lid with him. Together, they opened the box.
+
+Inside the box, they saw many things. There were clothes, shoes, books, and toys. They were all new and shiny. Tim and Sue smiled. They thought the box was a gift for them. They took out some of the things and tried them on. They looked funny and happy.
+
+But then, they heard a voice. It was their mom. She came out of the house and saw them with the box. She looked angry and sad.
+
+"Tim, Sue, what are you doing?" she asked. "That box is not for you. It is for the poor people who live in the other street. They have no clothes, no shoes, no books, and no toys. They need them more than you do. You have to put them back in the box and say sorry."
+
+Tim and Sue felt bad. They did not know the box was for the poor people. They thought it was for them. They did not want to make their mom angry and sad. They did not want to make the poor people sad. They took off the things they tried on and put them back in the box. They said sorry to their mom.
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "It's okay. I know you did not mean to do wrong. You are good kids. But you have to learn to share and care for others. The poor people will be happy when they get the box. And you will be happy too, because you helped them. Come on, let's take the box to them and see their smiles."
+Mia and Leo were playing in the park with their dolls. They liked to pretend that their dolls were friends and had adventures together. They made up stories and voices for their dolls and had fun.
+
+But then a nosy boy came over and watched them. He did not say hello or ask to play. He just gazed at their dolls with a mean look. He did not like dolls. He thought they were silly and for babies. He wanted to make fun of Mia and Leo.
+
+"Ha ha, look at you two, playing with dolls!" he said. "Dolls are for girls, not for boys. And your dolls are ugly and old. You should get new ones, or better yet, play with something else."
+
+Mia and Leo felt sad and angry. They did not like the boy. He was a judge. He did not know them or their dolls. He did not know how much they loved them and how much fun they had. He was rude and mean.
+
+"Go away, you nosy boy!" Mia said. "We don't want to play with you. We like our dolls. They are our friends. And Leo can play with dolls if he wants to. He is a good boy. You are a bad boy."
+
+Leo nodded and hugged his doll. He did not care what the boy said. He liked his doll. He liked Mia. He liked playing with dolls.
+
+The boy snorted and walked away. He did not have any friends. He did not have any fun. He was lonely and bored.
+
+Mia and Leo smiled and went back to playing with their dolls. They did not let the boy bother them. They were happy and had fun. They were friends.
+Lily liked to jog with her dad every morning. They would put on their shoes and hats and go outside. They would jog around the park and see the birds and the flowers. Lily felt happy and strong when she jogged with her dad.
+
+One day, Lily saw a coffee shop on the way to the park. She smelled the coffee and wanted to try it. She asked her dad if they could stop and get some coffee. Her dad said no, coffee was not for little girls. It was too hot and bitter and would make her jumpy. Lily felt sad and angry. She wanted to taste the coffee.
+
+Lily decided to be naughty. She waited until her dad was not looking and ran away from him. She ran to the coffee shop and sneaked inside. She saw a big cup of coffee on a table. She reached for it and grabbed it. She took a sip and made a face. The coffee was hot and bitter and burned her tongue. She dropped the cup and spilled the coffee all over the floor. She started to cry.
+
+The coffee shop owner and her dad heard her cry and came to see what happened. They saw the mess and the cup and Lily. The coffee shop owner was angry and said Lily had to pay for the coffee and the cleaning. Her dad was worried and said Lily had to go to the doctor and check her tongue. Lily felt sorry and scared. She wished she had not been naughty and listened to her dad.
+
+Her dad hugged her and said he loved her, but she had to learn from her mistake. He paid the coffee shop owner and took Lily to the doctor. The doctor gave Lily some ice and medicine and said her tongue would be fine. Lily said she was sorry and she would never drink coffee again. Her dad said he was glad and he would always jog with her. Lily felt better and hugged her dad. She learned that coffee was not for little girls and jogging was more fun.
+Lila liked to play with her velvet doll. The doll had a red dress and black hair. Lila hugged her doll and gave her a name. She called her doll Anna.
+
+One day, Lila went to the park with her mom and Anna. She saw some other kids playing with a ball. Lila wanted to play too. She asked her mom if she could join them. Her mom said yes, but told her to be careful with Anna.
+
+Lila ran to the kids and said hello. She showed them her velvet doll and asked if they wanted to see. Some of the kids were nice and said yes. They said Anna was pretty and soft. But one kid was mean and said no. He said Anna was small and silly. He grabbed Anna from Lila and threw her on the ground.
+
+Lila was very sad and angry. She ran to the kid and shouted at him. She said he was mean and rude. She said he had to give Anna back. The kid laughed and said no. He said he would quit playing with the ball and play with Anna instead. He said he would make Anna dirty and tear her dress.
+
+Lila cried and ran to her mom. She told her mom what happened. Her mom hugged her and said she was sorry. She said the kid was wrong and mean. She said she would help Lila get Anna back. She said Lila did not have to quit playing with her velvet doll. She said Anna was small and lovely. She said Anna was Lila's friend.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. They were having fun and did not notice the big dog that was watching them from behind a tree.
+
+The dog was hungry and angry. It did not like children. It wanted to bite them and take their ball. It waited for a chance to attack. When Tom kicked the ball too far, Lily ran after it. The dog saw this and ran after Lily.
+
+Lily saw the dog and was scared. She screamed for Tom to help her. Tom heard her and turned around. He saw the dog and was scared too. He wanted to help Lily, but he did not know what to do. He looked for a stick or a stone, but he could not find any.
+
+The dog reached Lily and jumped on her. It bit her arm and made her bleed. Lily cried and tried to push the dog away, but it was too strong. Tom ran to Lily and tried to pull the dog off, but it was too big. It bit Tom's leg and made him bleed too. Tom and Lily cried and screamed for help.
+
+No one heard them. No one came to help them. The dog bit them more and more until they stopped moving. The dog took their ball and ran away. Tom and Lily were dead. They were not safe. They were not happy. They were not playing.
+
+The moral of the story is: always pay attention to your surroundings and stay away from danger. Never play alone or go too far from your parents or friends. If you see a bad animal or a bad person, run away and call for help. Be careful and be smart.
+One day, Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big box under a tree. They were curious. What was in the box? They wanted to find out.
+
+"Let's open the box," Lily said. "Maybe it is a mystery."
+
+"OK," Tom said. "But be careful. It might be something scary or bad."
+
+They walked to the box and lifted the lid. Inside, they saw many colorful things. There were balls, books, toys, and clothes. They were happy. They liked the things.
+
+"Wow, look at all these things," Lily said. "They are so original. I have never seen them before."
+
+"Me neither," Tom said. "They are so fun. Let's play with them."
+
+They took out some things and started to play. They had a good time. They forgot about the box.
+
+But then, they heard a voice. It was angry and loud.
+
+"Hey, you kids! What are you doing with my things? That is my box. Give them back to me!"
+
+They looked up and saw a man. He was big and mean. He was running to them. He was the owner of the box.
+
+They were scared. They dropped the things and ran away. They did not want to get in trouble.
+
+They ran to their mom and dad. They told them what happened. They were sorry. They did not know the box belonged to someone.
+
+"It's OK," their mom and dad said. "You did not mean to do anything wrong. You were just curious. But next time, don't touch things that are not yours. They might be someone else's mystery."
+Ben and Lily were playing with a big puzzle. They liked to fit the pieces together and make a picture of a farm. But there was one piece that they both wanted. It was the piece with the cow's head.
+
+"I saw it first!" Ben said. He tried to grab the piece from the table.
+
+"No, I did!" Lily said. She pulled the piece away from Ben.
+
+"Give it to me!" Ben shouted. He pulled harder.
+
+"Let go!" Lily cried. She pulled harder too.
+
+They pulled and pulled until the piece tore in half. They both fell back and looked at the broken piece. They felt sad and angry.
+
+"You are selfish!" Ben said. He threw his half of the piece on the floor.
+
+"You are selfish too!" Lily said. She threw her half of the piece on the floor too.
+
+They turned away from each other and did not talk. They did not want to play with the puzzle anymore. They did not want to play with each other anymore.
+
+Mom came into the room and saw the mess. She saw the broken piece and the unhappy faces.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom asked.
+
+Ben and Lily did not answer. They looked at the floor.
+
+Mom sighed. She picked up the broken piece and put it together. She showed it to Ben and Lily.
+
+"See, this is the cow's head. It is a nice piece, but it is not worth fighting over. There are many other pieces in the puzzle that you can share and enjoy. And there is only one Ben and one Lily in the world. You are brother and sister. You should love and help each other, not hurt and hate each other. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+Ben and Lily looked at the cow's head. They looked at each other. They felt sorry and ashamed.
+
+"Yes, Mom, we understand. We are sorry. We were selfish." Ben said.
+
+"Yes, Mom, we understand. We are sorry. We were selfish too." Lily said.
+
+They hugged Mom and said thank you. They hugged each other and said sorry. They picked up the pieces and finished the puzzle together. They smiled and laughed. They were happy again.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big dog with a silver collar. The dog was friendly and wagged its tail.
+
+"Can we pet the dog?" Lily asked.
+
+"OK, but be careful. He might chew your hand," Ben said.
+
+They went closer to the dog and said hello. The dog licked their faces and let them touch his fur. He was soft and warm.
+
+"Look, he has a silver bone on his collar. Maybe he likes bones," Lily said.
+
+She picked up a stick and threw it. The dog ran after it and brought it back. He dropped it at their feet and barked.
+
+"Good boy! Do you want to play fetch?" Ben asked.
+
+He threw the stick again and the dog chased it. They played for a while and had fun.
+
+But then, the dog started to cough. He looked weak and tired. He lay down on the grass and whimpered.
+
+"What's wrong with him?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe he ate something bad. We should find his owner," Ben said.
+
+They looked around and saw a man with a silver hat. He was calling the dog's name.
+
+"Rex! Rex! Where are you, boy?"
+
+"Is that your dog?" Ben asked.
+
+"Yes, he is. Have you seen him?" the man asked.
+
+"He's here. He's sick. He was playing with us, but then he coughed and lay down," Lily said.
+
+The man ran to the dog and checked his mouth. He saw a piece of glass stuck in his throat.
+
+"Oh no! He must have chewed on a broken bottle. That's very dangerous. We need to take him to the vet right now," the man said.
+
+He thanked Ben and Lily for finding his dog and lifted him up. He put him in his car and drove away.
+
+Ben and Lily waved goodbye and hoped the dog would be OK.
+
+They learned a lesson that day. They should never chew on things that are not food. They could hurt themselves or their friends. They should only chew on things that are safe and good for them.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the kitchen. They had many toys, but they also liked to explore the big things that their mom and dad used. One day, they saw the dishwasher was open and full of shiny plates and cups. They wanted to touch them and see how they felt.
+
+"Look, Lily, this one is blue and this one is red!" Tom said, pointing to the cups.
+
+"Can we take them out and play with them?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, why not? Mom and dad are not here. They won't know." Tom said.
+
+They crawled to the dishwasher and reached for the cups. But they did not know how to hold them carefully. They dropped them on the floor and they broke into many pieces. They heard a loud noise and saw the broken cups. They felt scared and ashamed.
+
+"Oh no, what have we done?" Tom said.
+
+"We broke the cups! Mom and dad will be angry!" Lily said.
+
+They heard footsteps and saw their mom and dad coming to the kitchen. They looked at the mess and at the twins. They were not happy.
+
+"Tom, Lily, what did you do?" Mom asked.
+
+"We're sorry, mom. We wanted to play with the cups, but we broke them." Tom said.
+
+"We didn't mean to, mom. We were curious." Lily said.
+
+Mom and dad sighed. They were not happy, but they were not angry either. They knew the twins were young and did not understand. They hugged them and said.
+
+"It's okay, Tom and Lily. We know you didn't mean to. But you have to be careful with the things in the kitchen. They are not toys. They can be dangerous and hurt you. And you have to ask us before you touch them. Do you understand?"
+
+"Yes, mom, yes, dad. We understand. We're sorry." Tom and Lily said.
+
+They helped their mom and dad clean up the mess. They learned their lesson and never played with the dishwasher again. They played with their toys instead. They were happy and safe.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big stick. They take turns to hold it and pretend it is a sword.
+
+"Look at me, I am a knight!" Tom says. He swings the stick and makes a loud noise.
+
+"Me too, me too!" Lily says. She wants to hold the stick. She tries to grab it from Tom.
+
+"Hey, stop it! It is my turn!" Tom says. He does not want to share the stick. He pulls it back and hits Lily on the arm.
+
+"Ow, that hurts!" Lily says. She starts to cry. She runs to her mom, who is sitting on a bench.
+
+"What happened, sweetie?" Mom asks. She sees a red mark on Lily's arm.
+
+"Tom hit me with a stick!" Lily says. She shows Mom the stick.
+
+Mom is angry. She goes to Tom and his mom. She tells them what Tom did.
+
+"Tom, is that true?" Tom's mom asks. She looks at Tom with a serious face.
+
+Tom feels bad. He knows he did something wrong. He wants to be honest.
+
+"Yes, Mom, I did it. I am sorry, Lily. I was not nice. Can you forgive me?" Tom says. He gives the stick to Lily.
+
+Lily stops crying. She sees that Tom is sorry. She wants to be kind.
+
+"Thank you, Tom. I forgive you. Do you want to play with me?" Lily says. She smiles at Tom.
+
+Tom smiles back. He nods his head.
+
+"Yes, please. Can we play something else?" Tom says.
+
+"Sure. How about we bathe the ducks in the pond?" Lily says.
+
+"Okay. That sounds fun!" Tom says.
+
+They run to the pond. They find some bread and feed the ducks. They splash water on them and make them clean. They laugh and have fun. They are friends again.

+One day, they find a coin that is different from the others. It is not shiny like silver or gold, but brown like dirt. It is not round like most coins, but has a hole in the middle. It is not thin like paper, but thick like a cookie. Lila and Ben wonder what kind of coin it is.
+
+They show the coin to their mom and ask her. She tells them that it is a copper coin, and that it is very rare. She says that copper coins are not made anymore, and that they are worth a lot of money. She says that they are lucky to find one, and that they should keep it safe.
+

+Ben and Lily wanted to fly a kite. They asked Mom to supply them with a kite and some string. Mom said yes, but they had to be careful and not go too far.
+
+Ben and Lily ran outside with the kite. They found a big hill with a lot of wind. They took turns holding the kite and running. The kite flew high and bright in the sky. They felt happy and free.
+
+"Look, Ben, the kite is so pretty!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, Lily, it is. But don't let go of the string!" Ben said.
+
+Lily nodded. But she was very sleepy. She had woken up early and played a lot. She yawned and rubbed her eyes. She did not notice that the string was slipping from her hand.
+
+Suddenly, the kite flew away. It went over the trees and out of sight. Ben and Lily gasped. They had lost their kite.
+
+"Mom, Mom, we lost our kite!" they cried. They ran back to the house.
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "Don't worry, my loves. It was an accident. Maybe someone will find your kite and enjoy it. Or maybe it will come back to you someday. Now, let's go inside and have some milk and cookies. You look very sleepy."

+One evening, they saw a new kid in the park. He had a big red ball and a beautiful blue jacket. Lily and Max wanted to play with him, but he did not want to share. He said the ball and the jacket were his and his only. He was very mean and rude.
+
+Lily and Max felt sad and angry. They tried to be nice and ask him to join them, but he said no. He said they were silly and boring. He threw his ball at them and laughed. Lily and Max ran away, crying.
+
+They hid behind a tree and hugged each other. They wished they had their own ball and jacket. They did not like the new kid at all. They hoped he would go away soon.
+
+But then, something happened. A big dog came running into the park. It saw the red ball and the blue jacket. It liked them very much. It ran towards the new kid and jumped on him. It grabbed the ball and the jacket in its mouth and ran away.
+
+The new kid was scared and shocked. He screamed and chased the dog, but it was too fast. He lost his ball and his jacket. He felt very sad and sorry.

+
+When they got to Grandma's house, Lily saw a big basket of apples on the table. She wanted to eat one, but Grandma said they were sour. "Sour apples are not good for you, Lily. They will make your teeth hurt and your tummy ache. You can have a sweet apple later, after dinner."
+
+Lily did not listen to Grandma. She waited until Grandma was busy in the kitchen and sneaked an apple from the basket. She bit into it and made a face. It was very sour and bitter. She spit it out and threw the apple away. She felt a pain in her mouth and her stomach. She wished she had listened to Grandma.
+
+She ran to her bag and looked for Chicky. She wanted to cuddle with Chicky and feel better. But Chicky was not there. Lily remembered that she had left Chicky at home. She felt very sad and lonely. She started to cry.
+
+Grandma heard her cry and came to see what was wrong. She saw the apple core on the floor and Lily's tears. She hugged Lily and said, "What happened, my dear? Why are you crying?"
+
+Lily told Grandma everything. She said she was sorry for taking the sour apple and for forgetting Chicky. She said she missed Chicky and wanted to go home.
+
+Grandma said, "I'm sorry, too, Lily. You made a bad choice and now you have to face the consequences. You can't go home until tomorrow. You have to stay here and rest. Maybe next time you will listen to me and be more careful with your things."
+
+Lily nodded and yawned. She was tired and sick. She wished she had Chicky with her. She learned a hard lesson that day. She learned that sour apples are not good for you and that you should always take care of your toys.

+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily said. She held the paper tight and folded it more. "I want to make a rainbow!"

+"No, you can't. It's not for touching. It's for looking," Ben said. He was envious of Lily. He wanted to touch the lion too, but he was afraid.
+
+Lily did not listen to Ben. She ran to the statue and put her hand on its mane. She felt happy. She smiled.

+"I don't know, Lily. We need to ask Mom," Tom said.
+
+They ran to the living room, where Mom was reading a book. They showed her the box and asked her if they could bake a cake.

+
+"Oh no, my balloon has a leak!" she cried. "It will pop soon!"
+
+Ben ran over to her and looked at the balloon. He had an idea.
+
+"Maybe we can fix it," he said. "Let's go to the shed and find some tape."
+
+They ran to the shed and searched for tape. They found a roll of duct tape and tore off a piece. Ben tried to stick it on the balloon, but it was hard. The balloon was slippery and round, and the tape did not stick well.
+
+"Uh-oh, this is not working," he said. "The tape is falling off."
+
+Lily took the balloon and tried to hold the leak with her finger. She struggled to keep the water in, but it was too much. The balloon grew bigger and bigger, and then...

+
+"I have four cars too," Ben said. "But my copper car is the best. It is faster and stronger than your cars."
+
+Lily did not like that. She thought her cars were good too. She wanted to see the copper car.
+
+"Can I play with your copper car, Ben?" she asked.
+
+"No, you can't," Ben said. "It is mine and I don't want to share it. You can play with your own cars."

+But then, they heard a loud crash. The rocket hit the ceiling and fell down. It broke into pieces. Lily and Ben were scared and sad. They crawled out of the rocket and looked at the mess.
+
+"Oh no, our rocket is broken!" Lily cried. "We can't go to space anymore!"
+
+"It's OK, Lily. Don't cry. Maybe we can fix it." Ben said. "Or we can make another one."
+
+He hugged his sister and tried to make her feel better. They picked up the pieces and put them in a box. They decided to ask their mom for some help. They still wanted to go to space someday.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hill with grass and flowers. They wanted to go up the hill and see what was on the other side.
+
+"Let's go, Tom!" Lily said. "Maybe we can find something fun!"
+
+"OK, Lily!" Tom said. "But be careful. The hill is very high and steep."
+
+They held hands and started to climb the hill. They had to use their feet and their hands to go up. They felt the sun on their faces and the wind in their hair. They were happy and excited.
+
+They reached the top of the hill and looked around. They saw a big lake with ducks and fish. They saw a small house with a red roof and a chimney. They saw a man with a hat and a guitar. He was sitting on a bench and singing a song.
+
+"Hello, children!" the man said. "Do you like my song?"
+
+"Yes, we do!" Tom and Lily said. "It is very nice and sweet."
+
+"Thank you!" the man said. "Do you want to join me? I can teach you how to play the guitar."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They liked music and wanted to learn something new. They sat next to the man and he gave them each a small guitar. He showed them how to hold it and how to strum it. He taught them some simple chords and some simple words.
+
+"Sing with me!" the man said. "It is easy and fun!"
+
+Tom and Lily sang with the man. They sang about the lake and the ducks and the fish. They sang about the house and the roof and the chimney. They sang about the hill and the grass and the flowers. They sang loud and clear and happy.
+
+They became good singers and good guitar players. They had a lot of fun and made a lot of noise. They did not notice that the sky was getting dark and the clouds were getting thick. They did not hear the thunder and see the lightning. They did not feel the raindrops falling on their heads.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud voice. It was their mom. She was looking for them and she was worried. She saw them on the hill and she called them.
+
+"Tom! Lily! Come here right now!" she said. "It is going to storm and you need to go home!"
+
+Tom and Lily stopped singing and playing. They looked at the sky and they saw the rain and the lightning. They were scared and surprised. They said goodbye to the man and thanked him for the guitars and the song. They ran down the hill and went to their mom.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom!" Tom said. "We did not know it was going to rain!"
+
+"We were having fun, mom!" Lily said. "We learned how to play the guitar and sing a song!"
+
+Their mom hugged them and smiled. She was glad they were safe and happy. She took them home and gave them some warm clothes and some hot chocolate. She listened to their story and praised them for their talent and their adventure.
+
+"It is OK, Tom and Lily!" she said. "You are fine and brave and smart. But next time, please watch the weather and come back sooner. I love you very much!"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They loved their mom very much too. They drank their chocolate and sang their song. They were fine and happy and proud.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes they missed the ball and it rolled away. They had to be careful not to lose the ball or let it go near the road.
+
+One time, the ball went too far and landed in the bushes. Anna and Ben ran to get it, but they saw a big dog in the bushes. The dog was barking and growling. It looked angry and scary. Anna and Ben were afraid of the dog. They did not want to get near it.
+
+"Let's hide!" Anna whispered to Ben. "Maybe the dog will go away."
+
+They ran behind a tree and crouched down. They hoped the dog did not see them. They waited for a long time, but the dog did not leave. It kept barking and growling in the bushes.
+
+"Where are you, Anna and Ben?" They heard their mom calling them. She was looking for them in the park. She sounded worried.
+
+"We have to tell mom!" Ben said to Anna. "She will help us get the ball and make the dog go away."
+
+"But we will be in trouble!" Anna said. "We were not supposed to go near the bushes. Mom said they were dirty and had bugs."
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He did not want to be in trouble, but he also did not want to be afraid of the dog. He decided to be brave and tell the truth.
+
+"Come on, Anna. Let's go to mom. She will not be mad if we tell her what happened. She will be happy that we are safe."
+
+They got up and ran to their mom. They told her about the ball and the dog. Their mom hugged them and said they did the right thing. She said the dog was harmless and just wanted to play with the ball. She said she would get the ball for them and they could play some more.
+
+Anna and Ben were glad they listened to Ben. They learned that hiding was not always the best way to solve a problem. They also learned that the dog was not so scary after all. They thanked their mom and played with the ball and the dog. They had fun in the park.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. Today is a sunny day, so they prepare to go out. They put on their hats, shoes and coats. They also take their bikes and helmets.
+
+"Are you ready, kids?" Mom asks.
+
+"Yes, Mom!" Anna and Ben say.
+
+They walk to the park with their mom and dad. They see a big fountain with water and coins. They stop and look at it.
+
+"Wow, look at all the pennies!" Anna says.
+
+"What are they for?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sometimes, people throw pennies in the fountain and make a wish," Dad explains.
+
+"Can we make a wish, too?" Anna asks.
+
+"Sure, why not?" Mom says. "But you have to use your own pennies, not the ones in the fountain."
+
+Mom and Dad give Anna and Ben each a penny. They hold them in their hands and think of a wish.
+
+"I wish for a new doll," Anna says.
+
+"I wish for a new car," Ben says.
+
+They throw their pennies in the fountain and watch them splash.
+
+"Did you make a good wish?" Mom asks.
+
+"Yes, Mom!" Anna and Ben say.
+
+They smile and hug their mom and dad. Then they get on their bikes and ride around the park. They have fun and see many things. They see a wide bridge, a tall tree, a small duck and a big dog.
+
+They are happy and enjoy their day. They hope their wishes will come true.
+Jill and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the snow. One day, they saw a big hill. It looked fun to slide down.
+
+"Let's go!" Jill said. "It will be fast and fun!"
+
+"OK, but be careful," Tom said. "The snow is icy. It can be slippery."
+
+They climbed up the hill. Jill went first. She sat on a sled and pushed off. She slid down very fast. She laughed and shouted.
+
+Tom followed her. He also sat on a sled and pushed off. But he slid too fast. He could not stop. He went past Jill and hit a tree.
+
+"Ow!" Tom cried. "That hurt!"
+
+Jill ran to him. She saw that he had a cut on his head. It was bleeding.
+
+"Oh no, Tom!" Jill said. "Are you OK?"
+
+Tom felt dizzy. He was scared. He wanted his mom.
+
+"Jill, please help me," Tom said. "Please get my mom."
+
+Jill nodded. She understood. She made a promise.
+
+"I will, Tom," Jill said. "I will get your mom. You stay here. Don't move. I will be back soon."
+
+She left her sled and ran to the house. She told Tom's mom what happened. Tom's mom grabbed a coat and a bandage and ran to the hill.
+
+She found Tom. He was still by the tree. He was cold and sad.
+
+"Tom, I'm here," Tom's mom said. "Don't worry. I will take care of you."
+
+She wrapped the bandage around his head. She hugged him and kissed him.
+
+"Thank you, mom," Tom said. "You are the best."
+
+"Thank you, Jill," Tom's mom said. "You are a good friend. You kept your promise."
+
+Jill smiled. She was happy. She helped her friend. She kept her promise.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big stage with many chairs. They run to the stage and climb up the stairs. They see a microphone on a stand. Anna wants to try it.
+
+"Hello, hello, can you hear me?" Anna says into the microphone. Her voice is very loud and echoes in the park. Ben laughs and claps his hands.
+
+But then, a man comes to the stage. He looks angry and has a big hat. He shouts at Anna and Ben.
+
+"Hey, you kids, get off the stage! This is not a toy! This is for the concert tonight!"
+
+Anna and Ben are frightened. They drop the microphone and run down the stairs. They look for their mom and dad. They find them on a bench and hug them.
+
+"Mom, dad, we are sorry. We saw a microphone and wanted to play. But a man yelled at us and scared us," Anna says.
+
+"It's okay, sweetie. You didn't know. But you have to be careful. Some things are not for playing. They are for working or for special events. The microphone is for the singers who will perform tonight. They need it to sing to the people," mom says.
+
+"Oh, I see. I like singing, but I don't need a microphone. I can sing with my own voice," Ben says.
+
+"That's right, Ben. You have a beautiful voice. And you can sing anytime you want. But not on the stage. That's for the professionals," dad says.
+
+Anna and Ben nod and smile. They are not frightened anymore. They are happy. They ask their mom and dad if they can watch the concert tonight. Mom and dad say yes. They think it will be fun. They hope the man with the big hat will not be angry anymore. They hope he will like their singing too.
+Lily was a poor girl who lived with her mom in a small house. She did not have many toys or clothes, but she had a big dream. She wanted to be a teacher and help other children learn.
+
+Every night, she would read a book that her mom gave her for her birthday. It was a book about animals and their names. She loved to learn new words and imagine how the animals looked and sounded.
+
+One night, she had a dream that she was in a big school with many children. She was the teacher and she was showing them the book. She pointed to a picture of a lion and said, "This is a lion. It is big and yellow and has a mane. It roars like this: roar!" The children smiled and repeated after her.
+
+Then, she pointed to a picture of a penguin and said, "This is a penguin. It is small and black and white and has a beak. It waddles like this: waddle, waddle!" The children laughed and copied her.
+
+She felt very happy and proud in her dream. She thought, "I am a good teacher. I can help the children learn and have fun."
+
+But then, she heard a loud noise. It was her mom, waking her up. "Lily, Lily, wake up. It is time to go to school. You have to get ready."
+
+Lily opened her eyes and saw her mom smiling at her. She hugged her mom and said, "Mom, I had a wonderful dream. I was a teacher and I taught the children about animals. It was so much fun."
+
+Her mom kissed her and said, "That is a beautiful dream, Lily. Maybe one day, you can make it come true. You are a smart and kind girl. You can do anything you want, if you work hard and never give up."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. I will work hard and never give up. I will manage to be a teacher one day."
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "I love you too, Lily. I am very proud of you. Now, let's go to school. Maybe you can tell your teacher and your friends about your dream."
+
+Lily nodded and got ready. She took her book and her backpack and followed her mom. She felt happy and hopeful. She knew that her dream was not just a dream. It was a goal. And she would manage to reach it.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play outside in the sun. One day, they saw a big mountain far away. It was very high and had white snow on top.
+
+"Let's go to the mountain!" Lily said. "Maybe we can see some flowers there."
+
+"OK!" Ben said. "But how do we get there? It is too far to walk."
+
+They asked their mom and dad if they could take them to the mountain. Their mom and dad said yes, but they had to wear warm clothes and hats. They packed some snacks and water and got in the car.
+
+They drove for a long time, and the mountain got closer and closer. They saw many trees and animals on the way. They also saw some flowers that were very pretty and colorful.
+
+"Look, Ben!" Lily said. "Those flowers are blooming. They are opening up and showing their petals. They are happy to see the sun."
+
+"They are beautiful, Lily!" Ben said. "Can we pick some and take them home?"
+
+Their mom and dad said they could, but only a few. They had to leave some for the bees and the birds. They stopped the car and got out. They ran to the flowers and smelled them. They were sweet and fresh.
+
+They picked some flowers and made a bouquet. They also saw some butterflies and ladybugs. They tried to catch them, but they were too fast and flew away.
+
+They had a lot of fun at the mountain. They ate their snacks and drank their water. They thanked the flowers and the animals for letting them visit. They got back in the car and drove home.
+
+They showed their flowers to their grandma and grandpa. They were very proud and happy. They put them in a vase and gave them some water. They said they were the perfect flowers from the perfect mountain. They hugged each other and smiled. They were the perfect friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to ride their bikes and scooters. They always wore their gear: helmets, pads and gloves. They knew gear would protect them from getting hurt.
+
+One day, they saw a new boy in the park. He had a big bike, but no gear. He zoomed past them and did tricks. He laughed and said, "Gear is for babies. I don't need it. I'm brave and cool."
+
+Lily and Ben felt confused. They wanted to be brave and cool, too. But they also wanted to be safe. They looked at their gear and wondered if they should take it off.
+
+Then, they heard a loud crash. The new boy had fallen off his bike. He scraped his knee and elbow. He cried and said, "Ow, ow, ow. It hurts so much. Where is my mom?"
+
+Lily and Ben ran to help him. They gave him a band-aid and a hug. They said, "We're sorry you got hurt. You should wear gear when you ride your bike. Gear is not for babies. Gear is for smart and kind people. Gear protects you and your friends."
+
+The new boy nodded and said, "Thank you. You're right. Gear is good. Can I play with you?"
+
+Lily and Ben smiled and said, "Sure. Come on, let's have fun."
+
+The moral of the story is: Gear is important for safety and friendship.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in their room. They had many toys and books and games. But they did not like the radio. The radio was on the shelf, and it made harsh noises. Sometimes it talked, and sometimes it sang, and sometimes it was just loud.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily were playing with their dolls. They heard the radio make a scary noise. It was like a roar. They looked at the radio, and saw a red light. The radio said, "This is an emergency. There is a big storm coming. Stay inside and be safe."
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They did not like storms. They did not like the radio. They ran to their mom and dad. They hugged them and told them what the radio said.
+
+Mom and Dad smiled and kissed them. They said, "Don't be scared. The radio is just a machine. It tells us things that are happening in the world. Sometimes it tells us good things, and sometimes it tells us bad things. But we are here to protect you and love you. The storm will not hurt us. We will stay inside and play together."
+
+Tom and Lily felt better. They went back to their room with Mom and Dad. They turned off the radio. They played with their toys and books and games. They did not hear the storm. They did not hear the radio. They heard their mom and dad laugh and sing. They were happy.
+Leo was a rare lion who lived in the jungle. He liked to hang from the trees and swing with his tail. He was very strong and brave, but also very lonely. He had no friends to play with.
+
+One day, he saw a big bird flying in the sky. It had bright colors and a long beak. Leo wanted to talk to the bird, so he climbed up a tree and called out.
+
+"Hello, bird! What is your name? Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+The bird heard Leo and flew closer. He was curious about the lion who hung from the trees.
+
+"Hello, lion! My name is Rani. I am a toucan. I have never seen a lion like you before. Why do you hang from the trees?"
+
+Leo smiled and said, "I like to hang from the trees. It is fun and I can see the whole jungle. Why do you fly in the sky?"
+
+Rani said, "I like to fly in the sky. It is free and I can see many things. I can also find fruits and nuts to eat."
+
+Leo and Rani realized that they had something in common. They both liked to explore and try new things. They decided to be friends and play together.
+
+They had a lot of fun hanging from the trees and flying in the sky. They also shared their food and stories. Leo was happy to have a friend who understood him. Rani was happy to have a friend who admired him. They were a rare pair, but a perfect match.
+Sara loves to play with her toy plane. She likes to make it fly in the air and zoom around the room. She pretends that she is a pilot and goes on great adventures.
+
+One day, she decides to fly her plane to the park. She puts it in her backpack and walks with her mom. She sees many birds and flowers on the way. She thinks they are very pretty.
+
+When she gets to the park, she takes out her plane and runs to the grass. She throws it in the air and watches it soar. She feels very happy. But then, a strong wind blows and her plane goes too far. She tries to catch it, but it lands on a tree.
+
+Sara feels very sad. She does not know how to get her plane back. She asks her mom for help, but her mom is too short to reach the tree. She looks around and sees a boy with a ladder. She runs to him and says, "Please, can you help me? My plane is on the tree. I need a ladder to get it."
+
+The boy is very kind. He says, "Sure, I can help you. I have a ladder. I was going to supply water to the flowers. But I can do that later. Come, let's get your plane." He carries his ladder to the tree and sets it up. He climbs up and gets Sara's plane. He gives it to her and says, "Here you go. Be careful with your plane. It has a very nice wing. It can fly very fast."
+
+Sara is very grateful. She says, "Thank you, thank you, thank you. You are very nice. You helped me a lot. You are a great friend." She hugs him and smiles. She plays with her plane again and shares it with him. They have a lot of fun. They become good friends. Sara is very happy. She thinks that today is a great day.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. They have a lot of toys, but they want more. They see a big box in the living room. It has a picture of a sofa on it.
+
+"Look, Ben, a new toy!" Lily says.
+
+"No, Lily, that is not a toy. That is furniture. Mom and Dad bought it for the living room. It is a sofa. You can sit on it and watch TV," Ben says.
+
+Lily and Ben are curious. They open the box and see the sofa. It is soft and colorful. They want to try it.
+
+"Let's play with the sofa, Ben. We can pretend it is a car or a boat or a castle," Lily says.
+
+"OK, Lily, but we have to be careful. We don't want to break it or make it dirty. Mom and Dad will be angry," Ben says.
+
+They drag the sofa to their room. They have fun with it. They make noises and stories. They put pillows and blankets on it. They forget about their other toys.
+
+After a while, Mom and Dad come home. They see the box in the living room. It is empty. They are confused.
+
+"Where is the sofa? We ordered it online. It was very expensive. It was made by a famous designer. It was supposed to be here today," Mom says.
+
+"Maybe they made a mistake. Maybe they sent it to the wrong address. Let's call the company and ask them," Dad says.
+
+They go to their room to get the phone. They see Lily and Ben on the sofa. They are smiling and laughing. They are happy.
+
+"Look, Mom and Dad, we found the sofa. It is so fun. We love it. Thank you for the sofa," Lily and Ben say.
+
+Mom and Dad are surprised. They are also happy. They see that Lily and Ben are having a good time. They see that the sofa is not broken or dirty. They see that the sofa is a good toy.
+
+"Maybe we don't need to call the company. Maybe they sent it to the right address after all. Maybe the sofa is not just furniture. Maybe it is also a toy," Mom says.
+
+"Maybe you are right, Mom. Maybe the sofa is not just made by a famous designer. Maybe it is also made by Lily and Ben," Dad says.
+
+They hug Lily and Ben. They join them on the sofa. They play with them. They are a happy family.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a sign that said "Do not whistle here". They wondered why the sign was there.
+
+"Maybe it is because whistling is loud and rude," Lily said.
+
+"Or maybe it is because whistling is fun and they do not want us to have fun," Ben said.
+
+They decided to whistle anyway, because they were curious and naughty. They whistled as loud as they could, making different sounds and tunes.
+
+But they did not know that the sign was there for a reason. There was a big dog in the park, who did not like whistling. The dog thought that whistling was a challenge, and he got angry and scared. He ran towards Lily and Ben, barking and growling.
+
+Lily and Ben were very afraid. They stopped whistling and tried to run away, but the dog was faster and stronger. He caught up with them and bit Ben's leg. Ben cried out in pain and fear.
+
+Lily saw a man nearby, who was the dog's owner. She shouted for help. The man heard her and came running. He saw the dog biting Ben and whistled loudly. The dog heard his owner's whistle and let go of Ben. He ran back to the man, who scolded him and put a leash on him.
+
+The man apologized to Lily and Ben, and helped Ben with his wound. He explained that his dog was weak and sick, and that whistling made him nervous and angry. He said that he put the sign there to warn people not to whistle, so that his dog would not hurt anyone.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for the dog and the man. They also felt sorry for themselves, for being foolish and disobedient. They learned a lesson that day: they should respect signs and rules, and not do things that might harm others or themselves. They thanked the man and said sorry to the dog. They promised to never whistle in the park again.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They live in a big house with many toys. They like to play together every day. But one day, Tom has to go away with his family. He says to Anna, "I will miss you. You are my best friend."
+
+Anna is sad. She says, "I will miss you too. When will you come back?"
+
+Tom says, "I don't know. Maybe in a long time. But we can talk on the phone sometimes."
+
+Anna nods. She gives Tom a hug and a kiss. She says, "Bye, Tom. Have a good trip."
+
+Tom and his family get in the car and drive away. Anna waves to them. She feels lonely. She goes to her room and looks at her toys. She does not want to play with them. She wants to play with Tom. She makes a wish. She says, "I wish Tom was here. I wish we could play together again."
+
+She sees a star in the sky. She thinks it is a magic star. She says, "Star, star, please hear my wish. Please bring Tom back to me. Please make us happy."
+
+The star twinkles. It hears Anna's wish. It sends a message to Tom. It says, "Tom, Tom, Anna misses you. She wishes you were here. She wants to play with you again."
+
+Tom hears the message. He feels happy. He says, "Star, star, thank you for telling me. I miss Anna too. I wish I was there. I want to play with her again."
+
+He tells his parents. He says, "Mom, Dad, can we go back to Anna? She is my best friend. I don't want to be away from her."
+
+His parents are surprised. They say, "But Tom, we are going to a very nice place. It is very rich and beautiful. You will have a lot of fun there."
+
+Tom says, "I don't care about rich and beautiful. I care about Anna. She is more fun than anything. Please, can we go back?"
+
+His parents see that Tom is very serious. They love Tom. They want him to be happy. They say, "OK, Tom, we will go back. We will see Anna again."
+
+Tom is very happy. He says, "Thank you, Mom, Dad. You are the best. And thank you, star, for helping me."
+
+He calls Anna on the phone. He says, "Anna, Anna, guess what? I am coming back. We can play together again. I am so happy."
+
+Anna is very happy too. She says, "Tom, Tom, really? You are coming back? I am so happy too. I can't wait to see you."
+
+They both smile. They both say, "I love you, best friend."
+
+The star smiles too. It says, "You are welcome, Tom and Anna. You are very good friends. I am glad I could make your wish come true."
+Tom and Lily were having breakfast with their mom and dad. They liked to eat toast with jam and drink milk. Mom gave them each a plate with two slices of toast and a small jar of jam. She told them to be careful and not make a mess.
+
+Tom and Lily spread the jam on their toast with their spoons. They liked the sweet and sticky jam. They took big bites and smiled. They were happy and hungry.
+
+But then, a loud noise came from outside. It sounded like a big truck. Tom and Lily stopped eating and looked out the window. They saw a big truck with a long arm and a big claw. The truck was picking up the trash cans from the street and dumping them into a big hole in the back.
+
+Tom and Lily thought the truck was incredible. They had never seen anything like it. They wanted to watch it more. They got up from their chairs and ran to the window. They pressed their noses against the glass and said "Wow!"
+
+But they forgot about their plates and their jam. The plates slid off the table and fell to the floor. The jam spilled everywhere. It made a big mess. Mom and dad heard the noise and came to see what happened. They saw the broken plates and the jam on the floor. They were not happy. They said "Oh no!"
+
+Tom and Lily turned around and saw their mom and dad. They realized they had made a mistake. They had disturbed their breakfast and made a mess. They felt sorry. They said "Sorry, mom and dad. We just wanted to see the truck. It was incredible."
+
+Mom and dad sighed. They were not angry, but they were not pleased. They said "We know you like the truck, but you have to be careful with your food. You can't disturb your breakfast and make a mess. You have to clean up now."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They said "OK, mom and dad. We will clean up." They got a cloth and a mop and started to wipe the jam and the broken pieces. They learned their lesson. They decided to finish their breakfast first, and then watch the truck. They hoped the truck would stay for a while. It was incredible.
+Jenny loved her velvet dress. It was red and soft and shiny. She wore it to the party at Tom's house. She wanted to show it to everyone.
+
+But Tom was not nice. He was jealous of Jenny's dress. He wanted to make her sad. He took his toy cars and threw them at her. The cars hit her dress and made holes. Jenny cried and ran away.
+
+Tom laughed and felt happy. He thought he was clever. But he did not see his mom. She saw what he did. She was angry and grabbed his cars. She said, "Tom, you are very bad. You hurt Jenny and ruined her dress. You have to say sorry and give her a new dress. And you have to scatter your cars in the yard. You cannot play with them for a week."
+
+Tom was scared and sorry. He did not like his mom's words. He did not want to scatter his cars. He liked his cars. He wished he did not throw them at Jenny. He wished he was nice to her.
+
+He ran after Jenny and said, "Jenny, I am sorry. I was mean to you. Your dress is incredible. I will give you a new one. Please be my friend."
+
+Jenny stopped crying and looked at Tom. She saw his sad face and his cars in his mom's hand. She felt sorry for him too. She said, "Tom, thank you. I forgive you. You can be my friend. But you have to be nice to me and my dress."
+
+Tom nodded and smiled. He gave Jenny a hug. They went back to the party and played together. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play together. They had a loyal dog named Spot who followed them everywhere. One day, they went to the park with their mom and Spot. They had fun on the swings, the slide and the sandbox.
+
+When it was time to go home, their mom said, "You were very good today. You can have dessert after dinner." Lily and Ben were happy. They loved dessert. They asked their mom, "What is dessert today?" Their mom said, "It is a surprise. You will see when we get home."
+
+On the way home, they saw a big truck with a picture of ice cream on it. It was the ice cream man. Lily and Ben wanted ice cream. They asked their mom, "Can we have ice cream, please?" Their mom said, "No, you already have dessert at home. And we don't have money for ice cream." Lily and Ben were sad. They really wanted ice cream.
+
+They decided to sneak away from their mom and Spot and run to the ice cream man. They thought their mom would not notice. They ran as fast as they could. They did not look where they were going. They did not see the car that was coming.
+
+The car hit Lily and Ben. They fell to the ground. They were hurt. They cried. Their mom and Spot heard them. They ran to them. They were scared. The ice cream man stopped his truck. He was sorry. He called for help.
+
+Lily and Ben were taken to the hospital. They had broken bones and bruises. They had to stay in bed for a long time. They did not get dessert. They did not get ice cream. They were sorry. They wished they had listened to their mom. They learned a hard lesson.
+It was a cold day. Anna and Ben did not want to go outside. They wanted to stay inside and play. They had many toys on the floor. They had dolls, cars, blocks and books.
+
+"Let's make a house for our dolls," Anna said. She took a big blanket and put it over the table. She made a door with a gap. "This is our house. Come in, Ben."
+
+Ben crawled under the blanket. He brought his cars and blocks. He made a garage for his cars. He and Anna put their dolls on the chairs. They pretended to be a family.
+
+They had fun for a long time. But then they heard a noise. It was their dog, Spot. Spot was outside. He wanted to come in. He barked and scratched the door.
+
+"Who is that?" Anna asked.
+
+"It's Spot," Ben said. "He is cold. He wants to play with us."
+
+Anna and Ben felt sorry for Spot. They liked Spot. He was a good dog. They decided to let him in.
+
+They lifted the blanket and called Spot. Spot ran inside. He was happy to see them. He licked their faces and wagged his tail. He jumped on the table and knocked over the dolls and the cars. He made a mess.
+
+"Spot, no!" Anna and Ben shouted. They tried to stop him. But Spot was too big and fast. He ran around the room. He chased his own tail. He barked and howled.
+
+Anna and Ben shivered. They were scared of Spot. He was too loud and wild. They wanted him to calm down. They wanted him to be a good dog.
+
+They ran to their mom. She was in the kitchen. She was making cookies. She smelled the cookies. They smelled good.
+
+"Mom, help!" Anna and Ben cried. "Spot is crazy. He is ruining our house. He is making a lot of noise. He is scaring us."
+
+Mom looked at them. She saw their faces. They were sad and scared. She felt sorry for them. She loved them. She wanted them to be happy.
+
+She went to the living room. She saw Spot. He was on the table. He was eating the cookies. He was making crumbs. He was happy.
+
+"Spot, down!" Mom said. She used a stern voice. She pointed to the floor. "You are a bad dog. You are not allowed on the table. You are not allowed to eat the cookies. You are making a mess. You are upsetting Anna and Ben. You need to behave."
+
+Spot looked at Mom. He heard her voice. He saw her finger. He knew he was in trouble. He felt sorry. He loved Mom. He wanted her to be happy.
+
+He jumped off the table. He hung his head. He whimpered. He went to his bed. He lay down. He was quiet.
+
+Mom looked at the mess. She sighed. She was not happy. She had to clean up. She had to make more cookies.
+
+She looked at Anna and Ben. They came to her. They hugged her. They thanked her. They were happy. They had their mom. They had their house. They had their toys.
+
+They decided to share their toys with Spot. They knew he was a good dog. He just wanted to play. They loved him.
+
+They all had cookies. They all had milk. They all had fun. They all were warm. They all were happy.
+Lila and Tom were friends who liked to play in the forest. They liked to search for pine cones and make crafts with them. One day, they found a big pine tree with many cones on it.
+
+"Wow, look at all these cones!" Lila said. "Let's pick some and take them home."
+
+"OK, but I want the biggest one," Tom said. He saw a huge cone at the top of the tree and tried to reach it.
+
+"Be careful, Tom, you might fall!" Lila said. She was worried about Tom, but also a little jealous. She wanted the big cone too.
+
+Tom climbed higher and higher, but the cone was too far. He stretched his arm and grabbed it, but then he lost his balance and fell. He hit the ground with a thud and started to cry.
+
+"Tom, Tom, are you OK?" Lila ran to him and saw that he was hurt. He had a cut on his head and a bruise on his arm. The big cone was next to him, but he didn't care about it anymore.
+
+"Help, help, someone help us!" Lila shouted. She was scared and sad. She wished they had never seen the big cone. She wished they had just played with the small ones. She wished Tom was not hurt. She wished they were still friends.
+Ben and Lily went to the beach with Mom and Dad. They wanted to play in the sand and make castles. Mom gave them each a spade and a bucket. Ben's spade was red and Lily's spade was blue.
+
+"Let's dig a big hole and fill it with water," Ben said.
+
+"OK," Lily said. "But I want to choose where to dig."
+
+They looked around and saw many places to dig. Some were near the water, some were far away. Some were smooth, some were bumpy. Some were sunny, some were shady.
+
+Lily saw a spot that was different from the others. It had shells and stones and seaweed. It looked like a treasure island.
+
+"I want to dig here," Lily said, pointing to the spot.
+
+"But that's too far from the water," Ben said. "How will we fill the hole?"
+
+"We can use the bucket," Lily said. "Or we can pretend it's a dry island."
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He liked the idea of a treasure island. He also liked to choose.
+
+"OK," he said. "Let's dig here. But I get to choose what we find."
+
+They nodded and smiled. They took their spades and buckets and ran to the spot. They started to dig and make their own island. They had fun choosing what they found and what they made. They did not care that their spades were different. They were happy to play together.
+Tommy did not like vegetables. He liked candy and cake and ice cream. But his mom said he had to eat his vegetables if he wanted dessert. She put a big plate of green beans and carrots in front of him.
+
+"Mom, I don't want this. It looks yucky and dry," Tommy said, making a face.
+
+"You have to eat your vegetables, Tommy. They are good for you. They make you strong and healthy," his mom said, urging him to take a bite.
+
+"But I don't like them. They taste bad. Can I have some juice instead?" Tommy asked, pushing his plate away.
+
+"No, you can't have juice. You can have water or milk. And you can't have dessert until you finish your vegetables. Come on, Tommy, it's not that hard. Just try one bite and see if you like it," his mom said, picking up a fork and a green bean.
+
+She held it near his mouth and smiled. Tommy looked at the green bean and felt scared. He did not want to eat it. He wanted to run away and play with his toys. He shook his head and closed his mouth.
+
+"Please, Tommy, just one bite. For me. I promise you will like it. It's crunchy and sweet. And if you eat it, you can have a cookie later," his mom said, trying to be nice.
+
+Tommy looked at his mom and saw that she was sad. He did not want to make her sad. He loved his mom. He opened his mouth and let her put the green bean in. He chewed it and swallowed it. It was not as bad as he thought. It was a little dry, but it was also crunchy and sweet.
+
+"See, Tommy, that wasn't so bad, was it? Do you want another one?" his mom asked, holding another green bean.
+
+Tommy nodded and took another one. He ate it and smiled. He liked green beans. He ate some more and then some carrots. He finished his plate and felt proud.
+
+"Good job, Tommy! I'm so proud of you. You ate all your vegetables. You are a big boy. Now you can have your dessert. What do you want?" his mom asked, hugging him.
+
+"I want a cookie, please. And some milk. And some more green beans," Tommy said, surprising his mom.
+
+"More green beans? Really? You like them that much?" his mom asked, laughing.
+
+"Yes, mom. I like them. They are good for me. They make me strong and healthy. And they are crunchy and sweet," Tommy said, repeating his mom's words.
+
+"Okay, then. You can have some more green beans. And a cookie. And some milk. You are a very good boy, Tommy. I love you," his mom said, kissing him.
+
+"I love you too, mom. Thank you for the vegetables," Tommy said, happy.
+Lily likes books. She likes to look at the pictures and hear the stories. She has many books in her room, on a bookshelf. The bookshelf is high, so Lily cannot reach the top books. She wants to see the top books. She thinks they are more fun.
+
+One day, Lily has an idea. She sees a chair in her room. She thinks she can use the chair to climb the bookshelf. She pushes the chair to the bookshelf. She stands on the chair and reaches for the top books. She grabs one book and pulls it. But the book is heavy and the bookshelf is not strong. The bookshelf shakes and falls. The books and the bookshelf hit Lily and the chair. Lily cries. She is hurt and scared.
+
+Mom hears Lily cry. She runs to Lily's room. She sees the mess and Lily on the floor. She is angry and worried. She picks up Lily and hugs her. She says, "Lily, what did you do? You could have been very hurt. You should not climb the bookshelf. It is dangerous. You should ask me for help. I am very mad at you." Lily feels sorry and sad. She says, "I'm sorry, Mom. I wanted to see the top books. I think they are more fun." Mom says, "No, Lily. The books are all the same. They are all fun. But you are more important than the books. You should be careful and listen to me. Now you have to go to the doctor and fix your boo-boos. And you have to clean up your room and say sorry to your books. Do you understand?" Lily nods and says, "Yes, Mom. I understand. I'm sorry." Mom says, "I love you, Lily. But you have to be good and smart. OK?" Lily says, "OK, Mom. I love you too." Mom takes Lily to the doctor and then to her room. Lily is in trouble and in pain. She does not like the top books anymore. She thinks they are bad.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play at the beach. They make sand castles and look for shells. They have fun.
+
+One day, they see a big boat on the water. It is white and shiny. It has flags and windows. It looks fancy. Anna and Ben want to see it closer.
+
+They find a big rock near the water. They climb on it. They lean over the edge. They try to see the boat. They wave and shout. They hope the boat will see them.
+
+But the rock is slippery. Anna and Ben lose their balance. They fall into the water. They splash and scream. They are wet and scared.
+
+A man on the boat sees them. He throws a rope to them. He pulls them up. He wraps them in towels. He is kind and friendly. He tells them his name is Sam. He is the captain of the boat.
+
+He shows them around the boat. He lets them touch the flags and the windows. He gives them cookies and juice. He tells them stories about the sea. They have fun.
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They thank Sam for saving them and showing them his fancy boat. They say goodbye. They go back to the beach. They are still wet, but they are not scared. They are brave. They are friends.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play together at school. Lily is good at drawing and Ben is good at singing. They support each other and share their toys.
+
+One week, their teacher says they will have a special show. The show is for their parents and other kids. The teacher says they can do anything they want. Lily and Ben are happy. They have a unique idea.
+
+They decide to make a song and a picture together. Lily draws a big sun and a rainbow. Ben sings a song about colors and happiness. They practice every day. They help each other and say nice words.
+
+The day of the show comes. Lily and Ben are nervous. They hold hands and go on the stage. They show their picture and sing their song. The parents and the other kids clap and cheer. Lily and Ben smile and hug. They are proud of their unique show. They thank each other for their support. They are the best friends.
+Anna and Ben were twins. They liked to play in the park near their home. One day, they saw a big truck with many boxes. The truck stopped at the house next to the park. The house was old and empty. No one lived there for a long time.
+
+"Who is coming?" Anna asked.
+
+"Maybe someone new," Ben said.
+
+They ran to the fence and peeked through the holes. They saw a man and a woman get out of the truck. They also saw a dog and a cat. The dog was big and brown. The cat was small and black.
+
+"Hello!" the man said. He saw Anna and Ben. "We are your new neighbors. I am Tom and this is Lisa. And this is Rex and Fluffy."
+
+"Hi!" Anna and Ben said. They liked animals. "We are Anna and Ben. We live in that house." They pointed to their home.
+
+"Nice to meet you," Lisa said. She smiled. "Do you want to come and see our new house? We have some toys and books for you."
+
+"Really?" Anna and Ben asked. They were curious.
+
+"Yes, of course," Tom said. He opened the gate. "You are welcome to our house. Come on, Rex and Fluffy. Let's make some new friends."
+Sara and Tom were brother and sister. They liked to play in the attic of their house. The attic had many old things that their parents did not use. Sara and Tom liked to build things with the old things. They built castles, cars, robots, and more.
+
+One day, they found a big box in the attic. The box had many colorful blocks inside. Sara and Tom were very happy. They wanted to build something with the blocks. They took the blocks out of the box and started to build.
+
+"Look, I made a tower!" Sara said.
+
+"That's nice, but I made a bridge!" Tom said.
+
+They kept building and building. They did not share the blocks. They wanted to have more blocks than the other. They started to fight over the blocks.
+
+"Give me that block, it's mine!" Sara said.
+
+"No, it's mine, I saw it first!" Tom said.
+
+They pulled and pushed the blocks. They made a lot of noise. They did not notice that their mom came to the attic.
+
+"What are you doing?" their mom asked.
+
+Sara and Tom stopped fighting. They looked at their mom. They felt ashamed.
+
+"We were building with the blocks, but we wanted more blocks than the other," Sara said.
+
+"That's not a good way to play," their mom said. "You should share the blocks and work together. You can build more things and have more fun that way. And you should also be careful with the old things in the attic. They might break or hurt you."
+
+Sara and Tom nodded. They said sorry to their mom and to each other. They put the blocks back in the box. They decided to build something together with the blocks. They built a big house with a tower and a bridge. They were very proud of their house. They were also very happy. They learned to share and cooperate. They were playful and kind.
+Tim and Sam were jolly boys who liked to play in the forest. They had a big bucket and a small shovel. They wanted to fill the bucket with things they found in the forest.
+
+They walked and walked until they saw a big hill. They climbed the hill and saw a lot of rocks. "Let's fill the bucket with rocks!" said Tim. "They are hard and shiny!" He picked up a rock and put it in the bucket.
+
+Sam nodded and picked up another rock. He put it in the bucket too. They did this until the bucket was full of rocks. "Wow, the bucket is so heavy!" said Sam. "We did a good job!"
+
+They carried the bucket down the hill and saw a stream. The stream had clear water and fish. "Let's fill the bucket with water!" said Tim. "It is cool and wet!" He poured out the rocks and dipped the bucket in the water.
+
+Sam nodded and dipped his shovel in the water too. He splashed some water on Tim's face. "Hey, that's fun!" said Tim. He splashed some water on Sam's face too. They laughed and played with the water until the bucket was full of water. "Wow, the bucket is so light!" said Sam. "We did a good job!"
+
+They carried the bucket along the stream and saw a meadow. The meadow had green grass and flowers. "Let's fill the bucket with flowers!" said Tim. "They are pretty and smell nice!" He poured out the water and picked a flower. He put it in the bucket.
+
+Sam nodded and picked another flower. He put it in the bucket too. They did this until the bucket was full of flowers. "Wow, the bucket is so colorful!" said Sam. "We did a good job!"
+
+They carried the bucket back to their home and showed it to their mom. Their mom smiled and hugged them. "You are jolly boys who like to play in the forest!" she said. "You filled the bucket with wonderful things!" She put the bucket on the table and gave them a cookie. They ate the cookie and felt happy. They loved the forest and their mom.
+Lily likes to play with her ball. She rolls it on the floor and catches it. She rolls it to her mom and dad and they roll it back. She rolls it to her dog and he chases it. Lily is happy.
+
+But one day, Lily has a visitor. It is her aunt, who brings a parrot. The parrot is big and colorful. It can talk. Lily thinks it is funny. She wants to play with the parrot.
+
+She rolls her ball to the parrot and says, "Catch!" But the parrot does not catch. It pecks. It pecks the ball and makes a hole. The air comes out and the ball goes flat. Lily is sad.
+
+She says, "Bad parrot! You broke my ball!" The parrot says, "Bad parrot! You broke my ball!" It copies Lily. Lily is angry.
+
+She runs to her mom and dad and tells them what happened. They say, "We are sorry, Lily. The parrot did not know. It is not polite to break things. But it is also not polite to yell. Maybe you can teach the parrot to be nice."
+
+Lily thinks. She says, "OK. I will try." She goes back to the parrot and says, "Hello, parrot. I am Lily. Do you want to be my friend?" The parrot says, "Hello, Lily. I am Polly. Yes, I want to be your friend." Lily smiles.
+
+She says, "Friends do not break things. Friends share things. Do you want to share my crayons?" The parrot says, "Yes, I want to share your crayons." Lily gives the parrot a crayon and they draw together. They draw a ball and a dog and a flower. Lily is happy.
+
+She says, "You are a good parrot, Polly. You are polite." The parrot says, "You are a good girl, Lily. You are polite." They hug. Lily is happy.
+Lila was a big girl who liked to do things by herself. She was independent and did not need help from anyone. She liked to play in the garden and move the earth with her shovel and bucket. She made hills and holes and pretended they were mountains and caves.
+
+One day, she saw a big worm in the earth. She wanted to catch it and put it in her bucket. She moved closer and reached out her hand. But the worm was fast and wiggled away. Lila followed it with her eyes and saw it disappear under a big rock.
+
+"Come back, worm!" she shouted. "I want to play with you!"
+
+She tried to move the rock, but it was too heavy. She pushed and pulled, but it did not budge. She felt frustrated and angry. She kicked the rock with her foot, but it only hurt her toe.
+
+"Ow!" she cried. "Stupid rock!"
+
+She heard a voice behind her. It was her brother, Tom. He was older and stronger than Lila. He had been watching her from the window.
+
+"What are you doing, Lila?" he asked.
+
+"I want to catch the worm, but it went under the rock, and I can't move it!" she said.
+
+"Let me help you," he said. "We can move it together."
+
+He came over and put his hands on the rock. He told Lila to do the same. They counted to three and pushed hard. The rock moved a little bit. They saw the worm wriggling out of the gap.
+
+"Look, there it is!" Lila said.
+
+She grabbed the worm and put it in her bucket. She smiled and thanked Tom.
+
+"You're welcome, Lila," he said. "But you know, worms don't like to be in buckets. They like to be in the earth. They need air and water and food. If you keep them in the bucket, they will die."
+
+Lila looked at the worm. She saw it curl up and stop moving. She felt sorry for it. She did not want to hurt it. She wanted to play with it.
+
+"Can I put it back in the earth?" she asked.
+
+"Sure, you can," Tom said. "That's the best thing to do. Then it will be happy and healthy. And maybe you can see it again another day."
+
+Lila nodded. She took the worm out of the bucket and put it gently in the hole. She covered it with some earth and patted it softly.
+
+"Bye, worm," she said. "Have fun in the earth. Maybe we can be friends later."
+
+She looked at Tom and smiled. She was glad he helped her. She realized that sometimes she needed help from others. She was independent, but she was not alone.
+
+She hugged Tom and said, "Thank you, Tom. You're a good brother."
+
+Tom hugged her back and said, "You're welcome, Lila. You're a good sister."
+Lily and Ben like to play with their dog Spot. Spot is a big, brown dog with a white spot on his nose. He likes to run, jump and bark with the children.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben find a rope in the yard. They think it is a fun toy for Spot. They tie one end of the rope to a tree and the other end to Spot's collar. Then they call Spot and throw a ball for him.
+
+Spot runs after the ball, but he does not see the rope. He pulls the rope hard and twists his neck. He yelps and falls down. Lily and Ben run to him and see that he is hurt. They are very sad and sorry.
+
+They untie the rope and hug Spot. They say, "Poor Spot, we are sorry. We did not mean to hurt you. We love you, Spot." They bring him some water and a treat. They stroke his fur and kiss his nose.
+
+Spot feels better and wags his tail. He licks their faces and barks. He forgives them and still loves them. They are happy and relieved. They decide to never play with the rope again. They play with Spot's toys instead. They have fun and take good care of Spot.
+Sara and Tom were playing with a big red ball in the park. They liked to bounce the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they bounced it very high and it went over the fence. Then they had to run and get it back.
+
+One day, when they were bouncing the ball, they felt the ground shake. It was an earthquake. The ball bounced away from them and rolled down the hill. They saw cracks in the road and people screaming. They were scared and held each other.
+
+"Where is our ball?" Sara asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is gone," Tom said.
+
+They saw an elderly lady sitting on a bench. She looked calm and smiled at them. She had a cane and a hat.
+
+"Hello, children. Are you okay?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, we are okay. But we lost our ball. It was our favorite ball," Sara said.
+
+The lady nodded. She pointed to a tree. "Look, there is your ball. It bounced up and got stuck in the branches. Do you want me to help you get it?"
+
+Sara and Tom looked at the tree. They saw their ball. They were happy.
+
+"Yes, please. Thank you, lady," Tom said.
+
+The lady got up and walked to the tree. She used her cane to poke the ball. It bounced down and landed in Sara's arms.
+
+"Here you go, children. Now you can play again. But be careful. The earthquake might come back," she said.
+
+Sara and Tom hugged the lady. They thanked her again. They bounced the ball to each other and smiled. They were not scared anymore. They had their ball and a new friend.
+Tom and Sue were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big snowman in the park. It had a hat, a scarf, a carrot nose and two buttons for eyes.
+
+"Wow, look at the snowman!" Tom said. "He is so big and nice!"
+
+"Let's go and say hello to him," Sue said. "Maybe he wants to play with us."
+
+They ran to the snowman and hugged him. The snowman was cold and hard, but they did not mind. They smiled and talked to him.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Snowman," Tom said. "We are Tom and Sue. What is your name?"
+
+The snowman did not answer. He just stared at them with his button eyes.
+
+"Maybe he is shy," Sue said. "Or maybe he is too old to talk. He looks very old, don't you think?"
+
+"Yes, he does," Tom said. "But he is also very generous. Look, he has a hat and a scarf. Maybe he will share them with us. It is very cold today."
+
+Tom reached for the hat and Sue reached for the scarf. But as soon as they touched them, something bad happened. The snowman came to life and grabbed them with his stick arms. He was not a nice snowman. He was a mean and angry snowman.
+
+"Let go of us!" Tom and Sue cried. "Help! Help!"
+
+But no one heard them. The snowman was too strong and too fast. He dragged them into his big mouth and ate them. He did not like children. He only liked snow.
+
+The snowman smiled and burped. He felt warm and full. He put his hat and scarf back on and froze again. He looked like a normal snowman, but he was not. He was a monster. And he waited for more children to come and play with him.
+Sara did not want to go to bed. She wanted to play with her toys and watch TV. She said to her mom, "No bed, no bed! More play, more TV!"
+
+Her mom said, "Sara, it is late. You need to sleep. Bed is good for you. Bed is soft and warm. You can have your teddy bear and your blanket. Come on, let's go to bed."
+
+Sara shook her head and stamped her feet. She said, "No, no, no! I demand more play, more TV! I don't like bed. Bed is boring and dark. I don't want teddy bear and blanket. I want toys and TV!"
+
+Her mom sighed and picked up Sara. She said, "Sara, you are being naughty. You cannot demand things. You have to listen to me. I am your mom. I know what is best for you. Bed is not boring and dark. Bed is where you have sweet dreams. You can play with your toys and watch TV tomorrow. But now, you have to sleep."
+
+She carried Sara to her room and put her on her bed. She gave her a kiss and said, "I love you, Sara. Good night. Sleep tight. Don't let the bed bugs bite."
+
+Sara pouted and said, "I love you, mom. But I still don't like bed."
+
+She closed her eyes and hugged her teddy bear. She felt the soft blanket on her skin. She heard her mom sing a lullaby. She smelled her mom's perfume. She started to feel sleepy and calm. She thought, "Maybe bed is not so bad. Maybe bed is nice. Maybe I will have sweet dreams. Maybe I will play with my toys and watch TV tomorrow."
+
+She smiled and said, "Good night, mom. Good night, teddy bear. Good night, bed."
+
+She fell asleep and had sweet dreams.
+Jenny was sad. She had a big cut on her knee from falling down. It hurt a lot and it was red and wet. Mommy put a band-aid on it and gave her a hug, but Jenny still felt gloomy.
+
+"Can I play with my dolls?" Jenny asked Mommy.
+
+"Not right now, sweetie. You need to rest and let your knee heal. Why don't you read a book or watch some cartoons?" Mommy said.
+
+Jenny did not want to read or watch. She wanted to play. She looked around her room and saw her cabinet. She had many toys and games in her cabinet. Maybe she could find something fun to do.
+
+She got up from her bed and limped to her cabinet. She opened the door and reached for a box. But she was too short and the box was too high. She stretched her arm and stood on her toes, but she still could not reach it.
+
+She felt something slip under her foot and she lost her balance. She fell down again and hit her head on the cabinet. She cried out loud and felt a bump on her forehead.
+
+Mommy heard her cry and ran to her room. She saw Jenny on the floor, holding her head and her knee. She picked her up and hugged her.
+
+"Oh, Jenny, what happened? Are you okay?" Mommy asked.
+
+"I wanted to play, but I fell down and hurt myself again," Jenny sobbed.
+
+Mommy kissed her head and her knee and said, "I'm sorry, honey. You need to be careful and stay in bed. You have two boo-boos now. But don't worry, they will heal soon. I love you very much."
+
+She carried Jenny back to her bed and tucked her in. She gave her a teddy bear and a glass of water. She turned on the lamp and said, "How about I read you a story? Would you like that?"
+
+Jenny nodded and smiled a little. She liked stories. She snuggled with her teddy bear and listened to Mommy's voice. She felt warm and safe. She forgot about her pain and her gloom. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
+Tim and Lily were adventurous kids. They liked to explore new places and try new things. One day, they found a big board near the river. It was long and wide and flat.
+
+"Let's play with the board!" Tim said. "We can use it as a boat and sail on the water."
+
+Lily was not sure. She looked at the river. It was fast and deep and noisy. She was scared of the water.
+
+"I don't know, Tim," she said. "The water looks dangerous. Maybe we should not play with the board."
+
+But Tim did not listen. He was too excited. He dragged the board to the edge of the river and jumped on it. He called to Lily.
+
+"Come on, Lily, don't be afraid. It's fun. Trust me!"
+
+Lily did not want to disappoint Tim. She wanted to be adventurous too. She trusted Tim. She stepped on the board with him. But as soon as she did, the board slipped and floated away. Tim and Lily screamed. They had no control over the board. It was moving too fast. They saw rocks and branches and rapids ahead. They were in trouble.
+
+Luckily, a fisherman saw them. He was in a real boat with a paddle. He quickly rowed to them and helped them get off the board. He brought them to the shore and checked if they were okay. They were wet and cold and scared, but not hurt.
+
+The fisherman was angry. He scolded Tim and Lily.
+
+"What were you thinking, kids? That board is not a boat. It's not safe. You could have drowned or hit something. You should never play with things you don't know near the water. You should always be careful and listen to your friends who are afraid. They might be right."
+
+Tim and Lily felt ashamed. They realized they had been foolish and reckless. They apologized to the fisherman and thanked him for saving them. They learned a lesson. They learned that being adventurous is good, but being smart and safe is better. They learned that trust is important, but so is caution. They learned that sometimes, fear is a friend, not an enemy.
+Lily was a curious girl who liked to explore. Today, she went to the park with her mom and saw a big pond with ducks and fish. She wanted to see them closer, so she ran to the edge of the pond and leaned over.
+
+"Be careful, Lily!" her mom called. "Don't fall in the water!"
+
+Lily nodded, but she was too busy looking at the ducks and fish. She saw a shiny coin at the bottom of the pond and reached for it. But as soon as she touched it, it vanished!
+
+"Where did it go?" Lily asked, surprised.
+
+"It was a magic coin, Lily," a voice said behind her. Lily turned around and saw a man with a long beard and a hat. He was holding a wand and smiling.
+
+"Who are you?" Lily asked, curious.
+
+"I'm a magician, Lily. I like to make things vanish and appear. Do you want to see some more magic?" the man asked.
+
+Lily nodded, excited. She liked magic. The man waved his wand and made a balloon, a flower, and a rabbit appear. He gave them to Lily and she thanked him.
+
+"You're welcome, Lily. But remember, magic is not always what it seems. Sometimes, things that vanish can come back, and things that appear can disappear. Be careful what you wish for, Lily," the man said, and winked.
+
+Then, he vanished too, leaving Lily with the balloon, the flower, and the rabbit. Lily was amazed and happy. She ran back to her mom and showed her the gifts.
+
+"Wow, Lily, where did you get these?" her mom asked.
+
+"From a magician, mom. He made a coin vanish and then he gave me these. He was very nice, but he said magic is not always what it seems. What does that mean, mom?" Lily asked.
+
+Her mom looked puzzled and curious. She did not see any magician in the park. She wondered if Lily was making up a story or if she really met a magic man. She hugged Lily and said, "I don't know, Lily. But I'm glad you had fun today. Let's go home and have some cookies, okay?"
+
+Lily agreed and smiled. She liked cookies. She also liked magic. She wondered if she would see the magician again. She hoped so. She had many questions for him. She was a curious girl.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with round balls in the park. They can kick, throw and catch the balls. They have fun together.
+
+One day, a big boy comes to the park. He sees Anna and Ben's balls. He wants to play with them. He says, "Give me your balls. They are mine now."
+
+Anna and Ben are scared. They do not want to give their balls to the big boy. They say, "No, these are our balls. We are playing with them. Go away."
+
+The big boy is angry. He tries to grab the balls from Anna and Ben. He pushes them and shouts at them. He is mean.
+
+Anna and Ben are brave. They do not let the big boy take their balls. They hold their balls tight and run away. They remain independent. They find a new place to play. They are happy.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play and have fun. One day, they see a big sign. The sign says: "Come to the circus! See the clowns, the animals, the tricks! Only five tickets left!"
+
+Tom and Anna want to go to the circus. They think it will be good. They run to their moms and ask for money. Their moms give them some money and say: "Be careful and have fun!"
+
+Tom and Anna hurry to the circus. They see a man with a hat. He has the tickets. Tom and Anna give him the money and get two tickets. They are happy. They say: "Thank you, mister!"
+
+The man with the hat smiles and says: "You're welcome, kids! Enjoy the show!"
+

+Sam and Mia like to play with blocks. They make big structures with many colors. They are happy and proud of their work.
+
+One day, a new boy comes to play. His name is Ben. He looks at Sam and Mia's structures and says, "I want them. They are light and pretty. I will take them."
+
+Sam and Mia say, "No, Ben. These are ours. We made them. You can make your own. There are more blocks."
+
+But Ben does not listen. He is mean and greedy. He pushes Sam and Mia away and takes their structures. He breaks them and throws them on the floor. He laughs and says, "Now they are mine. You can't have them."
+
+Sam and Mia are sad and angry. They cry and shout, "Ben, you are bad. You are not our friend. Go away. We don't like you."
+
+But Ben does not care. He keeps playing with the broken blocks. He does not share or say sorry. He is alone and happy.
+Ben and Sam are brothers. They like to play outside in the snow. They make snowmen and snowballs and have fun. But today, it is very cold and windy. Mom says they have to wear hats and gloves and coats. Ben and Sam do not like that. They think it is boring.
+
+They go outside anyway. They try to make a snowman, but the snow is too hard. They try to throw snowballs, but the wind blows them away. They are not having fun. They are cold and sad.
+
+Ben has an idea. He sees a big hill. He says to Sam, "Let's slide down the hill. It will be fun." Sam agrees. They find a big piece of cardboard. They seat on it and push off. They go very fast down the hill. They laugh and scream.
+
+But then, they see a problem. There is a fence at the bottom of the hill. They cannot stop. They crash into the fence. The cardboard breaks. Ben and Sam fall off. They are not hurt, but they are scared. And they lose their gloves. The gloves fly over the fence and land in a yard. They cannot get them back.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She comes outside. She sees Ben and Sam. She is angry. She says, "What were you doing? You could have been hurt. And where are your gloves? You need them. It is too cold." Ben and Sam are sorry. They say, "We were bored. We wanted to have fun. We lost our gloves. We are sorry." Mom hugs them. She says, "I know you were bored. But you have to be careful. And you have to listen to me. Come on, let's go inside. I have some hot chocolate for you. And I have some extra gloves. Maybe next time, you can play something else." Ben and Sam nod. They follow Mom inside. They are warm and happy. They learned their lesson. They say, "Thank you, Mom. We love you." Mom smiles. She says, "I love you too."
+Lily and Sam love to play hockey. They have hockey sticks and a ball. They play in the park with their friends. They are good at hockey.
+
+One day, a new boy comes to the park. His name is Max. He has a big hockey stick and a shiny helmet. He says he is the best at hockey. He wants to test Lily and Sam.
+
+"Let's play a game," he says. "If you score a goal, you win. If I score a goal, I win. The winner gets my helmet."
+
+Lily and Sam look at his helmet. It is very nice. They are envious. They want to have it. They agree to play the game.
+
+Max goes first. He runs with the ball and hits it hard. It flies past Lily and Sam and into the goal. He laughs and says, "I win! I am the best! Give me your sticks!"
+
+Lily and Sam are sad. They give him their sticks. They have no hockey sticks and no helmet. They have nothing to play with.
+
+Max puts on his helmet and holds their sticks. He says, "Bye, losers!" He runs away.
+
+Lily and Sam look at each other. They are angry. They want their sticks back. They want to play hockey. They want to have fun.
+
+They run after Max. They catch him. They take their sticks back. They say, "You are not the best! You are mean! You cheated! We don't want your helmet!"
+
+They leave Max alone. He has no friends. He has no fun. He is sad.
+
+Lily and Sam go back to the park. They play hockey with their friends. They are happy. They are good at hockey.
+Tim and Anna are playing in the park. They see a big slide. They want to go on the slide, but there is a problem. The slide has a lock. To open the lock, they need a coin.
+
+"Look, Tim, there is a coin on the ground!" Anna says. She picks up the coin and runs to the slide. She puts the coin in the lock and turns it. The lock makes a click sound. The slide is open.
+
+"Yay, Anna, you did it!" Tim says. He follows Anna to the slide. They climb up the stairs and sit on the slide. They hold hands and smile.
+
+"Are you ready, Tim?" Anna asks.
+
+"Yes, Anna, I am ready!" Tim answers.
+
+They slide down the slide. They feel the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They laugh and have fun. They are happy and safe.
+Tom and Mia liked to look at the stars at night. They had a big book with pictures of stars and planets. They learned many names and shapes. One night, they saw something new in the sky. It was a bright ball with a long tail. It moved very fast.
+
+"What is that?" Tom asked.
+
+"It is a comet," Mia said. She remembered the word from the book. "It is a big rock with ice and dust. It comes from far away. Sometimes it goes near the sun and makes a tail."
+
+"Wow, it is so pretty," Tom said. "Can we catch it?"
+
+"No, it is too high and too fast," Mia said. "But we can make a wish. Maybe it will come true."
+
+Tom and Mia closed their eyes and made a wish. They wished for more books and toys. They liked to read and play. They hoped the comet would supply them with what they wanted.
+
+They opened their eyes and smiled. They hugged each other and thanked the comet. They did not know if their wish would come true, but they felt happy and lucky. They watched the comet until it disappeared. They thought it was a wild and wonderful thing. They went to bed and dreamed of stars and comets.
+Ben and Mia were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers. They had a big jar to keep their finds. Ben saw a shiny thing under a leaf. He picked it up and put it in the jar.
+
+"What is that?" Mia asked.
+
+"I don't know. Let's examine it," Ben said.
+
+They took the jar inside and put it on the table. They looked at the shiny thing. It was round and had a hole in the middle. It had some letters on it.
+
+"It looks like a ring," Mia said.
+
+"Maybe it is a magic ring," Ben said.
+
+They tried to read the letters, but they were too hard. They asked their mom for help.
+
+Mom looked at the ring and smiled. She took it out of the jar and put it on her finger.
+
+"Where did you find this?" she asked.
+
+"In the garden, under a leaf," Ben said.
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "This is a very special ring. It was your grandma's ring. She gave it to me when I married your dad. I lost it a long time ago. I thought I would never see it again. You found my True ring!"
+
+Ben and Mia were happy. They had given mom a warm gift. They felt warm too. They had found a magic ring. A ring of love.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park with their mom. They saw a big fire truck with red lights and loud noises. They wanted to see what was happening.
+
+"Mom, can we go there?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, it's not safe. There is a fire in the house. We have to stay away," Mom said.
+
+"But I want to see the fire truck!" Lily said.
+
+She ran towards the fire truck, but Mom caught her and held her tight.
+
+"Lily, you have to listen to me. The fire is very hot and dangerous. It can hurt you and make you sick. See the black stuff in the air? That is ash. It is bad for your lungs. We have to stay here and wait until the fire is out," Mom explained.
+
+Lily pouted and tried to wiggle out of Mom's arms.
+
+"I don't care. I want to see the fire truck. It is cool and shiny. Please, Mom, please!" Lily insisted.
+
+Mom shook her head and hugged Lily.
+
+"No, Lily, I'm sorry. I know you like the fire truck, but it is not a toy. It is a tool to help the firefighters. They are brave and strong. They are trying to save the house and the people inside. We have to respect them and let them do their job. Maybe another day we can see a fire truck up close, but not today. Today we have to be safe and smart," Mom said.
+
+Ben nodded and held Mom's hand.
+
+"I understand, Mom. I don't want to get hurt or sick. I want to be brave and strong like the firefighters. Can we say thank you to them when they are done?" Ben asked.
+
+Mom smiled and kissed Ben's cheek.
+
+"Of course, Ben. That is very kind and polite of you. I'm proud of you and Lily. You are both good kids. Now let's go sit on that bench and watch from a distance. Maybe we can have some ice cream later, okay?" Mom suggested.
+
+Ben and Lily agreed and followed Mom to the bench. They watched the fire truck and the firefighters with curiosity and admiration. They hoped the fire would be out soon and everyone would be okay. They also hoped for some ice cream.
+Sara and Ben like to help Mom make salad. They wash the green leaves and the red tomatoes. They tear the leaves into small pieces. They cut the tomatoes with a safe knife. They put everything in a big bowl.
+
+Mom says, "Now we need some dressing for the salad. Can you get the bottle from the fridge?" Sara and Ben run to the fridge. They look for the bottle. They see a clear bottle with yellow liquid. They think it is dressing. They take it out and bring it to Mom.
+
+Mom looks at the bottle. She says, "Oh no, this is not dressing. This is vinegar. It is very sour and strong. It will make the salad taste bad. We need to find the dressing. It is in a white bottle with green letters."
+
+Sara and Ben feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We did not know. We will find the dressing." They run back to the fridge. They look for the white bottle with green letters. They find it and bring it to Mom.
+
+Mom smiles and says, "Thank you, Sara and Ben. You are very good helpers. Now we can finish the salad. We will add some dressing and some cheese. Then we can eat it with some bread and butter. It will be yummy."
+
+Sara and Ben are happy. They say, "We love salad. We love Mom." They hug Mom and help her set the table. They enjoy the salad and the bread and butter. They say, "This is the best salad ever." Mom says, "You are the best children ever." They all laugh and have a good time.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big box under a tree. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Maybe it is a toy," Lily says.
+
+"Maybe it is a cake," Tom says.
+
+They open the box. They see a lot of shiny things. They are coins and jewels. They are very pretty.
+
+"Wow, we are rich!" Lily says.
+
+"Shh, it is a secret," Tom says. "We have to hide it."
+
+They look around. They see a hole in the ground. They put the box in the hole. They cover it with dirt and leaves.
+
+"Nobody will find it here," Tom says.
+
+They smile at each other. They are happy. They have a nice secret.
+
+They hear a loud noise. It is a man. He is angry. He has a stick. He is looking for the box.
+
+"Where is my treasure?" he yells. "Who took it?"
+
+He sees Lily and Tom. He runs towards them. He raises his stick. He wants to strike them.
+
+Lily and Tom are scared. They run away. They scream for help.
+
+A dog hears them. It is a big dog. It is a nice dog. It barks at the man. It bites his leg.
+
+The man drops his stick. He cries in pain. He runs away.
+
+The dog wags its tail. It licks Lily and Tom. It is their friend.
+
+"Thank you, dog," Lily says.
+
+"You are a hero, dog," Tom says.
+
+They hug the dog. They are safe. They have a nice secret and a nice friend.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with toys and watch TV. One day, their mom says, "We are going to the zoo today. You can see many animals there." Tom and Sam are happy. They want to see the lions, the monkeys, and the elephants.
+
+At the zoo, they see many animals. They see the lions roar, the monkeys swing, and the elephants spray water. They have fun. But then, they see a big pool with some gray animals. Their mom says, "These are seals. They can swim and dive and clap their flippers." Tom and Sam look at the seals. They see them swim and dive and clap their flippers. But they are not impressed. They think the seals are boring.
+
+"Mom, can we go see something else?" Tom asks. "The seals are boring. They do the same thing over and over."
+
+"Yeah, mom, the seals are boring. They are not fun like the other animals." Sam agrees.
+
+Their mom smiles. She says, "The seals are not boring. They are smart and playful. They can do tricks and learn new things. Maybe they are just tired or hungry right now. Why don't you try to wave at them and see what they do?"
+
+Tom and Sam are curious. They wave at the seals. To their surprise, the seals wave back at them. They also make funny noises and splash water. Tom and Sam laugh. They think the seals are funny. They wave more and more. The seals wave more and more. They have fun.
+
+"Mom, the seals are not boring. They are funny. They are like us. They can wave and talk and play." Tom says.
+
+"Yeah, mom, the seals are not boring. They are cool. They are like friends. They can swim and dive and clap their flippers." Sam says.
+
+Their mom nods. She says, "The seals are not boring. They are amazing. They are like family. They can love and care and share." She hugs Tom and Sam. They hug her back. They are happy. They like the seals.
+Ben had a big problem. His ear hurt a lot. He could not hear well. He did not like to play or read or watch TV. He only wanted to sleep and cry.
+
+Mom took him to the doctor. The doctor looked at his ear and said, "You have an infection. You need an operation. It will make your ear better. Do you want to do it?"
+
+Ben was scared. He did not know what an operation was. He did not want to go to the hospital. He did not want to leave Mom. He shook his head and said, "No, no, no!"
+
+Mom hugged him and said, "It's OK, Ben. I will be with you. The operation is not bad. It is like a nap. You will sleep and the doctor will fix your ear. When you wake up, you will feel much better. You will hear well and play and read and watch TV again. Trust me, Ben. I love you."
+
+Ben looked at Mom. He saw that she was calm and kind. He wanted to trust her. He wanted to feel better. He nodded and said, "OK, Mom. I will do it. But can you tell me a story before the operation?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Of course, Ben. I will tell you your favorite story. The one about the lion and the mouse. Come on, let's go."
+
+Ben held Mom's hand and walked with her. He was still scared, but he was also eager. He wanted to hear the story. He wanted to hear the lion roar and the mouse squeak. He wanted to hear Mom's voice. He wanted to hear everything.
+Tom and Lily like to play with their toy trains. They have a big track that goes around the room. They make the trains go fast and slow, and make noises like choo-choo and beep-beep.
+
+One day, Mom says they have to clean up their track. She says it is time for lunch and they have to put away their toys. Tom and Lily do not want to stop playing. They say, "Please, Mom, can we play a little more?"
+
+Mom says, "No, you have to eat now. You can play again after lunch. But you have to clean up your track first. It is too messy and someone can trip on it."
+
+Tom and Lily are sad and angry. They do not like to clean up. They think it is boring and hard. They say, "No, Mom, we do not want to clean up. We want to play. You are mean and do not allow us to have fun."
+
+Mom says, "That is not nice to say. I am not mean. I love you and I want you to be healthy and safe. Cleaning up is part of playing. You have to take care of your toys and your room. If you do not clean up, you will lose your toys and your track. Do you want that?"
+
+Tom and Lily think for a moment. They do not want to lose their toys and their track. They like them very much. They say, "No, Mom, we do not want that. We are sorry for being rude. We will clean up our track now. Can you help us?"
+
+Mom says, "Yes, I can help you. I am glad you are sorry and you will clean up. That is very good of you. You are my smart and sweet children. Come on, let's do it together. It will not take long. And then we can have lunch and play some more."
+
+Tom and Lily smile and hug Mom. They say, "Thank you, Mom. We love you. You are the best." They start to pick up their trains and their track. They put them in a big box. They make a game out of it. They see who can find the most pieces and who can make the neatest pile. They have fun and they finish quickly. They are proud of their work.
+
+Mom says, "Wow, you did a great job. I am very proud of you too. You have a very nice track and very nice trains. You are very lucky to have them. And I am very lucky to have you. Now, let's go and have some lunch. I made your favorite sandwiches and juice. And I have a surprise for you too."
+
+Tom and Lily say, "What is the surprise, Mom?"
+
+Mom says, "You will see. Come on, follow me."
+
+Tom and Lily follow Mom to the kitchen. They are curious and excited. They wonder what the surprise is. They hope it is something fun and yummy. They are happy and hungry. They love their Mom and their track and their trains. They are having a good day.
+Mia and Ben were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a man selling peaches from a big cart. The peaches looked juicy and sweet, and Mia and Ben wanted to try one.
+
+"Can we have a peach, please?" they asked the man.
+
+"Sure, you can have a peach, but you have to pay me one coin for each one," the man said.
+
+Mia and Ben looked at each other. They did not have any coins. They only had a toy car and a doll that they brought from home.
+
+"Can we pay you with our toys?" Mia asked.
+
+The man shook his head. "No, I only take coins. I need coins to buy more peaches and other things."
+
+Mia and Ben felt sad. They really wanted a peach, but they had no coins. They turned to leave, but then they saw a kind lady sitting on a bench. She had a big purse and a smile on her face.
+
+"Hello, children. Do you want a peach?" she asked.
+
+Mia and Ben nodded. They told her that they had no coins to pay the man.
+
+The kind lady smiled. She took out two coins from her purse and gave them to Mia and Ben.
+
+"Here, you can have these coins. You can pay the man and get a peach. I have plenty of coins, and I don't need a peach. I like to share with others."
+
+Mia and Ben thanked the kind lady. They ran to the man and gave him the coins. The man gave them each a peach. They bit into the peaches and felt the juice run down their chins. They were the best peaches they ever had.
+
+They ran back to the kind lady and gave her a hug. They also gave her their toy car and doll.
+
+"Thank you for the coins. We want to give you our toys. You can play with them or give them to someone else. We like to share, too."
+
+The kind lady hugged them back. She was happy to see their smiles. She took their toys and put them in her purse.
+
+"You're welcome, children. You are very kind and generous. I'm glad you enjoyed the peaches. Have a nice day."
+
+Mia and Ben waved goodbye to the kind lady. They went back to the park and played with their peaches. They felt happy and grateful. They learned that sharing is good and that kindness pays off.
+Jill and Ben were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big snowman in the park. He had a hat, a scarf, and a muffin for a nose.
+
+"Let's say hello to the snowman!" Jill said.
+
+"OK, but be careful. He might be cold and icy," Ben said.
+
+They ran to the snowman and gave him a hug. The snowman smiled and said, "Hello, little ones. I'm glad you came to visit me. Do you like my muffin nose?"
+
+"Yes, it looks yummy!" Jill said.
+
+"Can we have a bite?" Ben asked.
+
+The snowman laughed and said, "Sure, you can have a bite. But only a small one. If you eat too much, I might lose my nose."
+
+Jill and Ben nodded and took a tiny bite of the muffin. It was sweet and soft. They thanked the snowman and said goodbye.
+
+The next day, they came back to the park. But they could not find the snowman. He was gone. All they saw was a hat, a scarf, and a half-eaten muffin on the ground.
+
+"What happened to the snowman?" Jill asked.
+
+"I think he melted," Ben said. "It was too warm and sunny today."
+
+They felt sad and sorry. They wished they had not eaten his nose. They realized they had been greedy and selfish.
+
+They picked up the hat, the scarf, and the muffin. They decided to make a new snowman when it snowed again. And they promised to give him a different nose. Maybe a carrot or a button.
+
+They learned to be kind and respectful to others. And they never forgot their friend, the snowman.
+Anna and Ben were going to the zoo with their mom. They were very happy and excited. They wanted to see the lions, the monkeys, and the penguins. Mom gave them each a ticket and said, "You can choose one animal to feed. Which one do you want?"
+
+Anna thought for a moment and said, "I want to feed the penguins. They are so cute and funny. They slide on the ice and swim in the water."
+
+Ben said, "I want to feed the monkeys. They are so smart and playful. They swing on the vines and make funny noises."
+
+Mom said, "OK, let's go then. But first, we have to wait in line. There are many people who want to go to the zoo today."
+
+Anna and Ben were restless. They did not like to wait. They looked around and saw many things. They saw a big sign with the zoo map. They saw a man selling balloons and popcorn. They saw a girl with a face painting of a tiger. They saw a boy with a hat that looked like a zebra.
+
+They said to mom, "Mom, can we have a balloon? Can we have popcorn? Can we have a face painting? Can we have a hat?"
+
+Mom said, "No, not now. We have to save our money for the animal food. And we have to stay in line. It's almost our turn. Be patient, please."
+
+Anna and Ben sighed. They wanted to have fun. They wanted to feed the animals. They hoped the line would move faster. They held their tickets tightly and waited.
+Mia and Ben like to play outside. They have a big yard with a swing, a slide and a sandbox. They also have a dog named Spot, who is very friendly and reliable. He always comes when they call him and he likes to chase balls and sticks.
+
+One day, they see dark clouds in the sky. They hear a loud noise like a drum. They feel drops of water on their faces. It is raining! They run inside the house with Spot. They do not like the rain. It makes them wet and cold.
+
+They look for something to do inside. They find a big box of crayons and paper. They decide to draw images of what they like. Mia draws an image of a flower, a butterfly and a rainbow. Ben draws an image of a car, a rocket and a dinosaur. They show each other their images and say what they are.
+
+"Look, this is a flower. It is pink and pretty. And this is a butterfly. It is yellow and has spots. And this is a rainbow. It has many colors and it comes after the rain." Mia says.
+
+"Wow, those are nice images. Look, this is a car. It is red and fast. And this is a rocket. It can fly to the moon. And this is a dinosaur. It is green and big and scary." Ben says.
+
+They hear a knock on the door. It is their mom. She has an umbrella and a smile. She says the rain has stopped and they can go outside again. They are happy. They grab their coats and shoes and run outside with Spot. They see a rainbow in the sky. They point at it and say "Look, a rainbow!" They laugh and play under the rainbow. They like the rain after all. It makes the rainbow.
+Sam had a goat. He liked his goat very much. He gave his goat grass and water every day. He also brushed his goat's fur and played with him. His goat was white and soft and had horns.
+
+One day, a man came to Sam's farm. He saw Sam's goat and said, "What a nice goat you have! I want to buy your goat. I will give you ten coins for your goat."
+
+Sam was surprised and angry. He said, "No, you cannot have my goat. He is my goat. I own him. He is my friend. Go away!"
+
+The man was ignorant. He did not listen to Sam. He said, "You are a silly boy. You do not need a goat. You can buy many things with ten coins. Give me your goat now or I will take him by force."
+
+The man tried to grab Sam's goat by the rope. But Sam's goat was not afraid. He used his horns and pushed the man away. The man fell down and hurt his nose. He ran away, crying and bleeding.
+
+Sam hugged his goat and said, "You are a brave goat. I am proud of you. You are my goat. I own you. You are my friend. I love you."
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a big hill in the park. They want to walk to the top and see what is there.
+
+"Can we go, mom? Can we go, dad?" they ask.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. It is a long walk and the hill is steep," mom says.
+
+"OK, we will. Come on, Ben!" Anna says.
+
+They hold hands and start to walk. They see many things on the way: flowers, birds, bugs, rocks. They stop to look at them and talk to them.
+
+"Hello, flower. You are pretty. What is your name?" Anna says.
+
+"Hello, bird. You are fast. Where are you going?" Ben says.
+
+They keep walking and walking. They get tired and thirsty. They see a small stream near the hill. They go to the stream and drink some water. They find a spoon on the ground. They wonder who left it there.
+
+"Maybe someone was having a picnic and forgot it," Anna says.
+
+"Maybe it is a magic spoon and can make wishes come true," Ben says.
+
+They take turns holding the spoon and making wishes. They wish for candy, toys, books, and more.
+
+They hear mom and dad calling them. They look up and see them waving from the bottom of the hill. They are very distant. They wave back and start to walk down.
+
+"Did you have fun, kids?" mom asks.
+
+"Yes, we did. We saw many things and we found a spoon," Anna says.
+
+"A spoon? What did you do with it?" dad asks.
+
+"We made wishes with it. It is a magic spoon," Ben says.
+
+They show mom and dad the spoon. Mom and dad smile and hug them.
+
+"That is a very special spoon. Maybe it will make your wishes come true. But you know what? You already have the best thing you can wish for: each other," mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben nod and hug each other. They are happy. They walk home with mom and dad, holding the spoon and their hands.

+
+Mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw them fighting over the car. She was not happy.
+
+"Stop it, both of you!" Mom said. "You need to share and be nice. Repeat after me: I will share and be nice."
+
+Lily and Ben looked at Mom with their big eyes. They did not want to be in trouble. They repeated after Mom: "I will share and be nice."
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. She gave them each a cookie. The cookie was sweet and yummy.
+
+"See, sharing and being nice is better than fighting and being bitter," Mom said. "Now, can you play together nicely?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and said sorry to each other. They decided to take turns with the car and the doll. They played together nicely and had more fun. They were happy and Mom was proud.
+Lily loved to spend time with her daddy. He was very busy with his work, so it was rare that they could play together. Sometimes, he would take her to the park, or read her a book, or make her a snack. Lily was always happy when her daddy was home.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big box in the living room. She asked her daddy what was inside. He said it was a surprise for her birthday. Lily was curious and excited. She wanted to see the surprise right away. She asked her daddy if she could open the box. He said no, she had to wait until her birthday.
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She did not want to wait. She wanted to spend time with her daddy and the surprise. She thought he was being mean and unfair. She decided to open the box when he was not looking. She sneaked into the living room and lifted the lid.
+
+Inside the box, there was a beautiful doll. It had long hair, a pretty dress, and shiny shoes. Lily gasped. She loved the doll. She wanted to hug it and play with it. She reached for the doll, but then she heard her daddy's voice.
+
+"Lily, what are you doing?" he asked, sounding upset. He had seen her from the kitchen. He walked into the living room and saw the open box and the doll. He looked at Lily with a sad and angry face. He said, "Lily, you disobeyed me. You spoiled the surprise. You were not supposed to open the box until your birthday. How could you do this?"
+
+Lily felt scared and sorry. She realized she had made a mistake. She had hurt her daddy's feelings. She had ruined the rare and special gift he had bought for her. She started to cry. She said, "I'm sorry, daddy. I was curious and excited. I wanted to see the surprise. I wanted to spend time with you and the doll. I didn't mean to be bad. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+Her daddy sighed. He was disappointed and hurt, but he also loved his daughter. He knew she was young and impulsive. He knew she did not understand the value of the gift and the meaning of the surprise. He decided to forgive her and teach her a lesson. He said, "Lily, I love you, but you have to learn to listen and wait. The surprise was meant to make you happy, not sad. The doll was meant to be a reward, not a punishment. You have to respect my rules and my wishes. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "I understand, daddy. I'm sorry, daddy. I love you, daddy." She hugged him and said, "Thank you for the doll. It's beautiful. Can we still play with it?"
+
+Her daddy smiled. He said, "Yes, we can still play with it. But only after you clean up the mess and apologize to your mommy. And next time, when I say no, you have to say okay. Deal?"
+
+Lily said, "Deal, daddy. Thank you, daddy. You're the best daddy." She kissed him and said, "Happy birthday to me."

+
+Tom has an idea. He says, "Let's destroy the big rock. Let's break it into small pieces. Then we can play with the pieces." Sam likes the idea. He says, "Yes, let's destroy the big rock. How can we do it?"
+
+They look around and see a stick. They pick up the stick and hit the big rock with it. But the stick breaks and the big rock does not. They look around and see a metal can.

+Suddenly, a squirrel comes. The squirrel is hungry and angry. It sees the peanuts on the ground. It thinks Tom and Lily are stealing its food. It runs to the branch and bites Lily's leg.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Lily cries. "The squirrel is biting me! Help!"
+
+Tom sees the squirrel and gets scared. He throws his peanuts at the squirrel and shouts, "Go away! Go away!"
+
+The squirrel stops biting Lily and runs away. It takes the peanuts with it. Tom and Lily climb down the tree and hug each other.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom," Lily says. "I was wrong. Peanuts are not weird. They are nice and useful. They can make the squirrel go away."
+
+"It's okay, Lily," Tom says. "I'm sorry, too. I should have shared my peanuts with you. They are better than candy."
+
+Tom and Lily learn a lesson. They learn to be grateful for what they have and to share with others. They also learn to respect the animals and their food. They go home and tell their moms what happened. Their moms are proud of them and give them a hug.
+Lily and Tom like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make noises like vroom and beep and zoom. They pretend to be drivers and go to many places.
+
+One day, they play outside in the mud. They make their cars dirty and muddy. They have fun, but they forget to clean their cars. They leave them on the grass and go inside for lunch.
+
+Mom sees the dirty cars and is not happy. She tells Lily and Tom to come outside and clean their cars. She says they are foolish to leave their cars in the mud. She gives them a bucket of water and a cloth.
+
+Lily and Tom are sorry. They say they are sorry to Mom and to their cars. They clean their cars with the water and the cloth. They make them shiny and bright again. They say they will not leave their cars in the mud again.
+
+Mom is happy. She says they are good drivers and good cleaners. She hugs them and gives them a cookie. They smile and say thank you. They put their cars in a safe place and go inside to eat their cookie.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They saw a big red ball near the fence. Sara wanted to play with it.
+

+
+"OK, Sara, but be careful. The fence is high and sharp," Ben said.
+
+They ran to the fence and Sara climbed over it. She grabbed the red ball and threw it to Ben. Ben caught it and threw it back. They laughed and had fun.
+
+But then Sara saw a big dog on the other side of the fence. The dog was black and angry. It barked and growled at Sara. Sara was scared. She did not recognize the dog. She wanted to go back to Ben.
+
+"Ben, help me! There is a dog here! It is mean!" Sara cried.
+
+"Stay there, Sara! I will get help!" Ben said.
+
+He ran to find a grown-up. But he was too late. The dog jumped over the fence and bit Sara. Sara screamed and dropped the ball. She fell to the ground and cried. The dog ran away with the ball.
+
+Ben came back with a grown-up. They saw Sara bleeding and hurt. They called for help. Sara was taken to the hospital. She had a bad fall and a bad bite. She was sad and in pain. She lost her friend and the red ball. She wished she never saw the ball. It was a bad day.
+Anna and Ben were enthusiastic to go to the lake with their mom and dad. They liked to swim, splash and play in the water. They also liked to see the ducks, fish and frogs that lived in the lake.
+
+They packed their swimsuits, towels, hats and sunscreen in a big bag. They also brought some bread to feed the ducks. They got in the car and drove to the lake. It was a sunny and warm day.

+
+Their mom and dad were firm. They said, "You have to stop now. You need to have a snack and rest. You can play more later. Come on, it's not a big deal."
+
+Anna and Ben were sad and angry. They did not like to stop. They pouted and stomped their feet. They said, "It is a big deal! We don't want to stop!"
+
+Their mom and dad were patient. They said, "We understand that you are having fun, but you also need to take care of yourself. You need to eat, drink and rest. You can play more after you do that. We promise. Trust us, it's not a big deal."
+
+Anna and Ben thought about it. They realized that their mom and dad were right. They were hungry, thirsty and tired. They also wanted to play more later. They decided to listen to their mom and dad. They said, "Okay, okay, we will stop. We will have a snack and rest. But we want to play more later!"

+Their mom and dad smiled and hugged them. They said, "Good, good, we are proud of you. You are smart and brave. You can play more later. We love you. It's not a big deal."
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play together. Every morning, they wake up when the sun is light. They get out of bed and put on their clothes.
+
+Tom likes to wear a shirt with buttons. Lily likes to wear a dress with flowers. But they both have a problem. They do not know how to tie their shoes. They try to make a knot, but it is too loose or too tight.
+
+"Mom, can you help us?" they ask. Mom comes to their room. She smiles and hugs them.
+
+"Of course, I can help you. Let me show you how to tie your shoes. It is easy and fun. You just need to make a loop, a cross, and a pull."
+
+Mom shows them how to tie their shoes. She makes a loop with one lace, and a cross with the other lace. Then she pulls the laces through the loop. She makes a bow and tucks the ends.
+
+"Wow, that is so cool!" Tom says.
+
+"I want to try it too!" Lily says.
+
+They practice tying their shoes. They make loops, crosses, and pulls. They make bows and tucks. They are very proud of themselves.

+
+"Can I have more juice, please?" Sara asked the waiter. The waiter smiled and brought her a glass of juice.
+
+"Thank you!" Sara said.
+
+"You're welcome. You are a very polite girl," the waiter said.
+

+
+"Can I help you clear the table?" he asked the waiter.
+
+The waiter was surprised and happy. He said, "That is very kind of you, but you don't have to. You are a guest here. You can just enjoy your meal and have fun."

+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big cop car parked on their street. They were curious and wanted to look inside.
+
+"Let's go and see the cop car!" Tom said.
+
+"OK, but be careful. We don't want to get in trouble," Lily said.
+
+They walked to the cop car and peeked through the window. They saw a radio, a badge, and a gun. They thought it was cool and exciting.
+
+"Wow, look at this! I want to be a cop when I grow up," Tom said.
+
+"Me too! I want to catch bad guys and help people," Lily said.
+
+They decided to play cop and robber. Tom pretended to be the cop and Lily pretended to be the robber. Tom was very bossy and told Lily what to do.
+
+"Stop, robber! You are under arrest! Put your hands up!" Tom shouted.
+
+"No, I won't! You can't catch me!" Lily shouted back.
+
+They ran around the car, chasing and dodging each other. They had fun, but they also made a lot of noise.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud voice behind them.
+
+"Hey, what are you kids doing here? This is my car!" It was the real cop who owned the car. He looked angry and stern.
+
+Lily and Tom were scared and sorry. They stopped playing and turned around.
+
+"Sorry, sir. We were just playing. We didn't mean to bother you," Lily said.
+
+"Yeah, sorry. We like your car. We want to be cops like you," Tom said.
+
+The cop looked at them and softened his expression. He saw that they were just innocent and curious.
+
+"Well, I'm glad you like my car, but you can't play with it. It's not a toy. It's for work. And you can't be so loud. You might disturb the neighbors or cause an accident," the cop said.
+
+He walked to his car and opened the door. He took out two stickers that had a star and the word "cop" on them.
+
+"Here, I'll give you these stickers as a gift. You can put them on your shirts and pretend to be cops. But remember, being a cop is not just about having a car and a gun. It's about being brave, honest, and kind. And it's also about listening and following the rules. Do you understand?" the cop said.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded and smiled. They thanked the cop and took the stickers. They put them on their shirts and felt proud.
+
+"Thank you, sir. You are a nice cop. We will be good cops too," Lily said.
+
+"Yeah, thank you. And we will be quiet and careful too," Tom said.
+
+The cop smiled and waved at them. He got in his car and drove away.
+
+Lily and Tom walked back to their homes. They learned a lesson that day. They learned that playing is fun, but they also have to respect other people's things and feelings. And they learned that being a cop is not just about being bossy, but about being helpful and fair.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big black tap near the pond. They run to the tap and look at it.
+
+"Wow, what is this?" Tom asks.
+
+"It is a tap. It makes water come out," Mia says.
+
+"Can we turn it on?" Tom wonders.
+
+"Let's try," Mia says. She reaches for the handle of the tap.
+
+But the tap is too high for them. They cannot touch it. They jump and stretch, but they still cannot reach it.
+
+They feel sad. They want to see the water.
+
+Then they have an idea. They find a big rock and drag it to the tap. They put the rock under the tap. Then they climb on the rock.
+
+"Now we can reach it," Tom says.
+
+He turns the handle of the tap. Water comes out. It is cold and clear. It makes a splash sound.

+
+Ben wanted to play with the ball too. He said, "Can I have a turn? It is not fair. You have many toys and I have few."
+
+Lily was selfish and did not want to share. She said, "No, you cannot have a turn. It is my ball. Go away."
+
+Ben was sad and angry. He said, "You are mean. You are not a good sister. I will not play with you anymore." He ran away from the hedge.
+
+Lily was alone in the hedge with the ball. She felt lonely and sorry. She realized that she was wrong. She said, "I am sorry, Ben. I was selfish. You can have the ball. Please come back and play with me."
+
+She looked for Ben in the garden. She saw him sitting on a swing. She ran to him and gave him the ball. She said, "I am sorry, Ben. I love you. Can we be friends again?"
+
+Ben smiled and hugged her. He said, "I am sorry, too. I love you. We can be friends again. Thank you for the ball. Can we play with it together?"

+
+One day, a new boy arrives at the park. He has a red bike. He rides his bike very fast. He does not stop for anyone. He makes Lily and Ben scared.
+
+"Who is he?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"I don't know. He is not nice. He goes too fast. He almost hit me with his bike," Ben says.
+
+They watch the new boy ride his bike around the park. He does not smile or say hello. He does not share his bike. He only cares about his bike.
+
+Lily and Ben decide to go to the other side of the park. They find a sandbox and a seesaw. They have fun playing with the sand and the seesaw. They forget about the new boy and his bike.
+
+The new boy sees Lily and Ben. He wants to play with them. He rides his bike to the other side of the park. He stops his bike near the sandbox. He says, "Hi, I am Tom. Can I play with you?"
+
+Lily and Ben look at him. They are not sure. He does not look friendly. He does not look sorry.
+
+"Maybe," Lily says. "But you have to be nice. You have to slow down. You have to share your bike. You have to say sorry."
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He likes his bike. He likes to go fast. He does not like to share. He does not like to say sorry. He says, "No, thank you. I like my bike. I like to go fast. I don't need to share. I don't need to say sorry."
+
+He rides his bike away. He does not look back. He does not make any friends.
+
+Lily and Ben shrug. They do not care. They have each other. They have the sandbox and the seesaw. They have fun. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with cardboard. They make houses, cars, and rockets with cardboard. They use crayons and stickers to decorate them.

+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is Max, Lily's big brother. He is fat and mean. He sees the castle and laughs.
+
+"What is this? A cardboard castle? How silly! I will destroy it!" Max says.
+
+He runs towards the castle and kicks it. The cardboard falls apart. Lily and Ben are very sad. They cry.
+
+"Stop it, Max! You are very bad! You broke our castle!" Lily says.
+
+"Yeah, go away, Max! You are very mean! You made us sad!" Ben says.
+
+Max does not care. He laughs and runs away.
+
+Lily and Ben look at their broken castle. They are very sad. They hug and comfort each other.
+
+"It's okay, Lily. We can make another castle. We still have cardboard," Ben says.
+
+"Yes, Ben. We can make a better castle. We still have crayons and stickers," Lily says.
+
+They wipe their tears and smile. They are still friends. They still love each other. They still like to play with cardboard.

+
+"OK!" Lily says. "That sounds fun. Where can we find carrots?"
+
+Tim thinks for a moment. He sees a patch of dirt near the fence. He runs to it and digs with his hands. He finds a small orange thing. He pulls it out. It is a carrot!
+
+"Look, Lily! I found a carrot!" Tim shouts. He shows her the carrot. It is dirty and has green leaves.
+

+Lily was a big girl who liked to do things by herself. She was independent and did not need help from anyone. One day, she wanted to go for a walk in the park with her mom and dad. She put on her boots and coat and said, "I'm ready!"
+
+Her mom and dad smiled and said, "OK, let's go. But stay close to us, Lily. The park is big and there are many people and cars."
+
+Lily nodded and followed them outside. She saw many puddles on the street. They looked shiny and fun. She wanted to jump in them and make a splash. She said, "Look, puddles! Can I jump in them, please?"
+
+Her mom and dad said, "No, Lily. You will get wet and dirty. And you might slip and fall. Puddles are not for jumping. They are for walking around."
+
+Lily was not happy. She thought puddles were for jumping. She thought it was fun to get wet and dirty. She thought she was big enough to not slip and fall. She said, "But I want to jump in them. I'm a big girl. I can do it by myself."
+
+She did not listen to her mom and dad. She ran away from them and jumped in a big puddle. She made a big splash and laughed. She felt independent and free.
+
+But then she felt something else. She felt cold and wet. She felt mud on her boots and coat. She felt a pain in her knee. She had slipped and fallen in the puddle. She started to cry.
+
+Her mom and dad ran to her and picked her up. They hugged her and said, "Oh, Lily. Are you OK? You should have listened to us. Puddles are not for jumping. They are for walking around."
+
+Lily felt sorry and said, "I'm sorry, mom and dad. I was wrong. Puddles are not for jumping. They are for walking around. Can you help me clean up?"
+
+Her mom and dad said, "Of course, Lily. We love you. We will help you clean up. And next time, please stay close to us and listen to us. We know what is best for you."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "OK, mom and dad. I love you too. And next time, I will stay close to you and listen to you. You are the best."

+
+The mean kids saw Sam, Lily, and Ali playing together. They got angry and tried to stop them. They said Sam and Lily should not play with Ali because he was different. They said Ali did not belong here and should go back to his nation.
+
+Sam, Lily, and Ali did not listen to them. They said they did not care if Ali was different. They said he was their friend and they liked him. They said being different was not bad, but good. They said they could learn from each other and have fun together.

+The dog reached them. He sniffed them and licked them. He wagged his tail and barked. He wanted to play with them. He took the ball in his mouth and ran away. He set the ball on the grass and waited for them to chase him.

+
+Lily listened to her mommy and watched the bee from a safe distance. She realized that even though the bee looked cute, it was important to be careful around it. From that day on, Lily always remembered to be cautious around bees.
+Once upon a time, there was a boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to read the newspaper. Every day, he would run outside to get the newspaper from the mailbox. One day, Timmy saw that the newspaper was very heavy! He tried to pick it up, but it was too heavy for him.

+
+One day, the mommy was making some yummy soup. She poured the soup into two bowls, one for her and one for her husband. Then, she remembered that she had two babies in her tummy. She poured some soup into another bowl for the twins to share when they were born.

+
+But when she opened the jar, she was disappointed to find that the jam inside was not very good. It was too sweet and tasted funny. Lily was sad because she had been looking forward to the fancy jam.
+
+Her mom told her that sometimes things that look fancy on the outside are not always good on the inside. She said that it's important to not judge things by their appearance, but to reveal their true nature by trying them out.
+
+Lily learned an important lesson that day. She realized that sometimes the simplest things in life, like her regular jam, can be the best. And she never judged something by its fancy label again.

+
+He showed the map to his friend Lily. Lily liked to read books too. She read about fairies, princesses, and animals. She wanted to help Ben find the treasure.
+
+They followed the map to the park. They had to cross a bridge, go past a slide, and dig under a tree. They were nervous. What if someone saw them? What if the treasure was scary?
+
+They reached the tree and started to dig. They dug and dug until they saw something shiny. They pulled it out. It was a treasure chest. They opened it and saw many things. There were coins, jewels, toys, and books. Ben and Lily were happy. They had found the treasure.
+
+They decided to share the treasure with their friends. They took some coins, jewels, and toys. They also took some books. They liked to read books. They read about their treasure and had fun.
+Lily and Sam were twins who liked to draw. They had many pastels in different colors. Pastels are like crayons, but softer and smoother. They could make pretty pictures with them.
+
+One day, they went to the park with their mom. They saw a long train with many cars. The train was red and yellow and blue and green. It made a loud noise as it moved on the tracks.
+
+"Wow, look at the train!" Lily said. "It is so long and colorful. I want to draw it with my pastels."
+
+"Me too!" Sam said. "Let's find a good spot to observe it."
+
+They followed their mom to a bench near the train. They took out their pastels and paper. They started to draw what they saw. They observed the shape of the train, the number of cars, the windows and doors, the smoke and steam.
+
+They used their pastels to make the train look bright and happy. They also drew some trees and flowers and birds around the train. They had fun making their own art.
+
+When they finished, they showed their mom their pictures. She smiled and praised them.
+
+"Wow, you did a great job!" she said. "You observed the train very well. And you used your pastels very nicely. I love your pictures. They are so creative and beautiful."

+Lily and Sam felt proud and happy. They thanked their mom and hugged her. They decided to keep their pictures as a souvenir of their day at the park. They also decided to observe more things and draw them with their pastels. They liked to learn and express themselves.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was the camera. The camera was a gift from their grandma, who liked to take pictures of them. The camera had a button that made a click sound and a screen that showed the pictures.
+
+One day, Ben and Lily decided to play a game with the camera. They took turns hiding and peeking at each other, and then snapping a picture. They laughed when they saw the funny faces they made on the screen. They had so much fun that they did not notice their mom calling them for lunch.
+
+"Ben, Lily, come to the table, please. Your food is ready," their mom said.
+
+But Ben and Lily did not hear her. They kept playing with the camera, hiding and peeking and snapping.
+
+"Ben, Lily, I'm waiting for you. Your food is getting cold," their mom said again.
+
+But Ben and Lily still did not hear her. They were too busy with the camera, hiding and peeking and snapping.
+
+"Ben, Lily, this is the last time I'm calling you. If you don't come now, you will have no dessert," their mom said, a little angry.
+
+But Ben and Lily did not care. They thought the camera was more important than the food, hiding and peeking and snapping.
+
+Finally, their mom came to their room and saw them playing with the camera. She was not happy. She took the camera away from them and said, "Ben, Lily, you have been very naughty. You did not listen to me when I called you for lunch. You did not appreciate the food I made for you. You did not share the camera with anyone else. You only cared about yourselves. Now you will have no dessert, and no camera for the rest of the day. Maybe then you will learn to be more respectful and grateful and generous."
+
+Ben and Lily felt very sorry. They realized they had made a mistake. They hugged their mom and said, "We're sorry, mom. We love you. We love the food you make for us. We love the camera grandma gave us. We will listen to you next time. We will appreciate what we have. We will share with others. Please forgive us."
+
+Their mom smiled and said, "I forgive you, Ben and Lily. I love you too. But you still have to eat your lunch, and you still have to wait until tomorrow to play with the camera again. I hope you understand."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and said, "We understand, mom. Thank you for teaching us a lesson. We will be better children from now on."
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: The story teaches the children to listen to their parents, to appreciate what they have, and to share with others. It also shows the consequences of being selfish and disobedient.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him two buttons for eyes and a carrot for a nose. They were very happy.
+
+But then Lily saw that one of her mittens was gone. She looked around, but she could not find it. She started to worry. She did not want her hand to be cold. She did not want to lose her mitten.
+
+"Ben, Ben, I lost my mitten!" she cried. "Can you help me find it?"
+
+Ben stopped playing and came to Lily. He saw that she was sad and scared. He wanted to help her.
+
+"Don't worry, Lily, we will find your mitten," he said. "Maybe it is under the snow. Let's dig and see."
+
+They dug and dug, but they could not find the mitten. Lily felt more and more worried. She thought that maybe a bird or a squirrel took her mitten. She thought that maybe she would never see it again.
+
+But then Ben saw something red and fuzzy behind the snowman. He ran to it and picked it up. It was Lily's mitten!
+
+"Lily, Lily, I found your mitten!" he shouted. "It was behind the snowman. Look, it is here!"
+
+He gave the mitten to Lily. She was very happy. She put it on her hand and hugged Ben.
+
+"Thank you, Ben, you are the best!" she said. "You are a good friend."
+

+"Can we go on the slide, please?" Lila asks her mom.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. The slide is very high and fast," her mom says.
+
+Lila and Tom run to the slide. They wait for their turn. They see a boy with a red hat. He has a spike on his hat. It looks sharp and scary.
+
+"Wow, look at his hat!" Tom says.
+
+"I don't like his hat. It is rare and mean," Lila says.
+
+The boy with the red hat goes on the slide. He slides down very fast. He laughs and shouts. He does not see Lila and Tom. He bumps into them. They fall down. They cry.
+
+"Ouch! He hurt us!" Lila says.
+
+"Sorry, sorry, I did not see you!" the boy with the red hat says.
+
+He takes off his hat. He gives it to Lila and Tom.
+
+"Here, you can have my hat. It is not real. It is just for fun. I did not mean to hurt you. Do you want to be my friend?" he asks.

+
+They smile and hug. They put on the hat. They go on the slide together. They have fun. Their moms are happy. They make a new friend.
+Lily was a little cat who liked to explore. She was independent and curious. She wanted to see what was outside her home. One day, she saw a hole in the fence. She thought it was a good chance to escape.
+
+She squeezed through the hole and ran to the street. She saw many things: cars, trees, birds, dogs. She felt excited and scared. She wanted to play with the birds, but they flew away. She wanted to sniff the trees, but a dog barked at her. She wanted to cross the street, but a car honked at her.
+
+She realized that outside was not as fun as she thought. She missed her home and her family. She wanted to go back, but she did not know how. She looked for the hole in the fence, but she could not find it. She felt lost and sad. She meowed for help, but no one heard her.
+
+Then, she saw a familiar face. It was her brother, Tom. He had followed her through the hole. He was worried about her. He said, "Lily, what are you doing here? This is not a good place for a little cat. You could get hurt. Come on, let's go home."
+
+Lily was happy to see Tom. She said, "Tom, I'm sorry. I wanted to escape and see the world. But I was wrong. Outside is scary and dangerous. I want to go home. Can you show me the way?"
+
+Tom nodded and said, "Yes, I can. Follow me. I know where the hole is. But next time, don't escape without me. We are safer together. And home is the best place for us."
+
+Lily agreed and said, "You are right, Tom. I'm sorry I was so independent. I love you and I love our home. Thank you for finding me."
+
+They hugged and ran back to the hole. They squeezed through and ran to their home. They saw their mom and dad waiting for them. They were happy and relieved. They said, "Lily, Tom, where have you been? We were so worried about you. Don't ever escape again. We love you and we want you to be safe."
+
+Lily and Tom said, "We love you too, mom and dad. We are sorry we escaped. We learned our lesson. We won't do it again. We are happy to be home."
+
+They cuddled with their mom and dad and felt warm and cozy. They realized that home was the best place for them. They were independent, but they were also family. They were happy and content. They fell asleep and dreamed of happy things.
+Lila and Ben were playing with their toys in the garden. They had a lot of toys, but they did not like to share. They each wanted to have the best toys for themselves.
+
+One day, a big rat came into the garden. It had sharp teeth and a long tail. It saw the toys and wanted to play with them too. It ran towards Lila and Ben and tried to grab their toys.
+
+"Go away, rat!" Lila shouted. "These are our toys!"
+
+"No, they are mine!" Ben said. "You can't have them!"
+
+The rat did not listen. It bit Lila's doll and Ben's car. It made them very angry and sad. They cried and yelled at the rat.
+
+But the rat did not care. It liked the toys and wanted more. It saw a big ball and a soft bear. It ran to get them.
+
+Lila and Ben saw the rat and felt anxious. They did not want to lose more toys. They decided to work together and stop the rat. They picked up a stick and a stone and threw them at the rat.
+
+But they missed. The rat was too fast and clever. It dodged the stick and the stone and reached the ball and the bear. It bit them and tore them apart. It made a big mess.
+
+Lila and Ben were very upset. They had no more toys to play with. They wished they had shared their toys with each other. Maybe then the rat would not have come and ruined them all.
+
+The end.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with water. They have a big tub in the garden. They fill it with water from the hose. They splash and laugh.
+
+"Look, I can make a big wave!" Tom says. He jumps in the tub. The water goes up and down.
+
+"Wow, that's fun!" Sam says. He jumps in too. The water goes over the edge of the tub. It makes the grass wet.
+
+"Uh-oh, we made a mess!" Tom says. He sees Mom coming. She looks angry.
+
+"Boys, what are you doing?" Mom says. "You are all wet and dirty. And you wasted a lot of water. You need to dry off and clean up."
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Tom and Sam say. They get out of the tub. They look for a towel. They find one on the tip of a chair. It is big and soft. They wrap it around them. They rub their hair and skin. They try to dry off.
+
+"Is that better, Mom?" Tom asks.
+
+"A little bit," Mom says. "But you still need to put on some clean clothes. And you need to help me water the plants. They are thirsty too."
+
+"OK, Mom," Tom and Sam say. They go inside. They change their clothes. They come back with a small watering can. They water the plants. They are careful not to spill. They make the plants happy.
+
+"Good job, boys," Mom says. "Now you can play something else. But no more water games, OK?"
+
+"OK, Mom," Tom and Sam say. They hug Mom. They say sorry again. They look for a new game. They still like water. But they also like Mom.
+Tom and Ann were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big bird on a wire. The bird was black and had a yellow beak. It made loud noises.
+
+"Look, a bird!" Tom said. "Let's go and say hello."
+
+"No, Tom, don't!" Ann said. "That bird is not nice. It is a crow. Crows are mean. They can bite and scratch."
+
+But Tom did not listen. He ran to the wire and tried to climb it. He wanted to touch the bird. The bird saw Tom and got angry. It flapped its wings and cawed.
+
+"Go away, go away!" the bird said. "This is my wire. You are not welcome here."
+
+Tom was scared. He let go of the wire and fell to the ground. He hurt his knee and his hand. He started to cry.
+
+Ann ran to Tom and hugged him. She helped him get up and took him to the bench. She found a band-aid in her pocket and put it on his knee. She kissed his hand and said, "I'm sorry, Tom. Are you okay?"
+
+Tom nodded. He was still sad. He looked at the bird. The bird was still on the wire. It looked at Tom and laughed.
+
+"Ha, ha, ha!" the bird said. "That's what you get for being silly. You should have listened to your friend. She is smart. You are not."
+
+Tom felt miserable. He wished he had listened to Ann. He learned his lesson. He never tried to touch a crow again. He and Ann went home and played with their toys. They were friends. They liked each other.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big slide. They want to go on the slide.
+
+"Let's go on the slide!" Tom says. He runs to the slide. He climbs up the steps. He sits on the slide. He whistles. He likes to whistle. He slides down fast. He laughs.
+
+Anna follows Tom. She climbs up the steps. She sits on the slide. She does not whistle. She is scared. She slides down slowly. She does not laugh.
+
+Tom waits for Anna at the bottom of the slide. He sees that Anna is sad. He wants to help Anna.
+
+"Why are you sad, Anna?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't like the slide. It is too high. It makes me scared." Anna says.
+
+Tom thinks. He has an idea.
+
+"Look, Anna. The slide is not scary. It is fun. It is like a bird. You can fly on the slide. You can whistle like a bird. Whistling makes you happy. Try it, Anna. Try to whistle." Tom says.
+
+Anna looks at Tom. She sees that Tom is happy. She wants to be happy too. She nods. She climbs up the steps again. She sits on the slide. She tries to whistle. She makes a small sound. She smiles. She slides down faster. She whistles louder. She laughs.
+
+Tom and Anna hug at the bottom of the slide. They are happy. They look at the sky. They see birds. They hear birds whistling. They whistle with the birds. They feel like birds. They love the slide. They love the park. They love each other. They have a lovely day.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to help Mom in the kitchen. Mom is making soup for lunch. She puts carrots, potatoes, and chicken in a big pot. She adds water and salt. She turns on the stove.
+
+"Can we taste the soup, Mom?" Sara asks.
+
+"Not yet, sweetie. The soup is very hot. See the steam?" Mom says, pointing to the white clouds rising from the pot.
+
+"What is steam, Mom?" Ben asks.
+
+"Steam is water that gets very hot and turns into air. It can burn you if you touch it. You have to wait until the soup cools down a little," Mom explains.
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They understand. They want to be careful. They look around the kitchen. They see spoons, bowls, napkins, and bread on the table. They see a knife, a cutting board, and some cheese on the counter.
+
+"Can we help you set the table, Mom?" Sara asks.
+
+"Sure, that would be very nice of you. You are such good helpers. But you have to be organized, okay?" Mom says.
+
+"What does organized mean, Mom?" Ben asks.
+
+"Organized means you put everything in the right place. You don't make a mess. You don't mix up the spoons and the bowls. You don't drop the bread or the cheese. You work together and share," Mom says.
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They understand. They want to be organized. They take the spoons and the bowls and put them on the table. They take the napkins and fold them neatly. They take the bread and the cheese and cut them into small pieces. They work together and share.
+
+"Wow, you did a great job, Sara and Ben. You are very organized. The soup is ready now. You can taste it. But be careful, it might still be hot," Mom says.
+
+Sara and Ben smile. They are happy. They sit down at the table. They taste the soup. It is delicious. They eat the bread and the cheese. They drink some water. They thank Mom for the lunch.
+
+They love Mom. They love soup. They love being organized.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big white ball in the sky. It is the moon.
+
+"Wow, look at the moon!" Tom says. "It is so big and white!"
+
+"I wish I could touch the moon," Lily says. "It looks so soft and shiny."
+
+They enjoy looking at the moon. They want to go closer to it. They see a big hill near the park. They think the hill is closer to the moon.
+
+"Let's go to the hill!" Tom says. "Maybe we can touch the moon from there!"
+
+"OK, let's go!" Lily says. They run to the hill. They climb up the hill. They are very happy.
+
+But when they reach the top of the hill, they are sad. The moon is still very far away. They cannot touch it.
+
+"Why is the moon so far?" Tom asks. "We climbed so high!"
+
+"I don't know," Lily says. "Maybe the moon is shy. Maybe it does not want us to touch it."
+
+They are very disappointed. They sit on the hill and look at the moon. They still wish they could touch it.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud bark. It is a big dog. The dog is angry. It does not like Tom and Lily. It wants them to go away.
+
+"Go away, go away!" the dog barks. "This is my hill! You cannot be here!"
+
+Tom and Lily are scared. They do not like the dog. They want to go back to the park.
+
+"Help, help!" Tom and Lily shout. "There is a big dog! It is chasing us!"
+
+They run down the hill. They run to the park. They run to their parents. They are safe.
+
+They hug their parents. They tell them about the moon and the dog. Their parents listen to them. They comfort them.
+
+They look at the moon again. It is still big and white. But they do not want to touch it anymore. They are happy to be with their parents. They enjoy being in the park. They forget about the dog. They make a wish. They wish to be friends forever.
+Lily and Tom were making jam sandwiches for their picnic. Lily liked to spread the jam very thin on her bread, but Tom liked to spread it very thick. He used a big spoon to scoop out the jam from the jar.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have more jam than you!" Tom said, showing her his sandwich.
+
+"But you have too much jam, Tom. It will drip out of your sandwich and make a mess. And you will not taste the bread or the butter. You should use a teaspoon like me." Lily said, holding up her small spoon.
+
+"No, I like it this way. It is yummy and sweet. You have too little jam, Lily. It will be dry and boring. And you will not taste the jam or the fruit. You should use a big spoon like me." Tom said, sticking out his tongue.
+
+They argued for a while, until their mom came into the kitchen. She saw their sandwiches and smiled.
+
+"Wow, you two have very different tastes. But that's okay. Everyone can have their sandwich the way they like it. As long as you share and be nice to each other." She said, cutting their sandwiches in half.
+
+"Okay, mom. We will share and be nice." Lily and Tom said, giving each other a hug.
+
+They put their sandwiches in a basket and went outside to have their picnic. They enjoyed their jam sandwiches, even though they were thin and thick. They also had some milk, some cookies, and some grapes. They had a lot of fun.
+Lily and Max were playing in the attic. They liked to look at the old things that their grandma kept there. They found a big box full of books, toys and clothes. They opened the box and saw a picture of a lady with a long dress and a hat. She had a smile on her face and a flower in her hand.
+
+"Who is she?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe she was grandma's friend. Or maybe she was a princess. She looks very pretty," Max said.
+
+They took the picture out of the box and put it on the floor. They looked at it for a while. Then they heard a noise. It sounded like someone was walking on the stairs.
+
+"Who is that?" Lily whispered.
+
+"Maybe it's grandma. Or maybe it's a monster. Let's hide," Max whispered back.
+
+They quickly put the picture back in the box and closed the lid. They ran to the corner of the attic and hid behind a curtain. They waited for the noise to stop. They hoped it was not a monster.
+
+The noise came closer and closer. They heard the door of the attic open. They held their breath. They saw a shadow on the wall. It was big and dark. It was very mysterious.
+
+"Hello, children. Are you here?" a voice said.
+
+It was not a monster. It was grandma. She had a basket of cookies in her hand. She saw the box on the floor and the curtain moving.
+
+"Are you playing hide and seek?" she asked.
+
+Lily and Max came out of their hiding place. They were happy to see grandma. They were not scared anymore.
+
+"Yes, grandma. We were hiding from you. We thought you were a monster," Lily said.
+
+"A monster? No, no. I'm not a monster. I'm your grandma. And I brought you some cookies. Do you want some?" grandma said.
+
+"Yes, please. We love cookies," Max said.
+
+They went to the box and opened it. They took the picture out again and showed it to grandma.
+
+"Grandma, who is this lady?" Lily asked.
+
+Grandma looked at the picture and smiled. She had a tear in her eye.
+
+"This lady is my mother. She was your great-grandma. She died a long time ago. She was very kind and brave. She gave me this picture when I was a little girl. She told me to always remember her and to be happy," grandma said.
+
+Lily and Max hugged grandma. They felt sad and curious.
+
+"Can you tell us more about her, grandma?" Max asked.
+
+"Of course, my dear. Come, let's settle on the couch. I'll tell you all about her. She had many stories to tell. And so do I," grandma said.
+
+They took the picture and the cookies and went to the couch. They settled on it and listened to grandma. They learned about their great-grandma and her adventures. They laughed and cried and asked questions. They felt close to her and to each other. They loved the picture and the stories. They were not mysterious anymore. They were family.
+Anna was a little girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite one was Lily. Lily had long hair, a pretty dress and a smile on her face. Anna loved to brush Lily's hair and make her talk.
+
+One day, Anna saw a shiny needle on the table. She wondered what it was for. She picked it up and looked at it. It had a sharp point and a hole at the other end. She thought it would be fun to make Lily wear the needle as a necklace. She put the needle through the hole in Lily's dress and tied it around her neck.
+
+"Look, Lily, you have a new necklace!" Anna said. "It is very shiny and pretty. Do you like it?"
+
+Lily did not answer. She did not like the needle at all. It was hurting her neck and making her feel miserable. She wished Anna would take it off.
+
+Anna did not notice Lily's pain. She was busy playing with her other dolls. She made them talk and sing and dance. She forgot about Lily and the needle.
+
+After a while, Anna's mom came into the room. She saw Anna playing with her dolls. She smiled and said, "Anna, you are having so much fun with your dolls. They are very nice and cute. Can I see them?"
+
+Anna nodded and showed her mom her dolls. She pointed at each one and said their names. "This is Rosie, this is Daisy, this is Molly, and this is Lily."
+
+Anna's mom looked at Lily and gasped. She saw the needle around her neck. She was shocked and angry. She said, "Anna, what have you done? Why did you put a needle around Lily's neck? That is very dangerous and cruel. You could have hurt yourself or Lily. Needles are not toys. They are for sewing and mending. You should never play with them."
+
+Anna was scared and confused. She did not mean to hurt Lily or herself. She just wanted to make Lily look pretty. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I did not know. I thought it was a necklace. I wanted to make Lily happy."
+
+Anna's mom sighed and shook her head. She said, "Anna, you should be more careful and thoughtful. You should not use things that are not meant for playing. You should also think about how your dolls feel. They are your friends. You should treat them with kindness and respect. How would you feel if someone put a needle around your neck?"
+
+Anna felt ashamed and sorry. She said, "I would feel very bad. I would feel miserable. I would not like it at all."
+
+Anna's mom nodded and said, "That's right. And so does Lily. She does not like the needle either. She likes to be comfortable and happy. You should take it off and apologize to her."
+
+Anna agreed and did as her mom said. She took off the needle and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I did not mean to hurt you. I was wrong. You are my favorite doll and I love you. Please forgive me."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I forgive you, Anna. I love you too. Thank you for taking off the needle. It feels much better now."
+
+Anna hugged Lily and said, "You're welcome, Lily. I'm glad you feel better. You don't need a needle to be pretty. You are already pretty and perfect the way you are."
+
+Anna's mom smiled and said, "That's very sweet, Anna. I'm proud of you. You learned a valuable lesson today. You learned to be careful, thoughtful and kind. Those are important qualities to have. Now, why don't you put the needle back where you found it and play with your dolls some more?"
+
+Anna nodded and said, "Okay, mom. I will. Thank you for teaching me."
+
+Anna's mom kissed her and said, "You're welcome, Anna. I love you."
+
+Anna said, "I love you too, mom."
+
+Anna put the needle back on the table and played with her dolls. She was more careful, thoughtful and kind. She made them all happy and had fun. She never played with needles again.
+Sara loved her dog, Max. He was big and brown and soft. He liked to play and cuddle with Sara. He always wore a blue collar with his name on it. Sara's mom said the collar was important. It helped people know who Max belonged to.
+
+One day, Sara and Max went to the park with Sara's mom. There were many trees and flowers and birds. It was a beautiful day. Sara and Max ran and jumped and chased each other. Sara's mom watched them and smiled.
+
+"Max, come here!" Sara called. She wanted to give him a hug. But Max did not come. He saw a squirrel and ran after it. He was faster than Sara. He forgot about his collar. He forgot about Sara and her mom. He only wanted to catch the squirrel.
+
+"Max, stop!" Sara's mom shouted. She ran after Max, but he was too far. He crossed the road and went into the woods. He did not see the cars or the people. He did not hear Sara's mom or Sara. He only heard the squirrel.
+
+Sara and her mom were scared and sad. They looked for Max, but they could not find him. They asked people, but no one saw him. They cried and hugged each other.
+
+"Where is Max?" Sara asked. "Will he come back?"
+
+"I don't know, honey," Sara's mom said. "I hope so. He has his collar. Maybe someone will find him and call us."
+
+They went home and waited. They hoped and prayed. They missed Max.
+
+Meanwhile, Max wandered in the woods. He lost the squirrel. He was hungry and thirsty and tired. He was lonely and scared. He wanted to go back to Sara and her mom. He wanted to play and cuddle with them. He wanted his blue collar. But he did not know how to go back. He did not know where he was.
+
+He saw a house. He smelled food. He barked and wagged his tail. He hoped someone would help him.
+
+A man opened the door. He saw Max. He smiled and petted him. He saw his blue collar. He read his name.
+
+"Hello, Max," he said. "You are a beautiful dog. Where did you come from? Do you have a family?"
+
+He took Max inside. He gave him water and food. He called the number on his collar. He talked to Sara's mom. He told her he found Max. He told her where he lived. He said he would keep Max safe until they came.
+
+Sara and her mom were happy and relieved. They thanked the man. They drove to his house. They saw Max. They hugged him and kissed him. They put his collar back on. They thanked the man again.
+
+"Max, we love you," Sara said. "Don't wander away again. Stay with us."
+
+Max licked Sara's face. He wagged his tail. He was happy and sorry. He loved Sara and her mom. He wanted to stay with them. He learned his lesson. He never wandered away again.
+Anna was a curious girl who liked to explore new things. One day, she saw a big jar of jam on the kitchen table. She wondered what it tasted like and how it was made. She climbed on a chair and reached for the jar.
+
+"Anna, what are you doing?" her mom asked, coming into the kitchen. "That jam is for later. It's not time for a snack now."
+
+"But mom, I want to try the jam. It looks so yummy and red. How did you make it?" Anna asked.
+
+"I made it from the strawberries we picked from the garden. Do you remember how we planted the seeds and watered them every day? And how they grew into green plants and then into red fruits?" her mom explained.
+
+"Yes, I remember. That was fun. Can we do it again?" Anna said.
+
+"Sure, we can. But first, you have to put the jam back on the table and wash your hands. Then we can go outside and see if there are any more strawberries to pick. Maybe we can make more jam later. How does that sound?" her mom said.
+
+"Okay, mom. That sounds good. I love jam and strawberries. And I love you, mom." Anna said, giving her mom a hug.
+
+"I love you too, Anna. You are my curious and sweet girl." her mom said, smiling.
+Tommy and Lily were playing in their room. Tommy had a new toy car that he liked very much. He wanted to show it to Lily, but she was busy with her dolls. She had a pink comb that she used to brush their hair.
+
+"Look, Lily, look at my car!" Tommy said. "It can go fast and make noises. Vroom, vroom!"
+
+Lily did not look. She kept combing her dolls' hair. She said, "I don't want to see your car. I want to play with my dolls. They are pretty and nice."
+
+Tommy felt angry. He wanted Lily to see his car and play with him. He grabbed the comb from Lily's hand and threw it across the room. "Now you have to look at my car!" he said.
+
+Lily felt sad. She liked her comb and her dolls. She did not like Tommy's car. She started to cry. "Give me back my comb! You are mean and rude!"
+
+Mommy heard the noise and came to the room. She saw Tommy and Lily fighting. She saw the comb on the floor and the car on the bed. She felt tired. She had a lot of work to do and she did not want to deal with their fight. She said, "Stop it, both of you! You have to share and be nice. Tommy, give Lily back her comb. Lily, look at Tommy's car. It is a nice car. Then you can play together or play something else. But no more fighting, okay?"
+
+Tommy and Lily nodded. They felt sorry for making Mommy tired. They said, "Okay, Mommy. We are sorry." Tommy gave Lily back her comb. Lily looked at Tommy's car. She said, "It is a nice car. Can I try it?" Tommy said, "Sure, you can try it. Can I comb your dolls' hair?" Lily said, "Okay, you can comb their hair. But be gentle." They smiled and hugged. They played together and had fun. Mommy smiled and went back to her work. She was glad they made up.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with books and toys. One day, they find a big book with many stories. They open the book and see pictures of animals and people.
+
+"Look, Ben, this is a story about a dog and a cat," Lily says. She points to a page with an adorable dog and a cat. The dog has a bone and the cat has a fish.
+
+"What are they doing?" Ben asks.
+
+"They are sharing their food. The dog gives the cat some bone and the cat gives the dog some fish. They are nice to each other," Lily says.
+
+"That is a good story. Can we add our own story?" Ben says.
+
+"Sure, we can. How do we do that?" Lily says.
+
+"We can draw our own pictures and write our own words. We can use crayons and paper. We can make a story about us and our toys," Ben says.
+
+"OK, let's do that. I have crayons and paper in my bag. What do you want to draw?" Lily says.
+
+"I want to draw a dinosaur and a robot. They are my favorite toys. What do you want to draw?" Ben says.
+
+"I want to draw a unicorn and a fairy. They are my favorite toys. Let's start," Lily says.
+

They are proud of their story. They show their story to their teacher and their friends. Everyone likes their story. They say it is adorable. Lily and Ben smile. They are happy.
+Anna and Ben were friends. They liked to play together in the park. One day, they saw a big cake with many flowers on it. They wondered what it was for.
+
+"Look, Anna, a cake!" Ben said.
+
+"Who is it for?" Anna asked.
+
+They saw a man and a woman in nice clothes. They were holding hands and smiling. They walked to the cake.
+
+"Maybe it is for them," Ben said.
+
+Anna looked at the woman. She had a long, thin dress and a shiny thing on her head. She recognized her. It was her aunt Lily!
+
+"Aunt Lily!" Anna shouted. She ran to her and hugged her.
+
+"Hello, Anna, you look so pretty!" Aunt Lily said. "Do you know what today is?"
+
+Anna shook her head.
+
+"Today is my marriage day. I am marrying this man. He is Sam. He is very kind and funny. Do you want to meet him?"
+
+Anna nodded. She looked at Sam. He had a nice suit and a big smile. He bent down and said hello to her.
+
+"Hello, Anna, I am happy to meet you. You are Aunt Lily's niece, right?"
+
+"Yes, I am. You are nice," Anna said.
+
+"Thank you. You are nice too. Do you like cake?"
+
+"Yes, I do. Do you?"
+
+"Yes, I do. Do you want some?"
+
+"Yes, please!"
+
+Sam laughed. He took Anna's hand and led her to the cake. Ben followed them. They cut a big piece of cake and shared it. It was very yummy. Anna and Ben were happy. They liked Aunt Lily and Sam. They wished them a happy marriage.
+Lily was a spoiled girl who always got what she wanted. She had many toys, books, and clothes, but she was never happy. She always wanted more and more. She did not know how to share or say thank you.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom and saw a boy drawing with a pen. The pen was blue and shiny, and it made beautiful lines on the paper. Lily wanted the pen. She ran to the boy and snatched the pen from his hand.
+
+"Hey, that's mine!" the boy cried. "Give it back!"
+
+"No, it's mine now!" Lily said. "I like it. It's pretty."
+
+The boy was angry and sad. He tried to get his pen back, but Lily was too strong. She pushed him away and ran to her mom.
+
+"Look, mom, I found a pen!" Lily said, showing off her prize.
+
+But her mom was not happy. She saw the boy crying and knew what Lily had done. She scolded Lily and made her give the pen back to the boy. She also made her apologize and say sorry.
+
+Lily did not want to do that. She felt ashamed and angry. She threw a tantrum and cried. She did not understand why she had to give the pen back. She thought it was unfair.
+
+But the boy was happy. He thanked Lily's mom and took his pen back. He smiled and said, "It's okay. I forgive you. Do you want to draw with me?"
+
+Lily was surprised. She did not expect the boy to be so nice. She felt a little bit sorry for what she had done. She nodded and said, "Yes, please."
+
+The boy and Lily sat down and drew together. They used the pen and other colors. They made flowers, animals, and stars. They had fun and became friends.
+
+Lily learned a lesson that day. She learned that stealing is wrong and that sharing is good. She learned that being nice is better than being spoiled. She learned that a pen can make more than lines. It can make stories, pictures, and friends.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They go to the same school. They like to play and talk. Today they have a test. The test is about colors and shapes.
