+When he finished writing, John went to the kitchen to get some yogurt for his snack. His mum said, "Oh, that's great! Now you can enjoy a tasty treat like the yogurt creature in your story!" 
+
+John ate his yogurt and thought about how much fun it was to come up with a story that was both attractive and tasty. It was a great day!
+Jill and Chris were playing chess. They had an original chess set, given to them by Jill's grandpa. Jill was really good at chess and she usually won against Chris.
+
+Chris sighed. "Jill, I don't know if I can ever win against you."
+
+Jill replied with a smile, "Come on, don't lose heart. It's just a game."
+
+But this time didn't seem quite so fun. Chris started making careless moves and soon he was in trouble. Jill was about to make a move which could win her the game, when suddenly he knocked over his pieces and the chess pieces rolled on the floor. 
+
+Chris looked embarrassed and he said, "Oh no. I lost them all."
+
+Jill smiled and said, "Don't worry. We'll find them and put them back. The original chess set was really special, so we can't leave it incomplete."
+
+The two of them spent some time finding every single piece, and soon they had the original chess set back in it's previous state. 
+
+"So, back to our game?", asked Jill.
+
+"Yes!" Chris said with enthusiasm.
+
+The two continued the game and this time, Chris was winning! He learned that it was OK to lose, but it was also OK to make mistakes and learn from them.
+Once there was a sack. It was very special. On this sack were many colours, red, blue and green.
+
+One day, two friends, Sally and Daisy, were walking together. They saw the sack and started to laugh. Sally said she wanted to play a game and Daisy agreed.
+
+The two of them turned the sack upside down. They both put their hands inside the sack and felt around. Daisy said "I'm very competitive, I want to win the game!"
+
+Sally said "That's ok, it's just a game." The two girls laughed and swapped places. They turned the sack again and tried to find something inside.
+
+In the end, Daisy won the game. She was so happy with her prize of a shiny coin. They both cheered and hugged each other. The girls turned the sack back around and went off together, laughing and playing.
+Once upon a time, there was a blue tree. On one of its branches, a little girl was sitting. Her name was Ellie and she had big, blue eyes. She was looking around and blinked. 
+Suddenly, she heard a voice. It was coming from the tree. "Hello there," the tree said. 
+Ellie blinked again and said, "Hello, tree." 
+The tree asked her, "What are you doing up in my tree, Ellie?" 
+Ellie answered, "I was looking for a nice place to sleep. Is it alright if I stay here?" 
+The tree smiled, "Of course! You can stay with me as long as you'd like." 
+So, Ellie made a cozy spot among the tree's branches and looked up at the night sky with a big smile. She had found her perfect bed.
+Once upon a time, there was a girl who loved to play. She would make sparky things out of mud and dirt and her friends would think it was the best thing ever.
+
+One day, the girl went to the park and found a sparkly stone. She looked around and saw no one, so she decided to take it home with her.
+
+On the way back, the girl became calm. She could feel the sparkle in the stone. She stopped and closed her eyes.
+
+"Hello!"
+
+The girl looked up and saw a little boy.
+
+"What are you doing?" the boy asked.
+
+"I found this sparkly stone and it made me feel calm," the girl said.
+
+The boy smiled. "Why don't we play with it together?" he asked.
+
+The girl smiled and said "Yes!"
+
+And so the two new friends played together with the sparkly stone, until the sun began to set and it was time to go home.
+Once there was an ordinary girl. She loved to play with chalk. Outside, she would draw lots of pictures on the pavement with the chalk. 
+
+One day she had an idea - why not throw the chalk? She tried it and it flew in a big arc. She laughed and did it again. All the colours flew up and then landed softly.
+
+She threw more and more until there was a whole rainbow of colour on the ground. It was like a big party and she had made it all with the chalk. 
+
+Then it started to rain. The rain washed away all the colours and it was gone. But soon the sun was back and the ordinary girl could start her drawing all over again!
+Once upon a time, there was a goat who liked to zoom all around the farm. He ran so fast that he never stayed in one place for too long. His favourite spot to zoom to was the top of the highest hill.
+
+One day, the goat went up to the top of the tallest hill like he always did. But this time, it was different. The hill was very steep and the goat realized it would be dangerous if he zoomed it.
+
+But the goat really wanted to zoom the hill and he couldn't help himself. So he braced himself, took a deep breath and zoomed down the hill.
+
+At first, he thought it was fun. But suddenly, he got too close to a tree and he had to stop. He quickly changed direction and zoomed back up the hill.
+
+He stopped at the top and looked back down. He was relieved he had made it and he was also happy he hadn't gotten hurt. He learned his lesson that day: never zoom down a dangerous hill.
+Once upon a time there were two friends, Tilly and Tim. They were playing together in the park. Every day they would run, bounce and move around having lots of fun.
+
+On this day, Tilly was wearing a jolly dress, with bright colourful designs. She stopped and watched as Tim picked up a piece of waste from the ground.
+
+Tilly: "What are you doing Tim?"
+
+Tim: "I'm going to move this waste to the rubbish bin. It's not nice to leave when we should be cleaning up," he replied.
+
+Tilly smiled and said, "That's a great idea, Tim! We'll do it together if you like?"
+
+Tim beamed, "Yes, that'll be fun!"
+
+The two friends cheerfully moved all the waste to the bin, and when it was all finished they ran around together, laughing and having lots of fun.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Molly. She was three years old and loved looking at the orange sunrise every morning. She found it so peaceful and pretty!
+
+One morning, Molly asked her mommy, "What do you do most of the day?" Her mommy said, "I teach people. I try to help them learn new things." Molly thought it sounded fun, but she wasn't sure if she was old enough to learn.
+
+Molly asked her mommy, "Can I learn too?" Her mommy smiled and said, "Of course you can learn. You can learn lots of things." Molly was excited and couldn't wait to start.
+
+At the end of the night, before Molly went to sleep, she asked her mommy, "How can I learn tomorrow?" Her mommy said, "Tomorrow is your first lesson. You'll learn all about the sky and sunshine." Molly was very happy and quickly fell asleep, dreaming of her orange sunrise.
+Mum and Dad were getting ready for a special party. They wanted everything to be perfect so they asked their three year old daughter, Bella, to help.

+
+Excitedly, Bella grabbed markers, glue and glitter. She went to the kitchen and asked her Mum, "What can I decorate with?"
+
+Mum smiled. She held up a head of broccoli. "Here, use this. It will look delicious." 
+
+Bella took the broccoli and decorated it with markers and glitter. She was so proud of her work that she even ran to show Dad what she had done.
+
+"It looks awesome," said Dad. "Let's put it on the table so everyone can see!"
+
+Bella smiled and the three of them put the broccoli on the table. Everyone at the party thought it was delicious, and it made the table look perfect.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl who loved to swim. Every day she would go to the pool and dip her toes in the cool water.
+
+One day, when she was swimming, she saw a little box in the water. She swam over to it and opened it. Inside, she saw lovely cereal. She was so excited and couldn't believe her luck.
+
+"Who put this here?" she asked. She looked around, but nobody was there.
+
+Suddenly, she heard a voice say, "I did!" She looked up and saw a lovely mermaid smiling at her.
+
+"I thought you might like the cereal," said the mermaid.
+
+The little girl thanked the mermaid and enjoyed the cereal as she swam. She was so happy that she had found such a lovely treat.
+
+The little girl and the mermaid became friends and swam together every day.
+Mummy, Daddy and baby Jack were walking to the restaurant. Jack was very excited. He couldn't wait to eat all the yummy food.
+
+When they got to the restaurant, it was very hot inside. Jack started to feel very sleepy. He yawned and stumbled into his chair.
+
+Mummy looked at Jack and said, "We shouldn't have stayed outside for so long."
+
+Daddy agreed and said, "Yes, let's order quickly so we can get some delicious food and then get home for a nap."
+
+Jack was happy. He wanted to stay at the restaurant and eat, but he was too tired. So off they went, to have a nice rest at home.
+Once upon a time, there was a soft lightning bug. She was the brightest, softest, and most beautiful of all lightning bugs. Every night, she would mail herself around the garden, seeking adventure.
+
+One day, she flew too close to the lake. Suddenly she was struck by a powerful bolt of lightning! It was brighter and more powerful than any of the lightning strikes she had seen before.
+
+The soft lightning bug was never seen again. The lightning had taken her away forever.
+Sandy skipped with joy. She was wearing a gray dress and was so excited for the surprise that was waiting for her. Suddenly she ran into her old friend Mia who was wearing a colorful tie. Mia waved at Sandy and asked, "What are you doing here?"
+
+Sandy replied smiling as she skipped around, "I am skipping with excitement! Mama said that I have a surprise waiting for me at home!"
+
+Mia chuckled and said, "That sounds so exciting! I wish I could come with you to see the surprise."
+
+Sandy twirled around, the sun glistening against her gray dress. She grabbed Mia's hand and said, "I think I know what the surprise is. Mama had a big box with a bow on it that was gray!"
+
+Mia gasped, her colorful tie flapping in the wind. She clapped her hands together and said, "I think I know what it is too! I bet it's a new trampoline!"
+
+Sandy's eyes sparkled with excitement as she ran towards her home. She was sure that her surprise was the trampoline, and she couldn't wait to start jumping on it!

+
+"That is a potato, Lily. It grows under the dirt. You can eat it. It is yummy!" Tom says.
+
+"Really? A potato? Can I see?" Lily says. She gives it to Tom.
+
+Tom shows her the potato. He rubs off some dirt. He sees some eyes on the potato.
+
+"See, Lily, the potato has eyes. But it cannot see. It is not alive. It is food." Tom says.
+
+Lily laughs. She thinks the potato is funny. She wants to see more.
+
+"Let's dig more, Tom. Maybe we can find more potatoes!" Lily says.
+
+They dig more. They find more potatoes. They are happy. They put the potatoes in a basket.

+
+One day, Lily finds a new color in her drawer. It is shiny and bright. It is gold. Lily is happy. She wants to draw something special with the gold color. She thinks and thinks. She has an idea.
+
+She draws a big heart on a paper. She fills the heart with the gold color. She writes "I love you" with the gold color. She draws stars and suns and moons around the heart. She is proud of her drawing. She wants to give it to someone.
+
+She thinks of her grandma. Her grandma is kind and sweet. She reads stories to Lily and makes cookies for her. She hugs Lily and tells her she is fine. Lily loves her grandma. She decides to give her the drawing.
+
+She puts the drawing in an envelope. She writes "To Grandma" on the front. She asks her mom to help her send it. Her mom says yes. She takes the envelope and puts a stamp on it. She says they will go to the mailbox together.
+
+Lily is excited. She holds her mom's hand and walks to the mailbox. She puts the envelope in the mailbox. She waves to the mailbox and says "Bye bye, drawing. Have a good trip." She hopes her grandma will like it.

+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play together. But sometimes they also liked to order each other. Ben wanted to order Lily to give him her toy car. Lily wanted to order Ben to give her his toy train. They did not want to share or take turns.
+
+One day, they started to order each other loudly. "Give me your car!" Ben said. "No, give me your train!" Lily said. They both pulled on the toys and did not let go. They started to fight. They pushed and kicked and shouted. They made a big mess in their room.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Ben and Lily fighting over the toys. She was not happy. She told them to stop fighting and to say sorry. She told them to share and take turns. She told them to clean up the mess.
+
+But Ben and Lily did not listen. They were persistent. They still wanted to order each other and have both toys. They did not say sorry or share or take turns. They did not clean up the mess. They kept fighting.
+
+Mom was very angry. She took away both toys and put them in a box. She told Ben and Lily to go to their beds and think about what they did. She told them they could not have the toys back until they learned to be nice and to listen. Ben and Lily were sad and sorry. They wished they had not fought and ordered each other. They wished they had shared and taken turns. They wished they had listened to Mom. They hoped Mom would forgive them and give them the toys back soon.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big red pepper in their mother's garden. They wondered how it tasted.
+
+"Let's try it," Ben said. He picked the pepper and broke it in half. He gave one piece to Anna and kept the other.
+
+They both took a bite and felt a hot fire in their mouths. They spit out the pepper and ran to the house. They cried and screamed for water.
+
+Their mother heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw the pepper and understood. She gave them a glass of water and a hug.
+
+"Why did you eat the pepper?" she asked.
+
+"We wanted to try it," Anna said.
+
+"It looked good," Ben said.
+
+Their mother smiled and said, "The pepper is spicy. It is not for children. It is for cooking. Next time, ask me before you eat something from the garden. I will tell you what is good and what is not."
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and said they were sorry. They learned their lesson. They never ate spicy peppers again. They only ate what their mother gave them.
+Sara and Tom were playing in the garden. They had a big box and some crayons. They wanted to make a lovely thing with the box.
+
+"What do you want to make, Sara?" Tom asked.
+
+"I want to make a castle, Tom. A castle with a princess and a dragon and a knight," Sara said.
+
+"That sounds fun, Sara. How do we make a castle?" Tom asked.
+
+"We can draw windows and doors and towers on the box. And we can cut out some flags and stick them on the top. And we can imagine that we are the princess and the knight, and the dragon is hiding in the bushes," Sara said.
+
+They worked hard on their castle. They drew and cut and stuck and colored. They made a lovely thing with the box. Then they put on some hats and capes and went inside the castle.
+
+"Hello, princess Sara. I am knight Tom. I have come to save you from the dragon," Tom said.
+
+"Hello, knight Tom. Thank you for coming. The dragon is very scary. He roars and breathes fire and tries to eat me," Sara said.
+
+"Don't worry, princess Sara. I have a sword and a shield and I am very brave. I will fight the dragon and protect you," Tom said.
+
+They pretended to fight the dragon. They made loud noises and moved the box. They had a lot of fun. They imagined that they were in a castle. They made a lovely thing with the box.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play together. Today they play with blocks. They build a big tower with many colors.
+
+"Look at our tower!" Lily says. "It is so tall and pretty!"
+
+"Yes, it is!" Ben says. "We are good at building!"
+
+They smile and clap their hands. They are proud of their tower.
+
+But then a big dog comes. The dog is curious. He wants to see the tower. He runs to the tower and sniffs it. He bumps it with his nose.
+
+Oh no! The tower falls down. The blocks make a loud noise. Lily and Ben are sad. They cry.
+
+"Bad dog!" Lily says. "You broke our tower!"
+
+"Go away!" Ben says. "You are not nice!"
+
+The dog is sorry. He did not mean to break the tower. He wags his tail and licks their faces. He wants to be their friend.
+
+Lily and Ben stop crying. They look at the dog. He is cute and soft. They pet him and hug him.
+
+"Maybe you are not so bad," Lily says. "You just wanted to play."
+
+"Yes, maybe we can play with you," Ben says. "But not with our blocks."
+
+They find a ball and throw it. The dog chases the ball and brings it back. They laugh and have fun. They are happy again.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play at the park. They liked to swing on the swings, slide on the slides, and run on the grass. One day, they saw a big picnic table with many yummy things to eat. There were sandwiches, cookies, fruits, and salad.
+
+"Wow, look at all the food!" Ben said. "I am very hungry. Do you think we can have some?"
+
+Lily shook her head. "No, Ben. That is not our food. That is for the people who are having a party. We have to ask first."
+
+But Ben did not listen. He ran to the table and grabbed a big plate of salad. He thought it looked green and crunchy. He took a big bite and made a face. He did not like it at all. It was bitter and sour.
+
+"Yuck, this is bad!" he said. He spit out the salad and threw the plate on the ground. He ran back to Lily.
+
+But then, he heard a loud voice. It was a man who was very angry. He was the owner of the food. He saw Ben's mess and shouted at him.
+
+"Hey, you little thief! How dare you take my food and waste it! You should be ashamed of yourself! Go away and don't come back!"
+
+Ben was scared and sad. He felt ashamed of what he did. He said sorry to the man, but the man did not forgive him. He told him to leave the park.
+
+Lily was also sad. She did not like to see Ben in trouble. She wished he had listened to her. She took his hand and walked with him. She said to him:
+
+"Ben, you made a bad choice. You should not take things that are not yours. You should always ask first. And you should not be rude to the food. Some people like salad. You should try new things, but you should not waste them. Maybe next time, you will be more careful and polite."
+
+Ben nodded. He felt sorry for what he did. He said to Lily:
+
+"Lily, you are a good friend. You are right. I made a bad choice. I will not do it again. I will be more careful and polite. And maybe, I will try salad again. But only a little bit."
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to do everything together. They play with the same toys, eat the same food, and wear the same clothes. But one day, their mom says they have to go to the store and buy new clothes. She says they are growing too fast and their old clothes are too small.
+
+Lily and Ben do not want to go to the store. They do not like to try on new clothes. They think it is boring and hard. They want to stay home and play. But their mom says they have to go. She says they can pick one thing they like from the store, as long as it is not too expensive.
+
+At the store, Lily and Ben see many clothes. Some are red, some are blue, some are green, some are yellow. Some have stripes, some have dots, some have flowers, some have stars. Lily and Ben do not know what to pick. They like all the colors and all the patterns. They want to wear the same clothes as before.
+
+But their mom says they have to separate. She says they have to go to different sections of the store. She says Lily has to go to the girls' section and Ben has to go to the boys' section. She says they have to find clothes that fit them and that they like.
+
+Lily and Ben do not want to separate. They want to stay together. They do not like the girls' section and the boys' section. They think they are too different and too boring. They want to wear the same clothes as each other.
+
+But their mom says they have to separate. She says it is time to grow up and be more independent. She says they can still play together and love each other, but they have to wear different clothes. She says they will look nice and feel comfortable in their new clothes.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They do not want to grow up and be more independent. They do not want to look nice and feel comfortable. They want to be the same and have fun. They do not want to separate. They want to be twins.
+Lily and Tom love to play outside. They like to run, jump, swing and slide. They have a lot of fun with their toys and their dog. But today, they cannot play outside. It is raining. The rain is wet and cold and makes the ground muddy.
+
+Lily and Tom are sad. They sit on the couch and stare at the window. They see the rain falling and the sky is gray. They wish the rain would stop and the sun would come out. They do not know what to do inside. They are bored.
+
+Mom sees Lily and Tom. She smiles and says, "Do not be sad, my loves. We can still have fun inside. I have a surprise for you. Come with me." She takes them to the kitchen. On the table, there are many things. There are cups, spoons, bowls, flour, sugar, eggs, butter, chocolate and sprinkles. Mom says, "We are going to make cookies. Cookies are yummy and easy to make. Do you want to help me?"
+
+Lily and Tom nod and smile. They love cookies. They wash their hands and put on aprons. Mom shows them how to measure, mix, roll and cut the dough. They use different shapes, like stars, hearts, circles and flowers. They put the cookies on a tray and Mom puts them in the oven. They wait and smell the cookies baking. They are excited.
+
+When the cookies are done, Mom takes them out and lets them cool. Then she gives Lily and Tom some icing and sprinkles. They decorate the cookies with different colors and patterns. They make them look pretty and tasty. They are proud of their work. Mom says, "You did a great job, my loves. These are the most perfect cookies I have ever seen. You can eat some now and share some with your friends later."
+
+Lily and Tom eat some cookies and drink some milk. They say, "Thank you, Mom. These are the best cookies ever. We love you." Mom hugs them and says, "I love you too, my loves. You are welcome. You made this rainy day a perfect day." They look at the window and see the rain still falling. But they do not mind. They are happy. They have cookies and they have Mom. They have everything they need.
+Lily and Tom were hungry. They wanted to eat beef for lunch. Mom said she would cook beef for them. She put the beef in a big pot with water and salt. She turned on the fire.
+
+"Can we help you, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, you can. You can pour some sauce on the beef when it is ready. The sauce is in the bottle on the table. It is black and sweet," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They waited for the beef to cook. They smelled the beef. It smelled good. They saw the steam come out of the pot. They heard the water bubble.
+
+"Is the beef ready, Mom?" Tom asked.
+
+"Yes, it is. Turn off the fire and be careful. The pot is hot. I will put the beef on a plate. You can pour the sauce on it," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom took the bottle of sauce. They poured some sauce on the beef. The sauce was black and shiny. It made the beef look yummy.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. The beef looks delicious. Can we eat now?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, you can. But don't eat too fast. The beef is hot. Blow on it first. Enjoy your lunch," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom smiled. They took their forks and knives. They cut the beef and put it in their mouths. They chewed and swallowed. The beef was tender and juicy. The sauce was sweet and tasty. They liked the beef very much.
+
+"Mom, this is the best beef ever. You are a great cook. We love you," Lily and Tom said.
+
+Mom hugged them. She was happy. She loved them too. They ate their lunch together. They were a happy family.
+Lily and Max were playing with cards. They liked to make houses and towers with them. But Max was clumsy. He knocked down Lily's house by mistake.
+
+"Max, you are bad! You broke my house!" Lily shouted. She was angry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. It was an accident. I didn't mean to break it." Max said. He was sad.
+
+"No, you are not sorry. You are mean. Go away!" Lily said. She pushed Max.
+
+Max pushed Lily back. "No, you go away! You are mean too. You don't share your cards." He said.
+
+They started to fight. They pulled each other's hair and scratched each other's faces. They made a lot of noise.
+
+Mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw them fighting and the cards all over the floor. She was not happy.
+
+"Stop it, both of you! What are you doing? Why are you fighting?" Mom asked.
+
+They stopped fighting and looked at Mom. They felt ashamed.
+
+"We were playing with cards, but Max broke my house and I got mad." Lily said.
+
+"I didn't do it on purpose, but Lily pushed me and I got mad too." Max said.
+
+Mom sighed. She picked up the cards and put them in a box. She took Lily and Max to the couch.
+
+"Listen, kids. I know you like to play with cards, but you have to be careful and gentle. Cards are not for fighting. They are for having fun. And you have to be nice and respectful to each other. You are brother and sister. You should love each other, not hurt each other. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They felt sorry.
+
+"We understand, Mom. We are sorry. We love each other." They said.
+
+They hugged each other and said sorry again. Mom smiled and hugged them too.
+
+"Good. I'm glad you are sorry. Now, why don't you play something else? Something that doesn't make you fight." Mom said.
+
+"Okay, Mom. How about we play with blocks?" Lily said.
+
+"Or with dolls?" Max said.
+
+They agreed to play with both. They took their toys and went to their room. They played nicely and had fun. They didn't fight anymore. Mom was proud of them.
+Sara liked to dream. She dreamed of many things. She dreamed of flying in the sky. She dreamed of swimming in the sea. She dreamed of playing with furry animals.
+
+One day, Sara saw a big mixer in the kitchen. It was shiny and noisy. She wanted to touch it. She asked her mom, "What is that?"
+
+Her mom said, "That is a mixer. It helps me make cakes and cookies. Do you want to help me?"
+
+Sara nodded. She liked cakes and cookies. Her mom lifted her up and put her on a stool. She gave her a bowl and a spoon. She said, "You can mix the flour and the sugar. Be careful, don't spill."
+
+Sara was happy. She mixed the flour and the sugar. She felt the soft and sweet powder. She smelled the yummy smell. She said, "This is fun!"
+
+Her mom smiled. She said, "Yes, it is. And soon we will have delicious treats. Do you know what we need next?"
+
+Sara thought. She remembered her dreams. She said, "We need eggs and milk and butter. And we need furry animals!"
+
+Her mom laughed. She said, "Furry animals? Why do we need furry animals?"
+
+Sara said, "Because they are cute and soft and I like them. Can we put them in the mixer?"
+
+Her mom said, "No, no, no. We can't put furry animals in the mixer. That would be bad. Furry animals are not for mixing. They are for petting and loving. Maybe we can find some furry animals later. But first, let's finish our cake. OK?"
+
+Sara said, "OK. But I still dream of furry animals."
+
+Her mom said, "That's OK. You can dream of anything you want. Dreams are wonderful. And so are you."
+Anna and Ben were friends who liked to play outside in summer. They had a big yard with a swing, a slide and a sandbox. They also had a dog named Spot who was very friendly and liked to chase balls.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben were playing with Spot in the yard. They threw a ball for him and he ran after it. But then they heard a loud noise from the street. It was a big truck that was honking its horn. Spot got scared and ran away from the ball. He ran towards the street.
+
+"Spot, no!" Anna and Ben shouted. They were worried that Spot would get hurt by the truck. They ran after him, but the gate was closed. They tried to open it, but it was locked.
+
+"Let us out, let us out!" they cried. They banged on the gate and hoped that someone would hear them.
+
+Their mom was inside the house. She was making lunch for them. She heard their cries and looked out the window. She saw them at the gate and Spot on the street. She was worried too. She ran outside and unlocked the gate.
+
+"Mom, mom, thank you!" Anna and Ben said. They hugged their mom and ran to Spot. The truck had stopped and the driver had gotten out. He was holding Spot and petting him. He was not angry. He was glad that Spot was not hurt.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids. I didn't see him until he was in front of me. He's a lucky dog. He's not hurt at all. Just a bit shaken," the driver said. He gave Spot back to Anna and Ben. They thanked him and apologized for Spot's running away.
+
+They took Spot back to the yard and gave him some water and a treat. They hugged him and told him they loved him. They were happy that he was safe. They decided to play with him inside the house for a while. They did not want him to run away again. They also thanked their mom for saving them. She smiled and said she loved them too. She was happy that they were all safe. She said they could have lunch together and then play outside again. But this time, they would keep the gate locked.
+Lily loved her bear very much. She took him everywhere she went. She hugged him when she was happy and when she was sad. She gave him a name: Brownie.
+
+One day, Lily and her mom went to the park. Lily brought Brownie with her. She played on the swings, the slide and the sandbox. She had a lot of fun. But then, she saw a big dog. The dog was barking and running towards her. Lily was scared. She ran to her mom and hid behind her.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, the dog is scary!" Lily cried.
+
+"Don't worry, honey, the dog won't hurt you. He just wants to play. See, his owner is coming to get him." Mommy said.
+
+Lily peeked from behind her mom and saw a man with a leash. He called the dog and the dog ran to him. The man said sorry to Lily and her mom. He said his dog was friendly and liked to chase toys.
+
+Lily felt better. She smiled and said it was okay. She looked for Brownie to hug him. But she couldn't find him. She looked around and saw the dog had Brownie in his mouth. The dog was shaking Brownie and making him dirty.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, the dog has Brownie!" Lily shouted.
+
+"Oh no, honey, we have to get him back. Come on, let's go to the man and ask him to remove the bear from the dog's mouth." Mommy said.
+
+They ran to the man and the dog. Mommy asked the man politely to take Brownie from the dog. The man said sorry again and took Brownie from the dog. He gave Brownie to Lily. Lily was very happy. She thanked the man and hugged Brownie.
+
+"Are you okay, Brownie?" Lily asked.
+
+Brownie didn't answer. He was a toy. But Lily pretended he said yes. She kissed him and said she loved him.
+
+"Let's go home, honey. We can wash Brownie and make him clean and cozy." Mommy said.
+
+"Okay, mommy. Thank you for helping me and Brownie." Lily said.
+
+They left the park and went home. Lily and Brownie were safe and happy. They were best friends.
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play in the bath. They had many toys and bubbles and shampoo. One day, their mom gave them a new shampoo that smelled like flowers. She said it was amazing and would make their hair shiny and soft.
+
+"Can I try it first?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, me first!" Max said.
+
+They both reached for the shampoo bottle and started to pull. They did not answer their mom when she told them to stop and share. They pulled harder and harder until the bottle popped open and the shampoo spilled everywhere. It got in their eyes and mouth and nose and made them cry.
+
+Their mom came and helped them wash off the shampoo. She was not happy. She said they wasted the amazing shampoo and made a big mess. She said they should have listened to her and been nice to each other. She said they had to clean up the bath and go to bed early.
+
+Lily and Max felt sorry. They said they were sorry to their mom and to each other. They helped clean up the bath and hugged each other. They learned that sharing is better than fighting and that they should answer their mom when she talks to them. They promised to be good twins and use the shampoo nicely next time.
+Sara loves music. She likes to sing and dance and clap her hands. She has a toy piano that makes music when she presses the keys. She likes to touch the keys and hear the sounds.
+
+One day, Sara's mom has a surprise for her. She takes her to a big place with many people and chairs. She says they are going to see a music show. Sara is excited and curious. She wonders what kind of music they will hear.
+
+They sit in a chair and wait. Soon, the lights go down and the music starts. Sara hears a big sound like a drum. She sees a man with a stick hitting a big round thing. She hears a soft sound like a bird. She sees a woman with a long stick and a wooden thing with strings. She hears a loud sound like a horn. She sees a man with a metal thing with buttons and a tube. She hears many other sounds and sees many other people with different things that make music. She is amazed and happy. She claps her hands and smiles.
+
+At the end of the show, the people who make music stand up and bow. The people who watch the show clap and cheer. Sara's mom tells her that the people who make music are called musicians. She says they work hard and practice a lot to make music. She says they are proud of their music and want to share it with others. She asks Sara if she likes the music. Sara nods and says yes. She says she wants to be a musician too. She says she wants to touch the things that make music and make her own music. Sara's mom hugs her and says she is proud of her too. She says she will help her learn and play music. Sara is happy and grateful. She loves music and her mom.
+Sara and Ben were bored. They wanted to play, but it was raining outside. They asked their mom if they could go to the attic. Mom said yes, but be careful.
+
+The attic was dark and dusty. Sara and Ben saw many old things. They saw a big trunk, a rocking horse, a lamp, and a scale. They wondered what was inside the trunk.
+
+"Let's open it!" Sara said.
+
+"OK, but it looks heavy," Ben said.
+
+They pushed and pulled, but the trunk did not move. They tried to lift it, but it was too hard. They decided to use the scale.
+
+"Maybe we can weigh the trunk and see how heavy it is," Ben said.
+
+They dragged the scale next to the trunk. Sara climbed on the scale and read the number.
+
+"I weigh 30 pounds," she said.
+
+"Me too," Ben said, after he took his turn.
+
+They tried to lift the trunk together and put it on the scale. But it was still too hard. They gave up and sat on the floor.
+
+"This is no fun," Sara said.
+
+"Maybe there is something else we can play with," Ben said.
+
+They looked around and saw the rocking horse. It was brown and soft. They took turns riding it. They pretended they were cowboys and cowgirls. They had fun.
+
+The rocking horse was comfortable. Sara and Ben felt sleepy. They snuggled on the horse and closed their eyes. They dreamed of sunny days and green fields.
+
+Mom came to the attic and saw them. She smiled and covered them with a blanket. She kissed them and whispered, "Sweet dreams, my little ones."
+Lila and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big slide and run to it. Lila goes first and slides down fast. She laughs and says, "That was fun!"
+
+Ben goes next and slides down too. But he feels something on his leg. He looks and sees a red spot. It is an itch. He scratches it and says, "Ow, ow, ow!"
+
+Lila sees Ben's itch and says, "What is that? Did you get a bite?"
+
+Ben says, "I don't know. Maybe a bug bit me. It hurts and itches."
+
+Lila says, "Let's go to mom. She can help you."
+
+They run to their mom, who is sitting on a bench. She sees Ben's itch and says, "Oh, poor Ben. You have a rash. Maybe you slid on something that made you allergic. Let me put some cream on it. It will make it better."
+
+She takes out a tube of cream from her bag and squeezes some on Ben's leg. She rubs it gently and says, "There, there. Does that feel better?"
+
+Ben says, "Yes, thank you, mom. It feels less itchy."
+
+Lila says, "Can we play some more, mom?"
+
+Mom says, "Yes, you can. But be careful. Don't slide on anything that might make you itch again."
+
+Lila and Ben say, "Okay, mom. We will."
+
+They hug their mom and run back to the park. They see a swing and a sandbox. They decide to play there. They have fun and forget about the itch. They are happy.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with stuff in the park. They have a ball, a doll, a car and a book. They share the stuff and have fun.
+
+One day, a big boy comes to the park. He sees the stuff and wants it. He takes the ball from Tom and the doll from Mia. He says, "This is my stuff now. Go away!"
+
+Tom and Mia are sad and angry. They want their stuff back. They say, "No, this is our stuff. Give it back, please!"
+
+The big boy laughs and says, "No, I don't want to. You are too small and weak. I am big and strong. I can have whatever I want."
+
+Tom and Mia are scared and cry. They don't know what to do. They look for help.
+
+A lady sees them and hears them. She is kind and brave. She goes to the big boy and says, "Hey, you. What are you doing? Why are you taking their stuff? That is not nice. That is mean. You should be sorry and give it back, please!"
+
+The big boy is surprised and ashamed. He sees the lady and knows she is right. He says, "I'm sorry. I was wrong. I was greedy and rude. Here is your stuff. I don't want it anymore."
+
+Tom and Mia are happy and grateful. They say, "Thank you, lady. Thank you for helping us. You are nice and good. You are our friend."
+
+The lady smiles and says, "You're welcome, kids. You are nice and good, too. You are my friends. Now, go and play with your stuff and have fun."
+Lily and Ben were playing in their room. They had a toy phone and a toy camera. They liked to pretend they were making shows for their friends.
+
+"Let's record a show about our clothes," Lily said. "We can show them our hats and dresses and shoes."
+
+"OK," Ben said. "You be the host and I be the camera man."
+
+Lily put on a hat and a dress. She took a hanger from the closet and held it like a microphone. She smiled at the camera.
+
+"Hello, friends," she said. "Welcome to Lily's Fashion Show. Today I will show you some of my favorite clothes. Look at this hat. It is pink and fluffy. It keeps my head warm and cozy. Do you like it?"
+
+Ben nodded and said, "Yes, it is very nice. What else do you have?"
+
+Lily took off the hat and put on another one. It was blue and had a flower on it. She said, "This is my other hat. It is blue and pretty. It has a flower on it. It makes me happy. Do you like it?"
+
+Ben shook his head and said, "No, I don't like it. It is too girly. I like boy hats."
+
+Lily felt sad. She said, "But I like it. It is my hat. You should not say mean things about my hat."
+
+Ben said, "Sorry, Lily. I did not mean to hurt your feelings. I just have a different taste. You can like your hat and I can like mine. We can still be friends."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "You are right, Ben. We can have different tastes and still be friends. That is a good lesson for our show. Thank you for being my camera man."
+
+Ben said, "You are welcome, Lily. Thank you for being my host. You are very good at it. Can we have a snack now? I am hungry."
+
+Lily said, "Sure, Ben. Let's go to the kitchen and see what Mom has for us. Maybe she has something tasty for us to eat."
+
+They turned off the camera and the phone and ran to the kitchen. They hugged Mom and asked for a snack. Mom gave them some cookies and milk. They said, "Thank you, Mom. You are the best."
+
+Mom said, "You are welcome, my sweeties. I love you both. Did you have fun playing in your room?"
+
+Lily and Ben said, "Yes, Mom. We had fun. We recorded a show about our clothes. We learned that we can have different tastes and still be friends."
+
+Mom said, "That is a wonderful lesson. I am proud of you. Can I watch your show later?"
+
+Lily and Ben said, "Yes, Mom. We will show you our show later. We hope you like it."
+
+They ate their cookies and drank their milk. They were happy and full. They loved their Mom and each other. They had a good day.
+Tom and Lily were loyal friends. They liked to play in the park with their ball. One day, a mean man came and took their ball. He put it in a big sack and ran away.
+
+"Hey, that's our ball!" Tom shouted. "Give it back!"
+
+"No, it's mine now!" the mean man said. "You can't catch me!"
+
+Tom and Lily ran after the mean man. They were fast and brave. They saw him go into a dark house. They followed him inside.
+
+The house was full of sacks. The mean man had taken many things from other children. He had bikes, dolls, books, and more. He laughed and threw the ball into a sack.
+
+"Ha ha, you can't find your ball now!" he said. "It's lost in my sack pile!"
+
+Tom and Lily were sad and angry. They wanted their ball back. They looked at the sacks. They saw a small hole in one of them. They had an idea.
+
+"Quick, Lily, get in the sack!" Tom whispered. "I'll push you to the ball."
+
+Lily nodded. She was scared, but she trusted Tom. She crawled into the hole. Tom pushed the sack to the other side of the pile. He hoped Lily would find the ball.
+
+Lily felt many things in the sack. She felt a bike, a doll, a book, and more. She kept looking for the ball. She found it at the bottom of the sack. She grabbed it and smiled.
+
+"I found it, Tom!" she shouted. "I have the ball!"
+
+Tom heard her. He was happy. He pulled the sack back to the hole. He helped Lily get out. They hugged and held the ball.
+
+"Yay, we did it!" Tom said. "We escaped with the ball!"
+
+The mean man heard them. He was angry. He ran to the sack pile. He saw the hole. He saw Tom and Lily with the ball.
+
+"Hey, you little thieves!" he yelled. "Give me back my ball!"
+
+But Tom and Lily were faster. They ran out of the house. They ran to the park. They played with their ball. They were loyal friends. They were happy.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a new pole in the park. It is shiny and tall.
+
+"Look, a new pole!" Anna says. "Let's play with it."
+
+"OK, what do we do?" Ben asks.
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She has an idea. "Let's pretend we are getting married. You can be the groom and I can be the bride. The pole can be the priest."
+
+Ben nods. He likes to pretend. He takes Anna's hand and they walk to the pole. Anna puts a flower in her hair. Ben finds a ring on the ground.
+
+"Do you, Anna, take Ben to be your husband?" the pole says in Anna's voice.
+
+"I do," Anna says.
+
+"Do you, Ben, take Anna to be your wife?" the pole says in Ben's voice.
+
+"I do," Ben says.
+
+"Then you may kiss the bride," the pole says.
+
+Anna and Ben giggle. They give each other a peck on the cheek. They are happy. They are married.
+Tim and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. Tim had a big truck and Lily had a doll. Tim liked to make loud noises with his truck and pretend to crash into things. Lily liked to dress up her doll and comb her hair.
+
+"Tim, stop it!" Lily said. "You are too noisy and you are messing up my doll's clothes."
+
+"I don't care," Tim said. "I like my truck and I can do what I want."
+
+He drove his truck towards Lily's doll and knocked it over. Lily cried and picked up her doll.
+
+"That's not nice, Tim!" she said. "You hurt my doll and you made me sad."
+
+Tim laughed and showed his teeth. He had a mean smile. He did not care about Lily's feelings.
+
+Lily was angry and hurt. She wanted to make Tim stop. She looked around and saw Tim's truck. She had an idea. She grabbed the truck and ran to the kitchen.
+
+"Hey, give that back!" Tim shouted. He followed Lily to the kitchen.
+
+Lily reached the trash can and threw the truck inside. She heard a loud clang and a crunch.
+
+"Ha, ha!" she said. "Now your truck is gone. How do you like that?"
+
+Tim was shocked and angry. He ran to the trash can and tried to get his truck back. But it was too late. The truck was broken and dirty. He could not remove it from the trash.
+
+He started to cry and scream. He did not understand why Lily did that. He was confused and sad.
+
+Lily did not feel happy either. She felt sorry for Tim and for what she did. She wished she could take it back. But she could not.
+
+They both cried and cried. They did not play together anymore. They did not smile anymore. They had a bad ending.
+Anna and Ben are eager to travel to the snow. They have never seen snow before. They pack their warm clothes, their hats and their gloves. They say goodbye to their mom and dad and get in the car with their aunt.
+
+"Auntie, how long until we get to the snow?" Anna asks.
+
+"Not too long, sweetie. Just a few more hills and then we will see the white flakes," auntie says.
+
+Ben looks out the window and sees the trees and the cows and the birds. He wonders how they stay warm in the cold. He hopes the snow is soft and fluffy and fun.
+
+They drive and drive and then they see it. The snow! It covers the ground and the roofs and the branches. It sparkles in the sun. Anna and Ben clap and cheer.
+
+"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Anna says.
+
+"Can we make a snowman?" Ben asks.
+
+"Of course you can. But first, let's put on our boots and our coats. It's very cold outside," auntie says.
+
+They get out of the car and feel the cold air on their faces. They run to the snow and touch it with their hands. It's cold and wet and slippery. They laugh and throw snowballs and make snow angels. They find a big pile of snow and roll it into a ball. They make another ball and another ball and stack them up. They find a carrot and a hat and some buttons and make a face for their snowman.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Snowman!" Anna says.
+
+"Nice to meet you!" Ben says.
+
+They hug their snowman and take a picture with him. They are happy and cold and eager to play more. They love the snow. They love to travel.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys and draw pictures. Sara has a new box of crayons. She can make many colors on the paper. Tom wants to use the crayons too, but Sara says no. She says they are her crayons and she does not want to share.
+
+Tom is jealous. He thinks Sara is not nice. He wants to make a picture with the crayons. He waits for Sara to go to the bathroom. When Sara is gone, he takes the crayons and starts to draw. He makes a big sun and a house and a tree. He is happy.
+
+Sara comes back. She sees Tom with her crayons. She is angry. She runs to Tom and grabs the crayons. She says, "Give me back my crayons! They are mine! You are a bad friend!"
+
+Tom says, "No, I want to finish my picture! You are a mean friend! You never share!"

+They hug. They pick up the crayons and the paper. They decide to make a new picture together. They share the crayons and the colors. They make a beautiful picture. They are happy. They are friends.
+Sara loves to play in the garden. She likes to look at the flowers and smell them. She sees many different flowers. Some are red, some are yellow, some are pink, some are purple. They are all colorful and pretty.
+
+Sara wants to pick a flower for her mom. She thinks her mom will like a flower. She walks around the garden and looks at all the flowers. She sees a big sunflower, a small rose, a long tulip, and a round daisy. She does not know which one to pick. She has to choose.
+
+She thinks about the flowers. She likes the sunflower, but it is too big. She likes the rose, but it has thorns. She likes the tulip, but it is too long. She likes the daisy, but it is too simple. She is not happy. She wants to find the best flower for her mom.
+
+Then she sees something. She sees a patch of daisies. They are not all the same. Some are white, some are yellow, some are pink, some are purple. They are all colorful and pretty. They look like a rainbow. Sara smiles. She likes the daisies. She thinks her mom will like them too.
+
+She runs to the patch of daisies. She picks one of each color. She holds them in her hand. They are soft and sweet. She is happy. She has chosen the best flowers for her mom.

+Ben and Sam are friends. They like to play with toys and run in the park. One day, they see a small dog with a bow on its head. The dog is very cute and friendly. It wags its tail and licks their hands.
+
+"Can we pet the dog?" Ben asks.
+
+"Yes, but be gentle," a voice says. It is the dog's owner, a lady with a hat. "Her name is Lila. She is a good dog, but she has a mark on her leg. She was hurt by a big dog that was mean to her."
+
+Ben and Sam look at the mark. It is a scar that is red and bumpy. They feel sorry for Lila.
+
+"Does it hurt?" Sam asks.
+
+"Sometimes, but not too much. She is brave and strong. She still likes to play and have fun. She does not let the mark stop her from being happy," the lady says.
+
+Ben and Sam smile. They pet Lila and give her a hug. They learn that the mark does not make Lila less beautiful or less lovable. They also learn that they should be kind to animals and people who have marks or scars. They thank the lady and say goodbye to Lila. They hope to see her again.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big book on a bench. The book has many pictures of animals.
+
+"Look, Tom, a book!" Lily says. "Let's study it!"
+
+They open the book and turn the pages. They see a lion, a monkey, a giraffe, and many other animals. They say the names of the animals and make their sounds.
+
+"Roar!" Tom says, pretending to be a lion.
+
+"Ooh-ooh-ah-ah!" Lily says, jumping like a monkey.
+
+They have fun with the book. Then they see a picture of a kangaroo. They have never seen a kangaroo before.
+
+"What is this?" Tom asks, pointing at the kangaroo.
+
+"It is a kangaroo," Lily reads from the book. "It can hop very high and far. It has a pouch to carry its baby. It is flexible."
+
+"Flexible? What does that mean?" Tom asks.
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She bends her arm and twists her body.
+
+"Flexible means you can bend and twist like this," she says.
+
+Tom tries to bend and twist like Lily, but he falls down.
+
+"Ouch! I am not flexible," he says.
+
+Lily helps him up. She laughs.
+
+"Maybe you need to practice more," she says.
+
+They close the book and put it back on the bench. They decide to play hopscotch instead. They hop like kangaroos and have fun. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily were poor. They did not have much money to buy food and toys. One day, they found a big bag of money in the park. They were very happy and excited.
+
+"Look, Lily, we are rich now!" Tom said. "We can buy anything we want!"
+
+"But what if someone sees us with the money?" Lily asked. "They might take it away from us."
+
+Tom thought for a moment. He had an idea. "Let's bury the money under the big tree. Then no one will find it. We can come back later and dig it up."
+
+Lily agreed. They took the bag of money and ran to the big tree. They dug a hole with their hands and put the money inside. Then they covered it with dirt and leaves.
+
+"Good, now the money is safe," Tom said. "Let's go home and come back tomorrow."
+
+They left the park and went home. They did not tell anyone about the money.
+
+The next day, they went back to the park. They ran to the big tree and looked for the hole. But they could not find it. Someone had dug up the money and taken it away.
+
+Tom and Lily were very sad and angry. They cried and shouted.
+
+"Who took our money?" Tom asked. "It was ours!"
+
+"I don't know," Lily said. "Maybe it was a bad person. Or maybe it was the owner of the money. Maybe we should not have taken it in the first place."
+
+They realized they had made a mistake. They felt sorry and ashamed. They learned a lesson. They decided to work hard and save money instead of stealing it. They also decided to be honest and kind to others. They hoped that one day, they would not be poor anymore.
+Lily and Ben were playing pirates in the garden. They had a big cardboard box for a ship, a stick for a sword and a scarf for a flag. They pretended to sail the seas and look for treasure.
+
+"Ahoy, matey!" Ben shouted. "Do you see any land?"
+
+Lily looked around and pointed to a tree. "There! There is an island with a hook!"
+
+"A hook?" Ben asked. "What do you mean?"
+
+Lily ran to the tree and showed him a metal hook hanging from a branch. "Look! Someone left a hook here. Maybe it belongs to a real pirate!"
+
+Ben was curious. He wanted to see the hook too. He followed Lily to the tree and reached for the hook. But the hook was too high for him. He jumped and stretched, but he could not touch it.
+
+"Let me help you," Lily said. She was generous and kind. She climbed on the box and lifted Ben up. Then he could grab the hook.
+
+"Wow, this is cool!" Ben said. He swung the hook around and pretended to fight with it. "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend."
+
+Lily smiled. She was happy to share with Ben. She joined him in playing with the hook. They had fun together.
+
+They imagined that the hook was a magic key that opened a chest full of gold and jewels. They pretended to find the chest and share the treasure. They were the best pirate team ever.
+Anna liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had long hair, a pink dress, and a smile. Anna took Lily everywhere she went.
+
+One day, Anna went to the park with her mom. She saw a boy playing with a truck. The boy was Sam. Sam was Anna's friend. He liked to play with trucks, cars, and planes. Anna wanted to play with Sam.
+
+"Hi, Sam. Can I play with you?" Anna asked.
+
+"Hi, Anna. Sure, you can play with me. Do you like trucks?" Sam said.
+
+"I like trucks. They are fast and loud. Can I try your truck?" Anna said.
+
+"OK, you can try my truck. But you have to lend me your doll. I want to see her hair and dress." Sam said.
+
+Anna thought for a moment. She loved Lily, but she also wanted to play with the truck. She decided to lend Sam her doll. She gave Lily to Sam and took the truck. She drove the truck on the grass and made noises.
+
+Sam looked at Lily. He did not like dolls. He thought they were boring and silly. He wanted to see what would happen if he pulled her hair and ripped her dress. He was ignorant. He did not know that Anna cared for Lily very much.
+
+He pulled Lily's hair and ripped her dress. Lily's hair came off and her dress tore. Sam laughed. He thought it was funny. He did not see that Anna was watching him. Anna saw what Sam did to Lily. She felt sad and angry. She ran to Sam and took Lily back. She cried.
+
+"Sam, you are mean! You hurt Lily! You are not my friend anymore! Give me back my truck!" Anna shouted.
+
+"Anna, I was just playing. It was a joke. Don't cry. Here, take your truck." Sam said.
+
+"No, I don't want your truck. I want Lily. You are a bad boy. I will tell my mom. She is a lawyer. She will make you say sorry and fix Lily." Anna said.
+
+Anna ran to her mom with Lily in her arms. She told her mom what Sam did. Her mom hugged her and said she was sorry. She said she would talk to Sam's mom and make him apologize and pay for Lily's repair. She said she was proud of Anna for standing up for herself and her doll. She said she loved her and Lily very much. Anna felt better. She thanked her mom and hugged Lily. She hoped Lily would be OK. She learned that not everyone was nice and that she had to be careful who she lent her things to. She also learned that her mom was a good lawyer and a good mom. She smiled.
+Lily and Sam are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But sometimes they want the same thing. Then they fight and cry.
+
+One day, they see a new doll in the shop. The doll has long, pretty hair. Lily and Sam both want the doll. They ask their mom to buy it for them.
+
+"Please, mom, please!" they say. "We love the doll!"
+
+Mom looks at the doll. She sees that it is very expensive. She shakes her head.
+
+"No, my loves, we cannot buy the doll. It is too much money. Maybe another day, okay?"
+
+Lily and Sam are sad. They pout and whine. They do not want to leave the shop.
+
+Mom sighs. She knows they are disappointed. She tries to cheer them up.
+
+"Look, my loves, I have an idea. Why don't we go home and make our own dolls? We have some old socks, buttons, and yarn. We can use the yarn for the hair. It will be fun!"
+
+Lily and Sam think about it. They like to make things. They like to use their imagination. They nod and smile.
+
+"Okay, mom, okay!" they say. "Let's go home and make our own dolls!"
+
+Mom is happy. She hugs them and takes them home. They find some old socks, buttons, and yarn. They start to make their own dolls.
+
+Lily makes a doll with pink hair and blue eyes. She gives her a dress and a bow. She names her Rosie.
+
+Sam makes a doll with brown hair and green eyes. He gives him a shirt and a hat. He names him Max.
+
+They show their dolls to each other. They are proud of their work. They say thank you to mom.
+
+Mom smiles. She is proud of them too. She says they are very patient and creative. She says they can play with their dolls now.
+
+Lily and Sam are happy. They play with their dolls. They share and take turns. They do not fight or cry. They have fun.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pie on a table. It smells good. They want to eat it.
+
+"Who made this pie?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe someone left it for us," Sam says.
+
+They go to the table and try to lift the pie. But it is too heavy. They cannot move it.
+
+"This pie is very heavy. It must weigh a lot," Tom says.
+
+"Maybe it has something inside. Like rocks or metal," Sam says.
+
+They look at the pie. It has a crust and some red stuff on top. They poke it with a stick. It is soft and sticky.
+
+"No, it is not rocks or metal. It is fruit. Maybe apples or cherries," Tom says.
+
+"Yum, I like fruit. Let's eat it," Sam says.
+
+They break the crust and take some bites. It is sweet and juicy. They like it very much.
+
+But then they hear a voice. It is angry and loud.
+
+"Hey, you two! What are you doing with my pie?" the voice says.
+
+They look up and see a man. He is big and strong. He has a hat and a apron. He is the baker. He made the pie.
+
+He comes to the table and grabs the pie. He is powerful. He lifts it with one hand.
+
+"This is my pie. I made it for the fair. It is not for you. You are bad boys. You stole my pie," he says.
+
+Tom and Sam are scared. They drop the pie and run away. They say sorry to the baker. But he is still angry.
+
+They go back to their home. They are sad and hungry. They learned a lesson. They should not take things that are not theirs. They should ask before they eat. They should respect the baker and his pie.
+Sara likes to write. She writes with crayons on paper. She writes her name, and the names of her family and friends. She writes big and small, and in many colors. She writes happy words and funny pictures.
+
+One day, Sara wants to write something new. She looks around the kitchen and sees a pot of spaghetti. She thinks spaghetti is yummy and fun. She has an idea. She takes some spaghetti and puts it on a plate. She uses the spaghetti to write on the plate. She writes "Sara loves Mommy and Daddy".
+
+She is very proud of her spaghetti writing. She shows it to her Mommy and Daddy. They smile and hug her. They say she is very clever and creative. They say they love her too. They take a picture of her spaghetti writing and put it on the fridge.
+
+Sara is happy. She thinks writing is the best. She is a modest girl. She does not brag or show off. She just likes to write and make people happy. She wonders what else she can write with. Maybe with carrots, or cheese, or cookies. She can't wait to try.
+One day, a boy and a girl were playing in the park. They saw a big dog with a ball in its mouth. The boy wanted to play with the dog and the ball, but the girl was afraid of the dog.
+
+"Let's go and say hello to the dog," the boy said. "Maybe he will let us play with his ball."
+
+"No, don't go," the girl said. "The dog might bite us. He might not like us. He might be a bad dog."
+
+The boy did not listen to the girl. He was ignorant. He thought he knew everything. He ran to the dog and tried to take the ball from its mouth. The dog did not like that. The dog growled and barked and snapped at the boy. The boy was scared and ran away.
+
+The girl ran to the boy and hugged him. She was glad he was not hurt. She was not ignorant. She knew some things. She knew that dogs need their space and their toys. She knew that dogs can be good or bad, and we have to be careful.
+
+"Next time, listen to me," the girl said. "Don't go your own way. Don't be ignorant. Let's play together and be safe."
+Lila and Tom are playing in the park. They like to swing, slide and run. They see a big hill with grass and flowers. They want to climb it and see what is on the other side.
+
+"Come on, Tom, let's go!" Lila says. She grabs Tom's hand and they rush to the hill. They are fast and happy.
+
+They reach the top of the hill and look around. They see a pond with ducks and frogs. They see a tree with a nest and eggs. They see a fence with a sign that says "Do not enter".
+
+"What is behind the fence?" Tom asks. He is curious and brave.
+
+"I don't know, let's find out!" Lila says. She is adventurous and bold.
+
+They crawl under the fence and enter a new place. They see a lot of strange things. They see a pile of metal and wires. They see a box with buttons and lights. They see a tube with water and bubbles. They see a spike that is shiny and sharp.
+
+"Wow, this is cool!" Lila says. She touches the spike and feels a pain. She cries out loud.
+
+"Ouch, ouch, ouch! The spike hurt me!" Lila says. She holds her finger and bleeds.
+
+"Are you okay, Lila?" Tom says. He is worried and scared.
+
+"No, I'm not okay, Tom. The spike is bad. We need to go back!" Lila says. She is hurt and sad.
+
+They run back to the fence and crawl under it. They see a man with a coat and glasses. He is angry and stern.
+
+"Hey, you two, what are you doing here? This is a dangerous place. You are not allowed here. You could have been hurt badly. You are very naughty!" The man says. He shouts and points.
+
+"We are sorry, sir. We were just playing. We didn't know. We won't come back. Please don't be mad." Tom says. He is sorry and polite.
+
+Lila says nothing. She is still crying and bleeding. She needs a band-aid and a hug.
+
+They leave the fence and the man. They go back to the hill and the park. They find their mom and dad. They tell them what happened. They get a band-aid and a hug. They learn a lesson.
+
+They never go near the fence and the spike again. They play with other things that are safe and fun. They are flexible and smart. They are still fast and happy.
+There was a prince who lived in a big castle. He had many toys and clothes and books, but he was not happy. He wanted to be famous and have everyone love him. He thought that being famous was the most important thing in the world.
+
+One day, he saw a big balloon in the sky. It was red and yellow and blue and very pretty. He wanted to ride the balloon and see the whole world. He asked his father, the king, if he could go on the balloon. His father said no, it was too dangerous and he had to stay in the castle and learn how to be a good king.
+
+The prince was angry and sad. He waited until his father was asleep and then he sneaked out of the castle. He found the balloon and climbed inside. He pulled a rope and the balloon started to rise. He felt very happy and excited. He thought he was the most famous prince in the world.
+
+But he did not know how to control the balloon. It rose higher and higher and the wind blew it far away from the castle. He saw the mountains and the rivers and the forests, but he also saw the clouds and the storms and the birds. He was scared and cold and lonely. He wished he had listened to his father and stayed in the castle.
+
+He did not know how to make the balloon go down. He cried and cried and hoped someone would help him. He saw a big eagle flying near the balloon. He asked the eagle to help him. The eagle said he would help him, but only if he promised to be a good prince and not be greedy and selfish. The prince said he would. He was sorry for what he had done.
+
+The eagle flew around the balloon and made a hole in it. The air came out and the balloon started to go down. The eagle caught the prince and carried him back to the castle. The king and the queen and the people were very happy to see him. They hugged him and kissed him and told him they loved him. The prince was very happy too. He thanked the eagle and said he had learned his lesson. He said he did not want to be famous anymore. He wanted to be a good king and a good son and a good friend. He said he loved his family and his home and his people. He said he was sorry for being bad.
+
+The eagle smiled and said he was proud of him. He said he had learned the most important thing in the world. He said being famous was not important. Being good was important. He said he hoped he would always remember that. He said goodbye and flew away.
+
+The prince never forgot the eagle and the balloon. He grew up to be a good king and a good person. He was happy and kind and wise. He was not famous, but he was loved. And that was enough.
+Sara and Tom were hungry. They wanted to eat something yummy. Mom said she would make beef stew for them. She asked Sara and Tom to help her.
+
+"Can you stir the pot for me, Sara?" Mom said. She gave Sara a big spoon. Sara nodded and climbed on a chair. She stirred the pot slowly and carefully. She smelled the beef and the carrots and the onions. They smelled lovely.
+
+"Can you set the table for me, Tom?" Mom said. She gave Tom some plates and forks and spoons. Tom nodded and ran to the dining room. He put the plates and forks and spoons on the table. He counted them. One, two, three, four. He smiled.
+
+Mom took the pot off the stove. She poured the beef stew into a big bowl. She carried the bowl to the table. She said, "Be careful, it's hot. Let it cool down a bit."
+
+Sara and Tom sat down on their chairs. They waited for Mom to join them. They said, "Thank you, Mom, for making beef stew. It looks yummy."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "You're welcome, Sara and Tom. Thank you for helping me. You are very good helpers. Now let's enjoy our beef stew together."
+Sara and Ben like to play with paint. They have red, blue, yellow and white paint. They can make different colors by mixing them. Sara wants to make a flag with paint. She says to Ben, "Let's make a flag with paint. We can use red, white and blue."
+
+Ben nods and says, "OK, let's make a flag. How do we make blue?" Sara thinks for a moment and says, "We mix blue and white." Ben says, "That's right. And how do we make red?" Sara says, "We mix red and white." Ben says, "Good. And how do we make the flag?"
+
+Sara says, "We need a big paper. We can draw a rectangle with a pencil. Then we can paint the rectangle with blue. We can use a small brush to make white stars on the blue. Then we can paint two stripes with red and two stripes with white. That's the flag."
+
+Ben says, "That sounds fun. Let's do it." They get a big paper and a pencil. They draw a rectangle and paint it with blue. They make white stars on the blue. They paint red and white stripes. They look at their flag and smile. They say, "We made a flag with paint. It looks fancy."
+
+They show their flag to their mom. She says, "Wow, you made a flag with paint. It looks very fancy. You are very creative. I'm proud of you." She gives them a hug and a kiss. Sara and Ben are happy. They say, "Thank you, mom. We love you." They hang their flag on the wall. They like to play with paint.
+Ben likes to draw with his crayons. He has many colors and he makes pictures of his family, his dog, and his toys. He also has an eraser to fix his mistakes. He keeps his eraser in his desk, next to his crayons.
+
+One day, Ben wants to draw a big sun on his paper. He picks a yellow crayon and starts to make a circle. But he makes the circle too big and it goes outside the paper. He wants to erase the extra part, so he opens his desk and looks for his eraser. But he cannot find it. He sees a brown thing that looks like his eraser, but it is not his eraser. It is something else.
+
+Ben picks up the brown thing and smells it. It smells bad, like old food. He touches it and it feels soft and wet. He realizes that it is his eraser, but it is not fine. It is rot. He does not know how it happened, but he thinks that maybe he left some food in his desk and it made his eraser rot. He feels sad and angry. He throws the rot eraser in the trash and cries.
+
+His mom hears him crying and comes to see what is wrong. She sees his paper with the big sun and the trash with the rot eraser. She hugs him and tells him that it is okay. She says that she will buy him a new eraser and that he can still draw with his crayons. She also tells him to be careful with his food and not to leave it in his desk. She helps him clean his desk and gives him a cookie. Ben feels better and says thank you to his mom. He finishes his sun and shows it to his mom. She says that it is a beautiful sun and that he is a good artist. Ben smiles and hugs his mom. He is happy.
+Tom and Lily went to the shop with Mum. They wanted to buy a present for Dad. It was his birthday soon. They looked at many things in the shop. They saw books, toys, hats, and cups. But they did not know what to buy.
+
+Then they saw a bright watch. It was shiny and had many colours. It looked like a rainbow. Tom and Lily liked the watch. They thought Dad would like it too. They asked Mum if they could buy it.
+
+Mum looked at the watch. She looked at the price. It was very high. She shook her head. "No, my dears, we cannot buy this watch. It is too much money. We have to find something else."
+
+Tom and Lily felt sad. They wanted to make Dad happy. They looked around the shop again. They hoped to find something nice and cheap.
+
+They saw a bright card. It had a big heart and a funny joke. It made them laugh. They looked at the price. It was very low. They smiled. They asked Mum if they could buy it.
+
+Mum looked at the card. She looked at the price. She nodded. "Yes, my dears, we can buy this card. It is not much money. And it is very sweet and funny. I think Dad will love it."
+
+Tom and Lily felt happy. They bought the card. They wrote their names and a kiss. They put it in a bright envelope. They could not wait to give it to Dad. They knew he would smile and hug them. They thought the card was the best present ever.
+Tommy was very tired after playing all day with his toys. He wanted to sleep, but he also wanted to talk to his grandma, who lived far away. He asked his mom if he could use the telephone to call her.
+
+"Sure, honey, you can call grandma. But only for a few minutes, okay? Then you have to go to bed," his mom said.
+
+She gave him the telephone and helped him dial the number. He heard a ring, and then his grandma's voice.
+
+"Hello, who is this?" she asked.
+
+"Hi, grandma, it's me, Tommy!" he said happily.
+
+"Tommy, my sweet boy, how are you? I miss you so much!" she said.
+
+"I'm good, grandma, I had a lot of fun today. I made a big tower with my blocks. It was very impressive. Do you want to see it?" he asked.
+
+He ran to his room with the telephone and showed his grandma his tower through the camera. She praised him and told him he was very clever and creative.
+
+"That's a wonderful tower, Tommy. You are very impressive. I'm so proud of you," she said.
+
+"Thank you, grandma. I love you. Can you sing me a song?" he asked.
+
+"Of course, my dear. I'll sing you your favorite song. But then you have to sleep, okay?" she said.
+
+She sang him a soft and sweet song that made him feel warm and cozy. He closed his eyes and listened to her voice.
+
+"I love you, grandma. Good night," he said.
+
+"I love you too, Tommy. Good night, sweet dreams," she said.
+
+He put the telephone on his pillow and cuddled with his teddy bear. He fell asleep with a smile on his face.
+Mia and Leo are sister and brother. They like to play in the park with their ball. Mia is cheerful and likes to laugh. Leo is shy and likes to watch.
+
+One day, they see a big dog in the park. The dog is friendly and wants to play. He runs to Mia and Leo and barks. Mia is not afraid. She calls the dog and throws the ball. The dog chases the ball and brings it back. Mia and the dog play catch.
+
+Leo is afraid. He hides behind a tree and does not call the dog. He does not want to play. He wants to go home.
+
+Mia sees Leo and stops playing. She runs to him and says, "Leo, why are you hiding? The dog is nice. He wants to be your friend. Come and play with us."
+
+Leo shakes his head and says, "No, Mia. I don't like the dog. He is too big and loud. He scares me. I want to go home."
+
+Mia hugs Leo and says, "It's okay, Leo. I understand. You don't have to play with the dog. But you don't have to be afraid. He won't hurt you. He just wants to have fun. Look, he is wagging his tail. That means he is happy."
+
+Leo looks at the dog and sees that he is wagging his tail. He also sees that he is not barking anymore. He is sitting and waiting. Leo feels a little curious. He says, "Maybe I can try to pet him. Just a little."
+
+Mia smiles and says, "That's a good idea, Leo. Come with me. I will hold your hand. The dog will like it if you pet him. He will be your friend too."
+
+Mia and Leo walk to the dog. The dog wags his tail more and licks their faces. Mia and Leo giggle. They pet the dog and say, "Hello, dog. You are a good dog. Thank you for playing with us."
+
+The dog barks and wags his tail. He is happy. He has two new friends. Mia and Leo are happy too. They have a new friend. They are not afraid anymore. They are cheerful.
+Lily liked to bake pies with her mom. They would mix flour, butter, sugar and fruit in a big bowl. Then they would roll out the dough and put it in a pan. They would make the pie smell good with cinnamon and nutmeg. Lily loved to eat the warm pie with ice cream.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to share her pie with her friend Ben. She asked her mom if she could borrow a piece of pie. Her mom said yes, but only a modest piece. A modest piece is not too big and not too small. Lily cut a modest piece of pie and wrapped it in a napkin. She put it in her backpack and went to Ben's house.
+
+Ben was happy to see Lily. He invited her to play with his toys. They had fun with his cars, his blocks and his train. Lily remembered the pie in her backpack. She said, "Ben, I have a surprise for you. I borrowed a piece of pie from my mom. Do you want to try it?" Ben said, "Yes, please. I love pie. Thank you, Lily."
+
+They went to the kitchen and Lily gave Ben the napkin with the pie. Ben opened it and saw the pie. It looked yummy. He took a bite and said, "Mmm, this is delicious. What kind of pie is it?" Lily said, "It is apple pie. My mom and I made it. Do you like it?" Ben said, "I like it very much. It is the best pie I ever had. You are a good baker, Lily."
+
+Lily and Ben shared the pie and finished it. They were happy and full. They hugged each other and said, "You are a good friend, Lily." "You are a good friend, Ben." They went back to play with the toys until it was time to go home. Lily said, "Bye, Ben. See you tomorrow." Ben said, "Bye, Lily. Thank you for the pie." They waved and smiled. Lily was glad she borrowed a piece of pie for Ben. She knew he liked it. She felt good in her heart.
+Lila and Tom were playing with blocks in the living room. They liked to build towers and houses and bridges with the blocks. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes.
+
+But Tom was selfish. He wanted all the blocks for himself. He did not like to share with Lila. He took the blocks from Lila's hands and put them in his pile. He said, "These are my blocks. You can't have them."
+
+Lila was sad and angry. She said, "That's not fair, Tom. We have to share the blocks. You are being selfish."
+
+Tom said, "No, I'm not. I'm the best at building. You are bad at building. You can't make anything with the blocks."
+
+Lila said, "That's not true, Tom. I can make many things with the blocks. I can make a castle, or a train, or a rocket."
+
+Tom said, "No, you can't. I dare you to make something with the blocks. But you can only use one inch of blocks. That's all you get."
+
+Lila said, "One inch? That's very little. How can I make something with one inch of blocks?"
+
+Tom said, "That's your problem. I dare you. If you can't do it, you have to give me all your blocks."
+
+Lila thought for a moment. She did not want to give Tom all her blocks. She wanted to show him that she could make something with one inch of blocks. She said, "OK, Tom. I accept your dare. But if I do it, you have to share the blocks with me."
+
+Tom said, "Fine. But you won't do it. You will fail."
+
+Lila took one inch of blocks from Tom's pile. She looked at them carefully. She had four blocks: one red, one blue, one yellow, and one green. She thought hard. What could she make with four blocks?
+
+Then she had an idea. She smiled. She put the blocks together in a special way. She made a letter. She made the letter L. She said, "Look, Tom. I made something with one inch of blocks. I made the letter L. L for Lila."
+
+Tom looked at the letter L. He was surprised. He did not think of that. He said, "Wow, Lila. You did it. You made something with one inch of blocks. You are smart."
+
+Lila said, "Thank you, Tom. Do you want to make more letters with me? We can make the alphabet with the blocks. We can share the blocks and learn together."
+
+Tom said, "OK, Lila. That sounds fun. I'm sorry I was selfish. You are a good friend."
+
+Lila said, "I'm sorry I was angry. You are a good friend, too."
+
+They hugged and smiled. They played with the blocks and made the alphabet. They learned and had fun. They were not selfish anymore. They were happy.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes the ball went too far and they had to run after it.
+
+One time, the ball went over the fence and into the street. Anna and Ben looked at each other. They knew they were not allowed to go to the street. It was dangerous. There were big cars and buses that made loud noises and went very fast.
+
+But they also wanted their ball back. It was their favorite ball. It was light and bouncy and had many colors. Anna said, "I have an idea. You stay here and watch. I will go and get the ball. It is not far. I will be quick."
+
+Ben said, "No, Anna, don't go. It is not safe. Mom and Dad will be angry. We can get another ball later. Please stay with me."
+
+But Anna did not listen. She ran to the fence and climbed over it. She saw the ball on the other side of the street. She waited for a moment and then ran across. She did not see the big bus that was coming. The bus driver saw her and honked his horn. He tried to stop, but it was too late.
+
+Ben saw everything and screamed. He was very scared. He wanted to help Anna, but he did not know how. He felt a shock in his chest. He cried and cried.
+
+But then, something amazing happened. A man who was walking on the sidewalk saw Anna and the bus. He ran to her and grabbed her. He pulled her away from the bus just in time. He rescued her. He was very brave.
+
+Anna was also shocked. She did not know what happened. She felt the man's arms around her and heard the bus's brakes. She realized she was in danger. She was very sorry. She hugged the man and thanked him. She said, "You saved me. You are my hero. I was very silly. I should have listened to Ben. I will never do that again."
+
+The man smiled and said, "You are welcome, Anna. I am glad you are okay. But you are right. You should never run to the street. It is very dangerous. You should always stay with your friend and wait for an adult. Promise me you will do that."
+
+Anna nodded and said, "I promise. I am sorry. Can we go back to Ben now? He must be very worried."
+
+The man said, "Of course. Let's go." He took Anna's hand and walked her back to the fence. He helped her climb over it and gave her the ball. He said, "Here is your ball. Be careful with it. And have fun with your friend."
+
+Anna and Ben hugged each other. They were very happy to see each other. They thanked the man again and said goodbye. They learned a very important lesson that day. They never ran to the street again. They always played safely in the park with their ball. And they always listened to each other.
+Tim and Lily were twins who loved to go to the zoo. They liked to see all the different animals and learn their names. One day, they saw a big pool with many seals. The seals were playful and jumped in and out of the water. They made funny noises and clapped their flippers.
+
+"Look, Tim, look!" Lily said. "The seals are so cute and happy. Can we go closer and say hello?"
+
+"OK, Lily, but be careful. Don't touch the fence or fall in the water. The seals might be scared or angry," Tim said.
+
+They walked closer to the pool and waved at the seals. One seal saw them and swam to the edge. It looked at them with big eyes and smiled. It made a loud sound like "Arf, arf!"
+
+"Hello, seal!" Tim and Lily said together. "We are Tim and Lily. We are twins. We like you and your friends. You are very playful and funny."
+
+The seal nodded and arf-ed again. It seemed to like Tim and Lily too. It splashed some water at them and made them laugh. Then it called to the other seals and they all came to the edge. They united and formed a circle around Tim and Lily. They arf-ed and clapped and smiled.
+
+Tim and Lily were so happy. They had made new friends at the zoo. They thanked the seals and said goodbye. They promised to come back and visit them again. The seals waved and cheered. They had also enjoyed meeting Tim and Lily. They hoped to see them again soon.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their blocks. They wanted to build a big bridge over the rug. They put many blocks together and made two towers. Then they put a long block on top of the towers. They had a bridge!
+
+"Look, we did it!" Lily said. "Our bridge is so big and strong!"
+
+"Let's drive our cars on it!" Ben said. He took his red car and pushed it on the bridge. Lily took her blue car and did the same.
+
+They had fun driving their cars on the bridge. They made noises like vroom and beep. They pretended the rug was a river and the bridge was the only way to cross it.
+
+But then, Ben got impatient. He wanted to make the bridge bigger and better. He took some blocks from the towers and added them to the top. The bridge became longer and higher.
+
+"Stop, Ben!" Lily said. "You are making the bridge fall!"
+
+But Ben did not listen. He took more blocks from the towers and put them on the bridge. The bridge became too heavy and wobbly. It started to bend and crack.
+
+"Ben, look out!" Lily shouted.
+
+But it was too late. The bridge broke in the middle and fell down. The blocks flew everywhere. The cars rolled off the rug. Ben and Lily were sad and scared.
+
+They looked at the mess they made. They looked at each other. They both started to cry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Ben said. "I was silly. I tore our bridge."
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," Lily said. "I was angry. I yelled at you."
+
+They hugged each other and said they were sorry. They picked up the blocks and the cars. They decided to build a new bridge together. A bridge that was not too big or too small. A bridge that was just right.
+Tom and Lily liked to jog with their dad every morning. They put on their shoes and hats and followed him to the park. They saw many birds and flowers and people on the way.
+
+One day, they saw a little dog in the park. The dog was alone and looked confused. It had no collar and no leash. Tom and Lily wanted to pet the dog, but their dad said, "Be careful, we don't know if the dog is friendly or not. Maybe it is lost or scared."
+
+They went closer to the dog and said, "Hello, dog. Are you OK? Do you need help?" The dog wagged its tail and licked their hands. It seemed happy to see them. Tom and Lily smiled and hugged the dog.
+
+Their dad said, "The dog likes you, but we can't keep it. Maybe it has a family that is looking for it. We should take it to the vet and see if it has a chip or a tag. Maybe they can find its owner."
+
+Tom and Lily agreed. They picked up the dog and jogged with their dad to the vet. The vet scanned the dog and found a chip. He said, "The dog's name is Spot. He belongs to a lady who lives nearby. She called me this morning and said he ran away from her yard. She was very worried. I will call her and tell her we found him."
+
+Tom and Lily were happy that they helped Spot find his family. They said goodbye to the dog and gave him a treat. The lady came and thanked them for their kindness. She said, "You are very good kids. You did the right thing. Spot is very lucky to have met you."
+
+Tom and Lily learned that it is good to help others, even if they are not the same as you. They also learned that it is important to be careful with animals you don't know. They felt proud and happy. They jogged back home with their dad and told their mom about their adventure.
+Tom and Lily were friends who liked to play in the farm. They liked to run with the dogs, feed the chickens and pick the corn. One day, they saw a big pile of corn near the barn. They wanted to eat some.
+
+"Can we have some corn?" Tom asked the farmer.
+
+The farmer was busy and did not hear them. He shrugged and went inside the barn.
+
+Tom and Lily thought he said yes. They ran to the pile of corn and grabbed some ears. They peeled the husks and bit into the corn. It was sweet and juicy.
+
+"This is perfect corn!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, it is!" Tom agreed.
+
+They ate and ate until their bellies were full. They did not know that the corn was not for them. It was for the pigs. The farmer had put something in the corn to make the pigs fat and sleepy.
+
+Soon, Tom and Lily felt sick and tired. They lay down on the grass and closed their eyes. They did not hear the farmer come out of the barn. He saw them and got angry.
+
+"What are you doing here?" he shouted. "You ate my pig corn! You are in big trouble!"
+
+He picked them up and threw them into the pig pen. The pigs were hungry and angry. They saw Tom and Lily and thought they were food. They ran to them and bit them. Tom and Lily screamed and cried, but no one heard them. They were eaten by the pigs. The end.
+Sara and Tom were friends who liked to play together. One day, Sara got a new fish as a gift from her mom. She was very happy and proud of her fish. She named it Blue and put it in a bowl on her table.
+
+Tom came to visit Sara and saw her fish. He liked it too and wanted to have it. He asked Sara, "Can I own your fish? It is so pretty and shiny."
+
+Sara said, "No, you cannot own my fish. It is mine and I love it. You can look at it, but you cannot touch it or take it."
+
+Tom was angry and jealous. He thought Sara was mean and selfish. He waited until Sara was not looking and grabbed the fish bowl. He ran away with it, hoping to own the fish for himself.
+
+But he did not know how to take care of the fish. He did not give it food or water or a place to swim. He was ignorant and cruel. The fish was sad and scared and soon it died.
+
+Sara found out what Tom did and was very sad and angry. She cried and missed her fish. She did not want to be friends with Tom anymore. She said, "You are a bad friend and a bad person. You stole my fish and killed it. You did not respect me or my fish. You are ignorant and greedy."
+
+Tom felt sorry and ashamed. He realized he made a big mistake. He said, "I am sorry, Sara. I was wrong and stupid. I did not know how to own a fish. I did not think about your feelings or your fish's feelings. I only thought about myself. I am ignorant and selfish."
+
+Sara and Tom learned a lesson. They learned that owning something is not only about having it, but also about caring for it and respecting it. They learned that being ignorant and selfish can hurt others and themselves. They learned that being a good friend and a good person means being kind and honest. They learned that owning is not as important as loving.
+Lily liked to play dress-up with her big sister. She had a pink vest that she loved. It was soft and shiny and had a flower on it. She put on the vest and a hat and pretended to be a princess.
+
+One day, it was very hot outside. Lily wanted to go to the park with her sister, but her sister said it was too hot to wear the vest. Lily did not want to take off her vest. She said it was her magic vest and it made her feel happy.
+
+Her sister said, "Lily, you have to be smart. The vest is not magic. It is just a vest. If you wear it in the sun, you will be too hot and sweaty. You can wear it when it is cooler, okay?"
+
+Lily did not like what her sister said. She did not want to be smart. She wanted to be a princess. She said, "No, you are wrong. The vest is magic. I believe in it. It makes me cool and pretty. I will wear it to the park and you will see."
+
+Her sister sighed and said, "Fine, Lily. Do what you want. But don't come crying to me when you are hot and thirsty and tired."
+
+Lily and her sister went to the park. Lily ran and jumped and played in her vest. She felt happy and proud. She did not care about the sun or the heat. She believed in her vest.
+
+But soon, Lily started to feel hot and sweaty. Her vest stuck to her skin and made her itch. Her mouth was dry and her head was dizzy. She wanted to drink some water and sit in the shade. She looked for her sister, but she could not find her. She felt scared and sad.
+
+She wished she had listened to her sister. She wished she had taken off her vest. She realized that her vest was not magic. It was just a vest. She cried and cried until her sister came and hugged her.
+
+Her sister said, "Lily, I'm sorry. I should have been nicer to you. I know you love your vest, but it is not good for you to wear it when it is hot. You can wear it when it is cooler, okay?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Okay. I'm sorry, too. I was silly. I know the vest is not magic. I just like it a lot. Can we go home and drink some water and rest?"
+
+Her sister said, "Yes, of course. Come on, let's go. I love you, Lily."
+
+Lily said, "I love you, too." She took off her vest and held her sister's hand. She felt better and learned a lesson. She still liked her vest, but she did not believe in it anymore. She believed in her sister.
+Lily loved her scooter. She liked to ride it fast and make it spin. She wanted to show her friend Ben how good she was. She saw him at the park with his bike.
+
+"Hi, Ben!" Lily said. "Look at my scooter. I can spin it like this!" She rode her scooter and turned it around quickly.
+
+"Wow, Lily, that's cool!" Ben said. "But can you spin it on the ramp? That's harder."
+
+Lily looked at the ramp. It was big and steep. She felt scared. She had never tried to spin on the ramp before. What if she fell and hurt herself?
+
+"I don't know, Ben," Lily said. "The ramp is scary. I don't think I can do it."
+
+"Come on, Lily, you can do it!" Ben said. "You are brave. You can spin on the ramp. I will help you."
+
+Ben took Lily's hand and walked with her to the ramp. He told her to go slowly and keep her balance. He said he would catch her if she fell.
+
+Lily took a deep breath and pushed her scooter. She went up the ramp and spun her scooter in the air. She felt a rush of excitement and joy. She landed safely on the other side of the ramp. She did it!
+
+"Yay, Lily, you did it!" Ben cheered. "You are amazing! You spun on the ramp!"
+
+Lily smiled and hugged Ben. She felt proud and happy. She thanked him for his help. She had a new trick to show off. She was brave. She loved her scooter.
+Anna liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had long hair, a pink dress and a smile. Anna liked to brush Lily's hair and make her talk.
+
+One day, Anna saw a new doll in the store. The doll looked like Lily, but she had a different dress and a different smile. Anna wanted the new doll. She asked her mom to buy it for her, but her mom said no. She said Anna had enough dolls and she should be happy with what she had.
+
+Anna was sad and angry. She wanted the new doll so much. She thought of a plan. She took Lily and hid her under her bed. Then she went back to the store with her mom. She pretended to see the new doll for the first time. She said, "Look, mom, a new doll! She is so pretty! Can I have her, please?"
+
+Her mom was surprised. She did not recognize the doll. She thought Anna had lost Lily. She felt sorry for Anna. She said, "Okay, you can have the new doll. But you have to take good care of her. She is your only doll now."
+
+Anna was happy. She took the new doll and hugged her. She thanked her mom and ran to her room. She put the new doll on her bed and looked at her. She tried to make her talk, but the new doll did not say anything. She tried to brush her hair, but the new doll's hair was fake. It was hard and rough. She tried to kiss her, but the new doll's face was fake. It was cold and plastic. She did not like the new doll's taste.
+
+Anna realized she had made a mistake. She missed Lily. She wanted her back. She looked under her bed, but Lily was not there. She had forgotten to close the door, and her dog had found Lily. He had chewed her up and torn her apart. He had left her in pieces on the floor.
+
+Anna cried and cried. She had lost her favorite doll. She had traded her for a fake doll. She was very sorry. She wished she had listened to her mom. She wished she had been happy with what she had.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and make up stories. One day, they find a big box in the garage. It is full of shiny balls and stars and planets.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Anna says. "It is like a universe!"
+
+"Can we play with it?" Ben asks.
+
+"Yes, let's pretend we are space explorers!" Anna says. She grabs a ball that looks like Earth and holds it in her hand. "This is our home planet. We have to protect it from the bad aliens."
+
+Ben grabs another ball that looks like Mars and says, "I am a bad alien. I want to take your planet and make it mine. Give it to me!"
+
+"No, you can't have it! It is not fair!" Anna says. She tries to pull the ball away from Ben, but he is stronger. They start to tug and fight over the ball.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" Mom says. She comes into the garage and sees the mess. "What are you doing with this box? It belongs to your grandpa. He is a scientist and he studies the universe. These are not toys, they are models. You could break them or lose them."
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Anna and Ben say. They feel bad for taking the box without asking.
+
+"Come on, let's put them back. I will tell you more about the universe later. It is very amazing and beautiful. Maybe one day, you can be scientists too and explore it," Mom says.
+
+She helps them put the balls and stars and planets back in the box. Anna and Ben are curious and excited. They want to learn more about the universe and how it works. They hug Mom and say, "Thank you, Mom. We love you and the universe."
+Anna and Ben were bored. They had no toys to play with. They only had a big sheet. Anna had an idea.
+
+"Let's imagine we are in a castle!" she said to Ben. "The sheet can be our wall and our roof. We can make a door and a window with our hands."
+
+Ben liked the idea. He helped Anna to spread the sheet over two chairs. They crawled under the sheet. It was dark and cozy.
+
+"Hello, princess!" Ben said to Anna. "Welcome to our castle. Do you like it?"
+
+"Yes, prince!" Anna said to Ben. "It is very nice. But we need to be careful. There are dragons outside. They want to burn our castle."
+
+"Don't worry, princess!" Ben said to Anna. "I have a sword. It is made of wood. I can fight the dragons. They are afraid of me."
+
+Anna and Ben pretended to fight the dragons. They made loud noises and waved their arms. They had a lot of fun. They forgot they were under a sheet. They felt like they were in a real castle.
+
+Their mom came to see them. She smiled. She was happy to see them playing.
+
+"What are you doing, my loves?" she asked them.
+
+"We are in a castle, mom!" Anna and Ben said together. "We are a princess and a prince. We are fighting dragons."
+
+"That sounds very exciting!" their mom said. "But it is almost time for dinner. Can you come out of your castle?"
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They crawled out of the sheet. They folded it and put it away. They hugged their mom.
+
+"Thank you for the sheet, mom!" they said. "It was a normal sheet, but we imagined it was a castle. It was the best toy ever!"
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in their room. They had many toys, but their favorite was the big mattress on the floor. They liked to jump on it, roll on it, and pretend it was a boat or a castle.
+
+One day, their mom told them that they had to give away the mattress. She said they were getting new beds and there was no space for the mattress. Lily and Ben were very sad. They did not want to lose their favorite toy. They begged their mom to let them keep it, but she said no.
+
+She said, "You have to value what you have, not what you don't have. The mattress is old and dirty, and someone else might need it more than you. You have many other toys and books to play with. Be grateful and share, not greedy and rude."
+
+Lily and Ben did not like what their mom said. They thought she was rude and mean. They decided to hide the mattress under their blankets and pillows, so she would not find it. They thought they were very clever.
+
+But they were not. The next day, when their mom came to their room, she saw the big lump on the floor. She pulled away the blankets and pillows, and saw the mattress. She was very angry. She said, "You disobeyed me and lied to me. That is very naughty and wrong. You have to learn to respect me and listen to me. Now you have to give away the mattress and all your toys for a week. Maybe then you will value what you have."
+
+Lily and Ben were very sorry. They realized they had made a big mistake. They hugged their mom and said, "We are sorry, mom. We love you and we love the mattress. But we love you more. We will give away the mattress and be good. Please don't be mad at us."
+
+Their mom smiled and said, "I love you too, Lily and Ben. I know you are good kids, but sometimes you make bad choices. I hope you learned your lesson. Now, let's go and find a nice home for the mattress. Maybe you will make a new friend who will value it as much as you did."
+Tom is a cat who likes to sleep in the barn. He has a soft bed of hay and a bowl of milk. He is happy and lazy. One day, he hears a noise in the corner. He opens his eyes and sees a rat. The rat is big and brown and has a long tail. Tom thinks the rat is a tasty snack. He jumps off his bed and runs after the rat.
+
+"Stop, stop!" the rat says. "I am not your food. I am your friend. I am an intelligent rat. I can talk and read and write. I can help you with many things. Please, do not hurt me."
+
+Tom is surprised. He has never met a rat who can talk. He is curious and a little scared. He stops and looks at the rat.
+
+"How can you talk?" he asks. "How can you read and write? Where did you learn these things?"
+
+The rat smiles. He is glad that Tom is not angry. He says, "I learned these things from a book. A book that I found in the barn. A book that tells many stories and secrets. A book that belongs to the farmer. He keeps it in a chest under a lock. But I know how to open the lock. I am an intelligent rat. I can enter the chest and take the book. I can show you the book, if you want."
+
+Tom is tempted. He likes stories and secrets. He wants to see the book. But he also remembers that the farmer is his master. He gives him milk and pets him. He does not like to steal from the farmer. He does not know what to do. He says, "I do not know. The book is not yours. It is the farmer's. He will be angry if he finds out. He will chase you away. He will hurt you. He will hurt me. I do not want that."
+
+The rat says, "Do not worry. The farmer does not know. He does not care. He never reads the book. He only keeps it for show. He does not understand the book. He does not appreciate the book. He does not deserve the book. We do. We are intelligent. We can learn from the book. We can have fun with the book. We can be friends with the book. Come with me. I will show you the book. You will like it. Trust me."
+
+Tom is confused. He does not know who to trust. He does not know who to follow. He does not know what to choose. He looks at the rat. He looks at the door. He looks at his bed. He looks at his bowl. He thinks hard. He makes a decision. He says, "No. I will not go with you. I will not see the book. I will not steal from the farmer. I will not betray my master. I will stay here. I will sleep in my bed. I will drink my milk. I will be a good cat. You are not my friend. You are a bad rat. You are a liar. You are a thief. Go away. Leave me alone."
+
+The rat is angry. He is disappointed. He is insulted. He says, "Fine. Be a fool. Be a slave. Be a boring cat. You do not know what you are missing. You do not know what you are giving up. You do not know what you are losing. I do not need you. I do not want you. I have the book. I have the power. I have the knowledge. I am an intelligent rat. I am better than you. I will go. I will enter the chest. I will take the book. I will read the book. I will enjoy the book. I will laugh at you. Goodbye."
+
+The rat turns and runs to the corner. He finds a hole in the wall. He enters the hole and disappears. Tom watches him go. He feels sad and relieved. He feels curious and proud. He feels lonely and loyal. He goes back to his bed. He curls up and closes his eyes. He dreams of the book. He dreams of the rat. He dreams of the farmer. He dreams of himself. He is a cat. He is happy and lazy. He is Tom.
+Sara and Ben like to play with their toys. They have many toys of different shapes and colors. Sara likes to sort her toys by shape. She puts all the round toys in one box, all the square toys in another box, and so on. Ben likes to sort his toys by color. He puts all the red toys in one bag, all the blue toys in another bag, and so on.
+
+One day, they decide to play together. Sara brings her boxes and Ben brings his bags. They start to sort their toys. But soon they have a problem. Sara sees a red ball and puts it in her round box. Ben sees a blue cube and puts it in his square bag. They both think they are right.
+
+"Hey, that's my ball!" Ben says. "It's red, so it belongs in my red bag."
+
+"No, it's my ball!" Sara says. "It's round, so it belongs in my round box."
+
+They start to argue and pull the ball from each other. They are not happy.
+
+Their mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She sees their toys and their faces. She has an idea.
+
+"Why don't you try a new way to sort your toys?" she says. "How about you sort them by whether they are wet or dry?"
+
+Sara and Ben look at each other. They are curious. They have never sorted their toys by wet or dry before.
+
+"How do we do that?" they ask.
+
+Mom shows them. She takes a bucket of water and a towel. She dips some toys in the water and puts them on the towel. She leaves some toys out of the water and puts them on the floor.
+
+"See, these toys are wet and these toys are dry," she says. "Can you sort them into two piles?"
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They think it sounds fun. They start to sort the wet and dry toys. They don't care about the shape or color anymore. They work together and help each other. They are happy.
+
+They thank their mom for the new game. They learn that there are many ways to sort objects. They also learn that they can share and cooperate. They hug each other and their mom. They have a good day.
+Tom and Ben were brothers. They liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a pistol in their dad's room. It was shiny and black. They did not know what it was.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a pistol!" Tom said. He held it in his hand. "It is like a gun, but smaller."
+
+"Can I see it?" Ben asked. He wanted to touch it too.
+
+"OK, but be careful. It is not a toy. It can make a loud noise and hurt someone." Tom said. He tried to teach Ben how to hold the pistol. He pointed it at the wall.
+
+"Like this?" Ben asked. He copied Tom. He squeezed the trigger.
+
+BANG!
+
+The pistol made a wide hole in the wall. Tom and Ben were scared. They dropped the pistol and ran away. They heard their dad coming.
+
+"What was that noise?" their dad shouted. He saw the pistol and the hole. He was angry and worried. He looked for his sons.
+
+"Tom! Ben! Where are you?" he called. He hoped they were not hurt. He wanted to talk to them and explain why they should never touch the pistol. He wished he had locked it away.
+Tommy did not like to wake up in the morning. He liked to sleep in his bed with his teddy bear and his blanket. But every morning, his mom came to his room and said, "Time to get up, Tommy. You have to go to school today." Tommy did not want to go to school. He wanted to stay at home and play with his toys.
+
+One morning, Tommy had a plan. He hid under his blanket and pretended to be asleep. When his mom came to his room, she said, "Tommy, are you awake?" Tommy did not answer. He hoped his mom would go away. But his mom did not go away. She pulled his blanket and said, "Tommy, you have to get up now. You are late for school." Tommy was angry. He did not like his mom to pull his blanket. He slapped his mom's hand and said, "No! Go away!"
+
+His mom was shocked. She did not like Tommy to slap her hand. She said, "Tommy, that is not nice. You do not slap your mom. You say sorry." Tommy did not say sorry. He said, "No! I do not want to go to school. I want to sleep." His mom was sad. She said, "Tommy, you have to go to school. You have to learn new things and make new friends. School is fun. You will like it." Tommy did not believe his mom. He said, "No! School is not fun. School is difficult. I do not like it."
+
+His mom did not know what to do. She tried to hug Tommy and calm him down. She said, "Tommy, I love you. I want you to be happy. But you have to follow the rules. You have to go to school. And you have to be nice to your mom. You have to say sorry for slapping my hand." Tommy did not hug his mom back. He pushed her away and said, "No! I do not love you. I do not follow the rules. I do not say sorry."
+
+His mom was hurt. She had tears in her eyes. She said, "Tommy, you are making me very sad. You are being very rude. You have to change your attitude. Or you will have a time out." Tommy did not care. He said, "No! I do not change my attitude. I do not have a time out. I do what I want."
+
+His mom had enough. She said, "Tommy, you leave me no choice. You are going to have a time out. You are going to sit in the corner and think about what you did. And you are not going to play with your toys or watch TV until you say sorry." She picked up Tommy and carried him to the corner. Tommy kicked and screamed. He said, "No! No! No! I hate you! I hate school! I hate morning!"
+
+His mom put him down and said, "Tommy, you stay here until you are ready to apologize. I hope you will learn your lesson." She walked away and closed the door. Tommy was alone in the corner. He was still angry. But he was also scared. And he was also sorry. He did not really hate his mom. He loved his mom. He did not mean to slap her hand. He was just tired and grumpy. He wished he could take it back. He wished he could say sorry. He wished he could hug his mom. He wished he could go to school. He wished he could have a good morning. He wished he could be a good boy. He wished he could make his mom happy. He wished he could make himself happy. He wished he could start over. He wished he could wake up.
+Ben and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they find a big toy gun in the garage. It is heavy and black. Ben says, "Wow, look at this! Let's play with it!"
+
+Tom says, "No, Ben, we can't. That is not a toy. That is a real gun. It can hurt us. We should tell Mom or Dad."
+
+Ben says, "Don't be silly, Tom. It is a toy. See, it has a name on it. It says 'Nerf'. That means it is fun. Come on, let's shoot at the cans."
+
+Tom says, "No, Ben, please. I don't want to play with it. It is dangerous. Put it down."
+
+Ben says, "Fine, you are a baby. I will play by myself. Watch me shoot at the cans. I am a hero!"
+
+Ben picks up the gun and aims at the cans. He pulls the trigger. But the gun does not make a soft sound. It makes a loud bang. A bullet comes out of the gun and hits Tom in the chest. Tom falls down and does not move. He has a lot of red on his shirt. Ben drops the gun and runs to Tom. He cries and says, "Tom, Tom, wake up! I am sorry! I did not know! Please, Tom, wake up!"
+
+But Tom does not wake up. He is gone. Ben is alone. He is very sad and scared. He wishes he had listened to Tom. He wishes he had not played with the gun. He wishes he could say sorry to Tom. But it is too late. He has made a big mistake. He has lost his friend.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the kitchen. They wanted to make a cake for Mom. They saw a big jar of sugar on the shelf. Tom said, "We need sugar for the cake. I can get it." He climbed on a chair and reached for the jar. He leaned too far and the jar fell down. It broke on the floor and sugar spilled everywhere.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily said. "Look what you did! Mom will be mad at us!" She started to cry. Tom felt bad. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. It was an accident. Don't cry. We can clean it up." He got a broom and a dustpan. He tried to sweep the sugar and the glass. But it was too hard. He cut his finger on a sharp piece of glass. He cried out in pain.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the kitchen. She saw the mess and the blood. She was shocked. She said, "What happened here? Are you okay?" She ran to Tom and wrapped his finger in a cloth. She said, "You are bleeding. You need a band-aid. Come with me." She took Tom to the bathroom. She cleaned his wound and put a band-aid on it. She said, "You were very brave. It will heal soon. Don't worry."
+
+She went back to the kitchen and saw Lily. Lily was still crying. She said, "I'm sorry, Mom. We wanted to make a cake for you. But Tom dropped the sugar and it broke. We tried to clean it up. But we couldn't. We made a big mess. Please don't be mad at us." She hugged Mom.
+
+Mom hugged her back. She said, "I'm not mad at you. I'm glad you are not hurt. It was a nice idea to make a cake for me. But you should not play with sugar and glass. They are dangerous. Next time, ask me for help. I will show you how to bake a cake safely. Okay?" She kissed Lily.
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Okay, Mom. Thank you. We love you." Tom came back from the bathroom. He said, "I'm sorry, Mom. I love you too." Mom smiled. She said, "I love you both. Now let's clean up this mess together. And then we can have some cookies and milk. How does that sound?" Tom and Lily cheered. They said, "Yay! Cookies and milk!" They helped Mom clean up the kitchen. They learned a lesson. They had a happy day.
+Sara and Ben love to play in the park. They like to slide, swing, and run. One day, they see a big hole in the ground. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Let's go and look," Ben says. He is very excite. He wants to find a treasure or a dinosaur.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Sara says. She is a little scared. She does not like dark places.
+
+They hold hands and walk to the hole. They see a ladder. They climb down the ladder. They are now underground.
+
+They see a lot of pipes and wires. They hear a loud noise. It sounds like water. They follow the noise. They see a big fountain. It is very pretty. It has many colors.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing," Ben says. He runs to the fountain. He wants to touch the water.
+
+"Ben, wait!" Sara says. She sees a sign. It says "Do not touch. Danger."
+
+But Ben does not see the sign. He puts his hand in the water. He feels a shock. He screams. He falls down.
+
+Sara runs to him. She is very worried. She helps him get up.
+
+"Are you OK?" she asks.
+
+Ben nods. He is OK, but he is very embarrassed. He feels silly. He should have listened to Sara.
+
+They hear a voice. It is a man. He works in the underground. He is angry.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing here? This is not a place for kids. Get out of here, now!"
+
+Sara and Ben are very sorry. They say sorry to the man. They climb up the ladder. They run to the park. They do not want to go underground again. They learned their lesson.
+Lily and Sam liked to play with their blocks. They wanted to build a big house for their toys. They put blocks on top of blocks, and made windows and doors. They were happy with their house.
+
+But then, they heard a loud noise outside. They looked out the window and saw a big red truck. It was a fireman truck. The fireman truck had a siren and a hose. The fireman truck stopped near their house.
+
+"What is the fireman truck doing?" Lily asked.
+
+"Maybe there is a fire somewhere," Sam said.
+
+They ran outside to see. They saw a fireman get out of the truck. He was wearing a helmet and a coat. He looked tired and sweaty.
+
+"Hello, fireman," Lily said. "Why are you here?"
+
+"Hello, kids," the fireman said. "We are here because there is a fire in the woods. We are trying to put it out. But it is very hard and hot."
+
+"Can we help you?" Sam asked.
+
+The fireman smiled. "You are very kind, but you can't help us. It is too dangerous for you. You should stay away from the fire. But you can do something else. You can give us some water and snacks. We are very thirsty and hungry."
+
+"OK, we can do that," Lily said. "We have some water and snacks in our house. We will bring them to you."
+
+"Thank you, kids," the fireman said. "You are very helpful and brave."
+
+Lily and Sam ran back to their house. They got some water bottles and some cookies. They put them in a basket. They carried the basket to the fireman truck. They gave the water and the cookies to the fireman and his friends.
+
+"Thank you, kids," the fireman and his friends said. "You are very generous and sweet."
+
+Lily and Sam felt happy. They had helped the fireman and his friends. They had done a good thing. They waved to the fireman and his friends. They went back to their house. They played with their blocks again. They were proud of their house and themselves.
+Anna and Ben were going to the airport with Mom and Dad. They were very happy because they were going to fly in a big plane to see Grandma and Grandpa. Anna and Ben liked planes. They thought they were amazing.
+
+But when they got to the airport, they saw a lot of people and cars. They had to wait in a long line to check their bags. Anna and Ben were bored. They wanted to see the planes. They asked Mom and Dad if they could go to the window.
+
+"OK, but stay close to us and don't touch anything," Mom said.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and ran to the window. They saw many planes taking off and landing. They pointed and shouted. They saw a red plane, a blue plane, a yellow plane. They saw a plane with a picture of a bird on it. They saw a plane with a star on it.
+
+"Look, Ben, that plane has a star!" Anna said.
+
+"Wow, that's amazing!" Ben said.
+
+They wanted to see the plane better. They saw a door next to the window. They thought it was a way to get closer to the plane. They did not see the sign that said "Do not enter". They opened the door and went inside.
+
+But the door was not a way to get closer to the plane. It was a way to get to the runway, where the planes were moving. It was very noisy and dangerous. And the door had a lock on it. It locked behind them. They could not get out.
+
+"Anna, Ben, where are you?" Mom and Dad called from the window. They saw the door was open. They saw their children on the runway. They were scared.
+
+"Help, help!" Anna and Ben cried. They saw a big plane coming towards them. They did not know what to do.
+
+But then they heard a loud voice. It was a man with a radio. He was wearing a uniform. He was a security guard. He saw Anna and Ben on the runway. He ran to them and grabbed them. He took them back to the door. He unlocked it and brought them to Mom and Dad.
+
+"Are you OK?" Mom and Dad asked. They hugged Anna and Ben. They were relieved.
+
+"Sorry, sorry," Anna and Ben said. They were sorry. They did not mean to cause trouble. They just wanted to see the amazing plane.
+
+The security guard was not angry. He was glad they were safe. He told them to be careful and not to go to places they were not supposed to. He showed them some pictures of planes in a book. He told them some facts about planes. He made them smile.
+
+"Thank you, thank you," Mom and Dad said. They thanked the security guard. They were grateful.
+
+They checked their bags and went to their gate. They boarded their plane. They buckled their seat belts. They looked out the window. They saw the amazing plane with the star on it. They waved to it. They were ready to fly.
+Lily loved her new bike. It was pink and shiny and had a bell and a basket. She rode it every day in the park with her friends. She was very happy.
+
+One day, a big dog ran after her bike and bit the wheel. Lily was scared and fell off. The wheel was broken and the bike could not move. Lily cried and cried. She loved her bike and did not want to lose it.
+
+Her dad came and picked her up. He saw the broken bike and said, "Don't worry, Lily. I can repair it. I have tools and a spare wheel at home. It will be good as new tomorrow."
+
+Lily felt a little better. She hugged her dad and thanked him. He took her and the bike home. He put the bike in the garage and said he would fix it in the morning.
+
+That night, Lily had a nightmare. She dreamed that the big dog came back and bit her bike again. He bit the new wheel and the bell and the basket. He bit everything until there was nothing left but a pile of metal. Lily woke up screaming.
+
+Her dad heard her and ran to her room. He hugged her and said, "It's okay, Lily. It was just a bad dream. Your bike is safe in the garage. I repaired it and it looks beautiful. Do you want to see it?"
+
+Lily nodded. She wanted to see her bike and make sure it was okay. Her dad took her to the garage and turned on the light. There was her bike, pink and shiny and with a new wheel and a bell and a basket. Lily smiled and ran to it. She hugged it and said, "I love you, bike. You are the best."
+
+Her dad smiled and said, "I love you, Lily. You are the best. Now, let's go back to bed. Tomorrow, we can ride your bike in the park again."
+
+Lily agreed. She felt happy and safe. She said good night to her bike and her dad. They went back to her room and she fell asleep. She did not have any more nightmares. She dreamed of riding her bike in the sun with her friends.
+Lily and Max were having lunch with Mom and Dad. They had soup and bread and cheese. Lily liked soup, but Max did not. He made a face and pushed his bowl away.
+
+"Max, you have to eat your soup. It's good for you," Mom said.
+
+"No, I don't want soup. I want cake," Max said.
+
+"Sorry, Max, but you can't have cake until you finish your soup," Dad said.
+
+Max was angry. He did not like soup, and he did not like Mom and Dad telling him what to do. He grabbed a napkin and snapped it in the air. He snapped it so hard that it tore in half.
+
+"Max, stop that! You are making a mess and being rude," Mom said.
+
+Max did not stop. He snapped another napkin and threw it on the floor. He snapped a third napkin and hit Lily with it.
+
+"Ow! Max, that hurts! Stop it!" Lily said.
+
+Lily was angry too. She did not like Max snapping napkins at her. She grabbed a napkin and snapped it back at Max. Max snapped another napkin at Lily. Lily snapped another napkin at Max. Soon, they were having a napkin fight and making a lot of noise.
+
+"Enough! Both of you, go to your rooms right now!" Dad said.
+
+Mom and Dad were angry. They did not like Max and Lily snapping napkins and fighting. They took away their napkins and sent them to their rooms. Max and Lily were sad. They did not have cake, and they did not have fun. They wished they had eaten their soup and been nice.
+Sara and Ben love to play with their toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is the big plane. The plane is red and blue and has wings and wheels. They like to make the plane fly in the air and land on the ground.
+
+One day, they take the plane outside to play in the sun. They find a nice spot on the grass and start to fly the plane. They have a lot of fun and laugh a lot. But then, something bad happens. The sun is very hot and the plane is made of plastic. The plastic starts to melt in the sun. The plane gets soft and bendy and loses its shape.
+
+Sara and Ben are very sad and angry. They cry and shout. They want their plane back. They do not want a melted plane. They think the sun is mean and rude. They do not like the sun anymore.
+
+They run inside and tell their mom what happened. Their mom is sorry and hugs them. She says she has a surprise for them. She takes them to the living room and shows them a new toy. It is a famous plane. It is the plane that the first man flew across the ocean. It is made of metal and paper and has a propeller. It is not red and blue, but silver and yellow. It is very cool and shiny.
+
+Sara and Ben are very happy and excited. They thank their mom and hug her. They want to play with the new plane right away. They forget about the melted plane. They think the new plane is better and more fun. They like the new plane a lot.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play outside. But today it is winter. It is very cold and white. They see snow on the ground and in the air.
+
+"Can we go out and play?" Sara asks Mom.
+
+Mom smiles and says, "Yes, but you have to wear warm clothes. And don't stay out too long."
+
+Sara and Ben put on their hats, coats, boots, and gloves. They run outside and see their friends. They make snowballs and throw them at each other. They laugh and have fun.
+
+But soon they feel cold and wet. Their noses are red and their fingers are numb. They hear Mom calling them.
+
+"Time to come in, Sara and Ben!" Mom says.
+
+Sara and Ben say goodbye to their friends. They run back to the house. They take off their wet clothes and put on dry ones. Mom gives them hot chocolate and cookies. They sit by the fire and warm up.
+
+They look out the window and see the snow still falling. They wonder when it will stop.
+
+"Will it be winter forever?" Sara asks Mom.
+
+Mom hugs them and says, "No, my loves. Winter will not remain. Spring will come soon. And then you can play outside again. With flowers and birds and sunshine."
+
+Sara and Ben smile and sip their hot chocolate. They like winter, but they also like spring. They are happy to have Mom and each other. They are a small family, but a big love.
+Timmy liked to take pictures with his camera. He liked to make silly faces and show them to his mom and dad. One day, he saw a big bird in the garden. He wanted to take a picture of the bird. He ran to get his camera.
+
+But his sister Lily was playing with his camera. She was making silly faces too. She did not see Timmy coming. Timmy was angry. He wanted his camera back. He shouted at Lily. "Give me my camera! That is mine!"
+
+Lily was scared. She did not want to give Timmy his camera. She liked it too. She said, "No, this is mine now! Go away!"
+
+Timmy and Lily started to fight. They pulled and pushed and yelled. The camera fell to the ground. It broke into pieces. The bird flew away.
+
+Mom and dad heard the noise. They came to see what was wrong. They saw the broken camera and the crying children. They were sad and angry. They said, "Look what you have done! You have ruined your camera and scared the bird. You have been very naughty and selfish. You should have shared and been nice to each other. Now you have no camera and no bird. You have nothing."
+
+Timmy and Lily felt sorry. They wished they had not fought. They wished they had said please and thank you. They wished they had listened to mom and dad. They learned a lesson. They hugged and said sorry. But it was too late. The camera was gone. The bird was gone. The end.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a big pile of leaves and sticks. They wanted to make a fire.
+
+"Fire is fun and warm," said Ben. "We can roast marshmallows."
+
+"But fire is also dangerous," said Anna. "It can burn and hurt. We need to be careful."
+
+They found a box of matches and a metal can. They put some leaves and sticks in the can. Ben struck a match and lit the fire.
+
+"Wow, look at the fire!" said Ben. "It is bright and orange."
+
+Anna came closer to the fire. She felt the heat on her face. She reached out her hand to touch the fire.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" she cried. "The fire burned me!"
+
+Ben heard her voice and ran to her. He saw her hand was red and blistered. He felt sorry for her.
+
+"Anna, I'm sorry. Are you okay?" he asked.
+
+"No, it hurts a lot," she said. "We need to tell Mommy."
+
+They ran to the house and found Mommy. She saw Anna's hand and hugged her.
+
+"Anna, what happened?" she asked.
+
+"We played with fire and it burned me," Anna said.
+
+Mommy took Anna to the sink and ran cold water over her hand. She wrapped it with a bandage and gave her some ice cream.
+
+"Fire is not a toy, Anna and Ben," she said. "It is useful for cooking and warming, but it is also very dangerous. You should never play with fire or matches. Do you understand?"
+
+"Yes, Mommy, we understand," they said. "We are sorry. We won't do it again."
+
+Mommy kissed them and said she loved them. She told them to be more careful next time. Anna and Ben learned their lesson. They decided to play with something else.
+Ben and Mia like to play with their toy cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make noises and pretend to drive them on the floor. One day, they find a new car in the toy box. It is gray and shiny, and it has a button on the side.
+
+"What is this?" Ben asks, picking up the car.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a special car," Mia says, looking at it.
+
+"Let me see. Maybe the button does something," Ben says, pushing the button.
+
+The car starts to shake and make a loud sound. It shakes so hard that it slips out of Ben's hand and falls on the floor. It rolls fast across the room, bumping into the walls and the furniture.
+
+"Wow, look at it go!" Mia says, clapping her hands.
+
+"Be careful, it might break something!" Ben says, running after the car.
+
+The car keeps rolling and shaking, and it does not stop. It hits the lamp and knocks it over. It hits the vase and breaks it. It hits the TV and cracks the screen. It hits the window and smashes it. Glass flies everywhere.
+
+"Stop, stop, stop!" Ben and Mia scream, but the car does not listen.
+
+Their mom hears the noise and comes into the room. She sees the mess and the broken things. She sees the car still rolling and shaking. She is very angry.
+
+"What have you done?" she yells. "This is not a toy, this is a remote control bomb! You could have hurt yourselves or blown up the house!"
+
+She grabs the car and throws it outside. It explodes in the yard, making a big fire and smoke.
+
+Ben and Mia are scared and sorry. They cry and hug each other. They wish they had never found the gray car. They wish they had played with their other cars. They wish they had listened to their mom.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the barn. They liked to climb on the hay and pretend they were pirates. Tom found a big barrel and rolled it to Lily.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a barrel. We can use it as a ship," Tom said.
+
+Lily smiled and climbed on the barrel. She held a stick as a sword and said, "Aye, aye, captain. Where are we sailing to?"
+
+Tom looked around and saw a window. He pointed to it and said, "There, Lily. We are sailing to the sun. It is warm and bright and makes us happy."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, Tom. The sun is warm and bright and makes us happy. Let's sail to the sun and have fun."
+
+They rocked the barrel back and forth and made sailing noises. They felt the sun on their faces and laughed. They were happy pirates.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to run and play in the park. One day, they see a big sign. It says: "Race for kids. Win a medal." Tom and Mia are eager. They want to join the race and win a medal.
+
+They go to the start line. There are many other kids. A man with a whistle says: "Ready, set, go!" Tom and Mia run as fast as they can. They pass some kids. They are almost at the finish line. But then, Tom trips and falls. He hurts his knee. He cries.
+
+Mia stops and runs back to Tom. She helps him up. She says: "Are you okay, Tom?" Tom nods. He says: "Yes, but I lost the race. I lost the medal." Mia hugs him. She says: "It's okay, Tom. You are brave and kind. You are my friend. That is better than a medal."
+
+They walk to the finish line. The man with the whistle gives them each a medal. He says: "You are both winners. You showed sportsmanship and friendship. Well done!" Tom and Mia smile. They thank the man. They are happy. They wear their medals proudly. They go home and tell their moms and dads about their race.
+Lily and Tom were twins who lived in a big house in the country. They liked to play outside in the garden, where there were many flowers and trees. One day, they saw a rabbit hopping near the fence. They wanted to pet it, so they ran after it.
+
+"Come here, bunny!" Lily called. "We want to be your friends!"
+
+But the rabbit was scared of the twins. It ran away from them, and jumped over the fence into the woods. Lily and Tom followed it, but they soon got lost. They did not know where they were, and they started to feel cold and hungry.
+
+"Where is the bunny?" Tom asked. "Where is our house?"
+
+"I don't know," Lily said. "Maybe we should ask someone for help."
+
+They looked around, and saw a small hut with smoke coming out of the chimney. They walked towards it, hoping to find someone nice inside. They knocked on the door, and waited.
+
+The door opened, and a grumpy old man came out. He had a long beard and a dirty hat. He looked at the twins with a frown.
+
+"Who are you?" he asked. "What do you want?"
+
+"Hello, sir," Lily said. "We are Lily and Tom. We live in the big house in the country. We were chasing a rabbit, and we got lost. Can you please help us find our way back?"
+
+The old man snorted. He did not like children, or rabbits, or visitors. He wanted to be left alone.
+
+"Go away!" he said. "I don't have time for you. Go find your own way back!"
+
+He slammed the door in their faces, and locked it. Lily and Tom felt sad and scared. They did not know what to do.
+
+But then, they heard a familiar sound. It was the rabbit, springing out of the bushes. It looked at them with its big eyes, and twitched its nose. It seemed to say, "Follow me!"
+
+Lily and Tom smiled. They decided to trust the rabbit, and followed it. The rabbit led them through the woods, and back to the fence. They climbed over it, and saw their house in the distance. They ran towards it, happy and relieved.
+
+They thanked the rabbit, and gave it a carrot. The rabbit nodded, and hopped away. Lily and Tom hugged each other, and went inside. They told their parents what had happened, and how the rabbit had helped them. Their parents were glad that they were safe, and scolded them for going too far. They also told them to be careful of the grumpy old man, who did not like anyone.
+
+Lily and Tom learned their lesson. They never chased the rabbit again, but they often waved at it from the garden. They also learned to be kind and polite to everyone, even if they were grumpy. They hoped that one day, the old man would be their friend too.
+Mia loved her motorcycle. It was red and shiny and made a loud noise. She liked to ride it around the park and feel the wind in her hair. She felt independent and free.
+
+But her mom did not like her motorcycle. She said it was too dangerous and noisy. She said Mia should bring it back to the store and get a bike instead. She said a bike was safer and quieter and better for the environment.
+
+Mia did not want to bring her motorcycle back. She did not want a bike. She wanted to keep her motorcycle and ride it whenever she wanted. She did not listen to her mom. She hid her motorcycle in the garage and waited for her mom to go to work.
+
+One day, Mia decided to sneak out with her motorcycle and go to the park. She put on her helmet and gloves and started the engine. She felt excited and happy. She did not see the big truck coming from the other side of the street. She did not hear the horn or the brakes. She only felt a big crash and a lot of pain.
+
+Mia woke up in the hospital. She had a broken arm and a broken leg and a lot of bruises. She saw her mom crying by her bed. She felt sorry and scared. She realized her mom was right. Her motorcycle was too dangerous and noisy. She wished she had listened to her mom. She wished she had brought her motorcycle back.
+
+Moral: Listen to your mom. She knows what is best for you.
+Ben and Mia like to play in the bath. They have many toys that can float and splash. Sometimes they pretend they are pirates or mermaids. But today they have a new game. They want to soak each other with water.
+
+"Ready, set, go!" Ben says and fills a cup with water. He throws it at Mia, who squeals and laughs. She grabs a sponge and squeezes it over Ben's head. Water drips from his hair and nose. He makes a funny face and Mia giggles.
+
+They keep soaking each other until the water is cold and the floor is wet. They have so much fun that they forget to wash their hair and body. Mom comes to check on them and sees the mess. She is not happy.
+
+"Ben, Mia, what are you doing?" she asks. "You are supposed to take a regular bath, not a water fight. Look at the floor, it is all wet. And your hair and body, they are still dirty. You need to wash them with soap and shampoo."
+
+Ben and Mia feel a little guilty. They know Mom is right. They have an urge to say sorry and hug her. But they also have an urge to soak her too. They look at each other and smile. They have a plan.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," they say together. "We were just having fun. Can you help us wash our hair and body?" They sound very sweet and innocent. Mom smiles and nods. She comes closer to the bath. Ben and Mia grab their cups and sponges. They are ready to soak her. They think it will be funny. But Mom is smarter than they think. She sees their plan and ducks. She grabs a towel and wraps it around her. She laughs and says, "Nice try, you two. But you can't soak me. Now let's wash up and get out of the bath. It's time for bed." Ben and Mia laugh too. They know Mom is not mad. They love her. They wash up and get out of the bath. They dry themselves and put on their pajamas. They hug Mom and say good night. They go to bed and dream of their next bath adventure.
+It was a cold night and Lily wanted to go outside and play. She put on her warm coat and her red scarf. She saw some snowflakes falling from the sky. They looked like little stars.
+
+She ran to the backyard and saw a big snowman. He had a hat, a carrot nose and two buttons for eyes. Lily smiled and said hello to the snowman.
+
+"Hello, little girl," the snowman said. "Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+Lily was surprised. She did not know that snowmen could talk. She nodded and said yes.
+
+"Then come closer and give me a hug," the snowman said.
+
+Lily walked towards the snowman. She thought he was nice and friendly. But she did not see the stick in his hand. He was not a good snowman. He was a dangerous snowman. He wanted to hurt Lily.
+
+As Lily came near, the snowman raised his stick and tried to hit her. But Lily was quick and dodged the stick. She ran away from the snowman and screamed for help.
+
+Her mom heard her scream and came outside. She saw the snowman and the stick. She was angry and scared. She grabbed a shovel and smashed the snowman. He fell apart and stopped talking.
+
+Lily ran to her mom and hugged her. She was safe and happy. Her mom hugged her back and said, "You are brave, Lily. But you should never talk to strangers, even if they look like snowmen. They can be dangerous."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I won't do it again. Can we go inside and have some hot chocolate?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Of course, sweetie. Let's go inside and warm up. You are my little star. You glow in the dark."
+
+They went inside and left the snowman behind. He was cold and lonely. He wished he had a real friend. But he was too mean and nasty. He did not deserve a friend. He did not glow. He was just snow.
+Tim and Kim are twins. They like to study new things. They have many books and toys in their room. One day, they find a big book about animals. They open the book and see many pictures of different animals.
+
+"Look, Kim, this is a rat!" Tim says, pointing to a picture of a gray furry animal with a long tail. "It has small eyes and sharp teeth. It likes to eat cheese and bread."
+
+"Wow, Tim, the rat is very small, but it looks fierce!" Kim says, looking at the picture. "It can run fast and hide in holes. It does not like cats and dogs."
+
+"Let's study more about the rat, Kim!" Tim says, turning the page. "Maybe we can learn some fun facts about it."
+
+They study more about the rat. They learn that the rat can swim and climb. They learn that the rat can make sounds and smell things. They learn that the rat can live in many places, like farms and cities.
+
+They are so busy studying that they do not hear their mom calling them for lunch. They do not see their cat, Max, sneaking into their room. They do not notice that Max sees the picture of the rat and thinks it is a real rat. Max jumps on the book and tries to catch the rat. He scratches the book and tears the page.
+
+"Max, no!" Tim and Kim shout, seeing their cat. "That is not a real rat, that is a picture of a rat! You are ruining our book!"
+
+They grab Max and take him away from the book. They look at the book and see the damage. They are sad and angry. They love their book and they want to study more.
+
+"Bad cat, bad cat!" they scold Max. "You should not do that! You should be nice to our things!"
+
+Max looks at them and meows. He does not understand why they are mad. He thinks he was doing a good thing. He thinks he was protecting them from the fierce rat. He thinks he deserves a treat. He does not know that the rat is not real. He does not know that Tim and Kim like to study. He does not know that they are twins. He only knows that he is a cat.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. They have a little dog named Spot. Spot likes to run and jump.
+
+One day, Lila and Ben want to go for a jog. They put on their shoes and hats. They take Spot with them. They say, "Come on, Spot! Let's go for a jog!"
+
+They jog along the path. They see birds and flowers. They say hello to other people. Spot barks and wags his tail. He is happy.
+
+But then, Spot sees a cat. He runs after the cat. He forgets about Lila and Ben. He does not listen to them. They call, "Spot, come back! Spot, stop!"
+
+Spot chases the cat across the street. He does not look for cars. He is in danger. Lila and Ben are scared. They run after Spot. They hope he is okay.
+
+A man in a car sees Spot and the cat. He stops his car. He gets out. He picks up Spot and the cat. He says, "Are you okay, little dog? Are you okay, little cat?"
+
+Lila and Ben catch up. They are relieved. They say, "Thank you, mister! Thank you for saving Spot and the cat!"
+
+The man says, "You're welcome, kids. But you should be careful. You should not let your dog run away. You should keep him on a leash. It is safer for him and for you."
+
+Lila and Ben nod. They say, "We're sorry, mister. We will be more careful next time. We will keep Spot on a leash. We love him very much."
+
+The man smiles. He says, "That's good. I'm glad you love your dog. He is a good dog. He just needs some training. And so does the cat. He is mine. His name is Fluffy."
+
+Lila and Ben laugh. They say, "Fluffy is a funny name for a cat. He is cute. Can we pet him?"
+
+The man says, "Sure, you can pet him. He is friendly. He likes to play with Spot. They are friends now."
+
+Lila and Ben pet Fluffy. They hug Spot. They say, "We are happy. We have a new friend. And we have a good jog."
+
+The end.
+Ben and Lily wanted to make a pie for their mom. They found a book with a picture of a pie and some words. They tried to read the words, but they were too hard. They only knew some of them, like "flour" and "sugar" and "apple".
+
+They got a big bowl and put some flour in it. They used a cup to measure the flour, like the book said. Then they added some sugar and some water and mixed it with a spoon. They made a soft dough and rolled it flat with a rolling pin. They put some of the dough in a round pan and cut the rest into strips.
+
+They got some apples from the fridge and washed them. They cut them into small pieces with a knife. They were careful not to cut their fingers. They put the apple pieces on top of the dough in the pan. They sprinkled some more sugar and some cinnamon on them. They smelled good. They covered the apples with the dough strips and made a pattern.
+
+They put the pie in the oven and turned it on. They waited for a long time. They played with their toys and read some other books. They heard a beep from the oven. The pie was ready. They put on oven mitts and took the pie out. It was hot and golden and smelled even better.
+
+They wanted to taste the pie, but they knew they had to wait for it to cool down. They put it on the table and went to find their mom. They told her they made a pie for her. She was surprised and happy. She hugged them and thanked them. She said they were very sweet and clever.
+
+They went back to the table and cut a slice of pie for each of them. They took a bite and made a face. The pie was bitter. They did not like it. They looked at the book again. They saw a word they did not know: "lemon". They had used lemons instead of apples. They had made a lemon pie by mistake.
+
+They told their mom what happened. She laughed and said it was okay. She said they could try again another day. She said she was proud of them for trying to make a pie. She said she loved them and their pie, even if it was bitter. She gave them some ice cream to make them feel better. They smiled and ate their ice cream. They decided they liked ice cream better than pie.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They liked to swing, slide and run. But they also liked to explore. One day, they saw a big hill behind the trees. They wanted to see what was on the other side.
+
+"Let's go up the hill," said Lily.
+
+"OK, but be careful," said Ben.
+
+They climbed the hill, holding hands. They saw many flowers and birds. They smelled the fresh air. They felt the warm sun. They were happy.
+
+They reached the top of the hill. They saw a big pond. It was blue and shiny. It had many fish and frogs. They heard them splash and croak.
+
+"Wow, look at the pond," said Ben.
+
+"It's so pretty," said Lily.
+
+They wanted to get closer. They saw a big log. It was lying across the pond. It looked like a bridge.
+
+"Let's cross the log," said Lily.
+
+"I don't know," said Ben. "It looks fragile. It might break."
+
+"Don't be scared," said Lily. "I trust you. You trust me. We can do it together."
+
+She stepped on the log. It creaked a little. She smiled at Ben.
+
+"Come on," she said.
+
+Ben hesitated. He was afraid. But he saw Lily's smile. He trusted her. He stepped on the log. It creaked more. He held Lily's hand.
+
+They walked slowly on the log. They looked at the pond. They saw a big turtle. It was sunning on a rock. It waved at them.
+
+"Hello, turtle," said Lily.
+
+"Hello, kids," said the turtle.
+
+They reached the other side of the pond. They were proud. They hugged each other.
+
+"We did it," said Ben.
+
+"We did it," said Lily.
+
+They played on the other side of the pond. They saw more flowers and birds. They smelled more fresh air. They felt more warm sun. They were happier.
+
+They learned that they could do anything if they trusted each other. They learned that spring was a time to explore and enjoy. They learned that fragile things could be strong with love and care. They were best friends.
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play in the pool. They had a big pool in their backyard, with toys and floats and a slide. One day, their mom said they could go in the pool, but only if they wore their swim caps and sunscreen. Lily and Max agreed, and ran to get ready.
+
+Lily put on her pink swim cap and rubbed sunscreen on her arms and legs. She looked at Max and saw that he had his blue swim cap on, but no sunscreen. "Max, you need sunscreen!" she said. "The sun is very hot and can hurt your skin."
+
+Max shook his head. "No, I don't. I don't like sunscreen. It's sticky and smells bad. I'm fine without it." He said.
+
+Lily tried to make him change his mind. "Please, Max. Mom said we have to. And look, I have some sunscreen that smells like bananas. You like bananas, right?" She said, holding out the bottle.
+
+Max looked at the bottle, then at the pool. He wanted to go in the water and have fun. He thought for a moment, then said, "OK, fine. But only a little bit. And you have to go first." He said.
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Deal." She squirted some sunscreen on her hand and rubbed it on Max's face. Max made a face and said, "Ew, it's cold and slimy." Lily laughed and said, "It's not that bad. Come on, let's go in the pool."
+
+They ran to the pool and jumped in. They splashed and played with their toys and floats and slide. They had a lot of fun. But after a while, Max started to feel hot and itchy. His skin turned red and burned. He felt very bad. He cried and said, "Lily, help me. I hurt. I want mom."
+
+Lily heard him and swam to him. She saw that he was sunburned and felt sorry for him. She said, "Oh, Max. I'm sorry. You should have put more sunscreen on. Come on, let's get out of the pool and find mom. She can help you."
+
+She helped him out of the pool and wrapped him in a towel. She held his hand and said, "Don't worry, Max. It will get better. Next time, listen to me and mom, OK? We only want to help you."
+
+Max nodded and said, "OK, Lily. I'm sorry. You were right. Thank you for helping me." He said.
+
+They walked to the house and found their mom. She saw that Max was sunburned and felt bad for him. She said, "Oh, Max. What happened? You didn't put enough sunscreen on, did you?"
+
+Max shook his head and said, "No, mom. I didn't. I was silly. Lily tried to help me, but I didn't listen. I'm sorry, mom. I hurt. Can you help me?"
+
+Mom hugged him and said, "Of course, Max. I can help you. Come on, let's go inside and put some cream on your skin. It will make you feel better. And Lily, thank you for being a good sister and looking after Max. You did a good job."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "You're welcome, mom. I love Max. I just want him to be happy and safe."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I love you both. You're my sweet twins. Come on, let's go inside and take care of Max. And maybe later, we can have some ice cream. How does that sound?"
+
+Lily and Max said, "Yay, ice cream!" and followed mom inside. They learned their lesson and never forgot to put sunscreen on again.
+Tom is a boy who likes to examine things. He has a lab in his room, where he has a magnifying glass, a microscope, and some jars. He likes to collect bugs, leaves, rocks, and other things he finds outside and look at them in his lab.
+
+One day, he finds a big spider in his backyard. He thinks it is very interesting, so he puts it in a jar and takes it to his lab. He wants to see its eyes, legs, and fangs. He puts the jar on his table and opens the lid.
+
+But the spider is not happy. It is scared and angry. It jumps out of the jar and runs towards Tom. Tom is scared too. He screams and runs away from the spider.
+
+"Mom! Mom! Help!" he cries.
+
+His mom hears him and comes to his room. She sees the spider on the floor and the jar on the table. She picks up the spider with a paper and puts it back in the jar. She closes the lid tightly.
+
+"Tom, what are you doing?" she asks. "This spider is bad. It can bite you and make you sick. You should not examine bad spiders in your lab. You should only examine good things that are safe and nice."
+
+Tom feels sorry. He did not know the spider was bad. He thought it was cool. He hugs his mom and says, "I'm sorry, Mom. I won't examine bad spiders anymore. I will only examine good things. Can I keep the spider in the jar and look at it from far away?"
+
+His mom smiles and says, "Yes, you can keep the spider in the jar and look at it from far away. But you have to be careful and never open the lid again. And you have to let the spider go outside when you are done. Spiders belong in nature, not in labs."
+
+Tom nods and says, "OK, Mom. Thank you for helping me. I love you."
+
+He puts the jar on his shelf and looks at the spider from far away. He still thinks it is interesting, but he also knows it is bad. He learns a lesson from his mom. He decides to examine something else in his lab. He finds a feather and a shell and puts them under his microscope. He is happy and curious. He likes to examine things.
+Lily liked to play dress-up with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had a long pink dress and a shiny crown. Lily wanted to be like Anna. She wanted to become a queen.
+
+One day, Lily found a big box in the attic. It was full of old clothes and hats and jewels. Lily was very happy. She opened the box and tried on different things. She found a blue dress and a silver crown. She put them on and looked in the mirror. She smiled. She looked like a queen.
+
+She ran downstairs to show her mom. "Mom, look at me! I am a queen!" she said.
+
+Her mom looked at her and smiled. "You are a very pretty queen, Lily. Where did you find those clothes?" she asked.
+
+"I found them in the attic. They are very old and beautiful. Can I keep them, mom?" Lily asked.
+
+Her mom nodded. "Yes, you can keep them, Lily. They belonged to your grandma. She was a queen too, you know. She was the queen of a small country. She gave me these clothes when I was a little girl, like you. She said they were lucky clothes. They brought her love and happiness. And they brought me you, my sweet Lily. You are my lucky girl."
+
+Lily hugged her mom. She felt very lucky too. She had a mom who loved her, and a grandma who was a queen. She decided to keep the clothes and wear them often. She liked to pretend she was a queen, but she knew she was really a lucky girl.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in their house. One day, they find a door in the hall. The door is old and brown. They open the door and see some stairs. The stairs go up and up.
+
+"Let's go up the stairs!" Sara says. She is curious and brave.
+
+"No, no, no!" Ben says. He is scared and careful. "Mommy said the stairs are bad. They are old and broken. We can fall and hurt ourselves."
+
+But Sara does not listen to Ben. She runs up the stairs. Ben follows her. He does not want to be alone. They go up and up. The stairs are dark and dusty. They hear strange noises.
+
+"Maybe there is a monster up there!" Ben says. He wants to go back.
+
+"Don't be silly!" Sara says. She wants to see what is up there.
+
+They reach the top of the stairs. They find a room. The room is full of old things. There are books and toys and clothes and pictures. Sara and Ben look around. They see a big window. They go to the window and look outside. They see the garden and the street and the sky.
+
+"Wow, this is cool!" Sara says. She smiles and claps her hands.
+
+"Yes, it is!" Ben says. He forgets his fear and smiles too.
+
+They play with the old things. They read the books and play with the toys and try on the clothes and look at the pictures. They have fun. They forget about the time.
+
+Then they hear Mommy calling them. She sounds angry.
+
+"Sara! Ben! Where are you? Come down right now!"
+
+Sara and Ben look at each other. They are in trouble. They run down the stairs. They close the door. They go to Mommy.
+
+"Sorry, Mommy," they say. "We found some stairs and a room. We wanted to see what was there."
+
+Mommy is not happy. She scolds them. She says the stairs are bad. She says they could have been hurt. She says they should not go there again. She says they should listen to her.
+
+Sara and Ben feel sorry. They hug Mommy. They say they love her. They say they will not go there again.
+
+Mommy hugs them back. She says she loves them too. She says she is glad they are safe. She says they can play in their room.
+
+Sara and Ben go to their room. They play with their own things. They are happy. They still wonder what is in the room. But they do not go there again. They listen to Mommy. They know she knows best.
+Lily wanted a haircut. She had long hair that got in her eyes and mouth. She asked her mom to take her to the salon. Mom said yes and they got in the car.
+
+At the salon, Lily saw a lady with a spray bottle. The lady smiled and said, "Hi, I'm Anna. I'm going to give you a haircut. Do you like spray?" Lily nodded. She liked spray. It felt cool and wet on her hair. Anna sprayed Lily's hair and combed it. Then she took scissors and cut it.
+
+Lily watched in the mirror. She saw her hair getting shorter and shorter. She felt nervous. What if she didn't like it? What if it looked funny? She hoped Anna knew what she was doing.
+
+When Anna was done, she turned Lily around and said, "There, you're all done. What do you think?" Lily looked at her new haircut. It was short and neat. It didn't get in her eyes or mouth. It looked cute and pretty. Lily smiled. She liked it. She said, "Thank you, Anna. I love it."
+
+Mom came over and hugged Lily. She said, "Wow, Lily, you look impressive. You have a beautiful haircut. You're such a big girl." Lily felt happy and proud. She thanked Anna again and gave her a tip. Then she and Mom left the salon. Lily couldn't wait to show her haircut to her friends. She felt like a new person.
+Lily and her mom moved to a new house. Lily was upset. She missed her old house and her friends. She did not like the new house. It was big and scary.
+
+Mom said they had to unpack their things. Lily did not want to unpack. She wanted to go back to her old house. She cried and kicked the boxes. Mom was sad. She hugged Lily and said they would be happy in the new house.
+
+Lily saw a big box with her name on it. She opened it and found her toys. She saw her teddy bear, her doll, and her doctor kit. She smiled and hugged them. She liked her toys. She decided to play doctor with them.
+
+She put on her doctor coat and hat. She gave her teddy bear a check-up. She listened to his heart, looked in his ears, and gave him a band-aid. She said he was a good patient. She did the same for her doll. She said she was a good doctor.
+
+Mom watched Lily play. She was happy. She said Lily was a very good doctor. She said she was proud of her. She said they would make new friends in the new house. She said they would be happy.
+
+Lily looked at mom. She said she was sorry for being upset. She said she loved mom. She said she liked her toys. She said she would try to like the new house. She said she would be happy.
+Tommy liked to dig holes in the garden. He had a big shovel and a bucket. He dug holes every day. He wanted to find something shiny or funny in the dirt. His mom and dad told him to stop digging holes. They said he would make a mess and hurt the plants. But Tommy was persistent. He did not listen. He kept digging holes.
+
+One day, Tommy dug a very big hole. He was sure he would find something good. He dug and dug until he saw something shiny. He reached for it with his hand. But it was not something good. It was a bee's nest. The bees were angry. They came out of the hole and buzzed around Tommy. They stung him on his face and his arms. Tommy screamed and ran away. He dropped his shovel and his bucket.
+
+His mom and dad heard him and came to help. They saw the hole and the bees. They saw Tommy's face and arms. They felt sorry for him. They took him inside and put some cream on his stings. They gave him a hug and a cookie. They said, "We told you to stop digging holes. You did not listen. Now you received a bad surprise. Next time, you should listen to us. We know what is good for you."
+
+Tommy felt sad and sorry. He said, "I'm sorry, mom and dad. I was silly. I wanted to find something good. But I found something bad. I will not dig holes anymore. I will listen to you. You are right. You know what is good for me."
+
+His mom and dad smiled and kissed him. They said, "We love you, Tommy. We are glad you learned your lesson. Now you can play with something else. How about your blocks or your ball?"
+
+Tommy nodded and smiled. He said, "Yes, please. I like my blocks and my ball. They are good and fun. Thank you, mom and dad."
+
+The end.
+Sam and Ben were brothers who liked to play pretend. One day, they decided to be spies and sneak into the big house next door. They put on their dark clothes and masks and grabbed their flashlights.
+
+"Are you ready, Ben?" Sam whispered.
+
+"Yes, Sam. Let's go!" Ben whispered back.
+
+They crawled under the fence and ran across the yard. They saw a window that was open and climbed inside. They looked around and saw many shiny things and books and paintings. They felt very excited and curious.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Sam said, picking up a shiny ring.
+
+"Shh, Sam, someone might hear us!" Ben said, looking around nervously.
+
+But it was too late. A loud voice boomed from behind them.
+
+"Who are you and what are you doing here?" the voice said.
+
+They turned around and saw a big man with a stern face and a badge. He was a police officer who lived in the big house. He had heard them from his bedroom and came to check.
+
+Sam and Ben dropped the ring and the flashlight and tried to run away, but the police officer was faster and caught them.
+
+"You are in big trouble, boys. You are not spies, you are thieves. You are going to jail!" the police officer said.
+
+Sam and Ben felt very scared and sorry. They wished they had never played pretend. They realized that being a spy was not fun, but dangerous and wrong. They learned a hard lesson that day.
+Tim and Jen are twins who like to play in the park. One day, they see a big box under a tree. They wonder what is inside. Is it a toy? Is it a cake? Is it a mystery?
+
+They run to the box and try to open it. But the box is very heavy and hard. They pull and push, but the box does not move. They need something strong to open it.
+
+They look around and see a big stick. Tim picks up the stick and hits the box. The box makes a loud noise. Jen covers her ears. Tim hits the box again and again. The box breaks and reveals what is inside.
+
+Tim and Jen gasp. Inside the box are many books. Books with pictures and words. Books with stories and facts. Books with colors and shapes. Books for Tim and Jen to read and learn.
+
+Tim and Jen are happy. They hug each other and thank the tree. They take the books and sit under the tree. They open the books and start to read. They have found a mystery and a treasure.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. Sometimes they share, sometimes they fight. One day, they have a big fight over a blue car. They yell and pull and push.
+
+"Mine!" Lily says.
+
+"No, mine!" Ben says.
+
+Their mom hears their loud voice. She is not happy. She comes to their room. She has a stern voice.
+
+"Stop fighting, now!" she orders. "You have to take turns with the car. Lily, you play with it for five minutes, then give it to Ben. Ben, you wait for your turn. If you don't listen, I will take the car away. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They don't want to lose the car. They say sorry to each other. They follow their mom's order. They play with the car and other toys. They are nice and quiet.
+
+Their mom smiles. She is happy. She goes back to her work. She likes the peaceful sound of her children playing. She thinks they are good twins. She loves them very much.
+Lily liked to read books. She had many books in her room. Some books had pictures, some books had words. Lily wanted to learn new words. She saw a big book on the shelf. It was a dictionary. Lily took the book and opened it.
+
+"What are you doing, Lily?" her mom asked.
+
+"I want to read this book, mom. It has many words," Lily said.
+
+"That's a dictionary, Lily. It's not a story book. It tells you what words mean. You can use it to look up words you don't know," her mom explained.
+
+Lily nodded. She thought the dictionary was pretty. It had many colors and letters. She wanted to find a word she liked. She turned the pages and looked at the words. She saw a word that had a picture next to it. It was a word she knew. It was "cake".
+
+Lily smiled. She loved cake. She pointed at the word and said, "Cake! I want cake, mom. Can we have cake?"
+
+Her mom shook her head. "No, Lily. We can't have cake now. It's almost dinner time. You have to eat your vegetables first. Maybe we can have cake later, if you are good."
+
+Lily frowned. She didn't like vegetables. She wanted cake now. She was angry. She threw the dictionary on the floor. She screamed, "No! I want cake! I want cake!"
+
+Her mom was shocked. She was angry too. She picked up the dictionary and saw that it was torn and dirty. She said, "Lily, how could you do that? You ruined the dictionary. It was a gift from your grandma. She gave it to you because she wanted you to learn new words. You were very naughty. You can't have cake. You have to go to your room and think about what you did."
+
+Lily realized that she made a big mistake. She was sorry. She wanted to say sorry to her mom and her grandma. But it was too late. Her mom took her to her room and closed the door. Lily cried. She wished she didn't throw the dictionary. She wished she could have cake. She wished she could read a story book. But she couldn't. She was alone and sad. She had a bad ending.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and laugh. But they did not like the mosquitoes. The mosquitoes were small and noisy and they bit them. The bites made them itch and hurt.
+
+"Go away, mosquitoes!" Tom shouted. He tried to hit them with his hand, but he missed. He saw a big glass jar on the table. He had an idea. He ran to the jar and grabbed it. He wanted to catch the mosquitoes in the jar.
+
+"Tom, what are you doing?" Lily asked. She followed him to the table.
+
+"I want to trap the mosquitoes. Then they can't bite us anymore," Tom said. He opened the lid of the jar and swung it in the air. He hoped to catch some mosquitoes inside.
+
+But Tom was not careful. He swung the jar too hard and too fast. He hit the edge of the table with the jar. The jar broke. The glass shattered. The pieces flew everywhere. Tom and Lily screamed. They were scared and hurt. They had cuts on their arms and legs. The blood dripped from their wounds.
+
+"Tom, you broke the jar! You hurt us!" Lily cried. She was angry and sad.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to. I just wanted to stop the mosquitoes," Tom said. He was sorry and ashamed.
+
+Their mom heard their screams. She ran to the garden. She saw the broken jar and the glass and the blood. She was shocked and worried. She hugged Tom and Lily and took them inside. She cleaned their cuts and put bandages on them. She gave them a hug and a kiss.
+
+"Mom, I'm sorry. I broke the jar. I wanted to catch the mosquitoes," Tom said.
+
+"Mom, Tom broke the jar. He hurt me and himself," Lily said.
+
+"I know, my loves. I'm glad you're okay. But you have to be more careful. You can't break things that are not yours. You can't hurt yourself or others. You have to respect the things and the people around you. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+"Yes, Mom. We understand. We're sorry," Tom and Lily said.
+
+"Good. I love you both. Now, let's go and have some ice cream. That will make you feel better," Mom said.
+
+They went to the kitchen and had some ice cream. They felt better. They forgot about the mosquitoes. The mosquitoes were disgusting. But they were not worth breaking things and hurting people. Tom and Lily learned their lesson. They decided to play more nicely and safely. They thanked their mom for taking care of them. They hugged each other and smiled.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They like to slide, swing and run. Lily has a soft toy bunny in her pocket. She loves her bunny very much. She calls him Fluffy.
+
+"Look, Ben, this is Fluffy. He is my best friend. He is very soft and cuddly. Do you want to hold him?" Lily asks.
+
+"Sure, Lily. He is very cute. Can I give him a hug?" Ben says.
+
+Lily nods and gives Fluffy to Ben. Ben hugs Fluffy and smiles. He puts Fluffy back in Lily's pocket.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. Fluffy likes you too. Let's go to the slide now. It is very fun." Lily says.
+
+They run to the slide and take turns to slide down. They laugh and scream. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But then, Lily feels something is wrong. She touches her pocket and it is empty. Fluffy is gone!
+
+"Ben, Ben, help me! I lost Fluffy! He is not in my pocket anymore!" Lily cries.
+
+"Oh no, Lily, I'm sorry. Where did he go? Maybe he fell out when we were sliding. Let's look for him." Ben says.
+
+They search the slide, the swing, the grass, the bench, everywhere. But they cannot find Fluffy. Lily is very sad. She starts to cry.
+
+"Fluffy, Fluffy, where are you? Please come back to me. I miss you so much." Lily sobs.
+
+Ben feels bad for Lily. He tries to comfort her.
+
+"Don't cry, Lily. Maybe someone found Fluffy and will bring him back. Or maybe we can ask the park lady if she saw him. She is very nice. She might help us." Ben says.
+
+Lily wipes her tears and nods. She hopes Ben is right. She hopes Fluffy is safe and happy. She hopes they can find him soon. She holds Ben's hand and they walk to the park lady. They hope for a miracle.
+Lily was anxious. She wanted to wear her new dress to the party, but Mom said it was too cold. Mom gave her a sweater and pants, but Lily did not like them. She wanted to look pretty and twirl in her dress.
+
+"No, Mom, no!" Lily cried. "I want my dress! Please, Mom, please!"
+
+Mom sighed. "Lily, you can wear your dress inside the house, but you need to wear something warm outside. It's snowing, and you don't want to get sick, do you?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not want to get sick, but she also did not want to wear the sweater and pants. She had an idea. She ran to her room and put on her dress over the sweater and pants. She looked at herself in the mirror and smiled. She was pretty and warm.
+
+She ran back to Mom and said, "Look, Mom, look! I have my dress and my warm clothes. Can we go to the party now?"
+
+Mom smiled and hugged her. "You are very clever, Lily. And very pretty. Yes, we can go to the party now. But remember to wear your coat and boots, too."
+
+Lily nodded. She put on her coat and boots and grabbed Mom's hand. They went outside and saw the snow. Lily was happy. She jumped in the snow and laughed. She was ready for the party.

+
+One day, a big boy came to the park. He was harsh and mean. He took Tom's bike and Lily's kite. He said, "These are mine now. Go away, you are too small."
+
+Tom and Lily were sad and scared. They did not know what to do. They wanted their toys back.
+
+They saw a man who was sitting on a bench. He was reading a book. He looked kind and friendly. They went to him and said, "Please help us. The big boy took our toys. He is harsh and mean. We want our toys back."
+
+The man looked at them and smiled. He said, "Don't worry, I will help you. I care about you. You are brave and good. Come with me, we will talk to the big boy."
+
+The man took Tom and Lily by the hand and walked to the big boy. He said, "Hello, I am the park keeper. I see you have some toys that are not yours. These toys belong to Tom and Lily. They are youths who like to play in the park. They shared their toys and had fun. You should not take their toys. You should be nice and fair. Can you give their toys back?"
+
+The big boy was surprised and ashamed. He did not expect the park keeper to come. He said, "I'm sorry, I was harsh and mean. I did not care about them. I was bored and lonely. I wanted to play too."
+
+The park keeper said, "It's okay, you can say sorry to Tom and Lily. They might let you play with them if you are nice and fair. You can also make new friends in the park. There are many youths who like to play. You can share your toys and have fun."
+
+The big boy said sorry to Tom and Lily. He gave their toys back. He asked them if he could play with them. Tom and Lily said yes. They were kind and forgiving. They played with the ball, the bike and the kite. They had fun.
+
+The park keeper watched them and smiled. He was happy and proud. He said, "You are all good youths. You care about each other. You are nice and fair. You have fun. You make me happy."

+
+They gather some sticks and stones and put them in a bag. They say bye to their mom and dad and start to walk to the hill. They hold hands and sing a song. They are happy.
+
+When they get to the hill, they see a lot of flowers and trees. They also see a small pond with some frogs and fish. They put their bag down and run to the pond. They look at the water and the animals. They say hello to the frogs and the fish.
+
+"Can we touch them?" Mia asks Tom.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe they are scared of us," Tom says.
+
+They sit on the grass and watch the pond. They feel the cool breeze on their faces. They smell the flowers and the trees. They hear the birds and the bees. They are calm.
+
+They eat some snacks from their bag and share them with each other. They talk about their favorite things and their dreams. They are friends.
+
+They decide to go back to their house before it gets dark. They pick some flowers and put them in their bag. They say bye to the pond and the animals. They walk down the hill and sing another song. They are happy.
+Anna and Ben are playing dress-up in their room. Anna finds a white veil in a box and puts it on her head. She feels like a princess.
+
+"Look at me, Ben!" she says. "I am a princess with a veil!"
+
+Ben looks at her and smiles. He likes to play with Anna. He finds a hat and a coat and puts them on. He feels like a detective.
+
+"You are a pretty princess, Anna," he says. "But I am a detective with a hat!"
+
+Anna and Ben pretend to go on an adventure. They look for clues and mysteries in their room. They find a tall lamp and a big book and a soft pillow.

+
+But when the show time comes, she sees that another boy has the same dinosaur as her. His name is Ben, and he also likes history toys. He says his dinosaur is better than hers, because it can roar and move its tail. He makes it roar at Lily's dinosaur, and says it is more wild and scary.

+
+"Where is the gorilla?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know," Max said. "Maybe he is sleeping. Or maybe he is shy."

+

+Tom and Sam nod and say, "OK, Mom. We will ask you first. Can we play with the cars and trucks now?"

+
+They looked at the sky and saw a big yellow ball. It was the sun. The sun was very bright and warm. It smiled at Sam and Lily and said, "Don't worry, I will help you. I will make the mist go away."
+
+The sun shone and shone and shone. The mist got smaller and smaller and smaller. Soon, it was gone. Sam and Lily cheered. They grabbed their basket and ran to their mom.
+

+Their mom was very happy and surprised. She hugged them and thanked them. She said, "You are very sweet and thoughtful. I love you very much. Let's go and enjoy your picnic."

It chased Tim and Jen to the car.
+
+Tim and Jen got in the car and locked the doors. They cried and hugged each other. They hoped Mom and Dad would be okay. But the bear was too strong and fast. It broke the car window and dragged Tim and Jen out. It ate them up and left nothing behind. The picnic was over. The bear was full.

+
+"Wow, Anna, these are very good!" her mom said. "You are very talented."
+
+"Thank you, mom. I love birds. They are so free and happy," Anna said.
+
+Her dad smiled and hugged her. "I love birds too, Anna. But you know, you can be anything you want when you grow up. You don't have to be a bird. You can be a lawyer, like me."
+
+Anna looked at her dad. He wore a suit and a tie and carried a big bag of papers. He always looked busy and tired. He sometimes had to go to a big building and talk to a lot of people. He said his job was very difficult and important.
+
+"What is a lawyer, dad?" Anna asked.
+
+"A lawyer is someone who helps people with their problems. Sometimes people have fights or get hurt or lose their things. A lawyer tries to make things fair and right. A lawyer uses words and rules and books," her dad explained.
+
+Anna thought for a moment. She liked to help people, but she did not like fights or hurts or losses. She liked words, but she did not like rules or books. She liked to use her imagination and colors and shapes.
+
+"I don't think I want to be a lawyer, dad. I think I want to be a bird," she said.
+
+Her dad laughed and kissed her cheek. "That's okay, Anna. You can be a bird if you want. But remember, you can also be anything else you want. You have a lot of choices and a lot of time. Just follow your dreams and your heart."

+They ran to the object and looked inside. It was dark and empty. They heard a noise. It was a hiss.
+
+"Snake!" Ben shouted.
+
+They were scared. They tried to run away. But the object was not empty. It was a trap. A big spring came out of the hole and caught them. It was strong and tight. It hurt them.

+
+But the dog did not go away. It kept jumping and barking. Tim and Mia hugged each other. They felt their skin touch. They felt warm and safe.

+
+"Mia, I'm glad you are here, too," Tim said. "We are friends. We can unite and be brave."

+"Sorry, we don't have any money. Can we give you our toys instead?" Tom said.
+
+The man frowned and shook his head. "No, no, no. You have to pay with money. If you don't have money, you can't have the milk. Give me back the cups."
+
+Tom and Lily felt sad and scared. They did not want to give back the milk. They were thirsty and hungry.
+
+"Please, mister, can we have a sip of the milk? Just a little bit?" Lily begged.
+
+The man looked at them with a mysterious smile. He said, "Okay, okay. You can have a sip of the milk. But only one sip each. And then you have to give me back the cups. Deal?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They were happy and relieved. They took a sip of the milk. It was cold and sweet. They liked it very much.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Tom and Lily felt sick. Their stomachs hurt. Their mouths felt funny. They started to cough and spit.

+
+They think the hurricane is impressive. It is like nothing they have ever seen before. They wonder how it works and what it does. They ask their mom many questions. She tells them that hurricanes are storms that form over the ocean and move to the land. She tells them that hurricanes have a lot of energy and can cause damage and floods. She tells them that hurricanes have names and that this one is called Laura.
+
+Tom and Mia learn a lot about hurricanes. They study the book and the sky some more. They hope that Laura will go away soon and that everyone will be okay. They also hope that they will see another hurricane someday, but only from far away.

+
+Ben closes his eyes and counts. "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. Ready or not, here I come!" He opens his eyes and looks around. He sees a big lump under the sheet on the bed. He thinks, "Anna is hiding there. I will find her."
+
+He runs to the bed and pulls the sheet. But it is not Anna. It is a broken lamp. The lamp falls on the floor and makes a loud noise. Ben is scared. He says, "Oh no! The lamp is broken. Mom will be mad."

+
+Ben says, "I'm sorry, Anna. I thought you were hiding under the sheet. I didn't mean to break the lamp."
+
+Anna says, "It's okay, Ben. It was an accident. Maybe we can fix the lamp. Or maybe we can tell Mom the truth and say we are sorry."
+
+Ben says, "Yes, let's do that. Come on, Anna. Let's go find Mom and tell her what happened." They hold hands and go to find Mom. They hope Mom will not be too mad. They still love to play hide and seek, but next time they will be more careful.

+Lila likes to print with her crayons. She prints big flowers and small stars on her paper. She prints her name and her mom's name too. She is happy when she prints.
+
+One day, Lila wakes up and sees fog outside. The fog is white and thick. She cannot see the trees or the cars. She cannot see the sun or the sky. She feels dizzy when she looks at the fog. She does not like the fog.
+
+She wants to print, but she cannot find her crayons. She looks under her bed and in her closet. She looks in the kitchen and in the living room. She cannot find her crayons anywhere. She is sad and angry. She thinks the fog took her crayons.
+
+She runs to her mom and tells her what happened. Her mom hugs her and says, "Don't worry, Lila. The fog did not take your crayons. They are in the drawer in the hall. I put them there yesterday when I cleaned your room. You can print as much as you want."
+
+Lila smiles and says, "Thank you, mom. I love you." She runs to the drawer and finds her crayons. She takes them to her room and starts to print. She prints a big sun and a blue sky. She prints a rainbow and a bird. She prints "I love mom" and "I love fog". She is happy again. She likes to print.
+Tom was a mailman. He liked to deliver letters and packages to people's houses. He had a big bag and a blue hat. He always said hello and smiled.
+
+One day, he had to deliver a big box to Mrs. Lee. He knocked on the door, but no one answered. He saw a note that said, "Please leave the box in the bathroom. I will be back soon. Thank you." Tom thought that was strange, but he did what the note said.
+
+He opened the door and went inside. He looked for the bathroom. He saw a door with a sign that said, "Bathroom". He opened it and saw a big surprise. There was a big mess in the bathroom. There was water and soap and bubbles everywhere. There was a naughty cat playing in the sink. There was a naughty dog chewing on the toilet paper. There was a naughty bird flying around and making noise.
+
+Tom was shocked. He did not know what to do. He tried to put the box down, but the cat jumped on it and scratched it. He tried to stop the dog, but the dog barked at him and ran away. He tried to catch the bird, but the bird flew out of the window.
+
+Tom was very sad. He did not want to make Mrs. Lee angry. He did not want to ruin her box. He did not want to leave the bathroom like that. He wished he had never seen the note. He wished he had never opened the door. He wished he had never met the naughty animals. He wished he could go home.

+
+But then, Max comes. Max is their cousin. He is older and bigger than them. He does not like to share. He sees their castle and wants it for himself. He pushes Lily and Ben away. He takes some of their blocks and breaks their castle. He laughs and says it is his castle now.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad and angry. They cry and shout. They want their castle back. They try to get their blocks from Max, but he is too strong. He pushes them again and again.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She comes and sees what is happening. She is not happy with Max. She tells him to stop and to say sorry. She tells him to share and to be nice.

+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and draw pictures. But sometimes they fight. They fight over who gets the red crayon, or who can ride the bike, or who can make the loudest noise. They are stubborn. They do not want to share or say sorry.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben find a journal in the park. It is a big book with many pages. Some pages have words, some have pictures, some are blank. Lily and Ben are curious. They want to see what is inside. But they also want to keep the journal for themselves. They pull and tug and shout. They rip the journal in half. They are sad and angry.
+

+
+Sara is sad. She does not like bugs. She does not want to be sick. She wants to eat the tomato now. She cries and stomps her feet. Her mom hugs her and says, "I know, Sara, you are hungry and you love tomatoes. But we have to be careful. There are more tomatoes in the garden. Let's go and find a safe one. Then we can wash it and cut it and share it. How does that sound?"
+
+Sara nods and wipes her tears. She trusts her mom. She follows her to another plant. There, they find a shiny red tomato with no bugs. Sara smiles and claps her hands. Her mom picks it and takes it to the sink. She washes it and cuts it in half. She gives one half to Sara and keeps one half for herself. They bite into the tomato and enjoy its flavor.

+
+One day, they were playing match on the floor of their room. They heard a loud noise outside. They looked out the window and saw dark clouds and rain. They saw flashes of light and heard more noise. They were scared. They ran to their mom and dad. They said, "There is a storm outside!"
+
+Mom and dad hugged them and said, "Don't worry, it's just a storm. It will go away soon. Storms can be impressive, but they are not dangerous if you stay inside. Do you want to watch the storm with us?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They went to the couch with their mom and dad. They wrapped themselves in a blanket. They watched the storm from the window. They saw the rain make puddles on the street. They saw the light make shapes in the sky. They heard the noise make echoes in the air. They were not scared anymore. They were curious.
+
+They asked their mom and dad many questions about the storm. They learned that the light was called lightning and the noise was called thunder. They learned that the storm was made of water and air. They learned that the storm would move to another place soon.
+
+They played a new game. They tried to match the shapes of the lightning with the shapes of their cards. They had fun. They forgot about their fear. They thought the storm was impressive.
+Lily loved to play ball with her big brother Tom. He could throw the ball very far and catch it very well. Lily wanted to be like him, but she was still small and slow. Sometimes Tom got bored and went to play with his friends. Then Lily felt lonely and sad.
+
+One day, Tom said he had a big game at the pitch. He asked Lily if she wanted to come and watch. Lily was very happy and said yes. She put on her hat and shoes and ran to the door. She wanted to hurry and not miss the game.
+
+Tom and Lily got to the pitch and saw many people. There were two teams of boys in different colors. Tom's team was red and the other team was blue. Tom gave Lily a hug and said he had to go and play. He told her to sit on the bench and cheer for him.
+
+Lily sat on the bench and watched the game. She saw Tom throw the ball very hard and fast. He was very good. The red team scored many points and the blue team scored few. Lily clapped and shouted for Tom. She was very proud of him.
+
+But after a while, Lily got tired and bored. She did not know anyone on the bench. She missed Tom and wanted to play with him. She felt lonely and sad. She wished the game would end soon and Tom would come back to her. She looked at the sky and saw a big cloud. She hoped it would not rain.
+Tom liked to play with his toy vehicles. He had a red car, a blue truck, a yellow bus and a green tractor. He made them zoom and beep and honk on the floor. He pretended they were going to different places, like the park, the farm, the store and the school.
+
+One day, he found a new vehicle in his toy box. It was a big white boat. It had a sail and a wheel and a flag. Tom was very happy. He wanted to play with the boat in the water. He asked his mom if he could.
+
+Mom said yes, but he had to be careful. She filled a big tub with water and put it in the backyard. She gave Tom a hat and a drink. She said he had to wear the hat and drink the drink, because it was a hot day and he could get sunburned or thirsty.
+
+Tom took his boat and his drink and went to the tub. He put the boat in the water and made it sail. He pretended he was a captain and he was going on an adventure. He saw fish and birds and islands. He had a lot of fun.
+
+But he forgot to wear his hat and drink his drink. He was so busy playing that he did not notice the sun was shining on his face and his hair. He did not notice that he was getting pale and dry. He did not notice that he was feeling hot and tired.
+
+Mom came to check on him. She saw that he was pale and his lips were cracked. She saw that his drink was still full and his hat was on the ground. She was worried. She took him inside and gave him some water and some lotion. She said he had to rest and cool down. She said he had to remember to wear his hat and drink his drink, or he could get sick.
+
+Tom was sorry. He said he was sorry and he hugged his mom. He said he liked his boat, but he liked his mom more. He said he would be more careful next time. He said he loved his mom.
+
+Mom smiled and kissed him. She said she loved him too. She said he could play with his boat again, but only when he was feeling better. She said he had to take care of himself and his skin. She said he was a good boy and a brave captain. She said she was proud of him.
+Lily was a girl who liked to play with her toys. She had many toys, but her favorite was a doll with a pink dress and long hair. She always kept her doll in a box with a lock, and she had the only key. She did not want to share her doll with anyone, not even her friends.
+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom and her doll. She saw some other kids playing with their toys and having fun. She wanted to join them, but she did not want to let them touch her doll. She put her doll back in the box and locked it. Then she went to play with the other kids.
+
+But soon, she found out that the other kids did not like her. They said she was mean and selfish. They did not want to play with her or share their toys with her. Lily felt sad and lonely. She wanted to hug her doll, but she could not. She had left the key at home.
+
+She ran to her mom and asked her to take her home. She wanted to unlock her box and see her doll. But her mom said they had to wait for the bus. The bus was late and Lily had to wait for a long time. She cried and cried.
+
+A lady who was sitting next to them saw Lily crying. She felt sorry for her. She asked her mom what was wrong. Her mom told her about Lily's doll and her key. The lady said she had a gift for Lily. She gave her a small book with pictures and stories. She said it was a magic book. She said if Lily opened the book and looked at the pictures, she would see wonderful sights. She said the book would make her happy and smart.
+
+Lily was curious. She took the book and opened it. She saw pictures of animals, flowers, stars, and rainbows. She saw words that she could read. She felt happy and amazed. She thanked the lady and smiled.
+
+The lady said she was glad. She said she had a lesson for Lily. She said toys are nice, but they are not everything. She said sharing is good, but locking is bad. She said Lily should not be afraid to share her doll with her friends. She said her friends would like her more and play with her more. She said Lily would have more fun and more sights.
+
+Lily thought about what the lady said. She felt sorry for being mean and selfish. She decided to share her doll with her friends. She asked her mom to take her back to the park. She wanted to unlock her box and show her doll to the other kids. She wanted to make friends and have fun.
+
+Her mom was proud of her. She said she had learned a good lesson. She said she had a surprise for her. She said she had found her key in her pocket. She said she had kept it safe for her. She said she could unlock her box and see her doll.
+
+Lily was happy. She hugged her mom and thanked her. She unlocked her box and saw her doll. She felt happy and loved. She ran to the other kids and showed them her doll. She asked them to play with her and her doll. The other kids were happy too. They said Lily was nice and generous. They said they wanted to be her friends and share their toys with her. They played together and had fun.
+
+Lily learned a good lesson. She learned that sharing is better than locking. She learned that toys are not everything. She learned that sights are wonderful. She learned that friends are precious. She was happy and smart. She was a good girl.
+Tom and Lily were friends who liked to play together. One day, they found a big box in the park. It had a sign that said "Do not open". Tom was curious and wanted to see what was inside. Lily was scared and told him to leave it alone.
+
+"Come on, Lily, it will be fun. Maybe there is a toy or a candy in the box. The sign is just a trick to keep us away. It is easy to open, see?" Tom said as he pulled the lid of the box.
+
+"No, Tom, please stop. We should listen to the sign. It might be dangerous or bad. What if there is a snake or a spider or a monster in the box?" Lily said as she backed away.
+
+But Tom did not listen to Lily. He opened the box and peeked inside. He saw something shiny and reached for it. But as soon as he touched it, he felt a sharp pain in his hand. He screamed and dropped the box. He looked at his hand and saw blood. He had cut himself on a broken glass.
+
+Lily ran to him and tried to help him. She wrapped his hand with her scarf and hugged him. She was very worried and sad. She said, "I'm sorry, Tom, are you okay? We should go to the nurse and tell her what happened. Maybe she can make your hand better."
+
+Tom was crying and shaking. He felt very sorry and stupid. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily, you were right. I should have listened to you. I regret opening the box. It was a bad idea. I was greedy and foolish. I hope you are not mad at me."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I'm not mad at you, Tom. You are my friend and I love you. But I hope you learned your lesson. Sometimes, it is better to obey the rules and be careful. Not everything that looks good is good. And not everything that is easy is right."
+
+The end.

Can you come home with me?" The parrot says, "Yes, yes! I want to come home with you. We can sing and play together every day." Lily says, "That sounds great, parrot! Let's go and ask my mom." They hold hands and walk to the counter. Lily's mom sees them and smiles. She says, "Hello, Lily. Who is your new friend?" Lily says, "This is parrot, mom. He likes to sing. Can we keep him, please?" Lily's mom says, "Well, he is a very cute and smart parrot. And he seems to like you a lot. I think we can keep him, if you promise to take good care of him." Lily says, "I promise, mom. I will feed him, clean him, and love him. Thank you, mom. You are the best!" Lily's mom says, "You are welcome, Lily. You are the best, too!" They pay for the parrot and take him home.

+
+"Mom is not here. She will not know. I dare you to go with me. Don't be a baby." Ben said.
+
+Sam was scared, but he did not want Ben to call him a baby. He followed Ben to the boat. They climbed on the boat and looked around. They saw ropes, nets, barrels, and fish. They thought they were pirates.

+The day after that, they went to the garden again. They saw that the sprout had grown a lot more. They could see a bud at the top. They wondered what color the flower would be. They were very excited and watered it carefully. They also saw the worm again. It was bigger and fatter. It was moving closer to the sprout. They felt curious and wanted to play with it. But mom said no. She said the worm was very dirty and very hungry. She said it could eat the sprout and the flower. She said they had to scare it away.
+
+The last day, they went to the garden again. They saw that the sprout had grown into a flower. It was yellow and bright. It smelled sweet and nice. They were very happy and clapped their hands. They also saw the worm again. It was huge and ugly. It had a big mouth and sharp teeth. It was right next to the flower. They felt scared and wanted to run away. But it was too late. The worm opened its mouth and bit the flower. It chewed it and swallowed it. It left nothing but a stump. They cried and screamed. Mom came and saw what happened. She was very sad and angry. She said the worm was very bad and very greedy. She said it ruined their flower. She said they had to get rid of it. She got a shovel and hit the worm. The worm wriggled and squealed. It spat out the flower. But the flower was broken and dirty. It was not beautiful anymore. They cried and cried. They wished they had listened to mom. They wished they had never seen the worm. They wished they still had their flower.

+Sam liked to play in the park with his friends. He liked to swing, slide, and run on the grass. But his mom said he could only go on Wednesday, when she had no work. She said it was too far and too busy on other days. Sam did not like that. He wanted to go every day.

+One day, Sam had a plan. He woke up early and put on his shoes and coat. He took his ball and sneaked out of the house. He thought his mom would not notice. He ran to the park, feeling happy and free. He saw his friends and joined them in a game.
+
+But he did not see the big clouds in the sky. He did not hear the thunder. He did not feel the wind. Soon, it started to rain. It rained hard and fast. Sam and his friends got wet and cold.

+Lily liked to whistle. She learned how to whistle from her dad, who whistled all the time. He whistled when he cooked, when he cleaned, when he played with Lily. He whistled songs that had a rhythm, a beat that made Lily want to dance.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to whistle a song for her dad. She was eager to show him what she could do. She picked a song that she knew well, one that had a happy rhythm. She took a deep breath and put her lips together. She blew out air and made a sound. It was not a whistle. It was a puff.
+
+Lily tried again. She blew out air and made another sound. It was not a whistle. It was a hiss. Lily felt sad. She wanted to whistle like her dad, but she could not. She looked at her dad, who was smiling. He hugged her and said, "Don't worry, Lily. Whistling is hard. You need to practice. I will help you."
+
+He showed her how to shape her lips and tongue. He whistled softly and slowly. He asked Lily to copy him. Lily did. She blew out air and made a sound. It was a whistle. A tiny, quiet whistle.

+Timmy liked to play in the garden with his friends. They liked to dig, run, and hide behind the plants. Sometimes they found bugs or worms, and sometimes they found things to eat, like berries or carrots. But Timmy's favorite thing to find was radishes. He liked their red and white color, and their spicy taste.
+
+One day, Timmy saw a big radish poking out of the ground. He wanted to eat it, but he knew it was not his. It belonged to Mr. Brown, the old man who lived next door. Mr. Brown was very nice, and sometimes gave Timmy and his friends some of his vegetables. But he also worked very hard to grow them, and did not like anyone to take them without asking.
+
+Timmy thought maybe he could borrow the radish, and eat it quickly, and then put it back. He thought Mr. Brown would not notice, and he was very hungry. He looked around, and saw that Mr. Brown was not in the garden. He decided to take the radish, and ran to a corner where no one could see him. He pulled the radish out of the ground, and bit into it.
+
+But as soon as he did, he felt a sharp pain in his mouth. The radish was not juicy and spicy, but dry and bitter. It made Timmy cough and spit, and his tongue felt like fire. He dropped the radish, and ran to find some water. He did not see Mr. Brown coming back to the garden, with a bucket of water and a smile.
+
+Mr. Brown had seen Timmy take the radish, and knew what would happen. He had planted some dry and bitter radishes on purpose, to teach the children a lesson. He hoped they would learn not to borrow things without asking, and to respect his garden. He also hoped they would come back later, and he would give them some of his good radishes, and some water, and a hug. He liked Timmy and his friends, and wanted them to be happy and honest.
+Lily loved cookies. She loved them so much that she always wanted more. She would ask her mom and dad for cookies every day, but they would say no. They said cookies were not good for her teeth and tummy, and that she should eat other things too.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big house with a lot of windows and a big gate. She wondered who lived there. She walked closer and saw a sign that said "Mr. and Mrs. Wealthy". She thought that meant they had a lot of money and a lot of cookies. She wanted to see their cookies.
+
+She waited until the gate was open and sneaked inside. She saw a big garden with flowers and trees and a fountain. She also saw a big door that led to the house. She hoped no one would see her. She ran to the door and opened it.
+
+Inside, she saw a big hall with a lot of paintings and statues and shiny things. She also saw a big table with a lot of plates and cups and napkins. And on the table, she saw a big plate with a lot of cookies. They looked so yummy and sweet. She ran to the table and grabbed a cookie.
+
+But as soon as she bit the cookie, she heard a loud voice. It was Mr. Wealthy. He saw Lily and was very angry. He shouted, "Who are you? How did you get in here? What are you doing with my cookies?" He grabbed Lily and took her to the door. He said, "Go away and never come back. These are my cookies. I worked hard for them. You are a thief and a troublemaker."
+
+Lily was very scared and sad. She dropped the cookie and ran out of the gate. She cried all the way home. She realized that cookies were not worth stealing and lying. She also realized that Mr. and Mrs. Wealthy were not happy, even though they had a lot of money and a lot of cookies. She decided that she would rather have a little cookie and a lot of love than a lot of cookies and no love. She hugged her mom and dad and said she was sorry. They forgave her and gave her a cookie. She smiled and said, "I love you and I love cookies, but I love you more."

+Mia is surprised and scared by Tim's shout. She hugs her basket and says, "No, they are mine! I found them first! You have too many red blocks!"

+
+Tim and Mia feel sorry and ashamed. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We wanted to build a big tower, but we ran out of blocks. We got mad and noisy."
+
+Mom says, "I understand, but you can't shout and fight over toys. You have to use your words and ask politely. And you have to respect each other's choices. Maybe you can try to build a tower with different colors, or make something else with the blocks. Do you want to try again?"
+
+Tim and Mia nod and say, "Yes, Mom. We want to try again. We will share and play nicely."

They hear the man say, "I worked hard to paint this wall. It was my gift to the community. Now it is ruined. I have to paint it again."
+
+Lila and Ben feel sorry. They realize they did something wrong. They come out from the tree. They say, "We are sorry, sir. We marked your wall. We did not know it was your gift. We wanted to make it pretty. But the rain took it away."
+
+The man looks at them. He sees they are honest and sorry. He says, "I forgive you, children. But you should not mark other people's things. You should ask first. You should respect their work. You should use paper or canvas or your own wall. Then you can keep your art and show it to others."
+
+Lila and Ben nod. They say, "Thank you, sir. We understand. We will not mark your wall again. We will use paper or canvas or our own wall. We will respect your work and your gift."
+
+The man smiles. He says, "You are welcome, children. You are good and smart. You learned from your mistake. You can still be my friends. And maybe, one day, I will teach you how to paint with me."
+
+Lila and Ben smile too. They say, "Thank you, sir. We would like that. You are kind and generous. You are our friend too."
+
+They hug the man. They hug each other. They go home happy. They learned a lesson. They learned to respect other people's things. They learned to mark with care. They learned to love art.
+Ben and Lily liked to play in the garden. They liked to dig and look for bugs and worms. One day, they saw a big hole in the grass. They wondered what made the hole.
+
+They got a stick and poked the hole. They heard a squeak. They poked again. They heard a snap. They jumped back. A mole came out of the hole. It was brown and furry and had a long nose. It looked angry.
+
+The mole saw Ben and Lily. It made a loud noise. It sounded like a growl. Ben and Lily were scared. They ran to the house. They told their mom about the mole. She said they should not poke holes in the garden. They might hurt the animals that live there.
+
+Ben and Lily said they were sorry. They learned not to bother the mole. They played with their toys instead. They were still curious about the mole, but they left it alone. They hoped it was not too mad at them.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play together. One day, they found a coin on the floor. It was shiny and round and had a picture of a man on it.
+
+"Look, Ben, a coin!" Lily said. "Maybe we can buy something yummy with it."
+
+"Like what?" Ben asked.
+
+"Like ice cream, or candy, or cookies," Lily said.
+
+They ran to the store with the coin in Lily's hand. They saw many yummy things in the store, but they did not know how much they cost.
+
+"Can we have this, please?" Lily asked the store lady, pointing to a big ice cream cone.
+
+The store lady looked at the coin and shook her head. "No, sorry, this is not enough. You need more coins for this."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sad. They looked around and saw a small candy bar. It was not as yummy as the ice cream, but it looked good.
+
+"Can we have this, please?" Ben asked the store lady, holding the coin.
+
+The store lady nodded. "Yes, this is enough. Here you go."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They thanked the store lady and ran outside. They decided to share the candy bar, because they were twins and they loved each other.
+
+They opened the wrapper and broke the candy bar in half. They each took a bite and made a happy sound.
+
+"Mmm, this is yummy!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, it is!" Ben agreed.
+
+They ate the candy bar and licked their fingers. They felt happy and full. They did not need the ice cream, or the candy, or the cookies. They had each other and a coin. That was enough.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pond with ducks and fish. They want to feed them.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have some bread. Do you want some?" Tom asks.
+
+"Yes, please. Thank you, Tom. You are nice," Lily says.
+
+They break the bread and throw it to the ducks and fish. The ducks and fish come closer and eat the bread. Tom and Lily are happy.
+
+"Can I touch them?" Tom wonders.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe they will bite," Lily says.
+
+Tom is brave. He puts his hand in the water. He feels something wet and soft. He pulls his hand out. He has a fish in his hand!
+
+"Wow, Tom, you caught a fish!" Lily says.
+
+Tom is surprised. He looks at the fish. The fish looks at him. The fish opens its mouth and kisses Tom on the nose!
+
+"Ouch! The fish kissed me!" Tom says.
+
+Lily laughs. She thinks it is funny. Tom does not like it. He puts the fish back in the water.
+
+"Bye, fish. Don't kiss me again," Tom says.
+
+Tom and Lily go back to the shore. They are wet and cold. They need a test.
+
+"Are you okay, Tom?" Lily asks.
+
+"I'm okay, Lily. But I don't like fish kisses. They are wet and icky," Tom says.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom. Do you want a hug?" Lily asks.
+
+"Yes, please. I like hugs. They are warm and nice," Tom says.
+
+Lily hugs Tom. Tom hugs Lily. They are friends. They like to play in the park.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play in the garden. They liked to swing on the vine that hung from the big tree. The vine was strong and fun and made them feel like monkeys.
+
+One day, a new boy came to the garden. His name was Max and he wanted to swing on the vine too. He asked Lily and Ben if he could join them. Lily and Ben said yes, because they were kind and wanted to make a new friend.
+
+But Max was not kind. He was jealous of Lily and Ben. He wanted the vine all for himself. He swung on the vine so hard and so long that he did not let Lily and Ben have a turn. He said the vine was his and he did not permit them to touch it.
+
+Lily and Ben were sad and angry. They did not like Max. They did not want to play with him. They told him to go away and leave them alone. They said the vine was for everyone and he was being mean.
+
+Max did not listen. He did not care. He kept swinging on the vine and laughing at Lily and Ben. He thought he was the best and the coolest.
+
+But then, something bad happened. The vine broke. It snapped and tore and fell to the ground. Max fell with it and hurt himself. He cried and screamed and wished he had been nice.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for Max. They ran to him and helped him up. They asked him if he was okay and if he needed a hug. They said they were sorry for the vine and for him.
+
+Max felt ashamed and sorry too. He realized he had been wrong and rude. He apologized to Lily and Ben and said he wanted to be their friend. He said he would share and be kind and permit them to swing on the vine if they found a new one.
+
+Lily and Ben smiled and forgave Max. They said they would be his friend and help him find a new vine. They said they were glad he learned his lesson and changed his mind.
+
+They hugged and walked away, looking for a new vine to swing on and have fun. They were happy and hopeful and not jealous anymore.
+Tom is a big boy. He likes to wear his belt. His belt is blue and has a star on it. He thinks his belt makes him strong and fast.

+
+He runs to the door and calls his mom. "Mom, mom, I am ready. Let's go to the park." His mom comes and sees him. She smiles too. She likes his belt. She says, "You look very nice, Tom. But you forgot something."
+
+Tom looks at himself. He has his belt, his shirt, his shoes. What did he forget? He thinks hard. Then he remembers. He forgot his pants. He laughs. He runs back to his room and puts on his pants. Then he comes back to the door. He says, "Now I am ready. Let's go to the park." His mom nods. She takes his hand and they go to the park. Tom has a lot of fun. He loves his belt.

+
+But the dog was not mean. It was friendly. It wagged its tail and licked Lily's hand. It wanted to play with her. Lily felt the dog's tongue. It was warm and wet. She smelled the dog's fur. It was sweet and musky. She touched the dog's ears. They were soft and floppy.
+
+Lily smiled. She was not scared anymore. She liked the dog. She threw the ball and the dog ran after it. They played together for a long time. They had fun. Lily made a new friend. She called the dog Spot. She hoped to see him again. She liked the sight of him.
+Tom and Lily like to play games. They have many games at home, but they want a new one. Mom says they can go to the market and buy one, if they are good.
+
+At the market, they see many things. They see fruits and flowers and toys and books. They see a big game with a wheel and a man. The man says, "Spin the wheel and win a prize!" Tom and Lily want to try.
+
+Mom gives them some money and they go to the wheel. Tom spins first. The wheel goes round and round and stops on a star. The man says, "You win a candy!" Tom is happy. He takes the candy and eats it.
+
+Lily spins next. The wheel goes round and round and stops on a moon. The man says, "You win a doll!" Lily is very happy. She takes the doll and hugs it.
+
+Mom says, "You are both lucky! Let's go home and play with your new game." Tom and Lily say, "Yes, Mom!" They are happy and excited. They run to the car with their prize.

+
+One day, her mom was making soup on the stove. She told Anna to stay away from the stove, because it was very hot and could hurt her. But Anna wanted to see the soup and smell it. She waited until her mom went to get some bread, and then she climbed on a chair and reached for the pot.
+
+But the pot was too heavy and hot for Anna. She dropped it and the soup spilled all over the stove and the floor. Anna screamed and jumped off the chair. She burned her hand and got soup on her dress. Her mom heard her and ran to the kitchen.
+
+She saw the mess and Anna's troubled face. She was angry and scared. She hugged Anna and checked her hand. She said, "Anna, why did you do that? I told you to stop and not touch the stove. You could have been hurt very badly. You need to listen to me and be careful in the kitchen."
+
+Anna felt sorry and sad. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to see the soup. I didn't mean to make a mess and hurt myself. I love you, mom. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you too, Anna. But you need to learn from your mistake and follow the rules. The stove is not a toy. It is dangerous. Next time, you can help me by setting the table or stirring the soup with a spoon. But only when I say so. OK?"
+
+Anna nodded and said, "OK, mom. I will listen to you and be a good helper. Can I have a band-aid for my hand?"
+
+Her mom said, "Of course, sweetie. Let's go and clean your hand and get a band-aid. And then we can have some soup and bread. But be careful, it might be hot."

+Anna liked to play with soap. She liked to make bubbles and shapes with it. She liked to rub it on her skin and hair. She liked to smell it and taste it. She did not like to share it with her brother Tom.
+
+One day, Anna found a big soap in the bathroom. It was pink and shiny and smelled like flowers. She wanted to play with it. She did not ask her mom. She did not allow Tom to see it. She hid it under her bed.

+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play with magnets. They had many magnets of different shapes and colors that they could stick on the fridge or the metal board. One day, they decided to decorate their room with magnets. They took all their magnets and ran to their room.
+
+"Look, Ben, I can make a flower with these magnets!" Lily said, as she arranged some round and oval magnets on the wall.
+
+"That's nice, Lily, but I can make a car with these magnets!" Ben said, as he put some square and rectangle magnets on the floor.

+They were having fun, until they ran out of magnets. They both wanted the last magnet, which was a star. It was shiny and yellow, and they both liked it very much.
+
+"Give me the star, Lily, I need it for my car!" Ben said, as he tried to grab the magnet from Lily's hand.
+
+"No, Ben, I want the star for my flower!" Lily said, as she held the magnet tightly.
+
+They both pulled and tugged on the magnet, but neither of them would let go. They were very stubborn, and they started to cry.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" their mom said, as she heard the noise and came to their room. "Why are you fighting over a magnet?"
+
+"Because it's the last one, and we both want it!" Lily and Ben said at the same time.
+
+"Well, you can't have it both, can you?" their mom said. "Why don't you share it, or take turns, or find another way to decorate your room?"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other, and then at the magnet. They realized that their mom was right, and that fighting was not nice. They felt sorry for making each other sad.
+
+"Sorry, Lily, you can have the star," Ben said, as he let go of the magnet.
+
+"Sorry, Ben, you can have the star," Lily said, as she did the same.
+
+They both smiled, and hugged each other. Then they had an idea.
+
+"Hey, why don't we put the star in the middle of our room, and make a big circle with all the other magnets around it?" Ben said.
+
+"That sounds fun, let's do it!" Lily said.

+"Okay, Mom, we're sorry," Lily and Max said, nodding. They started to wipe the foam off the pillows and the blankets. They decided to play with their toys again, but this time, they would be more careful. They still liked volcanoes, but they would make them outside next time.
+Mia and Ben are twins. They like to play together. They have many toys in their room. But sometimes they get bored of their toys. Then they like to question their mom and dad.
+
+One day, they were very hungry. They went to the kitchen. They saw a big bowl of yogurt on the table. It looked yummy. They wanted to eat it.
+
+"Mom, can we have some yogurt?" Mia asked.
+
+"Sure, you can have some yogurt. But first, you have to wash your hands," Mom said.
+
+Mia and Ben ran to the bathroom. They washed their hands with soap and water. They dried them with a towel. They ran back to the kitchen.
+
+They climbed on the chairs. They took two spoons. They dipped them in the yogurt. They ate the yogurt. It was sweet and creamy. They liked it very much.
+
+"Mom, what is this in the yogurt?" Ben asked. He pointed to a small red thing.
+
+"That is a strawberry. It is a fruit. It is good for you," Mom said.
+
+"Mom, what is this in the yogurt?" Mia asked. She pointed to a small blue thing.
+
+"That is a blueberry. It is also a fruit. It is also good for you," Mom said.
+
+Mia and Ben ate the strawberries and the blueberries. They liked them too. They finished the yogurt. They licked their spoons. They smiled.
+
+"Mom, can we have more yogurt?" Mia asked.
+
+"Sorry, there is no more yogurt. You ate it all. But you can have some water or milk," Mom said.
+
+Mia and Ben drank some water. They felt full and happy. They thanked Mom for the yogurt.
+
+"Mom, can we go back to our room and play?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, you can go back to your room and play. But remember, it is almost nap time. You have to be quiet and sleepy soon," Mom said.
+
+Mia and Ben nodded. They went back to their room. They played with their toys. But they were not loud. They were sleepy. They yawned. They put their toys away. They crawled into their beds. They hugged their teddy bears. They closed their eyes. They fell asleep.
+Lily and Max were going to camp with Mom and Dad. They packed their bags and put them in the car. Lily had a pink bag and Max had a blue bag. They zipped their bags and checked if they had everything.
+
+"Did you pack your teddy bear, Lily?" Mom asked.
+
+"Yes, Mom, I did. He is in my bag. See?" Lily said and opened her bag a little. She showed Mom her teddy bear.
+
+"Good. And you, Max, did you pack your flashlight?" Dad asked.
+
+"Yes, Dad, I did. It is in my bag. See?" Max said and opened his bag a little. He showed Dad his flashlight.
+
+"Good. Then we are ready to go. Let's get in the car and drive to the camp." Mom said.
+
+They got in the car and drove to the camp. It was a long drive, but they saw many things on the way. They saw cows and horses and trees and flowers. They sang songs and played games. They were happy.
+
+When they arrived at the camp, they found a nice spot to set up their tent. They helped Mom and Dad to put up the tent and make their beds. They had sleeping bags and pillows and blankets. They zipped their sleeping bags and made them cozy.
+
+"Are you hungry, kids?" Mom asked.
+
+"Yes, Mom, we are. What are we having for dinner?" Lily asked.
+
+"We are having hot dogs and beans and salad. And for dessert, we have marshmallows and chocolate. Does that sound delicious?" Mom asked.
+
+"Yes, Mom, it does. It sounds very delicious. Can we help you cook?" Max asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. Lily, you can help me wash the salad. Max, you can help Dad make the fire." Mom said.
+
+They helped Mom and Dad cook the dinner. They smelled the hot dogs and the beans and the salad. They were very delicious. They ate them with big bites and smiles. They drank juice and water. They were very full.
+
+After dinner, they roasted marshmallows and chocolate over the fire. They made them gooey and sticky and sweet. They were very delicious. They ate them with big licks and giggles. They drank milk and tea. They were very happy.
+
+Then they brushed their teeth and washed their faces. They got ready for bed. They went inside the tent and zipped it. They crawled into their sleeping bags and hugged their teddy bear and flashlight. They said good night to Mom and Dad.
+
+"Good night, kids. We love you." Mom and Dad said.
+
+"Good night, Mom and Dad. We love you too." Lily and Max said.
+
+They closed their eyes and fell asleep. They dreamed of camp and fire and marshmallows and chocolate. They were very happy.
+Sara and Tom are brother and sister. They like to play with their toys, but sometimes they fight. One day, they both want to play with the same car. They pull and push and yell.
+
+"Give me the car! It is mine!" Sara says.
+
+"No, it is mine! I saw it first!" Tom says.
+
+They are so angry that they do not hear their mom calling them for lunch. They do not see their baby brother, Ben, crawling to the stairs. Ben is curious and wants to see what is up there. He puts his hand on the first step and tries to climb.
+
+Mom sees Ben and runs to him. She picks him up and hugs him. She is scared and mad.
+
+"Sara! Tom! Come here now!" she says. "You were so busy fighting that you did not watch your brother. He could have fallen and hurt himself. How could you be so careless?"
+
+Sara and Tom feel ashamed. They drop the car and go to mom. They say they are sorry and hug Ben. They see that he is sweet and cute and they love him.
+
+Mom says, "I am glad you are sorry, but you need to learn to share and be kind. Fighting is not good. It only makes you and others unhappy. Next time, you can take turns or play together. Do you understand?"
+
+Sara and Tom nod. They understand. They promise to be better. They go to the kitchen and eat their lunch. They share the car and play with Ben. They are happy and mom is happy too.
+Tim and Mia are best friends. They like to play in the park with their toys. One day, they find a long stick. It looks like a magic wand. They pretend to cast spells on the trees and the birds.
+
+"Look, I can make the leaves fall!" Tim says, waving the stick.
+
+"I can make the flowers grow!" Mia says, pointing the stick.
+
+They have a lot of fun with the stick. But they do not see the sign that says "Do not touch". The stick is not a toy. It is part of a big machine that makes the water run in the park.
+
+The machine is very old and broken. It needs a new stick. The park man is looking for the stick. He is in a hurry. He has an emergency. If he does not fix the machine soon, the water will stop and the park will dry up.
+
+He sees Tim and Mia with the stick. He runs after them. He shouts, "Hey, kids, give me that stick! It is not a toy! It is very important!"
+
+Tim and Mia are scared. They think the park man is angry. They do not want to give him the stick. They run away. They hide behind a big rock. They whisper to each other.
+
+"What do we do?" Tim whispers.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe he will go away." Mia whispers.
+
+They wait for a long time. They hear the park man looking for them. They hear him say, "Please, kids, I need that stick. It is an emergency. The water will stop and the park will die. Please, help me."
+
+Tim and Mia feel sorry for the park man. They realize he is not angry. He is worried. They decide to give him the stick. They come out from behind the rock. They wave the stick.
+
+"Here, mister, you can have the stick. We are sorry. We did not know it was important." Tim says.
+
+"Thank you, kids. You are very kind. You saved the park. You are heroes." The park man says.
+
+He takes the stick and runs to the machine. He fixes it. The water starts to run again. The park is happy. Tim and Mia are happy. They hug the park man. He gives them a smile and a candy. They say goodbye and go home. They are proud of themselves. They learned a lesson. They will not touch things that are not toys. They will listen to signs. They will help people who have an emergency. They are best friends. The end.
+Lila was a little girl who loved to play in the park. She liked to run, jump, swing and slide. She also liked to look at the trees and the flowers. She saw many colors and shapes. She felt happy and healthy.
+
+One day, she saw a big tree with many leaves. The leaves were green and shiny. They moved in the wind. Lila wanted to touch them. She ran to the tree and reached for a leaf. But the leaf was too high. She jumped and jumped, but she could not get it.
+
+She saw a boy near the tree. He was taller than her. He had a stick in his hand. He used the stick to poke the leaf. The leaf fell to the ground. He picked it up and smiled. He saw Lila and said, "Do you want this leaf?"
+
+Lila nodded. She wanted the leaf very much. She thought it was pretty and soft. She reached for the leaf. But the boy did not give it to her. He said, "No, this is my leaf. I got it with my stick. You can't have it. Go away."
+
+Lila felt sad and angry. She wanted to cry. She said, "That is not nice. You should share. The leaf is from the tree. The tree is for everyone. You are mean and selfish."
+
+The boy did not listen. He said, "I don't care. This is my leaf. Go away or I will hit you with my stick." He waved his stick at Lila. Lila was scared. She ran away from the boy.
+
+She saw a girl near the swings. She was smaller than her. She had a bow in her hair. She used the bow to tie a leaf to her swing. The leaf was yellow and dry. It had holes and spots. Lila thought it was ugly and old.
+
+She saw Lila and said, "Hi, do you want to play with me?" She smiled and pointed to her swing. She said, "Look, I have a leaf on my swing. It makes it more fun. Do you want to try?"
+
+Lila nodded. She wanted to play with the girl. She thought she was friendly and kind. She walked to the swing. She saw the leaf. She said, "Your leaf is not very pretty. It is yellow and dry. It has holes and spots. Why do you like it?"
+
+The girl said, "I know it is not very pretty. But it is special to me. I found it on the ground. It was the last leaf on the tree. The tree gave it to me as a gift. It is a sign of change and hope. I like it because it is different and brave."
+
+Lila was surprised. She looked at the leaf again. She saw it in a new way. She said, "You are right. Your leaf is special. It is different and brave. It is a sign of change and hope. I like it too. Can I play with you?"
+
+The girl said, "Of course. You can play with me. You can also have my leaf. I will share it with you. You are nice and generous." She gave the leaf to Lila. Lila took the leaf and thanked the girl. She tied the leaf to her hair with the bow. She said, "Look, now we both have a leaf. We are friends."
+
+They played on the swing. They laughed and sang. They felt happy and healthy.
+
+The moral of the story is: You should not be mean and selfish. You should share and be kind. You should not judge by appearance. You should appreciate the value of difference. You should make friends and have fun.
+Anna liked to help her mom in the garden. They grew many flowers and herbs that smelled good. Mom used some herbs to cook and some to sell at the market. Anna wanted to sell herbs too, but mom said she was too little.
+
+One day, Anna saw a big basket of herbs on the table. Mom was busy in the kitchen. Anna thought, "I can sell these herbs by myself. I can be a big girl." She took the basket and went outside. She saw some people walking by. She called out, "Herbs for sale! Herbs for sale!"
+
+Some people stopped and looked at Anna's basket. They smiled and asked, "How much are your herbs, little girl?" Anna did not know how much to say. She said, "One dollar for one herb." The people laughed and said, "That's too much, little girl. Your herbs are very small and dry. We can buy bigger and fresher herbs at the market for less money."
+
+Anna felt sad and angry. She did not want to lower her price. She was stubborn. She said, "No, one dollar for one herb. Take it or leave it." The people shook their heads and walked away. Anna was left alone with her basket. She did not sell any herbs.
+
+Mom came out and saw Anna. She asked, "What are you doing, Anna? Why did you take the basket of herbs?" Anna said, "I wanted to sell herbs, mom. But no one wanted to buy them. They said they were too small and dry and expensive." Mom hugged Anna and said, "I'm sorry, Anna. Those herbs were not for selling. They were for composting. They were old and wilted. I have fresh and beautiful herbs in the garden for selling. Do you want to help me pick them and take them to the market?" Anna nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I'm sorry I was stubborn. I want to learn from you how to sell herbs." Mom smiled and said, "That's okay, Anna. I love you. Come on, let's go to the garden." They went to the garden and picked some herbs. They put them in a new basket and went to the market. They sold many herbs and made some money. Anna was happy and proud. She learned a lot from her mom.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pond with water and ducks. Tom wants to feed the ducks. He has some bread in his bag. Anna wants to see the ducks too. She is nosy. She follows Tom to the pond.
+
+Tom takes out some bread and throws it to the ducks. The ducks come closer and quack. Anna thinks they are cute. She wants to touch them. She reaches out her hand to a duck. The duck does not like it. It bites Anna's finger. Anna cries. It hurts.
+
+Tom hears Anna cry. He runs to her. He sees the duck bite her finger. He is angry. He shouts at the duck. He throws more bread at it. He wants it to go away. He helps Anna. He wraps her finger with his scarf. He says sorry. He says it is his fault. He should not have fed the ducks.
+
+Anna stops crying. She looks at Tom. He is sad. She feels sorry for him. She says it is not his fault. She says she was nosy. She should not have touched the duck. She says she forgives him. She says they are still friends.
+
+Tom smiles. He says thank you. He says he forgives her too. He says they are still friends. They hug. They go back to the park. They play with other toys. They forget about the duck. They are happy.
+Sara was a big girl who liked to do things by herself. She wanted to be independent and not need help from her mom or dad. One day, she decided to bathe herself without asking anyone. She filled the tub with water and soap and got in. She washed her hair, her face, her arms, her legs, and her body. She felt very proud and happy.
+
+But she forgot one thing. She did not know how to turn off the water. The water kept coming out of the faucet and the tub got fuller and fuller. Soon, the water started to spill over the edge and onto the floor. Sara got scared and started to cry. She did not know what to do.
+
+She called for her mom. "Mom, mom, help me! The water is too much!"
+
+Her mom heard her and ran to the bathroom. She saw the mess and quickly turned off the water. She drained the tub and dried Sara with a towel. She hugged her and said, "Sara, I'm glad you're okay. But you should not bathe yourself without asking me or dad. You could get hurt or make a big problem. You are a big girl, but you still need our help sometimes. It's okay to ask for help when you need it. That's how you learn and grow."
+
+Sara nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to be independent, but I did not know how to do everything. Next time, I will ask you or dad to help me. Thank you for saving me."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "You're welcome, Sara. I love you. And I'm proud of you for trying to be independent. But remember, being independent does not mean doing everything by yourself. It means doing things that you can do and asking for help when you can't. That's how you become a smart and strong big girl."
+
+Sara hugged her mom and said, "I love you too, mom. And I want to be a smart and strong big girl. Can you help me clean the floor?"
+
+Her mom said, "Of course, Sara. Let's do it together."
+Lila and Ben are playing with their toy cars on the floor. They have a big loop of track that they can make their cars go around and around. Lila likes the red car and Ben likes the blue car.
+
+"Look, Lila, I can make my car go very fast on the loop!" Ben says. He pushes his car hard and it zooms around the loop.
+
+"Wow, Ben, that's cool!" Lila says. She tries to make her car go fast too, but it falls off the loop. "Oh no, my car is broken!" she cries.
+
+Ben stops his car and goes to help Lila. He picks up her car and looks at it. "It's not broken, Lila, it just needs a new wheel. See, this one is old and loose." He shows her the wheel that is wobbly.
+
+"Can we fix it, Ben?" Lila asks.
+
+"Sure, we can. We just need to find a new wheel. Maybe we can use one from the old train set in the closet." Ben says.
+
+"Okay, let's go!" Lila says. They get up and run to the closet. They open the door and see the old train set on the shelf. They take it down and look for a wheel that fits Lila's car.
+
+"Here, Lila, this one looks good. It's the same size and color as your car's wheel." Ben says. He takes the wheel off the train and puts it on Lila's car. He twists it until it is tight.
+
+"Thank you, Ben, you are very smart!" Lila says. She hugs him and takes her car. She puts it on the loop and pushes it. It goes around and around without falling off.
+
+"Yay, Lila, your car is fixed!" Ben says. He puts his car on the loop too and they play together. They laugh and have fun with their cars on the loop. They are happy. They close the closet door and forget about the old train set.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the garden. They have a big bucket of water and some cups. They like to make water cakes and pretend to eat them.
+
+"Look, I made a water cake with flowers on top!" Anna says, showing Ben her cup.
+
+"That's nice, Anna. Can I have a bite?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, here you go!" Anna says, and gives Ben her cup.
+
+Ben pretends to eat the water cake and makes a yummy sound. He gives the cup back to Anna.
+
+"Thank you, Anna. That was delicious. Do you want to try my water cake?" Ben says, holding his cup.
+
+"Yes, please!" Anna says, and reaches for Ben's cup.
+
+But before she can take it, a big boy comes and snatches the cup from Ben's hand. He pours the water on Anna's head and laughs.
+
+"Ha ha, that's not a water cake, that's just water! You are silly!" the big boy says. He is very rude.
+
+Anna feels wet and cold. She starts to cry. Ben feels angry and sad. He tries to get the cup back from the big boy.
+
+"Hey, give that back! That's not nice! That's our water!" Ben says.
+
+But the big boy is bigger and stronger. He pushes Ben away and runs off with the cup.
+
+Anna and Ben are very upset. They hug each other and go to find their mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, a big boy was rude to us! He took our water and poured it on Anna!" Ben says.
+
+"Oh, no, that's awful! I'm so sorry, my darlings. Come here, let me dry you off and give you a hug. You are very brave and kind. I'm proud of you." Mom says.
+
+She wraps them in a towel and cuddles them. She gives them some cookies and milk. She tells them a funny story to make them laugh.
+
+Anna and Ben feel better. They still like to make water cakes, but they don't play with rude boys. They play with nice friends who share and care.
+Lily and Ben are playing with blocks in the living room. They are building a big tower with different colors. Lily likes the blue blocks and Ben likes the red blocks. They are having fun and sharing the blocks.
+
+But then, a noisy dog comes in from the garden. He sees the tower and runs towards it. He wants to play too. He jumps and barks and knocks down the tower. The blocks fall everywhere. Lily and Ben are shocked and angry.
+
+"Bad dog! Go away!" Ben shouts at the dog. He tries to push him with his hand, but the dog is too big and strong. He licks Ben's face and wags his tail. He thinks Ben is playing with him.
+
+"No, no, no!" Lily cries. She is sad and scared. She loves her tower and now it is gone. She picks up a blue block and hugs it. She runs to her mom, who is in the kitchen. She shows her the block and the mess.
+
+"Mama, mama, look! The dog broke our tower! He is so noisy and naughty!" Lily says, sobbing.
+
+"Oh, honey, I'm sorry. The dog didn't mean to. He just wanted to join you. He is a friendly dog, but he doesn't know how to play gently. Come here, let me give you a hug and a kiss. You can build another tower later, okay?" Mom says, holding Lily's hand and wiping her tears.
+
+Lily nods and sniffs. She feels a little better. She looks at Ben, who is still trying to chase the dog away. She thinks maybe they can be friends with the dog, if he learns to be more careful. She smiles and says, "Okay, mama. Thank you. Can we give the dog a treat? Maybe he will be quiet then."
+Tim and Jen were playing pirates in the backyard. They had a big barrel that they used as a ship. They pretended to sail on the sea and fight other pirates. They had wooden swords and hats and scarves.
+
+"Ahoy, matey!" Tim shouted. "We are the best pirates ever! No one can stop us!"
+
+"Arrr, you are right, Tim!" Jen agreed. "We are brave and strong and proud!"
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. It was their big brother, Tom. He was angry because they had taken his barrel. He ran towards them with a water gun.
+
+"Hey, you little rats!" Tom yelled. "Give me back my barrel! It's mine!"
+
+Tim and Jen were scared. They tried to run away, but Tom was faster. He caught them and sprayed them with water. They were wet and cold and sad.
+
+"Please, Tom, don't hurt us!" Tim begged. "We were just playing!"
+
+"Too bad!" Tom said. "You have to surrender! You are not pirates, you are losers!"
+
+He took their swords and hats and scarves and threw them away. He pushed them out of the barrel and climbed inside. He laughed and said, "Now I am the captain of this ship! And you are my prisoners!"
+
+Tim and Jen cried. They wished they had never played pirates. They wished they had a different brother. They wished they had a happy ending.
+Sam liked to spin. He spun on the chair, he spun on the swing, he spun on the floor. He spun so fast that he felt dizzy and happy. He wanted to spin more and more.
+
+One day, his mom took him to a lab. She said it was a place where people learned new things. Sam saw many big machines and wires and screens. He wondered what they did. He saw a big round thing with a door. He asked his mom what it was.
+
+"That's a centrifuge, Sam. It spins very fast to separate things. But you can't go inside, it's not for kids. It's very dangerous. You have to stay with me, okay?" his mom said.
+
+Sam nodded, but he was curious. He wanted to see how fast it spun. He waited until his mom was busy talking to another person. He sneaked to the door and opened it. He climbed inside and closed it. He saw a big red button. He pushed it.
+
+The centrifuge started to spin. Sam felt a big force pushing him to the wall. He felt very uncomfortable. He wanted to stop, but he didn't know how. He screamed for his mom.
+
+His mom heard him and ran to the centrifuge. She saw him inside and panicked. She pushed another button to stop it. She opened the door and hugged him.
+
+"Sam, are you okay? What were you thinking? You could have been hurt! You have to listen to me, Sam. You can't play with things you don't understand. Promise me you won't do that again, okay?" she said.
+
+Sam felt sorry and scared. He nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I promise. I don't want to spin anymore."
+Sara and Ben like to play with their toy kitchen. They have a big jug that they fill with water and pretend to make soup. They also have a small scale that they use to weigh things.
+
+One day, they decide to weigh the jug to see how heavy it is. They put it on the scale and watch the needle move. Sara says, "The jug is very heavy. It makes the needle go all the way to the end." Ben says, "Yes, it is. But I can lift it. Watch me." He tries to pick up the jug, but it is too heavy for him. He drops it on the floor and the water spills everywhere.
+
+Sara and Ben are scared. They think their mom will be mad at them for making a mess. They look for a towel to clean up the water, but they can't find one. They start to cry.
+
+Their mom hears them crying and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the water on the floor and the jug and the scale. She is not mad at them. She says, "It's okay, Sara and Ben. You were just playing and learning. Accidents happen sometimes. Don't cry. I will help you clean up."
+
+She gives them a big hug and a towel. She helps them wipe the water and put the jug and the scale back in their toy kitchen. She says, "You are very good children. You are curious and smart and dependable. You always tell me the truth and try to fix your mistakes. I love you very much."
+
+Sara and Ben smile and say, "We love you too, mom. Thank you for helping us. You are the best mom ever." They hug her back and feel happy. They decide to play something else. They think the jug is too heavy for them. Maybe they will weigh something lighter next time.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big purple ball in the grass. It is shiny and round.
+
+"Wow, look at that ball!" Lily says. "It is so pretty and purple. Can we play with it?"
+
+"Sure, let's go and get it!" Ben says. They run to the ball and pick it up. It is light and soft.
+
+They throw the ball to each other and laugh. They have fun with the purple ball. But then, they hear a voice.
+
+"Hey, that's my ball!" The voice says. "Give it back to me!"
+
+They look around and see a boy. He is wearing a purple shirt and a purple hat. He has purple eyes and purple hair. He is not normal. He is different.
+
+"Who are you?" Lily asks. "Why are you all purple?"
+
+"I am Purp. I come from Planet Purple. I lost my ball when I landed here. It is my favorite toy. Please give it back to me." Purp says.
+
+Lily and Ben are surprised. They have never seen anyone like Purp before. They are curious and scared.
+
+"Are you nice?" Ben asks. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+Purp smiles. He is nice. He wants to make friends.
+
+"Yes, I am nice. I want to play with you. Can we share the ball?" Purp asks.
+
+Lily and Ben think for a moment. They like the ball, but they also want to be kind. They decide to share the ball with Purp.
+
+"Okay, we can share the ball. But you have to tell us more about Planet Purple. It sounds very interesting." Lily says.
+
+"Okay, I will tell you. Come with me. I will show you my spaceship. It is also purple." Purp says.
+
+Lily and Ben agree. They follow Purp to his spaceship. They are excited and happy. They have a new friend. And he is purple.
+Lila was a big sister. She had a baby brother, Ben. Ben was an infant. He was very small and cute. Lila loved Ben very much.
+
+One day, Lila wanted to help Mommy feed Ben. Mommy gave Lila a bottle of milk. Lila held the bottle and walked to Ben's crib. She saw Ben sleeping. He looked beautiful.
+
+Lila said, "Wake up, Ben. I have milk for you." She tried to put the bottle in Ben's mouth. But Ben did not open his mouth. He was still sleeping.
+
+Lila pushed the bottle harder. She wanted Ben to drink the milk. But the bottle was too big for Ben's mouth. The milk spilled out. It poured on Ben's face and clothes. It poured on the crib and the floor.
+
+Ben woke up. He felt wet and cold. He started to cry. He cried very loud. Mommy heard Ben crying. She ran to the crib. She saw the mess. She saw Lila holding the bottle.
+
+Mommy said, "Lila, what did you do? You poured milk on Ben. You made him cry. You made a big mess. You should not feed Ben by yourself. He is too little. He needs Mommy's help."
+
+Lila felt sorry. She did not mean to hurt Ben. She wanted to be a good sister. She said, "I'm sorry, Mommy. I'm sorry, Ben. I wanted to feed Ben. I wanted to help you. I love Ben."
+
+Mommy hugged Lila. She said, "I know you love Ben. And Ben loves you. But you have to be careful with Ben. He is an infant. He is not like you. He cannot drink from a bottle like you. He needs a smaller bottle. And he needs Mommy to hold him and feed him gently. You can help Mommy in other ways. You can sing to Ben, or read to him, or play with him. But you have to wait until he is awake and happy. And you have to ask Mommy first. OK?"
+
+Lila nodded. She said, "OK, Mommy. I will be careful with Ben. I will ask you first. I will be a good sister."
+
+Mommy smiled. She said, "You are a good sister, Lila. And you are a beautiful girl. I love you. And Ben loves you too."
+
+She cleaned Ben and changed his clothes. She fed him with a smaller bottle. She put him back in his crib. She kissed him and Lila. She said, "Now, let's go and clean the floor. And then we can have some cookies and milk. How does that sound?"
+
+Lila smiled. She said, "That sounds good, Mommy. Thank you, Mommy."
+
+She helped Mommy clean the floor. She learned a lesson. She learned to be careful with Ben. She learned to ask Mommy for help. She learned to be a good sister.
+Tom and Anna are twins. They like to help Mom and Dad with chores. Today, they want to polish the big table in the living room. Mom gives them a cloth and a bottle of polish.
+
+"Be careful with the bottle, it is heavy," Mom says. "And don't spill the polish on the floor or the rug."
+
+Tom and Anna nod. They lift the bottle together and put it on the table. Then they take turns to pour some polish on the cloth and rub it on the wood. The table shines and smells nice.
+
+"Wow, it looks so pretty!" Anna says.
+
+"Yes, it does!" Tom agrees.
+
+They are almost done, but there is one spot they have not polished yet. It is in the middle of the table, where a big vase of flowers stands.
+
+"Can you move the vase, Tom?" Anna asks.
+
+"OK, I'll try," Tom says.
+
+He reaches for the vase, but it is too heavy for him. He loses his balance and falls on the table. The vase tips over and crashes on the floor. Water and flowers spill everywhere.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom and Anna cry.
+
+Mom hears the noise and runs to the living room. She sees the mess and the broken vase.
+
+"What happened?" Mom asks.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom," Tom and Anna say. "We wanted to polish the table, but the vase was too heavy and we dropped it."
+
+Mom sighs. She is not happy, but she is not angry either. She knows they did not mean to break the vase.
+
+"It's OK, my loves," Mom says. "I know you were trying to help. But next time, please ask me before you move something heavy. Now let's clean up this mess together."
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, Tom has a new toy. It is a big truck. It can make loud noises and move fast.
+
+"Look at my new toy!" Tom says to Lily. "It is a big truck. Do you want to play with it?"
+
+Lily nods. She likes trucks too. She takes the toy from Tom and pushes it on the floor. The truck makes loud noises and moves fast. Lily smiles.
+
+"Wow, this is a fun toy!" Lily says to Tom. "Thank you for sharing it with me."
+
+Tom smiles too. He is proud of his new toy. He is happy that Lily likes it. He takes the toy back and pushes it on the floor. The truck makes loud noises and moves fast. Tom and Lily laugh.
+
+They play with the toy for a long time. They have fun. They are good friends.
+Sara was very happy. She was going to visit her grandma with her mom and dad. She had a new backpack that was pink and had a butterfly on it. She wanted to pack her toys and books in it.
+
+She went to her room and opened her toy box. She saw her teddy bear, her doll, her ball, and her puzzle. She also saw her favorite book, the one with the big pictures and the funny sounds. She tried to put them all in her backpack, but they did not fit. She pushed and pushed, but the backpack was too small.
+
+She started to cry. She did not want to leave any of her toys or her book behind. She wanted to show them to her grandma and play with them there.
+
+Her mom heard her cry and came to her room. She saw Sara sitting on the floor with her backpack and her toys.
+
+"What's wrong, Sara?" she asked.
+
+"My backpack is too small, Mommy. I can't pack all my things. I want to take them all to grandma's house," Sara said.
+
+Her mom hugged her and smiled. "Don't worry, Sara. You don't need to pack all your things. You can choose one toy and one book to take with you. Grandma has many toys and books at her house, too. You can play with them there. And you can always come back and play with your things here."
+
+Sara thought for a moment. She looked at her toys and her book. She decided to take her teddy bear and her book. She put them in her backpack and zipped it up. She felt better.
+
+"Thank you, Mommy. I'm ready to go now," she said.
+
+Her mom took her hand and they went to the car. Sara put her backpack on her lap and hugged her teddy bear. She was excited to see her grandma and to show her her new backpack with the butterfly on it. She knew she would have fun.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play in the forest. They liked to look for berries that were sweet and juicy. One day, they saw a big bush with many red berries. They ran to the bush and started to pick the berries.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a big one!" Ben said, holding a berry in his hand.
+
+"Wow, Ben, that's a nice berry!" Lily said. "Can I have one too?"
+
+"Sure, Lily, here you go!" Ben said, giving her a berry. They ate the berries and smiled.
+
+But then, they heard a loud roar. It was a bear who also liked the berries. The bear saw Lily and Ben and started to run towards them. Lily and Ben were scared and dropped their berries.
+
+"Run, Lily, run!" Ben said.
+
+"Run, Ben, run!" Lily said.
+
+They ran away from the bush and the bear. They ran until they reached their home. They were safe and happy.
+
+They hugged each other and said, "We succeeded! We escaped from the bear!"
+
+They told their parents and their friends what happened. Their friends were amazed and proud of them. Lily and Ben became very popular. They were brave and smart. They still liked to play in the forest, but they never went near the berry bush again. They learned to be careful and share. They were happy and had fun.
+Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play together. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big fountain with water. They run to the fountain and splash in the water.
+
+"Look, Ben, the water is so shiny and cold!" Lily says.
+
+"Yes, and it makes a nice sound. Splash, splash, splash!" Ben says.
+
+They laugh and have fun. They are very noisy. Their moms watch them and smile.
+
+After a while, they get thirsty. They go to their moms and ask for a drink.
+
+"Mom, can I have a drink, please?" Lily says.
+
+"Me too, mom, I want a drink!" Ben says.
+
+Their moms give them each a bottle of juice. They drink the juice and say, "Ahh, this is good!"
+
+Then they hear some people talking near the fountain. They sound different from Ben and Lily. They use different words. Ben and Lily do not understand them.
+
+"Mom, what are they saying?" Ben asks.
+
+"They are speaking a different language, Ben. A language is a way of talking that some people use. There are many languages in the world," Ben's mom says.
+
+"Oh, I see. Do you know their language, mom?" Ben asks.
+
+"No, I don't, Ben. But maybe we can learn some words from them. Do you want to try?" Ben's mom says.
+
+"Yes, mom, that sounds fun!" Ben says.
+
+"Me too, mom, I want to learn!" Lily says.
+
+Their moms take them to the people and say hello. The people smile and say hello back. They tell them their names and where they are from. They teach them some words in their language. Ben and Lily repeat the words and try to remember them. They are very curious and happy. They make new friends. They are not noisy anymore. They are learning.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and make friends with them. They saw a big bug with many legs and a shiny shell. It was a beetle.
+
+"Wow, look at this bug!" Lily said. "It is incredible. It is so big and pretty."
+
+"Can I see it?" Ben asked. He came closer to the beetle. He wanted to touch it.
+
+But the beetle did not like that. It felt scared and angry. It made a loud noise and tried to bite Ben. Ben jumped back and cried.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! The bug hurt me!" Ben said. He was sad and mad. He did not like the bug anymore.
+
+Lily felt sorry for Ben. She also felt sorry for the bug. She knew the bug was only trying to protect itself. She had an idea.
+
+"Ben, don't be mad at the bug. It is just scared of us. Maybe we can be nice to it and make it feel safe. Then we can all be friends," Lily said.
+
+She picked a flower and offered it to the beetle. The beetle sniffed the flower and calmed down. It stopped making noise and biting. It crawled on Lily's hand and looked at her with its big eyes.
+
+"See, the bug likes the flower. It likes you too, Lily. You are very kind," Ben said. He felt better. He also picked a flower and gave it to the beetle. The beetle took the flower and moved to Ben's hand. It looked at him with its big eyes too.
+
+"See, the bug likes you too, Ben. You are very brave," Lily said. She smiled. Ben smiled too. They both petted the bug gently.
+
+The bug felt happy and safe. It liked Lily and Ben. It liked the flowers. It decided to stay with them and be their friend.
+
+Lily and Ben were happy too. They had found a new friend. They had learned to be kind and brave. They had learned to unite with the bug. They played together in the garden until it was time to go home.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play games. Sometimes they play nice, sometimes they play mean. One day, they play a game with prints.
+
+They find a big book with many prints of animals. They see prints of cats, dogs, birds, and more. They like the prints. They want to make their own prints.
+
+They get some paper and paint. They dip their hands and feet in the paint. They make prints on the paper. They make prints of cats, dogs, birds, and more. They have fun.
+
+But then they start to compare their prints. They want to see who has the best prints. They become competitive. They say things like:
+
+"My cat print is better than your cat print!"
+
+"No, my dog print is bigger than your dog print!"
+
+"My bird print has more colors than your bird print!"
+
+They argue and fight. They do not play nice. They make a mess.
+
+Mom comes and sees the mess. She is not happy. She says:
+
+"Ben and Lily, what are you doing? Why are you fighting? Why are you making a mess?"
+
+Ben and Lily feel bad. They say:
+
+"Sorry, Mom. We were playing a game with prints. But we became competitive. We wanted to have the best prints."
+
+Mom says:
+
+"Playing with prints is fun. But being competitive is not fun. You should not fight over your prints. You should share and appreciate your prints. You should play nice."
+
+Ben and Lily nod. They say:
+
+"OK, Mom. We will play nice. We will share and appreciate our prints. We will not be competitive."
+
+Mom smiles. She says:
+
+"That's good. Now, let's clean up the mess. And then we can look at your prints together. And maybe we can follow some prints in the garden. Maybe we can find some real animals."
+
+Ben and Lily smile. They say:
+
+"OK, Mom. That sounds fun. We like to follow prints. We like to find animals. We like to play with you."
+
+They hug Mom. They clean up the mess. They look at their prints together. They follow some prints in the garden. They find some real animals. They play nice. They have fun.
+Tom and Lily were bored. It was a dull day and they had nothing to do. They looked out of the window and saw gray clouds and rain. They wished they could go outside and play.
+
+"Let's play a game," Tom said. "I know a fun game. It's called guess the ghost."
+
+"What's that?" Lily asked.
+
+"It's easy. You close your eyes and I make a sound. You have to guess what kind of ghost I am. If you guess right, you win. If you guess wrong, I scare you."
+
+Lily nodded. She liked games. She closed her eyes and waited.
+
+Tom thought of a ghost sound. He opened his mouth and said, "Boo!"
+
+Lily laughed. "That's not a ghost. That's just you. You have to make a better sound."
+
+Tom frowned. He tried again. He said, "Ooooh!"
+
+Lily smiled. "That's a ghost. But what kind of ghost? A friendly ghost or a mean ghost?"
+
+Tom said, "A friendly ghost. Like Casper."
+
+Lily opened her eyes. "You're right. You're a friendly ghost. You win."
+
+Tom smiled. He was happy. He liked being a friendly ghost.
+
+They played guess the ghost for a while. They made different sounds and guessed different ghosts. They had fun. They forgot about the dull day and the rain. They were not bored anymore.
+Sara loved to play with her toy saxophone. She liked to make loud noises and pretend she was playing jazz. She learned some songs from her dad, who also played saxophone. He taught her how to blow and press the buttons.
+
+One day, Sara was playing with her toy saxophone in the living room, when her brother Ben came in. He was angry because he wanted to watch TV and Sara was making too much noise. He grabbed her toy saxophone and threw it on the floor. It broke into two pieces. Sara started to cry.
+
+"Ben, why did you do that?" Sara asked. "That was my favorite toy!"
+
+"I don't care. You were annoying me. Jazz is stupid anyway. You can't play it right." Ben said.
+
+Sara ran to her dad, who was in the kitchen. She showed him her broken toy saxophone and told him what Ben did. Her dad was upset. He hugged Sara and said he was sorry.
+
+"That was not nice of Ben. He should apologize to you. And he should help you repair your toy saxophone. Come on, let's see what we can do." Her dad said.
+
+He took Sara and her toy saxophone to his workshop. He found some glue and tape and fixed the toy saxophone. He tested it and it still made sounds. He gave it back to Sara and smiled.
+
+"There you go, sweetie. It's not perfect, but it still works. You can still play jazz with it. Do you want to play a song with me?" He asked.
+
+Sara nodded and smiled. She hugged her dad and thanked him. She picked up her toy saxophone and followed him to the living room. They played a song together. Sara felt happy again.
+
+Ben heard them from his room. He felt gloomy. He realized he was mean to Sara and he hurt her feelings. He decided to say sorry to her. He went to the living room and waited for them to finish their song.
+
+"Sara, I'm sorry I broke your toy saxophone. I was angry and I acted badly. Can you forgive me?" He asked.
+
+Sara looked at him. She saw he was sincere. She remembered her dad taught her to be kind and forgiving. She nodded and said yes.
+
+"Thank you, Sara. Can I play with you and dad? I want to learn jazz too." Ben said.
+
+Sara smiled and said yes. She handed him another toy saxophone that her dad had. They played another song together. They had fun. Their dad was proud of them.
+Lily was a little girl who loved to play with her dolls. She had many dolls of different colors and sizes, and she gave them all names and stories. She liked to pretend that they were her friends and that they had fun adventures together.
+
+One day, she brought her dolls to the park, where she saw some other children playing. She wanted to join them, but she felt shy. She hoped they would like her and her dolls. She walked over to them and said hello.
+
+"Hi, I'm Lily. Can I play with you?" she asked.
+
+The other children looked at her and her dolls. They saw that some of her dolls were old and torn, and some had missing eyes or hair. They laughed and pointed at them.
+
+"Your dolls are ugly and weird. They don't belong here. Go away!" one of them said.
+
+Lily felt sad and hurt. She hugged her dolls and ran away. She found a bench and sat down, crying. She wondered why the other children were so mean to her and her dolls. She thought they were beautiful and special.
+
+"Hey, don't cry. What's wrong?" a voice said.
+
+Lily looked up and saw a boy sitting next to her. He had a big smile and kind eyes. He was holding a toy car.
+
+"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bother you. The other children were mean to me and my dolls. They said they don't belong here. They said they are ugly and weird." Lily said.
+
+The boy shook his head. He looked at her dolls and smiled.
+
+"I think your dolls are lovely and interesting. They have their own stories and personalities. They belong with you, because you love them and take care of them. The other children were wrong to judge them by how they look. They should judge them by how they make you feel." he said.
+
+Lily smiled back. She felt happy and grateful. She wiped her tears and thanked the boy.
+
+"Thank you. You are very nice and wise. What is your name?" she asked.
+
+The boy said his name was Ben. He said he liked to play with cars and trains. He said he was troubled by his parents, who were always fighting and yelling. He said he came to the park to escape and have fun.
+
+Lily felt sorry for him. She said she was lucky to have a happy family, who loved her and her dolls. She said she wanted to share her happiness with him. She asked him if he wanted to play with her and her dolls.
+
+Ben nodded. He said he would love to play with her and her dolls. He said he wanted to be her friend.
+
+Lily and Ben played together for a long time. They had fun and laughed. They made up stories and adventures for their toys. They forgot about their troubles and the mean children. They felt happy and safe.
+
+They learned that they belonged with each other, because they were kind and respectful. They learned that they should not judge others by how they look, but by how they act. They learned that they could find happiness and friendship in unexpected places. They learned that they were not alone.
+Anna liked to play with her dolls in her room. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had long hair, a pink dress and a smile. Anna liked to brush Lily's hair and talk to her.
+
+One day, Anna heard a loud noise outside her window. She ran to see what it was. She saw a big truck with a crane. The truck was taking away the old tree in front of her house. Anna liked the old tree. It had green leaves, red flowers and a swing. Anna was sad and scared.
+
+She ran back to her room and hugged Lily. She said, "Lily, I don't like the noise. I don't like the truck. I don't like the crane. They are taking away our tree. Why are they doing that?"
+
+Lily did not answer. She was a doll. But Anna pretended that Lily said, "Don't worry, Anna. Maybe they are taking away the tree because it is sick or old. Maybe they will replace it with a new tree. A new tree that will grow and have leaves and flowers and a swing. Maybe the noise will stop soon. Maybe the truck and the crane will go away. Maybe everything will be okay."
+
+Anna felt a little better. She said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. I hope you are right. I hope they will replace the tree with a new one. I hope the noise will stop. I hope everything will be okay."
+
+She kissed Lily and put her on the bed. She looked out the window again. She saw the truck and the crane leaving. She saw a hole where the tree used to be. She saw a small plant in a pot. She wondered if that was the new tree. She wondered if it would grow and have leaves and flowers and a swing. She wondered if she would like it. She wondered if it was unknown or friendly. She decided to wait and see. She decided to give it a chance. She decided to be brave. She smiled and said, "Goodbye, old tree. Hello, new tree. I hope we can be friends."
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They saw a big bird with a long neck and black and white feathers. It was a swan. The swan had a nest with four eggs in it.
+
+"Look, mom, eggs!" Ben said, pointing to the nest.
+
+"Yes, those are the swan's eggs. She is waiting for them to hatch," mom said.
+
+"Can we examine them?" Anna asked.
+
+"No, we can't. We have to be very careful and not touch them. The swan might get angry and bite us. She is protecting her babies," mom said.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They watched the swan from a distance. They wondered how the babies would look like.
+
+The next week, they came back to the park. They saw the swan again, but this time, she had four little swans with her. They were fluffy and gray and followed their mom in the water.
+
+"Look, mom, babies!" Anna said, clapping her hands.
+
+"Yes, those are the swan's babies. They are called cygnets. Aren't they cute?" mom said.
+
+"Can we examine them?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, we can't. We have to be very quiet and not scare them. The swan is teaching them how to swim and find food," mom said.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They watched the swan and her babies from a distance. They smiled and waved at them.
+
+The next week, they came back to the park. It was dark and cloudy. They saw the swan and her babies again, but they looked different. They were white and shiny and had long necks like their mom.
+
+"Look, mom, white!" Anna said, pointing to the swans.
+
+"Yes, those are the swan's babies. They have grown up and changed their feathers. They are very beautiful," mom said.
+
+"Can we examine them?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, we can't. We have to be very respectful and not bother them. The swan is proud of her babies and might leave soon," mom said.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They watched the swan and her babies from a distance. They said goodbye and thanked them for letting them see them.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They had a bow and some arrows. They liked to pretend they were hunters. They shot the arrows at the trees and the flowers.
+
+"Look, I hit the big red flower!" Tom said.
+
+"Well, I hit the small yellow one!" Lily said.
+
+They were having fun, but they did not see that their arrows were disturbing someone. It was Mr. Fox, the neighbour. He was very tidy and he did not like his garden to be messy. He saw the arrows on his lawn and he was angry.
+
+"Hey, you kids, stop shooting arrows at my garden!" he shouted. "You are making a mess and you are hurting my plants!"
+
+Lily and Tom heard him and they were scared. They did not want to make Mr. Fox angry. They ran to their house and hid behind the door.
+
+"Sorry, Mr. Fox, we did not mean to disturb you!" they said.
+
+Mr. Fox picked up the arrows and threw them over the fence. He hoped they would not do it again. He went back to his garden and tried to make it tidy again. He wished the kids would play somewhere else.
+Tom likes to play with his trumpet. He blows hard and makes loud noises. He thinks he is a big band leader. He likes to wear a hat and a coat when he plays.
+
+One day, he sees a dirty trumpet in the trash. It is old and rusty and has a hole in it. Tom thinks it is a treasure. He takes it home and tries to play it. But it does not make any sound. It only makes a hiss.
+
+Tom is sad. He wants to play the dirty trumpet. He asks his mom for help. "Mom, can you fix my trumpet?" he says.
+
+Mom looks at the dirty trumpet. She shakes her head. "No, Tom, I can't fix it. It is too broken. And it is not yours. You should not take things from the trash. They are dirty and can make you sick."
+
+Tom feels sorry. He did not know he did a bad thing. He says, "I'm sorry, Mom. I just wanted to play. I like trumpets. Can I keep my other trumpet?"
+
+Mom smiles. She hugs Tom. "Yes, you can keep your other trumpet. It is yours and it is clean and it works. But you have to wash your hands and your mouth after you play with the dirty trumpet. And you have to throw it away. It is not good for you."
+
+Tom nods. He does what Mom says. He washes his hands and his mouth. He throws away the dirty trumpet. He plays with his other trumpet. He is happy. He still likes to make loud noises. He still thinks he is a big band leader. He still likes to wear a hat and a coat when he plays.
+Lily and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. Lily has a doll and Ben has a car. Lily likes to make her doll talk and Ben likes to make his car zoom.
+
+"Hello, I am Lily's doll. I am going to the park. Do you want to come with me?" Lily makes her doll say.
+
+"No, I am Ben's car. I am going to the garage. I have a cut on my wheel. It hurts." Ben makes his car say.
+
+Lily looks at Ben's car. She sees a small cut on the rubber. She thinks she can help.
+
+"Can I see your cut, Ben's car? Maybe I can fix it." Lily says.
+
+"No, you can't. It is my cut. Go away." Ben says.
+
+Lily is persistent. She wants to help Ben's car. She thinks of an idea.
+
+"I know. I can send you a band-aid. Then your cut will feel better." Lily says.
+
+She runs to the bathroom and gets a band-aid. She comes back and tries to stick it on Ben's car.
+
+"Stop it, Lily. You are making it worse. I don't want a band-aid. I want a new wheel." Ben says.
+
+He pushes Lily away. Lily falls down and starts to cry.
+
+Ben feels bad. He sees that Lily was trying to be nice. He thinks of an idea.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to hurt you. How about we share our toys? You can play with my car and I can play with your doll." Ben says.
+
+He gives Lily his car and takes her doll. Lily stops crying and smiles.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. That is very kind of you. I like your car. It is very fast." Lily says.
+
+They hug and start to play together. They are happy.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play outside with their dog, Spot. One day, they see a big mountain far away. They want to go there and see what is on top.
+
+"Can we go to the mountain, Mom?" Anna asks.
+
+"No, my loves, the mountain is too far and too high. It is not safe for you and Spot. You can play in the yard, where I can see you," Mom says.
+
+"But we want to see the mountain, Mom. Please, please, please," Ben begs.
+
+Mom shakes her head. "No, Ben, I said no. Do not repeat yourself. The mountain is not for you. Maybe when you are older, we can go together. Now, go and play with your toys and Spot."
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They do not want to play with their toys and Spot. They want to see the mountain. They look at each other and have an idea. They wait until Mom is busy in the kitchen. Then, they sneak out of the yard and run towards the mountain.
+
+They run and run and run. They do not see how far they are from home. They do not see how the sky is getting dark. They do not see how the mountain is getting bigger and scarier. They only see their dream of reaching the top.
+
+"Look, Anna, we are almost there," Ben says.
+
+"Yes, Ben, we are almost there," Anna repeats.
+
+They do not hear Mom calling their names. They do not hear Spot barking. They do not hear the thunder and the rain. They only hear their own voices.
+
+They do not know they are in danger. They do not know they are lost. They do not know they are not safe. They only know they want to see the mountain.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They had a big hose that could spray water. They liked to spray each other and laugh.
+
+"Spray me, spray me!" Lily shouted. She ran around the grass.
+
+"OK, OK!" Ben said. He aimed the hose at Lily and sprayed her. The water was cold and wet.
+
+"Ha ha, you got me!" Lily said. She felt the water on her chest and arms. She sprayed Ben back.
+
+They sprayed each other for a long time. They were having fun.
+
+Then they saw Mom coming out of the house. She had a pretty dress on. She looked happy.
+
+"Hi, kids, are you having fun?" Mom asked.
+
+"Yes, Mom, we are!" Lily and Ben said.
+
+They wanted to show Mom their hose. They ran to her and sprayed her.
+
+"Hey, hey, stop!" Mom said. She was surprised and wet. She laughed.
+
+"Oops, sorry, Mom!" Lily and Ben said. They hugged Mom.
+
+Mom hugged them back. She didn't mind. She loved her kids. They were pretty too.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to help their parents. One day, they saw a big truck full of fruit outside the market. The truck driver was busy and asked them to deliver some fruit to the shops nearby.
+
+Lily and Tom were happy to help. They took a basket each and filled it with fruit. They carried the baskets to the shops and gave the fruit to the shopkeepers. The shopkeepers thanked them and gave them some coins.
+
+Lily and Tom were proud of their work. They counted the coins and saw that they had enough to buy some candy. They ran to the candy shop and asked for the most impressive candy they had.
+
+The candy shop owner smiled and showed them a big jar of colorful gummy bears. Lily and Tom's eyes widened. They wanted the gummy bears very much. They gave the coins to the candy shop owner and took the jar.
+
+But as they were leaving, they saw a poor boy sitting on the sidewalk. He looked hungry and sad. He had no fruit, no candy, no nothing.
+
+Lily and Tom felt sorry for the boy. They looked at each other and then at the jar of gummy bears. They knew what they had to do. They went to the boy and gave him the jar of gummy bears. The boy's face lit up. He thanked them and hugged them.
+
+Lily and Tom felt happier than ever. They realized that sharing was more impressive than having. They learned that helping others was the best way to help themselves. They smiled and walked back to the market, holding hands.
+Lily and Ben were twins. They liked to play with their toys and books. They also liked to look at the calendar on the wall. The calendar had pictures of animals and flowers for each month.
+
+One day, Lily pointed at the calendar and said, "Look, Ben, this is June. June has a lion and a sunflower. What is next?"
+
+Ben looked at the calendar and said, "Next is July. July has a dolphin and a rose. And then August. August has a monkey and a daisy."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "And then September. September has a bear and a sunflower. And then October. October has a owl and a pumpkin."
+
+Ben smiled and said, "And then November. November has a turkey and a corn. And then December. December has a reindeer and a snowman."
+
+Lily clapped and said, "And then Christmas! Christmas is fun. We get presents and cookies and sing songs."
+
+Ben agreed and said, "Yes, Christmas is fun. But it is far away. We have to wait a long time."
+
+Lily frowned and said, "I don't like to wait. I want Christmas now."
+
+Ben hugged his sister and said, "Don't be sad, Lily. We can have fun every day. We can play with our toys and books. We can look at the calendar and learn new things. We can help Mommy and Daddy. We can be happy."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "You are right, Ben. We can have fun every day. And Christmas will come soon. We just have to be patient."
+
+Ben nodded and said, "Yes, we just have to be patient. And we can hold each other's hand. We are twins. We are always together."
+
+Lily and Ben held each other's hand and looked at the calendar. They saw the lion and the sunflower. They saw the dolphin and the rose. They saw the monkey and the daisy. They saw the bear and the sunflower. They saw the owl and the pumpkin. They saw the turkey and the corn. They saw the reindeer and the snowman. They saw the distant Christmas. And they were happy.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with their toys. But sometimes they fight over the toys. They do not want to share.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben decide to organize their toys. They make two piles: one for Anna and one for Ben. They say, "This is my pile. You cannot touch it."
+
+But Ben sees a red car in Anna's pile. He likes the red car. He wants to play with it. He takes the red car from Anna's pile.
+
+Anna sees Ben take the red car. She is angry. She says, "Hey, that is my car. Give it back!"
+
+Ben does not hear Anna. He is deaf. He cannot hear what she says. He only sees her mouth move. He thinks she is happy. He says, "Thank you for the car. It is nice."
+
+Anna is more angry. She says, "No, thank you. That is not nice. That is bad. You broke the law. The law is: you do not take from my pile."
+
+Ben still does not hear Anna. He does not know what the law is. He only sees her face. She looks sad. He thinks she is sorry. He says, "It is okay. Do not be sorry. You can have the car. I have other toys."
+
+Anna is confused. She does not understand Ben. She does not know he is deaf. She only hears his words. She thinks he is kind. She says, "Thank you for the car. You are nice. I have other toys, too. Do you want to share?"
+
+Ben nods. He sees Anna smile. He thinks she is happy. He says, "Yes, I want to share. Sharing is good. We can be friends."
+
+Anna and Ben hug. They are happy. They share their toys. They do not fight anymore. They organize their toys together. They follow the law. The law is: you do not take from your friend's pile. You ask first. You say please and thank you. You are nice.
+Sam and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the park. They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving fast. Sam had a red car and Ben had a blue car. They raced each other on the grass and the dirt.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, I'm the fastest!" Sam said.
+
+"No, I'm the fastest!" Ben said.
+
+They laughed and had fun. But then they saw a big dog running towards them. The dog was black and brown and had a loud bark. It looked angry and hungry. Sam and Ben were scared. They grabbed their toy cars and ran away.
+
+"Help, help, a dog is chasing us!" Sam shouted.
+
+They ran to the road and looked for a safe place. But the road was busy and noisy. There were many cars and trucks and buses. They honked and beeped and smoked. Sam and Ben did not know what to do. They felt lost and alone.
+
+"Where is mom? Where is dad?" Ben cried.
+
+They saw a cop on the other side of the road. The cop had a hat and a badge and a whistle. He looked kind and strong. Sam and Ben wanted to talk to him. They thought he could help them.
+
+"Look, Ben, a cop! Let's go to him!" Sam said.
+
+They waited for a gap in the traffic and ran across the road. They did not see the red light or the sign that said "stop". They did not hear the cop blowing his whistle or shouting "stop". They only saw the cop and hoped he would save them from the dog.
+
+But they did not make it to the cop. A car was coming fast and did not see them. It hit them with a loud crash. Sam and Ben flew in the air and landed on the ground. Their toy cars broke into pieces. They felt pain and blood. They screamed and cried.
+
+The cop ran to them and called for help. He checked their wounds and tried to calm them down. He was upset and angry. He wished they had listened to him and stopped. He wished they had been more careful and safe.
+
+"Why did you run across the road? Don't you know it's dangerous?" the cop asked.
+
+"We were scared of the dog. We wanted to talk to you. We're sorry," Sam and Ben said.
+
+The cop hugged them and said, "It's okay. I'm sorry too. You're brave and good. The dog is gone. Help is coming. You'll be okay."
+
+He hoped they would be okay. He hoped they would learn from their mistake. He hoped they would never turn away from safety again.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to find hidden things under the trees and in the bushes. They had a basket to put their treasures in.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a shiny rock!" Ben said, holding up a smooth pebble.
+
+"Wow, Ben, that's pretty! Let me see!" Lily said, reaching for the rock.
+
+Ben gave it to her and she put it in the basket. Then she saw something else in the grass. It was a square piece of paper with a picture on it.
+
+"Ben, look, I found a square!" Lily said, picking up the paper.
+
+"What is it?" Ben asked, curious.
+
+"It's a card. It has a cat on it. See?" Lily said, showing him the card.
+
+"Ooh, a cat! I like cats. Where did it come from?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe someone dropped it. Or maybe it was a gift for us!" Lily said, smiling.
+
+"Maybe. Can we keep it?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, we can keep it. It can provide us with fun. We can make a game with it. Do you want to play?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, I want to play. How do we play?" Ben asked.
+
+"We can take turns hiding the card and finding it. Or we can make a story with the cat. Or we can draw more cards and make a puzzle. What do you think?" Lily asked.
+
+"I think that sounds fun. Let's do all of them!" Ben said.
+
+"Okay, let's do it. You hide the card first and I'll find it. Then we'll switch. Ready, set, go!" Lily said.
+
+They ran off to play with their new square. They had a lot of fun and forgot about the time. They were happy to have each other and their hidden treasure.
+Jenny loved to number her toys. She had a lot of toys, and she liked to put them in order by size, color, or shape. She had a big box where she kept her toys, and she wrote the numbers on the box with a marker.
+
+One day, Jenny wanted to play tea with her toys. She took out her tea set, and her favorite toys: a bear, a doll, a car, and a ball. She gave each toy a cup of tea, and pretended to talk to them. She was having a lot of fun.
+
+But then, her brother Tom came into the room. He saw Jenny's toys, and he wanted to play with them. He grabbed the car and the ball, and ran away. Jenny was very angry. She shouted, "Tom, give me back my toys! They are mine! I numbered them!"
+
+Tom did not listen. He said, "No, they are mine! They are brilliant! I like them!" He threw the car and the ball on the floor, and they broke. Jenny was very sad. She cried, "Tom, you are bad! You broke my toys! They were my friends!"
+
+Tom felt sorry. He saw Jenny's tears, and he remembered that he loved his sister. He said, "I'm sorry, Jenny. I was wrong. I should not have taken your toys. I should not have broken them. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Jenny looked at Tom. She saw that he was sorry, and she remembered that she loved her brother. She said, "I forgive you, Tom. But you have to be nice to my toys. They are not just toys. They are my tea guests."
+
+Tom nodded. He said, "I understand, Jenny. Can I be your tea guest too?"
+
+Jenny smiled. She said, "Yes, Tom. You can be my tea guest. But you have to number your cup first."
+
+They hugged, and they played tea together. They numbered their cups, and they shared their tea. They were happy.
+Lila was a thin girl who loved to dance. She danced every day in her room, in the garden, and at school. She was happy when she danced, and she made others happy too.
+
+One night, she saw a star in the sky. It was bright and shiny, and it seemed to wink at her. She wished she could dance with the star. She thought the star would be her best friend.
+
+She asked her mom, "Can I dance with the star, mom?" Her mom smiled and said, "You can try, Lila. But the star is very far away. You have to work hard and be brave to reach it."
+
+Lila nodded and said, "I will, mom. I will work hard and be brave." She practiced her dance moves every day, and she learned new ones too. She also ate well and slept well, so she could grow strong and healthy.
+
+One day, she heard about a dance contest. The prize was a trip to the space station, where she could see the stars up close. She decided to join the contest. She worked harder and braver than ever. She danced with all her heart and soul.
+
+She won the contest. She was so happy and proud. She packed her bags and got ready for the trip. She said goodbye to her mom and dad, and thanked them for their love and support.
+
+She went to the space station, and saw the star she wished for. It was still bright and shiny, and it still seemed to wink at her. She danced with the star, and felt its warmth and light. She was happier than ever.
+
+She learned that dreams can come true, if you work hard and be brave. She also learned that dancing is a gift, that can make you and others happy. She thanked the star for being her friend, and promised to keep dancing.
+
+The end.
+Lily liked to go to class. She liked to learn new things and play with her friends. But sometimes, the teacher asked difficult questions. Lily did not know how to answer them. She felt shy and scared.
+
+One day, the teacher asked, "What is two plus two?" Lily knew the answer. She had learned it at home with her mom. But she did not raise her hand. She looked at her feet. She hoped the teacher would not call her name.
+
+But the teacher did. She said, "Lily, do you know the answer?" Lily felt her face turn red. She wanted to say four, but she could not. She felt a lump in her throat. She heard some kids giggle. She felt tears in her eyes.
+
+Then, she felt a hand on her shoulder. It was Ben, her best friend. He whispered in her ear, "You can do it, Lily. I know you know the answer. Just say it loud and clear. I am here for you."
+
+Lily looked at Ben. He smiled at her. He gave her a thumbs up. Lily felt a little better. She took a deep breath. She said, "Four." The teacher smiled and said, "That's right, Lily. Good job. You are very smart." The other kids clapped. Lily felt proud and happy. She thanked Ben for his help. He said, "You're welcome, Lily. You are my friend. Friends help each other." Lily hugged Ben. They went back to their seats. They enjoyed the rest of the class.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. They used pots and pans and spoons and bowls. They also used the mop as a big whisk.
+
+"Look, I can stir the soup with the mop!" Ben said. He swung the mop around and made a mess. Lily laughed.
+
+"Be careful, Ben! You might lose the mop!" she said.
+
+But Ben did not listen. He swung the mop harder and harder. Then, he let go of the mop by mistake. The mop flew out of the window and landed in the garden.
+
+"Oh no! I lost the mop!" Ben cried. He ran to the window and looked outside. He saw the mop lying on the grass. He also saw their dog, Spot, running towards the mop.
+
+"Spot, no! That's not a toy!" Ben shouted. He opened the window and tried to get the mop back. But Spot was faster. He grabbed the mop in his mouth and ran away.
+
+"Bad dog! Give me the mop!" Ben said. He followed Spot around the garden. He was very angry and sad.
+
+Lily watched from the window. She felt sorry for Ben. She also felt uncomfortable. She did not like to see the kitchen so dirty. She decided to help Ben.
+
+She took a broom and a bucket and went outside. She found Ben and Spot. Spot was still playing with the mop. Ben was still trying to get the mop.
+
+"Ben, stop!" Lily said. "The mop is ruined. Spot chewed it up. Look, it has holes and dirt and grass."
+
+Ben looked at the mop. He saw that Lily was right. The mop was not good anymore. He felt more sad.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I was silly. I should not have played with the mop. Now we have no mop and a dirty kitchen," he said.
+
+Lily hugged Ben. She was a good sister.
+
+"It's okay, Ben. We can clean the kitchen with the broom and the bucket. And we can ask Mom to buy a new mop. Come on, let's go inside and make it nice again," she said.
+
+Ben nodded. He was glad that Lily was not mad at him. He let go of the mop and followed Lily. Spot followed them too. He wagged his tail. He liked the mop. He thought it was a fun toy.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers. They saw a cricket on a leaf. It was green and shiny.
+
+"Hello, cricket!" Ben said. "Can you talk to us?"
+
+The cricket did not answer. It rubbed its wings together and made a chirping sound.
+
+"What is it saying?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know," Ben said. "Maybe it is singing a song."
+
+They listened to the cricket's song. It was loud and fast.
+
+"Wow, you are very strong, cricket!" Lily said. "You can make a lot of noise with your wings."
+
+The cricket did not answer. It jumped off the leaf and landed on another one.
+
+"Where are you going, cricket?" Ben asked.
+
+The cricket did not answer. It jumped again and again, until it was out of sight.
+
+"Bye, cricket!" Ben and Lily said. "Thank you for your song."
+
+They smiled and went to look for more bugs and flowers. They had fun in the garden.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They like to slide, swing and run. They see a big dog with a red ball. The dog is cool. He can catch the ball in his mouth.
+
+"Can we play with the dog?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"OK, but we have to ask the owner first. That is the law," Ben says.
+
+They run to the owner, a nice lady with a hat. They say hello and ask if they can play with the dog.
+
+"Sure, his name is Max. He loves to play, but be gentle with him," the lady says.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They throw the ball and Max runs after it. He brings it back and wags his tail. He likes Lily and Ben.
+
+But then, Lily realizes something. She has to go to the bathroom. She tells Ben and the lady.
+
+"OK, hurry up. The bathroom is over there," the lady says, pointing to a building.
+
+Lily runs to the bathroom. She hopes she can make it in time. She does not want to wet her pants. That would be bad. She opens the door and sees a sign. It says "Men". She is confused. She is not a man. She is a girl.
+
+She looks for another door. She sees one. It says "Women". She is happy. She opens the door and goes inside. She finds a toilet and does her business. She feels better.
+
+She washes her hands and goes back to the park. She sees Ben and Max waiting for her. They are still playing with the ball.
+
+"Did you make it?" Ben asks.
+
+"Yes, I did. But I realized something. The doors have different signs. One for men and one for women. Why is that?" Lily asks.
+
+"That is the law, too. Men and women have to use different bathrooms. I don't know why. Maybe because they are different," Ben says.
+
+"That is weird. We are not so different. We both like to play with Max. He is cool," Lily says.
+
+"Yes, he is. Come on, let's play some more," Ben says.
+
+They throw the ball and Max runs after it. He brings it back and wags his tail. He likes Lily and Ben. They are cool, too.
+Anna likes jazz. She likes to listen to jazz with her dad. They have a big jazz CD. They put it in the player and turn it on. They hear horns and drums and piano. They dance and clap and sing.
+
+But one day, Anna's dad is not home. He is at work. Anna is with her mom. Her mom does not like jazz. She likes rock. She has a small rock CD. She puts it in the player and turns it on. She hears guitars and drums and voices. She dances and jumps and shouts.
+
+Anna does not like rock. She thinks it is too loud and too fast. She wants to listen to jazz. She goes to the player and tries to take out the rock CD. But it is stuck. She pulls and pushes and twists. But it does not come out. She feels helpless.
+
+She starts to cry. She wants her dad. She wants jazz. She does not want rock. She does not like rock. She cries louder and louder.
+
+Her mom hears her cry. She comes to the player and sees Anna. She sees the rock CD and the jazz CD. She understands. She hugs Anna and says sorry. She says she likes rock, but she also likes jazz. She says Anna can like jazz, and she can like rock. She says they can listen to both. She says they can talk about what they like and what they do not like. She says they can share and learn and have fun.
+
+She takes out the rock CD and puts in the jazz CD. She turns it on. She hears horns and drums and piano. She dances and claps and sings with Anna. Anna stops crying. She smiles and hugs her mom. She says thank you. She says she likes jazz, and she likes her mom. She says they can talk and share and have fun. They do.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their toys. Tom had a car and Lily had a watch. They liked to pretend they were driving and telling the time. Lily said, "It is two o'clock. Time to go home." Tom said, "No, I want to play more. Let me see your watch." He grabbed Lily's watch and ran away.
+
+Lily was very sad and angry. She chased Tom and shouted, "Give me back my watch! It is mine!" Tom laughed and said, "No, it is mine now. You are too slow to catch me." He ran faster and faster, but he did not see a big rock on the ground. He tripped over the rock and fell down. His car and Lily's watch flew out of his hands and broke into pieces.
+
+Tom was very hurt and scared. He cried and cried. He had a big cut on his knee and his elbow. He wanted his mom and dad. He looked for Lily, but she was not there. She was so mad at him that she left him alone. She went to find her mom and dad and told them what Tom did.
+
+Tom felt very lonely and sorry. He wished he did not take Lily's watch. He wished he did not run away. He wished he had a friend to comfort him. But no one came to help him. He lay on the ground and sobbed. He was very embarrassed and sad. He learned a hard lesson. He should not be mean and greedy. He should be nice and share. But it was too late. He had no car, no watch, and no friend. He had a bad ending.
+Tom and Lily went to the toy shop with their mom. They saw many toys that they liked. They saw cars, dolls, puzzles, and books. But they liked the most a big lion that could roar. It was very soft and had a long mane.
+
+"Mom, can we have the lion?" Tom asked.
+
+"Let me see the price, Tom," mom said. She looked at the tag and frowned. "Oh, this lion is very expensive. It is a modern toy that needs batteries to roar. We cannot buy it today, maybe another time."
+
+Tom and Lily felt sad. They wanted the lion very much. They looked at the lion with big eyes. The lion looked at them and roared softly.
+
+"Please, mom, please," Lily said. "The lion likes us. He wants to come home with us. He is very friendly and cute."
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. "I know, Lily, but we have to save money for other things. How about we buy a smaller toy that does not need batteries? Maybe a ball, or a coloring book, or a hat?"
+
+Tom and Lily thought for a moment. They liked those toys too, but they liked the lion more. They looked at the lion again and said goodbye. The lion roared again and waved his paw.
+
+"Bye, lion, we will miss you," Tom and Lily said.
+
+"Maybe we will see you again, lion," mom said. "You are a very nice lion, but you are too pricey for us."
+
+They left the toy shop and went to the park. They played with their new toys and had fun. But they still thought of the lion and hoped he would find a good home.
+Tim and Mia are friends who like to play in the park. One day, they see a big cat with spots on its fur. It is a leopard that escaped from the zoo. The leopard is hungry and scared. It growls at Tim and Mia.
+
+"Run!" Tim says to Mia. "The leopard is bad. It will hurt us."
+
+But Mia does not run. She feels sorry for the leopard. She thinks it is lonely and sad. She is compassionate. She walks slowly to the leopard and says, "Don't be afraid. We are your friends. We will help you."
+
+The leopard is surprised. It stops growling and looks at Mia. It sees that she is kind and gentle. It lets Mia touch its fur and scratch its ears. It purrs softly.
+
+Tim is amazed. He joins Mia and the leopard. He says, "You are brave, Mia. You made the leopard happy. You are a good friend."
+
+The leopard is happy, too. It likes Tim and Mia. It follows them to the park gate, where they see a zookeeper. The zookeeper is looking for the leopard. He is relieved to find it. He says, "Thank you, Tim and Mia. You are very compassionate. You saved the leopard from danger. You are heroes."
+
+Tim and Mia smile. They say goodbye to the leopard and the zookeeper. They are proud of themselves. They learned that compassion can make friends out of enemies. They go home and tell their parents about their adventure.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toys on the floor. Lily had a huge teddy bear that she loved very much. Tom had a small car that he liked to zoom around. They were having fun until Tom saw Lily's teddy bear.
+
+"Can I play with your teddy?" Tom asked Lily.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily said. "You have your car."
+
+"But I want your teddy!" Tom said. He tried to grab the teddy from Lily, but Lily held on tight.
+
+"Let go!" Lily shouted. "It's not yours!"
+
+They pulled and tugged on the teddy, making it rip a little. They both heard a loud noise. It was their mom.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom asked. She saw the teddy and the car on the floor. She saw the rip on the teddy. She was not happy.
+
+"You two are being very naughty!" Mom said. "You need to share your toys and be nice to each other. Now, shut your mouths and go to your rooms. No more playing for today."
+
+Lily and Tom felt sad and sorry. They did not want to go to their rooms. They wanted to play and have fun. They wished they had not fought over the teddy. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They picked up their toys and went to their rooms. They hoped Mom would let them play again soon.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They had a big bottle of water and a spray toy. They liked to spray each other and laugh.
+
+"Spray, spray, spray!" Lily shouted as she squirted Ben with water.
+
+"Hey, stop it!" Ben said. He ran behind a tree and sprayed Lily back.
+
+They had so much fun that they did not see Mom coming. Mom had a big bag of candy in her hands. She wanted to surprise them.
+
+"Hello, my sweeties!" Mom said. She came out from behind the house and smiled.
+
+Lily and Ben saw Mom and ran to her. They dropped the bottle and the spray toy. They wanted the candy.
+
+"Mom, Mom, candy!" they both said.
+
+Mom hugged them and gave them each a piece of candy. She said they could have more later, after lunch.
+
+The candy was yummy and colorful. Lily and Ben thanked Mom and ate their candy.
+
+They were happy, but the bag of candy was still heavy. Mom said they could share it with their friends.
+
+Lily and Ben liked that idea. They picked up the bottle and the spray toy. They said they would go and find their friends.
+
+They ran to the gate and waved to Mom. They said they loved her.
+
+Mom waved back and said she loved them too.
+
+She watched them go and smiled. She was happy too.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play soccer in the park. One day, it is very cold and windy. The sky is gray and the grass is wet. Tom and Sam put on their jackets and hats and go to the park.
+
+They see some other kids playing soccer. They ask if they can join. The other kids say yes. Tom and Sam are happy. They run and kick the ball. They have fun.
+
+But soon, they start to shiver. The wind is bitter and makes them cold. Their noses are red and their fingers are numb. They want to go home and drink hot cocoa.
+
+"Let's go, Sam," Tom says. "I'm too cold to play."
+
+"Me too," Sam says. "This is not fun anymore."
+
+They say bye to the other kids and run to their bikes. They ride fast to Tom's house. They knock on the door. Tom's mom opens it. She sees them shivering.
+
+"Come in, boys," she says. "You look frozen. What were you doing?"
+
+"We were playing soccer, mom," Tom says. "But it was too cold."
+
+"You need to warm up," she says. "I have some hot cocoa for you. Come to the kitchen."
+
+Tom and Sam follow her. They sit at the table and drink the hot cocoa. They feel warm and cozy. They smile at each other.
+
+"Maybe we can play soccer another day," Tom says.
+
+"When it's not so cold," Sam says.
+
+They nod and sip their cocoa. They are happy.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who lived on a farm. They liked to play with the animals in the barn, but sometimes they fought over who got to feed them or pet them. Tim was older and bigger, and he often took the best things for himself. Sam was younger and smaller, and he felt jealous of Tim.
+
+One day, their mom asked them to help her with some chores. She gave Tim a basket of eggs to take to the market, and she gave Sam a bucket of water to fill the trough for the cows. Tim was happy, because he liked to go to the market and see the people and the things they sold. Sam was sad, because he thought filling the trough was boring and hard.
+
+Tim ran to the market with his basket, but he forgot to close the barn door behind him. Sam walked to the trough with his bucket, but he saw that the barn door was open. He was worried that the animals might run away or get hurt. He put down his bucket and ran to the barn. He found the chickens, the pigs, the sheep and the horse all outside, making a lot of noise and mess. He tried to get them back into the barn, but they did not listen to him. He wished Tim was there to help him.
+
+Tim came back from the market with some candy and a toy that he bought with the money he got for the eggs. He was happy, because he thought he had done a good job and got a nice reward. He saw Sam in the barn, covered in mud and feathers, trying to calm down the animals. He laughed at him and said, "You look silly, Sam. Why did you let the animals out? You are bad at chores."
+
+Sam was angry and hurt. He said, "I did not let them out, you did. You forgot to close the barn door. You are selfish and careless. You only think about yourself and what you want. You do not care about the animals or me."
+
+Tim was surprised and ashamed. He realized that he had made a mistake and caused a lot of trouble. He said, "I am sorry, Sam. You are right. I was selfish and careless. I did not think about the animals or you. I only thought about the market and what I could get. I will help you with the animals and the barn. And I will share my candy and toy with you."
+
+Sam smiled and said, "Thank you, Tim. You are not so bad after all. I forgive you. And I will share my bucket and trough with you."
+
+They hugged and helped each other with the chores. They learned to be more careful and generous. They also learned to appreciate each other and the animals. They were happy and grateful for what they had. And they never forgot to close the barn door again.
+Anna loves her dog, Max. Max is a big, brown dog with soft fur and a wet nose. He is very dependable. He always follows Anna when she goes outside to play. He helps her find sticks and balls and chases away the birds.
+
+One day, Anna and Max go for a walk in the park. They see a pond with ducks and frogs. Anna wants to feed the ducks some bread. She tells Max to sit and wait for her. She walks to the edge of the pond and throws some bread in the water. The ducks come closer and quack.
+
+But Max does not sit and wait. He sees a squirrel running up a tree. He forgets about Anna and the ducks. He runs after the squirrel and barks. He is very fast and loud.
+
+Anna hears Max and turns around. She does not see him. She sees the tree and the squirrel. She gets scared. She calls for Max. She wants him to come back and follow her. She does not like being alone.

+Tom and Mia liked to play in the living room. They had many toys and books and a big sofa with colorful cushions. Sometimes they pretended to be animals or superheroes or pirates. One day, they decided to build a fort with the cushions and some blankets.
+
+"Look, Mia, this is our fort. We can hide here and protect ourselves from the bad guys," Tom said, as he arranged the cushions in a square shape.
+
+"Who are the bad guys, Tom?" Mia asked, as she crawled inside the fort with her teddy bear.
+
+"I don't know, maybe the dragon or the witch or the giant. They want to take our toys and books and make us do chores," Tom said, as he grabbed a wooden spoon and a pot lid to use as a sword and a shield.
+
+"That sounds scary, Tom. But we are brave and strong, right?" Mia said, as she hugged her teddy bear.
+
+"Yes, we are, Mia. And we have each other. And our fort. Nothing can hurt us here," Tom said, as he smiled at his sister.
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. It was their mom, who had come home from work. She opened the door and saw the mess in the living room. She was not happy.
+
+"Tom and Mia, what have you done? You have made a big mess with the cushions and the blankets. And you have taken my spoon and my lid. How am I supposed to cook dinner now?" she said, as she walked towards the fort.
+
+Tom and Mia looked at each other. They were afraid. They knew they had done something wrong. They did not want to face their mom. They hoped she would not find them in their fort.
+
+But their mom was smart. She saw the fort and knew they were hiding there. She lifted the blanket and peeked inside. She saw their scared faces and their toys.
+
+"Hello, there. What are you doing in there?" she asked, as she tried to sound calm.
+
+"Hi, mom. We are playing. We are in our fort. We are protecting ourselves from the bad guys," Tom said, as he held his spoon and his lid.
+
+"Who are the bad guys, Tom?" she asked, as she looked at him.
+
+"The dragon and the witch and the giant," Tom said, as he lowered his voice.
+
+"I see. And where are they?" she asked, as she looked around.
+
+"They are outside. They are waiting for us. They want to take our toys and books and make us do chores," Tom said, as he looked at her.
+
+"Really? That sounds very scary. But you know what? I have a secret. Do you want to hear it?" she asked, as she smiled at them.
+
+"What is it, mom?" Mia asked, as she looked at her.
+
+"The secret is, there are no bad guys. There are only good guys. And you are the good guys. And I am the good guy. And we love each other. And we can play together. And we can also clean up together. And we can also have dinner together. How does that sound?" she asked, as she reached out her hand.
+
+Tom and Mia looked at each other. They thought about it. They liked the idea. They nodded. They took their mom's hand. They came out of the fort. They hugged their mom. They said they were sorry. They helped her clean up. They had dinner together. They were happy. They learned a lesson. They did not need to be afraid. They had each other. And they had their mom. And they had their fort.

+
+Anna said, "Ben, share your bread with the ducks. They are hungry too. Sharing is good."
+
+Ben said, "No, no, no. This is mine. Go away, ducks." He waved his hand at the ducks.
+
+One duck was very angry. He did not like Ben. He wanted some bread too. He saw Ben's hand with the bread. He flew up and bit Ben's hand. Ben screamed and dropped the bread. The duck grabbed the bread and flew away.
+
+Ben cried and ran to Mom. Mom hugged him and said, "Are you okay, Ben? That was a naughty duck. He should not have bitten you. But you should have shared your bread with the ducks. Sharing is good. Maybe next time you will share."

+
+Ben throws the carrot rocket in the air. He pretends it is flying to the moon. Max runs after the carrot rocket. He jumps and catches it in his mouth. He thinks it is a tasty snack. He chews and swallows the carrot rocket.

+
+Lily said, "No, you can't. That book is red. You have to read a blue book. Blue is your favorite color. Red is my favorite color. You can only read my red books if I say so."
+
+Max was confused. He said, "But I want to read this book. It has a dragon. I don't care what color it is. Why do you sort your books by color? That's silly. Books are for reading, not for sorting."
+
+Lily was stubborn. She said, "No, it's not silly. It's fun. And it's my rule. You have to follow my rule if you want to play with me. Give me back my red book. Now."
+
+Max was angry. He said, "No, I won't. You are not nice. You are bossy. I don't want to play with you. I will read this book by myself." He ran away with the book.
+
+Lily was sad. She had no one to play with. She looked at her books. They were sorted by color, but they were not fun. She wished she had a friend to read with. She realized she was wrong. She should have shared her books with Max. She should have let him read the book he liked. She should have been kind, not stubborn.
+
+She ran after Max. She said, "Max, I'm sorry. I was mean. You can read any book you want. You can read the red book with the dragon. I will read a blue book with you. I don't care what color it is. I care about you. You are my friend. Will you forgive me?"
+
+Max smiled. He said, "Yes, I forgive you. You are my friend too. Thank you for sharing your books with me. Let's read together. Maybe we can find more books with dragons. Or other things we like."
+
+Lily and Max hugged. They went back to Lily's room. They read the books together. They had fun. They learned that books are for reading, not for sorting. And that friends are for sharing, not for bossing.

+
+One day, his mom told him it was time to go to the toilet. She said he had to put his toys away and follow her. Timmy did not want to go. He wanted to keep playing. He had an idea. He took his yellow duck and hid it under his shirt. He thought his mom would not see it.
+
+He followed his mom to the bathroom. She helped him sit on the toilet and told him to try to pee. Timmy tried, but he did not feel like peeing. He felt like playing. He took out his yellow duck and made it quack. He thought it was funny.
+
+His mom heard the quack and looked at him. She saw the yellow duck and said, "Timmy, what are you doing? You can't play with your duck on the toilet. You have to put it away and focus on peeing."
+
+Timmy did not listen. He kept making his duck quack. He thought his mom would not mind. He was wrong. His mom got angry and took the duck from him. She said, "Timmy, you are being naughty. You have to learn how to use the toilet like a big boy. No more duck for you."
+
+She put the duck on the sink and told him to try again. Timmy was sad. He wanted his duck back. He looked at the sink and saw the duck. He reached for it, but he was too small. He could not reach it. He got frustrated and started to cry.

+
+Timmy nodded. He was sorry. He did not mean to be naughty. He did not mean to fall into the toilet. He did not mean to make his mom angry. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I love you. Can I have my duck back?"
+
+His mom smiled. She said, "I love you too, Timmy. You can have your duck back, but only if you promise to use the toilet like a big boy. Can you do that?"
+
+Timmy nodded. He said, "I promise, mom. I will use the toilet like a big boy. I will not play with my duck on the toilet. I will not jump on the toilet. I will not disappear into the toilet."
+
+His mom hugged him. She said, "That's good, Timmy. I'm proud of you. You are a successful big boy. Now, let's go and play with your duck."
+
+She gave him his duck and they went to his room. He made his duck quack and his mom laughed. He was happy. He had his duck and his mom. He had learned how to use the toilet. He was a successful big boy.

+
+He found the key and unlocked the door. Sara and Ben ran out of the closet and hugged him. They were happy and relieved. They thanked him and said they were sorry.

+But when his dad sees the license, he is not happy. He is angry. He says, "Tom, what did you do? You ruined my license! This is not a toy. This is important. I need this to drive. How can I drive with your writing on it?"
+
+Tom feels sad. He did not know he did something bad. He says, "I'm sorry, dad. I just wanted to write. I like writing. I like you."
+
+His dad sighs. He sees that Tom is sorry. He says, "I know, Tom. I like writing too. And I like you. But you have to be careful. You can't write on everything. Some things are not for writing. You have to ask before you write on something that is not yours. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom nods. He says, "I understand, dad. I won't write on your license again. Can I write on this paper instead?"
+
+His dad smiles. He says, "Yes, you can write on this paper. Here, I'll write with you. Let's write a story together. What do you want to write about?"
+
+Tom thinks. He says, "I want to write about us. We are a family. We love writing. And we love each other."
+
+His dad hugs him. He says, "That's a great story, Tom. Let's write it."
+Ben likes to act. He likes to pretend he is a lion, or a pirate, or a superhero. He makes faces and noises and moves his body. He acts with his toys and his friends and his family.
+
+One day, Ben finds a drum in his room. It is big and round and has a stick. Ben thinks it is a fun toy. He hits the drum with the stick and makes a loud sound. Boom! Boom! Boom! He likes the sound. He thinks it is like a rhythm. He acts like he is a drummer in a band.
+
+But his mom does not like the sound. She thinks it is too noisy. She has a headache and she needs to rest. She comes to Ben's room and asks him to stop. "Ben, please stop hitting the drum. It is too noisy. You are hurting my head. Can you act quietly?"
+
+Ben feels sorry for his mom. He does not want to hurt her head. He loves his mom. He stops hitting the drum. He thinks of another way to act. He picks up a book and acts like he is a teacher. He reads the book to his toys and his friends and his family. He uses a soft voice and makes funny gestures. He acts quietly.
+
+His mom hears him and smiles. She thinks he is a good actor. She is proud of him. She comes to Ben's room and gives him a hug. "Ben, thank you for acting quietly. You are very clever and kind. I like your rhythm. You are a great teacher." Ben hugs her back. He is happy. He likes to act.
+Sam and Mia like to play pretend in the garden. They pretend they are ants and crawl on the grass. They look for food and make a line. They find a brown cookie that someone left on a plate. They pretend it is a big cake for the ant queen.
+
+"Look, Mia, a cake!" Sam says.
+
+"Yum, yum, let's take it to the queen!" Mia says.
+
+They try to lift the cookie, but it is too heavy. They push and pull, but it does not move. They are sad. They want to share the cake with the other ants.
+
+"Maybe we need more ants to help us," Sam says.
+
+"Or maybe we can break the cake into smaller pieces," Mia says.
+
+They look around and see a stick. They pretend it is a knife. They use the stick to cut the cookie into four pieces. They are happy. They each take a piece and make a line again. They crawl to a big flower pot. They pretend it is the ant hill. They give the cake pieces to the ant queen. They pretend she is very happy and thanks them.
+
+"Good job, Sam and Mia, you are the best ants ever!" the ant queen says.
+
+Sam and Mia smile. They like to play pretend. They eat some of the cake and share it with their friends. They have fun in the garden.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their toys and eat snacks. One day, they find a big bag of cookies in the kitchen. They are very happy and take some cookies to their room.
+
+"Let's chew these cookies. They are yummy and sweet," Tim says.
+
+"Yes, let's chew them. But don't eat too many. Mom will be angry," Sam says.
+
+They chew and chew the cookies. They feel full and sleepy. They decide to take a nap on their bed. They close their eyes and snore.
+
+But they do not know that the cookies are not for them. They are for their grandma, who is coming to visit. Mom made the cookies for her, because she is old and has no teeth. She can only chew soft things.
+
+Mom comes to their room and sees the empty bag and the crumbs. She is very sad and angry. She wakes up Tim and Sam and scolds them.
+
+"How could you eat grandma's cookies? They are not for you. They are for her. She has no teeth. She can't chew hard things. You are very ignorant and selfish. You don't think of others. You only think of yourselves. You should be ashamed," Mom says.
+
+Tim and Sam feel very sorry and guilty. They did not know that the cookies are for grandma. They did not mean to hurt her. They want to make up for their mistake.
+
+"Mom, we are sorry. We did not know. We were hungry and curious. We like cookies. We did not think of grandma. We are ignorant and selfish. We are ashamed. Please forgive us," Tim and Sam say.
+
+Mom sees that they are sincere and regretful. She hugs them and forgives them. But she also teaches them a lesson.
+
+"You are forgiven. But you have to learn to be more careful and respectful. You have to ask before you take something that is not yours. You have to think of others and their feelings. You have to share and be kind. You have to be more wise and generous. Do you understand?" Mom says.
+
+Tim and Sam nod and say yes. They understand. They want to be more wise and generous. They want to make grandma happy.
+
+They go to the kitchen and help Mom make more cookies. They make them soft and chewy. They put them in a nice box and write a card. They say sorry and that they love her.
+
+They wait for grandma to come. They give her the box and the card. They hug her and kiss her. They tell her that they are sorry and that they love her.
+
+Grandma is very surprised and touched. She opens the box and sees the cookies. She smiles and thanks them. She takes a cookie and chews it. She says it is delicious and sweet. She says they are very wise and generous. She says she loves them too.
+
+They all sit together and eat cookies. They talk and laugh. They are happy and grateful. They are a family.
+Tom and Anna are brother and sister. They like to play in the garden. One day, they find a big egg under a bush. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Maybe it is a bird," Tom says.
+
+"Maybe it is a dinosaur," Anna says.
+
+They decide to keep the egg and take it to their room. They make a nest for it with some blankets and pillows. They wait for the egg to hatch.
+
+The next morning, they hear a crack. They run to the egg and see a small head poking out. It has yellow fur and big ears. It looks at them with sleepy eyes.
+
+"It is not a bird or a dinosaur," Tom says.
+
+"It is a bunny," Anna says.
+
+They are very happy. They pet the bunny and give it some carrots. The bunny likes them. It snuggles with them in the nest.
+
+"Can we keep the bunny?" Tom asks.
+
+"Of course we can," Anna says.
+
+They name the bunny Fluffy. They love Fluffy and Fluffy loves them. They are a happy family.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They saw a big pond with ducks and fish. They wanted to feed them some bread.
+
+They found a rod near the pond. It was long and thin. Ben said, "Let's use this to reach the ducks. They will like it." He took the rod and waved it in the air.
+
+Lily said, "No, Ben, don't do that. You will scare the ducks. They want to be peaceful. Put the rod down." She tried to take the rod from Ben.
+
+Ben said, "No, Lily, it's fun. I want to play with the rod. It's mine." He pulled the rod away from Lily.
+
+Lily said, "Ben, you are being mean. Share the rod with me. It's not yours." She tugged the rod from Ben.
+
+They both pulled and pushed the rod. They made a lot of noise. The ducks and fish heard them. They did not like it. They swam away from the pond. They hid under the bridge.
+
+Ben and Lily stopped fighting. They looked at the pond. It was empty and quiet. They felt sad. They had no one to feed.
+
+They looked at each other. They said, "Sorry." They hugged. They put the rod down. They walked away from the pond. They decided to play something else. They wanted to be peaceful too.
+Anna loved her hat. It was pink and had a big flower on it. She wore it every day, even when it was hot or rainy. She liked to look at herself in the mirror and admire her hat. She thought she was very pretty with her hat.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom. She saw a boy playing with a ball. He had a blue hat with a star on it. Anna wanted his hat. She thought it was nicer than her hat. She walked up to him and said, "Give me your hat!"
+
+The boy was surprised and scared. He said, "No, this is my hat! Go away!" He tried to run away, but Anna grabbed his hat and pulled it off his head. She put it on her head and said, "Now it is my hat!"
+
+The boy started to cry. He ran to his mom and told her what happened. His mom was angry and came to Anna. She said, "That is not your hat! That is his hat! You are a spoiled and mean girl! Give it back to him now!"
+
+Anna did not want to give it back. She liked the blue hat with the star. She said, "No, it is my hat! I like it!" She pouted and crossed her arms.
+
+Her mom saw what was going on and came to Anna. She said, "Anna, that is not your hat. You have your own hat. It is pink and has a big flower on it. It is a beautiful hat. You should be happy with your hat. You should not take things that belong to others. That is not nice. You should say sorry to the boy and give him his hat back."
+
+Anna felt ashamed. She knew her mom was right. She took off the blue hat and gave it back to the boy. She said, "I'm sorry. I was wrong. Your hat is nice, but it is yours. Here you go." She smiled and hoped he would forgive her.
+
+The boy took his hat and put it on his head. He said, "Thank you. I'm sorry too. I was scared. Your hat is nice, too. It is pink and has a big flower on it. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Anna nodded. She said, "Yes, I want to play with you. What is your name?"
+
+The boy said, "My name is Ben. What is yours?"
+
+Anna said, "My name is Anna. Nice to meet you, Ben."
+
+They became friends and played with the ball. They shared their hats and admired each other. They learned to be kind and respectful. They had fun at the park.
+Lily liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She put on her pink apron and washed her hands. She wanted to be a good and obedient girl.
+
+"Mom, can I stir the soup?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, you can, but be careful. It is very hot," her mom said. She gave Lily a big wooden spoon and watched her.
+
+Lily stirred the soup slowly and gently. She smelled the carrots and the chicken. She felt happy and proud.
+
+"Mom, can I taste the soup?" she asked.
+
+"No, you can't, Lily. It is not ready yet. We have to add some salt and pepper," her mom said. She took a small bowl and poured some soup into it.
+
+"Here, you can taste this. But blow on it first. It is still very hot," she said. She handed the bowl to Lily.
+
+Lily blew on the soup and took a small sip. She made a face. It was too salty and too spicy for her.
+
+"Mom, I don't like it. It hurts my tongue," she said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I put too much salt and pepper. I made a mistake," her mom said. She looked sad.
+
+Lily saw her mom's sad face. She did not want to make her mom sad. She wanted to make her mom happy.
+
+"Mom, it's okay. You can fix it. You can add some water and some sugar. Then it will be yummy," she said.
+
+She gave her mom a hug and a kiss. She smiled and said, "I love you, mom. And I love your soup."
+
+Her mom smiled and hugged her back. She said, "I love you too, Lily. And I love your help. You are a very sweet and obedient girl."
+
+She took the bowl from Lily and poured it back into the pot. She added some water and some sugar. She stirred the soup again.
+
+"Let's try it now. Maybe it will be better," she said.
+
+She gave Lily another bowl of soup. Lily blew on it and tasted it. It was not too salty and not too spicy. It was just right.
+
+"Mom, it is delicious. You are the best cook in the world," she said.
+
+Her mom laughed and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are the best helper in the world."
+
+They ate the soup together and enjoyed it. They were happy and full.
+
+Lily learned to accept her mom's mistake and to help her fix it. She also learned to be obedient and careful in the kitchen. She had fun with her mom and her apron. She loved her mom and her soup.
+Lily was a little spider who liked to make cobwebs. She was very good at it and enjoyed spinning and weaving. She made her cobwebs in different shapes and sizes, and sometimes added beads or feathers to make them pretty.
+
+One day, she saw a big house with many windows. She thought it would be a great place to make a new cobweb. She crawled inside and looked for a spot. She saw a corner with a lamp and a bookshelf. She thought it was perfect. She started to plan her cobweb. She wanted to make it very big and round, with many patterns and colors.
+
+But she did not notice that the house was very modern and clean. The people who lived there did not like cobwebs. They thought they were dirty and ugly. They had a machine that sucked up dust and dirt. They used it every day to keep the house tidy.
+
+The next morning, Lily finished her cobweb. She was very proud of it. She thought it was the most beautiful cobweb ever. She waited for someone to see it and admire it. But instead, she heard a loud noise. It was the machine. It came closer and closer to her corner. She was scared. She tried to run away, but it was too late. The machine sucked up her cobweb and her too.
+
+Lily was very sad. She wished she had not made her cobweb in the house. She wished she had stayed outside, where there were trees and flowers and other spiders. She learned a lesson. She learned that not everyone likes the same things. She learned that she should respect other people's spaces and choices. She learned that she should be happy with what she had.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big jar on a bench. The jar is full of coins and bills. Sara and Tom think the jar is very rich.
+
+"Wow, look at the jar!" Sara says. "It has so much money!"
+
+"Maybe someone forgot it here," Tom says. "Can we take it?"
+
+Sara shakes her head. "No, that is not nice. The money is not ours. Maybe someone worked hard to get it."
+
+"But we can buy many toys and candies with it," Tom says. "And we can share with our friends."
+
+Sara thinks for a moment. She likes toys and candies, too. But she also knows that stealing is wrong. She has an idea.
+
+"Let's do this," she says. "We can leave the jar here, but we can take one coin each. Then we can buy something small and nice for ourselves. And we can say thank you to the jar."
+
+Tom agrees. He thinks that is fair. They each take one coin from the jar. Sara buys a sticker book and Tom buys a balloon. They are happy with their gifts. They go back to the bench and put the jar back.
+
+"Thank you, jar, for sharing with us," they say together. "We hope you find your owner soon."
+
+They hug each other and run to play. They are good friends. They are not rich, but they are kind.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play outside in the sun. But today, it is raining a lot. The rain makes a big flood in the street. Lily and Ben look out the window and see the water.
+
+"Wow, look at the flood!" Lily says. "It is so big and wet!"
+
+"Can we go and play in the flood?" Ben asks. "It looks like fun!"
+
+"No, no, no!" Mom says. "The flood is not good. It is dangerous. You can get hurt or sick. You have to stay inside until the rain stops."
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They want to play outside. They do not like the flood.
+
+Mom sees that they are sad. She has an idea. She brings some paper and crayons. She says, "Why don't you draw a picture of the flood? You can use any colors you want. Maybe you can make the flood look good."
+
+Lily and Ben like the idea. They take the paper and crayons. They start to draw. They draw the water, the trees, the cars, the animals, and the people. They use blue, green, yellow, red, and purple. They make the flood look good.
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "You are very good at drawing. You make the flood look beautiful. Maybe the rain will stop soon and you can play outside again."
+
+Lily and Ben smile too. They say, "Thank you, Mom. We love you. We love drawing too." They hug Mom and show her their pictures. They are happy. They do not mind the flood.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play outside. One day, they find a trail in the woods. They want to see where it goes.
+
+They follow the trail. They see many things. They see flowers, birds, bugs, and trees. They examine everything. They touch, smell, and listen. They are curious and happy.
+
+The trail leads them to a pond. The pond is beautiful. It is blue and shiny. They see fish, frogs, and ducks. They watch them swim and jump. They throw stones and make ripples. They laugh and clap.
+
+They have fun on the trail and the pond. They learn a lot. They are tired and hungry. They go back home. They tell Mom and Dad what they saw. Mom and Dad are proud and happy. They hug and kiss them. They have a snack and a nap. They dream of the trail and the pond.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big red car. They liked to pretend they were driving to different places and having adventures.
+
+One day, they decided to play in the backyard with their car. They put on their hats and sunglasses and got in the car. "Where are we going today?" Lily asked Ben.
+
+"We are going to the zoo!" Ben said. "We will see lions and monkeys and elephants!"
+
+They drove around the yard, making noises like animals. They had a lot of fun. But then, they saw something scary. A big black dog was barking at them from behind the fence. It had sharp teeth and angry eyes.
+
+"Help! Help!" Lily screamed. "The dog is scary! It wants to bite us!"
+
+Ben was scared too, but he wanted to care for his sister. He grabbed the steering wheel and turned the car around. "Don't worry, Lily!" he said. "I will take us away from the dog!"
+
+He drove the car as fast as he could to the other side of the yard. He parked the car near the door and got out. He helped Lily out too. They ran inside the house and hugged their mom.
+
+"Mom, mom!" they said. "There was a scary dog outside! It was barking at us!"
+
+Mom hugged them and kissed them. "I'm sorry, my loves," she said. "That dog belongs to our neighbor. He is not very friendly. But you are safe now. You did a good job driving the car away from him. You are very brave and you care for each other. I'm proud of you."
+
+Ben and Lily smiled. They felt better. They still liked their car, but they decided to play with it inside the house for a while. They knew that mom cared for them too.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play and laugh together. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a clown who makes jokes and balloons. The clown is funny and kind.
+
+"Look, Anna, the clown has a big red nose!" Ben says.
+
+"Yes, and he has a funny hat and shoes!" Anna says.
+
+They go closer to the clown and he gives them each a balloon. Anna gets a pink balloon and Ben gets a blue balloon. They say thank you and smile.
+
+"Do you want to hear a joke?" the clown asks them.
+
+"Yes, please!" they say.
+
+"Okay, here is a joke. Why did the chicken cross the road?" the clown says.
+
+They think hard. They do not know the answer.
+
+"To get to the other side?" Anna guesses.
+
+"No, that is too easy. The chicken crossed the road to bow to the queen!" the clown says.
+
+He makes a bow with his body and his hat falls off. Anna and Ben laugh. They think the joke is funny and silly.
+
+"That is a good joke, clown!" Ben says.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are very sweet. And you, Anna, you are very sweet too. Do you know what sweet means?" the clown says.
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They know what sweet means.
+
+"Sweet means nice and kind and good. Like you and your moms. And like candy and cake and ice cream. Do you like candy and cake and ice cream?" the clown says.
+
+Anna and Ben nod again. They like candy and cake and ice cream very much.
+
+"Then I have a surprise for you. Follow me to my car. I have some candy and cake and ice cream for you. But you have to ask your moms first. Okay?" the clown says.
+
+Anna and Ben look at their moms. Their moms shake their heads. They do not want them to go with the clown.
+
+"No, thank you, clown. We do not go with strangers. Even if they have candy and cake and ice cream. That is not safe. Right, mom?" Anna says.
+
+"Right, Anna. You are very smart. And you, Ben, you are very smart too. The clown may seem nice, but we do not know him. He may want to hurt you or take you away. You have to be careful and stay with us. Okay?" Ben's mom says.
+
+"Okay, mom. We are sorry, clown. We do not want to be rude, but we have to listen to our moms. They love us and protect us. Goodbye, clown. Thank you for the joke and the balloon." Ben says.
+
+Anna and Ben wave goodbye to the clown. The clown looks sad and angry. He gets in his car and drives away. Anna and Ben hug their moms. They are happy and safe.
+
+The moral of the story is: do not trust strangers, even if they seem nice or have something you want. Listen to your parents, they know what is best for you.
+Lily was a little girl who loved her cat, Snowy. Snowy was white and soft and liked to play with Lily. They would chase each other, cuddle and nap together. Lily was very happy with Snowy.
+
+One day, Lily came home from school and looked for Snowy. She could not find him anywhere. She asked her mom, "Where is Snowy?" Her mom looked sad and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. Snowy is dead. He was very old and sick and he went to sleep and did not wake up."
+
+Lily did not understand. She ran to her room and saw Snowy lying on her bed. He looked like he was sleeping, but he was not moving or breathing. Lily touched him and he was cold and stiff. Lily felt a big hurt in her chest and tears in her eyes. She hugged Snowy and said, "Wake up, Snowy! Please wake up! I love you, Snowy!"
+
+Lily wept and wept. She did not want to let go of Snowy. She did not want him to be dead. She wanted him to play with her and cuddle with her and nap with her. She wanted him to be alive.
+
+Her mom came to her room and sat next to her. She stroked Lily's hair and said, "I know, Lily. I know. It's very hard to lose someone you love. Snowy was a good cat and he loved you too. He had a happy life with you. But sometimes, things die and we can't change that. We can only remember them and keep them in our hearts."
+
+Lily looked at her mom and saw that she had tears in her eyes too. She moved closer to her mom and put her head on her chest. She felt her mom's heartbeat and her warm hug. She still felt sad, but she also felt a little better. She said, "I miss Snowy, mom. I miss him so much."
+
+Her mom said, "I miss him too, Lily. I miss him too. But we still have each other, and we still have love. And love never dies." She kissed Lily's head and said, "Do you want to make a picture of Snowy? We can hang it on the wall and look at it every day."
+
+Lily nodded and wiped her tears. She said, "Yes, mom. I want to make a picture of Snowy. I want to make him happy and smiling. I want to show him how much I love him."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "That's a good idea, Lily. That's a very good idea. Let's go get some paper and crayons and make a picture of Snowy." She took Lily's hand and they walked to the living room. Lily still held Snowy in her other hand. She did not want to leave him alone. She kissed his mouth and said, "Goodbye, Snowy. I love you, Snowy. You are the best cat ever."
+Lily liked music very much. She liked to sing and dance and play with her toy piano. One day, her mom took her to a big hall where many people sat and listened to music. Lily saw a man with a stick who made the music start and stop. He was the leader of the music.
+
+The music was very loud and fast and made Lily feel happy and excited. She saw many people playing different things, like drums and horns and strings. She clapped her hands and smiled. Her mom said, "Shh, Lily, we have to be quiet and listen. We can applaud when the music is over."
+
+Lily tried to be quiet, but she wanted to join the music. She hummed and tapped her feet and waved her arms. Some people looked at her and smiled, but some people looked at her and frowned. Lily did not care. She loved the music.
+
+The music got slower and softer and then it stopped. The people in the hall made a lot of noise with their hands. They applauded the music and the leader and the players. Lily applauded too. She was very happy.
+
+The leader of the music saw Lily and smiled. He waved his stick at her and said, "Thank you, little girl, for enjoying our music. You have a lot of energy and spirit. You are a pale star in the dark hall." Lily did not know what he meant, but she liked his words. She said, "Thank you, mister, for making the music. I like it very much. You are a good leader." The people in the hall laughed and applauded more. Lily felt proud and happy. She liked music very much.
+Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play with their toy cars. One day, Sam's car breaks. The wheel falls off. Sam is sad.
+
+"Ben, can you help me?" Sam asks. "My car is broken. I want to repair it."
+
+Ben is kind. He looks at Sam's car. He says, "We need glue. Glue can stick the wheel back on. Do you have glue?"
+
+Sam shakes his head. He says, "No, I don't have glue. Where can we find glue?"
+
+Ben thinks. He says, "Maybe Mom has glue. Let's go and ask her."
+
+They run to the kitchen. Mom is making cookies. She smiles at them.
+
+"Hi, boys. Do you want some cookies?" Mom asks.
+
+"Yes, please. But we also need glue," Ben says.
+
+"Glue? What for?" Mom asks.
+
+"We want to repair Sam's car. The wheel fell off," Ben says.
+
+Mom nods. She says, "I have some glue in the drawer. But you have to be careful. Glue is sticky and messy. And you have to wait for it to dry."
+
+She gives them the glue and some cookies. She also pours some milk for them.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. You are the best," Sam and Ben say.
+
+They go back to their room. They put some glue on the wheel and the car. They press them together. They wait for a long time.
+
+"Is it dry yet?" Sam asks.
+
+Ben touches the wheel. He says, "Yes, it is. It is hard now. The glue worked."
+
+Sam is happy. He says, "Yay! My car is fixed. Let's play again."
+
+They zoom their cars on the floor. They have fun. They also eat their cookies and drink their milk. They are good brothers.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run, jump and slide on the grass and the swings. They saw a big hole in the ground. It was a pit. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Let's go to the pit!" Tom said.
+
+"OK, but be careful!" Lily said.
+
+They ran to the pit and looked down. It was dark and deep. They could not see the bottom. They heard a noise. It was a growl.
+
+"Uh-oh, what is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know, maybe a big dog or a bear!" Tom said.
+
+They were scared. They ran away from the pit. They did not want to meet the animal that made the noise.
+
+They ran to their mom, who was sitting on a bench. She saw them and smiled.
+
+"Did you have fun, kids?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, mom, but we saw a scary pit!" Tom said.
+
+"A scary pit? What do you mean?" she asked.
+
+"There was a big hole in the ground, and we heard a growl!" Lily said.
+
+"Oh, don't worry, that was not a growl. That was a snore. The pit is where the gardener rests after he works hard. He is very successful. He makes the park beautiful and clean. He is a nice man, but he likes to sleep in the pit. He says it is cozy and quiet." she explained.
+
+"Really? He sleeps in the pit?" Tom asked.
+
+"Yes, he does. But he is not a dog or a bear. He is a human, like us. Maybe next time you can say hello to him, if he is awake." she said.
+
+"OK, mom, we will. But can we rest now? We are tired from running." Lily said.
+
+"Of course, you can. Come here, and I will hug you. You did a good job playing and exploring. You are very successful, too." she said.
+
+She hugged them and kissed them. They felt happy and safe. They rested on the bench with their mom. They closed their eyes and dreamed of the park and the pit.
+Anna and Ben were friends who liked to play in the field. They had many toys, but Anna's favorite was a red ball and Ben's favorite was a blue car. One day, they brought their toys to the field and had fun rolling the ball and driving the car.
+
+But then, a new boy came to the field. His name was Sam and he had a big yellow truck. Anna and Ben saw the truck and wanted to play with it. They asked Sam if they could share his truck, but Sam said no. He said it was his truck and he did not want to share.
+
+Anna and Ben felt envious of Sam and his truck. They thought it was not fair that he had such a nice toy and did not let them play with it. They decided to take the truck from Sam when he was not looking. They waited for Sam to go to the tree and then ran to his truck and grabbed it.
+
+Sam saw them and got angry. He shouted at them and chased them. Anna and Ben ran away with the truck, but they did not feel happy. They felt guilty and scared. They knew they did something wrong.
+
+They stopped and looked at each other. They realized they made a mistake. They decided to give the truck back to Sam and say sorry. They walked back to the field and found Sam. They gave him his truck and said they were sorry. They asked him if he could forgive them and share his truck with them.
+
+Sam was surprised and happy. He said he was sorry too. He said he was lonely and did not have any friends. He said he would share his truck with them if they would be his friends. Anna and Ben smiled and nodded. They said they would be his friends and share their toys with him too.
+
+They played together in the field and had fun. They learned that sharing is better than being envious and that making friends is better than making enemies. They were glad they said sorry and made up. They were happy.
+Lily liked to draw with her crayons. She had many colors, but her favorite was green. She used green for grass, trees, frogs, and anything else she liked. She thought green was the best color in the world.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom and dad. She brought her crayons and a big paper. She wanted to draw the park with all the green things. She found a nice spot under a tree and started to draw. She was very happy.
+
+But then, a boy came over and looked at her paper. He said, "Your drawing is ugly. You only use green. That's boring. You should use other colors, like red, blue, and yellow. They are more fun and pretty. You have no style."
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She liked her drawing and her green crayons. She said, "No, I like green. It's my favorite color. I have my own style. You are mean and rude. Go away."
+
+The boy laughed and said, "Whatever. You are silly and weird. Green is a bad color. You don't know anything about art." He walked away and left Lily alone.
+
+Lily wanted to cry, but then she saw her mom and dad coming. They smiled and hugged her. They looked at her drawing and said, "Wow, Lily, your drawing is beautiful. You are very talented and creative. We love your green style. It's unique and special. You should be proud of yourself."
+
+Lily felt happy and proud. She said, "Thank you, mom and dad. I love you. And I love green. It's the best color in the world."
+
+The moral of the story is: You should be yourself and follow your passion. Don't let others make you feel bad about your choices. Everyone has their own style and taste. Respect and appreciate diversity.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in the woods. They had a big dog named Spot who followed them everywhere. One day, they found a long trail of red ribbons in the trees. They wondered who put them there and where they led.
+
+"Let's follow the trail," Ben said. "Maybe we'll find a surprise."
+
+"Okay," Lily said. "But we have to be careful. Mom said there are bad people in the woods sometimes."
+
+They walked along the trail, holding hands and looking at the ribbons. Spot barked and ran ahead of them. He smelled something strange. He found a big box wrapped in red paper and a bow. He thought it was a toy and started to tear it open.
+
+But the box was not a toy. It was a trap. Inside the box was a mean man with a gun. He wanted to catch the twins and take them away. He had put the ribbons to lure them. He was a very poor and greedy man who did bad things.
+
+He jumped out of the box and pointed the gun at Spot. He shouted, "Get away from my box, you stupid dog!"
+
+Spot was scared and hurt. He whimpered and ran back to the twins. Ben and Lily saw the man and the gun. They were very scared too. They screamed and turned around to run away.
+
+But the man was faster. He ran after them and grabbed Lily by the hair. He pulled her to him and said, "You're coming with me, little girl. You'll make me rich."
+
+Ben saw his sister in trouble. He loved her very much. He was brave and angry. He picked up a big stick and hit the man on the head. The man let go of Lily and fell to the ground. He dropped the gun.
+
+Ben and Lily ran as fast as they could. They found Spot and hugged him. They ran all the way back to their house. They told their mom what happened. She was very proud of them and very worried. She called the police and they came to the woods. They found the man and the box and the gun. They took him away and locked him up.
+
+Ben and Lily were safe and happy. They never followed a strange trail again. They played with Spot and their mom and their friends. They learned a lesson: not all surprises are good.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big bus. The bus has many numbers on it. The numbers are red and blue and yellow.
+
+"Look, Anna, a bus!" Ben says. "Can you see the numbers?"
+
+"Yes, I can see the numbers," Anna says. "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. The bus has ten numbers."
+
+The bus stops near the park. The door opens. Many people come out of the bus. Some people have bags and hats and coats. Some people have dogs and cats and birds. The people are happy. They smile and talk.
+
+"Hello, people!" Anna and Ben say. They wave to the people. The people wave back.
+
+"Hello, children!" one of the people says. He has a big beard and a loud voice. He is the driver of the bus. "Do you like the bus?"
+
+"Yes, we like the bus," Anna and Ben say. "The bus is big and colorful and has many numbers."
+
+"Would you like to see the inside of the bus?" the driver asks. "You can sit on the seats and press the buttons and hear the horn."
+
+"Yes, please!" Anna and Ben say. They are excited. They follow the driver to the bus. They climb the stairs and sit on the seats. They press the buttons and hear the horn. The horn is very loud. Anna and Ben laugh.
+
+The driver tells them stories about the bus and the people and the places he visits. Anna and Ben listen and ask questions. They have fun. They learn new things. They thank the driver and say goodbye. They wave to the bus as it leaves. They go back to the park and play some more. They are happy. They are friends.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play with cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. One day, they found a big yellow car that looked like a lion. It had a mane, a tail, and teeth. They thought it was unusual and fun.
+
+"Let's play with the lion car!" Tim said.
+
+"OK, but I want to drive it first!" Sam said.
+
+They took turns to drive the lion car around the room. They made noises like a lion and pretended to chase other cars. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, Sam wanted to drive the lion car again. He grabbed it from Tim and ran away.
+
+"Hey, give it back!" Tim shouted.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Sam said.
+
+They started to fight over the lion car. They pulled and pushed and yelled. They did not see the big window behind them.
+
+Suddenly, the lion car slipped from their hands and flew out of the window. It crashed on the street and broke into pieces.
+
+Tim and Sam stopped fighting and looked out of the window. They saw the lion car on the ground, with its mane, tail, and teeth scattered. They felt very sad and sorry.
+
+They heard their mom coming up the stairs. She was angry and worried.
+
+"What did you do?" she asked.
+
+"We broke the lion car," Tim and Sam said.
+
+They knew they were in trouble. They wished they had not fought over the lion car. They wished they had shared it and played nicely. They learned a hard lesson.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a fat belly, a carrot nose, and a hat. They gave him a name: Bob.
+
+"Hello, Bob!" Tom said. "You are our friend."
+
+"Yes, you are very nice," Lily said. "But you look cold. Do you want a scarf?"
+
+They looked for a scarf, but they could not find one. They saw a red point on the snow. It was a bird. The bird was singing.
+
+"Hello, bird!" Tom said. "Do you know where we can find a scarf for Bob?"
+
+The bird flew down and landed on Bob's hat. It looked at Tom and Lily.
+
+"Sorry, I don't know," the bird said. "But you should hurry. The sun is coming out. It will make Bob melt."
+
+Tom and Lily gasped. They did not want Bob to melt. They wanted him to stay with them.
+
+"What can we do?" Tom asked.
+
+"Maybe you can move him to a shady place," the bird suggested. "Or you can cover him with more snow."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They thanked the bird and started to work. They pushed and pulled Bob to a big tree. They piled more snow on him. They hoped he would be safe.
+
+"Goodbye, Bob!" Tom said. "We will come back tomorrow."
+
+"Take care, Bob!" Lily said. "We love you."
+
+They waved to Bob and the bird. They ran back to their house. They hoped Bob would not melt. They wanted to play with him again.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play with blocks. They make a big stack of blocks in the living room. They are very proud of their stack.
+
+"Look, Mom, look!" Tim says. "We made a stack!"
+
+Mom comes to see. She smiles and says, "Wow, that's a very high stack! You did a good job, boys!"
+
+But then, the cat comes. The cat is hungry. She sees a mouse on the floor. She runs after the mouse. She does not see the stack of blocks.
+
+"Oh no, watch out, cat!" Sam says. But it is too late. The cat bumps into the stack of blocks. The stack falls down. The blocks make a loud noise. The cat and the mouse run away.
+
+Tim and Sam are sad. They worked hard to make the stack. Now it is gone.
+
+"Sorry, boys," Mom says. "The cat did not mean to do that. She was hungry and wanted to catch the mouse. Maybe you can make another stack later."
+
+Tim and Sam nod. They are still sad, but they understand. They hug Mom and say, "We love you, Mom."
+
+Mom hugs them back and says, "I love you too, boys. How about we have some snacks? I'm sure you are hungry too."
+
+Tim and Sam smile. They like snacks. They follow Mom to the kitchen. They forget about the stack of blocks for now. They will play with them again another day.

+
+The next day, their teacher asked them where the sign was. They pretended not to know, but the teacher saw them hiding it the day before. She was very angry with them and told them to sit apart from each other in class. 
+
+The two kids were very ashamed and sad. They whispered to themselves that they Wish they hadn't hidden the sign. Then, their teacher said: “If you had just read the sign, you wouldn't be in the situation you are in now!†
+
+The kids were very sad and wished they had read the sign. From that day on, they were not friends anymore and the kids were left feeling very ashamed.

+
+The little girl was very angry. She watched as the notebook got smaller and smaller. Soon, it was only the size of her palm. She shook it, but nothing happened.
+
+Luckily, the notebook could still open and she was able to write in it. She filled it with stories and doodles, and was very happy. Every day, she wrote in her shrunken notebook and it never grew back. But she didn’t mind, because she was glad to have it.

+
+The little boy was so happy that he could now have a clean shirt. The mom was so proud of her patient and sweet son. They hugged each other, and the spot was gone forever.
+Once there was a little girl who liked to try new things. She always looked up at the sky and thought about the universe. It was so big and so high! One day she decided she would try to reach the universe.
+
+So she took a big jump and tried to jump as high as she could. She jumped, and jumped, and jumped! But try as she might, she just couldn’t reach the high universe.
+
+The little girl was sad. But she decided not to give up. She put on her running shoes and started sprinting. She sprinted all around, trying as hard as she could to reach the universe. But try as she might, she just couldn’t reach the high universe.

+
+Sadly, Marcus never had the chance to experience the sun, the flower, or even the happiness it could bring. He suffered in the bush until his death.

+
+The wind made them feel scared and sad. All the little people hugged each other and began to call out for help. Then suddenly, a friendly blow came through the sky. The wind was soft and gentle, just right for the little people to start spinning again. 
+
+Soon, the little people were twirling and swishing around in the sunshine again. From then on, whenever the harsh wind blew in, the little people all hugged each other tight and waited for the friendly wind to come.

+
+The little girl ran away as fast as she could, and she sighed with sadness. No matter how friendly a creature might seem, sometimes things do not turn out the way we hope.

+
+Finally, the family realized that Fido was too small to eat steak. They decided to give Fido his own bowl of food.
+
+The family learned a valuable lesson that day - that some things just don't fit. Sometimes, everyone needs their own space.

+
+Joe laughed at Harry for his poor cleaning and said that he could do it better. So Joe cleaned the house, but at the end of the day it was still just as dirty.
