+Lily smiles and says, "Yes, we can still play. Come on, let's join Mia and Sam. They are waiting for us."
+
+Lily and Ben hug and run to the others. They apologize to Mia and Sam and ask if they can play again. Mia and Sam say yes and welcome them back. They continue playing the quiz and have fun. They are all friends.
+Tom and Lily like to play with wire. They find wire in the big box in the garage. They take some wire and go to the garden. They make shapes with the wire. They make a star, a heart, a circle and a square. They are happy.
+
+But then, Max comes. Max is the big dog next door. He sees the wire and wants to play too. He runs to the garden and barks. He jumps on the wire and breaks it. He makes a mess. Tom and Lily are sad and scared.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to the garden. She sees Max and the wire. She is angry. She tells Max to go away. She picks up the wire and puts it back in the box. She hugs Tom and Lily and says sorry. She gives them some cookies and milk. They go to the living room and sit on the couch. They watch a show on the TV. They are peaceful.
+Ben and Lily were bored. They had nothing to do. All their toys were dull. They wanted to have some fun.
+
+"Let's race!" Ben said. "We can run to the big tree and back."
+
+"OK!" Lily said. "But we need something to make it more fun. How about we each take a grape and see who can eat it faster?"
+
+"Good idea!" Ben said. He ran to the kitchen and got two grapes. He gave one to Lily and kept one for himself.
+
+"Ready, set, go!" Ben shouted. They both ran as fast as they could to the big tree. They bit their grapes and chewed them quickly.
+
+Ben was ahead of Lily. He thought he would win. But then he felt something tickle his nose. He sneezed. His grape flew out of his mouth.
+
+Lily saw Ben sneeze. She laughed. She ran past him and reached the kitchen first. She swallowed her grape and said, "I win!"
+
+Ben was sad. He lost his grape and the race. He walked back to the kitchen. He saw Lily smiling.
+
+"Here, you can have another grape," Lily said. She gave Ben a grape from the bowl. "You are a good racer. Next time, don't sneeze."
+
+Ben smiled. He took the grape and said, "Thank you. You are a good racer too. Next time, I will try not to sneeze."
+
+They both ate their grapes and hugged. They were not bored anymore. They had fun.
+Sara and Ben were playing with their blocks. They made a big tower and a small house. They were happy and proud of their work.
+
+"Look, Mommy, look!" Sara called. "We made a tower and a house!"
+
+Mommy came to see. She smiled and clapped her hands. "Wow, you did a great job, Sara and Ben! You are very clever and creative!"
+
+"Can we join you, Mommy?" Ben asked. "We want to help you with your work."
+
+Mommy was wrapping some gifts for Daddy. She had paper, tape, scissors and ribbons. She nodded and said, "Of course, you can join me. You can help me wrap the gifts. But be careful with the scissors, they are sharp."
+
+Sara and Ben were excited. They sat next to Mommy and watched her wrap the gifts. They tried to copy her. They cut the paper, taped the edges, and tied the ribbons. They had fun and made some nice wraps.
+
+But they also made some mistakes. They cut the paper too big or too small. They taped the paper too loose or too tight. They tied the ribbons too long or too short. They had some paper and tape and ribbons left over.
+
+They decided to use them for something else. They wrapped their blocks, their toys, their books, and even their cat. They laughed and giggled as they made their own gifts.
+
+But the cat did not like it. She meowed and scratched and tried to get out of the wrap. She tore the paper and the tape and the ribbons. She made a big mess.
+
+"Stop, stop, stop!" Mommy said. "That is not nice. That is not a gift. That is disgusting. You are hurting the cat and wasting the paper and the tape and the ribbons. You have to be gentle and respectful with the cat and the things. You have to clean up the mess."
+
+Sara and Ben felt sorry. They did not mean to be bad. They wanted to have fun and make gifts. They said, "We are sorry, Mommy. We are sorry, cat. We will clean up the mess. We will be gentle and respectful. We will not wrap the cat or the things again."
+
+Mommy hugged them and said, "I know, I know. You are good kids. You were just curious and playful. But you have to learn to be careful and responsible. You have to think before you do something. You have to ask for permission and follow the rules. You have to listen to me and the cat."
+
+Sara and Ben nodded and said, "We understand, Mommy. We will learn. We will listen. We will ask. We will follow."
+
+They cleaned up the mess. They unwrapped the cat and the things. They put them back where they belonged. They apologized to the cat and gave her some food and water. They thanked Mommy for letting them join her. They gave her a kiss and a hug.
+
+Mommy smiled and said, "I love you, Sara and Ben. You are my sweet and smart kids. You make me happy and proud. You are my best gifts."
+Lily was a little girl who loved her dog, Spot. Spot was a big dog with black and white fur. Lily liked to play with Spot in the yard and hug him and give him treats. One day, Lily saw a new thing in the store. It was a collar for dogs. It was orange and shiny and had bells on it. Lily thought it was pretty and wanted to buy it for Spot.
+
+Lily asked her mom if she could have the collar. Her mom said yes, but they had to measure Spot's neck first. They went home and got a string and a ruler. Lily put the string around Spot's neck and made a mark. Then she used the ruler to see how long the string was. She wrote the number on a paper. She was very happy and said, "Now we can go back to the store and get the collar!"
+
+Lily and her mom went back to the store and found the orange collar. Lily showed the paper to the lady who worked there. The lady said, "This collar is too small for your dog. It will hurt him and make him choke. You need a bigger collar." Lily was sad and said, "But I like this collar. It is so pretty and shiny and has bells on it. Please, can I have it?" The lady said, "No, you can't. It is not good for your dog. You have to choose another collar." Lily was angry and said, "No, I don't. I want this collar. It is mine!" She grabbed the collar and ran out of the store.
+
+Lily's mom chased after her and tried to stop her. But Lily was too fast and ran all the way to the yard. She put the collar on Spot and said, "Look, Spot, I got you a new collar. It is orange and shiny and has bells on it. You look so pretty!" Spot did not like the collar. It was too tight and made him cough and gag. He tried to scratch it off, but he couldn't. He whined and barked and looked at Lily with sad eyes. Lily did not notice. She was too busy admiring the collar and making it jingle.
+
+Spot felt worse and worse. He could not breathe well and his neck hurt. He fell down and lay still. Lily saw him and said, "Spot, what are you doing? Get up and play with me!" She shook him and pulled him, but he did not move. He did not make any sound. He was not alive. Lily screamed and cried and said, "Spot, Spot, wake up! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you!" But it was too late. Spot was gone. Lily had killed him with the collar. She was very sorry and very sad. She wished she had listened to the lady and her mom and chosen a bigger collar. She wished she had not been selfish and greedy and stubborn. She wished she had not lost her best friend. She wished she could say sorry to Spot and hug him and give him treats. But she couldn't. She had made a big mistake and she had to live with it. The end.
+Sara likes to play in the garden. She likes to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. One day, she finds a big beetle. It is black and shiny and has long legs. Sara picks it up and puts it in her hand.
+
+The beetle does not like to be in Sara's hand. It wants to go back to the dirt. It makes a loud noise with its wings. Sara can hear the noise. It sounds like a buzz. Sara thinks the noise is funny. She laughs and says, "Buzz, buzz, beetle!"
+
+Sara's mom comes to the garden. She sees Sara with the beetle. She says, "Sara, what do you have there?" Sara shows her mom the beetle. She says, "Look, mom, a beetle! It makes a buzz!" Sara's mom smiles and says, "That's a nice beetle, Sara. But you should let it go. It might bite you."
+
+Sara does not want to let the beetle go. She likes the beetle. She says, "No, mom, the beetle is my friend. It does not bite me." Sara's mom says, "Okay, Sara, but be careful. And don't put it in your mouth. It might be spicy."
+
+Sara does not know what spicy means. She thinks it means tasty. She wants to taste the beetle. She opens her mouth and brings the beetle closer. The beetle does not want to be in Sara's mouth. It makes a louder noise and tries to escape. Sara feels the noise in her mouth. It tickles her tongue. She says, "Ooh, spicy!" She spits out the beetle and makes a face.
+
+Sara's mom sees what Sara did. She says, "Sara, no! Don't eat the beetle! That's yucky!" Sara says, "Sorry, mom. The beetle is spicy. I don't like spicy." Sara's mom says, "I know, Sara. Spicy means hot and strong. It can hurt your mouth. You should only eat food, not bugs." Sara says, "Okay, mom. I won't eat bugs. I will eat food." Sara's mom says, "Good, Sara. Now, let's go inside and have some lunch. How about some soup and bread?" Sara says, "Yes, mom. I like soup and bread. They are not spicy." Sara and her mom go inside and leave the beetle in the garden. The beetle is happy to be free. It goes back to the dirt and makes a buzz.
+Tom and Mia are brother and sister. They like to play with their toys in the living room. But today, Mom says they have to take a nap. She says they are too tired and cranky.
+
+"No nap! No nap!" Tom and Mia shout. They do not want to sleep. They want to play. They run away from Mom and hide under the table. Mom looks for them and says, "Come on, Tom and Mia. It is nap time. You will feel better after a nap."
+
+But Tom and Mia do not listen. They make a loud noise with their toys. They bang and crash and squeak and honk. They laugh and giggle and scream. They make Mom very angry.
+
+Mom finds them under the table and says, "That's enough, Tom and Mia. You are very naughty. You have to go to your room now. No more toys for you. And no snack later. You have to stay in your room until dinner."
+
+Tom and Mia cry and beg. They say they are sorry. They say they will take a nap. But Mom does not change her mind. She takes them to their room and shuts the door. Tom and Mia are sad and bored. They wish they had taken a nap. They wish they had not made a loud noise. They wish they had listened to Mom.
+Lily and Ben were eager to play with their new toy cars. They wanted to race them on the floor and see who was faster. They asked their mom if they could play in the living room.
+
+"Okay, but be careful not to break anything," mom said. "And don't make too much noise, your dad is working in his office."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and ran to the living room. They found a long space between the sofa and the wall. They decided to use it as their track. They put their cars at one end and got ready to push them.
+
+"Ready, set, go!" Lily shouted and pushed her red car.
+
+Ben pushed his blue car at the same time. The cars zoomed along the floor, making vroom-vroom sounds. Lily and Ben cheered and followed them with their eyes.
+
+But then, something happened. The cars were going so fast that they missed the end of the track. They crashed into the curtain that covered the window. The curtain fell down with a loud thud, and the cars got tangled in the fabric.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Ben gasped. They ran to the curtain and tried to free their cars. But they were stuck.
+
+They heard their dad's voice from his office. "What was that noise?" he asked.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They knew they were in trouble. They quickly hid behind the sofa and hoped their dad would not see them. They whispered to each other.
+
+"Sorry, Lily. It was my fault. I pushed my car too hard," Ben said.
+
+"No, it was my fault. I shouted too loud," Lily said.
+
+They hugged each other and waited for their dad to come. They hoped he would not be too angry. They hoped he would help them fix the curtain. They hoped they could still play with their cars. They learned a lesson. Next time, they would race more carefully.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and find bugs and stones. They had a secret spot under the big tree, where they hid their treasures.
+
+"Look, I found a shiny rock!" Lily said, holding up a smooth pebble.
+
+"Wow, that's pretty!" Tom said. "Can I see?"
+
+Lily gave him the rock and he rubbed it with his fingers. It felt nice and cool.
+
+"Let's clean it with some water," he said. "Maybe it will sparkle more."
+
+They ran to the hose and turned it on. They washed the rock and saw it glitter in the sun.
+
+"Ooh, it's so bright!" Lily said. "It's like a star!"
+
+They heard their mom calling them from the house.
+
+"Tom! Lily! Time to come in and have a snack!"
+
+They turned off the hose and dried their hands.
+
+"Where should we put the rock?" Tom asked.
+
+"Let's hide it in our secret spot," Lily said. "We can show it to dad later."
+
+They ran to the big tree and dug a small hole. They put the rock inside and covered it with dirt and leaves.
+
+"There, it's safe," Lily said.
+
+They smiled at each other and ran to the house.
+
+They had a rough day, but they were happy. They had a secret star.
+Sara loved to draw with her pastels. She had many colors: pink, blue, yellow, green, and purple. She liked to make pictures of flowers, stars, and animals. She was very happy when she drew.
+
+One day, she was drawing on the sidewalk outside her house. She was making a big rainbow with her pastels. She was almost done when she heard a loud noise. She looked up and saw a big truck zoom by. The truck was very fast and very noisy. It made Sara frightened. She dropped her pastels and ran to her mom.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, a big truck zoomed by and scared me!" Sara cried.
+
+"Oh, Sara, I'm sorry. Are you okay?" Mommy asked. She hugged Sara and kissed her cheek.
+
+"Yes, mommy, I'm okay. But my pastels!" Sara said. She looked at the sidewalk and saw that some of her pastels were broken and some were missing. The truck had run over them.
+
+"Oh, no, your pastels! That's not fair. You worked so hard on your rainbow," Mommy said. She was angry at the truck.
+
+"Can we get new pastels, mommy?" Sara asked.
+
+"Of course, Sara. We can go to the store and get new pastels. And maybe some stickers, too. How does that sound?" Mommy asked.
+
+"That sounds good, mommy. Thank you, mommy. I love you, mommy," Sara said.
+
+"I love you, too, Sara. Come on, let's go," Mommy said. She took Sara's hand and they walked to the car. Sara felt better. She still liked to draw with her pastels. She hoped the truck would not zoom by again.
+Lily and Ben were bored. They had played with all their toys and read all their books. They wanted to do something new and fun.
+
+"Let's create something!" Lily said. She had a big box of crayons and paper. "We can draw anything we want!"
+
+"Okay!" Ben said. He liked to draw. He took a crayon and a paper. "What should we draw?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She wanted to draw something adventurous. Something that would make them feel excited and happy. She had an idea.
+
+"Let's draw a plate!" she said. "But not a normal plate. A magic plate!"
+
+"A magic plate?" Ben asked. He was curious. "What can it do?"
+
+Lily smiled. She started to draw a round plate with a star in the middle. "This plate can take us to any place we want!" she said. "We just have to say the name of the place and touch the star. Then we can go there and have fun!"
+
+Ben liked the idea. He started to draw a plate too. He drew a plate with a moon in the middle. "This plate can take us to the moon!" he said. "We can see the stars and the planets and jump really high!"
+
+Lily and Ben finished their plates. They were proud of their creations. They showed them to each other and smiled.
+
+"Where do you want to go first?" Lily asked.
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He wanted to go somewhere adventurous. Somewhere that would make them feel amazed and happy. He had an idea.
+
+"Let's go to the jungle!" he said. "We can see the animals and the trees and swing on the vines!"
+
+Lily liked the idea. She took her plate and said "Jungle!" She touched the star and held Ben's hand.
+
+Suddenly, they felt a whoosh. They closed their eyes and opened them again. They were in the jungle! They saw the monkeys and the birds and the flowers. They heard the noises and the smells. They felt the breeze and the sun.
+
+They were happy. They had created a magic plate. They had gone on an adventurous trip. They had done something new and fun.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the sand. They liked to make hills and dig holes. They had a big bucket of water to make the sand wet. They were having fun.
+
+But then the water ran out. The bucket was empty. Tom and Lily were thirsty and hot. They looked around. They saw a lot of sand and rocks. They did not see any water.
+
+"Where can we find water?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know," Lily said. "Maybe over there." She pointed to a green spot far away.
+
+"Let's go and see," Tom said. They took their bucket and walked towards the green spot.
+
+As they got closer, they saw that the green spot was an oasis. It had palm trees and grass and a pond. Tom and Lily were happy. They ran to the pond and filled their bucket. They drank some water and splashed each other.
+
+"This is a nice place," Lily said.
+
+"Yes, it is," Tom said. "But how did it get here? There is only sand and rocks everywhere else."
+
+They looked around. They saw a big pipe sticking out of the ground. It had a valve on it. They were confused.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know," Tom said. "Maybe it makes water."
+
+They walked to the pipe and looked at the valve. It had a red handle. Tom was curious. He wanted to see what would happen if he turned it.
+
+He reached for the handle and turned it. Suddenly, water sprang out of the pipe. It was a fountain. It sprayed water high in the air. Tom and Lily were surprised. They laughed and clapped.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Tom said.
+
+"It's so pretty!" Lily said.
+
+They played in the fountain. They got wet and cool. They had more fun.
+
+They did not know that the pipe was part of a secret project. It was a test for making water in the desert. They did not know that someone was watching them on a camera. They did not know that they had just turned on the water for the whole oasis. They did not know that they had made a big discovery. They only knew that they had found a wonderful place to play.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the dark. They had a flashlight and a bow and arrow. They pretended to be hunters and animals.
+
+"Roar! I am a big lion!" Tom said. He ran around the room and jumped on the bed.
+
+"I am a brave hunter! I will catch you!" Lily said. She held the flashlight and the bow. She aimed at Tom and shot the arrow.
+
+"Ow! You got me!" Tom said. He fell on the floor and did not move. He made his eyes closed and his tongue out.
+
+Lily ran to him and shone the flashlight on his face. She saw his tongue and laughed.
+
+"Tom, you are not dead! You are silly!" she said.
+
+Tom opened his eyes and smiled. He grabbed the flashlight and turned it off.
+
+"Boo! I scared you!" he said.
+
+Lily screamed and hugged him. They both giggled and turned the flashlight on again.
+
+They continued to play in the dark until their mom called them for dinner.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They saw a big girl with shiny sunglasses. She looked very cool and happy.
+
+"Wow, look at her sunglasses!" Lily said. "They are so pretty and bright. I want sunglasses like that."
+
+Max nodded. He also liked the sunglasses. He wanted to be cool and happy like the big girl.
+
+They ran to the big girl and said hello. The big girl smiled and said hello back.
+
+"Can we see your sunglasses?" Lily asked. "We admire them a lot. They are very different from our normal glasses."
+
+The big girl took off her sunglasses and gave them to Lily and Max. They tried them on and looked at each other. They felt very cool and happy.
+
+"Thank you for letting us try your sunglasses," Max said. "They are very nice. Where did you get them?"
+
+The big girl laughed and said, "I got them from my mom. She gave them to me for my birthday. She said they are special sunglasses. They help me see better when the sun is bright. They also make me feel confident and brave."
+
+Lily and Max smiled. They liked the big girl and her mom. They gave back the sunglasses and said goodbye.
+
+They went back to playing in the park. They felt happy and brave too. They did not need special sunglasses to be cool. They had each other and their normal glasses. They were normal and cool.
+One day, Ben and Lily went to the beach with their mom. They liked to play in the sand and look for shells. They found many shells of different colors and shapes. Some were big, some were small, some were smooth, some were rough.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a shell that looks like a star!" Ben said, holding a shiny shell in his hand.
+
+"Wow, Ben, that's a unique shell! Can I see it?" Lily asked, reaching for the shell.
+
+"OK, but be careful. It's very special to me. Promise you won't break it or lose it," Ben said, giving the shell to Lily.
+
+"I promise, Ben. I'll be very careful," Lily said, taking the shell. She looked at it closely and admired its sparkles.
+
+They played with the shell for a while, then they decided to build a sandcastle. They used some of the shells they found to decorate the castle. They made windows, doors, flags, and flowers with the shells. They were very proud of their castle.
+
+"Let's put the star shell on top of the castle. It will be the crown," Ben said, looking for the shell.
+
+"OK, Ben. Where is it?" Lily asked, looking around.
+
+"I don't know. I gave it to you. Where did you put it?" Ben asked, feeling worried.
+
+"I don't know. I thought I put it in my pocket. But it's not there. Maybe it fell out when we were playing," Lily said, feeling sorry.
+
+They searched for the shell in the sand, but they couldn't find it. It was too small and too shiny. It blended in with the sand and the sun.
+
+"Ben, I'm so sorry. I broke my promise. I lost your unique shell. Please don't be mad at me," Lily said, with tears in her eyes.
+
+Ben looked at Lily and saw that she was very sad. He felt sad too, but he also felt sorry for Lily. He knew that she didn't mean to lose the shell. He knew that she liked the shell too.
+
+"It's OK, Lily. I'm not mad at you. I know you tried to be careful. It was an accident. Accidents happen sometimes. The shell was unique, but you are more unique to me. You are my sister and I love you," Ben said, hugging Lily.
+
+Lily hugged Ben back and smiled. She felt happy that Ben forgave her. She loved him too.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are very kind and generous. You are more unique to me too. You are my brother and I love you," Lily said.
+
+They smiled at each other and went back to their sandcastle. They decided to make another crown with a different shell. They had fun playing together and sharing their shells. They learned that promises are important, but so are forgiveness and love.
+Lily loved her family very much. She had a mommy, a daddy, a big brother and a baby sister. She also had a dog named Spot, who was adorable and fluffy. Lily liked to play with Spot and give him hugs and kisses.
+
+One day, Lily's mommy said, "We are going to visit grandma and grandpa today. They live far away, so we have to pack our bags and go in the car for a long time. Do you want to come with us, Lily?"
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She liked grandma and grandpa. They always gave her cookies and toys and read her stories. She ran to her room and packed her favorite doll and blanket. She also packed a bone for Spot, because she wanted him to be happy too.
+
+Lily's daddy put the bags and Spot in the car. Lily climbed in and buckled her seat belt. She held her doll and looked out the window. She saw trees and houses and cars and birds. She sang songs with her big brother and baby sister. She was excited to see grandma and grandpa.
+
+But when they got to grandma and grandpa's house, something was wrong. Spot jumped out of the car and ran to the backyard. Lily followed him and saw a big mess. Spot had dug holes in the grass and flowers. He had chewed on grandma's shoes and grandpa's hat. He had knocked over a bird feeder and a trash can. He had spoiled everything.
+
+Grandma and grandpa came out and saw the mess too. They looked angry and sad. Lily felt bad and scared. She said, "I'm sorry, grandma and grandpa. Spot is a good dog, but he doesn't know the rules here. He just wanted to have fun. Please don't be mad at him or me."
+
+Grandma and grandpa sighed and smiled. They said, "We're not mad at you, Lily. We know you love Spot and he loves you. He is adorable, but he needs to learn some manners. We'll help you clean up the mess and teach him how to behave. We love you and your family very much. Come on, let's go inside and have some cookies and milk."
+Anna loved to dream. Every night, she would close her eyes and imagine wonderful things. She dreamed of flying with birds, swimming with fish, and playing with fairies. She felt happy and free in her dreams.
+
+One night, she had a different dream. She dreamed of a big, dark house. She was alone and scared. She heard strange noises and saw scary shadows. She wanted to wake up, but she could not. She felt anxious and trapped in her dream.
+
+She saw a door with a sign that said "Do not enter". She was curious and opened the door. She smelled a strong perfume that made her sneeze. She saw a lady with a long dress and a big hat. The lady looked angry and mean.
+
+"Who are you? What are you doing here?" the lady shouted. "This is my house and my perfume. You are not welcome here. Go away!"
+
+Anna was frightened and tried to run away. But the lady grabbed her by the hair and pulled her inside. She locked the door and turned off the light. Anna screamed and cried, but no one heard her. She was stuck in her dream with the lady and the perfume. She wished she never opened the door.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of toys, but their favorite was a big stuffed monkey. The monkey was soft and brown and had a long tail. They liked to hug it and swing it and make funny noises.
+
+One day, their mom came in with a big box. She said it was a gift for their grandma, who lived far away. She said they had to be very careful with the box, because it had something fragile inside. Fragile meant that it could break easily if it was dropped or hit.
+
+Lily and Tom were curious about the box. They wanted to see what was inside. They waited until their mom went to the kitchen, and then they sneaked over to the box. They lifted the lid and saw a shiny vase with flowers painted on it. It was very pretty, but not as fun as their monkey.
+
+Tom had an idea. He said to Lily, "Let's remove the vase and put the monkey in the box. Then we can surprise grandma with our monkey. She will love it!" Lily thought it was a funny idea, and she nodded. They carefully took out the vase and put it on the floor. Then they grabbed their monkey and stuffed it in the box. They closed the lid and smiled.
+
+They did not see their mom coming back from the kitchen. She saw the vase on the floor and the box on the table. She was very angry. She said, "What have you done? You have removed the vase from the box and put your monkey in it? That was a very bad thing to do. The vase was fragile and could have broken. And grandma does not want your monkey. She wants the vase. It was a special gift for her birthday."
+
+Lily and Tom felt very sorry. They did not mean to make their mom angry or their grandma sad. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We just wanted to make grandma happy. We love our monkey and we thought she would love it too." Their mom sighed and hugged them. She said, "I know you love your monkey, but you have to respect other people's things. The vase was not yours to remove. And grandma loves you, but she does not need your monkey. She has her own toys. Now, let's put the vase back in the box and the monkey back in your room. And then we will call grandma and say sorry and happy birthday." Lily and Tom nodded and did as their mom said. They learned their lesson and never removed anything from a box again.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big hill with many leaves. They run to the hill and start to make a pile of leaves.
+
+"Let's cover ourselves with leaves!" Lily says. "It will be fun!"
+
+"OK!" Ben says. They lie down on the ground and put leaves on their heads, arms and legs. They giggle and hide.
+
+But then they hear a loud noise. It is a dog. The dog is big and black. It has long hair and sharp teeth. It runs to the hill and sniffs the leaves.
+
+"Who is here?" the dog barks. "I smell someone!"
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They hold their breath and do not move. They hope the dog will go away.
+
+But the dog does not go away. It digs the leaves with its paws. It finds Lily and Ben. It licks their faces.
+
+"Hi, hi, hi!" the dog wags its tail. "You are not leaves! You are kids!"
+
+Lily and Ben scream. They jump up and run away. The dog chases them.
+
+"Help, help, help!" Lily and Ben shout. "The dog is after us!"
+
+They run to their mom and dad. They hug them and tell them what happened.
+
+"Are you OK?" mom asks. "Did the dog hurt you?"
+
+"No, mom," Lily says. "But it scared us. It has a big lung. It can bark very loud."
+
+"And it has long hair," Ben says. "It can cover itself with leaves."
+
+Mom and dad laugh. They pet the dog and calm it down.
+
+"It's OK, kids," dad says. "The dog is friendly. It just wanted to play with you. It likes leaves too."
+
+Lily and Ben look at the dog. The dog looks at them. It wags its tail and smiles.
+
+"Maybe we can play with the dog," Lily says.
+
+"Maybe," Ben says. "But not with leaves. With a ball."
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play with boats. They had a big sail that they used to make a boat out of a box. They took their boat to the park and put it on the pond. They pretended to be pirates and sailors.
+
+"Ahoy, matey!" Ben yelled. "This is our boat and our pond. No one else can play here!"
+
+Lily yelled back. "No, Ben! That is not nice. We have to share with others. Look, there is a girl who wants to play with us. She has a duck toy."
+
+Ben did not want to share. He was bad. He grabbed the duck toy from the girl and threw it in the water. The girl cried. Lily was angry.
+
+"Ben, that is very bad! You made the girl sad. You have to say sorry and give her duck back."
+
+Ben did not say sorry. He did not give the duck back. He laughed. He thought he was funny. He was not funny. He was mean.
+
+Then, something bad happened. A big wind came and blew their sail. Their boat tipped over and fell in the water. Lily and Ben got wet and cold. Their boat was ruined. They had no fun.
+
+The girl saw what happened. She did not laugh. She did not yell. She was good. She helped Lily and Ben get out of the water. She gave them a towel. She said, "Are you okay?"
+
+Lily and Ben felt bad. They realized they were wrong. They said sorry to the girl. They asked her to play with them. The girl smiled. She said, "Okay. But you have to be nice and share."
+
+Lily and Ben learned a lesson. They learned that being bad and mean does not make you happy. They learned that being good and kind makes you happy. They learned that sharing is caring. They learned that friends are better than boats.
+Ben and Sam are brothers. They like to play in the park. But today, Ben is lazy. He does not want to run or swing or slide. He just wants to sit on the bench and eat his snack.
+
+"Come on, Ben, let's play!" Sam says. He runs to the monkey bars and climbs up and down. He is strong and fast.
+
+"No, thank you, Sam. I am tired. You go play," Ben says. He takes a big bite of his cookie. He is full and slow.
+
+Sam is sad. He wants to play with his brother. He thinks of a way to make Ben move. He sees a big ball near the slide. He runs to the ball and picks it up. It is heavy. He carries it to the bench.
+
+"Hey, Ben, catch!" Sam says. He throws the ball at Ben. Ben is not ready. He does not see the ball. The ball hits him on the head. Ben falls off the bench. He drops his cookie. He is hurt and angry.
+
+"Ow! Sam, why did you do that? That was mean!" Ben says. He cries and rubs his head.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. I just wanted you to play with me. You are lazy. You never want to have fun," Sam says. He feels bad. He did not mean to hurt Ben.
+
+Ben and Sam are both unhappy. They do not talk to each other. They sit on the ground and look away. They wish they could be friends again.
+Lily liked to draw with pastels. She had many colors of pastels in a box. She liked to make pictures of flowers, animals and rainbows. She was very happy when she drew.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom and dad. She brought her box of pastels with her. She wanted to draw on the grass. She found a nice spot and opened her box. She took out a big pastel. It was pink, her favorite color. She started to draw a big flower.
+
+"Look, mom, look, dad, I'm drawing a flower!" she said.
+
+"That's very pretty, Lily," her mom said.
+
+"Good job, Lily," her dad said.
+
+Lily smiled and kept drawing. She added more colors to her flower. She used yellow, blue, green and purple. She was very proud of her flower. She wanted to show it to her mom and dad again.
+
+She looked up and saw them sitting on a bench. They were talking and smiling. She wanted to join them. She got up and ran to them. She forgot to take her box of pastels with her.
+
+"Look, mom, look, dad, this is my flower!" she said, holding up her drawing.
+
+"Wow, Lily, that's amazing!" her mom said.
+
+"You're very talented, Lily," her dad said.
+
+They hugged her and praised her. Lily was very happy. She put her drawing in her backpack. She wanted to keep it forever.
+
+They decided to go home. They walked to their car. Lily got in the back seat. She buckled her seat belt. She looked out the window. She saw the park. She saw the grass. She saw her box of pastels.
+
+She gasped. She had left her box of pastels on the grass. She had lost her pastels.
+
+"Mom, dad, wait!" she cried. "My pastels, my pastels, they're still on the grass!"
+
+Her mom and dad looked back. They saw the box of pastels. They realized what had happened.
+
+"Oh, Lily, I'm sorry, we didn't see your pastels," her mom said.
+
+"Don't worry, Lily, we'll go back and get them," her dad said.
+
+They turned the car around. They drove back to the park. They got out of the car. They ran to the grass. They looked for the box of pastels.
+
+But the box of pastels was gone. Someone had taken it. Lily's pastels were gone.
+
+Lily felt very sad. She started to cry. She loved her pastels. She wanted them back.
+
+"Mom, dad, where are my pastels?" she sobbed.
+
+Her mom and dad hugged her. They felt very sorry for her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily, someone must have taken your pastels," her mom said.
+
+"Maybe they needed them more than you, Lily," her dad said.
+
+They tried to comfort her. They told her they would buy her new pastels. They told her they loved her. They told her they were proud of her.
+
+Lily stopped crying. She wiped her tears. She looked at her mom and dad. She smiled a little.
+
+"Thank you, mom, thank you, dad," she said.
+
+She hugged them. She still felt sad, but she also felt loved. She knew she could draw more flowers, animals and rainbows with new pastels. She knew she had the best mom and dad in the world.
+Anna and Ben were playing with their boats in the bathtub. They had fun making waves and splashing water. Anna had a red boat and Ben had a blue boat. They pretended they were sailors on a big adventure.
+
+"Look, my boat is faster than yours!" Ben said.
+
+"No, mine is faster!" Anna said.
+
+They raced their boats across the water. But they did not see the drain was open. The water was going down the drain very fast. Soon, their boats were near the hole.
+
+"Oh no, our boats!" Anna cried.
+
+"Quick, grab them!" Ben said.
+
+They reached for their boats, but it was too late. The boats went down the drain with a gurgle. They were gone.
+
+Anna and Ben were very sad. They liked their boats very much. They forgot to close the drain before they played.
+
+"I'm sorry, Anna. I forgot to check the drain," Ben said.
+
+"I'm sorry, too, Ben. I forgot to remind you," Anna said.
+
+They hugged each other. They were still friends.
+
+"Maybe we can get new boats someday," Ben said.
+
+"Maybe. But we will always remember our old boats," Anna said.
+
+They got out of the bathtub and dried themselves. They put on their pajamas and went to bed. They dreamed of their boats and their adventures. They hoped their boats were having a nice time in the drain.
+Sara liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had long hair and a pretty dress. Sara liked to brush Anna's hair and make her talk.
+
+One day, Sara found a whip in her dad's closet. She did not know what it was, but it looked fun. She took it to her room and played with it. She made Anna ride a horse and used the whip to make the horse go faster. She thought she was very creative.
+
+But the whip was not a toy. It was sharp and hard. It made Anna's hair and dress tear and rip. Sara did not notice until it was too late. She looked at Anna and felt sad. She had ruined her favorite doll.
+
+She ran to her mom and showed her Anna. She said, "Mom, I'm sorry, I played with the whip and I broke Anna. Can you fix her?"
+
+Her mom looked at Anna and shook her head. She said, "Sara, the whip is not a toy. It is for grown-ups. You should not have taken it. I cannot fix Anna. She is too damaged. You have to replace her."
+
+Sara felt very sorry and cried. She said, "But I love Anna. I don't want to replace her. She is my best friend."
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "I know, honey. I love you. But sometimes we make mistakes and we have to learn from them. Maybe we can find another doll that looks like Anna. Or maybe you can find a new friend that you like. You are a creative girl. You can find a way to be happy again."
+Sara was shy. She did not like to talk to new people. She liked to play with her dolls and her teddy bear. She had a pink dress for her doll and a blue hat for her teddy bear.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom. She saw a big slide and a swing. She wanted to try them, but she was scared of the other kids. She sat on a bench with her doll and her teddy bear.
+
+A boy came to the bench. He had a toy car and a police badge. He said, "Hi, I'm Tom. Can I play with you?"
+
+Sara did not answer. She hugged her doll and her teddy bear.
+
+Tom said, "Your doll and your teddy bear are nice. Can I see them?"
+
+Sara shook her head. She did not want to share.
+
+Tom said, "Please, just for a minute. I'll let you play with my car and my police badge. You can be a police and catch bad guys."
+
+Sara looked at the car and the badge. They looked fun. She said, "Okay, but be careful with my doll and my teddy bear."
+
+Tom smiled. He gave her the car and the badge. He took the doll and the teddy bear. He said, "Thank you. I'll be gentle."
+
+He put the pink dress on the teddy bear and the blue hat on the doll. He said, "Look, they are dressed up. They look funny."
+
+Sara did not like that. She said, "No, that's wrong. You have to replace them. The dress is for the doll and the hat is for the teddy bear."
+
+Tom said, "Why? They can wear whatever they want. It's fun to try new things."
+
+Sara said, "No, it's not. It's silly. Give me back my doll and my teddy bear. Now!"
+
+Tom said, "No, I like them. They are mine now."
+
+Sara got angry. She said, "No, they are not. They are mine. Give them back or I'll call the police."
+
+Tom said, "You can't call the police. You have my police badge. Ha ha."
+
+Sara started to cry. She said, "Mom, help me. He took my doll and my teddy bear."
+
+Mom heard Sara. She came to the bench. She said, "What's going on here?"
+
+Sara said, "He took my doll and my teddy bear and he changed their clothes and he won't give them back."
+
+Mom said, "That's not nice. Tom, you have to give back Sara's doll and her teddy bear. And you have to replace their clothes. They belong to Sara."
+
+Tom said, "But I like them. They are fun."
+
+Mom said, "You can't keep them. They are not yours. You have to share and be polite. How would you feel if someone took your car and your badge?"
+
+Tom thought for a moment. He said, "I would feel sad and mad."
+
+Mom said, "Exactly. So you have to give them back and say sorry."
+
+Tom said, "Okay, I'm sorry. Here are your doll and your teddy bear. And here are their clothes. I'll replace them."
+
+He gave back the doll and the teddy bear and their clothes. He put the dress on the doll and the hat on the teddy bear. He said, "There, they look normal again."
+
+Sara said, "Thank you. And here are your car and your badge. I'll replace them."
+
+She gave back the car and the badge. She said, "There, they look cool again."
+
+Tom said, "Thank you. You're welcome."
+
+Mom said, "That's very good. You both said sorry and replaced the toys. Now you can be friends and play together."
+
+Sara and Tom looked at each other. They smiled. They said, "Okay, let's play."
+
+They played with the car and the badge and the doll and the teddy bear. They had fun. They were not shy anymore.
+Lily loved blueberries. She liked to eat them with milk and honey. She liked to pick them from the bush in the garden. She liked to make them into pies and jams.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big basket of blueberries on the kitchen table. She wanted to eat some, but her mom said no. She said they were for the guests who were coming for dinner. She said Lily had to wait until later.
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She thought her mom was mean. She waited until her mom went to the bathroom. Then she sneaked into the kitchen and grabbed a handful of blueberries. She stuffed them into her mouth and ran to her room.
+
+But Lily did not know that her mom had seen her. Her mom followed her to her room and knocked on the door. She opened it and saw Lily with blue stains on her lips and fingers.
+
+"Lily, what did you do?" her mom asked.
+
+Lily tried to hide the blueberries under her pillow. She said nothing.
+
+"Lily, you know you are not supposed to eat the blueberries. They are for the guests. You were very naughty. You have to be punished," her mom said.
+
+Lily felt scared and sorry. She knew she had done a bad thing. She started to cry.
+
+"Please, mom, don't punish me. I'm sorry. I won't do it again. I love you," she said.
+
+Her mom looked at her and sighed. She felt sorry for Lily too. She loved her very much. She decided to be gentle with her.
+
+"Lily, I love you too. But you have to learn to listen and obey. You can't always have what you want. You have to share and be polite. You have to be a good girl. Do you understand?" she said.
+
+Lily nodded. She understood. She hugged her mom and said sorry again.
+
+Her mom hugged her back and said it was okay. She said she would not punish her this time. But she said she had to do something to make up for her mistake. She said she had to help her make a new basket of blueberries for the guests. She said she had to say sorry to the guests too.
+
+Lily agreed. She said she would help and say sorry. She said she would be a good girl. She said she liked blueberries, but she liked her mom more.
+Sara and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to water the flowers with the hose. They also liked to spray each other and laugh.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can make a rainbow!" Sara said, holding the hose up to the sun.
+
+"Wow, that's pretty!" Lily said, admiring the colors.
+
+But then, Sara turned the hose on Lily and soaked her. Lily gasped and got wet.
+
+"Hey, that's not fair!" Lily said, trying to dodge the water. "You soaked my blouse!"
+
+Sara giggled and said, "Sorry, Lily, I was just having fun. You can soak me back if you want."
+
+Lily smiled and grabbed the hose from Sara. She sprayed Sara and soaked her too. Sara squealed and got wet.
+
+"Ha, ha, now we're even!" Lily said, feeling happy.
+
+They both laughed and hugged. They didn't mind being wet. They liked to play in the water.
+
+But then, they heard their mom calling them.
+
+"Girls, time to come inside and have lunch!" Mom said, looking at them.
+
+"Oh, no, we're in trouble!" Sara said, looking at her wet clothes.
+
+"Quick, let's go inside and change!" Lily said, running to the house.
+
+They ran inside, but they were too slow. Mom saw them and shook her head.
+
+"Girls, what have you done? You're soaked!" Mom said, sounding cross.
+
+"Sorry, Mom, we were playing with the hose and we soaked each other," Sara said, feeling sorry.
+
+"It was fun, Mom, we made a rainbow and we laughed," Lily said, feeling sorry too.
+
+Mom sighed and said, "I'm glad you had fun, but you can't play with the hose like that. You'll catch a cold and ruin your clothes. Next time, ask me first, okay?"
+
+"Okay, Mom, we're sorry," Sara and Lily said, nodding.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "It's okay, I love you. Now, go and change into dry clothes and then come and have lunch. And no more soaking, okay?"
+
+"Okay, Mom, we love you too," Sara and Lily said, hugging her.
+
+They went and changed into dry clothes and then came and had lunch. They ate their sandwiches and drank their juice. They were still happy, even though they were wet. They liked to play in the garden. They liked to water the flowers. They liked to spray each other. They liked to make rainbows. They liked to laugh. They were best friends.
+Lily and Max were playing with their toy cars on the floor. They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving fast. Lily had a red car and Max had a blue car.
+
+"Look, my car is faster than yours!" Lily said. She pushed her car hard and it zoomed past Max's car.
+
+"No, my car is faster!" Max said. He pushed his car harder and it caught up with Lily's car. They pushed their cars back and forth, trying to win the race.
+
+Suddenly, they saw a big book on the shelf. It had a picture of a witch and a cat on the cover. It looked very interesting.
+
+"Let's read that book!" Lily said. She got up and reached for the book.
+
+"Wait, I want to read it too!" Max said. He got up and followed Lily.
+
+They pulled the book from the shelf and opened it. It had many words and pictures inside. Some of the words were very long and strange.
+
+"What are these words?" Lily asked. She pointed at a word that said "abracadabra".
+
+"I don't know. Maybe they are spells," Max said. He pointed at another word that said "hocus-pocus".
+
+"Spells? What are spells?" Lily asked.
+
+"Spells are words that make magic happen," Max said. He remembered seeing a movie where a witch said spells and made things fly or change.
+
+"Wow, that's cool! Can we say spells and make magic too?" Lily asked.
+
+"Maybe. Let's try it," Max said.
+
+They looked at the book and tried to say the words they saw. They said them loud and clear, hoping something would happen.
+
+"Abracadabra! Hocus-pocus! Alakazam!" they said.
+
+But nothing happened. The book did not glow or move. The toy cars did not fly or change. The room was the same as before.
+
+"Maybe the book is fake," Lily said. She felt disappointed.
+
+"Maybe the spells are fake," Max said. He felt sad.
+
+They closed the book and put it back on the shelf. They went back to their toy cars and played with them again.
+
+They decided they liked their cars better than the book. They did not need spells to have fun. They had each other and their imagination.
+Tom and Lily are playing in the garden. They have a big bucket of water and some cups. They like to pour water from the cups into the bucket and make splashes.
+
+"Look, I can fill my cup to the top!" Lily says. She holds her cup under the tap and turns it on. Water comes out and fills her cup.
+
+"Me too!" Tom says. He tries to do the same, but the tap is too high for him. He jumps and stretches, but he cannot reach the tap. He feels sad and angry.
+
+"Hey, that's not fair!" he shouts. "You are too tall! Let me use the tap!"
+
+"No, it's my turn!" Lily says. "You have to wait!"
+
+They start to fight over the tap. They pull and push each other. They spill water everywhere. They make a big mess.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" their mom says. She comes out and sees the water and the mud. She is not happy. "What are you doing? You are wasting water and making a mess! You have to wash up and clean up right now!"
+
+She turns off the tap and takes the bucket and the cups. She tells Tom and Lily to follow her to the bathroom. She fills the sink with water and soap. She gives them each a towel and a brush.
+
+"Now, wash your hands and your faces," she says. "And then, help me wash the bucket and the cups. And then, say sorry to each other. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They feel sorry for fighting. They wash up and clean up. They hug each other and say sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Tom says. "You can use the tap next time."
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom," Lily says. "You can use my cup next time."
+
+They smile and kiss. Their mom smiles too. She is proud of them. She hugs them and says, "Good job, my loves. Now, let's go and have some cookies."
+Lily and Max were at the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. Sometimes they saw fish and crabs and shells. They were very happy.
+
+One day, they saw something big and gray in the water. It was a whale! The whale was very big and had a hole on its head. It made a loud sound and sprayed water in the air. Lily and Max were amazed. They wanted to see the whale closer.
+
+They asked their mom and dad if they could go near the whale. Their mom and dad said no. They said the whale was too big and too far and it could be dangerous. They said they had to stay with them and not wander away.
+
+But Lily and Max did not listen. They were curious and brave. They waited until their mom and dad were busy with their bags and towels. Then they ran to the water and swam towards the whale.
+
+The whale saw them and came closer. It was very friendly and gentle. It let them touch its skin and play with its tail. It made funny noises and smiled at them. Lily and Max thought the whale was very attractive and nice. They forgot about their mom and dad.
+
+Their mom and dad saw them and were very scared. They shouted and waved at them. They told them to come back. They were afraid the whale would hurt them or take them away.
+
+Lily and Max heard them and realized they were in trouble. They said goodbye to the whale and swam back to the shore. The whale followed them and waved its tail. It said goodbye too.
+
+Their mom and dad hugged them and scolded them. They said they were very naughty and foolish. They said they could have been lost or hurt. They said they should never wander away from them again.
+
+Lily and Max said they were sorry. They said they just wanted to see the whale. They said the whale was very attractive and nice. They said they would not wander away again.
+
+Their mom and dad forgave them and kissed them. They said they loved them very much. They said they were glad they were safe. They said they could see the whale from the beach, but not too close.
+
+Lily and Max nodded and smiled. They said they loved them too. They said they were glad they saw the whale. They said they would not forget the whale.
+
+They all went back to their spot and watched the whale from a distance. The whale stayed for a while and then swam away. It made a loud sound and sprayed water in the air. It said goodbye one more time.
+
+Lily and Max waved and said goodbye too. They said they hoped to see the whale again. They said they would always remember the whale. They said the whale was their friend.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the snow. They wanted to make an igloo, like the ones they saw in a book. They rolled big balls of snow and stacked them on top of each other. They left a hole for the door.
+
+"Look, we made an igloo!" Tom said. "Let's go inside and pretend we are explorers."
+
+They crawled inside the igloo and felt cozy and warm. They heard a noise outside. They peeked through the door and saw a big white bear. It had black eyes and a black nose. It was sniffing the snow.
+
+"Is it a polar bear?" Lily whispered. "Is it dangerous?"
+
+Tom shook his head. "No, it's not a polar bear. It's a snowman bear. It's harmless. It just wants to play with us."
+
+He crawled out of the igloo and waved at the bear. The bear wagged its tail and licked Tom's face. Tom laughed and hugged the bear.
+
+"Come on, Lily, don't be scared. It's friendly. Let's play with the bear."
+
+Lily crawled out of the igloo and joined Tom and the bear. They rolled in the snow and threw snowballs at each other. They had fun.
+
+"Let's clap for the bear. He's a good bear." Tom said.
+
+They clapped their hands and cheered for the bear. The bear clapped its paws and barked happily. They were all friends.
+Tim and Sue were friends who liked to play near the water. They saw a big boat in the harbor and wanted to go inside. They climbed over the fence and ran to the boat.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Tim said. "It has a lot of rooms and things to see. Maybe we can find some treasure."
+
+"Or some food," Sue said. "I'm hungry. Maybe the boat can provide us some snacks."
+
+They went into the boat and explored the rooms. They found some cans and bottles, but they did not know how to open them. They also found some clothes and toys, but they were wet and dirty. They did not like them.
+
+"Let's go to the top," Tim said. "Maybe we can see the whole harbor from there."
+
+They climbed the stairs and reached the deck. They saw the water and the sky and the other boats. They also saw a man who was angry.
+
+"Hey, you!" the man shouted. "What are you doing here? This is my boat. You are not allowed here. Get off now!"
+
+Tim and Sue were scared. They tried to run away, but the man was faster. He grabbed them and threw them into the water. They splashed and screamed, but no one heard them. The water was cold and wet and deep. They could not swim. They sank and drowned. The man did not care. He went back to his boat and locked the door. The end.
+Ben and Mia were in the car with Mom. They were going to the park to play. But there was a lot of traffic on the road. The cars were not moving. Ben and Mia were bored and hungry.
+
+Mom said, "Sorry, kids. There was an accident. A big truck and a small car crashed. They broke each other. The police and the ambulance are here to help. We have to wait until they clear the road."
+
+Ben and Mia looked out the window. They saw the broken truck and the broken car. They saw the police and the ambulance. They saw some people who were hurt and some people who were not. They felt sad and scared.
+
+Then they saw another car. It was behind them. It was honking and yelling. It was trying to push through the traffic. It was not listening to the police. It was ignorant.
+
+Mom said, "That car is very rude and dangerous. It does not care about the accident or the people. It only cares about itself. It should not do that. It could cause another accident. It could break more things and hurt more people."
+
+Ben and Mia agreed. They did not like the ignorant car. They wished it would stop and be quiet. They wished it would be nice and patient. They wished it would go away.
+
+They hoped the traffic would end soon. They hoped the accident would be fixed. They hoped the people would be okay. They hoped they would get to the park and play. They hoped they would have fun.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were a queen and a king. Sara wore a crown made of flowers and Ben had a stick for a sword.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a big snail!" Sara said, holding the slimy creature in her hand. "He can be our pet. He can stay with us in our castle."
+
+Ben wrinkled his nose. "Ew, Sara, snails are smelly. And they are slow and boring. I don't want a snail for a pet. I want a dragon or a lion. They are strong and fast and brave."
+
+Sara frowned. "Snails are not smelly. They are cute and shiny. And they are smart and friendly. They can make trails and hide in their shells. I like snails. You are mean, Ben."
+
+Ben shook his head. "No, I'm not mean. I'm the king. And I say we don't need a snail. We need a better pet. Come on, Sara, let's go find one."
+
+He dropped his stick and ran away, leaving Sara alone with the snail. Sara felt sad and angry. She hugged the snail and said, "Don't worry, snail. You can stay with me. I'm the queen. And I say you are the best pet ever."
+Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play with blocks and puzzles. They have many blocks and puzzles in their room. One day, they want to make a big tower with blocks. They are excited to see how high they can build it.
+
+They start to put blocks on top of each other. They use different colors and shapes. They try to make the tower strong and pretty. They talk to each other as they build.
+
+"Look, Mia, I have a red block. It is a square. Where should I put it?" Ben asks.
+
+"Put it here, Ben, next to the blue block. It is a circle. They look nice together," Mia says.
+
+"Okay, Mia, I will do that. How about this yellow block? It is a triangle. Do you have a place for it?" Ben says.
+
+"Yes, Ben, I do. Put it on top of the green block. It is a rectangle. They make a roof for the tower," Mia says.
+
+They keep building the tower. They use all the blocks they have. The tower is very high. It reaches the ceiling. They are proud of their work. They use their brains to manage the blocks.
+
+"Wow, Ben, we did it! We made a big tower with blocks. It is the best tower ever!" Mia says.
+
+"Yes, Mia, we did it! We are good builders. We have fun with blocks. Do you want to make a puzzle now?" Ben says.
+
+"Sure, Ben, I do. Let's make a puzzle with animals. I like animals. Do you?" Mia says.
+
+"Yes, Mia, I do. I like dogs and cats and birds and fish. What do you like?" Ben says.
+
+They go to their shelf and pick a puzzle with animals. They sit on the floor and start to fit the pieces together. They are happy and excited. They have more fun with puzzles.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run, jump and slide on the grass and the swings. They saw a big tree with many leaves. They wanted to discover what was under the tree.
+
+They ran to the tree and looked around. They saw a big hole in the ground. They wondered what was inside the hole. They heard a noise. It sounded like a growl.
+
+"Hello, is anyone there?" Tim asked in a polite voice. He was not afraid. He was curious.
+
+A big shadow came out of the hole. It was a bear. The bear was angry. It did not like visitors. It roared at Tim and Lily.
+
+"Run, Lily, run!" Tim shouted. He grabbed Lily's hand and tried to run away. But the bear was faster. It caught them with its big paws and sharp teeth. It dragged them into the hole.
+
+No one heard their screams. No one saw them again. The bear had a big meal. The end.
+Sam and Lily were playing with their dolls. Sam had a new doll that looked like a princess. Lily had an old doll that looked like a nurse. She had a stitch on her arm where the cloth was torn.
+
+"Your doll is not pretty," Sam said. "She has a stitch and her dress is dirty."
+
+Lily felt sad. She loved her doll very much. She had found her in a box at the garage sale. She had given her a name and a hug.
+
+"My doll is very tough," Lily said. "She helps people who are sick and hurt. She does not care about being pretty. She cares about being kind."
+
+Sam stared at Lily's doll. He saw the stitch on her arm and the dirt on her dress. He also saw the smile on her face and the badge on her chest. He felt sorry for being mean.
+
+"Maybe you are right," Sam said. "Your doll is tough and kind. Can we play together?"
+
+Lily smiled and nodded. She and Sam played with their dolls. They pretended they were in a hospital and helped many patients. They had fun and learned to be friends.
+Tom and Lily went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and birds. They liked to watch them and learn their names. Mom was happy to explain things to them.
+
+When they came to the big tank of water, they saw a strange animal with eight arms. It was an octopus. Tom and Lily had never seen one before. They were curious and asked mom what it was.
+
+"An octopus is a sea animal that can change its color and shape. It can also squirt ink to escape from danger. It has a big head and a beak to eat fish and crabs. It is very smart and can solve puzzles," mom explained.
+
+Tom and Lily were amazed by the octopus. They wanted to touch it and see how it felt. They saw a sign that said "Do not tap the glass". But they were careless and did not listen. They tapped the glass with their fingers to get the octopus's attention.
+
+The octopus did not like that. It felt annoyed and scared. It squirted a cloud of ink into the water and hid behind a rock. Tom and Lily could not see it anymore. They were disappointed and sad.
+
+Mom saw what they did and was not happy. She scolded them and told them to apologize. "You should not tap the glass. You scared the octopus and made it unhappy. You should be gentle and respectful to the animals. They have feelings too," mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry and ashamed. They said sorry to the octopus and to mom. They promised to be more careful and polite next time. Mom hugged them and forgave them. She hoped they learned their lesson.
+Tim and Mia like to play in the mud. They make shapes with their hands and feet. They make a big crocodile with a long tail and sharp teeth. They are very proud of their crocodile.
+
+"Look at our crocodile!" Tim says. "He is so big and scary!"
+
+"Yes, he is!" Mia says. "But he is also very dirty. He needs a bath."
+
+They run to the hose and fill a bucket with water. They splash the water on the crocodile. They try to wash off the mud.
+
+But the water makes the mud softer and wetter. The crocodile starts to fall apart. His tail breaks off. His teeth fall out. His eyes disappear.
+
+"Oh no!" Tim says. "Our crocodile is gone!"
+
+Mia starts to cry. She hugs Tim. "We worked so hard to make him!"
+
+They look at the mess in the mud. They see a small piece of the crocodile's head. It still has a smile.
+
+"Maybe he is not gone," Mia says. "Maybe he is just hiding."
+
+They smile at each other. They pick up the piece of the crocodile's head. They decide to make him again. But this time, they will not give him a bath.
+Lily liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Daisy. Daisy had a cute dress, long hair and a smile. Lily took Daisy everywhere she went.
+
+One day, Lily and her mom went to the park. Lily brought Daisy with her. She played on the swings, the slide and the sandbox. She had fun with Daisy. But then, she saw something new. It was a big red truck with a loud siren. It was a fireman truck!
+
+Lily ran to the truck. She wanted to see it. She saw a fireman in a yellow suit and a helmet. He was holding a hose. He smiled at Lily.
+
+"Hello, little girl. Do you like my truck?" he asked.
+
+"Yes, I do. It is very big and red. Can I see it?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. But be careful, it is not a toy. It is for putting out fires," he said.
+
+He let Lily climb on the truck. She saw the lights, the buttons and the ladder. She was amazed. She forgot about Daisy. She left Daisy on the grass.
+
+The fireman showed Lily how the hose worked. He sprayed some water on a tree. Lily laughed. She wanted to try it too. She held the hose with the fireman. They sprayed some water on a flower. It was fun.
+
+But then, Lily heard a cry. She turned around. She saw a boy holding Daisy. He was pulling her hair and ripping her dress. He was mean.
+
+"Hey, that is my doll! Give it back!" Lily shouted.
+
+The boy looked at Lily. He smirked. He threw Daisy on the ground. He stepped on her. He broke her.
+
+Lily ran to Daisy. She picked her up. She saw her torn dress, her loose hair and her cracked smile. She felt sad. She cried.
+
+The fireman saw what happened. He felt sorry for Lily. He walked to her. He knelt down.
+
+"I'm sorry, little girl. That boy was very rude. He should not have done that to your doll," he said.
+
+He took out something from his pocket. It was a small fireman doll. It had a yellow suit, a helmet and a hose. It was cute.
+
+"Here, I want to give you this. It is a fireman doll. He is my friend. He can help you put out fires. He can replace your broken doll," he said.
+
+He handed the fireman doll to Lily. Lily looked at it. She smiled. She liked it. She hugged it.
+
+"Thank you, fireman. You are very nice. I like your fireman doll. He is cute. He can be my new friend," she said.
+
+She looked at Daisy. She felt sorry for her. She put her next to the fireman doll.
+
+"But I still love Daisy. She was my first friend. She can be his friend too," she said.
+
+The fireman nodded. He smiled.
+
+"That is very sweet of you, little girl. You are very kind. You can keep both dolls. They can both be your friends. And you can be my friend too," he said.
+
+He gave Lily a high-five. Lily giggled. She felt happy.
+
+She learned a lesson. She learned that she should not forget her old friends when she sees something new. She learned that she should be grateful for what she has. She learned that she should be nice to others. She learned that firemen are good people. She learned that friends can come in different shapes and sizes. She learned that friends can make her happy.
+Lily and Max were at the beach with their mom and dad. They had fun playing in the sand, making castles and digging holes. They also splashed in the water, but not too deep, because the sea was big and loud.
+
+After a while, mom said, "It's time for a nap, kids. You need to rest after playing so much." Lily and Max did not want to nap. They wanted to keep playing. They said, "No, mom, no nap! More play!"
+
+Mom was upset. She said, "You have to nap, or you will be too tired and cranky later. Come on, let's go to the shade and lie down on the blanket." She took Lily and Max by the hand and led them to a spot under a palm tree. She gave them each a bottle of juice and a teddy bear. She said, "Close your eyes and listen to the sea. It will help you fall asleep."
+
+Lily and Max tried to close their eyes, but they still wanted to play. They whispered to each other, "Let's sneak away and play some more. Mom won't notice." They got up quietly and tiptoed away from the blanket. They ran back to the sand and the water.
+
+But mom did notice. She opened her eyes and saw that Lily and Max were gone. She was very upset. She got up and looked for them. She saw them running and laughing by the sea. She shouted, "Lily! Max! Come back here right now! You are in big trouble!"
+
+Lily and Max heard mom's voice and stopped. They looked at mom and saw that she was angry. They felt sorry. They ran back to mom and said, "We're sorry, mom. We just wanted to play. Please don't be upset."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I'm glad you're safe, but you have to listen to me. Napping is important for you. It helps you grow and learn and have fun. Next time, please do what I say, OK?" Lily and Max nodded and said, "OK, mom. We love you." Mom said, "I love you too. Now, let's go back to the blanket and nap. Maybe we can play some more later, if you're good." Lily and Max agreed and followed mom to the blanket. They lay down and closed their eyes. They listened to the sea and fell asleep.
+Tim liked to play with his toy cars. He had many cars of different colors and sizes. He kept them in a big box in his room. He was very organized. He always put his cars back in the box when he was done playing.
+
+One day, Tim found a new car in his box. It was red and shiny and had a big sticker on it. It said "Fire Truck". Tim was very happy. He took the fire truck out of the box and made siren noises. He pretended to drive the fire truck around his room and put out fires.
+
+But then, something bad happened. The fire truck stopped moving. Tim pushed the button, but nothing happened. He looked at the fire truck and saw that the wheel was broken. He felt sad. He loved his fire truck. He wanted to fix it.
+
+He remembered that his dad was a mechanic. He fixed cars and trucks for real. He knew how to make them work again. Tim had an idea. He decided to send his fire truck to his dad. He found a big envelope and put the fire truck inside. He wrote "To Dad" on the envelope. He asked his mom to help him put a stamp on it. He said "Mom, can you please send this to dad? He can fix my fire truck."
+
+Mom smiled and hugged Tim. She said "Sure, honey. I will send this to dad. He will be very happy to see your fire truck. He will fix it and send it back to you. Don't worry. You will play with your fire truck again soon." Tim felt better. He thanked his mom and gave her a kiss. He hoped his dad would get his fire truck soon. He missed his fire truck.

+
+Lily was very happy with her new toy. She named it Mimi and gave it a hug. She wanted to show Mimi to her mom and dad, so she picked it up and ran to the living room. But Mimi was heavy, and Lily was not careful. She did not see the water on the floor, and she slipped and fell.
+
+"Ouch!" Lily cried. She dropped Mimi and hurt her knee. She started to cry. Her mom and dad heard her and came to see what happened.
+
+"What's wrong, Lily?" her mom asked. She saw the water and the toy mouse on the floor. She picked up Lily and gave her a kiss.
+

+
+"Mimi is fine, Lily. She is a strong mouse. But you have to be careful when you run with heavy things. And you have to watch out for water on the floor. It can make you slip and hurt yourself." her dad said. He picked up Mimi and turned her on. Mimi made a squeak and moved her tail.
+
+"See? Mimi is happy to see you. She is a good toy. But you have to play with her gently and safely. Can you do that, Lily?" her dad asked.
+
+"Yes, Daddy. I can do that. I'm sorry I slipped and made a mess. I love Mimi. Can I play with her now?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course you can, Lily. But first, let's clean up the water and put a band-aid on your knee. Then you can play with Mimi and your other toys. How does that sound?" her mom asked.
+
+"That sounds good, Mommy. Thank you. I love you and Daddy. And I love Mimi." Lily said. She smiled and hugged her mom and dad. Then she took Mimi and went back to her room. She played with Mimi and her other toys, and she was careful not to slip and fall again.

+
+"Can I have some of your blocks, Sara?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, they are mine. You have enough," Sara said. She was ignorant. She did not like to share.
+
+Ben was sad. He looked around and saw a big gray box. He wondered what was inside. Maybe there were more blocks or toys or books. He wanted to see.
+
+He walked to the box and tried to open it. But it was too heavy. He could not lift it. He pushed and pulled, but it did not move.

+
+But when they got to the park, it started to rain. The grass was wet and the swings were wet and the slide was wet. Lily and Ben did not like to get wet. They saw a big tent near the park. It had a sign that said "Music Show". They ran to the tent to stay dry.
+
+Inside the tent, there were many instruments. There were guitars and drums and flutes and violins. And there was a big piano in the corner. Lily's eyes lit up when she saw the piano. She wanted to play it and make music. She ran to the piano and sat on the bench.
+
+But Ben did not like the piano. He thought it was boring and loud. He wanted to play with the cars and trucks that were on a table near the tent. He ran to the table and picked up a red car.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's play with the cars and trucks. They are more fun than the piano," Ben said.
+
+"No, Ben, I want to play the piano. It is more beautiful than the cars and trucks," Lily said.
+
+They both pulled on each other's arms, trying to make the other one choose their thing. They started to argue and shout.
+
+"Stop, stop, stop!" a voice said. It was the man who owned the tent and the instruments. He was not happy to see Lily and Ben fighting. He said, "You can't play with my things without asking. And you can't make noise and disturb the music show. You have to choose. Either you stay here and watch the show quietly, or you go back to the park and play with your own things."
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They did not want to make the man angry. They did not want to miss the music show. But they also did not want to give up their things.
+
+They thought for a moment. Then they had an idea. They whispered to each other and nodded.
+
+They went to the man and said, "We are sorry for fighting and making noise. We have made a choice. We will stay here and watch the show quietly. But can we also play with your things after the show? Lily can play the piano and Ben can play the cars and trucks. And we can share and take turns. Is that okay?"
+
+The man smiled and said, "That is a very good choice. I am glad you are willing to share and take turns. You can play with my things after the show, but you have to be careful and respectful. And you have to listen to the music and learn something new. Deal?"
+
+Lily and Ben said, "Deal!" They hugged each other and sat down on the floor. They watched the music show and clapped their hands. They saw the man play the guitar and the drums and the flute and the violin. And they saw a lady play the piano. She played so well that Lily and Ben felt like they were in a dream.
+
+After the show, the man and the lady let Lily and Ben play with their things. Lily played the piano and Ben played the cars and trucks. They shared and took turns and had fun. They also learned some new songs and sounds. They thanked the man and the lady for letting them play.
+
+They went back to their mom, who was waiting for them with the picnic basket. They told her about the music show and the tent and the instruments. They said they had made a good choice and had a great time.
+
+Their mom was proud of them and said, "You are very smart and kind twins. I am happy you enjoyed the music show and the tent and the instruments. And I am happy you learned to share and take turns. Now let's have our picnic and eat some sandwiches and cookies."
+
+Lily and Ben said, "Yes, please!" They ate their sandwiches and cookies and drank their juice. They were not wet anymore. They were full and happy. They smiled and hugged their mom. They had a wonderful day.
+Lily and Max liked to play in the garage. They had many toys and boxes and things to look at. One day, they decided to search for something new and fun.
+
+They opened a big box and found some old clothes and hats. They tried them on and pretended to be different people. Lily was a queen and Max was a pirate. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Then they saw a small box in the corner. It was dusty and ordinary. They wondered what was inside. They opened it and saw a shiny thing. It was a necklace with a big blue stone.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Max said. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Can I try it on?" Lily asked.
+
+"OK, but be careful. It might be magic," Max said.
+
+Lily put the necklace around her neck. She felt a strange feeling. She looked at Max and saw that he was not a pirate anymore. He was a frog!
+
+"Max, what happened?" Lily said.
+
+"Ribbit, ribbit!" Max said.
+
+Lily was scared. She took off the necklace and put it back in the box. Max turned back into a boy.
+
+"That was not fun. That was scary!" Lily said.
+
+"I know. Let's never play with that necklace again," Max said.
+
+They ran out of the garage and hugged their mom. They told her what happened. She smiled and said it was just their imagination. But she looked at the garage and wondered what else was hidden there.
+Lily liked to play in her room at night. She had a lamp that could glow different colors. She could change the color by pressing a button. She liked to make the lamp glow purple, because it was her favorite color.
+
+One night, she heard a knock on her window. She looked and saw a bird. The bird was purple too. It had shiny feathers that glowed in the dark. Lily opened the window and said hello to the bird.
+
+"Hello, little girl," the bird said. "I saw your lamp and I wanted to see it. It is very pretty, just like you."
+
+"Thank you, bird," Lily said. "Do you want to come in and play with me?"
+
+"Yes, please," the bird said. "But only for a little while. I have to go back to my nest soon."
+
+Lily and the bird played with her toys and books. They had fun and laughed a lot. The bird liked the lamp and tried to press the button. The lamp glowed red, then blue, then green, then yellow. Lily and the bird liked all the colors, but they liked purple the best.
+
+After a while, the bird said, "I have to go now, Lily. Thank you for being my friend."
+
+"Bye, bird," Lily said. "Will you come back tomorrow?"
+
+"Maybe," the bird said. "If you make your lamp glow purple, I will see it and come to visit you."
+
+Lily smiled and nodded. She hugged the bird and said goodbye. She closed the window and turned off the lamp. She went to bed and dreamed of the purple bird. She hoped to see it again.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play with toys in Sue's room. But Sue's room is very messy. There are toys everywhere. Sue's mom says they have to organize the toys before they can go out.
+
+"Come on, Sue, let's organize the toys. It will be fun!" Tom says.
+
+"No, I don't want to. It is hard and boring. I want to go out now!" Sue says. She is lazy.
+
+"But if we don't organize the toys, your mom will be angry. And we can't go out. Don't you want to go to the park and play on the swings?" Tom says.
+
+"I do, but I don't want to organize the toys. You do it. I will watch." Sue says. She lies on her bed and puts a pillow on her head.
+
+Tom is sad and angry. He thinks Sue is not a good friend. He decides to organize the toys by himself. He puts the cars in one box, the dolls in another box, the books on the shelf, and the blocks in a bag. He works hard and fast. He is not lazy.
+
+When he is done, he looks at Sue. She is still lying on her bed with a pillow on her head. She is not watching. She is sleeping.
+
+Tom shakes his head. He goes to Sue's mom and tells her he is done. Sue's mom is happy and proud of Tom. She says he can go to the park and play on the swings. She says she will wake up Sue and make her organize the toys by herself.
+
+Tom smiles and says thank you. He goes to the park and plays on the swings. He has fun. He hopes Sue will learn to be a better friend. He is not lazy. He is organized.
+Tom was a boy who liked to have original hair. He did not want to look like other boys. He wanted to have hair that was long and curly, or short and spiky, or blue and green. He liked to go to the barber and ask for different hair every time.
+
+One day, he went to the barber with his mom. He saw a new barber who had a big smile and a funny hat. He said hello to Tom and his mom.
+
+"Welcome to my shop," he said. "I am Bob, the barber. What kind of hair do you want today?"
+
+Tom looked at the pictures on the wall. He saw hair that was straight and smooth, or wavy and shiny, or brown and black. He did not like any of them. He wanted something original.
+
+He pointed to his hat and said, "I want hair like your hat."
+
+Bob laughed and said, "You want hair like my hat? That is very original. My hat is made of feathers and flowers. It is very colorful and soft. Are you sure you want hair like that?"
+
+Tom nodded and said, "Yes, please. I want hair like your hat."
+
+Bob said, "Okay, then. Let's try it. Sit down on this chair and I will make your hair like my hat."
+
+Tom sat down on the chair and Bob put a cape around him. He took off his hat and put it on Tom's head. He took some scissors and some glue and some feathers and some flowers. He cut and glued and stuck them on Tom's hair. He made Tom's hair like his hat.
+
+When he was done, he showed Tom a mirror and said, "Look, Tom. Your hair is like my hat. It is very original. Do you like it?"
+
+Tom looked at the mirror and smiled. He liked his hair very much. It was very original. He said, "Thank you, Bob. I love my hair. It is like your hat."
+
+Bob said, "You're welcome, Tom. I'm glad you like it. You are a very original boy. Come back anytime you want a new hair."
+
+Tom and his mom said goodbye to Bob and left the shop. Tom was very happy with his original hair. He showed it to everyone he met. Everyone said he had the most original hair they had ever seen. Tom was proud of his hair and of Bob, the barber.
+Lily and Tom are twins. They like to play with their toys. They have many toys: dolls, cars, blocks, books and more. They have a big shelf to keep their toys.
+
+One day, Mom says, "Lily and Tom, you have too many toys. You need to share some with other kids who have no toys. You can choose some toys to give away and some to keep. Then you can display your toys on the shelf nicely."
+
+Lily and Tom think hard. They love all their toys, but they also want to be kind. They pick some toys to give away and some to keep. They put the toys they want to keep on the shelf. They try to display them nicely, but they have too many. The shelf is full and some toys fall down.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily says. "We still have too many toys. How can we display them nicely?"
+
+Tom has an idea. He says, "We can make two rows. One row for you and one row for me. Then we can see all our toys and they won't fall down."
+
+Lily likes Tom's idea. They make two rows of toys on the shelf. They display them nicely. They are happy with their toys.
+
+Mom comes to see their shelf. She says, "Wow, Lily and Tom, you did a great job. You display your toys nicely. And you are very generous to share some toys with other kids. I am proud of you."
+
+Lily and Tom smile. They hug Mom. They are happy and proud too.
+
+They play with their toys for a while. Then they feel sleepy. They put their toys away and go to bed. They have a big blanket to keep them warm. They cuddle with each other. They are not hot. They are not cold. They are just right. They fall asleep. They have sweet dreams.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play outside in the field. The field had many flowers and bugs and birds. Lily and Ben liked to skip in the field and make up songs.
+
+One day, Lily had a new idea. She wanted to make a flower crown. She said to Ben, "Let's pick some flowers and make a crown. I will be the queen and you will be the king." Ben nodded and smiled. He liked to make things with Lily.
+
+They started to pick some flowers. Lily was very organized. She picked only the yellow ones and put them in a pile. She said, "These are for my crown. They are the prettiest." Ben was not very organized. He picked all kinds of flowers and put them in a big mess. He said, "These are for my crown. They are the most fun."
+
+Lily looked at Ben's flowers and frowned. She said, "No, no, no. You can't use those. They are ugly and dirty and they don't match. You have to use the yellow ones like me." Ben looked at Lily's flowers and shook his head. He said, "No, no, no. You can't use those. They are boring and plain and they all look the same. You have to use the colorful ones like me."
+
+They started to argue. They raised their voices and pulled each other's flowers. They forgot to skip and sing. They forgot to be friends.
+
+A bird flew over the field and saw them. The bird felt sad. It liked to hear them skip and sing. It wanted to help them. It flew down and landed on a flower. It said, "Tweet, tweet, tweet. Why are you fighting? You are both right. All flowers are beautiful and you can make any crown you want. But you have to share and be nice. That's what friends do. Tweet, tweet, tweet."
+
+Lily and Ben stopped and looked at the bird. They felt ashamed. They said, "You are right, bird. We are sorry. We were silly and mean. We don't care what flowers we use. We just want to play and have fun." They hugged and said, "We are still friends."
+
+They picked up their flowers and started to make their crowns. Lily used some of Ben's flowers and Ben used some of Lily's flowers. They made the most beautiful and fun crowns ever. They put them on their heads and smiled. They said, "Thank you, bird. You are very wise and kind." The bird said, "Tweet, tweet, tweet. You are welcome. You are very sweet and smart." The bird flew away and sang a happy song.
+
+Lily and Ben skipped in the field and made up a new song. They sang, "We love flowers, we love crowns, we love each other, we love the bird. We are the queen and the king of the field. We are the best friends in the world."
+Tim and Lily were playing in the park. They had a ball, a whistle and some cookies. They liked to run, kick and blow the whistle. Sometimes they shared the cookies. They were tasty and sweet.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can put the whistle in my mouth and make a loud noise!" Tim said. He blew the whistle hard and smiled.
+
+"Wow, Tim, that is fun! Can I try?" Lily asked. She reached for the whistle.
+
+"Okay, but only for a little bit. Then you have to give it back to me," Tim said. He gave the whistle to Lily.
+
+Lily put the whistle in her mouth and blew. But nothing happened. She tried again and again, but no sound came out. She frowned and looked at the whistle.
+
+"Tim, why is your whistle not working?" Lily asked. She gave the whistle back to Tim.
+
+Tim looked at the whistle and saw something brown and sticky. He smelled it and licked it. It was a cookie crumb.
+
+"Oh, Lily, you put a cookie in the whistle! That is why it is not working. You have to be careful with the whistle. It is not for eating," Tim said. He shook the whistle and blew. It made a loud noise again.
+
+"Sorry, Tim, I did not mean to put a cookie in the whistle. I was hungry and I forgot. Can we still be friends?" Lily said. She looked sad.
+
+"Of course we can still be friends, Lily. It was an accident. But next time, please use your hands to eat the cookies, not the whistle. They are tasty, but the whistle is not," Tim said. He hugged Lily and gave her a cookie.
+
+"Thank you, Tim. You are a good friend. And you are right, the cookies are tasty, but the whistle is not," Lily said. She smiled and ate the cookie.
+
+They played some more in the park. They ran, kicked and blew the whistle. Sometimes they shared the cookies. They were happy and had fun.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with magnets. Magnets are things that stick to some other things. They have many magnets of different colors and shapes.
+
+One day, they play a game with magnets. They take turns to put a magnet on a big metal board. The one who makes the biggest line of magnets wins. Lily and Ben are playful. They laugh and have fun.
+
+But then, Lily puts a magnet that breaks Ben's line. Ben is angry. He says, "That is not fair! You cheated! You can't do that!" He grabs Lily's magnet and throws it away. Lily is sad. She says, "No, I didn't cheat! You can do that too! Why are you so mean?" She cries and runs away.
+
+Lily and Ben are not friends anymore. They do not play with magnets. They do not laugh and have fun. They are lonely and unhappy.
+
+Then, Mom comes. She sees the magnets and the big metal board. She sees Lily and Ben sitting apart. She asks, "What happened? Why are you not playing together?" Lily and Ben tell Mom what happened. Mom listens and nods.
+
+She says, "I see. You had a fight. That is not good. Fighting is not nice. It hurts your feelings and your friendship. Do you want to be friends again?" Lily and Ben look at each other. They nod.
+
+Mom says, "Then, you need to say sorry and forgive. Sorry means you are sad for what you did. Forgive means you are not angry anymore. Can you do that?" Lily and Ben nod again.
+
+Lily goes to Ben. She says, "I'm sorry, Ben. I didn't mean to break your line. I was just playing. Can you forgive me?" Ben says, "I'm sorry, too, Lily. I shouldn't have thrown your magnet. I was just mad. I forgive you." They hug and smile.
+
+Mom says, "That's good. I'm proud of you. You are good friends. Now, do you want to play with magnets again?" Lily and Ben say, "Yes, please!" They go to the big metal board. They pick up their magnets. They start a new game.
+
+They say, "This time, we don't care who wins. We just want to have fun. We are playful. We are friends." They laugh and have fun. They are happy.
+Lila and Ben are friends who like to play outside. One day, they find a big purple ball in the grass. They wonder who left it there and what it can do.
+
+"Can we play with it?" Lila questions Ben.
+
+"Sure, why not?" Ben says. "Maybe it can bounce or roll or make a sound."
+
+They pick up the ball and try to bounce it, but it does not bounce. They try to roll it, but it does not roll. They try to shake it, but it does not make a sound.
+
+"This ball is no fun," Lila says. "It does not do anything."
+
+"Maybe it has a secret," Ben says. "Maybe we have to do something to make it work."
+
+"Like what?" Lila questions.
+
+Ben looks around and sees a big tree with a hole in it. He points to the tree and says, "Maybe we have to put it in there."
+
+Lila does not like the idea. She thinks the hole is dark and scary. She does not want to lose the ball.
+
+"No, Ben, no," she says. "The hole is bad. The ball might get stuck or lost or dirty."
+
+Ben does not listen. He thinks the hole is exciting and curious. He wants to see what happens.
+
+"Come on, Lila, come on," he says. "The hole might be good. The ball might light up or make a noise or fly."
+
+He runs to the tree with the ball. Lila runs after him. She tries to stop him, but he is too fast. He reaches the hole and throws the ball in.
+
+"Ben, no!" Lila shouts.
+
+But it is too late. The ball is gone. They hear a loud thud and a strange sound. They look at the hole and see a bright purple light. They hear a voice.
+
+"Hello, children," the voice says. "Thank you for finding my ball. I have been looking for it for a long time. I am a fairy from the west. I will grant you one wish each. What do you want?"
+
+Lila and Ben are shocked and amazed. They look at each other and smile. They have many questions, but they also have many wishes. They think about what they want and what they can say. They open their mouths and speak.
+Ben and Lily were twins who shared a room. They liked to play with their toys and read books before bedtime. Sometimes, they would talk about their dreams and what they wanted to do the next day.
+
+One night, Ben woke up from a bad dream. He felt scared and sad. He saw a big monster with sharp teeth and claws chasing him in the dark. He wanted to run away, but he could not move. He screamed for help, but no one heard him.
+
+He opened his eyes and saw Lily sleeping next to him. He reached out and shook her gently. "Lily, Lily, wake up!" he whispered.
+
+Lily rubbed her eyes and looked at Ben. She saw that he was crying and shaking. "What's wrong, Ben?" she asked.
+
+"I had a nightmare," Ben said. "It was very scary. I don't want to sleep anymore."
+
+Lily hugged Ben and tried to comfort him. "It's okay, Ben. It was just a dream. It's not real. The monster can't hurt you. You're safe with me."
+
+She turned on the lamp and showed him their toys and books. "Look, we have our friends here. They will protect us. Do you want to read a story or play a game?"
+
+Ben nodded and wiped his tears. He picked up a book with colorful pictures. "Can you read this to me, Lily?" he asked.
+
+"Sure, Ben. I like this book. It's about a brave knight and a friendly dragon. They have fun adventures together," Lily said.
+
+She opened the book and started to read. Ben listened and smiled. He felt better and less afraid. He forgot about his nightmare and enjoyed the story.
+
+They read and played until they felt sleepy again. Then they turned off the lamp and cuddled under the blanket. "Good night, Ben. I love you," Lily said.
+
+"Good night, Lily. I love you too," Ben said.
+
+They closed their eyes and fell asleep. They did not have any more nightmares. They had sweet dreams instead.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the living room. They had many toys, but they liked the rug best. The rug was big and soft and had many colors. They pretended it was a magic carpet, a boat, a tent, and a castle.
+
+"Let's wrap ourselves in the rug and be cozy," Lily said. She took one end of the rug and pulled it over her head. Ben did the same with the other end. They giggled as they made a cocoon of the rug.
+
+"Hello, rug monsters," Mom said, coming into the room. She smiled and tickled them through the rug. Lily and Ben squealed and wriggled. "What are you doing in there?"
+
+"We are hiding from the cold," Lily said.
+
+"We are having fun," Ben said.
+
+Mom nodded. "That's a brilliant idea. The rug is warm and soft. But you know what else is warm and soft?"
+
+"What?" Lily and Ben asked.
+
+Mom opened the rug and hugged them. "You are. You are my warm and soft babies. And I love you very much."
+
+Lily and Ben hugged Mom back. They felt happy and loved. They decided to share the rug with Mom and cuddle together. They thought it was the best game ever.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to draw with pencils. Sara has a colorful pencil. It has many colors on it. Ben has a black pencil. It has only one color on it.
+
+One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big slide. They want to play on the slide. They ask their moms if they can go. Their moms say yes, but they have to be careful.
+
+Sara and Ben run to the slide. They take turns to go down. Sara goes first. She holds her colorful pencil in her hand. She slides down fast. She is happy. She waves to Ben. She says, "Look at my pencil! It is so pretty!"
+
+Ben goes next. He holds his black pencil in his hand. He slides down fast. He is happy. He waves to Sara. He says, "Look at my pencil! It is so cool!"
+
+Sara and Ben smile at each other. They like their pencils. They like the slide. They like the park. They are happy. They wave to their moms. They say, "Thank you for taking us to the park!"
+Ben and Lily were playing in the woods. They liked to look for bugs and rocks and leaves. They saw a big log and ran to it. Maybe there were some bugs under it.
+
+"Let's search under the log," Ben said. He lifted one end of the log with his hands. Lily helped him with her hands. They moved the log a little bit and looked under it.
+
+They saw a small animal with brown fur and a long tail. It had big eyes and sharp teeth. It was a squirrel. The squirrel was scared and angry. It made a loud noise and jumped at Ben and Lily.
+
+"Ah!" Ben and Lily screamed. They let go of the log and ran away. The log fell back on the ground. The squirrel ran away too.
+
+Ben and Lily were safe, but they were sorry. They did not mean to scare the squirrel. They did not know it was under the log.
+
+"Sorry, squirrel," Ben said. "We did not want to hurt you."
+
+"Sorry, squirrel," Lily said. "We just wanted to see some bugs."
+
+They hoped the squirrel was okay. They decided to search somewhere else. They did not touch the log again.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, Tom gets a new toy. It is a big red car. It can make noises and move by itself. Tom is very happy.
+
+Mia sees Tom's new toy. She wants to play with it too. She asks Tom, "Can I have a turn with your car?"
+
+Tom says, "No, this is my car. You have your own toys. Go away."
+
+Mia feels sad and jealous. She thinks Tom is not a good friend. She waits until Tom is not looking. Then she tries to reach for his car. She wants to take it and run away.
+
+But Tom sees Mia. He gets angry. He shouts, "Stop! That is my car! Give it back!"
+
+He runs to Mia and grabs his car. He pulls it hard. Mia does not let go. They both pull and pull. The car breaks. It makes a loud noise and stops moving. The open part where the batteries are falls off. The batteries roll away.
+
+Tom and Mia look at the broken car. They both start to cry. They have no more fun. They have no more friends. They have a bad ending.
+Anna and Ben were twins who loved to eat pastry. Every morning, their mom would bake them a different kind of pastry for breakfast. Sometimes it was a muffin, sometimes a croissant, sometimes a donut. Anna and Ben would always try to guess what kind of pastry it was before they saw it.
+
+One morning, their mom told them she had a surprise for them. She said she baked a special pastry that they had never tried before. She told them to close their eyes and wait in the kitchen. Anna and Ben were very excited and curious. They closed their eyes and tried to imagine what the pastry could be.
+
+They heard their mom coming back with a tray. She said, "Okay, are you ready for the surprise?" Anna and Ben nodded eagerly. Their mom said, "Open your eyes and reveal the pastry!" Anna and Ben opened their eyes and gasped. On the tray, there was a huge cake with candles and frosting. It said, "Happy Birthday, Anna and Ben!"
+
+Anna and Ben were so happy and surprised. They had forgotten that it was their birthday. They hugged their mom and thanked her for the wonderful pastry. They blew out the candles and made a wish. They wished that they could always have pastry for breakfast. Their mom smiled and cut them a big slice of cake. Anna and Ben ate the cake and felt very happy. They thought it was the best pastry ever.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with a hole. They want to see what is inside.
+
+They go to the tree and look in the hole. They find a box with a paper. Lily opens the box and takes out the paper. She reads the paper. It is a message.
+
+"Hello, friends. I am a fairy. I live in this tree. I am away for a while. Please take care of my tree and my box. I will come back soon. Thank you. Love, Fairy."
+
+Lily and Tom are happy. They want to be nice to the fairy. They decide to prepare a gift for her.
+
+They look around the park. They find some flowers, some leaves, some stones, and some feathers. They make a lovely crown with the flowers and the leaves. They make a lovely necklace with the stones and the feathers. They put the crown and the necklace in the box. They write a message for the fairy.
+
+"Hello, fairy. We are Lily and Tom. We are your friends. We found your message and your box. We hope you are well. We made a gift for you. We hope you like it. Please come back soon. We want to meet you. Love, Lily and Tom."
+
+They close the box and put it back in the hole. They say goodbye to the tree and the fairy. They go home, smiling. They hope the fairy will be happy. They hope the fairy will come back soon. They hope the fairy will be their friend.
+Tom liked to paint. He had many colors and brushes. He painted birds and trees and houses. He was happy when he painted.
+
+One day, he saw a big bird in the sky. It was white and had long wings. It was a swan. Tom wanted to paint the swan. He ran to get his paint and paper. He looked at the swan and tried to paint it.
+
+But his paint was not white. It was yellow and red and blue and green. He mixed the colors, but they became brown. He was sad. He could not paint the swan.
+
+He threw his paint and paper on the ground. He cried. He did not want to paint anymore.
+
+Then he heard a voice. It was the swan. The swan said, "Why are you crying, little boy?"
+
+Tom said, "I wanted to paint you, but I have no white paint. My paint is ugly and brown."
+
+The swan said, "But your paint is not ugly. It is interesting. You can make many things with your paint. You can make flowers and rainbows and stars. You can make your own birds and trees and houses. You can use your imagination."
+
+Tom looked at the swan. He said, "Really? Can I do that?"
+
+The swan said, "Yes, you can. And you can also soar. You can soar with your paint and your imagination. You can soar like me."
+
+Tom smiled. He picked up his paint and paper. He said, "Thank you, swan. You are very kind. I will try to soar with my paint and my imagination."
+
+He painted the swan with yellow and red and blue and green. He painted flowers and rainbows and stars. He painted his own birds and trees and houses. He was happy when he painted.
+
+He learned that he could make anything with his paint and his imagination. He learned to soar.
+Anna was angry. She wanted to play with her pink doll, but her brother Tom took it. He said it was his turn, but Anna did not agree. She said it was her doll, and she had it first.
+
+"Give it back!" Anna shouted. She tried to grab the doll from Tom, but he was stronger. He pushed her away and ran to the other side of the room.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Tom shouted back. He hugged the doll and stuck out his tongue at Anna.
+
+Anna felt tears in her eyes. She ran to her mom and told her what Tom did. Mom sighed. She was tired of their fighting. She put down her book and went to talk to Tom.
+
+"Tom, you need to share with your sister," Mom said. "It's not nice to take things that are not yours. How would you feel if Anna took your truck?"
+
+Tom frowned. He liked his truck. He did not want Anna to touch it. But he also did not want Mom to be mad at him. He looked at the doll. It was pink and had a dress and a hat. He did not really like it. He only took it to make Anna mad.
+
+He sighed. He knew he was wrong. He walked to Anna and gave her the doll. "I'm sorry, Anna," he said. "You can have it. I don't want it."
+
+Anna smiled. She took the doll and hugged it. She was happy to have it back. She looked at Tom and saw that he was sad. She felt sorry for him. She had an idea.
+
+"Thank you, Tom," she said. "Do you want to play with me? We can play with the doll and the truck. They can be friends."
+
+Tom smiled. He liked that idea. He nodded and picked up his truck. He and Anna went to the floor and played together. Mom smiled too. She was glad they made up. She went back to her book and enjoyed the peace.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the living room. They found a big box that Mom had left there. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Tom said. He tried to lift the lid, but it was too heavy. He stretched his arms and legs, but he could not move it.
+
+"Let me help!" Lily said. She pushed the box with her feet, but it did not budge. She stretched her neck and shoulders, but she could not reach it.
+
+They decided to climb on the box and jump on it. Maybe that would make the lid pop open. They climbed on the box and started to jump up and down. The box made a loud noise and shook a lot.
+
+"Wow, this is fun!" Tom said. He jumped higher and higher.
+
+"Be careful, Tom!" Lily said. She felt dizzy from the jumping. She wanted to stop, but Tom did not listen.
+
+Suddenly, the box broke. Tom and Lily fell to the floor with a thud. The box was full of glass bottles. They shattered and cut Tom and Lily all over. They screamed and cried. Blood was everywhere.
+
+Mom heard the noise and ran to the living room. She saw the mess and the hurt children. She was very angry and scared.
+
+"What have you done?" Mom yelled. "You are very naughty and stupid! You could have died!"
+
+She called the doctor and the ambulance. Tom and Lily had to go to the hospital. They had many stitches and bandages. They were in a lot of pain. They were sorry for what they did, but it was too late. They had a bad ending.
+Lily liked to design things. She used paper, crayons, scissors and glue to make pictures, cards and toys. She liked to give her designs to her friends and family. They always smiled and said thank you.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to design something special for her mom. She thought and thought. Then she had an idea. She asked her dad to help her make popcorn. She liked popcorn. It was yummy and crunchy. She and her dad put some corn in a big pot and waited for it to pop.
+
+When the popcorn was ready, Lily took some and put it in a bowl. She added some butter and salt. Then she took some more and put it in another bowl. She added some honey and sprinkles. She had two kinds of popcorn. She was happy.
+
+She took some paper and wrote "I love you Mom" on it. She used a red crayon. She cut out a heart shape and glued it on the paper. She put the paper and the bowls of popcorn in a basket. She covered the basket with a cloth.
+
+She went to find her mom. She was in the living room, reading a book. Lily said, "Mom, I have a surprise for you!" She gave her the basket and took off the cloth. Her mom saw the paper and the popcorn. She was very surprised and happy. She hugged Lily and said, "Thank you, Lily. This is the best design ever. You are so sweet and clever. I love you too." She kissed Lily and took a bite of the popcorn. It was delicious.
+
+Lily was cheerful. She had made her mom happy. She and her mom ate the popcorn and read the book together. They had a fun and cozy time. Lily was glad she liked to design things.
+Lily was a tidy girl. She liked to keep her toys in boxes and her books on shelves. She did not like mess or dirt. One day, she saw an ant on her floor. She was angry and worried. She thought the ant would make her room dirty and bring more ants.
+
+She ran to her mom and said, "Mom, there is an ant in my room! It will make a mess! Please get rid of it!"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Lily, the ant is not a bad bug. It is just looking for food and a home. It will not harm you or your things. Ants are very hard-working and smart. They help each other and share their food. They can teach us to be kind and helpful too."
+
+Lily was curious. She said, "Really? How do they do that?"
+
+Her mom took her to the garden and showed her an ant hill. She said, "Look, this is where the ants live. They dig tunnels and chambers to store their food and eggs. They have a queen who leads them and workers who do different jobs. They use their antennae to talk and smell. They can carry things bigger than themselves. They are very strong and brave."
+
+Lily was amazed. She said, "Wow, they are very clever and cool. I did not know that. I am sorry I was angry and worried. Can I watch them more?"
+
+Her mom nodded and said, "Of course, you can. But remember, do not touch them or disturb them. They might bite you or run away. They need their space and respect. Just like you and me."
+
+Lily learned a lesson. She realized that ants were not bad or dirty. They were interesting and good. She decided to be more friendly and respectful to them and other animals. She also learned to be less worried and more curious about the world. She was a tidy and happy girl.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in the living room. One day, they find a big white bowl on the table. It is shiny and smooth.
+
+"Look, a bowl!" Lily says. "Let's play with it!"
+
+"No, Lily, we can't!" Ben says. "It is not our bowl. It is Mom's bowl. She will be mad if we touch it."
+
+Lily does not listen to Ben. She wants to play with the bowl. She picks it up and puts it on the floor. She rolls it around like a ball. Ben watches her and worries.
+
+"Lily, stop it!" Ben says. "You will break the bowl! Mom will be sad!"
+
+Lily does not stop. She laughs and pushes the bowl harder. The bowl goes too fast and hits the wall. It makes a loud noise and cracks. Lily and Ben are scared.
+
+"Oh no, the bowl!" Lily says. "It is broken!"
+
+"See, I told you!" Ben says. "Now we are in trouble!"
+
+They hear Mom coming. They hide behind the couch. They hope Mom will not see the broken bowl. They hope Mom will not be angry. They worry a lot.
+Lily and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. Lily has a doll that she loves very much. She hugs her doll and says, "You are my best friend, Daisy. I will never let you go." Ben has a car that he likes to zoom around. He makes loud noises with his mouth and pretends that his car is very fast and strong.
+
+Ben sees Lily's doll and wants to play with it. He says, "Lily, can I have your doll? My car needs a friend too." Lily says, "No, Ben. Daisy is mine. You have your car. Go away." Ben gets angry and says, "Fine. Your doll is not real anyway. It is fake. It does not talk or move or feel. My car is better than your doll." He grabs Lily's doll and runs away.
+
+Lily cries and chases after Ben. She says, "Give me back my doll, Ben. You are mean. You are not my brother." Ben laughs and says, "Catch me if you can, Lily. Your doll is mine now." He runs into the kitchen and sees a pair of scissors on the table. He thinks of a bad idea. He says, "I know what I will do. I will cut your doll's hair and make it ugly. Then you will not want it anymore."
+
+He takes the scissors and starts to cut the doll's hair. Lily sees what he is doing and screams, "No, Ben. Stop. You are hurting Daisy. You are bad. You are bad." She runs to him and tries to take the doll back. Ben pushes her away and says, "Go away, Lily. This is my doll now. I can do what I want with it." He cuts more of the doll's hair and throws it on the floor.
+
+Lily and Ben are making so much noise that their mom hears them. She comes into the kitchen and sees the mess. She sees Lily's doll with cut hair and Lily's tears. She sees Ben's car and Ben's scissors and Ben's smirk. She is very angry and sad. She says, "Ben, what have you done? How could you be so cruel to your sister and her doll? You have hurt Lily's feelings and ruined her toy. You should be ashamed of yourself. You need to say sorry to Lily and give her back her doll. And you need to go to your room and think about what you have done."
+
+Ben feels scared and sorry. He says, "I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry, Lily. I was just playing. I didn't mean to hurt Daisy. I was just mad. I don't want your doll. You can have it back." He gives Lily back her doll and hugs her. He says, "I'm sorry, Lily. You are my sister. I love you. Can you forgive me?" Lily hugs him back and says, "I forgive you, Ben. You are my brother. I love you too. But don't ever cut Daisy's hair again. She is my best friend. And she is not fake. She is real to me."
+Lily and Ben like to play with their toys. They have a big box of toys with many things. They have cars, dolls, balls, books, and more. But their favorite toy is a big black sail. They like to pretend it is a boat and they are pirates.
+
+One day, they take the black sail to the park. They find a big hill and spread the sail on the grass. They sit on the sail and hold the corners. They pretend the wind is blowing and they are sailing on the sea. They say "Ahoy, matey!" and "Yo-ho-ho!" and laugh.
+
+But then they hear a loud roar. They look up and see a big dog. The dog is brown and furry and has sharp teeth. The dog runs to the hill and sees the black sail. He thinks it is a fun thing to play with. He jumps on the sail and bites it. He pulls it and shakes it. He makes holes in the sail.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They scream and cry. They want the dog to go away. They want their sail back. They call for help. They hope someone will hear them and save them.
+
+A man hears their cries. He is the dog's owner. He runs to the hill and sees the dog. He is angry and sorry. He shouts at the dog and pulls him away. He says "Bad dog! No, no, no!" He says "I'm sorry, kids. He didn't mean to hurt you. He just wanted to play. Are you okay?"
+
+Lily and Ben are not hurt, but they are sad. They look at their sail. It is torn and dirty. It is not a boat anymore. It is not fun anymore. They say "Thank you, mister. But our sail is ruined. We can't play with it anymore."
+
+The man feels bad. He says "I'm sorry, kids. I know how much you love your sail. I have an idea. Why don't you come with me to my house? I have a sewing machine and some fabric. I can fix your sail and make it better. I can even add some colors and patterns. Would you like that?"
+
+Lily and Ben smile. They like the man's idea. They say "Yes, please. That would be nice. Thank you, mister." They take their sail and follow the man. They hope he can make their sail beautiful again. They hope they can play with it again. They hope they can sail on the sea again.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and swing. They saw a big tree with green needles. It was a pine tree.
+
+"Look, Tom, a pine tree!" Lily said. "Let's climb it!"
+
+"OK, Lily, let's climb it!" Tom said. They ran to the tree and grabbed the branches. They pulled themselves up and up. The branches were flexible. They bent and swayed.
+
+They reached the top of the tree. They could see the whole park. They felt happy and proud.
+
+"Wow, Lily, we are so high!" Tom said. "We can see everything!"
+
+"Yes, Tom, we are so high!" Lily said. "We can see the birds and the flowers and the people!"
+
+They smiled and waved at the birds and the flowers and the people. They felt like they were flying.
+
+But then they heard a loud voice. It was Mom.
+
+"Lily! Tom! Stop! Come down from the tree!" Mom said. "It is not safe! You could fall and hurt yourself!"
+
+Lily and Tom looked down. They saw Mom. She looked angry and worried.
+
+"Sorry, Mom, we were just having fun!" Lily said.
+
+"Yeah, sorry, Mom, we didn't mean to scare you!" Tom said.
+
+They climbed down from the tree. They were careful and slow. They reached the ground. They hugged Mom.
+
+"I'm glad you are OK, Lily and Tom," Mom said. "But you should not climb so high. It is dangerous. Next time, ask me first."
+
+"OK, Mom, we will ask you first," Lily and Tom said. "We love you, Mom."
+
+"I love you too, Lily and Tom," Mom said. "Now, let's go home and have some cookies."
+
+They walked home with Mom. They still liked the pine tree. But they liked Mom more.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a shiny silver ball on the grass. They ran to pick it up, but a big dog came out of nowhere and barked at them.
+
+"Stay away from my ball!" the dog said. "It is mine and I do not share!"
+
+Ben and Lily were scared of the dog, but they also wanted the ball. They thought of a plan to trick the dog.
+
+"OK, we will stay away from your ball," Ben said. "But can we ask you a question?"
+
+The dog was curious and nodded.
+
+"What is the question?" he asked.
+
+Lily pointed to a tree and said, "How many leaves are on that tree?"
+
+The dog looked at the tree and tried to count the leaves. He was not very intelligent and soon got confused.
+
+"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty, twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three, twenty-four, twenty-five, twenty-six, twenty-seven, twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirty, thirty-one, thirty-two, thirty-three, thirty-four, thirty-five, thirty-six, thirty-seven, thirty-eight, thirty-nine, forty, forty-one, forty-two, forty-three, forty-four, forty-five, forty-six, forty-seven, forty-eight, forty-nine, fifty, fifty-one, fifty-two, fifty-three, fifty-four, fifty-five, fifty-six, fifty-seven, fifty-eight, fifty-nine, sixty, sixty-one, sixty-two, sixty-three, sixty-four, sixty-five, sixty-six, sixty-seven, sixty-eight, sixty-nine, seventy, seventy-one, seventy-two, seventy-three, seventy-four, seventy-five, seventy-six, seventy-seven, seventy-eight, seventy-nine, eighty, eighty-one, eighty-two, eighty-three, eighty-four, eighty-five, eighty-six, eighty-seven, eighty-eight, eighty-nine, ninety, ninety-one, ninety-two, ninety-three, ninety-four, ninety-five, ninety-six, ninety-seven, ninety-eight, ninety-nine, one hundred, one hundred and one, one hundred and two, one hundred and three, one hundred and four, one hundred and five, one hundred and six, one hundred and seven, one hundred and eight, one hundred and nine, one hundred and ten, one hundred and eleven, one hundred and twelve, one hundred and thirteen, one hundred and fourteen, one hundred and fifteen, one hundred and sixteen, one hundred and seventeen, one hundred and eighteen, one hundred and nineteen, one hundred and twenty, one hundred and twenty-one, one hundred and twenty-two, one hundred and twenty-three, one hundred and twenty-four, one hundred and twenty-five, one hundred and twenty-six, one hundred and twenty-seven, one hundred and twenty-eight, one hundred and twenty-nine, one hundred and thirty, one hundred and thirty-one, one hundred and thirty-two, one hundred and thirty-three, one hundred and thirty-four, one hundred and thirty-five, one hundred and thirty-six, one hundred and thirty-seven, one hundred and thirty-eight, one hundred and thirty-nine, one hundred and forty, one hundred and forty-one, one hundred and forty-two, one hundred and forty-three, one hundred and forty-four, one hundred and forty-five, one hundred and forty-six, one hundred and forty-seven, one hundred and forty-eight, one hundred and forty-nine, one hundred and fifty, one hundred and fifty-one, one hundred and fifty-two, one hundred and fifty-three, one hundred and fifty-four, one hundred and fifty-five, one hundred and fifty-six, one hundred and fifty-seven, one hundred and fifty-eight, one hundred and fifty-nine, one hundred and sixty, one hundred and sixty-one, one hundred and sixty-two, one hundred and sixty-three, one hundred and sixty-four, one hundred and sixty-five, one hundred and sixty-six, one hundred and sixty-seven, one hundred and sixty-eight, one hundred and sixty-nine, one hundred and seventy, one hundred and seventy-one, one hundred and seventy-two, one hundred and seventy-three, one hundred and seventy-four, one hundred and seventy-five, one hundred and seventy-six, one hundred and seventy-seven, one hundred and seventy-eight, one hundred and seventy-nine, one hundred and eighty, one hundred and eighty-one, one hundred and eighty-two, one hundred and eighty-three, one hundred and eighty-four, one hundred and eighty-five, one hundred and eighty-six, one hundred and eighty-seven, one hundred and eighty-eight, one hundred and eighty-nine, one hundred and ninety, one hundred and ninety-one, one hundred and ninety-two, one hundred and ninety-three, one hundred and ninety-four, one hundred and ninety-five, one hundred and ninety-six, one
+Ben and Lily like to play with their toy cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make zoom sounds as they move them on the floor. Sometimes they pretend to race or crash or park.
+
+One day, Ben finds a new car in his toy box. It is red and shiny and has a button on the top. He shows it to Lily and says, "Look, I have a new car. It is great. Do you want to see what it does?"
+
+Lily nods and smiles. She likes new things. Ben presses the button and the car makes a loud beep. Then it starts to move by itself. It goes fast and turns and spins. Ben and Lily laugh and clap. They think it is fun.
+
+But then the car goes too fast and bumps into the wall. It makes a dent and falls over. Ben and Lily stop laughing. They are scared. They think they broke the car and the wall. They look at each other and say, "Uh-oh."
+
+They hear footsteps coming. It is Mom. She sees the car and the wall and the dent. She is not happy. She says, "What happened here? Who did this?"
+
+Ben and Lily point at the car and say, "It was the car. It went zoom and beep and poke. We did not do it. It was the car."
+
+Mom picks up the car and looks at it. She sees the button and presses it. The car makes a beep and moves again. She says, "Oh, I see. This is a remote control car. It has a battery and a motor. It can go zoom and beep and poke. But you have to be careful with it. It can hurt things and people. You have to use it in a safe place and not too fast."
+
+She puts the car back in the toy box and says, "You can play with it later, but not in the house. And you have to say sorry for the dent. It was an accident, but you still have to be responsible. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben and Lily nod and say, "Yes, Mom. We are sorry. We did not mean to make a dent. We will be careful next time."
+
+Mom hugs them and says, "I know. I love you. Now, let's go and have a snack. How about some cookies and milk?"
+
+Ben and Lily smile and say, "Yes, please. We like cookies and milk. They are great." They follow Mom to the kitchen and forget about the car and the dent. They are happy again.
+Lily and Max were playing with their toy trucks in the backyard. They had a big pile of sand and some rocks to load on their trucks. Lily was very good at loading her truck. She used a small shovel and filled it up neatly. Max was clumsy. He tried to use his hands and spilled sand everywhere.
+
+"Look, Lily, I load my truck too!" Max said, showing her his messy truck.
+
+"That is not loading, Max. That is making a mess," Lily said, shaking her head.
+
+Max felt sad. He wanted to load his truck like Lily. He looked around and saw a vest hanging on the clothesline. He had an idea. He ran to the vest and put it on. It was too big for him and dragged on the ground.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a vest!" Max said, running back to her.
+
+"That is not a vest, Max. That is Dad's vest. It is too big for you," Lily said, laughing.
+
+Max felt silly. He wanted to wear a vest like Lily. She had a pink vest with flowers on it. He looked around and saw a bucket with water and some paint brushes. He had another idea. He dipped a brush in the water and painted some stripes on his vest.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a striped vest!" Max said, showing her his wet vest.
+
+"That is not a striped vest, Max. That is Dad's vest with water on it. It is still too big for you," Lily said, giggling.
+
+Max felt frustrated. He wanted to have a striped vest like Lily. She had a striped vest with red and blue stripes on it. He looked around and saw a jar with some jam on the table. He had a final idea. He grabbed the jar and smeared some jam on his vest.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a red and blue vest!" Max said, showing her his sticky vest.
+
+"That is not a red and blue vest, Max. That is Dad's vest with jam on it. It is still too big for you and now it is dirty too," Lily said, bursting into laughter.
+
+Max felt angry. He threw the jar on the ground and stomped his feet.
+
+"I don't want to play with you anymore, Lily. You are mean to me. You don't like my truck, my vest, or my stripes. You are a bad sister," Max said, crying.
+
+Lily felt sorry for Max. She saw that he was trying to be like her and have fun. She realized that she was not very nice to him. She hugged him and wiped his tears.
+
+"I'm sorry, Max. I don't mean to be mean to you. I like your truck, your vest, and your stripes. You are a good brother. You are very creative and brave. You don't have to be like me. You can be yourself. You are special," Lily said, smiling.
+
+Max felt happy. He hugged Lily back and smiled too.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. I'm sorry too. I don't mean to make a mess. I like your truck, your vest, and your stripes too. You are a good sister. You are very smart and kind. You don't have to be like me. You can be yourself. You are special too," Max said, smiling.
+
+They hugged and kissed and made up. They decided to share their trucks, their vests, and their stripes. They played together happily in the backyard. They were the best brother and sister ever.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big mountain far away. They wanted to go there.
+
+"Can we go to the mountain, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Not today, dear. It is too far and too high. Maybe when you are older," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom were sad. They wanted to see the mountain up close. They wondered what was on the top.
+
+"Let's pretend we are on the mountain," Tom said. He had an idea.
+
+They found some rocks and sticks and made a small mountain on the ground. They put a flag on the top.
+
+"Look, we made a mountain!" Lily said. She was happy.
+
+They took turns to climb the small mountain. They pretended they were explorers. They saw birds and flowers and clouds.
+
+"Wow, this is fun!" Tom said.
+
+They played for a long time. They were tired and thirsty. They decided to sit on the small mountain and rest.
+
+They looked at the big mountain again. It was still far and high. But they did not feel sad anymore.
+
+"Maybe one day we will go to the big mountain," Lily said.
+
+"Maybe. But we have to be patient and wait," Tom said.
+
+They nodded. They were patient. They had each other and their small mountain. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play and sing. One day, they saw a big poster of an opera on the wall. It had a picture of a lady with a long dress and a man with a funny hat. They wanted to know what an opera was.
+
+"Let's go and see the opera!" Tom said.
+
+"No, we can't. It's too late and too loud. Mom and Dad will be angry," Lily said.
+
+"I dare you to go with me. It will be fun. We can sneak out and come back soon," Tom said.
+
+Lily was scared, but she did not want to look like a baby. She agreed to go with Tom. They put on their coats and shoes and ran out of the door.
+
+They followed the poster to a big building with many lights and people. They found a door that was open and went inside. They saw a big stage with curtains and chairs. They hid behind a chair and watched the opera.
+
+The opera was not fun. It was long and boring. The lady and the man sang very loud and high. They did not understand what they were saying. They made faces and gestures that looked silly. Sometimes, they cried or laughed or fought. Tom and Lily did not like it.
+
+They wanted to go home, but they did not know how to get out. They were afraid of the people and the noise. They wished they had stayed at home with Mom and Dad. They missed their toys and their bed. They hugged each other and whispered.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I should not have dared you to come. This was a bad idea," Tom said.
+
+"It's okay, Tom. I should not have followed you. I hope Mom and Dad are not worried," Lily said.
+
+They closed their eyes and hoped for a peaceful night.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden after dinner. They liked to pretend they were explorers in the forest. They had a tent, a flashlight and a map.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a big tree. Maybe there is an owl in it," Lily said.
+
+"Let's go and see," Ben said. They walked to the tree and shone the flashlight on the branches. They saw a pair of yellow eyes and a fluffy face.
+
+"Wow, it is an owl!" Lily said. "Hello, owl, we are friendly. Can we be your friends?"
+
+The owl blinked and tilted its head. It made a soft sound, like a question.
+
+"Maybe it is hungry," Ben said. "Do you have any snacks, Lily?"
+
+Lily checked her backpack. She had a granola bar and a banana. She broke the granola bar in half and gave one piece to Ben. She peeled the banana and held it out to the owl.
+
+"Here, owl, you can have this. It is yummy and healthy," she said.
+
+The owl looked at the banana and then at Lily. It flew down from the branch and landed on Lily's arm. It took the banana gently with its beak and ate it.
+
+"Thank you, generous girl," the owl said. "You are very kind. I will be your friend."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They had made a new friend in the forest. They played with the owl until it was time to go home. They said goodbye and promised to come back soon. The owl waved with its wing and flew back to the tree. It was a happy night for everyone.
+Tom and Lily went to the beach with their mom and dad. They brought a big bucket and a spade to make sand castles. Tom wanted to make a big castle with towers and walls. Lily wanted to make a small castle with shells and flowers.
+
+"Come on, Lily, help me dig!" Tom said. He was impatient. He wanted to finish his castle before the tide came in.
+
+"No, Tom, I want to make my own castle. It is pretty!" Lily said. She was happy. She liked to decorate her castle with things she found on the beach.
+
+Tom and Lily started to argue. They did not want to share the bucket and the spade. They pulled and pushed and shouted.
+
+"Stop it, Tom and Lily!" their mom said. She was angry. She did not like to see them fight. "You have to share and play nicely. Or we will go home."
+
+Tom and Lily did not want to go home. They wanted to stay at the beach. They looked at each other and said sorry. They decided to work together and make one big castle with towers and walls and shells and flowers. They used the bucket and the spade to dig and shape the sand. They had fun.
+
+They finished their castle just in time. The tide was coming in. They ran to their mom and dad and showed them their castle. They were proud.
+
+"Wow, what a beautiful castle!" their mom and dad said. They were happy. They liked to see them cooperate. "You did a great job, Tom and Lily!"
+
+Tom and Lily smiled. They hugged their mom and dad. They closed their eyes and made a wish. They wished their castle would stay forever.
+Lia and Sam were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big picture of a lion on a poster. The lion had a long mane and sharp teeth. Lia and Sam wanted to see a real lion, so they asked their moms if they could go to the zoo.
+
+Their moms said yes, and they took them to the zoo. Lia and Sam were very excited. They saw many animals, like monkeys, elephants, and giraffes. But they wanted to see the lion the most. They ran to the lion's cage and looked inside.
+
+The lion was lying on a rock, sleeping. He did not move or make a sound. Lia and Sam were disappointed. They wanted to see the lion roar and run. They said to the lion, "Hey, lion, wake up! Show us how you are!"
+
+The lion opened his eyes and looked at them. He was not happy. He said, "Why do you bother me? I am tired and want to rest. You are rude and noisy. Go away!"
+
+Lia and Sam were scared. They did not expect the lion to talk. They said, "Sorry, lion, we did not mean to be rude. We just wanted to see you. You are so big and strong and graceful. We admire you."
+
+The lion said, "You admire me? Then you should respect me. I am not here to entertain you. I have my own life and feelings. If you want to see me, you should be quiet and patient. Maybe then I will show you how I am."
+
+Lia and Sam felt ashamed. They realized they were wrong. They said, "You are right, lion. We are sorry. We will be quiet and patient. We will respect you and the other animals. Thank you for teaching us."
+
+The lion said, "You are welcome. I forgive you. You are young and curious. You can learn from your mistakes. Maybe next time, I will show you how I roar and run. But now, I will go back to sleep. Goodbye."
+
+Lia and Sam said, "Goodbye, lion. Have a good sleep. We will see you again." They waved to the lion and left. They learned a lesson that day. They learned to respect the animals and their needs. They learned to be polite and kind. They learned to admire the lion's grace.
+Lily liked to play dress-up with her mom's clothes. She found a big purple hat with a feather on it. She put it on her head and looked in the mirror. She smiled and said, "I look like a princess!"
+
+She went to show her mom, who was in the kitchen. "Mom, look at me!" she said. "Do you like my hat?"
+
+Mom turned around and saw Lily. She smiled and said, "You look very pretty, Lily. I love your hat. Where did you find it?"
+
+Lily said, "It was in your closet. Can I wear it today?"
+
+Mom said, "Sure, you can wear it today. But be careful not to lose it. It was a gift from your grandma."
+
+Lily said, "Okay, mom. Thank you. I love you and I love grandma."
+
+She gave mom a hug and a kiss. Then she went to play with her dolls. She pretended they were her friends and invited them to a tea party. She wore her purple hat and felt very happy.
+Tim and Mia are playing in the park. They see a big round ball on the grass. It is red and blue and shiny. They run to the ball and want to play with it.
+
+"Can I have the ball?" Tim asks Mia.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Mia says. She holds the ball tight.
+
+Tim is angry. He sees a stick on the ground. He picks up the stick and hits the ball with it. The ball makes a loud noise and pops. Air comes out of the ball. The ball is not round anymore. It is flat and filthy.
+
+Mia is sad. She cries and drops the ball. She looks at Tim and says, "You are mean! You broke my ball!"
+
+Tim feels sorry. He says, "I am sorry, Mia. I did not mean to break your ball. I just wanted to play with it."
+
+Mia stops crying. She says, "It is okay, Tim. I forgive you. But next time, please ask me nicely."
+
+Tim nods. He says, "Okay, Mia. I will ask you nicely. Can we still be friends?"
+
+Mia smiles. She says, "Yes, Tim. We can still be friends. But we need a new ball."
+
+They hug and go to look for a new ball. They find a yellow and green ball. It is round and soft. They share the ball and play together. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily were young and liked to play outside. They had a green ball that they threw and caught. They also liked to run and jump and laugh.
+
+One day, it was very dark and gray in the sky. Tom and Lily did not care. They still wanted to play outside with their green ball. They put on their coats and boots and hats and ran to the park.
+
+But soon, it started to rain. The rain was cold and wet and heavy. It made the grass and the ground and the ball slippery. Tom and Lily did not like the rain. They wanted to go home.
+
+They tried to run back to their house, but they slipped and fell. They hurt their knees and elbows and heads. They cried and shouted for help. But no one heard them. The rain was too loud and no one was outside.
+
+Tom and Lily were very sad and scared. They did not know what to do. They hugged each other and hoped the rain would stop. But the rain did not stop. It rained and rained and rained. Tom and Lily were stuck in the park. They had no fun. They had a bad day.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat, a scarf and a carrot nose. They also gave him two eyes and a mouth with coal.
+
+"Look at our snowman, he is so funny!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, he is. Do you want to joke with him?" Tom asked.
+
+"How can we joke with a snowman?" Lily wondered.
+
+Tom had an idea. He took the carrot nose from the snowman and hid it behind his back. Then he said to the snowman in a loud voice:
+
+"Hello, Mr. Snowman, can you smell this?" He waved the carrot in the air.
+
+The snowman did not answer, because he was made of snow. But Lily laughed and said:
+
+"Tom, you are so silly! That is not a joke, that is a trick. The snowman cannot smell anything, he has no nose now."
+
+Tom smiled and said:
+
+"Sorry, Mr. Snowman, I was just joking. Here is your nose back." He put the carrot nose on the snowman again.
+
+Lily and Tom hugged the snowman and said:
+
+"We are sorry, Mr. Snowman, we like you very much. You are very honest and nice. You do not get angry when we joke with you."
+
+The snowman did not say anything, but he seemed to smile with his coal mouth. Lily and Tom felt happy and warm. They played with the snowman until it was time to go home.
+Ben and Sam like to play hockey with their sticks and a ball. They are friends, but sometimes they fight. One day, they fight over who gets the red ball. Ben says, "It is mine, I saw it first!" Sam says, "No, it is mine, I like it more!" They pull and tug on the ball, and make loud noises.
+
+Then, Ben gets very angry and bites Sam on the arm. Sam cries out, "Ow, ow, ow! That hurts!" He drops the ball and runs to his mom. Ben feels bad, but he picks up the ball and plays by himself.
+
+Sam's mom puts a band-aid on his arm and gives him a hug. She says, "Ben should not bite you, that is not nice. But you should also share the ball, that is fair." Sam nods, and says, "I am sorry, mom. I want to share, but Ben was mean."
+
+Ben's mom sees him playing alone and asks him, "Where is Sam? Why are you not playing with him?" Ben says, "I bit him, because he wanted my ball." Ben's mom says, "Oh, Ben, that is not good. Biting is wrong, it hurts people. You should say sorry to Sam, and share the ball. That is kind." Ben says, "I am sorry, mom. I want to say sorry, but I am scared."
+
+Ben's mom takes him to Sam's mom and says, "Ben has something to say to Sam." Ben looks at Sam and sees his band-aid. He feels sorry and says, "I am sorry, Sam. I should not bite you. Can we share the ball and play together?" Sam smiles and says, "I am sorry, too, Ben. I should not fight with you. Yes, we can share the ball and play together." They hug and say, "We are friends."
+
+Ben and Sam learn that biting is bad, and sharing is good. They play hockey with the red ball, and have fun. They are happy.
+Lia liked to look at the stars at night. She had a book with pictures of planets and moons. She wanted to see them for real. One night, she asked her dad, "Can we go to the space?"
+
+Her dad smiled and said, "Maybe one day, Lia. But it is very far and hard to go there. We need a big rocket and a special suit."
+
+Lia was sad. She wished she had a rocket and a suit. She said, "But I want to see the planets. They are so shiny and pretty."
+
+Her dad hugged her and said, "I know, Lia. But you can see them from here, too. Look, there is Mars. It is red and bright. And there is Venus. It is yellow and shiny. And there is Jupiter. It is big and has stripes."
+
+Lia looked at the sky and saw the planets. She was happy. She said, "Wow, they are so shiny and pretty. Thank you, dad."
+
+Her dad said, "You're welcome, Lia. But do you know what is the most shiny and pretty thing in the sky?"
+
+Lia thought for a moment. She said, "The moon?"
+
+Her dad shook his head and said, "No, Lia. The most shiny and pretty thing in the sky is you. You are my star. You shine brighter than any planet or moon."
+
+Lia smiled and said, "Really, dad?"
+
+Her dad nodded and said, "Really, Lia. You are my star. And I love you."
+
+Lia hugged her dad and said, "I love you, too, dad. You are my sun. You make me warm and happy."
+
+They cuddled and watched the stars and planets until they fell asleep.
+Timmy liked to help his mom in the kitchen. He liked to stir and pour and taste. But he did not like onions. He thought they were terrible. They made his eyes water and his nose sting. He always said no when his mom asked him to chop them.
+
+One day, his mom was making soup for dinner. She gave Timmy a big onion and a knife. She said, "Timmy, can you please chop this onion for me? It will make the soup very yummy."
+
+Timmy shook his head. He said, "No, mom, I don't want to chop the onion. It is terrible. It will make me cry."
+
+His mom smiled. She said, "Timmy, it's okay to cry a little. It means the onion is strong and good for you. It will make the soup taste better. And you can wear these goggles to protect your eyes. See, they are funny and colorful. Please, Timmy, help me chop the onion."
+
+Timmy looked at the goggles. They were funny and colorful. They had stars and stripes and dots. He liked them. He wanted to try them on. But he still did not want to chop the onion. He said, "No, mom, I don't like the onion. It is terrible. It will make me sick."
+
+His mom sighed. She said, "Timmy, you are a big boy now. You can do hard things. You can chop the onion. It will not make you sick. It will make you strong and healthy. And you will be proud of yourself for helping me. Please, Timmy, chop the onion."
+
+Timmy looked at his mom. He saw that she was tired and busy. He wanted to make her happy. He wanted to be a big boy. He wanted to be proud of himself. He took a deep breath. He said, "Okay, mom, I will chop the onion. But only a little bit."
+
+His mom hugged him. She said, "Thank you, Timmy, you are a good helper. You are a brave boy. I love you very much."
+
+Timmy put on the goggles. He picked up the knife. He started to chop the onion. He felt a tear roll down his cheek. He sniffed. He said, "Mom, this onion is terrible. But I will chop it for you. And for the soup. And for me."
+Sam and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and find things. Sometimes they found worms, sometimes they found stones, sometimes they found seeds.
+
+One day, they found a potato. It was big and brown and had eyes. Sam picked it up and showed it to Lily.
+
+"Look, Lily, a potato!" he said.
+
+Lily looked at the potato and made a face. She did not like potatoes. She thought they were yucky.
+
+"Put it down, Sam, it is yucky!" she said.
+
+Sam did not listen. He thought the potato was funny. He made a scary face and said, "Boo! I am a wild potato! I will scare you!"
+
+He ran after Lily with the potato. Lily screamed and ran away. She was scared of the wild potato.
+
+Sam chased her around the garden, laughing and saying, "Boo! Boo! Boo!"
+
+Lily ran to the house and knocked on the door. Mom opened the door and saw Lily crying and Sam holding the potato.
+
+"What is going on?" Mom asked.
+
+"Lily, why are you crying? Sam, why are you holding a potato?"
+
+Lily pointed at Sam and said, "He scared me with the wild potato!"
+
+Sam smiled and said, "It was just a joke, Lily. I was playing with the potato."
+
+Mom looked at the potato and said, "That is not a wild potato, Sam. That is a sweet potato. You can eat it. It is yummy."
+
+She took the potato from Sam and said, "Come on, let's go inside and wash it. I will make some sweet potato fries for you. Do you want some, Lily?"
+
+Lily nodded and wiped her tears. She was not scared of the sweet potato anymore. She was hungry.
+
+She followed Mom and Sam inside. They washed the potato and cut it into thin slices. Mom put some oil and salt on them and baked them in the oven. They smelled good.
+
+When they were ready, Mom gave them some sweet potato fries on a plate. Sam and Lily ate them and said, "Yum! Yum! Yum!"
+
+They liked the sweet potato fries. They were not yucky. They were sweet and crispy.
+
+They thanked Mom and gave her a hug. They said, "Sorry, Mom, for making a mess in the garden."
+
+Mom said, "That's okay, my loves. I'm glad you had fun. But next time, don't scare each other with potatoes, okay?"
+
+Sam and Lily said, "Okay, Mom. We won't."
+
+They smiled and hugged each other. They were not mad at each other anymore. They were friends.
+
+They decided to play something else in the garden. They left the potato alone. It was not wild. It was sweet.
+Lila and Ben like to play in the park. They like to swing, climb and run. But their favorite thing is to slide. They slide down the big slide, the small slide and the twisty slide. They laugh and have fun.
+
+One day, they see a new slide in the park. It is very high and very long. It looks like a lot of fun. But there is a sign next to it. The sign has a picture of a red cross and some words. Lila and Ben do not know what the words mean. They think the sign is a decoration.
+
+They run to the new slide and climb up the ladder. They see a rag on the slide. It is dirty and wet. They do not care. They push the rag aside and sit on the slide. They are ready to go.
+
+But the slide is very slippery. The rag made it wet and oily. Lila and Ben slide down very fast. They cannot stop. They scream and hold on to each other. The slide is dangerous. They are scared.
+
+They reach the end of the slide and fly off. They land on the grass. They are not hurt, but they are dirty and wet. They look at each other and cry. They do not like the new slide. They want to go home. They run to their mom and dad and hug them. They tell them what happened. Their mom and dad are angry and worried. They tell them to never go on the new slide again. They tell them to always read the signs. They tell them to be careful and safe. They take them home and give them a bath and a hug. Lila and Ben are sorry and sad. They learned a lesson. They will not slide on the dangerous slide again. They will only slide on the fun slides.
+Lily and Max are playing in their mom's room. They like to look at her things and try them on. Lily finds a big box of makeup. She opens it and sees many colors and shapes.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Lily says. "Let's play with the makeup. We can be like mom."
+
+Max nods and smiles. He likes to play with Lily. They take some makeup and put it on their faces. They make funny shapes and dots. They laugh and giggle.
+
+But then they hear mom coming. They get scared. They know mom does not like them to touch her makeup. They try to hide the box and clean their faces. But they are too slow.
+
+Mom opens the door and sees them. She is not happy. She sees the makeup on their faces and on the floor. She sees the box open and messy.
+
+"What are you doing?" mom asks. "Why did you take my makeup? You know you are not allowed to do that."
+
+Lily and Max look down. They feel bad. They do not know what to say.
+
+"We are sorry, mom," Lily says. "We just wanted to play. We like your makeup. It is so pretty."
+
+Mom sighs. She is not very angry. She knows they are just kids. But she is also tired. She works hard every day. She needs her makeup to look nice. It is tough to be a mom.
+
+She picks up the box and the makeup. She gives them a tissue to wipe their faces.
+
+"Listen, kids," mom says. "I love you very much. But you have to respect my things. Makeup is not a toy. It is for grown-ups. You can play with other things. But not with my makeup. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Max nod. They understand. They hug mom and say sorry again.
+
+Mom hugs them back. She smiles and kisses them.
+
+"It's okay," mom says. "I forgive you. But next time, please ask me first. And don't make a mess. Okay?"
+
+Lily and Max say okay. They promise to be good. They help mom clean the room. Then they go to play with their toys. They are happy. They love mom. And mom loves them.
+Sara likes to dance. She dances in her room, in the garden, and in the park. She dances with her dolls, her dog, and her friends. She dances when she is happy, when she is sad, and when she is bored.
+
+One day, Sara sees a big house with a big gate. She wonders who lives there. She sees a sign that says "Rich people only". She does not know what "rich" means, but she thinks it sounds nice. She wants to see the house and the people.
+
+She waits until the gate is open and runs inside. She sees a big garden with many flowers and trees. She sees a big pool with water and toys. She sees a big house with many windows and doors. She thinks it is very pretty.
+
+She runs to the house and tries to open a door. The door has a shiny handle. She pulls the handle, but the door does not open. She tries another door, and another, and another. None of the doors open. She feels sad and angry.
+
+She hears a voice behind her. It is a man. He is wearing a suit and a hat. He looks angry too. He says "Who are you? What are you doing here? This is not your house. This is my house. I am rich. You are not. Go away!"
+
+Sara is scared. She does not like the man. She does not like his house. She does not like his words. She runs away from the house, from the garden, and from the gate. She runs back to the park, where she sees her friends. They are dancing. She joins them. She feels happy again. She likes to dance. She does not care about being rich. She only cares about being free.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and make mud pies. They had a lot of fun, but they also got very dirty.
+
+"Time to go inside and have a bath!" Mom called from the door. "You are both very messy!"
+
+Lily and Ben groaned. They did not like baths. They liked to stay dirty. They ran to the door, but Mom stopped them.
+
+"Wait a minute, you two. You need to use soap to wash your hands and faces. Soap makes you clean and smells nice. Here, take this soap." Mom gave them each a bar of soap.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at the soap. It was slippery and white. They did not want to use it. They tried to hide it behind their backs.
+
+"No, Mom, we don't need soap. We are fine like this," Lily said.
+
+"Yes, Mom, soap is difficult. It falls and slides and makes bubbles," Ben said.
+
+Mom shook her head. She knew they were lying. She smiled and said, "Soap is not difficult. It is easy and fun. Let me show you. Come with me to the sink."
+
+Mom took them to the sink and turned on the water. She took Lily's soap and rubbed it on her hands. She made a lot of foam and bubbles. She blew on the bubbles and they flew in the air.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Lily said. She liked the bubbles. She wanted to make some too. She took her soap and copied Mom.
+
+Mom did the same with Ben. She helped him make bubbles and foam. He laughed and clapped his hands. He liked the soap too.
+
+"See, soap is not difficult. It is fun. And it makes you clean and fresh. Now, let's go to the bath and use more soap. You can play with the soap in the water. It will be like a party!" Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They followed Mom to the bath. They used the soap to wash their hair and body. They made more bubbles and foam. They played with the soap in the water. They had a lot of fun.
+
+They were happy that Mom showed them how to use soap. They learned that soap was not difficult. It was easy and fun. And it saved them from being dirty and smelly. They thanked Mom and gave her a hug and a kiss. They were clean and happy.
+Sara loved books. She liked to look at the pictures and hear the stories. She had many books on her bookshelf in her room. She was happy when her mom or dad read to her before bed.
+
+One day, Sara saw a new book on the bookshelf. It had a big red cover and a picture of a dragon. Sara was curious and excited. She wanted to read the new book. She asked her mom, "Can you read me the dragon book, please?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Sure, honey. But first, we have to do something. We have to pack some of your books in a box. We are moving to a new house soon. You will have a bigger room and a bigger bookshelf there. But we can't take all your books with us. We have to give some of them away to other children who don't have books."
+
+Sara felt anxious. She didn't want to move. She didn't want to give away her books. She loved all her books. She said, "No, mom. I don't want to pack. I don't want to move. I don't want to give away my books. They are mine. They are my friends."
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "I know, honey. I know you love your books. But sometimes we have to let go of some things to make room for new things. You will still have many books in your new house. And you will make new friends there. And you will help other children who need books. It's a good thing to share, Sara. It's a kind thing to do."
+
+Sara didn't understand. She felt angry and sad. She started to weep. She ran to her bookshelf and grabbed the dragon book. She said, "No, mom. This is my book. This is my new book. You can't take it away from me. I want to read it. I want to see the dragon."
+
+Her mom sighed and said, "Okay, okay. Calm down, Sara. You can keep the dragon book. But you have to choose one book to give away. Just one book, Sara. Can you do that?"
+
+Sara looked at her bookshelf. She saw all her books. She saw the books she had read many times. She saw the books she had never read. She saw the books she liked and the books she didn't like. She felt confused and scared. She didn't know which book to choose. She didn't want to lose any of them. She wept harder. She said, "No, mom. I can't. I can't choose. I love them all. Please, mom. Please don't make me."
+Sam liked to number his pants. He had five pants in different colors. He put a sticker on each pant with a number. One was red, two was blue, three was green, four was yellow, and five was purple. He wore a different pant every day.
+
+One day, he wore his red pant with the number one. He went to the park with his mom. He saw a big dog. The dog was hungry. The dog smelled Sam's pant. The dog thought the sticker was a tasty treat. The dog ran to Sam and bit his pant.
+
+"Ow! Mom, help!" Sam cried. He was scared and hurt.
+
+"Bad dog! Let go of my son!" Mom shouted. She pulled the dog away from Sam. She checked his leg. It was not bleeding, but it had a big hole in his pant.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sam. Your pant is ruined. The dog was naughty. Are you okay?" Mom asked.
+
+"I'm okay, Mom. But I'm sad. I liked my red pant. It was my number one pant. Now I have only four pants left," Sam said.
+
+"Don't worry, Sam. We can get you a new pant. Maybe a different color. What color do you want?" Mom asked.
+
+Sam thought for a moment. He remembered his other pants. He smiled.
+
+"I want a pink pant. A pink pant with the number six," Sam said.
+Lily and Ben were playing outside after the rain. They liked to jump in the puddles and make splashes. They saw a big puddle near the fence and ran towards it.
+
+"Look, Lily, this puddle is so big!" Ben said. "I bet we can fit in it!"
+
+"Let's try!" Lily said. They took off their shoes and socks and got ready to jump.
+
+But they did not see the hole in the fence. The hole was big enough for a dog to go through. And on the other side of the fence, there was a big, mean dog. The dog did not like children. He saw Lily and Ben and barked loudly.
+
+"Uh-oh, Lily, there is a dog!" Ben said. He was scared. He tried to grab Lily's hand and run away.
+
+But it was too late. The dog jumped through the hole and ran towards them. He bit Lily's leg and made her cry. He bit Ben's arm and made him cry too. He did not let go.
+
+Lily and Ben were in a lot of pain. They wished they had not jumped in the puddle. They wished they had stayed away from the fence. They wished someone would help them.
+
+But no one heard them. No one came. The dog was too serious. He did not stop. He hurt them more and more.
+
+Lily and Ben did not play outside again.
+Tom and Lily were friends who liked to play sport. They liked to run, jump, kick and throw. They had fun with sport.
+
+One day, they saw a big ball in the park. It was round and red and shiny. They wanted to play with it.
+
+"Can we play with that ball?" Tom asked Lily.
+
+"Let's ask the man who has it," Lily said.
+
+They went to the man who had the ball. He was sitting on a bench and reading a book.
+
+"Excuse me, sir," Lily said. "Can we play with your ball?"
+
+The man looked at them and smiled. He was kind and friendly.
+
+"Sure, you can play with my ball," he said. "But be careful, it is not a normal ball. It is a balloon."
+
+"A balloon?" Tom and Lily said.
+
+"Yes, a balloon. It is filled with air. It is very light and soft. It is harmless, but it can pop if you are too rough with it," the man said.
+
+He gave them the balloon and showed them how to hold it gently.
+
+"Thank you, sir," Tom and Lily said.
+
+They took the balloon and started to play with it. They tossed it in the air, bounced it on the ground, and rolled it on the grass. They had fun with the balloon.
+
+They did not mention the sport they liked anymore. They liked the balloon too.
+One day, a mole was digging in the ground. He liked to make tunnels and find food. He was a very powerful mole, and he could dig faster than any other mole. He was proud of his strong claws and nose.
+
+But he was not very careful. He did not look where he was going. He did not listen to the sounds around him. He did not smell the air for danger. He just dug and dug and dug.
+
+Soon, he reached a big metal thing. It was shiny and hard. It had a hole in it. The mole was curious. He wanted to see what was inside. He pushed his nose into the hole. He felt something click. He tried to pull back, but he could not. He was stuck. He had locked himself in the metal thing.
+
+He was scared. He cried for help. He scratched and kicked, but he could not get out. He wished he had been more careful. He wished he had stayed with his friends.
+
+Then, he heard a voice. It was a human voice. It said, "Look, what do we have here? A mole in a trap! How silly of you, little mole. You should have known better than to dig in my garden. Now, you are mine."
+
+The mole saw a big face above him. It was a mean face. It had a big nose and a big mouth. It had sharp teeth and angry eyes. It was the farmer. The farmer hated moles. He wanted to get rid of them. He had set the trap for them.
+
+The mole was very afraid. He knew the farmer was not nice. He knew the farmer would hurt him. He wished he had a powerful friend to save him. He wished he had never seen the metal thing. He wished he had never locked himself in the trap.
+Anna loves her dog, Max. Max is big and brown and likes to play. Anna likes to take Max to the park, where they can run and chase balls and meet other dogs. Max is Anna's best friend.
+
+One day, Anna and Max go to the park as usual. But Max does not want to play. He sits on the grass and looks sad. He does not run or chase balls or meet other dogs. He only whines and licks his paw. Anna is worried. She does not know what is wrong with Max.
+
+Anna takes Max home and tells her mom. Her mom is worried too. She says they need to take Max to the veterinarian. The veterinarian is a person who helps sick animals. Anna and her mom put Max in the car and drive to the veterinarian.
+
+The veterinarian is nice and gentle. He looks at Max and touches his paw. He says Max has a thorn in his paw. That is why he is sad and whines. The veterinarian takes out the thorn and puts a bandage on Max's paw. He says Max will be fine soon. He gives Max a treat and a hug. Max wags his tail and licks the veterinarian's face.

+Anna is happy. She thanks the veterinarian and hugs Max. She says she will take good care of him and give him lots of love. She says she can't wait to take him to the park again, when he is better. Max barks and kisses Anna. Anna and Max go home with her mom. They are best friends.
+Ben and Lily liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big pig. The pig was pink and soft and made funny noises. Ben and Lily liked to pretend that the pig was their friend and they took turns to hug it and feed it.
+
+One day, they decided to play a game with the pig. They said, "Who can make the pig laugh the most?" They took turns to tickle the pig, tell it jokes, and make funny faces. The pig laughed and snorted and wiggled its tail. Ben and Lily laughed too. They had fun.
+
+But then, Ben wanted to win the game. He said, "I can make the pig laugh more than you. Watch this!" He grabbed the pig and ran to the kitchen. He opened the fridge and took out a big cake. He said, "Look, pig, this is a cake. It is yummy. Do you want some?" He smashed the cake on the pig's head. The pig did not laugh. The pig was scared and angry. The pig squealed and bit Ben's hand. Ben dropped the pig and cried. He ran to his mom and showed her his hand. It was red and sore.
+
+Lily followed Ben and saw what he did. She was sad and mad. She said, "You are mean, Ben. You hurt the pig. You did not play nice. You did not win. You lost." She picked up the pig and hugged it. She said, "I'm sorry, pig. You are my friend. I will make you feel better." She took the pig to the bathroom and washed the cake off its head. She dried it with a towel and gave it a kiss.
+
+The pig was happy and licked Lily's face. Lily smiled and said, "You are the best, pig. You make me laugh. You win." She took the pig to her room and played with it. She did not want to play with Ben anymore. Ben was alone and sad. He wished he did not do a bad thing. He wished he had a friend. He wished he could say sorry. But it was too late. The end.
+Tom and Lily are playing in the park. They see a big wall with many colors on it. They want to go closer and look at the colors.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's find out what the colors are!" Tom says.
+
+"OK, Tom, but be careful. The wall looks dangerous. Maybe it is not for us to touch." Lily says.
+
+They run to the wall and see many pictures of animals, flowers, cars and people. They are very pretty and bright. Tom and Lily like them a lot.
+
+"Wow, look at this one! It is a lion with a big mane. He looks strong and brave." Tom says.
+
+"Yes, and look at this one! It is a butterfly with many spots. She looks pretty and gentle." Lily says.
+
+They touch the wall and feel the rough and smooth parts. They are having fun.
+
+But then, they hear a loud voice behind them.
+
+"Hey, you kids! What are you doing here? This is my wall! Get away from it!" The voice says.
+
+Tom and Lily turn around and see a big man with a can in his hand. He looks angry and scary. He is the one who made the colors on the wall.
+
+"Sorry, mister, we did not know. We just wanted to see the colors. They are very nice." Lily says.
+
+"Nice? They are not nice! They are art! And you are not allowed to touch them! You are ruining them!" The man says.
+
+He walks towards them and raises his can. He is going to spray them with the can.
+
+Tom and Lily are afraid. They think the man is dangerous. They run away from the wall and back to the park.
+
+They find their mom and dad and tell them what happened. Their mom and dad hug them and say they are glad they are safe.
+
+They say they should not go near the wall again. They say the wall is not for playing. They say the man is not nice.
+
+Tom and Lily agree. They say they are sorry. They say they will not go near the wall again.
+
+They say they will find another place to play. A place that is safe and fun. A place that is for them.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play in the yard. They pretend to be hunters and look for wild animals. They have a toy gun and a camera. They want to record what they see.
+
+One day, they see a big bird in a tree. It has red and blue feathers. It makes a loud noise. Tom and Sam think it is a parrot. They want to record it.
+
+"Shh, don't scare it away!" Tom whispers to Sam. He holds the camera and tries to get closer.
+
+"I want to shoot it!" Sam says. He holds the toy gun and aims at the bird.
+
+"No, don't do that! It is not nice!" Tom says. He tries to stop Sam.
+
+But Sam pulls the trigger. The toy gun makes a bang. The bird gets scared and flies away.
+
+Tom is angry. He drops the camera and pushes Sam. "You ruined it! You scared the bird away! We can't record it now!"
+
+Sam is sad. He drops the toy gun and cries. "I'm sorry! I just wanted to play!"
+
+They start to fight. They hit and kick each other. They make a lot of noise.
+
+Mom hears them and comes out. She sees them fighting. She is not happy. She stops them and scolds them. "What are you doing? Why are you fighting? You are supposed to be hunters, not fighters!"
+
+Tom and Sam feel ashamed. They say sorry to each other and to Mom. They hug and make up.
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them. She says, "It's okay. I love you both. But next time, be more careful and kind. Don't scare the animals. They are wild and free. You can record them, but don't hurt them."
+
+Tom and Sam nod and agree. They pick up their toys and go inside. They decide to watch a video of parrots instead. They learn more about the wild birds. They think they are beautiful and smart. They hope to see one again.
+Lily and Tom are at the shop with Mom. They want to buy a toy. Lily sees a doll with a pink dress and long hair. She likes it very much. She picks it up and asks Mom, "Can I have this, please?"
+
+Mom looks at the doll and the price tag. She shakes her head. "No, Lily, this is too much money. We have to save for other things. Put it back, please."
+
+Lily feels sad and angry. She does not want to put the doll back. She wants to keep it. She starts to cry and shout. "No, no, no! I want it, I want it, I want it!"
+
+Tom hears Lily and feels embarrassed. He does not like it when she makes a lot of noise. He thinks she is being silly and rude. He says to her, "Stop it, Lily. You are being a baby. You can't have everything you want. Be quiet, please."
+
+Lily does not listen to Tom. She cries louder and louder. She holds the doll tight and does not let go. Mom tries to calm her down, but she does not stop.
+
+The other people in the shop hear Lily and look at her. They shake their heads and frown. They think she is being naughty and spoiled. They whisper to each other and point at her.
+
+Lily does not care what they think. She only wants the doll. She does not see how embarrassed Mom and Tom are. She does not see how they wish she would stop. She only sees the doll with the pink dress and long hair. She thinks it is the best thing in the world.
+Tommy loves his pet dog, Spot. Spot is incredible. He can run fast, jump high, and play fetch. Tommy likes to give Spot treats and hugs. Spot likes to give Tommy licks and wags.

+But then, he sees a mean boy. The mean boy has a stick. He goes to Spot and hits him with the stick. Spot yelps and runs away. Tommy sees this and feels angry. He shouts at the mean boy.
+
+"Stop it! That is my pet! He is incredible! You are bad!"
+
+The mean boy laughs and hits Spot again. Spot cries and hides behind a tree. Tommy runs to him and hugs him. He tells him he is sorry and he loves him.
+
+The mean boy sees this and feels sorry too. He realizes he was wrong. He goes to Tommy and Spot and says,
+
+"I am sorry. I was mean. I like your pet. He is incredible. Can I give him a treat?"
+
+Tommy thinks for a moment. He sees the mean boy is sorry. He decides to forgive him. He says,
+
+"Okay. You can give him a treat. But you have to be nice to him. He is my friend."
+
+The mean boy nods and gives Spot a treat. Spot wags his tail and licks his hand. The mean boy smiles and says,
+
+"Thank you. He is a good pet. Can we be friends too?"
+
+Tommy smiles and says,
+
+"Okay. We can be friends. But you have to be nice to everyone. Everyone is incredible."
+
+The mean boy agrees and they play together. Spot joins them and they have fun. They slide, run, and fetch. They feel happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes they missed the ball and it rolled away. They had to be careful not to step on the flowers or the bugs.
+
+One time, the ball rolled too far and went into the street. Lily and Ben ran after it, but they did not look for cars. A big car was coming fast and honked its horn. Lily and Ben were scared and stopped. The car stopped too, but it hit the ball and made it pop.
+
+The driver of the car got out and looked at the ball. He was angry and said, "You kids are very naughty! You could have caused an emergency! You should never run into the street without looking! This ball is heavy and could have damaged my car!"
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry and said, "We are sorry, mister. We did not mean to be naughty. We just wanted our ball. We will be more careful next time."
+
+The driver of the car calmed down and said, "Well, I'm glad you are okay. But you need to learn to be safe. Here, take this money and buy a new ball. And remember, always look both ways before you cross the street."
+
+Lily and Ben thanked the driver and took the money. They said goodbye to the driver and walked back to the park. They decided to play on the swings instead of with the ball. They learned their lesson and never ran into the street again.

+
+They reach the bench. But the bench is too high. They cannot sit on the bench. They are sad.
+
+"Maybe we can stretch," Anna says. She has an idea. She stands on her toes. She lifts her arms. She tries to reach the bench.
+
+Ben does the same. He stands on his toes. He lifts his arms. He tries to reach the bench.
+
+They stretch and stretch. But they still cannot sit on the bench. They are tired.
+
+"Maybe we can ask for help," Ben says. He has another idea. He sees a man. The man is tall and kind. He walks near the bench.
+
+"Excuse me, sir," Ben says. He waves his hand. He smiles.
+
+The man sees Ben and Anna. He smiles too. He walks to them.
+
+"Hello, little ones," the man says. He bends down. He looks at them.
+
+"Can you help us, please?" Anna says. She points to the bench. She makes a sad face.
+

+
+The man nods. He understands. He picks up Anna and Ben. He puts them on the bench. He smiles.
+
+"Here you go," the man says. He winks. He waves.
+
+"Thank you, sir!" Anna and Ben say. They are happy. They sit on the bench. They clap their hands.

+"Look, Lily, I can make a sun with orange and yellow," Tom says. He draws a big circle and some lines.
+
+"That is nice, Tom. I can make a flower with pink and purple," Lily says. She draws a small circle and some petals.
+
+They draw more things on the blackboard. They match the colors to make them pretty. They are happy.
+
+But then, the teacher comes in. She sees the blackboard. She is very angry. She shouts at Tom and Lily.
+
+"What have you done? You have ruined the blackboard! You are not supposed to draw on it! You are very naughty! Go to the corner and stay there!"
+
+Tom and Lily are scared. They drop the chalks. They run to the corner. They feel very bad. They are pale. They cry. They wish they did not draw on the blackboard. They are sorry.
+Anna liked to collect rocks. She had many rocks of different shapes, sizes and colors. She put them in a big box in her room. She liked to look at them and make patterns with them.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom and saw a boy playing with rocks. He had some rocks that Anna did not have. She wanted them. She walked over to him and said, "Give me your rocks. They are mine."
+
+The boy was surprised and scared. He said, "No, they are not yours. They are mine. I found them here. Go away."
+
+Anna was angry. She tried to grab the rocks from the boy, but he held them tight. They started to fight. Their moms heard them and came over.
+
+"What is going on here?" Anna's mom asked.
+
+"Anna wants my rocks. She says they are hers. But they are not. They are mine," the boy said.
+
+"Anna, is that true?" Anna's mom asked.
+
+Anna nodded. She did not want to share. She wanted all the rocks.
+
+"Anna, that is not nice. You cannot take things that belong to someone else. You have to ask first. And you have to respect other people's feelings. How would you feel if someone took your rocks?" Anna's mom said.
+
+Anna thought for a moment. She remembered how much she loved her rocks and how sad she would be if someone took them. She felt sorry for the boy. She said, "I'm sorry. I was wrong. I should not have tried to take your rocks. Can we be friends?"
+
+The boy smiled. He said, "It's okay. I forgive you. We can be friends. Do you want to play with my rocks? We can make patterns together."
+
+Anna nodded. She said, "Yes, I would like that. Thank you. And maybe I can show you my rocks too. They are different from yours. We can learn from each other."
+
+The boy agreed. They went to a shady spot and played with their rocks. They made patterns of stars, flowers, animals and letters. They had fun and learned new things. Their moms watched them and smiled. They were proud of their children.
+
+The moral of the story is: You should not be greedy and selfish. You should be kind and respectful. You should share and learn from others. You can make new friends and have more fun that way.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. They run and jump and slide. They have fun.
+
+One day, they see a weird thing in the park. It is big and round and shiny. It has four wheels and a stick. It makes a loud noise.
+
+"What is that?" Tim asks.
+
+"I don't know," Sam says. "Let's go and see."
+
+They run to the weird thing. They touch it. It is hard and cold. They look inside. They see seats and buttons and a wheel.
+
+"Can we go inside?" Tim asks.
+
+"Maybe," Sam says. "But be careful."
+
+They open the door. They climb inside. They sit on the seats. They play with the buttons. They turn the wheel.
+
+"Vroom, vroom!" Tim says.
+
+"Beep, beep!" Sam says.
+
+They pretend they are driving. They have fun.
+
+But they don't know that the stick is the key. And the key is in the stick. And the stick is on. And the weird thing is a car.
+
+Suddenly, the car moves. It speeds out of the park. It goes on the road. It goes fast.
+
+"Help!" Tim and Sam scream.
+
+They are scared. They don't know how to stop the car. They don't know where they are going.
+
+They see people and cars and lights. They hear horns and sirens and shouts.
+
+They wish they never went inside the car. They wish they stayed in the park. They wish they were safe.
+
+They hope someone will help them. They hope someone will stop the car. They hope they will be okay.
+Anna and Ben were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big mushroom growing under a tree. They wanted to touch it and see what it felt like.
+
+"Look, a mushroom!" Anna said. "Can we pick it?"
+
+"I don't know," Ben said. "Maybe it is not good to pick. Maybe it is someone's home."
+
+But Anna did not listen. She ran to the mushroom and pulled it hard. The mushroom came out of the ground, but it was not a mushroom. It was a balloon that someone had tied to a stick.
+
+POP!
+
+The balloon burst and made a loud noise. Anna and Ben were scared and dropped the balloon. They looked around and saw many people staring at them. Some people laughed and some people frowned. Anna and Ben felt very embarrass.
+
+"Hey, you two!" a voice said. "What are you doing with my balloon?"
+
+It was a man who had been sitting on a bench. He had a hat and a coat and a bag. He looked angry and walked towards them.
+
+"We are sorry, mister," Ben said. "We thought it was a mushroom. We did not mean to pop it."
+
+The man did not care. He grabbed the stick and the balloon and hit Anna and Ben with them. He hit them hard and made them cry. He did not stop until a lady came and stopped him.
+
+"Stop it, you brute!" the lady said. "How can you be so mean to these children? They made a mistake, but they are sorry. You should be compassionate, not cruel."
+
+The lady hugged Anna and Ben and took them away from the man. She gave them some candy and a band-aid and told them not to worry. She said she would tell their parents what happened and help them.
+
+But Anna and Ben were still sad and hurt. They wished they had never seen the mushroom. They wished they had listened to Ben. They wished the man had been nice. They learned a hard lesson that day. The end.
+Bunny and Fox were friends who liked to play in the forest. One day, they saw a big tree with a hole in it. Bunny was curious and wanted to go inside.
+
+"Wait, Bunny," Fox said. "I don't think it is safe. There might be something scary in there."
+
+"Don't be silly, Fox," Bunny said. "It is just a tree. I want to see what is inside. Maybe there are some nuts or berries."
+
+Bunny hopped to the hole and peeked in. He saw a dark and cozy nest. He smiled and said, "See, Fox? There is nothing to be afraid of. It is a nice place to rest. I recommend you come with me."
+
+Fox was still unsure, but he did not want to lose his friend. He followed Bunny and crawled into the hole. He saw the nest and felt a soft fur under his paws. He thought it was a pillow.
+
+But it was not a pillow. It was a tail. A big, long, striped tail. And it belonged to a tiger. A hungry tiger.
+
+The tiger woke up and saw the two intruders. He roared and showed his sharp teeth. He was not modest. He was proud and angry. He did not like anyone to disturb his sleep.
+
+Bunny and Fox were very scared. They tried to run away, but it was too late. The tiger was faster and stronger. He caught them and ate them.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben were playing hide and seek in the park. It was a cold day and the wind was blowing hard. Lily was the seeker and she counted to ten. Then she opened her eyes and looked around. Where was Ben?
+
+She saw a big barrel near the fence. Maybe Ben was hiding inside. She ran to the barrel and peeked inside. She saw Ben curled up in a corner. He was shivering and his teeth were chattering.
+
+"Ben, are you okay?" Lily asked. She was worried about her friend.
+
+"I'm cold, Lily. I thought the barrel would be warm, but it's not. It's full of ice and snow," Ben said. He was sad and scared.
+
+Lily felt sorry for Ben. She climbed into the barrel and hugged him. She rubbed his back and his arms. She tried to make him feel better.
+
+"Don't worry, Ben. I'm here with you. We'll get out soon and find our mommies. They'll give us hot chocolate and cookies. You'll be warm and happy again," Lily said. She smiled and kissed his cheek.
+
+Ben smiled back and hugged her. He felt a little warmer and happier. He was glad Lily was his friend. They waited in the barrel until their mommies came and found them. They were happy to see them and ran to their arms. They said sorry for hiding too long and too far. Their mommies said it was okay and they loved them. They took them home and gave them hot chocolate and cookies. They were warm and happy again. They thanked Lily and Ben for being good friends. They said they had a fun day, but next time they would hide in a warmer place.
+Lily and Sam were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They had a lot of fun on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. They also liked to look for bugs and flowers in the grass.
+
+One day, they saw a big truck in the park. It had a lot of boxes and bags on it. They were curious. They ran to the truck and asked the man who was driving it.
+
+"Hello, mister. What are you doing?" Lily asked.
+
+"Hello, kids. I am here to supply the park with new toys and books. Do you want to see?" the man said.
+

+
+"Wow, these are so cool! Can we play with them?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. But you have to share with the other kids, okay?" the man said.
+
+"Okay, we will. Thank you, mister!" Sam said.
+
+The man smiled and gave them each a toy and a book. He said he had to go and supply the other parks with more cool things. He waved goodbye and drove away.
+
+Lily and Sam were very happy. They ran to the bench and started to play with their new toys and books. They also showed them to the other kids and made new friends. They had the best day ever in the park.

+"What is this?" Tom asks, holding the poem.
+
+"It is a poem. It is words that sound nice and make you feel something," Mia says.
+
+"Can you read it?" Tom asks.
+
+Mia shakes her head. "No, I can't. But I can look at the pictures. They are pretty."

+
+They put the poem in their backpacks. They are happy. They are strong friends. They hug each other and say goodbye. They go home with their poem.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play together. One day, they saw a big jar of candy on the table in the kitchen. They wanted some candy, but they knew their mom said no.
+
+"Let's take some candy when mom is not looking," Ben whispered to Lily. "She will not know."
+
+Lily was scared. She did not want to steal candy. Stealing was bad. She shook her head. "No, Ben. We should not steal. Mom will be sad and angry."
+
+Ben did not listen. He was greedy. He waited until mom went to the bathroom. Then he ran to the table and grabbed a handful of candy. He stuffed some in his mouth and some in his pocket. He smiled. He thought he was clever.
+
+But mom saw him. She came back from the bathroom and saw Ben with candy. She was very mad. She took the candy from him and scolded him. "Ben, you stole candy! That is very naughty. You have to say sorry and go to your room. No candy for you today."
+
+Ben felt ashamed. He said sorry to mom and to Lily. He went to his room and cried. He wished he had not stolen candy. He wished he had been a regular friend to Lily.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play together. Today, Lily invites Ben to her house. She has a new video. It is about animals.
+
+"Welcome, Ben!" Lily says. "Do you want to watch my video?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Ben says. He is excited. He likes animals too.
+
+They go to the living room. Lily's mom helps them. She puts the video in the player. She turns on the TV.
+
+"Look, Ben!" Lily says. "There are lions and tigers and bears!"
+
+"Wow!" Ben says. "They are big and strong and scary!"
+
+They watch the video. They see many animals. They learn their names and sounds. They have fun.
+
+"Thank you, Lily!" Ben says. "I like your video!"
+
+"You're welcome, Ben!" Lily says. "I'm glad you like it!"
+
+They hug and smile. They are happy. They are good friends.
+Ben was a spoiled boy. He always wanted to have the best toys and the most fun. He did not like to share or wait for his turn. He did not listen to his mom or dad or teacher.
+
+One day, Ben saw a big helicopter in the sky. It was flying over his house and making a loud noise. Ben was amazed by the helicopter. He wanted to have one too. He ran to his mom and said, "Mom, mom, I want a helicopter! Give me a helicopter now!"
+
+His mom was busy cooking in the kitchen. She said, "Ben, you can't have a helicopter. That's a silly thing to ask for. Helicopters are very expensive and dangerous. They are not for children. You have plenty of toys to play with. Go and play with them."
+
+But Ben did not like his mom's answer. He threw a tantrum. He screamed and cried and kicked his feet. He said, "No, no, no! I want a helicopter! I want a helicopter! You are a bad mom! You don't love me!"
+
+His mom was very sad and angry. She said, "Ben, stop it! You are being very rude and selfish. You are a spoiled boy. You don't appreciate what you have. You need to learn to be grateful and respectful. Go to your room and think about what you did. You are not getting a helicopter or anything else until you say sorry and behave better."
+
+Ben did not want to go to his room. He wanted to have a helicopter. But his mom was stronger than him. She picked him up and carried him to his room. She closed the door and left him alone. Ben was still crying and shouting. He did not understand why he could not have a helicopter. He did not realize how lucky he was to have a mom who loved him and cared for him. He did not know how to be happy with what he had. He was a spoiled boy.

+One day, they are playing outside when they see the sky change color. It is sunset time. The sky is red and orange and pink and purple. It is very pretty.
+
+"Look, Liz, look!" Tim says. "The sky is like a big painting. Do you like it?"
+
+"Yes, Tim, I like it. It is beautiful. Can we make a painting like that?" Liz says.

+"Spot, no, no, no!" Tim and Liz say. "You ruined our painting. Go away, Spot. Bad dog!"
+
+But Spot does not understand. He thinks they are having fun. He barks and rolls on the floor. He wants more cuddles.
+
+Tim and Liz are sad and angry. They look at their paper. It is not a painting anymore. It is a pile of scraps. They cannot make a new one. The sunset is gone. The sky is dark.
+
+They start to cry. They hug each other. They wish Spot would leave them alone.
+
+But then, they hear a voice. It is their mom. She comes in and sees them. She sees the paper and the crayons and the dog. She knows what happened.
+
+"Oh, Tim and Liz, I'm sorry. Spot was naughty. He did not mean to hurt your painting. He just wanted to play with you. He loves you very much. And so do I. Come here, my sweeties. Let me give you a hug and a kiss. And maybe a cookie, too. How about that?"
+
+Tim and Liz stop crying. They look at their mom. They see her smile. They feel her hug and kiss. They smell the cookie. They feel better.
+
+They look at Spot. He looks at them. He wags his tail. He looks sorry. He looks cute.
+
+They smile at Spot. They forgive him. They pat his head. They share their cookie with him. They love him, too.
+
+They are happy again. They forget about the painting. They have something better. They have their mom and their dog and each other. They have a family.
+Sara was sick. She had a fever and a cough. Her mom gave her a pill to make her feel better. Sara did not like the pill. It was big and bitter. She hid the pill under her tongue and waited for her mom to leave.
+
+When her mom was gone, Sara spit out the pill. She threw it in the trash. She thought she was smart. She did not want to take the pill.
+
+But Sara did not get better. She got worse. She was pale and weak. She could not play or eat. Her mom was worried. She took Sara to the doctor.
+
+The doctor looked at Sara. He asked her, "Did you take the pill your mom gave you?"
+
+Sara was scared. She lied. She said, "Yes, I did."
+
+The doctor shook his head. He said, "No, you did not. I found the pill in the trash. You were naughty. You did not listen to your mom. You lost the chance to get well soon. Now you need a shot."
+
+Sara cried. She was sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry, doctor. I was wrong. I should have taken the pill. Please forgive me."
+
+Her mom hugged her. She said, "I forgive you, Sara. But you have to learn from your mistake. You have to do what is good for you. You have to trust me. I love you and I want you to be healthy."
+
+Sara nodded. She said, "I love you too, mom. I will do what you say. I will take the pill next time."
+
+The doctor gave Sara a shot. It hurt, but it helped. Sara felt better. She learned her lesson. She never lied or hid the pill again. She was a good girl.
+Ben and Lily like to play in the park. They run and jump and slide and swing. One day, they see a big pile of stones. They want to see what it is.
+
+They climb on the stones and look around. They see a door with a picture on it. Lily says, "It is a temple. It is a place where people pray." Ben says, "Let's go inside and see."
+
+They push the door and it opens. They go inside and see many things. They see statues and candles and paintings. They see a big book with thick pages. They want to touch it.
+
+They walk to the book and reach for it. But they do not see a rope on the floor. They stumble on the rope and fall. The book falls too. It makes a loud noise.
+
+The noise wakes up a man who is sleeping in the corner. He is the keeper of the temple. He is angry. He says, "Who are you? What are you doing here? You are not allowed to touch the book. It is very old and sacred. Go away!"
+
+Ben and Lily are scared. They get up and run to the door. They go out of the temple and back to the park. They do not play with the stones anymore. They say, "Sorry, temple. Sorry, man. We did not mean to be bad."
+One day, a little girl named Mia looked out of the window and saw a big white cloud in the sky. She thought it looked like a fluffy cake and she wanted to eat it. She asked her mom, "Mom, can I eat the cloud?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "No, Mia, you can't eat the cloud. The cloud is made of water and air, not cake. If you try to eat the cloud, you will get wet and cold."
+
+But Mia did not listen to her mom. She put on her boots and coat and ran outside. She climbed on a ladder and reached for the cloud. She opened her mouth and tried to bite the cloud.
+
+But the cloud was not happy. The cloud was angry that Mia tried to eat it. The cloud made a loud noise and sent rain and thunder to Mia. Mia got wet and scared and ran back inside.
+
+Her mom saw Mia and gave her a towel and a hug. She said, "Mia, I told you not to eat the cloud. The cloud is not for eating, it is for watching and dreaming. Next time, listen to your mom, okay?"
+
+Mia nodded and said, "Okay, mom. I'm sorry. I won't eat the cloud again. Can I have some cake instead?"
+
+Her mom laughed and said, "Yes, Mia, you can have some cake. But only after you dry your hair and change your clothes."
+
+Mia smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you too, Mia. And I love the cloud, even when it is angry."
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park with their mom. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big hill with a zip line. A zip line is a rope that you can hold and go fast from one side to the other.
+
+"Can we try the zip line, mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. It is very high and fast. You have to wear a helmet and a belt to be safe," mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom put on the helmets and belts. Lily went first. She held the rope and jumped. She felt the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She was happy and brave.
+
+"Wow, that was fun!" she said when she reached the other side.
+
+Tom was next. He held the rope and jumped. But he was scared. He felt the rope shake and the ground far away. He wanted to stop.
+
+"Help, help! I don't like this!" he cried.
+
+Mom heard him and ran to the other side. She caught him and hugged him.
+
+"It's okay, Tom. You are safe now. I'm proud of you for trying something new. But you don't have to do it again if you don't want to," she said.
+
+Tom was glad to see mom. He was still scared, but he felt better.
+
+"Thank you, mom. I'm sorry I cried. I like the slide better," he said.
+
+Mom smiled and kissed him.
+
+"That's okay, Tom. Everyone has different things they like and don't like. The important thing is to be kind and respectful to yourself and others. And to have fun," she said.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They learned that it is good to try new things, but it is also okay to say no if they are too scary. They went back to the slide and had more fun. They were happy and safe.
+Tom and Amy were brother and sister. They liked to play in the snow. One day, they made a big snowman in the yard. They gave him a hat, a scarf, and a carrot nose. They were very happy.
+
+They went inside to get some cocoa. Mom made it for them. It was hot and sweet. They each had a big mug. They sat on the couch and drank their cocoa. They felt warm and cozy.
+
+"Can we go back to the snowman?" Amy asked. "He must be cold."
+
+"Okay, but hurry up. It will be dark soon," Mom said.
+
+Tom and Amy put on their coats and boots. They ran outside. But they saw something bad. The snowman was gone. There was only a pile of snow. And the hat, the scarf, and the carrot nose were on the ground.
+
+"What happened?" Amy cried.
+
+"Look, there are footprints," Tom said. He followed them. They led to the fence. He saw a boy on the other side. The boy had a big smile. He was holding a stick.
+
+"Hey, you!" Tom shouted. "Did you break our snowman?"
+
+The boy laughed. "Yes, I did. It was fun. Your snowman was stupid. You are stupid too."
+
+Tom was very angry. He threw his mug at the boy. The mug hit the boy on the head. The boy fell down. He screamed.
+
+"Tom, what did you do?" Amy asked. She was scared.
+
+Tom ran back to the house. He told Mom what happened. Mom was very upset. She called the boy's mom. She said sorry. She said Tom was wrong. She said Tom had to say sorry too.
+
+Tom did not want to say sorry. He said the boy was mean. He said the boy deserved it. He said he did not care.
+
+Mom was very sad. She said Tom was naughty. She said Tom had to go to his room. She said Tom could not have any more cocoa. She said Tom had to think about what he did.
+
+Tom went to his room. He was still angry. He did not think he was wrong. He did not think he was naughty. He did not think he had to say sorry. He did not think he had to think.
+
+But he was wrong. He was wrong to break the boy's head. He was wrong to be angry. He was wrong to be naughty. He was wrong to not say sorry. He was wrong to not think.
+
+He did not know it, but he was very stupid.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not break other people's things. Do not hurt other people. Do not be angry. Do not be naughty. Say sorry when you are wrong. Think before you act. Do not be stupid.

She wished she had not made mom mad. She wished she had not ruined the beautiful soup.
+Tom and Lily liked to play hide and seek in the living room. They used the cushions from the sofa to make forts and tunnels. They took turns to count and find each other.
+
+One day, Tom had a silly idea. He put a big cushion over his head and sat on the floor. He thought Lily would not see him. He waited for her to come and look for him.

+Lily counted to ten and opened her eyes. She saw the cushion on the floor and smiled. She knew Tom was hiding under it. She walked over and lifted the cushion. But Tom was not there!
+
+Lily was surprised and confused. Where did Tom go? She looked around the room, but she could not find him. She called his name, but he did not answer. She wondered if he had vanished.
+
+Tom was hiding behind the curtain. He had crawled out from under the cushion when Lily was not looking. He wanted to trick her and make her think he had vanished. He heard her call his name and giggled. He thought he was very clever.
+
+But then he heard a loud noise. It was his mom coming home. She opened the door and saw the mess in the living room. She saw the cushions on the floor and the curtain moving. She was not happy.
+
+She walked over and pulled the curtain. She saw Tom hiding behind it. She scolded him for making a mess and being silly. She told him to help her clean up and to say sorry to Lily.
+
+Tom felt bad. He realized he had not been clever, but mean. He had scared Lily and made her worry. He came out from behind the curtain and hugged Lily. He said sorry and told her he had not vanished. He said he would not do it again.
+
+Lily forgave him. She was glad he was not gone. She hugged him back and said it was okay. They helped their mom clean up and put the cushions back on the sofa. They decided to play a different game next time.
+Lily liked to watch the sun rise every morning. She would wake up early and put on her pink vest. Then she would go to the window and see the sky change colors. She thought the sun was a big yellow ball that played with the clouds.
+
+One day, she asked her mom, "Why does the sun rise, mom?"
+
+Her mom smiled and hugged her. "The sun rises because it wants to say hello to us, Lily. It gives us light and warmth and makes the flowers grow."
+
+Lily nodded and looked at the flowers in the garden. They were delicate and pretty, like her mom. She wanted to pick some for her mom, but she remembered what her mom said. "Don't touch the flowers, Lily. They are fragile and need water and sun. If you pick them, they will die."
+
+Lily felt sad. She loved the flowers, but she loved her mom more. She wanted to give her mom a gift. She thought hard and had an idea. She ran to her room and got her crayons and paper. She drew a picture of the sun, the sky, the clouds and the flowers. She wrote "I love you, mom" with big letters.
+
+She ran back to her mom and gave her the picture. Her mom was surprised and happy. She kissed Lily and said, "Thank you, Lily. This is the best gift ever. I love you, too."

+The big ship was so happy and grateful to all the boats that helped. It realized that it didn't need to be bossy to get things done. Sometimes, it's better to work together and help each other. And from that day on, the big ship felt much happier and kinder towards the other boats on the sea.
+Once upon a time, a woman named Lily went to the park. She saw a little girl crying. Lily asked the girl, "Why are you crying?" The girl said, "I lost my doll. It's my own doll and I can't find it."
+
+Lily said, "Don't be embarrassed, I lose things too. Let's find your doll together." They looked and looked but they couldn't find it. Then, they saw a boy playing with a doll. The girl said, "That's my doll! He took it!" 
+
+Lily went to the boy and said, "That doll belongs to this girl. Please give it back." The boy said, "I didn't know. I'm sorry." He gave the doll back and the little girl was happy again. She said, "Thank you, Lily. You helped me find my own doll."
+Tom likes to go to the pond with his dad. They take bread and fish food to feed the fish. Tom sees many fish in the water. Some are big and some are small. Some are red and some are blue.
+
+Tom breaks the bread into small pieces. He throws them into the pond. The fish come to eat the bread. They splash and jump. Tom laughs and claps. He likes to watch the fish.
+
+Dad gives Tom some fish food. It is thick and sticky. Tom makes a ball with the fish food. He throws it into the pond. But the ball is too big. It does not break. It sinks to the bottom.
+
+The fish do not see the ball. They do not eat it. Tom is sad. He wants the fish to eat his ball. He asks dad to get it back. Dad says no. He says the ball is gone. He says they have to go home.
+
+Tom cries. He does not want to go home. He wants his ball. He wants the fish to eat his ball. He does not understand why the fish do not like his ball. He thinks the fish are mean. He does not like the fish.
+Sara liked to play with her toy car. She made it go fast and slow, left and right, on the floor and on the sofa. She liked to make it beep and honk, and pretend it was a real car.
+
+One day, she found a button on the car that she had never seen before. It was red and shiny, and it said "reverse". She wondered what it did. She pressed it, and something strange happened. The car started to go backwards, but not on the floor. It went backwards in time!
+
+Sara saw the car go back to yesterday, when she had a tea party with her dolls. She saw the car go back to last week, when she went to the park with her mom. She saw the car go back to last month, when she got the car for her birthday. She saw the car go back to last year, when she was a baby. She saw the car go back and back and back, until it was gone.
+
+Sara was scared and sad. She wanted her car back. She wanted to play with it again. She cried and cried, and called for her mom.
+
+Her mom came and hugged her. She asked her what was wrong. Sara told her about the button and the car and the time. Her mom looked surprised and confused. She said, "That's not possible, Sara. That's not an ordinary car. That's a magic car. Where did you get it?"
+
+Sara remembered. She got it from a man at the fair. He had a big hat and a long coat, and he smiled a lot. He said he had a special car for her, and he gave it to her for free. He said it was a secret, and she should not tell anyone. He said it was a fun car, and she should enjoy it.
+
+Sara realized she had made a mistake. She should not have taken the car. She should not have pressed the button. She should have told her mom. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was silly. I want my car back. Can we get it back?"
+
+Her mom said, "I don't know, Sara. I don't know where the car is. I don't know how to reverse the time. I don't know how to fix this. But I love you, Sara. And I will try to help you. Maybe we can find the man at the fair. Maybe he can help us. Maybe he can bring the car back. Maybe he can make everything normal again."
+
+Sara nodded. She hoped her mom was right. She hoped they could find the man. She hoped they could get the car back. She hoped they could play with it again. She hoped it was just a bad dream. She hoped it was not too late.
+Lily was a little frog who loved to hop. She hopped on the grass, on the rocks, on the flowers and on the pond. She hopped so much that sometimes she got tired and thirsty. But she always found a nice spot to rest and drink some water.
+
+One day, Lily saw something new in the pond. It was big and round and colorful. It looked like a flower, but it was not a flower. It was an umbrella. Someone had left it there by mistake. Lily was curious and wanted to see it closer. She hopped on the umbrella and felt how soft and dry it was. She liked it very much.
+
+But then, the sky turned dark and the rain started to fall. Lily heard the thunder and saw the lightning. She was scared and wanted to go back to her home. But the rain was too heavy and the pond was too deep. She could not hop back to the shore. She felt trapped and sad.
+
+Then, she remembered the umbrella. She opened it and held it over her head. The umbrella kept her dry and safe from the rain. She felt warm and cozy under the umbrella. She was grateful for the umbrella. She thought it was a gift from someone who cared for her.
+
+She waited under the umbrella until the rain stopped. Then, she saw a little girl come to the pond. She was looking for her umbrella. She saw Lily and smiled. She said, "Hello, little frog. You found my umbrella. Thank you for taking care of it. Do you want to keep it?"
+
+Lily nodded and croaked. She was happy and thankful. The little girl was happy and kind. She said, "You can keep it, little frog. It is yours now. I hope you enjoy it. Goodbye, little frog."
+
+She waved and left. Lily waved and hopped. She hopped on the umbrella, on the grass, on the rocks, on the flowers and on the pond. She hopped with joy and gratitude. She had a new friend and a new umbrella. She loved to hop.
+Tommy loved to play with his stamps. He had many stamps with different pictures on them. He liked to stamp them on paper and make cards for his mom and dad. He had a blue stamp with a star on it. It was his favorite stamp.
+
+One day, Tommy saw a big box in the living room. He wondered what was inside. He asked his mom, but she said it was a surprise. She told him not to touch it. She said it was for his birthday. Tommy was curious, but he listened to his mom. He went to his room to play with his stamps.
+
+The next day, Tommy's mom went to the store. She told Tommy to stay in his room and not to go near the box. She said she would be back soon. Tommy said okay, but he was still curious. He wanted to see what was in the box. He thought maybe it was a toy or a book or a cake. He decided to sneak out of his room and take a peek.
+
+He tiptoed to the living room and looked at the box. It was big and brown and had a bow on it. He lifted the lid and saw something shiny and round. It was a ball. A big, blue ball. Tommy was happy. He loved balls. He took the ball out of the box and bounced it on the floor. It made a loud noise. He bounced it again and again. He had fun.
+
+He did not see his stamp on the floor. He had dropped it when he took the ball out of the box. He did not hear his mom come back from the store. He did not hear her scream when she saw the mess. He did not feel the ball hit his stamp and destroy it. He only saw the ball fly in the air and land on the couch. He only heard a pop and saw the ball burst. He only felt the air blow on his face and the water splash on his clothes. He only saw his mom's angry face and heard her yell. He only knew he was in trouble. He only wished he had listened to his mom. He only missed his blue stamp with the star on it. It was his favorite stamp.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. They saw a big onion on the counter. Lily wanted to cut it with a knife.
+
+"Can I cut the onion, Ben?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, Lily, you are too little. The knife is sharp. You can hurt yourself," Ben said.
+
+"But I want to cut the onion. It looks fun," Lily said. She reached for the knife.
+
+Ben tried to stop her, but it was too late. Lily cut the onion and it made her eyes water. She felt a sting in her finger. She dropped the knife and the onion.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Lily screamed. "The onion is bad. It hurts me."
+
+Ben ran to get their mom. He saw blood on Lily's finger. He was scared.
+
+"Mom, mom, help! Lily cut the onion and her finger. She is screaming," Ben said.
+
+Mom came quickly. She saw Lily crying and holding her finger. She saw the knife and the onion on the floor. She picked up Lily and hugged her.
+
+"Shh, shh, it's okay, Lily. I'm here. You are brave. Let me see your finger," Mom said.
+
+She wrapped a thick cloth around Lily's finger. She kissed her cheek.
+
+"You need to be careful, Lily. The onion is not bad. It just makes your eyes water. But the knife is dangerous. You can't use it without me or dad. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+Lily nodded. She was sorry. She hugged Mom.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom. I won't cut the onion again. I love you," Lily said.
+
+"I love you too, Lily. And I love you, Ben. Thank you for getting me. You are a good brother," Mom said.
+
+She smiled at Ben. He smiled back. He was glad Lily was okay. He hugged Mom and Lily.
+
+They all went to the living room. They watched a funny show on TV. They laughed and snuggled. They forgot about the onion. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily are playing in the garden. They see some green plants with small leaves. Lily says, "Look, these are herbs. They smell good and make food tasty."
+
+Tom picks one and puts it in his mouth. He makes a face and spits it out. He says, "Yuck, this herb is bad. It is bitter and sour. I don't like it."
+
+Lily laughs and says, "That is not a herb, silly. That is a weed. You should not eat weeds. They can make you sick. Herbs are in the pots over there. They have different colors and shapes."
+
+Tom says, "I don't care. I want to try another weed. Maybe it will be sweet and yummy." He reaches for another plant.
+
+Lily says, "No, Tom, don't do that. Please listen to me. I know more about herbs and weeds than you. You will regret it if you eat another weed."
+
+Tom says, "No, Lily, you don't know everything. I want to find out for myself. I insist on eating another weed." He grabs a plant with purple flowers and bites it.
+
+Lily says, "Tom, stop, that is a bad weed. That is lavender. It is not for eating. It is for smelling and making soap. It will make your mouth dry and your tongue numb."
+
+Tom says, "Too late, Lily, I already ate it. Oh, no, you are right. This weed is bad. It is worse than the first one. It tastes like soap and perfume. It makes my mouth feel funny. I need some water. Help me, Lily, help me."
+
+Lily says, "I told you so, Tom. You should have listened to me. Come on, let's go to the kitchen and get some water. And no more eating weeds, okay?"
+
+Tom says, "Okay, Lily, I'm sorry. You are smarter than me. You are a good friend. Next time, I will listen to you. And maybe you can teach me about herbs and how to use them."
+
+Lily says, "Sure, Tom, I will teach you. But first, let's get some water and wash your mouth. And maybe some honey to make it better."
+
+They run to the kitchen and drink some water and honey. They feel better and hug each other. They learn their lesson and never eat weeds again. They only eat herbs when they are in food or tea. They enjoy playing in the garden and smelling the flowers. They are happy and curious, but also careful and wise.
+Jen and Sam were twins who liked to go to the mall with their mom. They liked to see the toys, the books, and the animals. But they did not like to ride in the car. The car was too fast, too loud, and too bumpy.
+
+One day, mom said they had to go to the mall to buy some things. Jen and Sam did not want to go. They cried and kicked and said no. Mom was not happy. She said they had to go or they would get no treats.
+
+Jen and Sam got in the car, but they were still mad. They did not buckle their seat belts. They did not listen to mom. They did not look out the window. They just crossed their arms and pouted.
+
+Mom drove to the mall, but she could not find a parking spot. She had to drive around and around. She was getting tired and frustrated. She saw a spot near the entrance, but it was very small. She had to reverse the car to fit in.
+
+"Beep, beep, beep," the car made a noise as mom reversed. Jen and Sam heard the noise and looked up. They saw a big truck behind them. The truck was very close to the car. They saw the truck driver waving his arms and yelling. They got scared.
+
+"Mom, mom, stop!" they shouted. "There is a truck! It will hit us!"
+
+Mom heard them and stopped. She looked in the mirror and saw the truck. She was relieved that she did not hit it. She was also angry that the truck driver was rude. She rolled down the window and said, "Hey, can't you see I'm trying to park? You need to back up and give me some space!"
+
+The truck driver heard her and said, "Sorry, lady, but you need to learn how to drive! You can't reverse into such a difficult spot! You're blocking the way for everyone!"
+
+Mom and the truck driver started to argue. They said mean things to each other. Jen and Sam felt bad. They did not like to see mom angry. They did not like to hear the truck driver yell. They wished they had been good and not made mom upset.
+
+They decided to say sorry to mom and help her. They buckled their seat belts and said, "Mom, we're sorry we were naughty. We love you. We will be good at the mall. Please don't be mad."
+
+Mom heard them and smiled. She said, "Thank you, Jen and Sam. I love you too. I'm sorry I was mad. Let's forget about the truck driver and have some fun at the mall."
+
+Mom found another parking spot and parked the car. She got out and hugged Jen and Sam. They got out and held mom's hand. They walked to the mall and saw the toys, the books, and the animals. They had a good time and got some treats. They were happy.
+One day, Ben and Lily went to the park with their dad. They saw a big truck with a loud horn. The truck was carrying a huge stone that looked very old.
+
+"What is that, dad?" Ben asked.
+
+"That is an ancient stone, Ben. It is from a very old time, when people made big pictures and shapes with stones," dad said.
+
+"Wow, can we see it?" Lily said.
+
+"Sure, let's follow the truck and see where it goes," dad said.
+
+They walked behind the truck until it reached a big museum. The truck driver got out and talked to a man in a uniform.
+
+"Hello, I have the ancient stone for the new exhibit. Where do you want me to put it?" the truck driver said.
+
+"Hello, thank you for bringing it. You can put it in the back yard, near the big crane. Just reverse the truck and be careful not to hit anything," the man in the uniform said.
+
+The truck driver got back in the truck and started to reverse. He looked in his mirror and saw Ben, Lily and dad behind him. He honked his horn and waved at them.
+
+"Beep beep! Hello, kids! Do you like the ancient stone?" he said.
+
+"Yes, we do! It is very big and cool!" Ben and Lily said.
+
+"Can we touch it?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, you can touch it, but be gentle. It is very old and fragile," the truck driver said.
+
+He stopped the truck and opened the back door. He let Ben, Lily and dad climb up and see the ancient stone. It was gray and rough, and had some strange marks on it.
+
+"What are those marks, dad?" Ben asked.
+
+"Those are symbols, Ben. They are like letters, but different. They tell a story about the people who made the stone," dad said.
+
+"What story, dad?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. Maybe the museum people can tell us. They know a lot about ancient things," dad said.
+
+"Can we go inside the museum and see more ancient things, dad?" Ben and Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, let's go. But first, let's say thank you to the truck driver for showing us the ancient stone," dad said.
+
+"Thank you, truck driver!" Ben and Lily said.
+
+"You're welcome, kids! Have fun in the museum!" the truck driver said.
+
+He closed the back door and drove away. Ben, Lily and dad waved at him and then went inside the museum. They saw many more ancient things, like pots, coins, statues and paintings. They learned a lot and had a great time. They loved the ancient things and the sky blue truck.
+Tom is a chubby boy who likes to keep things in his desk. He has many toys, books, and stickers that he puts in his desk. He does not like to share them with anyone. He thinks they are his and only his.
+
+One day, his friend Lily comes to his house to play. Lily sees Tom's desk and wants to see what is inside. She asks Tom if she can look at his things. Tom says no. He says they are his and only his. He does not want Lily to touch them.
+
+Lily feels sad. She thinks Tom is not a good friend. She says she has things in her backpack that she can share with Tom. She has a ball, a puzzle, and a cookie. She says they can play with the ball and the puzzle, and eat the cookie together.
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He likes balls, puzzles, and cookies. He thinks maybe he can share some of his things with Lily too. He says he is sorry for being mean. He says he can show Lily his things, and they can play with them together.
+
+Lily smiles. She says she is happy that Tom is a good friend. They open Tom's desk and Lily's backpack, and find many things to play with. They have fun and share everything. They learn that keeping things is not as good as sharing things.
+Lily liked to design things. She had many crayons and papers and stickers. She made pictures of flowers and stars and animals. She liked to show her designs to her mom and dad and brother.
+
+One day, Lily went to the zoo with her family. She saw many animals that she had never seen before. She saw lions and monkeys and penguins and snakes. She liked them all, but her favorite was the otter.
+
+The otter was brown and furry and had a long tail. It swam in the water and played with a ball. It made funny noises and splashed Lily. Lily laughed and clapped. She wanted to make a design of the otter.
+
+She asked her mom for a paper and a crayon. She drew a big circle for the otter's body and a smaller circle for its head. She added ears and eyes and a nose and a mouth. She drew a long line for the tail and some waves for the water. She colored the otter brown and the water blue. She was proud of her design.
+
+She showed her design to the otter. The otter looked at it and made a noise. Lily thought it liked her design. She showed it to her mom and dad and brother. They said it was very good and very cute. They said Lily was a great designer. Lily smiled and hugged her design. She was happy.

+
+"Let's cut the log with this axe," Ben says. He picks up the axe and swings it at the log.
+
+"Be careful, Ben," Sam says. "The axe is sharp. You can hurt yourself."
+
+Ben nods. He hits the log again and again. He makes a big crack. He is happy.
+
+"Look, Sam, I did it!" Ben says. He shows Sam the crack.
+
+"Good job, Ben," Sam says. He smiles. "Now we can zip the log with this rope. Then we can drag it to our fort."
+
+Sam gets the rope. He ties it around the log. He pulls one end. Ben pulls the other end. They zip the log to their fort.
+
+They work hard. They make a nice fort. They are proud.
+
+"This is our fort," Ben says. "It is fair. We can share it."
+
+"Yes, it is our fort," Sam says. "It is fair. We are friends."
+
+They hug. They go inside the fort. They play. They have fun.
+Lila and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had many toys, but they liked to make new ones from junk. Junk was things that were old or broken, like boxes, cans, bottles, and paper. They used tape, glue, and scissors to make junk into cars, robots, animals, and houses.
+
+"Look, I made a car from a box and four cans!" Ben said, showing Lila his junk car. "It can go fast and make loud noises. Vroom, vroom!"
+
+"That's a nice car, Ben," Lila said. "But I made a robot from a bottle and some paper. It can talk and dance. Beep, beep!"
+
+They both laughed and played with their junk toys. They pretended to have races, battles, and parties with them. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, their mom came in and said, "Lila and Ben, it's time to finish playing and clean up. We have to go to the park soon."
+
+Lila and Ben did not want to stop playing. They wanted to make more junk toys. They said, "But mom, we're not done yet. We have more junk to use. Please, can we play a little more?"
+
+Mom shook her head and said, "No, you have to finish now. You have played enough with junk. You have to put it away in the trash or the recycling bin. You can play with your other toys at the park. Come on, be good and help me clean up."
+
+Lila and Ben sighed. They knew mom was right. They had to finish playing and clean up. They picked up their junk toys and put them in the right bins. They said goodbye to their junk toys and thanked them for the fun. They said, "Maybe we can make more junk toys another day."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "You did a good job, Lila and Ben. You are very creative and smart. But you also have to be responsible and tidy. I'm proud of you. Now, let's go to the park and have more fun."
+
+Lila and Ben nodded and followed mom to the car. They were a little sad to leave their junk toys, but they were also excited to go to the park. They knew they would find more things to play with there. They were tough and happy kids.
+Sara was very sleepy. She did not want to get up from her bed. She heard her mom call her name. "Sara, it is time to wake up. You have school today."
+
+Sara pulled the blanket over her head. She did not open her eye. She said, "No, mom. I want to sleep more."
+
+Mom came into her room. She smiled and sat on the bed. She gently lifted the blanket and kissed Sara's cheek. She said, "Sara, I know you are sleepy. But you have to open your eye and get ready. You have many fun things to do at school. You can play with your friends, read books, draw pictures, and learn new words."
+
+Sara opened one eye and looked at mom. She saw mom's kind face. She felt mom's warm hug. She said, "Okay, mom. I will get up. But can you help me?"
+
+Mom nodded and said, "Of course, Sara. I will help you. Come on, let's brush your teeth, comb your hair, and put on your clothes. Then we can have breakfast and go to school."
+
+Sara opened both her eye and got out of bed. She followed mom to the bathroom. She felt happy and excited. She said, "Thank you, mom. You are the best mom ever."
+Tom and Lily went to the lake with their dad. They wanted to play in the water and see the fish. Dad brought a big kayak for them to ride. He said it was like a boat, but smaller and faster.
+
+Tom was excited to try the kayak. He helped dad unpack it from the car and carry it to the shore. He put on a life jacket and a helmet and climbed inside. He grabbed a paddle and waited for dad to push him.
+
+Lily was fearful of the kayak. She thought it looked scary and wobbly. She did not want to go in the water. She stayed on the sand and watched Tom and dad. She hugged her teddy bear and shook her head.
+
+"Come on, Lily, it's fun!" Tom shouted from the kayak. "Don't be afraid, I'll show you how to do it!"
+
+"No, thank you, Tom, I don't like it!" Lily shouted back. "I like the sand and the sun!"
+
+Dad smiled and said, "That's okay, Lily, you can stay here if you want. Maybe next time you'll feel more brave. Tom and I will be back soon. We'll have a picnic and play some games. Do you want to help me unpack the basket?"
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She liked picnics and games. She was happy to help dad unpack the basket. She hoped Tom and dad would have fun in the kayak, but she was glad she did not have to go. She felt safe and cozy on the sand.
+Lily and Ben love to play outside. They like to run, jump, and swing. They have a lot of fun with their friends. Sometimes they play games and win medals. Medals are shiny and make them happy.
+
+One day, they see dark clouds in the sky. They hear a loud noise. It is thunder. They feel drops of water on their faces. It is rain. Rain is wet and cold. They do not like rain. They run to their house. They are sad. They cannot play outside.
+
+But then, Lily has an idea. She says to Ben, "Let's play inside. We can make a fort with blankets and pillows. We can pretend we are in a castle. We can use our medals as treasure. We can be playful and have fun."
+
+Ben likes the idea. He says, "Yes, let's do that. We can also read books and draw pictures. We can make stories and jokes. We can be playful and have fun."
+
+They go to their room and start to play. They forget about the rain. They are happy. They are playful. They have fun.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the farm. They see a mule in the barn. The mule is big and brown. It has long ears and a rough coat.
+
+"Can we pet the mule?" Lila asks Ben.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is nice," Ben says.
+
+They go to the barn. They see the mule lying on the hay. It looks sleepy.
+
+"Hello, mule. Can we pet you?" Lila says.
+
+She reaches out her hand. The mule opens its eyes. It does not like Lila. It kicks her hard. Lila falls down. She cries.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! The mule hurt me!" Lila says.
+
+Ben runs to Lila. He tries to help her. He is scared.
+
+"Help, help! Lila is hurt!" Ben shouts.
+
+The farmer hears Ben. He comes to the barn. He sees Lila and Ben. He sees the mule.
+
+"What happened here?" the farmer asks.
+
+"The mule kicked Lila. She is hurt," Ben says.
+
+The farmer picks up Lila. He takes her to the house. He calls the doctor.
+
+The doctor comes. He looks at Lila. He says she has a broken arm. He puts a cast on her arm. He gives her some medicine.
+
+Lila is sad. She has to stay in bed. She can't play with Ben. She can't pet the animals. She hates the mule.
+
+The mule is bad. It lies in the barn. It does not care. It does not say sorry.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their puppy, Max. Max is brown and soft and likes to run and jump.
+
+One day, Tom and Sam find a big box in the garage. They wonder what is inside. They ask their mom if they can open it.
+
+"No, boys, that box is not for you. It is for dad. He will open it when he comes home. It is a surprise," mom says.
+
+Tom and Sam are curious. They want to see the surprise. They wait until mom goes to the kitchen. Then they sneak to the garage with Max.
+
+They lift the box. It is hard and heavy. They shake it. It makes a loud noise. They hear a voice.
+
+"Hey, who is there? Let me out!"
+
+Tom and Sam are scared. They drop the box. Max barks.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She runs to the garage. She sees the box on the floor. She sees Tom and Sam and Max.
+
+"What are you doing, boys? You should not touch the box. You could have hurt yourself or the surprise," mom says.
+
+She opens the box. She pulls out a man. He is wearing a uniform. He has a big smile.
+
+"Dad!" Tom and Sam shout. They hug him.
+
+"Surprise! I am home from work. I missed you so much," dad says.

+They have a fun afternoon. They play with dad and Max. They forget about the hard box. They only remember the happy surprise.
+Anna liked to wander in the park with her mom. She saw many things that made her happy. She saw birds, flowers, trees and dogs. She liked to say hello to them.
+
+One day, she saw a pond in the park. She had never seen a pond before. She wanted to go closer and look at it. She saw water, rocks, fish and frogs. She liked to watch them swim and jump.
+
+She asked her mom if she could touch the pond. Her mom said yes, but be careful. She said the pond was healthy and clean, but also deep and cold. She said Anna should not go in the pond, only touch it with her hand.
+
+Anna listened to her mom. She walked to the edge of the pond and reached out her hand. She felt the water. It was wet and cool. She smiled and giggled. She saw a fish come near her hand. She said hello to the fish. The fish said hello back with a splash.

+
+But then, they heard a loud noise. It was a band of people with drums and horns. They were doing a march for a special day. Jen and Ben wanted to see the march. They got out of the pile and ran to the road.
+
+"Look, Ben, they have flags and hats!" Jen said.
+
+"Yes, and they make music!" Ben said.
+
+They watched the march and clapped their hands. They liked the colors and the sounds. They wanted to join the march.
+
+But they did not see the wet spot on the road. It was from a water hose that someone left on. Jen stepped on the wet spot and slipped. She fell down and hurt her knee. She cried out loud.
+
+"Jen, are you okay?" Ben asked.
+
+He tried to help her, but he also slipped on the wet spot. He fell down and hurt his elbow. He cried out loud too.
+
+The march stopped and the people looked at them. They felt sorry for the twins. They helped them get up and gave them band-aids and hugs. They said they were brave and good.
+
+Jen and Ben thanked them and smiled. They still liked the march, but they did not want to join it anymore. They learned to be careful on the road. They went back to the pile of leaves and played some more. They had a terrible slip, but a good day.
+Sam and Mia were walking on the road with their mom. They saw a large dog with brown fur and a long tail. The dog was barking and running after a cat.
+
+"Look, mom, a dog!" Sam said.
+
+"Be careful, Sam. The dog might be angry," mom said.
+
+Mia liked the dog. She wanted to pet it. She ran towards the dog and said, "Hi, doggy! You are so cute!"
+
+The dog did not like Mia. He did not want her to touch him. He snapped at her hand and made her cry.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Mia said.
+
+Mom ran to Mia and picked her up. She checked her hand and saw a small bite. She was angry at the dog.
+
+"Bad dog! Go away!" mom said.
+
+The dog ran away. He was scared of mom. He did not want to bite Mia. He just wanted to catch the cat.
+
+Mom hugged Mia and said, "I'm sorry, Mia. The dog hurt you. Are you okay?"
+
+Mia nodded. She was still crying. She said, "I'm okay, mom. But I don't like the dog. He is mean."
+
+Sam came to Mia and said, "Don't worry, Mia. The dog is gone. He won't hurt you again. You are brave."
+
+Mia smiled. She said, "Thank you, Sam. You are nice."
+
+Mom said, "Let's go home, kids. We will put some cream on your hand and give you a cookie. You are both good."
+
+Sam and Mia said, "Okay, mom. We love you."
+
+They held mom's hand and walked on the road. They did not see the dog or the cat again. They were happy.
+Tim and Mia are playing in the kitchen. They like to open and close the cabinet doors. They make loud noises with the pots and pans.
+
+"Look, Mia, I can do this!" Tim says. He bangs a pot with a spoon. "Bang, bang, bang!"
+
+Mia laughs. She grabs a pan and a lid. She claps them together. "Clap, clap, clap!"
+
+They have fun making loud noises. They do not hear Mom coming.
+
+"Tim, Mia, what are you doing?" Mom asks. She is not happy. She sees the mess in the kitchen. The cabinet doors are open. The pots and pans are everywhere.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Tim and Mia say. They stop making noises. They look at Mom with big eyes.
+
+Mom sighs. She loves Tim and Mia, but she does not like the noise. She tells them to clean up the kitchen. She helps them put the pots and pans back in the cabinet. She closes the cabinet doors.
+
+"Next time, please play quietly," Mom says. "Or play in your room."
+
+Tim and Mia nod. They hug Mom. They say they love her. They go to their room. They play with their toys. They do not make loud noises. They are good children.
+Lena and her mom went to the market. They saw many things to buy. Lena liked the apples, the flowers and the toys. Her mom liked the bread, the cheese and the eggs.
+
+They walked around the market and saw an elderly man. He had a cane and a hat. He was selling books. Lena liked books. She wanted to buy one.
+
+"Mom, can I buy a book?" Lena asked.
+
+"Sure, Lena. Let's see what he has." Her mom said.
+
+They went to the elderly man and said hello. He smiled and showed them his books. He had books with pictures, books with stories and books with songs.
+
+Lena looked at the books and picked one. It had a picture of a dog on the cover. She liked dogs.
+
+"I want this one, mom." Lena said.
+
+"Okay, Lena. How much is it, sir?" Her mom asked.
+
+"It's two coins, ma'am. It's a good book. It has a story about a dog and his friends." The elderly man said.
+
+"Here you are, sir. Thank you." Her mom gave him two coins and took the book.
+
+"Thank you, ma'am. Enjoy the book, Lena." The elderly man said.
+
+"Thank you, sir. Bye." Lena said.
+
+Lena and her mom waved goodbye to the elderly man and left the market. Lena was happy. She had a new book to read. She hugged the book and said to her mom:
+
+"I love you, mom. And I love books."
+Lila and Ben were playing with their blocks. They liked to build towers and bridges and houses. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes.
+
+"Look, I made a big tower!" Lila said, showing Ben her creation. "It is taller than you!"
+
+Ben smiled and clapped his hands. He wanted to make a tower too. He picked up some blocks and started to stack them. But he had a problem. His blocks kept falling down. He tried again and again, but he could not make a tower.
+
+"Why can't I make a tower?" Ben asked, feeling troubled. "You can do it, but I can't. It is not fair!"
+
+Lila saw that Ben was sad. She wanted to help him. She looked at his blocks and saw that they were all round. Round blocks were hard to set on top of each other. They rolled and slipped and crashed.
+
+"Ben, I have an idea," Lila said. "Why don't you use some of my blocks? They are not round. They are square and rectangle and triangle. They are easier to set and they don't roll. You can make a tower with them."
+
+Ben looked at Lila's blocks. They were different from his. They had corners and edges and sides. He wondered if they would work. He decided to try. He took some of Lila's blocks and set them on his round blocks. They did not roll. They stayed in place. He added more and more blocks, making his tower taller and taller.
+
+"Wow, you did it!" Lila said, cheering for Ben. "You made a tower! It is taller than mine!"
+
+Ben felt happy. He thanked Lila for sharing her blocks. He liked her blocks. They were fun to play with. He liked Lila too. She was a good friend.
+
+They hugged and smiled. They had made two towers. They were proud of their work. They were not troubled anymore. They were happy.
+Lily was hungry. She wanted toast for breakfast. She asked her mom, "Can I have toast, please?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Yes, you can have toast. But first, you have to mind your brother. He is still sleeping. Be quiet and gentle with him, okay?"
+
+Lily nodded. She loved her brother. He was small and cute. She went to his room and saw him in his crib. He was snoring softly. Lily tiptoed to his side and whispered, "Hello, brother. I am Lily. Do you want to wake up and play with me?"
+
+Brother opened his eyes and smiled. He reached out his hand and grabbed Lily's hair. He pulled hard. Lily cried out, "Ow, ow, ow! That hurts! Let go of my hair!"
+
+Mom heard Lily's cry and ran to the room. She saw brother holding Lily's hair and Lily looking sad. She said, "Oh, no! Brother, you have to be nice to Lily. She is your sister. She is not a toy. You have to let go of her hair. Say sorry to Lily."
+
+Brother let go of Lily's hair and said, "Sorry, Lily." He looked sorry, too. He gave Lily a hug and a kiss. Lily felt better. She hugged and kissed him back. She said, "It's okay, brother. I forgive you. You are strong, but you have to be gentle, too."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "That's right, brother. You are strong, but you have to be gentle. And Lily, you are brave, but you have to be patient. You are both good kids. Now, let's go and have some toast. I made it for you. It is warm and yummy. Do you want butter and jam on it?"
+
+Lily and brother said, "Yes, please!" They followed mom to the kitchen. They ate their toast and drank their milk. They were happy and full. They thanked mom for the toast. Mom said, "You're welcome. I love you both. Now, what do you want to do today?"
+
+Lily and brother looked at each other and said, "Play!" They ran to the living room and picked up their toys. They played together nicely. They shared and took turns. They laughed and had fun. Mom watched them and smiled. She was proud of them. She thought, "They are growing up so fast. They are learning so much. They are my sweet and smart kids."
+Ben and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. Ben had a red car and Lily had a yellow doll. They were happy and shared their toys.
+
+But then, a big boy came in. He was Lily's cousin and he was mean. He saw Ben's red car and he wanted it. He ran to Ben and grabbed the car. He said, "This is mine now. You can't have it."
+
+Ben was sad and angry. He tried to get his car back, but the big boy was stronger. He pushed Ben away and ran to the door. He was going to steal Ben's car.
+
+Lily saw what happened and she wanted to help Ben. She had an idea. She ran to the big boy and bit his thumb. The big boy screamed and dropped the car. He said, "Ow! You little monster! That hurts!"
+
+Lily picked up the car and gave it to Ben. She said, "Here, Ben. This is your car. It is important to you. Don't let him take it."
+
+Ben smiled and hugged Lily. He said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. You are important to me."
+
+The big boy ran away, crying and sucking his thumb. He learned a lesson. He should not steal other people's toys.
+Anna liked to examine things. She liked to look at them very closely and touch them and smell them and sometimes taste them. She wanted to learn about everything in the world. One day, she found a big jar of salt in the kitchen. She wondered what it was and how it felt and tasted.
+
+She opened the jar and poured some salt on her hand. It was white and tiny and sparkly. She rubbed it between her fingers and felt it was rough and scratchy. She brought it to her nose and sniffed it. It smelled like nothing. She stuck out her tongue and licked it. It tasted very bad. It was salty and bitter and made her mouth dry. She spat it out and made a face. She did not like salt at all.
+
+She wanted to put the salt back in the jar, but she spilled some on the floor. She was afraid that her mom would be angry. She looked around and saw a broom and a dustpan. She thought she could sweep the salt away and no one would know. But then she remembered that her mom always told her to be honest and tell the truth. She knew that lying was wrong and that her mom would love her even if she made a mistake.
+
+She decided to be brave and tell her mom what she did. She picked up the jar and the broom and the dustpan and went to find her mom. She told her that she was sorry and that she was just curious and that she did not like salt. Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said that she was proud of her for being honest and that she would help her clean up the mess. She also said that she would show her some other things that she could examine that were more fun and less salty. Anna felt happy and relieved. She learned that honesty was the best policy and that salt was not for tasting.
+Lily was a new girl in school. She was shy and scared. She did not know anyone. She sat at a desk in the back of the room. She looked at the other kids. They looked happy and loud. They had friends.
+
+"Hi, I'm Ben. What's your name?" A boy came to her desk. He had a big smile and brown hair. He had a toy car in his hand.
+
+Lily did not answer. She looked down at her desk. She felt a knot in her tummy. She wanted to go home.
+
+"Are you okay? Do you want to play with my car?" Ben asked. He put the car on her desk. He was kind. He wanted to be her friend.
+
+Lily looked at the car. It was red and shiny. She liked cars. She looked at Ben. He was still smiling. He did not laugh at her or tease her. He was nice.
+
+She nodded. She took the car and made a vroom sound. Ben laughed. He made a vroom sound too. They played with the car on the desk. They had fun.
+
+Lily felt the knot in her tummy go away. She smiled at Ben. She said, "I'm Lily. Thank you for the car."
+
+Ben smiled back. He said, "You're welcome, Lily. I'm glad you like it. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, I do. You are a good friend."
+
+They hugged. They were happy. They had met a new friend.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big red car that they could ride in the yard. They liked to pretend they were going on adventures and exploring new places.
+
+One day, their mom told them they had to take a test at school. She said it was important to learn new things and do well on the test. Ben and Lily did not want to take the test. They wanted to play with their car. They thought the test was boring and hard.
+
+"Let's skip the test and play with our car," Ben said to Lily. "We can hide in the yard and no one will find us."
+
+Lily was scared. She knew their mom would be angry if they did not go to school. She also wanted to learn new things and do well on the test. But Ben was persistent. He kept asking her to play with him and said the test was silly.
+
+"Okay, fine," Lily said. "But only for a little while. Then we have to go to school."
+
+Ben and Lily took their car and rode to the farthest corner of the yard. They had fun playing and pretending. They forgot about the time and the test. They did not hear their mom calling them to get ready for school.
+
+Soon, they felt tired and sleepy. They decided to take a nap in their car. They closed their eyes and fell asleep.
+
+When they woke up, it was dark and cold. They heard their mom crying and their dad shouting. They saw flashing lights and heard sirens. They were scared and confused.
+
+They got out of their car and ran to their mom and dad. They hugged them and said they were sorry. They told them they were playing and napping and did not mean to skip the test.
+
+Their mom and dad were relieved but also angry. They told them they were very worried and called the police to look for them. They told them they missed the test and had to go to school the next day. They told them they were in big trouble and had to go to bed without dinner.
+
+Ben and Lily felt sad and ashamed. They realized they made a big mistake. They wished they had listened to their mom and gone to school. They learned that playing is fun, but not when it makes you miss important things. They learned that being persistent is good, but not when it makes you do bad things. They learned that taking a test is not so bad, but skipping it is.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big bird on a tree. The bird has many colors. It is red, blue, green and yellow. Lily and Ben admire the bird.
+
+"Wow, look at the bird!" Lily says. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Yes, it is!" Ben says. "I wish I could fly like the bird."
+
+The bird hears them and says, "Hello, little ones. Do you want to fly with me?"
+
+Lily and Ben are surprised. They did not know the bird can talk. They think the bird is funny.
+
+"Can you really talk?" Lily asks.
+
+"Of course I can," the bird says. "I can also sing and dance. Do you want to hear me?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Ben says.
+
+The bird sings a song. It is a song about the sky, the sun, the clouds and the rain. The bird has a nice voice. Lily and Ben clap their hands.
+
+"That was a good song!" Lily says.
+
+"Thank you," the bird says. "Do you want to know a secret?"
+
+"What secret?" Ben asks.
+
+The bird leans closer and whispers, "I am not a real bird. I am a toy bird. A nice man made me. He gave me a voice and colors. He also gave me a name. My name is Rainbow."
+
+Lily and Ben are amazed. They did not know the bird is a toy. They think the bird is very clever.
+
+"Wow, that is a big secret!" Lily says.
+
+"Yes, it is," the bird says. "But you are my friends. I can tell you the truth. Can you keep my secret?"
+
+"Of course we can," Ben says. "We are your friends too. We like you, Rainbow."
+
+"I like you too," Rainbow says. "You are very kind and sweet. Do you still want to fly with me?"
+
+"Yes, we do!" Lily and Ben say.
+
+Rainbow smiles and says, "Then hold on to my wings. I will take you for a ride. It will be fun!"
+
+Lily and Ben hold on to Rainbow's wings. Rainbow flaps his wings and flies up in the air. Lily and Ben laugh and cheer. They fly with Rainbow over the park. They see the trees, the flowers, the swings and the slides. They see other children and animals. They have a lot of fun.
+
+They fly with Rainbow until the sun sets. Then Rainbow brings them back to the ground. He says goodbye to Lily and Ben.
+
+"Thank you for flying with me," Rainbow says. "You are the best friends I ever had."
+
+"Thank you for flying with us," Lily and Ben say. "You are the best bird we ever met."
+
+They hug Rainbow and say, "We will see you again, Rainbow. We will come back to the park."
+
+"I will wait for you," Rainbow says. "I will always be here. Goodbye, Lily and Ben."
+
+"Goodbye, Rainbow," Lily and Ben say.
+
+They wave to Rainbow and run back to their homes. They are happy. They have a new friend. They have a new secret. They have a new adventure. They will always remember Rainbow, the toy bird.
+Anna loved math. She was brilliant at math. She could add, subtract, and count very well. She always got good marks on her math tests. She was proud of herself.
+
+But one day, she had a big math test. She was nervous. She wanted to do well. She studied hard. She practiced a lot. She was ready.
+
+She went to school. She got her math test. She looked at the questions. They were hard. She tried to remember what she learned. She wrote down her answers. She finished her test. She gave it to her teacher.
+
+She waited for her mark. She hoped she did well. She wanted to be brilliant at math.
+
+But when she got her mark, she was sad. She lost marks. She made mistakes. She did not do well. She was not brilliant at math. She felt bad.
+
+She went home. She told her mom. Her mom hugged her. She said, "It's okay, Anna. You don't have to be brilliant at math. You just have to try your best. Math is hard. Sometimes you lose marks. Sometimes you make mistakes. That's how you learn. You can always improve. You can always practice. You can always ask for help. You are still brilliant at many things. You are still my brilliant Anna."
+
+Anna felt better. She thanked her mom. She realized her mom was right. She did not have to be brilliant at math. She just had to try her best. She learned from her mistakes. She practiced more. She asked for help. She improved. She did better on her next math test. She was happy.
+
+The moral of the story is: You don't have to be brilliant at everything. You just have to try your best. You can learn from your mistakes. You can improve. You can be happy.
+Anna was an adventurous girl. She liked to explore new places and find new things. One day, she went to the park with her mom and saw a big hill. She wanted to climb it and see what was on the other side.
+
+She asked her mom if she could go. Her mom said yes, but told her to be careful and come back soon. Anna ran to the hill and started to climb. She used her hands and feet and pushed herself up. She felt strong and happy.
+
+When she reached the top, she saw a beautiful lake. It was blue and shiny and had ducks and fish. She also saw a big tree with a swing. She wanted to try it. She ran to the tree and sat on the swing. She pushed herself back and forth and felt the wind in her hair. She laughed and sang.
+
+She was having so much fun that she forgot about the time. She did not hear her mom calling her name. She did not see the dark clouds in the sky. She did not feel the first drops of rain.
+
+Suddenly, a loud thunder made her jump. She looked up and saw the storm. She was scared and wet. She wanted to go back to her mom. She got off the swing and ran to the hill. But the hill was slippery and muddy. She fell and hurt her knee. She cried and called for her mom.
+
+Her mom heard her and came to help her. She picked her up and hugged her. She said it was okay and that she was brave. She cleaned her knee and put a band-aid on it. She carried her to the car and drove her home.
+
+Anna was still sad and sore. She did not want to be adventurous anymore. She wanted to lie on her bed and cuddle with her teddy bear. Her mom gave her a kiss and a cookie and told her a story. She said that everyone makes mistakes and learns from them. She said that Anna had a wonderful memory of the lake and the swing. She said that Anna was still adventurous and that she was proud of her.
+
+Anna felt better and smiled. She thanked her mom and hugged her. She said that she loved her and that she was sorry. She said that she still liked to explore and find new things, but that she would listen to her mom and be careful. She said that she had a good memory of the park and that she would go back someday.
+
+She ate her cookie and lie on her bed. She closed her eyes and dreamed of the lake and the swing. She was happy and peaceful. She was adventurous and smart.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they received a big box from their grandma. They were very happy and curious to see what was inside.
+
+"Let's open it together!" Tom said to Lily.
+
+"OK!" Lily agreed. They ripped the paper and lifted the lid. Inside, they saw a shiny red bike with two wheels and a bell.
+
+"Wow! A bike!" Tom exclaimed. He wanted to try it right away. He grabbed the bike and ran outside.
+
+"Wait for me!" Lily shouted. She followed him with her teddy bear.
+
+Tom was very excited to ride the bike. He put his feet on the pedals and pushed hard. He went very fast and felt the wind in his hair. He rang the bell and smiled.
+
+Lily watched him and wanted to ride the bike too. She asked Tom to share.
+
+"Can I have a turn, please?" Lily said.
+
+"OK, but be careful. The bike is big and you are small." Tom said. He got off the bike and helped Lily to get on.
+
+Lily put her teddy bear on the handlebar and held it tight. She tried to pedal, but she was clumsy. She wobbled and lost her balance. She fell off the bike and hurt her shoulder.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Lily cried. She dropped her teddy bear and rubbed her shoulder.
+
+Tom heard her cry and ran to her. He felt sorry for her and hugged her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. Are you OK?" Tom said.
+
+"It hurts, Tom. It hurts a lot." Lily said.
+
+Tom picked up her teddy bear and gave it to her. He kissed her shoulder and said,
+
+"Don't worry, Lily. It will get better soon. I love you, Lily."
+
+"I love you too, Tom." Lily said. She smiled and hugged him back.
+
+They went inside and showed their grandma their bike and their shoulder. Grandma was proud of them and gave them cookies and milk. She said,
+
+"You are very brave, Lily. And you are very kind, Tom. You are the best twins ever."
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many different vehicles, like cars, trucks, planes and trains. They also had a big box where they kept their clothes and hats and shoes.
+
+One day, they decided to play dress-up with their vehicles. They put fancy clothes on their cars and trucks, like dresses and coats and ties. They put hats and glasses on their planes and trains. They pretended they were going to a party with their vehicles.
+
+"Look at my car, Lily," Tom said. "It is so fancy. It has a pink dress and a pearl necklace. It is the prettiest car in the world."
+
+"Look at my plane, Tom," Lily said. "It is so fancy. It has a blue hat and a pair of sunglasses. It is the coolest plane in the world."
+
+They were having so much fun that they did not notice their mom coming into the room. She saw the mess they had made with their clothes and their vehicles. She was not happy.
+
+"Tom and Lily, what are you doing?" she asked. "Why did you hang your clothes on your vehicles? You know you are not supposed to do that. You could ruin your clothes and your vehicles. And you have to share your toys with each other. You cannot just take what you want."
+
+Tom and Lily felt ashamed. They knew they had done something wrong. They said sorry to their mom and to each other. They took off the clothes from their vehicles and put them back in the box. They also decided to swap some of their vehicles, so they could both enjoy different ones.
+
+They learned that it is not good to hang clothes on vehicles, and that it is better to share and be kind. They hugged their mom and their vehicles and went to play some more.
+Lily and Mom were going to visit Grandma in the city. Lily was very excited. She loved Grandma and the city. She wanted to see the big buildings, the cars, the parks and the people.
+
+Mom said, "Lily, we need to pack our bags. Can you help me?" Lily nodded and ran to her room. She found her favorite toys, her books, her clothes and her blanket. She put them all in a big bag. She zipped it up and dragged it to the living room.
+
+"Good job, Lily!" Mom said. "You packed a lot of things. But do you know what we need the most?" Lily shook her head. Mom smiled and hugged her. "We need our masks. The city is not very peaceful right now. There is a bad sickness that makes people cough and sneeze. We have to wear masks to protect ourselves and others. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded. She remembered the masks. She did not like them very much. They were hot and itchy. But she knew they were important. She said, "OK, Mom. I will wear my mask. Can I pick one?" Mom said, "Of course. You can pick any mask you want." Lily ran to the closet and looked for a mask. She saw many colors and patterns. She chose a pink one with flowers. She put it on and smiled.
+
+"Look, Mom! I'm ready!" Lily said. Mom put on her mask too. She said, "You look beautiful, Lily. And very smart. Come on, let's go. Grandma is waiting for us." They took their bags and went to the car. They drove to the city. Lily looked out the window and hoped that the city would be peaceful soon. She wanted to hug Grandma and play with her. She wanted to have fun in the city. She wanted everyone to be happy and healthy.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they find a big box in the park. It is yellow and has a lock.
+
+"Wow, what is in the box?" Lily asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a surprise. Let's open it!" Tom says.
+
+They try to open the box, but it is too hard. They need a key.
+
+"Where can we find a key?" Lily wonders.
+
+"Maybe we can ask someone. Look, there is a man over there. He has a lot of keys on his belt. Maybe he can help us." Tom says.
+
+They run to the man and show him the box. The man smiles and looks at the box.
+
+"Hello, kids. What do you have there?" he asks.
+
+"It is a yellow box. We want to open it. Can you help us?" Lily says.
+
+"Sure, I can help you. But first, you have to tell me something. Where did you find this box?" the man says.
+
+"We found it in the park. It was under a tree. Why?" Tom says.
+
+The man nods and says, "Well, this is a very special box. It belongs to someone who lost it. He is very sad. He is looking for it. He is my friend. He is honest and kind. He put something very important in the box. Do you know what it is?"
+
+Lily and Tom shake their heads. They don't know.
+
+"It is a ring. A very beautiful ring. He wants to give it to his girlfriend. He loves her very much. He wants to ask her to marry him. But he dropped the box in the park and couldn't find it. He asked me to help him. I have the key to the box. Do you want to see the ring?" the man says.
+
+Lily and Tom nod. They want to see the ring. They are curious.
+
+The man takes out a key and opens the box. Inside, there is a shiny ring. It has a big stone that sparkles. It is very pretty.
+
+"Wow, it is so nice!" Lily says.
+
+"It is amazing!" Tom says.
+
+The man smiles and says, "Yes, it is. And you know what? You are very nice, too. You are honest and kind. You told me the truth about the box. You didn't try to keep it or hide it. You wanted to open it, but you also wanted to share it. That is very good. You are good friends. I am proud of you."
+
+Lily and Tom blush. They feel happy and proud.
+
+"Thank you, mister. You are very nice, too. You are a good friend to your friend. We hope he finds his girlfriend and gives her the ring. We hope she says yes. We hope they are happy." Lily says.
+
+"Thank you, kids. You are very sweet. I am sure he will find her and she will say yes. They will be very happy. And you know what? I have a surprise for you. Do you want to see it?" the man says.
+
+Lily and Tom nod. They love surprises.
+
+The man takes out another box from his pocket. It is smaller than the yellow box, but it is also yellow. He opens it and shows them two small rings. They are also shiny and have small stones that sparkle. They are very cute.
+
+"These are for you. They are friendship rings. They are a gift from me and my friend. They are a thank you for being honest and kind. You can wear them and remember this day. You can remember that honesty and kindness are very important. You can remember that you have a friend in me and my friend. Do you like them?" the man says.
+
+Lily and Tom gasp. They love them. They take the rings and put them on their fingers. They hug the man and thank him.
+
+"Thank you, thank you, thank you! We love them! They are beautiful! You are the best!" Lily says.
+
+"Thank you, thank you, thank you! We love them! They are awesome! You are the coolest!" Tom says.
+
+The man hugs them back and says, "You are very welcome. You are the best and the coolest, too. You are wonderful kids. I am happy to meet you. I hope you have a great day. And remember, always be honest and kind. That is the way to be happy."
+
+Lily and Tom smile and say, "We will. We promise. Thank you again. Bye!"
+
+They wave goodbye to the man and run back to the park. They play with their toys and their rings. They are happy and proud. They are honest and kind. They are friends.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big hill with many flowers and trees. They wanted to go there and have fun.
+
+"Let's go to the hill, Lily!" Ben said. "It looks so pretty and nice!"
+
+"OK, Ben!" Lily said. "But we need to wear our jackets. It is cold and windy today."
+
+They put on their jackets and ran to the hill. They saw many birds and bugs and rocks. They picked some flowers and threw some sticks. They were very happy.
+
+But then, they saw something else. It was a big, furry animal with sharp teeth and claws. It was a bear. The bear was hungry and angry. It saw Ben and Lily and growled.
+
+"Look, Lily!" Ben said. "A bear! It is so cute and fluffy! Maybe it wants to play with us!"
+
+"No, Ben!" Lily said. "It is not cute and fluffy! It is scary and dangerous! We need to run away!"
+
+But Ben did not listen. He thought the bear was harmless. He walked towards the bear and tried to touch it. He said, "Hello, bear! Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+The bear did not want to be his friend. The bear wanted to eat him. The bear bit Ben and hurt him very much. Ben screamed and cried. Lily screamed and cried too. She ran to help Ben, but it was too late. The bear had killed Ben.
+
+Lily was very sad and scared. She wished she had not gone to the hill. She wished Ben had listened to her. She wished she had a different brother. She wished she had never seen the bear. She wished she could go back home. But she could not. The bear saw her and chased her. She tried to run, but she was too slow. The bear caught her and ate her too.
+
+The end.
+Tim and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be different animals. Tim had a toy car that he liked very much. It was red and shiny and had four wheels. Lily had a doll that she liked very much. It had long hair and a pretty dress and a hat.
+
+"Look at my car, Lily!" Tim said. "It can go very fast and make loud sounds. Vroom, vroom!"
+
+"Look at my doll, Tim!" Lily said. "She can talk and sing and dance. La, la, la!"
+
+They showed each other their toys and smiled. They were happy to play together.
+
+But then, Tim saw something on the table. It was a yellow candle. It had a flame that was bright and hot. Tim was curious. He wanted to touch it.
+
+"Tim, no!" Lily said. "That is not a toy. That is a candle. It can burn you. It can hurt you. It can make you cry."
+
+But Tim did not listen. He reached for the candle. He touched the flame. He felt a pain in his finger. He screamed.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tim said. "It burns, it burns, it burns!"
+
+Lily ran to him. She hugged him. She tried to make him feel better.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tim," Lily said. "I told you not to touch it. It is not a toy. It is a candle. It is fake fire. It is not good for you."
+
+Tim sobbed. He looked at his finger. It was red and sore. He was sad and angry.
+
+"I don't like the candle," Tim said. "I don't like the yellow. I don't like the fake. I want my car. I want my toy."
+
+Lily nodded. She gave him his car. She took her doll. They went back to the floor. They played with their toys. They forgot about the candle. They were happy again.
+Lily loved to imagine. She liked to pretend she was a princess, a fairy, a doctor, or anything else she could think of. She also loved to dress up in different clothes and accessories. She called it fashion.
+
+One day, she found a big box of old clothes in the attic. She was very happy. She opened the box and saw many things: hats, scarves, dresses, skirts, shirts, shoes, and more. She decided to try them on and make her own fashion show.
+
+She put on a red hat, a green scarf, a yellow dress, and blue shoes. She looked at herself in the mirror and said, "I am a charming lady. I am going to a tea party." She pretended to sip from a cup and talk to her stuffed animals.
+
+Then she changed into a purple shirt, a pink skirt, a white coat, and black boots. She looked at herself in the mirror and said, "I am a charming spy. I am going to solve a mystery." She pretended to sneak around and look for clues with her magnifying glass.
+
+Then she changed into a brown shirt, a blue jeans, a orange jacket, and white sneakers. She looked at herself in the mirror and said, "I am a charming explorer. I am going to discover new places." She pretended to climb a mountain and find a treasure.
+
+She had so much fun with her fashion show. She imagined many stories and adventures. She felt happy and proud of herself. She said, "I can be anything I want to be. I have a big imagination."
+Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big pond with many ducks. They wanted to feed the ducks, but they had no bread.
+
+"Look, there is a pole!" Ben said. He pointed to a long stick near the pond. "Maybe we can use it to get some bread from the trash can."
+
+Lila followed Ben to the trash can. It was filthy and smelly. There were flies and ants on the trash. Ben used the pole to poke the trash and find some bread.
+
+"Here, I found some!" Ben said. He pulled out a piece of bread with the pole. It was green and moldy. "Let's provide it to the ducks. They will like it."
+
+Lila and Ben ran to the pond with the bread. They threw it to the ducks. The ducks came closer and ate the bread. But soon, the ducks started to quack loudly and shake their heads. They looked sick and unhappy.
+
+"Oh no, what did we do?" Lila said. She felt sorry for the ducks. "We gave them bad bread. We made them sick."
+
+Ben felt sorry too. He dropped the pole and started to cry. "We are bad kids. We hurt the ducks."
+
+A man came to the pond. He saw the ducks and the bread. He saw Lila and Ben. He was angry.
+
+"What did you do to the ducks?" he shouted. "You gave them filthy bread. You could have killed them. You are very naughty. You have to go home now. And don't come back to the park."
+
+Lila and Ben were scared. They ran away from the man and the pond. They went home and told their mom what happened. Their mom was sad and mad. She scolded them and sent them to their room. They had no dinner and no toys. They felt very bad. They wished they never saw the pole and the trash can. They wished they never hurt the ducks.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park with their toys. They had a basket full of cars, dolls, balls and books. They liked to share their toys and make up stories.
+
+"Let's pretend we are on a spaceship," Tom said. "We can fly to the moon and see the stars."
+
+"OK," Lily said. "But we have to be careful. There are aliens who want to take our toys."
+
+They put their basket in the middle of the grass and sat around it. They made noises like rockets and lasers. They had fun.
+
+But then, a big dog came running towards them. It was black and furry and had a long tongue. It saw the basket and thought it was food. It jumped on the basket and knocked it over. The toys spilled out and the dog grabbed some in its mouth.
+
+"Hey, stop!" Tom shouted. "Those are our toys!"
+
+"Go away, dog!" Lily cried. "You are bad!"
+
+The dog did not listen. It ran away with the toys, wagging its tail. Lily and Tom chased after it, but it was too fast. They could not catch it.
+
+They stopped and looked at each other. They were sad and angry. The dog had made their toys disappear. They had only a few toys left in the basket. It was difficult to play without their favorite toys.
+
+"Maybe we can find the dog and get our toys back," Tom said.
+
+"Or maybe we can ask our mom and dad to buy us new toys," Lily said.
+
+They hugged each other and walked back to the basket. They hoped the dog would not come back. They decided to play something else. They still had each other.
+Lily liked to play dress-up with her clothes. She had a big wardrobe in her room with many dresses, hats, shoes and scarves. She could be a princess, a pirate, a fairy or anything she wanted.
+
+One day, she wanted to be a dancer. She found a pink tutu, a sparkly top and some ballet shoes in her wardrobe. She put them on and looked at herself in the mirror. She felt very pretty and happy.
+
+She decided to show her dance to her mom and dad. She ran to the living room where they were sitting on the couch. She said, "Look at me, I'm a dancer!" She started to twirl, jump, bend and stretch. She was very flexible and graceful.
+
+Her mom and dad clapped and cheered. They said, "You are a wonderful dancer, Lily! You look so beautiful and talented!" They gave her a big hug and a kiss.
+
+Lily felt very proud and loved. She said, "Thank you, mom and dad! Can I bring my wardrobe to the living room and show you more costumes?" They said, "Of course, sweetie. We love to see you play dress-up. You have a great imagination!" Lily smiled and ran back to her room to bring her wardrobe. She had many more stories to tell with her clothes.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. Sara has a hoop. She can make it roll and jump. Ben wants to try too.
+
+"Can I play with your hoop, Sara?" Ben asks.
+
+"OK, Ben. But be careful. It is my new hoop. It is clean and shiny," Sara says.
+
+Ben takes the hoop. He tries to roll it on the grass. But he is not good at it. The hoop falls down. It gets dirty and wet.
+
+"Oh no! Look what you did, Ben!" Sara cries. "You made my hoop dirty! It is not clean and shiny anymore!"
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara. I didn't mean to. I just wanted to play," Ben says. He feels sad.
+
+Sara sees that Ben is sad. She thinks for a moment. She remembers that Ben is her friend. She does not want to be mad at him.
+
+"It's OK, Ben. We can clean the hoop together. Come on, let's go to the fountain. There is water there. We can wash the hoop and make it clean and shiny again," Sara says.
+
+Ben smiles. He is happy that Sara is not mad at him. He says thank you. They go to the fountain. They wash the hoop. They make it clean and shiny again. Then they play with it some more. They have fun. They are good friends.
+Tim and Sue were friends. They liked to play with toys and run in the park. One day, they found a cell on the ground. It was shiny and had many buttons.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Tim said. "It is a cell. We can talk to people with it."
+
+"Can I see it?" Sue asked. "I want to play with it too."
+
+Tim did not want to share. He wanted to keep the cell for himself. He said, "No, it is mine. I found it first. You can't have it."
+
+Sue was sad. She said, "That is not nice. Friends share. You are a bad friend."
+
+Tim did not care. He said, "I don't need you. I have the cell. Go away."
+
+He ran away with the cell. He smiled. He thought he was smart and lucky.
+
+But he was not. He did not see the car that was coming fast. He ran into the street and the car hit him. He dropped the cell and it broke. He was hurt and scared. He cried for help.
+
+Sue heard him. She ran to him. She was worried and sorry. She said, "Tim, are you okay? I am here. I am your friend."
+
+But Tim did not answer. He was too hurt. He closed his eyes and did not open them again.
+
+Sue was very sad. She wished she could smile with Tim again. She wished he had shared the cell with her. She wished he had been a good friend.
+
+The moral of the story is: Sharing is caring. Be a good friend and don't be greedy. You never know what can happen.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to explore. One day, they went to visit their grandma, who lived on a farm. They saw many animals, like cows, pigs, chickens, and horses. They wanted to see them up close, so they sneaked out of the house when grandma was busy.
+
+They ran to the barn, where they heard some noises. They opened the door and saw a big pile of hay. They climbed on it and started to play. They pretended they were pirates, looking for treasure. They dug and dug, until they found something shiny.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a coin!" Tom said, holding up a silver coin.
+
+"Wow, Tom, that's amazing! Maybe there's more!" Lily said, digging deeper.
+
+They kept digging, until they heard a loud moo. They looked up and saw a cow's head poking out of the hay. The cow looked angry and scared. It had been buried under the hay, and could not move.
+
+"Uh-oh, Tom, we made a mistake. We covered the cow with hay. It can't breathe. It needs help!" Lily said, dropping the coin.
+
+"Oh no, Lily, you're right. The cow is helpless. We have to get grandma. She can help the cow!" Tom said, grabbing Lily's hand.
+
+They ran out of the barn, looking for grandma. They saw her in the garden, picking some carrots. They ran to her and told her what happened.
+
+"Grandma, grandma, we're sorry, we're sorry! We found a coin in the hay, and we dug and dug, and we covered a cow with hay, and it can't breathe, and it needs help!" they said, out of breath.
+
+"Slow down, slow down, children. What did you do?" grandma asked, looking worried.
+
+They repeated their story, and grandma shook her head.
+
+"Oh, children, you should not have gone to the barn without me. That's very dangerous. You could have hurt yourselves or the animals. Come on, let's go and see the cow. I hope it's not too late." she said, taking them by the hand.
+
+They followed grandma to the barn, and saw the cow still stuck in the hay. Grandma took a pitchfork and started to remove the hay. She talked to the cow, trying to calm it down. After a few minutes, the cow was free. It shook its head and mooed. It looked at the children, and licked their faces.
+
+"Thank you, thank you, grandma. You saved the cow. We're sorry, we're sorry, cow. We didn't mean to hurt you. We were just playing." the children said, hugging the cow.
+
+"It's okay, children. The cow is fine. But you have to be more careful next time. The farm is not a playground. It's a place where animals live and work. You have to respect them and their space. Do you understand?" grandma said, smiling.
+
+"Yes, grandma, we understand. We're sorry, grandma. We love you, grandma. We love the farm, and the animals." the children said, smiling back.
+
+They learned their lesson, and never went to the barn without grandma again. They still liked to explore, but they were more respectful and careful. They also kept the coin, as a reminder of their adventure. They called it their treasure, and their secret.
+Tom was a boy who liked to explore. One day, he saw a big maze in the park. He wanted to go inside and find the way out. He did not listen to his mom, who told him to stay with her. He was ignorant and ran away from her.
+
+He entered the maze and felt excited. He saw many paths and walls. He tried to remember where he came from, but he forgot. He got lost and scared. He wanted to go back to his mom, but he did not know how.
+
+He wandered in the maze for a long time. He stumbled on a rock and hurt his knee. He cried and called for his mom, but she did not hear him. He felt alone and sorry. He wished he had listened to his mom.
+
+Then, he heard a voice. It was his mom. She had followed his footsteps and found him. She hugged him and kissed his knee. She was not angry, but happy. She told him that she loved him and that he should always obey her. He learned his lesson and said sorry. He promised to never run away from her again.
+
+They left the maze and went home. Tom was glad to be with his mom. He realized that she knew what was best for him. He was not ignorant anymore, but wise. He thanked his mom for saving him and for teaching him. He loved his mom very much.
+Ben and Mia are twins. They like to play outside in the sun. One day, they find a big ball in the yard. It is red and shiny and bouncy.
+
+"Let's play with the ball!" Ben says. He picks up the ball and throws it to Mia.
+
+"OK!" Mia says. She catches the ball and throws it back to Ben.
+
+They play catch for a long time. They laugh and run and jump. The ball goes high and low and far and near.
+
+But then, the ball goes too far. It flies over the fence and lands in the street. Ben and Mia stop and look. They see a car coming fast.
+
+"Ben, no!" Mia urges. She grabs Ben's hand and pulls him back. "The car is big and loud and fast. The ball is not safe. We are safe here."
+
+Ben feels Mia's hand tight on his. He hears the car honk and zoom. He sees the ball roll and stop. He is scared and sad.
+
+"I want the ball," he says. "It is our ball. It is fun."
+
+"I know," Mia says. "But we can't get the ball now. The street is not for us. It is for cars. We have to wait."
+
+They wait and watch. They hope the car will go away. They hope the ball will stay. They hope they can play again.
+Anna likes to create things with her toys. She has many blocks, dolls, cars and animals. She can make houses, roads, farms and stories with them. She likes to pretend that her toys are alive and talk to them.
+
+One day, she decides to create a human with her blocks. She puts four blocks for the legs, two for the arms, one for the head and one for the body. She gives the human a face with a sticker and a hat with a sock. She thinks the human looks unusual, but she likes it.
+
+She shows the human to her brother Tom, who is older and knows more words. He laughs and says, "That is not a human, that is a silly thing. Humans have skin, hair, eyes, nose, mouth, ears and fingers. Your human has none of those. It is just blocks and a sock."
+
+Anna feels sad and angry. She says, "It is a human, because I created it. It is my human and I love it. You are mean and you do not understand. Go away and leave me alone."
+
+She hugs her human and plays with it. She tells it stories and sings to it. She thinks it is the best human in the world. She does not care what Tom says. She is happy with her creation.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play and joke with each other. One day, they find a big hat in the park. Lily puts the hat on her head and says, "Look at me, I am a queen!" Ben laughs and says, "No, you are a clown! Your hair is funny under the hat!"
+
+Lily feels sad. She does not like Ben's joke. She says, "That is not nice, Ben. You hurt my feelings. My hair is not funny, it is beautiful." Ben says, "I am sorry, Lily. I was only joking. I did not mean to hurt you. Your hair is beautiful, and you are a queen."
+
+Lily smiles and says, "Thank you, Ben. I forgive you. You are a good friend. But you should be careful with your jokes. Sometimes, jokes can make people feel bad. You should think before you joke."
+
+Ben nods and says, "You are right, Lily. You are very intelligent. I will think before I joke. I do not want to make you or anyone else feel bad. I want to make you happy."
+
+They hug and say, "We are friends." They share the hat and play together in the park. They have fun and joke with each other, but they are always kind and respectful. They learn that jokes are good, but only if they do not hurt anyone.
+Ben and Mia are playing in the park. They see a big gray bird on a tree. The bird has a shiny whistle around its neck.
+
+"Wow, look at the bird!" Ben says. "It has a whistle. I want to play with it."
+
+"No, Ben, you can't," Mia says. "The bird is not a toy. It is alive. It might bite you or fly away."
+
+But Ben does not listen. He runs to the tree and tries to reach the bird. He stretches his arms and jumps, but he is too short. The bird sees him and makes a loud noise.
+
+"Tweet! Tweet! Tweet!" The bird whistles. It sounds angry and scared.
+
+Ben gets scared too. He falls down and hurts his knee. He starts to cry.
+
+"Ben, are you okay?" Mia asks. She runs to him and helps him up. She hugs him and says sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mia," Ben says. "I was silly. I should have listened to you. The bird is not a toy. It is a friend."
+
+They look at the bird. The bird looks at them. It whistles again, but this time it sounds happy and friendly.
+
+"Tweet! Tweet! Tweet!" The bird says. It seems to say thank you and goodbye.
+
+Ben and Mia smile. They wave to the bird and say goodbye too. They go back to playing in the park. They are happy. They are friends.
+Ben is a little boy who likes to play in the park. He has a red ball that he throws and catches. One day, he sees a big dog in the park. The dog is black and white and has a long tail. Ben wants to play with the dog, but he does not know if the dog is friendly.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Ben says, and walks towards the dog with his ball. The dog sees Ben and barks. He does not like strangers. He shows his teeth and growls.
+
+"Ben, stop!" a voice says. It is Ben's mom. She is sitting on a bench and reading a book. She sees the dog and Ben and gets scared. She runs to Ben and picks him up. "That dog is not nice, Ben. He might bite you. You have to be careful."
+
+"But I want to play with him, mom," Ben says. He does not understand why the dog is angry. He likes animals.
+
+"Listen to me, Ben," his mom says. "Some dogs are nice and some dogs are not. You have to ask the owner before you touch a dog. Do you see that man over there? He is the dog's owner. He has a leash in his hand. He should warn people that his dog is not friendly."
+
+Ben looks and sees a man in a blue shirt and jeans. He is talking on his phone and does not pay attention to his dog. He does not see Ben and his mom.
+
+"Maybe he does not know, mom," Ben says. He feels sorry for the dog. Maybe the dog is lonely and bored.
+
+"Maybe, Ben, but that is not an excuse. He should take care of his dog and train him. He should not let him run free in the park. He should warn people that his dog is not friendly. That is the right thing to do. Do you understand, Ben?"
+
+Ben nods. He understands. He hugs his mom and says, "I love you, mom. Thank you for saving me."
+
+"I love you too, Ben. You are my little hero. Now, let's go and play with your ball. But stay away from that dog, okay?"
+
+"Okay, mom," Ben says, and smiles. He is happy to play with his mom and his ball. He does not want to play with the dog anymore. He hopes the dog will find a friend someday.
+Jen and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their dog, Spot. Spot is big and brown and likes to run and bark.
+
+One day, Jen and Ben find a big basket in the park. It has a red cloth on it. They lift the cloth and see many yummy things inside. There are sandwiches, cookies, apples, and juice.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Jen says. "Someone left us a picnic!"
+
+"Let's eat it!" Ben says. "I'm hungry!"
+
+They sit on the grass and start to eat. Spot lays next to them and wags his tail. He wants some food too.
+
+But then, they hear a voice. It is a lady. She is looking for her basket.
+
+"Hello, hello, where is my basket?" she says. "I left it here for a moment. I went to get some napkins. Have you seen it?"
+
+Jen and Ben feel worry. They look at each other. They look at the basket. They look at Spot.
+
+"Uh-oh," Jen says. "We ate her picnic!"
+
+"What do we do?" Ben says. "She will be mad!"
+
+They think fast. They have an idea.
+
+They grab the basket and run to the lady. They smile and say, "Hi, lady! We found your basket! It was on the grass. We were keeping it safe for you. Here you go!"
+
+The lady is surprised. She looks at the basket. She sees that it is almost empty.
+
+"Thank you, kids," she says. "But where is my food?"
+
+Jen and Ben point to Spot. Spot burps and licks his lips.
+
+"Spot ate it!" they say. "He was very hungry. He likes yummy things. We're sorry!"
+
+The lady laughs. She is not mad. She thinks Spot is cute.
+
+"That's okay," she says. "Spot can have my food. He looks like a good dog. But next time, please ask before you take someone's basket. It is not nice to take things that are not yours."
+
+Jen and Ben nod. They say sorry again. They hug Spot. They learn a lesson.
+
+They go back to play in the park. They have fun. They do not worry. They do not take things that are not theirs. They are good twins.
+Anna and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. Anna has a doll with long hair and a dress. Ben has a car with wheels and a horn. They are having fun making noises and moving their toys around.
+
+"Look, Anna, my car can go fast!" Ben says, pushing his car on the floor.
+
+"Look, Ben, my doll can dance!" Anna says, swinging her doll in the air.
+
+They smile at each other and keep playing. Then, they hear a knock on the door. They run to see who it is. It is their grandma, who has come to visit them.
+
+"Hello, my darlings!" Grandma says, hugging them. "What are you playing with?"
+
+Anna and Ben show her their toys. Grandma looks at them and smiles.
+
+"Those are very nice toys," she says. "But do you know what they are?"
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They know what their toys are.
+
+"This is a doll," Anna says, holding her doll.
+
+"This is a car," Ben says, holding his car.
+
+"Very good," Grandma says. "But do you know how they work?"
+
+Anna and Ben shake their heads. They don't know how their toys work.
+
+"Well, let me explain," Grandma says. "A doll is a toy that looks like a person. It has hair, eyes, a nose, a mouth, and a body. You can dress it up and make it do things, like dance or talk. A car is a toy that looks like a regular car. It has wheels, a horn, a door, and a seat. You can push it or pull it and make it go places, like the park or the store."
+
+Anna and Ben listen to Grandma. They are curious and want to learn more.
+
+"Wow, that's cool!" Anna says.
+
+"Yeah, that's awesome!" Ben says.
+
+They ask Grandma more questions about their toys. Grandma is happy to answer them. She likes to explain things to her grandchildren. She thinks they are very smart and sweet. They spend a nice time together, playing and talking.
+Lily liked to splash in the water. She had a big tub in her backyard. She filled it with water from the hose. She put in her toys and her rubber duck. She was cheerful and happy.
+
+She saw a shiny thing in the sky. It was a star. She wanted to touch it. She thought it was part of the universe. She liked the universe. She learned about it from her books.
+
+She climbed on a chair. She reached for the star. She leaned over the tub. She slipped and fell. She hit her head on the edge. She went under the water. She could not breathe. She could not splash. She could not see the star. She was not cheerful and happy. She was gone.
+Tim and Mia like to play in the park. They see a big crane near the pond. The crane is lifting rocks and dirt. Tim and Mia want to see what the crane is doing.
+
+They run to the pond and look at the crane. The crane has a big bucket. The bucket is empty. The crane lowers the bucket into the pond. The bucket fills with water. The crane lifts the bucket up. The bucket is full.
+
+Tim and Mia think the crane is fun. They want to play with the bucket. They run to the bucket and touch it. The bucket is wet. The bucket is heavy. The bucket tips over. The water spills out. The water soaks Tim and Mia. Tim and Mia are wet. They are cold. They are sad.
+

+
+Mom smiled. She said, "Okay, Mark, you can take one car with you. But only one. Which one do you want?"
+
+Mark looked at his cars and trucks. He had so many. It was difficult to choose. He liked them all. He said, "Mom, can I take two cars with me?"
+
+Mom said, "No, Mark, only one. You have to decide. Hurry up, or I will choose for you."
+
+Mark thought hard. He picked his favorite car. It was red and shiny and fast. He said, "Mom, I want this one. This is my best car."

+"Let's nap," Anna said. "I'm sleepy."
+
+"Me too," Ben agreed. "But where can we nap?"
+
+They looked around and saw the couch, the rug, and the chair. They also saw their grandmother, who was knitting in the corner. She was elderly and had white hair and glasses.

+
+Sara did not like lunch. She did not want to eat the green things and the brown things. She only wanted to eat the yellow things and the red things. She pushed her plate away and crossed her arms.

+"So what? He's just having fun. He can do what he wants. You are not the judge of him." she said. She looked at her phone again and ignored them.
+
+Tom and Lily's moms felt angry and shocked. They did not know what to say. They took Tom and Lily by the hand and walked away.
+
+Tom and Lily wept. They did not understand why the boy and his mom were so mean. They did not feel happy anymore. They felt hurt and sad. They wished they could slide again. But they did not want to see the boy and his mom again. They hoped they would find nicer friends to play with.

+But Jill did not listen. She rushed out of the door and ran to the park. She hoped to see her friends and have fun.
+
+But when she got to the park, she saw that it was empty. All her friends had gone home. The swings and slides and merry-go-rounds were locked. The sun was setting and it was getting dark and cold.

+"Anna, I'm sorry. I don't want to fight. I like spring too. It is beautiful. Can we share?" Ben says.
+
+"Ben, I'm sorry. I don't want to fight. I like winter too. It is fun. Can we share?" Anna says.
+
+They smile. They hug. They go back to the middle of the room.
+
+They play pretend again. They make winter and spring together. They make snowflakes and flowers. They make icicles and butterflies. They make magic sounds.
+
+They are happy. They are friends. They love each other.
+Tom and Anna wanted to make a soup for their mom, who was sick. They looked for things to put in the soup. They found a chicken, some carrots, some water, and some salt.
+
+"How much water do we need?" Anna asked.
+
+"I don't know. Let's measure it," Tom said. He took a big cup and filled it with water. He poured it into a pot. He did it again and again.
+
+"That's enough water," Anna said. "Now we need to cut the chicken and the carrots."
+
+They took a knife and tried to cut the chicken. But the chicken was too big and hard. They could not cut it.
+
+"This chicken is too big and hard. We need a smaller and softer one," Tom said.
+
+"Where can we find a smaller and softer chicken?" Anna asked.
+
+They looked around the kitchen. They saw a toy chicken on the shelf. It was small and soft. It had a red comb and yellow feet.
+
+"Look, there is a smaller and softer chicken!" Tom said. He took the toy chicken and put it in the pot.
+
+"Good idea!" Anna said. She took a peeler and peeled the carrots. She cut them into small pieces and put them in the pot too. She added some salt.
+
+"Now we need to cook the soup," Tom said. He turned on the stove and waited for the soup to boil.
+
+They smelled the soup. It smelled good. They tasted the soup. It tasted good.
+
+"We made a good soup!" Tom said.
+
+"Yes, we did!" Anna said.
+
+They poured the soup into a bowl and brought it to their mom. Their mom was lying in bed. She saw the soup and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Tom and Anna. You made a soup for me. That's very kind of you," she said.
+
+She took a spoon and tried the soup. She felt something soft and fuzzy in her mouth. She spat it out. It was the toy chicken.
+
+"What is this?" she asked.
+
+"It's a chicken. A smaller and softer one," Tom said.
+
+"We could not cut the big and hard one," Anna said.
+
+Their mom looked at them. She saw their modest faces. They wanted to make her happy. She hugged them and kissed them.
+
+"I love you, Tom and Anna. You are very sweet and clever. But next time, please use a real chicken for the soup," she said.
+Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the garden. They had a big tree with a ladder that they used to climb up and down. One day, Tom wanted to go up the ladder, but Sam was already there.
+
+"Move, Sam, I want to go up!" Tom said.
+
+"No, I was here first. You can wait your turn," Sam said.
+
+Tom did not like to wait. He started to complain and cry. He pulled Sam's leg and tried to make him fall. Sam got angry and kicked Tom's hand. Tom let go of the ladder and fell to the ground.
+
+Tom hurt his head and his arm. He screamed and cried louder. Sam looked down and saw Tom's blood. He felt scared and sorry. He tried to go down the ladder to help Tom, but he was not alert. He slipped and fell too.
+
+Sam hurt his back and his leg. He groaned and cried softer. Tom and Sam lay on the ground, both in pain. They wished they had not fought. They wished they had shared the ladder. They wished their mom was there. But their mom was not there. She had gone to the store and left them alone. She did not know what had happened. She did not hear their cries. She did not come back soon.
+A young lion was playing with his friends in the grass. He liked to chase and pounce on them. He was fast and strong. He wanted to be a great hunter like his father.
+
+One day, he saw a big animal with horns and a long nose. It was a rhino. The lion was curious. He wanted to see it closer. He left his friends and ran towards the rhino.
+
+The rhino saw the lion and was angry. He did not like strangers in his land. He lifted his head and showed his horn. It was like a spear. He snorted and charged at the lion.
+
+The lion was scared. He did not know what to do. He tried to run away, but the rhino was faster. He felt the horn hit his side. He cried out in pain.
+
+His father heard his cry and came to help. He saw the rhino and the lion. He roared and rushed at the rhino. He bit his tail and made him turn. He told the lion to run to safety.
+
+The lion did as his father said. He ran to his friends and his mother. They licked his wound and comforted him. He thanked his father for saving him. He learned a lesson. He would not go near the rhino again. He would listen to his father and be careful. He still wanted to be a great hunter, but he knew he had to grow up first.
+Lily and Tom were twins. They liked to play with matches. They found matches in the kitchen. They took some matches and went to the garden.
+
+"Let's make a fire!" Tom said. He scratched a match on a rock. It made a bright flame. He threw it on some dry leaves.
+
+"No, Tom, that is bad!" Lily said. She was scared. She knew matches were dangerous. She tried to stop Tom. But Tom did not listen. He scratched another match.
+
+The fire grew bigger and bigger. It made a lot of smoke. It burned the leaves and the grass. It reached the fence. Lily and Tom ran away. They cried for help.
+
+Mama and Papa heard them. They came to the garden. They saw the fire. They were angry and worried. They called the firemen. The firemen came with a big truck. They sprayed water on the fire. They put out the fire.
+
+Mama and Papa hugged Lily and Tom. They were glad they were safe. But they were also very cross. They scolded Lily and Tom. They told them matches were not toys. They told them they could have hurt themselves and others. They told them they should be obedient and never play with matches again.
+
+Lily and Tom felt sorry. They said they were sorry. They promised they would never play with matches again. They learned their lesson. They knew matches were not for fun. They knew they should be obedient and listen to Mama and Papa.
+Sara and Ben like to play with water. They have a big tub in the garden. They fill it with water from the hose. They splash and laugh. They are very wet.
+
+"Can we make the water more?" Sara asks. She wants to increase the water in the tub.
+
+"OK, let me turn the hose more," Ben says. He turns the knob. The water comes out faster. The tub gets fuller and fuller.
+
+"Wow, look at the water!" Sara says. She sees the water rise. She is happy.
+
+But then, the water is too much. It spills over the tub. It makes a big puddle on the grass. It makes the garden wet.
+
+"Oh no, look at the mess!" Ben says. He sees the water everywhere. He is worried.
+
+"What will Mom say?" Sara asks. She has a question in her mind. She is scared.
+
+They hear Mom coming. They turn off the hose. They try to hide the tub and the puddle. They hope Mom will not see.
+
+But Mom sees. She sees the wet tub, the wet grass, the wet children. She is not happy.
+
+"What have you done?" Mom asks. She has a question in her voice. She is angry.
+
+Sara and Ben do not know what to say. They are sorry. They are quiet.
+Tom and Anna were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a man in a green suit and a hat. He had a big bag and a medal on his chest. He was a soldier.
+
+"Hello, soldier!" Tom said. "What is in your bag?"
+
+The soldier smiled and opened his bag. He showed them some toys and books. He said he brought them from a faraway place where he helped people who were in trouble.
+
+"Wow, can we have some?" Anna asked.
+
+The soldier nodded and gave them each a toy and a book. He said they were gifts for being good children.
+
+"Thank you, soldier!" Tom and Anna said. They were very happy and grateful.
+
+They started to play with their new toys and read their new books. But then, a big boy came and snatched Anna's toy. He said it was his and ran away.
+
+"Hey, give it back!" Anna cried. She was very sad and angry.
+
+Tom wanted to help his sister, but he was afraid of the big boy. He did not know what to do.
+
+The soldier saw what happened and ran after the big boy. He caught him and took the toy back. He scolded him and told him to say sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Anna," the big boy said. He was very scared and ashamed.
+
+The soldier gave the toy back to Anna and hugged her. He said he was proud of her for being brave and kind.
+
+"Thank you, soldier!" Anna said. She hugged him back.
+
+Tom also thanked the soldier and hugged him. He said he was sorry for being scared and not helping his sister.
+
+The soldier said it was okay and that he understood. He said he was once scared too, but he learned to be brave and help others. He said that was the best way to be a good soldier and a good person.
+
+Tom and Anna learned a lesson from the soldier. They decided to be brave and help others too. They said goodbye to the soldier and thanked him again. They played with their toys and books and shared them with their friends. They were very happy and grateful.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play with toys and watch television. One day, they went to Tom's house after school. Tom had a big television in his living room. He turned it on and they saw a funny show.
+
+"Look, Lily, they are making jokes!" Tom said.
+
+Lily laughed. "Yes, they are very funny. I like this show."
+
+They watched the show for a long time. They did not hear Tom's mom come home. She was angry when she saw them.
+
+"Tom, what are you doing? You know you have to do your homework before you watch television!" she said.
+
+Tom was scared. He turned off the television and said sorry.
+
+"Lily, you have to go home now. It is late. We can play tomorrow," he said.
+
+Lily was sad. She liked to watch television with Tom. She said goodbye and went home.
+
+On her way home, she saw a poor man. He was sitting on the street. He had no home, no food, no clothes. He looked very sad.
+
+Lily felt sorry for him. She had an idea. She ran back to Tom's house. She knocked on the door.
+
+"Tom, can I borrow your television?" she asked.
+
+Tom was surprised. He did not understand.
+
+"Why do you want my television?" he asked.
+
+Lily smiled. "I want to give it to the poor man. He has nothing. Maybe he will be happy if he can watch television."
+
+Tom thought for a moment. He liked his television, but he also liked Lily. He wanted to help the poor man.
+
+"Okay, you can borrow my television. But you have to return it tomorrow. Promise?" he said.
+
+Lily nodded. "I promise. Thank you, Tom. You are a good friend."
+
+She took the television and ran to the poor man. She gave it to him and said, "Here, this is for you. You can watch television. It is very fun."
+
+The poor man was shocked. He did not know what to say. He looked at the television and then at Lily.
+
+"Thank you, little girl. You are very kind. But how will I turn it on? I have no electricity," he said.
+
+Lily did not think of that. She felt silly. She did not know how to make the television work.
+
+She said sorry and took the television back. She returned it to Tom and told him what happened.
+
+Tom hugged her and said, "It's okay, Lily. You tried to do a good thing. The poor man will remember your kindness. Maybe we can find another way to help him."
+
+Lily smiled. She was happy to have Tom as her friend. They decided to watch television together for a little while. They hoped the poor man would be okay.
+Anna and Ben liked to go to the library with their mom. They liked to look at books with pictures and stories. But sometimes they also liked to tease each other and make noise.
+
+One day, they saw a big book on a shelf. It had a picture of a castle and a dragon on the cover. It looked mysterious and exciting. Anna wanted to see what was inside, but Ben grabbed the book first.
+
+"Give it to me, Ben!" Anna said. "I saw it first!"
+
+"No, it's mine!" Ben said. "You can't have it!"
+
+They pulled and pushed the book, trying to take it from each other. They did not see the librarian coming. She was angry and stern. She did not like children who teased and made noise.
+
+"Stop that right now!" she said. "You are disturbing the other people in the library. Give me that book and go to the corner. You are in trouble!"
+
+Anna and Ben felt scared and sorry. They let go of the book and followed the librarian. She took them to a dark and quiet corner. She told them to sit there and think about what they did. She said they could not look at any books or talk to each other until their mom came.
+
+Anna and Ben sat in the corner. They felt bored and sad. They wished they had not teased each other and made noise. They wished they had shared the book and read it together. They wondered what was inside the mysterious book. They missed their mom. They learned a hard lesson.
+Ben and Lily were twins. They liked to play with their toys and books. But they did not like to share. They always wanted the same thing.
+
+One day, their mom came home with a big box. She said it was a present for them. Ben and Lily were very happy. They wanted to open the box right away. But mom said no. She said they had to wait until after dinner. She said it was a surprise.
+
+Ben and Lily were very curious. They wondered what was in the box. They tried to peek and shake it. But mom said no. She said they had to be patient and polite. She said it was a rule.
+
+Ben and Lily were very bored. They did not want to wait. They wanted to see the present. They had a plan. They waited until mom was busy in the kitchen. Then they sneaked to the living room. They found the box. They opened it.
+
+But they did not find a toy or a book. They found a big cake. It was chocolate and vanilla. It had candles and sprinkles. It had their names on it. It was a birthday cake. Ben and Lily had forgotten. It was their birthday.
+
+But they did not have time to enjoy it. Mom came in and saw them. She was very angry. She said they had been naughty and rude. She said they had ruined the surprise. She said they had to go to their room. She said they could not have any cake.
+
+Ben and Lily were very sad. They had made a big mistake. They wished they had listened to mom. They wished they had waited. They learned a lesson. It was difficult to be patient. But it was more difficult to lose a present.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden when they saw a huge truck stop in front of their house. The truck had many boxes on it. Lily and Ben ran to the gate and watched as a man got out of the truck and rang the doorbell.
+
+"Who is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know," Ben said. "Maybe he has a present for us."
+
+Their mom opened the door and talked to the man. He gave her a paper and she signed it. Then he opened the back of the truck and took out some boxes. He carried them to the door and put them inside.
+
+"What is in the boxes?" Ben asked.
+
+"Let's go and see," Lily said.
+
+They followed their mom and the man into the house. They saw that the boxes had pictures of grapes and bottles on them. Their mom opened one of the boxes and took out a bottle. It was dark and shiny.
+
+"This is wine," their mom said. "It is a drink for grown-ups. Your dad and I ordered it from a special place. It is very good and expensive."
+
+"Why is it good and expensive?" Lily asked.
+
+Their mom smiled and tried to explain. "Wine is made from grapes that grow in the sun. The grapes are squeezed and the juice is put in bottles. The bottles are stored for a long time in a cool and dark place. The juice changes and becomes wine. Different wines have different tastes and colors. Some wines are rare and hard to find. That is why they are good and expensive."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They did not understand everything, but they liked the pictures of grapes and bottles. They thought wine looked pretty.
+
+"Can we have some wine?" Ben asked.
+
+Their mom laughed and shook her head. "No, wine is not for children. It is too strong and bitter. You can have some juice or water instead."
+
+Lily and Ben agreed. They did not want to drink something strong and bitter. They wanted something sweet and refreshing. They went to the kitchen and got some juice and water. They drank and played while their mom and the man put the boxes away. They were happy and curious. They wondered what other things the huge truck had.
+Lily was a little bird who lived in a cage. She liked to sing and play with her toys, but she was not happy. She wanted to see the sky and the trees and the other birds. She wanted to fly and explore the world.
+
+One day, a boy came to visit Lily's owner. He saw the cage and said, "That is a sad bird. She needs to be free." He opened the cage and took Lily out. He held her gently and said, "Don't be afraid, little bird. I will show you something amazing."
+
+He took Lily to the window and opened it. Lily saw a huge blue sky with white clouds. She saw green trees with colorful flowers. She saw many birds flying and singing. She felt a warm breeze on her feathers. She was amazed and scared at the same time.
+
+"Go on, little bird. Fly and have fun. You can come back anytime you want. I will leave the window open for you." The boy said.
+
+Lily looked at the boy and said, "Thank you, kind boy. You are very nice. But I don't know how to fly. I only know how to sing and play in my cage."
+
+The boy smiled and said, "Don't worry, little bird. You can learn how to fly. It is easy and fun. Just flap your wings and follow your heart. The other birds will help you. They are your friends."
+
+Lily felt brave and curious. She flapped her wings and flew out of the window. She felt free and happy. She learned how to fly and made many friends. She saw many things and had many adventures. She sang and played in the sky and the trees. She always remembered the boy and his kindness. She always came back to visit him and tell him her stories. She was a happy bird.
+One day, a hippo and a mouse were friends. They liked to walk by the river and look at the fish. The hippo was big and strong, and the mouse was small and fast. They helped each other when they were in trouble.
+
+One day, they saw a big tree with red fruits. The mouse said, "Look, hippo, those fruits look yummy. Let's try some." The hippo said, "OK, mouse, but be careful. They might be bitter." The mouse said, "Don't worry, hippo, I have a good nose. I can smell if they are sweet or bitter."
+
+The mouse climbed the tree and picked a fruit. He bit into it and made a face. It was very bitter. He spat it out and said, "Yuck, hippo, this fruit is bitter. Don't eat it." The hippo said, "Thank you, mouse, for warning me. You are a good friend." The mouse said, "You are welcome, hippo. You are a good friend too."
+
+They walked away from the tree and found a patch of grass. They ate the grass and drank some water. They were happy and full. They said, "We don't need bitter fruits. We have each other." They hugged and smiled. They were the best friends in the world.
+Anna liked to play on the swing in the park. She liked to go high and feel the wind in her hair. But today, there was a problem. A big boy was on the swing and he did not want to share. He said, "This is my swing. Go away!"
+
+Anna felt sad and angry. She wanted to swing too. She waited and waited, but the big boy did not get off. He just swung faster and faster. He said, "You are too small to swing. You will fall off and cry."
+
+Anna did not know what to do. She looked around and saw a man sitting on a bench. He was reading a book. He looked kind and helpful. Anna walked up to him and said, "Excuse me, sir. Can you help me? That boy won't let me swing. He says it is his swing. But it is not. It is for everyone. Can you please tell him to share?"
+
+The man looked up from his book and smiled. He said, "Of course, I can help you. That is not nice of him to hog the swing. Let's go and talk to him." He got up and took Anna's hand. They walked to the swing and the man said, "Hello, young man. I see you are enjoying the swing. But do you know that there are other children who want to swing too? How about you let this little girl have a turn? She has been waiting very patiently. It is good to share and be fair. Don't you think?"
+
+The big boy looked at the man and Anna. He felt a little ashamed. He knew he was being selfish and rude. He said, "Okay, fine. I guess I can share. But only for a little while. Then I want the swing back." He got off the swing and gave it to Anna. Anna said, "Thank you, sir. You are very helpful. And thank you, boy. You are very nice." She got on the swing and started to swing. She felt happy and grateful. She said, "Whee! This is fun!"
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play outside in the snow. They make a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They give him a carrot nose and two buttons for eyes.
+
+"Let's go inside and have some hot cocoa," Mia says. "It is very cold and icy today."
+
+"Okay," Tom says. "But first, we need to find the key to the door. Mommy gave it to me before we left."
+
+Tom looks in his pockets, but he cannot find the key. He feels sad and scared. He does not want to be locked out in the cold.
+
+"Where is the key, Tom?" Mia asks. "Did you drop it in the snow?"
+
+"I don't know," Tom says. "Maybe it is under the snowman. We can dig him out and see."
+
+Tom and Mia use their hands and feet to move the snow away from the snowman. They hope to find the key. They work hard and fast, but they do not see the key.
+
+"Maybe it is in his hat," Mia says. "Or his scarf. Let's check."
+
+They pull off the hat and the scarf from the snowman. They shake them and look inside. But they do not find the key.
+
+"Maybe it is in his nose," Tom says. "Or his eyes. Let's check."
+
+They take off the carrot and the buttons from the snowman. They look at them and turn them over. But they do not find the key.
+
+"Where is the key, Tom?" Mia asks. "We cannot get inside without it. We will freeze out here."
+
+"I don't know, Mia," Tom says. "I am sorry. I lost the key. I am a bad friend."
+
+Tom starts to cry. Mia hugs him and says, "You are not a bad friend, Tom. You are a good friend. We will find the key. Don't cry."
+
+They look around the yard, but they do not see the key. They feel cold and tired. They do not know what to do.
+
+Then they hear a voice. It is Mommy. She is coming back from the store. She sees Tom and Mia in the snow. She sees the snowman without a hat, a scarf, a nose, or eyes.
+
+"What are you doing, kids?" Mommy asks. "Why did you ruin the snowman?"
+
+"We are looking for the key, Mommy," Tom says. "We lost the key. We cannot get inside. We are sorry."
+
+Mommy smiles and says, "Don't worry, kids. I have the key. I found it on the sidewalk. You must have dropped it when you left. Here, take it and go inside. I will make you some hot cocoa."
+
+Tom and Mia are happy. They take the key and open the door. They go inside and warm up. They thank Mommy for finding the key. They say sorry for ruining the snowman.
+
+Mommy says, "It's okay, kids. You can make another snowman tomorrow. You did your best to find the key. You are good friends. I am proud of you. You managed to stay calm and help each other. Now, enjoy your hot cocoa."
+One day, a boy named Ben and his dad went to the woods. They wanted to chop some wood for the fire. Ben's dad had a big axe. Ben wanted to help, but his dad said he was too small.
+
+"Can I fly the kite instead?" Ben asked. His dad nodded and gave him an ordinary kite. It was red and yellow and had a long tail. Ben ran to a clearing and threw the kite in the air. The wind made it fly high and fast.
+
+Ben was happy. He watched the kite fly and fly. He did not see the big bird that was flying too. The bird saw the kite and thought it was a tasty snack. It swooped down and grabbed the kite with its claws.
+
+"Hey, that's my kite!" Ben shouted. He tried to pull the string, but it was too late. The bird flew away with the kite. Ben was sad. He ran to his dad and told him what happened.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," his dad said. "That was a mean bird. But don't worry, I have a surprise for you." He reached into his bag and pulled out another kite. It was not ordinary. It was blue and green and had a dragon's head. It looked fierce and cool.
+
+"Wow, thanks, dad!" Ben said. He hugged his dad and took the new kite. He ran back to the clearing and threw the kite in the air. The wind made it fly high and fast. The bird saw the kite and was scared. It flew away and did not come back.
+
+Ben was happy. He watched the kite fly and fly. He smiled and said, "This is the best kite ever!"
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big round thing on a tree. It is green and shiny.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asks.
+
+"I don't know. Let's get it!" Tom says.
+
+They climb the tree and reach the round thing. It is hard and heavy. They try to pull it, but it does not come off.
+
+"Maybe we need to shake it," Lily says.
+
+They shake the branch with the round thing. It wobbles and falls to the ground. They climb down and pick it up.
+
+"It smells good," Tom says.
+
+"Let's open it and see what's inside," Lily says.
+
+They use a stick to crack the round thing. Inside, there is a soft and sweet part. They taste it and smile.
+
+"Mmm, this is delicious!" Lily says.
+
+"It is a melon!" Tom says.
+
+They share the melon and enjoy it. They are happy. They have found a new fruit to eat.
+Tom and Lily wanted to play outside, but it was very cold. They saw ice on the grass and on the trees. They put on their coats and boots and went out.
+
+"Look, ice!" Tom said. He touched the ice with his finger. It was hard and slippery. He tried to break it, but he could not.
+
+"Can we make a snowman?" Lily asked. She looked around, but there was no snow. Only ice.
+
+"Maybe we can make an ice man," Tom said. He looked for a big piece of ice. He found one and dragged it to the middle of the yard. He tried to lift it, but it was too heavy.
+
+"Help me, Lily," he said. Lily came and helped him. Together, they managed to lift the ice and put it on the ground. They found another piece of ice and put it on top of the first one. They found a small piece of ice and put it on the very top. They had made an ice man.
+
+They looked for things to make the ice man's face and clothes. They found two sticks and put them in the ice man's sides. They found two stones and put them in the ice man's head. They found a carrot and put it in the ice man's nose. They found a hat and a scarf and put them on the ice man.
+
+"Hello, ice man," Tom said. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The ice man did not say anything. He did not move. He did not smile.
+
+Tom and Lily felt sad. They wanted the ice man to be their friend, but he was not.
+
+They hugged the ice man and said goodbye. They went back inside to get warm. They hoped the ice man would not melt.
+Sam and Mia are playing in the garden. They have a big pool of water and some toys. They splash and laugh and have fun.
+
+But then, Sam feels something on his leg. He looks down and sees a bee. The bee is angry and stings Sam. Sam cries out loud and runs to his mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, help me! A bee stung me on my leg. It hurts so much!" Sam says.
+
+Mom hugs Sam and takes him inside. She puts some ice on his leg and gives him a kiss.
+
+"Don't worry, Sam. The ice will make it feel better. The bee is gone now. You are very brave," Mom says.
+
+Mia follows them inside. She feels sorry for Sam. She wants to cheer him up.
+
+"Sam, can I show you something?" Mia says.
+
+"Okay, what is it?" Sam says.
+
+Mia takes Sam to her room. She shows him her painting. She painted a picture of Sam and Mia playing in the water. She used many colors and shapes.
+

+
+Sam smiles. He likes the painting. He sees the water and the toys and their happy faces.
+
+"Yes, Mia. I like it. It is very pretty. You are very successful. Thank you for making me happy," Sam says.
+
+Mia hugs Sam. She is happy too. She gives him the painting.
+
+"Here, Sam. You can have it. It is for you. Maybe we can play in the water again tomorrow. But we will be careful of the bees," Mia says.
+
+Sam nods. He agrees. He puts the painting on his bed. He looks at it and feels better.
+
+Mom comes in and sees them. She is proud of them. She dries their hair and clothes with a towel. She tells them it is time for a snack.
+
+"Come on, kids. Let's have some cookies and milk. You did a great job today. You are both very good friends," Mom says.
+Sara and Tom were playing in the attic. They liked to find old things and make up stories about them. Sara found a big hat and put it on her head. Tom found a long coat and wrapped it around him.
+
+"Look, I am a ghost!" Tom said, making a scary sound. He ran towards Sara and tried to scare her.
+
+Sara laughed and said, "You are not a ghost, you are Tom. Ghosts are white and see-through. You are brown and solid."
+
+Tom said, "No, I am a ghost. Watch this!" He ran behind a box and said, "Now I vanish!"
+
+Sara waited for him to come out, but he did not. She said, "Tom, where are you? Come out, please."
+
+She walked towards the box and looked behind it. There was no Tom. She looked around the attic, but she could not see him. She started to feel scared. She said, "Tom, this is not funny. Stop hiding and come out."
+
+She heard a giggle from the other side of the attic. She turned and saw Tom. He had found a white sheet and covered himself with it. He said, "Boo! I am a ghost!"
+
+Sara was relieved and angry. She said, "Tom, you are a bad ghost. You made me scared. You did not vanish, you just moved."
+
+Tom said, "Sorry, Sara. I was just playing. I wanted to be a ghost."
+
+Sara said, "Well, you are not a good ghost. You are a dirty ghost. Look at your coat and sheet. They are full of dust and cobwebs. You need to be clean."
+
+Tom said, "How can I be clean?"
+
+Sara said, "You need to take off the coat and sheet and put them back where you found them. Then you need to wash your hands and face and brush your hair. Then you can be a clean Tom."
+
+Tom said, "OK, Sara. I will do that. But can we play more later?"
+
+Sara said, "Yes, Tom. We can play more later. But only if you are a clean Tom and not a dirty ghost."
+
+Tom said, "Deal, Sara. Deal."
+Sam and Tom are friends. They like to play in the farm. They see many animals in the farm. They see cows, sheep, pigs and chickens. They also see a big bull. The bull is black and has horns.
+
+"Look, Tom, a bull!" Sam says. "He is very big and strong. I want to sit on him."
+
+"No, Sam, you can't sit on the bull. He is not a horse. He can be angry and hurt you." Tom says.
+
+"But I want to try. He looks nice and soft. Maybe he will like me." Sam says. He runs to the bull and tries to climb on his back.
+
+The bull is confused. He does not know who Sam is. He does not like Sam on his back. He shakes his head and snorts. He tries to get Sam off his back.
+
+"Sam, get down, get down!" Tom shouts. He is scared for Sam. He runs to help him.
+
+Sam is scared too. He feels the bull moving and making noise. He wants to get down, but he can't. He holds on to the bull's fur.
+
+"Help, Tom, help!" Sam cries.
+
+Tom reaches the bull and grabs Sam's hand. He pulls Sam off the bull's back. They fall to the ground. They are safe.
+
+The bull is still confused. He looks at Sam and Tom. He does not know what they wanted. He walks away to join the other cows.
+
+Sam and Tom are happy. They hug each other. They are glad they are not hurt.
+
+"Sam, don't ever sit on a bull again. He is not a toy. He is a big animal. He can be dangerous." Tom says.
+
+"OK, Tom, I won't. I am sorry. I was silly. Thank you for saving me." Sam says.
+
+They go back to their parents. They tell them what happened. Their parents are relieved and proud. They hug them and kiss them. They tell them to be careful and respectful of the animals. They tell them they love them.

+
+"We are knights!" Max said. He raised his sword and pointed it at the dragon. "We are here to protect the kingdom!"

+Lily and Tom were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat, a scarf and a carrot nose. They also found a shiny jewel in the grass and put it on the snowman's chest.
+
+"Look, our snowman is so attractive!" Lily said. "He has a beautiful jewel!"
+
+"Yes, he does!" Tom agreed. "But we have to be careful. Someone might want to take it."
+
+They went inside to have some hot chocolate. They left the snowman in the yard.
+
+Soon, a mean boy named Max came by. He saw the snowman and the jewel. He wanted the jewel for himself.
+
+"Wow, what a nice jewel!" Max said. "I'm going to take it!"

+He ran to the snowman and pulled the jewel off his chest. The snowman wobbled and fell down.

+Lily and Tom came back outside. They saw the snowman on the ground. They saw the jewel was gone.
+
+"Where is the jewel?" Lily cried. "Who took it?"

+Tommy liked to print. He had a big box of paper and many colors to make marks with. He printed his name, his dog, his mom and dad, and his favorite toy: a bear. He hugged his bear every night and told him stories.
+
+One day, Tommy wanted to print a surprise for his bear. He found a long piece of paper and some brown and black colors. He printed a big bear, like his toy, but much bigger. He printed eyes, nose, ears, and paws. He was very proud of his print.
+
+He ran to his room with his print and his bear. He wanted to show his bear his new friend. He put the print on the wall and said, "Look, bear, this is you! You are big and strong and brave!"
+
+But his bear did not look happy. He looked scared. He hid behind Tommy and shook. Tommy did not understand. He said, "Don't be scared, bear, this is just a print. It is not real. It is like a picture. See, I made it with my colors."
+
+But his bear did not listen. He kept hiding and shaking. Tommy felt sad. He wanted his bear to like his print. He wanted his bear to be happy. He took his print off the wall and folded it. He said, "I'm sorry, bear, I did not mean to scare you. I love you. You are my best friend."
+
+He put his print in his box and hugged his bear. His bear hugged him back and stopped shaking. He said, "I love you too, Tommy. You are my best friend. But please, no more big bears. They are too scary."
+
+Tommy smiled and said, "OK, bear, no more big bears. How about a small bear? Or a flower? Or a star?"
+
+His bear nodded and said, "Yes, Tommy, those are nice. Let's print those together."
+
+They went to Tommy's box and picked some colors. They printed many things on the paper. They had fun and laughed. They forgot about the big bear. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big pile of junk near the fence. It had old cans, boxes, papers and other things. Lily wanted to go and look at the junk. She thought it might have something fun or shiny inside.
+
+"Come on, Ben, let's go and see the junk!" she urged. She ran towards the pile.
+
+Ben did not want to go. He thought the junk was dirty and dangerous. He saw some sharp edges and broken glass. He also saw a sign that said "Keep Out".
+
+"No, Lily, don't go there!" he shouted. "The junk is bad. It can hurt you. And the sign says we can't go there. We have to listen to the sign."
+
+But Lily did not listen to Ben. She was curious and foolish. She climbed on the junk and started to dig. She hoped to find a treasure or a toy.
+
+Suddenly, she felt a pain in her hand. She had cut herself on a can. She cried out loud. Blood came out of her hand. She was scared and sorry.
+
+Ben heard her cry and ran to help her. He took her hand and wrapped it with his scarf. He hugged her and said, "It's okay, Lily, I'm here. But you were foolish to go to the junk. You have to be careful and follow the rules. The junk is not a good place to play."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I'm sorry, Ben. You were right. The junk is bad. I won't go there again. Thank you for helping me."
+
+They walked back to the park and found their mom. She took them to the doctor and gave them a hug. She said, "I'm glad you're okay, Lily and Ben. But you have to be more careful next time. The junk is not a good place to play. It can hurt you and make you sick. You have to stay away from it."
+
+Lily and Ben agreed and said, "We will, mom. We learned our lesson. We won't be foolish again."
+Ben likes to walk with his mom and dad every day. They go to the park and see the trees, the birds, and the flowers. Ben likes to rub the soft petals of the flowers and smell their sweet scent. He also likes to play with the other kids on the swings and the slide.
+
+One day, Ben sees a big, shiny red ball on the grass. He runs to get it, but he does not see the hole in the ground. He trips and falls, and the ball rolls away. Ben feels a pain in his knee and starts to cry. His mom and dad hear him and come to help him. They lift him up and hug him. They rub his knee and put a band-aid on it.
+
+Ben feels better, but he is sad about the ball. He looks around, but he does not see it. He thinks someone took it. He asks his mom and dad, "Where is my ball?" They do not know. They tell him, "Maybe someone else found it and played with it. Maybe they will bring it back later. Or maybe we can find another ball for you."
+
+Ben is not happy. He wants his ball. He says, "No, I want my ball. It was mine. It was big and shiny and red. I want it back." He pouts and crosses his arms.
+
+His mom and dad try to cheer him up. They say, "Let's go to the ice cream truck and get some ice cream. You like ice cream, right? Maybe that will make you feel better." Ben nods. He likes ice cream. He thinks maybe ice cream will make him forget about the ball.
+
+They walk to the ice cream truck and see a long line of people waiting. Ben sees some of his friends from the park. They wave at him and smile. He waves back and smiles too. He feels a little better. He sees the ice cream truck has many flavors and colors. He wonders what he will choose.
+
+Then he sees something that makes his eyes widen and his mouth open. He sees his ball. His big, shiny, red ball. It is on top of the ice cream truck, next to a sign that says, "Free ball with every ice cream!" Ben is so happy. He says, "Look, look, there is my ball! It is on the truck! Can I have it, please, please, please?" His mom and dad look and see the ball too. They are surprised and happy. They say, "Yes, of course, you can have it. It is your ball. You found it again. How lucky!"
+
+They buy some ice cream and get the ball for Ben. Ben is so happy. He hugs his ball and his ice cream. He says, "Thank you, thank you, thank you. This is the best day ever. I love my ball and my ice cream and my mom and dad." He licks his ice cream and rubs his ball. He is glad he walked to the park today. He thinks the ice cream truck man is very nice and organized. He has a good idea for his ball. He says, "Can I share my ball with my friends? Can we play with it together?" His mom and dad say, "Yes, of course, you can. That is very kind and fun of you. Let's go and play with your friends." They walk back to the park and play with the ball and the ice cream. Ben is very happy. He thinks this is the best walk ever.
+Tom and Lily like to play with balloons. They have many balloons of different colors. They blow air into the balloons and tie them with strings. Then they attach the balloons to their chairs, their toys, and their hats. They pretend they can fly with the balloons.
+
+One day, they find a big blue balloon in the closet. It is very shiny and round. They want to play with it, but they cannot blow air into it. It has a metal thing on the bottom. Tom says it is a gas balloon. He says gas is like air, but lighter. He says the gas balloon can fly higher than the other balloons.
+
+Tom and Lily are curious. They want to see how high the gas balloon can fly. They untie the metal thing and attach the balloon to a long string. They go outside and let go of the string. The gas balloon goes up, up, up in the sky. It is so high that it looks like a small dot. Tom and Lily are happy. They clap and cheer.
+
+But then, a strong wind comes. It blows the gas balloon away. Tom and Lily are sad. They cannot see the gas balloon anymore. They run after it, but it is too fast. They lose the string. They cry and hug each other.
+
+Mom and Dad see them crying. They ask them what is wrong. Tom and Lily tell them about the gas balloon. Mom and Dad hug them and say they are sorry. They say they will buy them a new balloon. They say they love them. Tom and Lily feel better. They say they love Mom and Dad too. They go inside and play with their other balloons. They are still curious, but they are also careful. They do not attach the balloons to anything that can fly away.
+Ben and Lily are playing with blocks. They want to build a big tower. They use a ruler to measure the blocks. They want to make sure the blocks are the same size.
+
+"Look, this block is ten. And this block is ten too. They are the same," Ben says.
+
+"Good, Ben. Let's put them on top of each other. Then our tower will be taller," Lily says.
+
+They stack the blocks carefully. They make a tower with ten blocks. They are very proud of their tower.
+
+"Wow, our tower is powerful. It is the tallest tower ever," Lily says.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is the tap in the kitchen. It is leaking water. The water is spraying everywhere. It is making a big mess.
+
+"Oh no, the tap is broken. It is too powerful. It is making water go everywhere," Ben says.
+
+They run to the kitchen. They see the water. They see their mom. She is trying to fix the tap. She is using a wrench.
+
+"Mom, what happened? Can you stop the water?" Lily asks.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids. The tap is old and rusty. It needs to be replaced. I'm trying to turn it off, but it is very hard," Mom says.
+
+She twists the wrench. She turns the tap. The water slows down. Then it stops.
+
+"Phew, I did it. The water is off. But we need to call a plumber to get a new tap," Mom says.
+
+"Can we help you, Mom?" Ben asks.
+
+"Yes, you can. You can help me clean up the water. And you can help me choose a new tap. A tap that is not too powerful," Mom says.
+
+They nod. They get some towels. They dry the floor. They pick up the blocks. They put them away.
+
+They help their mom. They are good kids. They are happy.
+Anna and Ben like to play with blocks. They build towers and bridges and castles. Sometimes they measure how tall their towers are. They use a ruler or a book or a stick. They want to see who can make the tallest tower.
+
+One day, they find a big box of blocks in the attic. They are very happy. They take the blocks to the living room and start to build. Anna makes a tower with red and blue blocks. Ben makes a bridge with green and yellow blocks. They measure their blocks with a ruler. Anna's tower is 20 centimeters tall. Ben's bridge is 15 centimeters long.
+
+They keep building and measuring. They use more and more blocks. They make their tower and bridge bigger and bigger. They measure their blocks with a book. Anna's tower is 40 centimeters tall. Ben's bridge is 35 centimeters long.
+
+They want to make their tower and bridge even bigger. They look for more blocks. They see a pass in the wall. It is a small door that leads to another room. They open the pass and go inside. They find more blocks. They are very happy. They take the blocks to the living room and keep building and measuring.
+
+They use all the blocks they can find. They make their tower and bridge very big. They measure their blocks with a stick. Anna's tower is 80 centimeters tall. Ben's bridge is 75 centimeters long. They are very proud of their work.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is their mom. She is coming home from work. She sees the mess in the living room. She sees the blocks everywhere. She sees the pass open. She is very angry. She has a harsh voice. She says, "What have you done? You made a big mess. You took the blocks from the attic. You opened the pass. You are not allowed to do that. You have to clean up now. And no more blocks for a week."
+
+Anna and Ben are very sad. They cry. They say, "We are sorry, mom. We just wanted to play. We just wanted to measure our blocks. We didn't know we were not allowed to do that. Please don't be mad at us. Please let us keep our blocks."
+
+Mom sighs. She sees their sad faces. She sees their big tower and bridge. She knows they worked hard. She knows they had fun. She softens her voice. She says, "I understand, Anna and Ben. You are very creative and clever. You made amazing things with your blocks. But you have to follow the rules. You have to ask before you take things. You have to close the pass. You have to clean up after you play. Do you understand?"
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They say, "We understand, mom. We are sorry. We will follow the rules. We will clean up. We will close the pass. We will ask before we take things. Can we keep our blocks?"
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "Yes, you can keep your blocks. But only after you clean up. And only if you promise to be careful and respectful. And only if you give me a hug and a kiss."
+
+Anna and Ben hug and kiss their mom. They say, "We promise, mom. We love you, mom. Thank you, mom."
+
+They clean up their mess. They put the blocks back in the box. They close the pass. They keep their tower and bridge in a corner. They are happy. They learned a lesson. They still like to play with blocks. They still like to measure their blocks. But they also like to follow the rules. And they love their mom.
+Lily liked to go to the zoo with her mom. She loved to see the animals and learn their names. Her favorite animal was the gorilla. She thought they were big and strong and funny.
+
+One day, she saw a new gorilla in the cage. He was smaller than the others and had a red hat on his head. Lily thought he was very original. She wanted to talk to him.
+
+"Hello, gorilla," she said. "What is your name?"
+
+The gorilla looked at her and smiled. He said, "My name is Bobo. I am new here. I came from another zoo."
+
+"Wow, Bobo, you are very brave," Lily said. "Do you like it here?"
+
+Bobo nodded. He said, "Yes, I do. The other gorillas are nice to me. They let me play with them and share their food. They also teach me new things."
+
+"Like what?" Lily asked.
+
+Bobo said, "Like how to swing on the ropes and make funny noises and hide from the zookeepers. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, please. Can you show me?"
+
+Bobo said, "Sure. Follow me. I will lead you to the funniest spot in the cage."
+
+Lily followed Bobo. He led her to a corner where there was a big pile of leaves and a hole in the fence. He said, "This is where we go when we want to have some fun. We can sneak out and explore the zoo. Do you want to come with me?"
+
+Lily was curious. She said, "Yes, I do. But what if we get lost or in trouble?"
+
+Bobo said, "Don't worry. I know the way. And I have my hat. It will protect us from the sun and the rain and the birds. Come on, let's go."
+
+Lily agreed. She said, "OK, Bobo. Let's go. But we have to be back before my mom looks for me."
+
+Bobo said, "OK, Lily. Let's go. We will have a lot of fun."
+
+They crawled through the hole and ran out of the cage. They went to see the other animals and have some adventures. They were very original and very happy.
+Anna and Ben like to play hide and seek. They take turns to hide and find each other. One day, they play in the big park. There are many trees and bushes to hide behind.
+
+Anna counts to ten and then looks for Ben. She walks around the park and calls his name. She does not see him. She thinks he is very good at hiding. She goes to the big slide and looks under it. She does not see him there either.
+
+She hears a noise behind a bush. She thinks it is Ben. She runs to the bush and says, "I found you!" But it is not Ben. It is a big figure with a scary mask. It jumps out and says, "Boo!"
+
+Anna is very scared. She screams and runs away. She cries and looks for Ben. She thinks the figure is chasing her.
+
+Ben hears Anna scream. He comes out of his hiding spot. He sees the figure with the mask. He knows it is his big brother, Tom. He is playing a trick on them. He is not nice.
+
+Ben runs to Anna and hugs her. He says, "Don't be scared. It is not real. It is Tom. He is being silly. He is not funny. He is mean."
+
+Anna stops crying. She sees Tom take off the mask. She is angry. She says, "Tom, you are bad. You scare me. You are not my friend. Go away."
+
+Tom says, "Sorry, Anna. I was just joking. I didn't mean to scare you. I wanted to play with you."
+
+Anna and Ben do not listen to him. They do not want to play with him. They go to the swings and have fun. They are happy. They are friends.
+Lily loved to read books. She had many books in her room. She read them every day. She read them before bed. She read them when she was bored. She read them when she was happy.
+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom. She brought her favorite book with her. It was a book about a princess and a dragon. She put the book in her jacket pocket. She wanted to read it on the bench.
+
+But when she got to the park, she saw a boy. He was playing with a ball. He looked fun. Lily wanted to play with him. She ran to him and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. Can I play with you?"
+
+The boy looked at her and said, "No, you can't. This is my ball. Go away."
+
+Lily felt sad. She said, "But I want to be your friend. Can we share the ball?"
+
+The boy said, "No, you can't. This is my park. Go away."
+
+Lily felt angry. She said, "You are mean. You are spoiled. You don't share. You don't have any friends."
+
+The boy said, "I don't care. I have everything I want. You have nothing. Go away."
+
+Lily felt hurt. She turned around and ran back to her mom. She took out her book from her jacket pocket. She said, "Mom, I don't want to play with that boy. He is mean. He is spoiled. He doesn't share. He doesn't have any friends. I have my book. My book is better. My book is my friend."
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. Some people are mean. Some people are spoiled. They don't know how to be nice. They don't know how to be happy. You are smart. You are kind. You know how to read. You know how to be happy. I'm proud of you, Lily. I love you, Lily."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I love you too, Mom. Can we read my book together?"
+
+Her mom said, "Of course, Lily. Let's read your book together."
+Ben and Lily were playing in the yard. They liked to make things with sticks and stones and leaves. They found a big pile of dry leaves and decided to make a nest for their toy birds.
+
+"Look, our birds have a cozy home!" Lily said, putting a blue bird in the nest.
+
+"Let's make it more cozy. Let's make a fire!" Ben said, picking up a match from the ground. He had seen his dad use matches to light candles.
+
+"No, Ben, fire is bad! Fire can hurt us and the birds!" Lily said, scared. She tried to take the match from Ben, but he was faster.
+
+"Fire is fun! Watch!" Ben said, striking the match and throwing it into the nest. The leaves caught fire and made a big flame. The toy birds melted and burned.
+
+"Ben, what did you do? You changed our nest into a fire! You are mean!" Lily cried, running away from the fire.
+
+The fire spread quickly and reached the fence. The fence was made of wood and it burned too. The fire reached the house and the curtains. The house was made of bricks, but the curtains were made of cloth and they burned too.
+
+The fire alarm went off and made a loud noise. Ben and Lily's mom and dad came out of the house and saw the fire. They were angry and scared. They called the firemen and tried to put out the fire with water.
+
+The firemen came with a big truck and a hose. They sprayed water on the fire and made it smaller. They put out the fire and made it stop.
+
+But it was too late. The house was damaged and the toys were gone. Ben and Lily's mom and dad were sad and mad. They hugged Lily and scolded Ben.
+
+"Ben, you were very naughty and careless. You played with fire and you changed our home into a mess. You could have hurt yourself and Lily and us. You are in big trouble!" they said.
+
+Ben felt sorry and ashamed. He wished he had listened to Lily and not played with fire. He wished he could change everything back to how it was before. But he couldn't. He had made a big mistake and he had to face the consequences. He had learned a hard lesson.
+Anna and Ben were twins who loved to play in the snow. They made snowmen, snowballs and snow angels. But one day, the snow started to melt. It became wet and muddy. Anna and Ben were sad. They thought the snow was fun and the mud was boring.
+
+"Where did the snow go?" Anna asked.
+
+"It vanished," Ben said. "It turned into water and went away."
+
+"Will it come back?" Anna wondered.
+
+"Maybe next winter," Ben said. "But that's a long time."
+
+They wished they could see the snow again. They wished they could have a new adventure.
+
+That night, they heard a strange noise outside their window. They looked out and saw a big sleigh with eight reindeer. The reindeer had shiny noses and antlers. They were pulling the sleigh through the air. On the sleigh, there was a man with a red suit and a white beard. He had a big sack of presents. He waved at Anna and Ben and smiled.
+
+"Hello, Anna and Ben!" he said. "I'm Santa Claus. I heard you miss the snow. Do you want to come with me to the North Pole?"
+
+Anna and Ben were amazed. They nodded and ran to the door. They put on their coats and boots and climbed on the sleigh. Santa gave them each a warm blanket and a candy cane. He snapped his fingers and the reindeer flew faster. They soared over the houses and the trees and the stars. They saw the moon and the clouds and the northern lights. They felt the cold wind and the snowflakes on their faces. They laughed and sang and hugged each other.
+
+"This is not boring at all!" Anna said.
+
+"This is the best adventure ever!" Ben said.
+
+They thanked Santa for taking them to the North Pole. They saw his workshop and his elves and his toys. They played with the reindeer and the snowmen and the snowballs. They had hot chocolate and cookies and cake. They felt happy and cozy and sleepy.
+
+Santa tucked them in their beds and gave them each a kiss. He said he had to go and deliver more presents to other children. He said he would come back next year. He said he was glad they loved the snow. He said they were good and brave and kind.
+
+"Good night, Anna and Ben!" he said. "Merry Christmas!"
+
+He climbed on his sleigh and waved goodbye. The reindeer flew away with him. They vanished into the night. Anna and Ben closed their eyes and dreamed of snow.
+Lily liked to fix things. She had a box of screws and a screwdriver. She would find broken toys and make them work again. She was very independent and did not need help.
+
+One day, she saw a chair with a loose leg. She decided to fix it. She took her box of screws and her screwdriver and went to the chair. She put a screw in the hole and turned it with the screwdriver. She did the same for the other holes.
+
+"Look, Mommy, I fixed the chair!" she said proudly. She stood on the chair to show her mom.
+
+"Wow, Lily, you are very clever and independent!" her mom said. "But be careful, standing on the chair is not safe. You might fall and hurt yourself."
+
+Lily listened to her mom. She got down from the chair and gave her mom a hug. She was happy that she fixed the chair, but she also knew that she had to be safe. She put her box of screws and her screwdriver away and went to play with her toys.
+Tom and Mia are playing with their toys in the living room. They have a lot of fun with their cars, dolls, and blocks. But they also see a big box on the shelf. The box has a picture of a train on it. Tom and Mia love trains. They want to see what is inside the box.
+
+"Can we open the box, Mom?" Tom asks.
+
+"No, you can't, Tom. That box is for your dad. It is his birthday present. It is very fragile. That means it can break easily. You have to wait until he comes home," Mom says.
+
+"But we want to see the train, Mom. Please, please, please," Mia begs.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mia. You have to be patient. The train is not a toy. It is a model. Your dad likes to make models. He will be very happy when he sees the box. You can help him make the train later, if he lets you. But you can't touch the box now. It is a surprise," Mom says.
+
+Tom and Mia are not happy. They really want to see the train. They think Mom is not looking. They sneak to the shelf. They try to remove the box. But the box is too heavy. It slips from their hands. It falls to the floor. It makes a loud noise. Mom hears the noise. She runs to the living room. She sees the box on the floor. She sees Tom and Mia. She is very angry.
+
+"What have you done, Tom and Mia? You have ruined your dad's present. You have broken the train. You have not listened to me. You have not been true. You have been naughty. You have to say sorry. You have to go to your room. You have to think about what you have done," Mom says.
+
+Tom and Mia are very sad. They know they have made a big mistake. They say sorry to Mom. They go to their room. They cry. They wish they had not touched the box. They wish they had waited for Dad. They wish they had been good. They hope Dad will forgive them. They hope they can still make him happy. They hope they can still see the train.
+Anna and Ben like to bake with Mom. They help Mom to mix flour, eggs, milk and sugar in a big bowl. Mom says, "This is the batter for the cake. We will bake it in the oven and then we can eat it."
+
+Anna and Ben are very happy. They want to eat the cake soon. They put on their aprons and help Mom to pour the batter into a pan. Mom puts the pan in the oven and sets the timer. She says, "We have to wait for 20 minutes. The cake will be hot and yummy."
+
+Anna and Ben are bored. They want to play. They see Mom's pants on the chair. They have an idea. They take Mom's pants and put them on their heads. They pretend to be elephants. They say, "Look at us, Mom! We are elephants! We have long trunks!"
+
+Mom hears them and laughs. She says, "You are very funny, Anna and Ben. But those are not trunks. Those are my pants. Please take them off and put them back on the chair."
+
+Anna and Ben do what Mom says. They say, "Sorry, Mom. We were just playing. We love you."
+
+Mom says, "I love you too, Anna and Ben. You are great kids. Now, the timer is ringing. The cake is ready. Let's go and eat it."
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the garden. They see a big plant with green leaves and purple flowers. Anna says, "What is this?"
+
+Ben says, "This is a bean plant. My mom grows beans. She says they are good for us."
+
+Anna says, "Can we pick some beans?"
+
+Ben says, "No, we have to be careful. The beans are delicate. They can break easily. We have to wait until they are ripe."
+
+Anna says, "How do we know when they are ripe?"
+
+Ben says, "We have to look at the color. When they are green, they are not ripe. When they are yellow, they are ripe. Then we can pick them and eat them."
+
+Anna and Ben decide to lead the bean plant. They tie a string to the stem and pull it gently. They make the plant grow along the fence. They say, "Grow, bean plant, grow!"
+
+Every day, they check the beans. They see them change from green to yellow. They are happy. They say, "The beans are ripe! We can pick them and eat them!"
+
+They pick some beans and wash them. They share them with their moms. They say, "These are the best beans ever! We grew them ourselves!" Their moms are proud of them. They say, "You are good gardeners! You took care of the bean plant. You were gentle and patient. You deserve a treat!"
+
+They give them some cookies and milk. Anna and Ben smile. They say, "Thank you, mom! We love you and we love beans!"
+Lily and Sam were best friends. They liked to play outside in the sun. But one day, it was raining hard. Lily and Sam were sad. They wanted to go out and have fun.
+
+"Can we play in the rain?" Lily asked her mom.
+
+"Sure, but you need to wear your raincoats and boots. And take an umbrella with you," her mom said.
+
+Lily and Sam put on their raincoats and boots. Lily chose a bright yellow umbrella. Sam chose a blue one with stars. They went outside and opened their umbrellas.
+
+"Wow, look at the raindrops!" Lily said. "They make funny sounds on the umbrella."
+
+"Yeah, and look at the puddles!" Sam said. "They are like little lakes."
+
+Lily and Sam jumped in the puddles. They splashed and laughed. They saw a worm crawling on the ground.
+
+"Hello, worm!" Lily said. "Are you having fun in the rain?"
+
+The worm did not answer. It just wiggled and wriggled.
+
+"Maybe he is shy," Sam said. "Let's encourage him to join us."
+
+"How?" Lily asked.
+
+Sam had an idea. He bent down and whispered to the worm.
+
+"Hey, worm, don't be afraid. We are your friends. We like the rain, too. Come and play with us. We have umbrellas to keep you dry."
+
+The worm looked at Sam and Lily. He saw their smiling faces and their colorful umbrellas. He felt curious and happy. He decided to give it a try.
+
+He crawled out of the dirt and onto Sam's hand. Sam lifted him up and put him on his umbrella. The worm felt the raindrops bounce off the umbrella. He felt the wind blow the umbrella. He felt the sun peek through the clouds. He felt the joy of playing with Lily and Sam.
+
+He smiled and said, "Thank you, friends. You are very kind. I like the rain, too. And I like your umbrellas. They are bright and beautiful."
+Sara loved to play the violin. She had a small violin that her grandma gave her. She liked to make music with it. She played it every day in her room.
+
+One day, Sara wanted to play the violin for her friends. She asked her mom if she could. Her mom said yes, but she had to be polite. She had to ask her friends if they wanted to hear her play. She had to say please and thank you. She had to share her violin if they wanted to try.
+
+Sara was happy. She took her violin and went to the park. She saw her friends Lily and Ben. She said hello to them. She asked them if they wanted to hear her play the violin. Lily said yes, she liked music. Ben said no, he liked cars. Sara said that was okay. She played a song for Lily. Lily clapped and said it was beautiful. Sara said thank you. She asked Lily if she wanted to try the violin. Lily said yes, please. Sara gave her the violin and showed her how to hold it. Lily tried to play, but it sounded funny. Sara helped her and said it was good. Lily said thank you and gave the violin back to Sara.
+
+Ben watched them and felt curious. He asked Sara if he could try the violin too. Sara said yes, of course. She was polite and allowed him to play. She gave him the violin and showed him how to hold it. Ben tried to play, but it sounded loud and noisy. Sara said it was okay. She said he could play better if he practiced. Ben said he liked the violin, but he liked cars more. He said thank you and gave the violin back to Sara.
+
+Sara, Lily and Ben played together in the park. They had fun. Sara was happy. She liked to play the violin. She liked to be polite. She liked to share. She liked her friends.
+Lily loves to sing. She sings all the time. She sings in the morning, in the afternoon, and at night. She sings to her toys, to her mom, and to her dad. She sings loud and happy.
+
+One day, Lily sees a microphone in the store. It is shiny and big. It has a button and a cord. Lily wants the microphone. She asks her mom, "Can I have the microphone, please?"
+
+Her mom says, "Why do you want the microphone, Lily?"
+
+Lily says, "Because I love to sing. And the microphone makes my voice louder and better. And I can sing to more people. And they will like my songs. And I will be important."
+
+Her mom smiles and hugs Lily. She says, "Lily, you are important. You are important to me, and to dad, and to your toys. And you have a beautiful voice. You don't need a microphone to sing. You can sing with your heart. And I will always listen to you."
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She says, "You are right, mom. I don't need a microphone. I have you. And you are the best listener. Can we sing together?"
+
+Her mom says, "Of course, Lily. Let's sing together. What song do you want to sing?"
+
+Lily says, "I want to sing the song you taught me. The one that says, 'I love you, you love me, we are a happy family.'"
+
+Her mom says, "I know that song. I love that song. Let's sing it loud and happy."
+
+And they sing the song, holding hands, in the store. And they don't care about the microphone. And they are happy.
+Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, they found a big, hairy dog. The dog was friendly and wagged its tail. Lily and Tom wanted to pet the dog, but they were afraid.
+
+"Let's make a promise," Lily said. "We will pet the dog together. You go first, then I go."
+
+"OK," Tom said. He was brave and walked to the dog. He reached out his hand and touched the dog's fur. The dog licked his hand and made a happy sound. Tom smiled and said, "See, he is nice. Your turn, Lily."
+
+Lily nodded and took a step. But then she saw the dog's teeth. They were big and sharp. She got scared and ran away. She tripped and fell on the ground. She hurt her knee and cried.
+
+Tom heard her cry and ran to her. He saw her knee was bleeding. He felt sorry for her and hugged her. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I broke our promise. I should have stayed with you. Are you OK?"
+
+Lily sniffed and said, "It's OK, Tom. You didn't mean to. I was silly and ran away. My knee hurts, but I'll be OK."
+
+They heard the dog bark and looked up. The dog was still wagging its tail. He came to them and licked their faces. He was not mean, he was just playful. Lily and Tom laughed and petted the dog. They made a new promise: to be friends with the dog and each other.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a stream with many stones and fish. They wanted to cross the stream, but they did not have a bridge.
+
+"Let's make a bridge with the stones!" said Tom.
+
+"Good idea!" said Lily.
+
+They picked up some stones and threw them into the stream. They tried to make a path from one side to the other. But some stones were too big and some were too small. They could not balance on them.
+
+"I have an idea!" said Lily. "We can weigh the stones with this stick. The stick will tell us if the stone is heavy or light. We can use the heavy stones for the bottom and the light stones for the top. Then the bridge will be strong and stable."
+
+"That's very clever!" said Tom.
+
+They found a stick and used it as a scale. They weighed the stones and sorted them by size. They built a bridge with the stones, layer by layer. They tested the bridge with their feet. It was firm and steady.
+
+"Yay! We did it!" they cheered.
+
+They crossed the stream on their bridge. They were happy and proud. They saw more fish and flowers on the other side. They continued to play and explore. They had a lot of fun.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they find a big flashlight in the garage. They want to use it to explore the dark.
+
+"Let's march to the woods!" Tom says. "We can see what is there with the flashlight."
+
+"OK!" Anna says. "But we have to be careful. The woods are scary."
+
+They take the flashlight and march to the woods. They see many trees and animals. They hear many noises. They are not afraid. They have the flashlight.
+
+But then, the flashlight stops working. It is out of batteries. Tom and Anna are in the dark. They are scared. They do not know how to go back.
+
+"Help!" Tom cries. "We are lost!"
+
+"Help!" Anna cries. "We are alone!"
+
+They hug each other. They wish they had not gone to the woods. They wish they had stayed home.
+
+Then, they see a light. It is their dad. He has a flashlight too. He has been looking for them. He is angry and worried.
+
+"Tom! Anna! What are you doing here?" he asks. "You should not go to the woods without me. It is dangerous. You could get hurt."
+
+"Sorry, dad," Tom says. "We wanted to explore. We found a flashlight. But it stopped working. We were scared."
+
+"Sorry, dad," Anna says. "We wanted to have fun. We marched to the woods. But we got lost. We were alone."
+
+Dad hugs them. He is glad they are safe. He takes them back home. He gives them some dry clothes. He tells them a story.
+
+"Next time, you have to listen to me," he says. "I know what is best for you. I love you. You have to be smart and careful. The woods are not a place to play. The flashlight is not a toy. You have to respect nature and things."
+
+Tom and Anna nod. They understand. They say sorry again. They hug dad. They love him too. They have learned a lesson. They will not march to the woods again. They will stay home and play with their toys. They will be happy.
+Sara was very happy today. She had a new toy. It was a delicate fairy doll with wings and a dress. She wanted to play with it all day.
+
+She lifted the fairy doll and made it fly in the air. She said, "Hello, fairy. You are so pretty. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+The fairy doll smiled and nodded. She said, "Yes, Sara. I want to be your friend. You are very kind. Can you show me your room?"
+
+Sara was surprised. She did not know the fairy doll could talk. She said, "Of course, fairy. Come with me. I have many things to show you."
+
+She lifted the fairy doll again and ran to her room. She showed her the fairy doll her bed, her books, her toys, and her pictures. The fairy doll liked everything. She said, "You have a nice room, Sara. You are very lucky. Can I stay with you?"
+
+Sara hugged the fairy doll and said, "Yes, fairy. You can stay with me. You are my new best friend. I love you."
+
+The fairy doll said, "I love you too, Sara. You make me happy. Thank you for lifting me and playing with me today."
+Lily and Ben are playing hide and seek in the garden. Lily counts to ten and then looks for Ben. She sees a big bush with red flowers. She thinks Ben might be hiding there. She walks to the bush and peeks behind it.
+
+"Boo!" Ben shouts and jumps out. He makes Lily laugh and scream. He gives her a hug and says, "You found me! You are good at this game!"
+
+Lily and Ben hear a buzzing sound. They look up and see a fly. The fly is black and shiny. It has big eyes and wings. It flies around the bush and the flowers. Lily and Ben want to catch the fly. They run after it and try to grab it.
+
+"Come here, fly!" Lily says. "We want to see you!"
+
+But the fly is too fast and smart. It flies away from Lily and Ben. It flies to the fence and lands on a hole. The hole is open and dark. The fly goes inside the hole.
+
+Lily and Ben follow the fly to the fence. They see the hole and wonder what is inside. They are curious and brave. They peek into the hole.
+
+"Hello, fly!" Ben says. "Are you there?"
+
+But the fly does not answer. The hole is quiet and empty. Lily and Ben are disappointed. They wanted to play with the fly.
+
+"Maybe the fly has a home in the hole," Lily says. "Maybe it has a family and friends."
+
+"Maybe," Ben says. "Or maybe it went to another garden."
+
+Lily and Ben decide to leave the fly alone. They go back to the bush and the flowers. They play hide and seek again. They have fun and forget about the fly.
+Lila and Tom were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a cricket on the grass. It was small and green and made a funny sound.
+
+"Look, a cricket!" Lila said. "Let's catch it and keep it as a pet."
+
+Tom nodded and ran after the cricket. But the cricket was fast and jumped away. Tom tried to catch it with his hands, but he missed.
+
+"Wait for me, Tom!" Lila said. She followed Tom, but she was slow. She had a sore leg from falling down yesterday.
+
+Tom did not wait for Lila. He wanted to catch the cricket by himself. He chased the cricket across the yard, but he did not see the big rock in his way. He tripped over the rock and fell down. He scraped his knee and started to cry.
+
+Lila heard Tom cry and ran to him. She saw his knee and felt sorry for him.
+
+"Are you okay, Tom?" she asked. She gave him a hug and a band-aid.
+
+Tom stopped crying and said, "Thank you, Lila. You are a good friend. I'm sorry I did not wait for you. I was selfish and greedy. I wanted the cricket all for myself."
+
+Lila smiled and said, "That's okay, Tom. I forgive you. But you know, the cricket is not ours. It belongs to the wild. We should let it go and be free."
+
+Tom nodded and said, "You are right, Lila. The cricket is not a toy. It is a living thing. We should respect it and let it live in peace."
+
+They found the cricket on a flower and gently lifted it. They said goodbye to the cricket and let it go. The cricket jumped away and made a happy sound.
+
+Lila and Tom learned a lesson that day. They learned to share, to be careful, and to love nature. They also learned that friendship is more important than anything. They held hands and went back to their house. They were happy and proud of themselves.
+Lily was a little girl who loved to run. She ran in the park, she ran in the school, she ran in the house. She liked to feel the wind in her hair and the speed in her legs. She ran so fast that sometimes she left her friends behind.
+
+One day, she saw a big dog in the park. The dog was brown and furry and had a long tail. Lily wanted to run with the dog. She ran after the dog and called, "Hello, dog! Do you want to play?" The dog looked at her and wagged his tail. He ran with Lily and they had fun.
+
+But then, the dog stopped. He saw a man with a leash and a collar. The man was his owner. The dog ran to the man and licked his face. The man smiled and said, "Good boy, Rex. You belong with me." He put the leash and the collar on the dog and walked away.
+
+Lily felt sad. She wanted to play with the dog more. She wanted the dog to belong with her. She ran after the dog and the man and said, "Please, can I play with your dog? He is so nice and fast." The man looked at her and said, "Sorry, little girl. Rex is my dog. He is not yours. You have to find your own dog."
+
+Lily stopped running. She felt tired and sleepy. She walked back to the park and sat on a bench. She wished she had a dog of her own. A dog that would run with her and play with her and belong with her. She closed her eyes and dreamed of a dog. A dog that was brown and furry and had a long tail. A dog that was hers.
+Ben and Mia were playing in the park. They saw a big bird in the sky. It had black and white feathers and a long yellow beak. It was a hawk.
+
+"Look, look!" Ben said. "The bird can soar high and fast. It is looking for meat to eat."
+
+Mia nodded. She liked to watch the bird. It was new to her. She had never seen a hawk before.
+
+Suddenly, the hawk dived down. It saw a mouse on the ground. It grabbed the mouse with its claws and flew away.
+
+"Wow!" Mia said. "The bird got its meat. It is very strong and smart."
+
+Ben agreed. He wished he could soar like the hawk. He imagined he had wings and could fly over the trees and the houses.
+
+"Maybe one day we can soar too," he said. "But not today. Today we have to go home and eat our lunch."
+
+Mia smiled. She was hungry too. She wondered what they would have for lunch. Maybe they would have meat too, but not mouse meat. She did not like mouse meat. She liked chicken and fish and ham.
+
+They held hands and ran to their mom. She was waiting for them on a bench. She had a new bag with their lunch inside.
+
+"Are you ready to eat?" she asked. "I have something new for you today. It is a surprise."
+
+Ben and Mia were curious. They opened the bag and saw two sandwiches. They had bread and cheese and meat. But the meat was not chicken or fish or ham. It was turkey.
+
+"Turkey?" Ben said. "What is turkey?"
+
+"It is a kind of bird," mom said. "But not like the hawk. It is bigger and fatter and it cannot soar. It lives on a farm and people eat it on special days."
+
+Ben and Mia looked at each other. They shrugged. They did not care if the meat was from a bird that could soar or not. They were hungry and the sandwiches looked yummy. They took a big bite and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, mom," they said. "We like turkey. It is new and good."
+Tom and Mia are playing with their toys in the living room. Tom has a toy car and Mia has a toy doll. They are having fun making noises and moving their toys around.
+
+Suddenly, Tom sees something shiny on the shelf. It is a laser pointer that belongs to their dad. Tom likes shiny things, so he climbs on the couch and reaches for the laser pointer. He turns it on and sees a bright red dot on the wall.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Tom says to Mia. "It is a laser. It makes a red light."
+
+Mia looks at the laser and wonders what it is. She has never seen a laser before. She wants to try it too, so she asks Tom to share.
+
+"Can I have a turn, Tom? Please?" Mia says.
+
+Tom is not very good at sharing. He likes the laser too much. He shakes his head and says, "No, it is mine. You have your doll. Go play with your doll."
+
+Mia feels sad and angry. She thinks Tom is being mean. She looks around and sees an orange crayon on the floor. She gets an idea. She picks up the crayon and draws a big circle on the wall.
+
+"Look, Tom, I have a laser too. It makes an orange light." Mia says.
+
+Tom looks at the wall and sees the orange circle. He is surprised and confused. He wonders how Mia made a laser with a crayon. He wants to see it closer, so he walks towards the wall.
+
+But as he walks, he steps on his toy car and slips. He falls on the floor and drops the laser pointer. The laser pointer rolls under the couch.
+
+"Ouch!" Tom says. "That hurt. Where is my laser?"
+
+Mia sees Tom fall and feels sorry for him. She also sees the laser pointer under the couch. She decides to be nice and help Tom. She crawls under the couch and gets the laser pointer. She gives it to Tom and says, "Here, Tom, here is your laser. Are you okay?"
+
+Tom takes the laser pointer and says, "Thank you, Mia. I am okay. I am sorry I was mean to you. Do you want to play with the laser together?"
+
+Mia smiles and says, "Yes, Tom, I do. Let's play with the laser and the crayon. We can make different colors and shapes on the wall."
+
+Tom and Mia hug and say, "We are sorry. We are friends."
+
+They play with the laser and the crayon and have fun. They learn to share and wonder about the world.
+Sara was a popular youth in her class. She had many friends who liked to play with her. She was good at sharing, singing and drawing. She also liked to chew gum, but she knew she had to spit it out before school.
+
+One day, she forgot to spit out her gum and went to school with it in her mouth. She was sitting next to Ben, who was her best friend. Ben saw her chewing and whispered to her.
+
+"Hey, Sara, you have gum in your mouth. You should spit it out. The teacher will be angry if she sees you."
+
+Sara whispered back, "I know, Ben, but I like to chew gum. It makes me happy. And the teacher won't see me. I will hide it under my tongue."
+
+Ben shook his head. He thought Sara was being silly. He wanted to help her, but he didn't know how. He hoped the teacher wouldn't notice.
+
+But the teacher did notice. She saw Sara moving her mouth and making bubbles. She walked up to her and said in a loud voice, "Sara, what are you doing? Do you have something in your mouth?"
+
+Sara was scared. She tried to swallow her gum, but it was too big. She choked and coughed. The gum came out of her mouth and landed on her desk. The teacher was very angry. She took the gum and threw it in the trash. She told Sara to stand in the corner and think about what she did.
+
+Sara felt very sad. She wished she had listened to Ben. She realized that chewing gum was not worth getting in trouble. She learned her lesson. She decided to never chew gum in school again. She hoped her friends and the teacher would forgive her. She said sorry to Ben and the teacher. They said it was okay, but they told her to be more careful next time. Sara nodded and smiled. She was glad they were still her friends. She was still a popular youth, but she was also a wiser one.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They wanted to make a cake for Mom. They found a big bowl, some flour, some eggs, some milk and some sugar. They put everything in the bowl and started to stir.
+
+"Stir, stir, stir!" Lily said. "We are good cooks!"
+
+"Yes, we are!" Ben said. "But we need something else. Something to make the cake yummy."
+
+He looked around and saw a jar on the shelf. It had a red label and a picture of a pepper. He reached for it and opened it. It smelled spicy.
+
+"Look, Lily!" he said. "This is spike. It will make the cake hot and tasty. Let's put some in the bowl."
+
+He poured some of the spike in the bowl and stirred some more.
+
+"Stir, stir, stir!" he said. "Now the cake is ready!"
+
+Lily and Ben put the bowl in the oven and turned it on. They waited for a while and then took the bowl out. It was hot and smelled funny.
+
+"Let's try it!" Lily said. She took a spoon and scooped some of the cake. She put it in her mouth and then spit it out. It was very hot and burned her tongue.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" she cried. "This cake is bad! It hurts!"
+
+Ben took a spoon and scooped some of the cake too. He put it in his mouth and then spit it out. It was very hot and burned his tongue too.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" he cried. "This cake is bad! It hurts!"
+
+Mom heard them and came to the kitchen. She saw the bowl, the jar and the mess. She was angry and worried.
+
+"What did you do?" she asked. "Did you put spike in the cake? That is not for cakes. That is for spicy food. It is very hot and can hurt you. You should not touch things you do not know. You should ask me first. You could have been hurt more."
+
+She gave them some water and some ice to cool their tongues. She hugged them and said, "I love you, but you have to be careful. Next time, let me help you make a cake. OK?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They were sorry and learned their lesson. They said, "We love you, Mom. We are sorry. We will not do it again. Can we still make a cake with you?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Of course. But no more spike. OK?"
+
+They said, "OK. No more spike." And they hugged Mom and helped her clean the kitchen.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the living room. They had many toys, but they liked to make their own games. They saw a big chair near the window. It was pretty, with flowers and cushions.
+
+"Let's play house," Lily said. "I will be the mom and you will be the dad."
+
+"OK," Ben said. "What do we do?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She had an idea. She took a blanket and put it over the chair. She made a door with a gap. She said, "This is our house. We live here. Come inside."
+
+Ben followed her. He crawled under the blanket and into the chair. It was cozy and warm. He said, "This is a nice house. I like it."
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Me too. But we need something more. We need a baby."
+
+"A baby?" Ben asked. "Where do we get a baby?"
+
+Lily looked around. She saw her doll on the floor. She said, "There. That's our baby. You go and get her."
+
+Ben nodded. He crawled out of the chair and picked up the doll. He brought it back to Lily. He said, "Here. This is our baby. She is pretty, like you."
+
+Lily hugged the doll. She said, "Thank you. You are a good dad. You support me and our baby."
+
+Ben hugged Lily and the doll. He said, "You are welcome. You are a good mom. You love me and our baby."
+
+They cuddled in the chair and pretended to be a happy family. They felt safe and happy. They did not want to leave their house. They played until it was time for dinner.
+Lily and Ben liked to play with their toy penguin. They named him Pipo and gave him a red scarf. They took him everywhere they went, even to the park and the zoo. They loved Pipo very much.
+
+One day, they went to the beach with their mom and dad. They saw the big blue water and the white sand. They saw many birds and fish and shells. They wanted to show Pipo the beach. They put him on a towel and ran to the water.
+
+They splashed and swam and had fun. They forgot about Pipo for a while. Then they remembered and ran back to the towel. But Pipo was not there. They looked around and saw a big bird with a wide mouth. It was a seagull. It had Pipo in its beak. It was flying away with him.
+
+Lily and Ben cried and shouted. They tried to catch the bird, but it was too fast and too high. They could not manage to save Pipo. They watched him disappear in the sky. They felt very sad and angry. They lost their toy penguin. They wished they had not left him alone. They learned a hard lesson. They never saw Pipo again.
+Lila and Ben were friends who liked to play in the forest. They found a big bush with many red berries. They picked some berries and ate them. They were sweet and juicy.
+
+"Yum, these berries are good!" Lila said.
+
+"Let's take some home for mom and dad," Ben said.
+
+They filled their baskets with berries and started to walk back. But on the way, they met a big bear. The bear was hungry and saw the berries. He growled and ran towards them.
+
+"Give me your berries!" the bear said. He was very rude.
+
+Lila and Ben were scared. They did not want to give their berries to the bear. They worked hard to pick them. They wanted to share them with their parents.
+
+"No, these are our berries!" Lila said.
+
+"Go away, bear!" Ben said.
+
+They tried to run away, but the bear was faster. He caught up with them and grabbed their baskets. He spilled the berries on the ground and ate them all. He did not leave any for Lila and Ben.
+
+Lila and Ben were sad and angry. They cried and shouted at the bear.
+
+"That's not fair! You are a bad bear!" Lila said.
+
+"You are a mean and greedy bear!" Ben said.
+
+The bear did not care. He licked his lips and smiled. He was full and happy. He did not say sorry or thank you. He just walked away.
+
+Lila and Ben hugged each other. They had no berries left. They decided to go home and tell their parents what happened. They hoped the bear would not come back. They also hoped to find more berries another day. They learned to be careful in the forest. They also learned that some animals are rude and selfish. They wished the bear would learn to be nice and share.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they found a big yellow ball in the park. It was shiny and bouncy and fun. They took turns throwing and catching it.
+
+"Let's play catch with the ball!" Tom said.
+
+"OK, but be careful. Don't throw it too hard or too far," Lily said.
+
+Tom nodded and threw the ball to Lily. She caught it with both hands and smiled. She threw it back to Tom. He reached out his hands, but the ball was too fast. It hit his thumb and made it hurt.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Tom cried. He dropped the ball and held his thumb. It was red and sore.
+
+Lily ran to him and hugged him. "I'm sorry, Tom. Are you OK?"
+
+Tom shook his head. He felt tears in his eyes. "No, it hurts a lot. I want Mommy."
+
+Lily looked around. She saw their mom sitting on a bench nearby. She had a book in her lap and a hat on her head. She did not see them.
+
+"Mommy is over there. Come on, let's go to her. She will make it better," Lily said.
+
+She took Tom's hand and led him to their mom. She reminded him to be brave and not cry too loud. She knew their mom did not like noise.
+
+"Mommy, Mommy, look! Tom hurt his thumb. He needs a kiss and a band-aid," Lily said.
+
+Their mom looked up from her book and saw them. She saw Tom's thumb and felt sorry for him. She put down her book and took off her hat. She kissed his thumb and wrapped a band-aid around it.
+
+"There, there. It's OK, Tom. It will heal soon. You are a strong boy," she said.
+
+She hugged him and smiled. She was proud of him and Lily. They were good twins who played well together.
+
+She picked up the yellow ball and gave it to them. "Do you want to play with the ball some more?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They still liked the ball. It was shiny and bouncy and fun. But they learned to be more careful. They did not want to hurt their thumbs again.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play in nature. They liked to run on the grass, climb the trees, and look at the flowers. One day, they found a big hat in a bush. It was red and shiny and had a feather on it.
+
+"Wow, look at this hat!" Lily said. "It is so pretty and fancy. I want to wear it."
+
+"No, I want to wear it!" Tom said. "It is so cool and fun. Give it to me."
+
+They both grabbed the hat and pulled it. They did not want to share it. They started to argue and shout.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" a voice said. It was Mama Bird, who lived in the bush. She was angry and scared. "That is my hat. I found it in the trash and made it my nest. You are hurting my eggs!"
+
+Lily and Tom looked inside the hat. They saw four blue eggs with spots on them. They felt sorry and ashamed.
+
+"We are so sorry, Mama Bird," Lily said. "We did not know it was your home. We were being greedy and mean."
+
+"Yes, we are sorry, Mama Bird," Tom said. "We did not think about you and your babies. We were being silly and rude."
+
+They gave the hat back to Mama Bird and said sorry again. Mama Bird was kind and forgiving. She thanked them and invited them to see her eggs hatch someday.
+
+Lily and Tom learned a lesson. They learned to be humble and respectful. They learned to care about nature and its creatures. They learned to be good friends and share. They hugged each other and went to play somewhere else.
+Anna and Ben are friends who like to play in the park. They admire the birds and the flowers and the trees. They also like to run and jump and slide on the playground.
+
+One day, they see a new boy in the park. He has long hair and a big hat and a loud voice. He is riding a bike with many colors and stickers. He goes very fast and makes wild noises.
+
+"Who is that?" Anna asks Ben.
+
+"I don't know. He looks funny," Ben says.
+
+They watch the boy as he rides around the park. He does not stop or say hello to anyone. He does not follow the rules or wait his turn. He bumps into other kids and makes them cry.
+
+Anna and Ben do not like the boy. They think he is rude and mean. They are afraid of him. They want him to go away.
+
+"Let's tell the judge," Anna says.
+
+"The judge?" Ben asks.
+
+"Yes, the judge. She is the lady who works in the park. She wears a badge and a hat. She helps the kids and keeps them safe. She can tell the boy to stop," Anna says.
+
+"Okay, let's go," Ben says.
+
+They run to the judge and tell her about the boy. The judge listens and nods. She thanks them for telling her. She says she will talk to the boy and his parents. She says she will try to help him be nicer and make friends.
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They hope the boy will change and be kind. They go back to the playground and have fun. They admire the birds and the flowers and the trees. They also like to run and jump and slide. They are good friends.
+Ben likes to observe the birds in the park. He brings his binoculars and his book of bird names. He sits on a bench and waits for the birds to come. He sees a blue jay, a cardinal, a sparrow and a pigeon. He points to each one and says their name out loud.
+
+One day, he sees a new bird. It is big and white and has a long neck. It makes a loud honk sound. Ben does not know what it is. He looks in his book, but he cannot find it. He is curious and excited. He wants to get closer to the new bird.
+
+He gets off the bench and walks slowly towards the new bird. The new bird sees him and honks again. Ben thinks it is saying hello. He says hello back. He reaches out his hand to touch the new bird. The new bird does not like that. It bites Ben's hand with its big beak. Ben cries out in pain and runs back to the bench. He drops his binoculars and his book.
+
+A lady who works in the park sees what happens. She runs to Ben and helps him. She puts a band-aid on his hand and gives him a hug. She tells him that the new bird is a goose. She says that geese are not very friendly and do not like to be touched. She says that geese are popular in some places, but not in this park. She says that Ben should observe them from far away and not bother them.
+
+Ben nods and says he is sorry. He says he will not touch the geese again. He says he will only observe the nice birds. He picks up his binoculars and his book. He thanks the lady and smiles. He still likes to observe the birds in the park, but he stays away from the geese.
+Lily and Ben are small kids who like to play together. They have many toys, but their favorite is a big red ball. They can kick it, throw it, roll it, and bounce it.
+
+One day, they are playing with the ball in the park. They see a big dog with a long tail and floppy ears. The dog is friendly and wants to play too. He runs after the ball and catches it in his mouth.
+
+"Hey, that's our ball!" Lily says. "Give it back, doggy!"
+
+The dog wags his tail and drops the ball. He barks and licks Lily's face. She giggles and pets him.
+
+"Good doggy, you are so funny!" she says.
+
+Ben has an idea. He picks up the ball and says, "Let's play a joke on the doggy. I will pretend to throw the ball, but I will hide it behind my back. Then the doggy will look for it and be confused."
+
+Lily thinks that is a good joke. She nods and smiles.
+
+"OK, but you have to behave, Ben. Don't be mean to the doggy," she says.
+
