This made the little girl laugh because she had no idea how to ignore something. Her mom explained that sometimes it is better to ignore things rather than to take notice of them. + +The little girl found this very interesting. She went around all day trying to ignore things she came across - friends calling her name, her brother trying to get her attention. She even put the little stamp in her pocket as a reminder to ignore when she needed to. + +This made the little girl so happy.

He had a big grin on his face. + +"Silly Tia! Now I'm the judge!" he said. + +Tia smiled back, because she knew that James had taught her an important lesson.

They lived in a cozy house in the west. + +One day, the mommy and daddy wanted to try something new. So they took the baby to a thick, forest. + +The baby was so excited!

The tide kept getting higher and higher until it finally swept him away. The frog clapped his hands, hoping it would stop the tide, but nothing changed. + +He clapped and clapped, but it was no use. He was gone, and the tide had taken him away. +Once there were two friends, Sam and Ben. They liked to go for walks together. One day, Sam had the idea that they could improve their walk.

All around him, more and more kangaroos were spinning. They were black, brown, and grey. They spun around in circles, jumping and hopping and laughing. + +The black kangaroo stopped spinning in the middle of the group and watched as all of the kangaroos spun together.

He was playing with it and was having lots of fun. But then the baby put the stick in his mouth and tasted it. It was so bitter, he didn't like it. + +Mummy and Daddy explained to the baby that he must never put anything else in his mouth again. They said that some things can hurt him and some tastes can be really yucky. The baby understood, and from then on, he always kept the stick in his hand, where it was safe. +Once upon a time there was a silly duck who wanted to wander. He waddled to the nearby pond, where the spring sunshine was warm. He thought it was a perfect day to explore. + +The duck loved following the winding pathways around the pond.

I'm going to use my power to help people, not to hurt them." + +The frog shook its head and said, "Okay, Sarah. I won't hate your power anymore." Then the frog hopped away and Sarah was happy.

Go away." + +Mia felt sad and hurt. She did not understand why the bird was so mean. She said, "But I like you, bird. You are so colorful and bright. I want to be your friend. Please don't be mean to me." + +The bird said, "I don't care if you like me. You are not one of us. You are not welcome here. You are gloomy and boring. You have no feathers and no wings. You can't fly and you can't sing. You are nothing like me." + +Mia felt angry and hungry. She said, "Fine, if you don't want to be my friend, then I will taste you. You look yummy and juicy. I will eat you and make you my lunch." + +The bird was scared and shocked. He said, "What? You can't do that. That is not nice. That is not fair. You are a bad human. You are a monster. Help, help!" + +Mia ran towards the bird and tried to catch him. The bird flew away and escaped. He was safe, but he was also sorry. He realized that he was rude and wrong.

You have to stay inside." + +Lily said, "But mom, I'm lonely. I want to play with someone. Teddy is not enough." + +Her mom came to the door. She saw Lily's sad face. She felt sorry for her. She said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I know you're lonely. But I have to work today. I can't go to the park with you. Maybe we can go tomorrow. Or maybe you can call your grandma and talk to her. She loves you very much." + +Lily thought for a moment. She said, "Okay, mom. I understand. You have to work. But can I call grandma? Maybe she can tell me a story." + +Her mom smiled. She said, "Of course, Lily. You can call grandma. Here, take my phone. I'll be in the next room if you need me." + +Lily took the phone. She said, "Thank you, mom. I love you." She dialed her grandma's number. She hoped she would answer. She wanted to hear her voice. She wanted to feel less lonely. +Sam liked to help his mom in the kitchen. He wanted to be a good cook like her. Mom gave him a knife and a bowl of cheese. She said, "Sam, can you fill these tomatoes with cheese? They are for our guests. They will love them. They are very popular." + +Sam nodded and smiled. He took a knife and cut off the top of a tomato. He scooped out the seeds and juice. He put them in another bowl. He took some cheese and stuffed it inside the tomato. He did the same with the other tomatoes. He was very careful with the knife. He did not want to cut himself or the tomatoes. + +Mom watched him and praised him. She said, "You are doing a great job, Sam. You are very helpful and smart. I am proud of you." She gave him a hug and a kiss. She put the tomatoes in a baking dish and put them in the oven. She said, "Now we have to wait for them to bake. They will be hot and melty and yummy." + +Sam was happy. He liked to make mom happy. He liked to make food for the guests. He hoped they would like his cheese tomatoes.

Sam said, "Thank you, mom. I love you." Mom said, "I love you too, Sam." They hugged and smiled. +Lily and Ben were twins. They liked to play with toys, run in the park, and read books. But today, they had to stay at home. Mom said there was a big sick outside and they could not go out. Lily and Ben were very sad and bored. + +They looked at their toys, but they did not want to play with them. They looked at their books, but they did not want to read them. They looked at the window, but they only saw gray clouds and rain. They sighed and sat on the couch. + +"Can we watch TV?" Lily asked Mom. + +"No, TV is not good for you. You need to do something else," Mom said. + +"Like what?" Ben asked. + +"Like drawing, or singing, or making a puzzle," Mom said. + +Lily and Ben did not like those ideas. They wanted to do something fun and new. They looked around the house and saw a door. The door was in the hall and it was always closed. Mom and Dad never let them go inside. + +"What is in there?" Lily whispered to Ben. + +"I don't know. Let's find out," Ben whispered back. + +They got up from the couch and tiptoed to the door. They turned the knob and pushed it open. They saw a dark room with many things. There were boxes, and bags, and clothes, and books, and pictures, and toys. They looked like old things that Mom and Dad did not use anymore. + +"Wow, this is cool," Ben said. + +"Yeah, let's touch everything," Lily said. + +They ran into the room and started to touch everything. They opened the boxes and the bags and saw more things. They tried on the clothes and the hats and laughed. They looked at the books and the pictures and wondered. They played with the toys and made noises. They had a lot of fun and forgot about being bored. + +But they did not hear Mom coming. She heard the noises and followed them. She opened the door and saw Lily and Ben in the mess. + +"What are you doing here?" Mom asked. + +"Uh-oh," Lily and Ben said. +Sam liked to play with his toy cars. He had many cars of different colors and sizes. He liked to make them zoom and crash on the floor. He also liked to throw them in the air and catch them. + +One day, he saw a big truck on the street.

He waved back and honked his horn. + +"Wow, what an impressive truck!" Sam said. "I want to be a driver like him when I grow up." + +He ran back to his toy cars and picked up his favorite one. It was a blue car with a white stripe. He pretended it was a truck and made it zoom and honk. He threw it in the air and caught it. + +"Look, Mommy, I'm a driver!" he shouted. + +Mommy came to see what Sam was doing. She saw him playing with his toy car and smiled. + +"That's very good, Sam," she said. "You are a very good driver. But be careful not to throw your car too high. You might break it or hurt yourself." + +Sam nodded and hugged his car. He loved his car and his truck and his driver. He was happy. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to watch films on the big TV. One day, they see a new film about a dog and a cat. They want to watch it. + +But the film is not for them. It is for Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad say they can watch it later, after dinner. Lily and Ben are sad. They want to watch it now. + +Lily has an idea. She says to Ben, "Let's steal the film. We can watch it in my room. Mom and Dad will not know." + +Ben is shy. He says, "No, Lily. That is bad. Mom and Dad will be angry. We have to wait." + +Lily says, "No, Ben. It will be fun. Come on, be brave. I will get the film. You watch the door." + +Lily goes to the TV. She takes the film out of the box. She runs to her room. Ben follows her. They close the door. They put the film in the small TV. They sit on the bed. They watch the film. + +But Mom and Dad hear the film. They know what Lily and Ben did. They go to Lily's room. They knock on the door. They say, "Lily, Ben, open the door. We know you stole the film. That is wrong. You have to say sorry." + +Lily and Ben are scared. They turn off the TV. They open the door. They see Mom and Dad. They look down. They say, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, Dad. We were bad. We wanted to watch the film. We did not wait." + +Mom and Dad are not happy. They say, "Lily, Ben, you have to learn to share and to be patient. The film is not yours. It is ours. You have to ask before you take something. You have to respect our rules. You have to go to bed early. No more films for you tonight." + +Lily and Ben are sad. They say, "OK, Mom. OK, Dad. We understand. We will not do it again. We love you." + +Mom and Dad hug them. They say, "We love you too. But you have to be good. Now, go to bed. Good night." + +Lily and Ben go to bed.

Mark learned how to sign with his hands, so he could tell his mom and dad what he wanted and how he felt. + +One day, Mark went to the forest with his axe. He wanted to find a big tree to chop. He saw a tall pine tree with many branches. He thought it would make good firewood for the winter. He marked the tree with his axe, so he would remember it. Then he heard a loud noise. It was a bear, who was angry that Mark had marked his tree. + +The bear roared and ran towards Mark. Mark was scared and dropped his axe. He ran back to his house as fast as he could. He shouted for his mom and dad, but they could not hear him. He banged on the door, but they did not open it. He looked for a window, but they were all closed. He did not know what to do. + +The bear was getting closer and closer. Mark thought he was going to be eaten. He wished his mom and dad could hear him. He wished he had his axe. He wished he had not marked the bear's tree. He was very sorry. + +Then he saw something shiny on the ground. It was his dad's whistle, which he used to call Mark when he wanted him. Mark picked up the whistle and blew it as hard as he could. The whistle made a very loud sound, which the bear did not like. The bear stopped and covered his ears. He turned around and ran away. + +Mark's mom and dad heard the whistle. They opened the door and saw Mark. They were happy to see him, but they wondered why he had the whistle. Mark signed to them what had happened. He told them about the tree, the axe, and the bear. He said he was sorry for marking the bear's tree. He said he was glad they had the whistle. + +His mom and dad hugged him and told him they were proud of him. They said he was brave and smart. They said they loved him.

He was happy to have the whistle. He blew it again, just for fun. +Lily woke up in the morning and saw the sun shining through her window. She felt happy and jumped out of bed. She put on her pretty pink dress and ran to the kitchen. She smelled something yummy and saw her mom making pancakes. + +"Good morning, mom!" Lily said and gave her a hug. + +"Good morning, sweetie!" mom said and smiled. "Do you want some pancakes?" + +"Yes, please!" Lily said and sat on her chair. Mom put a plate of pancakes in front of her and poured some syrup on top. Lily took a big bite and said, "Mmm, these are the best pancakes ever!" + +"Thank you, Lily. You are the best daughter ever!" mom said and kissed her cheek. + +Lily finished her pancakes and asked, "Can I go outside and play?" + +"Sure, honey. But first, let's clean up the table and brush your teeth, okay?" mom said. + +"Okay, mom." Lily said and helped mom with the dishes. Then she went to the bathroom and brushed her teeth. She looked at herself in the mirror and said, "I look pretty today!" + +Mom came and said, "You do look pretty, Lily. And you are also smart and kind and brave. I'm so proud of you!" + +Lily felt warm and happy. She hugged mom and said, "I love you, mom!" + +"I love you too, Lily!" mom said and hugged her back. + +Lily put on her shoes and coat and went outside. She saw her friend Ben playing with his ball. She ran to him and said, "Hi, Ben! Do you want to play with me?" + +"Hi, Lily! Sure, I want to play with you!" Ben said and smiled. + +They played catch and tag and hopscotch. They laughed and had fun. They saw a bird singing on a tree. They stopped and listened. The bird had a beautiful voice. They clapped their hands and said, "Bravo, bird! You sing so well!" + +The bird looked at them and nodded. It sang some more and flew away. Lily and Ben waved goodbye and said, "Thank you, bird!" + +They continued to play until it was time to go home. They said goodbye to each other and promised to play again tomorrow. Lily went back to her house and told mom about her day. Mom listened and said, "You had a wonderful day, Lily. I'm glad you had fun." + +Lily nodded and said, "I did, mom. And I learned something new." + +"What did you learn, Lily?" mom asked. + +Lily said, "I learned that the world is full of pretty things and nice people. And that I'm lucky to have you and Ben and the bird as my friends." + +Mom smiled and said, "That's a very good lesson, Lily. And I learned something too." + +"What did you learn, mom?" Lily asked. + +Mom said, "I learned that you are the best gift I ever had. And that I'm lucky to have you as my daughter." + +They hugged and said, "I love you" to each other. Then they went to bed and dreamed of another happy day. +Sara and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to look for insects and learn their names. Sara saw a big, old ant on a leaf. She wanted to show Tom. + +"Look, Tom, an ant!" she said, pointing to the leaf. + +Tom came closer and looked at the ant. He saw that it had six legs, two antennae and a shiny black body. + +"Wow, it is an ant!" he said. "It is very old. See how big it is?" + +Sara nodded. She wondered what the ant was doing on the leaf. She saw that it was carrying a small piece of food in its mouth. + +"Maybe it is taking the food to its home," she said. "Do you know where its home is?" + +Tom shook his head. He did not know where the ant's home was. He wanted to find out. + +"Let's follow it and see," he said. "Maybe we can see its friends and family." + +Sara agreed. She thought that would be fun. She and Tom followed the ant as it crawled along the leaf, the stem, the ground and the grass. They were careful not to touch it or scare it. + +"Go, ant, go!" they encouraged. "You are doing great!" + +The ant did not seem to notice them. It kept moving towards a small hole in the ground. It reached the hole and disappeared inside. + +Sara and Tom stopped and looked at the hole. They wondered what was inside. + +"Maybe there are more ants like it," Sara said. "Maybe they have a big home with many rooms and tunnels." + +"Maybe they have a queen and a king," Tom said. "Maybe they have a lot of food and toys." + +Sara and Tom smiled. They imagined the ant's home and how happy it was. They felt happy too. They had learned something new and had a good adventure. + +They decided to leave the ant alone and look for other insects. They thanked the ant for showing them the way and wished it well. + +"Bye, ant!" they said. "Have a nice day!" +Lily was a gifted girl who liked to draw and paint. She had many colors and papers in her room. She could make beautiful pictures of animals, flowers, and people. She was very proud of her art. + +One day, her dad came home with a suit. He had a big meeting at work and he wanted to look nice. He showed Lily his suit and asked her what she thought. Lily liked the suit, but she had an idea. + +She ran to her room and got her paints and a brush. She came back and said, "Dad, can I show you something?" Her dad smiled and said, "Sure, what is it?" Lily said, "I can make your suit more pretty. Can I paint on it?" + +Her dad was surprised and said, "No, no, Lily, you can't paint on my suit. It's not for painting, it's for wearing. If you paint on it, it will be ruined. I can't wear it to my meeting." + +Lily was sad and said, "But I want to show you my art. I want to make you happy. I'm gifted, remember?" Her dad hugged her and said, "I know you are gifted, Lily, and I love your art. But you can't paint on my suit. How about you paint on a paper and give it to me as a gift? I can hang it in my office and see it every day. Would you like that?" + +Lily nodded and said, "Yes, I would like that. I'm sorry, dad. I didn't know." Her dad said, "It's okay, Lily. I'm not mad. I'm glad you want to share your art with me. You are a very gifted and sweet girl. Now, let's go and find a paper for you to paint on." They went to her room and Lily painted a picture of her dad in his suit. She gave it to him and he thanked her and kissed her. He said, "This is the best gift ever. I love you, Lily." Lily said, "I love you too, dad." They were both happy. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play together every day. They liked to share their toys and their snacks. One day, they found a big box of chocolate in the kitchen. They were very happy. + +"Can we have some chocolate?" Lily asked Ben. + +"Yes, let's have some chocolate!" Ben agreed. + +They opened the box and saw many different kinds of chocolate. There were chocolate bars, chocolate balls, chocolate coins, and chocolate eggs. They looked very yummy. + +"Which one do you want?" Ben asked Lily. + +"I want a chocolate egg," Lily said. "They are my favorite." + +"Me too," Ben said. "They are my favorite too." + +They each took a chocolate egg and unwrapped it. Inside, they found a surprise. There was a small toy in each egg. Lily got a pink bunny and Ben got a blue car. + +"Wow, look at this!" Lily said. "A bunny! I love bunnies!" + +"Wow, look at this!" Ben said. "A car! I love cars!" + +They showed each other their toys and smiled. They were very happy. + +"Can I see your bunny?" Ben asked Lily. + +"Sure, you can see my bunny," Lily said. "Can I see your car?" + +"Sure, you can see my car," Ben said. + +They traded their toys and looked at them. They were very nice. + +"Can I keep your bunny?" Ben asked Lily. + +"Can I keep your car?" Lily asked Ben. + +They thought for a moment. They liked their own toys, but they also liked their friend's toys. They wanted to make each other happy. + +"Okay, you can keep my bunny," Lily said. "It belongs to you now." + +"Okay, you can keep my car," Ben said. "It belongs to you now." + +They hugged each other and thanked each other.

He picks up the beetle and shows it to Mia. + +"Can I hold it?" Mia asks. She reaches out her hand. + +"Be careful, it might bite!" Tom says. He puts the beetle in Mia's hand. + +The beetle does not bite. It walks on Mia's fingers and tickles her. She giggles and smiles. + +"Do you know what kind of beetle this is?" Tom asks. + +Mia shakes her head. She does not know. + +"Me neither," Tom says. "But it is very pretty. Maybe we can keep it as a pet." + +"Okay," Mia says. "But we have to find a good home for it. And some food. What do beetles eat?" + +Tom thinks for a moment. He does not know. + +"Maybe we can ask Mom," he says. "She knows a lot of things." + +"Okay," Mia says. "Let's go ask Mom." + +They run to the house with the red beetle in Mia's hand. They hope Mom will let them keep it. They think the red beetle is very special. +Ben was hungry. He wanted to eat toast with jam. He asked his mom to make toast for him. Mom said yes and put bread in the toaster. + +Ben waited and waited. He heard a snap. The toast was ready. Mom took it out and put it on a plate. But the toast was black. It was burned. Ben did not like black toast. + +"Mom, I don't want black toast. It is bad. It is yucky. I want good toast," Ben said. + +"I'm sorry, Ben. The toaster was too hot. It made the toast black. Do you want another toast?" Mom said. + +"Yes, please. But not black. I want brown toast. And jam. And milk," Ben said. + +"OK, Ben. I will make you another toast. But you have to be patient. And you have to say thank you," Mom said. + +"OK, Mom. I will be patient. And I will say thank you.

That is for your dad. He will be home soon. You can have a banana instead." + +Sara was sad. She did not like bananas. She liked apples. She looked at the apple. It looked so yummy. She thought, "Maybe I can have a little bite. Mom will not know. Dad will not mind." She reached for the apple. + +"Stop, Sara!" said a voice. It was her brother Tom. He was watching her. "That is a bad idea. You will be in trouble. Mom will be angry. Dad will be sad. You will regret it." + +Sara did not listen. She was not careful. She grabbed the apple and took a big bite. It was sweet and juicy. She smiled. But then she felt something hard and sharp in her mouth. She spit it out. It was a worm. A worm was in the apple. Sara screamed. + +Mom and Tom came running. They saw Sara with the apple and the worm. Mom was angry. She said, "Sara, what did you do? That was not your apple. That was for your dad. He picked it from the tree. He was very careful. He did not see the worm. But you did not care. You were greedy. You were naughty. You should be sorry." + +Sara was sorry. She was very sorry. She regretted eating the apple. She regretted hurting her dad. She regretted making her mom angry. She regretted seeing the worm. She cried. She said, "I'm sorry, Mom. I'm sorry, Tom. I'm sorry, Dad. I was bad. I will not do it again. Please forgive me." + +Mom hugged Sara. She said, "I forgive you, Sara. But you have to learn to listen and to share. And you have to be careful with what you eat. You never know what might be inside. Next time, ask before you take. And eat what I give you. Bananas are good for you. They have no worms." + +Sara nodded. She said, "OK, Mom. I will do that. I will be good. I will be careful. I will eat bananas. But can I have an apple tomorrow?" + +Mom smiled. She said, "Yes, Sara. You can have an apple tomorrow. But only if you are good. And only if you check for worms." +Ben and Sam are brothers. They like to play in the garden. One day, they see a big dog in the garden. The dog is black and brown. He has a long tail and big ears. + +"Wow, look at the dog!" Ben says. "He is so big and furry!" + +"Can we pet him?" Sam asks. "He looks nice." + +Ben and Sam walk slowly to the dog. They kneel down and hold out their hands. The dog sniffs their hands and licks them. He wags his tail and makes a happy sound. + +"Hello, dog!" Ben says. "What is your name?" + +The dog barks. He looks at Ben and Sam with his brown eyes. + +"Maybe he is hungry," Sam says. "Let's give him some food." + +Ben and Sam run to the kitchen. They find a steak in the fridge. They take it out and bring it to the dog. + +"Here, dog, have some steak!" Ben says. "It is yummy!" + +The dog sees the steak and jumps up. He grabs the steak with his mouth and runs away. + +"Hey, come back!" Sam says. "That was our steak!" + +Ben and Sam chase the dog. They run across the garden and into the street. They see a man with a leash. The man is the dog's owner. + +"Sorry, boys, that is my dog," the man says. "His name is Rex. He is very friendly, but he loves steak. He must have smelled it in your fridge." + +Ben and Sam stop running. They look at the dog and the man. + +"Can we play with Rex?" Ben asks. "He is fun." + +"Sure, you can play with him," the man says. "But only if you ask your mom or dad first. And no more steak, okay?" + +Ben and Sam nod. They go back to their house and ask their mom. Their mom says yes. They go back to the dog and the man. + +"Hi, Rex!" Ben says. "We are sorry we gave you our steak. We did not know it was your favorite." + +"It's okay, boys," the man says.

They are your friends." + +Tom's big brother feels bad. He says, "I'm sorry. I was rude. You can play with my toys. I will play with you too." + +Tom and Lily are happy. They say, "Thank you.

Lily and Tom fall to the ground with the plate. + +"Ouch!" they say. + +They look at the plate. It is not a treasure. It is a sign. It says: "This is a historic tree. Please do not damage it. It is part of our modern heritage." + +Lily and Tom feel bad. They did not mean to hurt the tree. They did not know what the sign meant. They are sorry. + +"Mom, we are sorry!" they say. + +Mom comes to them. She sees the plate and the tree. She is not happy. She is angry. + +"What did you do?" she asks. "You tore off the sign from the tree. You damaged the tree. You did not listen to me. You were not careful. You were naughty." + +Lily and Tom feel worse. They cry. They hug Mom and say: "We are sorry, Mom. We did not know. We were curious. We wanted to have fun. We love you, Mom." + +Mom hugs them back. She is still angry, but she loves them too. She says: "I love you too, but you have to be more respectful. The tree is old and important. The sign is there to protect it. You have to learn to read and understand.

We are sorry, park people. We will fix the sign and the tree. We will be more respectful. We will learn to read and understand." + +Mom smiles. She says: "That's good. Now, let's go and find the park people and tell them what happened. Maybe they can help us fix the sign and the tree. And maybe they can tell us more about the tree and why it is modern and historic." + +Lily and Tom agree. They hold Mom's hand and walk to the park office.

She forgot about the salt and the boy. She decided to fly with the dolphin every day. She was a gifted girl. She could fly with her wings. +Lily woke up in the morning and felt very happy. She saw the sun shining through her window and heard the birds singing. She jumped out of her bed and put on her dress. It was a bit tight, but she liked it because it had flowers on it. + +She ran to the kitchen and saw her mom making pancakes. She smelled the sweet syrup and the butter. She hugged her mom and said, "Good morning, Mom! I love you!" + +"Good morning, Lily! I love you too!" her mom said. "Are you ready for a fun day?" + +"Yes, Mom! Can we go to the park?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, we can go to the park after breakfast. But first, you have to eat your pancakes and drink your milk," her mom said. + +Lily ate her pancakes and drank her milk. She was very full and happy. She brushed her teeth and put on her shoes. She grabbed her ball and her teddy bear. She was ready to go to the park. + +She and her mom walked to the park. It was not far, but Lily was very excited. She saw the swings, the slide, the sandbox, and the flowers. She saw other kids playing and laughing. She wanted to join them. + +She ran to the swings and asked a boy if she could swing with him. He said yes and they became friends. They swung high and low, back and forth. They felt the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They giggled and shouted. + +Lily saw a big tree with a branch that looked like a horse. She wanted to ride it. She asked her mom if she could. Her mom said yes, but to be careful. Lily climbed the tree and sat on the branch. She pretended it was a horse and she was a cowboy. She said, "Yee-haw!" + +She saw a squirrel on another branch. It looked at her and made a funny noise. Lily said, "Hello, squirrel! Do you want to play with me?" The squirrel ran away and Lily laughed. + +She saw a butterfly on a flower. It was yellow and blue and very pretty. She wanted to catch it. She jumped off the branch and ran after it. She tried to grab it with her hands, but it was too fast. She tried to follow it with her eyes, but it was too small. She sprang from one flower to another, but it always flew away. She said, "Come back, butterfly! I just want to be your friend!" + +She chased the butterfly until she was tired. She sat on the grass and drank some water. She looked around and saw her mom smiling at her. She smiled back and said, "Mom, I had so much fun today!" + +"I'm glad you did, Lily. You are such a brave and curious girl. I'm proud of you," her mom said. + +They hugged and kissed. They packed their things and walked back home. Lily told her mom all about her adventures. She said, "Thank you, Mom, for taking me to the park. I love you!" + +"I love you too, Lily. You're welcome. You made my day," her mom said. + +They got home and had a bath. They put on their pajamas and read a story. They cuddled and said good night. They closed their eyes and dreamed of the next morning. +Tim and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to look for bugs and frogs in the grass and the pond. They had a bucket to keep their finds. + +"Look, I found a big frog!" Tim said, holding up a green and brown frog. "He is very serious. He does not smile or jump." + +"Let me see!" Lily said, reaching for the frog. "He is cute. Can I hold him?" + +Tim gave Lily the frog. She petted him gently. The frog croaked. Lily laughed. + +"Can you throw him in the pond?" Tim asked. "Maybe he will be happier there." + +"OK," Lily said. She threw the frog in the air. The frog flew over the pond and landed on a lily pad. He looked around and saw another frog. He croaked again. + +"Wow, he has a friend!" Tim said. "Maybe he will smile now." + +Lily and Tim smiled too. They were happy for the frog. They went to look for more bugs and frogs. They had fun in the park. +Lily was a busy bee. She liked to fly from flower to flower and collect nectar. She also liked to make friends with other bees and animals. One day, she saw a big, red flower that looked very pretty. She wanted to go inside and see what it smelled like. + +She flew closer and closer to the flower. She saw that it had a hole in the middle. She thought that she could fit in the hole and explore the flower. She tried to fly in, but she was too big. She bumped her head and fell to the ground. + +"Ouch!" she said. "That hurt!" + +She heard a voice from the flower. It was a ladybug. She said, "Hello, little bee. Are you okay?" + +Lily looked up and saw the ladybug. She was smaller than Lily and had black spots on her red wings. She smiled and said, "Yes, I'm okay. Thank you for asking. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bother you. I just wanted to see your flower. It's very pretty." + +The ladybug said, "That's okay. I don't mind. You can look at my flower, but you can't fit in the hole. It's too small for you. It's just right for me. I live here. It's cozy and warm and smells nice." + +Lily said, "Wow, you're lucky. You have a nice home. Can I be your friend?" + +The ladybug said, "Sure, you can be my friend. I like to make friends, too. What's your name?" + +Lily said, "My name is Lily. What's yours?" + +The ladybug said, "My name is Ruby. Nice to meet you, Lily." + +Lily and Ruby became friends. They talked and laughed and shared stories. They also visited other flowers and animals. They had a lot of fun. Lily learned that she didn't need to fit in every hole. She just needed to fit in with her friends. +Sara liked to ride her toy lion. She named him Leo and he was her best friend. She would sit on his back and pretend they were in the jungle, having adventures. She felt very independent when she rode Leo. She did not need anyone to help her or tell her what to do. + +One day, Sara and Leo went to the park. They saw other children playing with their toys. Some had dolls, some had cars, some had balls. Sara wanted to play with them, but she did not want to leave Leo behind. She thought he might feel lonely or sad. + +She asked Leo, "Do you want to play with the other toys, too?" Leo nodded his head. He liked to make new friends. Sara smiled and said, "OK, let's go. But you have to stay close to me. I don't want to lose you." + +Sara and Leo walked to the other children. They said hello and asked if they could join. The other children were curious and friendly. They liked Leo and wanted to touch him and ride him. Sara was proud of her toy lion. She let them take turns, but she always watched him carefully. She did not want him to get hurt or dirty. + +Sara and Leo had a lot of fun at the park. They played with the other toys and children. They learned new games and words. They laughed and shared. But they also stayed together. They were independent, but they also needed each other. They were happy. +Lila liked to dive in the pool. She was a good swimmer and she felt independent in the water. She could go fast and deep and make bubbles with her mouth. She liked to play with her friends and race them to the other side. + +One day, there was a big storm. The sky was dark and loud. Lila saw flashes of lightning and heard thunder. She was scared and wanted to go inside. But her friends said, "Don't be a baby. It's just a little rain. Let's dive some more." + +Lila didn't want to be a baby, but she also didn't want to be in the pool when there was lightning. She knew it was dangerous. She said, "No, thank you. I'm going inside. You should too. Lightning can hurt you if you are in the water." + +Her friends laughed and called her a chicken. They said, "You are not independent. You are afraid of everything. We are not afraid. We are brave. Watch us dive." + +Lila shook her head and ran to the house. She told her mom what happened. Her mom hugged her and said, "You are very smart and independent, Lila. You made the right choice. Lightning is not something to play with. It can hurt you very badly. Your friends are not brave. They are foolish. I hope they are okay." + +Lila felt better and watched the storm from the window. She hoped her friends were okay too. She decided she would rather dive in the pool when the sky was blue and sunny. She thought that was more fun and safe. +Lisa loves to sing. She sings when she wakes up, when she plays, and when she eats. She knows many songs, and she likes to make up new ones. She is very intelligent, and she learns new words every day. + +One day, Lisa is singing in the garden. She sees a bird on a branch. The bird is yellow and black, and it has a beautiful voice. Lisa sings to the bird, and the bird sings back. They have a fun conversation. + +"Hello, bird. You are very pretty. What is your name?" Lisa sings. + +"Hello, Lisa. You are very smart. My name is Sunny. I like to fly and sing." The bird sings. + +"I like to fly and sing, too. But I can only fly on a swing. Do you want to be my friend?" Lisa sings. + +"Yes, I want to be your friend. You are very kind. Do you have a snack? I am hungry." The bird sings. + +Lisa remembers that she has some bread in her pocket. She breaks a piece and gives it to Sunny. Sunny pecks it happily. Lisa eats the rest of the bread. They share a snack and a smile. + +"Thank you, Lisa. You are very generous. I have to go now. But I will come back tomorrow. Will you sing with me again?" Sunny sings. + +"Of course, Sunny. You are very welcome. I will wait for you here. Have a good day. Goodbye, friend." Lisa sings. + +Sunny flies away, waving his wing. Lisa waves back, humming a tune. She is very happy. She has a new friend who loves to sing. +Lila and Sam went to the park with Mom. It was very cold and white. Mom said it was snow. Lila and Sam liked to play in the snow. They made a big ball and a small ball. They put the small ball on top of the big ball. They gave the ball a face with a carrot and two rocks. They said it was a snowman. + +"Look, Mom, we made a snowman!" Lila and Sam said. They were proud of their snowman. Mom smiled and took a picture. + +"Your snowman is very nice," Mom said. "But do you see that shiny thing over there? That is ice. Ice is very slippery and hard. You have to be careful not to step on it or you might fall." + +Lila and Sam gazed at the ice. It looked like glass. They wanted to touch it and see how it felt. They ran towards the ice. + +"Wait, Lila, Sam, stop!" Mom shouted. "It's not safe to go on the ice!" + +But Lila and Sam did not hear Mom. They were too excited. They reached the ice and put their feet on it. They felt the ice slide under them. They lost their balance and fell down. They bumped their heads and cried. + +Mom ran to them and helped them up. She hugged them and checked if they were hurt. She said they were lucky they did not break anything. She said they had to listen to her and not go on the ice again. + +Lila and Sam said they were sorry. They said they did not know the ice was so slippery and hard. They said they would not do it again. They said they wanted to go back to their snowman. + +Mom said it was okay. She said they learned their lesson. She said they could go back to their snowman, but they had to stay away from the ice. She said she loved them. + +Lila and Sam said they loved Mom too. They went back to their snowman and gave him a hug. They said he was their friend. They played in the snow until it was time to go home. They had fun, but they also remembered to be careful. +Anna and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the snow. They made a big hill and a tunnel for their cars to go over and under. They had a lot of fun, but they also felt very cold. Their fingers and noses were icy. + +"Let's go inside and get some hot cocoa," Anna said. + +"OK, but first I want to replace my car with yours," Ben said. He liked Anna's car better. It was red and shiny and had a spike on the front. + +"No, you can't do that. It's my car. You have your own car. It's blue and has a star on the side," Anna said. + +"But I want your car. It's cooler. It can poke things with the spike," Ben said. He tried to grab Anna's car, but she held it tight. + +"Stop it, Ben. You're being mean. You can't just take my car. You have to ask nicely and trade," Anna said. + +"But I don't want to trade. I want both cars," Ben said. He pulled harder, and Anna pulled harder too. They both fell on the snow and started to cry. + +Their mom heard them and came outside. She saw them lying on the snow with their cars in their hands. + +"What's going on here?" she asked. + +"Ben tried to replace my car with his. He wanted my car with the spike. He didn't ask nicely. He was mean," Anna said. + +"Is that true, Ben?" mom asked. + +Ben nodded. He felt sorry. He knew he was wrong. + +"I'm sorry, Anna. I was mean. I shouldn't have tried to replace your car with mine. Can we trade instead?" he asked. + +Anna looked at him. She saw that he was sorry. She decided to forgive him. + +"OK, Ben. We can trade. But only for today. Tomorrow we have to switch back," she said. + +"OK, Anna. Thank you. You're a good sister," he said. + +They hugged and traded their cars. They felt warmer and happier. + +"Let's go inside and get some hot cocoa," mom said. + +"OK, mom. We love you," Anna and Ben said. + +They went inside and enjoyed their hot cocoa. They learned to share and be nice. They had a good day. +Lily was a small fairy who lived in a flower. She liked to fly and play with her friends, but she had a problem. She was too light to weigh anything. When she tried to sit on a leaf, she would float away. When she tried to hold a berry, she would drop it. She wished she could weigh more. + +One day, she met a big frog who was sitting on a rock. He looked sad and bored. + +"Hello, frog. Why are you sad?" Lily asked. + +"Hello, fairy. I am sad because I am too heavy to jump. When I try to jump, I sink in the mud. I wish I could weigh less," the frog said. + +Lily had an idea. She remembered that she had a magic wand that her mother gave her. She had never used it before, but maybe it could help. + +"Maybe I can help you, frog. I have a magic wand that can change things. Maybe it can change how much we weigh. Do you want to try?" Lily said. + +The frog nodded. He was curious and hopeful. + +"Okay, then. Hold still and close your eyes. I will wave my wand and say a magic word," Lily said. + +She waved her wand and said, "Fluffy!" + +The frog felt a strange tingling in his body. He opened his eyes and saw that he was smaller and lighter. He felt a breeze lift him up. He was flying! + +"Wow! I can fly! This is amazing! Thank you, fairy!" the frog said. + +Lily smiled. She was happy for the frog. But then she felt a strange heaviness in her body. She looked down and saw that she was bigger and heavier. She felt a thud as she landed on the rock. She couldn't fly! + +"Oh no! I can't fly! This is terrible! What have I done?" Lily said. + +The frog saw that Lily was sad. He felt sorry for her. He had an idea. + +"Don't worry, fairy. I can help you. I have a magic word that can change things back. Maybe it can change how much we weigh. Do you want to try?" the frog said. + +Lily nodded. She was scared and hopeful. + +"Okay, then. Hold still and close your eyes. I will say the magic word and blow on you," the frog said. + +He said, "Puffy!" + +Lily felt a strange tingling in her body. She opened her eyes and saw that she was small and light again. She felt a lift in her wings. She was flying! + +"Yay! I can fly! This is wonderful! Thank you, frog!" Lily said. + +The frog smiled. He was happy for Lily. But then he felt a strange heaviness in his body. He looked down and saw that he was big and heavy again. He felt a splash as he sank in the water. He couldn't fly! + +"Oh well. I can't fly. But I can swim and hop. That's not so bad. You're welcome, fairy!" the frog said. + +Lily and the frog hugged and said goodbye. They had learned a lesson. They were happy with how much they weighed. They were happy with who they were. +Anna likes to sing. She sings when she wakes up, when she eats, when she plays and when she goes to bed. She sings loud and happy songs that make her feel good. + +One day, Anna wants to sing a new song. She hears it on the TV and she likes it a lot. She tries to remember the words and the tune. She puts on her favorite shirt, the one with the flowers and the butterflies, and she goes to the living room. + +She sees her brother Tom on the couch. He is watching the TV and he has the remote. Anna says, "Tom, can I sing the song on the TV? I like it a lot. Please, let me sing it." + +Tom says, "No, Anna. I am watching my show. It is very cool and fun. You can't sing now. You are too loud and you bother me. Go away." + +Anna feels angry. She wants to sing the song. She thinks Tom is mean and rude. She says, "Tom, you are not nice. You are selfish and bossy. I want to sing the song. It is my turn to use the TV. Give me the remote." + +Tom says, "No, Anna. It is not your turn. It is my turn. I had it first. You can't have the remote. Go away." + +Anna and Tom start to fight. They pull and push and shout. They make a lot of noise. They forget about the TV and the song. They only care about the remote. + +Mom hears the noise. She comes to the living room. She sees Anna and Tom fighting. She sees the TV on and the song playing. She sees Anna's shirt with the flowers and the butterflies. She feels sad and angry. + +She says, "Anna, Tom, stop fighting. You are making a mess. You are wasting time. You are hurting each other. You are not listening to the song. You are not enjoying the TV. You are not sharing the remote. You are not being kind and respectful. You are not acting like good siblings. You are in trouble." + +Anna and Tom stop fighting. They look at Mom. They feel sorry and ashamed. They say, "Sorry, Mom. We were wrong. We were silly. We were not nice. We are sorry." + +Mom says, "I am glad you are sorry. But you need to do better. You need to apologize to each other. You need to take turns with the TV. You need to let each other sing. You need to be quiet and polite. You need to be loving and helpful. You need to be good siblings. Do you understand?" + +Anna and Tom say, "Yes, Mom. We understand. We are sorry. We will do better. We will be good siblings." + +Mom says, "Good. I hope so. Now, hug each other and say sorry. Then, you can watch the TV together and sing the song together. But not too loud, please. And be careful with your shirt, Anna. It is very pretty and I don't want you to ruin it." + +Anna and Tom hug each other and say sorry. They feel better. They watch the TV together and sing the song together. They sing softly and happily. They share the remote. They are good siblings. Mom smiles and joins them. She sings the song with them. They have fun. They are a happy family. +Lila and Ben were playing in the park with their toy cars. They liked to make them zoom and crash on the grass. Sometimes they pretended they were racing or chasing bad guys. + +One day, a big dog came running to the park. It saw the toy cars and thought they were fun. It barked and jumped and tried to catch them. Lila and Ben were scared. They ran away and left their toy cars behind. + +The dog grabbed one car in its mouth and shook it hard. It broke into pieces and scattered on the ground. The dog dropped it and went for another car. It did the same thing. It broke all the toy cars and scattered them everywhere. + +Lila and Ben hid behind a bench and watched. They felt helpless. They wanted their toy cars back. They loved their toy cars. They had many dreams of playing with them. + +"Go away, dog!" Ben shouted. "Leave our toy cars alone!" + +But the dog did not listen. It kept breaking and scattering the toy cars. It did not care about Lila and Ben. + +Then, a man came to the park. He saw the dog and the toy cars. He saw Lila and Ben. He was the dog's owner. He called the dog and put a leash on it.

They invite their mom and dad to watch. Tom and Sue take turns to make Lily sign and say funny things. Mom and dad clap and laugh. + +But then, a mean boy comes to their yard. His name is Max. He sees Lily and says, "What a silly doll! She can't sign. She can only make noises. She is weak and ugly. I have a better doll. His name is Robo. He can walk and talk and do tricks. He is strong and cool. He is the best doll ever." + +Tom and Sue feel sad and angry. They love Lily and they don't like Max. They say, "No, you are wrong. Lily can sign. She is smart and pretty. She is the best doll ever. You are mean and rude. Go away." + +Max says, "No, I am right. Lily is bad. Robo is good. Let's have a contest. We will make our dolls sign and talk. Mom and dad will be the judges. The winner gets both dolls. The loser gets nothing." + +Tom and Sue are scared. They don't want to lose Lily. But they don't want to let Max win. They say, "OK, we will have a contest. But you have to be fair. No cheating." + +Max says, "Fine. Let's start. Robo, show them what you can do." + +Max pushes a button on Robo's back. Robo starts to walk and talk. He says, "Hello, I am Robo. I can sign and talk and do tricks. Watch me." He signs "hello" and "robot" and "cool". He does a flip and a spin.

The loser is Robo. He can sign and talk and do tricks, but he is mean and rude. Tom and Sue, you get to keep both dolls. Max, you get nothing." + +Tom and Sue cheer and hug Lily. They say, "Thank you, mom and dad. You are the best judges ever. We love you and we love Lily." + +Max cries and stomps his feet. He says, "No, no, no. This is not fair. Robo is better than Lily. You are bad judges. You are mean and rude. I hate you and I hate Lily." + +Mom and dad say, "Max, you are being a bad sport. You need to learn to be nice and fair. You need to say sorry to Tom and Sue and Lily. Maybe then, they will let you play with them and their dolls." + +Max says, "No, I don't want to say sorry.

They want to look at it, but they are afraid to scare it. They walk slowly and quietly towards the bird. + +"Hello, bird," Sara says softly. "You are very pretty. Where do you come from?" + +The bird looks at Sara and Tom with its bright eyes. It makes a loud sound like a whistle. It flaps its wings and flies away. + +"Wow, that was amazing," Tom says. "I have never seen a bird like that before. Do you think it will come back?" + +"I don't know," Sara says. "Maybe it was lost. Maybe it was looking for its family.

She hugged him and cried. + +"Mommy, can I go with Snowy?" she asked. + +"No, honey, you have to stay here with your uncle. He came to visit us and he will play with you. He is very compassionate and he loves you," Mommy said. + +Lily did not want to play. She wanted Snowy. She looked at her uncle. He had a big smile and a beard. He was holding a box. + +"Hello, Lily. I'm your uncle Tom. I have a surprise for you. Do you want to see what's inside the box?" he said. + +Lily shook her head. She did not care about the box. She cared about Snowy. + +"Please, Lily, give me a chance. I know you miss Snowy, but he will be back soon. He is in good hands. The vet will make him better.

She nodded. + +"Okay, uncle Tom. What is it?" she said. + +He opened the box and took out a fluffy white toy. It looked like a cat. It had blue eyes and a pink nose. It had a collar with a bell. + +"It's a toy cat. It's very soft and cuddly. It's your new friend. You can name it whatever you want. You can play with it and hug it and talk to it. It will keep you company while Snowy is away. Do you like it?" he said. + +Lily gasped. She reached out and touched the toy cat. It felt warm and cozy. It meowed when she squeezed it. It was so cute. She smiled. + +"I love it, uncle Tom. Thank you. It's the best gift ever. Can I call it Snowy too?" she said. + +"Of course you can, Lily. You're very welcome. I'm glad you like it.

She still missed Snowy, but she had a new friend. And she had a compassionate uncle who cared for her. She was happy. +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. Today, they see a big pile of leaves. They run to the pile and jump in. The leaves are dry and make a loud sound. + +"Number one, number two, number three!" Lily counts as she jumps. "This is fun!" + +Tom laughs and joins her. "Number four, number five, number six!" he counts. "I like the leaves!" + +They jump and count until they reach number ten. Then they lie down on the leaves and look at the sky. They see a bird flying by. The bird has a scarf around its neck. The scarf is red and blue and yellow. + +"Look, look!" Lily points at the bird. "The bird has a scarf! Why does the bird have a scarf?" + +Tom shrugs. "I don't know. Maybe the bird is cold. Maybe the bird likes scarves. Maybe the bird is a gift from someone." + +Lily nods. "Maybe. The scarf is pretty. I wish I had a scarf like that." + +Tom smiles. "Maybe I can make you a scarf. I have some yarn and a needle at home. I can try to make a scarf like the bird's." + +Lily hugs Tom. "You are a good friend, Tom. Thank you. I will make you something too. I have some paper and crayons at home. I can draw you a picture of the bird and the scarf." + +They get up and hold hands. They leave the pile of leaves and walk to their homes. They are happy.

She chases Ben and tries to get the hat back. She shouts and cries. She tells Ben to stop and give her the hat. But Ben does not stop. He runs out of the house and into the yard. + +He runs and runs until he reaches the end of the yard. There is a fence and a big road. Ben sees many cars and trucks and buses on the road. They are loud and fast and scary. Ben is afraid. He wants to go back to the house. He wants to give Lily the hat. He feels guilty. + +He turns around and sees Lily. She is still running after him. She is still angry and sad. She is also afraid. She does not want Ben to go on the road. She does not want Ben to get hurt. + +"Ben, come back!" Lily says. "Please, give me the hat! I'm sorry I yelled at you. I love you, Ben!" + +Ben hears Lily. He loves Lily too. He is sorry he took the hat. He takes the hat off his head and throws it to Lily. He runs back to the house. He hugs Lily and says sorry. + +Lily hugs Ben and says sorry too. She puts the hat on Ben's head and smiles. She says he can wear the hat for a little while. They go back to the box and find another hat for Lily. They play dress up and have fun. They are happy. +Sara and Ben like to play in the garden. They see many flowers and bugs. They see a big yellow flower with white petals. Sara says, "This is a daisy. It is open. It is happy to see the sun." + +Ben says, "Can I pick it?" He reaches for the flower. Sara says, "No, Ben. The daisy is not for us. It is for the bees and the butterflies. They need the flower for food. If you pick it, it will die." + +Ben says, "Oh, I don't want to hurt the daisy. I want to see the bees and the butterflies." He looks around. He sees a small black and yellow bug on a leaf. He says, "Look, Sara. A bee!" + +Sara says, "Yes, Ben. A bee. Be careful. The bee can sting you. It is not a toy. It is a worker. It makes honey from the flowers. It helps the plants grow." + +Ben says, "Wow, the bee is amazing. I want to make honey too." He starts to buzz like a bee. He flies around the garden. He pretends to visit the flowers. Sara laughs. She joins him. They have fun. They are happy. They are like bees. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the garden. There are many flowers and trees and bugs in the garden. Lily and Ben like to look at them and learn their names. + +One day, they see a big bush with small purple fruits. They are blueberries. Lily and Ben love blueberries. They are sweet and juicy and good for you. They want to pick some and eat them. + +They run to the bush and try to reach the blueberries. But the bush is too high and the blueberries are too far. Lily and Ben are sad. They cannot get the blueberries. + +Then they hear a voice. It is a friendly voice. It says, "Hello, little ones. Do you want some blueberries?" + +They look up and see a big bird. It is a crow. It has black feathers and a shiny beak. It is sitting on a branch near the blueberries. + +"Yes, please!" Lily and Ben say. "We love blueberries. But we cannot reach them." + +The crow smiles. It says, "Don't worry. I can help you. I can fly and reach the blueberries. I can share them with you. Do you want to be my friends?" + +Lily and Ben nod. They say, "Yes, please! We want to be your friends. You are very kind and friendly." + +The crow flaps its wings and picks some blueberries with its beak. It drops them on the ground for Lily and Ben. They say, "Thank you, crow. You are very nice and generous." + +They eat the blueberries together. They are delicious. They talk and laugh and have fun. They become good friends. They are happy. +Sara likes music. She likes to sing and dance and play with her toy piano. She has a big book of songs that her mom gave her. She wants to learn how to play the songs on her piano. + +But some songs are hard. They have many notes and sounds that Sara does not know. She tries to play them, but they do not sound right. She feels sad and frustrated. She wants to play the songs well. + +She asks her mom for help. Her mom is good at music. She plays the guitar and the flute. She knows how to read the notes and the sounds. She sits with Sara and looks at the book of songs. + +"Mom, can you help me play this song?" Sara asks. She points to a song that has many notes and sounds. + +"Sure, Sara. I can help you. But you have to be patient and practice. This song is hard. It takes time and work to learn how to play it. Do you want to try?" her mom says. + +"Yes, mom. I want to try. I want to play this song well. I want to make music." Sara says. + +"Okay, Sara. Let's start. First, we have to look at the notes and the sounds. They tell us what keys to press on the piano. See, this note is a C. It means you have to press this key. And this note is a D. It means you have to press this key. And so on. Can you repeat after me?" her mom says. + +Sara nods. She listens to her mom and tries to copy her. She presses the keys on the piano. She makes the notes and the sounds. She follows her mom's voice and fingers. She plays the song slowly and carefully. She makes some mistakes, but she does not give up. She tries again and again. + +She is solving the song. She is learning how to play it. She is making music. She feels happy and proud. She smiles at her mom. + +"Mom, I did it! I played the song! It was hard, but I solved it! Thank you for helping me!" Sara says. + +"You're welcome, Sara. You did a great job! I'm very proud of you! You are a good musician. You love music. And music loves you." her mom says. + +They hug and kiss. They play the song together. They sing and dance and have fun. They love music. And they love each other. +Lila loved to swim in the pool. She liked to splash and kick and pretend she was a fish. She wore a pink swimsuit with a picture of a dolphin on it. + +One day, she saw a big tray near the pool. It had many cups and plates and spoons on it. Lila wondered what it was for. She asked her mom, who was sitting on a chair with a book. + +"Mom, what is that tray for?" Lila said. + +"That tray is for the party, Lila. We have some guests coming over soon. They will have some snacks and drinks on the tray. Please don't touch it, okay?" Mom said. + +"Okay, Mom. Can I swim some more?" Lila said. + +"Yes, you can swim some more. But be careful and stay close to me. And don't splash too much, or you will wet the tray." Mom said. + +Lila nodded and jumped back into the pool. She swam around and had fun. She saw a bird flying in the sky. It was white and had long wings. It looked graceful and beautiful. + +"Mom, look at the bird!" Lila said. + +Mom looked up and smiled. "That's a swan, Lila. It's a very special kind of bird. It can swim and fly. It's very graceful and elegant." Mom said. + +"Wow, I want to be like a swan!" Lila said. + +She tried to swim like a swan. She stretched her arms and legs and moved them slowly and smoothly. She felt graceful and happy. She smiled at Mom and said, "Look, Mom, I'm a swan!" + +Mom clapped and cheered. "You are a swan, Lila! You are a very graceful and lovely swan!" Mom said. + +Lila felt proud and happy. She swam like a swan until the guests arrived. Then she got out of the pool and dried herself with a towel. She put on a dress and went to greet the guests. She saw the tray with the snacks and drinks. She remembered not to touch it. She said hello to the guests and shared her story about the swan. They all listened and smiled. They said she was a very smart and sweet girl. Lila felt happy and proud. She loved to swim and she loved to be a swan. +Lila and Sam went to the beach with Mom and Dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. They saw many things, like shells, fish, and birds. + +One day, they found a big crab on the shore. It was red and had two claws and many legs. Lila and Sam were curious and wanted to touch it. + +"Be careful," Mom said. "The crab might pinch you." + +Lila and Sam did not listen. They went closer to the crab and reached out their hands. The crab saw them and snapped its claws. Lila and Sam jumped back and screamed. + +"Ouch!" Lila said. "The crab is mean!" + +Sam was angry. He wanted to kick the crab away. He lifted his foot and swung it at the crab. But the crab was fast and moved to the side. Sam missed the crab and kicked the sand instead. The sand flew into his eyes and mouth. Sam coughed and cried. + +"Yuck!" Sam said. "The sand is bad!" + +Mom and Dad ran to Lila and Sam. They hugged them and cleaned their faces. They told them to leave the crab alone and play somewhere else. + +"Sorry, Mom and Dad," Lila and Sam said. "We won't bother the crab again." + +They learned their lesson and had fun with other things. The crab was happy too and went back to the water. +Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big mountain far away. They wanted to go there and see what was on top. + +"Let's go to the mountain!" Lily said. + +"OK, but we have to be careful. The mountain is very high and steep." Tom said. + +They asked their moms if they could go, and their moms said yes, but only if they stayed together and came back before dark. They packed some snacks and water and started to walk. + +The mountain was very far, and they had to cross a bridge, a field, and a forest. They saw many animals and plants on the way, and they stopped to look at them. They also sang songs and told jokes to each other. + +They finally reached the foot of the mountain, and they looked up. The mountain was very big and rocky, and it had snow on top. They felt excited and scared at the same time. + +"Wow, the mountain is so beautiful!" Lily said. + +"Yes, but it is also very hard to climb. We have to be brave and strong." Tom said. + +They started to climb the mountain, holding hands and helping each other. They had to avoid sharp stones, slippery ice, and bad plants that stung. They also had to watch out for bad animals that growled and snarled. They climbed and climbed, and they got very tired and thirsty. + +They almost gave up, but they remembered their moms and their friends who were waiting for them. They also remembered their dream of seeing what was on top of the mountain. They encouraged each other and kept going. + +They finally reached the top of the mountain, and they saw a wonderful sight. They saw the sun setting over the horizon, and the sky turning pink and purple. They saw the clouds below them, and the stars above them. They saw the whole world, and they felt happy and proud. + +They hugged each other and shouted, "We did it! We did it!" + +They heard a loud noise, and they turned around. They saw their moms and their friends, who had followed them secretly. They were smiling and clapping their hands. + +They ran to them and hugged them. Their moms and their friends applauded them and said, "You are amazing! You are brave! You are the best!" + +Lily and Tom felt very loved and very happy. They thanked their moms and their friends, and they shared their snacks and water with them. They all sat on top of the mountain and watched the stars together. + +They had the best day ever. +Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a doll and Ben had a car. They were having fun making noises and pretending to go on adventures. + +Suddenly, Ben's car made a loud snap and stopped moving. Ben looked at his car and saw that one of the wheels had broken off. He felt sad and angry. He threw his car on the floor and started to cry. + +Lily heard Ben's cry and came to see what was wrong. She saw his broken car and his tears. She felt sorry for him and wanted to help. She picked up his car and the wheel and said, "Don't cry, Ben. I can fix your car. I have glue and tape in my room. Come with me." + +Ben wiped his eyes and followed Lily to her room. Lily found her glue and tape and put some glue on the wheel. She pressed it back to the car and wrapped some tape around it. She waited for a few seconds and then gave the car back to Ben. + +"Here you go, Ben. Your car is fixed. Now it can move again. See?" She pushed the car on the floor and it rolled smoothly. Ben smiled and hugged Lily. He said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister. You fixed my car. Now it is normal again. Can we play together?" + +Lily nodded and said, "Yes, we can play together. I like your car. Can I play with it too?" + +Ben said, "Of course you can. You can play with my car and I can play with your doll. We can share our toys. They are more fun that way." + +Lily and Ben went back to the living room and played with their toys. They were happy and forgot about the broken wheel. They had fun making noises and pretending to go on adventures. +Anna likes to brush her hair. She has a pink brush with a flower on it. She brushes her hair every morning and every night. She thinks her hair is very pretty. + +One day, Anna goes to play with her friend Ben. Ben has short hair and no brush. He sees Anna's brush and wants to play with it. He takes it from Anna's hand and runs away. + +"Hey, give it back!" Anna shouts. She runs after Ben and tries to get her brush. Ben laughs and runs faster. He thinks it is a fun game. + +Anna is angry and sad. She does not like Ben's game. She catches up with Ben and slaps his arm. "Ow!" Ben cries. He drops the brush and rubs his arm. He looks at Anna with big eyes. + +"I'm sorry, Anna," he says. "I just wanted to play. I didn't mean to make you mad." + +Anna picks up her brush and hugs it. She feels sorry for Ben. She knows he is not a bad friend. She says, "It's okay, Ben. But don't take my things without asking. That is not nice." + +Ben nods and says, "I'm sorry, Anna. Can we still be friends?" + +Anna smiles and says, "Yes, we can. Do you want to play something else?" + +Ben smiles and says, "Yes, please. What do you want to play?" + +Anna thinks for a moment and says, "How about we play with your cars? I like cars." + +Ben says, "Okay, that sounds fun. Come on, let's go." + +They go to Ben's room and play with his cars. They share and take turns. They have a lot of fun. They are happy. +Sara and Tom were having breakfast. They liked cereal with milk and fruit. Sara had a red bowl and Tom had a blue one. They poured cereal from the big box. + +"Look, Sara," Tom said. "There is something unusual in my cereal. It is shiny and round." + +Sara looked at Tom's bowl. She saw the shiny thing. It was a coin. + +"Wow, Tom. You are lucky. You found a coin in your cereal. Maybe it is a magic coin. Where did it come from?" Sara asked. + +Tom shrugged. He did not know. He did not mention the coin to Mom or Dad. He thought they might take it away. He wanted to keep it. + +He picked up the coin and put it in his pocket. He finished his cereal and milk. He smiled at Sara. + +"Maybe we can buy something with the coin later. Like candy or a toy. Do you want to share it with me?" Tom asked. + +Sara nodded. She liked candy and toys. She also liked Tom. He was her brother and her friend. + +They finished their breakfast and put their bowls in the sink. They did not mention the coin to anyone. They went to play with their toys and waited for the magic to happen. +Lila and Ben were playing with their toys in the garden. They had a big castle made of blocks and a lot of dolls and cars. They pretended they were the king and queen of the castle and the toys were their guards and friends. + +But then, a big dog came into the garden. It was not their dog, it was a dog from the street. It saw the castle and the toys and it wanted to play with them too. It ran towards them and barked loudly. + +"Go away, dog!" Lila shouted. "This is our castle, you can't play with it!" + +But the dog did not listen. It jumped on the castle and knocked it down. It destroyed the blocks and the dolls and the cars. It made a big mess. + +Lila and Ben were very sad and angry. They cried and yelled at the dog. They tried to chase it away, but it was too big and fast. They needed help. + +They saw their clever cat, Milo, sitting on the fence. He was watching the dog and the children. He did not like the dog either. He wanted to protect his friends. + +He jumped from the fence and landed on the dog's back. He scratched and bit the dog's ears and tail. He made the dog yelp and run away. + +Lila and Ben cheered and hugged Milo. He was their hero. He was their guard. + +They thanked him and gave him some milk and tuna. They cleaned up the mess and built a new castle. They invited Milo to play with them. He was their king and they were his queen and prince. They were happy. +Tom and Lily were playing near the river. They liked to throw stones and watch them splash. They saw a bridge that crossed the river. It was big and old and had many holes. + +"Let's go to the bridge!" Tom said. He ran towards it. + +"No, Tom, it's not safe!" Lily said. She was scared of the bridge. It looked weak and dangerous. "Mom said we should not go there!" + +But Tom did not listen. He wanted to see what was on the other side of the bridge. He thought it was a secret place. He climbed on the bridge and walked on the planks. + +Lily followed him. She did not want to be alone. She tried to resist her fear. She held Tom's hand and said, "Please, Tom, let's go back. The bridge might break. I don't like it here." + +Tom looked at Lily. He saw that she was crying. He felt sorry for her. He said, "OK, Lily, we'll go back. I'm sorry I made you scared. The bridge is not fun. It's old and dirty and distant. There's nothing on the other side. Let's go back to the river and play with the stones." + +They turned around and walked back to the river. They hugged each other and said, "We're sorry, Mom. We won't go to the bridge again. We love you." +Lily and Ben love to play in the sand. They make castles and mountains and tunnels. One day, they see a big whale in the water. The whale is gray and has a big tail. It jumps and splashes and makes loud noises. + +"Wow, look at the whale!" Lily says. "It is so big and fun!" + +"Can we go and say hello to the whale?" Ben asks. "Maybe it wants to play with us." + +Lily thinks for a moment. She likes the whale, but she is a little scared. The water is deep and cold and the whale is very big. She does not know if the whale is friendly or not. + +"I don't know, Ben," she says. "The whale might be nice, but it might also be mean. And we are very small. Maybe we should stay here and watch from the sand." + +Ben nods. He understands. He is also a little scared. But he is also curious. He wants to see the whale up close. He wants to touch its skin and hear its voice. He decides to be brave. + +"I want to go, Lily," he says. "I want to meet the whale. Maybe it will be my friend. You can stay here if you want, but I will go." + +Lily is surprised. She does not want Ben to go alone. She does not want him to get hurt. She decides to be honest. + +"Ben, I am scared," she says. "I don't want you to go alone. What if the whale is mean? What if you get lost? What if you can't breathe? Please stay with me." + +Ben looks at Lily. He sees that she is scared. He also sees that she is honest. She is not lying or teasing. She is telling the truth. He decides to be kind. + +"Okay, Lily," he says. "I will stay with you. We can watch the whale from here. Maybe it will come closer and say hello. Maybe it will be our friend. But we will be safe and together." + +Lily smiles. She is happy. She hugs Ben and says thank you. They sit on the sand and watch the whale. The whale sees them and comes closer. It makes a friendly noise and winks at them. They laugh and clap. They are happy and together. They are friends. +Tom and Mia like to play in the garden. They have a hose that can make water come out. They also have a zip on their jackets. The zip can make their jackets open and close. + +One day, they decide to have fun with the hose and the zip. Tom says, "I have an idea. Let's zip our jackets all the way up and then spray each other with the hose. It will be like a game." + +Mia thinks that sounds fun. She says, "OK, let's do it. But we have to be careful not to get wet inside our jackets. That would be cold and yucky." + +They zip their jackets all the way up and take turns holding the hose. They spray each other with the water and laugh. They run and jump and dodge the water. They have a lot of fun. + +But then, something happens. Tom's zip gets stuck. He can't open his jacket. He feels wet and hot inside. He says, "Help, help! My zip is stuck. I can't get out of my jacket. It's too wet and hot." + +Mia tries to help him. She pulls and tugs on his zip. But it doesn't move. She says, "Oh no, Tom. Your zip is really stuck. What can we do?" + +They don't know what to do. They feel scared and sad. They call for their mom. Their mom hears them and comes to the garden. She sees them with the hose and the zip. She says, "What are you doing? Why are you playing with the hose and the zip? That's not a good idea. You could get hurt or sick." + +She helps Tom get out of his jacket. She sees that he is wet and sweaty. She says, "You need to dry off and change your clothes. You don't want to catch a cold." + +She takes them inside the house. She gives them towels and dry clothes. She says, "Next time, don't play with the hose and the zip. That's not a safe or smart game. You can play with other things that are more fun and less dangerous." + +Tom and Mia say, "We're sorry, mom. We won't do it again. We thought it would be incredible, but it was not. It was bad and scary." + +They hug their mom and say, "We love you, mom. Thank you for helping us." + +Their mom says, "I love you too, Tom and Mia. You're my incredible kids. But please, be careful and listen to me." +Sara and Tom were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a man sitting on a bench. He looked troubled. He had a big bag with him, but he did not open it. + +"Who is he?" Sara asked Tom. + +"I don't know. Maybe he is lost or sad," Tom said. + +They wanted to help him, but they did not know how. They thought of some ideas. + +"Maybe we can give him a flower," Sara said. + +"Maybe we can share our snacks with him," Tom said. + +"Maybe we can talk to him and make him smile," Sara said. + +They decided to try all their ideas. They picked a yellow flower from the grass and walked to the bench. They smiled at the man and said hello. + +"Hello, kids. What are you doing here?" the man asked. + +"We are playing in the park. We saw you on the bench. You look troubled. Do you need help?" Sara said. + +The man was surprised by their kindness. He said, "Thank you, but I'm fine. I'm just waiting for someone." + +"Who are you waiting for?" Tom asked. + +"I'm waiting for my son. He is coming to visit me. I have a gift for him in my bag. It's a book. He likes to read," the man said. + +He opened his bag and showed them the book. It had a picture of a dragon on the cover. + +"Wow, that looks like a fun book. I like dragons too," Tom said. + +"Me too. They are big and strong and can fly," Sara said. + +The man smiled. He said, "You are very smart and curious kids. You remind me of my son when he was your age. He also liked dragons and books. He still does. He is a teacher now. He teaches other kids how to read and write." + +"That's cool. We also like to learn new things. We go to school and our teacher is very nice. She teaches us how to count and spell and draw," Sara said. + +The man nodded. He said, "That's good. Learning is important. It helps you grow and discover the world. You should always keep learning and reading. That's what I recommend." + +"Recommend? What does that mean?" Tom asked. + +"It means to give advice or suggest something. It means to tell someone what you think is good or right for them," the man explained. + +"Oh, I see. Thank you for recommending that. We will keep learning and reading. And we will also recommend that to our friends," Tom said. + +The man laughed. He said, "You are very welcome. And thank you for your flower and your snacks and your talk. You made me feel less troubled. You are very kind and friendly." + +Just then, they saw another man walking towards them. He looked like the man on the bench, but younger. He had a big smile on his face. + +"Dad, I'm here. I'm sorry I'm late. I had some trouble with the bus," he said. + +He hugged the man on the bench and said hello to Sara and Tom. + +"Hello, kids. Who are you?" he asked. + +"We are Sara and Tom. We are friends who play in the park. We met your dad on the bench. He was waiting for you. He has a gift for you. It's a book. It has a dragon on it," Sara said. + +The son looked at the book and smiled. He said, "Wow, thank you, Dad. I love this book. It's one of my favorites. How did you know?" + +The dad winked at Sara and Tom and said, "I have my ways. I know you very well. You are my son and I love you." + +They hugged again and thanked Sara and Tom for their company. They said goodbye and left the park. + +Sara and Tom waved at them and felt happy. They had helped a troubled man and made a new friend. They had learned a new word and shared their ideas. They had done a good deed and had fun. + +They decided to play some more in the park and then go home and tell their parents about their adventure. They also decided to read a book about dragons before bedtime. They thought it would be a good way to end the day. They recommended it to each other. +Sara loved to play in the garden. She liked to look at the flowers and the bugs. One day, she saw a lovely caterpillar on a leaf. It was green and yellow and had many legs. + +"Hello, caterpillar," Sara said. "You are so pretty. Can I be your friend?" + +The caterpillar did not answer. It was busy eating the leaf. Sara reached out her hand and gently touched the caterpillar. It felt soft and ticklish. + +"I want to take you home with me," Sara said. "You can live in my room and play with my toys." + +She picked up the caterpillar and put it in her pocket. She ran back to the house, happy and excited. + +But the caterpillar was not happy. It did not want to leave the garden. It wanted to stay on the leaf and eat and grow. It did not like the dark and the tight pocket. It wanted to be free. + +"Let me go, let me go," the caterpillar said. But Sara did not hear it. She did not know that she had stolen the caterpillar from its home. + +When Sara got to her room, she took out the caterpillar and put it on her bed. She showed it her dolls and her books and her crayons. + +"Look, caterpillar, these are my things. You can share them with me. We can have fun together," Sara said. + +But the caterpillar did not care about Sara's things. It did not want to have fun with her. It wanted to go back to the garden. It wanted to be on the leaf and eat and grow. It wanted to be free. + +"Let me go, let me go," the caterpillar said again. But Sara did not listen. She did not understand that she had stolen the caterpillar from its home. +Lily liked to polish her shoes. She used a soft cloth and some shiny stuff from a tin. She made her shoes look very clean and bright. She was proud of her shoes. + +One day, she saw a big jar of sugar on the kitchen table. It looked like snow. She wanted to touch it and play with it. She thought it would make her shoes even more shiny. She climbed on a chair and reached for the jar. + +"Stop, Lily!" her mom said. "That is not for your shoes. That is for making cookies. Sugar is sweet, not shiny. It will make your shoes sticky and dirty." + +Lily was confused. She did not know why sugar was not good for her shoes. She wanted to try it anyway. She grabbed the jar and poured some sugar on her shoes. + +"Oh, no, Lily!" her mom said. "Look what you did. You wasted the sugar and ruined your shoes. Now we have to clean them and buy more sugar. That was not a normal thing to do. That was a naughty thing to do." + +Lily felt sorry. She did not mean to be naughty. She just wanted to polish her shoes. She said sorry to her mom and helped her clean the mess. She learned that sugar was not for polishing, but for baking. She also learned that some things are normal and some things are not. She decided to only polish her shoes with the shiny stuff from the tin. She hoped her mom would still make cookies with the sugar. She liked cookies. They were sweet and yummy. +Tom and Lily were twins. They liked to play with their toys and books. They had a big room with many things to do. But one day, their mom came home with a baby. She said it was their new brother, Max. + +Tom and Lily did not like Max. He was small and loud. He cried all the time. He took their mom's attention. He seemed very annoying. They wanted their mom to take him back. + +One night, when Max was sleeping, Tom and Lily sneaked into his crib. They wanted to scare him. They made faces and noises. They pulled his blanket and his pacifier. They hoped he would cry and mom would be angry. + +But Max did not cry. He opened his eyes and smiled. He reached out his tiny hands and touched their faces. He made a happy sound. He seemed very friendly. He wanted to play with them. + +Tom and Lily felt strange. They did not want to scare him anymore. They felt sorry for being mean. They smiled back at him. They gave him his blanket and his pacifier. They said sorry. + +"Hi, Max. We are Tom and Lily. We are your brother and sister. We will be nice to you. We will play with you. We love you." + +Max giggled and hugged them. He seemed very happy. Tom and Lily felt happy too. They decided to give Max a chance. They thought he was not so bad after all. They went back to their beds and slept well. + +The next day, they told their mom they liked Max. Mom was glad. She hugged them and said they were good twins. She said Max loved them too. She said they were a family. + +Tom and Lily felt proud. They had a new brother. They had a bigger family. They seemed very lucky. +Sam liked to play with junk. He found old cans, boxes, and wires in the trash and made them into robots, cars, and rockets. He did not care what other kids said. He thought his junk was fun and cool. + +One day, he saw a big pile of junk near his house. He ran to it and started to look for new things to play with. He saw a shiny metal ball with a button on it. He picked it up and pressed the button. + +"Hello, I am Zeebo, your new friend," a voice said from the ball. Sam was surprised and happy. He had never heard a junk talk before. + +"Hi, I am Sam. Do you want to play with me?" he asked. + +"Yes, I do. I can do many things. I can sing, dance, and tell jokes. I can also pray with you," Zeebo said. + +"Pray? What is that?" Sam asked. + +"Pray is when you talk to God and thank him for everything. He made you and me and all the junk. He loves us and wants us to be happy," Zeebo said. + +"Wow, that sounds nice. I want to pray with you. How do we do it?" Sam asked. + +"First, we close our eyes and fold our hands. Then, we say what we are grateful for and what we need. Then, we say amen. Do you want to try?" Zeebo asked. + +"OK, let's try," Sam said. He closed his eyes and folded his hands. He copied what Zeebo said. + +"Dear God, thank you for making me and Zeebo and all the junk. Thank you for giving me a new friend. Please help me to be kind and brave and smart. Please help other kids to like junk too. Amen," Sam prayed. + +"Amen," Zeebo prayed. + +They opened their eyes and smiled at each other. They felt happy and peaceful. They decided to play with the junk and share their stories. They did not know that other kids were watching them. They did not know that soon they would become very popular. They only knew that they had found a special gift in the junk. They had found a friend and a way to pray. +Sara and Ben like to play with metal toys. They have cars, trains, planes and robots. They make noises and move them around the floor. Sometimes they pretend they are in a show and perform for their mom and dad. + +One day, Sara and Ben find a new metal toy in the closet. It is a big drum with a stick. They wonder what it does. They take it out and try to hit it with the stick. It makes a loud sound. Bang! Bang! Bang! + +"Wow, this is fun!" Sara says. "Let's perform with the drum!" + +"OK, but I want to use the stick too!" Ben says. + +They take turns hitting the drum. They make up a song and sing along. They are very loud and happy. + +Mom and dad hear the noise and come to see what is going on. They see Sara and Ben playing with the drum. They smile and clap their hands. + +"That was a fine performance!" mom says. "You are very good with the drum!" + +"Thank you, mom!" Sara and Ben say. "Do you want to play with us?" + +"Sure, why not?" dad says. "But let's move the drum to the basement. It is too loud for the closet." + +They all go to the basement and play with the drum and the other metal toys. They have a lot of fun and make more songs. They are a happy family. +Sam liked to joke with his dad, who was a mechanic. He would pretend to fix the cars with his toy tools and make funny noises. His dad would laugh and say, "You are a great mechanic, Sam. You can help me anytime." + +One day, Sam went to the garage with his dad. His dad was very busy. He had many cars to fix. He told Sam to wait in the office and play with his toys. Sam nodded and said, "OK, dad. I will be good." + +But Sam was bored. He wanted to joke with his dad. He saw a big red button on the wall. He wondered what it did. He decided to press it and see. He thought it would make a funny sound or a light. + +But it did not. It made a loud alarm. It scared Sam and his dad and all the other mechanics. They ran to the office and saw Sam holding the button. His dad was angry. He said, "Sam, what did you do? That button is for emergencies. You could have caused a lot of trouble." + +Sam felt bad. He did not mean to cause trouble. He wanted to joke with his dad. He said, "I'm sorry, dad. I was just curious. I wanted to make you laugh." + +His dad sighed and hugged him. He said, "I know, Sam. But you have to be careful. Joking is fun, but not when it is dangerous. You have to listen to me and follow the rules. OK?" + +Sam nodded and said, "OK, dad. I will listen to you and follow the rules. I love you, dad." + +His dad smiled and said, "I love you too, Sam. You are still a great mechanic. But next time, let's joke with something else. OK?" + +Sam agreed and said, "OK, dad. Let's joke with something else." +Sam was a curious boy who liked to explore. One day, he found a big pile of ash in the backyard. He wondered what it was and how it got there. He picked up some ash and rubbed it on his fingers. It was soft and gray and made his fingers dirty. + +"Sam, what are you doing?" his mom asked. She saw him playing with the ash and was not happy. She knew that the ash was from the fire that dad had made last night. He had burned some old wood and paper to make room in the garage. + +"I'm playing with the ash, mom. It's fun!" Sam said. He did not know that the ash was not a good toy. He thought it was like sand or dirt. + +"Sam, the ash is not a good toy. It can make you cough and sneeze and hurt your eyes. It can also make a mess in the house. Come here and let me clean you up." his mom said. She took a wet cloth and wiped his face and hands. She also brushed his hair and clothes. + +"Sorry, mom. I did not know that the ash was bad. I was just curious." Sam said. He felt a little sad that he had to stop playing with the ash. He liked to discover new things. + +"It's okay, Sam. I know you are curious. But you have to be careful and ask me before you touch something that you don't know. There are many other things that you can play with and learn from. How about we go to the library and find some books about fire and ash? Maybe you can succeed in finding out more about them." his mom said. She smiled and hugged him. + +"Okay, mom. That sounds fun. I like books. Maybe I can find a book about dragons. They make fire and ash too, right?" Sam said. He brightened up and ran to get his coat and shoes. He was ready for a new adventure. +Tom and Lily wanted to build something fun. They had many blocks and toys in their room. They looked around and saw a big book with pictures of animals. + +"Let's build a fish!" Tom said. He liked fish. They were shiny and colorful and swam in the water. + +"OK!" Lily said. She liked fish too. They were pretty and friendly and made bubbles. + +They took some blue blocks and made a long body. They added some yellow blocks for fins and a tail. They found two round buttons for eyes and a red sticker for a mouth. They put their fish on the floor and admired it. + +"It looks like a real fish!" Tom said. He was happy. + +"It does!" Lily said. She was happy too. + +They decided to make their fish a home. They used some green blocks for plants and some brown blocks for rocks. They made a cave with a blanket and a chair. They put their fish inside the cave and pretended it was swimming. + +"Hello, fish!" Tom said. He waved at the fish. + +"Hello, fish!" Lily said. She blew a kiss at the fish. + +The fish smiled and blinked. It was a thoughtful fish. It liked Tom and Lily. They were kind and creative. They made it a nice home. It was glad to have them as friends. +Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and find things in the dirt. Sometimes they found worms, sometimes they found stones, and sometimes they found seeds. + +One day, they found a big seed that looked like a ball. They wondered what it was. They decided to plant it and see what would grow. + +They dug a hole and put the seed in. They covered it with dirt and watered it. They waited and waited. + +After a few days, a green shoot came out of the dirt. It grew bigger and bigger. It had long leaves and a round top. + +"What is it?" Tom asked. + +"I don't know," Lily said. "Maybe it's a flower." + +They touched it and smelled it. It was not a flower. It was an onion! + +They pulled it out of the dirt. It was very big and heavy. + +"Wow, look at this!" Tom said. + +"Let's take it to Mom," Lily said. + +They carried the onion to the house. Mom was in the kitchen. She saw them and smiled. + +"What do you have there?" she asked. + +"It's an onion!" Tom said. "We grew it in the garden!" + +"That's amazing!" Mom said. "You are very good gardeners!" + +She took the onion and cut it. She put some in a pan and some in a bowl. + +She gave Tom and Lily some onion rings to wear on their fingers. They laughed and put them on. + +They looked like funny rings. They smelled like onion. + +"Can we eat them?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, you can," Mom said. "But be careful, they might make you cry." + +Tom and Lily bit the onion rings. They tasted sweet and spicy. They liked them. + +But then they felt something in their eyes. They started to water. They felt weak and sad. + +They cried and cried. + +"Why are we crying?" Tom asked. + +"Because onions make you cry," Mom said. "They have a strong juice that hurts your eyes." + +She hugged them and wiped their tears. + +"Don't worry, it will go away soon," she said. "You are not really sad. You are just crying because of the onion." + +She gave them some water and some cookies. They drank and ate. They felt better. + +They smiled and stopped crying. + +They thanked Mom for the onion rings. They said they liked them, but they did not want to wear them anymore. + +They went back to the garden. They looked for more seeds to plant. + +They hoped they would find something that would not make them cry. +Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play on the farm. They see many animals on the farm. They see cows, pigs, chickens, and sheep. + +One day, they want to play with the sheep. They run to the field where the sheep are. They see a big sheep with a lot of wool. They think he is strong and soft. + +"Can we sit on the sheep?" Tom asks Mia. + +"I don't know. Maybe he will not like it," Mia says. + +They go closer to the sheep. The sheep looks at them. He does not run away. He does not make a sound. + +"Hello, sheep. You are very strong and soft. Can we sit on you?" Tom says. + +The sheep nods his head. He lets Tom and Mia sit on his back. He walks slowly around the field. Tom and Mia are happy. They hug the sheep and say thank you. + +The sheep is happy too. He likes to have friends. He wags his tail and says baa. +Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play outside in summer. They had a big yard with grass and flowers and a swing. Sometimes they saw a bunny who came to eat the carrots in their garden. They wanted to pet the bunny, but he was very shy and ran away when they came near. + +One day, they had a plan. They made a big pile of carrots and hid behind the swing. They waited and waited until they saw the bunny hop out of the bushes. He sniffed the air and saw the carrots. He hopped closer and closer, nibbling on the carrots. Lily and Tom were very quiet and still. + +When the bunny was very close, they jumped out and tried to catch him. But the bunny was faster and hopped away. He hopped over the fence and into the street. Lily and Tom ran after him, but they could not catch him. They saw a big truck coming and they were scared. They shouted, "Bunny, watch out!" + +The truck stopped and the driver got out. He saw the bunny and picked him up. He was very kind and gentle. He said, "Is this your bunny? He's very cute, but he's filthy. He needs a bath and a home. Do you want to keep him?" + +Lily and Tom nodded and smiled. They thanked the driver and took the bunny. They brought him inside and gave him a bath and a cage. They named him Hoppy and fed him more carrots. They played with him every day and he became their best friend. They were very happy and so was Hoppy. +Tom was a boy who liked to play with his toys. He had a lot of cars, balls, and blocks. But he did not have any animals. He wanted a pet to cuddle and feed. + +One day, he saw a big box with a bow on it. It was his birthday, and his mom and dad said it was a gift for him. He was very happy and excited. He opened the box and looked inside. + +"Surprise!" his mom and dad said. "You have a new friend!" + +But Tom did not see a friend. He saw a rat. A big, gray, hairy rat. It had long teeth and a long tail. It looked at Tom with small, black eyes. Tom did not like the rat. He was scared and sad. + +"Mom, dad, what is this?" he asked. "I don't want a rat. I want a dog or a cat or a fish. Rats are bad and dirty and scary." + +His mom and dad looked at each other. They did not know what to say. They did not know the rat was in the box. They thought they bought a toy bear for Tom. They did not know who put the rat in the box. It was an unknown rat. + +"Tom, we are sorry," his mom said. "We did not know the rat was in the box. We will take it back to the store and get you a real toy. Or maybe a real pet. What do you want?" + +Tom thought for a moment. He looked at the rat again. It was still in the box. It did not look so bad and scary anymore. It looked lonely and sad. Maybe it wanted a friend too. + +"Mom, dad, can I keep the rat?" he asked. "Maybe it is a nice rat. Maybe it can be my pet. I can cuddle and feed it. I can give it a name. How about Bob?" + +His mom and dad smiled. They were surprised, but they were glad that Tom was happy. They hugged him and said yes. They said he could keep the rat, but he had to take good care of it. + +Tom was very happy. He took the rat out of the box and held it in his arms. It felt warm and soft. It squeaked and licked his face. It seemed to like him too. + +"Hi, Bob," Tom said. "You are my new friend. I am glad I received you." +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they find a big box in the garage. They think it is a car. + +"Let's travel in the car!" Anna says. + +"OK, where do we go?" Ben asks. + +Anna thinks for a moment. She remembers a book she read with her mom. It had pictures of a place with hills and grapes and sun. + +"Let's go to France!" she says. + +"France? What is France?" Ben asks. + +Anna shrugs. She does not know much about France. But she knows they make wine there. Wine is a drink for grown-ups. It is red and sweet. + +"France is a place where they make wine. Wine is red and yummy. Maybe we can have some," she says. + +Ben nods. He likes red and yummy things. He also likes to try new things. + +"OK, let's go to France!" he says. + +They get in the box and pretend to drive. They make noises like a car. They say bonjour and merci and other words they heard in the book. They have fun. + +After a while, they get hungry. They look around the garage. They see a bottle of wine on a shelf. It is red and shiny. + +"Look, wine!" Anna says. + +"Let's have some!" Ben says. + +They get out of the box and climb on a chair. They reach for the bottle. But it is too high. They stretch and push and pull. But they cannot get it. + +They hear a voice behind them. + +"What are you doing?" It is Anna's mom. She looks angry. + +Anna and Ben turn around. They feel scared. + +"We are sorry, mom. We wanted to travel to France and have some wine," Anna says. + +Anna's mom sighs. She takes the bottle and puts it back on the shelf. She takes Anna and Ben by the hand. + +"Wine is not for kids. It is not yummy. It is not good for you. It can make you sick. You should not touch it," she says. + +Anna and Ben nod. They feel sorry. They did not know. + +"Can we still play in the box?" Anna asks. + +Anna's mom smiles. She hugs them. + +"Of course you can. But only in the garage. And only with water and juice. And only if you promise to never touch the wine again," she says. + +Anna and Ben promise. They hug her back. + +They go back to the box. They pretend to drive to France. But they do not want wine anymore. They want water and juice. And cookies. And each other. They are happy. +Lily and Sam were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. But then Lily fell down and hurt her knee. It was red and bleeding. She cried and cried. + +Sam ran to her and said, "Don't cry, Lily. I have a band-aid for you. It will make your knee better." + +Lily looked at the band-aid. It had a picture of a unicorn on it. She liked unicorns. But she was still scared. + +"Will it hurt?" she asked. + +"No, it won't hurt. It will just stick to your knee and cover the ouchie. Then you can play again," Sam said. + +Lily nodded. She decided to accept the band-aid. She let Sam put it on her knee. It felt soft and cool. + +"Thank you, Sam. You are a good friend," she said. + +"You're welcome, Lily. You are a good friend too. Do you want to play some more?" Sam asked. + +Lily smiled. She felt better. Her knee was still sore, but not as much. She wanted to play some more. + +"Yes, let's play some more. But let's be careful. I don't want to hurt my knee again," she said. + +"OK, let's be careful. But let's also have fun. Come on, let's go to the swings. They are my favorite," Sam said. + +Lily and Sam ran to the swings. They had fun. They forgot about Lily's knee. They were regular kids. They were happy. +Tom and Lily liked to play with their toys in the dark. They had a flashlight that could glow in different colors. They pretended they were at the opera, and sang songs with funny voices. + +One night, they heard a noise outside their window. They turned off the flashlight and looked out. They saw a big cat with a bell around its neck. It was trying to catch a mouse. + +"Look, a cat!" Tom said. + +"Let's scare it away!" Lily said. + +They turned on the flashlight and shone it at the cat. The cat saw the light and got scared. It ran away, but the bell made a loud sound. + +"Ha ha, we did it!" Tom and Lily said. + +But then they heard another sound. It was their mom, who had heard the bell and the noise. + +"Tom, Lily, what are you doing?" she asked. + +She came into their room and saw the flashlight and the toys. + +"You are being foolish, kids. It is time to sleep, not to play. And you should not bother the cat, it is not nice. Now, put away your toys and go to bed." + +Tom and Lily felt sorry. They said sorry to their mom and the cat. They put away their toys and went to bed. They did not play with the flashlight in the dark anymore. They learned to be quiet and kind. +Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big melon on a table. It was green and round and shiny. + +"Wow, look at that melon!" Lily said. "It looks yummy!" + +"Can we have some?" Tom asked. He was hungry. + +They walked to the table. A nice lady was there. She smiled at them. + +"Hello, children. Do you like melon?" she asked. + +"Yes, we do!" Lily and Tom said. + +"Would you like a slice?" the lady offered. + +"Yes, please!" Lily and Tom said. + +The lady cut the melon with a knife. She gave them each a big slice. It was juicy and sweet. + +"Thank you, lady!" Lily and Tom said. + +"You're welcome, children. You are very cute and polite." the lady said. + +Lily and Tom ate their melon. They were happy. They clapped their hands. + +"Yay, melon!" they cheered. + +The lady laughed. She clapped her hands too. + +"Yay, melon!" she joined. +Anna and Ben went to the mall with Mom. They liked to see the big shops and the shiny things. Mom said they could buy one thing each, but not too expensive. + +Anna saw a doll with long hair and a pink dress. She wanted the doll very much. She asked Mom, "Can I have the doll, please?" + +Mom looked at the price tag. She shook her head. "No, Anna, the doll is too expensive. You can choose something else." + +Ben saw a car with lights and sounds. He wanted the car very much. He asked Mom, "Can I have the car, please?" + +Mom looked at the price tag. She shook her head. "No, Ben, the car is too expensive. You can choose something else." + +Anna and Ben were sad. They did not like the other things in the shop. They wanted the doll and the car. + +Mom saw a book with animals and a ball with colors. She said, "Look, Anna and Ben, these are nice things. They are not expensive. You can have the book and the ball." + +Anna and Ben looked at the book and the ball. They liked them a little. They said, "OK, Mom, we can have the book and the ball." + +Mom smiled. She bought the book and the ball. She said, "Good, Anna and Ben, you are smart and kind. You can play with the book and the ball at home." + +Anna and Ben smiled. They hugged Mom. They said, "Thank you, Mom, we love you." They went home with the book and the ball. They were happy. +Lily and Ben were playing in the sand. They had a spade and a bucket. They wanted to make a big castle with towers and a moat. + +"Look, Lily, I made a tower!" Ben said, holding up his spade with some sand on it. + +"Wow, Ben, that's great!" Lily said. "Can you help me make the moat?" + +"OK, Lily, let's do it!" Ben said. They dug a hole around their castle with their spade. They filled it with water from their bucket. + +They were having fun. They were adventurous. They liked to make new things. + +But then they heard their mom calling them. + +"Lily, Ben, it's time to go home!" Mom said. "Come on, pack up your things!" + +Lily and Ben looked at their castle. They were sad. They did not want to leave it. + +"Can we finish it tomorrow, Mom?" Lily asked. + +"Sorry, sweetie, we can't," Mom said. "We have to go to Grandma's house tomorrow. But you can take a picture of it with my phone. And you can make another castle at Grandma's. She has a sandbox too." + +Lily and Ben smiled. They liked Grandma. They liked her sandbox. + +They took a picture of their castle with Mom's phone. They packed up their spade and bucket. They said goodbye to their castle. + +They held Mom's hand and walked to the car. + +They were happy. They had a good day. They were looking forward to tomorrow. +Lily was a little girl who liked to read books. She had many books in her room, but her favorite one was about a princess and a dragon. She liked to read it every night before she went to sleep. + +One night, she wanted to read her book, but her lamp was broken. She tried to turn it on, but nothing happened. She was sad and angry. She did not understand why her lamp did not work. She asked her mom to fix it, but her mom said she could not. + +"I'm sorry, Lily, but your lamp is very old and it needs a new bulb. We don't have any bulbs right now. We have to buy one tomorrow. Can you read your book with the light from the hallway?" her mom said. + +Lily did not like that. She wanted to read her book with her lamp. She thought her mom was ignorant. She did not know what a bulb was. She thought it was a silly word. She said to her mom, "No, I don't want to read with the hallway light. It is too bright and it hurts my eyes. I want to read with my lamp. You are ignorant. You don't know how to fix my lamp. You are a bad mom." + +Her mom was shocked and hurt by Lily's words. She did not expect her to be so rude and ungrateful. She said to Lily, "Lily, that is not a nice thing to say. I am not ignorant. I know what a bulb is. It is a part of the lamp that makes the light. But we don't have any bulbs right now. We have to wait until tomorrow. You have to be patient and understanding. And you have to apologize to me. You are a good girl, but you are being very naughty right now." + +Lily felt ashamed and sorry. She realized she was wrong and mean. She did not want to hurt her mom's feelings. She said to her mom, "I'm sorry, mom. I was angry and I said bad things. I don't think you are ignorant. I don't think you are a bad mom. You are a good mom. I love you. Can you forgive me?" + +Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said to Lily, "Of course, I forgive you, Lily. I love you too. I know you are a good girl. You just made a mistake. We all make mistakes sometimes. But we have to learn from them and say sorry. And we have to be kind and respectful to each other. Do you understand?" + +Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom, I understand. Thank you for teaching me. Can we read my book together with the hallway light?" + +Her mom said, "Yes, we can. Let's go to your bed and read your book. Maybe tomorrow we can find a new bulb for your lamp. And maybe we can learn more about how lamps work. Would you like that?" + +Lily said, "Yes, mom, I would like that. You are the best mom ever." + +They went to Lily's bed and read her book. They had a good time and they learned a lot. They were happy and they loved each other. +Lily was a little girl who liked to visit her elderly grandma every week. Grandma lived in a small house with a big garden. Lily loved to help grandma water the flowers and pick some for a vase. + +One day, Lily saw a new flower in the garden. It was white and had six petals. "What is this, grandma?" Lily asked. + +"That is a lily, my dear. Just like you. It is a very special flower. It needs a lot of care and love to grow and bloom." Grandma said. + +"Can I care for it, grandma? Can I water it and talk to it and give it a hug?" Lily asked. + +"Of course, you can, Lily. But be gentle and careful. Lilies are very delicate and fragile. They can break easily if you pull or squeeze them too hard." Grandma warned. + +Lily nodded and smiled. She took the watering can and sprinkled some water on the lily. Then she leaned over and whispered to it. "Hello, lily. I am Lily. You are very pretty and I like you very much. I will care for you and be your friend. Don't be sad or lonely. I am here for you." She gave the lily a soft kiss and a gentle hug. + +The lily seemed to smile back at her. It opened its petals wider and released a sweet fragrance. Lily felt happy and proud. She ran to grandma and hugged her too. "Thank you, grandma, for giving me a lily. I will take good care of it. I love you and I love my lily." She said. + +Grandma hugged her back and kissed her cheek. "You are very welcome, Lily. I love you too. And I am sure your lily loves you as well. You are a very kind and caring girl. You make me and the lily very happy." She said. +Tom and Lily are playing with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. They like to build towers and houses and cars with the blocks. + +Lily picks up a large square block. It is red and shiny. She wants to put it on top of her tower. But the block is dirty. It has dust and crumbs on it. Lily does not like dirty things. + +She looks for something to wipe the block. She sees a cloth on the table. It is white and soft. She thinks it is perfect for wiping. She takes the cloth and rubs the block with it. + +Tom sees what Lily is doing. He is angry. He says, "Hey, that is my cloth! I use it for my nose. It is not for wiping blocks. Give it back to me!" + +Lily is surprised. She does not know that the cloth is for Tom's nose. She says, "Sorry, Tom. I did not know. I just wanted to clean my block. It was very dirty. Here, you can have your cloth back." + +Tom takes the cloth from Lily. He is still angry. He says, "You should not take things that are not yours. You should ask first. And you should not wipe blocks with my cloth. It is gross. You made it dirty too." + +Lily feels bad. She says, "I am sorry, Tom. I did not mean to make you mad. I did not mean to make your cloth dirty. I will not do it again. Can we still be friends?" + +Tom looks at Lily. He sees that she is sorry. He is not angry anymore. He says, "OK, Lily. I forgive you. We can still be friends. But next time, use a different cloth for wiping blocks. Or better yet, use a paper towel. They are for wiping things. And you can throw them away when you are done." + +Lily nods. She says, "OK, Tom. I will do that. Thank you for forgiving me. And thank you for sharing your blocks with me. They are very fun to play with." + +Tom smiles. He says, "You are welcome, Lily. And thank you for playing with me. You are a good friend." + +They hug and make up. Then they go back to playing with the blocks. They have a lot of fun. They are happy. +Lily and Sam were playing soccer in the park. They wanted to win the red trophy that their coach had. The trophy was shiny and big and had a star on top. Lily and Sam liked the trophy very much. + +They played hard and scored many goals. They ran and kicked and cheered. They were happy and proud. But then, the other team scored a goal too. It was a tie. Lily and Sam looked at the clock. There was only one minute left. + +"Come on, Lily, we can do it!" Sam said. "We can win the trophy!" + +"Yes, Sam, we can!" Lily said. "Let's go!" + +They ran to the ball and tried to get it. But the other team was fast and strong. They pushed and blocked and kicked. Lily and Sam could not get the ball. They felt sad and tired. + +The clock beeped. The game was over. It was still a tie. Lily and Sam did not win the trophy. They did not lose it either. They looked at the coach. He smiled and clapped. + +"Good job, Lily and Sam!" he said. "You played very well. You are both winners!" + +He gave them each a hug and a medal. The medals were silver and had a heart on them. Lily and Sam looked at their medals. They were not the red trophy, but they were nice and warm. + +"Thank you, coach!" they said. "We like the medals!" + +They smiled and hugged each other. They did not feel sad and tired anymore. They felt happy and proud. They learned that sometimes things change, and that is okay. They still had fun and did their best. They were still friends and teammates. And they still liked the trophy, but they liked the medals more. +Lily and Ben like to sort their toys. They have a big box with many toys of different colors and shapes. They make piles of toys that are the same. Lily likes to sort by color. She puts all the red toys in one pile, all the blue toys in another pile, and so on. Ben likes to sort by shape. He puts all the round toys in one pile, all the square toys in another pile, and so on. + +One day, they find a new toy in the box. It is a watch. It is bright and shiny. It has a round face and a long strap. Lily and Ben look at the watch and wonder where to put it. + +"Let's put it in the round pile," Ben says. "It has a round face." + +"No, let's put it in the blue pile," Lily says. "It has a blue strap." + +They start to argue. They pull the watch from each other. They are not happy. + +Then, they hear a beep. The watch makes a sound. It also has numbers and hands on the face. They look at the watch and see that it can tell time. + +"Wow, this is a special toy," Lily says. "It can do more than one thing." + +"Yes, it is," Ben says. "It is not just round or blue.
