Once upon a time, in a small town, there was a jolly shop. This shop had many toys and treats for little kids. The shop owner, Mr. Brown, was a very happy man. He loved to see the kids smile when they got a new toy.
One day, a little girl named Lily came to the shop with her mom. Lily saw a big, red ball she wanted to play with. She asked her mom if she could have it. Her mom said, "Not today, dear." But Lily kept asking. She insisted, "Please, Mom, I really want the ball!"
Lily's mom thought about it for a moment. She knew Lily was a good girl and always helped at home. So, she smiled and said, "Alright, you can have the ball." Lily was so happy! She hugged her mom and thanked her.
Mr. Brown, the jolly shop owner, saw how happy Lily was. He felt good knowing his shop made kids happy. From that day on, Lily and her red ball were the best of friends. They played together every day, and Lily always remembered to say thank you to her mom for the special gift.
