Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big green slide. Anna wants to go on the slide, but Ben is scared.
"Come on, Ben, let's go on the slide. It looks fun!" Anna says.
"No, Anna, it is too high and too fast. I don't want to go on the slide." Ben says.
"Are you a baby, Ben? I dare you to go on the slide with me. It is not hard, it is easy. You just have to sit and slide." Anna says.
Anna runs to the slide and climbs up the ladder. She sits on the top and waits for Ben. Ben looks at the slide and feels nervous. He does not want to let Anna down, but he also does not want to be scared.
"Ben, Ben, come on, don't be a chicken. It is just a slide, not a monster. You can do it, Ben. You are brave, Ben." Anna says.
Ben takes a deep breath and walks to the slide. He climbs up the ladder slowly. He reaches the top and sees Anna smiling at him. He sits next to her and holds her hand.
"Are you ready, Ben?" Anna asks.
"Yes, Anna, I am ready." Ben says.
They slide down together, feeling the wind and the sun. They laugh and scream and have fun. They reach the bottom and hug each other.
"Wow, Ben, that was awesome! You did it, Ben, you did it! You are not a baby, you are a hero!" Anna says.
"Thank you, Anna, for daring me to go on the slide. It was not so bad, it was fun. You are a good friend, Anna, and a good teacher." Ben says.
They run to the slide again and again, enjoying their work and their play. They are happy and proud. They are friends.
