Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play together. But sometimes they also liked to poke each other and make each other angry. One Sunday, they were playing with their blocks in the living room. Anna wanted to build a tall tower, but Ben wanted to knock it down.
"Stop it, Ben!" Anna said. "I want to make a tower!"
"No, I want to make a crash!" Ben said. He poked Anna's tower with his finger and it fell down.
Anna was frustrated. She poked Ben back and he cried. "Mommy, Anna poked me!" he shouted.
Mommy came from the kitchen and saw the mess. She was not happy. She picked up Ben and hugged him. Then she looked at Anna and said, "Anna, why did you poke your brother?"
"Because he poked my tower!" Anna said.
Mommy sighed. She put Ben down and said, "Both of you, listen to me. Poking is not nice. It hurts and it makes people sad. You need to share your toys and play nicely. Do you understand?"
Anna and Ben nodded. They said they were sorry to each other and hugged. Then they decided to build a tower together, without poking. Mommy smiled and gave them a kiss. She was glad they were friends again.
