Anna was a thoughtful girl who liked to help others. She often visited her grandma, who was old and used a cane to walk. Anna liked to talk to her grandma and listen to her stories.
One day, Anna saw a big bag of apples at the market. She thought they would make a nice gift for her grandma, who loved apples. She asked the seller how much they cost. The seller said they cost one coin for each apple.
Anna counted her coins. She had five coins. She could buy five apples, but the bag had more than five apples. She wanted to buy the whole bag for her grandma. She had an idea. She asked the seller if he had a scale to weigh the apples.
The seller nodded and brought out a scale. He put the bag of apples on one side and a weight on the other side. The scale balanced. He said the bag of apples weighed the same as the weight.
Anna looked at the weight. It had a number on it. The number was ten. Anna thought hard. She remembered that her grandma's cane also had a number on it. The number was ten. She wondered if her grandma's cane weighed the same as the bag of apples.
She asked the seller if he would trade the bag of apples for her grandma's cane. The seller was surprised, but he agreed. He gave Anna the bag of apples and took her grandma's cane.
Anna was happy. She ran to her grandma's house with the bag of apples. She knocked on the door and gave her grandma the bag of apples. She said she traded her grandma's cane for the apples.
Her grandma was shocked. She asked Anna why she did that. She said she needed her cane to walk. She said she could not walk without her cane.
Anna felt sad. She did not think of that. She wanted to make her grandma happy, but she made her unhappy. She said she was sorry. She said she would get her cane back.
She ran back to the market with the bag of apples. She looked for the seller, but he was gone. He had left with her grandma's cane. Anna cried. She did not know what to do.
A kind man saw Anna crying. He asked her what was wrong. Anna told him what happened. The kind man felt sorry for Anna. He said he had a spare cane at home. He said he would give it to Anna if she gave him the bag of apples.
Anna was grateful. She thanked the kind man and gave him the bag of apples. He gave her the spare cane. He said it was a good trade. He said he liked apples and he did not need two canes.
Anna smiled. She ran back to her grandma's house with the spare cane. She knocked on the door and gave her grandma the spare cane. She said she got it from a kind man who traded it for the bag of apples.
Her grandma was relieved. She hugged Anna and thanked her. She said she was proud of her. She said she was a thoughtful girl who learned from her mistake. She said she loved her.
Anna was happy. She hugged her grandma and said she loved her too. She said she learned a lesson. She said she would never trade something important for something less important. She said she would always think of the consequences of her actions.
The end.
