Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with cars and trucks. Today is Tom's birthday. He has a big cake and many balloons. He invites Mia to his house to celebrate.
"Happy birthday, Tom!" Mia says. She gives him a present. It is a new truck. It is red and shiny. Tom likes it very much. He says, "Thank you, Mia! This is a great truck. Let's play with it outside."
They go to the backyard. There is a hill of dirt. Tom and Mia put their trucks on the hill. They make them go down fast. They make loud noises. "Vroom, vroom!" They have fun.
But then, something bad happens. Tom's truck goes too fast. It hits a rock. It flies in the air. It lands on the fence. It breaks into pieces. It is a wreck.
"Oh no!" Tom cries. He runs to his truck. He picks up the pieces. He is sad. His new truck is ruined.
Mia feels sorry for Tom. She runs to him. She hugs him. She says, "I'm sorry, Tom. It was an accident. Your truck was very high. It was too high for the fence. Don't be sad. I have an idea."
She takes him to her house. She has a box of tools. She says, "We can fix your truck. We can use these tools. We can make it new again. It will be fun."
Tom smiles. He says, "Really? You can do that? Thank you, Mia. You are a good friend. Let's fix my truck."
They work together. They use the tools. They put the pieces back. They make the truck whole again. It is not as shiny as before. But it still works. It can still go fast.
They go back to the hill. They put their trucks on the hill. They make them go down fast. They make loud noises. "Vroom, vroom!" They have fun.
They celebrate Tom's birthday. They eat cake and balloons. They are happy. They are friends.
