Lily loved to play princess with her dolls. She had a pink dress, a shiny crown, and a big castle. She pretended that she was the queen of a fairy land, and her dolls were her friends.
One day, she invited her brother Max to play with her. Max liked to play cars and robots, but he agreed to try princess for a while. He put on a fake beard and a hat, and said he was a king.
"Hello, Queen Lily," he said. "Do you want to see my kingdom?"
"Yes, please, King Max," Lily said. "Can I bring my dolls?"
"Sure, why not?" Max said. He took her hand and led her to his room.
Lily saw many cars and robots on the floor. She thought they looked fun, but not very fairy-like. She picked up a red car and made it zoom.
"Vroom, vroom!" she said.
Max paused. He looked at her and frowned.
"That's not how you play princess," he said. "You have to be polite and graceful and talk about flowers and tea."
Lily paused. She looked at him and smiled.
"That's not how I play princess," she said. "I like to be fast and loud and talk about cars and robots."
They looked at each other for a moment. Then they both laughed.
"Maybe we can play both," Max said.
"Maybe we can," Lily said.
They decided to make a new game, where they were both princesses and kings, and they had cars and robots and dolls and castles. They had a lot of fun, and learned to share and enjoy each other's toys.
