Tom and Lily like to play ball in the park. They throw the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they miss and the ball rolls away. They run after it and laugh.
One day, a big boy comes to the park. He sees Tom and Lily playing ball. He wants to play too. He walks over to them and says, "Give me the ball. I can throw it better than you."
Tom and Lily frown. They do not like the big boy. He is rude and mean. They say, "No, this is our ball. We are playing. Go away."
The big boy does not listen. He grabs the ball from Lily's hand. He says, "Watch this. I can throw the ball very high and far." He throws the ball with all his might. He makes a loud noise. He thinks he is very good.
But the ball does not go high and far. It goes low and near. It hits a tree and bounces back. It hits the big boy on the head. He falls down and cries.
Tom and Lily look at the ball and the big boy. They think he is very silly. They say, "That was a bad pitch. You are not good at throwing. You are good at falling." They pick up the ball and run away. They play ball in another part of the park. They are happy and have fun.
