Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play with boats. They have a big box with many boats. Some boats are red, some boats are blue, some boats are yellow.
One day, they go to the park. The park has a pond. The pond has water and ducks. Sara and Tom want to play with their boats in the pond. They take out their boats from the box and put them in the water.
Sara has a red boat. She likes her red boat. She puts a mark on her boat. The mark is a star. She says, "This is my boat. It has a star. It is the best boat."
Tom has a blue boat. He likes his blue boat. He puts a mark on his boat. The mark is a circle. He says, "This is my boat. It has a circle. It is the best boat."
They push their boats in the water. They make them go fast and slow. They make them go left and right. They have fun.
But there is another boat in the pond. It is a yellow boat. It has no mark. It is shy. It stays in a corner. It does not move.
Sara and Tom see the yellow boat. They wonder who it belongs to. They go near the yellow boat. They say, "Hello, yellow boat. Who are you? Do you want to play with us?"
The yellow boat does not answer. It is shy. It does not want to talk.
Sara and Tom are nice. They want to be friends with the yellow boat. They say, "Don't be shy, yellow boat. We like you. You are a good boat. You can have a mark too. What mark do you want?"
The yellow boat thinks. It likes stars and circles. But it wants something different. It says, "I want a heart. A heart is a nice mark. It means love."
Sara and Tom smile. They have a heart sticker. They give it to the yellow boat. They put it on the yellow boat. The yellow boat is happy. It has a mark. It has a heart.
They say, "Now you have a mark, yellow boat. You have a heart. You are our friend. You can play with us."
The yellow boat is not shy anymore. It moves in the water. It plays with the red boat and the blue boat. They have fun.
They are friends. They are happy. They have boats. They have marks. They have a port. The port is the pond. The pond is their port.
