Once there was a small girl called Lucy. She lived with her mom and dad in a house near a post box. One day, her mom asked her to go outside and post something in the post box. Lucy was very polite and said yes. 
On the way to the post box she saw a man. He was wearing a hat and coat and he asked Lucy to help him. He promised her a special surprise if she did. Lucy wanted to help him so she said yes. 
The man asked Lucy to hold something for him. She agreed, but when she looked in her hands she saw it was money. She didn't understand what was happening but the man celebrated and said his surprise was for her. 
Suddenly, two policemen appeared. They asked Lucy where the man had gone. The policemen told Lucy it was a bad man who had stolen money. Lucy had been tricked and was very sad. 
The policemen took Lucy home but she was very worried. Lucy learned it was not polite to accept presents from strangers. She promised herself to never do that again.
