Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Tim. Tim had a small, round penny that he loved very much. He kept it safe in his pocket every day.
One sunny day, Tim met a new friend named Sue. Sue saw Tim's penny and said, "Wow, that's a pretty penny! Can I see it?" Tim took the penny out of his pocket and showed it to Sue. But when he tried to put it back, the penny fell on the ground. Tim was sad and began to complain, "Oh no, my penny is dirty now!"
Sue wanted to help Tim feel better, so she said, "Don't worry, Tim. We can clean your penny and make it shiny again." They went to a nearby pond and gently washed the penny with water. The penny became shiny and clean, just like before.
Tim was very happy and thanked Sue for her help. They both promised to keep each other's things safe and to be good friends forever. And from that day on, Tim and Sue played together every day, always taking care of each other's things and never complaining.
