+One day, Tom saw a shiny thing in the kitchen. It was a trap with a piece of cheese inside. Tom was very hungry and curious. He thought he could take the cheese and run away. He did not see the wire that would snap the trap shut.
+
+He ran towards the cheese and nibbled on it. But as soon as he did, the trap closed around him. He was stuck in a small cell made of metal. He tried to push and bite the bars, but they were too strong. He felt very scared and lonely.
+
+The cat heard the noise and came to the kitchen. He saw Tom in the trap and smiled. He said, "Hello, little mouse. You are my dinner now. I will wait until the people are gone and then I will open the trap and eat you."
+
+Tom felt very sad and hopeless. He wished he had not been so greedy and foolish. He wished he had a friend to help him. He said, "Please, cat, do not eat me. I am very small and not tasty. You have plenty of food in your bowl. Let me go and I will never bother you again."
+
+The cat laughed and said, "No, mouse, you are mine. You should have been more careful and not settled for the cheese in the trap. Now you will pay for your mistake. Goodbye, mouse."
+
+The cat left the kitchen and went to sleep on the sofa. Tom cried and prayed for a miracle. He did not want to die. He wanted to be free and happy again. He wondered if anyone would ever find him and save him. He felt very lonely in his cell.
+Lily and Tom are playing in the park. They have a big ball and a small match. Lily likes to throw the ball high in the air and catch it. Tom likes to throw the match on the ground and watch it burn.
+
+"Look, Lily, look!" Tom says. He throws the match on the grass and it makes a small fire. "It is fun!"
+
+"No, Tom, no!" Lily says. She is scared of the fire. "It is bad! It can hurt us and the park!"
+
+Lily runs to the match and stomps on it with her foot. She puts out the fire. She is angry with Tom. "Don't do that again, Tom! It is not fun, it is dangerous!"
+
+Tom feels sorry. He did not mean to scare Lily or hurt the park. He hugs Lily and says, "I'm sorry, Lily. I won't do that again. I love you and the park."
+
+Lily hugs Tom back and says, "I love you too, Tom. Let's play with the ball instead. It is safer and more fun."
+
+They take the ball and throw it to each other. They laugh and have fun. They are happy.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big truck parked near their house. The truck had a lot of boxes and a long ladder on it.
+
+"Let's go see what's in the boxes!" Tim said. He ran to the truck and climbed on the ladder.
+
+"Wait, Tim, that's not our truck!" Sam said. He followed his brother and tried to stop him.
+
+But Tim did not listen. He reached the top of the ladder and opened a box. He saw a shiny toy car inside. He wanted to take it.
+
+"Wow, look at this car!" Tim said. He grabbed the car and put it in his pocket.
+
+"Tim, that's not yours! That's stealing!" Sam said. He was scared and angry.
+
+But Tim did not care. He looked for another box to open. He saw one that was very big and heavy. He tried to pull it, but it was too hard.
+
+"Help me, Sam, this box is stuck!" Tim said.
+
+Sam did not want to help. He wanted to go back to their house. He was afraid that the truck driver would come back and see them.
+
+"Tim, let's go, this is wrong!" Sam said.
+
+But Tim did not listen. He pulled harder and harder. He did not see that the ladder was shaking and moving. He did not hear Sam shouting.
+
+"Tim, watch out, the ladder is falling!" Sam said.
+
+But it was too late. The ladder fell down with a loud crash. Tim fell down with it. He hit the ground and hurt himself. He dropped the toy car and it broke.
+
+Sam ran to Tim and saw that he was crying. He felt sorry for him, but he also felt angry.
+
+"Tim, you were foolish! You should not have climbed on the truck and taken things that were not yours! You could have been hurt more or gotten in trouble!" Sam said.
+
+Tim realized that Sam was right. He was foolish and greedy. He wished he had listened to Sam and stayed away from the truck.
+
+He said sorry to Sam and hugged him. He hoped that the truck driver would not find out what he had done.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not take things that are not yours and do not play with things that are dangerous. Listen to your brother or sister when they tell you to stop.
+Sam and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw a big pond with many ducks. Sam and Lily liked to feed the ducks with bread. They threw some bread into the water and the ducks came closer.
+
+One duck was bigger and louder than the others. He pushed the other ducks away and took all the bread. Sam and Lily did not like the big duck. They thought he was mean and greedy. They wanted to share the bread with all the ducks.
+
+"Go away, big duck!" Sam shouted. "You are not nice. You are not powerful. You are just rude."
+
+The big duck did not listen. He quacked louder and louder. He flapped his wings and splashed water. He tried to scare Sam and Lily.
+
+But Sam and Lily were not scared. They felt brave and smart. They had a plan. They whispered to each other and smiled.
+
+They threw some more bread into the water, but not near the big duck. They threw it near a small duck who was hiding behind a rock. The small duck was shy and hungry. He saw the bread and swam towards it.
+
+The big duck saw the small duck and the bread. He wanted the bread too. He chased the small duck and tried to take the bread.
+
+But Sam and Lily had tricked him. The bread was not real. It was a toy. It had a string attached to it. Sam and Lily pulled the string and the bread moved away from the big duck.
+
+The big duck was confused and angry. He followed the bread, but he could not catch it. He quacked and quacked, but no one listened.
+
+The small duck was happy. He found some real bread that Sam and Lily had left for him. He ate the bread and thanked Sam and Lily.
+
+"Thank you, Sam and Lily," the small duck said. "You are kind and clever. You are powerful. You are my friends."
+
+Sam and Lily smiled and hugged the small duck. They felt good and proud. They had helped the small duck and taught the big duck a lesson. They had fun at the park with Mom and the ducks.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the backyard. They saw a big ladder leaning on the wall. They wanted to climb it and see what was on the roof.
+
+"Let's go up the ladder!" Ben said. "Maybe we can find something cool!"
+
+Lily nodded. She liked to explore new things. She followed Ben to the ladder. They grabbed the rungs and started to climb.
+
+But when they were halfway up, they heard a loud voice.
+
+"Hey, you two! Get down from there right now!" It was Dad. He looked angry and worried.
+
+Lily and Ben stopped climbing. They looked at Dad. He was holding a paint can and a brush. He was painting the wall.
+
+"Why are you on the ladder?" Dad asked. "It's not a toy. It's an important tool. You could fall and get hurt. That's very dangerous!"
+
+Lily and Ben felt scared and sorry. They did not know the ladder was important. They did not want to make Dad mad. They did not want to get hurt.
+
+"Sorry, Dad," they said. "We were just curious. We wanted to see the roof."
+
+Dad sighed. He put down the paint can and the brush. He climbed the ladder and helped Lily and Ben get down.
+
+"I know you were curious, but you have to be careful," he said. "The roof is not a place for kids. It's high and slippery. There are better things to see and do in the backyard. Like playing with your toys, or reading a book, or helping me paint."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They hugged Dad and said they loved him. They said they would not climb the ladder again.
+
+Dad smiled and hugged them back. He said he loved them too. He said he was glad they were safe. He said he would show them something cool when he finished painting.
+
+Lily and Ben wondered what it was. They decided to wait and see. They went to play with their toys, read a book, and help Dad paint. They had fun in the backyard. They forgot about the ladder and the roof.
+Lily and Sam liked to play in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. But their favorite thing was to rock on the big horse. The horse was brown and had a long mane. It was very fun to rock on it.
+
+One day, the weather was bad. It was cold and wet and windy. Lily and Sam could not go to the park. They were sad and bored. They wanted to rock on the horse.
+
+They asked their mom if they could rock on the couch. Their mom said no. She said the couch was not for rocking. She said they could rock on the floor with a pillow. Lily and Sam did not like that idea. They said it was not the same.
+
+They asked their dad if they could rock on the bed. Their dad said no. He said the bed was not for rocking. He said they could rock on the chair with a blanket. Lily and Sam did not like that idea. They said it was not the same.
+
+They asked their grandma if they could rock on the porch. Their grandma said yes. She said the porch was for rocking. She said she had a big rocking chair that they could share. Lily and Sam liked that idea. They said it was better than the horse.
+
+They put on their coats and boots and hats. They went to the porch with their grandma. They climbed on the rocking chair. They rocked back and forth. They felt the wind and the rain. They saw the clouds and the birds. They heard the thunder and the cars. They smiled and laughed. They thanked their grandma. They said she was very polite. They said they loved to rock on the porch.
+Lily and Tom were playing with a big box in the living room. They pretended it was a spaceship and made noises like zoom and beep. They had a lot of fun flying to different planets and meeting aliens.
+
+But then, Tom had an idea. He said, "Let's break the box and make a fort!" He grabbed one side of the box and pulled hard. Lily said, "No, don't break it! Mommy will be mad!" She tried to stop him, but it was too late. The box ripped and fell apart.
+
+Mommy heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw the broken box and the mess on the floor. She was very serious and said, "What did you do? You broke the box! That was not nice. You have to clean up and say sorry."
+
+Lily and Tom felt bad. They knew they did something wrong. They said, "Sorry, Mommy. We were playing and we broke the box. We didn't mean to." They helped Mommy pick up the pieces and put them in the trash.
+
+Mommy hugged them and said, "I forgive you. But next time, be careful with your toys and don't break them. OK?" Lily and Tom nodded and said, "OK, Mommy. We love you." They learned their lesson and played nicely with their other toys.
+Ben and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park near their house. There was a big well in the park. Some kids said it was deep and dark and had a monster inside. Ben and Lily did not believe them. They wanted to see for themselves.
+
+One day, they went to the well and looked inside. They saw nothing but black. They heard nothing but wind. They were not scared. They were brave. They decided to throw a stone in the well and listen for a splash.
+
+Ben picked up a stone and threw it in the well. He and Lily leaned over the edge and waited. They heard nothing. They waited some more. They heard nothing. They started to feel a little scared. Maybe the well was too deep. Maybe the stone was too small. Maybe the monster ate it.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud roar from the well. It sounded angry and hungry. It sounded like it wanted to eat them. Ben and Lily screamed and ran away from the well. They did not stop until they reached their house. They hugged each other and cried. They were very scared.
+
+They told their mom what happened. She said it was not a monster. It was a prank. Some older kids had hidden a speaker in the well and played a scary sound when they saw Ben and Lily. She said they were mean and rude. She said she was proud of Ben and Lily for being loyal and brave. She said they should not go near the well again. She gave them cookies and milk and a hug. Ben and Lily felt better. They were still best friends. They were not scared anymore.
+Lily and Max were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a purple sack that she filled with her dolls and stuffed animals. Max had a big truck that he drove around the carpet. He liked to make loud noises and pretend he was a driver.
+
+"Beep beep! Move out of the way!" Max said as he drove his truck towards Lily's sack. He wanted to knock it over and see what was inside.
+
+"No, Max! Don't touch my sack!" Lily said. She hugged her sack and tried to protect it from Max. She did not want him to mess up her toys.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let me see! It's just a game!" Max said. He pushed his truck harder and made it bump into Lily's sack. The sack fell over and some of the toys spilled out.
+
+"Max, you're mean! You made my toys fall!" Lily said. She started to cry and picked up her toys. She was sad and angry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily, I didn't mean to make you cry. I just wanted to play with you." Max said. He felt bad and stopped his truck. He got off and walked over to Lily. He picked up a doll and gave it to her.
+
+"Here, Lily, this is for you. It's a pretty doll. Do you want to play with me?" Max said. He smiled and hoped Lily would forgive him.
+
+Lily looked at the doll and then at Max. She saw that he was sorry and wanted to be nice. She wiped her tears and smiled back.
+
+"Okay, Max, thank you. It's a pretty doll. I want to play with you." Lily said. She took the doll and put it in her sack. She got up and held Max's hand.
+
+"Let's go to the stage and put on a show with our toys. You can be the driver and I can be the princess." Lily said. She pointed to the couch that they used as a stage.
+
+"Okay, Lily, that sounds fun. Let's go to the stage and put on a show." Max said. He followed Lily to the couch and picked up his truck. He was happy and excited.
+
+Lily and Max went to the stage and put on a show with their toys. They had fun and forgot about their fight. They were friends again.
+Sam and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They were having fun.
+
+But then, Sam saw a big dog. He was scared of big dogs. He ran away from the dog. He did not see the rock on the ground. He tripped and fell. He hurt his knee. He felt pain.
+
+He shouted, "Ow! Ow! Ow! Help me, Lily!"
+
+Lily heard Sam. She ran to him. She saw his knee. It was bleeding. She felt sorry for Sam.
+
+She said, "Don't cry, Sam. I will help you. Come on, let's go to the bench. I have a band-aid in my bag."
+
+She helped Sam get up. He was weak. He leaned on Lily. They walked to the bench. Lily took out a band-aid. She put it on Sam's knee.
+
+She said, "There, that's better. Does it still hurt?"
+
+Sam said, "A little. But thank you, Lily. You are a good friend."
+
+Lily said, "You're welcome, Sam. You are a good friend, too. Do you want to play some more?"
+
+Sam said, "Yes, but not with the big dog. Let's play with the ball."
+
+Lily said, "OK, let's play with the ball. But be careful, Sam. Watch out for the rocks."
+
+They smiled. They played with the ball. They forgot about the pain. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom. One day, they see a big bus stop near the park. Many people get off the bus. They have big bags and nice clothes. Lily and Ben notice that they are wealthy.
+
+The people walk to the zoo. They want to see the animals. Lily and Ben love the zoo too. They ask their mom if they can go. Mom says yes, but they have to wait in line. The line is very long. Lily and Ben are sad. They want to see the lions and the monkeys.
+
+Mom has an idea. She takes Lily and Ben to the other side of the park. There is a pond with ducks and fish. Mom gives them some bread to feed the ducks. Lily and Ben are happy. They throw the bread and watch the ducks eat. They also see a turtle and a frog. They forget about the zoo and the line. They have fun with the pond animals.
+Anna liked to wear her red shoes. They had shiny buckles and high heels. She felt very grown-up in them. She wanted to show them to her friends at school.
+
+But when she got to school, she saw that everyone else was wearing normal shoes. Shoes with laces or velcro or straps. Shoes that were flat and comfortable. Shoes that did not make noise when they walked.
+
+"Look at Anna's shoes!" one of the boys said. "They are so silly! She can't run or play in them. She looks like a clown!"
+
+The other kids laughed and pointed at Anna. Anna felt very bad. She wished she had worn normal shoes. She wished she could hide her red shoes. She felt embarrassed.
+
+She tried to walk away, but her heels made it hard. She stumbled and tripped over a rock. She fell down and scraped her knee. Her red shoes flew off her feet. The kids laughed even more.
+
+"Are you okay, Anna?" a voice said. It was Lily, Anna's best friend. She ran over to Anna and helped her up. She did not laugh or point. She looked at Anna's shoes and smiled.
+
+"I like your red shoes, Anna," she said. "They are very pretty and special. You don't have to wear normal shoes to be my friend. You can wear whatever you like. I like you for who you are."
+
+Anna felt a warm feeling in her heart. She smiled back at Lily. She hugged her and thanked her. She did not care what the other kids said. She had a true friend who liked her red shoes and her. She learned that it was okay to be different and that being kind was more important than being normal.
+Sara liked to study the birds in her garden. She had a journal where she drew them and wrote their names. She wanted to learn more about them and why they were unique.
+
+One day, she saw a new bird that she had never seen before. It was blue and yellow and had a long tail. It was singing a beautiful song. Sara ran inside to get her journal and a pencil. She wanted to draw the new bird and write its name.
+
+But when she came back, the bird was gone. She looked around and saw a big cat hiding behind a bush. The cat had the bird in its mouth. Sara was very sad and angry. She shouted at the cat.
+
+"Bad cat! Let the bird go! You are mean and greedy!"
+
+The cat looked at Sara and hissed. It did not want to let go of its prey. Sara threw a stone at the cat. The cat dropped the bird and ran away. Sara ran to the bird and picked it up gently. She hoped it was not hurt.
+
+The bird was still alive, but it was bleeding and scared. Sara felt sorry for it. She wrapped it in a cloth and took it inside. She asked her mom to help her. Her mom was a vet and knew how to take care of animals.
+
+"Mom, look what I found! It's a unique bird! But the cat attacked it. Can you help it?"
+
+Her mom looked at the bird and smiled.
+
+"Sara, you are very brave and kind. This is a parakeet. It is not a wild bird. It is a pet bird. Someone must have lost it or let it go. It is very lucky that you saved it. We will clean its wound and give it some food and water. Maybe we can find its owner or keep it as our own."
+
+Sara was happy. She had a new friend and a new entry for her journal. She decided to name the bird Bluey. She studied it and learned more about it. She and Bluey became very close. Sara loved to hear it sing and talk. She was glad that she had saved it from the cat.
+Lily liked to write stories. She had a big book with many pages. She used crayons to write and draw. She wrote about a rocket that went to the moon. She wanted to go to the moon too.
+
+One day, she showed her story to her brother Max. Max was older and he liked to tease Lily. He looked at her book and said, "This is not a good story. This is not a real rocket. It is too small and too red. And you can't go to the moon. You are too little and too scared."
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She said, "This is a good story. This is my rocket. It is big and fast and red. And I can go to the moon. I am not little and not scared. You are mean and you don't know anything."
+
+Max laughed and said, "Prove it. Show me your rocket. Show me how you can go to the moon. If you can't, then you have to give me your book and your crayons."
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She had an idea. She said, "OK. I will show you. Come with me." She took her book and her crayons and ran to the backyard. She found a big cardboard box and some tape. She used her crayons to draw windows and wings and stars on the box. She put her book inside the box. She said, "This is my rocket. I am ready to go to the moon. Are you coming with me?"
+
+Max followed her. He saw the box and he said, "This is not a rocket. This is a silly box. You can't go to the moon in a box. You are just pretending."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "No, I am not pretending. I am writing. I am writing my story. And you can't stop me. You can't have my book and my crayons. They are mine. And you can't come with me. You are not ready. You are not ready to write. You are not ready to dream. You are not ready to go to the moon."
+
+She closed the box and pretended to blast off. She made noises like a rocket. She imagined she was flying to the moon. She was happy. She was writing her story.
+Mia and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. But their favorite game is pillow fort. They use pillows, blankets and chairs to make a big fort. They pretend they are kings and queens of the fort.
+
+One day, they are playing pillow fort when they hear a knock on the door. It is their mom. She says, "Time for lunch, kids. Come downstairs, please."
+
+Mia and Ben do not want to stop playing. They say, "No, mom. We are busy. We are in our fort."
+
+Mom says, "But you need to eat, kids. You are hungry. And I made your favorite soup and sandwiches."
+
+Mia and Ben still do not want to go. They say, "No, mom. We are not hungry. We have food in our fort. We have cookies and juice."
+
+Mom says, "Cookies and juice are not good for you, kids. You need healthy food. And you need to share with your brother and sister. They are waiting for you."
+
+Mia and Ben look at each other. They know mom is right. They love their brother and sister. They do not want to be selfish. They say, "OK, mom. We will come. But can we keep our fort?"
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "Of course, you can keep your fort. But you need to tidy up a little. And you need to raise your pillows. They are too low. You might bump your heads."
+
+Mia and Ben nod. They raise their pillows. They make their fort neat. They grab their cookies and juice. They say, "Thank you, mom. We love you."
+
+Mom says, "I love you too, kids. You are very good. Now, come on. Let's go eat."
+
+Mia and Ben follow mom. They hold hands. They are happy. They have a chubby cat. His name is Fluffy. He likes to sleep in their fort. He is their friend. They say, "Bye, Fluffy. We will be back soon. Do not eat our pillows." Fluffy meows. He is happy too. He has a cozy fort. He has good kids. He has a good life.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys and sing songs. One day, Sara has a new toy. It is a recorder. It can record sounds and play them back.
+
+"Look, Tom, I have a recorder. Do you want to try?" Sara says.
+
+"Yes, please. How does it work?" Tom asks.
+
+Sara shows Tom how to press the buttons and talk into the recorder. They take turns to record their names, their favorite animals, and silly noises. They laugh when they hear their voices and sounds.
+
+"Let's record a song. What song do you like?" Sara says.
+
+"I like Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. Do you know it?" Tom says.
+
+"Yes, I do. Let's sing it together." Sara says.
+
+They sing the song and record it. They are happy and proud of their song.
+
+"Can we play it for Mom and Dad? Maybe they will like it too." Tom says.
+
+"Sure. Let's go find them. Maybe they will give us a hug and a cookie." Sara says.
+
+They run to the living room, where Mom and Dad are sitting on the couch. They look gloomy. They have had a hard day at their jobs. They are tired and worried.
+
+"Mom, Dad, we have something to show you. We made a song with our recorder. Do you want to hear it?" Sara says.
+
+Mom and Dad smile and nod. They are curious and glad to see their children happy.
+
+Sara and Tom play their song for Mom and Dad. They hear their sweet voices and the familiar tune. They feel warm and cheerful.
+
+"That was wonderful, Sara and Tom. You are very talented and creative. We are so proud of you. Thank you for sharing your song with us. You made our day better." Mom says.
+
+"Yes, thank you, Sara and Tom. You are amazing and kind. We love you very much. How about we give you a hug and a cookie?" Dad says.
+
+Sara and Tom beam and hug their parents. They enjoy their cookies and cuddle on the couch. They are happy and cozy. They have done a good job with their recorder. They have made their parents happy. They have had a fun day.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big tree with pink flowers. Sara likes the flowers. She wants to pick one for her mom.
+
+"Can I have a flower, Ben?" Sara asks.
+
+"OK, but be careful. The tree is very tall," Ben says.
+
+Sara climbs on the tree. She reaches for a flower. But she slips and falls. She hurts her knee. She cries.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! My knee!" Sara says.
+
+Ben runs to Sara. He sees her knee. It is bleeding. He feels sorry for Sara.
+
+"Don't cry, Sara. I will fix your knee," Ben says.
+
+He takes a band-aid from his backpack. He puts it on Sara's knee. He gives her a hug.
+
+"There, all better. You are very brave, Sara," Ben says.
+
+Sara smiles. She feels better. She sees the flower in her hand. She forgot she picked it.
+
+"Look, Ben. I have a flower for mom. It is pink like the tree," Sara says.
+
+"That is a nice flower, Sara. Mom will love it," Ben says.
+
+They hold hands and walk to their mom. They give her the flower. Mom hugs them and kisses their cheeks.
+
+"Thank you, Sara and Ben. You are very sweet. I love the flower. And I love you," Mom says.
+
+They all smile. They are happy. They love the tree with pink flowers.
+Tom and Lily like to visit the museum with their mom. They love to see the big bones of the dinosaurs. They wonder how the dinosaurs lived and what they ate.
+
+One day, they see a new dinosaur in the museum. It is very big and has a long neck and a long tail. It is called a brontosaurus. Tom and Lily want to touch it, but their mom says no. She says it is not safe to touch the bones.
+
+Tom and Lily are sad. They want to feel the dinosaur. They think it is soft and comfortable. They wait until their mom is busy looking at something else. Then they sneak behind the rope and run to the dinosaur.
+
+They touch the dinosaur's neck and tail. They are happy. They think the dinosaur is friendly and nice. They hug the dinosaur and say hello.
+
+But then they hear a loud noise. It is the museum guard. He is angry. He sees Tom and Lily touching the dinosaur. He says they are breaking the rules. He says they have to leave the museum.
+
+Tom and Lily are scared. They let go of the dinosaur and run to their mom. They say they are sorry. They say they just wanted to say hi to the dinosaur.
+
+Their mom is not happy. She says they should not touch the things in the museum. She says they could hurt the bones or themselves. She says they have to listen to her and the guard.
+
+Tom and Lily feel bad. They say they are sorry again. They say they love the dinosaur. They say they will not touch it again.
+
+The guard is still angry. He says they have to go home. He says they are not welcome in the museum anymore.
+
+Tom and Lily are sad. They say goodbye to the dinosaur. They wish they could visit it again. They hope it is comfortable and happy. They hope it is not lonely. They hope it has friends.
+Sara and Tom are playing in the park. They like to look for things in the grass and the trees. They find rocks, leaves, bugs and feathers. They put them in a basket and show each other.
+
+"Look, I find a big rock. It is shiny and smooth," Sara says.
+
+"I find a feather. It is soft and white. It is from a bird," Tom says.
+
+They keep looking for more things. Then, Sara sees something shiny in the dirt. She digs it out with her fingers. It is a metal ring with a blue stone. The stone has a shape like an eye.
+
+"Wow, what is this?" Sara asks.
+
+Tom comes over and looks at the ring. He thinks it is pretty and cool.
+
+"Maybe it is a magic ring. Maybe it can do things," he says.
+
+They try to put the ring on their fingers, but it is too big. It falls off and rolls away. They run after it, but they lose it in the grass.
+
+"Oh no, where is the ring?" Sara says.
+
+They look and look, but they cannot find it. They are sad and scared. They think someone will be angry if they lose the ring.
+
+Then, they see an old man sitting on a bench. He has a big smile and a long beard. He is holding the ring in his hand.
+
+"Hello, children. Are you looking for this?" he says.
+
+He shows them the ring. Sara and Tom are happy and surprised. They run to the old man and hug him.
+
+"Thank you, thank you. How did you find it?" Sara says.
+
+The old man laughs and winks.
+
+"I have a magic eye. I can see things that others cannot. This ring is very old and very special. It belongs to me. I lost it a long time ago, but now I find it again. You helped me find it. You are very kind and clever," he says.
+
+He puts the ring on his finger. It fits perfectly. He gives Sara and Tom a candy each.
+
+"Here, this is for you. A little gift for your help. Now, go and play. Have fun. And remember, magic is everywhere. You just have to look for it," he says.
+
+Sara and Tom say thank you and goodbye. They take their candy and their basket. They go back to their game. They are happy and curious. They wonder what other things they can find in the park.
+Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play with toys and sing songs. One day, they find a big box in the park. They open the box and see a hairy thing inside. It has four legs, a long tail and big ears. It looks like a dog, but it is not a dog.
+
+"Hello, hairy thing. What are you?" Ben asks.
+
+The hairy thing does not answer. It makes a loud noise. It sounds like music, but it is not music. It is a roar.
+
+"Roar! I am a lion. I am the king of the jungle. You are my lunch," the hairy thing says.
+
+Ben and Lily are scared. They run away from the box. The hairy thing jumps out of the box and chases them.
+
+"Help! Help! The hairy thing is a lion. It wants to eat us," Lily cries.
+
+They see a man with a hat and a stick. He is a zookeeper. He hears the roar and sees the lion.
+
+"Stop, lion. You are not in the jungle. You are in the park. You escaped from the zoo. You cannot eat the children. They are my friends," the zookeeper says.
+
+He raises his stick and makes a loud noise. It sounds like a whistle, but it is not a whistle. It is a dart. The dart hits the lion and makes it sleepy.
+
+"Zzzz. I am not hungry anymore. I am tired. I want to go back to the zoo," the lion says.
+
+The zookeeper puts the lion back in the box. He says sorry to Ben and Lily.
+
+"Sorry, children. The lion is not a bad hairy thing. He is just confused. He thinks he is in the jungle. He likes music, but he does not know how to sing. He only knows how to roar. Do you want to come with me to the zoo and teach him some songs?" the zookeeper asks.
+
+Ben and Lily nod. They are not scared anymore. They are curious. They want to see the zoo and the other animals. They want to sing songs with the lion and make him happy.
+
+They go with the zookeeper to the zoo. They see many hairy things and other things. They sing songs and make music. The lion learns how to sing. He is not the king of the jungle. He is the king of the music. He is their friend.
+Anna and Ben went to the park with Mom. They had a big bag with snacks and toys. Mom said, "Let's find a nice spot to unpack and have a picnic." Anna and Ben nodded and followed Mom.
+
+They saw a big tree with many leaves. The leaves were green and yellow and red. They looked pretty. Anna said, "Can we unpack under the tree, Mom?" Mom smiled and said, "Sure, that sounds like a good idea." They walked to the tree and put the bag down.
+
+Mom opened the bag and took out some sandwiches, apples, and juice. She gave one to Anna and one to Ben. They said, "Thank you, Mom." They sat on a big leaf and ate their snacks. They felt happy and full.
+
+After they finished, Mom said, "Do you want to play with your toys?" Anna and Ben said, "Yes, please." Mom took out a ball, a doll, and a car from the bag. She gave the ball to Anna and the doll to Ben. She said, "You can share the car, okay?" Anna and Ben said, "Okay, Mom."
+
+They played with their toys on the big leaf. They threw the ball, hugged the doll, and drove the car. They had fun. They also saw some birds, squirrels, and butterflies. They said, "Hello, animals." The animals said, "Hello, children." They made friends.
+
+They had a good time at the park. They were glad they unpacked under the big tree. They liked the big leaf. They loved Mom. They said, "This is a nice day, Mom." Mom said, "Yes, it is, my sweeties." She hugged them and kissed them. They hugged and kissed her back. They were happy.
+Lily and Tom like to go to the park with Mom. They see many things in nature. They see birds, flowers, trees, and bugs. They like to play and run and laugh.
+
+One day, they find a hidden path in the park. It is behind a big bush. They are curious and want to see where it goes. They ask Mom if they can go. Mom says yes, but they have to stay close and be careful.
+
+They go on the hidden path. It is narrow and twisty. They see more things in nature. They see a stream, a bridge, a squirrel, and a butterfly. They are happy and excited.
+
+But then, they hear a loud roar. It is a bear! It is big and brown and scary. It is on the hidden path, too. It sees them and growls. They are afraid and scream.
+
+Mom hears them and runs to them. She grabs them and hugs them. She tells them to be quiet and calm. She backs away slowly from the bear. The bear watches them, but does not follow them. They go back to the park. They are safe and relieved.
+
+They tell Mom they are sorry for going on the hidden path. They say they will not do it again. Mom says she is glad they are okay. She says they can still enjoy nature, but they have to be smart and careful. She says they can go to the playground and have fun. They say yes and smile. They love Mom and nature.
+Anna and Ben liked to play near the harbor. They saw big boats and small boats. They saw fish and birds. They liked to wave at the people on the boats.
+
+One day, they saw a new boat. It was red and white. It had a big cross on it. Anna and Ben wondered what it was.
+
+"Look, Ben, a new boat!" Anna said.
+
+"Maybe it is a doctor boat," Ben said. "Maybe it helps sick people."
+
+They ran to the dock to see the boat better. They saw some people get off the boat. They had white clothes and masks. They carried bags and boxes.
+
+"Hello, children," one of the people said. "Do you want to know what we do?"
+
+"Yes, please," Anna and Ben said.
+
+"We are a medical team," the person said. "We return from a far place where many people are not healthy. We give them medicine and food and water. We make them feel better."
+
+"Wow, that is very nice of you," Anna said.
+
+"Can we see your boat?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, you can," the person said. "But you have to be careful. There are many things on the boat that you cannot touch. They are for the sick people only."
+
+The person took Anna and Ben to the boat. They showed them the rooms and the machines and the supplies. Anna and Ben were amazed. They learned many new things.
+
+"Thank you for showing us your boat," Anna and Ben said.
+
+"You are welcome, children," the person said. "We are happy to share our work with you. We hope you stay healthy and happy."
+
+Anna and Ben waved goodbye to the person and the boat. They returned to their home. They told their mom and dad what they saw and learned. They felt proud and curious. They wanted to help people too.
+Lily and Ben were at the zoo with their mom. They liked to see the animals and learn their names. They saw monkeys, elephants, giraffes, and many more. But their favorite animal was the tiger. The tiger was big and orange and had black stripes. It looked strong and fierce.
+
+"Mom, can we go see the tiger again?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, honey. Let's go before we have lunch," mom said.
+
+They walked to the tiger's cage and saw it lying on a rock. It was sleeping and did not move. Lily and Ben wanted to see it roar and play.
+
+"Hey, tiger, wake up!" Ben yelled. He thought it was funny to make noise.
+
+"Shh, Ben, don't yell. You will scare the tiger and the other people," mom said.
+
+But Ben did not listen. He yelled louder and louder. He wanted the tiger to hear him.
+
+"Roar, tiger, roar!" he yelled.
+
+The tiger heard Ben and opened its eyes. It was not happy. It did not like the noise. It got up and walked to the cage. It looked at Ben and growled.
+
+"Wow, look, mom, the tiger is awake!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, it is. But it is not happy. It is angry. We should leave it alone," mom said.
+
+But Ben did not leave it alone. He yelled even louder. He wanted the tiger to roar.
+
+"Roar, tiger, roar!" he yelled.
+
+The tiger did not roar. It did something else. It opened its mouth and spit. It spit at Ben and hit him on his shirt. Ben was shocked and scared. He stopped yelling.
+
+"Ew, gross, the tiger spit on me!" he cried.
+
+"Ben, look what you did. You made the tiger mad. And you ruined your shirt. Your shirt is expensive. It was a gift from grandma. How will we clean it?" mom said.
+
+She was not happy. She was angry. She took Ben and Lily away from the tiger. She went to find a bathroom and a napkin. She wanted to wash Ben's shirt and teach him a lesson.
+
+"Ben, you should not yell at the animals. They are not toys. They have feelings. They can be scared or angry. You should be quiet and respectful. Do you understand?" mom said.
+
+Ben nodded. He felt sorry. He did not want to yell at the animals anymore. He did not want to make them mad. He did not want to get spit on again. He learned his lesson.
+
+The end.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and blocks. One day, they go to the park with their moms. There are many swings and slides and sand.
+
+"Look, Sam, there is a big row of cars!" Tom says. He sees many white cars parked on the street. They are shiny and clean.
+
+"Wow, they are so nice!" Sam says. He wants to touch them and see inside.
+
+"Let's test them!" Tom says. He runs to the first car and opens the door. He climbs on the seat and pretends to drive.
+
+"Beep beep!" he says. He honks the horn.
+
+"Tom, no!" Sam says. He follows him and tries to pull him out. "That is not your car! That is someone else's car!"
+
+But Tom does not listen. He moves to the next car and does the same thing. He opens the door and honks the horn.
+
+"Beep beep!"
+
+"Tom, stop!" Sam says. He is scared. He sees a man coming out of a shop. He looks angry. He walks to the row of cars.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" the man says. He sees Tom and Sam in his car. He is very mad.
+
+"Sorry, mister!" Sam says. He jumps out of the car and runs to his mom. He tells her what happened.
+
+"Tom, come here!" his mom says. She sees the man and the car. She is very sorry. She apologizes to the man and takes Tom away.
+
+"Tom, that was very bad!" she says. "You cannot test other people's cars! You have to ask first! You could have broken something or hurt yourself!"
+
+Tom feels bad. He knows he did wrong. He says sorry to his mom and to the man.
+
+"I will not test cars again," he says. "I will only play with my own cars and blocks."
+
+Sam comes to him and gives him a hug.
+
+"It's okay, Tom," he says. "We are still friends. But next time, let's play in the sand or on the swings. They are more fun and safe."
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They liked to run and slide and swing. They saw a big church across the street. It had a tall tower and a big door.
+
+"Can we go see the church, mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, but we have to be careful and quiet," mom said. "Some people are praying inside."
+
+They crossed the street and walked to the church. The door was locked. Mom tried to open it, but it did not move.
+
+"Maybe there is another door," Ben said. He ran around the church, looking for a way in. Lily followed him.
+
+They found a small door at the back of the church. It had a keyhole and a handle. Ben reached for the handle, but Lily stopped him.
+
+"Wait, Ben. We don't have a key. We can't unlock the door. And maybe someone will be mad if we go in."
+
+Ben looked at the door. He was curious and brave. He wanted to see what was inside the church. He pulled the handle. The door opened.
+
+"Wow, it's not locked!" Ben said. He smiled and ran inside. Lily was fearful. She did not want to go in. But she did not want to lose Ben. She ran after him.
+
+They entered the church. It was dark and quiet. They saw rows of seats and a big cross. They saw candles and statues and paintings. They heard a voice.
+
+"Who's there?" the voice said. It was deep and loud.
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They did not know who the voice was. They did not know what to do. They ran back to the door. They tried to open it. But it was locked.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with many flags on it. The flags are from different countries. They have different colors and shapes.
+
+"Look, Ben, this flag is red and white. It is from Canada. My aunt lives there," Lily says.
+
+"Wow, that is cool. And this flag is green, white and orange. It is from Ireland. My grandpa came from there," Ben says.
+
+They see more flags and learn more about different countries. They have fun.
+
+But then, they see a boy with a big stick. He is angry. He does not like the flags. He wants to break them. He runs to the tree and hits the flags with his stick.
+
+"Hey, stop that! You are mean! The flags are nice!" Lily shouts.
+
+"No, they are not! They are bad! They are different! I only like my flag!" the boy yells. He points to his shirt. It has a flag on it. It is blue, white and red. It is from France.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They do not want the boy to hurt the flags. They love the flags. They hang on the tree. They are beautiful. They are different, but they are good.
+
+They run to the boy and try to stop him. They pull his stick. They push him away. They shout at him.
+
+"Leave the flags alone! They are not yours! They are for everyone! Different is good!" they say.
+
+The boy is surprised. He does not expect Lily and Ben to fight back. He drops his stick. He looks at the flags. He sees their colors and shapes. He thinks.
+
+Maybe they are right. Maybe different is good. Maybe he can learn from the flags. Maybe he can be friends with Lily and Ben.
+
+He smiles. He says sorry. He picks up his stick. He does not hit the flags anymore. He hangs it on the tree. He joins Lily and Ben. They play together. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and make noise. They saw a bird on a branch. The bird was blue and yellow and had a long tail.
+
+"Hello, bird!" Lily said. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The bird looked at Lily and Tom. It opened its beak and sang a song. The song was pretty and happy.
+
+"Wow, what a nice song!" Tom said. "Can you sing it again, bird?"
+
+The bird nodded and sang again. Lily and Tom clapped their hands and smiled.
+
+But then they heard a loud sound. It was thunder. They saw dark clouds in the sky. They felt drops of water on their faces. It was raining.
+
+"Oh no, it's raining!" Lily said. "We have to go inside, Tom."
+
+"What about the bird?" Tom asked. "Will it be okay in the rain?"
+
+The bird flew down from the branch and landed on Tom's shoulder. It rubbed its head against Tom's cheek. It sang a soft song. The song was gentle and calm.
+
+"Don't worry, Tom," the bird said. "I like the rain. It makes my feathers shiny and clean. And I have a nest in the tree. It is warm and cozy. I will be fine."
+
+"Okay, bird," Tom said. "Thank you for your song. We will see you later."
+
+Lily and Tom ran inside the house. They waved goodbye to the bird. The bird waved back with its wing. It flew to its nest and snuggled with its eggs. It was happy.
+Ben and Sam were best friends. They liked to play with their toys and go to the park. One day, they went to the pet shop with Sam's mom. They saw many animals, but they liked the fish the most. The fish were colorful and shiny and swam in the water.
+
+"Can we have a fish, mom?" Sam asked.
+
+"Maybe, but you have to take good care of it. Fish need food and clean water and a nice tank," Sam's mom said.
+
+Sam and Ben nodded. They wanted to be good fish owners. Sam's mom bought a fish for Sam and a fish for Ben. They were very happy.
+
+They took their fish home and put them in their tanks. They named their fish Bob and Pat. They fed them and watched them swim. They were very proud of their fish.
+
+The next day, Sam and Ben wanted to play together. Sam went to Ben's house with his fish. He knocked on the door and Ben opened it.
+
+"Hi, Sam. Hi, Bob. Come in," Ben said.
+
+They went to Ben's room and put their fish on the table. They played with their toys and had fun. They forgot about their fish.
+
+After a while, they heard a loud splash. They turned around and saw that Pat had jumped out of his tank. He was on the floor, gasping for air.
+
+"Pat!" Ben shouted. He ran to his fish and picked him up. He tried to put him back in his tank, but he dropped him. Pat fell on the floor again.
+
+"Ben, don't panic!" Sam said. He was scared, but he was also dependable. He knew what to do. He grabbed a cup and filled it with water. He gently scooped Pat with the cup and put him back in his tank. Pat started to swim again.
+
+"Thank you, Sam. You saved Pat. You are a good friend," Ben said.
+
+"You're welcome, Ben. I'm glad Pat is okay. But we have to be more careful. We have to watch our fish and not leave them alone. They need us," Sam said.
+
+Ben and Sam hugged. They learned their lesson. They promised to take good care of their fish and never forget them again. They also thanked Sam's mom for buying them the fish. They realized that having a pet is a big responsibility, but also a big joy.
+Lily and Ben were drawing with crayons on a big paper. Lily wanted to make a rainbow, but she made a mistake. She used a black crayon instead of a purple one. She was sad and tried to erase it with her eraser.
+
+"Look, Ben, my eraser is not working!" she said. "The black is still there!"
+
+Ben looked at her paper and saw the black line. He had an idea.
+
+"Maybe you need to believe in your eraser, Lily," he said. "Maybe it will work better if you say a magic word."
+
+Lily was curious. She liked magic words. She asked Ben what the magic word was.
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He wanted to help Lily, but he was also a little bit careless. He said the first word that came to his mind.
+
+"Banana!" he said. "Say banana and rub your eraser hard."
+
+Lily trusted Ben. She said banana and rubbed her eraser hard. But nothing happened. The black line was still there. She said banana again and again, but it did not work.
+
+Ben started to laugh. He thought it was funny to see Lily say banana and rub her eraser. He did not mean to be mean, but he was not very nice.
+
+Lily was angry. She realized that Ben was playing a trick on her. She did not like tricks. She felt like crying.
+
+"Ben, you are not my friend!" she said. "You are a bad boy! You lied to me!"
+
+She threw her eraser at Ben and ran away. Ben was surprised. He did not expect Lily to be so mad. He felt sorry for what he did.
+
+"Lily, wait!" he said. "I'm sorry! I was just joking! Please come back!"
+
+But Lily did not listen. She ran to her mom and told her what happened. Her mom hugged her and gave her a new eraser. She told her that Ben was wrong and that she should not believe everything he said. She also told her that sometimes people make mistakes and that she should forgive them if they say sorry.
+
+Lily felt better. She liked her new eraser. She decided to give Ben another chance. She went back to him and showed him her new eraser. She asked him if he wanted to draw with her.
+
+Ben was happy. He said sorry again and thanked Lily for being his friend. He promised to be more careful and not to lie to her again. He also said that he liked her rainbow.
+
+They hugged and smiled. They drew together and had fun. They learned to believe in themselves and in each other.
+Tim likes to play sport. He likes to run and kick and throw. He wants to play sport with his big sister, Liz. But Liz is busy. She has to do homework and chores.
+
+"Please, Liz, play with me," Tim says. He pulls her arm and shows her his ball.
+
+"Not now, Tim. I have to finish this math and then clean my room. Maybe later," Liz says. She tries to shake him off.
+
+Tim is sad. He does not want to play alone. He is persistent. He follows Liz everywhere. He asks her again and again. He makes noises and faces. He hopes she will change her mind.
+
+Liz is annoyed. She cannot concentrate on her work. She cannot relax in her room. She wishes Tim would leave her alone. She tells him to stop.
+
+"Tim, stop it! You are being very annoying. Go and play with your toys or read a book. I don't want to play sport with you right now. Maybe tomorrow," Liz says. She raises her voice and frowns.
+
+Tim is hurt. He does not understand why Liz is angry. He loves her and wants to have fun with her. He thinks she does not love him back. He starts to cry.
+
+Liz hears him cry. She feels sorry for him. She remembers when she was little and wanted to play with her older brother. She knows how it feels to be ignored and rejected. She decides to be kind to Tim.
+
+"Tim, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I love you very much. I'm just very busy and tired. How about we play sport for a little while? Just for a little while, okay? Then I have to go back to my work," Liz says. She hugs him and wipes his tears.
+
+Tim is happy. He stops crying and smiles. He thanks Liz and gives her a kiss. He grabs his ball and runs outside. He waits for Liz to join him. He is excited to play sport with his big sister. He hopes she will have fun too.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. They had a big red ball that they shared. Sometimes they kicked the ball, sometimes they threw it, and sometimes they rolled it on the grass.
+
+One day, they saw a big hole in the ground. It looked like someone had dug it with a shovel. They were curious and wanted to see what was inside. They went closer and looked down. They saw a dark tunnel that went underground.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Tom said. "Maybe there is a treasure or a monster down there!"
+
+"Let's go and find out!" Lily said. She was brave and cheerful. She grabbed the ball and jumped into the hole.
+
+"Wait for me!" Tom said. He followed her and jumped too.
+
+They landed on the dirt and saw a flashlight on the wall. They turned it on and saw the tunnel was long and narrow. They walked along the tunnel, holding the ball and the flashlight. They heard strange noises and saw shadows on the walls.
+
+They were scared, but they kept going. They wanted to see what was at the end of the tunnel.
+
+They walked and walked until they saw a bright light. They ran towards it and saw a door. They opened the door and saw a big room. There were many toys and books and pictures on the shelves. There was a table with cookies and milk. There was a sign that said "Welcome to the underground playroom!"
+
+They were surprised and happy. They dropped the ball and the flashlight and ran to the toys. They played with the dolls and the cars and the puzzles. They ate the cookies and drank the milk. They forgot about the time and the park and the hole.
+
+They were having so much fun that they did not hear the voice that said "Hello, children. I'm glad you found my playroom. I made it for you. I'm your grandfather. I live underground because I'm sick and I can't go outside. But I love you very much and I wanted to see you. I hope you like my gifts."
+
+They turned around and saw an old man with a white beard and a kind smile. He was sitting on a chair with a blanket on his lap. He looked like their daddy, but older and sicker.
+
+They were shocked and confused. They did not know they had a grandfather. They did not know he lived underground. They did not know he was sick. They did not know what to say.
+
+They looked at each other and then at the old man. They felt sorry for him and they felt happy to meet him. They ran to him and hugged him. They said "Hello, grandfather. We love you too. Thank you for the playroom. It's wonderful."
+
+They talked and laughed and played with their grandfather. They learned about his life and his stories. They told him about their life and their dreams. They felt close and happy.
+
+They did not want to separate from him. They wanted to stay with him underground. But they knew they had to go back to their daddy and mommy. They knew they had to go back to the park and the hole. They knew they had to say goodbye.
+
+They hugged their grandfather and said "We will come back soon. We will bring you more cookies and milk. We will bring you more toys and books. We will bring you more love and joy."
+
+They took the ball and the flashlight and went back to the tunnel. They walked and walked until they saw the hole. They climbed up and saw the sun and the sky. They saw their daddy and mommy waiting for them. They were worried and angry. They asked them where they had been and what they had done.
+
+They told them about the hole and the tunnel and the playroom. They told them about the toys and the cookies and the milk. They told them about their grandfather and his sickness and his love.
+
+They did not believe them. They thought they were lying or dreaming. They scolded them and took them home. They told them not to go near the hole again. They told them not to talk about the grandfather again. They told them to forget about the underground.
+
+But they did not forget. They remembered. They remembered their grandfather and his playroom. They remembered his smile and his voice. They remembered his gifts and his stories. They remembered his love and his joy.
+
+They waited for the next day. They waited for the next chance. They waited for the next adventure.
+
+They wanted to go back underground.
+Tom and Sue like to play with their ball in the park. They roll the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they roll the ball under the bridge and run to the other side. The bridge is old and ugly. It has holes and cracks and moss. Tom and Sue think it is scary.
+
+One day, they roll the ball under the bridge and hear a loud roar. They stop and look at each other. They are afraid. They hear the roar again. It sounds like a big animal. They wonder what it is. They want their ball back, but they do not want to go under the bridge.
+
+They see a shadow moving under the bridge. It is big and hairy and has sharp teeth. It is a bear! The bear has their ball. It is playing with it. It is biting it and tossing it. It does not see Tom and Sue. Tom and Sue are very scared. They want to run away, but they also want their ball.
+
+Tom whispers to Sue, "What do we do?" Sue whispers back, "I have an idea. You distract the bear, and I will get the ball." Tom says, "How do I distract the bear?" Sue says, "You make a noise. You clap your hands or shout or sing. Then the bear will look at you, and I will sneak under the bridge and grab the ball. Then we run away."
+
+Tom says, "OK, I will try. But be careful." Sue says, "You too." They nod at each other. Tom takes a deep breath and starts to clap his hands. He claps louder and louder. He shouts, "Hey, bear! Hey, bear! Look at me!" The bear hears the noise and turns his head. He sees Tom. He growls and drops the ball.
+
+Sue sees the ball. She runs under the bridge and picks it up. She runs back to Tom. She says, "I got it! I got it! Let's go!" Tom says, "Good job! Let's go!" They run away from the bridge. The bear chases them. He is angry and hungry. He wants his ball back.
+
+Tom and Sue run faster and faster. They see their mom and dad. They yell, "Help! Help! A bear! A bear!" Their mom and dad see the bear. They are shocked and scared. They grab Tom and Sue and get in the car. They drive away from the park. The bear stops and watches. He is sad and lonely. He wants his ball back. He goes back to the bridge. He hopes to find another ball. He does not like the old and ugly bridge. He thinks it is scary.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the living room. They have a toy phone and a toy camera. They like to pretend they are making videos and calls.
+
+"Hello, this is Lily and Ben. We are going to show you how to make jelly. Jelly is yummy and wobbly. You need water, a pot, a spoon and a packet of jelly. Watch us!" Lily says into the camera. She presses a button to record.
+
+Ben holds the packet of jelly and tries to open it. He pulls hard, but it does not open. He pulls harder, but it still does not open. He gets angry and throws the packet on the floor.
+
+"Ben, don't do that! You need to be careful. The jelly will spill everywhere. Let me help you." Lily says. She picks up the packet and tears it open. She pours the jelly powder into the pot.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. I'm sorry I was mad. Can I stir the water and the jelly?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, Ben. You can stir. But be gentle. Don't splash." Lily says. She fills the pot with water and puts it on the stove. She turns on the heat and watches the water boil.
+
+Ben stirs the water and the jelly with the spoon. He sees the jelly dissolve and change color. He smells the sweet and fruity aroma. He smiles and says, "Look, Lily. The jelly is ready. Can we eat it now?"
+
+"Not yet, Ben. We have to wait. The jelly has to cool down and set. We have to put it in the fridge for a while. Then we can eat it." Lily says. She turns off the heat and pours the jelly into a big bowl. She carries the bowl to the fridge and puts it inside.
+
+"Okay, Lily. We will wait. But can we watch our video now?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, Ben. We can watch our video. Let's see how we did." Lily says. She presses another button on the camera and plays the video. They see themselves talking and making jelly. They laugh and clap.
+
+"Wow, Lily. We are good at making videos. And we are good at making jelly. I can't wait to eat it. Can you?" Ben asks.
+
+"Me too, Ben. I can't wait to eat it. I bet it will be delicious. Do you want to make another video?" Lily asks.
+
+"Yes, Lily. I do. What should we make next?" Ben asks.
+
+"How about a cake? Or a pizza? Or a salad?" Lily suggests.
+
+"Let's make a cake. A cake with chocolate and sprinkles. That sounds yummy." Ben says.
+
+"Okay, Ben. Let's make a cake. But first, let's clean up our mess. We don't want to leave the pot and the spoon dirty. And we don't want to forget our jelly in the fridge." Lily says.
+
+"Okay, Lily. Let's clean up. And then let's make a cake. And then let's eat our jelly and our cake. And then let's make more videos. We have so much fun." Ben says.
+
+They hug and smile. They are happy. They are friends. They love to play. They love to record. They love to make jelly. And they love to eat it. The end.
+Tom likes to dive. He dives in the pool, he dives in the bath, he dives in the lake. He thinks diving is fun and cool. He likes to make big splashes and bubbles.
+
+One day, Tom is at home with his mom. He is bored. He has no pool, no bath, no lake. He looks around the room. He sees a chair. He has an idea.
+
+He runs to the chair. He climbs on the chair. He stands on the chair. He says, "Look, mom, I'm going to dive!" He jumps off the chair.
+
+But the chair is not a pool, not a bath, not a lake. The chair is hard and dull. The floor is hard and dull. Tom does not make a splash or a bubble. He makes a thud and a ouch.
+
+Mom hears the thud and the ouch. She runs to Tom. She hugs him and kisses him. She says, "Tom, are you okay? Diving is not for chairs. Diving is for water. Chairs are for sitting. Water is for diving."
+
+Tom nods. He says, "I'm okay, mom. I'm sorry. I was bored. I wanted to dive." He rubs his head and his knee. He says, "Chairs are dull. Water is fun."
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "I know, Tom. I know. But you have to be careful. You don't want to hurt yourself. How about we go to the park? There is a fountain there. Maybe you can dive there."
+
+Tom smiles. He says, "Yes, mom. Yes. Let's go to the park. I want to dive in the fountain. The fountain is fun and cool. Thank you, mom."
+
+Mom and Tom go to the park. Tom dives in the fountain. He makes big splashes and bubbles. He is happy. Mom watches him. She is happy too.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They had a big bag of beans that they wanted to plant. They dug some holes in the dirt and put some beans in them. Then they covered them with more dirt and watered them.
+
+"Look, we are making a bean farm!" Lily said. "Maybe we will have lots of beans to eat soon."
+
+Tom nodded. He liked beans. He liked them green, red, black, or white. He liked them in soup, salad, or pie. He liked them hot, cold, or dry.
+
+But then, a big wind came. It blew very hard and made a loud noise. It picked up the bag of beans and tore it open. The beans flew out of the bag and scattered all over the garden. Some landed on the grass, some on the flowers, some on the fence, and some on the roof.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily cried. "Our beans are gone! What will we do?"
+
+Tom looked around. He saw the beans everywhere. He thought they looked interesting. He saw some birds and squirrels come and pick up some beans. He saw some beans roll down the roof and bounce on the ground. He saw some beans shine in the sun and some hide in the shade.
+
+"Let's find them!" Tom said. "Maybe they will grow in new places. Maybe we will have a bigger bean farm than before. Maybe we will have more beans to eat than ever."
+
+Lily smiled. She liked Tom's idea. She liked to find things. She liked to explore. She liked to have fun.
+
+"OK, let's go!" Lily said. "But first, let's get a new bag."
+
+They ran to the house and got a new bag. Then they went back to the garden and started to look for the beans. They had a great time finding and collecting the beans. They also saw some new and interesting things in the garden. They saw a butterfly, a snail, a worm, and a spider. They saw a rainbow, a cloud, a star, and a moon. They saw a lot of things that made them happy and curious.
+
+They filled the new bag with beans and planted them again. They hoped they would grow and give them more beans to eat. They also hoped they would see more interesting things in the garden. They loved their bean farm and their garden. They loved each other and their adventure. They were very happy.
+Tom and Anna are playing in the park. They see a big dog. The dog is brown and has long hair. The dog is running and barking.
+
+"Look, a dog!" Tom says. "I like dogs. Can we pet him?"
+
+Anna shakes her head. "No, Tom. That dog is disgusting. He is dirty and smelly. He might bite us."
+
+Tom does not listen to Anna. He runs to the dog. He tries to touch the dog's head. The dog does not like Tom. He growls and snaps at Tom. Tom is scared. He cries.
+
+"Tom, come back!" Anna shouts. "The dog is mean. He will hurt you."
+
+Anna runs to Tom. She grabs his hand. She pulls him away from the dog. The dog chases them. They run to the gate. They shut the gate behind them. The dog cannot get out. He barks and jumps at the gate.
+
+"Are you okay, Tom?" Anna asks. She hugs Tom.
+
+Tom nods. He wipes his tears. He is sorry. He says, "You were right, Anna. That dog is disgusting. I don't like him. I like you."
+
+Anna smiles. She says, "I like you too, Tom. Next time, listen to me. I know what is good and bad."
+
+They hold hands. They walk to their mom. They tell her what happened. Mom is glad they are safe. She gives them a kiss. She says, "You are brave, Tom and Anna. But you have to be careful. Not all dogs are friendly. Some dogs are disgusting."
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their bikes. They liked to race each other and see who was faster. Sometimes Lily won, sometimes Ben won, but they always had fun.
+
+One day, they saw a new bike in the park. It was big and shiny and had a bell and a basket. Lily and Ben wanted to try it. They looked around and saw no one. They decided to examine the bike and see how it worked.
+
+They touched the bell and it made a loud sound. They touched the basket and it had some flowers and a book. They touched the pedals and the wheels and the handlebars. They thought the bike was very nice and cool.
+
+"Let's race with this bike!" Lily said. "I'll go first, then you go second."
+
+"OK," Ben said. "But be careful, it's not our bike."
+
+Lily got on the bike and started to pedal. She felt very happy and fast. She went around the park and waved at Ben. She wanted to win the race.
+
+But then, she saw a lady running towards her. The lady looked angry and scared. She shouted, "Stop! That's my bike! Give it back!"
+
+Lily felt very bad and scared. She stopped the bike and got off. She said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't know it was your bike. I just wanted to try it."
+
+The lady took the bike and looked at it. She examined it and saw that it was not broken or dirty. She sighed and said, "It's OK, I forgive you. But you shouldn't take things that are not yours. That's not nice."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I know, I'm sorry. I won't do it again."
+
+She ran back to Ben, who was waiting for her. He saw that she was miserable and sad. He said, "Don't worry, Lily. It was a mistake. You're still my best friend."
+
+He gave her a hug and said, "Let's go play with our bikes. They're not as big or shiny, but they're ours and we love them."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "OK, Ben. Let's go. And let's not race today. Let's just have fun."
+
+They got on their bikes and rode away. They were happy and glad. They learned a lesson and they still had each other.
+Lily and Ben are friends who like to play ball. They have a ball that is red and round and bounces high. They go to the park to play with their ball. They see a big field with a lot of grass and a fence.
+
+"Let's play ball here!" Ben says. He throws the ball to Lily. She catches it and throws it back.
+
+They have fun throwing and catching the ball. They run and laugh and jump. They are happy.
+
+But then, a big boy comes to the field. He has a bat and a glove and a cap. He looks at Lily and Ben and their ball.
+
+"Hey, give me that ball!" he says. He walks to them and tries to take the ball from Lily.
+
+"No, this is our ball!" Lily says. She holds the ball tight.
+
+"Give it to me! I want to play baseball!" the big boy says. He is angry and rude.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They do not want to give their ball to the big boy. They do not want to play baseball. They like their ball.
+
+"Please, go away!" Ben says. He stands next to Lily.
+
+The big boy does not listen. He grabs the ball from Lily. He runs to the fence. He puts the ball on the pitch. He holds the bat and swings.
+
+"Watch this!" he says. He hits the ball hard. The ball flies over the fence and into the street.
+
+The big boy is proud. He smiles and laughs.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They watch their ball go away. They do not have their ball anymore.
+
+"Hey, that was our ball!" Lily says. She cries.
+
+"Give it back!" Ben says. He cries too.
+
+The big boy does not care. He does not say sorry. He does not give the ball back. He walks away with his bat and his glove and his cap.
+
+Lily and Ben are left alone in the field. They have no ball. They have no fun. They are not happy.
+
+They wish the big boy was nice. They wish he was modest. They wish he did not take their ball. They wish he did not hit their ball. They wish he did not ruin their play.
+
+They hug each other and walk home. They hope to find another ball. They hope to play again. They hope to meet a kind friend. They hope to be happy.
+Lily was a little girl who loved to read books. She had many books in her room, but she always wanted more. She liked to borrow books from her friends, her teacher, and the library. She thought that books gave her wisdom, and she wanted to learn everything.
+
+One day, she saw a big book on her friend Sam's desk. It had a shiny cover and many pictures. Lily was envious of Sam. She asked him, "Can I borrow your book, please?"
+
+Sam shook his head. "No, you can't. This is my special book. My grandma gave it to me. It has stories from her country. She said it has wisdom from our ancestors. You have to be careful with it."
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She wanted to read the book too. She thought that Sam was selfish and mean. She decided to take the book when he was not looking. She put it in her backpack and ran away.
+
+But when she got home, she could not enjoy the book. She felt guilty and scared. She knew that she did something wrong. She knew that Sam would be sad and angry too. She knew that wisdom was not only in books, but also in being honest and kind. She decided to return the book to Sam and say sorry.
+
+The next day, she went to school and gave the book back to Sam. She said, "I'm sorry, Sam. I took your book without asking. I was envious of you. I know that it is your special book. I did not read it. I hope you can forgive me."
+
+Sam was surprised and happy. He said, "Thank you, Lily. I forgive you. I'm sorry too. I was not very nice to you. I know that you love books. I can share my book with you. We can read it together. Maybe we can learn some wisdom from it."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged Sam. She felt relieved and glad. She learned a lesson from her mistake. She realized that borrowing was not bad, but stealing was. She also realized that wisdom was not only in books, but also in friendship and forgiveness.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with a hive. The hive is full of bees. The bees make honey.
+
+"Can we get some honey?" Mia asks Tom.
+
+"No, we can't. The bees will sting us. They don't like us to touch their hive. It is their home," Tom says.
+
+"But I love honey. It is sweet and yummy. Please, Tom, can we try?" Mia begs.
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He likes honey too, but he is afraid of the bees. He remembers what his mom told him.
+
+"Mom said we have to be patient. Sometimes, the bees fly away to find more flowers. Then, we can get some honey. But we have to be very quiet and careful. And we have to promise not to hurt the bees or their hive. Do you promise, Mia?" Tom asks.
+
+"I promise, Tom. I don't want to hurt the bees or their hive. I just want some honey. Let's wait and see," Mia says.
+
+They sit under the tree and watch the bees. They are very patient. They wait and wait. After a while, some of the bees fly away. There are only a few bees left in the hive.
+
+"Now, we can get some honey. But we have to be very quiet and careful. And we have to keep our promise. Come on, Mia," Tom says.
+
+They tiptoe to the hive. They see a hole where the honey is. They reach out their hands. They take a little bit of honey. It is sweet and yummy. They smile.
+
+But then, they hear a buzz. The bees are coming back. They see Tom and Mia. They are angry. They fly towards them.
+
+"Run, Mia, run!" Tom shouts.
+
+They drop the honey and run away. The bees chase them. They sting them. It hurts. They cry.
+
+They run to their mom. She sees them. She is worried. She hugs them. She puts some ice on their stings. She kisses them.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. We were bad. We tried to get some honey from the bees. We broke our promise. We hurt the bees and their hive," Tom says.
+
+"I'm sorry, too, mom. We were not patient. We were greedy. We made the bees angry," Mia says.
+
+Mom sighs. She is not happy. But she loves them. She forgives them.
+
+"It's okay, Tom and Mia. I know you love honey. But you have to respect the bees and their hive. They work hard to make honey. They need it to live. You can't take it without their permission. You have to be patient. Sometimes, the bees share their honey with us. They give it to us in jars. We can buy it in the store. It is safer and easier. Do you understand?" Mom says.
+
+"Yes, mom. We understand. We are sorry. We won't do it again. We promise," Tom and Mia say.
+
+Mom smiles. She is glad. She hopes they learned their lesson. She gives them some honey in a jar. They eat it with bread. It is sweet and yummy. They thank mom. They thank the bees. They are happy.
+Ben likes to run fast. He runs every day with his dog, Spot. They run in the park, in the street, in the yard. Ben wants to run in a race. He wants to win a medal.
+
+One day, Ben sees a sign. It says, "Kids Race. Enter here." Ben is happy. He runs to the sign. He gives his name and gets a number. He puts the number on his shirt. He is ready to run.
+
+The race starts. Ben runs fast. Spot runs with him. They pass many kids. Ben sees the finish line. He runs faster. He crosses the line first. He wins the race. He is very happy.

+A man gives Ben a medal. It is shiny and round. It has a ribbon. Ben puts the medal around his neck. He smiles. He thanks the man. He looks for Spot.
+
+But Spot is not there. Spot is lost. Ben is sad. He is lonely. He wants his dog. He calls, "Spot! Spot! Where are you?"
+
+He hears a bark. He sees Spot. Spot is running to him. Spot is happy. He licks Ben's face. He wags his tail. Ben hugs Spot. He is not lonely anymore. He has his dog and his medal. He is very happy.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the kitchen. One day, they find a big knife on the table. Lily wants to hold the knife. She says, "It is shiny and sharp. I want to see it."
+
+Ben says, "No, Lily. The knife is not for playing. It can hurt you. Give it to me. I will put it away."
+
+Lily does not listen to Ben. She says, "No, Ben. It is mine. I found it first. You go away."
+
+Ben tries to take the knife from Lily. They pull and push. The knife slips from their hands. It falls on the floor. It makes a loud noise.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She comes to the kitchen. She sees the knife on the floor. She sees Lily and Ben. She is angry and scared. She says, "What are you doing? The knife is dangerous. You could have cut yourselves. You are very naughty. You do not talk to each other nicely. You do not share. You do not listen. You make me sad."
+
+Lily and Ben feel bad. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We did not mean to be naughty. We did not know the knife was dangerous. We just wanted to play. We love you, Mom."
+
+Mom hugs Lily and Ben. She says, "I love you, too. But you have to be careful and kind. The knife is for cutting food, not for playing. You have to talk to each other nicely and share. You have to listen to me and to each other. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They say, "We understand, Mom. We will be careful and kind. We will talk to each other nicely and share. We will listen to you and to each other."
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "That is good. Now, let us have some snack. I made some lemonade and cookies for you. Do you like lemonade and cookies?"
+
+Lily and Ben say, "Yes, we like lemonade and cookies. Thank you, Mom."
+
+They go to the table. They drink the lemonade. It is sour. They make funny faces. They eat the cookies. They are sweet. They smile. They are happy. They are friends.
+Lily and Tom were playing in their room. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big teddy bear. They called him Mr. Bear. They liked to hug him, dress him, and pretend he was their friend.
+
+One day, they had a new idea. They wanted to make Mr. Bear fly. They found a long scarf and tied it around his neck. Then they looked for a high place to hang him. They saw a shelf on the wall. It had some books and a lamp on it.
+
+"Let's hang Mr. Bear on the shelf!" Lily said.
+
+"OK, but be careful!" Tom said.
+
+They climbed on a chair and lifted Mr. Bear up. They tried to hang him on the shelf, but he was too big. He pushed the books and the lamp off the shelf. They fell on the floor with a loud noise.
+
+"Uh-oh!" Lily and Tom said.
+
+They heard their mom coming. She opened the door and saw the mess. She saw Mr. Bear hanging on the shelf. He looked very silly.
+
+"What are you doing?" she asked.
+
+"We wanted to make Mr. Bear fly!" Lily and Tom said.
+
+Mom smiled. She was not angry. She knew they were just having fun.
+
+"Well, Mr. Bear is too enormous to fly. He needs to stay on the ground with you. Why don't you put him on your bed and read him a story?" she said.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They took Mr. Bear down from the shelf. They hugged him and said sorry. They put him on their bed and picked a book. They read him a story about a flying bear. They imagined he was happy. They were happy too.
+Lila was a little girl who liked to go to the zoo with her mom. She loved to see all the different animals, but her favorite was the zebra. She liked how the zebra had black and white stripes all over its body. She wanted to touch the zebra and be its friend.
+
+One day, Lila and her mom went to the zoo again. They saw the zebra in its pen, eating some grass. Lila asked her mom if she could go closer to the zebra. Her mom said yes, but she had to be careful and not scare the zebra. Lila nodded and walked slowly to the fence. She reached out her hand and said, "Hello, zebra. I like you. Can I pet you?"
+
+The zebra looked at Lila and saw her hand. It was curious and came closer to the fence. It sniffed Lila's hand and licked it with its tongue. Lila giggled and said, "You have a wet tongue, zebra. It feels funny." She stroked the zebra's nose and smiled. The zebra liked Lila and nuzzled her hand.
+
+Lila was happy and said, "You are a nice zebra. I want to give you a treat. Do you like apples?" She looked at her mom and asked, "Mom, can I give the zebra an apple?" Her mom said yes and gave her an apple from her bag. Lila took the apple and broke it in half. She gave one half to the zebra and kept the other half for herself. She said, "Here, zebra. This is for you. It is sweet and juicy. I hope you like it."
+
+The zebra took the apple half from Lila's hand and bit into it. It chewed and swallowed and made a happy sound. It liked the apple and wanted more. It looked at Lila and saw that she had the other half. It reached out its neck and tried to take the apple half from Lila's hand. Lila was surprised and said, "Hey, zebra. That is mine. You already had yours. You can't have mine too. That is not fair."
+
+The zebra did not listen and grabbed the apple half from Lila's hand. It ate it quickly and licked its lips. Lila was sad and angry. She said, "Bad zebra. You are greedy. You took my apple. You are not my friend anymore. You are a mean zebra." She turned away from the zebra and ran to her mom. She hugged her mom and cried.
+
+Her mom hugged her back and said, "I'm sorry, Lila. The zebra was rude. It should not have taken your apple. It did not know how to share. It did not mean to hurt you. It just wanted to gain more food. But you are right. It was not fair. You can have another apple if you want. And you can still be friends with the zebra if you want. Maybe the zebra will learn to be nicer next time."
+
+Lila looked at her mom and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. You are the best mom. Can I have another apple, please?" Her mom said yes and gave her another apple. Lila smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. I love apples. They are sweet and juicy. Not like the zebra's tongue. The zebra's tongue was bitter and yucky. I don't like the zebra's tongue. I don't want to pet the zebra anymore. I want to see the other animals. Can we see the other animals, mom?" Her mom said yes and said, "Sure, Lila. Let's go see the other animals. Maybe you will find a new favorite animal. Maybe you will find a nice animal that will share with you. Come on, let's go." Lila nodded and said, "Okay, mom. Let's go. Bye, zebra. Maybe you will be nicer next time." She waved at the zebra and followed her mom to see the other animals. She was happy again.
+Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play together every day. They liked to pretend they were grown-ups and do things like cook, drive and work.
+
+One day, they decided to play marry. They found some old clothes and a ring in Lily's mom's closet. They put them on and went to the hall. The hall was big and green. It had many chairs and a stage.
+
+Lily and Tom walked to the stage. They held hands and smiled. They saw Lily's mom and dad and Tom's mom and dad sitting in the chairs. They waved to them.
+
+"Hello, everyone!" Lily said. "We are here to marry. Tom is my husband and I am his wife. We love each other very much."
+
+"Yes, we do!" Tom said. "Lily is the best friend I ever had. She is smart and kind and funny. We will be happy together forever."
+
+They put the ring on each other's finger. They kissed on the cheek. They heard everyone clap and cheer.
+
+"Yay, Lily and Tom!" Lily's mom said. "You are so cute and sweet. We are very proud of you."
+
+"Thank you, mom!" Lily said. "Can we have cake now?"
+
+"Of course, dear!" Lily's mom said. "Let's go to the kitchen and celebrate."
+
+Lily and Tom ran to the kitchen. They saw a big cake with their names on it. It was green, too. They cut a slice and shared it. They hugged and laughed.
+
+They were very happy. They had the best play marry ever.
+Lily was a little bunny who liked to wander in the garden. She loved to nibble on the green leaves and the juicy carrots that grew there. But one day, she saw a big fence around the garden. She could not get in.
+
+"Who put this fence here?" she asked her friend, Max, who was a mouse. "It is not fair. I want to eat the carrots."
+
+Max looked troubled. He said, "The farmer put the fence here. He does not want us to eat his carrots. He has a big dog who barks at us. We have to be careful."
+
+Lily felt sad. She wanted to eat the carrots so much. She looked around and saw a small hole under the fence. She said, "Maybe I can squeeze through this hole. I will be quick and quiet. The dog will not see me."
+
+Max shook his head. He said, "No, Lily, that is too risky. The hole is too small for you. You might get stuck. And the dog might hear you. He is very fast and fierce. He will chase you and bite you. Please, Lily, do not go."
+
+But Lily did not listen. She was too hungry and curious. She said, "I will be fine, Max. Do not worry. I will be back soon." She pushed her nose through the hole and wriggled her body. She made it to the other side of the fence. She saw the carrots shining in the sun. She ran towards them.
+
+But she did not see the dog sleeping under a tree. He heard her footsteps and opened his eyes. He saw her running and he growled. He got up and ran after her. He barked loudly.
+
+Lily heard the bark and turned around. She saw the dog coming. She was scared. She dropped the carrot she had picked and ran back to the hole. She tried to squeeze through, but she was too big. She was stuck.
+
+She cried, "Help, help, Max, help me!"
+
+Max heard her cry and ran to the fence. He saw her stuck and the dog behind her. He was brave. He bit the fence and made the hole bigger. He pulled Lily out. They ran away from the dog.
+
+They were safe, but they were hurt. Lily had scratches on her fur and Max had a sore tooth. They hugged each other and said, "I am sorry, I am sorry, I should have listened to you, you are a good friend."
+
+They learned their lesson. They never wandered in the garden again. They found other food to eat. They were happy and grateful.
+Tom and Lily love to create things with sand. They go to the beach with their mom and dad. They bring buckets and shovels and molds. They make castles and towers and animals.
+
+"Look at my surf!" Tom says. He makes a big wave with sand and puts a toy shark on it. "It is scary and fast!"
+
+"Look at my surf!" Lily says. She makes a small wave with sand and puts a toy dolphin on it. "It is calm and friendly!"
+
+Tom and Lily start to argue. They think their surf is better than the other's. They push and pull and yell.
+
+"Stop!" their mom says. "You are both creative and smart. You can make different kinds of surf. There is no need to fight."
+
+Tom and Lily feel sorry. They hug and say sorry. They decide to make a big surf together. They put both the shark and the dolphin on it. They say it is scary and friendly and fun. They smile and play.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. But today, they are bored. They do not want to play with their toys or read their books.
+
+"Let's watch the wall," Anna says. She points to the wall near their bed. The wall has many stickers and drawings. They are colorful and cheerful.
+
+"OK," Ben says. He follows Anna to the wall. They sit on the floor and look at the wall.
+
+They see a sticker of a cat. The cat is black and white. It has a red bow on its head. "Meow," Anna says. She pretends to be the cat.
+
+They see a drawing of a car. The car is blue and shiny. It has four wheels and a horn. "Beep beep," Ben says. He pretends to drive the car.

+Tommy liked to play with his ball. He would throw it high in the air and catch it again. Sometimes he would throw it to his parent and they would throw it back. He thought this was a normal game that all kids played.
+
+One day, he went to the park with his parent. He saw some other kids playing with their balls. He wanted to join them. He ran to them and said, "Hi, can I play with you?"
+
+The other kids looked at him and his ball. They laughed and said, "No, you can't. Your ball is too small and too soft. You can't throw it far or fast. You need a big and hard ball like ours. Your ball is for babies."
+
+Tommy felt sad and angry. He did not like the other kids. He thought they were mean and rude. He picked up his ball and threw it at them. He wanted to make them stop laughing. He wanted to show them that his ball was good.
+
+But his ball did not hit them. It flew over their heads and landed on a tree. Tommy could not reach it. He started to cry. He lost his ball. He wished he had not thrown it.
+
+His parent saw what happened. They came to him and hugged him. They said, "It's okay, Tommy. Don't cry. We will get your ball back. We love you and your ball. It doesn't matter what the other kids say. Your ball is perfect for you. You can play with it however you want. You are a normal and happy kid."
+Lily was a gifted girl who loved to tell stories. She had many books with pictures and words that she could read by herself. She liked to imagine that she was in different countries, like the ones she saw on the map.
+
+One day, she decided to tell a story to her little brother, Ben, who was only two years old. She took him to her room and showed him a book with a big castle on the cover.
+
+"Ben, do you want to hear a story about a princess and a dragon?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, yes!" Ben said, clapping his hands.
+
+"Okay, listen. Once upon a time, there was a princess who lived in a big castle in a faraway country. She was very beautiful and kind, but she was very lonely. She had no friends to play with, because the castle was surrounded by a forest with a scary dragon. The dragon would roar and breathe fire, and scare away anyone who came near. The princess wished she could see the world and make friends, but she was afraid of the dragon."
+
+"What did she do?" Ben asked, wide-eyed.
+
+"Well, one day, she saw a bird flying in the sky. She thought the bird was very brave and free, and she wanted to talk to it. So she opened the window and called out, 'Hello, bird! Can you be my friend?' The bird heard her and flew down to the window. He was very friendly and curious, and he said, 'Hello, princess! I can be your friend. I can tell you stories about the world and the other countries. Do you want to hear them?' The princess was very happy and said, 'Yes, please! Tell me everything!' So the bird and the princess became friends, and every day, the bird would tell her stories about the different places and people he had seen. The princess learned a lot and felt less lonely. She also gave the bird some seeds and water as a gift, and the bird was very grateful."
+
+"Did the dragon find out?" Ben asked, worried.
+
+Lily smiled and said, "You'll have to wait and see. That's the end of the first part of the story. Do you like it?"
+
+Ben nodded and said, "I like it! It's a good story. Can you tell me more tomorrow?"
+
+Lily hugged him and said, "Of course I can. You're a good listener. Now, let's go and have some cookies and milk. Come on, follow me."
+
+They left the room and went to the kitchen, where their mom was waiting for them with a smile. She was proud of her gifted daughter, who could tell such wonderful stories, and of her sweet son, who could enjoy them. She gave them both a kiss and said, "You're both very special to me. I love you."
+Lily and Ben were friends. They liked to play near the river. One day, they saw a big raft on the water. It had a rope and a stick.
+
+"Let's go on the raft!" Lily said. "It looks fun!"
+
+"OK!" Ben said. "But we have to be careful. The water is fast."
+
+They took off their shoes and socks. They held the rope and walked to the raft. They climbed on the raft. They used the stick to push the raft away from the shore.
+
+"We are on a raft!" Lily said. "We are like pirates!"
+
+"Arrr!" Ben said. "We are ready for adventure!"
+
+They laughed and waved to the birds and the trees. They did not see the big rock in the water. The raft hit the rock. The raft broke. Lily and Ben fell into the water.
+
+"Help!" Lily said. "I can't swim!"
+
+"Me neither!" Ben said. "Grab the rope!"
+
+They tried to grab the rope, but it was too far. The water was too strong. They screamed and cried. No one heard them. No one helped them. They sank under the water. They did not come up again.
+Sara and Tom were twins who liked to play near the harbor. They loved to watch the big boats and the fish and the birds. Sometimes they found rare shells and stones on the sand. They always shared their treasures with each other.
+
+One day, they saw a shiny red ball floating on the water. They both wanted it very much. They ran to the edge of the harbor and reached out their hands. But the ball was too far away. They needed something to get it.
+
+Sara saw a long stick lying on the ground. She picked it up and tried to poke the ball with it. But the stick was too short. She got angry and threw the stick away.
+
+Tom saw a rope hanging from a boat. He grabbed it and swung it over the water. He tried to catch the ball with it. But the rope was too loose. He got frustrated and pulled the rope harder.
+
+But the rope was not just a rope. It was a rope that held the boat to the harbor. When Tom pulled the rope, he made the boat move. The boat bumped into another boat. The other boat bumped into another boat. Soon, all the boats were crashing and making loud noises.
+
+The people on the boats were very scared and angry. They shouted at Tom and Sara. They said they were bad children who caused trouble. They said they had to pay for the damage. They said they had to go away and never come back.
+
+Tom and Sara were very sad and scared. They dropped the rope and the stick. They ran away from the harbor. They did not get the shiny red ball. They did not find any more rare shells or stones. They did not play near the harbor anymore. They only had each other to squeeze and hug.
+Lily and Max were having lunch with their mom and dad. They had cheese, bread, salad and olives. Lily liked olives, but Max did not. He thought they were yucky and bitter.
+
+"Can I have your olives, Max?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, they are mine. You have your own," Max said. He was grumpy because he did not want to eat them, but he did not want to share them either.
+
+Lily was sad. She loved olives and wanted more. She had an idea. She took a fork and poked an olive from Max's plate.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Max shouted. He poked Lily back with his fork.
+
+"Ow, that hurts!" Lily cried. She poked Max again with her fork.
+
+"Ow, stop it!" Max yelled. He poked Lily harder with his fork.
+
+"Stop, stop, stop!" Mom and dad said. They took the forks away from Lily and Max. They were not happy.
+
+"Why are you poking each other with forks? That is not nice. That is dangerous. You could hurt each other," mom said.
+
+"Sorry, mom. Sorry, dad," Lily and Max said. They felt bad.
+
+"Lily, why did you poke Max's olive?" dad asked.
+
+"Because I like olives and he does not. He did not want to give me any," Lily said.
+
+"Max, why did you poke Lily back?" mom asked.
+
+"Because she took my olive. It was mine. She has her own," Max said.
+
+Mom and dad looked at each other. They had an idea.
+
+"How about this? Lily, you can have Max's olives, but you have to give him something in return. Something that he likes and you do not. Max, you can give Lily your olives, but you have to get something in return. Something that you like and she does not. That way, you can both be happy and fair. What do you think?" dad said.
+
+Lily and Max thought about it. They nodded.
+
+"OK, I will give you my olives, but you have to give me your cheese. I love cheese and you do not," Max said.
+
+"OK, I will give you my cheese, but you have to give me your olives. I love olives and you do not," Lily said.
+
+They swapped their food. They smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. Thank you, Max. That was very nice of you. You are good siblings. Now, enjoy your lunch and no more poking," mom said.
+
+"OK, mom. OK, dad. We love you," Lily and Max said.
+
+They ate their lunch. They were happy. They did not poke each other anymore.
+Lily liked to dress up in her mom's clothes. She thought they were pretty and fun. She liked to wear big hats, long dresses and shiny shoes. She liked to pretend she was a princess or a star.
+
+One day, she found a new dress in her mom's closet. It was red and sparkly, with a lot of frills. Lily thought it was the most beautiful dress ever. She wanted to try it on and show it to her dad. She put it on over her pajamas and ran downstairs.
+
+But when she got to the living room, she saw her mom and dad looking angry. They were holding a pair of scissors and a piece of cloth. Lily realized they had cut the dress to make it smaller. They had ruined it!
+
+"What have you done, Lily?" her mom asked. "This was my new dress for the party. It was very expensive and special. You can't just wear it like that. You have no style!"
+
+Lily felt sad and scared. She didn't mean to make her mom mad. She just liked the dress. She wanted to make her mom happy. She started to cry.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. I didn't know. I thought it was pretty. I wanted to be like you. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+Her dad saw her tears and felt sorry for her. He put down the scissors and hugged her.
+
+"It's okay, Lily. We're not mad at you. We're just upset that you took the dress without asking. It was not yours to wear. You have to be careful with other people's things. You have to ask before you touch them."
+
+He looked at the dress and sighed.
+
+"Besides, this dress was too big for you. It was enormous. You would have suffered if you wore it to the party. You would have tripped and fallen. You would have been uncomfortable and unhappy. You don't need this dress to be pretty. You are pretty just the way you are."
+
+He kissed her on the cheek and smiled.
+
+"Why don't you go upstairs and change into your own clothes? Then we can play a game or read a book together. How does that sound?"
+
+Lily nodded and wiped her eyes. She still liked the dress, but she understood why her mom and dad were angry. She said sorry again and ran upstairs. She hoped they would forgive her and love her. She hoped they would still go to the party and have fun. She hoped they would find another dress that was not enormous, but just right.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play outside. One day, it was very rainy and they could not go out. Lily was sad and bored. She looked out the window and saw a poor man walking in the rain. He had no coat or umbrella and he was very wet.
+
+"Look, Tom, that man is poor and cold. He needs an umbrella," Lily said.
+
+"Maybe we can send him one," Tom said. "We have two umbrellas, one for you and one for me. We can share one and give the other one to him."
+
+Lily liked Tom's idea. She took her pink umbrella and ran outside. She called to the man and gave him the umbrella. The man smiled and thanked her. He opened the umbrella and walked away.
+
+Lily ran back inside and hugged Tom. They shared Tom's blue umbrella and looked out the window. They saw a rainbow in the sky.
+
+"See, Lily, we did a good thing. We helped the poor man and now we have a rainbow," Tom said.
+
+"Yes, Tom, we did. We are good friends and we are happy," Lily said.
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: Sharing and helping others can make us happy and bring us good luck.
+
+Foreshadowing or setup and payoff: The rain and the poor man set up the problem and the conflict. The umbrellas and the rainbow pay off the solution and the resolution.
+Lily was sick. She had a hot head and a sore throat. Mommy gave her some juice and a thermometer. The thermometer was a stick that could tell how hot Lily was.
+
+"Put this in your mouth and wait a little bit," Mommy said. "Then I can see if you need some medicine."
+
+Lily nodded and put the thermometer in her mouth. She lay down on the couch and watched some cartoons. She felt sleepy and closed her eyes.
+
+After a while, Mommy came back and looked at the thermometer. But it was not in Lily's mouth anymore. It was on the floor, next to a huge teddy bear.
+
+"Lily, where is the thermometer?" Mommy asked.
+
+Lily opened her eyes and saw Mommy. She forgot about the thermometer. She looked around and saw it on the floor.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mommy. I forgot," Lily said. "I was sleepy and the teddy bear was cuddly."
+
+Mommy sighed and picked up the thermometer. She wiped it with a tissue and put it back in Lily's mouth.
+
+"It's okay, Lily. But you have to keep it in your mouth until it beeps. Then I can see how hot you are and help you feel better," Mommy said.
+
+Lily nodded and held the thermometer in her mouth. She hugged the teddy bear and hoped she would not forget again. She wanted to feel better soon.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They saw a big truck near the fence. The truck had a picture of a gorilla on it.
+
+"Look, a gorilla!" Ben said. "I want to see it!"
+
+"Me too!" Anna said. They ran to the truck and peeked inside. They saw a big cage with a big gorilla. The gorilla was sleeping. He looked very ordinary.
+
+"Hello, gorilla!" Anna said. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The gorilla opened his eyes and looked at Anna and Ben. He made a loud noise. He was not happy. He wanted to get out of the cage.
+
+"Go away, kids!" a man said. He came out of the truck. He was wearing a hat and a jacket. He was the gorilla's keeper. "This gorilla is not for playing. He is for the zoo. I have to put him in the zoo."
+
+"Why?" Ben asked. "Can't he stay with us?"
+
+"No, he can't," the man said. "He is not a pet. He is a wild animal. He needs a big space and other gorillas. The zoo is better for him."
+
+Anna and Ben felt sad. They liked the gorilla. They wanted to be his friends.
+
+"Can we visit him at the zoo?" Anna asked.
+
+"Sure, you can," the man said. "The zoo is not far from here. You can come and see him anytime. He will be happy to see you."
+
+"Okay," Anna and Ben said. They waved goodbye to the gorilla. The gorilla waved back. He was not so ordinary after all. He was very nice.
+Tom and Lily are friends who like to play in the snow. They have a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They also have a toy penguin that they pretend is their pet. They call him Pingo.
+
+One day, a big dog comes to the snowman and barks. He wants to take the hat and the scarf. Tom and Lily are scared and run away. But they forget Pingo. The dog sees Pingo and thinks he is a real penguin. He grabs him with his teeth and runs away.
+
+"Help! Help!" Pingo cries. "The dog has me!"
+
+Tom and Lily hear Pingo and feel sorry. They love Pingo and want him back. They follow the dog's tracks in the snow. They see the dog near a big tree. He is playing with Pingo and making him dirty.
+
+"Hey, dog!" Tom shouts. "Give us back our penguin!"
+
+The dog looks at Tom and Lily and growls. He does not want to share Pingo. He thinks Pingo is his toy.
+
+"No, he is ours!" Lily says. "We made him and we named him. He is our loyal friend!"
+
+Tom and Lily are brave and run to the dog. They try to take Pingo from his mouth. The dog is strong and pulls back. He shakes his head and makes Pingo fly in the air.
+
+"Watch out!" Tom says. He jumps and catches Pingo. He hugs him and feels his soft fur.
+
+"Are you okay, Pingo?" Lily asks. She runs to Tom and helps him. She wipes Pingo's face and fixes his eyes.
+
+"Yes, I am okay," Pingo says. "Thank you for saving me. You are the best friends ever!"
+
+Tom and Lily smile and kiss Pingo. They are happy and proud. They have saved their penguin. They hold him tight and walk back to the snowman. The dog watches them and feels sad. He has lost his toy. He barks and runs away.
+Tim and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with their toys and eat snacks. But they had to be obedient and listen to their mom. She told them not to touch the butter in the fridge. She said it was for the cake she was baking for dad's birthday.
+
+One day, mom went to the store to buy some candles and frosting. She said she would be back soon and told the boys to be good. Tim and Sam nodded and said yes, mom. But as soon as she left, Tim had a bad idea. He said to Sam, "Let's steal some butter and eat it. It's yummy and creamy. Mom won't notice."
+
+Sam was scared. He said, "No, Tim. That's wrong. Mom said not to touch the butter. She will be mad at us. And dad won't have a nice cake." But Tim did not listen. He said, "Don't be a baby. It's just a little butter. Come on, it will be fun." He opened the fridge and took out the butter. He cut a big slice and gave half to Sam. He said, "Here, try it. It's delicious."
+
+Sam took the butter and put it in his mouth. He did not like it. It was cold and greasy and salty. He spit it out and said, "Yuck! This is gross. I don't want it." He threw the butter in the trash. Tim laughed and said, "You're silly. I love it. I'm going to eat more." He cut another slice and ate it. He smiled and said, "Mmm, this is the best."
+
+But then, they heard the door open. It was mom. She came back early. She saw the boys and the butter and the trash. She was angry. She said, "What are you doing? Did you steal the butter? How could you? You were not obedient. You disobeyed me. You ruined the cake. You made a mess. You are in big trouble."
+
+Tim and Sam felt bad. They knew they did something wrong. They said, "We're sorry, mom. We won't do it again. Please forgive us." Mom sighed and said, "You should be sorry. You have to learn to be honest and respectful. You have to help me clean up and make a new cake. And you have to apologize to dad. Maybe then, he will still love you." Tim and Sam nodded and said, "Yes, mom. We love you and dad. We will be good." They hugged mom and said, "We're sorry, mom. We're sorry."
+Bella and Ben were bored. They wanted to play outside, but it was raining. They looked out the window and saw a big puddle on the porch. They had an idea.
+
+"Let's bounce in the puddle!" Bella said.
+
+"OK!" Ben said.
+
+They put on their boots and coats and ran to the porch. They jumped and splashed and laughed. The water was cold and wet, but they did not care. They had fun.
+
+"Look at me!" Bella said. She bounced as high as she could. She made a big splash.
+
+"Wow, that was impressive!" Ben said. He tried to bounce as high as Bella. He made a smaller splash.
+
+"Try again!" Bella said. She bounced again.
+
+They bounced and bounced until they were tired. They went back inside. They took off their boots and coats and dried themselves. They were happy.
+
+"Did you have fun?" Mom asked.
+
+"Yes, we did!" Bella and Ben said.
+
+They hugged Mom and told her about their bouncing adventure. Mom smiled and gave them a snack. They ate and drank and told more stories. They were not bored anymore. They were glad.
+Tom likes to watch films on his big TV. He has many films that he can choose from. He likes films with cars, animals and superheroes. Sometimes he watches films with his mom and dad, and sometimes he watches films with his friends.
+
+One day, Tom wants to watch a new film that he got for his birthday. It is a film about a small mouse that goes on an adventure. Tom is very excited to see the film. He asks his mom to help him put the film in the TV. His mom says yes and takes the film out of the box.
+
+But when his mom tries to put the film in the TV, she sees that there is something on the film. It is a sticky sticker that someone put on the film. His mom says that they have to remove the sticker before they can watch the film. She tries to peel off the sticker, but it is very hard. She pulls and pulls, but the sticker does not come off.
+
+Tom is sad and angry. He wants to watch the film now. He does not like the sticker. He thinks that the sticker is bad and mean. He wonders who put the sticker on his film. He thinks that maybe it was his sister, who likes to play tricks on him. He decides to go and ask his sister.
+
+He runs to his sister's room and knocks on the door. He hears his sister say "Who is it?" He says "It is me, Tom. I have a question for you." He opens the door and sees his sister sitting on her bed. She is holding a film in her hand. It is the same film that Tom wants to watch. It is the film about the small mouse. And it does not have a sticker on it.
+Lily and Sam are friends. They like to play together. One day, they go to Lily's house. Lily has a new toy. It is a blue music box. It can play different songs.
+
+"Look at my toy!" Lily says. "It is very pretty and fun. Do you want to watch it?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Sam says. He likes music too. He sits next to Lily on the floor. Lily turns the key. The music box starts to play a song. It has a ballerina that spins around.
+
+"Wow, that is nice!" Sam says. He claps his hands. He wants to touch the ballerina.
+
+"Wait, don't touch it!" Lily says. She pulls the music box away from Sam. "It is mine. You can only watch it."
+
+"But I want to play with it too!" Sam says. He feels sad and angry. He tries to grab the music box from Lily.
+
+"No, stop it!" Lily says. She holds the music box tight. "You will break it!"
+
+They start to fight over the music box. They pull and push and shout. The music box falls to the ground. It breaks into pieces. The ballerina stops spinning. The song stops playing.
+
+They both look at the broken music box. They feel sorry and scared. They don't know what to do.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Sam says. "I didn't mean to break your toy."
+
+"I'm sorry, Sam," Lily says. "I should have shared with you."
+
+They hug each other. They are still friends. They decide to tell Lily's mom what happened. They hope she can fix the music box. They promise to be more careful and kind next time.
+Sara was sad. She had a big cut on her knee. It hurt a lot. She cried and cried. Mom came and gave her a hug. She said, "Don't worry, Sara. Your cut will heal soon. You are brave and strong."
+
+Mom took Sara to the kitchen. She washed the cut with water and put a band-aid on it. She said, "There, now it's better. How about some hot chocolate to make you feel warm and cozy?" Sara nodded. She liked hot chocolate.
+
+Mom poured some hot chocolate into a mug. She gave it to Sara. Sara smiled. She took a sip. It was yummy. She said, "Thank you, Mom. You are the best."
+
+Mom smiled back. She said, "You're welcome, Sara. I love you very much." She looked at the mug. It was dirty. It had some chocolate stains on it. She said, "Sara, can you do me a favor? Can you wash the mug after you finish your drink? It's good to be clean and tidy."
+
+Sara nodded. She said, "Yes, Mom. I can do that. It's good to be helpful and polite." She drank the rest of her hot chocolate. She felt better. She took the mug to the sink. She washed it with soap and water. She dried it with a towel. She put it back on the shelf. She said, "There, now it's clean. I did it, Mom."
+
+Mom hugged her. She said, "I'm proud of you, Sara. You are a good girl. You know how to heal your wound and your mug. You are a good example for others." Sara beamed. She said, "Thank you, Mom. You are a good example for me." They hugged again. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were fairies and had magic wings. They flew around the flowers and the trees, making wishes and laughing.
+
+"Look, Lily, a big book!" Tom said, pointing to a thick book on the grass. It had a picture of a fairy on the cover. "Maybe it has stories about fairies!"
+
+"Let's see!" Lily said, flying over to the book. She opened it and saw many words and pictures inside. "Wow, it looks so pretty!"
+
+They tried to read the words, but they were too hard. They only knew some of the letters. They looked at the pictures and made up their own stories.
+
+"This fairy is called Rose. She lives in a rose bush and helps the bees make honey," Lily said, pointing to a pink fairy.
+
+"This fairy is called Jack. He lives in a beanstalk and plays with the birds and the clouds," Tom said, pointing to a green fairy.
+
+They discussed their stories and asked each other questions. They had fun imagining what the fairies did and said.
+
+"Tom, Lily, time for lunch!" their mom called from the house.
+
+"OK, mom!" they said, closing the book. They flew back to the house, holding hands. They decided to keep the book and read more stories later. They loved fairies and books.
+Lily was very happy. It was her birthday. She had a big cake with pink frosting and four candles. She had many friends and toys to play with. She wanted to open her presents.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Ben, her brother, was upset. He did not like to share his toys. He saw Lily's new doll and wanted it. He grabbed it from her hands and ran away.
+
+Lily cried. She ran after Ben and shouted, "Give it back! It is mine! It is my birthday!"
+
+Ben did not listen. He ran to his room and locked the door. He tried to play with the doll, but it was too hard. He pulled its hair and arms. He heard a loud snap. He broke the doll's head.
+
+Lily knocked on the door. She heard the snap. She was very sad. She said, "Ben, you are mean! You broke my doll! You ruined my birthday!"
+
+Ben felt sorry. He opened the door and saw Lily's tears. He gave her the doll and said, "I am sorry, Lily. I was bad. I did not mean to break your doll. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Lily looked at the doll. She saw its broken head. She was still sad, but she loved her brother. She said, "I forgive you, Ben. But you have to be nice. You have to share your toys. And you have to help me fix my doll."
+
+Ben nodded. He hugged Lily and said, "I will, Lily. I will be nice. I will share my toys. And I will help you fix your doll. Happy birthday, Lily. I love you."
+
+Lily smiled. She hugged Ben and said, "I love you too, Ben. Thank you for saying sorry. Let's go and have some cake."
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big bird with a shiny wing. The bird was sitting on a bench next to a wealthy lady. The lady had a lot of jewels and a fur coat.
+
+"Wow, look at that bird!" Lily said. "It has a golden wing! I want to touch it!"
+
+"No, Lily, don't!" Max said. "The lady might get angry. And the bird might bite you!"
+
+But Lily did not listen. She ran to the bench and reached for the bird's wing. The bird did not like that. It squawked and pecked at Lily's hand. Lily cried out in pain and ran back to Max.
+
+The lady was also not happy. She stared at Lily and Max with a mean face. She yelled at them and said they were bad children. She said they should not touch her bird. She said her bird was very special and expensive.
+
+Lily and Max felt scared and sorry. They said they were sorry to the lady and the bird. They said they did not mean to hurt them. They said they just wanted to see the golden wing.
+
+The lady did not accept their apology. She said they should go away and leave her alone. She said she did not like children. She said they were noisy and rude.
+
+Lily and Max ran away from the bench. They felt sad and hurt. They did not understand why the lady was so mean. They did not think the bird was very special. They thought the bird was lonely and unhappy.
+
+They decided to play somewhere else. They found a friendly dog who liked to chase a ball. They had fun with the dog and forgot about the lady and the bird. They thought the dog was more special than the bird. They thought the dog was happy and loved.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play outside. One day, they found a big snowman in the park. It had a hat, a scarf, a carrot nose and two buttons for eyes. Tim and Sam thought it was funny and wanted to touch it.
+
+They ran to the snowman and started to poke it with their fingers. They felt how cold and hard it was. They pulled the scarf and the hat off the snowman. They took the carrot nose and the buttons and put them in their pockets. They laughed and said they were making the snowman look silly.
+
+But then, the sun came out and shone on the snowman. The snowman started to melt. It became smaller and smaller. It lost its shape and turned into a puddle of water. Tim and Sam saw what they had done and felt sorry. They tried to put the scarf and the hat and the carrot and the buttons back on the snowman, but it was too late. The snowman was gone.
+
+They heard a voice behind them. It was the old man who lived near the park. He had made the snowman for the children to enjoy. He saw how Tim and Sam had ruined his snowman and he was angry. He said, "Why did you do that? You were mean and selfish. You did not think about how the snowman felt or how I felt. You only thought about yourselves. You should be ashamed."
+
+Tim and Sam felt very bad. They looked at the old man and said, "We are sorry. We did not mean to hurt you or the snowman. We were just playing. We did not know it would melt so fast. We wanted to have fun, but we were wrong. Please forgive us."
+
+The old man saw that they were sincere and he softened. He said, "I forgive you, but you must learn to respect other people's things and feelings. You must not take or break what is not yours. You must not laugh at what is different or beautiful. You must be kind and gentle. That is how you make friends and have real fun."
+
+Tim and Sam nodded and said, "We understand. We will try to be better. Thank you for teaching us." They gave the old man the scarf and the hat and the carrot and the buttons. They said they were sorry again and hugged him. Then they went home, feeling heavy in their palms and in their hearts. They had learned a lesson that day. They had learned to be careful with the snowman.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the farm. They liked to run and jump and see the animals. They saw cows and pigs and chickens and horses. They were happy.
+
+But then they saw something unusual. It was big and loud and had a long nose. It was a tractor. It was working in the field of wheat. It was cutting the wheat and making it into bales.
+
+Tom and Lily were curious. They wanted to see the tractor closer. They ran towards the field of wheat. They did not see the fence. They did not hear the farmer.
+
+The farmer saw them. He was angry. He shouted at them. He said they were naughty and dangerous. He said the tractor could hurt them. He said they had to go back to the house.
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They did not like the farmer. They did not like the tractor. They did not like the wheat. They turned around and ran back to the house. They cried and hugged each other. They said they were sorry. They said they would not go to the field of wheat again. They learned their lesson.
+Lily and Max were at the park with their mom. They saw a big slide that looked fun. They ran to the slide and took turns going down. Whee! They laughed and shouted.
+
+"Can I go again, mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, honey. But be careful, okay?" Mom said.
+
+Lily climbed up the slide and sat down. She was about to slide when she saw something interesting. There was a bag of popcorn on the slide. Someone must have left it there. Lily loved popcorn. She reached for the bag and opened it.
+
+"Look, Max! Popcorn!" Lily said.
+
+"Wow! Can I have some?" Max said.
+
+He ran up the slide and joined Lily. They started to eat the popcorn. It was yummy and crunchy. They forgot about sliding.
+
+Mom saw them and smiled. She walked to the slide and said, "Hey, you two. Are you enjoying the popcorn?"
+
+"Yes, mom. It's delicious!" Lily and Max said.
+
+"Who do you think left it here?" Mom asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe a bird?" Lily said.
+
+"Or a squirrel?" Max said.
+
+"Or maybe a fairy?" Mom said.
+
+They all giggled. Mom said, "Well, whoever left it, they were very nice. But we should share some with the other kids, don't you think?"
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They took the bag of popcorn and slid down the slide. They gave some popcorn to the other kids and made some new friends. They had a lot of fun at the park. They thanked the popcorn fairy and went home with mom.
+Tim and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with many roots. The roots are brown and hard. They look like snakes.
+
+"Wow, look at the roots!" Tim says. "They are so big and long!"
+
+"Can we touch them?" Sue asks. "Maybe they are soft and nice."
+
+They go near the tree and touch the roots. They are not soft and nice. They are rough and scratchy. They hurt their hands.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tim and Sue say. "The roots are bad! They are mean!"
+
+They run away from the tree and sit on the grass. They are sad and angry.
+
+"Why are the roots so bad?" Sue asks. "Why do they hurt us?"
+
+"I don't know," Tim says. "Maybe they are poor. Maybe they have no friends. Maybe they are lonely."
+
+"Maybe they are," Sue says. "But they should not be mean. They should be kind."
+
+They look at the tree and the roots. They feel sorry for them.
+
+"Maybe we can be their friends," Tim says. "Maybe we can make them happy."
+
+"Maybe we can," Sue says. "But how?"
+
+They think and think. Then they have an idea.
+
+They go to the tree and the roots again. They are careful and gentle. They do not touch them. They talk to them.
+
+"Hello, tree. Hello, roots," Tim says. "We are Tim and Sue. We are your friends."
+
+"Yes, we are," Sue says. "We are sorry we hurt you. We did not know you were bad. We want to be nice to you."
+
+They smile and sing to the tree and the roots. They tell them stories and jokes. They make them laugh and feel good.
+
+The tree and the roots listen and watch. They are surprised and happy. They feel warm and soft. They like Tim and Sue.
+
+"Hello, Tim. Hello, Sue," the tree says. "We are the tree and the roots. We are your friends too."
+
+"Yes, we are," the roots say. "We are sorry we hurt you. We did not know you were nice. We want to be nice to you too."
+
+They smile and sing with Tim and Sue. They tell them secrets and wishes. They make them happy and feel good.
+
+Tim and Sue are happy. They have new friends. They own the tree and the roots. The tree and the roots are happy. They have new friends. They own Tim and Sue. They are not poor. They are rich.
+Tom and Sue were twins who liked to play in the yard. They had a big sandbox with many toys. They made castles and bridges and roads with the sand. They had fun, but they also got tired and dirty.
+
+"Time for a nap, kids!" Mom called from the door. "Come inside and wash up!"
+
+Tom and Sue did not want to nap. They wanted to play more. They ran away from Mom and hid behind the shed. They thought Mom could not see them there.
+
+But Mom was smart. She knew where they were. She turned on the hose and sprayed water at the shed. The water made a big puddle that went into the drain. The drain was ancient and rusty. It made a loud noise when the water went in.
+
+Tom and Sue heard the noise and got scared. They thought it was a monster in the drain. They came out from behind the shed and ran to Mom. They hugged her and cried.
+
+"Mom, Mom, there is a monster in the drain!" they said.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them back. She said, "There is no monster, sweeties. It is just the old drain. It needs to be fixed. But you don't have to worry about it. Come on, let's go inside and nap. You will feel better after a nap."
+
+Tom and Sue nodded and followed Mom. They washed their hands and faces and went to their beds. They snuggled with their teddy bears and fell asleep. They dreamed of sand and water and monsters and Mom.
+Anna was a big girl who went to school. She liked to learn new things and play with her friends. But today she had an exam. She had to write and draw what she knew about animals. She was a little nervous, but she studied hard.
+
+She sat at her desk and waited for the teacher to give her the paper. She saw Tom, who sat next to her. He was careless. He did not study and he did not listen. He just wanted to play and have fun. He did not care about the exam.
+
+"Anna, can you help me?" he whispered. "I don't know anything about animals. Can you show me your paper?"
+
+Anna shook her head. "No, Tom. That is not fair. You have to do your own work. And you have to be quiet. The teacher will hear you."
+
+Tom was angry. He did not like Anna's answer. He wanted to cheat. He tried to move his desk closer to Anna's. But he was not careful. He pushed too hard and his desk fell over. His paper, his pencil and his crayons flew everywhere. He made a loud noise.
+
+The teacher heard the noise and turned around. She saw Tom on the floor and his mess. She was not happy. She walked to Tom and helped him up.
+
+"Tom, what are you doing?" she asked. "Why did you move your desk? Why did you disturb Anna? Why did you not study for the exam?"
+
+Tom did not know what to say. He felt ashamed. He knew he was wrong. He looked at Anna. She looked sad. He wished he was not so careless. He wished he was more like Anna. He wished he could say sorry. But he could not. He was too late.
+Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. But Sara wants more. She sees a new bookcase in the hall. It is big and white. It has many new books.
+
+"Mom, I want the new bookcase!" Sara says. She runs to mom. She points to the hall.
+
+"Sorry, Sara, that is not for you. That is for dad. He needs it for his work. You have your own bookcase in your room." Mom says. She smiles.
+
+"No, I want it! I want it!" Sara says. She stamps her feet. She cries. She demands the new bookcase.
+
+"Stop it, Sara. You are being rude. You can't have everything you want. Go back to your room and play nicely with Tom." Mom says. She is angry.
+
+Sara does not listen. She runs to the hall. She tries to pull the new bookcase. It is heavy. It wobbles. It falls. It makes a loud noise. The books fly everywhere. Sara is scared. She screams.
+
+Mom and dad run to the hall. They see the mess. They see Sara. They are shocked. They are sad.
+
+"Sara, what have you done? You have broken dad's new bookcase. You have ruined his books. You have been very naughty. You are in big trouble." Mom says. She is stern.
+
+Sara feels bad. She knows she has done wrong. She wishes she had not demanded the new bookcase. She wishes she had played with Tom. She is sorry. But it is too late. The end.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big hill near their house. They wanted to climb it and see what was on the other side.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Ben said. "It will be fun!"
+
+Lily was nervous. She had never climbed a hill before. She thought it was too high and steep. She was afraid she would fall and hurt herself.
+
+"I don't know, Ben," Lily said. "It looks scary. Maybe we should stay here."
+
+Ben was not nervous. He was brave and curious. He wanted to see new things. He did not listen to Lily. He ran to the hill and started to climb.
+
+"Come on, Lily!" Ben shouted. "Don't be a baby!"
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She did not like Ben calling her a baby. She wanted to be brave too. She followed Ben to the hill and tried to climb.
+
+But the hill was harder than they thought. The ground was slippery and rocky. The wind was strong and cold. Ben and Lily got tired and scared. They wished they had stayed at home.
+
+"Ben, I want to go back!" Lily cried. "This is not fun!"
+
+"Me too, Lily!" Ben said. "This was a bad idea!"
+
+They tried to go down, but they slipped and fell. They rolled down the hill and landed on the grass. They were dirty and sore. They cried and hugged each other.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Ben said. "I was wrong. I should have listened to you. You were right. The hill was scary. We should have stayed here."
+
+"I'm sorry too, Ben," Lily said. "I should have told you how I felt. I was nervous. I did not want to climb the hill. We should have played something else."
+
+They learned their lesson. They decided to be more careful and respectful. They agreed to listen to each other and to their feelings. They walked back to their house and told their parents what happened. Their parents were glad they were safe and sorry they were hurt. They cleaned them up and gave them hugs and kisses. They told them they were proud of them for being honest and brave. They also told them to be more wise and cautious next time. Lily and Ben nodded and smiled. They were still friends who liked to play outside. But they never climbed the hill again.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big tree with many leaves. They wanted to climb the tree and see the sky.
+
+"Can we climb the tree, Mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Be careful, children. The tree is old and some branches are broken. You might fall and hurt yourself," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They found a low branch that looked strong. They helped each other to climb up. They felt happy and proud. They looked around and saw the birds and the flowers and the clouds.
+
+"Wow, the park is so beautiful from here!" Tom said.
+
+"Yes, it is. And we can learn many things from the tree. Like how it grows and makes food and gives shade and air," Lily said.
+
+They heard a loud crack. The branch they were on was broken. It started to bend and shake. Lily and Tom were scared. They screamed for Mom.
+
+Mom heard them and ran to the tree. She reached out her arms and caught them as they fell. She hugged them and checked if they were okay.
+
+"Are you hurt, children?" Mom asked.
+
+"No, Mom. We are sorry. We did not listen to you. The branch was broken and we almost fell," Lily said.
+
+"We learned our lesson, Mom. We will not climb the old tree again. We will find another way to see the sky," Tom said.
+
+Mom smiled and kissed them. She was glad they were safe and smart. She took them to the swings and pushed them gently. They saw the sky and the tree and they were happy.
+Tom and Mia were playing with blocks in their room. They liked to build tall towers and houses with the blocks. Tom had a red block that he valued very much. It was his favorite block and he never let anyone else use it.
+
+One day, there was a big earthquake. The ground shook and the walls cracked. Tom and Mia were scared and ran to their mom. She hugged them and told them they were safe. But when they went back to their room, they saw that their blocks had fallen down. The earthquake had made them crash to the floor.
+
+Tom looked for his red block, but he could not find it. He saw that Mia had it in her hand. She had picked it up from the floor. Tom was angry and snatched the block from her. He yelled, "That's mine! Give it back!"
+
+Mia was hurt and started to cry. She said, "I'm sorry, Tom. I didn't know it was yours. I just liked the color. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+Tom felt ashamed. He had been mean to his sister. He realized that the block was not as important as his family. He said, "I'm sorry, Mia. You can have the block. I love you more than the block."
+
+Mia smiled and hugged him. She said, "I love you too, Tom. Thank you for sharing the block."
+
+They decided to use the block together and build a new tower. They learned to value each other more than their toys.
+Anna loves to study the reef. She likes to see the fish and the plants and the shells. She has a book with pictures of the reef and she learns their names. She wants to know more about the reef.
+
+One day, Anna goes to the beach with her mom and dad. They have a boat and they take Anna to the reef. Anna is very happy. She puts on a mask and a tube and she jumps in the water. She sees the reef with her own eyes. It is very pretty and colorful.
+
+Anna swims near the reef and looks at the fish and the plants and the shells. She sees a big fish with stripes and a long nose. She remembers the name from her book. It is a swordfish. She is not afraid. She follows the swordfish and tries to touch it.
+
+But the swordfish is not happy. It does not like Anna. It turns around and swims fast. It points its nose at Anna and hits her. Anna feels a pain in her arm. She cries out loud. The swordfish swims away.
+
+Anna's mom and dad hear her cry. They swim to her and see her arm. It has a cut and some blood. They are worried. They take Anna out of the water and into the boat. They clean her arm and put a bandage on it. They hug her and tell her it will be okay.
+
+Anna is sad and scared. She does not want to study the reef anymore. She says she hates the swordfish. She wants to go home. Her mom and dad say they are sorry. They say the swordfish was scared too. They say the reef is still beautiful and interesting. They say they will study the reef together another day. They say they love her. Anna feels a little better. She says she loves them too. She says she will study the reef again, but not the swordfish. She says the swordfish is hard and mean.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. They were having fun until they saw a dark cloud in the sky. It looked like rain.
+
+"Let's go home, Lily," Tom said. "We don't want to get wet."
+
+"OK, Tom," Lily said. "But where is our ball?"
+
+They looked around and saw their ball rolling away. It went into the woods, where the trees were tall and the shadows were dark. They heard a cackle.
+
+"Who is there?" Tom asked.
+
+"It is me, the witch!" a voice said. "I have your ball, and you can't have it back. It is mine now!"
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They did not like the witch. She had a big nose, a pointy hat, and a broom. She was mean and ugly.
+
+"Please, witch, give us our ball," Lily said. "We need it to play."
+
+"No, no, no!" the witch said. "It is my ball, and I will keep it. You can't catch me, I am too fast. Ha ha ha!"
+
+The witch flew away on her broom, holding the ball. Tom and Lily were sad and angry. They wanted their ball back.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's rush after her," Tom said. "We can get our ball back. We are brave and smart."
+
+"OK, Tom, let's rush," Lily said. "We can do it. We are a team."
+
+Tom and Lily ran into the woods, following the witch. They dodged the branches, the rocks, and the bugs. They did not give up. They saw the witch ahead, laughing and playing with the ball.
+
+"Stop, witch, stop!" Tom shouted. "That is our ball, not yours. Give it back!"
+
+"Never, never, never!" the witch shouted. "You can't catch me, I am too fast. Ha ha ha!"
+
+Tom and Lily ran faster and faster. They were getting closer and closer. They reached the witch and grabbed the ball. The witch was surprised and angry. She tried to get the ball back, but Tom and Lily held on tight.
+
+"Let go, let go, let go!" the witch screamed. "That is my ball, not yours. Give it back!"
+
+"No, no, no!" Tom and Lily screamed. "That is our ball, not yours. We got it back!"
+
+The witch was furious. She waved her broom and cast a spell. She said some words that Tom and Lily did not understand. They felt a gust of wind and a flash of light. They closed their eyes.
+
+When they opened their eyes, they were back in the park. The sun was shining and the birds were singing. They had their ball in their hands. They looked around and saw no sign of the witch.
+
+"Wow, Lily, that was crazy," Tom said. "Did we dream that?"
+
+"I don't know, Tom, but I'm glad we have our ball back," Lily said. "Let's go home and tell Mom and Dad."
+
+"OK, Lily, let's go home," Tom said. "But first, let's kick the ball one more time."
+
+They kicked the ball to each other and smiled. They were happy and proud. They had beaten the witch. They had their ball back. They were a team.
+Tara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to climb the big hill and look at the old castle. The castle was ancient. It had many stones and towers and windows. Tara and Ben wondered who lived there long ago.
+
+"Maybe there were kings and queens and knights and dragons," Tara said.
+
+"Maybe there were fairies and wizards and magic spells," Ben said.
+
+They decided to pretend they were part of the castle life. Tara put a flower crown on her head and said she was the queen. Ben found a stick and said he was the knight. They ran around the hill, acting out their roles.
+
+They saw a man walking towards them. He had a long beard and a hat and a coat. He looked like a wizard. Tara and Ben stopped and stared at him.
+
+"Hello, children," the man said. "What are you doing here?"
+
+"We are playing castle," Tara said. "I am the queen and he is the knight."
+
+The man smiled. "That sounds like fun. Do you know what this castle is called?"
+
+Tara and Ben shook their heads.
+
+"This castle is called Belong," the man said. "It was built by a great king who wanted everyone to feel welcome and happy here. He invited people from many lands and cultures to share his castle and his life. He believed that everyone belongs in this world, no matter how different they are."
+
+Tara and Ben liked that idea. They thought it was very kind and wise.
+
+"Can we belong to your castle too?" Tara asked.
+
+"Of course you can," the man said. "You already do. You are part of the castle's story, just like me. We all belong here, and we all belong to each other."
+
+Tara and Ben smiled. They felt a warm feeling in their hearts. They thanked the man and continued their play. They felt like they had made a new friend, and learned something new. They felt like they were part of something ancient and wonderful. They felt like they belonged.
+Anna and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a big ship that they pretended was sailing on the sea. They made noises like waves and seagulls and pirates.
+
+"Ahoy, matey!" Ben said, holding a plastic sword. "This is our ship and we are the captains!"
+
+"Yay!" Anna said, wearing a paper hat. "We are the best captains ever! We can go anywhere we want!"
+
+They moved the ship around the carpet, imagining different places they could visit. They saw islands, whales, dolphins, and treasure.
+
+But then, something strange happened. The ship started to shrink! It became smaller and smaller, until it was the size of a toy car.
+
+"Hey, what's going on?" Ben asked, confused. "Why is our ship shrinking?"
+
+"I don't know!" Anna said, scared. "Maybe it's magic!"
+
+They looked around and saw their mom smiling at them. She was holding a remote control in her hand.
+
+"Hi, kids!" she said. "Do you like your new toy? It's a special ship that can shrink and grow with this button. I thought you would have fun with it."
+
+Anna and Ben looked at each other and then at their mom. They realized it was a prank. They laughed and hugged their mom.
+
+"Mom, you're so silly!" Anna said.
+
+"That's a cool toy!" Ben said.
+
+They thanked their mom for the surprise and asked her to make the ship grow again. They continued to play with their ship, happy and amazed. They had a lot of adventures with their shrinking and growing ship.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with their toys in the garden. One day, they found a big brown box under a tree. They wondered what was inside.
+
+"Maybe it is a gift for us!" Lily said.
+
+"Or maybe it is a trap!" Ben said.
+
+They opened the box and saw many shiny things. There were rings, necklaces, bracelets, and coins. They were very happy and started to take some things out.
+
+"These are mine!" Lily said, holding a ring.
+
+"No, these are mine!" Ben said, grabbing a necklace.
+
+They began to fight over the shiny things. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not see the man who was hiding behind the tree. He had a mean smile on his face. He had put the box there to trick the children. He wanted to take all the shiny things for himself.
+
+He waited until Lily and Ben were very tired and angry. Then he came out and said, "Hello, little ones. Do you like my shiny things?"
+
+Lily and Ben stopped fighting and looked at him. They felt scared. They realized they had been fooled. They wished they had not fought over the shiny things. They wished they had stayed friends.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the garden. They had a lot of fun making shapes with the clay. Lily made a crocodile with big teeth and a long tail. Tom made a car with four wheels and a horn.
+
+"Look at my crocodile!" Lily said. "He is very original. He can bite anything he wants."
+
+"Look at my car!" Tom said. "It is very fast. It can go anywhere it wants."
+
+They put their toys on the grass and ran to get some water. They were very thirsty. But when they came back, they saw something terrible. The sun was very hot and it made their toys melt. The crocodile and the car were soft and sticky. They did not look like before.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily cried. "My crocodile is ruined. He has no teeth and no tail."
+
+"Oh no!" Tom cried. "My car is ruined. It has no wheels and no horn."
+
+They were very sad. They did not know what to do. Then they had an idea. They took the melted clay and mixed it together. They made a new toy. It was a croco-car. It had a crocodile head and a car body. It had teeth and wheels and a horn.
+
+"Look at our croco-car!" Lily said. "It is very original. It can bite and go and honk."
+
+"Look at our croco-car!" Tom said. "It is very fun. It can do anything it wants."
+
+They smiled and played with their new toy. They were happy again. They learned that sometimes things can change, but they can still be good.
+Ben likes to play with his drum. He likes to make loud noises and bang on it with his sticks. He thinks it is fun and he does not care if he bothers anyone.
+
+One day, Ben finds a big box in his room. He wonders what is inside. He hopes it is a new toy or a book. He decides to open the box and see. He pulls the tape and lifts the lid.
+
+But instead of a toy or a book, he sees a lot of papers and photos. They are his mom's and dad's papers and photos. They are very important and they do not want anyone to touch them. Ben does not know that. He thinks they are boring and he does not like them.
+
+He takes his drum and starts to bang on the papers and photos. He tears them and crumples them and throws them around. He makes a big mess and he thinks it is funny.
+
+But then his mom and dad come home. They see the box and the papers and the photos. They see Ben and his drum. They are very angry and very sad. They yell at Ben and tell him he is naughty and he has to go to his room. They tell him he has ruined their papers and photos and they can not fix them.
+
+Ben feels ashamed. He knows he has done something bad and he has hurt his mom and dad. He wishes he had not opened the box and played with his drum. He wishes he had listened and been good. He cries and says he is sorry, but it is too late. He has to stay in his room and he can not play with his drum anymore. He has no fun and he is very unhappy.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play and sing together. One day, Anna's mom says, "We are going to the opera today. Do you want to come, Anna?" Anna is happy. She likes the opera. She says, "Yes, mom. I want to come."
+
+Ben hears Anna and her mom. He feels jealous. He likes the opera too, but his mom and dad are busy. He says, "Anna, can I come with you to the opera?" Anna's mom says, "I'm sorry, Ben. We only have two tickets. Maybe another time."
+
+Anna and her mom go to the opera. They see people in nice clothes. They hear beautiful music. They clap and smile. Anna thinks the opera is fun.
+
+Ben stays at home. He is sad and angry. He does not want to play or sing. He thinks the opera is not fair.
+
+Later, Anna and her mom come back. They see Ben sitting on the porch. Anna says, "Hi, Ben. We had a good time at the opera. Do you want to hear about it?" Ben says, "No, I don't. I don't like the opera. I don't like you."
+
+Anna is surprised and hurt. She says, "Ben, why are you so mean? I thought you were my friend." Ben says, "You are not my friend. You left me alone. You did not share the opera with me."
+
+Anna's mom says, "Ben, I understand that you are jealous, but that is not a reason to be rude. Anna did not do anything wrong. She wanted to share the opera with you, but we could not take you. Maybe next time, we can all go together. Would you like that?"
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He feels sorry for being mean. He says, "Yes, I would like that. I'm sorry, Anna. I'm sorry, mom. I was jealous, but I still like the opera. And I still like you."
+
+Anna smiles and hugs Ben. She says, "It's okay, Ben. I forgive you. You are still my friend. And I still like you too."
+
+Anna and Ben go inside. They play and sing together. They are happy again.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big box near the post. The box is unusual. It has many colors and stickers on it.
+
+"Who is this for?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a present," Mia says.
+
+They want to open the box, but it is very heavy. They try to lift it, but they cannot.
+
+"Let's weigh it," Tom says. He has a scale in his room. He runs to get it.
+
+Mia waits for him. She is curious. She touches the box. It makes a noise.
+
+"Meow!"
+
+Mia jumps. She is scared. There is a cat in the box!
+
+Tom comes back with the scale. He sees Mia's face.
+
+"What's wrong?" he asks.
+
+"There is a cat in the box!" Mia says.
+
+"A cat? How did it get there?" Tom wonders.
+
+They hear a knock on the door. It is the postman.
+
+"Hello, kids. I'm sorry, I made a mistake. This box is not for you. It is for Mrs. Lee. She ordered a cat online. Can I have it back, please?" he says.
+
+Tom and Mia are sad. They wanted to see the cat. But they give the box to the postman.
+
+"Bye, cat. Have a good day," they say.

+
+"Run, Jen, run!" Tim says. He is scared of the dog. He turns and runs to the gate. Jen runs too, but she is slower. The dog is faster. The dog catches Jen and bites her leg. Jen screams loud and falls down. She cries and bleeds.
+
+Tim hears Jen and turns back. He wants to help her. He picks up a stick and throws it at the dog. The dog lets go of Jen and chases the stick. Tim runs to Jen and hugs her. He says, "I'm sorry, Jen, I'm sorry."
+
+But Jen does not hug him back. She does not say anything. She does not breathe. Her lung is hurt. She is dead. Tim is sad and cries. He says, "Jen, Jen, wake up, please."
+
+But Jen does not wake up. She is gone. The dog comes back and barks loud. Tim is alone and afraid. He wishes he did not turn and run. He wishes he stayed with Jen. He wishes the dog did not come. He wishes it was a good day. But it is a bad day. A very bad day.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their toys in their room. But their room is very messy. There are toys everywhere. Mom is not happy.

+But Sam sees a red toy fire truck. He likes fire trucks. He wants to play with it. He takes it out of the box and makes siren noises.
+
+"Sam, stop it!" Tom says. "We need to finish organizing. Mom is waiting."
+
+"But I want to play with the fire truck. It is fast and loud. It can put out fires." Sam says.
+
+"No, Sam. We can play with it later. Now we have to listen to Mom. Come on, help me." Tom says.

+Tom was a cat who liked to play with his ball. His ball was red and shiny and made a funny sound when he hit it with his paw. Tom had a lot of fun with his ball, but he also liked to hide it from his friends.
+
+One day, Tom decided to hide his ball under a big leaf. He thought it was a good spot, because no one would see it there. He went to look for his friends, so he could trick them and make them look for his ball.
+
+But when he came back, his ball was gone! He lifted the leaf, but there was nothing there. He looked around, but he could not find his ball anywhere. He felt sad and angry. Who took his ball? He wanted his ball back!
+
+He saw a squirrel on a tree. He asked the squirrel, "Did you see my ball? It was red and shiny and made a funny sound. I hid it under a leaf, but now it is gone!"
+
+The squirrel shook his head. "No, I did not see your ball. Maybe it rolled away. Maybe someone else took it. Maybe it vanished!"
+
+Tom did not know what "vanished" meant. He thought it was a bad word. He did not like the squirrel. He hissed at him and ran away.
+
+He saw a dog on the grass. He asked the dog, "Did you see my ball? It was red and shiny and made a funny sound. I hid it under a leaf, but now it is gone!"
+
+The dog nodded. "Yes, I saw your ball. It was red and shiny and made a funny sound. I liked it. I took it. I played with it. I bit it. I broke it. It was fun!"
+
+Tom was shocked. He could not believe what the dog said. He felt more sad and angry. He wanted his ball back, but it was broken. He did not like the dog. He scratched him and ran away.
+
+He saw a bird on a fence. He asked the bird, "Did you see my ball? It was red and shiny and made a funny sound. I hid it under a leaf, but now it is gone!"
+
+The bird smiled. "Yes, I saw your ball. It was red and shiny and made a funny sound. I did not like it. It was too loud. It hurt my ears. I threw it away. It flew far, far away. It vanished!"
+
+Tom did not know what "vanished" meant, but he knew it was not good. He felt more sad and angry. He wanted his ball back, but it was gone. He did not like the bird. He chased him and ran away.
+
+He ran and ran, until he came to his home. He was tired and hungry and lonely. He wished he had his ball. He missed his ball. He cried and cried.
+
+Then he heard a voice. It was his mom. She said, "Tom, what is wrong? Why are you crying?"
+
+Tom told his mom everything. He told her about his ball, and how he hid it, and how it was gone, and how the squirrel, and the dog, and the bird were mean to him, and how his ball vanished.
+
+His mom hugged him and said, "I'm sorry, Tom. That is very sad. But don't worry. I have a surprise for you. Look!"
+
+She showed him a new ball. It was blue and dull and made no sound. Tom did not like it. He wanted his old ball. He said, "No, thank you. I don't want this ball. It is not like my ball. It is not red and shiny and funny. It is blue and dull and boring. I want my ball!"
+
+His mom said, "I know, Tom. But your ball is gone. You can't have it back. You have to let it go. Maybe you can try this ball. Maybe you can have fun with it. Maybe you can make new friends with it. Maybe you can be happy with it."
+
+Tom looked at his mom. He looked at the new ball. He felt a little curious. He felt a little hopeful. He felt a little better. He said, "Maybe. Can I try it?"
+
+His mom said, "Of course, Tom. You can try it. Here you go."
+
+She gave him the new ball. He took it with his paw. He hit it softly. It did not make a sound. He hit it harder. It still did not make a sound. He hit it very hard. It bounced a little. He chased it. He caught it. He hit it again. He smiled a little. He said, "This ball is not so bad. It is not like my ball, but it is still a ball. I can play with it. I can have fun with it.
+Sam and Jen are twins. They like to play in the big house. One day, they enter the kitchen. They see a mop on the floor.
+
+"Look, a mop!" Sam says. "Let's play with it!"
+
+"OK!" Jen says. "But we have to be quiet. Mom is in the other room."
+
+They take the mop and pretend it is a horse. They ride it around the kitchen. They have fun.
+
+But they do not see the wet spot on the floor. The mop made it when Mom cleaned the spill. It is slippery.
+
+Sam rides the mop too fast. He hits the wet spot. He falls down. The mop falls on him. He cries.
+
+"Sam!" Jen says. "Are you OK?"
+
+Mom hears the noise. She enters the kitchen. She sees Sam and Jen and the mop.
+
+"Oh, no!" Mom says. "What happened?"
+
+"Mom, I'm sorry!" Sam says. "I was playing with the mop and I fell down. It hurts!"
+
+Mom hugs Sam. She checks his head. He has a bump.
+
+"It's OK, Sam," Mom says. "It was an accident. But you should not play with the mop. It is not a toy. It is for cleaning."
+
+"I know, Mom," Sam says. "I won't do it again."
+
+Mom smiles. She gets a band-aid and puts it on Sam's bump.
+
+"Here you go, Sam," Mom says. "This will make you feel better."
+
+"Thank you, Mom," Sam says.
+
+Mom looks at Jen. She sees that Jen is holding the mop.
+
+"Jen, do you want to play with the mop too?" Mom asks.
+
+Jen shakes her head. She gives the mop to Mom.
+
+"No, thank you, Mom," Jen says. "The mop is not fit for me. I prefer my doll."
+Sara liked to play with her shadow. She would make funny shapes with her hands and feet and watch her shadow copy her. She thought her shadow was her friend.
+
+One day, she saw a new shadow on the wall. It was bigger and darker than hers. It moved when she moved, but it did not look like her. She was confused. Who was this shadow?
+
+She asked her mom. "Mom, who is that shadow?" She pointed at the wall.
+
+Her mom smiled. "That is your brother's shadow, Sara. He is in his crib, but the sun is shining through the window and making his shadow on the wall."
+
+Sara looked at her brother. He was sleeping and did not know about his shadow. She felt sorry for him. He did not have a friend to play with.
+
+She decided to teach him about shadows. She went to his crib and gently woke him up. She took his hand and showed him his shadow. She made funny shapes with her hands and feet and helped him do the same. She said, "Look, this is your shadow. It is like you, but on the wall. It is fun to play with. Do you like it?"
+
+Her brother smiled and nodded. He liked his shadow. He liked his sister. They played with their shadows until they got tired. Then they hugged and went back to sleep. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben are playing with paper. They like to cut and glue and make things. Sara has a big paper and she wants to make a hat. She cuts a circle and a strip. She glues the strip to the circle. She tries to put the hat on her head, but it is too small. It does not fit.
+
+"Look, Ben, my hat is too small!" Sara says. She is worried. She likes her hat, but she wants to wear it.
+
+Ben looks at Sara's hat. He has an idea. He has a small paper and he wants to help Sara. He cuts a slit in the middle of his paper. He slides his paper over Sara's hat. He makes a hole for Sara's head. He glues his paper to Sara's paper. He makes a bigger hat.
+
+"Look, Sara, I made your hat bigger!" Ben says. He is happy. He likes to help Sara.

+Anna and Ben like to play at the park. They like to swing, climb and run. But their favorite thing is to slide. They slide on the big slide, the small slide and the twisty slide.
+
+One day, they see a new slide at the park. It is very long and has a big hole at the end. It looks like a port for a ship. Anna and Ben are curious. They want to try the new slide.
+
+They run to the new slide and wait for their turn. Anna goes first. She sits on the slide and says, "I am ready!" She pushes herself and slides down. She goes very fast and feels the wind in her hair. She laughs and shouts, "Whee!"
+
+Ben watches Anna and smiles. He wants to slide too. He sits on the slide and says, "I am ready!" He pushes himself and slides down. He goes very fast and feels the wind in his face. He laughs and shouts, "Whee!"

+
+"Who are you?" Sara asks the dog. "How did you get in the pool?"
+
+The dog does not answer. It tries to swim to the edge. But the pool is too deep. The dog is tired and sad.
+
+Tom has an idea. He gets a big float. He pushes it to the dog. The dog climbs on the float. It is happy and safe.
+
+"Good boy!" Tom says. He rubs the dog's head. The dog licks Tom's face.
+

+But then, Tom sees something in the leaves. It is a banana. It is brown and soft. It has spots on it. Tom picks it up and says, "Look, Lily, a banana!"
+
+Lily looks at the banana. She makes a face. She says, "Yuck, Tom, that banana is bad. It is rot. It is not good to eat. Throw it away!"
+
+Tom says, "No, Lily, it is not rot. It is ripe. It is sweet and yummy. I will eat it." He peels the banana and takes a bite.
+
+Lily says, "Ew, Tom, you are silly. That banana is not ripe. It is rot. It will make you sick. Spit it out!"
+
+Tom says, "No, Lily, you are silly. That banana is not sick. It is easy to eat. It is soft and mushy. I like it." He winks at Lily and takes another bite.
+
+Lily says, "Tom, you are not wink. You are trick. You are not like the banana. You are like the leaves. You are fun and crunchy. Come and play with me!"
+
+Tom says, "Okay, Lily, you are right. The banana is not fun. It is rot. It is not easy to eat. It is hard to swallow. I will spit it out." He spits out the banana and throws it away.
+
+Lily says, "Good, Tom, you are smart. You are not like the banana. You are like the sun. You are bright and warm. Come and hug me!"
+
+Tom says, "Okay, Lily, you are right. The banana is not bright. It is dark. It is not warm. It is cold. I will hug you." He hugs Lily and smiles.
+
+They are happy. They are friends. They play in the park. They forget the banana. They remember the leaves. They jump in. They laugh and have fun.
+Lily loved to look at tiny things with her microscope. She liked to see the hairs on a leaf, the spots on a ladybug, and the shapes of salt crystals. She was very careful with her microscope, because it was fragile and could break easily.
+
+One day, her friend Ben came over to play. He saw the microscope on Lily's desk and wanted to try it. He asked Lily, "Can I borrow your microscope? I want to look at this feather I found."
+
+Lily was not sure. She knew Ben was sometimes rough with his toys. She said, "You can borrow it, but you have to be gentle. It is fragile and it is my favorite thing."
+
+Ben nodded and took the microscope. He put the feather on the slide and looked through the eyepiece. He saw the tiny barbs and hooks that made the feather smooth and fluffy. He said, "Wow, this is cool! The feather has so many parts!"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I know, right? Microscopes are amazing. They let you see things you can't see with your eyes."
+
+Ben agreed and said, "Thank you for letting me borrow your microscope, Lily. You are a good friend."
+
+Lily said, "You're welcome, Ben. You are a good friend too. And thank you for being gentle with my microscope."
+Tim and his dog Spot were best friends. They liked to play and run and have fun. One day, Tim found a new shoe in his room. It was big and shiny and had a red bow. Tim wanted to try it on, but it was too big for him.
+
+"Look, Spot, a new shoe!" Tim said, holding it up. "Do you like it?"
+
+Spot barked and wagged his tail. He liked anything that Tim liked. He jumped up and tried to sniff the shoe, but Tim pulled it away.
+
+"No, Spot, this is not for you. This is for Mommy. She will wear it when she goes out with Daddy. You have your own toys, Spot. Go get your ball."
+
+Spot felt sad. He wanted to play with the shoe, too. He thought it looked like a fun toy. He did not understand why Tim did not want to share. He went to his bed and lay down. He did not want to play with his ball. He wanted to be with Tim.
+
+Tim put the shoe on his dresser and went to play with his blocks. He forgot about the shoe and Spot. He was busy building a tower. He did not notice that Spot got up and sneaked to the dresser. He did not hear Spot grab the shoe with his teeth and run away.
+
+Spot was happy. He had the shoe. He thought Tim would not mind. He thought Tim would play with him later. He ran to the backyard and lay down under a tree. He started to chew on the shoe. He liked how it tasted and felt. He did not see that the shoe was getting dirty and torn.
+
+Tim finished his tower and looked for Spot. He wanted to show him his tower. He called his name, but Spot did not come. He looked around and saw the shoe was gone. He felt scared. He knew Mommy would be angry if she saw the shoe was missing. He ran to the backyard and saw Spot with the shoe.
+
+"Spot, no!" Tim yelled. "That is Mommy's shoe! You are a bad dog! Give it back!"
+
+Spot heard Tim and looked up. He saw Tim was angry and sad. He felt sorry. He did not mean to be bad. He loved Tim. He was loyal. He dropped the shoe and ran to Tim. He licked his face and wagged his tail. He wanted to say sorry.
+
+Tim saw the shoe was ruined. He felt sad and mad. He pushed Spot away. He picked up the shoe and ran to his room. He cried. He did not want to talk to Spot. He did not want to be his friend.
+
+Spot followed Tim and lay down at his door. He whined and scratched. He wanted to be with Tim. He wanted to be his friend. He waited and hoped that Tim would forgive him. He did not know what to do. He was loyal.
+Tim and Jen were playing with their toy cars in the backyard. They liked to make noises and pretend they were racing. Tim had a red car and Jen had a blue car. They were having fun.
+
+But then, Tim saw something shiny in the grass. He went to pick it up. It was a missile. It was long and silver and had a pointy end. Tim did not know what it was, but he thought it looked cool.
+
+"Look, Jen, I found a missile!" he said, holding it up.
+
+"Wow, Tim, that's a big toy!" Jen said, coming closer. "Can I see it?"
+
+Tim was generous. He liked to share with Jen. He gave her the missile.
+
+"Thank you, Tim!" Jen said, smiling. She felt the missile. It was heavy and cold. She wondered what it could do.
+
+She pressed a button on the side of the missile. She heard a beep. She did not know what it meant.
+
+Suddenly, the missile started to shake. It made a loud noise. It flew out of Jen's hands and zoomed into the sky. Tim and Jen watched it go. They were scared.
+
+"Tim, what did you do?" Jen cried.
+
+"I don't know, Jen, I don't know!" Tim said.
+
+They ran to the house. They wanted to tell their mom. They hoped the missile would not hurt anyone. They cared about people. They did not like to make trouble. They were sorry.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a bench near the slide. They run to the bench and sit down.
+
+"Let's joke with each other," Tom says. "I will say something funny and you will laugh."
+
+"OK," Lily says. "You go first."
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. Then he says, "Why did the chicken cross the road?"
+
+Lily waits for the answer. She knows this joke.
+
+"To get to the other side," Tom says.
+
+Lily laughs. She thinks Tom is funny.
+
+"Your turn," Tom says.
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. Then she says, "What do you call a fish that wears a bow?"
+
+Tom waits for the answer. He does not know this joke.
+
+"A rainbow fish," Lily says.
+
+Tom laughs. He thinks Lily is funny.
+
+They joke with each other for a while. They have fun.
+
+Then they see a lady with a big bag. The lady looks tired. She walks to the bench and puts the bag down.
+
+"Hello," the lady says. "Can you be helpful and watch my bag for a minute? I need to go to the bathroom."
+
+"Sure," Tom and Lily say. They are kind.
+
+The lady smiles and says, "Thank you. I will be back soon."
+
+She leaves the bag on the bench and walks away.
+
+Tom and Lily look at the bag. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Maybe it is a surprise," Tom says.
+
+"Maybe it is a toy," Lily says.
+
+They are curious.
+
+They decide to open the bag and see. They unzip the bag and peek inside.
+
+They see a lot of books. They are disappointed.
+
+"Books are boring," Tom says.
+
+"Books are not fun," Lily says.
+
+They close the bag and sit back on the bench.
+
+They wait for the lady to come back.
+
+They do not joke anymore.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their dolls in the living room. They liked to pretend that their dolls were sick and they had to take them to the hospital. Lily had a pink doll with curly hair and Ben had a blue doll with a hat.
+
+"Your doll has a fever, Ben. We need to go to the hospital now!" Lily said, holding her doll close to her chest.
+
+"OK, Lily. But I don't like the hospital. It is scary. There are big machines and needles and people in white clothes," Ben said, holding his doll tight.
+
+Lily shrugged. She was not scared of the hospital. She had been there before when she broke her arm. She knew that the people in white clothes were nice and they helped her feel better.
+
+"Don't worry, Ben. The hospital is not scary. It is a good place. The people in white clothes are doctors and nurses. They will help our dolls feel better too. Come on, let's go!" Lily said, grabbing Ben's hand and leading him to the door.
+
+They put on their coats and shoes and ran outside. They pretended that their bikes were ambulances and they made siren noises as they rode to the hospital. They parked their bikes in front of the house and ran inside. They found their mom in the kitchen and showed her their dolls.
+
+"Mom, mom, our dolls are sick. We need to take them to the hospital. Can you help us?" Lily said, holding her doll up.
+
+Mom smiled and looked at their dolls. She saw that they had stickers on their foreheads and band-aids on their arms and legs.
+
+"Of course, I can help you. Let's go to the hospital. I have a special room for sick dolls. Follow me," Mom said, taking their dolls and leading them to the bedroom.
+
+They followed Mom to the bedroom and saw that she had set up a hospital bed with pillows and blankets. She put their dolls on the bed and gave them each a toy stethoscope and a toy thermometer.
+
+"Now, you can be the doctors and nurses. You can check your dolls' temperature, listen to their heartbeat, and give them medicine. They will feel better soon," Mom said, giving them a kiss.
+
+Lily and Ben smiled and thanked Mom. They put on their stethoscopes and thermometers and started to play. They checked their dolls' temperature, listened to their heartbeat, and gave them medicine. They talked to their dolls and told them that they loved them and that they would be OK.
+
+They played for a long time and had fun. They forgot that they were scared of the hospital. They learned that the hospital was a good place and that the people in white clothes were nice and they helped people and dolls feel better. They were happy and proud to be doctors and nurses.
+Sara and Tom like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make roads with blocks and race their cars on them. Sometimes they crash and laugh.
+
+One day, Sara has a new car. It is pink and shiny and has a button. Sara shows Tom her new car and says, "Look, Tom, this is my new car. It is very pretty and fast. Do you want to see what it can do?"
+
+Tom nods and says, "Yes, Sara, show me your new car. What can it do?"
+
+Sara presses the button and the car makes a loud noise. Then it starts to move by itself. It goes forward and backward, left and right. It can reverse and turn around. Sara and Tom are amazed and clap their hands.
+
+But then the car goes too fast and hits a block. The block falls and hits Sara's brush. Sara's brush flies in the air and lands on Tom's head. Tom feels something tickle his hair and says, "Ouch, Sara, what is that?"
+
+Sara sees her brush on Tom's head and says, "Oh, no, Tom, I'm sorry. That is my brush. It fell from the car. Are you okay?"
+
+Tom takes the brush off his head and says, "I'm okay, Sara. It was just a little bump. But your brush is not pretty anymore. It is dirty and bent. Do you want to clean it?"
+
+Sara nods and says, "Yes, Tom, thank you. Let's go to the sink and wash it. And let's put the car away. It is too wild for us."
+
+Sara and Tom go to the sink and wash the brush. Then they put the car and the blocks back in the box. They hug and say, "We are still friends, right?"
+
+They smile and say, "Yes, we are still friends. And we still like to play with cars. But maybe not with that one."
+Tom and Lily were playing knights and dragons in the garden. Tom had a long stick for a sword and Lily had a big lid for a shield. They pretended to fight the scary dragon that lived in the bushes.
+
+"Roar!" Tom shouted, waving his stick. "I am the dragon and I will eat you!"
+
+"No, you won't!" Lily said, holding her shield in front of her. "I am the brave knight and I will stop you!"
+
+They ran around the garden, chasing and dodging each other. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, Tom swung his stick too hard and hit Lily's shield. There was a loud snap and the stick broke in two. Tom was very sad. He liked his stick. He threw the pieces on the ground and started to cry.
+
+Lily felt sorry for Tom. She put down her shield and went to hug him. "It's okay, Tom. It's just a stick. We can find another one."
+
+But Tom was very angry. He pushed Lily away and grabbed her shield. He raised it over his head and smashed it on Lily's head. Lily fell down and did not move. She was hurt. Tom was scared. He dropped the shield and ran away.
+
+Mom and Dad heard the noise and came to the garden. They saw Lily on the ground and the broken stick and shield. They were very worried. They called for help and took Lily to the hospital. They were very mad at Tom. They did not let him play with Lily anymore. Tom was very sorry. He wished he did not break his stick and hurt Lily. He wished he could say sorry to Lily. But it was too late.
+Lila and Sam went to the beach with Mom and Dad. They liked to play in the sand and look at the water. Sometimes they saw fish and crabs and shells. They also saw birds that flew in the sky and dived into the water. They were doves.
+
+One day, Lila and Sam saw a big boat on the water. It had a flag and a horn. They heard the horn go "toot toot". They saw people on the boat. They waved at them. The people waved back.
+
+"Look, Sam, they are waving at us!" Lila said.
+
+"Let's wave more!" Sam said.
+
+They waved and waved until the boat was far away.
+
+Then they saw a dove on the sand. It had a shiny thing in its beak. It looked like a ring.
+
+"Wow, what is that?" Lila asked.
+
+"Maybe it is a treasure!" Sam said.
+
+They ran to the dove. The dove saw them and flew away. It dropped the ring on the sand.
+
+Lila and Sam picked up the ring. It was silver and had a blue stone.
+
+"It is so pretty!" Lila said.
+
+"Maybe it is useful!" Sam said.
+
+They showed the ring to Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad smiled.
+
+"That is a very nice ring. Where did you find it?" Mom asked.
+
+"A dove gave it to us!" Lila said.
+
+"A dove?" Dad asked.
+
+"Yes, a dove with a shiny beak!" Sam said.
+
+Mom and Dad looked at each other. They did not know what to say.
+

+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play outside in summer. Summer is hot and sunny. They wear yellow hats and yellow shirts.
+
+One day, they find a big box in the garage. Inside the box, there are two water guns. They are blue and green. Tom and Lily are happy. They want to play with the water guns.
+
+They fill the water guns with water from the hose. They run to the backyard. They hide behind the trees and the flowers. They shoot water at each other. They laugh and scream.
+
+"Got you, Lily!" Tom says. He shoots water at Lily's hat.
+
+"Missed me, Tom!" Lily says. She shoots water at Tom's shirt.

+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to draw with pens and paper. Lily has a red pen and Ben has a blue pen. They draw flowers and stars and houses.
+
+"Look at my flower!" Lily says. She raises her paper to show Ben. "It is beautiful. It has many petals and a yellow center."
+
+"Wow, your flower is very beautiful!" Ben says. He raises his paper to show Lily. "Look at my star! It is bright and shiny. It has five points and a smiley face."
+
+"Wow, your star is very beautiful!" Lily says. They smile at each other and keep drawing.
+
+But then, Lily's pen runs out of ink. She tries to draw more, but nothing comes out. She feels sad and angry. She wants to finish her flower.
+
+"Ben, can I use your pen?" Lily asks. "My pen is broken. I need a blue pen to make the sky."
+
+Ben looks at his pen. He likes his pen. He does not want to share it. He wants to finish his star.
+
+"No, you can't use my pen!" Ben says. "My pen is mine. You have your own pen. Find another pen!"
+
+Lily feels hurt and mad. She does not like Ben's answer. She thinks he is mean and selfish. She does not want to be his friend.
+
+"Fine, I don't need your pen!" Lily says. "I don't want to draw with you anymore. You are not a good friend!"
+
+She grabs her paper and runs away. Ben feels sorry and sad. He does not want to lose his friend. He thinks he was wrong and rude. He wants to say sorry and share his pen.
+
+"Lily, wait!" Ben says. He grabs his paper and pen and runs after her. "Lily, I'm sorry! I was mean and selfish. You can use my pen. I want to draw with you. You are a good friend!"
+
+He catches up with Lily and gives her his pen. Lily sees his pen and his face. She feels happy and glad. She takes his pen and hugs him.
+
+"Thank you, Ben!" Lily says. "I'm sorry, too. I was sad and angry. You are a good friend. I want to draw with you, too."
+
+They hug and smile. They go back to their spot and finish their drawings. They use both pens and make the sky and the sun. They make their flower and star more beautiful. They are happy and proud. They are friends.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play outside in the yard. One day, they see a big box near the fence. They want to see what is inside.
+
+They run to the box and open it. They find a lot of toys and books and clothes. They are very happy. They start to take out the things and play with them. They do not see the sign on the box. The sign says: "Do not touch. This is for the poor kids."
+
+A man comes to the yard. He is angry. He is the owner of the box. He sees Tom and Sam with his things. He yells at them. He says: "You are bad boys. You are stealing from the poor kids. You are stupid. Give me back my things."
+
+Tom and Sam are scared. They drop the things and run to the house. They lock the door. They hope the man will go away.
+
+But the man does not go away. He knocks on the door. He says: "Open the door. I want to talk to your mom and dad. I want to tell them what you did. You have to return the things you took."
+
+Tom and Sam do not want to open the door. They do not want to talk to the man. They do not want to return the things. They do not want to tell their mom and dad. They think they are in big trouble. They wish they never saw the box. They wish they were not stupid.
+Tom and Mia liked to travel with their dad. He had a big car that could go very fast. Sometimes they went to the beach, or the park, or the zoo. But their favorite place to go was the forest.
+
+The forest was deep and green, with many trees and animals. Tom and Mia liked to explore and play in the forest. They made a secret hut with sticks and leaves, and pretended to be adventurers. One day, they found something very special in the forest.
+
+It was a shiny stone, with many colors. It sparkled in the sun, and felt warm in their hands. Tom and Mia wondered what it was. They decided to take it to their hut, and show it to their dad.
+
+"Look, dad, what we found!" they said, when they got to the hut. "It's a magic stone!"
+
+Their dad smiled and took the stone. He looked at it closely, and then said, "You're right, kids, this is a magic stone. It can take you to any place you want to go. All you have to do is wish for it."
+
+"Really?" Tom and Mia asked, with wide eyes. "Can we try it?"
+
+"Sure, why not?" their dad said. "But be careful, and stay together. Where do you want to go?"
+
+Tom and Mia thought for a moment. Then they said, "We want to go to the moon!"
+
+Their dad laughed and said, "Okay, then. Hold the stone, and close your eyes, and say, 'We wish to go to the moon.'"
+
+Tom and Mia did as their dad said. They held the stone, and closed their eyes, and said, "We wish to go to the moon."
+
+Suddenly, they felt a strange sensation. They felt light and airy, and they heard a whooshing sound. They opened their eyes, and gasped.
+
+They were on the moon! They saw the stars, and the earth, and the craters. They felt the dust under their feet, and the cold air on their faces. They looked at each other, and smiled.
+
+They had traveled to the moon, with the magic stone. They were very happy, and very amazed. They hugged their dad, and thanked him for the best adventure ever.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the living room. They liked to jump on the big cushion that was on the sofa. It was soft and fluffy and made them laugh.
+
+"Look at me, Lily!" Tom said. "I can jump very high!" He jumped on the cushion and bounced up and down.
+
+"Me too, Tom!" Lily said. "I can jump higher than you!" She jumped on the cushion and tried to reach the ceiling.
+
+But then something strange happened. The cushion started to shrink. It became smaller and smaller until it was the size of a pillow.
+
+"Tom, what's happening?" Lily asked. She was scared. She felt different. She looked at Tom and saw that he was different too. He was smaller than her.
+
+"Uh-oh, Lily," Tom said. "I think we shrank too. The cushion made us shrink!"
+
+They looked around and saw that everything was bigger than them. The sofa, the table, the lamp, the toys. They felt like ants in a giant house.
+
+"Tom, how do we get big again?" Lily asked. She wanted to cry.
+
+"I don't know, Lily," Tom said. "Maybe we have to find the cushion and jump on it again. Maybe that will make us grow."
+
+They decided to try. They climbed down from the sofa and looked for the cushion. It was on the floor, near the door. They ran towards it, hoping that no one would see them or step on them.
+
+They reached the cushion and jumped on it. But nothing happened. They did not grow. They stayed small.
+
+"Tom, it's not working!" Lily said. "What do we do now?"
+
+Tom did not answer. He saw something that made him scream. It was their cat, Fluffy. He was big and hungry. And he saw them.
+
+"Run, Lily, run!" Tom shouted. "It's Fluffy! He wants to eat us!"
+
+They ran away from the cushion and the cat. They looked for a place to hide. They hoped that someone would help them. They wished they never jumped on the cushion. They wished they were big again.
+Lila was a little girl who liked to dream. Every night, she would close her eyes and imagine wonderful things. She dreamed of flying with birds, swimming with fish, and playing with fairies. She was happy in her dreams.
+
+One night, she had a terrible dream. She dreamed that a big monster came to her room and wanted to eat her. The monster had sharp teeth, hairy legs, and green eyes. It roared and growled and reached for Lila. Lila was very scared and wanted to wake up.
+
+She tried to scream, but no sound came out. She tried to run, but her feet were stuck. She tried to pinch herself, but it did not work. She felt helpless and alone.
+
+Then, she heard a voice. It was her brother, Leo. He was sleeping in the next room. He said, "Lila, Lila, what's wrong? I heard you crying. Are you having a bad dream?"
+
+Lila was so happy to hear Leo. She said, "Yes, yes, I am. There is a monster in my room. It wants to eat me. Please help me, Leo. Please make it go away."
+
+Leo got up and ran to Lila's room. He turned on the light and looked around. He saw no monster, only Lila's toys and books and a jar of olives on her nightstand. He said, "Lila, there is no monster. It was just a dream. Look, this is your teddy bear, this is your doll, and this is your jar of olives. You like olives, remember? They are yummy and healthy. There is nothing to be afraid of."
+
+Lila opened her eyes and saw Leo. She saw her teddy bear, her doll, and her jar of olives. She realized that it was just a dream. She felt silly and relieved. She said, "Thank you, Leo. You are right. It was just a dream. I like olives, but I don't like monsters. Can you stay with me until I fall asleep?"
+
+Leo smiled and hugged Lila. He said, "Of course, I can. I love you, Lila. You are my sister. I will always protect you from monsters and bad dreams. Now, let's go back to sleep and dream of nice things."
+
+Lila snuggled with Leo and closed her eyes. She felt safe and warm. She dreamed of flying with birds, swimming with fish, and playing with fairies. She was happy in her dreams.
+Tim was a boy who liked to imagine. He imagined he was a knight, a pirate, a superhero, or anything he wanted. He had a big box of toys and costumes that helped him play pretend.
+
+One day, he found a book in the box that he had never seen before. It had a picture of a witch on the cover and many strange words inside. Tim wondered what the book was. He opened it and tried to read some of the words, but they were too hard for him.
+
+He saw a word that looked like "spell". He thought it meant something magic. He pointed at the book and said the word out loud. "Spell!"
+
+Suddenly, something happened. The book glowed and made a noise. Tim felt a tickle on his nose. He looked in the mirror and saw that he had a big, ugly wart on his face. He was scared and cried.
+
+He ran to his mom and showed her his nose. She was surprised and asked him what he did. He told her about the book and the word. She looked at the book and saw that it was a book of spells for witches. She realized that Tim had said a spell that made him look like a witch.
+
+She hugged him and told him not to worry. She said she knew how to fix it. She took the book and found another word that looked like "spell". She said it out loud and pointed at Tim. "Spell!"
+
+The book glowed and made another noise. Tim felt another tickle on his nose. He looked in the mirror and saw that his wart was gone. He was happy and smiled.
+
+He thanked his mom and gave her a kiss. She told him to be careful with the book and to only imagine nice things. She put the book back in the box and closed it. Tim agreed and said he would. He decided to imagine he was a prince instead of a witch. He put on a crown and a cape and played with his toys. He had fun and forgot about the ugly spell.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and laugh. They saw a big squash on the ground. It was orange and round and heavy.
+
+"I want the squash!" Lily said. She tried to pick it up, but it was too heavy for her.
+
+"No, I want the squash!" Tom said. He pushed Lily away and grabbed the squash. He lifted it up and smiled.
+
+Lily was angry. She wanted the squash too. She ran to Tom and tried to take the squash from him. They both pulled and tugged and shouted.
+
+"Stop!" Mom said. She came out of the house and saw them fighting. She was not happy. She said, "You need to share the squash. It is not nice to fight. If you don't share, I will freeze the squash and make soup for dinner."
+
+Lily and Tom did not want soup. They liked the squash as it was. They looked at each other and felt sorry. They said, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, Lily. Sorry, Tom."
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "That's better. Now you can play with the squash together. You can roll it, or bounce it, or make a face on it. But be careful, it is still heavy."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They put the squash on the ground and played with it. They had fun and they did not fight. They were proud of themselves for sharing and being nice. Mom was proud of them too. She gave them a hug and a kiss and said, "You are good children. I love you."
+Sara was a dog who lived in a big house with her owner, Tom. Tom loved Sara and gave her good food, toys and hugs. Sara was happy and loyal to Tom.
+
+One day, Tom took Sara to the park for a walk. Sara saw many other dogs and wanted to play with them. But some of the dogs were mean and barked at Sara. They said Sara was a cheap dog who had a cheap collar and a cheap owner. Sara felt sad and angry.
+
+Sara ran away from the mean dogs and saw a big pond. She saw a duck swimming in the water and thought it would be fun to chase it. Sara jumped into the pond and swam after the duck. But the duck was faster and smarter than Sara. The duck led Sara to the deep part of the pond, where Sara could not touch the bottom. Sara started to sink and cry for help.
+
+Tom heard Sara's cries and ran to the pond. He saw Sara struggling in the water and was very scared. He quickly took off his shoes and jumped into the pond. He swam to Sara and grabbed her by the collar. He pulled her to the shore and hugged her tightly. He was so happy that Sara was safe.
+
+Sara was wet and cold, but also grateful and ashamed. She realized that she had been foolish and unkind. She had run away from her owner, who loved her and cared for her. She had chased a duck, who tricked her and put her in danger. She had listened to the mean dogs, who lied to her and hurt her feelings. Sara learned a lesson that day. She learned that being cheap or expensive does not matter. What matters is being good and loyal. She looked at Tom and licked his face. She knelt down and wagged her tail. She said sorry and thank you. Tom smiled and petted her. He said it was okay and he loved her. Sara and Tom went home together, happy and loyal.
+One day, a hunter went to the forest to look for some food. He saw a big deer and he wanted to taste its meat. He took his bow and arrow and aimed at the deer. But he missed and the arrow hit a tree instead. The deer ran away and the hunter was sad.
+
+He walked around the forest and saw a rabbit. He thought the rabbit would be a good snack. He took his bow and arrow again and tried to shoot the rabbit. But he missed again and the arrow hit a rock. The rabbit hopped away and the hunter was angry.
+
+He kept walking and saw a bird. He hoped the bird would be easy to catch. He took his bow and arrow for the third time and aimed at the bird. But he missed once more and the arrow flew into the sky. The bird flew away and the hunter was frustrated.
+
+He sat down on the ground and felt very hungry. He had no food and no arrows left. He looked around and saw a big bear. The bear smelled the hunter and came closer. The hunter was scared and tried to run away. But the bear was faster and caught the hunter.
+
+"Please don't eat me, Mr. Bear!" the hunter begged. "I have a family and I love them very much. You can have anything else you want, but not me!"
+
+The bear looked at the hunter and shook his head. "You are a bad hunter," the bear said. "You wasted your arrows and scared away the animals. You have no food and no skills. You are not a good taste for me. You are not available."
+
+The bear let go of the hunter and walked away. The hunter was relieved and thanked the bear. He ran back to his home and hugged his family. He learned a lesson that day.

+
+Sam says, "OK, let's try it." They take the loop and the ball to a grassy hill. Tim holds the loop and Sam throws the ball. The ball goes through the loop and bounces down the hill. They laugh and run after the ball.

+
+Tim and Sam are sad. They lose their ball. They only have the loop. They look at each other and say, "We should have been more careful. We should have watched our ball. We should not have played with the loop. The loop is not ours. It belongs to someone else."

+They learn a lesson. They learn to be careful with their things. They learn to respect other people's things. They hope to find their ball again. They hope the dog is happy with the ball. They go home and hug their moms.

+"Look, Ben, a ring!" Lisa said. "Let's play with it."
+
+"OK, Lisa, but be careful. Don't lose it," Ben said.
+
+They put the ring on their fingers and pretended to be princes and princesses. They had fun for a while, but then they got bored. They wanted to play something else.
+
+"Let's play guess what I have," Lisa said. "I will hide something in my hand and you have to guess what it is."
+
+"OK, Lisa, you go first," Ben said.
+
+Lisa took the ring off her finger and hid it in her hand. She closed her fist and showed it to Ben.
+
+"Guess what I have, Ben," Lisa said.
+
+Ben looked at her hand and tried to guess. He thought it was something small and round.
+
+"Is it a marble?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, Ben, it's not a marble. Guess again," Lisa said.
+
+"Is it a candy?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, Ben, it's not a candy. Guess again," Lisa said.
+
+"Is it a button?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, Ben, it's not a button. You are wrong. Do you give up?" Lisa said.
+
+Ben did not want to give up. He wanted to know what Lisa had. He had an idea. He grabbed Lisa's hand and opened it. He saw the ring and smiled.
+
+"I know what you have, Lisa. You have the ring!" Ben said.
+
+Lisa was angry. She did not like that Ben cheated. She tried to take the ring back, but Ben did not let her. They started to fight over the ring. They pulled and pushed and shouted.
+
+"Give me the ring, Ben! It's mine!" Lisa said.
+
+"No, Lisa, it's mine! I guessed it!" Ben said.
+
+They did not see that their mom came into the room. She saw them fighting over the ring and was very upset. She took the ring from them and scolded them.
+
+"What are you doing, Lisa and Ben? How dare you play with my ring? It's very expensive and special. It was a gift from your dad. You could have lost it or broken it. You are very naughty. Go to your room and think about what you did. No more playing for you today," she said.
+
+Lisa and Ben felt very sorry and ashamed. They knew they did something bad. They went to their room and cried. They wished they never played with the ring. They learned their lesson. The end.

+Lily and Ben were going to a hotel with their mom and dad. They were very happy and excited. They wanted to see the big pool and the nice rooms. They packed their bags and got in the car.
+
+"Are we there yet?" Lily asked.
+
+"Soon, sweetie. Just a little more," mom said.
+
+Ben looked out the window and saw many cars and buildings. He wondered what the hotel would look like. He hoped it would have a slide and a playground.
+
+They arrived at the hotel and checked in. The lady at the desk gave them a key and told them their room number. They took the elevator and found their room. It was very big and cozy. There were two beds, a sofa, a TV, and a bathroom.
+
+"Wow, this is awesome!" Ben said.
+
+"Can we go to the pool now?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, but first we need to change into our swimsuits and put on some sunscreen," dad said.
+
+They changed and put on sunscreen. They grabbed their towels and toys and headed to the pool. Mom and dad told them to be careful and stay close.
+
+Lily and Ben had a lot of fun in the pool. They splashed, swam, and played with their toys. They made some new friends and shared their toys with them. They laughed and smiled.
+
+But then, Ben became careless. He forgot to listen to mom and dad. He ran around the pool and slipped on the wet floor. He fell and hurt his knee. He cried and cried.
+
+Mom and dad rushed to him and hugged him. They checked his knee and saw a small cut. They cleaned it and put a band-aid on it.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom and dad. I was careless. I should have walked and not run," Ben said.
+
+"It's okay, Ben. We're glad you're not badly hurt. But you need to be more careful next time. The pool can be dangerous if you don't follow the rules," mom said.
+
+"I know, mom. I will be more careful. I promise," Ben said.
+
+They gave him a kiss and a hug. They told him he was brave and strong. They went back to the pool and enjoyed the rest of the day. They had a wonderful time at the hotel.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their mom's clothes. They liked to try on different hats and scarves and pretend to be different people. Lily found an enormous coat that was red and soft. She put it on and wrapped it around her. She felt very warm and cozy.
+
+"Look at me, Ben!" she said. "I am a big bear!"
+
+Ben laughed and said, "You are not a bear, you are Lily! Bears don't wear coats!"
+
+"Yes, they do!" Lily said. "This is my special bear coat. It has buttons!"
+
+She showed Ben the shiny buttons on the front of the coat. They were round and smooth and made a clicking sound when she pressed them.
+
+"Can I try it?" Ben asked.
+
+"OK, but be careful. It is very big," Lily said.
+
+She took off the coat and gave it to Ben. Ben tried to put it on, but it was too big for him. The sleeves were too long and the collar was too high. He could not see anything.
+
+"Help, Lily! I can't see!" he said.
+
+Lily giggled and said, "You are a silly bear, Ben! You have to fold the sleeves and the collar. Like this."
+
+She helped Ben fold the sleeves and the collar of the coat so that they fit him better. She also buttoned the coat for him.
+
+"There, now you can see!" she said.
+
+"Thank you, Lily!" Ben said. "Now I am a big bear too!"
+
+They hugged each other and roared like bears. They had fun playing with the enormous coat.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toy cars. But they do not like to share. One day, they have a big fight over a red car.
+
+"I want the red car!" Anna says. "It is mine!"
+
+"No, it is mine!" Ben says. "You have the blue car!"
+
+They pull and tug at the red car. They make a lot of noise. They do not listen to their mom.
+
+"Stop fighting, Anna and Ben!" their mom says. "You have many cars. You can play with different cars."
+
+But Anna and Ben do not want different cars. They only want the red car. They complain and cry.
+
+Their mom has an idea. She takes the red car and puts it in a box. She shakes the box. She makes a funny motion with her hands.
+
+"What is in the box?" she asks. "Do you want to see?"
+
+Anna and Ben are curious. They stop crying. They nod their heads.
+
+Their mom opens the box. She shows them the red car. But the red car is not the same. It has stickers and glitter on it. It looks different.
+
+"Wow!" Anna says. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Yuck!" Ben says. "It is so ugly!"
+
+Anna smiles. She takes the red car. She says thank you to her mom.

+
+They hug and make up. They play with their cars. They share and have fun.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to go to the market with Mom. The market has many things to see and smell and touch. Anna likes the fruits and Ben likes the toys.

+
+Anna and Ben are very happy. They run to the market and look around. Anna sees a big red apple. It looks juicy and sweet. She gives her coin to the man and takes the apple. She says, "I like this apple. I will keep it."
+
+Ben sees a small blue car. It has wheels and doors and windows. He gives his coin to the woman and takes the car. He says, "I like this car. I will keep it."

+They go back to Mom and show her what they bought. Mom smiles and says, "You made good choices. I am glad you are happy with your things. Now let's go home and enjoy them."
+
+Anna and Ben hug Mom and say, "Thank you, Mom. We love you. And we love our things. We will keep them forever."
+Lily loved rain. She liked to splash in puddles and catch drops on her tongue. She had a pink umbrella with flowers on it. She always took it with her when it rained.
+
+One day, she saw dark clouds in the sky. She was excited. She ran to get her umbrella and put on her boots. She asked her mom if she could go outside. Her mom said yes, but be careful.
+
+Lily went outside and opened her umbrella. She felt happy. She jumped in a big puddle and laughed. She saw a worm on the ground and said hello. She walked around the yard and looked for more puddles.
+
+But then, she heard a loud noise. It was thunder. She saw a bright flash. It was lightning. She was scared. She did not like thunder and lightning. They were noisy and scary. She wanted to go back inside.
+
+She ran to the door, but it was locked. She forgot to take her key. She knocked on the door and called for her mom. But her mom did not hear her. She was in the kitchen, making cookies. Lily was worried. She did not know what to do.
+
+She looked around and saw a big tree. She thought maybe she could hide under it. She ran to the tree and closed her umbrella. She sat under the branches and hugged her umbrella. She hoped the thunder and lightning would go away soon.
+
+She waited for a long time. She felt cold and wet. She wished she had her cookies and milk. She wished she had her mom. She started to cry.
+
+Then, she heard a voice. It was her mom. She came outside and saw Lily under the tree. She was surprised and worried. She ran to Lily and hugged her. She asked her what happened. Lily told her everything.
+
+Her mom said she was sorry. She said she did not know Lily was outside. She said she was looking for her and heard her cry. She said she was proud of her for being brave. She said she loved her.
+
+She took Lily inside and dried her off. She gave her cookies and milk. She read her a story. She kissed her goodnight. Lily felt better. She still loved rain, but she liked her mom more. She said thank you and I love you. She closed her eyes and slept.
+Lila and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big rock with something shiny under it. They want to see what it is.

+"Can you lift the rock?" Lila asks Ben.
+
+"I can try," Ben says. He pushes the rock with his hands, but it is too heavy. He grunts and sweats.
+
+"Let me help you," Lila says. She puts her hands next to Ben's and they push together. The rock moves a little bit. They see a shiny thing under it. It is a jewel!
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Lila says. "It is so pretty and sparkly. It is a jewel!"
+
+"Maybe it is magic," Ben says. "Maybe it can make wishes come true."
+
+They pick up the jewel and hold it in their hands. It feels warm and smooth. They look at each other and smile.
+
+"What do you wish for?" Lila asks Ben.
+
+"I wish for a big ice cream cone," Ben says.
+
+"I wish for a new doll," Lila says.
+
+They close their eyes and make their wishes. They wait for a moment and open their eyes. Nothing happens.
+
+"Maybe the jewel is broken," Ben says.
+
+"Maybe we have to be calm and quiet," Lila says.
+
+They sit down on the grass and hold the jewel in their hands. They breathe slowly and calmly. They think of their wishes. They wait for a long time.
+
+Then they hear a voice behind them.
+
+"Hello, children. What are you doing with my jewel?"
+Tom and Mia were very hot and thirsty. They were walking in the sand with their dad. They wanted to find water and shade. They saw a big hill with green trees and a blue lake. They ran towards it.
+
+"Look, dad, an oasis!" Tom shouted.
+
+"Wow, it's beautiful!" Mia said.
+
+"Let's go and swim in the lake!" dad said.
+
+They took off their shoes and clothes and jumped into the water. It was cool and refreshing. They splashed and laughed and played. They saw some fish and frogs and birds. They had fun.
+
+But then Tom saw something strange. He saw a big rock with a hole in it. He was curious. He swam closer to the hole. He heard a noise. It sounded like a roar.
+
+"Tom, come back!" Mia called. "What are you doing?"
+
+"I want to see what's in the hole!" Tom said. "Maybe it's a treasure or a monster!"
+
+"Tom, don't be silly!" dad said. "It could be dangerous!"
+
+But Tom did not listen. He swam into the hole. It was dark and mysterious. He felt scared. He wished he had stayed with Mia and dad. He wanted to go back. But he could not. Something was blocking the hole. It was big and furry and had sharp teeth. It was a lion!
+
+"Help!" Tom screamed. "There's a lion in the hole!"
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the sand. They make castles and hills and tunnels. They have fun.
+
+One day, a big wave comes. It is powerful. It breaks their sand castles and hills and tunnels. Lila and Ben are sad. They cry.
+
+A man sees them. He has a bag. He says, "Do not cry. I have something for you." He opens his bag. He takes out some powder. It is colorful. It is magic.
+
+He says, "This powder can make anything you want. Just sprinkle it on the sand and say what you want." He gives some powder to Lila and Ben. They smile.
+
+Lila sprinkles some powder on the sand. She says, "I want a princess castle." The powder glows. A princess castle appears. It is pink and shiny. Lila is happy.
+
+Ben sprinkles some powder on the sand. He says, "I want a pirate ship." The powder glows. A pirate ship appears. It is black and scary. Ben is happy.
+
+Lila and Ben play with their new toys. They thank the man. He says, "You are welcome. But be careful. The powder does not last long. When the sun sets, it will disappear." He leaves.
+
+Lila and Ben do not care. They have fun. They forget about the wave. They are friends.
+Lily wanted to make a gift for her mom. She had a big piece of paper, some crayons, and a pair of scissors. She decided to make a card with a bow on it. She thought that would be original and pretty.
+
+She drew a heart on the paper and wrote "I love you, Mom" inside. Then she cut out the heart and folded it in half. She looked for something to make a bow with. She saw a ribbon on the floor. It was red and shiny. She picked it up and tried to tie it into a bow.
+
+She asked her brother Ben for help. He was playing with his blocks. He said, "What are you doing, Lily?"
+
+"I'm making a card for Mom. Can you help me make a bow?" Lily said.
+
+"Sure, I can help you. But first, we need to measure the ribbon. If it's too long, it won't look good. If it's too short, it won't tie. Do you have a ruler?" Ben said.
+
+Lily shook her head. She didn't have a ruler. She said, "How can we measure the ribbon without a ruler?"
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He said, "We can use your hand. Hold the ribbon in your hand and stretch it out. Then count how many fingers it covers. That's how long it is."
+
+Lily did what Ben said. She held the ribbon in her hand and stretched it out. She counted, "One, two, three, four, five. The ribbon is five fingers long."
+
+Ben said, "That's good. Now, we can make a bow. Watch me. I'll show you how." He took the ribbon and made a loop on one end. Then he made another loop on the other end. He crossed the loops and pulled them tight. He said, "See? That's a bow. Now, you try it."
+
+Lily tried to copy Ben. She made two loops and crossed them. But she didn't pull them tight enough. The bow fell apart. She said, "Oh no, I can't do it. It's too hard."
+
+Ben said, "Don't give up, Lily. You can do it. Try again. And remember, pull the loops tight."
+
+Lily tried again. She made two loops and crossed them. This time, she pulled them tight. The bow stayed together. She said, "I did it! I made a bow! Thank you, Ben. You're a good brother."
+
+Ben smiled and said, "You're welcome, Lily. You're a good sister. And your card is very original and pretty. Mom will love it."
+Sara and Tom are going to the airport with Mom and Dad. They are going to fly in a big plane to see Grandma and Grandpa. Sara and Tom are very happy and excited.
+
+They pack their bags and toys and get in the car. Mom and Dad drive for a long time. They see many cars and trucks and trees and houses on the way. Sara and Tom sing songs and play games in the back seat.
+
+They get to the airport and see many people and planes. Mom and Dad check in their bags and get their tickets. They hold Sara and Tom's hands and walk to the gate. They see a big old plane with a red and blue tail. That is their plane.
+
+They part with their bags and toys. They give them to a man who puts them on a cart. He says he will take them to the plane. Sara and Tom hope their bags and toys will be safe and not get lost.
+
+They board the plane and find their seats. They buckle their seat belts and put on their headphones. They hear a voice that says welcome and tells them what to do. They look out the window and see the airport and the sky. They feel the plane move and go faster and faster. They feel the plane lift off and fly. They are on their way to Grandma and Grandpa. They smile and hug Mom and Dad. They are very happy and excited.
+Lila and Tom were playing in the big house. They liked to explore the rooms and find new things. One day, they found a door that was hidden behind a curtain. They opened the door and saw a dark and narrow chamber. They wondered what was inside.
+
+"Let's go in and see," Tom said. He was brave and curious.
+
+"I don't know, Tom. It looks scary," Lila said. She was frightened and cautious.
+
+"Come on, Lila. It will be fun. Maybe we will find a treasure or a secret," Tom said. He took Lila's hand and pulled her into the chamber.
+
+They had to crawl on their hands and knees because the chamber was very low. They could not see much because there was no light. They heard strange noises and felt cold air. They wished they had a flashlight or a candle.
+
+"Tom, I want to go back. I don't like it here," Lila said. She was shivering and crying.
+
+"OK, OK, Lila. Don't cry. We will go back. I'm sorry I made you come here," Tom said. He was sorry and kind.
+
+They turned around and crawled back to the door. But when they reached the door, they saw that it was closed. They tried to push it, but it did not move. They tried to shout, but no one heard them. They were trapped in the chamber. They were very frightened and alone.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to help their mom with the animals on the farm. Every Sunday, they would feed the chickens, the pigs, and the cow. They would carry buckets of corn, apples, and hay and give them to the hungry animals.
+
+One Sunday, Lily and Tom were careless. They did not pay attention to where they were going. They mixed up the buckets and gave the wrong food to the wrong animals. The chickens got hay, the pigs got corn, and the cow got apples.
+
+The animals were confused and unhappy. They made loud noises and spit out the food. Lily and Tom heard their mom coming and realized their mistake. They were scared and sorry.
+
+"What are you doing, children?" their mom asked. "Why did you feed the animals the wrong food?"
+
+Lily and Tom hung their heads and said, "We are sorry, mom. We were careless. We did not look at the buckets. We made a mess."
+
+Their mom was not angry, but she was disappointed. She said, "You have to be careful, children. Feeding the animals is an important job. You have to give them the right food, or they will get sick. Next time, pay attention and do it right."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded and said, "We will, mom. We will be careful next time. We love the animals and we want them to be happy."
+
+Their mom smiled and said, "I love you, too, children. Now, let's clean up this mess and feed the animals again. And then we can have some cake as a treat."
+
+Lily and Tom cheered and hugged their mom. They learned their lesson and never mixed up the buckets again. They fed the animals every Sunday and made them happy. And they enjoyed their cake, too.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with horses. They go to a farm with their moms. The farm has a big stable. The stable has many horses.
+
+Lily and Tom want to ride a horse. They ask their moms. Their moms say yes, but they have to be careful. They have to wear helmets and boots. They have to listen to the farmer.
+
+The farmer helps Lily and Tom. He picks a horse for each of them. Lily gets a brown horse. Tom gets a black horse. The horses are lively. They neigh and trot. The farmer shows Lily and Tom how to hold the reins and sit on the saddle.
+
+Lily and Tom follow the farmer. They ride the horses around the farm. They see cows, sheep, pigs and chickens. They see fields, trees, flowers and ponds. They have fun. They smile and laugh.
+
+After a while, they go back to the stable. They thank the farmer and the horses. They give the horses some carrots and apples. They pet the horses and say goodbye. They complete their ride. They are happy. They hug their moms. They want to come back again.
+Mira and Ravi were best friends. They liked to play outside and look at the sky. Sometimes they saw birds, clouds and planes. Sometimes they saw the moon and stars.
+
+One night, Mira and Ravi were in their tents. They had a flashlight and a book of stories. They took turns to read the stories and shine the flashlight on the pictures. They saw stories of animals, fairies and pirates.
+
+"Look, Ravi, a star!" Mira said, pointing at the sky. "It is bright and shiny. I wish I had a star of my own."
+
+"Me too, Mira. Stars are beautiful and special. Maybe we can catch one someday." Ravi said.
+
+They heard a voice from the sky. It was a star. The star was lonely and wanted to make friends. The star said, "Hello, Mira and Ravi. I heard your wish. I can lend you some of my light and sparkle. You can keep it in your tents and have fun with it. But you have to promise to give it back to me in the morning. Can you do that?"
+
+Mira and Ravi were surprised and happy. They said, "Yes, star, we can do that. Thank you for lending us your light and sparkle. You are very kind and dependable. We will be your friends."
+
+The star smiled and sent some of its light and sparkle to Mira and Ravi. They put it in their tents and played with it. They made shapes, shadows and patterns. They laughed and sang. They had a wonderful night.
+
+In the morning, Mira and Ravi remembered their promise. They said goodbye to the star and thanked it for lending them its light and sparkle. They gave it back to the star. The star was happy and grateful. The star said, "You are very good and dependable. You kept your promise. You are my friends. I will always watch over you and shine for you. Goodbye, Mira and Ravi."
+
+Mira and Ravi waved to the star and went back to their homes. They felt warm and happy. They had a new friend in the sky. They knew they would see the star again. They knew the star would lend them its light and sparkle again. They knew the star was dependable.
+Lily and Tom are playing in the park. They see a big slide. They want to go on the slide. But there is a problem. The slide has a seat that moves up and down. The seat is for two kids. One kid sits on one side, and one kid sits on the other side. The seat goes up when one kid is heavier, and down when the other kid is heavier.
+
+Lily and Tom are not the same size. Lily is bigger than Tom. She weighs more than Tom. When they sit on the seat, Lily goes down and Tom goes up. Tom is too high. He is scared. He wants to get off the seat. Lily is too low. She is bored. She wants to have fun.
+
+They have an idea. They look for something to make Tom heavier. They see a big rock. It is hidden behind a bush. They go to the bush and get the rock. Tom holds the rock in his lap. He weighs more now. They sit on the seat again. The seat moves a little bit. Lily goes up a little bit, and Tom goes down a little bit. They are happy. They can slide now. They slide down together. They laugh and smile. They have fun.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big slide. Lily wanted to go on the slide, but Tom was scared.
+
+"Come on, Tom, it is fun!" Lily said. "You can go after me."
+
+"No, Lily, it is too high. I do not want to go." Tom said.
+
+Lily did not listen. She ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. She reached the top and looked down. She saw Tom waiting at the exit. She smiled and slid down.
+
+But the slide was too fast. Lily could not stop. She hit Tom with a loud bang. They both fell to the ground. They cried and cried.
+
+A lady came and saw them. She was angry. She asked them what happened.
+
+"Lily pushed me!" Tom said. He was not honest. He wanted to blame Lily.
+
+"No, I did not! He was in the way!" Lily said. She was honest. She told the truth.
+
+The lady did not know who to believe. She took them to their moms. Their moms were mad. They scolded them and took them home. They did not let them play together anymore.
+
+Lily and Tom were sad. They lost their friend. They wished they had been more careful. They learned a hard lesson.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play with their cat, Milo. Milo is soft and gray. He likes to chase yarn. Sara and Ben have a big ball of yarn. They roll it on the floor. Milo runs after it. He pounces on it. He bites it. He makes it messy.
+
+"Look, Milo is having fun!" Sara says.
+
+"Yes, he is. But we have to be quiet. Mom is sleeping. She is tired. She worked all night." Ben says.
+
+They whisper to each other. They watch Milo play. They giggle softly.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud noise. It is the doorbell. It rings and rings. Milo stops playing. He looks scared. He runs away. He hides under the sofa.
+
+"Who is it?" Sara asks.
+
+"I don't know. Let's go see." Ben says.
+
+They get up. They leave the yarn on the floor. They go to the door. They open it. They see a man. He has a big box. He smiles.
+
+"Hello, kids. I have a delivery for your mom. Can you let me in?" He says.
+
+Sara and Ben look at each other. They don't know the man. They don't know what to do. They remember what mom told them.
+
+"Sorry, mister. We can't let you in. We don't know you. Mom is sleeping. She will wake up soon. You can come back later." Sara says.
+
+The man frowns. He puts the box down. He walks away. He looks angry.
+
+Sara and Ben close the door. They lock it. They feel proud. They did the right thing. They go back to the living room. They find Milo. They hug him. They play with him. They wait for mom to wake up. They are quiet and happy.
+Lily and Sam are friends. They like to play together. One day, they go to the park. They see a big slide. Lily wants to go on the slide, but Sam is scared.
+
+"Can I borrow your hat?" Lily asks Sam. "It is very sunny and I do not want to get hot."
+
+"OK, you can borrow my hat," Sam says. He gives Lily his hat. It is blue and has a star on it. Lily puts the hat on her head. It is too big for her. It covers her eyes.
+
+"Oops, this hat does not fit me," Lily says. She laughs. She gives the hat back to Sam. "Thank you for letting me borrow your hat."
+
+"You are welcome," Sam says. He puts the hat back on his head. It fits him well.
+
+Lily and Sam go to the slide. Lily goes first. She slides down fast and has fun. She shouts, "Whee!"
+
+Sam watches Lily. He wants to try the slide too. He is still scared, but he is brave. He goes after Lily. He slides down slowly and carefully. He smiles. He says, "Yay!"
+
+Lily and Sam are happy. They hug each other. They go to the bench. They have yogurt for snack. Lily has strawberry yogurt. Sam has banana yogurt. They share their yogurt with each other. They say, "Mmm, this is yummy!"
+
+Lily and Sam are good friends. They like to play together. They like to borrow and share. They like to have fun. They are not scared of the slide anymore. They are proud of themselves.
+Tom and Sue were hungry. They wanted to eat a healthy meal. They saw a big bowl of fruit on the table. It looked yummy.
+
+But Mom said, "No, you can't eat that. That is for later. You have to eat your soup and bread first. They are good for you."
+
+Tom and Sue did not like soup and bread. They were boring and bland. They wanted to eat the fruit. They waited for Mom to move to the other room. Then they ran to the table and grabbed the fruit.
+
+They ate the apples, the bananas, the grapes, and the oranges. They ate and ate until the bowl was empty. They felt happy and full.
+
+But then they felt sick. Their tummies hurt. They felt dizzy and hot. They had eaten too much fruit. They had eaten the fruit that Mom was saving for the cake. The fruit had sugar and spice on it. It was not healthy. It was bad for them.
+
+Mom came back and saw the empty bowl. She saw Tom and Sue on the floor. She was angry and worried. She called the doctor. The doctor came and gave them medicine. He said they had to stay in bed for a long time. They had to miss the cake and the party. They had to learn their lesson.
+
+Tom and Sue were sorry. They wished they had listened to Mom. They wished they had eaten their soup and bread. They wished they had not eaten the fruit. They had made a big mistake. They had a bad ending.
+Lily and Sam were friends who liked to play pretend. They would imagine they were different animals or people and act out stories. One day, they decided to pretend they were doctors and nurses who helped sick people.
+
+Lily put on a white coat and a stethoscope and said, "I am Doctor Lily. I will listen to your heart and lungs and make you feel better." Sam put on a green hat and a bandage and said, "I am Nurse Sam. I will give you medicine and a hug."
+
+They found a teddy bear and a doll and put them on a couch. They took turns examining them and making up problems. "This teddy bear has a sore throat. He needs some honey and water," Lily said. "This doll has a broken arm. She needs a cast and a sticker," Sam said.
+
+They had fun playing pretend, but they also learned some things. They learned that doctors and nurses are kind and helpful. They learned that some people have different problems and need different care. They learned that they had to be organized and careful when they played pretend.
+
+They also learned to be thankful for their own health and their own lungs. They remembered that some people have trouble breathing and need machines or tubes to help them. They remembered that their lungs were important and they had to take care of them. They remembered to breathe deeply and to cough when they needed to.
+
+They finished playing pretend and put away their toys. They hugged each other and said, "We are good friends. We are good doctors and nurses. We are good at imagining. We are happy and healthy."
+Sara and Ben liked to play with blocks. They liked to design towers with different colors and shapes. They wanted to see how high they could make them.
+
+One day, they found a big box of blocks in the basement. They were very happy and carried them to the living room. They started to build a huge tower on the carpet. They used all the blocks they could find.
+
+"Look, Sara, our tower is taller than us!" Ben said.
+
+"Yes, it is very tall and pretty. I like the red and blue blocks on top," Sara said.
+
+They were very proud of their tower. They wanted to show it to their mom and dad. But they did not know that their cat, Fluffy, was hiding behind the couch. Fluffy was bored and curious. He saw the tower and wanted to play with it.
+
+He jumped out from behind the couch and ran towards the tower. He pounced on the blocks and knocked them down. The tower crashed to the floor with a loud noise.
+
+Sara and Ben were scared. They screamed and ran to their mom and dad. They told them what happened.
+
+"Oh, no, your tower! I'm sorry, Fluffy was naughty. He did not mean to ruin your design," their mom said.
+
+"It's okay, mom. We can build another tower. But this time, we will lock Fluffy in the bedroom," Ben said.
+
+Sara and Ben hugged their mom and dad. They were not scared anymore. They went back to the living room and picked up the blocks. They decided to design a new tower, but not as tall as the first one. They also put some toys around it to protect it from Fluffy. They hoped he would not bother them again.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play with blocks. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes. They liked to build towers and houses and cars with their blocks.
+
+One day, they decided to have a contest. They wanted to see who could build the highest tower with their blocks. They each picked a spot on the floor and started to stack their blocks. They tried to make their towers strong and steady.
+
+Lily saw that Ben's tower was taller than hers. She felt sad and jealous. She wanted to win the contest. She looked around and saw a bottle of wine on the table. She had an idea. She took the bottle and poured some wine on Ben's tower. The wine made the blocks wet and sticky. Ben's tower fell down with a loud crash.
+
+Ben saw what Lily did. He felt angry and hurt. He shouted at Lily. "Why did you do that? That was not nice! You ruined my tower!" He threw some blocks at Lily. Lily threw some blocks back at him. They started to fight and cry.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw the mess on the floor and the wine on the table. She saw Lily and Ben fighting and crying. She felt disappointed and upset. She said to them. "What is going on here? Why are you fighting? Why did you spill the wine? You know you are not supposed to touch that!"
+
+Lily and Ben stopped fighting and crying. They felt ashamed and sorry. They told Mom what happened. They said they were sorry. Mom said to them. "You both made a mistake. You should not have a contest that makes you feel sad and jealous. You should not add wine to your blocks. That is not how you play with them. You should not be angry and hurt your friend. That is not how you treat them. You should be kind and share your blocks. That is how you have fun and make friends."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and hugged Mom. They said they understood. They said they were sorry to each other. They cleaned up the mess and the wine. They decided to play with their blocks together. They built a big house with their blocks. They invited Mom to join them. They had fun and were happy.
+Tom was a restless boy. He did not like to sit still or play with his toys. He wanted to see new things and have fun. One day, he saw a big tree in the park. He wanted to climb it and see what was on top.
+
+He ran to the tree and grabbed a branch. He pulled himself up and looked around. He saw birds and squirrels and leaves. He smiled and climbed higher. He felt like a king of the tree.
+
+But then he heard his mom call his name. She sounded worried and angry. She told him to come down right now. Tom did not want to go. He wanted to stay in the tree. He ignored his mom and climbed higher.
+
+He did not see the hole in the branch. He stepped on it and slipped. He fell down and hit the ground. He cried and hurt his arm. His mom ran to him and hugged him. She said he was very naughty and scared her. She said he should not wander off and climb trees without her.
+
+Tom felt sorry and sad. He said he was sorry and he loved her. His mom said she loved him too and took him to the doctor. The doctor gave him a bandage and a sticker. He said Tom was brave and lucky. He said he should be careful and listen to his mom.
+
+Tom learned his lesson. He did not wander off and climb trees anymore. He played with his toys and his mom. He was still restless, but he was also happy and safe.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play in the forest. They had a big tree house with toys and books. They also had a dog named Spot who followed them everywhere.
+
+One day, they found a big cake in the tree house. It had pink frosting and sprinkles. Lily and Tom were very happy. They wanted to eat the cake.
+
+"Who made this cake for us?" Lily asked.
+
+"Maybe Mom or Dad," Tom said. "Let's share it with Spot."
+
+They cut the cake into three pieces and gave one to Spot. He wagged his tail and licked the frosting.
+
+But then, they heard a loud voice. It was their neighbor, Mrs. Green. She was very angry.
+
+"That's my cake!" she shouted. "You spoiled brats! You stole my cake from my window!"
+
+Lily and Tom were scared. They did not know the cake was hers. They did not see the window.
+
+"We are sorry, Mrs. Green," Lily said. "We did not know. We thought it was a gift."
+
+"You thought wrong," Mrs. Green said. "Now you have to pay for it. Give me your toys and books."
+
+Lily and Tom did not want to give her their toys and books. They loved them very much. They started to cry.
+
+Spot saw them crying. He did not like Mrs. Green. He barked at her and jumped on her. He made her fall on the cake. The cake was all over her face and clothes.
+
+Mrs. Green screamed. She was very mad. She tried to wipe the cake off, but it was too sticky.
+
+Lily and Tom stopped crying. They laughed at Mrs. Green. They thought she looked funny.
+
+"Go away, Mrs. Green," Tom said. "You are not nice. You are a mean old lady."
+
+Mrs. Green got up and ran away. She was very embarrassed. She did not want anyone to see her.
+
+Lily and Tom hugged Spot. They thanked him for saving them. They gave him another piece of cake. He was a good dog.
+
+They decided to leave the forest and go home. They did not want to play in the tree house anymore. They wanted to be with Mom and Dad. They hoped they would not see Mrs. Green again.
+Lily was a fat cat who lived in a big house. She liked to eat a lot of food and sleep on the sofa. She did not like to play with the other cats or the children. She hated them and was mean to them.
+
+One day, a new cat came to the house. His name was Tom and he was thin and fast. He liked to play with the other cats and the children. He was nice to them and they liked him. Lily hated Tom and was jealous of him.
+
+Lily wanted to get rid of Tom. She had a bad idea. She found some poison in the garage and put it in Tom's food. She thought Tom would eat it and die. She was happy and waited for Tom to come.
+
+But Tom did not come. He was outside playing with the other cats and the children. He did not see his food. He did not smell his food. He did not want his food.
+
+Lily was hungry and bored. She saw Tom's food and thought it was hers. She did not see the poison. She did not smell the poison. She did not know the poison. She ate the food and the poison.
+
+Lily felt sick and dizzy. She felt pain in her tummy and her head. She tried to meow but no one heard her. She fell on the floor and did not move. She died.
+
+Tom came back and saw Lily. He was sad and scared. He did not know what happened. He did not know Lily hated him. He did not know Lily tried to kill him. He did not know Lily killed herself. He cried and ran away.
+Sam and Lily like to play outside when it rains. They put on their boots and coats and run to the park. There they find many puddles to jump in. They splash and laugh and have fun.
+
+But then they see a big dog. The dog is fierce. It barks and growls and shows its teeth. It runs towards them. Sam and Lily are scared. They do not want the dog to bite them.
+
+"Help! Help!" they shout. "Go away, dog! Go away!"
+
+They look for a place to hide. They see a big tree. They run to the tree and climb up. The dog cannot reach them. It jumps and barks, but it cannot make them come down.
+
+They wait for the dog to leave. They hope someone will come and take the dog away. They hug each other and say:
+
+"Don't worry, Lily. We are safe here. The dog cannot hurt us."
+
+"I know, Sam. But I don't like the dog. It is mean and fierce. I want to go home."
+
+"Me too, Lily. Me too."
+Sam liked to play with his blue kangaroo toy. He named it Roo and took it everywhere. He hugged it at night and pretended it could hop and talk. One day, he went to the park with his mom and Roo. He saw a big slide and wanted to try it.
+
+He climbed up the ladder and sat on the slide. He held Roo in his hand and said, "Are you ready, Roo? We are going to have fun!" He pushed himself down the slide and felt the wind in his hair. He smiled and laughed.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Roo slipped out of his hand and flew in the air. Sam watched in horror as Roo landed on the grass, near a big dog. The dog saw Roo and ran towards it. It barked and sniffed Roo. It opened its mouth and was about to bite Roo.
+
+Sam was scared and sad. He wanted to save Roo, but he was too far away. He shouted, "No, no, no! Leave Roo alone! He is my friend!" He ran down the slide and towards the dog. He hoped he was not too late.
+
+But then, something good happened. A man saw what was going on and ran to help. He was the dog's owner and he knew his dog was not nice to toys. He grabbed the dog's collar and pulled it away from Roo. He said, "Bad dog, bad dog! Drop it, drop it!" The dog let go of Roo and whimpered.
+
+Sam reached Roo and picked it up. He checked if it was okay. It had some dirt and saliva on it, but it was not torn or broken. Sam was happy and relieved. He hugged Roo and said, "I'm sorry, Roo. I'm glad you are safe. You are the best kangaroo ever!" He thanked the man and his mom. He learned to be more careful with his toys. He never let go of Roo again.
+Tim and Sue like to play in the park. They observe many things there. They see birds, flowers, trees and bugs. They also see rocks. Some rocks are big and some are small. Some are smooth and some are rough.
+
+One day, they find a modest rock. It is not too big or too small. It is not too smooth or too rough. It is brown and has some spots. Tim and Sue think it is a nice rock.
+
+"Can I have it?" Tim asks Sue.
+
+"No, I saw it first!" Sue says.
+
+"But I like it too!" Tim says.
+
+They start to pull the rock from each other. They are not happy. They are angry.
+
+A man sees them. He is sitting on a bench. He is reading a book. He comes to them.
+
+"What are you doing?" he asks.
+
+"We want this rock!" Tim and Sue say.
+
+"Why do you want it?" he asks.
+
+"Because it is a nice rock!" they say.
+
+The man smiles. He says, "It is a nice rock, but it is not the only rock. There are many rocks in the park. Why don't you look for another one? Maybe you can find one that is nicer or more interesting. Then you can share your rocks and observe them together. That would be more fun, don't you think?"
+
+Tim and Sue think. They look at the rock. They look at the man. They look at each other. They nod.
+
+"OK, we will do that," they say.
+
+They give the rock to the man. They say, "Thank you."
+
+The man says, "You're welcome. Have fun."
+
+Tim and Sue run to look for more rocks. They are happy. They are friends.
+Anna and Ben were best friends. They liked to play together every day. They played with dolls, cars, blocks and books. They shared their toys and snacks. They had a lot of fun.
+
+One day, Anna said to Ben, "Let's play marry. You can be the groom and I can be the bride. We can wear nice clothes and have a cake and flowers."
+
+Ben said, "OK, that sounds playful. I like cake and flowers. But who will be the guests and the priest?"
+
+Anna said, "We can ask our friends and our teddy bears. And we can use this book as the priest. It has big words and pictures."
+
+Ben said, "All right, let's do it. But we have to be quiet. We don't want our moms and dads to know. They might get angry."
+
+So Anna and Ben got dressed in their nice clothes. They took their friends and their teddy bears to the backyard. They put the book on a chair and pretended it was the priest. They said their vows and exchanged rings. They cut the cake and threw the flowers. They kissed and hugged. They felt very happy. They thought they were a success.
+
+But then, their moms and dads came home. They saw Anna and Ben in the backyard. They saw their nice clothes and their mess. They saw the book and the rings. They were very angry.
+
+They shouted, "What are you doing? How dare you play marry? You are too young for that. You are in big trouble. Give us the book and the rings. Go to your rooms. No more playing together. Ever."
+
+Anna and Ben felt very sad. They cried and said sorry. They gave back the book and the rings. They went to their rooms. They could not see each other anymore. They missed each other a lot. They were not a success. They had a bad ending.
+Poppy was a tall girl who liked to create things. She had many crayons, papers, scissors and glue. She made pictures, cards, hats and dolls. She was very happy when she created something new.
+
+One day, she wanted to create a poppy flower. She loved poppies because they were red and pretty. She found a red paper and cut out a circle. She cut out four petals and glued them to the circle. She made a black dot in the middle. She found a green paper and cut out a stem and a leaf. She glued them to the flower.
+
+She showed her poppy to her mom. "Look, mom, I made a poppy!" she said proudly.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged her. "That's a beautiful poppy, Poppy!" she said. "You are very creative and clever. I love your poppy and I love you."
+
+Poppy felt warm and happy. She gave her mom the poppy and said, "I love you too, mom. Thank you for helping me create things."
+Anna and Ben are playing in the garden. They see a fly on a flower. Anna wants to catch the fly. She runs to the flower and tries to grab the fly with her hand. But the fly is too fast. It flies away.
+
+"Fly, come back!" Anna shouts. She chases the fly around the garden. Ben follows her. He laughs. He thinks it is fun.
+
+The fly lands on another flower. Anna and Ben run to the flower. They try to catch the fly again. But the fly is too smart. It flies away again.
+
+"Fly, stop!" Anna cries. She is tired and sad. She sits on the grass and sighs. Ben sits next to her. He hugs her.
+
+"Don't be sad, Anna. The fly is just playing. Maybe it will come back later. Look, the sky is clear and blue. We can see the sun and the clouds. They are pretty. Do you want to make shapes with the clouds?" Ben asks.
+
+Anna looks at the sky. She sees the sun and the clouds. She smiles. She nods.
+
+"OK, Ben. Let's make shapes with the clouds. Maybe we can find a fly shape. That would be funny." Anna says.
+
+Anna and Ben lie on the grass and look at the sky. They make shapes with the clouds. They see a bird, a star, a cat, a car, and a fly. They laugh. They are happy. The fly watches them from a tree. It buzzes. It is happy too.
+Sara and Ben are brother and sister. They live in a big house with their mom and dad. They like to play with their toys and read books. But sometimes they fight and make a mess.
+
+One day, Sara and Ben were playing with their blocks. They wanted to build a tower, but they had different ideas. Sara wanted to make it tall and thin. Ben wanted to make it wide and strong. They started to argue and push each other. Then they knocked over the tower and the blocks flew everywhere.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw the blocks all over the floor and Sara and Ben crying. She was angry and sad. She said, "Sara and Ben, you are not being nice to each other. You are not sharing and you are not listening. You made a big mess and you hurt each other's feelings. You need to say sorry and clean up. And you need to pray and ask God to help you be kind and gentle."
+
+Sara and Ben felt bad. They knew they did something wrong. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They said sorry to mom and helped her pick up the blocks. Then they knelt down and closed their eyes. They prayed and said, "Dear God, please forgive us for fighting and making a mess. Please help us to be nice and share and listen. Please help us to love each other and you. Thank you for our house and our family. Amen."
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. She said, "I'm proud of you, Sara and Ben. You learned a good lesson today. God loves you and he hears your prayers. He wants you to be happy and peaceful. Now, how about we read a story together?" Sara and Ben nodded and smiled. They followed mom to the couch and snuggled with her. They felt better and they thanked God for their house and their family.
+Sara and Tom were very happy. They were going to visit Grandma and Grandpa on Sunday. They had a big bag with clothes and toys. They wanted to unpack and play.
+
+But when they got to Grandma and Grandpa's house, they saw a lot of cars and people. They heard loud noises and sad voices. They saw Grandma and Grandpa crying. They did not understand.
+
+Mom and Dad told them to be quiet and serious. They said that Grandma and Grandpa's dog, Spot, had died. He was very old and sick. They said that the people and cars were there to say goodbye to Spot. They said that they would unpack later.
+
+Sara and Tom felt sorry for Grandma and Grandpa. They loved Spot too. He was a good dog. He liked to run and fetch and lick their faces. They wanted to hug Grandma and Grandpa and make them feel better.
+
+They waited until the people and cars left. Then they went to Grandma and Grandpa and gave them big hugs. They said that they missed Spot and that he was in heaven. Grandma and Grandpa smiled and thanked them. They said that they were glad that Sara and Tom were there. They said that they would unpack and play with them now.
+Lily and Max were playing with their blocks. They liked to build towers and bridges and castles. But Max was grumpy today. He did not want to share his blocks with Lily. He wanted to have all the red and blue ones for himself.
+
+"Give me that block!" he said to Lily, and grabbed a red block from her hand. Lily was sad and angry. She did not like it when Max was mean to her.
+
+"No, Max, that is my block!" she said, and tried to get it back. They pulled and pushed and shouted. Their tower fell down and their blocks scattered on the floor.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Lily and Max fighting over the blocks. She was not happy.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" she said. "Why are you fighting? You have plenty of blocks to play with. You need to share and be nice to each other."
+
+She picked up some blocks and gave them to Lily and Max. She made them sit on the couch and hug each other. She leaned her neck and kissed them both.
+
+"I love you, Lily and Max," she said. "But you have to learn to play together. Can you do that?"
+
+Lily and Max looked at each other. They felt sorry for making Mom upset. They nodded and said, "Yes, Mom."
+
+They hugged Mom and said, "We love you, too."
+
+Then they went back to their blocks and started to build a new tower. They shared their blocks and helped each other. They were not grumpy anymore. They were happy.
+A big dog and a small cat lived in a house with a human. The human loved both of them, but the big dog was mean to the small cat. He liked to tease her and chase her and make her scared. He thought he was better than her because he was bigger and stronger.
+
+One day, the human went out and left the big dog and the small cat alone. The big dog saw his chance to have some fun. He ran after the small cat and barked loudly. The small cat ran away and hid under the bed. The big dog followed her and tried to pull her out with his teeth. The small cat hissed and scratched his nose.
+
+"Stop it, you big bully!" the small cat said. "You are hurting me!"
+
+"I don't care!" the big dog said. "You are just a silly cat. You can't do anything. I can do whatever I want!"
+
+The big dog was wrong. He did not know that the human had set a trap for mice under the bed. The trap had a piece of cheese and a metal wire. When the big dog reached for the small cat, he touched the metal wire. The trap snapped and caught his paw. The big dog yelped in pain and tried to get free. But the trap was too strong. He was stuck.
+
+The small cat saw what happened and felt sorry for the big dog. She crawled out from under the bed and went to him. She licked his wound and tried to comfort him.
+
+"I'm sorry, you big dog," the small cat said. "You are not a bad dog. You are just a foolish dog. You should not tease me or anyone. You should be kind and gentle. That is what the human teaches us. That is what makes us wise."
+
+The big dog looked at the small cat and felt ashamed. He realized that he had been wrong and cruel. He wished he had been nicer to her and to the human. He wished he had been wise.
+
+But it was too late. The human came back and saw the mess. He was angry and sad. He took the big dog to the vet and gave him away. He never saw him again. He only kept the small cat, who was his loyal and loving friend. The big dog lost his home and his family because he was not wise. He was sorry, but he could not change what he had done. He learned his lesson the hard way.
+Sara likes to play in the garden. She likes to look at the flowers and the bugs. One day, she sees a big black beetle. She thinks it is pretty and shiny. She wants to bring it home and show it to her mom.
+
+She picks up the beetle and puts it in a jar. She runs to the house with the jar. She is happy. She thinks her mom will be happy too. She wants to make her mom smile.
+
+But when she shows the jar to her mom, her mom is not happy. She is scared. She does not like beetles. She tells Sara to take the beetle back to the garden. She says beetles belong in the garden, not in the house. She says beetles need air and dirt and plants to live. She says beetles are not toys.
+
+Sara is sad. She does not understand why her mom does not like the beetle. She thinks the beetle is nice and fun. She does not want to let it go. She wants to keep it as a friend.
+
+But then she looks at the beetle in the jar. She sees that the beetle is not happy. It is not moving. It is not shiny. It looks sad and tired. Sara feels sorry for the beetle. She realizes that her mom is right. She decides to bring the beetle back to the garden.
+
+She opens the jar and lets the beetle out. The beetle crawls on the ground. It finds a leaf and starts to eat. It looks happy. Sara smiles. She is happy too. She learns that sometimes, the best way to love something is to let it be free. She says goodbye to the beetle and thanks it for being her friend. She goes back to the house and hugs her mom. She tells her mom what she learned. Her mom is proud of her. She tells her she loves her. They are both happy.
+Anna and Ben are twins, but they like different things. Anna likes pink and purple, and Ben likes blue and green. Anna likes dolls and flowers, and Ben likes cars and dinosaurs. But they both like to make things with paper and tape.
+
+One day, they find a big box of colorful paper in the closet. They want to make something fun with it. Anna says, "Let's make a wrap for Mommy. She will be happy." Ben says, "OK, but I want to make a loop too. Loops are cool."
+
+They take some paper and tape and start to make a wrap. Anna chooses pink and purple paper and cuts it into squares. She tapes them together to make a big wrap. Ben chooses blue and green paper and cuts it into strips. He tapes them together to make a long loop.
+
+They finish their wrap and loop and go to find Mommy. They see her in the kitchen, making cookies. They run to her and say, "Mommy, Mommy, look what we made for you!" They show her their wrap and loop.
+
+Mommy smiles and hugs them. She says, "Wow, thank you, Anna and Ben. What a beautiful wrap and loop. You are so creative and thoughtful. I love them both. And I love you both. You are different, but you are both wonderful." She puts the wrap around her shoulders and the loop around her neck. She says, "Now I feel warm and cozy. And I have a surprise for you too. Come and see."
+
+She takes them to the table, where there are cookies and milk. She says, "Let's have a snack and share our stories. I want to hear how you made your wrap and loop." Anna and Ben are happy. They sit down and eat their cookies and milk. They tell Mommy how they made their wrap and loop with paper and tape. They laugh and talk and enjoy their time together. They are different, but they are a family.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play outside. They loved to listen to the sounds of nature, like the birds, the wind and the water. One day, they decided to go for a walk in the woods with their dog, Spot.
+
+"Look, Lily, a squirrel!" Tom said, pointing to a tree. "Let's follow it and see where it goes."
+
+"Okay, Tom, but don't go too far. We have to stay close to Spot," Lily said, holding his hand.
+
+They ran after the squirrel, laughing and shouting. They did not notice that they were leaving the path and going deeper into the woods. They did not hear Spot barking and trying to catch up with them. They did not see the big bear that was hiding behind a bush.
+
+The bear was hungry and angry. It did not like the noise that the twins were making. It came out of its hiding place and roared loudly. Lily and Tom stopped and turned around. They saw the bear and they were very scared.
+
+"Help, help!" they cried. "Spot, where are you?"
+
+But Spot was too far away to hear them. He was still on the path, looking for them. The bear was faster and stronger than the twins. It ran towards them and grabbed them with its paws. It bit them and hurt them. They screamed and cried, but no one came to help them.
+
+The bear dragged them to its den and ate them. It was full and happy. Lily and Tom were gone and sad. Spot never found them. He was alone and sad. The woods were quiet and sad. The end.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the snow. They wanted to make an igloo, like the ones they saw in a book. They rolled big balls of snow and stacked them up. They left a hole for the door. They were very proud of their igloo.
+
+But then, Max came by. Max was a big boy who liked to tease and bully. He saw the igloo and laughed. He said it was silly and ugly. He kicked some snow at it and made it fall apart. Ben and Lily were very sad and angry. They cried and shouted at Max.
+
+Max felt bad. He saw that he had hurt Ben and Lily's feelings. He realized that he had been mean and rude. He was ashamed of himself. He wanted to say sorry, but he did not know how.
+
+He thought of an idea. He went to his house and got some blankets and pillows. He came back to the snow and helped Ben and Lily rebuild their igloo. He covered it with the blankets and pillows to make it cozy and warm. He said he was sorry and asked if they could be friends.
+
+Ben and Lily smiled. They forgave Max and invited him to play with them. They went inside the igloo and had fun. They learned that it is better to be kind and share than to be mean and destroy.
+Ben was a tough boy who liked to wander. He did not like to stay in his room or play with his toys. He wanted to see new things and have fun. One day, he saw a big whip in his dad's closet. He thought it looked cool and wanted to try it.
+
+He took the whip and went outside. He saw a big tree and thought he could whip it. He swung the whip hard and made a loud noise. He felt strong and happy. He whipped the tree again and again. He did not see the bird's nest on the branch.
+
+The bird was angry and scared. It flew out of the nest and pecked Ben's head. Ben cried out and dropped the whip. He ran back to his house. He had a big bump on his head and felt sorry. He learned that whipping was not fun and that he should not wander with things that did not belong to him. He hugged his mom and said he was sorry. He went back to his room and played with his toys. He was a good boy.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play near the sea. They saw a big yacht with many flags and windows. They wanted to go inside and see what was there.
+
+"Let's go, Ben!" Anna said. "Maybe we can find some toys or candy."
+
+"No, Anna, that is naughty. The yacht is not ours. It belongs to someone else. They will be angry if we go inside." Ben said.
+
+But Anna did not listen. She ran to the yacht and climbed on the ladder. Ben followed her because he did not want to be alone. They sneaked into the yacht and looked around. They saw a big bed, a shiny table, a fluffy sofa and a TV.
+
+"Wow, this is so nice!" Anna said. "Let's watch some cartoons."
+
+She turned on the TV and saw a scary face. It was a man with a beard and a hat. He looked very angry and shouted at them.
+
+"Who are you? What are you doing here? Get out of my yacht, you naughty kids!"
+
+Anna and Ben were very scared. They ran to the door and tried to open it. But it was locked. They heard the man coming closer. They screamed for help.
+
+"Help, help, someone help us!"
+
+A lady heard them and came to the yacht. She saw the man and recognized him. He was her husband. She had a key and opened the door.
+
+"Tom, what are you doing? Why are you scaring these kids?" She asked.
+
+"They broke into my yacht. They are thieves. They touched my things." Tom said.
+
+"They are not thieves. They are just curious. They are only three years old. They did not know better. You should not be so mean to them." She said.
+
+She took Anna and Ben by the hand and led them out of the yacht. She apologized to them and gave them some cookies.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids. My husband is not always nice. He likes to scare people. He thinks it is funny. But it is not. It is naughty. You should not go into other people's yachts. It is dangerous. You could get hurt or lost. Do you understand?" She said.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They felt sorry for what they did. They thanked the lady and said they were sorry to the man. They went back to their parents and told them what happened. Their parents hugged them and said they were glad they were safe. They also said they were proud of them for telling the truth. They said they should not do it again. Anna and Ben agreed. They learned their lesson. They decided to play with their own toys and not to scare anyone.
+Sara liked to soar in the air with her fan. She would hold it in front of her face and run around the room, pretending she was a bird. She felt the wind on her skin and the fan made a nice sound.
+
+One day, she saw a big fan in the kitchen. It was on the ceiling and it was spinning very fast. Sara wanted to soar with that fan too. She climbed on a chair and reached for the fan. She thought it would be fun.
+
+But the fan was not fun. It was dangerous. It was sharp and hard and it hurt Sara's hand. She screamed and let go of the fan. She fell off the chair and hit her head on the floor. She saw blood on her hand and on the floor. It was disgusting.
+
+Her mom heard her scream and ran to the kitchen. She saw Sara on the floor and the fan on the ceiling. She was scared and angry. She picked up Sara and took her to the car. She said, "Sara, you are very naughty. You should never touch the fan. It is not a toy. It is for cooling the air. You could have lost your hand or your life. You are going to the doctor and you will get a big bandage and a big scolding. You will not soar with any fan ever again."
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. Today, they have a new game. They want to act like animals.
+
+"Let's act like lions," says Lily. "We can roar and run and chase each other."
+
+"OK," says Ben. "But where can we hide? Lions need shade to rest."
+
+They look around. They see a big tree. It has many leaves. It makes a lot of shade.
+
+"Let's go there," says Lily. "We can pretend it is our den."
+
+They run to the tree. They lie down under the leaves. They feel cool and cozy.
+
+"Roar!" says Lily. "I am a big lion. I am the king of the park."
+
+"Roar!" says Ben. "I am a big lion too. I am the king of the park."
+
+They laugh and roar. They have fun. They act like lions. They like their new game.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. They run, slide, swing and laugh. They see many things in the park. They see birds, flowers, dogs and bugs.

+
+"Hello, beetle," Lily says. "You are nice. Can we be your friends?"
+
+The beetle does not answer. It moves its legs and wings. It makes a small sound. Lily and Tom think it is funny.
+
+"Can we touch you, beetle?" Tom asks. "You are cool. Can we play with you?"
+
+The beetle does not like to be touched. It feels scared. It tries to fly away. But Lily and Tom are faster. They catch the beetle in their hands. They hold it tight.
+
+"Wow, we have a beetle!" Lily and Tom say. "We are happy. We have a new friend."
+
+The beetle is not happy. It is sad. It wants to be free. It wants to go back to the grass. It does not want to be a friend. It wants to be alone.
+Sara and Ben went to the mall with Mom. They liked to see the big shops and the colorful toys. Mom said they could have a treat if they were good.
+
+They saw a big stand with many balloons. Sara wanted a pink one and Ben wanted a blue one. Mom bought them each a balloon and tied them to their wrists. They were very happy.
+
+They walked to the food court and saw a man selling lemonade. Mom said they could have a cup of lemonade too. Sara and Ben liked lemonade. It was sweet and cold.
+
+But when they drank the lemonade, they made a funny face. It was not sweet and cold. It was sour and warm. They did not like it at all.
+
+"Yuck!" Sara said. "This lemonade is bad!"
+
+"Me too!" Ben said. "It hurts my tongue!"
+
+Mom tasted the lemonade and agreed. It was bad. She went to the man and told him. The man was sorry. He said he forgot to put sugar and ice in the lemonade. He gave Mom a new cup of lemonade. It was sweet and cold.
+
+Mom gave the new lemonade to Sara and Ben. They drank it and smiled. It was good.
+
+"Thank you, Mom!" Sara said. "You saved us from the sour lemonade!"
+
+"You're welcome, Sara!" Mom said. "You're a good girl!"
+
+"Thank you, Mom!" Ben said. "You're the best!"
+
+"You're welcome, Ben!" Mom said. "You're a good boy!"
+
+They hugged Mom and finished their lemonade. They were happy. They liked the mall.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a shiny thing in the grass. It is a diamond. Sara and Tom are very happy. They want to keep the diamond.
+
+But then, a big boy comes. He sees the diamond. He wants it too. He says, "Give me that diamond. It is mine." He tries to grab it from Sara and Tom.
+
+Sara and Tom are scared. They do not want to give the diamond. They say, "No, it is ours. We found it. Go away." They hold the diamond tight.
+
+The big boy is angry. He is bitter. He does not mind being mean. He pushes Sara and Tom. He makes them fall. He takes the diamond and runs away.
+
+Sara and Tom are sad. They cry. They lost the diamond. They have a boo-boo. They hug each other. They are still friends. They go home. They tell their mom and dad. They hope the big boy will be sorry. They hope they will find another diamond.
+Lily wanted to go to the park with her mom, but her mom said no. She said they had to go to the store first. Lily did not like the store. It was boring and loud. She wanted to play on the swings and the slide.
+
+"Please, mom, can we go to the park?" Lily asked.
+
+"Not now, Lily. We need to buy some things for dinner. Maybe later, if we have time," her mom said.
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She did not want to wait. She wanted to go to the park now. She saw her mom's purse on the couch. She had an idea. She ran to the purse and grabbed it. She ran to the door.
+
+"Hey, Lily, what are you doing?" her mom said. She saw Lily with her purse. She ran after her.
+
+"Give me back my purse, Lily. That's not nice. You can't take my purse," her mom said.
+
+Lily did not listen. She tried to open the door. She wanted to go outside. She wanted to go to the park. She did not want to give back the purse. She tried to resist her mom.
+
+"No, mom, I want to go to the park. I don't want to go to the store. The park is fun. The store is not," Lily said.
+
+Her mom reached her and took the purse from her. She was not happy. She was upset. She said to Lily:
+
+"Lily, that was very naughty. You can't take my purse without asking. You can't run away from me. You have to listen to me. I'm your mom. I know what's best for you. We have to go to the store. The park is not available right now. Maybe later, if you behave, we can go to the park. But you have to say sorry first."
+
+Lily did not want to say sorry. She did not think she was naughty. She thought her mom was mean. She crossed her arms and pouted. She did not say anything.
+
+Her mom sighed. She said to Lily:
+
+"Lily, I love you, but you have to learn to follow the rules. You have to respect me and my things. You have to be patient and polite. You have to say sorry when you do something wrong. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily looked at her mom. She saw her mom's face. She saw her mom's eyes. She saw her mom's purse. She felt sorry. She did not want to make her mom sad. She wanted to make her mom happy. She wanted to go to the park with her mom. She said to her mom:
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. I love you. I won't take your purse again. I will listen to you. I will go to the store with you. Can we go to the park later?"
+
+Her mom smiled. She hugged Lily. She said to Lily:
+

+Tom was a cat who liked to sleep a lot. He had a long, fluffy tail that he wrapped around himself when he napped. He did not like it when anyone or anything disturbed his sleep.
+
+One day, he was sleeping on the sofa when he heard a loud noise. It was Max, the dog, who had come to play. Max saw Tom's tail and thought it was a toy. He ran to the sofa and grabbed the tail with his teeth.

+
+"What is a mystery?" Lily asked Tom.
+
+"A mystery is something that you do not know, but you want to find out," Tom said. "Like, who took the cookies from the jar, or where did the missing sock go."
+
+Lily nodded. She liked to solve mysteries. She picked up a book with a picture of a dog and a bone. The title was "The Mystery of the Buried Bone". She showed it to Tom.

+"Let's go and look," Tom said.
+
+"No, Tom, that's dangerous," Sue said. "The sign says to beware. That means the dog is not nice. He might bite us."
+
+"Come on, Sue, don't be scared," Tom said. "Maybe the dog is just lonely. Maybe he wants to play with us and Spot. Maybe he has a funny name like Spot."

+
+"No, she can't," Tom said. "Zoom is full. There is no room for Anna."

+
+Lily said, "But I want it. It's cool and fun."
+
+Mom said, "You have your own toys. You can't be greedy and bossy. You have to share and be fair. How would you feel if Sam took your doll?"

+Lily said, "I would be mad."
+
+Mom said, "Exactly. So give Sam his jet back or give him a dollar."

+
+One day, Tom and Jen decide to race their cars on the floor. Tom picks a red car with a motor and Jen picks a blue car without a motor. They line up their cars at the start and count to three. Then they press the buttons on their cars and watch them go.
+
+Tom's car zooms ahead with a loud vroom. Jen's car moves slowly as she pushes it with her hand. Tom laughs and says, "My car is better than yours. It has a motor and it is bright. Your car is dull and it has no motor. You will never catch up with me."
+
+Jen feels sad and angry. She does not like Tom's words. She thinks her car is nice and she likes to push it. She does not care about the motor or the color. She says, "Your car is not better than mine. It is noisy and it is rude. You are not nice to me. You are a bad racer."
+
+Tom does not listen to Jen. He keeps laughing and watching his car. He does not see the big book on the floor. His car hits the book and flips over. It stops working and makes no noise. Jen's car keeps going and passes Tom's car. It reaches the finish and wins the race.
+
+Jen smiles and says, "My car is the best. It is quiet and it is smart. It can push past anything. You are a silly racer. You should watch where you are going."
+
+Tom feels sad and sorry. He sees his car is broken and he sees Jen is happy. He says, "You are right, Jen. Your car is the best. It is a good car and you are a good racer. I am sorry for being mean to you. Can we be friends again?"
+
+Jen nods and says, "Yes, Tom. We can be friends again. But next time, let's play with different cars. Maybe we can swap and try each other's cars. That would be fun."

+
+Jill said, "Tom is bad. He took my books and broke them. They are unique. They are mine."
+
+Tom said, "Jill is mean. She won't let me play with her books. They are boring. They are hers."
+
+Their mom said, "Books are not for playing. They are for reading and learning. They are unique. They are for sharing. You both need to say sorry and help clean up."

+Jill and Tom looked at each other. They felt sorry for what they did. They said sorry and hugged. They helped clean up the books. They found one book that was not broken.

+
+Tom and Sam nod. They know they did a bad thing. They feel sorry.
+
+They go back to the woods with their mom. They find the man and his lumber. They say sorry and help him put back his lumber.
+
+The man is not angry anymore. He is glad they are honest. He smiles and thanks them.
+
+"Maybe when I finish my house, you can come and see it," he says. "But don't touch my lumber again, okay?"
+

+Tommy loved his guitar. He wanted to play like his big brother, who was brilliant at guitar. He tried to copy his brother's songs, but they sounded bad. He asked his brother to teach him, but his brother was busy.
+
+One day, Tommy saw a book on the shelf. It said "How to improve your guitar skills". Tommy thought this book would help him. He took the book and went to his room.

+
+He decided to show his brother what he learned. He ran to his brother's room and knocked on the door. His brother opened the door and saw Tommy with his guitar and the book. He was angry.
+
+"Tommy, what are you doing with my book and my guitar?" he shouted. "That book is for advanced players, not for beginners like you. And that guitar is mine, not yours. You could have broken it or scratched it. Give them back to me right now!"
+
+He snatched the book and the guitar from Tommy's hands. He slammed the door in Tommy's face. Tommy felt sad. He wanted to play guitar like his brother, but his brother did not want to help him. He did not want to share his book or his guitar. He did not care about Tommy's feelings. Tommy cried. He wished he had a different brother.

+"Let's go in!" he said to Mia.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Mia said. She was a little scared.
+
+They opened the door and saw many things. There were books and toys and pictures and clothes. They looked around and touched everything. They had fun.
+
+But then, they heard a loud noise. It was Mom. She was coming home.
+
+"Quick, hide!" Sam said. He grabbed the key and locked the door. He thought Mom would not find them.
+
+But he was wrong. Mom saw the key in the door. She tried to open it, but it was locked. She knocked and called.
+
+"Sam, Mia, are you in there? Open the door, please!"
+
+Sam and Mia heard Mom. They wanted to open the door, but they could not. The key was stuck. They pulled and pushed, but it did not move.
+
+They were trapped.
+
+They started to cry. They were scared and sorry. They wished they had not locked the door.
+
+Mom heard them cry. She was worried and angry. She got a tool and broke the door. She saw Sam and Mia. They were sad and dizzy. They had been in the room for too long.
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I'm glad you're OK, but you were very naughty. You should not lock doors and touch things that are not yours. You could have been hurt. Say sorry and promise to never do that again."
+
+Sam and Mia said sorry and promised. They learned their lesson. They never locked doors and touched things that are not theirs again. They played in the big house, but they were careful and good.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a big ball and a small bike. They share their toys and have fun.
+
+One day, Sara brings a sandwich with jelly. She likes jelly a lot. She says to Tom, "Do you want some jelly? It is sweet and red."
+
+Tom says, "Yes, please. I like jelly too. Thank you, Sara." He takes a bite of the sandwich and smiles.
+
+Sara smiles back. She thinks Tom is very friendly. She says, "You are welcome, Tom. You are a good friend."
+
+Tom thinks Sara is very friendly too. He says, "You are a good friend too, Sara. You are very nice."
+
+They look at each other and feel happy. They lean closer and kiss each other on the cheek. They giggle and hug.

+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with blocks and cars. One day, they find a big box of toys in the park. They are very happy.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a red car!" Tom says. He picks up the car and makes it zoom.
+
+"I found a yellow doll!" Lily says. She hugs the doll and makes it talk.
+
+They play with the toys for a long time. They share and take turns. They have fun.
+
+But then, a big boy comes. He is mean. He sees the toys and wants them.
+
+"Hey, these are my toys!" he says. He grabs the car from Tom and the doll from Lily. He runs away.
+
+Lily and Tom are upset. They cry and shout.
+
+"Give us back our toys!" they say. "You don't own them!"
+
+The big boy does not listen. He laughs and keeps running. But he does not see a crack in the ground. He trips and falls. The toys fly out of his hands.
+
+Lily and Tom see the toys. They run and get them. They are happy again.
+
+"Are you okay?" Lily asks the big boy. He is hurt and sad.
+
+"No, I'm not okay," he says. "I'm sorry. I was bad. Can I play with you?"
+
+Lily and Tom think. They are kind. They nod and smile.
+
+"Okay, you can play with us," they say. "But you have to share and be nice."
+
+The big boy says thank you. He learns to share and be nice. They play with the toys together. They have fun.
+Tom and Lily were playing ball on the lawn. They liked to throw the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes the ball went too far and they had to run after it.
+
+One time, the ball went over the fence and into the street. Tom ran to get it, but he did not look for cars. He saw the ball on the other side and ran across the street.
+
+Lily saw a big car coming fast. She shouted, "Tom, stop! Car!" But Tom did not hear her. He was too busy looking at the ball.
+
+The car hit Tom and made a loud noise. Tom fell down and did not move. The ball rolled away.
+
+Lily cried and ran to Tom. She tried to wake him up, but he did not open his eyes. She hugged him and said, "Tom, please return. I'm sorry. I love you."
+
+The car stopped and the driver got out. He looked scared and sad. He called for help on his phone. He said, "I'm sorry. I didn't see him. He ran out of nowhere."
+
+But it was too late. Tom did not return. He was gone. Lily was alone. She wished she could play ball with Tom again. But she couldn't. The lawn was empty. The ball was lost. The game was over.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play together in the park, and share their toys and snacks. One day, they found a shiny crystal in the grass. It was blue and sparkly, and they both wanted it.
+
+"Can I have it?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Ben said.
+
+They started to tug on the crystal, and it broke in half. They both felt sad and angry.
+
+"I don't want to be your friend anymore!" Lily said.
+
+"Me neither!" Ben said.
+
+They ran away from each other, and sat on opposite sides of the park. They felt lonely and sorry, but they did not know how to say it.
+
+A nice lady saw them, and came over to talk to them. She smiled and said, "Why are you so sad, little ones?"
+
+Lily and Ben told her what happened. They showed her the broken crystal, and said they wanted it back.
+
+The lady nodded and said, "I understand. But you know, sometimes things break, and that's okay. What matters more is your friendship. You can still share the crystal, and make something beautiful with it. Do you want to try?"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other, and nodded. They felt nervous, but also curious. The lady helped them tie the crystal pieces to a string, and made a necklace. She gave it to Lily and Ben, and said, "This is a special necklace. It means you are friends forever, and you care for each other. Do you know what that is called?"
+
+Lily and Ben shook their heads.
+
+The lady smiled and said, "It's called marry. When two people love each other, and want to be together always, they marry. And they wear a ring, or a necklace, or something else, to show it. Do you want to marry?"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at the necklace, and then at each other. They felt happy and warm. They nodded and said, "Yes, we want to marry!"
+
+They hugged each other, and put on the necklace. They thanked the lady, and ran back to play. They felt like they had the most beautiful crystal in the world.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to go to the park with Mom and Dad. The park has many animals. Some are big, some are small, some are loud, some are quiet. Tom and Lily like to see the animals and learn their names.
+
+One day, they see a new animal. It is brown and furry, with a long tail and sharp teeth. It runs fast and jumps on trees. Mom says it is a squirrel. Tom and Lily think it is cute and funny. They want to get closer and touch it.
+
+"Can we feed the squirrel, Mom?" Tom asks.
+
+"No, Tom, the squirrel is wild. It might bite you or run away. We have to be careful and quiet," Mom says.
+
+"But I want to play with it, Mom," Lily says.
+
+"I have an idea. Why don't we take a picture of the squirrel? Then we can look at it later and remember how it looks," Dad says. He takes out his phone and shows Tom and Lily how to snap a picture.
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They like to snap pictures. They follow Dad and Mom to the tree where the squirrel is. They wait for the squirrel to come out of its hole. They see its nose and ears. They get ready to snap.
+
+"Say cheese, squirrel!" Tom and Lily shout.
+
+The squirrel hears them and gets scared. It runs out of the tree and across the park. Tom and Lily laugh and chase it. Dad snaps a picture of them. Mom smiles and shakes her head.
+
+They have a fun day at the park. They see many animals, but the squirrel is their favorite. They look at the picture and giggle. They show it to their friends and tell them about the wild squirrel. They want to go back to the park and snap more pictures.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. But sometimes they fight over the toys and books. They do not like to share.
+
+One day, they are playing with a big puzzle. The puzzle has many pieces. Lily and Ben each want to make the puzzle by themselves. They do not want to help each other. They start to pull and push the pieces. They start to yell and cry.
+
+"Stop it, Lily! This is my piece!" Ben says.
+
+"No, it is mine! You have too many pieces!" Lily says.
+
+They are so loud that their mom hears them. She comes to their room. She sees the mess and the tears. She is not happy.
+
+"What is going on here?" she asks.
+
+"Lily and Ben are fighting over the puzzle. They do not share. They are not nice." Mom says.
+
+She takes the puzzle away from them. She puts it on a high shelf. She tells them to sit on their beds. She closes the door.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad and angry. They do not talk to each other. They do not look at each other. They sit on their beds and pout.
+
+After a while, they hear a loud noise. They hear the door shake. They hear a growl. They are scared.
+
+"What is that?" Lily whispers.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe a monster." Ben whispers.
+
+They look at the door. They see a shadow under the door. They see claws and teeth. They scream.
+
+"Mom! Mom! Help us!" they shout.
+
+They run to each other. They hug each other. They are sorry for fighting. They want to be friends again.
+
+Mom hears them. She opens the door. She smiles. She is holding a mask and a glove. She is not a monster. She is playing a trick on them.
+
+"Did you learn your lesson?" she asks.
+
+"Yes, Mom. We are sorry. We will share. We will be nice." Lily and Ben say.
+
+Mom hugs them. She gives them the puzzle back. She tells them to work together. She tells them to have fun.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They thank Mom. They start to make the puzzle. They help each other. They talk and laugh.
+
+They learn that sharing is good. They learn that fighting is bad. They learn that being nice is better than being strong.
+Tom and Anna were twins, but they were very unique. Tom liked to play with cars and trucks, and Anna liked to play with dolls and books. They had different colors and shapes of hair and eyes, too. But they loved each other very much, and they always shared their toys and snacks.
+
+One Wednesday, they went to the park with their mom. They saw a big slide, a swing, a sandbox, and a merry-go-round. They ran to the slide first, and took turns going down. They laughed and shouted with joy. Then they went to the swing, and pushed each other higher and higher. They felt the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces.
+
+But when they went to the sandbox, they saw a boy who was not very nice. He had a big bucket and a shovel, and he was making a castle. He did not want to share his toys with anyone. He said, "This is my sandbox, and these are my toys. Go away, or I will throw sand at you!"
+
+Tom and Anna did not like the boy. They wanted to play in the sandbox, too. They had their own buckets and shovels, and they had some shells and stones to decorate their castles. They said, "We can play together, and make a bigger and better castle. We have some pretty things to put on it. Please, can we share?"
+
+But the boy did not listen. He said, "No, no, no! You cannot play here. This is mine, mine, mine! Go away, or I will shut your eyes with sand!" And he raised his shovel, and tried to hit Tom and Anna with it.
+
+Tom and Anna were scared and angry. They did not want to be hit by the shovel, or have sand in their eyes. They said, "Stop, stop, stop! You are not nice. You are mean and rude. You cannot shut our eyes with sand. That is not how you play. You have to share and be kind. Mom, mom, mom! Help us!"
+
+Their mom heard their cries, and came to the sandbox. She saw the boy with the shovel, and Tom and Anna with their buckets and shovels. She said, "What is going on here? Why are you fighting? Why are you not sharing?"
+
+The boy said, "This is my sandbox, and these are my toys. I do not want to share. They want to take them away from me. They are bad."
+
+Tom and Anna said, "No, we are not bad. We want to play with him, and share our toys. He is bad. He tried to shut our eyes with sand. He is not nice."
+
+Their mom said, "I see. Well, you are all wrong. This is not your sandbox, or your toys. This is the park's sandbox, and the park's toys. They are for everyone to use and enjoy. You have to share and be nice, or you cannot play here. Do you understand?"
+
+The boy said, "No, I do not understand. I do not want to share. I want to play alone."
+
+Tom and Anna said, "Yes, we understand. We want to share. We want to play with others."
+
+Their mom said, "Good. Then you can stay and play in the sandbox, and make a castle together. And you, young man, you have to leave the sandbox, and find another place to play. And you have to say sorry to Tom and Anna, for trying to shut their eyes with sand. That was not nice at all."
+
+The boy said, "No, I do not want to say sorry. I do not want to leave. I want to stay here."
+
+Their mom said, "No, you have to go. Now. Or I will tell the park ranger, and he will make you go. And he will not be happy with you. Come on, Tom and Anna, let's go and play in the sandbox. And you, young man, go and find another toy. And learn to share and be nice. Goodbye."
+
+And she took Tom and Anna by the hand, and led them to the sandbox. They smiled and thanked their mom, and started to make a castle together. They used their buckets and shovels, and their shells and stones, and they made a big and beautiful castle. They were very happy and proud. And they invited some other kids to join them, and share their toys. They made some new friends, and had a lot of fun.
+
+And the boy, he left the sandbox, and looked for another toy. But he did not find any. All the other toys were taken by other kids, who were playing and sharing and laughing. And he felt lonely and sad. And he wished he had been nice to Tom and Anna, and shared his

+
+One day, they see a big bird in a tree. It has yellow and black feathers. It looks angry. Tom wants to shoot it with an arrow. He lifts the bow and aims.
+
+"Stop!" Sam says. "That is a dangerous bird. It can hurt you with its beak. It is not a toy. It is a hornet."
+
+Tom does not listen. He thinks he is brave. He lets go of the arrow. It flies in the air.
+
+But the hornet is faster. It sees the arrow and dodges it. Then it flies towards Tom and Sam. It buzzes loudly. It is very mad.
+
+Tom and Sam are scared. They drop the bow and the arrows. They run away. They hear the hornet behind them.
+
+"Help!" they cry. "The hornet is chasing us!"
+
+They reach their home. They slam the door. They are safe. They hug each other.
+
+They learn a lesson. They do not play with dangerous animals. They do not shoot arrows at them. They say sorry to the hornet. They hope it forgives them.

+Sara liked to receive post. She liked to open the letters and cards from her friends and family. Sometimes she got stickers or drawings or sweets in the post. She was always happy when she saw the postman.
+
+One day, Sara received a mysterious post. It was a big brown box with no name or address on it. She wondered who sent it and what was inside. She asked her mum if she could open it. Her mum said yes, but to be careful.
+
+Sara opened the box and saw a lot of shiny things. There were necklaces and bracelets and rings and earrings. They sparkled and glittered in the light. Sara thought they were very pretty and wanted to try them on. She put on a necklace and a bracelet and a ring and an earring. She felt like a princess.
+
+But then she noticed something strange. The necklace was too tight and made her neck itch. The bracelet was too heavy and made her arm hurt. The ring was too small and made her finger swell. The earring was too sharp and made her ear bleed. Sara felt very bad and wanted to take them off. But they were stuck and she couldn't.
+
+She cried and called her mum. Her mum came and saw what happened. She was very worried and angry. She said, "Sara, you should not take things that are not yours. You don't know where they came from or who they belong to. They might be dangerous or stolen or cursed. You should always ask before you touch something that is not yours. And you should be happy with what you have and not be greedy for more."
+
+She helped Sara take off the shiny things and put them back in the box. She called the postman and asked him to take the box away. She said, "We don't want this post. It is not ours and it is not good. Please find out who sent it and why."
+
+She hugged Sara and said, "I'm sorry you got hurt, my dear. I hope you learned your lesson. You are my precious girl and you don't need any shiny things to make you beautiful. You are beautiful just the way you are."
+
+Sara nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mum. I learned my lesson. I don't want any mysterious post. I only want post from you and dad and grandma and grandpa and my friends. I love you, mum."
+
+They smiled and kissed and went to have some cookies and milk. Sara felt much better and was happy again. She received a postcard from her grandma the next day and it made her day.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and balls. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big house with many windows and doors. They want to see inside.
+
+"Let's go to the house," Tom says. "Maybe we can find something fun."
+
+"No, Tom," Sam says. "That is a bad idea. The house is not ours. Mom says we should not go to places that are not ours."
+
+But Tom does not listen. He runs to the house and opens a door. He sees a dark room with many things. He goes inside.
+

+Sam hears Tom. He is scared. He runs to the door. He sees the dog and Tom. He wants to help Tom. But he does not know what to do.
+
+"Mom!" Sam cries. "Mom, help!"
+
+Sam's mom and Tom's mom hear Sam. They run to the house. They see the dog and the boys. They are worried. They shout at the dog. They try to get Tom out.
+
+The dog is confused. It stops barking. It runs away. Tom is safe. He runs to his mom. He hugs her. He is sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom," Tom says. "I was stupid. I should not have gone to the house. I could have lost you and Sam."
+
+"It's okay, Tom," his mom says. "I'm glad you are okay. But you should listen to Sam and me. We know what is best for you. We love you."
+
+Sam and his mom come to Tom and his mom. They are happy. They hug each other. They are friends.
+
+"Are you okay, Tom?" Sam asks.
+
+"Yes, Sam," Tom says. "Thank you for calling mom. You are a good friend."

+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big box under a tree. It was heavy and had a lock on it.
+
+"What is in the box?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a mystery," Ben said.
+
+They tried to open the box, but it was too hard. They looked for a key, but they could not find one.
+
+"Maybe we can ask someone for help," Lily said.
+
+They saw a man walking by. He had a hat and a coat. He looked nice.
+
+"Excuse me, sir. Can you help us open this box?" Ben asked.
+
+The man smiled and came closer. He took off his hat and coat. Lily and Ben gasped. The man was their dad!

+
+They were very happy. They had solved the mystery of the box. It was a heavy box, but it had a light and fun gift inside.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to explore. One day, they found an ancient road in the woods behind their house. It was made of big stones and had cracks and moss on it.
+
+"Where does it go?" Lily asked.
+
+"Let's find out!" Ben said. He ran ahead, but Lily was scared.
+
+"Wait, Ben! It looks old and dark. Maybe there are monsters or traps!" she said.
+
+Ben stopped and looked back. He saw that Lily was holding their teddy bear, Mr. Fluff. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lily. There are no monsters or traps. It's just an old road. And we have Mr. Fluff to protect us. He is brave and strong."
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not want to go. She said, "No, Ben. I don't like it. It's too far and too spooky. Let's go back to the house. Mom will make us cookies and milk."
+
+Ben sighed. He really wanted to see where the road led. But he loved his sister and did not want to make her cry. He said, "Okay, Lily. We can go back. But can we come again another day? Maybe when it's sunny and bright?"
+
+Lily nodded. She was happy that Ben listened to her. She said, "Yes, Ben. We can come again another day. But only if you insist. And only if we bring Mr. Fluff."
+
+Ben agreed. He took Lily's hand and they walked back to the house. They did not see the old sign that said, "Beware of the dragon."

+
+"I'm cutting your hair, Lily. It looks funny!" Ben said, laughing.
+
+Lily was very angry and sad. She grabbed the scissors from Ben and tried to cut his hair too. But Ben dodged and ran away. Lily chased him around the barn, waving the scissors.

+They did not see the hay bale that was in their way. They bumped into it and fell down. The scissors flew out of Lily's hand and landed on the hay. The hay caught fire from the sun shining on the scissors.

+"Hello, little boy. Do you like our fire truck?" one of the firemen asked.
+
+"Yes, I do. It is very big and red. Can I see inside?" Tim asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. But first, you have to ask a thoughtful question. Do you know what a thoughtful question is?" the other fireman asked.
+
+Tim thought for a moment. He wanted to ask a good question. He looked at the fire truck and saw a ladder, a hose, and a siren. He decided to ask about the siren.
+
+"Why do you have a siren on your fire truck?" he asked.
+
+"That is a very thoughtful question, Tim. We have a siren on our fire truck to let other cars and people know that we are going to a fire. The siren makes a loud noise and the lights flash. That way, they can move out of the way and let us pass. The siren helps us get to the fire faster and save people and animals." the fireman explained.
+
+Tim nodded. He understood. He thanked the fireman for his answer. The fireman smiled and opened the door of the fire truck. He invited Tim and his mom to sit inside and see the buttons and the radio. Tim was very happy. He observed the fire truck and learned something new. He liked fire trucks even more.
+Lily was a nice girl who liked to help her dad fix things. She had a big box of screws that she used to join wood and metal. She was very proud of her screws and always kept them clean and shiny.
+
+One day, she saw a shiny screw on the floor. She thought it was one of hers and picked it up. She did not know that it was a very special screw that belonged to her dad's watch. Her dad had taken off his watch to wash his hands and left it on the table. He forgot to put it back on and went to work.
+
+Lily decided to use the screw to make a necklace for her mom. She found a string and a needle and tried to poke a hole in the screw. But the screw was very hard and the needle was very sharp. Lily pushed too hard and the needle slipped and stabbed her finger. She cried out in pain and dropped the screw and the needle.
+
+Her mom heard her cry and ran to see what was wrong. She saw the blood on Lily's finger and the screw and the needle on the floor. She was very angry and scared. She took Lily to the bathroom and washed her wound. She put a bandage on it and gave her a hug. She asked her where she got the screw and why she was playing with a needle.
+
+Lily told her that she found the screw on the floor and wanted to make a necklace for her mom. She said she was sorry and did not mean to hurt herself. Her mom told her that the screw was not hers and that it was very important for her dad's watch. She said that needles were not toys and that they could hurt her very badly. She said that Lily should not take things that did not belong to her and that she should always ask before using something.
+
+Lily felt very bad and said she was sorry again. She wished she had not taken the screw and played with the needle. She learned that it was wrong to steal and that it could cause a lot of trouble. She hoped that her dad would not be too mad at her and that his watch would still work. She also hoped that her finger would heal soon and that her mom would still love her. She thought that she would never do something like that again.

+
+"Can we keep him, Ben?" she asks.
+
+Ben shakes his head. "No, Anna. He belongs to someone. See, he has a tag on his chest. It says Max."

+
+"Can we play with him, then?" she asks.
+
+Ben nods. "Sure, Anna. But we have to be careful. He might run away or bite us."

+
+"Max, Max, please wake up!" Anna says. "Please be okay!"
+
+But the dog does not wake up. He is gone. He is dead.
+
+Anna and Ben hug each other. They wish they never saw the dog. They wish they never played with him. They wish he was still alive.

+But the fire truck was not his. It belonged to the firemen who were helping his neighbor with a small fire. The firemen did not see Tommy on the fire truck. They were busy putting out the fire. Tommy did not know that the fire truck was about to move.

+
+Tommy was sorry. He did not mean to cause trouble. He learned his lesson. He learned that he should not jump on things that are not his. He learned that he should be careful and listen to his parents. He learned that jumping is fun, but not on a fire truck.

+
+Anna and Ben were very angry. They shouted at Rex and told him to go away. They tried to fix their castle, but it was too broken. They started to cry. They had worked hard to make their castle, and now it was ruined.
+
+Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw the mess and the sad twins. She hugged them and said, "I'm sorry, your castle was very nice. But Rex didn't know. He just wanted to play with you. He loves you very much. He didn't mean to be bad. He didn't know how to behave."
+
+Anna and Ben looked at Rex, who was sitting on the grass, looking sorry. He licked his paws and whined. He looked worried. He didn't want to make them mad. He wanted to be their friend.
+
+Anna and Ben felt sorry for Rex, too. They knew he was a good dog, and he didn't understand their game. They wiped their tears and said, "It's okay, Rex. We're not mad at you. We love you, too. You can play with us, but you have to be gentle. You can't break our things. You have to behave."

+
+They took their corn to their mom. She was sitting under a tree. She had a basket with bread and cheese.
+
+"Mom, mom, we have corn!" Lily and Ben said. They gave their corn to their mom.
+
+"Wow, you have corn!" Mom said. She smiled and hugged them. "You are very good at finding food. You provide for us."
+
+She took the bread and cheese from the basket. She broke the bread and gave some to Lily and Ben. She cut the cheese and gave some to Lily and Ben. She peeled the corn and gave some to Lily and Ben.
+
+They ate their food. It was very yummy. They liked the bread and cheese. They loved the corn. It was sweet and juicy.
+
+"This is a perfect picnic!" Mom said. She kissed Lily and Ben. "You make me happy."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They were happy too. They had a perfect picnic with their mom and their corn.
+Tom is a boy who likes to run. He runs fast and far. He runs in the park, in the street, in the school. He runs away from his mom, his dad, his teacher. He thinks running is fun.
+
+One day, Tom runs away from his mom when she is shopping. He runs into a big road with many cars. He does not look left and right. He does not hear the horn. A car hits him and he falls down. He feels pain and he cries. His mom runs to him and hugs him. She is scared and angry. She takes him to the doctor.
+
+The doctor says Tom is lucky. He has a broken arm and some cuts, but he will be okay. He gives Tom a bandage and a sticker. He says the sticker is a reward for being brave. Tom says thank you, but he does not feel happy. He feels sorry. He knows he was bad. He knows he made his mom worry. He knows he could have died.
+
+Tom learns a lesson. He learns that running is not always fun. He learns that he has to listen to his mom, his dad, his teacher. He learns that he has to be careful and safe. He learns that he has to say sorry when he is wrong. He says sorry to his mom and hugs her. He says he will not run away again. His mom says she loves him and forgives him. She says he can still run, but only in the right places and times. Tom says he understands and he will do better. He feels happy again. He knows he has a good mom and a good reward.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play with blocks. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes. They could make houses, towers, cars, and animals with their blocks. They had fun making patterns with their blocks, like red-blue-red-blue or square-circle-square-circle.
+
+One day, they had a new friend come over to play. His name was Max. Max was wild. He did not like to follow rules or share. He grabbed blocks from Lily and Tom and threw them around. He said, "Blocks are boring. Let's play something else."
+
+Lily and Tom did not like that. They said, "No, Max. We like blocks. We are making patterns. You are spoiling our game. Please stop."
+
+But Max did not stop. He kept throwing blocks and laughing. He said, "Patterns are silly. I like to make a mess. It is more fun."
+
+Lily and Tom were sad and angry. They did not want to play with Max anymore. They said, "Max, you are not a good friend. You are rude and mean. You do not care about our feelings. You can go home now."
+
+Max was surprised and hurt. He realized that he had been wrong. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily and Tom. I was wild. I did not know how to play with blocks. I wanted to have fun, but I made you unhappy. Can I stay and play with you?"
+
+Lily and Tom thought for a moment. They decided to give Max another chance. They said, "OK, Max. You can stay and play with us. But you have to be nice and respectful. You have to share and follow rules. You have to learn how to make patterns with blocks. They are not boring. They are fun and beautiful."
+
+Max agreed. He said, "Thank you, Lily and Tom. I will try to be a better friend. I will listen to you and play with blocks. I will try to make patterns with you. Maybe I will like them too."
+
+Lily and Tom smiled. They taught Max how to make patterns with blocks. They showed him how to match colors and shapes. They helped him to build houses, towers, cars, and animals. They had fun playing with blocks together. They became good friends.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be kind and respectful to others. Share and follow rules. Try new things and learn from others. You can have more fun and make more friends that way.
+Lily and Tom are playing in the garden. They see a big box near the gate. It has a label that says "post". They are curious.
+
+"Let's examine the box," Lily says. "Maybe it has something for us."
+
+They run to the box and open it. Inside, they find a lot of colorful balloons. They are happy.
+
+"Wow, look at all these balloons!" Tom says. "They are so pretty and round."
+
+They take out the balloons and start to blow them up. They make funny noises and shapes with them. They laugh and giggle.
+
+"Look, I made a dog balloon!" Lily says, showing Tom her balloon. "Woof, woof!"
+
+"That's funny, Lily!" Tom says. "I made a cat balloon. Meow, meow!"
+
+They pretend to make the balloons talk to each other. They have a lot of fun.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a voice from the house.
+
+"Lily, Tom, come inside!" It is their mom. "It's time for lunch."
+
+They look at each other and smile.
+
+"OK, mom, we're coming!" they say.
+
+They gather the balloons and put them back in the box. They leave the box near the gate.
+
+"Maybe we can play with the balloons again later," Lily says.
+
+"Maybe we can share them with our friends," Tom says.
+
+They hold hands and walk to the house. They are hungry and happy. They love playing in the garden.
+Lily liked to dance. She danced every day in her room. She wanted to perform in the big show. She practiced a lot with her teacher and her friends. She was very happy.
+
+The day of the show came. Lily put on her pretty dress and her shiny shoes. She waited for her turn. She saw her mom and dad in the crowd. They smiled and waved at her. She felt excited.
+
+She went on the stage. The music started. She began to dance. She did all the steps right. She felt proud. She saw the other dancers. They smiled and clapped for her. She felt happy.
+
+But then, something bad happened. The lights went out. It was very dark. Lily could not see anything. She was scared. She heard people scream and cry. She tried to find her way out. She bumped into things. She fell down. She hurt herself. She felt sad.
+
+The lights came back on. Lily saw a lot of smoke and fire. The stage was burning. The show was ruined. She saw some people run away. She saw some people help others. She saw some people hurt and dead. She felt shocked.
+
+She looked for her mom and dad. She could not find them. She called for them. They did not answer. She felt alone. She cried and cried. She did not care about the show or the victory. She only wanted her mom and dad. She felt hopeless.
+Ben and Lily were playing on the farm. They liked to run and jump and see the animals. They saw cows and pigs and chickens and horses. They also saw a big field of wheat. The wheat was tall and yellow and made a soft sound when the wind blew.
+
+"Look, Ben, wheat!" Lily said. "Can we touch it?"
+
+"OK, but be careful. Don't break it. It is food for people and animals," Ben said. He was older than Lily and knew more things.
+
+They walked into the field and felt the wheat with their hands. It was smooth and hard and had little seeds on top. They picked some and put it in their pockets.
+
+"Let's make a wheat crown!" Lily said. She liked to make things with flowers and leaves and sticks.
+
+"Good idea!" Ben said. He helped Lily twist and tie the wheat into a circle. Then he put it on her head. "You look like a queen!"
+
+Lily smiled and put a wheat crown on Ben's head too. "You look like a king!"
+
+They laughed and pretended to rule the farm. They waved to the animals and the farmer. The farmer waved back and smiled. He was happy to see the children having fun.
+
+"Ben, Lily, time to go home!" their mom called. She had come to pick them up.
+
+"OK, mom, we're coming!" Ben said. He and Lily ran to their mom. They showed her their wheat crowns.
+
+"Wow, those are very pretty! Did you make them?" their mom asked.
+
+"Yes, we did! We found wheat in the field. It is food for people and animals," Lily said.
+
+"That's right, Lily. Wheat is very important. It can make bread and pasta and cake and many other things," their mom said.
+
+"Can we keep our wheat crowns?" Ben asked.
+
+"Of course you can. But first, let's finish our snack. I brought some orange juice and cookies for you," their mom said.
+
+"Yay, orange juice and cookies!" Ben and Lily said. They loved orange juice and cookies. They drank and ate and thanked their mom.
+
+Then they got in the car and went home. They wore their wheat crowns all the way. They felt happy and proud. They had a fun day on the farm.
+Lily and Max were playing with their blocks. They liked to build towers and houses and cars. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes.
+
+But Max wanted all the blocks for himself. He took Lily's blocks and put them in his pile. He said, "These are mine. You can't have them."
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She said, "That's not fair. You are rude. We have to share the blocks. Give me some back."
+
+Max said, "No. I don't want to share. You have zero blocks. Ha ha ha."
+
+Lily tried to grab some blocks from Max, but he pushed her away. He said, "Go away. Leave me alone. Shut up."
+
+Lily cried. She ran to their mom and told her what Max did. Mom was not happy. She said, "Max, that's very bad. You have to be nice to your sister. You have to say sorry and share the blocks."
+
+Max did not want to say sorry or share. He said, "No. I like my blocks. They are mine."
+
+Mom said, "If you don't say sorry and share, you will have a time out. You will have to sit in the corner and think about what you did."
+
+Max did not like time outs. He did not want to sit in the corner. He said, "Fine. I'm sorry. Here, Lily, you can have some blocks."
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Thank you, Max. I forgive you. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Max nodded. He said, "Yes. I want to play with you. Let's build something together."
+
+Lily and Max hugged. They played with their blocks and had fun. Mom was proud of them. She said, "That's better. I love you both."
+One day, Anna and Ben went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and birds. But their favorite animal was the elephant. The elephant had a big trunk that he used to spray water and pick up food. He also had big ears and a long tail.
+
+Anna and Ben wanted to play with the elephant, so they asked their mom if they could. Their mom said yes, but they had to be careful and compassionate. That means they had to be kind and gentle, and not hurt or scare the elephant. Anna and Ben nodded and smiled.
+
+They went closer to the elephant and said hello. The elephant looked at them and made a loud noise. Anna and Ben laughed. They asked the elephant his name, but he did not answer. They decided to guess his name. Anna guessed Bob, and Ben guessed Max. The elephant shook his head. They guessed more names, like Sam, Tom, and Leo. The elephant still shook his head.
+
+They were running out of names, when they saw a sign next to the elephant's cage. The sign said his name was Raja. Anna and Ben said Raja out loud, and the elephant nodded. He was happy that they guessed his name. He lifted his trunk and sprayed some water on them. Anna and Ben squealed and thanked him. They gave him some peanuts and stroked his trunk. The elephant smiled and wagged his tail. He liked Anna and Ben, because they were compassionate and fun. They became friends with Raja, and promised to visit him again.
+Tom and Sam were playing with water guns in the park. They liked to spray each other and laugh. They saw a woman sitting on a bench. She had a big bag and a hat. She looked sad.
+
+Tom and Sam thought it would be fun to spray the woman. They ran towards her and squirted water at her. The woman screamed and jumped up. She was angry. She grabbed her bag and opened it. She took out an enormous spray can.
+
+The woman pointed the spray can at Tom and Sam. She pressed a button. A loud hiss came out. A cloud of red paint sprayed at the boys. It covered their faces, clothes and hair. It stung their eyes and noses. They cried and ran away.
+
+The woman laughed and put the spray can back in her bag. She sat down and smiled. She was happy. She had taught the boys a lesson. She did not like to be sprayed. She liked to spray.
+Anna and Ben like to play near the river. They see a big kayak on the shore. It is red and shiny. They want to try it.
+
+"Let's go in the kayak, Ben. It looks fun," Anna says.
+
+"OK, Anna. But we have to be careful. The river is fast and deep," Ben says.
+
+They climb into the kayak and push it into the water. Anna takes a paddle and Ben holds on to the kayak. They start to move with the river.
+
+"Wow, this is fun, Anna. You are good at paddling. You lead us," Ben says.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. I like to lead. I know where to go. We are safe in the kayak," Anna says.
+
+But Anna does not know where to go. She does not see the big rocks ahead. She does not hear the loud noise of the water. She does not feel the kayak tipping over.
+
+The kayak hits the rocks and flips over. Anna and Ben fall into the water. They scream and splash. They are scared and cold. They are not safe in the kayak.
+
+No one hears them. No one sees them. No one helps them.
+
+The river takes them away. They never come back.
+Lily hated screws. She hated how they were hard and pointy and hurt her fingers. She hated how they made loud noises when daddy used his tool to put them in the wall. She hated how they made holes in her pretty pictures.
+
+One day, Lily found a screw on the floor. She picked it up and looked at it. She wanted to throw it away, but she had a bad idea. She wanted to see what would happen if she put the screw in her soft teddy bear.
+
+She took her teddy bear and made a small hole in his back. She pushed the screw in the hole and twisted it. She smiled and hugged her teddy bear. She thought he would be more fun with a screw in him.
+
+But she was wrong. The screw made her teddy bear hard and lumpy. It poked her cheek and made her cry. It ripped his fur and made him ugly. She tried to pull the screw out, but it was stuck. She cried louder and louder.
+
+Daddy heard her cry and came to see what was wrong. He saw her teddy bear with the screw in his back. He was angry and sad. He took the screw out and threw it away. He hugged Lily and told her not to do that again. He told her that screws are not for toys, they are for fixing things. He told her that he loved her, but he hated what she did.
+
+Lily felt sorry and ashamed. She hugged her teddy bear and said sorry to him. She said sorry to daddy too. She learned her lesson. She never hated screws again, but she never played with them either. She only played with her soft teddy bear.
+Tim liked to play with his dad's keys. He had many keys of different shapes and colors. He liked to try them on different doors and locks. He wanted to unlock everything.
+
+One day, he saw a large door with a sign that said "Barber". He wondered what was inside. He took his dad's keys and walked to the door. He tried one key after another, but none of them worked. He was sad.
+
+Then he saw a man coming out of the door. He had a big smile and a new haircut. He looked like a barber. Tim ran to him and asked, "Can I see your keys?"
+
+The man was surprised, but he was kind. He said, "Sure, little boy. These are my keys. They unlock the door to my shop, where I cut hair and make people happy."
+
+He showed Tim his keys and let him hold them. Tim was happy. He looked at the keys and saw one that was different from his dad's keys. It had a scissors on it. He said, "This is the key that unlocks the barber door!"
+
+The man nodded and said, "That's right. Do you want to try it?"
+
+Tim nodded and said, "Yes, please!"
+
+The man took Tim by the hand and led him to the door. He helped him use the scissors key to unlock the door. Tim felt proud and excited. He opened the door and saw a big room with chairs, mirrors, scissors, combs, and hair. He said, "Wow!"
+
+The man said, "Welcome to my shop, Tim. Do you want a haircut?"
+
+Tim said, "Yes, please!"
+
+The man said, "OK, then. Come and sit on this chair. I'll make you look handsome and happy."
+
+Tim sat on the chair and let the man cut his hair. He liked the sound of the scissors and the feel of the comb. He looked at himself in the mirror and smiled. He said, "Thank you, barber!"
+
+The man said, "You're welcome, Tim. You're a good boy. Here, take this key as a gift. It's a special key that only unlocks the barber door. You can come back anytime you want."
+
+Tim took the key and hugged the man. He said, "Thank you, barber! You're a good man. I like your shop. I'll come back soon."
+
+The man hugged him back and said, "You're welcome, Tim. I like you too. I'll see you soon."
+
+Tim ran back to his dad and showed him his new haircut and his new key. His dad was surprised and happy. He said, "Wow, Tim! You look great! And where did you get this key?"
+
+Tim said, "I got it from the barber. He's my friend. He let me unlock his door and cut my hair. He gave me this key as a gift. It's a special key that only unlocks the barber door. I can go there anytime I want."
+
+His dad said, "That's amazing, Tim! You're very lucky. The barber is very nice. You should thank him again next time you see him."
+
+Tim said, "I will, dad. I will."
+Tom and Anna liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big missile. The missile was red and shiny, and it made a loud noise when they pushed a button. They pretended that the missile could fly to the moon and back.
+
+One day, they decided to bake a cake for their mom. They asked their dad for help, and he gave them a bowl, some eggs, some flour, some sugar, and some chocolate. They mixed everything together and poured it into a pan. Then they put the pan in the oven and waited.
+
+While they waited, they played with their missile. They took turns pushing the button and making the noise. They laughed and had fun. But they forgot to watch the oven. The cake started to burn and smoke. The smoke alarm went off and their dad ran to the kitchen.
+
+"Oh no, the cake is ruined!" he said. He took the pan out of the oven and threw it in the sink. He opened the window and fanned the smoke away. He was not happy.
+
+Tom and Anna felt bad. They wanted to make their mom happy, not sad. They hugged their dad and said they were sorry.
+
+"It's okay, kids. I know you tried your best. But next time, please be more careful with the oven. And don't play with your missile in the house. It's not safe."
+
+Tom and Anna nodded. They said they would be more careful. They put their missile away and helped their dad clean the kitchen. They hoped their mom would still like their cake, even if it was burned. They thought their mom was adorable.
+Lily was a little bee who loved to fly. She liked to visit all the flowers in the garden and make honey with her friends. One day, she saw a big, yellow daisy that looked very pretty. She flew over to it and said hello.
+
+"Hello, little bee," said the daisy. "Do you want to play with me?"
+
+"Yes, please," said Lily. "You are very nice and bright."
+
+The daisy smiled and spun around. "Look, I can make you dizzy," it said.
+
+Lily laughed and flew around the daisy. She felt happy and dizzy. She flew faster and faster, until she was too dizzy to see. She bumped into a tree and fell to the ground.
+
+"Ouch!" she cried. "That hurt!"
+
+The daisy stopped spinning and looked at Lily. It felt sorry for her. "I'm sorry, little bee," it said. "I didn't mean to make you dizzy. Are you okay?"
+
+Lily rubbed her head and got up. She was not okay. She felt sick and sad. She did not want to play with the daisy anymore. She flew away to find her friends.
+
+"Goodbye, little bee," said the daisy. "I hope you feel better soon."
+
+Lily learned a lesson that day. She learned that flying too fast can make you dizzy and hurt. She learned that some flowers are not good to play with. She learned to be careful and listen to her friends. She learned that flying is fun, but not too much.
+Lily loved her new toy. It was a soft bear with a red bow. She hugged it and kissed it and took it everywhere. She named it Chewy, because it liked to chew on things.
+
+One day, Lily and Chewy went to the kitchen. Lily saw a big jar of butter on the table. She wanted to make toast with butter, like Mommy did. She climbed on a chair and reached for the jar. But she was not careful, and the jar fell on the floor. The butter spilled everywhere.
+
+Lily was scared. She knew Mommy would be angry. She grabbed Chewy and ran to her room. She hid under the bed with Chewy. She hoped Mommy would not find them.
+
+But Mommy heard the noise. She came to the kitchen and saw the mess. She was very angry. She looked for Lily and Chewy. She followed their footprints of butter. She found them under the bed.
+
+Lily saw Mommy and started to cry. She said she was sorry. She said she just wanted toast with butter. She said Chewy was hungry too.
+
+Mommy looked at Chewy. She saw that he had butter on his fur. She saw that he had chewed on the red bow. She saw that he had chewed on the bed sheet. She saw that he had chewed on her favorite book.
+
+Mommy was very angry. She said Chewy was a bad toy. She said he had to go away. She took Chewy from Lily and threw him in the trash.
+
+Lily was very sad. She loved Chewy. She did not want him to go away. She cried and cried and cried.
+Ben likes to play soccer with his friends. He likes to run, kick, and score goals. Sometimes, he goes to the big stadium with his dad to watch the soccer game. He feels happy and excited when he sees the players and the fans.
+
+One day, Ben gets to play soccer in the stadium. His team is wearing blue shirts and the other team is wearing red shirts. Ben feels nervous and proud at the same time. He wants to do his best and make his dad happy.
+
+The game starts and Ben runs fast with the ball. He sees a red shirt in front of him. He tries to go around him, but the red shirt is strong and pushes him. Ben falls down and hurts his knee. He feels pain and sadness. He wants to cry.
+
+But then, he hears his dad cheering for him. He hears his dad say, "You are strong, Ben! You can do it! Get up and keep playing!" Ben feels love and courage. He wipes his tears and gets up. He runs after the ball again. He feels strong and brave.
+
+He sees a blue shirt near the goal. He passes the ball to him. The blue shirt kicks the ball and scores a goal. Ben feels joy and pride. He hears his dad and the fans clap and shout. He runs to the blue shirt and hugs him. He feels happy and grateful. He loves soccer and he loves his dad.
+Tim and Mia liked to play in the backyard. They had a big grill that their dad used to make food. Sometimes, they pretended to cook with the grill too. They used sticks and leaves and rocks as their food.
+
+One day, it was very gloomy outside. The sky was gray and it looked like rain. Tim and Mia did not want to play in the backyard. They wanted to stay inside and watch TV. But their mom said no. She said they had to go outside and get some fresh air.
+
+Tim and Mia were not happy. They put on their coats and boots and went outside. They did not want to play with the grill. They thought it was boring and dirty. They wanted to play with something else.
+
+They saw a big box in the corner of the yard. It was shiny and new. They wondered what was inside. They ran to the box and opened it. They saw a lot of toys. There were cars and dolls and books and puzzles. They were so excited. They forgot about the grill and the gloomy weather.
+
+Their dad came outside and saw them. He smiled and said, "Surprise! These are your early birthday presents. I wanted to give them to you today, because I value you so much. You are my precious children and I love you."
+
+Tim and Mia hugged their dad and thanked him. They were so happy. They played with their new toys and had a lot of fun. They did not care about the grill or the gloomy weather. They only cared about their dad and each other. They learned that the best things in life are not things, but people who value you.
+Tim and Mia are twins. They like to play with their toys and watch cartoons. But they do not like to bathe. They think it is boring and cold.
+
+One day, their mom says, "Tim and Mia, it is time to bathe. You are very dirty and smelly. Come on, let's go to the bathroom."
+
+Tim and Mia say, "No, mom, we do not want to bathe. We want to play more. Please, mom, let us play."
+
+Mom says, "No, you have to bathe. If you bathe, I will make you a huge pizza for dinner. You love pizza, right?"
+
+Tim and Mia think for a moment. They do love pizza. They love cheese and pepperoni and sauce. They love to eat pizza with their hands and make funny noises.
+
+They say, "Okay, mom, we will bathe. But only if you make us a huge pizza. And we want to choose the toppings."
+
+Mom says, "Deal. But you have to bathe well and use soap and shampoo. And you have to be quick. The pizza will be ready soon."
+
+Tim and Mia agree. They go to the bathroom and bathe. They splash and giggle and make bubbles. They wash their hair and their bodies and their teeth. They dry themselves with fluffy towels and put on clean clothes.
+
+They run to the kitchen and see a huge pizza on the table. It smells yummy and cheesy. Mom says, "Here you go, Tim and Mia. A huge pizza for my good twins. You can have any toppings you want. What do you want?"
+
+Tim says, "I want pepperoni and olives and mushrooms."
+
+Mia says, "I want pineapple and ham and corn."
+
+Mom says, "Okay, I will cut the pizza in half. You can have your own half. But you have to share with me and dad."
+
+Tim and Mia say, "Okay, mom, we will share. Thank you for the pizza. You are the best mom."
+
+They sit down and eat the pizza. They are happy and full. They say, "Mom, we are sorry we did not want to bathe. Bathe is not so bad. It makes us clean and fresh. And it makes the pizza taste better."
+
+Mom says, "I am glad you like to bathe now. And I am proud of you for being good twins. I love you very much."
+
+They hug mom and say, "We love you too, mom."
+Lily liked toast. She liked to eat it with jam and butter. She liked to make it in the toaster. She liked to smell it when it was hot. Toast was her favorite food.
+
+But Tom did not like toast. He liked to eat cereal and milk. He liked to make it in the bowl. He liked to hear it when it was crunchy. Cereal was his favorite food.
+
+One morning, Lily and Tom had breakfast together. Lily made toast for herself. Tom made cereal for himself. They sat at the table and ate. Lily was happy. Tom was bored.
+
+Tom wanted to have some fun. He saw Lily's toast. He had an idea. He took his spoon and poked Lily's toast. He made a hole in it. He laughed. Lily was angry.
+
+Lily saw Tom's cereal. She had an idea. She took her fork and poked Tom's cereal. She made a mess in it. She laughed. Tom was furious.
+
+Tom and Lily started to poke each other's food. They made more holes and more messes. They shouted and cried. They did not eat anything. They wasted their food.
+
+Mom came into the kitchen. She saw the food and the kids. She was shocked. She was sad. She was mad. She scolded Tom and Lily. She sent them to their rooms. She cleaned the kitchen.
+
+Tom and Lily did not have fun. They did not have breakfast. They did not have a good morning. They learned a lesson. They said sorry to Mom. They said sorry to each other. They hugged. They promised to be nice. They hoped to have toast and cereal another day.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and hide. They saw a big hole in the fence. They wanted to see what was on the other side.
+
+"Let's go, Tom!" Lily said. "Maybe there are more flowers and bugs there."
+
+Tom was not sure. He felt scared. He remembered what Mom said. "Don't go out of the garden. There are bad things out there. They can hurt you."
+
+But Lily was curious. She pulled Tom's hand. "Come on, it will be fun. We can come back soon."
+
+They crawled through the hole. They saw a field with tall grass and trees. They also saw something shiny. It was a can. Lily ran to get it. She liked shiny things.
+
+But when she got close, she heard a snap. She felt a pain in her leg. She looked down. She saw a trap. It was a metal thing with teeth. It bit her leg. She screamed.
+
+"Help, Tom, help!" she cried.
+
+Tom heard her scream. He ran to her. He saw the trap. He was scared. He did not know what to do.
+
+He saw a stick. He picked it up. He tried to push the trap open. But it was too hard. He could not move it.
+
+He saw a tear in Lily's pants. He saw blood. He felt sad. He hugged Lily. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I'm sorry. I will get help. Don't cry."
+
+He ran back to the hole. He saw an enormous dog. It was black and hairy. It had big teeth and red eyes. It growled. It blocked the hole.
+
+Tom was terrified. He could not go back. He could not leave Lily. He was trapped. He cried. He wished he had listened to Mom.
+Lila and Ben were going to the park with Mom. They had a big sack with snacks and toys. They were happy and excited.
+
+When they got to the park, they saw a cool slide and a swing. They wanted to play right away. But Mom said, "Wait, we need to unpack the sack first. Then you can play."
+
+Lila and Ben helped Mom unpack the sack. They took out some sandwiches, some apples, some juice, and some cookies. They also took out a ball, a kite, a book, and a teddy bear. They put everything on a blanket.
+
+"Wow, we have so many things!" Lila said.
+
+"Yes, we do. But remember to share and be nice," Mom said.
+
+Lila and Ben nodded. They ate some snacks and drank some juice. Then they said, "Thank you, Mom. Can we play now?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Yes, you can. Have fun, but be careful."
+
+Lila and Ben ran to the slide and the swing. They took turns and laughed. They also played with the ball and the kite. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Mom watched them and read the book. She also hugged the teddy bear. She was happy and proud. They had a good day at the park.
+One day, a boy named Ben went to the zoo with his mom and dad. He liked to see all the different animals, but his favorite was the elephant. He wanted to touch its trunk and ears, but it was too far away.
+
+"Mom, can you lift me up?" he asked.
+
+"Sorry, Ben, I can't. The elephant is behind a fence. It is for our safety. The elephant is very big and strong, and it might hurt us if we get too close," his mom said.
+
+Ben felt sad. He wished he could be friends with the elephant. He saw a staff near the fence. It was a long stick with a hook at the end. The staff belonged to the zookeeper, who used it to feed and care for the elephant.
+
+"Maybe I can use the staff to reach the elephant," Ben thought. He ran to the staff and tried to pick it up. But it was too heavy for him. He could not lift it at all.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" a voice said. It was the zookeeper. He saw Ben struggling with the staff.
+
+"I want to touch the elephant," Ben said.
+
+The zookeeper smiled. He understood how Ben felt. He liked the elephant too. He was very kind and gentle with it.
+
+"I'm sorry, but you can't touch the elephant with the staff. It might scare or hurt the elephant. The staff is only for me to use. I have to be very careful and respectful with the elephant. It is an enormous and amazing animal, but it is also wild and needs its space," the zookeeper said.
+
+He put the staff back in its place and walked to the fence. He called the elephant by its name and gave it a treat. The elephant came closer and lifted its trunk. It made a loud noise and sprayed some water.
+
+"Wow!" Ben said. He was amazed by the elephant.
+
+The zookeeper invited Ben to come closer too. He held Ben's hand and helped him to touch the elephant's trunk gently. The elephant felt rough and wrinkly, but also warm and friendly.
+
+"Thank you, Mr. Zookeeper!" Ben said. He was very happy.
+
+"You're welcome, Ben. I'm glad you like the elephant. But remember, always ask before you touch any animal, and never use the staff. It is not a toy. It is a tool," the zookeeper said.
+
+Ben nodded. He learned a lot that day. He said goodbye to the elephant and the zookeeper, and went to see the other animals with his mom and dad. He had a lot of fun at the zoo.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pond. They want to go near the pond and look at the water.
+
+"Look, Lily, I see a crocodile!" Tom says. He points at a long, green thing in the water. It has big teeth and a long tail.
+
+"Where, Tom? I don't see a crocodile. You are silly!" Lily says. She does not believe Tom. She thinks he is making a joke.
+
+"No, Lily, I am not silly. There is a crocodile. It is hiding under the water. Come and see!" Tom says. He is stubborn. He wants Lily to see the crocodile.
+
+"Tom, stop it. There is no crocodile. Crocodiles are not in ponds. They are in rivers and lakes. You are lying!" Lily says. She is stubborn too. She does not want to go near the pond.
+
+Tom and Lily start to argue. They do not listen to each other. They do not see the sign that says "Danger: Crocodile". They do not hear the splash that comes from the pond. They do not notice the crocodile that comes out of the water and opens its mouth. They are too busy being stubborn. They are in trouble.
+Lily and Tom are in the car with Mom and Dad. They are going to the zoo. Lily and Tom like the zoo. They want to see the lions and the monkeys and the birds.
+
+The car is slow. There are many cars on the road. Lily and Tom are bored. They look out the window. They see a big sign. The sign has a picture of a pizza. The sign says: "Pizza Hut. Best pizza in town. Come and try it."
+
+Lily and Tom love pizza. They are hungry. They say to Mom and Dad: "Can we have pizza? Please, please, please!"
+
+Mom and Dad look at the sign. They look at each other. They smile. They say: "OK, we can have pizza. But only if you are good at the zoo. And only if you eat your vegetables too."
+
+Lily and Tom are happy. They say: "Yay! Thank you, Mom and Dad. We will be good. We will eat our vegetables. We love you."
+
+Mom and Dad offer Lily and Tom a hug. They say: "We love you too. You are our sweet kids. Now let's go to the zoo and have some fun."
+Lily and Ben wanted to play in the snow. They put on their hats and coats and boots. They ran outside and saw the white snow everywhere. It was cold and soft and sparkly.
+
+They saw a big hill with snow on it. They wanted to slide down the hill. They found a big board and put it on the snow. They climbed on the board and held each other. They were ready to go.
+
+They pushed the board and it started to move. It went faster and faster down the hill. They felt the wind and the snow on their faces. They laughed and screamed. They were having fun.
+
+But then they saw a big tree at the bottom of the hill. It was in their way. They tried to stop the board. They tried to steer it away. But it was too late. The board hit the tree with a loud bang. They flew off the board and landed on the snow.
+
+They felt pain and fear. They cried and shouted. They were hurt and scared. The tree was not gentle. It was hard and mean. They wished they had not played in the snow. They wished they had stayed inside. They learned a hard lesson.
+Tommy liked to play with his toys. He had cars, trains, blocks and animals. He liked to make them move and talk. He pretended they had adventures and problems. He was a good part for them.
+
+One day, he found a new toy in his room. It was a doctor kit. It had a stethoscope, a syringe, a bandage and a badge. Tommy was curious. He wanted to try the doctor kit. He thought it was useful.
+
+He picked up the stethoscope and put it on his ears. He listened to his own heart. Thump, thump, thump. He smiled. He listened to his teddy bear's heart. Thump, thump, thump. He smiled again. He listened to his car's heart. Nothing. He frowned. He wondered why his car had no heart.
+
+He decided to fix his car. He took the syringe and poked it into the car. He pushed the plunger. He hoped it would make the car's heart start. But nothing happened. The car still had no sound. He took the bandage and wrapped it around the car. He hoped it would make the car feel better. But nothing changed. The car still had no movement.
+
+He looked at the badge. It said "Doctor Tommy". He felt proud. He thought he was a good doctor. He wanted to show his mom. He ran to the kitchen with his doctor kit and his car. He saw his mom making a cake. He said, "Mom, look! I am a doctor. I fixed my car. It had no heart, but I gave it medicine and a bandage. Now it is fine."
+
+His mom looked at him and his car. She saw the syringe, the bandage and the badge. She was surprised. She said, "Oh, Tommy, you are a very creative doctor. But you know, cars don't have hearts. They have engines. And engines need gas and oil, not medicine and bandages. Do you want to learn how engines work?"
+
+Tommy nodded. He wanted to learn. He said, "Yes, mom, I want to learn. Can you teach me?" His mom smiled. She said, "Sure, Tommy, I can teach you. But first, let's have some cake. It is your favorite. Chocolate." Tommy smiled. He said, "Yay, cake! I love cake. And I love you, mom. You are the best part for me." His mom hugged him. She said, "I love you too, Tommy. You are the best part for me too." They ate cake and talked about engines. Tommy learned a lot. He was happy. He still liked his doctor kit, but he also liked his mom's part. He thought both were useful.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they discover a big box under a tree. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Tom says.
+
+"Maybe it has toys!" Mia says.
+
+They pull the box out and lift the lid. They see many colorful things. They are balloons, hats, masks, and streamers. They are happy and surprised.
+
+"Wow! Look at all these!" Tom says.
+
+"Someone left a party in a box!" Mia says.
+
+They decide to have fun with the things. They blow up the balloons and tie them to the tree. They put on the hats and masks and pretend to be different animals. They throw the streamers in the air and catch them.
+
+They have a lot of fun. They laugh and play. They make a lot of noise.
+
+The result is that they attract the attention of other children in the park. They see Tom and Mia and their colorful things. They want to join them.
+
+"Can we play with you?" they ask.
+
+"Sure! Come on!" Tom and Mia say.
+
+They share the things with the other children. They make new friends. They have a bigger party.
+
+They are very happy. They thank the box for the surprise. They wonder who left it there. They hope they will discover more things next time.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play in the kitchen. One day, they see a big refrigerator. It is white and cold. They want to open it and see what is inside.
+
+They pull the handle and open the door. They see many things. They see milk, eggs, cheese, fruit, juice, and cake. They are hungry. They want to eat the cake. It looks yummy.
+
+They take the cake out of the refrigerator and put it on the table. They take a knife and cut a big piece. They start to eat the cake. It is sweet and soft. They are happy.
+
+But then, they hear a sound. It is Mom. She is coming to the kitchen. They are scared. They know they did a bad thing. They hide the cake under a napkin. They sit on the chairs and pretend to read a book.
+
+Mom comes to the kitchen. She sees the twins. She smiles and says hello. She goes to the refrigerator and opens the door. She looks for the cake. She does not see it. She is confused. She asks the twins, "Where is the cake? I made it for Grandma's birthday. Did you see it?"
+
+Tom and Lily look at each other. They do not know what to say. They feel sorry. They want to be honest. They tell Mom the truth. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We ate the cake. We were hungry. We did not know it was for Grandma. We are very sorry."
+
+Mom is angry and sad. She says, "That was not nice. That was not honest. You should not take things that are not yours. You should not lie to me. You should say sorry to Grandma. You have to make a new cake with me."
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We will help you make a new cake. We will be honest and nice. We love you and Grandma."
+
+Mom hugs them. She says, "I love you too. But you have to learn from your mistake. And you have to share the cake with Grandma and everyone else."
+
+Tom and Lily agree. They go to the kitchen and start to make a new cake. They hope Grandma will like it. They hope Mom will forgive them. They hope they will be honest and nice from now on.
+Sara and Tom were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a big box of candy in the kitchen. They opened it and saw many colors and shapes of candy. They wanted to try them all.
+
+"Let's share the candy," Sara said. "You take one and I take one. Then we can enjoy them together."
+
+"OK," Tom said. But he was not honest. He wanted more candy than Sara. He took two candies and put one in his mouth and one in his pocket. He did this many times.
+
+Sara did not see what Tom was doing. She only took one candy each time. She enjoyed the sweet and sour tastes in her mouth. She smiled and said, "This candy is so good. Thank you for sharing with me, Tom."
+
+Tom did not smile. He felt troubled. His mouth was full of candy and his pocket was heavy. He felt sick and guilty. He did not enjoy the candy at all. He wished he had shared with Sara.
+
+He looked at Sara and saw how happy she was. He felt sorry for what he did. He took out the candy from his pocket and said, "Sara, I have something to tell you. I was not fair. I took more candy than you. I am sorry. Do you want some of my candy?"
+
+Sara was surprised. She saw the candy in Tom's hand. She felt sad and angry. She said, "Tom, that was not nice. You were greedy and selfish. You lied to me. Why did you do that?"
+
+Tom felt ashamed. He said, "I don't know. I just wanted more candy. But I was wrong. I did not have fun. I hurt you and myself. Please forgive me, Sara. I love you. You are my sister."
+
+Sara looked at Tom. She saw that he was sincere. She loved him too. He was her brother. She said, "I forgive you, Tom. But you have to promise me that you will not do that again. You have to be honest and generous. That is how we can enjoy things together."
+
+Tom nodded. He said, "I promise, Sara. I will not do that again. I will be honest and generous. That is how we can enjoy things together."
+
+They hugged each other and said sorry. Then they decided to give some of the candy to their mom and dad. They knew that they would enjoy it too. They learned a lesson that day. They learned that sharing is caring.
+Lily and Ben were playing on the shore. They liked to dig in the sand and find shells and stones. They also liked to splash in the water and make waves.
+
+One day, they found a big shell that was shiny and pink. They both wanted to have it, but there was only one.
+
+"Give me the shell!" Lily said. "I saw it first!"
+
+"No, I want it!" Ben said. "It is mine!"
+
+They pulled the shell from each other, but it was very hard. They pulled and pulled until the shell broke in two. They heard a loud tear and saw the pieces fall on the sand.
+
+They both felt sad and angry. They had ruined the shell. They did not want to play anymore. They sat on the shore and looked away from each other.
+
+A little crab came out of the sand. It saw the broken shell and crawled towards it. It liked the shiny and pink pieces. It picked one up with its claw and carried it to its hidden hole. It was very happy.
+
+Lily and Ben saw the crab and what it did. They felt curious and sorry. They realized that the shell was not so important. They had a lot of other shells and stones. They also had each other.
+
+They got up and walked to the crab. They smiled and said, "Hello, little crab. Do you like the shell? You can have it. We are sorry we broke it."
+
+The crab looked at them and waved its claw. It seemed to say, "Thank you, Lily and Ben. You are very kind. You can share my hole. It is big enough for all of us."
+
+Lily and Ben laughed and hugged. They were happy again. They played with the crab and its shell. They also found more shells and stones and gave them to the crab. They had a lot of fun on the shore.
+Lily was a shy girl who liked to play with her dolls. She did not like loud noises or big crowds. She liked to stay in her room and make up stories with her dolls.
+
+One day, her mom told her they were going to visit her aunt in the city. Lily felt scared. She did not want to go to the city. She heard the city was noisy and busy and full of people. She wanted to stay home with her dolls.
+
+When they got to the city, Lily saw tall buildings and cars and buses and people everywhere. She held her mom's hand tightly and looked down. She wished she could go underground, where it was quiet and dark and safe.
+
+Her mom took her to a big station. There were trains and tracks and signs and more people. Lily felt more scared. She heard a loud whistle and saw a train coming. She wanted to run away.
+
+Her mom said, "Look, Lily, this is our train. We are going to ride it to see your aunt. It is fun and fast and safe. Don't be afraid. The train will take us underground, where it is quiet and dark and safe. Just like you like it."
+
+Lily looked at her mom and then at the train. She saw the doors open and people get in and out. She saw some seats and windows. She saw her mom smile and nod.
+
+Lily took a deep breath and said, "OK, mom. I will try. But can I hold your hand?"
+
+Her mom said, "Of course, Lily. You can hold my hand. And you can bring your doll, too. She will like the train ride, too."
+
+Lily nodded and picked up her doll. She followed her mom to the train. She felt her mom's hand squeeze hers. She felt her doll's soft hair. She felt a little less scared.
+
+She heard the doors close and the train start to move. She saw the lights and the walls and the tunnels. She saw the train go underground, where it was quiet and dark and safe. Just like she liked it.

+
+"Come on, Sam. Let's go and say hello. We can give him some of our cars and balls. He will be happy," Tom says.
+
+Sam is not sure. He likes his toys. He does not want to lose them.
+
+"But Tom, what if he breaks them? Or takes them away? They are ours," Sam says.
+
+Tom shakes his head. He thinks Sam is being mean.
+
+"No, Sam. He will not do that. He is poor. He has nothing. We have many toys. We can share. Sharing is good. Sharing is fun. Don't you want to make a new friend?" Tom says.
+
+Sam thinks for a moment. He looks at the new boy. He sees his sad face. He feels a little bad.
+
+"Okay, Tom. You are right. Sharing is good. Sharing is fun. Let's go and say hello. Maybe he will be our friend," Sam says.

+Lily wanted a dog very much. She asked her mom and dad many times, but they said no. They said dogs are too much work and too loud. Lily was sad and angry.
+
+One day, Lily saw a dog in the park. It was big and brown and had a long tail. It looked at Lily with friendly eyes. Lily went to the dog and petted it. The dog licked her face and wagged its tail. Lily felt happy and thought the dog was perfect.
+
+Lily decided to take the dog home. She thought her mom and dad would accept the dog if they saw how nice it was. She put a rope around the dog's neck and walked with it. The dog followed her and barked.
+
+But when Lily got home, her mom and dad were not happy. They saw the dog and shouted. They said the dog was not theirs and it was dangerous. They said Lily had to take the dog back to the park. Lily cried and said no. She said the dog was hers and she loved it.
+
+But her mom and dad did not listen. They took the rope from Lily and dragged the dog outside. The dog growled and bit her dad's hand. Her dad yelled and kicked the dog. The dog ran away and never came back. Lily was very sad and wished she had never seen the dog. She felt alone and sorry.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and find worms and bugs. Anna had a flower in her hand. It was yellow and pretty. She wanted to plant it in the ground.
+
+"Look, Ben, I have a flower. Can I bury it here?" she asked, pointing to a spot near the fence.
+
+Ben nodded. He thought flowers were boring, but he wanted to make Anna happy. He helped her dig a hole with his shovel. Anna put the flower in the hole and covered it with dirt. She smiled and clapped her hands.
+
+"Yay, we planted a flower! It will grow big and beautiful!" she said.
+
+Ben shrugged. He didn't care about flowers. He wanted to dig more holes and find more worms and bugs. He moved to another spot and started digging.
+
+Anna watched her flower. She hoped it would grow soon. She watered it with her watering can. She sang to it a song. She waited and waited.
+
+But the flower did not grow. It did not move. It did not open. It stayed buried in the ground. Anna was confused. She did not understand why her flower did not grow. She felt sad and angry.
+
+She ran to Ben and shouted at him.
+
+"Ben, you made my flower die! You buried it too deep! You are a bad brother!" she cried.
+
+Ben looked up from his hole. He saw Anna crying and holding her watering can. He saw the spot where they buried the flower. He did not know what to say. He did not mean to make Anna sad. He did not know flowers needed air and light. He felt sorry and scared.
+
+He tried to hug Anna and say sorry, but Anna pushed him away. She ran to the house and told their mom what Ben did. Their mom came out and scolded Ben. She told him to go to his room and think about what he did. She told him he was not allowed to play in the garden anymore. She took Anna inside and gave her a cookie and a new flower.
+
+Ben was left alone in the garden. He felt bad and confused. He did not like flowers, but he liked Anna. He wanted to make her happy, but he made her sad. He wanted to play with her, but he lost her. He buried his face in his hands and cried.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy phones in the living room. They liked to pretend they were talking to their friends or family. Lily had a pink phone and Ben had a blue one.
+
+"Ring, ring, ring!" Lily's phone made a noise. She picked it up and said, "Hello, who is this?"
+
+"It's me, Ben!" Ben said from his phone. "Do you want to play outside? It's sunny and warm!"
+
+Lily looked out the window and saw the bright sky and the green grass. She smiled and said, "Yes, I do! Let's go!"
+
+They put on their shoes and ran to the door. But when they opened it, they saw something that made them stop. The sprinkler was on and it was spraying water everywhere. The porch was wet and slippery.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily said. "We can't go outside! We'll get wet and cold!"
+
+Ben frowned and said, "But I want to play outside! It's not fair!"
+
+He was frustrated and angry. He threw his phone on the ground and it broke into pieces. Lily gasped and said, "Ben, what did you do? That was your phone!"
+
+Ben realized what he had done and felt sorry. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was mad and I didn't think. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "It's okay, Ben. I know you didn't mean it. But we can't play with your phone anymore. Maybe we can find something else to do."
+
+They looked around and saw their books, their puzzles, and their stuffed animals. They decided to play with them instead. They had fun and forgot about the wet porch and the broken phone. They were happy and friends again.

+Lily wanted to be a fairy for the party. She had a lovely costume with wings and a wand. She asked her mom to help her put it on.
+
+"Mom, can I fill my wand with magic?" Lily said.
+
+"Sure, honey. How do you fill your wand with magic?" Mom said.
+
+Lily thought hard. She remembered the book she read with Mom. It said fairies fill their wands with good wishes. She smiled and said, "I fill my wand with good wishes for everyone at the party."
+
+"That's very nice, Lily. I'm sure everyone will love your wand and your costume. Are you ready to go?" Mom said.
+
+"Yes, Mom. Let's go!" Lily said. She grabbed her wand and ran to the door.

+The other kids smiled and thanked her. They played games, ate cake, and sang songs. Lily had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, she saw a boy in a corner. He looked sad. He had no costume. He had no friends. Lily felt sorry for him. She walked up to him and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. I'm a fairy. What's your name?"
+
+The boy looked up and said, "I'm Ben. I have no costume. I have no friends."
+
+Lily felt sad for Ben. She wanted to help him. She had an idea. She said, "Do you want to be my friend? Do you want to share my costume?"
+
+Ben looked surprised and curious. He said, "How can we share your costume?"
+
+Lily said, "You can wear my wings. I can wear my wand. Then we can both be fairies. We can fill our wands with good wishes for everyone."
+
+Ben smiled and nodded. He said, "That sounds fun. Thank you, Lily. You are very kind."
+

+
+"Look, Lily, I found a big stick!" Ben said. He held up a long branch. "I can use it as a sword or a wand or a fishing rod."
+
+"Wow, Ben, that's a great stick!" Lily said. She ran over to him. "Can I see it?"
+
+Ben gave her the stick. Lily waved it in the air. She made a funny noise. "Abracadabra! I turn you into a frog!"
+
+Ben laughed. He jumped and croaked. "Ribbit, ribbit! I'm a frog now! Can you turn me back?"
+
+Lily nodded. She waved the stick again. "Abracadabra! I turn you back into a boy!"
+
+Ben smiled. He hugged Lily. "Thank you, Lily! You are a good friend and a good witch!"
+
+They heard a voice. It was their dad. He was calling them. "Ben! Lily! Time to go home! It's getting dark!"
+
+Ben and Lily ran to their dad. They gave him the stick. "Look, dad, we found a stick! We played with it in the wheat!"
+
+Dad smiled. He took the stick. He looked at the wheat. He said, "This wheat is very important. It gives us bread and cake and cookies. We have to take care of it and thank it for its gifts."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They said, "Thank you, wheat! You are very important!"
+
+They held their dad's hand. They walked home. They were happy. They had a good day.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and make noise. But their mum said they had to be quiet soon, because their baby sister was sleeping. Anna and Ben did not want to stop playing.
+
+Mum came out with a big jug of juice and some cups. She said, "Why don't you have some juice and settle down? It is a mild day, not too hot and not too cold. You can sit on the grass and enjoy the sun."
+
+Anna and Ben liked juice. They took the cups and poured some juice from the jug. They drank and said, "Mmm, this is good." They felt less thirsty and more calm. They sat on the grass and looked at the flowers and the birds.
+
+Mum smiled and said, "That's better. You are being very good and quiet. Your baby sister will have a nice nap. And when she wakes up, we can all have some cake."
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and smiled. They liked cake. They liked their mum and their baby sister. They liked the garden and the juice. They felt happy and settled. They waited for the cake.

+
+Lily feels hurt and confused. She thinks Sara is not friendly. She likes her new doll very much. She says her doll is not too big or too shiny. She says her doll is very pretty and special. She says her doll can play with Sara's dolls. She says she wants to share her doll with Sara.
+
+Sara and Lily start to argue. They raise their voices and say mean things. They do not listen to each other. They do not have fun. They forget why they are friends.
+
+Then, Sara's mom comes in. She sees Sara and Lily fighting. She is not happy. She tells Sara and Lily to stop. She tells them to calm down and talk. She tells them to be kind and respectful. She tells them to remember that they are friends.
+
+Sara and Lily look at each other. They feel sorry and ashamed. They say sorry to each other. They hug and make up. They decide to play with all the dolls. They find out that they can have more fun when they share and invite. They learn that dolls are not more important than friends. They are happy again.
+Lily wanted to look nice for her birthday. She asked her mom to take her to the barber. The barber had a big chair and a lot of tools. He smiled at Lily and said, "Hello, little lady. What can I do for you?"
+
+Lily said, "I want to have a ponytail like my friend Anna. And maybe some bangs too."
+
+The barber nodded and said, "Sure, I can do that. But first, we need to clean your hair. It is very dirty and tangled. Let me wash it with some water and soap."
+
+He took Lily to a sink and sprayed water on her hair. Lily felt the water tickle her scalp. She giggled and said, "That feels funny."
+
+The barber rubbed some soap on her hair and made a lot of bubbles. He said, "This soap will make your hair shiny and soft. But be careful not to get it in your eyes. It might sting."
+
+He rinsed the soap off and wrapped a towel around Lily's head. He said, "Now, let's go back to the chair and cut your hair."
+
+He combed Lily's hair and snipped it with scissors. He made a ponytail and some bangs. He said, "There, you look beautiful. Do you like it?"
+
+Lily looked in the mirror and smiled. She said, "I love it. Thank you, barber. You are very nice."
+
+The barber said, "You're welcome, Lily. Happy birthday. But watch out for the fierce dog outside. He likes to chase people."
+
+Lily said, "Don't worry, barber. I'm not afraid of dogs. I have a fierce dog at home too. His name is Spot. He is very friendly and loyal. He will protect me from any other dogs."
+
+Lily hugged the barber and said goodbye. She ran outside and saw Spot waiting for her. He wagged his tail and licked her face. Lily said, "Hi, Spot. I missed you. Do you like my new hair?"
+
+Spot barked and nodded. He said, "Woof, woof. You look pretty, Lily. Happy birthday. Let's go home and have some cake."
+Sara was very hungry. She wanted to eat some jam on bread. She saw a big jar of jam on the shelf. She tried to reach it, but it was too high. She got a chair and climbed on it. She stretched her arm and grabbed the jar. But the jar was heavy and slippery. It fell from her hand and broke on the floor. Jam and glass went everywhere.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Sara cried. She stepped on a sharp piece of glass. It cut her foot and made it bleed. She felt a lot of pain. She suffered from the glass.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, help me!" Sara shouted. She was scared and sad.
+
+Mommy heard Sara and ran to the kitchen. She saw the mess and Sara's foot. She was worried and angry.
+
+"Sara, what did you do?" Mommy asked. She picked up Sara and hugged her. She felt her warm tears on her cheek.
+
+"I wanted jam, mommy. I'm sorry, mommy." Sara said. She was sorry and ashamed.
+
+Mommy took Sara to the bathroom. She cleaned her foot and put a band-aid on it. She gave her a kiss and a glass of milk.
+
+"It's okay, Sara. I know you were hungry. But you should not take things from the shelf by yourself. You could get hurt. Next time, ask me for help, okay?" Mommy said. She was calm and kind.
+
+"Okay, mommy. I love you, mommy." Sara said. She was grateful and happy.
+
+"I love you too, Sara. Now, let's go and clean the kitchen together." Mommy said. She smiled and held Sara's hand.
+
+They went back to the kitchen and cleaned the jam and the glass. They threw away the broken jar. They made some bread with butter and honey. They ate it together and enjoyed it. They felt warm and full.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the farm. They liked to see the animals and feed them. They saw cows, pigs, sheep and horses. They wanted to pet the horses, but they were too big and scary.
+
+"Let's go to the stable," Ben said. "Maybe we can find a small horse there."
+
+"OK," Lily said. "But we have to be quiet. The farmer said we can't go there."
+
+They walked to the stable. It was dark and dusty. They heard some noises inside. They peeked through a crack in the door. They saw a big horse and a small horse. The small horse was brown and white. It had a long mane and a fluffy tail. It looked friendly.
+
+"Look, Lily, a small horse!" Ben said. "Let's go inside and pet it."
+
+Ben opened the door and stepped inside. Lily followed him. The big horse saw them and neighed loudly. It stomped its hooves and shook its head. It did not like strangers in its stable.
+
+"Go away, go away!" the big horse said. "This is my stable and my small horse. You can't touch them."
+
+Ben and Lily were scared. They ran back to the door. But the door was closed. They tried to open it, but it was locked. They were trapped in the stable with the angry horse.
+
+"Help, help!" Ben and Lily cried. "Let us out, let us out!"
+
+The small horse heard them and felt sorry for them. It walked to the door and pushed it with its nose. The door opened a little. The small horse nudged Ben and Lily with its head.
+
+"Come, come," the small horse said. "I will help you. Follow me. I know a hidden way out."
+
+Ben and Lily followed the small horse. It led them to a corner of the stable. There was a hole in the wall. The small horse squeezed through the hole and showed them the way. Ben and Lily crawled through the hole and came out in the field. They were free.
+
+"Thank you, thank you!" Ben and Lily said to the small horse. "You are very kind and brave. You are our friend."
+
+The small horse smiled and nodded. It licked their faces and wagged its tail. It was happy to have new friends.
+
+"Bye, bye," the small horse said. "Come back and visit me again. But be careful of the big horse. He is very mean and grumpy."
+
+"Bye, bye," Ben and Lily said. "We will come back and visit you again. But we will be careful of the big horse. He is very mean and grumpy."
+
+They waved to the small horse and ran back to their parents. They decided to never go to the stable again without permission. They learned their lesson. They also learned to love the small horse. The end.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to watch TV. They watched TV every day after school and before bed. They liked to watch funny shows that made them laugh. They did not like to do other things, like play outside, read books, or help Mom and Dad.
+
+One day, their cousin Anna came to visit. Anna did not watch TV much. She liked to do other things, like draw, sing, and play games. She brought a big bag of toys and books with her. She said hello to Ben and Lily and asked them if they wanted to play with her.
+
+Ben and Lily said no. They said they wanted to watch TV. They said TV was more fun than anything else. They turned on the TV and ignored Anna. Anna felt sad. She did not have anyone to play with.
+
+Mom and Dad saw what was happening. They were not happy. They said to Ben and Lily, "TV is not the only thing that is fun. Anna is your cousin and she came to visit you. You should be nice to her and play with her. You can learn new things and have fun with her. TV can wait."
+
+Ben and Lily did not listen. They said they did not care. They said they only liked TV. They kept watching TV and laughing. Anna felt sadder. She wished she had other cousins who liked to play with her.
+
+Then, something happened. The TV stopped working. It made a loud noise and turned off. Ben and Lily were shocked. They tried to turn it on again, but it did not work. They cried and whined. They said they wanted to watch TV. They said they were bored.
+
+Mom and Dad said, "The TV is broken. You cannot watch TV anymore. Maybe you should play with Anna now. She has many toys and books that you can share. She is waiting for you in the living room. She is very lonely."
+
+Ben and Lily looked at each other. They felt bad. They realized they had been rude to Anna. They realized they had missed a chance to have fun with her. They realized they had been too greedy with TV. They decided to say sorry to Anna and play with her.
+
+They went to the living room and found Anna. She was sitting on the floor with her toys and books. She looked sad. Ben and Lily said, "Anna, we are sorry. We were not nice to you. We were too busy with TV. We want to play with you now. Can you forgive us?"
+
+Anna smiled. She said, "Of course I can forgive you. You are my cousins and I love you. I am glad you want to play with me now. I have many things that we can do together. Come, let me show you."
+
+Ben and Lily hugged Anna. They said, "Thank you, Anna. You are very kind. We love you too. We want to learn new things and have fun with you. TV is not the only thing that is fun. You are fun too."
+
+They played with Anna for a long time. They drew, sang, and played games. They laughed and had fun. They forgot about TV. They learned a lesson. They learned that TV is not the most important thing in life. They learned that family and friends are more important. They learned that being nice and sharing are better than being rude and greedy. They learned that there are many ways to have fun. They were happy.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play cops and robbers. Tim is the cop and Sam is the robber. They run and chase and hide and shout.
+
+One day, they play in the park. Sam sees a big slide. He runs to the slide and climbs up. He thinks he can hide from Tim. But Tim sees him too. He runs to the slide and climbs up after him.
+
+Sam slides down fast. He lands on the grass. He tries to get up and run away. But Tim slides down faster. He lands on Sam. He says, "I got you, robber! You are under arrest!"
+
+Sam does not like to lose. He says, "No, you did not get me! I have a secret weapon!" He pretends to have a gun in his hand. He points it at Tim. He says, "Bang! Bang! You are dead, cop!"
+
+Tim knows Sam is lying. He says, "No, you are lying! You do not have a gun! You have nothing!" He shows his hand. He says, "I have a badge! I am a real cop!"
+
+Sam and Tim look at each other. They see they have different things in their hands. They see they have different stories. They see they have different games. They start to laugh. They hug each other. They say, "We are silly! We are brothers! We are friends!" They go to play something else.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pile of junk near the swings. There are old boxes, cans, bottles and papers.
+
+"Look, Ben, junk!" Sara says. "Let's make something with it."
+
+"OK, Sara, what do you want to make?" Ben asks.
+
+Sara thinks for a moment. She sees a big box and a small can. She has an idea.
+
+"Let's make a car, Ben. We can use the box as the body and the can as the wheel. We need one more can, though."
+
+Ben looks around. He sees another can on the other side of the pile. He runs to get it.
+
+"Hey, that's my can!" a voice shouts. Ben stops and turns around. He sees a boy with a dirty face and clothes. He is holding a stick.
+
+"Who are you?" Ben asks.
+
+"I'm Tom. I live here. This is my junk. You can't take it." Tom says.
+
+Ben is scared. He drops the can and backs away.
+
+"Sorry, Tom. We didn't know. We just wanted to play." Ben says.
+
+Tom looks at Ben and Sara. He sees that they are not mean. They are just kids like him.
+
+"It's OK. You can play with my junk. But you have to ask me first. And you have to share." Tom says.
+
+"Thank you, Tom. You are very kind. Can we borrow your can, please?" Sara asks.
+
+Tom nods. He smiles.
+
+"Sure, you can borrow my can. And I can help you make your car. Do you want to be my friends?" Tom asks.
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They smile.
+
+"Yes, we want to be your friends. Come on, let's make the car together." Sara says.
+
+They all go to the box and the cans. They work hard and have fun. They make a car out of junk. They take turns to drive it. They laugh and talk. They are happy. They are friends.
+Tom and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park, share their toys and help each other. One day, they decided to play pretend. They found some flowers, a ring and a veil.
+
+"Let's get married!" Tom said. "You can be the bride and I can be the groom."
+
+"Okay!" Lily said. "But we have to make a will first."
+
+"A will? What is that?" Tom asked.
+
+"It is a paper that says who gets your things when you are gone," Lily explained. "My mom and dad have one. They said it is very important to be honest and fair."
+
+"Okay, let's make one then," Tom agreed. They took a crayon and a piece of paper and wrote their names and what they wanted to give each other.
+
+"I give you my bike, my teddy bear and my candy," Tom wrote.
+
+"I give you my doll, my book and my necklace," Lily wrote.
+
+They signed their names and put the paper in a safe place. Then they put on the flowers, the ring and the veil and held hands.
+
+"Do you want to marry me?" Tom asked.
+
+"Yes, I do!" Lily said.
+
+They kissed and hugged and said they were very happy.
+
+But they did not know that a big wind was coming. The wind blew very hard and took away their flowers, their ring and their veil. It also took away their paper with their will.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom and Lily cried. "Our things are gone!"
+
+They ran after them, but they could not catch them. They felt very sad and angry.
+
+But then they looked at each other and smiled.
+
+"It's okay," Tom said. "We still have each other. And we are still married."
+
+"Yes, we are," Lily said. "And we are still honest and fair. We don't need things to be happy."
+
+They hugged and kissed again and went back to play. They knew they had something more important than things. They had love.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. They used pots and pans and spoons and bowls. They also used things from the fridge and the freezer.
+
+"Look, I made ice cream!" Lily said. She opened the freezer and took out a tub of vanilla. She scooped some into a cone and gave it to Ben.
+
+"Thank you, Lily!" Ben said. He licked the ice cream and smiled. "It is very cold and sweet!"
+
+Lily wanted some ice cream too. She reached for the freezer again. But she was too small and the freezer was too high. She stood on her toes and stretched her arm. She almost touched the tub, but then she slipped and fell.
+
+"Ow!" Lily cried. She hurt her knee and her elbow. She also dropped the cone and the ice cream splattered on the floor.
+
+Ben ran to help her. He hugged her and said, "Are you okay, Lily?"
+
+Lily nodded, but she was still sad. She missed her ice cream. She also missed her mom, who was at work.
+
+"Freezer is dangerous," Lily said. "We should not play with it."
+
+"You are right, Lily," Ben said. "Freezer is for grown-ups. We should play with something else."
+
+He looked around the kitchen and saw a box of crayons and some paper. He had an idea.
+
+"Let's draw ice cream!" he said. "We can make any flavor we want!"
+
+Lily liked that idea. She wiped her tears and smiled. She picked up a crayon and started to draw.
+
+They drew ice cream until mom came home. Mom saw their pictures and their mess. She was not happy, but she was also proud.
+
+"You are very creative, Lily and Ben," she said. "But next time, please ask me before you use the freezer. It is dangerous for little kids."
+
+She gave them a hug and a kiss. She also gave them a real ice cream as a treat.
+
+Lily and Ben were happy. They ate their ice cream and showed mom their drawings. They did not miss the freezer anymore.
+Lily and Tom are playing in the park. They like to swing, slide and run. They are having fun. But then they see a big cloud in the sky. It is dark and scary. It looks like rain.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily says. "We have to hurry. We don't want to get wet."
+
+"OK," Tom says. "Let's go to the car. Mom is waiting for us."
+
+They run to the car. They hold hands. They are fast. But the rain is faster. It starts to fall. It is cold and wet. It makes them shiver.
+
+They reach the car. Mom opens the door. She smiles. She has a towel. She wraps them in the towel. She hugs them.
+
+"Are you OK?" Mom asks.
+
+"Yes," Lily says. "But we are wet."
+
+"And we are cold," Tom says.
+
+Mom kisses them. She says, "Don't worry. You will be dry and warm soon. You are normal kids. Normal kids like to play in the park. And normal kids get wet sometimes. It's OK."
+
+She tickles their noses. They giggle. They feel better. They love Mom. Mom loves them. They are happy.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had many toys, but their favorite was a rag doll that their grandma had made for them. They named her Rose and took her everywhere.
+
+One day, they saw a big sunflower in the garden. It was taller than them and had a bright yellow face. They wanted to pick it and give it to Rose, but their mom said no.
+
+"That sunflower is alive, just like you and Rose. It needs water and sun to grow. If you pick it, it will die and be empty. You don't want that, do you?" she said.
+
+Ben and Lily shook their heads. They did not want to hurt the sunflower or make it empty. They wanted it to grow and be happy.
+
+"Can we give Rose something else, then?" they asked.
+
+Their mom smiled and gave them a small basket. "Why don't you look around the garden and find some other things that Rose might like? Maybe some leaves, or stones, or feathers. But remember, only take what you need and leave the rest for the other animals and plants."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and ran off with the basket. They had fun finding different things for Rose. They gave her a green leaf for a hat, a smooth stone for a necklace, a fluffy feather for a scarf, and a red berry for a nose. They put her in the basket and showed her to their mom.
+
+"Look, mom, we made Rose a gift. She looks so pretty and happy. And we did not hurt the sunflower or make it empty. We left it to grow and smile at the sun," they said.
+
+Their mom hugged them and praised them. "You did a great job, Ben and Lily. You are very kind and creative. You made Rose happy, and you respected the sunflower and the garden. That is a very good thing to do. I am proud of you."
+
+Ben and Lily smiled and hugged their mom and Rose. They learned that they could have fun and be nice without taking what was not theirs. They also learned that living things need love and care to grow and be happy. They decided to visit the sunflower every day and say hello. They hoped it would grow bigger and brighter. They were happy and grateful for their toys, their mom, and their garden.
+Mia and Leo liked to help Mom with the clothes. They put the wet clothes in the machine that made them dry. They pushed the buttons and watched the clothes spin.
+
+"Look, Mia, the machine is magic!" Leo said. "It makes the clothes warm and soft."
+
+Mia nodded. "Yes, it is a gifted machine. Mom said it was a gift from Grandma. She gave it to Mom when we were born."
+
+They waited for the machine to stop. Then they opened the door and took out the clothes. They smelled good. They folded them and put them in a basket.
+
+"Good job, Mia and Leo!" Mom said. "You are very helpful. Do you want to help me put the clothes in the drawers?"
+
+Mia and Leo smiled. They liked to help Mom. They carried the basket to the bedroom. They put the clothes in the right drawers. They felt proud.
+
+"Thank you, Mom, for the gifted machine," Mia said.
+
+"Thank you, Grandma, for the gifted machine," Leo said.
+
+Mom hugged them. "You are welcome, my gifted children. I love you very much."
+Lily and Anna were sisters who liked to play dress-up. They had a big box of clothes and hats and shoes that they could try on. Sometimes they pretended to be princesses or fairies or teachers.
+
+One day, they found a small bottle of perfume in the box. It was shiny and pink and had a flower on the lid. Lily picked up the bottle and opened it. She smelled the perfume and made a face.
+
+"Yuck! This perfume is bad! It smells like old soap!" she said.
+
+Anna wanted to smell it too. She took the bottle from Lily and sniffed it. She smiled and said, "No, this perfume is good! It smells like roses and candy!"
+
+Lily and Anna started to argue. They both wanted to keep the perfume and use it for their dress-up games. They did not want to share it.
+
+"Give it back to me! It is mine!" Lily said.
+
+"No, it is mine! I found it first!" Anna said.
+
+They pulled and tugged on the bottle until it slipped from their hands and fell on the floor. The bottle broke and the perfume spilled everywhere. The room smelled very strong and sweet.
+
+Lily and Anna stopped fighting. They looked at the broken bottle and the mess on the floor. They felt sorry and sad.
+
+They hugged each other and said, "I'm sorry. I love you."
+
+They decided to clean up the perfume and put the clothes back in the box. They agreed to share everything and not fight anymore.
+
+They went to their mom and told her what happened. Their mom was not angry. She was happy that they said sorry and made up. She said, "It's okay. Accidents happen. The perfume was not very normal anyway. It was too old and too strong. You don't need perfume to play dress-up. You are beautiful just the way you are."
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in their room. They had many toys and books and a big bed. They also had a curtain that could make their room dark or bright. Sometimes they liked to pull the curtain and pretend it was night. Then they would use a flashlight and tell stories under the blanket.
+
+One day, they were playing with the curtain when they heard their mom call them. "Lily and Ben, it's time for lunch!" she said. "Come downstairs, please." Lily and Ben did not want to stop playing. They wanted to stay in their room and have more fun. They ignored their mom and kept pulling the curtain.
+
+Their mom called them again. "Lily and Ben, I made your favorite soup. Don't let it get cold." Lily and Ben still did not listen. They thought they could eat later. They pulled the curtain harder and harder, until it ripped. The sunlight came in and made their eyes hurt. They also saw their mom standing at the door, looking angry.
+
+"Lily and Ben, what have you done?" she asked. "You spoiled the curtain. It was very nice and now it's broken. And you spoiled your lunch, too. It's not good anymore. You have to eat something else." Lily and Ben felt sorry. They did not mean to spoil the curtain or the lunch. They just wanted to play.
+
+They said sorry to their mom and hugged her. She hugged them back and said she loved them. She said they had to help her fix the curtain and clean their room. She also said they had to eat some bread and cheese instead of soup. Lily and Ben agreed. They were not hungry for soup anyway. They were sleepy from playing too much. They ate their bread and cheese and then went to bed. They dreamed of new games and new stories. They also dreamed of a new curtain.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run, slide and swing. They saw a big hill with some rocks and dirt. They wanted to climb it and see what was on top.
+
+They started to go up the hill, but Lily saw something scary. It was a white thing with holes and teeth. It looked like a head, but with no skin or hair. Lily was nervous. She did not like the white thing.
+
+"Tom, look! What is that?" she said, pointing at the white thing.
+
+Tom looked and saw the white thing too. He was not nervous. He was curious. He wanted to touch it and see what it was.
+
+"That is a skull, Lily. It is a bone from an animal that died. Maybe a dog or a cat. It is not scary. It is just old and dirty," he said, walking towards the skull.
+
+Lily did not want to go near the skull. She thought it was scary and gross. She wanted to go back to the slide and the swing. She called Tom to come with her.
+
+"Tom, come back! I don't like the skull. Let's play somewhere else," she said, pulling his arm.
+
+Tom did not want to leave the skull. He thought it was cool and interesting. He wanted to keep it and show it to his mom and dad. He called Lily to stay with him.
+
+"Lily, stay here! I like the skull. Let's keep it and play with it. We can pretend it is a pirate or a dinosaur," he said, holding the skull.
+
+Lily and Tom did not agree. They both wanted to do different things. They started to argue and shout. They did not have fun anymore.
+
+A lady who worked at the park heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw the skull and was surprised. She did not know how it got there. She took it away and told Lily and Tom to be careful and not touch things they did not know.
+
+She also told them to stop arguing and play nicely. She said they could both have fun if they listened to each other and shared their ideas. She said they could find other things to play with, like sticks, leaves and flowers.
+
+Lily and Tom said sorry to each other and to the lady. They decided to try to play together and have fun. They went down the hill and found a big stick. They pretended it was a sword and had a pretend fight. They laughed and smiled. They were happy again.
+Ben and Mia are playing with sand in the park. They have a big bucket and a small shovel. They want to make a sand castle.
+
+"Let's fill the bucket with sand," Ben says. He digs with the shovel and puts sand in the bucket. Mia helps him. They fill the bucket until it is full.
+
+"Now we need to turn the bucket over," Mia says. She holds the bucket with both hands and flips it on the ground. The sand comes out in a shape like a tower.
+
+"Wow, we made a tower!" Ben says. He claps his hands. He wants to make more towers.
+
+"Let's make a wall around the tower," Mia says. She digs more sand and makes a long line. Ben joins her. They make a wall that goes around the tower.
+
+They are happy with their sand castle. They look at it with open eyes. They smile with open lips.
+
+"Look, Mommy, look!" Ben shouts. He waves his hand. Mommy is sitting on a bench nearby. She sees their sand castle.
+
+"That's a beautiful sand castle, Ben and Mia," Mommy says. She walks over to them. She gives them a hug and a kiss.
+
+"Thank you, Mommy," Ben and Mia say. They hug and kiss her back. They are proud of their sand castle. They want to play more.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the old barn. They liked to pretend they were pirates and look for treasure. They found a big chest with a lock on it.
+
+"Maybe there are gold and jewels inside!" Lily said.
+
+"Let's open it!" Tom said. He tried to break the lock with a stick, but it was too hard.
+
+They heard a noise behind them. They turned around and saw a big red cat. It had yellow eyes and sharp teeth. It was angry and hungry.
+
+"Meow!" the cat said. It jumped at them.
+
+Lily and Tom were scared. They ran to the door, but it was closed. They shivered and hugged each other.
+
+"Help!" they cried.
+
+The cat came closer and closer. It was ready to pounce.
+
+Suddenly, they heard another noise. It was their dad. He had heard their cries and came to save them. He opened the door and saw the cat.
+
+"Shoo!" he said. He threw a broom at the cat. The cat was scared and ran away.
+
+Lily and Tom were happy and relieved. They ran to their dad and hugged him.
+
+"Thank you, dad!" they said.
+
+"You're welcome, kids. But what were you doing in the old barn? It's dirty and dangerous. Look at all the dust and cobwebs!" he said.
+
+"We were looking for treasure, dad. We found a chest, but we couldn't open it," Lily said.
+
+"Maybe it's better to leave it alone, kids. You never know what's inside. Maybe it's a trap or a curse. Come on, let's go home and have some cookies," he said.
+
+Lily and Tom agreed. They followed their dad and left the old barn. They decided to play something else next time.
+Sara liked to play in the backyard with her dog, Spot. She felt happy when she ran and threw the ball for him. Spot was big and furry and he always came back to her. Sara felt safe with Spot in the backyard.
+
+One day, Sara saw a new thing in the backyard. It was shiny and round and had a hole in it. Sara was curious and wanted to touch it. She left Spot and walked to the new thing. She did not know it was a trap.
+
+When Sara put her hand in the hole, the trap snapped and hurt her. Sara screamed and cried. She felt scared and hurt. She wanted Spot to help her. But Spot was far away and did not hear her.
+
+A man came from the other side of the fence. He had a big bag and a mean face. He saw Sara and the trap. He laughed and said, "I got you, little girl. You are mine now." He grabbed Sara and put her in the bag. He ran away with her.
+
+Spot heard Sara's scream and ran to the trap. He saw the blood and the bag and the man. He barked and chased the man. But the man was too fast and got in a car. Spot could not catch him. He felt sad and angry. He lost his friend. He did not feel safe in the backyard anymore.
+Tom and Lily were twins who lived in a big house with many toys. They were wealthy, but not happy. They liked to tease each other and make each other cry. One day, they found a big loop of rope in the garage. They had an idea.
+
+They took the loop to the garden and tied it to a tree. They said they would play a game. Tom said he would go first. He put his head inside the loop and pretended to be a lion. He roared and growled. Lily laughed and said he was silly.
+
+Then Lily said it was her turn. She put her head inside the loop and pretended to be a princess. She smiled and waved. Tom did not laugh. He pulled the loop tight and said he would not let her go. He said she was mean and he did not like her.
+
+Lily felt scared and hurt. She tried to get out of the loop, but it was too tight. She cried and begged Tom to let her go. Tom did not listen. He said he would keep her there forever.
+
+But then their mom came and saw what was happening. She was angry and shocked. She untied the loop and freed Lily. She hugged her and said she was sorry. She scolded Tom and said he was naughty and cruel. She said he had to say sorry to Lily and share his toys with her.
+
+Tom felt ashamed and sorry. He realized he had gone too far. He said sorry to Lily and gave her his favorite teddy bear. Lily forgave him and gave him a hug. They decided to stop teasing each other and be nice. They played with their toys and had fun. They were wealthy, but now they were also happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy soldiers on the porch. They liked to make them march and fight and pretend they were in a big war. Lily was the leader of the red team and Ben was the leader of the blue team.
+
+"March, march, march!" Lily shouted, moving her soldiers forward. "We are going to win!"
+
+"No, we are not!" Ben said, moving his soldiers back. "We are going to stop you!"
+
+They made their soldiers clash and make loud noises. They had fun for a while, but then they started to argue.
+
+"You are cheating!" Lily said, grabbing one of Ben's soldiers. "You moved him too far!"
+
+"No, I did not!" Ben said, grabbing one of Lily's soldiers. "You moved her too fast!"
+
+They pulled and tugged on the soldiers, trying to get them back. They got angry and frustrated. They did not want to share or play nice.
+
+"Give it back!" Lily said.
+
+"No, you give it back!" Ben said.
+
+They were so busy fighting that they did not hear their mom calling them from inside the house.
+
+"Lily! Ben! Time for lunch!" Mom said.
+
+But they did not listen. They kept fighting and fighting.
+
+Mom came out to the porch and saw them. She was not happy. She took the soldiers away from them and put them in a basket.
+
+"Enough!" Mom said. "You two need a time out. No more playing with the soldiers until you can get along."
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They felt sorry and ashamed. They did not want to lose their soldiers or make their mom mad.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Lily said.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Ben said.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them.
+
+"It's okay," Mom said. "I know you love playing with the soldiers, but you also need to love each other. Why don't you say sorry to each other and then we can have lunch?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They turned to each other and said sorry. They hugged and made up.
+
+"Can we play with the soldiers again later?" Lily asked.
+
+"Only if you can share and play nice," Mom said.
+
+"We can, we can!" Ben said.
+
+"Okay, then," Mom said. "But first, let's go inside and have some yummy sandwiches and juice. Come on, march, march, march!"
+
+Lily and Ben followed Mom inside, holding hands and smiling. They learned their lesson and decided to be better friends. They still liked to play with the soldiers, but they also liked to play with each other.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play in the garden. They liked to look at the flowers that bloom in the spring. They liked to smell the roses, touch the daisies, and count the petals. One day, they saw a new flower that they had never seen before. It was big and bright and had many colors.
+
+"Wow, look at that flower!" Anna said. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Let's go and see it!" Ben said. They ran to the flower and bent down to look at it closely.
+
+But when they got closer, they saw something strange. The flower had a tooth in the middle of it. A big, white, shiny tooth.
+
+"Hey, that's not a flower!" Ben said. "That's a fake flower! Someone put a tooth in it!"
+
+"Who would do that?" Anna said. "That's silly!"
+
+They heard a laugh behind them. They turned around and saw their big brother, Sam. He was holding a camera and a bag of fake flowers.
+
+"Gotcha!" Sam said. "I made these fake flowers with teeth and put them in the garden. I wanted to see your faces when you saw them. It was so funny!"
+
+Anna and Ben were not happy. They felt tricked and fooled. They did not like Sam's joke.
+
+"That's not funny, Sam!" Anna said. "That's mean! You scared us and ruined the real flowers!"
+
+"Yeah, Sam!" Ben said. "You should not play with teeth! They are not toys! They are for eating and smiling!"
+
+Sam shrugged. He did not care. He thought he was clever and funny. He put the camera and the bag of fake flowers in his pocket and walked away.
+
+"Come on, Anna," Ben said. "Let's go and find some real flowers. Maybe we can make a crown or a necklace with them."
+
+"OK, Ben," Anna said. "But let's be careful. Maybe there are more fake flowers with teeth in the garden."
+
+They walked away from the fake flower with the tooth. They did not see the bee that was flying towards it. The bee thought the fake flower was a real flower. It wanted to get some nectar from it. It landed on the tooth and tried to suck it. But the tooth was hard and cold and had no nectar. The bee was angry and confused. It stung the tooth and flew away.
+
+The tooth hurt. It was not a real tooth. It was a fake tooth that Sam had taken from his grandpa's dentures. Sam had forgotten to put it back. He did not know that his grandpa was looking for it. He did not know that his grandpa was going to be very mad when he found out. He did not know that his joke was going to backfire on him. He did not know that he was in big trouble.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with blocks and dolls. One day, Lily brings a new doll to school. It is big and pretty, with long hair and a pink dress. Lily loves her new doll very much.
+
+Ben sees Lily's new doll and wants to play with it. He asks Lily, "Can I see your doll? It is so nice."
+
+Lily says, "No, Ben. This is my doll. You have your own blocks. Go play with them."
+
+Ben feels sad and angry. He thinks Lily is mean. He decides to tease her. He waits until Lily is not looking and takes her doll. He runs away with it and hides behind a tree.
+
+Lily looks for her doll and cannot find it. She feels scared and sad. She asks the teacher, "Where is my doll? I can't find it."
+
+The teacher says, "Don't worry, Lily. We will find your doll. Maybe someone took it by mistake."
+
+The teacher looks around and sees Ben behind the tree. She goes to him and says, "Ben, do you have Lily's doll?"
+
+Ben says, "Yes, I do. I took it because she did not let me play with it. It is not fair."
+
+The teacher says, "Ben, that is not nice. You should not take things that are not yours. You should not tease Lily. She values her doll very much. It is a gift from her grandma. How would you feel if someone took your blocks?"
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He remembers how he loves his blocks and how he builds towers and bridges with them. He feels sorry for Lily. He says, "I would feel bad. I would miss my blocks. I am sorry, teacher. I am sorry, Lily. I will give you back your doll."
+
+The teacher says, "That is good, Ben. You are smart. You know how to say sorry and how to share. Come on, let's go to Lily and give her back her doll."
+
+Ben and the teacher go to Lily and give her back her doll. Lily is happy to see her doll. She hugs it and says, "Thank you, Ben. Thank you, teacher. I am sorry I did not let you play with my doll. Do you want to play with it now?"
+
+Ben says, "Yes, please. I would like to play with your doll. Can I comb her hair?"
+
+Lily says, "Yes, you can. And I can play with your blocks. We can build a house for the doll."
+
+Ben and Lily smile and play together. They are friends again. The teacher is proud of them. She says, "You are both very smart and kind. You know how to value your things and your friends. Well done!"
+Jenny and Sam were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had a lot of toys, but their favorite was the computer. The computer had many games and pictures and sounds that they enjoyed. They always took turns to use the computer, and they shared it nicely.
+
+One day, their mom said she had a surprise for them. She brought them a big box with a bow on it. She said it was a gift from their grandma, who loved them very much. Jenny and Sam were very excited. They opened the box and saw a new computer. It was bigger and brighter and had more buttons than their old one.
+
+"Wow, thank you, mom! Thank you, grandma!" they said. They hugged their mom and ran to the new computer. They wanted to try it right away.
+
+But then they had a problem. They both wanted to use the new computer first. They started to argue and push each other.
+
+"I want to go first!" said Jenny.
+
+"No, I want to go first!" said Sam.
+
+They forgot about their old computer and their mom and their grandma. They only cared about the new computer.
+
+Their mom was sad. She did not like to see them fight. She said, "Jenny, Sam, stop it. You are being very rude and selfish. You should be happy and grateful for your gift. You should not forget about your old computer and your family. You should share and take turns and be kind to each other. That is what grandma would want you to do. She is very jolly and generous and loves you both."
+
+Jenny and Sam felt ashamed. They realized they were wrong. They said sorry to their mom and to each other. They hugged and made up. They decided to use the old computer first, and then the new one. They thanked their mom and their grandma again. They played with their computers and their toys and had fun. They learned to be more respectful and thankful and loving. They were happy and jolly, just like their grandma.
+Lila and Tom are playing in the garden. They see a big sheet hanging on the line. It is green and has flowers on it.
+
+"Let's play with the sheet!" Lila says. "We can make a tent or a cape or a dress!"
+
+Tom agrees. He takes one end of the sheet and wraps it around his shoulders. He pretends to be a king. He says, "I am King Tom. You are my queen, Lila. Bow to me!"
+
+Lila laughs. She takes the other end of the sheet and makes a bow on her head. She says, "I am Queen Lila. You are my king, Tom. I bow to you!"
+
+They bow to each other and giggle. They feel happy and silly.
+
+But then they hear a noise. It is the wind. It is blowing hard. It makes the sheet fly away from them. It goes up and up in the air.
+
+"Oh no!" Lila and Tom say. "Our sheet!"
+
+They run after the sheet. They try to catch it. But it is too fast and too high. It flies over the fence and into the street.
+
+They stop at the fence. They look at the sheet. It lands on a car. The car is red and shiny. It has a big horn. It honks loudly.
+
+The driver of the car is surprised. He sees the sheet on his car. He thinks it is unusual. He says, "Hey, what is this? Who put this sheet on my car?"
+
+Lila and Tom are scared. They hide behind the fence. They hope the driver will not see them. They whisper, "Sorry, mister. It was an accident. We were just playing."
+
+They wait for the driver to go away. They hope he will not be angry. They hope he will not take their sheet. They hope they can play with it again.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play sport. They have a ball and a net. They throw the ball to each other and try to catch it. Sometimes they miss and the ball falls on the grass.
+
+One day, a new boy comes to the park. He is very tall. He has a big smile and a red hat. He walks to Lily and Ben and says hello.
+
+"Hi, I am Max. What is your name?" he asks.
+
+"I am Lily and this is Ben. We are playing sport. Do you want to play with us?" Lily says.
+
+"Yes, please. I like sport. What sport are you playing?" Max says.
+
+"We are playing catch. It is fun. You need a ball and a net. Do you have a ball?" Ben says.
+
+"No, I don't have a ball. But I have a frisbee. It is round and flat. You can throw it and catch it too. Do you want to try?" Max says.
+
+"OK, let's try. It sounds fun. How do you play frisbee?" Lily says.
+
+Max shows them how to hold the frisbee and how to throw it. He says they have to aim for the net. He throws the frisbee to Lily. She tries to catch it, but it is too high. She jumps, but she cannot reach it. The frisbee flies over the net and lands on the other side.
+
+"Wow, you are good at throwing. You are so tall. Can you teach me how to throw like that?" Lily says.
+
+"Sure, I can teach you. You have to hold the frisbee like this and swing your arm like this. Then you have to let go at the right time. Do you want to try?" Max says.
+
+Lily nods and takes the frisbee. She holds it like Max and swings her arm. She lets go and the frisbee flies to Ben. He catches it and claps his hands.
+
+"Yay, you did it. You are good at catching. Can you throw it back to me?" Ben says.
+
+Ben throws the frisbee to Max. He catches it and throws it to Lily. They take turns throwing and catching the frisbee. They have a lot of fun. They laugh and cheer. They make a new friend. They like playing sport.
+Ben and Mia love to play with their toy cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They like to drive them on the floor, on the sofa, and on the table. Sometimes they make noises like vroom, beep, and honk.
+
+One day, Ben and Mia find a big piece of cake in the kitchen. It looks very tasty. It has pink frosting and sprinkles on top. They want to eat it, but they know they have to ask their mom first.
+
+"Mom, can we have some cake?" they ask.
+
+"Sure, you can have a small piece each. But first, you have to put away your toy cars. They are all over the place," mom says.
+
+Ben and Mia nod and run to their room. They start to pick up their toy cars and put them in a box. But then they see a shiny red car that they both like. They both reach for it at the same time.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Ben says.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Mia says.
+
+They pull the car from each other and it breaks in half. They both gasp and drop the pieces.
+
+"Oh no, we broke the car!" Ben says.
+
+"We're sorry, car!" Mia says.
+
+They feel sad and hug the broken car. They wish they could fix it.
+
+They hear mom calling them from the kitchen.
+
+"Ben, Mia, your cake is ready. Come and get it before it gets cold."
+
+They look at each other and then at the car. They decide to share the car and the cake. They put the pieces in the box and go to the kitchen.
+
+"Mom, we broke our car. We're sorry," they say.
+
+Mom looks at them and smiles.
+
+"It's okay, accidents happen. I'm glad you're sharing and being nice to each other. Here, have some cake. It's very tasty."
+
+Ben and Mia smile and thank mom. They take a small piece of cake each and eat it. It is very tasty. They also share the broken car and play with it. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the sand. They had a spade and a bucket. They wanted to make a big castle with towers and walls. They worked hard and had fun.
+
+But then a big boy came. He was mean and rude. He kicked their castle and laughed. He said, "This is my sand. Go away, you babies!"
+
+Tom and Lily were upset. They did not like the big boy. They wanted to keep their castle. They said, "No, this is our sand. We made the castle. You are bad!"
+
+The big boy did not listen. He grabbed their spade and bucket. He said, "Give me your toys or I will hit you!"
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They did not want to fight. They did not want to get hurt. They looked at each other. They decided to surrender. They said, "OK, you can have our toys. But please leave us alone."
+
+The big boy took their toys and ran away. He was happy. He thought he was strong and smart.
+
+Tom and Lily were sad. They lost their toys and their castle. They had no more fun. They hugged each other and cried. They wished the big boy would be nice.
+Lily was a curious girl. She liked to ask questions and learn new things. One day, she saw her big brother Sam studying for a test. He had many books and papers on his desk.
+
+"What are you doing, Sam?" Lily asked.
+
+"I'm studying for a test, Lily. It's very important. I have to know a lot of things," Sam said.
+
+"What is a test?" Lily asked.
+
+"A test is when someone asks you questions and you have to answer them. If you answer them right, you get a good mark. If you answer them wrong, you get a bad mark," Sam explained.
+
+Lily wanted to take a test too. She thought it would be fun and easy. She took one of Sam's papers and a pencil and went to her room. She looked at the paper and tried to read the questions. But they were too hard for her. She did not know the words or the numbers. She felt sad and confused.
+
+She went back to Sam and gave him the paper. "I can't do the test, Sam. It's too hard for me," she said.
+
+Sam looked at the paper and saw that Lily had scribbled on it. He was angry and upset. "Lily, you ruined my paper! This was my homework for the test. How could you do this?" he shouted.
+
+Lily started to cry. She did not mean to make Sam angry. She just wanted to try the test. She said she was sorry and hugged Sam.
+
+Sam calmed down and hugged Lily back. He realized that Lily was just curious and wanted to learn. He said he was sorry too and that he loved her. He told her that tests are not for little girls like her. They are for big kids who study a lot. He said that Lily could learn many things by playing, reading, and listening. He said that he would help her with her questions and teach her some new words and numbers.
+
+Lily smiled and thanked Sam. She learned that tests are not fun and easy. They are hard and serious. She learned that she should not take things that are not hers. She learned that she should respect her brother's work and space. She learned that she could still be curious and learn in other ways. She learned that she and Sam loved each other.
+Tom and Sue like to draw with ink. They have many colors of ink and many papers. They draw animals, flowers, cars and houses. They are happy when they draw.
+
+One day, they go to visit their grandma. Grandma is elderly and lives in a small house. She has a cat and a garden. She is happy to see Tom and Sue.
+
+"Hello, my dear children," she says. "What do you have in your bags?"
+
+"We have ink and papers, grandma," Tom says. "We want to draw for you."
+
+"That is very nice of you," grandma says. "But be careful with the ink. It can make a mess."
+
+Tom and Sue nod. They go to the table and open their bags. They take out their ink and papers. They start to draw.
+
+"Grandma, what do you like to draw?" Sue asks.
+
+"I like to draw birds," grandma says. "They are beautiful and free. They sing and fly in the sky."
+
+"Can you show us how to draw birds, grandma?" Tom asks.
+
+"Of course, I can," grandma says. "Let me get my ink and papers. I have some in my drawer."
+
+Grandma goes to her drawer and takes out her ink and papers. She joins Tom and Sue at the table. She takes a blue ink and draws a circle. Then she adds a triangle for the beak, two ovals for the eyes, and two curves for the wings.
+
+"See, this is a bird," she says. "You can draw more birds with different colors and shapes."
+
+Tom and Sue look at grandma's bird. They think it is very pretty. They want to draw birds too. They take their ink and try to copy grandma's bird.
+
+"Grandma, you are very good at drawing," Sue says.
+
+"Thank you, Sue," grandma says. "But you are also very good. I like your bird. It has a pink beak and a green eye. It is very cute."
+
+"Thank you, grandma," Sue says. "I like your bird too. It has a blue body and a yellow eye. It is very beautiful."
+
+Tom also shows his bird to grandma. It has a red body and a black eye. It is very cool.
+
+"Thank you, Tom," grandma says. "I like your bird too. It has a red body and a black eye. It is very brave."
+
+Tom, Sue and grandma smile. They are happy with their birds. They draw more birds with different colors and shapes. They fill their papers with birds.
+
+"Grandma, can we hang our birds on the wall?" Tom asks.
+
+"Of course, you can," grandma says. "But first, let me recommend something. Let the ink dry before you hang them. Otherwise, the ink will drip and make a mess."
+
+Tom and Sue nod. They wait for the ink to dry. Then they hang their birds on the wall. They look at their birds and feel proud.
+
+"Grandma, thank you for teaching us how to draw birds," Sue says.
+
+"You are welcome, Sue," grandma says. "Thank you for drawing with me. You made me very happy."
+
+Grandma hugs Tom and Sue. They hug her back. They love their grandma and their birds. They are happy.
+Ben has a fish. His fish is blue and shiny. He likes to watch his fish swim in the tank. The tank has water and rocks and plants.
+
+But sometimes the tank gets dirty. The water is not clear and the rocks and plants are not bright. Ben knows he has to clean the tank for his fish. He asks his mom to help him.
+
+They take the fish out of the tank and put him in a bowl. They pour out the water and take out the rocks and plants. They wash them with soap and water. They rinse them well and put them back in the tank. They fill the tank with fresh water.
+
+They put the fish back in the tank. The fish is happy. He swims around and looks at the rocks and plants. The tank is clean and clear. The fish is blue and shiny. Ben is happy too. He hugs his mom and says thank you. He loves his fish.
+Anna and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They heard a knock on the door. It was their aunt, who came to visit them. She had a big bag with her.
+
+"Hello, my sweeties!" she said, and gave them a hug and a kiss. "I have a surprise for you in my bag. Do you want to see?"
+
+"Yes, yes!" Anna and Ben said, and ran to the bag. They tried to open it, but it was tied with a ribbon.
+
+"Can you help us, aunt?" Anna asked.
+
+"Of course, I can. But first, you have to guess what it is. It is something you can shake, and it makes a funny sound. What do you think it is?" aunt said, and smiled.
+
+Anna and Ben thought hard. They looked at each other, and then at the bag.
+
+"Is it a ball?" Ben guessed.
+
+"No, it is not a ball. A ball does not make a sound when you shake it." aunt said.
+
+"Is it a bell?" Anna guessed.
+
+"No, it is not a bell. A bell is too small to fit in my bag." aunt said.
+
+"Is it a drum?" Ben guessed again.
+
+"No, it is not a drum. A drum is too big to fit in my bag." aunt said.
+
+Anna and Ben were puzzled. They could not think of anything else that could shake and make a sound.
+
+"Can you give us a hint, aunt?" Anna asked.
+
+"OK, I will give you a hint. It is something you can eat, and it is very yummy. And it is perfect for when you are hungry." aunt said.
+
+Anna and Ben's eyes lit up. They knew what it was.
+
+"Is it a cake?" they shouted together.
+
+"Yes, it is a cake! A chocolate cake, with sprinkles and candles. I made it for you, because today is a special day. Do you know why?" aunt said, and untied the ribbon.
+
+Anna and Ben looked at each other again, and then at the calendar on the wall. They saw the date, and realized what it was.
+
+"It is our birthday!" they exclaimed.
+
+"Yes, it is your birthday! You are both four years old today. Happy birthday, my sweeties!" aunt said, and took out the cake from the bag. She shook it gently, and it made a funny sound. It was a musical cake, that played a song when you shook it.
+
+Anna and Ben clapped their hands, and laughed. They hugged their aunt, and thanked her for the cake.
+
+"Can we eat it now, aunt? We are very hungry." they said.
+
+"Of course, you can. But first, we have to sing the birthday song, and blow out the candles. Are you ready?" aunt said, and lit the candles.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded, and smiled. They were very happy. They had a wonderful aunt, and a wonderful cake. And they had each other. It was the best birthday ever.
+Lily liked to borrow books from the library. She loved to look at the pictures and learn new words. But she had a problem. She did not know how to read. She wanted to read the stories by herself, but the words were too tough for her.
+
+One day, she saw a poster on the library wall. It said: "Do you need help with reading? Come to the reading club and meet a tutor. A tutor is a friend who can teach you how to read. The reading club is every Wednesday at 4 pm." Lily was very happy. She wanted to join the reading club and meet a tutor.
+
+She told her mom about the poster and asked if she could go. Her mom said yes, but she had to finish her homework first. Lily did not like homework. She thought it was boring and hard. She wanted to play with her toys and watch TV. She did not want to do her homework.
+
+She decided to do her homework later and go to the library first. She borrowed a book that looked very interesting. It had a picture of a dragon on the cover. She thought it was a story about a brave knight and a princess. She put the book in her backpack and ran to the library.
+
+She got to the library at 4 pm. She saw a lot of kids sitting in a circle with a lady. The lady had a big smile and a name tag that said: "Miss Jane, your tutor". Lily joined the circle and said hello to Miss Jane. Miss Jane said hello back and asked her what book she had in her backpack. Lily showed her the book with the dragon. Miss Jane looked surprised and said: "This is a very tough book, Lily. It has a lot of big words and hard sentences. Are you sure you can read it?"
+
+Lily felt embarrassed. She did not want to tell Miss Jane that she could not read. She wanted to impress her and make her proud. She said: "Yes, I can read it. I read it all the time. It is my favorite book." Miss Jane smiled and said: "That's wonderful, Lily. Why don't you read it to us and share the story?"
+
+Lily felt nervous. She did not know how to read the book. She did not know what the story was about. She opened the book and looked at the words. They were too tough for her. She did not know what to do. She wished she had done her homework and learned how to read. She wished she had not lied to Miss Jane. She wished she had not borrowed the book. She wished she had a tutor.
+Tom and Sue are in school. They like to draw on the blackboard with chalk. They make animals and flowers and cars. They have fun.
+
+But one day, the chalk is dead. It does not make any marks on the blackboard. Tom and Sue are sad. They want to draw.
+
+"Maybe we can try something else," Tom says. He looks around the room. He sees a crayon on the floor. He picks it up and goes to the blackboard.
+
+He tries to draw with the crayon. But the crayon is dead too. It does not make any marks on the blackboard. Tom is sad. He throws the crayon away.
+
+Sue sees a marker on the teacher's desk. She takes it and goes to the blackboard. She tries to draw with the marker. But the marker is dead too. It does not make any marks on the blackboard. Sue is sad. She drops the marker.
+
+Tom and Sue look at the blackboard. It is empty and white. They do not know what to do.
+
+Then they hear a voice. It is the teacher. She is back from lunch. She sees Tom and Sue and the blackboard.
+
+"What are you doing?" she asks.
+
+"We want to draw, but the chalk and the crayon and the marker are dead," Tom and Sue say.
+
+The teacher smiles. She goes to the closet and opens it. She takes out a box. She gives it to Tom and Sue.
+
+"Here, try these," she says.
+
+Tom and Sue open the box. They see many colors of chalk. They are not dead. They are alive. They make marks on the blackboard.
+
+Tom and Sue are happy. They thank the teacher. They start to draw again. They make animals and flowers and cars. They have fun.
+Ben liked to play with his toy pistol. He pretended to be a brave cowboy and shoot at bad guys. One day, his pistol broke. It did not make any sound or light when he pulled the trigger. Ben was sad. He wanted to fix his pistol.
+
+He asked his mom for help. She said she did not know how to fix a pistol. She said maybe his dad could help. Ben waited for his dad to come home from work. He hoped his dad could fix his pistol.
+
+When his dad came home, Ben ran to him and showed him his pistol. His dad looked at it and smiled. He said he had a surprise for Ben. He took him to the garage and opened a big box. Inside the box, there was a new pistol. It was bigger and shinier than Ben's old pistol. It had a mysterious button on the side. Ben's dad said it was a special pistol. He said if Ben pressed the button, the pistol would make a funny noise and shoot water.
+
+Ben was very happy. He thanked his dad and hugged him. He took his new pistol and ran outside. He pressed the button and laughed. The pistol made a noise like a duck and squirted water. Ben had fun playing with his new pistol. He forgot about his old pistol. He was a happy cowboy.
+Lily and Tom were twins. They liked to play together. But they did not like to do chores. They hated to clean their room. They wanted to have fun.
+
+One day, Mom said, "Lily and Tom, you have to clean your room. It is very messy. You have toys and clothes everywhere. If you clean your room, you can go to the park and play in the maze."
+
+Lily and Tom did not want to clean their room. They wanted to go to the park right away. They loved the maze. It was big and fun. They could run and hide and find each other.
+
+They said, "Mom, please, can we go to the park first? We will clean our room later. We promise."
+
+Mom said, "No, you have to clean your room first. It is not fair to leave it dirty. You have to learn to be responsible. You can go to the park after you finish your chores."
+
+Lily and Tom were sad and angry. They hated to clean their room. They thought it was boring and hard. They wished they could go to the park and play in the maze. They did not want to listen to Mom. They wanted to have fun.
+Ben was a fish who lived in a pipe. He liked to swim in and out of the pipe, but he had no friends. He was very lonely. He wished he could find another fish to play with.
+
+One day, he saw a big shadow in the water. He thought it was another fish. He swam out of the pipe and said, "Hello, do you want to be my friend?"
+
+But the shadow was not a fish. It was a shark. The shark opened its mouth and said, "Yes, I want to be your friend. Come closer, little fish."
+
+Ben was happy. He swam closer to the shark. He did not see the sharp teeth. He did not hear the splash. He did not feel the bite.
+
+The shark ate Ben in one gulp. He was not lonely anymore. He was gone.
+Tom and Lily are playing in the park with their ball. They like to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes the ball goes too far and they have to look for it in the grass or behind the trees.
+
+One day, the ball goes over the fence and into the road. Tom and Lily are scared. They know the road is not for playing. There are big cars and buses that go fast and make loud noises. They can hurt them if they are not careful.
+
+They see a man in a blue suit and a hat. He has a whistle and a sign. He is a crossing guard. He helps people cross the road safely. He sees the ball and blows his whistle. He holds up his sign and stops the cars and buses. He picks up the ball and walks to the fence.
+
+"Is this your ball?" he asks Tom and Lily. They nod and say yes. He smiles and gives them the ball. "Be careful, kids. Don't let your ball go into the road again. It's an emergency. Someone could get hurt."
+
+Tom and Lily say thank you and sorry. They gather their ball and run back to the park. They find a nice spot with a lot of open space. They kick the ball to each other and have fun. They are happy and safe.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the barn. They liked the barn. It had many animals and things to see. But the barn was old and had some holes in the roof. When it rained, the water came in and made the animals wet and sad.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily saw a big truck outside the barn. A man came out of the truck. He had a hat, a hammer and some nails. He said, "Hello, kids. I'm here to fix the barn. It needs a new roof. Do you want to help me?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They wanted to help. They liked the man. He was nice and friendly. He gave them some gloves and a ladder. He said, "You can hold the nails for me and pass me the boards. Be careful and don't fall. The ladder is mighty high."
+
+Tom and Lily climbed the ladder with the man. They saw the holes in the roof. They saw the sky and the clouds. They felt the wind and the sun. They held the nails and passed the boards. The man hammered and nailed. He fixed the roof. He made it strong and new.
+
+When he was done, he said, "Thank you, kids. You did a great job. You are mighty helpers. The barn is fixed. The animals will be happy and dry. Do you want to see them?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They wanted to see the animals. They climbed down the ladder with the man. They went inside the barn. They saw the cows, the horses, the pigs, the chickens and the ducks. They heard them moo, neigh, oink, cluck and quack. They felt them lick, nuzzle, snort, peck and flap. They smiled and laughed. They loved the animals. They loved the barn. They loved the man. He fixed the barn. He was mighty nice.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with toys. One day, they saw a big package outside their door. It had their names on it and a picture of a train. They were very happy and ran to open it.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Tom said. "It has a train, a track, a station, and a bridge. Let's test it and see how it works."
+
+"Okay, but be careful," Lily said. "We have to share and not break anything."
+
+They took out the train and the track and set them up on the floor. They put batteries in the train and turned it on. The train started to move and make noises. It went around the track and over the bridge. Tom and Lily clapped and cheered.
+
+"This is so fun!" Tom said. "I want to drive the train. Give me the controller."
+
+"No, it's my turn," Lily said. "You had it first. Let me have it."
+
+They both pulled on the controller and started to fight. The train went faster and faster. It bumped into the station and knocked it over. It crashed into the bridge and broke it. The train fell off the track and stopped working.
+
+Tom and Lily stopped fighting and looked at the mess. They felt very sad and sorry. They had ruined their new toy. They wished they had been nicer to each other.
+
+They heard a knock on the door. It was their mom. She had been out shopping. She saw the package and the broken toy. She was very angry and disappointed.
+
+"What did you do?" she asked. "This was a gift from your grandma. She sent it to you because she loves you and misses you. She wanted you to have fun and learn. But you were selfish and careless. You did not share and you did not take care of your toy. You are very poor children."
+
+Tom and Lily felt ashamed and guilty. They knew their mom was right. They had been bad. They wanted to say sorry to their mom and their grandma. They wanted to fix their toy and play nicely. They hugged each other and cried.
+
+"Mom, we are sorry," they said. "We love you and grandma. We will be good and share and take care of our toys. Please forgive us."
+
+Mom hugged them and wiped their tears. She was still angry, but she also loved them. She wanted them to learn from their mistake and be better children.
+
+"I forgive you, but you have to work hard to make it up," she said. "You have to help me clean up this mess. You have to write a letter to grandma and tell her what happened and how sorry you are. You have to save your money and buy a new toy for yourselves. And you have to promise me that you will never fight over a toy again."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and agreed. They helped mom clean up the mess. They wrote a letter to grandma and put it in an envelope. They put their piggy banks on the table and counted their coins. They promised mom that they would never fight over a toy again.
+
+They learned a hard lesson that day. They learned that toys are not as important as family and friends. They learned that sharing and caring are better than fighting and breaking. They learned that being good and grateful are better than being poor and sorry.
+Lily liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Velvet. Velvet had soft hair, a pretty dress, and shiny shoes. Lily loved to brush Velvet's hair and make her talk.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to have a tea party with Velvet and her other dolls. She set a small table with cups and plates and cookies. She invited Velvet and her other dolls to sit around the table. She poured pretend tea and gave them cookies. She said, "Hello, Velvet. How are you today? Do you like the tea?"
+
+Velvet did not answer. She was a doll, and dolls cannot talk. But Lily pretended that Velvet said, "I am fine, Lily. Thank you for the tea. It is very good."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "You are welcome, Velvet. You are my best friend. I like to play with you."
+
+But then, Lily heard a loud noise. It was her brother, Tom. Tom was older than Lily, and he liked to tease her. He saw Lily playing with her dolls and he laughed. He said, "What are you doing, Lily? Are you talking to your dolls? That is foolish. Dolls cannot talk. They are not real. They are just toys."
+
+Lily felt angry and sad. She said, "No, Tom. You are foolish. Velvet is real. She is my friend. She can talk to me. You are mean. Go away."
+
+Tom did not go away. He grabbed Velvet from the table and ran away. He said, "Velvet is mine now. I will make her talk. I will make her say funny things."
+
+Lily cried and chased Tom. She said, "Give me back Velvet. She is mine. She is not funny. She is nice."
+
+Tom and Lily ran around the house, fighting over Velvet. They did not see their mother, who was watching them. She was not happy. She said, "Stop, Tom and Lily. What are you doing? Why are you fighting over a doll? That is not nice. That is not how you treat your toys or your sister or your brother."
+
+Tom and Lily stopped and looked at their mother. They felt sorry. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We were playing, but we got angry."
+
+Their mother said, "Playing is good, but fighting is bad. You should share your toys and be kind to each other. You should respect Lily's feelings and Tom's jokes. You should say sorry to each other and to Velvet."
+
+Tom and Lily said sorry to each other and to Velvet. They hugged and made up. They gave Velvet back to Lily and asked her to join their tea party. They said, "Hello, Velvet. How are you today? Do you want some tea?"
+
+Velvet did not answer. She was a doll, and dolls cannot talk. But Lily, Tom, and their mother pretended that Velvet said, "I am fine, thank you. I would love some tea. You are all my friends. I like to play with you."
+Lily was a wise cat. She knew how to find the best spots to nap in the sun. She liked to nap on the couch, on the rug, on the bed, and sometimes on the window sill. She could see many sights from the window sill, like birds, cars, and people.
+
+One day, Lily was napping on the window sill when she heard a loud noise. She opened her eyes and saw a big dog outside. The dog was barking and jumping at the fence. Lily did not like dogs. They were noisy and scary. She wanted to nap in peace.
+
+Lily decided to move to another spot. She jumped off the window sill and walked to the couch. But the couch was already taken by Max, the other cat. Max was sleeping and did not want to share. He hissed at Lily and scratched her nose. Lily did not like Max. He was mean and selfish. She wanted to nap in comfort.
+
+Lily looked for another spot. She saw the rug in the living room. It looked soft and cozy. She walked to the rug and curled up on it. But the rug was not as nice as it seemed. It was dusty and itchy. Lily sneezed and scratched her fur. She did not like the rug. It was dirty and uncomfortable. She wanted to nap in cleanliness.
+
+Lily felt sad and tired. She could not find a good spot to nap. She wished she had a spot that was quiet, friendly, and clean. She wandered around the house, hoping to find one. She came to the bedroom, where she saw a sight that made her happy. It was her human, Anna. Anna was lying on the bed, reading a book. She smiled when she saw Lily and patted the bed. She said, "Come here, Lily. You can nap with me. I love you."
+
+Lily felt warm and loved. She jumped on the bed and snuggled with Anna. Anna stroked her fur and kissed her head. Lily purred and closed her eyes. She had found the best spot to nap. She liked Anna. She was kind and gentle. She was Lily's friend. Lily was a wise cat. She knew how to find the best spots to nap in the sun. And sometimes, the best spot was not in the sun, but in the arms of someone who loved her.
+Sara and Ben went to the park with Mom. They saw a big goat with horns and a beard. The goat was eating grass near a fence.
+
+"Can we pet the goat, Mom?" Sara asked.
+
+"Be careful, Sara. The goat might be friendly, but he might also bite or butt," Mom said.
+
+Sara and Ben walked slowly to the fence. They held out their hands with some grass. The goat came closer and sniffed their hands. He licked the grass and made a funny sound.
+
+"Hello, goat. You are soft and warm," Sara said. She touched the goat's fur gently.
+
+"Hello, goat. You are big and strong," Ben said. He rubbed the goat's horns carefully.
+
+The goat seemed to like Sara and Ben. He wagged his tail and nuzzled their hands. Mom smiled and took a picture.
+
+"Say cheese, Sara and Ben. You made a new friend," Mom said.
+
+"Cheese!" Sara and Ben said. They smiled and hugged the goat. The goat smiled too. He was happy in the park.
+Ben and Mia like to play in the garden. They see many bugs and flowers. They also see a lizard. The lizard is green and has a long tail. Ben wants to catch the lizard. He runs after it.
+
+"Wait for me, Ben!" Mia says. She follows him. The lizard is fast. It runs under a rock. Ben reaches for it. He pinches its tail. The lizard does not like it. It bites Ben's finger. Ben cries.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Ben says. He lets go of the lizard. The lizard runs away. Mia comes to Ben. She sees his finger. It is red and has a mark.
+
+"Are you okay, Ben?" Mia asks. She hugs him. Ben nods. He is brave. He does not cry anymore.
+
+"I'm sorry, lizard," Ben says. He looks at the rock. He does not see the lizard. He thinks the lizard is deaf. He does not hear him.
+
+"It's okay, Ben," Mia says. She smiles. "The lizard is not deaf. He is just scared. He does not like to be pinched. Next time, we can watch him from far. He is very pretty."
+
+Ben smiles too. He agrees. He and Mia go back to play. They find a butterfly. They do not pinch it. They wave at it. The butterfly flies away. Ben and Mia are happy. They love the garden.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play and learn new things. One day, they went with their mom and dad to a big church. They saw many people inside the church, singing and praying. Sara and Ben wanted to join them, but they did not know the words or the rules.
+
+"Mom, can we sing too?" Sara asked.
+
+"Of course, my dear. You can sing and praise God with your own voice. He loves you and welcomes you to his house," Mom said.
+
+"Dad, can we pray too?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, my son. You can pray and talk to God with your own words. He listens to you and welcomes you to his family," Dad said.
+
+Sara and Ben felt happy and curious. They followed their mom and dad to a place where there was a big pool of water. They saw some people go into the water and come out wet. They wondered what they were doing.
+
+"Mom, what are they doing?" Sara asked.
+
+"They are being baptized, my dear. It means they are showing everyone that they love God and want to follow him. The water is deep, but they are not afraid. God is with them and welcomes them to his kingdom," Mom said.
+
+"Dad, can we do that too?" Ben asked.
+
+"Maybe someday, my son. When you are older and understand more about God and his love. For now, you can watch and learn and be happy for them. God is proud of them and welcomes them to his grace," Dad said.
+
+Sara and Ben nodded and clapped their hands. They felt glad and thankful. They learned that God is good and kind and welcomes everyone who loves him. They decided to love God and each other more every day.
+Tom and Anna like to pretend they are astronauts. They have a big cardboard box that they call their rocket. They draw buttons and windows on it with crayons. They put on their helmets and backpacks and get inside the box.
+
+"Ready for blast off?" Tom asks Anna.
+
+"Yes, ready!" Anna says.
+
+They count down from ten to one and make loud noises with their mouths. They pretend the box is shaking and flying up to the sky. They look out of the windows and see stars and planets.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Tom says, pointing to a big red ball. "That is Mars!"
+
+"Let's go there!" Anna says.
+
+They pretend to steer the box towards Mars. They land on the dry and dusty ground. They get out of the box and jump around. They pretend the air is thin and they need gas to breathe. They use their backpacks as gas tanks and their helmets as masks.
+
+"This is so fun!" Anna says.
+
+"Yes, it is!" Tom says.
+
+They pretend to explore Mars and find rocks and aliens. They have a great time pretending they are astronauts. They forget about everything else. They are happy.
+Lily and Max are twins. They like to play with their toys and make sounds. Lily likes to sing and Max likes to drum. One day, they decide to put on a show for their mom and dad.
+
+They go to their room and practice. Lily sings a song she learned at school. Max drums on a box and a can. They sound good together. They are happy and excited.
+
+They go to the living room and call their mom and dad. Mom and dad sit on the couch and smile. Lily and Max stand in front of them and say, "We have a show for you!"
+
+Lily starts to sing and Max starts to drum. They make a lot of sound. Mom and dad clap and cheer. They encourage Lily and Max to keep going. Lily and Max feel brave and happy.
+
+They finish their show and bow. Mom and dad hug them and say, "You did a great job! We are so proud of you!" Lily and Max smile and say, "Thank you! We love you!" They are proud of themselves too. They had fun making sounds and putting on a show.
+Lily was very sad. She wanted to go to the park with her mom and dad, but they were too busy. Mom had to work on her laptop and dad had to fix the car. Lily sighed and looked out the window. She saw other kids playing on the swings and slides. She wished she could join them.
+
+She went to her room and found her favorite shoe. It was pink and sparkly and had a flower on it. She put it on her foot and pretended it was a magic shoe. She said, "Magic shoe, take me to the park!" But nothing happened. She tried again, but still nothing. She sighed again and took off the shoe.
+
+She heard a knock on the door. It was dad. He smiled and said, "Lily, I have a surprise for you. Come with me." He took her hand and led her to the car. He opened the door and said, "Look who's here!" It was mom. She had finished her work and was ready to go to the park. She hugged Lily and said, "We're sorry we made you wait, sweetie. We love you very much. Let's go have some fun!"
+
+Lily was very happy. She put on her other shoe and jumped into the car. She said, "Thank you, mom and dad! You're the best!" They drove to the park and played on the swings and slides. Lily had a lot of fun. She forgot about her magic shoe. She didn't need it anymore. She had her mom and dad. She sighed, but this time it was a happy sigh.
+Lisa and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a ball and a bike. They take turns to ride the bike and kick the ball.
+
+One day, a big dog comes to the park. The dog is playful. He wants to play with Lisa and Ben. He runs after the ball and catches it in his mouth. He barks and wags his tail.
+
+Lisa and Ben are scared. They do not know the dog. They think he is mean. They run to the bike and try to get away. But the dog is faster. He jumps on the bike and knocks it over. Lisa and Ben fall on the grass. The dog licks their faces.
+
+"Stop it! Go away!" Lisa cries. "You are not nice! You are bad!"
+
+The dog does not understand. He thinks Lisa and Ben are having fun. He wags his tail more.
+
+Some people see what is happening. They laugh. They think the dog is cute. They think Lisa and Ben are funny.
+
+Lisa and Ben feel embarrassed. They do not like to be laughed at. They are angry and sad. They want the dog to leave them alone.
+
+A man comes to the park. He is the dog's owner. He sees the dog and Lisa and Ben. He calls the dog.
+
+"Rex! Come here, boy! What are you doing? You are making trouble!"
+
+The dog hears his name. He drops the ball and runs to the man. He wags his tail.
+
+The man apologizes to Lisa and Ben. He says he is sorry. He says the dog is playful. He says the dog likes children. He says the dog did not mean to scare them.
+
+Lisa and Ben are still scared. They do not trust the dog. They do not trust the man. They pick up the ball and the bike. They say goodbye to the man and the dog. They go home.

+They do not want to play in the park anymore. They do not like the heat. They do not like the dog. They do not like to be embarrassed. They want to play in their own yard. They want to be safe and happy.
+Lily and Ben were twins. They liked to play together and share their toys. But sometimes they fought over things. One day, their grandma sent them a big envelope in the mail. It had a card and a gift for each of them.
+
+Lily and Ben were very happy to see the envelope. They ran to open it. But they both wanted to open it first. They pulled on the envelope from both sides. They pulled harder and harder. Then the envelope split in two. The card and the gifts fell out.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at the card and the gifts. The card said, "Happy birthday, Lily and Ben! I love you very much. Grandma." The gifts were two books. One was a fairy tale book for Lily. The other was a dinosaur book for Ben.
+
+Lily and Ben loved books. They wanted to read their books right away. But they also wanted to see each other's books. They looked at the books and saw that they were very nice and expensive. They had many pictures and words. They felt bad that they had split the envelope.
+
+They said sorry to each other. They hugged and kissed. They decided to share their books and read them together. They thanked grandma for the card and the gifts. They were happy and proud to be twins.
+Sam and Lily were bored. They had nothing to do on a rainy day. They looked out the window and saw a big puddle. They wanted to splash in it, but their mom said no.
+
+"Can we play with our toys?" Sam asked.
+
+"You have played with them all morning. Why don't you read a book or draw a picture?" Mom said.
+
+But Sam and Lily did not feel like reading or drawing. They felt miserable.
+
+They went to their room and saw their stuffed alligator on the bed. They decided to pretend that he was real and that they were in a jungle.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Alligator. Are you hungry?" Lily said.
+
+"Roar! Yes, I am. I want to eat you!" Sam said, making his alligator voice.
+
+Lily screamed and ran away. Sam chased her with the alligator. They laughed and had fun.
+
+But soon they got tired. They lay down on the bed with the alligator. They cuddled him and yawned.
+
+"Mr. Alligator, you are not so scary. You are soft and cozy," Lily said.
+
+"Roar! I mean, yes, I am. You are my friends," Sam said.
+
+They closed their eyes and fell asleep. They dreamed of the jungle and the puddle. They were not bored or miserable anymore.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to pretend that they were pirates and explorers, and they had a big leather chest full of treasure. They took turns to hide the chest and find it again, and they had a lot of fun.
+
+But one time, when Lily hid the chest, Tom could not find it anywhere. He looked under the sofa, behind the curtains, in the closet, but the chest was gone. He felt worried and sad. He thought that maybe someone had taken it away, or that it had vanished into thin air.
+
+He went to Lily and said, "Lily, where is the chest? I can't find it. Did you hide it very well, or did it vanish?"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Don't be worried, Tom. The chest did not vanish. I hid it very well, but I will show you where it is. Follow me."
+
+She took his hand and led him to the kitchen. There, on the table, was the leather chest, covered with a big cloth. Lily pulled the cloth away and said, "Ta-da! Here is the chest. I hid it here because I wanted to surprise you. Do you like it?"
+
+Tom was very happy and relieved. He hugged Lily and said, "I like it very much, Lily. You are very clever and kind. Thank you for showing me the chest. Can we play with it some more?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, we can. But first, let's have a snack. I'm hungry. Are you hungry?"
+
+Tom nodded and said, "Yes, I'm hungry too. Let's have a snack and then play some more. You are the best sister ever, Lily."
+
+They ate some cookies and milk, and then went back to the living room. They played with the chest and their toys until their mom came home. They told her about their game and showed her their treasure. She smiled and said, "You are very creative and sweet, Tom and Lily. I'm proud of you. Now, let's have dinner and then read a story. How does that sound?"
+
+Tom and Lily agreed and said, "That sounds great, mom. We love you."
+
+They had dinner and then read a story. They felt happy and cozy. They did not worry about the chest or anything else. They knew that they had each other, and that was the best treasure of all.
+Lily and her mom went to a big hotel for a holiday. Lily was very happy to see the big bed, the big window and the big TV in their room. She wanted to play with everything.
+
+But mom said they had to go downstairs for dinner. Lily did not want to go. She wanted to stay and play. She cried and kicked and screamed. Mom was very angry. She had to carry Lily downstairs. Lily was very loud. Everyone in the hotel looked at them. Mom was very embarrassed.
+
+At the restaurant, Lily saw a big cake on a table. She wanted some cake. She ran to the table and grabbed a big piece. But the cake was not for her. It was for a birthday party. The people at the party were very surprised. They shouted at Lily. Lily was very scared. She dropped the cake on the floor. Mom was very embarrassed.
+
+Mom said sorry to the people at the party. She gave them some money for the cake. She carried Lily back to their room. She was very tired and angry. She told Lily to go to bed. Lily was very sad. She said sorry to mom. She hugged mom and said she loved her. Mom hugged Lily and said she loved her too. She said they would have a better day tomorrow. Lily hoped so. She fell asleep in the big bed.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, Lily gets an invitation from Tom. It says, "Come to my house for cake and games. It is my birthday."
+
+Lily is happy. She tells her mom. Her mom says, "That is nice. But be careful. Tom lives in a high building. You have to take the elevator."
+
+Lily nods. She knows what an elevator is. It is a big box that goes up and down. She has seen it on TV.
+
+The next day, Lily goes to Tom's house. She rings the bell. Tom opens the door. He says, "Hi, Lily. Come in. The elevator is over there."
+
+Lily follows Tom. They get in the elevator. Tom pushes a button. The elevator starts to move. Lily feels scared. She says, "Tom, I don't like this. It is too high."
+
+Tom says, "Don't worry, Lily. It is safe. It will stop soon. Then we can have cake and games."
+
+Lily tries to be brave. She holds Tom's hand. She says, "OK, Tom. But next time, can we play in the park?"
+
+Tom says, "Sure, Lily. Next time, we can play in the park. But today, let's have fun at my house. It is my birthday."
+
+The elevator stops. The door opens. Lily and Tom get out. They see a big room with balloons and toys. They see other kids and Tom's mom. They say, "Happy birthday, Tom!"
+
+Lily smiles. She says, "Happy birthday, Tom. Your house is nice. But it is very high."
+
+Tom says, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. But don't be afraid. The elevator will take us down later. Now, let's have cake and games."
+Lily and Max were playing with their toys in the living room. They were having fun, but they were also hungry. They smelled something good from the kitchen. It was cookie time!
+
+They ran to the kitchen and saw a big plate of cookies on the table. Mom was there, too. She smiled and said, "You can have one cookie each, but first you have to sit and wash your hands."
+
+Lily and Max nodded and went to the sink. They washed their hands with soap and water. Then they looked at the cookies. They were big and round and had chocolate chips on them. They looked yummy!
+
+Lily and Max each grabbed a cookie and ran back to the living room. They wanted to eat their cookies and play some more. But when they got there, they saw that their toys were gone. Instead, there was a big dog on the couch. It was their neighbor's dog, Spot. He had sneaked into their house and took their toys. He was chewing on a teddy bear and a car. He looked happy and comfortable.
+
+Lily and Max were angry and sad. They wanted their toys back. They shouted at Spot, "Hey, that's our toys! Give them back! Go away!"
+
+Spot looked at them and growled. He did not want to share. He liked their toys. He liked their couch. He liked their cookies, too. He jumped off the couch and ran towards them. He wanted to take their cookies.
+
+Lily and Max were scared. They did not want to lose their cookies. They held their cookies tight and ran away from Spot. They ran to Mom and said, "Mom, Mom, help us! Spot is here and he took our toys and he wants our cookies!"
+
+Mom heard them and saw Spot. She was surprised and angry. She said, "Spot, bad dog! Go back to your house! Leave Lily and Max alone!"
+
+She grabbed a broom and chased Spot out of the door. She locked the door and said, "Sorry, kids. Spot is a naughty dog. He should not come here without his owner. Are you OK?"
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They were OK, but they were still hungry. They looked at their cookies. They were broken and dirty. They did not look yummy anymore.
+
+Mom saw their cookies and said, "Oh, dear. Your cookies are ruined. Don't worry, I have more in the oven. You can have another one each, but first you have to sit and wash your hands again."
+
+Lily and Max smiled and said, "OK, Mom. Thank you, Mom. We love you, Mom."
+
+They went to the sink and washed their hands again. Then they got their new cookies and ate them. They were warm and soft and sweet. They felt happy and comfortable. They forgot about Spot and their toys. They decided to play with Mom instead. They had a good cookie time.

+
+"Look, Jen, what is this?" Tim asks.
+
+"I don't know, Tim. Maybe it is a toy. Can we play with it?" Jen says.
+
+They pick up the shiny thing. They try to make sounds with it. They try to put flowers in it. They do not have much fun.
+
+"Let's hang it on the tree. Maybe it will be a bell," Tim says.
+
+They find a string. They tie the string to the hook. They hang the shiny thing on a branch. They swing the shiny thing. It makes a clink-clink sound.
+
+They are happy. They laugh and clap.
+
+Mom comes out to see them. She sees the shiny thing on the tree. She is not happy. She frowns and sighs.
+
+"Tim, Jen, what have you done? That is not a toy. That is an ashtray. It is for people who smoke. It is not for children. It is dirty and bad. You should not touch it," Mom says.
+
+She takes the ashtray down. She throws it in the trash. She washes their hands. She gives them a hug.
+
+"Next time, ask me before you play with something you don't know. I will tell you if it is available or not. I love you, Tim and Jen. Be careful and have fun," Mom says.

Sam says, "No, Tom, don't do that. Mommy says those berries are bad. They can make you sick." Tom says, "You are stupid, Sam. Mommy doesn't know everything. I want to try them. They look good." He runs to the bush and grabs some berries.
+
+Sam is scared. He doesn't want Tom to get sick. He says, "Tom, stop! Please, listen to me. Those berries are not good. They are poison. You will get a tummy ache and a fever. You will cry and hurt. Come back, Tom, come back!" He runs after Tom and tries to take the berries from his hand.
+
+Tom is angry. He doesn't want Sam to take his berries. He says, "Go away, Sam. You are not my friend. You are a meanie. You don't want me to have fun. These are my berries. I will show you. I will eat them and be happy. You will be sorry." He puts the berries in his mouth and chews them.
+
+Sam is sad. He sees Tom's face turn red. He sees Tom spit out the berries and cough. He sees Tom fall to the ground and cry. He says, "Tom, Tom, are you okay? I'm sorry, Tom. I was trying to help you. I was worried about you. You are my friend. I love you." He hugs Tom and calls for help.
+
+Tom is sorry. He feels sick and scared. He says, "Sam, Sam, I'm sorry, too. You were right. Those berries were bad. They made me sick. You were trying to help me. You were worried about me. You are my friend. I love you, too." He hugs Sam and waits for help.

+
+Mom comes in and sees the stack of blocks. She smiles and says, "Wow, you are very good at building! But it is time for nap now. You need to rest and dream." Tom and Jen do not want to nap. They want to play more. They say, "No, no, nap!"
+
+Mom says, "You can play more after nap. But first, you need to clean up the blocks. Put them back in the box. Then, you can go to your beds and nap." Tom and Jen do not like to clean up. They say, "No, no, clean up!"
+
+Mom says, "If you clean up the blocks, I will read you a story. A story about a big bear and a little mouse. Do you like that story?" Tom and Jen like that story. They say, "Yes, yes, story!"
+
+Tom and Jen start to clean up the blocks. They take them off the stack and put them in the box. They are careful not to make the stack fall. They work together and finish quickly. Then, they go to their beds and nap. Mom reads them the story. They listen and smile. They close their eyes and dream. They dream about a big bear and a little mouse. They are happy.
+Tommy did not like vegetables. He liked candy and cake and ice cream. But his mom said he had to eat some vegetables every day. She said they were good for him and made him strong and healthy.
+
+One day, mom made a big salad for lunch. She put lettuce and carrots and tomatoes and cucumbers in a big bowl. She gave Tommy a small plate with some salad on it. Tommy looked at the plate and made a face.
+
+"Mom, I don't want to eat this. I want a sandwich with cheese and ham," he said.
+
+"Tommy, you have to try some salad. It is yummy and crunchy and colorful. You might like it if you taste it," mom said.
+
+"But mom, I don't like vegetables. They are yucky and bitter and boring. They make me feel sick," Tommy said.
+
+"Tommy, don't be silly. Vegetables are not yucky or bitter or boring. They are sweet and juicy and fun. They have different shapes and sizes and colors. They are like a rainbow on your plate. And they don't make you sick. They make you well and happy. Do you understand?" mom said.
+
+Tommy thought for a moment. He looked at the salad again. He saw the green lettuce, the orange carrots, the red tomatoes, the yellow cucumbers. He saw the rainbow on his plate. He wondered if they were really sweet and juicy and fun. He decided to give them a try.
+
+He picked up a fork and stabbed a piece of lettuce. He put it in his mouth and chewed. It was crunchy and fresh. He liked it. He tried a carrot next. It was sweet and crisp. He liked it too. He tried a tomato. It was juicy and tangy. He liked it as well. He tried a cucumber. It was cool and mild. He liked it also.
+
+He ate all the salad on his plate. He felt full and happy. He smiled at his mom.
+
+"Mom, you were right. Vegetables are yummy and crunchy and colorful. I like them. Thank you for making me salad," he said.
+
+Mom smiled back at him. She was proud of him. She gave him a hug and a kiss.
+
+"You're welcome, Tommy. I'm glad you liked it. You are a good boy. You tried something new and you learned to like it. You are growing up fast. You are my big boy," she said.
+
+Tommy felt warm and cozy. He hugged his mom back. He loved his mom. He felt her tight around him. He felt her love. He understood.
+Anna and Ben went to the shop with Mom. They wanted to buy some candy and a toy. Mom gave them some money and said, "You can pay for your things by yourself. But be polite and say thank you to the shopkeeper."
+
+Anna and Ben were happy. They picked their candy and their toy and went to the counter. The shopkeeper smiled and put their things in a sack. He said, "That will be five dollars, please."
+
+Anna gave him the money and said, "Here you are. Thank you for the sack." Ben said, "Yes, thank you. We like our candy and our toy." The shopkeeper said, "You're welcome. You are very polite children. Have a nice day."

+
+"Here, Ben, have some tea. It is very good," Sara says.
+
+"Thank you, Sara. I like tea," Ben says. He takes a sip and makes a face. "But this tea is very dark. It tastes like dirt."
+
+Sara laughs. "It is not dirt, silly. It is water. We have to use our imagination. Do you know what imagination is?"
+
+Ben shakes his head. "No, what is it?"
+
+Sara explains. "Imagination is when you think of something that is not real, but you pretend it is. Like when we play with dolls and cars, we imagine they are alive and talk to us. Or when we draw pictures, we imagine they are real things. Imagination is fun. It helps us learn and be creative."
+
+Ben nods. "I see. Imagination is fun. Can I try again?"
+
+Sara smiles. "Of course. Here, have some more tea. It is not dark, it is sweet and warm. It makes you happy."
+
+Ben takes another sip and smiles. "You are right, Sara. This tea is sweet and warm. It makes me happy. Thank you for inviting me to join you for tea. You are a good friend."
+
+Sara hugs Ben. "You are welcome, Ben. You are a good friend too. I am glad we can play and imagine together."
+
+The moral of the story is: Imagination is a valuable skill that can make simple things more enjoyable and foster friendship and learning.
+Lena and Max are twins who like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They like to race them on the floor and make loud noises.

+
+"We wanted to play with our cars, mom. We thought it was water, mom. We are sorry, mom." Lena and Max say.
+
+"That is not water, that is oil. Oil is not for playing, it is for the car. Oil is expensive and hard to clean. You wasted the oil and made a big mess. You should not touch things that are not yours. You should ask before you use something. You should be careful and respectful." their mom says.
+
+Lena and Max feel bad. They know they did something wrong. They help their mom clean the oil and the cars and the bottle. They say sorry to their mom and hug her.
+
+They learn a lesson. They learn that oil is not water. They learn that they should not waste things. They learn that they should ask before they use something. They learn that they should be careful and respectful. They learn that their mom loves them and wants them to be good.

+
+"Let's get it!" Sue says. "It is ours now. We are good pirates."
+
+They reach for the coin, but it is too far. They lean over the tub, but they lose their balance. Splash! They fall into the water. They are wet and cold.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom says. "We are not good pirates. We are silly pirates."
+
+They laugh and get out of the water. They dry themselves with a towel. They don't care about the coin anymore. They hug each other and smile.
+
+"We are still good friends," Sue says. "And we still have our boat. Let's play again tomorrow."
+
+"OK," Tom says. "But next time, let's look for something else. Something that doesn't shine so much."

+
+"Let's go and say hello to the dog," Tim said. He was not afraid of dogs. He had a dog at home.
+
+"No, no, no," Sam said. He was afraid of dogs. He hid behind a tree. "The dog might bite us. It might be angry."
+
+Tim laughed. He thought Sam was silly. He walked towards the dog. He wanted to touch the cap. He thought it would be fun.
+
+But the dog did not like Tim. It did not like strangers. It did not like anyone touching its cap. It growled and barked at Tim. It showed its teeth.

+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to look for pebbles of different shapes and colors. They found some round ones, some flat ones, and some shiny ones.
+
+"Look, I have a plan!" Tom said. "Let's make a castle with our pebbles. We can use the flat ones for the walls and the round ones for the towers."
+
+"Good plan!" Lily said. "And we can use the shiny ones for the windows and the doors."
+
+They started to build their castle on the grass. They worked hard and had fun. They made a big castle with many pebbles.
+
+But then, a fierce dog came running towards them. It was big and loud and had sharp teeth. It wanted to play with the pebbles, too. It jumped on the castle and knocked it down. The pebbles flew everywhere.
+
+"Hey, stop it!" Tom shouted. "That's our castle!"
+
+"Go away!" Lily cried. "You're a bad dog!"
+
+The dog did not listen. It barked and wagged its tail. It thought the pebbles were toys.
+
+Tom and Lily were scared and sad. They ran to their mom, who was sitting on a bench. They told her what happened.
+
+"Don't worry, my loves," Mom said. "It's just a dog. It didn't mean to ruin your castle. It was just curious and playful."
+
+"But we worked so hard on our castle," Tom said.
+
+"And we had a good plan," Lily said.
+
+"I know, I know," Mom said. "But you can always make another castle. You still have your pebbles, right?"
+
+Tom and Lily looked at their pockets. They still had some pebbles left.
+
+"Yes, we do," they said.
+
+"Then let's go to another spot and start again," Mom said. "Maybe we can find some more pebbles on the way. And maybe we can make a fence around the castle, too. What do you think?"
+
+Tom and Lily smiled. They liked that idea.
+
+"OK, let's go," they said.
+
+They held Mom's hand and walked to another spot. They still liked to look for pebbles of different shapes and colors. They still liked to make plans. And they still liked to play.
+Lily and Sam were playing in the park with their bikes. They liked to race each other and see who was faster. Lily had a red bike and Sam had a blue bike.

+
+"Hello, kids," the cop said. "Do you like bikes?"
+
+"Yes, we do!" Lily and Sam said.
+
+"Me too," the cop said. "But you have to be careful when you ride. Always wear a helmet and follow the rules. And don't go too far from your parents."
+
+Lily and Sam nodded. They always listened to their parents and the cop.
+
+"Can we see your bike?" Lily asked. She liked the big bike. It had a lot of buttons and lights.
+
+"Sure," the cop said. "But don't touch anything. It's very important."
+
+He showed them his bike and explained what each button and light did. Lily and Sam were very curious and asked many questions.
+
+"Can we ride your bike?" Sam asked. He wanted to try the siren and the horn.
+
+"No, you can't," the cop said. "This bike is only for cops. It's very dangerous for kids. You have to stay on your own bikes."
+
+But Sam did not listen. He insisted that he wanted to ride the cop's bike. He tried to climb on it and reach the buttons.
+
+"Stop, Sam!" Lily said. "You can't do that. The cop said no. You have to listen."
+
+But Sam did not listen to Lily either. He kept trying to ride the cop's bike.
+
+The cop was not happy. He grabbed Sam and put him down. He scolded him and told him to be good.
+
+"Sorry, cop," Sam said. He was scared and sad. He did not mean to be bad.
+
+"It's okay, Sam," the cop said. "But you have to learn to respect other people's things. And you have to listen to your parents and the cop. They know what's best for you."
+
+Sam nodded. He learned his lesson. He said sorry to Lily too. He did not want to lose his friend.
+
+The cop smiled and gave them each a sticker. He told them to have fun and be safe. He waved goodbye and rode away.
+
+Lily and Sam waved back. They thanked the cop and went back to their bikes. They decided to race again, but this time they wore their helmets and stayed close to their parents. They could still hear the cop's siren in the distant. They wondered what he was doing. They hoped he was helping someone. They liked the cop. He was nice and smart. They wanted to be like him when they grew up.
+Lily and Max were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a doll and Max had a car. They were having fun, but Max wanted to play with the doll too.

+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily said. "You have the car."
+
+"But I want the doll!" Max said. He tried to grab the doll from Lily, but she held it tight.
+
+"Stop it, Max!" Lily said. "You are being mean!"
+
+They started to pull and tug on the doll, and Lily got angry. She pushed Max away, and he fell on the floor. He hit his head on the table, and it hurt a lot. He started to cry.
+

+
+"Lily pushed me and I hit my head!" Max said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mommy, I didn't mean to!" Lily said.
+
+Mommy was worried. She took a cloth and wrapped it around Max's head. She called the ambulance on the phone.
+
+"Hello, I need an ambulance. My son has a cut on his head. Please hurry!" Mommy said.
+
+Soon, the ambulance came. It had a loud siren and flashing lights. Two people came out of the ambulance. They had white clothes and bags. They looked at Max's head and said he needed to go to the hospital.
+
+"Don't worry, we'll take good care of him," one of them said.
+
+Mommy hugged Max and told him to be brave. She told Lily to stay with Grandma, who lived next door. She went with Max in the ambulance.
+
+Lily felt sad and sorry. She wished she had shared the doll with Max. She hoped he would be okay. She gave the doll to Grandma and said she didn't want it anymore.
+
+"Maybe you can give it to Max when he comes back," Grandma said. "He might like that."
+
+Lily nodded. She said a prayer for Max and waited for Mommy to call. She learned a lesson that day. She learned to be kind and not persistent.
+Anna and Ben were bored. It was winter and very cold outside. They could not play in the park or ride their bikes. They looked at their mom, who was busy in the kitchen. She was cooking something that smelled good.

+
+"Sure, my loves. You can help me make some cookies for dessert. Do you like cookies?" Mom said.
+
+"Yes, we love cookies!" Ben said.
+
+Mom gave them some dough and a rolling pin. She showed them how to roll the dough and cut out shapes with cookie cutters. Anna and Ben had fun making stars, hearts, and circles. They put them on a baking tray and Mom put them in the oven.
+
+While they waited, Mom told them a story about a little boy who was ignorant. He did not listen to his mom or his teacher. He did not learn anything new. He did not know how to read or write or count. He did not have any friends. He was always unhappy and lonely.
+
+"That's a sad story, Mom. Why was he ignorant?" Anna asked.
+
+"Because he did not want to learn. He thought he knew everything. He was rude and selfish. He did not care about anyone else. He missed out on many wonderful things in life." Mom said.
+
+"That's silly. We want to learn. We like to read and write and count. We like to make friends. We like to be kind and helpful. We want to be happy and have fun." Ben said.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. "You are very smart and sweet, my loves. I am proud of you. Learning is a gift. It makes you grow and discover new things. It makes you happy and useful. It makes you a better person." Mom said.
+
+The oven beeped and Mom took out the cookies. They were golden and crispy. They smelled delicious. Mom let them cool a bit and then gave Anna and Ben each a cookie. They tasted yummy.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. You are the best cook. And the best storyteller. And the best mom." Anna and Ben said.
+
+"You are very welcome, my loves. You are the best children. And the best helpers. And the best friends." Mom said.
+
+They ate their cookies and cuddled on the couch. They felt warm and cozy. They were not bored anymore. They were happy.
+Sam and Mia like to play in the park. They slide, swing, and run. One day, they see a big fountain. It has water that goes up and down. Sam and Mia want to touch the water.
+
+They run to the fountain. They put their hands in the water. It is cold and wet. They laugh and splash. They get their clothes wet. They do not care.
+
+Then, Sam has an idea. He sees a towel on a bench. It is red and soft. He runs to the bench and takes the towel. He runs back to the fountain. He says to Mia, "Watch this!"
+
+He throws the towel in the air. He pushes it with his hand. The towel flies over the water. It lands on the top of the fountain. The water pushes the towel up and down. It looks like a flag.
+
+Mia claps and cheers. She says, "That is cool!" Sam smiles and says, "I know!" They watch the towel dance on the water.
+
+But then, they hear a loud voice. It is a man. He is angry. He says, "Hey, that is my towel! Give it back!" He runs to the fountain. He tries to get the towel. But the water is too strong. He gets wet and cold. He shouts and grumbles.
+
+Sam and Mia are scared. They run away from the fountain. They run to their mom. They tell her what happened. She is not happy. She says, "That was not nice. You should not take things that are not yours. You should say sorry to the man."
+
+Sam and Mia feel bad. They nod and say, "Okay." They go back to the fountain. They see the man. He is still wet and angry. He has the towel in his hand. He glares at them.
+
+Sam and Mia say, "We are sorry. We did not mean to take your towel. We just wanted to play. Please forgive us."
+
+The man looks at them. He sees their wet clothes and sad faces. He sighs and says, "It's okay. I forgive you. But next time, ask before you use something that is not yours. And be careful with the water. It can be dangerous."
+
+Sam and Mia say, "Thank you. We will. And we will be careful." They smile and say, "Bye." They go back to their mom. She hugs them and says, "I'm proud of you. You did the right thing. Now, let's go home and change your clothes. You are wet and cold."
+
+Sam and Mia nod and say, "Okay." They hold their mom's hand. They leave the park. They still like the fountain. But they do not want to play with the towel again. They learned their lesson.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were farmers and grow things. They had a small patch of dirt where they planted some seeds. They watered them every day and waited for them to grow.
+
+One day, they heard a ring-ring sound from the house. It was the telephone. They ran inside to answer it. It was their grandma. She was elderly and lived far away. They loved to talk to her.
+
+"Hello, Tim and Lily," she said. "How are you?"
+
+"We are good, grandma," they said. "We are playing in the garden. We are growing things."
+
+"That's wonderful," she said. "What are you growing?"
+
+"We don't know yet," they said. "They are still very small. But we hope they will be big and pretty and yummy."
+
+"I'm sure they will be," she said. "I'm very proud of you. You are good farmers."
+
+"Thank you, grandma," they said. "We miss you. When will you come to visit us?"
+
+"Soon, my dears," she said. "I miss you too. I can't wait to see you and your garden. But now I have to go. I love you very much."
+
+"We love you too, grandma," they said. "Bye-bye."
+
+They hung up the telephone and ran back to the garden. They looked at their seeds and smiled. They hoped grandma would like them when they grew. They watered them some more and sang to them. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to swim in the pool. They had fun splashing and kicking the water. One day, they saw a weird thing in the pool. It was big and green and had a long tail.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a toy," Ben said.
+
+They swam closer to the weird thing. But it was not a toy. It was a crocodile! It opened its mouth and showed its sharp teeth.
+
+"Help!" Lily and Ben screamed.
+
+They swam away as fast as they could. They reached the edge of the pool and climbed out. They ran to the lifeguard and told him about the crocodile.
+
+The lifeguard blew his whistle and told everyone to get out of the pool. He called the animal control to catch the crocodile. He also gave Lily and Ben a hug and a candy.
+
+Lily and Ben were very scared. They cried and hugged each other. They were glad they were safe and had each other. They decided they did not like weird things in the pool. They liked toys and floats and bubbles. They hoped the crocodile would find a new home where it could swim and be happy.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the garden. They see a big scale. They want to know how much they weigh.
+
+"Let's weigh ourselves!" Lily says. She climbs on the scale. The needle moves. "I weigh five!" she says.
+
+"Wow, you are big!" Ben says. He climbs on the scale too. The needle moves more. "I weigh six!" he says.
+
+They are happy. They jump off the scale. They see a daisy. It is white and yellow. It is pretty.
+
+"Let's weigh the daisy!" Ben says. He picks the daisy. He puts it on the scale. The needle does not move. "The daisy is too light!" he says.
+
+"Let's make it heavier!" Lily says. She runs to the mud. She makes a ball of mud. She puts the mud on the daisy. The daisy is messy.
+
+They put the messy daisy on the scale. The needle moves a little. "The daisy weighs one!" they say.
+
+They laugh. They make more mud balls. They throw them at each other. They are messy too. They have fun.
+Lily and Tom are at the park with their mom. They see a huge dog with a long tail. The dog is brown and fluffy. Lily and Tom like dogs. They want to pet the dog.
+
+"Mom, can we pet the dog?" Lily asks.
+
+"Sure, but you have to ask the owner first. And be gentle and calm," mom says.
+
+Lily and Tom walk to the dog and the owner. The owner is a nice lady. She smiles at them.
+
+"Hello, kids. Do you want to say hi to my dog? His name is Max," the lady says.
+
+"Yes, please. He is so huge and cute," Tom says.
+
+"Okay, but don't pull his tail or ears. He doesn't like that. You can stroke his fur and scratch his chin. He likes that," the lady says.
+
+Lily and Tom pet the dog. Max is very friendly. He licks their faces and wags his tail. Lily and Tom giggle.
+
+"Look, mom. He is waving his tail at us. He is happy," Lily says.
+
+"Yes, he is. He likes you. You are very nice to him," mom says.
+
+Lily and Tom hug the dog. They say thank you to the lady. They wave goodbye to Max. Max waves his tail back. They have a fun day at the park.
+Lily and Ben like to play with their toys. They have a lot of toys, but their favorite is the record player. The record player can make music and sounds. Lily and Ben have many records to choose from.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben decide to make their own record. They find a blank record and a microphone. They take turns to talk and sing into the microphone. They are very excited to hear their voices on the record.
+
+They put the record on the record player and press the play button. They listen carefully, but they hear nothing. They try again, but still nothing. They are confused and sad. What is wrong with their record?
+
+They ask their mom for help. Mom looks at the record and the microphone. She smiles and says, "I know what happened. You were so clumsy, you forgot to plug in the microphone. The microphone needs to be plugged in to record your voices. Let's try again, okay?"
+
+Lily and Ben feel silly, but they are happy. They plug in the microphone and make their record again. This time, they hear their voices on the record. They laugh and dance to their music. They are very proud of their record. They thank their mom and hug her. They have a lot of fun with their record player.
+Tom and Ben were brothers. They liked to play with cars and trucks. One day, they found a big toy police car in the park. It had lights and sounds and a siren. They wanted to take it home.
+
+"Look, Ben, a police car! Let's play with it!" Tom said.
+
+"OK, Tom, but we have to be careful. Maybe someone left it here and will come back for it," Ben said.
+
+They pushed the police car around the park, making noises and pretending to chase bad guys. They had a lot of fun. They did not see the man who was watching them from a bench. He had a mean face and a bag.
+
+The man waited until Tom and Ben were far from the park gate. Then he ran to them and grabbed the police car. He threw it in his bag and ran away.
+
+"Hey, that's our police car! Give it back!" Tom shouted.
+
+"Stop, thief! Stop!" Ben cried.
+
+But the man was too fast. He got to his car and drove away. Tom and Ben tried to follow him, but they could not catch him. They were very sad and angry. They had lost their police car.
+
+They ran back to the park gate, hoping to find someone who could help them. But they only saw a sign that said: "No toys allowed in the park. All toys will be taken away by the park staff. This is a harsh rule, but it is for your safety."
+
+Tom and Ben realized that the man was not a thief. He was a park worker. He had taken their police car because it was not allowed in the park. They had broken the rule and lost their toy. They wished they had listened to Ben and been careful. They learned a hard lesson that day. They never went back to the park again.
+Lily and Ben were twins. They liked to play with water. One day, they found a big tub in the yard. It was full of water and bubbles. They wanted to soak in it.
+
+"Let's go in the tub!" Lily said.
+
+"OK!" Ben said.
+
+They took off their clothes and jumped in the tub. The water was warm and soft. They splashed and laughed. They had fun.
+
+But they did not see Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad had put the tub there. It was a gift for them. They wanted to surprise them. They had bought light toys that floated and glowed in the water. They had hidden them under the bubbles.
+
+Mom and Dad came out of the house. They saw Lily and Ben in the tub. They were angry.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom shouted.
+
+"You ruined our gift!" Dad yelled.
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They did not know what they did wrong. They saw the light toys in the water. They looked pretty. But they were broken. The water had soaked them. They did not work anymore.
+
+They started to cry. They said they were sorry. But Mom and Dad did not listen. They took them out of the tub. They dried them with towels. They sent them to their room. They said they were naughty. They said they could not play with water anymore.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sad. They hugged each other. They wished they had not gone in the tub. They wished they had waited for Mom and Dad. They wished they had seen their gift. They wished they had a happy ending.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They saw a big mixer on the table. It had many buttons and wires. Lily wanted to touch it.
+
+"Can we play with the mixer?" she asked Tom.
+
+"No, we can't. Mom said it is delicate. It can break easily. We should not touch it," Tom said.
+
+But Lily did not listen. She climbed on a chair and reached for the mixer. She pushed a button. The mixer made a loud noise. It started to spin and shake.
+
+"Stop it, Lily! You are making a mess!" Tom shouted.
+
+But Lily could not stop it. The mixer was too strong. It knocked over a bowl of flour. It splashed milk and eggs everywhere. It pulled a wire from the wall. It made a spark and a smoke.
+
+"Help! Help!" Lily and Tom cried.
+
+Mom heard the noise and ran to the kitchen. She saw the mixer and the mess. She was very angry and scared.
+
+"What did you do?" she yelled at Lily and Tom. "You could have hurt yourself or started a fire! The mixer is ruined! Go to your room now! You are in big trouble!"
+
+Lily and Tom felt very sorry and sad. They wished they had listened to Tom and not touched the mixer. They learned a hard lesson. They had to clean the kitchen and say sorry to Mom. They could not play with the mixer ever again.
+One day, Sam and Mia went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, like monkeys, lions, and giraffes. But Sam's favorite animal was the rhinoceros. He liked how big and strong it was, and how it had a horn on its nose.
+
+"Mom, can I hold the rhinoceros?" Sam asked.
+
+"No, Sam, you can't hold the rhinoceros. It is too big and heavy for you. And it might hurt you with its horn. You can only look at it from far away," mom said.
+
+"But I want to hold it, mom. Please, please, please," Sam begged.
+
+"Sorry, Sam, but it is not possible. Why don't you hold this instead?" mom said, and gave him a toy rhinoceros. It was orange and soft, and had a small horn.
