But it was very hot outside, so Timmy started to feel uncomfortable in his sweater. He wanted to remove it, but he didn't know how. + +Suddenly, Timmy's friends saw that he was feeling hot and uncomfortable. They helped him remove his sweater. Timmy felt much better without his sweater on. They continued playing and having fun, but then they heard a very noisy sound. It was coming from a nearby construction site. The noise was so loud that it hurt their ears. They decided to go play somewhere else where it was quieter. From that day on, Timmy knew that he could always remove his sweater if he felt too hot. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. One day, Lily and her mom went to the airport to pick up her grandma. Lily loved going to the airport because she liked to watch the planes fly in the sky. + +While waiting for grandma, Lily noticed that the airport was not very tidy. She asked her mom why it was messy. Her mom explained that many people come and go from the airport, so it can be hard to keep it clean. + +Lily decided that she wanted to help. She picked up some trash and put it in the bin. Her mom was proud of her and said, "Lily, you performed a kind act by keeping the airport tidy. We should always try to help make things better, even if it's just a little bit." And that's exactly what Lily did - she helped make the airport a little bit tidier. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. One day, she went to the mailbox and received a letter. She was very happy because she had never received a letter before. + +Lily ran inside to show her mom the letter. Her mom was in the bathroom using the toilet. Lily waited outside and asked, "Mommy, can I come in?" Her mom said yes and Lily showed her the letter. + +Her mom was so excited for her and said, "Wow, you're going to be famous one day!" Lily didn't know what famous meant, so her mom explained that it meant a lot of people would know her name. + +Lily was very happy and couldn't wait to tell her friends about the letter. From that day on, she always checked the mailbox hoping to receive more letters. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to play outside with her friends. One day, she saw a small onion in her garden. She picked it up and showed it to her friends. "Look at this onion!" she said. + +Her friend, Timmy, said, "What can we do with it?" + +Lily replied, "I don't know. Maybe we can cook it and eat it." + +Timmy said, "But it's so small. It won't be enough for all of us." + +Lily thought for a moment and then said, "I know! We can plant it and it will become a big onion. Then we can all share it!" + +Her friends thought it was a great idea and they all helped her plant the onion. They watered it every day and watched it grow taller and taller. Eventually, it became a high onion and they were all able to share it and make a delicious meal together. +Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to play with his toys and his favorite toy was a big red truck. One day, Timmy's mom said, "Timmy, we need to clean your room. Let's do it on Wednesday." + +Timmy was excited to clean his room because he wanted to find his missing toy car. But on Wednesday, it started to rain and Timmy's mom said, "We have to delay cleaning your room until tomorrow." + +Timmy was sad because he really wanted to find his toy car. But then he heard a voice coming from under his bed. It was his toy car! "I was hiding under here the whole time," said the toy car. Timmy was so happy to find his toy and he hugged it tight. + +From that day on, Timmy always made sure to clean his room so he wouldn't lose any of his toys again. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to imagine she was a princess in a colorful castle. One day, Lily's mom gave her a postcard with a picture of a beautiful beach. Lily was so happy and imagined she was playing in the sand and swimming in the ocean. + +But one day, Lily accidentally dropped the postcard and it flew out the window. She was so sad because she lost her special postcard. She searched everywhere, but she couldn't find it. Lily felt like crying, but then she imagined she was at the beach again, playing in the sand and swimming in the ocean. + +But then, Lily heard a loud noise outside. She looked out the window and saw that it was raining very hard. She felt sad again because she knew her postcard was getting wet and ruined. When the rain stopped, Lily went outside to find her postcard. But it was too late, the postcard was ruined and Lily couldn't see the beautiful beach anymore. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to wear pretty dresses and colorful shoes. One day, she found a band on the ground. It was a harmless band, just made of rubber. She put it on her wrist and it fit perfectly. + +Lily went to school with her new band on her wrist. Her friends noticed it and asked where she got it. Lily told them she found it on the ground. Her friends thought it was cool and wanted to wear one too. + +The next day, Lily brought some bands for her friends. They all wore them and felt happy. They knew the bands were harmless and wouldn't hurt them. From that day on, Lily and her friends wore their bands every day as a sign of their friendship. +Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to play with his toys, but sometimes he had nightmares. One night, Timmy woke up crying because he had a nightmare about a monster. His mom came to his room and asked him what was wrong. + +Timmy said, "Mommy, I had a bad dream. A monster came and tried to destroy all my toys." + +Mommy hugged Timmy and said, "Don't worry, Timmy. You are safe now. The monster is not real, it was just a bad dream." + +Timmy felt better and went back to sleep. The next day, Timmy decided to be brave and face his nightmare. He took all his toys and put them in a safe place. Timmy knew that his toys were safe now and the monster could never destroy them. From that day on, Timmy never had a nightmare again. +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play at the beach. They made sand castles, dug holes, and collected shells. One day, they saw a big boat on the sea. It was shiny and white, and it had a flag on it. + +"Wow, look at that boat!" Lily said. "I want to go on it!" + +"Me too!" Ben said. "Let's ask Mommy if we can go." + +They ran to their mom, who was sitting on a towel. "Mommy, Mommy, can we go on the boat?" they asked. + +Mommy shook her head. "No, sweeties, you can't go on the boat. It's not for us. It's for people who work on the sea. They have to do important things, like catch fish, or help other boats, or keep the sea clean." + +Lily and Ben were upset. They wanted to go on the boat. They thought it would be fun and exciting. They didn't understand why they couldn't go. They pouted and stomped their feet. + +"Mommy, that's not fair!" Lily said. "We want to go on the boat!" + +"Mommy, please, please, please!" Ben said. "We'll be good, we promise!" + +Mommy sighed. She knew they were curious and adventurous, but she also knew they had to be safe and respectful. She tried to explain to them why they couldn't go on the boat, but they didn't listen. They kept whining and begging. + +Mommy had an idea. She pointed to the sky. "Look, kids, do you see that cloud?" she said. "It looks like a boat, doesn't it?" + +Lily and Ben looked up. They saw a big, fluffy cloud that looked like a boat. It had a sail, a mast, and a flag. It was moving slowly across the blue sky. + +"It does look like a boat!" Lily said. + +"It's a cloud boat!" Ben said. + +Mommy smiled. "Why don't you pretend that you're on the cloud boat?" she said. "You can imagine that you're sailing on the sea, and having all kinds of adventures. You can make up your own stories, and use your own voices. You can even use your shells as treasure, or your sand castles as islands. It'll be more fun than going on the real boat, trust me." + +Lily and Ben thought about it. They liked to pretend and imagine. They liked to make up stories and use their own voices. They liked to use their shells and sand castles. They decided to give it a try. + +They lay down on the sand, and looked at the cloud boat. They started to pretend that they were on it. They made up names for themselves, and for the cloud boat. They said things like, "Ahoy, matey!" and "Land ho!" and "Shiver me timbers!" They laughed and giggled and had a lot of fun. + +Mommy watched them with a smile. She was glad they were happy and creative. She hoped they learned that sometimes, you can't always get what you want, but you can always use your imagination to make the best of what you have. She hoped they learned that the sea was a wonderful place, but also a dangerous place, and that they had to respect it and the people who worked on it. She hoped they learned that the sky was a magical place, but also a real place, and that they had to admire it and the clouds that shaped it. She hoped they learned that the beach was a fun place, but also a precious place, and that they had to enjoy it and take care of it. She hoped they learned that the boat was a dream, but also a reality, and that they had to love it and let it go. +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to watch films on the big TV. But today, they have to pack. They are going to visit Grandma and Grandpa. They have to put their clothes and toys in a big bag. + +Lily wants to pack her thick book. She likes to look at the pictures and the words. Ben wants to pack his thick car. He likes to make it go fast and loud. But the bag is too small. They cannot fit both the book and the car. + +They start to fight. Lily pulls the car. Ben pulls the book. They shout and cry. Mom hears them and comes to see. She is not happy. She tells them to stop fighting and share. She says they can take turns with the book and the car. Or they can choose something else to pack. + +Lily and Ben think for a bit. They do not want to make Mom sad. They do not want to fight. They want to have fun at Grandma and Grandpa's. They decide to pack something else. They pack their film. It is their favorite film. It has a princess and a dragon and a funny dog. They can watch it with Grandma and Grandpa. They hug and say sorry. They are happy. They finish packing and get ready to go. +Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and slide and swing. They saw a big hill with a lot of rocks. They wanted to climb it and see what was on the other side. + +"Let's go, Lila!" Ben said. "Maybe we can find something cool!" + +"OK, Ben!" Lila said. "But be careful. The rocks look sharp." + +They ran to the hill and started to climb. They used their hands and feet to find good places to hold on. They went higher and higher. They could see the park and the trees and the sky. They felt happy and brave. + +But then, Ben slipped. He lost his grip and fell. He hit a sharp rock on the way down. He cried out in pain. Lila saw him and was scared. She tried to go down to help him, but she was too high. She could not find a safe way. + +"Ben, Ben, are you OK?" Lila shouted. + +"No, Lila, it hurts!" Ben shouted back. "I'm bleeding! Help me, Lila!" + +Lila did not know what to do. She looked around for someone to help them, but no one was there. They were too far from the park. They were alone on the hill. Lila felt sad and sorry. She wished they had not climbed the hill. She wished they had stayed in the park. She wished they had listened to their mom, who had told them not to go too far. But it was too late. They had made a bad choice. And now they were in trouble. +Anna liked to read books. She had many books in her room. Some books had pictures and some books had only words. Anna liked the books with only words best. They were called novels. Anna was gifted. She could read novels very well. + +One day, Anna found a new novel in her room. It was a gift from her mom. Anna was happy. She opened the novel and started to read. The novel was about a girl who went on an adventure. Anna wanted to know what happened next. + +But then, Anna heard a noise. It was her brother, Ben. Ben was playing with his cars. He made loud sounds with his mouth. Vroom, vroom, crash, boom. Anna did not like the noise. It made her hard to read. She said to Ben, "Stop, Ben, stop. You are too loud. I am reading a novel. It is very good. Please be quiet." + +But Ben did not stop. He kept playing with his cars. He said to Anna, "No, Anna, no. You are too boring. I am playing with my cars. It is very fun. Please play with me." + +Anna and Ben started to argue. They both wanted to do their own thing. They did not listen to each other. They made more noise. They were not happy. +Lily and Ben are playing at the beach. They see a big boat in the water. The boat has a blue anchor. Lily wants to see the anchor up close. + +"Can we go to the boat, Ben?" Lily asks. + +"No, Lily. The boat is too far. And we have to stay near Mom and Dad," Ben says. + +Lily is sad. She likes the blue anchor. She thinks it is pretty and shiny. She has an idea. + +"Look, Ben. I found a blue towel. It looks like the anchor. Let's play with it," Lily says. + +She wraps the towel around her waist. She pretends it is the anchor. She runs to the water. She lies down on the sand. She says, "I am the boat. The blue towel is my anchor. I am holding it tight." + +Ben laughs. He thinks Lily is funny. He joins her. He wraps another towel around his waist. He lies down next to Lily. He says, "I am another boat. I have a green anchor. We are friends." + +They play together. They make boat noises. They splash the water. They have fun. Mom and Dad watch them. They smile. They are happy. +Sara and Lily were sisters who liked to play dress-up. They had a big box of jewelry that their mom gave them. They had necklaces, bracelets, rings, and earrings. They liked to wear them and pretend they were princesses or fairies. + +One day, they decided to play outside in the garden. They put on their favorite jewelry and ran to the grass. They saw some flowers and butterflies. They picked some flowers and made crowns for their heads. They chased the butterflies and laughed. + +"Look, Lily, a wide butterfly!" Sara said, pointing to a blue and yellow one. "It is so pretty!" + +"Let's catch it, Sara!" Lily said, running after it. She reached out her hand to touch it, but it flew away. She followed it to the fence, where it landed on a rose. + +Lily was about to grab it, when she heard a voice. "Hey, that's my butterfly!" It was Tom, the boy who lived next door. He was holding a net and a jar. He looked angry. + +"No, it's not! It's a free butterfly!" Lily said, standing in front of the rose. "You can't catch it!" + +"Yes, I can! It's my hobby! I collect butterflies!" Tom said, pushing Lily aside. He swung his net at the butterfly, but missed. The butterfly flew away again. + +Tom and Lily ran after it, leaving Sara behind. Sara saw something shiny on the ground. It was Lily's bracelet. It must have fallen off when Tom pushed her. Sara picked it up and put it in her pocket. She thought Lily would be sad if she lost it. + +Sara waited for Lily and Tom to return. She hoped they would not fight. She hoped the butterfly would be safe. She hoped Lily would like her bracelet. She liked to play dress-up, but she liked her sister more. +Tom and Lily were playing with their cars on the floor. Tom had a red car and Lily had a blue car. They liked to make the cars go fast and make noises. + +But Tom wanted to win. He wanted to have the best car. He did not like Lily's blue car. He thought it was ugly. He wanted to make Lily sad. + +So he pushed his red car hard. He pushed it into Lily's blue car. He pushed it so hard that Lily's blue car flew away and hit the wall. Lily's blue car broke. Lily cried. + +Tom laughed. He thought he had victory. He thought he was clever. He did not care about Lily. + +But then Mom came. She saw what Tom did. She saw Lily's broken car and Lily's tears. She was angry. She took Tom's red car away. She said Tom was naughty. She said Tom had to say sorry to Lily and share his toys. + +Tom felt bad. He realized he was wrong. He did not have victory. He had trouble. He said sorry to Lily. He gave her his red car. He asked her to play with him. + +Lily smiled. She forgave Tom. She liked his red car. She said they could play together. She said they could have fun. + +Tom and Lily played with their cars on the floor. They made the cars go fast and make noises. They did not push or break. They shared and helped. They were happy. +Tim and Mia are playing in the park. They like to run and jump and slide. They see a big hill with grass and flowers. They want to go up the hill and roll down. + +"Come on, Mia, let's go up the hill!" Tim says. + +"OK, Tim, let's go!" Mia says. + +They hold hands and run up the hill. They are happy and excited. They reach the top and look around. They see the sky and the trees and the birds. They see a bottle on the ground. It is shiny and blue. + +"Look, Mia, a bottle!" Tim says. + +"Wow, a bottle! What is in it?" Mia says. + +They go to the bottle and pick it up. They shake it and hear a sound. It sounds like water. They open the bottle and smell it. It smells like juice. + +"Yummy, juice!" Tim says. + +"Can we drink it?" Mia says. + +They take turns to drink from the bottle. It is sweet and cold. They like it very much. They drink until the bottle is empty. + +"Ah, that was good!" Tim says. + +"Yes, it was!" Mia says. + +They put the bottle down and smile at each other. They are ready to roll down the hill. They lie on the grass and hold hands again. They close their eyes and roll down the hill. They feel the wind and the sun and the grass. They laugh and scream and have fun. + +They roll until they reach the bottom of the hill. They open their eyes and see a man. He is old and angry. He has a beard and a hat. He is holding a cane. He is the owner of the bottle. + +"Hey, you kids, what are you doing with my bottle?" he says. + +He is very loud, but Tim and Mia do not hear him. They are deaf. They do not know he is talking to them. They think he is just a stranger. They get up and run away. They do not want to talk to strangers. + +They run back to their parents. They tell them about the hill and the bottle and the juice. They do not tell them about the man. They do not know he is mad at them. They are happy and proud. They had a great adventure. +Ben and Lily were playing with their toy train on the floor. They liked to make the train go fast and slow, and make noises like "choo-choo" and "brake". They also liked to pretend that they were the train drivers and passengers. + +"Let me be the driver, Lily," Ben said. "I know how to make the train go faster." + +"No, I want to be the driver, Ben," Lily said. "You are too bossy. You always tell me what to do." + +They started to tug at the train, each wanting to hold it. The train fell on the floor and broke. A little cloud of steam came out of the engine. + +"Oh no, look what you did, Ben," Lily cried. "You broke the train. Now we can't play with it anymore." + +"It's not my fault, Lily," Ben said. "You broke it too. You were too stubborn. You never listen to me." + +They both felt sad and angry. They sat on the floor and looked at the broken train. They didn't want to talk to each other. + +Then they heard a knock on the door. It was their mom. + +"Hi, kids, what are you doing?" she asked. + +"We were playing with the train, but we broke it," Ben said. + +"We had a fight, and we don't want to play together anymore," Lily said. + +Mom looked at the train and the steam. She felt sorry for them. + +"I'm sorry, kids, that's too bad," she said. "But you know, sometimes things break, and sometimes we fight. That doesn't mean we don't love each other. Maybe you can say sorry to each other, and share the train. Maybe we can fix it later, or get a new one." + +Ben and Lily looked at each other. They felt a little bit sorry, and a little bit silly. + +"Sorry, Lily," Ben said. "You can be the driver sometimes." + +"Sorry, Ben," Lily said. "You can be the driver sometimes too." + +They hugged each other, and gave the train to mom. They decided to play with something else, and be nice to each other. + +Mom smiled and said, "That's good, kids. I'm proud of you. You know how to be good friends." +Ben and Lily were curious twins who liked to explore new places. One day, their mom and dad took them to a big zoo, where they could see many animals. They joined a tour with a nice lady who told them about the animals and their names. + +"Look, Ben and Lily, this is a lion. He is the king of the jungle. He has a big mane and a loud roar. Can you roar like a lion?" the lady asked. + +Ben and Lily tried to roar, but they sounded more like kittens. They giggled and clapped their hands. The lion looked at them and yawned. + +"Wow, he is so big and strong!" Ben said. + +"I want to touch his mane!" Lily said. + +"No, no, Lily, you can't touch the lion. He is behind a fence for your safety. He might bite you or scratch you. You have to stay with the tour and follow the rules," the lady said. + +Lily nodded, but she still wanted to see the lion up close. She saw a small hole in the fence, where she could peek through. She ran to the hole and put her eye to it. She saw the lion's face, very close to hers. She gasped and smiled. + +"Hello, lion!" she said. + +The lion heard her voice and turned his head. He saw her eye and sniffed. He was curious too. He opened his mouth and showed his teeth. He tried to grab her with his paw. + +Lily screamed and jumped back. She ran to her mom and dad, who hugged her and comforted her. + +"Are you okay, Lily? What happened?" they asked. + +"The lion tried to grab me! He was scary!" Lily said. + +The lady came over and checked on her. She was not hurt, but she was very scared. + +"I'm sorry, Lily. You should not have gone to the hole. The lion is not a friend. He is a wild animal. You have to be careful and listen to me. Do you understand?" the lady said. + +Lily nodded and said sorry. She learned her lesson. She did not want to see the lion anymore. She wanted to see the other animals, who were nicer and safer. She held her mom's hand and followed the tour. Ben held his dad's hand and followed too. They saw elephants, monkeys, giraffes, and more. They had fun and learned a lot. They were still curious, but they were also smart. +Lily was a little girl who liked to play with dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was a brown doll with long hair and a pink dress. She named her doll Rose and took her everywhere. + +One day, Lily went to the park with her mom and Rose. She saw another girl on the swings who had a yellow doll with curly hair and a blue dress. The girl's name was Anna and she was very friendly. + +"Hi, I'm Anna. What's your name?" she asked Lily. + +"Hi, I'm Lily. This is Rose," Lily said, holding up her doll. + +"Rose is very pretty. Can I see her?" Anna asked. + +Lily nodded and handed Rose to Anna. Anna smiled and looked at Rose's hair and dress. She liked Rose very much. + +"Can I lend you my doll? Her name is Daisy," Anna said, offering her yellow doll to Lily. + +Lily looked at Daisy and saw that she was also very pretty. She liked Daisy's curls and blue dress. She nodded and took Daisy from Anna. + +"Thank you. Daisy is very pretty too," Lily said. + +The two girls played with each other's dolls for a while. They pretended that Rose and Daisy were sisters who went on adventures. They had a lot of fun. + +"I wish we could be friends," Lily said to Anna. + +"I wish that too," Anna said to Lily. + +They hugged each other and exchanged dolls again. They decided to play together every time they came to the park. They were very happy. They had made a new friend and a new wish. +Tom and Sue were good friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, Tom had a new gift. It was a red car that could go very fast. He showed it to Sue and said, "Look at my gift. It is the best car ever. Do you want to try it?" + +Sue was happy. She said, "Yes, please. I want to try your car. It looks very fun." Tom gave her the car and said, "Be careful. Do not break it. It is my favorite gift." Sue nodded and said, "I will be careful. I am your dependable friend." + +Sue took the car and ran with it. She made it go fast on the grass, on the sand, and on the slide. She had a lot of fun. But then, she saw a big hole in the ground. She thought, "What is in the hole? Maybe there is something good. I want to see." She put the car in the hole and dug with her hands. She buried the car under the dirt and looked for something else. + +Tom saw what Sue did. He was very angry. He ran to the hole and said, "Sue, what are you doing? Where is my car? You buried my car!" He tried to dig the car out, but he could not find it. The car was gone. He cried and said, "Sue, you are a bad friend. You lost my gift. You are not dependable. I do not want to play with you anymore." + +Sue was sad. She said, "I am sorry, Tom. I did not mean to lose your car. I wanted to see what was in the hole. I thought I could find it again. Please do not be mad at me. Please be my friend." But Tom did not listen. He took his other toys and left. He did not look at Sue. Sue was alone. She had no car, no gift, and no friend. She cried too. She wished she had not buried the car. She wished she had been a dependable friend. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to help Mommy in the kitchen. Today, Mommy is making soup for lunch. She gives Anna and Ben a big spoon each. + +"Can you stir the soup for me?" Mommy asks. "Be careful, it is hot." + +Anna and Ben nod. They hold the spoons and dip them in the pot. They turn the spoons around and around. They see carrots, potatoes, and chicken in the soup. It smells yummy. + +"Can we taste it?" Anna asks. + +"Sure, but blow on it first," Mommy says. She ladles some soup into two small bowls. She puts them on the table. + +Anna and Ben sit on their chairs. They blow on the soup and take a sip. They smile. + +"Mmm, this is yummy!" Ben says. + +"I like it too!" Anna says. + +"Good job, helpers!" Mommy says. "You made the soup even yummier with your spoons." + +Anna and Ben giggle. They finish their soup and ask for more. They are happy and full. +Tom and Mia like to paint. They have many colors and brushes. They paint on paper, on walls, on rocks, on anything they see. They are happy when they paint. + +One day, they see a big white wall near their house. They think it is a good place to paint. They take their colors and brushes and run to the wall. They start to paint flowers, stars, animals, and their names. They laugh and talk. + +"Look, Mia, I paint a big sun!" Tom says. + +"Wow, Tom, it is very nice! I paint a rainbow!" Mia says. + +They do not see a man coming. He is very angry. He owns the wall. He does not like to see paint on his wall. He shouts at Tom and Mia. + +"Hey, you! Stop painting on my wall! This is my wall! You are bad kids! Go away!" He says. + +Tom and Mia are scared. They drop their colors and brushes. They run away from the man. They do not look where they are going. They cross the street. They do not see a car coming. The car is very fast. It hits Tom and Mia. They fall down. They do not get up. They are hurt. They are not happy. They do not paint anymore. The end. +Tom and Lily were playing in the yard. They had a big box of tools that they found in the garage. They liked to pretend they were fixing things with the tools. + +"Look, I have a hammer!" Tom said. He banged the hammer on a rock. "Bang, bang, bang!" + +"I want the hammer!" Lily said. She tried to grab the hammer from Tom. "Give it to me!" + +"No, it's mine!" Tom said. He pulled the hammer away from Lily. "You have a screwdriver. Use that!" + +"But I don't like the screwdriver!" Lily said. She threw the screwdriver on the ground. "It's stupid!" + +Tom and Lily started to fight over the hammer. They shouted and pushed each other. They did not see their mom coming. + +"Hey, hey, hey!" Mom said. She took the hammer from Tom and the screwdriver from Lily. "What are you doing? Why are you fighting?" + +"Mom, he won't give me the hammer!" Lily said. She pointed at Tom. "He's mean!" + +"Mom, she wants to take my hammer!" Tom said. He pointed at Lily. "She's greedy!" + +Mom shook her head. She was not happy. "You are both being silly. Tools are not toys. You can't demand things from each other. You have to share and be nice. Do you understand?" + +Tom and Lily nodded. They felt sorry. They said sorry to each other and to Mom. Mom gave them a hug and a kiss. She gave them back the tools. + +"Here, you can have the tools. But only if you play nicely. And be careful. Don't hurt yourself or break anything. OK?" + +Tom and Lily said OK. They smiled and thanked Mom. They decided to play together with the tools. They made a house out of the box and some sticks. They used the hammer and the screwdriver to fix it. They had fun. They were happy. +Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to look at the flowers and the bees. Lily saw a big yellow sunflower. She ran to it and touched its petals. + +"Wow, this flower is so pretty!" she said. + +Tom followed her and looked at the sunflower too. He wanted to pick it and give it to his mom. + +"I want this flower!" he said. He pulled at the stem. + +"Stop!" Lily said. "You can't take the flower. It belongs to the garden. The bees need it too." + +Tom did not listen. He pulled harder. The sunflower snapped and fell to the ground. + +Lily was angry. She cried and shouted at Tom. + +"You are mean! You broke the flower! You made the bees sad!" + +Tom was sorry. He did not mean to hurt the flower or the bees. He looked at Lily and the sunflower. + +"I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't know. I just wanted to make mom happy." + +He picked up the sunflower and tried to fix it. He put it back in the ground and patted the soil. + +"Please, flower, don't be sad. Please, bees, don't be mad. Please, Lily, don't be angry. Can we still be friends?" + +Lily stopped crying. She looked at Tom and the sunflower. She saw that Tom was sorry. She saw that the sunflower was still pretty. She saw that the bees were still buzzing. + +She smiled and hugged Tom. + +"It's okay, Tom. I forgive you. We can still be friends. But next time, ask before you take something. And let's find another way to make mom happy. Maybe we can draw her a picture of the sunflower instead." + +Tom nodded and hugged Lily back. + +"Okay, Lily. That's a good idea. I'm sorry again. I love you." + +They held hands and went to find some paper and crayons. They drew a big yellow sunflower with a smiley face and lots of bees. They wrote "We love you, mom" on the bottom. They ran to the house and gave the picture to their mom. + +Mom was happy. She hugged them and kissed them. + +"Thank you, my sweeties. This is the best gift ever. I love you too." + +She put the picture on the fridge and smiled. She looked out the window and saw the sunflower in the garden. It was still pretty. It seemed to reply with a smile. +Tom and Sue liked to play in the big house. The big house had many rooms and stairs and doors. Some rooms were dark and some were bright. Some doors were locked and some were open. Tom and Sue wanted to see what was behind every door. + +One day, they found a door that was very high. They had to climb a ladder to reach it. The door was white and had a sign that said "Do not enter". Tom and Sue did not know what the sign meant. They were curious and brave. They opened the door and went inside. + +The room behind the door was not like the other rooms. It was a chamber. It had many machines and wires and buttons. The machines made noises and lights. Tom and Sue thought it was fun. They touched the buttons and pulled the wires. They did not know what they were doing. + +The chamber was a secret place. It was where the big house made its power. The machines and wires and buttons controlled the power. Tom and Sue did not know that. They did not know that they were making the power go wrong. They did not know that they were making the big house dangerous. + +The chamber had a window. Through the window, Tom and Sue saw smoke and fire. The smoke and fire came from the big house. The big house was burning. Tom and Sue were scared. They wanted to get out of the chamber. They wanted to go back to their mom and dad. But the door was locked. The ladder was gone. They were trapped. They cried and screamed. But no one heard them. No one came to help them. The chamber was too hot. The machines and wires and buttons exploded. Tom and Sue did not play in the big house anymore. +Lila and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a small bird on the ground. The bird has a hurt wing. It cannot fly. + +Lila and Tom want to help the bird. They are not scared. The bird is harmless. It does not bite or scratch. It only makes soft noises. Lila and Tom are gentle. They pick up the bird and put it in a box. They put some grass and water in the box too. + +Lila and Tom take the box to their mom. Their mom is happy. She says they are kind and brave. She says they can stay with the bird until it gets better. She says she will call the vet. The vet is a person who helps animals. + +Lila and Tom are glad. They hope the bird will heal soon. They give the bird a name. They call it Fluffy. They talk to Fluffy and sing to Fluffy. Fluffy listens and chirps. Lila and Tom smile. They love Fluffy. They are good friends. +Lily loved to dance. She liked to spin and jump and twirl in her beautiful dress. She wanted to be a dancer when she grew up. She had a pair of shoes that helped her dance. They were pink and soft and had ribbons that she could wrap around her feet. + +One day, Lily saw a girl in the park who had no shoes. The girl was sad and cold. Her feet were dirty and hurt. Lily felt sorry for the girl. She wanted to help her. She thought of her shoes that helped her dance. She took them off and gave them to the girl. + +The girl was very happy. She thanked Lily and put on the shoes. She wrapped the ribbons around her feet. She felt warm and cozy. She tried to dance like Lily. She smiled and laughed. + +Lily was happy too. She saw that the girl was happy. She did not need her shoes to dance. She could dance with her bare feet. She danced with the girl. They became friends. + +The moral of the story is: Sharing is caring. You can make someone happy by giving them what you have. You can be happy without having everything you want. Dancing is fun. +Lily was an adventurous girl who liked to explore new things. She had a big box of toys that she played with every day. But sometimes, she got bored of the same toys and wanted to find something new. + +One day, she saw a feather on the ground outside her house. It was white and soft and shiny. She picked it up and felt it with her fingers. She wondered where it came from and what she could do with it. + +She ran inside and showed it to her mom. "Look, mom, I found a feather!" she said. + +"That's very nice, Lily," her mom said. "Do you know what kind of bird it belongs to?" + +Lily shook her head. She didn't know much about birds. She only knew that they had wings and could fly. + +"Maybe you can organize your toys and make a place for the feather," her mom suggested. "You can pretend it's a special treasure or a magic wand." + +Lily liked that idea. She went to her room and started to organize her toys. She put her dolls in one corner, her cars in another, and her books in a pile. She made a small nest out of a blanket and put the feather in the middle. She pretended it was a baby bird that she had to take care of. + +She was very happy with her new toy. She gave it a name and a voice and talked to it. She told it stories and sang to it. She even took it outside and showed it the sky and the trees and the flowers. + +She had a lot of fun with her feather. She felt like she had a new friend. She was an adventurous girl who liked to explore new things. And she learned that sometimes, the simplest things can be the most exciting. +Lila and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park. They run, jump, slide and swing. They are very lively. + +One day, they see a big puddle. It is shiny and wet. They want to splash in it. They take off their shoes and socks. They hold hands and run to the puddle. + +"Ready, steady, go!" they shout. They jump into the puddle. They make a big splash. They laugh and clap. They feel the water on their legs and feet. + +But the puddle is slippery. Lila and Ben lose their balance. They slip and fall. They land on their bottoms. They are wet and muddy. They are not hurt, but they are surprised. + +"Oh no!" they say. They look at each other. They see the mud on their faces and clothes. They see the water in their ears. They giggle. They are still lively. + +They get up and shake off the mud and water. They put on their shoes and socks. They run to their mom. She is sitting on a bench. She has a towel and a bag. + +"Mom, look!" they say. They show her their wet and muddy selves. They tell her about the puddle and the slip. + +Mom smiles. She is not angry. She is happy. She hugs them and wipes them with the towel. She gives them a change of clothes from the bag. + +"You two are very lively," she says. "But you are also very lucky. You did not get hurt. And you had fun. But next time, be careful with puddles. They can be slippery." + +Lila and Ben nod. They say sorry and thank you. They change their clothes. They are clean and dry. They are still lively. + +They hug mom and ask her to play with them. Mom agrees. They go to the slide. They slide down together. They laugh and cheer. They are very lively. +Sam and Mia were playing in the park. They saw a shiny thing on the ground. It was a penny. Sam picked it up and showed it to Mia. + +"Look, I found a penny!" Sam said. "It is shiny and round. Maybe we can buy something with it." + +Mia looked at the penny. She did not think it was very special. She had seen many pennies before. She shrugged her shoulders. She did not care about the penny. + +"Let's go on the slide," Mia said. "It is more fun than a penny. The slide is big and fast. We can go down and up and down and up." + +Sam did not want to go on the slide. He liked the penny. He thought it was rare and valuable. He wanted to keep it. He shook his head. He did not want to leave the penny. + +"No, I want to keep the penny," Sam said. "It is mine. I found it. Maybe it is lucky. Maybe it will make me happy." + +Mia did not understand why Sam liked the penny so much. She thought he was silly. She rolled her eyes. She did not want to argue with Sam. + +"Fine, keep your penny," Mia said. "But I am going on the slide. It is hot today. The slide is cool and fun. You can stay here with your penny. But you will be bored and hot." + +Mia ran to the slide. She climbed up the ladder and slid down the slide. She felt the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She laughed and smiled. She had a lot of fun. + +Sam stayed with his penny. He held it in his hand and looked at it. He tried to make it shine more. He rubbed it and polished it. He did not have any fun. He felt the heat on his skin and the sweat on his forehead. He was bored and hot. + +He looked at Mia. She was having a blast on the slide. She was sliding with other kids. She was making friends and having fun. He felt lonely and sad. + +He wished he had gone on the slide with Mia. He wished he had not cared about the penny. He realized the penny was not lucky or valuable. It was just a penny. He did not want it anymore. + +He threw the penny away. He ran to the slide. He called Mia's name. He wanted to play with her. He wanted to have fun. + +But Mia did not hear him. She was too busy sliding and laughing. She did not see him. She did not care about him. + +She shrugged her shoulders. She did not care about the penny. +Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a bright feather on the ground. It is red and yellow and blue. Ben picks it up and says, "Look, Mia, I have a feather. It is so pretty." + +Mia says, "Can I see it, Ben? I want to touch it." + +Ben says, "No, it is mine. You can't have it. Go find your own feather." + +Mia feels sad. She says, "That is not nice, Ben. We are friends. We should share." + +Ben says, "No, I don't want to share. This is my feather. Go away." + +Mia goes away. She cries. She looks for another feather, but she can't find any. She sits on a bench and wipes her eyes. + +Ben runs with his feather. He feels happy. He thinks he is the best. He says, "I have a feather. No one else has a feather. I am so fast and smart and cool." + +He runs and runs. He does not look where he is going. He does not see the car. The car is big and black and loud. The car speeds on the road. The car does not see Ben. + +The car hits Ben. Ben falls down. He drops his feather. He hurts a lot. He screams. He bleeds. He cries. + +Mia hears Ben. She runs to him. She sees him on the ground. She sees the car. She sees the feather. She feels scared. She says, "Ben, Ben, are you okay? I am sorry. I am here." + +Ben says, "Mia, Mia, help me. I am sorry. I was mean. I should have shared. I was wrong." + +Mia says, "It's okay, Ben. I forgive you. Don't worry. I will get help. You will be okay." + +She runs to get help. She hopes Ben will be okay. She thinks about the feather. She thinks it is not worth it. She thinks it is better to be kind and share. She thinks that is the moral of the story. +Sara and Ben are playing with their blocks in the hall. They like to build towers and bridges and houses. They also like to number their blocks with stickers. Sara has stickers from one to ten, and Ben has stickers from eleven to twenty. + +"Look, I made a big tower with my blocks!" Sara says. "I number them from one to ten. One is at the bottom and ten is at the top. Do you like it?" + +"Yes, it is very nice," Ben says. "But I can make a bigger tower with my blocks. I number them from eleven to twenty. Eleven is at the bottom and twenty is at the top. See, my tower is taller than yours!" + +Sara and Ben start to argue about whose tower is better. They do not see that their dog, Spot, is coming to the hall. Spot is curious and wants to play with the blocks too. He runs to the towers and jumps on them. The blocks fall down and the stickers fly everywhere. + +"Oh no, Spot!" Sara and Ben cry. "You broke our towers! You made a big mess!" + +Spot wags his tail and licks their faces. He thinks they are happy to see him. Sara and Ben are not happy. They are sad and angry. They love Spot, but they also love their blocks. + +"Spot, you are a bad dog!" Sara says. "You ruined our important game!" + +"Spot, you are a silly dog!" Ben says. "You mixed up our numbers!" + +Sara and Ben start to pick up their blocks and stickers. They try to sort them by their numbers. They realize that they have to work together to do it. They also realize that they were not nice to each other before. They say sorry to each other and hug. + +"Maybe we can make a new game with our blocks and numbers," Sara says. "We can share them and help each other." + +"That sounds like a good idea," Ben says. "We can also play with Spot. He did not mean to be bad or silly. He just wanted to have fun." + +Sara and Ben smile and call Spot. They give him a treat and a toy. They decide to make a new game with their blocks and numbers and Spot. They have fun in the hall. They are happy. +Jenny loved to imagine. She imagined she was a princess, a pirate, a doctor, or a fairy. She imagined she had a big castle, a ship, a hospital, or a magic wand. She imagined all kinds of things when she played with her toys or drew pictures. + +But on Wednesday, she had to go to school. She did not like school very much. She had to sit still, listen to the teacher, and do boring work. She could not imagine anything fun. She wished she could stay home and play. + +At school, she saw a big box in the corner of the classroom. The teacher said it was a surprise for later. Jenny wondered what was in the box. She imagined it was a big cake, a new toy, or a cute puppy. She wanted to see it very badly. + +When the teacher was busy, Jenny sneaked to the box. She lifted the lid and peeked inside. She saw something shiny and colorful. She reached out her hand and touched it. It felt soft and smooth. She pulled it out of the box. + +It was a scarf. A very long scarf. A very long scarf with many colors. Jenny smiled. She imagined she could wear it and pretend to be a rainbow, a snake, or a superhero. She wrapped it around her neck and ran around the room. + +"Jenny, what are you doing?" the teacher shouted. "That's not yours! That's the surprise for our art project! You are very naughty!" + +Jenny stopped. She felt bad. She did not mean to be naughty. She just wanted to imagine. She gave the scarf back to the teacher and said sorry. The teacher was angry, but she forgave Jenny. She told Jenny to sit down and wait for the art project. + +Jenny sat down. She felt sad. She wished she had not taken the scarf. She wished she had not spoiled the surprise. She wished she could imagine something happy. She looked at the scarf. It was still shiny and colorful. She imagined it was a hug from her mom. She felt a little better. +Tim and Kim are twins. They like to play in the park. They see a big slide. They want to go on the slide. + +"Let's go on the slide!" Tim says. + +"OK!" Kim says. + +They run to the slide. They see a number on the slide. It is a four. + +"What is that?" Kim asks. + +"That is a number. It is a four. It means the slide is deep." Tim says. + +"Deep? What is deep?" Kim asks. + +"Deep means far from the top to the bottom. Like a pool or a hole." Tim says. + +"Is deep fun?" Kim asks. + +"Yes, deep is fun. You go fast and feel the wind." Tim says. + +"OK, let's try it!" Kim says. + +They climb to the top of the slide. They sit on the slide. They hold hands. + +"Ready?" Tim asks. + +"Ready!" Kim says. + +They slide down the slide. They go fast and feel the wind. They laugh and scream. They reach the bottom of the slide. They are happy. + +"That was fun!" Tim says. + +"Yes, that was fun!" Kim says. + +They hug each other. They want to go on the slide again. They run to the slide. They see another number on the slide. It is a five. + +"What is that?" Kim asks. + +"That is a number. It is a five. It means the slide is deeper." Tim says. + +"Deeper? What is deeper?" Kim asks. + +"Deeper means more far from the top to the bottom. Like a lake or a well." Tim says. + +"Is deeper fun?" Kim asks. + +"I don't know. Let's find out!" Tim says. + +They climb to the top of the slide. They sit on the slide. They hold hands. + +"Ready?" Tim asks. + +"Ready!" Kim says. + +They slide down the slide. They go faster and feel more wind. They laugh and scream louder. They reach the bottom of the slide. They are happier. + +"That was more fun!" Tim says. + +"Yes, that was more fun!" Kim says. + +They hug each other. They want to go on the slide again and again. They love the slide. They love the numbers. They love the deep and the deeper.

She put on her shoes and coat and followed her mommy. She did not ask any questions. She was obedient and quiet. + +When they got to the car, Anna saw a big box in the back seat. It had a bow and a card on it. Anna's mommy smiled and said, "This is for you, Anna. It's a present from your grandma and grandpa. They wanted to show you how much they love you." + +Anna's eyes widened and she clapped her hands. She thanked her mommy and hugged her. Then she opened the box carefully.

They had a lot of fun together. +Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers. They found a big jar under a bush. It was empty and clean. + +"Let's catch some bugs in the jar!" said Ben. + +"OK, but we have to be calm and quiet," said Lily. + +They looked around and saw a butterfly, a ladybug, and a snail. They tried to catch them, but they were too fast or too slow. They only caught a fly and a spider. + +"Look, they are fighting!" said Ben, holding the jar. + +"Stop, stop, they are scared!" said Lily, taking the jar. "We have to let them go. They want to be free." + +She opened the jar and the fly and the spider flew and crawled away. Ben felt sorry for them. + +"Sorry, bugs," he said. "We didn't mean to hurt you." + +Lily smiled and gave him a hug. + +"It's OK, Ben. You are a good boy. You are my friend." + +She kissed him on the cheek. He blushed and kissed her back. + +They put the jar back under the bush and went to play some more. They were happy and calm. +Tom was a very intelligent boy. He liked to learn new things and ask questions. One day, he went to visit his aunt, who worked at a museum. She showed him many old and interesting things, like paintings, statues, and coins. + +"Can I chew this?" Tom asked, holding a shiny metal piece in his hand. + +"No, Tom, that is not food. That is a very old coin from a faraway land. It is very rare and valuable. You have to be careful with it," his aunt said. + +"Sorry, auntie. I was just curious. What is this place?" Tom asked, looking around the big room with many doors. + +"This is a chamber, Tom. A chamber is a room that has a special purpose. This chamber is for storing and displaying the coins and other things we find from the past. Do you want to see another chamber?" his aunt asked. + +"Yes, please. I want to see more things," Tom said. + +His aunt took him to another chamber, where there were many bones and fossils of animals that lived a long time ago. Tom saw a big skeleton of a dinosaur, with sharp teeth and claws. + +"Wow, what is that?" Tom asked. + +"That is a T-rex, Tom. A T-rex was a very big and strong animal that liked to chew meat. It was also very fast and fierce. But it was not very intelligent. It had a very small brain," his aunt said. + +"I don't want to meet a T-rex. It would chew me up," Tom said. + +"Don't worry, Tom. T-rex is extinct. That means it does not exist anymore. It died out millions of years ago. You are safe here," his aunt said. + +"Phew, that's good. You are very smart, auntie. You know a lot of things," Tom said. + +"Thank you, Tom. You are very smart too. You ask good questions and you learn fast. I'm proud of you," his aunt said. + +They hugged and smiled. Then they went to see more chambers and more things. Tom had a lot of fun and learned a lot that day. He loved his aunt and the museum. +Sara and Tom are playing in the kitchen. They have a small mop and a bucket of water. They want to help Mom clean the floor. + +"Look, Mom, we are mopping!" Sara says. She dips the mop in the water and swings it around. + +"Be careful, Sara, you are making a mess!" Mom says. She sees water splashing everywhere. "You need to squeeze the mop before you use it." + +Tom tries to squeeze the mop, but it is too big for his hands. He drops it on the floor. The mop makes a loud noise. + +"Oops, sorry, Mom!" Tom says. He picks up the mop and hugs it. "I like the mop. It is soft and wet. Can I keep it?" + +Mom smiles and shakes her head. "No, Tom, you can't keep the mop. It is not a toy. It is for cleaning. And you need to share it with Sara." + +"But I want to keep it!" Tom says. He holds the mop tighter. + +Sara gets angry. She wants to play with the mop too. She pulls the mop from Tom. "No, it is my turn! Give it to me!" + +Tom and Sara start to fight over the mop. They tug and shout. The mop gets ripped in half. + +Mom sighs and takes the mop pieces from them. "That's enough, you two. You broke the mop. Now we can't clean the floor.

They say sorry to Mom and the mop. + +Mom hugs them and the mop. She says it is okay. She says they can help her clean the floor with a cloth.

They did not sleep well. They wanted a new bed. + +One day, Mom and Dad said they had a surprise for them. They took them to a big store. There were many beds in the store. Some were big, some were small, some were soft, some were hard. Mom and Dad said they could choose a new bed. + +Lily and Max were happy. They tried many beds. They jumped and bounced and rolled on them. They liked a bed that was big and soft. It had a blue mattress and a white blanket. Mom and Dad said they liked it too. They talked to a man in the store.

They said they would sleep well. Mom and Dad came to their room. They smiled and kissed them. They said they were proud of them. They said they were good twins. They said good night. Lily and Max said good night. They closed their eyes. They dreamed of the new bed. They were happy. +Lily liked to play outside when it rained. She had a big umbrella that was red and yellow and blue. She liked to jump in the puddles and make splashes. She also liked to look at the raindrops on the umbrella and see how they shone. + +One day, she was playing outside with her umbrella when she saw a big gray cloud in the sky. It looked angry and scary. She heard a loud noise like a drum. It was thunder. She felt scared and wanted to go inside. She ran to the door, but she forgot her umbrella. She left it on the grass. + +She opened the door and went inside. She told her mom that she was scared of the thunder. Her mom hugged her and said it was okay. She said they could have some hot chocolate and read a book. Lily felt better and smiled. + +But when she looked out the window, she saw something strange. Her umbrella was not on the grass anymore. It was in the air. The wind had lifted it up and carried it away. It was flying like a bird. Lily watched as it got smaller and smaller. It vanished in the sky. She felt sad and wondered where it went. + +She asked her mom if they could get a new umbrella. Her mom said yes, they could. She said they could go to the store and pick one. Lily hoped they would find a nice one. She hoped it would not vanish like the old one. She hoped it would stay with her when it rained. +Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play in the park. They had a game where they would scatter rocks on the grass and pretend they were wealthy. They would say things like, "Look at all my shiny rocks, I can buy anything I want!" or "I have more rocks than you, I am the richest in the world!" + +One day, a big dog came to the park and saw the rocks. He thought they were bones and ran to get them. He barked and jumped and grabbed the rocks in his mouth. Lily and Ben were scared and ran away. They hid behind a tree and watched the dog. + +"Hey, that's our game, he can't take our rocks!" Lily said. + +"Yeah, he's a mean dog, he doesn't know how to share!" Ben said. + +They waited until the dog was tired and left. Then they went back to the grass and looked for their rocks. But they were all gone. The dog had scattered them all over the park. + +"Oh no, where are our rocks?" Lily said. + +"I don't know, they are everywhere!" Ben said. + +They felt sad and angry. They had lost their game and their wealth. + +"Maybe we can find some new rocks," Lily said. + +"Or maybe we can play something else," Ben said. + +They decided to try to find some new rocks, but they also learned to play with other things, like sticks and leaves and flowers. They realized that they didn't need rocks to have fun. They had each other and their imagination. And that was more than enough. +Sara and Ben were at the lake with their mom and dad. They wanted to swim in the water, but mom said they had to wear hats and sunscreen. Sara and Ben did not like hats and sunscreen. They were stubborn. + +"No hats, no sunscreen!" they said. "We want to swim now!" + +Mom and dad shook their heads. "You have to protect your skin from the sun," mom said. "It can hurt you if you stay too long without hats and sunscreen." + +"But we don't like them!" Ben said. "They are sticky and hot and itchy!" + +Sara nodded. "And they make us look silly!" + +Mom and dad sighed. They knew Sara and Ben loved to swim, but they also wanted them to be safe and healthy. They had an idea. + +"How about this?" dad said. "You can remove your hats and sunscreen for a little while, but only if you swim in the shade of that big tree. And you have to put them back on when you come out. Deal?" + +Sara and Ben looked at each other. They thought about it. They liked the idea of swimming in the shade. It was cooler and more fun. And they could remove their hats and sunscreen for a little while. That was better than nothing. + +"Deal!" they said. They ran to the water and jumped in. They splashed and laughed and had a good time. Mom and dad smiled and watched them. They were glad they found a way to make Sara and Ben happy and safe. They loved their stubborn kids. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, Anna has a new rug in her room. It is big and soft and has many colors. Anna wants to show Ben her new rug. + +She calls Ben on the phone and says, "Ben, come to my house. I have something to show you. It is in my room. You will like it." Ben says, "OK, Anna. I will come soon. I wonder what it is." + +Ben comes to Anna's house and knocks on the door. Anna opens the door and says, "Hi, Ben. Come with me. I will show you my new rug." She takes Ben by the hand and leads him to her room. Ben sees the rug and says, "Wow, Anna. Your rug is very nice. It is big and soft and has many colors. Can I touch it?" + +Anna says, "Yes, Ben. You can touch it. You can also sit on it and play with me. I have some toys and books on the rug. We can have fun." Ben says, "OK, Anna. Thank you for showing me your new rug. It is very calm and cozy. I like it a lot." Anna and Ben sit on the rug and play with toys and books. They are happy and calm. They are good friends. +Lily was scared of the monster under her bed. She hated it very much. Every night, she heard it growl and scratch. She wanted it to go away. + +One night, she decided to be tough and face the monster. She took her flashlight and crawled under the bed. She saw a big, hairy, green thing with sharp teeth and claws. It looked mean and scary. + +"Who are you?" Lily asked, trying not to shake. + +"I'm the monster under your bed," the thing said. "And I'm hungry." + +"What do you eat?" Lily asked, hoping it was not her. + +"I eat little girls who are brave enough to come under the bed," the monster said, licking its lips. + +Lily was very afraid, but she did not want to show it. She had an idea. She pointed her flashlight at the monster's eyes and said, "You can't eat me. I'm not a little girl. I'm a super hero. And I have a super power. I can make you go blind with my light." + +The monster blinked and squinted. It did not like the bright light. It felt a pain in its eyes. It started to whimper and cry. + +"Please, stop. You're hurting me. I'm sorry. I won't eat you. I won't bother you. Just let me go," the monster begged. + +Lily felt sorry for the monster. She realized it was lonely and scared too. She turned off her flashlight and said, "OK, I'll let you go. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you'll be nice and friendly. And that you'll find a new home where you can be happy and safe. And that you'll never come back under my bed." + +The monster nodded and said, "I promise. Thank you for being kind. You're a good super hero. And a good friend." + +Lily smiled and said, "You're welcome. Goodbye, monster." + +The monster crawled out from under the bed and ran away. Lily went back to her bed and slept peacefully. She was not scared of the monster anymore. She was proud of herself for being tough and brave. And she was happy that she made a new friend. +Tim had a dog named Rex. Rex was big and brown and liked to run and play. Tim loved Rex very much and gave him hugs and treats. But Rex had a problem. He had fleas. Fleas are tiny bugs that bite and make Rex itch and scratch. + +One day, Tim saw Rex scratching his ear very hard. He felt sorry for Rex and wanted to help him. He went to his mom and asked, "Mom, can we give Rex a bath? He has fleas and they make him itch." + +Mom nodded and said, "Yes, Tim, we can give Rex a bath. But first, we need to get some shampoo. Shampoo is a special soap that makes fleas go away. Come with me to the store and we will buy some." + +Tim and Mom went to the store and looked for shampoo. There were many kinds of shampoo, but Mom picked one that had a picture of a dog and a flea on it. She said, "This is the shampoo we need. It is unique. Unique means it is different from other shampoos. It has a special smell that fleas do not like. It will make Rex happy and clean." + +Tim and Mom paid for the shampoo and went back home. They filled the tub with warm water and called Rex. Rex did not like baths, but he followed Tim and Mom to the bathroom. Mom opened the shampoo and poured some on Rex's fur. She rubbed it all over him and made bubbles. Tim helped by splashing water on Rex and saying, "Good boy, Rex. You are getting rid of the fleas. You will feel better soon." + +Rex shook his head and wagged his tail. He did not mind the shampoo. It smelled nice and made him feel cool and fresh. He saw the fleas falling off him and floating in the water. He was glad to be free of them. He licked Tim's face and barked, "Thank you, Tim. Thank you, Mom. You are the best. I love you." +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with their toys and read books. One day, they found a big book with many pictures of animals. They opened the book and saw a picture of an elephant. + +"Wow, look at this!" Lily said. "It is an elephant. It has a long nose and big ears." + +"I know, I know," Ben said. "I have seen an elephant before. It can make a loud sound like this: ppphhhrrrr!" + +Lily and Ben tried to make the sound of an elephant. They laughed and had fun. + +Then, they turned the page and saw another picture of an animal. It was a giraffe. It had a long neck and spots. + +"What is this?" Ben asked. "It is not an elephant. It is too tall." + +"It is a giraffe," Lily said. "It can eat leaves from the trees. It is very gentle and friendly." + +"I want to see a giraffe," Ben said. "Can we go to the zoo and see the animals?" + +Lily nodded. She also wanted to see the animals. They ran to their mom and dad and asked them to take them to the zoo. + +"Please, please, please," they said. "We want to see the elephant and the giraffe and the other animals." + +Mom and dad smiled. They saw how excited Lily and Ben were. They decided to take them to the zoo. + +"Okay, okay," they said. "But first, we have to get ready. We have to pack some snacks and drinks and wear our hats and sunscreen." + +Lily and Ben were impatient. They wanted to go to the zoo right away. They did not want to wait. They helped mom and dad to get ready. They packed their backpacks and put on their hats and sunscreen. + +"Are we ready now?" they asked. + +"Yes, we are ready now," mom and dad said. "Let's go to the zoo and see the animals." + +Lily and Ben cheered. They got in the car and drove to the zoo. They could not wait to see the elephant and the giraffe and the other animals. They hoped they could hear the elephant make the loud sound like this: ppphhhrrrr! +Lily and Sam went to the park with Mom. They saw many birds by the pond. Lily liked the white birds with long necks. Mom said they were swans. Sam liked the ducks that quacked. + +"Can I feed the swans?" Lily asked Mom. + +"Sure, but be careful. They might bite," Mom said. She gave Lily some bread to break into pieces. + +Lily threw some bread into the water. The swans came closer. One swan stretched its neck and took a piece from Lily's hand. Lily giggled. She wanted to touch the swan. + +"Can I pet the swan?" Lily asked Mom. + +"No, honey. The swan might not like it. It might peck you," Mom said. + +But Lily did not listen. She reached out her hand to stroke the swan's feathers. The swan did not like it. It hissed and snapped at Lily. Lily screamed and pulled back her hand. The swan bit her finger. It hurt. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Lily cried. "The swan bit me!" + +Mom ran to Lily and hugged her. She looked at her finger. It was red and wet. Mom kissed it and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. The swan was scared. It did not want to be petted. You have to be gentle with animals. They have feelings too." + +Lily nodded. She was sorry too. She did not want to hurt the swan. She looked at the swan. It was swimming away with the other swans. Lily said, "I'm sorry, swan. I won't pet you again. I hope you are happy." + +The swan turned its head and looked at Lily. It did not hiss or snap. It made a soft sound. Lily thought it sounded like a kiss. She smiled and waved at the swan. The swan waved back with its wing. Lily felt better. She said, "Bye, swan. Thank you for the kiss." +Tom and Lily wanted to swim in the pool. But they did not know how deep the pool was. They asked their mom for help. + +"Mom, can we swim in the pool?" Tom asked. + +"Sure, but you have to be careful. The pool is very deep in some parts. You need to measure how deep it is before you jump in." Mom said. + +"How do we measure the pool, mom?" Lily asked. + +"Look, I have a stick. You can use it to measure the pool. Hold it in the water and see how much of it is wet. If the stick is very wet, the pool is very deep. If the stick is a little wet, the pool is not so deep." Mom explained. + +Tom and Lily took the stick and went to the pool. They tried to measure the pool with the stick. They found a spot where the stick was a little wet. They decided to swim there. + +The sun was bright and the water was cool. Tom and Lily had fun swimming in the pool. They splashed and kicked and laughed. They were happy and safe. Mom watched them and smiled. +Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big cloud in the sky. It is white and fluffy. + +"Look, Tom, a cloud!" Mia says. "It looks like a sheep." + +"No, Mia, it looks like a dog," Tom says. "See, it has ears and a tail." + +They argue about the cloud. They do not agree. They get angry. + +"I know how to find out," Tom says. "Let's go to the cloud and see." + +"How can we go to the cloud?" Mia asks. "It is too high." + +"We can use a ladder," Tom says. "I have one in my garage." + +Tom runs to his garage. He gets the ladder. He brings it to Mia. He puts it on the grass. + +"Come on, Mia, let's go," Tom says. He climbs the ladder. + +Mia thinks Tom is foolish. She does not want to go. She stays on the ground. + +"Tom, stop, you can't go to the cloud," Mia says. "The ladder is too short. You will fall." + +But Tom does not listen. He wants to go to the cloud. He climbs higher and higher. + +Then, the wind blows. The cloud moves. It is not a sheep or a dog. It is a dragon. + +Tom sees the dragon. He is scared. He screams. + +"Help, Mia, help!" Tom says. "There is a dragon in the cloud!" + +Mia looks up. She sees the dragon. She laughs. + +"Tom, that is not a dragon," Mia says. "That is just a cloud. It changes shape. You are foolish." + +Tom feels silly. He wants to go down. He climbs down the ladder. He is sorry. + +"Mia, I am sorry," Tom says. "You are right. It is just a cloud. I was foolish." + +Mia smiles. She is not angry. She is still Tom's friend. + +"It's okay, Tom," Mia says. "We all make mistakes. Let's play something else." + +They hug. They play. They are happy. They do not argue about the cloud. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with green things on it. Lily says, "What are those?" Ben says, "They are olives. My mom puts them on pizza." Lily says, "Can we eat them?" Ben says, "I don't know. Let's try." + +They pick some olives and put them in a basket. They carry the basket to a bench. They sit down and eat the olives. Some are sour and some are salty. Lily and Ben make funny faces. They say, "Yuck!" and "Blech!" They do not like the olives. + +A dog comes by. He smells the olives. He likes them. He jumps on the bench and tries to get the basket. Lily and Ben are scared. They hold the basket tight. The dog pulls and pulls. The basket falls on the ground. The olives roll everywhere. The dog chases the olives. He barks and wags his tail. + +Lily and Ben are clumsy. They slip and slide on the olives. They fall down and get dirty. They laugh and cry. They say, "Oops!" and "Ouch!" They do not like the olives. + +A lady comes by. She sees the mess. She says, "What are you doing? Those are my olives. I grow them for my shop. You are naughty children. You have to pay for the olives." Lily and Ben are sorry. They say, "We are sorry. We did not know. We do not have money. We only have toys." The lady says, "Well, then, give me your toys. And clean up the olives." Lily and Ben are sad. They give the lady their toys. They pick up the olives. They carry them to the lady. They say, "Bye, olives. We do not like you." The lady says, "Bye, children. Be careful next time." The dog says, "Woof!" He likes the olives. +Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play together. They had a big box of toys in their room, but they always wanted the same toy. One day, they found a new toy in the box. It was a red car that made a loud noise when you pushed a button. It was a powerful car. + +"Wow, look at this car!" Anna said. "I want to play with it!" + +"No, I want to play with it!" Ben said. "It's my turn!" + +They both grabbed the car and pulled hard. The car made a louder noise and the button popped off. + +"Hey, you broke it!" Anna cried. + +"No, you broke it!" Ben yelled. + +They started to fight and shout. Their mom heard them and came to their room. + +"What's going on here?" she asked. "Why are you fighting?" + +They both pointed at the car and blamed each other. + +"Stop it, both of you!" mom said. "You need to learn to share and take turns. Fighting is not nice. Now, say sorry to each other and give each other a hug." + +Anna and Ben looked at each other and felt sorry. They said sorry and hugged each other. + +"Good, now let's go to the kitchen and have some cocoa," mom said. "Maybe we can fix the car later." + +They followed mom to the kitchen and sat at the table. Mom poured them some hot cocoa and gave them some cookies. + +"Here you go, my sweeties," she said. "Drink your cocoa and be careful, it's hot." + +"Thank you, mom," Anna and Ben said. + +They drank their cocoa and smiled at each other. They decided to pass the car to each other and take turns playing with it. They learned that sharing was more fun than fighting. They also learned that cocoa was delicious. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big stack of boxes near the slide. They want to see what is inside. + +"Let's skip to the stack and look," Anna says. + +"OK, but be careful. Maybe there is something scary inside," Ben says. + +They skip to the stack and lift one box. They see a toy car. They lift another box. They see a doll. They lift another box. They see a mask. The mask has big teeth and red eyes. It is very scary. + +"Ah! A monster!" Anna screams. + +"Run!" Ben shouts. + +They drop the box and run away from the stack. They hide behind the swing. They are very scared. + +"Is the monster gone?" Anna asks. + +"I don't know. Maybe we should go and see," Ben says. + +They peek from behind the swing. They see a man. The man is wearing the mask. He is laughing. + +"Hi, kids. I'm sorry I scared you. I was just having some fun. This is not a real monster. It is just a mask. Do you want to try it on?" the man says. + +Anna and Ben look at each other. They are not scared anymore. They are curious. + +"Can we?" Anna says. + +"Sure. Come on. I have more toys in the stack. You can play with them," the man says. + +He takes off the mask and gives it to Anna. Anna puts it on and makes a scary face. Ben laughs. They skip to the stack and play with the toys. They have fun. The man is nice. He is not a monster. He is a clown. +Lily and Tom were little twins who liked to play outside. They had a big yard with many flowers and trees. They also had a wooden ruler that they used to measure things. + +One morning, they woke up very early and saw the sunrise. The sky was pink and orange and yellow. They ran to the window and looked at the beautiful colors. + +"Wow, look at the sunrise!" Lily said. "It is so pretty!" + +"I wonder how big it is," Tom said. "Let's measure it with our ruler!" + +They took their ruler and held it up to the window. They tried to measure the sunrise, but it was too far away. They could not see the end of the ruler. + +"It is too hard to measure the sunrise," Lily said. "It is bigger than our ruler." + +"Maybe we can measure something else," Tom said. "How about the flowers in the yard?" + +They put on their shoes and jackets and ran outside. They found a red flower and a yellow flower. They measured them with their ruler. + +"The red flower is four inches," Lily said. "The yellow flower is five inches." + +"Look, the yellow flower is bigger than the red flower," Tom said. "But they are both smaller than the sunrise." + +They smiled and hugged each other. They liked to measure things, but they also liked to enjoy the beauty of nature. They decided to watch the sunrise until it was gone. They felt happy and warm. +Tom and Lily were playing in the kitchen. They saw a big jar of red sauce on the counter. Tom said, "Let's try some. It looks yummy." Lily said, "No, Tom. That's Mom's spicy sauce. She uses it for cooking. It's very hot and it will hurt our mouths." But Tom did not listen. He opened the jar and dipped his finger in the sauce. He put it in his mouth and said, "Wow, this is good. It's not spicy at all." He smiled and licked his finger. + +Lily was curious. She wanted to try some too. She dipped her finger in the sauce and put it in her mouth. But she did not like it. It was very spicy and it burned her tongue. She cried, "Ow, ow, ow! This is bad. It's very spicy. It hurts my mouth." She ran to the sink and drank some water. She was very angry at Tom. She said, "Tom, you lied to me. You said it was not spicy. You are a bad brother. Mom will punish you for taking her sauce." + +Tom felt sorry for Lily. He did not mean to hurt her. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I did not lie to you. It was not spicy for me. Maybe I like spicy things and you don't. Please don't be mad at me. Please don't tell Mom. She will punish me and you too. We can share some ice cream to make your mouth feel better." + +But it was too late. Mom heard their voices and came to the kitchen. She saw the jar of sauce on the counter and the sauce on their fingers and mouths. She was very upset. She said, "Tom and Lily, what have you done? You took my spicy sauce without asking. You made a mess and you hurt yourselves. That sauce is not for children. It's for adults. It's very spicy and it can make you sick. You are both very naughty. I will punish you for this. You will not have any ice cream or any dessert tonight. You will go to your rooms and think about what you did wrong." + +Tom and Lily felt very sad and ashamed. They said, "We're sorry, Mom. We won't do it again. We love you." Mom said, "I love you too, but you have to learn to listen and obey. Now go to your rooms and don't come out until I say so." Tom and Lily went to their rooms. They had no ice cream or dessert. They had spicy sauce in their mouths and tears in their eyes. They wished they had never touched the jar of sauce. They learned their lesson. They decided to never take anything from the kitchen without asking Mom. They hoped Mom would forgive them and hug them soon. +Lily liked to play with her dad's tools. She found a long yellow thing that had numbers on it. She learned that it was called a measure. She could pull it out and make it longer or shorter. She could also make a click sound when she pushed a button. + +One day, Lily wanted to measure everything in the house. She measured the sofa, the table, the fridge, and the door. She measured her teddy bear, her doll, and her books. She measured her mom's shoes, her dad's hat, and her brother's bike. She had a lot of fun. + +But then, she saw her dad's office. It was a room where he worked on his computer and had papers and books. Lily wanted to measure the office too. She opened the door and went inside. She saw a big desk, a chair, a lamp, and a shelf. She started to measure them with her measure. + +But she was too playful. She pulled the measure too hard and it snapped back. It hit the lamp and made it fall. The lamp broke and made a loud noise. Lily was scared. She dropped the measure and ran out of the office. + +Her dad heard the noise and came to see what happened. He saw the broken lamp and the measure on the floor. He was not happy. He asked Lily what she did. Lily felt sorry. She said she was sorry. She said she just wanted to measure the office. She said she liked the measure. + +Her dad was still not happy, but he was not angry. He hugged Lily and said he loved her. He said he was glad she liked the measure, but she had to be careful. He said the office was not a place to play. He said he would fix the lamp and the measure. He said he would show her how to use the measure safely. He said they could measure something else together. Lily smiled. She said she loved her dad. She said she wanted to measure the garden. Her dad smiled too. He said that was a good idea. He said they could go to the garden and measure the flowers. They went to the garden and had fun. +Anna and Ben are playing with a big red ball in the park. They like to bounce the ball and catch it. They take turns and have fun. + +But then, a big boy comes and takes the ball from them. He says, "This is mine now. Go away!" He runs away with the ball. + +Anna and Ben are very angry. They want their ball back. They run after the big boy and shout, "Give us our ball! That is not yours! That is ours!" + +The big boy does not listen. He bounces the ball and laughs. He thinks he is very clever. + +But he does not see a hole in the ground. He steps in the hole and falls down. The ball flies out of his hands and rolls back to Anna and Ben. + +Anna and Ben are happy. They pick up the ball and hug it. They say, "This is our ball. We love our ball. You are a bad boy. Go away!" + +The big boy is sad and sorry. He says, "I am sorry. I was wrong. Can I play with you?" + +Anna and Ben think for a moment. They say, "OK. But you have to be nice and share. And say please and thank you." + +The big boy nods and smiles. He says, "Please and thank you. Can I bounce the ball with you?" + +Anna and Ben say, "Yes, you can. But only if you take turns and have fun." + +They bounce the ball and catch it. They play together and have fun. They are friends now. +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park. They see a big slide. They want to climb the slide. + +"Can we climb the slide, Mommy?" Lily asks. + +"Yes, you can, but be careful," Mommy says. Mommy is a lawyer. She works hard. She is glad to have a day off with her twins. + +Lily and Ben run to the slide. They take turns to climb the steps. They hold the rail. They are not scared. + +"Look at me, Mommy!" Ben shouts. He slides down fast. He laughs. + +"Me too, me too!" Lily says. She slides down after Ben. She smiles. + +Mommy watches them. She claps her hands. She is proud of her twins. She is happy. + +"Good job, Lily and Ben!" Mommy says. "You are brave and smart. Do you want to climb the slide again?" + +"Yes, yes, yes!" Lily and Ben say. They run to the slide again. They climb and slide and have fun. Mommy joins them. They hug and kiss. They are a happy family. +Lily was a unique girl. She liked to roll on the grass, the sand, the snow and even the mud. She did not care if she got dirty or wet. She just wanted to have fun and feel the ground under her. + +One day, she found a big ball in the park. It was red and shiny and had a star on it. Lily thought it was the most beautiful ball she had ever seen. She wanted to roll with it and play with it. She picked it up and hugged it. + +But the ball was not happy. It did not like to be hugged or rolled. It wanted to be free and fly in the sky. It had a secret: it was not a ball, but a balloon. It had escaped from a birthday party a year ago and had been wandering around the world. + +The balloon waited for Lily to let go of it. When she did, it quickly flew away, leaving Lily behind. Lily was sad and confused. She did not understand why the ball left her. She cried and ran after it. + +But the balloon was too fast and too high. Lily could not catch it. She watched it disappear in the clouds. She felt lonely and angry. She wished she had a real ball, a ball that would stay with her and roll with her. + +She did not know that the balloon was also sad and lonely. It wished it had a real friend, a friend that would fly with it and hug it. It did not know that Lily was unique, and that she would have loved it anyway. +Lily liked to play with her brown model horse. She named it Rock, because it was strong and fast. She brushed its mane and tail, and put a saddle on it. She pretended to ride Rock around her room, making neighing and galloping sounds. + +One day, her brother Tom came into her room. He saw Rock on her bed and grabbed it. "This is mine now," he said. "It's a cool toy." + +Lily was angry. "No, it's not yours, it's mine!" she shouted. "Give it back, Tom!" + +Tom laughed and ran away with Rock. Lily chased him, but he was too fast. He went to the living room and threw Rock on the couch. Rock bounced and fell on the floor. He broke one of his legs. + +Lily saw what happened and started to cry. "You broke Rock! You're mean, Tom!" + +Tom felt sorry. He saw how much Lily loved Rock. He picked up Rock and gave it to Lily. "I'm sorry, Lily," he said. "I didn't mean to break Rock. I was just playing." + +Lily hugged Rock and looked at his broken leg. She was sad, but she forgave Tom. "It's okay, Tom," she said. "Maybe we can fix Rock. Do you want to help me?" + +Tom nodded. He got some tape and glue from the kitchen. He helped Lily stick Rock's leg back together. It wasn't perfect, but it was better. Lily thanked Tom and smiled. She and Tom decided to play with Rock together. They made a stable for him out of a cardboard box and some hay. They fed him carrots and apples. They took turns riding him around the house. They had fun and became friends. Rock was happy, too. He liked having two people who cared for him. He was a lucky brown model horse. +Jenny was a big girl who liked to do things by herself. She was independent and did not need help from anyone. She liked to eat her lunch alone in her room, where she had her favorite toys and books. + +One day, she decided to make a sandwich with cheese and jam. She got the bread, the cheese and the jam from the kitchen and carried them to her room. She put them on her table and got a knife to cut the bread. She was very careful not to hurt herself with the knife. + +She cut the bread in half and spread some cheese on one slice. Then she opened the jar of jam and tried to scoop some with the knife. But the jar was too big and heavy for her, and she lost her balance. The jar fell from her hand and crashed on the floor, making a loud noise and splashing jam everywhere. + +Jenny was scared and started to cry. She dropped the knife and the bread and ran to the door. She wanted to call her mom, but she remembered that she was independent and did not need help. She tried to open the door, but it was locked. She had locked it by mistake when she came in. + +She felt trapped and alone. She trembled and sobbed, not knowing what to do. She looked around and saw a napkin on her bed. She grabbed it and wiped her face and hands. She hoped that the napkin would make her feel better, but it did not. She wished she had someone to hug her and tell her it was okay. + +She heard a knock on the door. It was her mom, who had heard the noise and came to check on her. She asked Jenny what happened and why she locked the door. Jenny did not answer. She was too ashamed and afraid. + +Her mom said, "Jenny, I know you are a big girl and you like to do things by yourself. But sometimes, you need help from others. It is okay to ask for help when you are in trouble. It does not mean you are not independent. It means you are smart and brave. Can you please unlock the door and let me in? I want to help you clean up and give you a hug." + +Jenny felt a warm feeling in her chest. She realized that her mom was right. She was not alone. She had someone who loved her and cared for her. She unlocked the door and opened it. She saw her mom's smiling face and ran into her arms. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I made a mess. I wanted to make a sandwich by myself, but I dropped the jam and it broke. I was scared and I locked the door. I did not mean to." + +Her mom hugged her and said, "It's okay, Jenny. I'm not mad at you. I'm glad you are safe. Accidents happen. We can clean up the mess together. And then we can make a new sandwich, if you want. Or we can have something else. What do you think?" + +Jenny smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. Can we have some cookies and milk?" + +Her mom said, "Sure, we can. Come on, let's go to the kitchen. And don't forget to bring your napkin. You might need it to wipe your mouth." + +Jenny nodded and took her napkin. She held her mom's hand and walked to the kitchen. She felt happy and proud. She was still independent, but she also knew when to ask for help. She learned a valuable lesson that day. +Ben and Mia were friends who liked to play together. One day, they saw a new boy in the park. He had a big red ball and a funny hat. Ben and Mia wanted to play with him, but they were shy. + +"Hello, what is your name?" the new boy asked them. He smiled and rolled his ball to them. + +"I am Ben and this is Mia," Ben said. He picked up the ball and threw it back. + +"Do you want to play with me?" the new boy asked. "My name is Sam and I am new here. I don't have any friends yet." + +"Yes, we want to play with you," Mia said. She liked Sam's hat and his ball. "You are welcome to join us." + +They played catch and tag and had a lot of fun. Sam was very good at running and catching. He made Ben and Mia laugh with his jokes and tricks. + +But then, a big dog came and chased them. The dog barked and jumped and tried to bite them. Ben and Mia ran away, but Sam tripped and fell. The dog ran to him and licked his face. + +"Help, help!" Sam cried. He was scared and dirty. The dog's tongue was wet and sticky. + +Ben and Mia heard Sam's cry and came back. They saw the dog and Sam on the ground. They were brave and ran to help him. + +"Go away, bad dog!" Ben shouted. He waved his arms and scared the dog. The dog ran away, wagging its tail. + +"Are you okay, Sam?" Mia asked. She helped Sam get up and hugged him. + +"I am okay, thank you," Sam said. He was glad that Ben and Mia came back. He wiped his face with his sleeve and smiled. + +"Thank you for saving me. You are very good friends," Sam said. + +"You are welcome, Sam. You are our friend too," Ben and Mia said. + +They walked back to the park and played some more. They shared their snacks and their stories. They learned that Sam had moved from another town and that he liked to draw and sing. They found out that they had a lot in common and that they liked each other. + +They decided to play together every day and to invite other kids to join them. They learned that it is good to be kind and brave and to make new friends. They learned that even if someone looks different or comes from somewhere else, they can still be a good friend. They learned that everyone is special and no one is ordinary. +Lily was a stubborn girl who did not like to wake up early. Every morning, her alarm would ring loudly and make her angry. She would hide under her blanket and pretend not to hear it. + +One day, her alarm did not ring. Lily was happy and thought she could sleep more. But then she heard a knock on her door. It was her mom, who came to check on her. + +"Lily, wake up! It's time for school!" her mom said. + +"No, mom, I want to sleep!" Lily said. + +"But your alarm did not ring today. It's broken. You are late!" her mom said. + +Lily did not believe her mom. She thought her mom was lying to make her get up. She was still stubborn and did not want to leave her bed. + +"Mom, go away! I don't want to go to school!" Lily said. + +Her mom sighed and opened the curtains. She pointed to the window and said, "Look, Lily, the sun is up. It's morning. Everyone is awake. You have to go to school." + +Lily looked at the window and saw the bright sun. She also saw a bird on the tree. The bird was singing a song. Lily liked the bird and wanted to hear more. + +She got out of her bed and went to the window. She smiled and said, "Hello, bird. You have a nice song." + +The bird looked at her and said, "Hello, Lily. Thank you. You have a nice voice." + +Lily was surprised and happy. She did not know that birds could talk. She asked the bird, "Can you be my friend?" + +The bird nodded and said, "Yes, I can. But you have to go to school first. School is good for you. You can learn many things and make more friends." + +Lily thought about it and decided that the bird was right. She said, "Okay, bird. I will go to school. But can you wait for me here? I want to talk to you more when I come back." + +The bird agreed and said, "Sure, Lily. I will wait for you here. Have a good day at school." + +Lily hugged the bird and said, "Thank you, bird. You are a good friend." + +She ran to her mom and said, "Mom, I'm ready for school. Let's go!" + +Her mom was happy and proud. She said, "That's my girl. I'm glad you changed your mind. Let's go!" + +They left the house and went to the car. Lily waved to the bird and said, "Bye, bird. See you later!" + +The bird waved back and said, "Bye, Lily. See you later!" + +The end. +Tommy loved cars. He liked to play with his toy cars and make them zoom and beep. He also liked to watch his dad work on real cars. His dad was a mechanic. He fixed cars that were broken or old. + +One day, Tommy went to the garage with his dad. He saw a big red car that looked very shiny and fast. He wanted to touch it and see inside. His dad said, "No, Tommy, this car is not ours. It belongs to a customer. We have to be careful and not make it dirty or scratch it." + +But Tommy was curious. He waited until his dad was busy with another car. Then he sneaked to the red car and opened the door. He climbed inside and saw many buttons and lights. He wondered what they did. He pressed one and heard a loud noise. He pressed another and felt the car move. He pressed more and more, and the car started to go faster and faster. He did not know how to stop it. + +"Tommy, what are you doing?" his dad shouted. He ran to the red car and tried to open the door. But it was locked. He banged on the window and told Tommy to stop. But Tommy was scared and confused. He kept pressing buttons and the car kept going. It went out of the garage and onto the street. It bumped into other cars and people. It made a lot of noise and smoke. + +Tommy felt dizzy. He wanted to get out of the car. He wanted his dad. He cried and screamed. He did not like cars anymore. He wished he had listened to his dad. He wished he had stayed in the garage and played with his toy cars. +Sara and Ben are hungry. They want to eat something yummy.

We will call your name." + +Mom says, "We have to wait a little bit. The restaurant is very busy. They have many people who want to eat." + +Sara and Ben are very hungry. They look at the menu. They see pictures of pizza, pasta, salad, and ice cream. They want to eat everything. + +Ben says, "Mom, can I have pizza and ice cream?" + +Mom says, "Yes, you can have pizza and ice cream. But you have to eat some salad too. Salad is good for you." + +Sara says, "Mom, can I have pasta and ice cream?" + +Mom says, "Yes, you can have pasta and ice cream. But you have to eat some salad too. Salad is good for you." + +Sara and Ben nod. They like salad, but they like pizza and pasta and ice cream more. + +Soon, they hear their name.

They see a big slide. It is very high. They want to go on the slide. + +Tom and Mia climb the steps. They hold hands. They are a little scared. They squeeze each other's hands. They feel better. + +They reach the top. They see the slide. It is shiny and fast. They sit on the slide. They let go of the steps. They slide down. They laugh and scream. + +They land on the ground. They are happy. They hug each other. They see a tunnel. It is under the slide. They crawl into the tunnel. They play hide and seek. They have fun. They love the park. +Anna loves to dance.

The dancers are very good. They value their art. They practice a lot. They want to make us smile." + +The curtain opens and the show begins. Anna sees the dancers move and jump and spin. They wear colorful costumes and shiny shoes. They dance to different songs. Some are fast and some are slow. Some are loud and some are soft. + +Anna likes one dancer the most.

She claps and cheers. She feels inspired and happy. She loves to dance. +Timmy loved to spin. He spun in his room, he spun in the yard, he spun everywhere he could. He liked to pretend he was a comet, flying fast and bright in the sky. He made whooshing noises and stretched his arms out as he spun. + +One day, he went to the park with his mom and saw a big slide. He wanted to spin on the slide, like a comet going down a hill. He ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. He saw a girl waiting at the top. She had long hair and a pink dress. + +"Hi, I'm Timmy. Can I spin on the slide?" he asked. + +"No, you can't. This is my slide. You have to slide down normally, like this." The girl said. She slid down the slide, sitting on her bottom and holding her dress. + +"But I want to spin. Spinning is fun. Please let me spin." Timmy said. + +"No, no, no. You can't spin. Spinning is silly. You'll get dizzy and fall. Go away." The girl said. She climbed up the ladder again and pushed Timmy aside. + +Timmy felt miserable. He didn't like the girl. She was mean and bossy. He wanted to spin on the slide, but she wouldn't let him. He looked at the slide and had an idea. He waited until the girl slid down again, then he followed her. He spun as fast as he could, like a comet, and landed on the girl's head. + +"Ow! Ow! Ow! Get off me! You hurt me!" The girl cried. She had Timmy's feet on her face and his hands on her hair. + +"Sorry, sorry, sorry. I just wanted to spin." Timmy said. He got off the girl and ran to his mom. + +"Timmy, what did you do? Why is that girl crying?" His mom asked. + +"I spun on the slide, like a comet. She didn't like it. She was mean to me." Timmy said. + +"Timmy, you can't spin on the slide. That's dangerous and rude. You could have hurt yourself or someone else. You have to apologize to the girl and say you're sorry." His mom said. + +Timmy didn't want to apologize. He didn't like the girl. But he knew his mom was right. He walked to the girl, who was still sobbing and holding her head. + +"I'm sorry I spun on you. I didn't mean to hurt you. I just like to spin." Timmy said. + +The girl looked at him and sniffed. She wiped her tears and said, "It's okay. I'm sorry I was mean to you. I just like to slide. I don't like to spin." + +Timmy nodded. He understood. He said, "Maybe we can play together. You can slide and I can spin. We can take turns." + +The girl smiled. She said, "Okay. That sounds fun. I'm Lily, by the way." + +"I'm Timmy. Nice to meet you." Timmy said. + +They shook hands and went to the slide. They played together, sliding and spinning, until it was time to go home. Timmy was happy. He had made a new friend. He still loved to spin, but he learned to share and be careful. He hoped to see Lily again and play with her. He thought she was a nice girl, even if she didn't like to spin. +Anna was a little girl who liked to crawl under her bed. She had a secret box there, with her toys and books and a flashlight. She liked to pretend she was in a cave or a castle or a spaceship. Sometimes, she would fall asleep under the bed and have a dream. + +One night, she had a bad dream. She dreamed that a big monster came into her room and took her secret box away. The monster was loud and scary and mean. Anna tried to scream, but no one heard her. She tried to run, but the monster was faster. She felt very upset and afraid. + +She woke up with a start and saw that it was dark. She heard a noise outside her door. She thought it was the monster. She grabbed her flashlight and turned it on. She crawled out from under the bed and peeked through the crack. She saw a shadow on the wall. It looked like the monster. + +She was about to cry, when she heard a voice. It was her mom. She said, "Anna, are you awake? I brought you some milk and cookies. I'm sorry I was late. I had to work extra today." + +Anna felt a wave of relief. She realized it was not the monster, but her mom. She opened the door and hugged her mom. She told her about her bad dream and her secret box. Her mom smiled and said, "Don't worry, sweetie. Your secret box is safe under your bed. No one can take it away from you. And I have a surprise for you. I bought you a new toy. It's a stuffed animal. It looks like a lion, but it's very soft and friendly. You can name it whatever you want. It will keep you company and protect you from bad dreams." + +Anna was very happy. She thanked her mom and took the stuffed animal. She named it Leo. She crawled back under her bed with Leo and her secret box. She felt cozy and warm. She said good night to her mom and turned off her flashlight. She closed her eyes and had a good dream. +Lily loved to bake with her mom. They made cakes and pies and cookies for everyone. Lily liked to mix the flour and the eggs and the sugar in a big bowl. She also liked to lick the spoon when they were done. + +One day, Lily and her mom were baking a cake for dad's birthday. They put the cake in the oven and waited for it to be ready. Lily saw a big sack on the counter. It was full of nuts and raisins and chocolate chips. Lily wanted to taste them. She climbed on a chair and reached for the sack. + +But the sack was too heavy for Lily. It slipped from her hands and fell on the floor. The nuts and raisins and chocolate chips spilled everywhere. Lily lost her balance and fell off the chair. She hit her head on the table and felt dizzy. + +Mom heard the noise and ran to the kitchen. She saw Lily on the floor and the mess on the floor. She was scared and worried. She picked up Lily and hugged her. She checked her head and saw a small bump. She kissed it and said, "Are you okay, sweetie?" + +Lily nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to try the nuts and raisins and chocolate chips. They looked yummy." + +Mom smiled and said, "It's okay, Lily. I know you were curious. But you have to be careful and ask me first. Those are for the cake. We can have some later, after we sing happy birthday to dad. Do you want to help me clean up?" + +Lily said, "Yes, mom. I want to help. And I want to bake with you again. I love you, mom." + +Mom said, "I love you too, Lily. You are my little baker." +Tom and Sue are twins. They like to play with their toys. But they do not like to share. They hate when the other one takes their toy. + +One day, they find a big loop in the yard. It is shiny and round. They both want to play with it. They run to the loop and pull it. + +"Let go! It is mine!" Tom says. + +"No, it is mine!" Sue says. + +They pull and pull. The loop gets bigger and bigger. They do not see the busy road behind them. + +A big truck is coming. It is loud and fast. It does not see the twins and the loop. + +The loop breaks. Tom and Sue fall to the ground. The truck stops. The driver gets out. He is angry and scared. + +"What are you doing here? You could have been hurt!" he says. + +Tom and Sue look at each other. They look at the broken loop. They feel sorry and sad. + +They hug each other. They say, "I am sorry. I love you." + +They learn to share. They do not hate anymore. They are happy. +Sara and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big dog. The dog had a red ball in his mouth. He looked cool and fun. + +"Can we play with the dog?" Sara asked Tom. + +"I don't know. Maybe he is not nice. Maybe he will bite us," Tom said. + +Sara was not afraid. She loved dogs. She walked to the dog and said, "Hello, dog. Can I pet you? Can I play with your ball?" + +The dog wagged his tail. He dropped the ball and licked Sara's face. He was very friendly. Sara laughed and threw the ball. The dog ran after it and brought it back. Sara and the dog played catch. + +Tom watched them. He was still scared. He did not believe the dog was nice. He stayed away from the dog. He did not want to touch his paw or his fur. + +Sara and the dog had a lot of fun. They ran and jumped and rolled on the grass. Sara was happy. She said, "You are a good dog. You are my new friend. What is your name?" + +The dog barked. He did not have a name. He did not have a home. He was alone. + +Sara felt sad for the dog. She said, "You can come with me. You can be my dog. I will give you a name. I will call you Spot. Do you like that?" + +The dog barked again. He liked that. He liked Sara. He followed her to her house. He was not alone anymore. + +Tom saw Sara and the dog leave. He felt sorry. He missed his chance to play with the dog. He wished he was not scared. He wished he believed the dog was nice. He wished he had a new friend too. +Lily wanted to bake a cake for her mom's birthday. She asked her brother Tom to help her. Tom was miserable. He did not like baking. He wanted to play with his cars. + +"Please, Tom, help me. Mom will be happy if we bake a cake for her," Lily said. + +"No, Lily, I don't want to. Baking is boring. You do it by yourself," Tom said. + +Lily was sad. She tried to bake the cake by herself, but it was hard. She spilled the flour, she broke the eggs, she burned the oven. She cried. + +Tom heard Lily crying. He felt sorry for her. He went to the kitchen and saw the mess. He hugged Lily and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was mean to you. I will help you bake the cake. We can do it together." + +Lily smiled. She thanked Tom. They cleaned the kitchen and baked a new cake. It was yummy. Mom was happy when she saw the cake. She hugged Lily and Tom and said, "You are the best children.

"They look yummy!" + +"Yes, they do!" Ben says. "But they are too high. How can we get them?" + +Lily thinks. She has an idea. She sees a white box near the tree. She runs to the box and pushes it to the tree. + +"Let's use the box!" she says. "We can stand on it and stretch our arms. Maybe we can reach the apples." + +Ben likes the idea. He helps Lily push the box. They climb on the box and stretch their arms. They try to grab the apples. + +Lily is lucky. She touches an apple and pulls it down. She smiles and holds the apple. + +"I got one!" she says. "It smells good!" + +Ben is not so lucky. He stretches and stretches, but he cannot touch any apple. He frowns and sighs. + +"I can't get any!" he says. "They are still too high!" + +Lily sees Ben is sad. She is a good friend. She breaks her apple in half and gives one half to Ben. + +"Here, Ben, you can have some of mine!" she says. "We can share!" + +Ben smiles and takes the half apple. He thanks Lily and bites the apple. + +"Mmm, it tastes good!" he says. "Thank you, Lily!" + +Lily and Ben eat the apple together. They are happy. They are good friends. +Sara was a little girl who loved to play with her doll. She named her doll Anna and gave her a pink dress and a yellow hat. Sara liked to pretend that Anna was her sister and they did everything together. + +One day, Sara and Anna went to the park with Sara's mom. They saw a big slide, a swing, and a sandbox. Sara wanted to try them all, but Anna was scared. Sara said, "Don't worry, Anna. I will hold your hand and we will have fun." + +Sara and Anna went on the slide first. Sara held Anna tight and they slid down fast. Anna felt the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She smiled and said, "Whee!" Sara said, "See, Anna? The slide is fun!" + +Then they went on the swing. Sara pushed Anna gently and Anna swung back and forth. Anna felt like she was flying and she laughed and said, "Wow!" Sara said, "See, Anna? The swing is fun!" + +Finally, they went to the sandbox. Sara and Anna made a big castle with sand and shells. They decorated it with flowers and leaves. Anna was very proud of their castle and she said, "Look!" Sara said, "See, Anna? The sandbox is fun!" + +Sara's mom watched them play and smiled. She thought Sara and Anna were adorable. She took a picture of them with her phone and said, "Cheese!" Sara and Anna looked at the camera and blinked. They said, "Cheese!" Sara's mom said, "You are my favorite person, Sara. And Anna is your favorite person, right?" Sara nodded and hugged Anna. She said, "Yes, mom. Anna is my favorite person. And you are my favorite person too." +Tim and Kim are twins. They like to play and share. But sometimes they fight over things. One day, they fight over a cookie. + +"Mom gave me this cookie. It is mine!" Tim says. + +"No, it is mine! I saw it first!" Kim says. + +They pull and tug at the cookie. The cookie breaks in half. They both cry. + +Mom hears them and comes to see. She is not happy. + +"Why are you fighting over a cookie? You are ignorant. You have more cookies in the jar. You can both have one. But first, you have to say sorry to each other." Mom says. + +Tim and Kim look at each other. They feel bad. They say sorry and hug. + +"Can we have a cookie now, Mom?" they ask. + +"Yes, you can. But only one each. And then you have to brush your teeth and go to bed. It is late." Mom says. + +Tim and Kim nod. They take a cookie from the jar and eat it. It is yummy. They brush their teeth and go to bed. They are happy. They say good night to Mom and to each other. + +They fall asleep and dream of cookies. They do not fight anymore. +Lily and Ben were playing in the sand. They had a big bucket and a small shovel. They wanted to make a sand castle. Lily filled the bucket with sand and Ben packed it tight. Then they turned the bucket over and lifted it up. A nice sand tower came out. + +"Wow, it looks good!" Lily said. "Let's make more!" + +They made four more sand towers and put them in a circle. Then they used the shovel to dig a moat around them. They were very happy with their sand castle. + +But then a big dog came running. It saw the sand castle and thought it was fun. It jumped over the moat and bit one of the sand towers. It broke into pieces. The dog wagged its tail and bit another tower. + +"Hey, stop that!" Ben shouted. "That's our sand castle!" + +Lily and Ben ran to the dog and tried to push it away. But the dog was too strong and too fast. It bit all the sand towers and made a big mess. Lily and Ben were very sad and angry. + +"Bad dog! Go away!" Lily cried. + +The dog's owner saw what was happening and came over. He grabbed the dog by the collar and pulled it back. + +"I'm so sorry!" he said. "He didn't mean to ruin your sand castle. He just likes to play." + +He gave Lily and Ben a new bucket and a new shovel. He also gave them a hug and a cookie. + +"Thank you," Lily and Ben said. "But it was very difficult to make the sand castle. We worked hard." + +"I know, I know," the owner said. "Maybe you can make another one. And maybe the dog can watch and learn not to bite." + +Lily and Ben nodded. They decided to give the dog another chance. They took the new bucket and shovel and went to a different spot. They started to make a new sand castle. The dog sat and watched. He did not bite. He learned. +Lily liked to design things. She used paper, crayons, scissors and glue to make pictures, cards and toys. She had a lot of fun with her designs and showed them to her mom and dad. + +One day, she went to play with her friend Max, who lived in a big house. Max had many toys, but he did not like to share them. He said they were too expensive and special for Lily to touch. He only let her play with some old blocks and a broken doll. + +Lily felt sad and bored. She asked Max, "Can we design something together? I have some paper and crayons in my backpack. We can make a rocket or a castle or a dragon." + +Max looked at her paper and crayons and laughed. "That's not designing, that's just drawing. Designing is when you make something real and fancy, like my toys. You don't know how to design, you only know how to scribble." + +Lily felt angry and hurt. She said, "That's not true, designing is when you use your imagination and creativity to make something new and beautiful. My paper and crayons are real and fancy, because I can make anything I want with them. You don't know how to design, you only know how to buy." + +Max got mad and yelled, "You're just jealous, because you're poor and I'm wealthy. You can't play with my toys, and you can't play with me. Go away, you're not my friend anymore." + +Lily picked up her backpack and ran out of the house. She cried all the way home. She decided she did not want to play with Max anymore. He was mean and selfish and did not understand what designing was. She hugged her mom and dad and showed them her designs. They smiled and praised her for her talent and imagination. They said they were proud of her and loved her very much. Lily felt happy and loved. She knew she had the best parents and the best designs in the world. +Tom was restless. He did not want to nap. He wanted to play with his trumpet. He liked to make loud noises with it. He thought it was fun. + +Mom was busy. She had to stir the soup. She told Tom to be quiet. She said the soup was for dinner. She said Tom had to nap before dinner. She said napping was good for him. + +Tom did not listen. He sneaked out of his bed. He took his trumpet. He went to the kitchen. He saw Mom stirring the soup. He saw the soup was hot and steamy. He had an idea. + +He blew his trumpet as loud as he could. He shouted, "Surprise!" He thought Mom would be happy. He thought Mom would laugh. + +Mom was not happy. Mom did not laugh. Mom was scared. She jumped. She dropped the spoon. The soup splashed. The soup burned Mom's hand. Mom cried. Tom cried. + +Mom hugged Tom. She said, "I love you, but you scared me. You made a mess. You hurt me. You have to be careful. You have to listen. You have to nap." + +Tom said, "I'm sorry, Mom. I love you too. I wanted to make you happy. I wanted to play with my trumpet. I was restless." + +Mom said, "I know, Tom. But sometimes you have to be quiet. Sometimes you have to rest. Sometimes you have to wait. Then you can play with your trumpet. Then you can make me happy. Then we can have dinner." + +Tom nodded. He said, "OK, Mom. I will nap. I will be quiet. I will wait. I will be good." + +Mom smiled. She said, "Thank you, Tom. You are a good boy. I will clean the mess. I will fix the soup. I will kiss your hand. I will kiss your cheek." + +Tom smiled. He said, "You are a good mom. I will kiss your hand. I will kiss your cheek. I will nap. I will dream of trumpets." +Ben and Lily were twins who liked to watch TV. They saw many things on TV that they wanted to have, like toys, clothes, and candy. They asked their mom and dad for money to buy those things, but their mom and dad said no. They said money was hard to earn and they had to save it for important things, like food, school, and bills. + +One day, Ben and Lily saw a big jar of money on the kitchen table. It was their mom and dad's savings for a vacation. Ben and Lily thought they could take some money from the jar and buy what they wanted, and their mom and dad would not notice. They waited until their mom and dad were busy in another room, and then they sneaked to the kitchen. They opened the jar and took some money. They put the jar back on the table, but they did not close it well. + +They ran to the store with the money and bought many things. They were very happy and excited. They did not see the jar fall from the table and break on the floor. They did not hear their mom and dad scream and cry. They did not know they had hurt their mom and dad very much. + +When they came back home, they saw the broken jar and the money scattered on the floor. They saw their mom and dad sitting on the couch, looking very sad and angry. They knew they had done something very bad. They felt very sorry and ashamed. They said to their mom and dad, "We are so sorry. We took some money from the jar to buy things we saw on TV. We did not think it was a big deal. We did not mean to hurt you. Please forgive us." + +Their mom and dad hugged them and said, "We love you, but we are very disappointed in you. You should not take money that is not yours. You should not lie to us. You should not waste money on things you do not need. You should be grateful for what you have. Money is not everything. Happiness is not in things, but in people. You have hurt us, but you have also hurt yourselves. You have to learn from your mistake and be more responsible and honest." + +Ben and Lily nodded and said, "We understand. We are sorry. We love you. We will be better." They gave back the things they bought and helped their mom and dad clean up the mess. They also helped their mom and dad save money for the vacation. They learned their lesson and never took money again. They also watched less TV and played more with their toys, clothes, and candy that their mom and dad gave them. They were happier and closer as a family. +Ben and Lily were playing on the farm. They liked to run and jump and see the animals. They saw a big field of wheat. The wheat was yellow and soft and made a nice sound when the wind blew. + +"Let's go in the wheat!" Lily said. "It looks like fun!" + +"OK!" Ben said. He followed Lily into the wheat. They made a path with their feet and laughed. They felt like they were in a maze. + +But then they heard a loud noise. It was a tractor. The tractor was big and red and had a sharp thing on the back. The tractor was coming to cut the wheat. + +"Look out!" Ben shouted. "The tractor is coming! We have to get out of the wheat!" + +He grabbed Lily's hand and tried to find the way back. But they were lost. The wheat was too high and they could not see the farm. They were scared. + +"Help!" Lily cried. "Help us!" + +The tractor was getting closer and closer. The noise was very loud. Ben and Lily hugged each other and closed their eyes. + +But then they felt a push. It was their dog, Spot. Spot was a good dog. He had followed them into the wheat and heard their cries. He pushed them with his nose and barked. He showed them the way out of the wheat. + +Ben and Lily ran after Spot. They reached the edge of the field just in time. The tractor passed by and cut the wheat where they had been. They were safe. + +"Thank you, Spot!" Ben and Lily said. They hugged their dog and kissed him. Spot wagged his tail and licked their faces. + +They ran back to the farm and told their mom what had happened. Their mom was glad they were OK. She gave them a hug and a glass of milk. She also gave them a cookie. The cookie was spicy. It had cinnamon and ginger in it. + +"Did you like the cookie?" their mom asked. + +"Yes, we did!" Ben and Lily said. "But not as much as we like Spot. He is the best dog ever!" +Sam was a loyal dog. He loved his boy Tom and followed him everywhere. Tom liked to play with Sam in the yard and throw a ball for him. Sam always ran fast and brought the ball back to Tom. + +One day, Tom saw a wire on the ground. He did not know what it was, but it looked shiny and fun. He picked it up and tried to bend it. It was hard and sharp. He wanted to show it to Sam. He called Sam and offered him the wire. + +Sam was happy to see Tom and ran to him. He saw the wire in Tom's hand and thought it was a toy. He opened his mouth and tried to grab it. But the wire was not a toy. It was a live wire from a broken lamp. It had electricity in it. When Sam bit the wire, he got a big shock. He yelped and fell down. He did not move. + +Tom was scared and dropped the wire. He ran to Sam and hugged him. He cried and called for help. But it was too late. Sam was gone. Tom lost his loyal friend. He was very sad. He wished he never found the wire. He wished he never offered it to Sam. He wished he could play with Sam again. +Lily liked to play the piano. She had a white piano in her room. She liked to make music with the keys. She learned some songs from her mom. + +One day, Lily smelled something bad. She saw smoke in the hall. She heard a loud noise. She was scared. She ran to her mom. + +"Mom, mom, what is that?" Lily asked. + +"Fire, fire, we have to get out!" Mom said. She grabbed Lily and ran to the door. They saw flames in the living room. The fire was burning the sofa and the table. + +"Mom, what about my piano?" Lily cried. + +"I'm sorry, honey, we can't save it. It's too dangerous. We have to go now!" Mom said. She hugged Lily and took her outside. They saw the fire truck and the firefighters. They sprayed water on the house. + +Lily was sad. She lost her piano. She loved her piano. She hoped she could play music again. Mom saw Lily's tears. She kissed her cheek. + +"Don't worry, Lily, we are safe. That's what matters. And I have a surprise for you. Look!" Mom said. She pointed to the back of the fire truck. There was a small white piano. It was a gift from the firefighters. They saw Lily's piano in her room and wanted to make her happy. + +Lily smiled. She ran to the piano. She thanked the firefighters. She played a song for them. She was happy. She still had music. +Sam and Mia are friends. They like to play at the gym. The gym has many toys and games. Sam and Mia like to run and jump and slide. + +One day, they see a new game at the gym. It is a race. There are two lines of cones. The cones are red and blue. The game is to run from one cone to another and touch them. The first one to touch all the cones wins. + +Sam and Mia want to play the race. They choose their cones. Sam chooses the red cones. Mia chooses the blue cones. They stand at the start line. They are ready to run. + +"Are you ready?" Sam asks. + +"Yes, I am ready!" Mia says. + +"Go!" they say together. + +Sam and Mia run as fast as they can. They touch the cones one by one. They are both very fast. They run and run and run. + +Sam is almost at the end. He sees the last red cone. He runs faster. He reaches the cone and touches it. He thinks he wins. + +But Mia is faster. She runs faster than Sam. She touches the last blue cone before Sam. She wins. + +"Yay! I win!" Mia says. + +"Wow! You are very fast!" Sam says. + +"Thank you! You are fast too!" Mia says. + +They hug and smile. They are happy. They are still friends. They like to play at the gym. +Sara and Tom are twins. They like to observe things. They have a big view from their window. They can see the park, the cars, the birds and the sky. + +One day, they observe a thin cat. The cat is gray and has a long tail. The cat walks on the fence. It looks for food. Sara and Tom feel sorry for the cat. + +"Look, Tom, the cat is thin. It is hungry. Can we give it some milk?" Sara asks. + +"OK, Sara, let's ask Mom. Maybe she has some milk for the cat." Tom says. + +They run to Mom. They tell her about the cat. Mom smiles. She gives them a bowl of milk. She says they can put it on the porch. + +Sara and Tom are happy. They take the bowl of milk. They put it on the porch. They wait for the cat. The cat sees the milk. It jumps from the fence. It runs to the porch. It drinks the milk. It purrs. + +Sara and Tom observe the cat. They smile. They think the cat is cute. They hope the cat will come back. They want to be friends with the cat. +Anna and Ben were twins who liked to go on safari in their backyard. They had a big tent, a toy jeep, and many stuffed animals. They pretended to be explorers and saw lions, zebras, and giraffes. But Anna was very bossy. She always told Ben what to do and where to go. Ben did not like that. + +One day, they found a new animal in their safari. It was a bunny. It was white and fluffy and had long ears. Ben wanted to pet it, but Anna said no. She said it was her bunny and she would name it Hoppy. She put Hoppy in a cage and took it to the tent. She said Ben could not play with it. Ben was sad. + +The next day, Anna and Ben went back to the safari. Anna wanted to show Hoppy to the other animals. She opened the cage and took Hoppy out. But Hoppy did not want to stay with Anna. Hoppy wanted to be free. Hoppy hopped away from Anna and ran to the grass. Anna chased Hoppy, but Hoppy was too fast. Hoppy hopped over the fence and into the woods. Anna could not catch Hoppy. Anna was mad. + +Ben saw what happened. He felt sorry for Anna, but he also felt happy for Hoppy. He thought Hoppy deserved to be free and have fun. He went to Anna and gave her a hug. He said they could still play safari without Hoppy. He said they could share the other animals and take turns being the boss. Anna agreed. She said she was sorry for being so bossy. She said she learned a lesson. She said Hoppy taught her to be nice. Ben smiled. They went back to the tent and played safari. They had fun. +Lila and Tom are playing with water and sand in the backyard. They make a big castle with a moat and a bridge. They are very happy and proud of their work. + +"Look at our castle, Mom!" Lila calls. "It is so big and pretty!" + +Mom comes to see their castle. She smiles and says, "It is very attractive, indeed. You did a great job, Lila and Tom. Do you want a prize for your work?" + +Lila and Tom nod and clap their hands. They love prizes. Mom goes inside and comes back with two popsicles. One is red and one is blue. + +"Here you go, my sweeties. You can choose which one you want. But be careful, they are cold and wet. Don't let them drip on your clothes or on your castle." + +Lila and Tom take the popsicles and say, "Thank you, Mom. You are the best!" They lick the popsicles and enjoy the sweet and cold taste. They sit on the grass and watch their castle. + +But soon, the sun is very hot and bright. It makes the water and the sand dry. The moat and the bridge start to crack and crumble. The castle loses its shape and falls apart. + +Lila and Tom are sad and disappointed. They worked so hard on their castle. They don't want it to go away. + +"Mom, Mom, look what happened to our castle!" Lila cries. "The sun made it dry and ruined it!" + +Mom comes to hug them and says, "I'm sorry, my loves. The sun is very strong today. It can dry anything that is wet. But don't worry, you can make another castle tomorrow. Or you can make something else with water and sand. You have a lot of imagination and creativity. And you still have your popsicles. They are not dry, are they?" + +Lila and Tom look at their popsicles. They are still cold and wet. They still have some left. They smile and say, "No, Mom, they are not dry. They are yummy and fun. And you are right, we can make something else tomorrow. We are not sad anymore. We are happy!" + +They hug Mom and finish their popsicles. They throw the sticks in the trash and wash their hands and faces. They go inside and play with their toys. They forget about their dry castle. They are happy with their prize and their Mom. +Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tent. There are many people going inside. Ben and Lily want to see what is inside too. + +They follow the people and find a seat. They see a man with a red nose and big shoes. He makes funny noises and faces. He is a clown. Ben and Lily laugh. They like the clown. + +Then, they see some animals. There are lions, tigers, elephants and monkeys. They are wild animals. They make loud sounds and jump around. The clown tells the people to be quiet and watch. He says he will perform a trick with the animals. + +The clown takes a hoop and a whip. He goes near the lions. He makes the lions jump through the hoop. He makes the tigers sit and roll over. He makes the elephants stand on their hind legs. He makes the monkeys clap and dance. Ben and Lily clap too. They think the clown is brave and clever. + +But then, something goes wrong. The monkeys get angry. They grab the whip and the hoop from the clown. They throw them at the clown. The clown falls down. The monkeys run away. They jump on the seats and the people. They make a mess. The people scream and run. Ben and Lily are scared. They hold each other's hands. They want to go home. + +The clown gets up. He is not hurt. He is still smiling. He says, "Don't worry, kids. It's all part of the show. The monkeys are just playing. They are not wild. They are well trained. They will come back soon. Please stay and enjoy the show." + +Ben and Lily look at each other. They don't know if the clown is telling the truth or not. They don't want to see more animals. They want to see something else. They say, "No, thank you, Mr. Clown. We have seen enough. We want to go now. Goodbye." + +They get up and leave the tent. They go back to the park. They play on the swings and the slide. They have fun. They forget about the wild animals and the clown. They are happy. +Sara and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. Sara had a furry teddy bear and Tom had a wooden train. They were having fun, making noises and pretending to go on adventures. + +But then Tom saw Sara's teddy bear and wanted it. He said, "Give me your bear, Sara. It is soft and nice. My train is hard and boring." + +Sara said, "No, Tom. This is my bear. You have your train. Go away." + +Tom got angry and grabbed Sara's bear. He pulled and pulled, but Sara did not let go. They started to fight and shout. + +Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw them fighting over the bear and was very upset. She said, "Stop it, both of you. You are being very naughty and rude. You need to share and be kind. Give me the bear and the train, now." + +She took the toys from them and walked away. She said, "You will not get them back until you say sorry and hug each other. Go to your rooms and think about what you did." + +Sara and Tom were sad and angry. They did not want to say sorry or hug each other. They did not want to lose their toys. They went to their rooms and slammed the doors. They shut their eyes and cried. + +They did not see the symbol on the wall. It was a big red circle with a line through it. It meant "Do not slam the door". It was there because the doors were old and weak. If they slammed too hard, they could break. + +But Sara and Tom slammed too hard. The doors broke and fell on them. They got hurt and scared. They screamed for help, but no one heard them. They were stuck under the doors, alone and in pain. + +The end. +Tim and Lily were playing with their board. It was a modest board, with some shapes and colors on it. They liked to imagine that the board was a map of a big world, and they were explorers. + +"Look, this is a mountain, and this is a river," Tim said, pointing to the board. + +"No, this is a castle, and this is a moat," Lily said, pointing to the same spots. + +They started to argue. They both wanted to imagine their own things. + +"That's not fair, you always get to choose," Tim said. + +"Well, you always say no to my ideas," Lily said. + +They got angry and pushed the board away. The board fell on the floor and broke. They both felt sad and sorry. + +They looked at each other and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to break the board." + +"I'm sorry, too, I didn't mean to fight with you." + +They hugged and picked up the pieces of the board. They decided to share their imaginations and make a new story. + +"Maybe this is a mountain and a castle, and this is a river and a moat," Tim said. + +"Maybe we are explorers and knights, and we have to find a treasure and save a princess," Lily said. + +They smiled and nodded. They put the board back together and played happily. They learned to respect and enjoy each other's imaginations. +Lily was a daughter who liked flowers. She liked to see them bloom in the garden. She liked to smell them and touch them. She liked to give them to her mom and dad. + +One day, Lily saw a new flower in the garden. It was big and red and shiny. It looked very interesting. Lily wanted to see it closer. She ran to the flower and said, "Hello, flower. You are so pretty. Can I smell you?" + +But the flower was not a nice flower. It was a mean flower. It had sharp teeth and a long tongue. When Lily came near, it snapped at her and bit her nose. It hurt a lot. Lily screamed and cried. She ran back to her mom and dad. + +Mom and dad were very scared. They saw the blood on Lily's nose and the flower in the garden. They knew it was a bad flower. They called the doctor and the gardener. They took Lily to the hospital and the gardener took the flower away. + +Lily had to stay in the hospital for a long time. She had to get stitches and medicine. She did not like the hospital. She missed her mom and dad and her flowers. She was very sad. She wished she never saw the bad flower. She learned to be careful with new things. She hoped to see nice flowers again. +Tom and Lily were having breakfast. They liked toast with butter and jam. Tom was older than Lily and he liked to tease her. He took her toast and said, "This is mine now. You are too slow. You can have this." He gave her a crusty piece of bread. + +Lily was angry and sad. She said, "That is not fair. Give me back my toast. You are mean and filthy." She pointed at his face, which had jam and butter on it. + +Tom laughed and said, "No, I won't. You are a baby. You can't have toast. You can only have milk." He took a big bite of her toast and made a loud noise. + +Lily cried and said, "Mommy, mommy, Tom is teasing me. He took my toast and gave me bread. He is filthy and mean." + +Mommy heard Lily and came to the kitchen. She saw Tom with his mouth full of toast and Lily with her bread. She said, "Tom, that is not nice. You should share with your sister. She is younger than you. You should be kind and gentle. And look at your face. You are filthy. Go and wash it now." + +Tom felt ashamed and sorry. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was just joking. Here, you can have your toast back. And I'm sorry, mommy. I will wash my face." + +Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, Tom. I forgive you. You can have some of my toast too. And thank you, mommy. You are the best." + +Mommy hugged them and said, "I love you both. Now, let's finish our breakfast and have a good day." +Tim and his dog Spot went to the park. Spot was a big dog, but he did not know how to behave. He ran and barked and pulled on the leash. Tim tried to teach him to sit and stay and heel, but Spot did not listen. + +"Spot, heel!" Tim said. "You have to walk next to me, not in front of me. You are a good dog, but you need to learn." + +Spot looked at Tim with his big brown eyes, but he did not heel. He saw a squirrel and ran after it. He dragged Tim along the path and into the woods. Tim was scared and angry. + +"Spot, stop!" Tim shouted. "You are a bad dog! You are making me fall and hurt myself. Come back here!" + +Spot did not stop. He chased the squirrel until he lost sight of it. Then he saw something shiny and round in the dirt. He dug it out with his paws and sniffed it. It was a coin, but not like the ones Tim had. It was old and rusty and had strange marks on it. Spot did not know what it was, but he liked it. He picked it up with his mouth and ran back to Tim. + +Tim was sitting on a stump, crying. He had scraped his knees and elbows and lost his hat. He was worried that his mom would be mad at him. He heard Spot coming and looked up. + +"Spot, where have you been?" Tim asked. "You are a very bad dog. You made me lose my way and get hurt. What do you have in your mouth?" + +Spot wagged his tail and dropped the coin at Tim's feet. He licked Tim's face and barked. He wanted Tim to be happy and play with him. + +Tim picked up the coin and looked at it. He did not recognize it, but he thought it was pretty. He wondered where it came from and how old it was. He felt a little better and smiled at Spot. + +"Spot, what is this?" Tim asked. "Did you find it in the woods? It looks ancient. Maybe it belongs to a pirate or a king. You are a very clever dog. You found a treasure." + +Spot barked again and nuzzled Tim's hand. He was glad that Tim was not mad at him anymore. He hoped that Tim would teach him more things, like how to heel and sit and stay. He wanted to learn and be a good dog. He loved Tim and Tim loved him. They were best friends. +Lily and Ben lived on a farm with their mom and dad. They had many animals, but their favorite was Daisy, the cow. Daisy was huge and had black and white spots. She gave them milk every day and liked to be petted. + +One day, mom and dad told Lily and Ben that they had to sell Daisy. They said they needed money to buy food and clothes and fix the house. Lily and Ben were very sad. They did not want to lose their friend. + +"Please, mom, please, dad, don't sell Daisy," they begged. "We love her so much. She is part of our family." + +Mom and dad hugged them and said, "We know, sweeties, we love her too. But we have no choice. We have to sell her to a nice farmer who will take good care of her. He has a big field and many other cows for her to play with. She will be happy there." + +Lily and Ben cried and hugged Daisy. They said goodbye and thanked her for being their friend. They gave her some carrots and apples as a treat. Daisy mooed and licked their faces. + +The next day, the nice farmer came with his truck. He paid mom and dad and loaded Daisy on the truck. Lily and Ben waved and shouted, "Bye, Daisy, we will miss you. Be good and have fun." + +Daisy mooed and looked at them with her big brown eyes. She was sad too, but she knew they loved her. She hoped to see them again someday. She was going to a new home, but she would never forget her old one. +Lily and Tom are eager to play with the new toy train. It is shiny and metal and makes a loud noise when it moves. They run to the living room and see the train on the table. + +"Can we play with it, Mom?" Lily asks. + +"Yes, but be careful. It is not a toy for little kids. It has sharp edges and wires. And don't touch the plug, it can hurt you," Mom says. + +Lily and Tom nod and climb on the chairs. They take turns to push the button and hear the train go. They laugh and clap as the train goes faster and faster. + +"Let me try, let me try!" Tom says. He grabs the button from Lily and pushes it hard. The train jumps off the track and falls on the floor. Lily and Tom hear a loud bang and see sparks fly. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom cries. He has touched the plug and felt a shock. He drops the button and holds his hand. + +Mom hears the noise and runs to the living room. She sees the train broken and Tom crying. She picks him up and hugs him. + +"Tom, are you okay? What happened?" Mom asks. + +"Lily and I were playing with the train and it broke and I touched the plug and it hurt me," Tom says. + +Mom looks at Lily and sees her scared and sad. She shakes her head and sighs. + +"You two were very naughty. You did not listen to me. You could have been hurt badly. The train is not a toy for little kids. It is a toy for Dad. He will be very angry when he sees what you did. You are in big trouble," Mom says. + +Lily and Tom feel sorry and ashamed. They wish they had not played with the train. They know they have ruined Dad's toy and made Mom unhappy. They have no more fun today. +Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play with balls. They have a task. They want to roll the balls into a big box. The box is far away. The task is tough. + +They take turns to roll the balls. Ben rolls a red ball. It goes fast. It goes into the box. "Yay!" Ben says. "I did it!" Lily rolls a blue ball. It goes slow. It stops before the box. "Oh no!" Lily says. "I did not do it!" + +They try again. Ben rolls a green ball. It goes fast. It goes into the box. "Yay!" Ben says. "I did it again!" Lily rolls a yellow ball. It goes slow. It stops before the box. "Oh no!" Lily says. "I did not do it again!" + +They try one more time. Ben rolls a purple ball. It goes fast. It goes into the box. "Yay!" Ben says. "I did it three times!" Lily rolls a pink ball. It goes slow. It stops before the box. "Oh no!" Lily says. "I did not do it three times!" + +Ben is happy. He has three balls in the box. Lily is sad. She has no balls in the box. Ben does not share his balls with Lily. He says, "I am better than you. You are bad at rolling balls. You are not my friend." Lily cries. She runs away. Ben is alone. He has no friend. The end. +Lila was sad. She wanted to play with her friend Mia, but Mia was sick. Lila's mom said she could not go to Mia's house because she could catch the germs. Lila did not like germs. They made her feel bad. + +Lila had an idea. She asked her mom if she could draw a picture for Mia. Her mom said yes, that was a good idea. Lila got her crayons and paper and drew a big heart with flowers and stars. She wrote "I miss you" on the heart. She asked her mom to help her write "Lila" on the bottom. + +Lila's mom said they could not go to Mia's house, but they could send the picture to Mia. She said they could use the phone to take a photo of the picture and send it as a message. Lila liked that idea. She smiled and said thank you to her mom. + +Lila's mom took the photo and sent it to Mia's mom. She said "Lila made this for Mia. She hopes Mia feels better soon." Mia's mom replied "That is so sweet of Lila. Mia will love it. Thank you for being compassionate." + +Lila and Mia's moms talked on the phone for a while. They said they hoped their girls could play together soon. Lila and Mia saw the messages on the phone and smiled. They felt happy to have each other as friends. +Lily and Max were at the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. They saw some fish and crabs and shells. They were having fun. + +"Look, mom, a big boat!" Max said, pointing to the horizon. "Can we go on it?" + +"Maybe another day, sweetie," mom said. "That boat is for people who want to see sharks." + +"Sharks?" Lily asked. "What are sharks?" + +"Sharks are big fish with sharp teeth," dad said. "They live in the deep water and sometimes they come close to the boat. But don't worry, they can't hurt us. The boat has a cage that keeps us safe." + +"I want to see sharks!" Max said. "They sound cool!" + +"Me too!" Lily said. "Can we go, please?" + +Mom and dad looked at each other and smiled. They decided to surprise their kids and bought tickets for the boat. They told them they were going on a special adventure. + +Lily and Max were excited. They put on their life jackets and climbed on the boat. They saw other people with cameras and binoculars. They heard the captain say, "Welcome aboard, everyone! We are going to see some amazing sharks today!" + +The boat sailed for a while and then stopped. The captain said, "We are here! This is where the sharks like to hang out. Who wants to go in the cage and see them up close?" + +Lily and Max raised their hands. They wanted to go. Mom and dad went with them. They followed the crew to the cage. The cage was made of metal and had bars and windows. It looked like a big box. + +The crew lowered the cage into the water. Lily and Max looked out the windows. They saw blue and green and bubbles. They saw fish and seaweed and rocks. They waited for the sharks. + +Suddenly, they saw a shadow. It was big and dark and fast. It came closer and closer. It was a shark! It had a long body and a fin and a tail. It had open eyes and an open mouth. It had many teeth. It looked scary. + +Lily and Max gasped. They felt scared and curious at the same time. They pressed their faces against the windows. They saw the shark swim around the cage. It looked at them. It bumped the cage. It bit the cage. + +Lily and Max screamed. They hugged mom and dad. They wanted to go back to the boat. They wanted to go back to the beach. They did not like sharks anymore. + +The crew heard them and pulled the cage up. They helped them out of the cage. They asked them if they were okay. They said they were brave. + +Lily and Max nodded. They were okay. They were brave. But they did not want to see sharks again. They learned their lesson. + +They went back to the boat. They went back to the beach. They played in the sand and splashed in the water. They saw some fish and crabs and shells. They were happy. +Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play dress-up. They had many costumes in their big box. One day, they wanted to act like superheroes. Anna put on a red cape and a mask. Ben put on a blue suit and a belt. He saw a zip on the belt and pulled it. + +"Wow, look at this!" Ben said. "It has a button and a light. Maybe it is a super gadget." + +Anna was curious. She came closer to see. "Can I try it?" she asked. + +"No, it is mine. I found it first. Go away!" Ben said. He pushed Anna and made her fall. + +Anna was hurt and sad. She started to cry. "You are mean, Ben. You are not a superhero. You are a villain." + +Ben felt troubled. He did not want to make Anna cry. He did not want to be a villain. He looked at the belt again. He wondered what the button did. He pressed it. + +Suddenly, a loud noise came from the belt. Smoke and sparks flew out. Ben was scared. He dropped the belt and ran to Anna. + +"I am sorry, Anna. I am sorry. I did not know what the belt did. It was not a super gadget. It was a bad thing. Are you okay?" Ben said. + +Anna stopped crying. She saw that Ben was sorry. She saw that he was scared too. She hugged him. "I am okay, Ben. I am okay. I forgive you. You are not a villain. You are my brother." + +They threw away the belt and took off their costumes. They decided to play something else. They learned that acting like superheroes was not as fun as being kind and caring. They learned that sharing and saying sorry were super powers too. +Tim and Lily were playing in the park with their mom. They liked to slide, swing, and climb on the equipment. They also liked to look at the birds, flowers, and bugs. + +One day, they saw a big truck near the equipment. It had a long arm with a big ball at the end. Tim and Lily were curious. They ran to the truck and pointed at it. + +"Mom, what is that?" Tim asked. + +"That is a wrecking ball, Tim. It can break things very hard," mom said. + +"Why is it here, mom?" Lily asked. + +"It is here to break the old equipment, Lily. They will make new equipment for you to play on," mom said. + +Tim and Lily felt sad. They liked the old equipment. They did not want it to break. + +"Please, mom, can we stop them?" Tim begged. + +"Please, mom, can we keep the old equipment?" Lily pleaded. + +Mom shook her head. She hugged Tim and Lily. + +"I'm sorry, Tim and Lily, but we can't stop them. The old equipment is not safe anymore. It has cracks, rust, and splinters. The new equipment will be better, I promise. It will have more colors, shapes, and fun things to do. You will like it, too," mom said. + +Tim and Lily were not convinced. They were persistent. They ran to the truck and shouted. + +"Stop, stop, don't break the equipment! We like it, we want it, don't take it away!" they cried. + +The truck driver heard them. He looked at them and smiled. + +"Hello, kids, I'm sorry, but I have to do my job. The equipment is old and broken. It needs to go. Don't worry, the new equipment will be here soon. It will be awesome. You will love it," he said. + +He waved at them and started the truck. The wrecking ball swung in the air and hit the equipment. Tim and Lily watched in horror as the equipment crumbled and fell. They covered their ears and eyes. They felt angry and sad. + +Mom came to them and held them. She kissed their heads and wiped their tears. + +"I know, Tim and Lily, I know. It's hard to say goodbye to something you like. But sometimes, things have to change. The old equipment had a good time with you, but now it's time for it to rest. The new equipment will be here soon, and it will have a good time with you, too. It will be different, but it will be fun. Trust me, okay?" mom said. + +Tim and Lily nodded slowly. They still felt sad, but they also felt curious. They wondered what the new equipment would look like. They hoped it would be fun. They decided to give it a chance. They hugged mom and thanked her. + +"Okay, mom, we trust you. We will try the new equipment. But we will always remember the old equipment. We will miss it," they said. + +Mom smiled and squeezed them. + +"I'm proud of you, Tim and Lily. You are brave and kind. You will always remember the old equipment, and so will I. But you will also make new memories with the new equipment. And you will always have each other. Come on, let's go home and have some ice cream. How does that sound?" mom said. + +Tim and Lily smiled and cheered. + +"Yay, ice cream! Let's go, mom!" they said. + +They walked away from the park, holding mom's hands. They looked back at the truck and the wrecking ball. They waved goodbye to the old equipment. They said hello to the new equipment. They were ready for a new adventure. +Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play in the park with their ball. But they have to go home soon. Mom said they have to be back by four o'clock. That is their time. + +"Look, Tom, the sun is high in the sky. We have to go home soon," Lily says. + +"But I want to play more. We can run fast. We can manage to get home in time," Tom says. + +He kicks the ball high in the air. He runs after it. Lily runs after him. + +But the ball goes too high. It flies over the fence. It lands in the street. + +"Oh no, our ball!" Lily cries. + +They run to the fence. They look at the street. There are many cars. They are big and loud. They go fast. + +"How can we get our ball?" Tom asks. + +"We can't. It is too dangerous. We have to leave it. We have to go home. Mom will be worried," Lily says. + +She takes Tom's hand. They walk away from the fence. They are sad. + +They see a man. He is wearing a blue uniform. He has a badge. He is a police officer. + +He sees the twins. He sees the ball in the street. + +"Hello, kids. Are you lost?" he asks. + +"No, sir. We are going home. But we lost our ball. It is in the street. We can't get it," Lily says. + +The police officer smiles. He walks to the street. He stops the cars. He picks up the ball. He brings it back to the twins. + +"Here you go, kids. Your ball is safe. But you have to be careful. Don't play near the street. It is not safe," he says. + +"Thank you, sir. You are very kind. We will be careful. We will go home now," Tom says. + +The twins hug the police officer. They take their ball. They run home. They are happy. + +They manage to get home in time. Mom is waiting for them. She hugs them. She gives them cookies. She is proud of them. + +They tell her about their adventure.

He had a hat with wings on it. He was a pilot. Tim smiled and said: "Hello, Mr. Pilot. I like your plane. Can I see it?" + +The pilot smiled back and said: "Hello, little boy. I'm glad you like my plane. It's over there. Do you want to come with me and see it?" + +Tim nodded and followed the pilot. He saw a shiny red plane with a star on it. It was very cool. The pilot opened the door and said: "Do you want to sit inside?" + +Tim gasped and said: "Yes, please!" + +The pilot helped Tim climb into the plane. He showed him the buttons and the levers and the wheel. He said: "This is how you fly the plane. You are a very lucky boy. Not many people get to sit in a real plane." + +Tim felt very happy.

"Can I help you?" + +"Sure, you can make the windows!" Lily said. + +They worked together, making the castle bigger and prettier. They were having fun. + +But then, a big dog came running to them. It was barking and wagging its tail. It saw the castle and thought it was a toy. It jumped on it and started to dig with its paws. + +"Hey, stop that!" Lily shouted. "That's our castle!" + +But the dog did not listen. It ruined the castle in seconds. It knocked down the towers and the walls. It made the door and the windows disappear. It scattered the sand everywhere. + +Lily and Tom were very sad. They cried and hugged each other. They did not understand why the dog did that.

Don't you like it?" + +Lily said, "I'm sorry, Tom, but I don't like radishes. They make my mouth hurt. I appreciate your gift, but I wish you had asked me what I like first." + +Tom felt sad. He realized he had made a mistake. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I did not know you don't like radishes. I thought you would be happy to see my radish. I wanted to be a successful gardener and a good friend." + +Lily said, "You are a successful gardener and a good friend, Tom. You worked hard and grew a nice radish. But next time, you should ask me what I like before you mail me something. Maybe I can mail you something you like too." + +Tom said, "That sounds good, Lily. What do you like to grow in your garden?" + +Lily said, "I like to grow carrots. They are sweet and crunchy. Do you like carrots?" + +Tom said, "I love carrots. They are my favorite. Can you mail me a carrot?" + +Lily said, "Sure, Tom. I will mail you a carrot. But first, let me eat this radish. Maybe it is not so bad after all." + +They both laughed and thanked each other.

I hurt my arm, and I had to go to the doctor. He put this thing on my arm, and he said I have to be careful. I came back to get my ball, but you took it," Sam said. + +Sara and Ben felt bad. They looked at each other, and they felt the heat in their faces. They knew they did something wrong. + +"We're sorry, Sam. We didn't know it was your ball. We thought it was normal to take things we like. But we see now that it's not. It's not nice to take things that belong to someone else. Here, you can have your ball back," Sara said, giving the ball to Sam. + +"Thank you, Sara. And thank you, Ben. You are very kind. Do you want to play with me? We can share the ball, and we can be friends," Sam said, smiling. + +Sara and Ben nodded. They became friends with Sam, and they played with the ball together.

She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I just wanted to collect the lion music. I thought it would be fun. But it was not. It was scary and bad. I will never buy music without asking you again. Please forgive me, mom." + +Her mom sighed and said, "I forgive you, Lily. But you have to learn to listen to me and be careful. Music is a wonderful thing, but not all music is good for you. You have to be smart and choose music that makes you happy and safe. And you have to respect your things and your money. Do you understand?" + +Lily nodded and said, "I understand, mom. I love you, mom." + +Her mom smiled and said, "I love you too, Lily. Now let's go and find some nice music to play. How about some songs about flowers and birds?" + +Lily agreed and said, "Yes, mom.
