Now he wanted to try looking inside this weird book! +Timmy was walking by the grocery store. Every time he passed it he would feel sad. He hated how strong the people were in there. + +One day, Timmy decided to go in and see for himself. To his surprise, the people in the grocery store were kind and friendly.

He was very sad. + +Then, his best friend Joe came over. Joe asked him why he was so sad. Jake told him about his plan to escape. Joe smiled and said, "That's a good plan. I can help you. I know how to make a ladder out of cereal boxes!" + +Jake was surprised and asked, "Are you serious?" Joe nodded and said, "Yes! The boxes are available and I think we can make a ladder that is long enough for you to escape." + +So, Jake and Joe got to work. They filled the pantry with cereal boxes, one on top of the other. Slowly, the ladder started taking shape. When it was finished, it was tall enough for Jake to escape through the window. + +He hugged Joe and said, "Thank you! My escape plan worked!" + +And they both lived happily ever after. +One day, Bob and Sarah were walking in a park. Bob looked at the trees and the flowers, and he smiled. He was so happy.

They decided to leave the bags by the door, and then they left. + +Suddenly, the police arrived. Bob and Sarah were very scared. It turned out the house was owned by a thief, and the two bags of clothes were the thief's stolen goods. + +The moral value of the story is: think twice before doing something. It's better to be safe than sorry. +Once upon a time, there was a very clever little boy, named Jack. One day, he was hunting in the forest with his family when he saw something very strange! It was a mixer, and it had appeared in the middle of the woods. + +Jack and his family were very surprised and curious, so they decided to check it out.

I'm so glad we prepared for this." + +Sasha agreed and began letting her excitement run wild as they explored the stadium together. +Once upon a time there was a little boy named Tom. Tom was very curious, and he always wanted to ask questions. One day he was outside and saw something that was very ugly. It was a hot day, and it didn't look like a nice creature. + +Tom asked his mom, "What is that?" +His mom replied, "That's a turtle, Tom." +Tom was surprised and asked, "But why is it so ugly?" +His mom sighed and said, "Some creatures are born a little different. That's okay." + +Tom still didn't understand, so he decided to ask the turtle why it was so ugly. He walked over and said, "Hello there, turtle. Why are you so ugly?" + +The turtle was a bit taken aback, but eventually replied, "Well, I'm not really… I'm just a little different." Tom was confused. He thought to himself, "What does that mean?" + +Tom's mom gently placed her hand on his shoulder and said, "You know, Tom, it's okay to be different. Everyone is unique in their own way."

Take care!" +Once upon a time, there was a little duck who was scared of the water, but wanted to be able to dive in and swim like his friends.

He was so happy to see that he was able to dive! He waved to his friends, who were watching from the bank, and splashed in the water. + +He was so excited that he wanted to keep trying. But just then he heard the sound of the farmer who was approaching the barn. The little duck became scared, so he stopped practicing and flew away. + +Afterwards, the little duck realised that with courage and a little help from his friends, he could conquer anything.

You can achieve anything with courage and a little help from your friends. +Once upon a time there was a playful young bunny. He was out and about hopping around, looking for new places to explore.

Please, help me!" the voice said. + +Startled, Benny asked, "Who said that?" + +The voice replied, "I'm trapped in this hairy knot. Would you help me out?" + +Benny looked closer and he saw a small mouse. The mouse must have been stuck in the knot for a long time.

As Benny watched the mouse scurry away, he was filled with joy knowing he had helped another creature. +Tom was a wealthy man.

To his surprise there was no gold, but instead, a small baby turtle. + +The boy was very happy and knew it was an even better treasure.

He thanked his lucky stars that day and kept dreaming of all the good he could do in the world. +Once there were two twin sisters, Carla and Maria. One day, the two girls went outside to play.

She thought about how fun it would be to join them and help build the mountain. + +Just then, another kid spoke up. + +"Hey, why don't we mention the ice cave in the far woods? That would be awesome," said the little boy. + +The other kids looked at each other, and then started to laugh. One said, "That cave is too distant and scary for us. We'll never get there." + +But Lucy smiled.

She didn't understand what it meant. + +The old man smiled and said 'Yes, it's silly to try and climb the pine. It's too high and it's very dangerous. You could get hurt if you move any closer.' + +Sarah paused and thought about it. Finally, she smiled and nodded. 'I won't move any closer, I promise.' The old man smiled and Sarah skipped away to find something else to do. +Once there was a little girl who was shy. One day, she wanted to eat lunch with her friends.

He even took it to bed with him at night. It had become a very special friend for him. +Once upon a time there was a messy measure. It had lots of different parts and it was very hard to mind.

He mixed for a long time until he got tired. + +Suddenly, Peter heard a low growl. He looked around and saw a big dog standing near the fence. Peter became scared and hugged his mom tightly. + +“That’s just a mild threat,†said his mom with a comforting voice. + +Peter relaxed a little and watched the curious dog.

Can you help me find some?†Arthur looked around until he spotted an incredible source of oxygen on top of a hill. + +Arthur and the dragon worked together to get the oxygen and they both breathed it in.

What do you want to do with it?" + +Frank said, "I want it to remain here so I can come and play with my friends." His mum hugged him and said, "That sounds like a wonderful idea. You can come to your club anytime you want." + +Frank was very happy and he promised to remain in the club with his friends. They both waved goodbye and Frank smiled as he watched his mum go back into the house. He had a new secret place and he never wanted to leave. +Mum and Dad were so busy. They had to work in the garden all day but they did not have time to finish. Every day they worked so hard, attaching ropes and connecting pieces of wood together. "What are you making?" the little 3 year old boy asked. + +"We are making a well, dear," said Dad. "It will be big enough for us to jump into and will be full of water that is cool and refreshing. That way we can keep cool on hot days!" + +The little boy knew Dad was very busy so he ran off, thinking about the well all day. The next day, he ran to the garden to find Dad already there. He watched for a bit and then fetch his bucket. The little boy started filling the bucket with dirt and stones and carrying them over, helping his Dad. + +The days went by and gradually, the well was getting bigger, thanks to the little boy.

One day when it was raining, Tommy wanted to go outside. + +Mum said, "Tommy, you must stay indoors and be obedient". +Tommy said, "But I want to go outside and splash in the rain". + +Mum shook her head and said, "No, Tommy. You must stay indoors. I'll put a screen up so you can look out and splish and splash at the raindrops". + +Tommy was excited. He ran to the window and put his hands up to the screen. He said, "Mum, can I splash the screen with my little hands?". + +Mum said, "Yes, Tommy, but be careful and stay obedient". + +Tommy happily splashed the screen.

So when they finally got to meet up, they were eager to introduce themselves. + +Bob smiled at Rose and said, "Hi, I'm Bob." Rose smiled back with a shy nod and said, "Hi, I'm Rose." They both looked a bit nervous and the room was filled with an awkward silence. + +Suddenly, Bob realized why Rose seemed so troubled. He knew her parents had just been in an argument and she must have been worried about it. He didn't want her to feel uncomfortable, so Bob said some funny jokes to make her smile. + +Rose soon started to laugh and the troubled silence was replaced with cheerful conversations. As the hours flew by, Bob and Rose talked about all kinds of topics and soon became best friends.

She smiled and shouted, "Hello little bird! Can you send someone to fix the slide?" + +The bird nodded and flew away. A few minutes later, a man with a toolbox appeared. He fixed the slide and then Marian thanked him. She could finally go down the slide again! She went up the stairs and sat on the top. + +Marian giggled and sent herself down the slide. She had a lot of fun and didn't want to stop. She went down again and again, until the sun began to set. + +Marian felt happy and thanked the little bird for sending the man to make her slide not broken anymore. +Once upon a time, Billy was playing outside on a sunny day. He had a special toy that was made of wood. It was rare, because it had two sides that moved when you pushed it. + +Billy was so happy that he giggled and said “Slide!†He laughed as he pushed the toy around, making it slide on the ground. He moved it back and forth, in circles, and in loops. He even jumped off it and said, “Ready, set, go!†+ +Then, his mom walked out from the house and said, “Oh my, what a rare wooden toy! Where did you find it?†+ +Billy said, “I found it on a slide!†His mom smiled and said, “Well, let’s go find some more slides for you to play on!†+ +And so, Billy and his mom went on a search for more slides. At the end of the day, Billy was so tired but so happy too, having sliding down lots and lots of special slides. +Once there was a man. He loved to jump. He jumped high and he jumped low. He jumped over rocks and he jumped on grass. He jumped everywhere and he was happy. + +One day, the man found a big tree. He looked up into the tree and he wanted to jump. So he did. He jumped as high as he could and he was very close to the top. He was so proud. + +But then he felt something strange. He looked down and saw he was not safe. The tree was very tall, and the ground was too far away. The man was scared. + +He started to cry, but then he heard a voice from the sky. It was his mom. She said to him, "Jump, my son. I will catch you." + +So the man jumped. His mom's arms were open and she caught him. He felt safe. +Once upon a time, there was a strong boy named Sam. One day he looked up at the sky and saw that it was very bright. He wanted to explore. + +He asked his mom, "Can I go outside and play?" + +Mama said, "Yes, but don't go too far. And be careful." + +Sam was so excited, he ran outside and started to explore. He went all the way to the top of the hill. From up there he could see the whole town. He felt so strong! + +Suddenly, a dark cloud came and spoiled the sky. Sam's mom heard the thunder and called him inside. He didn't want to go, but he knew he had to be safe. He ran inside and hugged his mama. + +Mama said, "I'm glad you listened and came inside. You are so strong. We will wait until the sky clears again before you go outside." + +Sam nodded and hugged his mama tightly. He knew that his mama would always keep him safe. +John looked up at the big hill. He wanted to climb it, but he was scared. He was only a little kid and the hill was very high! + +Then he thought of an idea. + +"Maybe if I use my brain, I can find a way to get up there!" John exclaimed. + +John looked around and he saw a pretty tree with lots of branches. A smile spread across John's face. He could climb the tree and then climb the hill from there! + +John walked to the tree and he put his hands on one of its branches. He started to climb, but it was much harder than he thought it would be. He used all of his strength and his best climbing brain to get to the top of the tree. + +When he reached the top, John looked at the hill and it seemed much easier to climb from there. Taking another deep breath, he started climbing the hill. + +John climbed and climbed until he reached the top. He was exhausted! But he had made it! John was so proud of himself that he did a little happy dance at the top of the hill. He looked back down at the tree and he thought it was so pretty. + +"I did it!" John said with a smile. +Billy went to the park with his family one day. As they walked, Billy noticed a turkey in the field. It was very big and brown and had a long tail.

Billy watched it, amazed at how it soared so gracefully in the sky. + +Billy smiled as he saw it go and waved goodbye. He was happy he got to notice such a beautiful turkey. +The parade was about to begin. All the children were excited and could hardly wait to join in.

The parade has already started," said his mother. + +Tom was angry and began to cry. He wanted to join the parade so badly but his mother wouldn't let him. + +Just then, some small birds flew nearby and began to dance around Tom. One of them said, "Come! Join us! Together, we will make our own parade!" + +Tom cheered up and thanked the birds, who then flew away. He and his mother then began walking. They made a little parade, waving their arms and singing song together. Everyone who saw their parade smiled. + +Tom was no longer sad. That day, he had learned that the best things can't be delayed. +Once upon a time, there was a famous dog named Monty. He had a very special scarf that made him feel special and brave. Monty had a great mission — he was determined to find a way to solve a big problem. + +Every day, Monty trotted around the town, searching for clues that might help. When he saw his friends, they would always try to encourage him. + +One day, while out on his journey, Monty came across an old man. He was wearing the same scarf as Monty, who was taken aback. + +The old man asked Monty if he was trying to solve the same problem as he was. When Monty nodded, the old man said, "Let's work together and see what we can do". + +Monty was so excited to have found a partner. Together, they spent days and nights trying to find a solution. Working together, and using his famous scarf as a symbol of their teamwork, they were eventually able to solve the big problem. + +As the days passed, more and more people heard about their accomplishment. The scarf became a symbol of their partnership and the courage that it took to find a solution. Soon, Monty and the old man had become quite famous. + +The moral of the story is that even the most difficult problems can be solved with cooperation and courage. +A boy named John was walking in the jungle with his mom. He saw some tall trees and thought he saw something between them. He asked his mom "What is that?". She said, "I guess it's a lion". John was so excited and began to run towards the trees. When he got closer, he saw the lion and realized it was very big and heavy. + +John said to his mom, "Wow, the lion is very heavy". His mom replied, "Yes, it is. It looks like it must weigh a lot". + +John knew he had to be careful and didn't want to get too close. He said, "Mom, let's not get too close to the lion". His mom agreed and they walked away until they were a safe distance away. + +John and his mom had a good time guessing what kind of animals they'd see in the jungle and looking at the lion without getting too close. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Sarah.

Inside the box, there was a tiny toy car. + +"Teddy, why have you disturbed me?" Sarah asked with a puzzled look on her face. + +Teddy waved his tiny paws in the air and said, "I just wanted to show you my new toy car! I found it in my house and I wanted to play with it!" + +Sarah smiled, happy that Teddy wasn't making any mischief. She gave him a hug and took the car for a spin around the room.

She wanted to have a new dress for the summer, so she asked her mother to take her to the shop. + +As soon as she got to the shop, she saw she had lots of choices. Anna looked around and saw a pretty blue dress. She showed it to her mom and asked if they could buy it. + +But her mother said no. She told Anna that the dress was too expensive and they didn’t have enough money. Anna started to cry, but her mother had an idea. + +She said, "Let’s design your own dress. That way you can get exactly what you want.†Anna liked this idea, so she and her mother began to design a new dress. + +It was hard work, but eventually Anna had the perfect dress. It was just the way she wanted it. + +Anna was so happy but her mother was not. She thought the dress was too selfishly designed. Nevertheless, Anna had her new dress for the summer and that is what matters most. +John and his grandpa were at the beach. John saw an old cable lying on the sand and so he went to pick it up.Grandpa said, "That looks like an old hairy cable. What do you think you could do with it?" +John looked closely at the cable. "I think I can squeeze it!" +Grandpa smiled and said, "Shall we see if it works?" +John grabbed the cable tight and started to squeeze it. Suddenly, out of the cable came an enormous hairy spider! John screamed, "Grandpa! A spider!" +Grandpa chuckled and said, "Don't worry, he's not dangerous. He just wanted to get out from the cable." +John took a few deep breaths and said, "Okay, let's put him back where he came from." +John and Grandpa carefully put the spider back into the cable and watched him crawl away. "That was an adventure!" Grandpa said. +John smiled and agreed, "It sure was!" + +They had so much fun on the beach that day. +Once upon a time, there was a messy room. All of the toys were scattered around, and the clothes were everywhere. Suddenly, a toy rabbit vanished! Its owner, a young girl, was very surprised. + +"Where did it go?", she said. + +The girl's mum was nearby and heard her. She walked into the room and told the girl the truth. + +"Sometimes things just vanish, dear. But you can always look for it." + +The girl thought for a moment, and then started to look around the room. She checked under the bed, in the closet and under the pillow. She finally found the rabbit hiding behind the curtains. + +"Ah-ha!", she said. + +She was happy to have found her toy, and quickly gave it a big hug.

Suddenly, a giant appeared and spoke in a loud, deep voice. "That toy belongs to me!" Bob was scared and started crying. "Please don't take it!" he pleaded. + +The giant didn't listen. He picked up the toy and started for the stairs. "That toy belongs to me. If you want it, you'll have to fight me for it!" The giant spoke in a menacing tone. + +Bob was very scared. He knew he couldn't fight the giant and he gave up. "I guess I'm hungry and all alone," Bob said to himself. + +The moral of this story is that you should never underestimate a challenge, even if it appears too hard to overcome. Remember that no matter how small or impossible a challenge may seem, if you truly want something, you should never give up and always fight for it. +One day, two friends, Tom and Hannah, were playing together.

Jack was very surprised. + +Kitty: I’m Dr. Kitty and I can show you something even tastier. If you follow me, I will take you to a place of hope. + +Jack was very intrigued by the kitty’s offer and was excited to follow her. He followed Dr. Kitty out of the lab and down the street.

So Jake got angry and replaced it with a big piece of wood. + +When his brother saw it, he was very upset. He started crying and ran away. Later, Jake realized how wrong it was to replace something he loved with something so bad. + +The moral value of the story is that it's wrong to replace something precious with something bad.

She was sad that her best friend had stolen from her. She felt let down and angry that Sammy had taken the pin. + +Sarah knew the only way to get her pin was to get it back from Sammy. She gathered up all of her courage and went to Sammy's house. She knocked on the door and, when Sammy answered, Sarah said firmly, "Give me back my pin!" + +Sammy's eyes widened and he sheepishly reached into his pocket.

He wanted to stay up and play, but he knew it was time to go to bed. + +Ben's stuffed bear was on the floor. Ben picked him up and kicked him across the room. "Stupid bear!" + +Mom was not happy. "Don't be so mean," she said. "That was a silly thing to do." + +Ben hung his head. He knew kicking the bear wasn't very nice. + +"Ben, it's time to go to bed now," Mom said. "I want you to say sorry to the bear before you go." + +So Ben walked over to the bear and said, "Sorry bear. I was silly and stupid." + +Mom smiled and hugged Ben. "It's okay, sweetheart," she said. She kissed Ben goodnight and tucked him in. + +And Ben went to sleep, feeling much better. +Once upon a time, there were two brothers, John and Joe.

There were blueberries everywhere! + +John and Joe shouted with joy and started picking the blueberries. The two brothers learned a moral: that together you can push even the biggest of hills. +Frank was tired.

Without warning, it began to scatter feathers everywhere. + +Tony and Frank ran away from the park, terrified. None of the fun games were able to cheer them up. Frank was still feeling tired, but this time it was because of the scary bird. +Once upon a time there were two friends. Their names were Lucy and Tom. Lucy was a 3-year-old girl and Tom was a squirrel. + +One day, Tom was feeling very hungry and he noticed a peanut on the ground. He looked around to see if anyone else was around. He saw Lucy and asked for the peanut. + +Lucy smiled and nodded. She said "Yes, you can have the peanut". + +Tom thanked her and he ate the peanut.

'Do you think your spear can protect you?' it asked. The man answered 'I trust my spear to keep me safe.' The monster laughed and said 'We'll see about and walked away. + +The man was very curious and he followed the monster. Suddenly, the ground started to shake. He looked up and saw a huge dragon! It had a long, spiky tail and sharp claws that glowed in the dark. The monster shouted, 'Let's see if you can beat this dragon with your spear!' + +The man steadied himself and held his spear firmly.

"Sweetheart, we can go anywhere you want. Don't forget that." + +The little girl smiled back and said, "Okay, Mama! Let's play pretend together!" And they did, running around the yard and making up stories until the sun went down. + +No matter how troubled the little girl felt, she also knew that she had a special place to go: her house, where she could pretend and even forget her troubles.

His mother shook her head and said, “You were being very careless - you shouldn’t be poking that bee!†+ +The boy didn’t understand why he shouldn’t be playing with the bee, so his mother explained, “Bees can sting and that would hurt you - so you must be careful.†+ +The boy nodded, and his mother gave him a glass of juice to reward him for being a good listener.

He jumped and shouted, trying to get its attention. + +"Tom, don't get too close!" his mom called out. + +Tom ignored her and chased the train. It was getting farther and farther away and he knew he wouldn't catch it. Suddenly, there was a loud, angry whistle. + +It was the train conductor!

Joe accepted his mum's answer and started to help her put all the food in the fridge. + +After the unpacking was finished, Joe's mum said, "Let's sit down and have tea. You look a bit weak". When Joe heard this, he looked at his mum and said, "That's because I'm not used to carrying so much weight". His mum said, "That's alright, sweetheart. You can rest now and the tea will give you more energy". Joe was very happy and content, and he thanked his mum for helping her unpack all the shopping bags. +One day, Simon and his mom went for a walk in the park.

Jane was a curious plant and she always wanted to explore the world around her. + +One day Jane decided to take a journey and find out what was beyond her garden. She hopped onto a tiny leaf and started to float away. + +As she was travelling, Jane encountered a river. She looked at the river but it was too wide and too deep. Jane struggled to find how to cross the river. Then she saw a little frog hopping on a lily pad. + +"Hello, frog!" Jane said. "I need to get across to the other side of the river". + +"I can help you," said the frog. "Hop on my back, and I will take you across". + +Together Jane and the frog crossed the river safely.

However, the sun started to go down and it was getting late. + +"Ann," her mommy said, "It is getting late. You have to stop painting now or you will miss your dinner." + +But Ann was very stubborn and kept painting. Her mommy had to gently take her away from her artwork so that she could eat dinner. Ann was very sad as she said goodbye to her painting, and she felt like she was missing something. + +The next day though, Ann was able to paint more, and this time she wasn't so stubborn. She knew that if she stayed up all night painting, she would miss out on too much! +Once upon a time there was a little girl named Lucy. She was only three years old and very curious.

Lucy was fascinated and stopped to admire them. Suddenly, she noticed a heavy blanket draped over a nearby tree branch. Lucy recognized it as a scarf, just like hers! + +Lucy approached the tree to get a closer look. She reached up and gently touched the scarf. It felt just like hers. She smiled and held it close. + +“Hello?†said a voice from behind. + +Lucy turned around to see an older woman. + +“Good morning, sweetheart!†she said. “I recognize that scarf. It was my mother’s. I hung it up here in memory of her.†+ +Lucy smiled, thanked the woman, and skipped away. She was so happy to have recognized the scarf and was thrilled to have met the woman as well.

They saw a huge rainbow in the sky. + +"Wow!" said Jane, looking up. + +Her dad smiled and nodded. "It's a very pretty rainbow, isn't it Jane?" + +Jane nodded. Suddenly, a bird landed beside her. He was very polite and bowed his head. + +"Hello, Little Bird," said Jane, politely. "Do you want to see the rainbow too?" + +The bird nodded. His little head bobbed up and down. + +"Come on then," said Jane's dad, "let's go and look at the rainbow together." + +So they all went to the rainbow. Jane was amazed. It was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen! Bright colours stretched across the sky, like a bridge over the clouds. + +The little bird was happy too. He smiled and hopped around in the grass. + +"Shall we fly up there?" Jane asked her dad, pointing to the rainbow. + +Her dad laughed and nodded. "Maybe some other time, Jane. For now, let's just enjoy the beauty of the rainbow from here." + +And they did. They looked up at the rainbow together, until the sun was low in the sky. Then it was time to go home.

Every day he looked forward to going to the park and swinging as high as he could. +One day, he went to the park with his mummy and saw a strange food there. It looked weird! +The little boy asked his mummy, "What is that weird food?" +Mummy explained that it was ice cream. +The little boy exclaimed, "Can I swing and eat the ice cream too!?" +Mummy smiled and said, "Sure, but make sure you don't spill it!" + +So the little boy excitedly started swinging and eating the delicious ice cream. He laughed and said, "Swinging and eating ice cream is so much fun!" +Jimmy was very excited. Today was his birthday, and he was going to get a special treat. He hoped it would be pasta, because he loved it. + +His mommy and daddy said it was time to go, so he gave them a hug and skipped to the car. He waited patiently in the back seat until they arrived. + +Jimmy reached the kitchen, and sure enough, there was a big plate of steaming, hot pasta. He could barely contain himself. He raced to the table and took his seat. + +"Happy Birthday woohoo!" his mommy cheered. + +"Yay!" Jimmy screamed, excitedly. + +He grabbed his fork and took a huge bite of the pasta. He savored the flavor and thanked his parents. + +"Now, enjoy this special treat! You deserve it!"

She rubbed some lotion on the baby’s back and head to make the baby feel better. + +Then Mama and the baby went on a fun adventure to the park. They saw ducks swimming in the pond and the sun was shining brightly in the sky. Mama and the baby laughed as they watched a funny dog playing fetch with its owner. + +Later that evening, Mama put the baby to bed. She gave the baby one last hug and kiss, and said “I love you and I always be here to comfort you.†The baby smiled and drifted off to sleep feeling happy and safe. +One day, a little girl was skipping outside in the rain. She jumped and hopped around, splashing in mud puddles. "This is so much fun!" She said. + +Suddenly, she noticed a strange puddle. It was very expensive looking. It was filled with gold coins! + +The little girl stopped her skipping and walked closer. She touched the puddle and scooped up the coins. "This is lots of money!" + +Just then, an old woman came outside. She said, "That puddle is for me! You must put back the coins." + +The girl put back all the coins, but she was sad. She wanted to keep them for herself. + +The old woman smiled. "To make it up to you," she said, "I will give you a special gift." + +The little girl was very happy. She thanked the old woman and then skipped away, a smile on her face. +Once there was a little girl named Lily who really wanted to try something new. Every day she would look around her house for something she could do differently. +One day she saw a vase on the table and thought it would be fun to try and move it. She held the vase with both hands and tried to lift it up. However, it was too heavy and she couldn't do it. + +"Mommy, come help me," said Lily. +Her Mommy came into the room, smiled and said, "Let me help you." +She took the vase and carefully moved it to a more comfortable spot. + +Lily beamed with joy. +"Thank you, Mommy," she said. She smiled and hugged her Mommy. + +From then on, every day Lily tried new things around the house.

He liked to watch the animals that visited his garden. One day, he noticed a mosquito buzzing around. He wanted to catch it so he held out his hand, but the mosquito kept ignoring him. + +Then he thought of a good idea. He found an old jar and put it on the ground. Then he sat back and waited. Slowly the mosquito flew into the jar. He quickly put the lid on and shouted "Gotcha!". + +The boy's mom heard him and came out to see what had happened. The little boy explained his plan and his mom was very impressed. She said "That was very smart and thoughtful of you, my son." + +The boy smiled and said "Yes, I just wanted to catch the mosquito and keep it as a pet!" + +His mom laughed and said "Well, that's very kind, but it's not a good idea to keep them as pets. Let's release it back into the wild." + +So, the boy took the lid off the jar and watched as the mosquito flew away. He waved goodbye and said "Goodbye, little mosquito!" + +The little boy had had an adventure and learned an important lesson - that it's not always a good idea to ignore nature. +Once there was a little girl named Sarah. She was three years old, and she loved to paint. + +One day Sarah wanted to paint something special.

He stopped and asked his mom if he could have it. + +"No, John," said his mom. "We can't keep it here. We have to return it to its owner." + +John was disappointed and asked, "But who is the owner?" + +His mom replied, "We don't know, but we can find out. Let's go home and ask our neighbors if they know who it belongs to." + +So, with that, the family went home. After asking around, they found out that the green TV belonged to their neighbor, Mr. Brown! + +The next day, John and his family returned the TV to Mr. Brown.
