+She felt sad. She thought the show was over. She thought she had ruined everything. But then she heard a voice. It was a friendly voice. It was one of her friends. He had picked up her teddy bear. He ran to her. He gave her the teddy bear. He helped her stand up. He said, "It's okay, Lily. You did great. You can still dance. Come on, let's finish the show."
+
+Lily smiled. She felt better. She hugged her friend. She hugged her teddy bear. She said, "Thank you, friend. You are very kind. Let's finish the show." She wiped her tears. She took her friend's hand. They went back to the stage. They spun and jumped and clapped. They had fun. They finished the show.
+
+The crowd clapped and cheered. Lily saw her mom and dad. They were proud and happy. They came to the stage. They hugged her and kissed her. They said, "You did great, Lily. You are a star. We love you." Lily was very happy. She loved to dance. She loved her friends. She loved her teddy bear. She loved her mom and dad. She had a big show today. She had a big smile.
+Lily was a lion cub who loved to chew. She chewed on sticks, leaves, rocks and even her own tail. She wanted to be a powerful lion like her mom and dad, who could chew big meals of meat and bones. But Lily was too small to hunt with them, so she had to stay with her aunt and cousins in the den.
+
+One day, Lily saw a rabbit hop by the den. She thought it would be a good meal for her, and she wanted to show her aunt and cousins how powerful she was. She sneaked out of the den and ran after the rabbit. The rabbit was fast and clever, and it zigzagged through the grass and bushes. Lily tried to catch it, but she could not.
+
+Soon, Lily was tired and hungry. She realized she was far from the den, and she did not know the way back. She started to cry. She wished she had stayed with her aunt and cousins, and chewed on sticks and leaves instead of chasing the rabbit.
+
+Suddenly, she heard a roar. It was her mom, who had heard her cry. She came running to Lily, and licked her face. She told Lily she was proud of her for trying to be a powerful lion, but she was also worried about her. She said Lily was still too young to hunt alone, and she needed to learn from her mom and dad first. She said chewing on sticks and leaves was good for Lily's teeth and muscles, and it would help her grow strong and healthy.
+
+Lily felt happy and safe. She hugged her mom, and thanked her for finding her. She said she was sorry for sneaking out of the den, and she would listen to her mom and dad from now on. Her mom smiled, and carried her back to the den. There, Lily found her dad, her aunt and her cousins waiting for her. They had brought a big meal of meat and bones for everyone. Lily chewed on a small piece, and felt powerful. She was glad to be a lion cub, and part of a loving family.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They like to run and slide and swing. They see a big dog with a ball in its mouth. The dog is brown and fluffy and friendly.
+
+"Can we play with the dog?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"OK, but we have to ask the owner first," Ben says.
+
+They run to the dog and its owner, who is sitting on a bench. They say hello and ask if they can play with the dog.
+
+"Sure, his name is Max. He loves to play fetch," the owner says. He throws the ball far away and Max runs after it.
+
+Lily and Ben run after Max, too. They want to catch the ball before him. But Max is very fast. He gets the ball and runs back to the owner. Lily and Ben are out of breath.
+
+"Wow, Max is so fast!" Lily says.
+
+"He is the fastest dog I ever saw," Ben says.
+
+They try to play fetch with Max again and again. But they never catch the ball before him. They realize that Max is faster than them. But they don't mind. They have fun playing with Max and his owner. They like the sight of Max's happy tail and tongue. They laugh and clap and hug Max. They make a new friend.
+Sara loves to play in the garden with her mom. They plant seeds and water them every day. Sara likes to watch the seeds grow into flowers. She likes the red ones and the yellow ones and the pink ones. She likes to smell them and touch them and give them names.
+
+One day, Sara and her mom go to visit grandma. Grandma lives far away, so they have to take a big car and drive for a long time. Sara is happy to see grandma, but she also misses her garden. She wonders if the flowers are lonely without her.
+
+Grandma has a surprise for Sara. She takes her to a big park with many flowers. Sara sees some flowers that look like her garden, and some that are new and different. She sees some that are very tall, and some that are very small. She runs and jumps and laughs with grandma.
+
+Sara finds a tall flower that is purple and white. She thinks it is very pretty and very special. She picks it and gives it to grandma. Grandma smiles and hugs Sara. She says thank you and tells Sara that she loves her.
+
+Sara feels happy and warm. She loves grandma and the park and the flowers. She still misses her garden, but she knows that her mom will take care of it until they come back. She knows that the flowers will wait for her and greet her with their colors and smells. She knows that she can always find beauty and joy in the world.
+Ben and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw a big pond with many ducks and swans. Ben and Lily liked to feed them bread crumbs.
+
+"Look, Lily, that swan is balancing on one leg!" Ben said, pointing to a white bird that stood on the water.
+
+"Why is it doing that?" Lily asked, curious.
+
+"Maybe it is resting, or maybe it is showing off," Ben said, shrugging.
+
+They threw some bread crumbs to the swan, but it did not move. It stayed on one leg, very still and patient.
+
+"Maybe it is waiting for something," Lily said, wondering.
+
+"Maybe it is waiting for a friend, or a snack, or a surprise," Ben said, smiling.
+
+They waited with the swan, hoping to see what it was waiting for. They were patient, too.
+
+After a while, they saw another swan swimming towards the first one. It was also white and beautiful. It came close to the first swan and touched its beak gently.
+
+"Look, Lily, they are kissing!" Ben said, excited.
+
+"They are friends!" Lily said, happy.
+
+The first swan lowered its leg and joined the second swan. They swam together, making soft sounds.
+
+Ben and Lily clapped their hands and cheered. They were glad they saw the swans' surprise.
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "You are very good at balancing, too. You balanced your curiosity and your patience. I am proud of you."
+
+Ben and Lily smiled and hugged Mom back. They loved the park, and the swans, and Mom.
+Anna and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Anna had a metal car that she liked very much. Ben had a fragile doll that he got from his grandma. They were having fun, but they also wanted to try each other's toys.
+
+"Can I play with your car, Anna?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, it's mine. You can't have it," Anna said.
+
+"Please, just for a little bit. I'll be careful," Ben said.
+
+"No, no, no. Go away," Anna said.
+
+Ben was sad and angry. He wanted to play with the car, but Anna was mean. He had an idea. He took his doll and ran to the kitchen. He saw a big box on the table. It had a label that said "Send to Grandma". Ben opened the box and put his doll inside. He thought that Anna would be sorry if she lost her car.
+
+He ran back to the living room and grabbed the car from Anna. Anna screamed and tried to get it back, but Ben was faster. He ran to the kitchen again and put the car in the box with the doll. He closed the box and taped it shut. He smiled and said, "Now you can't have your car, Anna. I'm sending it to Grandma."
+
+Anna followed him and saw what he did. She was shocked and furious. She cried and yelled, "No, no, no. Give me back my car. You're bad, Ben. You're very bad."
+
+But it was too late. Mom came in and saw the box. She didn't know what was inside. She said, "Oh, good. You're helping me with the mail. Thank you, Ben. Let's go to the post office and send this box to Grandma. She'll be happy to get a surprise from you."
+
+She picked up the box and took Ben with her. Anna was left alone, without her car and without her brother. She felt sad and lonely. She wished she had shared her car with Ben. She wished Ben had not sent her car away. She wished she could say sorry to Ben and Grandma. But she couldn't. She had lost her car and her friend. The end.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and catch it. But then a big dog came and took their ball. The dog ran away with the ball in its mouth. Sara and Ben were sad and angry.
+
+They chased the dog, but the dog was faster. The dog ran to a big house with a fence. The dog jumped over the fence and went inside. Sara and Ben could not follow the dog. They could only see the ball through the fence. They wanted their ball back.
+
+They saw a hole in the fence. It was small, but maybe they could fit. They crawled through the hole and entered the yard. They saw the dog lying on the grass with the ball. The dog was sleeping. They tiptoed towards the ball, hoping the dog would not wake up.
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. It was a song. The song came from the house. It was an enormous song. It was so loud that it hurt their ears. The dog woke up and barked. The dog saw Sara and Ben and ran towards them. Sara and Ben were scared.
+
+They grabbed the ball and ran back to the hole. They escaped from the dog and the song. They crawled through the hole and ran to the park. They were happy to have their ball again. They played with their ball and forgot about the dog and the song. They had fun.
+Anna and Ben like to play in the sand. They have a big bucket and a small shovel. They want to make a sand castle. They dig and dump and pat the sand. They make a deep hole and a high tower.
+
+But Sam does not like their sand castle. He is mean and angry. He kicks their bucket and breaks their tower. He laughs and runs away. Anna and Ben are sad and mad. They cry and shout.
+
+Then they see Lily. Lily is their friend. She has a big shovel and a big smile. She helps them fix their sand castle. She digs and dumps and pats the sand. She makes a deeper hole and a higher tower. She also makes a wall and a flag.
+
+Anna and Ben are happy and glad. They hug and thank Lily. They play and have fun. They complete their sand castle. It is the best sand castle ever. They are proud and happy. They do not care about Sam. He is mean and alone.
+Lily wanted to give her mom a present for her birthday. She had a big box of crayons and some paper. She drew a picture of her mom and her with a big heart. She was very proud of her picture.
+
+She looked for something to wrap her picture with. She saw a shiny paper in the closet. It was red and had stars on it. She thought it was pretty. She took the paper and tried to wrap her picture. But the paper was too big and too slippery. She cut the paper with scissors, but she cut too much. She taped the paper, but she used too much tape. Her picture looked messy and lumpy.
+
+She heard her mom coming home. She hid her present under the bed. She ran to hug her mom. "Happy birthday, Mommy!" she said. "I have a surprise for you!"
+
+Her mom smiled and kissed her. "Thank you, Lily. What is it?"
+
+Lily took her mom to her room. She showed her the present under the bed. "I made this for you, Mommy. I hope you like it."
+
+Her mom looked at the present. She saw the paper was torn and wrinkled. She saw the tape was sticking out. She saw a corner of the picture was showing. She guessed what it was. She smiled and hugged Lily. "I love it, Lily. It's the best present ever. Can I open it?"
+
+Lily nodded. She felt embarrassed. She thought her mom would not like her present. She thought she did a bad job of wrapping it.
+
+Her mom opened the present. She saw the picture of her and Lily with a big heart. She saw the crayons and the paper. She saw how hard Lily tried to make her happy. She felt happy and proud. She kissed Lily again. "This is the most beautiful picture I have ever seen, Lily. You are so sweet and creative. Thank you for making my birthday special."
+
+Lily smiled. She felt happy. She thought her mom liked her present. She thought she did a good job of making it. She hugged her mom. "You're welcome, Mommy. I love you."
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play together. One day, they visit Lily's grandma. Grandma lives in a small house near the park. Grandma is poor, but she is very kind.
+
+"Hello, Tom and Lily," Grandma says. "Do you want some cookies?"
+
+"Yes, please," Tom and Lily say. They eat the cookies and drink some milk. They say thank you to Grandma.
+
+"Can we go to the park, Grandma?" Lily asks.
+
+"Of course, dear," Grandma says. "But be careful and don't go too far."
+
+Tom and Lily run to the park. They see a lot of grass. The grass is green and soft. They take off their shoes and socks. They feel the grass with their feet. They laugh and tickle each other.
+
+"Look, a dog!" Tom says. He sees a big dog. The dog is brown and furry. The dog runs to Tom and Lily. He wags his tail and licks their faces.
+
+"Hi, dog," Tom and Lily say. They pet the dog and play with him. The dog is friendly and happy.
+
+"Who are you, dog?" Lily asks. "Do you have a name?"
+
+The dog barks. He does not have a name. He does not have a home. He is poor, too.
+
+"Can we keep him, Grandma?" Tom and Lily ask. They run back to Grandma with the dog.
+
+Grandma smiles. She sees the dog. She sees Tom and Lily. They are all happy.
+
+"Of course, you can keep him," Grandma says. "He needs a home. And you need a friend. What will you call him?"
+
+Tom and Lily think. They look at the dog. They have an idea.
+
+"We will call him Grass," they say. "Because he likes the grass. And because he is green, like the grass."
+
+Grandma laughs. She hugs Tom, Lily and Grass. They are a family now. They are poor, but they are happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to look at the flowers and the bugs. Lily saw a big red rose and wanted to smell it. She went closer and reached out her hand.
+
+"Ow!" she cried. "The rose has thorns! It hurt me!"
+
+Tom ran to her and saw the blood on her finger. He felt sorry for her and gave her a hug.
+
+"Let me tell you a secret," he said. "The rose has thorns to protect itself from careless people who want to pick it or break it. The rose is very pretty, but it is also very strong. You have to be gentle and careful with it, or it will hurt you."
+
+Lily nodded and wiped her tears. She looked at the rose again and said, "I'm sorry, rose. I didn't mean to be careless. You are very pretty and strong. Can we be friends?"
+
+The rose did not answer, but it seemed to smile in the sun. Lily and Tom smiled too, and went to play with the other flowers and bugs in the garden. They learned to be gentle and careful with all the living things.
+Tom and Lily were playing outside with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and catch it. They were having fun. But then they saw dark clouds in the sky. They heard a loud noise. It was thunder. They were scared.
+
+"Let's go inside, Tom," Lily said. "The thunder is too loud. It might rain."
+
+"No, I want to play more," Tom said. "The thunder is not scary. It is just noise."
+
+He kicked the ball hard. It flew over the fence. He ran after it.
+
+"Tom, wait!" Lily shouted. "Don't go there. It is not safe."
+
+But Tom did not listen. He climbed over the fence. He saw the ball on the road. He ran to get it. He did not see the car. The car was fast. It hit Tom. Tom fell down. He did not get up.
+
+Lily saw what happened. She screamed. She ran to Tom. She tried to wake him up. But he did not wake up. He was hurt. He was still. He did not breathe.
+
+Lily was sad. She was troubled. She cried. She wished she could play with Tom again. But she could not. Tom was gone. He became quiet. He became cold. He became a star.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to run and play. One day, they see a big hill. They want to race to the top.
+
+"Let's go!" Tim says. "I will be first!"
+
+"No, I will!" Sam says. "You are slow!"
+
+They start to run. They run fast. They split the grass and the dirt. They pass the trees and the rocks. They breathe hard. They are close to the top.
+
+"Look!" Tim says. "A rainbow!"
+
+Sam looks up. He sees the rainbow. It is amazing. It has many colors. It is bright and beautiful.
+
+"Wow!" Sam says. "It is so pretty!"
+
+They stop running. They forget the race. They sit on the hill. They watch the rainbow. They smile. They are happy. They are still friends.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the garden after dinner. They liked to look at the stars and the moon in the sky. They pretended they were astronauts and made rocket noises.
+
+"Look, Ben, the moon is so big and bright tonight!" Anna said, pointing at the sky.
+
+"Yes, it is. Do you think we can touch it?" Ben asked, jumping up and down.
+
+"Maybe if we jump really high, we can!" Anna said, and they both tried to jump as high as they could.
+
+But then, Anna tripped over a rock and fell down. She scraped her knee and it hurt a lot. She started to cry.
+
+"Anna, are you okay?" Ben asked, running to her.
+
+He saw the blood on her knee and felt guilty. He thought it was his fault that she fell. He wanted to make her feel better.
+
+"I'm sorry, Anna. It was my fault. I made you jump too high. Please don't cry," he said, hugging her.
+
+Anna sniffed and looked at him. She saw that he was sad and sorry. She knew he didn't mean to hurt her. She hugged him back.
+
+"It's okay, Ben. It was an accident. You didn't make me cry. The rock did. You are my friend," she said, smiling.
+
+They both looked at the moon again. It seemed to smile at them too. They felt better and stopped crying. They decided to go inside and get a band-aid for Anna's knee. They held hands and walked to the house. They were still friends.
+Lily and Ben like to make art with pasta. They have many shapes of pasta: wheels, tubes, bows, stars. They also have paint, glue and paper.
+
+One day, they want to decorate a big box. They say it is their house. They cut a door and windows in the box. Then they start to glue pasta on the box. They paint the pasta different colors. They make patterns and pictures with the pasta.
+
+Lily makes a small garden with green and yellow pasta. She glues some flowers and bugs on the pasta. Ben makes a small car with red and blue pasta. He glues some wheels and lights on the pasta. They are very happy with their pasta art.
+
+They show their pasta house to Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad are very proud of Lily and Ben. They say they are very creative and clever. They take a picture of the pasta house and put it on the fridge.
+
+Lily and Ben smile and hug Mom and Dad. They say they love pasta and art. They ask if they can eat some pasta for dinner. Mom and Dad laugh and say yes. They all go to the kitchen and make some yummy pasta.
+Sara was sad. She fell down and hurt her knee. It was red and sore. She cried and cried. Mommy came and hugged her. She said, "It's okay, Sara. I will comfort you. You are brave and strong."
+
+Mommy took Sara to the doctor. The doctor was nice and friendly. He smiled and said, "Hello, Sara. What happened to your knee?" Sara told him how she fell down. The doctor said, "I see. That must have hurt. But don't worry, I can help you. I will clean your knee and put a band-aid on it. It will feel better soon."
+
+The doctor had a tidy room. He had a big chair, a small table, and a lot of tools. He used a soft cloth, some water, and some soap to clean Sara's knee. He said, "This will make your knee clean and healthy. It might sting a little, but it will not hurt for long." Sara nodded and tried not to cry. She held Mommy's hand.
+
+The doctor put a band-aid on Sara's knee. He said, "There you go, Sara. You are all done. You did very well. You are a brave girl." He gave Sara a sticker and a lollipop. He said, "You can choose one. Which one do you like?" Sara smiled and said, "Thank you, doctor. I like the lollipop. It is pink and sweet." The doctor said, "You're welcome, Sara. Enjoy your lollipop. And be careful not to fall down again."
+
+Sara and Mommy said goodbye to the doctor. They went home. Sara felt better. Her knee was still sore, but not as much. She ate her lollipop and played with her toys. She said, "Mommy, I love you. You are the best." Mommy said, "I love you too, Sara. You are my precious girl." They hugged and kissed. Sara was happy.
+Tom and Sam were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big pile of leaves that someone had raked. They ran to the pile and jumped in. The leaves were deep and soft and made a crunchy sound.
+
+They had so much fun that they did not see a man walking by. The man was wearing a suit and a hat. He was going to a meeting and he was in a hurry. He did not see the pile of leaves either. He stepped on it and fell down.
+
+Tom and Sam were scared. They thought the man was angry. They jumped out of the pile and said sorry. The man was not angry. He was surprised and a little hurt. He saw that Tom and Sam were just playing. He smiled and said it was okay.
+
+He told them to be careful and to yield to people who were walking. Yield means to let them go first and not get in their way. Tom and Sam nodded and said they would. They helped the man get up and brushed off his suit. The man thanked them and went on his way.
+
+Tom and Sam went back to the pile of leaves. They decided to make a sign that said "Watch out for leaves". They put it next to the pile. Then they continued to play and have fun. They also looked around and yielded to anyone who was walking by. They did not want to make anyone fall again.
+Sara likes to look at insects. She thinks they are attractive. She likes their colors and shapes. She likes to watch them move and fly.
+
+One day, Sara goes to the park with her mom. She sees a big insect on a flower. It has red and black spots. It is a ladybug. Sara wants to touch it.
+
+She stands on her toes and reaches for the flower. But the ladybug flies away. Sara is sad. She tries to find it again.
+
+She sees another insect on a leaf. It has yellow and black stripes. It is a bee. Sara thinks it is attractive too. She wants to touch it.
+
+She stands on her toes and reaches for the leaf. But the bee buzzes and stings her. Sara is hurt. She cries.
+
+Her mom comes and hugs her. She puts some ice on her finger. She tells her not to touch insects. She says they are not toys. They are alive and they can bite or sting.
+
+Sara learns her lesson. She still likes to look at insects. But she does not touch them. She stands and watches them from far away. She thinks they are attractive and interesting.
+Ben and Mia were thirsty. They wanted some juice. They saw a big bottle of juice on the table. But the bottle was too high for them to reach.
+
+"Let's get a chair," Ben said. "We can stand on it and get the juice."
+
+"OK," Mia said. They got a chair and put it near the table. Ben climbed on the chair and grabbed the bottle. Mia climbed on the chair too and held the bottle with Ben.
+
+"Pull!" Ben said. They pulled the bottle together. But the bottle was too heavy and too full. The lid came off and the juice spilled everywhere. It splashed on the table, on the chair, on the floor, and on Ben and Mia.
+
+"Oh no!" Ben and Mia said. They were wet and sticky. They looked at the mess they made. They felt foolish.
+
+Mom came into the room and saw the juice spill. She was not happy. She shook her head and sighed.
+
+"What were you doing?" she asked.
+
+"We wanted some juice," Ben and Mia said.
+
+"You should have asked me for help," Mom said. "You could have hurt yourself or broken something. And you wasted a lot of juice."
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Ben and Mia said.
+
+Mom got a towel and a mop. She helped Ben and Mia clean up the spill. She gave them each a cup of juice and a hug.
+
+"Next time, please be careful and ask before you take something," Mom said.
+
+"OK, Mom," Ben and Mia said. They learned their lesson. They drank their juice and said thank you. They were not foolish anymore.
+Lila and Anna are best friends. They like to play with dolls and dress up. One day, Lila has a shiny bracelet. It has many colors and makes a jingly sound. Anna likes the bracelet too. She asks Lila if she can have it.
+
+"Can I have your bracelet, please?" Anna says.
+
+"No, it is mine. My mom gave it to me. It is very pretty," Lila says.
+
+"But I want it too. It is not fair. You have many things and I have few," Anna says.
+
+Lila thinks for a moment. She does not want to make Anna sad. She has an idea.
+
+"How about we part the bracelet? You can have half and I can have half. Then we can both wear it and share it," Lila says.
+
+Anna smiles. She thinks that is a good idea. She nods and says yes.
+
+Lila and Anna part the bracelet. They each take some of the colors and make a new bracelet. They put them on their wrists and hug. They are happy. They say they are bracelet friends.
+
+They play some more until it is time to go home. They are sleepy. They say goodbye and promise to see each other again. They take their bracelets with them and keep them close. They fall asleep dreaming of their friendship.
+Lily and Ben were twins who loved cookies. One day, their mom baked some yummy chocolate chip cookies and put them on a plate. She told them they could each have one cookie after lunch, but not before.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded, but they were very hungry and curious. They wanted to taste the cookies right away. When their mom went to the garden, they sneaked into the kitchen and looked at the plate. The cookies smelled so good and looked so big and brown.
+
+"Let's take one each," Ben whispered. "Mom won't notice."
+
+Lily hesitated. She knew it was wrong to take the cookies without asking. But she also wanted to try them. She looked at Ben and nodded.
+
+They each grabbed a cookie and ran to their room. They bit into the cookies and felt a burst of sweetness in their mouths. They smiled and chewed.
+
+But then, they heard their mom coming back. They quickly hid the cookies under their pillows and pretended to play with their toys.
+
+Their mom came in and smiled. "Are you ready for lunch, my sweeties?" she asked.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded, but they felt guilty. They saw their mom look at the plate and frown. She counted the cookies and saw that two were missing.
+
+"Did you take the cookies, Lily and Ben?" she asked, looking at them with a sad face.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other and felt ashamed. They knew they had been naughty and lied to their mom. They lowered their heads and said, "Yes, mom, we did. We're sorry."
+
+Their mom sighed and said, "I'm disappointed in you, Lily and Ben. You broke the rule and you broke my trust. You should have waited until after lunch. Now you won't have any more cookies today."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry and cried. They hugged their mom and said, "We're sorry, mom. We won't do it again. We love you."
+
+Their mom hugged them back and said, "I love you too, Lily and Ben. But you need to learn to be patient and honest. Cookies are a treat, not a need. And you should be grateful for what you have, not greedy for what you want."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and said, "We understand, mom. We will be patient and honest and grateful."
+
+Their mom smiled and said, "That's good, my sweeties. Now let's go have lunch. And maybe tomorrow, we can bake some more cookies together."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled and said, "Yes, mom. Thank you, mom."
+
+They followed their mom to the kitchen and ate their lunch. They felt happy and loved, even without the cookies. They learned their lesson and never took cookies without asking again.
+Tim and Sam were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make soup with water and toys. They put a big pot on the sink and filled it with water. Then they added some cars, blocks, and dolls.
+
+"Look, our soup is ready!" Tim said. "Let's taste it!"
+
+He reached for a spoon, but he was not careful. He knocked over the pot and the water spilled everywhere. It was very hot and it burned his hand. He cried out loud.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! It hurts!" Tim said.
+
+Sam was scared. He saw Tim's hand was red and sore. He wanted to help him. He remembered what his mom did when he scraped his knee. She put a band-aid on it and said it would heal.
+
+"Come on, Tim. Let's go to the bathroom. I have a band-aid for you," Sam said.
+
+He took Tim's hand and led him to the bathroom. He opened the medicine cabinet and found a band-aid with a picture of a dinosaur. He thought Tim would like it.
+
+"Here, this will make you feel better. It's a harmless dinosaur. He won't bite you," Sam said.
+
+He put the band-aid on Tim's hand and gave him a hug.
+
+"Thank you, Sam. You are a good friend," Tim said.
+
+They smiled at each other. They were still wet from the water, but they did not mind. They went back to the kitchen and cleaned up the mess. They decided to play something else. They did not want to make soup anymore.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But sometimes they fight over who gets what. One day, they see a big box in the living room. It has a red bow on it. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Maybe it is a new toy for us!" Lily says.
+
+"Or maybe it is a cake!" Ben says.
+
+They run to the box and try to open it. But it is too hard. They pull and push and tug and tear. They make a lot of noise. Mom and Dad hear them and come to see what is going on.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom asks.
+
+"We want to see what is in the box!" Lily and Ben say.
+
+Mom and Dad look at each other and smile. They have a surprise for the twins. They tell them to stop and wait. They say they will open the box together after dinner. They say it is a special gift for them.
+
+Lily and Ben are not happy. They want to see the gift now. They are grumpy and cross. They pout and whine. They do not want to eat dinner. They do not want to play. They do not want to do anything. They just want to open the box.
+
+Mom and Dad are patient and kind. They tell them to calm down and be good. They say they will love the gift. They say it is something they have always wanted. They say it is something that will make them happy.
+
+Lily and Ben are curious and hopeful. They wonder what it could be. They try to guess. They think of all the things they like. They think of all the things they wish for. They think of all the things that make them happy.
+
+Finally, it is time to open the box. Mom and Dad bring the box to the table. They tell Lily and Ben to sit down and close their eyes. They say they will count to three and then they can open their eyes and see the gift.
+
+Lily and Ben do as they are told. They sit down and close their eyes. They hear Mom and Dad count. One, two, three. They open their eyes and see the gift.
+
+It is a puppy! A cute and fluffy puppy! It has brown fur and black eyes and a wet nose. It wags its tail and licks their faces. It barks and jumps and plays. It is the best gift ever!
+
+Lily and Ben are overjoyed. They hug and kiss the puppy. They thank Mom and Dad. They say they love the puppy. They say they will take good care of it. They say they will share it and play with it and be nice to it.
+
+Mom and Dad are happy too. They smile and hug Lily and Ben. They say they are proud of them. They say they are glad they like the puppy. They say they have a name for it. They say it is called Start.
+
+Lily and Ben like the name. They say it is a good name. They say it is a name that means something new and fun and happy. They say it is a name that makes them want to go and play and explore and learn. They say it is a name that makes them happy.
+
+They all go to the couch and cuddle with Start. They pet him and talk to him and sing to him. They are a happy family. They have a new friend. They have a new start.
+Lily and Sam were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big pond with icy water. They wanted to see the fish and the ducks that lived there.
+
+"Let's go to the pond and watch them!" Sam said.
+
+"OK, but be careful. The ice is thin and can break," Lily said.
+
+They walked to the pond and looked at the water. They saw some fish swimming and some ducks quacking. They were happy and curious.
+
+"Can I touch the ice?" Sam asked.
+
+"I don't know. It might be cold and slippery," Lily said.
+
+Sam did not listen to Lily. He wanted to touch the ice. He stepped on the ice and reached out his hand. But the ice was too thin and cracked. Sam fell into the icy water. He was scared and cold. He cried for help.
+
+Lily heard Sam's cry. She ran to the pond and saw Sam in the water. She was scared too, but she wanted to help Sam. She looked around and saw a big stick. She grabbed the stick and ran to the edge of the ice. She stretched out the stick to Sam.
+
+"Grab the stick, Sam! I will pull you out!" Lily said.
+
+Sam grabbed the stick and Lily pulled him out. They were both wet and shivering. They hugged each other and ran to their house. They told their mom what happened. Their mom was glad they were safe, but she was also angry.
+
+"You should not go to the pond when the ice is thin. You could have drowned. You should listen to your friend when she tells you to be careful. She saved your life," their mom said.
+
+Sam felt sorry and ashamed. He thanked Lily for saving him. He learned his lesson. He promised to listen to his friend and to be careful next time.
+
+Lily and Sam were still friends who liked to play outside. But they never went to the pond when the ice was thin again. They learned to respect the ice and the water. They learned to watch out for each other. They learned to be good friends.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in the living room. One day, their mom says, "I have a surprise for you. Come to the kitchen."
+
+Anna and Ben run to the kitchen. They see a big cake on the table. It has candles and sprinkles. Mom says, "Happy birthday, my sweeties! You are four years old today. You are so lucky to have each other."
+
+Anna and Ben clap their hands and hug mom. They say, "Thank you, mom! We love you and the cake. Can we have some now?"
+
+Mom says, "Yes, of course. But first, you need to blow out the candles and make a wish. And then, you can help me carry the cups and plates to the living room."
+
+Anna and Ben nod and smile. They blow out the candles together and whisper their wishes. They wish for more toys and more fun. Then, they each take a cup and a plate and follow mom to the living room.

+Sam liked to play with his toy cars. He had many cars of different colors and sizes. His favorite car was a red one that could speed very fast. He called it Zoom.
+
+One day, Sam wanted to show Zoom to his friend Lily. He put Zoom in his backpack and went to Lily's house. Lily was happy to see Sam and his car. She had a toy train that could make noise and smoke. She called it Choo.
+
+Sam and Lily decided to race their toys on the floor. They made a track with books and pillows. They said "Ready, set, go!" and let their toys go. Zoom and Choo raced along the track, trying to be the first to reach the end.
+
+Zoom was faster than Choo, but Choo was smarter. Choo saw a rubber band on the floor. He used his smoke to blow the rubber band onto the track. Zoom did not see the rubber band. He hit it and bounced off the track. He crashed into a wall and broke his wheel.
+
+Sam was sad. He picked up Zoom and saw the broken wheel. He said "Oh no, Zoom is hurt!" Lily was sorry. She said "I'm sorry, Sam. I did not mean to hurt Zoom. It was just a game." She gave Sam a hug and a cookie.
+
+Sam felt a little better. He said "It's okay, Lily. Zoom can be fixed. He is a jolly car. He likes to have fun." He smiled and ate the cookie. He said "Maybe we can play again, but without the rubber band." Lily nodded and said "Yes, that sounds good. I like to play with you and Zoom." They hugged and played with other toys. Zoom watched them and waited for his wheel to be fixed. He was still jolly. He liked Sam and Lily. He knew they were his friends.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they have a test at school. The test is about colors and shapes.
+
+Lily is good at colors and shapes. She knows red, blue, yellow, green, and more. She knows circle, square, triangle, and star. She is not afraid of the test.
+
+Tom is not good at colors and shapes. He mixes up red and green, blue and yellow. He forgets circle and square, triangle and star. He is afraid of the test.
+
+Before the test, Lily and Tom sit together. Lily says, "Tom, do not be afraid. I will help you. Look at my book. It has colors and shapes. I will spread it wide. You can see it well."
+
+Tom says, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. I will look at your book. Maybe I will remember colors and shapes."
+
+Lily and Tom look at the book. Lily points to the colors and shapes. She says their names. Tom repeats after her. He tries to remember.
+
+The teacher comes. She says, "It is time for the test. Put away your books. Take out your papers. I will show you colors and shapes. You will draw them on your papers."

+Tim and Sue were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big dog with sharp teeth and loud barks. They were frightened and ran away. The dog chased them and they did not know what to do.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tim and Sue cried. "The dog is scary!"
+
+They saw a man with a tool in his hand. He was fixing a bench. He heard their cries and looked up. He saw the dog and the children.
+
+"Hey, stop!" the man shouted. He threw his tool at the dog. The tool hit the dog on the nose. The dog yelped and ran away.
+
+Tim and Sue ran to the man and hugged him. They thanked him for saving them.
+
+"You're welcome," the man said. "Are you okay?"
+
+"Yes, we are okay," Tim and Sue said. "You are very brave and kind."
+
+The man smiled and gave them his tool. It was a hammer.
+
+"This is my tool," he said. "You can use it to make things. But be careful, it is heavy and hard."
+
+Tim and Sue were happy and curious. They took the tool and thanked the man again. They decided to unite and make something with the tool. They looked for wood and nails and started to build a house for their dolls.
+
+They had fun and forgot their fear. They learned that a tool can be useful and that a friend can help. They also learned that a big dog is not always bad. Maybe he just wanted to play.
+Sam was a young boy who liked to play with his jet. He had a big jet that made noise and had lights. He flew his jet around the house and made zoom sounds. He was happy.
+
+One day, his mom said they had to go to the store. She told Sam to put his jet away and get ready. Sam did not want to go. He wanted to play with his jet. He said no and ran to his room. He hid his jet under his bed.
+
+His mom came to his room and looked for him. She saw his jet under the bed. She was angry. She said, "Sam, come out right now. You have to go to the store with me. You can play with your jet later." She reached for the jet.
+
+Sam did not like that. He jumped out from under the bed and grabbed his jet. He yelled, "No, mom, this is my jet. You can't take it. I want to play with it." He held his jet tight.
+
+His mom was sad. She said, "Sam, don't yell at me. I'm your mom. I love you. I just want you to listen to me. You can play with your jet when we come back. Please, be a good boy and come with me." She hugged him.
+
+Sam felt bad. He saw his mom's face. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I love you too. I will go to the store with you. But can I bring my jet?" He smiled.
+
+His mom smiled too. She said, "Yes, you can bring your jet. But you have to hold my hand and be careful. The store is busy and loud. There are many people and cars. OK?" She took his hand.
+
+Sam said, "OK, mom. Thank you. You are the best mom." He kissed her cheek. He flew his jet in the air and made zoom sounds. He was happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They saw a big box under a tree. They wanted to know what was inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Tom said.
+
+"Maybe it has a toy or a book or a cake!" Lily said.
+
+They ran to the box and lifted the lid. They saw a lot of shiny things that looked like stars. They were sparks. They made a loud noise and a bright light.
+
+Tom and Lily were nervous. They did not like the sparks. They were scared and loud.
+
+They dropped the lid and ran away. They hid behind the fence and hugged each other.
+
+"Who put the sparks in the box?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it was a trick or a joke or a mistake," Lily said.
+
+They waited until the sparks stopped. Then they went back to the house and told their mom what they saw.
+
+Mom was surprised and angry. She said the sparks were fireworks and they were dangerous. She said someone was very naughty and careless to leave them in the garden.
+
+She hugged Tom and Lily and said they were brave and smart to run away. She said she was sorry they were nervous and scared. She said she would find out who put the fireworks in the box and make them say sorry.
+
+Tom and Lily felt better. They said they did not want to play with sparks anymore. They wanted to play with something else.
+
+Mom smiled and said she had a surprise for them. She gave them a new toy and a book and a cake. They were happy and excited.
+
+They thanked mom and said they loved her. They said they loved each other too.
+
+They played and read and ate the cake. They forgot about the sparks and the box. They had fun and felt safe.
+Lily was a little girl who loved to dance. She liked to spin and jump and twirl in her pink dress. She felt graceful and happy when she danced.
+
+One morning, she wanted to show her dance to her mom and dad. She put on her dress and went to the kitchen. She saw them sitting at the table, eating cereal.
+
+"Mom, Dad, look at me!" she said. "I can dance!"
+
+She started to dance in front of them. She spun and jumped and twirled. She smiled and giggled.
+
+But then, she slipped on a piece of cereal that had fallen on the floor. She lost her balance and fell down. She hit her knee on the table leg. It hurt a lot.

+She started to cry. She felt scared and sad. She trembled and hugged her knee.
+
+Mom and Dad quickly got up and ran to her. They picked her up and hugged her.
+
+"Oh, Lily, are you okay?" Mom asked. "I'm sorry, we didn't see the cereal on the floor."
+
+"It's okay, Mom. It was an accident," Lily said. "But my knee hurts."
+
+"Let me see," Dad said. He looked at her knee. It was red and bruised. He kissed it gently. "There, there. It will be better soon. You are very brave, Lily."
+
+"Thank you, Dad," Lily said. She felt a little better. She stopped crying and trembling.
+
+Mom and Dad smiled at her. They told her how much they loved her and how proud they were of her dance. They said she was very graceful and talented.
+
+Lily smiled back at them. She felt loved and happy. She forgot about her pain. She asked them if they wanted to see her dance again.
+
+They said yes. They clapped and cheered for her. She danced again. She spun and jumped and twirled. She felt graceful and happy. She didn't slip this time. She finished her dance with a big bow.

+
+She loved her mom and dad. She loved to dance. She was a happy little girl.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big pipe that went under the ground. They wondered what was inside.
+
+"Let's go in the pipe and see," Tom said.
+
+"No, it's too dark and scary," Lily said.
+
+Tom decided he was brave and wanted to go. He crawled into the pipe and started to move. Lily decided she did not want to be alone and followed him.
+
+They went deeper and deeper into the pipe. It was dark and cold and wet. They heard strange noises and saw shadows. They were scared.
+
+"Tom, I want to go back," Lily said.
+
+"Me too," Tom said.
+
+But they did not know how to go back. They had gone too far. They did not know which way was out. They started to cry.
+
+Then they saw a light at the end of the pipe. They crawled faster and faster. They hoped it was the way out.
+
+They came out of the pipe and saw a big lake. There were ducks and fish and flowers. It was sunny and warm and beautiful. They were happy.
+
+"Wow, look at this," Tom said.
+
+"It's so pretty," Lily said.
+
+They forgot they were scared and played by the lake. They fed the ducks and picked the flowers. They had fun.

+They decided they liked the pipe after all. It was a secret adventure. They agreed to come back another day and explore more. They smiled and hugged. They were friends.
+Sara and Ben were playing outside with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and catch it. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they saw dark clouds in the sky. They heard a loud noise. It was a storm. The wind was strong and the rain was heavy. They were scared.
+
+"Let's go home, Sara!" Ben said. "The storm is bad. We need to be safe."
+
+But Sara did not want to go home. She wanted to keep playing. She liked the ball. She did not want to leave it.
+
+"No, Ben!" Sara said. "The ball is mine. I want to play more. The storm is not bad. It is fun."
+
+Ben was sad. He did not like Sara's words. He thought Sara was selfish and silly. He did not want to argue with her. He decided to go home by himself. He left the ball with Sara.
+
+Sara was happy. She had the ball all to herself. She kicked the ball and laughed. She did not care about the storm.
+
+But then, the storm got worse. The wind was stronger and the rain was heavier. The ball was wet and slippery. Sara could not catch it. The ball rolled away from her. She ran after it.
+
+But the ball was too fast. It went into a big puddle. The puddle was deep and muddy. Sara could not see the ball. She was sad.
+
+She looked around. She could not see Ben. She could not see her home. She was lost. She was cold and wet. She was scared.
+
+She cried. She wished she had listened to Ben. She wished she had gone home with him. She wished she had shared the ball with him.
+
+She learned a lesson. She learned that playing alone is not fun. She learned that sharing is good. She learned that storms are not fun. She learned that safety is important.
+
+She hoped that Ben would come back. She hoped that he would forgive her. She hoped that he would help her. She hoped that he would be her friend.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play and share, but sometimes they fight. One day, Mom makes soup for lunch. It is hot and yummy. Mom says soup is important for growing big and strong.
+
+Lily and Ben sit at the table. They each have a bowl of soup and a spoon. Lily eats her soup slowly. She likes to blow on it and make bubbles. Ben eats his soup fast. He likes to slurp and make noise. He finishes his soup before Lily.
+
+Ben looks at Lily's bowl. He sees some soup left. He wants more soup. He thinks soup is good. He grabs Lily's bowl and pulls it to him. Lily is angry. She grabs her bowl back and pushes Ben. Ben is angry. He pushes Lily. They both yell.
+
+"Stop!" Mom says. She comes to the table. She sees Lily and Ben fighting. She is not happy. She takes the soup away. She says, "No more soup for you. You need to learn to share and be nice. Soup is important, but so is being kind."
+
+Lily and Ben feel sorry. They say sorry to Mom and to each other. They hug and make up. Mom smiles. She gives them some bread and cheese. She says, "You can have some soup later, if you behave. Now eat your bread and cheese. They are important too."
+Mia and Leo were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big melon on a table near the swings. It looked juicy and sweet.
+
+"Can we have some?" Mia asked Leo.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe we should ask first," Leo said.
+
+But Mia was too hungry and curious. She ran to the table and grabbed the melon. She tried to bite it, but it was too hard. She dropped it on the ground and it broke into pieces.
+
+"Oh no!" Mia cried.
+
+Just then, a lady came out of a nearby house. She looked angry and sad.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing? That was my melon! I was going to make a salad for my guests!" she shouted.
+
+Mia and Leo felt embarrassed. They knew they had done something bad.
+
+"We're sorry, lady. We didn't mean to," Mia said.
+
+"Yeah, we're sorry. We just wanted to taste it," Leo said.
+
+The lady sighed. She saw that they were just little kids who made a mistake.
+
+"Well, you should have asked me first. I might have permitted you to have a slice. But now you have wasted my melon and made a mess," she said.
+
+She picked up the pieces of the melon and threw them in the trash. She looked at Mia and Leo.
+
+"Next time, be more polite and careful, okay? And don't touch things that are not yours," she said.
+
+Mia and Leo nodded. They felt sorry for the lady and for the melon.
+
+"Okay, lady. We're sorry. We won't do it again," they said.
+
+They ran back to the swings and played quietly. They learned their lesson. They decided to never take things without asking again.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big field of wild flowers. The flowers are yellow, pink, and blue. They smell good.
+
+"Wow, look at the flowers!" Lily says. "They are so pretty!"
+
+"Let's go and pick some!" Tom says. "We can make a crown for you and a necklace for me!"
+
+They run to the field and start to pick the flowers. They are happy and laugh. They hear bees buzzing and birds singing. They hear a dog barking.
+
+"Who's that?" Lily asks. She looks around and sees a big, brown dog. The dog is running towards them. He looks friendly, but he is very loud.
+
+"Hi, doggy!" Tom says. He likes dogs. He wants to pet the dog.
+
+But Lily is scared. She does not like dogs. She thinks the dog is too big and too noisy. She drops her flowers and runs away.
+
+"Tom, come with me!" she cries. "The dog is scary!"
+
+Tom hears Lily and sees her run. He feels sad. He likes the dog, but he likes Lily more. He drops his flowers and runs after her.
+
+"Wait, Lily!" he calls. "The dog is nice! He just wants to play!"
+
+But Lily does not hear him. She runs to the park gate and looks for her mom. She sees her mom sitting on a bench. She runs to her and hugs her.
+
+"Mom, mom, there was a big, loud dog!" she says. "He chased us in the flower field! He was scary!"
+
+Her mom hugs her back and kisses her. She sees Tom running behind her. He looks sad and out of breath.
+
+"Are you OK, Tom?" she asks. "What happened?"
+
+Tom stops and looks at Lily and her mom. He smiles and says, "We were picking wild flowers. They were pretty. But then we heard a dog. He was big and brown. He wanted to play with us. But Lily was scared. She ran away. I ran after her. I wanted to tell her the dog was nice. But she did not hear me. She ran to you. I'm sorry, Lily. I did not mean to scare you."
+
+Lily looks at Tom. She sees he is sorry. She feels sorry too. She likes Tom. He is her friend.
+
+"It's OK, Tom," she says. "I'm sorry too. I did not mean to run away. I was scared. I do not like dogs. They are too big and too noisy. But maybe the dog was nice. Maybe he just wanted to play. Maybe we can play with him next time. If you are with me."
+
+Tom nods and says, "OK, Lily. I will be with you. We can play with the dog next time. If you want. And we can pick more wild flowers. They are pretty. And they smell good."
+
+Lily and Tom hug and smile. They are friends again. They hear the dog barking. He sounds happy. They hear the bees buzzing and the birds singing. They smell the wild flowers. They are happy too.
+Daisy was a little dog who loved to run and play in the park. She liked to chase the birds and the squirrels, and to dig holes in the grass. She also liked to smell the flowers, especially the ones that had the same name as her.
+
+One day, it was very cold and snowy in the park. Daisy wore a warm coat and a hat, but she still felt chilly. She saw some white flowers that looked like daisies, but they were covered with ice. She wondered if they smelled nice, too.
+
+She ran towards the flowers and tried to sniff them. But as soon as she touched them, she felt a sharp pain in her nose. She yelped and jumped back. The flowers were not daisies, they were snowflakes! They had frozen on the ground and made the grass look like a big white blanket.
+
+"Ouch, ouch, ouch!" Daisy cried. "My nose hurts!"
+
+She heard a voice behind her. It was her friend, Ben, a big brown bear. He had a scarf and a shovel. He was helping to clear the snow from the paths.
+
+"What's wrong, Daisy?" Ben asked. "Did you hurt yourself?"
+
+Daisy told him what happened. She showed him her red nose. Ben felt sorry for her. He gave her a hug and said, "Don't worry, Daisy. Your nose will be fine. You just need to warm it up a bit. Here, let me help you."
+
+He took off his scarf and wrapped it around Daisy's nose. He also gave her his shovel. He said, "This is a useful thing. You can use it to dig in the snow and find some real daisies. They are hiding under the snow, but they are still alive. They will make you happy."
+
+Daisy smiled and thanked Ben. She felt better with the scarf and the shovel. She followed Ben and they started to dig in the snow. They found some yellow and pink daisies. They smelled sweet and fresh. Daisy and Ben picked some and made a bouquet. They gave it to the park keeper, who was very happy to see them.
+
+Daisy and Ben had fun in the snow. They learned that snowflakes are not flowers, but they are still pretty. They also learned that daisies are strong and can survive the cold. And they learned that friends are useful and can make you feel better.
+Tom and Lily went to the farm with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, like cows, pigs, chickens and sheep. They liked to feed them and pet them. But Tom's favorite animal was the goat. He wanted to play with the goat all day.
+
+The goat was white and brown, with horns and a beard. He was friendly and curious. He liked to eat grass and hay, and sometimes he nibbled on Tom's shirt. Tom laughed and gave him more hay. He wanted to ride on the goat's back, like a horse.
+
+But the goat was too small for Tom. Tom was a big boy, and the goat was a little animal. Tom tried to sit on the goat, but he did not fit. He was too heavy and the goat was too thin. The goat bleated and shook Tom off. Tom fell on the ground and hurt his knee.
+
+Lily saw what happened and ran to help Tom. She hugged him and said, "Don't cry, Tom. The goat is not a horse. He is not strong enough to carry you. You are too big for him. But you can still be his friend. You can step beside him and walk with him. He likes that."
+
+Tom stopped crying and nodded. He wiped his tears and smiled. He said, "You are right, Lily. The goat is not a horse. He is a goat. And I like him. He is my friend. I will step beside him and walk with him. And I will give him more hay." He got up and took Lily's hand. They went to the goat and stroked his fur. The goat wagged his tail and licked their faces. They all walked together and had fun. Mom and Dad watched them and smiled. They were happy.

+
+"Oh no!" Lisa cries. "I broke the book! Uncle Tom will be angry!"
+
+She hears her uncle coming and hides under the table. She hopes he will not see the book.
+
+"Lisa, where are you?" Uncle Tom calls. "I have some cookies for you!"
+
+He sees the book on the floor and picks it up. He sees the tear and sighs.
+
+"Lisa, did you do this?" he asks.
+
+Lisa is scared. She comes out from under the table and nods.
+
+"I'm sorry, uncle Tom. I wanted to read the book, but it was too high. I didn't mean to break it."
+
+Uncle Tom smiles and hugs her.
+
+"It's okay, Lisa. I'm not angry. I know you love books. But you have to be careful. Books are not toys. They are precious and fragile. You have to treat them gently."
+
+He shows her how to fix the tear with some tape. He says they can read the book together later.
+
+"Thank you, uncle Tom. You are very kind. Can I have a cookie now?"
+
+"Of course, Lisa. You can have a cookie. They are delicious. But first, let's put the book back on the shelf. And next time, ask me for help if you want to read a book that is too high for you."
+
+Lisa agrees and smiles. She is happy that her uncle is not angry. She loves him very much. She thinks he is the best uncle in the world.
+Tim and Sam were friends. They liked to play with cars and trucks. One day, they found a big gum on the road. It was pink and sticky. They wanted to eat it.

+"Can I have some?" Tim asked.
+
+"OK, but only a little," Sam said. He broke the gum in two and gave one piece to Tim. They put the gum in their mouths and chewed.

+"Me too!" Sam said. "Help, help!"
+
+They ran to their moms. Their moms saw the gum and were angry and scared. They took them to the dentist. The dentist had to pull out some of their teeth. He said they had to brush their teeth every day and never eat gum from the road.
+
+Tim and Sam were sad. They had broken teeth and no gum. They could not play with cars and trucks. They had to stay in bed and drink soup. They wished they had never found the gum.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and laugh. They saw a big hedge with many green leaves. They wondered what was behind it.
+
+"Let's go and discover!" said Lily. She was brave and curious.
+
+"OK, but be careful!" said Ben. He was a little scared and careful.
+
+They crawled under the hedge and saw a new place. There were many flowers and trees and birds. They also saw a big hole in the ground.
+
+"What is that?" asked Lily. She wanted to look inside.
+
+"Maybe it is a home for an animal," said Ben. He thought it might be dangerous.
+
+They heard a loud growl from the hole. They saw a big head with sharp teeth and angry eyes. It was a bear!
+
+"Run!" shouted Ben. He grabbed Lily's hand and they ran back to the hedge.
+
+They crawled under the hedge and ran to their house. They were safe and happy.
+
+They told their mom what they saw. She hugged them and said, "You are very brave, but you should not go near the hedge. It is dangerous. The bear might hurt you."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They learned a new word: dangerous. They decided to play somewhere else. They still liked to discover, but they also liked to be safe.
+Lily and Ben were drawing pictures with crayons on paper. Lily wanted to draw a big sun, but she made a mistake. She tried to erase the sun with her eraser, but it did not work. The eraser was rough and made a hole in the paper.
+

+
+Lily felt sad. She did not mean to ruin Ben's picture. She wanted to be his friend. She looked at her eraser. It was old and dirty. She wished she had a new and soft eraser.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," Lily said. "I don't have a good eraser. Can I use yours?"
+
+Ben looked at his eraser. It was new and pink. He liked his eraser. He did not want to share it with Lily. He thought she would make it rough and dirty too.
+
+"No, you can't," Ben said. "This is my eraser. You can't have it."
+
+Lily felt more sad. She did not know what to do. She wanted to fix her mistake and make Ben happy. She looked around the room. She saw a box of stickers on the shelf. She had an idea.
+
+"Ben, I have something for you," Lily said. She ran to the shelf and got the box of stickers. She opened it and showed it to Ben. "Look, there are many stickers in here. They are colorful and shiny. You can use them to decorate your picture. They will cover the hole and make it more beautiful."
+
+Ben looked at the stickers. He saw stars, hearts, flowers, and animals. He liked the stickers. He smiled.
+
+"Wow, these are nice stickers," Ben said. "Thank you, Lily. You are very kind. Can I have some?"
+
+"Of course, you can," Lily said. "You can have as many as you want. We can share them. We can both use them to make our pictures better."
+
+Lily and Ben took some stickers and stuck them on their papers. They covered the hole and added more details. They made their pictures more colorful and shiny. They were happy.
+
+"Look, our pictures are done," Lily said. "They are very pretty. Do you like them?"
+
+"I do," Ben said. "They are very pretty. I like them a lot. And I like you too, Lily. You are a good friend. Do you want to draw more pictures with me?"

+
+"Hello, kids!" he says. "I'm glad you found my map. I made it for you. I'm a photographer and I love taking pictures of the park. I wanted to share them with you and show you how beautiful it is."
+
+"Really?" Tom and Lily say. "Thank you, mister! You are very kind. We love your map. It is very colorful and fun."
+
+"You're welcome, kids!" he says. "You can keep the map if you want. Or you can give it to someone else who might enjoy it."
+
+Tom and Lily look at each other and smile. They decide to give the map to their teacher, who likes animals and flowers too. They hug the man and thank him again. Then they run to the school, happy and excited. They can't wait to show their teacher the colorful map.
+Ben and Lily went to the farm with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, like cows, pigs, sheep and horses. But their favorite was the chicken coop. There were many chickens, some white, some brown, some black. They made funny noises and pecked at the ground.
+
+"Can we touch them?" Lily asked Mom.
+
+"Sure, but be gentle and careful. They might be scared of you," Mom said.
+
+Ben and Lily went inside the coop and looked for a chicken to pet. They saw a fat brown chicken sitting on a nest of eggs. She looked soft and fluffy.
+
+"Hello, chicken," Ben said. "Can I rub you?"
+
+He reached out his hand and rubbed the chicken's back. The chicken clucked and moved her wings.
+
+"She likes it," Ben said. "She's warm and cozy."
+
+Lily wanted to rub the chicken too. She came closer and put her hand on the chicken's head. The chicken did not like that. She squawked and pecked at Lily's hand.
+
+"Ow!" Lily cried. "She bit me!"
+
+She ran out of the coop, holding her hand. Mom and Dad came to see what happened.
+
+"Are you okay, Lily?" Mom asked.
+
+"The chicken bit me," Lily said. "She was mean."
+
+Mom looked at Lily's hand. It was red, but not bleeding.
+
+"It's okay, honey. She didn't mean to hurt you. She was just protecting her eggs. You have to be careful where you touch them. Some places are okay, some are not," Mom said.
+
+She gave Lily a hug and a kiss.
+
+"Can we see the other animals?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, let's go," Mom said.
+
+Ben followed them, still holding the chicken's feather he had pulled out.
+
+"She was nice to me," he said. "I like chickens."
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and plant and water. They had a big squash that they grew from a seed. It was green and round and heavy.
+
+One day, a nosy cat came to the garden. It saw the squash and wanted to play with it. It jumped on the squash and scratched it with its claws. It made a hole in the squash and the juice came out.

+
+"Bad cat! Go away!" Lily shouted. She picked up a stick and waved it at the cat.
+
+"Leave our squash alone!" Ben said. He threw a stone at the cat.
+
+The cat was scared and ran away. It did not like the stick and the stone. It did not want to play with the squash anymore.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at their squash. It was broken and messy. They could not eat it or save it.
+
+They paused and hugged each other. They felt sorry for their squash. They decided to plant a new seed and grow a new squash. They hoped the nosy cat would not come back.

+
+Tim felt sad. He thought the frog did not like him. He thought the frog was mean. He stopped whistling and walked away. He did not see the frog jump out of the pond and follow him. He did not hear the frog croak softly behind him. He did not know the frog wanted to be friends with him.

+"Mom, we are sorry. But we are having fun. We like nature. Nature is better than toys. Nature is free and beautiful. Can we please play a little more?"
+
+Their mom looked at them. She saw their happy faces and their bright eyes. She felt a little sorry for them. She remembered when she was a child and liked to play with nature. She sighed and smiled.
+
+"Okay, okay. You can play a little more. But only a little. And then you have to come inside and take a bath. And put away your expensive toys. And say thank you to nature. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and hugged their mom. They said thank you to her and to nature. They picked up their umbrellas and ran to the puddle. They jumped and splashed and spun. They were happy.
+Lily was sad. She had a big cut on her knee from falling off her bike. It hurt a lot and it was red and wet. Mommy put a band-aid on it and gave her a hug.
+
+"Will it heal, Mommy?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, my sweetie, it will heal. But you have to be careful and not touch it too much. And you have to eat healthy food and drink lots of water to help your body heal faster." Mommy said.
+
+"Can I have some cocoa, Mommy? I like cocoa. It makes me happy." Lily said.
+
+"Of course you can, Lily. Cocoa is a useful drink. It has milk and sugar and chocolate. Milk has calcium, which is good for your bones. Sugar gives you energy, which is good for your brain. And chocolate has antioxidants, which are good for your skin. Cocoa is a good treat for you, but not too much, okay?" Mommy said.
+
+"Okay, Mommy. Thank you, Mommy. I love you, Mommy." Lily said.
+
+"I love you too, Lily. Now drink your cocoa and rest a little. Then we can read a story together." Mommy said.
+
+Lily smiled and drank her cocoa. She felt warm and cozy. She hoped her cut would heal soon. She was glad she had a mommy who knew how to make her feel better.
+Sara and Leo were best friends. They liked to play together every day. They liked to make up stories and songs in their own language. They had a secret language that only they could understand.
+
+One day, Sara's mom told her that they had to move to a distant place. Sara was very sad. She did not want to leave Leo and their language. She ran to Leo's house and told him the news.
+
+"Leo, I have to go away. My mom says we have to move to a distant place. I don't want to go. I want to stay with you and our language."
+
+Leo was sad too. He hugged Sara and said, "I don't want you to go either. You are my best friend. I will miss you and our language."
+
+They cried together for a while. Then Leo said, "Sara, we can still be friends. We can write letters to each other. And we can use our language in the letters. No one else will know what we are saying. We can still share our stories and songs."
+
+Sara smiled a little. She said, "That sounds good, Leo. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will never forget our language. And you have to promise me that you will always be my friend."
+
+Leo nodded. He said, "I promise, Sara. I will never forget our language. And I will always be your friend. You have to promise me the same thing."
+
+Sara nodded. She said, "I promise, Leo. I will never forget our language. And I will always be your friend."
+
+They hugged each other again. They said goodbye in their language. They hoped to see each other again someday. They kept their promise.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play at the park. They like to go on the slide. The slide is big and fast. It is warm today. The sun is bright.
+
+Tom and Anna run to the slide. They want to go first. They both say, "Me! Me!" They push and pull. They are not nice. They are angry.
+
+"Stop!" a voice calls. It is Mom. She sees Tom and Anna. She is not happy. She walks to the slide. She says, "What are you doing? You have to share. You have to be kind. You have to say sorry."
+
+Tom and Anna look at Mom. They feel bad. They say, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, friend." They hug. They are friends again.

+
+Tom and Anna go on the slide. They take turns. They say, "Whee!" They have fun. They are happy. The slide is big and fast. It is warm today. The sun is bright.
+Tom was restless. He did not want to sleep. He wanted to play with his toys and see his friends. He looked at the window and saw the moon and the stars. He asked his mom, "When will it be morning?"
+
+His mom hugged him and said, "Soon, Tom, soon. Morning will come when the sun rises and the sky turns blue. Then you can play and have fun. But now you need to sleep and rest. Sleeping is good for you. It helps you grow and learn and be happy."
+
+Tom said, "But I don't like sleeping. Sleeping is boring. I want to change. I want to be awake all the time."
+
+His mom smiled and said, "You can't change that, Tom. Everyone needs to sleep, even the moon and the stars. They sleep when the sun comes out. And you know what? Sleeping can be fun too. You can dream of anything you want. You can dream of flying, or swimming, or going to the zoo. You can dream of being a superhero, or a pirate, or a king. Sleeping is like having your own stories in your head."
+
+Tom thought about that. He liked stories. He liked dreaming. He said, "Okay, mom, I will try to sleep. But can you tell me a story first?"
+
+His mom nodded and said, "Of course, Tom, of course. I will tell you a story about a brave boy who went on a big adventure. And then you can sleep and have your own adventure. Are you ready?"
+
+Tom said, "Yes, mom, I'm ready. I love you."
+
+His mom said, "I love you too, Tom. Now close your eyes and listen." And she began to tell him a story. Tom listened and felt his eyes get heavy. He felt warm and cozy in his bed. He felt his mom's voice in his ear. He felt sleepy. He felt happy. He fell asleep.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to observe everything. They liked to observe the birds, the cars, the flowers and the people. One day, they went to the park with their mom and saw a man with a lot of money. He had a big bag full of money and he was giving some to other people.
+
+"Mom, why does he have so much money?" Ben asked.
+
+"He is rich, Ben. He has more money than he needs, so he is sharing some with others who need it more," mom said.
+
+"Can we have some money too?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, Lily. We have enough money for what we need. We don't need to take money from him. He is being kind and generous," mom said.
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They understood that money was not the most important thing in the world. They were happy with what they had. They observed the man with the money and smiled. They saw that he was happy too. He was happy to help others and to make them smile. Ben and Lily learned that being rich was not only about having money, but also about having a good heart.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They want to match their cars with the same ones.

+
+Sam and Tom are sad. They want to match their cars. They look around the room. They see a box. The box has many cars inside. They run to the box. They are quick. They open the box. They see many cars of different colors and sizes. They are happy. They find cars that match their cars.
+
+"Look, I found a big red car. Now I have two big red cars. You can have one too!" Tom says.

+
+Then, they see a lady who is sitting on a bench. She is smiling and reading a book. She looks calm and happy. Tim and Mia wonder why she is so different from them.
+
+They go to the lady and ask her, "Why are you so happy?"
+
+The lady looks at them and says, "Because I am patient. I know that good things come to those who wait. I enjoy the sun, the breeze and the book. I do not rush or fuss. I am kind and polite to others. I make many friends. I have a lot of fun."
+
+Tim and Mia think about what the lady says. They realize that they have been wrong. They decide to be more patient. They say sorry to the other children and wait for their turn. They share and take turns. They are friendly and respectful. They make many friends. They have a lot of fun.

+Sara and Ben like to watch birds. They have a big book with many pictures of birds. They can say the names of some birds, like robin, sparrow, and crow. They want to see more birds in their yard.
+
+One day, they find a basket in the garage. It is brown and round and has a handle. They think it is a good basket for birds. They fill it with seeds and nuts and hang it on a branch of a tree. They hope the birds will come and eat.
+
+They sit on the grass and watch the basket. They wait and wait. They see a squirrel run up the tree. It sees the basket and smells the food. It tries to get in the basket, but it is too big. It pushes and pulls, but the basket is too tight. It falls off the branch and lands on the ground. Sara and Ben laugh.
+
+Then they see a blue jay fly to the basket. It is a big and loud bird. It pecks at the seeds and nuts. It makes a lot of noise. It scares away the other birds. Sara and Ben do not like the blue jay. They want to see more kinds of birds.
+
+They get up and go to the basket. They take some seeds and nuts out of the basket. They make a trail on the ground. They hope the blue jay will follow the trail and leave the basket. They go back to the grass and watch.
+
+Soon, they see a robin, a sparrow, and a crow come to the basket. They take turns to eat from the basket. They are small and quiet birds. They do not fight. Sara and Ben smile. They point to the birds and say their names. They are happy to watch the birds.
+Anna likes to collect things. She has a big box full of shiny stones, soft feathers, and pretty shells. She likes to look at them and make patterns with them. Sometimes she shows them to her friends and they trade.
+
+One day, Anna finds a purple flower in the park. It is very bright and smells nice. She picks it and puts it in her box. She thinks it is the most beautiful thing she has ever seen. She wants to show it to her mom when she comes home.
+
+She runs to the bus stop where her mom always meets her. She sees her mom waiting for her with a smile. She hugs her and says, "Mom, I have something to show you. It is a surprise. You will love it."
+
+She opens her box and takes out the purple flower. But the flower is not bright and nice anymore. It is wilted and brown. Anna feels sad and confused. She says, "Mom, what happened to my flower? It was so pretty before."
+
+Her mom hugs her and says, "I'm sorry, Anna. Flowers are alive, like us. They need water and sun to stay healthy. When you pick them, they start to die. They don't last for a long time."
+
+Anna says, "But I wanted to keep it. I wanted to collect it."
+
+Her mom says, "I know, Anna. But some things are not meant to be collected. Some things are meant to be enjoyed in the moment. Like a rainbow, or a song, or a hug. They are special because they don't last forever. They are gifts of time."
+
+Anna thinks about what her mom says. She says, "I understand, Mom. Can we go back to the park and see more flowers? Maybe we can take a picture of them, or draw them, or just smell them."
+
+Her mom says, "Sure, Anna. That sounds like a great idea. Let's go and see what else we can find."
+Sara was a little bird who loved to soar in the sky. She liked to feel the wind on her wings and see the clouds and the sun. She had a nest in a big tree with her mama and papa and her two brothers, Tom and Ben.
+
+One day, Sara wanted to show her brothers how high she could soar. She flew up and up, higher than the other birds. She felt very happy and proud. She called to her brothers, "Look at me! Look how high I can soar!"
+
+But Tom and Ben were not happy. They were scared. They thought Sara was too far from the nest and the tree. They thought she might get lost or hurt. They called to her, "Sara, come back! Come back to the nest! It is not safe to soar so high!"
+
+Sara heard them, but she did not listen. She wanted to soar higher and higher. She thought they were silly and afraid. She said, "No, I will not come back! I like to soar! I am not scared of anything!"
+
+But then, Sara saw something that made her scared. She saw a big hawk with sharp claws and a fierce beak. The hawk saw Sara too, and it wanted to catch her. It flew towards her, fast and angry. Sara was very afraid. She wished she had listened to her brothers. She wished she was back in the nest.
+
+She tried to fly away, but the hawk was faster. It was almost on her, when she heard a loud noise. It was her papa. He had seen the hawk and he had come to help her. He flew in front of Sara and he pecked at the hawk. He made the hawk go away. He saved Sara.
+
+He took Sara in his wings and he flew back to the nest. He was very angry and worried. He said, "Sara, you were very foolish and naughty. You should not have soared so high. You could have been hurt or killed by the hawk. You should always listen to your mama and papa and your brothers. They love you and they want you to be safe."
+
+Sara felt very sorry and ashamed. She said, "I am sorry, papa. I am sorry, mama. I am sorry, Tom and Ben. I was wrong. I will not soar so high again. I will stay close to the nest and the tree. I love you too and I want to be safe."
+
+Her mama and papa and her brothers hugged her and forgave her. They were glad she was safe. They said, "We are happy you are back, Sara. We are proud of you for being lively and brave, but you must also be careful and wise. You can soar in the sky, but not too high. You can have fun, but not too much. You can be free, but not alone."
+
+Sara understood. She thanked her papa for saving her. She said, "You are the best papa in the world. You are the strongest and the bravest. You can soar higher than anyone."
+
+Her papa smiled and said, "Maybe, but I always come back to the nest. Because that is where my family is. And that is where my heart is."
+Lily liked math. She liked to count and add and take away. She liked to play with blocks and shapes and puzzles. She liked to show her math to her friends and her teacher.
+
+But Sam did not like math. He did not like to count and add and take away. He did not like to play with blocks and shapes and puzzles. He did not like to see Lily's math. He said math was hard and boring and silly.
+
+One day, Lily and Sam had to work together on a math project. They had to make a picture with blocks and shapes. Lily had many ideas. She wanted to make a house, a car, a flower, a star. She told Sam what to do. She said, "Put this block here. Put that shape there. Make this line. Make that curve."
+
+Sam did not like Lily's ideas. He did not want to do what she said. He thought she was bossy and mean. He said, "Stop telling me what to do. I don't want to make your picture. I want to make my own picture. I quit!"
+
+He took his blocks and shapes and ran away. He left Lily alone with her picture. Lily was sad and angry. She did not understand why Sam quit. She did not want to finish her picture by herself.
+
+The teacher came and saw what happened. She was not happy. She said, "Lily, Sam, come here. Why did you not work together? Why did you quit? You have to learn to cooperate and respect each other. Math is fun and useful, but only if you share and listen and help each other. You have to say sorry and try again."
+
+But Lily and Sam did not say sorry. They did not try again. They stayed mad at each other. They did not learn to cooperate and respect each other. They did not have fun and useful math. They had a bad ending.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't quit. Don't be bossy. Work together. Math is fun and useful.
+Lily and Ben were hungry. They wanted to eat steak for dinner. But steak was too expensive. Mom and Dad did not have much money.
+
+They saw a sign in the shop. It said: "Cheap steak. Only five coins." They ran to the shop. They saw a big pile of steak. It looked good. They wanted to buy some.
+
+But the shopkeeper was mean. He said: "This steak is not for you. It is for my dog. You can have some bread and cheese. That is cheap too."
+
+Lily and Ben did not like bread and cheese. They liked steak. They had an idea. They whispered to each other. They said: "Let's wait until the shopkeeper is busy. Then we can take some steak and run away."
+
+They waited for a long time. They saw the shopkeeper talking to a lady. He did not look at the steak. Lily and Ben sneaked to the pile. They grabbed some steak. They ran out of the shop.
+
+They were happy. They had steak for dinner. But the steak was not good. It was hard and chewy. It tasted bad. They did not like it.
+
+They learned a lesson. They said: "Cheap steak is not good steak. It is for dogs. We should not take things that are not ours. We are sorry."
+
+They went back to the shop. They gave back the steak. They said sorry to the shopkeeper. He was angry. He said: "You are naughty. You should not steal. You should work hard and save money. Then you can buy good steak."
+
+Lily and Ben felt bad. They said: "We are sorry. We will work hard and save money. We will not steal again."
+
+The shopkeeper saw that they were sorry. He said: "OK. I forgive you. But you have to do something for me. You have to help me in the shop. You have to sweep the floor and stack the shelves. Then I will give you some bread and cheese. And maybe some steak. But only good steak. Not cheap steak."
+
+Lily and Ben agreed. They helped the shopkeeper. They ate bread and cheese. And sometimes steak. But only good steak. They liked it. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben like to play in the park. They like to slide, swing, and run. But their favorite thing is the tire. The tire is big and round. It hangs from a rope on a tree. They can sit in the tire and spin and swing.
+
+One day, they go to the park and see a man. The man has a saw and a ladder. He is cutting the rope that holds the tire. Lily and Ben are sad and scared. They run to the man and say, "Please, please, do not cut the tire. We love the tire. It is our favorite thing."
+
+The man stops and looks at them. He smiles and says, "Do not worry, kids. I am not cutting the tire. I am fixing it. The rope is old and weak. It can break and hurt you. I have a new rope. It is strong and safe. I will hang the tire with the new rope. Then you can play with it again."
+
+Lily and Ben are happy and relieved. They say, "Thank you, thank you, mister. You are very nice. You are making the tire better. We are grateful to you."
+
+The man finishes his work and hangs the tire with the new rope. He says, "You are welcome, kids. Have fun with the tire. But be careful and do not swing too high." He gives them a wink and leaves.
+
+Lily and Ben run to the tire and sit in it. They spin and swing and laugh. They have more fun than ever. They are grateful for the man and the tire. They are grateful for the park and the play. They are grateful for each other and the day.

+
+His dad says, "Be careful, Ben. The powder can be tricky. You have to stay in control. Don't rush too much or you might fall." Ben nods and says he will be careful. He puts on his skis and his helmet. He follows his dad to the top of the hill.
+
+Ben and his dad look at the hill. It is steep and long. Ben feels excited and nervous. He wants to ski well and impress his dad. He sees his dad ski down the hill. His dad makes smooth and steady turns. He looks in control and happy.

He tries to make turns like his dad. But he goes too fast. He rushes. He loses control. He hits a bump. He flies in the air. He lands in the powder. He feels a lot of pain. He cries.
+
+His dad hears him cry. He rushes to him. He sees Ben in the powder. He sees blood on his face. He feels scared and sad. He hugs Ben and says, "I'm sorry, Ben. Are you okay? We have to go to the doctor. You have a cut on your face. You need stitches."
+
+Ben feels his face. He feels the cut. He feels more pain. He says, "I'm sorry, dad. I was not careful. I rushed. I wanted to ski like you. I wanted to have fun. But I fell. I don't like the powder. It hurts."
+
+His dad says, "It's okay, Ben. You don't have to be sorry. You tried your best. You wanted to have fun. But skiing is not always easy. Sometimes it can be dangerous. You have to learn from your mistakes. You have to be more careful. You have to slow down. You have to stay in control. Then you can have fun and be healthy. I love you, Ben. You are my brave boy."
+
+Ben says, "I love you, dad. You are my good dad. You are my best teacher. I will learn from my mistakes. I will be more careful. I will slow down. I will stay in control. Then I can ski with you again. And have fun. And be healthy."

+
+Tom and Lily call the dog. They say nice words. They say, "Come, dog. We are your friends. We want to bring you peace. We want to find you a home." The dog hears them. It looks at them. It wags its tail. It is not wild anymore. It is friendly.
+
+Tom and Lily come down the tree. They pet the dog. The dog licks them. They are happy. They bring the dog to their home. They ask their mom and dad. They say, "Can we keep the dog? We love the dog.

+Sara likes to question everything. She always asks her mom and dad why, how, and what. Sometimes they know the answers, and sometimes they don't. But they always try to help Sara learn new things.
+
+One day, Sara sees a big computer in her dad's office. She wonders what it does and how it works. She asks her dad if she can play with it. Her dad says yes, but he has to show her first. He turns on the computer and opens a website. He says, "This is a famous website. It has a lot of information about many things. You can type a question in this box, and it will give you an answer."
+
+Sara is amazed. She thinks of a question she wants to ask. She says, "Dad, can I ask how many stars are in the sky?" Her dad smiles and says, "Sure, you can. But you have to type it with these letters. Can you do that?" Sara nods and tries to find the letters on the keyboard. She types slowly and carefully. She presses enter and waits.
+
+The computer shows a picture of the night sky and some words. Sara reads them with her dad's help. She learns that there are billions of stars in the sky, and that some of them have names and colors. She is very happy and curious. She says, "Wow, that's amazing. Can I ask another question?" Her dad says, "Of course, you can. The computer is here to help you. But remember, not all questions have simple answers. Sometimes you have to think and explore more. And sometimes you have to make your own answers. That's what makes learning fun." Sara agrees and thinks of another question. She says, "Dad, can I ask why I love you so much?" Her dad hugs her and says, "That's a very good question. But I don't think the computer can answer that. I think you already know the answer in your heart." Sara smiles and says, "I do. I love you because you are my dad. And you are the best dad in the world." Her dad says, "I love you too, Sara. And you are the best daughter in the world." They hug and laugh and keep playing with the computer. They learn many new things together. And they never stop questioning.
+Anna and Ben liked to play with blocks. They made a big tower with many blocks. They put a flag on top of the tower. They were proud of their tower.

+
+"The pouch is where the kangaroo keeps her baby safe and warm. It is like a special blanket that she can wrap around her baby," mom explained.
+
+"Wow, that is amazing. How does she do that?" Leo asked.
+
+"Kangaroos have been doing that for a very long time. They are ancient animals. They have been living on this land since before people were here," mom said.
+
+"Really? How do you know that?" Mia asked.
+
+"Because I have seen pictures and bones of kangaroos that are very old. They are in museums and books. Maybe we can go and see them someday," mom said.
+
+"I would like that. Kangaroos are so cool. I wish I had a pouch too," Leo said.
+

+"Wow, these look delicious," their mom said. She took a sandwich and bit into it. "Mmm, so good. You are such good chefs."
+
+"Their dad also took a sandwich and ate it. "Yes, these are very tasty. And healthy too. You used whole wheat bread and ham and cheese. Good choices."
+
+Ben and Lily felt happy and proud. They also ate some sandwiches and drank some juice. They enjoyed their lunch and their family time. They liked to make food and share it with their mom and dad. They learned that spreading butter was easier when it was soft. And they learned that making sandwiches was fun.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to balance on the logs and stones that made a path in the grass. They pretended they were explorers in a jungle.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can balance on this big log!" Tom said. He walked slowly and carefully on the log, holding his arms out.
+
+"Wow, Tom, you are very good!" Lily said. She wanted to try too. She followed Tom on the log, but it was wobbly and she lost her balance. She fell off the log and landed on the grass.
+
+"Ouch!" Lily said. She rubbed her knee. It was red and hurt.
+
+"Are you okay, Lily?" Tom asked. He jumped off the log and ran to her. He helped her stand up.
+
+"I'm okay, Tom. It's just a little scratch." Lily said. She smiled bravely. She did not want to cry.
+
+"Let's go to the swings, Lily. They are more fun and less wobbly." Tom said. He took her hand and they walked to the swings.
+
+"Okay, Tom. But first, let's tidy up the path. We don't want to leave the logs and stones messy." Lily said. She liked to keep things tidy.
+
+"Okay, Lily. Let's tidy up the path. Then we can swing high and low." Tom said. He liked to swing with Lily.
+
+They picked up the logs and stones and put them back where they found them. They made the path tidy again. Then they ran to the swings and had more fun. They were happy and good friends.
+Sara was a little girl who liked to sing. She had a sweet voice that made people happy. She sang every day, at home, at school, and in the park. She sang about the sun, the moon, the stars, and the flowers.
+
+One day, Sara saw a big poster on the wall. It said: "Sing for the King! The King needs a new singer for his palace. Come and show your voice on Saturday. The best singer will win a prize." Sara was very excited. She wanted to sing for the king. She wanted to win the prize. She told her mom and dad.
+
+"Can I go, please?" she asked.
+
+"Of course, dear," they said. "You have a sweet voice. You can sing for the king."
+
+Sara was very happy. She practiced her songs every day. She dreamed of singing for the king.
+
+On Saturday, Sara and her parents went to the palace. There were many other children who wanted to sing for the king. They all waited in a long line. Sara was nervous. She hoped the king would like her voice.
+
+When it was her turn, she walked up to the stage. She saw the king sitting on a big throne. He looked bored. He had heard many singers, but none of them made him smile.
+
+"Hello, little girl," he said. "What is your name?"
+
+"Sara," she said.
+
+"What are you going to sing for me?" he asked.
+
+"A song about the sun," she said.
+
+"Very well," he said. "Let me hear your voice."
+
+Sara took a deep breath. She opened her mouth. But nothing came out. She tried again. But still nothing. She had lost her voice. She felt a tickle in her throat. She had a cold.
+
+She started to cry. She had no voice. She could not sing for the king. She had no chance to win the prize.
+
+The king saw her tears. He felt sorry for her. He got up from his throne. He walked up to her. He gave her a hug.
+
+"Don't cry, little girl," he said. "You don't need a voice to make me happy. You have a sweet heart. That is more important than a voice. You are the best singer for me. You win the prize."
+
+He gave her a big crown. It sparkled like the sun. Sara smiled. She felt better. She thanked the king. She hugged him back.
+
+She had no voice. But she had a sweet heart. And she had a new friend. The king.
+Anna and Ben were going to the beach with their mom and dad. They were very happy and excited. They had to pack their things in a big bag. Anna had a pink bucket and a yellow shovel. Ben had a blue bucket and a green shovel.
+
+"Can I have your bucket, Anna?" Ben asked. He liked the pink bucket more than his own.
+
+"No, Ben, this is my bucket. You have your own bucket," Anna said. She did not want to share her bucket with Ben. She was jealous of his green shovel.
+
+"But I want the pink bucket. It is prettier than the blue bucket," Ben said. He was jealous of her pink bucket.
+
+"Stop it, you two," mom said. "You have to share your toys. You can take turns with the buckets and shovels. Now, hurry up and pack. We have to go soon."
+
+Anna and Ben packed their buckets and shovels in the bag. They also packed their hats, sunglasses, towels, and sunscreen. They were ready to go to the beach. They hoped they would have fun and not fight over their toys.
+Ben and Mia are twins. They like to play outside with their dog, Spot. Spot is a big, brown dog who likes to run and bark. One day, Ben and Mia see a new animal in their yard. It is a goat.
+
+"Look, a goat!" Ben says. "What is it doing here?"
+
+"I don't know," Mia says. "Maybe it is lost. It is eating our grass."
+
+"Hey, goat, stop eating our grass!" Ben shouts. He runs to the goat and tries to push it away. But the goat is strong and does not move.
+
+"Ben, be careful!" Mia says. "The goat has horns. It can hurt you."
+
+Mia runs to Ben and helps him. They try to pull the goat by its ears, but the goat does not like that. It shakes its head and makes a loud noise.
+
+"Baa! Baa!" the goat says.
+
+"Wow, the goat can talk!" Ben says.
+
+"No, silly, that is how goats say hello," Mia says.
+
+"Hello, goat," Ben and Mia say.
+
+"Baa! Baa!" the goat says again.
+
+"Are you hungry, goat?" Mia asks.
+
+"Baa! Baa!" the goat nods.
+
+"Maybe we can feed the goat something else," Ben says. "Something that is not our grass."
+
+"Like what?" Mia asks.
+
+Ben looks around and sees a basket of apples on the porch. He runs to get it and brings it to the goat.
+
+"Here, goat, have some apples," Ben says. He gives the goat an apple and the goat takes a bite.
+
+"Mmm, mmm!" the goat says.
+
+"See, the goat likes apples," Ben says.
+
+"Maybe the goat can be our friend," Mia says.
+
+"Maybe," Ben says. "But we have to ask Mom and Dad first. Maybe they know where the goat came from."
+
+"Okay," Mia says. "But can we play with the goat until then?"
+
+"Sure," Ben says. "But we have to be gentle and nice. The goat is useful. It can give us milk and cheese and wool."
+
+"Wow, really?" Mia says.
+
+"Yes, really," Ben says. "And maybe it can teach us how to say baa."
+
+"Baa! Baa!" the goat says.
+
+"Baa! Baa!" Ben and Mia say.
+
+They laugh and hug the goat. Spot barks and joins them. They have a lot of fun with their new friend.
+Tim and Sue were playing in the park. They saw a big tree with a hole. Tim said, "Let's see what is inside." Sue said, "No, it might be dangerous." Tim said, "Don't be scared. I guess it is a secret cave." He ran to the tree and looked inside.
+
+Sue heard a loud buzz. She saw many yellow and black bugs flying out of the hole. They were bees. They had a hive inside the tree. They were angry that Tim disturbed them. They flew to Tim and stung him all over. Tim screamed and ran away. Sue followed him.
+
+They ran to their mom, who was sitting on a bench. She saw Tim's face and arms covered with red bumps. She said, "Oh no, what happened?" Sue said, "Tim looked inside a bee hive. The bees were fierce. They hurt him." Mom said, "That was very silly of Tim. He should have listened to Sue. Now we have to go to the doctor." She took Tim and Sue to the car and drove away.

+Tom and Lily point at each other. They blame each other.
+
+Mom shakes her head. She takes the car. She takes the dolls. She takes the hair clips.
+

+
+She puts Tom and Lily in different corners. They have no toys. They have no friends. They are lonely.

+
+Then, they see a big ruler on the table. It is a tool to measure things. Sara has an idea. She says they can use the ruler to measure their blocks. They can see who has more blocks and who has less. Then, they can share the blocks equally. Ben likes the idea. He thinks it is fair and fun.
+
+They start to measure their blocks. They put them in a line next to the ruler. They count how many blocks they have. Sara has 20 blocks. Ben has 15 blocks. Sara has 5 blocks more than Ben.

+Tom is a boy who likes to speak a lot. He speaks at home, at school, and with his friends. He speaks about his toys, his games, and his dreams. He thinks he knows everything and he does not listen to others.
+
+One day, he goes to the zoo with his class. He sees many animals that he has never seen before. He speaks loudly and tells his friends what the animals are and what they do. He does not let his friends speak or ask questions. He does not listen to the teach who tries to tell him more about the animals.
+
+When they reach the lion cage, Tom sees a big and beautiful lion. He speaks and says, "Look, that is a lion. He is the king of the animals. He is strong and brave and famous. He can roar and scare everyone. I want to be like him."
+
+The lion hears Tom and looks at him. He does not like Tom's voice and his words. He thinks Tom is rude and noisy and silly. He decides to teach him a lesson. He roars very loudly and makes Tom jump and scream. He says, "You are not like me. You are not a king. You are not strong or brave or famous. You are just a boy who speaks too much and does not listen. You should learn to be quiet and respectful and humble. That is how you can be a good person."
+
+Tom is very scared and ashamed. He realizes that he was wrong and that he hurt his friends and his teach. He says, "I am sorry, lion. I am sorry, friends. I am sorry, teach. You are right. I spoke too much and I did not listen. I will try to be better. I will try to listen and learn and be kind. Thank you for teaching me."
+
+The lion nods and smiles. He says, "You are welcome, boy. I hope you remember this lesson. Now go and enjoy the zoo. There are many wonderful animals to see and hear and learn from. But remember, sometimes it is better to be silent than to speak."
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: The story teaches that speaking too much and not listening can be rude and foolish, and that being quiet and respectful can be wise and good. It also teaches that we can learn from different sources, even from animals, and that we should be humble and grateful.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the park. They liked to slide, swing, and run. One day, they saw a big van in the park. It was jolly and bright. It had pictures of balloons and clowns on it.
+
+"What is that?" Tom asked.
+
+"Maybe it is a fun van," Lily said.

+They ran to the van. A man opened the door. He had a big smile and a red nose. He was a clown.
+
+"Hello, kids," he said. "Do you want to see a magic show?"
+
+"Yes, please," Tom and Lily said.
+
+The clown invited them inside the van. It was full of toys and tricks. He showed them how to make a flower rise from a pot, how to pull a rabbit from a hat, and how to juggle balls. Tom and Lily laughed and clapped.

+Lila was sad. She did not like the gloomy day. The sky was gray and the rain was cold. She wanted to play outside with her friends, but they could not come. She looked at her toys, but they did not make her happy.
+
+She went to her mom and said, "Mom, I am bored. Can you tell me a story?"
+
+Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said, "Of course, my dear. Come, sit with me on the couch. I will tell you a story about a princess with long, golden hair."
+
+Lila liked stories about princesses. She sat next to her mom and listened. Her mom told her how the princess lived in a castle with her father, the king, and her mother, the queen. She told her how the princess loved to sing and dance and play with her friends. She told her how the princess had a magic comb that made her hair shine and sparkle.
+
+Lila was curious. She asked, "Mom, what did the princess do with her magic comb?"
+
+Her mom said, "Well, the princess used her magic comb to help others. She would comb her hair and then share some of the magic with people who were sad or sick or lonely. She would make them smile and feel better. She was very kind and generous."
+
+Lila was impressed. She said, "Wow, mom, that is amazing. I wish I had a magic comb like that. I would share it with you and dad and my friends. I would make everyone happy."
+
+Her mom kissed her on the forehead and said, "You don't need a magic comb, my sweet. You have a magic heart. You make me happy every day with your love and your laughter. You are my princess."
+
+Lila felt warm and cozy. She hugged her mom and said, "I love you, mom. You are the best storyteller. Thank you for telling me a story."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you too, Lila. You are welcome. Now, do you want to hear another story?"
+
+Lila nodded and smiled. She said, "Yes, please, mom. Tell me another story."
+
+They snuggled on the couch and her mom told her another story. Lila forgot about the gloomy day. She was happy.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big slide and wanted to go on it. But there was a problem. A mean witch was sitting on the top of the slide. She had a big hat and a long nose. She said, "This is my slide. No one can use it. Go away!"
+
+Ben and Lily were scared of the witch. They did not want to make her angry. They looked for another slide, but they could not find one. They were sad. They wanted to have fun.
+
+Then they saw a boy with a red cape. He was smiling and running. He came to the slide and said to the witch, "Hello, witch. Can I borrow your hat? It looks very nice. I want to try it on."
+
+The witch was surprised. She liked her hat. She did not want to give it to anyone. But she was curious. She said, "Why do you want my hat?"
+
+The boy said, "Because it is very windy today. And I want to fly with my cape. Your hat will help me fly higher and faster. Please, let me borrow it. I will give it back soon."
+
+The witch thought for a moment. She wanted to see the boy fly. She said, "Okay, you can borrow my hat. But only for a little while. And be careful. It is very special."
+
+The boy said, "Thank you, witch. You are very kind." He took the hat and put it on his head. He ran to the edge of the slide and jumped. He spread his cape and flew in the air. He looked very happy.
+
+Ben and Lily watched the boy fly. They clapped and cheered. They thought he was very brave and clever. They wanted to fly too.
+
+The witch watched the boy fly. She was angry and jealous. She wanted her hat back. She shouted, "Hey, boy! Come back here! Give me my hat! You tricked me!"
+
+But the boy did not listen. He flew away. He said, "Sorry, witch. I cannot hear you. The wind is too loud. Goodbye!"
+
+The witch was furious. She tried to get off the slide, but she could not. She was stuck. She had forgotten that her hat was magic. It made her stick to the slide. She could not move. She screamed and cried.
+
+Ben and Lily saw the witch stuck on the slide. They laughed and said, "Silly witch. You should not be mean. You should share. Now you have no hat and no slide. You are embarrassed."
+
+They ran to the slide and climbed up. They slid down and had fun. They did not care about the witch. They were happy. They said, "Thank you, boy. You are very smart. You taught the witch a lesson. You are our friend."
+Lily liked math. She liked to count and add and take away. She liked to draw shapes and colors. She liked to make patterns and puzzles. Math was fun for Lily.
+
+But one day, Lily had a new math teacher. His name was Mr. Fox. He was not fun. He was mean. He gave Lily and her friends hard math problems. He did not help them when they were stuck. He did not smile or praise them when they did well. He only yelled and scolded them when they made mistakes. Math was not fun for Lily anymore.
+
+Lily tried to do her best. She wanted to be perfect. She wanted Mr. Fox to like her. But no matter how hard she tried, she always got something wrong. Mr. Fox always found something to scream at her. He made her feel bad and sad and scared.
+
+One day, Lily had enough. She could not take it anymore. She did not want to do math with Mr. Fox. She did not want to be perfect for him. She wanted to be happy and free. She wanted to have fun with math again.
+
+So, when Mr. Fox gave her another hard math problem, she did not do it. She did not write anything on her paper. She did not look at him. She did not care. She just screamed. She screamed loud and long. She screamed until her throat hurt. She screamed until Mr. Fox stopped yelling. She screamed until everyone looked at her.
+
+Lily felt better. She felt brave and strong. She felt proud and happy. She did not care what Mr. Fox thought. She did not need to be perfect for him. She just needed to be herself. She liked math. She liked to count and add and take away. She liked to draw shapes and colors. She liked to make patterns and puzzles. Math was fun for Lily again.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with their bikes. They had a big bell on each bike that they could ring to make noise. They liked to ring their bells when they rode on the sidewalk or in the park.
+
+One day, they decided to ride their bikes on the road, where there was a lot of traffic. They thought it would be fun to ring their bells at the cars and trucks that passed by. They did not listen to their mom, who told them to stay on the sidewalk and be careful.
+
+As they rode on the road, they saw a fat man driving a big truck. He was going very fast and did not see them. Tom and Lily rang their bells as loud as they could, but the fat man did not hear them.

+They say, "Mommy, can we play a little more? We do not want to help with the vegetables. We do not like them." Mommy says, "No, you cannot play. You have to help me. Vegetables are good for you. They make you strong and healthy. And you have to clean your room after dinner. It is very messy and dirty."
+
+Lisa and Ben are sad. They do not want to help with the vegetables. They do not want to clean their room. They want to play with their toys. They think Mommy is mean and unfair. They go to the kitchen and wash the vegetables. They cut them with the safe knife. They are very careful not to cut their fingers.
+
+Mommy says, "Thank you, Lisa and Ben. You are very good helpers. Now the soup is ready. Let's go to the table and eat." Lisa and Ben are hungry. They smell the soup. It smells good. They taste the soup. It tastes good. They are surprised. They like the soup. They eat the vegetables. They say, "Mommy, this soup is yummy. We like the vegetables. They are not yucky and bitter. They are sweet and soft."
+
+Mommy says, "I'm glad you like the soup. See, vegetables are not so bad. They are delicious and nutritious. You should eat them more often. Now, can you please clean your room? It will make me very happy." Lisa and Ben say, "Yes, Mommy. We will clean our room. We are sorry we did not listen to you. You are not mean and unfair. You are nice and caring. We love you, Mommy." They hug Mommy and go to clean their room. They are happy. They learned a lesson. They will not forget to clean their room and to eat their vegetables.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a big green fruit on the tree. It looked like a ball.
+
+"Let's get it!" Ben said. He climbed on a chair and reached for the fruit.
+
+"Be careful!" Lily said. She was scared. She did not like to climb.
+
+Ben got the fruit and came down. He was happy. He held the fruit in his hand. It was a lime.
+
+"Look, Lily, I got it!" he said. He showed her the lime.
+
+Lily looked at the lime. She was curious. She wanted to try it.
+
+"Can I have a bite?" she asked.
+
+"Sure!" Ben said. He was nice. He shared the lime with Lily.
+
+They both took a bite of the lime. They made a funny face. The lime was sour. It hurt their mouth.
+
+"Yuck!" they said. They spit out the lime.
+
+They did not like the lime. They threw it away.
+
+They learned a lesson. They learned that not all fruits are sweet. They learned that they should not take things without asking. They learned that they should be careful with new things.
+
+They hugged each other. They were still friends. They went to play with something else. They had fun.
+Tom and Sue were hungry. They wanted to eat something yummy. They saw a big potato on the table. It was dirty and brown.
+
+"Let's bake the potato!" Tom said. "It will be hot and soft."
+
+"OK!" Sue said. "But we have to wash it first. It is dirty."
+
+They took the potato to the sink. They turned on the water. They rubbed the potato with their hands. The dirt came off. The potato was clean and shiny.
+
+They put the potato on a plate. They poked it with a fork. They put it in the oven. They waited for a long time.
+
+Ding! The oven made a sound. The potato was ready. They took it out. They cut it open. They put some butter and cheese on it.
+
+"Mmm, it smells good!" Tom said.
+
+"Let's eat!" Sue said.
+
+They ate the potato. It was hot and soft and yummy. They were happy. They shared the potato. They said thank you. They cleaned up the plate. They hugged each other. They were full and sleepy. They went to bed. They dreamed of potatoes.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play together. One day, they have a task. They have to clean their room. Mom says they can have a snack when they finish.
+
+Lily and Tom start to pick up their toys. They put them in the box. They find a book. It has pictures of animals. Lily likes animals. She wants to look at the book.
+
+"Tom, look at this book!" Lily says. She opens the book. She turns the pages. She sees a cat, a dog, a bird, and a fish.
+
+Tom looks at the book. He likes animals too. He wants to look at the book with Lily. He sits next to her. He turns the pages. He sees a cow, a pig, a duck, and a horse.
+
+They forget about their task. They look at the book for a long time. They make sounds like the animals. They laugh and have fun.
+
+Mom comes to their room. She sees the book. She sees the toys. She sees the mess.
+
+"Lily and Tom, what are you doing?" Mom asks. "You have not finished your task. You have to clean your room."
+
+Lily and Tom look at Mom. They look at the book. They look at the toys. They look at the mess. They feel sorry.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Lily and Tom say. "We like the book. We forgot our task. We will clean our room now."
+
+Mom smiles. She is not angry. She is glad they like the book. She is glad they are friends. She helps them clean their room. She gives them a snack. She reads the book with them. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play in the garden. They had many toys, like balls, cars, dolls and blocks. But they did not like to organize their toys. They left them everywhere in the garden, on the grass, on the dirt, on the flowers.
+
+One day, it rained a lot. The garden became very wet. Lily and Tom wanted to play, but they could not find their toys. They were buried under the water, the mud and the leaves. They were sad and angry.
+
+"Where are my dolls?" Lily cried.
+
+"Where are my cars?" Tom shouted.
+
+They looked and looked, but they could not see their toys. They only saw a mess.
+
+Then they heard a voice. It was their neighbor, Mr. Lee. He was an old man who loved his garden. He had many plants, like roses, sunflowers, tomatoes and herbs. He always organized his garden. He watered his plants, he pulled out the weeds, he put his tools in a shed.
+
+"Hello, Lily and Tom," Mr. Lee said. "Why are you so unhappy?"
+
+"We can't find our toys," Lily and Tom said. "They are lost in the wet garden."
+
+Mr. Lee smiled. He said, "Maybe you should organize your toys. If you put them in a box or a basket, you can keep them safe and dry. And you can also make your garden look nice and clean."
+
+Lily and Tom thought about what Mr. Lee said. They realized he was right. They said, "Thank you, Mr. Lee. You are very wise. We will organize our toys from now on."
+
+They asked Mr. Lee to help them find their toys. He agreed. They worked together, and soon they found all their toys. They were dirty and wet, but they were happy. They put them in a big box and carried them to their house. They also picked up the trash and the sticks from the garden. They made the garden look nice and clean.
+
+They thanked Mr. Lee again and said goodbye. They learned a lesson. They learned that organizing their toys was good for them and for the garden. They decided to do it every day. They also decided to help Mr. Lee with his garden sometimes. They became better friends and better neighbors.
+Lily and Max are playing in the park. They see a big ball near the slide. Lily runs to the ball and picks it up. She wants to kick it.
+
+"Let me kick it too!" Max says. He runs after Lily and tries to grab the ball.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily says. She holds the ball tight and runs away from Max.
+
+Max is angry. He chases Lily and shouts. "Give me the ball! Give me the ball!"
+
+Lily is scared. She does not want to share the ball. She kicks it as hard as she can. The ball flies in the air and lands on a bench. On the bench, there is a man with a bag of treats.
+
+The man is surprised. He sees the ball and the treats. He hears Lily and Max. They are loud.
+
+"Hey, kids, what are you doing?" the man says. He picks up the ball and the treats.
+
+Lily and Max stop running. They look at the man. They want the ball and the treats.
+
+"Sorry, sir, we were playing with the ball," Lily says.
+
+"Can we have the ball and some treats, please?" Max says.
+
+The man smiles. He sees that Lily and Max are sorry. He gives them the ball and some treats.
+
+"Here you go, kids. You can have the ball and some treats. But next time, be careful and share nicely, okay?" the man says.
+
+Lily and Max nod. They say thank you to the man. They take the ball and the treats. They go to the slide and play together. They are happy. They are friends.
+Tom and Sue like to play with their toys. They have a big ship that can float on water. They also have a small car that can go fast on the floor. One day, they decide to have a race with their toys.
+
+"Ready, set, go!" Tom says, and pushes his car with his hand. Sue puts her ship in a tub of water and blows on it. The car and the ship zoom away from them.
+
+"Look, my ship is faster than your car!" Sue says, and laughs.
+
+"No, it is not! My car is faster than your ship!" Tom says, and runs after his car.
+
+They watch their toys go around the room. The car goes under the table, and the ship goes near the window. They cheer for their toys.
+
+But then, something bad happens. The car hits a book on the floor, and flips over. The ship hits a curtain on the window, and falls out. Tom and Sue gasp.
+
+"Oh no, our toys!" they say, and run to get them.
+
+They pick up their toys and look at them. The car has a dent on its side, and the ship has a crack on its hull.
+
+"They are broken!" Tom says, and frowns.
+
+"They are cheap!" Sue says, and cries.
+
+They hug their toys and feel sad. They wish they had better toys that would not break so easily. They wish they had not raced their toys so hard. They wish they could fix their toys.
+
+They look at each other and say, "I'm sorry."
+
+They hug each other and say, "It's okay."
+
+They decide to play with their toys anyway, and pretend they are not broken. They still love their toys, and they still love each other. They are happy again.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with dolls and cars. One day, Anna gets an invitation to a party. It is from Lily, who is very nice and has a big house. Anna is happy and shows Ben the invitation.
+
+"Can I go to the party too?" Ben asks.
+
+"No, you can't. Lily only invited girls. You are a boy. You have to stay home," Anna says.
+
+Ben is sad and angry. He wants to go to the party too. He thinks Anna is mean. He decides to prevent Anna from going to the party. He has a plan.
+
+The next day, Anna is ready to go to the party. She wears a pretty dress and a bow in her hair. She has a gift for Lily. She says goodbye to her mom and walks to the bus stop.
+
+But Ben is waiting for her. He has a bucket of mud. He sneaks behind Anna and pours the mud over her head. Anna screams and cries. She is dirty and wet. Her dress and bow are ruined. Her gift is broken.
+
+"Ha ha, now you can't go to the party. You look ugly and smelly. Lily won't like you. You have to stay home," Ben says.
+
+Anna is very sad and angry. She wants to hit Ben. She runs back to her house. She tells her mom what Ben did. Her mom is shocked and angry. She calls Ben's mom and tells her what Ben did. Ben's mom is shocked and angry. She scolds Ben and makes him apologize to Anna. She also makes him stay home and do chores.
+
+Anna and Ben are not friends anymore. They don't play with dolls and cars. They don't talk to each other. They are lonely and unhappy. The end.
+Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. They run, jump, slide and swing. They are lively and happy.
+
+One day, they see a big hill. They want to climb it. They hold hands and start to go up. But the hill is steep and slippery. Ben trips on a rock and falls. He rolls down the hill. Mia sees him and laughs. She thinks it is funny.

+Sara loves to help her mom in the kitchen. She likes to stir the soup, cut the bread, and taste the cheese. She wants to support her mom and make her happy. Sometimes, she spills the soup or drops the bread, but her mom always smiles and says, "It's OK, Sara. You are a good helper."
+
+One day, Sara decides to surprise her mom with breakfast in bed. She wakes up early and puts on her pink bathrobe. She goes to the kitchen and looks for something to cook. She finds some eggs, some milk, and some jam. She tries to crack the eggs, but they make a mess on the floor. She tries to pour the milk, but it splashes on the counter. She tries to spread the jam, but it sticks to her fingers. She feels sad and frustrated. She thinks, "I am a bad helper."
+
+She hears her mom coming down the stairs. She quickly hides behind the table and hopes her mom won't see the mess. But her mom sees her and says, "Sara, what are you doing?" Sara comes out and says, "I wanted to make you breakfast, mom. But I ruined everything. I'm sorry, mom." She starts to cry.
+
+Her mom hugs her and says, "Sara, you are a sweet girl. You don't have to make me breakfast. You already make me happy every day. You are a good helper and a good daughter. I love you, Sara." She kisses her and says, "Come on, let's clean up together. And then we can have some delicious pancakes. How does that sound?"
+
+Sara smiles and says, "I love you too, mom. And I love pancakes. Thank you, mom." She wipes her tears and helps her mom clean up. They go to the dining room and enjoy their breakfast. Sara thinks, "This is the best morning ever."
+Lily and Ben like to act. They pretend to be different things and make funny noises. Sometimes they act like animals, sometimes they act like superheroes, sometimes they act like stars.
+
+One day, they decide to act like stars. They put on shiny clothes and make-up. They use a big box as a stage and a flashlight as a spotlight. They sing and dance and tell jokes.
+
+"Look at me, I'm a star!" Lily says. "I can sing very loud and very high!"
+
+"Me too, me too!" Ben says. "I can dance very fast and very low!"
+
+They have a lot of fun, but they are also very silly. They make so much noise that they wake up their baby brother, Max. Max starts to cry very loud and very high.
+
+"Oh no, what do we do?" Lily says. "We have to make him stop crying!"
+
+"Maybe we can act like stars for him!" Ben says. "Maybe he will like our show!"
+
+They run to Max's crib and try to make him laugh. They sing and dance and tell jokes, but Max does not laugh. He cries louder and louder.
+
+"Maybe he does not like stars!" Lily says. "Maybe he likes something else!"
+
+"Maybe he likes animals!" Ben says. "Let's act like animals for him!"
+
+They change their clothes and make-up. They use a blanket as a fur and a basket as a nest. They make animal noises and move like animals.
+
+"Look at me, I'm a lion!" Lily says. "I can roar very loud and very low!"
+
+"Me too, me too!" Ben says. "I can jump very fast and very high!"
+
+They have a lot of fun, but they are also very silly. They make so much noise that they scare Max. Max starts to cry louder and louder.
+
+"Maybe he does not like animals!" Lily says. "Maybe he likes something else!"
+
+"Maybe he likes superheroes!" Ben says. "Let's act like superheroes for him!"
+
+They change their clothes and make-up again. They use a towel as a cape and a spoon as a weapon. They make superhero noises and pose like superheroes.
+
+"Look at me, I'm a superhero!" Lily says. "I can fly very fast and very high!"
+
+"Me too, me too!" Ben says. "I can fight very strong and very low!"
+
+They have a lot of fun, but they are also very silly. They make so much noise that they knock over a lamp. The lamp falls and breaks. The flashlight goes out. The room becomes dark.
+
+"Oh no, what do we do?" Lily says. "We broke the lamp!"
+
+"We have to fix it!" Ben says. "We have to be superheroes!"
+
+They try to fix the lamp, but they do not know how. They make more noise and more mess. Max cries louder and louder.
+
+"Maybe we are not good at acting!" Lily says. "Maybe we are just silly!"
+
+"Maybe we should stop acting!" Ben says. "Maybe we should just be ourselves!"
+
+They take off their clothes and make-up. They put away their props and toys. They go to Max's crib and hug him. They say sorry and tell him they love him.
+
+"Look at us, we are not stars, or animals, or superheroes!" Lily says. "We are just Lily and Ben!"
+
+"Me too, me too!" Max says. He stops crying and smiles. He likes Lily and Ben.
+
+They have a lot of fun, and they are not silly. They are happy.
+Sara was very happy. She got an invitation to Lily's birthday party. She liked Lily very much. She wanted to go to the party and play with Lily and the other kids.
+
+But Sara's mom was not happy. She said, "Sara, you have been very naughty. You did not listen to me. You did not clean your room. You did not do your homework. You cannot go to the party."
+
+Sara was very sad. She said, "Mom, please, I want to go to the party. I am sorry I was naughty. I will clean my room and do my homework. Please, let me go."
+
+Sara's mom shook her head. She said, "No, Sara, you cannot go. You have to learn to be good. You have to understand that there are consequences for your actions. Maybe next time you will behave better."
+
+Sara cried and cried. She did not understand why her mom was so mean. She did not understand why she could not go to the party. She did not understand why she had to miss all the fun. She wished she could be with Lily and the other kids. She wished her mom would change her mind. She wished she could be happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Lily had a pink teddy bear that she loved very much. Ben had a blue car that he liked to zoom around.
+
+"Look at my car, Lily!" Ben said. "It can go very fast and make loud sounds. Vroom, vroom!"
+
+"Wow, your car is cool, Ben!" Lily said. "But look at my teddy bear. It is very soft and cuddly. It can hug me and keep me warm. Hug, hug!"
+
+They smiled at each other and shared their toys. They were happy friends.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Mom came into the living room and saw a big mess. There were toys everywhere, and some of them were broken. There was also sugar on the floor, on the couch, and on the toys. Mom was not happy.
+
+"Who did this?" Mom asked in a loud voice. "Who spilled the sugar and made this mess?"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They felt scared. They knew they had done something wrong. They had taken the sugar from the kitchen when Mom was not looking. They had wanted to make their toys sweet and tasty. But they had used too much sugar and dropped it everywhere.
+
+"It was me, Mom," Lily said in a small voice. "I'm sorry. I wanted to make my teddy bear sweet."
+
+"It was me, too, Mom," Ben said in a small voice. "I'm sorry. I wanted to make my car sweet."
+
+Mom sighed. She was angry, but she also loved her children. She knew they had made a mistake, but they had also told the truth.
+
+"Thank you for being honest, Lily and Ben," Mom said in a softer voice. "But you should not take things without asking. And you should not make a mess with the sugar. Sugar is not for toys. Sugar is for eating. But only a little bit, and only sometimes. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They felt sorry. They wanted to make Mom happy again.
+
+"Can you help me clean up the mess?" Mom asked.
+
+"Yes, Mom," Lily and Ben said.
+
+They got a broom and a dustpan and started to sweep the sugar. They also picked up their toys and put them back in their places. They worked hard and fast. They wanted to show Mom that they were good children.
+
+When they finished, Mom smiled. She gave them each a hug and a kiss.
+
+"Thank you for helping me, Lily and Ben," Mom said. "You did a good job. I'm proud of you. And I forgive you. But don't do it again, okay?"
+
+"Okay, Mom," Lily and Ben said.
+
+They felt happy again. They had learned their lesson. They had made up with Mom. And they still had their toys. But they did not want to make them sweet anymore. They liked them just the way they were.
+Tom and Sue were twins who liked to play in the woods. They had a cabin there that their dad had built for them. It was small and cozy, with a bed, a table, and some toys. They also had a swing that hung from a big tree. They loved to swing high and feel the wind in their hair.
+
+One day, a famous man came to the woods. He was a movie star who wanted to make a film there. He saw the cabin and the swing and thought they were perfect for his story. He told his crew to set up their cameras and lights. He did not ask Tom and Sue if he could use their things. He just took them.
+
+Tom and Sue were very angry when they saw the famous man and his crew. They ran to their cabin and shouted, "This is our cabin! This is our swing! You can't use them without asking!" The famous man did not listen. He said, "I am a star. I can do what I want. Go away, kids. You are bothering me."
+
+Tom and Sue did not go away. They decided to make a plan. They waited until the famous man was on the swing, ready to act. Then they ran to the tree and cut the rope with a knife. The famous man fell to the ground with a loud thud. He was not hurt, but he was very surprised and scared. He looked at Tom and Sue and said, "What did you do? Why did you do that?"
+
+Tom and Sue said, "We did that because you were mean. You took our things without asking. You did not care about us. You only cared about yourself. That is not nice. You should say sorry and go away."
+
+The famous man felt ashamed. He realized he had been rude and selfish. He said sorry to Tom and Sue and gave them back their things. He also gave them some candy and a toy car as a gift. He said, "You are right, kids. I was wrong. You taught me a lesson. You are very brave and smart. Can we be friends?"
+
+Tom and Sue smiled and nodded. They said, "Yes, we can be friends. But next time, please ask before you use our things. And maybe you can play with us on the swing. It is fun."
+
+The famous man agreed. He played with Tom and Sue on the swing and had fun. He also made a film about them and their cabin. He called it "The Swing and the Cabin". It was a hit. Tom and Sue became famous too. But they did not forget to be nice and share. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and their dog, Spot. But they do not like to eat broccoli. Mom says broccoli is good for them, but they think it is yucky and green.
+
+One day, Mom makes broccoli for lunch. She puts it on their plates and tells them to eat it. Sara and Ben make faces and say no. They want to eat pizza or cookies instead. Mom says they have to eat some broccoli before they can have anything else.
+
+Sara and Ben try to hide their broccoli under their napkins or give it to Spot. But Mom sees them and says no. She says they have to eat at least one piece of broccoli each. Sara and Ben sigh and pick up their forks.
+
+Sara takes a small bite of broccoli and makes a funny noise. She does not like the taste. She tries to swallow it, but it is too big. She starts to cough and sneeze. "Achoo! Achoo!" she says. Broccoli flies out of her mouth and lands on the table.
+
+Ben sees Sara sneeze and laughs. He thinks it is funny. He takes a big bite of broccoli and tries to copy Sara. He wants to make her laugh too. He chews and chews and then sneezes. "Achoo! Achoo!" he says. Broccoli flies out of his mouth and lands on Mom's hair.
+
+Mom feels something wet and sticky on her head. She looks up and sees broccoli. She is not happy. She says, "Sara and Ben, what are you doing? That is not nice. You are wasting food and making a mess. You have to eat your broccoli, not sneeze it."
+
+Sara and Ben stop laughing and look at Mom. They see she is angry. They feel sorry. They say, "Sorry, Mom. We did not mean to sneeze. We do not like broccoli. It is yucky and green. Can we have something else, please?"
+
+Mom sighs and says, "No, you have to eat your broccoli. It is good for you. It makes you strong and healthy. And it is not yucky and green. It is tasty and green. If you eat it, you will grow up big and smart. And you will not sneeze so much."
+
+Sara and Ben look at each other. They do not believe Mom. They think broccoli is still yucky and green. But they do not want to make Mom more angry. They do not want to sneeze again. They want to play with their toys and their dog. So they decide to eat their broccoli. They take small bites and swallow them quickly. They make faces and say, "Yuck!" But they do not sneeze.
+
+Mom sees them eat their broccoli and smiles. She says, "Good job, Sara and Ben. You are brave and good. You ate your broccoli. Now you can have some pizza or cookies. And you can play with your toys and your dog. But first, let me clean this broccoli off my hair."
+Tom and Lily were at the circus with their mom and dad. They saw many brilliant things, like clowns, lions, and acrobats. They laughed and clapped their hands when the clowns made funny jokes. They gasped and held their breath when the lions roared and jumped through hoops. They cheered and applauded when the acrobats flew in the air and did flips.
+
+But there was one bad man at the circus. He was a thief. He sneaked around and took things from people's bags and pockets. He took a watch from a lady, a wallet from a man, and a toy from a boy. He thought no one saw him, but he was wrong.
+
+Tom and Lily saw him. They did not like him. They wanted to stop him. They had an idea. They whispered to each other and made a plan. They waited for the right moment.
+
+When the thief was near them, they pretended to be clowns. They put on funny hats and noses and made silly faces. They made the thief look at them. Then they tickled him and made him laugh. He dropped the things he took. He did not notice.
+
+Tom and Lily quickly picked up the things and ran to the people who owned them. They gave them back their watch, wallet, and toy. The people were happy and thanked them. They told the circus manager what happened. The circus manager called the police. The police came and caught the thief. He was not happy. He was sorry.
+
+Tom and Lily were heroes. The circus manager gave them a reward. He let them ride on the elephants and hug the clowns. The whole circus applauded them. They were brilliant. They had a lot of fun. They loved the circus.
+Lily wanted to play with her own screen. She liked to watch funny animals and sing songs on it. But her brother Max had the screen. He was playing a game with cars and roads. He did not want to share.
+
+"Max, give me the screen!" Lily said. "It is my turn!"
+
+"No, it is not!" Max said. "I am not done yet!"
+
+Lily felt frustrated. She tried to grab the screen from Max. But Max was bigger and stronger. He pushed Lily away. Lily fell on the floor and started to cry.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the room. She saw Lily crying and Max holding the screen. She was not happy.
+
+"Max, what are you doing?" Mom said. "Why are you not sharing with Lily?"
+
+Max looked at Mom. He knew he was in trouble. He did not want to lose the screen. But he also did not want to make Mom angry.
+
+"I am sorry, Mom," Max said. "I was playing a game. But I can share with Lily now."
+
+Mom smiled. She was glad that Max said sorry. She took the screen from Max and gave it to Lily.
+
+"Thank you, Mom," Lily said. She stopped crying and smiled too. She hugged the screen and turned it on.
+
+"Thank you, Max," Lily said. She looked at Max and saw that he was sad. She felt sorry for him. She wanted to be nice.
+
+"Do you want to watch with me?" Lily said. She moved closer to Max and showed him the screen.
+
+Max nodded. He felt better. He liked to watch funny animals and sing songs too. He moved closer to Lily and hugged her.
+
+"Thank you, Lily," Max said. He smiled and watched the screen with Lily.
+
+Mom watched them and felt happy. She was proud of them. They learned to share and be kind. She hugged them and kissed them.
+
+"I love you, Max and Lily," Mom said. "You are good kids."

+
+One day, a new boy comes to the park. His name is Ben. He has a big truck. He wants to play with Sara and Tom. But he is not polite. He takes their ball, their bike and their kite. He says they are his now. He does not share. He does not say please or thank you. He makes Sara and Tom sad and angry.
+
+Sara and Tom try to get their things back. But Ben is strong and mean. He pushes them and shouts at them. He says they are silly and stupid. He makes them cry.
+
+A lady sees what is happening. She is Ben's mom. She is not happy. She comes to the park. She scolds Ben. She says he is rude and selfish. She says he has to give back the things he took. She says he has to say sorry to Sara and Tom. She says he has to be nice and friendly. She says he has to learn to share and care. She says that is the right way to live.
+
+Ben feels ashamed. He gives back the ball, the bike and the kite. He says sorry to Sara and Tom. He asks them if they want to play with him and his truck. Sara and Tom are kind. They forgive Ben. They say yes. They play together in the park. They have fun in the park.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be polite and share with others. That is how you make friends and enjoy life.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the yard. They saw many leaves on the ground. They wanted to make a big pile of leaves to jump in. They got a rake and started to rake the leaves together.
+
+But then, they saw a big dog running towards them. The dog was happy and friendly. He wanted to play with Ben and Lily. He jumped into the pile of leaves and scattered them everywhere. He licked Ben and Lily's faces and wagged his tail.
+
+Ben and Lily laughed and hugged the dog. They did not mind the leaves. They liked the dog. They decided to name him Spot. They asked their mom if they could keep him. Their mom said yes, but they had to wipe the dog's paws before he came inside. They also had to wipe their own faces and hands, because they were dirty from the leaves.
+
+Ben and Lily wiped the dog's paws with a towel. They wiped their own faces and hands with another towel. Then they went inside with Spot. Their mom had made some cookies for them. They smelled delicious. Ben and Lily shared some cookies with Spot. They were happy. They had a new friend and a yummy snack.
+Sara and Tom 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 see what is on the other side.
+
+They hold hands and start to climb. They are happy and excited. They sing a song as they go. "Up, up, up we go, to the top of the hill we go, what will we see, what will we see, on the other side of the hill?"
+
+They reach the top and look around. They see a pond with ducks and frogs. They see a bridge with a troll. They see a tree with a swing. They see a lot of things they want to play with.
+
+They run down the hill to the pond. They want to feed the ducks and catch the frogs. But as they run, they trip on a rock and fall. They roll down the hill and hit the ground. They are hurt and scared. They cry and hug each other.
+
+A lady sees them and comes to help. She is kind and gentle. She picks them up and dusts them off. She checks their knees and elbows for cuts and bruises. She gives them a band-aid and a kiss. She asks them their names and where their parents are.
+
+Sara and Tom tell her their names and point to the park. They say they are sorry for running away. They say they wanted to see what was on the other side of the hill. They say they saw a lot of things, but they also had a bad happen.
+
+The lady smiles and says it's okay. She says they are brave and curious. She says they should always be careful and listen to their parents. She says she will take them back to the park and find their parents. She says she is glad they are not badly hurt.
+
+Sara and Tom thank her and hold her hands. They walk back to the park with her. They see their parents and run to them. They tell them what happened and show them their band-aids and kisses. They say they are sorry and they love them.
+
+Their parents hug them and say they love them too. They say they are glad they are safe and sound. They say they are proud of them for being honest and polite. They say they can play in the park some more, but they have to stay close and be careful.
+
+Sara and Tom agree and say they will. They wave goodbye to the lady and thank her again. They go back to play in the park. They have fun and learn from their happen. They are happy and grateful.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big tree with many branches. They wanted to climb the tree and see what was on top.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Ben said. He was impatient and ran to the tree. He grabbed a branch and pulled himself up.
+
+"Wait for me, Ben!" Lily said. She was careful and looked for a good place to climb. She saw a hole in the tree and wondered what was inside.
+
+Ben climbed higher and higher. He did not listen to Lily. He wanted to reach the top first. He saw a bird's nest and reached for it.
+
+"Ben, stop!" Lily shouted. She saw something move in the hole. It was a snake. The snake was angry and hissed. It came out of the hole and bit Ben's leg.
+
+"Ow!" Ben cried. He let go of the branch and fell to the ground. He was hurt and scared.
+
+Lily climbed down quickly. She ran to Ben and hugged him. She called for help. A grown-up came and took Ben to the doctor.
+
+The doctor gave Ben some medicine and a bandage. He said Ben would be okay, but he had to rest and be careful.
+
+Lily stayed with Ben and said sorry. She said she should have waited for him and warned him about the snake.
+
+Ben said sorry too. He said he should have listened to Lily and not been impatient. He said he learned his lesson.
+
+They hugged and said they loved each other. They promised to be more patient and careful next time they climbed a tree.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to build things with wood and nails. They had a big box of wood and a small hammer.
+
+"Look, I made a house for my doll!" Lily said. She showed Tom her wood house. It had a roof and a door and a window.
+
+"That's nice, Lily," Tom said. "But I can make a better house. Watch me!" He took some wood and nails and started to hammer.
+
+Lily watched Tom. He was very fast and loud. He made a big house with two roofs and two doors and four windows. He smiled and said, "See? My house is bigger and better than yours!"
+
+Lily felt hurt. She liked her house. She thought it was pretty and cozy. She did not like Tom's house. She thought it was ugly and noisy. She said, "No, it's not! Your house is too big and too loud. My house is nicer and quieter!"
+
+Tom and Lily started to argue. They said mean things to each other. They did not want to play together anymore.
+
+Mom heard them from the kitchen. She came out and saw their wood houses and their angry faces. She sighed. She did not like to see them fight. She said, "Lily, Tom, stop it! You are both good at building houses. You can make different houses and still be friends. Why don't you share your wood and nails and help each other?"
+
+Lily and Tom looked at Mom. They felt sorry. They knew Mom was right. They said, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, Lily. Sorry, Tom."
+
+They hugged Mom and each other. They decided to share their wood and nails and help each other. They made a new house together. It had a roof and a door and a window and a chimney and a fence. They put their dolls inside and played happily. They liked their new house. They liked to be friends.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with dolls and cars and books. One day, they found a big box in the park. It was open and had many toys inside.
+
+"Wow, look at all these toys!" Lily said. "Can we take some?"
+
+Ben nodded. "Yes, let's take some. No one will know."
+
+They took some toys and ran back to their houses. They were very happy with their new toys.
+
+But the next day, they saw a poster in the park. It said: "Lost: Big box of toys. Please return if you find them. They belong to a sick boy who needs them. Thank you."
+
+Lily and Ben felt very bad. They had taken toys that were not theirs. They had made a sick boy sad.
+
+They looked at each other. They knew what they had to do.
+
+They ran back to their houses and got the toys. They brought them back to the park and put them in the box. They wrote a note that said: "We are sorry. We took some of your toys. We did not know they were yours. We hope you forgive us. We hope you get well soon. Lily and Ben."
+
+They left the note and the toys in the box and ran away.
+
+They felt better. They had done the right thing. They had learned a lesson. They had learned to be honest and kind. They had learned to forgive and ask for forgiveness.
+
+They hugged each other and smiled. They were still best friends. They went to play with their own toys and books. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in the living room. They had many toys, but they always wanted the same one. They were jealous of each other and often fought.
+
+One day, they saw a shiny red car on the fireplace. It was a gift from their grandma, who was coming to visit. They both wanted the car, but it was too high for them to reach. They tried to climb on the sofa, but they fell down. They tried to use a chair, but it was too heavy. They tried to use a broom, but it was too short.
+
+They had an idea. They saw a big box in the corner. It was full of books and clothes that their mom wanted to remove. They dragged the box to the fireplace and pushed it against the wall. They climbed on the box and reached for the car.
+
+But the box was not stable. It tilted and slipped. Ben and Lily lost their balance and fell. The box fell too, and hit the fireplace. The fireplace was old and weak. It broke and crumbled. The car fell and smashed. The bricks and dust fell and covered Ben and Lily.
+
+They screamed and cried. Their mom heard them and ran to the living room. She was shocked and scared. She removed the bricks and dust and hugged Ben and Lily. They were hurt and dirty. They were sorry and sad.
+
+Their grandma arrived and saw the mess. She was angry and disappointed. She took back her gift and left. Ben and Lily had no car, no fireplace, and no grandma. They had a bad ending.
+Anna and Ben liked to play in the woods behind their house. They knew the way to the big tree with the swing and the pond with the frogs. But one day, they saw a new path that they had never seen before. It looked rough and dark, but also exciting.
+
+"Let's go see where it goes," Ben said.
+
+"OK, but we have to be back before lunch," Anna said.
+
+They followed the path, which twisted and turned and went up and down. They saw strange flowers and birds and bugs. They heard noises that made them curious and scared. They forgot about the time and the way back.
+
+Suddenly, they came to a clearing with a big house. It was old and broken and had no windows or doors. It looked like no one lived there.
+
+"Wow, look at that," Ben said. "Maybe there is treasure inside."
+
+"I don't know, Ben. It looks creepy. Maybe we should go back," Anna said.
+
+But Ben was already running towards the house. He wanted to explore and find something cool. He did not listen to Anna. He ran inside the house and disappeared.
+
+"Ben, wait!" Anna shouted. She ran after him, but she could not see him. She only saw dark rooms and dusty stairs and spider webs. She called his name, but he did not answer. She felt lost and alone.
+
+She wished they had never followed the new path. She wished they had stayed at the big tree or the pond. She wished Ben would come back. She wished she could disappear too.
+Sam and Mia were adventurous kids. They liked to explore new places and find new things. One day, they saw a big hole in the ground near their house. They wondered what was inside.
+
+"Let's go and see!" Sam said. "Maybe we can find some minerals. They are shiny and pretty."
+
+"OK, but we have to be careful. It might be dark and dangerous." Mia said. "And we have to tell Mom and Dad where we are going."
+
+They took a flashlight and a backpack and went to the hole. They followed a narrow path that went down and down. They saw some rocks and dirt, but no minerals.
+
+"Maybe we have to go deeper." Sam said. "Come on, Mia, follow me."
+
+Sam walked faster and faster, but Mia was scared. She wanted to go back. She saw a sign that said "Danger! Do not enter!"
+
+"Sam, wait! We should not go there. It is not safe. Look at the sign!" Mia said.
+
+But Sam did not listen. He was curious and stubborn. He went past the sign and into a dark tunnel. Mia followed him, but she was crying.
+
+"Sam, please, let's go back. I don't like it here. It is too dark and too quiet." Mia said.
+
+But Sam did not answer. He was too far ahead. He saw a glimmer of light at the end of the tunnel. He thought it was a mineral. He ran towards it.
+
+But it was not a mineral. It was a trap. As soon as Sam touched the light, a loud noise and a bright flash filled the tunnel. Sam screamed and fell to the ground. He was hurt and bleeding.
+
+Mia ran to him and tried to help him. But it was too late. Sam was gone. Mia was alone and scared. She wished she had never followed Sam. She wished they had listened to Mom and Dad. She wished they had stayed home.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not follow your curiosity into danger. Listen to the warnings and the rules. Stay safe and stay with your family.
+Anna likes to design things. She has many crayons and papers. She can make pictures of animals, houses, flowers and more. She likes to show her designs to her mom and dad. They always say she is very good.
+
+One day, Anna wants to design something new. She thinks of a big thing that can move and make noise. She remembers seeing a tank in a book. A tank is a big metal thing with a big gun and wheels. She thinks a tank is cool. She decides to design a tank.
+
+She takes a green crayon and a big paper. She draws a big green rectangle. Then she draws a smaller green rectangle on top. She adds a long green line for the gun. She draws many small circles for the wheels. She is happy with her design. She thinks her tank looks real.
+
+She shows her design to her mom and dad. They are surprised and proud. They say she is very clever. They ask her what her tank can do. She says her tank can go fast and shoot bad guys. She says her tank is green because green is her favorite color. She says she wants to make more designs of tanks. They hug her and say they love her. She is happy. She loves to design.
+Lily liked to organize her toys. She had a box for her dolls, a basket for her cars, and a shelf for her books. She felt happy when everything was in its place.
+
+One day, she decided to organize the bathroom. She saw many things that looked like toys: a brush, a comb, a toothbrush, a soap, a towel, and a duck. She took them all and put them in her box, basket, and shelf. She thought they would be happier there.
+
+But when Mommy came to the bathroom, she was not happy. She saw that all her things were gone. She asked Lily, "Where are my things, Lily? I need them to get ready."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I organized them, Mommy. They are in my room. Come and see."
+
+Mommy followed Lily to her room. She saw her things mixed with Lily's toys. She said, "Lily, these are not toys. These are things for the bathroom. They need to be in the bathroom, not in your room. The brush and the comb are for your hair, the toothbrush and the soap are for your teeth and your body, the towel is for drying yourself, and the duck is for playing in the water."
+
+Lily looked confused. She said, "But I wanted to organize them. I wanted them to be happy."
+
+Mommy hugged Lily and said, "I know, Lily. You are a good organizer. But some things belong in different places. They are happy where they are. And they are useful for us. Let's put them back in the bathroom, okay?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Okay, Mommy. I'm sorry. I will help you put them back."
+
+Mommy and Lily went back to the bathroom. They put the things where they belonged. Lily learned a new word: useful. She said, "Mommy, can I keep the duck? He is useful for playing in the water. And he is dry."
+
+Mommy smiled and said, "Yes, Lily. You can keep the duck. He is your toy. And he is dry. For now."
+Lily liked owls very much. She had a toy owl that she hugged every night. She wanted to see a real owl, but her mom said they were too far away. One day, her mom took her to a big store that had many animals. Lily saw a sign that said "Owls for sale. Cheap price." She ran to the cage and saw a brown owl with big eyes. She wanted to take it home.
+
+"Mom, mom, can I have the owl? Please, please, please?" Lily asked.
+
+Her mom looked at the sign and frowned. "No, Lily, we can't buy the owl. It's not a good idea. Owls are not pets. They need a lot of space and care. They are not happy in cages. And they are not cheap. They are very expensive to feed and keep."
+
+"But mom, it's so cute. And it's cheap. Look, it says so. Cheap price. And I will take good care of it. I will let it fly in the garden. I will give it mice and worms. I will love it so much." Lily said.
+
+She reached out her hand to touch the owl, but the owl snapped at her fingers. It made a loud noise and flapped its wings. Lily jumped back and cried. The owl looked angry and scared.
+
+"Lily, stop. Don't touch the owl. It's not friendly. It's not a toy. It's a wild animal. It doesn't want to be here. It doesn't want to be with you. It wants to be free. Come on, let's go. We'll find you another toy. A nice toy. A toy that you can play with and hug." Her mom said.
+
+She took Lily's hand and led her away from the cage. Lily looked back at the owl and felt sad. She wished she could have the owl, but she also wished the owl could be happy. She wondered if the owl would ever find a home. She hoped it would. She hoped it would fly away and find its friends. She hoped it would be free.
+Lily and Tom were playing in their room. They had many toys and books, but they liked to pretend they were in a different world. They opened the big wardrobe and went inside. It was dark and cozy.
+
+"Where are we now?" Lily asked.
+
+"We are in the forest," Tom said. "We have to find the magic river and bathe in it. Then we will have super powers."
+
+They crawled out of the wardrobe and looked around. They saw a green rug, a blue lamp and a yellow pillow. They pretended they were grass, a sky and a sun. They ran and jumped and rolled on the rug.
+
+"Look, there is the river!" Tom pointed to a long scarf that was hanging from a chair. "Let's go and bathe in it."
+
+They grabbed the scarf and wrapped it around them. They felt warm and happy.
+
+"Wow, I feel so strong and fast," Lily said. "What super power do you have?"
+
+"I can talk to animals," Tom said. "Listen, I hear a bird."
+
+He made a chirping sound and looked out of the window. He saw a bird on a branch. It was not moving.
+
+"Hello, bird," Tom said. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+But the bird did not answer. It was dead.
+
+Tom felt sad. He did not like to see dead things.
+
+"Lily, the bird is dead," he said. "It can't talk or play."
+
+Lily looked at the bird. She felt sad too. She did not understand why things died.
+
+"Why is the bird dead?" she asked.
+
+"I don't know," Tom said. "Maybe it was old or sick or hurt. Maybe it was cold or hungry or lonely. Maybe it was just its time to go."
+
+They were quiet for a moment. They wished they could help the bird.
+
+"Can we bury the bird?" Lily asked. "Maybe it will be happier in the ground."
+
+"OK," Tom said. "Let's find a box and a shovel."
+
+They put the scarf back on the chair and went to look for a box and a shovel. They found a shoe box and a spoon. They took them and the bird and went outside. They dug a hole in the garden and put the bird in the box. They covered it with dirt and said a prayer.
+
+"Goodbye, bird," they said. "We hope you are in a better place. We are sorry you are dead. We will remember you."
+
+They felt a little better. They went back to their room and hugged each other. They decided to play something else. They opened the wardrobe and went inside. They hoped to find a happier world.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to play dress-up and try on different styles of clothes. One day, her mom took her to the store to buy a new dress. Lily picked out a pretty pink one with lots of frills and bows. She loved it so much that she didn't want to take it off!
+
+Later that day, Lily's little brother, Max, was being very naughty. He was throwing his toys all around the house and making a big mess. Lily knew she had to do something to make him stop. So, she got a big sack and filled it with all of Max's toys. She told him that if he didn't clean up his mess, she would take all of his toys away.
+
+Max didn't believe her at first, but when he saw the sack full of toys, he knew she meant business. He quickly cleaned up his mess and promised to be a good boy from then on. Lily was happy that she could help her mom out and teach Max a lesson. And she looked stylish in her new dress while doing it!

+
+Lily asked the reindeer, "What's wrong? Do you belong to Santa Claus?"
+
+The reindeer replied, "Yes, I do. But I got lost on my way to the North Pole. Can you help me?"
+
+Lily was happy to help the reindeer. She gave him some food and water. Then, she took him to the North Pole, where he belonged. Santa Claus was very happy to see his reindeer back home. He thanked Lily for helping him find his reindeer. From that day on, Lily knew that she had made a new friend in the reindeer.
+Once upon a time, there was a little bear named Benny. Benny lived in a forest with his family and friends. One day, Benny went for a walk in the forest all by himself. He was having so much fun playing with the leaves and flowers that he didn't realize how far he had gone.
+
+Soon, Benny got lost and couldn't recognize where he was. He felt very upset and scared. But then, he remembered what his mom had told him about staying safe in the forest. He looked for the sun and followed it back to his home.
+
+Benny learned an important lesson that day. He realized that it's always important to pay attention to where you're going and to stay close to your loved ones. From then on, he never went too far from his family and friends in the forest.
+Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved going on adventures in the jungle. One day, he went on a walk and heard a loud noise. "What was that?" he asked.
+
+Suddenly, he saw a big rhinoceros. "Wow, he's huge!" Timmy said. But the rhinoceros was harmless and just wanted to say hello. "Hi there!" said the rhinoceros.
+
+Timmy was happy to meet a new friend. "Can I ride on your back?" he asked. "Sure thing!" said the rhinoceros. Timmy had a great time riding on the rhinoceros' back and they went on many adventures together. From that day on, Timmy and the rhinoceros were the best of friends.

+
+Lily's friend, Max, came over to play. When he saw Lily looking sad, he asked what was wrong. Lily told Max about her missing necklace. Max said he would help her look for it. 
+
+After searching for a while, Max found the necklace under Lily's bed. Lily was so happy that she hugged Max. She asked Max if she could lend him her necklace for a day as a thank you. Max was happy to wear the silver necklace and show it off to his friends.
+Once upon a time, there was a boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to play with his friends all day long. One day, Timmy hurt his knee while running. His mom took him to the doctor and the doctor said he needed rest to heal his knee.
+
+Timmy was sad because he couldn't play with his friends anymore. But his mom had an idea! She said they could go on a vacation to the beach. Timmy was so excited! He loved the beach and playing in the sand.
+
+At the beach, Timmy saw some other kids playing a game. It looked like fun, but they were very competitive. Timmy wanted to join in, but he was scared he wouldn't be good enough. His mom told him to try his best and have fun. Timmy played the game and had a great time, even though he didn't win. He learned that it's not always about winning, but having fun and trying your best.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved eating salad with her mommy. One day, they went to a restaurant and ordered a salad. The waiter asked how they wanted their meat cooked. Lily's mommy said "rare, please". 
+
+Lily didn't know what that meant, so she asked her mommy. "It means the meat is still a little pink inside," her mommy explained. Lily thought that was funny and told a joke. "Why did the tomato turn red? Because it saw the salad dressing!" she giggled. 
+
+Her mommy laughed and said, "That's a good one, Lily!" They enjoyed their salad and joked around while they ate. It was a happy day for both of them.

+Anna loved to watch the birds in the park. She liked their colors and their songs. She wanted to learn more about them. One day, she saw a big book about birds in the library. She asked her mom if she could borrow it.
+
+"Sure, honey, you can borrow the book," her mom said. "But it has many hard words. Do you want me to read it to you?"
+
+Anna nodded. She was excited to hear the stories of the birds. She and her mom sat on a couch and opened the book. They saw pictures of different birds and their names. Some birds were small and some were big. Some birds were red and some were blue. Some birds could fly and some could swim.
+
+Anna pointed to a bird that had a long neck and a pink body. "What is this bird?" she asked.
+
+"That is a flamingo," her mom said. "It lives in warm places near water. It eats small animals that it finds in the mud. It can stand on one leg for a long time."
+
+Anna thought the flamingo was very pretty and funny. She wanted to see one in real life. "Can we go to the zoo and see the flamingo?" she asked.
+
+"Maybe we can, someday," her mom said. "But the zoo is far away from here. We need to take a bus and a train to get there. It is a long trip."
+
+Anna felt sad. She wished the zoo was closer. She wondered if there was another way to see the flamingo. She looked at the book again. She saw a page that had a map of the world and the places where the birds lived. She saw a small picture of a flamingo and a word next to it. She asked her mom what the word was.
+
+"That is Africa," her mom said. "It is a big continent where many animals and people live. It is very far away from here. We need to take a plane to get there. It is a very long trip."
+
+Anna felt more sad. She wished Africa was closer. She wondered if there was another way to see the flamingo. She looked at the book again. She saw a page that had a picture of a bird feeder and some seeds. She saw a small picture of a bird that looked like a flamingo, but it was white and had a black beak. She asked her mom what the bird was.
+
+"That is a roseate spoonbill," her mom said. "It is a bird that is related to the flamingo, but it lives in North America. It likes to eat fish and insects. It has a spoon-shaped beak that helps it catch its food."
+
+Anna thought the roseate spoonbill was very pretty and interesting. She wanted to see one in real life. "Can we go to the park and see the roseate spoonbill?" she asked.
+
+"Maybe we can, someday," her mom said. "But the park is not near here. We need to take a car to get there. It is a short trip."
+
+Anna felt happy. She wished the park was closer, but she thought the car was fun. She wondered if there was another way to see the roseate spoonbill. She looked at the book again. She saw a page that had a picture of a bird house and some instructions. She saw a small picture of a roseate spoonbill and a word next to it. She asked her mom what the word was.
+
+"That is recommend," her mom said. "It means to suggest or to say that something is good. The book recommends that you make a bird house and put some seeds in it. Then you might attract some birds to your backyard. Maybe you will see a roseate spoonbill or another bird that you like."
+
+Anna thought the idea was very good and fun. She wanted to make a bird house and put some seeds in it. She asked her mom if they could do it.
+
+"Sure, honey, we can do it," her mom said. "We have some wood and some tools and some seeds. We can make a bird house together and hang it on a tree. Then we can watch the birds from our window."
+
+Anna was very excited. She hugged her mom and thanked her. She and her mom closed the book and went to the backyard. They made a bird house and put some seeds in it. They hung it on a tree and went to the window. They waited for the birds to come. They hoped to see a roseate spoonbill or a flamingo or another bird that they liked.

+
+They open the box. They find a small toy. It is a robot. It has buttons and lights and wheels. They press a button. The robot starts to move and speak.
+
+"Hello, I am Robo. I am your new friend. Do you want to play with me?" the robot says.
+
+Tom and Mia are very happy. They hug the robot and each other.
+
+"Wow, this is the best mineral ever!" Tom says.
+
+"Yes, it is. And the best surprise too!" Mia says.

+They play with the robot in the park. They have a lot of fun. They forget about the broken rock. They have a new treasure and a new friend.
+Tim and Sam are friends. 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.

+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors. Tom likes yellow blocks. Mia likes blue blocks.
+
+One day, they want to build a big tower with their blocks. Tom says, "Let's use yellow blocks. They are bright and sunny." Mia says, "No, let's use blue blocks. They are cool and pretty." They disagree. They do not want to share their blocks.
+
+They start to build their own towers with their own blocks. But they do not have enough blocks to make them very high. They look at each other's towers. They are not happy.
+
+Then, they see Ben. Ben is their neighbor. He is helpful. He has many blocks of different colors. He says, "Hi, Tom and Mia. Do you want to play with me? I have red, green, and purple blocks. We can make a rainbow tower."
+
+Tom and Mia look at Ben's blocks. They are curious. They say, "Yes, please. We want to play with you. We want to see your blocks." They go to Ben's house. They share their blocks with Ben. They use yellow, blue, red, green, and purple blocks. They make a rainbow tower. It is very big and beautiful.

+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to gather rocks. They had a big box where they kept their rocks. They liked to look at the rocks and see their colors and shapes. Sometimes they traded rocks with each other.
+
+One day, they found a new rock that was incredible. It was shiny and smooth and had many colors. They both wanted the rock for themselves. They started to argue and pull the rock.
+
+"Give me the rock, it's mine!" Lily said.
+
+"No, it's mine, I saw it first!" Ben said.
+
+They did not see the judge who was walking by. The judge was a big man who wore a black robe and a funny hat. He liked to make rules and decide who was right and who was wrong. He saw the children fighting over the rock and he stopped.
+
+"What are you doing, children?" the judge asked.
+
+"We are fighting over this rock, it's incredible!" Lily and Ben said.
+
+The judge looked at the rock and he smiled. He had an idea. He took the rock from the children and held it in his hand.
+
+"I will tell you what to do," the judge said. "You can both have the rock, but you have to share it. You can take turns to keep the rock in your box for one day. Then you have to give it to the other one. That way, you can both enjoy the rock and be friends."
+
+Lily and Ben thought about the judge's idea. They did not like it at first, but they did not want to lose the rock or their friend. They agreed to share the rock and thanked the judge.
+
+The judge gave them the rock and said goodbye. He was happy that he helped the children. He did not tell them that the rock was not a real rock, but a glass marble that he had dropped by accident. He thought it was a good joke and a good lesson. He walked away, laughing to himself.

+
+They saw a big box with a bow on it. They opened it and found a shiny blue bike. It had two wheels, a bell, and a basket. "Wow, a bike!" Sam said. "It is so cool!" Mia said. "Thank you, mom!"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "You're welcome, my loves. But there is only one bike. You have to take turns and share it, okay?"
+
+Sam and Mia nodded, but they both wanted to ride the bike first. They grabbed the bike and tried to pull it away from each other. "Let go, it's mine!" Sam said. "No, it's mine!" Mia said. They started to fight and yell.
+
+Mom heard them and came back. She was not happy. She said, "Stop it, right now! You are not being nice to each other. You have to learn to separate and share. If you can't do that, you can't play with the bike. I will take it away and put it in the garage. Do you understand?"
+
+Sam and Mia looked at each other and felt sorry. They did not want to lose the bike. They said, "We're sorry, mom. We will separate and share. We will play nicely."
+
+Mom said, "That's good. I'm glad you said that. Now, why don't you go to the backyard and play with the ball? It is still available and fun. You can take turns with the bike later, when you are calm and ready."
+
+Sam and Mia agreed. They hugged mom and said, "We love you, mom." They took the ball and went to the backyard. They played with the ball and had fun. They also learned to separate and share. They were happy twins.

+
+Lily's mom sees the box. She asks Lily and Tom what is in it. They say it is a start. They mean a surprise. Lily's mom opens the box. She sees the shiny things. She laughs.
+
+She tells Lily and Tom that the shiny things are not real. They are fake. They are for a play. Someone left the box in the park by mistake. Lily and Tom are sad. They thought they were rich.
+

+Sara was sick. She had a bad cough and a sore throat. Mommy gave her a pill to make her feel better. But Sara did not like the pill. It was big and bitter. She did not want to swallow it.
+
+Mommy said, "You have to take the pill, Sara. It will help you get well. Try to fit it in your mouth and drink some water."
+
+Sara tried to fit the pill in her mouth, but it was too hard. She spit it out and cried. She said, "I can't do it, Mommy. The pill is too big and yucky."
+
+Mommy hugged her and said, "It's okay, Sara. I have an idea. Let's break the pill into smaller pieces. Then it will be easier to fit in your mouth and swallow."
+
+Mommy broke the pill into four pieces and put them on a spoon. She added some honey to make them sweet. She said, "Now try again, Sara. You can do it. You are a brave and successful girl."

+
+Mommy smiled and said, "Yes, you are, Sara. I am so proud of you. You are a good listener and a good tryer. Now you will feel better soon. I love you, Sara."
+
+Sara hugged Mommy and said, "I love you too, Mommy. Thank you for helping me take the pill."
+Tim and Mia like to play with their toy cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make roads and bridges with their blocks and pretend to drive around.
+

+
+"Look, Mia, I have a brilliant red car with a stick on it!" Tim says.
+
+"Me too, Tim, I have a brilliant yellow car with a stick on it!" Mia says.

+They drive their cars to the living room, where there is a big rug. They see a candle on the table. They think the candle is pretty and smells good.
+
+"Let's pull the sticks and see what happens!" Tim says.
+
+"Okay, Tim, let's pull the sticks!" Mia says.
+

+
+"Help, help, fire, fire!" Tim and Mia scream.
+
+Mom and Dad hear them and run to the living room. They see the fire and grab a blanket. They put out the fire with the blanket and take the matches away from Tim and Mia.
+
+"Tim, Mia, what did you do?" Mom asks.
+
+"We played with the sticks, Mom, we did not know they make fire!" Tim says.
+
+"Those are not sticks, those are matches, and they are very dangerous!" Dad says. "You should never play with matches, they can hurt you and burn things!"
+
+"We are sorry, Mom, we are sorry, Dad, we did not mean to make fire!" Mia says.
+
+Mom and Dad hug Tim and Mia and tell them they are glad they are not hurt. They explain to them what matches are and how to be safe with fire. They also check the rug and the cars and see if they are damaged.
+
+"From now on, only play with your toy cars, not with matches, okay?" Mom says.
+
+"Okay, Mom, we promise, no more matches!" Tim and Mia say.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to help their dad deliver food to people. Their dad had a big truck with a grill on the back, where he cooked burgers and hot dogs. He was very compassionate and gave food to people who were hungry or sad.
+
+One day, they went to a park where there were many kids playing. Ben and Lily wanted to play too, but their dad said they had to stay in the truck and watch the grill. He said he would be back soon with more food.

+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to the garage. She sees the broken belt and the twins on the floor. She is not happy.
+
+"What are you doing?" she asks. "Why are you fighting over this old belt? It is not a toy. It is your grandpa's belt. He was in the army a long time ago. He gave it to me before he died. It is very special to me."
+
+Sam and Mia feel bad. They did not know the belt was mom's. They say they are sorry. They hug mom and each other.
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them back. She says it is okay. She says she loves them. She says they can play army, but they have to be careful and share. She says she will fix the belt later.

+
+"Quick. Let's put the photos back in the box." Max says.
+
+They try to be organized and slide the photos back in the box. But they are too many and too big. They do not fit well. They fall out and make more mess.
+

+
+"We are sorry, Mommy. We found a box of photos and we wanted to see them. They are very interesting." Lily and Max say.

+Lily and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They wanted to make soup for their mom, who was sick in bed. They found a big pot and filled it with water. Then they looked for things to put in the soup.
+
+"What about this?" Lily asked, holding a can of beans.
+
+"No, that's not good for soup. We need carrots and potatoes and noodles," Tom said.
+
+They opened the fridge and found some carrots and potatoes. They peeled them and cut them into small pieces. They also found a bag of noodles and poured some into the pot.
+
+"Is it ready?" Lily asked.
+
+"Not yet. We need to cook it on the stove," Tom said.
+
+He turned on the stove and put the pot on it. He saw some bubbles in the water.
+
+"Look, it's boiling!" he said.
+
+But then he smelled something bad. He saw some smoke coming from the pot.
+
+"Oh no, it's burning!" he said.
+
+He grabbed a wooden spoon and tried to stir the soup. But the spoon was too short and he burned his hand.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" he cried.
+
+Lily heard him and ran to the stove. She saw the smoke and the fire. She was fearful. She didn't know what to do.
+
+"Help, help!" she shouted.
+
+Mom heard them and got out of bed. She ran to the kitchen and saw the mess. She turned off the stove and took the pot off. She put it in the sink and ran some water over it.
+
+She hugged Lily and Tom and checked their hands.
+
+"Are you okay?" she asked.
+
+"We're sorry, mom. We wanted to make soup for you, but we messed up," Lily said.
+
+"It's okay, sweeties. I appreciate your effort, but you should never play with the stove. It's very dangerous. You could have hurt yourselves or started a fire," mom said.
+
+"We know, mom. We won't do it again. We love you," Tom said.
+
+"I love you too, my little chefs. How about we order some pizza instead?" mom said.
+
+They nodded and smiled. They were happy that mom was not angry. They helped her clean the kitchen and then waited for the pizza. They ate it together and watched a movie. They forgot about the soup and had a good time.
+Sara and Ben went to the toy store with Mom. They saw many fun things to play with. Sara liked the dolls and Ben liked the cars. But they both wanted the same toy. It was a big horn that made a loud noise when you pressed it.
+
+"Can we buy the horn, Mom?" Sara asked.
+
+"No, we can only buy one toy each. You have to choose something else," Mom said.
+
+"But I want the horn!" Ben said.
+
+"So do I!" Sara said.
+
+They both grabbed the horn and pulled hard. The horn broke in half and made a loud pop. The store lady came over and looked angry.
+
+"What did you do?" she asked.
+
+Sara and Ben felt guilty. They knew they did a bad thing. They let go of the horn and looked at Mom.
+
+"We're sorry, Mom," they said.
+
+Mom sighed and picked up the broken horn. She paid the store lady and took Sara and Ben out of the toy store.
+
+"You have to share and be careful with toys. You can't break them or fight over them," Mom said.
+
+Sara and Ben nodded. They felt sad and sorry. They did not get any toys that day. They learned a lesson. Next time, they would be nicer and smarter.
+Tommy liked to play with his toy cars. He had many cars of different colors and sizes. He liked to make them zoom and crash on the floor. He liked to pretend he was a driver and go fast.
+
+One day, Tommy saw his mom make coffee in the kitchen. He was curious about the brown drink. He wanted to try it. He waited until his mom left the room. Then he climbed on a chair and reached for the cup. He did not know it was very hot.
+
+Tommy burned his tongue and mouth. He dropped the cup and spilled the coffee. He started to weep very loud. He was in pain and scared. He wanted his mom to help him.
+
+His mom heard him weep and ran to the kitchen. She saw the mess and Tommy's tears. She felt sorry for him. She hugged him and said, "It's okay, honey. You are brave. I will make it better." She gave him some ice and water. She cleaned the floor and the chair. She threw away the cheap cup. She did not like it anyway.
+
+Tommy felt better after a while. He said sorry to his mom. He learned his lesson. He did not want to try coffee again. He wanted to play with his cars. He asked his mom to join him. She smiled and said, "Sure, why not?" They played together and had fun.
+Tom and Sue like to print things with their new printer. They print pictures of animals, cars, flowers and stars. They cut them out and stick them on their walls. One day, they find a picture of a frog on the computer. They think it is funny and green. They print it and cut it out.
+
+"Let's play with the frog," Tom says. "We can make it hop and croak."
+
+"OK," Sue says. "But we have to be careful. Mom does not like frogs. She says they are slimy and noisy."
+
+They take the frog to the backyard. They make it hop on the grass and the rocks. They make it croak with their voices. They have fun. But they do not see the real frog that lives in the pond. The real frog is alert. It sees the paper frog. It thinks it is another frog. It wants to say hello.
+
+The real frog hops out of the pond. It hops towards the paper frog. Tom and Sue do not hear it. They are busy playing. The real frog reaches the paper frog. It opens its mouth. It tries to kiss the paper frog.
+

+
+"Ah!" Tom and Sue say. They see the real frog. They are scared. They drop the paper frog. They run to the house.
+
+"Mom! Mom! There is a frog in the backyard!" they shout.
+
+Mom comes out. She sees the real frog and the paper frog. She laughs.
+
+"It's OK, kids. It's just a frog. It won't hurt you. It was just curious about your paper frog. It thought it was a friend."
+
+She picks up the paper frog. She gives it to Tom and Sue.
+
+"Here, you can keep your paper frog. But don't print any more frogs, OK? They might attract more real frogs. And we don't want that, do we?"
+
+"No, Mom," Tom and Sue say. They nod. They hug their paper frog. They are happy. But they are also careful. They do not print any more frogs.

+Lily liked to play with daisies. She picked them from the grass and made them into chains. She put them on her head and on her neck and on her arms. She felt like a princess.
+
+One day, she saw a big daisy with many petals. It was very pretty and shiny. She wanted to have it for her chain. She ran to the daisy and tried to pick it. But it was not a daisy. It was a bee.
+
+The bee was angry. It did not like to be picked. It stung Lily on her hand. It hurt a lot. Lily cried and dropped the bee. She ran to her mom and showed her the sting.
+
+Her mom was worried. She took Lily to the doctor. The doctor gave her some medicine and a bandage. He said Lily was allergic to bees. He said she was foolish to attach a bee to her chain. He said she could have died.
+
+Lily was sad and sorry. She learned her lesson. She never played with daisies again. She only played with toys.
+Lily liked to read books. She had many books in her room. Some books had pictures, some books had stories, some books had both. But her favorite book was the dictionary. The dictionary had many words. Lily liked to learn new words and what they meant.
+
+But Lily's mom did not permit her to read the dictionary. She said it was too big and too hard for Lily. She said Lily should read other books that were more fun and easy. Lily was sad. She wanted to read the dictionary. She wanted to know all the words.
+
+One day, when mom was busy, Lily had an idea. She took the dictionary from the shelf and hid it under her bed. She waited until mom was not looking. Then she went to her room and closed the door. She took out the dictionary and opened it. She saw many words. She tried to read them and say them. She felt happy.
+
+But mom heard Lily's voice. She came to her room and knocked on the door. She asked Lily what she was doing. Lily was scared. She quickly put the dictionary back under her bed and said nothing. Mom opened the door and saw Lily sitting on the floor. She asked Lily again what she was doing.
+
+Lily did not know what to say. She looked at mom and said, "I was reading the dictionary." Mom was surprised. She looked under the bed and saw the hidden dictionary. She smiled and said, "You are a very smart girl, Lily. But you should not take things without asking. And you should not hide things from me. The dictionary is a good book, but it is not the only book. There are many other books that you can read and enjoy. Why don't we read one together?" Lily nodded and said, "OK, mom. I'm sorry. I love you." Mom hugged Lily and said, "I love you too. Now, let's pick a book." They went to the shelf and chose a book. They sat on the bed and read the book. Lily learned some new words and mom explained what they meant. They had fun and laughed. Lily was happy. She still liked the dictionary, but she liked other books too. And she liked reading with mom.
+Anna and Ben love to swim in the big pool at the hotel. It is a luxury for them, because they do not have a pool at home. They like to play games in the water, like tag and splash. Sometimes, they dive under the water and see who can hold their breath longer.
+
+One day, they see a man with a funny suit and a big tank on his back. He is a diver, and he tells them he is going to explore the sea. He shows them his mask, his fins, and his snorkel. He says they help him breathe and swim under the water. Anna and Ben think he is very brave and cool.
+
+They ask him if they can dive with him, but he says they are too young and need to learn more. He says diving is hard and can be dangerous, and they need to be careful and follow the rules. He says maybe when they are older, they can try diving with him. He gives them a wink and a smile, and then he jumps into the water and disappears.
+
+Anna and Ben watch him go, and then they look at each other. They decide they want to learn more about diving, and they ask their mom and dad if they can get some books and toys about it. They say yes, and they take them to the hotel shop. There, they find some books with pictures of fish and coral, and some toys with diver figures and animals. They are very happy, and they thank their mom and dad.
+
+They go back to the pool, and they pretend they are divers. They put on their goggles and their swim caps, and they dive under the water.

+"Be careful, Sam!" Mom says. "That is not a toy. That is an iron. It is dangerous. It can get very hot and burn you. And the cord can make you trip and fall. Put it back, please."
+
+But Sam does not listen. He thinks Mom is no fun. He runs away with the iron and Tom follows him. They go to their bedroom and close the door.
+
+They play with the iron on the bed. They pretend it is a spaceship or a monster or a car. They have fun. But they do not see that the cord is plugged into the wall. And they do not see that the iron is getting hotter and hotter.
+
+Suddenly, the iron makes a loud noise. It sparks and smokes and catches fire. The fire spreads to the bed and the curtains and the carpet. Sam and Tom scream and drop the iron. They are scared and hurt. They try to open the door, but it is locked. They are trapped.
+
+Mom hears the noise and smells the smoke. She runs to the bedroom and tries to open the door, but it is locked. She calls for help and bangs on the door. She cries and prays.
+
+But it is too late. The fire is too big and too fast. It burns everything in the bedroom. It burns Sam and Tom. They do not play anymore. They do not laugh anymore. They do not live anymore.
+Anna and Ben are playing in their room. They have many toys and books and puzzles. They like to make fun things with them. But they also make a big mess. Their room is not tidy at all.
+
+Their mom calls them. "Anna and Ben, it is time for dinner. Hurry up and come to the table. And please put your toys away first."
+
+Anna and Ben do not want to stop playing. They want to finish their puzzle. It is a picture of a farm with many animals. They only need a few more pieces. They say, "Mom, we are almost done. Can we have a few more minutes?"
+
+Mom says, "No, you have to come now. Dinner is getting cold. And you have to clean your room. It is too messy. You can finish your puzzle later."
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They do not like to leave their puzzle. But they also do not want to make mom angry. They decide to hurry up and put their toys away. They find a big box and put all their toys and books and puzzles inside. They also find a frame for their puzzle. They put the frame around the puzzle and hang it on the wall. They think it looks very nice.
+
+They look around their room. It is much more tidy now. They are proud of themselves. They run to the kitchen and say, "Mom, we are ready for dinner. And we cleaned our room. Look, we framed our puzzle. Do you like it?"
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them. She says, "I am very happy that you cleaned your room. And I love your puzzle. It is very beautiful. You did a great job. Now, let's eat. We have your favorite soup and bread."
+Tim was a cat who liked to demand things. He wanted to eat the best food, sleep on the softest bed, and play with the shiniest toys. He did not like to share or help others. He thought he was better than everyone else.
+
+One day, Tim saw a fish in a pond. He wanted to catch the fish and eat it. He did not care that the pond was deep and cold. He jumped into the water and tried to grab the fish with his paws. But the fish was fast and smart. It swam away from Tim and hid under a rock.
+
+Tim was angry and wet. He tried to get out of the pond, but he could not. His tail was stuck in a hole. He pulled and pulled, but his tail did not move. He felt scared and cold. He cried for help, but no one came. He wished he had been nicer to others.
+
+Then he saw a dog walking by. The dog was friendly and kind. He heard Tim crying and came to see what was wrong. He saw Tim's tail in the hole and used his teeth to free it. He helped Tim out of the pond and gave him a lick.
+
+Tim was grateful and ashamed. He thanked the dog and apologized for being mean. He learned a lesson that day. He learned that it is better to be humble and generous than to be greedy and selfish. He learned that you never know who might help you when you are in trouble. He learned that a friend is more valuable than a fish.

+
+One day, she decides to wear her pirate costume and ride to the park. She puts on her hat, her eye patch and her sword. She says "Ahoy, matey!" to her doll and puts her in the basket. She rides fast and feels the wind in her hair. She sees other kids playing in the park. She wants to join them.

+Super Sam nods and says "Sure, we can be friends. Do you want to swing with me?"
+
+Lily says "Yes, please. I love to swing. It makes me feel like I'm flying."
+
+They swing together and laugh. They have fun. They share their stories and their snacks. Lily gives Super Sam some of her cookies. Super Sam gives Lily some of his grapes. Lily tries a grape and makes a face. She says "Yuck, this grape is bitter. I don't like it."
+
+Super Sam says "Sorry, I didn't know you don't like bitter grapes. Do you want another cookie instead?"
+
+Lily says "Yes, please. Thank you. Your cookies are yummy. I like them."
+
+Super Sam says "You're welcome. I like your cookies too. They are sweet and soft."
+
+They smile and hug. They are happy. They are friends. They finish their snacks and go back to their bikes. They say goodbye and promise to play again. They ride away, waving and shouting. They have a good day.
+Anna and Ben like to play in the park. They like to swing, slide and run. One day, they see a big hill with snow on it. They want to go up the hill and see what is on the other side.
+
+They ask their mom if they can go. Mom says yes, but be careful. She gives them their hats, gloves and scarves. Anna and Ben say thank you and run to the hill. They climb up the hill, holding hands. They are curious about what they will find.
+
+When they reach the top, they see a big lake. The lake is frozen and shiny. They see some ducks and geese on the ice. They also see some kids with skates and sleds. They think it looks fun.
+
+They want to go down the hill and join them. They look for a good spot to slide. They see a smooth path with no rocks or sticks. They sit on their scarves and push off. They go very fast. They feel the wind in their faces and the snow in their hair. They laugh and shout.
+
+But then, they see a bump on the path. They try to avoid it, but they can't. They hit the bump and fly in the air. They slip off their scarves and land on the ice. They slide some more, but they can't stop. They are scared.
+
+They see a big boy with a sled. He sees them too. He steers his sled to them and catches them. He stops them from sliding. He asks them if they are okay. They say yes, but they are cold and wet. He says he will take them to their mom. He puts them on his sled and pulls them to the park. He is nice.
+
+Mom sees them and hugs them. She says she is glad they are safe. She says they were brave, but also silly. She says they should not go on the hill without skates or sleds. She says they should always watch out for bumps. She says they should always listen to her.
+
+Anna and Ben say they are sorry. They say they were curious. They say they learned their lesson. They say they love mom. Mom says she loves them too. She says they can have some hot chocolate and cookies. They say thank you and smile. They are happy.
+One night, Ben heard a strange sound outside his window. He got out of his bed and looked out. He saw a big, dark bird with big eyes and a sharp beak. It was an owl. Ben liked owls. He wanted to see it better.
+
+He opened his window and whispered, "Hello, owl. What are you doing here?"
+
+The owl turned its head and looked at Ben. It said, "Hoo, hoo. I am looking for food. I am hungry."
+
+Ben felt sorry for the owl. He remembered that he had some bread and cheese in his kitchen. He had a good idea. He said, "I have some food for you. Wait here. I will be right back."
+
+He ran to his kitchen and grabbed some bread and cheese. He wrapped them in a napkin and ran back to his window. He threw the napkin to the owl. The owl caught it with its claws and opened it. It smelled the food and said, "Thank you, little boy. You are very kind."
+
+Ben smiled and said, "You are welcome, owl. Enjoy your food."
+
+The owl ate the bread and cheese. It felt full and happy. It said, "Hoo, hoo. That was very good. I will remember you, little boy. Maybe I will come back another night."
+
+Ben said, "I would like that, owl. Good night."
+
+The owl said, "Good night, little boy." It flew away into the night.
+
+Ben closed his window and went back to his bed. He felt happy and proud. He had made a new friend.
+
+But he did not know that his mom had heard him talking to the owl. She was angry and worried. She did not like owls. She thought they were scary and dangerous. She did not want Ben to feed them or talk to them. She had a bad feeling about the owl. She decided to talk to Ben in the morning and tell him to stay away from the owl. She did not know that the owl had a good heart and liked Ben. She did not know that the owl would come back another night and save Ben from a harsh danger.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big bird with white feathers and a long neck. The bird is sitting on a nest with many eggs.
+
+"Look, Ben, a bird!" Anna says. "What kind of bird is it?"
+
+"I don't know, Anna. Maybe a swan?" Ben says. "It is very graceful. See how it moves its neck?"
+
+They go closer to the bird, but not too close. They don't want to scare it. They see the eggs are big and brown. They wonder how many eggs there are.
+
+"Can we count the eggs, Ben?" Anna asks.
+
+"OK, Anna. But we have to be quiet and careful," Ben says.
+
+They start to count the eggs. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. They are amazed by how many eggs there are.
+
+"Wow, eight eggs!" Anna says. "That's a lot of eggs!"
+
+"Yes, Anna. That's a lot of eggs," Ben says. "The bird must be very proud of its eggs."
+
+They smile at the bird and the eggs. They think the bird is very beautiful and brave. They say goodbye to the bird and the eggs. They go back to their parents, who are waiting for them on a bench.
+
+"Mom, Dad, we saw a bird with eight eggs!" Anna says.
+
+"A bird with eight eggs? What kind of bird was it?" Mom asks.
+
+"A graceful bird with white feathers and a long neck," Ben says.
+
+"A graceful bird with white feathers and a long neck? That sounds like a swan," Dad says.
+
+"A swan? That's what we thought, too," Anna says.
+
+They tell their parents all about the swan and the eggs. They are happy and excited. They love the park and the animals. They hope to see the swan and the eggs again.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and trucks. They have many toys in their room. But they do not like to share. Sometimes they quarrel over their toys.

+
+They take the box to their room. They dump the gears on the floor. They start to make different shapes and patterns with the gears. They have fun. But soon they want the same gear. They both reach for it. They pull and tug. They yell and cry. They quarrel over the gear.

+Sara likes to play with her dolls. She has many dolls, but her favorite is Lily. Lily has long hair and a pink dress. Sara likes to brush Lily's hair and make her look pretty.
+
+One day, Sara and Lily are playing in the living room. Sara pretends that Lily is a princess and she is her friend. They have a tea party and talk about their dreams.
+
+"What do you want to be when you grow up, Lily?" Sara asks.
+
+"I want to be a doctor, like my mommy," Lily says. "I want to help people who are sick and make them feel better."
+
+"That's very nice, Lily," Sara says. "I want to be a teacher, like my daddy. I want to help people who learn and make them smart."
+
+They smile and sip their tea. They are very happy.
+
+But then, Sara's mommy comes in and says, "Sara, it's time for your bath. You have to stop playing and come with me."
+
+Sara frowns and says, "But mommy, I don't want to take a bath. I want to play with Lily."
+
+"Sara, you have to take a bath. You are dirty and you need to be clean. Lily can wait for you. She won't go anywhere," Sara's mommy says.
+
+Sara sighs and says, "Okay, mommy. But can I take Lily with me? She is dirty too. She needs a bath."
+
+Sara's mommy thinks and says, "Alright, Sara. You can take Lily with you. But be careful. Don't get her wet. She is not a water doll. She is a cloth doll."
+
+Sara nods and says, "Thank you, mommy. I will be careful. Come on, Lily. Let's go take a bath."
+
+Sara and Lily go to the bathroom. Sara's mommy fills the tub with warm water and bubbles. She helps Sara take off her clothes and get in the water. She gives her a sponge and a soap. Sara washes her face, her arms, her legs, and her hair. She feels good and clean.
+
+She looks at Lily and says, "Lily, you need a bath too. But I can't put you in the water. You will get wet and soggy. How can I make you clean?"
+
+She thinks and thinks. Then she has an idea. She sees her daddy's bathrobe hanging on the door. She takes it and wraps Lily in it. She says, "Lily, this is your bath. You can be in the bathrobe. It is soft and warm and dry. It will make you clean."
+
+Lily smiles and says, "Thank you, Sara. You are very smart and kind. This is a nice bath. I like the bathrobe. It is useful."
+
+Sara and Lily hug and giggle. They are very happy. They end their bath and get ready for bed. They put on their pajamas and brush their teeth. They go to Sara's bedroom and cuddle in Sara's bed. Sara's mommy and daddy come in and kiss them goodnight. They turn off the light and say, "Sweet dreams, Sara and Lily. We love you."
+
+Sara and Lily say, "We love you too, mommy and daddy. Goodnight."
+
+They close their eyes and fall asleep. They dream of being a doctor and a teacher. They are very happy.

+
+They ran to the truck and climbed on it. They saw the switch. It was red and shiny. Lily reached for the switch. Sam said, "No, Lily, don't touch it. It might be bad." But Lily did not listen. She pushed the switch.
+
+The truck made a loud noise. It started to move. Lily and Sam were scared. They did not know how to stop the truck. They screamed for help. The truck drove out of the park and onto the road.
+
+A man saw the truck. He was a police officer. He had a car with a siren and a light. He followed the truck. He used his siren and his light to tell the truck to stop. He saw Lily and Sam on the truck. He knew they were in trouble.
+
+He got close to the truck. He used a loudspeaker. He said, "Hello, kids. I am here to help you. Please pull the switch back. It will stop the truck." Lily and Sam heard the man. They were glad. They pulled the switch back. The truck stopped.
+
+The man got out of his car. He ran to the truck. He helped Lily and Sam get down. He said, "Are you okay, kids? You are very brave. But you should not play with switches. They can be dangerous. You could have been hurt." Lily and Sam nodded. They said, "We are sorry, sir. We were curious. We did not know what the switch did. We will not do it again." The man smiled. He said, "It's okay, kids. I understand. You are lucky. This was a rare truck. It was a fire truck. It was here to help the park. It had water and hoses. The switch turned on the water. You made a big mess. But no one was hurt. Come on, let's go back to the park. I will call your parents and tell them what happened." Lily and Sam thanked the man. They went back to the park with him.

+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, they found a big rope hanging from a tree. It looked like fun.
+
+"Let's swing on the rope!" Lily said.
+
+"OK!" Ben said.
+
+They took turns to hold the rope and swing in the air. They laughed and shouted with joy. They felt like birds flying in the sky.
+
+But then, the rope broke. Lily and Ben fell to the ground. They were not hurt, but they were scared and sad. They looked at the broken rope and cried.
+
+"It's OK, don't cry," Lily said to Ben.
+
+She gave him a big hug. Ben hugged her back. They felt better.
+
+They saw a man walking by with a dog. The dog was small and fluffy. It had a cute face and a wagging tail. It was adorable.
+
+"Look, a dog!" Ben said.
+
+"Can we pet it?" Lily asked.
+
+The man smiled and nodded. He let them pet his dog. The dog licked their faces and made them giggle.
+
+They forgot about the rope. They thanked the man and the dog. They went back to their toys. They were happy again.
+Ben and Mia were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Snowman!" Ben said. "Do you like our town?"
+
+The snowman did not say anything. He was very still and cold.
+
+"Maybe he is shy," Mia said. "Or maybe he is dead."
+
+Ben and Mia looked at each other. They did not know what dead meant. They had heard it on TV, but they did not understand.
+
+"What is dead?" Ben asked.
+
+Mia shrugged. She did not know either.
+
+"Let's ask Mom," she said.
+
+They ran to their house and knocked on the door. Mom opened it and smiled.
+
+"Hi, kids. Did you have fun in the snow?"
+
+"Yes, Mom. But we have a question," Ben said.
+
+"What is it?"
+
+"What is dead?" Mia asked.
+
+Mom looked surprised. She knelt down and hugged them.
+
+"Dead is when something is not alive anymore. When it does not breathe or move or feel. Like a flower that withers or a toy that breaks."
+
+"Is Mr. Snowman dead?" Ben asked.
+
+Mom shook her head.
+
+"No, honey. Mr. Snowman is not dead. He is just frozen. Frozen is when something is very cold and hard. Like ice or snow. But frozen things can melt and change. Like when the sun comes out and makes the snowman smaller."
+
+"Will Mr. Snowman come alive then?" Mia asked.
+
+Mom smiled.
+
+"No, sweetie. Mr. Snowman is not alive. He is just a fun thing we made with snow. But we can pretend he is alive and talk to him and play with him. And we can make him again next time it snows."
+
+Ben and Mia nodded. They understood a little bit better.
+
+"Can we go back and play with Mr. Snowman?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, but wear your coats and gloves. It is very cold outside."
+
+"Okay, Mom. Thank you," Mia said.
+
+They kissed Mom and ran back to the snowman. They said hello to him and gave him a hug. They did not care if he was frozen or dead. They liked him anyway.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to explore. One day, they went to the valley near their home. The valley had many flowers and trees and animals. Anna and Ben wanted to find something special.
+
+"Look, Ben, a butterfly!" Anna said, pointing to a blue and yellow winged creature. "It is so pretty. Can we pick it?"
+
+"No, Anna, we cannot pick the butterfly. It is rare and needs to fly. If we pick it, it will be sad and hurt. We can watch it, but not touch it." Ben said, shaking his head.
+
+"Okay, Ben, I understand. But can we pick something else? Maybe a flower or a leaf or a stone?" Anna asked, looking around.
+
+"Sure, Anna, we can pick something else. But we have to be careful and gentle. We do not want to hurt the valley or the things that live here. They are our friends." Ben said, smiling.
+
+Anna and Ben walked around the valley, looking for something to pick. They saw many colors and shapes and sounds. They picked a red flower, a green leaf, and a shiny stone. They put them in their pockets and thanked the valley for its gifts.
+
+"Anna, Ben, time to go home!" their mom called from the hill.
+
+"Coming, mom!" Anna and Ben said, running to her. They showed her what they picked and told her about the rare butterfly.
+
+"That is wonderful, Anna and Ben. You are very lucky to see such a beautiful thing. And you are very kind to respect the valley and its creatures. I am proud of you." their mom said, hugging them.
+
+Anna and Ben hugged their mom back and smiled. They loved the valley and the rare butterfly. They hoped to see them again.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. But they did not like to organize their toys when they were done. They left them all over the floor and made a big mess.
+
+One day, their mom said, "Lily and Ben, you need to organize your toys. Put them in the boxes and on the shelves. If you do, I will make you a yummy snack with butter and jam."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and started to organize their toys. But they soon got bored and started to argue. Lily wanted to put the dolls in the pink box and the cars in the blue box. Ben wanted to put the cars in the pink box and the dolls in the blue box.
+
+"No, Ben, that is wrong!" Lily said. "Dolls are for girls and cars are for boys. Pink is for girls and blue is for boys."
+
+"No, Lily, that is silly!" Ben said. "Dolls and cars are for everyone. Pink and blue are for everyone. I like pink and I like cars."
+
+Lily and Ben started to pull and push the toys and the boxes. They made more mess and noise. Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong.
+
+"Lily and Ben, what are you doing?" their mom asked. "You are not organizing your toys. You are fighting and making a mess. Why are you doing that?"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at their mom and then at each other. They felt bad and sorry. They realized that organizing their toys was not so difficult. They just had to share and cooperate.
+
+"Sorry, mom," Lily and Ben said. "We were being silly. We can organize our toys together. We can put the dolls and the cars in any box we want. We can like pink and blue and any color we want."
+
+Their mom smiled and hugged them. "That's good, Lily and Ben. I'm proud of you. Now, let's finish organizing your toys and then we can have our snack with butter and jam."
+Lily liked to play in her room. She had many toys and books and a big wardrobe. The wardrobe was old and brown, but Lily thought it was beautiful. She liked to open the doors and look at the clothes inside. Sometimes she pretended they were costumes for a show.
+
+One day, Lily heard a knock on the wardrobe door. She was surprised and curious. She opened the door and saw a boy. He had blond hair and blue eyes and wore a green coat. He smiled at Lily and said, "Hello, I'm Peter. Can I come in?"
+
+Lily did not answer. She did not know who Peter was or where he came from. She looked behind him and saw a snowy forest and a lamp post. It was very strange and different from her room. She felt scared and excited at the same time.
+
+"Please, don't be afraid," Peter said. "I'm not here to hurt you. I'm here to invite you to a wonderful place. It's called Narnia. It's a land of magic and adventure. There are talking animals and friendly fauns and a brave lion. Do you want to come with me?"
+
+Lily did not answer. She wanted to see Narnia, but she also wanted to stay in her room. She did not know what to do. She looked at Peter and then at the wardrobe. She wondered what would happen if she went with him or if she closed the door. She had to make a choice.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their toy cars on the floor. They had a big loop made of plastic that they could make their cars go through. Ben liked to make his car go very fast and try to finish the loop without falling off. Lily liked to watch him and cheer for him.
+
+"Wow, Ben, you are so good at this!" Lily said. "Can I try too?"
+
+"Sure, Lily, here is my car. You have to push it hard and make it go up the loop," Ben said. He gave his car to Lily and showed her how to do it.
+
+Lily pushed the car hard and watched it go up the loop. She was curious to see if it would finish the loop like Ben's car. But the car was not fast enough and it fell off the loop halfway. Lily was sad and looked at Ben.
+
+"Sorry, Ben, I broke your car," Lily said.
+
+Ben smiled and hugged Lily. "It's okay, Lily, you didn't break it. It just fell off. You can try again. You just need to push it harder. I will help you," Ben said.
+
+They tried again and again until Lily could finish the loop with Ben's car. They were both happy and proud. They played with the loop and their cars until it was time for dinner. They put their toys away and ran to the kitchen. They were hungry and ready to eat.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, Lily has a new hat. It is red and has a big flower on it.
+
+"Look at my new hat!" Lily says to Ben. "Do you like it?"
+
+Ben looks at Lily's hat. He thinks it is very pretty. But he also feels a little sad. He does not have a new hat. His hat is old and brown. It has a hole in it.
+
+"I like your hat, Lily," Ben answers. "But I wish I had a new hat too."
+
+Lily sees that Ben is sad. She wants to make him happy. She has an idea.
+
+"Why don't we share my hat?" she says. "We can take turns wearing it. Then we both have a new hat!"
+
+Ben smiles. He thinks that is a good idea. He likes to share with Lily. She is a good friend.
+
+"Okay, let's share your hat," he says. "Thank you, Lily. You are very kind."
+
+Lily and Ben hug. Then they put on the hat and play together. They are happy. They have a new hat and a good friend.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They saw a big red ball in the grass. "Look, a ball!" Lily said. "Let's play with it!" Max said. They ran to the ball and kicked it to each other.
+
+The ball flew high and far. It landed near a pond. Lily and Max followed it. They saw a duck in the water. The duck had a yellow beak and brown feathers. It looked at the ball. "Quack, quack!" the duck said. It swam to the ball and bit it.
+
+"Hey, that's our ball!" Lily said. "Give it back, duck!" Max said. They ran to the pond and tried to get the ball. But the duck was faster. It took the ball and swam away. "Quack, quack!" the duck said again. It looked happy.
+
+Lily and Max were sad. They wanted their ball back. They sat on the grass and watched the duck. The sun was going down. It made the sky orange and pink. It was a pretty sunset. But Lily and Max did not care. They only cared about their ball.
+
+They were also hungry. They had not eaten since lunch. They wished they had a snack. They heard a voice. "Lily, Max, where are you?" It was their mom. She had come to pick them up. She had a basket with sandwiches and cookies. She saw them on the grass. She saw the duck with the ball. She understood what happened.

+

+
+"Yes, we can! Thank you, thank you!" Lily and Ben said.

+
+"Maybe we should not go," Tom says. "The sign says no."

+He presses some buttons on the phone. He hears a voice.
+
+"Hello, who is this?" the voice says.
+
+Ben does not know what to say. He is scared. He drops the phone.
+
+"Ben, what did you do?" Tom says. "You should not call anyone!"
+
+But it is too late. The voice on the phone is a police. The police knows where they are. The police comes to the truck. The police sees the boxes. The police sees Ben and Tom.
+
+"Hey, you two, what are you doing here?" the police says. "You are in big trouble. You are stealing from the truck. You are going to jail."
+
+Ben and Tom are very scared. They cry. They say they are sorry. They say they just wanted to play.
+
+But the police does not listen. The police takes them to the car. The police drives them to the jail. The jail is a big and dark place. There are many bad people there. Ben and Tom do not like the jail.
+
+They wish they never went to the truck. They wish they listened to the sign. They wish they played in the park. They are very sad.

+The dog was happy and so were they. They forgot to be jealous and learned to share. They also made a new friend. They named him Roar, because he sounded like a dragon when he barked. They had a lot of fun at the beach that day.
+Lily liked to print pictures with her crayons. She liked to print flowers and stars and animals. She printed many pictures and put them on the wall. She was very proud of her pictures.
+
+One day, Lily saw a newspaper on the table. It had many words and photos on it. Lily wanted to print on the newspaper too. She thought it would be fun. She took her crayons and started to print on the newspaper.
+
+But Lily did not know that the newspaper was not hers. It was her dad's newspaper. He liked to read the newspaper every morning. He wanted to know what was happening in the world.
+
+When Lily's dad came to the table, he saw his newspaper. He saw that Lily had printed on it. He was very angry. He said to Lily, "Lily, what did you do? You ruined my newspaper! You were very rude! You should not print on things that are not yours!"
+
+Lily was scared. She did not mean to be rude. She did not know that the newspaper was important. She started to cry. She said to her dad, "I'm sorry, dad. I just wanted to print. I like to print. I did not know it was your newspaper."
+
+Lily's dad saw that Lily was sorry. He felt bad for yelling at her. He said to Lily, "It's okay, Lily. I know you like to print. But you have to ask before you print on something. And you have to be careful with other people's things. The newspaper is not for printing. It is for reading. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said to her dad, "I understand, dad. I'm sorry. I won't print on your newspaper again. Can I print on this paper instead?" She pointed to a blank paper on the table.
+
+Lily's dad smiled. He said to Lily, "Yes, you can print on this paper. You can print whatever you want. And I will read your pictures. They are very beautiful. I love you, Lily."
+
+Lily hugged her dad. She said to her dad, "I love you too, dad. Thank you for the paper. Can I print you a flower?"
+
+Lily's dad said, "Yes, please. I would love a flower. You are very sweet, Lily."
+
+Lily and her dad were happy. They printed and read together. They had fun.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy sheep. They liked to pretend that they were farmers and shear the wool from the sheep. They used scissors and paper to make the wool.
+
+"Look, I have more wool than you!" Lily said, holding up her paper pile.
+
+"No, you don't. I have more!" Ben said, showing his paper pile.
+
+They started to argue and pull each other's paper wool. The toy sheep watched them with sad eyes.
+
+"Stop it, Lily and Ben!" Mama said, coming into the room. "You are not being nice to each other or to the toy sheep. The sheep need their wool to keep warm and look graceful. How would you feel if someone took your hair?"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other and felt sorry. They said sorry to Mama and to the toy sheep. They put the paper wool back on the sheep and hugged them.
+
+"Can we play something else, Lily?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, Ben. Let's play something else." Lily said.
+
+They put away the scissors and the paper and picked up their toy cars. They smiled and played together. The toy sheep smiled too. The end.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toy trucks in the sandbox. They liked to load the trucks with sand and drive them around. Lily had a big red truck and Tom had a small blue truck.
+
+"Look, my truck is full of sand!" Lily said. "I can make a deep hole with it!"
+
+She drove her truck to a corner of the sandbox and dumped the sand there. She made a deep hole and smiled.
+
+"Can I try?" Tom asked. He wanted to make a deep hole too.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Lily said. She gave him her big red truck and took his small blue truck.
+
+Tom loaded the big red truck with sand and drove it to the same corner. He dumped the sand next to Lily's hole and made another deep hole. He was happy.
+
+But then he saw something shiny in the sand. He reached out his hand and picked it up. It was a ring with a big stone. It sparkled in the sun.
+
+"Wow, look what I found!" Tom said. He held the ring in his palm and showed it to Lily.
+
+"That's pretty!" Lily said. She wanted to see the ring too.
+
+"Can I have it?" she asked. "You can have my big red truck."
+
+Tom thought for a moment. He liked the ring, but he also liked the big red truck. He remembered that Lily had shared her truck with him. He decided to be nice.
+
+"OK, you can have the ring," he said. "But you have to share it with me sometimes."
+
+"Deal!" Lily said. She gave him the big red truck and took the ring. She put it on her finger and smiled.
+
+They hugged each other and continued to play with their trucks and the ring. They had fun and learned to share.
+Lila and Ben were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big slide that looked like a temple. It had stairs and windows and a roof. They both wanted to go on the slide, but there was only one way up.
+
+"I want to go first!" said Lila.
+
+"No, I want to go first!" said Ben.
+
+They started to push and pull each other, trying to get to the slide. They did not yield to each other. They did not share. They did not listen.
+
+A man who worked in the park saw them and came over. He looked sad and angry.
+
+"Stop that, children!" he said. "You are being rude and selfish. You are not playing nicely. You are not having fun. You are making the slide lonely. Do you know what the slide is for?"
+
+Lila and Ben stopped and looked at him. They felt ashamed and sorry.
+
+"No, what is it for?" they asked.
+
+"The slide is for sliding, of course!" said the man. "But not just for one person. For everyone who wants to slide. The slide is happy when it sees children smiling and laughing and sliding together. The slide is sad when it sees children fighting and crying and pushing each other. The slide is a temple of joy, not a temple of greed. Do you understand?"
+
+Lila and Ben nodded. They understood. They said sorry to each other and to the man. They decided to yield to each other and take turns on the slide. They said thank you to the slide and to the man. They started to slide and have fun. They made the slide happy. They made themselves happy. They learned to share and to listen. They learned to be good friends.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her toys. She had a doll, a bear, a ball and a car. She liked to pretend that they were her friends and that they went to school together. She gave them names and voices and taught them new things.
+
+One day, Lily's big brother Tom came into her room. He was grumpy because he had a lot of homework to do. He saw Lily's toys and said, "These are baby toys. You are too old for them. You should give them to me. I can use them for my project."
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She said, "No, Tom. These are my toys. They belong to me. They are not baby toys. They are my friends. You can't take them away."
+
+Tom did not listen. He grabbed Lily's car and said, "This is a cool car. I need it for my project. You can have this old doll instead." He threw the doll at Lily and ran away with the car.
+
+Lily cried and hugged her doll. She felt sorry for her car. She wondered if it was scared and lonely. She wished she could get it back. She did not like Tom. He was mean and selfish. He did not understand how she felt.
+
+She decided to make a plan. She waited until Tom was busy with his homework. Then she sneaked into his room and looked for her car. She found it on his desk, covered with glue and paper. It did not look like her car anymore. It looked like a rocket.
+
+Lily was shocked and sad. She said, "Tom, what did you do to my car? You ruined it. You changed it. It does not belong to you. It belongs to me. Give it back."
+
+Tom looked up and saw Lily. He was surprised and annoyed. He said, "Go away, Lily. This is not your car. This is my rocket. I made it for my project. It is awesome. You can't have it."
+
+Lily was furious. She said, "Yes, it is my car. You took it from me. You broke it. You made it ugly. It is not awesome. It is awful. You can't keep it."
+
+They started to argue and shout. They pulled and pushed. They did not notice that their mom came into the room. She heard the noise and saw the mess. She was not happy. She said, "Stop it, both of you. What is going on here? Why are you fighting over this rocket?"
+
+Lily and Tom looked at their mom. They tried to explain. They blamed each other. They said, "He did it. She did it. It is mine. It is not yours."
+
+Their mom shook her head. She said, "Enough. I don't care who did what. This rocket is not yours or mine. It belongs to the school. It is a donation for the science fair. You have to give it back."
+
+Lily and Tom were shocked and confused. They said, "What? The school? The science fair? A donation?"
+
+Their mom nodded. She said, "Yes. The school asked for old toys that they could use for the science fair. They wanted to show how they can recycle and reuse them. I agreed to donate some of your toys that you don't play with anymore. I put them in a box and labeled it. I was going to take it to the school tomorrow. But you took the car out of the box and made it into a rocket. Now you have to fix it and put it back."
+
+Lily and Tom felt guilty and sorry. They said, "Oh, mom. We are sorry. We didn't know. We thought it was our car. We didn't mean to cause trouble."
+
+Their mom smiled and said, "It's okay. I know you didn't know. But you should have asked me first. And you should have respected each other's toys. They are not just things. They are memories and feelings. They belong to you and to your friends. You should share them and care for them."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded and said, "Yes, mom. You are right. We are sorry. We will share and care. We will fix the car and put it back. We will say sorry to our friends. We will be nice and kind."
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "That's good. I'm proud of you. Now let's go and fix the car. And then we can have some cookies and milk. And maybe we can play with some of your other toys. They are waiting for you. They belong to you."
+Lily and Ben were happy. They liked to help Mom in the kitchen. Mom was making a cake for Dad's birthday. She put the cake in the oven and told Lily and Ben to wait.
+
+"Can we see the cake?" Lily asked.
+
+"Not yet," Mom said. "The cake needs to cook in the oven for a long time. If we open the oven, the cake will not be good."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They played with their toys on the floor. They smelled the cake. It smelled yummy.
+
+But then, something bad happened. The oven made a loud noise. Mom looked at the oven and saw smoke. She turned off the oven and opened the door. The cake was burned.
+
+"Oh no!" Mom said. "The oven is broken. The cake is ruined. What will we do?"
+
+Lily and Ben felt sad. They wanted to make Dad happy. They hugged Mom.
+
+"It's okay, Mom," Ben said. "We can make another cake. We have more flour and eggs and sugar."
+
+"Yes, we can," Mom said. "But we need another oven. We can go to Grandma's house. She has an oven. We can make the cake there."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They liked Grandma. They liked her oven. They packed their toys and the cake ingredients. They got in the car with Mom.
+
+"Sorry, Dad," Mom said on the phone. "We have to delay your birthday cake. The oven is broken. We are going to Grandma's house to make a new cake. We will be back soon. We love you."
+
+Dad laughed. He was not mad. He was happy. He loved his family. He said he would wait for them.
+
+Lily and Ben were happy again. They knew Dad would like the new cake. They sang a song on the way to Grandma's house. They could not wait to see Grandma and her oven.
+Lena was a girl who liked lollipops very much. She always asked her mom for lollipops when they went to the store. One day, she saw a big jar of lollipops on the counter of the store. She wanted to have them all.
+
+She waited until her mom was busy talking to the lady who worked at the store. Then she sneaked to the counter and grabbed the jar of lollipops. She tried to run away with it, but the jar was very heavy. She could not lift it. She dropped it on the floor and it broke. Lollipops spilled everywhere.
+
+The lady who worked at the store heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw Lena and the broken jar and the lollipops. She was very angry. She said to Lena, "What did you do? You broke my jar and wasted my lollipops. You are a bad girl. You should not take things that are not yours. You should say sorry and help me clean up."
+
+Lena felt very bad. She knew she did something wrong. She said sorry to the lady and to her mom. She helped them pick up the lollipops and the pieces of the jar. She learned that stealing is bad and that she should be honest and respectful.
+
+Her mom was sad and disappointed. She said to Lena, "You made a big mistake today. You should not be greedy and selfish. You should be happy with what you have and share with others. Lollipops are not the most important thing in the world. You should value your family and your friends more."
+
+Lena nodded and hugged her mom. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I love you. I don't need lollipops to be happy. I have you and my friends. Can we go home now?"
+
+Her mom smiled and kissed her. She said, "Yes, we can go home now. But first, you can have one lollipop as a treat. But only one, okay?"
+
+Lena said, "Okay, mom. Thank you. Can I have the pink one?"
+
+Her mom said, "Sure, you can have the pink one. But remember, lollipops are sweet, but not as sweet as being good."
+Anna liked to play in the park with her ball. She liked to kick it and catch it and roll it on the grass. One day, she saw a big dog in the park. The dog was brown and furry and had a long tail. Anna wanted to pet the dog, but she did not know if the dog was friendly.
+
+She looked around and saw a man sitting on a bench. He had a leash in his hand that was attached to the dog. He was a stranger, but he smiled at Anna. He said, "Hello, little girl. Do you like my dog? His name is Max. He is very gentle and loves to play."
+
+Anna nodded and walked slowly towards the dog. The man said, "You can pet him if you want. He won't bite. He likes children." Anna reached out her hand and touched the dog's head. The dog licked her hand and wagged his tail. Anna giggled and said, "He is soft and warm. He is a good dog."
+
+The man said, "Yes, he is. He is my best friend. He provides me with company and joy. Do you have a pet at home?" Anna shook her head and said, "No, I don't. I wish I had a dog like Max. He is fun and kind."
+
+The man said, "Maybe you can ask your parents for a dog someday. They are wonderful companions. But you have to take good care of them. They need food and water and exercise and love." Anna said, "I know. I would feed him and walk him and hug him every day. I would be his best friend too."
+
+The man said, "That's nice. I'm sure Max would like that. But now we have to go. It's time for his dinner. Say goodbye to Max, Anna." Anna said, "Goodbye, Max. Thank you for playing with me. You are a nice dog." She gave him a kiss on his nose and waved to the man. The man said, "Goodbye, Anna. It was nice to meet you. Have a good day." He and Max walked away, leaving Anna with her ball. Anna smiled and said, "Bye, bye, stranger. You are a nice man." She picked up her ball and ran to her mother, who was waiting for her. She told her mother about the dog and the man and how gentle they were. Her mother hugged her and said, "I'm glad you had fun, Anna. But remember, don't talk to strangers without me. They might not all be nice like Max and his owner. You have to be careful, okay?" Anna said, "Okay, mommy. I understand. But can we get a dog someday?" Her mother said, "Maybe, Anna. Maybe."
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. They were having fun and laughing.
+
+But then, a big dog came and saw their ball. The dog ran to the ball and took it in his mouth. He ran away with the ball. Tom and Lily were sad and angry. They wanted their ball back.
+
+"Hey, that's our ball!" Tom shouted. He ran after the dog. Lily followed him. They tried to catch the dog, but he was too fast. He went out of the park and into the street.
+
+Tom and Lily did not know the street. They did not see their mom or dad. They did not see the park. They only saw cars and people and shops. They did not know the way back. They felt scared and lost. They started to panic.
+
+"Tom, where are we?" Lily asked. She held Tom's hand. She felt like crying.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. I don't know the way," Tom said. He looked around. He saw a lady with a sweet smile. She was holding a bag of cookies. She saw Tom and Lily and came to them.
+
+"Hello, children. Are you lost?" she asked. She sounded nice and kind.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They told her about the dog and the ball and the park. The lady listened and nodded.
+
+"Don't worry, children. I know the way to the park. I can take you there. Do you want a cookie?" she asked. She gave them each a cookie. The cookies were sweet and yummy.
+
+Tom and Lily smiled. They thanked the lady. They ate the cookies. They felt better. They followed the lady to the park. She helped them find their mom and dad. They hugged them and told them what happened.
+
+Mom and dad were happy to see them. They were also angry at the dog. They said they would buy them a new ball. They thanked the lady for helping them. The lady smiled and waved goodbye.
+
+Tom and Lily learned a lesson. They learned to be careful with their ball. They learned to stay close to their mom and dad. They learned to trust nice people who help them. They learned that cookies are sweet.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys and read books. But at night, they have dreams. Sometimes they have good dreams, like flying in the sky or eating ice cream. Sometimes they have bad dreams, like monsters or loud noises.
+
+One night, Ben has a bad dream. He sees a big dog with sharp teeth. The dog chases him and barks. Ben is very scared. He wakes up and cries. Lily hears him and runs to his bed.
+
+"What is wrong, Ben?" Lily asks.
+
+"I had a bad dream. There was a big dog. It wanted to bite me," Ben says.
+
+Lily hugs him and says, "Don't be worried, Ben. It was just a dream. The dog is not real. It can't hurt you."
+
+"But it was so scary. I don't want to have that dream again," Ben says.
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She remembers something their mom told them. She says, "Mom said that if we have a bad dream, we can think of something good. Something that makes us happy. Then we can have a good dream instead."
+
+"Really?" Ben asks.
+
+"Yes, really. Let's try it. What makes you happy, Ben?" Lily asks.
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He says, "I like to play with my cars. And I like to go to the park. And I like to be with you, Lily."
+
+Lily smiles and says, "Me too, Ben. Me too. Let's think of those things. And let's say good night to the bad dream. Good night, bad dream. Go away. We don't want you here."
+
+They close their eyes and think of good things. They feel calm and safe. They fall asleep and have good dreams. They dream of playing with their cars and going to the park. And they dream of being with each other. They are happy.
+Tom and Sue were friends who liked to play in the park. They had a big ball that they kicked and threw to each other. One day, they saw a new boy in the park. He had a bigger ball that was red and shiny. Tom and Sue wanted to play with the new ball, but the new boy said no.
+
+"Please, can we play with your ball?" Tom asked.
+
+"No, it is my ball. Go away!" the new boy said.
+
+Tom and Sue were sad and angry. They decided to take the new ball when the new boy was not looking. They waited until he went to the slide, and then they ran to his ball and grabbed it. They ran away with the ball, laughing.
+
+The new boy saw them and was very mad. He chased them and shouted. "Give me back my ball! It is mine!"
+
+Tom and Sue ran faster, but the new boy was faster too. He caught up with them and pushed them to the ground. He took his ball and hit them with it. Tom and Sue cried and hurt.
+
+The new boy was not nice. He was wild and mean. He did not want to share or be friends. He increased the trouble in the park. He made Tom and Sue unhappy. He made the park a bad place. He was bad for the nation.
+Lily and Ben went to camp with their mom and dad. They slept in a big tent with a zipper. They liked to play outside and see the trees and the animals. One day, they saw a big bear near the lake. The bear was brown and furry and had a big nose.
+
+"Look, a bear!" Lily said. She pointed at the bear.
+
+"Wow, he is so big!" Ben said. He wanted to go closer to the bear.
+
+"No, Ben, we have to stay away from the bear. He might be angry or hungry," Lily said. She held Ben's hand.
+
+"Why?" Ben asked. He was curious about the bear.
+
+"Because bears are different from us. They live in the woods and they eat fish and honey. They can roar very loud and scare us," Lily said. She remembered what mom and dad told them about bears.
+
+"What does roar mean?" Ben asked. He did not know that word.
+
+"Roar means to make a big noise like this: RRRRR!" Lily said. She tried to sound like a bear.
+
+"RRRRR!" Ben said. He tried to sound like a bear too.
+
+They both laughed and roared. They did not see that the bear heard them and looked at them. The bear was curious too. He wanted to see who was making the noise. He walked towards them slowly.
+
+"Uh-oh, the bear is coming!" Lily said. She saw the bear moving.
+
+"Run, run, run!" Ben said. He was scared of the bear.
+
+They ran back to their tent and zipped it up. They hugged each other and waited for mom and dad to come back.
+
+"Did you have fun at camp today?" mom asked them when she came back.
+
+"Yes, we saw a bear and we roared like him!" Lily said.
+
+"Really? That sounds exciting and dangerous. You have to be careful around bears, they are not like us," mom said.
+
+"We know, mom. Bears are different. But they are also cool," Ben said.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. She was glad they were safe and happy. She told them a story about bears and how they live. Lily and Ben listened and learned. They liked camp and they liked bears. But they liked mom and dad more.
+Anna loves to design clothes for her dolls. She has many fabrics, buttons, ribbons and scissors. She likes to cut, sew and decorate the dresses and skirts. She makes them look pretty and colorful.
+
+One day, she finds a flea on her doll's hair. She is nervous and scared. She does not like fleas. They are small, black and jump. They can bite and make her itch. She screams and drops her doll.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, there is a flea on my doll!" she cries.
+
+Mommy comes and sees the flea. She is not nervous. She knows how to get rid of fleas. She picks up the doll and the flea. She puts them in a plastic bag.
+
+"Don't worry, Anna, we will wash your doll and the flea will go away. Fleas don't like water and soap. They will drown and die." she says.
+
+Anna feels better. She hugs mommy and says thank you. She hopes her doll will be okay. She wants to design more clothes for her. She thinks of new ideas and patterns. She loves to design.
+Sam and Mia are friends. They like to play music. Sam has a drum. Mia has a flute. They make loud and happy sounds.
+
+One day, a new boy comes to their school. His name is Leo. He has a guitar. He plays soft and sad songs. Sam and Mia do not like his music. They think it is sour.
+
+"Can I join you?" Leo asks them. "I want to play music with you."
+
+"No, you cannot join us," Sam says. "Your music is sour. We do not like sour music. Go away."
+
+Mia nods. She agrees with Sam. She does not want Leo to join them.
+
+Leo feels sad. He does not understand why they do not like his music. He likes all kinds of music. He thinks music is fun.
+
+He walks away. He finds a bench. He sits on the bench. He plays his guitar. He sings a song.
+
+A girl hears his song. Her name is Zoe. She has a tambourine. She likes his music. She thinks it is sweet.
+
+She walks to him. She smiles at him. She shakes her tambourine.
+
+"Can I join you?" Zoe asks him. "I like your music. It is sweet."
+
+"Yes, you can join me," Leo says. "I like your music too. It is fun."
+
+Zoe sits next to him. They play music together. They make soft and happy sounds. They become friends.
+Mia and Leo were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. One day, they saw a big star in the sky. It was very bright and shiny.
+
+"Look, Mia, a star!" Leo said. "Do you know what that means?"
+
+Mia shook her head. She did not know.
+
+"It means you can make a wish," Leo said. "If you close your eyes and say what you want, the star will hear you and make it come true."
+
+Mia thought that was unusual. She had never heard of that before. But she wanted to try.
+
+"Okay, Leo, let's make a wish," she said. "But we have to say it at the same time, or it won't work."
+
+They closed their eyes and counted to three. Then they said their wishes out loud.
+
+"I wish for a big cake with lots of frosting and sprinkles," Mia said.
+
+"I wish for a new bike with a bell and a basket," Leo said.
+
+They opened their eyes and looked at each other. They smiled.
+
+"Did it work?" Mia asked.
+
+"I don't know," Leo said. "Maybe we have to wait and see."
+
+They waited and waited, but nothing happened. The star was still in the sky, but their wishes did not come true.
+
+They felt sad and disappointed. They had hoped for something special.
+
+They hugged each other and said, "It's okay. We still have each other. We are best friends. We support each other no matter what."
+
+They felt better and decided to play some more. They did not need a cake or a bike to have fun. They had their friendship and their imagination. And that was enough.
+Anna liked to play with her dog, Max. Max was big and fluffy and friendly. He liked to run and jump and lick Anna's face. Anna and Max had a lot of fun together.
+
+One day, Anna and Max went to the park. There were many other dogs and people there. Anna saw a small, black dog with a pink bow on its head. She thought it was very attractive. She wanted to pet it and say hello.
+
+She ran towards the small dog, but Max followed her. He did not like the small dog. He thought it was annoying and noisy. He barked and growled at it. The small dog was scared and angry. It yapped and snapped at Max.
+
+Anna reached the small dog and tried to touch it. But the small dog did not want to be touched. It bit Anna's hand. Anna felt a sharp pain. She screamed. She screamed very loud.
+
+Max heard Anna scream. He was worried and angry. He jumped on the small dog and bit it back. The small dog screamed too. It screamed very loud.
+
+The people in the park heard the screams. They ran to see what was wrong. They saw Anna and the small dog bleeding. They saw Max shaking the small dog. They were shocked and scared.
+
+They pulled Max and the small dog apart. They checked Anna and the small dog for injuries. They found out that the small dog had fleas. The fleas had bitten Anna and Max too. They were itchy and sore.
+
+Anna and Max went home with their people. They got medicine and bandages for their bites. They got shampoo and comb for their fleas. They were sad and tired.
+
+Anna learned a lesson. She learned that not all dogs are friendly and attractive. She learned that she should ask before she pets a strange dog. She learned that she should listen to Max. He was her best friend. He protected her from the bad dog. He loved her very much.
+Lily and Max are friends. They like to play with books and crayons. One day, they find a big book with many prints of animals. They see a print of a lion, a print of a zebra, and a print of a monkey.
+
+Lily likes the print of the monkey. She says, "Look, Max, a monkey! It has a long tail and a funny face. It can swing from trees and eat bananas. I want to be a monkey!"
+
+Max likes the print of the lion. He says, "Look, Lily, a lion! It has a big mane and a loud roar. It can run fast and catch other animals. I want to be a lion!"
+
+They pretend to be a monkey and a lion. They make noises and move around. They have fun.
+
+But then, Max sees a print of a porcupine. He says, "Look, Lily, a porcupine! It has many sharp spikes on its back. It can poke other animals and make them go away. I want to poke you!"
+
+He runs to Lily and tries to poke her with his fingers. Lily does not like that. She says, "No, Max, no! Don't poke me! That hurts! That is not nice!"
+
+She runs away from Max and hides behind a chair. She is sad and angry.
+
+Max feels sorry. He says, "I'm sorry, Lily, I'm sorry! I was just playing. I don't want to hurt you. I don't want to be a porcupine. I want to be your friend!"
+
+He goes to Lily and gives her a hug. He says, "Can we be friends again? Can we play with the book again?"
+
+Lily smiles. She says, "Yes, Max, yes! We can be friends again. We can play with the book again. But no more poking, okay?"
+
+Max nods. He says, "Okay, Lily, okay. No more poking. Let's be healthy and happy animals!"
+
+They go back to the book and look at more prints. They see a print of a giraffe, a print of a turtle, and a print of a penguin. They wonder what it would be like to be them. They keep playing and laughing. They are friends.
+Sara and Ben like to collect shells on the beach. They go with Mom and Dad every summer. They have a big bucket to put the shells in. They look for different colors and shapes.
+
+One day, Sara finds a shiny pink shell. She is very happy. She shows it to Ben. "Look, Ben, look! I found a pretty shell!" she says.
+
+Ben looks at the shell. He likes it too. He wants to have it. He tries to take it from Sara. "No, Ben, no! It is mine!" Sara says. She holds the shell tight.
+
+Mom sees them. She comes over. "What is going on, Sara and Ben?" she asks.
+
+"Sara has a nice shell and I want it!" Ben says.
+
+"Sara found the shell and it is hers. You have to be patient, Ben. Maybe you will find another nice shell soon. Or you can ask Sara to share with you nicely," Mom says.
+
+Sara thinks. She likes her shell, but she also likes Ben. She decides to share. She gives the shell to Ben. "Here, Ben, you can have it. But you have to be careful. It is very special," she says.
+
+Ben smiles. He is happy. He thanks Sara. He puts the shell in the bucket. "Thank you, Sara. You are very kind. Maybe we can find more shells together," he says.
+
+Sara smiles too. She hugs Ben. "You are welcome, Ben. You are a good brother. Yes, let's find more shells together," she says.
+
+Mom is proud of them. She gives them a kiss. "You are both very good. I love you. Now let's go and have some ice cream," she says.
+
+Sara and Ben agree. They love ice cream. They take their bucket and follow Mom. They have a fun summer day.
+One day, Sam and Mia went to the park with their mom. They saw a big slide and wanted to try it. Sam ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. Mia followed him, but she was slower.
+
+"Move, Mia, move!" Sam shouted. He wanted to go down the slide first. He pushed Mia with his hand and made her fall off the ladder. Mia cried and hurt her knee.
+
+"Sam, that was not nice!" their mom said. She ran to Mia and hugged her. "Are you okay, sweetie?"
+
+"I'm okay, mom, but it hurts," Mia said. She pointed at her knee. It had a red scratch.
+
+Their mom looked at Sam and frowned. "Sam, you need to say sorry to Mia. You should not push your sister or anyone else. Pushing is mean and dangerous. How would you feel if someone pushed you?"
+
+Sam felt bad. He saw Mia's tears and her scratch. He remembered how much he loved his sister. He did not want to hurt her or make her sad. He walked to Mia and said, "I'm sorry, Mia. I was wrong. I should not have pushed you. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Mia looked at Sam and smiled. She saw that he was sorry and that he loved her. She said, "I forgive you, Sam. I love you, too. But next time, please wait for your turn."
+
+Their mom smiled, too. She said, "That's very good, Sam and Mia. I'm proud of you. Now, let's go to the slide together. But be careful and have fun."
+
+Sam and Mia nodded. They held hands and climbed up the ladder again. They saw the light of the sun shining on the slide. It looked like a rainbow. They saw the distant trees and birds and people. They felt happy and excited. They went down the slide one after the other, laughing and cheering. They learned to share and to be kind. They had a great day at the park.
+Anna was bored. She wanted to play with her friend Lily, but Lily was not home. Anna looked around her room. She saw her toys, her books, her bed. She wanted something new.
+
+She had an idea. She remembered that her mom had a telephone in her purse. A telephone was a thing that you could talk to people with. Anna wanted to talk to Lily. She ran to her mom's room. She searched for her mom's purse.
+
+She found it on the dresser. She opened it and looked inside. She saw a wallet, a key, a lipstick, a tissue. She did not see a telephone. She searched some more. She dumped everything out of the purse. She still did not see a telephone.
+
+She heard a voice. It was her mom. She was coming back from the kitchen. She said, "Anna, what are you doing?"
+
+Anna looked up. She saw her mom. She saw her mom's face. It was not happy. It was angry. Anna felt scared. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to find your telephone. I wanted to call Lily. I wanted to play with her."
+
+Her mom sighed. She picked up her things and put them back in her purse. She said, "Anna, you can't take my things without asking. That's not nice. And you can't call Lily without me. That's not safe. And you made a mess. That's not good."
+
+Anna felt sad. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I won't do it again. I just wanted to have fun."
+
+Her mom smiled. She said, "I know, Anna. I love you. But you have to follow the rules. And you have to use your own things. Look, I have something for you. It's a toy telephone. It's very charming. It has buttons and sounds and stickers. You can pretend to call Lily with it. Do you like it?"
+
+Anna's eyes lit up. She said, "Yes, mom. I love it. Thank you, mom. Can I play with it now?"
+
+Her mom nodded. She said, "Yes, you can. But first, you have to clean up your room. And then, you have to say sorry to Lily. And then, you can play with your toy telephone. OK?"
+
+Anna nodded. She said, "OK, mom. I will do that. Thank you, mom. You are the best mom."
+
+Her mom hugged her. She said, "You are welcome, Anna. You are the best daughter."
+Sam and Mia liked to play in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. But their favorite thing was to play in the mud. They made mud pies, mud castles and mud animals.
+
+One day, they saw a big mud puddle near the fence. They ran to it and jumped in. They splashed and laughed and got very dirty. They did not see the sign that said "Danger. Do not enter."
+
+A man was working on the other side of the fence. He was digging a hole with a big machine. He had a long rope that he used to pull the dirt out of the hole. He did not see the children in the mud puddle.
+
+"Hey, stop!" he shouted. "You are not supposed to be there. It is not safe. Get out of the mud now!"
+
+But Sam and Mia did not hear him. They were having too much fun. They did not want to stop. They did not listen.
+
+The man was angry. He was also in a hurry. He had to finish his work before it got dark. He was not patient. He decided to pull the rope anyway. He hoped the children would move.
+
+But they did not move. They did not see the rope. The rope was in the mud puddle. The rope was under the water. The rope was near their feet.
+
+The man pulled the rope hard. The rope moved fast. The rope caught Sam and Mia. The rope dragged them out of the mud puddle. The rope pulled them to the hole.
+
+Sam and Mia screamed. They were scared. They were hurt. They tried to let go of the rope. But it was too late. The rope was too strong. The hole was too deep.
+
+The man heard their screams. He saw their faces. He realized what he had done. He felt sorry. He felt bad. He tried to help them. But it was too late. He could not help them. They were gone.
+Tom and Anna like to watch films on the big TV. They have many films to choose from. Some are funny, some are scary, some are sad. Today, they want to watch a film about animals. They look at the boxes of the films and see pictures of lions, monkeys, birds, and fish.
+
+"I want to watch the film with the lions," Tom says. "They are large and strong and roar loud."
+
+"I want to watch the film with the fish," Anna says. "They are pretty and swim fast and make bubbles."
+
+They both hold their films and try to fit them in the TV. But the TV is too small for two films. They push and pull and argue.
+
+"Let go of my film!" Tom says.
+
+"No, you let go of mine!" Anna says.
+
+They hear a loud crack. They look at the TV and see that it is broken. The screen is black and the films are stuck. They feel sad and scared. They broke the TV and they can't watch any film.
+
+They hear their mom coming. They hide behind the couch and hope she won't be angry. They wish they had shared the TV and watched one film together. Maybe then they would have had fun and not broken the TV.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the park. They liked to run and slide and swing. They also liked to watch the pigeons. The pigeons were gray and white and made funny noises.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily saw a big pigeon on the grass. It had a shiny ring on its leg. Tom wanted to touch the ring. He ran to the pigeon and tried to catch it. But the pigeon was fast and flew away. Tom followed the pigeon and did not see where he was going.
+
+Lily saw Tom run into the street. She was scared. There were cars and bikes and buses in the street. They could hurt Tom. She shouted, "Tom, stop! Come back!" But Tom did not hear her. He only saw the pigeon.
+
+A car was coming fast. The driver saw Tom and braked hard. The car stopped just in time. Tom was very lucky. He did not get hit by the car. He looked around and saw the car and Lily and the pigeon. He was scared too. He ran back to Lily and hugged her. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was silly. I won't chase pigeons again."
+
+Lily hugged him back. She said, "I'm glad you're okay, Tom. I love you. Pigeons are not worth it. Let's go play on the slide." Tom nodded. He said, "I love you too, Lily. You're right. Slides are more fun." They held hands and went to the slide. They forgot about the pigeon. The pigeon flew away and found another park.
+Sara was a little girl who loved fairies. She had a fairy book, a fairy doll and a fairy dress. She wished she could see a real fairy someday.
+
+One night, she lay in her bed and looked at the stars. She saw a bright light in the sky. She thought it was a fairy. She got out of her bed and opened the window. She called out, "Hello, fairy! Are you there?"
+
+The light came closer and closer. Sara saw that it was a tiny fairy with wings and a wand. She was very happy. She said, "Hello, fairy! I'm Sara. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+The fairy smiled and said, "Hello, Sara! I'm Luna. I'm glad you saw me. I need your help. I'm worried."
+
+Sara asked, "Why are you worried, Luna? What's wrong?"
+
+Luna said, "I lost my way home. I was flying with my friends, but a big wind blew me away. I don't know where I am. Can you help me find my home?"
+
+Sara said, "Of course I can help you, Luna. You are my friend. Let's go to my fairy book. Maybe we can find a map of fairyland."
+
+Sara and Luna went to Sara's bookshelf and opened the fairy book. They looked at the pictures and the words. They found a map of fairyland. They saw where Luna's home was. It was in a forest with flowers and mushrooms.
+
+Sara said, "Look, Luna. Your home is here. It's not far from here. We can go there together. I have a flashlight and a backpack. We can take some snacks and water. Are you ready?"
+
+Luna said, "Yes, I'm ready, Sara. Thank you for helping me. You are very kind and brave. Let's go to fairyland."
+
+Sara and Luna packed their things and left the window. They flew in the night sky, following the map. They saw many beautiful things on the way. They saw the moon and the stars, the clouds and the rainbows, the birds and the butterflies. They talked and laughed and sang.
+
+Soon, they reached the forest. They saw the flowers and the mushrooms. They smelled the sweet and fresh air. They heard the music and the laughter. They saw Luna's friends. They were waiting for her. They were happy to see her.
+
+Luna said, "Sara, this is my home. This is where I live. These are my friends. They are fairies like me. They were worried about me. They are happy to see me. And they want to meet you. You are my friend. You are a fairy in your heart."
+
+Sara said, "Luna, this is your home. This is where you belong. These are your friends. They are fairies like you. They were worried about you. They are happy to see you. And I want to meet them. You are my friend. You are a fairy in my eyes."
+
+Luna and Sara hugged each other. They introduced each other to their friends. They joined the fairy party. They danced and played and ate and drank. They had a lot of fun. They were happy.
+
+The end.
+Tom and Sam were best friends. They liked to play in the park and dig holes in the dirt. One day, they found a big hole that someone else had dug. It was very deep and dark.
+
+"Let's go inside and see what's there," Tom said.
+
+"OK, but we need a flashlight," Sam said.
+
+They ran to Tom's house and asked his mom if they could borrow a flashlight. She said yes, but they had to be careful and come back soon.
+
+They took the flashlight and went back to the park. They climbed into the hole and turned on the light. They saw something incredible. It was a tunnel that went underground. It was full of shiny rocks and colorful bugs.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing!" Tom said.
+
+"Look, there's a door at the end of the tunnel!" Sam said.
+
+They walked to the door and opened it. They couldn't believe their eyes. It was a secret room with toys and books and candy. It was like a dream.
+
+"Who lives here?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know, but it's awesome!" Sam said.
+
+They played with the toys and ate some candy. They had so much fun that they forgot the time.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was the sound of the door closing. They ran to the door and tried to open it. It was locked. They were trapped.
+
+They heard a voice from the other side of the door. It was angry and scary.
+
+"Who are you and what are you doing in my room?" the voice said.
+
+Tom and Sam were very afraid. They realized they had made a big mistake. They wished they had never borrowed the flashlight and gone into the hole. They wished they had listened to Tom's mom and come back soon. They wished they could go home.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with dolls and cars. One day, Lily has a secret. She tells Ben, "I have a secret. Do you want to know?" Ben nods and says, "Yes, please. I like secrets."
+
+Lily whispers in Ben's ear, "I have a new doll. She is very pretty. She has a pink dress and long hair. I will bring her tomorrow. Do not tell anyone. It is a secret." Ben smiles and says, "Wow, that is a nice secret. I will not tell anyone. I promise."
+
+But Ben does not keep his promise. He tells Sam, another friend, about Lily's secret. He says, "Lily has a new doll. She is very pretty. She has a pink dress and long hair. She will bring her tomorrow. Do not tell anyone. It is a secret." Sam says, "Wow, that is a nice secret. I will not tell anyone. I promise."
+
+But Sam does not keep his promise either. He sends a note to Mia, another friend, about Lily's secret. He writes, "Lily has a new doll. She is very pretty. She has a pink dress and long hair. She will bring her tomorrow. Do not tell anyone. It is a secret." He gives the note to Mia. Mia says, "Wow, that is a nice secret. I will not tell anyone. I promise."
+
+But Mia does not keep her promise either. She shows the note to Lily. She says, "Look, Lily. I have a note. It is about your secret. Sam sent it to me. He knows about your new doll. Ben told him. They are rude. They broke your secret." Lily feels sad and angry. She says, "That is not nice. That is not fair. They are not my friends. They are rude. They broke my secret. I do not want to play with them. I do not want to show them my new doll. Go away, Mia. You are rude too. You showed me the note. You hurt my feelings."
+
+Lily runs away with tears in her eyes. She does not want to talk to anyone. She does not want to share her secret. She does not want to play with dolls and cars. She wants to be alone. She wants to hug her new doll. She hopes her new doll will be her friend. She hopes her new doll will not be rude. She hopes her new doll will keep her secret.
+Tim and Mia are adventurous kids. They like to explore new places and find new things. One day, they see a big box in the garage. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Tim says. He zips his jacket and puts on his hat. Mia nods and follows him. They go to the garage and push the box. It is heavy and hard to move.
+
+"Maybe we need a tool," Mia says. She looks around and sees a bulb. It is shiny and round. She picks it up and tries to fit it in the box. It does not work.
+
+"Maybe we need a key," Tim says. He looks around and sees a nail. It is sharp and long. He picks it up and tries to poke it in the box. It does not work.
+
+They are frustrated and sad. They want to see what is inside the box. They sit on the floor and think.
+
+"Maybe we need to ask," Mia says. She has an idea. She runs to the house and finds their dad. He is reading a book.
+
+"Dad, dad, can you help us?" Mia says. She pulls his arm and drags him to the garage. Tim follows them.
+
+"What do you need, sweetie?" Dad says. He sees the box and smiles. He knows what is inside.
+
+"We want to open the box. We tried a bulb and a nail, but they did not work. Do you have a key?" Mia says.
+
+Dad laughs and hugs them. He is proud of their adventurous spirit.
+
+"I do have a key, but it is a special key. It is a word. Do you want to know what it is?" Dad says.
+
+"Yes, yes, please tell us!" Tim and Mia say. They are curious and excited.
+
+Dad whispers the word in their ears. They repeat it and smile. They go to the box and say the word. The box opens and reveals a surprise. It is a tent, a flashlight and a map.
+
+"Wow, wow, wow!" Tim and Mia say. They are happy and amazed.
+
+"This is for you, my adventurous kids. You can use it to go camping in the backyard. Do you like it?" Dad says.
+
+"We love it, we love it, thank you, dad!" Tim and Mia say. They hug him and kiss him. They can't wait to set up the tent and explore the map. They have a new adventure waiting for them.
+Tim and Lily were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They made loud noises as they zoomed and crashed their cars on the carpet. They had fun pretending to be drivers and police.
+
+But then, they heard a growl from the kitchen. It was their big dog, Rex, who did not like the noise. Rex came out of the kitchen and barked at them. He looked angry and showed his teeth. Tim and Lily were scared. Rex was a threat to their game.
+
+"Stop, Rex!" Tim shouted. "Go away! We are playing!"
+
+But Rex did not listen. He walked towards them, still growling and barking. Tim and Lily paused their game and ran to the sofa. They climbed on it and hugged each other. They hoped Rex would leave them alone.
+
+"Mommy! Daddy! Help!" Lily cried. "Rex is mad at us!"
+
+Their parents heard their cries and came to the living room. They saw Rex standing in front of the sofa, still barking. They also saw Tim and Lily, who looked very frightened.
+
+"Rex, no!" their dad said. "Bad dog! Go to your bed!"
+
+He took Rex by the collar and led him to his bed in the corner. He gave him a stern look and told him to stay. Rex whimpered and lay down. He knew he had been naughty.
+
+Their mom went to the sofa and hugged Tim and Lily. She kissed them and told them they were safe.
+
+"Are you okay, my little ones?" she asked. "I'm sorry Rex scared you. He doesn't like loud noises. He was trying to protect us, but he went too far."
+
+Tim and Lily nodded. They felt better now that their mom was with them. They said they were sorry for making too much noise.
+
+"It's okay, sweeties," their mom said. "You can play with your cars, but please be quieter. And don't tease Rex. He's a good dog, but he needs his space."
+
+Tim and Lily agreed. They thanked their mom and dad for helping them. They got down from the sofa and picked up their cars. They resumed their game, but they were more careful and gentle. They also gave Rex a little pat and a treat. Rex wagged his tail and licked their hands. He was happy again. They were all friends.
+One day, a little rabbit was playing in the grass. He liked to jump and hop and run. He saw a big carrot and ran to get it. But he did not see the hunter hiding behind a tree. The hunter had a big gun and wanted to catch the rabbit.
+
+The hunter saw the rabbit and aimed his gun. He was very quiet and did not make a sound. He waited for the right moment to shoot. But the rabbit had big ears and heard a little click. He turned his head and saw the hunter and the gun.
+
+The rabbit was very scared and jumped as high as he could. He jumped over the gun and over the hunter's head. He ran away as fast as he could. He found his hole and went inside. He was safe and happy.
+
+The hunter was very angry and surprised. He missed the rabbit and shot the tree. He made a loud bang and scared the birds. He tried to chase the rabbit but he was too slow. He lost the rabbit and his gun.
+
+The rabbit peeked out of his hole and saw the hunter leaving. He said to himself, "That was a close one. I am glad I can jump so well. Jumping saved my life. I will be more careful next time. And I will share the carrot with my friends." He smiled and ate the carrot. He was a smart and brave rabbit.
+Tim and Lily like to play in the park. They like to swing on the swings, slide on the slides, and run on the grass. One day, they see a big, hairy dog in the park. The dog is not on a leash. It looks at them and barks.
+
+"Let's go say hi to the dog!" Tim says. He likes dogs. He thinks they are nice and fun.
+
+"No, Tim, don't!" Lily says. She is scared of dogs. She thinks they are mean and loud. "The dog might bite you!"
+
+But Tim does not listen to Lily. He runs to the dog and tries to pet it. The dog does not like Tim. It growls and snaps at him. It bites his hand and makes him cry.
+
+"Help, help!" Tim shouts. He drops to the ground and holds his hand. It hurts a lot. It bleeds a lot.
+
+Lily runs to Tim and tries to help him. She is very sad and sorry. She wishes she could make him feel better. She calls for help.
+
+A man comes to the park. He is the dog's owner. He sees what happened and gets angry. He yells at Tim and Lily. He says it is their fault. He says they should not have bothered his dog. He says his dog is not bad. He says they are bad.
+
+He takes his dog and leaves the park. He does not say sorry. He does not help Tim and Lily.
+
+Tim and Lily are alone in the park. They are hurt and scared. They want to go home. They want their mom and dad. They want a hug and a meal. They do not like the park anymore. They do not like the dog anymore. They do not like the man anymore. They have a bad day.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were knights and princesses. Tom had a toy sword and Lily had a crown.
+
+"Look, Lily, I am a brave knight. I will protect you from the dragon!" Tom said, waving his sword.
+
+Lily smiled and clapped her hands. "You are a good knight, Tom. I am a pretty princess. I will give you a kiss for saving me!"
+
+They ran around the park, having fun. But then, they saw a big dog. The dog was black and furry. It had sharp teeth and a loud bark. It looked like a dragon to Tom and Lily.
+
+The dog ran towards them, wagging its tail. It wanted to play with them. But Tom and Lily were scared. They thought the dog was a dragon.
+
+"Help, help! The dragon is coming!" Lily screamed, hiding behind Tom.
+
+Tom tried to be brave. He held his sword in front of him. He shouted at the dog. "Go away, dragon! You can't hurt us!"
+
+But the dog did not go away. It jumped on Tom and licked his face. It knocked down his sword and his hat. It wagged its tail and barked.
+
+Tom and Lily were very afraid. They did not like the dog. They did not think it was cute. They started to cry.
+
+A lady came running to them. She was the dog's owner. She saw Tom and Lily crying. She felt sorry for them.
+
+"Oh, I'm so sorry, kids. He didn't mean to scare you. He's a friendly dog. He just wanted to say hello. He's very cute, don't you think?" She said, petting the dog.
+
+Tom and Lily looked at the lady. They looked at the dog. They saw that the dog was not a dragon. He was just a big, black, furry dog. He had a red collar and a name tag. His name was Spot.
+
+Tom and Lily stopped crying. They felt silly. They realized that the dog was not mean. He was just playful. He was cute, in a way.
+
+They smiled at the lady. They smiled at the dog. They said sorry for being scared.
+
+"It's okay, kids. It's okay, Spot. You can all be friends now. Do you want to pet him? He likes that." The lady said, holding the dog's leash.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They reached out their hands. They touched the dog's fur. It was soft and warm. The dog licked their hands. He wagged his tail. He barked happily.
+
+Tom and Lily laughed. They liked the dog. They liked Spot. They were not afraid anymore.
+
+They played with Spot and the lady. They threw a ball for him. They gave him a hug. They said thank you to the lady.
+
+They learned that sometimes things are not what they seem. They learned that sometimes things are cute, even if they look scary. They learned that sometimes things are friendly, even if they sound loud.
+
+They had fun in the park. They were happy. They were brave. They were knights and princesses. And they had a new friend. A cute, furry, friendly friend. A friend named Spot.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the living room. They have many toys and books on the floor. Mom is in the kitchen, making lunch. She has her phone on the table.
+
+"Look, Ben, I have Mom's phone!" Lily says, picking up the phone. She likes to press the buttons and see the colors.
+
+"No, Lily, put it back! Mom needs her phone!" Ben says, running after Lily. He knows that Mom's phone is important and not a toy.
+
+"Stop, Ben, you are too loud!" Lily says, running away from Ben. She thinks that Ben is silly and wants to take her phone.
+
+"Lily, Ben, what are you doing?" Mom says, coming out of the kitchen. She sees Lily holding her phone and Ben chasing her. She looks worried and angry.
+
+"Mom, Lily took your phone!" Ben says, pointing at Lily.
+
+"Lily, give me my phone, please. It is not a toy. It is very expensive and you can break it." Mom says, holding out her hand.
+
+Lily feels bad. She did not know that Mom's phone was expensive and not a toy. She gives Mom her phone and says sorry.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. I'm glad you are sorry. Next time, be more careful and ask me before you touch my phone." Mom says, hugging Lily.
+
+"OK, Mom. I will be more careful." Lily says, hugging Mom back.
+
+Mom smiles and says, "Now, let's clean up this mess. You can help me put away your toys and books."
+
+Lily and Ben nod and say, "OK, Mom. We will help you clean."
+
+They all work together to clean the living room. Mom is happy and proud of her children. Lily and Ben are happy and proud of themselves. They learn to be more careful and respectful.
+Sam and Mia like to play in the garden. They have many toys, but their favorite is a big truck that can drive on the grass. They take turns to drive the truck and make loud noises.
+
+One day, they see a caterpillar on a leaf. It is green and fuzzy and has many legs. Sam and Mia are curious. They want to touch it and see what it does.
+
+"Can we drive the truck to the caterpillar?" Sam asks.
+
+"OK, but be careful. Don't hurt it," Mia says.
+
+They drive the truck slowly to the leaf. The caterpillar sees them and curls up into a ball. Sam and Mia stop the truck and get out. They bend down to look at the caterpillar.
+
+"Hello, caterpillar. What are you doing?" Sam says.
+
+The caterpillar does not answer. It stays in a ball.
+
+"Maybe it is scared of us. Or maybe it is sleeping," Mia says.
+
+She reaches out her hand to touch the caterpillar gently. But before she can, a loud voice makes them jump.
+
+"Hey, what are you kids doing? Get away from my plants!" It is Mr. Lee, the neighbor. He is nosy and grumpy. He does not like Sam and Mia playing in the garden.
+
+Sam and Mia are scared. They run back to the truck and drive away. They leave the caterpillar alone.
+
+"Sorry, caterpillar. We just wanted to be your friends," Mia says.
+
+The caterpillar uncurls and looks at them. It does not mind. It goes back to eating the leaf.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a big, old tree with many holes. They wanted to explore the tree and see what was inside.
+
+"Look, Ben, a hole!" Lila said, pointing to a hole near the ground. "Let's go in and see what's there."
+
+"OK, Lila, but be careful. It might be dark and scary," Ben said, following her.
+
+They crawled into the hole and saw a tunnel. They followed the tunnel until they reached a big room. The room was full of shiny things and colorful things. They saw jewels, coins, books, toys, and clothes. They also saw a big mirror on the wall.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing!" Lila said, picking up a necklace. "Maybe this is a treasure room. Maybe someone hid it here long ago."
+
+"Maybe, Lila, but we should not touch anything. It might be magic," Ben said, looking around nervously. "Maybe this is a trap. Maybe someone is watching us."
+
+Lila did not listen to Ben. She put on the necklace and looked at herself in the mirror. She smiled and said, "I look like a princess. Do you like it, Ben?"
+
+Ben looked at Lila and gasped. Lila was shrinking. She was getting smaller and smaller. She was as small as a mouse. She was as small as a bug. She was as small as a speck.
+
+"Lila, Lila, what's happening to you?" Ben shouted, running to her. "Take off the necklace. It's making you shrink."
+
+But Lila could not take off the necklace. It was too tight around her neck. She could not speak. She could only squeak. She was scared and sad.
+
+Ben tried to help Lila, but he could not reach her. She was too small. She fell off the table and landed on the floor. She saw a big shadow looming over her. It was a spider. The spider had eight legs and eight eyes. It was hungry and angry. It wanted to eat Lila.
+
+Lila screamed and ran away from the spider. She saw a feather on the floor. It was a wing. It was a wing from a bird. Lila had an idea. She grabbed the wing and tied it to her back. She flapped the wing and flew into the air. She escaped from the spider.
+
+"Ben, Ben, help me!" Lila cried, flying around the room. "I'm flying, but I don't want to fly. I want to be big again. I want to go home."
+
+Ben heard Lila's voice. He looked up and saw her flying with the wing. He was happy and sad. He was happy that she was alive and safe. He was sad that she was so small and far.
+
+"Lila, Lila, I'm here. I'm sorry. I don't know how to help you. I don't know how to make you big again. I don't know how to get out of here," Ben said, crying.
+
+They did not know what to do. They did not know how to fix their problem. They did not know that the mirror was a magic mirror. They did not know that the mirror could make things shrink or grow. They did not know that the mirror was ancient and powerful. They did not know that the mirror was waiting for a word. A word that could change everything. A word that they knew. A word that they said every day. A word that they said when they were happy or sad. A word that they said when they were sorry or thankful. A word that they said when they loved each other.
+
+"Please," they said. "Please."
+Lily liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She wanted to be a good helper. She saw her mom put dirty plates and cups in the dishwasher. She asked, "Can I help you, mom?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Yes, you can, Lily. You can bring me the spoons and forks from the table. They go in the dishwasher too."
+
+Lily was happy. She ran to the table and picked up a spoon. She held it in her hand and walked to the dishwasher. She opened the door and put the spoon in a slot. She closed the door and ran back to the table. She did the same with a fork, and then another spoon, and then another fork.
+
+She was having fun. She felt like she was playing a game. She sang a song as she brought the spoons and forks to the dishwasher. Her mom heard her and laughed. She said, "You are such a charming helper, Lily. You make me happy."
+
+Lily felt proud. She hugged her mom and said, "I love you, mom. You are the best mom ever." Her mom hugged her back and said, "I love you too, Lily. You are the best helper ever." They finished putting the dishes in the dishwasher and turned it on. They heard it make a noise and saw it make bubbles. They clapped their hands and danced in the kitchen. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily are brother and sister. They like to play in the dark with their flashlight. They turn off all the lights in their room and hide under the bed. They take turns to shine the flashlight on the wall and make funny shapes with their hands.
+
+"Look, Lily, I made a bunny!" Ben says, moving his fingers to make ears and a nose.
+
+"That's not a bunny, that's a duck!" Lily says, laughing. "See, it has a beak and a tail!"
+
+They giggle and make more shapes. They see a cat, a star, a fish, and a monster.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud noise outside. They hear their mom and dad shouting. They are scared. They grab their flashlight and crawl out from under the bed. They run to the window and look outside.
+
+They see a big truck with a red light on top. They see men in yellow clothes and hats. They see a hose with water coming out. They see smoke and fire.
+
+"Mom, dad, what's happening?" Ben asks, holding Lily's hand.
+
+"Don't worry, kids, it's just a fire drill. The firemen are here to practice how to put out fires. They are not real fires, they are fake fires. It's safe and fun." Mom says, hugging them.
+
+"Can we watch?" Lily asks, curious.
+
+"Sure, but stay close to us. And don't touch anything." Dad says, smiling.
+
+Ben and Lily watch the firemen jump on and off the truck. They watch them roll the hose and spray the water. They watch them climb the ladder and break the window. They watch them put out the fake fires and wave to them.
+
+They think the firemen are brave and cool. They think the fire drill is exciting and funny. They clap their hands and cheer. They are happy. They love their flashlight. They love their mom and dad. They love each other.
+Lily liked to paint. She had many colors to paint with. She had red, blue, yellow, green, and more. She painted flowers, trees, animals, and houses. She was happy when she painted.
+
+One day, she wanted to paint a lime. A lime was a small green fruit. She liked to eat limes. They were sour and juicy. She looked for her green paint, but she could not find it. She was sad.
+
+She asked her brother Tom, "Do you have green paint? I want to paint a lime."
+
+Tom was ignorant. He did not like to paint. He liked to play with cars and trucks. He did not know what a lime was. He said, "No, I don't have green paint. Why do you want to paint a lime? What is a lime?"
+
+Lily was angry. She said, "A lime is a fruit. It is green and sour. You are ignorant. You don't know anything."
+
+Tom was angry too. He said, "I am not ignorant. You are ignorant. You don't know how to play with cars and trucks. They are fun and fast. You are silly."
+
+They started to fight. They pushed and pulled each other. They shouted and cried.
+
+Their mom heard them. She came to see what was wrong. She saw them fighting. She was not happy. She said, "Stop fighting. Why are you fighting?"
+
+Lily and Tom told her. They both said, "He/she is ignorant. He/she doesn't know what a lime is/ how to play with cars and trucks."
+
+Their mom said, "You are both ignorant. You don't know how to share and be kind. You don't know how to respect each other's interests. You don't know how to learn from each other. You need to apologize and make up."
+
+Lily and Tom felt ashamed. They said, "We are sorry. We were ignorant. We will share and be kind. We will respect each other's interests. We will learn from each other."
+
+Their mom smiled. She said, "That's good. Now, let's find your green paint and your cars and trucks. Maybe you can paint a lime and play with cars and trucks together. Maybe you can teach each other something new."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They hugged each other. They said, "Thank you, mom. We love you."
+
+They found their green paint and their cars and trucks. They painted a lime and played with cars and trucks together. They taught each other something new. They were happy.
+Patch was a dog who liked to play with his ball. He would run and jump and catch the ball in his mouth. He was very happy.
+
+One day, he saw a big truck on the road. The truck was loud and fast. Patch wanted to chase the truck, so he ran after it. He did not see the car that was coming from the other side.
+
+"Patch, no!" his owner shouted. He ran after Patch, but he was too far. He was scared for Patch.
+
+The car saw Patch and tried to stop, but it was too late. It hit Patch with a loud bang. Patch flew in the air and landed on the grass. He did not move. He was hurt.
+
+His owner reached him and picked him up. He was crying. He hugged Patch and said, "I'm sorry, Patch. I love you. Please be okay."
+
+He took Patch to the vet. The vet was a nice lady who helped animals. She looked at Patch and said, "He is very brave. He has a broken leg and some cuts, but he will be fine. He needs a bandage and some medicine. He will have to rest for a while, but he will play again."
+
+She wrapped Patch's leg with a white cloth. She gave him a shot and a pill. She gave him a kiss and said, "You are a good boy, Patch. You are lucky to have such a loving owner. He saved you."
+
+Patch felt a little better. He licked his owner's face and wagged his tail. He was still sad, but he was also grateful. He learned a lesson. He would never chase trucks again. He would stay with his owner and his ball. He was happy.
+Jill and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big dog with a long neck and a smelly fur. Jill wanted to pet the dog, but Ben was scared.
+
+"Come on, Ben, he is nice. He won't bite you," Jill said.
+
+"No, no, no, he is bad. He will hurt us. He is too big and too smelly," Ben said.
+
+Jill walked towards the dog. She reached out her hand and touched his head. The dog licked her face and wagged his tail. Jill laughed and hugged him.
+
+"See, Ben, he is friendly. He likes me. You should try too," Jill said.
+
+Ben shook his head. He did not believe Jill. He thought the dog was still dangerous. He stayed behind a tree and watched.
+
+The dog saw Ben and ran towards him. He wanted to play with him too. He barked and jumped around him.
+
+"Help, help, help, he is attacking me. Go away, go away, go away," Ben screamed.
+
+Jill ran after the dog. She tried to calm him down. She told him to stop and sit. The dog obeyed. He sat and looked at Jill and Ben.
+
+"Ben, he is not attacking you. He is playing with you. He is a good dog. You should not be afraid of him. He just wants to be your friend," Jill said.
+
+Ben looked at the dog. He saw his big eyes and his wet nose. He saw his long neck and his smelly fur. He saw his tongue and his teeth. He felt his heart beating fast. He did not know what to do.
+
+"Jill, I don't like him. He is too big and too smelly. He scares me. I want to go home," Ben said.
+
+Jill sighed. She did not understand Ben. She liked the dog. She wanted to stay with him. She wanted Ben to like him too.
+
+"OK, Ben, we can go home. But can we say goodbye to the dog first? He is lonely. He needs some love," Jill said.
+
+Ben nodded. He did not want to be rude. He walked slowly to the dog. He touched his head. The dog licked his hand and wagged his tail. Ben smiled a little. He felt the dog was warm and soft. He felt the dog was happy and gentle. He felt the dog was not so bad after all.
+
+"Goodbye, dog. Thank you for playing with us. Maybe we will see you again," Ben said.
+
+The dog barked and licked Ben's face. He thanked him for being brave and kind. He hoped they would come back soon.
+
+Jill and Ben waved to the dog. They left the park. They held hands and walked home. They talked about the dog. They agreed he was nice. They agreed he was smelly. They agreed they would visit him again. They believed they had made a new friend.
+Tim and Mia were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. They laughed and had fun.
+
+But then the ball rolled into a big puddle of mud. Tim and Mia ran to get it, but they slipped and fell into the mud too. They were wet and dirty and their clothes were brown.
+
+"Oh no!" Tim said. "Mom will be angry. She told us to stay clean."
+
+Mia started to cry. "I don't like mud. It's yucky and cold."
+
+They heard a voice behind them. It was an elderly lady who was walking her dog. She saw Tim and Mia in the mud and smiled.
+
+"Hello, children," she said. "Are you having a good time?"
+
+Tim and Mia looked at her and frowned. They did not think she was nice. They thought she was making fun of them.
+
+"No, we are not," Tim said. "We lost our ball and we are dirty and we are sad."
+
+The elderly lady bent down and picked up the ball. It was covered in mud, but she did not mind. She wiped it with her scarf and gave it to Tim.
+
+"Here you go," she said. "Don't worry about the mud. It will wash off. And don't be sad. Mud can be fun too. Look at my dog. He loves to roll in the mud. He thinks it's a game."
+
+She pointed to her dog, who was wagging his tail and jumping in the puddle. He was also wet and dirty and happy.
+
+Tim and Mia looked at the dog and then at each other. They felt a little better. Maybe the elderly lady was not so bad. Maybe mud was not so bad. Maybe they could still have fun.
+
+They smiled and thanked the lady for the ball. Then they joined the dog in the puddle and splashed and played. They laughed and had fun.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with colors. They have many crayons and papers. They want to make a picture for their teacher. She is very nice and helps them learn.
+
+They sit on the floor and prepare to draw. Lily picks a red crayon. Ben picks a blue one. They start to make shapes and lines on their papers. They are happy and quiet.
+
+But then, a big noise makes them jump. It is Max, the naughty boy. He runs into the room and sees their colors. He wants to play too, but not nicely. He grabs their crayons and papers and throws them in the air. He laughs and says, "Colors are for babies!"
+
+Lily and Ben are sad and angry. Their picture is ruined. They look at Max and say, "You are terrible! You are not our friend! Go away!"
+
+Max does not care. He runs away with some crayons. He thinks he is funny. But he is not. He is mean.
+
+Lily and Ben pick up their papers and crayons. They are dirty and broken. They cannot make a new picture. They hug each other and cry. They hope their teacher will understand. They still love her.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the backyard. They liked to make noises and pretend they were racing or chasing each other. Lily had a red car and Ben had a blue car.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, I'm faster than you!" Lily said, zooming past Ben.
+
+"No, you're not, I'm catching up!" Ben said, following her.
+
+They reached the fence and saw a big truck parked on the street. It was fat and shiny and had a long hose. A man was holding the hose and spraying water on a house. The house had smoke and flame coming out of the windows.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Lily said, stopping her car.
+
+"What is he doing?" Ben asked, stopping his car too.
+
+"He's a fireman, he's trying to put out the fire," Lily said.
+
+"How did the fire start?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know, maybe someone was cooking and forgot to turn off the stove," Lily said.
+
+"Or maybe someone was playing with matches and made a big mess," Ben said.
+
+"That's bad, you should never play with matches, they're dangerous," Lily said.
+
+"Yeah, they can shoot flame and burn things," Ben said.
+
+They watched the fireman work for a while, then they heard a loud siren. Another truck came and joined the fireman. It had a ladder and more hoses.
+
+"Look, they're going to climb up and save the people inside," Lily said.
+
+"I hope they're okay," Ben said.
+
+They held hands and prayed for the people in the house. They felt sad and scared, but also glad that the fireman was there to help. They decided to go back to their cars and play something else. They didn't want to play with fire anymore.
+Anna and Ben love to go swim in the lake. They always wear their swim suits and hats and put on sun cream. Mom and Dad tell them to be patient and wait for them by the shore. They say they will come soon with the picnic basket and the towels.
+
+Anna and Ben nod and run to the water. They splash and play and have fun. They see some fish and ducks and frogs. They laugh and shout and sing. They are very happy.
+
+But after a while, they start to feel cold and hungry. They look for Mom and Dad, but they do not see them. They wonder where they are. They start to feel sad and scared.
+
+"Where are Mom and Dad?" Anna asks Ben.
+
+"I don't know," Ben says. "Maybe they are lost. Maybe they forgot us."
+
+"No, they didn't," Anna says. "They love us. They will come soon. We have to be patient."
+
+"But I'm cold and hungry," Ben says. "And I want a hug."
+
+"Me too," Anna says. "But we have to be brave. Let's hold hands and wait. They will come soon."
+
+They hold hands and sit on the sand. They try to be patient. They hope Mom and Dad will come soon.
+
+Then they hear a sound. They look up and see a big red car. It is Mom and Dad's car. They see Mom and Dad waving and smiling. They have the picnic basket and the towels.
+
+"Mom! Dad!" Anna and Ben shout. They jump up and run to them. They hug and kiss them.
+
+"We're sorry we took so long," Mom says. "We had some trouble with the car. But we fixed it and we're here now. We're so proud of you for being patient and waiting for us."
+
+"We were scared," Anna says.
+
+"We were cold and hungry," Ben says.
+
+"We know, sweeties," Dad says. "But you did great. You were very brave. And now we have a surprise for you."
+
+"What is it?" Anna and Ben ask.
+
+Dad opens the picnic basket and takes out a big cake. It has candles and frosting and sprinkles. It says "Happy Birthday Anna and Ben!"
+
+"It's your birthday!" Mom says. "We wanted to celebrate with you by the lake. We have cake and juice and sandwiches and cookies and fruit. And we have some presents for you too."
+
+Anna and Ben are very surprised and happy. They forget their fear and cold and hunger. They thank Mom and Dad and blow out the candles. They eat the cake and the other food. They open their presents and see some books and toys and clothes. They are very happy.
+
+They go swim in the lake again. They splash and play and have fun. They see some fish and ducks and frogs. They laugh and shout and sing. They are very happy.
+Tommy was a big boy who liked to play with his toy cars. He had many cars of different colors and sizes, but his favorite was a yellow fire truck. He liked to pretend he was a brave firefighter who saved people and animals from fires. He also liked to wear his red uniform that his daddy gave him. His daddy was a real firefighter who worked at the fire station.
+
+One day, Tommy's daddy came home early from work. He looked sad and tired. He hugged Tommy and said, "I have to leave soon, buddy. There is a big fire in the city and I have to help put it out. I don't know when I will be back, but I love you very much. Be good for mommy, okay?"
+
+Tommy nodded and said, "I love you too, daddy. Can I go with you? I can help you with my yellow fire truck. I have a uniform too, see?" He showed his daddy his red shirt and hat.
+
+Daddy smiled and said, "You are very sweet, Tommy, but you can't come with me. It's too dangerous for you. You have to stay here with mommy and play with your cars. Maybe when I come back, we can play together, okay?"
+
+Tommy felt sad and scared. He didn't want his daddy to leave. He wanted to be with him and help him. He said, "Okay, daddy. But please be careful. Don't get hurt. I will wait for you."
+
+Daddy kissed Tommy and said, "I will, buddy. I will. I promise." He put on his yellow helmet and coat and left with his big fire truck.
+
+Tommy watched him go and waved goodbye. He hoped his daddy would come back soon. He went to his room and played with his yellow fire truck. He pretended he was with his daddy, fighting the fire and saving people and animals. He made siren noises and shouted, "Fire! Fire! We are here to help!"
+
+But his daddy didn't come back soon. He didn't come back at all. The fire was too big and too hot. It burned his daddy and his big fire truck. Tommy never saw his daddy again. He only had his yellow fire truck and his red uniform to remember him by. He cried and cried and cried. He wished he could have gone with his daddy. He wished he could have saved him. He wished he could have said goodbye.
+One night, Ben and Lily were in their beds. They heard a strange noise from the hall. It sounded like a moan. They were scared.
+
+"Ben, what is that?" Lily whispered.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a ghost!" Ben said.
+
+They hid under their blankets and hoped the noise would go away. But it did not. It got louder and closer. They saw a shadow on the wall. It looked like a big, scary shape.
+
+"Go away, ghost!" Ben shouted.
+
+The shadow stopped. Then, a voice said, "I'm not a ghost. I'm your dad."
+
+Ben and Lily peeked out from their blankets. They saw their dad standing in the hall. He was wearing a white sheet over his head. He had a big smile on his face.
+
+"Dad, you scared us!" Lily said.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids. I was just playing a joke. It's Halloween, remember?" Dad said.
+
+He took off the sheet and hugged them. He gave them some candy and said, "Happy Halloween!"
+
+Ben and Lily laughed. They were not scared anymore. They ate their candy and said, "Happy Halloween, dad!"
+
+They learned that not everything that seems unknown is a ghost. Sometimes, it is just a joke.
+Mila and Ben were playing with their toy volcano in the backyard. They liked to pretend that it was a real volcano that could erupt and make lava. They used red clay and baking soda to make the lava, and vinegar to make it fizz.
+
+"Let's cover the volcano with rocks and dirt, and see what happens when it erupts!" Ben said. He was very curious and liked to try new things.
+
+"Okay, but be careful. We don't want to make a big mess," Mila said. She was more cautious and liked to follow the rules.
+
+They worked together to cover the volcano with rocks and dirt, leaving a small hole at the top. Then they poured some vinegar into the hole and waited.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Ben exclaimed, as the volcano erupted and the lava spilled out of the hole. "It looks like a real volcano!"
+
+"It does, but it also looks like a big mess," Mila said, as she saw the lava stain the grass and the rocks. "We have to clean it up before Mom sees it."
+
+"Don't worry, I have an idea," Ben said. He ran inside and came back with a big bucket of water. "We can use this to wash away the lava."
+
+"Good idea, Ben. You are very dependable," Mila said. She smiled and helped him carry the bucket. They poured the water over the volcano and the lava, and watched as they dissolved and washed away.
+
+They cleaned up the rest of the rocks and dirt, and put the toy volcano back in its box. They were proud of their experiment, and happy that they worked together.
+
+"Let's play with the volcano again tomorrow," Ben said.
+
+"Okay, but next time, let's do it on a tray or a mat, so we don't make a mess," Mila said.
+
+They agreed and hugged each other. They were the best of friends.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the park with their toy cars. They liked to pretend they were driving fast and making loud noises. Tim had a red car and Lily had a blue car.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, I'm the fastest car in the world!" Tim said, zooming past Lily.
+
+"No, you're not, I'm the fastest car in the world!" Lily said, chasing after Tim.
+
+They raced around the grass, the swings, and the slide. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then they saw a big, black car parked near the gate. It was shiny and had four doors and a long trunk. It looked very different from their toy cars.
+
+"Wow, look at that car!" Tim said, stopping his red car.
+
+"It's so big and pretty!" Lily said, stopping her blue car.
+
+They walked closer to the big car and peeked inside. They saw leather seats, a big screen, and a lot of buttons. They also saw a chubby man sitting in the driver's seat. He was wearing a suit and a hat and had a big watch on his wrist.
+
+"Hello, little ones," the man said, smiling. "Do you like my car?"
+
+"Yes, sir, we do," Tim said, politely. "It's a very nice car."
+
+"Thank you, thank you," the man said, proudly. "It's a luxury car. It's very expensive and comfortable. It has a lot of features. Do you want to see?"
+
+Tim and Lily nodded, curious.
+
+The man pressed a button and the car made a loud roar. Tim and Lily jumped back, scared.
+
+"What was that?" Tim asked, holding his ears.
+
+"That was the engine," the man said, laughing. "It's very powerful and fast. It can go faster than any other car. Do you want to hear it again?"
+
+Tim and Lily shook their heads, no.
+
+The man pressed another button and the car made a soft beep. The trunk opened and a lot of bags came out. They had clothes, shoes, and toys inside.
+
+"What are those?" Lily asked, pointing.
+
+"Those are my things," the man said, smiling. "I have a lot of things. I like to buy things. I have more things than anyone else. Do you want to see?"
+
+Tim and Lily nodded, interested.
+
+The man showed them his things. He had a lot of things. He had things they had never seen before. He had things they liked and things they didn't like. He had things they wanted and things they didn't want.
+
+"Wow, you have a lot of things," Tim said, looking around.
+
+"Yes, yes, I do," the man said, happily. "I have more things than I need. I have more things than I can use. I have more things than I can enjoy. Do you want some of my things?"
+
+Tim and Lily looked at each other, confused.
+
+They liked some of the things, but they didn't need them. They had their own things, and they were happy with them. They had their toy cars, and they had each other.
+
+They shook their heads, no.
+
+"Thank you, sir, but no thank you," Tim said, politely. "We have enough things. We have our toy cars, and we have fun with them."
+
+"Yes, thank you, sir, but no thank you," Lily said, politely. "We have enough things. We have our toy cars, and we have each other."
+
+The man looked surprised and sad. He didn't understand. He thought they would want his things. He thought his things would make them happy. He thought his things would make him happy.
+
+But they didn't.
+
+He closed his trunk and got back in his car. He pressed a button and the car made a loud roar. He drove away, leaving Tim and Lily behind.
+
+Tim and Lily waved goodbye, then picked up their toy cars. They smiled at each other and ran back to the park. They raced around the grass, the swings, and the slide. They had a lot of fun.
+Sara and Tom like to play with their toy boat in the bathtub. They fill the tub with water and bubbles and pretend they are sailing on a big sea. Sometimes they make waves with their hands and splash each other.
+
+One day, Sara and Tom have a problem. They both want to hold the boat and steer it. Sara says, "It is my turn. I want the boat." Tom says, "No, it is my turn. I want the boat." They pull the boat from each other and start to fight.
+
+"Stop!" Mom says. She comes into the bathroom and sees the mess. "You are making too much noise and water. And you are hurting the boat. It is delicate. It can break."
+
+Sara and Tom look at the boat. They see a crack on the side. They feel sad and sorry. They do not want to break the boat. They like the boat.
+
+Mom says, "You need to share the boat and take turns. You need to yield. That means to let the other have it sometimes. Can you do that?"
+
+Sara and Tom nod. They say, "Yes, Mom. We can yield. We can share the boat and take turns." They hug each other and say, "Sorry." Mom smiles and says, "Good. Now you can play nicely and have fun." She gives them a towel and a kiss. Sara and Tom dry off and play with the boat again. They yield and share and have fun.
+Mia and Leo are twins. They like to go to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They see many animals that are big and small, loud and quiet, fast and slow. They join a tour with a nice lady who tells them about the animals.
+
+"Look, Mia and Leo, this is a lion. He is the king of the animals. He has a furry mane and sharp teeth. He can roar very loud. Do you want to hear him roar?" the lady asks.
+
+"Yes, yes, please!" Mia and Leo say. They are not scared of the lion. They think he is beautiful and strong.
+
+The lady claps her hands and calls the lion. The lion comes closer to the fence and looks at the tour. He opens his mouth and roars. Mia and Leo clap their hands and laugh. They are happy to hear the lion roar.
+
+"Wow, that was amazing! Thank you, lady!" Mia and Leo say.
+
+"You're welcome, Mia and Leo. I'm glad you like the lion. Do you want to see more animals?" the lady asks.
+
+"Yes, yes, please! We want to see more animals!" Mia and Leo say.
+
+They follow the lady to the next cage. They see a monkey. He is furry and funny. He swings on a vine and makes faces. Mia and Leo giggle. They like the monkey. They want to join him and play. They have fun at the zoo.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play outside in the snow. They wear warm coats and hats and gloves and scarves. Anna has a red scarf and Ben has a blue scarf.
+
+One day, they make a big snowman. They give him a carrot nose and a hat and a scarf. They use Ben's blue scarf for the snowman. They are very happy with their snowman. They call him Bob.
+
+But then, a playful dog comes running. He sees the snowman and thinks it is a toy. He jumps on the snowman and tries to pull his scarf. Anna and Ben are scared. They call to the dog, "No, no, bad dog! Leave Bob alone!"
+
+The dog does not listen. He pulls harder and harder. He makes the snowman fall down. He runs away with the scarf in his mouth. Anna and Ben are sad. They look at their broken snowman. They miss their scarf.
+
+They go home and tell their moms what happened. Their moms hug them and say, "It's OK, don't cry. We can make another snowman tomorrow. And we can get you a new scarf. Maybe a green one or a yellow one. What do you think?"
+
+Anna and Ben smile. They say, "Thank you, mom. We love you. And we love Bob, too. He was a good snowman." They hope the dog will be nice to the scarf and not chew it. They look forward to playing outside again.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. But they do not like to share. Sometimes they fight over the same toy and make a lot of noise.
+
+One day, their mom gives them a new toy each. Anna gets a doll and Ben gets a car. They are very happy and run to their room. But on the way, they see a big stair. They want to go up the stair and see what is on the other side.
+
+"Let's go up the stair!" Anna says.
+
+"OK, but I will go first!" Ben says.
+
+They start to climb the stair, holding their toys. But the stair is too high and steep for them. They lose their balance and drop their toys. The toys fall down the stair and break into pieces.
+
+Anna and Ben are very sad and scared. They cry and call for their mom.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to help. She sees the broken toys and the scared twins. She hugs them and says:
+
+"I'm sorry you dropped your toys. But you should not have gone up the stair. It is not safe for you. It is for grown-ups only. You should have stayed in your room and played with your toys. And you should have shared and been nice to each other. Then you would have had more fun and less trouble."
+
+Anna and Ben nod and say they are sorry. They learn their lesson. They go back to their room and find some other toys to play with. They share and take turns and say please and thank you. They are happy and quiet. Mom is proud of them. They are different from before. They are better.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play at the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. One day, they saw a big truck at the park. The truck had a big picture of a shark on it. Lily and Tom were curious. They wanted to see the shark.
+
+They ran to the truck and looked inside. They saw a big tank with water and a shark. The shark was gray and had many teeth. It looked scary. Lily and Tom were afraid. They wanted to run away. But a man came out of the truck. He smiled and said, "Hello, kids. Do you want to see the shark?"
+
+Lily and Tom shook their heads. They said, "No, thank you. The shark is scary. We don't like it." The man said, "Don't be afraid. The shark is not scary. It is sweet. It is my friend. I take care of it. It likes to eat fish and play with toys. Do you want to feed it and play with it?"
+
+Lily and Tom looked at each other. They were not sure. They liked to feed and play with animals, but they had never seen a shark before. They said, "Can we try?" The man said, "Sure. Come with me. I will show you how to feed and play with the shark. It is fun."
+
+Lily and Tom followed the man. He gave them some fish and some toys. He said, "Throw the fish into the tank. The shark will eat them. Then throw the toys into the tank. The shark will chase them and bring them back. The shark likes to play fetch." Lily and Tom threw the fish and the toys into the tank. The shark ate the fish and chased the toys. It brought them back to the man. The shark made a funny noise. It sounded like a laugh. Lily and Tom laughed too. They were not afraid anymore. They liked the shark. They said, "The shark is sweet. It is your friend. It is our friend too." The man said, "I'm glad you like the shark. The shark likes you too. You are very brave and kind. Thank you for playing with the shark." Lily and Tom said, "You're welcome. Thank you for showing us the shark. Can we come back and play with it again?" The man said, "Of course. You can come back anytime. The shark will be happy to see you." Lily and Tom said, "Yay! We will come back soon. Bye, shark. Bye, man." They waved and ran back to the park. They had a new friend. They had a sweet shark.

+
+Sara says, "I want the bottle. It is mine." Ben says, "No, I want the bottle. It is mine." They pull the bottle from each other. They are angry. They do not share. The bottle is not happy. It wants to make bubbles.
+
+The bottle has a plan. It shakes itself. It makes a loud noise. Sara and Ben are scared. They let go of the bottle. The bottle rolls away. It stops near a big tree. The tree is dependable. It is strong and tall. It has many leaves.
+
+The bottle says, "Thank you, tree. You are dependable. You can help me." The tree says, "You are welcome, bottle. You are brave. You can make bubbles." The bottle says, "Yes, I can. I like to make bubbles. They are fun and pretty. Do you want to see?" The tree says, "Yes, I do. I like to see bubbles. They are colorful and light."
+
+The bottle and the tree are happy. They are friends. The bottle blows bubbles. The tree catches them. The bubbles float in the air. They sparkle in the sun. Sara and Ben see the bubbles. They are curious. They follow the bubbles. They find the bottle and the tree. They say, "Wow, look at the bubbles. They are beautiful. Can we play with them?" The bottle says, "Yes, you can.

+Mia loves jazz. She likes to listen to the music with her dad. They tap their feet and clap their hands. Sometimes, they dance together in the living room.
+
+One day, Mia sees a flyer on the fridge. It says there is a jazz concert in the park. She gets excited and shows it to her dad.
+
+"Dad, can we go to the jazz concert? Please, please, please!" she asks.
+
+Dad looks at the flyer and frowns. He shakes his head.
+
+"Sorry, Mia. We can't go. The concert is at night. It is past your bedtime. You have to sleep early," he says.
+
+Mia feels frustrated. She wants to go to the concert. She likes jazz so much. She thinks it is not fair.
+
+"But dad, I love jazz. I want to hear the music. I want to dance with you. Please, can we go?" she begs.
+
+Dad hugs Mia and kisses her cheek.
+
+"I know, Mia. I love jazz too. And I love dancing with you. But you need to sleep well. You have school tomorrow. Maybe we can go to another concert another day. OK?" he says.
+
+Mia sighs. She knows dad is right. She loves school too. She does not want to be tired and grumpy. She nods and smiles.
+
+"OK, dad. I understand. Maybe we can listen to some jazz at home. And dance a little bit. Before bedtime," she says.
+
+Dad smiles and nods.
+
+"Sure, Mia. That sounds like a good idea. Let's go and find some jazz CDs. And dance a little bit. Before bedtime," he says.
+
+They go to the living room and turn on the stereo. They find a jazz CD and play it. They tap their feet and clap their hands. They dance a little bit. Before bedtime. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing hide and seek in the park. Lily was the seeker and Ben was the hider. Lily counted to ten and then looked for Ben. She checked behind the trees, under the benches, and in the sandbox, but she could not find him.
+
+"Ben, where are you?" she called out. "I give up, you can come out now!"
+
+But there was no answer. Lily felt anxious. She wondered if Ben had gone home or got lost. She ran to the gate of the park, but it was closed with a big lock. She could not get out.
+
+"Help, help!" she shouted. "I can't find Ben and I can't open the gate!"
+
+Just then, she heard a giggle from behind the gate. She looked and saw Ben's face peeking out from a hole in the fence. He had found a secret way to vanish from the park.
+
+"Ben, you scared me!" Lily said. "That was not a fair hiding place!"
+
+"Sorry, Lily," Ben said. "I just wanted to surprise you. Come on, I'll show you how to get out."
+
+He helped Lily crawl through the hole and they ran back to their parents, who were waiting for them.
+
+"Did you have fun, kids?" their mom asked.
+
+"Yes, we did," Lily said. "But Ben was a tricky hider. He made himself vanish with a lock!"
+
+They all laughed and hugged. Lily and Ben were happy to be together again.
+Tom and Anna like to go to the library with Mom. They can find many books with pictures and stories. They can also play with toys and puzzles. Mom says they can borrow some books to take home.
+
+One day, Tom and Anna find a big book about pirates. They want to read it together. They sit on a soft rug and open the book. They see pirates with hats and swords and ships. They pretend to be pirates too. They say "Arrr!" and "Ahoy!" and "Shiver me timbers!"
+
+But then, they hear a loud voice. It is the librarian. She says "Shh! This is a quiet place. You are making too much noise. You have to stop or leave."
+
+Tom and Anna are scared. They do not want to leave. They like the library. They also do not want to stop. They like to be pirates. They look at each other. What can they do?
+
+Tom has an idea. He whispers to Anna. He says "Let's surrender. Let's say we are sorry and we will be quiet. Then we can stay and read the book."
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She nods. She says "OK. Let's surrender. But we can still be pirates in our heads."
+
+Tom and Anna close the book. They stand up and walk to the librarian. They say "We are sorry. We will be quiet. We surrender."
+
+The librarian smiles. She says "Thank you. You are good children. You can stay and read the book. But please, use your inside voices."
+
+Tom and Anna say "Yes, ma'am." They go back to the rug. They open the book again. They read the book with their inside voices. They are still pirates in their heads. They are happy.
+
+Mom comes to pick them up. She says "Did you have fun at the library?"
+
+Tom and Anna say "Yes, Mom. We had fun. We read a book about pirates. We were pirates too. But we surrendered."
+
+Mom says "You surrendered? Why did you surrender?"
+
+Tom and Anna say "Because the librarian said we were too loud. We said we were sorry and we were quiet. Then we could stay and read the book."
+
+Mom says "That was very smart and polite of you. I am proud of you. You are good pirates and good readers."
+
+Tom and Anna smile. They are tired. They hug Mom. They take the book home. They dream of pirates.
+One day, Tom and his mom went to the park. Tom liked to play on the swings and the slide. He saw an old man sitting on a bench. The old man had a cane and a hat. He looked sad.
+
+Tom asked his mom, "Who is he?"
+
+Mom said, "He is Mr. Lee. He lives near us. He is very kind. He likes to feed the birds and the squirrels. But he is lonely. He has no friends."
+
+Tom felt sorry for Mr. Lee. He wanted to make him happy. He ran to him and said, "Hello, Mr. Lee. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Mr. Lee smiled. He said, "Hello, Tom. You are very nice. What do you want to play?"
+
+Tom said, "Let's march around the park. We can pretend we are soldiers. You can use your cane as a sword. I can use this stick. Come on, Mr. Lee. It will be fun."
+
+Mr. Lee agreed. He got up from the bench. He took his cane and his hat. He followed Tom. They marched around the park. They made loud noises. They waved their cane and stick. They laughed and smiled.
+
+The birds and the squirrels watched them. They were curious. They joined them. They flew and ran around them. They made noises too.
+
+Tom and Mr. Lee had a great time. They became friends. They played until it was time to go home. They hugged and said goodbye.
+
+Mom was proud of Tom. She said, "You are very kind, Tom. You made Mr. Lee happy. He is not lonely anymore. He has you as a friend."
+
+Tom was happy too. He said, "I like Mr. Lee. He is very kind too. He played with me. He made me happy. He is my friend."
+Tom and Lily were playing in the backyard. They found a big hammer and a shovel. They wanted to have some fun.
+
+"Let's bury the hammer in the dirt," Tom said. "We can pretend it's a treasure."
+
+"OK," Lily said. "But we have to dig a deep hole."
+
+They took turns digging with the shovel. They made a big pile of dirt. They put the hammer in the hole and covered it with dirt.
+
+"Done!" Tom said. "Now we have a secret treasure."
+
+They ran to the house to get some juice. They left the shovel and the dirt in the backyard.
+
+But they did not see the dog. The dog smelled the dirt and the hammer. He was curious. He went to the backyard. He dug up the hole. He found the hammer. He thought it was a bone. He bit it and licked it. He made it dirty and disgusting.
+
+Tom and Lily came back to the backyard. They saw the dog and the hammer. They were shocked and angry.
+
+"Bad dog!" Tom shouted. "You ruined our treasure!"
+
+He tried to take the hammer from the dog. But the dog growled and snapped. He bit Tom's hand. Tom cried out in pain.
+
+Lily ran to help Tom. But the dog was too strong. He pulled the hammer away from Tom. He ran away with the hammer.
+
+Tom and Lily were left with a bleeding hand and a messy backyard. They had no treasure and no fun. They had a bad day.
+Lily and Tom were playing outside with their kites. They liked to make them fly high in the sky and watch the colors. They did not see the dark clouds coming.
+
+"Look, Lily, your kite is so fast!" Tom said.
+
+"Thank you, Tom, your kite is so pretty!" Lily said.
+
+They heard a loud noise and felt the wind blow hard. They saw a big, scary thing spinning in the air. It was a tornado. It was coming closer to them.
+
+"Run, Lily, run!" Tom said. "We have to go inside!"
+
+They ran to their house and knocked on the door. Their mom opened it and hugged them.
+
+"Are you okay, my loves?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, mom, we are okay," Lily said.
+
+"What is that thing, mom?" Tom asked.
+
+"That is a tornado, Tom. It is very dangerous. It can break things and hurt people. We have to stay inside until it goes away," mom said.
+
+They went to the basement and waited. They heard the tornado roar and shake the house. They were scared, but they held each other's hands.
+
+After a while, the noise stopped. Mom said it was safe to go outside. They went to the yard and saw what the tornado had done. It had broken their kites, their toys, and their fence. It had knocked down some trees and power lines. It had made a big mess.
+
+Lily and Tom felt sad. They liked their kites and their toys. They did not like the mess.
+
+"Mom, can we fix our kites and our toys?" Lily asked.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily, but we can't. The tornado has ruined them. We have to throw them away," mom said.
+
+"Can we get new kites and new toys?" Tom asked.
+
+"Maybe, Tom, but not right now. We have to help clean up the mess and make sure everyone is okay. We have to be grateful that we are safe and that we have each other," mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They understood. They helped mom pick up the trash and the branches. They saw their neighbors doing the same. They saw some people smiling and hugging. They saw some people crying and hurting. They felt sorry for them.
+
+They learned that the tornado was very bad, but that it could not take away their love and their kindness. They learned that they had to be careful and listen to their mom. They learned that they had to be gentle and helpful to others. They learned that they had to be thankful for what they had.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big yard with a swing, a slide and a sandbox. One day, their mom told them that a hurricane was coming and they had to stay inside.
+
+"A hurricane?" Anna asked. "What is that?"
+
+"It is a very big and strong wind that can break things and make a lot of noise," mom said. "We have to be safe and listen to the radio."
+
+Anna and Ben did not like to stay inside. They wanted to play outside. They were stubborn and did not mind their mom.
+
+"Let's go outside for a little bit," Ben said. "The wind is not so bad."
+
+"Okay," Anna said. "But we have to be quick and quiet."
+
+They put on their jackets and shoes and sneaked out the back door. They ran to the swing and the slide and the sandbox. They had fun and forgot about the hurricane.
+
+But the wind got stronger and stronger. It blew their hats and scarves away. It made the swing and the slide shake. It threw sand in their eyes and ears. They heard a loud roar and saw a big tree fall down.
+
+"Anna, Ben, come inside!" mom shouted. "The hurricane is here!"
+
+Anna and Ben were scared. They ran to the back door, but it was locked. They knocked and cried, but mom did not hear them. The wind pushed them and pulled them. They held each other and wished they had minded their mom.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a shiny penny on the ground. They both want the penny.
+
+"I saw it first!" Tom says. He runs to get the penny.
+
+"No, I saw it first!" Sue says. She runs to get the penny too.
+
+They rush to the penny. They do not look where they are going. They do not see the big dog. The big dog is angry. He does not like kids who run in his park. He barks loud. He bites Tom and Sue.
+
+Tom and Sue cry. They are hurt. They drop the penny. The big dog takes the penny. He runs away.
+
+Tom and Sue are sad. They are sorry. They wish they did not fight over the penny. They wish they were nice to each other. They learn a lesson. They learn that being greedy is bad. They learn that being friends is good.
+Lily and Tom are playing in the park. They see a big pile of leaves. They want to jump in it. They run to the pile and gather some leaves in their arms. They throw the leaves in the air and laugh.
+
+But then they hear a strange sound. It comes from the pile of leaves. It sounds like a growl. They stop and look at each other. They are scared. What is in the pile of leaves?
+
+They move closer and peek. They see a furry face with two big ears. It is a dog. But not their dog. It is an unknown dog. They do not know its name or where it comes from. They do not know if it is friendly or angry.
+
+The dog sees them and wags its tail. It barks and licks its nose. It looks happy. It wants to play. Lily and Tom smile. They are not scared anymore. They like the dog.
+
+They say hello to the dog and pet its ears. They ask it its name and where it lives. The dog does not answer. It only barks and wags its tail. It does not care. It is having fun.
+
+Lily and Tom decide to call the dog Spot. They play with Spot in the pile of leaves. They throw the leaves, run, and jump. They have a lot of fun. They make a new friend.
+Ben and Lily were playing in their room. They liked to dress up with their mom's clothes and hats. They found a big red coat and a blue scarf in the closet. They put them on and pretended to be spies.
+
+"Shh, we have to be quiet," Ben whispered. "We are looking for the bad guy."
+
+"Where is he?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe he is hiding under the bed," Ben said. He crawled to the bed and lifted the blanket. He saw a hanger with a shirt on it. He thought it was the bad guy's arm. He grabbed it and pulled.
+
+"Got him!" he shouted.
+
+But the hanger was attached to a string. The string was attached to a lamp. The lamp fell down and broke. The noise was very loud.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily said. "We broke the lamp!"
+
+Ben and Lily were worried. They knew their mom would be angry. They wondered what to do.
+
+"Maybe we can fix it," Ben said. He tried to put the pieces together, but they did not fit.
+
+"Maybe we can hide it," Lily said. She tried to cover it with a pillow, but it did not work.
+
+"Maybe we can run away," Ben said. He looked for the door, but it was locked.
+
+"Maybe we can say sorry," Lily said. She heard their mom's footsteps in the hall.
+
+"Maybe you can," their mom said. She opened the door and saw the mess. She was not happy.
+
+"Ben, Lily, what did you do?" she asked.
+Ben wanted to draw a big house with his pencil. He had a paper and some colors. He started with the roof. He made a triangle with red. Then he made a square with brown for the wall. He was happy with his house.
+
+But he needed a door and some windows. He tried to make a rectangle with blue for the door. But his hand was shaky. He could not make a straight line. His door looked crooked. He felt frustrated. He tried again. But his hand was still shaky. He made a mess on his paper. He felt more frustrated. He threw his pencil on the floor.
+
+"Ben, what are you doing?" his mom asked. She came to see his drawing. She saw the paper and the pencil. She saw Ben's face. He looked angry and sad.
+
+"I can't draw a door!" Ben said. He trembled with his voice. He wanted to cry.
+
+"Hey, it's okay," his mom said. She hugged him. She picked up his pencil. She gave it back to him. "Drawing is hard sometimes. But you can do it. You just need to practice. And have fun. Look, you made a beautiful roof and a wall. I like your house."
+
+"Really?" Ben asked. He looked at his paper. He saw his roof and his wall. He felt a little better.
+
+"Really," his mom said. She smiled. She helped him make a door and some windows. She showed him how to hold his pencil. She praised him for his effort. Ben smiled too. He felt proud of his drawing. He thanked his mom. He finished his house. He had fun.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the snow. They make a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They give him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. They are very happy.
+
+"Look, our snowman is so high!" Lily says. "He can see the whole park!"
+
+"Yes, he is very high," Ben says. "But he is also very cold. He needs some powder to keep him warm."
+
+"What is powder?" Lily asks.
+
+"Powder is something you put on your face when you are sick," Ben says. "It makes you feel better. I have some in my pocket. I will show you."
+
+Ben takes out a small bottle of powder from his pocket. He opens it and sprinkles some on the snowman's face.
+
+"See, now he has powder on his face," Ben says. "He will feel better."
+
+But the powder is not good for the snowman. It makes him sneeze. He sneezes so hard that his hat and scarf fly off. His carrot nose and rocks fall off too. He looks very sad.
+
+"Oh no, what did you do?" Lily says. "You made our snowman sick!"
+
+"I'm sorry, I didn't know," Ben says. "I thought it was good powder. Maybe we can fix him."
+
+They try to put the hat and scarf back on the snowman. They try to find the carrot and the rocks. But the snow is too soft and the wind is too strong. The snowman falls apart.
+
+They are very sad. They hug each other and cry.
+
+"Maybe we can make another snowman tomorrow," Lily says.
+
+"Maybe," Ben says. "But we will not give him any powder. Powder is bad for snowmen."
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers. Lily saw a big yellow daisy and wanted to pick it. She reached for the stem, but it was too thick and strong. She pulled and pulled, but the daisy did not come out.
+
+"Help me, Ben!" she said. "I want this daisy!"
+
+Ben came over and tried to help. He grabbed the stem with both hands and pulled hard. He made a funny face and grunted. He and Lily both struggled, but the daisy did not budge.
+
+"Wow, this is a tough daisy!" Ben said. "Maybe we should leave it alone. It likes to grow here."
+
+Lily looked sad. She really wanted the daisy. She thought it was pretty and smelled nice. She had an idea.
+
+"Maybe we can share it," she said. "We can look at it and smell it, but not pick it. Then it can stay happy in the ground."
+
+Ben nodded. He thought that was a good idea. He and Lily sat down next to the daisy and admired it. They took turns touching the petals and sniffing the scent. They smiled and giggled.
+
+"Hey, look!" Ben said. "There's a ladybug on the daisy!"
+
+Lily saw the red and black bug. She liked ladybugs. She reached out her finger and let the bug crawl on it. She brought it close to her face and said hello.
+
+"Hello, ladybug!" she said. "Do you like the daisy too?"
+
+The ladybug did not answer, but it tickled Lily's finger. Lily laughed and showed Ben. Ben laughed too. He thought the ladybug was cute.
+
+They played with the ladybug for a while, then let it go back to the daisy. They thanked the daisy for letting them share it. They decided to make it their special flower. They gave it a name: Daisy.
+
+They ran back to their mom, who was watching them from the porch. She had made them some sandwiches and juice. They were hungry and thirsty. They told their mom about Daisy and the ladybug. Their mom smiled and hugged them.
+
+"That sounds like a wonderful adventure," she said. "You two are very kind and gentle with nature. I'm proud of you."
+
+She gave them their sandwiches and juice. They ate and drank. They thought the sandwiches and juice were yummy. They were happy. They loved their mom, and they loved Daisy.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and balls. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big tree with a rope. The rope has a knot at the end. It looks like a swing.
+
+"Can we try the swing?" Tim asks his mom.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. It is very high," his mom says.
+
+Tim and Sam take turns on the swing. They push each other and laugh. They feel like they are flying. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But then, something bad happens. Sam pushes Tim too hard. Tim loses his grip on the rope. He falls to the ground. He hurts his knee. He starts to weep.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tim cries.
+
+Sam runs to him. He feels sorry. He did not mean to hurt Tim.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tim. Are you okay?" Sam says.
+
+Tim's mom comes to him. She picks him up and hugs him. She looks at his knee. It has a small cut and some dirt.
+
+"It's okay, Tim. It's just a scratch. You are very brave. Let me clean it and put a band-aid on it," she says.
+
+She takes out a wet wipe and a band-aid from her bag. She gently wipes Tim's knee and covers it with the band-aid. She kisses him on the cheek.
+
+"There, all done. You are fine now," she says.
+
+Tim stops weeping. He feels better. He smiles at his mom and Sam.
+
+"Thank you, mom. Thank you, Sam. You are good friends," he says.
+
+They hug each other. They are happy again. They go back to play with their cars and balls. They forget about the swing. They have a good day.
+Lila and Ben love to play in the pool. They have many toys and gear to splash with. They have balls, rings, floats and goggles. They like to throw the balls, dive for the rings, ride on the floats and see under the water.
+
+One day, they see a new gear in the pool. It is big and green and has spikes. It looks like a dragon. Lila and Ben are curious and scared. They wonder who put it there and what it does. They swim closer to see.
+
+The dragon gear is unusual. It has a button on its head. When Lila and Ben press it, it makes a loud roar and sprays water from its mouth. Lila and Ben are surprised and laugh. They like the dragon gear. They take turns pressing the button and splashing each other. They have fun with the unusual gear. They call it Spike.
+One day, a clumsy lion was walking in the forest. He tripped over a root and fell on his face. He hurt his nose and it started to bleed. He felt very sad and scared.
+
+He saw a bird on a branch and said, "Hello, bird. Can you help me? I need a bandage for my nose."
+
+The bird looked at the lion and said, "No, I can't help you. You are a lion and you might eat me. Go away!"
+
+The lion felt more sad and scared. He walked on and saw a monkey on a vine. He said, "Hello, monkey. Can you help me? I need a bandage for my nose."
+
+The monkey looked at the lion and said, "No, I can't help you. You are a lion and you might scratch me. Go away!"
+
+The lion felt even more sad and scared. He walked on and saw a rabbit in a hole. He said, "Hello, rabbit. Can you help me? I need a bandage for my nose."
+
+The rabbit looked at the lion and said, "Yes, I can help you. You are a lion and you might roar, but you are also clumsy and you need a friend. Come here!"
+
+The rabbit came out of the hole and gave the lion a leaf. He wrapped the leaf around the lion's nose and made a bandage. He said, "There, now you feel better. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+The lion smiled and said, "Yes, I want to play with you. Thank you, rabbit. You are very kind and brave. You are my friend."
+
+The lion and the rabbit played together in the forest. They had fun and forgot about the lion's nose. They were happy.
+Tom and Sue were twins. They liked to play with cars and dolls. One day, Mom said they could go to the park. They were very glad.
+
+"Put on your coats and shoes," Mom said. "And don't forget to buckle your seat belts."
+
+Tom and Sue ran to the car. They put on their coats and shoes. They climbed into the car. Tom buckled his seat belt. Sue tried to buckle hers, but it was stuck.
+
+"Mom, help me!" Sue said. "My buckle is stuck."
+
+Mom came to help Sue. She pulled and pushed the buckle. It did not move.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sue," Mom said. "This buckle is broken. We have to order a new one. You can't go to the park today."
+
+Sue was very sad. She cried and cried. Tom felt sorry for Sue. He had an idea.
+
+"Mom, can I stay with Sue?" Tom said. "We can play with cars and dolls at home. We can go to the park another day."
+
+Mom smiled. She was proud of Tom. She hugged him and Sue.
+
+"Thank you, Tom," Mom said. "That is very kind of you. You are a good brother. You can stay with Sue. I will order a new buckle right away."
+
+Tom and Sue were glad. They went back to the house. They played with cars and dolls. They had fun. They forgot about the park. They were happy.
+Anna and Ben like to play soccer in the park. They have a ball and two goals. They take turns to kick the ball and try to score. Sometimes they miss, sometimes they hit the goal.
+
+One day, a furry dog comes to the park. He sees the ball and runs after it. He catches the ball in his mouth and runs away. Anna and Ben chase him, but he is too fast.
+
+"Hey, give us our ball back!" Anna shouts.
+
+"Bad dog, drop it!" Ben yells.
+
+The dog does not listen. He thinks the ball is his toy. He runs to a big truck that is parked near the park. He jumps into the truck and drops the ball there. The truck is full of boxes and bags. The dog likes to sniff and dig in them.
+
+The truck driver does not see the dog or the ball. He gets into the truck and starts the engine. He is ready to go. He wants to load more things at another place.
+
+Anna and Ben see the truck moving. They run to the truck and wave their hands.
+
+"Stop, stop, our ball is in your truck!" Anna cries.
+
+"Please, mister, can we have our ball back?" Ben begs.
+
+The truck driver hears them and stops the truck. He gets out and sees the dog and the ball in the back. He is surprised and angry.
+
+"What are you doing here, you naughty dog? And what is this ball doing in my truck?" he asks.
+
+He picks up the ball and gives it to Anna and Ben. He scolds the dog and tells him to get out of the truck. The dog looks sad and sorry. He wags his tail and licks the children's faces.
+
+"Thank you, mister, for our ball," Anna says.
+
+"Sorry, mister, for the trouble," Ben says.
+
+They take their ball and go back to the park. They play soccer again and have fun. They hope the dog will find a good home and a nice owner. They also hope he will not take their ball again.
+Lily was a curious girl who liked to guess what was inside boxes. She saw a big box in the living room with a bow on it. She thought it was a present for her. She wanted to peek inside and see what it was.
+
+She went to the box and lifted the lid. She saw something furry and brown. She guessed it was a teddy bear. She reached her hand to touch it. But then, the furry thing moved and made a loud noise. "Woof!"
+
+Lily was in shock. She jumped back and screamed. The furry thing was not a teddy bear. It was a dog. A big dog. It came out of the box and wagged its tail. It licked Lily's face.
+
+Lily's mom and dad came running. They saw Lily and the dog. They smiled. "Surprise, Lily!" they said. "This is your new friend. His name is Max. We got him for you. Do you like him?"
+
+Lily was still scared. She did not like the dog. She did not want a dog. She wanted a teddy bear. She cried. "No, no, no! I don't like him! He is too big and loud and wet! I want a teddy bear!"
+
+Lily's mom and dad were sad. They thought Lily would love the dog. They did not know she wanted a teddy bear. They hugged Lily and tried to calm her down. They said they were sorry. They said they would get her a teddy bear too. They said they hoped she would give Max a chance. They said he was a good dog and he would be her best friend.
+
+Lily stopped crying. She looked at Max. He looked at her. He wagged his tail. He looked friendly. He looked cute. Maybe he was not so bad. Maybe she could like him. Maybe she could be his friend. She reached her hand to pet him. He licked her hand. She smiled. She guessed he was a nice dog. She guessed she could have both a dog and a teddy bear. She guessed she was lucky.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to dig in the sand with their shovels and buckets. They made holes and mounds and castles. They had fun.
+
+One day, they found something shiny in the sand. It was a metal ring with a button on it. Lily picked it up and showed it to Tom.
+
+"Look, what is this?" she asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a toy. Can I see?" Tom said.
+
+He took the ring from Lily and pressed the button. Suddenly, the ground opened up and they fell down a big hole. They screamed.
+
+They landed on a soft cushion. They were underground. It was dark and cold. They saw a door with a sign that said "Do not enter".
+
+They felt scared and troubled. They wanted to go back to the park. They hugged each other and cried.
+
+"Help! Help!" they shouted.
+
+No one heard them. They were alone. They wished they never found the ring. They wished they never pressed the button. They wished they listened to the sign. They wished they were home.
+Tim and Jen are twins. They like to play and laugh. But they do not like night. Night is dark and cold. Night has scary sounds and shadows.
+
+One night, Tim and Jen hear a loud noise. They jump out of bed and run to the door. They want to go to mom and dad. But the door is locked. They do not know why. They bang on the door and cry. But no one comes.
+
+They see a big shape in the window. It has red eyes and sharp teeth. It growls and scratches. Tim and Jen are very scared. They hug each other and hide under the bed. They hope the shape will go away.
+
+But the shape does not go away. It breaks the window and comes in. It smells Tim and Jen under the bed. It grabs them with its claws and bites them with its teeth. Tim and Jen scream and bleed. They are very weak. They cannot fight. They cannot run. They cannot live.
+
+The shape eats Tim and Jen. It is full and happy. It leaves the room and locks the door. It goes to find mom and dad. Night is dark and cold. Night has scary sounds and shadows. Night has no more Tim and Jen.
+Sam and Tom were brothers who liked to play outside. They had many toys, like balls, bikes, and cars. But they always wanted more. They did not like to share or say thank you.
+
+One day, they saw a big truck on the road. The truck had many boxes. Sam and Tom wondered what was inside. They ran to the truck and tried to open the boxes. They did not care that the truck was not theirs.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" a voice shouted. It was the driver of the truck. He was angry. He had to deliver the boxes to other people. He did not like that Sam and Tom were messing with his truck.
+
+"Go away, this is boring!" Sam said. He did not listen to the driver. He wanted to see what was in the boxes.
+
+"Me too, this is boring!" Tom said. He followed Sam. He did not listen to the driver either.
+
+The driver was very angry. He got into his truck and started the engine. He did not see that Sam and Tom were still on the back of his truck. He drove away very fast.
+
+Sam and Tom were scared. They did not know where they were going. They did not know how to get off the truck. They wished they had listened to the driver. They wished they had played with their own toys.
+
+They had to remain on the truck for a long time. They saw many places, but they did not enjoy them. They were too scared and sad. They missed their home and their toys. They learned that being greedy and rude was not fun. They learned that being happy and kind was better.
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: Be happy and kind with what you have, and do not take what is not yours.
+Bee and Bear were friends. They liked to play in the forest. One day, they saw a big hive on a tree. Bee said, "That is my home. There are many bees inside. They make honey. Do you want some?"
+
+Bear said, "Yes, please. I love honey. It is sweet and sticky. Can I have some?"
+
+Bee said, "OK, but be careful. Do not scare the bees. They do not like strangers. They will sting you if you make them angry."
+
+Bear said, "I will be careful. I will not scare the bees. I will be quiet and gentle."
+
+Bee flew to the hive and brought back some honey for Bear. Bear licked his paw and smiled. He said, "Thank you, Bee. This is very good. Can I have some more?"
+
+Bee said, "Sure, but not too much. The bees need some honey too. They work hard to make it."
+
+Bear said, "OK, just a little more. I am very hungry."
+
+Bee flew to the hive again and brought back some more honey for Bear. Bear licked his paw and smiled. He said, "Thank you, Bee. You are very kind. Can I have some more?"
+
+Bee said, "No, Bear. That is enough. You have had enough honey. The bees will get mad if you take more. They will come out and sting you. You do not want that."
+
+Bear said, "But I want more. I am still hungry. Just one more. Please, Bee."
+
+Bee said, "No, Bear. Stop. You are being greedy. You are being persistent. You are not listening to me. You are scaring the bees. Look, they are coming out. They are buzzing. They are angry. Run, Bear. Run!"
+
+Bear looked up and saw many bees flying out of the hive. They were chasing him. They were stinging him. He felt pain. He felt sorry. He ran away. He said, "Ow, ow, ow. I am sorry, Bee. I am sorry, bees. I was wrong. I was bad. I will not do it again. Please, stop. Please, forgive me."
+
+Bee felt sad. He felt sorry for Bear. He said, "Bees, stop. He is my friend. He made a mistake. He learned his lesson. He will not do it again. Please, forgive him."
+
+The bees listened to Bee. They stopped chasing Bear. They stopped stinging him. They flew back to the hive. They said, "OK, Bee. We forgive him. But he must not do it again. He must respect us. He must share with us. He must be nice to us."
+
+Bee said, "Thank you, bees. You are very good. You are very wise. He will respect you. He will share with you. He will be nice to you. He is sorry. He is grateful. He is your friend too."
+
+Bee flew to Bear. He said, "Bear, are you OK? Do you need help? Do you need honey?"
+
+Bear said, "Bee, I am OK. I do not need help. I do not need honey. I need you. You are my friend. You are very brave. You are very smart. You saved me. Thank you, Bee. I am sorry, Bee. I will not do it again. I will respect the bees. I will share with the bees. I will be nice to the bees. I love you, Bee."
+
+Bee said, "I love you too, Bear. You are my friend. You are very strong. You are very funny. You learned from your mistake. You said sorry. You will do better. I am proud of you, Bear."
+
+Bee and Bear hugged. They were happy. They were friends. They played in the forest. They did not scare the bees. They did not take the honey. They shared the forest. They had fun. The end.
+Ben and Mia are playing with blocks in the living room. They are building a big tower with many colors. Ben puts the last block on top and says, "Look, Mia, we did it! It is so high and pretty!"
+
+Mia claps her hands and says, "Yes, Ben, it is! Can we make another one?"
+
+Ben nods and says, "Sure, but we have to be careful. We don't want to knock it down."
+
+They start to look for more blocks, but they don't see the cat, Luna, who is sleeping on the couch. Luna wakes up and sees the tower. She thinks it is a toy for her. She jumps off the couch and runs to the tower. She tries to catch the top block with her paw, but she makes the tower fall down. The blocks go everywhere and make a loud noise.
+
+Ben and Mia are sad and angry. They see Luna running away and say, "Bad cat! You broke our tower! Go away!"
+
+They start to pick up the blocks and put them back in the box. Mom hears the noise and comes to the living room. She sees the mess and says, "What happened here?"
+
+Ben and Mia tell her what Luna did. Mom says, "I'm sorry, kids. Luna didn't know it was your tower. She was just playing. But she should be more careful, too. Next time, we can put the tower on a stand, so Luna can't reach it."
+
+She helps them clean up the blocks and wipe the floor. She says, "You did a good job building the tower. It was very high and pretty. Do you want to try again?"
+
+Ben and Mia smile and say, "Yes, please!"
+
+They hug Mom and say, "Thank you, Mom. We love you."
+
+Mom hugs them back and says, "I love you, too. Now, let's go to the kitchen and have some cookies. But be careful, don't spill the milk!"
+Sam and Mia were playing with their toys in the living room. They had cars, dolls, blocks, and books. They made a lot of noise and a big mess.
+
+"Sam, Mia, time to clean up!" their mom called from the kitchen. "There is a hurricane coming and we need to get ready."
+
+"What is a hurricane, mom?" Sam asked.
+
+"A hurricane is a very big and strong wind that can blow things away and break things. It can be scary and dangerous. That's why we need to put away our toys and pack some things in case we have to leave," their mom explained.
+
+"Can we take our toys with us?" Mia asked.
+
+"You can take one toy each, but not more. We need to save space for clothes, food, and water. Hurry up, please. The hurricane will be here soon," their mom said.
+
+Sam and Mia did not like to clean up, but they did not want to lose their toys or be in trouble. They picked up their favorite toy each and put the rest in a big box. They helped their mom pack some bags and put them in the car.
+
+"Good job, Sam and Mia. You are very brave and helpful. Now let's go to grandma's house. She lives far away from the hurricane and she has cookies and games for us," their mom said.
+
+Sam and Mia smiled and hugged their mom. They got in the car and drove away from the messy house and the scary hurricane. They hoped everything would be okay.
+Tom and Anna liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big rocket. The rocket could make sounds and lights, and had a door that opened and closed. Tom and Anna pretended they were going to space with the rocket.
+
+One day, they decided to take the rocket outside. They wanted to see if it could fly in the air. Tom said, "I will carry the rocket. You carry the batteries." Anna nodded and picked up the batteries. They went to the yard and looked for a good spot to launch the rocket.
+
+They found a hill that was not too high and not too low. Tom put the rocket on the ground and opened the door. He said, "Anna, you go inside the rocket. I will push the button and make it fly." Anna smiled and climbed inside the rocket. She closed the door and waited.
+
+Tom put the batteries in the rocket and pushed the button. The rocket made a loud noise and a bright light. It started to move and lift off the ground. Tom was happy and shouted, "Bye, Anna! Have fun in space!"
+
+But the rocket did not fly very far. It went up and then down, very fast. It crashed into a tree and broke into pieces. Anna was hurt and scared. She cried and screamed, "Tom, help me! I want to get out!"
+
+Tom ran to the rocket and tried to open the door. But the door was stuck and he could not open it. He cried and screamed, too. He said, "I'm sorry, Anna! I can't open the door! I can't get you out!"
+
+They both cried and screamed, but no one heard them. They were alone and trapped. They were poor and sad. They wished they never played with the rocket. They wished they stayed inside. They wished they were safe.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play together. One day, they found a big box of old clothes in the attic. They decided to try them on and pretend to be different people.
+
+Lily found a jacket that was blue and shiny. She put it on and said, "Look at me, I am a princess!" Ben found a jacket that was brown and dull. He put it on and said, "Look at me, I am a farmer!"
+
+They looked at each other and laughed. They thought they were very funny.
+
+But then, Lily had an idea. She said, "Let's decorate our jackets and make them more beautiful!" She took some scissors, some glue, and some glitter from the box. She cut some shapes from the other clothes and glued them on her jacket. She sprinkled some glitter on top. She said, "Now my jacket is more original and pretty!"
+
+Ben looked at her jacket and felt sad. He thought his jacket was boring and ugly. He said, "Can I decorate my jacket too?" Lily said, "No, you can't. There is not enough glue and glitter for both of us. And I don't want you to copy me. My jacket is original and yours is not."
+
+Ben felt angry and hurt. He said, "That's not fair! You are not a good friend. You are selfish and mean!" He took off his jacket and threw it on the floor. He ran away and cried.
+
+Lily felt sorry and ashamed. She realized she had been unkind and greedy. She looked at her jacket and saw that it was not original and pretty. It was messy and silly. She wished she had shared with Ben and made their jackets together.
+
+She took off her jacket and ran after Ben. She found him in the garden and said, "Ben, I am sorry. I was wrong. You can decorate your jacket too. And I will help you. We can make our jackets original and pretty together. Will you forgive me and be my friend again?"
+
+Ben looked at her and smiled. He said, "Yes, I forgive you and I will be your friend again. Thank you for saying sorry and for sharing with me. Come on, let's go back to the attic and have fun!"
+
+They hugged and went back to the attic. They decorated their jackets with different colors and patterns. They made their jackets original and pretty together. They learned that sharing is caring and that friendship is more important than clothes.
+Sara was happy. She was going to visit her brother Tom. Tom lived in a big house with a big garden. Sara liked to play with Tom and his toys. She packed her bag with her doll and her book.
+
+She got in the car with Mom and Dad. They drove for a long time. Sara looked out the window and saw the sun go down. The sky became dark. Sara felt a little scared. She hugged her doll.
+
+"Are we there yet?" she asked.
+
+"Soon, sweetie," Mom said. "Don't worry, Tom is waiting for us. He has a surprise for you."
+
+Sara wondered what the surprise was. She hoped it was something nice. She liked surprises.
+
+They arrived at Tom's house. It was very dark. Sara could not see the garden or the toys. She saw a light in the window. She heard a noise.
+
+"BOO!" Tom shouted. He jumped out of the door. He wore a mask and a cape. He looked like a monster.
+
+Sara screamed. She dropped her doll and her book. She ran back to the car. She was very scared.
+
+"Tom, that's not nice!" Mom said. "You scared your sister. Say sorry."
+
+Tom took off his mask and his cape. He looked sorry. He did not mean to scare Sara. He wanted to make her laugh.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara," he said. "It was a joke. I wanted to surprise you. I have a present for you. It's a teddy bear. Do you want to see it?"
+
+Sara stopped crying. She looked at Tom. She saw his face and his smile. She knew he was her brother. She knew he loved her. She felt a little better.
+
+She got out of the car. She picked up her doll and her book. She walked to Tom. She gave him a hug.
+
+"I'm sorry, too," she said. "I was scared. But I'm not scared anymore. Thank you for the present. I like teddy bears."
+
+Tom smiled. He gave her the teddy bear. He took her hand. He led her to the house.
+
+"Come on, Sara," he said. "Let's go inside. It's not dark in there. It's warm and cozy. We can play with our toys and read our books. We can have fun."
+
+Sara nodded. She followed Tom. She held her teddy bear. She felt happy. She was glad to visit her brother.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the garden. They see a big vine on the wall. The vine has many green leaves and purple flowers.
+
+"Look, Ben, a vine!" Anna says. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Can we sit on it?" Ben asks. He likes to climb and swing.
+
+Anna shakes her head. "No, Ben, we can't. The vine is not for sitting. It is for looking. Mommy says it is expensive. She bought it from a shop. She says it is rare and special."
+
+Ben frowns. He does not understand what expensive, rare and special mean. He thinks the vine looks fun and strong. He wants to try it.
+
+He runs to the wall and grabs the vine. He pulls and swings. He laughs.
+
+"Ben, stop!" Anna shouts. "You will break the vine! Mommy will be angry!"
+
+But Ben does not listen. He swings harder and harder. He feels happy and free.
+
+Then, snap! The vine breaks. Ben falls to the ground. He cries.
+
+Anna runs to him. She sees the vine on the floor. She sees the flowers and leaves scattered. She sees the wall with a big hole.
+
+She feels sad and scared. She hugs Ben.
+
+"I'm sorry, Anna," Ben says. "I didn't know."
+
+"It's okay, Ben," Anna says. "But we have to tell Mommy. Maybe she can fix the vine. Maybe she can forgive us."
+
+They hold hands and walk to the house. They hope Mommy will not be too mad. They hope the vine will be okay. They learn a new word: sorry.
+Anna and Ben were friends. They liked to play together in the park. One day, they saw a big march. Many people were walking and singing. They had flags and flowers. Anna and Ben wanted to join the march.
+
+They asked their moms if they could go. Their moms said yes, but they had to be obedient. They had to hold their hands and stay close. Anna and Ben agreed. They were happy to see the march.
+
+They followed the march to a big church. There was a bride and a groom. They were going to marry. Anna and Ben watched them. They saw them kiss and hug. They saw them put rings on their fingers. They saw them smile and wave.
+
+Anna and Ben thought they were pretty and nice. They wanted to be like them. They decided to marry too. They found some flowers and rings. They put them on each other. They kissed and hugged. They smiled and waved.
+
+Their moms saw them and laughed. They thought they were cute and funny. They took pictures of them. They said they were proud of them. They said they were obedient and kind. They said they loved them. Anna and Ben loved them too. They were happy. They had a good day.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big tree with many branches. Lily wanted to climb the tree and see the sky. Tom was scared of heights, but he did not want to be left alone.
+
+"Come on, Tom, let's climb the tree. It will be fun!" Lily said.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. The tree is very high. What if we fall?" Tom said.
+
+"Don't be afraid, Tom. I will help you. Look, there is a branch that is easy to reach. Grab it and pull yourself up." Lily said.
+
+Lily climbed the tree first. She was brave and strong. She reached a branch that was near the top of the tree. She looked around and saw many things. She saw birds and clouds and houses and cars. She saw a shiny thing in the distance. It looked like a wing.
+
+"Tom, Tom, come up here. I see something amazing. It is a wing. Maybe it belongs to a fairy or a dragon." Lily said.
+
+Tom heard Lily's voice. He wanted to see the wing too. He climbed the tree slowly and carefully. He followed Lily's steps. He reached the branch where Lily was. He looked at the wing. It was big and silver and had many patterns on it. It was very beautiful.
+
+"Wow, Lily, you are right. It is a wing. Where did it come from?" Tom said.
+
+"I don't know, Tom. Maybe it is very old. Maybe it is ancient. Maybe it is a secret. Maybe we are the only ones who can see it." Lily said.
+
+They stared at the wing for a long time. They wondered what it was and what it could do. They felt happy and curious and proud. They had climbed the tree and found a wing. They had a special adventure. They were the best friends.
+Lily and Anna are sisters. They like to play in the garden. They have a swing, a slide and a ball. They also have a bell. They ring the bell when they want to go inside.
+
+One day, they are playing with the ball. They throw it to each other. Lily throws it too hard. The ball goes over the fence. Anna runs after it. She wants to get it back.
+
+Lily waits for Anna. She does not see her. She does not hear her. She rings the bell. No one comes. She rings it again. Still no one. She feels frightened. Where is Anna? Where is Mommy?
+
+She hears a voice. It is Anna. She is on the other side of the fence. She says, "Lily, I'm here. I found the ball. But I can't climb the fence. It's too high. Can you help me?"
+
+Lily is happy. She is not frightened anymore. She says, "Don't worry, Anna. I'll help you. I'll get a chair. Then you can stand on it and jump over the fence. Wait for me."
+
+She runs inside. She gets a chair. She brings it to the fence. She puts it on the ground. She helps Anna climb on it. Anna jumps over the fence. She hugs Lily. She says, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister. I'm sorry I lost the ball."
+
+Lily says, "It's okay, Anna. I'm glad you are safe. You are a good sister too. Let's go inside. Mommy will be happy to see us."
+
+They ring the bell. Mommy comes. She smiles. She says, "Hello, girls. Did you have fun in the garden?"
+
+They nod. They say, "Yes, Mommy. We had fun. But we also had a problem. We solved it together. We are good sisters."
+
+Mommy hugs them. She says, "I'm proud of you, girls. You are good sisters. And you are smart and brave. Come on, let's have some cookies and milk."
+Tim and Mia were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big tree with many branches. They wanted to climb the tree and see the sky.
+
+"Look, Tim, there is a branch we can reach!" Mia said. She pointed to a branch that was low and thick. "Let's go up and lay on it!"
+
+"OK, Mia, that sounds fun!" Tim said. He followed Mia to the tree. They grabbed the branch and pulled themselves up. They lay on the branch and looked at the sky. They saw birds and clouds and the sun.
+
+"Wow, the sky is so pretty!" Mia said. "I wish we could fly like the birds!"
+
+"Me too, Mia, me too!" Tim said. He smiled and closed his eyes.
+
+But the branch was not strong. It was old and dry and empty. It could not hold Tim and Mia. It cracked and broke and fell. Tim and Mia fell with the branch. They hit the ground hard. They cried and hurt and bled.
+
+"Help, help!" Mia shouted. "We are hurt! We need help!"
+
+But no one heard them. No one saw them. No one came to help them. They lay on the ground with the broken branch. They were alone and scared and sad. The sky was not pretty anymore. It was dark and cold and empty.
+Lily and Max were bored. They had no toys to play with. They looked around the room and saw a magazine on the table. It had many pictures of animals and colors.
+
+"Let's look at the magazine," Lily said. She picked it up and gave it to Max. They sat on the floor and opened the pages.
+
+"Wow, look at this lion! He is big and yellow and has a long mane," Max said. He pointed at the picture.
+
+"He looks scary. I don't like him," Lily said. She turned the page and saw a picture of a kitten. "This is better. The kitten is small and white and has a pink nose. He is so cute!"
+
+Lily reached out and touched the picture. She wanted to pet the kitten. She squeezed the magazine and made a purring sound.
+
+"Hey, don't squeeze the magazine! You will rip it!" Max said. He tried to take the magazine from Lily.
+
+"No, it's mine! I want to hug the kitten!" Lily said. She held the magazine tight and pulled it away from Max.
+
+They started to fight over the magazine. They pulled and pushed and shouted. The magazine tore in half. They both fell on the floor and looked at the pieces.
+
+They felt sad and sorry. They had ruined the magazine. They had no more pictures to look at.
+
+They looked at each other and said, "I'm sorry."
+
+They hugged and made up. They decided to be playful and pretend that the pieces of the magazine were hats. They put them on their heads and laughed. They had fun again.

+
+Tom thought for a moment. He liked Jill and he did not want to make her sad. He also liked sharing, sometimes. He decided to allow Jill to touch the root.

+But then, the lights went off. It was dark. Anna was scared. She could not see the clown, the balloons, or the cake. She could only hear noises. She cried, "Mommy, where are you?"
+
+The clown heard her cry. He said, "Don't be afraid, little girl. I am here. Hold my hand. I have a flashlight." He turned on the flashlight and shone it on his nose. It was red and bright. Anna saw his nose. She smiled. She said, "Thank you, clown. You are nice."

+
+"Go away, dog! You are bad!" Sara shouted. "You broke our daisies!"
+
+The dog did not listen. He wagged his tail and licked Sara's face. He thought she was playing. Lily got up and ran to the house. She wanted to tell her mom.

+One day, they jog by the sea. Tom sees a big fish in the water. It has a fin on its back and sharp teeth. Tom points and says, "Look, dad, a shark!" His dad stops and looks. He says, "No, Tom, that's not a shark. That's a dolphin. Dolphins are friendly and smart. They like to play and jump."
+
+Tom wants to see the dolphin better. He runs to the edge of the water. He waves and says, "Hi, dolphin!" The dolphin sees Tom and makes a noise. It sounds like a whistle. The dolphin jumps out of the water and splashes Tom. Tom laughs and claps. He says, "Wow, dad, the dolphin is so cool!"
+
+His dad smiles and says, "Yes, Tom, the dolphin is cool. But we should not get too close to the water. There might be sharks around. Sharks are not friendly and smart. They are hungry and mean. They like to bite and eat."
+
+Tom nods and says, "OK, dad, I understand. Let's jog away from the water. But can we come back another day and see the dolphin again?" His dad says, "Sure, Tom, we can come back another day. But now, let's go home and have some lunch. I'm hungry, too. How about some delicious sandwiches?" Tom says, "Yes, dad, I love sandwiches. Let's go home and eat!"
