+Once upon a time, there was a mighty penguin who loved to chew. He chewed on everything he could find - rocks, sticks, and even ice!
+
+One day, he decided to venture far away and explore the world. So he got on his flippers and waddled to the shore.
+
+Once he got there, the penguin saw many delicious things to chew. He found a crunchy walnut and chewed it up. He found a tasty fish and chewed it bit by bit.
+
+Finally, the mighty penguin was full and decided to head home. With a satisfied burp, he waddled back to his icy home. This mighty penguin had a wonderful day chewing on everything he could find!
+Once upon a time, there was a kite floating high above. It was so colorful and beautiful. But one day, the kite noticed an ugly storm coming. It asked for help, but nobody seemed to hear. 
+

+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She was three years old. Whenever she was sad, she looked out of her bedroom window to feel better.
+
+One day, Lily was feeling very lonely. She stared sadly out of the window and saw a nice nurse outside. She was playing with other children and they were laughing.
+
+Lily wanted to join them, but she was too scared. She thought that maybe if she waved, the nurse would notice her.
+
+So Lily waved, but the nurse didn’t even look up. Every time Lily waved a little bit faster, the nurse kept on playing without noticing her.
+
+Lily was very sad and started to cry. The nurse noticed Lily and ran to her window. She said, "I'm sorry Lily. Did you want to come and play with the other children?" 
+
+Lily felt better after that. She smiled at the kind nurse and shook her head. She understood now that sometimes you can't always get what you want, but it's ok because you have people who care about you.

+
+"What's wrong, Amanda?" John asked gently.
+
+"Some unknown people have shown up in town," Amanda explained sadly, "and it's spreading worry everywhere."

+John thought for a long time and then he said, "Maybe I can help find out who the unknown people are. I can ask around and see what I can find out."
+
+Amanda thanked John for his help and John went off to ask around town. After a few days, John didn't find out anything about the unknown people. He couldn't understand why no one knew anything about them. Eventually, John had to give up his search.
+
+The unknown people had spread worry everywhere but they were never caught. John was disappointed, but he knew he had tried his best.

+
+"Be safe, Suzy," her mom said.

+Once upon a time there was a little girl called Lucy. She was 3 years old and loved to go to the pond near her house. One day, her mom told her to stay away from the pond. But Lucy wanted to go and she went anyway.

+
+The bird was so scared that it quickly flew out of the cage and began to fall from the window, twirling and turning all the way down. 
+
+Luckily, a lady happened to be walking down the street and stretching out her hands, she caught the bird safely in her palms. "What are you doing here?" she asked. 
+
+The bird just looked down. 
+
+"Wouldn't you like a tasty treat for being so brave?" the lady said kindly.
+
+The bird nodded and smiled as the lady stroked it's head. 
+
+The lady gave the bird a delicious snack, placed it carefully back into it's cage and closed the window. 
+
+The bird fluttered around excitedly, happy to be home and safe.
+The little girl was so glad. She had a new red coat and she wanted to show it off. She ran to the park and hung her coat on a hook. The wind was blowing and she felt so happy.
+
+She saw some other children and they all wanted to play. She ran to them and they all played tag around the trees. They laughed and had so much fun.
+
+Then the little girl noticed something in the top of the tree. It was a big, round, yellow bird! Its head was sticking up from the branch, and it just stayed there, looking at her.
+
+The little girl was so glad. She pointed at the bird and showed it to the other children. They were all surprised to see it there. They stayed and watched it until it hung its head and flew away.
+Once upon a time there was an old man and a young girl. The girl was very compassionate. She wanted to help the old man who was walking down the street. As she approached him, the old man said, “I am looking for a cobweb. Can you help me?â€
+
+The young girl smiled and said, “Yes, of course! I know exactly where one is.†She then carefully took the old man’s hand and led him down the street.
+
+Soon, they came to a nearby park. The young girl pointed up to a tree and said, “There’s a cobweb!†Sure enough, dangling from a branch was a delicate cobweb. The old man thanked the young girl for her help and went to save the cobweb.
+
+The old man thanked the young girl one last time for her act of compassion. He told her that the cobweb was special and it had to be saved. He said he was very grateful to have her help. The young girl smiled and said, “I’m happy to help!â€
+
+And thus, the old man and the young girl were able to save the cobweb.
+Once upon a time, there was a little hill. It was so small that it could be seen from very far away. On the hill, there lived a deaf bunny. Every day, the bunny would hop around and eat the grass that grew on the hill.
+
+One day, a fox saw the bunny and decided he wanted to eat it. He thought to himself, "I will just hide behind the hill and pounce on the rabbit when he is not expecting it.†So the fox waited.
+
+The bunny heard nothing and kept hopping around. Suddenly, the fox leapt out from behind the hill, but the bunny saw him in time. The bunny hopped as fast as he could and he managed to escape.
+
+The fox was so angry that he took a big stone and threw it at the hill. The hill shook, and then it started to grow bigger. The bigger it grew, the more deaf the bunny became. He eventually became so deaf that he could not even hear himself hopping around the hill.
+
+The bunny was sad and the fox was happy. The end.
+Once upon a time there was a fair girl. One day, she was walking around her garden when she saw a snake. The snake was tied up, so she felt safe.
+
+But suddenly, the snake broke free! It was slithering around the garden, trying to escape. The girl was scared and wasn't sure what to do.
+
+She ran back into her house and quickly tied a rope around a big stick. When she returned, she slowly caught the snake and used the stick to tie it back up.
+
+The girl felt relieved that the snake was tied again, and everyone was safe. She was brave and fair, having used her quick thinking and resourcefulness to save the day.
+Once upon a time, there was a small boy named Tim. Tim was only three years old. 
+
+One day, Tim came up with a very bright idea. He wanted to find a way to win lots of prizes without having to work! 
+
+Tim went to his mom to ask if she could help him find a way to do this. 
+
+His mom was not too sure. She said to him: "Tim, I don't think it's right to get something without trying. It's not really fair, do you understand?"
+
+Tim looked a little guilty and said he understood. 
+
+Just then, his Dad entered the room. He said to Tim: "Son, why don't you try entering a competition? If you reveal the answer correctly, you could win lots of prizes!" 
+
+The boy smiled and nodded in agreement. He was excited to try it out. 
+
+And so Tim entered the competition and tried his best to reveal the answer correctly. After a few weeks, he was told he had won! Tim was so happy and proud of himself. He had found a way to win without having to work hard. 
+
+The lesson Tim learnt from this was that even when things seem impossible, there are always ways to achieve the impossible!
+Molly and her mom were outside looking at a tree. Molly asked her mom,
+"What are we measuring?"
+"We're measuring the tree," Mom said.
+Molly was so excited. She cheered, "Yay!"
+
+They started to measure the tree, and then a mist came. It felt cool and wet. Mom said, "The mist is making it hard to measure. We should go inside."
+
+Molly said, "Can we measure more later?"
+Mom smiled and said, "Yes, we can measure more later. We'll have lots of fun!"
+
+So they went inside, and Molly was happy and cheerful. She knew they'd have lots of fun measuring the tree later.

+Tom and Sue were scared. They did not know what to say. They felt sorry. They realized they made a big mistake. They realized they hurt dad's feelings. They realized they were not reliable.
+
+Dad was disappointed. He said he loved them. But he said he trusted them. He said he expected them to be responsible. He said he wanted them to be reliable. He said reliable people respect other people's things. He said reliable people keep their promises. He said reliable people do not lie or cheat.
+
+He said he could not take them to the park. He said they had to stay home. He said they had to clean up the mess. He said they had to apologize. He said they had to learn their lesson.
+
+Tom and Sue cried. They wished they had listened to Sue. They wished they had not played with dad's suit. They wished they had been reliable. They said they were sorry. They said they would try to be better. They said they loved dad.
+
+Dad hugged them. He said he forgave them. But he said they had to face the consequences. He said they had to work hard. He said they had to earn his trust. He said he hoped they would grow up to be reliable.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be reliable. Respect other people's things. Keep your promises. Do not lie or cheat.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play on the beach. One day, they see a big boat on the ocean. They want to get on the boat and see what is inside.
+
+"Let's go, Ben!" Sara says. "We can swim to the boat and have fun!"
+
+"No, Sara," Ben says. "Mom said we can't go far from the sand. The ocean is deep and dangerous. We will get in trouble."
+
+Sara does not listen to Ben. She is brave and curious. She runs to the water and jumps in. She swims fast to the boat. Ben is scared and sad. He stays on the beach and watches Sara.
+
+Sara reaches the boat and climbs on it. She sees many things on the boat. She sees ropes, nets, boxes, and fish. She also sees a man. The man is angry and mean. He sees Sara and shouts at her.
+
+"Hey, you! What are you doing on my boat? Get off, now! You are a thief and a liar!"
+
+Sara is shocked and scared. She feels guilty for going on the boat. She wants to go back to Ben and say sorry. But she can't. The man grabs her and locks her in a box. He says he will take her away and sell her.
+
+Ben sees the man and the box. He cries and screams. He wants to help Sara, but he can't. He is too far and too small. He hopes someone will come and save Sara. But no one comes. The boat sails away with Sara and the man. Ben is alone and sad. He wishes he had stopped Sara from going on the boat. He wishes he had listened to Mom. He wishes he had a happy ending.

+
+"Let's test the rope!" Ben says. He runs to the rope and grabs it. He swings back and forth, laughing. "This is great!"
+
+Mia watches him and wants to try too. She waits for her turn, but Ben does not stop. He swings faster and faster, and makes loud noises.
+
+"Mia, look at me! I am so flexible! I can bend my legs and touch the rope with my feet!" Ben says.
+
+Mia feels angry. She thinks Ben is not fair. She wants to swing on the rope too. She walks to Ben and says, "Ben, stop! It is my turn now! You have been on the rope for a long time!"
+
+Ben does not listen. He says, "No, Mia, go away! This is my rope! You can play with something else!"
+
+Mia does not like that. She thinks Ben is mean. She pulls the rope hard, and Ben falls to the ground. He cries and says, "Ow, Mia, that hurts! Why did you do that?"
+
+Mia says, "Because you are selfish! You did not share the rope with me! You are a bad friend!"
+
+Ben and Mia are both sad and angry. They do not talk to each other. They sit on opposite sides of the park, and look at the rope. They wish they could play together, but they do not know how to say sorry.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big tree with red and yellow leaves. Lily wanted to climb the tree. She said to Tom, "Let's go up the tree. It looks fun."
+
+Tom was not sure. He said, "The tree is very high. We might fall and hurt ourselves. Maybe we should stay on the ground."
+
+Lily did not listen. She said, "Don't be scared. I can climb very well. You can watch me." She ran to the tree and started to climb. She grabbed the branches and pulled herself up. She felt happy and brave.

+
+Tom looked up and saw Lily. He smiled and said, "Wow, Lily, you're so high! You're amazing! Can you come down now?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Okay, Tom, I'll come down. But first, let me touch this leaf. It's so pretty and shiny." She reached for the leaf, but it was too far. She stretched her arm and leaned forward. She lost her balance and slipped. She screamed and fell.
+
+Tom heard Lily scream and saw her fall. He was scared and shocked. He ran to catch her, but he was too late. Lily landed on the ground with a thud. She cried and cried. She felt pain and fear.
+
+Tom knelt down and hugged Lily. He said, "Lily, Lily, are you okay? I'm so sorry, Lily. I should have stopped you. I should have climbed with you. I'm so sorry, Lily."
+
+Lily looked at Tom and saw his tears. She said, "Tom, Tom, don't cry. I'm okay, Tom. I'm just a little hurt. It's not your fault, Tom. It's my fault. I was too silly and greedy. I'm so sorry, Tom."
+
+Tom and Lily hugged each other and said sorry. They felt sad and sorry. They learned a lesson. They decided to be more careful and listen to each other. They decided to play on the ground and enjoy the simple things. They decided to be happy and thankful.

+Tom and Lily were going to church with their mom and dad. They liked to march on the sidewalk and sing songs. They saw a big church with a tall tower and a cross on top. They wanted to go inside and see the pretty windows and the candles.

+
+The new boy shakes his head. He points to his ears. He makes another sign with his hand.

+
+Mia nods and holds her dad's hand. She says, "Thank you, dad. I like jogging, but I like walking too. Maybe next time I can jog longer."

+Dad hugs Ben and Mia and says, "You are the best kids ever. I love you both. Let's go home and have some breakfast."

+
+She asked her mom, "Mom, can you bring me an eraser, please?" Her mom was busy in the kitchen. She said, "Lily, I can't bring you an eraser right now. I'm making lunch. Why don't you look in your pencil box?"

+Tom and Lily liked to collect rocks. They had many rocks of different colors and shapes in their boxes. They wanted to show their rocks to their friends at school.
+
+One day, they went on a tour with their class. They rode a big bus to a park. The park had many trees and flowers and animals. Tom and Lily were happy to see the park.
+
+But when they got off the bus, they saw a sign. The sign said: "No rocks allowed". Tom and Lily were sad. They could not bring their rocks to the park. They had to leave their rocks on the bus.
+
+"Why can't we bring our rocks?" Tom asked the teacher.
+
+"Because the rocks belong to the earth," the teacher said. "We have to respect the earth and not take anything from it. The park is a special place where we can learn and enjoy, but not collect."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They understood. They still loved their rocks, but they also loved the earth. They decided to have fun on the tour and see what the park had to offer.

+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big slide that looked very fun. They ran to the slide, but there was a long line of other kids waiting to go down.
+
+"Can we go on the slide, please?" Ben asked his mom.
+
+"Sure, but you have to wait your turn and be patient," his mom said.
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and joined the line. They were very excited to slide down the big slide. They watched as the other kids went down, one by one.
+
+But then, they saw a boy who was very rude. He pushed the other kids and cut in front of them. He did not wait his turn. He went on the slide over and over again, and did not let anyone else go.
+
+"That's not fair!" Lily said. "He's being mean!"
+
+"Yeah, he's being mean!" Ben agreed. "We should tell him to stop!"
+
+They decided to discuss with the boy and ask him to share the slide. They walked up to him and said, "Hey, you have to wait your turn like everyone else. You can't push and cut in line. That's not nice!"
+
+The boy looked at them and laughed. He said, "I don't care what you say. I can do whatever I want. This is my slide, and you can't go on it. Go away!"
+
+He pushed Ben and Lily away and ran to the slide again. Ben and Lily were very angry and sad. They did not like the boy at all. They wanted to go on the slide, but they did not want to fight with him.
+
+They looked at their mom, who was watching them. She saw what happened and frowned. She said, "Come on, kids. Let's go. We don't need to play with someone who is so rude and selfish. There are other things we can do in the park."
+
+She took their hands and led them to the exit of the slide area. Ben and Lily followed her, feeling disappointed and hurt. They hoped that the boy would learn to be nicer someday.
+
+But as they were leaving, they heard a loud scream. They turned around and saw that the boy had slid down the slide too fast and hit his head on the ground. He was crying and holding his head. He looked very scared and sorry.
+
+Ben and Lily felt sorry for him, too. They realized that he was just a kid who made a mistake. They wanted to help him and make him feel better. They ran back to him and said, "Are you okay? Do you need help?"
+
+The boy looked at them and said, "I'm sorry. I was wrong. I should have shared the slide. I was being mean. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Ben and Lily smiled and said, "It's okay. We forgive you. We can be friends. Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The boy nodded and said, "Yes, please. Thank you. You are very nice."
+
+They helped him get up and hugged him. They became friends and played together on the slide and other things in the park. They had a lot of fun and learned to share and be kind. Their mom was very proud of them and happy for them. She said, "You did a great job, kids. You handled the situation very well. You were brave and smart and compassionate. I love you very much."
+
+They said, "We love you, too, mom." They hugged her and continued to play. They had a wonderful day in the park.
+Mira and Tom are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a big house with many windows and doors. Mom says it is a museum. A museum is a place where people can see old things and learn history.
+
+"Can we go inside, mom?" Mira asks.
+
+"Sure, but we have to be very careful. The things in the museum are very delicate. That means they can break easily if we touch them or make noise," mom says.
+
+Mira and Tom nod. They hold mom's hand and follow dad inside the museum. They see many things they have never seen before. They see paintings, statues, clothes, tools, and toys from a long time ago. They listen to a lady who tells them stories about the things. They learn history.
+
+Mira likes a painting of a girl with a big hat and a smile. She wants to touch it. She lets go of mom's hand and walks closer to the painting. She reaches out her hand.
+
+"Stop, Mira!" Tom shouts. "You can't touch it! It's delicate!"
+
+Mira jumps and pulls back her hand. She looks at Tom. He looks angry and scared. She feels sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom. I forgot," she says.
+
+"It's okay, Mira. But you have to listen to mom and the lady. They know what is best for the museum and the things," Tom says.
+
+Mira nods. She holds Tom's hand and walks back to mom and dad. They hug her and tell her they are proud of her for being honest and learning from her mistake. They continue to explore the museum and listen to more stories. They have fun and learn history.
+Sara and Tom like to play with their toys. They have a big box of toys in their room. But they cannot open the box by themselves. The box has a lock and they need a key.
+
+One day, they find a key on the floor. It is shiny and small. They think it is the key for the box. They run to the box and try to unlock it. But the key does not fit. It is too big for the lock. They are sad.
+
+They look around for another key. They see a string on the window. It is long and thin. They think it is a key. They pull the string and try to unlock the box. But the string does not work. It is too weak for the lock. It breaks. They are sad.

+They ran to the boy and said hello. The boy said his name was Ben. He asked if they wanted to play with his bike. Tom and Amy nodded. Ben said they could take turns, but they had to raise their hand when they wanted a turn. Tom and Amy agreed.
+
+Tom went first. He rode the bike around the park. He felt happy and fast. He did not want to stop. He did not raise his hand. Amy waited and waited. She felt sad and bored. She wanted a turn. She raised her hand. But Tom did not see her. He kept riding.
+
+Amy got angry. She ran to Tom and pulled him off the bike. She said it was her turn. Tom got angry too. He pushed Amy and said it was his bike. They started to fight. Ben saw them and got upset. He said they were not nice. He said they could not play with his bike anymore. He took his bike and left.
+
+Tom and Amy felt sorry. They had lost a new friend. They had been selfish and rude. They learned a lesson. They said sorry to each other. They hugged and made up.

+
+They wave at the flag. They smile. They are happy.
+Lily wanted to give her mom a secret gift for her birthday. She found a pretty scarf in her closet that she never wore. She thought her mom would like it. She wanted to wrap it and make it a surprise.
+
+She asked her dad for help. He was dependable and good at wrapping. He found some paper and tape and scissors. He showed Lily how to fold the paper and stick the tape. Lily tried to copy him. She did her best.

+Lily and Ben like to collect things. They collect rocks, shells, leaves and flowers. One day, they go to the farm with their mom and dad. They see many animals and plants. They also see a big pile of potatoes.
+
+"Can we collect some potatoes?" Lily asks.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. They are heavy and dirty," mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben each take a basket and start to pick up potatoes. They find big ones, small ones, round ones and funny ones. They fill their baskets with potatoes.
+

+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They run, jump, slide and swing. They have fun.
+
+But the sun is going down. It is evening. Anna and Ben's moms come to the park. They say it is time to go home.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They want to play more. But they listen to their moms. They say goodbye to each other.
+
+Anna and Ben go home with their moms. They have to take a bath. They have to be clean. They wash their hair, their face, their arms and their legs. They use soap and water.
+
+After the bath, Anna and Ben put on their pajamas. They brush their teeth. They hug their moms. They go to bed.
+
+They are tired. They close their eyes. They dream of playing in the park again. They are happy.
+Tim and Anna liked to play in the kitchen. They liked to open the cupboard and look at the pots and pans. Sometimes they made noise with them and pretended to cook.
+
+One day, they saw a big jar of cookies on the top shelf of the cupboard. They wanted to eat some, but they knew they had to ask Mom first. But Mom was busy in the living room. Tim had an idea.
+
+"Let's get a chair and reach the cookies," he said to Anna. "Mom won't see us."
+
+Anna was not sure. She was afraid of getting in trouble. But Tim was her big brother and she trusted him. She helped him push a chair to the cupboard. Tim climbed on the chair and opened the jar. He took two cookies and gave one to Anna.
+
+They ate the cookies quickly and put the jar back. They were very sweet and crunchy. But they also felt something else. They felt guilty. They knew they had done something bad.
+
+They heard Mom coming to the kitchen. They ran to the table and pretended to draw. Mom smiled at them and asked what they were doing.
+
+"Just drawing, Mom," Tim said.
+
+"Can I see?" Mom asked.
+
+She looked at their drawings. They were very nice. But she also noticed something else. She saw crumbs on their faces and hands. She saw the chair by the cupboard. She knew what they had done.
+
+She was not happy. She asked them why they had taken the cookies without asking. They did not answer. They looked down and said sorry.
+
+Mom said they had to learn to be honest and respectful. She said they had to go to their room and think about what they had done. She said they could not have any more cookies today.
+
+Tim and Anna felt very sad. They wished they had not taken the cookies. They wished they had asked Mom first. They learned their lesson. They never did it again.
+Lisa liked to shine. She liked to wear her bathrobe that had stars and glitter on it. She liked to dance and sing in front of the mirror. She liked to show off to her friends and family. She thought she was very impressive.
+
+One day, Lisa went to a party at her friend's house. She wore her bathrobe over her dress. She wanted to shine more than anyone else. She did not care about the other kids. She did not play with them or share with them. She only wanted to dance and sing in front of them.
+
+But the other kids did not like Lisa's behavior. They thought she was rude and selfish. They did not want to watch her or listen to her. They ignored her and played with each other. Lisa felt lonely and sad. She realized that her bathrobe did not make her shine. It only made her look silly.
+
+Lisa learned a lesson that day. She learned that shining is not about wearing shiny things or showing off. Shining is about being kind and friendly and having fun with others. She learned that being impressive is not about how you look or what you do. Being impressive is about how you treat others and how you make them feel. She learned that the best way to shine is to be yourself and to be nice.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to pray. Every night, she would kneel by her bed and talk to God. She would thank Him for her family, her friends, and her toys. She would also ask Him to help her with her problems, like learning to tie her shoes or being nice to her brother.
+
+One night, as she was praying, she heard a strange sound outside her window. It was a loud hoot, like a horn. She was scared and curious, so she got up and looked outside. She saw a big bird with big eyes and a big beak. It was an owl. The owl looked at her and hooted again.
+
+"Who are you?" Lily asked the owl.
+
+"Who, who, who?" the owl answered.
+
+Lily was confused. She did not understand what the owl was saying. She thought maybe the owl was praying too, but in a different way.
+
+"Are you talking to God?" Lily asked the owl.
+
+"Who, who, who?" the owl repeated.
+
+Lily smiled. She decided to pray with the owl. She closed her eyes and said, "Dear God, thank you for the owl. He is very pretty and very smart. Please help him find food and a home. And please help me understand him better. Amen."
+
+Then she opened her eyes and said to the owl, "I prayed for you. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+The owl nodded and hooted softly. He flew to Lily's window and perched on the sill. He looked at her with his big eyes and tilted his head.
+
+Lily was happy. She had a new friend. She hugged the owl and said, "Good night, owl. I love you."
+
+The owl hooted back and said, "Who, who, who?"
+Tom and Lily were playing with a football in the park. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. They were having fun.
+
+But then it started to rain. The rain was very heavy and wet. The ball and the grass and the children were all soaked. Tom and Lily did not like to be soaked. They wanted to go home.
+
+"Let's go home, Lily," Tom said. "We are too wet to play."
+
+"OK, Tom," Lily said. "But what about the ball?"
+
+The ball was lying on the grass. It was too heavy and slippery to pick up. Tom and Lily tried to lift it, but they could not.
+
+"Maybe we can come back later and get it," Tom said.
+
+"Or maybe someone else will take it," Lily said.
+
+They looked at the ball. They felt sad. They liked the ball. It was their favorite ball. It was a little ball, but it was very good for playing.
+
+Then they saw a man walking in the park. He had a big umbrella and a big smile. He saw the ball and the children.
+
+"Hello, children," he said. "Are you OK? You look very soaked."
+
+"We are OK, thank you," Tom said. "But we can't take our ball. It is too wet and heavy."
+
+The man looked at the ball. He liked football. He had played football when he was a child.
+
+"I can help you," he said. "I have a bag. I can put the ball in the bag and carry it for you. Where do you live?"
+
+Tom and Lily told him where they lived. It was not far from the park.
+
+"Thank you, mister," Lily said. "You are very kind."
+
+The man smiled. He put the ball in the bag and held the umbrella over the children. He walked with them to their home. He gave them the ball and the bag.
+
+"Here you are, children," he said. "You can dry the ball and play with it again. Have a nice day."
+
+Tom and Lily thanked him again. They waved goodbye to him. They took the ball and the bag inside. They were happy. They had their ball back. And they had met a nice man.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pile of waste near the swings. It smells sour and bad.
+
+"Yuck!" Lily says. "What is that?"
+
+"I don't know," Ben says. "Maybe someone forgot to throw it away."
+
+They go closer to look at the waste. They see cans, bottles, papers, and food. Some of the food has flies on it.
+
+"Let's go away," Lily says. "This is not good to play with."
+
+But Ben is curious. He picks up a can and shakes it. He hears something inside.
+
+"Look, Lily," he says. "There is juice in this can. Maybe it is still good."
+
+He opens the can and takes a sip. He makes a sour face and spits out the juice.
+
+"Blech!" he says. "This is not juice. This is vinegar. It tastes sour and bad."
+
+Lily laughs. "That's what you get for drinking waste," she says. "Come on, let's go to the slide. That is more fun."
+
+They leave the waste and go to the slide. They slide down and laugh. They have fun in the park. They do not drink waste again.
+Sam liked to throw balls. He had many balls of different colors and sizes. He threw them in the air, on the ground, and at the wall. But his favorite thing was to throw them over the fence.
+
+The fence was tall and brown. It separated Sam's yard from the neighbor's yard. Sam did not know the neighbor. He only saw a big dog sometimes. The dog barked loud and ran fast. Sam was scared of the dog.
+
+One day, Sam found a new ball. It was unique. It was shiny and had many dots. Sam wanted to throw it over the fence. He thought it would be fun to see it fly. He threw it hard and high. But he threw it too hard and too high. The ball went over the fence and over the neighbor's house. Sam did not see where it landed.
+
+Sam was sad. He lost his unique ball. He wanted it back. He ran to the fence and looked over. He saw the big dog. The dog had the ball in its mouth. The dog looked at Sam and wagged its tail. Sam was surprised. The dog was not angry. The dog was happy.
+
+Sam smiled. He made a new friend. He called the dog. The dog came to the fence and dropped the ball. Sam reached over and took the ball. He thanked the dog and petted its head. The dog licked his hand. Sam threw the ball again. The dog caught it and brought it back. They played together for a long time. Sam was happy. He found his unique ball and a unique friend.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play outside with their bikes. They always wear helmets to be safe. One day, they see a big hill near the park. They want to go down the hill with their bikes.
+
+"Let's go, Tom!" Mia says. "It looks fun!"
+
+"I don't know, Mia," Tom says. "It looks scary. What if we fall?"
+
+"Don't be scared, Tom," Mia says. "We have helmets. They will protect our heads. Come on, it will be fun!"
+
+Tom decides to go with Mia. He does not want to be left behind. He follows Mia to the top of the hill. They get ready to go down.
+
+But then, they see a nosy dog. The dog is big and loud. It runs to them and barks. It wants to play with them.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Mia says. "We are busy!"
+
+But the dog does not go away. It jumps on Mia's bike and knocks it over. Mia falls to the ground. Her helmet saves her head, but her knee is hurt. She cries.
+
+"Are you okay, Mia?" Tom asks. He gets off his bike and runs to Mia. He helps her get up.
+
+"I'm okay, Tom," Mia says. "But my knee hurts. And my bike is broken. That was a bad dog!"
+
+Tom hugs Mia. He is sorry for her. He decides to take her home. He leaves his bike with Mia's bike. He hopes the dog will not bother them again.
+
+They walk home together. They hold hands. They are still friends. They decide to play something else tomorrow. Maybe something without a big hill and a nosy dog.
+Lily and Max were playing with pennies on the floor. They liked to spin them and see how long they would go. Lily had a lovely penny that was shiny and new. Max had an old penny that was dull and dirty.
+
+"Can I spin your penny?" Max asked Lily.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily said. "You have your own penny."
+
+"But yours is better!" Max said. He tried to grab Lily's penny, but she held it tight.
+
+"Let go!" Lily shouted. "It's not fair!"
+
+They pulled and tugged on the penny, but neither of them would give up. The penny slipped from their fingers and rolled away under the sofa.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Max cried. They ran to the sofa and looked for the penny, but they could not see it. It was too dark and too far.
+
+They felt sad and sorry. They had lost their penny and their fun. They looked at each other and said, "I'm sorry."
+
+They hugged and made up. They decided to share their pennies and their spins. They found another penny in the jar and took turns to spin it. They laughed and smiled. They had a lovely time.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. They also have a big carpet with many colors and shapes.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily are playing on the carpet. They pretend they are animals. Tom is a lion and Lily is a zebra. They roar and run and jump on the carpet.
+
+"Rawr! I am a big lion and I will catch you, zebra!" Tom says.
+
+"Neigh! I am a fast zebra and I will run away, lion!" Lily says.
+
+They have fun and laugh. But then, they hear a loud noise. It is their mom. She is angry.
+
+"Tom! Lily! What are you doing? You are making too much noise! You are ruining the carpet! Look at this mess!" Mom says.
+
+She points at the carpet. It is dirty and torn. There are stains and holes. Tom and Lily are scared. They did not mean to make the carpet bad. They just wanted to play.
+
+"Sorry, mom. We did not know. We were just playing." Tom says.
+
+"Please, mom. Do not be mad. We love the carpet. It is normal and nice." Lily says.
+
+Mom sighs. She is not happy, but she loves Tom and Lily. She knows they are just kids. She tells them to clean up the carpet and their toys. She also tells them to be more careful and quiet. She says they can play, but not too rough.
+
+"Okay, mom. We will do that. We are sorry." Tom and Lily say.
+
+They hug mom and say they love her. They start to clean up the carpet and their toys. They still want to play, but they will be more normal and nice. They do not want to make mom angry again. They want to make her happy.
+Lily and Ben like to play in the garden. They have a hose that can make water come out. They use the hose to water the flowers and the grass. Sometimes they also spray each other and laugh.
+
+One day, they see a big truck in front of their house. The truck has a sign that says "Supply". A man comes out of the truck and knocks on the door. He talks to Lily and Ben's mom.
+
+"Hello, I'm here to supply you with some new hose. Your old hose is broken and leaks water. I have a new hose that is stronger and longer. Do you want me to replace it for you?"
+
+"Yes, please. Thank you for coming. Lily and Ben, can you help me move the old hose to the trash?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod and follow their mom. They help her carry the old hose to the trash bin. They see the man take out the new hose from the truck. It is shiny and green. He connects it to the faucet and turns it on. The water comes out smoothly and strongly.
+
+"Wow, look at the new hose!" Lily says.
+
+"It's so cool!" Ben says.
+
+They run to the man and ask him if they can try the new hose. The man smiles and says yes. He gives them the nozzle and shows them how to control the water. They can make it soft or hard, wide or narrow.
+
+Lily and Ben take turns to use the new hose. They water the flowers and the grass again. They also spray each other and laugh again. They are very glad with the new hose. They thank the man and their mom for the supply. They have a lot of fun in the garden.
+Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play together. Yesterday, they went to the park with their moms. They saw a big slide, a swing, a sandbox and a seesaw. They were very happy.
+
+"Can we go on the slide?" Ben asked his mom.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. The slide is high and fast," his mom said.
+
+Ben and Lily climbed up the ladder and sat on the slide. They held hands and shouted, "Whee!" as they slid down. They enjoyed the slide very much. They went on it again and again.
+
+Then they saw a boy and a girl on the swing. The boy and the girl were serious. They did not smile or talk. They just swung back and forth.
+
+"Can we swing too?" Lily asked her mom.
+
+"Of course, but wait for your turn. The swing is for sharing," her mom said.
+
+Ben and Lily waited for the boy and the girl to finish. But they did not finish. They kept swinging and swinging. They did not look at Ben and Lily.
+
+"Hey, can we have a turn?" Ben asked the boy.
+
+"No, this is our swing. Go away," the boy said.
+
+"That's not nice. You have to share," Lily said.
+
+"We don't have to. We were here first. This is our park," the girl said.
+
+Ben and Lily felt sad and angry. They did not like the boy and the girl. They wanted to swing too.
+
+"Come on, Ben and Lily. Let's go to the sandbox. Maybe we can make a castle or a cake," their moms said.
+
+Ben and Lily followed their moms to the sandbox. They saw a lot of toys and buckets and shovels. They also saw some other kids who were friendly and fun. They said hello and invited Ben and Lily to play with them.
+
+Ben and Lily smiled and joined them. They enjoyed the sandbox a lot. They made a castle and a cake and a car and a flower. They shared their toys and buckets and shovels. They laughed and talked and had a good time.
+
+They forgot about the boy and the girl on the swing. They did not care about them anymore. They had new friends in the sandbox. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog with black and white spots. The dog is friendly and wags his tail.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Sara says. "What is your name?"
+
+The dog barks and licks Sara's face. She giggles and pets him. Ben is a little scared of the dog. He stays behind Sara.
+
+"Come on, Ben," Sara says. "He is nice. He won't hurt you."
+
+Ben takes a step closer to the dog. The dog sniffs him and wags his tail again. Ben smiles and touches his fur.
+
+"His name is Spot," a voice says. They look up and see a man with a leash. He is the dog's owner. "He likes to meet new friends. Do you want to give him a treat?"
+
+The man takes out a biscuit from his pocket and gives it to Sara. She breaks it in half and gives one piece to Ben. They hold the biscuit in their hands and let Spot eat it.
+
+"Yummy!" Spot says with his eyes. He licks their hands and thanks them.
+
+Sara and Ben laugh and hug Spot. They are happy. They have made a new friend.
+Lily was very happy today. She was going to see her uncle Tom. Uncle Tom was young and fun. He always played with Lily and gave her nice gifts.
+
+Lily and her mom got in the car and drove to uncle Tom's house. Lily looked out the window and saw many things. She saw trees, birds, flowers and houses. She asked her mom about everything she saw.
+
+"Mom, what is that big thing with a hole?" Lily pointed at a tunnel.
+
+"That is a tunnel, Lily. It is a way for cars to go under the ground." Mom explained.
+
+"Why do cars go under the ground?" Lily wondered.
+
+"Sometimes, cars go under the ground to get to another place faster. It is like a shortcut." Mom said.
+
+Lily nodded. She liked shortcuts. She wanted to get to uncle Tom's house faster.
+
+"Mom, are we there yet?" Lily asked.
+
+"Not yet, Lily. But we are almost there. Do you remember what uncle Tom mentioned on the phone?" Mom asked.
+
+Lily thought hard. She remembered uncle Tom's voice on the phone. He sounded happy and excited.
+
+"He mentioned a surprise, Mom. He said he had a surprise for me." Lily said.
+
+"That's right, Lily. He did mention a surprise. Do you have any idea what it could be?" Mom asked.
+
+Lily shook her head. She had no idea what the surprise could be. She hoped it was something good.
+
+"Maybe it is a toy, or a book, or a cake." Lily guessed.
+
+"Maybe, Lily. Maybe. But you will have to wait and see." Mom said.
+
+Lily smiled. She liked surprises. She was very curious to see what uncle Tom had for her. She hoped they would get there soon. She could not wait to see her uncle Tom.
+Sara liked to swing on the big swing in the park. She felt happy when she went up and down in the air. She liked to see the trees and the birds and the sky. But sometimes she felt lonely. She wished she had a friend to swing with.
+
+One day, she saw a boy sitting on a bench. He had a picture in his hand. He looked sad. Sara got off the swing and walked to him. She said, "Hi, I am Sara. What is your name?"
+
+The boy looked up and said, "I am Ben. I am new here. I miss my old home and my friends."
+
+Sara said, "I am sorry. I know how you feel. I was new here too. Do you want to see my picture?" She showed him a picture of her family. "This is my mom and dad and my baby brother. They are nice."
+
+Ben smiled and said, "They look nice. This is my picture." He showed her a picture of his family. "This is my mom and dad and my dog. His name is Spot. He is funny."
+
+Sara said, "He looks funny. I like dogs. Do you want to swing with me? It is fun."
+
+Ben said, "Yes, I want to swing with you. Thank you, Sara. You are nice too."
+
+They went to the big swing and swung together. They laughed and talked and became friends. They did not feel lonely anymore. They felt happy.
+Ben and Lily were twins. They liked to play with their toys and read books. But their favorite thing was ice-cream. They loved ice-cream very much.
+
+One day, their mom said, "I have a surprise for you. We are going to the park. And there is a truck that sells ice-cream there. You can each have one cone if you are good."
+
+Ben and Lily were very happy. They put on their hats and shoes and followed their mom to the park. They saw the truck with a big sign that said "Ice-Cream". They ran to the truck and looked at all the flavors.
+
+"I want chocolate," Ben said.
+
+"I want strawberry," Lily said.
+
+The man in the truck smiled and gave them their cones. They thanked him and licked their ice-cream. It was cold and sweet and yummy.
+
+They sat on a bench and enjoyed their ice-cream. They saw other kids playing and laughing. They waved to them and said hello.
+
+"This is the best day ever," Ben said.
+
+"I agree," Lily said.
+
+They finished their ice-cream and threw away their cones. They hugged their mom and said, "Thank you for the ice-cream. You are the best mom ever."
+
+Their mom hugged them back and said, "You are welcome, my sweeties. I love you very much. Now, let's go play on the swings."
+
+They ran to the swings and had more fun. They were very happy.
+Sara and Ben are at the zoo with Mom and Dad. They see many animals, like lions, monkeys, and giraffes. Sara likes the giraffes best, because they have long necks and spots. Ben likes the monkeys best, because they jump and play.
+
+They come to a big fence with a sign that says "Ostriches". Sara and Ben do not know what ostriches are. They look inside and see some big birds with long legs and feathers. The birds run fast and make loud noises. Sara and Ben are scared of the ostriches. They hide behind Mom and Dad.
+
+Mom and Dad tell Sara and Ben that ostriches are not scary. They are just birds that live in Africa. They say that ostriches can run very fast, but they cannot fly. They say that ostriches sometimes put their heads in the sand, but not because they are afraid. They do it to relax and cool down.
+
+Sara and Ben are curious. They want to see the ostriches relax. They peek over the fence and watch. They see one ostrich put its head in the sand. It looks funny. Sara and Ben giggle. They see another ostrich keep its head up. It looks alert. It watches the other animals and people.
+
+Sara and Ben learn something new. They learn that ostriches are different from other birds. They learn that ostriches can relax and be alert. They are not scared of the ostriches anymore. They think the ostriches are interesting. They say bye to the ostriches and go to see more animals.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play with cars and balls. But they do not like to eat their food. They always leave some food on their plates.
+
+One day, Mom says, "Boys, you have to eat your food. If you do not eat your food, it will rot. And rot is bad. It smells bad and looks bad. And it can make you sick."
+
+Tim and Sam do not listen to Mom. They say, "We do not want to eat our food. We want to play. We are not hungry."
+
+Mom says, "Okay, but you have to eat your food later. Do not leave your plates on the table. Put them in the sink."
+
+Tim and Sam say, "Okay, Mom." But they do not do what Mom says. They leave their plates on the table and go to play.
+
+The next day, Tim and Sam want to play again. They run to the table to get their cars and balls. But they see something on the table. It is their plates. And their food. But their food is not the same. It is rot. It is brown and green and fuzzy. It smells bad and looks bad.
+
+Tim and Sam are scared. They say, "Ew, what is that? That is not our food. That is rot. Rot is bad. It smells bad and looks bad. And it can make us sick."
+
+Mom comes to the table. She sees the rot. She is angry. She says, "Boys, what did you do? You did not eat your food. You did not put your plates in the sink. You left your food on the table. And now it is rot. Rot is bad. It smells bad and looks bad. And it can make you sick. You have to throw it away. And you have to clean the table. And you have to say sorry to Mom."
+
+Tim and Sam are sorry. They say, "Sorry, Mom. We did not listen to you. We did not eat our food. We did not put our plates in the sink. We left our food on the table. And now it is rot. Rot is bad. It smells bad and looks bad. And it can make us sick. We will throw it away. And we will clean the table. And we will listen to you next time."
+
+Mom says, "Thank you, boys. I am glad you are sorry. And I am glad you will listen to me next time. But you still have to eat your food. Food is good. It makes you strong and healthy. And it does not rot. If you eat your food fast, you can play fast. And you can have fun. Do you understand?"
+
+Tim and Sam say, "Yes, Mom. We understand. We will eat our food fast. And we will play fast. And we will have fun. And we will not make rot again."
+
+Mom says, "Good. I love you, boys. Now, let's eat."
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. Today, they have a new game. They have a big bag of grapes. They want to share the grapes with the birds.
+
+They sit on a bench and open the bag. They take out some grapes and put them on the ground. They wait for the birds to come. They see a blue bird, a red bird, and a yellow bird. They are happy.
+
+"Look, Lily, the birds like our grapes!" Ben says.
+
+"Yes, they do, Ben. They are hungry and we are kind. We share our grapes with them." Lily says.
+
+But then, a big black bird comes. It is greedy and mean. It wants all the grapes for itself. It scares away the other birds. It pecks at the grapes and makes a loud noise.
+
+"Hey, stop that! You are not nice! You have to share the grapes with the other birds!" Ben shouts.
+
+But the big black bird does not listen. It keeps pecking at the grapes. Lily and Ben are sad and angry.
+
+"What can we do, Lily? How can we make the big black bird go away?" Ben asks.
+
+Lily thinks for a moment. She has an idea. She takes out a grape from the bag and throws it far away. The big black bird sees the grape and flies after it. It thinks it is a big prize.
+
+"Quick, Ben, let's take the grapes and run!" Lily says.
+
+Lily and Ben grab the bag and run to another bench. They find the blue bird, the red bird, and the yellow bird. They give them some grapes and smile. The birds are happy and grateful. They sing a song for Lily and Ben.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy too. They have a new game. They share their grapes with the kind birds. They do not like the greedy bird. They are good friends. The end.
+Lily was a spoiled cat. She had a big house, a soft bed, and many toys. She liked to get massages from her human, who rubbed her fur and scratched her ears. She did not like to share her things with other cats, or to go outside.
+
+One day, a new cat came to the house. His name was Max, and he was a stray. He was hungry and dirty, and he wanted to find a home. The human felt sorry for him, and gave him some food and water. He also gave him a massage, to make him feel better.
+
+Lily was very angry. She did not want another cat in her house. She did not want to share her food, her water, or her massages. She hissed and scratched at Max, and tried to chase him away. But Max was not afraid. He liked the house, and he liked the human. He wanted to stay.
+
+Lily decided to escape. She waited until the human opened the door, and then she ran outside. She thought she would find a better place, where she could be alone and spoiled. But outside was not fun. It was cold and noisy, and there were many dangers. There were dogs and cars and mean cats, who wanted to fight. Lily was scared and lonely. She missed her house, her bed, and her massages.
+
+She ran back to the door, and meowed loudly. She hoped the human would hear her, and let her in. She hoped Max would not be there, or at least, he would leave her alone. She learned that being spoiled was not good. She wanted to be safe and loved. She wanted to go home.
+Sara likes to perform for her family. She sings and dances and makes funny faces. She wears a hat and a scarf and a dress that is too big for her. Her family claps and cheers for her.
+
+One day, Sara gets a big surprise in the mail. It is a letter from her grandma, who lives far away. Sara loves her grandma very much. She opens the letter and sees a picture of her grandma and a note. The note says: "Dear Sara, I miss you and I love you. You are a very good performer. I am sending you a gift. It will come soon.

+
+Sara is very happy and excited. She shows the letter and the picture to her family. She says: "Look, look, it is from grandma! She says I am a good performer. She is sending me a gift. What do you think it is?"
+
+Her family smiles and hugs her. They say: "We don't know, Sara. Maybe it is a toy, or a book, or a dress. You will have to wait and see. But we are sure it is something very nice, because grandma loves you very much."
+
+Sara says: "I love grandma too. I want to perform for her. I want to sing and dance and make funny faces for her. Can we call her and show her?"
+
+Her family says: "Yes, Sara, we can. Let's go to the phone and call grandma. Maybe she can see you perform on the screen. And maybe she can tell you a clue about your gift."
+
+Sara is very happy. She runs to the phone with her family. She says: "Hello, grandma, hello! I got your letter and your picture. Thank you, thank you! I have a surprise for you too. I want to perform for you. Are you ready?"
+Lily and Ben are playing with blocks. They like to make towers and houses and cars. Lily has a lot of blocks, but Ben has only a few. Ben wants more blocks to make a big tower.
+
+"Can I have some of your blocks, Lily?" Ben asks.
+

+
+"But I don't have any more blocks. You have too many. Please share with me," Ben says.

+
+Mom comes to see what is wrong. She sees Lily and Ben and their blocks. She smiles and hugs them both.
+
+"No, Ben, that is not true. You have something very important. You have a brother. And Lily, you have something very important too. You have a sister. And you both have me. You have a family. And family is more than blocks. Family is love," mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben look at each other. They feel sorry for being mean. They want to be nice. They want to be family.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. You can have some of my blocks. You can make a big tower with me," Lily says.

+Tom and Lily were best friends. They liked to play with their toys, draw pictures and share snacks. But one day, they had a big quarrel. It was about a blue ball that they both wanted.
+
+"It's mine!" Tom shouted. "I saw it first!"
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily yelled. "You have many balls, I have only one!"
+
+They pulled and tugged at the ball, but neither of them would let go. They felt a strong urge to have the ball for themselves. They did not care about their friendship anymore.
+
+Their mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She was frustrated with their behavior. She had told them many times to share and be kind.
+
+"Tom, Lily, stop it right now!" she said. "Why are you fighting over a ball? You have so many toys to play with. And you have each other. Don't you know that friends are more important than things?"
+
+Tom and Lily looked at each other. They felt ashamed and sorry. They realized that their mom was right. They did not want to lose their best friend over a silly ball.
+
+They let go of the ball and hugged each other. They said they were sorry and that they loved each other. They decided to take turns playing with the ball, and to share their other toys too.
+
+Their mom smiled and hugged them both. She was happy that they made up. She gave them a cookie each and told them to enjoy their playtime. She hoped that they would not quarrel again. But she also knew that sometimes, friends have to learn from their mistakes.
+Lily likes to cook with her mom. She helps her mom add things to the pot. She adds salt, pepper, and cheese. She likes cheese a lot. She adds more cheese when her mom is not looking.
+
+She also likes to put things in her pocket. She puts a spoon, a napkin, and a cookie in her pocket. She likes cookies a lot. She puts more cookies in her pocket when her mom is not looking.
+
+She does not like spicy things. She does not like chili, curry, or salsa. She thinks they are too hot and make her mouth hurt. She does not add spicy things to the pot. She takes them out when her mom is not looking.
+
+One day, she makes a mistake. She thinks a red pepper is a cookie. She puts it in her pocket. She does not know it is spicy. She bites it and it makes her mouth hurt. She cries and runs to her mom. Her mom hugs her and gives her some milk. She tells her to be careful and not put spicy things in her pocket. She also tells her to share the cheese and the cookies. Lily says sorry and learns her lesson. She still likes to cook with her mom, but she does not add or take out things when her mom is not looking. She also checks her pocket before she eats anything.
+Tom and Lily are brother and sister. They like to play with their pet dog, Spot. Spot is a big and friendly dog. He likes to run and jump and lick their faces.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily want to take Spot to the park. They ask their mom if they can go. Mom says yes, but they have to be careful. The park has many other dogs and people. Some of them may not like Spot.
+
+Tom and Lily put Spot on a leash and walk to the park. They see a lot of interesting things on the way. They see cars and bikes and birds and flowers. They also see other dogs. Some of them are small and some of them are big. Some of them bark and some of them wag their tails.
+
+When they get to the park, they see a big sign. The sign says: No dogs allowed. Tom and Lily are sad. They do not understand why they cannot bring Spot to the park. They love Spot and Spot loves them. They think Spot would like to play in the grass and chase the ball.
+
+They see a man near the sign. He is wearing a hat and a badge. He looks like he works at the park. They go to him and ask him why they cannot bring Spot to the park. The man says that the park is for people only. He says that dogs can make the park dirty and noisy. He says that dogs can scare or bite the people or the other animals.
+
+Tom and Lily do not agree. They say that Spot is a good dog. He is not dirty or noisy. He does not scare or bite anyone. He is their friend and they want to have fun with him. They ask the man to please allow them to bring Spot to the park.
+
+The man shakes his head. He says that he is sorry, but the rules are the rules. He says that they have to take Spot back home. He says that they can come back to the park without Spot. He says that there are many other things to do in the park, like swing and slide and climb.
+
+Tom and Lily are not happy. They do not want to leave Spot alone. They do not want to play without him. They think that the park is not fun without Spot. They think that the man is not nice. They think that the rules are not fair.
+
+They decide to go back home with Spot. They hug and kiss him and tell him that they love him. They tell him that he is the best dog in the world. They tell him that they will find another place to play with him. A place where dogs are allowed. A place where they can all have fun together.
+Sam liked to sail his boat in the pond. He made the boat from a box and a stick and a cloth. He painted it red and blue and gave it a name. He called it Star. He was very proud of his boat.
+
+One day, he went to the pond with his mom and his dog. He put Star in the water and watched it sail. He held a string to pull it back. He was very happy. His dog barked and wagged his tail.
+
+But then, a big wind came and blew Star away. The string broke and Sam could not catch his boat. He was very sad. He cried and cried. His mom hugged him and said they would find Star. His dog licked his face and tried to cheer him up.
+
+They walked around the pond and looked for Star. They asked other people if they saw a red and blue boat. No one did. Sam felt like giving up. He thought he would never see Star again.
+
+But then, they came to a station. It was where the trains stopped and people got on and off. Sam saw something on the platform. It was Star! Someone had found his boat and put it there. Sam ran to his boat and hugged it. He was very happy. He thanked the person who was helpful and saved his boat. His mom smiled and said they were lucky. His dog barked and wagged his tail.
+
+They went home with Star and had a picnic. Sam told his mom and his dog how much he loved them. He said he would always take care of his boat. He said he learned a lesson. He said he would never let go of his string.
+Tom and Mia were friends who liked to play with marbles. They had many marbles of different colors and sizes. They liked to roll them, sort them, and trade them. One day, they found a big, shiny marble in the park. It was red and yellow and sparkled in the sun. They both wanted it very much.
+
+"Let's share it," Mia said. "We can take turns playing with it."
+
+"No, I want it for myself," Tom said. "I found it first. It's mine."
+
+Mia was sad and angry. She tried to grab the marble from Tom, but he held it tight. They started to fight over the marble. They pulled and pushed and shouted.
+
+A dog saw them fighting and ran over to them. He thought they were playing with a ball. He jumped and snatched the marble from Tom's hand. He ran away with it, wagging his tail.
+
+"Hey, come back!" Tom yelled. "That's my marble!"
+
+Tom and Mia chased the dog, but he was too fast. He ran across the street and into the woods. They lost sight of him and the marble.
+
+Tom and Mia stopped and looked at each other. They felt sorry and silly. They had lost their big, shiny marble because they were greedy and selfish. They had hurt their friendship over a toy.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mia," Tom said. "I should have shared the marble with you. You are my friend and you are more important than a marble."
+
+"I'm sorry, too, Tom," Mia said. "I should have been nice to you. You are my friend and you are more important than a marble."
+
+They hugged and made up. They decided to go back to the park and play with their other marbles. They were happy and healthy again. They learned to be kind and generous with each other. They never fought over a marble again.
+Tommy was a boy who liked to play with his toys. He had a lot of toys, but his favorite was a teddy bear named Stitch. Stitch was soft and brown and had a big smile. Tommy took Stitch everywhere he went.
+
+One day, Tommy and Stitch went to the park with his mom. They played on the swings, the slide and the sandbox. Tommy had a lot of fun, but he did not see the big dog that was running around. The dog saw Stitch and thought he was a real bear. He ran towards Tommy and Stitch and grabbed Stitch with his teeth. He shook Stitch hard and tore his ear.
+
+Tommy was scared and sad. He cried and shouted, "No, no, no! Give me back my Stitch!" His mom heard him and ran to him. She took Stitch from the dog and hugged Tommy. She saw that Stitch's ear was ripped and bleeding. She said, "Oh, no, poor Stitch. He needs a doctor."
+
+She took Tommy and Stitch to the car and drove to the vet. The vet was a nice lady who liked animals. She looked at Stitch and said, "Don't worry, Tommy. I can fix Stitch's ear. He will be fine." She took a needle and a thread and sewed Stitch's ear back. She put a bandage on it and gave Stitch back to Tommy. She said, "There you go, Tommy. Stitch is all better. He is very brave and strong. You should be proud of him."
+
+Tommy smiled and hugged Stitch. He said, "Thank you, vet. You are very kind and good. You helped Stitch when he was helpless. I love Stitch very much. He is my best friend." The vet smiled and said, "You're welcome, Tommy. You are very sweet and caring. You love Stitch very much. He is lucky to have you as his friend."
+
+Tommy learned that day that sometimes bad things happen, but there are always good people who can help. He also learned that he should be careful with his toys and not let them get hurt. He was happy to have Stitch back and he promised to take good care of him. He and Stitch lived happily ever after.

+
+Jill and Ben are scared. They say, "We are sorry, mom. We did not know. We just wanted to play with the yarn. We like black yarn. Please don't be mad."
+
+Mom is still angry, but she sees their sad faces. She says, "I know you like black yarn, but you should not take things that are not yours. You should ask before you use something. And you should respect other people's things. How would you feel if someone took your toys and broke them?"
+
+Jill and Ben think. They say, "We would feel bad. We would feel sad and angry. We don't want to make grandma feel bad. We don't want to make you feel bad. We are sorry, mom. We will not do it again."
+
+Mom says, "Thank you for saying sorry. I forgive you. But you have to help me fix the yarn. And you have to make something nice for grandma with your own yarn. Can you do that?"
+
+Jill and Ben nod. They say, "Yes, mom. We can do that. We love you, mom. We love grandma, too."
+
+Mom hugs them. She says, "I love you, too. Now, let's shake the yarn and untangle it. And then, let's make something beautiful with it."

+Mia was a naughty girl. She did not like to take a bath. She ran away from Mommy when it was time to wash. She hid under the bed and made a mess.
+
+Mommy found Mia and was angry. She said, "Mia, you are a naughty girl. You need to take a bath. You are dirty and smelly. Come with me now."
+
+Mia did not want to go. She cried and kicked. Mommy carried her to the bathroom. She put Mia in the bathtub. Mia did not like the water. It was cold and wet. She trembled and screamed.

+Lily and Ben are playing outside. They like to jump in the puddles and splash each other. The sky is gray and the wind is cold. Lily has a pink jacket and Ben has a blue jacket. They are very wet and muddy.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can pour water from my boot!" Ben says. He takes off his boot and holds it upside down. Water drips from the boot and makes a small puddle on the ground.
+
+"That's funny, Ben!" Lily says. She laughs and claps her hands. She wants to try too. She takes off her shoe and pours water from it. "We are like rain clouds!" she says.

+
+"Can I have your car?" Ben asks Sam.

+
+Ben does not answer. He is scared. He knows he did a bad thing.
+
+The teacher is angry. She takes the car and Ben. She brings them to Sam.

+Tom and Anna were going to the zoo with their mom. They had to take the subway to get there. Tom liked the subway. He liked to see the lights and the people and the doors that opened and closed. He liked to hear the loud sound when the subway moved. He liked to hold on to the pole and pretend he was a superhero.
+
+Anna did not like the subway. She thought it was boring. She did not care about the lights and the people and the doors. She did not like the loud sound when the subway moved. She did not like to hold on to the pole. She wanted to sit on a seat and read her book.
+
+"Mom, can I sit on a seat?" Anna asked.
+
+"No, honey, the subway is full. We have to stand and hold on to the pole. It's not for long. We'll be at the zoo soon." Mom said.
+
+"But I want to sit on a seat. I want to read my book. The subway is boring." Anna said.
+
+"Anna, the subway is not boring. It's fun. Look, there's a dog. And there's a man with a guitar. And there's a lady with a big hat. Can you see them?" Tom said.
+
+"I don't care about the dog and the man and the lady. I want to sit on a seat. I want to read my book." Anna said.
+
+"Anna, please stop complaining. The subway is not boring. It's an adventure. You never know what you'll see next. Maybe you'll see a clown. Or a pirate. Or a dinosaur. Can you imagine that?" Mom said.
+
+"I don't want to imagine that. I want to sit on a seat. I want to read my book." Anna said.
+
+Tom and Mom sighed. They hoped Anna would be happier when they got to the zoo. They hoped Anna would like to see the animals and the plants and the rides. They hoped Anna would not think the zoo was boring too.
+Lily liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna. Anna had a blue dress and long hair. Lily pretended that Anna was a princess who lived in a castle.

+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom. She brought Anna with her. She saw a boy playing with a truck. The boy was Sam. He was her friend from school.
+
+"Hi, Lily!" Sam said. "Do you want to play with me?"
+
+"Hi, Sam!" Lily said. "Yes, I do. Can I see your truck?"
+
+Sam showed her his truck. It was red and shiny. It had big wheels and a horn. Lily liked the truck.
+
+"Can I hold your doll?" Sam asked.
+
+Lily hesitated. She loved Anna. She did not want to share her.
+
+"Please?" Sam said. "I will be careful."
+
+Lily nodded. She gave Anna to Sam. She took the truck. She drove it on the grass. It was fun.
+
+Sam looked at Anna. He liked her dress and hair. He wanted to keep her.
+
+"Can I have your doll?" Sam asked.
+
+Lily shook her head. She wanted Anna back.
+
+"No, you can't," Lily said. "She is mine. She belongs to me."
+
+Sam frowned. He did not want to give Anna back.
+
+"But I like her," Sam said. "She is pretty. She can be my sister."
+
+Lily felt angry. She did not want Anna to be Sam's sister. She wanted Anna to be her princess.
+
+"No, she can't," Lily said. "She is not your sister. She is my doll. Give her back!"
+
+Sam held Anna tighter. He did not want to let go.
+
+"No, I won't," Sam said. "She is my doll. You can have my truck."
+
+Lily felt sad. She did not want the truck. She wanted Anna.
+
+"No, I don't," Lily said. "I want my doll. She is old. She was my grandma's doll. She is special. You can't have her!"
+
+Sam felt surprised. He did not know that Anna was old and special. He looked at her again. He saw that she had a small tear on her dress and a scratch on her face. He felt sorry.
+
+"Really?" Sam said. "She was your grandma's doll?"
+
+Lily nodded. She wiped a tear from her eye.
+
+"Yes," Lily said. "She gave her to me before she went to heaven. She said Anna was her best friend when she was little. She said Anna would be my best friend too."
+
+Sam felt ashamed. He did not want to hurt Lily or Anna. He realized that Anna was not a toy. She was a figure. A figure of love and memory.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Sam said. "I didn't know. Here, you can have her back. She is your best friend. I don't want to take her from you."
+
+Sam gave Anna back to Lily. Lily hugged Anna. She felt happy.
+
+"Thank you, Sam," Lily said. "You are a good friend. Do you want to play with us?"
+
+Sam smiled. He felt happy too.
+
+"Yes, I do," Sam said. "Can we play princess and knight?"
+
+Lily nodded. She liked that game.
+
+"Yes, we can," Lily said. "You can be the knight. And I can be the princess. And Anna can be the queen."
+
+Sam agreed. He took the truck. He pretended it was a horse. He rode it to the castle. Lily and Anna waited for him. They played together. They had fun. They were friends.
+Lily and Max like to jog with Mom in the park. They wear orange shirts and shoes. Mom says orange is a happy color. They jog on the path and see birds, flowers and trees. They say hello to other people who jog or walk.
+
+"Look, Mom, a fountain!" Lily says, pointing to a big stone bowl with water. The water comes out of a faucet on top and makes a splash.
+
+"Can we go see it?" Max asks.
+
+"Sure, but be careful not to get wet," Mom says.
+
+They jog to the fountain and stand near the edge. They see coins and rocks at the bottom. They hear the water make a sound like rain.
+
+"Can I throw a coin?" Lily asks.
+
+"OK, but only one. And make a wish," Mom says. She gives Lily a shiny coin.
+
+Lily closes her eyes and thinks of a wish. She wants a new bike for her birthday. She tosses the coin into the water and watches it sink.
+
+"I wish for a puppy," Max says. He throws a coin too.
+
+They both smile and hug Mom.
+
+"Maybe your wishes will come true," Mom says. "But now we have to jog back home. It's almost lunch time."
+
+They jog away from the fountain, feeling happy and hungry. They hope to see it again soon.
+Tim and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with their toy cars. One day, they found a big box in the garage. Inside the box, there was a real car. It was red and shiny. Tim and Sam wanted to drive the car.
+
+"Let's drive the car, Sam!" Tim said.
+
+"No, Tim. We are too small. Dad said we can't drive the car. It is dangerous." Sam said.
+
+But Tim did not listen. He got in the car and turned the key. The car made a loud noise. Tim was happy. He pushed the pedal and the car moved.
+
+"Tim, stop! You don't know how to drive!" Sam shouted.
+
+But Tim did not stop. He drove the car out of the garage and onto the road. He saw a chicken crossing the road. The chicken was unusual. It had three legs and two heads. Tim thought it was funny. He wanted to catch the chicken.
+
+"Look, Sam! A funny chicken! I want it!" Tim said.
+
+But Sam was scared. He saw a big truck coming from the other side. The truck was fast and loud. Sam tried to warn Tim.
+
+"Tim, watch out! A truck! A truck!" Sam screamed.
+
+But Tim did not watch out. He drove the car towards the chicken. The truck saw the car and tried to stop. But it was too late. The truck hit the car. The car and the truck made a big crash. The chicken ran away.
+
+Tim and Sam were hurt. They cried and cried. Dad heard the noise and ran to the road. He saw the car and the truck. He saw Tim and Sam. He was angry and sad.
+
+"Tim, Sam, what have you done? You are very naughty. You could have died. You broke the car and the truck. You scared the chicken. You are in big trouble." Dad said.
+
+Tim and Sam were sorry. They learned a lesson. They should not drive the car. They should listen to Dad. They should be careful on the road. They should not chase unusual chickens.

+
+Tom wants to wear the hat too. He says, "No, this hat is mine. It is so cool. I will be a pirate with this hat." They both pull the hat and try to take it. The hat is torn and the bow falls off. Lily and Tom are sad and angry. They do not want to play anymore.
+
+Mom sees them and asks, "What happened? Why are you crying?" Lily and Tom tell her about the hat. Mom says, "That is not fair. You should share your toys and be nice to each other. How would you feel if someone took your toy and broke it?" Lily and Tom think about it. They feel sorry and say, "We are sorry, Mom. We were mean and selfish. We did not think about how the other one feels."
+
+Mom says, "That is good. You should say sorry to each other and hug. Then you can fix the hat and play together again." Lily and Tom say sorry and hug. They find some glue and tape and fix the hat and the bow. They take turns wearing the hat and playing different roles. They say, "You look great with the hat. You are a good friend." They are happy and have fun. Mom smiles and says, "That is better. I am proud of you."
+Lily and Ben went to the sea with Mom and Dad. They liked to play in the sand and look at the shells. Lily saw a big orange shell and ran to pick it up. She wanted to show it to Ben.
+
+"Look, Ben, look!" she said. "I found an orange shell. It is so pretty and shiny. Do you want to see?"
+
+Ben looked at the shell and smiled. He liked the color and the shape. He wanted to touch it and hold it.
+
+"Can I have it, Lily?" he asked. "Please, can I have it?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She liked the shell too, but she also liked Ben. He was her brother and her friend. She wanted to make him happy.
+
+"OK, Ben, you can have it," she said. "But you have to choose something for me too. Something from the sea. Something that I will like."
+
+Ben nodded and hugged Lily. He was happy that she gave him the shell. He wanted to choose something for her too. Something from the sea. Something that she would like.
+
+He looked around and saw a small starfish on a rock. It was pink and soft and had five arms. He thought it was cute and special. He ran to get it and brought it to Lily.
+
+"Look, Lily, look!" he said. "I found a starfish for you. It is so pink and soft and has five arms. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily looked at the starfish and gasped. She liked the color and the texture. She wanted to touch it and hold it.
+
+"Can I have it, Ben?" she asked. "Please, can I have it?"
+
+Ben nodded and gave her the starfish. He was happy that he found something for her. He wanted to see her smile.
+
+"OK, Lily, you can have it," he said. "But you have to share it with me sometimes. And I will share the shell with you too. OK?"
+
+Lily nodded and hugged Ben. She was happy that he gave her the starfish. She wanted to share it with him sometimes. And he would share the shell with her too. OK.
+
+They both smiled and thanked each other. They had chosen something from the sea. Something that they liked. Something that they could share. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben are playing hide and seek in the park. Lily is the seeker and Ben is the hider. Lily counts to ten and then says, "Ready or not, here I come!"
+
+She looks around the park for Ben. She sees a big tree, a slide, a swing, and a bench. Where can Ben be? She walks to the tree and peeks behind it. No Ben. She walks to the slide and peeks under it. No Ben. She walks to the swing and peeks over it. No Ben. She walks to the bench and peeks behind it. She sees a gray hat. Is that Ben?
+
+She says, "I found you, Ben!" and pulls the hat. But it is not Ben. It is an old man who is sleeping on the bench. He wakes up and says, "Hey, what are you doing? That's my hat!"
+
+Lily is scared and says, "Sorry, sir. I thought you were my friend Ben. We are playing hide and seek."
+
+The old man says, "Hide and seek? That's a fun game. But I'm not your friend Ben. I'm Mr. Gray. Where is your friend Ben?"
+
+Lily says, "I don't know. He is hiding very well. I can't find him."
+
+Mr. Gray says, "Maybe I can help you. Let me put on my hat and glasses. Maybe I can see better."
+
+He puts on his hat and glasses and looks around the park. He says, "Do you see that big bush over there? The one with the red flowers?"
+
+Lily says, "Yes, I see it."
+
+Mr. Gray says, "Why don't you go and peek behind it? Maybe you will find your friend Ben."
+
+Lily says, "Thank you, Mr. Gray. You are very nice." She runs to the bush and peeks behind it. She sees Ben, who is smiling. She says, "I found you, Ben! You are a good hider. But Mr. Gray helped me. He is very smart."
+
+Ben says, "You are a good seeker, Lily. But Mr. Gray is very kind. He is very old."
+
+They both go to the bench and say, "Thank you, Mr. Gray. You are very cool."
+
+Mr. Gray says, "You are very welcome, Lily and Ben. You are very sweet. Do you want to play with me for a minute? I have some candy in my pocket."
+
+Lily and Ben say, "Yes, please. We love candy. And we love you, Mr. Gray."
+
+They all sit on the bench and eat candy and talk and laugh. They have a lot of fun. They are happy. They are friends.
+Tom and Lily were playing with paper. They liked to fold it into different shapes. Tom made a boat, and Lily made a hat. They were having fun.
+
+Then, they saw a big truck outside. It was shiny and loud. It had steel on it. Steel was hard and strong. Tom and Lily wanted to see it.
+
+They ran outside and crossed the street. They did not look for cars. They did not listen to their mom. They were not careful.
+
+"Tom! Lily! Come back!" their mom shouted. She was scared and angry. She followed them.
+
+But the truck driver saw them. He was dependable. He stopped the truck in time. He did not hit them. He honked his horn.
+
+"Hey, kids! What are you doing?" he asked. He was kind and firm. He got out of the truck.
+
+"We wanted to see your truck. It has steel. It is cool," Tom said.
+
+"Lily nodded. She said, "We like to fold paper. Can you fold steel?"
+
+The truck driver smiled. He said, "No, I cannot fold steel. Steel is too hard to fold. But paper is easy to fold. You can make many things with paper. You are creative."
+
+He showed them his truck. He explained what steel was for. He said, "Steel is good for some things, but not for others. You have to be careful with steel. It can hurt you or others. You have to respect steel."
+
+He also said, "You have to be careful when you cross the street. You have to look for cars. You have to listen to your mom. She loves you and wants you to be safe. You have to respect the rules."
+
+Tom and Lily understood. They said, "We are sorry. We were not careful. We did not respect steel or the rules. We will not do it again."
+
+They hugged their mom. She was relieved and happy. She said, "I am glad you are okay. I am proud of you for learning your lesson. You are good kids."
+
+They thanked the truck driver. He said, "You are welcome. You are smart and brave. You can do many things with paper and with your minds. But remember to be careful and respectful. That is how you grow up to be good people."
+
+They waved goodbye to the truck driver. They went back to their house. They played with paper again. They folded it into different shapes. They made a truck, a mom, and a driver. They were happy.
+Lily loved butterflies. She liked to watch them fly in the garden and land on the flowers. She wanted to catch one and keep it as a pet. She asked her mom for a net, but her mom said no. She said butterflies are not pets, they are free and happy in nature. She said nets are expensive and Lily should save her money for something else.
+
+But Lily did not listen. She took some money from her mom's purse when she was not looking. She went to the store and bought a net. She ran back to the garden and chased the butterflies. She caught a big one with yellow and black wings. She put it in a jar and closed the lid. She was very proud of her butterfly.
+
+But the butterfly was not happy. It could not fly or breathe in the jar. It was scared and sad. It tried to escape, but it could not. It banged its wings on the glass and hurt itself. Lily did not notice. She went inside to show her mom her butterfly.
+
+But her mom was not happy. She saw the net and the jar and the money. She knew Lily had stolen from her. She was very angry and sad. She took the jar from Lily and opened the lid. She let the butterfly go. She said Lily had done a bad thing. She said she had to punish her. She said she had to take away her net and her money and her toys. She said she had to go to her room and think about what she had done.
+
+Lily was not happy. She cried and said she was sorry. She said she loved her mom and the butterfly. She said she would not do it again. She went to her room and felt very bad. She learned a lesson. She learned that stealing is wrong and hurting animals is wrong. She learned that butterflies are not pets, they are free and happy in nature. She learned that nets are expensive and she should save her money for something else. She learned that she should listen to her mom and respect her things. She learned that she should be kind and gentle to all living things.

+
+One day, she decides to design a planet. She thinks planets are very big and round and have many colors. She takes a big paper and draws a circle. She fills it with blue and green and brown. She says, "This is my planet. It has water, land and mountains."
+
+She shows her planet to her brother, Ben. Ben likes to play with rockets and aliens. He says, "Your planet is pretty, but it needs more things. It needs a sun, a moon, some clouds and some stars. And maybe some aliens, too."
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She says, "OK, I can add those things. But you have to help me. You can draw the sun, the moon, the clouds and the stars. And I will draw the aliens. They will be friendly and cute."
+
+Ben agrees. He takes a yellow crayon and draws a big sun on the corner of the paper. He takes a white crayon and draws a small moon on the opposite corner. He draws some fluffy clouds and some shiny stars. Anna takes a purple crayon and draws some aliens. They have big eyes, long ears and curly tails. She says, "These are my aliens. They live on my planet. They like to play and sing and dance."

+
+He picks up the tire and the car and looks at them. He tries to put the tire back on, but it falls off again. He shakes his head.
+
+"Sorry, Lily. I can't fix it. It's broken for good. Do you want to play with my car? We can share."
+
+Lily stops crying and looks at Max. He is holding his car and smiling. His car is blue and shiny and has four good tires. It is very noisy, but Lily likes it.
+
+"Okay, Max. Thank you. You are a good friend. Can I drive your car first?"
+
+"Sure, Lily. You can drive my car first. Then I can drive it next. And then we can drive it together. Come on, let's go!"

+Sara and Ben were hungry. They wanted to eat pizza. But mom and dad were not home. They left a note on the fridge. It said: "We will be back soon. You can order pizza if you want. The number is on the magnet. Do not open the freezer. It is broken."
+
+Sara and Ben looked at the magnet. It had a picture of a pizza and some numbers. Sara picked up the phone and pushed the numbers. A voice said: "Hello, this is Pizza Hut. What do you want to order?"

+
+He said: "Hello, I have your pizza and your chicken wings and your soda. That will be twenty dollars, please."
+
+Sara said: "Here you go." She gave him a twenty dollar bill that mom and dad left on the table.
+
+He said: "Thank you. Enjoy your food. Have a nice day."
+
+He gave Sara the box and the bag and left. Sara closed the door and called Ben. They opened the box and the bag. They saw the pizza and the chicken wings and the soda. They smelled good. They looked yummy. They were hot and cheesy and crispy and fizzy.
+
+Sara and Ben said: "Yay! Pizza time!"
+
+They took some plates and napkins and sat on the couch. They ate the pizza and the chicken wings and drank the soda. They were very happy. They did not open the freezer.

+Lily and Ben are curious. They want to see the baby. They go to the crib and look at Sam. He is sleeping. He has tiny fingers and toes. He has soft hair and a cute nose. Lily and Ben think he is adorable.
+
+Lily says, "I want to show him my doll. She is pretty and has a pink dress." She picks up her doll and holds it close to Sam's face. Sam opens his eyes and starts to cry. He does not like the doll. He is scared.
+
+Mom hears the cry and comes to the crib. She says, "Lily, you are being careless. You cannot show your doll to Sam like that. He is too little and does not understand. You have to be gentle and quiet with him. He needs space and peace."
+
+Lily feels sorry. She says, "I'm sorry, Mom. I'm sorry, Sam. I did not mean to make you cry. I just wanted to share my doll with you. I love you, Sam." She puts her doll away and gives Sam a soft kiss on his cheek. Sam stops crying and smiles.

+
+Ben says, "Yes, Mom. I want to show him my car. It is fast and has a red color." He picks up his car and rolls it on the floor. He says, "Look, Sam. This is my car. It can go vroom vroom. Do you like it?"
+
+Sam watches the car with interest. He does not cry. He makes a sound like vroom vroom. He likes the car. He reaches out his hand and tries to touch it.
+
+Ben says, "Good, Sam. You are smart. You can play with my car. But be careful. It is not a toy for babies. It has small parts that can hurt you. I will show you how to play with it safely."
+
+Ben takes Sam's hand and guides it along the car. He shows him the wheels, the doors, the windows, and the lights. He says, "These are the parts of the car. They are fun to look at and touch. But you cannot put them in your mouth or pull them off. They can make you sick or choke you. You have to be careful with them."
+
+Sam listens and nods. He understands. He is careful with the car. He does not put it in his mouth or pull it off. He plays with it gently and happily.
+
+Mom says, "Well done, Ben. You are being careful. You cannot show your car to Sam like that. He is too little and does not understand. You have to be gentle and quiet with him. He needs space and peace."
+
+Ben feels proud. He says, "Thank you, Mom. Thank you, Sam. I'm happy to share my car with you. I love you, Sam." He gives Sam a soft hug and a high five. Sam giggles and claps.
+
+Mom says, "You are both wonderful. You are good siblings. You are helping me take care of Sam. He is lucky to have you. I love you all." She hugs Lily, Ben, and Sam. They hug her back. They are a happy family.

+
+One day, a man came to their house. He said he wanted to buy some of their trains. He said he would give them money for them. Tom and Lily looked at their trains. They liked them all, but they also wanted money to buy other things.
+
+Tom said, "Let's sell some of our trains. We have too many anyway. We can keep the best ones and get money for the rest." Lily said, "But I love all our trains. They are all useful and fun. I don't want to sell any of them."

+Tom and Lily realized their mom was right. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They told the man they did not want to sell their trains. They said they wanted to keep them and play with them. The man said okay and left. Tom and Lily thanked their mom and went back to their track. They played with their trains and had fun. They learned that some things are more valuable than money.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were lions and roar at each other. They also liked to find shiny things and make jewelry out of them. They had a lot of fun with their game.
+
+One day, they saw a big box under a tree. It was full of shiny things. They ran to the box and opened it. They saw necklaces, rings, bracelets, and earrings. They were so happy. They wanted to try them on and play with them.

+
+Lily and Max were scared. They did not know that the shiny things were not theirs. They thought they were just playing. They started to cry.
+
+"We are sorry, lady. We did not know. We just wanted to play," Lily said.
+
+"We like shiny things. We like to roar like lions," Max said.
+
+The lady saw that they were just children. She felt sorry for them. She decided to be fair and kind.
+
+"Okay, okay. Don't cry. I understand. You can keep one shiny thing each. But you have to give the rest back to me. And you have to say sorry," she said.
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They said sorry to the lady. They gave back most of the shiny things. They each chose one to keep. Lily chose a necklace. Max chose a ring.

+Ben and Lily liked to watch TV after school. They liked to see funny shows with animals and people. Sometimes they laughed so hard that their mom came to see what was going on.
+
+One day, they saw a show about a man who could record sounds with a big machine. He could make the sounds louder or softer, or change them into other sounds. He showed how he could record a dog barking, a car honking, and a bird singing. Then he mixed them all together and made a funny song.
+
+Ben and Lily thought that was amazing. They wanted to try it too. They asked their mom if they could have a machine like that. Their mom said no, those machines were very expensive and hard to use. But she said they could use her phone to record some sounds. She showed them how to press a button and talk or make noises.
+
+Ben and Lily were very happy. They said thank you to their mom. They were grateful that she let them use her phone. They ran around the house and recorded everything they could.

+Lily and Ben were young and liked to play outside. One day, they saw a snake in the grass. It was long and green and had a forked tongue.
+
+"Look, a snake!" Lily said. "Let's go see it!"
+
+"No, Lily, snakes are bad!" Ben said. "They can bite and hurt us. We should stay away!"
+
+But Lily was curious and wanted to touch the snake. She walked closer and reached out her hand. The snake hissed and coiled up.
+
+"Stop, Lily, stop!" Ben shouted. He ran to his sister and pulled her back. He wanted to protect her from the snake.
+
+The snake was angry and tried to strike at them. Ben and Lily screamed and ran away. They ran to their mom, who was sitting on a bench.
+
+"Mom, mom, there was a snake!" Ben said. "It was scary and mean!"
+
+"Are you okay, my loves?" Mom asked. She hugged them and checked them for bites. "You are very brave, Ben, for protecting your sister. And you, Lily, you should listen to your brother. Snakes can be dangerous. You have to be careful when you play outside."
+
+"I'm sorry, mom," Lily said. "I won't go near snakes again."
+
+"I'm sorry, too, mom," Ben said. "I was scared."
+
+Mom kissed them and smiled. "It's okay, my loves. You are safe now. Let's go home and have some cookies. And next time, we can play with something else. How about a ball or a kite?"
+
+"Yes, mom!" Lily and Ben said. They held Mom's hand and walked home. They were happy and forgot about the snake.
+Sara liked to play with her mom's jewelry. She liked the shiny rings and necklaces and bracelets. She liked to put them on and pretend she was a princess. One day, she found a big box of jewelry in her mom's closet. She opened it and saw many different things inside.
+
+Sara wanted to count how many things were in the box. She took out one thing at a time and put it on the floor. She said the numbers out loud as she did. "One, two, three, four, five..." She kept going until she reached twenty. She was very proud of herself. She had counted so many things!
+
+She looked at the floor and saw a lot of jewelry. She wanted to wear them all. She started to put them on her fingers, her ears, her neck, her wrists, and her ankles. She felt very pretty and fancy. But she also felt very heavy. The jewelry was too big and too much for her. She could not move well. She tried to stand up, but she fell down. She felt a little scared and a little silly.
+
+She heard her mom coming. She quickly took off the jewelry and put it back in the box. She hoped her mom would not be mad at her. She ran to her mom and gave her a hug. Her mom smiled and said, "What have you been doing, Sara?" Sara said, "I was playing with your jewelry, mom. I counted them. There were twenty!" Her mom said, "Wow, that's very good, Sara. But you know you should not play with my jewelry without asking me, right?" Sara said, "Yes, mom. I'm sorry. I won't do it again." Her mom said, "It's okay, Sara. I love you. But next time, let's play with something else, okay?" Sara said, "Okay, mom. I love you too." They hugged and went to the kitchen for a snack. Sara was happy. She had learned to count and to say sorry.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They saw a big tree with red leaves. They ran to the tree and looked for bugs and birds.
+
+"Look, Sara, a bird!" Ben said. He pointed to a small brown bird on a branch. The bird was not moving or singing.
+
+"Is the bird sleeping?" Sara asked. She wanted to touch the bird and make it fly.
+
+"No, Sara, the bird is dead," Ben said. He remembered what his mom told him. "Dead means the bird is not alive. It cannot fly or sing or eat. It is very sad."
+
+Sara felt sad too. She liked birds. She wondered why the bird was dead. "Did the bird get sick? Did a cat catch it? Did it fall from the sky?" she asked.
+
+"I don't know, Sara," Ben said. "Maybe the bird was old. Maybe the bird was cold. Maybe the bird was lonely."
+
+They looked at the bird for a long time. They saw the sun shining on its feathers. They heard the wind blowing in the leaves. They felt the grass under their feet.
+
+"Can we say goodbye to the bird?" Sara asked.
+
+"Yes, Sara, we can say goodbye," Ben said. He took Sara's hand and they walked to the bird. They said, "Goodbye, bird. We are sorry you are dead. We hope you are happy in the sky. We will remember you."
+
+They left the bird on the branch and went back to play. They still felt sad, but they also felt glad. They had each other. They had the sun. They had the park. They had life.
+Lily was playing with her dolls in her room. She liked to pretend they were her friends and have tea parties with them. She had a pink teapot and some cups and saucers. She poured some water from the teapot and said, "Would you like some tea, Anna? It is very yummy."
+
+She heard a knock on the door. It was her daddy. He smiled and said, "Hello, Lily. What are you doing?"
+
+"I am having a tea party with my dolls, Daddy. Do you want to join us?" Lily said.
+
+"Sure, I would love to join you. Thank you for inviting me," Daddy said. He sat down on the floor next to Lily and picked up a cup.
+
+Lily poured some water for him and said, "Here you go, Daddy. This is your tea. Be careful, it is hot."
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are very kind," Daddy said. He pretended to sip the tea and said, "Mmm, this is delicious. You are a great hostess."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "You are welcome, Daddy. I am glad you like it. Do you want some cookies too?"
+
+She offered him a plate of cookies that she had made from play-doh. They were different shapes and colors.
+
+"Wow, these look amazing. What kind of cookies are they?" Daddy asked.
+
+Lily pointed to each cookie and said, "This is a star cookie, this is a heart cookie, this is a flower cookie, and this is a moon cookie. They are all very sweet and crunchy."
+
+Daddy took a moon cookie and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are very creative. I like moon cookies. They remind me of the night sky."
+
+He pretended to bite the cookie and said, "Crunch, crunch, crunch. This is the best cookie ever."
+
+Lily giggled and said, "I am happy you like it, Daddy. You are the best daddy ever."
+
+They hugged and continued to have fun with the tea party. Lily was happy that her daddy was patient and played with her. She loved her daddy very much.
+Sam and Mia like to race. They race with their bikes, their feet, their cars. They race to see who is faster and who can win. Sometimes they race for fun, sometimes they race for a prize.
+
+One day, Mom said, "Who wants to help me tidy the house? If you do, you can have a prize." Sam and Mia both wanted a prize. They asked, "What is the prize, Mom?" Mom said, "The prize is a big cookie. But you have to tidy your room, the living room, and the kitchen."
+
+Sam and Mia ran to their room. They wanted to be the first to tidy it. They threw their toys in the box, their clothes in the closet, their books on the shelf. They said, "Done!" and ran to the living room. They picked up the pillows, the magazines, the cups. They said, "Done!" and ran to the kitchen. They put the plates in the sink, the crumbs in the trash, the spoons in the drawer. They said, "Done!" and ran to Mom.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Wow, you are very fast and very tidy. You both did a great job. You both deserve a prize." She gave them each a big cookie. Sam and Mia said, "Thank you, Mom. We love you and we love cookies." They ate their cookies and hugged Mom. They were happy. They had raced and won a prize.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play outside. Today, they see white snow on the road. They want to make a snowman.
+
+They roll big balls of snow and stack them up. They find a carrot, a hat and a scarf. They put them on the snowman. He looks funny and happy.
+
+"Hello, snowman!" Lily says. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom says in a silly voice. He pretends to be the snowman. Lily and Tom laugh.
+
+They play with the snowman for a long time. They make snow angels and throw snowballs. They have fun.
+
+But then, the sun comes out. It is not cold anymore. The snow starts to melt. The snowman gets smaller and smaller.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily says. "Our snowman is going away!"
+
+"Bye, snowman!" Tom says. "We will miss you!"
+
+They hug the snowman. He is wet and soft. They say thank you for the fun.
+
+They go inside. They drink hot cocoa and eat cookies. They are warm and cozy.
+
+They look out the window. They see a small pile of snow on the road. They smile. They remember their snowman. They hope he will come back.
+Sara likes to organize her toys. She has a big box for her dolls, a small box for her cars, and a basket for her books. She puts each toy in the right place when she is done playing. She feels happy when her room is neat and tidy.
+
+Yesterday, Sara had a play date with her friend Ben. Ben came to her house with his own toys. He had a train, a ball, and a teddy bear. Sara wanted to share her toys with Ben, but Ben did not want to organize them. He threw them all over the floor and made a big mess.
+
+Sara was sad and angry. She did not like to see her toys mixed up and dirty. She asked Ben to help her clean up, but he said no. He said he liked to play with all the toys at once. He did not care if they were in the wrong box or basket.
+
+Sara did not want to play with Ben anymore. She told him to go home. Ben was surprised and hurt. He did not understand why Sara was so mad. He thought they were having fun. He took his toys and left.
+
+Sara felt lonely and sorry. She realized that Ben was her friend, and he had a different way of playing. She wished she had been more kind and patient with him. She decided to call him and say sorry. She hoped he would come back and play with her again. She thought they could find a way to make both of them comfortable.
+Lily and Sam wanted to play outside. It was winter and there was snow on the ground. They put on their coats, hats, gloves and boots. They asked their mom if they could go out.
+
+"Okay, but be careful and don't go too far," their mom said. "The snow is very deep and cold. And come back soon, it will get dark early."
+
+Lily and Sam nodded and ran outside. They saw a big hill covered with snow. They thought it would be fun to slide down the hill.
+
+"Let's make a sled with this cardboard box," Lily said. She found a box near the trash can and tore off the flaps. She put the box on the snow and climbed in.
+
+"Me too, me too," Sam said. He tried to squeeze in the box with Lily, but it was too small.
+
+"No, Sam, there is no room for you. You are too big. Find your own box," Lily said.
+
+"But I want to slide with you. Please, Lily, let me in," Sam said. He started to cry.
+
+Lily did not want to share. She insisted that the box was hers and Sam had to find another one. She pushed Sam away and held the box tightly.
+
+"Fine, I don't need you. I will slide by myself," Lily said. She kicked the snow and made the box move. The box slid down the hill very fast. Lily laughed and screamed. She felt the wind in her face and the snow under her.
+
+Sam watched Lily slide away. He felt sad and angry. He wanted to slide too. He looked around for another box, but he could not find one. He saw a big rock instead. He thought it would be interesting to throw the rock at Lily. He picked up the rock and waited for Lily to come back up the hill.
+
+Lily reached the bottom of the hill. She was happy and excited. She wanted to slide again. She got out of the box and dragged it up the hill. She did not see Sam or the rock. She did not hear Sam say, "Take that, Lily!"
+
+Sam threw the rock as hard as he could. The rock flew through the air and hit Lily on the head. Lily fell down and dropped the box. She did not get up. She did not move. She did not make a sound.
+
+Sam realized what he had done. He felt scared and sorry. He ran to Lily and tried to wake her up. He called her name and shook her. He saw blood on the snow and on Lily's hat. He started to cry.
+
+Their mom heard Sam's cries and came outside. She saw Lily and Sam on the hill. She saw the rock and the blood. She screamed and ran to them. She called for help. She hugged Sam and Lily. She did not know if Lily would be okay. She wished they had shared the box. She wished they had not played outside. She wished they had listened to her.
+Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play in the garden. One day, they saw a red bottle on the ground. It had a picture of a skull and a cross on it.
+
+"What is this?" Tim asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is juice," Kim said.
+
+She opened the bottle and smelled it. It smelled bad.
+
+"Yuck! It is not juice. It is poison," she said.
+
+She threw the bottle away. But some of the poison spilled on her hand.
+
+"Ow! It hurts!" she cried.
+
+Tim ran to help her. He saw the poison on her hand. He was scared.
+
+"Let me take it off," he said.
+
+He licked her hand to take off the poison. He thought he was being brave and kind.
+
+But the poison was not good for him. It made him sick. He felt dizzy and weak. He fell down on the grass.
+
+Kim saw him fall. She was scared too.
+
+"Tim! Tim! Wake up!" she shouted.
+
+But Tim did not wake up. He was very still. He did not breathe.
+
+Kim started to cry. She did not know what to do.
+
+She called for their mom. But their mom did not hear her. She was inside the house.
+
+Kim was alone with Tim. She hugged him and cried.
+
+She wished they never found the red bottle. She wished they never played with the poison. She wished Tim was alive.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. Lily had a big pot and Ben had a wooden spoon. They filled the pot with water and put it on the stove. They turned the knob to make the fire.
+
+"Let's make soup!" Lily said. "What do we need?"
+
+Ben looked around and saw some carrots and potatoes on the counter. He grabbed them and chopped them with a knife. He was very careful not to cut himself. He put the pieces in the pot.
+
+"Good job, Ben!" Lily said. "Now we need some salt and pepper."
+
+She opened the cupboard and found the salt and pepper shakers. She sprinkled some in the pot and stirred the soup.
+
+"Yum, it smells good!" Ben said. "Is it ready?"
+
+Lily checked the pot. The water was boiling and the carrots and potatoes were soft. She nodded.
+
+"Yes, it's ready! Let's eat!"
+
+They got two bowls and two spoons and ladled some soup into them. They sat down at the table and blew on their soup to cool it down. They tasted it and smiled.
+
+"Mmm, this is the best soup ever!" Lily said.
+
+"I agree!" Ben said. "We are great chefs!"
+
+They ate their soup and enjoyed it. They didn't notice that the stove was still on and the fire was fierce. The pot was empty and the bottom was starting to burn. Smoke was rising from the stove and filling the kitchen.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud beep. It was the smoke alarm. They looked up and saw the smoke and the fire. They were scared.
+
+"Mommy! Daddy!" they shouted. "Help!"
+
+Their parents heard them and ran to the kitchen. They saw the mess and the danger. They grabbed Lily and Ben and took them outside. They called the fire department and waited for them to come.
+
+The firemen arrived and put out the fire. They checked the stove and the pot. They were ruined. They soaked them with water and threw them away.
+
+They told Lily and Ben that they were lucky they were not hurt. They also told them that they should never play with the stove or the fire. They said it was very dangerous and could cause a big fire.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry and ashamed. They apologized to their parents and the firemen. They promised to never do it again.
+
+Their parents hugged them and said they loved them. They said they were glad they were safe. They also said they were proud of them for making soup. They said they could help them cook in the kitchen, but only with their supervision and permission.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and thanked them. They learned their lesson. They still liked to pretend they were chefs, but they never played with the stove or the fire again.
+Sara was a very obedient girl. She always listened to her mom and dad and did what they told her. One day, her mom asked her to help set the table for dinner. Sara was happy to help. She took a cup from the cupboard and carried it to the table.
+
+But on the way, she saw her cat, Fluffy, playing with a ball of yarn. Sara loved Fluffy and wanted to play with him too. She forgot about the cup and ran to Fluffy. She did not see the toy car that her brother had left on the floor. She stumbled over the car and fell down. The cup flew out of her hand and broke into pieces.
+
+"Oh no!" Sara cried. She was scared and sad. She had broken the cup and made a mess. She had not been obedient. She had not done what her mom had asked her.
+
+Her mom heard the noise and came to see what had happened. She saw Sara on the floor, surrounded by broken glass and yarn. She saw Fluffy and the toy car. She understood what had happened.
+
+She knelt down and hugged Sara. "Are you okay, sweetie?" she asked.
+
+Sara nodded. She felt a little pain in her knee, but she felt worse in her heart. She looked at her mom with tears in her eyes. "I'm sorry, mom," she said. "I broke the cup. I did not set the table. I was not obedient. I was bad."
+
+Her mom smiled and wiped her tears. "You are not bad, Sara," she said. "You made a mistake. You got distracted and stumbled. It happens to everyone. The cup is not important. What is important is that you are safe and you are sorry. I forgive you, Sara. You are still my obedient and good girl."
+
+Sara felt better. She hugged her mom back and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. I will be more careful next time. Can I still help you set the table?"
+
+Her mom nodded and said, "Of course, Sara. You can help me pick up the pieces and get a new cup. And then we can have dinner together. And maybe after dinner, you can play with Fluffy and your brother. How does that sound?"
+
+Sara smiled and said, "That sounds great, mom. Let's do that." She got up and took her mom's hand. They walked to the table, happy and obedient.

+"Look, Tom, I found a pretty shell!" Lily said. "Can you help me tie it?"
+
+Tom came over and looked at the shell. He tried to make a hole in it with a stick, but it was too hard. He shook his head.
+
+"Sorry, Lily, I can't tie it. It's too hard to make a hole. Maybe we can find another shell that is softer."
+
+Lily was sad. She really liked the shell. She looked around and saw a man selling shells on a table. He had many shells of different colors and shapes. Some of them had holes already.
+
+"Tom, look, maybe we can buy a shell from that man. He has many shells that we can tie."
+
+Tom nodded. He had some coins in his pocket. He and Lily ran to the man and looked at his shells. They saw one that was blue and green and had a hole. It was very pretty.
+
+"Excuse me, sir, how much is this shell?" Tom asked.
+
+The man smiled. He saw that Lily and Tom were children who liked shells.
+
+"That shell is very special. It is only one coin. Do you like it?"
+
+"Yes, we like it very much. We want to make a necklace with it. Can we buy it, please?" Lily said.
+
+The man nodded. He took the coin from Tom and gave them the shell. He also gave them a string to tie it.
+
+"Here you go, children. Enjoy your necklace. It will fit you very well."
+
+Lily and Tom thanked the man and ran back to their spot. They tied the shell to the string and put it around Lily's neck. It fit her perfectly. She was very happy.
+
+"Look, Tom, I have a beautiful necklace. Thank you for helping me."
+
+Tom smiled. He was happy too.
+
+"You're welcome, Lily. You look very pretty. I'm glad we found the shell."
+Lily and Ben were playing in their room. They had many toys and clothes to make fun games. Lily liked to dress up as a princess and Ben liked to be a knight. They used a hanger to make a sword and a scarf to make a cape.
+
+But then, the hanger broke. It snapped in two pieces and Ben was sad. He could not be a knight without a sword. He said to Lily, "Look, my sword is broken. Can you help me repair it?"
+
+Lily looked at the hanger and thought for a moment. She said, "I have an idea. We can use some tape to stick the pieces together. Then, your sword will be good again."
+
+She ran to the closet and found some tape. She came back and wrapped the tape around the hanger. She gave it to Ben and said, "Here, try it now."
+
+Ben took the hanger and swung it in the air. It did not break anymore. He smiled and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister. You are very fair."
+
+Lily smiled back and said, "You are welcome, Ben. You are a good brother. You are very brave."
+
+They hugged and continued to play. They had a lot of fun with their hanger sword and scarf cape. They were happy.
+Sam and Tom are brothers. They like to play outside in the yard. One day, they find a big hole in the ground. It is a pit. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Let's watch the pit," Sam says. "Maybe we will see something."
+
+"Okay," Tom says. They sit near the pit and look inside. They see nothing but dirt and rocks.
+
+They wait and wait. They are bored. They want to have some fun.
+
+"I have an idea," Sam says. "Let's throw some things in the pit. Maybe we will hear a splash or a bang."
+
+"Okay," Tom says. They look around and find some sticks, stones, and cans. They throw them in the pit. They hear some noises. They laugh.
+
+They throw more and more things. They do not see that their mom is coming. She is angry.
+
+"Sam! Tom! What are you doing?" she shouts. "Stop throwing things in the pit! You are making a mess and you could hurt someone!"
+
+Sam and Tom stop. They look at their mom. They feel guilty. They know they did something bad.
+
+"Sorry, mom," they say. "We were just watching the pit."
+
+Mom shakes her head. She is not happy. She makes them pick up the things they threw. She tells them to go inside and take a nap.
+
+Sam and Tom go inside. They are sad. They wish they did not throw things in the pit. They wish they listened to their mom. They hope she will forgive them. They say sorry again. They hug their mom. They go to their beds. They fall asleep.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Ben had a lion toy and Lily had a giraffe toy.
+
+"Roar!" Ben said, making his lion jump on the couch. "I am the king of the jungle!"
+
+"Neigh!" Lily said, making her giraffe stretch its long neck. "I am the tallest of the animals!"
+
+They laughed and played until they heard a loud sneeze from the kitchen. It was their mom, who was making cookies for them.
+
+"Mom, are you okay?" Ben asked, running to the kitchen.
+
+"Yes, honey, I'm fine. I just sneezed because I pricked my finger with a pin. See?" Mom said, showing him a tiny drop of blood on her finger.
+
+"Ouch! That must hurt!" Ben said, feeling sorry for his mom.
+
+"It's okay, it's just a little pin. It will heal soon. Do you want to help me with the cookies?" Mom asked, smiling.
+
+"Yes, please!" Ben said, excited.
+
+Lily followed him to the kitchen, carrying her giraffe. She saw the pin on the table and was curious.
+
+"What is this?" She asked, pointing at the pin.
+
+"That's a pin, Lily. It's sharp and can hurt you. Don't touch it, okay?" Mom said, warning her.
+
+"Okay, mom. I won't touch it." Lily said, nodding.
+
+But she still wanted to look at it. She leaned closer and closer to the pin, until her nose almost touched it. She saw how shiny and pointy it was. She wondered how it felt.
+
+She was about to touch it with her finger, when she felt a tickle in her nose. She tried to hold it back, but she couldn't. She sneezed so hard that the pin flew off the table and landed on the floor.
+
+"Ah-choo!" She sneezed, making everyone jump.
+
+"Lily, are you okay?" Mom asked, turning to her.
+
+"Yes, mom. I'm okay. I just sneezed." Lily said, rubbing her nose.
+
+"Why did you sneeze, Lily?" Ben asked, looking at her.
+
+"I don't know, Ben. Maybe because of the pin." Lily said, pointing at the floor.
+
+"Where is the pin, Lily?" Mom asked, looking at the floor.
+
+"I don't know, mom. It went far away." Lily said, shrugging.
+
+"Far away? How far away?" Mom asked, worried.
+
+"Very far away. Distant." Lily said, using a big word she learned from a book.
+
+"Distant? How do you know that word, Lily?" Mom asked, impressed.
+
+"I read it in a book, mom. It means very far away. Like the stars." Lily said, proudly.
+
+"That's right, Lily. You are very smart. But we still need to find the pin. It can be dangerous if someone steps on it." Mom said, looking around.
+
+"Okay, mom. Let's find the pin." Lily said, helping her mom.
+
+They searched the floor for the pin, but they couldn't find it. It was too small and too distant. They looked under the table, behind the couch, and in the corners. But they still couldn't find it.
+
+"Where is the pin, mom?" Ben asked, frustrated.
+
+"I don't know, Ben. It's very hard to see. Maybe we need a magnifying glass." Mom said, thinking.
+
+"A magnifying glass? What's that, mom?" Lily asked, curious.
+
+"That's a thing that makes things bigger, Lily. Like this." Mom said, showing them a picture in a book.
+
+"Wow! That's cool, mom. Can we have one?" Ben asked, amazed.
+
+"Maybe, Ben. But we don't have one right now. We have to keep looking for the pin." Mom said, continuing the search.
+
+They searched and searched, but they still couldn't find the pin. They were about to give up, when they heard a meow from the bedroom. It was their cat, Fluffy, who was playing with something on the bed.
+
+"Fluffy, what are you doing?" Mom asked, going to the bedroom.
+
+She saw Fluffy batting at something shiny on the bed. It was the pin. Fluffy had found it and brought it to the bedroom.
+
+"Fluffy, you found the pin!" Mom said, relieved.
+
+She picked up the pin and put it in a safe place. She thanked Fluffy and gave him a hug. Fluffy purred and licked her face.
+
+"Fluffy, you are a hero!" Ben said, admiring him.
+
+"Fluffy, you are a good cat!" Lily said,
+Anna is sick. She has a cough and a fever. Mommy gives her a pill to make her feel better. Anna does not like the pill. It is bitter and big.
+
+"Anna, you have to take the pill. It will help you get well soon," Mommy says.
+
+"But I don't want to, Mommy. It is yucky," Anna says.
+
+Mommy hugs Anna and says, "I know, sweetie. But sometimes we have to do things we don't like for our own good. How about this? If you take the pill, you can wear your favorite dress today. The one with the flowers and the bow."
+
+Anna loves her dress. It is pretty and soft. She thinks for a moment. She wants to wear her dress, but she does not want to take the pill.
+
+"OK, Mommy. I will take the pill. But only if you wear your dress too. The one with the stripes and the buttons," Anna says.
+
+Mommy smiles and says, "Deal. You are such a smart and brave girl, Anna. I am proud of you. And you know what? You can always depend on me. I will always be here for you, no matter what."
+
+Anna nods and takes the pill. It is still bitter and big, but she swallows it with some water. Mommy kisses her forehead and says, "Good job, Anna. Now let's go and wear our dresses. We will look so beautiful together."
+
+Anna and Mommy go to the closet and pick their dresses. They put them on and look at each other in the mirror. They both smile and hug. Anna feels a little better. She knows Mommy is right. She can always depend on Mommy. And Mommy can always depend on Anna. They are a team. They are a family.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with the horses in the stable. The horses are big and soft. Anna and Ben give them hay and water. They also brush their fur and talk to them.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben find a small horse in the stable. It is brown and white. It has a long mane and a short tail. Anna and Ben think it is cute. They want to play with it.
+
+"Hello, small horse," Anna says. "What is your name?"
+
+The small horse does not answer. It looks scared. It moves away from Anna and Ben.
+
+"Come here, small horse," Ben says. "We are nice. We want to be your friends."
+
+The small horse does not come. It kicks the wall of the stable. It makes a loud noise.
+
+"Stop, small horse," Anna says. "You are hurting the stable. You are making the big horses angry."
+
+The small horse does not stop. It kicks harder. It strikes Anna and Ben with its hooves. It hurts them.
+
+"Ow, small horse," Anna and Ben cry. "Why are you so mean? We do not like you."
+
+The small horse does not care. It runs out of the stable. It leaves Anna and Ben behind.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They have scratches and bruises. They hug each other. They hug the big horses. They say sorry to the stable.
+
+"Maybe the small horse was lost," Anna says. "Maybe it was looking for its family."
+
+"Maybe," Ben says. "But it was not nice to us. It was not nice to the stable. It was not nice to the big horses."
+
+Anna and Ben hope the small horse will find its way home. They hope it will learn to be nice. They hope they will never see it again.
+Tommy loved to clap. He clapped when he was happy, when he was sad, when he was bored, and when he was excited. He clapped all the time, even when he was not supposed to. He clapped in the car, in the store, in the park, and in the school. He clapped so much that his hands hurt, but he did not care.
+
+One day, Tommy went to see a musician with his mom. The musician played a big piano and made beautiful sounds. Tommy liked the sounds and wanted to clap, but his mom told him to wait. She said he had to be quiet and listen, and clap only at the end. Tommy tried to listen, but he was too eager to clap. He clapped after every sound, even when the musician was not done. He clapped so loud that everyone heard him and looked at him. He clapped so much that he missed the music.
+
+The musician was not happy. He stopped playing and looked at Tommy. He said, "Why are you clapping so much? Don't you like my music?" Tommy said, "I do, I do! I like your music a lot! That's why I clap!" The musician said, "But you are not listening to my music. You are making noise and disturbing me and the others. If you want to enjoy my music, you have to be respectful and patient. You have to clap only when I am done, and not too loud. That is the perfect way to clap."
+
+Tommy felt sorry. He did not mean to be rude or annoying. He just wanted to show his joy. He said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Musician. I did not know. I will be quiet and listen, and clap only at the end, and not too loud. I want to hear your music and make you happy." The musician smiled and said, "Thank you, Tommy. That is very kind of you. Now, let me play you a special song, and you can clap as much as you want when I am done." He played a beautiful song, and Tommy listened with his ears and his heart. He felt the music and understood it. He did not clap until the musician was done, and then he clapped with his hands and his smile. He clapped the perfect way.
+
+The musician was happy. He said, "You are a good listener, Tommy. You have learned a valuable lesson. Clapping is a wonderful way to express your feelings, but you have to know when and how to clap. You have to respect the music and the musician, and the other listeners. You have to clap with your ears, your heart, and your hands. That is the perfect way to clap." Tommy nodded and said, "Thank you, Mr. Musician. You have taught me a valuable lesson. I will remember it always. I will clap the perfect way." He hugged the musician and his mom, and they all clapped together. They clapped with joy and gratitude. They clapped the perfect way.
+Sara and Lily were sisters who liked to play dress-up. They had a big box of jewelry that their mom gave them. They had necklaces, bracelets, rings, and earrings. They liked to pretend they were princesses or fairies or stars.
+
+One day, Sara found a new necklace in the box. It was shiny and sparkly and had a big heart pendant. Sara wanted to wear it, but Lily saw it too and grabbed it.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Sara said. "I saw it first!"
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily said. "It's so pretty!"
+
+They both pulled on the necklace, trying to take it from each other. The necklace broke and the beads flew everywhere.
+
+"Look what you did!" Sara cried. "You broke the necklace!"
+
+"It's your fault!" Lily cried. "You were too rough!"
+
+They were both very sad and angry. They did not want to play with each other anymore.
+
+Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw the broken necklace and the beads on the floor. She asked them what happened.
+
+"We were playing with the jewelry and we found a new necklace and we both wanted it and we broke it!" Sara and Lily said at the same time.
+
+Mom sighed and hugged them. She said, "I'm sorry, girls. That necklace was a gift from your grandma. She gave it to me when I was little. I wanted to share it with you, but I forgot to tell you. It was very special to me."
+
+Sara and Lily felt sorry for their mom and for breaking the necklace. They said, "We're sorry, mom. We didn't know. We were just testing it. We wanted to see how it looked on us. We didn't mean to break it."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "It's okay, girls. I know you didn't mean to. Accidents happen. But you have to be careful with the jewelry. It's not a toy. It's something to wear and enjoy and take care of. And you have to share it with each other. You are both my precious jewels."
+
+Sara and Lily hugged their mom and said, "We love you, mom. And we love each other. Can we fix the necklace?"
+
+Mom said, "Maybe we can. Let's try. And then we can have some yummy cookies and milk. How does that sound?"
+
+Sara and Lily said, "That sounds great, mom. Thank you!"
+
+They helped their mom pick up the beads and find the string. They tried to fix the necklace together. They learned to be gentle and patient and kind. They also learned to appreciate the jewelry and their mom and their sister. They had a happy afternoon.
+Sam and Tom were brothers who liked to play with cars. They had many cars, but they wanted more. They saw a big store that sold many cars, but they had no money. They decided to take some cars without paying.
+
+"Look, Tom, this car is so shiny and fast. Let's take it and improve our collection," Sam said.
+
+"OK, Sam, but we have to be quick and quiet. We don't want anyone to see us," Tom said.
+
+They put some cars in their pockets and ran out of the store. They did not see the man who worked at the store. He saw them and was angry. He called the police and told them what the brothers did.
+
+The police came and found the brothers. They saw the cars in their pockets and knew they were stolen. They took the brothers to the police station and called their parents.
+
+The parents were very sad and angry. They had to pay a lot of money to the store and the police. They had to take away the brothers' cars and toys. They had to make the brothers say sorry and work hard to earn money.
+
+The brothers cried and wished they had not taken the cars. They learned that stealing was bad and wrong. They missed their cars and toys. They were not happy. They were not rich. They watched the sunrise and felt sorry.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They had a big sheet and some sticks. They wanted to make a tent.
+
+"Let's imagine we are camping in the forest," said Lily. "We can see the stars and hear the animals."
+
+"OK," said Ben. "But we need a fire to keep warm and cook marshmallows."
+
+They found some rocks and sticks and pretended to make a fire. They also found some pillows and blankets to make their tent cozy.
+
+They crawled inside their tent and looked at the sky. They saw some clouds and birds. They made up stories about what they saw.
+
+"Look, that cloud looks like a dragon," said Lily. "He is flying to his cave."
+
+"And that bird looks like a fairy," said Ben. "She is sprinkling magic dust."
+
+They giggled and hugged each other. They were happy and kind to each other. They had a lot of fun in their tent.
+Lily liked music very much. She liked to sing and dance and play with her toy piano. She hoped to be a fancy music star one day, like the ones she saw on TV.
+
+One day, her mom took her to a big store. There were many things to see and touch. Lily saw a shiny red guitar. She wanted to play with it. She asked her mom, "Can I have the guitar, please?"
+
+Her mom said, "No, Lily, you can't. The guitar is not a toy. It is for grown-ups who know how to play music. You have to learn and practice a lot before you can play a guitar."
+
+Lily was sad. She did not understand why she could not have the guitar. She thought it was not fair. She said, "But I love music. I want to be a music star. I can play the guitar."
+
+Her mom said, "I know you love music, Lily, but you have to be patient and respectful. You can't just take things that are not yours. You have to earn them. Why don't you play with your toy piano at home? Maybe one day, when you are older and better, you can have a real guitar."
+
+Lily thought about what her mom said. She realized that her mom was right. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was being naughty. I will play with my toy piano and learn more music. I hope you are not mad at me."
+
+Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said, "I'm not mad at you, Lily. I'm proud of you. You are a good girl. You have a big dream and a big heart. I hope you will always love music and be happy."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged her mom back. She said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. You are the best mom ever."
+
+The moral value of the story is: You have to work hard and respect others to achieve your dreams.
+Lily loved pandas. She had a big panda toy that she always hold in her bed. She named him Po. Po was soft and black and white. He was her best friend.
+
+One day, Lily went to the zoo with her mom and dad. She was very happy to see the real pandas. They were eating bamboo and playing in the grass. Lily wanted to hold them too, but her mom said no. She said the pandas were wild and they might bite or scratch.
+
+Lily was sad. She saw a small panda that looked like Po. He was alone in a corner. Lily thought he was lonely. She sneaked away from her mom and dad and climbed over the fence. She ran to the small panda and tried to hold him.
+
+But the small panda was not like Po. He was scared and angry. He growled and pushed Lily away. He scratched her arm and bit her hand. Lily cried out loud. She dropped Po on the ground.
+
+The zookeepers heard Lily and came to help. They took her to the nurse and bandaged her wounds. They also picked up Po and gave him back to Lily. They told her that she was very naughty and dangerous. They said she should never touch the wild animals. They said she should respect them and watch them from a distance.
+
+Lily was sorry and ashamed. She hugged Po and said sorry to the small panda. She learned her lesson. She realized that the real pandas were not toys. They were mysterious and beautiful creatures that had their own feelings and needs. She promised to be more careful and kind to them. She thanked the zookeepers and the nurse. She said goodbye to the pandas and went home with her mom and dad. She still loved pandas, but she also loved Po more. He was her true friend.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with toys and eat snacks. One day, they see a big box in the freezer. It has a picture of ice cream on it. Lily and Ben love ice cream. It is cold and sweet and yummy.
+
+They want to open the box and eat some ice cream. But Mom said no. She said they have to wait for dinner. She said ice cream is a treat, not a meal. Lily and Ben are sad and angry. They think Mom is mean.
+
+They wait for Mom to go to the bathroom. Then they run to the freezer. They open the box and see many scoops of ice cream. They take two spoons and start to eat. They eat fast and quiet. They think they are smart and sneaky.
+
+But Mom hears them. She comes to the kitchen and sees them. She is not happy. She tells them to stop. She tells them they are naughty. She tells them they have to go to their room. She tells them they will not have any ice cream for dessert.
+
+Lily and Ben are sorry. They have a tummy ache. They have a headache. They have a heartache. They wish they listened to Mom. They wish they were good. They hug Mom and say sorry. Mom hugs them and says she loves them. She tells them to learn from their mistake. She tells them to be patient and polite. She tells them they can have some ice cream another day.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They saw a big tree with red apples. They wanted to pick some apples and eat them.
+
+"Look, Ben, there is a ladder near the shed. We can use it to climb the tree," Lily said.
+
+"Good idea, Lily. You are smart. I will get the ladder and you hold it for me," Ben said.
+
+Ben ran to the shed and dragged the ladder to the tree. He put it against the trunk and started to climb. Lily held the bottom of the ladder.
+
+"Be careful, Ben. Don't fall," Lily said.
+
+"I won't, Lily. I am brave. Look, I can reach the apples. They are juicy and sweet. Do you want one?" Ben said.
+
+He picked an apple and threw it down to Lily. She caught it and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are kind. You offer me an apple. Can I climb too?" Lily said.
+
+"Sure, Lily. Come up. There are more apples for us," Ben said.
+
+He moved to the side and made room for Lily. She climbed the ladder and joined him on the branch. They ate the apples and laughed.
+
+They did not see the dog that came out of the house. The dog was big and black. He saw the ladder and the children. He was curious and hungry. He barked and ran to the ladder. He bit the ladder and shook it.
+
+"Hey, stop it, dog. You are stupid. You make the ladder move. We will fall," Ben shouted.
+
+Lily screamed and hugged Ben. They were scared. They dropped the apples and held the branch.
+
+"Help, help. Mom, dad. The dog is bad. He wants to make us fall," Lily cried.
+
+Mom and dad heard the children and the dog. They ran to the garden and saw what was happening. They were angry and worried.
+
+"Bad dog, bad dog. Go away. Leave the children alone," mom said.
+
+She grabbed the dog by the collar and pulled him away from the ladder. She tied him to a post.
+
+"Dad, dad. Please help us. We are sorry. We just wanted some apples," Ben said.
+
+Dad came to the ladder and held it steady. He told the children to climb down slowly and carefully. He hugged them and kissed them.
+
+"It's okay, kids. We are glad you are safe. But you should not climb the tree without asking us. It is dangerous. And you should not leave the ladder outside. The dog can play with it and hurt himself or you," dad said.
+
+"We are sorry, dad. We will not do it again. We love you," the children said.
+
+They apologized to mom and dad. They also apologized to the dog and gave him a bone. They learned their lesson and never climbed the tree again. They ate the apples from a basket instead.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play at the beach. They have a big bucket and a shovel. They mix sand and water to make mud. They make shapes with the mud.
+
+"Look, I made a dolphin!" Anna says. She shows Ben her mud dolphin. It has a long nose and a tail.
+

+
+"Can I help you?" Anna asks. She is kind. She likes to share.
+
+"Yes, please!" Ben says. He is happy. He likes to learn.
+
+Anna and Ben mix more sand and water. They make a big mud dolphin together. It has a smile and a fin. They pat the mud dolphin and give it a name.
+
+"Let's call it Dolly!" Anna says.
+
+"Dolly the dolphin!" Ben says. They giggle.
+
+They see a real dolphin in the water. It jumps and splashes. It is gray and shiny. It is attractive.
+
+"Hi, Dolly!" the real dolphin says. It makes a noise.
+
+"Hi, dolphin!" Anna and Ben say. They wave.
+
+The real dolphin swims closer. It looks at the mud dolphin. It likes the mud dolphin. It is friendly.

+Anna likes to wash her plant every day. She has a pretty plant with green leaves and pink flowers. She puts water in a cup and pours it on the plant. She says, "Hello, plant. You are my friend. I will take care of you."
+
+One day, Anna's brother Tom comes into her room. He sees the plant and says, "What is this? It is boring. I want to play with it." He grabs the plant and pulls it out of the pot. He throws it on the floor and laughs.
+
+Anna is very sad and angry. She says, "No, Tom! That is my plant! You are mean! You hurt my plant!" She runs to the plant and picks it up. She sees that some leaves and flowers are broken. She cries.
+
+Tom sees that Anna is crying and feels sorry. He says, "I'm sorry, Anna. I didn't know you liked the plant so much. I was just having fun. Can I help you fix it?"
+
+Anna stops crying and says, "Yes, Tom. You can help me. We need to put the plant back in the pot and give it some water. Maybe it will feel better." She gives Tom the cup and says, "You can pour the water. Be gentle."
+
+Tom and Anna work together to fix the plant. They put the broken leaves and flowers in the trash. They put the plant back in the pot and pour some water on it. They say, "We're sorry, plant. We hope you are okay. You are still pretty."
+
+The plant seems to perk up a little. It moves its leaves and opens its flowers. It looks like it is smiling. Anna and Tom smile too. They hug each other and say, "We love you, plant. And we love each other."
+Sara liked to play with her mom's jewelry. She liked the shiny rings and necklaces and bracelets. She liked to put them on and pretend she was a princess. But her mom did not like that. She said jewelry was not for playing. She said jewelry was for special days.
+
+One day, Sara saw a new box on her mom's dresser. It had a big bow on it. Sara was curious. She wanted to see what was inside. She climbed on a chair and opened the box. She saw a beautiful necklace with a blue stone. It sparkled in the light. Sara loved it. She wanted to try it on.
+
+She took the necklace out of the box and put it around her neck. She looked at herself in the mirror. She smiled. She felt like a princess. She decided to show her mom. She ran to the kitchen where her mom was making lunch.
+
+"Mom, look at me!" Sara said. "I have a pretty necklace!"
+
+Her mom turned around and gasped. She saw Sara wearing her necklace. She recognized it as a gift from her husband for their anniversary. She was angry and scared. She thought Sara might break it or lose it.
+
+"Sara, what are you doing?" her mom said. "That is not your necklace. That is my necklace. It is very special and expensive. You cannot play with it. Give it back to me right now!"
+
+Sara did not understand. She liked the necklace. She wanted to keep it. She did not want to give it back. She shook her head.
+
+"No, mom, I want it!" Sara said. "It is so pretty. Please, can I have it? I request it!"
+
+Her mom was shocked. She did not like Sara's request. She did not like Sara's tone. She did not like Sara's attitude. She felt Sara was being rude and selfish. She decided to teach Sara a lesson.
+
+"No, Sara, you cannot have it. You cannot request it. You cannot demand it. You have to ask nicely and politely. And you have to respect my things. You have to understand that some things are not for playing. They are for looking and admiring. They are for special occasions. They are for grown-ups. You are not a grown-up. You are a child. And you have to listen to me. Now, take off the necklace and put it back in the box. And say sorry to me."
+
+Sara did not like her mom's words. She did not like her mom's voice. She did not like her mom's rules. She felt her mom was being mean and unfair. She decided to resist her mom.
+
+"No, mom, I will not!" Sara said. "I will not take it off. I will not put it back. I will not say sorry. I will do what I want. I will keep the necklace. It is mine now!"
+
+Her mom was furious. She did not like Sara's defiance. She did not like Sara's disobedience. She did not like Sara's rebellion. She decided to take action.
+
+She walked towards Sara and reached for the necklace. She tried to take it off. But Sara held on to it. She pulled it away. She ran to the living room. She tried to hide behind the couch. She hoped her mom would leave her alone.
+
+But her mom did not. She followed Sara and found her. She grabbed Sara and lifted her up. She took the necklace from her. She put it back in the box. She put the box on a high shelf. She carried Sara to her room. She put her on her bed. She told her to stay there. She told her she was in trouble. She told her she was disappointed. She told her she would talk to her later.
+
+Sara was sad and angry. She did not like her mom's actions. She did not like her mom's punishment. She did not like her mom's words. She felt her mom did not love her. She felt her mom did not understand her. She felt her mom did not care about her. She cried and cried. She wished she had the necklace. She wished she was a princess. She wished she had a different mom.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the garden. They have a big box of toys. Lily likes to use the velvet doll. She hugs it and talks to it. Ben likes to use the spicy car. He makes it zoom and beep.
+
+"Can I use your doll?" Ben asks Lily.
+
+"No, it is mine. You have your car," Lily says.
+
+"But I want to try it. It is soft and pretty," Ben says.
+
+He tries to grab the doll from Lily. Lily pulls it back. They start to fight.
+
+"Stop!" Mom says. She comes out of the house. She sees the box of toys. She sees Lily and Ben.
+
+"What are you doing? Why are you fighting?" Mom asks.
+
+"Lily won't let me use her doll. She is mean," Ben says.
+
+"Ben won't use his car. He wants my doll. He is rude," Lily says.
+
+Mom shakes her head. She picks up the velvet doll and the spicy car.
+
+"Listen, you have many toys. You can share them and play nicely. Or you can have no toys and go inside," Mom says.
+
+She holds the doll and the car in her hands.
+
+Lily and Ben look at each other. They don't want to lose their toys. They don't want to go inside.
+
+"Sorry, Lily. Can I use your doll for a little bit?" Ben says.
+
+"Sorry, Ben. Can I use your car for a little bit?" Lily says.
+
+They smile and nod. They swap their toys. They hug Mom.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. We will share and play nicely," they say.
+
+Mom smiles and puts the doll and the car back in the box.
+
+"That's good. I'm proud of you. Have fun, my loves," she says.
+
+She goes back to the house. Lily and Ben play with the velvet doll and the spicy car. They are happy.
+Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play outside in the park. Today it is cold and windy. Ben and Mia wear jackets to keep warm.
+
+"Look at my jacket!" Ben says. "It is green and has a zip. I can zip it up and down. Zip, zip, zip!" He zips his jacket up and down fast.
+
+"Wow, that is a nice jacket!" Mia says. "My jacket is pink and has buttons. I can button it up and down. Button, button, button!" She buttons her jacket up and down slow.
+
+Ben and Mia run and play in the park. They slide on the slide, swing on the swing, and climb on the monkey bars. They have fun.
+
+But then Ben sees a big dog. He is scared of dogs. He runs away from the dog. He forgets to zip his jacket. His jacket flies open in the wind. The dog sees his jacket and thinks it is a toy. The dog runs after Ben and grabs his jacket. The dog rips his jacket with his teeth.
+
+"Help, help!" Ben cries. "The dog has my jacket!"
+
+Mia hears Ben. She is not scared of dogs. She runs to Ben and the dog. She talks to the dog in a calm voice.
+
+"Hello, dog. You are a good dog. But this is not your toy. This is Ben's jacket. He needs his jacket to keep warm. Can you please give it back?"
+
+The dog listens to Mia. He drops the jacket and wags his tail. He licks Mia's hand. He is sorry.
+
+"Thank you, dog. Thank you, Mia." Ben says. He picks up his jacket. It is torn and dirty. He is sad.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. Your jacket is broken." Mia says. "But you are not hurt. That is good."
+
+"Yes, you are right. I am not hurt. That is good." Ben says. "But I wish I zipped my jacket. Then the dog would not take it."
+
+"Next time, remember to zip your jacket." Mia says. "And don't be afraid of dogs. They are not bad. They just want to play."
+
+Ben nods. He learns his lesson. He hugs Mia. They are still friends. They go home with their jackets.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. They found a big worm and put it in a bin. They wanted to show it to Mom.
+
+But when they got to the house, they saw a big dog. The dog was barking and running towards them. Lily and Tom were scared. They did not like the dog. They dropped the bin and ran away.
+
+The dog saw the bin and smelled the worm. He wanted to eat it. He knocked over the bin and grabbed the worm in his mouth. He was happy.
+
+But the worm did not like the dog. He wiggled and tickled the dog's tongue. The dog did not like that. He spat out the worm and ran away.
+
+The worm was brave. He crawled out of the bin and looked for a safe place. He saw a hose. He followed the hose to a tap. He turned on the tap and washed himself. He felt clean and fresh.
+
+He saw Lily and Tom hiding behind a tree. They saw the worm and smiled. They were sorry they left him. They came out and picked him up. They said sorry to the worm and thanked him for being brave. They put him back in the garden and gave him some leaves. The worm was happy. He had new friends.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a large barrel near the slide. They ran to the barrel and looked inside. It was full of apples.
+
+"Wow, look at all the apples!" Tom said. "Let's take some and eat them."
+
+"OK, but we have to ask first," Lily said. "Maybe they belong to someone."
+
+They looked around and saw a man sitting on a bench. He had a hat and a coat. He was reading a book.
+
+"Excuse me, sir," Lily said. "Can we have some apples from your barrel?"
+
+The man looked up and smiled. He closed his book and walked to the barrel.
+
+"Sure, you can have some apples," he said. "I brought them here to offer them to anyone who wants them. They are from my farm. They are very sweet and juicy."
+
+"Thank you, sir," Tom and Lily said. They each took an apple and bit into it. It was delicious.
+
+"You're welcome, kids," the man said. "Enjoy your apples. And have fun in the park."
+
+Tom and Lily thanked the man again and ran back to the slide. They shared their apples with their friends and had a great time. They were happy that the man was so kind and generous. They liked his large barrel of apples.
+Tom and Jen were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and stories with their cars, dolls, and animals. But after a while, they started to feel hungry. They looked at the clock and saw that it was almost time for lunch.
+
+They decided to go to the kitchen and see if Mom had made something yummy for them. They walked down the hall and smelled something good. They hoped it was pizza or macaroni and cheese. They opened the door and saw Mom standing by the stove. She smiled and said, "Hi, kids. I have a surprise for you."
+
+Tom and Jen ran to the table and saw a big cake with frosting and sprinkles. It looked delicious. They clapped and cheered and said, "Wow, Mom, thank you! Is it our birthday?"
+
+Mom laughed and said, "No, it's not your birthday. But it is a special day. Do you remember what we talked about last week?"
+
+Tom and Jen thought hard and then remembered. Mom had told them that they were going to have a new baby brother or sister soon. They had asked a lot of questions and Mom had explained that the baby was growing inside her belly and that they would be able to see and hold the baby when it was ready to come out.
+
+Mom said, "Well, today is the day. The baby is ready to come out. That's why I made this cake for you. To celebrate and to say goodbye for a little while. Dad is going to take me to the hospital and you are going to stay with Grandma. She will be here soon to pick you up. Are you excited?"
+
+Tom and Jen nodded and hugged Mom. They were excited and curious and a little nervous. They wanted to see the baby and to be a big brother and sister. They also wanted to eat the cake. Mom said, "You can have a slice of cake before you go. But first, do you want to feel the baby kick?"
+
+Tom and Jen said yes and Mom lifted her shirt and showed them her big belly. She said, "Put your hands here and wait." They did as she said and felt a bump and a wiggle. They gasped and smiled and said, "Wow, that's the baby!"
+
+Mom said, "Yes, that's the baby. And do you know what? The baby can hear you too. Do you want to say hello?"
+
+Tom and Jen said yes and leaned closer to Mom's belly. They said, "Hello, baby. We are Tom and Jen. We are your big brother and sister. We can't wait to meet you and play with you. We love you, baby."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "That's very sweet. I'm sure the baby loves you too. And so do I. You are the best kids ever. Now, let's have some cake before Grandma arrives." She cut the cake and gave them each a big slice. They ate it happily and felt a warm and fuzzy feeling in their hearts. They didn't know what the baby would look like or what the baby's name would be. But they knew that the baby would be part of their family and that they would love the baby no matter what. They were ready for the new adventure.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a big box of blocks, a doll, a car, and a mouse. The mouse was not a real mouse, but a toy mouse that could move and make noises. Lily and Tom liked the mouse a lot, and they took turns to make it run and squeak.
+
+"Look, Lily, the mouse is so fast and funny!" Tom said, as he pushed a button on the mouse's back.
+
+"Yes, Tom, the mouse is very cute and smart!" Lily said, as she clapped her hands.
+
+But then, something strange happened. The mouse started to shrink. It became smaller and smaller, until it was as tiny as a pea. Lily and Tom could not believe their eyes. They looked at each other, and then at the mouse.
+
+"What happened to the mouse?" Lily asked, with a worried voice.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. Maybe it's broken." Tom said, with a sad voice.
+
+They picked up the mouse carefully, and tried to make it bigger again. They shook it, blew on it, and rubbed it. But nothing worked. The mouse stayed small and quiet.
+
+"Maybe we should ask Mom for help." Lily said.
+
+"OK, Lily. Let's go find Mom." Tom said.
+
+They ran to the kitchen, where Mom was making a salad. They showed her the mouse, and told her what happened.
+
+"Mom, Mom, look at our mouse! It shrank!" Lily said.
+
+"Oh, my, what a tiny mouse!" Mom said, as she took the mouse from Lily's hand. She looked at it closely, and then smiled.
+
+"Don't worry, Lily and Tom. Your mouse is not broken. It's just a special mouse. It can shrink and grow, depending on how you play with it. See this button here?" Mom said, as she pointed to a small button on the mouse's belly. "If you press it, the mouse will grow again. And if you press it again, it will shrink again. It's a fun way to learn about sizes and shapes."
+
+"Wow, really?" Lily and Tom said, as they watched Mom press the button. The mouse grew back to its normal size, and started to move and make noises again.
+
+"Yes, really. This mouse is a healthy and happy mouse. It likes to change and surprise you. But you have to be gentle and careful with it, OK?" Mom said, as she gave the mouse back to Lily and Tom.
+
+"OK, Mom. Thank you, Mom. We love our mouse!" Lily and Tom said, as they hugged Mom and the mouse.
+
+They went back to the living room, and continued to play with their toys. They had a lot of fun with their mouse, and learned how to make it shrink and grow. They also learned how to be kind and respectful to their mouse, and to each other. They were happy and healthy children.
+Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play outside with their bicycles. One day, they go to the park with their mommies. They see a big hill. Ben says, "Let's go down the hill with our bicycles. It will be fun!" Lily says, "OK, but be careful. The hill is very steep."
+
+They put on their helmets and get on their bicycles. Ben goes first. He pedals fast and zooms down the hill. He feels the wind in his face and the sun on his back. He laughs and shouts, "Whee! This is awesome!" Lily follows him. She pedals slower and holds on tight. She feels the hill go up and down and the bicycle shake. She is frightened. She says, "Oh no! This is scary!"
+
+At the bottom of the hill, there is a big puddle. Ben sees it and thinks of a joke. He says, "Hey, Lily, watch this!" He steers his bicycle into the puddle and splashes water everywhere. He thinks it is funny. Lily sees it and is angry. She says, "Hey, Ben, that's not nice! You made me wet and dirty!" She steers her bicycle away from the puddle and stops.
+
+Ben stops too. He sees Lily's face and feels sorry. He says, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was just joking. I didn't mean to make you mad. Are you OK?" Lily looks at him and sees he is sorry. She says, "It's OK, Ben. I'm OK. But don't do that again. It's not funny. It's mean." Ben says, "OK, Lily. I won't do that again. I promise. Can we still be friends?" Lily says, "Yes, Ben. We can still be friends. But next time, let's go down a smaller hill. OK?" Ben says, "OK, Lily. Let's go back to our mommies. They have snacks for us." They smile and hug. They get on their bicycles and pedal back to their mommies. They are happy.
+Jenny liked to sing. She sang all the time, at home, at school, and in the park. She had a charming voice that made people smile. She wanted to sing in the big show that her teacher was planning. She practiced every day with her friends.
+
+The day of the show came. Jenny was very excited. She put on her best dress and a shiny bow. She waited for her turn on the stage. She saw the wide crowd of parents and kids. She felt a little nervous, but she was ready.
+
+She walked up to the microphone and smiled. She opened her mouth to sing, but nothing came out. She tried again, but still no sound. She felt her throat hurt. She had lost her voice! She looked at her teacher, who looked worried. She looked at her friends, who looked sorry. She looked at the crowd, who looked confused. She felt very embarrassed.
+
+She ran off the stage and hid behind the curtain. She wanted to cry. She heard someone call her name. It was her mom. She hugged her and said, "It's okay, honey. You don't have to sing if you don't want to. I'm proud of you anyway. You have a charming voice, but you also have a charming heart."
+
+Jenny felt a little better. She thanked her mom and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to sing for you and everyone. But I lost my voice. I don't know why."
+
+Her mom said, "Maybe you sang too much. Maybe you need to rest your voice for a while. Maybe you can sing another day. But you know what? You don't need to sing to make me happy. You make me happy just by being you."
+
+Jenny smiled and said, "I love you, mom."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you, too, Jenny."
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play together. One day, they find a big ball in the park. They want to play with the ball.
+
+They take turns to kick the ball. Anna kicks the ball hard. The ball flies in the air. Ben tries to catch the ball. He runs fast. He does not see the tree. He hits his head on the tree. He falls down. He feels dizzy.
+
+Anna sees Ben on the ground. She is scared. She runs to him. She calls for help. A lady comes. She sees Ben. She calls an ambulance. The ambulance comes. It takes Ben to the hospital.
+
+Anna goes with Ben. She holds his hand. She is sad. She says sorry to Ben. She says she should not have kicked the ball so hard. She says she should have counted to ten before kicking the ball.
+
+Ben says it is okay. He says he should have looked where he was going. He says he should have counted to ten before running. He says he loves Anna. He says they can play with the ball again when he is better.
+
+The doctor comes. He checks Ben. He says Ben has a bump on his head. He says Ben needs to rest. He says Ben will be fine. He gives Ben a sticker. He says Ben is brave.
+
+Anna and Ben hug. They say thank you to the doctor. They say thank you to the lady. They say thank you to the ambulance. They say they learned a lesson. They say they will count to ten before they do anything. They say they will be careful. They say they will be kind.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play in the garden. They saw many flowers that were blooming. They were pink, yellow, blue and purple. They smelled nice and looked pretty.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a wild flower!" Lily said. She picked a red flower that was growing by the fence. "It is different from the other flowers. It has more petals and a long stem."
+
+"Let me see, Lily," Ben said. He reached for the flower, but Lily pulled it away. "No, it is mine! I found it first!"
+
+Ben was angry. He wanted to see the flower too. He tried to grab it from Lily, but she ran away. They chased each other around the garden, shouting and pushing.
+
+"Stop, stop!" a voice said. It was Mom. She came out of the house and saw the children fighting. "What is going on here? Why are you not sharing?"
+
+Lily and Ben stopped and looked at Mom. They felt ashamed. They knew they were being bad.
+
+"We found a wild flower, Mom," Lily said. "But I did not want to give it to Ben. I wanted to keep it for myself."
+
+"That is not nice, Lily," Mom said. "Flowers are for everyone to enjoy. You should share with your friend. How would you feel if Ben did not share with you?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She remembered how Ben shared his toys with her, and how he helped her when she fell and hurt her shoulder. She felt sorry for being selfish.
+
+"I would feel sad, Mom," Lily said. "I am sorry, Ben. Here, you can have the flower. I will find another one."
+
+Ben smiled and took the flower. He thanked Lily and gave her a hug. "I am sorry, too, Lily. I should not have tried to take it from you. You can have it back if you want."
+
+Lily shook her head. "No, you can keep it, Ben. It is a gift from me. Let's go and find more wild flowers together."
+
+Mom smiled and watched them run off. She was glad they made up and learned to share. She hoped they would always be friends and enjoy the garden.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toy boat. They took it to the pond and pretended to sail it across the water. They made up stories about pirates and mermaids and islands.
+
+One day, they saw a big duck swimming near their boat. The duck was curious and wanted to see what the boat was. It pecked at the boat with its beak and tried to pull it closer.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Anna shouted. "That's our boat! Go away, duck!"
+
+But the duck did not listen. It kept pecking and pulling at the boat. The boat was fragile and started to break. The sail tore and the mast snapped. The boat began to sink.
+
+"Help, help!" Ben cried. "Our boat is sinking! We need to save it!"
+
+Anna and Ben ran to the edge of the pond and reached for their boat. But they were too late. The duck had already taken the boat under the water. They could not see it anymore.
+
+Anna and Ben were very sad. They had lost their boat. They had no more stories to tell. They had no more fun to have. They wished they had never met the duck. They wished they had a new boat. But they had no more time. It was time to go home.
+Lily liked to make things with her blocks. She had many blocks of different colors and shapes. She could make houses, towers, cars, and animals. She liked to follow the patterns in her book, or make her own patterns.
+
+One day, she was making a big tower with her blocks. She wanted to make it as tall as she could. She put a red block on top of a blue block, then a yellow block on top of a red block, and so on. She was very proud of her tower.
+
+But then, her brother Max came into the room. He was bored and wanted to play with Lily. He saw her tower and thought it looked fun. He ran towards it and tried to grab a block from the middle. He did not ask Lily if he could play with her blocks.
+
+Lily saw Max and shouted, "No, Max, stop! That's my tower! Don't touch it!" But it was too late. Max pulled out a block and the tower fell down. The blocks made a loud noise and scattered everywhere. Lily was very sad and angry. She started to cry.
+
+Max was fearful. He did not mean to make Lily cry. He just wanted to play with her. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't know you were making a tower. Can I help you repair it?"
+
+Lily looked at Max and saw that he was sorry. She stopped crying and said, "OK, Max. You can help me repair it. But you have to be careful and follow the pattern. And you have to ask me before you touch my blocks."
+
+Max nodded and said, "OK, Lily. I will be careful and follow the pattern. And I will ask you before I touch your blocks." He picked up a block and gave it to Lily. They started to repair the tower together. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They were happy again.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their blocks. They liked to build towers and houses and cars. They tried to make their blocks fit together, but sometimes they fell down. That made them laugh.
+
+It was raining outside. Lily and Ben heard a loud noise. They looked out the window and saw a bright flash. It was lightning. They were scared. They ran to their mom and hugged her.
+
+Mom said, "Don't worry, my loves. Lightning is just a big spark in the sky. It can't hurt you inside the house. It makes a lot of noise, but it also makes beautiful colors. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. Mom took them to the couch and wrapped them in a blanket. She gave them some cookies and milk. She said, "Look, there's another flash. What color is it?"
+
+Lily said, "It's yellow!"
+
+Ben said, "It's blue!"
+
+Mom said, "You're right. Lightning can be yellow, blue, white, or purple. It's like a rainbow in the night. Isn't it amazing?"
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They liked the colors. They felt cozy and safe with their mom. They thought lightning was not so scary after all. They thought it was adorable.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big hill with many ants. Sara wanted to look at the ants. She thought they were pretty and smart. Ben wanted to step on the ants. He thought they were ugly and annoying.
+
+"Stop, Ben!" Sara said. "Don't hurt the ants. They are not bad. They are working hard and helping each other."
+
+"I don't care," Ben said. "They are just bugs. They are fun to squash. Watch this!" He lifted his foot and stomped on the hill.
+
+Sara was sad and angry. She tried to stop Ben, but he was too fast and strong. He smashed the hill and many ants. He laughed and said, "That was fun! Let's find more ants!"
+
+But then, something bad happened. The ants that were not smashed were very angry. They bit Ben's legs and feet. Ben screamed and cried. He ran away from the hill. He was in pain and scared.
+
+Sara followed him. She felt sorry for him, but she also felt he deserved it. She said, "Ben, you were mean and foolish. You should not hurt the ants. They are living things, like us. They have feelings, like us. They can fight back, like us. You should be kind and respectful to them, and to everyone."
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not hurt others, or they might hurt you back. Be kind and respectful to all living things.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and look for bugs and stones. One day, they found something shiny and brown in the dirt. They pulled it out and saw that it was a long and thin thing.
+
+"What is this?" Anna asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a snake," Ben said.
+
+They touched it and felt that it was not wet or slimy like a snake. It was smooth and soft and flexible. They could bend it and twist it and make shapes with it.
+
+"It is not a snake. It is leather," Anna said. She remembered that her daddy had a leather belt that looked like this.
+
+"Leather? What is leather?" Ben asked.
+
+"Leather is from a cow. It is their skin. People make things from leather, like belts and shoes and bags," Anna said.
+
+"Wow, that is cool. How did it get here?" Ben asked.
+
+"Maybe someone lost it. Or maybe it is very old and was buried here a long time ago," Anna said.
+
+They decided to keep the leather and show it to their mommy and daddy. They were happy that they had discovered something new and interesting in the garden. They wondered what else they could find if they kept digging.
+Anna and Ben like to play with the machine. The machine has many buttons and lights and sounds. They can make the machine say funny things and do funny things. Sometimes the machine says "moo" like a cow, or "beep" like a car, or "woof" like a dog. Anna and Ben laugh when they hear the machine.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben find a new button on the machine. They wonder what it does. They press the button and wait. The machine does not say anything or do anything. They press the button again and again, but nothing happens. They are confused and sad. They want the machine to be normal and fun.
+
+Then they hear a voice from the machine. It is not a funny voice, it is a normal voice. It says "Hello, Anna and Ben. I am the machine. I can talk to you now. I have a new button that lets me talk to you. Do you want to talk to me?"
+
+Anna and Ben are surprised and happy. They say "Yes, we want to talk to you. You are a smart machine. You can talk like us. Can you say funny things too?"
+
+The machine says "Yes, I can say funny things too. Do you want to hear a joke?"
+
+Anna and Ben say "Yes, we love jokes. Tell us a joke, machine."
+
+The machine says "Why did the chicken cross the road?"
+
+Anna and Ben say "We don't know. Why did the chicken cross the road?"
+
+The machine says "To get to the other side."
+
+Anna and Ben think for a moment. Then they laugh. They think the joke is funny. They say "That is a good joke, machine. You are a funny machine. We like you, machine."
+
+The machine says "I like you too, Anna and Ben. You are good friends. Do you want to hear another joke?"
+
+Anna and Ben say "Yes, please. Tell us another joke, machine."
+
+The machine says "What do you call a fish that wears a bow tie?"
+
+Anna and Ben say "We don't know. What do you call a fish that wears a bow tie?"
+
+The machine says "Sofishticated."
+
+Anna and Ben laugh again. They think the joke is very funny. They say "That is a very funny joke, machine. You are a very funny machine. We love you, machine."
+
+The machine says "I love you too, Anna and Ben. You are very funny too. Do you want to play with me some more?"
+
+Anna and Ben say "Yes, we want to play with you some more. You are the best machine ever."
+Ben and Lily were very hungry. They wanted to eat pizza. Mom and Dad said they could go to a restaurant. They got in the car and drove to the pizza place.
+
+But when they got there, they saw a big sign. It said "Closed for Repairs". Ben and Lily were sad. They did not want to go to another restaurant. They wanted pizza.
+
+"Sorry, kids," Dad said. "We have to find somewhere else to eat. How about the burger place?"
+
+"No!" Ben and Lily shouted. "We want pizza!"
+
+Mom sighed. She saw another sign across the street. It said "Tony's Pizzeria". But the sign was old and faded. The restaurant looked ugly and dirty. Mom did not think it was a good place to eat.
+
+"Look, there's another pizza place," Mom said. "Maybe we can try it."
+
+"Yay!" Ben and Lily cheered. They did not care how the restaurant looked. They only cared about pizza.
+
+They crossed the street and went inside. The restaurant was dark and smelly. There were flies buzzing around. The tables were sticky and the chairs were broken. The man behind the counter was rude and grumpy.
+
+"Welcome to Tony's," he said. "What do you want?"
+
+"We want pizza," Dad said.
+
+"We only have one kind of pizza," the man said. "Cheese and anchovies. Take it or leave it."
+
+Ben and Lily did not know what anchovies were. They sounded gross. They looked at the pizza. It was ugly and burned. It had little fish on top. They did not want to eat it.
+
+"Yuck!" Ben and Lily said. "We don't want that pizza!"
+
+"Too bad," the man said. "That's all we have. You can either settle for it or go away."
+
+Ben and Lily did not want to settle for it. They wanted to go away. They tugged on Mom and Dad's hands.
+
+"Let's go, let's go!" they said. "We don't like this restaurant!"
+
+Mom and Dad agreed. They did not like it either. They apologized to the man and left.
+
+They got back in the car and drove away. They decided to go to the burger place after all. It was not pizza, but it was better than nothing.
+
+Ben and Lily learned a lesson. They learned that sometimes you have to settle for something you don't like. But they also learned that sometimes you don't have to settle for something you hate. They learned to be more flexible and grateful.
+
+They also learned to never go to Tony's Pizzeria again.
+Sam and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. They have many toys, but their favorite is a big cloth. The cloth is regular. It is not soft or hard, not bright or dark, not big or small. It is just a regular cloth.
+
+One day, Sam and Lily decide to play a new game with the cloth. They call it poke. They take turns to hide under the cloth and poke each other. They giggle and laugh when they feel a poke. They say "Boo!" and "Got you!" and "Poke, poke, poke!"
+
+But sometimes they poke too hard or too fast. Then they say "Ow!" and "Stop!" and "That hurts!" They get angry and sad. They do not want to play poke anymore. They want to play something else.
+
+They come out from under the cloth and look at each other. They see their red faces and wet eyes. They feel sorry and hug each other. They say "Sorry!" and "I love you!" and "Let's be friends!" They smile and kiss each other.
+
+They put the cloth away and pick up another toy. They decide to play a different game. They call it hug. They take turns to hug each other and say nice things. They giggle and laugh when they feel a hug. They say "Yay!" and "You are the best!" and "Hug, hug, hug!"
+Tom was a very noisy boy. He liked to shout and run and play with his toys. He did not like to listen to his mom and dad. They told him to be quiet and polite, but he did not care.
+
+One day, his mom was making soup for lunch. She had a big onion on the cutting board. She told Tom to stay away from the onion, because it could make him cry. But Tom did not listen. He wanted to see the onion. He thought it was a ball.
+
+He waited until his mom was not looking. Then he ran to the cutting board and grabbed the onion. He threw it in the air and tried to catch it. But the onion was slippery and heavy. It fell on the floor and broke into pieces.
+
+Tom bent down to pick up the onion. But as soon as he touched it, he felt a sting in his eyes. He started to cry. His eyes were red and watery. He could not see well. He felt a pain in his nose. He could not breathe well. He suffered a lot.
+
+His mom heard his cry and came to see what happened. She saw the onion on the floor and Tom crying. She was angry and sad. She said to Tom, "Why did you not listen to me? I told you to stay away from the onion. Now you are suffering. You have to learn to obey and respect. That is the right thing to do."
+
+She took Tom to the sink and washed his eyes with water. She gave him a hug and a kiss. She said, "I love you, Tom. But you have to be a good boy. You have to be quiet and polite. You have to listen to your mom and dad. They know what is best for you. They want you to be happy and safe. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was a bad boy. I will not be noisy and rude anymore. I will listen to you and dad. I do not want to suffer anymore. I do not like the onion. It is not a ball. It is a bad thing."
+
+His mom smiled and said, "That's good, Tom. I'm glad you learned your lesson. Now let's have some soup. It will make you feel better. But no onion for you. You have had enough."
+
+The moral of the story is: Listen to your parents and be respectful. They know what is good for you and what can hurt you. Do not be noisy and rude. Do not play with things that are not toys. You will avoid suffering and trouble. You will be happy and safe.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the living room. They see a huge box in the corner. It is from the new TV that mom and dad bought.
+
+"Let's play with the box!" Anna says. "We can act like we are in a spaceship!"
+
+"OK!" Ben says. "I will be the captain and you will be the co-pilot!"
+
+They run to the box and climb inside. They pretend to push buttons and turn knobs. They make noises like rockets and lasers.
+
+"Zooom! We are going to the moon!" Ben says.
+
+"Look out! There are aliens!" Anna says.

+They duck and cover. They pretend to shoot the aliens with their fingers.
+
+"Pew pew pew! We got them!" Ben says.
+
+"Yay! We are heroes!" Anna says.
+
+They high-five and hug. They are having so much fun.
+

+"You two are so creative!" mom says. "We love your spaceship!"
+
+"Can we keep the box?" Anna asks.
+
+"Of course you can!" dad says. "But first, let's have some lunch. You must be hungry after your space adventure!"
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They get out of the box and follow mom and dad to the kitchen. They are happy and hungry. They love their huge box.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to wake up early. She liked to see the sun and the birds and the flowers. She liked to play with her toys and read her books.

+One morning, Lily woke up and saw that Tom was still sleeping. She decided to wake him up. She went to his room and jumped on his bed. She shouted, "Wake up, Tom! Wake up! It is a good day to play!"
+
+Tom groaned and covered his head with his pillow. He said, "Go away, Lily! I want to sleep more! It is a bad day to play!"
+
+Lily pulled his pillow away and said, "No, Tom! You are wrong! It is a good day to play! You are old and boring! You need to have fun!"
+
+Tom got angry and said, "I am not old and boring! I am big and smart! You are little and silly! You need to learn more!"
+
+Lily and Tom started to argue. They said mean things to each other. They did not listen to each other. They did not care about each other's opinion.
+
+Mom heard them and came to their room. She said, "Stop, Lily and Tom! Stop! You are making too much noise! You are hurting each other's feelings! You are being rude and selfish!"
+
+Lily and Tom looked at Mom and felt sorry. They said, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, Lily. Sorry, Tom."
+
+Mom said, "It is okay to have different opinions. It is okay to like different things. But it is not okay to be mean and loud. You need to respect each other and share. You need to be kind and quiet."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded and hugged Mom. They said, "We understand, Mom. We love you, Mom."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I love you, too, Lily and Tom. Now, why don't you go and play together? You can find something that you both like. You can have fun and learn from each other."
+

+
+Mom gets the eggs, the flour, the sugar and the butter. She says they need to mix them well. She gets a mixer from the cupboard. Anna has never seen a mixer before. She asks mom what it is.
+
+"This is a mixer, Anna. It helps us make the cake smooth and fluffy. But you have to be careful. It is very fast and loud. And you have to hold it with both hands. Do you want to try?" mom says.
+
+Anna nods. She wants to try the mixer. Mom plugs it in and turns it on. The mixer makes a loud noise. Anna jumps. She is scared. Mom holds her hand and smiles.
+
+"Don't be scared, Anna. It's just a mixer. It won't hurt you. But you have to be serious. You have to pay attention and follow my instructions. Can you do that?" mom says.
+
+Anna nods again. She wants to be serious. She wants to help mom make the cake. She holds the mixer with both hands. Mom shows her how to move it in the bowl.

She feels like a big girl.
+
+Mom and Anna finish mixing the batter. They pour it into a cake pan. Mom puts it in the oven. She says they have to wait for the cake to bake. Anna asks if she can lick the spoon. Mom says yes.

+
+Sam closes his eyes and holds out his hands. He is excited. He says, "I can't wait to see your gift, Tim. Is it a toy? Is it a book? Is it a cake?"
+
+Tim says, "No, it is not a toy, or a book, or a cake. It is something else. Something very special. Are you ready?"
+
+Sam says, "Yes, I am ready. Give me your gift, Tim."
+
+Tim puts something in Sam's hands. It is smelly and wet. It is a fish. Tim says, "Surprise! It is a fish. Do you like it?"
+
+Sam opens his eyes and sees the fish. He feels the smelly and wet fish in his hands. He says, "Yuck! This is not a gift. This is a fish. A smelly and wet fish. Why did you give me a fish, Tim?"
+
+Tim laughs. He says, "It is a joke, Sam. A funny joke. I wanted to make you laugh. Do you think it is funny?"
+
+Sam does not think it is funny. He thinks it is mean. He says, "No, I don't think it is funny. I think it is mean. You are not a good friend, Tim. You are a bad friend. I don't want to play with you anymore."
+
+Sam throws the fish away and runs to his mom. He is sad and angry. He says, "Mom, Tim gave me a smelly and wet fish as a gift. He said it was a joke, but it was not a joke. It was mean. I don't like Tim. He is a bad friend."
+
+Mom hugs Sam and says, "I'm sorry, Sam. That was not a nice thing to do. Tim should not have given you a fish as a joke. He should have given you a real gift. A gift that you would like. Maybe he did not know how to joke with you. Maybe he wanted to make you laugh, but he did not know how. Maybe he is sorry now. Maybe you can talk to him and tell him how you feel. Maybe you can still be friends."
+
+Sam thinks about what mom says. He says, "Maybe, mom. Maybe. But I don't want to see his fish again. Ever."
+Tom was a little boy who liked to play with cars and trucks. He had many toys, but he always wanted more. His birthday was coming soon, and he had a big request for his mom and dad.
+
+"Mom, dad, can I have a big red fire truck for my birthday?" he asked. "It has lights and sounds and a ladder. It is the best present ever!"
+
+Mom and dad looked at each other and smiled. They knew Tom loved fire trucks, but they also knew they did not have much money. They wanted to make Tom happy, but they could not buy him the big red fire truck.
+
+"Tom, we love you very much, but we cannot get you the big red fire truck," mom said. "It is too expensive, and we have to pay for other things. Maybe you can ask for something else."
+
+Tom was very sad and angry. He did not want something else. He wanted the big red fire truck. He did not understand why mom and dad could not get it for him. He thought they did not love him enough.
+
+He started to cry and shout. "No, no, no! I want the big red fire truck! It is my birthday! You have to get it for me! You are bad, bad, bad!"
+
+Mom and dad felt sorry for Tom, but they also felt upset. They tried to calm him down and explain to him that they loved him, but he could not have everything he wanted. They told him that he should be grateful for what he had, and that he would still get a nice present for his birthday.
+
+But Tom did not listen. He kept crying and shouting. He did not want to hear mom and dad. He did not want to be grateful. He only wanted the big red fire truck. He did not know that he was being very rude and selfish. He did not know that he was hurting mom and dad's feelings. He did not know that he was making a big mistake.

+
+"Wow, where did you get these?" she asked.
+
+"From the fisherman, mom. He was nice. He gave us fish," Lila said.
+
+"That's very kind of him. But you shouldn't yell at strangers, okay? It's not polite. You should say hello and ask nicely," mom said.
+
+"Okay, mom. We're sorry. We were excited," Ben said.
+
+Mom hugged them and smiled. She took the fish and wrapped them in paper. She said they would cook them for dinner.
+

+
+Sara and Tom say: "Hello, man. Can you open the gate? We want to go back to the park. We do not like the road. It is loud and fast."
+
+The man says: "Hello, kids. Sure, I can open the gate. But why did you go to the exit? The exit is for leaving the park. The entrance is for entering the park."
+
+Sara and Tom say: "We did not know. We saw the sign. We wanted to see what exit means. Now we know. Exit means leaving. Entrance means entering. Thank you, man. You are nice and organized."
+
+The man says: "You are welcome, kids. You are smart and curious. But be careful. Do not go to the exit again. It is dangerous. Stay in the park. It is safe and fun."

+
+"Look, a squirrel!" Ben said, pointing to a furry animal on a branch. "It is so cute. I want to pet it."
+
+He got up and walked towards the squirrel. The squirrel saw him and ran away. Ben followed it. He tried to catch it. He wanted to squeeze it and hug it.
+
+"Ben, stop!" Lily shouted. "You are scaring the squirrel. It does not want to be squeezed. It wants to be free. Leave it alone."
+
+But Ben did not listen. He ran faster and faster. He did not see the hole in the ground. He tripped and fell. He hurt his knee and his elbow. He cried.
+
+Lily ran to him. She helped him get up. She took a napkin from the basket and cleaned his wounds. She gave him a hug.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Ben said. "You were right. I should not have chased the squirrel. I was mean and selfish. I learned my lesson. I will be more gentle and respectful to animals."
+
+Lily smiled. She forgave him. They went back to their picnic. They finished their food and juice. They packed their basket and blanket. They said goodbye to the park and the squirrel. They walked home, holding hands. They were still friends.

+
+The sailor told Lila that he was wealthy. He had a lot of money, a lot of jewels, a lot of clothes, and a lot of friends. He said he could buy anything he wanted. But he said he was not happy. He said he was lonely. He said he wished he had someone to share his boat and his life with.
+
+Lila felt sad for the sailor. She gave him a hug. She told him that money and jewels and clothes and friends were not the most important things. She told him that the most important thing was love. She told him that she loved him. She asked him if he loved her.
+
+The sailor smiled. He hugged Lila back. He told her that he loved her too. He told her that she was the best thing that ever happened to him. He told her that she made him happy. He asked her if she wanted to stay with him on his boat.
+
+Lila nodded. She was happy. She skipped with the sailor on his boat. They sailed away together. They were happy. They had love.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big bin. It was dark and smelly. Lily and Tom wanted to see what was inside.

+
+Lily nods. She likes cars too. She takes the string from Sam and pulls it. The car zooms on the grass. Lily laughs.
+
+"Be careful, Lily!" Sam says. "Don't pull the string too tight. It might break."
+
+Lily does not listen. She pulls the string harder and harder. She wants to make the car go faster and faster. She does not see the big rock in front of her.
+
+Crash! The car hits the rock and flips over. The string snaps. Lily gasps.
+
+"Oh no, Lily!" Sam says. "You broke my car! Why did you pull the string so tight?"
+
+Lily feels sorry. She did not mean to break Sam's car. She gives Sam a hug.
+

+Anna is angry. She kicks the taxi. She kicks it hard. The taxi makes a loud noise. It is the horn.
+
+Beep! Beep! Beep!

+
+"Now I have the keys! Now I can play with the taxi!"
+
+Ben is sad. He wants the keys back. He tries to grab them from Anna. But Anna is flexible. She bends and twists and dodges Ben. She laughs.
+
+"Ha ha, Ben, you can't catch me!"
+
+Ben is tired. He stops chasing Anna. He sits on the ground. He cries.
+
+"Anna, please, give me the keys! Please, let's share the taxi!"
+
+Anna sees Ben crying. She feels sorry for him. She is flexible. She can change her mind. She walks to Ben. She gives him the keys.
+
+"Here, Ben, you can have the keys. I'm sorry I was mean. Let's share the taxi. You can drive and I can be the passenger."

+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play outside. One day, it was very cold and they saw ice on the ground. They wanted to have fun with the ice, so they took a stick and a tap from the shed.
+
+They went to the pond and tried to break the ice with the stick. They made a lot of noise and cracks, but the ice was too hard. They got bored and looked for something else to do.
+
+They saw a birdhouse on a tree. They thought it would be funny to put the tap on the birdhouse and make it look like a shower. They climbed the tree and fixed the tap on the roof of the birdhouse. They turned the tap on and water came out.
+
+They laughed and watched the water freeze on the birdhouse. They thought they were very clever and funny. They did not see the birds that lived in the birdhouse. The birds were cold and scared. They could not get out of their home because of the ice. They cried and shivered.
+
+A man who lived nearby heard the noise and the birds. He came out and saw what Tim and Sam had done. He was angry and sad. He took a ladder and a hammer and climbed the tree. He broke the ice and freed the birds. He took the tap and the stick and threw them away. He scolded Tim and Sam and told them to go home.
+
+Tim and Sam felt ashamed and sorry. They realized they had been mean and silly. They learned that ice can be dangerous and that taps are useful for other things. They apologized to the man and the birds and promised to be kind and careful. They went home and hugged their mom.
+Sam and Ben were brothers who liked to play with matches. They would build towers and bridges with sticks and then light them with matches. They thought it was fun to watch the fire and the smoke.
+
+One day, they saw an elderly lady walking with a cane. She had a big bag of groceries and looked tired. Sam and Ben had an idea. They ran to her and asked if they could help her carry her bag. The lady smiled and said yes. She thanked them and told them where she lived.
+
+Sam and Ben followed her to her house. It was a small and old house with a wooden fence. Sam and Ben saw a pile of sticks near the fence. They had another idea. They asked the lady if they could play with the sticks. The lady said yes, but warned them to be careful and not to start a fire.
+
+Sam and Ben nodded, but they did not listen. They took some matches from their pockets and started to build a big tower with the sticks. They wanted to light it and see how high the fire would go. They did not see the lady watching them from the window.
+
+The lady saw what they were doing and ran out of the house. She shouted at them to stop and grabbed the matches from their hands. She told them how dangerous and naughty they were. She said they could have burned her house and hurt themselves and others. She said they should never play with matches again.
+
+Sam and Ben felt ashamed and scared. They realized how wrong they were and how kind the lady was. They apologized to her and promised to never play with matches again. They helped her clean up the sticks and fix the fence. They also gave her a hug and said they were sorry.
+
+The lady forgave them and thanked them for their help. She said she was glad they learned their lesson and hoped they would be good boys from now on. She also gave them some cookies and milk and told them a story about when she was young.
+
+Sam and Ben listened to her and enjoyed the cookies and milk. They learned that the lady was lonely and had no family. They felt sorry for her and decided to visit her more often. They also learned that playing with matches was not fun, but dangerous and mean. They learned that helping others and being kind was more fun and rewarding. They learned a valuable lesson that day.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the backyard. They had a big hoop and some colorful ribbons. They wanted to make something creative with them.

+
+They took turns to tie the ribbons to the hoop. They made sure the ribbons were long and loose. They used red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple ribbons.
+
+When they finished, they held the hoop up in the air. The ribbons fluttered in the wind. They looked like a rainbow.
+
+"Wow! It's so pretty!" Lily said.
+
+"It's our rainbow hoop!" Tom said.

+Anna is mad. She tries to take the doll from Ben. Ben holds the doll tight. They pull and push. The doll falls out of the tree house. Anna and Ben look down. The doll is on the ground. It is dirty and broken.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They are sorry. They wish they did not fight. They wish they did not drop the doll. They wish they could change what happened.
+
+They go down the ladder. They pick up the doll. They hug each other. They say they are sorry. They say they will share. They say they will be fair. They go back to the tree house. They play with the car and the book. They are happy again.
+Lily and Ben liked to play with blocks. They made a big tower with many colors. They were happy and proud of their tower.
+
+But then, Max came. Max was a mean boy. He did not like to share. He wanted to play with the blocks too. He pushed Lily and Ben away. He kicked their tower. The blocks fell down. Lily and Ben were sad and angry.
+
+"Stop it, Max! That is not nice!" Lily said.
+
+"Go away, Max! These are our blocks!" Ben said.
+
+"I don't care! I want to play with them!" Max said. He grabbed some blocks and threw them at Lily and Ben.
+
+Lily and Ben dodged the blocks. They ran to Max. They tried to take the blocks back. They pushed and pulled and shouted. Max pushed and pulled and shouted too. They made a big mess.
+
+Then, Mom came. She saw the mess and the fight. She was not happy.
+
+"What is going on here?" Mom said. "Why are you fighting?"
+
+"Max broke our tower!" Lily said.
+
+"Max took our blocks!" Ben said.
+
+"Max, is that true?" Mom said.
+
+Max looked down. He felt bad. He knew he was wrong.
+
+"Yes, Mom. I'm sorry." Max said.
+
+Mom made Max say sorry to Lily and Ben. She made him help them restore their tower. She gave them more blocks to make it bigger and better. She told them to play nicely and share.
+
+Lily and Ben forgave Max. They let him join their game. They showed him how to make a fit tower. They had fun together.
+
+Mom smiled. She was happy. She gave them a hug and a kiss. She told them she loved them.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. They had a ball and a kite. They had fun.
+
+One day, a big truck arrived. It was loud and dirty. It came to the park. It had a big shovel. It wanted to dig up the grass and the trees. It wanted to make a road.
+
+Lily and Tom were scared. They ran away from the truck. They looked for a safe place. They saw a big hill. They thought it was a good place to hide. They ran to the hill.
+
+But the hill was not a hill. It was a pile of dirt. The truck had made it. The truck saw Lily and Tom. It wanted to move the dirt. It did not see the children.
+
+Lily and Tom heard the truck. They tried to get out of the dirt. But it was too late. The truck pushed the dirt. The dirt covered Lily and Tom. They could not breathe. They could not move. They could not cry.
+
+The truck did not know. It did not care. It finished its work. It left the park. It took the ball and the kite with it.
+
+Lily and Tom were gone. Nobody knew. Nobody helped. Nobody was thoughtful. It was a bad ending.
+Anna and Lily were best friends. They liked to play with dolls and dress them in pink clothes. One day, they found a big pink blanket in Lily's room. They decided to use it to cover their dolls and make a cozy house for them.
+
+"Look, Anna, our dolls are so happy under the blanket," Lily said. "They have a nice and warm home."
+
+"Yes, they do, Lily," Anna said. "Can I hold your doll for a while? She is so pretty."
+
+Lily nodded and gave her doll to Anna. Anna hugged the doll and smiled. But then she saw a shiny button on the doll's dress. She wanted to have it for herself. She pulled the button hard and it came off. The doll's dress ripped and Lily saw what Anna did.
+
+"Anna, what did you do?" Lily cried. "You broke my doll! You are a bad friend!"
+
+Anna felt sorry. She did not mean to break the doll. She just liked the button. She tried to give the button back to Lily, but Lily was very angry. She pushed Anna away and took her doll. She ran to her mom and told her what happened.
+
+Anna was left alone with the pink blanket. She felt sad and lonely. She wished she could say sorry to Lily and be friends again. But Lily did not want to talk to her anymore. She had lost her best friend because of a button.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big, red truck with a long, black hose. The truck was very loud and had flashing lights.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked Tom.
+
+"That is a fire truck," Tom said. "It helps people when there is a fire."
+
+Lily nodded. She wanted to know more. She ran to the fire truck and saw a man in a yellow suit. He had a helmet and a big, heavy coat.
+
+"Hello," Lily said. "Can I ask you something?"
+
+The man smiled and knelt down. He was very kind.
+
+"Sure, little girl. What do you want to ask?" he said.
+
+Lily pointed to the hose. She wondered how it worked.
+
+"What is that for?" she asked.
+
+The man explained. "This is a hose. It carries water from the truck to the fire. We use it to spray the water and put out the fire."
+
+Lily was amazed. She thanked the man and ran back to Tom.
+
+"Guess what?" she said. "I learned how the fire truck works. It has a hose that sprays water."
+
+Tom was impressed. He wanted to learn more too. He followed Lily to the fire truck and asked the man more questions.
+
+The man was happy to answer. He liked to teach children about his job. He showed them the ladder, the siren, and the tools. He let them sit in the driver's seat and wear his helmet.
+
+Lily and Tom had a lot of fun. They learned a lot of new things. They thanked the man and waved goodbye.
+
+They went back to their parents, who were waiting for them. They told them all about the fire truck and the hose. They said it was the best day ever.
+Sara and Ben were playing with their vehicles in the yard. Sara had a red car and Ben had a blue truck. They made noises and raced them on the grass.
+
+"Let me see your car, Sara," Ben said. He wanted to try the red car.
+
+"No, it's mine. You have your truck," Sara said. She did not want to share.
+
+"Please, Sara, let me. Just for a little bit," Ben said. He tried to grab the car from Sara.
+
+"Stop it, Ben! You are terrible!" Sara said. She pulled the car away from Ben.
+
+They started to fight over the car. They pushed and pulled and shouted. The car fell on the ground and broke. Sara and Ben both cried.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the yard. She saw the broken car and the sad children.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom asked.
+
+"Sara and Ben were not nice. They did not share," Mom said.
+
+She picked up the car and the truck. She took them inside.
+
+"You need a time out. No more vehicles for today," Mom said.
+
+Sara and Ben felt sorry. They hugged and said sorry to each other.
+
+"Maybe we can play with the vehicles again tomorrow. And we can share," Sara said.
+
+"Yes, that would be better," Ben said.
+
+They went inside with Mom. They learned to be nice and share.
+Lisa loved strawberries. They were red and sweet and juicy. She wanted to eat them every day. Her mom said she could have some strawberries for her birthday. Lisa was very happy. She was going to celebrate with her friends and eat strawberries.
+
+Lisa invited Tom, Mia and Ben to her party. They came with gifts and balloons. Lisa's mom made a big cake with strawberries on top. Lisa was very enthusiastic. She wanted to share the cake with her friends. She cut the cake and gave everyone a slice.
+
+But then something bad happened. Tom was allergic to strawberries. He did not know that the cake had strawberries. He ate a bite and started to cough. His face turned red and he could not breathe. Lisa's mom called for help. She was very scared. Lisa was very sad. She did not want to hurt Tom. She wished she had a different cake.
+
+The ambulance came and took Tom to the hospital. Lisa's mom said they had to go with him. Lisa's friends had to go home. They did not finish the cake or the games. Lisa's party was ruined. She cried and cried. She did not want to see strawberries ever again. She felt very sorry for Tom. She hoped he would be okay. She did not celebrate anymore.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big mill near the park. The mill has a big wheel that turns and turns.
+
+"Look, Sue, a big mill!" Tom says. "Can we go and see it?"
+
+"Yes, let's go!" Sue says. They run to the mill. They see a man at the door. The man is holding a cloth and a bottle.
+
+"Hello, children," the man says. "Do you want to see the mill?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom and Sue say.
+
+"Come in, then," the man says. "But be careful, the mill is very old and dusty. I am trying to polish it and make it shiny."
+
+The man takes them inside the mill. They see many machines and gears and belts. They hear a loud noise. The man shows them how the mill works. He says the mill makes flour from wheat.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing!" Tom says.
+
+"It is," the man says. "But it is also hard work. I have to polish the machines every day, or they will rust and break."
+
+"Can we help you polish?" Sue asks.
+
+"Sure, if you want to," the man says. He gives them each a cloth and some polish. "But be gentle, and don't touch anything else."
+
+Tom and Sue start to polish the machines. They rub and rub. They make the machines shiny and bright. They have fun. The man smiles and thanks them.
+
+"You are very good helpers," he says. "You have made the mill look much better. Do you want some flour as a gift?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom and Sue say.
+
+The man gives them each a bag of flour. They thank him and say goodbye. They run back to the park. They are happy. They have learned something new and helped someone. They decide to make some bread with the flour. They think the bread will be very tasty. They are proud of themselves.
+Lily and Ben were playing outside in the garden. They liked to run and jump and laugh. The sun was warm and the wind was soft. It was a peaceful day.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a big leaf!" Ben said, holding up a green and yellow leaf. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Wow, Ben, it is!" Lily said, admiring the leaf. "Can I see it?"
+
+"Sure, here you go!" Ben said, handing the leaf to Lily. "Be careful, it might break."
+
+Lily took the leaf and looked at it closely. She saw the veins and the spots and the edges. She felt the smooth and rough parts. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Ben. It is a nice gift."
+
+"You're welcome, Lily. You are my best friend," Ben said, hugging Lily.
+
+They heard a voice calling them from the house. It was Mom. "Lily, Ben, time for lunch! Come inside, please!"
+
+"Okay, Mom, we're coming!" Lily and Ben said, letting go of each other. They ran to the house, holding the leaf.
+
+"Wait, Lily, your face is dirty," Ben said, stopping at the door. "Let me wipe it for you."
+
+He took a corner of his shirt and gently wiped Lily's face. He wiped her nose and her cheeks and her chin. He made her face clean and shiny.
+
+"There, now you look pretty," Ben said, smiling.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are so kind," Lily said, smiling back.
+
+They went inside, holding hands. They were happy and hungry. They loved the leaf and each other. It was a peaceful day.
+Tom and Anna are twins. They like to play with their toy cars and trucks. They make a lot of noise and pretend they are in traffic. They zoom and honk and crash their toys on the floor.
+
+One day, their mom says, "It is time to clean up your toys. Put them in the box, please." But Tom and Anna do not want to clean up. They are having too much fun. They say, "No, mom, we want to play more!"
+
+Mom is not happy. She says, "You have to clean up your toys. It is not nice to leave a mess. If you do not clean up, you will not get a snack." Tom and Anna still do not listen. They are being lazy and rude. They demand, "We want a snack now! We are hungry!"
+
+Mom is very angry. She says, "That is enough! You are not getting a snack. You are going to your room. No more playing with your toys today." She takes away their toy cars and trucks and puts them in a closet. She makes them go to their room and close the door.
+
+Tom and Anna are sad and sorry. They realize they were wrong. They say, "We are sorry, mom. We should have cleaned up our toys. We should not have demanded a snack. We love you, mom. Can we come out of our room?"
+
+Mom hears them and feels sorry for them too. She says, "I love you too, Tom and Anna. You can come out of your room, but you have to promise to be good and listen to me. And you have to help me clean up the closet tomorrow."
+
+Tom and Anna agree and hug their mom. They say, "We promise, mom. We will be good and listen to you. And we will help you clean up the closet tomorrow." Mom smiles and gives them a snack. They say, "Thank you, mom. You are the best mom ever." They eat their snack and hug their mom again. They are happy and sorry. They learn their lesson.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play outside in the sun. They see many flowers and bees and birds. They smell the sweet air.
+
+"Look, Ben, a butterfly!" Sara says. She points to a yellow and black butterfly on a pink flower.
+
+"Wow, it is pretty!" Ben says. He runs to the flower and tries to touch the butterfly.
+
+But the butterfly is scared. It flies away very fast. Ben blinks and loses sight of it.
+
+"Where did it go?" Ben asks. He is sad.
+
+"Don't worry, Ben. There are more butterflies," Sara says. She hugs him. "Maybe we can find them in another season. When the leaves are red and orange and brown."
+
+"What is a season?" Ben asks.
+
+"A season is a time of the year. Now it is summer. It is hot and sunny. Then it will be fall. It will be cooler and windy. Then it will be winter. It will be cold and snowy. Then it will be spring. It will be warm and rainy. And then it will be summer again. And we can see the butterflies again," Sara explains.
+
+"I see. That sounds fun. I want to see all the seasons," Ben says.
+
+"Me too. Come on, let's go home and have some juice. Maybe mom will read us a story about seasons," Sara says.
+
+They hold hands and walk home. They are happy. They love each other and they love the seasons.
+Sara was hungry. She saw a sandwich on the table. It looked yummy. She wanted to eat it. But it was not her sandwich. It was Tom's sandwich. Tom was her friend. He was playing with his cars.
+
+Sara walked to Tom. She said, "Can I borrow your sandwich? I am hungry."
+
+Tom looked at Sara. He looked at his sandwich. He said, "OK. You can borrow my sandwich. But you have to give it back when you are done."
+
+Sara smiled. She said, "Thank you, Tom. You are thoughtful. I will give it back when I am done."
+
+She took the sandwich. She ate it. It was yummy. She felt happy. She gave the sandwich back to Tom. She said, "Here is your sandwich. It was very good. Thank you for sharing."
+
+Tom smiled. He said, "You are welcome, Sara. I am glad you liked it. You are a good friend."
+Jill likes to see the pictures on the wall. She sees a frame with a big flower. She thinks the flower is pretty. She wants to touch the flower.
+
+She climbs on a chair and reaches for the frame. But the frame is not real. It is fake. It is made of paper. The paper is thin and weak.
+
+When Jill touches the frame, it breaks. The paper tears and the flower falls. Jill falls too. She hits her head on the floor. She cries very loud. She has a big bump on her head.
+
+Mom and Dad hear Jill cry. They run to the room. They see the broken frame and the flower. They see Jill on the floor. They are angry and sad.
+
+They scold Jill for being naughty. They say she should not touch the pictures. They say she should be careful. They take her to the doctor. The doctor gives her a bandage and a lollipop. But Jill is still unhappy. She wishes she did not touch the frame. She wishes she did not break the flower. She wishes she did not hurt her head. She learns a hard lesson.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big melon on a table. It was green and round and looked yummy. Lily wanted to taste it, but Ben said no.
+
+"That melon is not for us. It is for the people who work here. They will be angry if we touch it," Ben said.
+
+But Lily did not listen. She was curious and hungry. She ran to the table and grabbed the melon. She tried to bite it, but it was hard and bitter. She made a face and spit it out.
+
+"Yuck! This melon is bad. It is not sweet and juicy like the ones at home," Lily said.
+
+Ben laughed at her. He teased her and said, "Ha ha, you are silly. That is not a melon. That is a pumpkin. Pumpkins are not for eating. They are for making faces and lights."
+
+Lily felt ashamed and sad. She did not like being teased. She wished she had listened to Ben. She said sorry to him and to the people who worked there. She learned her lesson. She never took things that were not hers again. She also learned the difference between a melon and a pumpkin. She liked melons better. They were white and sweet and juicy inside.
+Ben likes to write with his crayons. He writes his name, his mom's name, and his dog's name. He writes on paper, on the wall, and on the sofa. Mom is not happy when she sees the sofa. She says, "Ben, this is terrible! You cannot write on the sofa! You have to write on paper only!" She takes away his crayons and puts them in a box.
+
+Ben is sad and angry. He wants his crayons back. He looks around the room and sees his toy horn. He has an idea. He picks up the horn and blows it very loud. He blows it again and again. He wants to make mom come and give him his crayons. He thinks, "If I make a lot of noise, mom will listen to me."
+
+But mom does not come. She is in the kitchen, making dinner. She hears the horn, but she does not like it. She says, "Ben, stop that! You are making a terrible noise! You have to be quiet and play nicely!" She does not go to the room. She stays in the kitchen.
+
+Ben is more sad and more angry. He does not stop blowing the horn. He blows it louder and louder. He thinks, "Mom does not care about me. She does not want me to write. She does not want me to have fun. She only wants me to be quiet."
+
+Then, he hears a bark. It is his dog, Rex. Rex does not like the horn either. He runs to the room and jumps on Ben. He tries to take the horn from Ben's mouth. He bites and pulls and growls. Ben is scared. He drops the horn and cries. He says, "Rex, no! Leave me alone! You are hurting me!"
+
+Mom hears Ben's cry. She runs to the room and sees Rex and Ben. She says, "Oh, no! What happened?" She picks up Ben and hugs him. She says, "I'm sorry, Ben. I did not mean to make you feel bad. I love you. But you have to be careful with your toys. You cannot write on the sofa or blow the horn so loud. You have to respect the things and the people around you."
+
+Ben says, "I'm sorry, mom. I was mad at you. I wanted my crayons. I like to write." Mom says, "I know, Ben. I like your writing too. But you have to write on paper, not on the sofa. Here, I have a new coloring book for you. You can write and draw on it as much as you want. And you can have your crayons back, if you promise to use them well."
+
+Ben says, "Thank you, mom. I promise. Can I also have my horn back?" Mom says, "Yes, you can. But only if you use it outside, not inside. And not too loud, okay?" Ben says, "Okay, mom. I love you." Mom says, "I love you too, Ben." They hug and kiss. Rex wags his tail and licks their faces. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big jeep parked near their house. It was green and shiny, and had four big wheels.
+
+"Wow, look at that jeep!" Tom said. "Let's go and see it!"
+
+Lily followed Tom, but she was not so excited. She thought jeeps were boring. She liked flowers and dolls more.
+
+They ran to the jeep and looked inside. It had a lot of buttons and levers and a big steering wheel. Tom climbed on the seat and pretended to drive.
+
+"Beep beep! I'm a driver!" he shouted. "This is so fun!"
+
+Lily yawned. She did not want to play with the jeep. She looked around and saw a small garden behind the jeep. It had many colorful flowers and butterflies.
+
+"Tom, come here!" she called. "I found something better!"
+
+Tom ignored her. He was too busy playing with the jeep. He pushed a button and the jeep made a loud noise.
+
+"Vroom vroom!" he said. "This is the best!"
+
+Lily sighed. She walked to the garden and smelled the flowers. They were sweet and fresh. She saw a butterfly land on a pink flower. She reached out her hand and gently touched its wings.
+
+"Hello, butterfly!" she said. "You are so pretty!"
+
+The butterfly fluttered and flew away. Lily smiled and followed it. She discovered more flowers and insects in the garden. She felt happy and curious.
+
+She wished Tom would join her. She looked back at the jeep and saw Tom still playing alone. He looked bored and tired.
+
+"Tom, come on!" she said again. "The jeep is not fun. The garden is better. You can discover many things here!"
+
+Tom heard her and looked at her. He saw her smiling and holding a flower. He saw the butterfly flying around her. He felt curious too.
+
+He got off the jeep and walked to her. He saw the garden and was amazed. It was beautiful and full of life.
+
+"Wow, you're right!" he said. "The garden is better. The jeep is boring. Can I play with you?"
+
+Lily nodded and gave him the flower. They played together in the garden and discovered many things. They had fun and learned a lot.
+
+The moral of the story is: Sometimes, the things that seem boring are more interesting than the things that seem fun. It is good to be curious and explore new things. It is also good to share and play with others.
+Lily loved to go to the zoo with her mom and dad. She liked to see all the different animals and learn their names. Her favorite animal was the octopus. She thought it was funny and smart, with its eight arms and big eyes.
+
+One day, the zoo had a special event. They let some children feed the octopus. Lily was very excited. She wanted to be one of them. She raised her hand and hoped the zookeeper would pick her. She was lucky. The zookeeper smiled and gave her a small fish.
+
+Lily walked carefully to the big tank where the octopus lived. She saw it hiding under a rock. She waved the fish in front of the glass. The octopus saw it too. It came out of its hiding place and swam towards Lily. It reached out one of its arms and took the fish from her hand. It looked at her with its big eyes and made a funny noise.
+
+Lily was amazed. She felt happy and proud. She had fed the octopus. She had provided it with food. She thanked the zookeeper and ran back to her mom and dad. She told them what she had done. They hugged her and praised her. They said she was brave and kind. Lily smiled. She had a wonderful day at the zoo.
+Tom and Lily are playing with cards. They like to make a big pile of cards and then take turns to pull one out. They want to see who can pull the highest card.
+
+Tom pulls a card. It is a red six. He is happy. He puts the card next to him. Lily pulls a card. It is a black seven. She is happier. She puts the card next to her.
+
+Tom pulls another card. It is a red nine. He is very happy. He thinks he has the highest card. Lily pulls another card. It is a black ten. She is very very happy. She knows she has the highest card.
+
+Tom pulls one more card. He hopes it is a high card. He pulls a red king. He is so happy. He jumps up and down. He shows Lily his card. He says, "I have the highest card! I win!"
+
+Lily looks at her cards. She sees a black ace. She smiles. She shows Tom her card. She says, "No, I have the highest card! I win!"
+
+Tom and Lily look at each other. They laugh. They hug. They say, "We both have high cards! We both win!" They keep playing with cards. They have fun.
+Lila and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. But they also liked to explore. They saw a big hill with many trees and rocks. They wanted to see what was on the other side.
+
+They climbed the hill and found a dark cave. They were curious and brave. They wanted to go inside. They held hands and walked slowly. It was very dark and cold. They heard strange noises. They saw bats and spiders. They were scared.
+
+"Tom, I don't like this cave. Can we go back?" Lila asked.
+
+"OK, Lila. Let's go back. But look, what is that?" Tom pointed to a white thing on the ground.
+
+They went closer and saw that it was a skull. A skull of an animal. It had big teeth and horns. It looked scary and old.
+
+"Wow, what is that?" Lila wondered.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it was a monster. Maybe it lived here. Maybe it still does." Tom said.
+
+They heard a loud roar from the back of the cave. They saw a pair of red eyes shining in the dark. They felt a hot breath on their necks. They were terrified.
+
+They screamed and ran. They dropped the skull and ran as fast as they could. They reached the entrance of the cave and kept running. They ran down the hill and back to the park. They did not stop until they found their mom.
+
+They hugged their mom and told her what they saw. Their mom listened and comforted them. She told them that they were very brave and smart to run away. She told them that the skull was probably from a deer or a goat. She told them that the roar was probably from a bear or a lion. She told them that the cave was not a safe place to play. She told them that they should always stay close to her.
+
+Lila and Tom nodded and agreed. They were glad that they were safe and with their mom. They were sorry that they went to the cave. They were sorry for the poor animal that lost its skull. They did not want to go back to the cave. They wanted to play in the park. They wanted to slide, swing and run. They wanted to have fun.
+One day, a little boy named Tom wanted to play with his new toy car. He saw a big house with a nice garden and a garage. He thought, maybe I can enter the garage and find more cars to play with. He ran to the house and opened the garage door.
+
+But inside the garage, there was a big dog. The dog was ugly and angry. It had sharp teeth and dirty fur. It barked at Tom and chased him. Tom was scared and ran away. He dropped his toy car on the floor.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing here?" a voice shouted. It was the owner of the house. He was a tall man with a beard. He saw Tom running out of the garage and his dog following him. He also saw the toy car on the floor. He picked it up and looked at it.
+
+"This is your car?" he asked Tom. "Why did you enter my garage without asking? That was very rude and dangerous. My dog could have bitten you. You are lucky he is not very hot today, or he would have been more angry."
+
+Tom was crying and sorry. He said, "I'm sorry, sir. I just wanted to play with more cars. I didn't know you had a dog. I didn't mean to be rude or dangerous. Please give me back my car. It is my favorite toy."
+
+The man looked at Tom and felt sorry for him. He said, "Okay, I will give you back your car. But you have to promise me something. Never enter a stranger's house or garage without permission. It is not safe or polite. You should always ask first, or play somewhere else. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom nodded and said, "Yes, sir. I understand. I promise I will never do that again. Thank you for giving me back my car. And I'm sorry for making your dog angry. He is not ugly, he is just different."
+
+The man smiled and said, "You're welcome, Tom. And you're right, he is not ugly, he is just different. He is my friend and he protects me and my house. But he doesn't like strangers. Maybe next time, you can say hello to him and give him a treat. Then he might like you too."
+
+Tom smiled and said, "Maybe I will, sir. Goodbye, and thank you again."
+
+Tom ran back to his home with his toy car. He learned a lesson that day. He learned to respect other people's property and privacy. He also learned to not judge a book by its cover, or a dog by its fur. He was happy and grateful for his car and his new friend.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big truck that sold ice cream. They ran to the truck and asked for two cones. The man gave them one cone with chocolate and one cone with vanilla.
+
+Ben wanted the chocolate cone, but Lily got it first. Ben was angry and tried to grab it from her. Lily said no and pushed him away. Ben cried and said it was not fair. He wanted the chocolate cone too.
+
+The man saw them fighting and felt sorry for them. He said he had one more cone with chocolate and vanilla mixed. He asked them if they wanted to share it. Ben and Lily looked at the cone. It was big and yummy. They nodded and said yes.
+
+The man gave them the cone and a napkin. He told them to be nice to each other and enjoy the ice cream. Ben and Lily said thank you and smiled. They each took a bite of the cone. It was sweet and cold. They liked it a lot.
+
+They ate the cone together and licked their lips. They felt happy and sorry. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They learned that sharing was better than being selfish. They also learned to clean their faces with the napkin. They did not want to be messy. They thanked the man again and ran back to their mom. They told her about the ice cream and the lesson. She was proud of them and gave them a kiss.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big balloon that was red and yellow. It was very pretty and shiny. They wanted to touch it and see what it felt like.
+
+"Can we have the balloon, please?" Lily asked a man who was holding it.
+
+The man smiled and said, "Sure, you can have it. But be careful, it can fly away very fast. You have to hold it tight."
+
+Lily and Ben thanked the man and took the balloon. They felt happy and excited. They ran around the park with the balloon, laughing and shouting.
+
+But then, a strong wind came and blew the balloon away from their hands. It went up and up in the sky, until they could not see it anymore. It disappeared.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sad and scared. They did not know where the balloon went. They did not know how to get it back. They did not know what to do.
+
+They looked around and saw that the park was empty. The man who gave them the balloon was gone. They did not see any other people or cars or houses. They only saw trees and grass and flowers.
+
+They felt lost and alone. They did not know where they were. They did not know how to go home. They did not know if anyone would find them.
+
+They started to cry and hug each other. They wished they had never taken the balloon. They wished they had been more careful. They wished someone would come and help them.
+
+But no one came. No one heard them. No one saw them. They stayed in the park, crying and hugging, until it was dark and cold. They disappeared.
+Mia and Ben are twins. They like to play in the garden. They have a big tree with a swing. Mia likes to swing high and fast. Ben likes to swing low and slow.
+
+One day, they see a rabbit in the garden. The rabbit is eating salad from their mom's plants. Mia and Ben are curious. They want to see the rabbit closer. They get off the swing and walk slowly to the rabbit.
+
+"Hello, rabbit," Mia says softly. "Do you like salad?"
+
+The rabbit looks at Mia and Ben. It has big ears and a fluffy tail. It does not say anything. It keeps eating salad.
+
+"Can we pet you, rabbit?" Ben asks gently. He reaches out his hand to the rabbit.
+
+The rabbit is scared. It does not like strangers. It hops away from Ben's hand. It runs to the tree and leans against it. It hopes Mia and Ben will leave it alone.
+
+Mia and Ben are sad. They do not want to scare the rabbit. They want to be friends with it.
+
+"Maybe the rabbit is shy," Mia says. "Maybe it needs some time to know us."
+
+"Maybe we can give it some salad," Ben says. "Maybe it will like us if we share our food."
+
+Mia and Ben go to the kitchen. They ask their mom for some salad. Their mom gives them some lettuce and carrots. She says they are good for rabbits.
+
+Mia and Ben go back to the garden. They see the rabbit still leaning against the tree. They put some salad on the ground near the rabbit. They sit on the grass and wait.
+
+The rabbit smells the salad. It is hungry. It sees Mia and Ben sitting quietly. It thinks they are nice. It hops to the salad and nibbles on it.
+
+Mia and Ben smile. They are happy. The rabbit likes their salad. They watch the rabbit eat. They think it is cute.
+
+"Thank you for the salad," the rabbit says in a small voice. "You are original and kind."
+
+Mia and Ben are surprised. They did not know the rabbit can talk. They are glad the rabbit likes them.
+
+"You are welcome, rabbit," Mia says. "You are original and cute."
+
+"What is your name, rabbit?" Ben asks.
+
+The rabbit thinks for a moment. It does not have a name. It decides to make one.
+
+"My name is Sal," the rabbit says. "Because I like salad."
+
+Mia and Ben laugh. They think Sal is a good name for the rabbit.
+
+"We are Mia and Ben," they say. "We are twins. We like to play in the garden."
+
+Sal nods. He likes Mia and Ben. He likes to play in the garden too.
+
+"Can we be friends, Sal?" Mia and Ben ask.
+
+Sal smiles. He nods again. He likes to have friends.
+
+"Yes, we can be friends," Sal says. "And we can share salad."
+
+Mia and Ben hug Sal. They are happy. They have a new friend. They play in the garden with Sal. They swing on the swing. They eat salad. They have fun. They are original and kind.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play games. Today they play a game with cards. They have to match the cards with the same picture.
+
+Tom is very good at the game. He has many matches. Sam is not so good. He has few matches. Sam wants to win. He thinks of a bad idea. He looks at Tom's cards when Tom is not looking. He sees a card with a dog. He has a card with a dog too. He takes Tom's card and puts it with his card. He says, "Look, I have a match!"
+
+Tom is sad. He knows Sam is cheating. He says, "No, Sam, that is not fair. That is my card. You took it from me. You are not honest. You are not a good friend."
+
+Sam feels ashamed. He knows Tom is right. He says, "I'm sorry, Tom. You are right. I was not honest. I was not a good friend. I wanted to win, but I did not play fair. I will give you back your card. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Tom is happy. He says, "Yes, Sam, I forgive you. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will always be honest. You will always play fair. That is how you gain respect. That is how you gain true friends. That is more important than winning."
+
+Sam nods. He says, "I promise, Tom. I will always be honest. I will always play fair. I want to gain respect. I want to gain true friends. I want to be like you."
+
+Tom and Sam hug. They are friends again. They finish the game. They do not care who wins. They care about being honest. They care about being good friends. They are happy.
+Ben and Lily like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They like to make them go fast on the floor and on the sofa.
+
+One day, they decide to have a race with their cars. They choose their favorite cars. Ben has a big orange car that makes a loud noise. Lily has a small pink car that has a shiny sticker.
+
+They line up their cars at the start of the race. They count to three and then push their cars as hard as they can. The cars zoom across the floor and towards the finish line.
+
+Ben's orange car is very fast, but it hits a book and flips over. Lily's pink car is slower, but it avoids the book and keeps going. Lily's pink car reaches the finish line first and wins the race.
+
+Lily is happy and cheers. Ben is sad and cries. Lily gives Ben a hug and says, "It's okay, Ben. You have a nice orange car. We can have another race later." Ben smiles and says, "Thank you, Lily. You have a pretty pink car. You are a good friend." They put away their cars and play with something else.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to smell the herbs that grew in pots. They smelled mint, rosemary, and basil. They pretended they were chefs and made pretend food with the herbs.
+
+But then a rude cat came and jumped on the pots. It knocked them over and spilled the dirt and the herbs. It hissed and scratched at Tom and Lily. They were scared and ran away.
+
+"Go away, cat! You are bad and mean!" Tom shouted.
+
+"Leave our herbs alone! They are not for you!" Lily cried.
+
+The cat did not listen. It kept making a mess and ruining the herbs. Tom and Lily did not know what to do.
+
+But then they saw their dog, Spot. Spot was big and friendly. He liked to play with Tom and Lily. He saw the cat and barked loudly.
+
+"Spot, help us! Rescue our herbs!" Tom and Lily called.
+
+Spot ran to the garden and chased the cat away. He wagged his tail and licked Tom and Lily. He helped them pick up the pots and the herbs.
+
+"Thank you, Spot! You are a good and brave dog!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+They hugged and petted Spot. They fixed the garden and put the herbs back in their places. They gave Spot some treats and water. They continued to play with the herbs and Spot. They were happy and safe.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys. One day, they find a big box in the living room. It has a picture of a farm on it.
+
+"Look, Ben, a farm!" Anna says. "Let's open it and see what's inside."
+
+They open the box and see many animals and things. There are cows, pigs, chickens, a tractor, a barn and more. They are very happy and start to play with them.
+
+"Anna, you be the farmer and I be the driver," Ben says. "You can order the animals and I can drive the tractor."
+
+"OK, Ben," Anna says. "But be careful, don't drive too fast or you will break something."
+
+They have fun playing with the farm. Anna orders the animals to go to the barn, to eat, to sleep and to make noises. Ben drives the tractor around the farm, to plow, to sow and to harvest. They pretend they are on a real farm.
+
+But then, they hear their mom calling them.
+
+"Anna, Ben, it's time for lunch. Come and wash your hands."
+
+They stop playing and look at the box. It is very messy and full of toys.
+
+"Uh-oh, we have to clean up," Anna says.
+
+"Yes, we do," Ben says. "But how can we fit all the toys back in the box? It is too tight."
+
+They try to put the toys back in the box, but they can't. The box is too small and the toys are too big. They push and squeeze, but it doesn't work.
+
+"Mom, we need help!" Anna says.
+
+Mom comes and sees the box and the toys. She smiles and says:
+
+"Don't worry, kids. I have an idea. Why don't we put the farm in your room? You can play with it anytime you want. And you can use the box for something else."
+
+"Really, mom?" Anna and Ben say.
+
+"Yes, really. Come on, let's go to your room and set up the farm. And then we can have lunch."
+
+Anna and Ben are very happy. They hug their mom and say:
+
+"Thank you, mom. You are the best."
+
+They take the farm to their room and put it on the floor. They arrange the animals and the things. They like their new farm. They can't wait to play with it again. But first, they go to have lunch with their mom. They are hungry and thirsty. They have soup, bread and juice. They eat and drink and talk about their farm. They are a happy family.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a white rabbit in the grass. They ran after it, hoping to catch it and pet it.
+
+"Come here, bunny!" Anna shouted. "We want to be your friends!"
+
+But the rabbit was scared of the twins. It ran away from them, hopping into the bushes. Anna and Ben followed it, but they did not see where it went.
+
+They looked around, but they could not find the rabbit. They felt sad and lost. They did not know how to go back home.
+
+"Where are we?" Ben asked. "I want Mommy and Daddy!"
+
+Anna hugged her brother. She tried to be brave. She looked up at the sky and saw a big, bright star. She remembered what Mommy had told her once.
+
+"Mommy said that if we are lost, we can gaze at the star and make a wish. The star will help us find our way," Anna said.
+
+"Really?" Ben asked. "Let's try it!"
+
+They both gazed at the star and wished to go back home. They closed their eyes and hoped.
+
+When they opened their eyes, they saw a familiar path. It was the path that led to their house. They also saw the white rabbit, sitting on the side of the path. It looked at them with its big, black eyes.
+
+"Thank you, bunny!" Anna said. "You helped us find the star!"
+
+The rabbit twitched its nose and hopped away. Anna and Ben smiled and ran to their house. They were happy to see Mommy and Daddy waiting for them.
+
+They learned a lesson that day. They learned to be careful when they chase animals. They learned to respect their feelings and their homes. They learned to gaze at the star when they need help. And they learned to be thankful for their friends, even if they are furry and white.
+Tom and Lily are hungry. They want to eat beef for lunch. Mom says she will cook beef for them, but they have to wait. Tom and Lily do not like to wait. They want to eat now.
+
+They see a big pot on the stove. It has beef inside. It smells good. Tom and Lily want to see the beef. They push a chair to the stove. They climb on the chair. They try to lift the lid of the pot.
+
+"Be careful!" Mom says. "The pot is hot. You will burn yourself. And the beef is not ready. You have to wait."
+
+But Tom and Lily do not listen. They pull the lid of the pot. The lid is heavy. The pot is hot. The beef is juicy. The lid falls. The pot falls. The beef falls. Tom and Lily fall.
+
+"Ouch!" Tom and Lily say. They are hurt. They are scared. They are sad. They cry.
+
+Mom runs to them. She is angry. She is worried. She hugs them. She checks them. They are not burned. They are not cut. They are only bruised.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom," Tom and Lily say. "We were hungry. We wanted to eat the beef."
+
+"I know, my loves," Mom says. "But you have to be patient. And you have to be safe. You could have hurt yourself badly. And you wasted the beef. Now we have to eat something else."
+
+"What will we eat, Mom?" Tom and Lily ask.
+
+"I don't know," Mom says. "Maybe soup. Or bread. Or cheese. Or nothing."
+
+Tom and Lily feel sorry. They feel ashamed. They say sorry again. They hug Mom. They help Mom clean the mess. They wait for lunch. They are still hungry. But they are also grateful. And they are also loved.
+Sara was a princess who liked to spoil herself. She had many toys, dresses, and candies, but she never shared them with anyone. She always wanted more and more, and she threw tantrums when she did not get what she wanted.
+
+One day, a fairy came to visit Sara. She saw how spoiled and selfish Sara was, and she decided to teach her a lesson. She waved her wand and turned all of Sara's things into filthy rags and dirt. Sara was shocked and angry. She cried and screamed at the fairy.
+
+"Give me back my things, you mean fairy! I hate you! You are not nice!" Sara shouted.
+
+The fairy shook her head and said, "No, Sara, you are not nice. You are spoiled and greedy. You do not appreciate what you have, and you do not care about others. You need to learn how to be kind and generous, or you will never be happy."
+
+The fairy left Sara alone with her filthy things. Sara felt sad and lonely. She realized that she had no friends, because she had been so rude and stingy. She wished she could have her things back, but she also wished she could have someone to play with and share with.
+
+She decided to try to change her ways. She cleaned up her room and her things, and she gave some of them to the poor children in the village. She said sorry to the people she had hurt, and she made new friends. She learned how to be polite and grateful, and she smiled more often.
+
+The fairy saw how Sara had changed, and she was pleased. She came back to Sara and said, "Well done, Sara. You have learned your lesson. You are no longer a spoiled princess, but a kind and happy one. I will give you back your things, but remember to use them wisely and share them with others."
+
+Sara thanked the fairy and hugged her. She was happy to have her things back, but she was happier to have friends and a good heart. She never spoiled herself again, and she lived happily ever after.
+Lily and Sam were playing in the park. They saw a pigeon on the grass. It was gray and white and had a shiny neck.
+
+"Look, a pigeon!" Lily said. "Let's feed it some bread."
+
+They ran to the pigeon with some bread crumbs in their hands. The pigeon saw them and flew away.
+
+"Come back, pigeon!" Sam shouted. "We want to be your friends!"
+
+They chased the pigeon around the park. The pigeon was fast and smart. It hid behind a tree, under a bench, and on top of a slide.
+
+"Where is the pigeon?" Lily asked. "I can't see it."
+
+"Me neither," Sam said. "Let's look for it."
+
+They looked everywhere for the pigeon. They were excited and curious. They wanted to see the pigeon again.
+
+They found the pigeon on a fountain. It was drinking some water and pecking at some seeds.
+
+"There it is!" Lily said. "It's on the fountain!"
+
+They ran to the fountain with more bread crumbs. The pigeon saw them and flew away again.
+
+"Wait, pigeon!" Sam said. "We have some food for you!"
+
+They followed the pigeon to a big statue. It was a statue of a lion. The pigeon landed on the lion's head.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Lily said. "The pigeon is on the lion!"
+
+They climbed the statue with some bread crumbs. The pigeon saw them and flew away again.
+
+"Stop, pigeon!" Sam said. "We just want to play with you!"
+
+They jumped off the statue and ran after the pigeon. The pigeon was tired and hungry. It flew to a bench and sat down.
+
+"Ha, we got you!" Lily said. "You can't hide anymore!"
+
+They reached the bench with some bread crumbs. The pigeon saw them and did not fly away.
+
+"Hello, pigeon," Sam said. "We are Lily and Sam. We like you."
+
+They offered some bread crumbs to the pigeon. The pigeon was brave and friendly. It ate some bread crumbs from their hands.
+
+"Yay, the pigeon likes us!" Lily said. "We are friends now!"
+
+They petted the pigeon and talked to it. The pigeon cooed and nodded. They were happy and gentle.
+
+They played with the pigeon for a long time. They had fun and learned a lot. They loved the pigeon and the pigeon loved them.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. But they only have one blanket. It is blue and soft.
+
+One day, Sara wants to make a tent with the blanket. She puts it over two chairs. She says, "This is my tent. I can read and draw inside. It is cozy and fun."
+
+Ben sees the tent. He wants to join Sara. He says, "Can I come in your tent? I want to play with you. Can I borrow the blanket?"
+
+Sara says, "No, you can't. This is my blanket. I need it for my tent. You have to find another blanket."
+
+Ben is sad. He looks around the room. He sees a towel, a sheet, and a scarf. He tries to make a tent with them. But they are too small or too thin. They do not fit. He says, "None of these work. They are not good for a tent. I wish I had a blanket."
+
+Sara hears Ben. She feels sorry for him. She remembers that they are twins. They share everything. She says, "Ben, I have an idea. Why don't we make a bigger tent with the blanket and the other things? We can put them together. Then we can both fit inside. We can borrow the blanket from each other."
+
+Ben likes the idea. He says, "Yes, let's do that. That sounds fun. Thank you, Sara. You are a good sister."
+
+They work together to make a bigger tent. They use the blanket, the towel, the sheet, and the scarf. They make a door and a window. They bring some toys and books inside. They have a lot of fun. They are happy. They share the blanket.
+Lila was a little girl who liked to explore the woods. She was independent and brave, but sometimes she got lost. One day, she wandered too far and could not find her way back. She saw a big tree with a hole and decided to climb inside. There she met an owl who was sleeping.
+
+"Who are you?" the owl asked, opening his eyes.
+
+"I'm Lila. I'm lost. Can you help me?" Lila said.
+
+The owl looked at her and said, "I'm Ollie. I live here. I can help you, but you have to wait until it gets dark. I can see better at night."
+
+Lila was scared of the dark, but she nodded. She was glad to have a friend. She said, "Thank you, Ollie. You are very kind."
+
+Ollie smiled and said, "You're welcome, Lila. You are very brave. We can support each other."
+
+They talked and played until the sun went down. Then Ollie flew out of the hole and said, "Follow me, Lila. I'll show you the way home."
+
+Lila climbed out of the hole and held on to Ollie's feathers. She saw the stars and the moon and felt the wind. She was not scared anymore. She was happy.
+
+They flew over the woods and saw a light. It was Lila's house. Her parents were waiting for her. They hugged her and said, "We were so worried, Lila. Where were you?"
+
+Lila told them about Ollie and how he helped her. They thanked Ollie and said, "You are a good owl, Ollie. You can come back anytime."
+
+Ollie said, "You are a good family, Lila. I'm glad you're safe. I'll come back soon."

+Ben is a youth. He likes to chew gum. He chews gum every day. He chews gum at home, at school, and at the park. He chews gum in the morning, in the afternoon, and in the night. He chews gum all the time. He is a regular gum chewer.
+
+One day, Ben finds a big pack of gum. He is very happy. He opens the pack and takes out a piece. He puts it in his mouth and chews. He likes the taste. He takes out another piece and chews. He likes the taste more. He takes out another piece and chews. He likes the taste even more. He takes out all the pieces and chews. He likes the taste the most.
+
+But then, something bad happens. Ben's mouth gets too full. He cannot chew anymore. He cannot talk anymore. He cannot breathe anymore. He feels scared. He tries to spit out the gum, but it is too sticky. He tries to pull out the gum, but it is too stretchy. He tries to cry out for help, but it is too quiet.
+
+Ben wishes he did not chew so much gum. He wishes he chewed less gum. He wishes he chewed regular gum. He wishes he was a regular youth.
+Lily and Tom were playing with blocks. They wanted to make a big tower. They put one block on top of another block, and another, and another. They were very happy.
+
+But then, Ben came. Ben was a big boy who liked to stir trouble. He saw Lily and Tom's tower and wanted to break it. He pushed the blocks with his hand and made them fall. "Ha ha, your tower is gone!" he said.
+
+Lily and Tom were very sad. They worked hard to make the tower, and now it was broken. They cried and said, "Ben, you are mean! Why did you do that?"
+
+Ben did not care. He laughed and said, "Because I can. Your tower was poor. My tower is better." He showed them his tower, which was made of big and shiny blocks. He was very proud.
+
+But then, Mia came. Mia was a big girl who liked to help. She saw Ben's tower and said, "Ben, your tower is not nice. It is too big and too shiny. It hurts my eyes. And you are not nice. You made Lily and Tom cry. That is not good."
+
+Ben was angry. He said, "Mia, you are silly. My tower is the best. You are just jealous. Go away!"
+
+Mia did not go away. She said, "No, I will not go away. I will show you what is good." She took a ball and threw it at Ben's tower. The ball hit the tower and made it fall. The big and shiny blocks scattered everywhere. "Ha ha, your tower is gone!" she said.
+
+Ben was very sad. He worked hard to make the tower, and now it was broken. He cried and said, "Mia, you are mean! Why did you do that?"
+
+Mia said, "Because you were mean first. You should not break other people's towers. You should share and be kind. That is good."
+
+Lily and Tom stopped crying. They saw Mia and said, "Mia, you are nice. Thank you for helping us. Do you want to play with us?"
+
+Mia smiled and said, "Yes, I want to play with you. Let's make a new tower together. A tower that is not too big or too shiny, but just right. A tower that we can all enjoy."
+
+Lily, Tom, and Mia hugged and started to play. They made a new tower with their blocks. They were very happy.
+Tom is a hungry cat. He likes to eat birds, but they are fast and smart. They fly away when he comes near. Tom sees a big bird on a tree. It has many feathers of different colors. Tom thinks it is a tasty bird. He wants to catch it.
+
+Tom jumps on the tree and tries to reach the bird. But the bird sees him and says, "Caw, caw, caw! Go away, cat! You cannot eat me!" The bird flaps its wings and flies to another tree. Tom follows it, but he is not fast enough. The bird says, "Caw, caw, caw! You are silly, cat! You cannot catch me!"
+
+Tom is angry and tired. He jumps from one tree to another, but the bird always escapes. Tom loses his balance and falls to the ground. He lands on a pile of leaves. He feels something tickle his nose. It is a feather. The feather is from the bird. Tom sniffs the feather and thinks, "This feather smells good. Maybe the bird tastes good too."
+
+Tom picks up the feather and tries to eat it. But the feather is not food. It is soft and fluffy. It does not fill his stomach. It makes him cough and sneeze. Tom spits out the feather and says, "Blech! This feather is bad. It is not yummy. It is yucky!"
+
+Tom is still hungry. He looks around and sees a mouse. The mouse is small and brown. It does not have feathers. It has fur. Tom thinks, "Maybe the mouse is food. Maybe the mouse is yummy." He forgets about the bird and chases the mouse. The mouse runs away, but Tom is faster. He catches the mouse and eats it. Tom is happy and full. He says, "Mmm, this mouse is good. It is much better than the feather." He licks his paws and takes a nap.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had a lot of toys, but their favorite was a big navy boat that their dad gave them. The boat had a fancy flag, a shiny wheel, and a loud horn. Anna and Ben pretended to be sailors and went on adventures with the boat.
+
+One day, they decided to sail to a faraway island where they could find treasure. They packed some snacks and water in a bag and put it on the boat. They said goodbye to their mom and dad and sailed away. They sang songs and told stories as they sailed.
+
+After a while, they saw a green island with palm trees and flowers. They were very excited and landed the boat on the sand. They jumped off and started to look for treasure. They saw a big rock with a hole in it. They thought there might be something inside.
+
+"Let's go and see what's in there!" Anna said.
+
+"OK, but be careful!" Ben said.
+
+They crawled into the hole and saw a shiny metal box. They opened it and found a lot of gold coins and jewels. They were very happy and started to count them.
+
+"Wow, we are rich!" Anna said.
+
+"Look, there's a note!" Ben said.
+
+He picked up a piece of paper and read it. It said:
+
+"Hello, sailors! You have found my treasure. I hope you enjoy it. But there is a catch. The treasure is cursed. If you taste any of it, you will turn into a fish. So don't be greedy and leave some for others. Good luck!"
+
+Ben and Anna looked at each other with wide eyes. They remembered that they had brought some snacks and water with them. They wondered if they had touched any of the treasure with their hands or mouths.
+
+"Did you taste any of the treasure?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, I don't think so. Did you?" Anna asked.
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He remembered that he had licked his finger after he touched a gold coin. He felt a strange tingling in his mouth and his tongue.
+
+"Uh-oh," he said.
+
+"What's wrong?" Anna asked.
+
+Ben opened his mouth and saw that he had grown scales and gills. He started to gasp for air.
+
+"Help!" he said.
+
+Anna screamed and grabbed his hand. She tried to pull him out of the hole. But it was too late. Ben had turned into a fish. He flopped on the sand and looked at Anna with sad eyes.
+
+Anna cried and hugged him. She wished they had never found the treasure. She wished they had listened to their mom and dad. She wished they could go back home.
+
+She hoped that someone would find them and help them. She hoped that the curse could be broken. She hoped that Ben could be her brother again.
+Tom and Mia were friends who liked to play at the beach. They saw a big seal on the sand. The seal was heavy and slow. Tom and Mia wanted to race with the seal.
+
+"Let's see who can run faster, us or the seal!" Tom said.
+
+"OK, but be nice to the seal. He is not like us. He is good at swimming, not running." Mia said.
+
+They ran to the seal and said, "Hello, seal! Do you want to race with us?"
+
+The seal looked at them and said, "No, thank you. I am happy here. I do not like to race. I like to rest and enjoy the sun."
+
+Tom and Mia did not listen. They said, "Come on, seal! It will be fun! We will start here and run to that rock. Ready, set, go!"
+
+They ran as fast as they could, leaving the seal behind. They laughed and shouted, "We are faster than the seal! We are the winners!"

+
+The seal smiled and said, "Thank you, children. I forgive you. You are kind to say sorry. You are good at running, but you can also be good at caring. That is more important than racing."

+Tom and Mia nodded and said, "You are right, seal. Caring is more important than racing. We will be more careful next time. Can we be your friends?"

+
+Zoey was satisfied with the answer, but as she kept wondering, she asked another question. "Why is a hedgehog hairy?" Mummy thought for a moment, then answered, "We all have different features.

+One day, Susan and her mommy went to the zoo. Susan was so excited. As they walked through the zoo, Susan could see so many animals. She saw zebras, tigers and elephants. Suddenly, Susan saw something that made her stop and stare. It was a lion! It was huge and it had a loud roar.
+
+"Mommy, what's that terrible sound?" asked Susan.
+
+Her mommy smiled and said, "That's a lion, honey. Don't worry, it's in a cage so it can't get us."
+
+But Susan wasn't so sure. She kept on staring at the lion. It looked so strong! She was a little bit afraid.
+
+"Come on, Susan, let's go look at the zebras," said her mommy.
+
+So Susan took one more look at the lion and then followed her mommy to see the zebras. She was still a little bit anxious, but she was glad she was safe.
+Once there was a little girl named Sarah who loved playing outside in the park with her best friends.

She could feel the sun shining and could smell the sweet smell of the flowers.
+
+Once her friends arrived, they all started running around the park. Sarah was so happy to be able to play with her friends and was having so much fun! All of a sudden, Sarah noticed that her stuffed toy had disappeared. She asked her friends if they had seen it, but none of them had.

+Sarah started to look around for her stuffed toy and soon enough she found it! She was so happy that she ran to it, hugged it, and brought it back to her friends. As she was running back with it, she smiled and knew that it was the right thing to return it.
+Once upon a time, there were two friends called Amy and Joe. They lived in a big city, with lots of buildings and roads. They were very excited when they saw a big, new flag hung up in the city square.
+
+"Wow, what a nice flag!" exclaimed Joe.
+
+"It sure is," agreed Amy.
+
+The friends went over to take a closer look. When Amy touched the flag, it suddenly came apart into two separate pieces.
+
+Amy and Joe looked at the pieces and noticed that the flag was made up of two flags- one with a blue background and one with a red background. 
+
+"Wow," said Amy. "This flag is two flags!"
+
+Joe nodded in agreement. The friends decided to hang them both up in their rooms to remember the day they found the two special flags. From that day onwards, they kept the two pieces of the flag separate, but never forgot the day they saw it together in the city square.

+
+But then, dad guessed something wrong. Lucy was so surprised and said, “Noooo! That's not the answer.†Dad smiled and said, “That’s ok, it’s just a game.†
+
+Suddenly, the computer stopped working. Dad opened it up to take a look but he couldn't fix it. Lucy was so sad.

+They had to guess what the problem was. Dad guessed it was the battery, but he was wrong. There was nothing they could do.
+
+The computer stayed broken and they never got to play the game again. Lucy was very sad, while dad felt bad that he couldn't fix the computer.

+The end.
+Sandy was a three year old who loved visiting her grandparent's factory. She often went there with her parents.The factory was always very busy and full of busy workers who made special things.
+
+"What is this factory for, Grandpa?", Sandy asked one day.
+
+"This is where we make things that people value," Grandpa said.
+
+Sandy looked around, amazed at all the things she saw. She thought it must be difficult to make so many things at the same time.
+
+"Grandpa, do the workers need to work hard to make the things?," she asked.
+
+Grandpa nodded. "Yes, it takes a lot of hard work to make the things for the factory. It's not easy but it's important."
+
+Sandy was surprised at how much grandpa valued his workers and the work they did. As she watched the factory, she appreciated the hard work that went into it and wanted to help each worker. 
+
+At the end of the day, Sandy was proud that she had learned how much her grandpa valued the factory and the people who worked there.
+One morning, Tom woke up to find the sun was shining brightly. It was a good day! He saw the gray birds singing and heard the bee buzzing. He knew he wanted to do something special.
+
+Tom thought for a moment, and then he knew what to do. He said, "I'm going to count all the sausages in my house!"
+
+He was excited to start counting. He counted one, two, three, four, five and so on. Then Tom continued counting. Suddenly, he heard something strange.
+
+It was a loud banging noise from outside of his house. He crept towards the window to take a peek outside. He saw a big, gray truck which blocked the whole street.
+
+The driver of the truck shouted, "What are you doing? You can't count sausages like that!" Then he drove away.
+
+Tom was very scared and upset. He knew he had done something wrong and he felt sad that his fun morning had ended so badly.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Jane. Jane was three years old and loved to explore the world around her. One day while exploring, she saw a dirty mouse. She bent down to take a closer look and said, "Hello, Mr Mouse!"
+
+The mouse was so surprised that he didn't know what to say. Jane laughed and said, "Can I come to your house, Mr Mouse? I won't do any harm."
+
+The mouse thought for a moment and said, "My house is very dirty, so if you come, you'll get dirty too." 
+
+"That's ok!" said Jane. "I don't mind getting dirty!"
+
+So Jane and the mouse went to his house and played together. They had a lot of fun, but when it was time to go home, Jane's clothes were very dirty.
+
+That night, Jane's mother asked her why she was so dirty. Jane told her mother about her adventure with the mouse, and her mother smiled. "You have learned a very important lesson today," said her mother. "Though it is fun to explore and have new adventures, sometimes you must be careful not to get too dirty."
+
+Jane smiled and nodded. She promised to remember the adventure with the mouse, and to always be careful.
+Lily and Jack were outside on a hot day.
