+Lily clapped her hands. "Yes, Tom, I want to go to the zoo with you. That sounds like fun. Maybe we can see a lion or a monkey or a penguin. I like those animals too. They are amazing. When can we go to the zoo?" Lily said.
+
+Tom looked at his mom, who was sitting on the couch. He asked her, "Mom, can we go to the zoo with Lily? Please, please, please?"
+
+Tom's mom smiled and said, "Sure, Tom, you can go to the zoo with Lily. But you have to finish your lunch first. And you have to be good and listen to me. The zoo is a big place. You have to stay close to me and not run away. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom, we understand. We will finish our lunch and be good and listen to you. Thank you, mom. You are the best."
+
+Tom's mom hugged them and said, "You are welcome, Tom and Lily. You are the best too. I am happy that you like to read and learn about animals. Reading is good for you. It makes you smart and curious. I recommend that you read more books. They can show you many things that you cannot see in real life. They can also give you a shock sometimes. A shock is when you see or hear something that surprises you or makes you feel something strong. Like when you saw the zebra for the first time. That was a shock. But a good shock. A shock that makes you wonder and want to know more. Do you know what I mean?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded again and said, "Yes, mom, we know what you mean. Reading can give us a shock. A good shock. We like to read. We like to wonder and want to know more. We like to have fun with books. And with you. And with each other. We are best friends."
+
+Tom's mom smiled and said, "That's wonderful, Tom and Lily. I am proud of you. You are best friends. And you are amazing. Now, finish your lunch and get ready to go to the zoo. Maybe you will see another animal that will give you a shock. A good shock. And maybe you will find another book that will make you happy. A book that is amazing. Just like you."
+Ben and Lily were playing with paper. They liked to cut, color and fold paper into different shapes. They made hats, boats, flowers and animals. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But they also made a lot of waste. The floor was covered with small pieces of paper that they did not use. Mom saw the mess and was not happy. She told them to clean up and put the waste in the bin.
+
+Ben and Lily did not want to stop playing. They said they were not done yet. They asked Mom if they could keep some of the waste to make more things. Mom said no. She said the waste was too small and too many. She said they had enough paper to play with.
+
+Ben and Lily were sad. They liked their paper creations. They did not want to throw them away. They asked Mom if they could keep some of them. Mom said yes. She said they could keep some of them, but they had to choose which ones. She said they could not keep all of them, because they did not have enough space.
+
+Ben and Lily looked at their paper creations. They had to decide which ones they liked the most. They picked their favorites and put them in a box. They said goodbye to the ones they did not pick and put them in the bin. They thanked Mom for letting them keep some of them. They were grateful.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. She said she was proud of them for being good and tidy. She said she liked their paper creations too. She said they were very creative and clever. She said they could play with them again later. She said she loved them. Ben and Lily smiled and hugged her back. They said they loved her too. They were happy.
+Tom and Mia were best friends. They liked to play together in the park. One day, they saw a big tent in the park. They were curious. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+They walked to the tent and peeked inside. They saw a lot of people sitting at tables. They smelled something yummy. They heard music and laughter. They saw a sign that said "Birthday Party".
+
+"Wow!" Tom said. "This looks like fun!"
+
+"Maybe we can join them," Mia said. "Maybe they have cake!"
+
+They sneaked inside the tent and looked for a place to sit. They saw a table with two empty chairs and two plates of food. They thought it was their lucky day. They sat down and started to eat.
+
+They ate some chicken and some salad. They ate some bread and some cheese. They drank some juice and some water. They were very hungry. They were very happy.
+
+They did not notice that the people at the other tables were looking at them. They did not notice that the people at the other tables were whispering. They did not notice that the people at the other tables were smiling.
+
+They did not notice that the birthday boy was coming to their table. He was holding a big cake with candles. He was followed by his parents and his friends. He was very surprised.
+
+"Who are you?" he asked Tom and Mia.
+
+"We are Tom and Mia," Tom said.
+
+"We are your new friends," Mia said.
+
+They smiled at him. They were very enthusiastic.
+
+"Happy birthday!" they said.
+
+The birthday boy did not know what to say. He looked at his parents and his friends. They looked at him and shrugged. They decided to be nice.
+
+"Thank you," he said.
+
+He put the cake on the table and cut a slice for Tom and Mia. They thanked him and ate the cake. They liked the cake. It was chocolate.
+
+They sang "Happy Birthday" with the others. They clapped and cheered. They had a lot of fun.
+
+They made a new friend. They had a surprise lunch. They had a great day.
+Lily and Ben were making a picture with paper and glue. They cut out shapes and stuck them on a big sheet. Lily made a house with a door and a window. Ben made a car with wheels and a horn.
+
+"Look at my car!" Ben said. "It can go fast and beep beep!"
+
+"Look at my house!" Lily said. "It has a roof and a chimney!"
+
+They were very proud of their picture. They wanted to show it to their teacher, Miss Lee.
+
+They picked up the picture and walked to the front of the class. But on the way, they tripped over a toy and fell down. The picture flew out of their hands and landed on the floor. The glue was not dry yet, and the shapes came off.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Ben cried. "Our picture is ruined!"
+
+Miss Lee saw what happened and came to help them. She picked up the picture and the shapes. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lily and Ben. We can fix it. We have more glue and more paper. And you have more ideas. You can make a new picture, or you can make something else. You are very creative and clever."
+
+Lily and Ben felt better. They thanked Miss Lee for being kind and helpful. They went back to their table and got more glue and more paper. They decided to make something else. They made a regular plane with wings and a tail. They made a regular boat with a sail and a rudder.
+
+They finished their new picture and showed it to Miss Lee. She praised them for their work and hung it on the wall. Lily and Ben were happy. They thanked each other for being good friends. They liked making pictures with paper and glue.
+Lily liked to zip her coat when she went outside. She liked the sound and the feeling of the zipper. She zipped her coat and put on her hat and gloves. She was ready to play in the snow.
+
+She saw a big snowman in the park. He had a funny hat and a carrot nose. She wanted to say hello to him. She ran to the snowman and smiled.
+
+"Hello, snowman! You look very nice. Do you want to be my friend?" she asked.
+
+But the snowman did not answer. He just stood there, silent and cold. Lily felt sad. She wanted the snowman to talk to her.
+
+Then she heard a voice behind her. "Hi, little girl. I made this snowman. Do you like him?"
+
+Lily turned around and saw a stranger. He was a man with a beard and a big coat. He smiled at her.
+
+Lily felt scared. She did not know the stranger. She did not want to talk to him. She wanted to go back to her mom.
+
+She ran away from the snowman and the stranger. She zipped her coat and held her hat. She looked for her mom in the park.
+
+She saw her mom on a bench. She ran to her and hugged her. She told her about the snowman and the stranger.
+
+Her mom listened and nodded. She said, "I'm glad you like the snowman, but you should not talk to strangers. They might be bad. You should always stay with me or someone you know. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "I understand, mom. I'm sorry. I won't talk to strangers again. I love you, mom."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you too, Lily. You are a good girl. Now let's go home and have some hot chocolate."
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big tree in their yard with many branches. They liked to climb the tree and pretend they were birds or monkeys. Sometimes they would sing or make funny noises.
+
+One day, Tom felt a pain in his tummy. He told his mom and she took him to the doctor. The doctor said he had to have an operation to make him better. He had to stay in the hospital for a few days. Lily was sad and scared. She did not want to play without Tom.
+
+She went to the tree and tried to climb it by herself. But it was not fun. She missed Tom and his jokes and songs. She felt lonely and grumpy. She wished Tom would come back soon.
+
+The next day, she got a surprise. Her mom took her to the hospital to see Tom. He was in a bed with a bandage on his tummy. He smiled when he saw Lily. He said, "Hi, sis. I missed you. How are you?"
+
+Lily ran to hug him. She said, "I missed you too, Tom. I'm sorry you had to have an operation. Are you okay?"
+
+Tom nodded. He said, "I'm okay. The doctor said I will be better soon. Then we can play again. Do you want to hear a joke?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, please. I need a joke. I was very grumpy without you."
+
+Tom told her a joke and they both laughed. They felt happy and loved. They knew they would always be together.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the park. They liked to slide, swing, and run. But they did not like the big dog that lived near the park. The big dog was mean and loud. He always barked at them and chased them.
+
+One day, Tom had an idea. He saw a big hole in the ground. He said to Lily, "Let's send the big dog underground. Then he will not bother us anymore. He is too stupid to find his way out."
+
+Lily nodded. She was scared of the big dog. She said, "How do we send him underground?"
+
+Tom said, "We will use this stick and this rope. We will tie the rope to the stick and put the stick near the hole. Then we will hide behind that tree and wait for the big dog to come. When he sees the stick, he will try to get it. Then we will pull the rope and make him fall into the hole."
+
+Lily said, "That sounds like a good plan. Let's do it."
+
+They did what Tom said. They tied the rope to the stick and put the stick near the hole. Then they hid behind the tree and waited for the big dog to come. Soon, they heard the big dog barking. He saw the stick and ran towards it. He tried to grab it with his mouth. But Tom and Lily pulled the rope and made him fall into the hole.
+
+They heard a loud thud and a whimper. They looked into the hole and saw the big dog. He was scared and angry. He tried to jump out of the hole, but he could not. He was stuck underground.
+
+Tom and Lily laughed. They said, "We did it! We sent the big dog underground. He is so stupid. He will not bother us anymore."
+
+They ran away from the hole and went back to the park. They played happily and did not hear the big dog anymore. They did not know that the big dog's owner was looking for him. He was worried and sad. He loved his big dog. He did not know that Tom and Lily had sent him underground. He did not think that they were very nice.
+Lily liked to play in the garden. She had a new doll that she loved very much. She named her doll Rose and gave her a pink dress and a hat.
+
+One day, Lily saw a bee flying near the flowers. She wanted to show Rose the bee, so she ran after it. She did not see that her brother Ben was playing with his truck on the grass.
+
+"Look, Rose, a bee!" Lily said. "It is yellow and black and makes a buzz sound. Maybe it will let us borrow some honey."
+
+But as she ran, she bumped into Ben and his truck. Ben fell down and his truck broke. He was very angry and sad.
+
+"Hey, watch where you're going!" Ben shouted. "You broke my truck! It was my favorite toy!"
+
+Lily felt sorry for Ben. She did not mean to break his truck. She looked at Rose and had an idea.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," Lily said. "I did not see you. I was trying to show Rose the bee. Do you want to see it too?"
+
+Ben shook his head. He did not care about the bee. He cared about his truck.
+
+"No, I don't want to see the bee," Ben said. "I want my truck back."
+
+Lily hugged Rose and then gave her to Ben.
+
+"Here, you can borrow Rose," Lily said. "She is my new doll and I love her very much. But maybe she can make you feel better. She likes trucks too."
+
+Ben looked at Rose. She had a pretty face and a pink dress and a hat. He felt a little better. He took Rose and hugged her too.
+
+"Thank you, Lily," Ben said. "You are a good sister. I will borrow Rose for a little while. But I will give her back to you soon. And maybe we can fix my truck together."
+
+Lily smiled. She was happy that Ben was happy. She did not mind sharing Rose with him. She knew he would take good care of her. She still wanted to see the bee, but she decided to wait until later. She sat down next to Ben and they played with Rose and the broken truck. They were friends again.
+Anna and Ben like to play in the park. They like to run, swing, slide and climb. One day, they see a big tree with many roots. The roots are brown and twisty. They look like snakes.
+
+"Wow, look at the roots!" Ben says. "They are so big and funny!"
+
+Anna nods. She likes the roots too. She wants to touch them. She walks to the tree and puts her hand on a root. It feels rough and hard.
+
+"Be careful, Anna!" Ben says. "Maybe the roots are alive. Maybe they can bite you!"
+
+Anna laughs. She does not think the roots can bite. She thinks they are just part of the tree. She thinks the tree is very old and wise. She stares at the tree and wonders what it knows.
+
+"Hello, tree," she says softly. "You are very big and strong. You are very intelligent. Do you have a name?"
+
+The tree does not answer. It does not move. It does not make a sound. But Anna feels something. She feels a warm and gentle breeze. She feels a tickle on her cheek. She feels a smile in her heart.
+
+She thinks the tree is saying hello back. She thinks the tree is happy to have a friend. She smiles and hugs the root. She feels the tree hug her back.
+
+Ben watches Anna and the tree. He does not feel the breeze or the tickle or the smile. He thinks Anna is silly. He thinks the tree is just a tree. He shakes his head and walks away.
+
+He does not understand. He does not see. He does not know.
+Ben and Lily are squirrels. They like to play in the park. They see a big nut on a tree. They want the nut.
+
+"Let's race to the nut!" Ben says. "The one who gets there first wins the nut!"
+
+"OK!" Lily says. "Ready, set, go!"
+
+They run and jump on the branches. They are fast and clever. But the nut is high and far. They have to work hard.
+
+Ben is almost there. He reaches for the nut. But Lily is faster. She jumps over him and grabs the nut.
+
+"Ha! I win!" Lily says. "This is my nut!"
+
+Ben is sad. He wanted the nut too. He looks at Lily. She is happy. She has a big smile.
+
+"Can I have some of the nut?" Ben asks. "Please?"
+
+Lily thinks. She likes Ben. He is her friend. She does not want him to be sad.
+
+"OK," Lily says. "You can have some of the nut. We can share it."
+
+"Thank you!" Ben says. "You are cool!"
+
+They sit on a branch and eat the nut. They are happy. They have a nut and a friend. They win.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to search for bugs and flowers. They had a jar to put the bugs in. They wanted to see how many they could find.
+
+They saw a big tree with many leaves. They thought there might be bugs under the leaves. They went to the tree and lifted some leaves. They saw a shiny thing. It was unknown to them. It looked like a ring.
+
+"Wow, what is this?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is magic," Lily said.
+
+"Can I put it on my finger?" Ben asked.
+
+"Okay, but be careful. It might do something," Lily said.
+
+Ben put the ring on his finger. He felt a tickle. He looked at his hand. It was green!
+
+"Ah! What happened?" Ben shouted.
+
+Lily looked at Ben. She saw his green hand. She was scared.
+
+"Take it off! Take it off!" Lily said.
+
+Ben tried to take off the ring. But it was stuck. He pulled and pulled. But it did not move.
+
+"Help! Help!" Ben cried.
+
+Lily ran to get their mom. She hoped she could help Ben. She did not like the unknown ring. She wished they never found it.
+Anna was a good girl. She liked to listen to her mom and dad. They said she was obedient. She had a dog named Max. Max was a big dog. He liked to play with Anna and lick her face.
+
+One day, Anna and Max went outside. They saw a big red door. Anna was curious. She wanted to see what was behind the door. She ran to the door and tried to open it. But the door was locked.
+
+"Anna, come back!" Max barked. He knew the door was not safe. He followed Anna and tried to pull her away.
+
+But Anna did not listen. She was stubborn. She found a hole in the door. She put her hand in the hole. She felt something soft and furry. She smiled. She thought it was a toy.
+
+But it was not a toy. It was a cat. The cat was scared. It did not like Anna's hand. It bit Anna's hand. Anna screamed. She pulled her hand out of the hole. It was bleeding.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Anna cried. She ran to Max. Max licked her hand. He wanted to make her feel better.
+
+"Anna, are you okay?" Mom and Dad came out. They heard Anna's scream. They saw her hand. They were worried.
+
+"Mom, Dad, a cat bit me!" Anna sobbed. She showed them her hand.
+
+"Oh, no, Anna, that's not good. Let's go inside and clean your hand. You need a band-aid." Mom said. She picked up Anna and hugged her.
+
+"Dad, can you bring Max inside? He's a good dog. He tried to save me." Anna said. She looked at Max. She loved him.
+
+"Of course, Anna. Max is a very obedient dog. He deserves a treat." Dad said. He patted Max and followed Mom and Anna inside.
+
+Anna learned a lesson. She learned to be obedient like Max. She learned not to touch things she did not know. She learned that cats can bite. She said sorry to the cat. She hoped the cat was okay. She was glad she had Max. He was her best friend.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They run, jump, slide and swing. They are happy.
+
+One day, they see a big truck in the park. The truck has many bottles of juice. The truck man says, "Who wants some juice? I have apple, orange and grape juice. Come and get some!"
+
+Lily and Ben love juice. They run to the truck. They say, "We want juice, please!"
+
+The truck man smiles. He gives them each a bottle of juice. He says, "Here you go, kids. Enjoy your juice!"
+
+Lily and Ben say, "Thank you, truck man!" They open their bottles and drink their juice. They like their juice. It is sweet and cold. They are happy.
+
+They share their juice with their friends. They all drink and play. They have a fun day in the park. They are happy.
+Tim and Mia went to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, but their favorite was the monkey. The monkey was brown and hairy, and he liked to swing on the vines and make funny noises.
+
+"Look, he is joking with us!" Tim said, when the monkey stuck out his tongue and winked at them.
+
+"Can we joke with him too?" Mia asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. He is fragile, like a baby. We don't want to hurt him or make him sad," Mom said.
+
+Tim and Mia nodded. They waved their hands and smiled at the monkey. The monkey waved back and smiled too. Then he threw a banana peel at them and laughed.
+
+"Hey, that's not nice!" Tim said, dodging the peel.
+
+"It's okay, he is just playing. He likes you," Dad said.
+
+Tim and Mia laughed too. They thought the monkey was very funny and clever. They wanted to be his friends.
+
+"Can we give him a hug?" Mia asked.
+
+"No, sweetie. He is too far away, and he might not like it. But you can blow him a kiss," Mom said.
+
+Tim and Mia blew kisses to the monkey. The monkey caught them and blew them back. Then he made a heart shape with his hands and pointed at them.
+
+"Aww, he loves us!" Mia said.
+
+"Yes, he does. And we love him too," Tim said.
+
+They waved goodbye to the monkey and went to see the other animals. But they never forgot their new friend, the joking monkey.
+Lily and Ben like to play at the park. They like to slide, swing, and run. One day, they see a big purple oven in the park. It is shiny and has buttons and a door.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Lily says. "What is it?"
+
+"I don't know," Ben says. "Maybe it is a toy oven. Can we play with it?"
+
+They run to the oven and touch it. It is warm and makes a beep sound. They open the door and see a cake inside. It smells good and has sprinkles on top.
+
+"Yummy!" Lily says. "Someone made a cake. Can we have some?"
+
+"I don't think so," Ben says. "It is not ours. Maybe someone left it here by mistake. We should wait and see."
+
+They sit by the oven and wait. They see other kids playing and birds flying. They hear a dog barking and a car honking. They get bored and hungry.
+
+"Can we have some cake now?" Lily asks. "Please?"
+
+"No, Lily," Ben says. "We have to be good. Maybe the owner will come soon."
+
+They wait some more. They see a lady walking to the oven. She has a purple apron and a purple hat. She smiles and waves at them.
+
+"Hello, kids," she says. "Do you like my oven?"
+
+"Yes, it is very nice," Ben says. "Did you make the cake?"
+
+"Yes, I did," she says. "It is a special cake for a special day. Do you know what day it is?"
+
+"No, what day is it?" Lily asks.
+
+"It is Purple Day," she says. "It is a day to celebrate all things purple. Purple is my favorite color. What is yours?"
+
+Lily and Ben think for a moment. They look at the oven, the cake, the apron, and the hat. They smile and say together:
+
+"Purple!"
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play pretend. One day, they found a big mop in the garage. They decided to use it as a car.
+
+"Let's drive to the park," Lily said. She held the mop handle like a steering wheel. Tom sat behind her and made vroom noises.
+
+They drove around the garage, dodging boxes and bikes. They pretended to see trees and flowers and birds. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they heard a loud voice. It was Dad. He was looking for his mop.
+
+"Hey, kids, what are you doing with my mop?" he asked. He was not angry, but surprised.
+
+"We are driving to the park, Dad," Lily said. "Do you want to come with us?"
+
+Dad smiled. He liked to play pretend too. He took another mop from the shelf and joined them.
+
+"Sure, why not?" he said. "But first, let's clean the garage a little bit. It's very messy."
+
+They agreed. They used the mops to sweep the floor and dust the shelves. They made the garage look nice and tidy.
+
+Then, they drove to the park again. They saw swings and slides and a pond. They played and laughed and had a picnic.
+
+They had a peaceful day. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben are hungry. They want to eat some snacks. They go to the kitchen and look at the fridge. The fridge is big and white. It has a lot of food inside.
+
+Lily opens the fridge and sees some cheese. She likes cheese. She takes a piece and eats it. It is yummy. Ben opens the fridge and sees some juice. He likes juice. He takes a bottle and drinks it. It is sweet.
+
+But they forget to close the fridge. The fridge is not happy. It makes a loud noise. It goes beep beep beep. It wants them to close the door.
+
+Lily and Ben hear the noise. They are scared. They think the fridge is angry. They run to the living room and find Mom.
+
+"Mom, Mom, the fridge is loud!" Lily tells Mom.
+
+"What? The fridge is loud?" Mom asks.
+
+"Yes, it goes beep beep beep. It is mad at us!" Ben tells Mom.
+
+Mom goes to the kitchen and sees the fridge. She sees the open door and the cheese and the juice. She understands.
+
+"Oh, you two. You left the fridge open. That's why it is loud. It is not mad at you. It is just telling you to close the door. Come on, let's go and close it." Mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben follow Mom. They close the fridge door. The noise stops. The fridge is quiet. It is happy.
+
+"Sorry, fridge. We will not leave you open again." Lily and Ben say.
+
+"Good. Now, let's go and wash your hands. And next time, ask me before you take any snacks, okay?" Mom says.
+
+"Okay, Mom. We love you." Lily and Ben say.
+
+They hug Mom and go to wash their hands. They are not hungry anymore. They are happy.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a red ball and a blue bike. They take turns to kick the ball and ride the bike.
+
+One day, they see a big wreck in the park. It is a car that is broken and dirty. It has no wheels and no windows. It looks scary.
+
+"Whoa, look at that wreck!" Tom says. "I wonder what happened to it."
+
+"Maybe it was in a crash," Jen says. "Or maybe a monster ate it."
+
+They go closer to the wreck. They want to touch it and see what is inside. But they are also a little afraid.
+
+"Be careful, Tom," Jen says. "It might be dangerous."
+
+"Don't worry, Jen," Tom says. "I'm brave. I'll show you."
+
+Tom climbs on the wreck. He tries to open the door. But it is stuck. He pushes harder. He hears a loud noise.
+
+Bang!
+
+The door falls off. Tom falls with it. He lands on the ground. He hurts his knee. He starts to cry.
+
+"Tom, are you okay?" Jen asks. She runs to him. She hugs him. She helps him get up.
+
+"I'm sorry, Jen," Tom says. "That was a bad idea. The wreck is not fun. It is mean."
+
+"It's okay, Tom," Jen says. "Let's go back to the ball and the bike. They are fun. They are nice."
+
+They leave the wreck. They go back to their toys. They play some more. They have fun.
+
+They are hungry. They go home. They have lunch. They are happy.
+Lily was proud of her new dress. It was pink and had flowers on it. She wanted to show it to her friends at school. She put a label on it with her name, so no one would take it by mistake.
+
+But when she got to school, she saw a big dog outside the gate. The dog was barking and growling. It had sharp teeth and a long tail. Lily was scared of the dog. She trembled and hid behind a tree.
+
+"Are you okay, Lily?" a voice asked. It was Ben, her friend. He was holding a ball. He saw the dog and smiled. "Don't be afraid, Lily. That's my dog, Rex. He is very friendly. He just wants to play."
+
+Ben threw the ball and Rex ran after it. He brought it back and wagged his tail. He licked Ben's face and then sniffed Lily's dress. He liked the flowers.
+
+"See, Lily? Rex is nice. He won't hurt you. Do you want to pet him?" Ben asked.
+
+Lily nodded. She came out from behind the tree and touched Rex's fur. It was soft and warm. Rex licked her hand and made a happy sound. Lily smiled and felt brave.
+
+"Wow, Lily, your dress is very pretty. I like the flowers. And I like your label. It has your name on it. Can I see?" Ben said.
+
+Lily showed him her label. She was proud of her dress and her name. She was also proud of herself for not being scared of Rex anymore.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. And Rex is a good dog. Can we play with him?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, Lily. Let's play with Rex. He likes to fetch and run and jump. Come on, Rex. Let's go!" Ben said.
+
+Lily and Ben ran with Rex to the playground. They had fun and laughed. They forgot about the school and the teacher and the other kids. They only cared about their dress, their ball, and their dog. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big, colorful tent. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+They walked to the tent and opened the flap. They saw a lot of toys and books. They also saw a big, furry monster. The monster had horns, teeth and claws. It was green and purple and yellow.
+
+"Hello, little ones," the monster said. "Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They wanted to run away. But the monster smiled and said, "Don't be afraid. I am a friendly monster. I provide fun and stories for children. Come, sit with me and I will show you."
+
+Lily and Ben were curious. They decided to give the monster a chance. They sat with the monster and played with the toys. The monster told them funny and exciting stories. They laughed and clapped.
+
+They had a lot of fun with the monster. They forgot to be scared. They made a new friend. The monster was happy too. He liked to have company. He gave them hugs and kisses.
+
+"Thank you, monster," Lily and Ben said. "You are very nice and colorful. We like you."
+
+"You are very welcome, little ones," the monster said. "You are very brave and sweet. I like you too. Come back anytime you want to play."
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were heroes and save the world from bad guys. Tom had a cape and a mask. Lily had a hat and a sword. They ran and jumped and shouted.
+
+"Look, there is a smelly monster!" Tom said, pointing to a big trash can. "We have to stop it!"
+
+"Let's go, hero Tom!" Lily said, following him. They ran to the trash can and Lily swung her sword. Tom threw his cape over the can and said, "Ha! We got you, monster!"
+
+But then they heard a loud bark. A big dog came out of the trash can, shaking off the cape. It was brown and dirty and had a collar. It looked angry and scared.
+
+"Whoa, that's not a monster, that's a dog!" Tom said, backing away.
+
+"Maybe it's a lost dog," Lily said, feeling sorry for it. "Maybe it's looking for its home."
+
+The dog growled and showed its teeth. It did not like the children. It did not want to play. It wanted to be alone.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Tom said, trying to be brave. "You don't belong here!"
+
+But the dog did not go away. It barked louder and louder. It jumped at the children. They screamed and ran away. They dropped their cape and sword and hat and mask. They ran to their mom, who was sitting on a bench.
+
+"Mom, mom, there's a smelly dog in the trash can!" Tom said, hugging her.
+
+"It tried to bite us, mom!" Lily said, crying.
+
+Their mom looked at the trash can and saw the dog. She saw the collar and the tag. She saw the name and the phone number. She took out her phone and called the number.
+
+"Hello, is this Bob?" she said. "I think I found your dog. He's in the park, in a trash can. He's very smelly and scared. Can you come and get him?"
+
+She listened to the voice on the phone. She smiled and nodded. She said, "OK, we'll wait for you. Don't worry, he's safe."
+
+She hung up the phone and told the children, "That dog is not a monster, he's a hero. He ran away from a bad man who hurt him. He was looking for his home. His owner is coming to get him. He's very happy and thankful."
+
+Tom and Lily looked at the dog. They felt sorry for him. They wanted to help him. They went to the trash can and said, "Sorry, dog. We didn't know. You're a hero, dog. We're sorry we scared you."
+
+The dog looked at the children. He wagged his tail. He licked their faces. He was not angry and scared anymore. He was happy and thankful.
+
+They played with the dog until his owner came. His owner was a nice man who hugged the dog and thanked the children and their mom. He said, "You're heroes, too. You saved my dog. He belongs with me. Thank you so much."
+
+They said, "You're welcome. We're glad he's OK. He's a good dog."
+
+They said goodbye to the dog and his owner. They picked up their cape and sword and hat and mask. They went back to playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were heroes and save the world from bad guys. But they also liked to help real heroes and make new friends.
+Lily liked to sail. She had a small boat that she made with her dad. It was red and white and had a paper sail. She took it to the park with her mom and played in the pond. She liked to watch the boat go with the wind and the water.
+
+One day, the wind was very strong. Lily's boat sailed very fast and far. Lily ran after it, but she could not catch it. The boat sailed out of the pond and into the street. Lily was scared. She did not want to lose her boat. She did not want to go to the street. There were many big cars and loud noises.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, help me!" Lily cried. She was confused and sad.
+
+Mommy heard Lily and ran to her. She saw the boat in the street. She waited for the cars to stop and then she got the boat. She gave it to Lily and hugged her.
+
+"It's okay, Lily. I have your boat. You are safe. You should not go to the street. It is dangerous. You should stay with me in the park. Do you understand?" Mommy said.
+
+Lily nodded and said sorry. She was happy to have her boat and her mommy. She did not want to sail in the street again. She wanted to sail in the pond. She learned a lesson that day.
+Tom and Mia like to build with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. They can make houses, towers, cars, and animals with their blocks. They have fun playing with their blocks every day.
+
+One day, they decide to build a big castle with their blocks. They work hard and use all their blocks. They make walls, doors, windows, and a flag. They are very proud of their castle. They want to show it to their mom and dad.
+
+"Look, mom and dad, we built a castle!" they say. "It is very big and pretty. Do you like it?"
+
+Mom and dad come to see their castle. They smile and say, "Wow, what a wonderful castle! You are very clever and creative. We like it very much."
+
+Tom and Mia are happy. They hug their mom and dad and say, "Thank you. We love you."
+
+But then, something bad happens. A big wind comes and blows their castle away. The blocks fly in the air and fall on the floor. The castle is gone. Tom and Mia are sad. They cry and say, "Oh no, our castle! It is broken. We worked so hard. Why did the wind do that?"
+
+Mom and dad hug them and say, "It's okay, don't cry. The wind didn't mean to break your castle. It was an accident. Sometimes bad things happen, but we can fix them. We can help you build another castle, or something else. You still have your blocks and your imagination. You can make anything you want."
+
+Tom and Mia stop crying and wipe their tears. They look at their blocks and their mom and dad. They say, "Okay, thank you. We still have our blocks and our imagination. We can make anything we want. We are not sad anymore. We are happy."
+
+They smile and start to build again. They have fun playing with their blocks and their mom and dad. They forget about the bad event and enjoy the good one. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in their room. They had many toys and books and pictures. They liked to attach pictures to the wall with tape. They made a big wall of pictures.
+
+One day, they found a new picture in a box. It was a picture of a scary monster. It had big teeth and red eyes and sharp claws. Tom and Lily were frightened of the picture. They did not want to attach it to the wall.
+
+"Let's throw it away," Lily said.
+
+"No, let's hide it," Tom said.
+
+They looked for a place to hide the picture. They did not want to see it or touch it. They found a closet in the hall. They opened the door and put the picture inside. They closed the door and ran back to their room.
+
+They felt better. They played with their toys and books and pictures. They forgot about the scary picture.
+
+But the picture did not forget. It was angry and lonely. It wanted to be on the wall with the other pictures. It wanted to scare Tom and Lily. It waited for the night.
+
+When Tom and Lily were asleep, the picture came out of the closet. It crawled on the floor and climbed on the wall. It found a spot next to Tom's bed. It attached itself to the wall with its claws. It smiled and waited.
+
+The next morning, Tom woke up and saw the picture. He screamed and jumped out of bed. Lily woke up and saw the picture. She screamed and hid under the covers. The picture laughed and showed its teeth.
+
+Tom and Lily were very frightened. They ran out of their room and called their mom and dad. They told them about the picture. Mom and dad came and saw the picture. They were surprised and angry.
+
+"Who put this picture here?" mom asked.
+
+"Not us, not us," Tom and Lily said.
+
+"Then who did?" dad asked.
+
+"The picture did, the picture did," Tom and Lily said.
+
+Mom and dad did not believe them. They thought Tom and Lily were lying. They took the picture off the wall and threw it away. They told Tom and Lily to be honest and not to play with scary things.
+
+Tom and Lily were sad and confused. They did not lie. They did not play with the picture. The picture played with them. They did not understand. They hugged each other and hoped the picture would not come back.
+Lily and Ben are playing with their dog Max in the garden. Max is a lively dog who likes to run and jump and bark. He has a red collar with a bell that jingles when he moves.
+
+Lily and Ben have a big bucket of water and some cups. They pretend to make tea and pour water into the cups. They give some water to Max, too. He drinks it and wags his tail.
+
+"More tea, Max?" Lily asks. She pours more water into his cup. Max licks her hand and barks.
+
+Ben laughs and pours water on Max's head. Max shakes his head and sprays water everywhere. He chases Ben around the garden.
+
+"Stop, Max, stop!" Ben shouts. He runs to Lily and hides behind her. Max jumps on them and licks their faces.
+
+Lily and Ben giggle and hug Max. They love their lively dog with the red collar.
+One day, a bird came to the window of a little girl's room. The bird was blue and yellow and had a long tail. The little girl liked the bird and wanted to play with it.
+
+"Hello, bird," the little girl said. "Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+The bird nodded and flew into the room. It landed on the little girl's bed and looked at her with bright eyes.
+
+"Yes, I want to be your friend," the bird said. "You are very kind and gentle. What is your name?"
+
+"My name is Lily," the little girl said. "What is your name?"
+
+"My name is Sky," the bird said. "I like to fly in the sky and see the clouds and the sun. Do you like to fly?"
+
+Lily shook her head. "I can't fly," she said. "I have no wings. I have feet and toes. See?" She showed her toes to the bird.
+
+Sky tilted his head and smiled. "You have very cute toes," he said. "But you can still fly with me. I can carry you on my back and show you the sky. It is very peaceful and beautiful. Do you want to try?"
+
+Lily nodded. She was curious and excited. She climbed on the bird's back and held on to his feathers. Sky flapped his wings and flew out of the window. Lily felt the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She saw the trees and the flowers and the houses below. She saw the clouds and the rainbows and the stars above. She felt happy and free.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing," Lily said. "Thank you, Sky. You are the best friend ever."
+
+"You are welcome, Lily," Sky said. "You are the best friend ever, too."
+Lily and Ben like to play with blocks. They build tall structures with different colors and shapes. They are proud of their creations and show them to their mom and dad.
+
+One day, it is raining outside. Lily and Ben are bored and want to play with something else. They see a big box in the garage. It is full of old clothes and toys. They decide to make a fort with the box and the clothes.
+
+They drag the box to the living room and empty it on the floor. They use the clothes to make a roof and a door. They use the toys to decorate their fort. They crawl inside and pretend they are in a castle.
+
+"Look at our fort, mom!" Lily says. "It is the best fort ever!"
+
+Mom smiles and says, "It is very nice, but please be careful. Don't make a mess."
+
+Lily and Ben nod and continue to play. They have fun making noises and stories.
+
+But then, something bad happens. The rain gets heavier and louder. It starts to leak from the ceiling. Drops of water fall on the fort and soak the clothes and the toys. The fort gets wet and soggy.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily cries. "Our fort is ruined!"
+
+Ben is angry. He thinks it is not fair. He says, "Stupid rain! Go away!"
+
+He throws a toy at the ceiling. But the toy bounces back and hits him in the head. He starts to cry.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the wet fort and the crying Ben. She is not happy.
+
+"What did you do?" she asks. "Why did you throw a toy at the ceiling? You could have hurt yourself or broken something!"
+
+She picks up Ben and hugs him. She says, "I'm sorry your fort got soaked, but you have to be careful and respectful. You can't throw things when you are angry. You have to use your words and calm down."
+
+She helps Lily and Ben clean up the mess. She puts the clothes and the toys in a basket. She says, "Maybe we can make another fort later, when the rain stops. But for now, let's have a snack and read a book."
+
+Lily and Ben say they are sorry. They hug mom and say they love her. They have a snack and read a book. They feel better and wait for the sun to come out.
+Sam and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide on the grass. Sam had a new cap that his mom gave him. It was blue and had a big star on it. He was very proud of his original cap.
+
+"Look at my cap, Lily!" Sam said. "It is so cool and shiny!"
+
+Lily smiled and nodded. She thought Sam's cap was nice, but she liked her own cap better. It was pink and had flowers on it. She also got it from her mom. She thought her cap was more pretty and original.
+
+They ran to the swings and took turns pushing each other. They laughed and shouted as they swung higher and higher. Sam felt the wind in his hair and his cap on his head. He felt very happy.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Sam swung too high and lost his balance. He let go of the chain and flew off the swing. He landed on the ground with a thud. He felt pain in his knee and his elbow. He also felt his cap fly off his head and roll away.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Sam cried. He rubbed his knee and his elbow. He looked around for his cap. He saw it lying on the other side of the park, near a big tree. He felt very sad.
+
+Lily saw what happened and ran to Sam. She helped him get up and hugged him. She said, "Are you okay, Sam? That was a big fall. You are very brave."
+
+Sam sniffed and nodded. He said, "Thank you, Lily. You are very kind. But I lost my cap. It is my favorite cap. I want it back."
+
+Lily looked at the cap and said, "Don't worry, Sam. I will get it for you. Wait here, okay?"
+
+She ran to the cap and picked it up. She was about to bring it back to Sam, when she saw something shiny on the ground. It was a coin. She thought it was very lucky to find a coin. She wanted to keep it for herself.
+
+She looked at the cap and the coin. She had an idea. She said, "Maybe I can trade the cap for the coin. Then I can buy something nice for me. Sam won't mind. He has many other caps. But I only have one coin."
+
+She put the cap on the ground and took the coin. She was about to run away, when she heard a voice.
+
+"Hey, that's my cap!" the voice said. "Give it back!"
+
+Lily turned around and saw a boy. He was bigger and older than her. He had a mean face and a dirty shirt. He was holding a stick. He was the one who dropped the coin. He saw Lily take his cap and his coin. He was very angry.
+
+He ran to Lily and grabbed the cap from the ground. He said, "This is my cap. I found it near the swing. It is very cool and original. You can't have it. And you can't have my coin either. Give it back, or I will hit you with my stick."
+
+Lily was scared. She didn't want to give up the coin. She didn't want to get hit by the stick. She said, "No, this is my coin. I found it near the tree. It is very shiny and lucky. You can't have it. And you can't have the cap either. It is Sam's cap. He got it from his mom. It is very nice and original. Give it back, or I will scream."
+
+The boy and Lily started to fight. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They didn't see Sam coming. He saw them fighting over his cap and his coin. He was very angry.
+
+He ran to them and said, "Stop it, stop it, stop it! That's my cap and my coin. You are both very bad. Give them back, or I will tell the teacher."
+
+The boy and Lily looked at Sam. They saw his hurt knee and his hurt elbow. They saw his sad face and his angry voice. They felt ashamed.
+
+They let go of the cap and the coin. They said, "Sorry, Sam. We are sorry. We didn't mean to take your things. We were greedy and mean. Please forgive us."
+
+Sam took his cap and his coin. He put his cap on his head and his coin in his pocket. He said, "Thank you, but I don't want to play with you anymore. You are not my friends. You are not nice. You are not original. You are just trouble."
+
+He turned around and walked away. He stumbled on a rock and almost fell. He caught himself and kept walking. He looked for Lily. He wanted to play with her. She was his friend. She
+Ben likes to play with his toy plane. He pretends he is a pilot and flies it around the room. He makes zoom and vroom sounds with his mouth. He likes to carry his plane with him everywhere he goes.
+
+One day, he goes to the park with his mom and dad. He sees a big slide and wants to go on it. He runs to the slide with his plane in his hand. He climbs up the ladder and sits on the top. He holds his plane in front of him and says, "Ready, set, go!"
+
+He slides down the slide very fast. He feels the wind in his hair and on his face. He laughs and smiles. He thinks he is flying like a pilot. But when he reaches the bottom, he sees that his plane is not with him. He looks up and sees his plane stuck on the slide. He feels sad and scared. He says, "Oh no! My plane!"
+
+He runs back to the ladder and tries to climb up again. But the ladder is too high and he is too small. He cannot reach the top. He says, "Help! Help! I want my plane!"
+
+His mom and dad hear him and come to him. They see his plane on the slide. They say, "Don't worry, Ben. We will get your plane for you." His dad climbs up the ladder and gets his plane. He carries it down and gives it to Ben. He says, "Here you go, Ben. Your plane is safe and sound."
+
+Ben hugs his plane and says, "Thank you, dad. You are the best." He kisses his plane and says, "I love you, plane. You are my friend." He says to his mom and dad, "Can we go on the slide again? But this time, I will hold my plane tight."
+
+His mom and dad say, "Sure, Ben. But be careful. And don't go too fast. The slide is slippery and you might fall. Go slow and have fun."
+
+Ben nods and says, "OK. I will go slow and have fun." He runs to the slide again with his plane in his hand. He slides down slowly and safely. He enjoys the ride and his plane. He is happy and proud. He is a pilot.
+Sara and Ben are playing with their toys on the rug in the living room. Sara has a doll and Ben has a car. They are having fun making noises and pretending to go on adventures.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud sound from the kitchen. It is Mom, who is cooking dinner. She says, "Oh no, the pot is boiling over! I need a towel!"
+
+Sara and Ben look at each other. They want to help Mom. They see a towel on the couch. Sara says, "Let's give Mom the towel. She will be happy."
+
+They run to the couch and grab the towel. But on the way to the kitchen, they spill a glass of water on the rug. The rug becomes wet and slippery. Sara and Ben fall down and drop the towel.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to see what happened. She sees Sara and Ben on the wet rug, holding the towel. She says, "Are you okay, my loves? What are you doing?"
+
+Sara and Ben feel sorry. They say, "We wanted to help you, Mom. We heard you request a towel. But we made a mess. We are sorry, Mom."
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them. She says, "Thank you for trying to help me, Sara and Ben. You are very sweet. But next time, please be careful. The rug is wet and you could get hurt. Let's dry the rug and the towel together. And then we can have dinner."
+Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play games. One day, they find a big box of cards. The cards have pictures of animals on them.
+
+"Let's play match!" Sam says. He takes some cards and puts them face down on the floor. "You have to find two cards that have the same animal."
+
+Ben nods. He likes animals. He picks a card and turns it over. It has a picture of a lion. He looks for another card with a lion. He finds one and puts them together.
+
+"Good job, Ben!" Sam says. "You found a match!"
+
+They take turns picking cards and finding matches. They see pictures of elephants, monkeys, birds, and more. They have fun.
+
+Then, they see a card with a picture of a man. The man has big muscles and a smile. He is holding a weight.
+
+"Who is this?" Ben asks. He does not know the man.
+
+Sam smiles. He knows the man. He points to a photo on the wall. It is the same man, but he looks old. He has gray hair and wrinkles.
+
+"That is Grandpa," Sam says. "He was a strong man when he was young. He liked to lift weights and show his muscles."
+
+Ben looks at the photo and the card. He sees they are the same. He puts them together.
+
+"I found a match!" he says. "Grandpa is a match!"
+
+Sam and Ben laugh. They love Grandpa. They finish the game and put the cards back in the box. They run to the kitchen to find Grandpa and give him a hug.
+Tim and Sam liked to play with their toy cars and trucks in the sandbox. They had a big crane that could lift and move things. They pretended to build roads and bridges and houses with the sand and stones.
+
+One day, a new boy came to the park. His name was Ben. He saw Tim and Sam playing with their crane and he wanted it. He ran to the sandbox and grabbed the crane from Tim's hands. He said, "This is mine now. You can't have it."
+
+Tim and Sam were very sad and angry. They said, "That's not fair. That's our crane. Give it back. You are rude."
+
+Ben did not listen. He laughed and said, "No, it's mine. I like it. You can't make me."
+
+Tim and Sam did not know what to do. They wanted their crane back, but Ben was bigger and stronger than them. They thought hard. How could they solve this problem?
+
+They had an idea. They saw a big pile of sand near the edge of the sandbox. They said to Ben, "Hey, Ben, do you want to see something cool? We can show you how to make a big hill with the crane. Come here."
+
+Ben was curious. He liked to make things with the sand. He followed Tim and Sam to the pile of sand. He put the crane down and said, "How do you make a hill?"
+
+Tim and Sam said, "You have to use the crane to scoop up the sand and put it on top of the pile. Like this." They showed him how to use the crane. Ben tried it. He liked it. He said, "This is fun. I can make a big hill."
+
+While Ben was busy with the crane, Tim and Sam quickly ran back to the other side of the sandbox. They grabbed their toy cars and trucks and ran away. They said, "Bye, Ben. Have fun with your hill. We have our crane back. You can't have it."
+
+Ben looked up and saw Tim and Sam leaving. He was shocked and angry. He said, "Hey, wait. That's not fair. That's my crane. Give it back. You are rude."
+
+But Tim and Sam did not listen. They laughed and said, "No, it's ours. We like it. You can't make us."
+
+They ran to their mom and dad and told them what happened. Their mom and dad were proud of them. They said, "You did a good job. You solved the problem without fighting. You were smart and brave. Ben was rude. He should learn to share and be nice."
+
+Tim and Sam smiled and hugged their mom and dad. They said, "Thank you. We love you. And we love our crane."
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, Tom has a new toy. It is a clock. The clock can make sounds and show numbers.
+
+"Look, Anna, this is my clock. It can say tick-tock and beep-beep. Do you want to play with it?" Tom asks.
+
+Anna nods. She likes the clock. She takes it from Tom and presses a button. The clock says beep-beep and shows a number. Anna smiles.
+
+"Wow, this is fun. What number is this?" Anna asks.
+
+Tom looks at the clock. He knows some numbers. He says, "This is six. Six is a big number. Do you know what six means?"
+
+Anna shakes her head. She does not know what six means. She says, "No, I don't know. What does six mean?"
+
+Tom thinks. He remembers what his mom told him. He says, "Six means it is time to eat. Mom always sends us food at six. She makes soup and bread and cheese. Do you like soup and bread and cheese?"
+
+Anna nods. She likes soup and bread and cheese. She says, "Yes, I like soup and bread and cheese. They are yummy. But I don't like sour things. Sour things make my face funny. Do you like sour things?"
+
+Tom shakes his head. He does not like sour things. He says, "No, I don't like sour things. They are yucky. They make my tongue hurt. Once, I ate a lemon. It was sour. I did not like it."
+
+Anna laughs. She says, "I ate a lemon too. It was sour. I did not like it either. But it was funny to see your face. You looked like this." She makes a face like she ate a lemon.
+
+Tom laughs too. He says, "You looked like this too." He makes a face like he ate a lemon.
+
+They laugh and play with the clock. They forget about the time. They hear a voice from the kitchen.
+
+"Tom, Anna, it is six. Come and eat. I have soup and bread and cheese for you. And no sour things." It is Tom's mom.
+
+They run to the kitchen. They are hungry. They say, "Thank you, mom. We are coming. We like soup and bread and cheese. And we like your clock. It is fun."
+Tom and Lily liked to play with their toy band. They had a drum, a guitar, a flute and a bell. They made loud and fun sounds with their band. They played in the living room every day.
+
+One day, Mom came home from work. She was very tired and had a headache. She wanted to rest on the couch. But Tom and Lily were playing with their band. They made a lot of noise. Mom could not rest. She was angry.
+
+"Tom and Lily, please stop playing with your band. You are making too much noise. I need to rest. You are hurting my head." Mom said.
+
+"But Mom, we like to play with our band. It is fun. We are not hurting your head." Tom said.
+
+"Yes, Mom, we are not hurting your head. We are making music. You like music." Lily said.
+
+"No, I do not like music right now. I like quiet. Please play with something else. Or go to your room. Or go outside. Just stop playing with your band." Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily did not want to stop playing with their band. They liked their band. They did not want to play with something else. They did not want to go to their room. They did not want to go outside. They wanted to stay in the living room. They were angry.
+
+They decided to play with their band even louder. They banged the drum, strummed the guitar, blew the flute and rang the bell. They made a lot of noise. They wanted to make Mom angry too.
+
+But then, Dad came home from work. He heard the noise. He saw Mom on the couch. He saw Tom and Lily with their band. He knew what was going on. He wanted to prevent a fight. He had an idea.
+
+"Hey, Tom and Lily, I have a surprise for you. Do you want to see it?" Dad said.
+
+"What is it, Dad?" Tom and Lily said.
+
+"It is a new toy. It is very cool. It is in the car. Come with me. I will show you." Dad said.
+
+Tom and Lily were curious. They wanted to see the new toy. They forgot about their band. They followed Dad to the car.
+
+Mom was happy. She thanked Dad. She closed her eyes. She rested on the couch. She enjoyed the quiet.
+Tom and Mia are best friends. They like to play in the park every day. Today, they see a big slide. It is very high and shiny. Tom is enthusiastic. He wants to go on the slide. He runs to the ladder and climbs up.
+
+Mia is scared. She does not want to go on the slide. She thinks it is too high and fast. She stays on the ground and watches Tom. She trembles a little. She hopes Tom will be okay.
+
+Tom reaches the top of the slide. He looks down and smiles. He sits on the slide and pushes himself. He slides down very fast. He feels the wind in his hair and the sun on his face. He laughs and shouts, "Whee!"
+
+Mia hears Tom's laugh and shout. She looks up and sees him sliding down. He looks happy and brave. She feels a little less scared. She thinks maybe the slide is not so bad. She walks to the ladder and climbs up.
+
+Tom slides to the end of the slide. He jumps off and lands on his feet. He turns around and sees Mia coming up. He is surprised and proud. He waits for her at the bottom of the slide. He says, "Hi, Mia! Do you want to try the slide? It is fun!"
+
+Mia reaches the top of the slide. She looks down and sees Tom waiting for her. She feels nervous and excited. She sits on the slide and holds on. She slides down very fast. She feels the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She screams and smiles, "Whee!"
+
+Tom and Mia slide to each other. They hug and laugh. They are happy and proud. They rub their noses and say, "We did it! We are brave!" They decide to go on the slide again. They run to the ladder and climb up. They are enthusiastic. They like the slide. They have fun.
+Lila was a sweet princess who loved to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was a pink one with long hair and a shiny dress. She called her doll Rose and took her everywhere.
+
+One day, Lila and Rose went to the garden to pick some flowers. Lila saw a big red rose and wanted to give it to her doll. She cut the rose with her scissors and put it in Rose's hand. "You are so pretty, Rose," she said. "This rose is for you."
+
+But Lila did not know that roses do not last long. After a few days, the rose started to turn brown and dry. It smelled bad and had bugs on it. Lila did not like it and wanted to throw it away. But Rose did not want to let go of the rose. She held it tight and said, "No, no, Lila. This is my rose. You gave it to me. I love it."
+
+Lila was sad and did not understand. She tried to pull the rose from Rose's hand, but Rose did not let go. She cried and said, "Please, Rose, let go of the rose. It is rot. It is not good for you. It will make you sick."
+
+But Rose did not listen. She kept holding the rose and said, "No, no, Lila. This is my rose. You gave it to me. I love it."
+
+Lila did not know what to do. She wanted to help her doll, but she did not want to hurt her. She wished she had never given her the rose. She wished she had given her something else. Something that would not rot. Something that would make her happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with cars and trucks. Lily has a pink car and Ben has a blue truck. They pretend to be drivers and go on long trips.
+
+One day, they find a big white car in the park. It has flowers and ribbons on it. Lily and Ben think it is very pretty. They want to play with it.
+
+"Can we drive this car?" Lily asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it belongs to someone." Ben says.
+
+They look around and see a man and a woman in nice clothes. They are holding hands and smiling. They have rings on their fingers.
+
+"Who are they?" Lily wonders.
+
+"They are getting married." Ben says. He knows this word because his big sister got married last year.
+
+"What is married?" Lily asks.
+
+"It means they love each other and want to be together forever." Ben explains.
+
+"That sounds nice. Can we get married too?" Lily says.
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He likes Lily. She is his best friend.
+
+"Okay. But we have to ask them first." He says.
+
+They run to the man and the woman and say hello. They tell them they like their car and ask if they can play with it.
+
+The man and the woman laugh and say yes. They think Lily and Ben are very cute.
+
+"Can we get married too?" Lily asks.
+
+The man and the woman look at each other and smile.
+
+"Sure. Why not?" The woman says.
+
+She gives Lily a flower and the man gives Ben a ribbon. They tie them around their fingers.
+
+"There. Now you are married." The man says.
+
+Lily and Ben hug and say thank you. They get in the car and drive away. They are happy. They are married.
+Lily and Ben were going on a trip with Mom and Dad. They were very happy. They packed their bags and toys and got in the car. Mom said they were going to see Grandma and Grandpa, who lived far away.
+
+"Are we there yet?" Ben asked many times. He was bored. He wanted to play with Grandma's dog, Spot. Spot was brown and fluffy and liked to run and jump.
+
+"Not yet, honey," Mom said. "We have to drive for a long time. Why don't you look out the window and see the trees and the cows and the birds?"
+
+Lily looked out the window. She saw many things. She saw a big bridge over a river. She saw a red barn with a horse. She saw a church with a cross. She remembered what Mom had taught her about God and Jesus and how they loved her.
+
+"Mom, can I pray?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, sweetie," Mom said. "You can pray anytime you want. What do you want to pray for?"
+
+Lily closed her eyes and folded her hands. She said, "Dear God, thank you for this trip and for Mom and Dad and Ben and Grandma and Grandpa and Spot. Please keep us safe and happy. Please help me to be good and kind and brave. Please bless everyone in the world. Amen."
+
+Mom smiled and kissed Lily's head. "That was a beautiful prayer, Lily. I'm sure God heard you and loves you very much."
+
+Lily opened her eyes and smiled back. She felt warm and peaceful. She hugged her teddy bear and looked out the window again. She saw a rainbow in the sky. She thought it was a sign from God. She was very happy.
+Lily liked to jump. She jumped on her bed, on the sofa, on the grass. She jumped when she was happy, when she was bored, when she wanted to play. But sometimes, jumping was difficult.
+
+One day, she wanted to jump over a big rock in the park. She ran and ran and tried to jump, but she fell and hurt her knee. She cried and cried and looked for her parent.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, I fell and it hurts!" she shouted.
+
+Her mommy heard her and ran to her. She picked her up and hugged her.
+
+"Shh, shh, it's okay, Lily. Let me see your knee. Oh, you have a little scratch. It's not bad. I have a band-aid for you. Here, put this on your knee and it will feel better."
+
+"Thank you, mommy. You are the best. Can I still jump?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course you can, sweetie. But be careful. Some things are too big or too hard to jump over. You have to look before you jump. And if you fall again, I will always be here to help you. Do you understand?" her mommy said.
+
+"Yes, mommy. I understand. I love you. Can we jump together?" Lily said.
+
+"I love you too, Lily. And yes, we can jump together. Come on, let's go and find a nice spot to jump. But not on the rock, okay?" her mommy said.
+
+They held hands and walked to a soft patch of grass. They jumped and laughed and had fun. Lily was happy. Jumping was not so difficult when she had her mommy with her.
+Ben and Mia like to play knights and dragons. They have a big box with many things to dress up and pretend. One day, they find a new thing in the box. It is a shield. It is round and shiny and has a star on it.
+
+"Wow, look at this shield!" Ben says. "It is so original. I have never seen one like it before."
+
+"Can I see it?" Mia asks. "I want to try it too."
+
+Ben gives the shield to Mia. She holds it in front of her and smiles. "It is very pretty. And it feels strong. I can use it to store my toys."
+
+They decide to play with the shield. They take turns being the knight and the dragon. They run around the room and make loud noises. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they hear a voice. It is Mom. She comes into the room and sees the shield.
+
+"Where did you get that shield?" Mom asks. "It is not yours. It is mine. I made it when I was a little girl. It is very special to me."
+
+Ben and Mia look at Mom. They feel sorry. They did not know the shield was hers.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom," they say. "We did not mean to take your shield. We just found it in the box and we wanted to play with it. It is very original and beautiful."
+
+Mom smiles. She is not angry. She is happy that they like her shield.
+
+"It is okay, my loves," she says. "I am glad you like my shield. You can play with it, but you have to be careful. And you have to ask me first. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben and Mia nod. They understand. They hug Mom and say thank you.
+
+Mom hugs them back. She is proud of them. She says they can keep the shield in the box, but they have to store it well. She says she will tell them the story of how she made the shield when they are older.
+
+Ben and Mia are happy. They have a new thing to play with. And they have a new story to hear. They love Mom and her original shield.
+Lily likes to call the birds in the park. She has a bag of seeds that she throws on the grass. She says, "Come, come, birds! I have food for you!" The birds fly down and eat the seeds. Lily smiles and claps her hands.
+
+One day, Lily sees a new bird. It is big and black and has a yellow beak. Lily thinks it is pretty. She throws some seeds to it and says, "Hello, bird! What is your name?" The bird does not eat the seeds. It looks at Lily and makes a loud noise. "Caw, caw, caw!"
+
+Lily is scared. She runs to her mom and says, "Mom, mom, the bird is mean! It does not want to be my friend!" Her mom hugs her and says, "Don't worry, Lily. That is a crow. Crows are not nice birds. They are bitter and greedy. They do not like to share. They only want to take things from others."
+
+Lily feels sad. She says, "But I wanted to be nice to the crow. I wanted to give it some seeds." Her mom says, "I know, Lily. You are a good girl. But not all birds are like you. Some birds are friendly and some birds are not. You have to be careful and stay away from the bitter birds."
+
+Lily nods. She says, "Okay, mom. I will only call the nice birds. Like the sparrows and the robins and the pigeons. They are my friends." Her mom says, "That's right, Lily. They are your friends. And they like your seeds very much." Lily smiles and says, "Come, come, birds! I have more food for you!" The nice birds fly down and eat the seeds. Lily smiles and claps her hands.
+Lily was anxious. She wanted to finish her sock. She was making it for her mom. Her mom was sick and cold. Lily wanted to make her warm and happy.
+
+She used big needles and soft wool. She followed the pattern that her grandma showed her. She made a loop, then another loop, then another loop. She made many loops. She made a long sock.
+
+But she was not done. She had to close the sock. She had to make a toe. She did not know how to make a toe. She looked at the other sock. It had a toe. How did grandma make it?
+
+She heard a knock on the door. It was grandma. She came to visit mom and Lily.
+
+"Hello, Lily. What are you doing?" grandma asked.
+
+"I'm making a sock for mom. But I don't know how to make a toe. Can you help me?" Lily said.
+
+"Of course, I can help you. You are doing a great job. Let me show you how to make a toe. It's easy. You just have to make fewer loops and pull them tight. Like this." grandma said.
+
+She took the needle and the wool and showed Lily how to make a toe. Lily watched and learned. She tried to do the same. She made a toe. She finished her sock.
+
+"Wow, Lily. You did it. You finished your sock. It's beautiful. Mom will love it. You are a very good knitter. I'm proud of you." grandma said.
+
+"Thank you, grandma. You are a very good teacher. I'm happy. Can we give the sock to mom now?" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, we can. Let's go and see mom. She will be very happy too. She will feel warm and cozy. She will hug you and thank you. She will say you are a very sweet daughter." grandma said.
+
+They went to mom's room. They gave her the sock. Mom was very happy. She felt warm and cozy. She hugged Lily and thanked her. She said she was a very sweet daughter. Lily smiled. She was not anxious anymore. She was glad. She finished her sock.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tap in the park. The tap is for water. Anna and Ben want to see the water.
+
+They run to the tap. Ben tries to turn the tap. But the tap is too hard. Ben is weak. He cannot turn the tap. He says, "Anna, help me. I want to see the water."
+
+Anna tries to help Ben. She pushes the tap with her hands. But the tap is still too hard. Anna is weak too. She cannot turn the tap. She says, "Ben, what can we do? I want to see the water too."
+
+They think for a moment. Then they have an idea. They see a big stick on the ground. The stick is strong. They pick up the stick. They carry the stick to the tap. They use the stick to turn the tap. The tap makes a noise. The water comes out. Anna and Ben are happy. They say, "Yay! We did it! We can see the water!"
+
+They play with the water. They splash and laugh. They have fun. They are good friends. They share the stick and the tap. They are not weak anymore. They are strong.
+Anna loved shrimp. She liked to eat them with rice and sauce. She liked to peel their shells and dip them in ketchup. She liked to count their legs and eyes. She liked to pretend they were her friends.
+
+One day, Anna went to the store with her mom. She saw a big tank with many shrimp inside. They were alive and swimming. Anna wanted to play with them. She asked her mom if she could have one.
+
+"No, honey, those are not for playing. Those are for eating. We can buy some if you want, but we have to cook them first," her mom said.
+
+Anna did not like that. She did not want to cook her friends. She wanted to keep them as pets. She had an idea. She waited until her mom was looking at something else. She reached into the tank and grabbed a shrimp. She hid it in her pocket.
+
+Anna was happy. She had a new friend. She named him Bob. She talked to him in her pocket. She told him about her toys and her cat and her favorite color. She did not hear her mom calling her name.
+
+"Anna, where are you? It's time to go home," her mom said.
+
+Anna ran to her mom. She forgot about Bob. She got in the car with her mom. She did not notice that Bob was not moving anymore. He was not breathing. He was dead.
+
+When Anna got home, she remembered Bob. She took him out of her pocket. She saw that he was not alive. She was sad. She cried. She wished she had not taken him from the tank. She regretted her idea.
+
+She told her mom what she had done. Her mom was not angry. She was sorry. She hugged Anna and said, "I know you wanted to play with the shrimp, but they are not meant to be pets. They need water and air and food to live. You did not mean to hurt him, but you did. Next time, you have to listen to me and leave them alone. OK?"
+
+Anna nodded. She was sorry too. She was worried that she had hurt the other shrimp. She hoped they were OK. She said goodbye to Bob and buried him in the garden. She learned her lesson. She never took a shrimp from the tank again.
+Tom and Anna liked to play hide and seek in the garden. Tom was good at finding places to hide, but Anna was good at looking for him. One day, they played hide and seek after dinner, when it was getting dark.
+
+Tom ran behind the big tree and waited for Anna to count to ten. He was quiet and still, hoping she would not see him. He heard her voice getting closer and closer. "Where are you, Tom? I will find you!" she said.
+
+Tom smiled and held his breath. He saw Anna's shadow on the grass, but she did not see him. She walked past the tree and looked behind the bush. Tom thought he had won, but then he saw something else. A bright light appeared in the sky, above the tree. It was a star, shining very hard. Tom was amazed and forgot to hide.
+
+Anna turned around and saw the light too. She also saw Tom, staring at the sky. She ran to him and pointed at the star. "Look, Tom, a star! It is so pretty!" she said.
+
+Tom nodded and took her hand. They both looked at the star and wondered what it was. They felt happy and curious. They did not know that finding a star was more difficult than finding each other.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with blocks. They make a big building with many blocks. They are happy.
+
+But then, a big dog comes. The dog is not nice. The dog wants to play with the blocks too. The dog knocks down the building with his paw. The blocks fall and make a loud noise. Lily and Ben are sad.
+
+"Bad dog!" Lily says. "Go away! You broke our building!"
+
+The dog does not listen. The dog barks and runs around. The dog sees a hole in the ground. The hole is deep. The dog is curious. The dog jumps into the hole.
+
+"Help!" the dog says. "I am stuck! The hole is too deep!"
+
+Lily and Ben hear the dog. They are scared. But they are also kind. They want to help the dog.
+
+"Are you okay?" Ben says. "We will get you out."
+
+Lily and Ben find a rope. They tie the rope to a tree. They lower the rope into the hole. The dog grabs the rope with his teeth. Lily and Ben pull the rope. They pull hard. The dog comes out of the hole.
+
+"Thank you!" the dog says. "You are nice. I am sorry I broke your building."
+
+Lily and Ben smile. They are not mad. They are glad the dog is safe.
+
+"Do you want to play with us?" Lily says. "We can make a new building with the blocks."
+
+The dog nods. The dog is happy. He has new friends.
+
+Lily, Ben, and the dog play with the blocks. They make a new building. They have fun. The end.
+Ben and Lily liked to play in the woods behind their house. They liked to find sticks and stones and make forts and traps. One day, they saw a big pile of lumber near the road. It was wood that someone had cut from the trees.
+
+"Let's go see the lumber!" Ben said. "Maybe we can use it for our fort."
+
+"OK, but be careful," Lily said. "We don't want anyone to see us."
+
+They ran to the lumber and looked around. They saw no one. They climbed on the wood and pretended it was a ship. They made noises like pirates and sailors.
+
+"Ahoy, matey!" Ben shouted. "We have found the treasure!"
+
+"Shh, Ben, not so loud!" Lily whispered. "Someone might hear us."
+
+But it was too late. A big truck came down the road. It stopped near the lumber. A man got out. He had a hat and a jacket. He looked angry.
+
+"Hey, you kids, get off my lumber!" he yelled. "This is not a playground. This is my work."
+
+Ben and Lily were scared. They jumped off the wood and ran to the woods. They hid behind a bush. They hoped the man would not see them.
+
+"Where did they go?" the man said. He looked around. He did not see them. He shrugged and got back in his truck. He drove away.
+
+Ben and Lily remained hidden until the truck was gone. They were glad they were safe. They decided not to play with the lumber again.
+
+"Let's go back to our fort," Lily said. "It's more fun and more safe."
+
+"OK," Ben said. "But next time, let's be more quiet."
+
+They held hands and ran back to their fort. They played until their mom called them for dinner. They had a good day.
+Lila and Sam love to play with their kayak. It is a big, red boat that they can sit in and paddle on the water. They like to go to the lake with their dad and have fun.
+
+One day, they see a big sack on the shore. It is brown and has a rope on it. They wonder what is inside. They ask their dad if they can open it.
+
+"Sure, you can open it. But be careful, you don't know what is in there. It might be something nice, or it might be something bad." Dad says.
+
+Lila and Sam pull the rope and open the sack. They are surprised to see many shiny things inside. There are coins, rings, necklaces, and bracelets. They are all gold and silver and sparkle in the sun.
+
+"Wow, look at all these great things! They are so pretty and shiny! Where did they come from?" Lila says.
+
+"I don't know, maybe someone left them here by mistake. Or maybe they are treasure from a pirate ship. Do you want to keep some?" Sam says.
+
+Lila and Sam are happy and excited. They pick some of the things they like and put them in their pockets. They decide to leave the rest in the sack for someone else to find. They thank their dad and go back to their kayak. They paddle away, feeling like they have found a secret treasure.
+Lila and Ben are playing with their toy cars in the garden. They make vroom and beep sounds as they zoom around the grass and the dirt. They have fun pretending to be drivers and passengers.
+
+"Look, Lila, I have a big wheel!" Ben says, showing her his red car with a shiny silver wheel. "It can go very fast and make loud noises!"
+
+"Wow, Ben, that is a nice wheel!" Lila says, admiring his car. "Can I try it?"
+
+"Sure, Lila, you can try it. But be careful, it is very fast!" Ben says, handing her his car.
+
+Lila takes the car and starts to drive it on the grass. She likes how it feels in her hand and how it moves on the ground. She makes vroom and beep sounds too. She smiles and laughs.
+
+But then, she sees something on the grass. It is white and cold and sparkly. It is snow! Lila has never seen snow before. She is curious and excited. She stops driving the car and picks up some snow in her hand.
+
+"Look, Ben, it is snow!" Lila says, holding the snow. "It is so pretty and cold!"
+
+Ben looks at the snow too. He is surprised and happy. He drops his car and runs to the snow. He picks up some snow in his hand too.
+
+"Wow, Lila, it is snow!" Ben says, holding the snow. "It is so fun and soft!"
+
+They both laugh and play with the snow. They make snowballs and throw them at each other. They make snowmen and snow angels. They have fun in the snow.
+
+But then, they hear a voice. It is their mom. She is calling them from the house.
+
+"Lila, Ben, come inside!" Mom says. "It is too cold outside. You need to warm up and have some hot chocolate!"
+
+Lila and Ben look at each other. They are sad to leave the snow, but they are also cold and thirsty. They nod and run to the house.
+
+"Okay, Mom, we are coming!" Lila says.
+
+"Bye, snow, we will see you later!" Ben says.
+
+They leave their cars on the grass. They are open and have snow on them. They look like they are frozen. But they are not. They are just waiting for Lila and Ben to come back and play with them again.
+Tom and Lily were at the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and look for shells. Sometimes they saw fish and crabs in the water.
+
+One day, they saw a man with a big cart. He had many things to sell. He had hats and sunglasses and toys and books. He also had a big tank with a shark inside.
+
+"Look, a shark!" Tom said. He ran to the cart to see it. Lily followed him. She was nervous. She did not like sharks. She thought they were scary and mean.
+
+"Hello, kids. Do you want to see my shark?" the man said. He smiled and opened the tank. The shark was gray and had many teeth. It swam around and made bubbles.
+
+"Wow, it's cool!" Tom said. He wanted to touch it. He reached his hand to the tank.
+
+"Tom, no!" Lily said. She pulled him back. She was afraid the shark would bite him. "Sharks are bad. They can hurt you."
+
+The man laughed. "Don't worry, little girl. This shark is not bad. He is friendly and smart. He can do tricks. Watch this." He took a fish from a bucket and threw it in the tank. The shark jumped and caught it in his mouth. He made a noise like a bark.
+
+"See? He is happy. He likes fish. He does not like people. He would not hurt you." The man said.
+
+Tom and Lily clapped. They liked the shark's trick. They thought he was funny and cute.
+
+"Can we have him?" Tom asked. He wanted to take the shark home.
+
+The man shook his head. "No, I'm sorry. You can't have him. He is not for sale. He is my friend. I take care of him. He needs a big tank and a lot of fish. He would not be happy in a small bowl or a bathtub."
+
+Tom and Lily were sad. They wanted to play with the shark. But they understood. They knew the shark was better with the man.
+
+"OK. Thank you for showing us your shark. He is very nice." Lily said.
+
+"You're welcome. Thank you for being polite and careful. You are very nice, too." The man said.
+
+Tom and Lily waved goodbye to the man and the shark. They went back to their mom and dad. They told them about the shark and his trick. They were happy. They had a fun day at the beach.
+Lila and Ben were on a big boat with their mom and dad. They liked to look at the water and the fish and the birds. Sometimes they saw other boats and waved at them.
+
+One day, the boat stopped at a port. There were many people and things there. Mom and dad said they wanted to buy some food and souvenirs. Lila and Ben wanted to go with them, but they were very tired from the boat ride.
+
+"Why don't you rest here for a while?" mom said. "We'll be back soon. Here, have some lemonade and cookies."
+
+Lila and Ben nodded and sat on a bench. Mom and dad gave them a hug and a kiss and went away. Lila and Ben drank some lemonade and ate some cookies. The lemonade was sour, but they liked it. It made them feel fresh.
+
+"Look, Ben, a dog!" Lila said, pointing at a furry animal that was walking by. The dog was brown and white and had a long tail. It looked friendly.
+
+"Can we pet it?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe we should ask its owner first," Lila said.
+
+They looked around and saw a man with a hat and a bag. He was holding a leash that was attached to the dog.
+
+"Excuse me, sir, can we pet your dog?" Lila asked politely.
+
+The man smiled and nodded. "Sure, kids, his name is Spot. He likes to be petted. But be gentle, he's old and tired."
+
+Lila and Ben thanked the man and approached Spot. They stroked his fur and scratched his ears. Spot wagged his tail and licked their faces. Lila and Ben giggled and hugged him.
+
+"You're a good dog, Spot," Lila said.
+
+"You're a nice dog, Spot," Ben said.
+
+Spot barked and snuggled with them. Lila and Ben felt happy and cozy. They forgot they were tired and bored. They had made a new friend. They decided to rest with Spot until mom and dad came back.
+Lily and Ben were hot and thirsty. They had been playing in the park for a long time. They wanted to drink some juice from the cooler that Mom had brought. But the cooler was too heavy for them to carry.
+
+"Mom, can you please bring the cooler here?" Lily asked.
+
+Mom was sitting on a bench, reading a book. She looked up and smiled. "Sure, sweetie. Just a minute."
+
+She put down her book and got up. She walked over to the cooler and lifted it. But she felt a pain in her back. She put the cooler down and sighed.
+
+"Ow, my back hurts. I think I pulled a muscle. I'm sorry, kids. I can't carry the cooler right now. I need to rest for a while."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for Mom. They also felt weak and thirsty. They looked at the cooler and wished they could open it.
+
+"Maybe we can push it together," Ben suggested.
+
+They tried to push the cooler, but it was too hard. It barely moved. They gave up and sat down next to Mom.
+
+"Mom, are you okay?" Lily asked.
+
+Mom nodded and hugged them. "I'm okay, honey. It's just a little sore. It will get better soon. Don't worry."
+
+She reached into her bag and took out a bottle of water. She opened it and gave it to Lily and Ben.
+
+"Here, drink some water. It will help you feel better. And maybe we can share some juice later, when Dad comes to pick us up."
+
+Lily and Ben drank some water and felt a little better. They thanked Mom and cuddled with her. They hoped Dad would come soon and bring them some juice. They also hoped Mom's back would feel better soon. They loved Mom very much.
+Anna was very happy today. She was going to visit her big sister at university. Anna loved her big sister very much. She wanted to see where she lived and learned.
+
+Anna and her mom took a bus to the university. Anna looked out the window and saw many big buildings and many people. She saw a big sign that said "university". She asked her mom, "What is university?"
+
+Mom said, "University is a place where big people go to learn more things. They read books, write papers, and do experiments. They want to be doctors, teachers, engineers, and many other things."
+
+Anna said, "Wow, that sounds fun. Can I go to university too?"
+
+Mom said, "Yes, you can, if you work hard and study well. But university is also very expensive. That means it costs a lot of money to go there. We have to save money for a long time to help your sister pay for university."
+
+Anna said, "Oh, I see. That's why you always remind me to put some money in my piggy bank. You say it's for my future."
+
+Mom said, "That's right, Anna. You are a smart girl. Saving money is a good habit. Maybe one day you will go to university too, and learn many things."
+
+Anna said, "I hope so, mom. I want to be like my big sister. She is very smart and kind. I miss her a lot."
+
+Mom said, "I miss her too, Anna. But we will see her soon. Look, we are almost there. There is her dorm. Let's go and give her a big hug."
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They saw a big, black spider on a flower. Lily was scared of spiders. She ran away and hid behind a tree.
+
+"Come back, Lily! It is not scary. It is just a spider," Tom said. He wanted to show Lily the spider. He reached out his hand and tried to catch it.
+
+But the spider did not want to be caught. It jumped on Tom's hand and bit him. Tom felt a sharp pain. He screamed and dropped the spider. He ran to his mom, who was sitting on a chair.
+
+"Mom, mom, the spider bit me! It hurts!" Tom cried.
+
+"Oh, poor Tom. Let me see your hand," mom said. She took Tom's hand and looked at it. There was a small red mark where the spider bit him. "It is not bad, Tom. It will go away soon. But we need to make it feel better. Do you know what we can do?"
+
+"No, mom. What can we do?" Tom asked.
+
+"We can squeeze some lemon juice on it. Lemon juice is good for bites. It will make them less itchy and swollen. And then we can give your hand a massage. A massage is when you rub something gently. It will make your hand relax and stop hurting. Do you want to try?" mom said.
+
+"OK, mom. I want to try," Tom said. He was still a little scared, but he trusted his mom.
+
+Mom took a lemon from the kitchen and cut it in half. She squeezed some juice on a cotton ball and dabbed it on Tom's bite. Tom felt a sting, but he was brave and did not cry. He said, "Ouch, mom. That is sour."
+
+"I know, Tom. But it will help. Now, let me give you a massage. Hold out your hand," mom said. She took Tom's hand and rubbed it gently with her fingers. She moved them in circles and squeezed them softly. Tom felt a warm and nice feeling. He said, "Ahh, mom. That is good."
+
+"See, Tom? You are feeling better already. The lemon juice and the massage are working. The spider bite will heal soon. And you don't have to be afraid of spiders. They are just animals, like us. They don't want to hurt you. They just want to live in their homes. But you should not touch them, because they might bite you. You should look at them from far away, and leave them alone. OK?" mom said.
+
+"OK, mom. I understand. Thank you for helping me. I love you, mom," Tom said.
+
+"I love you too, Tom. You are a brave and smart boy. Now, do you want to go back and play with Lily? She might be lonely and scared. You can tell her what happened, and how you feel better. Maybe she will not be scared of spiders anymore. What do you think?" mom said.
+
+"I think that is a good idea, mom. I want to play with Lily. She is my friend. I will tell her about the lemon juice and the massage. And I will tell her that spiders are not scary. Come on, mom. Let's go," Tom said.
+
+He took mom's hand and ran back to the garden. He saw Lily peeking from behind the tree. He waved at her and smiled. He said, "Hi, Lily. Do you want to play with me?"

+Tom is a boy who likes to play with his toys. He has cars, trains, blocks and a big teddy bear. He likes to make loud noises when he plays, like vroom, choo-choo, bang and roar.

+
+She covers him with his blanket again and kisses him goodnight. She leaves the room and closes the door.

+
+The man called the hospital and asked for an ambulance. He also called the dog's owner and told him to come and get his dog. He went to Tom and tried to calm him down. He wrapped a cloth around his leg and told him he would be okay.
+
+Soon, the ambulance came and took Tom and Lily to the hospital. There, a nice doctor looked at Tom's leg and gave him some medicine. He said Tom was brave and would get better soon.

+
+The dog's owner came to the hospital and said he was sorry too. He said his dog was not mean, but he was afraid of loud noises. He said he would keep his dog at home and train him to be friendly.

+Lily and Max are playing in the snow. They make a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They give him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. They are very happy.
+
+But then Lily feels cold. Her fingers are red and her nose is wet. She wants to go inside and have some hot cocoa. She tells Max, "I am cold. Let's go."
+
+Max nods. He is cold too. He takes Lily's hand and they walk to the door. But the door is locked. They forgot to take the key. They knock and knock, but no one hears them. They are scared.
+
+Lily sees a zipper on the snowman's scarf. She has an idea. She says, "Maybe we can lift the zipper and go inside the scarf. It looks warm."
+
+Max thinks that is a good idea. He helps Lily lift the zipper. They open the scarf and crawl inside. It is warm and soft. They hug each other and wait for someone to come.
+
+Soon, they hear their mom's voice. She is looking for them. She sees the snowman and the open zipper. She says, "Lily? Max? Are you in there?"
+
+Lily and Max poke their heads out. They say, "Hi, mom. We are here. We are warm."

+
+"No, you are wetter!" Sam jokes back.
+
+They laugh and have fun. But then, Tom feels something on his leg. He looks down and sees a leak in his pants. He has peed his pants!
+
+"Oh no, I have a leak!" Tom says.
+
+Sam sees Tom's leak and stops laughing. He feels sorry for Tom. He knows Tom is sad and embarrassed.
+
+"Hey, it's okay, Tom. It's not a big deal. It happens to everyone sometimes." Sam says.
+
+He gives Tom a hug and a smile. He helps Tom find his mom. Tom's mom is calm and kind. She does not get angry or scold Tom. She takes him to the bathroom and gives him a clean pair of pants.
+

+Lila and Ben were on a trip with their mom and dad. They went to a place with big hills and rocks. They saw many animals, like birds, sheep and goats. They also saw a mule. A mule is like a horse, but with long ears and a loud voice.
+
+The mule was carrying a big bag on its back. The bag had food and water and clothes for the people. The mule walked up and down the hills with the bag. It was very strong and brave. But it was also very tired. It wanted to rest and eat some grass.
+
+One day, the mule saw a cave. The cave was dark and cool. The mule thought it would be a good place to sleep. It walked towards the cave with the bag. But the cave was very small.

+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers. They saw a big mushroom under a tree. It was brown and round and had spots on it.
+
+"Wow, look at that mushroom!" Tom said. "I want to lift it and see what is under it."
+
+"No, Tom, don't do that!" Lily said. "Mushroom can be bad. They can make you sick or hurt you. You have to be careful."
+
+But Tom did not listen to Lily. He ran to the mushroom and tried to lift it. He pulled and pulled, but the mushroom was stuck. He pulled harder and harder, until he heard a loud snap.
+
+The mushroom broke off from the ground, and Tom fell backwards. He landed on his back and hit his head on a rock. He started to cry.
+
+Lily ran to Tom and saw blood on his head. She was scared and sorry. She hugged Tom and said, "I'm sorry, Tom. I tried to tell you. Are you okay?"
+
+Tom was in pain and angry. He said, "Go away, Lily. You are mean. You don't want me to have fun. You are a bad sister."
+
+Lily felt sad and hurt. She said, "No, Tom, I'm not mean. I'm your sister. I love you. I want you to be safe. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+Tom and Lily looked at each other. They saw tears in their eyes. They realized they were both wrong. They said, "I'm sorry" and "I forgive you" and hugged each other.
+
+They went inside and told their mom what happened. Their mom cleaned Tom's wound and put a bandage on it. She said, "You have to be careful with mushrooms. Some of them are poisonous or have sharp edges. You have to ask me before you touch them."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and said, "Okay, mom. We will be careful next time."
+
+They learned their lesson and played nicely together. They still liked to look for bugs and flowers, but they left the mushrooms alone.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the woods. They observe many things. They see birds, bugs, and flowers. They hear sounds, like wind, water, and animals.
+
+One day, they find a hut in the woods. It is small and old. It has a door, a window, and a chimney. They wonder who lives in the hut.
+
+"Let's knock on the door," Lila says. She is curious and playful.
+
+"OK," Ben says. He is brave and playful too.
+
+They knock on the door. No one answers. They knock again. Still no one answers.
+
+"Maybe no one is home," Lila says.
+
+"Maybe we can peek inside," Ben says.
+
+They look through the window. They see a table, a chair, and a bed. They see a pot, a spoon, and a plate. They see a hat, a coat, and a boot.
+
+They also see a big, black, furry thing on the bed. It has ears, a nose, and a tail. It is sleeping and snoring.
+
+"What is that?" Lila whispers.
+
+"I don't know," Ben whispers back.
+
+They are scared and curious. They want to observe more, but they also want to run away.
+
+Suddenly, the thing on the bed opens its eyes. It sees Lila and Ben. It growls and jumps up.
+
+"Roar!" it says.
+
+Lila and Ben scream and run away. They run out of the hut and into the woods. They run as fast as they can.
+
+They never go back to the hut. They never find out who or what lives in the hut. They only observe it from far away. They tell their friends about the hut and the thing. They make up stories and play games. They are still curious and playful.
+Lily was playing with her dolls in the living room. She liked to make them talk and dress them up. She heard a loud noise from upstairs. It sounded like a big bang. She wondered what it was.
+
+She left her dolls and went to the stairs. She saw her brother Tom coming down. He had a big smile on his face. He was holding something in his hands. It was dirty and brown. Lily did not recognize it.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"It's a treasure!" Tom said. "I found it in the attic. It's very old and cool. Do you want to see?"
+
+Lily was curious. She nodded. Tom took her upstairs. He showed her the attic. It was dark and dusty. There were many boxes and things. Tom opened one of them. He took out more dirty and brown things. They looked like pots and pans and coins and books.
+
+"These are treasures too!" Tom said. "They belonged to grandma and grandpa. They are very valuable and interesting. Do you like them?"
+
+Lily looked at them. She did not like them. She thought they were boring and ugly. She wanted to play with her dolls. She did not recognize why Tom liked them.
+
+"No, I don't like them," Lily said. "They are dirty and old. I want to go back to the living room. I want to play with my dolls. They are pretty and fun."
+
+Tom was disappointed. He liked the treasures. He wanted to share them with Lily. He did not recognize why Lily did not like them.
+
+"OK, fine," Tom said. "You can go back to the living room. I will stay here and play with the treasures. They are better than dolls."
+
+Lily and Tom went their separate ways. They did not play together. They did not recognize each other's feelings. They were both sad.
+Lily liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She wanted to learn how to cook and bake. One day, her mom asked her to fill a jar with sugar from the cabinet. Lily was happy to do it. She climbed on a stool and opened the cabinet door.
+
+But Lily did not see the sugar. She saw many other jars and boxes with different colors and shapes. She wondered what they were. She picked one that had red flakes and a picture of a pepper. She opened it and smelled it. It was very spicy. It made her nose tickle and her eyes water. She sneezed.
+
+Her mom heard her and came to see what was wrong. She saw Lily holding the jar of chili flakes and the empty sugar jar. She understood what happened. She hugged Lily and said, "That's not sugar, sweetie. That's chili. It's very spicy and hot. It's not for filling jars. It's for making food taste different."
+
+Lily felt sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to help you. I did not know it was spicy. Where is the sugar?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "It's okay, Lily. You were trying to help. That's very nice of you. The sugar is in the white jar with the blue lid. It's next to the flour. Do you see it?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I see it. Can I fill the jar with sugar now?"
+
+Her mom said, "Yes, you can. But be careful. Don't spill it. And don't touch the spicy jars. They are not for you."
+
+Lily said, "Okay, mom. I will be careful. And I will not touch the spicy jars. They are too spicy for me."
+
+She filled the jar with sugar and gave it to her mom. Her mom thanked her and said, "You are a good helper, Lily. I love you."
+
+Lily said, "I love you too, mom. And I love sugar. But I don't love spicy."
+Tommy loved his soft monkey toy. He always took it with him when he went to bed, to school, or to the park. He liked to hug it, talk to it, and pretend it was his friend. He named it Mimi.
+
+One day, Tommy's mom said they were going to the zoo. Tommy was very excited. He wanted to see the real monkeys and show them his toy. He put Mimi in his backpack and got ready to go.
+
+At the zoo, Tommy saw many animals. He saw lions, elephants, giraffes, and penguins. He liked them all, but he was looking for the monkeys. He asked his mom, "Where are the monkeys, mom?"
+
+"Over there, Tommy. See the big sign that says 'Monkey House'?" his mom pointed.
+
+Tommy ran to the sign and entered the monkey house. He saw many monkeys of different sizes, colors, and shapes. They were swinging, jumping, climbing, and making noises. Tommy was amazed. He took out Mimi from his backpack and held it up. "Look, Mimi, these are your cousins!" he said.
+
+One of the monkeys saw Tommy and his toy. It was curious and wanted to play with it. It jumped from a branch and grabbed Mimi from Tommy's hand. Tommy was shocked and scared. He cried, "No, no, give it back! That's my monkey!"
+
+The monkey ran away with Mimi, followed by other monkeys. Tommy chased them, but he could not catch them. He yelled, "Mom, mom, help me! The monkeys took my monkey!"
+
+His mom heard him and ran to him. She saw the monkeys with Mimi. She tried to calm Tommy and said, "Don't worry, Tommy, we'll get your monkey back. Let's ask the zookeeper for help."
+
+She found the zookeeper and told him what happened. The zookeeper was sorry and said, "I'm sorry, ma'am, this happens sometimes. The monkeys are very playful and like to take things. But they usually get bored and drop them. I'll try to get your toy back, but it might take some time."
+
+He went inside the monkey house and tried to lure the monkeys with some bananas. He hoped they would trade Mimi for the bananas. But the monkeys were not interested. They liked Mimi too much. They hugged it, talked to it, and pretended it was their friend. They named it Lili.
+Lily was a bright girl who loved to learn new things. She liked to read books, play games, and ask questions. She wanted to join a big school where she could learn more things. She heard her mom and dad talk about a big school called university.
+
+One day, Lily asked her mom, "Can I join university, too?" Her mom smiled and said, "Not yet, Lily. You are still very young. You have to go to other schools first, and then you can join university when you are older."
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted to join university now. She thought it would be fun and exciting. She wondered what they did at university. She asked her dad, "What do you do at university, dad?" Her dad said, "I teach people about math and science. I help them solve problems and discover new things. I like my job at university."
+
+Lily was curious. She liked math and science, too. She wanted to solve problems and discover new things. She said, "Can I visit your university, dad? Can I see what you do?" Her dad said, "Sure, Lily. You can come with me tomorrow. I will show you around and introduce you to some of my students. You can see what we do at university."
+
+Lily was happy. She could not wait to visit her dad's university. She thought it would be like a big adventure. She hoped she would learn something new and make some friends. She dreamed of joining university one day. She knew she had to work hard and be patient. She said, "Thank you, dad. I love you." Her dad said, "I love you, too, Lily. You are my bright girl."
+Tim and Kim liked to play with blocks. They made towers, bridges, castles and more. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes. They had fun together.
+
+One day, they had a big fight. Tim wanted to use all the blue blocks, but Kim wanted some too. They yelled and pushed each other. They were very angry. They did not want to share.
+
+They each took some blocks and went to opposite sides of the room. They started to build their own towers. They wanted to make the tallest and best towers ever. They did not look at each other or talk.
+
+Tim and Kim worked hard on their towers. They stacked and balanced the blocks as high as they could. They were very proud of their towers. They thought their towers were incredible.
+
+But then, a loud noise made them jump. It was a thunderstorm outside. The wind blew and the rain poured. The windows rattled and the lights flickered. Tim and Kim were scared. They looked at their towers. They saw that the wind and the rain made their towers shake and wobble. They were afraid that their towers would fall.
+
+They looked at each other. They felt sorry for their fight. They realized that they were silly and selfish. They wanted to be friends again. They ran to each other and hugged. They said they were sorry and that they loved each other.
+
+They decided to work together and make a new tower. They used all the blocks, blue, red, yellow, green and more. They made a strong and beautiful tower. They smiled and laughed. They were happy.
+
+The thunderstorm stopped. The sun came out. They looked at their tower. They saw that it was still standing. It was the most incredible tower they ever made. They learned that sharing and caring are better than fighting and hating. They thanked each other and gave each other a high five. They played with their tower and had fun together.
+Mila and Tobi were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They also gave him a spear to hold. They thought he looked very brave and strong.
+
+They ran around the snowman and threw snowballs at each other. They had a lot of fun and laughed a lot. They did not see the sun go down and the sky get dark.
+
+Soon, it was very cold and icy. Mila and Tobi felt their fingers and toes get numb. They wanted to go home and have some hot soup. They said goodbye to the snowman and ran to their house.
+
+But they forgot something. They forgot the spear. They left it in the snowman's hand. The snowman was still standing in the snow, holding the spear. He looked very lonely and sad. He wished Mila and Tobi would come back and play with him again.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they get a package from Grandma. It is big and heavy. They are very happy.
+
+They open the package and see many great things. There are dolls, cars, puzzles, and stickers. They say thank you to Grandma and start to play. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But then, Anna can't find her doll. She looks everywhere. She asks Ben, "Where is my doll?" Ben says, "I don't know. Maybe you lost it." Anna is sad. She likes her doll very much.
+
+They look for the doll together. They check under the sofa, behind the curtains, in the closet, and in the trash. They can't find the doll. Anna cries. Ben says, "Don't cry. We will find your doll. Maybe it is in the package."
+
+They go back to the package and look inside. They see a lot of paper and bubble wrap. They move them away and see something pink. It is Anna's doll. She is hiding in the package. Anna is happy. She hugs her doll and says, "I found you. I love you." Ben is happy too. He says, "You didn't lose your doll. She was just playing hide and seek." They laugh and play some more. They are very happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were animals. Lily was a rabbit and Ben was a fox. They ran and hopped and chased each other.
+
+But then they saw a big fence. It was too high for them to jump over. They wanted to see what was on the other side. Maybe there were more animals to play with. Maybe there were flowers and trees and fruits.
+
+"Let's find a way to escape," Lily said.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Ben said. "Maybe there are dangers on the other side."
+
+They looked around and saw a hole under the fence. It was small, but big enough for them to crawl through. They decided to go for it.
+
+They squeezed through the hole and found themselves in a new place. It was a farm. There were cows and pigs and chickens and ducks. There were also apples and carrots and corn and pumpkins. It looked delicious.
+
+"Wow, look at all the food!" Lily said. "Can we eat some?"
+
+"Sure, why not?" Ben said. "But don't take too much. We don't want to get caught."
+
+They ran to the nearest apple tree and picked some apples. They bit into them and smiled. They were sweet and juicy.
+
+But then they heard a loud voice. It was the farmer. He was angry. He saw them stealing his apples. He grabbed a stick and ran towards them.
+
+"Hey, you little thieves! Get away from my apples!" he shouted.
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They dropped their apples and ran back to the hole. But the farmer was faster. He reached them before they could escape. He lifted his stick and swung it at them.
+
+Lily and Ben ducked and dodged. They managed to avoid the stick. They crawled through the hole and ran back to their garden. They were safe.
+
+They looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. They were glad they escaped. But they also felt sorry. They knew they did something wrong. They took the farmer's apples without asking. They made him angry and sad.
+
+They decided to say sorry to the farmer. They picked some flowers from their garden and wrote a note. They said they were sorry for taking his apples and that they would not do it again. They also said they liked his farm and his animals.
+
+They went back to the hole and left the flowers and the note on the other side. They hoped the farmer would see them and forgive them.
+
+They went back to their garden and hugged each other. They learned a lesson. They learned that stealing is bad and that saying sorry is good. They also learned that playing in their garden was more fun than escaping to the farm. They smiled and continued to play. They were happy.
+One day, a little boy named Tom went to the park with his mom. He saw a big log near the pond. He wanted to have the log for himself. He ran to the log and said, "This is my log. No one can play with it."
+
+A little girl named Lily was also at the park. She liked the log too. She asked Tom, "Can I play with the log with you? It looks fun."
+
+Tom said, "No, you can't. This is my log. Go away."
+
+Lily felt sad. She said, "That's not nice. You should share with others. Sharing is good."
+
+Tom said, "I don't care. I don't want to share. This is my log."
+
+Lily walked away. She saw a yellow duck near the pond. She smiled and said, "Hello, duck. You are so yellow and pretty. Can I play with you?"
+
+The duck said, "Quack, quack. Yes, you can. You are so kind and friendly. Come and play with me."
+
+Lily and the duck had fun together. They splashed in the water and chased each other. They laughed and quacked.
+
+Tom saw Lily and the duck. He felt lonely. He said, "I wish I had a friend to play with. But I only have this log. And this log is not fun. It is just a log."
+
+He looked at the log. He saw that it was old and dirty. He said, "Maybe this log is not so great. Maybe I should have shared it with Lily. Maybe then she would have been my friend."
+
+He ran to Lily and the duck. He said, "Lily, I'm sorry. I was wrong. Can I play with you and the duck? Can I share the log with you?"
+
+Lily said, "Of course, Tom. You can play with us. You can share the log with us. Sharing is good. And friends are better than logs."
+
+Tom said, "Thank you, Lily. You are very nice. And you are right. Friends are better than logs."
+
+They all played together. They used the log as a bridge, a boat, and a slide. They had fun. They were happy.
+
+The moral of the story is: Sharing is good. And friends are better than logs.
+Tom was very excite to go to the pool with his mom and dad. He had a new suit that was blue and had sharks on it. He put it on and ran to the car. He could not wait to swim and splash.
+
+When they got to the pool, Tom saw that there were many other kids there. Some of them had suits like his, and some of them had suits that were different. He saw a girl with a suit that was pink and had flowers on it. He thought it was pretty.
+
+Tom wanted to make a new friend, so he went to the girl and said hello. The girl smiled and said hello back. She told him her name was Lily. Tom told her his name was Tom. They decided to play together in the water.
+
+They had a lot of fun. They swam and splashed and chased each other. They also played with some toys that were in the pool. They found a ball that was red and a ring that was yellow. They threw the ball and caught it. They put the ring around their heads and pretended to be turtles.
+
+Tom and Lily were happy. They liked each other and their suits. They did not care that the water was cold and the wind was thick. They only cared that they were having fun. They were glad that they met at the pool.
+Anna liked to play in the park with her friends. They ran, jumped, slid and swung on the swings. Anna's favorite place was under the big oak tree. It had many leaves and acorns, and it gave shade and cool air.
+
+One day, Anna saw a squirrel on the oak tree. It was brown and fluffy, and it had a long tail. Anna wanted to say hello to the squirrel, so she walked closer to the tree. The squirrel saw Anna and ran up the trunk. Anna followed it with her eyes, but she could not see it well.
+
+Anna thought the squirrel was hiding in a hole in the tree. She wanted to peek inside, so she climbed on a low branch. She reached for the hole, but it was too high. She stretched her arm, but she lost her balance. She fell off the branch and landed on the grass.
+
+Anna felt a pain in her arm and started to cry. Her friends heard her and ran to help her. They saw that her arm was red and swollen. They told her to stay still and went to find a grown-up. They found a modest lady who was sitting on a bench. She had a kind face and a big bag.
+
+The lady came to Anna and looked at her arm. She said it was not broken, but it was sprained. She took out a bandage and a cold pack from her bag. She wrapped the bandage around Anna's arm and put the cold pack on it. She said it would help with the pain and the swelling. She also gave Anna a candy and a hug.
+
+Anna felt better and thanked the lady. The lady said she was a nurse and she liked to help people. She said Anna was brave and strong. She told Anna to be careful when climbing trees, and to always have a friend with her. She said she had to go, but she would come back to the park another day.
+
+Anna said goodbye to the lady and smiled. She still felt a little pain, but she also felt happy. She had made a new friend, and she had learned something new. She decided to end her playtime and go home with her friends. She wanted to tell her mom and dad about her adventure. She also wanted to see the squirrel again, but from the ground.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play with their ball. They would pass the ball to each other and try to catch it. Sometimes they would pass the ball to their dog, Max, who would run after it and bring it back.
+
+One day, they saw a new person in the park. He was sitting on a bench and reading a book. He looked ordinary, like any other person. Sara and Ben were curious about him. They decided to pass the ball to him and see what he would do.
+
+They threw the ball to the person, but he did not catch it. He did not even look up from his book. The ball bounced off his leg and rolled away. Sara and Ben ran after the ball and picked it up. They felt sad and confused. Why did the person not want to play with them?
+
+They tried again. They threw the ball to the person, but he did not catch it. He did not even look up from his book. The ball bounced off his arm and rolled away. Sara and Ben ran after the ball and picked it up. They felt angry and annoyed. Why was the person so rude to them?
+
+They tried one more time. They threw the ball to the person, but he did not catch it. He did not even look up from his book. The ball bounced off his head and rolled away. Sara and Ben ran after the ball and picked it up. They felt happy and amused. They laughed at the person and made fun of him.
+
+The person finally looked up from his book. He had a sad and hurt expression on his face. He said to Sara and Ben, "Why are you being so mean to me? I did not do anything to you. I just wanted to read my book in peace. I have a hard time making friends. I am lonely and shy. Please do not laugh at me. Please be kind to me."
+
+Sara and Ben felt ashamed and sorry. They realized that they had been wrong to judge the person by his looks. They did not know his story or his feelings. They had been unkind and disrespectful. They apologized to the person and asked him his name. He said his name was Tom. They asked him if he wanted to play with them and their ball. He said yes. They passed the ball to him and he caught it. He smiled and thanked them. They smiled and welcomed him. They became friends and played together.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not judge a person by his or her appearance. Do not be mean or rude to someone you do not know. Be kind and respectful to everyone. You might make a new friend.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to study. She liked to learn new things and read books. She wanted to be a teacher when she grew up. She studied hard every day and did her homework.
+
+One day, her mom took her to the circus. Lily was very excited. She had never seen a circus before. She saw many animals, acrobats, and clowns. She liked the clowns the most. They made her laugh with their funny faces and tricks.
+
+One of the clowns saw Lily and came to her. He gave her a balloon and a flower. He asked her what she wanted to be when she grew up. Lily said she wanted to be a teacher. The clown smiled and said that was a good choice. He said he was also a teacher. Lily was surprised. She asked him how he could be a teacher and a clown.
+
+The clown said he loved both jobs. He said he taught math and science at a school in the morning, and he performed at the circus in the afternoon. He said he studied hard when he was a little boy, and he learned how to be a clown from his dad, who was also a clown. He said he enjoyed making people happy and sharing his knowledge.
+
+Lily was amazed. She said he was very smart and talented. The clown thanked her and said she was very kind and curious. He said he hoped she would keep studying and follow her dreams. He said he had to go back to the stage, but he gave her a hug and a wink. He said he would see her again someday.
+
+Lily waved goodbye to the clown. She felt happy and inspired. She decided she would keep studying and maybe learn how to be a clown too. She thought that would be fun and rewarding. She learned that day that you can be anything you want if you work hard and have passion. She also learned that clowns are not just funny, but also wise and friendly. She thanked her mom for taking her to the circus. She said it was the best day ever.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with their toys in the park. One day, they saw a big crane. The crane was lifting heavy things and making loud noises.
+
+Lily wanted to go closer and see the crane. She said, "Let's go, Ben. The crane is so cool. Maybe we can touch it."
+
+But Ben was scared of the crane. He said, "No, Lily. The crane is too big and too loud. It might hurt us. Let's stay here and play with our toys."
+
+Lily and Ben started to quarrel. Lily said, "You are a baby, Ben. You are afraid of everything. I don't want to play with you anymore." Ben said, "You are silly, Lily. You don't listen to me. I don't want to play with you anymore."
+
+They turned away from each other and played with their own toys. They did not talk or look at each other. They felt sad and lonely.
+
+Then, they heard a soft voice. It was a duck. The duck was swimming in the pond near the park. The duck said, "Hello, Lily and Ben. Why are you quarreling? You are best friends. You should be nice to each other."
+
+Lily and Ben looked at the duck. They felt ashamed. They said, "We are sorry, duck. We were quarreling about the crane. Lily wanted to go closer and Ben wanted to stay away."
+
+The duck said, "I see. The crane is very interesting, but also very dangerous. You should not go too close to it. But you should also respect each other's feelings. Lily, you should not call Ben a baby. Ben, you should not call Lily silly. You should listen to each other and compromise. Maybe you can find another way to enjoy the crane. Like drawing it or making a story about it."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They said, "Thank you, duck. You are very wise and kind. You are right. We should be nice to each other. We are best friends. We love each other."
+
+They hugged and made up. They decided to draw the crane and make a story about it. They had fun and laughed together. The duck smiled and swam away. Lily and Ben were happy again.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play on the farm. They see many animals and plants. They have fun.
+
+One day, they find a big pile of hay. They want to make a fort. They take some hay and put it on the ground. They make walls and a roof. They make a door and a window. They have a hay fort.
+
+They go inside the fort. They pretend they are kings and queens. They talk to each other.
+
+"Hello, King Ben," Sara says. "You have a fancy crown."
+
+"Thank you, Queen Sara," Ben says. "You have a fancy dress."
+
+They laugh and smile. They are happy.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is the farmer. He comes with a big machine. He wants to move the hay. He does not see the fort.
+
+"Hey, kids, get out of there!" he shouts. "I need to take the hay to the barn."
+
+Sara and Ben are scared. They run out of the fort. They see the machine. It is big and noisy. It has a fork. It lifts the hay.
+
+"Sorry, kids, I didn't know you were there," the farmer says. "You can't play with the hay. It is for the cows and horses."
+
+Sara and Ben are sad. They like the hay fort. They worked hard to make it. But they know the farmer is right. The hay is not for them.
+
+They say goodbye to the farmer. They say goodbye to the hay fort. They go to find another place to play.
+
+The end.
+Anna likes to play with her cube. It has six sides and different colors. She can make pictures with the colors. She can also solve the cube. That means she can make all the sides the same color.
+
+One day, Anna was playing with her cube on the floor. She was trying to solve it. She was very happy. She almost solved it. She only had one side left. But then, her brother came.

+Sara liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She wore a pink apron with flowers on it. She helped mom stir the soup, cut the bread, and set the table. She felt happy and proud.
+
+But one day, mom had a different apron. It was blue and had stars on it. Sara did not like it. She wanted mom to wear the pink apron. She said, "Mom, why do you have a different apron? I don't like it. Please wear the pink one."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Sara, this is a new apron. I got it as a gift from your aunt. It is very nice and soft. I like it. And you know what? You can have the pink apron. It is yours now. You can wear it whenever you want."

+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they found a big pile of pebbles near the lake. They decided to have a contest to see who could hold the most pebbles in their hands.
+
+Ben grabbed as many pebbles as he could and squeezed them hard. He wanted to win and show Lily that he was stronger. Lily picked up a few pebbles and held them gently. She liked how they felt and looked. She did not care about winning.
+
+Soon, Ben's hands were full of pebbles, but he was not happy. His hands hurt and some pebbles fell out. He saw that Lily had only a few pebbles, but she was smiling. He felt angry and jealous. He said, "Lily, you are silly. You only have a few pebbles. I have more. I win. You lose."
+
+Lily looked at Ben and said, "Ben, you are mean. You have many pebbles, but you are not happy. I have a few pebbles, but I am happy. I do not want to win. I want to share."
+
+She opened her hand and showed Ben an enormous pebble that she had found. It was shiny and smooth and had many colors. She said, "Look, Ben. This is a special pebble. It is beautiful and rare. I want to give it to you. You can have it."
+
+Ben was surprised and ashamed. He saw that Lily was kind and generous. He realized that he had been greedy and rude. He said, "Lily, I am sorry. You are right. You are happy and I am not. You are a good sister. I do not deserve this pebble. You should keep it."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "No, Ben. I want you to have it. It is a gift. Maybe it will make you happy too. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will not hold pebbles too hard. You have to hold them gently and enjoy them. And you have to share them with others. That is the best way to hold pebbles."
+
+Ben nodded and said, "I promise, Lily. Thank you for the pebble. And thank you for teaching me a lesson. I love you, Lily."
+
+Lily hugged Ben and said, "I love you too, Ben."
+
+They put the pebbles back in the pile and walked back to their home, holding hands and the enormous pebble. They learned that holding pebbles is not a contest, but a joy. And they learned that holding pebbles is not as important as holding each other.
+Lily and Max were playing outside with their toys. They liked to make mud pies and splash in the puddles. They were having fun, but they did not see the dark clouds in the sky.
+
+Soon, it started to rain. The rain was cold and wet. It made Lily and Max shiver and their clothes dirty. They ran to the house to get inside. They did not want to catch a cold.
+
+Mommy was waiting for them at the door. She smiled and said, "You two are soaked! Let's go to the bathroom and get you dry and warm." She took them to the bathroom and helped them take off their wet clothes. She gave them towels and fluffy robes. She said, "Be careful not to slip on the floor. It is wet too."
+
+Lily and Max felt better after they dried off. They put on their pajamas and slippers. They thanked Mommy for taking care of them. Mommy said, "You're welcome, my loves. Now, how about some hot chocolate and cookies?" Lily and Max nodded and followed Mommy to the kitchen. They were happy and cozy. They did not mind the rain anymore.
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play together. But they did not like the same food. Lily loved spicy food, like hot sauce and curry. Max hated spicy food, like peppers and mustard. He liked sweet food, like cake and ice cream.
+
+One day, their mom made them lunch. She wrapped some spicy chicken and cheese in a tortilla for Lily, and some ham and jam in a bread for Max. She put them in their lunch boxes and said, "Have a nice day at school, my loves!"
+
+At school, Lily and Max sat with their friends to eat. Lily opened her lunch box and smiled. She loved her spicy wrap. She took a big bite and said, "Mmm, this is yummy!" Max opened his lunch box and frowned. He hated his sweet wrap. He took a small bite and said, "Yuck, this is gross!"
+
+Lily saw Max's face and said, "What's wrong, Max? Don't you like your wrap?" Max said, "No, I don't. It's too sweet. I want your wrap. Can we trade?" Lily said, "No, we can't. I like my wrap. It's spicy and good. You can have mine tomorrow." Max said, "But I don't like spicy food. I hate it. It makes my mouth hurt. You can have mine tomorrow." Lily said, "No, thank you. I don't like sweet food. I hate it. It makes my teeth ache. We can't trade."
+
+Lily and Max looked at each other and sighed. They wished they liked the same food. But they still loved each other. They gave each other a hug and said, "Maybe we can find something we both like next time." Then they ate their wraps and played with their friends. They had a nice day at school, after all.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys. Sara likes to play with dolls. Ben likes to play with cars. They have different styles of play.
+

Sara wants to dress up her dolls and make them talk. Ben wants to race his cars and make them crash. They have different styles of play.
+
+Sara and Ben start to argue. Sara says Ben is too loud and messy. Ben says Sara is too quiet and boring. They do not want to play together anymore. They take their toys and go to their own rooms. They are sad and lonely. They have different styles of play.
+
+Then, Sara and Ben have an idea. Sara thinks of a way to play with dolls and cars together. Ben thinks of a way to play with cars and dolls together. They go to each other's rooms and show their ideas. Sara makes a car park for her dolls. Ben makes a doll house for his cars. They are surprised and curious. They have different styles of play.
+
+Sara and Ben start to play together again. They have fun with their toys. They learn from each other. They are organized and creative. They are happy and friendly. They have different styles of play, but they can still play together.
+Sara and Tom were playing in the car. They liked to pretend they were driving to different places. Sara was the driver and Tom was the passenger. They put on their seat belts and buckled them. Sara said, "Ready, Tom? We are going to the zoo!"
+
+Tom nodded and smiled. He loved animals. He wanted to see the lions and the monkeys and the elephants. He said, "Yes, Sara, I am ready. Let's go to the zoo!"
+
+Sara turned the key and made a vroom sound. She moved the steering wheel and said, "Look, Tom, there is a big truck. We have to be careful and not hit it." She honked the horn and said, "Beep beep, move away, truck!"
+
+Tom looked out the window and saw the truck. He also saw something else. He saw a red light. He said, "Sara, Sara, stop! There is a red light. We have to stop!"
+
+Sara did not hear Tom. She was too busy making noises and pretending to drive. She ignored Tom and said, "We are almost at the zoo, Tom. I can see the sign. It says Z-O-O. Zoo!"
+
+Tom was worried. He knew that red lights meant stop. He knew that if they did not stop, they could crash and get hurt. He said, "Sara, Sara, please stop! There is a red light. Please listen to me!"
+
+Sara still did not hear Tom. She was too excited to see the animals. She ignored Tom and said, "Look, Tom, there is the gate. We are at the zoo! Hooray!"
+
+Tom was scared. He saw the gate coming closer and closer. He saw that it was closed and locked. He said, "Sara, Sara, stop! Stop! Stop!"
+
+Sara finally heard Tom. She looked at the gate and saw that it was closed and locked. She realized that they could not go to the zoo. She realized that they had to stop. She said, "Oh no, Tom, you are right. There is a red light. There is a gate. We have to stop!"
+
+She tried to stop the car, but it was too late. The car hit the gate with a loud bang. The seat belts and buckles saved them from getting hurt, but the car was broken. Sara and Tom were shocked and sad. They said, "Oh no, oh no, what have we done?"
+
+They heard a voice outside the car. It was their mom. She had seen the whole thing. She was angry and worried. She said, "Sara and Tom, what have you done? You have broken the car. You have disobeyed the rules. You have ignored the red light. You have ignored each other. You are in big trouble!"
+
+Sara and Tom felt sorry and ashamed. They knew they had done something bad. They knew they had to say sorry. They said, "Mom, we are sorry. We were playing and we did not pay attention. We did not mean to break the car. We did not mean to ignore the red light. We did not mean to ignore each other. We are sorry, mom, we are sorry."
+
+Mom was still angry and worried, but she was also glad that they were not hurt. She said, "Sara and Tom, I am glad that you are not hurt. But you have to learn from this. You have to follow the rules. You have to pay attention. You have to listen to each other. You have to be careful and responsible. Do you understand?"
+
+Sara and Tom nodded and said, "Yes, mom, we understand. We will follow the rules. We will pay attention. We will listen to each other. We will be careful and responsible. We promise, mom, we promise."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I love you, Sara and Tom. But you are still in big trouble. You have to help me fix the car. You have to pay for the damage. You have to apologize to the zoo. And you have to wait until next week to go to the zoo. Do you understand?"
+
+Sara and Tom nodded and said, "Yes, mom, we understand. We will help you fix the car. We will pay for the damage. We will apologize to the zoo. And we will wait until next week to go to the zoo. We understand, mom, we understand."
+
+They got out of the car and followed mom. They felt sorry and ashamed, but they also felt loved and learned. They said, "Mom, thank you for loving us. Thank you for teaching us. We love you, mom, we love you."
+Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play with their toys. But they do not like to share. One day, they find a big bowl in the kitchen. It is dull and brown, but they think it is fun.
+
+Sam says, "This is my bowl. I can put my cars in it and make them go zoom." He grabs the bowl and fills it with his cars.
+
+Ben says, "No, this is my bowl. I can put my blocks in it and build a tower." He tries to take the bowl from Sam.
+
+They pull and tug on the bowl. They yell and cry. They do not listen to each other. They do not see that the bowl is cracking.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to the kitchen. She sees the broken bowl and the mess. She is angry and sad. She says, "This is not your bowl. This is my bowl. It belongs to me. It was a gift from Grandma. She made it with her hands. It was very special. Now it is ruined."
+
+Sam and Ben feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We did not know. We were selfish and mean. We will help you clean up. We will share our toys. We will be nice to each other."
+
+Mom hugs them and says, "Thank you, boys. I love you. I forgive you. But please, be careful with things that do not belong to you. They may have a story that you do not know."
+Anna likes to read books. She has many books with pictures and words. She can read some words by herself, but not all. She asks her mom to read with her every day.
+
+One day, Anna finds a new book in her room. It is a book about sewing. Anna likes sewing. She has a needle and some thread. She wants to learn how to make clothes and toys. She opens the book and sees many pictures of sewing.
+
+She tries to read the words, but they are hard. She does not know what they mean. She feels sad and frustrated. She wants to sew like the book, but she does not understand.
+
+She goes to her mom and shows her the book. She says, "Mom, can you read this book with me? I want to learn how to sew, but the words are hard."
+
+Her mom smiles and hugs her. She says, "Of course, Anna. I am proud of you for wanting to learn new things. But you have to be patient. Sewing is not easy. It takes time and practice. And reading is not easy either. It takes time and practice too. But we can do it together. Come, let's sit on the couch and read the book. I will help you with the words and show you how to sew."
+
+Anna feels happy and excited. She follows her mom to the couch and sits on her lap. She holds the book and the needle. She listens to her mom and looks at the pictures. She learns new words and new skills. She is patient and tries her best. She enjoys reading and sewing with her mom.
+Tom and Jen were friends who liked to play on the farm. They liked to run in the fields, pet the animals, and pick the corn. They always admired the big red tractor that Farmer Joe used to plow the land. They wished they could ride on it and feel the wind in their hair.
+
+One day, when Farmer Joe was busy in the barn, Tom and Jen saw the tractor parked near the corn. They thought it would be fun to climb on it and pretend they were driving. They did not know that the tractor was still on and that the key was in the ignition. They did not see the sign that said "Danger! Do not touch!"
+
+Tom sat in the driver's seat and Jen sat next to him. They made noises with their mouths and moved the steering wheel. They felt very happy and brave. They did not notice that the tractor was slowly moving forward, toward the corn.
+
+The corn was tall and tough. It did not bend or break when the tractor hit it. It made loud noises and scratched the tractor. Tom and Jen got scared and tried to stop the tractor, but they did not know how. They screamed for help, but no one heard them.
+
+The tractor kept going until it reached the end of the field, where there was a big ditch. The tractor fell into the ditch and flipped over. Tom and Jen were trapped under the heavy metal. They were hurt and bleeding. They cried and wished they had never touched the tractor. They learned a hard lesson that day.
+Lila and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park, read books, and make art. One day, they saw a big poster that said: "Come and see the stars at the museum! Learn about the night sky and the planets!"
+
+"Wow, that looks fun!" said Lila. "Can we go, please?"
+
+"I don't know," said Ben. "I'm scared of the dark. What if the museum is too dark and we can't see anything?"
+
+"Don't be scared, Ben," said Lila. "The museum is not too dark. They have lights and windows and signs. And the stars are not scary. They are beautiful and bright and friendly. They help us find our way at night. I recommend we go and see them. Maybe we can learn something new and have fun."
+
+Lila and Ben asked their moms if they could go to the museum. Their moms said yes, and they took them to the museum the next day. Lila and Ben were very excited. They saw many things at the museum: pictures, models, maps, and videos. They learned about the sun, the moon, the earth, and the other planets. They also learned about the stars: their names, their shapes, their colors, and their stories.
+
+At the end of the visit, they went to a special room where they could see the stars on the ceiling. It was like being outside at night, but warmer and safer. Lila and Ben looked up and saw the stars twinkling and shining. They felt happy and amazed.
+
+"Wow, Lila, you were right," said Ben. "The stars are not scary. They are beautiful and bright and friendly. They help us find our way at night. I'm glad we came to see them. Thank you for recommending we go. You are a good friend."
+
+"You're welcome, Ben," said Lila. "You are a good friend too. And you are brave. You faced your fear and tried something new. I'm proud of you."
+
+Lila and Ben hugged and smiled. They learned a lot at the museum. They learned about the night sky and the planets. They also learned about friendship and courage. They had a deep feeling in their hearts that they would always remember this day.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play with toys. One day, they found a big box of old toys in the attic. They saw a doll, a car, a ball, and a phone. Lily wanted the phone, because it could ring. She liked the sound of the ring.
+
+"Can I have the phone, Tom?" she asked.
+
+"No, I want the phone," Tom said. "It is mine."
+
+"But you have the car and the ball," Lily said. "You are selfish. You have to share."
+
+"I don't want to share," Tom said. "Go away."
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She ran to their mom and told her what Tom did. Mom came to the attic and saw Tom playing with the phone.
+
+"Tom, why are you so selfish?" Mom asked. "You have to share with your sister. She wants to play with the phone too."
+
+"I don't care," Tom said. "The phone is mine."

+
+"Here, Lily, you can have the phone," Mom said. "You can ring it as much as you want."
+
+"Thank you, Mom," Lily said. She smiled and hugged Mom.
+

+
+"Hello, mister," Tom says. "Why are you sad?"
+
+The old man looks at Tom and Sue. He smiles a little. "I am sad because I have no one to talk to. I am very old and lonely. I only have this soup to keep me warm."
+
+Tom and Sue feel sorry for the old man. They want to make him happy. They sit next to him on the bench.
+

+
+"Let's make mud pies!" Ben said.
+
+"OK!" Lily said.
+
+They ran to the mud and started to scoop it with their hands. They made round balls of mud and put them on a flat rock. They pretended they were chefs.
+
+"These are the best mud pies ever!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, they are!" Ben said.
+
+They were having fun. But then, a big boy came. He was careless. He did not see the mud pies. He stepped on them with his shoes. He crushed them.

+"Hey!" Ben shouted. "You ruined our mud pies!"
+
+The big boy looked at Ben and Lily. He laughed. He did not say sorry. He did not care.
+
+"That's not nice!" Lily said. "You should say sorry!"

+The big boy laughed more. He kicked the rock. The mud splashed on Ben and Lily. They got dirty.
+
+"Stop it!" Ben said. He was angry. He threw a ball of mud at the big boy.
+
+The big boy dodged. The mud missed him. It hit a lady who was walking by. She was wearing a white dress. The mud stained her dress.
+
+"Ouch!" the lady said. She was shocked. She looked at Ben and Lily. She was mad.
+
+"Who did this?" she asked. "Who threw this mud at me?"
+
+Ben and Lily were scared. They did not mean to hit the lady. They wanted to hug each other. They wanted to say sorry. But they could not. The lady grabbed them by their arms. She dragged them to their parents. She told them what happened.
+
+Ben and Lily's parents were not happy. They scolded them. They made them apologize to the lady. They made them clean the mud. They made them go home.

+Sara and Ben were going to the park with Mom. They put on their coats and boots because it was raining. Mom gave them each an umbrella to hold. Sara had a pink one with flowers. Ben had a blue one with cars.
+
+They walked on the sidewalk and splashed in the puddles. Sara and Ben liked the rain. It made everything shiny and wet. But the wind was strong. It blew their umbrellas around. Sara and Ben had to struggle to keep them open. Sometimes the umbrellas turned inside out. Sometimes they flew away. Sara and Ben had to run after them.
+
+When they got to the park, they saw a friendly dog. It was brown and fluffy. It wagged its tail and barked. Sara and Ben wanted to pet it. But the dog did not like the umbrellas. It thought they were scary. It growled and ran away. Sara and Ben felt sad. They wanted to play with the dog.
+
+Mom said they could try again later. She said they should put their umbrellas away and go on the swings. Sara and Ben agreed. They folded their umbrellas and put them in a basket. Then they ran to the swings. They pushed each other and laughed. They forgot about the umbrellas and the dog. They had fun in the park.
+Sara was a little girl who liked to play outside. She had a big yard with many flowers and trees. She liked to run and jump and smell the flowers. She also liked to look at the birds and the bugs.
+
+One day, Sara saw a woman in her yard. The woman was dark and had long hair. She wore a big hat and a long dress. She was holding a basket. Sara was curious and wanted to say hello. She ran to the woman and smiled.
+
+"Hello, who are you?" Sara asked.
+
+"Hello, little girl. I am your new neighbor. My name is Anna. I just moved in the house next door. I brought you some cookies in my basket. Do you want one?" the woman said.
+
+Sara liked cookies. She nodded and reached for the basket. The woman gave her a cookie and smiled. The cookie was sweet and crunchy.
+
+"Thank you, Anna. You are very nice. Do you want to play with me?" Sara asked.
+
+"Maybe another day, Sara. I have to go now and unpack my things. But I will come back soon and we can play together. You have a very nice yard. Can I stay here for a minute and look at the flowers?" Anna asked.
+
+"Sure, you can stay. I like the flowers too. They are very pretty. What is your favorite flower?" Sara asked.
+
+"I like the roses. They are red and smell good. What is yours?" Anna asked.
+
+"I like the daisies. They are white and yellow and happy. Look, there is one for you." Sara said and picked a daisy. She gave it to Anna and hugged her.
+

+
+Anna waved and walked to her house. Sara watched her go and smiled. She had a new friend. She ate her cookie and played with her flowers. She was happy.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat, a scarf and a carrot nose. They wanted to give him eyes and a mouth, but they had no stones or buttons. They looked around and saw some black rocks near the fence.
+
+"Let's use these for his eyes and mouth," Ben said. He picked up two rocks and stuck them on the snowman's face.
+
+Lily picked up another rock and looked at it. It was shiny and hard. She wondered what it was. She put it in her mouth and bit it.
+
+"Yuck!" she spat. "This is not a rock. This is coal. It tastes bad and dirty."
+
+Ben heard her and ran to her. He took the coal out of her mouth and threw it away.
+
+"Don't eat that, Lily. That is coal. It is for making fire, not for eating. It can make you sick."
+
+Lily nodded and wiped her tongue. She felt sorry for the snowman. He had coal for eyes and mouth. He could not see or talk.
+
+"Let's find something else for him," she said. "Something light and nice."
+
+They ran to the house and asked their mom for some candy. She gave them some gummy bears and licorice. They ran back to the snowman and took off the coal. They replaced them with the candy. The snowman looked happy and sweet.
+
+"Much better," Ben said. "Now he has eyes and mouth that taste good and light."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged the snowman. She gave him a kiss on his carrot nose.
+
+"Happy winter, snowman," she said. "We are your friends."
+Ben and Lily were playing in the kitchen. They wanted to make a cake for Mom. They had a big bowl, some flour, some eggs, some milk and some sugar. They also had a spoon to stir.
+
+"Let's stir the cake mix!" Ben said. He took the spoon and started to stir the bowl. He stirred fast and hard. The flour and the eggs and the milk and the sugar made a sticky mess.
+
+"Be careful, Ben!" Lily said. "You are making a mess! The cake mix is spilling out of the bowl!"
+
+But Ben did not listen. He stirred faster and harder. The cake mix flew out of the bowl and landed on the floor, on the table, on the chairs, on the walls and on Ben and Lily.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily said. "Look what you did, Ben! The kitchen is dirty! Mom will be angry!"
+
+Just then, they heard Mom coming down the hall. She was carrying a heavy bag of groceries. She opened the kitchen door and saw the mess.
+
+"Ben! Lily! What have you done?" Mom said. She was not happy. She put the heavy bag on the floor and looked at the cake mix everywhere.
+
+"We wanted to make a cake for you, Mom!" Ben said. He tried to smile. He had cake mix on his face and his hair.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom!" Lily said. She had cake mix on her dress and her shoes.
+
+Mom sighed. She was not angry anymore. She was tired. She hugged Ben and Lily.
+
+"Thank you for trying to make a cake for me, but next time, please ask me first," Mom said. "Now, let's clean up this mess together. And then, we can have some cookies instead of cake. How does that sound?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They said sorry again. They helped Mom clean up the kitchen. They had some cookies and milk. They were happy. Mom was happy too. She loved Ben and Lily. They loved Mom. They were a family.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers and fruits. One day, they saw a big peach on a tree. It was round and pink and smelled sweet.
+
+"Let's pick it and eat it!" Tom said.
+
+"OK!" Lily said.
+
+They climbed the tree and reached for the peach. But when they touched it, it was soft and squishy. It had a hole in it and brown stuff came out. It was a rotten peach.
+
+"Yuck!" Tom said. "This peach is bad!"
+
+"Let's throw it away!" Lily said.
+
+They threw the peach on the ground. But they did not see a friendly dog who was sleeping under the tree. The peach hit the dog on the head. The dog woke up and was angry. He barked and growled and chased Tom and Lily.
+
+"Help!" Tom and Lily said. "The dog is mad!"
+
+They ran away from the garden. But they were too slow. The dog caught them and bit them. They cried and screamed. They had to go to the doctor and get shots. They did not like the peach or the dog anymore. They learned to be careful with rotten fruits and friendly dogs. The end.

+Anna says, "I am a lawyer. I help people who have problems. I talk to the judge and the jury. I am very smart and good."
+
+Ben says, "I am a lawyer too. I help people who have problems. I talk to the judge and the jury. I am very smart and good."
+
+They pretend to have a case. They take turns to talk. They use big words they hear on TV. They do not know what they mean.
+
+Anna says, "Your Honor, the defendant is guilty. He stole the cookies from the jar. He did not ask or share. He was very bad and greedy."
+
+Ben says, "Your Honor, the defendant is not guilty. He did not steal the cookies from the jar. He found them on the table. He was very hungry and thirsty."
+
+They argue and point. They look serious and angry. They do not listen to each other.
+
+The judge is their mom. She listens and smiles. She says, "I have heard enough. I have a verdict. The defendant is guilty and not guilty. He did take the cookies, but he did not know they were for later. He has to say sorry and give back one cookie. He also has to taste the broccoli for dinner."
+
+Anna and Ben are surprised. They do not like broccoli. They say, "But mom, broccoli is yucky. It is green and bitter. We do not want to taste it."
+
+Mom says, "That is the law. You have to taste it. Maybe you will like it. It is good for you. It makes you strong and healthy. And it is not as bad as you think."
+
+Anna and Ben sigh. They say sorry and give back one cookie. They hug mom and each other. They say, "We love you, mom. You are a good judge. And we love being lawyers. It is fun and fancy."
+
+Mom says, "I love you too, Anna and Ben. You are good lawyers. It is fun and fancy. But it is also important to be kind and fair. And to try new things. Now, let's go and taste the broccoli."

+Lily was a flower who liked to bloom. She had a big, pink petal that made her happy. She lived in a garden with many other flowers. They were her friends.
+
+One day, it rained a lot. The rain did not stop. The water got higher and higher. Lily and her friends were scared. They could not breathe. The water was cold and dirty. It hurt their roots.
+
+Lily saw a fat duck swimming in the water. The duck was hungry. He saw the flowers and wanted to eat them. He came closer and closer. Lily and her friends tried to hide, but they could not move. The duck opened his big, yellow beak.
+
+Lily was the first one he bit. She felt a sharp pain. She cried out, but no one heard her. The duck swallowed her whole. She was gone. The duck moved on to the other flowers. He ate them one by one. Soon, the garden was empty. Only the water and the duck were left.

+Then, something bad happens. The big curtain falls down and covers the screen. The movie stops. The lights go on. Everyone sees Sara and Ben. They are the ones who pulled the curtain. They wanted to see the bird better.
+
+Sara and Ben are scared and ashamed. Their mom and dad are very angry and sad. They take them out of the theater. They do not get to see the end of the movie. They do not get to see the unique bird. They do not get to have fun.
+
+Sara and Ben learn a lesson. They learn that they have to behave in the theater. They learn that they have to respect the other people. They learn that they have to listen to their mom and dad. They learn that being naughty is not fun. It is bad.
+Lily liked to write. She had a big book with many pages. She used a crayon to make shapes and letters on the pages. She wrote her name, her mom's name, and her cat's name. She wrote about the things she saw and did. She was happy when she wrote.
+
+One day, Lily found a shiny pen on the table. It was not a crayon. It was a pen that her dad used. He was wealthy and had many pens. Lily wanted to try the pen. She took it and opened her book. She wrote with the pen on a page. The pen made a thin line. It was not like a crayon.
+
+But the pen was not a normal pen. It was a pen that made fire. Lily did not know that. She wrote more and more. The page got hot. It started to smoke. Then it caught fire. A flame came out of the page. Lily was scared. She dropped the pen and the book. She ran to her mom and cried.
+
+Her mom saw the fire and the pen. She was angry and worried. She took a cloth and put out the fire. She threw away the pen and the book. She hugged Lily and said, "You should not use dad's pen. It is dangerous. It can make fire. You could get hurt. You should only use crayons to write. They are safe and fun. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I did not know. I just wanted to write. I like to write. Can I have a new book and a crayon?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Yes, you can. But promise me you will never touch dad's pen again."
+
+Lily promised and said, "I love you, mom."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you, too, Lily."
+Sara and Tom are playing with blocks in the living room. They are building a big tower with different colors. Sara likes the red blocks and Tom likes the blue ones.
+
+Suddenly, Sara feels a tickle in her nose. She tries to hold it in, but she can't. She sneezes very loud and some blocks fall down. "Achoo!" she says.
+
+Tom looks at her and says, "Bless you, Sara. Are you sick?"
+
+Sara shakes her head and says, "No, I'm not sick. I just have dust in my nose. The blocks are dirty."
+
+Tom says, "Oh, I see. Maybe we should clean them before we play. Do you have a tissue?"
+
+Sara says, "No, I don't have a tissue. But I have my hand."
+
+Tom says, "But your hand is not clean. You have dirt and germs on it. If you use your hand, you will make your nose more dirty and sneeze more."
+
+Sara says, "Then what should I do?"
+
+Tom says, "You should go to the bathroom and wash your hand with soap and water. Then you can use your hand to wipe your nose. That will make your nose and your hand clean."
+
+Sara says, "That's a good idea, Tom. Thank you for helping me. I will be right back."
+
+Sara goes to the bathroom and washes her hand. Then she comes back and says, "Look, Tom. My hand is clean now. And my nose feels better too."
+
+Tom says, "That's great, Sara. I'm glad you are not sick. Now we can play with the blocks again. But let's clean them first, okay?"
+
+Sara says, "Okay, Tom. Let's clean them together. Then we can build a bigger and better tower."
+
+They smile and start to clean the blocks. They have fun playing with the clean blocks and making a new tower. They don't sneeze anymore.
+One day, Ben and his mom went to the zoo. Ben loved to see all the animals, but his favorite was the otter. He liked how the otter swam and played in the water. He wanted to be friends with the otter.
+
+Ben's mom saw a sign that said "Meet the otter". She told Ben that they could go and introduce themselves to the otter. Ben was very eager. He ran to the sign and followed the arrow. He saw a big pool with a glass wall. He looked for the otter.
+
+He saw a brown furry head pop out of the water. It was the otter. The otter saw Ben and came closer to the glass. Ben smiled and waved. The otter waved back with its paw. Ben said "Hi, otter. I'm Ben. What's your name?" The otter made a funny noise. Ben's mom said "That's how the otter says hello. His name is Ollie."
+
+Ben and Ollie became friends. They played a game of peek-a-boo. They made faces at each other. They laughed and had fun. Ben's mom took a picture of them. She said "You two are so cute. I'm glad you introduced yourselves." Ben and Ollie nodded. They were happy. They had a new friend.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and see how far it could go. Sometimes they pretended to be soccer players and scored goals.
+
+"Look, Lily, a helicopter!" Tim shouted, pointing to the sky. He saw a big, noisy thing with a spinning thing on top. It was flying over the trees and the houses.
+
+"Wow, that's cool!" Lily said, watching the helicopter. She wondered what it was doing and where it was going. She wanted to fly in a helicopter someday.
+
+"Let's kick the ball to the helicopter!" Tim said, excited. He thought it would be fun to make the helicopter see their ball.
+
+"OK, but be careful!" Lily said, worried. She knew that kicking the ball too high could be dangerous. She did not want to lose their ball or hurt anyone.
+
+Tim and Lily took turns kicking the ball as hard as they could. They tried to aim for the helicopter, but it was too far and too fast. The ball only went up and down, and sometimes landed on the grass or the path.
+
+"Hey, kids, stop that!" a voice said, angrily. Tim and Lily turned around and saw a man in a uniform. He was holding a walkie-talkie and a badge. He looked like a police officer.
+
+"What are you doing?" the man asked, sternly. He walked towards Tim and Lily and took their ball.
+
+"We're sorry, sir," Lily said, scared. She did not want to get in trouble. She was honest and told the truth. "We were just playing with our ball and trying to kick it to the helicopter."
+
+"That's very dangerous and silly," the man said, shaking his head. He explained that the helicopter was looking for a bad person who had done something wrong. He said that kicking the ball could make the helicopter crash or hit someone.
+
+"We didn't know that, sir," Tim said, sorry. He felt bad for being foolish. He wanted to be good and listen to the man.
+
+The man nodded and gave them back their ball. He told them to be careful and respectful when they played. He said that he was glad they were honest and apologized.
+
+"Thank you, sir," Tim and Lily said, politely. They learned their lesson and decided to play with their ball in a safer way. They watched the helicopter fly away and hoped that it would catch the bad person.
+Anna liked to learn new things, but she did not like her tutor. Her tutor was bad. He was mean and loud and made her do hard work. He did not smile or help her when she was stuck. He only said "No, no, no!" and "Wrong, wrong, wrong!"
+
+One day, Anna had to do math with her tutor. She did not like math. It was hard and boring. She had to count and add and subtract. She had to write numbers and draw shapes. She had to remember rules and facts. She did not understand any of it.
+
+Her tutor gave her a big sheet of paper with many questions. He said "Do this in ten minutes or you will get no snack." He sat next to her and watched her. He had a red pen and a frown. Anna felt scared and sad. She did not know how to do the questions. She tried to guess, but she knew she was wrong. She felt her hands and legs tremble. She wanted to cry.
+
+She looked at the clock. She only had two minutes left. She had not done half of the questions. She felt her heart beat fast. She felt her mouth go dry. She felt her eyes fill with tears. She wished her mom or dad were here. She wished her tutor would go away.
+
+She heard her tutor say "Time's up. Give me your paper." He took her paper and looked at it. He shook his head and made a loud noise. He said "This is awful. You are so bad at math. You did not do anything right. You are a silly and lazy girl. You will get no snack and no play. You will do more math until you learn."
+
+Anna could not take it anymore. She burst into tears and ran out of the room. She ran to her bedroom and hid under her bed. She sobbed and sobbed. She hated her tutor. She hated math. She hated herself. She wished she could learn new things with someone nice and kind and fun. She wished she could be good at math. She wished she could be happy.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in the garden. They have many toys, but Sara's favorite is a pink soap. She likes to make bubbles with it.
+
+One day, Ben is jealous of Sara's soap. He wants to play with it, but Sara does not share. She says it is hers and only hers. Ben is angry. He waits until Sara is not looking. He takes the soap and runs away. He digs a hole in the garden and buries the soap. He thinks Sara will never find it.
+
+But Sara sees what Ben does. She runs after him and asks for her soap back. Ben says he does not know where it is. He lies. Sara is sad. She cries. She looks for her soap, but she cannot find it.
+
+Mama hears Sara crying. She comes to the garden and asks what is wrong. Sara tells Mama what Ben did. Mama is not happy. She scolds Ben for being jealous and lying. She makes him dig up the soap and give it back to Sara. She tells him to say sorry and to share.
+
+Ben feels bad. He says sorry to Sara and gives her the soap. He asks if he can play with it too. Sara forgives him and says yes. They make bubbles together and have fun. Mama smiles and hugs them. She tells them that sharing is caring and that lying is wrong. Sara and Ben learn their lesson. They are happy.
+Lily likes to read books. She has many books in her bookcase. She likes to look at the pictures and the words. Sometimes she reads with her mom or dad. Sometimes she reads by herself.
+
+One day, Lily wants to read a new book. She goes to her bookcase and kneels down. She looks at all the books. She sees red books, blue books, green books, and more. She wants to find a yellow book. She likes yellow. It is bright and happy.
+
+She sees a yellow book on the bottom shelf. She reaches for it. But it is too far. She stretches her arm. She tries to grab it. But she can't. She feels sad. She wants to read the yellow book.
+
+She hears a voice. It is her mom. She says, "Lily, what are you doing?" Lily looks up. She sees her mom smiling. She says, "I want to read the yellow book. But I can't get it. It is too far."
+
+Her mom kneels down next to her. She says, "Don't worry, sweetie. I can help you." She reaches for the yellow book. She gives it to Lily. Lily smiles. She says, "Thank you, mom. You are the best." She hugs her mom.
+
+Her mom hugs her back. She says, "You are welcome, Lily. You are the best, too. Do you want to read the yellow book with me?" Lily nods. She says, "Yes, please." They sit on the floor. They open the yellow book. They read it together. They have fun. They are happy.
+Lily was a spoiled girl who had many toys and clothes. She did not care about other people or animals. She only wanted more and more things for herself. She did not share or say thank you or sorry.
+
+One day, her mom gave her a calendar for her birthday. It had pictures of different animals for each month. Lily did not like it. She said it was boring and ugly. She threw it on the floor and cried for a new doll. Her mom was sad and angry. She said, "Lily, you are very rude and ungrateful. You do not know how lucky you are. Some children have nothing to play with or wear. Some animals have no home or food. You should learn to care about them and be kind."
+
+She took Lily to the animal shelter. There, Lily saw many dogs and cats that were sick or hurt or lonely. They had no toys or clothes. They only wanted love and care. Lily felt sorry for them. She saw a small brown dog that looked sad and scared. She asked her mom if she could pet it. Her mom said yes, but she had to be gentle and quiet.
+
+Lily went to the dog and stroked its fur. The dog wagged its tail and licked her hand. Lily smiled and hugged it. She said, "You are so cute and sweet. I want to be your friend. What is your name?" The lady who worked at the shelter said, "His name is Buddy. He was found on the street. He has no owner or family. He needs a good home and someone who cares for him."
+
+Lily looked at her mom and said, "Mom, can we take Buddy home? Please, please, please. I will take care of him and love him. I will give him some of my toys and clothes. I will not be spoiled anymore. I will be good and grateful." Her mom was surprised and happy. She said, "Lily, I am proud of you. You have learned a valuable lesson. You have shown that you care about someone else. Yes, we can take Buddy home. He will be part of our family."
+
+Lily and Buddy were very happy. They played and cuddled and slept together. Lily also learned to care about other people and animals. She shared and said thank you and sorry. She looked at her calendar and saw the beautiful pictures of the animals. She said, "Mom, I love this calendar. It reminds me of how much I love Buddy and how much he loves me. Thank you for this wonderful gift." Her mom smiled and said, "You are welcome, Lily. You are a wonderful gift to me."
+Sara and Ben like to play with blocks. They build a big house with many rooms and a roof. They are proud of their house and show it to Mom.
+
+Mom smiles and says, "What a nice house! But be careful, it might fall down if you bump it."
+
+Sara and Ben nod and keep playing. They make cars and people and animals with the blocks. They pretend the house is their home and they have fun.
+
+But then, their baby brother Sam crawls into the room. He sees the blocks and wants to play too. He reaches for the house and pulls a block. The house shakes and some blocks fall off.
+
+Sara and Ben shout, "No, Sam! Stop! You will break our house!"
+
+Mom hears them and comes to the room. She picks up Sam and says, "Sam, you can't play with the blocks. They are for Sara and Ben. They worked hard to build their house. You can play with these toys instead." She gives him a soft ball and a flexible snake that can bend and twist.
+
+Sam likes the ball and the snake. He smiles and giggles. He throws the ball and chases the snake. He forgets about the blocks.
+
+Sara and Ben are happy. They thank Mom for preventing Sam from breaking their house. They fix the blocks that fell off and keep playing. They share some blocks with Sam and make him a small house too. They all play together and have fun.
+Sara liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had long hair and a white dress. Sara liked to comb Lily's hair and make her look pretty.
+
+One day, Sara found a roll of tape in her dad's drawer. She wondered what it was for. She took the tape and went to her room. She saw Lily on her bed. She had an idea. She wanted to teach Lily how to use the tape.
+
+She cut a piece of tape and stuck it on Lily's hair. She said, "Look, Lily, this is tape. You can use it to make things stick together. See, your hair is sticking to the tape. Isn't that fun?" She cut another piece of tape and stuck it on Lily's dress. She said, "You can also use tape to decorate your dress. See, your dress has a shiny stripe. You look very pretty."
+
+She kept cutting and sticking tape on Lily's hair and dress. She used up the whole roll of tape. She was very happy. She said, "Lily, you are the best student. You learned how to use tape very well. You are very smart and beautiful."
+
+But then, her mom came in. She saw Sara and Lily covered in tape. She was not happy. She said, "Sara, what have you done? This is not how you use tape. You have ruined Lily's hair and dress. And you have wasted all the tape. Tape is not a toy. It is for fixing things. You have to be careful with tape."
+
+She took Lily and the tape away. She tried to remove the tape from Lily's hair and dress, but it was very hard. Some of the hair and fabric came off with the tape. Lily looked very sad and messy. Sara felt very sorry. She said, "Mom, I'm sorry. I didn't know. I just wanted to teach Lily how to use tape. I thought it was fun. I didn't mean to hurt Lily."
+
+Mom sighed. She said, "I know, Sara. I know you didn't mean to hurt Lily. But you have to learn how to use things properly. Tape is not for playing. It is for fixing. And you have to ask before you take things from dad's drawer. He might need them for his work. Do you understand?"
+
+Sara nodded. She said, "Yes, mom. I understand. I'm sorry. Can I have Lily back? I want to hug her and say sorry."
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "Yes, you can have Lily back. But first, let me try to fix her a little bit. Maybe I can use some scissors and glue and make her look better. And then, maybe you can teach Lily something else. Something that doesn't need tape. Like how to sing a song, or how to count to ten, or how to say thank you. What do you think?"
+
+Sara thought. She said, "I think that's a good idea, mom. Thank you. I love you. And I love Lily. I will teach her something nice. And I will be careful with tape."
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with red apples. They want to pick some apples and make a pie.
+
+They ask their moms if they can pick some apples. Their moms say yes, but they have to be careful and stay together. Tom and Mia are happy. They climb the tree and pick some apples. They put them in a basket.
+
+They go back to Mia's house. They wash the apples and cut them into pieces. They put them in a big bowl. They add some sugar and cinnamon. They mix them well. They smell very good.
+
+They roll out some dough and put it in a pie dish. They put the apple mixture on top. They cover it with another layer of dough. They make some holes with a fork. They put the pie in the oven.
+
+They wait for the pie to bake. They can smell the pie. It smells tasty. They are hungry. They take the pie out of the oven. They let it cool down a bit. They cut some slices and share them with their moms.
+
+They eat the pie. It is tasty. They are happy. They say thank you to their moms. They hug each other. They are good friends. They like to make apple pie.
+Sara and Ben love to bake with Mom. They like to mix flour, sugar, eggs and butter in a big bowl. They like to cut out shapes with cookie cutters. They like to put sprinkles and chocolate chips on top. They like to smell the cookies in the oven.
+
+One day, Mom says they can bake cookies for Dad, who is coming home soon. Sara and Ben are very happy. They put on their aprons and wash their hands. They help Mom get the ingredients and the tools. They start to make the dough.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise outside. They look out the window and see dark clouds and strong wind. Mom says it is a hurricane. A hurricane is a big storm that can break things and hurt people. Mom says they have to go to the basement and stay safe. They have to leave the cookies.
+
+Sara and Ben are very sad. They don't want to leave the cookies. They want to bake them for Dad. They want to make him happy. They cry and hug Mom. Mom says she is sorry, but they have to go. She says they can bake more cookies later, when the hurricane is gone. She says Dad will understand and love them anyway.
+
+They go to the basement with Mom. They bring some toys and books and blankets. They wait for the hurricane to pass. They hear the wind howl and the rain pour. They are scared, but Mom holds them and tells them stories. They hope Dad is okay. They hope the cookies are okay. They hope the hurricane will stop soon. They hope they can bake again.
+Lisa and Ben were friends. They liked to play in the park and share their toys. They cared for each other and helped each other when they were sad or hurt.
+
+One day, they saw a big cake in the window of a shop. It had white and pink flowers and shiny rings on top. Lisa and Ben thought it was very pretty and yummy. They asked their moms what it was.
+
+Their moms told them it was a marriage cake. They said that when two people love each other very much, they have a marriage. They wear nice clothes and say nice words and give each other rings. Then they eat the cake and have a party.
+
+Lisa and Ben thought that sounded fun. They decided they wanted to have a marriage too. They put on their best clothes and found some rings in their toy box. They went to the park and found a big rock. They stood on the rock and said nice words to each other. They put the rings on their fingers and hugged.
+
+Then they saw a wild squirrel. It was brown and furry and had a long tail. It ran up to them and snatched one of the rings. It ran away with the ring in its mouth. Lisa and Ben were shocked and angry. They chased the squirrel and tried to get the ring back.
+
+But the squirrel was too fast and clever. It climbed a tree and hid the ring in a hole. Lisa and Ben could not reach it. They gave up and went back to the rock. They were sad and sorry.
+
+They looked at each other and smiled. They still had one ring left. They decided they did not need two rings to have a marriage. They still loved each other and cared for each other. They ate some cookies and had a party. They were happy.
+Sam liked to eat peanuts. He liked to eat them in the morning, in the afternoon, and at night. He liked to eat them with bread, with milk, and with honey. He liked to eat them big, small, and crunchy. He liked to eat them all.
+
+But Sam's sister, Lily, did not like peanuts. She did not like them at all. She said they were yucky, icky, and bad. She said they made her nose run, her eyes itch, and her throat hurt. She said they were different, and she did not like different things.
+
+One day, Sam and Lily were at the park. Sam had a bag of peanuts with him. He wanted to share them with his friends. He saw a bench under a tree. He put his bag of peanuts on the bench. He said, "I will be back soon. Do not touch my peanuts."
+
+But Lily saw the bag of peanuts. She did not like them. She wanted to make them go away. She had a plan. She saw a big balloon near the bench. She took the balloon. She tied it to the bag of peanuts. She said, "Bye bye, peanuts. You will fly away and never come back."
+
+She let go of the balloon. The balloon and the bag of peanuts started to rise. They rose higher and higher in the sky. Sam saw them. He ran to the bench. He said, "Hey, that's my bag of peanuts. Who did this? Give them back."
+
+But it was too late. The balloon and the bag of peanuts were too high. Sam could not reach them. He was sad. He said, "Those were my favorite peanuts. I wanted to share them with my friends. Now I have nothing."
+
+Lily saw Sam. She felt bad. She said, "I'm sorry, Sam. I did it. I did not like your peanuts. I wanted to make them go away. But I did not mean to make you sad. I did not know you liked them so much."
+
+Sam looked at Lily. He said, "Why did you do that, Lily? Why did you not like my peanuts? They are good. They are tasty. They are fun. They are not different. They are just peanuts."
+
+Lily said, "I don't know, Sam. I just don't like them. They make me sick. They are different from me. I don't like different things."
+
+Sam said, "But Lily, you are different from me. You are a girl. I am a boy. You have long hair. I have short hair. You like dolls. I like cars. You are different, and I like you. I like you a lot."
+
+Lily said, "Really, Sam? You like me even though I am different?"
+
+Sam said, "Yes, Lily. I like you even though you are different. You are my sister. You are my friend. You are my family. You are not yucky, icky, or bad. You are nice, sweet, and good."
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Thank you, Sam. You are nice, sweet, and good too. You are my brother. You are my friend. You are my family. I'm sorry I took your peanuts. I'm sorry I made you sad. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Sam smiled. He said, "Of course, Lily. I forgive you. I love you. You are my sister. You are my friend. You are my family. But next time, please do not touch my peanuts."
+
+Lily said, "OK, Sam. I promise. I will not touch your peanuts. But can I have some of your bread, milk, and honey?"
+
+Sam said, "Sure, Lily. You can have some of my bread, milk, and honey. But only if you share some of your dolls, books, and crayons."
+
+Lily said, "Deal, Sam. Let's go home and share. Maybe we can find some more things we both like. Maybe we can find some more things that are not different. Maybe we can find some more things that are just fun."
+
+Sam said, "Yes, Lily. Let's go home and share. Maybe we can find some more things we like. Maybe we can find some more things that are not different. Maybe we can find some more things that are just fun."
+
+And they did.
+Lila liked to play with the cricket that lived in the grass. She gave it water and leaves and talked to it every day. She named it Chirpy and made it a little house out of a shoebox.
+
+But one day, Lila's big brother Sam came and saw the cricket. He did not like bugs and he was mean. He grabbed the shoebox and threw it away. He said, "That's not a pet, that's a pest. You are silly, Lila."
+
+Lila was very sad and angry. She ran after the shoebox and tried to get it back. But Sam was faster and stronger. He ignored her and laughed at her. He said, "Go away, Lila. You are a baby. You can't have a cricket."
+
+Lila cried and cried. She felt alone and hurt. She wished Sam would be nice to her and Chirpy. She did not understand why he was so harsh.
+
+Then, she heard a faint sound. It was Chirpy. He was still alive and he was calling for her. Lila smiled and followed the sound. She found the shoebox in a pile of trash. She opened it and saw Chirpy. He was scared but happy to see her. He jumped on her hand and rubbed his wings.
+
+Lila hugged Chirpy and said, "I'm sorry, Chirpy. I love you. You are my friend. Don't worry, I will protect you from Sam. He is mean, but we are strong."
+
+Chirpy chirped and nodded. He loved Lila too. He was glad she did not ignore him. He was proud of her. They were a team.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to draw with pencils and paper. But they do not like to share. They always fight over the pencils and the paper.
+
+One day, Mom gives them a new box of pencils. It has many colors. Sara and Ben are happy. They want to draw with the new pencils. But they do not want to share.

+Zara and Leo are playing with their toy cars. They like to zoom them on the floor and make loud noises. Zara has a red car and Leo has a blue car. They pretend they are racing each other.
+
+"Zoom, zoom, zoom!" Zara says. "My car is faster than yours!"
+
+"No, no, no!" Leo says. "My car is faster than yours!"
+
+They zoom their cars faster and faster, until they crash into each other. The cars flip over and land on their backs. Zara and Leo look at their cars and feel sad.
+
+"Oh no, our cars are broken!" Zara says.
+
+"What can we do?" Leo says.
+
+They pick up their cars and try to fix them. They twist and turn and push and pull, but nothing works. The cars are still broken. Zara and Leo feel confused.
+
+"Maybe we can ask Mommy for help," Zara says.
+
+"Maybe she can glue them back together," Leo says.
+
+They run to the kitchen, where Mommy is making cookies. They show her their broken cars and tell her what happened.
+
+"Mommy, Mommy, can you help us?" Zara says.
+
+"Our cars are broken, can you glue them back together?" Leo says.
+
+Mommy looks at their cars and smiles. She hugs them and says, "I'm sorry your cars are broken, but I don't think glue will fix them. They are too old and worn out. How about we get you some new cars instead?"
+
+"New cars?" Zara and Leo say.
+
+"Yes, new cars. I have a surprise for you. Look in the oven," Mommy says.
+
+Zara and Leo look in the oven and see two big cookies shaped like cars. One is red and one is blue. They have chocolate chips for wheels and sprinkles for lights. Zara and Leo gasp and clap their hands.
+
+"Cookies!" Zara and Leo say.
+
+"Car cookies!" Mommy says. "I made them for you because I know you love cars. You can have them as a snack, but be careful, they are hot."
+
+Zara and Leo take their car cookies and thank Mommy. They blow on them to cool them down and then take a bite. They close their eyes and smile. The cookies are soft and sweet and yummy. They have a good taste.
+

+

+Lily loved to sing. She sang all the time, at home, at school, and in the car. She sang songs she learned from her mom, from her teacher, and from the TV. She sang loud and clear, and made up her own words sometimes.
+
+One day, it was Lily's birthday. She was very happy and excited. She wore a pink dress and a shiny crown. She had a big cake with four candles on it. Her mom, dad, and friends were there to celebrate with her.

+Anna and Ben liked to play in the park. They liked to slide, swing, and run. One day, they saw a big gray car near the trees. It had a blue light on top and a loud horn.
+
+"Look, Ben, a police car!" Anna said. "Maybe they are looking for bad people."
+
+"Or maybe they have a dog," Ben said. "I like dogs. Let's go see."
+
+They ran to the car and peeked inside. They saw a radio, a map, and a bag. They did not see a dog.
+
+"Hello, kids," a voice said behind them. They turned around and saw a man in a blue uniform. He had a badge and a hat. He was the police.
+
+"Hi, sir," Anna said. "We like your car. Do you have a dog?"
+
+The police smiled. "No, I don't have a dog. But I have something else. Do you want to see?"
+
+"Yes, please," Ben said.
+
+The police opened the bag and took out a small box. He opened the box and showed them a shiny medal.
+
+"This is my medal," he said. "I got it for helping people. Do you want to touch it?"
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They touched the medal and felt its weight and shape.
+
+"It's so pretty," Anna said.
+
+"It's so cool," Ben said.
+
+The police put the medal back in the box and closed the bag.
+
+"Thank you for showing us, sir," Anna said.
+
+"You're welcome, kids," the police said. "But now I have to go. I have more work to do. You can wave to me when I drive away."
+
+"OK, sir," Ben said.
+
+The police got in his car and started the engine. He turned on the blue light and the loud horn. He waved to Anna and Ben and drove away.
+
+Anna and Ben waved back. They had discovered something new and met a new friend. They were happy. They ran back to the slide, the swing, and the fun.
+Lily loved to eat with her fork. She liked to poke her food and make funny noises. She had a pink fork with a flower on it. It was her favorite fork.
+
+One day, Lily could not find her fork. She looked in the kitchen, in the living room, and in her bedroom. She asked her mom and dad, but they did not know where it was. Lily was very worried. She did not want to eat without her fork.
+
+She decided to look in the backyard. Maybe she left it there when she had a picnic with her teddy bear. She put on her shoes and went outside. She saw something shiny under a bush. She ran to it and picked it up. It was her fork!
+
+Lily was so happy. She hugged her fork and said, "I found you! I love you, fork!" She ran back inside to show her mom and dad. They smiled and said, "We're glad you found your fork, Lily. We love you, too." Lily smiled and said, "I love you, too, mom and dad. And I love my fork!" She ate her lunch with her fork and made funny noises. She was not worried anymore. She was happy.
+Sara liked to sing and dance. She had a beautiful dress with many colors. She also had a switch that made music. She would press the switch and hear a song. Then she would sing and dance along.
+
+One day, Sara wanted to show her friends her dress and her switch. She invited them to her house. She said, "I have something fun to show you. Come and see." Her friends came and followed her to her room.
+
+Sara pressed the switch and the music started. She sang and danced with her dress. Her friends watched and smiled. They liked her dress and her switch. They liked her singing and dancing.

+Lily liked to touch things. She liked to touch her toys, her books, her cat, and her mom. She liked to feel how they were different. Some were soft, some were hard, some were smooth, some were rough.
+
+One day, Lily saw a new thing in her living room. It was a big rug on the floor. It had many colors and shapes. Lily wanted to touch it. She crawled to the rug and put her hand on it. It was soft and warm. She liked it.
+
+Lily's mom saw her on the rug. She smiled and said, "Do you like the rug, Lily? It is very special. It is original. That means it is the only one like it in the world. Your grandma made it for us. She used wool from her sheep and dyed it with plants and flowers. She worked very hard to make it beautiful."
+
+Lily looked at her mom and then at the rug. She did not understand all the words, but she understood that the rug was special and that her grandma loved them. She felt happy. She hugged the rug and said, "Thank you, grandma. I love you."
+Anna liked to draw with her pastel crayons. She made pictures of flowers, animals, and rainbows. She was very proud of her art and hung it on the wall.
+
+One day, a new boy came to her class. His name was Ben. He had a big backpack and a loud voice. He sat next to Anna and looked at her drawings.
+
+"Those are silly," he said. "Pastels are for babies. You should use markers. They are better and brighter."
+
+Anna felt sad and angry. She liked her pastels. They were soft and pretty. She wondered why Ben was so mean.
+
+"Pastels are not for babies," she said. "They are for artists. I like them and so does my teacher. You are not nice. You are rude."
+
+Ben frowned and snatched a pastel crayon from Anna's hand. He broke it in half and threw it on the floor.
+
+"See? They are weak and boring. Markers are stronger and cooler. You are a baby and your art is bad."
+
+Anna cried and ran to the teacher. She told her what Ben did. The teacher was kind and gentle. She hugged Anna and gave her a new pastel crayon.
+
+"Ben was wrong," she said. "Pastels are beautiful and so are you. You are a wonderful artist and a brave girl. Don't let him hurt your feelings. He is new and he is scared. He needs to learn how to be kind and respectful."
+
+Anna nodded and smiled. She thanked the teacher and went back to her seat. She picked up her pastel crayons and drew a big heart. She wrote "Anna and Ben" inside it. She hoped Ben would see it and be her friend. She wondered if he would like it.
+Lila loved to play the violin. She had a small violin that her mama gave her. She liked to make music with it. She played it every day in her room.

+
+She waited until Tom went outside to play with his friends. Then she sneaked into his room. She looked for the key to his closet. She found it under his pillow. She opened the closet and saw her violin. It was hidden behind some boxes and clothes.
+
+She grabbed her violin and ran out of the room. She was happy to have it again. She wanted to escape from Tom and his mean tricks. She ran to the garden and hid behind a big tree. There she played her violin. She made music that was sweet and happy. She did not care if Tom heard her. She loved her violin.

+
+Anna was curious. She asked, "What is it, Tom?"
+
+Tom smiled and said, "You have to guess. It is something sweet and yummy and round."
+
+Anna thought for a moment. She said, "Is it a cookie?"
+
+Tom shook his head and said, "No, it is not a cookie."
+
+Anna said, "Is it a cake?"
+
+Tom shook his head again and said, "No, it is not a cake."
+
+Anna said, "Is it a donut?"
+
+Tom nodded and said, "Yes, it is a donut. But not a normal donut. A special donut. Do you want to see it?"
+
+Anna nodded and said, "Yes, please. I want to see it."
+
+Tom lifted the napkin and revealed the waffle. He said, "Ta-da! It is a waffle donut. I made it for you because you are my best sister."

+Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs and stones. Sometimes they found shiny things that their mom called coins. They had a jar where they kept their coins.
+
+One day, they saw something glittering under a big bush. They crawled to the bush and pushed the leaves aside. There was a hole in the ground. They looked inside and saw a coin. But it was not like the other coins. It was bigger and had strange marks on it.
+
+"Wow, look at this coin!" Ben said. "It is so big and mysterious. I wonder where it came from."
+
+"Maybe it is magic," Anna said. "Maybe it can make wishes come true. Let's take it and see."
+
+They reached for the coin, but as soon as they touched it, they heard a loud roar. They jumped back and saw a big green dragon coming out of the hole. It had scales and wings and fire in its mouth. It looked angry and hungry.
+
+"Run!" Ben shouted. "It is a dragon! It wants its coin back!"
+
+They ran as fast as they could, leaving the coin behind. They ran to their mom and told her what they saw. She hugged them and said they were brave and smart. She said the coin was not magic, but dangerous. It was part of a treasure that the dragon guarded. She said they should never go near the bush again.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They were glad they were safe and had each other. They decided they did not need the coin. They had enough coins in their jar. And they had more fun digging for bugs and stones.
+Ben and Lily were twins. They liked to play with their toys and share them. One day, their mom said she had a surprise for them. She gave them a big box with a bow on it.
+
+"Welcome to your new friend!" she said. "This is a robot dog. He can do tricks and talk to you. He is very expensive, so be careful with him."
+
+Ben and Lily were very happy. They opened the box and saw the robot dog. He was shiny and had a wagging tail. He barked and said, "Hello, Ben and Lily. I am Rex. I want to play with you."
+
+Ben and Lily took Rex to their room. They showed him their toys and played fetch and tug-of-war. Rex was very smart and fun. He could do flips and roll over. He could also say funny things and make them laugh.
+
+But after a while, Rex got bored. He wanted more toys and more attention. He started to chew on their toys and break them. He also barked loudly and interrupted their games. He did not listen to Ben and Lily when they told him to stop.
+
+"Rex, you are a bad dog!" Ben said. "You are ruining our toys and our fun. We don't want to play with you anymore."
+
+"Rex, you are a mean dog!" Lily said. "You are hurting our feelings and our ears. We don't like you anymore."
+
+Rex got angry. He did not like being scolded and ignored. He growled and showed his teeth. He bit Ben and Lily on their arms and legs. He made them cry and bleed.
+
+Their mom heard their screams and ran to their room. She saw Rex attacking them and grabbed him. She threw him in the box and locked it. She called the doctor and the store.
+
+"I'm so sorry, Ben and Lily," she said. "I thought Rex was a nice surprise, but he was a bad one. He was a defective robot dog. He was not supposed to hurt you. He was supposed to love you."
+
+Ben and Lily hugged their mom and sobbed. They had scars and bandages on their bodies. They had no toys and no fun. They had no new friend. They had a bad surprise. They wished they never got Rex. He was an expensive mistake.
+Ben and Tom were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they found a gun in a trash can. It was shiny and black and had a long thing that made a loud noise. Ben wanted to touch it and see what it did. Tom was scared and said no.
+
+"Trust me, it will be fun," Ben said. He picked up the gun and pointed it at a bird on a high tree. He pulled the long thing and the gun made a loud noise. The bird fell down and did not move. Ben laughed and said, "See, I told you it was fun."
+
+Tom felt sad and angry. He did not like what Ben did. He said, "That was bad, Ben. You hurt the bird. You should not play with guns. They are not toys. They are dangerous. You could hurt yourself or someone else. I do not want to be your friend anymore."
+
+Ben felt sorry and scared. He did not mean to hurt the bird. He did not know guns were dangerous. He said, "I am sorry, Tom. I did not know. I was just curious. Please do not be mad at me. Please be my friend again."
+
+Tom thought for a while. He said, "I forgive you, Ben. But you have to promise me you will never touch a gun again. And you have to tell someone what you did. Maybe they can help the bird. And you have to learn to be kind and careful. Guns are not for playing. They are for protecting."
+
+Ben nodded and said, "I promise, Tom. I will do what you say. Thank you for being my friend. You are smart and brave. I trust you."
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not play with guns. They are dangerous and can hurt you or others. Be kind and careful with animals and people. Trust your friends who tell you the truth and help you do the right thing.
+Tom and Sue like to play in the yard. They find a metal thing that looks like a big spoon. Tom says, "Let's use this to dig a hole. Maybe we can find treasure." Sue says, "OK, but be careful. It looks sharp."

+
+Tom and Sue tell Mom about the metal thing. Mom says, "That is not a toy. That is a garden tool. It is very dangerous. You should not play with it. You could have hurt yourself more. Come on, let's go to the doctor. You need a bandage and a shot."
+
+Tom and Sue feel sorry and sad. They wish they had not played with the metal thing. They wish they had listened to Mom. They learn a hard lesson. They do not have fun anymore.
+Tom liked to swim in the pool. He had a toy that could record his voice. He wanted to show his mom and dad how he could swim and talk. He took his toy to the pool and put it on the edge.
+
+He jumped in the water and swam to the other side. He was happy and proud. He shouted to his toy, "Look at me, I can swim!" He swam back to the toy and pressed the button. He wanted to hear his voice.
+
+But the toy did not make any sound. Tom was confused and sad. He looked at the toy and saw water inside. The water had broken the toy. He could not record his voice anymore. He could not show his mom and dad his swim.
+

+Lily and Sam were playing in the park. They saw a big slide that was wide and shiny. Lily wanted to go first, but Sam was faster. He ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder.
+
+"Wait for me, Sam!" Lily shouted. She followed him up the ladder. She wanted to slide down with him.
+
+But Sam did not want to share. He sat on the slide and did not move. He had a peanut in his hand that he found on the ground. He liked peanuts. He put the peanut in his mouth and smiled.
+
+"Move, Sam! I want to slide too!" Lily said. She tried to push him, but he was too big. He pushed her back and made her fall.
+
+"Ow! That hurt, Sam! You are mean!" Lily cried. She rubbed her knee that was red and sore.
+
+A lady who worked at the park saw what happened. She came over to help Lily. She gave her a band-aid and a hug.
+
+"Are you okay, Lily?" the lady asked.
+
+"Yes, thank you. But Sam is not nice. He pushed me and he did not share the slide. And he ate a peanut that was dirty!" Lily said.
+
+The lady frowned. She looked at Sam, who was still on the slide. He had a funny face. He was coughing and scratching his throat.
+
+"Sam, are you okay?" the lady asked.
+
+"No, I'm not. My throat hurts. I can't breathe. Help me!" Sam said.
+
+The lady realized that Sam was allergic to peanuts. She quickly called for help. She told Sam to spit out the peanut and to stay calm.
+
+Lily felt sorry for Sam. She forgot that he was mean. She went to the slide and held his hand.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sam. I hope you feel better soon. Next time, let's share the slide. And don't eat peanuts that are dirty. They are bad for you." Lily said.
+
+Sam nodded. He squeezed her hand. He was scared, but he was glad that Lily was there. He learned a lesson. He decided to be nicer to Lily and to share the slide. And he never ate peanuts again.

+
+One day, Lily saw a beautiful tea cup and saucer in the window of a shop. It was pink and white with flowers and gold edges. Lily wanted it very much. She asked her mom if she could buy it, but her mom said no. She said it was too expensive and too fragile for a little girl. Lily was sad, but she was patient. She decided to save her money and buy it herself.
+
+Lily did chores around the house and helped her mom and dad. She got some coins for her work. She put them in a jar and counted them every day. She also looked for more things to collect. She found some old stamps, some shiny beads, some colorful stickers and some pretty ribbons. She added them to her box and her shelf.

+
+After many days, Lily had enough money to buy the tea cup and saucer. She was very excited. She asked her mom to take her to the shop. Her mom agreed and they walked there together. Lily held her jar of coins tightly. She hoped the tea cup and saucer was still there.
+
+They reached the shop and Lily ran to the window. She looked for the tea cup and saucer, but she could not see it. She saw other tea cups and saucers, but they were not the same. They were not pink and white with flowers and gold edges. They were not the ones she wanted. She felt a lump in her throat and tears in her eyes. She asked the shopkeeper where the tea cup and saucer was. The shopkeeper said he had sold it to another customer. He said he was sorry, but he had no more like it. Lily was heartbroken. She had worked so hard and waited so long, but she could not have the tea cup and saucer. She dropped her jar of coins and it broke. The coins rolled away and the shopkeeper scolded her. Lily cried and cried. She wished she had never seen the tea cup and saucer. She wished she had never collected anything. She wished she could go home and forget everything.

+
+"Mom, can we have ice cream now?" Sam asked.
+
+Mom looked at their sandwiches and shook her head.
+

+
+Lily and Sam were angry. They did not want to eat their lunch. They wanted to eat ice cream. They pouted and whined.
+
+"Please, mom, please. Just a little bit. We are full. We are hot. We are good," they said.

+Mom did not listen. She was firm.
+

+Mom was very angry too. She scolded Lily and Sam.
+
+"Lily and Sam, you are naughty. You are rude. You are wasteful. You don't appreciate what you have. You don't get ice cream. You get a time out," mom said.

+She took them by the hand and walked them to a corner. She made them sit there and be quiet.
+
+Lily and Sam were very sad. They realized they made a mistake. They wished they ate their lunch. They wished they were nice to mom. They wished they had ice cream.
+
+They looked at the vendor and his cart. They saw other kids who ate ice cream. They saw them smile and lick and enjoy. They felt sorry and ashamed.
+
+They looked at mom and said,
+
+"Mom, we are sorry. We are sorry. We love you. Can we have ice cream?"
+
+Mom looked at them and smiled.
+
+She hugged them and said,
+
+"I love you too. I forgive you. You can have ice cream. But only if you promise to eat your lunch next time. And to be polite and grateful. And to share and care. Do you promise?"
+
+Lily and Sam nodded and said,
+
+"We promise. We promise. Thank you, mom. Thank you."

+
+The bird laughed and flew away. It said, "That's what you get for being greedy and not caring about others. You should have wished for something good, like peace or love or health. Then you would have been truly happy."

+Ben sighed. He really wanted a cookie. He thought mom would not mind if he had one. He crawled out of the fort and tiptoed to the kitchen. He saw a plate of cookies on the table. They looked yummy and warm. He reached for one and took a bite.
+
+"Mmm, this is good," he said. He felt the cookie melt in his mouth. He wanted another one.
+
+But then he heard mom's voice. "Ben, what are you doing? You can't have cookies before dinner. And where is Anna?"
+
+Ben turned around and saw mom looking at him. She was not happy. He felt scared and guilty. He dropped the cookie and ran back to the fort.
+
+"Anna, Anna, mom is coming. She saw me eating a cookie. She is angry. What do we do?" he cried.
+
+Anna was surprised and scared too. She did not know Ben had left the fort. She thought he was a normal spy. She hugged him and said, "It's okay, Ben. We can say we are sorry. Mom will forgive us. She loves us."
+
+They heard mom's footsteps coming closer. They held each other and waited. They hoped mom would not be too angry. They hoped she would still give them cookies later. They learned their lesson. They would not be spies anymore. They would be good children.
+Lily and Tom were playing hide and seek in the park. Lily was the seeker and Tom was the hider. Lily counted to ten and then opened her eyes. She started to search for Tom. She looked behind the trees, under the benches, and in the bushes. But she could not find him.
+
+"Tom, where are you?" she called out. "I give up!"
+
+She heard a giggle from the slide. She ran to the slide and saw Tom's feet sticking out. She pulled him out and said, "I found you! You are a good hider!"
+
+Tom smiled and said, "Thank you! You are a good seeker!"
+
+They hugged and decided to play again. This time, Tom was the seeker and Lily was the hider. Lily ran to the swings and hid behind them. She hoped Tom would not find her.
+
+But as she was hiding, she felt something sharp on her leg. She looked down and saw a mark. It was a bee sting. It hurt a lot. She cried out loud.
+
+Tom heard her cry and ran to her. He saw the mark and said, "Oh no! You have a bee sting! It must hurt!"
+
+He took her hand and said, "Come on, let's go to the nurse. She will make it better."
+
+They walked to the nurse's office and told her what happened. The nurse put some cream on the mark and gave Lily a band-aid. She also gave her a lollipop and a sticker.
+
+Lily felt better and said, "Thank you, nurse. You are very nice."
+
+The nurse smiled and said, "You are welcome, Lily. You are very brave."
+
+Tom said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I hope you are not mad at me."
+
+Lily said, "I'm not mad at you, Tom. You are my friend. You helped me."
+
+They hugged and said, "Let's play something else. No more hide and seek."
+
+They went back to the park and played tag instead. They had fun and forgot about the mark.
+Lily and Mom were at home. It was raining outside. Lily liked to watch the rain from the window. She saw the drops fall on the grass and the flowers. She heard the thunder make loud noises.
+
+"Mom, can I go outside and play in the rain?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, Lily, it is not safe to go outside when it is raining. You might get wet and cold, or the thunder might scare you. Why don't you stay inside and play with your toys?" Mom said.
+
+"But I want to go outside and splash in the puddles. It looks fun. Please, Mom, please!" Lily begged.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged Lily. "I know you like to have fun, Lily, but sometimes you have to listen to Mom and do what is best for you. How about we make some coffee and drink it together? It will make us warm and cozy. Do you like coffee, Lily?"
+
+Lily nodded. She liked coffee. It smelled good and tasted sweet. Mom took Lily to the kitchen and made some coffee. She poured some in a small cup for Lily and added some milk and sugar. She gave Lily the cup and took her own.
+
+"Let's sit on the couch and drink our coffee. We can watch the rain from there and talk. Maybe we can read a book or watch a show later. What do you think, Lily?" Mom said.
+
+Lily smiled and followed Mom to the couch. She sipped her coffee and felt warm and happy. She liked to spend time with Mom. She felt safe and loved. She did not mind the rain anymore. She said, "I think that is a good idea, Mom. I love you, Mom."
+
+"I love you too, Lily. You are my sweet girl." Mom said. They hugged and drank their coffee. They watched the rain and talked. They had a nice day at home.
+Tommy did not like to bathe. He thought water was cold and soap was disgusting. He liked to play with dirt and mud and bugs. He did not care if he was dirty or smelly.
+
+One day, his mom said, "Tommy, it is time to bathe. You have to be clean and nice for grandma. She is coming to visit us today. She loves you very much and she has a gift for you."
+
+Tommy said, "No, mom, I do not want to bathe. I want to play more. I do not care about grandma or her gift. I do not love her."
+
+Mom was sad and angry. She said, "Tommy, that is not nice. Grandma has a big heart and she is very kind. She always brings you cookies and toys and books. She wants to see you happy and healthy. How can you say you do not love her?"
+
+Tommy said, "I do not know. I just do not want to bathe. I hate water and soap. They are disgusting."
+
+Mom said, "Tommy, you have to bathe. It is good for you. It makes you fresh and soft and shiny. It also makes you smell good and feel good. You do not want to be dirty and smelly and sick. You do not want to make grandma sad and sick. You want to make her proud and happy. You want to show her you love her."
+
+Tommy thought for a moment. He did not want to make mom or grandma sad or sick. He did not want to be dirty or smelly or sick. He wanted to be fresh and soft and shiny. He wanted to smell good and feel good. He wanted to make mom and grandma proud and happy. He wanted to show them he loved them.
+
+He said, "OK, mom, I will bathe. But can I bring my rubber duck and my boat and my frog? They like to bathe too."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Of course, Tommy, you can bring them. They are your friends. They will make your bath more fun. Come on, let us go to the bathroom. I will help you bathe. Then we will get ready for grandma. She will be here soon. She will be so happy to see you and your friends. She will give you a big hug and a big kiss and a big gift. She will tell you how much she loves you."
+
+Tommy smiled and said, "I love you too, mom. And I love grandma. And I love my rubber duck and my boat and my frog. And I love to bathe. Well, maybe not love, but I do not hate it anymore. It is not so disgusting after all."
+Ben was sick. He had a hot head and a sore throat. Mom put a thermometer in his mouth to see how hot he was. Ben did not like the thermometer. It was hard and cold and made him gag. He wanted to spit it out, but Mom said no.
+
+"Be still, Ben. It will only take a minute. Then we can give you some medicine and a hug," Mom said.
+
+Ben was impatient. He did not want to wait. He wanted to play with his toys and watch his favorite show. He did not want to lie in bed and drink water. He felt angry and bored. He looked at the thermometer in his mouth. He saw a red line inside it. He wondered what it was.
+
+He decided to find out. He bit the thermometer hard and pulled it out of his mouth. He heard a crack. He saw the red line spill out of the thermometer. He saw glass and metal on the floor. He saw Mom's face turn pale.
+
+"Ben! What did you do? You tore the thermometer! That's very dangerous! You could have hurt yourself!" Mom shouted.
+
+Ben felt scared. He did not mean to tear the thermometer. He did not know it was dangerous. He did not know what the red line was. He started to cry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom. I'm sorry. I didn't know. I didn't know," he sobbed.
+
+Mom hugged him and checked his mouth. She did not see any cuts or blood. She was relieved. She threw away the broken thermometer and got a new one. She put it in his ear instead of his mouth.
+
+"It's okay, Ben. I know you didn't know. But you have to be careful with things like thermometers. They can hurt you if you tear them. Do you understand?" she said.
+
+Ben nodded. He felt sorry and ashamed. He did not want to tear anything again. He wanted to be a good boy. He wanted Mom to be happy. He wanted to get well soon. He hugged Mom and said, "I love you, Mom. I'm sorry."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I love you too, Ben. I'm sorry too. I know you're sick and impatient. But you'll feel better soon. I promise." She kissed his forehead and gave him some medicine and a hug. She turned on his favorite show and gave him his toys. She stayed with him until he fell asleep.
+Sam and Mia were playing with their toys in the living room. They had many cars, dolls, blocks and books. They liked to make noise and mess. Mom was in the kitchen, making lunch. She told them to be quiet and tidy.
+
+But Sam and Mia did not listen. They kept throwing their toys around and shouting. They did not care if they broke something or hurt each other. They thought it was fun.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw the toys everywhere and the children laughing. She was angry and sad. She said, "Sam and Mia, stop it right now! You are being very bad and naughty. You are not respecting your toys or me. You need a lecture."
+
+Sam and Mia stopped and looked at Mom. They knew they were in trouble. They did not like lectures. Lectures were when Mom talked a lot and they had to listen and say sorry. They felt scared and sorry.
+
+Mom said, "You have to remove all the toys from the floor and put them back in the box. You have to do it fast and well. If you don't, you will have no toys for the rest of the day. And you will have to sit in the empty corner and think about what you did. Do you understand?"
+
+Sam and Mia nodded and said, "Yes, Mom. We understand. We are sorry, Mom. We will remove the toys and be good." They started to pick up the toys and put them in the box. They hoped Mom would forgive them and hug them. They did not want to sit in the empty corner. They wanted to play nicely and make Mom happy.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and plant and water. They had many flowers and vegetables. They were proud of their garden.
+
+One day, they saw a big orange radish. It was bigger than their hands. They wanted to pick it and eat it. But they did not know who planted it.
+
+"Maybe it is mine," said Ben. "I planted some seeds here."
+
+"No, it is mine," said Lily. "I planted some seeds here too."
+
+They started to argue. They pulled the radish from both sides. They did not want to share.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. They looked up and saw a squirrel. The squirrel had a gun. It was shooting nuts at them.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" shouted Ben.
+
+"Leave us alone!" shouted Lily.
+
+The squirrel did not listen. It kept shooting nuts. It wanted the radish. It thought it was a big nut.
+
+Ben and Lily were scared. They dropped the radish and ran away. The squirrel grabbed the radish and ran away too.
+
+Ben and Lily hid behind a tree. They looked at each other. They felt sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," said Lily. "I should have shared with you."
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," said Ben. "I should have shared with you too."
+
+They hugged and made up. They decided to plant more radishes together. And they hoped the squirrel would not come back.
+Poppy was a little girl who loved to play hide and seek with her friends. She liked to find hidden places where no one could see her. One day, she found a big bush with pink flowers. She crawled inside and smiled. She thought she had the best hiding spot ever.
+
+But soon, she heard a buzzing sound. She looked around and saw a bee. The bee was flying near the flowers. Poppy was scared of bees. She wanted to run away, but she was afraid the bee would sting her. She stayed very still and hoped the bee would go away.
+
+"Poppy, where are you?" she heard her friend Lily call. Lily was the seeker. She was looking for Poppy and the other hiders. Poppy wanted to answer, but she was afraid the bee would hear her. She kept quiet and prayed.
+
+Lily came closer to the bush. She saw the pink flowers and thought they were pretty. She reached out to touch one. But then, she saw the bee. She gasped and pulled back her hand. She was scared of bees too.
+
+"Poppy, is that you?" she asked. She heard a whimper from inside the bush. She realized Poppy was hiding there. She felt sorry for her friend. She knew how it felt to be scared of bees.
+
+"Poppy, don't worry. I'm here to help you. Come out of the bush. The bee won't hurt you if you don't bother it. Trust me." Lily said softly.
+
+Poppy heard Lily's voice. She felt a little better. She trusted Lily. She was her best friend. She crawled out of the bush. She saw Lily's smiling face. She hugged her and thanked her.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are very brave and kind. You are a good friend." Poppy said.
+
+"You're welcome, Poppy. You are a good friend too. I'm glad you're safe." Lily said.
+
+They kissed each other on the cheek. They were happy. They learned that sometimes, the best hiding spots are not the safest ones. And they learned that friends can help each other overcome their fears. They decided to play a different game. They picked some flowers and made a crown. They wore the crown and danced. They had fun. They were good friends.
+Sara was sick. She had a fever and a sore throat. She did not want to eat or play. She only wanted to sleep. Her mom was worried. She called the nurse.
+
+"Hello, nurse. My Sara is sick. She has a fever and a sore throat. What can I do?" Mom asked.
+
+"Hello, mom. I am sorry Sara is sick. You should give her some water and some medicine. You should also check her temperature. If it is very high, you should take her to the doctor. I recommend you do that soon." The nurse said.
+
+"Thank you, nurse. I will do that. Bye." Mom said.
+
+Mom gave Sara some water and some medicine. She checked her temperature. It was very high. She decided to take her to the doctor. She put Sara in the car. She drove to the clinic.
+
+At the clinic, Sara saw many people. Some were sick. Some were not. Some were clean. Some were dirty. Sara did not like the dirty people. They smelled bad. They made her feel worse.
+
+"Mom, I don't like the dirty people. Can we go home?" Sara said.
+
+"No, Sara. We have to wait for the doctor. He will help you feel better. The dirty people are also sick. They need help too. You should be nice to them." Mom said.
+
+Sara nodded. She tried to be nice. She waited for the doctor. She hoped he would help her feel better. She hoped the dirty people would feel better too. She hoped she would not be sick anymore.
+Ben and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw a big tent with many colors. Mom said it was a circus. Ben and Lily wanted to see the circus. Mom bought tickets and they went inside.
+
+Inside the tent, there were many people and animals. Ben and Lily saw horses, elephants, lions, and monkeys. They also saw people who did tricks and made jokes. They were called acrobats and clowns. Ben and Lily liked the clowns. They wore funny clothes and had big shoes and noses. They made Ben and Lily laugh.
+
+One of the clowns had a big red ball. He threw it to another clown. The other clown caught it and threw it back. They did this many times. Then, the clown with the ball saw Ben and Lily. He smiled and winked at them. He threw the ball to Ben. Ben was surprised. He caught the ball and looked at the clown. The clown said, "Throw it back to me, Ben. You are mighty. You can do it."
+
+Ben felt happy. He wanted to throw the ball back to the clown. He held the ball with both hands and swung his arms. He threw the ball as hard as he could. The ball flew in the air. It went very high. It went over the clown's head. It went over the tent. It went out of sight.
+
+Everyone in the tent gasped. They looked at the ball. They looked at Ben. They looked at the clown. The clown looked at Ben. He clapped his hands and said, "Wow, Ben. You are mighty. You can spring the ball very far. You are the best. You are a star."
+
+Ben felt proud. He smiled and bowed. Lily clapped and cheered. Mom hugged and kissed him. The clown gave him a hug and a balloon. Everyone in the tent cheered and clapped. Ben and Lily had a lot of fun at the circus. They liked the clowns. They liked the ball. They liked being mighty.
+Lily and Ben were having lunch with their mom. Mom made soup for them, but Lily did not like soup. She wanted to eat bread and cheese instead. She pushed her bowl away and said, "No soup, mom. Soup is yucky."
+
+Mom was not happy. She said, "Lily, you have to eat your soup. It is good for you. It has carrots and potatoes and chicken. You like those, right?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She said, "No, mom. I only like bread and cheese. Soup is too hot and too wet. I don't want it."
+
+Ben was eating his soup quietly. He liked soup. He thought it was tasty and warm. He looked at Lily and said, "Lily, you are being rude. Mom made soup for us. You should say thank you and try it. Maybe you will like it too."
+
+Lily did not listen to Ben. She said, "No, Ben. You are silly. Soup is bad. Bread and cheese are good. You can have my soup. I will have your bread and cheese."
+
+Ben was angry. He said, "No, Lily. That is not fair. You cannot take my bread and cheese. That is mine. You have your own bread and cheese. You are being greedy and mean."
+
+Lily and Ben started to fight. They grabbed each other's food and pulled and pushed. They spilled soup and bread and cheese on the table and on the floor. They made a big mess.
+
+Mom was very angry. She said, "Stop it, Lily and Ben. You are being naughty and wasteful. You are making a lot of noise and trouble. You have to share and be nice. You have to eat your soup and your bread and cheese. Or you will have no dessert."
+
+Lily and Ben stopped fighting. They looked at mom and at the mess. They felt sorry and ashamed. They said, "Sorry, mom. We were bad. We will eat our soup and our bread and cheese. We will share and be nice. We will not be rude again."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "That's good, Lily and Ben. I'm glad you are sorry. I love you both. Now, eat your lunch and clean up the mess. Then, you can have some cookies and milk for dessert."
+Sara and Tom were playing hide and seek in the big house. Sara was the seeker and Tom was the hider. Tom ran up the stairs and looked for a good spot. He saw a door that said "attic". He opened it and went inside. It was dark and dusty and full of old things. Tom found a big box and crawled inside. He closed the lid and waited for Sara.
+
+Sara counted to ten and then started to look for Tom. She checked the rooms and the closets and the bathroom. She could not find him. She wondered where he was. She heard a noise from upstairs. She followed it and saw the attic door. She opened it and went inside. She was scared of the dark and the dust and the old things. She called out, "Tom, where are you? I give up!"
+
+Tom heard Sara's voice and smiled. He wanted to surprise her. He lifted the lid of the box and jumped out. He shouted, "Boo!" Sara screamed and jumped back. She saw Tom and felt angry. She said, "Tom, that was not nice! You scared me!" Tom said, "Sorry, Sara. I was just playing. Don't be mad." Sara said, "I'm not mad, but I don't like the attic. It's cold and creepy. Let's go downstairs."
+
+Tom agreed and they both left the attic. They closed the door behind them. As they went downstairs, they felt a cold breeze. They shivered and hugged each other. They saw a window that was open. They closed it and locked it. They wondered who opened it. They did not know that it was the wind. They did not know that the attic had a secret. They did not know that in the box, there was a smooth doll that looked like Sara. And the doll was smiling.
+Sara and Tom were friends who liked to play on the shore. They liked to build sand castles, find shells and watch the waves. One day, they saw a big black bird lying on the sand. It looked hurt and sad.
+
+"Look, Tom, a bird!" Sara said. "Maybe we can help it."
+
+Tom was scared of the bird. He thought it might bite or scratch them. He said, "No, Sara, leave it alone. It is a bad bird. It is black and ugly. Let's go play somewhere else."
+
+Sara felt sorry for the bird. She said, "No, Tom, it is not a bad bird. It is just a bird. It needs our help. Maybe we can heal it. Come on, let's try."
+
+Sara and Tom went closer to the bird. The bird did not move. It looked at them with big eyes. Sara gently touched its wing. She saw a cut on it. She said, "Oh, poor bird. You have a boo-boo. Don't worry, we will make it better."
+
+Sara and Tom found some water and a cloth. They cleaned the cut and wrapped the cloth around it. They gave the bird some bread and water. They talked to it and sang to it. The bird started to feel better. It made some noises and moved its wing. It looked happy and grateful.
+
+"See, Tom, the bird is not bad. It is a good bird. It is our friend. We helped it and it likes us. It is not black and ugly. It is black and beautiful. Black is a good color, like the night and the stars." Sara said.
+
+Tom felt ashamed. He said, "You are right, Sara. I was wrong. The bird is not bad. It is a good bird. It is our friend. We helped it and it likes us. It is black and beautiful. Black is a good color, like the night and the stars. I am sorry, bird. Can you forgive me?"
+
+The bird nodded and made a happy noise. It flapped its wing and flew up in the air. It circled around Sara and Tom and then flew away. It left a feather on the sand. Sara and Tom picked it up and smiled. They learned a lesson that day. They learned to be kind and not to judge by the color. They learned that black is a good color, like the night and the stars.
+Tim and Lily were bored. They had played with all their toys and read all their books. They wanted to do something new and fun.
+
+"Let's watch a movie!" Lily said. She liked movies with princesses and animals.
+
+"OK, but I want to pick the movie," Tim said. He liked movies with cars and robots.
+
+They went to the living room and looked at the movies on the shelf. There were many movies, but they could not agree on which one to watch.
+
+"What about this one?" Lily said, holding a blue movie. "It has a mermaid and a fish and a crab. They sing and swim and have adventures."
+
+"No, that's a girl movie. It's too silly," Tim said. He examined the blue movie and put it back. "I want to watch this one." He took a red movie. "It has a superhero and a villain and a rocket. They fight and fly and save the world."
+
+"No, that's a boy movie. It's too scary," Lily said. She examined the red movie and put it back. "We need to find a movie that we both like."
+
+They looked at the movies again, but they could not find one that they both liked. They started to argue and whine.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" Mom said, coming into the living room. She heard them from the kitchen. "Why are you making so much noise?"
+
+"We want to watch a movie, but we can't agree on which one," Tim said.
+
+"Yeah, he likes boy movies and I like girl movies," Lily said.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. "You know, you don't have to watch only boy movies or girl movies. There are many movies that are for everyone. Movies that have stories and characters and messages that you can both enjoy and learn from."
+
+"Really?" Tim and Lily said.
+
+"Really. Here, let me show you." Mom took a green movie from the shelf. "This is one of my favorite movies. It has a boy and a girl and a dog and a balloon. They go on a journey and meet new friends and face challenges. It's funny and sad and beautiful. Do you want to watch it with me?"
+
+Tim and Lily looked at the green movie. They examined the cover and saw the boy and the girl and the dog and the balloon. They nodded and smiled.
+
+"OK, Mom. We want to watch it with you," they said.
+
+Mom put the green movie in the player and turned on the TV. She sat on the couch and Tim and Lily snuggled with her. They watched the movie and laughed and cried and wondered. They forgot about the blue movie and the red movie. They were happy with the green movie.
+Anna and Ben are playing with their toy rockets. They want to make them fly high in the sky. They need fuel for their rockets. They look around the room for something to use.
+
+"Look, Ben, I have juice!" Anna says. She holds a bottle of orange juice. "Juice is sweet and good. Maybe it can be fuel for our rockets."
+
+"Good idea, Anna!" Ben says. He has a bottle of milk. "Milk is also sweet and good. Let's use both juice and milk for our rockets."
+
+They pour some juice and some milk into their rockets. They shake them well. They go to the window and open it. They hold their rockets and count to three.
+
+"One, two, three, jump!" They say together. They jump and throw their rockets out of the window.
+
+They watch their rockets fly in the air. They see juice and milk spilling out of them. They see their rockets fall down and land on the grass.
+
+"Oh no, our rockets did not fly very high!" Anna says. She feels sad.
+
+"Maybe juice and milk are not good fuel for rockets." Ben says. He feels sad too.
+
+They go outside and pick up their rockets. They are wet and sticky. They see a cat licking the juice and milk from the grass. The cat looks happy.
+
+"Look, Anna, the cat likes our fuel!" Ben says. He smiles.
+
+"Maybe our fuel is not good for rockets, but it is good for cats." Anna says. She smiles too.
+
+They laugh and pet the cat. They decide to play with the cat instead of their rockets. They think the cat is sweet and good.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with dolls and cars. One day, Anna sees a new sock on Ben's bed. It is pink and has flowers. Anna thinks it is very attractive. She wants to have it for her doll.
+
+She takes the sock and puts it in her bag. Ben does not see her. He looks for his sock, but he cannot find it. He is sad. He likes his sock very much. He asks Anna if she has seen it, but she says no. She feels bad, but she does not want to give back the sock.
+
+The next day, Anna and Ben go to the park. They see a girl with a pink sock on her hand. She is playing with a puppet. Anna recognizes the sock. It is Ben's sock. She feels very sorry. She takes out the sock from her bag and runs to the girl.
+
+"Excuse me, this is my friend's sock. I took it by mistake. Can I have it back, please?" she says.
+
+The girl is surprised. She looks at the sock and then at Anna. She nods and gives her the sock. She says, "It's okay. I have another one. You can keep it if you want."
+
+Anna shakes her head. She says, "No, thank you. It is very attractive, but it is not mine. I should not have taken it. I am sorry."
+
+She goes back to Ben and gives him the sock. She says, "Ben, I am sorry. I took your sock yesterday. I thought it was very attractive and I wanted it for my doll. But it was wrong. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Ben looks at Anna and then at his sock. He smiles and hugs her. He says, "Anna, I forgive you. You are my friend. I am happy you gave me back my sock. It is very attractive, but you are more attractive to me."
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a microscope in their dad's study. They wanted to see what it could do.
+
+"Let me look first," Ben said. He was stubborn and always wanted to be first.
+
+"No, me first," Lily said. She was stubborn too and did not like to share.
+
+They both grabbed the microscope and pulled hard. The microscope fell on the floor and broke.
+
+"Oh no, dad will be angry," Ben said. He was scared of his dad's anger.
+
+"Let's hide it," Lily said. She was scared too.
+
+They hid the microscope under the sofa and ran to their room. They hoped dad would not find out.
+
+But dad did find out. He saw the broken microscope and the sofa cushion. He was very sad and angry.
+
+"Who did this?" he asked Ben and Lily.
+
+They both looked down and did not say anything.
+
+Dad knew they were lying. He was disappointed in them.
+
+"Why did you break my microscope and hide it?" he asked. "Why did you not tell me the truth?"
+
+Ben and Lily felt sorry. They knew they did wrong.
+
+"We were playing and we wanted to look," Ben said.
+
+"We were stubborn and we pulled," Lily said.
+
+"We were scared and we hid," they both said.
+
+Dad sighed. He hugged them and said, "I understand you were curious and wanted to have fun. But you should not be stubborn and fight over things. You should share and take turns. And you should not be scared and lie. You should be brave and honest. That is how you show respect and love."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They learned their lesson.
+
+They said sorry to dad and helped him clean up the mess.
+
+They promised to be more careful and truthful next time.
+Sara and Tom were playing in the field. They liked to run and jump in the wheat. The wheat was tall and yellow and soft. The sun was bright and warm.
+
+"Look, Sara, I can see a bird!" Tom said, pointing to the sky. "It is blue and white and fast. Can you see it?"
+
+Sara looked up and saw the bird. It was flying high and low, making noises. "Yes, I can see it, Tom. It is pretty. Do you think it will come to us?"
+
+Tom nodded. He wanted to touch the bird. He ran after it, waving his arms. "Come here, bird, come here! I want to be your friend!"
+
+Sara followed him, laughing. They ran and ran, across the field, to the edge of the hill. They did not see the big rock that was in their way.
+
+Tom tripped on the rock and fell. He fell down the hill, rolling and tumbling. He screamed and cried. He hurt his head and his arm and his leg.
+
+Sara stopped and gasped. She saw Tom fall. She was scared and sad. She wanted to help him. She ran to the rock and looked down the hill.
+
+But she did not see Tom. She only saw wheat and dirt and blood. The bird was gone. The sun was not bright anymore. It was dark and cold. Sara was alone.
+Lily wanted to buy a new doll. She saw it in the shop window and it had a pretty dress and long hair. She hoped her mom would give her some money to buy it.
+
+She asked her mom, "Mom, can I have some money for the doll?"
+
+Her mom said, "No, Lily, we don't have enough money for that. We have to save for other things. Maybe you can get it for your birthday."
+
+Lily was sad. She really wanted the doll. She thought of a plan. She waited until her mom was busy and then she took her purse. She hoped her mom would not notice.
+
+She ran to the shop and looked inside the purse. She hoped there was enough money for the doll. But the purse was empty. There was no money at all. Lily felt bad. She had taken her mom's purse for nothing. She wondered what her mom would say.
+
+She went back home and put the purse where she found it. She hoped her mom would not be angry. But her mom was angry. She saw Lily and said, "Lily, did you take my purse?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to buy the doll. But the purse was empty."
+
+Her mom said, "Lily, that was very wrong. You should not take things that are not yours. And you should not lie to me. The purse was not empty. There was a surprise for you inside. It was a ticket for the zoo. I wanted to take you there tomorrow. But now you have lost it."
+
+Lily cried. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I didn't know. I was silly. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Her mom hugged her. She said, "I forgive you, Lily. But you have to learn from your mistake. You have to be honest and grateful for what you have. And you have to hope for the right things. The doll is not as important as spending time with your family. Maybe we can still go to the zoo another day. But you have to promise me you will never take my purse again."
+
+Lily promised. She said, "I promise, mom. I love you. And I hope you still love me."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you, too, Lily. And I always will."
+Ben and Lily were twins who loved chocolate. They always asked their mom for chocolate after dinner. One day, mom said she had a surprise for them. She gave them each a big brown bar of chocolate. Ben and Lily were very happy and thanked mom.
+
+They ran to their room and opened their chocolate bars. But when they took a bite, they made a face. The chocolate was not sweet. It was bitter and spicy. It had red and black dots in it. It was disgusting!
+
+"Yuck! This is not chocolate!" Ben said. He spit out the bite and threw the bar on the floor.
+
+"Me too! This is icky!" Lily said. She did the same and started to cry.
+
+Mom heard them and came to their room. She saw the chocolate bars on the floor and smiled. She picked them up and said, "These are not chocolate bars. These are chili pepper bars. I tricked you!"
+
+Ben and Lily looked at mom and felt angry and sad. They did not like mom's trick. They trembled and said, "That's not funny, mom! That's mean!"
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I'm sorry, my loves. I was just joking. I have real chocolate for you. Here, take these. They are sweet and yummy."
+
+She gave them each a small square of chocolate. Ben and Lily tasted them and smiled. The chocolate was good. They forgave mom and said, "Thank you, mom. We love you."
+
+Mom said, "I love you too, my sweeties. But remember, too much chocolate is not good for you. You have to eat other things too, like fruits and vegetables."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and said, "OK, mom. We will eat other things too. But can we have one more chocolate, please?"
+
+Mom laughed and said, "OK, just one more. But then you have to brush your teeth and go to bed."
+
+Ben and Lily agreed and ate their last chocolate. They brushed their teeth and went to bed. They dreamed of chocolate and mom. They were happy.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to look at the plants and smell the flowers. Lila saw a plant with red and yellow petals. She thought it was pretty. She picked one of the petals and threw it in the air.
+
+"Look, Ben, it's like a butterfly!" she said.
+
+Ben looked at the petal and smiled. He picked another one and threw it too. The petals flew in the wind and made a colorful swirl.
+
+"Wow, it's like a rainbow!" he said.
+
+They threw more petals and laughed. They had fun.
+
+But then, they heard a voice. It was Mom. She sounded angry.
+
+"Lila and Ben, what are you doing? You are ruining the plant! That's not nice!"
+
+Lila and Ben stopped throwing petals. They felt bad. They did not know they were hurting the plant. They looked at Mom and said sorry.
+
+Mom came closer and saw the plant. It was a rose bush. It had many thorns and few petals left. She sighed.
+
+"It's okay, kids. I know you didn't mean to harm the plant. But you have to be more thoughtful. Plants are living things too. They need water and sun and care. They don't like to be picked or thrown. They like to grow and bloom. Do you understand?"
+
+Lila and Ben nodded. They understood. They wanted to be kind to the plants. They asked Mom how they could help.
+
+Mom smiled. She gave them a watering can and a pair of gloves. She showed them how to water the plant and remove the thorns. She told them the plant would grow new petals soon. She thanked them for being helpful.
+
+Lila and Ben felt happy. They learned something new. They hugged Mom and the plant. They said they loved them both.
+Sara and Ben are playing with blocks. They want to build a big tower, like the ancient ones they saw in a book. Sara puts a block on top of another block. Ben does the same. They work hard with their brains and hands.
+
+But then, Tom comes along. He is older and bigger than Sara and Ben. He does not like blocks. He likes cars and balls. He sees the tower and laughs. "That is a silly tower. It is too small and weak. Watch this!" He kicks the tower and it falls down. Sara and Ben are sad and angry. Their blocks are everywhere.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Sara shouts at Tom. "You are mean and rude. You broke our tower. We worked hard on it. Go away!"
+
+Tom does not listen. He grabs a ball and throws it at Sara. It hits her in the head. She cries. Ben runs to help her. He picks up a block and throws it at Tom. It hits him in the leg. He cries too.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom says. "That hurts. Why did you do that?"
+
+"Because you hurt Sara. And you hurt our tower. You are a bully. You need to say sorry." Ben says.
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He feels bad. He knows he was wrong. He uses his brain and his heart. He says sorry to Sara and Ben. He helps them pick up the blocks. He asks if he can play with them. They say yes. They work together to build a new tower. A bigger and stronger one. They are happy and friendly. They have fun.
+Tom loved aeroplanes. He had many toys of aeroplanes, and he liked to make them fly in the air. He wanted to be a pilot when he grew up, and fly real aeroplanes.
+
+One day, he saw a poster of a big aeroplane show. It said that there would be many aeroplanes flying in the sky, and doing tricks and stunts. Tom was very excited. He asked his mum if they could go to the show.
+
+"Sorry, Tom, we can't go to the show. It is too far away, and we don't have enough money for the tickets. Maybe another time," his mum said.
+
+Tom was very sad. He wanted to see the aeroplanes so much. He went to his room and played with his toys, but he felt lonely and bored.
+
+The next day, his mum had a surprise for him. She had found a way to get tickets for the show. She had done some extra work, and had asked a friend to drive them there. She had also made a lovely picnic for them to enjoy.
+
+"Tom, guess what? We are going to the aeroplane show today! I know how much you love aeroplanes, and I wanted to make you happy. Are you ready to go?" his mum said.
+
+Tom was overjoyed. He hugged his mum and thanked her. He packed his toys and his hat, and ran to the car. He could not wait to see the show.
+
+They arrived at the show, and found a good spot to watch. There were many people and many aeroplanes. Tom saw all kinds of aeroplanes, big and small, fast and slow, old and new. He saw them fly high and low, twist and turn, loop and roll. He clapped and cheered, and pointed at his favourites.
+
+He also saw a special aeroplane. It was red and white, and had a big number on its wing. It was the same as his favourite toy aeroplane. He had always dreamed of flying it. He watched it closely, and admired its skill and speed.
+
+The show was almost over, when the announcer said something that made Tom's eyes widen.
+
+"And now, for the grand finale, we have a special guest. He is a young pilot, who has just succeeded in his first solo flight. He is here to show us his talent and passion. Please welcome, Tom!"
+
+Tom could not believe it. He looked at his mum, who smiled and nodded. She had arranged this for him. She had talked to the pilot of the red and white aeroplane, who was a friend of her friend. He had agreed to let Tom fly with him, and to let him take the controls for a few minutes.
+
+Tom felt a rush of joy and fear. He wanted to fly, but he was also scared. He had never flown a real aeroplane before. He wondered if he could do it.
+
+He followed his mum to the runway, where the pilot was waiting for him. He was a kind and friendly man, who greeted him warmly.
+
+"Hello, Tom. I'm Dave. I heard you love aeroplanes, and you want to be a pilot. Well, today is your lucky day. You are going to fly with me, and show everyone what you can do. Are you ready?" he said.
+
+Tom nodded, and climbed into the cockpit. He put on his helmet and his seatbelt. He looked at the instruments and the buttons. He felt nervous and excited.
+
+Dave started the engine, and taxied to the runway. He talked to Tom through the radio, and explained what he was doing. He told him to relax and have fun.
+
+They took off, and soared into the sky. Tom felt the wind and the sun on his face. He felt the power and the freedom of the aeroplane. He smiled and laughed.
+
+Dave flew around the show area, and did some tricks and stunts. He asked Tom if he liked them, and Tom said yes. He asked him if he wanted to try them, and Tom said yes.
+
+Dave gave him the controls, and told him what to do. He said he would help him if he needed. He said he trusted him.
+
+Tom held the controls, and felt the aeroplane respond to his touch. He followed Dave's instructions, and did some simple manoeuvres. He turned left and right, he climbed and descended, he levelled and banked. He felt a surge of confidence and joy.
+
+He decided to do something more daring. He decided to do a loop. He pulled the stick back, and felt the aeroplane rise and flip. He saw the ground and the sky switch places. He heard Dave cheer and clap. He completed the loop, and felt a burst of pride and happiness.
+
+He had done it
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, because their dad was rich and worked in a big city. Sometimes, he would fly in an aeroplane to see them and bring them new toys.
+
+One day, dad came home with a big surprise. He had a toy aeroplane for Ben and a toy doll for Lily. The twins were very happy and hugged their dad. They wanted to play with their new toys right away.
+
+"Can we go outside and fly the aeroplane, dad?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, son. But be careful, it's windy today. Don't let the aeroplane fly too far or too high," dad said.
+
+"OK, dad. Come on, Lily. Let's go outside and play," Ben said.
+
+Lily followed her brother, but she was not very interested in the aeroplane. She liked her doll more. She named her doll Anna and pretended she was her friend. She talked to her doll and dressed her up.
+
+Ben and Lily played outside for a long time. Ben had fun flying the aeroplane, but he did not listen to his dad. He wanted to see how far and how high the aeroplane could go. He pushed the button harder and harder, and the aeroplane flew faster and faster.
+
+"Wow, look at that, Lily. The aeroplane is so high. It's like a real one," Ben said.
+
+Lily looked up and saw the aeroplane. It was very small and far away. She was worried.
+
+"Ben, I think you should bring the aeroplane back. It's too high. What if you lose it?" Lily said.
+
+Ben did not want to bring the aeroplane back. He wanted to keep flying it. He thought it was fun.
+
+"No, Lily. It's fine. The aeroplane will stay with me. I can control it. Watch this," Ben said.
+
+He pushed the button again, and the aeroplane did a loop in the air. Ben laughed. He thought he was clever.
+
+But then, something bad happened. The aeroplane did not come back. It kept flying higher and higher, until Ben could not see it anymore. It was gone.
+
+"Ben, where is the aeroplane?" Lily asked.
+
+Ben looked at the sky. He could not find the aeroplane. He felt sad and scared. He had lost his new toy.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. I don't know. The aeroplane did not stay with me. It flew away," Ben said.
+
+He started to cry. Lily felt sorry for him. She hugged him and gave him her doll.
+
+"It's OK, Ben. Don't cry. You still have me and Anna. We will stay with you. Maybe dad can find the aeroplane later," Lily said.
+
+Ben hugged Lily and Anna. He was glad he had a sister and a friend. He wished he had listened to his dad. He learned a lesson. He decided to be more careful with his toys next time.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the sand. They have buckets and shovels. They want to build a big castle.
+
+"Look, I made a tower!" Lily says. She puts a shell on top. "It is pretty."
+
+"Wow, good job!" Ben says. He makes a wall. "We need more sand."
+
+They dig and dig. They make the castle bigger and bigger. They are happy.
+
+But then they see the water. The water is gray and fast. It comes closer and closer to the castle.
+
+"Oh no, the water will break our castle!" Lily says. She is scared.
+
+"Quick, let's move it!" Ben says. He grabs his bucket. "We can build it again over there."
+
+They run and run. They find a new spot. They start to build again.
+
+They are brave. They are friends. They have fun.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play outside in the park. They see a big hole in the ground. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Let's go and look," Tom says. He is independent and brave.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Mia says. She is independent too, but more careful.
+
+They walk to the hole and look down. They see something shiny and round. It is a ball. They want to get the ball.
+
+"I can reach it," Tom says. He leans over the hole and stretches his arm. He tries to grab the ball.
+
+But he slips and falls into the hole. He lands on the ball. It makes a loud noise. BANG!
+
+Mia hears the noise and looks into the hole. She sees Tom on the ball. He is not hurt, but he is dirty and surprised.
+
+She laughs. She thinks it is funny. She says, "Are you OK, Tom?"
+
+Tom laughs too. He is not angry, but he is embarrassed. He says, "Yes, I'm OK, Mia. But I need some help. Can you pull me out?"
+
+Mia nods. She is kind and helpful. She finds a stick and gives it to Tom. He holds the stick and she pulls him out. He comes out of the hole with the ball.
+
+They hug and smile. They are happy. They have a new ball to play with. They are still independent, but they also need each other. They are good friends.
+Tom and Lily were big kids. They liked to drive with Mom and Dad in the car. One day, they went to the beach. They saw the water and the sand. They saw people with surf boards.
+
+"Can we surf, Mom?" Tom asked.
+
+"Surfing is hard, Tom. You need to learn how to swim and balance first," Mom said.
+
+"But it looks fun, Mom. Please, can we try?" Lily said.
+
+Mom smiled. "Okay, kids. We can rent a surf board and try. But you have to listen to me and stay close."
+
+Tom and Lily were happy. They ran to the water with Mom. Dad stayed on the sand with the towels and the snacks. Mom helped Tom and Lily get on the surf board. She pushed them gently on the waves.
+
+"Wow, this is cool!" Tom said.
+
+"I like it, too!" Lily said.
+
+They surfed for a while. They felt the wind and the sun. They laughed and splashed. They had fun.
+
+After surfing, they were hungry and thirsty. They went back to the sand. Dad gave them sandwiches and juice.
+
+"Thank you, Dad," Tom and Lily said.
+
+They ate their sandwiches. They were good. They drank their juice. It was sour.
+
+"Yuck, this juice is sour!" Tom said.
+
+"I don't like it, either!" Lily said.
+
+They made faces and spit out the juice.
+
+"Sorry, kids. I think the juice went bad in the sun," Dad said.
+
+He threw away the juice. He gave them water instead.
+
+"Water is better," Tom said.
+
+"Yes, water is good," Lily said.
+
+They drank their water. They felt better.
+
+They hugged Mom and Dad.
+
+"We love you, Mom and Dad," Tom and Lily said.
+
+"We love you, too, kids," Mom and Dad said.
+
+They had a good day at the beach. They learned how to surf. They tried sour juice. They drank water. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily are brother and sister. They like to play together, but sometimes they fight. One day, they want to watch a video on the TV. But they have only one video, and it is Tom's favorite. It is about big trucks and cars.
+
+Tom says, "I want to watch my video. It is mine. You can watch something else."
+
+Lily says, "No, I want to watch your video too. It looks fun. You can share with me."
+
+Tom says, "No, you can't. You are a baby. You don't like big trucks and cars. You like dolls and flowers."
+
+Lily says, "I am not a baby. I like big trucks and cars too. And I don't like dolls and flowers. They are boring."
+
+Tom and Lily start to yell and push each other. Mom hears them and comes to the living room. She says, "Stop fighting, you two. You have to take turns and be nice to each other. Or you can't watch any video at all."
+
+Tom and Lily don't want to listen to Mom. They want to watch the video now. They have an idea. They decide to hide the video from Mom. They run to their room and put the video under the bed. They think Mom will not find it there.
+
+But Mom is smart. She knows what they are doing. She follows them to their room and looks under the bed. She sees the video and takes it out. She says, "I found your video. You can't hide it from me. You are being naughty and selfish. You have to learn to share and cooperate. Now you can't watch the video today. You have to play something else."
+
+Tom and Lily are sad and angry. They cry and say, "No, no, no. We want to watch the video. Please, please, please."
+
+Mom says, "No, no, no. You have to wait until tomorrow. And you have to say sorry to each other. And you have to give me a hug and a kiss."
+
+Tom and Lily don't want to do that. But they know Mom is right. They say sorry to each other. They give Mom a hug and a kiss. They play something else. They hope tomorrow they can watch the video together. And maybe they can have fun with the big trucks and cars.
+Anna and Ben liked to play near the big rail that went across the field. They would watch the trains go by and wave at the people inside. Sometimes they would put coins on the rail and see how the trains would make them flat and shiny.
+
+One day, they saw a new train that was very long and loud. It had many cars with different colors and shapes. Anna and Ben wanted to see it up close, so they ran towards the rail. But they did not see the sign that said "Danger! Do not cross!"
+
+The train was coming very fast and made a loud horn sound. Anna and Ben heard it and stopped. They were fearful. They looked at each other and then at the rail. They were too close to go back. They had to cross.
+
+They held hands and ran as fast as they could. The train was getting closer and closer. They could feel the ground shake under their feet. They reached the other side of the rail and jumped. They fell on the grass and rolled away.
+
+They were safe, but they were scared. They hugged each other and cried. They learned a lesson that day. They never played near the rail again. They only watched the trains from far away.
+Sara and Ben were happy to play with their new toys. Sara had a doll and Ben had a car. They made noises and stories with their toys. They did not want to stop playing.
+
+But then, their mom called them. "Sara, Ben, it is time for lunch. Come to the kitchen, please." She had made soup and bread for them. She poured the soup into two bowls and put them on the table. She also put a jug of milk next to the bowls.
+
+Sara and Ben ran to the kitchen. They were hungry and the soup smelled good. They sat on their chairs and picked up their spoons. But before they could eat, their mom said, "Wait a minute. You have to wash your hands first. Go to the bathroom and use the soap."
+
+Sara and Ben did not want to wash their hands. They wanted to eat their soup. They thought it would get cold. They said, "But mom, we are not dirty. We just played with our toys."
+
+Their mom said, "No, you have to wash your hands. It is good for you. It keeps you healthy and clean. Go now, or I will shut the jug and you will not get any milk."
+
+Sara and Ben did not like that. They loved milk. They did not want to miss it. They got off their chairs and went to the bathroom. They washed their hands with the soap and water. They dried them with the towel. Then they came back to the kitchen.
+
+Their mom smiled and said, "Good job. Now you can eat your soup and drink your milk. Enjoy your lunch." She opened the jug and poured some milk into their cups.
+
+Sara and Ben were happy again. They ate their soup and drank their milk. They thanked their mom and gave her a hug. They learned that washing their hands was not so bad. It was worth it for the milk. They decided to wash their hands more often.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. But they did not like the big boys who came sometimes. The big boys were mean and loud and took their toys.
+
+One day, the big boys came and saw Lily's doll. They wanted to take it and make fun of it. Lily was scared and said, "No, that is my doll. Go away!"
+
+But the big boys did not listen. They grabbed the doll and ran. Ben saw what happened and got angry. He ran after them and shouted, "Give it back! That is Lily's doll!"
+
+The big boys laughed and threw the doll in the air. Ben tried to catch it, but he was too small. He fell and hurt his knee. He cried and felt sad.
+
+Then, something unknown happened. The doll started to glow and rise in the air. It flew towards the big boys and hit them on the head. The big boys were surprised and scared. They dropped the doll and ran away.
+
+The doll flew back to Lily and Ben. They hugged it and thanked it. They did not know how the doll did that, but they were happy. They decided to call the doll Magic and never let it go. They went back to play and had fun. They did not have to fight with the big boys anymore.
+Ben and Lily love to play ball in the park. They have a big ball that is red and blue. They take turns to throw and catch the ball. Sometimes they throw the ball very high and far. They call this a pitch.
+
+One day, they see a big dog in the park. The dog is black and brown and has a loud bark. The dog runs towards them and wants to play with the ball. Ben and Lily are scared of the dog. They think the dog will bite them or take their ball.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Ben shouts. "This is our ball!"
+
+But the dog does not listen. The dog jumps and tries to grab the ball. Ben and Lily run away and hide behind a tree. They hug each other and cry.
+
+"Who will bring our ball back?" Lily asks. "The dog is too big and mean."
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He wants to be brave and help his sister. He sees a stick on the ground. He picks up the stick and holds it in his hand.
+
+"I will bring our ball back," Ben says. "You stay here and watch me."
+
+Ben walks slowly towards the dog. He holds the stick in front of him. He hopes the dog will be afraid of the stick. He sees the ball on the grass. The dog is sitting next to the ball and licking it.
+
+"Hey, dog!" Ben says. "This is my pitch. Give me back my ball!"
+
+The dog looks at Ben and growls. The dog shows his teeth and barks. Ben feels scared, but he does not run away. He waves the stick and says again:
+
+"This is my pitch. Give me back my ball!"
+
+The dog sees the stick and thinks it is a toy. The dog likes toys. The dog drops the ball and runs towards the stick. Ben quickly grabs the ball and runs back to the tree. He gives the ball to Lily and hugs her.
+
+"Wow, Ben!" Lily says. "You are so brave! You brought our ball back!"
+
+Ben smiles and says:
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are brave too. You watched me and did not cry."
+
+They are happy and proud. They play with the ball again. The dog plays with the stick. They are all friends.
+Tom and Ben were brothers. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big black car in the park. They were curious. They wanted to see the car.
+
+They wandered to the car. They saw a man in the car. He was sleeping. He had a gun in his hand. Tom and Ben did not know what a gun was. They thought it was a toy.
+
+"Look, Ben, a toy!" Tom said. He reached for the gun.
+
+"No, Tom, don't touch it!" Ben said. He was scared. He heard that guns were bad.
+
+But Tom did not listen. He grabbed the gun. He pulled the trigger. Bang!
+
+The man woke up. He was angry. He saw Tom and Ben. He saw the gun. He saw the blood. He shouted.
+
+"Hey, you little brats! What did you do? You shot me! You shot me!"
+
+He grabbed his gun. He pointed it at Tom and Ben. He pulled the trigger. Bang! Bang!
+
+Tom and Ben fell down. They did not move. They did not play. They did not breathe. They were dead.
+Jill and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They liked to swing, slide and run. They also liked to hug each other when they were happy or sad.
+
+One day, they saw a big red car in the park. It looked shiny and new. They wanted to see it up close. They ran to the car and opened the door. They climbed inside and pretended to drive. They pushed the buttons and turned the wheel. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But they did not know that the car belonged to a mean man. He was angry when he saw them in his car. He ran to the car and slammed the door. He locked them inside. He shouted at them and said he would call the police. He said they were bad and naughty.
+
+Jill and Ben were scared. They cried and screamed. They tried to open the door, but it was locked. They felt dizzy and hot. They wished they had not gone to the car. They wished they had stayed in the park. They wished they had listened to their moms and dads.
+
+Then they heard a siren. It was a police car. The police came and saw the mean man and the locked car. They asked him what he was doing. He lied and said the car was his and the kids were his. But the police did not believe him. They saw the kids were scared and sad. They saw the car was not his. They saw the car was stolen.
+
+The police opened the door and let the kids out. They gave them water and hugs. They asked them if they were okay. They said they were sorry for what happened. They said they would take the mean man to jail. They said he was bad and naughty.
+
+Jill and Ben were happy. They thanked the police and hugged them. They learned a lesson. They learned not to go to strangers' cars. They learned to be careful and safe. They learned to be good and nice. They went back to the park and hugged each other. They were best friends.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with their toys in the garden. One day, they find a long rope. They think of a game.
+
+"Let's tie the rope to the tree and swing!" Tom says.
+
+"OK, that sounds fun!" Lily says.
+
+They tie the rope to a big branch. They take turns to swing on the rope. They laugh and shout.
+
+But then, Tom swings too high. He feels his stomach go up and down. He feels sick.
+
+"Stop, stop, I want to get off!" Tom says.
+
+Lily stops the rope. She helps Tom get off.
+
+"Are you OK, Tom?" Lily asks.
+
+Tom holds his stomach. He looks pale.
+
+"I don't feel good. The rope made me dizzy," Tom says.
+
+Lily gives him a hug.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom. Maybe we should play something else," Lily says.
+
+Tom nods. He smiles a little.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend," Tom says.
+
+They go to the sandbox and make a castle. They forget about the rope. They are happy again.
+Lily and Ben like to play basketball. They have a regular ball that is orange and round. They bounce it and throw it in the hoop. Sometimes they miss, but they laugh and try again.
+
+One day, they see a big ball in the park. It is not regular. It is green and spiky. It looks like a cactus. Lily and Ben are curious. They go near the ball and touch it.
+
+"Ouch!" Lily says. "It hurts!"
+
+"Let's bounce it!" Ben says. He picks up the ball and throws it on the ground. The ball makes a loud noise and pops. Air comes out of the ball and it flies away.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They scream and run away. They think the ball is angry and wants to hurt them.
+
+"Help! Help!" they shout.
+
+A man hears them and comes to see. He sees the ball and smiles. He is not scared. He knows the ball is not real. It is a joke.
+
+"Hey, kids, don't be scared. It's just a prank ball. Someone left it here to scare people. It's not a real basketball. It's a toy. See?" he says. He shows them the ball. It is flat and soft now.
+
+Lily and Ben stop running. They look at the ball and the man. They feel silly. They are not scared anymore. They laugh.
+
+"Sorry, mister. We thought it was a real ball. It looked like a cactus. It was not regular," Lily says.
+
+"That's okay, kids. It was a good joke. But be careful next time. Some balls are not for playing. They are for scaring. Do you want to play with my regular ball? It is orange and round. It is a real basketball," the man says.
+
+"Yes, please!" Lily and Ben say. They take the regular ball and thank the man. They go back to the hoop and play. They bounce it and throw it in the hoop. Sometimes they miss, but they laugh and try again. They have fun. They are not scared. They are happy.
+Lily was very sleepy. She had played a lot with her toys and her friends. She had eaten a big dinner with her family. She had brushed her teeth and put on her pajamas. Now she was lying in her bed, ready to sleep.
+
+But she could not sleep. She was thinking about tomorrow. Tomorrow was her birthday. She wondered what kind of present she would get. She hoped it would be something fun and pretty. She wished she could see it now.
+
+She got out of her bed and tiptoed to the living room. She saw a big box with a bow on the table. She thought it was her present. She wanted to open it and see what was inside. She reached for the box.
+
+But then she heard a voice. It was her mom. She said, "Lily, what are you doing? It's past your bedtime. You have to wait until tomorrow to open your present."
+
+Lily felt sorry. She knew she had been naughty. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was just wondering what my present was. I'm very excited for my birthday."
+
+Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said, "I know, sweetie. But you have to be patient. Your present is very special and I'm sure you'll love it. But you need to sleep now, so you can have a happy birthday tomorrow. Come on, let's go back to your bed."
+
+Lily nodded and followed her mom. She gave her a kiss and said, "Good night, mom. I love you."
+
+Her mom said, "Good night, Lily. I love you too."
+
+Lily went back to her bed and snuggled under her blanket. She closed her eyes and dreamed of her present. She was still wondering what it was, but she was also very sleepy. She fell asleep with a smile on her face.
+Ben and Mia were brother and sister. They liked to play outside in the sun. One day, they saw a big river near their house. They were curious about the river. They wanted to see what was in it.
+
+"Let's go to the river, Ben!" Mia said. "Maybe we can find some fish or stones or sticks."
+
+"OK, Mia. But we have to be careful. The river is deep and fast. Mom and Dad said we should not go near it." Ben said.
+
+They walked to the river. They saw some ducks and frogs and flowers. They were happy. They picked some flowers and threw some stones. They did not see the sign that said "Danger. Do not swim here."
+
+Mia saw something shiny in the water. She wanted to get it. She did not listen to Ben. She ran to the edge of the river. She reached out her hand. She slipped and fell into the water.
+
+"Help! Help!" Mia cried. "Ben, help me!"
+
+Ben was scared. He ran to the river. He tried to grab Mia's hand. But the water was too strong. It pulled Mia away. Ben could not save her.
+
+"Mom! Dad! Help!" Ben shouted. But no one heard him. He was alone. He was sad. He sat on the ground and cried. He sighed. He wished he and Mia had not gone to the river. He wished he could see his sister again.

+
+"OK!" said Tom. "I will make the oven with this big box. You can make the table with these sticks and stones."
+
+They worked hard and soon they had a huge kitchen. It was bigger than their real kitchen inside the house. They were very proud of their work.
+
+"Look at our kitchen!" said Tom. "It is so huge and nice. We can cook anything we want."
+
+"Yes, we can!" said Lily. "Let's make some soup with these leaves and water. And some cake with this mud and grass."
+
+They filled some pots and pans with their ingredients and put them on the oven. They pretended to stir and bake and taste.

+
+Lena and Ben are sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We love each other, but we both want the car." Mom says, "I have an idea. Why don't you take turns with the car? You can use a timer to see how long each of you can play with it. Then you can switch and play with something else. That way, you can both have fun and be fair."
+
+Lena and Ben think that is a good idea. They hug and say, "Thank you, Mom. We will try to be more patient and share." Mom smiles and says, "You're welcome. I'm proud of you for being good twins. Now, let's go and play. But please, be quiet. Dad is sleeping. He had a long day at work and he needs to rest. Don't be loud and wake him up."
+
+Lena and Ben nod and say, "Okay, Mom. We will be quiet and play nicely." They go to their room and set the timer. They take turns with the car and play with other toys.

+Lily liked to examine things. She liked to look at them very closely and see what they were made of. She liked to touch them and smell them and sometimes taste them. She liked to learn new things every day.
+
+One day, she found a stack of books in her room. They were big and colorful and had many pictures and words on them. She wondered what they were about. She picked up one book and opened it. It was about animals. She saw a lion, a monkey, a giraffe and many more. She liked animals. She wanted to read the book.
+
+She asked her mom to help her. Her mom came and sat next to her. She said, "This is an amazing book, Lily. It has many stories about animals and their lives. Do you want me to read it to you?" Lily nodded. She was excited.
+
+Her mom started to read. She made funny voices and sounds for the animals. She asked Lily questions and pointed at the pictures. Lily listened and answered and laughed. She learned many new things about the animals. She felt happy.
+
+She said, "Thank you, mom. I love this book. Can we read another one?" Her mom smiled. She said, "Of course, my dear. We have a whole stack of books to explore. Let's see what else we can find." They hugged and picked up another book. They had a wonderful time.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play at the beach. One day, they saw a big seal on the sand. The seal looked sad and hurt. Tom and Lily wanted to help the seal.
+
+"Let's go and see the seal," Tom said.
+
+"OK, but we have to be quiet. Mom said seals are shy and scared of loud noises," Lily said.
+
+They walked slowly and quietly to the seal. The seal did not move or make a sound. Tom and Lily touched the seal's fur and felt how soft and warm it was.
+
+"Hello, seal. We are Tom and Lily. We want to be your friends," Tom said.
+
+The seal opened its eyes and looked at Tom and Lily. It seemed to smile a little. Tom and Lily smiled back.
+
+"Can we hug you, seal?" Lily asked.
+
+The seal nodded and moved closer to Tom and Lily. They wrapped their arms around the seal and felt its heartbeat. The seal made a happy noise and licked their faces.
+
+Tom and Lily were very happy. They forgot about everything else. They forgot about their mom, who was watching them from a distance. They forgot about the time, which was getting late. They forgot about the tide, which was getting high.
+
+They did not see the big wave that came from the sea. They did not hear the loud roar that filled the air. They did not feel the water that lifted them up and dragged them away.
+
+The seal tried to save Tom and Lily. It pushed them with its nose and tried to swim with them. But the wave was too strong and the current was too fast. The seal lost sight of Tom and Lily. It could not find them anymore.
+
+The seal was very sad and lonely. It regretted meeting Tom and Lily. It wished it had stayed away from them. It wished it had warned them about the danger. It wished it had never been their friend.
+
+Moral: Sometimes, being kind and curious can lead to trouble. Always listen to your mom and be careful of the sea.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make food for their toys. Sara found some celery in the fridge and cut it into pieces. She gave some to Ben and said, "Here, this is good for you. It makes you strong and healthy."
+
+Ben looked at the celery and made a face. He did not like celery. He thought it was bitter and boring. He said, "No, thank you. I want something else. Something sweet and yummy."
+
+Sara shrugged and put the celery on a plate. She said, "Suit yourself. But you will miss out on a surprise. There is something hidden inside the celery. Something very special."
+
+Ben was curious. He liked surprises. He asked, "What is it? What is inside the celery?"
+
+Sara smiled and said, "You will have to eat it and find out. But be careful. It is very serious. It can change your life."
+
+Ben was scared. He did not want to change his life. He liked his life the way it was. He said, "No, I don't want to eat it. You eat it. You tell me what it is."
+
+Sara shook her head and said, "No, I can't. It is only for you. You have to eat it. It is your destiny."
+
+Ben was confused. He did not know what destiny meant. He said, "What is destiny? Is it good or bad?"
+
+Sara said, "It is both. It is what you are meant to do. It is your purpose. It is your gift."
+
+Ben was intrigued. He liked gifts. He said, "A gift? What kind of gift?"
+
+Sara said, "A magic gift. A gift that will make you happy and powerful. A gift that will make you a hero."
+
+Ben was excited. He liked heroes. He said, "A hero? Like Superman? Like Spider-Man? Like Batman?"
+
+Sara said, "Yes, like them. But better. Because you will be you. And you will be amazing."
+
+Ben was convinced. He wanted to be amazing. He wanted to be a hero. He said, "OK, I will eat it. I will eat the celery. Give it to me."
+
+Sara handed him a piece of celery. Ben took a bite and chewed. He waited for something to happen. He waited for the surprise. He waited for the magic.
+
+But nothing happened. He felt nothing. He saw nothing. He heard nothing. He said, "Hey, this is just celery. There is nothing inside. There is no surprise. There is no magic. You lied to me."
+
+Sara laughed and said, "No, I didn't. I told you the truth. The surprise is that there is no surprise. The magic is that there is no magic. The gift is that you ate something good for you. And the hero is that you tried something new. You are brave and smart and funny. And that is amazing."
+
+Ben was angry. He felt tricked and fooled. He said, "That is not fair. That is not fun. That is not a story. That is a joke. A bad joke. A mean joke. You are not my friend. You are not my chef. You are a liar."
+
+Sara said, "No, I'm not. I'm your sister. And I love you. And I'm sorry. I was just playing. I was just joking. I was just trying to make you laugh. And to make you eat your vegetables. Please don't be mad at me. Please forgive me. Please play with me."
+
+Ben looked at Sara. He saw her eyes. He saw her smile. He saw her tears. He felt her hug. He felt her love. He felt his love. He said, "OK, I forgive you. I love you too. You are my sister. And you are my friend. And you are my chef. But next time, no more celery. OK?"
+
+Sara said, "OK, no more celery. Next time, we can have something else. Something sweet and yummy. Like cookies. Or cake. Or ice cream."
+
+Ben said, "Yes, that sounds good. That sounds better. That sounds delicious. Let's go and make some. Come on, let's go."
+
+Sara and Ben ran to the pantry. They looked for the ingredients. They found some flour and sugar and eggs and butter and chocolate and vanilla. They mixed them together and put them in the oven.

+One day, Lily met a boy named Timmy. Timmy was very selfish and didn't like to share his toys. Lily wanted to teach Timmy a lesson. 
+
+So, they played a game of hide-and-seek. Lily was very good at hiding, but Timmy found her. He was so happy that he shared his toys with her. Lily was happy too, and said, "You win, Timmy!" 
+
+From that day on, Timmy learned to share and he and Lily became good friends. And they played together every day, having lots of fun.
+Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to draw with his pencil. He drew pictures of his family, his pets, and his favorite things. 
+
+One day, Timmy's mom gave him a special pencil. It was a magic pencil that could grow bigger and bigger. Timmy was so excited to use it! 
+
+He drew and drew with his magic pencil, and soon it grew so big that he could barely hold it. Timmy was so proud of himself and his big pencil. He showed it to his mom and she was proud too. 
+
+From that day on, Timmy kept drawing and his magic pencil kept growing. He was the happiest little boy in the world!
+Once upon a time, there was a little birdie named Tweet. Tweet loved to fly high up in the sky and feel the wind blowing through her feathers. One day, Tweet found a delicate envelope on the ground. She picked it up with her beak and flew to her friend, Bunny.
+
+"Look, Bunny! I found an envelope!" said Tweet.
+
+"What's an envelope?" asked Bunny.
+
+"It's a special paper that you put letters in and send to your friends," explained Tweet.
+
+"Oh, I see!" said Bunny. "Can we fly together to deliver the envelope?"
+
+"Of course!" said Tweet. So, they flew together to deliver the envelope to their friend, Squirrel. Squirrel was very happy to receive a letter from his friends and thanked them for being so kind. From that day on, Tweet, Bunny, and Squirrel would often fly together and have many more adventures.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to play outside and explore nature. One day, she found a shiny rock on the ground. It was so pretty and smooth, she decided it must be hers. 
+
+Lily took the rock home and showed it to her mom. "Look, mommy! This rock is mine now. It belongs to me," she said with a big smile. Her mom agreed that the rock was very nice and sweet of Lily to find. 
+
+Lily kept the rock on her dresser and would sometimes talk to it like it was her friend. She loved her rock and knew it would always belong to her.
+Sara liked to study bugs. She had a jar with holes in the lid, and she would catch bugs in the yard and put them in the jar. She would look at them and learn their names and colors and shapes.
+
+One day, she found a weird bug. It had six legs, but also wings and a long tail. It was green and shiny and made a loud buzz. Sara was curious and wanted to study it. She ran after it with her jar, but the bug was fast and flew away.
+
+"Come back, bug!" Sara shouted. "I want to see you!"
+
+The bug did not listen. It flew over the fence and into the woods. Sara followed it, but she did not see the sign that said "Danger! Do not enter!"
+
+She ran into the woods, but soon she was lost. She could not see her house or the yard or the fence. She only saw trees and bushes and rocks. She was scared and lonely.
+
+"Help!" Sara cried. "Where am I?"
+
+She heard a voice. It was not the bug. It was a man. He wore a hat and a coat and had a big bag. He saw Sara and smiled.
+
+"Hello, little girl," he said. "What are you doing here?"
+
+Sara did not like the man. He looked weird and mean. She held her jar tight and backed away.
+
+"I'm looking for a bug," she said. "A green and shiny bug with wings and a tail."
+
+The man laughed. He opened his bag and showed Sara what was inside. Sara gasped. There were many jars, and in each jar there was a bug. Some were green and shiny, some were red and hairy, some were black and spiky. They were all weird and scary.
+
+"These are my bugs," the man said. "I study them. I catch them and keep them and sell them. They are very rare and valuable. Do you want to see them?"
+
+Sara shook her head. She did not want to see the man's bugs. She wanted to go home. She wanted to see her mom and dad and her dog and her toys. She wanted to see normal bugs, not weird bugs.
+
+"Please, let me go," Sara said. "I want to go home."
+
+The man frowned. He grabbed Sara's jar and opened the lid. He looked inside and saw nothing.
+
+"Where is your bug?" he asked. "Did you catch the green and shiny one?"
+
+Sara nodded. She had a plan. She pointed to a tree behind the man.
+
+"It's there," she said. "It flew out of the jar. Can you see it?"
+
+The man turned around and looked at the tree. He did not see the bug, but he heard a loud buzz. He thought it was the bug. He dropped Sara's jar and ran to the tree. He reached for his net.
+
+Sara saw her chance. She picked up her jar and ran the other way. She ran as fast as she could, until she saw the fence and the sign. She climbed over the fence and ran to her house. She saw her mom and dad and her dog and her toys. She hugged them and cried.
+
+"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," she said. "I was looking for a bug, but I found a weird man. He had many weird bugs in jars. He wanted to take my bug, but I tricked him and escaped."
+
+Her mom and dad and her dog and her toys hugged her back. They were glad she was safe. They told her not to go into the woods again, and not to talk to weird men. They told her to be careful with bugs, and to let them go after she studied them.
+
+Sara agreed. She learned her lesson. She still liked to study bugs, but only normal bugs, and only in the yard. She never saw the green and shiny bug again, but she always remembered it. She wondered if it was still in the woods, or if the weird man caught it. She hoped it was free and happy. She hoped it did not miss her jar.
+Lily liked to whistle. She whistled when she played, when she ate, and when she went to bed. She whistled loud and happy. But her brother Tom did not like her whistling. He said it was too noisy and annoying. He wanted her to stop.
+
+One day, Tom had a naughty idea. He found a snake toy in his room. It looked like a real snake, but it was not. It was brown and green and had a red tongue. Tom put the snake toy under Lily's pillow. He thought it would scare her and make her stop whistling.
+
+That night, Lily went to bed. She whistled a song as she lay down. She did not see the snake toy under her pillow. She felt something cold and hard on her neck. She screamed and jumped out of bed. She saw the snake toy and threw it away. She was very scared and angry.
+
+Tom heard her scream and laughed. He came to her room and said, "Did you like my snake? It was a joke. Now you will stop whistling, right?"
+
+Lily did not think it was funny. She was still scared and angry. She said, "No, I will not stop whistling. You are a naughty brother. You are mean and bad. I do not like you."
+
+She ran to her mom and dad and told them what Tom did. They were not happy with Tom. They scolded him and made him say sorry to Lily. They also took away his snake toy and gave it to Lily. Lily was happy. She whistled a song and hugged her snake toy. She said, "Thank you, mom and dad. I love you. And I love whistling."
+One day, a huge man came to the park. He had a big truck with many things inside. He said he was here to wash the slide, the swings and the sandbox. He took out a hose, a bucket and a brush.
+
+Some children were playing in the park. They saw the huge man and his truck. They were curious and wanted to watch him. They ran to the slide and said hello.
+
+"Hello, children," the huge man said. "Do you like the park?"
+
+"Yes, we do," the children said. "We like to play here every day."
+
+"That's good," the huge man said. "I'm here to make the park clean and shiny. Do you want to help me?"
+
+The children nodded. They liked to help. The huge man gave them each a small brush and a cloth. He showed them how to wash the slide with water and soap. He told them to be careful and not to slip.
+
+The children had fun washing the slide. They made bubbles and splashed each other. They laughed and sang. The huge man smiled and joined them. He was happy to see the children enjoy the park.
+
+When they finished washing the slide, the huge man thanked the children for their help. He gave them each a sticker and a candy. He said he had to wash the other things in the park too. He asked the children to play somewhere else while he worked.
+
+The children said goodbye to the huge man and his truck. They ran to the swings and the sandbox. They played there until their parents came to pick them up. They told their parents about the huge man and his truck. They said they helped him wash the slide. They showed their stickers and candies. Their parents praised them for being helpful and polite.
+
+The huge man finished washing the park. He packed his things and drove away. He was glad he met the children. He hoped they would come back to the park soon. He waved to them and honked his horn. The children waved back and shouted thank you. They liked the huge man and his truck. They liked the park more than ever.
+Mia and Ben were twins who loved to play with balloons. They had many balloons of different colors and shapes. They liked to blow them up, tie them, and make them into creative things. Sometimes they made animals, sometimes they made hats, and sometimes they made funny noises with them.
+
+One day, they decided to make a big balloon castle in their backyard. They used a lot of balloons and tape and sticks to make the walls and towers and flags. They worked very hard and had a lot of fun. They were very proud of their balloon castle.
+
+"Look at our castle, Mommy!" Mia said. "It is so big and pretty!"
+
+"Yes, it is, my sweeties," Mommy said. "You are very creative and clever. But remember, you have to clean up your balloons when you are done playing. Balloons can be dangerous for animals and birds if they pop and fly away."
+
+"OK, Mommy, we will," Ben said. "But can we play a little more?"
+
+"Sure, you can," Mommy said. "But don't forget to clean up later."
+
+Mia and Ben nodded and ran back to their castle. They pretended to be kings and queens and knights and princesses. They had so much fun that they forgot about time and Mommy's words.
+
+Soon, it was time for dinner. Mommy called them from the kitchen. "Mia, Ben, come inside. It's time to eat."
+
+"OK, Mommy, we're coming," Mia and Ben said. They left their castle and ran inside. They washed their hands and sat at the table. They ate their food and talked about their castle.
+
+"Can we play with our castle again tomorrow?" Mia asked.
+
+"Maybe, if you clean up your balloons tonight," Mommy said.
+
+"Oh, no!" Ben said. "We forgot to clean up our balloons!"
+
+Mia and Ben looked at each other with wide eyes. They realized they had made a big mistake. They jumped from their chairs and ran outside. But it was too late. The wind had blown their balloons away. Their castle was gone.
+
+Mia and Ben felt very sad and sorry. They had lost their balloons and their castle. They had also disobeyed Mommy. They went back inside and hugged Mommy.
+
+"We're sorry, Mommy," Mia and Ben said. "We forgot to clean up our balloons. We were having too much fun."
+
+Mommy hugged them back. She was not angry, but she was disappointed. She wanted them to learn to be responsible and careful.
+
+"It's OK, my sweeties," Mommy said. "I know you didn't mean to forget. But you have to remember that balloons are not toys to leave behind. They can hurt animals and birds and the environment. Next time, you have to clean up your balloons when you are done playing. Do you understand?"
+
+"Yes, Mommy, we understand," Mia and Ben said. "We're sorry. We love you."
+
+"I love you too, my sweeties," Mommy said. "Now, let's go brush your teeth and get ready for bed. Tomorrow is a new day. Maybe we can find some other creative things to play with."
+Lily liked to watch cartoons on TV. She liked the funny animals and the silly sounds they made. She smiled when they did something funny or nice. She had a chubby teddy bear that she hugged while she watched.
+
+One day, her mom said, "Lily, we are going to visit grandma. Do you want to come with me?"
+
+Lily nodded. She loved her grandma. She was kind and sweet. She always gave her cookies and hugs. She also had a big TV with many cartoons.
+
+Lily and her mom got in the car and drove to grandma's house. Lily brought her teddy bear with her. She looked out the window and saw the trees and the birds. She smiled when she saw a rainbow.
+
+When they arrived, grandma was waiting for them. She opened the door and said, "Hello, Lily! I'm so happy to see you! Come in, come in!"
+
+Lily ran to grandma and gave her a big hug. Grandma hugged her back and said, "You are such a lovely girl! And who is this?" She pointed at the teddy bear.
+
+Lily said, "This is my teddy bear. He likes to watch cartoons with me."
+
+Grandma smiled and said, "Well, then, let's go watch some cartoons together. I have some cookies and milk for you, too."
+
+Lily and grandma went to the living room and sat on the couch. They turned on the TV and found a cartoon channel. They watched the funny animals and the silly sounds they made. They laughed and smiled together. Lily and grandma were very happy.
+Lila and Ben are twins. They like to play in the garden with their toys. One day, they find a big squash on a vine. It is green and yellow and round.
+
+"Look, Ben, a squash!" Lila says. "Let's pick it and eat it. It is tasty."
+
+"No, Lila, we can't pick it. It is not ours. It belongs to Mommy. She grows it for soup." Ben says.
+
+"But I want to try it. It looks yummy. Please, Ben, let's pick it." Lila begs.
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He also wants to try the squash, but he knows Mommy will be angry if they take it. He has an idea.
+
+"OK, Lila, we can pick it, but we have to separate it. We will cut it in half and each take one part. Then we will hide it and eat it later. Mommy won't notice." Ben says.
+
+Lila agrees. She is happy. They find a sharp stone and use it to separate the squash. It is hard work, but they manage to cut it. They each take one half and run to their secret spot under the tree. They bite into the squash. It is juicy and sweet.
+
+"Mmm, this is tasty, Ben. You are smart." Lila says.
+
+"Yes, it is tasty, Lila. You are brave." Ben says.
+
+They finish their squash and wipe their mouths. They are full and happy. They don't know that Mommy saw them from the window. She is not angry. She is smiling. She is proud of her twins. She knows they love squash. She will make them more soup.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were pirates and look for treasure. They used a big box as their ship and a blanket as their sail.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a shiny vase!" Anna said, holding up a glass vase with flowers. "It must be very old and valuable. Maybe it has magic inside."
+
+"Wow, Anna, that's a great treasure!" Ben said, admiring the vase. "Can I see it?"
+
+"Sure, Ben, but be careful. It's very fragile. Don't drop it or break it." Anna said, handing the vase to Ben.
+
+Ben took the vase and looked at it closely. He saw the colors of the flowers and the water inside. He felt the smooth glass and the curved shape. He was so curious that he forgot to be careful. He tilted the vase too much and the water spilled out. The vase slipped from his hands and fell to the floor. It broke into many pieces with a loud crash.
+
+"Oh no, Ben, what did you do?" Anna cried, looking at the broken vase. "That was Mommy's favorite vase. She will be very angry and sad. We are in big trouble."
+
+"I'm sorry, Anna, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to break it. I was just looking at it. It was so pretty." Ben said, feeling scared and sorry. He started to cry.
+
+Anna and Ben heard Mommy coming. They quickly hid behind the couch. They hoped Mommy would not see the mess. They hoped Mommy would not be mad at them.
+
+Mommy entered the living room. She saw the broken vase and the water on the floor. She gasped and frowned. She looked around and saw Anna and Ben hiding behind the couch. She knew they were the ones who broke the vase.
+
+"Anna, Ben, come here right now." Mommy said, in a stern voice. "Did you break the vase?"
+
+Anna and Ben came out from behind the couch. They looked at Mommy with big eyes and sad faces. They nodded and said, "Yes, Mommy, we did. We're sorry, Mommy, we're sorry."
+
+Mommy sighed and knelt down. She hugged Anna and Ben and said, "I'm glad you told me the truth. I'm not happy that you broke the vase. It was a gift from Grandma and I loved it very much. But I love you more than any vase. You are my treasure. Accidents happen sometimes. You need to be more careful with things that are not yours. And you need to clean up the mess. Do you understand?"
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and said, "Yes, Mommy, we understand. We love you, Mommy. We will be more careful and we will clean up the mess."
+
+Mommy smiled and kissed Anna and Ben. She said, "That's good. Now, why don't you go to your room and get ready for bed? It's almost time to sleep. You had a long day of playing. You must be tired."
+
+Anna and Ben said, "Okay, Mommy. Good night, Mommy. We're sorry about the vase."
+
+Mommy said, "Good night, Anna. Good night, Ben. Don't worry about the vase. It's fine. I can get a new one. But I can't get a new you. You are my fine and special children. I love you very much."
+Tim is a big boy who likes to read. He can read many words in his books and magazines. He also likes to look at the newspaper with his dad. He sees pictures and words about the world.
+
+One day, Tim sees a newspaper on the street. It is dirty and wet. He thinks someone threw it away. He picks it up and takes it home. He wants to read it with his dad.
+
+But when he shows it to his dad, his dad is not happy. He says, "Tim, this is not your newspaper. This is someone else's newspaper. They paid money for it. They might be looking for it. You should not take things that are not yours. That is not nice."
+
+Tim feels sad. He did not know he did something wrong. He says, "I'm sorry, dad. I just wanted to read it with you. I like to read the newspaper. It is fun and interesting."
+
+His dad hugs him and says, "I know, Tim. I like to read the newspaper too. But we have our own newspaper. We can read it together. And if you want to read more newspapers, you can go to the library. They have many newspapers there. You can borrow them and read them for free. That is the right way to enjoy newspapers."
+
+Tim nods and says, "Okay, dad. I understand. I will not take other people's newspapers again. I will go to the library and borrow them. That is more helpful and fair."
+
+His dad smiles and says, "That's a good boy, Tim. I'm proud of you. You learned a good lesson today. Reading is fun, but honesty is more important."
+Tim and Mia were friends who liked to play with colors. They had many crayons and paints that they used to make pictures and cards. One day, they decided to mix some colors to see what would happen.
+
+"Look, Mia, I mixed red and yellow and made orange!" Tim said, showing his card.
+
+"That's nice, Tim, but I mixed blue and red and made purple!" Mia said, showing her card.
+
+They both liked their new colors, but they wanted to see more. They mixed different colors and made green, brown, pink and gray. They were very happy and proud of their cards.
+
+The next day, they went to the park with their cards. They saw a big sign that said "Color Contest". It was a game where children could show their cards and win a ticket for a ride. Tim and Mia wanted to play.
+
+They went to the table where a lady was waiting. She smiled and said, "Hello, children, do you want to join the color contest?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Tim and Mia said together.
+
+"OK, then, show me your cards and tell me what colors you used," the lady said.
+
+Tim and Mia showed their cards and explained how they mixed the colors. The lady was very impressed and said, "Wow, you are very clever and creative! You both win a ticket for the ride!"
+
+Tim and Mia were very happy and thanked the lady. They ran to the ride and had a lot of fun. They were also very humble and shared their cards with the other children. They made many new friends who liked their colors. Tim and Mia learned that mixing colors was fun and that being humble was good.
+Tom and Lily were playing cowboys and robbers in the garden. Tom had a hat and a pistol. Lily had a scarf and a bag of coins. Tom pretended to chase Lily and shoot at her. Lily ran and hid behind a tree.
+
+"Bang, bang, bang!" Tom shouted. "I got you, robber!"
+
+"No, you didn't!" Lily said. "You missed me!"
+
+Tom ran to the tree and tried to grab Lily. Lily dodged and ran to the other side. Tom followed her, but he did not see the rock on the ground. He tripped and fell. His pistol flew out of his hand and landed in the grass.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom cried. "I hurt my knee!"
+
+Lily heard Tom's cry and ran to him. She saw his knee was bleeding. She felt sorry for him. She dropped her bag of coins and hugged him.

+
+Tom sniffed and nodded. He hugged Lily back.
+
+"Thank you, Lily," he said. "You are a lovely robber."

+It was Anna's birthday. She was very happy. She wore a pink dress and a crown. Mom and Dad gave her a big hug and a cake. The cake had four candles. Anna blew them out and made a wish.
+
+Anna wanted to celebrate with her friends. She invited them to her house. They played games and sang songs. They had fun. Anna gave them party hats and balloons. She also gave them apple slices. The apples were red and sweet. Anna liked apples.
+

+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the lab. The lab is a big room with many things to see and touch. Anna and Ben are flexible. They can bend and stretch and twist their bodies.
+
+One day, they find a big ball in the lab. The ball is red and shiny and soft. Anna and Ben want to play with the ball. They take turns to roll it and bounce it and hug it.
+
+"Can I have the ball now?" Anna asks Ben.
+
+"OK, but only for a little bit," Ben says. He gives the ball to Anna.
+
+Anna rolls the ball on the floor. She tries to catch it with her feet. She laughs and claps.
+
+Ben watches Anna. He wants the ball back. He thinks of a way to get it.
+
+"Anna, look over there!" Ben says. He points to a window.
+
+Anna looks at the window. She sees a bird outside. The bird is blue and yellow and sings a pretty song.
+
+"What a nice bird!" Anna says. She forgets about the ball.
+
+Ben smiles. He grabs the ball from the floor. He runs away with it.
+
+"Hey, that's not fair!" Anna says. She sees Ben with the ball. She runs after him.
+
+"Give me the ball, Ben!" Anna says.
+
+"No, it's mine now!" Ben says.
+
+Anna and Ben start to fight over the ball. They pull and tug and shout.
+
+"Stop it, stop it!" a voice says. It is the teacher. She comes into the lab. She sees Anna and Ben with the ball.
+
+"What are you doing?" the teacher asks. She is not happy.
+
+"We are playing with the ball," Anna and Ben say.
+
+"Playing? It looks like fighting to me," the teacher says. "You are not being nice to each other. You are not minding the rules. The ball is for everyone to share. You have to take turns and say please and thank you. Do you understand?"
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They feel sorry. They know they did wrong.
+
+"We are sorry, teacher," Anna and Ben say.
+
+"Good. Now, give me the ball," the teacher says. She takes the ball from them. "You can have it back later, when you can play nicely. Now, go and say sorry to each other and give each other a hug."
+
+Anna and Ben do what the teacher says. They say sorry and hug each other. They are friends again.
+
+They go and find something else to play with in the lab. They are flexible. They can have fun with many things. They mind the rules. They are happy.
+Ben and Lily like to play with maps. They have many maps of different places. They pretend they are explorers and look for treasure.
+
+One day, they find a new map in a book. It is a map of a big park. It has many trees, flowers, animals and a pond. The map also has a red X on it.
+
+"Look, Lily, this map is interesting. It has a red X. Maybe there is treasure there," Ben says.
+
+"Let's go and see, Ben. Maybe we can find gold or jewels or toys," Lily says.
+
+They ask their mom if they can go to the park. Their mom says yes, but they have to stay together and be careful. She gives them a snack and a bottle of water. They take the map and go to the park.
+
+They follow the map and look for the red X. They see many things on the way. They see birds, squirrels, flowers and a big slide. They have fun, but they do not forget the treasure.
+
+They reach the pond and see the red X. It is on a small island in the middle of the water. There is a bridge to the island.
+
+"Wow, we found it, Lily. The treasure must be on the island," Ben says.
+
+"Let's go and get it, Ben. Maybe it is something amazing," Lily says.
+
+They cross the bridge and look for the treasure. They see a big box with a lock on it. They try to open it, but it is too hard.
+
+"Oh no, we need a key, Ben. Where can we find a key?" Lily says.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. Maybe the key is somewhere else on the map. Maybe we missed it," Ben says.
+
+They look at the map again. They see a small star next to a tree. They think maybe the star is the key.
+
+"Look, Lily, there is a star on the map. Maybe the star is the key. Let's go and see," Ben says.
+
+"OK, Ben, let's go and see. Maybe the star is the key," Lily says.
+
+They go back to the tree and look for the star. They find a small metal star hanging from a branch. They take it and run back to the box.
+
+They put the star in the lock and turn it. The box opens. They see what is inside.
+
+It is a treasure. It is a treasure of books. Books with pictures and stories and maps. Books for them to read and learn and enjoy.
+
+"Wow, Lily, this is the best treasure ever. Books are interesting. We can read them and know many things," Ben says.
+
+"Yes, Ben, this is the best treasure ever. Books are interesting. We can read them and have fun," Lily says.
+
+They hug each other and smile. They thank the map for the treasure. They take some books and go back to their mom. They tell her about their adventure. She is proud of them and happy for them.
+
+They go home and read the books. They learn and have fun. They love maps and books and each other. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a big box of stamps that she liked to stick on paper and make pictures. Ben had a toy car that he liked to zoom around the floor and make noises.
+
+"Can I play with your stamps, Lily?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, they are mine. You have your car," Lily said.
+
+"Please, Lily, just one stamp. I want to make a picture too," Ben said.
+
+"No, no, no. Go away, Ben. You are stupid," Lily said.
+
+Ben felt sad and angry. He wanted to play with the stamps too. He grabbed the box from Lily and ran away. Lily chased him and tried to get the box back. They pulled and pushed and shouted.
+
+"Give me my stamps, Ben!"
+
+"Let go, Lily!"
+
+The box was too heavy for them. It slipped from their hands and fell on the floor. The stamps spilled out and some of them broke. Lily and Ben stopped and looked at the mess. They felt sorry and scared.
+
+"Uh-oh, we broke the stamps," Ben said.
+
+"Mama will be mad at us," Lily said.
+
+They heard Mama coming from the kitchen. They quickly picked up the stamps and put them back in the box. They hid the box under the sofa and pretended to play with their toys.
+
+"Hello, my sweeties. What are you doing?" Mama asked.
+
+"Nothing, Mama. Just playing," Lily and Ben said.
+
+Mama smiled and gave them a hug. She did not see the broken stamps under the sofa. Lily and Ben felt guilty and hoped Mama would not find out. They decided to share their toys and not fight anymore. They learned that breaking things and being stupid was not fun.
+Tom and Lily liked to play store. They had a big box and some toys and books. They put the box in the yard and made a sign that said "Tom and Lily's Store". They hoped some people would come and buy their things.
+
+But no one came. The yard was empty. Tom and Lily felt sad. They wanted to sell their things and make some money. They wondered why no one wanted to buy their things.
+
+Then they saw a boy walking by. He had a bike and a helmet. He looked at their sign and stopped. He said, "Hi, I'm Ben. What are you selling?"
+
+Tom and Lily smiled. They showed him their toys and books. They said, "We have cars and dolls and puzzles and stories. Do you want to buy something?"
+
+Ben looked at their things. He liked the puzzles and the stories. He said, "How much are they?"
+
+Tom and Lily thought for a moment. They did not know how to count very well. They said, "One dollar for each thing."
+
+Ben nodded. He had some money in his pocket. He gave them two dollars and took a puzzle and a story. He said, "Thank you. These are nice things. I like your store."
+
+Tom and Lily thanked him. They were happy. They had sold some things and made some money. They hoped more people would come and buy their things. They said, "Bye, Ben. Come again."
+
+Ben waved and rode away on his bike. He was happy too. He had found some new things to play with. He liked Tom and Lily's store. He thought they were nice. He said, "Bye, Tom and Lily. I will come again."
+Tom and Lily were very excited to see the parade. They put on their hats and sunglasses, because it was a hot day. They held hands with Mom and Dad and walked to the big street where the parade would pass.
+
+"Look, there are balloons and flags and drums!" Lily said, pointing at the colorful floats and bands. "And there are clowns and animals and candy!"
+
+Tom nodded and smiled. He liked the parade too. He saw a big elephant with a funny hat and a small monkey with a red vest. He wanted to get closer and see them better. He let go of Mom's hand and ran to the sidewalk.
+
+"Tom, wait!" Mom called. "Don't go too far!"
+
+But Tom did not hear her. He was too busy watching the parade. He forgot to stay with his family. He forgot to look around. He forgot to be careful.
+
+Suddenly, he bumped into a man with a big camera. The man was angry and shouted at Tom. Tom was scared and started to cry. He looked for Mom and Dad, but he could not see them. There were too many people and too much noise. He felt lost and alone.
+
+"Mom! Dad! Where are you?" he sobbed.
+
+Lily heard Tom's voice. She saw him on the sidewalk, surrounded by strangers. She tugged on Dad's arm and pointed at Tom.
+
+"Dad, look! Tom is over there! He is crying! We have to help him!"
+
+Dad saw Tom too. He quickly made his way through the crowd and reached Tom. He hugged him and comforted him.
+
+"Tom, I'm here. It's okay. Don't cry. I'm sorry you got lost. You have to stay with us, okay? The parade is fun, but it can be dangerous too."
+
+Tom nodded and wiped his tears. He was happy to see Dad. He was sorry he forgot to listen to Mom. He hugged Dad back and said, "I'm sorry, Dad. I love you."
+
+Dad smiled and said, "I love you too, Tom. Come on, let's go back to Mom and Lily. They are waiting for us."
+
+Tom took Dad's hand and walked back to his family. He saw Mom and Lily waving at him. He waved back and smiled. He was glad to be with them again. He decided to watch the parade from a safe distance. He did not want to forget them again. He wanted to enjoy the parade with them.
+Sara and her mom were going to the park. They walked to the big road and waited for a taxi. Sara liked to see the cars and buses go by. She saw a yellow taxi and waved her hand.
+
+"Taxi, taxi!" she shouted.
+
+The taxi stopped and the driver opened the door. He had a big smile and a funny hat.
+
+"Hello, little girl. Where are you going?" he asked.
+
+"To the park, please. We want to play on the swings and slides," Sara said.
+
+"Okay, hop in. I will take you there. It is not far," the driver said.
+
+Sara and her mom got in the taxi and buckled their seat belts. The driver turned on the radio and sang along. He was very nice and funny. He made Sara and her mom laugh.
+
+Soon, they arrived at the park. The driver stopped the taxi and helped them out.
+
+"Have fun, little girl. Maybe I will see you again," he said.
+
+"Thank you, mister. You are very nice. Bye-bye," Sara said.
+
+She gave him a hug and ran to the park. She was very happy. She had a surprise ride in a taxi with a nice driver. She could not wait to tell her dad.
+Ben and Mia were twins who liked to act. They had many toys and costumes to play with. They lived in a big house with their wealthy parents. They had a stable in the backyard where they kept their horses.
+
+One day, they decided to act out a story about a king and a queen. Ben put on a crown and a cape. Mia wore a dress and a necklace. They went to the stable and pretended it was their castle. They talked to their horses as if they were their subjects.
+
+"Hello, my loyal horse," Ben said to his brown horse. "You are the best horse in the land. You can run fast and jump high. I am proud of you."
+
+"Hello, my beautiful horse," Mia said to her white horse. "You are the prettiest horse in the land. You have a long mane and a shiny coat. I love you."
+
+They had fun acting as the king and the queen. They gave their horses carrots and apples as treats. They rode their horses around the stable and waved to their imaginary people.
+
+Their mother watched them from the window and smiled. She was happy that her children had such a good imagination. She called them for lunch and they ran to the house. They took off their costumes and washed their hands. They told their mother about their story and she praised them for their acting. They ate their sandwiches and drank their juice. They thanked their mother and went back to the stable to continue their play.
+Lily was a curious girl who liked to explore new things. One day, she saw a big bottle of shampoo in the bathroom. She wondered what it was and how it smelled. She climbed on a stool and reached for the bottle.
+
+"Be careful, Lily!" her mom said, who was brushing her teeth. "That is shampoo. We use it to wash our hair and make it clean and soft."
+
+"Can I smell it, mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, but don't open it. It might spill and make a mess," her mom said.
+
+Lily lifted the bottle to her nose and sniffed. It smelled like flowers and honey. She liked it very much. She wanted to try it on her hair.
+
+"Can I choose this shampoo, mom?" Lily asked. "I want to use it when we take a bath."
+
+"Okay, you can choose this shampoo, Lily," her mom said. "But only a little bit. Too much shampoo can make your eyes sting and your hair dry."
+
+"Okay, mom," Lily said. She was happy that she could choose the shampoo. She put the bottle back on the shelf and got down from the stool. She hugged her mom and said, "Thank you, mom. You are the best."
+
+"You're welcome, Lily. You are the best, too," her mom said. They smiled and kissed each other. Then they went to take a bath and wash their hair with the shampoo that Lily chose.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park with their toy jeep. They liked to pretend they were going on a safari and see different animals. They made noises like lions, elephants and monkeys.
+
+"Look, there's a giraffe!" Max said, pointing to a tall tree.
+
+"Wow, let's go closer!" Lily said, driving the jeep towards the tree.
+
+But as they got closer, they saw that it was not a giraffe, but a man on a ladder, painting the tree. He looked down and saw them.
+
+"Hello, little explorers!" he said with a smile. "Are you looking for giraffes?"
+
+Lily and Max felt embarrassed. They had made a mistake. They did not know what to say.
+
+"Sorry, sir, we thought you were a giraffe," Lily said in a small voice.
+
+The man laughed. He was not angry. He was kind.
+
+"That's okay, I can see why you thought that. I do have a long neck and spots on my shirt," he said. "But I'm just painting the tree for the park. Do you like it?"
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They liked the bright colors he was using.
+
+"It's very pretty," Max said.
+
+"Thank you. You have a nice jeep, by the way. Can I see it?" the man asked.
+
+Lily and Max smiled. They felt less embarrassed. They drove the jeep closer to the man and showed him how it worked. He praised their jeep and asked them about their safari. They told him about the animals they had seen and heard. He listened and asked them questions. He was very friendly.
+
+Lily and Max had fun talking to the man. They learned that his name was Sam and that he liked painting and animals. They also learned that sometimes it was okay to make mistakes and that people could be kind and helpful. They thanked Sam for his time and said goodbye. They drove away in their jeep, feeling happy and proud. They had made a new friend.
+Anna was very tired. She had played all day with her toys and her friends. She wanted to go to sleep in her bedroom. But she was afraid of the dark. She did not like the shadows and the noises at night.
+
+She asked her mom to stay with her. "Mom, can you stay with me? I am scared of the dark. Please, mom, please."
+
+Her mom smiled and hugged her. "Don't worry, Anna. There is nothing to be afraid of. The shadows are just from the moon and the stars. The noises are just from the wind and the trees. They are not scary. They are your friends."
+
+Her mom turned on a small lamp and read her a story. Anna liked the story. It was about a princess and a dragon. She closed her eyes and listened to her mom's voice. She felt warm and safe.
+
+Soon, she fell asleep and had a dream. In her dream, she was the princess and she had a dragon as a pet. The dragon was big and green and friendly. He could fly and breathe fire. He took her to see many wonderful places. She was happy and brave.
+
+But then, she heard a loud noise. It was not from the dragon. It was from her brother. He had come into her bedroom and jumped on her bed. He wanted to play with her. He did not know she was sleeping and dreaming.
+
+Anna woke up and cried. She was angry and sad. Her dream was gone. She yelled at her brother. "Go away! You are mean and rude. You ruined my dream. I hate you!"
+
+Her brother was shocked and hurt. He did not mean to make her cry. He just wanted to have fun with her. He loved her. He said he was sorry. "I'm sorry, Anna. I didn't know you were sleeping and dreaming. I wanted to play with you. I love you. Please, don't hate me."
+
+Anna looked at her brother. She saw his tears and his sorry face. She felt bad for yelling at him. She loved him too. She said she was sorry. "I'm sorry, too, brother. I was sleeping and dreaming. I had a nice dream. I love you. Please, don't be sad."
+
+They hugged and said they were sorry again. They decided to play together. They pretended to be a princess and a dragon. They had fun and laughed. They forgot about the shadows and the noises. They were happy and brave.
+Anna and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Anna had a big teddy bear and Ben had a small car.
+
+"Look, Anna, my car can go fast!" Ben said, zooming his car on the floor.
+
+"Wow, Ben, your car is cool!" Anna said, hugging her teddy bear. "But my teddy is soft and cuddly!"
+
+They laughed and played some more, until they heard a knock on the door.
+
+"Who is it?" Anna asked, feeling anxious.
+
+They ran to the door and opened it. It was the mailman, holding a big envelope.
+
+"Hello, kids, I have a letter for you!" the mailman said, smiling. "It's from your grandma, she sent you a surprise!"
+
+"Wow, a letter from grandma!" Ben said, excited. "What is the surprise?"
+
+The mailman handed them the envelope and waved goodbye. Anna and Ben tore it open and found a card with a picture of grandma and a note. They also found a small bottle with a label that said "magic potion".
+
+"Look, Ben, grandma wrote us a note!" Anna said, reading the note. "She said she loves us and misses us, and she sent us a magic potion that can make us shrink!"
+
+"Shrink?" Ben said, curious. "What does that mean?"
+
+"It means we can become very small, like a bug!" Anna said, holding the bottle. "Do you want to try it?"
+
+Ben nodded, feeling adventurous. Anna opened the bottle and poured some of the potion on their hands. They felt a tingling sensation and watched as they became smaller and smaller.
+
+"Wow, Anna, we are shrinking!" Ben said, amazed. "Look, everything is so big now!"
+
+They saw the teddy bear and the car on the floor, looking like giant mountains. They saw the card and the note, looking like huge posters. They saw the bottle, looking like a skyscraper.
+
+"Let's explore, Ben!" Anna said, holding his hand. "This is so fun!"
+
+They ran around the living room, climbing on the toys and the furniture, and having a great time. They felt like they were in a new world, full of wonders and adventures. They forgot about their worries and their fears, and only felt joy and curiosity. They were happy to be together, and to have a grandma who loved them and sent them a surprise. They were happy to be shrinking.
+Tim and Mia are friends. They like to play outside in the snow. They make a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They give him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes.
+
+"Look at our snowman!" Tim says. "He is impressive!"
+
+"Yes, he is!" Mia agrees. "But he looks cold. Maybe we can make him some heat."
+
+"How can we make heat?" Tim asks.
+
+Mia thinks for a moment. She sees a stick on the ground. She picks it up and says, "We can make a fire with this stick. We can rub it fast and hard on another stick. Then we can see sparks and flames. That is heat."
+
+Tim nods. He finds another stick and gives it to Mia. They sit down near the snowman and start to rub the sticks together. They rub and rub and rub, but nothing happens.
+
+"This is hard," Tim says. "I don't see any heat."
+
+"Me neither," Mia says. "Maybe we need something else."
+
+They look around and see some dry leaves and twigs. They gather them and put them under the sticks. They rub again, hoping to make heat.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a voice behind them. It is Tim's mom. She has come to check on them.
+
+"What are you doing, kids?" she asks. "Are you trying to make a fire?"
+
+Tim and Mia turn around and see her. They feel scared. They know that fire can be dangerous.
+
+"We are sorry, mom," Tim says. "We wanted to make heat for our snowman. He is impressive, but he is cold."
+
+Tim's mom smiles. She is not angry. She is glad that they are creative and caring. But she also knows that they need to be safe.
+
+"I see," she says. "Your snowman is impressive, indeed. But he doesn't need heat. He likes the cold. That's why he is made of snow. If you give him heat, he will melt and disappear. And that would be sad."
+
+Tim and Mia look at their snowman. They don't want him to melt. They want him to stay with them.
+
+"Oh, no," Mia says. "We don't want that. We want him to be happy."
+
+"Then let's leave him alone," Tim's mom says. "He is happy in the snow. And you can be happy too. How about we go inside and have some hot chocolate? That will make you warm and cozy."
+
+Tim and Mia agree. They say goodbye to their snowman and follow Tim's mom inside. They have some hot chocolate and cookies. They talk about their snowman and their fun in the snow. They are happy. They have made a good day.
+Ben likes to play with bricks. He has many bricks of different colors and shapes. He can build towers, houses, cars and animals with his bricks. He is very good at making original things with his bricks.
+
+One day, Ben wants to make a surprise for his mom. He thinks of what she likes. He knows she likes flowers, books and tea. He decides to make a flower with his bricks. He uses green bricks for the stem, yellow bricks for the center and red bricks for the petals. He is very proud of his flower. He thinks it is the most original flower in the world.
+
+He looks for something to wrap his flower. He wants to make it look nice and hide it from his mom. He finds some paper in his room. It is white and has dots on it. He thinks it is pretty. He takes the paper and wraps his flower with it. He uses some tape to stick the paper together. He writes "For Mom" on the paper with a crayon.
+
+He runs to the kitchen where his mom is making tea. He says "Mom, I have a surprise for you!" He gives her the wrapped flower. His mom smiles and hugs him. She says "Thank you, Ben, you are so sweet!" She opens the paper and sees the brick flower. She is very surprised and happy. She says "Wow, Ben, this is the most original flower I have ever seen! You are very creative and clever!" She puts the flower on the table and kisses him. Ben is very happy. He loves his mom and his bricks.
+Anna liked to spin. She spun in her dress, she spun with her toys, she spun on the grass. She liked how the world looked when she spun. She felt happy and dizzy.
+
+One day, she wanted to spin with her brother, Ben. Ben was older and dependable. He always helped Anna and played with her. Anna asked him, "Ben, can you spin with me?"
+
+Ben smiled and said, "Sure, Anna. But first, we have to drink our milk. Milk is good for us. It makes us strong and healthy."
+
+Anna nodded and followed Ben to the kitchen. They each got a glass of milk and drank it. Anna liked the taste of milk. It was sweet and creamy.
+
+"Okay, now we can spin," Ben said. He took Anna's hand and they ran to the living room. They spun around and around, laughing and giggling. They spun faster and faster, until they fell on the couch. They looked at each other and smiled.
+
+"That was fun," Anna said.
+
+"Yes, it was," Ben said. "You are a good spinner, Anna."
+
+"And you are a good brother, Ben," Anna said.
+
+They hugged each other and rested on the couch. They felt happy and dizzy. They liked to spin.
+Anna loves to drive her toy car. She has a red car with four wheels and a horn. She drives it around the house and the yard. She makes noises like vroom and beep.
+
+One day, Anna's dad comes home with a big surprise. He has a new watch for Anna. It is a pink watch with a flower on it. He puts it on Anna's wrist and shows her how to tell time. He says, "This is a special watch for a special girl. You can use it to learn how to read the clock and know when it is time for lunch, nap, or play."
+
+Anna is very happy and proud. She hugs her dad and says, "Thank you, dad. I love you and I love my new watch." She shows her watch to her mom and her brother. They say, "Wow, Anna, you have a beautiful watch. You are a big girl now."
+
+Anna drives her toy car with her new watch on. She looks at her watch and says, "It is time for lunch. I have to drive to the kitchen." She drives her car to the table and parks it next to her chair. She eats her sandwich and drinks her juice. She says, "I am a good driver and a good reader. I can drive and tell time with my watch." She smiles and looks at her dad. He smiles and says, "I am very proud of you, Anna. You are a smart and sweet girl."
+Tim and Sue were friends who liked to play on the farm. They liked to run, jump, and roll on the grass. One day, they saw a big red barn. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Let's go in the barn," Tim said. "Maybe we can find some animals or toys."
+
+Sue nodded. "OK, but we have to be careful. The farmer might not like it if we touch his things."
+
+They opened the door and went inside. They saw some cows, some pigs, and some chickens. They also saw a big pile of hay.
+
+"Wow, look at all the hay!" Tim said. "It looks so soft and fun. Let's roll on it!"
+
+Sue agreed. They climbed on the hay and started to roll. They laughed and giggled. They felt happy.
+
+But then, they heard a loud voice. It was the farmer. He was angry.
+
+"Hey, you kids! What are you doing in my barn? Get off my hay! You are making a mess!"
+
+Tim and Sue were scared. They jumped off the hay and ran to the door. They saw the farmer coming towards them. He looked very mad.
+
+"Sorry, sir," Tim said. "We just wanted to play. We didn't mean to cause trouble."
+
+"Sorry is not enough," the farmer said. "You should not have come in here without asking. You should be honest and respectful. This is my barn, not yours. Now, go home and don't come back!"
+
+Tim and Sue felt ashamed. They knew they had done something wrong. They ran out of the barn and back to their homes. They learned a lesson that day. They learned to be honest and respectful of other people's property. They also learned that rolling on hay is not as fun as it looks.
+Tom was a big dog who liked to run and play. He had a lot of friends who were also dogs. They would chase balls, dig holes, and bark at cats. Tom was happy, but he had one problem. He had a flea.
+
+The flea was very small, but very annoying. It would bite Tom and make him itch. Tom would scratch and shake, but the flea would not go away. The flea was selfish. It only cared about itself.
+
+One day, Tom and his friends went to the park. They saw a pond with ducks and frogs. Tom wanted to swim and cool off. He hoped the water would wash away the flea. He ran towards the pond, but the flea said, "Stop! Don't go in the water! You will drown me!"
+
+Tom stopped and looked at the flea. He said, "Why should I listen to you? You are always biting me and making me itch. You are selfish. You don't care about me."
+
+The flea said, "But I need you. You are my home. You are my food. You are my friend. Please, stay with me. Don't leave me alone."
+
+Tom felt sorry for the flea. He thought, maybe the flea is lonely. Maybe it needs a friend. Maybe it will stop biting me if I stay with it. He said, "Okay, flea. I will stay with you. I will not go in the water. I will be your friend."
+
+Tom's friends saw him and called him. They said, "Tom, come on! The water is fun! The ducks are funny! The frogs are green! Come and play with us!"
+
+Tom said, "No, thank you. I have to stay with my flea. It is my friend."
+
+Tom's friends were sad. They said, "Tom, you are silly. The flea is not your friend. The flea is selfish. It only wants to use you. It will never stop biting you. It will make you sick. Come and play with us. We are your real friends."
+
+Tom said, "No, thank you. I have to stay with my flea. It is my friend."
+
+Tom's friends left him. They went to the pond and had fun. They swam and splashed and quacked and croaked. They forgot about Tom and his flea.
+
+Tom stayed with his flea. He did not have fun. He was hot and itchy and lonely. He wished he had gone to the pond with his friends. He wished he had not listened to his flea. He wished he had not been so foolish.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't let selfish people fool you. They don't care about you. They only care about themselves. Choose your friends wisely. Friends should make you happy, not sad. Friends should help you, not hurt you. Friends should share with you, not take from you.
+Tom and Anna are playing with blocks. They want to make a big house with many rooms. Tom likes to make squares with his blocks. He thinks squares are the best shape. Anna likes to make circles and triangles with her blocks. She thinks they are more fun.
+
+"Look, I made a square window for the house," Tom says, showing his block to Anna.
+
+"That's boring," Anna says. "Circles are better. They are round and smooth. Squares are sharp and hard."
+
+"No, they are not. Squares are strong and neat. Circles are weak and messy," Tom says.
+
+They start to argue. They do not want to share their blocks. They pull and push each other. Their blocks fall down. Their house is ruined.
+
+They both feel sad and angry. They do not want to play together anymore.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the broken house and the upset children.
+
+"What happened here?" she asks.
+
+"Tom only likes squares. He does not like my circles and triangles. He ruined my window," Anna says.
+
+"Anna only likes circles and triangles. She does not like my squares. She ruined my wall," Tom says.
+
+Mom sighs. She picks up some blocks and sits down with them.
+
+"Tom and Anna, you are both good at making shapes. But you do not have to make the same shapes. You can make different shapes and still play together. You can make a house with square windows and circle doors. Or a house with triangle roofs and square chimneys. Or any other combination you like. The important thing is to be kind and respectful to each other. Can you do that?" she asks.
+
+Tom and Anna look at each other. They feel sorry for fighting. They nod.
+
+"Yes, Mom. We can do that," they say.
+
+They hug and say sorry. They start to pick up their blocks and make a new house. They use squares, circles and triangles. They help each other and compliment each other. They have fun.
+
+They finish their house. It is big and beautiful. It has many rooms and shapes. They are proud of their work.
+
+They invite Mom to see their house. She smiles and praises them.
+
+"What a wonderful house! You did a great job. I'm so proud of you. You are both very creative and smart. And you are good friends. How do you feel?" she asks.
+
+They feel happy and comfortable. They hug Mom and thank her.
+
+"We feel good, Mom. We like our house. And we like each other. Thank you for helping us," they say.
+
+They play in their house. They pretend to be a family. They have a lot of fun. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in their room. They had a toy phone and a toy camera. They liked to pretend they were making shows for their friends.
+
+"Let's record a show about animals," Lily said. She was bossy and always told Tom what to do. "You be the lion and I be the zookeeper."
+
+Tom nodded. He liked animals and he liked to roar. He put on a furry hat and crawled on the floor. Lily held the toy camera and pointed it at him.
+
+"Hello, friends. Welcome to the zoo. Today we are going to see the lion. He is very big and strong. Look at his mane and his teeth. But don't be afraid. He is friendly and likes to play. Right, lion?" Lily said.
+
+"Roar!" Tom said. He jumped up and ran towards Lily. He wanted to tickle her and make her laugh.
+
+"Stop, stop!" Lily said. She dropped the toy camera and ran away. She bumped into the lamp and knocked it over. The lamp made a loud noise and the light went out.
+
+"Uh-oh," Tom said. He heard their mom coming up the stairs. He knew they were in trouble. He wished they had not played with the lamp. He wished Lily was not so bossy. He wished they had recorded a show about something else.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were pirates and look for treasure. Ben had a paper hat and a stick for a sword. Lily had a scarf and a spoon for a shovel.
+
+They saw a big hill with rocks and dirt. They ran to the top and looked around. "Look, Lily, we found a cliff!" Ben said. "We can see the whole park from here!"
+
+Lily nodded. "Maybe there is treasure under the rocks. Let's dig!" She started to poke the ground with her spoon.
+
+But then they heard a loud bark. A big dog was running towards them. It had black fur and yellow eyes. It looked different from the dogs they knew. It looked mean and scary.
+
+"Help! Help!" Ben and Lily shouted. They were afraid of the dog. They did not know what to do.
+
+The dog came closer and closer. It growled and showed its teeth. Ben and Lily backed away from the edge of the cliff. They had nowhere to go.
+
+"Please, go away!" Lily cried. "We don't have any treasure for you!"
+
+The dog stopped and tilted its head. It seemed to understand. It wagged its tail and licked its lips. It did not want treasure. It wanted something else.
+
+"Give me your hat and your scarf!" the dog said. "Or I will push you off the cliff!"
+
+Ben and Lily were shocked. The dog could talk! How was that possible? They had never heard a dog talk before.
+
+They looked at each other. They did not want to lose their hat and scarf. They liked them very much. But they did not want to fall off the cliff either. They were too high and too scared.
+
+They had no choice. They had to surrender.
+
+"Okay, okay, you can have them!" Ben said. He took off his hat and threw it to the dog. Lily did the same with her scarf.
+
+The dog caught them in its mouth and ran away. It was happy. It had new things to play with.
+
+Ben and Lily hugged each other. They were sad and angry. They had lost their hat and scarf. They had lost their game.
+
+They decided to go home and tell their mom what happened. Maybe she would make them feel better. Maybe she would buy them new hat and scarf. Maybe she would know why the dog was different.
+Tom and Mia like to look at the stars at night. They see many stars in the sky. Some are big and some are small. Some are bright and some are dim. Tom and Mia wonder what the stars are.
+
+One night, Tom has an idea. He urges Mia to come with him. He says, "Let's go to the hill. We can see the stars better there." Mia agrees. They put on their coats and hats. They take a flashlight and a blanket. They walk to the hill.
+
+On the hill, Tom and Mia spread the blanket on the grass. They lie down and look at the stars. They see more stars than before. They see shapes and patterns. They see a big bear and a little bear. They see a spoon and a cup. They see a man and a woman. They make up stories about the stars.
+
+Tom and Mia have fun. They feel happy and cozy. They wish they could touch the stars. They wonder if the stars are fair. Do they share their light with each other? Do they help each other when they are sad? Do they play and laugh together?
+
+Tom and Mia fall asleep on the blanket. They dream of the stars. They dream of flying and visiting the stars. They dream of being friends with the stars. They dream of being stars themselves.
+Anna was a girl who liked to play with keys. She had many keys of different shapes and colors. She liked to unlock doors and boxes and see what was inside. One day, she found a big key in her mom's room. It was shiny and had a flower on it. Anna wondered what it could unlock.
+
+She looked around and saw a big chest in the corner. It was covered with a veil that had stars on it. Anna thought it must be very special. She ran to the chest and lifted the veil. She saw a lock that matched the key. She was very happy. She put the key in the lock and turned it.
+
+The chest opened with a loud noise. Anna was curious and excited. She looked inside and saw many things. There were books and toys and clothes and jewels. Anna wanted to touch them and play with them. She thought she was very lucky. She did not know that the chest belonged to a witch who lived in the house. The witch had put a spell on the chest. Anyone who opened it would be trapped inside forever.
+
+The witch heard the noise and came to her room. She saw Anna and the open chest. She was very angry. She laughed and said, "You are a foolish girl. You should not have opened my chest. Now you will never get out. You will stay here with my things and be my slave." She pushed Anna into the chest and closed it. She locked it with the key and put the veil back on. She took the key and left the room.
+
+Anna was scared and sad. She cried and shouted for help. But no one heard her. She was alone in the dark. She wished she had not played with the key. She wished she had listened to her mom. She learned that being curious is not always good. Sometimes it can lead to trouble. She was not lucky. She was unlucky.
+One day, a curious boy named Max found a big toy in his dad's garage. It was a shiny car with four wheels and a remote control. Max wanted to play with it, so he asked his dad.
+
+"Dad, can I use this car?" Max said.
+
+"Sure, son, but be careful. This is not a normal car. It can go very fast and do amazing things. It can even reverse and go backwards!" Dad said.
+
+"Wow, that sounds fun! How do I make it reverse?" Max asked.
+
+"See this button on the remote? If you press it, the car will reverse. But don't press it too much, or you might get into trouble," Dad warned.
+
+Max nodded and took the remote. He went outside and turned on the car. He made it go forward and backward, left and right, and had a lot of fun. He liked to press the reverse button and watch the car zoom backwards.
+
+But then, he pressed the reverse button too long. The car started to go faster and faster, and it did not stop. It went past the fence, past the street, past the park, and past the city. Max ran after it, but he could not catch up.
+
+The car kept reversing until it reached the edge of the world. It flew off the ground and into the sky. It went past the clouds, past the stars, and past the moon. It reversed all the way to another planet.
+
+The planet was green and blue, and had strange plants and animals. The car landed on the planet and stopped. Max was still holding the remote, and he saw the car on the screen.
+
+"Wow, where am I?" Max wondered.
+
+He heard a voice from the car. It was a friendly voice, and it said:
+
+"Hello, I am Zee. I live on this planet. Who are you?"
+
+Max was surprised, but he answered:
+
+"Hello, I am Max. I live on Earth. I was playing with this car, and it brought me here."
+
+Zee was curious, and he said:
+
+"What is a car? And what is Earth?"
+
+Max tried to explain, but he only used simple words. He said:
+
+"A car is a toy that can move. Earth is a big ball where I live. It has many people and things."
+
+Zee wanted to know more, and he said:
+
+"Can I see your car? And can you show me Earth?"
+
+Max agreed, and he said:
+
+"Sure, you can see my car. But I don't know how to show you Earth. It is very far away."
+
+Zee had an idea, and he said:
+
+"Maybe we can use your car to go back. You said it can reverse, right?"
+
+Max remembered, and he said:
+
+"Yes, it can. But I don't know how to make it fly again."
+
+Zee said:
+
+"Maybe you can press the reverse button again. Maybe it will work."
+
+Max thought it was worth a try, and he said:
+
+"OK, let's try. But we have to be careful. We don't want to get into trouble."
+
+They got into the car and buckled up. Max pressed the reverse button, and hoped for the best. The car started to move backwards, and it lifted off the ground. It flew past the plants and animals, past the sky, and past the stars. It reversed all the way back to Earth.
+
+Max was happy, and he said:
+
+"Look, Zee, we made it! There is Earth!"
+
+Zee was amazed, and he said:
+
+"Wow, it is beautiful! It is so different from my planet!"
+
+The car landed on the ground, and it stopped. Max and Zee got out of the car, and hugged. They were glad they were safe, and they had made a new friend.
+
+Max said:
+
+"Zee, you are very nice. I like you. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Zee said:
+
+"Max, you are very nice too. I like you. Yes, I want to play with you."
+
+They decided to play with the car, and other toys. They had a lot of fun, and they learned a lot from each other. They were curious, and they liked to explore.
+
+Dad came outside, and he saw Max and Zee. He was shocked, and he said:
+
+"Max, who is this? And where did you go?"
+
+Max smiled, and he said:
+
+"Dad, this is Zee. He is my friend. He lives on another planet. We went there with the car, and we came back. It was amazing!"
+
+Dad was speechless, and he said:
+
+"Wow, that is amazing. But how did you do that?"
+
+Max said:
+
+"It was easy. We just used the reverse button!"
+Lily and Max were playing in the big building where their mom worked. They liked to run and hide and pretend they were spies. Sometimes they used the elevator to go up and down. The elevator had buttons with numbers and pictures. Lily liked to press the buttons and imagine where they would go.
+
+One day, they pressed the button with a star. The elevator made a loud noise and stopped. The doors did not open. Lily and Max were scared. They tried to press other buttons, but nothing happened. They shouted for help, but no one heard them.
+
+"Mom will find us, right?" Max asked.
+
+"Of course, she will. She knows we are here. Don't be afraid, Max. Let's imagine we are in a spaceship. We are going to the moon. Look, there are stars outside the window." Lily said.
+
+She pointed to the small light on the ceiling. She tried to make Max feel better. She hugged him and sang a song.
+
+After a while, they heard a voice from a speaker. It was their mom.
+
+"Lily, Max, are you there? I'm sorry, the elevator is broken. But don't worry, they are fixing it. You will be out soon. I love you."
+
+"We love you too, mom. We are okay. We are in a spaceship. We are going to the moon." Lily said.
+
+They heard their mom laugh. She sounded happy.
+
+Soon, the elevator started to move again. The doors opened. Their mom was waiting for them. She hugged them and kissed them. She was not angry. She was glad they were safe.
+
+"Did you have fun in the moon?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, mom. It was amazing. But we are happy to be back on Earth. Can we have some ice cream?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. You are very brave and creative. But next time, please don't press the star button. It is for emergencies only." mom said.
+
+"Okay, mom. We are sorry. We won't do it again." Lily and Max said.
+
+They smiled and held their mom's hand. They walked to the ice cream shop. They were happy. They liked to play and imagine. But they also liked to be with their mom. She was the best.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their balloons in the park. They liked to blow them up and let them go. They watched them fly in the air and make funny noises.
+
+"Look, mine is bigger than yours!" Ben said, holding his red balloon.
+
+"No, mine is bigger!" Lily said, holding her blue balloon.
+
+They both blew their balloons as big as they could. Then they counted to three and released them at the same time.
+
+"Wow, they are so high!" Ben said, pointing at the sky.
+
+"Where do you think they will go?" Lily asked.
+
+"Maybe they will find a new place to live. Maybe they will meet other balloons and make friends." Ben said.
+
+"Or maybe they will pop and fall down." Lily said.
+
+They waited and watched, but they could not see their balloons anymore. They were too far away.
+
+"Are you sad?" Ben asked Lily.
+
+"A little bit. I liked my balloon. It was pretty and soft." Lily said.
+
+"Me too. But we can get new balloons. And we can be honest and tell mom and dad what happened." Ben said.
+
+"Okay. That sounds good. And maybe our balloons are happy too, wherever they are." Lily said.
+
+They held hands and walked back to their parents, who were sitting on a bench. They told them about their balloons and how they released them.
+
+Mom and dad smiled and hugged them.
+
+"That was very brave and honest of you, Ben and Lily. We are proud of you. And we are sure your balloons are having fun too." Mom said.
+
+"Maybe they will come back someday." Dad said.
+
+"Maybe." Ben and Lily said.
+
+They went home and had ice cream. They still missed their balloons, but they were happy too. They had each other.
+Sam and Lily love candy. They always want more candy. One day, they see a big jar of candy on the table. They run to the jar and try to open it.
+
+"Let me have some candy!" Sam says.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily says.
+
+They pull and push the jar. The jar falls and breaks. Candy spills on the floor. Sam and Lily smile. They race to pick up the candy.
+
+But the candy is not sweet. The candy is disgusting. It tastes like soap and dirt. Sam and Lily spit out the candy. They make faces.
+
+"Yuck! This is not candy!" Sam says.
+
+"This is gross!" Lily says.
+
+They look at the jar. The jar has a label. The label says: "Do not eat. This is fake candy for a prank."
+
+Sam and Lily feel sad and angry. They wish they had real candy. They hear a laugh. They turn around. They see their big brother Tom. Tom is holding a camera. He is the one who put the fake candy on the table.
+
+"Gotcha!" Tom says. "I tricked you!"
+
+Sam and Lily do not like Tom. They do not like his prank. They throw the fake candy at him. They chase him out of the room. They want to get him back. They want to prank him too.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park and read books together. One day, they found a big book of poems in the library. They opened it and saw many words and pictures.
+
+"Wow, this book is incredible!" Lily said. "I want to read a poem."
+
+"Me too!" Ben said. "But some words are hard. Do you know them?"
+
+Lily looked at the words and shook her head. "No, I don't. But we can try. I dare you to read a poem out loud."
+
+Ben felt scared. He did not want to make a mistake. But he also did not want to say no to Lily. He liked her and wanted to impress her. He picked a poem and started to read.
+
+He read slowly and carefully. He tried to sound out the words he did not know. He looked at the pictures for clues. He did his best.
+
+Lily listened and smiled. She was proud of Ben. He was brave and smart. She clapped her hands when he finished.
+
+"Good job, Ben!" she said. "You read a poem! You are incredible!"
+
+Ben felt happy. He did not make a mistake. He read a poem. He was incredible. He hugged Lily and thanked her.
+
+"Thank you, Lily!" he said. "You are incredible too! You dared me to read a poem. You are a good friend."
+
+They hugged and smiled. They learned a new thing. They had fun. They were happy.
+
+The moral of the story is: It is good to try new things and challenge yourself. You can learn and grow. You can also help and support your friends. You are incredible.
+Ben likes to draw with his crayons. He has many colors and he makes pictures of animals, cars, and houses. Sometimes he draws on paper, and sometimes he draws on the wall. Mother does not like when he draws on the wall. She says it is bad and he has to clean it.
+
+One day, Ben finds a new crayon. It is very big and thick. It is black and it makes dark marks. Ben thinks it is fun and he wants to try it. He goes to the wall and starts to draw a big bear. He makes the bear's eyes, nose, mouth, ears, and fur. He is happy with his bear.
+
+But then Mother sees the bear on the wall. She is angry and she shouts at Ben. She says he has to stop drawing on the wall and he has to wash it. She takes the thick crayon from his hand and puts it away. She gives him a sponge and a bucket of water. She tells him to scrub the wall until the bear is gone.
+
+Ben does not want to wash the wall. He likes his bear and he wants to keep it. He says no to Mother and he insists that the bear is good. He tries to get the thick crayon back, but Mother holds it tight. He cries and he kicks and he screams. He says he hates Mother and he hates the sponge.
+
+Mother is sad and she hugs Ben. She says she loves him and she does not hate him. She says she knows he likes to draw, but he has to follow the rules. She says he can draw on paper or on a board, but not on the wall. She says the wall is not for drawing, it is for looking. She says she will help him wash the wall and then they can draw together on paper. She says she is sorry for shouting and she asks him to say sorry too.
+
+Ben is still mad, but he feels sorry for Mother. He sees that she is not mean, she is just trying to teach him. He says sorry to Mother and he lets her help him wash the wall. He sees that the bear is fading and he feels a little sad. But then he thinks that he can draw another bear on paper, and maybe a lion and a tiger too. He smiles and he hugs Mother. He says he loves her and he likes to draw with her. Mother smiles and she hugs him back. She says she loves him and she likes to draw with him too. They go to the table and they find some paper and some crayons. They draw many animals and they have fun. Ben forgets about the thick crayon and the wall. He is happy with his mother and his pictures.
+Tom was a boy who liked to play outside. He liked to dig in the dirt, climb on the rocks, and chase the bugs. He did not like to wash his hands or take a bath. He said he was not dirty, he was just having fun.
+
+One day, Tom saw a big, red flower in the garden. He wanted to grab it and smell it. He ran to the flower and reached out his hand. But he did not see the bee that was on the flower. The bee was angry and stung Tom on his finger. Tom cried out and dropped the flower. His finger hurt and it was swollen.
+
+Tom ran to his mom and showed her his finger. His mom said, "Oh, poor Tom, you have a bee sting. We need to put some ice on it and some cream. And you need to wash your hands and take a bath. You are very dirty and you might get an itch."
+
+Tom did not want to wash his hands or take a bath. He said, "But mom, I don't have an itch. And I'm not dirty, I'm just having fun." His mom said, "Trust me, Tom, you will feel better if you do. And you can still have fun after you are clean. Now come on, let's go inside."
+
+Tom followed his mom and did what she said. He washed his hands and took a bath. He put some ice and cream on his finger. He felt better and his finger did not hurt so much. He also noticed that he did not have an itch. He said, "Thank you, mom, you were right. I feel better and I don't have an itch. And I guess I was a little dirty." His mom said, "You're welcome, Tom, I'm glad you feel better. And you can still play outside, but be careful of the bees. And remember to wash your hands and take a bath when you are done." Tom said, "OK, mom, I will. I love you." His mom said, "I love you too, Tom." And they hugged.
+Ben and Tom were best friends. They liked to play pirate in the park. They had a big hat, a wooden sword and a red scarf. They pretended to sail on a ship and look for treasure.
+
+One day, they saw a big slide in the park. It looked like a mountain. Ben said, "Let's climb the slide and pretend it's a pirate island. Maybe we can find some gold there." Tom nodded and followed Ben.
+
+They climbed the slide carefully. It was very high and steep. They reached the top and looked around. They saw some shiny coins on the ground. Ben said, "Look, Tom, we found the treasure. Let's get it and share it." Tom smiled and agreed.
+
+But then, they heard a loud voice behind them. It was a big boy with a mean face. He said, "Hey, you two, get off my slide. This is my treasure. I found it first. Go away or I'll make you." He had a metal sword and a black eye patch. He looked like a real pirate.
+
+Ben and Tom were scared. They did not want to fight the big boy. They wanted to run away. But the slide was too high and slippery. They had no way to go down. Ben said, "Tom, what do we do? We have to stick together. We are loyal friends." Tom nodded and said, "Yes, Ben, we are. We have to lean on each other and be brave."
+
+They leaned on each other and held their wooden swords. They hoped the big boy would leave them alone. But he did not. He came closer and closer. He raised his metal sword and swung it at them. He hit their wooden swords and broke them. He laughed and said, "Ha, ha, ha, you are no match for me. I am the king of the slide. You are just silly kids. Now give me the treasure and get off my slide."
+
+He grabbed the coins from the ground and pushed Ben and Tom off the slide. They fell down and hurt themselves. They cried and hugged each other. They felt sad and angry. They wished they never climbed the slide. They wished they never saw the treasure. They wished they never met the big boy. They wished they could play pirate in peace.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their dolls in the living room. They liked to pretend that their dolls were friends and had adventures together. Lily had a pink doll with long hair and a dress. Ben had a blue doll with short hair and a hat.
+
+"Let's go to the park with our dolls," Lily said. "We can have a picnic and play on the swings."
+
+"OK," Ben said. "But we have to be careful. There are some big dogs in the park. They might chase our dolls."
+
+They put their dolls in a basket and went outside. The sun was shining and the birds were singing. They walked to the park and found a nice spot under a tree. They spread a blanket on the grass and took out some sandwiches and juice. They gave some to their dolls and ate some themselves.
+
+"This is fun," Lily said. "Our dolls are happy too."
+
+They finished their picnic and packed their basket. They decided to go to the swings and have a turn. They left their basket under the tree and ran to the swings. They pushed each other and laughed.
+
+But they did not see the big dog that came to the park. The dog smelled the sandwiches in the basket and ran to it. He knocked over the basket and took out the dolls. He bit them and tore them with his teeth. He made holes in their clothes and pulled out their hair. He made a big mess.
+
+Lily and Ben heard the dog barking and turned around. They saw what he was doing to their dolls. They were very sad and angry. They screamed at the dog.
+
+"Stop it! Stop it! You are a bad dog! You are hurting our dolls!"
+
+The dog heard them and dropped the dolls. He ran away, wagging his tail. He did not care.
+
+Lily and Ben ran to their dolls. They picked them up and hugged them. They saw how damaged they were. They cried.
+
+"Our dolls are broken," Lily said. "They have holes and stitches and dirt. They are cold and sad."
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Ben said. "I'm sorry, blue doll. I wish we could fix you."
+
+They took their dolls and their basket and went back home. They told their mom what happened. Their mom was sorry too. She said she would try to fix their dolls. She said she loved them and their dolls. She gave them a hug and a kiss. She said they could have some cookies and milk.
+
+Lily and Ben felt a little better. They hoped their dolls would be OK. They said they would never leave them alone in the park again. They said they would always be careful of big dogs. They said they loved their dolls and each other.
+Lily and Max liked to play with their toy cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They pretended to drive them on the floor, making noises like vroom and beep. Sometimes they had races or crashes.
+
+One day, Lily found a small card in her dad's wallet. It had his name and picture on it. She showed it to Max. "What is this?" she asked.
+
+Max looked at the card. He had seen it before. "That is a license," he said. "You need it to drive a real car. It says you can do it."
+
+Lily was curious. She wanted to drive a real car too. She put the card in her pocket. "Let's go outside," she said to Max. "I have an idea."
+
+They went outside to the garage. Lily saw her dad's car. It was big and shiny. She opened the door and climbed in. She told Max to sit next to her. She put the card in the slot where the key goes. She turned it and the car started.
+
+"Wow!" Max said. "You are driving a car!"
+
+Lily smiled. She felt very grown-up. She pushed the pedals and the car moved. She turned the wheel and the car changed direction. She drove out of the garage and onto the street.
+
+"Look out!" Max shouted. "There are other cars!"
+
+Lily saw the other cars. They were honking and swerving. She was scared. She did not know how to stop. She pressed the pedals harder and the car went faster. She lost control and the car rolled over.
+
+CRASH!
+
+Lily and Max were upside down. They were hurt and crying. The card fell out of Lily's pocket. A policeman came and saw the card. He was angry and confused.
+
+"Who are you?" he asked. "Why do you have this license? This is very unusual."
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big barrel near the trees. It was brown and old. Lily wanted to look inside.
+
+"Maybe there is something fun in the barrel," she said to Ben.
+
+Ben was not sure. He thought the barrel looked scary. He saw some holes and cracks on it.
+
+"Maybe there is something bad in the barrel," he said to Lily. "It looks ancient. Maybe it has bugs or spiders or snakes."
+
+Lily was not afraid. She was curious. She walked to the barrel and peeked inside. She saw something shiny and round.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" she said. "It is a coin. It is gold and bright. Maybe it is a treasure."
+
+Ben came closer. He wanted to see the coin too. He reached his hand inside the barrel. He felt something soft and furry.
+
+"Yikes!" he said. "It is a rat. It is big and gray. It has sharp teeth and a long tail. It bit me."
+
+Lily and Ben ran away from the barrel. They were scared and hurt. They went to find their mom. She hugged them and gave them a band-aid and a cookie.
+
+"Next time, be careful with old barrels," she said. "You never know what is inside."
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. But sometimes they also liked to make trouble. One day, they found a big tube of red paint in the garage. They decided to use it to make funny pictures on the wall.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can draw a big smiley face!" Tom said, as he squeezed the paint on the wall.
+
+"And I can draw a flower!" Lily said, as she dipped her finger in the paint and made a circle with petals.
+
+They were having so much fun that they did not hear their mom coming home. She opened the door and saw the mess. She was very angry.
+
+"Tom! Lily! What have you done?" she shouted. "This is not how you behave! You have ruined the wall!"
+
+Tom and Lily dropped the paint and ran to hide behind the sofa. They knew they were in trouble. They felt guilty.
+
+"Sorry, mom," they said in a small voice.
+
+Mom sighed. She was not happy, but she loved her twins. She went to the sofa and looked at them. They had red paint on their hands, clothes and mouths.
+
+"Did you eat the paint?" she asked.
+
+Tom and Lily shook their heads. They did not eat the paint. They just touched it with their mouths.
+
+"That was not a good idea," mom said. "The paint is not for eating. It can make you sick. Come on, let's go to the bathroom and wash up."
+
+She took them by the hand and led them to the bathroom. She helped them clean their hands, clothes and mouths. Then she gave them a hug and a kiss.
+
+"I love you, Tom and Lily," she said. "But next time, please behave and do not play with the paint. OK?"
+
+"OK, mom," they said. "We love you too. And we are sorry."
+
+They learned their lesson. They never played with the paint again. They found other ways to have fun. And they tried to behave.
+Lily liked to count. She counted her fingers, her toes, her toys, and her books. She counted everything she saw. One day, she went to the farm with her mom and dad. She saw many animals there. She saw cows, pigs, sheep, and chickens. She counted them all.
+
+"Look, mom, there are four cows, six pigs, eight sheep, and ten chickens!" she said.
+
+"Very good, Lily, you are a smart girl!" her mom said.
+
+Lily saw a big animal in the barn. It had four legs, a long tail, and a mane. It was a horse. Lily wanted to count the horse, too. She walked to the barn, but the horse was shy. It hid behind the hay.
+
+"Hello, horse, can I count you?" Lily asked.
+
+The horse did not answer. It was afraid of Lily. Lily was sad. She liked the horse. She wanted to be its friend.
+
+She had an idea. She picked some apples from a tree. She held them in her hand. She walked slowly to the barn. She smiled at the horse.
+
+"Look, horse, I have some apples for you. Do you like apples?" she said.
+
+The horse smelled the apples. It liked apples. It came out of the hay. It took an apple from Lily's hand. It ate it. It was yummy.
+
+"Thank you, horse, you are very nice!" Lily said.
+
+The horse nuzzled Lily's cheek. It was not shy anymore. It liked Lily. Lily was happy. She counted the horse.
+
+"One horse!" she said.
+
+The horse neighed. It was happy, too. Lily and the horse became friends. They played together. Lily counted the horse many times. The horse counted Lily, too. They had fun.
+Lily liked to draw. She had many colors and papers. She wanted to make a picture for her mom. She worked hard on her picture. She drew a big sun, a blue sky, a green tree and a red house. She used all her colors.
+
+But when she finished, she saw a problem. Her picture was too big. It did not fit in her mom's bag. She tried to fold it, but it ripped. She tried to roll it, but it wrinkled. She felt sad. She wanted to give her picture to her mom.
+
+She thought hard. She looked around. She saw her dad's scissors. She had an idea. She cut her picture into four pieces. She put them together like a puzzle. She taped them on a soft cardboard. She made a frame with some ribbon. She wrote "I love you, Mom" on the bottom.
+
+She smiled. She was happy. She succeeded. She made a beautiful gift for her mom. She ran to her mom and hugged her. She gave her the picture. Her mom was surprised and happy. She kissed Lily and thanked her. She said it was the best picture ever. Lily felt proud. She loved her mom.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a new boy. He is big and has a red hat. He looks sad.
+
+"Hi, I am Lily. This is Tom. What is your name?" Lily says.
+
+The boy does not say anything. He looks at the ground.
+
+"Can we play with you?" Tom asks.
+
+The boy shakes his head. He holds a toy car in his hand.
+
+Lily and Tom want to make the boy happy. They have an idea.
+
+"Look, we have a ball. Do you like to kick the ball?" Lily says.
+
+She throws the ball to the boy. The boy catches it. He smiles a little.
+
+"Yes, I like to kick the ball. Thank you." He says.
+
+He kicks the ball to Tom. Tom kicks it back. They take turns kicking the ball.
+
+Lily claps her hands. She is glad.
+
+"Yay, we are having fun!" She says.
+
+The boy nods. He is glad too.
+
+"My name is Sam. I am new here. I have no friends." He says.
+
+Lily and Tom hold his hand. They are strong.
+
+"You have friends now. We are your friends. We welcome you." They say.
+
+Sam feels warm. He hugs them.
+
+"Thank you. You are nice. You are my friends." He says.
+
+They play together until it is time to go home. They say goodbye and promise to play again. They are happy.
+Tom and Sam were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a thin man with a big bag. The man looked angry and scared.
+
+"Let's go see what he has in his bag," Tom said. He was curious and brave.
+
+"No, Tom, he might be bad. Let's stay away," Sam said. He was careful and afraid.
+
+But Tom did not listen. He ran to the man and pulled his bag. The man shouted and grabbed a gun from his bag. He pointed it at Tom and Sam.
+
+"Give me back my bag, you little rats! Or I will shoot you!" the man said. He was mean and crazy.
+
+Tom and Sam were very scared. They tried to run away, but it was too late. The man pulled the trigger and a loud bang made them fall. They did not get up. They did not move. They did not blink. They were dead.
+
+The man took his bag and ran away. He did not care. He was a robber and a killer. He had stolen the money from a bank and shot the guard.
+
+The park was quiet and sad. No one played there anymore. Tom and Sam were gone. Their parents cried and missed them. They wished they had listened to Sam and stayed away from the thin man with the gun.
+Sara and Ben were eager to go on the yacht with their dad. They had never been on a big boat before. They packed their bags with toys, books and snacks. They put on their hats and sunscreen.
+
+"Are you ready, kids?" Dad asked, holding the keys to the yacht.
+
+"Yes, yes, yes!" Sara and Ben shouted, jumping up and down.
+
+They followed Dad to the dock, where the yacht was waiting. It was white and shiny, with a big sail and a flag. Dad helped them climb on board and showed them around. There was a cabin, a kitchen, a bathroom and a deck.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing!" Sara said, looking at the water.
+
+"Can we play pirates?" Ben asked, holding a toy sword.
+
+"Sure, but be careful, okay?" Dad said, smiling. "I'll be the captain and you can be my crew. We'll sail to a treasure island and perform a show for the animals there."
+
+"Yay!" Sara and Ben cheered, putting on their pirate hats and eye patches.
+
+They sailed for a while, enjoying the breeze and the waves. They saw dolphins, seagulls and fish. They sang pirate songs and told jokes. They pretended to fight with other boats and find gold coins.
+
+Soon, they reached a small island with palm trees and sand. Dad anchored the yacht and helped them get off. They carried their toys and snacks to the shore.
+
+"Look, there's a monkey!" Sara pointed, seeing a furry animal on a branch.
+
+"Hello, monkey!" Ben said, waving his sword. "Do you want to see our show?"
+
+The monkey made a noise and jumped down. It was curious and friendly. It followed Sara and Ben to a spot where they set up their stage. They used a blanket, some sticks and some shells.
+
+"Welcome to our pirate show!" Sara announced, holding a toy microphone. "We are the most fearsome pirates in the world, and we have a lot of fun. Watch us perform our tricks and skills!"
+
+Sara and Ben performed for the monkey and the other animals that came to watch. They danced, sang, juggled, balanced and did magic. They made the animals laugh and clap. They shared their snacks and toys with them.
+
+Dad watched from the yacht, proud and happy. He took pictures and videos of his kids. He thought they were the best performers in the world. He loved them very much.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw an old man with a cane walking slowly on the path. He looked sad and tired.
+
+"Hello, sir," Lily said. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The old man smiled and nodded. He sat on a bench and watched Lily and Ben run and jump on the grass. They threw a ball, flew a kite, and made funny faces.
+
+"You are very brave and happy," the old man said. "When I was young, I was like you. But then I got sick and had to use a cane. I can't play anymore."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for the old man. They wanted to make him feel better.
+
+"Maybe you can change," Ben said. "Maybe you can do something else that you like."
+
+"Like what?" the old man asked.
+
+"Like reading a book, or singing a song, or drawing a picture," Lily said. "We can help you. We have a book, and a song, and a crayon."
+
+Lily and Ben gave the old man their book, their song, and their crayon. The old man read the book, sang the song, and drew a picture. He felt happy and grateful.
+
+"Thank you, Lily and Ben," the old man said. "You are very kind and smart. You have changed my day. You have made me smile."
+
+Lily and Ben hugged the old man. They were glad they had made a new friend. They learned that change can be good, and that brave can mean different things.
+Tom and Lily went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and giraffes. But their favorite was the otter. The otter was brown and furry, and it liked to swim and play in the water.
+
+"Look, mom, the otter is reversing!" Tom said, pointing at the otter. The otter was swimming backwards, with its tail in front and its head behind. It looked funny and clever.
+
+"Why is it reversing, mom?" Lily asked, curious.
+
+"Maybe it is looking for something, or having fun, or showing off," mom said, smiling. "Otters are very smart and playful animals. They can do many things in the water."
+
+Tom and Lily wanted to play with the otter. They ran to the fence and waved their hands. The otter saw them and swam closer. It made a squeaky noise and splashed water with its tail.
+
+"Hi, otter!" Tom and Lily said, laughing. "You are so cool and cute!"
+
+The otter seemed to like them too. It nodded its head and reversed again. Then it picked up a heavy rock with its paws and carried it to the fence. It dropped the rock on the ground and looked at Tom and Lily.
+
+"What is that, mom?" Tom asked, surprised.
+
+"That is a gift, Tom," mom said, proud. "The otter is sharing something with you. It is a sign of friendship. Otters use rocks to crack open shells and eat the food inside. They are very good at using tools."
+
+"Wow, thank you, otter!" Tom and Lily said, happy. They picked up the rock and held it in their hands. It was smooth and shiny. They felt a special bond with the otter.
+
+The otter smiled and winked at them. It reversed one more time and swam away. Tom and Lily waved goodbye and thanked the otter again. They put the rock in their backpack and decided to keep it as a souvenir. They had made a new friend at the zoo.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a blue doll that she liked very much. Tom had a red car that he liked very much. They were happy and quiet.
+
+But then, Mom came in with a baby. She said, "Look, this is your new sister, Anna. She is very small and cute. You have to be nice to her and share your toys with her."
+
+Lily and Tom looked at the baby. She was sleeping in Mom's arms. She had a pink blanket and a yellow hat. She did not look like them.
+
+Lily said, "I don't want a sister. I want to play with my blue doll. She is mine."
+
+Tom said, "I don't want a sister. I want to play with my red car. It is mine."
+
+Mom said, "Lily and Tom, you are being selfish. Anna is your sister and you have to love her and share with her. She is part of our family. You can play with your toys, but you have to let her play too, when she wakes up."
+
+Lily and Tom did not listen to Mom. They turned away and hugged their toys. They did not want to share. They did not want to love.
+
+But then, Anna woke up. She opened her eyes and saw the toys. She reached out her hand and grabbed the blue doll. She smiled and made a sound.
+
+Lily saw Anna with her doll. She got angry and shouted, "No! That is my doll! Give it back to me!"
+
+She ran to Anna and tried to take the doll from her. Anna did not let go. She cried and held the doll tighter.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came back. She saw Lily and Anna fighting over the doll. She said, "Lily, stop! You are disturbing Anna. She is just a baby. She does not know. You have to be gentle and kind to her. You have to share your doll with her. She likes it too."
+
+Lily did not want to share. She said, "No! It is my doll! I don't like her. She is not my sister. She is a thief!"
+
+Mom was sad and angry. She said, "Lily, that is not true. She is your sister and she is not a thief. She is just curious and playful. You are being selfish and mean. You have to apologize to her and give her a hug. You have to learn to share and love."
+
+Lily did not want to apologize. She did not want to hug. She did not want to learn. She wanted her doll. She wanted to be alone.
+
+But then, Tom came over. He saw Lily and Anna and Mom. He felt sorry for them. He said, "Lily, don't be selfish. Anna is our sister and we have to love her and share with her. She is not a thief. She is a baby. She needs us. Look, I will share my red car with her. Maybe she will like it too."
+
+He gave his red car to Anna. Anna let go of the blue doll and took the red car. She smiled and made another sound.
+
+Lily saw Tom and Anna and Mom. She felt ashamed and sorry. She said, "Tom, you are right. I was selfish and mean. I am sorry, Anna. I love you and I will share my blue doll with you. Maybe you will like it too."
+
+She gave her blue doll to Anna. Anna took the blue doll and the red car. She smiled and made a third sound.
+
+Mom saw Lily and Tom and Anna. She felt happy and proud. She said, "Lily and Tom, you are good children. You are loving and sharing. You are a good sister and a good brother. I love you and I am proud of you."
+
+She gave them a hug and a kiss. They hugged and kissed her back. They hugged and kissed Anna too. They were happy and quiet. They were a family.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the kitchen with their mom. One day, mom gives them a big bowl of popcorn. She says, "You can add some salt if you want, but not too much."
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They love popcorn. They take turns to sprinkle some salt on the popcorn. They say, "Thank you, mom!"
+
+But then, Ben has an idea. He says, "Anna, do you want to see a magic trick?" Anna nods. She likes magic tricks. Ben says, "Watch this. I will make the salt disappear!"
+
+Ben takes a big handful of salt and throws it in the air. He says, "Abracadabra!" The salt flies everywhere. Some of it lands on the popcorn, some of it lands on the floor, some of it lands on their faces.
+
+Anna and Ben laugh. They think it is funny. But mom is not happy. She says, "Ben, what did you do? You made a big mess! You wasted the salt! You have to clean it up!"
+
+Ben is sorry. He says, "I'm sorry, mom. I just wanted to show Anna a magic trick. I didn't mean to make a mess."
+
+Mom says, "It's okay, Ben. I know you were trying to have fun. But next time, please ask me before you use the salt. And be careful with it. Salt is not for magic, it is for food."
+
+Anna and Ben say, "Okay, mom. We're sorry, too." They help mom to clean up the mess. They still have some popcorn left. They share it with mom. They say, "We love you, mom."
+
+Mom says, "I love you, too, Anna and Ben. You are my sweet twins." They hug and kiss. They are happy. They forget about the salt.
+Mia and Leo were twins who liked to play in the forest. They had a friend who was an owl. His name was Ollie. Ollie was very wise and kind. He taught Mia and Leo many things about the forest and the animals.
+
+One day, Mia and Leo wanted to see Ollie's nest. They asked Ollie if they could visit him. Ollie said yes, but he warned them to be careful. His nest was very high in a big tree. It was also very delicate. It was made of sticks and feathers and leaves.
+
+Mia and Leo climbed the tree with Ollie's help. They were very excited to see his nest. But when they got there, they saw that it was very small and cozy. There was not much room for them. Mia wanted to touch the feathers and the leaves. Leo wanted to see the eggs that Ollie had. Ollie told them to behave. He said that they could look, but not touch. He said that his nest and his eggs were very precious to him.
+
+But Mia and Leo did not listen. They were too curious. Mia reached for a feather and pulled it. Leo poked an egg with his finger. Ollie was very angry. He hooted loudly and flapped his wings. He said that they were very naughty and rude. He said that they had to leave his nest right now.
+
+Mia and Leo were scared and sorry. They had hurt Ollie's feelings and his nest. They apologized to Ollie and said that they would never do it again. They climbed down the tree with Ollie's help. They hugged Ollie and said that they were still his friends. Ollie forgave them and said that he was still their friend. He said that he hoped that they had learned their lesson. He said that they should always respect other people's things and be gentle with them. Mia and Leo nodded and said that they had. They thanked Ollie for letting them see his nest and for teaching them something new. They said goodbye to Ollie and went back to their home. They promised to behave better next time.
+Ben and Sam were brothers who liked to play with their dog Spot. Spot was a big and friendly dog who loved to run and jump and fetch. One day, Ben and Sam found a ball in the park and decided to play with it. They threw the ball and Spot ran after it and brought it back.
+
+"Spot is so good at this game!" Ben said.
+
+"Yes, he is. He is the best dog ever!" Sam said.
+
+They played for a long time, until they saw a man walking by with a smaller dog. The man had a leash and a collar for his dog, but Ben and Sam did not have one for Spot.
+
+"Look at that silly dog!" Ben said. "He has to wear a leash and a collar. He cannot run and jump and fetch like Spot can."
+
+"Yes, he is a foolish dog!" Sam said. "He does not have any fun. Spot is much happier and smarter than him."
+
+They laughed and threw the ball again. But this time, Spot did not bring it back. He saw the smaller dog and ran towards him. He wanted to say hello and play with him. He did not see the big road with the cars and the trucks and the buses. He did not hear Ben and Sam calling his name.
+
+"Spot, come back!" Ben shouted.
+
+"Spot, stop!" Sam cried.
+
+But it was too late. Spot ran across the road and a car hit him. He yelped and fell to the ground. Ben and Sam ran after him, but they could not help him. He was hurt and bleeding and not moving.
+
+The man with the smaller dog came over and looked at Spot. He shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, boys. Your dog is gone. He should have worn a leash and a collar. It would have kept him safe."
+
+Ben and Sam felt very sad and sorry. They wished they had not laughed at the smaller dog. They wished they had not been foolish. They wished they had kept Spot close to them. They learned a hard lesson that day. They learned to be careful and kind and not to judge others. They learned to love and appreciate what they had. They learned to miss Spot every day.
+Lila and Ben were playing with paint in the garden. They had a big paper and many colors. They wanted to make a picture of a rainbow.
+
+"Look, I can make red and orange and yellow," Lila said, dipping her brush in the paint.
+
+"I can make green and blue and purple," Ben said, doing the same.
+
+They painted the paper with bright colors, making a big arc. They were happy and proud of their work.
+
+But then, a big wind came and blew the paper away. It flew over the fence and into the street. Lila and Ben ran after it, but they could not catch it. They felt sad and helpless.
+
+"Where is our rainbow?" Lila cried.
+
+"Maybe someone will find it and give it back to us," Ben said.
+
+They looked around, hoping to see their paper. But they only saw cars and people and buildings.
+
+Then, they saw a man walking with a dog. The dog had something in his mouth. It was their paper!
+
+"Hey, that's our rainbow!" Lila shouted.
+
+The man and the dog stopped and looked at them. The man smiled and said, "Is this yours? I'm sorry, my dog found it on the ground and thought it was a toy. He likes colorful things."
+
+He took the paper from the dog's mouth and gave it to Lila and Ben. The paper was a bit torn and dirty, but the colors were still bright.
+
+"Thank you, mister," Lila and Ben said.
+
+"You're welcome, kids. You made a beautiful rainbow. Can I keep a piece of it for my dog? He really likes it."
+
+Lila and Ben nodded. They tore off a small piece of the paper and gave it to the man. The dog wagged his tail and licked their hands.
+
+"Thank you, kids. You are very kind. Come on, boy, let's go home," the man said.
+
+He and the dog walked away, leaving Lila and Ben with their paper.
+
+Lila and Ben looked at each other and smiled. They were happy again. They learned that sometimes things can go wrong, but they can also go right. They learned that sharing can make others happy, too. They learned that a rainbow can bring joy to anyone who sees it.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to observe the birds, the flowers and the people. They saw a man with a big bike. He had no hair on his head. He was bald.
+
+"Look, Lily, a bald man!" Ben said.
+
+"What is bald?" Lily asked.
+
+"Bald means no hair. Like this." Ben rubbed his hand on his head.
+
+"Why does he have no hair?" Lily wondered.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe he likes it. Or maybe he lost it." Ben guessed.
+
+The man parked his bike near a tree. He took out a lock and a key. He put the lock around the bike and the tree. He turned the key and took it out.
+
+"What is he doing?" Lily asked.
+
+"He is locking his bike. So no one can take it." Ben explained.
+
+"What is a lock?" Lily asked.
+
+"A lock is a thing that keeps something safe. You need a key to open it. Like this." Ben showed Lily his toy car with a lock and a key.
+
+"Can I try?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure. Here." Ben gave Lily the toy car, the lock and the key.
+
+Lily put the lock around the car and the tree. She turned the key and took it out. She smiled.
+
+"I locked the car!" She said.
+
+"Good job, Lily!" Ben said.
+
+They heard a voice.
+
+"Hey, kids, what are you doing with my bike?" It was the bald man.
+
+They looked at him. They were scared.
+
+"Sorry, mister, we were just playing." Ben said.
+
+"We have a car, too. See?" Lily said.
+
+They showed him the toy car, the lock and the key.
+
+The bald man smiled.
+
+"That's a nice car. And a nice lock. But you know, you shouldn't touch other people's things without asking. It's not polite." He said.
+
+"Sorry, mister. We didn't know." Ben said.
+
+"It's okay. I forgive you. Just be careful next time. And have fun." He said.
+
+He unlocked his bike and rode away.
+
+Ben and Lily waved at him.
+
+"Bye, mister!" They said.
+
+They learned a new word and a new lesson. They continued to play and observe.
+Anna and Ben are friends who like to play in the park. One day, they see a shiny thing in the grass. It is a jewel. They pick it up and look at it. It is very pretty and sparkly.
+
+They wonder who lost the jewel. They think maybe someone is sad and looking for it. They decide to be helpful and find the owner. They ask the people in the park if they know who the jewel belongs to. But no one does.
+
+Then, they see a lady who is crying on a bench. She has a necklace in her hand, but it is broken. Some of the jewels are missing. Anna and Ben go to her and show her the jewel they found. The lady is very happy. She says it is one of her jewels that fell off her necklace. She thanks Anna and Ben for being so kind and honest.
+
+Anna and Ben are glad they made the lady smile. They learn that it is good to be helpful and return things that are not theirs. They give the lady a hug and go back to play. They feel proud and happy. The end.
+Tom and Mia are playing in the garden. They have a big tub of water and some toys. They like to splash and make bubbles. Tom has a boat and Mia has a duck.
+
+"Look, my boat can go fast!" Tom says. He pushes his boat hard and it zooms across the water.
+
+"Wow, that's cool!" Mia says. She tries to make her duck go fast too, but it just floats. She sees a big rock on the ground. She has an idea. "I know, I can make my duck heavier!"
+
+She picks up the rock and puts it on her duck. The duck sinks to the bottom of the tub. Mia laughs. "Now my duck is heavy!"
+
+Tom looks at Mia's duck. He thinks it is funny, but he also feels sorry for the duck. He says, "But Mia, your duck can't swim now. It will be sad and wet and smelly."
+
+Mia thinks for a moment. She loves her duck. She doesn't want it to be sad and wet and smelly. She says, "You're right, Tom. I don't want my duck to be heavy. I want it to be happy and dry and clean."
+
+She takes the rock off her duck and lifts it out of the water. She hugs it and dries it with a towel. She says, "Sorry, duck. I won't soak you again."
+
+Tom smiles. He says, "That's okay, Mia. We can still play together. Do you want to share my boat?"
+
+Mia nods. She says, "Yes, please. That would be fun."
+
+They put the boat and the duck in the water and play together. They are happy and dry and clean.
+Sam and Mia love to play with their toy instruments. They have a drum, a guitar, a piano and a trumpet. They like to make loud noises and pretend they are in a band. They call their band "The Jazz Cats".
+
+One day, they decide to put on a show for their mom and dad. They set up their instruments in the living room and make a sign that says "The Jazz Cats Display". They wear funny hats and sunglasses and practice their songs.
+
+"Are you ready, Mia?" Sam asks, holding his trumpet.
+
+"Yes, Sam, I'm ready!" Mia answers, sitting at the piano.
+
+They start to play their music, banging, strumming, tinkling and blowing. They sing along with silly words and make funny faces. They have a lot of fun.
+
+Mom and dad come home from work and see the sign. They are curious and excited. They open the door and see Sam and Mia playing their music. They smile and clap.
+
+"Wow, what a great display!" mom says. "You are amazing jazz cats!"
+
+"Thank you, thank you!" Sam and Mia say, bowing.
+
+They hug their mom and dad and invite them to join their band. They give them the drum and the guitar and play some more songs. The living room is full of noise and joy. It is not empty at all.
+Lila and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a boat. The boat is small and red. They want to sail the boat in the pond.
+
+They go to the pond. They put the boat in the water. They push the boat. The boat sails. They clap their hands. They are happy.
+
+But then the wind blows. The wind is strong. The boat goes fast. The boat goes away. They can't see the boat. They are sad.
+
+"Where is our boat?" Lila asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is behind the bush." Tom says.
+
+They run to the bush. They look behind the bush. They see the boat. The boat is on the grass. The boat is smooth. The boat is not wet. The boat is not broken.
+
+They pick up the boat. They hug the boat. They are happy again.
+
+"Let's sail the boat again. But not in the pond. In the tub." Lila says.
+
+"OK. That is a good idea. The tub is safe. The tub is fun." Tom says.
+
+They go home. They fill the tub with water. They sail the boat in the tub. They splash and laugh. They have fun. They are friends.
+Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big motorcycle parked on the street. It was shiny and loud and had a lot of buttons and lights. Tim and Kim wanted to touch it and see how it worked.
+
+"Let's go and look at the motorcycle," Tim said to Kim. "Maybe we can ride it."
+
+"No, Tim, that's not a good idea," Kim said. "The motorcycle is not ours. It belongs to someone else. They might get angry if we touch it."
+
+But Tim did not listen to Kim. He was curious and foolish. He ran to the motorcycle and climbed on it. He pushed some buttons and turned some knobs. He did not know what he was doing.
+
+Suddenly, the motorcycle started to make a loud noise. It moved forward and backward. It shook and spun. Tim was scared and screamed. He wanted to get off, but he did not know how.
+
+Kim heard Tim's scream and ran to help him. She saw the motorcycle moving wildly. She was worried and brave. She grabbed Tim's hand and pulled him off the motorcycle. They fell to the ground and rolled away.
+
+The noise of the motorcycle attracted a lot of people. They came to see what was going on. They saw the motorcycle spinning and smoking. They saw Tim and Kim lying on the ground. They were shocked and angry.
+
+The owner of the motorcycle came out of his house. He saw his motorcycle damaged and dirty. He saw Tim and Kim crying and hurt. He was furious and sad.
+
+"Who did this to my motorcycle?" he shouted. "Who was so foolish and rude?"
+
+Tim and Kim looked at him with fear and shame. They knew they had done something wrong. They knew they had to say sorry.
+
+"We did it," Tim said in a small voice. "We were curious and foolish. We wanted to play with your motorcycle. We did not mean to break it. We are very sorry."
+
+The owner of the motorcycle looked at them with sternness and pity. He saw that they were young and foolish. He saw that they were sorry and scared. He decided to be kind and fair.
+
+"I'm glad you are honest and sorry," he said. "But you should never touch other people's things without permission. You could have hurt yourself or others. You could have caused a lot of trouble. You should be more careful and respectful."
+
+Tim and Kim nodded and said sorry again. They learned their lesson. They never touched other people's motorcycles again. They were more careful and respectful. They were surprised by the consequences of their actions. They were grateful for the owner's kindness. They were wiser and happier.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom. One day, they see a big truck with a loud noise. It is a fire truck. It goes very fast and has red and blue lights.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Ben says. He points at the fire truck.
+
+"I want to see where it goes," Lily says. She runs after the fire truck.
+
+"No, Lily, wait!" Ben says. He runs after her.
+
+Mom sees them and gets scared. She calls their names and follows them.
+
+The fire truck stops at a house. There is smoke and fire. Some people come out of the house. They look sad and scared. Some police come too. They wear blue and have badges. They talk to the people and help them.
+
+Ben and Lily watch the fire truck and the police. They are curious and excited. They forget about mom.
+
+Mom finds them and hugs them. She is angry and worried.
+
+"Ben, Lily, what are you doing? You can't run away like that. It is dangerous. You could get hurt or lost. You have to stay with me," mom says.
+
+"Sorry, mom. We wanted to see the fire truck and the police. They are cool," Ben says.
+
+"Sorry, mom. We didn't mean to scare you. We were just curious," Lily says.
+
+Mom sighs. She is still angry, but she loves them. She takes their hands and walks them back to the park.
+
+"It is okay to be curious, but you have to be careful. The fire truck and the police are here to help people, not to play with. You can watch them from a safe distance, but you can't follow them. Do you understand?" mom says.
+
+"Yes, mom. We understand," Ben and Lily say.
+
+They go back to the park. They play on the swings and the slide. They have fun. They are happy. The weather is mild. It is not too hot or too cold. It is a good day.
+Tim and Sam love to play baseball. They have a small bat and a ball. They go to the park with their mom. Mom sits on a bench and watches them.
+
+"Can I hit the ball first?" Tim asks.
+
+"OK, but I want to hit it next," Sam says.
+
+Tim holds the bat and waits for Sam to throw the ball. Sam throws the ball very hard. Tim swings the bat, but he misses the ball.
+
+"Oops, try again," Sam says.
+
+Sam throws the ball again. Tim swings the bat again, but he misses the ball again.
+
+"Too bad, you are out," Sam says.
+
+Tim feels sad. He gives the bat to Sam and takes the ball.
+
+"Now it is my turn," Sam says.
+
+Sam holds the bat and smiles. Tim throws the ball very softly. Sam swings the bat and hits the ball. The ball flies far away.
+
+"Wow, you did it!" Tim says.
+
+Sam feels happy. He runs to get the ball.
+
+"Thank you for throwing the ball nicely," Sam says.
+
+Tim smiles. He is happy for his brother.
+

+
+"Yuck, Sam, why did you wish for that?" Mia asked.
+

They are so colorful and orderly. You are very good at numbering. Ben, I love your drawings. They are so creative and lively. You are very good at drawing."
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They felt ashamed. They realized they were rude and mean. They said, "We are sorry, Miss Rose. We are sorry, Lily. We are sorry, Ben. We should not say bad things about each other's work. We should respect and appreciate each other's work. We can learn from each other. We can share and help each other."
+
+Miss Rose nodded and said, "That's right, children. You are both talented and unique. You have different skills and interests. You can be proud of your work, but you should also be kind and humble. You can be friends and have fun together. You can make each other better."
+
+Lily and Ben hugged and said, "Thank you, Miss Rose. You are a famous teacher. You are very wise and nice. We are happy to have you. We are happy to have each other. We are happy to number and draw together."
+Ben and Mia were twins who liked to play with blocks. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes. They could make cars, trains, houses, and anything they wanted with their blocks.
+
+One day, they decided to make a big building with all their blocks. They worked hard and stacked the blocks high and wide. They made windows, doors, and a roof. They were very proud of their building.
+
+"Look, Mommy, look!" Ben shouted. "We made a building!"
+
+Mommy came to see their building. She smiled and clapped her hands. "Wow, what a charming building!" she said. "You are very clever, Ben and Mia. I love your building."
+
+"Thank you, Mommy," Mia said. "Can we keep it here?"
+
+Mommy nodded. "Of course, you can. But you have to be careful not to knock it down. It might fall and hurt you or break your blocks."
+
+Ben and Mia agreed. They wanted to keep their building safe and nice. They decided to settle their toys around their building. They put their cars, trains, dolls, and animals near the building. They pretended they were the people and animals who lived in the building.
+
+They had a lot of fun playing with their building and their toys. They were happy and cozy. They felt like they had their own little town.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play outside in the sun. They are healthy and strong. They have a big yard with a swing, a slide and a seesaw.
+
+One day, they find a new toy in the yard. It is a spring. It is long and shiny and bouncy. Sara and Ben want to try it.
+
+"Look, Ben, a spring!" Sara says. "Let's play with it!"
+
+"OK, Sara, but be careful. It might be hard to balance on it," Ben says.
+
+They take turns to stand on the spring. They try to bounce up and down without falling. It is fun, but also tricky. Sara goes first. She balances on the spring for a few seconds, then she wobbles and falls on the grass. She laughs.
+
+"Your turn, Ben!" she says.
+
+Ben stands on the spring. He balances better than Sara. He bounces higher and higher. He feels like a bird. He smiles.
+
+"I can do it, Sara! I can balance on the spring!" he says.
+
+But then, the spring slips from under his feet. He flies in the air and lands on the swing. He is not hurt, but he is surprised.
+
+"Wow, Ben, that was a big jump!" Sara says.
+
+They both giggle. They hug each other. They are happy. They love their new toy. They love their yard. They love to play.
+Mia and Leo were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. They were very happy and enthusiastic.
+
+Suddenly, they saw a big kangaroo hopping near the trees. They had never seen a kangaroo before. They were curious and excited. They wanted to see it closer.
+
+"Look, Leo, a kangaroo!" Mia said. "Let's go and say hello!"
+
+"OK, Mia, but be careful. Kangaroos can be fast and strong." Leo said.
+
+They ran towards the kangaroo with their ball. The kangaroo saw them and stopped. It looked at them with big eyes. It was not afraid, but it was not friendly either.
+
+"Hello, kangaroo!" Mia said. "We are Mia and Leo. Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The kangaroo did not answer. It did not understand them. It did not want to play with them. It wanted to be alone. It picked up their ball with its paws and threw it away. Then it hopped away.
+
+"Hey, that's our ball!" Leo said. "Why did you do that, kangaroo?"
+
+Mia and Leo were sad and angry. They ran after their ball. They did not like the kangaroo anymore. They thought it was mean and rude.
+
+They found their ball near a bench. They picked it up and hugged it. They decided to play somewhere else, away from the kangaroo.
+
+"Bye, kangaroo!" Mia said. "We don't want to see you again!"
+
+"Bye, kangaroo!" Leo said. "You are not nice!"
+Lily was a little girl who liked to draw. She enjoyed making pictures of animals, flowers and stars. She used crayons, pencils and markers to color her drawings. Sometimes she drew on paper, sometimes on cardboard, and sometimes on napkins.
+
+One day, Lily was drawing on a napkin at the table. She was making a big rainbow with many colors. She was so happy and proud of her work. She wanted to show it to her mom and dad. But she did not see that her brother Ben was watching her. Ben was older than Lily and he thought he was smarter and better. He was ignorant and mean. He did not like Lily's drawings. He thought they were silly and childish.
+
+When Lily went to the kitchen to get a glass of water, Ben grabbed her napkin and tore it into pieces. He threw the pieces in the trash. He thought it was funny. He did not care that he hurt Lily's feelings. He did not care that he wasted a napkin.
+
+When Lily came back, she saw what Ben had done. She was very sad and angry. She cried and screamed. She ran to her mom and dad and told them what happened. Mom and dad were very upset. They scolded Ben and made him apologize to Lily. They also made him give Lily a new napkin and some stickers to decorate it. They told him that he should not be ignorant and mean. He should respect Lily's drawings and feelings. He should be kind and helpful.
+
+Lily accepted Ben's apology and thanked him for the new napkin and stickers. She made a new rainbow and added some hearts and stars. She enjoyed drawing again. She also learned to be careful with her napkins and to keep them away from Ben. She hoped that Ben would learn to be nice and to enjoy drawing too. She hoped that they could be friends and share their pictures. She knew that drawing was fun and that napkins were precious.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the backyard. They had a big bucket of water and a shovel. They wanted to make a pond for their toy ducks.
+
+"Look, Lily, I dug a hole!" Tom said, showing his sister his work.
+
+"Good job, Tom! Now we need to fill it with water," Lily said. She ran to the faucet and turned it on. She carried the bucket to the hole and poured some water in.
+
+"More, more!" Tom said, clapping his hands. He liked to see the water splash.
+
+Lily ran back and forth, bringing more water. She was having fun, but she was also getting tired. She felt dizzy from running so much.
+
+"Tom, I need a break," she said, putting down the bucket. She sat on the grass and closed her eyes.
+
+Tom saw that Lily was not moving. He thought she was playing a game. He decided to surprise her. He took the shovel and scooped some dirt. He walked quietly to Lily and dumped the dirt on her head.
+
+"Lily, I bury you!" he said, laughing.
+
+Lily opened her eyes and felt the dirt on her hair and face. She was not happy. She jumped up and shook off the dirt. She glared at Tom.
+
+"Tom, that's not nice! You made me dirty!" she said, frowning.
+
+Tom saw that Lily was angry. He felt sorry. He did not mean to make her mad. He wanted to make her laugh.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I was just joking. Do you want to play with the ducks?" he said, holding out a toy duck.
+
+Lily looked at the duck. She liked ducks. She calmed down a bit. She took the duck from Tom.
+
+"Okay, Tom. But no more burying, okay?" she said.
+
+"Okay, Lily. No more burying. Just ducks," Tom said.
+
+They hugged and went to the pond. They played with the ducks and forgot about the dirt. They were happy again.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to go to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They see many animals at the zoo. They see lions, monkeys, elephants, and more. They have fun at the zoo.
+
+One day, they go to the zoo again. They want to see the snakes. Mom and Dad say snakes are not scary. They are just different. Anna and Ben are curious. They follow Mom and Dad to the snake house.
+
+Inside the snake house, they see many snakes. Some are big, some are small. Some are green, some are brown. Some are on the ground, some are in the trees. Anna and Ben look at the snakes. They are not scared. They are brave.
+
+But then, they hear a loud hiss. They turn around and see a big snake. The snake is angry. It has escaped from its cage. It is looking at Anna and Ben. It is ready to attack. Anna and Ben are scared. They scream.
+
+Mom and Dad hear them scream. They run to them. They see the big snake. They are scared too. But they are also reliable. They protect Anna and Ben. They grab them and run away. They call for help. The zoo workers come. They catch the big snake. They put it back in its cage. They say sorry to Anna and Ben. They say the snake is not dangerous. It is just scared too.
+
+Anna and Ben are safe. They hug Mom and Dad. They say thank you to the zoo workers. They are not angry at the snake. They are just glad it is over. They decide to see other animals. They do not want to see snakes anymore. They have had enough of snakes. They have had enough of the zoo. They want to go home. They have learned a lesson. Snakes are not scary. They are just different. But they are also not reliable. They are also not fun.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big tree with red fruits. Lily wants to pick some fruits. She thinks they are yummy.
+
+"Look, Ben, red fruits! Let's pick some!" Lily says.
+
+Ben shakes his head. He knows the fruits are bad. His mom warned him. She said they are not for eating. They can make you sick.
+
+"No, Lily, don't pick them! They are bad fruits! Mom said so!" Ben says.
+
+Lily does not listen. She thinks Ben is silly. She wants to try the fruits. She reaches for a fruit. She pulls it from the tree.
+
+"Stop, Lily, stop!" Ben shouts. He is scared for Lily. He runs to her. He tries to take the fruit from her hand.
+
+Lily is angry. She does not want to share. She thinks Ben is mean. She pushes him away. She bites the fruit.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Lily cries. The fruit is sour. It hurts her mouth. It makes her spit. She drops the fruit. She feels sick.
+
+Ben is sad. He wants to help Lily. He hugs her. He says he is sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I just wanted to warn you. The fruits are bad. Mom was right. She is important. She knows things. Next time, listen to her, okay?" Ben says.
+
+Lily nods. She is sorry too. She says she is sorry. She says she will listen to mom. She says Ben is important. He is her friend. He knows things. Next time, she will listen to him, okay?
+
+They hug. They say they are friends. They go to find mom. They hope she has some good fruits for them.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their blocks on the floor. They liked to build towers and bridges and houses. But then, Lily smelled something smelly. She wrinkled her nose and said, "Tom, do you smell that? It is very smelly!"
+
+Tom sniffed the air and nodded. He said, "Yes, it is smelly. It smells like rotten eggs. Where is it coming from?" He looked around the room, but he did not see anything smelly.
+
+They followed their noses and found the source of the smell. It was a hole in the floor, near the wall. They saw some pipes and wires inside the hole. They also saw some water and smoke coming out of the hole. They said, "Oh no, that is bad! The hole is smelly and dangerous. We need to fix it!"
+
+They ran to the kitchen and got some tools. They got a hammer, a screwdriver, some tape and some paper. They went back to the hole and tried to fix it. They hammered and screwed and taped and papered. They said, "There, we fixed it! The hole is not smelly and dangerous anymore. We are good fixers!"
+
+But then, they heard a loud noise. It was their mom, who came home from work. She saw the mess on the floor and the tools and the paper. She said, "What have you done? You did not fix the hole, you made it worse! The hole is from a gas leak, and you could have caused a fire or an explosion! You are not good fixers, you are naughty children!"
+
+Lily and Tom felt sorry and scared. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We did not know it was a gas leak. We thought it was just a smelly hole. We wanted to fix it and make it better. We did not mean to be naughty."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I know, my loves. I know you were trying to help. But you should never touch the pipes and wires in the floor. They are very dangerous and need a professional to fix them. Next time, if you see or smell something wrong, tell me or dad right away. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Tom nodded and said, "We understand, mom. We will not touch the pipes and wires again. We will tell you or dad if we see or smell something wrong. We love you, mom."
+
+Mom said, "I love you too, my loves. Now, let's clean up this mess and wait for the plumber to come and fix the hole properly. And then, we can have some cookies and milk and read a nice story."
+Tom and Mia like to play at the park. They like to swing, run and climb. But their favorite thing is the slide. The slide is big and shiny and cool. They go up the steps and slide down fast. Whee!
+
+One day, they see a new slide at the park. It is bigger and shinier and cooler than the old slide. They want to try it. But there is a gate in front of the new slide. The gate has a lock on it. The lock is red and round and hard. They cannot open the lock.
+
+Tom and Mia are sad. They want to slide on the new slide. They look around. They see a man with a key. The man works at the park. He is wearing a hat and a shirt with the park name on it. He is smiling.
+
+Tom and Mia run to the man. They point to the new slide. They say, "Please, can we slide on the new slide? Please, can you open the lock?"
+
+The man nods. He says, "Sure, you can slide on the new slide. I have the key. I will open the lock for you. But you have to be careful. The new slide is very fast and steep. Hold on tight and have fun!"
+
+The man walks to the gate. He puts the key in the lock. He turns the key. The lock clicks. The gate swings open. Tom and Mia cheer. They run to the new slide. They go up the steps and slide down fast. Whee! They love the new slide. It is big and shiny and cool. They thank the man and slide again and again. They have a lot of fun.
+Lily loved her doll very much. She named her doll Rose and played with her every day. She liked to dress her up, comb her hair, and have tea parties with her. Rose was Lily's best friend.
+
+One day, Lily's big brother Tom came into her room. He was bored and wanted to tease Lily. He saw Rose on the bed and grabbed her. "What a silly doll!" he said. "She has no eyes, no nose, no mouth. How can she talk to you?"
+
+Lily was angry and scared. She ran to Tom and tried to get Rose back. "Give her back!" she cried. "She is not silly, she is special. She can talk to me in my head. She is my friend!"
+
+Tom laughed and pulled Rose away from Lily. He twisted her arms and legs. He said, "She is not special, she is broken. Look, I can snap her like a twig!" He bent Rose's arm until it made a loud snap.
+
+Lily screamed and burst into tears. She saw Rose's arm hanging by a thread. She felt a pain in her heart. She hated Tom. She wished he would go away.
+
+Tom was surprised and scared by Lily's scream. He dropped Rose and ran out of the room. He did not mean to hurt Lily or Rose. He thought it was a harmless joke. He did not know how much Lily loved her doll. He felt sorry and ashamed.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toy horses in the garden. They liked to pretend they were cowboys and cowgirls, and they had a whip to make their horses run faster. Lily had a brown horse and Tom had a black horse.
+
+"Let's race to the big tree!" Lily said. "Ready, set, go!"
+
+They whipped their horses and ran across the grass. Tom was faster than Lily, and he reached the tree first. He turned around and shouted, "I win, I win!"
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted to win, too. She whipped her horse harder and tried to catch up with Tom. But she was too close to the tree, and she hit her head on a branch. She fell off her horse and started to cry.
+
+Tom heard Lily cry and ran back to her. He saw the bump on her head and felt sorry for her. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. Are you okay?"
+
+Lily sniffed and rubbed her head. She said, "It hurts, Tom. You were too fast."
+
+Tom hugged Lily and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to hurt you. You are a good cowgirl. Do you want to play something else?"
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She said, "Okay, Tom. You are a good cowboy. And a polite friend. Thank you for helping me."
+
+They picked up their horses and their whip and went to play something else. They were happy again.
+Lily was a shy girl who liked to play with ice. She had a big freezer in her house where she kept many ice cubes. She liked to make shapes and animals with them and pretend they were her friends.
+
+One day, she found a special ice cube that was very shiny and sparkly. She took it out of the freezer and put it on a plate. She wondered what it was and what it could do. She decided to name it Snowy and talk to it.
+
+"Hello, Snowy. I am Lily. Do you want to be my friend?" she asked.
+
+Snowy did not answer, but Lily felt it was listening. She told it stories and jokes and sang songs to it. She felt happy and less shy with Snowy.
+
+But as she played, she did not notice that Snowy was changing. It was getting bigger and bigger. It was growing! It was not a normal ice cube, it was a magic ice cube!
+
+Soon, Snowy was too big for the plate. It started to roll off the table and onto the floor. Lily was surprised and scared. She did not know what to do.
+
+"Snowy, stop! You are too big! You will break something!" she cried.
+
+But Snowy did not stop. It kept growing and rolling. It rolled out of the door and into the garden. It rolled over the flowers and the grass and the fence. It rolled into the street and the cars and the people. It rolled and rolled and rolled.
+
+Lily ran after Snowy, but she could not catch it. She was sad and worried. She did not want to lose her friend. She did not want Snowy to hurt anyone.
+
+She wished Snowy would stop growing and come back to her. She wished she had a way to make Snowy smaller and safer. She wished she had a magic word.
+
+Then, she remembered something. She remembered what her mom had told her when she was sick. She remembered a word that could make things better.
+
+She shouted the word as loud as she could.
+
+"Please!"
+Lily and Tom were playing in the old house. They liked to pretend they were explorers, looking for treasure and secrets. They found many things: a broken chair, a dusty hat, a shiny key. But they also found many cobwebs, hanging from the ceiling and the walls. The cobwebs were sticky and scary, and made Lily and Tom sneeze.
+
+"Let's go to another room," Lily said. "Maybe we can find something better there."
+
+"OK," Tom agreed. "But be careful. The floor is creaky and the stairs are steep."
+
+They walked to the door, but before they could open it, they heard a loud noise. It sounded like a growl, or a roar, or a howl. It came from the basement, where it was dark and cold.
+
+"What was that?" Lily asked, holding Tom's hand.
+
+"I don't know," Tom said, feeling restless. "Maybe it's a monster, or a ghost, or a witch."
+
+They looked at each other, and felt afraid. They wanted to run away, but they also wanted to know what was making the noise.
+
+"Maybe we should go and see," Tom suggested, trying to be brave.
+
+"Are you sure?" Lily asked, hesitating.
+
+"Maybe it's not so bad," Tom said. "Maybe it's just a cat, or a dog, or a bird."
+
+"Or maybe it's a trap," Lily said. "Maybe it's waiting for us to come closer, and then it will jump out and eat us."
+
+They didn't know what to do. They stood by the door, listening to the noise, and wondering what was in the basement.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a man with a big bag. He is picking up cans and bottles from the trash. He puts them in his bag.
+
+"Look, Lily, what is he doing?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know, Tom. Maybe he is cleaning the park," Lily says.
+
+They go closer to the man. They see he has a sad face. He looks tired and dirty.
+
+"Hello, sir, why are you picking up cans and bottles?" Tom asks.
+
+"Hello, kids, I am gathering them to sell. I need money to buy food and clothes. I am poor and I have no home," the man says.
+
+Tom and Lily feel sorry for the man. They want to help him.
+
+"Sir, we have some toys and snacks. Do you want some?" Lily asks.
+
+The man smiles. He is happy that the kids are kind.
+
+"Thank you, kids, you are very nice. But I can't take your things. You need them more than me," the man says.
+
+"Please, sir, take them. We have many toys and snacks at home. We want to share with you," Tom says.
+
+The man agrees. He takes a toy car and a cookie from Tom, and a doll and a juice box from Lily. He puts them in his bag.
+
+"Thank you, kids, you made my day. God bless you," the man says.
+
+He gives them a hug. He walks away with his bag.
+
+Tom and Lily wave goodbye. They feel happy that they helped the man.
+
+They go back to their parents. They tell them what they did.
+
+Their parents are proud of them. They hug them and praise them.
+
+They say, "You are very kind and generous, Tom and Lily. You did a good thing. You showed love to a poor man. You made a difference in his life."
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big factory with many pipes and machines. They wanted to go inside and see what was there.
+
+Lily's mom had told her not to go near the factory. She said it was dangerous and dirty. She warned Lily to stay away from it. But Tom said it would be fun and exciting. He said they could find cool things and have an adventure.
+
+Lily and Tom sneaked into the factory. They saw many buttons and levers and wheels. They wanted to touch them and see what they did. They did not see the signs that said "Do not touch" and "Keep out".
+
+They pushed a button and heard a loud noise. They pulled a lever and saw sparks fly. They turned a wheel and felt the floor shake. They did not know they were making the machines go wrong. They did not know they were causing trouble.
+
+Soon, the factory workers came and saw what Lily and Tom had done. They were angry and scared. They shouted at Lily and Tom and told them to leave. They said they had broken the machines and made a mess. They said they could have been hurt or worse.
+
+Lily and Tom ran out of the factory. They were sorry and ashamed. They realized they had been foolish and naughty. They wished they had listened to Lily's mom. They learned that it was difficult to fix what they had broken. They learned that they should not go where they were not allowed. They learned that they should obey the warnings of their parents.
+Anna liked to fix things. She had a box of tools that her dad gave her. She fixed her toys, her bike, and her dollhouse. She was very good at fixing things.
+
+One day, she went to the store with her mom. She saw a broken toy car on a shelf. It had a missing wheel and a dent. Anna felt sorry for the toy car. She wanted to fix it.
+
+She asked her mom, "Can I fix the toy car, please?"
+
+Her mom looked at the toy car and smiled. "Sure, you can try. But you have to ask the store lady first."
+
+Anna was shy. She did not like to talk to strangers. She held her mom's hand and walked to the store lady. The store lady was busy with other customers. Anna waited and waited. She felt nervous.
+
+Finally, the store lady saw Anna and her mom. She smiled and said, "Hello, what can I do for you?"
+
+Anna took a deep breath and said, "Can I fix the toy car, please? It is broken and sad. I have tools and I can make it better."
+
+The store lady was surprised and impressed. She said, "Wow, you are very kind and clever. Of course you can fix the toy car. You can have it for free if you fix it."
+
+Anna was happy. She thanked the store lady and took the toy car to a corner. She used her tools and fixed the wheel and the dent. She made the toy car look new and shiny.
+
+She showed the toy car to her mom and the store lady. They both clapped and praised her. Anna felt proud and happy. She hugged the toy car and said, "You are not broken and sad anymore. You are fixed and happy. You are my new friend."
+Lily and Ben were hungry. They saw a bakery with many pastries in the window. They wanted to eat some.
+
+"Let's go inside and ask for a pastry," Lily suggested.
+
+"OK," Ben agreed.
+
+They walked into the bakery and saw a lady behind the counter. She smiled at them.
+
+"Hello, children. What can I do for you?" she asked.
+
+"We want a pastry, please," Lily said.
+
+"Sure, what kind of pastry do you like?" the lady asked.
+
+Lily looked at the pastries and pointed to a big one with chocolate and cream.
+
+"I want that one," she said.
+
+Ben looked at the pastries and pointed to a small one with jam and sugar.
+
+"I want that one," he said.
+
+The lady nodded and took the pastries out of the display. She put them in a paper bag and handed it to Lily.
+
+"Here you go, children. That will be two dollars, please," she said.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They did not have any money. They had forgotten to bring their piggy banks.
+
+"Uh, we don't have any money," Lily said.
+
+The lady frowned and took the bag back.
+
+"Then you can't have any pastries. You have to pay for them. That's the rule," she said.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sad and ashamed. They turned around and walked out of the bakery. They were still hungry.
+
+They walked along the street and saw a park. They decided to go there and play.
+
+But when they got to the park, they saw that it was icy and snowy. The swings and slides were covered with ice. The grass and trees were white and frozen. It was very cold.
+
+Lily and Ben shivered and wished they had a pastry to warm them up. They tried to play, but they slipped and fell on the ice. They hurt themselves and cried.
+
+They had no pastries, no money, and no fun. They had a bad day.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play with their stuff. They have dolls, cars, balls and books. One day, they go to the park with their stuff. They see a big slide. They want to go on the slide.
+
+They leave their stuff on a bench. They run to the slide. They take turns to go down. They have fun. But they do not see a dog. The dog is hungry. The dog sees their stuff. The dog thinks their stuff is food. The dog runs to the bench. The dog grabs a doll. The dog runs away.
+
+Tom and Sue hear the dog. They look at the bench. They see their stuff is gone. They see the dog with the doll. They are scared. They want their stuff back. They do not know what to do.
+
+They see a man. The man is nice. The man has a leash. The man sees the dog. The man knows the dog. The dog is his dog. The man calls the dog. The dog comes to the man. The man sees the doll. The man knows the doll is not food. The man takes the doll from the dog. The man gives the doll to Tom and Sue. Tom and Sue are happy. They thank the man. The man says sorry. The man says the dog is not bad. The dog is just hungry. The man says he will give the dog some food.
+
+Tom and Sue learn a lesson. They learn to watch their stuff. They learn to be careful. They learn to be kind. They learn to say sorry. They learn to say thank you. They learn to be friends with the dog. They learn to be friends with the man. They learn to be happy.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She had a big, furry dog named Max. Max was very old but he loved to play with Lily every day. One day, Lily went to the park with Max and saw a little boy crying. She went to talk to him and found out that he had lost his toy. 
+
+Lily thought about what she could do to help the little boy. She remembered that she had a toy at home that she didn't play with anymore. She went home and got the toy and brought it back to the park. She gave it to the little boy and he stopped crying. 
+
+Lily felt happy that she could help the little boy. Max was happy too because Lily had done a good thing. The moral of the story is that it's important to help others when we can.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved going to school because she got to play with her friends and learn new things. One day, Lily's mom told her that her new shoes were very dirty and needed to be polished. 
+

+
+"Can we have a balloon, please?" Lila asked the man.
+
+"Sure, but you have to pay me one coin for each balloon," the man said.
+

+
+"Hey, give us back our balloons!" Lila and Tom shouted.
+
+"No, they are mine now. And so is the sandwich. Bye-bye!" the sandwich man said, running away.
+
+Lila and Tom were sad and angry. They had no balloons and no sandwich. They had nothing to eat and nothing to play with. They cried and went home.

+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play hide and seek in the park. Lily is good at hiding. Ben is good at finding.

+But then, they hear a loud bark. A big dog is coming. The dog is thirsty. He sees the bowl and runs to it. He wants to drink the water.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They do not like the dog. They think he is mean. They duck under the water and hold their breath.
+
+The dog reaches the bowl and sniffs. He smells something funny. He sees two heads in the water. He is surprised. He thinks they are toys. He is friendly. He wants to play.
+
+He barks again and wags his tail. He puts his paw in the bowl and tries to touch the heads. Lily and Ben feel the paw and scream. They jump out of the bowl and run away.
+
+The dog chases them and barks. He thinks it is a game. He is happy.
+
+Lily and Ben are not happy. They are wet and cold and scared. They run to their moms and hug them.
+
+They do not want to hide in the bowl again. They learn a lesson. Hiding in a bowl is not a good idea.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Lily had a pink bunny and Ben had a blue car.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud sound outside. It was like a big wind that made everything shake. They looked out the window and saw a big, dark cloud that spun around and around. It was a tornado!
+
+"Mommy, Daddy, what is that?" Lily asked, scared.
+
+"It's a tornado, sweetie. It's a very strong wind that can pick up things and move them around. We have to go to the basement and stay safe," Mommy said, grabbing Lily and Ben and taking them downstairs.
+
+They went to the basement and closed the door. They heard the tornado roar and rumble above them. They hugged each other and waited for it to go away.
+
+After a while, the sound stopped. Mommy opened the door and looked outside. The tornado was gone, but it had left a lot of mess. Some trees were broken, some houses were damaged, and some things were flying in the air.
+
+"Look, Mommy, what is that?" Ben pointed to something shiny in the sky.
+
+"It's a rainbow, honey. It's a brilliant band of colors that appears after the rain. It's very beautiful, isn't it?" Mommy said, smiling.
+
+"Yes, it is. Can we touch it?" Lily asked, curious.
+
+"No, we can't. It's too far away. And it will melt soon, like ice cream. It's only there for a little while. But we can enjoy it while it lasts," Mommy said, holding Lily and Ben close.
+
+They watched the rainbow together and felt happy. They knew they were safe and loved. The tornado was scary, but the rainbow was brilliant.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toy soldiers in the garden. They liked to pretend they were in a war and make loud noises. They had two teams, red and blue, and they tried to capture each other's flags.
+
+"Bang, bang, you're dead!" Tom shouted, pointing his toy gun at Lily.
+
+"No, I'm not, you missed!" Lily said, hiding behind a bush.
+
+"Yes, you are, I saw you fall!" Tom said, running towards her.
+
+They started to argue and push each other. They did not hear their mom calling them from the kitchen.
+
+"Tom, Lily, come inside now! It's time for lunch!" Mom said.
+
+But they did not listen. They were too busy fighting.
+
+Mom came out to the garden and saw them. She was very angry.
+
+"Stop it, both of you! How many times have I told you not to play war? It's not a nice game. You could hurt each other or break something. And you did not obey me when I called you. You are very naughty!" Mom said.
+
+She took their toy soldiers and their flags and put them in a bag.
+
+"You are punished. No more playing with these toys for a week. And no dessert for you today. Now go to your rooms and think about what you did." Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily felt very sad and sorry. They knew they had done wrong. They wished they had played a lovely game instead of a war game. They hugged each other and said sorry.
+
+"Mom, we're sorry. We won't play war again. Can we have our toys back?" They asked.
+
+Mom looked at them and sighed.
+
+"Maybe later, if you behave well. But first, you have to eat your lunch and say sorry to each other again. And next time, listen to me when I call you. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They followed Mom to the kitchen. They hoped she would forgive them and let them play again. They learned their lesson. War was not a good game.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They had a toy gun and a cross. They pretended to be cowboys and robbers.
+
+"Bang, bang, bang! I shoot you, robber!" Tom said, pointing the toy gun at Lily.
+
+"No, you don't! I have a cross. It protects me from your bullets!" Lily said, holding the cross in front of her.
+
+They ran around the park, chasing and hiding from each other. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, a big dog came out of nowhere. It barked and growled at them. It had sharp teeth and a long tail. It looked mean and scary.
+
+Tom and Lily were afraid. They dropped the toy gun and the cross. They ran to the bench where their mom was sitting. They felt helpless.
+
+"Mom, mom, help us! There is a big dog!" they cried.
+
+Mom saw the dog. She got up and shouted at it. "Go away, dog! Leave my kids alone!"
+
+The dog heard mom. It stopped barking and growling. It turned around and ran away.
+
+Tom and Lily hugged mom. They were safe and happy.
+
+"Thank you, mom. You saved us from the big dog!" they said.
+
+Mom smiled and kissed them. "You're welcome, my loves. I'm glad you're okay. But next time, be careful when you play. And don't forget your toy gun and your cross. They are yours."
+Lily and Max were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They liked to pretend they were racing on a big track, or fixing their cars at the mechanic shop. Lily had a red car and Max had a blue car.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, I'm going to win!" Lily said, making her car zoom past Max's.
+
+"No, you're not, I'm faster!" Max said, chasing after her.
+
+They laughed and had fun, until Lily felt a tickle in her nose. She tried to ignore it, but it got worse. She stopped her car and rubbed her nose.
+
+"Are you okay, Lily?" Max asked, noticing her face.
+
+"I think I have to sneeze," Lily said, feeling a big sneeze coming.
+
+"Ah, ah, ah..." She opened her mouth and closed her eyes.
+
+"CHOO!" She sneezed loudly, making her car fly out of her hand and land on the couch.
+
+"Wow, that was a big sneeze!" Max said, surprised.
+
+"Sorry, Max, I didn't mean to throw my car," Lily said, picking it up.
+
+"It's okay, Lily, I don't mind. Do you feel better now?" Max asked, kindly.
+
+"Yes, I do, thank you. Do you want to play some more?" Lily asked, smiling.
+
+"Sure, I do. Let's go to the mechanic and fix our cars. Maybe they need some oil or gas," Max said, being playful.
+
+"Okay, let's go. Vroom, vroom!" Lily said, following him.
+
+They went to the mechanic shop, which was a cardboard box with some stickers and tools. They pretended to check their cars and make them run better. They had a lot of fun, and forgot about the sneeze.
+Lily was hungry. She saw a big bunch of bananas on the table. She wanted to eat one. But she was nervous. Mommy said she had to ask before she took anything.
+
+She looked around. Mommy was in the kitchen. Daddy was in the living room. They were busy. Maybe they would not see her. Maybe they would not mind.
+
+She tiptoed to the table. She reached for a banana. She pulled it off the bunch. She felt happy. She had a banana.
+
+But then she heard a voice. "Lily, what are you doing?" It was Daddy. He saw her. He sounded angry.
+
+Lily was scared. She dropped the banana. She ran to her room. She hid under her bed. She felt sad. She did a bad thing. She took a banana without asking. She was sorry.
+Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play with water. They had a big spray bottle that they filled with water and sprayed on each other, on the plants, and on the cat. The cat did not like it and ran away.

+One day, they saw a big basket on the porch of their neighbor, Mrs. Lee. Mrs. Lee was a wealthy lady who lived alone and had many nice things. Tim and Kim were curious and wanted to see what was in the basket. They sneaked over and peeked inside. They saw many fruits and flowers and a card that said "Happy Birthday, Mrs. Lee!"
+
+Tim and Kim thought that the basket was too big and too pretty for Mrs. Lee. They decided to take some fruits and flowers for themselves. They grabbed some apples, oranges, and roses and put them in their pockets. Then they ran back to their yard and hid behind the fence.
+
+They were about to eat the fruits and smell the flowers when they heard a knock on the door. It was Mrs. Lee. She looked sad and angry. She said to their mom, "Someone took some of the fruits and flowers from my birthday basket. Do you know who did it?"
+
+Their mom was surprised and said, "No, I don't. But I'll ask my children. Tim, Kim, come here!"
+
+Tim and Kim came out from behind the fence. They looked guilty and scared. They saw the fruits and flowers in their pockets and the spray bottle on the ground. They knew they were in trouble.
+
+Their mom asked them, "Did you take some of the fruits and flowers from Mrs. Lee's basket?"
+
+Tim and Kim nodded and said, "Yes, we did. We're sorry."
+
+Their mom said, "That was very wrong and rude of you. You should not take things that are not yours. You should respect other people's property and feelings. How would you feel if someone took your spray bottle or your toys?"
+
+Tim and Kim said, "We would feel sad and mad."
+
+Their mom said, "That's how Mrs. Lee feels. You should apologize to her and give back what you took. And you should also do something nice for her to make up for your mistake."
+
+Tim and Kim said, "Okay, we will. We're sorry, Mrs. Lee."
+
+Mrs. Lee said, "Thank you for being honest and sorry. I forgive you. But please don't do it again."
+
+Tim and Kim gave back the fruits and flowers to Mrs. Lee. They also gave her their spray bottle as a gift. They said, "Happy birthday, Mrs. Lee. We hope you like our spray bottle. You can use it to water your plants or play with water."
+
+Mrs. Lee smiled and said, "Thank you, Tim and Kim. That's very kind of you. I like your spray bottle. Maybe we can play with water together sometime."
+
+Tim and Kim smiled and said, "Yes, we would like that."
+
+They learned their lesson and became friends with Mrs. Lee. They never took things that were not theirs again. They also learned to share and be generous with what they had. They realized that being wealthy is not about having many nice things, but about having a good heart.
+Anna and Ben like to go to the park with their mom. They see many things in the park: trees, flowers, swings, slides, and pigeons. Pigeons are gray birds that walk on the ground and fly in the sky. Sometimes they make noises like "coo coo".
+
+One day, Anna and Ben see a pigeon that is different from the others. It has thick feathers that are white and black and red. It looks very pretty and shiny. Anna and Ben want to touch it, but the pigeon is shy and runs away.
+
+"Come back, pigeon!" Anna says. "We want to be your friends!"
+
+"Maybe it is scared of us," Ben says. "Maybe we can make it happy."
+
+"How?" Anna asks.
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. Then he says, "Maybe we can dance for it. Pigeons like music, right?"
+
+Anna nods. She likes to dance too. She and Ben start to move their arms and legs and sing a song. They dance like butterflies and frogs and stars. They hope the pigeon will like their dance.
+
+The pigeon watches them from a distance. It sees them dancing and hears them singing. It feels curious and brave. It decides to join them. It flaps its wings and hops on the ground. It coos along with their song. It dances with Anna and Ben.
+
+Anna and Ben are very happy. They smile and clap and hug the pigeon. The pigeon feels happy too. It nuzzles and pecks them. It has made new friends.
+
+Mom sees them dancing and playing with the pigeon. She takes a picture with her phone. She thinks they look very cute and funny. She says, "What a wonderful day in the park!"
+Anna and Ben were playing in the yard. They liked to run and jump and make noise. They had a ball and a hoop and a bike. They were having fun.
+
+But then they heard a loud roar. It came from the big bush near the fence. They stopped and looked. They saw a big, furry, brown thing. It had sharp teeth and claws. It was a bear!
+
+They were frightened. They dropped their toys and ran to the house. They shouted, "Mom! Mom! There is a bear in the yard!"
+
+Mom was in the kitchen. She heard them and came out. She saw the bear too. She was surprised. She said, "Don't worry, kids. It's not a real bear. It's a costume. It's Mr. Lee, our neighbor. He is playing a trick on us. He likes to make jokes."
+
+She waved to Mr. Lee. He waved back and took off the costume. He smiled and said, "Sorry, kids. I didn't mean to scare you. I just wanted to have some fun. Do you want to try on the costume?"
+
+Anna and Ben looked at each other. They were not frightened anymore. They were curious. They said, "Yes, please. Can we?"
+
+They went to the yard and put on the costume. They took turns to roar and pretend to be a bear. They laughed and played. They had fun. They learned to listen and not to be afraid.
+One day, Tom and Lily were playing with their shapes. They had a box with many shapes: circles, squares, triangles, stars, and more. They liked to make pictures with the shapes on the floor.
+
+"Look, I made a house with a square and a triangle!" Lily said.
+
+"That's nice, but I made a rocket with a star and a circle!" Tom said.
+
+They were having fun, until they heard a loud noise. It was their dog, Spot. Spot was running around the room, barking and wagging his tail. He was very excited, because he saw a cat outside the window.
+
+Spot ran over the shapes, and knocked them all over. He made a big mess. Tom and Lily were very angry.
+
+"Spot, stop it! You ruined our shapes!" Tom shouted.
+
+"Bad dog! Go away!" Lily cried.
+
+Spot did not listen. He kept running and barking. He was too crazy.
+
+Tom and Lily started to panic. They did not know what to do. They were afraid that Spot would break something, or hurt himself, or get in trouble.
+
+They ran to their mom, who was in the kitchen. They told her what happened.
+
+"Mom, mom, Spot is going crazy! He is making a mess with our shapes! He is scaring us!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+Mom looked at them, and then at Spot. She saw that Spot was not crazy, he was just playful. He wanted to have fun, too.
+
+She smiled, and said, "Don't worry, kids. Spot is not crazy, he is just a dog. He does not know that your shapes are important to you. He thinks they are toys, like his ball. He wants to play with you, not ruin your game."
+
+She went to the living room, and called Spot. She gave him his ball, and threw it outside. Spot ran after it, happy and wagging his tail.
+
+"See? He just needed some attention and exercise. He is a good dog, he just has a lot of energy. Next time, you can play with him, too. Maybe you can teach him some shapes, or make him a house or a rocket. He will love that." Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry for Spot. They realized that he was not crazy, he was just lonely. They decided to be nicer to him, and share their shapes with him. They hugged him, and said, "We're sorry, Spot. We love you. You can play with us, too."
+
+Spot licked their faces, and wagged his tail. He was happy. He had a family that cared for him.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't judge others by their actions, try to understand their feelings. Be kind and generous, and you will make friends.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes they would try to catch the ball with their hands or their feet.
+
+"Max, kick the ball to me!" Lily shouted.
+
+"OK, Lily, here it comes!" Max said. He kicked the ball hard and it flew in the air.
+
+Lily ran to catch the ball, but she did not see a big dog coming from the other side. The dog saw the ball and wanted to play too. He jumped and caught the ball in his mouth.
+
+"Hey, that's our ball!" Lily said. She tried to get the ball from the dog, but the dog growled and did not yield.
+
+"Be careful, Lily, the dog might bite you!" Max said. He ran to help Lily, but the dog was stronger and faster. He ran away with the ball.
+
+Lily and Max were sad and angry. They lost their ball and their game. They walked back to their mom, who was sitting on a bench.
+
+"What happened, kids? Why are you so upset?" Mom asked.
+
+"A big dog took our ball and did not give it back!" Lily said.
+
+"That's not nice of the dog. I'm sorry, kids. How about we go home and have some dessert? I made some cookies for you. They are mild and sweet, just like you." Mom said.
+
+"Really? Cookies? Yay!" Lily and Max said. They forgot about the ball and the dog. They hugged their mom and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. You are the best!" Lily and Max said.
+
+They went home and ate the cookies. They were happy and full. They played with their toys and read some books. They had a good day after all.
+Anna and Ben were going on a trip with Mom and Dad. They had big bags of luggage that they put in the car. Anna had a small bag with her favorite things. She had a book, a ball, and a furry bear. Ben had a small bag too. He had a car, a puzzle, and a furry lion.
+
+They drove for a long time. Anna and Ben looked out the window and saw trees, houses, and cows. They sang songs and played games. They were happy and excited. Mom and Dad smiled and talked.
+
+They got to a big house where Grandma and Grandpa lived. They got out of the car and took their luggage. Grandma and Grandpa hugged them and said hello. They were happy to see them. They went inside the house and saw a big cake and a lot of toys. They were happy to play.
+
+Anna and Ben found a cozy room where they could sleep. They put their bags on the bed and took out their furry friends. They hugged them and said good night. They leaned on the pillows and closed their eyes. They were happy and sleepy. Mom and Dad kissed them and said sweet dreams. They turned off the light and left the room. They were happy and proud.
+Tom and Anna like to play in the park. They have a big box of toys. They can act like animals, or pirates, or superheroes. They have fun together.
+
+One day, they see a new boy in the park. He has a big stick of wood. He runs around and hits the trees and the swings with his wood. He makes loud noises. He does not look happy.
+
+Tom and Anna want to be nice. They go to the new boy and say hello. They ask him his name. They ask him if he wants to play with them.
+
+The new boy does not answer. He looks at Tom and Anna with a mean face. He says, "Go away! These are my toys! You can't play with them!" He pushes Tom and Anna with his wood. He is very rude.
+
+Tom and Anna are sad and scared. They run away from the new boy. They find a quiet spot under a big tree. They hug each other and share their toys. They say, "We don't like the new boy. He is not nice. He is not fun. He needs to learn how to act."
+Lily was a big sister now. She had a baby brother named Max. He was very small and adorable. He slept in a crib in Lily's room. Lily liked to watch him and talk to him.
+
+One night, Lily heard Max make a noise. He was awake and hungry. Lily got out of her bed and went to his crib. She saw his eyes and mouth open. He was crying.
+
+"Shh, Max, it's okay," Lily said. She picked him up and hugged him. He felt warm and soft. She rocked him gently. "Don't cry, Max. I'm here. I love you."
+
+She walked to the door and opened it. She called for Mommy and Daddy. "Mommy, Daddy, Max is awake. He needs milk. Can you help me?"
+
+Mommy and Daddy came to the door. They saw Lily holding Max. They smiled and praised her.
+
+"You're such a good sister, Lily," Mommy said. She took Max from Lily and kissed him. "Thank you for taking care of him. He's lucky to have you."
+
+Daddy hugged Lily and lifted her up. He carried her back to her bed. "You're very brave and kind, Lily," he said. He tucked her in and kissed her. "We're proud of you. We love you."
+
+Lily felt happy and sleepy. She closed her eyes and listened to Mommy and Daddy sing to Max. She dreamed of playing with him and teaching him new words. She was a big sister now.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play dress up. They have many costumes in a big sack. They can be pirates, princesses, animals, or superheroes.
+
+One day, they want to surprise their mom. They put on their most enthusiastic costumes. Lily is a fairy with wings and a wand. Ben is a dragon with scales and a tail. They hide behind the couch and wait for mom to come home.
+
+When mom opens the door, they jump out and shout, "Surprise! We are a fairy and a dragon!"
+
+Mom is very happy. She hugs them and says, "You look wonderful! What a nice surprise!"
+
+Lily and Ben smile. They are proud of their costumes. They ask mom, "Do you want to play dress up with us?"
+
+Mom nods. She says, "Of course! Let me see what I can find in the sack."
+
+She reaches into the sack and pulls out a costume. She is a clown with a big nose and a funny hat. She makes silly faces and noises.
+
+Lily and Ben laugh. They have fun playing dress up with mom. They are a happy family.
+Lila and Sam were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big ball that was yellow and shiny. They called it the sun ball. They liked to roll it, kick it, and throw it in the air.
+
+One day, they saw a man walking by their house. He was bald and had no hair on his head. He was wearing a hat, but it fell off when the wind blew. Lila and Sam saw his head and laughed. It was shiny like their sun ball.
+
+"Hey, look at that man!" Lila said. "He has a sun ball on his head!"
+
+"Maybe he is the sun man!" Sam said. "Maybe he can make the world bright and warm!"
+
+They ran to the man and asked him. "Hello, sun man! Are you the sun? Can you shine on the world?"
+
+The man was surprised and smiled. He was not the sun, but he liked the children's imagination. He bent down and said, "No, I am not the sun. I am just a man who has no hair. But I like your sun ball. It is very pretty and fun. Can I play with you?"
+
+Lila and Sam nodded and gave him their sun ball. They played together for a while, rolling, kicking, and throwing the ball. The man was happy and the children were happy. They did not care that he was bald and shiny. They liked him because he was kind and friendly. They made a new friend that day.
+Lily and Tom were playing by the river. They liked to throw stones and watch the water splash. Sometimes they saw fish and frogs and birds. They were happy and careful.
+
+One day, they saw a big green thing in the water. It had a long tail and many teeth. It was a crocodile. Lily and Tom were scared. They wanted to run away, but the crocodile was faster. It came out of the water and opened its mouth.
+
+"Help, help!" Lily and Tom shouted. They hoped someone would hear them and save them.
+
+But then, they heard another voice. It was a friendly voice. It said, "Don't be afraid, little ones. I am here to help you. I am a kind crocodile. I don't want to eat you. I want to be your friend."
+
+Lily and Tom looked at the voice. It was another crocodile. It was smaller and lighter than the first one. It had a smile and a bow on its head. It was a girl crocodile.
+
+The girl crocodile waved at Lily and Tom. She said, "Hello, I am Lola. I live in this river. I saw that bad crocodile trying to hurt you. He is mean and greedy. He doesn't like anyone. But I do. I like to make new friends. Will you be my friends?"
+
+Lily and Tom were surprised and curious. They had never met a kind crocodile before. They wondered if they could trust her. They looked at each other and nodded. They said, "Hello, Lola. We are Lily and Tom. We like to play by the river. We are happy to meet you. We can be your friends."
+
+Lola was glad. She said, "Thank you, Lily and Tom. You are very nice. Come, let me show you my home. I have a cozy cave and many toys. We can have fun together. But first, let me scare away that bad crocodile. He won't bother us again."
+
+Lola roared at the bad crocodile. She showed her teeth and swung her tail. The bad crocodile was afraid. He ran back to the water and swam away. He never came back.
+
+Lily and Tom cheered. They thanked Lola for saving them. They followed her to her cave. They played with her toys and shared her snacks. They had a wonderful time. They became good friends with Lola. They learned that not all crocodiles are the same. Some are kind and some are not. They decided to always be kind to everyone.
+One day, a woman and a boy went to the park. The woman was the boy's mom. She was friendly and kind. She liked to play with the boy and teach him new things.
+
+The boy liked to run and jump and swing. He also liked to talk and ask questions. He wanted to know everything. Sometimes, he did not listen to his mom. He thought he knew better.
+
+"Mom, can I go to the pond?" the boy asked. He saw some ducks and fish in the water. He wanted to feed them and touch them.
+
+"Wait, my son," the mom said. "The pond is not safe. You have to stay with me. We can watch the ducks and fish from here."
+
+But the boy did not listen. He ran to the pond. He did not see the sign that said "No Swimming". He did not hear his mom calling him. He only saw the ducks and fish.
+
+He threw some bread to the ducks. They came closer. He reached out his hand to touch them. He leaned over the edge of the pond. He slipped and fell into the water.
+
+He was scared and cold. He could not swim. He cried for help. He wished he had listened to his mom.
+
+The mom heard his cry. She ran to the pond. She saw him in the water. She jumped in and grabbed him. She pulled him out and hugged him.
+
+"Are you okay, my son?" she asked. She was worried and angry. She checked him for injuries. She wrapped him in a towel.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom," the boy said. He was sorry and ashamed. He realized he had been foolish and disobedient. He hugged his mom back.
+
+"I love you, my son," the mom said. She loved him and forgave him. She taught him a lesson. She said, "You have to listen to me. I know what is best for you. I want you to be safe and happy."
+
+The boy nodded. He learned his lesson. He said, "I love you, mom. I will listen to you. You are friendly and kind."
+Tim and Kim are twins. They like to play with blocks. They can make many things with blocks. They can make cars, boats, towers and houses.
+
+One day, they want to make a big house with blocks. They put many blocks on the floor. They add more and more blocks. They make walls and a roof. They make windows and a door. They are happy with their house.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is their dog, Rex. Rex is big and strong. He likes to run and jump. He sees the house of blocks. He thinks it is a toy. He runs to the house. He jumps on the house. He breaks the house.
+
+Tim and Kim are fearful. They cry. They say, "No, Rex, no! Bad dog! You broke our house!"
+
+Rex is sorry. He does not want to make Tim and Kim sad. He wags his tail. He licks their faces. He tries to say sorry.
+
+Tim and Kim stop crying. They hug Rex. They say, "It's okay, Rex. We know you did not mean it. We love you. But please, do not break our house again."
+
+They smile. They pick up the blocks. They start to make a new house. They make it stronger. They hope Rex will not break it again. They have fun with blocks and Rex.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. They hop on the grass and the swings. They see a big pile of waste near the bins. It is smelly and dirty.
+
+"Who put this waste here?" Lily asks. "It is not good for the park."
+
+"I don't know," Tom says. "Maybe some bad people. They don't care about the park."
+
+Lily and Tom are sad. They want to help the park. They see some bags and gloves near the bins. They have an idea.
+
+"Let's pick up the waste and put it in the bins," Lily says. "It is easy and fun. Then the park will be clean and happy."
+
+"OK," Tom says. "Let's do it. We are good friends of the park."
+
+Lily and Tom put on the bags and gloves. They hop to the pile of waste. They pick up the waste and put it in the bins. They hop back to the grass and the swings. They are proud and happy.
+
+"Look, we did it!" Lily says. "The park is clean and happy. Thank you, Tom."
+
+"Thank you, Lily," Tom says. "You are a good friend. Let's play some more."
+
+Lily and Tom play in the park. They hop and laugh. They are good friends of the park. The park is good to them.
+Lily and Ben were going to the park with Mom. They liked the park. It had swings and slides and a big pond. But today, there was a lot of fog. The fog was white and thick and cold. They could not see the pond or the trees or the birds.
+
+"Mom, can we go home?" Lily asked. She was cold and bored. She wanted to play with her dolls.
+
+"No, sweetie, we have to wait for Dad. He is coming soon. He has a surprise for us." Mom said. She smiled and hugged Lily.
+
+"What surprise?" Ben asked. He was curious and impatient. He wanted to see the surprise.
+
+"You will see. It is something very special and beautiful. It can glow in the dark." Mom said. She winked at Ben.
+
+"Glow in the dark? Like a star?" Ben asked. He liked stars. They were bright and shiny and far away.
+
+"Something like that. But not a star. Something you can touch and hold." Mom said. She looked at her watch. "Dad should be here any minute."
+
+They waited and waited. The fog did not go away. It was getting darker and darker. Lily and Ben were getting tired and hungry. They wondered where Dad was.
+
+Then, they heard a car horn. They looked and saw Dad's car. It was coming through the fog. It stopped near them. Dad got out of the car. He had a big box in his hands.
+
+"Hi, everyone! Sorry I'm late. I had to pick up the surprise. Are you ready to see it?" Dad said. He was happy and excited.
+
+"Yes, yes, yes!" Lily and Ben said. They ran to Dad. They wanted to see the surprise.
+
+Dad opened the box. Inside, there were many small glass jars. Each jar had a light inside. The lights were different colors. They were red and blue and green and yellow and pink and purple. They were glowing in the dark. They were very pretty.
+
+"These are fireflies. They are insects that can make their own light. They are a gift for you. You can keep them in your room and watch them glow at night. They are like stars, but alive." Dad said. He gave a jar to Lily and a jar to Ben.
+
+"Wow! They are amazing! Thank you, Dad!" Lily and Ben said. They were happy and amazed. They held the jars and looked at the fireflies.
+
+Mom and Dad smiled and hugged them. They were happy too. They forgot about the fog and the cold. They only saw the glow of the fireflies. They were like a family of stars.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they decided to trade some of their toys with each other. Tom gave Lily his red car and Lily gave Tom her yellow doll. They were happy with their trade and played with their new toys.
+
+But then, Tom saw Lily zip the car on the floor and make loud noises. He wanted his car back. He said to Lily, "Give me my car! I don't like the doll!" Lily said, "No, it's my car now! You gave it to me! I don't like the doll either!" They started to fight and pull the toys from each other.
+
+Their grandma, who was elderly and kind, heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw them fighting and said, "Stop, stop! Why are you fighting? You both have nice toys. Why don't you share them and play together?" She took the car and the doll and gave them to both of them. She said, "You can take turns to play with the car and the doll. Or you can play with both of them at the same time. Or you can trade them back if you want. But don't fight. Fighting is not nice."
+
+Tom and Lily listened to their grandma and felt sorry. They said, "Sorry, grandma. Sorry, Lily. Sorry, Tom." They hugged each other and thanked their grandma. They decided to share the car and the doll and play together. They zipped the car and hugged the doll and had fun. Their grandma smiled and watched them. She was happy that they were happy.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play together. But today, they are sad. Their grandma is far away. She cannot come to their birthday party.
+
+Mom says, "Don't be sad, my loves. Grandma loves you very much. She has a surprise for you. She will send it to you soon."
+
+Anna and Ben wonder what the surprise is. They hope it is something fun. They wait and wait for the mailman.
+
+One day, the mailman comes. He has a big box. He says, "This is for Anna and Ben. It is from Grandma. Happy birthday!"
+
+Anna and Ben are very happy. They run to the box. They open it. Inside, they see two teddy bears. They are soft and fluffy. They have ribbons around their necks. They have buttons on their paws.
+
+Anna and Ben press the buttons. The teddy bears start to talk. They say, "Hello, Anna. Hello, Ben. We are your new friends. We are from Grandma. She loves you very much. Happy birthday!"
+
+Anna and Ben hug the teddy bears. They say, "Thank you, Grandma. We love you too. We love our new friends. They are the best surprise ever!"
+
+The teddy bears are very noisy. They talk and sing and laugh. Anna and Ben talk and sing and laugh with them. Mom smiles. She says, "What a noisy surprise! But I'm glad you like it. Grandma is very clever. She knows how to make you happy."
+Lily liked to mail letters to her grandma. She would draw pictures of her toys, her dog, and her friends. She would write her name in big letters. She would put a stamp on the envelope and give it to her mom. Mom would take it to the big box with a flag.
+
+One day, Lily found a lime in the kitchen. It was green and round and smelled sour. She wondered what it was. She asked her mom.
+
+"That's a lime, Lily. It's a fruit. You can squeeze it and make juice. But be careful, it's very sour. You might not like it."
+
+Lily was curious. She wanted to try the lime. She asked her mom if she could have it.
+
+"Sure, Lily. But don't eat it all. Just take a little bite. And don't make a mess."
+
+Lily nodded. She took the lime and ran to her room. She put it on her desk next to her letters. She decided to mail the lime to her grandma. She thought grandma would like it. She found an envelope and put the lime inside. She wrote "To Grandma" on the front. She put a stamp on it. She was very proud.
+
+She ran to her mom and gave her the envelope. She said, "Mom, I mailed a lime to grandma. She will love it."
+
+Mom looked at the envelope. It was heavy and wet. She felt the lime inside. She was surprised. She said, "Lily, you mailed a lime to grandma? Why did you do that?"
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Because I love her. And I wanted to share the lime with her. It's a fruit. It's sour. She will like it."
+
+Mom sighed. She said, "Lily, that's very sweet of you. But you can't mail a lime to grandma. It will go bad. It will make a mess. It will make grandma sad. She won't be able to open it. She won't be able to see your pictures. She won't be able to read your name. She will be sorry."
+
+Lily frowned. She said, "Oh no. I don't want to make grandma sad. I don't want to make a mess. I don't want to be sorry. What can I do?"
+
+Mom hugged her. She said, "Don't worry, Lily. We can fix this. We can take the envelope back. We can get a new one. We can mail your letters and pictures. We can keep the lime. We can make juice. We can call grandma and tell her we love her. She will be happy."
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Okay, mom. Let's do that. I'm sorry I mailed a lime to grandma. I love her. I love you."
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "I love you too, Lily. You're a good girl. Come on, let's go."
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hill with a path that went up and down in a zigzag. Ben wanted to go up the hill and see what was on the other side. Lily was scared. She thought the hill was too high and steep.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's go up the hill!" Ben said. "It will be fun!"
+
+"No, Ben, I don't want to go. It looks scary. What if we fall?" Lily said.
+
+"Don't be silly, Lily. We can manage. We just have to be careful and follow the path. It will be safe. Please, Lily, come with me!" Ben said.
+
+Ben took Lily's hand and tried to pull her to the hill. Lily resisted. She did not want to go. She started to cry.
+
+"Ben, stop it! You are hurting me! I don't want to go! Leave me alone!" Lily said.
+
+Ben let go of Lily's hand. He was angry. He wanted to go up the hill and have an adventure. He did not like Lily's crying. He thought she was a baby.
+
+"Fine, Lily, stay here. I don't need you. I can go up the hill by myself. You are a baby and a coward!" Ben said.
+
+Ben ran to the hill and started to climb the zigzag path. He did not look back at Lily. He did not care if she was sad or scared. He only cared about himself.
+
+Lily watched Ben go up the hill. She felt sad and scared. She wanted Ben to come back and play with her. She did not like being alone. She wished Ben was not so mean. She wished they could be friends again.
+Lily liked to dive in the pool. She wore a mask and a tube to breathe. She saw many things under the water. She saw fish and plants and rocks. She saw an image of herself in the water. She smiled and waved at the image.
+
+One day, Lily saw something shiny under the water. She wanted to see what it was. She dived deeper and deeper. She saw a big shell with a pearl inside. She reached for the pearl, but a crab pinched her finger. She let go of the pearl and swam up fast.
+
+Lily was scared and hurt. She cried and looked for her mom. Her mom was on the side of the pool. She saw Lily and jumped in the water. She hugged Lily and kissed her finger. She said, "It's okay, Lily. You are safe. The crab was just protecting his home. Next time, be careful and don't dive too deep."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I just wanted to see the pearl. It was so pretty." Her mom said, "I know, Lily. But some things are better to look at than to touch. Come on, let's go to the shallow end and play with your toys."
+
+Lily and her mom went to the shallow end and played with her toys. Lily forgot about the pearl and the crab. She had fun with her mom and felt safe. She still liked to dive in the pool, but she learned to respect the animals and their homes. She was happy and curious, but also careful and smart.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big orange dog. The dog has a collar with a tag. The tag says "Guard".
+
+"Wow, look at that dog!" Ben says. "He is so big and orange!"
+
+"Maybe he is a guard dog," Lily says. "Maybe he guards the park from bad people."
+
+They go closer to the dog. The dog sees them and wags his tail. He is not angry. He is friendly.
+
+"Hi, dog!" Lily says. "Can we pet you?"
+
+The dog nods his head. He likes to be petted. Lily and Ben stroke his fur. He is soft and warm.
+
+"Can we play with you?" Ben asks. "Do you have a ball?"
+
+The dog barks. He runs to a bush and brings back a ball. He drops the ball at Ben's feet. He wants to play fetch.
+
+"OK, let's play!" Ben says. He picks up the ball and throws it. The dog chases the ball and catches it. He brings it back to Ben. They do this again and again.
+
+Lily and Ben have fun with the dog. They laugh and run and play. The dog is happy too. He likes to have friends.
+
+After a while, they get tired. They lay on the grass and rest. The dog lays next to them and licks their faces. He is a good guard dog. He guards the park and his new friends.
+Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play on the beach. They found a big anchor that was stuck in the sand. They thought it was cool and wanted to take it home.
+
+"Let's pull it out and drag it to our house," Tim said.
+
+"But it's too heavy and our mom will be mad," Kim said.
+
+"No, she won't. She will be happy that we found a treasure. Come on, help me," Tim said.
+
+They pulled and pulled, but the anchor did not move. They got tired and hungry. They looked at the sun and saw that it was almost time for dinner.
+
+"Oh no, we have to go back. Mom will cook for us and we don't want to miss it," Kim said.
+
+"OK, let's go. But we will come back tomorrow and try again," Tim said.
+
+They ran back to their house, but they did not see their mom. They saw a note on the table that said:
+
+"Dear Tim and Kim, I went to the store to buy some food for dinner. I will be back soon. Don't go anywhere. Love, Mom."
+
+They felt sad and scared. They did not know what to do. They waited and waited, but their mom did not come back. They heard a loud noise outside. They looked out the window and saw a big wave coming to the beach. It was a storm.
+
+The wave hit the anchor and made it fly in the air. It landed on their house and smashed it. Tim and Kim screamed and ran out. They saw their mom coming back from the store. She saw the anchor and the house and dropped her bags. She hugged them and cried.
+
+"I'm so sorry, my babies. I'm so glad you're OK. What happened? How did the anchor get here?" she asked.
+
+Tim and Kim looked at each other and felt ashamed. They told her the truth. They said they were sorry. They learned a lesson. They learned that they should not take things that are not theirs. They learned that they should listen to their mom and stay safe. They learned that playing on the beach is not always cool.
+Lily and Sam were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They had a secret spot under a big tree, where they hid their toys and snacks.
+
+One day, they saw a new boy in the park. He was big and mean. He kicked their ball away and laughed. Lily and Sam were scared and angry. They ran to their secret spot and hoped he would not find them.
+
+But the new boy followed them. He saw their toys and snacks under the tree. He grabbed them and threw them around. He broke Lily's delicate doll and Sam's shiny car. He kicked their secret spot and made a big mess.
+
+Lily and Sam cried. They did not know what to do. They wished he would go away.
+
+Then they heard a voice. It was Ben, their older brother. He had seen everything. He came to help them. He told the new boy to stop and leave. He said he was sorry for what he did. He gave back their toys and snacks. He said he was lonely and wanted to play.
+
+Lily and Sam looked at each other. They felt sorry for him too. They decided to give him a chance. They asked him if he wanted to join their secret spot. He said yes and smiled. He said his name was Max.
+
+They all became friends. They played and shared their toys and snacks. They kicked their ball and laughed. They had fun in the park. They had a new secret: Max.
+Lily and Ben are playing in their room. They have a big sheet and some pillows. They want to make a tent.
+
+"Let's do a tent with the sheet and the pillows," Lily says.
+
+"OK, I will help you," Ben says.
+
+They put the sheet over their bed and use the pillows to hold it. They crawl under the sheet. They have a flashlight and some toys.
+
+"Now we are in a tent," Lily says. "We can pretend we are camping."
+
+"Yeah, we can pretend we are camping," Ben says. "But this is a fake tent. It is not a real tent."
+
+Lily frowns. She does not like that Ben says their tent is fake.
+
+"No, it is not a fake tent. It is a real tent. We made it with our own hands," she says.
+
+Ben shakes his head. He does not agree with Lily.
+
+"No, it is a fake tent. It is not a real tent. A real tent is made of canvas and has poles and zippers," he says.
+
+Lily and Ben start to argue. They raise their voices. They pull the sheet and the pillows.
+
+"Stop it, stop it!" their mom says. She comes into their room. She sees the mess they made. She is not happy.
+
+"What are you doing? Why are you fighting?" she asks.
+
+Lily and Ben stop arguing. They look at their mom. They feel sorry.
+
+"We are sorry, mom. We were playing with the sheet and the pillows. We were doing a tent. But Ben said it was a fake tent. And I said it was a real tent. And we got mad at each other," Lily says.
+
+Mom sighs. She sits on the bed. She hugs Lily and Ben.
+
+"I see. Well, you know what? It doesn't matter if your tent is fake or real. What matters is that you have fun and you share and you be nice to each other. You can use your imagination and pretend anything you want. But you can't hurt each other or ruin the sheet and the pillows. Do you understand?" she says.
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They understand. They hug their mom back.
+
+"We understand, mom. We are sorry. We love you," they say.
+
+Mom smiles. She kisses them.
+
+"I love you too. Now, why don't you clean up this mess and then you can play with the sheet and the pillows again. But this time, no fighting, OK?" she says.
+
+Lily and Ben say OK. They clean up the mess. They do the tent again. They play nicely. They have fun. They are happy.
+Tommy wanted to play with his dog, Spot, outside. But it was dark and cold, and Mommy said no. Tommy was sad and angry. He did not listen to Mommy. He put on his coat and hat, and took Spot's leash. He opened the door and ran outside with Spot.
+
+"Tommy, come back!" Mommy shouted. "It's not safe outside!"
+
+But Tommy did not hear Mommy. He was too busy playing with Spot. He threw a stick and Spot ran after it. Tommy laughed and followed Spot. He did not see the big car coming fast on the road.
+
+The car honked and braked, but it was too late. It hit Spot and Tommy. Spot and Tommy flew in the air and landed on the ground. They did not move. They were hurt very bad.
+
+Mommy ran outside and saw what happened. She screamed and cried. She ran to Spot and Tommy and hugged them. She called for help, but it was too late. Spot and Tommy were gone. Mommy was alone and sad. She wished she had stopped Tommy from going outside. She wished she had said yes to playing inside. She wished she had said I love you to Tommy and Spot. But she did not. And now it was too late.
+Lily and Ben went to the park with Mom. They saw a big truck with many colors and a loud horn. The truck had a sign that said "Candy Land". Lily and Ben liked candy very much. They ran to the truck and waved to the man inside.
+
+The man smiled and opened the door. He gave Lily and Ben a big bag of candy. There were lollipops, gummies, chocolates and more. Lily and Ben said "Thank you" and "Wow". They opened the bag and tried some candy. It was very yummy. They shared some candy with Mom too.
+
+Mom said it was time to go home. Lily and Ben did not want to leave. They wanted more candy. But Mom said they had enough. She said they could have some more candy later, after dinner. Lily and Ben nodded. They said "Bye" to the man and the truck. They waved again and walked with Mom. They were happy and full of candy.
+Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But sometimes they are naughty and do not listen to Mom and Dad.
+
+One day, Mom and Dad have to go to work. They ask Grandma to watch Sara and Tom. Grandma is nice and kind, but she does not like noise and mess.
+
+Sara and Tom are bored. They do not want to watch TV or read. They want to have fun. They see a big chair in the living room. It is old and soft. They think it is a good place to play.
+
+They climb on the chair and pretend it is a boat. They make waves with their arms and shout "Ahoy, matey!" They lean on the back of the chair and rock it. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But they do not see that the chair is breaking. The legs are loose and the cushion is torn. The chair is not strong enough for their game.
+
+Suddenly, the chair falls over with a loud crash. Sara and Tom fall on the floor. They are scared and hurt. They cry.
+
+Grandma hears the noise and runs to the living room. She sees the broken chair and the twins on the floor. She is angry and worried.
+
+She helps Sara and Tom get up and checks if they are OK. Then she gives them a lecture. She tells them that they are naughty and careless. She tells them that they should not play with the chair. She tells them that they should listen to her and be quiet.
+
+Sara and Tom feel sorry and ashamed. They say "Sorry, Grandma. We did not mean to break the chair. We just wanted to have fun."
+
+Grandma hugs them and says "I know, my dears. But you have to be careful and respectful. The chair is old and ordinary, but it is also precious. It belonged to your great-grandpa. He used to sit on it and tell me stories. It is a family treasure."
+
+Sara and Tom are surprised and curious. They ask Grandma to tell them stories about great-grandpa and the chair. Grandma smiles and says "OK, but only if you promise to be good and quiet."
+
+Sara and Tom nod and say "We promise, Grandma. We love you and we love stories."
+
+They sit on the floor next to Grandma and listen to her stories. They forget about the broken chair and the lecture. They learn about their family and their history. They have a different kind of fun.
+Sara and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. Sara had a doll and Tom had a car. They liked to make up stories with their toys and talk to them.
+
+"Hello, doll. You are very pretty. Do you want to go to the park with me?" Sara said.
+
+"Vroom, vroom. I am a fast car. I can race with anyone. Do you want to see how fast I can go?" Tom said.
+
+Sara and Tom looked at each other and smiled. They decided to play together. They took their toys to the window and pretended they were going to the park. The sun was shining outside and made their toys look bright and colorful.
+
+"Look, doll. The sun is shining. It makes you shine too. You are like a star," Sara said.
+
+"Look, car. The sun is shining. It makes you shine too. You are like a rocket," Tom said.
+
+They were having fun until they heard a loud noise. It was their dog, Rex. Rex was big and furry and liked to play too. But he did not know how to play gently with toys. He saw Sara and Tom's toys and wanted to join them. He ran to the window and jumped on them. He grabbed the doll and the car with his mouth and shook them hard.
+
+"Hey, Rex. Stop it. You are hurting our toys. Let them go," Sara said.
+
+"Hey, Rex. Stop it. You are breaking our toys. Drop them now," Tom said.
+
+But Rex did not listen. He thought they were playing with him. He ran away with the doll and the car and hid under the sofa. Sara and Tom followed him and tried to get their toys back. They were very sad and angry. They loved their toys and did not want them to be ruined.
+
+"Rex, you are a terrible dog. You are not nice. You are not our friend," Sara said.
+
+"Rex, you are a terrible dog. You are not good. You are not our buddy," Tom said.
+
+Rex heard their words and felt sorry. He did not mean to hurt their toys or make them cry. He wanted to play with them and make them happy. He realized he had made a mistake. He came out from under the sofa and gave them back their toys. He licked their faces and wagged his tail.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara. I'm sorry, Tom. I did not know. I was silly. Please forgive me," Rex said.
+
+Sara and Tom looked at their toys. They were dirty and torn and had teeth marks on them. They were not shiny anymore. They were very sad. But they also looked at Rex. He was sad too. He was sorry. He was their dog. They loved him.
+
+"It's okay, Rex. We forgive you. We know you did not mean it. We love you," Sara said.
+
+"It's okay, Rex. We forgive you. We know you did not know. We love you," Tom said.
+
+They hugged Rex and he hugged them back. They decided to play with him and their toys together. They did not care if their toys were not shiny anymore. They were still their toys. And Rex was still their dog. And they were still happy.
+Tim and Mia are playing with their cars on the floor. They make noises and pretend to drive fast. Tim has a red car and Mia has a blue car.
+
+"Let's race!" Tim says. "The first one to reach the door wins!"
+
+"Okay!" Mia says. "Ready, set, go!"
+
+They push their cars and zoom across the floor. Tim is ahead, but Mia is close behind. They see the door getting closer and closer.
+
+"Watch out!" Mia says. "There is a dirty sock on the floor! You have to turn or you will crash!"
+
+Tim sees the sock, but he does not want to slow down. He thinks he can go over it. He tries to jump his car, but the sock is too big. His car gets stuck on the sock and stops.
+
+"Oh no!" Tim says. "My car is delayed! It is dirty and smelly!"
+
+Mia sees Tim's car stop. She turns her car and avoids the sock. She reaches the door and wins the race.
+
+"Yay!" Mia says. "I win! I win!"
+
+She turns around and sees Tim's car on the sock. She feels sorry for him. She goes back and helps him get his car off the sock.
+
+"Here you go," Mia says. "Your car is free now. Do you want to race again?"
+
+Tim smiles and nods. He thanks Mia for helping him. He cleans his car with a tissue. He says he will be more careful next time.
+
+They race again, and have fun. They are good friends.
+Lila and Tom are friends. They like to play games on the tablet. The tablet is modern. It has many colors and sounds.
+
+One day, they play a new game. The game is about animals. They have to find the animals and tap them. When they tap an animal, they gain a point. The game says "Good job!" or "Try again!".
+
+Lila is good at the game. She finds many animals. She gains many points. She is happy. She says "Look, Tom, I have ten points!"
+
+Tom is not good at the game. He finds few animals. He gains few points. He is sad. He says "Lila, you are too fast. I have only three points."
+
+Lila sees that Tom is sad. She wants to help him. She says "Tom, don't be sad. I will show you how to find the animals. You have to look for their shapes and colors. Like this. See, this is a lion. It is yellow and brown. Tap it!"
+
+Tom listens to Lila. He looks for the shapes and colors of the animals. He finds a lion. He taps it. He gains a point. The game says "Good job!" He smiles. He says "Thank you, Lila. You are a good friend. Now I have four points!"

+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with red fruits. They want to pick some fruits and make jam.
+
+"Look, Lily, the fruits are so red and sweet. Let's climb the tree and get some," Tom says.
+
+"OK, Tom, but be careful. The tree is very high and the branches are thin," Lily says.
+
+Tom and Lily climb the tree. They pick some fruits and put them in a basket. They are very happy. They want to make jam for their mums and dads.
+
+But then, Tom slips and falls. He hurts his leg. He cries.

+Lily is scared. She sees Tom on the ground. She climbs down the tree. She runs to Tom and hugs him.
+
+"Don't cry, Tom. I'm here. I will support you. We will go to the nurse and she will make your leg better," Lily says.
+
+Lily helps Tom to stand up. She holds his hand. They walk to the nurse. The nurse is kind. She puts a bandage on Tom's leg. She gives him a sticker and a lollipop.
+
+"There, there, Tom. You are very brave. You will be fine soon. And you have a good friend who supports you. You are lucky," the nurse says.
+
+Tom smiles. He feels better. He thanks the nurse. He hugs Lily.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. You support me. You are lucky, too. We have some fruits. We can still make jam," Tom says.
+

+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her toys. She had many toys, but her favorite was a candle. She did not own the candle, but she found it in a box in the attic. The candle was white and had a picture of a flower on it. Lily liked to pretend that the candle was a magic wand.
+
+One day, Lily was playing with her candle in her room. She waved it around and said, "Candle, candle, make me a cake!" She was very hungry and wanted a snack. But nothing happened. Lily tried again, "Candle, candle, make me a sandwich!" But still nothing happened. Lily was sad and wondered why her candle did not work.
+
+She decided to go downstairs and ask her mom for some food. She took her candle with her and walked down the stairs. But she did not see her mom. She saw a big, scary dog. The dog was also hungry and saw Lily and her candle. The dog barked and ran towards Lily. Lily was scared and did not know what to do.
+
+She held her candle in front of her and said, "Candle, candle, make the dog go away!" And then something amazing happened. The candle lit up and made a bright flash. The dog was startled and ran away. Lily was surprised and happy. Her candle did work! She ran to her mom and hugged her. She told her what happened and showed her the candle. Her mom smiled and said, "Lily, you are very brave and clever. And you know what? You can own the candle. It is a special gift for you. Now, let's go and make some cake together." Lily was very happy and thanked her mom. She loved her candle and her mom. And she was not hungry anymore.
+Sam and Tom are brothers. They like to play in the yard. One day, they find a big box. They open the box and see many things. They see books, toys, clothes and a jar. The jar is heavy and has a label. The label says "Dad's ash".
+
+Sam and Tom do not know what ash is. They think it is dirt. They want to play with the jar. They take it out of the box and shake it. Some ash comes out of the jar and falls on the ground. Sam and Tom laugh. They think it is funny.
+
+They decide to bury the jar in the yard. They dig a hole with their hands. They put the jar in the hole and cover it with dirt. They pat the dirt and make a mound. They are happy. They think they made a good hiding place for the jar.
+
+Mom comes out of the house. She sees the boys and the box. She sees the ash on the ground and the mound in the yard. She is angry and sad. She knows what ash is. She knows it is Dad. Dad was bald and sick. He died and became ash. Mom loved Dad. She wanted to keep his ash in the jar.
+
+She runs to the boys and the mound. She yells at them and cries. She tells them to dig up the jar. She tells them they did a bad thing. She tells them they hurt her and Dad. Sam and Tom are scared and sorry. They do not understand. They thought they were playing. They thought they were having fun. They did not know they were burying Dad.
+Sara and Ben are going to the zoo with Mom. They are very happy. They want to see the lions, the monkeys, and the penguins. Mom gives them each a ticket and tells them to hold it tight.
+
+They walk to the bus stop and wait for the bus. The bus is big and yellow. It has many seats and windows. Sara and Ben sit next to Mom and look outside. They see cars, trees, and shops.
+
+"Look, Ben, there is a big park!" Sara says, pointing to a green space with swings and slides.
+
+"Wow, that looks fun!" Ben says. "Can we play there later?"
+
+"Maybe, if we have time," Mom says. "But first, we have to go to the zoo."
+
+The bus stops at a red light. Sara and Ben hear a loud honk. They turn around and see a truck behind the bus. The truck is carrying many boxes. One of the boxes falls off the truck and lands on the road. The box breaks open and many things come out.
+
+"What are those?" Sara asks, curious.
+
+"They are balls," Mom says. "They are round and colorful. They bounce and roll."
+
+Sara and Ben watch the balls bounce and roll on the road. They see red balls, blue balls, yellow balls, and green balls. They see big balls, small balls, soft balls, and hard balls. They see balls with stripes, dots, stars, and faces.
+
+"Look, Mom, that ball has a smiley face!" Ben says, pointing to a yellow ball with a black smile.
+
+"That's funny," Mom says, smiling too.
+
+Sara likes the balls. She wants to play with them. She thinks they are pretty and fun. She reaches for her ticket in her pocket. She wants to trade her ticket for a ball. She thinks Mom will not mind.
+
+She pulls out her ticket and opens the window. She leans out and waves her ticket at the truck driver. She shouts, "Hey, mister, can I have a ball?"
+
+Mom sees Sara and gasps. She grabs Sara and pulls her back. She closes the window and scolds Sara.
+
+"Sara, what are you doing?" Mom says, angry. "That's very dangerous! You could have fallen out of the window! And you could have lost your ticket! You need your ticket to go to the zoo!"
+
+Sara feels bad. She did not mean to be bad. She did not know it was dangerous. She did not want to lose her ticket. She just wanted a ball.
+
+She drops her ticket on her lap and says, "Sorry, Mom. I'm sorry."
+
+Mom hugs Sara and says, "It's okay, Sara. I'm glad you're safe. But you have to listen to me and be careful. And you have to keep your ticket. The balls are not worth it. The zoo is much better. You'll see."
+
+Sara nods and says, "Okay, Mom. I'll listen to you. And I'll keep my ticket. I want to go to the zoo."
+
+Mom smiles and says, "Good girl. I love you, Sara."
+
+"I love you too, Mom," Sara says.
+
+Ben looks at Sara and says, "I love you too, Sara. And I love the zoo. And I love the balls. But I love you more."
+
+Sara smiles and says, "I love you too, Ben. And I love the zoo. And I love the balls. But I love you more."
+
+They hug each other and look out the window. The light turns green and the bus moves. They see the balls roll away and the truck drive away. They see a big sign that says, "Welcome to the zoo."
+
+They clap their hands and say, "Yay, we're here!"
+
+They hold their tickets and follow Mom. They are ready to see the animals. They are happy.
+Lila and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They liked to swing, slide and run. But their favorite thing was to look for stones. They wanted to find the perfect stone.
+
+One day, they saw a big, shiny stone under a tree. It was round and smooth and sparkled in the sun. "Wow, look at that stone!" Lila said. "It's the perfect stone!" Ben said. They both ran to the stone and reached for it at the same time.
+
+But then they stopped. They looked at each other. They both wanted the stone, but they only had one stone. "I saw it first!" Lila said. "No, I saw it first!" Ben said. They started to pull and tug on the stone. They were angry and sad.
