+Then, they heard a voice. It was their mom. She said, "What is going on here? Why are you fighting?"
+
+Lily and Tom told their mom what happened. Their mom was not happy. She said, "Tom, you were not polite. You did not take turns. You did not share. You made Lily cry. That is not how you play a game. You have to give the teddy bear to Lily. She deserves it more."
+
+Tom did not want to give the teddy bear to Lily. He said, "But I won the game. I knocked down more bottles."
+
+Their mom said, "No, you did not win the game. You broke the rules. You were selfish. You have to say sorry to Lily and give her the teddy bear. That is the right thing to do."
+
+Tom realized he was wrong. He felt sorry. He said, "I am sorry, Lily. I was not polite. I was mean. Here, you can have the teddy bear. You played well."
+
+Lily stopped crying. She smiled. She said, "Thank you, Tom. I am sorry I cried. You played well too. Do you want to share the teddy bear?"
+
+Tom smiled too. He said, "Yes, I want to share the teddy bear. You are my friend."
+
+Their mom was proud. She said, "That is very nice of you. You are both polite. You are both winners. Now, let's go and have some cookies."
+Tom and Mia were at the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. They saw some fish and crabs and shells. They also saw some jellyfish. They were pink and purple and shiny. They looked like balloons.
+
+"Can we catch a jellyfish, mom?" Tom asked.
+
+"No, you can't, Tom. Jellyfish can sting you and hurt you. They are not toys. You have to leave them alone," mom said.
+
+"But they are so pretty. I want to touch them," Mia said.
+
+"You can't, Mia. They are dangerous. You have to be patient and wait for something else to play with," dad said.
+
+Tom and Mia were not happy. They wanted to catch a jellyfish. They thought mom and dad were mean. They waited until mom and dad were busy with their bags and towels. Then they ran to the water. They saw a big jellyfish near the shore. They grabbed a bucket and a net.
+
+"Let's catch it, Tom. It will be our pet," Mia said.
+
+"OK, Mia. Be careful. Don't let it touch you," Tom said.
+
+They tried to scoop the jellyfish with the net. But the jellyfish was slippery and wiggly. It slid out of the net and landed on Mia's arm. Mia screamed. The jellyfish stung her. It hurt a lot. She dropped the bucket and the net. She ran to mom and dad.
+
+"Mom, dad, help me! The jellyfish stung me!" Mia cried.
+
+Mom and dad were shocked and angry. They saw the bucket and the net. They knew what Tom and Mia had done. They ran to Mia and checked her arm. It was red and swollen. They wrapped it with a cloth. They took Mia to the car. They drove to the doctor.
+
+Tom felt sorry and scared. He followed them to the car. He wished he had listened to mom and dad. He wished he had been patient. He wished he had not tried to catch a jellyfish. He learned a hard lesson. He hoped Mia would be OK. He hoped mom and dad would forgive him. He hoped he would never see a jellyfish again.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play in the yard. One day, they find an old couch in the trash. It is big and soft and has many holes.
+
+"Let's play on the couch!" Tom says. He climbs on it and jumps up and down. Sam follows him and they have fun.
+
+But the couch is very old and dirty. It has bugs and mold and bad smells. It starts to rot and fall apart. The brothers do not see this. They are too busy playing.
+
+Mom sees them from the window. She is angry and scared. She runs out and yells at them.
+
+"Get off that couch right now! It is rotten and dangerous! You could get sick or hurt!"
+
+Tom and Sam are surprised and scared. They jump off the couch and run to Mom. She hugs them and takes them inside. She washes them and gives them clean clothes.
+
+She tells them to never play on old things from the trash. They can have fun with their toys and books and games. They say they are sorry and they understand.
+
+They look at the couch from the window. It is ugly and sad. They do not want to play on it anymore. They are glad they have Mom and a nice home.
+Tom and Lily were at the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. They saw many fish and shells and crabs. They also saw a big whale that jumped out of the water and made a loud noise.
+
+"Wow, look at the whale!" Tom said. "It is so big and strong!"
+
+"Yes, it is!" Lily said. "But it is also slow. It cannot run like us."
+
+Tom had an idea. He wanted to joke with Lily. He said, "I bet I can swim faster than the whale. Do you want to race me?"
+
+Lily laughed. She knew Tom was joking. She said, "No, thank you. You are silly, Tom. The whale would win. It has a big tail and fins. You only have arms and legs."
+
+Tom smiled. He liked to make Lily laugh. He said, "You are right, Lily. The whale is faster than me. But I am faster than you. Come on, let's race to the shore!"
+
+Tom and Lily ran to the water and started to swim. They had fun racing and joking. They did not see the whale again, but they heard it say goodbye with a loud noise. They waved to the whale and thanked it for the show. They loved the beach and the whale.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They like to slide and swing and run. They are having fun. But Anna feels something in her tummy. She needs to go to the toilet.
+
+"Ben, I need to go to the toilet. Can you come with me?" Anna asks.
+
+"OK, Anna. Let's go to the toilet. It is over there." Ben says. He points to a small building near the park.
+
+They run to the toilet. But when they get there, they see a sign. The sign says "Closed for cleaning". Anna and Ben are sad. They do not know what to do.
+
+"Maybe we can find another toilet. Let's look around." Ben says.
+
+They look around. But they do not see any other toilet. They see a big tree, a bench, a fountain, a trash can, but no toilet.
+
+Anna feels more and more pressure in her tummy. She starts to cry.
+
+"Ben, I can't hold it anymore. I need to go to the toilet now!" Anna says.
+
+Ben tries to calm her down.
+
+"Anna, don't cry. It's OK. Maybe you can go behind the tree. No one will see you. I will watch for you." Ben says.
+
+Anna decides to listen to Ben. She goes behind the tree. She pulls down her pants. She squats. She tries to be quick. She hopes no one will see her.
+
+But then, she hears a loud noise. She looks up. She sees a big dog. The dog is barking. The dog is running towards her. The dog is angry.
+
+Anna is scared. She screams. She forgets to pull up her pants. She forgets to wipe. She runs away from the dog. But the dog is faster. The dog catches her. The dog bites her. Anna feels pain. She cries more.
+
+Ben hears Anna's scream. He sees the dog. He runs to help her. But he is too late. The dog has already hurt Anna. Ben is scared too. He shouts for help. He hopes someone will come.
+
+But no one comes. Anna and Ben are alone. They are in trouble. They are not successful. They wish they had never gone to the toilet. They wish they had stayed in the park. They wish they had a good ending.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big envelope on a bench. It is red and shiny. Sara wants to open it. Tom says no.
+
+"Maybe it is for someone else. We should return it," Tom says.
+
+"But I want to see what is inside. Maybe it is a present. Maybe it is a game. Maybe it is a surprise," Sara says.
+
+She pulls the envelope from Tom. She tears it open. A loud noise comes out. It is a wild noise. It scares Sara and Tom. They drop the envelope and run away.
+
+The noise is a horn. It is a prank. Someone put it in the envelope to make a joke. But Sara and Tom do not know that. They think it is a monster. They cry and scream. They run to their moms. They are very scared.
+
+The person who made the prank laughs. He picks up the envelope. He looks for another bench. He wants to scare more people. He is very mean.
+Tom and Anna were playing in the park. They liked to look at the trees and the birds and the flowers. They saw a big tree with many leaves and acorns. Tom said, "Do you know what kind of tree this is?" Anna said, "No, I don't. Do you?" Tom said, "Yes, I do. I can guess. It is an oak tree."
+
+Anna said, "How do you know it is an oak tree?" Tom said, "Because it has acorns. Acorns are the seeds of oak trees. They are brown and round and hard. Do you want to see?" Anna said, "Yes, I do. Can you show me?" Tom said, "Sure, I can. Come with me."
+
+Tom and Anna went closer to the tree. They saw some acorns on the ground and some on the branches. Tom picked up an acorn and gave it to Anna. Anna held it in her hand and felt it. She said, "It is heavy and smooth. It has a cap and a stem. It is like a little hat." Tom said, "Yes, it is. Do you like it?" Anna said, "Yes, I do. It is pretty and funny. Can I keep it?" Tom said, "Yes, you can. It is a gift from the oak tree. The oak tree is humble and generous. It shares its seeds with us and the animals. It gives us shade and air and beauty. We should thank the oak tree." Anna said, "Yes, we should. Thank you, oak tree. You are a good friend." Tom and Anna hugged the oak tree and smiled. They were happy and grateful.
+Ben and Lily were eager to go to the park. They put on their hats and shoes and ran to the door. Mommy said, "Wait, you need to hold my hand when we cross the street." Ben and Lily nodded and grabbed Mommy's hand.
+
+At the park, they saw a big slide, a swing, and a sandbox. Ben and Lily smiled and ran to the slide. They took turns going down and laughing. Mommy watched them and smiled too. She said, "You are having so much fun!"
+
+Then, Ben saw a dog. It was brown and fluffy and had a leash. Ben loved dogs. He let go of Mommy's hand and ran to the dog. He said, "Hi, doggy! Can I pet you?" The dog barked and wagged its tail. Ben reached out his hand to touch the dog.
+
+But the dog did not like Ben. It growled and snapped at Ben's hand. Ben screamed and pulled back his hand. It was bleeding and hurt. Mommy ran to Ben and picked him up. She said, "Oh, no, Ben! Are you okay?" She looked at the dog and its owner. The owner said, "I'm sorry, he doesn't like strangers. You should have asked me first."
+
+Mommy was angry and scared. She said, "You should have kept your dog away from the children. He could have bitten him worse." She hugged Ben and said, "Let's go home, Ben. We need to clean your wound and put a bandage on it." Ben cried and said, "I don't like dogs anymore. They are mean." Mommy said, "Not all dogs are mean, Ben. But you have to be careful and ask before you touch them." She held Ben's hand and walked to the car. Lily followed them and looked sad. She said, "Bye, park. Bye, slide. Bye, swing. Bye, sandbox." She did not smile.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the living room. They found a microphone on the table. It was shiny and black and had a long wire.
+
+"Let's sing a song!" Lily said. She picked up the microphone and started to sing. "Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are..."
+
+Tom wanted to sing too. He tried to grab the microphone from Lily. "No, it's my turn!" he said. "Give it to me!"
+
+Lily did not want to share. She held the microphone tight. "No, it's mine!" she said. "You can't have it!"
+
+They pulled and tugged on the microphone. They did not see that the wire was tangled around a lamp. The lamp fell over and broke. Glass and sparks flew everywhere.
+
+"Uh-oh!" Tom and Lily said. They dropped the microphone and ran away.
+
+Mom and Dad heard the noise and came to the living room. They saw the mess and the broken lamp. They were very angry.
+
+"Who did this?" Mom asked. "Who broke the lamp and the microphone?"
+
+Tom and Lily looked at each other. They did not want to tell the truth. They were scared.
+
+They pointed at the cat. "It was him!" they said. "He was playing with the microphone and he knocked over the lamp!"
+
+The cat was sleeping on the couch. He did not know what was going on. He opened his eyes and meowed.
+
+Mom and Dad did not believe Tom and Lily. They knew they were lying. They were very disappointed.
+
+They removed the microphone and the lamp from the living room. They told Tom and Lily to go to their rooms. They said they would not get any dessert or any toys for a week.
+
+Tom and Lily cried. They wished they had shared the microphone and played nicely. They learned a hard lesson. They felt very sorry.
+Lila and Tom were playing with their toys in the garden. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be different animals. Lila had a pink bunny and Tom had a green dinosaur.
+
+"Rawr! I am a big dinosaur and I will destroy everything!" Tom said, stomping his feet and waving his dinosaur.
+
+"No, no, no! You can't destroy my bunny, she is my friend!" Lila said, holding her bunny close to her chest.
+
+"Too bad, I am hungry and I need to eat!" Tom said, moving his dinosaur closer to Lila's bunny.
+
+Lila was scared and angry. She looked around and saw a big iron on the table. It was shiny and heavy. She had an idea. She ran to the table and grabbed the iron.
+
+"Stop, stop, stop!" she shouted, swinging the iron at Tom's dinosaur.
+
+Tom was surprised and scared. He dropped his dinosaur and backed away.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! That hurts, that hurts, that hurts!" he cried, rubbing his head.
+
+Lila felt sorry for Tom. She put down the iron and hugged him.
+
+"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" she said, kissing his cheek.
+
+"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay!" he said, hugging her back.
+
+They looked at their toys. The dinosaur had a big dent and the bunny had a torn ear.
+
+"They are not healthy, they are not healthy, they are not healthy!" they said together.
+
+They decided to take their toys to their mom and ask her to fix them. They held hands and walked to the house.
+
+"Mom, mom, mom! We need your help, we need your help, we need your help!" they said, showing their toys.
+
+Mom smiled and took their toys. She said she would sew the bunny and hammer the dinosaur.
+
+"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" they said, hugging her.
+
+They learned to be careful with their toys and not to destroy them. They also learned to share and play nicely. They were happy and healthy.
+One day, Ben and Lily went to the park with their mom. They saw a big tree with many flowers and bees. Ben wanted to pick a flower for his mom, but Lily said, "No, Ben, that is not nice. The bees need the flowers for their honey. If you take a flower, they will be angry and sting you."
+
+But Ben did not listen to Lily. He ran to the tree and tried to tear a flower. He did not see the hive on the branch. The bees saw him and buzzed loudly. They flew out of the hive and chased Ben. Ben was scared and cried, "Help, help, the bees are after me!"
+
+Lily and their mom heard Ben and ran to him. Their mom waved her arms and shooed the bees away. She hugged Ben and checked him for stings. Luckily, he was not hurt. But he was very sorry and ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry, mom, I'm sorry, Lily, I'm sorry, bees. I was wrong to tear the flower. I should have listened to Lily. She was alert and smart. I will not do it again."
+
+Their mom smiled and said, "It's okay, Ben, I'm glad you are okay. You learned a lesson today. The bees work hard to make honey and we should respect them and their flowers. Next time, you can ask me before you pick a flower. And you should always listen to your sister. She loves you and wants to protect you."
+
+Ben nodded and said, "Yes, mom, I will. Thank you, mom. Thank you, Lily. I love you both." He gave them a hug and a kiss. Then they went home and had some honey on toast. Ben thought it was the best honey ever. He was happy and grateful. He learned to be kind and careful.

+
+One day, Lily wanted to cook by herself. She saw a big bowl of eggs on the table. She thought they would make a good cake. She took the bowl and climbed on a chair. She tried to crack the eggs, but they were slippery and hard. She dropped them on the floor. They made a big mess.
+
+Mom came into the kitchen and saw the eggs. She was angry. She said, "Lily, what did you do? You can't cook by yourself. You need to ask me first. You made a big mess. You need to help me clean it up."
+
+Lily felt sad. She said, "I'm sorry, Mom. I wanted to make a cake for you. I wanted to surprise you. I wanted to cook like you."
+
+Mom hugged Lily. She said, "I know, Lily. I love you. But cooking is not easy. You need to learn how to do it. You need to be careful and safe. You need to follow the rules. Maybe next time we can cook together. How about we go to the place where they sell cakes and buy one for now? They have amazing cakes there."
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Okay, Mom. I like that place. They have amazing cakes. Can we get the one with the pink frosting and the sprinkles?"
+
+Mom said, "Sure, Lily. Let's go. And next time, we can make our own amazing cake."

+
+One day, Sam goes to the library with his mom. He sees a big book with a picture of a dog on the cover. He wants to read it. He asks his mom, "Can I read this book, please?"
+
+His mom looks at the book. She says, "This book is too hard for you, Sam. It has many big words that you don't know. And it is not a story book. It is a book about how to train dogs."
+
+Sam says, "But I like dogs. And I want to learn how to train them. Please, mom, let me read this book."
+
+His mom says, "Okay, Sam, you can try to read this book. But you have to be careful. This book is very modern. It has many pictures and buttons that make sounds and lights. You have to treat it gently. And you have to return it to the library when you are done."
+
+Sam says, "Thank you, mom. I will be careful." He takes the book and goes to a table. He opens the book and sees a picture of a dog sitting on a mat. He presses a button and hears a voice say, "Sit. Good dog. Give me your paw. Good dog. Now, heel. Good dog."
+

+Anna and Ben are at the park with their mom. They want to play on the slide, but there is a long line of kids waiting. Anna and Ben are bored. They look around and see a big tree.
+
+"Let's go to the tree," Anna says to Ben. "Maybe we can find something fun there."
+
+"OK," Ben says. They run to the tree and see a hole in the trunk. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Let's peek," Anna says. She puts her eye to the hole and gasps. "Ben, look! There is a bird nest in here! And there are eggs!"
+
+"Wow!" Ben says. He takes his turn to peek. He sees the eggs too. They are blue and speckled. "How many eggs are there?"
+
+"One, two, three, four," Anna counts. "Four eggs! I wonder when they will hatch."

+Sam was a little boy who liked to play with water. He had a spray bottle that he filled with water and took everywhere. He liked to spray water on the plants, on the windows, on the toys and sometimes on the cat.
+
+One day, Sam went with his mom to her office. Mom had to work on her computer and talk to some people. Sam was bored. He looked around the office and saw many things. He saw papers, pens, books, phones and a big bald man.
+
+The bald man was mom's boss. He was very busy and serious. He did not smile or say hello to Sam. He only looked at his computer and talked on his phone. Sam thought the bald man needed some fun. He decided to spray some water on him.
+
+Sam took his spray bottle and sneaked behind the bald man's chair. He aimed at his shiny head and squeezed the bottle. Water came out and wet the bald man's head. The bald man jumped and shouted.
+
+"Hey! What are you doing? Who sprayed me?" he said, very angry.
+
+Sam giggled and ran away. He thought it was funny. Mom saw what happened and was very sorry. She ran after Sam and caught him. She apologized to the bald man and scolded Sam.
+
+"Sam, that was very naughty. You should not spray water on people. You made the bald man wet and mad. You have to say sorry to him and give him your spray bottle," she said, very stern.
+
+Sam felt bad. He did not mean to make the bald man wet and mad. He just wanted to make him happy. He said sorry to the bald man and gave him his spray bottle. The bald man took the spray bottle and looked at Sam.
+
+"Sorry, Sam. I was too busy and serious. I forgot to have fun. Thank you for reminding me. Here, you can have your spray bottle back. But promise me you will only spray water on things, not on people. Deal?" he said, more kindly.
+
+Sam nodded and smiled. He promised to only spray water on things, not on people. He took his spray bottle back and hugged the bald man. The bald man hugged him back and smiled. He felt more happy and relaxed. He thanked mom and Sam for coming to his office. He said they could come again anytime. Mom and Sam said goodbye and left the office. They were happy too. They learned a lesson that day. Sometimes, a little water can make a big difference.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a big fly buzzing around the flowers. Lila wanted to catch the fly. She ran after it with her net.
+
+"Come here, fly!" she shouted. "I want to see you!"
+
+Ben followed her with his jar. He wanted to keep the fly as a pet. He thought it was pretty and shiny.
+
+"Wait for me, Lila!" he called. "We can share the fly!"
+
+But the fly was too fast and smart. It flew away from Lila and Ben. It landed on a cake that Mom had left on the table. The cake was delicious. It had cream and strawberries on top. The fly licked the cream with its tongue.
+
+"Yum, yum!" it said. "This is the best cake ever!"
+
+Mom saw the fly on the cake. She was angry. She grabbed a cloth and ran to the table. She tried to wipe the fly off the cake.
+
+"Shoo, shoo!" she said. "Get away from my cake, you dirty fly!"
+
+But the fly was too quick and clever. It flew away from Mom. It flew back to the garden. It laughed at Lila and Ben.
+
+"Ha, ha!" it said. "You can't catch me, you silly kids! I had a taste of your cake, and it was delicious!"
+
+Lila and Ben were sad and mad. They wanted to catch the fly and eat the cake. They looked at Mom. Mom looked at them. She smiled.
+
+"Don't worry, my loves," she said. "There is plenty of cake left for you. Come and have a slice. It is delicious!"
+
+Lila and Ben smiled too. They forgot about the fly. They ran to the table. They ate the cake. It was delicious. They thanked Mom.
+
+The fly watched them from a flower. It was full and happy. It flew away to find another cake.

+
+One day, a big storm came and the wind was very strong. It blew their tent away and broke some of their flowers. Mia and Ben were sad and scared. They ran inside the house and hugged their mom.
+
+"Mom, our tent and our flowers are gone!" Mia cried.
+
+"I know, sweetie, I'm sorry. The storm was very bad," Mom said.
+
+"Can we get them back?" Ben asked.
+
+"Well, we can try to find the tent, but it might be far away. And we can plant new flowers, but it will take some time," Mom said.
+
+"Can we pray for them?" Mia asked.
+
+"Of course, we can. Praying is talking to God and asking for his help and love," Mom said.
+
+"Will God hear us?" Ben asked.
+
+"Yes, he will. He always hears us and cares for us," Mom said.
+
+"Okay, let's pray then," Mia said.

+
+"Wow, God answered our prayers!" Ben said.

+They hugged their mom and ran to their tent. They played happily in the garden, thanking God for his goodness and grace.
+Tommy loved to go to the zoo with his mom. He liked to see all the different animals and hear their sounds. He was very excite when his mom told him they were going to see the owl today. He had never seen an owl before.
+
+They walked to the bird house and looked for the owl. Tommy saw a big cage with a sign that said "owl". He ran to the cage and looked inside. He saw a brown and white bird with big eyes and a sharp beak. It was sitting on a branch and looking at him.
+
+"Hello, owl!" Tommy said. "You are very pretty. Can you fly?"
+
+The owl blinked and tilted its head. Then it opened its wings and flapped them. It made a loud sound like "hoo-hoo".
+
+"Wow!" Tommy said. "You can fly and talk. You are very smart."
+
+The owl flew to the front of the cage and looked at Tommy. It reached out its foot and touched Tommy's hand. Its foot was smooth and had sharp claws.
+
+"Ouch!" Tommy said. "You are very strong. But you are also very soft."

+His mom laughed and shook her head. She hugged Tommy and said, "No, sweetie. The owl belongs to the zoo. But we can come and visit it again. Maybe it will remember you."
+
+Tommy nodded and waved to the owl. He said, "Bye-bye, owl. Thank you for being my friend. I will see you soon."
+
+The owl made one more sound like "hoo-hoo". It watched Tommy and his mom leave. It was glad to meet Tommy too.
+Tim and Liz are brother and sister. They like to play in the yard with their brown dog, Spot. Spot is big and friendly. He likes to chase balls and sticks.
+
+One day, Tim and Liz find a big stick in the yard. They want to play with it, but it is too heavy for them. They ask Spot to help them.
+
+"Spot, can you carry this stick for us?" Tim says.
+
+Spot barks and wags his tail. He grabs the stick with his mouth and lifts it up. He is very strong.
+
+"Wow, Spot, you are amazing!" Liz says.
+
+Spot is happy. He runs with the stick in his mouth. He wants to show Tim and Liz his bed. His bed is a soft blanket in a corner of the porch. He likes to sleep there at night.
+
+Spot drops the stick on his bed. He invites Tim and Liz to join him. He makes room for them on his blanket.
+
+"Thank you, Spot, for carrying the stick for us. Can we share your bed with you?" Liz says.
+
+Spot nods and licks their faces. He is glad to have them as his friends.
+
+Tim and Liz cuddle with Spot on his bed. They feel warm and cozy. They tell Spot stories and sing songs. They have a lot of fun.
+
+The end.
+Tommy was a nosy boy. He liked to open things that did not belong to him. He opened his mom's purse, his dad's toolbox, his sister's diary, and his brother's toys. He did not care if they got angry or sad. He just wanted to see what was inside.
+
+One night, Tommy saw a big box in the living room. It had a red ribbon and a tag that said "Do not open until Christmas". Tommy was very curious. He wanted to know what was in the box. He thought it was a present for him. He sneaked out of his bed and went to the living room. He grabbed the box and opened it.
+
+But it was not a present. It was a nightmare. Inside the box, there was a scary clown with sharp teeth and a big knife. It jumped out of the box and laughed. "Surprise, Tommy! I've been waiting for you!" it said. It grabbed Tommy and dragged him into the box. Tommy screamed and cried, but no one heard him. The box closed and the clown took him away.
+
+The next morning, Tommy's family looked for him. They saw the box in the living room, but it was empty. They did not know where Tommy was. They were very worried and sad. They called the police, but they could not find him. They never saw Tommy again.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not be nosy. Do not open things that do not belong to you. You might find something you do not want to see.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They had a big box that they wanted to make into a house. They used scissors to cut holes for windows and a door. They also cut some paper to make curtains and a roof.
+
+"Look at our house!" Tom said. "It is very nice. We can go inside and pretend we live here."
+
+"Yes, let's go!" Lily said. She picked up her teddy bear and followed Tom into the box. They closed the door and sat on the floor.
+
+They had fun playing in their house. They pretended to cook, read, and sleep. They also sang songs and told stories. They laughed and smiled.
+
+But then, Tom felt something strange. He felt dizzy. His head was spinning and his tummy was hurting. He did not like it.
+
+"Lily, I don't feel good," he said. "I think I need to go out."
+
+"What's wrong, Tom?" Lily asked. She was worried. She saw that Tom was pale and sweaty.
+
+"I don't know. I feel dizzy. Maybe we cut too much paper. Maybe the scissors made me sick."
+
+Tom opened the door and crawled out of the box. He lay down on the grass and closed his eyes. Lily came out too and hugged her teddy bear. She did not know what to do.
+
+She saw their mom coming from the house. She ran to her and told her what happened.
+
+"Mom, Tom is dizzy. He needs help. He thinks the scissors made him sick."
+
+Mom looked at Tom and saw that he was not well. She picked him up and carried him to the house. She told Lily to bring the scissors and the paper.
+
+"Don't worry, Lily. Tom is not sick from the scissors. He is sick from something else. Maybe he ate something bad or he is too hot. I will take him to the doctor and he will be fine. You did a good job telling me. You are a good sister."
+
+Lily nodded and followed Mom to the house. She hoped Tom would be fine. She also hoped they could play in their box house again. She liked their house. It was very nice.
+Rex was a big dog who liked to run and play. He had a lot of toys, but his favorite was a big bone. He would chew on it, bury it, and dig it up again. He was very happy with his bone.
+
+One day, he saw a little dog in his yard. The little dog was hungry and cold. He looked at Rex's bone and wanted to have some. He came closer and said, "Hello, big dog. Can I have some of your bone? I have nothing to eat."
+
+Rex was angry and growled. He did not want to share his bone. He said, "No, this is my bone. Go away, little dog. Find your own bone." He bared his teeth and chased the little dog away.
+
+The little dog ran away and hid. He was sad and scared. He wished he had a friend.
+
+Rex went back to his bone and chewed on it. He felt proud and strong. He thought he did not need anyone. He was fine by himself.
+
+But soon, he felt bored and lonely. He had no one to play with or talk to. He looked around and saw no other dogs. He felt sleepy and lay down next to his bone. He closed his eyes and tried to sleep.
+
+But he could not sleep. He heard a noise and opened his eyes. He saw a big cat in his yard. The cat was hungry and mean. He looked at Rex's bone and wanted to have it. He came closer and said, "Hello, big dog. I see you have a nice bone. I think I will take it."
+
+Rex was scared and barked. He tried to protect his bone. He said, "No, this is my bone. Go away, big cat. Leave me alone." He bared his teeth and fought the cat.
+
+But the cat was faster and stronger. He scratched Rex and bit him. He took the bone and ran away.
+
+Rex was hurt and sad. He had lost his bone and his pride. He wished he had been nicer to the little dog. He wished he had a friend.
+
+The moral of the story is: It is better to share and be kind than to be greedy and mean. You never know when you might need a friend.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play pretend. Today they pretend to be opera singers. They use a big sheet to cover the sofa. The sofa is their stage. They wear hats and scarves and hold spoons as microphones.
+
+Tom sings first. He sings very loud and high. He makes funny faces and moves his arms. Lily claps and laughs. She thinks Tom is funny. She says, "Bravo, Tom! You are a great opera singer!"
+
+Then Lily sings. She sings very soft and low. She makes funny sounds and winks her eye. Tom giggles and cheers. He thinks Lily is funny. He says, "Bravo, Lily! You are a great opera singer too!"
+
+They take turns singing and clapping. They have a lot of fun. They pretend to be opera singers until their mom calls them for lunch. They leave the sheet on the sofa and run to the kitchen. They are hungry and happy. They love to play pretend.
+Anna and Ben love to race each other. They run fast in the park, on the grass, and on the path. They laugh and shout and have fun.
+
+One day, they see a big tree with many shiny things on it. They are curious and want to look closer. They run to the tree and see that the shiny things are apples. They are red and yellow and green.
+
+"Wow, look at these apples!" Anna says. "They look so yummy!"
+
+"Let's pick some and eat them!" Ben says. "Maybe they are magic apples!"
+
+They reach for the apples, but as soon as they touch them, they feel a shock. The apples are not yummy, they are bitter and sour. They make their mouths hurt and their eyes water.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Anna and Ben cry. "These apples are bad! They are not magic, they are mean!"
+
+They drop the apples and run away from the tree. They see a sign that says: "Do not touch the apples. They are electric. They are for a science project."
+
+They feel silly and sorry. They did not read the sign. They did not listen to the rules.
+
+They hug each other and say: "We are sorry, we made a mistake. We will not touch the apples again. We will race somewhere else."
+
+They run to the swings and the slide and the sandbox. They forget about the apples and have fun again. They are happy and smart. They are good friends.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys. They have a big box of toys in their room. Sara likes dolls and Ben likes cars.
+
+One day, they find a new toy in the box. It is a furry bear. The bear has a zip on its back. Sara and Ben are curious. They want to see what is inside the bear.
+
+"Can I open the zip?" Sara asks.
+
+"No, it is my turn. I found the bear first," Ben says.
+
+They start to pull the bear from each other. They are not nice. They are angry.
+
+The bear does not like it. The bear starts to talk. It says, "Stop! Stop! You are hurting me. I am not a toy. I am a real bear. I work for the zoo. I was hiding in the box to escape from the bad people. They want to take me away from my family. Please, let me go."
+
+Sara and Ben are surprised. They are scared. They drop the bear. They say, "Sorry, sorry, we did not know. You can go. We will help you."
+
+They take the bear to the window. They open the window. They see a big truck outside. The truck has a sign that says, "Zoo". The bear sees the truck. It says, "Thank you, thank you, you are kind. That is my truck. That is where my family is. Goodbye, Sara and Ben. Maybe we can be friends someday."
+
+The bear jumps out of the window. It runs to the truck. It finds its family. It is happy.
+
+Sara and Ben watch the bear. They are happy too. They hug each other. They say, "We learned something today. We should not fight. We should share. We should be nice to animals. They have feelings too."
+Ben and Lily were playing in the backyard. They saw a big machine with wheels and pipes. It was making loud noises and smoke.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"It is a machine that makes hot air," Ben said. "Dad uses it to dry the clothes."
+
+"Can we touch it?" Lily wondered.
+
+"No, it is very hot. It can hurt us," Ben warned.
+
+They went closer to the machine. They saw a red button on it. Lily wanted to press it.
+
+"Look, a button!" Lily said. "I want to press it."
+
+"No, don't do that!" Ben shouted. "It can make the machine stop working. Dad will be angry."
+
+But Lily did not listen. She reached for the button. Ben tried to stop her. He grabbed her hand and pulled her away.
+
+"Ow, you hurt me!" Lily cried.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. But I had to prevent you from pressing the button. It is not a toy. It is a machine that does a job," Ben explained.
+
+Lily rubbed her hand. She looked at the machine. She saw the clothes hanging on a line. They were moving in the hot air.
+
+"I understand, Ben. I'm sorry, too. I did not know it was important. Can we play with something else?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, Lily. Let's go to the sandbox. We can make a castle there," Ben suggested.
+
+They ran to the sandbox. They forgot about the machine. They had fun playing with the sand.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play at the zoo. They see many animals. They see lions, monkeys, and zebras. But their favorite animals are the penguins.
+

+
+"Look, there is a wall next to the pool. We can climb the wall and see the penguins better," Tom says.
+
+"OK, let's climb the wall. But we have to be careful. The wall is high and the water is deep," Mia says.
+
+They hold hands and climb the wall. They are very quiet. They do not want the zookeeper to see them. They reach the top of the wall. They see the penguins very close. They smile and wave.
+
+"Hello, penguins. We are Tom and Mia. We are your friends," Tom says.
+
+One of the penguins looks at them. It makes a funny noise. It sounds like "honk, honk, honk". Tom and Mia laugh. They think the penguin is talking to them.
+
+"Hello, penguin. What is your name? Do you like the water?" Mia says.
+
+The penguin honks again. It waddles to the edge of the pool. It jumps into the water. It splashes Tom and Mia. They get wet. They scream and giggle.
+
+"Wow, the penguin is playing with us. It is so fun," Tom says.
+
+"Yes, the penguin is fun. But we should go now. The zookeeper might come soon. We do not want to get in trouble," Mia says.
+
+They climb down the wall. They run to their parents. They are happy. They had a great time with the penguin. They will come back to the zoo soon. They will say hello to the penguin again.
+Lily and Ben were twins who loved to ride their bikes. One day, their mom took them to the harbor, where they could see big boats and water. Lily and Ben were very excited and wanted to ride their bikes along the harbor.
+
+"Look, mom, a boat!" Lily shouted, pointing to a blue and white boat with a flag.
+
+"Yes, that's a boat, Lily. Do you like it?" mom asked.
+
+"I like it very much. Can we ride on it?" Lily asked.

+
+"Sure, you can see my fish. Come here and I'll show you." the man said.
+

+
+"Wow, you have many fish. They are very pretty. Can I touch one?" Ben asked.
+
+"Of course, you can touch one. But be careful, they are slippery and some have sharp fins." the man warned.
+
+Ben reached into the bucket and touched a fish. It was cold and wet and wiggled in his hand. Ben giggled and put the fish back.
+
+"Thank you, sir. You are very nice." Ben said.
+
+"You're welcome, little boy. You are very polite. Have a good day." the man said.
+
+Ben got back on his bike and rode to catch up with mom and Lily. They had a fun day at the harbor, riding their bikes and looking at the boats.
+Mia likes to make bubbles. She has a big bottle of soap and a wand. She dips the wand in the soap and blows. Out come many bubbles. They are round and shiny and float in the air. Mia laughs and claps her hands.
+
+But today, Mia is anxious. She is going to the doctor for a check-up. She does not like the doctor. He has a white coat and a stethoscope. He makes her open her mouth and look in her ears. He gives her a shot. It hurts.
+
+Mia's mom knows she is anxious. She says, "Don't worry, Mia. The doctor is nice. He will help you stay healthy. And after the check-up, we can go to the park and make bubbles. How does that sound?"
+
+Mia thinks for a moment. She likes the park. She likes to make bubbles. She nods her head. She says, "OK, mom. Let's go to the doctor. But can I bring my bottle of soap and my wand?"
+
+Mia's mom smiles. She says, "Of course, Mia. You can bring your bubble things. Maybe you can even make some bubbles for the doctor. He might like that."
+
+Mia feels a little better. She hugs her mom. She grabs her bottle of soap and her wand. She says, "Come on, mom. Let's go make bubbles."
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with blocks, dolls and cars. They always shared their toys and helped each other. They made each other smile.
+
+One day, they went to the park with their moms. They saw a big slide. Lily wanted to try it, but Ben was scared. He said it was too high and fast. Lily said, "Don't worry, Ben. I will support you. We can go together. It will be fun." Ben nodded and held Lily's hand.
+
+They climbed the stairs and sat on the slide. Lily counted to three and they slid down. They felt the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They laughed and screamed. They reached the bottom and hugged. They were so happy. They looked at their moms and saw them smile.
+
+They went to the slide again and again. They had a perfect day. They learned that being brave and supporting each other can make them smile. They were best friends.
+Tom and Lily like to play with blocks. They build many structures with different shapes and colors. They make towers, bridges, houses and castles. They are proud of their structures. They think they are perfect.
+
+But Sam does not like to play with blocks. He likes to destroy things. He waits until Tom and Lily are not looking. Then he runs to their structures and knocks them down. He laughs when he sees the blocks fall. He thinks it is fun to destroy.
+
+Tom and Lily hear the noise and turn around. They see their structures broken and Sam smiling. They are very sad and angry. They worked hard to make their structures perfect. They do not like Sam. They tell him to go away.
+
+Sam does not care. He looks for more structures to destroy. He sees a big castle that belongs to Ben. Ben is not there. He is playing with his truck. Sam runs to the castle and pushes it with his hands. He destroys the castle.
+
+But Ben sees him. He runs to his castle and sees the mess. He is very sad and angry. He loves his castle. He thinks it is perfect. He does not like Sam. He tells him to stop.
+
+Sam does not stop. He laughs and tries to destroy more blocks. But Ben is bigger and stronger than Sam. He grabs Sam and pushes him away. He tells him to leave his blocks alone. He tells him to play nice or go home.
+
+Sam is scared and sorry. He sees that he made everyone sad and angry. He sees that he ruined their structures. He does not think it is fun to destroy anymore. He says sorry to Ben and to Tom and Lily. He asks them to forgive him.
+
+Ben and Tom and Lily are still sad and angry. But they are also kind. They see that Sam is sorry. They forgive him. They tell him to play with them. They tell him to help them build new structures. They tell him to make them perfect. Sam agrees. He learns to play with blocks. He learns to build and not to destroy. He makes new friends. He is happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had many toys: cars, dolls, blocks, balls, and books. They liked to make noises and stories with their toys, but they did not like to clean up. The living room was very messy, with toys everywhere.
+
+"Tom, Lily, it's time to sort your toys and put them away!" Mom called from the kitchen. "We have guests coming soon, and they need a place to sit."
+
+Tom and Lily did not want to sort their toys. They wanted to keep playing. They ignored Mom and pretended they did not hear her.
+
+"Tom, Lily, did you hear me?" Mom called again, louder. "You have five minutes to sort your toys and put them on the bench, or else I will take them away!"
+
+Tom and Lily still did not listen. They thought Mom was joking. They laughed and played more.
+
+Mom came to the living room and saw the mess. She was very angry. She did not joke. She took a big bag and started to put all the toys in it.
+
+"Mom, no, stop!" Tom and Lily cried. "Those are our toys! We love them!"
+
+"Too late," Mom said. "You did not sort your toys and put them on the bench, like I asked. You did not listen. Now you have no toys. Maybe you will learn to be more tidy and respectful."
+
+Tom and Lily were very sad. They had no toys to play with. They had no stories to make. They had no fun. They wished they had sorted their toys and put them on the bench. But it was too late. The end.
+Tom and Lily were friends who liked to play on the beach. They found a big boat with a shiny anchor. They wanted to go inside and see what was there.
+
+"Let's go, Tom. Maybe we can find some treasure!" Lily said.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. The boat looks old and dirty. Maybe it is not safe," Tom said.
+
+"Don't be scared, Tom. I trust you and you trust me. We can do it together," Lily said.
+
+Tom and Lily climbed on the boat and looked around. They saw some boxes and bags. They opened them and found many things. They found clothes, toys, books, and money. They were very happy.
+
+"Wow, Lily. We are so lucky. We are wealthy now. We can buy anything we want," Tom said.
+
+"Yes, Tom. We are wealthy. But we have to be careful. Maybe someone will come and take our things. We have to hide them," Lily said.
+
+Tom and Lily took some of the things and put them in their pockets. They decided to leave the rest on the boat and come back later. They jumped off the boat and ran to the shore.
+
+But they did not see the big wave that was coming. The wave hit the boat and made it move. The anchor broke and the boat started to drift away. Tom and Lily watched in horror as their treasure was taken by the sea.
+
+"Tom, Lily. What are you doing here?" They heard a voice behind them. It was their mom. She was angry.
+
+"Mom, we found a boat. We found treasure. But the wave took it away," Lily said.
+
+"A boat? Treasure? What are you talking about? You are lying. You are in big trouble. You know you are not allowed to go near the water. You could have drowned. Come with me. We are going home. Now," Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily followed their mom. They were sad and scared. They lost their treasure. They lost their fun. They lost their trust.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and trucks. One day, they go on a tour with their moms. They see many big and small animals in the zoo.
+
+"Look, Sam, a lion!" Tom says. "He is so big and strong. I want to own him."
+
+"No, Tom, you can't own a lion," Sam says. "He is wild and dangerous. He belongs to the zoo."
+
+"But I like him so much," Tom says. "He is so cool and brave. I want to touch him."
+
+Tom runs to the fence of the lion's cage. He tries to reach his hand inside. Sam and their moms see him and shout.
+
+"Tom, stop! Come back!" they say. "It is not safe to touch a lion. He can bite you or scratch you. He is not a toy."
+
+Tom does not listen. He wants to pet the lion. The lion sees Tom and growls. He shows his big teeth and claws. He jumps to the fence and tries to catch Tom.
+
+Tom is scared. He screams and runs away. He falls and hurts his knee. He cries and says he is sorry.
+
+Sam and their moms run to Tom. They hug him and comfort him. They tell him he is lucky the lion did not hurt him more. They tell him he should never try to own or touch wild animals. They tell him he should respect and love them from a distance.
+
+Tom learns his lesson. He says he will never do that again. He says he will be more careful and kind. He says he is happy to have Sam and their moms as his friends. They are safe and good. They are his own.
+Lila was a lonely girl. She had no friends to play with. She lived in a big house with her mom and dad, but they were always busy. They did not have time to hug her or read her stories.
+
+One day, Lila found a small plant in the garden. It had green leaves and a pink flower. Lila liked the plant. She dug it out of the ground and took it to her room. She put it in a pot and gave it water. She talked to it and sang to it. She named it Rose.
+
+Rose was Lila's friend. She made Lila happy. Every day, Lila looked at Rose and smiled. Rose looked at Lila and nodded. They were not lonely anymore.
+
+But one day, Lila came to her room and saw that Rose was not well. Her leaves were brown and her flower was droopy. Lila was sad. She gave Rose more water and moved her to the window. She hoped that Rose would get better.
+
+But Rose did not get better. She got worse. Her leaves fell off and her flower died. Lila wept. She wept and wept. She hugged Rose and said sorry. She did not know what she did wrong.
+
+Lila's mom heard Lila weep. She came to her room and saw Lila and Rose. She felt sorry for Lila. She hugged her and said, "It's not your fault, Lila. Rose was not a happy plant. She needed her root in the ground. She needed the sun and the rain. She needed other plants to talk to. She was lonely in the pot."
+
+Lila looked at her mom and said, "But I was lonely too. Rose was my friend. She made me happy."
+
+Lila's mom said, "I know, Lila. And I'm sorry I was not a good mom. I was too busy. I did not see how lonely you were. I did not hug you or read you stories. I did not make you happy."
+
+Lila said, "It's okay, mom. I love you."
+
+Lila's mom said, "I love you too, Lila. And I want to make you happy. How about we go to the garden and plant Rose in the ground? Maybe she will grow again. And maybe we can find some other plants to be her friends. And maybe we can find some other friends for you too. Would you like that, Lila?"
+
+Lila nodded. She wiped her tears and smiled. She said, "Yes, mom. I would like that very much."
+
+Lila and her mom took Rose to the garden and planted her in the ground. They gave her water and said goodbye. They hoped that Rose would be happy. Then they looked around and saw many other plants and flowers. They saw some birds and butterflies. They saw some children playing. They felt the sun and the breeze. They felt happy.
+
+They were not lonely anymore.
+Mark was a boy who liked to draw. He had many colors of pens, but his favorite was yellow. He used his yellow pen to draw suns, stars, flowers, and happy faces. He filled his papers with yellow marks.
+
+One day, he went to the park with his mom. He saw a big wall with no pictures on it. He thought it was too plain and boring. He wanted to make it pretty with his yellow pen. He asked his mom if he could draw on the wall. His mom said no.
+
+"Why not?" Mark asked.
+
+"Because it is not our wall. It belongs to someone else. We have to respect other people's things. If you draw on the wall, you will make a mess and make them angry. How would you feel if someone drew on your papers?" his mom said.
+
+Mark thought about it. He did not like it when his sister scribbled on his drawings. He felt sad and mad. He did not want to make someone else feel that way. He said sorry to his mom and put his yellow pen away.
+
+They walked around the park and saw many nice things. They saw birds, flowers, trees, and a pond. Mark saw a duck with yellow feathers. He smiled and pointed at it. His mom smiled too and took out her camera. She asked Mark if he wanted to take a picture of the duck. Mark said yes.
+
+He held the camera and pressed the button. He saw the duck on the screen. He was happy. He had made a yellow mark without making a mess. He showed his mom the picture. His mom hugged him and said he was a good boy.
+
+The moral of the story is: respect other people's property and find creative ways to express yourself. The foreshadowing or setup and payoff is: Mark's love for yellow and his desire to draw on the wall, and his discovery of the duck and the camera.
+Lily liked to play with her mom's vase. It was big and shiny and had flowers on it. She would put it on the table and pretend it was a hat or a drum or a castle. But she had to be careful not to break it or make noise, because her mom would be angry.
+
+One day, Lily was playing with the vase when she heard her mom coming. She quickly hid the vase under the sofa and ran to her room. She hoped her mom would not see it. She waited for a long time, but her mom did not call her. She wondered what was going on.
+
+She sneaked out of her room and went to the living room. She saw her mom looking everywhere for the vase. She looked under the chairs, behind the curtains, in the closet. She looked very worried and sad. She said, "Where is my vase? It was a gift from grandma. It can't just disappear!"
+
+Lily felt sorry for her mom. She decided to tell her the truth. She went to the sofa and pulled out the vase. She said, "Mom, I'm sorry. I was playing with the vase and I hid it under the sofa. I didn't want you to be angry. Here it is. It's not broken."
+
+Her mom was surprised and relieved. She hugged Lily and said, "Thank you for telling me, Lily. I'm not angry. I'm glad you didn't break the vase. But please don't play with it again. It's very special and fragile. You can play with your own toys. They are more fun and safe."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "OK, mom. I'm sorry. I love you." She gave her mom the vase and went to her room. She picked up her teddy bear and said, "You are my favorite toy. You don't disappear. You are not crazy. You are cuddly and soft." She hugged her teddy bear and smiled.
+Tim and Jen are young. They like to play in the park. They see a big tree with many apples. They want to eat the apples.
+
+"Look, Jen, the apples are red and sweet. Let's get some," Tim says.
+
+"But how? The apples are too high. We can't reach them," Jen says.
+
+Tim has an idea. He sees a rope near the tree. He ties the rope to a branch. He says, "We can hang from the rope and grab the apples. Come on, Jen, it will be fun."
+
+Jen is not sure. She thinks the rope is not strong. She thinks the branch is not stable. She thinks the apples are not theirs. She says, "No, Tim, I don't want to. It is not safe. It is not right. The apples belong to someone else. We should not take them."
+
+Tim does not listen. He is bad. He wants the apples. He hangs from the rope and swings to the tree. He reaches for an apple. But then, the rope breaks. The branch snaps. Tim falls to the ground. He hurts his arm. He cries.
+
+Jen runs to Tim. She is scared. She is sorry. She says, "Tim, are you okay? I told you not to do that. You were bad. You should have listened to me."
+
+Tim is sad. He is in pain. He is ashamed. He says, "Jen, you were right. I was bad. I should have listened to you. I am sorry. I learned my lesson. I will not do that again."
+
+Jen hugs Tim. She is glad. She is kind. She says, "Tim, I forgive you. I am your friend. I will help you. Let's go home and tell mom. She will make you feel better."
+
+They walk home together. They leave the apples alone. They know they did wrong. They know they can do better. They know they should be good.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. Today, they see a big flag on a pole. The flag is red, white and blue. It has stars and stripes.
+
+"Look, a flag!" Lily says. "What is it for?"
+
+Ben thinks he knows. He jokes, "It is for the moon. The moon people put it there. They want to say hello."
+
+Lily laughs. She does not believe Ben. She jokes back, "No, it is not for the moon. It is for the sun. The sun people put it there. They want to say good morning."
+
+Ben and Lily joke and laugh. They have fun. They are excited.
+
+Then, they see a man. The man wears a uniform. He has a badge and a hat. He walks to the flag. He salutes.
+
+"Who is he?" Lily asks.
+
+Ben says, "He is a soldier. He works for the flag. He loves the flag. He is proud of the flag."
+
+Lily and Ben watch the soldier. They are quiet. They respect the soldier. They learn about the flag. They are curious.
+Tim and Mia are friends. They like to play games. Today they play a game with cards. The cards have pictures of food on them. Tim has a card with a pepper. Mia has a card with a cake.
+
+"Who has the best card?" Tim asks.
+
+"I do!" Mia says. "Cake is yummy and sweet. Pepper is hot and spicy. I do not like pepper."
+
+"No, I do!" Tim says. "Pepper is interesting and colorful. Cake is boring and white. I do not like cake."
+
+They show their cards to each other. They both make faces. They do not agree.
+
+"Let us ask Mom," Tim says. "She will tell us who has the best card."
+
+They run to the kitchen. Mom is making lunch. She sees their cards.
+
+"Hello, Tim and Mia," Mom says. "What are you playing?"
+
+"We are playing a game with cards," Tim says. "Who has the best card? I have a pepper. Mia has a cake."
+
+Mom smiles. She thinks for a moment.
+
+"Both cards are good," Mom says. "But they are good for different things. Pepper is good for adding flavor to food. Cake is good for having a treat. You can both win the game if you share your cards. How about that?"
+
+Tim and Mia look at each other. They think Mom is smart. They nod.
+
+"Okay, Mom," they say. "We will share our cards. Thank you."
+
+They hug Mom. They go back to their game. They are happy. They are friends.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big case in the attic. The case is old and dusty. It has a lock on it.
+
+"What is in the case?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a treasure!" Mia says.
+
+They try to open the case, but it is too hard. They need a key.
+
+"Where can we find the key?" Tom wonders.
+
+"Maybe it is in the drawer. Let's look!" Mia suggests.
+
+They go to the drawer and search for the key. They find many things, but no key. They find a picture of a man and a woman. They look happy.
+
+"Who are they?" Tom asks.
+
+"I think they are my grandma and grandpa. They lived here before. They are in the sky now." Mia says.
+
+"They are very nice. Do you miss them?" Tom says.
+
+"Yes, I do. They gave me this necklace. It has a star on it. They said it is magic. They said if I believe, it can make my wishes come true." Mia says.
+
+"Wow, that is cool. Can I see it?" Tom says.
+
+Mia shows him the necklace. It is shiny and pretty.
+
+"Can you make a wish with it?" Tom asks.
+
+"Sure, I can. But I have to be careful. I can only make one wish. It has to be a good wish." Mia says.
+
+"What do you wish for?" Tom asks.
+
+Mia thinks for a moment. She looks at the case. She looks at Tom. She looks at the necklace.
+
+"I wish we can open the case and see what is inside. Maybe it is something from grandma and grandpa. Maybe it is something for us. I wish we can be happy and safe." Mia says.
+
+She closes her eyes and holds the necklace. She believes hard.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a click. The case opens by itself. They are surprised and excited. They run to the case and look inside.
+
+What do they see? You can decide!
+Anna and Ben were friends who liked to play soccer. They joined a team and practiced hard. They wanted to win the trophy at the end of the season. The trophy was shiny and big and had a soccer ball on top.
+
+One day, they had a big game against another team. Anna and Ben played well and scored many goals. But the other team also played well and scored many goals. The game was tied and there was only one minute left.
+
+Anna saw a chance to score the final goal. She ran with the ball and kicked it hard. But the ball hit the post and bounced back. Ben was near the goal and could catch the ball. He could score and win the trophy for his team.
+
+But Ben saw that Anna was sad and wanted the trophy more. He remembered that Anna was his friend and that friends share and help each other. He decided to do something nice for Anna. He caught the ball and passed it back to Anna. He said, "Here, Anna, you try again. You can do it!"
+
+Anna was surprised and happy. She thanked Ben and took the ball. She kicked it again and this time, the ball went in the goal. The whistle blew and the game was over. Anna and Ben's team won the trophy!
+
+Anna and Ben hugged and cheered. They lifted the trophy together and showed it to their coach and teammates. Everyone was proud of them and clapped for them. Anna and Ben learned that friendship is more important than winning and that by being kind and generous, they can make each other happy. They also learned that sometimes, you have to release the ball to score the goal.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the big house. They liked to explore the rooms and find new things. One day, they found a door that was locked. They wondered what was inside.
+
+"Maybe it is a chamber with a treasure," Tim said.
+
+"Or a chamber with a monster," Lily said.
+
+They tried to open the door, but it was too hard. They looked for a key, but they could not find one. They were sad and curious.
+
+Then, they heard a noise behind the door. It sounded like a growl. They were scared and ran away.
+
+"Did you hear that?" Tim asked.
+
+"Yes, it was a fat monster," Lily said.
+
+They ran to their mom and told her what they heard. She smiled and hugged them.
+
+"Don't be afraid, my loves. There is no monster in the chamber. It is just the old cat. He likes to sleep there. He is fat and grumpy, but he is not mean. Do you want to see him?"
+
+Tim and Lily nodded. They wanted to see the cat. Mom took them to the door and opened it with a key. Inside, they saw a big, fluffy cat on a bed. He looked at them and meowed.
+
+"See? He is not a monster. He is a cat. His name is Max. You can pet him if you want. He likes that."
+
+Tim and Lily approached the cat slowly. They touched his fur and felt how soft it was. Max purred and licked their hands. They giggled and played with him.
+
+They were happy and not scared anymore. They learned that sometimes things are not what they seem. They learned to believe their mom and not their fears. They learned to love the fat cat in the chamber.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play pretend. She had a big box of costumes and toys that she used to make up stories. One day, she decided to be a lawyer. She put on a suit and a hat and took a book and a pen. She looked in the mirror and said, "I am a lawyer. I help people with problems."
+
+She went to the living room, where her brother Ben was playing with his cars. She said, "Ben, I am a lawyer. Do you have a problem?"
+
+Ben looked at her and said, "No, I don't have a problem. Go away."
+
+Lily said, "But I want to help you. Maybe you have a problem with your cars. Maybe they are broken or dirty or lost."
+
+Ben said, "No, they are not. They are fine. Leave me alone."
+
+Lily said, "But I am a lawyer. I can fix them or clean them or find them."
+
+Ben said, "No, you can't. You are not a lawyer. You are a silly girl. Go away."
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She said, "I am not a silly girl. I am a lawyer. And you are a mean boy. I will sue you."
+
+Ben said, "Sue me? What does that mean?"
+
+Lily said, "It means I will tell the judge that you are bad and you have to give me your cars."
+
+Ben said, "No, you won't. You can't do that. You don't know how."
+
+Lily said, "Yes, I do. I have a book and a pen. I will write a letter to the judge and he will listen to me."
+
+Ben said, "No, he won't. He will laugh at you. You are a silly girl. Go away."
+
+Lily said, "No, I won't. I will roar at you. Roar!"
+
+She opened her mouth and made a loud noise. She sounded like a lion. She hoped to scare Ben and make him give her his cars.
+
+But Ben was not scared. He was amused. He laughed and said, "You are not a lion. You are a silly girl. You can't roar. You sound funny."
+
+Lily felt dizzy. She had roared too hard. She felt her head spin and her stomach ache. She said, "Ow, ow, ow. I don't feel good. I need a hug."
+
+Ben stopped laughing. He saw that Lily was not pretending. She was really sick. He felt sorry for her. He said, "Oh, Lily. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you feel bad. Come here. I will hug you."
+
+He put down his cars and went to Lily. He hugged her and said, "You are not a silly girl. You are a smart girl. You are a good sister. I love you."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, Ben. I love you too. You are a good brother. You are a nice boy."
+
+They hugged and kissed and said sorry. They decided to share their toys and play together. They forgot about being a lawyer and a lion. They were happy.
+The king was spoiled. He always wanted to drink the best juice. He did not like water or milk or tea. He only liked juice from red fruits. He had many bottles of juice in his big room.
+
+One day, a boy came to the palace. He was poor and thirsty. He saw a bottle of juice on a table. He thought the king would not mind if he drank a little. He took the bottle and drank some juice. It was sweet and good.
+
+But the king saw him. He was angry. He shouted at the boy. "That is my juice! You cannot drink it! Go away, you bad boy!"
+
+The boy was scared. He said sorry to the king. He put the bottle back on the table. He ran away from the palace.
+
+The king was still angry. He drank all the juice from the bottle. He did not share it with anyone. He did not know that the juice was bad. It had been on the table for too long. It made him sick.
+
+The king felt bad. He had a tummy ache. He wished he had drank water or milk or tea. He wished he had been nice to the boy. He learned a lesson. He was not spoiled anymore.
+Lily was a lamb who loved to play with her friends in the meadow. She had soft white wool that kept her warm and cozy. One day, she saw a farmer with a big pair of scissors. He came to the sheep and started to cut their wool off. Lily was scared and ran away.
+
+She hid behind a bush and watched as the farmer took away the wool of her friends. She felt sorry for them. They looked cold and naked. She thought they would be embarrassed. She was glad she still had her wool.
+
+But then, she heard a voice. It was her mother. She was calling for her. "Lily, where are you? Come here, please. It's time to give your wool to the farmer. He needs it to make clothes and blankets for people. It's a good thing to do. Don't be afraid. Your wool will grow back soon."
+
+Lily felt torn. She wanted to keep her wool, but she also wanted to obey her mother and help the farmer. She remembered that her mother always told her to be kind and generous. She decided to be brave and come out of the bush. She walked slowly to the farmer and requested him to cut her wool.
+
+The farmer smiled and thanked her. He was gentle and careful. He cut her wool and put it in a big bag. He gave her a pat on the head and a carrot to eat. Lily felt a little cold and strange, but also proud and happy. She joined her friends and her mother. They all hugged her and praised her. They told her she was a good lamb and a good friend.
+
+Lily learned that sometimes it is hard to give up something you like, but it can make you and others feel good. She also learned that she should not be embarrassed by her appearance, but by her actions. She was glad she listened to her mother and requested the farmer to cut her wool. She looked forward to growing new wool and playing with her friends again.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their toy cars in the garden. They liked to make them zoom on the grass and the dirt. They made a trail with sticks and stones for their cars to follow.
+
+"Look, Lily, my car can zoom faster than yours!" Ben said, as he pushed his red car along the trail.
+
+"No, it can't! My car is faster and smarter!" Lily said, as she pushed her blue car after Ben's.
+
+They zoomed their cars until they reached the end of the trail, where there was a big rock. Ben's car hit the rock and bounced off. Lily's car hit the rock and got stuck.
+
+"Oh no, my car is broken!" Lily cried. She tried to pull her car out of the rock, but it was too hard.
+
+"Don't cry, Lily, I can help you!" Ben said. He was a good brother. He put his car down and went to help Lily. He was a little nervous, because the rock was big and heavy.
+
+He grabbed Lily's car and pulled with all his might. He felt the car move a little. He pulled harder. He felt the car come out of the rock.
+
+"Yay, you did it, Ben! You saved my car!" Lily said. She was very happy. She hugged Ben and thanked him.
+
+"You're welcome, Lily. I'm glad your car is okay." Ben said. He was very proud. He hugged Lily back.
+
+They picked up their cars and smiled at each other. They decided to zoom their cars on a different trail, where there were no rocks. They had fun playing together. They were good friends.
+Ben and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw a big tree with red berries on it. Ben and Lily liked berries. They ran to the tree and picked some berries.
+
+"Yum, these are sweet and juicy!" Ben said.
+
+"Can I have some too?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, here you go." Ben gave Lily some berries.
+
+They ate the berries and smiled. They felt happy and peaceful.
+
+But then, a big bird came. It was black and loud. It wanted the berries too. It flew to the tree and started to peck at the berries.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Ben shouted. "Those are our berries!"
+
+The bird did not listen. It pecked more and more berries. It made a mess. It dropped some berries on Ben and Lily's heads.
+
+"Ow, that hurts!" Lily cried.
+
+"Go away, you mean bird!" Ben said.
+
+He threw a stick at the bird. The bird got angry. It flapped its wings and squawked. It flew down and tried to peck Ben and Lily.
+
+Ben and Lily were scared. They ran to Mom. Mom saw the bird and hugged them.
+
+"Don't worry, my loves. I will protect you." Mom said.
+
+She waved her arms and shouted at the bird. The bird was scared of Mom. It flew away and left the tree.
+
+Ben and Lily were safe. They thanked Mom and hugged her.
+
+"Can we have some more berries, Mom?" Ben asked.
+
+"Maybe later, sweetie. Let's go to the swings now." Mom said.
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They followed Mom to the swings. They forgot about the bird and the berries. They had fun and felt peaceful again.
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the garden. They have a big box of toys. They have dolls, balls, cars, and books. They have fun with their toys.
+
+One day, they see a rabbit in the garden. The rabbit is white and fluffy. It has long ears and a pink nose. It hops around the grass. Tom and Lily want to play with the rabbit. They think the rabbit is cute.
+
+They look for something to give the rabbit. They want the rabbit to like them. They find a carrot in the kitchen. They know rabbits like carrots. They take the carrot to the garden. They hold the carrot out to the rabbit.
+
+The rabbit sees the carrot. It smells the carrot. It comes closer to Tom and Lily. It nibbles the carrot. It makes a happy sound. Tom and Lily smile. They pet the rabbit. The rabbit lets them. They make a new friend.
+
+Tom and Lily are helpful. They share their carrot with the rabbit. They play with the rabbit. They are kind to the rabbit. The rabbit is happy. They have a good day.
+Tim and Sam were best friends. They liked to play in the park and make jokes. One day, they found a big rope on the ground. It was long and thick and had many knots. Tim and Sam thought it was fun to swing on the rope and pretend they were pirates.
+
+They took turns to swing on the rope and say "Arrr!" and "Yo-ho-ho!". They laughed a lot and had a good time. But then, Tim had a crazy idea. He said to Sam, "Let's tie the rope to the slide and slide down it like a fireman!" Sam thought it was a great idea. He said, "Yes, let's do it!"
+
+They tied one end of the rope to the top of the slide and the other end to a tree. They climbed up the slide and grabbed the rope. They were ready to slide down and have more fun. But they did not see that the rope had a big knot in the middle. When they slid down, the knot got stuck on the slide and stopped them. They hung in the air and swung back and forth. They were scared and surprised. They did not laugh anymore.
+
+They tried to untie the rope, but it was too tight. They tried to call for help, but no one heard them. They were stuck on the rope for a long time. They wished they had not tied the rope to the slide. They wished they had played with something else.
+
+Finally, a man came and saw them. He was a park ranger. He had a big hat and a big smile. He said, "What are you doing up there, boys? You look like two monkeys on a vine!" He climbed up the slide and untied the rope. He helped them down and gave them a hug. He said, "You are lucky I found you. You could have been hurt. Next time, be careful with ropes and knots. They can be tricky." Tim and Sam said, "Thank you, sir. We are sorry. We won't do it again." They were happy to be safe and free. They learned their lesson. They still liked to play in the park and make jokes, but they never played with ropes and knots again.
+Tom and Sue are going on a trip with Mom and Dad. They are very happy. They want to see new things and have fun. Mom and Dad tell them to pack their bags. They pack their clothes, their toys, their books and their snacks. They do not want to forget anything.
+
+They get in the car and drive for a long time. They see trees, hills, cows and birds. They sing songs and play games. They ask Mom and Dad when they will get there. Mom and Dad say soon. They are going to a place where they can sleep in a shelter. A shelter is like a big tent. It has a roof, walls and a door. It is cozy and warm.
+
+They arrive at the place where the shelters are. They see other people and children. They say hello and make friends. They help Mom and Dad carry their bags to their shelter. They open the door and see two beds, a table, a lamp and a rug. They think it is fine. They put their bags on the floor and jump on the beds. They laugh and giggle.
+
+Mom and Dad say it is time for dinner. They go to a big hall where there is food and drinks. They sit with their new friends and eat. They have soup, bread, cheese and fruit. They drink water and juice. They say thank you and please. They are polite and kind.
+
+After dinner, they go back to their shelter. They brush their teeth, wash their faces and put on their pajamas. They cuddle with Mom and Dad and read a story. They say good night and close their eyes. They are tired and happy. They dream of their trip and their shelter. They are fine.
+Tom and Mia are playing with paper. They like to fold the paper and make shapes. Tom makes a hat, Mia makes a boat. They show each other their shapes and say, "Look what I made!"
+
+They see a big patch of paper on the floor. It is dull and gray. They think it is boring. They want to make it colorful and fun. They get some crayons and start to draw on the paper. They draw flowers, stars, animals, and faces. They are happy and proud of their art.
+
+But then, Mom comes in and sees the paper. She is angry and sad. She says, "What have you done? This is not paper for playing. This is paper for work. This is my paper for my job. You have ruined it. You have to go to your room. Now!"
+
+Tom and Mia are scared and sorry. They did not know it was Mom's paper. They thought it was just paper. They cry and say, "We are sorry, Mom. We did not mean to. We just wanted to make it pretty."
+
+But Mom does not listen. She takes the paper and throws it in the trash. She sends Tom and Mia to their room. She does not hug them or kiss them. She does not say, "I love you."
+
+Tom and Mia are sad and lonely. They wish they had not played with the paper. They wish they had not folded it or drawn on it. They wish they had left it dull and gray. They wish Mom was not mad at them. They wish Mom loved them.
+Tom and Mia are twins. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big billboard near their house. The billboard has a picture of a cool car. The car is red and shiny. It has four big wheels and two doors.
+
+"Wow, look at that car!" Tom says. "I want to drive it!"
+
+"Me too!" Mia says. "Let's go and see it!"
+
+They run to the billboard. But the billboard is very high. They cannot reach it. They try to jump, but they are too small.
+
+"Maybe we can crawl under it," Tom says. "There might be a hole."
+
+"OK, let's try," Mia says.
+
+They crawl under the billboard. They find a hole. They crawl through the hole. They are very excited. They think they will see the cool car.
+
+But they do not see the car. They see a lot of trash. There are cans, bottles, papers, and boxes. They are dirty and smelly. They do not like it.
+
+"Yuck, this is not the car!" Tom says. "This is garbage!"
+
+"This is not fun!" Mia says. "Let's go back!"
+
+They crawl back through the hole. They crawl under the billboard. They run to their house. They are sad and disappointed.
+
+"Maybe the car is not real," Tom says. "Maybe it is only a picture."
+
+"Maybe we can make our own car," Mia says. "We can use our toys and our imagination."
+
+They go to their room. They find some blocks, some wheels, some stickers, and some crayons. They build a car. They decorate it. They make it look like the cool car on the billboard. They are happy and proud.
+
+"Look, we made a car!" Tom says. "We can drive it!"
+
+"Yes, we can!" Mia says. "Let's go and have fun!"
+
+They drive their car around their room. They make car noises. They pretend they are on the road. They have a lot of fun. They forget about the billboard. They are happy with their car.
+Anna and Ben like to play hockey. They have sticks and a ball. They play in the park with their friends. Anna has a purple shirt. Ben has a blue shirt.
+
+One day, a big boy comes to the park. He wants to play hockey too. But he is not nice. He takes Anna's stick and says, "This is mine now. You can't play. You are too small and your shirt is ugly."
+
+Anna is sad and angry. She says, "No, that is my stick. Give it back. You are mean and your shirt is boring."
+
+Ben sees what is happening. He runs to help Anna. He says, "Leave her alone. She is my friend. We can all play together. But you have to be nice and share."
+
+The big boy laughs. He says, "No, I don't. I am bigger and stronger than you. I can do what I want. Go away or I will hit you."
+
+Ben is scared but he does not run away. He stands next to Anna. He says, "You are not nice. You are a bully. You can't take things that are not yours. You have to say sorry and give back the stick."
+
+The big boy is surprised. He sees that Ben and Anna are not afraid of him. He feels ashamed. He says, "Sorry. I was wrong. Here is your stick. Can I play with you?"
+
+Anna and Ben smile. They say, "Yes, you can. But you have to be nice and share. And you have to say something nice about our shirts."
+
+The big boy thinks. He says, "OK. I like your purple shirt. It is bright and pretty. And I like your blue shirt. It is cool and smart."
+
+Anna and Ben say, "Thank you. We like your green shirt. It is fresh and fun."
+
+They all smile. They play hockey together. They have fun. They are friends.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big pond with ducks and frogs. They wanted to splash in the water.
+
+"Let's go splash, splash, splash!" Tom said.
+
+"OK, but be careful. Mom said not to go too far," Lily said.
+
+They took off their shoes and socks and ran to the pond. They dipped their toes and laughed. They saw a big stick and pretended it was a boat. They pushed it in the water and watched it float.
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. It was a witch! She was flying on a broom in the dark sky. She had a long nose and a pointy hat. She had a black cat on her shoulder. She saw Tom and Lily and smiled a wicked smile.
+
+"Hello, my little snacks. I'm hungry and you look tasty. I'm going to turn you into frogs and eat you for dinner," she said.
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They wanted to run away, but the witch was too fast. She flew over the pond and reached for them with her long fingers.
+
+But then something happened. The stick that Tom and Lily had pushed in the water hit the witch's broom. It made the broom wobble and the witch lose her balance. She fell off the broom and into the pond. She splashed and screamed and cursed.
+
+Tom and Lily saw their chance. They grabbed their shoes and socks and ran to their mom. They told her what happened and she hugged them.
+
+"Don't worry, my darlings. You're safe now. The witch can't hurt you. She's stuck in the pond with the ducks and frogs. And they don't like her at all. They will splash her and quack at her and croak at her until she goes away," she said.
+
+Tom and Lily smiled. They were happy and brave. They had escaped the witch and saved the day. They had fun splashing in the pond.
+Ben and Sam are brothers. They like to play with cars and trucks. They have many toys, but they always want more. One day, they see a big store with many new toys. They ask their mom to buy them some.
+
+"Mom, can we have some new toys? Please, please, please!" they beg.
+
+Mom shakes her head. "No, boys. We have enough toys at home. And we need to save our money for other things. Money is not easy to get. We have to work hard to supply our needs."
+
+Ben and Sam are sad and angry. They do not understand why mom says no. They think mom is mean and stingy. They decide to sneak out of the store and take some toys without paying. They think no one will notice.
+
+But they are wrong. A store worker sees them and stops them. He takes the toys from them and calls their mom. Mom is very upset and ashamed. She scolds Ben and Sam and makes them apologize to the store worker. She also makes them do extra chores at home to pay for the toys they tried to steal.
+
+Ben and Sam learn a hard lesson. They realize that stealing is wrong and that money is not free. They also learn to appreciate what they have and to respect their mom. They promise to never steal again and to be more grateful and regular. They hug their mom and say sorry. Mom forgives them and hugs them back. She hopes they will grow up to be honest and responsible.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big hole in the ground. They want to see what is inside.
+
+"Let's go in the hole," Tom says. "Maybe there is something fun."
+
+"No, Tom, it is not safe," Mia says. "We don't know what is in the hole. It could be dark and scary."
+
+"But I have a flashlight," Tom says. "And I have a marker. We can mark the way so we don't get lost."
+
+Mia thinks for a moment. She is curious, but she is also afraid. She decides to go with Tom, but she tells him to be careful.
+
+They crawl into the hole. It is dark and cold. They see rocks and dirt and roots. Tom turns on his flashlight and marks the wall with his marker. He makes a line and a dot. He says, "This is our mark. We can follow it back."
+
+They go deeper into the hole. They hear strange noises. They see bugs and worms and spiders. Mia does not like them. She says, "Tom, I want to go back. I don't like it here."
+
+Tom says, "Okay, Mia, let's go back. We have seen enough."
+
+They turn around and follow their mark. They see the line and the dot. They crawl back to the hole. They see the light and the grass and the sky. They are happy to be out of the hole.
+
+They run to the bench where their moms are waiting. They tell them what they did. Their moms are not happy. They say, "Tom and Mia, you should not go into the hole. It is not safe. You could get hurt or lost or sick. You should stay in the park where we can see you."
+
+Tom and Mia say, "We are sorry, moms. We were curious. We won't do it again."
+
+Their moms hug them and say, "We are glad you are safe. We love you. But next time, please listen to us."
+
+Tom and Mia say, "We love you too. And we will listen to you."
+
+They go back to the park and play with their toys. They don't go near the hole again. They have learned their lesson.
+Tim and Sue were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hill with many rocks. They wanted to climb it.
+
+"Let's go up there!" Tim said. "It looks fun!"
+
+"OK!" Sue said. "But be careful!"
+
+They ran to the hill and started to climb. They held on to the rocks and grass. They were almost at the top.
+
+But then Tim stumbled. He lost his grip and fell down. He rolled and rolled and hit many rocks. He hurt his head and his arm and his leg. He cried out loud.
+
+Sue saw him and ran to him. She was scared and sad. She took off her jacket and wrapped it around him. She tried to stop the blood.
+
+"Tim, Tim, are you OK?" she asked. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this is my fault!"
+
+Tim looked at her with his eyes closed. He was very pale and weak. He whispered, "No, Sue, it's not your fault. It was an accident. Don't be sorry. I love you."
+
+Then he stopped breathing. Sue screamed and cried. She hugged him and shook him. But he did not wake up. He was gone.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw an enormous truck on the road. It was red and shiny and made a loud noise. Lily and Tom wanted to see it closer, so they ran towards the road.
+
+But their mom saw them and shouted, "Stop! The road is not safe! The truck is very big and fast and can hurt you!" She ran after them and grabbed their hands. She pulled them back to the sidewalk and hugged them. She was scared and angry.
+
+Lily and Tom felt sorry. They did not want to make their mom scared and angry. They did not want to get hurt by the truck. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We just wanted to see the truck. We did not think about the road."
+
+Their mom said, "I know you were curious, but you have to be careful. The road is for cars and trucks, not for children. You have to look both ways and hold my hand before you cross the road. And you have to listen to me when I tell you to stop. I love you and I want you to be safe."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They said, "We love you too, mom. We will listen to you and be careful. We will not run to the road again." They gave their mom a kiss and a smile. Their mom smiled back and said, "That's good. Now let's go home and have some cookies."
+
+The moral value of the story is: Listen to your parents and be careful on the road.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big balloon in the sky. It is red and yellow and blue. It looks like a rainbow.
+
+"Wow, look at that balloon!" Tom says. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"I want it!" Mia says. "Let's go and get it!"
+
+They run after the balloon. They try to catch it. But the balloon is too high. They cannot reach it.
+
+"Hey, balloon, come down!" Tom shouts. "We want to play with you!"
+
+But the balloon does not listen. It flies away with the wind.
+
+Mia is sad. She starts to cry. "It is not fair! The balloon is crazy! It does not want to be our friend!"
+
+Tom tries to make Mia feel better. He hugs her. He says, "Don't cry, Mia. The balloon is not crazy. It is just a balloon. It does not know us. Maybe it has another friend somewhere else. Maybe it is looking for its home."
+
+Mia stops crying. She looks at Tom. She says, "Do you think so?"
+
+Tom nods. He says, "Yes, I think so. And we have each other. We are friends. We can play with other things. Look, there is a ball. And a kite. And a teddy bear. Which one do you want to play with?"
+
+Mia smiles. She says, "I want to play with the kite. It can fly in the sky too. But it will not fly away from us. It will stay with us."
+
+Tom smiles too. He says, "OK, let's play with the kite. Maybe we can make the balloon jealous. Maybe it will come back to us."
+
+They take the kite. They run to the field. They let the kite fly in the sky. They laugh and have fun. They forget about the balloon. They are happy.
+Lily liked to wander in the garden. She saw many flowers of different colors and shapes. She smelled them and touched them gently. She wanted to find the most beautiful flower of all.
+
+One day, she saw a rose that was different from the others. It was white with red spots, like a candy cane. Lily had never seen such a rose before. She thought it was rare and special. She ran to it and reached out her hand.
+
+"Stop!" a voice said. Lily turned and saw a lady in a green dress. The lady looked angry and scared. "Don't touch that rose, child. It is very dangerous. It has sharp thorns that can hurt you. And it is not a real rose. It is a magic rose. It belongs to a witch who lives in the woods. She planted it here to lure people like you. If you touch it, she will know and come for you."
+
+Lily was surprised and scared. She did not want to touch the rose anymore. She did not want to meet the witch. She let go of the rose and backed away. She said, "I'm sorry, lady. I did not know. It looked so pretty. I won't touch it again."
+
+The lady smiled and said, "It's all right, child. You did not mean any harm. But you must be careful in the garden. There are many things that are not what they seem. Come, I will show you some other flowers that are safe and beautiful. They are not rare, but they are real."
+
+Lily nodded and followed the lady. She wondered who the lady was and why she knew so much about the garden. She wondered if the witch would ever come for the rose. She wondered if the rose was lonely and sad. She wondered if she would ever see it again.
+Tommy and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. But they also made a big mess. There were blocks, cars, dolls and books everywhere.
+
+Mommy came in and saw the mess. She was not happy. She said, "Tommy and Lily, it is evening now. You have to clean up your toys and get ready for bed. You can play again tomorrow, but you have to be tidy and respectful."
+
+Tommy and Lily did not want to stop playing. They said, "But Mommy, we are having fun. Can we play a little more?" Mommy said, "No, you have to listen to me. It is not fair to leave a mess for me to clean. You have to help me and wipe the floor and the table. Then you can have a sweet treat and a story before bed."
+
+Tommy and Lily knew Mommy was right. They said, "Sorry, Mommy. We will help you." They put their toys in the boxes and the shelves. They took a cloth and wiped the floor and the table. They made the living room look nice and clean.
+
+Mommy smiled and hugged them. She said, "Thank you, Tommy and Lily. You are good helpers. I am proud of you. Now you can have a sweet treat and a story before bed." She gave them each a cookie and a glass of milk. She read them a story about a brave knight and a friendly dragon. Tommy and Lily enjoyed the story and the treat. They said, "We love you, Mommy. Good night." Mommy said, "I love you too, Tommy and Lily. Good night." She kissed them and tucked them in. They closed their eyes and dreamed of their toys and their adventures.
+Lily liked to give hugs to her friends. She gave hugs to Ben, Mia, and Sam at the park. She gave hugs to her mom, dad, and baby brother at home. She gave hugs to her teddy bear, her doll, and her book at bedtime. Lily was a very good hugger.
+
+One day, Lily saw a new friend at the park. He had a big face and a loud voice. He was playing with a ball. Lily wanted to give him a hug too. She ran to him and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. Can I give you a hug?"
+
+The new friend looked at Lily and said, "No, you can't. I don't like hugs. Go away." He pushed Lily away and made her fall. Lily felt sad and hurt. She ran to her mom and cried.
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "It's okay, Lily. Some people don't like hugs. That's not your fault. You are a very kind and reliable friend. You always give hugs when someone needs them. That's a very nice thing to do."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you." She hugged her mom back and felt better.
+
+The next day, Lily went to the park again. She saw the new friend with the big face and the loud voice. He was sitting on a bench. He looked sad and lonely. He had no ball and no friends.
+
+Lily remembered how he pushed her and made her cry. She felt angry and scared. She wanted to stay away from him. But she also remembered how her mom said she was a kind and reliable friend. She wanted to be nice and help him.
+
+She took a deep breath and walked to him. She said, "Hi, I'm Lily. I'm sorry you are sad. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+The new friend looked at Lily and said, "Hi, I'm Max. I'm sorry I was mean to you. I don't like hugs because they make me feel weird. But I like to play. Can we be friends?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, we can. I don't have to give you hugs if you don't like them. But I can give you a smile and a high five. Is that okay?"
+
+Max smiled and said, "Yes, that's okay. Thank you, Lily. You are a very reliable friend. You always give smiles and high fives when someone needs them. That's a very nice thing to do."
+
+Lily and Max played together and had fun. They became good friends. Lily learned that not everyone likes hugs, but everyone likes kindness. She was happy.
+Lily loved her trumpet. She got it for her birthday from her grandma. She liked to play loud songs with it and make everyone hear her. She took her trumpet everywhere she went.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom and dad. She saw some kids playing with a ball. She wanted to join them, but they said no. They said her trumpet was too noisy and annoying. They said she should go away.
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She did not want to go away. She wanted to play with the ball and her trumpet. She was stubborn. She blew her trumpet louder and louder. The kids got mad and tried to take her trumpet away.
+
+Lily did not let them. She held her trumpet tight and ran away. She ran to her mom and dad. She told them what happened. They hugged her and said they were sorry. They said they were proud of her for protecting her trumpet. They said her trumpet was special and she could play it as much as she wanted.
+
+Lily smiled and thanked them. She felt happy and safe. She played her trumpet again, but this time, she played a nice song. She played a song for her mom and dad, and for her grandma. She hoped they liked it. She hoped the kids would like it too, and maybe want to play with her next time.
+Lily and Max were having breakfast with Mom and Dad. They liked to eat toast with butter and jam. Mom cut the toast into small pieces for them and put them on their plates.
+
+"Can we go to the park today?" Lily asked Mom. She was feeling playful and wanted to swing and slide.
+
+"Sure, honey, after we finish our breakfast and get ready," Mom said. "But you have to remind me to pack some snacks and water for us."
+
+"Okay, Mom, I will remind you," Lily said. She ate her toast quickly and drank her milk.
+
+Max was still eating his toast slowly. He liked to make funny faces with the jam on his toast. He made a smiley face, a sad face, and a surprised face.
+
+"Look, Mom, look, Lily, I made a toast face!" Max said. He showed them his plate.
+
+"That's very creative, Max," Mom said. "But you have to eat your toast, not just play with it."
+
+Lily giggled. She thought Max was funny. She leaned over and whispered to him.
+
+"Max, do you want to go to the park with me?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, yes, yes!" Max said. He nodded his head and ate his toast faster.
+
+"Good, then hurry up and finish your toast," Lily said. "And don't forget to remind Mom to pack some snacks and water for us."
+
+"I won't forget, I won't forget," Max said. He finished his toast and wiped his mouth.
+
+"Mom, Mom, we are done with our toast," Lily and Max said together. "Can we go to the park now?"
+
+"Sure, sweeties, let me just get our things ready," Mom said. "Did you remind me to pack some snacks and water for us?"
+
+"Yes, Mom, we did, we did," Lily and Max said. They smiled and hugged Mom.
+
+"Thank you, my smart and playful kids," Mom said. She kissed them and got their coats and hats.
+
+"Come on, Dad, let's go to the park," Lily and Max said. They grabbed Dad's hand and pulled him to the door.
+
+"Okay, okay, let's go," Dad said. He laughed and followed them.
+
+They all went to the park and had a lot of fun. They swung and slid and ran and played. They ate their snacks and drank their water. They were happy and tired. They loved each other very much.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her dolls and her cat. She had a mom and a dad who loved her very much. They lived in a small house with a garden and a fence.
+
+One day, a big car came to their house. A man and a woman got out of the car. They wore black clothes and had badges. They knocked on the door and talked to Lily's mom and dad. Lily did not know what they said, but she saw her mom and dad look sad and scared.
+
+The man and the woman took Lily's mom and dad away. They said they had to go with them. They said they did something bad. They did not say goodbye to Lily. They did not hug her or kiss her. They left her alone with the cat.
+
+Lily cried and cried. She did not understand what was happening. She did not know where her mom and dad went. She did not know when they would come back. She did not know who would take care of her. She felt alone and afraid.
+
+She suffered a lot. She missed her mom and dad. She wanted them to come back. She wanted them to play with her and love her. She wanted them to tell her everything was okay.
+
+But they did not come back. The man and the woman came back. They said they were her new parents. They said they would take her to a new house. They said they would give her new clothes and toys. They said they would be nice to her.
+
+But Lily did not want them. She did not know them. They were unknown to her. They were not her mom and dad. They did not look like them or sound like them or smell like them. They did not make her feel happy or safe.
+
+She did not want to go with them. She screamed and kicked and bit. She clung to her cat and her dolls. She begged them to leave her alone. She begged them to bring her mom and dad back.
+
+But they did not listen. They grabbed her and put her in the car. They took her cat and her dolls away. They drove away from her house and her garden and her fence. They drove away from her life.
+
+Lily cried and cried. She did not stop crying. She cried until she had no tears left. She cried until she had no voice left. She cried until she had no hope left.
+
+She cried until she forgot who she was.
+Tom and Sue were friends. They liked to play in the park near their homes. One day, a man came to the park. He had a big smile and a bag of candy. He said he wanted to show them something.
+
+"Come with me," he said. "I have a charming surprise for you. It is on the street over there." He pointed to a dark alley.
+
+Tom and Sue were curious. They liked surprises. They followed the man to the street. They did not see anyone else around. They did not tell their moms where they were going.
+
+The man opened his bag of candy. He gave some to Tom and Sue. They said thank you. They ate the candy. It was very sweet. But then they felt dizzy. They could not move. They could not scream.
+
+The man laughed. He was not nice. He was bad. He took Tom and Sue to his car. He put them in the trunk. He drove away. He did not show them anything charming. He showed them something scary. Tom and Sue were in trouble. They wished they had stayed in the park. They wished they had listened to their moms. They wished they had never met the man.
+Lily liked to dance. She danced in the morning, she danced at noon, she danced at night. She danced with her doll, she danced with her dog, she danced with her mom. She danced when she was happy, she danced when she was sad, she danced when she was bored.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big box in the living room. It had a picture of a dancing robot on it. Lily wanted to dance with the robot. She asked her mom, "Can I open the box, please?"
+
+Her mom said, "Not yet, Lily. That is a present for your birthday. You have to wait until tomorrow."
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted to dance with the robot now. She thought, "Maybe I can peek inside the box. Maybe I can play with the robot for a little bit. Mom will not know."
+
+Lily waited until her mom was busy in the kitchen. She tiptoed to the box and lifted the lid. She saw the robot inside. It was shiny and silver. It had a big red button on its chest. Lily pressed the button.
+
+The robot came to life. It said, "Hello, I am Dancer. I like to dance. Do you want to dance with me?"
+
+Lily was happy. She said, "Yes, I want to dance with you. You are my new friend."
+
+The robot said, "OK, let's dance. Follow me." The robot started to move its arms and legs. It played music from its mouth. Lily followed the robot. They danced around the living room. They danced on the couch, they danced on the table, they danced on the rug.
+
+Lily and the robot had fun. They did not see the vase on the shelf. They did not see the lamp on the floor. They did not see the dirt on their feet. They danced and danced and danced.
+
+They made a big mess. They broke the vase. They knocked over the lamp. They made the rug dirty. Lily and the robot did not care. They only cared about dancing.
+
+But then, Lily's mom came back. She saw the mess. She saw the broken vase. She saw the lamp on the floor. She saw the dirty rug. She saw Lily and the robot dancing. She was angry. She said, "Lily, what have you done? You opened your present. You made a big mess. You broke the vase. You knocked over the lamp. You made the rug dirty. You are a naughty girl."
+
+Lily was scared. She stopped dancing. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to dance with the robot. He is my new friend. He likes to dance. He has a brain. He can talk."
+
+Her mom said, "He does not have a brain. He has a battery. He does not talk. He makes noise. He is not your friend. He is a toy. A toy that you are not supposed to play with until your birthday. A toy that you have to put back in the box. Now."
+
+Lily was sad. She did not want to put the robot back in the box. She wanted to dance with him. She said, "Please, mom. Can I keep him? Can I dance with him? He makes me happy."
+
+Her mom said, "No, Lily. You have to wait until your birthday. You have to learn to be patient. You have to learn to follow the rules. You have to learn to clean up your mess. You have to say goodbye to the robot. Now."
+
+Lily was very sad. She looked at the robot. The robot looked at her. He said, "Goodbye, Lily. I like to dance with you. You are my friend. Maybe we can dance again. Someday."
+
+Lily said, "Goodbye, Dancer. I like to dance with you. You are my friend. Maybe we can dance again. Tomorrow."
+
+Lily hugged the robot. She put him back in the box. She closed the lid. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I will wait until my birthday. I will follow the rules. I will clean up my mess. I will be a good girl."
+
+Her mom said, "Thank you, Lily. I love you. You are a good girl. But you are also a dirty girl. You need a bath. Come on."
+
+Lily followed her mom. She went to the bathroom. She took a bath. She washed the dirt off her feet. She washed the dirt off her face. She washed the dirt off her hair. She thought about the robot. She thought about dancing. She smiled. She said, "Maybe tomorrow."
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys on the floor. They had many cars, dolls, blocks and animals. They made noises and stories with their toys. They had fun.
+
+Mama was working on the table. She had papers, pens, a laptop and a phone. She was busy and needed to finish her work. She told Lily and Ben to be quiet and not disturb her.
+
+But Lily and Ben were not quiet. They shouted and laughed and threw their toys. Some toys hit the table and made it shake. Mama's papers fell down and her laptop closed. Mama was angry.
+
+"Stop it, Lily and Ben!" Mama said. "You are disturbing me and making a mess. Look at the table, it is dirty and full of toys. You need to clean it up and play nicely."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry. They did not want to make Mama angry. They said sorry to Mama and helped her pick up the papers and the toys. They cleaned the table with a cloth and put the toys in a box. They gave Mama a hug and a kiss.
+
+Mama smiled and thanked them. She said she loved them and was proud of them. She said they could play with their toys again, but on the rug and not on the floor. She said she would finish her work soon and then play with them too.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and agreed. They took their toys to the rug and played quietly and nicely. They did not disturb Mama and they did not make the table dirty again. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They share a room and a big bed. They also have a big drawer where they keep their toys. Lily likes dolls and Ben likes cars.
+
+One day, Lily sees a new doll in the drawer. It has long hair and a pretty dress. She wants to play with it. She takes it out of the drawer and hugs it.
+
+"Look, Ben, I have a new doll!" she says.
+
+Ben looks at the doll and feels jealous. He wants a new toy too. He looks in the drawer and sees a new car. It has shiny wheels and a loud horn. He wants to play with it. He takes it out of the drawer and pushes it.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a new car!" he says.
+
+Lily looks at the car and feels jealous. She wants a new toy too. She thinks the car is better than the doll. She tries to grab the car from Ben.
+
+"Give me the car, Ben!" she says.
+
+Ben does not want to give the car to Lily. He pulls the car from Lily.
+
+"No, it's mine, Lily!" he says.
+
+They tug and tug at the car. They are both angry and loud. They do not hear Mom coming into the room.
+
+Mom sees Lily and Ben fighting over the car. She is not happy. She takes the car from them and puts it on the table.
+
+"Stop, Lily and Ben!" she says. "You are being naughty and rude. You are not sharing your toys. You are breaking the car. And you are breaking my heart."
+
+Lily and Ben feel sorry. They look at the car and see that it is broken. The wheels are off and the horn is silent. They look at Mom and see that she is sad. They look at each other and see that they are sorry.
+
+They hug Mom and say, "We are sorry, Mom. We love you. We love each other. We will share our toys. We will not break them. We will not break your heart."
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them back. She says, "I love you, Lily and Ben. You are my sweet twins. You can play with your toys. But you have to be careful and kind. And you have to say thank you. The doll and the car are gifts from Grandma. She sent them for your birthday."
+
+Lily and Ben say, "Thank you, Mom. Thank you, Grandma. We are happy. We have the best toys. We have the best Mom. We have the best Grandma. We have the best twin."
+Tom and Lily are playing with their toys in the living room. Tom has a car and Lily has a doll. They are having fun making noises and stories with their toys.
+
+But then Tom wants to play with Lily's doll. He grabs it from her hands and says, "This is my doll now. I like her hair and dress. You can have my car."
+
+Lily is very sad and angry. She does not want to give up her doll. She says, "No, Tom, that is not fair. That is my doll. You gave me her for my birthday. Give her back to me."
+
+Tom does not listen to Lily. He says, "No, Lily, you are silly. This is my doll. You have too many toys. You can share with me."
+
+Lily does not like what Tom says. She feels tears in her eyes. She says, "Tom, you are mean. You are not my friend. You are a bad brother. You make me cry."
+
+She says this very loud. She says this so loud that Mom hears her from the kitchen. Mom comes to the living room and sees Tom and Lily fighting over the doll. She sees Lily's sad face and Tom's angry face.
+
+Mom says, "Tom and Lily, what is going on here? Why are you yelling and grabbing? Why are you not playing nicely?"
+
+Tom and Lily stop fighting and look at Mom. They both try to tell Mom their side of the story. They both want Mom to take their side.
+
+But Mom says, "Tom and Lily, you both need to calm down and listen to me. You both need to learn how to share and take turns. You both need to be kind and respectful to each other. You both need to say sorry and hug."
+
+Tom and Lily look at each other. They feel sorry for making each other sad and angry. They say sorry and hug. They say, "Mom, we love you. We love each other. We will share and play nicely."
+
+Mom smiles and says, "That's good, Tom and Lily. I love you too. I'm proud of you. Now, why don't you play together with both the car and the doll? You can make more noises and stories with them."
+
+Tom and Lily nod and say, "Okay, Mom. Thank you, Mom." They take the car and the doll and play together in the living room. They are happy and friendly again. Mom goes back to the kitchen and watches them with a happy face.
+Lily loved her new kitten. She named her Snowy because she was white and fluffy. Snowy liked to play with Lily's toys, but sometimes she made a mess. She scratched Lily's doll, she knocked over Lily's blocks, and she chewed Lily's crayons.
+
+One day, Lily's mom said, "Lily, you have to pay for the things Snowy broke. You have to use your own money from your piggy bank."
+
+Lily was sad. She did not want to pay for the things Snowy broke. She wanted to buy candy and stickers with her money. She said, "But mom, Snowy is just a baby. She does not know better. She is sorry."
+
+Lily's mom said, "I know, Lily, but you have to be responsible for your kitten. You have to teach her what is right and wrong. And you have to pay for the things she broke. That is fair."
+
+Lily sighed. She opened her piggy bank and counted her coins. She gave some to her mom and said, "Here, mom. This is for the things Snowy broke. I hope you can fix them."
+
+Lily's mom smiled and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good girl. And I will try to fix them. But you have to be careful with your things and watch your kitten. OK?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "OK, mom. I love you. And I love Snowy, too. Even if she is naughty sometimes."
+
+Lily hugged her mom and then picked up Snowy. Snowy purred and licked Lily's face. Lily giggled and said, "Snowy, you are my best friend. But you have to be nice to my toys. Or else you will make me uncomfortable. And you will have to pay, too."
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big slide and run to it. Anna wants to go first, but Ben pulls her back.
+
+"No, I go first!" Ben says.
+
+"That's not fair! You always go first!" Anna says.
+
+They start to fight and push each other. They don't see a little boy who is waiting for his turn. The boy is sad and walks away.
+
+He sees a pond with ducks and fish. He likes animals and wants to feed them. He looks for some bread in his bag, but he can't find any. He starts to cry.
+
+A lady who is sitting on a bench hears him. She has a beautiful hat with flowers on it. She walks to him and smiles.
+
+"What's wrong, little one?" she asks.
+
+"I want to feed the ducks, but I have no bread," the boy says.
+
+The lady takes out a sandwich from her bag and breaks it into pieces. She gives some to the boy and some to the ducks. The boy is happy and says thank you. The lady puts her hat on his head and says he can keep it.
+
+"You look very handsome with this hat," she says.
+
+The boy smiles and says he likes the hat. He says it is very beautiful. He feeds the ducks and the fish and makes friends with them. He forgets about the slide and the fight. He has fun with the lady and the animals. He is glad he met them.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big slide. They want to go on the slide.
+
+"Let's go on the slide!" Tom says.
+
+"OK!" Sam says.
+
+They run to the slide. They climb up the stairs. They sit on the slide. They slide down fast. They laugh and have fun.
+
+They do it again and again. They slide down faster and faster. They feel dizzy. They do not stop.
+
+"Look, there is a leak!" Tom says.
+
+He points to a hole in the slide. Water is coming out of the hole. It makes the slide wet and slippery.
+
+"Let's jump over the leak!" Sam says.
+
+He thinks it is a game. He slides down and tries to jump over the hole. He misses. He hits the hole. He hurts his leg. He cries.
+
+"Sam, are you OK?" Tom says.
+
+He slides down and tries to help Sam. He also misses. He hits the hole. He hurts his head. He cries.
+
+They both lie on the ground. They are hurt and dizzy. They are not having fun. They are sad. They wish they had stopped.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a big book in their mom's room. It had many strange words and pictures. They wanted to see what was inside, so they tried to lift the book. But it was too heavy for them.
+
+They saw a small stick on the floor. It looked like a wand. They thought it might help them lift the book. They picked up the wand and waved it at the book. They said some words that they heard in a movie. They hoped it was a spell.
+
+But the wand was not a toy. It was a real wand that belonged to their mom. She was a witch who hid her magic from them. The spell they said was not a good one. It made the book fly up in the air and hit the ceiling. Then it fell down and hit them on the head. It hurt a lot.
+
+The book also opened and let out a cloud of smoke. The smoke was spicy and made them cough and sneeze. It also smelled bad and made their eyes water. They ran out of the room, crying and looking for their mom.
+
+But their mom was not home. She had gone to the store to buy some food. She did not know what they had done. She would be very angry when she came back and saw the mess. Tom and Lily were in big trouble. They wished they had not played with the book and the wand. They learned a hard lesson. The end.
+Here is one possible story, but there are many other ways to write it.
+
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to ride the bus to school. They always sat in the front and said hello to the driver, who was nice and smiled at them. One day, the driver was not there. A new driver was in his place. He looked angry and did not smile.
+
+"Who are you?" Anna asked.
+
+"None of your business," the new driver said. "Sit down and be quiet."
+
+Anna and Ben did not like the new driver. He drove too fast and made the bus shake. He did not stop at the red lights or the signs. He did not let the other cars go first. He honked his horn and yelled at them.
+
+"Stop it!" Ben said. "You are a bad driver!"
+
+The new driver did not listen. He kept driving fast and angry. He did not see the big truck that was coming from the other side. He did not hear the loud noise that it made. He did not feel the crash that happened.
+
+Anna and Ben felt the crash. They were scared and hurt. They saw the new driver fly out of the window. He landed on the ground and did not move. He looked bitter and sad.
+
+"Are you okay?" a man asked. He was the driver of the truck. He came to help Anna and Ben.
+
+They nodded. They were okay, but they were sad too. They wished they had their old driver back. They wished they had never mentioned the new driver. They wished they had never met him.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a big box full of buttons in the attic. They were shiny and colorful and made a nice sound when they shook them.
+
+"Wow, look at all these buttons!" Tom said. "Let's make a necklace with them."
+
+"OK, but I want the red ones. They are the prettiest," Lily said.
+
+They started to sort the buttons by color and shape. Tom found some blue, green, yellow and purple buttons, but Lily took all the red ones for herself.
+
+"Hey, that's not fair!" Tom said. "You can't have all the red buttons. You have to share."
+
+"No, I don't. They are mine. I saw them first," Lily said. She was selfish and did not want to give any to Tom.
+
+Tom was sad and angry. He did not want to play with Lily anymore. He decided to wander around the attic and look for something else. He found an old hat, a dusty book and a broken clock. He did not care about them. He only wanted some red buttons.
+
+He heard Lily call him from the box. "Tom, where are you? Come back and play with me."
+
+Tom ignored her. He did not want to talk to her. He kept wandering until he found a small door in the wall. He opened it and saw a dark tunnel. He was curious and scared. He wondered what was inside.
+
+He stepped into the tunnel and closed the door behind him. He did not know that he was leaving Lily alone with the buttons. He did not know that he was going on a big adventure. He did not know that he would soon wish he had shared with his sister.
+Tim and Jen are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big truck. The truck has a lot of steel on it. The steel is shiny and hard.
+
+"Wow, look at the steel!" Tim says. "I want to touch it."
+
+"No, Tim, don't!" Jen says. "The truck is moving. It is dangerous."
+
+But Tim does not listen. He runs to the truck. He tries to grab the steel. But the truck is too fast. It hits Tim. Tim falls down. He cries.
+
+"Help, help!" Jen shouts. She is very scared. She runs to Tim. She sees blood on his leg.
+
+A man hears Jen. He is alert. He comes to help. He is the driver of the truck. He is sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, I didn't see him," the man says. "Are you okay, kid?"
+
+He speaks to Tim. He picks him up. He puts him in his truck. He takes him to the hospital.
+
+Jen goes with them. She holds Tim's hand. She is sad. She hopes Tim will be okay. She learns a lesson. She will never touch the steel again.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play together. One day, Anna has an invitation in her hand. She shows it to Tom.
+
+"Look, Tom! I have an invitation to a party. It is from Lily. She is having a birthday party. Do you want to come with me?" Anna asks.
+
+Tom is enthusiastic. He likes parties. He likes cake and games and balloons. He nods and smiles.
+
+"Yes, Anna! I want to come with you. Thank you for asking me. When is the party?" Tom asks.
+
+Anna looks at the invitation. She reads the date and time.
+
+"The party is on Saturday. It is at two o'clock. We have to wear nice clothes. Lily says there will be a clown and a magician. It will be fun!" Anna says.
+
+Tom and Anna are excited. They go home and tell their parents. Their parents say they can go to the party. They help them choose nice clothes. Tom picks a blue shirt and black pants. Anna picks a pink dress and white shoes.
+
+On Saturday, Tom and Anna go to the party. They see Lily and her parents. They give Lily a present and a hug. Lily is happy to see them. She invites them to join the other guests.
+
+"Welcome to my party, Tom and Anna! I'm glad you came. Come and meet my friends. We have cake and juice and candy. We also have a clown and a magician. They will make us laugh and wonder. Let's have fun!" Lily says.
+
+Tom and Anna follow Lily. They meet her friends. They are nice and friendly. They play games and eat cake. They laugh at the clown and his jokes. They watch the magician and his tricks. They clap and cheer.
+
+At the end of the party, Lily thanks everyone for coming. She gives them each a balloon and a sticker. She says goodbye to them. Tom and Anna say goodbye to Lily. They thank her for the party. They bow to her parents. They say thank you to them too.
+
+Tom and Anna go home with their parents. They are happy and tired. They had a lot of fun. They tell their parents about the party. They show them their balloons and stickers. They hug their parents and go to bed. They dream of clowns and magicians and parties.
+Lily and Ben are going on a trip with Mom and Dad. They are very happy. They help Mom and Dad make their luggage. They put clothes, toys, books and snacks in big bags. They are ready to go.
+
+They go to the airport in a car. They see many planes in the sky. They are excited. They want to fly too. They give their luggage to a man. He puts it on a belt. He says they will get it back later.
+
+They go to a big room with many people. They wait for their plane. They hear a loud noise. It is a siren. It means there is a problem. Mom and Dad look alert. They tell Lily and Ben to stay close. They hold their hands.
+
+They see smoke and fire. It is coming from a plane. It is their plane. It is burning. They are scared. They hear people scream. They run away. They try to find a safe place.
+
+They do not find a safe place. The fire is too big. It reaches them. It hurts them. They cry. They say goodbye. They die. Their luggage is gone too. It is a bad ending.
+Sam and Lily are friends. They like to play together. Today, they go to a big event. There are many people and things to see. There are balloons, games, music and food. Sam and Lily are happy.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is a firework. It makes a big boom and a bright flash. Sam and Lily are scared. They do not like the noisy firework. They want to go home. They look for their moms and dads, but they cannot find them. There are too many people. Sam and Lily are lost.
+
+They cry and call for help. But no one hears them. The noise is too loud. The fireworks keep going. They make more booms and flashes. Sam and Lily are very scared. They hug each other and hope someone will find them. But no one does. The event is over. The people leave. The lights go off. Sam and Lily are alone in the dark. They are very sad. The end.
+Here is one possible story, but there are many other ways to write it.
+
+---
+
+Lily and Ben liked to play pirates in the backyard. They had a big box that was their ship, and they wore hats and eye patches. They pretended to sail the seas and look for treasure.
+
+One day, they saw a new boy in the house next door. He was wearing a red shirt and had a toy sword. He looked like a pirate too. Lily and Ben wanted to play with him, so they waved and shouted, "Ahoy, matey! Do you want to join our crew?"
+
+The new boy ignored them. He did not wave or shout back. He just walked away with his sword. Lily and Ben felt sad and angry. They thought he was rude and mean.
+
+The next day, they saw the new boy again. He was in his backyard, digging a hole. He had a map in his hand. He looked like he was looking for treasure. Lily and Ben were curious. They wanted to see what he was doing, so they climbed over the fence and sneaked up behind him.
+
+The new boy heard them and turned around. He saw them and yelled, "Go away! This is my treasure! You can't have it!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared and surprised. They saw that he had a big chest in the hole. It looked like it was full of gold and jewels. They wondered how he got it.
+
+The new boy swung his sword at them. He tried to scare them away. He said, "I am the fiercest pirate in the world! I will fight you if you come near my treasure!"
+
+Lily and Ben did not believe him. They saw that his sword was plastic and harmless. They saw that his chest was cardboard and fake. They saw that his map was drawn with crayons and stickers. They realized that he was just pretending, like them.
+
+Lily and Ben laughed. They said, "You are not a real pirate! You are just a silly boy! Your sword is not sharp, your chest is not heavy, and your map is not old!"
+
+The new boy felt ashamed and embarrassed. He dropped his sword and hid his face. He said, "I know, I know. I was just playing. I'm sorry I ignored you. I was lonely and bored. I wanted to have fun, but I didn't know how to make friends."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for him. They said, "It's okay. We forgive you. We like to play pirates too. We can share our ship and our hats and our eye patches. We can be friends and have fun together."
+
+The new boy smiled. He said, "Really? You would do that for me? Thank you, thank you! You are very kind and nice!"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They said, "Yes, yes! Come on, let's go to our ship! We can sail the seas and look for treasure together!"
+
+The new boy followed them. He picked up his sword and his chest and his map. He said, "Aye, aye, captain! Let's go, let's go!"
+
+They climbed over the fence and ran to the box. They put on their hats and eye patches. They pretended to sail the seas and look for treasure. They had a lot of fun. They became good friends. They were happy pirates.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to display their toys on the floor and pretend they were having adventures. Lily had a doll and Tom had a car.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise outside. It was thunder. The sky was dark and angry. Lily and Tom were scared. They ran to the window and looked outside.
+
+"Mommy, what is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"That is thunder, sweetie. It is the sound of the clouds crashing together. Sometimes they make rain and lightning too. Don't worry, it will go away soon," Mommy said.
+
+She hugged Lily and Tom and tried to calm them down.
+
+But the thunder did not go away. It got louder and louder. The rain and lightning came too. They made the lights go off and the windows shake. Lily and Tom cried. They wanted the thunder to stop.
+
+"Mommy, make it stop!" Tom shouted.
+
+"I can't, honey. We have to wait until it passes. Let's go to the basement. It is safer there," Mommy said.
+
+She took Lily and Tom by the hand and led them to the basement. They took their toys with them. They hoped the thunder would stop soon.
+
+But the thunder did not stop. It got angrier and angrier. It made the house fall apart. It made the basement flood. Lily and Tom and Mommy were trapped. They could not get out. They screamed for help. But no one heard them. The thunder was too loud. The thunder took them away. The end.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy cars and trucks in the living room. They made loud noises and pretended to drive on the road. They had a lot of fun, but they also made a big mess.
+
+"Look, Ben, I have a crane!" Lily said, holding up a yellow toy with a long arm. "I can lift your car with it!"
+
+"Wow, that's cool, Lily!" Ben said, watching as Lily moved the crane over his red car. "Can I try it too?"
+
+"Sure, Ben, here you go!" Lily said, handing him the crane. Ben took it and tried to lift his car, but he was not very good at it. He dropped the car several times and made it roll away.
+
+"Oops, sorry, Lily!" Ben said, chasing after the car. "This crane is hard to use!"
+
+Just then, they heard their mom's voice from the kitchen. "Lily and Ben, it's time for lunch! Come and wash your hands!"
+
+Lily and Ben paused their game and looked at each other. They knew they had to go, but they also knew they had to tidy up their toys first.
+
+"Mom, can we finish our game after lunch?" Lily asked, hoping for more time.
+
+"No, Lily, you have to tidy up now. Look at this mess! You have toys everywhere!" Mom said, coming into the living room. "You have to put them back in the box and on the shelf. And be careful with the crane, it's fragile!"
+
+"OK, Mom, we're sorry," Lily and Ben said, feeling a little guilty. They started to pick up their toys and put them where they belonged. They worked together and soon they had a tidy living room.
+
+"Good job, Lily and Ben!" Mom said, smiling. "Now you can come and have lunch. And maybe later you can play with the crane again, but gently!"
+
+"Thank you, Mom!" Lily and Ben said, running to the kitchen. They were hungry and happy. They still liked the crane, but they also liked to be tidy.
+Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play outside with their ball. One day, they go to the park with Mom. Mom sits on a bench and reads a book. Sam and Ben run and kick the ball.
+
+"Look, Ben, I can kick the ball very high!" Sam says. He kicks the ball hard and it flies in the air.
+
+"Wow, Sam, you are very good!" Ben says. He runs after the ball and tries to catch it. But he does not see a rock on the ground. He trips over the rock and falls down. He hurts his knee and it starts to bleed. He cries.
+
+"Ben, are you okay?" Sam asks. He runs to his brother and sees his knee. He sees a tear in his pants and blood on his skin. He feels sorry for Ben.
+
+"Mom, Mom, help!" Sam shouts. Mom hears Sam and comes to them. She sees Ben's knee and hugs him.
+
+"Ben, you are very brave. You have a tough knee. It will heal soon. Don't worry." Mom says. She takes out a band-aid from her bag and puts it on Ben's knee. She kisses him and smiles.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. It feels better now." Ben says. He stops crying and smiles too.
+
+"Sam, thank you for helping your brother. You are very kind." Mom says. She kisses Sam and smiles.
+
+"Can we play some more, Mom?" Sam asks.
+
+"Sure, but be careful, okay?" Mom says.
+
+"Okay, Mom. Come on, Ben, let's play!" Sam says.
+
+Sam and Ben hold hands and go back to their ball. They play and have fun. They are happy.
+Tim and Tom were brothers who liked to play near the sea. They found many things on the sand, like shells, stones, and sticks. One day, they saw a big oyster with a shiny pearl inside. They wanted to take it home and show their mom.
+
+They tried to open the oyster, but it was too hard. They tried to hit it with a stick, but it did not break. They tried to throw it on a rock, but it bounced back. They were very angry and sad.
+
+Then, Tim had an idea. He said, "Let's tie the oyster to a balloon and let it fly away. Maybe it will open in the sky and drop the pearl for us." Tom thought it was a good idea. He was very thoughtful. He found a balloon and a string in his pocket. He tied the string to the oyster and the balloon. He gave it to Tim.
+
+Tim let go of the balloon and watched it go up in the air. He smiled and said, "Bye bye, oyster. Give us the pearl, please." Tom smiled too and said, "Yes, please."
+
+But the oyster did not open. It did not drop the pearl. It flew higher and higher, until it was out of sight. Tim and Tom never saw it again. They lost the oyster and the pearl. They were very sad and sorry. They wished they had left the oyster alone. They learned a hard lesson.
+One day, a person named Anna wanted to design a new dress. She had a lot of cloth and scissors and needles and thread. She cut and sewed and made a beautiful dress with flowers and ribbons. She was very happy and proud of her work.
+
+She showed her dress to her friend, Ben, who also liked to design things. He made cars and planes and robots with wood and metal and glue. He looked at Anna's dress and said, "That is a nice dress, but it is not very useful. You can only wear it, you cannot play with it or make it move or do anything fun. I think my things are better than your things."
+
+Anna felt sad and angry. She said, "That is not true, Ben. My dress is very useful. It makes me feel pretty and happy and it shows my creativity. Your things are also nice, but they are not better than my things. They are just different. You are being ignorant, Ben. You do not know or care about other people's feelings or ideas. You only think about yourself."
+
+Ben felt ashamed and sorry. He said, "You are right, Anna. I was being ignorant. I did not mean to hurt your feelings or make you sad. I was just trying to show you my things, but I did not think about how you would feel. I am sorry, Anna. Can we still be friends?"
+
+Anna smiled and said, "Yes, Ben, we can still be friends. I forgive you. I like your things, too. They are very clever and fun. Maybe we can design something together, something that we both like and enjoy. What do you think?"
+
+Ben nodded and said, "That sounds like a good idea, Anna. Let's do that. Maybe we can make a dress that can fly or a car that can sing. That would be awesome!"
+
+They hugged and laughed and went to design something together. They learned to respect and appreciate each other's talents and interests. They became better friends and better designers.
+Lily liked to play with her blocks. She could make many things with them. She could make a house, a car, a bridge, or a tower. She liked to imagine that she was a princess in a tower, or a driver in a car, or a builder on a bridge.
+
+One day, she wanted to make a very large tower. She used all her blocks to make it. It was taller than her, and taller than her chair, and taller than her table. She was very proud of her tower. She imagined that she was a queen in a large tower, and everyone could see her.
+
+But then, her brother Tom came into the room. He saw the tower and wanted to play with it. He asked Lily if he could join her. But Lily said no. She said it was her tower, and her blocks, and her game. She did not want to share with Tom. She told him to go away.
+
+Tom was sad and angry. He did not like Lily being mean to him. He wanted to play with the blocks too. He thought Lily was selfish and greedy. He decided to knock down the tower. He pushed it with his hand, and it fell down with a loud crash. The blocks scattered all over the floor.
+
+Lily was shocked and upset. She saw her tower ruined, and her blocks broken. She started to cry. She asked Tom why he did that. He said he did it because she did not share with him. He said she was not a good sister.
+
+Lily realized that she was wrong. She should have shared with Tom. She should have let him play with her. She should have been kind and friendly. She felt sorry for what she did. She said she was sorry to Tom. She asked him if he wanted to help her build a new tower. He said yes. He said he was sorry too. He hugged her and said he loved her.
+
+They started to pick up the blocks and build a new tower. They worked together and had fun. They made a bigger and better tower than before. They imagined that they were both kings and queens in a large tower, and everyone could see them. They learned to share and care for each other.
+
+The moral of the story is: Sharing is caring.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big balloon tied to a string. The balloon was high in the sky, and it had many colors. Ben and Lily wanted to touch the balloon.
+
+"Let's get the balloon!" Ben said. "We can pull the string and make it come down."
+
+"OK!" Lily said. "But be careful, don't poke the balloon. It might pop."
+
+Ben and Lily ran to the string. They pulled it hard, and the balloon came closer. They reached for the balloon, but it was still too high. They pulled harder, and the string broke.
+
+"Oh no!" Ben said. "The balloon is flying away!"
+
+Ben and Lily watched the balloon go higher and higher, until they could not see it anymore. They felt sad and angry. They had lost the balloon.
+
+They looked at the string in their hands. It was short and useless. They threw it on the ground.
+
+"That was a bad balloon!" Ben said. "It was mean and selfish. It did not want to play with us."
+
+"Yes, it was!" Lily said. "It was a bad, bad balloon!"
+
+They stomped their feet and cried. They did not have any fun in the park. They wished they had never seen the balloon.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They saw a big tree with a hole in it. They wanted to see what was inside. They ran to the tree and looked in the hole.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Max said. He pulled out a shiny red thing. It was gum. He opened it and put it in his mouth. He started to chew and blow bubbles.
+
+"Can I have some?" Lily asked. She liked gum too. Max gave her half of his gum. She put it in her mouth and chewed. She tried to blow a bubble, but it popped on her face. She laughed and wiped it off.
+
+They chewed and blew bubbles for a while. They had fun. Then they heard a loud noise. It was a dog. It was big and black and barked a lot. It saw them and ran towards them. It wanted to play.
+
+"Uh-oh, run!" Max said. He grabbed Lily's hand and they ran away from the dog. They ran to the swings and climbed on them. They swung high and fast. The dog followed them and jumped up and down. It wagged its tail and barked.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Lily said. She was scared of the dog. She swung higher and higher. She wanted to get away from the dog. But then something bad happened. Her gum got stuck on the swing. It stretched and stretched. She tried to pull it off, but it was too sticky. She twisted and twisted, but it did not help. The gum broke and snapped. It flew in the air and landed on the dog's head. The dog was surprised and shook its head. It tried to get the gum off, but it was too sticky. It twisted and twisted, but it did not help. The gum broke and snapped. It flew in the air and landed on the tree. The tree was sticky and red.
+
+Lily and Max stopped swinging. They looked at the dog and the tree. They looked at each other. They felt bad. They had made a mess. They got off the swings and walked to the dog. They said sorry to the dog. They tried to get the gum off the dog's head, but it was too hard. They gave the dog a hug and a pat. The dog licked their faces and wagged its tail. It was not mad. It was happy.
+
+They walked to the tree and looked at the hole. They saw more gum inside. It was different colors. It was old and broken. Someone had left it there a long time ago. They did not want it. They did not like gum anymore. They threw their gum in the trash. They said sorry to the tree. They gave the tree a hug and a kiss. The tree was not mad. It was happy.
+
+They walked back to the park. They played with the dog. They had fun. They did not chew gum. They did not blow bubbles. They did not make a mess. They were good. They were happy. The end.

+

+Lila was a queen who liked to spin. She had a big dress that made her look like a flower when she spun. She spun all day and all night, and did not care about anything else.
+
+She did not care about her people, who were hungry and sad. She did not care about her husband, who was lonely and bored. She did not care about her son, who wanted to play and learn. She only cared about spinning.
+
+One day, a big storm came and broke her castle. The wind was very strong and made everything fly away. Lila tried to hold on to her dress, but it was too big and heavy. The wind lifted her up and spun her around and around.

+Mom gets some glue and tape. She helps Anna and Ben put the parts of the car back together. The car looks a little funny, but it still works. Anna and Ben say sorry to each other and hug.

+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play with blocks. They built towers, bridges, and castles with their blocks. Sometimes they shared their blocks, and sometimes they fought over them.
+
+One day, they decided to have a contest. Who could build the highest tower with their blocks? They each took some blocks and started to stack them on the floor. Lily's tower was red and blue, and Ben's tower was yellow and green.
+
+"Look at my tower, Lily!" Ben said. "It is taller than yours!"
+
+"No, it is not!" Lily said. "My tower is taller than yours!"
+
+They kept adding more blocks to their towers, trying to make them taller and taller. But they did not pay attention to how steady their towers were. They only cared about how high they were.
+
+Soon, their towers became very wobbly and shaky. They swayed from side to side, and some blocks fell off. Lily and Ben did not notice. They were too busy arguing.
+
+"I am almost finished!" Ben said. "I only need one more block!"
+
+"Me too!" Lily said. "I only need one more block!"
+
+They both reached for the last block on the floor. It was a big, dull, gray block. They both wanted it for their tower. They both grabbed it at the same time, and pulled hard.
+
+"Let go!" Ben said.
+
+"No, you let go!" Lily said.
+
+They pulled and pulled, until the block snapped in half. They each fell back, holding a piece of the block. They looked at their towers, and gasped.
+
+Both towers had collapsed. All their blocks were scattered on the floor. Their towers were gone.
+
+They looked at each other, and felt sad. They had wasted their blocks, and their time, and their fun. They had been silly and greedy.
+
+They remembered what their mom had told them once. "Wisdom is better than height," she had said. "Wisdom means knowing what is good and right, and being kind and fair."
+
+They wished they had listened to their mom. They wished they had used their wisdom, and not their pride.
+
+They put down their pieces of the block, and hugged each other.
+
+"I am sorry, Lily," Ben said.
+
+"I am sorry, Ben," Lily said.
+
+They decided to start over. They picked up their blocks, and put them in a pile. They agreed to share their blocks, and work together. They decided to build something new, something better, something fun.
+
+They smiled, and hugged again. They had learned their lesson. They had found their wisdom.

+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the torn doll and the sad children. She feels hot in her face. She says, "What did you do to the doll? Why did you tear it?

+
+Tom feels sorry. He says, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was wrong to tear your doll. Can we still be friends?" Lily feels sorry too. She says, "I'm sorry, Tom. I was wrong to be mean to you. Yes, we can still be friends." They hug and say sorry to Mom. Mom smiles and gives them each a hug and a kiss. She says, "I'm glad you are friends again. Now play nicely and share your dolls."

+
+They point to the big boy. He is still holding the ball. He is smiling. He does not see the police officer. The police officer runs to the big boy. He says, "Stop. Give the ball back to the kids. You are in trouble. You can't steal and bully." The big boy says, "No, I won't. The ball is mine. You can't make me." He throws the ball at the police officer. He hits him in the face.
+
+The police officer falls down. He is hurt. He bleeds. He can't get up. The big boy laughs. He says, "Ha ha, I got you too. You are a loser. I am the best." He runs away with the ball. He is happy.

+Lily and Max were best friends. They liked to play with blocks and cars and dolls. But sometimes they disagreed about what to play. One day, they found a big box in the garage. It had many bright things inside.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Lily said. She picked up a shiny ball that made a jingle sound. "This is a bell. We can play music with it."
+
+"No, this is a ball. We can play catch with it," Max said. He grabbed the ball from Lily. "Give it to me!"
+
+"Hey, that's not fair!" Lily said. She pulled the ball back. "It's mine!"
+
+They both tugged on the ball. They did not see the spark that flew out of the box. It landed on a pile of old papers. The papers started to burn.
+
+"Uh-oh," Lily and Max said. They smelled the smoke. They dropped the ball and ran to the door. They shouted for help.
+
+Mom and Dad heard them. They came to the garage. They saw the fire. They used a hose to put it out. They were not happy.

+
+But then, the sun got very hot. It burned Lily's skin and made her feel bad. She cried and ran to Mom. Mom put some cream on her skin and gave her a hug.
+
+"Mom, why does the sun burn?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sometimes, the sun is too bright and too strong. It can hurt your skin if you stay in it too long. That's why you need to wear a hat, a shirt and some sunscreen when you go outside," Mom said.
+
+"Can we go home now?" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, we can. Let's pack our things and say goodbye to the park," Mom said.
+
+Tom was sad. He wanted to play more. He did not like the sun. He thought it was dull and mean.
+
+"Tom, don't be sad. We can play more at home. We can draw, read or play with your toys. Maybe we can make some cookies later," Dad said.
+
+"Really? I like cookies. Can we make chocolate ones?" Tom said.
+
+"Sure, we can. But you have to help me and be careful. We don't want to burn the cookies or our fingers," Dad said.

+"OK, I will. I will be a good helper," Tom said.
+
+Lily and Tom smiled. They held Mom and Dad's hands and walked to the car. They said goodbye to the sun and the park. They were happy to go home.

+The next day, he came to the park early. He saw the blue bicycle parked near a tree. The new boy was not there. Tom looked around and saw no one. He decided to take the blue bicycle and ride it.
+
+He got on the blue bicycle and pushed the horn. It made a loud noise. He waved the flag and smiled. He felt very happy.
+
+But then he heard a voice behind him.
+
+"Hey, that's my bicycle! Give it back!" It was the new boy. He had seen Tom take his bicycle. He was very angry.
+
+Tom was scared. He tried to ride away, but the new boy was faster. He caught up with Tom and grabbed the blue bicycle. He pushed Tom off and made him fall.
+
+Tom hurt his knee and his elbow. He cried. He wished he had not taken the blue bicycle. He wished he had been nice to the new boy.
+
+The new boy looked at Tom and felt sorry. He saw that Tom was bald and had a red bicycle. He realized that Tom wanted to try his blue bicycle because it was different.
+
+"Hey, I am sorry. I was rude to you. Do you want to be friends?" he asked Tom.
+
+Tom looked up and nodded. He wiped his tears and smiled.
+
+"Okay, I am sorry too. I should not have taken your bicycle. Do you want to try my red bicycle?" he asked the new boy.
+
+The new boy nodded and smiled.
+
+"Okay, let's swap bicycles for a while. Then we can play together," he said.
+
+Tom and the new boy swapped bicycles and rode together. They had fun. They became friends. They learned to share and be kind.
+Lily was a shy girl who liked to play with her dolls. She did not like to talk to other kids or make new friends. She was afraid they would laugh at her or be mean to her.
+
+One day, her mom took her to the park. There were many kids there, running and shouting and having fun. Lily saw a swing that was empty and wanted to try it. But she was too scared to go near it.
+
+"Come on, Lily, don't be shy. You can play on the swing, it's fun!" her mom said.
+
+"But mom, what if someone else wants it? What if they push me or yell at me?" Lily said.
+
+"No one will do that, sweetie. And if they do, you can tell me and I will help you. You have to gain some courage and try new things. That's the only way you can make friends and have fun." her mom said.
+
+Lily looked at the swing again. It looked fun, but she was still nervous. She took a deep breath and walked slowly towards it. She sat on the seat and held the ropes. She felt the wind in her hair as she swung back and forth.
+
+She smiled and felt happy. She liked the swing. She looked around and saw a boy who was watching her. He had brown hair and blue eyes. He smiled at her and waved.
+
+"Hi, I'm Max. Can I swing with you?" he asked.
+
+Lily felt shy again. She did not know what to say. She looked at her mom, who nodded and smiled.
+
+"Hi, I'm Lily. Sure, you can swing with me." she said.
+
+Max ran to the swing next to her and sat on it. He started to swing too. He talked to Lily about his favorite toys and animals and colors. Lily listened and talked back. She found out they had some things in common. She felt less shy and more friendly.
+
+She and Max swung and talked and laughed. They had fun. They became friends. Lily was glad she tried the swing. She gained some courage and a new friend. She learned a new way to have fun.
+Lily and Max were at the park with their mom. They saw a big truck with colorful pictures of candy on it. The truck was a candy shop on wheels. Lily and Max loved candy. They ran to the truck and asked their mom if they could have some.
+
+"Please, mom, can we have some candy?" they said.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Okay, but only one each. And you have to mind your teeth and brush them later."
+
+Lily and Max nodded and thanked their mom. They looked at the candy in the truck. There were so many kinds. They had to choose one. Lily picked a pink lollipop with sprinkles. Max picked a blue gummy bear. They paid the candy man and took their candy.
+
+They went back to the bench where their mom was sitting. They licked and chewed their candy happily. They shared some with their mom. They said the candy was very yummy and sweet.
+
+"Can we have more candy, mom?" they asked.
+
+Mom shook her head and said, "No, that's enough for today. Too much candy is not good for you. You can have more another day."
+
+Lily and Max sighed. They wanted more candy, but they knew their mom was right. They finished their candy and threw the wrappers in the trash. They said goodbye to the candy truck and went to play on the swings. They had a fun day at the park.
+Lily and Ben were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big bird on a tree. The bird had dull feathers and a long neck.
+
+"Look, a bird!" Lily said.
+
+"What kind of bird is that?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe a duck?" Lily guessed.
+
+They walked closer to the tree. The bird saw them and made a loud noise. It sounded like a honk.
+
+"Quack, quack!" Lily and Ben said, trying to talk to the bird.
+
+The bird tilted its head and looked at them. It opened its beak and showed its tongue. It looked like it was smiling.
+
+"Hi, bird!" Lily and Ben said, smiling back.
+
+The bird honked again and flapped its wings. It flew away from the tree and over their heads.
+
+"Bye, bird!" Lily and Ben said, waving their hands.
+
+They laughed and ran after the bird. They had fun in the park. They were happy.
+Lily and Sam were twins who liked to watch the elevator in their building. They lived on the top floor with their mom and dad. Every day, they would run to the window and see who was coming or going in the elevator. They knew all the people and their names.
+
+One day, they saw a new man with a big suitcase. He had a funny hat and a long coat. He looked very tired and sad. Lily and Sam wondered who he was and where he came from.
+
+"Let's go say hello," Lily said to Sam. "Maybe he needs a friend."
+
+Sam nodded and they ran to the elevator. They pushed the button and waited. The elevator came and the door opened. The new man was inside. He looked surprised to see them.
+
+"Hi," Lily said. "We are Lily and Sam. We live on the top floor. What's your name?"
+
+The new man smiled a little. He said, "I'm Ben. I'm here to visit my aunt. She lives on the second floor."
+
+"Nice to meet you, Ben," Sam said. "Do you like the elevator? We watch it every day. It's fun."
+
+Ben nodded. He said, "I like the elevator, too. It's fast and smooth. But I don't have one where I live. I live in a humble house in the country. There are no elevators there. Only stairs and hills."
+
+Lily and Sam gasped. They couldn't imagine living without an elevator. They felt sorry for Ben. They wanted to make him happy.
+
+"Ben, do you want to play with us?" Lily asked. "We have lots of toys and books. And we can watch the elevator together."
+
+Ben's eyes lit up. He said, "Really? That would be very nice of you. Thank you, Lily and Sam. You are very kind."
+
+The elevator reached the second floor. Ben took his suitcase and got out. He said, "I'll be back soon. I just need to say hello to my aunt. Then I'll come play with you. OK?"
+
+Lily and Sam nodded. They said, "OK. We'll wait for you. Bye, Ben."
+
+They waved to him and pushed the button for the top floor. They were happy. They had made a new friend. And they had learned something new. They had learned that some people live in humble houses without elevators. And they had learned that those people can be very nice and friendly. And they had learned that watching the elevator can be more fun when you share it with someone.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the forest. They had a secret spot where they built a fort with sticks and leaves. One day, they decided to explore a new part of the forest. They saw a big tree with a hole in it.
+
+"Let's see what's inside!" said Tim.
+
+"OK, but be careful!" said Sam.
+
+They crawled into the hole and found a dark tunnel. They followed it for a long time, until they saw a light at the end. They came out of the tunnel and saw something amazing.
+
+They were in a different forest, with bright colors and strange animals. They saw a bird with a rainbow tail, a rabbit with horns, and a flower that sang. They felt like they were in a dream.
+
+"Wow, this is so cool!" said Tim.
+
+"Where are we?" said Sam.
+
+They heard a voice behind them. It was a man with a long beard and a pointy hat. He smiled and said, "Welcome to the magic forest, boys. You have found the twist in the tree, the secret door to my world. I have been waiting for you."
+
+The man was a wizard, and he had a surprise for them. He wanted to show them his magic and teach them some tricks. He also had a warning for them. They had to be back in their own forest before the sun set, or they would be stuck in the magic forest forever.
+
+Tim and Sam were excited and curious. They followed the wizard and learned a lot of fun things. They also had a lot of questions. They wondered what would happen if they stayed in the magic forest. They wondered if they could ever come back. They wondered if anyone would miss them. They wondered if they made a good choice.
+Anna and Ben are at the park with Mom. They like to play on the slide. It is big and yellow and shiny. Anna goes first. She climbs up the ladder and sits on the slide. She smiles and says, "Whee!" as she slides down.
+
+Ben wants to go next. He runs to the ladder and starts to climb. But he sees something on the slide. It is black and furry and has eight legs. It is a spider! Ben is scared of spiders. He stops and points at the spider. He screams, "Spider! Spider! Help!"
+
+Mom hears Ben scream. She looks at the slide and sees the spider. She is not scared of spiders. She walks to the slide and picks up the spider. She says, "Don't worry, Ben. It is just a spider. It won't hurt you. It is more afraid of you than you are of it. See?" She shows Ben the spider in her hand. It is small and quiet.
+
+Ben looks at the spider. He sees that it is not so big and scary. He says, "Sorry, spider. I didn't mean to scream. You can go now." Mom lets the spider go on the grass. It crawls away.
+
+Anna says, "Can I go again, Mom?" Mom says, "Yes, you can. And Ben, do you want to try the slide too?" Ben says, "Yes, I do. I am not scared anymore." He climbs up the ladder and sits on the slide.

+Tom and Lily were playing outside with their ball. They liked to throw the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they missed and the ball rolled away. They had to run after it and bring it back.
+
+One day, the ball rolled too far and went into the street. Tom and Lily ran after it, but they did not look for cars. A big car was coming fast and honked its horn. Tom and Lily were frightened and stopped. The car hit the ball and made a loud noise. The ball popped and flew into the sky.
+
+Tom and Lily started to cry. They wanted their ball back. They looked at the sky and saw the ball was gone. They heard the car driver yell at them. He was angry and said they were naughty and stupid. He said they could have been hurt or killed. He said they should never play in the street.
+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry and scared. They ran back to their house and told their mom what happened. Their mom was also angry and sad. She said they were lucky to be alive. She said they should always look for cars and stay away from the street. She said they should wash their faces and go to their room. She said they could not play with any toys for a week.
+
+Tom and Lily did what their mom said. They washed their faces and went to their room. They did not have any fun. They missed their ball and their toys. They learned their lesson. They never played in the street again.
+
+The moral of the story is: Playing in the street is dangerous and wrong. Always look for cars and stay safe. Listen to your mom and follow the rules.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play together. But they did not like to share their toys or their food. One day, their mom made them a yummy lunch of macaroni and cheese. She gave them each a plate and a fork and told them to eat nicely.
+
+But Ben and Lily did not eat nicely. They started to fight over who had more macaroni and who had the bigger fork. They threw their forks at each other and spilled their plates on the floor. They made a big mess in the kitchen.

+But their mom was faster and stronger. She grabbed them by their arms and dragged them to their room. She locked the door and said they had to stay there until they learned to behave. She said they could not have any dinner or dessert. She said they had to sleep in their room all night.
+
+Ben and Lily were very sad and scared. They did not like their room. It was dark and cold and lonely. They did not have any toys or books or blankets. They did not have each other. They wished they had been nice and shared their macaroni and cheese and their forks. They wished they had not made a mess in the kitchen. They wished they had said sorry to their mom.

+Lily and Max are best friends. They like to play and learn together. One day, their teacher says they will have a quiz. A quiz is when you answer questions about what you know.
+
+Lily and Max are excited. They want to do well on the quiz. They study their books and cards. They help each other remember the words and numbers.
+
+The next day, they go to school. They sit at their desks and wait for the quiz. The teacher gives them a paper with pictures and words. Lily and Max look at the paper. They smile. They know the answers.

+
+One day, they see a big puddle on the road. It looks like fun to splash in it. They ride their bikes fast and jump into the water. They laugh and scream. They get wet and dirty. They do not see the dark clouds in the sky.
+
+"Tom, Lily, come home now!" their moms and dads call from their houses. "It is going to rain soon. You need to take a bath and have dinner. It is evening time."
+
+Tom and Lily do not want to stop playing. They think they can prevent the rain. They say to each other: "Let's stay a little longer. The rain will not come. We can make the puddle bigger and have more fun."
+
+They ignore their moms and dads. They keep splashing in the puddle. They do not notice the wind and the thunder. They do not hear the raindrops falling. They only feel the cold and the wet.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud boom. They see a bright flash. They are scared. They drop their bikes and run to their houses. They are shivering and crying. They wish they had listened to their moms and dads.
+
+Their moms and dads are angry and worried. They scold them for being naughty and careless. They dry them and dress them. They give them soup and bread. They hug them and kiss them. They tell them to be good and safe.

+Tom and Lily are sorry and sad. They say sorry to their moms and dads. They say sorry to each other. They promise to obey and be careful. They hope to play again tomorrow. They hope to have a great day.
+Tom and Lily were playing with a rope in the park. They liked to swing the rope and jump over it. They took turns and had fun.
+
+But then, Ben came and wanted to play too. He grabbed the rope from Lily and ran away. He did not want to share. He was selfish.
+
+"Stop!" Lily shouted. "That is our rope! Give it back!"
+
+"No!" Ben said. "It is mine now! You can't have it!"
+
+Tom and Lily ran after Ben. They were angry and sad. They wanted their rope back.
+
+They caught up with Ben near a big tree. They tried to pull the rope from him. But Ben was strong and held on tight. They all fell to the ground and the rope broke.
+
+"Oh no!" they all said. "Look what you did!"
+
+They looked at the rope. It was torn in two pieces. It was useless. They could not play with it anymore.
+
+They all felt sorry. They realized they were wrong. They should have been nice and shared.
+
+"I'm sorry," Ben said. "I was selfish. I should have asked to play with you."
+
+"I'm sorry too," Tom said. "I was angry. I should have been calm and talked to you."
+
+"I'm sorry as well," Lily said. "I was sad. I should have been kind and invited you."
+
+They all hugged and said they were friends. They decided to find another toy to play with. They saw a ball and a hoop. They asked each other if they wanted to play. They all said yes. They smiled and ran to the ball and the hoop. They played together and had fun. They learned to share.
+Ben and Lily were going to the zoo with their mom. They had to take the subway to get there. Ben liked the subway. He liked the loud noise and the fast speed. Lily did not like the subway. She thought it was scary and dark.
+
+"Mom, can I sit by the window?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, honey. You can sit by the window and see the tunnels," Mom said.
+
+"Mom, can I sit on your lap?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, sweetie. You can sit on my lap and hold my hand," Mom said.
+
+They got on the subway and found their seats. Ben looked out the window and saw the lights and the walls. He smiled and said, "Wow, this is fun!"
+
+Lily closed her eyes and hugged Mom. She said, "I don't like this. When will we get there?"
+
+"Soon, darling. Soon we will see the animals and the trees," Mom said.
+
+The subway went on and on. It made a harsh sound when it turned. Ben liked the sound. He said, "Did you hear that? It sounds like a lion!"
+
+Lily did not like the sound. She said, "No, it sounds like a monster!"
+
+Mom hugged them both and said, "Don't worry, it's just the subway. It's not a lion or a monster. It's a big train that takes us to the zoo. And you know what? We're almost there. Look, there's the sign. It says 'Zoo Station'. Are you ready to get off?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They got off the subway and followed Mom. They saw the sun and the sky. They smelled the flowers and the grass. They heard the birds and the monkeys. They felt happy and excited. They said, "Yay, we're at the zoo!"
+Sara and Ben were bored. They had nothing to do. The sky was dull and gray. They could not go outside and play.
+
+"Let's play hide and seek!" Sara said. "You count to ten and I hide."
+
+"Okay," Ben said. He closed his eyes and started to count. "One, two, three..."
+
+Sara ran to the living room. She looked for a good place to hide. She saw the big curtain that covered the window. She thought it was a good place to hide. She went behind the curtain and waited.
+
+"Ten!" Ben shouted. He opened his eyes and looked for Sara. He went to the kitchen, the bathroom, the bedroom, but he could not find her. He went back to the living room. He saw the big curtain that covered the window. He thought Sara might be behind it. He decided to throw a pillow at the curtain to make her come out.
+
+He picked up a pillow from the couch and threw it hard at the curtain. But he did not know that the curtain was not attached to the rod very well. The pillow hit the curtain and the curtain fell down. Sara was behind the curtain. She was surprised and scared. She screamed.
+
+"Ah!" Sara screamed.
+
+"Ah!" Ben screamed.
+
+Mom heard the screams and came to the living room. She saw the curtain on the floor and Sara and Ben looking scared.
+
+"What happened?" Mom asked.
+
+"Sara was hiding behind the curtain and I threw a pillow at her and the curtain fell down and we screamed," Ben said.
+
+"Sara, are you okay?" Mom asked.
+
+"I'm okay, Mom, but I was scared," Sara said.
+
+Mom hugged Sara and Ben. She was not angry. She knew they were just playing.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom, we did not mean to make the curtain fall down," Ben said.
+
+"It's okay, Ben, it was an accident. But next time, be careful when you throw things. And don't hide behind the curtain. It's not safe," Mom said.
+
+"Okay, Mom, we won't do it again," Sara and Ben said.
+
+Mom smiled and helped them put the curtain back on the rod. She told them to find another game to play. Sara and Ben said sorry to each other and hugged. They were not bored anymore. They were happy.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys and books. But today, they are bored. They have no new games to play.
+
+"Let's go outside and see what we can find," Sara says.
+
+"OK," Tom says. They put on their coats and hats and go out the door.
+
+They walk around the yard and look for something fun. They see a big box by the fence. It has a red bow on it.
+
+"Wow, what is that?" Sara asks.
+
+"Maybe it is a surprise for us," Tom says.
+
+They run to the box and open it. Inside, they see a lot of balloons and confetti. They also see a note that says, "Happy birthday, Sara and Tom! You are twins and you are three years old today. We love you, Mom and Dad."
+
+Sara and Tom are so happy. They hug each other and say, "Thank you, Mom and Dad!"
+
+They play with the balloons and confetti. They make noises and laugh. They are not bored anymore. They have a surprise party.
+Anna and Ben wanted to play outside. They put on their coats and boots and hats. They opened the door and saw snow. Lots of snow. It was white and soft and cold.
+
+"Wow!" Anna said. "Let's make a snowman!"
+
+"OK!" Ben said. "But first, let's slide down the stairs!"
+
+They ran to the stairs that led to the street. But the stairs were not normal. They were icy. Very icy. They were shiny and slippery and hard.
+
+Anna went first. She sat on the top stair and pushed herself. She slid down very fast. She screamed and laughed. She reached the bottom and fell on the snow.
+
+"Yay!" she said. "That was fun!"
+
+Ben saw Anna and wanted to try. He sat on the top stair and pushed himself. He slid down very fast. He screamed and laughed. He reached the bottom and fell on the snow.
+
+"Yay!" he said. "That was fun!"
+
+They did it again and again. They slid down the icy stairs and fell on the snow. They giggled and shouted. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Then they heard a voice. It was their mom. She was at the door. She looked worried.
+
+"Anna! Ben!" she called. "Come inside! It's too cold and dangerous to play on the icy stairs!"
+
+Anna and Ben looked at each other. They were having fun, but they also loved their mom. They did not want to make her sad or angry.
+
+"OK, mom!" they said. They got up and ran to the door. They hugged their mom and said sorry.
+
+"It's OK, my loves," she said. "But you have to be careful. The icy stairs can hurt you. Next time, ask me before you play outside, OK?"
+
+"OK, mom," they said. They went inside and took off their coats and boots and hats. They drank some hot chocolate and ate some cookies. They told their mom about their adventure on the icy stairs. She smiled and listened. She was happy they were safe and warm.
+Lily and Max liked to play with tape. They had many colors of tape and they made shapes and pictures on the wall. They also liked to tape their toys together and pretend they were new things.
+
+One day, they found a big roll of tape in the garage. It was shiny and silver and very sticky. Lily and Max wanted to play with it, but they saw a sign on it. The sign had a picture of fire and a word they did not know. It was "dangerous".
+
+Lily and Max did not care. They thought the sign was silly and the tape was fun. They took the tape and ran to their room. They started to tape everything they could find. They taped their bed, their lamp, their books, their clothes, and even their cat.
+
+The cat did not like the tape. It meowed and scratched and tried to get free. Lily and Max laughed and taped more. They did not see that the tape was not normal tape. It was special tape that made sparks when it touched something. The sparks were small at first, but then they grew bigger and hotter.
+
+Soon, the tape caught fire. The fire spread to the things that were taped. The room was full of smoke and flames. Lily and Max were scared. They screamed and cried for help. Their mom and dad heard them and ran to their room. They saw the fire and grabbed Lily and Max. They pushed them out of the room and called the firemen.
+
+The firemen came and put out the fire. They asked Lily and Max what happened. Lily and Max told them about the tape. The firemen shook their heads and said that the tape was dangerous. It was not for playing. It was for fixing pipes and wires. They said that Lily and Max were lucky that they were not hurt.
+
+Lily and Max felt sorry and ashamed. They said sorry to their mom and dad and to their cat. They said they would never play with tape again. They learned that some things are dangerous and not for playing. They learned to listen to signs and to their mom and dad. They hugged their mom and dad and their cat and said they loved them.
+Sara and Ben like to play in the park. They see a big log. They want to balance on the log. They take turns to walk on the log. They try not to fall off.
+
+Sara says, "I can balance better than you, Ben. I can walk all the way to the end of the log." Ben says, "No, you can't. I can balance better than you, Sara. I can walk backwards on the log."
+
+They both try to show each other how good they are at balancing. They walk faster and faster on the log. They do not look where they are going. They bump into each other. They lose their balance. They fall off the log. They land on the grass. They laugh.
+
+They see a lady sitting on a bench. She has a book in her hand. She is reading the book. She looks peaceful. Sara and Ben are curious. They go to the lady. They say, "Hello, lady. What are you reading?"
+
+The lady smiles. She says, "Hello, children. I am reading a book of spells. Spells are words that can do magic. Do you want to hear a spell?"
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They like magic. They sit next to the lady. The lady reads a spell from the book. She says, "This spell can make you happy. It goes like this: Happy, happy, happy, happy, happy. Say it with me."
+
+Sara and Ben say the spell with the lady. They say, "Happy, happy, happy, happy, happy." They feel happy. They smile. They hug the lady. They say, "Thank you, lady. You are very nice. We like your spell."
+
+The lady says, "You are very welcome, children. You are very sweet. I like your balance." They all laugh. They feel peaceful. They enjoy the park.
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play together. But sometimes they also liked to win and be the best. They were competitive.
+
+One day, they found a jar of honey in the kitchen. They both loved honey and wanted to eat some. But there was only one spoon.
+
+"I saw it first!" Lily said. "I want the honey!"
+
+"No, I saw it first!" Max said. "I want the honey!"
+
+They both reached for the spoon and tried to pull it. But the spoon was slippery and they dropped it. The jar of honey fell too and broke on the floor.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Max said. "Look what we did!"
+
+They saw the honey spilling everywhere and the glass pieces shining. They felt sorry and scared.
+
+They heard their mom coming and ran to hide. They hoped she would not be angry.
+
+But mom was not angry. She was worried. She saw the mess and looked for the twins.
+
+"Lily, Max, where are you?" she called. "Are you okay?"
+
+She found them under the table, holding hands.
+
+"We're sorry, mom," Lily and Max said. "We wanted the honey and we fought and we broke the jar."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "It's okay, my loves. I'm glad you're not hurt. But you have to be careful. Honey is sticky and sweet, but glass is sharp and dangerous. You should never touch it. And you should never fight over things. You can always share and take turns."
+
+Lily and Max nodded and said, "We're sorry, mom. We love you. And we love each other."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I love you too. And I have more honey in the cupboard. Do you want some?"
+
+Lily and Max smiled and said, "Yes, please!"
+
+They followed mom to the kitchen and washed their hands. Then they each got a spoon and a plate of honey. They ate it happily and said, "Thank you, mom. This is the best honey ever!"
+
+They learned their lesson and never fought over honey again. They were still competitive, but they also learned to share and be kind.
+Lily and Ben were friends. They liked to play in the snow. One day, they saw a big hill. It looked fun to slide down.

+"Let's go, Lily!" Ben said. "We can use this tray as a sled."
+
+"OK, Ben!" Lily said. "But be careful. The hill is very steep and icy."
+
+They climbed up the hill with the tray. They hoped they would have a good time. They did not see the fence at the bottom of the hill.
+
+They sat on the tray and pushed off. They went very fast. They felt the wind in their faces. They laughed and screamed.
+
+"Wow, this is fun!" Ben said.
+
+"Look out, Ben!" Lily said. "There is a fence!"
+
+They tried to stop, but it was too late. They hit the fence with a loud crash. The tray broke. They felt a lot of pain. They cried and cried.
+
+A man heard them and came to help. He called their parents. He said they were lucky they did not break any bones. But they had many cuts and bruises. They had to go to the hospital.
+
+They did not have a good time. They had a bad result. They wished they had listened to Lily. They learned a hard lesson.
+Anna likes to make things with paper and scissors. She cuts out shapes and colors them with crayons. She makes a star, a heart, a flower and a butterfly. She is very happy with her paper things.
+
+She wants to show them to her mom and dad. She runs to the living room, where they are watching TV. She says, "Look, look, what I made!" She holds up her paper things and smiles.
+
+Mom and dad are proud of Anna. They say, "Wow, Anna, you are very good at cutting and coloring. Your paper things are very pretty." They hug her and kiss her.
+
+Anna feels a spark in her chest. She is very happy. She says, "Thank you, mom and dad. I love you very much." She gives them her paper things as a gift. They say, "Thank you, Anna. We love you very much, too."
+
+They put her paper things on the wall, next to the TV. They fit very well there. They make the wall more colorful and bright. Anna looks at them and smiles. She is very happy with her paper things.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big jar of jelly on a bench. It was red and shiny. They wanted to eat it.
+
+"Let's crawl to the jelly," Lily said. "Maybe no one is looking."
+
+"OK," Tom said. "But we have to be polite and share."
+
+They crawled to the bench. They reached for the jar. But the jar was not jelly. It was paint. It spilled on them. They were red and sticky.
+
+"Help!" Lily cried. "This is not jelly. This is paint. It hurts."
+
+"Help!" Tom cried. "This is not jelly. This is paint. It is bad."
+
+A man came running. He was angry. He was the owner of the paint. He wanted to paint the bench.
+
+"What are you doing?" he shouted. "You ruined my paint. You are naughty. You have to pay."
+
+He grabbed Lily and Tom. He took them to their parents. Their parents were mad. They had to pay for the paint. They had to clean Lily and Tom. They had to say sorry.
+
+Lily and Tom were sad. They learned a lesson. They should not crawl to things that are not theirs. They should not eat things that are not food. They should be careful and smart.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her toys. She had a doll, a bear, a ball and a car. She gave them all names. The doll was Anna, the bear was Ben, the ball was Coco and the car was Dan. She liked to make them talk and have fun.
+
+One day, Lily was playing with her toys in her room. She pretended that Anna and Ben were having a tea party, and Coco and Dan were racing around the floor. She made them say hello and bye and thank you and please. She was having a lot of fun.
+
+But then, she heard her mom call her from the kitchen. "Lily, it's time for lunch!" her mom said. Lily put her toys down and ran to the kitchen. She was hungry. She saw her mom had made her a sandwich and some soup. She said thank you and sat down to eat.
+
+She took a bite of her sandwich. It was good. She liked cheese and ham. She took a sip of her soup. It was hot. She blew on it to cool it down. She took another sip. It was spicy. She made a face and said, "Mom, this soup is spicy!"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "I know, honey. I put some pepper in it. Do you like it?" Lily shook her head and said, "No, mom. I don't like spicy. It makes my tongue hurt." Her mom said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I thought you might like to try something new. Here, have some water and some fruit. They will make your tongue feel better."
+
+Lily drank some water and ate some fruit. They did make her tongue feel better. She finished her lunch and said, "Mom, can I go back to play with my toys?" Her mom said, "Yes, you can. But first, you need to take a nap. You look tired. Naps are good for you. They make you grow and dream."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "OK, mom. I will take a nap. But can I take my toys with me?" Her mom said, "Sure, you can. But only one. Which one do you want?" Lily thought for a moment and said, "I want Ben. He is soft and cuddly. He will keep me warm and safe." Her mom said, "OK, then. Take Ben and go to your bed. I will tuck you in and read you a story."
+
+Lily took Ben and went to her bed. Her mom tucked her in and read her a story. It was about a princess and a dragon. Lily liked the story. She hugged Ben and closed her eyes. She fell asleep and had a dream. She dreamed that she and Ben were flying on the dragon. They saw Anna, Coco and Dan waving at them from the ground. They waved back and smiled. They were happy.
+Mia and Leo were playing with their toys in the living room. Mia had a big box of figures that she liked to make stories with. Leo had a small car that he liked to zoom around. Mia saw Leo's car and wanted to play with it.
+
+"Can I borrow your car, Leo?" Mia asked.
+
+"No, it's mine. You have your figures," Leo said.
+
+"But I want to try your car. It looks fun. Please, Leo," Mia begged.
+
+"No, no, no. Go away, Mia," Leo said.
+
+Mia felt sad and angry. She thought Leo was being mean. She looked at her figures and had an idea. She picked up a figure that looked like a monster and made it roar.
+
+"Rawr! I'm a hungry monster and I'm going to eat your car!" Mia said.
+
+She moved the figure towards Leo's car and pretended to bite it.
+
+"Hey, stop that! That's not nice!" Leo shouted.
+
+He grabbed his car and tried to pull it away from Mia. Mia held on to the figure and the car. They both pulled and tugged until the car broke in half.
+
+"Oh no! Look what you did! You broke my car!" Leo cried.
+
+He threw the car pieces on the floor and ran to his mom.
+
+Mia felt sorry and scared. She didn't mean to break Leo's car. She just wanted to play with it. She followed Leo and his mom.
+
+"I'm sorry, Leo. I'm sorry, mom. I didn't mean to break the car. I just wanted to borrow it," Mia said.
+
+She gave Leo the figure and hoped he would forgive her.
+
+Leo's mom looked at the car and the figure. She saw that they were both old and cheap. She knew that Mia and Leo were both young and didn't know how to share. She smiled and hugged them both.
+
+"It's okay, Mia. It's okay, Leo. It was an accident. You both need to learn how to ask and give nicely. How about we go to the kitchen and have some yummy cookies?" she said.
+
+Mia and Leo nodded and smiled. They liked cookies. They liked mom. They liked each other. They went to the kitchen and had some yummy cookies. They decided to share their toys next time. They were happy.
+Anna likes to ride her bike. She rides fast and slow, up and down, around and around. She has a bell on her bike. She rings it when she sees her friends.
+
+One day, she rides to the park. She sees Ben and Lily. They are playing with a jug. The jug is big and blue. It has water inside.
+
+"Hi, Anna!" Ben and Lily say. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Anna says. She parks her bike and joins them. They take turns to pour water from the jug. They make splashes and bubbles. They laugh and have fun.
+
+But then, Ben has an idea. He sees a lemon tree. He picks a lemon and squeezes it into the jug. He makes a sour face.
+
+"Let's make lemonade!" he says. He shakes the jug and smiles.
+
+"Yum, lemonade!" Lily says. She takes the jug and drinks. But she spits out the water. It is very sour. She makes a sour face too.
+
+"Yuck, Ben! That's not lemonade!" she says. She gives the jug to Anna.
+
+"Here, Anna. You try!" she says.
+
+Anna looks at the jug. She does not want to drink. She knows it is sour. She has a better idea. She takes the jug and pours the water on Ben's head.
+
+"Ha, ha, Anna!" Ben says. He is wet and sour. He chases Anna. Anna runs away. She rings her bell. Lily joins them. They run and play. They are happy.
+Sara and Ben like to play catch with their ball. They throw the ball to each other and try not to drop it. One day, they find a big sack in the yard. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Let's open it and see," Sara says.
+
+"OK, but be careful. It might be fragile," Ben says.
+
+They untie the sack and look inside. They see many shiny things. They are cups and plates and vases. They are all different colors and shapes. They are very pretty.
+
+"Wow, these are nice. Where did they come from?" Sara asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe someone left them here by mistake," Ben says.
+
+"Can we play with them?" Sara asks.
+
+"I don't think so. They might break. They are fragile. We should put them back in the sack and tell mom and dad," Ben says.
+
+But Sara does not listen. She picks up a blue vase and throws it to Ben. Ben is not ready. He tries to catch it, but he misses. The vase falls to the ground and breaks into many pieces. They hear a loud crash.
+
+"Oh no! What have you done?" Ben says.
+
+"I'm sorry. I just wanted to play," Sara says.
+
+They hear mom and dad coming. They are angry. They see the broken vase and the open sack.
+
+"Who did this? What is going on?" mom says.
+
+Sara and Ben feel bad. They know they are in trouble. They tell the truth. They say they are sorry.
+
+Mom and dad are not happy. They explain that the sack belongs to their neighbor, Mrs. Lee. She is moving to a new house. She asked them to keep her things safe until she comes back. They say they have to pay for the broken vase. They say they have to be more careful and respectful with other people's things. They say they have to learn from their mistake.
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They say they understand. They say they will not do it again. They say they will help mom and dad clean up the mess. They say they will say sorry to Mrs. Lee. They hope she will forgive them. They hope they can still play catch with their ball. But not with fragile things.
+Jill and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, Jill gets a new toy. It is a mop. Jill likes to pretend that she is cleaning the floor with the mop. She makes swish-swish sounds and smiles.
+
+Ben sees Jill's new toy. He wants to play with it too. He feels jealous. He says to Jill, "Can I have a turn with your mop? It looks fun."
+
+Jill says, "No, it is my mop. I got it today. You have your own toys. Go play with them."
+
+Ben feels sad and angry. He says, "That is not fair. You are not a good friend. You are mean."
+
+Jill says, "You are not a good friend either. You are greedy. You always want what I have."
+
+They start to argue. They shout and cry. They do not play together anymore.
+
+Then, Mom arrives. She hears the noise. She sees Jill and Ben. She says, "What is going on here? Why are you fighting?"
+
+Jill and Ben tell Mom what happened. Mom says, "You both need to calm down and share. The mop is just a toy. It is not worth losing a friend over. How about you take turns with the mop and play nicely?"
+
+Jill and Ben think about what Mom says. They feel sorry. They say, "You are right, Mom. We are sorry. We will share and play nicely."
+
+They hug and make up. They take turns with the mop and play other games. They have fun. They are friends again.
+Lila was a new girl in her class. She did not know anyone. She felt shy and scared. She wanted to make friends, but she did not know how.
+
+One day, the teacher said they would have a tea party. She asked the children to bring their favorite cups and plates. Lila brought her pink cup and plate with flowers. She hoped someone would like them.

+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is black and white. It has a red collar. The dog is not with a person.
+
+"Look, a dog!" Anna says. "Can we pet it?"
+
+Ben is not sure. He thinks the dog might be angry or scared. He says, "We have to be careful. Maybe the dog is lost. Maybe it will bite us."
+
+Anna wants to be brave. She says, "No, the dog is nice. See, it is wagging its tail. It wants to play with us."
+
+She walks slowly to the dog. She holds out her hand. The dog sniffs her hand. Then it licks her face. Anna laughs. She says, "See, the dog likes me. It is a good dog."
+
+Ben is still afraid. He says, "But we don't know the dog. Maybe it has a name. Maybe it has a home. Maybe someone is looking for it."
+
+Anna says, "We can find out. We can look at its collar. Maybe it has a tag. Maybe it has a phone number. We can call the person and tell them we found their dog."
+
+She bends down to look at the collar. She sees a tag. It has a word on it. She says, "The dog has a name. It is True. That is a funny name for a dog."
+
+Ben says, "Maybe it is because the dog is true. Maybe it is loyal and honest and brave. Maybe it is a special dog."
+
+Anna says, "Maybe you are right. Maybe True is a special dog. We should gather some water and food for it. It must be thirsty and hungry. We should be kind to it."
+
+Ben agrees. He says, "Yes, we should. Maybe True will be our friend. Maybe we can play with it until we find its person. We should be serious and responsible."
+
+They run to the fountain and fill a bottle with water. They find some bread and cheese in their backpacks. They go back to True. They give it water and food. They pet it and talk to it. They play with it and have fun.
+
+True is happy. It wags its tail and barks. It likes Anna and Ben. It thinks they are nice and smart and fun. It thinks they are special. It thinks they are true.
+Sara and Ben were friends who liked to play in the garden. They had a big patch of dirt where they could dig and make things. One day, they decided to discuss what to make with the dirt.
+
+"I want to make a castle with a moat and a bridge," Sara said.
+
+"I want to make a mountain with a tunnel and a cave," Ben said.
+
+They could not agree on what to make. They started to argue and shout.
+
+"That's a silly idea! My idea is better!" Sara said.
+
+"No, it's not! Your idea is boring! My idea is cooler!" Ben said.
+
+They got so angry that they began to throw dirt at each other. They made a big mess and ruined their patch of dirt. They also hurt each other and made each other cry.
+
+Their mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw the dirt and the tears and was very upset.
+
+"What have you done? Why are you so rude to each other? You are supposed to be friends!" she said.
+
+She made them go inside and wash up. She also told them they could not play in the garden for a week. They had to sit in their rooms and think about what they did.
+
+Sara and Ben felt very sorry and sad. They wished they had not fought over the dirt. They wished they had shared and played nicely. They wished they could say sorry and be friends again. But it was too late. They had a bad ending.
+Tom and Amy were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big house with many windows and a tall gate. They wanted to see what was inside, so they climbed over the gate and ran to the door.
+
+"Maybe we can find some toys or candy in there," Tom said.
+
+"Or maybe we can meet someone nice who lives there," Amy said.
+
+They knocked on the door, but no one answered. They pushed the door and it opened. They walked into the house and saw many rooms with strange things. They saw a big sofa with a lot of pillows, a table with a lot of books, and a shelf with a lot of masks.
+
+"Look at these masks, they are so funny and scary," Tom said. He picked up a mask that looked like a lion and put it on his face. He roared and chased Amy around the room.
+
+"Ahh, help, help, the lion is after me," Amy screamed. She ran away from Tom and hid behind a curtain. She saw a mask that looked like a princess and put it on her face. She peeked out from the curtain and said, "Don't worry, I am a princess and I can save you from the lion."
+
+They laughed and played with the masks for a while. They forgot that they were in an unknown house and that they should go back home soon.
+
+They did not hear the sound of a car parking outside. They did not see the man who walked into the house. He was the owner of the house and he did not like children. He saw Tom and Amy playing with his masks and he was very angry.
+
+"Who are you and what are you doing in my house?" he shouted. He grabbed Tom by the arm and pulled off his mask. He saw his scared face and said, "You are a thief and a liar. You are not a lion, you are a rat. You have to pay for breaking into my house and touching my things."
+
+He dragged Tom to another room and locked the door. He did not see Amy, who was still hiding behind the curtain. She heard Tom's cry and felt very sorry. She wanted to help him, but she did not know what to do. She was too afraid to move or speak.
+
+She wished that someone would come and save them. She wished that they had never gone into the house. She wished that they had listened to their moms, who always reminded them to stay away from strangers and unknown places. She wished that they had never put on the masks.
+Lily likes to dance. She dances every day in her room. She dances with her dolls, her teddy and her cat. She dances fast and slow, happy and sad, big and small. She likes to try different dances.

+
+They tell Lily they are learning a new dance. They say it is a dance from another place. They say it is different from their dances. They ask Lily if she wants to learn it. Lily says yes, she likes to learn new things. They say they will teach her. They say they recommend it. They say it is fun and easy.

+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a shiny thing on the ground. It was a diamond. Lily picked it up and said, "Look, Tom, I found a diamond! It is so pretty and sparkly!"
+
+Tom wanted the diamond too. He said, "No, Lily, it is mine! I saw it first! Give it to me!" He tried to grab the diamond from Lily's hand.
+
+Lily did not want to share. She said, "No, Tom, it is mine! I found it! Go away!" She ran away from Tom with the diamond.
+
+Tom was angry. He chased after Lily. He shouted, "Stop, Lily, stop! Give me the diamond! It is not fair!"
+
+Lily did not stop. She ran faster and faster. She did not see the big hole in the ground. She fell into the hole with the diamond. She hurt her leg and cried.
+
+Tom heard Lily's cry. He ran to the hole and looked down. He saw Lily and the diamond. He said, "Lily, are you okay? I'm sorry, I was mean. Can I help you?"
+
+Lily said, "Tom, I'm sorry, too. I was selfish. I should have shared with you. Can you get me out of here?"
+
+Tom tried to reach Lily, but the hole was too deep. He could not get her out. He said, "Lily, I can't get you out. I need to get help. Stay calm, okay?"
+
+Lily said, "Okay, Tom, please hurry. I'm scared."
+
+Tom ran to get help. He saw a man with a big truck. He said, "Mister, mister, please help me! My friend is in a hole with a diamond! She is hurt and scared! Please help me!"
+
+The man said, "A hole with a diamond? Where is it? Show me!"
+
+Tom said, "Follow me, mister, follow me!" He led the man to the hole.
+
+The man looked at the hole and saw the diamond. He said, "Wow, what a big diamond! It must be worth a lot of money! Thank you, kid, for showing me!"
+
+The man took a rope and a bucket from his truck. He said, "Kid, hold this rope. I'm going to get the diamond."
+
+Tom said, "But what about my friend? She is in the hole, too!"
+
+The man said, "Don't worry, kid, I'll get her out later. First, I need to get the diamond. It is more important."
+
+The man lowered the bucket into the hole. He said, "Hey, girl, put the diamond in the bucket. I'll pull you up."
+
+Lily said, "But the diamond is mine! I found it!"
+
+The man said, "No, girl, the diamond is mine! I have the rope and the bucket. Put the diamond in the bucket or I'll leave you in the hole."
+
+Lily was scared. She did not want to stay in the hole. She put the diamond in the bucket.
+
+The man pulled up the bucket. He took the diamond and smiled. He said, "Ha, ha, ha, I got the diamond! It is mine, all mine!"
+
+Tom said, "But what about my friend? You said you would get her out!"
+
+The man said, "Sorry, kid, I lied. I don't care about your friend. I only care about the diamond. Bye, bye, kid!"
+
+The man got into his truck and drove away with the diamond. He left Tom and Lily in the park.
+
+Tom cried. He said, "Lily, I'm so sorry. I should have never wanted the diamond. It was a bad thing. It made us fight and it made the man take it and leave us. It was not worth it."
+
+Lily cried, too. She said, "Tom, I'm so sorry, too. I should have never kept the diamond. It was a greedy thing. It made me run and fall and it made the man trick us and leave us. It was not worth it."
+
+Tom and Lily were stuck in the park. They did not know what to do. They wished they had never seen the diamond. They wished they had been nice to each other. They wished they had been calm and smart.
+
+The moral of the story is: Diamonds are not always a girl's best friend. Sometimes, they can cause trouble and pain. It is better to be kind and share than to be selfish and greedy. And it is better to be calm and smart than to be angry and foolish.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, Anna has an invitation for Ben. She made it with paper and crayons. It is very original. It says: Come to my party. It is on Saturday. We will have cake and games.

+
+"Wow, it is pretty!" Ben says. He tries to talk to the parrot. "Hello, bird, what is your name?"
+
+The parrot looks at Ben and says, "Hello, Ben, my name is Polly. Do you want a tour of the zoo?"
+
+Anna and Ben are surprised. They did not know that the parrot can talk. They nod and say, "Yes, please!"
+
+Polly says, "OK, follow me. I will show you the lions, the monkeys, the elephants, and more. But you have to be quiet and careful. Some animals are scary and some are shy."
+
+Anna and Ben agree. They hold their moms' hands and follow Polly. Polly flies from cage to cage and tells them about the animals. She is very smart and funny. She makes Anna and Ben laugh.

+Polly says, "You are welcome, Anna and Ben. You are good friends, too. You listen to me and respect me. Come back soon. I will miss you."
+
+Anna and Ben wave goodbye to Polly. They hug their moms and go home. They are happy. They had a great day at the zoo.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the tent that they made with a big sheet and some chairs. They liked to pretend that they were camping in the forest. They had a flashlight that they used to make shadows on the sheet.
+
+"Look, I can make a rabbit with my fingers," Lily said, holding the flashlight in one hand and moving her fingers in front of it.
+
+"That's cool, but I can make a bird," Tom said, doing the same with his other hand.
+
+They took turns making different animals and making noises to match them. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Then they heard a knock on the sheet. It was Grandma, who was elderly and had white hair and glasses. She smiled at them and peeked inside the tent.
+
+"Hello, my little campers. Are you having a good time?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, Grandma, we are. We are making shadows with the flashlight," Lily said.
+
+"That's very creative. Do you want to come out and have some cookies and milk?" Grandma asked.
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom said.
+
+They crawled out of the tent and followed Grandma to the kitchen. They left the flashlight inside the tent.
+
+"Can we play in the tent again later?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, dear. But first, let's fold the sheet and put it away. We don't want to leave a mess," Grandma said.
+
+They helped Grandma fold the sheet and put it back in the closet. Then they enjoyed the cookies and milk and told Grandma about their camping adventure. Grandma listened and smiled. She was happy to see them having fun.
+Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play with blocks. They make big stacks of blocks and knock them down. One day, they find a new game. They lie on the floor and pretend to be blocks. They try to make a stack of themselves.
+
+"Sam, you be the bottom block," Ben says. "I will be the top block."
+
+"OK," Sam says. He lies on the floor and makes his body flat. Ben lies on top of him and makes his body flat too. They are a stack of two blocks.
+
+"Look, we are a stack!" Ben says. He is happy.
+
+"Can we make a bigger stack?" Sam asks. He is curious.
+
+"Maybe," Ben says. He looks around. He sees their sister, Lily. She is reading a book on the couch. "Lily, come and play with us!" Ben calls. "We are blocks!"
+
+Lily looks at them. She sees Sam and Ben lying on the floor. She thinks they are silly. She shakes her head. "No, thank you," she says. "I like my book."
+
+"Please, Lily, please!" Ben begs. "We need one more block. You can be the middle block."
+
+Lily sighs. She puts down her book. She walks over to them. She is nervous. She does not like to lie on the floor. She does not like to be a block. But she loves her brothers. She wants to make them happy.
+
+"OK, fine," she says. "But only for a little bit."
+
+She lies on top of Sam and under Ben. She makes her body flat. She is a block. They are a stack of three blocks.
+
+"Yay, we did it!" Ben says. He is proud.
+
+"Wow, we are a big stack!" Sam says. He is amazed.
+
+Lily says nothing. She is uncomfortable. She feels Sam's breath on her face. She feels Ben's weight on her back. She hopes they will stop soon.
+
+They are a stack of blocks. They are happy. Except for Lily. She is not happy. She is a nervous block.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play catch with a ball. They go to the park with their moms. The park has a big field and a pond.
+
+Tom throws the ball to Sam. Sam tries to catch it, but he misses. The ball rolls into the pond. "Oh no!" Sam says. "Our ball is gone!"
+
+Tom and Sam run to the pond. They see the ball floating on the water. It is too far to reach. They look around. They see a man with a fishing rod. He has a line and a hook. He is trying to catch fish.
+
+"Excuse me, sir," Tom says. "Can you help us? Our ball is in the pond. Can you catch it with your line?"
+
+The man looks at Tom and Sam. He smiles. He says, "Sure, I can try. But you have to be quiet. Fish don't like noise."
+
+The man reels in his line. He takes off the hook. He ties the line to a stick. He throws the stick to the ball. He pulls the line. The ball comes closer and closer. Tom and Sam clap their hands.
+
+"Thank you, sir!" they say. "You are very kind."
+
+The man gives them the ball. He says, "You're welcome, boys. Have fun. But be careful. Don't throw your ball into the pond again."
+
+Tom and Sam nod. They say, "We will. Bye, sir!"
+
+They run back to the field. They play catch with their ball. They are happy. Their moms are happy too. They watch them play. They have open smiles. They are proud of their boys.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they plan to have a tea party. They find a big plate and some cups and spoons. They pretend to pour tea and eat cake.
+
+"Would you like some more tea, Ben?" Anna asks.
+
+"Yes, please, Anna. You are a good host," Ben says.
+
+They are having fun. But then, Anna's big brother Tom comes in. He sees them playing with the plate and the cups. He laughs at them.
+
+"What are you doing, you silly kids? That's not a real tea party. That's a baby game. You are too old for that," Tom says.
+
+He takes the plate and the cups away from them. He throws them on the floor. They break into pieces. Anna and Ben are sad and angry. They are also embarrassed. They feel like crying.
+
+"Tom, you are mean and rude. You ruined our tea party. You owe us a new plate and cups," Anna says.
+
+"Go away, you crybabies. I don't care about your stupid plate and cups. You should play with something else," Tom says.
+
+He walks away. Anna and Ben look at each other. They hug each other. They decide to plan another tea party. But this time, they will lock the door. They will not let Tom in. They will have fun without him. They are still friends.
+Anna likes to help her mom clean the house. She has a small mop that she uses to follow her mom around. She thinks her mom is amazing. She can make everything shiny and nice.
+
+One day, Anna and her mom are mopping the kitchen floor. Anna sees a big spider on the wall. She is scared of spiders. She drops her mop and runs to her mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, there is a spider!" she cries.
+
+Her mom looks at the wall and sees the spider. She is not scared of spiders. She smiles and picks up Anna.
+
+"Don't worry, Anna. The spider is not going to hurt you. He is just looking for a home. Let's help him find one outside," she says.
+
+She puts Anna down and gets a cup and a paper. She gently catches the spider in the cup and covers it with the paper. She takes Anna and the cup outside. She finds a nice spot in the garden and lets the spider go.
+
+"Bye, spider. Have a good day," she says.
+
+Anna watches the spider crawl away. She feels better. She hugs her mom.
+
+"Thank you, mom. You are amazing. Can we go back and finish mopping?" she asks.
+
+Her mom laughs and hugs her back.
+
+"Of course, Anna. You are amazing too. Let's go back and make the kitchen shiny and nice," she says.
+
+They go back inside and pick up their mops. They follow each other and mop the floor. They are happy and proud. They like to help each other. They are an amazing team.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the living room. They saw a big vase on the table. It was blue and shiny. Lily liked the vase. She wanted to touch it.
+
+"Look, Ben, a vase!" Lily said. "It is pretty. Can I hold it?"
+
+Ben shook his head. He was intelligent. He knew the vase was not a toy. He knew Mom would be angry if they broke it.
+
+"No, Lily, no!" Ben said. "The vase is not for us. It is for Mom. It is breakable. If you hold it, it might fall and end. Then Mom will be sad. And we will be in trouble."
+
+Lily did not listen. She was curious. She reached for the vase. She wanted to feel it. She did not see the cat on the sofa. The cat was sleepy. He did not like noise. He did not like Lily and Ben.
+
+The cat jumped from the sofa. He landed on the table. He pushed the vase with his paw. The vase fell from the table. It hit the floor. It broke into many pieces. It ended.
+
+Lily and Ben gasped. They heard Mom coming. They were scared. They hid behind the couch.
+
+"What was that?" Mom said. She saw the vase on the floor. She saw the cat on the table. She was not happy. She was very angry.
+
+"Who did this?" Mom said. "Who broke my vase? It was a gift from Grandma. It was special. It was not to end."
+
+Lily and Ben did not answer. They were sorry. They wished they had listened to Ben. He was intelligent. He was right. The vase was not for them. It was for Mom. It was not to end.
+Lily liked to play in the attic. She had many toys there, and books, and a big chest. Sometimes she pretended she was a pirate, or a princess, or a fairy. She had fun in the attic.
+
+One day, she heard a loud noise in the attic. It sounded like a growl, or a roar, or a scream. She was scared. She ran to the door and tried to open it, but it was locked. She banged on the door and shouted for help, but no one heard her. She was trapped in the attic.
+
+She looked around and saw a big shadow in the corner. It moved and made the noise again. It was a terrible monster, with big teeth and claws and eyes. It was angry and hungry. It wanted to eat Lily. It started to come closer and closer to her. She cried and screamed and wished she was not in the attic. She wished she was with her mom and dad and brother. She wished the monster would go away.
+
+But then, she saw something shiny on the floor. It was her flashlight. She had left it there the last time she played. She had an idea. She grabbed the flashlight and turned it on. She pointed it at the monster and flashed it in its eyes. The monster stopped and blinked. It was afraid of the light. It backed away and hid in the corner. It made a whimper, not a roar.
+
+Lily felt brave. She flashed the light again and again, and moved towards the door. The monster did not follow her. It stayed in the dark. She reached the door and turned the knob. It opened. She ran out of the attic and down the stairs. She found her mom and dad and brother and hugged them. She told them about the monster and the flashlight. They were proud of her and glad she was safe. They said they would check the attic and fix the lock. They said they loved her.
+
+Lily was happy. She still liked to play in the attic, but she always took her flashlight with her. She never saw the monster again. She thought it was gone, or maybe it was not a monster at all. Maybe it was just a big rat, or a bird, or a toy. She did not care. She had fun in the attic.
+Sara likes to design things. She has many crayons and papers. She draws houses, flowers, animals and people. She likes to make them look nice and colorful.
+
+One day, Sara is not feeling well. She has a hot head and a sore throat. Mommy takes a thermometer and puts it in Sara's mouth. The thermometer has a red line that goes up and down. Mommy says Sara has a fever and needs to rest.
+
+Sara is sad. She wants to design more things. She does not like to lie in bed. Mommy gives her a hug and a kiss. She says Sara can design something light and easy. She gives Sara a flashlight and some stickers.
+
+Sara is happy. She turns on the flashlight and makes it shine on the wall. She puts stickers on the flashlight to make it look like a star, a moon, a heart and a smiley face. She designs her own light show. She feels a little better. She says thank you to Mommy. Mommy says she is proud of Sara. She says Sara is a good designer.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toy cars and trucks. They had a big box of them in their room. One day, it rained a lot and the water came into their house. It was a flood! The water was very high and wet everything.
+
+Ben and Lily were scared and ran to their mom and dad. They hugged them and said, "Don't worry, we are safe. We will go to the roof and wait for help." They took some food and water and their toy cars and trucks and climbed to the roof. They saw the water all around their house and the street. It looked like a big lake.
+
+They waited for a long time and then they heard a loud noise. It was a helicopter! It came to their roof and a man came out. He said, "Hello, I am here to deliver you to a safe place. Come with me." He helped them and their mom and dad get into the helicopter. They saw their toy cars and trucks and said, "Can we take them too?" The man said, "Yes, of course. They are your friends." He put them in a bag and gave it to them.
+
+They flew away from their house and the flood. They saw other houses and people and animals that were also wet and stuck. They felt sad for them and hoped they would be okay. They also saw some dry land and trees and flowers that were still green and pretty. They felt happy to see them and hoped they would go there soon.
+
+The man took them to a big building that was dry and warm. He said, "This is a shelter. You can stay here until the flood goes away. There are other people and toys and books and games here. You can have fun and make new friends." He gave them a hug and said, "You are very brave and smart. I am glad I could deliver you to a safe place." Ben and Lily said, "Thank you, you are very kind and strong. We are glad you came to help us." They smiled and waved goodbye to the man and the helicopter. They went inside the shelter and saw their mom and dad and their toy cars and trucks. They felt safe and happy. They said, "We love you, mom and dad. We love our toy cars and trucks. We love our new friends. We hope the flood goes away soon." They hugged them and played with them and had a good time. The end.
+Lily liked to rock on her horse. She rocked back and forth, back and forth, and made a happy sound. She pretended she was a princess and her horse was her friend.
+
+One Tuesday, she saw a boy in the park. He had a ball and a hat. He looked at her and smiled. He said, "Hi, I'm Sam. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lily stopped rocking and said, "Yes, I do. What is your name?"
+
+Sam threw his ball to her and said, "I'm Sam. You have a nice horse. Can I try it?"
+
+Lily nodded and got off her horse. She caught the ball and said, "I'm Lily. Thank you. You have a charming hat. Can I try it?"
+
+Sam nodded and took off his hat. He put it on her head and said, "You're welcome. You look pretty. You can try my horse."
+
+They swapped their toys and played together. They rocked and threw and laughed. They became good friends. They liked Tuesdays.
+Anna likes to help her mom in the kitchen. She washes the dishes and puts them on the rack. She is very careful with the knife. She knows it is sharp and can hurt her. She does not touch the blade, only the handle.
+
+One day, Anna is drying the dishes with a towel. She sees the knife on the rack. She wants to dry it too. She forgets to be careful. She grabs the knife by the blade. Ouch! The knife cuts her finger. She drops the knife and cries.
+
+Mom hears Anna cry and runs to the kitchen. She sees the blood on Anna's finger and the knife on the floor. She is angry and scared. She picks up Anna and hugs her. She says, "Anna, why did you touch the knife? You know it is dangerous. You could have hurt yourself badly. You have to be more careful."
+
+Anna feels sorry and sad. She says, "I'm sorry, Mom. I wanted to help you. I forgot to be careful. It hurts a lot." Mom says, "It's okay, Anna. I know you wanted to help. But you have to listen to me and follow the rules. The knife is not a toy. It is a tool. You can only use it when I am with you and show you how. Do you understand?" Anna nods and says, "Yes, Mom. I understand. I love you." Mom says, "I love you too, Anna. Let me clean your finger and put a band-aid on it. Then we can finish the dishes together." Anna smiles and says, "Okay, Mom. Thank you."
+Anna and Ben are playing with blocks. They want to fill a big box with blocks. They take turns to put blocks in the box. Anna is careful and neat. Ben is clumsy and messy.
+
+"Look, Anna, I have a red block!" Ben says. He throws the block in the box. The block hits another block and makes a loud noise.
+
+"Ben, don't do that!" Anna says. "You will make the blocks fall out. You have to put them in gently."
+
+"But that is no fun!" Ben says. He picks up a blue block and throws it in the box. The block bounces off the box and hits Anna's head.
+
+"Ow!" Anna says. She rubs her head and frowns. "Ben, you are too clumsy! You hurt me!"
+
+"I'm sorry, Anna," Ben says. He looks sad. "I didn't mean to hurt you. I just wanted to fill the box fast."
+
+Anna sighs. She knows Ben is not a bad boy. He is just a silly boy. She smiles and gives him a hug.
+
+"It's okay, Ben," she says. "But let's fill the box in a different way. Let's make a tower with the blocks. Then we can put the tower in the box. That will be fun and easy."
+
+"Okay, Anna," Ben says. He smiles and nods. "Let's do that. You are a smart girl."
+
+They start to make a tower with the blocks. They are careful and neat. They have fun and fill the box. They are happy.
+Lily liked to tease her big brother Tom. She would hide his toys, make funny faces at him, and call him silly names. Tom did not like it when Lily teased him. He would get angry and chase her around the house.
+
+One day, Lily saw Tom's cane leaning on the wall. Tom needed the cane to help him walk, because his leg was hurt. Lily thought it would be fun to tease Tom with his cane. She grabbed the cane and ran away with it.
+
+"Give me back my cane, Lily!" Tom shouted. He tried to catch her, but he was slow without his cane. Lily laughed and ran faster. She ran into the garden, where Grandma was planting flowers.
+
+"Look, Grandma, I have Tom's cane!" Lily said. She waved the cane in the air. Grandma frowned and shook her head.
+
+"That's not nice, Lily. You should not tease Tom with his cane. He needs it to walk. How would you feel if someone took your purple bike and ran away with it?" Grandma asked.
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She liked her purple bike very much. She would be sad and angry if someone took it. She realized that she was being mean to Tom. She felt sorry for him.
+
+"I'm sorry, Grandma. You're right. I should not tease Tom with his cane. I will give it back to him and say sorry." Lily said. She ran back to the house, where Tom was sitting on the couch. She gave him his cane and hugged him.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom. I was wrong to tease you with your cane. I love you, big brother." Lily said.
+
+Tom smiled and hugged her back.
+
+"I love you too, Lily. Thank you for giving me back my cane. And I'm sorry for getting angry at you. You're my little sister, and I want to play with you." Tom said.
+
+Lily and Tom were happy again. They decided to play a nice game together, and not tease each other anymore. Grandma watched them and smiled. She was proud of them.
+Ben and Lily were eager to play outside. They put on their hats and shoes and ran to the garden. There they saw a big round ball. It was red and shiny and bounced high.
+
+"Let's hop with the ball!" Ben said. He grabbed the ball and threw it up. He jumped to catch it and laughed.
+
+"Me too!" Lily said. She waited for her turn and then threw the ball up. She hopped to catch it and smiled.
+
+They took turns hopping with the ball. They had fun and made noises. They hopped high and low, fast and slow, left and right.
+
+But then the ball bounced too far. It went over the fence and into the street. Ben and Lily stopped hopping. They looked at the ball and felt sad.
+
+"Oh no! The ball is gone!" Ben said.
+
+"What can we do?" Lily said.
+
+They ran to the fence and looked for the ball. But they could not see it. There were cars and bikes and people in the street. The ball was lost.
+
+They wanted to hop with the ball again. But they knew they could not go to the street. It was dangerous and scary. They needed help.
+
+They ran back to the house and called their mom. They told her what happened. They asked her to get the ball back.
+
+Mom listened and nodded. She put on her coat and took her keys. She told them to wait inside and be good. She said she would try to find the ball.
+
+Ben and Lily hoped mom would find the ball. They waited inside and played with their toys. They missed the ball and the hopping. They wished mom would come back soon.
+Lily loved her new sweater. It was pink and soft and had a big heart on the front. She put it on and ran to show her mom.
+
+"Look, Mommy, look!" she said, jumping up and down. "Do you like my sweater?"
+
+Mommy smiled and hugged Lily. "I love your sweater, sweetie. It's brilliant. You look so pretty and cozy."
+
+Lily felt happy and warm. She wanted to share her sweater with someone else. She thought of her best friend, Ben. He lived next door and liked to play with her.
+
+She ran to the door and put on her shoes and coat. "Mommy, can I go see Ben?" she asked.
+
+"Sure, honey. But be careful and don't stay too long. It's cold outside."
+
+Lily nodded and opened the door. She saw Ben in his yard, making a snowman. He wore a blue hat and gloves, but no sweater.
+
+"Hi, Ben!" Lily called. "Do you want to see my sweater?"
+
+Ben looked up and smiled. "Hi, Lily! Sure, let me see."
+
+Lily ran over to him and showed him her sweater. "It's pink and soft and has a big heart. Mommy says it's brilliant."
+
+Ben touched the sweater and nodded. "It's very nice, Lily. I like it."
+
+Lily saw that Ben was shivering. She felt sorry for him. She had an idea.
+
+"Ben, are you cold?" she asked.
+
+"A little bit," Ben said.
+
+Lily took off her sweater and gave it to Ben. "Here, you can wear my sweater. It will keep you warm."
+
+Ben looked surprised and happy. He put on the sweater and felt warmer. It was a bit big for him, but he didn't mind.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You're very kind. I like your sweater."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged Ben. She felt a bit cold, but she didn't mind. She had a friend.
+
+"You're welcome, Ben. You're my friend. I like you."
+
+They squeezed each other and laughed. Then they went back to making the snowman. They had fun. They shared the sweater. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to explore the woods near their home. One day, they saw a new path that they had never followed before. They decided to see where it led.
+
+"Maybe we will find something cool," Tom said.
+
+"Or something scary," Lily said.
+
+They walked for a long time until they came to a clearing. In the middle of the clearing, there was a small cabin made of wood. It looked old and dusty, but also cozy and inviting.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Tom said. "Let's go inside and see what's there."
+
+"Are you sure?" Lily said. "What if someone lives there?"
+
+Tom shrugged. "I don't think so. It looks empty. Come on, don't be afraid."
+
+They walked up to the cabin and opened the door. Inside, they saw a big fireplace, a table, some chairs, and a shelf full of books. They also saw some pictures on the wall. They looked closer and recognized some of the faces.
+
+"Hey, I know these people!" Tom said. "They are famous writers. They write stories for children. I have some of their books at home."
+
+"Really?" Lily said. "How do you know?"
+
+Tom pointed to a sign above the fireplace. It said: "Welcome to the Cabin of Stories. This is where we come to write and share our ideas. Feel free to look around and discover the magic of words. Signed, your friends, Jack, Jill, Sam, and Sue."
+
+Tom and Lily were amazed. They had discovered the cabin of their favorite writers. They felt like they had entered a fairy tale. They decided to sit down and read some of the books on the shelf. They hoped that maybe, one day, they could write their own stories too.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with toys and eat snacks. One day, they find a can of tuna in the kitchen. Tom says, "Let's open it and see what's inside." Jen says, "OK, but be careful. It might be yucky."
+
+Tom uses a can opener to open the can. He sees a lot of fish inside. He says, "Wow, look at all the fish. They look tasty." Jen says, "I don't like fish. They smell bad." Tom says, "Don't be silly. Fish are good for you. Here, try some." He picks up a piece of tuna and puts it in Jen's mouth.
+
+Jen spits out the tuna. She says, "Blech! That's gross. Why did you do that?" Tom laughs. He says, "I was joking. I wanted to see your face. It was funny." Jen feels angry. She says, "That's not a joke. That's mean. You hurt my feelings. I don't want to play with you anymore." She runs away, crying.
+
+Tom feels troubled. He says, "I'm sorry, Jen. I didn't mean to make you cry. I thought you would laugh too. Please come back. I want to be your friend." He follows Jen and tries to hug her.
+
+Jen pushes him away. She says, "No, go away. You're not my friend. You're a bully. You don't care about me. You only care about yourself." She runs to her room and slams the door.
+
+Tom sits on the floor. He says, "I'm sorry, Jen. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." He wishes he could take back his joke. He wonders if Jen will ever forgive him. He feels sad and lonely. He wishes he had never opened the can of tuna.
+Lily liked to whistle. She whistled all the time. She whistled when she woke up, when she played, when she ate, and when she went to bed. She whistled so much that her mom and dad got tired of it. They told her to stop whistling so loud and so often. But Lily did not listen. She thought whistling was fun and normal.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big bowl of cherries on the table. She loved cherries. They were red and sweet and juicy. She wanted to eat them all. She did not ask her mom and dad if she could have some. She just took the bowl and ran to her room. She whistled as she ate the cherries. She whistled so loud that she did not hear her mom and dad calling her name.
+
+But Lily did not know that some of the cherries had pits inside. Pits are hard and small and can hurt you if you swallow them. Lily did not look at the cherries before she ate them. She just put them in her mouth and whistled. She did not feel the pits until it was too late. One of the pits got stuck in her throat. She could not breathe. She could not whistle. She could not call for help. She felt scared and sorry.
+
+Her mom and dad found her on the floor. They tried to help her. They called the doctor. But it was too late. Lily was gone. They cried and cried. They wished they had told her to be careful with the cherries. They wished they had listened to her whistling. They wished they had hugged her and told her they loved her.
+
+The moral of the story is: You should always listen to your parents. They know what is good and bad for you. You should also be careful with what you eat. You should not whistle when you eat. You should not eat too much or too fast. You should enjoy the things you have, but not be greedy or rude. You should be happy and normal, but not too loud or too often. You should love and respect yourself and others. You never know when it might be too late.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big puddle. They want to jump in it.
+
+"Let's jump in the puddle!" Lily says.
+
+"OK!" Ben says.
+
+They run to the puddle and jump in it. They splash and laugh. They are wet and happy.
+
+But then, they see a duck. The duck is hungry. It wants to eat their bread. They have bread for lunch.
+
+"Go away, duck!" Lily says.
+
+"No, duck, this is our bread!" Ben says.
+
+But the duck does not listen. It quacks and pecks at their bread. It tries to take it from them.
+
+"Stop, duck, stop!" Lily and Ben say.
+
+They are scared and angry. They want to keep their bread.
+
+But then, they see a man. The man has a bag. He has more bread in his bag. He sees the duck and the children.
+
+"Hello, duck, hello, children!" the man says.
+
+He takes some bread from his bag and throws it to the duck. The duck is happy. It eats the bread and leaves Lily and Ben alone.
+
+"Thank you, man, thank you!" Lily and Ben say.
+
+They are relieved and grateful. They have their bread back.
+
+"You're welcome, children, you're welcome!" the man says.
+
+He smiles and gives them more bread. He is kind and generous.
+
+"You are lucky, children, you are lucky!" the man says.
+
+He walks away with his bag.
+
+Lily and Ben look at each other. They nod and smile.
+
+They are lucky, they are lucky! They have more bread and a big puddle. They eat some bread and jump in the puddle again. They splash and laugh. They are wet and happy.
+Tommy liked to play with his toy cars in his room. He had many cars of different colors and sizes. He made them zoom and crash on the floor. He was happy.
+
+But Tommy also had a pet hamster named Fluffy. Fluffy lived in a cage on Tommy's desk. Fluffy liked to sleep during the day and run on his wheel at night. He was quiet and cute.
+
+One day, Tommy was playing with his cars and he saw Fluffy sleeping in his cage. He wanted to play with Fluffy too. He opened the cage and took Fluffy out. He held him in his hand and said, "Hi, Fluffy. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+But Fluffy did not want to play. He was scared and angry. He did not like to be disturbed when he was sleeping. He bit Tommy's finger hard. Tommy screamed and dropped Fluffy on the floor. Fluffy ran away and hid under the bed.
+
+Tommy cried and ran to his mom. He showed her his finger and said, "Mommy, Fluffy bit me! He hurt me!" Mommy looked at his finger and said, "Oh, Tommy, you should not disturb Fluffy when he is sleeping. He needs his rest. You have to be gentle and careful with him. Where is he now?"
+
+Tommy said, "I don't know. He ran away. I'm sorry, Mommy. I'm sorry, Fluffy." Mommy said, "It's okay, Tommy. We will find him. Come on, let's go to your room and look for him."
+
+But when they went to Tommy's room, they saw something terrible. The window was open and Fluffy was gone. He had escaped from the room and ran outside. He was lost and alone. He could not find his way back. He was in danger.
+
+Tommy and Mommy were very sad. They looked for Fluffy everywhere, but they could not find him. They put up posters and asked people, but no one had seen him. They hoped that Fluffy was safe and happy, but they knew that he was probably not.
+
+Tommy learned a hard lesson. He should not disturb his pet when he was sleeping. He should respect his cage and his space. He should love him and care for him. He missed Fluffy very much. He was very sorry.
+Sam and Lily were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat, a scarf and a carrot nose. Sam found a glove on the ground and put it on the snowman's hand.
+
+"Look, our snowman has a glove!" Sam said.
+
+Lily was envious. She wanted a glove too. She looked around and saw a sack near a tree. She ran to the sack and opened it. Inside, there were many shiny things.
+
+"Wow, look at these!" Lily said. She took out a necklace, a ring and a bracelet. She put them on and felt very happy.
+
+Sam saw Lily with the shiny things. He was curious. He left the snowman and went to the sack. He looked inside and saw more shiny things.
+
+"Where did you get these?" Sam asked.
+
+"I found them in the sack. They are mine!" Lily said.
+
+"No, they are not. They belong to someone else. You should not take them. It is wrong." Sam said.
+
+"I don't care. I like them. They are pretty. Go away!" Lily said.
+
+Sam was angry. He tried to take the shiny things from Lily. Lily screamed and pushed him. They fought and pulled and scratched. The shiny things fell on the snow.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud voice.
+
+"Hey, you kids! What are you doing with my sack?" The voice said.
+
+They looked up and saw a big man with a beard and a coat. He was holding a stick. He looked very angry.
+
+He was the owner of the sack. He had left it there while he went to get some wood. He had stolen the shiny things from a house. He was a bad man.
+
+He ran to the sack and grabbed it. He saw the shiny things on the snow. He saw Sam and Lily.
+
+"You little thieves! You took my stuff! I'll teach you a lesson!" He said.

+He raised his stick and hit Sam and Lily. They cried and begged for mercy. But he did not stop. He hit them again and again. He hurt them very much.
+
+The snowman watched with his glove. He could not help. He felt very sad.

+
+Anna nods and smiles. She takes the spoon and stirs the ingredients. She is careful not to spill or make a mess. She likes how the dough feels soft and sticky. She hums a song as she mixes.
+
+Mom watches her and smiles too. She takes a cookie cutter and makes shapes on a baking sheet. She shows Anna how to press the dough and make stars, hearts and circles. "These will be our cookies," Mom says. "We will put them in the oven and wait for them to bake."

That is my sock! Give it back!" They run to the couch and try to get the sock from Max. But Max thinks it is a game. He runs away with the sock.
+
+Lily and Ben chase Max around the house. They say, "Stop, stop, stop!" But Max does not stop. He runs faster and faster. He makes the sock more smelly. Mom and Dad laugh and say, "What a silly dog! What a silly game!"

+
+She stopped chasing Tom and said, "Please, Tom, please give me back Pingo. He is my best friend. I will share my other toys with you. Please, Tom, please."
+
+Tom heard Sara and looked at her. He saw that she was very sad and sincere. He felt sorry for her. He thought, maybe I was too mean to Sara. She is my little sister. I should be nice to her.
+
+He stopped running and said, "Okay, Sara, okay. I will give you back Pingo. I surrender. I was just joking. I don't really want Pingo. He is yours."
+
+He walked to Sara and handed her Pingo. Sara smiled and hugged Pingo. She said, "Thank you, Tom, thank you. You are a good brother. I love you."

+
+"What is it, Tom?" Anna asks.
+
+"It's a surprise for you. Hurry, come and see!" Tom says.
+
+Anna smiles and runs down the stairs. She thinks Tom has a nice gift for her. Maybe it is a new book, or a toy, or a puzzle.
+
+She reaches the last stair and opens the box. She gasps. Inside the box, there is a big, hairy spider. It moves its legs and eyes.
+
+"Surprise!" Tom laughs. "Do you like your new pet?"
+
+Anna screams and drops the box. She is scared of spiders. She runs back up the stairs and slams the door. She cries and hugs her book.
+
+Tom feels bad. He did not mean to make Anna cry. He just wanted to play a joke. He knows Anna is very intelligent and brave, but he also knows she hates spiders.
+
+He picks up the box and the spider. He takes them outside and lets the spider go. He hopes it will find a nice home.
+
+He goes back inside and knocks on Anna's door.
+
+"Anna, I'm sorry. I was silly. I don't have a real gift for you, but I have a hug. Can I come in?"

+
+But the witch smiled. She said, "Don't be afraid. I am a good witch. I like children. You are welcome in my house."
+
+Lily and Tom looked at each other. They did not know what to do. They liked candy, but they did not trust the witch.
+
+The witch saw their faces. She said, "I understand. You don't know me. How about this? I will give you some candy now, and you can come back later if you want. Maybe we can be friends."
+
+Lily and Tom thought about it. They decided to take the candy and say thank you. They said, "Maybe we will come back later. Goodbye, witch."
+
+The witch waved at them. She said, "Goodbye, children. Have a nice day. I hope to see you again."
+
+Lily and Tom ran back to the park. They ate their candy. They wondered if the witch was really good or not. They decided to ask their mom and dad.

+
+"Let's try again," Tom said. "We can succeed if we work together."
+
+They nodded. They picked up the blocks. They looked for the best blocks. They made a new plan. They helped each other.

+Sara and Ben like to play with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. They can make towers, houses, cars and animals with their blocks. They have a big box to keep their blocks in when they are done playing.
+
+One day, Sara and Ben want to make a big row of blocks. They take out all their blocks from the box and start to put them in a line on the floor. They try to make the row as long and as organized as they can. They put the same colors and shapes together. They are very proud of their row.
+
+But then, their mom comes in and sees the mess. She is not happy. She tells Sara and Ben to clean up their blocks and put them back in the box. She says they have to do it now, because it is time for lunch. Sara and Ben do not want to stop playing. They want to keep their row of blocks. They say no to their mom.
+
+Their mom gets angry. She says they have to listen to her and do what she says. She says they are being naughty and rude. She says they will not get any lunch if they do not clean up their blocks. She says she will count to three and then she will take away their blocks.
+
+Sara and Ben still do not listen. They think their mom is being mean and unfair. They hug their row of blocks and say they will not let go. They say they love their row of blocks more than anything. They say they will remain with their row of blocks forever.
+
+Their mom counts to three. She sees that Sara and Ben are still holding their row of blocks. She is very angry. She grabs their row of blocks and throws it in the trash. She says they have lost their blocks for good. She says they have to go to their room and stay there until they are sorry. She says they will not get any lunch or any dessert.
+
+Sara and Ben cry. They are very sad and very hungry. They wish they had listened to their mom and cleaned up their blocks. They wish they had not been so stubborn and selfish.

They have made a big mistake. They have a bad ending.
+Tom and Lily were playing pirates in the garden. They had a big box that they pretended was their treasure. They filled it with shiny things and toys. They wanted to keep it safe from other pirates.
+
+"Let's lock our treasure, Lily," Tom said. "We have a key and a lock. No one can take it from us."
+
+"OK, Tom," Lily said. "But where will we hide the key?"
+
+Tom thought for a moment. He saw a hole in the ground under a tree. He ran to the hole and put the key inside. He covered it with dirt and leaves.
+
+"There, Lily," he said. "Now our key is hidden. Come on, let's go and have some lunch."
+
+Tom and Lily left their treasure box in the garden and went inside the house. They did not see the big dog that was watching them from behind the fence. The dog smelled the treasure box and was curious. He jumped over the fence and ran to the box. He tried to open it with his teeth, but it was locked. He got angry and started to bite and scratch the box. He made a big hole in the box and took out the shiny things and toys. He played with them and tore them apart. He made a big mess in the garden.
+
+Tom and Lily came back from lunch and saw the dog and the broken box. They were very sad and angry. They shouted at the dog and tried to chase him away, but he was faster than them. He ran away with some of the shiny things and toys in his mouth.
+
+"Tom, our treasure is gone!" Lily cried. "The dog took it!"
+
+"And our key is gone too!" Tom said. "We can't lock our box anymore!"
+
+They looked at the hole under the tree, but it was empty. The dog had dug up the key and taken it with him. Tom and Lily had no treasure, no key, and no lock. They had nothing. They sat on the ground and cried. They wished they had not played pirates.

+
+Mom was in the kitchen, making a cake for Dad's birthday. She was worried because she did not have enough candles for the cake. She looked in the drawers and the cupboards, but she could not find any more candles. She did not know what to do.
+
+She went to the living room and asked Ben and Lily, "Do you have any candles for Dad's cake? I need four more candles, but I can't find any."
+
+Ben and Lily looked at each other. They remembered that they had used some candles to make rockets with their tape and paper. They had put them in their toy box, under their blocks and animals. They felt bad for using Mom's candles.
+
+They ran to their toy box and dug out the candles. They brought them to Mom and said, "We're sorry, Mom. We used your candles to make rockets. We didn't know you needed them for Dad's cake. Here they are."

+They open the box and see many books. They are novels. They have pictures and words. Tom and Anna love novels. They pick one and sit on the grass.
+
+"Look at this!" Tom says. He shows Anna a picture of a dragon. "It is scary!"
+
+Anna nods. She shows Tom a picture of a princess. "She is pretty!"
+
+They read the novel together. They forget about the time. They are happy.
+
+Soon, the sun sets. It is dark and cold. Tom and Anna are hungry and sleepy. They are not happy.
+
+"Where are our moms and dads?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know," Anna says. "I miss them."

+
+They see their moms and dads running to them. They are relieved.

+
+Their moms and dads are not angry. They are glad. They hug them and kiss them.
+
+"We are sorry too," they say. "We have a surprise for you. We bought you new novels. They are at home. Do you want to see them?"

+
+Tom finds a long rope. He has an idea. He says, "Anna, let's tie the rope to the box. Then we can pull it and make it move." Anna nods. She likes the idea. They tie the rope to the front of the box. They take turns pulling and riding.
+
+Sam sees them from his window. He is envious. He wants to play with them. He wants to ride in the box. He runs outside. He says, "Hey, can I play with you?" Tom and Anna look at him. They are not sure. They do not know Sam very well.
+
+Sam sees a fork on the ground. He picks it up. He says, "Look, I have a fork. It is shiny and sharp. I can use it to make holes in your box. Then it will not be a car anymore. It will be a cheese." He laughs. He thinks he is funny.
+
+Tom and Anna are angry. They do not like Sam. They do not like his fork. They do not want him to ruin their box. They say, "No, you cannot play with us. Go away. Leave our box alone." They pull the rope and move the box away from Sam. Sam is sad. He drops the fork. He wishes he had been nice.
+Sara liked to play dress-up with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had long hair and a pink dress. Sara liked to make Lily look pretty with ribbons and hats and shoes.
+
+One day, Sara's friend Ben came over to play. Ben liked to play with cars and robots. He did not like dolls. He saw Sara's dolls and said, "Dolls are silly. They are for babies. Cars and robots are cool. They are for big kids."
+
+Sara felt angry. She said, "Dolls are not silly. They are for fashion. Fashion is fun. You can make dolls look different and popular. Cars and robots are boring. They are all the same and noisy."
+
+Ben and Sara started to argue. They both wanted to play with their own toys. They did not want to share. They did not want to try something new.
+
+Sara's mom heard them and came to the room. She said, "What is going on here? Why are you fighting? You are friends. You should play nicely together."
+
+Ben and Sara looked at Sara's mom. They felt sorry. They did not want to make her sad. They decided to surrender. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We were being mean. We will play nicely together."
+
+Sara's mom smiled. She said, "That's good. Why don't you take turns? You can play with dolls for a while, and then you can play with cars and robots. Maybe you will find something new that you both like."
+
+Ben and Sara agreed. They took turns playing with each other's toys. They found out that dolls and cars and robots could be fun in different ways. They learned to respect each other's choices. They had a good time. They became better friends.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the yard with their dog Spot. They liked to dig holes and find worms and rocks. Spot liked to chase the birds and roll in the mud. They were having a lot of fun, but they were also getting very filthy.
+
+"Look, Tom, I found a shiny rock!" Lily said, holding up a pebble.
+
+"Wow, that's pretty!" Tom said. "Can I see?"
+
+Lily nodded and gave him the rock. Tom looked at it closely and then pointed at something on it. "What's that?" he asked.
+
+Lily looked where he pointed and saw a small, shiny thing. It looked like a ring. "I don't know," she said. "Maybe it's a treasure!"
+
+They heard a voice calling them from the house. It was their aunt, who was visiting them for the weekend. "Tom! Lily! Come inside, it's time for lunch!" she shouted.
+
+Tom and Lily ran to the house, holding the rock and the ring. They forgot to wipe their feet and hands. They were so excited to show their aunt their treasure.
+
+Their aunt opened the door and saw them. She gasped and put her hands on her hips. "What have you two been doing?" she asked. "You're filthy!"
+
+Tom and Lily smiled and held up the rock and the ring. "Look, auntie, we found a treasure!" they said.
+
+Their aunt looked at the rock and the ring. She recognized the ring. It was her ring. She had lost it in the yard a long time ago. She was so happy to see it again. She hugged Tom and Lily and thanked them. "You're right, you found a treasure!" she said. "But you still need a bath!"
+Tim and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Tim had a big truck that he liked to drive around. Lily had a doll that she liked to dress up. They shared their toys and played nicely.
+
+But then, they saw something unknown on the table. It was a small bottle with a red cap. It had a label that said "Shrink". They did not know what it meant. They were curious and wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Look, Lily, a new toy!" Tim said. He grabbed the bottle and opened the cap. He smelled it and made a face. "It smells bad. Maybe it is juice."
+
+"Let me try!" Lily said. She took the bottle from Tim and poured some on her doll. The doll started to shrink. It became smaller and smaller until it was as tiny as a bug. Lily gasped. "Oh no! What happened to my doll?"
+
+Tim was scared. He did not want his truck to shrink too. He threw the bottle away. But it landed in the bin. The bin started to shrink. It became smaller and smaller until it was as tiny as a coin. The bottle fell out of the bin and rolled under the sofa.
+
+Tim and Lily ran to their mom. They told her what they did. Mom was angry and worried. She went to the living room and looked for the bottle. She found it under the sofa. She read the label and sighed. It was not a toy. It was a science experiment that dad had brought home from work. He had forgotten to put it away.

+Mom explained to Tim and Lily that they should never touch unknown things. They could be dangerous or harmful. She said they were lucky that nothing bad happened to them. She said she would try to fix their toys and the bin. She said they should always ask before they play with something new.
+
+Tim and Lily felt sorry and ashamed. They hugged mom and said they were sorry. They learned their lesson. They never touched unknown things again. They played with their toys and had fun. They were happy.
+Lily and Tom are playing in the garden. They have a tea set and some plastic cups. Lily wants to serve tea to Tom and her teddy bear.
+
+"Tom, do you want some tea?" Lily asks.
+
+"Yes, please. I like tea," Tom says.
+
+Lily pours some water from a jug into a cup. She pretends it is hot tea. She adds some honey from a jar. She likes honey. It is sweet and sticky.
+
+"Here you go, Tom. And here is some for teddy," Lily says. She gives Tom and teddy a cup each.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. This tea is very good," Tom says. He sips his tea and smiles.
+
+Lily sips her tea too. She sees a bee flying near the jar of honey. The bee likes honey too. It wants to get some.
+
+"Look, Tom. A bee!" Lily says. She points to the bee.
+
+"Be careful, Lily. The bee might sting you," Tom says. He is afraid of bees.
+
+Lily is not afraid. She likes bees. They make honey. She wants to be friends with the bee.
+
+"Hello, bee. Do you want some honey?" Lily asks. She holds out the jar to the bee.
+
+The bee buzzes and flies closer. It smells the honey. It lands on the jar and crawls inside. It is happy.
+
+Lily and Tom watch the bee. They are curious.
+
+"Wow, the bee likes the honey a lot," Tom says.
+
+"Yes, it does. Maybe it will share some with us," Lily says.
+
+They wait for the bee to come out. They hope it will not sting them. They want to be nice to the bee.
+
+The bee comes out of the jar. It has some honey on its legs. It flies to Lily and Tom. It rubs its legs on their cups. It gives them some honey.
+
+"Thank you, bee. You are very kind," Lily says.
+
+"Thank you, bee. You are very clean," Tom says.
+
+The bee buzzes and flies away. It is happy too.
+
+Lily and Tom finish their tea. They lick their lips. The honey makes the tea taste better.
+
+They clean their cups and the jar. They put them back in the tea set.
+
+They hug their teddy bear. They are happy too.
+
+They have had a nice tea party with honey and a bee.
+Lily wanted to eat her soup by herself. She was a big girl now and she liked to be independent. She picked up her spoon and dipped it in the bowl. But the soup was hot and she spilled some on her bib. She felt sad and wanted to cry.
+
+"Oops, that's okay, Lily," her mom said. "You can try again. I'm proud of you for being independent. You are learning how to use your spoon. Do you want some help?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She wanted to do it by herself. She wiped her bib with her napkin and looked at her spoon. She remembered what her mom taught her. She had to blow on the soup to make it cooler. She had to hold the spoon steady and not fill it too much. She had to bring it to her mouth slowly and carefully.
+
+She tried again. She blew on the soup, held the spoon steady, and filled it a little bit. She brought it to her mouth and tasted the soup. It was yummy and warm. She smiled and swallowed. She did it!
+
+"Good job, Lily!" her mom said. "You are doing great. You are using your spoon very well. I'm so happy for you. Do you want some more soup?"
+
+Lily nodded. She wanted more soup. She liked being independent. She liked using her spoon. She liked her mom's encouragement. She felt proud and happy. She ate her soup with her spoon until the bowl was empty.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play together, but sometimes they fight. One day, they are playing with their toy cars in the living room. Lily wants to play with the red car, but Ben has it. Lily tries to grab it from him, but Ben holds it tight.
+
+"Give me the red car, Ben!" Lily says.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Ben says.
+
+They pull and tug on the car, until it breaks in half. Lily and Ben both cry. They are very sad and angry. Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom asks.
+
+"Lily broke my car!" Ben says.
+
+"Ben broke my car!" Lily says.
+
+Mom looks at the broken car and sighs. She picks up Lily and Ben and takes them to the bathroom. She says they need to bathe and calm down.
+
+"But I don't want to bathe!" Lily says.
+
+"Me neither!" Ben says.
+
+Mom says they have to bathe, because they are dirty and sweaty. She fills the tub with warm water and bubbles. She puts Lily and Ben in the tub and gives them each a rubber duck. She says they can play with the ducks, but they have to be nice to each other.
+
+Lily and Ben splash and giggle in the water. They forget about the broken car. They make the ducks talk to each other and pretend they are friends. Lily gives Ben the red duck and Ben gives Lily the yellow duck. They say they are sorry for fighting and hug each other.
+
+Mom smiles and says she is proud of them. She washes their hair and bodies with soap. She rinses them with water and wraps them in towels. She dries their hair and puts lotion on their skin. She says they are clean and cozy.
+
+Lily and Ben feel happy and sleepy. They say they love Mom and each other. They go to their bedroom and snuggle in their beds. Mom kisses their heads and says good night. She turns off the light and leaves the door open. Lily and Ben close their eyes and dream of ducks.

+
+One day, they went to the park with their mom. Lily found a bench and took out her crayons and a book. Lila saw a slide and ran to it. She slid down fast and laughed.
+
+"Come on, Lily, let's play!" Lila shouted.
+

+
+Lila slid down again and again. She saw a boy with a ball. She ran to him and asked, "Can I play with you?"
+
+The boy nodded and threw the ball to her. Lila caught it and threw it back. They had fun.
+
+Lily finished her drawing and opened her book. She saw a girl with a doll. She smiled and said, "Hello, what is your doll's name?"

+The girl looked at her and said, "Her name is Rosie. Do you want to play with her?"
+
+Lily nodded and took the doll. She hugged it and said, "She is very pretty."
+
+The girl smiled and said, "Thank you, you are very nice."
+
+They had fun.
+
+After a while, their mom called them. "It's time to go home, girls. You need to rest."
+
+Lily and Lila ran to their mom. They were tired but happy. They said goodbye to their new friends and got in the car.
+
+On the way home, they told their mom what they did at the park. They were very nosy and asked many questions.
+
+Their mom answered them and said, "You are very curious and smart, girls. But now you need to rest. You had a busy day."

+
+"Okay, Ben. I trust you. What is your secret?" Mia asks.
+
+Ben opens his backpack and shows Mia a blue bird. The bird is small and has shiny feathers. It chirps softly in Ben's hand.
+
+"Wow, Ben. Where did you find the blue bird?" Mia says.
+
+"I found it in the woods. It was hurt and scared. I helped it and gave it some water and seeds. Now it is my friend. I call it Bluey." Ben says.
+
+"That is a very nice secret, Ben. You are very kind to the blue bird. Can I touch it?" Mia says.
+
+"Yes, you can. But be gentle. Bluey is still shy." Ben says.
+
+Mia reaches out her hand and strokes the blue bird's head. The bird closes its eyes and snuggles in Ben's hand. Mia smiles and hugs Ben.
+
+"Thank you for sharing your secret with me, Ben. You are my best friend." Mia says.
+
+"You are welcome, Mia. You are my best friend too. And now you are Bluey's friend too." Ben says.
+Tim and Jen were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they found a shiny penny on the ground. They were very happy and decided to buy a balloon with it. They went to the store and picked a red balloon. The man at the store tied the balloon to a string and gave it to them.
+
+"Thank you, mister!" Tim and Jen said. They ran outside with their balloon. They wanted to see how high it could soar in the sky. They took turns holding the string and letting go a little bit. The balloon went up and up and up.
+
+"Wow, look at it go!" Tim said. "It's so big and pretty!"
+
+"Can I hold it now?" Jen asked. "Please, Tim, please!"
+
+"Okay, okay, here you go," Tim said. He gave the string to Jen. Jen smiled and held the string tightly. She let go a little bit, too. The balloon soared even higher.

+
+They ran after the balloon, but it was too fast and too far. They could not catch it. They felt very sad and angry. They cried and cried.
+
+They went back to the store and told the man what happened. The man felt sorry for them, but he could not give them another balloon. He said he only had one penny balloon left, and it was icy blue. He said they could have it if they wanted, but they had to pay another penny.
+
+Tim and Jen did not want the icy blue balloon. They wanted their red balloon back. They did not have another penny. They had nothing. They left the store and went home. They did not play outside anymore. They did not talk to each other anymore. They did not smile anymore. They had lost their balloon, their penny, and their fun.

+
+One day, he saw a new girl in his class. Her name was Lily. She had a big smile and a lot of ink pens. Tom wanted to talk to her, but he was shy. He watched her from his seat, and saw that she liked to draw too. She drew flowers and animals and stars. Tom thought her drawings were pretty and nice.
+
+At recess, Tom decided to go to Lily and say hello. He walked to her table, where she was drawing a big sun. He said, "Hi, I'm Tom. I like your drawing. Can I see your ink pens?" Lily looked up and smiled. She said, "Hi, Tom. Thank you. Sure, you can see my ink pens. Do you like to draw too?"

+
+Lily saw what happened and got angry. She stood up and said to the big boy, "That was not nice. You are mean and rude. You have no right to push Tom. He is my friend. His drawings are not ugly and weird. They are different and cool. Go away!" She helped Tom get up and gave him a tissue. She said, "I'm sorry, Tom. Are you okay? Don't listen to him. He is a bully.

+Amy decided to pray for help. She closed her eyes, put her hands together, and said, "Please help me save the little bird." When she opened her eyes, she saw a long stick. She used the stick to lift the bird out of the deep hole.
+
+The bird was so happy to be free. It looked at Amy and said, "Thank you for saving me!" Amy smiled and said, "You're welcome, little bird. I'm glad I could help." From that day on, Amy and the bird became the best of friends.
+Once upon a time, there was a happy dog named Spot. Spot loved to run and play in the sun. One day, Spot found a new friend. The friend was very small. It was a flea.
+
+Spot and the flea liked to play together. They would rush and jump all around the yard, laughing and having fun. The flea would hop on Spot's back, and they would race through the grass. They were always happy when they played together.
+
+One day, it started to rain, and Spot and the flea had to go inside. They were sad that they could not play outside, but they found a new game to play. They played hide and seek in the house. Spot and the flea were happy again, even when they could not play in the sun.
+Lily was hungry. She wanted some food. She saw her mom in the kitchen. She walked to her mom and said, "Mom, can I have some food, please?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Of course, Lily. What do you want to eat?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She did not like spicy food. It made her mouth hurt. She liked mild food. It was yummy and gentle. She said, "I want some mild food, please. Maybe some cheese and bread and fruit."
+
+Mom nodded and said, "That sounds good, Lily. I have some cheese and bread and fruit for you. Come and sit at the table. I will bring them to you."
+
+Lily was happy. She thanked her mom and went to the table. She waited for her food. She saw her mom bring a plate with cheese and bread and fruit. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Mom. This is what I requested. This is my favorite mild food." She ate her food and enjoyed it. She felt full and satisfied. She hugged her mom and said, "I love you, Mom. You are the best."
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were flying in an aeroplane. They made zooming noises and waved their arms.
+
+"Look, Lily, there is a real aeroplane in the sky!" Tom said, pointing up.
+
+"Wow, it is so big and fast!" Lily said, looking at the white trail behind the aeroplane.
+
+"I want to mark the aeroplane with my crayon!" Tom said, running to get his paper and crayons.
+
+He drew a big circle on the paper and then a small dot inside it. He said, "This is the aeroplane and this is the pilot."
+
+Lily came to see his drawing. She said, "That is not a good mark, Tom. The aeroplane is not a circle and the pilot is not a dot. You are careless."
+
+Tom felt sad. He said, "I am not careless, Lily. I am just pretending. You can pretend too."
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She said, "OK, Tom, I will pretend with you. But can I mark the aeroplane too?"
+
+Tom smiled. He said, "Yes, Lily, you can mark the aeroplane too. Here, take a crayon."
+
+They both marked the aeroplane on the paper. They made different shapes and colours. They said, "Our aeroplane is the best aeroplane in the world!"
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog has rough skin and sharp teeth. The dog barks at them.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Anna says. "You are scary!"
+
+But the dog does not go away. The dog runs to them. Anna and Ben are afraid. They run to the swings. The dog follows them.
+
+"Help, help!" Ben cries. "The dog wants to bite us!"
+
+A man hears them. The man is the dog's owner. He runs to the park. He sees the dog and the children.
+
+"Stop, stop!" the man says. "He is a good dog. He does not want to bite you. He wants to play with you."
+
+The man calls the dog. The dog comes to the man. The man puts a leash on the dog.
+
+"I am sorry," the man says. "He is a new dog. I just sent him from the farm. He does not know the city. He does not know how to be gentle. He needs to learn."
+
+Anna and Ben stop crying. They look at the dog. The dog wags his tail. He looks sorry.
+
+"Can we pet him?" Anna asks.
+
+"Yes, you can," the man says. "But be careful. His skin is rough. He might lick you."
+
+Anna and Ben pet the dog. The dog licks them. They laugh.
+
+"His skin is rough, but his tongue is soft," Ben says.
+
+"His bark is loud, but his heart is kind," Anna says.
+
+They make friends with the dog. The man smiles.
+
+"Thank you for being nice to him," the man says. "You are good children. You taught him a lesson. He learned that he should not be scary. He should be friendly."
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not judge by appearances. Be kind to others. You might make a new friend.
+Ben and Mia were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. They were very happy.
+
+"Look at our snowman!" Ben said. "He is so big and white!"
+
+"Yes, he is!" Mia said. "But I am cold and tired. Can we go home now?"
+
+Ben yawned. He was also cold and tired. But he wanted to play more. He saw a can of powder on the ground. It was red and shiny. He did not know what it was.
+
+"Wait, Mia!" Ben said. "Let's make our snowman more fun. Look at this powder. Maybe it can make him colorful!"
+
+Mia shook her head. She did not like the powder. It looked bad. She wanted to go home.
+
+"No, Ben!" Mia said. "That powder is not good. It can hurt our snowman. And us. Let's leave it alone."
+
+But Ben did not listen. He opened the can of powder. He threw some of it on the snowman. He laughed. He threw more of it on Mia. She screamed. She was scared and angry.
+
+"Stop it, Ben!" Mia said. "You are mean! You are ruining our snowman!"
+
+But Ben did not stop. He threw more and more powder. He did not see the smoke. He did not hear the hiss. He did not feel the heat.
+
+The powder was not powder. It was fire. It was very bad. It made a big boom. It blew up the snowman. It blew up Ben and Mia. They were gone.
+
+The end.
+Sara and Ben were twins who loved animals. One day, they went with their mom and dad to a farm. There, they saw many cows, sheep, pigs and chickens. They also saw a big stable where the horses lived.
+
+"Can we go inside the stable, mom?" Sara asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful and gentle with the horses. They might be scared of strangers," mom said.
+
+Sara and Ben nodded and followed mom into the stable. They saw four horses, each in a different stall. One was brown, one was black, one was white and one was gray. Sara liked the white horse best. She walked up to the stall and reached out her hand.
+
+"Hello, horse. You are very pretty. What is your name?" Sara said.
+
+The white horse looked at Sara with curious eyes. It sniffed her hand and licked it. Sara giggled. She felt the horse's soft nose and mane. She wanted to pet the horse more, but she heard a loud noise. It was the gray horse. It was shaking its head and stomping its hooves. It seemed angry and unhappy.
+
+"What's wrong with that horse, mom?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know, honey. Maybe it doesn't like being in the stable. Maybe it wants to run and play outside," mom said.
+
+"Can we take it outside, mom?" Ben asked.
+
+"I'm sorry, honey, but we can't. The farmer said we can only look at the horses, not touch them or ride them. Maybe we can come back another day and ask the farmer if we can take the gray horse outside," mom said.
+
+"Okay, mom. But I hope the gray horse feels better soon. It looks sad," Ben said.
+
+Sara and Ben said goodbye to the horses and left the stable. They thanked the farmer for letting them see the animals. They had a fun day at the farm, but they also wished they could make the gray horse happy.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They love to play with toys and books. One day, they go to Anna's house. Anna has a new doll. She shows it to Tom.
+
+"Look, Tom, this is my doll. Her name is Lily. She can drink and cry. Do you want to play with her?" Anna asks.
+
+"Yes, please. She is very pretty. Can I give her some water?" Tom says.
+
+Anna nods and gives Tom a bottle. Tom fills it with water and feeds Lily. Lily makes a sound and drinks. Tom and Anna smile.
+
+But then, something bad happens. Lily starts to leak. Water comes out of her eyes, nose and mouth. She makes a loud noise. Tom and Anna are scared. Anna's mom hears them and comes to see.
+
+"Oh, no! What happened to Lily?" Anna's mom asks.
+
+"I gave her water. I wanted to play with her. But she leaks. I'm sorry, Anna. I'm sorry, mom." Tom says.
+
+Anna's mom is not angry. She is kind. She hugs Tom and Anna.
+
+"It's okay, Tom. You didn't mean to break Lily. It was an accident. You are a good friend. And Lily is not broken. She just needs to dry. We can fix her later. Don't be sorry." Anna's mom says.
+
+Tom and Anna feel better. They hug each other. They are still friends. They love Lily. They love to play.
+Sara and Tom were twins who liked to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big red car that they could ride in the garden. They took turns to drive the car and pretended to go on adventures.
+
+One day, Sara had a dream that she was driving the car alone and that she could go anywhere she wanted. She saw beautiful places and met friendly animals. She was very happy and did not want to wake up.
+
+The next morning, Sara told Tom about her dream. She said, "I had a wonderful dream. I drove the car by myself and had so much fun. I wish I could do that in real life."
+
+Tom felt sad and jealous. He said, "But we always share the car. It is not fair that you want to keep it for yourself. You are a bad sister."
+
+Sara did not care. She said, "I don't want to share anymore. It is my car and my dream. You can play with something else."
+
+Tom was angry and hurt. He said, "Fine. Then I don't want to play with you anymore. You are a selfish sister."
+
+They stopped talking to each other and went to their rooms. They did not play together for the rest of the day.
+
+That night, Sara had another dream. But this time, she was not driving the car alone. She was chased by scary monsters and got lost in a dark forest. She was very afraid and wanted to go home. She cried and called for Tom, but he did not come.
+
+She woke up feeling very uncomfortable and scared. She realized that her dream was a nightmare and that she had been very mean to Tom. She wished she had not been so greedy and rude.
+
+She got out of bed and ran to Tom's room. She knocked on the door and said, "Tom, I'm sorry. I had a bad dream. I don't want to keep the car for myself. I want to share it with you. Can we be friends again?"
+
+But Tom did not answer. He was asleep and did not hear her. He had a dream that he was playing with the car with a new friend who was kind and generous. He was very happy and did not want to wake up.
+
+Sara felt lonely and sad. She learned that being selfish can make you lose your real friends and that sharing is better than having everything for yourself. But it was too late to fix her mistake. She had to wait until the next day to try to make up with Tom. She hoped that he would forgive her and that they could play together again.
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: Sharing is caring. Being selfish can make you unhappy and lonely.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. Sara had a big spoon and Ben had a wooden bowl. They put some flour, water, salt and sugar in the bowl and mixed them together.
+
+"Look, we made dough!" Sara said. "Now we need to bake it in the oven."
+
+"But the oven is too hot and scary," Ben said. "I don't want to go near it."
+
+Sara looked at the oven. It was big and black and made a loud noise. She felt scared too. But she wanted to finish their game.
+
+"Maybe we can find something else to bake it in," she said. "Let's look in the cupboard."
+
+She opened the cupboard door and saw many things inside. There were plates, cups, pots, pans and boxes. She reached for a small metal tin that looked like a cake.
+
+"Here, this will do," she said. "We can put the dough in here and pretend it's a cake."
+
+She gave the tin to Ben and he put the dough inside. He smiled and said, "Good idea, Sara. You are very brave."
+
+They put the tin on the table and pretended to turn on the oven. They waited for a few minutes and then pretended to take out the cake.
+
+"Mmm, it smells good," Sara said. "Let's share it with Mommy and Daddy."
+
+They cut the cake into four pieces and put them on plates. They carried the plates to the living room where their parents were reading.
+
+"Look what we made," Ben said. "It's a cake for you."
+
+Their parents looked surprised and happy. They praised Sara and Ben for their creativity and kindness. They took a bite of the cake and pretended it was delicious.
+
+Sara and Ben felt proud and happy. They hugged their parents and each other. They had fun playing in the kitchen and learned to be brave.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a big doll and Ben had a small car. They were having fun until Lily saw a picture frame on the shelf. The frame had a photo of Lily and her mom when she was a baby.
+
+"Look, Ben, this is me and mommy!" Lily said, grabbing the frame. "Isn't it pretty?"
+
+Ben nodded, but he also wanted to see the frame. He reached out his hand and said, "Can I hold it, please?"
+
+Lily shook her head and hugged the frame. "No, it's mine! Go away!"
+
+Ben felt sad and angry. He thought Lily was selfish. He wanted to share, but she didn't. He tried to pull the frame from her, but she held it tighter. They started to fight over the frame.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" Mommy said, hearing the noise. She came into the living room and saw them struggling. "What are you doing? You could break the frame!"
+
+She took the frame from them and put it back on the shelf. She looked at them with a stern face. "That was very naughty of you. You should not fight over things. You should be kind and share. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded, feeling ashamed. They said sorry to each other and to mommy. They hugged and made up. They decided to play with their toys together and not be selfish anymore. They learned to save the frame and their friendship.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the park. They liked to run, swing, slide and climb. One day, they saw something new in the park. It was a big, tall statue of a man. He had a hat, a coat and a stick. He looked very serious.
+
+"Who is he?" Tom asked Lily.
+
+"I don't know," Lily said. "Maybe he is a king or a hero."
+
+They went closer to the statue. They wanted to touch it and see how it felt. But when they got near, something strange happened. The statue moved! He lifted his stick and pointed at them. He opened his mouth and said, "Boo!"
+
+Tom and Lily were very scared. They screamed and ran away. They thought the statue was alive and angry. They hid behind a bench and peeked at the statue.
+
+But the statue did not move again. He stayed still and quiet. Tom and Lily wondered what was going on. They looked around and saw a man behind a tree. He was holding a remote control. He was laughing. He had made the statue move and talk. He had played a trick on them.
+
+Tom and Lily were not scared anymore. They were angry. They did not like the man's joke. They decided to play a trick on him too. They waited until he was not looking. Then they ran to the statue and took his hat and coat. They ran away with them and hid them under a slide. They giggled and waited for the man to notice.
+
+The man looked for his hat and coat. He could not find them. He was confused and worried. He did not know what had happened. He looked at the statue and saw that it was bare. He felt silly and ashamed. He had been fooled by two children.
+
+Tom and Lily watched the man. They felt happy and proud. They had taught him a lesson. They had made the statue appear different. They had had fun in the park.
+Tim and Sam liked to play with their toy cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They liked to make them go fast and make loud noises. They pretended they were drivers in a big race.
+
+One day, they found a new toy car in the store. It was big and red and shiny. It had a big engine that made a lot of noise. Tim and Sam wanted to buy it, but it was very expensive. They asked their mom, but she said no. She said they had enough cars and they should save their money for something else.
+
+Tim and Sam were sad and angry. They decided to take the car without paying. They thought no one would see them. They put the car in their backpack and ran out of the store. They went to the park to play with their new car.
+
+They took out the car and turned it on. The engine roared and the car zoomed away. Tim and Sam chased after it, laughing and shouting. They thought they were very clever and lucky.
+
+But then, something bad happened. The car went too fast and hit a big rock. The car flew in the air and landed on the ground. The engine broke and the car stopped. Tim and Sam ran to the car and saw that it was ruined. They felt very sorry and scared.
+
+They heard a voice behind them. It was the store owner. He had followed them and seen what they did. He was very angry and sad. He said they had stolen his car and broken it. He said they had to pay for it and go to the police. He said they had done a very bad thing.
+
+Tim and Sam cried and begged for forgiveness. They said they were sorry and they would never do it again. They said they would give back all their cars and work hard to pay for the new car. They said they had learned their lesson.
+
+The store owner saw that they were sincere and felt sorry for them. He said he would not call the police, but he would talk to their mom. He said they had to raise their hands and promise to be honest and good from now on. He said they had to respect other people's things and be grateful for what they had.
+
+Tim and Sam raised their hands and promised. They thanked the store owner and apologized again. They took their backpack and walked back home with him. They felt very ashamed and sad, but also relieved and hopeful. They had made a big mistake, but they had also learned a valuable lesson.
+Sam was a clumsy boy. He liked to play with ice. He would take ice from the freezer and make shapes with it. He would slide ice on the floor and watch it melt. He would throw ice in the air and catch it with his mouth.
+
+One day, Sam was playing with ice in the kitchen. He saw a big bottle of juice on the counter. He wanted to drink some juice. He climbed on a chair and reached for the bottle. But he was too clumsy. He knocked over the bottle and it fell on the floor. The juice spilled everywhere.
+
+Sam was scared. He heard his mom coming. He tried to hide the mess. He grabbed some ice and put it on the juice. He thought the ice would make the juice go away. But he was wrong. The ice made the juice colder and stickier. It also made the floor slippery.
+
+Sam's mom came into the kitchen. She saw the juice and the ice on the floor. She was angry. She slipped on the ice and fell down. She hurt her back. She yelled at Sam. She said he was a bad boy. She said he had to go to his room. She said he could not play with ice anymore.
+
+Sam was sad. He cried. He went to his room. He wished he had not been so clumsy. He wished he had not played with ice. He wished he had not tried to drink the juice. He wished he had a good ending.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to splash in the pool and make bubbles. But then the sun came out and it was very hot. The pool water started to dry up. Lily and Tom were sad.
+
+"Let's go inside and find something else to play with," Lily said.
+
+"OK," Tom agreed.
+
+They ran to the house and opened the door. But they saw something that made them stop. There was a big, black dog on the sofa. It had sharp teeth and a loud bark. Lily and Tom felt a shock in their chests. They were scared.
+
+"Who are you?" the dog growled.
+
+"We live here," Lily said in a small voice. "Who are you?"
+
+"I'm Max. I'm the new dog. Your mom and dad brought me home today. They said I could stay here and be your friend," the dog said.
+
+Lily and Tom looked at each other. They didn't know they were getting a new dog. They didn't know if they wanted a new dog. They didn't know if they liked this dog.
+
+"Can we pet you?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sure. I'm very soft and cuddly. Come here and see," Max said.
+
+Lily and Tom took a step closer. They reached out their hands and touched Max's fur. It was soft and warm. Max licked their faces and wagged his tail. He was friendly and happy. Lily and Tom smiled. They felt a new feeling in their hearts. They liked this dog.
+
+"Maybe you can be our friend," Lily said.
+
+"Maybe you can play with us in the garden," Tom said.
+
+"Maybe we can be a family," Max said.
+
+And they were.
+Tom and Lily were two cats who lived on the street. They had no home, no food, and no friends. They were always cold, hungry, and scared. One day, they saw a big house with a garden. They smelled something sweet coming from the kitchen. They decided to sneak in and look for some food.
+
+They crawled under the fence and ran to the back door. They saw a bowl of milk and a plate of cookies on the porch. They were so happy. They jumped on the porch and started to drink and eat. They did not see the dog who lived in the house. He heard them and came out to bark at them.
+
+Tom and Lily were very afraid. They dropped the milk and the cookies and ran away. The dog chased them and bit them. They cried and ran as fast as they could. They hid under a car and hoped the dog would not find them. They were hurt, dirty, and sad.
+
+Sam and Molly were two kids who lived in the house. They loved animals and wanted to have a pet. They saw the dog barking and ran outside to see what was wrong. They saw the spilled milk and the broken cookies. They felt sorry for the cats who had tried to eat them. They looked around and saw the cats under the car. They went to them and tried to be nice.
+
+They said, "Don't be scared. We won't hurt you. We want to help you. You look hungry and cold. Do you want to come with us? We have a warm and cozy shelter for you. We have more food and water for you. We have toys and blankets for you. We will love you and take care of you."
+
+Tom and Lily were surprised. They had never met such kind and sweet kids. They felt a warm and fuzzy feeling in their hearts. They decided to trust them and come out of the car. They let the kids rub their fur and pick them up. They purred and licked their faces. They followed them to the house and met the dog. He was not mean anymore. He wagged his tail and licked their noses. He wanted to be their friend.
+
+Tom and Lily were very happy. They had found a new home, a new family, and a new friend. They learned that stealing was wrong and that kindness was right. They thanked the kids and the dog for saving them. They lived happily ever after.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hill with many rocks and trees. They wanted to climb the hill and see what was on the other side.
+
+"Let's go, Tom!" Lily said. "It will be fun!"
+
+"OK, Lily!" Tom said. "But be careful. The rocks are sharp and the trees have thorns."
+
+They started to climb the hill. They held hands and helped each other. They stumbled on some rocks and got some marks on their knees and elbows. But they did not cry. They were brave.
+
+They reached the top of the hill. They looked around and saw a big lake. The lake was blue and shiny. They saw some ducks and fish and frogs. They wanted to go closer and touch the water.
+
+"Look, Tom!" Lily said. "The lake is so pretty! Can we go and play with the ducks?"
+
+"Sure, Lily!" Tom said. "But be careful. The water is deep and cold."
+
+They ran down the hill. They let go of their hands and forgot about the rocks and the trees. They stumbled on some roots and fell down. They got some more marks on their faces and hands. But they did not cry. They were excited.
+
+They reached the edge of the lake. They saw the ducks and the fish and the frogs. They wanted to feed them and pet them and catch them.
+
+"Here, Tom!" Lily said. "I have some bread for the ducks! Throw some to them!"
+
+"OK, Lily!" Tom said. "But be careful. The ducks can bite and the fish can splash."
+
+They threw some bread to the ducks. The ducks came closer and quacked. They looked friendly and cute. They wanted to touch them and hug them.
+
+"Come, Tom!" Lily said. "Let's go and play with the ducks! They are so soft and warm!"
+
+"OK, Lily!" Tom said. "But be careful. The lake is slippery and wet."
+
+They stepped into the lake. They felt the water on their feet and legs. It was cold and ticklish. They laughed and giggled.
+
+They walked deeper into the lake. They reached for the ducks and the fish and the frogs. They did not see the hole in the lake. They did not hear their mom calling them. They did not feel themselves sinking.
+
+They stumbled into the hole. They got some marks on their heads and chests. They cried and screamed. They were scared.
+
+They did not come out of the hole. They did not play with the ducks and the fish and the frogs. They did not see the sun and the sky and the clouds.
+
+They were gone.
+Sara and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. Sara has a nice doll with a pink dress and long hair. Ben has a big truck with four wheels and a horn. They are having fun, but they want different things.
+
+"Can I play with your doll?" Ben asks Sara.
+
+"No, it is mine. You can play with your truck," Sara says.
+
+"But I want to see her hair. It is so long and pretty," Ben says.
+
+He tries to grab the doll from Sara, but she holds it tight. They pull and tug, and the doll's head falls off. Sara and Ben are both shocked. Sara starts to scream.
+
+"Mommy! Mommy! Ben broke my doll! He is mean!" Sara screams.
+
+She runs to her mom, who is in the kitchen. She shows her the doll's head and cries. Her mom hugs her and looks at the doll.
+
+"Oh, Sara, I'm sorry. It was an accident. Ben didn't mean to break your doll. He just wanted to play with you," her mom says.
+
+She takes the doll's head and the body and tries to fix them. She sees that the doll's lip is also torn. She gets some glue and a needle and thread.
+
+"Can you help me fix your doll, Sara?" her mom asks.
+
+Sara nods and wipes her tears. She helps her mom glue the head back and sew the lip. She is careful not to poke herself with the needle. She is happy when the doll looks nice again.
+
+"Thank you, Mommy. You are the best," Sara says.
+
+She hugs her mom and her doll. She looks at Ben, who is still in the living room. He is playing with his truck, but he looks sad.
+
+"Ben, do you want to play with my doll?" Sara asks.
+
+Ben looks up and smiles. He nods and walks to Sara. He takes the doll gently and strokes her hair.
+
+"Thank you, Sara. You are nice. I'm sorry I broke your doll," Ben says.
+
+He gives the doll back to Sara and hugs her. They play together with their toys and share. Their mom watches them and smiles. She is proud of them.
+Ben loves animals. He wants to be a veterinarian when he grows up. A veterinarian is a person who helps animals when they are sick or hurt. Ben likes to read books about animals and watch them on TV.
+
+One day, Ben goes to the zoo with his mom and dad. He is very excited to see all the different animals. He sees lions, monkeys, giraffes, and elephants. He wants to pet them and talk to them, but his mom and dad tell him to stay behind the fence.
+
+At the elephant enclosure, Ben sees an enormous elephant. The elephant is bigger than a car. It has a long trunk, big ears, and tusks. Ben thinks the elephant is very beautiful and smart. He waves at the elephant and says hello.
+
+The elephant sees Ben and walks towards him. It reaches its trunk over the fence and touches Ben's hair. Ben giggles and strokes the trunk. He feels the elephant's breath on his face. He says, "You are very nice. I like you."
+
+The elephant makes a loud noise and flaps its ears. It seems to like Ben too. A zookeeper comes over and kneels next to Ben. He smiles and says, "Hello, I'm Sam. I'm a veterinarian. I take care of the elephants here. This is Ellie. She is very friendly and curious. She likes to meet new people."
+
+Ben says, "Hi, Sam. I'm Ben. I want to be a veterinarian too. I love animals. Can I help you with Ellie?"
+
+Sam says, "Sure, Ben. You can help me feed her some carrots and apples. She loves those. Do you want to do that?"
+
+Ben says, "Yes, please. That sounds fun."
+
+Sam gives Ben a bucket of carrots and apples. Ben follows Sam to the gate and goes inside the enclosure. He holds a carrot in his hand and offers it to Ellie. Ellie takes it with her trunk and puts it in her mouth. She makes a happy sound and wags her tail. Ben laughs and gives her another carrot. He feels very happy too. He thinks Ellie is his new friend. He hopes to see her again soon.
+Ben and Mia were twins who liked to play in the park. They saw a big bridge that crossed a stream. They wanted to go over the bridge and see what was on the other side.
+
+"Let's crawl under the bridge first," Ben said. "It will be fun and scary."
+
+"OK," Mia said. "But be careful. There might be bugs or mud."
+
+They crawled under the bridge, holding hands. They saw some stones, some sticks, and some leaves. They also saw a small hole in the wall of the bridge.
+
+"Look, a hole!" Ben said. "I wonder what's inside."
+
+He put his hand in the hole and felt something soft and furry. He pulled it out and saw a baby rabbit.
+
+"Wow, a rabbit!" Mia said. "It's so cute and humble. Can we keep it?"
+
+Ben smiled and nodded. He held the rabbit gently and stroked its ears. The rabbit looked at them with big eyes and twitched its nose.
+
+They crawled out of the bridge, happy and excited. They wanted to show their new friend to their mom and dad. They did not see the big sign that said "Danger: Do not touch the rabbits. They are sick and can bite."
+
+They walked towards their parents, who were sitting on a bench. They did not notice the rabbit's teeth getting sharper and its eyes getting redder. They did not hear the rabbit's growl getting louder and louder. They did not feel the rabbit's bite until it was too late.
+Anna was very enthusiastic about going to the zoo. She wanted to see the lions, the monkeys, and the elephants. She asked her mom and dad every day when they would go.
+
+One night, Anna had a dream. She dreamed that she was at the zoo, but it was dark and quiet. She saw a big sign that said "Night Safari". She followed the sign and saw a big truck with a lot of seats. She climbed on the truck and saw a man with a flashlight and a hat. He said, "Welcome to the night safari. We are going to see some animals that are awake at night. Are you ready?"
+
+Anna nodded and smiled. She was ready. The truck started to move and the man pointed his flashlight at different places. He showed Anna the owls, the bats, the foxes, and the raccoons. He told her some facts about them, like how they can see and hear very well in the dark, and how they find their food. Anna was amazed and curious. She asked him many questions and he answered them kindly.
+
+Then, the truck stopped at a big cage. The man said, "This is the last stop. Do you know what animal this is?" He shone his flashlight at the cage and Anna gasped. She saw a big, furry, striped animal with sharp teeth and claws. It was a tiger. The tiger looked at Anna and growled softly. Anna felt scared and excited at the same time. She said, "It's a tiger. It's beautiful and scary. Does it bite?"
+
+The man said, "Don't worry. The tiger won't bite you. It's very friendly and gentle. It likes to play and cuddle. Do you want to pet it?" He opened the cage and invited Anna to come closer. Anna hesitated, but she wanted to try. She believed the man. She walked slowly to the cage and reached out her hand. The tiger licked her hand and rubbed its head against her arm. Anna felt its warm breath and soft fur. She giggled and said, "It's nice. I like it. Can I take it home?"
+
+The man laughed and said, "Sorry, you can't take it home. It belongs to the zoo. But you can come back and visit it anytime you want. It likes you too. You are very brave and smart. You are a good friend to the animals."
+
+Anna felt happy and proud. She hugged the tiger and said, "Thank you. You are a good friend too. I had a lot of fun. I love the night safari. I want to come back soon."
+
+Then, she woke up. She realized it was a dream. She looked around and saw her mom and dad sleeping next to her. She smiled and whispered, "I had a wonderful dream. I went to the night safari and met a tiger. It was amazing. I want to tell you all about it in the morning."
+
+She closed her eyes and fell asleep again, dreaming of the animals and the night.
+Tom and Lily are playing in their room. They have many toys, but they like to make up stories with their blankets and pillows. They pretend they are in a jungle, and the blankets are trees and vines. They swing from one blanket to another, and make animal noises.
+
+"Look, Lily, I see a green snake!" Tom says, pointing to a pillow on the floor. "It is very long and scary. I will catch it and save you!"
+
+Tom jumps off the bed and grabs the pillow. He tries to wrap it around his arm, but it is too big and soft. He falls on the floor and laughs.
+
+"Tom, you are silly. That is not a snake, that is my pillow. It is green because it has flowers on it. See?" Lily says, showing him the pillow. "It is not scary, it is pretty. And it is not long, it is round. See?"
+
+Lily rolls the pillow on the floor and makes it into a ball. She throws it to Tom and he catches it.
+
+"OK, Lily, you are right. It is not a snake, it is a pillow. But we can still play with it. Let's pretend it is a soccer ball. We can kick it and score goals!" Tom says, kicking the pillow across the room.
+
+"OK, Tom, let's play soccer. But be careful, don't break anything. And don't lie on the floor, it is dirty. Come on, get up and play!" Lily says, running after the pillow.
+
+Tom and Lily play soccer with the pillow, and have a lot of fun. They forget about the jungle and the snake, and just enjoy their game. They laugh and cheer and hug each other. They are happy.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the pool. The pool is big and blue. They splash and swim and laugh.
+
+One day, they see a tall man near the pool. He has a hat and a stick. He looks at the pool and says, "Hmm, what is this?"
+
+Anna and Ben are curious. They swim to the edge of the pool and say, "Hello, mister. This is a pool. We play in the pool. Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The tall man smiles and says, "Hello, children. I am a scientist. I study the pool. I use my stick to poke the water and see what is inside."
+
+Anna and Ben are amazed. They say, "Wow, a scientist! What do you find in the water?"
+
+The tall man says, "I find many things. I find fish and plants and bugs and rocks. Sometimes I find something new and exciting. Do you want to see?"
+
+Anna and Ben nod and say, "Yes, please!"
+
+The tall man says, "OK, then. Follow me. But be careful. Do not touch anything. Some things can be dangerous."
+
+Anna and Ben follow the tall man. They see him poke the water with his stick. He shows them different things he finds. They learn a lot and have fun. They thank the tall man for showing them his work. They say, "Bye, mister. Come back soon. We like you."
+
+The tall man says, "Bye, children. You are very smart and brave. I like you too. I will come back soon. Keep playing and learning." He waves and leaves.
+
+Anna and Ben go back to the pool. They splash and swim and laugh. They are happy. They have a new friend. He is a tall man. He is a scientist. He pokes the water.
+Lily and Ben were bored. They had no toys to play with. They looked around the room and saw only a big box, some paper, and some crayons.
+
+"Let's create something with these things," Lily said.
+
+"What can we create?" Ben asked.
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She saw a green crayon and remembered the mint ice cream she had yesterday. She liked mint ice cream. It was cold and sweet.
+
+"I know! Let's create mint ice cream cones!" she said.
+
+She took the paper and cut out some circles. She colored them green with the crayon. Then she rolled them into cones and taped them. She gave one to Ben and kept one for herself.
+
+"Look, we have mint ice cream cones!" she said.
+
+Ben looked at his cone. He was not sure if he liked mint ice cream. He had never tried it before.
+
+"Can we eat them?" he asked.
+
+Lily shook her head. "No, silly. They are not real. They are pretend. We can pretend to eat them."
+
+She licked her cone and made a yum sound. She pretended it was cold and sweet.
+
+Ben licked his cone and made a yum sound too. He pretended it was cold and sweet. He decided he liked mint ice cream.
+
+They played with their cones for a while. They pretended to share them with their teddy bears and dolls. They had fun.
+
+Meanwhile, their mom was watching them from the door. She smiled. She was proud of her children. They were creative and happy. They did not need fancy toys to have fun.
+
+She went to the kitchen and took out a tub of mint ice cream from the freezer. She scooped some into two bowls and added some chocolate chips. She brought them to the room.
+
+"Who wants some real mint ice cream?" she asked.
+
+Lily and Ben dropped their paper cones and ran to their mom. They hugged her and thanked her. They took their bowls and spoons and ate their ice cream. It was cold and sweet.
+
+They loved their mom. She was not lazy. She was kind and generous. She made their day.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They also liked to pick up leaves and make piles. Sara found a big red leaf that looked like a heart. She showed it to Ben and said, "Look, this is for you. It is a love leaf."
+
+Ben smiled and took the leaf. He said, "Thank you, Sara. It is very pretty. I will keep it forever." He put the leaf in his pocket and hugged Sara.
+
+They played some more, but then they saw a big dog. The dog was barking and running towards them. Sara and Ben were scared. They ran away, but the dog was faster. The dog jumped on Ben and knocked him down. The leaf fell out of his pocket and flew away.
+
+Sara screamed and ran to help Ben. She pushed the dog away and hugged Ben. She said, "Are you okay, Ben? Did the dog hurt you?"
+
+Ben was crying. He had a scratch on his arm and a hole in his pocket. He said, "I'm okay, Sara. But the dog took my leaf. The love leaf you gave me. It is gone."
+
+Sara felt sad. She said, "I'm sorry, Ben. I know you liked the leaf. But I have something else for you. It is a love hug. It will never go away."
+
+Ben stopped crying and hugged Sara back. He said, "Thank you, Sara. You are very kind. I love you."
+
+They heard a voice behind them. It was the dog's owner. He said, "I'm sorry, kids. My dog didn't mean to scare you. He just wanted to play. He is very mild and friendly. Can you forgive him?"
+
+Sara and Ben looked at the dog. The dog wagged his tail and licked his lips. He looked sorry. Sara and Ben nodded. They said, "We forgive him. He is a good dog."
+
+The dog's owner smiled and said, "Thank you, kids. You are very brave and nice. Here, I have something for you. It is a leaf. A love leaf. I found it on the ground. Maybe it is yours."
+
+He gave the leaf to Ben. It was the same big red leaf that Sara had given him. Ben was happy. He said, "Thank you, sir. It is mine. It is a love leaf. Sara gave it to me."
+
+He showed the leaf to Sara and said, "Look, Sara. The leaf came back. It is a magic leaf. It is a love leaf."
+
+Sara smiled and said, "Yes, Ben. It is a magic leaf. It is a love leaf. And we are love friends."
+
+They hugged each other and the dog. They were happy. They had learned that love can forgive and love can come back. And love can make a mild day bright.
+Tom and Lily are players. They like to play with balls and dolls and cars. One day, they go to the park with their mom. They see a big slide and a swing and a sandbox. They are happy.
+
+They run to the slide and take turns to go down. They laugh and shout. Then they go to the swing and push each other. They feel the wind in their hair. Then they go to the sandbox and make castles and roads. They have fun.
+
+But then, a big boy comes to the sandbox. He is not nice. He is mean. He wants to play with Tom and Lily's toys. He does not ask. He steals. He takes Tom's car and Lily's doll. He runs away.
+
+Tom and Lily are sad. They cry. They want their toys back. They tell their mom. Their mom is angry. She goes to the big boy and says, "Give back the toys. You are not a good player. You are a bad player. You do not steal. Stealing is wrong."
+
+The big boy is scared. He sees that Tom and Lily's mom is strong. He does not want to fight. He gives back the toys. He says, "Sorry. I will not steal again. I will be a good player."
+
+Tom and Lily are happy. They hug their mom. They hug their toys. They say, "Thank you, mom. You are the best. You are strong. You are a good player." They go back to the sandbox and play. They share. They are friends.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play outside in the sun. They run, jump, and laugh. They see many things: birds, flowers, bugs. They are curious. They ask many questions.
+
+One day, the sun is not warm. The sky is gray. The wind is cold. Tom and Mia wear coats and hats. They go outside to play. But they do not see many things. The birds are gone. The flowers are brown. The bugs are hiding. They are not curious. They are bored.
+
+"Where are the birds?" Tom asks.
+
+"They fly away to a warm place," Mia says.
+
+"Where are the flowers?" Tom asks.
+
+"They sleep under the ground," Mia says.
+
+"Where are the bugs?" Tom asks.
+
+"They stay in their homes," Mia says.
+
+"Why?" Tom asks.
+
+"Because it is winter," Mia says.
+
+"What is winter?" Tom asks.
+
+Mia thinks. She does not know how to explain winter. She only knows it is cold and long. She worries. She does not like winter. She misses the sun and the fun.
+
+"Winter is a time when everything is quiet and still," she says. "But it does not last forever. The sun will come back. The birds will come back. The flowers will come back. The bugs will come back. And we will be curious and happy again."
+
+Tom nods. He trusts Mia. He does not worry. He smiles.
+
+"Can we still play outside in winter?" he asks.
+
+"Sure, we can," Mia says. "We can make a snowman, or throw snowballs, or slide on the ice. Winter can be fun, too."
+
+Tom and Mia hold hands. They go to look for snow. They are friends. They are brave. They are ready for winter.
+Sara and Ben wanted to go to the park. They asked their mom if they could go. Mom said yes, but they had to take their little brother Tom with them. Sara and Ben did not like that. They said Tom was too slow and noisy. They refused to take him.
+
+Mom was not happy. She said they had to be nice to Tom. He was their brother and he wanted to play with them. She said they could not go to the park without him. Sara and Ben were angry. They said they did not want to go to the park anymore. They went to their room and slammed the door.
+
+Tom was sad. He did not understand why Sara and Ben did not like him. He liked them very much. He wanted to go to the park with them. He thought it would be fun. He knocked on their door and asked them to come out. He said he was sorry if he was slow and noisy. He said he would try to be faster and quieter. He said he loved them.

+
+"Come on, Ben, let's go on the slide. It will be fun!" Anna says.
+
+"No, Anna, I don't want to go. It is too high. I will fall and hurt myself." Ben says.
+
+Anna tries to make Ben feel better. She says, "Don't be scared, Ben. I will go with you. We can hold hands and slide together. It will be easy and fast. You will like it."
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He trusts Anna. He says, "Okay, Anna, I will try. But you have to go first. I will follow you."
+
+Anna smiles and says, "Okay, Ben, I will go first. But you have to promise me something. You have to pay me a price for going with you."
+
+Ben is confused. He says, "A price? What is a price?"
+
+Anna says, "A price is something you give me for doing something for you. My price is a hug. You have to give me a hug after we slide."
+
+Ben says, "A hug? That is easy. I can give you a hug. I like hugs."
+
+Anna says, "Good. Then let's go. Follow me."
+
+Anna and Ben go to the slide. Anna goes first. She slides down fast and laughs. She waits for Ben at the bottom. Ben is nervous. He takes a deep breath and slides down.

+
+Anna and Tom start to argue. They do not agree on what to play. They raise their voices and make faces. They are not friends anymore.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see. She sees the book and the dolls. She says, "Tom and Anna, why are you fighting? You can both play with what you like. You do not have to play with the same thing. You can share and take turns. You can also play together and mix the book and the dolls. You can give your dolls brains and teach them what you learn from the book. You can give your book stories and make it more fun. You can be creative and kind. That is how you can be good friends."

+Ben was a boy who liked to draw. He had many colors and papers to make pictures. He drew cars, animals, houses and flowers. He was happy when he drew.
+
+One day, he wanted to draw a big sun on his paper. He took a yellow color and made a circle. But he made a mistake. He drew the circle too big and it touched the edge of the paper.

+
+His mom said, "That's good, Ben. I'm glad you found your eraser. But remember, it's not good to wander around with your things. You might lose them or forget them. You should keep them in your box or on your table, where you can see them."
+
+Ben said, "You're right, mom. I will do that. Thank you for helping me."
+
+He hugged his mom and went back to his paper. He used his eraser to fix his sun. He made it smaller and rounder. He was happy with his picture. He learned to be careful with his things and not to wander around with them. He showed his picture to his mom and dad. They were proud of him.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a fat cricket on the grass. Tom wanted to catch it and put it in a jar.
+
+"Look, Lily, a fat cricket! Let's catch it and keep it as a pet!" Tom said.
+

+
+"No, Tom, I don't want to catch the cricket. It is ugly and noisy. It will make a lot of noise in the jar. And it might bite us!" Lily said.
+
+Tom did not listen to Lily. He ran after the cricket and tried to catch it with his hands. But the cricket was fast and smart. It jumped away from Tom and hid under a rock.
+
+Tom was sad and angry. He could not catch the cricket. He wanted to have a pet.
+
+"Lily, help me catch the cricket! It is fast and smart. I want to have a pet!" Tom said.
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not want to help Tom. She had a better idea.
+
+"Tom, I have a better idea. I recommend you to get a different pet. A pet that is not ugly and noisy. A pet that is cute and friendly. A pet that you can hug and play with. A pet like a puppy!" Lily said.
+
+Tom thought about Lily's idea. He liked the idea of having a puppy. A puppy was cute and friendly. A puppy could hug and play with him. A puppy was a better pet than a cricket.
+
+"OK, Lily, you are right. I recommend you to get a puppy too. Let's go and ask our mom and dad if we can get a puppy. Maybe they will say yes!" Tom said.
+
+Tom and Lily left the park and went home. They forgot about the cricket. The cricket was happy. It came out from under the rock and jumped away. It did not want to be a pet. It wanted to be free.
+Ben likes to whistle. He whistles when he plays, when he eats, and when he goes to bed. He whistles all kinds of songs, like "Twinkle, Twinkle" and "Old MacDonald". He thinks whistling is fun and makes him happy.

+Ben puts on the helmet and gets on the bike. He starts to pedal and whistles a song. He feels fast and strong. He sees a hill and wants to go down it. He pedals harder and faster. He whistles louder and louder.
+
+But then, he sees a scary dog at the bottom of the hill. The dog is big and black and has sharp teeth. It barks and growls at Ben. Ben is scared and wants to stop. He tries to use the brakes, but they don't work. He whistles for help, but no one hears him.
+
+He closes his eyes and hopes the dog will go away. He feels a bump and a crash. He opens his eyes and sees his mom. She is holding him and hugging him. She says he is okay and she is proud of him.

+
+Ben feels better and smiles. He says he is sorry for the bike and the dog. He says he still likes to whistle, but not on a bike. He says he likes to whistle on a swing. He and his mom go to the swing and whistle a song. They have fun and are happy.

+
+Spot ran to Sara and Ben. He was happy and tired. He wagged his tail and licked their faces. Sara and Ben laughed and hugged him.

+They started to walk home. Sara and Ben held hands. Spot followed them. He saw a big truck on the road. It was loud and fast and rough. It made Spot scared and angry. He barked and growled and ran towards it.
+
+"Spot, no!" Sara and Ben shouted. "Stop, Spot, stop!"
+
+But Spot did not stop. He ran in front of the truck. The truck driver saw him and tried to brake. But it was too late. The truck hit Spot. Spot yelped and flew in the air. He landed on the sidewalk. He did not move.
+
+Sara and Ben ran to Spot. They cried and screamed and hugged him. He was hurt and bleeding and still. They did not know what to do.
+
+A lady came out of the truck. She was sorry and scared and sad. She said she did not see Spot. She said she was sorry. She said she would help.
+
+She called the vet. The vet came in a car. He had a bag and a blanket. He looked at Spot. He said Spot was alive. He said he could help. He said he would take Spot to the hospital.
+
+He wrapped Spot in the blanket. He lifted him in his arms. He carried him to the car. He said Sara and Ben could come with him. He said he would try to save Spot.
+
+Sara and Ben went with him. They held each other. They prayed for Spot. They hoped he would be okay. They hoped he would get his treat. They hoped they would see him smile again.
+Lila and Ben were twins who liked to look at the stars at night. They had a big window in their room that showed them the sky. Sometimes they saw the moon and sometimes they saw many stars.
+
+One night, they saw a very bright star that was bigger than the others. They wondered what it was and how far it was. They wanted to touch it and see if it was warm or cold.
+
+"Can we go to the star, Mommy?" Lila asked.
+
+"No, my loves, the star is too far and too hot. You would get hurt if you went there," Mommy said.
+
+"But we want to see it, please, please, please!" Ben begged.
+
+Mommy smiled and hugged them. She told them a story about the star. She said it was a special star that was a gift from God. She said it was cold outside, but the star was warm and bright. She said the star was there to watch over them and make their dreams come true.
+
+Lila and Ben listened to the story and felt happy. They thanked Mommy and said good night. They looked at the star one more time and made a wish. They wished they could always be together and see the star. They closed their eyes and fell asleep. The star twinkled and smiled.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big hill. They want to go up the hill and see what is on the other side.
+
+Tom says, "Let's go up the hill. Maybe we can find something fun." Mia says, "OK, but we have to be tidy. We can't leave any mess behind."
+
+They start to climb the hill. They see some flowers, some rocks, and some bugs. They pick some flowers and put them in their pockets. They pick some rocks and throw them down the hill. They pick some bugs and let them go.
+
+But then, they see a sign. The sign says, "Keep off the grass. This is a nature reserve. Do not pick or disturb anything." Tom and Mia feel bad. They did not know they were not supposed to pick or disturb anything. They look at the mess they made. They see some flowers, some rocks, and some bugs on the ground.
+
+Tom says, "We have to fix this. We have to be tidy. We have to put everything back where it belongs." Mia says, "You are right. We have to be sorry. We have to be careful. We have to respect nature."
+
+They start to fix their mess. They pick up the flowers and put them back in the ground. They pick up the rocks and put them back on the hill. They pick up the bugs and put them back where they found them. They make sure everything is tidy.
+
+They go down the hill. They see a ranger. The ranger says, "What are you doing here? This is a nature reserve. You are not supposed to be here." Tom and Mia say, "We are sorry. We did not know. We made a mess, but we fixed it. We were tidy. We will not do it again." The ranger says, "I am glad you fixed your mess. I am glad you were tidy. I am glad you learned your lesson. But you still have to leave. This is not a place for playing. This is a place for protecting."
+
+Tom and Mia leave the hill. They say goodbye to the ranger. They say goodbye to the flowers, the rocks, and the bugs. They say, "We are sorry. We will not come back. We will find another place to play. A place where we can be tidy and have fun."
+Tommy and Lily were best friends. They liked to play with their toys, sing songs, and make funny faces. They always had fun together.
+
+But one day, Tommy had to go away with his family. They were going to visit his grandma in another town. Tommy was sad to leave Lily. He gave her a big hug and said, "I will miss you, Lily. You are my best friend."
+
+Lily was sad too. She said, "I will miss you too, Tommy. You are my best friend. When will you come back?"
+
+Tommy said, "I don't know. Maybe in a few days. But I will call you and write you a letter. And I will bring you a present."
+
+Tommy packed his bag and put his favorite toy in it. It was a teddy bear with a zipper on its back. Tommy liked to open the zipper and hide things inside the bear. He said, "I will take good care of Zipper. He will keep me company."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "That's good. Zipper is a jolly bear. He likes to play and cuddle. But don't forget to close his zipper. He might lose his things."
+
+Tommy nodded and said, "I won't forget. I will close his zipper tight. And I will tell him stories about you and our games."
+
+Tommy and Lily waved goodbye and said, "See you soon. I love you."
+
+They hoped they would see each other again soon. They missed each other very much. But they knew they were still best friends. And they looked forward to their next adventure.
+Anna liked to help her dad fix things. He had a big box of tools that made loud noises and shiny sparks. Sometimes he let Anna hold a tool or a screw, but he always told her to be careful.
+
+One day, dad was fixing the lamp in the living room. He asked Anna to bring him a screw from the box. Anna ran to the box and looked inside. There were many screws of different sizes and shapes. She picked one that looked like a star and ran back to dad.
+
+"Here you go, dad!" she said, handing him the screw.
+
+Dad looked at the screw and smiled. He recognized it as a special screw that he used for his bike. He thanked Anna and told her that this screw was not the right one for the lamp. He needed a screw that looked like a cross.
+
+Anna felt nervous. She did not want to make a mistake. She ran back to the box and looked again. She saw a screw that looked like a cross and grabbed it. She ran back to dad and gave him the screw.
+
+"Good job, Anna!" dad said, taking the screw. He used his tool to put the screw in the lamp. The lamp was fixed. He turned it on and it made a bright light.
+
+Anna was happy. She helped her dad fix the lamp. She hugged him and he hugged her back. He told her that she was a great helper and that he was proud of her. Anna smiled and felt proud too.
+Lily loved to play the piano. She had a big piano in her room, with many keys. She liked to make music with her fingers. Sometimes she sang along, sometimes she just listened.
+
+One day, her friend Tom came to visit. Tom did not like the piano. He said it was boring and loud. He wanted to play with other toys. He took Lily's ball and threw it at the piano. The ball hit the keys and made a funny sound.
+
+Lily was angry. She said, "Tom, stop it! That is not nice. You are hurting my piano. It is my favorite toy. I want to play with it."
+
+Tom did not listen. He laughed and threw the ball again. He said, "Lily, you are silly. The piano is not a toy. It is a big box with teeth. It cannot make music. It can only make noise. You should play with me."
+
+Lily was sad. She did not want to play with Tom. She wanted to play with her piano. She said, "Tom, you are wrong. The piano is a wonderful toy. It can make music. It can make me happy. You should try it. Maybe you will like it too."
+
+Tom did not want to try. He said, "No, thank you. I do not like the piano. I like the ball. The ball is fun. The ball can bounce and roll and fly. The ball can make me healthy. You should play with me."
+
+Lily did not want to play with the ball. She said, "No, thank you. I like the piano. The piano is fun. The piano can make beautiful sounds and melodies. The piano can make me smart. You should play with me."
+
+Tom and Lily could not agree. They did not play together. They did not laugh together. They did not have fun. They were both unhappy.
+
+Moral: Playing the piano is a good way to enjoy music and learn new skills. Playing with the ball is a good way to exercise and have fun. Both are good toys, but different. We should respect each other's choices and preferences. We should try new things and share our joys. We should play together and laugh together. We should be friends.
+Tom and Mia were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. They had a big pot, some spoons, and some sauce. The sauce was red and smelled good.
+
+"Let's make soup!" Tom said. He poured some sauce into the pot. "We need more things. What else can we put in?"
+
+Mia looked around. She saw some cheese, some bread, and some carrots. She grabbed the cheese and the bread. "How about these?" she asked.
+
+"Good idea!" Tom said. He cut the cheese and the bread into small pieces. He put them in the pot too. "Now we need some water. Can you get some?"
+
+Mia nodded. She took a cup and went to the sink. She turned on the tap and filled the cup with water. She was careful not to spill. She walked back to the pot and poured the water in.
+
+"Wow, it looks good!" Tom said. He stirred the pot with a spoon. "Let's set it on the stove and cook it."
+
+"Okay!" Mia said. She helped Tom lift the pot and set it on the stove. They turned the knob to make the fire. They watched the soup bubble and steam.
+
+"Be careful, it's hot!" Tom said.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was their mom. She came into the kitchen and saw the mess. She saw the sauce, the cheese, the bread, and the carrots. She saw the pot on the stove and the fire. She was angry and scared.
+
+"What are you doing?" she yelled. "You could have burned the house down! This is very dangerous! Turn off the fire right now!"
+
+Tom and Mia were scared too. They did not mean to make mom angry. They did not know it was dangerous. They wanted to make soup for mom. They turned off the fire and ran to mom. They hugged her and said sorry.
+
+Mom hugged them back. She was still angry, but she was also glad they were safe. She said sorry too. She said she loved them, but they should never play with the stove or the sauce. She said they could help her make real soup later, if they cleaned up the kitchen first.
+
+Tom and Mia agreed. They said they loved mom too. They said they would clean up the kitchen and never play with the stove or the sauce again. They learned their lesson. They hoped mom would like their real soup.
+Lucy and Tom were twins who liked to help their mom in the kitchen. They liked to put the dirty plates and cups in the dishwasher and push the buttons to make it start. Mom said they were very good helpers.
+
+One day, when mom was busy in the living room, Lucy and Tom decided to play with the dishwasher. They opened it and took out some of the clean dishes. They pretended they were hats and bowls and drums. They made a lot of noise and had a lot of fun.
+
+But they were also very naughty. They broke some of the dishes and spilled some of the soap. They made a big mess in the kitchen. Mom heard the noise and came to see what was going on. She was very angry and sad.
+
+"Lucy and Tom, what have you done?" she asked. "You have ruined the dishes and the dishwasher. You have been very naughty. You have to say sorry and help me clean up."
+
+Lucy and Tom felt bad. They knew they had done something wrong. They said sorry to mom and hugged her. They helped her pick up the broken pieces and wipe the soap. They promised to never play with the dishwasher again.
+
+Mom forgave them and hugged them back. She said they were still her good helpers, but they had to be more careful and listen to her. She said she loved them very much. Lucy and Tom said they loved her too. They learned their lesson and never played with the dishwasher again.
+Ben and Lily wanted to help Mom make dinner for Thanksgiving. They saw a big turkey on the table. It looked amazing. They wanted to measure it with a ruler.
+
+"Let me do it!" Ben said. He grabbed the ruler and put it on the turkey.
+
+"No, me!" Lily said. She pulled the ruler from Ben and put it on the turkey.
+
+They both tried to measure the turkey, but they kept fighting over the ruler. They made a lot of noise and mess.
+
+Mom heard them and came to the table. She was not happy. She took the ruler from them and said, "Stop! You are not measuring the turkey. You are ruining it. Go to your room and think about what you did."
+
+Ben and Lily felt sad. They said sorry to Mom and went to their room. They did not want to fight anymore. They wanted to help Mom and have a nice dinner. They hugged each other and said, "We love you, Mom. We love turkey, too."
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big book in the attic. The book has many strange words and pictures. Lily thinks it is a spell book. She wants to try a spell.
+
+"Look, Tom, this spell can make us fly!" Lily says. She points to a page with a picture of a bird and some letters.
+
+"No, Lily, don't do it!" Tom warns. He is scared of the book. He thinks it is bad. "We don't know what the spell will do. It might hurt us. Let's go back to our toys."
+
+But Lily does not listen. She likes the book. She thinks it is modern and fun. She says the letters out loud. She hopes to fly like a bird.
+
+Suddenly, the book glows. A loud noise fills the attic. Tom and Lily feel a strange force pull them up. They scream. They fly out of the window. They see the sky and the trees. They are scared. They want to go back.
+
+But the spell does not stop. It makes them fly higher and higher. They cannot breathe. They cannot see. They are cold. They are alone. They cry. They wish they had listened to Tom. They wish they had not played with the spell book. They wish they could go back. But it is too late. The spell is too strong. The spell is bad. The spell is the end.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They saw a big bird's nest on a tree. The nest had four blue eggs inside.
+
+"Wow, look at the eggs!" Tom said. "I want to touch them."
+
+"No, Tom, you can't!" Lily said. "The eggs are not for us. They are for the bird. If you touch them, the bird will be angry."
+
+Lily was bossy. She always told Tom what to do and what not to do. Tom did not like that.
+
+"I don't care," Tom said. "I want to see what's inside the eggs. Maybe there are baby birds."
+
+He climbed the tree and reached for the nest. Lily shouted at him to stop, but he did not listen. He poked one of the eggs with his finger.
+
+Crack! The egg broke and a yellow goo came out. Tom was surprised and scared. He dropped the egg and fell from the tree.
+
+"Ouch!" Tom cried. He hurt his knee and his elbow. He was dirty and sticky.
+
+Lily ran to him and helped him up. She was angry and sad.
+
+"Tom, you are naughty!" she said. "You broke the egg and hurt yourself. The bird will be sad too. You should say sorry."
+
+Tom felt bad. He looked at the nest and saw the bird flying back. The bird saw the broken egg and made a loud noise. It was angry and sad too.
+
+Tom said sorry to the bird and to Lily. He learned his lesson. He did not poke the eggs again. He and Lily played with other things in the garden. They were friends again.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys, but they do not like to share. One day, Mom tells them to clean their room and put their toys in order. She says they can go to the park if they do it fast.
+
+Tom and Lily start to clean, but they fight over the same toys. Tom wants the red car, and Lily wants the blue doll. They pull and push and yell at each other.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" Mom says. "You have to share and be nice. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Lily nod, but they are still angry. They do not want to share. They think their toys are better than the other's.
+
+They finish cleaning, but they do not talk to each other. They go to the park with Mom, but they do not play together. They sit on different benches and look at their toys.
+
+They see other kids playing and having fun. They see some kids sharing and taking turns. They see some kids laughing and smiling. They feel lonely and sad.
+
+They look at each other and feel sorry. They realize they were wrong. They decide to share and be nice. They walk to each other and say sorry.
+
+"Can I play with your car?" Lily asks.
+
+"Sure, and can I play with your doll?" Tom asks.
+
+"Of course, let's play together!" Lily says.
+
+They hug and smile. They play with their toys and have fun. They make new friends and join the games. They are happy and cool.
+
+Mom sees them and is proud. She says, "Well done, you two! You learned to share and be nice. That is very important. I am glad you understand."
+
+Tom and Lily nod and say, "We understand, Mom. We love you and we love each other."
+
+The moral value of the story is: Sharing and being nice are important for having fun and making friends.
+Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys in the playroom. They have many toys: dolls, cars, blocks, books and more. They want to organize their toys and make the playroom neat.
+
+Sara says, "Let's put the dolls here, the cars there, the blocks here and the books there. Then we can have peace and play nicely."
+
+Tom says, "No, I don't want to do that. I want to put the dolls there, the cars here, the blocks there and the books here. That is more lively and fun."
+
+Sara and Tom start to argue. They pull and push the toys. They shout and cry. They do not listen to each other. They make a big mess in the playroom.
+
+Mom comes in and sees the mess. She is angry. She says, "Sara and Tom, what are you doing? You are not organizing your toys. You are making a big mess. You are not being good friends. You are not having peace. You are having a fight. You have to stop and say sorry to each other. And you have to clean up the playroom. Now!"
+
+Sara and Tom feel sad and sorry. They say sorry to each other. They try to organize their toys. But they have no time to play. They have to go to bed. They have a bad ending.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a ball, a bike and a kite. They have fun in the sun.
+
+One day, the sky is grey. It starts to rain. Tom and Sue run to the big tree. They sit under the tree and wait for the rain to stop.
+
+"Rain, rain, go away, come again another day," they sing.
+
+But the rain does not go away. It gets darker and darker. Tom and Sue are scared.
+
+"I don't like the dark," Sue says. "It is spooky. I want to go home."
+
+"Me too," Tom says. "But we have to be tough. We have to learn how to be brave in the dark. Maybe we can tell each other stories to make us feel better."
+
+"OK," Sue says. "What kind of stories?"
+
+"Happy stories," Tom says. "Stories about rainbows, and stars, and fairies, and dragons."
+
+"Dragons?" Sue says. "But dragons are scary."
+
+"Not all dragons," Tom says. "Some dragons are nice. They can fly and breathe fire and help people. I have a story about a nice dragon. Do you want to hear it?"
+
+"Yes, please," Sue says.
+
+Tom starts to tell Sue a story about a nice dragon. He makes the story funny and exciting. Sue listens and smiles. She forgets about the dark and the rain. She feels warm and safe with Tom.
+
+They tell each other more stories until the rain stops and the sun comes out. They see a rainbow in the sky. They are happy.
+
+They pick up their ball, their bike and their kite. They run to their moms and dads. They hug them and tell them about their stories.
+
+They are not scared of the dark anymore. They have learned how to be brave and how to have fun. They are tough. They are friends.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a letter on a bench. The letter is in a big envelope. It has a stamp and a name on it.
+
+"Who is this for?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe we can open it and see," Mia says.
+
+"No, we can't. That is not nice. We have to give it to the person who owns it," Tom says.
+
+"But how do we find them? Maybe they are far away. Maybe they don't want it anymore," Mia says.
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He has an idea.
+
+"Look, there is a mailbox over there. We can put the letter in the mailbox. Then the mailman will take it and give it to the right person," he says.
+
+"Okay, that sounds good. Let's do that," Mia says.
+
+They run to the mailbox. They are ready to put the letter in. But then, a big dog comes out of nowhere. The dog barks and jumps on them. The dog wants to play. But the dog also wants the letter. The dog grabs the letter with its teeth and runs away.
+
+"Hey, stop! Give it back! That is not yours!" Tom and Mia shout.
+
+They chase the dog. But the dog is faster. The dog tears the letter apart. The letter is spoiled. Tom and Mia are sad. They don't know what to do.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom. I should have listened to you. We should not have touched the letter," Mia says.
+
+"It's okay, Mia. It's not your fault. The dog was bad. Maybe we can find the person who wrote the letter and say sorry," Tom says.
+
+They look around. They see a lady sitting on another bench. She is crying. She has a picture in her hand. It is the same picture that was in the letter.
+
+"Maybe that is her. Maybe she wrote the letter," Mia says.
+
+"Let's go and talk to her," Tom says.
+
+They walk to the lady. They are shy. They don't know what to say.
+
+"Excuse me, miss. Is this your letter?" Tom asks, holding the pieces of the letter.
+
+The lady looks at them. She sees the letter. She gasps.
+
+"Yes, yes, it is. Where did you find it? How did you get it?" she asks.
+
+"We found it on that bench. We wanted to give it to you. But a dog took it and spoiled it. We are very sorry," Mia says.
+
+The lady smiles. She wipes her tears. She hugs Tom and Mia.
+
+"Thank you, thank you, thank you. You are very kind. This letter is very important to me. It is from my son. He is in the army. He is far away. He sent me this picture of him. He said he loves me and he will come back soon. I was waiting for this letter for a long time. I was so happy when I got it. But then I dropped it and I lost it. I was so sad. I thought I would never see it again. But you found it and you brought it back to me. You made me happy again. Thank you, thank you, thank you," she says.
+
+Tom and Mia are happy too. They are glad they helped the lady. They are glad they learned a lesson. They are glad they are friends. They say goodbye to the lady. They go back to the park. They play some more. They have fun. They are good kids.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play outside on the lawn. The lawn is soft and green. They see a big toy on the lawn. It is a merry-go-round. It has four seats and a handle. They run to the toy and sit on the seats. They take turns to spin the handle. The toy goes faster and faster. They laugh and scream.
+
+"Spin more, spin more!" Anna says to Ben.
+
+"OK, OK!" Ben says to Anna. He spins the handle harder. The toy goes very fast. They feel dizzy and sick. They want to stop, but they can't. The handle is stuck. They cry and shout.
+
+"Help, help!" Anna says to Ben.
+
+"Help, help!" Ben says to Anna. They look around. There is no one. They are alone on the lawn. The toy keeps spinning and spinning. They are scared and sad. They wish they never played with the toy. They wish they listened to their moms. Their moms told them not to play with the toy. The toy is broken and dangerous. The toy is not fun. The toy is bad.
+Sara was very happy. She had a new dress. It was pink and had flowers on it. She wanted to show it to her friends. She put on the dress and looked at herself in the mirror. She felt like a model.
+
+She ran outside to the playground. She saw Lily and Ben playing with a ball. She waved at them and said, "Hi, friends! Look at my new dress! Isn't it pretty?"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at Sara. They did not smile. They did not say anything. They looked at each other and whispered. Sara felt sad. She wondered why they did not like her dress.
+
+She walked over to them and said, "Do you want to play with me? I can introduce you to my dress. It is very soft and nice. You can touch it if you want."
+
+Lily and Ben shook their heads. They said, "No, thank you. We don't want to play with you. Your dress is too big for you. It does not fit you. You look silly. You are not a model. You are a clown."
+
+Sara felt hurt. She felt tears in her eyes. She said, "That is not nice. You are mean. My dress is not too big. It is perfect. I am not a clown. I am a model. You are not my friends. You are bullies."
+
+She ran away from them. She saw Mia and Sam sitting on a bench. They were reading a book. They looked up and saw Sara. They smiled and said, "Hi, Sara! What a beautiful dress you have! It is so pink and flowery. You look like a model."
+
+Sara felt happy. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Mia and Sam. You are very kind. Do you want to play with me? I can introduce you to my dress. It is very soft and nice. You can touch it if you want."
+
+Mia and Sam nodded. They said, "Yes, please. We would love to play with you. Your dress is very fit for you. You are not a clown. You are a model. You are our friend. You are awesome."
+
+Sara felt joy. She hugged them and said, "Thank you, Mia and Sam. You are very sweet. You are my friends. You are awesome too."
+
+They played together and had fun. They forgot about Lily and Ben. They did not care what they said. They knew they were wrong. They knew Sara was a model. And so was her dress.
+Lily and her mom were at the cafe. Lily liked to look at the pictures on the wall and the cakes in the glass. She saw a big cup of coffee on a table near her. She wanted to touch it.
+
+"Mom, can I touch the coffee?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, Lily, the coffee is very hot. It can hurt you if you touch it. You can touch your juice instead." Mom said.
+
+Lily was sad. She liked to touch new things. She saw a lady sitting next to the coffee. The lady had a kind face and a nice hat. Lily smiled at her.
+
+"Hello, little girl. Do you like my hat?" The lady asked.
+
+"Yes, it is pretty. Can I touch it?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, you can touch it. It is soft and warm." The lady said. She took off her hat and gave it to Lily. Lily touched it gently. It felt nice.
+
+"Thank you. You are very compassionate." Lily said.
+
+"You are very welcome. You are very polite." The lady said. She put her hat back on and smiled.
+
+Lily was happy. She made a new friend. She gave the lady a hug and went back to her mom. She did not want to touch the coffee anymore. She wanted to drink her juice and eat her cake.
+Anna and Ben like to go for walks with their dog Spot. Spot is a big, brown dog who likes to run and play. One day, they go to the park with their mom and dad. There is a long trail in the park that goes through the trees and by the lake.
+
+"Can we go on the trail, mom?" Anna asks.
+
+"Sure, but you have to stay close to us and Spot, okay?" mom says.
+
+"Okay!" Anna and Ben say.
+
+They start to walk on the trail, looking at the birds and the flowers. Spot runs ahead, but he always comes back when mom calls him. Anna and Ben have fun picking up sticks and stones and throwing them in the lake.
+
+But then, they see something that makes them stop. It is a big, white animal with long ears and a fluffy tail. It is a rabbit!
+
+"Look, a rabbit!" Ben says.
+
+"Wow, it is so pale!" Anna says.
+
+They want to go closer to the rabbit, but mom says, "No, stay here. The rabbit is scared of people and dogs. We have to be quiet and let it be."
+
+Anna and Ben nod, but they are curious. They watch the rabbit as it nibbles on some grass. It looks so soft and cute. They wish they could pet it.
+
+Spot sees the rabbit too. He barks and runs towards it. The rabbit hears him and jumps away. It runs into the trees and disappears.
+
+"Spot, no!" mom says. "Come back here!"
+
+Spot comes back, wagging his tail. He does not understand why mom is angry. He just wanted to play with the rabbit.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They wanted to see the rabbit more. They hope it is okay.
+
+"Maybe we will see it again another day," dad says. "But we have to be careful and respectful of the animals in the park. They have their own homes and families, just like us."
+
+Anna and Ben agree. They love the park and the trail and the animals. They want to be good to them. They hug Spot and say sorry. Spot licks their faces and wags his tail. He loves them too. They finish their walk and go home, happy and tired.
+Tom and Mia were at the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. They saw many fish and shells and crabs. They were very happy.
+
+One day, they saw something shiny and wobbly in the water. It looked like a balloon. Tom wanted to touch it. He ran to the water and reached for it. Mia followed him.
+
+"Tom, wait!" Mia said. "That is not a balloon. That is a jellyfish. It can hurt you. Mom and dad told us to stay away from them."
+
+But Tom did not listen. He grabbed the jellyfish with his hand. He felt a sharp pain. He screamed and let go. He ran back to the sand. His hand was red and swollen. He cried and cried.
+
+Mia ran to him and hugged him. She felt sorry for him. She called mom and dad. They came and took care of Tom. They put some cream on his hand and gave him some water. They told him to be careful and listen to Mia next time.
+
+Tom felt better after a while. He said sorry to Mia. He said he was silly and dizzy. He said he learned his lesson. He said he would not touch jellyfish again. He said he loved Mia. Mia smiled and said she loved him too. They hugged and kissed. They were happy again.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big truck near the swings. The truck has many packages. Some are big, some are small. Some are red, some are blue.
+
+"What is in the packages?" Anna asks.
+
+"Let's go and see," Ben says.
+
+They run to the truck. They see a man with a hat. He is putting the packages on a cart.
+
+"Hello, man," Anna says. "What is in the packages?"
+
+"Hello, kids," the man says. "These are gifts for the children's hospital. They have toys and books and candy."
+
+"Wow, that is nice," Ben says. "Can we help you?"
+
+"Sure, you can help me," the man says. "You can gather some packages and put them on the cart. But be careful, they are heavy."
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They gather some packages and put them on the cart. They work hard. They are strong.
+
+"Thank you, kids," the man says. "You are very helpful. Do you want a reward?"
+
+"Yes, please," Anna and Ben say.
+
+The man gives them each a small package. They open it. Inside, there is a sweet chocolate bar.
+
+"Yummy, thank you, man," Anna and Ben say.
+
+"You are welcome, kids," the man says. "Enjoy your sweet treat. And thank you for helping me."
+
+Anna and Ben smile. They eat their chocolate bars. They are sweet and delicious. They are happy. They have done a good thing. They have helped the man and the children. They are good friends.
+Ben likes to watch cartoons on TV. He sees funny animals and people do silly things. He laughs and claps his hands. Sometimes he sees scary things, like big monsters or bad guys. He hides behind his pillow and waits for them to go away.
+
+One day, Ben sees a new cartoon. It is about a boy who has a rocket. The boy flies to the moon and sees aliens. Ben thinks the rocket is cool and the aliens are funny. He wants to have a rocket too. He looks around his room and sees his toy car. He thinks he can make a rocket with his toy car.
+
+He gets some paper and tape and sticks them to his toy car. He makes a cone for the nose and wings for the sides. He draws windows and buttons with his crayons. He thinks his rocket is ready. He puts it on the floor and sits inside. He pretends to push the buttons and make noises. He says, "Blast off!"
+
+He imagines he is flying to the moon. He sees stars and planets. He sees a big cheese moon. He sees green aliens with antennas. He says hello to them and they wave back. He thinks he is having fun.
+
+But he does not see his mom. She is in the kitchen and she smells smoke. She runs to the living room and sees Ben's rocket. She sees that he used paper and tape and crayons. She sees that he put his toy car on the heater. She sees that his rocket is on fire. She screams and grabs Ben. She takes him out of the rocket and puts out the fire. She hugs him and says, "Ben, you are safe. But you did a very dangerous thing. You could have burned yourself or the house. You should never play with fire or put things on the heater. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben is scared and sorry. He sees his mom is angry and worried. He sees his rocket is burned and ruined. He sees he did a bad thing. He says, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to go to the moon. I saw it on the cartoon. It looked fun."
+
+Mom says, "I know, Ben. But cartoons are not real. They are just stories and pictures. They can be fun to watch, but you should not try to do what they do. They can be dangerous and hurt you or others. You should always ask me or dad before you make something or play with something. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben nods and says, "I understand, mom. I won't do it again. I love you, mom."
+
+Mom says, "I love you too, Ben. Now let's go and have some cookies and milk. And maybe we can watch a different cartoon. One that is not so dangerous."
+Sara and Ben went to church with Mom and Dad. They liked to sing and pray with the people. They also liked to listen to the stories that the pastor told. He talked about God and Jesus and how they loved everyone.
+
+One day, the pastor told a story about a poor man who had no home and no food. He said that God wanted them to help the poor man and share what they had. He asked the people to give some money or food or clothes to the poor man. He said that God would be happy and bless them.
+
+Sara and Ben felt sad for the poor man. They wanted to help him. They looked at what they had. Sara had a doll that she loved very much. Ben had a car that he played with every day. They thought for a moment. Then they decided to give their toys to the poor man. They hoped that he would like them and feel better.
+
+They walked to the front of the church and put their toys in a big box. The pastor saw them and smiled. He said, "Thank you, Sara and Ben. You are very kind and generous. You have given the poor man a gift of love. You have made God happy and proud."
+
+The people in the church saw what Sara and Ben did. They were touched by their kindness. They clapped their hands and cheered for them. Sara and Ben felt happy and warm. They hugged Mom and Dad and thanked God. They learned that it is better to give than to receive.
+One day, Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They had a big tub of water and some toys. They liked to make waves and splash each other. They also liked to pretend they were pirates and mermaids.
+
+But then, Lily had an idea. She wanted to make a bigger wave. She saw the hose and turned it on. She let the water run into the tub. She thought it was fun. But Ben did not like it. He said, "Stop, Lily! The tub is too full. The water will spill out and make a flood."
+
+Lily did not listen. She kept the hose on. She said, "No, Ben! It is more fun this way. Look, the water is like a river. We can sail our boat on it." She put her toy boat in the tub and pushed it.
+
+But Ben was right. The water spilled out of the tub and onto the grass. It made a big puddle. The puddle got bigger and bigger. It reached the flowers and the swing. It reached the door and the steps. It reached Lily and Ben's feet.
+
+Lily and Ben were wet and cold. They felt uncomfortable. They did not like the flood. They wished they had listened to Ben. They turned off the hose and ran inside. They hoped their mom would not be mad. They learned their lesson. They decided to play with less water next time.
+Sam was a little boy who liked to watch television. He liked to watch cartoons and songs and animals. He watched television every day after school and before bed.
+
+One day, his mom said, "Sam, you watch too much television. You need to play outside and read books and do homework. Television is not good for your eyes and your brain."
+
+But Sam did not want to stop watching television. He said, "No, mom, I want to watch television. Television is fun and I learn a lot. Please, mom, let me watch television."
+
+He insisted on watching television. He cried and shouted and stomped his feet. He did not listen to his mom. He was very stubborn and rude.
+
+His mom was very angry and sad. She said, "Sam, you are being naughty and selfish. You do not respect me and you do not care about your health. If you do not stop watching television, I will take it away and you will have no television for a week."
+
+Sam did not believe his mom. He thought she was bluffing. He said, "You will not take away my television. You love me and you want me to be happy. Television makes me happy. You cannot take away my happiness."
+
+He was wrong. His mom was serious. She took away his television and put it in the closet. She locked the closet and hid the key. She said, "Sam, you have no television for a week. You will only watch television when you are good and when you do your chores and your homework. You will also play outside and read books and do other things. Maybe then you will appreciate television more and use it wisely."
+
+Sam was very sad and sorry. He realized he had made a mistake. He had hurt his mom and himself. He had missed out on many things. He said, "Mom, I am sorry. I was wrong. I was naughty and selfish. I did not respect you and I did not care about my health. I watched too much television and I wasted my time. Please, mom, forgive me and give me another chance."
+
+His mom hugged him and said, "Sam, I forgive you. I love you and I want you to be happy. But I also want you to be healthy and smart and kind. Television is not bad, but too much of anything is bad. You need to balance your time and your activities. You need to listen to me and follow the rules. You need to be good and polite and helpful. Then you will have television and other things too."
+
+Sam nodded and said, "Thank you, mom. I understand. I will be good and I will do what you say. I will watch less television and I will do more things. I will be happy and you will be happy too."
+
+His mom smiled and said, "That's my boy. I am proud of you. Now, let's go outside and play. Maybe later we can watch some television together, but only for a little while."
+Sara and Tom like to play with their ball. They kick the ball to each other and have fun. They make a rhythm with their feet and the ball. Kick, kick, kick, they go.
+
+One day, a grumpy dog comes to their yard. He sees the ball and wants it. He runs to the ball and bites it. Pop! The ball is broken. Sara and Tom are sad. They cry and shout at the dog.
+
+"Bad dog! Go away! You broke our ball!" they say.
+
+The dog growls and barks at them. He does not care. He likes to break things. He is very grumpy.
+
+Sara and Tom run to their mom. They tell her what happened. Mom hugs them and says, "Don't worry, my loves. I have a surprise for you. Come with me."
+
+She takes them to the garage and shows them a new ball. It is bigger and brighter than the old one. Sara and Tom are happy. They thank their mom and hug her.
+
+They take the new ball and go back to their yard. They kick the ball to each other and have fun. They make a rhythm with their feet and the ball. Kick, kick, kick, they go.
+
+The grumpy dog sees them and tries to get the ball. But the ball is too big for his mouth. He cannot bite it. He is angry and frustrated. He goes away and leaves them alone.
+
+Sara and Tom smile and laugh. They are not afraid of the grumpy dog. They have a new ball and each other. They are happy.
+Ben and Mia liked to play in the sand. They had a spade, a bucket and some shells. They made a big castle with a moat and a bridge. They were very proud of their castle.
+
+"Look at our castle, it is so fine!" Mia said.
+
+"Yes, it is the best castle ever!" Ben agreed.
+
+They saw a big bird in the sky. It had black and white feathers and a long beak. It was a seagull. It was looking for food.
+
+"Wow, look at that bird, it can soar so high!" Ben said.
+
+"Yes, it is very fast and strong!" Mia said.
+
+They did not know that the bird was hungry and curious. It saw their castle and flew down to see what it was. It landed on the bridge and pecked at the sand. It made a hole in the bridge.
+
+"Hey, stop that, you are ruining our castle!" Ben shouted.
+
+"Go away, you are a bad bird!" Mia cried.
+
+But the bird did not listen. It pecked at the shells and the bucket. It knocked them over and broke them. It made a mess of their castle.
+
+Ben and Mia were very sad and angry. They picked up their spade and ran after the bird. They tried to hit it and scare it away. But the bird was too quick and clever. It flew away and soared high in the sky. It laughed at them and made a loud noise.
+
+"Ha ha ha, you can't catch me, I am the king of the sky!" the bird said.
+
+Ben and Mia looked at their ruined castle and felt very bad. They wished they had a bigger spade or a net to catch the bird. They learned a lesson that day. They learned that some birds are not nice and that they should protect their castle better. They decided to make a new castle the next day, but this time, they would make it stronger and safer. They hoped the bird would not come back.
+Ben and Amy are twins. They like to help Mom in the kitchen. Mom is deaf, but she can talk with her hands. She can also read lips and write notes.
+
+One day, Mom wants to make a cake. She gets a big bowl, some eggs, some flour, some sugar, and some butter. She also gets a mixer. A mixer is a thing that can make things smooth and fluffy.
+
+Mom shows Ben and Amy how to use the mixer. She says, "Be careful, the mixer is loud and fast. You have to hold it tight and not touch the blades. They can hurt you." She puts the mixer in the bowl and turns it on. It makes a loud noise. Ben and Amy cover their ears. Mom smiles and signs, "It's OK, I can't hear it."
+
+Mom lets Ben and Amy take turns with the mixer. They have fun making the cake batter. They add some chocolate chips and some sprinkles. Mom says, "Good job, you are very good helpers. You are learning how to bake. I am teaching you."
+
+Mom pours the batter into a pan and puts it in the oven. She sets a timer. She says, "Now we have to wait for the cake to bake. It will take some time. Do you want to play a game while we wait?" Ben and Amy nod. They love to play games with Mom. She always makes them laugh. They are happy to have a deaf mom who can teach them many things.
+Lily and Tom are playing with blocks. They like to build towers and houses and cars. Lily has a lot of red blocks and Tom has a lot of blue blocks. They share some blocks with each other.
+
+"Look, I made a big tower!" Lily says. She puts a yellow block on the top of her tower. "This is the tip. It is shiny and bright."
+
+"That is a nice tower, Lily," Tom says. "But I can make a bigger tower." He puts more and more blue blocks on his tower. He tries to find a yellow block for the tip, but he cannot see any.
+
+"Can I have your yellow block, Lily?" Tom asks. "Please?"
+
+"No, Tom," Lily says. "This is my yellow block. I like it. It is mine."
+
+Tom feels sad and angry. He wants a yellow block too. He thinks Lily is not fair. He pushes Lily's tower with his hand. The tower falls down and the blocks scatter on the floor. The yellow block rolls away.
+
+"Tom, why did you do that?" Lily cries. "You broke my tower! You are mean!"
+
+Tom feels sorry. He did not mean to make Lily cry. He sees the yellow block near his foot. He picks it up and gives it to Lily.
+
+"Here, Lily," Tom says. "You can have the yellow block. I am sorry I broke your tower. I was silly. Can we be friends again?"
+
+Lily looks at Tom and the yellow block. She feels happy. She likes Tom. He is her friend.
+
+"Thank you, Tom," Lily says. "You are kind. I am sorry I did not share with you. We can both have the yellow block. We can change it. You can have it first, then I can have it. OK?"
+
+"OK, Lily," Tom says. "That is a good idea. We can change it. We can build a new tower together. A bigger and better tower. With a yellow tip."
+
+Lily and Tom smile at each other. They hug and say sorry. They start to build a new tower with their blocks. They are glad they are friends again. They have fun playing with blocks.
+Jen liked to draw pictures with her crayons. She drew her family, her dog, her house and her toys. She wanted to show her pictures to her grandma, who lived far away. She asked her mom to help her put her pictures in an envelope and write her grandma's name on it. Her mom said they had to go to the post office to send the envelope. Jen was anxious. She had never been to the post office before.
+
+The next day, Jen and her mom walked to the post office. Jen held her mom's hand and looked around. She saw many people, cars, bikes and shops. She also saw a big red box with a slot on the front. Her mom said that was the post box, where they had to put the envelope. Jen was curious. She wanted to see what was inside the post box. She asked her mom if she could peek inside. Her mom said no, that was not allowed. She said they had to wait in line to buy a stamp and then put the envelope in the slot. Jen was impatient. She wanted to send her pictures to her grandma right away.
+
+Finally, it was their turn to buy a stamp. Jen watched as her mom gave some money to the lady behind the counter and got a small sticker with a picture of a flower on it. Her mom said that was the stamp, and that it showed how much it cost to send the envelope. She said they had to stick the stamp on the corner of the envelope and then put it in the post box. Jen was excited. She helped her mom stick the stamp on the envelope and then followed her to the post box. She saw her mom lift her up and let her slide the envelope in the slot. She heard a thud as the envelope fell inside the post box. She felt happy. She had sent her pictures to her grandma.
+
+Jen and her mom walked back home. Jen asked her mom when her grandma would get the envelope. Her mom said it would take a few days, but that her grandma would be very happy to see her pictures. She said her grandma would call them and tell them how much she liked them. She also said that Jen had done a very good job at the post office, and that she was very proud of her. She said Jen had improved a lot in her drawing skills, and that her pictures were very beautiful and colorful. Jen smiled. She felt proud too. She couldn't wait to hear from her grandma. She hoped her grandma would like her pictures as much as she did.

+
+"Look, Tom, a vine!" Lily said. "It is so pretty and green!"
+
+"Yes, it is, Lily," Tom said. "Do you want to touch it?"
+
+They ran to the vine and reached out their hands. But they heard a loud noise. It was a car. It arrived in front of the house. It was their mom and dad. They came back from work.
+
+"Mom! Dad!" Tom and Lily shouted. They let go of the vine and ran to the car. They hugged their mom and dad.
+
+"Hello, my sweeties," Mom said. "We missed you so much. How was your day?"
+
+"We had fun, Mom," Lily said. "We played in the garden. We saw a green vine. It was so pretty."
+
+"We are glad you had fun, Lily," Dad said. "But be careful with the vine. It might have thorns or bugs. You don't want to hurt yourself."
+
+"Okay, Dad," Tom said. "We will be careful. Can we show you the vine?"
+
+"Of course, Tom," Mom said. "Let's go see the vine together."
+
+They all walked to the garden. They looked at the vine. It was still green and pretty. They smiled and held hands. They were happy.
+Ben liked to play with marbles. He had many marbles of different colors and sizes. He kept them in a big jar in his room. Sometimes he played with them by himself, and sometimes he played with his friends.
+
+One day, he saw a new marble in the store. It was very big and shiny. It had many colors inside, like a rainbow. Ben wanted the marble very much. He asked his mom if he could have it. His mom said it was too expensive. She said he had to pay a lot of money for it.
+
+Ben was sad. He did not have a lot of money. He only had some coins in his piggy bank. He wondered how he could get the marble. He thought of a plan. He decided to sell some of his old marbles to his friends. He hoped they would like them and pay him some money.
+
+He took his jar of marbles and went to the park. He saw his friends playing there. He showed them his marbles and asked them if they wanted to buy some. His friends liked his marbles. They said they were pretty and fun. They gave him some money for them. Ben was happy. He counted his money. He had enough to buy the new marble.
+
+He ran back to the store with his money. He asked the man at the counter for the big shiny marble. The man smiled and gave it to him. He said it was a very special marble. He said it was ancient. He said it was very old and came from a faraway land. He said it had a story inside. Ben did not understand what he meant. He did not care. He only cared that he had the marble. He thanked the man and left.
+
+He went home with his new marble. He put it in his jar with his other marbles. He looked at it and felt proud. He wondered what story it had inside. He decided to make up his own story.

+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to look for pebbles and make shapes with them. Lily found a big pebble that was round and smooth. She showed it to Ben and said, "Look, I found a ball!"
+
+Ben was happy and said, "Let me see!" He took the pebble from Lily and threw it in the air. He wanted to catch it, but he missed. The pebble fell on the ground and broke into two pieces.
+
+Lily was sad and said, "Ben, you broke my ball! Why did you do that?"
+
+Ben was sorry and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to break it. I wanted to play with it. Can we still be friends?"
+
+Lily looked at the broken pebble and said, "Yes, we can still be friends. But next time, be careful with my things. And maybe we can find another pebble that is not broken."
+
+Ben nodded and said, "OK, Lily. I will be careful. And maybe we can glue the pebble back together. Or we can make a heart with the two pieces."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "That's a good idea, Ben. Let's do that. Come on, let's look for more pebbles and have fun."
+Anna and Ben were playing in the attic. They liked to look at the old things that their grandma kept there. They found a big box full of clothes and hats and shoes. They decided to try them on and pretend to be different people.
+
+Anna put on a long dress and a hat with feathers. She felt like a princess. Ben put on a coat and a hat with a hole. He felt like a detective. They looked at each other and laughed.
+
+"Who are you?" Anna asked Ben.
+
+"I am a detective and I am looking for clues," Ben said. "Who are you?"
+
+"I am a princess and I am going to a ball," Anna said.
+
+They played for a while, making up stories and having fun. Then they heard a noise. It was their grandma calling them for lunch.
+
+"Come on, let's go," Ben said. "We can play more later."
+
+They took off the clothes and put them back in the box. But Anna forgot to take off her hat. She ran after Ben, holding her dress.
+
+As they were going down the stairs, Anna felt something tickle her face. She looked up and saw a big cobweb on her hat. She screamed and threw the hat away.
+
+"Yuck, yuck, yuck!" she cried. "There is a cobweb on my hat!"
+
+Ben turned around and saw the hat on the floor. He also saw the cobweb. He felt uncomfortable. He did not like cobwebs either.
+
+"Sorry, Anna," he said. "I did not see the cobweb. Are you okay?"
+
+Anna nodded. She wiped her face with her hand. She did not want to wear the hat anymore.
+
+"It's okay, Ben," she said. "Let's go to lunch. Maybe grandma has cookies."
+
+They ran to the kitchen, leaving the hat and the cobweb behind. They hoped that grandma would not be angry. They also hoped that there were no more cobwebs in the attic.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to make sand castles and dig holes. They had a big bucket and a small shovel. They were having fun.
+
+But then a big boy came. He was older and taller than them. He had a mean face and a loud voice. He kicked their sand castles and threw their bucket away. He said, "You are too little to play here. This is my park. Go away!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared and sad. They did not know what to do. They wanted to play, but the big boy was mean. They looked for help.
+
+They saw a lady sitting on a bench. She had a nice smile and a book. She was a judge. She worked in a big building where she helped people with problems. She saw Lily and Ben and waved to them. She said, "Hello, children. What are you doing?"
+
+Lily and Ben ran to the lady. They told her what happened. They said, "The big boy is mean. He kicked our sand castles and threw our bucket. He said we are too little to play here. He made us sad."
+
+The lady frowned. She said, "That is not nice. That is not fair. Everyone can play in the park. The big boy should not be mean. He should be sorry. Let me talk to him."
+
+The lady got up and walked to the big boy. She said, "Hello, young man. I am a judge. I saw what you did. Why did you do that?"
+
+The big boy looked at the lady. He was not scared. He was rude. He said, "I don't care who you are. This is my park. I can do what I want. You can't tell me what to do. Go away!"
+
+The lady shook her head. She said, "That is not true. This is not your park. This is a public park. You have to share it with others. You can't do what you want. You have to follow the rules. You can't be mean to other children. You have to be kind and respectful. You have to say sorry to Lily and Ben. And you have to give them back their bucket."
+
+The big boy snorted. He said, "No, I won't. You can't make me. You are not my mom. You are not my boss. You are just a lady with a book. You are dirty. Your book is dirty. Your clothes are dirty. Your hair is dirty. You are dirty!"
+
+The lady gasped. She said, "That is very rude. That is very wrong. You are not only mean, you are also lying. I am not dirty. My book is not dirty. My clothes are not dirty. My hair is not dirty. You are dirty. Your shoes are dirty. Your pants are dirty. Your shirt is dirty. Your hands are dirty. Your face is dirty. You are dirty!"
+
+The big boy looked at himself. He saw that he was dirty. He had mud and sand and grass on him. He felt ashamed. He said, "I am sorry. I was mean. I was rude. I was lying. I will say sorry to Lily and Ben. I will give them back their bucket. I will be nice. I will share. I will follow the rules. I will be clean."
+
+The lady smiled. She said, "That is good. That is what you should do. That is what a judge does. A judge helps people with problems. A judge tells the truth. A judge is fair. A judge is kind. A judge is respectful. A judge is clean."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled too. They said, "Thank you, judge. You are nice. You are smart. You are helpful. You are fair. You are kind. You are respectful. You are clean."
+
+The judge hugged them. She said, "You are welcome, children. You are nice too. You are brave. You are honest. You are friendly. You are fun. You are clean."
+
+They all walked back to the sand pit. They played together. They made new sand castles. They dug new holes. They had fun. They waved to each other. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to make mud pies and pretend they were chefs. They used old pots and pans and spoons and forks that their mum did not need anymore.
+
+"Look, Lily, I made a big mud pie for you!" Tom said. He held a pan with a brown lump of mud in it. "It is very yummy!"
+
+"Thank you, Tom!" Lily said. She held a fork and pretended to eat the mud pie. "It is very yummy indeed!"
+
+They heard their mum calling them from the house. "Tom, Lily, come inside! It is time to get tidy and have a snack!"
+
+Tom and Lily ran to the house. They left their pots and pans and spoons and forks in the garden. They did not see that one of the pans was very shiny and had a wire attached to it. It was not a pan, but an iron that their mum used to make clothes smooth.
+
+Their mum was waiting for them in the kitchen. She had a plate of cookies and a jug of milk for them. She smiled when she saw them. "You look very dirty, but very happy!" she said. "But before you have a snack, you need to wash your hands and faces."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They went to the bathroom and turned on the tap. They washed their hands and faces with soap and water. They dried them with a towel. They looked very tidy.
+
+They went back to the kitchen and sat at the table. They ate the cookies and drank the milk. They thanked their mum for the snack.
+
+"Can we go back to the garden and play some more?" Tom asked.
+
+"Of course you can, but be careful with the pots and pans," their mum said. "Some of them are old and rusty and might hurt you."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They ran back to the garden. They did not see that the iron was still in the garden. They did not see that the wire was plugged into a socket. They did not see that the iron was very hot. They did not see the danger.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with fire. They have a box of matches and some paper. They go to the backyard and make a small fire. They watch the fire burn the paper and make ash.
+
+"Look, Sam, the fire is mighty!" Tom says. "It is red and yellow and hot!"
+
+"Yes, Tom, the fire is mighty!" Sam says. "But we have to be careful. Fire can hurt us and Mom and Dad."
+
+They hear Mom call them from the kitchen. "Tom! Sam! Come inside! It is time for lunch!"
+
+Tom and Sam run to the kitchen. They leave the fire and the ash in the backyard. They do not know that the wind is blowing. The wind makes the fire bigger and bigger. The fire catches the grass and the fence.
+
+Mom sees the fire from the window. She screams. "Tom! Sam! What have you done? The backyard is on fire!"
+
+Tom and Sam are scared. They cry. They are sorry. They did not mean to make a big fire.
+
+Mom calls the firemen. The firemen come with a big truck and a hose. They give water to the fire. They make the fire smaller and smaller. They stop the fire.
+
+The firemen are angry. They talk to Mom and Tom and Sam. They tell them that fire is dangerous. They tell them that they should never play with fire. They tell them that they could have burned the house and hurt themselves and others.
+
+Tom and Sam nod. They understand. They say sorry to Mom and the firemen. They promise to never play with fire again.
+
+Mom hugs Tom and Sam. She is glad that they are safe. She is sad that the backyard is burned. She sees the ash on the ground. She sighs. She has a lot of work to do.
+Tom and Lily were twins who loved to play with their puppy, Spot. Spot was a small, brown dog who liked to run, jump and lick. One day, Tom and Lily found a big ball in the backyard. They wanted to play with it, but they could not agree on who would go first.
+
+"I saw it first, so I should play with it first!" Tom said.
+
+"No, I saw it first, so I should play with it first!" Lily said.
+
+They both tried to reach for the ball, but they pulled too hard and the ball popped. They heard a loud noise and saw air coming out of the ball. They were sad and angry.
+
+"Look what you did! You broke the ball!" Tom said.
+
+"No, you did! You pulled too hard!" Lily said.
+
+They started to cry and yell at each other. Spot heard them and came to see what was wrong. He saw the broken ball and the sad twins. He wanted to help them, so he brought them his favorite toy, a squeaky bone. He wagged his tail and dropped the bone in front of them.
+
+"Look, Spot wants to share his toy with us!" Tom said.
+
+"He is so nice and kind!" Lily said.
+
+They stopped crying and yelling and smiled at Spot. They thanked him and took turns playing with the bone. They also hugged and said sorry to each other.
+
+"We should be like Spot and share our toys. That is fair and fun!" Tom said.
+
+"Yes, you are right. Sharing is caring!" Lily said.
+
+They learned a lesson that day. They learned that fighting over toys is not good, and that sharing with others is better. They also learned that Spot was a good friend who loved them very much. They played happily with Spot and the bone, and forgot about the broken ball.
+Sara and Ben are playing hide and seek in the park. Sara is the seeker and Ben is the hider. Sara counts to ten and then opens her eyes. She looks around and tries to find Ben.
+
+"Where are you, Ben?" she calls out. "I will find you!"
+
+She walks around the trees and the swings and the slide. She does not see Ben. She thinks he is very good at hiding. She starts to feel a little sad. She wants to find Ben and play with him.
+
+She hears a giggle behind a bush. She runs to the bush and pushes the leaves aside. She sees Ben hiding there. He smiles at her.
+
+"Boo!" he says. "You found me, Sara!"
+
+Sara is happy. She hugs Ben and says, "You are a very good hider, Ben. But I am a good seeker. I found you!"
+
+Ben hugs her back and says, "You are a good seeker, Sara. And a good friend. I like playing with you!"
+
+They are both happy. They have a good result. They are calm and nice to each other. They decide to play again. They take turns being the seeker and the hider. They have fun in the park.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big bird with red and yellow wings. The bird is on a tree.
+
+"Wow, look at the bird!" Lily says. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Yes, it is!" Ben says. "Do you think it can talk?"
+
+They go closer to the tree. They say hello to the bird. The bird looks at them and says:
+
+"Hello, little ones. I am a parrot. I can talk and sing. Do you want to hear me?"
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They nod and say yes. The parrot sings a funny song. It makes them laugh.
+
+"You are a smart bird!" Lily says. "Can you teach us your song?"
+
+"Sure, I can!" the parrot says. "But you have to do something for me first."
+
+"What is it?" Ben asks.
+
+The parrot says: "You have to part my wings and tickle me. It makes me happy."
+
+Lily and Ben think it is a fun game. They part the parrot's wings and tickle it. The parrot giggles and says thank you.
+
+"OK, now I will teach you my song!" the parrot says. "Repeat after me: I am a parrot, I have a carrot, I like to share it, with my friends who care it!"
+
+Lily and Ben repeat the song. They learn it quickly. They sing it with the parrot. They have a lot of fun. They make a new friend.
+Lily and Sam were very happy. Today was the day of the big parade. They put on their pink hats and coats and went outside with Mom and Dad. They walked to the park where the parade would start.
+
+"Look, Lily, look!" Sam said. "There are so many people and flags and balloons!"
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She saw a big truck with a loud horn. She saw a band with drums and trumpets. She saw clowns with funny noses and shoes. She saw animals with feathers and fur. She blinked her eyes. She wanted to see everything.
+
+"Wow, Sam, wow!" Lily said. "There are so many colors and sounds and shapes!"
+
+Sam nodded and clapped. He saw a fire engine with a siren. He saw a float with flowers and candy. He saw dancers with dresses and hats. He saw a lion with a mane and a roar. He blinked his eyes. He wanted to hear everything.
+
+Mom and Dad held their hands and watched the parade with them. They laughed and cheered and waved. They were very proud of Lily and Sam. They blinked their eyes. They wanted to remember everything.
+Tom and Mia were playing in the park. They saw a big dog with black fur and yellow eyes. The dog was not on a leash. It was running and barking. It seemed wild and hungry.
+
+"Look, a doggy!" Mia said. She liked dogs. She wanted to pet the dog.
+
+"No, Mia, don't!" Tom said. He was scared of the dog. He thought the dog would bite them. He grabbed Mia's hand and tried to run away.
+
+But the dog was faster. It chased Tom and Mia. It caught up with them. It jumped on Mia and knocked her down. It bit her arm. Mia screamed.
+
+Tom cried for help. He kicked the dog. But the dog was strong. It did not let go of Mia. It bit her harder.
+
+No one came to help Tom and Mia. The dog hurt them very much. They could not get away. They were very sad and scared. The dog was very bad. The end.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play together. Sometimes they play with cars, sometimes they play with blocks, sometimes they play with animals. But their favorite game is to scare each other.
+
+One day, they are playing with animals in their room. Tim has a lion, Sam has a monkey. They make noises and pretend to be in the jungle. Tim says, "Roar! I am a big lion. I will scare you, monkey!" Sam says, "Ooh-ooh! I am a fast monkey. You cannot scare me, lion!"
+
+They chase each other around the room, laughing and having fun. Then they hear their mom calling them. She says, "Boys, it is time for your nap. Come downstairs and have some milk and cookies." Tim and Sam say, "Okay, mom. We are coming."
+
+They put their animals away and go downstairs. They have some milk and cookies and hug their mom. She says, "You are good boys. Now go to your beds and have a nice nap. I will wake you up later." Tim and Sam say, "Okay, mom. We love you."
+
+They go to their beds and lie down. They are tired from playing. They close their eyes and start to fall asleep. But Tim has an idea. He thinks, "I will scare Sam. I will wait until he is asleep and then I will roar like a lion. He will be so scared. It will be funny."
+
+He opens his eyes and looks at Sam. Sam is snoring softly. He is asleep. Tim smiles and gets out of his bed. He tiptoes to Sam's bed. He is very quiet. He bends over Sam and opens his mouth. He is ready to roar.
+
+But before he can roar, Sam opens his eyes and says, "Boo!" He scares Tim. Tim jumps back and screams. He is so scared. He did not know Sam was awake. Sam laughs and says, "I scared you, lion. I was pretending to sleep. I knew you wanted to scare me. It is not funny."
+
+Tim feels silly and sorry. He says, "I am sorry, Sam. I was trying to be funny. I did not mean to scare you. You are a smart monkey. You tricked me." Sam says, "It is okay, Tim. I forgive you. But do not scare me again. It is not nice."
+
+They hug and say, "I love you, brother." They go back to their beds and cuddle with their animals. They are not scared anymore. They are happy. They fall asleep and have sweet dreams.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their toy cars. They liked to make roads and bridges with the sand and the sticks. They also liked to dig holes and tunnels with their shovels. They pretended that their cars were going on adventures underground.
+
+One day, they found a big hole under a tree. They wondered what was inside. They decided to explore it with their cars. They put their cars in the hole and pushed them deeper and deeper. They could not see their cars anymore, but they could hear them bumping and scraping.
+
+"Wow, this is fun!" said Lily. "Maybe we will find treasure or dinosaurs!"
+
+"Or maybe we will find a monster!" said Ben. "A big, grumpy monster that will eat our cars!"
+
+Lily and Ben got scared. They did not want to lose their cars. They did not want to meet a monster. They pulled their shovels out of the hole and tried to get their cars back. But they could not reach them. They were too far away.
+
+Lily and Ben started to cry. They wished they had not put their cars in the hole. They wished they had listened to their mom, who told them not to dig too deep. They did not know what to do.
+
+Then, Lily had an idea. She remembered what her grandma had taught her. She said to Ben, "Let's pray. Let's ask God to help us get our cars back. God can do anything. He can hear us even underground."
+
+Ben nodded. He wiped his tears and held Lily's hand. They closed their eyes and prayed. They asked God to please send their cars back to them. They said they were sorry for being naughty. They said they loved God and their cars.
+
+They waited for a while. Then, they heard a sound. It was their cars! They saw their cars coming out of the hole, one by one. They were dirty and scratched, but they were still working. Lily and Ben were so happy. They hugged their cars and thanked God.
+
+They learned their lesson. They never put their cars in the hole again. They played with them on the ground, where they could see them and keep them safe. They also prayed every day, to thank God for his love and help. They knew that God was always with them, even underground.
+Lily and Ben wanted to bake a cake for Mom's birthday. They asked Dad to help them. Dad said yes, but he was busy with work. He told them to wait for him in the kitchen.
+
+Lily and Ben did not want to wait. They were stubborn. They thought they could bake the cake by themselves. They found a big bowl, some eggs, some flour, some sugar, and some milk. They mixed everything together. They did not measure anything. They made a big mess.
+
+They poured the batter into a pan. They put the pan in the oven. They turned the oven on. They did not know how long to bake the cake. They decided to watch the sun. When the sun moved a little, they thought the cake was done.
+
+They opened the oven. They saw a big, black, smelly cake. It was burned. They were sad. They heard Dad coming. They hid the cake under a towel.
+
+Dad came into the kitchen. He saw the mess. He smelled the smoke. He lifted the towel. He saw the cake. He was not angry. He was surprised. He smiled.
+
+He said, "What is this?"
+
+Lily and Ben said, "We wanted to bake a cake for Mom. But we did not wait for you. We were stubborn. We are sorry."
+
+Dad said, "It's okay. I'm proud of you for trying. But next time, please wait for me. Baking is not easy. You need to follow a recipe. And you need to use a timer. The sun is not a good clock."
+
+Lily and Ben said, "We understand. We love you, Dad. Can we still make a cake for Mom?"
+
+Dad said, "Of course. We can make a new cake together. And we can decorate it with frosting and sprinkles. Mom will love it. And she will love you more."
+
+Lily and Ben hugged Dad. They cleaned up the mess. They made a new cake. It was yummy. Mom was happy. They had a great birthday party.
+Sara and Tom were friends who liked to watch movies. They had a new movie to watch on their TV. It was about a princess and a dragon. Sara was very excited to see what would happen.
+
+But Tom had already seen the movie with his big brother. He knew how it ended. He wanted to tell Sara everything. He thought it would be fun.
+
+"Guess what?" he said. "The princess is really a witch. And the dragon is her pet. And they are bad. They want to hurt the king and the people."
+
+Sara was very sad. She did not want to know that. She wanted to watch the movie and find out for herself. She felt that Tom had spoiled the movie for her. She did not want to watch it anymore.
+
+"Why did you do that?" she asked. "You ruined the movie for me. That was not nice. That was mean."
+
+Tom felt sorry. He did not mean to make Sara sad. He thought he was being helpful. He did not know that she wanted to be surprised. He realized that he had made a mistake.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara," he said. "I was wrong. I should not have told you. I should have let you watch the movie and enjoy it. I was not compassionate. I was selfish. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Sara looked at Tom. She saw that he was sincere. She knew that he was her friend. She decided to forgive him.
+
+"It's okay, Tom," she said. "I forgive you. But next time, please don't spoil the movie for me. Let me watch it with you and share the fun. That's what friends do."
+
+Tom nodded. He hugged Sara. They decided to watch the movie anyway. They hoped that it would still be good. They learned to be more compassionate and respectful of each other's feelings. They had a happy time.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big tunnel made of wood and metal. They want to go inside and explore.
+
+"Can we go in the tunnel, Mom?" Lily asks.
+
+"Sure, but be careful and stay together," Mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben run to the tunnel. They notice it is dark and cold inside. They hear strange noises and see shadows.
+
+"Are you scared, Ben?" Lily asks.
+
+"A little bit. But we are brave, right?" Ben says.
+
+They hold hands and walk further into the tunnel. They notice a small hole in the wall. They peek through and see a bright light.
+
+"Look, Lily, there is something outside!" Ben says.
+
+They push the hole and make it bigger. They notice it is flexible and can bend. They crawl through the hole and see a beautiful garden. There are flowers, butterflies, and birds.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing!" Lily says.
+
+They play in the garden and forget about the tunnel. They notice a big slide and a swing. They have fun and laugh.
+
+"Come on, kids, it's time to go home!" Mom calls.
+
+Lily and Ben run back to the tunnel. They say goodbye to the garden and crawl through the hole. They notice the tunnel is not so scary anymore.
+
+They hug Mom and tell her about their adventure.
+
+"We found a secret garden in the tunnel, Mom!" Lily says.
+
+"That sounds wonderful, my darlings. You are very clever and flexible," Mom says.
+
+They smile and go home. They dream about the tunnel and the garden.
+Lily and Ben were very happy. They were going to see a big game at the stadium with their dad. They liked to watch the players run and kick the ball. They wore red shirts and hats to cheer for their team.
+
+When they got to the stadium, they saw many people and flags and noises. They followed their dad to their seats. They were very high up and they could see the whole field. Lily and Ben clapped and shouted when their team scored a goal.
+
+But then, a man with a brown coat and a mean face came and sat next to them. He was cheering for the other team. He had a big horn and he blew it very loud in their ears. He also said bad words and laughed at their team. Lily and Ben felt scared and sad. They did not like the man.
+
+They told their dad, but he said they had to ignore him. He said they could not move to another seat because the stadium was full. He said they had to be brave and enjoy the game.
+
+Lily and Ben tried to do that, but the man did not stop. He kept blowing his horn and saying bad words and laughing. He made them very angry. They wanted him to go away.
+
+Then, they had an idea. They saw a big cup of soda on the man's lap. They looked at each other and nodded. They waited for the right moment. When the man was blowing his horn again, they both dived and grabbed the cup. They poured the soda all over the man's head and coat. The man was shocked and wet and sticky. He dropped his horn and yelled. Lily and Ben ran away with their dad. They found another seat far from the man. They felt happy and proud. They hugged their dad and watched the rest of the game. They saw their team win and they cheered very loud. They did not hear the man anymore. They had a lot of fun.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the garden. They had a big box of toys and tools. They liked to dig and plant and make things. One day, they found a shiny stone in the dirt. It was red and sparkly. They thought it was a treasure.
+
+They wanted to make more treasures. They got a big bowl and some water. They put the shiny stone in the bowl. Then they looked for other things to mix with it. They found some leaves, some flowers, some feathers, some sand and some mud. They put them all in the bowl and stirred them with a stick.
+
+They were very happy with their treasure mix. They thought it was the most beautiful thing in the world. They wanted to show it to their mom and dad. They carried the bowl to the house. But they did not see the big rock on the path. They tripped over the rock and fell down. The bowl flew out of their hands and broke on the ground. The treasure mix spilled everywhere.
+
+Tom and Lily were very sad. They cried and cried. They thought they had lost their treasure. But then they heard a voice. It was their mom. She had seen what happened. She came to hug them and comfort them.
+
+She said, "Don't cry, my sweeties. You are very lucky. You still have your treasure. It is not in the bowl. It is in your hearts. You have the treasure of imagination and creativity. You can make anything you want with your toys and tools. And you have the treasure of love and friendship. You have each other and me and dad. Those are the best treasures in the world."
+Sara loves spaghetti. She likes to eat it with cheese and sauce. Sometimes she makes funny shapes with the noodles on her plate. She likes to pretend they are snakes or worms or letters.
+
+One night, Sara has a dream about spaghetti. She is in a big kitchen with many pots and pans. She sees a big bowl of spaghetti on the table. It is pink! Sara wonders why the spaghetti is pink. She walks to the table and smells the spaghetti. It smells like strawberries and cream.
+
+"Hello, Sara!" a voice says. Sara looks around and sees a friendly mouse. The mouse is wearing a chef hat and a apron. He is holding a spoon. "Do you want to try my pink spaghetti? I made it with love and magic!"
+
+Sara is surprised and curious. She likes mice and she likes magic. She nods and smiles. The mouse gives her a plate and a fork. Sara takes a bite of the pink spaghetti. It is sweet and soft and yummy. She likes it very much.
+
+"Thank you, Mr. Mouse!" Sara says. "Your pink spaghetti is delicious!"
+
+"You're welcome, Sara!" the mouse says. "I'm glad you like it. You can have as much as you want. This is your dream, after all!"
+
+Sara and the mouse eat and chat and laugh. They have a lot of fun. Sara thinks this is the best dream ever. She hopes she can dream of pink spaghetti again.
+Lila and Tom were hungry. They wanted to cook some fish for lunch. They took their rods and went to the stream. The stream was dirty. It had mud and trash in it. But Lila and Tom did not care. They threw their lines into the water and waited.
+
+"Look, I got one!" Tom shouted. He pulled a big fish out of the stream. It was slimy and smelly. Lila was jealous. She wanted a big fish too. She cast her line again and again. But she only caught a boot and a can.
+
+"Give me some of your fish, Tom!" Lila said. "No, it's mine!" Tom said. "You can have the boot and the can." He laughed. Lila was angry. She grabbed Tom's fish and ran away. Tom chased her. They fought and yelled.
+
+They did not see the big dog that was watching them. The dog was hungry too. It smelled the fish and ran after them. It barked and growled. Lila and Tom were scared. They dropped the fish and ran. But the dog was faster. It caught them and bit them. They cried and bled.
+
+The dog ate the fish and left. Lila and Tom were hurt and sad. They had no fish, no lunch, and no fun. They wished they had not gone to the dirty stream. They wished they had shared and been nice. But it was too late. The end.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had a big doll that she called Queen. Queen wore a shiny dress and a crown. Lily liked to lead Queen around the house and pretend they were going to a party.
+
+One day, Lily's mom said, "Lily, it's time for lunch. Come to the kitchen and eat your sandwich." Lily said, "Okay, mom. But can I bring Queen with me?" Mom said, "Sure, you can. But don't forget to wash your hands first."
+
+Lily took Queen to the bathroom and washed her hands. She also washed Queen's face and hands, because she wanted her to be clean for the party. Then she went to the kitchen and sat down at the table. Mom gave her a sandwich and a glass of milk. Lily said, "Thank you, mom. This looks yummy." She took a bite of her sandwich and gave another bite to Queen. She said, "Here, Queen. You must be hungry too."
+
+But Queen did not eat the sandwich. She just stared at Lily with her big eyes. Lily said, "Queen, why don't you eat? Don't you like the sandwich?" She tried to push the sandwich into Queen's mouth, but it did not fit. Queen's mouth was too small and hard. Lily said, "Oh, I forgot. You are a doll. You don't eat real food. You only eat pretend food."
+
+Lily felt sorry for Queen. She said, "I'm sorry, Queen. I didn't mean to make you unhappy. I have an idea. Why don't we make some pretend food for you? We can use the play-doh and the cookie cutters. Then we can have a pretend party with the other dolls. Would you like that?"
+
+Queen nodded her head. She smiled at Lily. She was happy that Lily was her friend. She liked to play with her. Lily said, "Okay, let's go. Come on, Queen. I will lead you to the playroom. We will have so much fun." She took Queen by the hand and ran to the playroom. Mom watched them go. She smiled too. She was glad that Lily had a good imagination. She hoped that Lily would always lead a happy life.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with blocks and dolls. One day, they have a test at school. The test is about colors and shapes. Lily and Tom study hard. They want to do well.
+
+But on the test day, Tom forgets his pencil. He asks Lily if he can borrow hers. Lily says no. She says she only has one pencil and she needs it. Tom feels sad and angry. He thinks Lily is not a good friend. He says he does not want to play with her anymore.
+
+Lily feels sorry and hurt. She likes Tom and she does not want to lose him. She thinks she was selfish and mean. She wants to say sorry and share her pencil. But Tom does not look at her. He sits far away from her.
+
+After the test, the teacher gives them stickers. Lily gets a yellow star. Tom gets a blue heart. Lily walks to Tom and gives him her sticker. She says, "I am sorry, Tom. I was wrong. Can I give you my star and you give me your heart? Can we be friends again?"
+
+Tom looks at Lily and sees her sad eyes. He remembers how they used to have fun together. He feels sorry too. He says, "I am sorry, Lily. I was mad. You can have my heart and I can have your star. You are a good friend. I forgive you."
+
+Lily and Tom hug and smile. They exchange their stickers and their pencils. They feel warm and happy. They are friends again.
+Tom and Anna liked to play pirates. They had a big box that was their ship, and a paper map that showed where the treasure was. They put on hats and scarves and pretended to sail the seas.
+
+One day, they saw a mean boy named Ben, who wanted to take their map. He ran towards them and shouted, "Give me that map, or I'll make you walk the plank!"
+
+Tom and Anna were scared, but they did not want to lose their map. Tom said, "No, this is our map, and we will protect it. Go away, Ben, you are not a pirate, you are a bully!"
+
+Ben did not listen. He grabbed the map and tore it in half. He laughed and said, "Ha ha, now you have no map, and no treasure. You are silly pirates, and I am the king of the sea!"
+
+Tom and Anna cried. They felt very sad and angry. They had worked hard to make their map, and now it was ruined. They had no ship, no treasure, and no fun. They wished they had a real pirate to help them. They hugged each other and tried to feel comfortable, but they did not. They wished Ben would go away and never come back.
+Ben liked to spin. He spun on his chair, he spun on his bike, he spun on his toy car. He spun so fast that he felt dizzy and happy. He wanted to spin more and more.
+
+One day, he saw a big red truck outside his house. It had a loud siren and a long ladder. It was a fireman truck. Ben ran to the window and watched the firemen get out. They wore yellow hats and coats. They had a hose and an axe. They looked very busy and brave.
+
+"Wow, firemen!" Ben said. "I want to be a fireman too!"
+
+He ran to his room and put on his red shirt and his yellow hat. He grabbed his toy hose and his toy axe. He ran outside and pretended to be a fireman. He sprayed water at the flowers, he chopped the grass, he climbed the tree. He had so much fun.
+
+But then he saw something else. He saw the fireman truck. It was parked on the street, with the door open. Ben had an idea. He ran to the truck and climbed inside. He saw a big wheel and a lot of buttons. He wanted to spin the wheel and press the buttons. He thought it would be fun.
+
+He reached for the wheel and gave it a spin. He heard a loud honk. He pressed a button and heard a siren. He pressed another button and saw the ladder move. He was so excited. He spun the wheel more and more. He pressed more and more buttons.
+
+But he did not see what was happening outside. He did not see the truck start to roll. He did not see the firemen run after him. He did not see the cars and the people on the street. He did not see the danger.
+
+"Stop! Stop!" the firemen shouted. "Get out of the truck!"
+
+But Ben did not hear them. He was too busy spinning and pressing. He was having too much fun.
+
+Until he saw a big wall. A big brick wall. A big brick wall that was getting closer and closer. Ben felt scared. He wanted to stop. He wanted to get out. But he did not know how.
+
+He closed his eyes and screamed.
+
+"Ben! Ben!" he heard a voice. A familiar voice. A voice that sounded like his mom.
+
+He opened his eyes and saw his mom. She was holding him in her arms. She looked worried and angry. She had a bandage on her arm. She had a tear on her dress.
+
+"Ben, what did you do?" she asked. "You almost crashed the fireman truck! You hurt yourself and me and the firemen! You could have hurt more people! You were not careful, Ben! You were very naughty!"
+
+Ben felt sorry. He felt ashamed. He felt sad. He hugged his mom and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry, firemen. I just wanted to spin. I just wanted to be a fireman. I didn't mean to be bad."
+
+His mom sighed and kissed him. She said, "I know, Ben. I know you like to spin. I know you like to be a fireman. But you have to be careful, Ben. You have to be safe. You have to listen and follow the rules. You have to be a good boy, Ben. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben nodded. He said, "I understand, mom. I will be careful. I will be safe. I will listen and follow the rules. I will be a good boy, mom. I promise."
+
+His mom smiled and said, "That's good, Ben. That's very good. I love you, Ben. You are my brave and smart boy. But please, no more spinning on the fireman truck, okay?"
+
+Ben smiled and said, "Okay, mom. No more spinning on the fireman truck. Only on my chair, my bike, and my toy car. And only when you say it's okay."
+
+His mom laughed and said, "That's right, Ben. That's much better. Now let's go home and have some ice cream. And say thank you to the firemen for being so nice and forgiving."
+
+Ben said, "Thank you, firemen. You are very nice and forgiving. And very busy and brave. And very careful and safe. I want to be like you when I grow up. But not today. Today I just want to have some ice cream with my mom."
+
+The firemen smiled and waved. They said, "You're welcome, Ben. You are very sweet and polite. And very lucky and strong. And very sorry and honest. We hope you have a good day. And enjoy your ice cream with your mom."

+Tom and Sam were best friends. They liked to play with trains and cars. One day, they went to the park with their moms. There was a big track for real trains. Tom and Sam wanted to see the trains up close.
+
+"Let's go on the track!" Tom said. "It will be fun!"
+
+"No, Tom, that's bad!" Sam said. "The track is not for us. It is for trains. Trains are fast and loud. They can hurt us."
+
+But Tom did not listen. He ran to the track. He wanted to touch the rails and the stones. He did not see the train coming.
+
+"Tom, come back!" Sam shouted. "There is a train! It is coming!"
+
+Sam was scared. He wanted to help Tom. But he did not want to go on the track. He knew it was wrong. He resisted the urge to follow Tom. He stayed on the grass. He called for his mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, help! Tom is on the track! There is a train!"
+
+The moms heard Sam. They saw Tom. They ran to the track. They waved their arms and yelled at Tom. They tried to stop the train.
+
+The train saw the moms. It blew its horn. It slowed down. It stopped. It did not hit Tom.
+
+Tom was lucky. He was not hurt. But he was ashamed. He knew he did a bad thing. He made his mom and Sam worried. He made the train stop. He was sorry.
+
+"Tom, what were you thinking?" his mom said. "You could have been killed! You could have hurt someone else! You were very naughty!"
+
+Tom cried. He hugged his mom. He said he was sorry. He said he would never do it again.
+
+Sam was relieved. He was glad Tom was safe. He was proud he did not go on the track. He was a good friend.
+
+"Tom, I'm happy you are okay," Sam said. "But don't ever do that again. The track is not for us. It is for trains. We can watch them from far away. We can play with our toys. That is more fun."
+
+Tom nodded. He agreed with Sam. He learned his lesson. He thanked Sam for being a good friend. He said he was sorry for scaring him.
+
+The moms were angry. But they were also happy. They hugged their sons. They said they loved them. They said they were glad they were okay.
+
+They left the park. They went home. They had a snack. They played with their trains and cars. They were careful. They were happy. They were friends.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the garden. They dug holes and found rocks and bugs. One day, they saw something shiny in the dirt. It was a gem! It was red and sparkly and pretty.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Tom said. "It's a treasure!"
+
+"Can I see?" Lily asked. She reached for the gem, but Tom pulled it away.
+
+"No, it's mine!" he said. "I found it first!"
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She wanted to share the gem with Tom. She thought he was being mean.
+
+Tom put the gem in his pocket and ran away. He wanted to keep the gem for himself. He thought it was very special.
+
+But he did not know that the gem belonged to someone else. It was a magic gem that a fairy had dropped by mistake. The fairy was looking for her gem. She was worried that someone had taken it. She flew around the garden, searching for her gem.
+
+She saw Tom hiding behind a bush. She saw the gem in his pocket. She flew over to him and said, "Hey, you! Give me back my gem!"
+
+Tom was scared. He saw the fairy. She was small and had wings and a wand. He did not know what to do.
+
+"Please, don't hurt me!" he said. "I'm sorry, I didn't know it was yours!"
+
+The fairy was angry. She said, "You should not take things that are not yours. You should not disturb the magic of the garden. You should share with your friends."
+
+She took the gem from his pocket and flew away. She said, "I hope you learned your lesson."
+
+Tom felt ashamed. He realized he had been selfish and greedy. He ran back to Lily and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was wrong. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "Yes, Tom. I forgive you. Let's play together."
+
+They hugged and played in the garden. They did not disturb the magic anymore. They were happy and kind.

+
+They went to the cashier. They paid for the dress. Lily thanked the cashier. She was happy.
+
+"Mom, can we get some ice cream?" Lily asked. She saw an ice cream shop near the exit.
+
+"Sure, Lily, we can get some ice cream. You deserve a treat," her mom said. They walked to the ice cream shop.
+
+Lily chose chocolate ice cream. Her mom chose vanilla. They sat on a bench and ate their ice cream. It was yummy. Lily licked her lips. She was full.
+
+"Did you have fun at the mall, Lily?" her mom asked.
+
+"Yes, mom, I had fun. Thank you for the dress and the ice cream," Lily said.
+
+"You're welcome, Lily. I love you," her mom said.
+
+"I love you too, mom," Lily said. They hugged.
+
+They got up and left the mall. They went home. Lily wore her new dress. She felt happy.
+Lila and Tom are going to visit their grandma. They have to pack their bags. Lila puts her doll, her book and her hat in her bag. Tom puts his car, his ball and his ink in his bag.
+
+"What is that?" Lila asks, pointing at the ink.
+
+"It is ink. I use it to draw and write," Tom says.
+
+"Why do you need ink? You can use crayons or pencils," Lila says.
+
+"I like ink. It is black and shiny. And it makes funny shapes when I spill it," Tom says.
+
+Lila shakes her head. She thinks ink is messy and smelly. She does not like it.
+
+They finish packing their bags and go to the car. Their mom and dad help them with their bags. Tom's bag is very heavy. He tries to lift it, but he is weak. He drops his bag on the ground.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom cries. "My ink!"
+
+The ink bottle breaks and spills on the ground. The ink makes a big stain on the grass. Tom is sad. He liked his ink.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom," Lila says. "Maybe grandma has some ink for you."
+
+"Maybe," Tom says. He wipes his tears. He hopes grandma has some ink. He likes to draw and write with ink.
+Lila and Sam were best friends. They liked to play outside in the park. One day, they saw a big puddle on the grass. They ran to the puddle and jumped in it. They splashed and laughed and made waves.
+
+"Look, Lila, a bird!" Sam said, pointing to the sky. Lila looked up and saw a big white bird with long wings. It was soaring high above the trees. It looked different from the other birds they knew.
+
+"What kind of bird is that?" Lila asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it's a swan. Or a goose. Or a cloud-bird." Sam guessed.
+
+"A cloud-bird? What's that?" Lila wondered.
+
+"A cloud-bird is a bird that lives in the clouds. It can fly very fast and very far. It can make rain and snow and thunder. It's very special." Sam explained.
+
+"Wow, I wish I could see a cloud-bird up close. Do you think it would be friendly?" Lila said.
+
+"Maybe. Maybe we can be friends with the cloud-bird. Maybe we can soar with it." Sam said.
+
+They both smiled and imagined flying with the cloud-bird. They held hands and jumped in the puddle again. They felt happy and free. They felt different from the other kids. They felt like cloud-birds.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big stone near the pond. It was gray and round and smooth.
+
+"Let's climb on the stone!" Lily said. "It looks fun!"
+
+"OK!" Ben said. They ran to the stone and tried to climb on it. But the stone was too high and slippery. They could not reach the top.
+
+"Help!" Lily said. "I can't get up!"
+
+"Me neither!" Ben said. They felt scared and sad. They wanted to get off the stone.
+
+Then they heard a gentle voice. It was their mom. She had come to the park to find them.
+
+"Hello, my sweeties!" she said. "What are you doing on the stone?"
+
+"We wanted to climb on it, but we can't!" Lily said.
+
+"We are stuck!" Ben said.
+
+"Don't worry, I'm here to help you!" mom said. She reached out her arms and lifted them off the stone. She hugged them and kissed them.
+
+"Are you OK?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, we are OK!" Lily and Ben said. They felt happy and safe.
+
+"Thank you, mom!" they said.
+
+"You're welcome, my loves!" mom said. "But next time, be careful with the stone. It might be too hard or too wet for you. And always stay where I can see you, OK?"
+
+"OK, mom!" Lily and Ben said. They learned their lesson. They decided to play on the swings instead. They had fun and did not escape from mom again.
+Tim and Kim are twins. They like to play together, but sometimes they fight. One day, they fight over a toy car. Tim wants the car, but Kim says it is hers. They pull and push and shout.
+
+"Give me the car!" Tim says.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Kim says.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She asks them why they are fighting. Tim and Kim both lie. They say the other one took the car first. Mom is not happy. She says lying is bad. She takes the car away and tells them to go to their rooms.
+
+Tim and Kim go to their rooms. They are sad and angry. They sit on their beds and do not talk. They hear nothing but silence. They do not have the car or each other. They feel lonely and bored.
+
+After a while, Tim thinks of something. He gets up and goes to Kim's room. He knocks on the door. Kim opens it. She sees Tim holding a book. It is a book about animals. It has many pictures and words. It is interesting.
+
+"Kim, I am sorry I lied. I want to share the car with you. Do you want to read this book with me? It is interesting." Tim says.
+
+Kim smiles. She is sorry too. She says yes. She takes the book and invites Tim in. They sit on the bed and look at the book. They see lions and elephants and monkeys. They learn new things. They laugh and talk.
+
+Mom hears them and smiles. She is happy. She goes to their room and gives them a hug. She says she is proud of them. She says telling the truth and sharing are good. She gives them back the car. They say thank you. They play with the car and the book. They have fun together.

+
+But they did not see that their mom was coming back from the store. She opened the door and saw the mess. She was very angry.
+
+"What did you do?" she shouted. "You wasted all the eggs and made a big mess! You are very naughty boys!"
+
+She took them to their room and gave them a spicy pepper to eat. They cried and said they were sorry, but it was too late. The pepper burned their mouths and made them thirsty.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not strike the eggs or you will get a spicy punishment.

+They played for a while, until their mom came in with a big box. She smiled and said, "Look what I have for you, kids. A surprise!"

+
+"Wow, that's so far," Ben says. "How do we get there?"
+
+"We can take a plane or a train or a car," Lily says. "But it takes a long time. That's why we don't see grandma often."

+"I miss grandma," Ben says. "She always gives me cookies and hugs."
+

+
+"Hello, little ones. Do you want to ride the horse?" the man asks.
+
+"Yes, please!" Lily and Ben say.
+

+
+He helps Lily and Ben to get on the horse. Lily sits in front and Ben sits behind her. They hold on to the horse's mane. The horse walks slowly around the park. Lily and Ben feel happy. They like the horse.

+Lily and Ben were twins who loved cookies. They always wanted to eat cookies for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But their mom said no. She said cookies were only for special times, like after dinner or on birthdays.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben saw a big jar of cookies on the kitchen counter. They smelled so good. They looked so yummy. They wanted to have some right now. But their mom was in the living room, reading a book. How could they get the cookies without her seeing them?

+
+Mom smiled. She loved reading stories to her children. She said, "Of course, Ben. Come here and sit on my lap. Let me get the book."
+
+While mom was busy looking for the book, Lily tiptoed into the kitchen. She climbed on a chair and reached for the jar of cookies. She managed to open it and grab two cookies. One for her and one for Ben. She was very happy. She put the jar back and jumped off the chair. She ran to her room with the cookies in her hand.
+
+She found Ben waiting for her on his bed. He had a big smile on his face. He said, "Did you get the cookies, Lily?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, I did. Here, take one. They are so good."

+
+"I want to catch it!" Sam says. He runs after the helicopter, but it is too high and too far. He cannot catch it.
+

+Then they see a woman on a bench. She has a book and a dog. The dog is brown and fluffy. Lily likes dogs. She wants to pet the dog. She asks her mom if she can. Her mom nods and signs yes. Lily walks to the woman and signs hello. The woman looks at Lily and smiles. She signs hello back. She is deaf too. She and Lily sign about the dog, the book, and the rainbow. They are happy. They make a new friend.
+Sam and Mia were best friends. They liked to play in the park and share their toys. One day, they saw a big slide in the park. It was very high and shiny. Sam wanted to try it, but Mia was scared.
+
+"Come on, Mia, let's go on the slide!" Sam said. "It looks fun!"
+
+"No, Sam, it's too high. I don't want to go." Mia said. "You go first."
+
+Sam was brave. He climbed up the ladder and sat on the slide. He looked down and smiled. He felt mighty.
+
+"Watch me, Mia!" he shouted. "I'm going to slide down fast!"
+
+He pushed himself and slid down the slide. He felt the wind in his hair and the sun on his face. He laughed and landed on the ground. He was happy.
+
+"That was awesome!" he said. "You should try it, Mia. It's not scary at all."
+
+Mia looked at the slide. She wanted to be brave like Sam. She wanted to have fun. But she was still scared.
+
+"I don't know, Sam. It's so high." she said. "What if I fall?"
+
+"You won't fall, Mia. I'll catch you." Sam said. "I dare you to go on the slide. Just once. Please?"
+
+Mia thought about it. She liked Sam. She didn't want to let him down. She decided to try it. She took a deep breath and climbed up the ladder. She sat on the slide. She looked down and felt nervous.
+
+"Are you ready, Mia?" Sam asked. "You can do it!"
+
+Mia nodded. She closed her eyes and pushed herself. She slid down the slide. She felt the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She screamed and landed on the ground. She was surprised.
+
+"That was amazing!" she said. "I did it, Sam! I did it!"
+
+Sam hugged her. He was proud of her.
+
+"You did it, Mia! You were mighty!" he said. "You're the best friend ever!"
+
+They smiled and high-fived. They were happy.
+
+"Let's do it again!" Mia said.
+
+"Okay!" Sam said.
+
+They ran to the slide and slid down again and again. They had a lot of fun. After a while, they got thirsty. They went to the bench and drank some juice. They shared their juice and their stories. They were best friends.
+Lily and Tom went to the beach with Mom and Dad. They liked to play in the sand and look for shells. They also liked to splash in the water, but not too far from the shore.
+
+"Look, Lily, a big wave!" Tom said, pointing to the sea. "Let's go and jump over it!"
+
+"OK, Tom, but mind the rocks. They are sharp and can hurt your feet," Lily said, holding Tom's hand.
+
+They ran towards the wave, laughing and shouting. They jumped over it just in time, and felt the cool spray on their faces.
+
+"That was great!" Tom said, smiling. "Let's do it again!"
+
+"OK, but be careful. And listen to Mom and Dad. They will tell us when it's time to go home," Lily said, nodding.
+
+They played with the waves for a long time, until they heard Mom calling them.
+
+"Lily, Tom, come here! It's time to have a snack and rest. You must be hungry and tired after so much fun," Mom said, waving to them.
+
+"OK, Mom, we're coming!" Lily and Tom said, running back to the blanket. They were happy and hungry, and they loved the beach.
+Lily liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She had a small apron with flowers on it. She wanted to make a cake for her dad's birthday. Mom gave her a bowl and a spoon and some flour and sugar and eggs. Lily was happy.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Lily dropped the bowl on the floor. The flour and sugar and eggs made a big mess. Mom was grumpy. She said, "Lily, what did you do? Look at this mess! You can't help me anymore. Go to your room!"
+
+Lily felt sad. She ran to her room and cried. She wanted to make a cake for her dad. She wanted to make her mom happy. She didn't mean to drop the bowl. She cried and cried.
+
+Dad came home from work. He heard Lily crying. He went to her room and hugged her. He said, "Lily, why are you crying? What's wrong?"
+
+Lily told him what happened. She said, "I wanted to help mom make a cake for you. But I dropped the bowl and made a mess. Mom was grumpy and sent me to my room. I'm sorry, dad."
+
+Dad smiled. He said, "Lily, don't be sorry. It was an accident. Mom was grumpy because she was tired and stressed. She didn't mean to be mean to you. She loves you very much. And so do I. You know what? I have a surprise for you. Come with me."
+
+Dad took Lily to the kitchen. There, on the table, was a big cake with candles and frosting and sprinkles. Mom was there too, with a smile and a hug. She said, "Lily, I'm sorry I was grumpy. I was wrong. You are a great helper. And this cake is for you and dad. Happy birthday, dad. And thank you, Lily, for being such a sweet daughter."
+
+Lily was happy. She hugged her mom and dad. She said, "Thank you, mom. Thank you, dad. I love you both. Can we eat the cake now?"
+
+They all laughed and ate the cake. Lily was happy. She forgot about the mess. She had a good day.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the hut. The hut is brown and has a door and a window. Lila and Ben have toys and books in the hut.
+
+One day, Lila and Ben hear music. The music comes from the big house. The big house is where Lila and Ben's mums and dads live. Lila and Ben want to see the music.
+
+They run to the big house. They see mums and dads and other people. They are dancing. They are happy. They wear nice clothes and shoes. Lila and Ben like the music. They want to dance too.
+
+They ask their mums and dads. "Can we dance with you?" they say. Their mums and dads smile. "Yes, you can," they say. "But first, put on your hats and coats. It is cold outside."
+
+Lila and Ben put on their hats and coats. They are red and blue. They look pretty. They go outside with their mums and dads. They dance on the grass. They laugh and clap. They have fun.
+
+The music stops. It is time to go back to the hut. Lila and Ben say bye to the other people. They hug their mums and dads. They run to the hut. They are tired. They lie down on the floor. They close their eyes. They dream of dancing.
+Lily was a polite girl who liked to say please and thank you. She also liked to play with her dolls and dress them up. One night, she wanted to sleep with her favorite doll, Rose, in her bed. She asked her mom if she could do that.
+
+"Of course, you can, Lily," her mom said. "But you have to put the other dolls back in the closet, okay? They need to sleep too."
+
+Lily nodded and hugged her mom. She went to her room and picked up Rose. She kissed her and said, "You are my best friend, Rose. I love you very much." She put the other dolls in the closet and closed the door. She climbed into her bed and tucked Rose under the blanket.
+
+She was about to fall asleep when she heard a noise from the closet. It sounded like someone was crying. She got scared and wondered who it was. She got out of bed and opened the closet door. She saw one of her dolls, Anna, sitting on the floor with tears in her eyes.
+
+"Why are you crying, Anna?" Lily asked.
+
+"Because you left me alone in the closet," Anna said. "You don't love me anymore. You only love Rose."
+
+Lily felt sorry for Anna. She realized that she had hurt her feelings. She said, "I'm sorry, Anna. I do love you. You are my friend too. I just wanted to sleep with Rose tonight. But you can sleep with me tomorrow, okay?"
+
+Anna smiled and said, "Really? Thank you, Lily. You are very polite and kind."
+
+Lily hugged Anna and said, "You're welcome, Anna. Come on, let's go to bed. We can all sleep together." She took Anna and Rose and went back to her bed. She put them on both sides of her and said, "Good night, my friends. I hope you have sweet dreams."
+
+The dolls said, "Good night, Lily. We love you too." They all snuggled together and fell asleep.
+Tim and Liz were hungry. They wanted to eat some sausages for lunch. They went to the kitchen and saw a big pan on the stove. Inside the pan, there were four sausages sizzling and popping.
+
+"Can we have some, Mom?" Tim asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. They are very hot," Mom said. She gave them each a plate and a fork.
+
+Tim and Liz took a sausage from the pan and put it on their plates. They tried to cut it with their forks, but it was too hard. They had to use their teeth to bite it.
+
+"Snap!" Tim's sausage broke in half. He smiled and chewed it. It was yummy.
+
+"Snap!" Liz's sausage broke in half, too. But she did not smile. She screamed and dropped it on the floor.
+
+"What's wrong, Liz?" Tim asked.
+
+"There's a bone in my sausage!" Liz cried. "It hurt my mouth!"
+
+Mom came over and looked at Liz's sausage. She saw a small white thing sticking out of it.
+
+"Oh, no. I'm sorry, Liz. That's not a bone. That's a tooth. A fierce dog must have bitten this sausage before we bought it," Mom said.
+
+"A dog? A fierce dog?" Liz and Tim said.
+
+"Yes, a fierce dog. Maybe it was hungry, too. But don't worry. It won't bite you. It's not here. It's gone," Mom said.
+
+She threw away the bad sausage and gave Liz a new one. She hugged her and kissed her cheek.
+
+"Are you okay, Liz?" Mom asked.
+
+Liz nodded. She felt better. She tried her new sausage. It was yummy, too.
+
+"Snap!" She broke it in half and shared it with Tim.
+
+They ate their sausages and smiled. They were not hungry anymore. They were happy.
+Tom liked to be independent. He did not want to ask for help. He wanted to do everything by himself. He liked to wear his boots. They were big and brown and made him feel strong.
+
+One day, Tom saw a big puddle in the park. He wanted to jump in it. He did not care if his boots got wet. He ran to the puddle and jumped with both feet. He felt a splash and a squish. He smiled.
+
+But then he felt something wrong. His boots were stuck in the mud. He tried to pull them out, but they did not move. He tried to wiggle his feet, but they did not fit. He felt scared and cold. He started to cry.
+
+He looked around for his mom, but he did not see her. He had run too far from her. He had not listened to her when she told him to stay close. He wished he had asked for help. He wished he had not been so independent. He wished he had not jumped in the puddle. He wished he could get out of his boots. But he could not. He was stuck.
+Ben is a shy boy. He does not like to talk to new people. He likes to play with his cars and his tie. His tie is red and blue and has cars on it. He wears it every day.
+
+One day, Ben goes to the park with his mom. He sees a girl on the swing. She has a yellow dress and a pink bow. She looks at Ben and smiles. Ben feels scared. He hides behind his mom.
+
+The girl gets off the swing and walks to Ben. She says, "Hi, I am Lily. What is your name?" Ben does not say anything. He holds his tie and looks down.
+
+Lily says, "I like your tie. It has cars on it. Do you like cars?" Ben nods. He likes cars a lot. He has many cars at home.
+
+Lily says, "Do you want to play with me? We can play with cars and swings and slides." Ben looks at his mom. His mom says, "It's okay, Ben. You can play with Lily. She is a nice girl. I will be here if you need me."
+
+Ben feels a little less scared. He likes Lily. She likes cars too. He says, "Okay. I am Ben. Let's play." He gives Lily his tie. She puts it on her bow. They look funny. They laugh and run to the slide. Ben is not shy anymore. He has a new friend.
+Tom and Lily are playing in the park. They see a big sack on the grass. They want to see what is inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Tom says.
+
+"OK!" Lily says.
+
+They run to the sack and pull the string. The sack opens and a lot of balloons come out. The balloons are different colors and shapes. Tom and Lily are happy. They start to catch the balloons and throw them in the air.
+
+"Look, this one is a star!" Tom says, holding a yellow balloon.
+
+"And this one is a heart!" Lily says, holding a red balloon.
+
+They see a big balloon that looks like a giraffe. It has a long neck and spots. Tom and Lily want to play with it.
+
+"Can I have it?" Tom asks.
+
+"No, I want it!" Lily says.
+
+They both grab the balloon by the neck and pull. The balloon makes a loud noise and pops. Tom and Lily are surprised. They let go of the balloon and look at each other.
+
+They start to laugh. They think it is silly that they fought over a balloon. They hug and say sorry.
+
+"Let's share the other balloons!" Tom says.
+
+"OK!" Lily says.
+
+They play with the balloons until it is time to go home. They leave the sack on the grass for other children to find. They are happy and tired. They hold hands and walk with their mom. They had a fun day in the park.
+Ben was a fisherman who liked to catch big fish. He had a boat and a net and a rod. He went to the sea every day and looked for fish. He was happy when he caught a lot of fish.
+
+One day, he saw another fisherman who had a bigger boat and a bigger net and a bigger rod. He also had a lot of big fish. Ben felt envious. He wanted to have what the other fisherman had. He said to himself, "I wish I had his boat and his net and his rod and his fish."
+
+He decided to follow the other fisherman and see where he went. He hoped to find his secret spot where he caught the big fish. He followed him for a long time, but he did not see him stop. He wondered where he was going.
+
+Finally, he saw the other fisherman stop at a small island. He saw him get off his boat and carry his fish to a hut. Ben thought, "This must be his home. Maybe he lives here alone with his fish. I will go and see."
+
+He parked his boat near the island and walked to the hut. He knocked on the door and said, "Hello, can I come in?" He heard a voice say, "Who are you? What do you want?"
+
+He opened the door and saw the other fisherman sitting on a chair. He saw his fish on a table. But they were not fresh and shiny. They were old and smelly. They had flies and worms on them. They were rotting.
+
+Ben felt sick. He said, "Why do you keep these fish? They are bad. They are not good to eat. They are not good for anything."
+
+The other fisherman looked at him and said, "These are my fish. I caught them with my boat and my net and my rod. They are mine. I do not want to share them with anyone. I do not want to sell them or give them away. I do not care if they rot. They are my treasure."
+
+Ben felt sorry for him. He said, "You are not happy. You are lonely and greedy. You do not have any friends or family. You do not have any fun or joy. You only have rotting fish. That is not a good life."
+
+He turned around and left the hut. He went back to his boat and sailed away. He thought, "I do not want to be like him. I do not want to be envious. I have enough. I have a good boat and a good net and a good rod. I have fresh and tasty fish. I have friends and family who love me. I have fun and joy. I have a good life."
+Ben and Mia were bored. They had nothing to do. They looked at their toys, but they did not want to play with them. They looked at their books, but they did not want to read them. They looked at their mom, but she was busy on the phone.
+
+"Let's go outside," Ben said.
+
+"OK," Mia said.
+
+They put on their shoes and coats and went to the backyard. They saw a big tree with red and yellow leaves. They saw a swing and a slide. They saw a ball and a bike. They saw a lot of things to do.
+
+"Let's grab the ball and play catch," Ben said.
+
+"OK," Mia said.
+
+They grabbed the ball and threw it to each other. They had fun. They laughed and ran. They did not feel bored anymore.
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. It was a growl. It was a scary noise. It came from behind the fence. They stopped playing and looked at each other.
+
+"What is that?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know," Mia said.
+
+They were afraid. They wanted to go back inside. They dropped the ball and ran to the door. But the door was locked. They forgot to take the key. They knocked and shouted.
+
+"Mom, mom, let us in!" Ben said.
+
+"Mom, mom, there is a noise!" Mia said.
+
+But mom did not hear them. She was still on the phone. She did not know they were outside. She did not know they were scared.
+
+They did not know what to do. They hugged each other and waited. They hoped the noise would go away. They hoped mom would come soon. They hoped it was not a monster.
+Tom is a hero. He likes to help people and animals. He wears a red cape and a mask. He runs fast and jumps high. He is very healthy and strong.
+
+One day, he sees a cat stuck in a tree. The cat is scared and meows. Tom runs to the tree and climbs up. He grabs the cat and puts it in his arms. He says, "Don't worry, cat. I will save you."
+
+He slides down the tree and gives the cat to a girl. The girl is happy and hugs the cat. She says, "Thank you, hero. You are very kind and brave."
+
+Tom smiles and says, "You're welcome, girl. I'm glad you have your cat back."
+
+He waves goodbye and runs away. He sees a bus coming. He changes his cape and mask for a hat and a backpack. He is not a hero anymore. He is a boy. He gets on the bus and goes to school. He likes to learn new things and play with his friends. He is a good boy. He is happy.
+Tim was a gifted boy. He could jump very high and far. He liked to jump over rocks and logs and fences. He wanted to jump over the lake.
+
+One day, he went to the lake with his mom and dad. They had a picnic and played with a ball. Tim saw the lake and thought it was very big and blue. He wanted to jump over it and see what was on the other side.
+
+He ran to the edge of the lake and jumped as hard as he could. He felt the wind in his hair and the sun on his face. He was flying over the lake. He was happy.
+
+But then he saw that the lake was too big. He could not jump over it. He was falling into the water. He was scared.
+
+His mom and dad saw him and ran to the lake. They jumped into the water and swam to him. They grabbed him and pulled him out. They hugged him and kissed him. They were glad he was safe.
+
+They told him that he was very gifted, but he should not jump over the lake. It was too dangerous. He could get hurt or drown. He should only jump over things that were small and safe.
+
+Tim said he was sorry. He did not know the lake was so big and deep. He was curious and wanted to see more. He thanked his mom and dad for saving him. He said he loved them.
+
+They said they loved him too. They dried him off and gave him a towel. They said he could still jump, but only on the land. They said they would show him more things to jump over, like hills and bridges and streams.
+
+Tim smiled and nodded. He was still a gifted boy. He could still jump very high and far. He liked to jump over things, but he learned his lesson. He would not jump over the lake again.
+Anna and Ben love to watch movies with their mom and dad. They always make popcorn before the movie starts. Popcorn is their favorite snack. It is crunchy and salty and yummy.
+
+One day, they wanted to watch a new movie about a princess and a dragon. They asked their mom to supply them with popcorn. Mom said yes, but she told them to be careful. The popcorn was very delicate. It could break easily if they squeezed it too hard.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and took their popcorn bowls. They went to the couch and waited for the movie to start. They were very excited. They wanted to see the princess and the dragon.
+
+But then, Ben saw something shiny on the table. It was a necklace that mom had made. It had beads and flowers and sparkles. Ben thought it was pretty. He wanted to try it on. He put his popcorn bowl down and reached for the necklace.
+
+"Ben, what are you doing?" Anna asked. She saw Ben with the necklace. She knew it was mom's. She knew mom would be mad if Ben touched it.
+
+"I just want to see how it looks," Ben said. He put the necklace around his neck. He smiled. He felt like a prince.
+
+But then, he heard a loud pop. He looked down. He saw that he had squeezed his popcorn bowl too hard. The popcorn had broken and spilled all over the floor.
+
+"Oh no!" Ben said. He dropped the necklace and tried to pick up the popcorn. But it was too late. Mom and dad came into the room. They saw the mess. They saw the necklace. They were not happy.
+
+"Ben, what did you do?" mom asked. She took the necklace from the floor. She saw that some of the beads had fallen off. She was sad. She had worked hard to make the necklace.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom," Ben said. He felt bad. He knew he had made a mistake. He had not listened to mom. He had not been careful with the popcorn.
+
+"It's okay, Ben," mom said. She hugged him. She was not angry. She knew Ben was still learning. She knew he loved her. "But next time, please ask before you touch something that is not yours. And please be gentle with the popcorn. It is delicate, just like the necklace."
+
+"I will, mom," Ben said. He hugged her back. He said sorry to dad too. He said sorry to Anna too. He helped them clean up the popcorn. Then they all sat on the couch and watched the movie. They shared the popcorn that was left. They enjoyed the movie. They learned a lesson. They loved each other.
+Sam and Lily were going to visit their grandma. They were very happy because they loved grandma and she had a big garden with many flowers and birds. Mom told them to pack their bags with clothes and toys.
+
+Sam ran to his room and packed his bag very fast. He put in his favorite shirt, his pajamas, his teddy bear and his car. He did not forget his toothbrush and his comb. He zipped his bag and said, "I am ready, Mom!"
+
+Lily walked to her room and packed her bag very slowly. She wanted to take everything with her. She put in her dress, her skirt, her sweater, her doll, her book, her crayons and her hat. She tried to zip her bag, but it was too full. She said, "I need a bigger bag, Mom!"
+
+Mom came to help Lily. She said, "You cannot take everything, Lily. You only need a few things for grandma's house. Let's take out some things and leave them here. You can play with them when you come back."
+
+Lily nodded and took out some things from her bag. She left her book, her crayons and her hat. She zipped her bag and said, "Now I am ready, Mom!"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Good job, Lily. Now let's go to the bathroom and wash our hands and faces. Then we can go to the car and drive to grandma's house."
+
+Sam and Lily went to the bathroom and washed their hands and faces. They looked at themselves in the mirror and said, "We are lucky. We are going to see grandma!"
+Anna and Ben were twins who lived in a big cabin with their parents. They were very wealthy and had many toys and clothes and books. But they were not happy. They always fought with each other and never shared anything. They did not have any friends to play with.
+
+One day, their parents told them they were going on a trip to the city and they had to stay with their grandma in a small cabin in the woods. Anna and Ben did not like this idea. They did not want to leave their big cabin and their toys and clothes and books. They did not want to stay with their grandma who was old and boring.
+
+When they arrived at the small cabin, they saw that it was very different from their big cabin. It was cozy and warm, but it had only one room and a few things. Their grandma greeted them with a hug and a smile and told them to make themselves at home. She said she had a surprise for them after dinner.
+
+Anna and Ben were curious about the surprise, but they did not say thank you to their grandma. They just complained about the small cabin and the simple food and the lack of toys and clothes and books. They said they wanted to go back to their big cabin.
+
+Their grandma did not get angry. She just said, "You will see, my dears, that happiness is not in things, but in people and in love." She then took them to the backyard, where she had set up a bonfire and a radio. She said, "This is the surprise. We are going to dance and sing and have fun under the stars. Come on, join me!"
+
+Anna and Ben looked at each other and then at their grandma, who was already dancing and singing along to the music. They saw that she was happy and joyful, even though she had so little. They felt ashamed of their selfishness and rudeness. They decided to give the surprise a try. They joined their grandma and started to dance and sing with her. They felt a warmth in their hearts that they had never felt before. They realized that their grandma was right. Happiness was not in things, but in people and in love.
+
+They hugged their grandma and said, "We are sorry, grandma. We were wrong. We love you and we love this cabin. Thank you for the surprise. It is the best one ever." Their grandma hugged them back and said, "I love you too, my dears. And I am glad you learned a valuable lesson. Now let's keep dancing and having fun." And they did. And they were happy.
+Sam and Mia are twins. They like to play in the park with their dog, Rex. Rex is a big, brown dog. He is very friendly and likes to run and jump.
+
+One day, they see an old man walking with a cane. The cane is black and shiny. The old man walks very slowly and carefully. He looks sad and tired.
+
+"Hello, sir," Sam says. "Do you want to play with us and Rex?"
+
+The old man stops and smiles. He notices Sam and Mia's bright eyes and happy faces. He also notices Rex's wagging tail and fluffy fur.
+
+"Hello, children," he says. "You are very kind, but I can't play with you. My legs are not strong and my cane helps me walk. I have to go home and rest."
+
+Mia feels sorry for the old man. She thinks he is lonely and bored. She has an idea.
+
+"Sir, can we give you a hug?" she asks. "Hugs make us feel better when we are sad or tired."
+
+The old man nods and bends down. Sam and Mia run to him and wrap their arms around him. Rex also comes and licks his hand. The old man feels warm and happy. He hugs them back and thanks them.
+
+"You are very sweet, children," he says. "You made my day brighter. You are very tough and brave, too. You are not afraid of strangers or canes."
+
+Sam and Mia giggle. They are not afraid. They are curious and friendly. They like to make new friends.
+
+"Can we see you again, sir?" Sam asks. "We can bring you some cookies or a book or a toy."
+
+The old man smiles and nods. He likes cookies and books and toys. He also likes Sam and Mia and Rex.
+
+"Of course, children," he says. "I would love to see you again. You can come to my house anytime. It is not far from here. Just follow the yellow flowers."
+
+He points to a row of bright flowers along the sidewalk. They lead to a small, cozy house with a blue door.
+
+"OK, sir," Mia says. "We will come soon. Bye-bye!"
+
+"Bye-bye, children," the old man says. "Bye-bye, Rex!"
+
+He waves and walks away with his cane. Sam and Mia wave back and run to their mom. Rex follows them and barks. They tell their mom about the old man and the yellow flowers. Their mom smiles and hugs them. She is proud of them. They are very good and nice. They made a new friend.
+Lily wanted to make a card for her mom. She found some paper, scissors and glue on the shelf in her room. She cut the paper into a heart shape and glued some stickers on it. She wrote "I love you Mom" with a crayon.
+
+She was very proud of her card and wanted to show it to her mom. She ran downstairs and looked for her mom in the kitchen. She saw her mom washing some dishes.
+
+"Mom, look what I made for you!" Lily said, holding up her card.
+
+Her mom turned around and smiled. She dried her hands and took the card from Lily. She hugged her and said, "Thank you, Lily. This is a very beautiful card. You are very sweet and clever."
+
+Lily beamed and said, "You're welcome, Mom. I love you very much."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you too, Lily. Where did you get the paper and scissors?"
+
+Lily said, "I got them from the shelf in my room. Why?"
+
+Her mom said, "Well, Lily, those were not your paper and scissors. They were mine. They were very expensive. I bought them for a special project. You should not cut them without asking me first."
+
+Lily felt sorry and said, "I'm sorry, Mom. I didn't know. I just wanted to make you a card."
+
+Her mom said, "I understand, Lily. And I appreciate your card. But next time, please ask me before you use my things. Okay?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Okay, Mom. I'm sorry. Can I still give you the card?"
+
+Her mom said, "Of course, Lily. The card is very precious to me. Thank you for making it. Now, let's go and put it on the fridge, so we can see it every day."
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big truck with a trunk. The trunk was full of toys and books. Anna and Ben wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Let's open the trunk and take some toys," Anna said.
+
+"No, we can't do that. That's not ours. That's bad," Ben said.
+
+But Anna did not listen. She ran to the truck and tried to open the trunk. She pulled and pulled, but it was locked.
+
+"Help me, Ben. I want to see the toys," Anna said.
+
+Ben did not want to help. He was scared. He saw a man coming out of the park office. The man was the owner of the truck. He looked angry.
+
+"Hey, you kids! What are you doing with my trunk?" the man shouted.
+
+He walked towards Anna and Ben. He had a big stick in his hand. He looked scary.
+
+Anna was scared too. She let go of the trunk and ran to Ben.
+
+"Sorry, mister. We were just curious. We didn't mean to hurt your trunk," Ben said.
+
+The man reached them and raised his stick. He was about to hit them.
+
+"Stop! Don't hurt them!" a voice said.
+
+It was their mom. She had seen everything from the bench. She ran to the man and stopped him.
+
+"Please, don't be angry. They are just little kids. They don't know better. They were just curious. Please, don't hit them," she said.
+
+The man looked at her and then at the kids. He lowered his stick. He sighed.
+
+"Fine. I won't hit them. But they have to learn to respect other people's things. They can't just demand to open other people's trunks. That's rude and dangerous. What if there was something sharp or heavy or hot in there? They could have hurt themselves or me or my trunk," he said.
+
+He opened his trunk and showed them what was inside. There were toys and books, but also tools and wires and cans and bottles.
+
+"See? These are not just toys and books. These are things I need for my work. I fix things in the park. I need these things to do my job. You can't just take them or play with them. They are not for you. They are for me," he said.
+
+Anna and Ben looked at the things in the trunk. They felt sorry. They did not know they were not just toys and books. They did not know they were not for them. They did not know they were for him.
+
+"Sorry, mister. We didn't know. We won't do it again. We won't touch your trunk or your things. We promise," they said.
+
+The man nodded. He closed his trunk and locked it. He smiled.
+
+"Okay. I forgive you. But remember, next time you see something that is not yours, don't touch it. Don't demand to open it. Ask first. Maybe the owner will let you see it or share it with you. Maybe not. But you have to respect their choice. That's the right thing to do. Understand?" he said.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They understood. They thanked the man and their mom. They hugged their mom and said sorry to her too. They learned their lesson. They never touched other people's trunks again.
+Ben and Lily liked to play with shapes. They had a big box of shapes that they could make into anything they wanted. Ben liked to make cars and planes. Lily liked to make houses and flowers.
+
+One day, they had a big fight. Ben wanted to use all the red shapes for his car. Lily wanted to use some of the red shapes for her house. They both pulled and pushed the shapes. They both shouted at each other.
+
+"Give me the red shapes! They are mine!" Ben shouted.
+
+"No, they are not! I need them too!" Lily shouted.
+
+They shouted so loud that their mom heard them. She came into the room and saw the mess. She saw the poor shapes on the floor. She saw the angry faces of Ben and Lily. She was not happy.
+
+"Stop shouting, both of you!" she said. "You have to share the shapes. They are not yours or mine. They are ours. You can both use them to make nice things. But you have to be kind and gentle with them and with each other."
+
+She helped them pick up the shapes and put them back in the box. She gave them a hug and a kiss. She told them to say sorry to each other. Ben and Lily felt bad for shouting. They said sorry and gave each other a hug. They decided to make something together with the shapes. They made a big rocket with red and blue and yellow and green shapes. They smiled and laughed and had fun. They were happy again.
+Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to play with cars and trucks. One day, they saw a big red truck outside their house. It had a sign that said "Deliver". They wanted to see what was inside the truck.
+
+They ran to the truck and opened the door. They saw many boxes with numbers on them. They thought they were presents. They took one box each and ran back to their house.
+
+"Look, Sam, I have number 7!" Tom said.
+
+"I have number 9!" Sam said.
+
+They opened the boxes and found toys inside. They were very happy and started to play with them.
+
+But then, they heard a loud voice outside. It was the truck driver. He was very angry. He saw that some of his boxes were missing. He followed the trail of paper and tape to Tom and Sam's house. He knocked on the door.
+
+"Who took my boxes?" he shouted.
+
+Tom and Sam were scared. They hid under the bed with their toys.
+
+Their mom opened the door and saw the truck driver. He showed her his sign and his boxes.
+
+"Did you see who took these?" he asked.
+
+She looked at the boxes and saw the numbers. She remembered that Tom and Sam had the same numbers on their toys. She realized what they had done.
+
+She felt very sorry and ashamed. She called Tom and Sam to come out. They came out slowly and saw the truck driver. They knew they were in trouble.
+
+They gave back the toys and the boxes to the truck driver. He was still angry, but he took them and left.
+
+Their mom was very sad and disappointed. She told them that they had done a very bad thing. They had stolen from someone who was working hard to deliver things to other people. They had made him lose his time and money. They had been very naughty and selfish.
+
+She said that they had to say sorry to the truck driver and to her. She said that they had to go to their room and think about what they had done. She said that they could not play with any toys for a week.
+
+Tom and Sam felt very sorry and ashamed. They said sorry to the truck driver and to their mom. They went to their room and cried. They wished they had never taken the boxes. They wished they had been good boys. They learned a hard lesson that day.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a new girl on the swing. She has long hair and a pink dress.
+
+"Who is she?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"I don't know. Let's go and say hello," Ben says.
+
+They walk to the swing and smile at the new girl.
+
+"Hi, I'm Lily and this is Ben. What's your name?" Lily says.
+
+"Hi, I'm Anna. I just moved here with my family," Anna says.
+
+"Where did you move from?" Ben asks.
+
+"I moved from China. It's very far away," Anna says.
+
+"Wow, that's cool. Do you like it here?" Lily asks.
+
+"It's nice, but I miss my friends and my home. And I miss my favorite food, rice," Anna says.
+
+"Rice? What is rice?" Ben asks.
+
+"Rice is a white food that you eat with a spoon or chopsticks. It's yummy and filling," Anna says.
+
+"I like rice too. My mom makes rice sometimes. She puts chicken and carrots and peas in it," Lily says.
+
+"That sounds good. My mom makes rice with different things too. She puts soy sauce and eggs and scallions in it," Anna says.
+
+"Can we try your rice sometime?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, you can come to my house and have rice with me. I can introduce you to my mom and dad and my little brother," Anna says.
+
+"Yay, that would be fun. Thank you, Anna," Lily and Ben say.
+
+They become friends and play on the swing together. They are happy and hungry. They can't wait to try Anna's rice.
+
+The end.
+Sara and Tom are playing hide and seek in the park. Sara is the seeker and Tom is the hider. Tom runs to a big tree and hides behind it. He covers his mouth with his hand so Sara cannot hear him.
+
+"Ready or not, here I come!" Sara shouts. She looks around the park and tries to find Tom. She sees a swing, a slide, a bench, but no Tom. She walks closer to the big tree and hears a small noise.
+
+"Is that you, Tom?" Sara asks. She peeks behind the tree and sees Tom's face. He smiles and says, "You found me!"
+
+Sara laughs and says, "Yes, I did! You are a good hider, Tom. But you should be more careful with your voice. I heard you make a noise."
+
+Tom says, "Oh, I'm sorry. I was trying to be quiet. But I sneezed. I think I'm sick."
+
+Sara says, "Oh no, Tom. You should go home and rest. You don't want to get worse. Come on, I'll walk with you."
+
+Tom says, "OK, Sara. Thank you. You are a good friend."
+
+Sara and Tom hold hands and walk to Tom's house. They say goodbye and Tom goes inside. Sara goes back to the park and plays by herself.
+
+The next day, Sara goes to Tom's house to see how he is. She knocks on the door, but no one answers. She sees a note on the door. It says, "Tom is in the hospital. He has a bad fever. He might not get better. Please pray for him."
+
+Sara feels very sad and scared. She cries and runs away. She wishes she had not played with Tom. She wishes she had not found him. She wishes he was not sick. She wishes he was still her friend.
+Lily and Ben are playing with blocks in the living room. They are building a big tower with many colors. Lily likes to move the blocks with her hands and stack them high. Ben likes to move the blocks with his mouth and chew them softly.
+
+"Ben, stop!" Lily says. "You are making the blocks messy with your mouth. They are not food. They are toys."
+
+Ben looks at Lily and smiles. He has a block in his mouth and some drool on his chin. He thinks the blocks are tasty and fun. He does not want to stop.
+
+"No, Lily," he says. "I like the blocks. They are yummy and chewy. They are food and toys."
+
+Lily shakes her head. She does not like the blocks in Ben's mouth. She thinks they are dirty and gross. She wants to keep them clean and neat.
+
+"Ben, please," she says. "Give me the block. You can have this one." She holds out a different block for Ben. It is yellow and round.
+
+Ben looks at the yellow block. He does not like it. It is not as good as the block in his mouth. It is boring and smooth.
+
+"No, Lily," he says. "I want this one." He points to the block in his mouth. It is blue and square.
+
+Lily and Ben start to argue. They both want the blue block. They pull and tug on it. They make loud noises with their mouths. They are not happy.
+
+Mom hears the noise from the kitchen. She comes to the living room. She sees Lily and Ben fighting over the block. She sees the messy blocks on the floor. She is not happy.
+
+"Lily, Ben, stop!" she says. "What are you doing? You are making a big mess with the blocks. You are not sharing. You are not being nice."
+
+Lily and Ben stop. They look at Mom. They feel sorry. They know they did something wrong.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," they say. "We were playing with the blocks. We wanted the same one. We did not share. We did not be nice."
+
+Mom nods. She understands. She knows they are still learning. She wants to help them.
+
+"It's okay," she says. "But you need to learn how to play with the blocks. You need to move them with your hands, not your mouth. You need to keep them clean, not messy. You need to share them, not fight over them. You need to be nice, not loud."
+
+Lily and Ben listen to Mom. They want to play with the blocks the right way. They want to make Mom happy.
+
+"Okay, Mom," they say. "We will move them with our hands. We will keep them clean. We will share them. We will be nice."
+
+Mom smiles. She is happy. She gives Lily and Ben a hug. She helps them pick up the blocks. She shows them how to build a bigger tower with many colors. They all play together. They have fun.
+Timmy liked to play with his cat, Fluffy. Fluffy was a lucky cat, because he had a nice home, a soft bed, and a lot of toys. Fluffy also liked to play with Timmy, but sometimes he wanted to go outside and explore.
+
+One day, Timmy asked his mom if he could take Fluffy outside. His mom said no, because it was cold and wet, and there were cars and dogs that could hurt Fluffy. She said Fluffy was safer and happier inside. Timmy was sad, but he obeyed his mom. He played with Fluffy in his room, and gave him a treat.
+
+But Fluffy was curious. He saw a bird on the window, and he wanted to chase it. He saw a gap under the door, and he wanted to sneak out. He waited until Timmy was busy with his blocks, and then he ran to the door. He pushed his head under the gap, and then his body. He was free!
+
+Fluffy ran down the stairs, and out the front door. He saw the bird, and he ran after it. He did not see the car, or hear the horn. He did not see Timmy's mom, or hear her scream. He only saw the bird, and he felt lucky.
+
+But he was not lucky. The car hit him, and he felt pain. He flew in the air, and he landed on the grass. He did not move, or breathe. He was gone.
+
+Timmy heard the noise, and he ran to the window. He saw Fluffy, and he cried. He ran to his mom, and she hugged him. She said she was sorry, and that Fluffy was a good cat. She said they would bury him in the garden, and plant a flower for him. She said Fluffy was in a better place, where he could chase all the birds he wanted. She said she loved him, and Timmy.
+
+Timmy was sad, but he loved his mom. He said he was sorry, and that he missed Fluffy. He said he would never permit his cat to go outside again. He said he would be a good boy, and take care of his toys. He said he loved her, and Fluffy.
+Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to play near the sea. They would run on the sand, make castles, and look for shells. But their mom always told them not to go too close to the water, because it was deep and dangerous.
+
+One day, Tom saw a big shiny shell on the shore. He wanted to have it for his collection. He ran towards it, but Sam stopped him.
+
+"Mom said not to go there," Sam said. "The water can take you away."
+
+Tom did not listen. He was persistent. He wanted the shell. He said to Sam, "I dare you to come with me. Don't be scared. It's just a little water."
+
+Sam was scared, but he did not want to look weak. He followed Tom to the shore. They reached the shell, but then they heard a loud noise. It was a big wave coming towards them. They tried to run back, but it was too late. The wave swept them off their feet and dragged them into the sea.
+
+They screamed for help, but no one heard them. They were alone and afraid. They wished they had listened to their mom.
+
+Luckily, a fisherman saw them and threw them a rope. He pulled them into his boat and took them back to the beach. Their mom was waiting for them, very worried and angry. She hugged them and scolded them.
+
+"You were very foolish and disobedient," she said. "You could have drowned. You should never dare to do something that is dangerous or wrong. You should always respect the rules and the sea."
+
+Tom and Sam felt ashamed and sorry. They learned their lesson. They thanked the fisherman and their mom. They promised to never go near the water again without permission. They realized that being persistent is good, but only when it is for something good.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play at the beach. They make sand castles and look for shells. Sometimes they go into the water, but not too far. The ocean is big and noisy. It makes waves that splash and roar.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily see a boat on the ocean. It is white and red. It has a sail and a flag. They think it is pretty. They want to go closer and see it.
+
+"Let's swim to the boat!" Tom says.
+
+"No, Tom, it is too far. We have to remain here. Mom and Dad said so." Lily says.
+
+"But I want to see the boat. Maybe there are pirates on it. Maybe they have treasure. Come on, Lily, it will be fun." Tom says.
+
+He does not listen to Lily. He runs into the water and swims towards the boat. Lily is scared. She calls for Tom to come back. But Tom does not hear her. He only hears the ocean.
+
+Lily runs to Mom and Dad. She tells them what Tom did. They are worried. They look for Tom. They see him in the water. He is far from the shore. He is tired and scared. He waves his arms and cries for help.
+
+Mom and Dad call for the lifeguard. The lifeguard has a big orange float. He swims to Tom and grabs him. He brings him back to the shore. Tom is wet and cold. He is sorry. He hugs Mom and Dad and Lily. He says he will not swim to the boat again. He says he will remain with them. They are happy. They give him a towel and a hug. They tell him they love him. They tell him to be careful. The ocean is big and noisy. It can be dangerous. But it can also be beautiful. They look at the boat. It is still there. It is white and red. It has a sail and a flag. They think it is pretty. But they are happier to be together.
+Tom was a curious boy who liked to explore new things. One day, he saw his mom cook something in a big pot on the stove. He wanted to know what it was, so he climbed on a chair and peeked inside. He saw some red sauce and some round things that looked like balls.
+
+"Mom, what are you cooking?" he asked.
+
+"I'm cooking spaghetti and meatballs, Tom. It's your favorite. Do you want to help me?" his mom said.
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom said. He loved to help his mom cook. His mom gave him a spoon and a bowl and showed him how to stir the sauce and roll the meatballs. Tom had fun making the meatballs, but he also made a mess. He got sauce on his face and hands and shirt.
+
+"Oops, you're all dirty, Tom. Let's clean you up before we eat," his mom said. She took him to the sink and washed his face and hands. Then she gave him a clean shirt and a napkin.
+
+"Thank you, mom. You're the best," Tom said. He hugged his mom and ran to the table. He was hungry and excited to eat the spaghetti and meatballs.
+
+But before he could sit down, he saw something shiny on the floor. It was his dad's helmet. His dad was a firefighter and he wore the helmet when he went to work. Tom was curious about the helmet. He wanted to try it on and see how it felt. He picked it up and put it on his head. It was big and heavy and covered his eyes.
+
+"Look, mom, I'm a firefighter!" he shouted.
+
+His mom turned around and saw him. She smiled and laughed.
+
+"You're a very cute firefighter, Tom. But be careful, the helmet is not a toy. It's for your dad's safety. Let me help you take it off," she said.
+
+She lifted the helmet off his head and put it back on the floor. She kissed his forehead and said, "Now, let's eat. The spaghetti and meatballs are ready. And after we eat, we can read a book about firefighters. How does that sound?"
+
+Tom nodded and smiled. He was happy. He liked to cook and he liked to pretend, but he also liked to eat and read with his mom. He thought his mom was the best cook and the best storyteller in the world.
+Sara and Tom are going to the mall with Mom. They like the mall. There are many toys and books and clothes. They can play and look and touch.
+
+"Can we go to the toy store, Mom?" Sara asks.
+
+"Yes, we can, but we have to hurry. The mall is going to close soon. It is getting dark outside," Mom says.
+
+They walk fast to the toy store. Tom sees a big truck. He wants the truck. He grabs the truck and runs to Mom.
+
+"Mom, Mom, look! I want this truck. It is big and red and loud. It is easy to drive. Please, Mom, please!" Tom says.
+
+Mom looks at the truck. It is very expensive. She shakes her head.
+
+"Tom, we cannot buy this truck. It is too much money. We have to put it back. Maybe you can ask Santa for it," Mom says.
+
+Tom is sad. He does not want to put the truck back. He cries and kicks and screams.
+
+"Tom, stop that. You are being naughty. You have to share the toys with other kids. You have to listen to Mom. Come on, we have to go. The mall is closing," Mom says.
+
+She takes the truck from Tom and puts it back on the shelf. She holds Tom's hand and Sara's hand. They walk to the exit. The mall is closing. The lights are turning off. The doors are locking.
+
+"Bye, mall. See you next time," Sara says.
+
+Tom is still crying. He wants the truck. He does not say bye to the mall. He is not happy. Mom hugs him and Sara.
+
+"Tom, I know you are sad, but you have to be good. Maybe you will get the truck for Christmas. You have to be patient and kind. I love you and Sara very much. Let's go home and have some cookies and milk," Mom says.
+
+Tom stops crying. He loves Mom and Sara and cookies and milk. He nods and smiles.
+
+"Okay, Mom. I love you too. And I love Sara. And I love cookies and milk. Can we read a story too?" Tom says.
+
+Mom smiles and kisses him and Sara.
+
+"Of course we can. We can read your favorite story. The one with the bear and the honey. How does that sound?" Mom says.
+
+Sara and Tom clap and cheer.
+
+"Yay! That sounds great! We love that story. It is funny and easy and fun. Let's go home, Mom. Let's go home," Sara and Tom say.
+
+They get in the car and drive home. They are happy. They had a good day at the mall. They are a good family. The end.
+One day, Lily and Tom wanted to go for a walk. They put on their boots and coats and went outside. It was a rainy day, and there was a lot of mud on the ground. Lily and Tom liked to splash in the mud and make funny noises.
+
+They saw a big puddle of mud near a tree. They ran to the puddle and jumped in. They felt something soft and squishy under their feet. They looked down and saw a lot of worms in the mud. The worms were wiggling and wriggling. Lily and Tom were surprised and curious.
+
+They picked up some worms and looked at them. They saw that the worms had different colors and sizes. Some were long and thin, some were short and fat, some were red, some were brown, some were green. Lily and Tom thought the worms were unique and interesting. They decided to make friends with the worms and give them names.
+
+They put the worms in a bucket and carried them home. They showed the worms to their mom and dad. They told them about their walk and their new friends. Mom and dad smiled and said they were proud of Lily and Tom for being brave and kind. They helped them make a home for the worms in the garden. Lily and Tom were happy and hugged the worms. They said they would visit them every day and play with them in the mud.
+Anna and Ben were helping Mom to clean the house for Christmas. They liked to dust the shelves and wipe the windows. Mom said they were very good helpers.
+
+"Look, Mom, I found a box of ornaments!" Ben said, holding a big cardboard box. He opened it and saw many shiny and colorful things inside. "Can we put them on the tree?"
+
+"Yes, of course, but be careful. Some of them are very old and fragile. They belonged to Grandma and Grandpa," Mom said, smiling. She took out a glass ball that was light blue and had snowflakes on it. "This one is my favorite. It reminds me of winter."
+
+Anna reached for the ball, but Ben pulled it away. "No, I want it! It's pretty!" he said, holding it tight.
+
+"Hey, give it to me! It's not fair!" Anna said, trying to grab it back.
+
+They started to tug and pull on the ball, making it swing and bounce. Mom saw them and shouted, "Stop! You'll break it!"
+
+But it was too late. The ball slipped from their hands and fell to the floor. It shattered into many pieces, making a loud noise. Anna and Ben gasped and looked at Mom with scared faces.
+
+Mom sighed and knelt down to pick up the pieces. She was sad and angry, but she did not yell at them. She said, "I'm very disappointed in you. You were not careful with the ornament. You were not nice to each other. You ruined something that was very special to me. How do you think that makes me feel?"
+
+Anna and Ben felt sorry and ashamed. They knew they had done something bad. They said, "We're sorry, Mom. We didn't mean to break it. We just wanted to see it."
+
+Mom nodded and hugged them. She said, "I know you didn't mean to, but you have to learn to share and respect other people's things. And you have to be gentle with the ornaments. They are not toys. They are decorations that make the tree look beautiful and happy. Do you understand?"
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and said, "Yes, Mom. We understand. We'll be more careful and nice next time."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Thank you. I love you both. Now, let's finish cleaning and then we can decorate the tree together. Maybe we can find another ornament that you both like."
+
+Anna and Ben smiled and said, "Okay, Mom. We love you too. Let's clean and decorate!" They followed Mom to the living room, where the tree was waiting for them. They hoped to find another light ornament that would make Mom happy.
+Ben likes to read books. He has many books in his room. He has books about animals, cars, and space. He reads a book every evening before he sleeps.
+
+One evening, he picks a book with a yellow cover. The book is about a yellow duck. The duck lives on a farm with other animals. The duck likes to swim in the pond and quack loudly.
+
+Ben opens the book and starts to read. He sees pictures of the duck and the farm. He reads the words under the pictures. He likes the book. He smiles and laughs.
+
+"Quack, quack, quack!" he says, pretending to be the duck.
+
+"Ben, what are you doing?" his mom asks, coming to his room. She sees him holding the book.
+
+"I'm reading a book, mom. It's about a yellow duck. The duck is funny. Look!" he says, showing her the book.
+
+"That's a nice book, Ben. I'm glad you like to read. Reading is fun and good for you. But it's time to sleep now. Say good night to the duck and put the book away," his mom says, giving him a hug and a kiss.
+
+"Good night, duck. Quack, quack, quack!" Ben says, closing the book and putting it on his shelf. He snuggles under his blanket and turns off his lamp.
+
+"Good night, Ben. I love you," his mom says, leaving his room.
+
+Ben closes his eyes and dreams of the yellow duck and the farm. He is happy.
+Ben was sick. He had a fever and a sore throat. He did not want to eat or play. He only wanted to lie in bed and watch TV. His mom was worried. She called the doctor.
+
+The doctor came to Ben's house. He had a bag with tools. He checked Ben's ears, nose, mouth and chest. He said, "Ben, you have a bad cold. You need to take this medicine and drink a lot of water. You will feel better soon."
+
+Ben did not like the medicine. It was bitter and made him cough. He said, "No, no, no! I don't want it! It's yucky!" He pushed the spoon away and cried.
+
+His mom was upset. She said, "Ben, you have to take the medicine. It will help you get well. Please be patient. It's only for a few days."
+
+The doctor was kind. He said, "Ben, I know you don't like the medicine. But it's good for you. How about this? If you take the medicine, I will give you a sticker. You can choose any sticker you want from my bag. Do you like stickers?"
+
+Ben nodded. He liked stickers. He liked cars and animals and stars. He said, "OK, I will take the medicine. But only if I can have a sticker."
+
+The doctor smiled. He said, "Deal. Here you go. Take a sip of the medicine and then you can have a sticker."
+
+Ben took a sip of the medicine. He made a face and swallowed. He said, "Blech! It's still yucky!"
+
+The doctor said, "I know, I know. But you did a great job. Now, you can have a sticker. Which one do you want?"
+
+Ben looked at the bag. He saw many stickers. He saw a red car, a blue whale, a yellow star. He said, "I want the star. It's shiny and pretty."
+
+The doctor said, "Good choice. Here you go. You can put it on your shirt or your book or your wall. Wherever you want."
+
+Ben received the sticker. He was happy. He said, "Thank you, doctor. You are nice."
+
+The doctor said, "You're welcome, Ben. You are brave. I hope you feel better soon. Bye-bye."
+
+The doctor left. Ben put the sticker on his shirt. He said, "Mom, look at my sticker. It's a star. I like it."
+
+His mom said, "I see it, Ben. It's beautiful. I'm proud of you. You took the medicine and you were patient. You are a star." She hugged him and kissed him.
+
+Ben smiled. He said, "I love you, mom. You are a star too."
+Anna and Ben like to play in the park. They like to slide, swing and climb. One day, they see a new equipment in the park. It is a big purple net. It looks fun and hard.
+
+"Let's try it!" Anna says. She runs to the net and starts to climb. She is fast and strong. She reaches the top and smiles.
+
+"Come on, Ben!" she calls. "You can do it!"
+
+Ben runs to the net too. He wants to climb like Anna. But he is not fast and strong. He is slow and small. He struggles to find a good place to hold. He slips and falls. He tries again and again. He gets tired and sad.
+
+"I can't do it!" he cries. "It is too hard for me!"
+
+Anna hears Ben cry. She climbs down the net. She goes to Ben and hugs him.
+
+"It is okay, Ben," she says. "You don't have to do it if you don't want to. You can do other things. You are good at swinging and sliding. You are my friend and I love you."
+
+Ben stops crying. He hugs Anna back.
+
+"Thank you, Anna," he says. "You are my friend and I love you too. Let's go swing and slide together."
+
+They hold hands and run to the swings and slides. They play and laugh. They have fun in the park. They are happy.
+Anna likes to write. She has a book with many pages. She writes with a crayon. She writes her name, and her cat's name, and her mom's name. She writes what she sees, and what she dreams, and what she feels. She writes every day.
+
+Anna has a secret. She does not show her book to anyone. She hides it under her pillow. She thinks her book is special. She thinks her book is magic. She thinks her book can make her wishes come true.
+
+One night, Anna is very sleepy. She writes in her book before she goes to bed. She writes, "I wish I could fly." She puts her book under her pillow. She closes her eyes. She falls asleep.
+
+Anna has a dream. She is flying in the sky. She sees the stars, and the moon, and the clouds. She feels the wind, and the cold, and the freedom. She is happy. She is amazed. She is flying.
+
+Anna wakes up. She remembers her dream. She smiles. She thinks her book is magic. She thinks her book made her wish come true. She hugs her book. She keeps her secret. She likes to write.
+Lila and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. Sometimes they found worms, snails, or beetles. They put them in a jar and watched them move.
+
+One day, they found something different. It was shiny and round and had strange marks on it. Lila picked it up and showed it to Tom.
+
+"Look, Tom, what is this?" she asked.
+
+"I don't know, Lila. It looks mysterious. Maybe it is a treasure or a magic thing," Tom said.
+
+They decided to take it inside and show it to their mom. They ran to the house, holding the shiny thing. They forgot to wipe their feet and left muddy tracks on the floor.
+
+Their mom was not happy. She saw the mess and the shiny thing in Lila's hand.
+
+"What are you doing, Lila and Tom? You are dirty and you brought this dirty thing inside. Where did you find it?" she asked.
+
+"We found it in the garden, mom. It is mysterious. We want to know what it is," Lila said.
+
+"Well, first you need to clean yourselves and the thing. Go to the bathroom and wash your hands and face. Then use this towel to rub the thing and see if it becomes clean," mom said.
+
+She gave them a towel and sent them to the bathroom. Lila and Tom did as they were told. They washed their hands and face and then used the towel to rub the shiny thing. As they rubbed, they saw the marks on it become clearer. They looked like letters and numbers.
+
+"Wow, Lila, look. It has words on it. Maybe it is a message or a code," Tom said.
+
+"Maybe, Tom. But we can't read it. We need to ask mom or dad," Lila said.
+
+They ran back to mom and showed her the shiny thing. Mom looked at it and smiled.
+
+"Lila and Tom, you found a coin. It is not a treasure or a magic thing, but it is still interesting. It is from another country. See, it says 'Canada' and '25 cents'. That means it is worth a quarter of a dollar in Canada. Someone must have dropped it in the garden a long time ago," mom said.
+
+Lila and Tom were amazed. They had never seen a coin like that before. They thanked mom for explaining it to them and asked if they could keep it.
+
+"Of course you can keep it, Lila and Tom. It is your find. But next time, please remember to clean your feet before you come inside," mom said.
+
+Lila and Tom nodded and hugged mom. They put the coin in their jar with the bugs and went back to the garden. They wondered what else they might find there.
+Lily and Ben were playing hide and seek in the park. Lily was the seeker and Ben was the hider. Lily counted to ten and then opened her eyes. She looked around for Ben, but she could not see him. She wondered where he was hiding.
+
+She walked around the park, calling his name. "Ben, where are you? I can't find you!" She checked behind the trees, under the benches, and in the bushes. But she still could not find him. She started to feel sad and worried. Maybe he was lost or hurt.
+
+She decided to look in the playground, where they liked to slide and swing. She ran to the playground and saw a big pile of leaves. She thought maybe Ben was hiding under the leaves. She ran to the pile and started to move the leaves. She hoped to reveal Ben and surprise him.
+
+But as she moved the leaves, she heard a loud bark. She jumped back and saw a big dog coming out of the pile. The dog had brown fur and a wet nose. It looked friendly, but it also looked hungry. It wagged its tail and licked Lily's face. Lily was scared and screamed.
+
+"Help! Help! There's a dog!" she cried.
+
+She heard Ben's voice from behind a slide. "Lily, don't be afraid. It's my dog, Max. I brought him to the park to play with us. He was hiding with me under the leaves. I'm sorry I didn't tell you. I wanted to surprise you."
+
+Ben came out from behind the slide and ran to Lily and Max. He hugged them both and said, "Lily, this is Max. He's my new friend. My mom and dad gave him to me for my birthday. He's very nice and gentle. He won't hurt you. Do you want to pet him?"
+
+Lily looked at Ben and Max. She was still scared, but she also felt curious. She saw that Max had a big smile and a floppy ear. She reached out her hand and touched his ear. It was soft and warm. Max licked her hand and wagged his tail again.
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Hi, Max. You're a good dog. I'm sorry I screamed. I didn't know you were here. You're very cute and fluffy. I like your ear."
+
+Ben smiled and said, "I'm glad you like him, Lily. He likes you too. He's very grateful that you played with him. He was lonely at home. Can we be friends, all three of us?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, Ben. We can be friends. I'm sorry I was sad and worried. I thought you were lost or hurt. I'm happy you're here. And I'm happy you have Max. He's a great surprise."
+
+They hugged each other and then hugged Max. They decided to play together in the park, with the slide, the swing, and the leaves. They had a lot of fun and laughed a lot. They were happy and grateful for their friendship.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big house with a pink door. Sara likes pink. She wants to see the house.
+
+"Can we go there?" Sara asks Ben.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is not nice to enter other people's houses," Ben says.
+
+"But it looks so pretty. Maybe they have toys and candy inside," Sara says.
+
+She runs to the door and knocks. No one answers. She tries to open the door. It is not locked. She enters the house.
+
+"Wait, Sara, don't go!" Ben calls. He follows her.
+
+Inside the house, they see many things. There are pink curtains, pink pillows, pink rugs, and pink pictures. There are also toys and candy on a table. Sara and Ben are happy. They play with the toys and eat some candy.
+
+"Hello, children. Who are you?" a voice says.
+
+Sara and Ben turn around. They see a lady with a pink dress and a pink hat. She smiles at them.
+
+"We are Sara and Ben. We are sorry. We saw your pink door and we wanted to see your house. It is so pretty," Sara says.
+
+The lady laughs. She is not angry. She is nice.
+
+"That's all right. I like pink too. It is my favorite color. You can play with my toys and candy. But you should always ask before you enter someone's house. It is polite," she says.
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They say thank you. They make a new friend. They like the pink house. They like the lady. They have fun.
+Dan and Sam were friends who liked to play with spears. They made them from sticks and stones and pretended to hunt animals. One day, Dan saw a big bird in the sky and wanted to throw his spear at it. He asked Sam to lend him his spear, because it was longer and sharper than his.
+
+"Please, Sam, lend me your spear. I want to catch that bird," Dan said.
+
+"No, Dan, this is my spear. You have your own. Find another bird," Sam said.
+
+But Dan did not listen. He grabbed Sam's spear and ran after the bird. Sam was angry and ran after him. He wanted his spear back. He shouted at Dan to stop, but Dan did not stop. He threw the spear at the bird, but he missed. The spear flew far away and landed in a bush.
+
+Dan and Sam ran to the bush to find the spear, but they could not see it. It was hidden by the leaves and thorns. They tried to reach for it, but they hurt their hands. They started to cry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sam. I should not have taken your spear. It was wrong," Dan said.
+
+"I'm sorry, too, Dan. I should not have been mean to you. You are my friend," Sam said.
+
+They hugged each other and stopped crying. They decided to make a new spear together, and to share it. They also decided to be more careful with their spears, and not to throw them at birds. They learned their lesson.

+
+As they walked inside the tree, Lily saw a camera on the ground. It was old and rusty, but still worked. Her friend picked it up and said, "Let's take a picture!" They posed for a photo and then looked at it on the camera's screen.

+
+He replied, "I'm going to take the spider outside so it can find a new home. We don't want it to scare you anymore."

+Tom tries to get his hat back, but Max pushes him away. He falls on the ground and hurts his knee. He cries and feels alone.
+
+Then, he hears a voice. It is his friend Lily. Lily is a kind and brave girl. She likes Tom and does not care that he is bald. She says, "Tom, are you okay? Don't listen to Max. He is a bully and a liar. You are not ugly or weird. You are beautiful and special. You are my friend."
+
+Lily helps Tom get up and hugs him. She says, "Here, I have something for you. It is lotion. It is good for your head. It makes your skin soft and smooth. It also smells nice. Do you want to try it?"
+
+Tom nods and smiles. He says, "Yes, please. Thank you, Lily. You are very nice and sweet. You are my friend too."
+
+Lily puts some lotion on Tom's head and rubs it gently. She says, "There, how do you feel?"
+
+Tom feels better. He says, "I feel good. I feel warm and cozy. I like the lotion. It makes me happy."
+
+Lily says, "I'm glad. You know, I think you look great without a hat. You don't need to hide your head. You should be proud of who you are. You are unique and wonderful. You have a big heart and a bright mind. That's what matters."
+
+Tom says, "You are right, Lily. I don't need a hat. I don't need to be like everyone else. I need to be myself. I am proud of who I am. And I am grateful for your friendship."
+
+Lily says, "Me too, Tom. Me too."
+
+They hug and smile. They walk to the classroom together. They see Max with Tom's hat. He looks bored and lonely. He tries to make fun of Tom and Lily, but they ignore him. They know he is not worth their time or attention. They know he is unhappy and insecure. They feel sorry for him, but they also feel strong and confident. They have each other, and they have lotion. They have everything they need.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be yourself and be proud of who you are. Don't let bullies or mean words hurt you or change you. Find friends who love you and support you. Share kindness and happiness with others. And always have lotion. Lotion is good.
+Ben and Sam were brothers who liked to play with cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They liked to make them zoom and crash on the floor. One day, they found a big car with a motor in the garage. It was their dad's car.
+
+"Wow, look at this car!" Ben said. "It has a motor that makes it go fast. Let's play with it!"
+
+Sam was not sure. He remembered that dad had told them not to touch his car. He said it was serious and dangerous. "I don't know, Ben," Sam said. "Dad said we can't play with his car. He will be angry if we do."
+
+Ben shrugged. He did not care what dad said. He wanted to have fun. He opened the door and climbed into the car. He found the keys and turned them. The motor made a loud noise. "Come on, Sam, don't be scared!" Ben said. "It's fun!"
+
+Sam was scared. He did not want to get in trouble. He did not want to get hurt. He shook his head and ran away. He went to find mom and tell her what Ben was doing.
+
+Mom heard the noise and saw Ben in the car. She was very angry and scared. She ran to the car and took the keys from Ben. She yelled at him and told him to get out. She said he was very naughty and could have broken the car or hurt himself or someone else. She said he had to go to his room and think about what he did.
+
+Ben was very sad and sorry. He wished he had listened to Sam and dad. He learned that playing with serious things was not fun. He learned that he should obey his parents and be careful. He hoped that dad would forgive him and love him. He hoped that Sam would still be his friend. He decided to be a good brother and a good son from now on.
+Sam and Ben were brothers who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a shiny gold watch in their dad's drawer. They wanted to see how it worked, so they opened it with a screwdriver. But they broke it by mistake. They were scared that their dad would be angry.
+
+"Let's repair it before he comes home," Sam said.
+
+"How?" Ben asked.
+
+"Maybe we can use some glue and tape," Sam said.
+
+They tried to fix the watch, but it looked worse than before. The glue was messy and the tape was cheap. The watch did not tick anymore. They heard their dad's car in the driveway.
+
+"Hide it under the bed," Ben said.
+
+They ran to their room and hid the watch. Their dad came in and said hello. He asked them what they were doing.
+
+"Nothing," Sam and Ben said.
+
+Their dad looked at them and smiled. He knew they were hiding something. He went to their bed and lifted the sheet. He saw the broken watch.
+
+"Boys, what did you do?" he asked.
+
+Sam and Ben looked down and said sorry. They told him they wanted to see how the watch worked, but they broke it and tried to repair it.
+
+Their dad was not angry. He hugged them and said he loved them. He told them he was proud that they wanted to learn, but they should have asked him first. He said the watch was very old and special. It belonged to his grandfather, who gave it to him when he was a boy. He said the watch was worth more than gold, because it had memories and love.
+
+He said he would take the watch to a shop, where someone could repair it properly. He said it would cost a lot of money, but it was worth it. He said he would give the watch to them when they were older, if they promised to take good care of it.
+
+Sam and Ben nodded and said they would. They learned that some things are not cheap, and that they should respect their dad's things. They also learned that their dad was very kind and forgiving. They hugged him and said they loved him too.
+Anna and Ben are going to visit Grandma and Grandpa. They are very happy. They have to pack their bags with clothes and toys. Mom helps them.
+
+"Can I take my teddy bear?" Anna asks.
+
+"Of course, you can. Teddy bear likes Grandma and Grandpa too," Mom says.
+
+"Can I take my car?" Ben asks.
+
+"Yes, you can. But only one car. You have many cars," Mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben pack their bags. They put in their pajamas, socks, shirts, pants, and coats. They also put in their toothbrushes and books. They choose their favorite toys. Anna takes her teddy bear and a doll. Ben takes his car and a ball.
+
+Mom packs a bag too. She puts in some snacks, water, and milk. Milk is good for Anna and Ben. They drink milk every day. Mom also puts in some cookies. Cookies are a treat. They can have cookies at Grandma and Grandpa's house.
+
+"Are we ready to go?" Dad asks.
+
+"Yes, we are. We packed our bags," Anna and Ben say.
+
+"Good. Let's go then. Grandma and Grandpa are waiting for us," Dad says.
+
+Anna and Ben are very excited. They hug Mom and Dad. They take their bags and go to the car. They buckle up their seat belts. They wave goodbye to their house. They are going to have a lot of fun at Grandma and Grandpa's house. They think Grandma and Grandpa are very fair. They love them very much.
+Lila and Tom were playing with a big ball in the park. They liked to bounce the ball and catch it. Sometimes they bounced it very high and it went over the fence. Then they had to run and get it back.
+
+One day, they saw a white dove sitting on the fence. The dove had a shiny ring on its leg. Lila and Tom wanted to see the ring. They bounced the ball very hard and it hit the dove. The dove flew away, scared and hurt.
+
+"Hey, that was not nice!" a voice said. Lila and Tom looked around and saw an old man sitting on a bench. He had a hat and a cane. He was the owner of the dove. "That is my pet. His name is Snowy. He is very smart and friendly. He can carry messages for me. Why did you hurt him?"
+
+Lila and Tom felt sorry. They did not mean to hurt the dove. They just wanted to play. They said sorry to the old man. They asked him if they could help him find Snowy.
+
+The old man smiled. He said, "Thank you. That is very kind of you. Snowy will come back soon. He knows where I am. He is not afraid of me. He loves me. But he is afraid of loud noises and big things. You should be careful when you play. You should not hurt animals. They have feelings too. They need love and care."
+
+Lila and Tom nodded. They learned a lesson. They decided to play more gently. They waited with the old man until Snowy came back. Snowy landed on the old man's shoulder and cooed. The old man gave him a seed and a kiss. Lila and Tom smiled. They made a new friend. They said goodbye to the old man and Snowy. They went home, tired but happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big fountain with water and many coins. Tom said, "Look, Lily, people throw coins in the fountain and make a wish. I want to do that too. Do you have a coin?"
+
+Lily said, "No, I don't have a coin. But maybe we can find one on the ground. Let's look around."
+
+They looked around the fountain, but they could not find any coin. They saw a man selling ice cream. Tom said, "Maybe he has a coin. Let's ask him."
+
+They ran to the man and said, "Hello, mister, do you have a coin? We want to make a wish in the fountain."
+
+The man smiled and said, "Sure, I have a coin. But you have to pay me for it. How about you buy an ice cream from me? They are very cheap, only one coin each."
+
+Tom and Lily thought for a moment. They liked ice cream, but they also wanted to make a wish. They decided to buy one ice cream and share it. They gave the man one coin and took the ice cream. They thanked the man and ran back to the fountain.
+
+They ate the ice cream quickly and enjoyed it. Then they had one coin left. They held the coin together and closed their eyes. They made a wish. They wished for more ice cream. They threw the coin in the fountain and watched it splash.
+
+They opened their eyes and waited. They hoped their wish would happen. But nothing happened. They felt sad and confused. They wondered why their wish did not happen.
+
+Then they heard a voice behind them. It was the man who sold them the ice cream. He said, "Hello, kids, I saw you throw a coin in the fountain. That was very nice of you. But you know what? That was not a real coin. That was a cheap coin. It was made of plastic. It was not worth anything. I gave it to you as a joke. I'm sorry, I did not mean to trick you. Here, take this. It is a real coin. You can make another wish. And here, take another ice cream. It is on me. I hope you forgive me."
+
+Tom and Lily were surprised and happy. They took the coin and the ice cream. They thanked the man and said, "It's okay, mister, we forgive you. You are very kind. Thank you for the coin and the ice cream."
+
+They made another wish. They wished for the man to have many customers and sell many ice creams. They threw the coin in the fountain and watched it sparkle.
+
+They ate the ice cream slowly and enjoyed it. They felt happy and hopeful. They wondered if their wish would happen. They hoped it would. They smiled at each other and at the man. They had a good day.
+Tom was a little boy who liked to crawl. He crawled under the table, he crawled behind the sofa, he crawled in the closet. He liked to find new places to crawl and hide.
+
+One day, he crawled into the garage. He saw many things there. He saw a big car, he saw a bike, he saw a ball. He also saw a saw. It was shiny and sharp. Tom wanted to touch it.
+
+He crawled to the saw and reached his hand. But he did not know that the saw was not a toy. It was a tool that could hurt him. He felt a pain in his finger. He cried out loud.
+
+Mom heard his cry and ran to the garage. She saw Tom and the saw. She was scared and angry. She took Tom in her arms and looked at his finger. It was bleeding. She wrapped it with a cloth and hugged him.
+
+She said, "Tom, you are a good boy, but you should not crawl in the garage. The garage is not a safe place for you. The saw is not a toy. It can cut you. You are lucky it was not worse. I love you, but you have to be careful."
+
+She kissed his finger and gave him a sweet. It was a candy that tasted like cherry. Tom liked it. He said, "I'm sorry, Mom. I won't crawl in the garage again. I love you too. Thank you for the sweet." He smiled and hugged her back.
+Sara and Ben like to print pictures with their crayons. They have a big book of animals and they choose their favorites. Sara prints a cat with black and white fur. Ben prints a lion with a big mane. They are very happy with their pictures.
+
+They want to show their pictures to Mom and Dad, who are in the garden. They run outside with their papers. But the wind is very strong today. It blows their papers away. Sara and Ben are sad and scared. They try to catch their papers, but they are too slow.
+
+"Mom! Dad! Help us!" they cry.
+
+Mom and Dad hear them and see what is happening. They run to help them. They are faster than the wind. They catch Sara's and Ben's papers before they fly away. They hug Sara and Ben and tell them not to worry.
+
+"Your pictures are very nice," Mom says. "We are proud of you."
+
+"Thank you, Mom and Dad," Sara and Ben say. "We love you."
+
+They go back inside and hang their pictures on the wall. They are happy again. The wind can't take their pictures away.
+Sara was a wealthy girl who had many toys and clothes. She liked to go to school and play with her friends. But she did not like to share her things with others. She always said, "This is mine, you cannot use it!"
+
+One day, a new boy came to school. His name was Ben. He did not have many toys or clothes. He wore the same shirt and pants every day. He was not wealthy, but he was happy and kind. He wanted to make friends with Sara and the others.
+
+At recess, Sara took out her big doll and her tea set. She pretended to have a tea party with her doll. Ben saw her and smiled. He walked over to her and said, "Hello, Sara. Can I play with you?"
+
+Sara looked at him and frowned. She said, "No, you cannot. This is my doll and my tea set. You cannot use them. Go away!"
+
+Ben felt sad and hurt. He said, "But I just want to be your friend. I do not have any toys to play with. Can you please share with me?"
+
+Sara shook her head and said, "No, I will not share. You are not my friend. You are poor and dirty. Go away!"
+
+Ben turned around and walked away. He felt lonely and angry. He thought, "Sara is not nice. She is selfish and mean. She does not know how to share. She does not deserve to have so many things."
+
+He saw a big rock on the ground. He picked it up and threw it at Sara's tea set. The tea set broke into pieces. Sara screamed and cried. She said, "You are a bad boy! You broke my tea set! You are mean and rude! Go away!"
+
+The teacher heard the noise and came over. She saw the broken tea set and the rock. She saw Sara crying and Ben standing there. She asked, "What happened here?"
+
+Sara pointed at Ben and said, "He did it! He broke my tea set! He is a bad boy!"
+
+Ben said, "She did not let me play with her. She said I was poor and dirty. She was not nice to me."
+
+The teacher looked at them and said, "Both of you did something wrong. Sara, you should not be selfish and mean. You should share your things with others. Ben, you should not be violent and rude. You should not break other people's things. You both need to say sorry to each other and make up."
