On this particular day, the child decided to explore the world. As the child walked, he noticed a crack in the ground. He bent down to take a closer look, and noticed something original inside the crack. + +The child called out to his mom, "Mama, come look! I see something original in the crack!" his mother responded, "Oh, what is it?" + +The child pointed inside the crack and replied, "It looks like a rock!" His mother explained, "That's a special rock. It's called a crystal, and it's very rare." + +The child was excited to find something so special and original. He put the crystal in his pocket and never forgot his lucky discovery. +James was a hunter. He was adventurous and he liked to explore. He went into the forest to look for some animals. He had to be quiet and he needed to have a plan. + +He included some things in his backpack. He went to the pond and he saw some ducks. He was happy and he decided to take some photos. He had a camera and he was ready to take some pictures. + +After that, he followed some animal tracks. He went through the trees and looked around for something. Suddenly, he saw a deer! He took a photograph. He was so excited and happy. + +Then, he went back home. He had been very adventurous and he was proud of himself. He showed his family the photographs he had taken. They were very impressed. James was very pleased and he promised to go hunting again soon. +Once upon a time there lived a jolly sheep. He was made of wool and lived on a sunny hill. Every morning he would run and play with his friends. One day, one of his friends noticed something was different about the jolly sheep. + +The jolly sheep had grown a little bigger and his wool was much softer. His friends recognised him and called him by name. The jolly sheep was so happy that his friends recognised him. + +From then on, the jolly sheep was even happier. He could jump, run and play with his friends all day long. He was so happy! + +The end. +Mama was having a very busy day. She often felt frustrated and sad, but she didn't want her little boy, Matt, to feel the same way. One day, she tried something new to make things fun for Matt. + +"Let's go outside and draw with chalk," said Mama. + +They put on their jackets and grabbed the chalk. Matt laughed and grinned as he tried to draw circles and lines. He was having so much fun! + +But then, Mama looked down and said, "oh no." + +She had stepped on the chalk. It was broken in pieces. + +Mama felt so regretful. She wished she had been more careful. + +But then, Matt said "Don't worry mama, I can make us some more chalk. It will be safe." + +And Mama smiled. She was proud of Matt's creativity and kindness. The two of them went inside and together they made a new piece of chalk. It was just in time for them to go outside and draw some more. + +Mama was no longer regretful. She was happy to make something they could do together. +Matt was a young boy who loved to make mail for his friends. He tried to make it look nice, with colorful paper and decorations. But it was often hard to make it perfect. + +One day, Matt wanted to make something special for his best friend. So he carefully folded the paper and used lots of nice decorations. When he was finished, he was so proud of himself! + +Matt took the mail to his friend's house and knocked on the door. His friend's mom opened the door and saw the mail. She smiled and said, "This is lovely!" + +But then she added, "But why did you repeat some of the decorations?" + +Matt said, "I wanted it to be perfect." + +His friend's mom looked at him and said, "Some things don't need to be perfect. Sometimes the simple things are the best." + +Matt thought about this and smiled. He thanked his friend's mom, and then went home with an important lesson learned - try hard, but don't repeat everything! +Once upon a time there was a boy called Peter. He was three years old and he loved to explore the world. + +One day, he was walking in the forest and suddenly he heard a noise. It came from a big volcano in the distance. He looked up and saw big puffs of smoke billowing from the top. He wondered what it was and wanted to come closer. + +Peter started to walk towards the volcano. As he got closer he felt the ground getting a bit bumpy. He was careful not to fall. Suddenly he stopped. There was a big, smooth rock right in front of him. He looked up and saw the volcano was just behind it. + +He said, ''What is this big, smooth rock?'' + +That's the edge of the volcano, said the voice of an old man. ''Be careful, it's hot and can be dangerous!'' + +Peter was careful as he stepped onto the rock. He peered over the edge of the volcano and saw a boiling, bubbling lake of lava. It was so hot and exciting! + +So after being very careful and with the help of the old man, Peter safely came closer to the volcano and learnt so much about it. + +The end. +Once upon a time, there was a lively little boy who loved to dress up. One day, his mom and dad brought him to the store to pick out a new costume. He chose a skeleton costume - it was his favorite! + +Later that day, the boy dressed up in his skeleton costume. He put on the costume and felt like a real skeleton! + +The boy had planned to wear his costume to a Halloween party. As he waited for his friends to arrive, he noticed something strange.

To their surprise, they saw a group of skeletons surrounding their house! The skeletons were real, and they seemed like they were up to no good. + +The boy quickly realized what was happening. His lively skeleton costume had foreshadowed that night's events! Thanks to his costume, the boy and his friends were able to fight off the skeletons and save the day. +Once upon a time there was a little boy called John. John had a red finger which he liked to show to everyone. One day, John went to the store to buy a toy. He saw the most expensive toy in the store and he really wanted it. But he didn't have enough money to buy it. So he started to work. He did all kinds of jobs like cleaning the floor and tidying the garden. With hard work and determination, he earned enough money to buy the toy. In the end, John learned a valuable lesson: hard work can help you get things you want in life. +Once upon a time, there were two friends, Jas and Joe. They lived close together and liked to play together. Today, Jas and Joe were going for a drive. Joe was driving the truck, while Jas was sitting in the passenger seat. It was a dark, gloomy day and neither of them understood why the sky was so grey. + +Suddenly, Jas shouted "Look!" to Joe. Joe quickly looked to where Jas was pointing and, in the field they had just passed, he saw a big yellow truck. Both of them looked excited and Joe wanted to turn back around. However, Jas shook his head and said, "No, let's keep going". + +So, Joe kept driving and both of them looked back, watching the yellow truck in the field until it was out of sight. Even though neither Jas or Joe could understand why the sky was so gloomy, they both enjoyed their drive together. +Once upon a time, there was a girl named Lucy. Lucy loved to play games, but she found it hard to beat her friends at them. She often felt sad when all her friends got higher scores than her. + +One day, she asked her mom if she could get better at games. Her mom said yes and gave her some special practice games. Lucy was so happy! + +She tried all the games, but they were dull and boring. Lucy was about to give up, when suddenly she had a great idea. She decided to demand more challenging games. + +Her mom surprised her by getting her all kinds of cool, hard games. With lots of practice and hard work, Lucy eventually got very good at them. She was so proud to get higher scores and beat her friends! +Once upon a time there was a baby who loved to lift things. One day, the baby walked in the park and saw a stranger. The stranger was very quiet and didn't say a word. The baby wondered what to do. + +Suddenly, the baby had an idea. She was going to lift the stranger! The baby smiled, so the stranger smiled too. She grabbed the stranger's hands and started to lift. The stranger was very light. + +Together, the baby and the stranger had so much fun. They laughed and twirled around the park. Everyone was amazed at how high they could lift each other. + +When it was time to go home, the baby waved goodbye to the stranger. She was so happy she made a new friend. From that day on, the baby never forgot the quiet stranger that she had lifted in the park. The end. +Once upon a time there was a boy. He was feeling bored and wanted to do something fun. He looked around and saw a big field. He ran to explore it. + +He saw lots of different things and then he saw two mushrooms. One was big and one was small. He liked the big one but he couldn't decide which one to choose. + +Then he saw a normal looking mushroom. It was just the right size for him. So he chose it and put it in his pocket. He was very happy with his choice. + +The boy went back home and showed his mum what he had chosen. They both smiled and the boy was pleased he had picked the normal mushroom. +Once upon a time, there was a little duck who decided to go on an adventure. The duck paddled away, but then he found himself tired and hungry. He stopped at the edge of a lake and sighed. Suddenly, a voice startled him - it was an old frog! + +The frog said, "Why are you so foolish? Why don't you quit paddling and take a rest? If you don't, you'll get more tired and hungry!" + +The duck thought about it for a moment and then decided to quit. He stopped paddling and finally took a break. After a few minutes, he felt so much better and continued on his adventure, never again feeling so foolish as he did before. +Once upon a time there were two friends, Jack and Jill. They were very good friends and played together in the park every day. + +One day, Jack and Jill were playing in the park when they found a magical memory. It was round and sparkled in the sun. Jack and Jill decided to join hands and take the memory. + +However, to their surprise, the memory was very heavy. As they held it, they started feeling tired. They tried to carry it together, but they just couldn't keep it. Eventually, they had to drop the memory in the park. + +Jack and Jill were sad as they watched the magical memory roll away, but there was nothing they could do. They were both too tired from carrying it. + +So, Jack and Jill sadly returned home, never to find the memory again. +Once upon a time there were two best friends called Jim and Tilly. They liked to play together at the park every day, but today they wanted to do something different. So they looked around for something to do. + +Then Jim saw a switch. He said to Tilly "Let's use this switch!" So they grabbed it and started pressing it up and down. Every time they pressed the switch it made a funny noise. They kept pushing it and then laughing at the noise, so they kept pressing it again and again. + +They were so busy playing and having fun that they forgot to stop. Soon they both started to feel really tired. Tilly said "I'm too tired now to keep pressing it". But Jim said "Let's press it one more time to hear the noise. Then we can stop". So they both pressed the switch one last time and then it was time to go home. + +The next day they were back to the park and Jim said to Tilly "Let's press the switch again". And with a smile, Tilly said "Yes, let's repeat it again!" +Once upon a time there was a boy who wanted to be the best catcher in the world. Every day he would put on his glove, stand in the backyard and try to catch any ball that passed by. + +One day, something very fearful happened. A huge storm came and the wind blew his glove away! The boy started to feel so sad and he ran after his glove, but it was too late. After half an hour of search he finally gave up. + +When he went back home, his dad saw how sad he was and asked him why. The boy told his dad the story. When he finished, the dad said, "You didn't need your glove to become a great catcher. The most important thing is to be brave and trust yourself. Even when things seem fearful, we must always keep going and never give up." + +The boy realized that his dad was right and he set off to play again without the glove. He found out that he didn't need it to have fun and practice catching. He was a great catcher because he tried his best and he never gave up. +Once there was a girl named Sarah. She liked to jog in the park every day. One day, she went to the park to go jogging. As she started running, she felt very dizzy. She stopped and decided to kneel down on the ground. Sarah felt better when she knelt but still a little bit tired. She decided to take a break and sit on the grass. After a short rest, she felt much better and was able to finish her jog. +Once there was a big town. Two boys named Jack and Joe lived there. They were very good friends. + +One day Jack thought it would be funny to give Joe a surprise. So he ran up behind him and said, "Boo!" + +Joe was so surprised he screamed out loud. Everyone in the big town heard him. Everyone looked at him, including Jack. + +Joe was very embarrassed. He wanted to run away, but Jack laughed and said, "Just kidding!" Then they were both happy again. +Once there was a little girl named Hannah. She was 3 years old and had long red hair. Every day her mom would take her to the barber's shop. She would touch all the different objects in the shop while they waited. + +The barber always smiled at Hannah and was very nice to her. He would give her a lollipop to suck on while he cut her hair. After her hair was cut, the barber would hold up a big shiny mirror for her to see. He would help her touch her soft red hair and show her the cool styles he had made. + +Then once every month, mom and Hannah would go back to the barber's shop. The barber and momma would talk and laugh while Hannah touched all the fun things in the shop. Hannah always loved her trips to the barber's shop. +Once upon a time there was a happy little pig named Lily. Lily liked to play with all the animals on the farm. One day, she went to play with her best friend, the goat. But when she got to the goat, she noticed her horn was broken. Lily felt sad and asked the goat, "What happened to your horn?" + +The goat said, "It got broken by accident. I can't fix it." + +Lily said, "I know someone who can fix it. I'll bring him to help you." + +So Lily ran off and brought the farmer to the goat. The farmer was a very kind man. He looked at the broken horn and decided that he could fix it. Using mild tools, he worked on the horn, and in no time it was repaired. + +The goat cheered and thanked Lily for bringing the farmer to help. + +Lily said, "Anytime you need help, just call on your friends. Together we can fix anything." + +The moral of this story is that friends can help each other in difficult times. When one person can't do something alone, friends can come together and fix it. +Once upon a time there was a little girl who went for a walk in the woods. She wanted to explore and have some fun. She soon came across a terrible worm. The worm looked very mean and she was scared. Without thinking, she decided to punish the worm by poking it with a stick. + +The worm was so angry that it began to chase her! The little girl ran as fast as she could until she was out of the woods. But the worm was still behind her. She could hear its horrible cries getting closer and closer. + +Just then, a fairy appeared and told the little girl to yell at the worm. She did as she was told and the worm was so surprised, it stopped chasing her. The fairy thanked the little girl and disappeared just as quickly as she had appeared. + +After that day, the little girl never went back to the woods alone again. She had learnt a valuable lesson about not punishing things before thinking. +Once upon a time there were two friends who liked to sit together. They had fun playing and laughing. +One day they were both sitting in the park, admiring the big trees and the chirping birds, when suddenly the silence was broken by a loud dog bark. +The friends were scared, so they ran to an old lady's house. They knocked on the door and asked for help. The old lady was kind and compassionate. + +She opened the door and invited the friends inside. She explained that the dog belonged to her and had been barking because it was scared, too. +The old lady had been caring for the dog since it was a pup and showed the friends how to show kindness and compassion to every creature. + +The friends thanked her and left, but when they stepped outside, the dog was still barking and running about. The friends felt worried for the dog and wanted to help, but all they had was their friendship. + +The bad ending to this story is that the friends were unable to help the poor animal and the noise of the barking followed them home. The moral of this story is that friendship and compassion can help us in difficult situations, but when faced with an animal in need we must find a way to help them, too. +Once upon a time there was a little girl named Sarah. She was very brave and brilliant. One day, Sarah went to her garden and saw a big tree with lots of juicy red apples. She wanted to pick an apple and pinch it, so she carefully climbed up the tree. + +Just as Sarah was about to reach the juicy red apple, a twig broke and Sarah hurt her finger. She started to cry and felt a pinch. Her mum was worried and took Sarah to the doctor. The doctor gave her some medicine to make her finger better. + +But Sarah did not want to take the medicine. She cried and said no. Her mum kept telling her to take the medicine, but Sarah still wouldn't. Eventually, her mum got very angry and forcefully made Sarah take the medicine. + +The medicine was very bitter and Sarah hated it. But despite this, she drank the medicine until it was finished. Afterward, Sarah's finger felt better and the pinch was gone. + +But too late. The bitter medicine had already done some harm. Sarah got very sick and ended up in the hospital. And she never recovered, making the bad ending even worse. + +Lesson: When someone tells us to do something, it's always better to listen! +Once upon a time there was a little girl called Susie. She wanted some soap to play with, but she didn't have any. + +Susie went to the local store and saw a bar of soap that looked fake. She asked the store owner, "Is this soap real?" + +The store owner chuckled. "No, it's fake. But if you buy it, you can set it in your bathtub at home and pretend it's real." + +So Susie bought the fake soap and took it home. When she got there, she wanted to play with it straight away. But when she tried to make bubbles with it, nothing happened - it was just a fake bar of soap! + +Susie was so disappointed. She hadn't realized that the soap was fake before. She had been tricked! But then she had an idea - Susie set the fake soap in one corner of the tub and put some real soap she had brought with her in the other corner. + +This way, she could make bubbles with the real soap and pretend her fake soap was real. + +Susie had found a fun way to enjoy her fake soap - it may have had a fake start, but it ended up being real fun! +Once there was a little boy named Mark. Mark loved going to the stadium to watch football with his mom and dad. One day, his mom said, "Let's go to the stadium today, Mark!" + +Mark was so excited! He put on his little blue shirt and ran outside. When they arrived at the stadium, the grass was so smooth! He could barely feel it under his feet. He wanted to run so fast he could fly. + +They bought some popcorn and hotdogs and found their seat. Then after a few minutes, the team ran in and everyone cheered. Everyone was so excited! + +A few hours later, the game was over. Everybody said goodbye and left the stadium. But Mark smiled and said, "I had so much fun!" His mom and dad were so proud. +Jimmy was a happy little boy, playing with his stuffed animal friends on the playground. His mother watched closely, smiling proudly at her son's incredible energy and joy. Suddenly, Jimmy heard a noise. He looked up to see a woman in tears. + +The woman was Jimmy's father's wife. Jimmy had never seen his father's wife before, but he knew something important was happening. Jimmy's mother quickly brought him closer and said that the woman was very sad. + +Jimmy thought and thought, trying to figure out why his father's wife was so sad. Suddenly, Jimmy remembered something. He told his mother that his father used to be away for a few days every month. + +Jimmy's mother looked surprised. Before she could speak, something incredible happened. Suddenly, Jimmy's father appeared around the corner. He ran over to his wife and they hugged tightly. Jimmy's mother smiled and told him that his father had come home. + +Jimmy was so happy that the terrible tears had gone away. He smiled, knowing that his father was back and together again with his wife. +Once upon a time there were two friends, Kitty and Mark. That morning they had decided to go on an adventure. + +Mark was carrying a heavy bag. He said to Kitty, “I have a special ornament in my bag.†+ +Kitty looked excited. “Let me see it!†+ +Mark opened the bag and pulled out a shiny ornament. It was round and blue and had sparkles in it. Kitty said, “It is so beautiful!†+ +Mark smiled. “Let's mark the tree with it!†+ +So Kitty and Mark put the ornament on the tree. It looked so pretty! After they finished, they hugged each other and said, “We did it!†+Once upon a time there was a boy. He wanted to go to the shop. He felt excited as he walked there. He looked around the shop. It was big and colourful. He saw lots of nice things. He wanted to buy them all! + +The boy looked at all the toys. He wanted to have some fun with them. He saw some yummy treats. He wanted to eat them too. + +The boy looked around the shop. It was peaceful and quiet. He liked it there. He wanted to stay a while. + +The boy had a nice time looking around the shop. He didn't want to leave. But he had to go home for dinner. He waved goodbye to the shop and walked away. +Once upon a time there was an old lady. She lived in a small house in the countryside. One day the old lady was walking along a path when she suddenly heard a noise. It was coming from an old palm tree. She looked up and saw a little bird with beautiful blue feathers fluttering around in the branches. It had such a sweet song! + +The old lady smiled and said, "What is your name?" The bird chirped back in reply. "My name is Blue," it said. + +The old lady was so happy. She made friends with Blue, and they spent every day together. She would sit outside and listen to Blue's sweet singing while they both watched the sunset. + +The old lady's friends soon heard about Blue and they all started calling him "Old Blue" since he was an old bird. And that is how Old Blue got his name. +Once upon a time, there was a mechanic called Tom. Tom had fixed all sorts of things, from broken bicycles to broken cars. He was very proud of his work. + +One day, Tom was squeezing a long piece of metal in his workshop. He was trying so hard to make it fit just right, but it just wouldn't budge. He tried and tried, but the metal was just too thick. + +Suddenly, his three-year-old daughter Sarah came running into the workshop. She saw Tom squeezing the metal, and said, "Daddy, can I help you?" Tom smiled and said, "I don't think so, Sarah. You're too little to squeeze this metal for me." + +Sarah, however, just wouldn't take no for an answer. She ran over to the metal, took a deep breath, and started squeezing with all her little might. Sure enough, the metal suddenly started to bend and fit into place. + +Tom smiled. He then told Sarah, "There are some things we can do easier if we do them together. Two little minds are better than one big one!" + +Sarah smiled and said, "Let's go and play outside now Daddy!" + +The moral of the story is that sometimes two heads are better than one when solving a problem, no matter how big it seems. +One day, Mia went for a walk and she saw a sock. The sock had a hole in the bottom. Mia saw a man and asked him if he could repair the sock. + +The man said, "Yes, I can help. I can sew the hole and make it like new." + +Mia was a bit nervous but she said, "OK!" + +The man got his tools to sew the hole and it only took a few minutes. He showed the repaired sock to Mia and said, "Look, it is like new now." + +Mia smiled happily. She thanked the man and went on her merry walk with the repaired sock in her pocket. +Once upon a time, there was a boy called Tom. Tom liked to fly kites. Today he wanted to fly a kite, so he ran outside. + +When he got outside, he could see the sky was filled with beautiful kites. He admired them: they were colourful and flew so high! + +He wanted to have one too. He asked his mum for one and she said yes. He was so excited! + +Tom ran to the park holding his kite. He was very hungry. He wanted to fly his kite, but the wind was too strong. Suddenly, his kite was carried away by the wind. He tried his best to catch it, but the kite was too far away. He was so sad. + +Tom started to cry, he was so sad that he lost his kite. His mum took him home and he never flew a kite again. +Frankie was admiring his mom's colorful vase. He thought it was as pretty as a rainbow. + +"Mommy, I really admire your vase," said Frankie. + +His mom smiled and said, "It was a present from your dearest Auntie. She is very special to you.

She gasped. + +"What should I do now?" she asked herself. + +Just then, one of the bears noticed her. + +"Do not worry, little girl," the bear said. "We are just having a play fight. Would you like to join?" + +Bella smiled, and so she joined the bear and his friend. Soon they were all laughing and having fun - even the distant sun looked happy to see them! +On a lovely day, Sarah was outside playing in the garden with her toys. She saw a sparkly rock and decided to pick it up. She brought the rock inside and said to her mom, "Mommy, look at my rock! Can you help me polish it?" +Her mother smiled and said, "Yes, Sarah! We can polish it together." + +She and her mom went to the bathroom and her mom gave her a shampoo bottle. She said to Sarah, "We can use this shampoo to polish your rock with." Sarah was so excited and started to rub the shampoo on the rock. + +But suddenly, Sarah felt a sharp pain on her fingertip and she dropped the rock on the floor. Her mom quickly picked up the rock, but it was now shattered to pieces. The rock was ruined and Sarah started to cry. Her mom tried to hug her and said, "It's okay, sweetheart. We'll find another lovely rock, okay?" + +But Sarah was so sad and she couldn't stop crying. Her heart was broken and no one could help her. +Once upon a time there was a boy, Tom. Tom was an ignorant little boy who never listened to anyone. One day, his mum decided to teach him a lesson. + +She took out an big bowl and put it on the kitchen table. She then took out a large pot of cocoa and began to spread it all over the bowl. Tom watched carefully as his mum stirred the cocoa. + +Tom was amazed and asked his mum what she was doing. His mum replied, “I am spreading cocoa on the bowl so that it can cover it all evenly.†+ +Tom suddenly realised what his mum was doing and said sorry for being ignorant. “That’s okay,†his mum said. “Let’s cheers and have a snack of cocoa spread over the bowl!†+ +Tom happily tucked in and enjoyed the snack. He then promised to never be ignorant again. The end! +Once upon a time there was a little kangaroo. She was hopping through the grass and looking for something tasty to eat. Then she saw a small bush full of juicy red berries. She hopped over to it and started eating the berries. + +As she was eating, a voice called out, "Hello! Can you answer me, little kangaroo?" She looked around and saw an old, wise turtle. The turtle asked her a question, "What are the tastiest berries in the world?" + +The kangaroo thought for a moment, then said, "The red berries in this bush are the tastiest of all!"

The circle was very special; it had been around for many years. + +One day, a little child came to see the circle. She wanted to know what the secret was. But the circle just sat there, silent and still. + +The child asked the old circle what it was and why it was so special. But the circle stayed silent.

He was always careful to protect his home, for he did not want anyone to cut down his trees or hurt his animal friends. + +Every day, the bear searched the wood for any sign of danger. He was soon very good at spotting the bad people that were coming to cut down his trees. + +One day, the chubby bear noticed a bigger group of bad people than normal coming from the forest. He quickly ran around telling all of his animal friends to hide. He hid too, waiting for the bad people to pass. His animal friends were scared, but the chubby bear was brave and kept them safe. + +Finally, after many hours of waiting the bad people left without cutting down the trees. The chubby bear and his animal friends were so happy and thanked him for protecting them. + +The chubby bear knew he could always protect his home and his animal friends if he stayed alert. He promised to never let anybody hurt the forest or its creatures again. +Once upon a time, two friends were walking along. When they got to a restaurant, one of the friends, Sarah, sighed and said she was hungry. She looked at the menu and asked her friend, Bob, what he was going to have.

I much prefer to feel things that are pretty, than to count them". + +Jane thought about this for a moment and decided Jenny might be right. She put away her counting toys and joined in with Jenny, touching the pretty textures they found around them. + +The moral of the story is that it's much more fun to experience things, rather than counting them all the time! +Once upon a time, there was a hurricane that was coming.

The boy replied, "This is a difficult job, I can't do it!" The old man said, "If you cannot do this job then I will have to punish you." + +The boy was scared and he started to clean the shed again. After some time passed he managed to clean the shed and the old man was pleased. + +The old man smiled and said, "Well done!

The fairy was so quiet that he didn't realize she was there. + +John was surprised and asked, "Are you a real fairy?" + +The fairy smiled and said, "I am! And I'm here to give you a special gift." She held up a tiny bag and said, "This is my magical bag. Whenever you lift it, it will give you something special!" + +John was so delighted that he thanked the fairy and gave her a big hug. He then grabbed the bag, lifted it into the air, and was amazed to find it was full of sweets. + +John thanked the fairy again and they both said goodbye.

John found it hard to keep going and he started to feel frustrated. + +Jack laughed. "Don't worry! I have an idea," he said. + +Jack took out his hat and used it to increase the size of the pool. The pool got bigger and bigger and John's frustration started to melt away. + +John smiled. "Thank you Jack," he said. "Now I'm not so hot anymore." + +And they both enjoyed playing together in the sun. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Abbie.
