Bury means we dig a hole and put the bird in it and cover it with dirt. Then we can say goodbye and thank you to the bird for being beautiful and giving us joy." + +Sam nodded. He said, "Okay, let's bury it. I will get a shovel and you get a box. We can put the bird in the box and make it a bed of leaves and flowers." + +They worked together to bury the bird. They said a prayer and sang a song. They felt a little better. They said, "We are glad we found you, bird. We hope you are happy in heaven. We will always remember you." + +They went back to their toys and played some more. They did not see the big black cloud in the sky. They did not hear the thunder or see the lightning. They did not feel the rain until it was too late. The rain came down hard and fast. It filled the garden with water. It washed away the dirt and the box and the bird. It soaked their toys and their clothes and their hair. They screamed and cried and ran to the house. They were wet and cold and scared. They were not glad anymore. They were very, very sad. The end. +Tom and Lily were playing in the living room. They liked to build towers with blocks and knock them down. They saw a cable on the floor. It was long and black and shiny. + +"Look, a snake!" Tom said. He picked up the cable and waved it in the air. + +"No, Tom, that's not a snake. That's a cable. It belongs to the TV. Put it down!" Lily said. She was scared of snakes and cables. + +Tom did not listen. He thought it was fun to pretend the cable was a snake. He made hissing noises and threw the cable at Lily. + +"Stop it, Tom! You're being mean!" Lily said. She ran away from the cable and hid behind the couch. + +Tom chased her with the cable. He wanted to make her laugh. He did not see that the cable was still plugged into the wall. He pulled the cable hard and the TV fell off the stand. + +CRASH! + +The TV broke into pieces. The screen was cracked and the wires were exposed. Sparks flew out of the TV and the cable. The living room was dark and smoky. + +Mom and Dad heard the noise and ran into the living room. They saw the mess and the fire. They were very angry. + +"Tom and Lily, what have you done?" Mom shouted. She grabbed a blanket and tried to put out the fire. + +"Dad, help me!" Dad said. He unplugged the cable and threw it away. He called the fire department. + +Tom and Lily were crying. They were sorry and scared. They did not mean to break the TV and start a fire. They wanted to protect each other from the cable. + +But Mom and Dad did not care. They were too angry. They yelled at Tom and Lily and sent them to their rooms. They said they were not allowed to play with blocks or cables ever again. + +Tom and Lily felt bad. They wished they had listened to Lily and put down the cable. They wished they had not played with the TV. They wished they had a happy ending. +Lila and Ben were excited to go to the park. They liked to play on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. They also liked to look for pebbles on the ground. Pebbles were small and hard and had different colors and shapes. + +One day, they found a very special pebble. It was shiny and smooth and had a rainbow on it. Lila and Ben thought it was the most beautiful pebble they had ever seen. They decided to share it and take turns holding it. + +But when they held the pebble, something strange happened. The pebble changed them. It made them look like the color of the rainbow. Lila turned red, then orange, then yellow. Ben turned green, then blue, then purple. They laughed and giggled and showed each other their new colors. + +They thought it was a fun game, but they did not know that the pebble was magic. The pebble was a trickster and liked to change things. It changed the pebble itself, too. It made it bigger and bigger, until it was too heavy for Lila and Ben to carry. + +They tried to put the pebble down, but it stuck to their hands. They tried to pull it off, but it did not move. They started to feel scared and wanted to go home. They called for help, but no one heard them. + +They wished they had never found the pebble. They wished they could change back to their normal colors. They wished they could play with their other pebbles again. They wished they could be free. +Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play pretend. Today, they pretend to be famous chefs. They have a big kitchen with many pots and pans. They cook yummy food for their guests. + +Tom makes pasta with cheese and sauce. He stirs and stirs. He says, "This is the best pasta in the world!" Anna makes salad with lettuce and tomatoes. She cuts and cuts. She says, "This is the healthiest salad in the world!" + +They also make wine for their guests. They use grape juice and water. They pour and pour. They say, "This is the most delicious wine in the world!" + +They set the table with plates and cups. They invite their guests to sit and eat. Their guests are their teddy bears and dolls. They say, "Welcome to our famous restaurant! We hope you enjoy our food and wine!" + +Tom and Anna are happy. They pretend to be famous chefs. They have fun with their friends. They say, "We love to cook and play!" +Lily liked to play with her uncle's phone. It had many buttons and sounds and pictures. One day, she found a button that said "record". She pressed it and saw a red light. She spoke to the phone and said, "Hello, I am Lily. I like to sing and dance and draw. Do you like me?" + +She pressed the button again and the light turned off. She pressed another button and heard her voice from the phone. She laughed and clapped. She wanted to show her uncle what she did. She ran to the living room, where her uncle was reading a book. She said, "Uncle, uncle, look what I did!" + +Her uncle smiled and took the phone. He pressed the button and heard Lily's voice. He said, "Wow, Lily, you recorded a message. That's very clever. Who did you want to talk to?" + +Lily said, "I don't know. Anyone who listens. I wanted to say hello and tell them what I like." + +Her uncle said, "That's very nice of you, Lily. But you know, you should always ask before you use someone else's things. Maybe someone else wanted to use the phone, or maybe they had something important on it. You should always be respectful and careful with other people's belongings." + +Lily nodded and said, "I'm sorry, uncle. I didn't think about that. Can I still play with your phone?" + +Her uncle said, "Sure, you can. But only if you ask me first, and only if I say yes. And you should also be careful not to delete or change anything on it. OK?" + +Lily said, "OK, uncle. Thank you for letting me play with your phone. I love you." + +Her uncle hugged her and said, "I love you too, Lily. You are a very sweet and smart girl. And you have a lovely voice. Maybe you can record a song for me next time." + +Lily smiled and said, "Yes, uncle. I will sing a song for you. A yellow song, like your favorite color." + +Her uncle said, "A yellow song? What is that?" + +Lily said, "A song that makes you happy and warm, like the sun and the flowers and the stars." + +Her uncle said, "That sounds wonderful, Lily. I can't wait to hear it." +Lily loved to imagine. She liked to pretend she was a princess, a pirate, or a fairy. She had many toys to play with, but her favorite was her horse. It was a big, soft, brown horse that she could hug and ride. + +One day, Lily decided to imagine that she and her horse were in a magic forest. She put a crown on her head and a blanket on her horse. She said, "Come on, horse, let's go on an adventure!" She made her horse gallop around the room, making noises like birds and animals. + +Suddenly, she heard a loud knock on the door. It was her brother, Max. He opened the door and saw Lily and her horse. He laughed and said, "What are you doing, Lily? You look crazy!" + +Lily felt angry. She did not like Max laughing at her. She said, "I'm not crazy, Max. I'm imagining. It's fun. You should try it." + +Max shook his head. He did not like to imagine. He liked to play with cars and robots. He said, "No, thank you, Lily. Imagining is silly. I'm going to play with my toys." + +He left the room and closed the door. Lily shrugged. She did not care what Max thought. She loved to imagine. She said to her horse, "Don't worry, horse. You're not crazy, either. You're wonderful. Let's go to the magic forest again." She made her horse gallop around the room, smiling and dreaming. +Sara loves her pet cat, Max. Max is gray and soft and likes to play with Sara. Sara likes to make things for Max, like toys and beds and hats. One day, Sara finds some yarn and scissors and decides to make a new hat for Max. + +She cuts the yarn and ties it in a circle. Then she puts it on Max's head. "Look, Max, you have a new hat!" Sara says. "You are so pretty!" Max does not like the hat. He feels itchy and hot. He tries to shake it off, but it is too tight. He meows loudly and runs away. + +Sara chases after Max. She wants to play with him and his hat. She does not see that Max is unhappy. She thinks he is having fun. She catches him and hugs him. "Don't run away, Max, I love you!" Sara says. Max scratches Sara's face and bites her hand. He is angry and scared. He wants to be free. + +Sara cries and lets go of Max. She feels hurt and sad. She does not understand why Max is mean to her. She runs to her mom and shows her the scratches and bites. Her mom hugs her and cleans her wounds. She sees the yarn hat on the floor and picks it up. + +"Sara, did you make this hat for Max?" her mom asks. Sara nods and sniffles. "I wanted to make him happy, but he hated it and hurt me," Sara says. Her mom smiles gently and explains. "Sara, I know you love Max and you wanted to do something nice for him, but cats don't like hats. They like to be comfortable and free. Sometimes, what we think is good for others is not what they want or need. We have to respect their feelings and choices, even if they are different from ours. Do you understand?" + +Sara thinks for a moment and nods. She feels sorry for Max and for herself. She realizes that she did not listen to Max or pay attention to his signs. She says sorry to her mom and to Max. She throws away the hat and promises to make something else for Max, something that he will like and enjoy. She learns to be more careful and kind with her pet and with others. She and Max hug and make up. They are happy again. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play together. Today is their birthday. They see a big package in the living room. It has a red bow on it. + +"Wow, what is that?" Anna asks. + +"Maybe it is a present for us!" Ben says. + +They run to the package and try to open it. But it is too hard. They pull and tug, but the tape does not break. + +"Help, help!" they cry. + +Mom and Dad hear them and come to the living room. They see the twins struggling with the package. + +"Happy birthday, Anna and Ben!" Mom and Dad say. "Do you want some help?" + +"Yes, please!" the twins say. + +Mom and Dad help them open the package. Inside, there is a big teddy bear. It has brown fur and a blue scarf. It looks very soft and playful. + +"Wow, it is a teddy bear!" Anna says. + +"It is so cute!" Ben says. + +They hug the teddy bear and thank Mom and Dad. They name the teddy bear Coco. They take Coco to their room and play with him. They have a lot of fun with their new friend. They are very happy. +Tom and Lily were going to visit their grandma. They had to pack their bags with clothes and toys. Tom liked to pack a lot of things. He put his cars, his books, his ball and his teddy in his bag. Lily liked to pack only a few things. She put her doll, her blanket and her crayons in her bag. + +"Tom, your bag is too full!" Lily said. "You can't close it. You have to take some things out." + +"No, I need all my things!" Tom said. "They are all my favourites. I don't want to leave anything behind." + +"But you have to. Look, your bag is so big and heavy. It will squash your clothes and toys. And it will be hard to carry. Grandma will not have room for your bag in her car." + +"I don't care. I want all my things!" Tom said. He tried to close his bag, but it was too hard. He pushed and pulled, but the zipper did not move. He got angry and kicked his bag. + +"Ow!" Tom cried. He hurt his foot. He looked at his bag and saw that it was ripped. His cars, his books, his ball and his teddy fell out. Some of them were broken. Tom felt bad. He wished he had listened to Lily. + +Lily saw that Tom was sad. She felt sorry for him. She went to him and gave him a hug. + +"It's okay, Tom. I'm sorry your bag is broken. And I'm sorry your things are broken. But you still have some things that are not broken. And you can share my things with me. We can play together at grandma's house. She will have more things for us to play with. And she will make us cookies and read us stories. It will be fun. Don't be sad, Tom." + +Tom hugged Lily back. He smiled a little. He said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister. I'm sorry I was silly. I don't need all my things. I just need you. And grandma. And cookies. And stories. And some things to play with. Can you help me pack again?" + +"Of course, Tom. I will help you pack. And I will help you carry your bag. And I will help you fix your things. We will have a good time at grandma's house. Come on, let's pack." +Lily and Ben were hungry. They wanted to eat soup for lunch. Mom was busy in her room. She told them to wait for her. + +But Lily and Ben did not want to wait. They went to the kitchen. They saw a big pot of soup on the stove. It smelled good. + +"Let's have some soup now," Lily said. + +"OK," Ben said. + +They climbed on a chair. They reached for the pot. But the pot was hot. They burned their hands. They dropped the pot. The soup spilled everywhere. It was a big mess. + +"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Lily and Ben cried. + +Mom heard the noise. She ran to the kitchen. She saw the soup on the floor, on the walls, on the table. She saw Lily and Ben with red hands. + +"What did you do?" Mom asked. + +"We wanted soup," Lily said. + +"We were hungry," Ben said. + +Mom was angry. She was also worried. She took Lily and Ben to the bathroom. She put cold water on their hands. She put bandages on them. + +"You should not touch the stove. It is dangerous. You could get hurt. You should listen to me. You should wait for me," Mom said. + +"Sorry, Mom," Lily and Ben said. + +Mom hugged them. She was not angry anymore. She was glad they were OK. + +She took them back to the kitchen. She cleaned the mess. She made more soup. She put it in bowls. She locked the stove. She did not want them to touch it again. + +"Here is your soup. Be careful. It is hot. Blow on it first," Mom said. + +"Thank you, Mom," Lily and Ben said. + +They ate their soup. They liked it. They said sorry again. They learned their lesson. They did not touch the stove anymore. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play at school. They have a big desk with many toys and books. They can draw and read and make things. + +One day, Lily sees a new toy on the desk. It is a train with many colors and sounds. It looks amazing. She wants to play with it. She says to Ben, "Can I take the train? I like it very much." + +Ben says, "No, you cannot take the train. It is mine. I got it for my birthday. It is very special. You can play with something else." + +Lily feels sad and angry. She thinks Ben is not nice. She says, "That is not fair. You have many toys. You can share. I want to play with the train too." + +Ben says, "No, I will not share. The train is only for me. Go away." + +Lily does not go away. She waits for Ben to look away. Then she takes the train and runs to the other side of the room. She smiles and says, "Ha ha, I have the train now. It is amazing. You cannot catch me." + +Ben sees Lily take the train. He feels sad and angry. He thinks Lily is not nice. He says, "Hey, give me back my train. You are a thief. You cannot take my train. It is mine." + +He runs after Lily and tries to get the train. Lily runs away and tries to keep the train. They shout and push and pull. They make a lot of noise. + +The teacher hears the noise. She comes to the desk and sees Lily and Ben. She says, "What is going on here? Why are you fighting? What is this toy?" + +Lily and Ben stop and look at the teacher. They feel scared and ashamed. They do not know what to say. They know they did something wrong. They know they have to say sorry. +Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they find a big box in the park. They go inside the box and pretend it is a house. + +"Let's play marry," Sara says. "You can be the groom and I can be the bride." + +"OK," Ben says. "But what do we need to play marry?" + +"We need a ring and a cake and a party," Sara says. She looks around the box and finds a shiny bottle cap. "This can be the ring," she says. She puts it on her finger. "And this can be the cake," she says. She points to a muffin that someone left on a bench. "And we can invite our toys to the party." + +Sara and Ben run to get their toys. They bring back a teddy bear, a doll, a truck and a ball. They put them in the box and make them sit down. "Now we are ready to play marry," Sara says. + +Sara and Ben hold hands and say, "I do, I do, I do." Then they kiss and hug. They cut the muffin and share it with their toys. They sing and dance and laugh. They have a lot of fun. + +But then they hear a loud voice. It is Sara's mom. She is looking for them. "Sara, Ben, where are you?" she calls. + +Sara and Ben peek out of the box. They see Sara's mom walking towards them. She looks angry. "We have to go," Sara says. "But we can play marry again tomorrow." + +"OK," Ben says. "But don't forget your ring." + +Sara smiles and puts the bottle cap in her pocket. She says goodbye to Ben and their toys. She runs to her mom and holds her hand. She is happy. She thinks playing marry is the best game ever. +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to do different things. Lily loved to draw and paint, and Ben loved to run and jump. One day, their mom took them to the museum, where they saw many things that people made a long time ago. + +"Look, Lily, this is a pot that someone made with clay," mom said, pointing to a display. "They used their hands and tools to shape it and decorate it. They were very creative." + +Lily nodded and smiled. She liked the pot. It had pretty colors and patterns. She wanted to make one too. She looked around and saw a table with some clay and tools. She ran to the table and sat down. She took a piece of clay and started to roll it and squeeze it. + +"Can I make a pot too, mom?" she asked. + +"Sure, honey, you can try. Just be careful and gentle with the clay. It's very soft and sticky," mom said. + +Lily tried to make a pot. She used a tool to make a hole in the clay. She used another tool to make a handle. She used her fingers to make some lines and dots on the clay. She was very happy with her pot. She showed it to mom. + +"Look, mom, I made a pot. It's like the one in the display. Do you like it?" she asked. + +Mom looked at the pot. It was not very round or smooth. It had some cracks and lumps. But it was very colorful and cute. Mom smiled and hugged Lily. + +"I love it, Lily. You are very creative. You tried your best and made something beautiful. You should be proud of yourself," mom said. + +Lily beamed. She was proud of herself. She put her pot on a shelf to dry. She looked for Ben. She wanted to show him her pot. She saw him running around the museum. He was not looking at the displays. He was bored. + +"Ben, come here. I want to show you something," she called. + +Ben ran to Lily. He saw her pot. He frowned. + +"What is that? It's ugly. It doesn't look like a pot. It looks like a mess," he said. + +Lily felt sad. She liked her pot. She worked hard on it. She thought it was pretty. + +"It's not ugly. It's creative. I made it with clay and tools. It's like the one in the display. Mom likes it. She said I tried my best and made something beautiful. You should try too. It's fun," she said. + +Ben shook his head. He didn't want to try. He didn't like clay. He thought it was dirty and boring. He wanted to run and jump. + +"No, thanks. I don't want to try. I don't like clay. I like to run and jump. That's more fun. Come on, let's go," he said. + +He grabbed Lily's hand and pulled her away. Lily dropped her pot. It fell to the floor and broke. Lily gasped. She felt tears in her eyes. She loved her pot. She wanted to keep it. She wanted to show it to dad. Now it was gone. + +"Ben, look what you did. You broke my pot. You were mean and rude. You didn't care about my pot. You didn't care about me. You made me sad," she said. + +Ben looked at the broken pot. He felt sorry. He didn't mean to break it. He didn't mean to hurt Lily. He loved Lily. She was his twin. He wanted to make her happy. + +"I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to break your pot. I didn't mean to hurt you. I love you. You are my twin. I want to make you happy. Please forgive me," he said. + +He hugged Lily. Lily hugged him back. She forgave him. She loved him too. He was her twin. She wanted to make him happy too. + +Mom came to them. She saw the broken pot. She saw the tears and the hugs. She understood what happened. She was sad and happy at the same time. She was sad that Lily's pot was broken. She was happy that Lily and Ben were sorry and forgiving. She was proud of them. They learned a lesson. + +She knelt down and kissed them. + +"It's okay, kids. Accidents happen. I'm sorry that your pot is broken, Lily. It was very creative and beautiful. You tried your best and made something wonderful. You should be proud of yourself. And I'm sorry that you were bored, Ben. It's not easy to enjoy something that you don't like. But you should try to be respectful and curious. You might learn something new and fun. You should be proud of yourself too. You both did something +Lily and Sam were friends who liked to play race and hide. They ran very fast and looked for good places to hide from each other. Sometimes they hid behind trees, sometimes under beds, sometimes in closets. + +One day, they decided to play race and hide in the park. They agreed that Lily would count to ten and then look for Sam. Sam ran as fast as he could and found a big slide. He climbed up the slide and hid behind the top. He thought it was a very good place to hide. + +Lily finished counting and started to look for Sam. She looked behind bushes, under benches, in trash cans, but she could not find him. She started to feel sad and tired. She wondered where Sam was. + +She walked to the playground and saw the slide. She thought maybe Sam was hiding there. She climbed up the slide and peeked behind the top. She saw Sam's feet sticking out. She smiled and shouted, "I found you, Sam!" + +Sam heard Lily's voice and looked down. He saw Lily's face and smiled too. He said, "You are very good at finding, Lily. You won the race and hide game. You are successful!" + +Lily and Sam slid down the slide together and hugged. They were happy and proud. They decided to play race and hide again, but this time they would switch roles. They ran to a new place and started the game again. They had a lot of fun. +Anna liked to sew with her mom. She had a small needle and some thread. Mom had a big needle and a lot of thread. They made pretty things with cloth and buttons. + +One day, Anna saw a bright red button on the table. She wanted to sew it on her doll's dress. She took the small needle and some thread. She did not ask mom. She thought she knew how to sew. + +She put the thread through the hole in the needle. She tried to tie a knot, but it was hard. She pulled the thread too much. The needle slipped from her fingers. It fell on the floor. + +Anna did not see the needle. She stepped on it. It was very sharp. It hurt her foot. She cried out loud. Mom heard her and came running. She saw the needle and the blood. She picked up Anna and hugged her. She said, "Oh, Anna, you should be careful with needles. They are sharp and can hurt you. Next time, ask me before you sew. I will help you and teach you." + +Mom took Anna to the bathroom. She cleaned her wound and put a band-aid on it. She gave her a kiss and a cookie. Anna said she was sorry. She said she loved mom. Mom said she loved Anna too. She said, "Let's go back to the table and finish our sewing. I have a bright red button for your doll's dress. We can sew it together." Anna smiled and nodded. She held mom's hand and walked to the table. She learned her lesson. She was careful with needles. She had fun sewing with mom. +Tommy loved to paint. He had many colors and brushes and papers. He liked to make pictures of his family and his toys and his pets. He wanted to show his mommy and daddy his paintings. He was proud of his work. + +But Tommy's mommy and daddy were busy. They had to work upstairs on their computers. They told Tommy to play quietly downstairs and not to bother them. They said they would look at his paintings later. Tommy was sad. He wanted them to see his paintings now. + +Tommy had an idea. He thought he could paint something big and beautiful that his mommy and daddy would see right away. He looked around and saw the white wall in the living room. He thought it was too plain and boring. He decided to paint it with his colors and brushes. + +He got his paints and started to paint on the wall. He made a big rainbow and a sun and a flower and a bird. He was happy. He thought his painting was very pretty. He thought his mommy and daddy would be happy too. + +But Tommy's mommy and daddy were not happy. They heard him making noises and came downstairs. They saw his painting on the wall and they were angry. They said he had made a big mess and ruined the wall. They said he had to stop painting and go to his room. They said they would have to clean the wall and fix it. Tommy was scared. He did not understand why they were angry. He thought he had made something nice. He started to cry. He was not proud anymore. +Tom and Lily were best friends. They liked to play with dolls and cars and books. One day, Tom saw a shiny red car in the toy shop. He wanted it very much. He asked his mom if he could have it, but she said no. She said they had no money for toys. + +Tom was sad. He thought of a plan. He went to Lily's house and asked if he could borrow her doll. Lily loved her doll very much. She said yes, but only if Tom promised to give it back. Tom said he promised. He took the doll and ran to the toy shop. He gave the doll to the shopkeeper and asked for the red car. The shopkeeper said yes. He gave Tom the car and took the doll. + +Tom was happy. He played with the car all day. He forgot about Lily and her doll. Lily waited for Tom to come back. She missed her doll. She was worried. She went to Tom's house and knocked on the door. Tom opened the door and saw Lily. He hid the car behind his back. He felt ashamed. + +Lily asked Tom where her doll was. Tom lied. He said he lost it. He said he was sorry. Lily was angry. She said Tom broke his promise. She said he was a bad friend. She said she did not want to play with him anymore. She ran away, crying. + +Tom felt very bad. He knew he did a wrong thing. He wished he could give Lily her doll back. He wished he could say sorry. He wished he could be a good friend. He looked at the car. He did not want it anymore. He wished he never took it. He wished he never lied. He wished he never broke his promise. +Lily and Ben like to print pictures with their crayons. They print flowers, animals, and cars. They print on paper, on cardboard, and on the wall. Mommy and Daddy are not happy when they print on the wall. They say, "No, no, no! That is not polite. You have to ask before you print on the wall." + +One day, Lily and Ben find a big book in the attic. The book has many pictures of different seasons. They see snow, rain, sun, and leaves. They think the pictures are pretty. They want to print them with their crayons. They do not ask Mommy and Daddy. They take the book and their crayons to their room. They start to print on the book. + +Mommy and Daddy hear them print. They go to their room. They see the book and the crayons. They see the pictures are ruined. They are very angry. They say, "What have you done? This is a very old and special book. It was Grandma's book. You have to be polite and careful with books. You have to respect other people's things. You are in big trouble." + +Lily and Ben are scared and sad. They say, "We are sorry. We did not know. We just wanted to print the seasons. We like the seasons." Mommy and Daddy say, "Sorry is not enough. You have to learn your lesson. You have to give away your crayons. You have to clean the wall. And you have to stay in your room for a long time. No more printing for you." + +Lily and Ben cry. They hug their crayons. They say, "We love our crayons. We love to print. Please, please, please, do not take them away." Mommy and Daddy say, "No, no, no. You have to face the consequences. You have to be polite and responsible. Maybe one day, you can print again. But not today. Today, you have to say goodbye to your crayons." They take the crayons and the book. They leave Lily and Ben alone in their room. Lily and Ben feel very bad. They have no crayons, no book, and no fun. They have a bad ending. +Lily and Max were playing in the park. They liked to spin on the round thing that went fast. They laughed and held on tight as they spun and spun. + +But then they saw a grumpy man. He was sitting on a bench and he looked angry. He had a big hat and a long coat. He did not like the noise that Lily and Max made. + +"Stop that spinning!" he shouted. "You are making me dizzy and sick. Go away and be quiet!" + +Lily and Max were scared. They stopped spinning and got off the round thing. They did not want to make the man more grumpy. + +But then they saw a spring. It was shiny and bouncy. It was on the ground near the bench. Lily had an idea. + +"Look, Max, a spring!" she said. "Let's play with it. Maybe it will make the man happy." + +Lily picked up the spring and threw it to Max. Max caught it and threw it back. The spring bounced and twisted in the air. It made a funny sound. + +Lily and Max giggled. They thought the spring was fun. They threw it to each other again and again. + +But the grumpy man did not think the spring was fun. He thought it was annoying. He saw the spring flying near his head. He reached out and grabbed it. + +"Stop that bouncing!" he shouted. "You are making me angry and nervous. Give me that spring and go away!" + +Lily and Max were sad. They liked the spring. They did not want to give it to the man. + +But then they had another idea. + +"OK, we will give you the spring," they said. "But first, can you do something for us?" + +"What?" the man asked. + +"Can you spin on the round thing with us?" they said. "It is very fun. Maybe it will make you happy." + +The man looked at the round thing. He looked at the spring. He looked at Lily and Max. + +He sighed. + +"Fine," he said. "But only for a little bit." + +He gave the spring to Lily and Max. He got on the round thing with them. They started to spin. + +At first, the man was grumpy. He did not like to spin. He felt dizzy and sick. + +But then, he started to smile. He felt the wind in his hair. He heard the laughter of Lily and Max. He felt the joy of spinning. + +He forgot to be grumpy. He started to laugh. + +Lily and Max were happy. They liked to spin with the man. They felt the spring in their hands. They felt the fun of spinning. + +They spun and spun and spun. +Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They had a lot of fun on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. They also liked to pretend they were pirates and look for treasure. + +One day, they found a big barrel behind a tree. It was brown and round and had a lid on top. Lily and Tom wondered what was inside. Maybe it was gold or jewels or candy. They wanted to open it and see. + +"Let's open it together," Lily said. "Maybe we can share the treasure." + +"OK," Tom said. "But we have to promise not to tell anyone. It's our secret." + +They nodded and made a pinky promise. They put their fingers together and said, "Pinky promise, no tell." + +They lifted the lid and looked inside. They gasped. The barrel was full of toys. There were dolls, cars, balls, books, puzzles and more. They were so happy. They had found the best treasure ever. + +They took out some toys and started to play. They forgot about everything else. They did not see that some other kids had followed them and saw the barrel. The other kids were curious and jealous. They wanted the toys too. + +They waited until Lily and Tom were busy and then they ran to the barrel. They grabbed some toys and ran away. They did not care about Lily and Tom. They only wanted the toys for themselves. + +Lily and Tom heard some noise and looked up. They saw the other kids running away with their toys. They were sad and angry. They had been tricked. They had broken their promise. + +They ran after the other kids and shouted, "Hey, stop! Those are our toys! Give them back!" + +But the other kids did not listen. They laughed and kept running. They thought they were clever and popular. They did not know that they were mean and selfish. + +Lily and Tom felt bad. They had lost their treasure and their trust. They wished they had never found the barrel. They learned a hard lesson. They learned that some promises are hard to keep and some toys are not worth losing a friend. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and read books. But sometimes they want different things. + +One day, Anna finds a big book with many pictures. She wants to look at the book and learn new words. She sits on the sofa and opens the book. + +Ben sees the book and wants it too. He thinks the book is his. He runs to the sofa and tries to take the book from Anna. + +"Give me the book!" he says. "It is mine!" + +"No, it is mine!" Anna says. "I found it first!" + +They pull the book and make it bend. They are both angry and loud. + +Mom hears them and comes to the sofa. She is not happy. She takes the book from them and puts it on the table. + +"Stop fighting!" she says. "You can share the book. You can take turns to look at it. But first, you need to say sorry to each other." + +Anna and Ben do not want to say sorry. They are still mad. They cross their arms and look away. + +Mom waits for them to say sorry. She is impatient. She pokes them gently on their shoulders. + +"Come on, say sorry," she says. "It is not nice to fight over a book. You can both enjoy it if you are kind and respectful." + +Anna and Ben feel a little bad. They know Mom is right. They look at each other and say sorry. + +"Sorry, Anna," Ben says. + +"Sorry, Ben," Anna says. + +They hug each other and smile. Mom is happy. She gives them the book and helps them to look at it. They see many interesting things and learn new words. They have fun and forget their fight. They are glad they said sorry. +Lila and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a big vine hanging from a tree. It looked like a swing. + +"Let's swing on the vine!" Lila said. + +"OK!" Ben said. + +They ran to the vine and took turns to swing. They had fun. + +But then, a big bee came buzzing near the vine. It was angry. It did not like the children swinging on its vine. + +"Buzz off!" the bee said. "This is my vine!" + +Lila and Ben were scared. They did not want to get stung by the bee. + +"Sorry, Mr. Bee!" Lila said. "We did not know this was your vine. We will go now." + +But the bee did not listen. It flew closer to the children and tried to sting them. + +Lila and Ben ran away from the vine. They hid behind a soft bush. They hoped the bee would go away. + +They waited for a long time. They heard the bee buzzing around the vine. + +They felt sad. They wanted to swing on the vine again. It was fun. + +They thought of a plan. They whispered to each other. + +"Maybe we can share the vine with the bee," Lila said. + +"Maybe we can be nice to the bee and say sorry again," Ben said. + +They decided to try their plan. They came out of the bush and walked slowly to the vine. + +They saw the bee sitting on the vine. It looked tired. + +"Hello, Mr. Bee," Lila said. "We are sorry we swung on your vine. We did not mean to make you angry." + +"Yes, Mr. Bee," Ben said. "We like your vine. It is very pretty. Can we please share it with you?" + +The bee looked at the children. It saw that they were sorry and nice. It felt sorry too. + +"Buzz, buzz," the bee said. "OK, you can share my vine. But you have to be careful. Do not swing too hard or too fast. And do not hurt my vine." + +"Thank you, Mr. Bee!" Lila and Ben said. + +They smiled at the bee. The bee smiled back. + +They swung on the vine together. They had fun. + +They learned to share and be kind. They made a new friend. +One day, a little boy named Ben wanted to play with his toy soldiers. He liked to make them march and fight and pretend he was a strong leader. He did not like to share his toys with his sister, Mia, who was younger than him. He said she was too small and silly to play with soldiers. + +Mia felt sad and lonely. She wanted to play with Ben, but he always pushed her away. She went to her room and found her stuffed monster. She hugged it and said, "You are my friend, monster. You are big and strong and nice. You can play with me." + +Ben heard Mia talking to her monster. He thought it was a stupid toy. He decided to scare Mia and take her monster away. He sneaked into her room and shouted, "Boo! I am a real monster! I will eat your toy monster and you!" + +Mia was scared and cried. She held her monster tight and said, "No, no, no! Go away, Ben! You are a mean monster! You are not my brother!" + +Ben felt bad. He saw that Mia was really afraid and hurt. He realized that he was not a strong leader, but a bully. He said, "I'm sorry, Mia. I was just joking. I don't want to eat your monster or you. I want to be your brother and your friend. Can I play with you and your monster?" + +Mia stopped crying and looked at Ben. She saw that he was sorry and kind. She said, "Yes, Ben. You can play with us. But you have to be nice and share. And you have to say sorry to my monster, too." + +Ben nodded and hugged Mia and her monster. He said, "I'm sorry, monster. You are a good friend to Mia. You are big and strong and nice. Can I march with you and Mia?" + +Mia smiled and said, "Yes, Ben. You can march with us. We can be a team and have fun." + +And so they did. They marched and played and laughed together. They learned that being nice and sharing is better than being mean and selfish. They learned that monsters can be friends, too. +Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play outside. They had a big ball that they could kick and throw. One day, they went to the park with their moms. The park had a lot of grass and trees and flowers. + +"Look, Lily, there is a slide and a swing!" Tom said, pointing to the playground. + +"Let's go, Tom, that looks fun!" Lily said, holding his hand. + +They ran to the playground and took turns on the slide and the swing. They laughed and shouted with joy. They were very jolly. + +After a while, they saw a boy sitting on a bench. He had a small car in his hand, but he looked sad. + +"Hi, what's your name?" Lily asked him. + +"Sam," the boy said softly. + +"Why are you sad, Sam?" Tom asked him. + +"I don't have anyone to play with. And this is my only toy," Sam said, showing them his car. + +Lily and Tom felt sorry for Sam. They wanted to make him happy. + +"Sam, do you want to play with us?" Lily asked him. + +"Yes, please," Sam said, smiling a little. + +"Come on, then. We have a big ball. We can share it with you," Tom said, giving him his hand. + +"Really? Thank you, that's very nice of you," Sam said, getting up from the bench. + +They went to the grass and played with the ball. They kicked it and threw it and caught it. They made a game of who could run the fastest and who could jump the highest. They had a lot of fun. + +Sam was very happy. He forgot about his sadness. He also shared his car with Lily and Tom. They pretended it was a rocket and a boat and a train. They made noises and stories. + +They played until it was time to go home. They hugged and said goodbye. + +"Thank you for sharing your ball with me. You are very good friends," Sam said. + +"Thank you for sharing your car with me. You are very jolly," Lily said. + +"Thank you for playing with us. You are very kind," Tom said. + +They smiled and waved. They hoped to see each other again. They had a wonderful day. +Ben was a boy who liked to play with his toys. He had cars, trains, blocks and a ball. He also had a cat named Max, who was his best friend. Max liked to nap on Ben's bed, or on the sofa, or on the rug. He was a very sleepy cat. + +One day, Ben's mom said, "Ben, it's time for your nap. You need to rest and grow big and strong." Ben did not want to nap. He wanted to play with his toys and with Max. He said, "No, mom, no nap. Play, play, play!" He ran to his room and shut the door. + +Ben's mom was not happy. She knocked on the door and said, "Ben, open the door. You have to nap. It's good for you." Ben did not open the door. He said, "No, mom, no nap. Play, play, play!" He threw his toys on the floor and made a lot of noise. + +Max was not happy either. He was on Ben's bed, trying to nap. He did not like the noise and the toys. He wanted to nap in peace and quiet. He said, "Meow, meow, meow!" He jumped off the bed and scratched the door. + +Ben heard Max and opened the door. He saw Max's angry face and felt sorry. He said, "Sorry, Max. I was bad. I made you miserable. Do you want to nap with me?" Max nodded and said, "Meow, meow, meow!" He rubbed his head on Ben's leg and purred. + +Ben picked up Max and hugged him. He said, "I love you, Max. You are my best friend. Let's nap together." He put Max on his bed and lay down next to him. He said, "Good night, Max. Good night, mom." He closed his eyes and fell asleep. + +Ben's mom smiled and said, "Good night, Ben. Good night, Max. I love you both." She kissed them and turned off the light. She was happy that Ben and Max napped together. They were a very sweet pair. +Tim and Mia are cats who live in a big house with a nice family. They like to play, nap, and eat tuna. Sometimes, they also go outside and explore the garden. + +One day, Tim and Mia find a big can of tuna on the kitchen counter. They are very happy and hungry. They jump on the counter and try to open the can. + +"Tim, how do we open this?" Mia asks. + +"I don't know, Mia. Maybe we can use our paws or our teeth," Tim says. + +They scratch and bite the can, but it does not open. They make a lot of noise. + +Suddenly, they hear a loud bark. It is Rex, the family dog. He is very big and scary. He runs into the kitchen and sees the cats on the counter. + +"Hey, what are you doing? That is my tuna!" Rex growls. + +Tim and Mia are very afraid. They drop the can and run away. Rex chases them. + +"Run, Mia, run!" Tim shouts. + +They run into the living room and hide under the sofa. Rex follows them and tries to reach them with his nose and paws. + +"Go away, Rex! Leave us alone!" Mia cries. + +But Rex does not listen. He barks and growls and scratches the sofa. + +Tim and Mia are very alert. They hope Rex will get tired and leave. + +After a while, they hear the family come home. They hear the door open and close. They hear the family talk and laugh. + +"Rex, what have you done? Look at this mess!" they hear the family say. + +They hear Rex whimper and run away. They hear the family pick up the can of tuna and the sofa cushions. + +Tim and Mia peek out from under the sofa. They see the family is not angry. They see the family smile and pet them. + +"Are you okay, Tim and Mia? You must have been very scared. Here, have some tuna. You deserve it," they hear the family say. + +They see the family open the can of tuna and put some in their bowls. They smell the tuna and feel hungry. + +They come out from under the sofa and walk to their bowls. They eat the tuna and purr. They feel happy and safe. + +They thank the family and cuddle with them. They relax and nap on the sofa. They dream of more tuna. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play together. They have a big family. They have a mom, a dad, a grandma, a grandpa, and a dog. The dog is called Spot. + +One day, Anna and Ben want to climb a tree. They find a big tree in the backyard. They ask their mom if they can climb it. Their mom says yes, but be careful. Anna and Ben are happy. They run to the tree. + +Anna goes first. She grabs a branch and pulls herself up. She finds a nice spot to sit. She looks around and sees the sky, the birds, and the flowers. She feels proud. She calls to Ben. + +"Ben, come up here! It's fun!" + +Ben tries to climb too. He reaches for a branch, but it is too high. He tries another one, but it is too low. He feels sad. He can't find a good spot to climb. + +"Anna, I can't climb! It's hard!" + +Anna looks down and sees Ben. She wants to help him. She has an idea. She remembers something their grandma told them. + +"Ben, don't give up! You can do it! You just have to be original. That means you have to think of a new way to do something. Grandma says we are original twins. We are not like anyone else. We can do anything we want!" + +Ben thinks about what Anna says. He feels better. He looks at the tree again. He sees a vine hanging from a branch. He grabs the vine and swings himself up. He lands next to Anna. He smiles. + +"Anna, I did it! I was original! I used the vine!" + +Anna hugs Ben. She is happy for him. They both laugh. + +"Ben, you are amazing! You are original! We are original twins! We can climb any tree we want!" + +They look at their family. Their mom, their dad, their grandma, their grandpa, and their dog are watching them. They are smiling and clapping. They are proud of Anna and Ben. + +"Anna and Ben, you are wonderful! You are original! You are our family! We love you!" + +Anna and Ben wave to their family. They feel happy. They love their family too. They decide to stay in the tree for a while. They enjoy the view. They have fun. They are original twins. +Lily liked math. She liked to count and add and take away. She had a math book with many fun problems. She wanted to show her math book to her friend Tom. + +But Tom was sick. He had a cold and he sneezed a lot. He stayed in bed and did not go to school. Lily missed Tom and wanted to make him feel better. She decided to visit him and bring him her math book. + +She knocked on Tom's door and his mom opened it. She said, "Hello, Lily. Tom is in his room, but he is not feeling well. He might not want to play." + +Lily said, "That's OK. I brought him my math book. Maybe he will like it." + +She went to Tom's room and saw him lying in bed. He looked sad and tired. He had a tissue in his hand and a red nose. Lily said, "Hi, Tom. I'm sorry you are sick. I brought you my math book. Do you want to see it?" + +Tom said, "No, thank you. I don't like math. Math is hard and boring. I like to draw and color." + +Lily felt hurt. She loved math and she thought Tom would too. She said, "But math is fun and easy. You can learn many things with math. You can count and add and take away. You can make patterns and shapes. You can solve problems and puzzles. Math is not hard and boring. Math is cool and exciting." + +Tom said, "No, it's not. Math is crazy and stupid. You are crazy and stupid for liking math. Go away and leave me alone." + +Lily felt angry and sad. She did not like Tom's words. She said, "You are mean and rude. You are not my friend anymore. I will go away and take my math book with me. You don't deserve it." + +She grabbed her math book and turned to leave. But as she did, Tom sneezed loudly and sprayed his germs all over her. Lily gasped and felt something tickle in her nose. She sneezed too and dropped her math book. It fell on the floor and ripped. Lily cried and ran out of the room. + +Tom's mom heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw Tom's and Lily's sneezes on the wall and the math book on the floor. She said, "Oh, no. What a mess. What did you do, Tom?" + +Tom said, "I don't know. I don't care. I hate math." + +Tom's mom said, "That's not nice, Tom. Math is important and useful. And so is being kind and respectful. You hurt Lily's feelings and ruined her math book. You owe her an apology and a new math book. And you need to rest and take your medicine. Maybe then you will feel better and be a better friend." + +Tom said, "But I don't want to. I don't like math. I don't like Lily. I don't like anything." + +Tom's mom said, "Too bad. You have to. That's the right thing to do. And maybe you will learn to like math and Lily and other things. But if you don't, you will be lonely and unhappy. And you will miss out on a lot of fun and learning." + +Tom said nothing. He lay in bed and felt sorry for himself. He wished he had not been so mean and rude. He wished he had not sneezed on Lily. He wished he had a friend. + +The moral of the story is: Be kind and respectful to others, even if you have different interests and opinions. You never know when you might need a friend. And don't judge something before you try it. You might discover something new and wonderful. And always cover your mouth when you sneeze. You don't want to spread your germs and make others sick. +Mia and Leo were very enthusiastic about going to the farm with their mom and dad. They wanted to see the animals, play in the hay, and pick some corn. They got in the car and drove for a long time, until they saw a big sign that said "Welcome to the Farm". + +"Look, look, there it is!" Mia shouted, pointing out the window. + +"I see it, I see it!" Leo echoed, bouncing in his seat. + +Mom and dad smiled and parked the car near a big red barn. They got out and followed a friendly farmer who showed them around. They saw cows, pigs, chickens, horses, and sheep. They petted some of them and fed them some carrots and apples. They also saw a big field of corn, with tall green stalks and yellow ears. + +"Can we pick some corn, please?" Mia asked the farmer. + +"Sure, you can, but be careful not to get lost in the corn maze," the farmer said, pointing to a path that led into the field. "You have to follow the signs and find your way out." + +Mia and Leo nodded and ran into the corn maze, holding hands. They had fun finding the signs and turning left and right. They also picked some corn and put it in a basket. They felt like explorers in a jungle. + +But after a while, they realized they were not close to the exit. They had taken a wrong turn and ended up in a dead end. They looked around and saw only corn, corn, and more corn. + +"Mia, I'm scared," Leo said, squeezing her hand. + +"Don't be scared, Leo, we'll find our way out," Mia said, trying to be brave. "Let's go back and look for another sign." + +They turned around and walked back the way they came. But they did not see any signs. They saw only more corn. They started to feel tired and hungry. + +"Mia, I'm hungry," Leo said, holding his tummy. + +"Me too, Leo, me too," Mia said, holding hers. "But we have some corn, we can eat some." + +They stopped and opened their basket. They took out some corn and peeled off the husks. They bit into the kernels and tasted the sweet and juicy corn. + +"Mmm, this is good corn," Mia said, smiling. + +"Mmm, yes, very good corn," Leo said, smiling too. + +They ate some more corn and felt better. They also heard a familiar voice calling their names. + +"Mia, Leo, where are you?" It was mom. + +"Mom, mom, we're here!" Mia and Leo shouted, waving their arms. + +Mom saw them and ran towards them. She hugged them and kissed them. + +"Are you okay, my darlings? I was so worried about you," mom said, checking them for scratches and bruises. + +"We're okay, mom, we're okay," Mia and Leo said, hugging her back. "We got lost in the corn maze, but we found some corn and ate some. It was very good corn." + +Mom smiled and said, "I'm glad you liked the corn, but next time, please stay close to me and dad, okay? The corn maze can be tricky and dangerous." + +"Okay, mom, we're sorry, we won't do it again," Mia and Leo said, nodding. + +Mom took their hand and led them out of the corn maze. They found dad and the farmer waiting for them. They thanked the farmer for the corn and said goodbye to the animals. They got in the car and drove back home. They were still enthusiastic about their farm adventure, but they also learned to be careful and listen to their mom and dad. +Tim and Sue were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They had a lot of fun. + +But then they saw a big, ugly dog. It had black fur and yellow teeth and red eyes. It barked and growled and chased them. + +"Help!" Tim and Sue cried. They ran away from the dog. They looked for a place to hide. + +They saw a big tree. They climbed up the tree. The dog could not reach them. It was angry and sad. + +"Go away, dog!" Tim shouted. "You are not nice. You are scary." + +The dog did not listen. It stayed under the tree. It waited for them to come down. + +Tim and Sue were scared. They hugged each other. They wished their mom and dad were here. + +They looked at the sky. They saw the sunset. It was orange and pink and purple. It was pretty. + +"Look, Sue," Tim said. "The sunset is like a painting. It reminds me of home." + +"Me too, Tim," Sue said. "It reminds me of mom and dad. They always watch the sunset with us. They love us." + +They felt better. They smiled. They hoped the dog would go away soon. + +They did not know that their mom and dad were looking for them. They heard their cries. They saw the dog. They ran to the tree. + +"Tim! Sue!" their mom and dad called. "We are here. We will save you. Don't be afraid." + +They scared the dog away. They helped Tim and Sue down. They hugged and kissed them. + +"Are you okay, Tim and Sue?" their mom and dad asked. "We were worried about you. Why did you run away from us?" + +"We were playing, mom and dad," Tim and Sue said. "But then we saw a big, ugly dog. It chased us. It was not fun." + +"We are sorry, Tim and Sue," their mom and dad said. "That dog is not nice. It should not be in the park. We will tell the park man. He will take care of it." + +They walked back to their car. They saw the sunset again. It was still pretty. + +"Thank you, mom and dad," Tim and Sue said. "You are the best. You remind us of the sunset. You are pretty too." +Ben and his wife Kim live in a small house with a big garden. They like to grow flowers and vegetables and play with their dog Max. One day, they see a big truck outside their house. The truck has many boxes and bags on it. + +"Who are they?" Ben asks Kim. + +"They are our new neighbors. They are moving in the house next to ours," Kim says. + +Ben and Kim go outside to say hello. They see a man and a woman carrying things from the truck. The man has a long beard and the woman has a lot of rings on her fingers. They also see a cat and a snake in cages. + +"Hi, we are Ben and Kim. We live here," Ben says. + +"Hi, we are Tom and Sue. We are moving here," the man says. + +"Nice to meet you. Do you like gardening?" Kim asks. + +"No, we don't. We like animals. We have a cat and a snake and more," the woman says. + +Ben and Kim look at the cat and the snake. The cat is dirty and the snake is scary. They do not like them. + +"More? What more?" Ben asks. + +The woman opens another cage. Out comes a big rat. It runs towards Ben and Kim. + +"Ah! A rat!" Ben and Kim scream. + +They run back to their house. They close the door and lock it. + +"That is disgusting!" Ben says. + +"I agree. I do not want to be friends with them," Kim says. + +They hug each other and their dog. They hope the new neighbors will move away soon. +Ben and Mia were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. They found a big pan and some eggs in the fridge. They wanted to make scrambled eggs for breakfast. + +"Can I crack the eggs?" Mia asked Ben. + +"OK, but be careful. Don't make a mess," Ben said. + +Mia took an egg and tapped it on the edge of the pan. The egg cracked and the yolk and the white spilled out. Mia smiled and took another egg. She did the same thing. + +"Look, I cracked two eggs!" Mia said. + +"Good job, Mia. Now we need to squeeze them," Ben said. + +"Squeeze them? How?" Mia asked. + +Ben showed Mia how to use a fork to mash the eggs in the pan. He moved the fork back and forth and made the eggs look like yellow and white bits. + +"Like this. Squeeze them with the fork. It's fun," Ben said. + +Mia took the fork and tried to squeeze the eggs too. She liked how the eggs felt soft and squishy. She laughed and squeezed harder. + +"Look, I squeezed them more!" Mia said. + +"Good job, Mia. Now we need to cook them," Ben said. + +He turned on the stove and put the pan on the fire. He didn't know that the fire was hot and dangerous. He thought it was harmless and pretty. + +"Look, the fire is making the eggs warm and bubbly," Ben said. + +Mia looked at the fire and the eggs. She saw the fire grow bigger and brighter. She saw the eggs turn brown and crispy. She smelled something bad and smoky. + +"Ben, I don't think this is right. The eggs look yucky and the fire is scary," Mia said. + +Ben looked at the fire and the eggs. He saw that Mia was right. The eggs were burned and the fire was too high. He felt scared and sorry. + +"Uh-oh, we made a mistake. We need to turn off the fire and get help," Ben said. + +He reached for the handle of the pan, but it was too hot. He burned his hand and cried out. + +"Ow, ow, ow! It hurts, it hurts!" Ben said. + +Mia heard Ben cry and saw him drop the pan. She saw the pan fall on the floor and make a loud noise. She saw the eggs splatter everywhere. She felt worried and sad. + +"Ben, are you OK? I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Mia said. + +She ran to Ben and hugged him. She tried to make him feel better. She squeezed him gently and said, + +"I love you, Ben. It's OK, it's OK." +Lila and Sam are friends. They like to play in the big building where they live. The big building has an elevator. The elevator goes up and down. It makes a loud noise. + +One day, Lila and Sam want to go to the top floor. They press the button for the elevator. The elevator comes. They get in. Lila presses the button for the top floor. The elevator starts to go up. It makes a loud noise. + +"Wow, this is fun!" Lila says. + +"Yes, it is!" Sam says. + +They look out the window. They see the sky and the birds and the trees. + +"I wish I could own the elevator," Lila says. "Then I could go up and down whenever I want." + +"Me too," Sam says. "But we have to share it with other people." + +They hear a ding. The elevator stops. The door opens. They are at the top floor. + +They get out. They see a big sign. It says: "Roof. No entry." + +"Uh-oh," Lila says. "We are not supposed to be here." + +"Let's go back," Sam says. + +They press the button for the elevator. But nothing happens. The elevator does not come. They are stuck. + +They start to cry. They are scared. They want to go home. + +"Help!" Lila shouts. + +"Help!" Sam shouts. + +They hear footsteps. They see a man. He is wearing a uniform. He has a key. + +"Hello, kids," the man says. "What are you doing here?" + +"We are sorry," Lila says. "We wanted to see the top floor. But the elevator did not come back." + +"Don't worry," the man says. "I will help you. I work here. I fix the elevator. It is broken. But I can make it work again." + +He opens a door. He goes inside. He does something. He comes out. + +"OK, kids," he says. "The elevator is working now. You can go down. But please, do not come here again. It is not safe." + +"Thank you," Lila says. + +"Thank you," Sam says. + +They get in the elevator. The man presses the button for their floor. The elevator starts to go down. It makes a loud noise. + +Lila and Sam hug each other. They are happy. They are going home. +Lily liked to play with her mom's perfume. She thought it smelled like flowers and candy. She wanted to become a princess like in her books. She would spray some perfume on her dress and her hair and pretend to dance in the castle. + +One day, her mom saw her playing with the perfume. She was not happy. She said, "Lily, what are you doing? That perfume is not for you. It is for grown-ups. You are wasting it and making a mess. And you might hurt your eyes or nose if you spray too much." + +Lily felt sad and sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I just wanted to be a princess. I like your perfume. It makes me feel graceful and pretty." + +Her mom hugged her and said, "You don't need perfume to be a princess, Lily. You are already graceful and pretty. You have a kind heart and a bright smile. That is what makes you a princess. And you can still play dress-up, but use your own things, not mine. OK?" + +Lily nodded and said, "OK, mom. I love you. Can I still dance with you?" + +Her mom smiled and said, "Of course, my princess. Let's dance together." And they danced in the living room, happy and sweet. +Ben and Mia are twins. They like to play outside with their toys. One day, they find a big van in the street. It is red and shiny. They want to see what is inside. + +"Can we go in the van?" Ben asks Mia. + +"I don't know. Maybe it is not ours," Mia says. + +"But it looks fun. Maybe there are more toys in there," Ben says. + +He runs to the van and opens the door. Mia follows him. They climb inside the van. They see many things. There are books, balls, dolls, cars, and puzzles. They are very happy. + +"Wow, look at all these toys!" Ben says. + +"Let's play with them!" Mia says. + +They pick up some toys and start to play. They do not see the man who owns the van. He is in the shop. He comes back and sees the door open. He is angry. + +"Hey, what are you doing in my van?" he shouts. + +Ben and Mia are scared. They drop the toys and try to get out. But the man blocks the door. He grabs Ben and Mia and puts them in a cage. He locks the cage and puts it in the back of the van. He drives away. + +Ben and Mia are very sad. They cry and hug each other. They do not know where they are going. They wish they had not gone in the van. They hope someone will find them and help them. They miss their mom and dad. They learn a lesson. They should not go in things that are not theirs. +Tim and Mia like to create things with their toys. They have blocks, cars, dolls, and animals. They make houses, roads, gardens, and zoos. They have fun playing together. + +One day, they decide to create a wild adventure. They use their blue blanket as the sea. They put some blocks on the blanket as islands. They take their animal toys and put them on the islands. They have lions, monkeys, birds, and snakes. They pretend they are explorers and sail to the islands with their cars. + +"Look, Mia, there is a big lion on that island!" Tim says. He points to a block with a yellow toy lion. + +"Wow, Tim, he is very loud and scary!" Mia says. She hears the toy lion roar. + +"Let's go to another island. Maybe we can find some friendly animals," Tim says. He drives his car to another block with a green toy monkey. + +"Hello, monkey, do you want to play with us?" Mia asks. She holds out her doll to the toy monkey. + +The toy monkey nods and takes the doll. He swings it on his tail and makes funny noises. + +"Ha ha, he is very silly and cute!" Tim says. He laughs and claps his hands. + +They play with the monkey for a while. Then they sail to another island with a blue toy bird. + +"Can you sing for us, bird?" Tim asks. He holds out his car to the toy bird. + +The toy bird nods and takes the car. He sings a beautiful song and flies the car in the air. + +"Wow, he is very smart and pretty!" Mia says. She smiles and sings along. + +They enjoy the bird's song. Then they sail to another island with a red toy snake. + +"Be careful, Mia, there is a snake on that island!" Tim says. He sees the toy snake slither on the block. + +"Uh oh, Tim, he is very fast and sneaky!" Mia says. She sees the toy snake hiss. + +"Let's get away from him. He might bite us," Tim says. He drives his car away from the block. + +"Good idea, Tim. He is very mean and scary!" Mia says. She follows him with her doll. + +They sail back to their blanket. They are happy and safe. They hug their toys and each other. + +"We had a wild adventure, Mia!" Tim says. + +"Yes, we did, Tim. And we used our blue blanket to create it!" Mia says. + +They smile and giggle. They love to create things with their toys. They have fun playing together. +Sara and Ben are brother and sister. They like to play in the garden. One day, they find a big red apple on a tree. Sara wants to eat it. She says, "This apple looks delicious. I want to bite it." + +Ben says, "No, Sara. You have to share. Let me have a bite too." He tries to reach the apple, but he is too short. He jumps and jumps, but he cannot touch it. + +Sara laughs. She says, "You are too small, Ben. I am bigger and taller. I can get the apple by myself." She climbs on a branch and grabs the apple. She smiles and says, "Ha ha, I got it. It is mine." + +But then, something happens. The branch breaks and Sara falls down. She drops the apple and it rolls away. Ben runs after it and catches it. He says, "Now I got it. It is mine." + +Sara is sad and hurt. She cries and says, "That is not fair, Ben. You took my apple. Give it back." + +Ben feels sorry for Sara. He says, "I am sorry, Sara. I did not mean to make you cry. Here, you can have the apple. We can share it. You can have the first bite." + +Sara stops crying and smiles. She says, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good brother. I love you." She takes the apple and bites it. She says, "Mmm, it is delicious. Do you want some?" + +Ben nods and says, "Yes, please." He bites the apple too. He says, "Mmm, it is delicious. I love you too." + +They hug and laugh. They share the apple and enjoy it. They are happy. +Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play pretend in the garden. One day, they found a big white sheet in the shed. They decided to use it as a dress and a cape. + +"I am a princess and you are a prince," Lily said. "We are going to marry." + +"Okay," Tom said. "But how do we marry?" + +Lily thought for a moment. She remembered seeing her aunt and uncle marry in a church. They had a ring and a kiss. + +"We need a ring and a kiss," she said. "And someone to say 'I do'." + +They looked around for a ring. They saw a shiny bottle cap on the ground. Lily picked it up and put it on her finger. + +"This is my ring," she said. "Now you have to kiss me." + +Tom nodded. He leaned forward to kiss Lily. But he was clumsy and tripped over the sheet. He fell on top of Lily and they both tumbled to the ground. + +"Ouch!" Lily said. "That hurt!" + +"Sorry!" Tom said. "Are you okay?" + +They looked at each other and started to giggle. They didn't mind the fall. They were happy to be friends. + +They got up and dusted themselves off. They wrapped the sheet around them and held hands. + +"We are married now," Lily said. + +"Yes, we are," Tom said. + +They ran to the swing and played some more. They didn't need a church or a priest. They had a sheet and a bottle cap and a kiss. And they had each other. +Tom was a small soldier who liked to play with his toy gun. He wanted to be big and strong like his dad, who was a real soldier. He always wore his green hat and jacket, and pretended to fight the bad guys. + +One day, he saw a big scale in his mom's room. He wondered how much he weighed. He climbed on the scale and looked at the numbers. He did not understand them, but he saw that they were very low. He thought that meant he was very light and weak. He felt sad and angry. + +He ran to his mom and said, "Mom, why am I so small? I want to be big like dad!" + +His mom hugged him and said, "Tom, you are not small. You are just right for your age. You will grow bigger and stronger as you get older. You are my brave and smart soldier, and I love you very much." + +But Tom did not believe her. He thought she was lying to make him feel better. He said, "No, you are wrong. I am small and weak. I can't be a soldier like dad. I hate being small!" + +He ran away from his mom and went to his room. He threw his toy gun and his green hat and jacket on the floor. He cried and cried, and wished he was big and strong. He did not want to play soldier anymore. He did not want to be himself anymore. He was very unhappy. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play together. Today, they go to the pool with their moms. The pool is big and blue. The sun is hot and bright. + +Tom is nervous. He does not like to swim. He thinks the water is cold and deep. He holds his mom's hand and stays on the edge. + +Lily is not nervous. She likes to swim. She thinks the water is warm and fun. She wears a pink swimsuit and a yellow floaty. She jumps in the water and splashes. + +"Come on, Tom, swim with me!" Lily says. "It is not scary, it is fun!" + +Tom shakes his head. "No, thank you, Lily. I do not want to swim. I like to watch." + +Lily swims to Tom and smiles. "Please, Tom, try it. I will help you. You can wear my floaty. It will keep you safe." + +Tom looks at Lily and her floaty. He looks at his mom and her smile. He feels a little brave. He nods. "Okay, Lily. I will try it. But you have to stay with me." + +Lily claps. "Yay, Tom! You are a good friend. I will stay with you. Come on, let's swim!" + +Tom lets go of his mom's hand and puts on the floaty. He holds Lily's hand and steps in the water. He feels the water on his feet and legs. He feels the heat of the sun on his face. He feels nervous and excited. + +He and Lily swim together. They kick and splash and laugh. Tom likes to swim. He thinks the water is not so cold and deep. He thinks the water is warm and fun. + +He and Lily are happy. They are friends. They like to swim. +Sam and Mia are playing in the park. They like to run and jump and slide. But it is very hot today. The sun is bright and makes them sweat. + +"Let's pause and drink some water," Sam says. He has a blue bottle in his backpack. Mia nods and follows him to a bench. They sit under a big tree. The tree gives them shade. Shade is when something blocks the sun and makes it cooler. + +"Ah, this is nice," Mia says. She drinks from her pink bottle. She looks at the tree. She sees something black on a branch. It is a bird. The bird is singing. Mia likes the bird's song. + +"Look, Sam, a black bird!" Mia says. She points at the branch. Sam looks too. He smiles and waves at the bird. + +"Hello, bird!" Sam says. "What is your name?" + +The bird stops singing. It looks at Sam and Mia. It tilts its head. Then it says, "Caw, caw, caw!" + +Sam and Mia laugh. They think the bird is funny. They say, "Caw, caw, caw!" back to the bird. The bird says, "Caw, caw, caw!" again. They have a conversation. They are happy. They forget about the heat. They make a new friend. +Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big cactus in the park. It has many spikes. + +"Look, Sara, a cactus!" Tom says. "It is green and tall." + +"Yes, Tom, it is a cactus," Sara says. "But we cannot touch it. It can hurt us." + +Tom wants to touch the cactus. He thinks it is fine. He does not listen to Sara. He prepares to touch the cactus. He moves his hand closer and closer. + +"Tom, no, stop!" Sara says. "It is not fine. It is bad. It will make you cry." + +But Tom does not stop. He touches the cactus. He feels a sharp pain. He screams. He pulls his hand back. He sees blood and spikes on his hand. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom says. "It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!" + +Sara runs to Tom. She tries to help him. She takes him to the bench. She looks for a bandage. She is scared. + +"I told you, Tom, I told you," Sara says. "You should not touch the cactus. You should listen to me." + +Tom is sorry. He is sad. He is in pain. He wishes he listened to Sara. He wishes he did not touch the cactus. He learns a lesson. But it is too late. He has a bad ending. +Lily loved to ride her bike. She liked to go fast and feel the wind in her hair. She had a pink bike with a basket and a bell. She put her blanket in the basket. It was her favorite blanket. It was soft and warm and had stars on it. + +One day, she rode her bike to the park. She saw a big slide and a swing and a sandbox. She wanted to play with them. She parked her bike near a bench and took her blanket with her. She put her blanket on the grass and ran to the slide. + +But when she came back, she saw a boy sitting on her blanket. He was playing with a toy car. He did not see her. Lily was angry. She wanted her blanket back. She said to the boy, "Hey, that is my blanket. Give it to me." + +The boy looked at her and said, "No, it is mine. I found it here. It is a nice blanket. Go away." + +Lily did not go away. She said, "No, it is not yours. It is mine. I brought it from home. It has stars on it. See?" + +The boy did not care. He said, "I don't care. It is mine now. You can't have it. Go away." + +Lily and the boy started to yell at each other. They pulled the blanket from both sides. They did not want to share. They made a lot of noise. + +A lady who was sitting on the bench heard them. She was the boy's mom. She came to them and said, "What is going on here? Why are you fighting?" + +Lily and the boy told her their stories. The lady looked at the blanket and saw the stars. She said to the boy, "This is not your blanket. It belongs to this girl. She has proof. You have to give it back to her. You can't take things that are not yours. That is not nice." + +The boy felt ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry. I did not know. I liked the blanket. It was quiet and cozy. Can I play with it for a while?" + +Lily thought for a moment. She said, "Okay, you can play with it for a while. But you have to be nice and share. And you have to give it back to me when I go home." + +The boy nodded. He said, "Thank you. You are nice. Can I be your friend?" + +Lily smiled. She said, "Sure, you can be my friend. What is your name?" + +The boy said, "My name is Max. What is yours?" + +Lily said, "My name is Lily. Do you want to play with me on the slide?" + +Max said, "Yes, I do. Let's go." + +They left the blanket on the grass and ran to the slide. They played together and had fun. They learned to share and be kind. They became friends. +Lily and Max were playing in the park. They saw a big bird with a long neck and legs. It was an ostrich. Lily and Max wanted to act like an ostrich. + +"Look, Max, I can act like an ostrich!" Lily said. She bent down and put her head in the sand. She made a funny noise. + +"No, Lily, that is not how an ostrich acts!" Max said. He ran after the ostrich. He tried to flap his arms like wings. He made a louder noise. + +The ostrich was scared of Lily and Max. It ran away from them. It hid behind a bright red slide. + +"Lily, Max, come here!" their mom called. She saw them acting like an ostrich. She laughed. "What are you doing?" + +"We are acting like an ostrich, mom!" Lily and Max said. They smiled. + +"That is very silly, but also very fun!" their mom said. She hugged them. "But do you know what an ostrich really does?" + +Lily and Max shook their heads. They wanted to know. + +"An ostrich can run very fast, and it can kick very hard. It can also lay big eggs. And sometimes, it can stick its head in the sand, but not to hide. It does that to dig for food or water," their mom explained. + +"Wow, an ostrich is amazing!" Lily and Max said. They learned something new. + +"Maybe next time, we can act like another animal, mom!" Lily said. + +"Sure, that sounds like fun. But now, let's go home. It is time for lunch," their mom said. + +Lily and Max nodded. They followed their mom. They were happy. They had fun acting like an ostrich. +Lily is a dog. She likes to play with her owner, Sam. Sam is a boy. He likes to throw a ball and Lily likes to catch it.

He says she is not his dog. He says he will call her owner. + +Lily is scared. She does not like the man. She does not want to leave Sam. She runs away from the man. She looks for the hole in the fence. She finds it and goes back to the yard. She waits for Sam. + +Sam comes home from school. He sees Lily. He is happy. He hugs her and says he missed her. He says he loves her. He says she is a good dog. He says she is a useful dog. He says he has a test tomorrow and he needs her help. He says they will study together. Lily is happy. She likes to help Sam. She likes to be with Sam. She thinks he is the best owner. She thinks she is the luckiest dog. +Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They saw an enormous ant hill. They wanted to see how big it was. + +"Let's measure it!" Lily said. She ran to the shed and got a ruler. Tom followed her. + +They came back to the ant hill. Lily knelt down and put the ruler next to it. She counted the numbers on the ruler. + +"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten!" she said. "The ant hill is ten long!" + +Tom knelt down too. He put his hand on the ant hill. He felt something tickle his fingers. + +"Ouch!" he said. He pulled his hand back.

She said, "I'm sorry, Tom. The ants don't like us touching their home. They are angry." + +Tom nodded. He said, "Let's leave them alone. They worked hard to make their home." + +Lily agreed. She said, "Let's go play something else. Maybe we can find some flowers or butterflies." + +They left the ant hill. They went to look for other things in the garden. They forgot about the ruler. The ants took it inside their home. They used it to measure their food and tunnels. They thought it was a gift from the big people. +Tom and his wife Ann love each other very much. They are loyal to each other and help each other every day. They live in a small house with a big garden. They have a dog named Spot and a cat named Fluffy. + +One day, Tom and Ann decide to go for a walk in the park. They take Spot and Fluffy with them. They see many flowers, trees, birds and squirrels.

It hits a big tree and makes a big crash. The truck is broken and the driver is hurt. Tom and Ann are shocked. They wonder what to do. + +Tom says to Ann, "We should help the driver. He might need a doctor. Maybe we can call someone on the phone." + +Ann replies, "You are right, Tom. We should help the driver. He might be in pain.

Then she would make funny shapes on her face, like a mustache or a beard. She thought she looked like a grown-up. + +One day, she poured too much shaving cream. It spilled on the floor and made a big mess. She tried to wipe it with a towel, but it only made it worse. She heard her dad coming and got scared. She hid behind the shower curtain. + +Her dad saw the shaving cream on the floor and smelled something smelly. He looked around and saw Lily's feet sticking out from behind the curtain. He pulled the curtain and saw Lily's face covered in shaving cream. He laughed and said, "What are you doing, Lily? You look like a smelly mustache!" + +Lily felt silly and sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, dad. I wanted to play with your shaving cream. I didn't mean to make a mess." + +Her dad hugged her and said, "It's okay, Lily. I'm not mad. But next time, ask me first.

They put some wood on the ground and some wood on top. They made a door and a window. They had fun. + +But then, a big dog came from the other side of the fence. The dog was angry. It barked and growled. It wanted the wood for itself. It jumped over the fence and ran to the wood. It knocked down the house that Lily and Ben had built. It bit and tore the wood. + +Lily and Ben were scared. They cried and ran to Mom. Mom heard the noise and came out. She saw the dog and the wood. She was angry too.

They thanked Mom and said, "We love you, Mom." + +Mom smiled and said, "I love you too, my sweeties. Let's go inside and have some cookies. We can build another house later." +Once upon a time, a little doggy named Spot was looking for his bone. He had buried it in the yard, but now he couldn't find it. He asked his friend, a little bird, "Have you seen my bone? I can't find it anywhere." + +The bird said, "I saw a big dog pass by earlier. Maybe he took your bone." + +Spot was sad and worried.

One day, her mom took her to a store to buy some new shoes. Lily saw a beautiful pair of shoes that were very cheap, but her mom said they were not good quality. + +Lily was sad, but then she noticed another pair of shoes that were more expensive but they were better quality. Her mom explained that sometimes it's better to spend a little more money to get something that will last longer and be better for you. + +Lily learned an important lesson that day.
