He tries to open Sara's box. He can't. The lock is too hard. He leaves Sara's box. He sees Ben's bag. He can. The tie is too easy. He opens Ben's bag. He takes the ball, the doll, and the book. He runs away with them. + +Sara and Ben hear the dog. They look at the toys. They see the dog with Ben's bag. They see Sara's box. They see Ben's bag is empty. + +"Help! Help! The dog took my toys!" Ben cries. + +"Oh no! Your toys are gone!" Sara says. + +Sara feels sorry. She was mean to Ben. She did not share her toys. She did not give him her orange car. She sees Ben is sad. She wants to make him happy. + +"Ben, I'm sorry. I was mean to you. You are my friend. You can play with my toys. You can have my orange car. I will give it to you," Sara says. + +"Really? You will give me your orange car?" Ben says. + +"Yes, I will. Here, take it. It is yours," Sara says. + +She unlocks her box. She takes out her orange car. She gives it to Ben. + +Ben is happy. He smiles. He hugs Sara. He thanks her. + +"Thank you, Sara. You are very kind. You are my friend. I like your orange car. I will share my toys with you too, when I get them back," Ben says. + +Sara and Ben are happy. They play with the toys. They share the toys.

They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big tree with many leaves. They wanted to climb it. + +They held the branches and went up. They were careful not to fall. They reached a high place and looked around. They saw birds, flowers and clouds. They felt happy. + +They saw a hole in the tree. They wondered what was inside. They leaned over to peek. They got a surprise. A fierce squirrel jumped out and made a loud noise. It had sharp teeth and claws. It was angry. + +Lily and Ben were scared. They let go of the branches and slid down.

It was small and dull and had spots of brown and gray. It was an ugly marble. Lily did not like it. She did not want it to be with her other marbles. She picked it up and threw it away. + +But the ugly marble did not go away. It bounced back and hit Lily on the head. It hurt. Lily cried. She picked up the ugly marble again and threw it harder.

But it bounced back again and hit her on the eye. It hurt a lot. Lily screamed. + +Then something strange happened. The ugly marble changed. It became big and shiny and had swirls of blue and green. It was Lily's magic marble. Lily was confused. She looked at the marble and touched it. It felt smooth and warm. She liked it. She smiled. + +She realized that the ugly marble was not really ugly. It was just different. It had a secret. It could become anything it wanted. It could become her magic marble. It could become her friend. Lily hugged the marble and said sorry.

They played together and had fun. +Ben and Mia were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. But they did not like the big dog that lived in the house next to the park.

The dog stopped and looked at the stick. It liked to play with sticks. It ran to the stick and forgot about Ben. + +Mia ran to Ben. She hugged him and checked his arm. He had a small scratch, but it was not bleeding. He was okay. + +"Thank you, Mia!" Ben said. "You saved me from the scary dog!" + +Mia smiled. She was happy that Ben was okay. She was also proud of herself. She was brave, too. + +They decided to leave the park and go home. They did not want to see the scary dog again. They held hands and walked together.

They saw a big box under a tree. It had a lock on it. + +"Let's open it!" Ben said. "Maybe there is a treasure inside." + +They tried to pull the lock, but it was too hard. They looked for a key, but they could not find one. + +"Maybe we need a word to unlock it," Lila said. "Like in a fairy tale." + +They thought of words they knew. They said them out loud. + +"Cat. Dog. Sun. Moon. Star. Flower. Cake. Ball. Book. No, none of these work." + +They were sad. They wanted to see what was in the box. + +Then they heard a voice. It came from the box.

They did not want to play with it anymore. + +They went to their mom and told her what happened. She hugged them and said: + +"Don't worry, my loves. That box is old and mean.

Lily wore a white dress and a flower crown. Ben wore a black suit and a tie. + +"I am the bride and you are the groom," Lily said. "We have to say 'I do' and kiss." + +"OK," Ben said. "But first we need a cake." + +They looked around and saw a big pumpkin on the ground. They picked it up and put it on a table. + +"This is our cake," Ben said. "But we need a knife to cut it." + +They searched for a knife, but they could not find one. They saw a stick that looked like a knife. They grabbed it and ran back to the table. + +"This is our knife," Lily said. "But be careful, it is sharp." + +They pretended to cut the pumpkin with the stick.

She wanted to take some books and put them in her room. + +"Tom, let's go and get some books from the bookshelf," she said to her brother. + +"No, Sara, we can't do that. Those are not our books. Mom and dad will be angry if we touch them," Tom said. + +Sara did not listen to Tom. She ran to the hall and climbed on a chair to reach the bookshelf.

They scolded Sara for being greedy and naughty. They told her that she had to pay for the broken books and that she could not play with any toys or books for a week. They also praised Tom for being honest and obedient. They hugged him and said they were grateful for him. + +Sara felt sorry and ashamed. She wished she had listened to Tom and respected mom and dad's books. She learned that being greedy can cause trouble and that being honest can make people happy. She hoped that mom and dad would forgive her and that Tom would still play with her. +Anna likes to write in her diary every day. She has a pink diary with a lock and a key. She writes about her friends, her toys, her dreams and her feelings. She thinks her diary is her best friend. + +One day, Anna's brother Tom finds her diary under her pillow. He is curious and wants to read it. He tries to open the lock with his fingers, but it is too tight. He looks for the key, but he cannot find it.

Anna says. + +"I just want to see what she writes. She is silly." Tom says. + +Mom sighs and shakes her head. She takes the diary from them and gives it back to Anna. + +"Anna, your diary is your private thing. You can write whatever you want in it. But you should also keep it in a safe place, so no one can find it." she says. + +"OK, mom. I will hide it better." Anna says. + +"Tom, you should respect your sister's diary. You should not try to open it or read it. How would you feel if someone did that to you?" she says. + +"I don't know. I don't have a diary." Tom says. + +He shrugs and walks away. He does not care about diaries. He thinks they are boring. He prefers to play with his cars and trucks. Anna smiles and puts her diary in her backpack. She thinks Tom is silly. She loves her diary. She can't wait to write more in it. +Lily was very happy. She had an invitation to Ben's birthday party. Ben was her best friend. He liked to play with cars and trains.

No one hears them or helps them. The tiger eats them and sleeps. Lily and Ben are gone. The end. +Timmy liked to spin. He spun in his room, he spun in the yard, he spun in the kitchen. He spun so fast that he felt dizzy and happy. But there was one place he did not like to spin. The bathroom. + +The bathroom had a big white thing that made loud noises. Timmy's mom called it a toilet. She said it was for pee and poo. Timmy did not like to pee and poo in the toilet. He was fearful of it. He thought it would suck him in and spin him away. + +One day, Timmy had to pee very bad. He ran to the bathroom, but he was too late. He peed in his pants. He felt wet and sad.

But today the park is boring. There are no other kids. There are no swings or slides. There are only trees and grass. + +"Let's go home," Jen says. "This park is boring." + +"No, let's stay," Tim says. "We can make our own fun. Look, there is a big hill. We can roll down the hill." + +Tim runs to the hill. He lies down on the grass. He starts to roll. He goes faster and faster. He feels happy. + +"Come on, Jen," he shouts. "It's fun. You try." + +Jen does not want to roll. She thinks it is silly. But she does not want to be alone. She follows Tim. She lies down on the grass. She starts to roll. She goes slower and slower. She feels dizzy. + +"Stop, Tim," she says. "I don't like it. It makes me sick." + +But Tim does not hear her. He is too far away. He is at the bottom of the hill. He sees a big rock. He cannot stop. He hits the rock. He falls. He hurts his foot. + +"Ow, ow, ow," he cries. "My foot, my foot. It hurts." + +Jen hears him. She stops rolling. She runs to him. She sees his foot. It is red and swollen.

She holds his hand. They walk slowly to the gate. They leave the park. They do not look back. They think the park is boring. And dangerous. They do not want to come back. +Lila and Ben are playing with rubber balls in the park. They like to throw the balls high in the air and catch them.

She thought it was a good place to hide, so she crawled under the blanket and waited for Tom to find her. + +Tom looked around the garden and saw the flowers, the swing, the sandbox, and the clothesline.

He walked slowly towards the blanket and said, "I wonder who is hiding here?" + +Lily heard Tom's voice and tried to be very quiet. She hoped he would not reveal her. She held her breath and closed her eyes. She felt Tom's hand touch the blanket and pull it away. She opened her eyes and saw Tom's face. He smiled and said, "I found you, Lily! You are a good hider, but not good enough for me!" + +Lily giggled and said, "You are a good seeker, Tom! You are very smart and fast!" She got out from under the blanket and hugged Tom.

She tries the star, but it has too many points. She is confused. + +She asks her mom, "Mom, what shape is this?" + +Her mom looks at the letter and smiles. She says, "That is not a shape, Anna.

She says, "How do we send the letter to grandma?" + +Her mom says, "We mail the letter. We put it in a big box outside. The box is called a mailbox.

Jill and Jack told her that they both wanted the pebble, and that it was too thick to share. + +The lady smiled and said, "I have an idea. Why don't you marry each other, and then you can both have the pebble? It can be your wedding ring. It is big enough to fit both of your fingers." Jill and Jack looked at each other and stopped crying. They liked the idea of marrying each other. They liked each other very much. + +They said, "Yes, we want to marry each other. Thank you, lady." The lady helped them put the pebble on their fingers. It was a bit loose, but they didn't mind. They hugged and kissed and said, "We are married now. We are happy."

They were very happy. + +But then, Tom saw Sam's red suit and wanted it. He said to Sam, "Give me your red suit. It is nicer than mine." Sam said, "No, this is my suit. You have your own suit." Tom got angry and tried to grab Sam's suit. Sam pushed him away and they started to fight. + +Their mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw them fighting over the suits and was very sad. She said, "Stop fighting, boys. You should be thankful for what you have. The suits are both nice and they fit you well. You should not be greedy and want what others have. You should be kind and share with each other. That is what good brothers do." + +Tom and Sam felt ashamed. They realized they were being grumpy and selfish. They said sorry to each other and to their mom. They hugged and decided to swap their suits sometimes. They learned to be thankful and to share. Their mom was proud of them and gave them a big kiss. They played happily with their suits and their toys. They were good brothers. +Ben liked to play with his toy boat in the bath. He pretended he was a sailor and went on adventures. He had a gray hat that he wore when he played. He asked his mom if he could take his boat and hat to the park. His mom said yes, but he had to be careful. + +At the park, there was a big pond with ducks and fish. Ben saw some other kids playing with their boats. He wanted to join them. He put his boat in the water and pushed it with a stick. He said hello to the other kids and asked if he could play with them. They said yes, but they laughed at his gray hat. They said it was old and ugly. + +Ben felt sad. He liked his hat. It was his grandpa's hat. His grandpa was a real sailor and he gave it to him before he went away. Ben missed his grandpa. He wished he was here to play with him. He took his hat off and put it on the grass. He tried to have fun with the other kids, but he felt lonely. + +Then, he heard a loud quack. He turned around and saw a big duck. The duck had his hat in its beak. It was running away with it. Ben shouted, "Hey, that's my hat! Give it back!" He ran after the duck, but it was too fast. It flew away with his hat. + +Ben was very sad. He cried. He lost his hat and his boat. He wanted his mom. He wanted his grandpa. He felt like he had nothing. + +But then, he heard a familiar voice. He looked up and saw his grandpa. His grandpa was smiling. He had his hat and his boat. He said, "I saw what happened, Ben. I was walking by the pond and I saw that duck. I chased it and got your hat and your boat back. Here you go, my little sailor." + +Ben was very happy. He hugged his grandpa. He said, "Thank you, grandpa. I love you. I love my hat and my boat. Can we play together?" + +His grandpa said, "Of course, Ben. I love you too. Let's play. I have some stories to tell you about the sea." + +They played and talked and laughed. Ben forgot about the other kids. He was happy with his grandpa. He felt like he had everything. +Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. But they do not like to share. They always fight over who gets what. + +One day, their mom gives them a candle. It is a cheap candle. It is white and small. It smells like nothing. Mom says they can use it when the power goes out. She says they have to be careful with it. + +Sara and Ben put the candle on their table. They look at it. They both want it. + +"I want the candle!" Sara says. + +"No, I want it!" Ben says. + +They start to pull the candle. They do not see the matches on the table. The matches fall to the floor. One of them lights up. + +The match meets the curtain. The curtain catches fire. Sara and Ben see the fire. They scream. + +"Mom! Mom! Fire!" they yell. + +Mom hears them. She runs to their room. She sees the fire. She grabs a bucket of water. She throws the water on the fire. The fire goes out. + +Mom is angry. She scolds Sara and Ben. + +"What were you doing with the candle and the matches?" she asks. + +"We were fighting over the candle," Sara says. + +"It was a cheap candle," Ben says. + +Mom shakes her head. + +"It does not matter if it was cheap or not. You should not play with fire. You could have burned the house. You could have hurt yourselves. You should share and be nice to each other," she says. + +Sara and Ben feel sorry. They hug mom. They hug each other. + +"We are sorry, mom," they say. + +"We will share and be nice," they say. + +Mom smiles. She hugs them back. + +"I love you, Sara and Ben," she says. + +"I love you, mom," they say. + +They learn their lesson. They do not fight over the candle anymore. They use it only when they need it. They share and be nice to each other. They are happy. +Ben and Lily were having lunch with Mom and Dad. They liked to eat cheese sandwiches and apple juice. Mom gave them each a napkin to wipe their mouths. + +"Thank you, Mom," Ben said. + +"Thank you, Mom," Lily said. + +They ate their sandwiches and drank their juice. They were happy and full. + +Then, Lily saw something on her napkin. It was a big red stain. She did not know what it was. She was scared. + +"Mom, what is this?" she asked, holding up her napkin. + +Mom looked at the napkin and smiled. She was not scared. + +"That is just some juice, Lily. You spilled some on your napkin. It is not bad. It is just juice," she said. + +Lily did not believe Mom. She thought it was blood. She was upset. + +"No, Mom, it is blood! It is blood! I am hurt! I am hurt!" she cried. + +She threw her napkin on the floor and ran to her room. She slammed the door. + +Mom and Dad paused. They did not know what to do. They felt sorry for Lily. + +"Ben, can you go and talk to Lily? She is your sister. Maybe she will listen to you," Mom said. + +Ben nodded. He took his napkin and went to Lily's room. He knocked on the door. + +"Lily, can I come in?" he asked. + +Lily did not answer. She was still crying. + +Ben opened the door and saw Lily on her bed. She was holding her teddy bear. She looked sad. + +"Hi, Lily. I brought you my napkin. See? It has some juice on it too. It is not blood. It is just juice. Mom was right," he said. + +He showed her his napkin. He hoped she would calm down. + +Lily looked at his napkin. She saw the red stain. She was still scared. + +"No, Ben, it is blood! It is blood! You are hurt too! You are hurt too!" she screamed. + +She threw her teddy bear at him and hid under the covers. + +Ben sighed. He did not know what to say. He put his napkin on the floor and sat on the bed. + +"Lily, it is not blood. It is just juice. We are not hurt. We are fine. Please, stop crying. I love you," he said. + +He tried to hug her. He hoped she would feel better. +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with dolls and cars. One day, they find a big box in the park. They want to see what is inside. + +Lily says, "I will open the box. It is easy for me." She pulls the lid hard, but it does not move. She tries again, but it is still stuck. + +Tom says, "Let me try. I am strong." He pushes the lid with his hands, but it does not budge. He kicks the lid with his feet, but it is still closed. + +Lily and Tom are sad. They cannot open the box. They sit on the grass and look at the box. + +Then, they hear a noise. It is a cat. The cat is inside the box. It has made a hole in the side. It pokes its head out and meows. + +Lily and Tom are surprised. They smile and laugh. They say, "Hello, cat. Do you want to play with us?" The cat nods and jumps out of the box. It has soft fur and long hair. It rubs against Lily and Tom and purrs. + +Lily and Tom are happy. They have a new friend. They play with the cat and the box. They forget about the lid. They have fun. +Lily and Max were playing outside in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and make mud pies. They had a lot of fun, but they also got very dirty. Their clothes, hands and faces were covered in mud. + +"Look at us, we are mud monsters!" Max said, laughing. + +"Roar!" Lily said, pretending to be scary. + +They heard their mom calling them from the house. "Lily, Max, time to come in and get clean!" + +They ran to the house, leaving a trail of mud behind them. Their mom was not happy. She looked at them and shook her head. + +"You two are a mess! You need to take a bath right now!" she said. + +"But mom, we don't want to take a bath. We like being mud monsters!" Lily said. + +"Too bad, you have to. You can't stay dirty like that. It's not good for your skin and hair. And it's uncomfortable. Don't you feel itchy and sticky?" mom said. + +Lily and Max thought about it. They did feel itchy and sticky. And they smelled bad too. Maybe mom was right. Maybe being clean was better than being mud monsters. + +"Okay, mom, we will take a bath. But can we play with the bubbles?" Max said. + +"Sure, you can play with the bubbles. But only after you wash off all the mud. Come on, let's go to the bathroom." mom said. + +She took them to the bathroom and filled the tub with warm water and soap. She helped them take off their clothes and get in the tub. She scrubbed them with a sponge and rinsed them with a shower. She made them laugh by making funny shapes with their hair and the bubbles. They splashed and giggled and forgot about the mud. + +They got out of the tub and wrapped themselves in fluffy towels. Mom dried them and put on some clean clothes. She hugged them and kissed them. + +"There, now you are clean and cozy. Don't you feel much better?" she said. + +Lily and Max nodded. They did feel much better. They felt soft and smooth and fresh. They smelled nice too. + +"Thank you, mom, for making us clean. We love you!" they said. + +"I love you too, my sweeties. Now, how about some cookies and milk?" mom said. + +They smiled and followed her to the kitchen. They decided that being clean was not so bad after all. Maybe they could be mud monsters again another day. But only for a little while. +Sara and Ben like to play with plastic toys. They have many plastic toys in their room. They have plastic cars, plastic dolls, plastic animals and plastic blocks. They like to make stories with their plastic toys. + +One day, Sara and Ben decide to spend the day at the park. They take some of their plastic toys with them. They put them in a big plastic bag. They walk to the park with their mom. They are happy and excited. + +At the park, they see a big slide. They want to go on the slide. They leave their plastic bag under a tree. They run to the slide. They take turns to slide down. They laugh and scream. They have fun. + +But then, a big wind comes. It blows the plastic bag away. The plastic toys fly out of the bag. They go everywhere. Sara and Ben do not see. They are too busy sliding. + +When they are done sliding, they feel dizzy. They sit on the grass. They drink some water. They look for their plastic bag. They do not see it. They see their plastic toys scattered all over the park. They are sad and scared. + +They run to their mom. They tell her what happened. Their mom hugs them. She tells them not to worry. She helps them find their plastic toys. They pick them up and put them back in the bag. They say sorry to their mom. Their mom says it is okay. She says they can still play with their plastic toys. She says they can also share them with other kids. Sara and Ben smile. They are happy again. They spend the rest of the day playing with their plastic toys and their new friends. +Lily and Sam are friends. They like to play chess. Chess is a game with black and white pieces. They move the pieces on a board with squares. + +One day, Lily has a new toy. It is a record. A record is a round thing that makes music. Lily puts the record on a machine. The machine has a needle. The needle touches the record. The music starts. + +"Listen, Sam, this is my favorite song!" Lily says. She sings along with the record. She dances and claps. + +Sam does not like the music. He thinks it is too loud and crazy. He wants to play chess. He tries to move a piece on the board. But Lily bumps into him. The piece falls off the board. + +"Hey, Lily, stop!" Sam says. He is angry. "You are ruining the game! I want to play chess, not listen to your crazy record!" + +Lily does not stop. She likes the music. She thinks it is fun and happy. She does not care about the game. She wants to dance and sing. + +"Fine, then I will play chess by myself!" Sam says. He picks up the piece and puts it back on the board. He moves another piece. He pretends that he is playing with someone else. + +Lily and Sam are not friends anymore. They are sad and mad. They do not talk to each other. They do not have fun. +Tom and Lily are brother and sister. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. They also have a big bed with a blue blanket. + +One day, they decide to make a tent with the blanket. They hang the blanket over the bed and the chairs. They crawl inside the tent. They pretend they are in a forest. They see animals and flowers. They hear birds and water. + +"Look, Tom, a deer!" Lily says. She points to a picture on the wall. + +"Wow, it is so pretty!" Tom says. He smiles. "Do you think we can pet it?" + +"Maybe, if we are quiet and gentle," Lily says. She reaches out her hand. + +They have fun in their tent. They make up stories and games. They laugh and sing. They are happy. + +Soon, it is time for a nap. They lie down on the bed. They cover themselves with the blanket. They close their eyes. They have sweet dreams. + +They dream of the forest. They dream of the deer. They dream of other adventures. They are peaceful. + +When they wake up, they see their mom. She is sitting on a chair. She is reading a book. She smiles at them. + +"Did you have a good nap, my loves?" she asks. + +"Yes, mom, we did," Tom and Lily say. They hug her. + +"We made a tent with the blanket. We played in the forest. We saw a deer. It was fun," Lily says. + +"That sounds wonderful," mom says. She kisses them. "I'm glad you enjoyed yourselves. You have such good imaginations." + +Tom and Lily are grateful. They love their mom. They love their room. They love their tent. They love their dreams. They are happy. +Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and balls. One day, Tim has a new toy. It is a huge gum. It is red and shiny. Tim shows it to Sam. + +"Look at my gum! It is big and sweet. Do you want some?" Tim says. + +Sam nods. He likes gum too. He wants to try Tim's gum. Tim breaks a small piece and gives it to Sam. Sam puts it in his mouth and chews. It is yummy. + +But Tim is not happy. He wants his gum back. He thinks Sam has too much. He pulls the gum from Sam's mouth. Sam does not let go. They tug and tug. The gum stretches and snaps. It tears in half. + +"Hey! That is my gum! Give it back!" Tim shouts. + +"No! You gave it to me! It is mine!" Sam shouts back. + +They are angry. They throw the gum at each other. The gum sticks to their hair and clothes. It makes a mess. They cry and scream. + +Mom hears the noise. She comes to see what is wrong. She sees Tim and Sam with gum all over them. She is not happy. She scolds them. + +"What are you doing? Why are you fighting over gum? That is not nice. You have to share and be kind. Now go to the bathroom and clean up. And no more gum for you today!" Mom says. + +Tim and Sam are sorry. They say sorry to each other. They go to the bathroom and try to get the gum off. It is hard. They wish they did not fight over gum. They wish they played with cars and balls instead. +Sara and Ben are playing in the living room. They see a big iron on the table. The iron is shiny and has a long cord. Sara wants to touch it. + +"Look, Ben, a big iron!" Sara says. "Can we play with it?" + +Ben shakes his head. "No, Sara, we can't. Mom said the iron is hot and can hurt us. We have to stay away from it." + +Sara does not listen. She walks to the table and stares at the iron. She thinks it looks cool. She reaches out her hand to touch it. + +"Stop, Sara, stop!" Ben shouts. He runs to Sara and pulls her back. "The iron is hot, Sara, hot! You will burn your hand!" + +Sara feels scared. She looks at Ben and sees he is worried. She hugs him and says sorry. + +"Sorry, Ben, sorry. I was silly. I won't touch the iron again." + +Ben hugs her back and smiles. "It's okay, Sara, it's okay. I'm glad you are safe. Let's play with something else." + +They leave the iron alone and go to play with their toys. They are happy and forget about the iron. Mom comes in and sees them playing. She is proud of Ben for being a good brother and of Sara for saying sorry. She gives them both a kiss and a cookie. +Anna was a little girl who liked to cook. She had a big toy kitchen in her room, where she made pretend cakes and pies and soups. She also liked to watch her mom cook in the real kitchen, and sometimes helped her stir or taste. + +One day, Anna's mom told her they were going to visit a palace. Anna was very excited. She had seen pictures of palaces in her books, and they looked very pretty and shiny. She wondered if they had big kitchens too, where they cooked fancy food for the king and queen. + +When they got to the palace, Anna's mom bought tickets and they joined a group of people who were going to see the inside. Anna held her mom's hand and looked around. She saw many rooms with beautiful furniture and paintings and carpets. She also saw some people dressed in old-fashioned clothes, who were pretending to be the people who lived in the palace long ago. They talked to the visitors and showed them things. + +In one room, Anna saw a lady in a long dress and a hat, who was sitting at a table with some plates and cups. She was pretending to be the queen. Anna thought she looked very nice, and wanted to talk to her. She let go of her mom's hand and walked up to the lady. + +"Hello, queen," Anna said. "Do you like to cook?" + +The lady looked at Anna and smiled. She was confused, because Anna was not part of the group, and she did not expect her question. + +"Hello, little girl," the lady said. "Cook? Well, I don't cook myself, you know. I have servants who do that for me. They make me delicious meals every day." + +Anna was confused too. She did not understand what servants were, or why the lady did not cook. She liked to cook, and she thought everyone did. + +"But cooking is fun," Anna said. "You can make cakes and pies and soups. Don't you want to try?" + +The lady laughed. She thought Anna was very cute and funny. She decided to play along with her. + +"Maybe you are right," the lady said. "Maybe I should try to cook sometime. What do you suggest I make?" + +Anna thought for a moment. She remembered her favorite food, and what her mom taught her. + +"You can make pancakes," Anna said. "They are easy and yummy. You need eggs and milk and flour and butter and syrup. Do you have those things?" + +The lady nodded. She did have those things, but she did not know how to use them. + +"I think I do," the lady said. "But I don't know how to make pancakes. Can you show me?" + +Anna nodded. She was happy to show the lady how to make pancakes. She took her hand and led her to the door. + +"Come on, queen," Anna said. "Let's go to the kitchen and cook." + +The lady followed Anna, and they left the room. Anna's mom saw them and ran after them. She was worried that Anna had bothered the lady, and that they were going to the wrong place. + +"Anna, wait!" Anna's mom said. "That's not the kitchen, that's the library. And that's not the queen, that's an actress. Come back here!" + +But Anna and the lady did not hear her. They were too busy talking about pancakes and cooking. They were having fun, and they did not care where they were going. They were friends. +Lily likes to make gifts for her friends. She uses paper, tape, scissors and stickers to wrap things she finds in her room. She wraps a book for Ben, a doll for Mia and a car for Sam. She is very happy with her gifts. + +But she has one more friend to give a gift to. His name is Max and he likes to draw. Lily looks for something to wrap for Max, but she cannot find anything. She has no more paper, no more tape, no more scissors and no more stickers. She is very sad. + +Then she has an idea. She takes a big sheet of paper from her mom's desk and a crayon from her box. She draws a picture of Max and herself playing in the park. She draws a sun, a tree, a swing and a slide. She draws a big heart around them and writes "To Max, from Lily". She is very proud of her picture. + +She folds the paper and makes a wrap for her picture. She does not need tape or scissors or stickers. She uses her crayon to draw more hearts and stars on the wrap. She finishes her gift for Max and smiles. She thinks it is the best gift of all. + +She puts all her gifts in a bag and goes to the door. She is ready to go to the party. She hopes her friends will like her gifts. She thinks they are very normal gifts, but very special too. She loves her friends very much. +Lily wanted to play with her new toy chicken. She liked how it made funny noises and moved its wings. She took it to the garden and showed it to her big brother Ben. + +"Look, Ben, look! It's a chicken!" Lily said, holding the toy close to her face. + +Ben was busy reading a book. He did not look at Lily or her toy. He said, "That's not a real chicken, Lily. It's just a toy. A real chicken is an animal that lives on a farm and lays eggs." + +Lily did not understand. She asked, "What is a farm? What are eggs?" + +Ben sighed. He was frustrated. He did not want to explain things to Lily. He wanted to read his book. He said, "A farm is a big place with many animals and plants. Eggs are round things that come out of chickens. You can eat them or make them into cakes." + +Lily still did not understand. She asked, "How do eggs come out of chickens? How do you make them into cakes?" + +Ben rolled his eyes. He was very frustrated. He did not want to explain more things to Lily. He wanted to read his book. He said, "I don't know, Lily. I don't know how chickens make eggs or how eggs make cakes. Go ask Mom or Dad. They can explain better than me." + +Lily felt sad. She wanted to play with Ben and her toy chicken. She did not want to ask Mom or Dad. She said, "But I want to play with you, Ben. I want to show you my chicken. It's fun and cute. Please play with me, Ben." + +Ben looked at Lily. He saw her big eyes and her pouty lips. He felt sorry for her. He put down his book. He said, "Okay, Lily. Okay. I'll play with you and your chicken. But first, let me explain something to you. A toy chicken is not the same as a real chicken. A toy chicken is a thing that you can play with and make noises with. A real chicken is a living thing that you can't play with or make noises with. Do you understand, Lily?" + +Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, Ben. I understand. A toy chicken is a toy. A real chicken is an animal. Thank you for explaining, Ben. You are a good brother." + +Ben smiled. He said, "You're welcome, Lily. You are a good sister. Now, let's play with your chicken. What noises does it make?" + +Lily giggled. She pressed a button on the toy chicken. It made a loud cluck. She said, "It makes a cluck, Ben. A cluck, cluck, cluck!" + +Ben laughed. He said, "That's right, Lily. It makes a cluck. A cluck, cluck, cluck!" He picked up his book and pretended it was a chicken too. He said, "And this is my chicken. It makes a book, book, book!" + +Lily and Ben played with their chickens. They made noises and moved their wings. They had fun and forgot their frustration. They were happy. +Squirrel and Mouse were friends who lived in the big forest. They liked to play and explore together, but they also had to prepare for the cold winter. Squirrel was good at finding acorns and hiding them in his nest. Mouse was good at making soft beds with leaves and grass. + +One day, Squirrel found a very big and shiny acorn. He was very happy and proud. He wanted to show it to Mouse and share it with him. He ran to Mouse's hole and knocked on the door. + +"Mouse, Mouse, come out and see what I found!" he said. + +Mouse came out and saw the acorn. He was amazed and happy too. + +"Wow, Squirrel, that is a very big and shiny acorn! Where did you find it?" he asked. + +"I found it near the big oak tree. It was the last one. I was very lucky!" Squirrel said. + +"Can I have a bite?" Mouse asked. + +"Of course, Mouse. You are my friend. We can share it. But we have to be patient. We have to wait until winter. Then we can eat it together and stay warm and cozy," Squirrel said. + +Mouse nodded. He understood. He knew that acorns were very good food for winter. He thanked Squirrel and hugged him. + +They put the acorn in Squirrel's nest and covered it with leaves. They agreed to meet again when the snow came. + +But the next day, Squirrel had a bad dream. He dreamed that Mouse stole his acorn and ate it all by himself. He woke up feeling angry and scared. He ran to his nest and checked the acorn. It was still there, but he did not feel happy. He felt greedy and selfish. He thought that Mouse might change his mind and take his acorn. He decided to hide it somewhere else, where Mouse could not find it. + +He took the acorn and ran to the other side of the forest. He dug a hole under a big rock and put the acorn inside. He covered it with dirt and leaves. He felt safe and satisfied. He thought that he was smart and clever. + +He did not tell Mouse what he did. He did not see Mouse for a long time. He did not play or explore with him. He stayed near his new hiding place and watched the acorn. + +But winter came sooner than he expected. The snow fell and the wind blew. The forest became cold and white. Squirrel felt hungry and lonely. He wanted to eat his acorn and see his friend. He ran to his hiding place and dug up the acorn. But he was shocked and sad. The acorn was gone! Someone had found it and eaten it. He did not know who. He felt sorry and foolish. He wished he had shared it with Mouse. + +He ran to Mouse's hole and knocked on the door. He hoped that Mouse was still his friend. He wanted to say sorry and ask for forgiveness. + +"Mouse, Mouse, are you there?" he said. + +Mouse came out and saw Squirrel. He was surprised and happy. He had missed Squirrel. He wondered where he had been. + +"Squirrel, Squirrel, where have you been? I have not seen you for a long time. Are you okay?" he asked. + +Squirrel looked at Mouse and felt ashamed. He told Mouse what he had done. He told him about the big and shiny acorn, the bad dream, the new hiding place, and the missing acorn. He said sorry and asked for forgiveness. + +Mouse listened and felt sorry for Squirrel. He knew that Squirrel had made a mistake. He knew that Squirrel was hungry and lonely. He forgave Squirrel and hugged him. + +"Squirrel, Squirrel, it is okay. I am not angry with you. I am still your friend. We all make mistakes. But we can learn from them. Next time, we can share and be patient. We can trust and be loyal. We can be happy and grateful. Come, I have something for you," he said. + +He took Squirrel to his hole and showed him a small pile of nuts and seeds. He had collected them during the fall. He had enough for both of them. + +"Look, Squirrel, I have some food for us. We can eat and stay warm and cozy. We can be friends and enjoy the winter," he said. + +Squirrel smiled and thanked Mouse. He felt happy and grateful. He learned a lesson. He learned that sharing and being patient is better than hiding and being greedy. He learned that trusting and being loyal is better than doubting and being selfish. He learned that being happy and grateful is better than being angry and scared. + +He ate and stayed warm and cozy with Mouse. He was friends and enjoyed the winter with Mouse. He was a better Squirrel because of Mouse +Sam and Mia were twins who liked to look at the sky. They saw many things in the sky, like birds, clouds and stars. But their favourite thing to see was an aeroplane. They liked to hear the loud noise it made and to imagine where it was going. + +One day, they went to the park with their mum and dad. They brought a ball, a kite and a picnic. They had a lot of fun playing and eating. Then they heard a very loud noise in the sky. They looked up and saw a big aeroplane. It was white and blue and had a long tail. + +"Wow, look at that aeroplane!" Sam said. "It's so big and fast!" + +"Maybe it's going to a faraway place, like the jungle or the snow," Mia said. "I wish we could go on an aeroplane someday." + +They watched the aeroplane fly across the sky. It looked calm and smooth. But then something bad happened. The aeroplane started to smoke and shake. It made a scary sound and went down very fast. It crashed into the ground and made a huge fire. + +Sam and Mia were very scared. They screamed and cried. Their mum and dad hugged them and tried to calm them down. They ran away from the park with many other people. They heard sirens and saw smoke and flames. + +The aeroplane was broken and everyone on it was gone. Sam and Mia felt very sad and sorry. They never wanted to see an aeroplane again. +Tim and Jen liked to play near the old factory. It was big and gray and had many windows. Sometimes they saw smoke and noise from inside. They wondered what was in there. + +One day, they found a hole in the fence. They looked at each other and smiled. They wanted to see the factory. They crawled through the hole and ran to the big door. It was open a little bit. They pushed it and went inside. + +The factory was dark and dusty. They saw many machines and pipes and wires. They heard a loud bang and a hiss. They got scared and ran away. But they did not see the same door. They saw two doors. They did not know which one was the right one. + +They split up. Tim went to the left door and Jen went to the right door. They hoped to find the way out. But they did not. They found more machines and pipes and wires. They got more scared and cried. + +They wished they had not gone to the factory. They wished they had stayed outside. They wished they could find each other. They wished they could go home. +Anna and Ben were twins, but they were very different. Anna liked to play with dolls and draw pictures. Ben liked to run and climb and make noise. One day, they went to the park with their mom. Anna saw a big tree with pink flowers and wanted to sit under it. Ben saw a big tree with green leaves and wanted to climb it. + +"Come with me, Ben!" Anna said. "This tree is so pretty!" + +"No, come with me, Anna!" Ben said. "This tree is so fun!" + +They both pulled on their mom's hand, but she said they could play on different trees if they wanted. Anna ran to the pink tree and Ben ran to the green tree. They played by themselves for a while, but soon they felt lonely. + +"Anna, where are you?" Ben called. + +"Ben, where are you?" Anna called. + +They looked around and saw each other on different trees. They waved and smiled, but they could not hear each other. They wanted to play together, but they did not want to leave their trees. They did not know what to do. They started to weep. + +Their mom heard them and came to them. She hugged them and wiped their tears. + +"Why are you weeping, my loves?" she asked. + +"We want to play together, but we like different trees," Anna said. + +"We don't want to leave our trees, but we miss each other," Ben said. + +Their mom smiled and said, "You don't have to choose, my loves. You can play on both trees. You can take turns and share. You can enjoy the pink flowers and the green leaves. You can be different and be together." + +Anna and Ben liked that idea. They hugged their mom and thanked her. Then they ran to each other and hugged. They decided to play on the pink tree first, then on the green tree. They had fun and laughed and talked. They were happy. They were different and they were together. +Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they saw a big wrap under the tree. It was red and shiny and had a bow on top. They wondered what was inside. + +"Can we open it?" Anna asked their mom. + +"No, you have to wait until tomorrow. It is a surprise for you," mom said. + +"But we want to know now!" Ben said. + +"Sorry, you have to be patient. It is a wise thing to do," mom said. + +Anna and Ben were not happy. They wanted to see the surprise. They waited until mom went to the kitchen. Then they tiptoed to the tree. They looked at the wrap. They touched it. They shook it. They heard a jingle. + +"What do you think it is?" Anna whispered. + +"Maybe it is a bell. Or a toy car. Or a candy cane," Ben whispered. + +They decided to peek inside. They pulled the bow. They tore the wrap. They opened the box. They gasped. + +Inside the box was a big, fluffy, white cat. It had blue eyes and a pink nose. It looked at them and meowed. + +"Wow, a cat!" Anna said. + +"How cute!" Ben said. + +They reached out to pet the cat. But the cat did not like that. It hissed and scratched them. It jumped out of the box and ran away. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Anna and Ben cried. + +Mom heard the noise and came back. She saw the wrap on the floor, the box empty, and the twins with red marks on their hands. + +"What happened here?" mom asked. + +Anna and Ben looked at each other. They knew they had done a bad thing. They felt sorry and ashamed. + +"We opened the wrap. We wanted to see the surprise. But it was a cat. And it hurt us. And it ran away. We are sorry, mom," they said. + +Mom sighed. She hugged them and kissed their wounds. She was not angry, but she was sad. + +"I know you were curious, but you should have listened to me. It was not a wise thing to do. The cat was a gift from your grandma. She wanted you to have a friend. But now the cat is scared and lost. We have to find it and make it feel safe. Maybe then it will like you," she said. + +Anna and Ben nodded. They learned their lesson. They helped mom look for the cat. They hoped they could make it happy. They promised to never open a wrap without asking again. +Tom and Mia were playing with a big box. They wanted to make a house out of it. Tom had a pair of scissors and Mia had some crayons. + +"Let me cut the door, Tom," Mia said. She was impatient. She wanted to draw on the box. + +"No, I want to cut the door," Tom said. He was impatient too. He wanted to make the house his way. + +They both pulled on the box and the scissors. The box ripped and the scissors fell on the floor. + +"Look what you did!" Tom cried. He was angry and sad. + +"Look what you did!" Mia cried. She was angry and sad too. + +They both sat on the floor and looked at the broken box. They felt sorry for the box and for each other. + +"I'm sorry, Tom," Mia said. She hugged him. + +"I'm sorry, Mia," Tom said. He hugged her back. + +They picked up the scissors and the crayons. They decided to work together and fix the box. They cut a new door and some windows. They drew flowers and stars on the box. They made the house beautiful and cozy. + +They smiled and went inside the box. They played and had fun. They were happy and proud. They learned to share and cooperate. They were good friends. +Tim and Mia are friends. They like to play together. One day, they decide to perform a show for their parents. They dress up in funny clothes and make up songs and jokes. + +They go to the living room and say, "Hello, we are Tim and Mia. We are going to perform for you. Please clap and laugh." Their parents sit on the couch and smile. + +Tim and Mia sing and dance and tell stories. They make funny faces and noises. Their parents clap and laugh. They are very proud of Tim and Mia. They say, "You are brilliant! You are very good at performing. We love your show." + +Tim and Mia bow and say, "Thank you, thank you. We are happy you like our show." They hug their parents and say, "We love you too." + +Their parents say, "You are very sweet. Now, let's have a meal together. We have pizza and salad and ice cream. Do you like that?" Tim and Mia say, "Yes, yes, we love that. Pizza and ice cream are our favorite." + +They go to the kitchen and eat their meal. They talk and laugh and share their food. They are very full and happy. They say, "This is the best day ever. We have fun and we have food and we have love." +Tim and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. But then their mom came in with some news. + +"Kids, I have to tell you something. We have to go to the dentist today. It's time for your check-up." + +Tim and Lily did not like the news. They did not like the dentist. He made their teeth hurt and gave them weird tastes. They wanted to keep playing. + +"No, mom, no!" Tim shouted. "We don't want to go!" + +"Me neither!" Lily agreed. "The dentist is scary!" + +"I know, sweeties, but you have to go. It's good for your teeth. And I promise it won't be too bad. The dentist is very nice and gentle. He will give you a sticker and a toy when you're done." + +Tim and Lily still did not want to go. They tried to resist. They hid under the table and held their toys. They said they were sick and tired. They cried and whined. + +But mom did not give up. She coaxed them out of the table and hugged them. She told them she loved them and she would be with them the whole time. She said they were brave and strong. She said they could play more when they came back. + +Tim and Lily were upset, but they listened to mom. They put on their coats and shoes and followed her to the car. They hoped the dentist would be quick and nice. They hoped they could get back to their toys soon. +Tom and Lily liked to play in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. One day, they found a big, fat worm. Lily wanted to keep it as a pet, but Tom said no. He said worms are not pets, they are food for birds. + +Lily did not listen to Tom. She insisted that the worm was her friend. She put it in a jar and gave it some leaves. She named it Wiggly. She took it everywhere with her. She showed it to her mom and dad, her doll and her teddy bear. She said Wiggly was happy with her. + +Tom was not happy with Lily. He said she was silly and mean. He said Wiggly was not happy, he was scared and sad. He said Lily should let Wiggly go back to the dirt, where he belonged. He said if she did not, something bad would happen. + +Lily did not listen to Tom. She said Wiggly was fine, he was not scared or sad. She said Tom was jealous and rude. She said Wiggly was her best friend, and she would never let him go. + +The next day, Lily took Wiggly to the park. She wanted to show him to her friends. She put the jar on a bench and went to play on the swings. She did not see the big, black bird that flew down from the tree. The bird saw the jar and the worm. The bird was hungry and fierce. It pecked at the jar and broke it. It grabbed Wiggly and flew away. + +Lily heard the noise and ran back to the bench. She saw the broken jar and the empty lid. She saw the bird and the worm in its beak. She cried and cried. She wished she had listened to Tom. She wished she had let Wiggly go. She learned that worms are not pets, they are food for birds. She learned that sometimes, it is better to let go than to insist. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a chubby cat. The cat is black and white. It has a red collar. + +"Look, a cat!" Anna says. "Let's talk to it." + +"OK," Ben says. They walk to the cat. The cat is sitting on a bench. It is licking its paw. + +"Hello, cat," Anna says. "What is your name?" + +The cat looks at Anna. It meows. + +"Meow," Ben says. "Do you speak cat?" + +The cat nods. It meows again. + +"Maybe it is hungry," Anna says. "Do you have any food, Ben?" + +Ben shakes his head. He has no food. + +"Wait, I have an idea," Anna says. She runs to the trash can. She finds a can of tuna. She opens it. She brings it to the cat. + +"Here, cat," Anna says. "Do you like tuna?" + +The cat smells the tuna. It purrs. It jumps off the bench. It eats the tuna. + +"Wow, the cat likes tuna," Ben says. "You are smart, Anna." + +"Thank you, Ben," Anna says. "You are nice." + +The cat finishes the tuna. It rubs its head against Anna and Ben. It meows. + +"I think the cat likes us, too," Anna says. + +"Me too," Ben says. "Can we be friends, cat?" + +The cat nods. It meows. + +"Yay, we have a new friend," Anna says. + +They hug the cat. The cat hugs them back. They are happy. +Tim and Sam like to watch team games on TV. They cheer for their favorite team, the red team. They wear red shirts and hats to show their love. + +One day, they watch a game with their dad. The red team is playing against the blue team. The blue team is very rough. They push and kick the red team players. They make them fall and cry. + +Tim and Sam are angry and sad. They shout at the TV. "Stop! Stop! That is not fair! That is not nice!" + +Their dad hugs them and says, "I know, boys. The blue team is not playing well. They are breaking the rules. But the red team is strong and brave. They do not give up. They try their best. They play with skill and heart." + +Tim and Sam nod and smile. They hope the red team will win. They clap and cheer louder. They believe in their team. They are proud of them. +Tom and Sam like to play by the pond. They see many fish in the water. Some fish are big and some fish are small. Some fish are red and some fish are blue. Tom and Sam want to catch some fish. + +They find a sack in the grass. They think it is a good thing to catch fish with. They take the sack to the pond. They put the sack in the water and wait. They hope some fish will swim into the sack. + +Soon, they feel something move in the sack. They pull the sack out of the water. They see a big fish in the sack. The fish is wild. It jumps and flips in the sack. It tries to get out. Tom and Sam are scared. They drop the sack and run away. + +The fish gets out of the sack. It swims back to the pond. It is happy to be free. Tom and Sam learn a lesson. They decide not to catch fish with a sack again. They say sorry to the fish and go home. +Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big bird with a long neck and white feathers. It is a swan. + +"Wow, look at that bird!" Sara says. "It has a big wing. Can it fly?" + +"I don't know," Ben says. "Let's go and talk to it. Maybe it can tell us." + +They run to the pond where the swan is swimming. They get close to the edge and wave at the swan. + +"Hello, bird!" Sara says. "What is your name? Do you like the water?" + +The swan does not answer. It looks at them with its black eyes. It does not like them. It thinks they are noisy and rude. + +"Go away, kids!" the swan says. "This is my pond. You are bothering me. Leave me alone!" + +The swan opens its big wing and flaps it at them. It makes a loud hiss. Sara and Ben are scared. They think the swan is terrible. + +"Sorry, bird!" Ben says. "We didn't mean to make you angry. We just wanted to be friends." + +They run away from the pond. They find a bench and sit down. They are sad and hurt. + +"Why was the bird so mean?" Sara asks. "We were nice to it. We just wanted to talk." + +"I don't know," Ben says. "Maybe it had a bad day. Maybe it was lonely. Maybe it was afraid of us." + +They look at the pond. The swan is still swimming. It looks calm and proud. + +"Maybe we should try again another day," Sara says. "Maybe it will be nicer then." + +"Maybe," Ben says. "But we have to be careful. It has a big wing. And it can hiss." + +They hug each other and smile. They are still friends. They like to play in the park. +Sam and Mia liked to play on the sand. They made castles and bridges and tunnels. They also liked to look for shells and stones. Sometimes they found shiny or colorful ones. + +One day, they saw a big wave coming from the sea. It was very loud and fast. Sam and Mia ran away from the water. They did not want to get wet. But when they looked back, they saw that their sand castles and bridges and tunnels were gone. The wave had washed them away. + +"Oh no!" Sam said. "Our sand things are gone. They vanished!" + +Mia was sad. She had worked hard on her sand things. She had also found a pretty shell that fit in her hand. She wanted to keep it. But she could not see it anymore. + +"Maybe we can find it again," Sam said. He tried to cheer up his sister. "Let's look for it. Maybe it is still on the sand." + +Sam and Mia looked for the shell. They searched near the water and far from the water. They searched under the sand and on top of the sand. But they could not find the shell. It had vanished too. + +Mia started to cry. She missed her shell. She wished she had put it in her pocket. + +Sam hugged his sister. He felt sorry for her. He wanted to make her happy. He had an idea. + +"Look, Mia," he said. He pointed to the sky. "There is a big cloud. It looks like a shell. Maybe it is your shell. Maybe it flew away to the sky." + +Mia looked up. She saw the cloud. It did look like a shell. It was white and round and shiny. She smiled. + +"Maybe you are right, Sam," she said. She wiped her tears. "Maybe it is my shell. Maybe it will come back to me someday." + +Sam and Mia felt better. They decided to make new sand things. They also decided to look for new shells and stones. They hoped they would not vanish again. They had fun on the sand. They forgot about the wave and the sea. +Lily was a big girl who liked to tie her shoes by herself. She learned how to make a loop, a cross and a pull from her mom. Every morning, she would wake up when her alarm made a loud noise. She would jump out of bed, brush her teeth and tie her shoes. + +One day, she wanted to surprise her mom by making her breakfast. She went to the kitchen and looked for some eggs, bread and jam. She tried to crack an egg on a bowl, but it slipped from her hand and splashed on the floor. She tried to spread some jam on a slice of bread, but it was too sticky and got on her fingers. She tried to put the bread in the toaster, but it was too big and got stuck. + +She heard her mom coming down the stairs and panicked. She quickly grabbed a napkin and tried to clean the mess. But the napkin was too small and got wet and torn. She looked around and saw a big pile of egg, jam and bread on the floor, on the counter and on the toaster. + +She started to cry and said, "Mom, I'm sorry, I wanted to make you breakfast, but I made a big mess. I don't know how to cook. I only know how to tie my shoes." + +Her mom came into the kitchen and saw the disaster. She smiled and hugged Lily. She said, "It's okay, sweetie, I appreciate your effort. You are very kind and thoughtful. You don't have to cook for me. You can help me in other ways, like setting the table or washing the dishes. And you should be proud of yourself for knowing how to tie your shoes. That's a very important skill. Come on, let's clean this up together and then we can have some cereal and milk." + +Lily nodded and wiped her tears. She said, "Thank you, mom, I love you. Can you teach me how to cook someday?" + +Her mom said, "Of course, I love you too. And yes, I can teach you how to cook someday, when you are a little older and more careful. But for now, let's enjoy our breakfast and have a good day." +One day, Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. They found a big worm and a shiny beetle. They put them in a jar and showed them to their mom. + +"Look, mom, we found some friends!" Ben said. + +"Wow, they are very interesting," mom said. "But you are very dirty. You need to wash your hands before lunch." + +Mom took them to the bathroom and turned on the faucet. She gave them some soap to rub on their hands. The soap was white and smelled nice. + +But when Ben and Lily rubbed the soap, something strange happened. The soap turned black and bubbled on their hands. It looked like ink. Ben and Lily were scared. + +"Mom, what is this?" Lily cried. + +Mom laughed. She had a big smile on her face. She took the soap from their hands and showed them a label. It said: "Trick soap. Turns black when wet. Fun for pranks." + +"April fools!" mom said. "I got you with this silly soap. It's not real ink. It will wash off with water. Don't worry." + +Ben and Lily looked at each other. They were not happy. They did not like mom's joke. They thought it was mean. + +"Mom, that's not funny!" Ben said. "That's mean!" + +"Yeah, mom, that's mean!" Lily said. "We don't like this soap!" + +Mom felt sorry. She hugged them and said she was sorry. She said she wanted to make them laugh, not cry. She said she loved them very much. + +She gave them some normal soap and helped them wash their hands. The black soap came off easily. Their hands were clean and white again. + +Mom said she would not use the trick soap again. She said she would give it to dad and see if he would fall for it. Ben and Lily smiled. They thought that would be funny. + +They forgave mom and hugged her back. They said they loved her too. They went to have lunch with their mom and dad. They ate sandwiches and fruit. They told dad about their bug friends and their black soap. Dad laughed and said he was proud of them. He said he would be careful with the soap. He winked at mom. Mom winked back. Ben and Lily giggled. They were happy. +Lila and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a lot of fun. They run, jump, slide and swing. + +One day, they find a big pile of twigs. They have an idea. They want to make a house with the twigs. They start to pick up the twigs and put them together. + +"Look, Lila, I have a long twig. It can be the roof," Tom says. + +"Good, Tom. I have a short twig. It can be the door," Lila says. + +They work hard and make a house with the twigs. They are very proud. They go inside the house and pretend to live there. They have a lively game. They laugh and talk. + +"Hello, Tom. Welcome to our house. Do you want some tea?" Lila asks. + +"Yes, please, Lila. Thank you for inviting me. Your house is very nice," Tom answers. + +They have a tea party with their cups and spoons. They enjoy their house and their game. They are happy. +Tim and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. But sometimes they fight over the same toy. They want to have it all for themselves. + +One day, they find a big ball in the closet. It is shiny and bouncy. They both want to play with it. They grab it from each other and pull hard. They do not share. + +"Give me the ball!" Tim says. + +"No, it is mine!" Lily says. + +They pull and pull. The ball stretches and stretches. It makes a loud noise. Pop! The ball breaks. Air comes out. The ball is flat and sad. + +Tim and Lily are shocked. They let go of the ball. They look at each other. They feel pain in their hands. They have red marks from pulling. They start to cry. + +They hear their mom coming. She sees the broken ball and the crying twins. She is angry. She scolds them for being selfish and jealous. She takes away their toys. She tells them to go to bed early. They have no fun. + +Tim and Lily are sorry. They wish they had shared the ball. They hug each other and say sorry. But it is too late. The ball is gone. Their mom is mad. They have a bad day. +Mia was sad. She had a bad dream. She saw a big monster with sharp teeth and red eyes. The monster chased her and wanted to eat her. She woke up and cried. + +"Mama, mama, help me!" she shouted. + +Mama came to her room. She turned on the light with the switch. She saw Mia crying on her bed. + +"What's wrong, my sweetie?" she asked. + +"I had a bad dream, mama. There was a monster. It was scary!" Mia said. + +Mama hugged Mia and kissed her. She comforted her and said, "It's okay, my sweetie. It was just a dream. There is no monster. You are safe with me. I love you." + +Mia felt better. She smiled and said, "I love you too, mama. Thank you for comforting me." + +Mama smiled and said, "You're welcome, my sweetie. Do you want to sleep with me tonight?" + +Mia nodded and said, "Yes, please, mama." + +Mama picked up Mia and carried her to her room. She tucked her in and said, "Good night, my sweetie. Have sweet dreams." + +Mia closed her eyes and said, "Good night, mama. No more monsters." + +Mama turned off the light with the switch. She cuddled with Mia and said, "No more monsters, my sweetie. Only love." + +They both fell asleep and had sweet dreams. + +The end. +Lily and Mia were playing with their dolls in the garden. They had a tea party and a fashion show. They were having fun. + +But then, a huge dog came into the garden. It was black and furry and had big teeth. It saw the dolls and wanted to play with them too. It ran towards Lily and Mia and barked loudly. + +Lily and Mia were scared. They hugged their dolls and ran away. But the dog was faster. It caught up with them and grabbed Mia's doll with its mouth. It shook the doll and made it dirty. + +"Give it back! Give it back!" Mia cried. She tried to pull the doll from the dog, but the dog was stronger. It growled and pulled harder. + +Lily had an idea. She saw a ball on the grass. She picked it up and threw it far away. She shouted, "Look, doggy, a ball! Go get it!" + +The dog heard Lily and saw the ball. It liked balls more than dolls. It dropped Mia's doll and chased the ball. It ran out of the garden. + +Lily and Mia were happy. They got their dolls back. They hugged each other and said, "We are brave. We did not surrender to the dog." They cleaned their dolls and continued their play. They hoped the dog would not come back. +Tom liked to play with his ball in the park. He would kick it hard and run after it. He liked to see how far it would go. Sometimes he would kick it too hard and it would go over the fence. Then he would have to ask someone to get it for him. + +One day, he saw a brown dove on the fence. It was pretty and had shiny eyes. Tom wanted to see it closer. He kicked his ball at the fence, hoping it would make the dove fly to him. But he kicked it too hard and it hit the dove. The dove fell to the ground and did not move. + +Tom felt bad. He ran to the dove and picked it up. It was soft and warm, but it did not breathe. He tried to make it wake up, but it did not. He started to cry. He wished he had not kicked his ball so hard. He wished he had not hurt the dove. + +A lady saw him and came to him. She saw the dove and the ball. She knew what had happened. She felt sorry for Tom and the dove. She hugged him and said, "It's okay, Tom. It was an accident. You did not mean to hurt the dove. But you have to be careful with your ball. You have to watch where you kick it. You don't want to hurt anyone or anything else, do you?" + +Tom shook his head. He said, "No, I don't. I'm sorry, lady. I'm sorry, dove." He gave the dove to the lady. She said she would bury it in the park. She gave him his ball back. She told him to play gently and have fun. Tom nodded. He thanked her and went back to his ball. He kicked it softly and ran after it. He did not kick it too hard again. He did not want to hurt anyone or anything else again. He learned his lesson. +Lila was restless. She did not want to sleep in her bed. She wanted to see the stars and the moon. She got out of her bed and put on her coat and shoes. She opened the door and went outside. + +She wandered in the dark. She saw many lights in the sky. She wondered what they were. She saw one light that was bigger and brighter than the others. She thought it was a planet. She wanted to go there and see what it was like. + +She saw a big rock near the fence. She climbed on it and reached out her hand. She tried to touch the planet, but it was too far away. She felt sad and lonely. + +"Where are you, Lila?" She heard a voice behind her. It was her mom. She came to look for her. She saw her on the rock, trying to touch the sky. + +"Lila, what are you doing?" Her mom asked. She sounded worried and angry. + +"I want to go to the planet, mom. It looks so pretty and shiny. I want to see what it is like there." Lila said. + +"Lila, you can't go to the planet. It is very far away. And it is not safe to wander in the dark. You could get lost or hurt. You need to come back to the house and sleep in your bed. The planet will still be there tomorrow. And maybe we can read a book about it and learn more about it." Her mom said. + +She took Lila's hand and helped her down from the rock. She hugged her and kissed her. She took her back to the house and tucked her in her bed. She gave her a stuffed animal and a night light. + +"Good night, Lila. I love you. Don't be restless. Dream of the planet and the stars. And tomorrow we can talk more about them." Her mom said. + +"Good night, mom. I love you too. Thank you for the animal and the light. I will dream of the planet and the stars. And tomorrow we can read a book about them." Lila said. + +She closed her eyes and fell asleep. She smiled in her sleep. She was not restless anymore. She was happy. +Lily liked to study the flowers in the garden. She learned their names and colors and smells. She wanted to be a flower lady when she grew up. She had a book with pictures of flowers that she looked at every day. + +One day, she saw a new flower in the garden. It was yellow and spiky and had a big red spot in the middle. It looked like a sun with a fire. Lily was curious and wanted to study it. She ran to the flower and touched it with her finger. + +But the flower was not nice. It was bitter and prickly and hurt Lily's finger. It made her cry and bleed. Lily ran back to her mom and showed her the wound. Her mom hugged her and said, "That's a cactus, Lily. It's not a flower. It's a plant that lives in the desert and has needles to protect itself. You should never touch a cactus. It can hurt you very much." + +Lily felt sad and sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I didn't know. I just wanted to study the flower. I love flowers." + +Her mom smiled and said, "I know, Lily. I love flowers too. And I love you. But you have to be careful and ask me before you study something new. Some things are not what they seem. Some things are bitter and dangerous. But some things are sweet and beautiful. Like you." She kissed Lily's finger and gave her a band-aid. + +Lily nodded and said, "Thank you, mom. I will be careful next time. Can we study the roses? They are sweet and beautiful. Like you." + +Her mom said, "Yes, we can. Let's go to the garden and study the roses. They are my favorite flowers. And you are my favorite girl." They walked to the garden and studied the roses. They smelled them and admired them and talked about them. They were happy and forgot about the cactus. +Ben and Sam were brothers who liked to play near the old mill. The mill was big and black and made a lot of noise. Sometimes they saw the miller come out with sacks of flour. They wondered what was inside the mill. + +One day, they decided to sneak into the mill when the miller was away. They climbed over the fence and ran to the door. They pushed it open and saw a lot of machines and wheels and belts. They were curious and wanted to touch everything. + +But they did not see the sign that said "Danger! Keep out!" They did not hear the miller coming back. They did not notice the belt that was moving fast and caught Sam's shirt. Sam screamed and Ben stared in fear. The belt pulled Sam towards the big wheel that was spinning and grinding. + +The miller heard the scream and ran to the mill. He saw Ben and Sam and quickly turned off the machines. He freed Sam from the belt and checked if he was hurt. Sam was scared and crying, but he only had some scratches and bruises. The miller was angry and shouted at them. He told them to never come back to the mill and to stay away from danger. + +Ben and Sam learned a lesson that day. They said sorry to the miller and ran back to their home. They told their mom what happened and she hugged them and scolded them. She told them to always obey the signs and to be careful and smart. They promised to never go to the mill again and to play in safer places. They were glad that they were not badly hurt and that the miller was kind. They understood that the mill was not a place for fun, but for work. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the garden. They see a big green squash. They want to pick it. + +"Look, Ben, a squash!" Lily says. "Can we take it?" + +"I don't know, Lily. It is very big. Maybe it is not ready," Ben says. + +They go closer to the squash. They touch it. It is hard and smooth. They try to lift it. It is heavy. + +"Help me, Lily. It is too heavy for me," Ben says. + +Lily helps Ben. They pull and pull. The squash comes off the vine. They are happy. + +"Yay, we did it!" Lily says. "We picked a squash!" + +They hug the squash. They are proud. They see Mom and Dad. They run to them with the squash. + +"Mom, Dad, look what we found!" Ben says. + +"Wow, what a big squash!" Mom says. "You two did a great job!" + +"Can we eat it?" Lily asks. + +"Sure, we can. We can make soup or pie or mash," Dad says. + +Mom and Dad smile. They applaud Lily and Ben. They clap their hands. + +"Good job, Lily and Ben!" they say. + +Lily and Ben are happy. They like squash. They like Mom and Dad. They like to play in the garden. +Lily and Sam love to go to the library with Mom. The library has many books with pictures and stories. Lily likes books about animals. Sam likes books about cars and trucks. + +One day, they find an enormous book on a shelf. It is bigger than Lily and Sam. It has a picture of a dragon on the cover. Lily and Sam are curious. They ask Mom if they can look at the book. + +Mom says, "Sure, but be careful. It is a very old and heavy book. Let me help you carry it to a table." + +Mom, Lily and Sam take the book to a table. They open it and see many colorful pages. The book tells stories about dragons and knights and princesses. Lily and Sam listen as Mom reads the stories. They see the dragons breathe fire and fly in the sky. They see the knights fight with swords and shields. They see the princesses wear beautiful dresses and crowns. + +Lily and Sam are amazed. They ask Mom many questions about the book. Mom tells them that the book is very special. It is a fairy tale book. It has stories that are not real, but are fun to imagine. + +Lily and Sam like the fairy tale book. They say, "Thank you, Mom, for reading the book to us. Can we come back to the library and see it again?" + +Mom smiles and says, "Of course, my loves. The library is a wonderful place to find books and stories. Maybe next time we can find another enormous book to read." +Sam and Lily were twins who liked to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big box of blocks. They could build anything they wanted with the blocks: houses, cars, castles, and more. + +One day, they decided to build a big tower with all the blocks. They worked hard and had fun, stacking the blocks higher and higher. They wanted to make the tallest tower ever. + +"Look, Lily, our tower is almost as tall as me!" Sam said, standing next to the tower. + +"Wow, Sam, you're right! Let's add one more block on top!" Lily said, holding a blue block. + +She climbed on a chair and reached for the top of the tower. But as she did, she slipped and fell. The chair tipped over and the tower crashed down. The blocks flew everywhere, making a loud noise. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Lily cried, holding her mouth. She felt something hard and sharp in her tongue. She spat it out and saw it was a white tooth. Her tooth had come out when she fell. + +"Are you okay, Lily?" Sam asked, running to her. He saw the tooth and gasped. "Lily, you lost a tooth!" + +Lily nodded, still crying. She felt a gap in her teeth and it hurt. She was scared and sad. + +"Don't cry, Lily, it's okay. It's normal to lose a tooth. Mommy and Daddy told us that when we lose a tooth, we can put it under our pillow and the tooth fairy will come and give us a coin." Sam said, trying to cheer her up. + +"Really?" Lily asked, wiping her tears. + +"Really. Come on, let's go to our room and order the tooth fairy to come tonight." Sam said, picking up the tooth and holding Lily's hand. + +They went to their room and put the tooth under Lily's pillow. They hoped the tooth fairy would come and make Lily happy. They hugged each other and said good night. + +Outside, the sky was gloomy and dark. It looked like it was going to rain. But inside, Sam and Lily felt warm and cozy. They smiled and closed their eyes, dreaming of the tooth fairy. +Tom and Sam were brothers. They liked to go to the mall with Mom. The mall had many shops and toys and food. Tom and Sam wanted to buy everything they saw. But Mom said they had to save money and be happy with what they had. + +One day, they saw a big sack near a shop. The sack was full of shiny things. Tom and Sam were curious. They looked inside the sack. They saw rings and necklaces and bracelets. They were very pretty. Tom and Sam wanted to have them. + +"Let's take some of these," Tom whispered to Sam. "No one will know. Mom won't see them." + +Sam was scared. He knew it was wrong to take things that were not theirs. He said to Tom, "No, we can't do that. That is stealing. Stealing is bad. We will get in trouble." + +But Tom did not listen. He grabbed a handful of shiny things and put them in his pocket. He said to Sam, "Don't be a baby. Come on, let's go." + +They ran away from the sack. But they did not see a tall man who was watching them. The tall man was a security guard. He worked at the mall. He saw Tom and Sam take the shiny things. He followed them. + +He caught up with them and said, "Stop, you two. What do you have in your pocket?" + +Tom and Sam were scared. They knew they were caught. They took out the shiny things and gave them to the tall man. They said, "We are sorry. We made a mistake. Please don't tell Mom." + +The tall man was angry. He said, "You should not steal. Stealing is wrong. It hurts the people who own the things. It also hurts you. You lose your honesty and trust. You should be ashamed of yourselves." + +He took Tom and Sam to their Mom. He told her what they did. Mom was very sad and disappointed. She said to Tom and Sam, "You have to apologize to the shop owner and return the shiny things. You also have to do extra chores at home to make up for your bad behavior. And you are not allowed to go to the mall for a month." + +Tom and Sam felt very sorry. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We are sorry, Mr. Security Guard. We are sorry, Mr. Shop Owner. We learned our lesson. We will never steal again. We will be good boys." + +The moral of the story is: Stealing is wrong and has consequences. Honesty is the best policy. +Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs and worms. One day, they found something unusual. It was shiny and round and had numbers on it. + +"What is this?" Lily asked. + +"I don't know," Ben said. "Maybe it is a toy." + +They picked it up and turned it over. It had two sticks that moved around the numbers. They heard a soft tick-tock sound. + +"It is making noise," Lily said. + +"Maybe it is alive," Ben said. + +They were curious and scared. They decided to show it to their mom. They ran to the house, holding the shiny thing. + +"Mom, mom, look what we found!" they shouted. + +Mom looked at the shiny thing. She smiled. + +"That is a watch," she said. "It tells you the time. The sticks are called hands. They point to the numbers. The numbers are called hours and minutes. A minute is a very short time. A watch helps you know when to do things, like eat or sleep or play." + +Lily and Ben were amazed. They had never seen a watch before. They wanted to learn more about it. + +"Can we keep it?" they asked. + +"Sure, you can keep it," Mom said. "But you have to share it. And you have to be careful with it. It is not a toy. It is a tool." + +Lily and Ben nodded. They thanked Mom and went back to the garden. They took turns wearing the watch and looking at the hands. They tried to guess what time it was. They felt very proud and smart. They had discovered something new and unusual. +Lily loved to read books. She had many books with pictures and words. She liked to read about animals, places, and people. She read every day with her mom or dad. + +One day, it was very gloomy outside. The sky was gray and it rained a lot. Lily could not go out and play. She felt sad and bored. She wanted to do something fun. + +She asked her mom, "Mom, can we read a book?" + +Her mom smiled and said, "Of course, Lily. What book do you want to read?" + +Lily thought for a moment. She looked at her books. She saw a book with a big red apple on the cover. She liked apples. They were sweet and crunchy. She said, "I want to read this book. It is about fruit." + +Her mom nodded and said, "That is a good choice, Lily. Fruit is good for you. It has vitamins and colors. Do you know what other fruits are in the book?" + +Lily shook her head and said, "No, mom. I want to find out." + +Her mom took the book and opened it. She sat on the couch with Lily and began to read. She pointed at the pictures and said the names of the fruits. Lily repeated after her. She saw bananas, oranges, grapes, and more. She learned that some fruits were yellow, some were orange, some were purple, and some were green. She liked the different shapes and sizes of the fruits. She said, "Mom, these fruits are beautiful. Can we eat some?" + +Her mom laughed and said, "Yes, Lily. We can eat some. I have some fruit in the kitchen. Do you want to help me make a fruit salad?" + +Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I want to help. I want to eat fruit." + +Her mom closed the book and said, "Okay, Lily. Let's go to the kitchen. Reading books is fun, but eating fruit is fun too." + +Lily hugged her mom and said, "Thank you, mom. You are the best." + +They went to the kitchen and made a fruit salad. They ate it together and enjoyed it. Lily felt happy and not bored anymore. She thought that reading books and eating fruit were both good things to do on a gloomy day. +Lily liked music. She wanted to play the violin. She saw a violin in a shop. It was gray and shiny. She asked her mom to buy it for her. + +Mom said no. She said the violin was too big and too hard for Lily. She said Lily should play with her toys instead. But Lily did not listen. She wanted the violin very much. + +One day, Lily sneaked out of the house. She ran to the shop. She saw the violin in the window. She tried to reach it. But she was too small. She climbed on a chair. She stretched her hand. She touched the violin. + +But the violin was not strong. It broke. It made a loud noise. The shopkeeper came. He was angry. He saw Lily and the broken violin. He shouted at Lily. He said she had to pay for the violin. He said it was very expensive. + +Lily was scared. She cried. She did not have any money. She wished she had listened to her mom. She wished she had not tried to play the violin. She wished she had not broken the gray violin. +Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big slide that is very wide. Anna wants to go on the slide, but Ben is scared. + +"Come on, Ben, it will be fun!" Anna says. + +"No, Anna, it is too high and too fast. I warn you, you will fall and hurt yourself!" Ben says. + +Anna does not listen to Ben. She runs to the slide and climbs up the ladder. She sits on the top and looks down. She sees a lot of people waiting at the bottom. Some of them are wearing fancy clothes and hats. + +"Wow, look at them! They are so pretty!" Anna says. + +She slides down the slide very fast. She feels the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She is happy. + +But when she reaches the bottom, she does not stop. She slides right into the people with the fancy clothes and hats. She knocks them over and makes them dirty and angry. + +"Hey, watch out, you little brat!" one of them shouts. + +"Ouch, you ruined my dress!" another one cries. + +Anna is scared and sorry. She looks for Ben, but he is not there. He ran away when he saw what happened. + +Anna wishes she had listened to Ben. He warned her, but she did not care. Now she is in trouble and has no friend. She feels sad and alone. +Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had a toy gun that could shoot water. They pretended to be famous spies who had to stop bad guys. + +One day, they saw a big bush with red berries. They thought the berries were jewels that the bad guys wanted to steal. They decided to shoot the berries with their water gun and collect them in a basket. + +"Bang, bang, bang!" Tim shouted as he shot the berries. "We got them, Kim! We are the best spies ever!" + +"Wait, Tim!" Kim said. "Don't shoot that one! It's a bee!" + +But Tim did not hear her. He shot the berry that was really a bee. The bee got angry and flew out of the bush. It buzzed around Tim's head and stung him on the nose. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Tim cried. "The berry bit me! It hurts!" + +Kim ran to him and hugged him. She took him to their mom, who put some ice on his nose. She told them that the berries were not jewels, but food for the birds and the bees. + +"Sorry, Tim," Kim said. "I tried to warn you." + +"It's okay, Kim," Tim said. "You are still my best spy partner. But next time, let's shoot something else." +Mia and Ben were very excited to decorate the big tree with their mom and dad. They had a big box of shiny ornaments that they could hang on the branches. Mia liked the red ones and Ben liked the blue ones. They took turns to pick an ornament and find a good spot for it. + +"Look, mom, I found a star!" Mia said, holding up a yellow ornament. + +"That's beautiful, Mia. You can put it on the top of the tree," mom said, lifting her up. + +"Look, dad, I found a snowman!" Ben said, holding up a white ornament. + +"That's cool, Ben. You can put it next to the star," dad said, helping him reach. + +They had fun decorating the tree until they ran out of ornaments. Then they stepped back and admired their work. The tree looked very pretty with all the colors and lights. + +"Wow, we did a great job!" Mia said, clapping her hands. + +"Yes, we did. You two are very good helpers," mom said, hugging them. + +"Can we turn off the lights and see how it looks in the dark?" Ben asked, yawning. + +"Sure, let's do that. But then it's time for bed, okay?" dad said, turning off the lights. + +They all sat on the couch and looked at the tree. It sparkled and glowed in the dark. They felt very happy and cozy. + +"Can we do this every night?" Mia asked, snuggling with mom. + +"Only until Christmas, sweetie. Then we have to take the ornaments down," mom said, stroking her hair. + +"Why?" Ben asked, frowning. + +"Because they are special for Christmas. We can't keep them up all year," dad said, smiling. + +"But I like them. They make me happy," Ben said, sounding sad. + +"I know, me too. But we can keep them in the box and use them again next year. And we can make new memories with them," mom said, kissing his cheek. + +"Okay, I guess. But can we keep the star and the snowman?" Ben asked, pointing at the tree. + +"Sure, we can keep those. They are your favorites, right?" dad said, nodding. + +"Yes, they are. Thank you, mom and dad. I love you," Ben said, smiling. + +"We love you too, Ben. And we love you too, Mia. You are our best ornaments," mom and dad said, cuddling them. + +They all said good night and went to bed, dreaming of Christmas. +Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play together. One day, they went with their mom to the grocery store. Mom told them to stay close to her and not to run away. + +But Anna and Ben saw a big pile of colorful balls in a corner. They wanted to play with them. They ran to the balls and started to throw them at each other. They laughed and had fun. + +Mom did not see them. She was busy looking for milk and eggs. She finished her shopping and went to the cashier. She paid for the grocery and looked for Anna and Ben. She did not find them. She felt frightened. She asked the cashier if he saw two children with red shirts and blue jeans. He said no. + +Mom ran around the store, calling their names. She was very worried. She thought they were lost or taken by a bad person. + +Anna and Ben heard their mom's voice. They stopped playing and felt guilty. They knew they did something wrong. They hid behind the balls and did not answer. They hoped their mom would not find them. They were scared of getting in trouble. + +But mom did find them. She saw their feet sticking out from behind the balls. She pulled them out and hugged them. She was angry and relieved at the same time. She said, "Where were you? I was looking for you everywhere. You made me so frightened. Why did you lie to me and run away?" + +Anna and Ben looked down and said sorry. They said they wanted to play with the balls and forgot to tell her. They said they would not do it again. + +Mom said, "I'm glad you're safe, but you have to listen to me. You can't lie to me and run away. That's very dangerous. You could get hurt or lost. You have to stay with me when we go to the grocery store. Do you understand?" + +Anna and Ben nodded and said yes. They hugged their mom and said they loved her. Mom said she loved them too. She took their hands and walked to the car. She said, "Next time, we can play with the balls at home. But now, let's go home and have some cookies." +Ben and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw a big pond with ducks and fish. Ben and Lily wanted to feed the ducks. Mom gave them some bread to break and throw. + +"Look, Mom, the ducks are coming!" Lily said. She threw a piece of bread into the water. A duck swam fast and ate it. + +"Me too, me too!" Ben said. He threw a bigger piece of bread. But he threw it too hard. It made a big splash in the water. The duck got scared and flew away. + +"Ben, you scared the duck!" Lily said. She was sad. She liked the duck. + +"I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to scare the duck." Ben said. He was sorry too. He liked the duck too. + +Mom hugged them and said, "It's okay, Ben and Lily. The duck will come back soon. He knows you are nice and want to share your bread. Let's wait and see." + +They sat on the grass and waited. The pond was calm and shiny. They saw the fish swim and the birds sing. After a while, the duck came back. He brought a friend. They quacked and looked at Ben and Lily. + +"Hello, ducks!" Ben and Lily said. They smiled and threw some more bread. The ducks ate and thanked them. Ben and Lily were happy. They had fun at the park. +Lily liked math. She liked to count and add and take away. She had a math book with many pages and pictures. She always held her math book when she went to bed. + +One day, Lily went to the park with her mom and dad. She brought her math book with her. She wanted to show it to her friends. The park was lively. There were many kids playing and laughing. Lily saw Ben and Mia. They were her best friends. + +"Hi, Lily!" Ben and Mia said. "What do you have?" + +Lily smiled. She opened her math book. "Look, this is my math book. It has numbers and shapes and colors. Do you want to see?" + +Ben and Mia nodded. They liked math too. They sat down with Lily on the grass. They looked at her math book. They counted and added and took away. They had fun. + +But then, a big boy came. He was mean. He saw Lily's math book. He wanted it. + +"Hey, what's that?" he said. He grabbed Lily's math book. He pulled it away from her. + +"Hey, stop!" Lily said. "That's mine! Give it back!" + +"No, it's mine now!" the big boy said. He ran away with Lily's math book. + +Lily was sad. She cried. Ben and Mia were angry. They wanted to help Lily. + +"Come on, Lily!" Ben said. "We'll get your math book back!" + +"Yeah, let's go!" Mia said. "We'll find that big boy!" + +Lily wiped her tears. She nodded. She held Ben and Mia's hands. They ran after the big boy. + +They saw him near the slide. He was looking at Lily's math book. He did not understand it. He was bored. + +"Hey, you!" Ben shouted. "Give Lily her math book back!" + +The big boy looked up. He saw Ben, Mia and Lily. He was scared. He knew they were mad. + +"Uh, no, I like it!" he lied. He held Lily's math book tight. + +"No, you don't!" Mia said. "You don't know math! You don't deserve it!" + +Lily stepped forward. She was brave. She looked at the big boy. She said, "Please, give me my math book back. It's very important to me. I love math. You can have something else. I have a ball. Do you want it?" + +The big boy thought. He did not like math. He liked balls. He nodded. He gave Lily her math book back. He took her ball. + +"Thank you," Lily said. She smiled. She hugged her math book. + +"You're welcome," the big boy said. He smiled too. He bounced the ball. + +Lily, Ben and Mia were happy. They went back to the grass. They looked at Lily's math book. They counted and added and took away. They had fun. They learned math. They made a new friend. +Poppy was a little girl who loved to read. She had many books in her room, with pictures and words. She liked to read them by herself, or with her mommy and daddy. Sometimes, she read them to her teddy bear, who listened very well. + +One day, Poppy went to the park with her mommy. She brought her favorite book, a story about a princess and a dragon. She wanted to read it on the bench, while her mommy watched her. But when she opened her book, she saw something terrible. Someone had ripped the pages, and drawn on them with a marker. Poppy felt very sad and angry. She cried, "Who did this to my book? It is ruined!" + +Her mommy hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, Poppy. Maybe someone was very mean and did not like books. Or maybe someone was very bored and did not have anything to read. Either way, they should not have done that. It was very wrong." + +Poppy nodded and said, "Yes, it was very wrong. Books are good. They make me happy and smart. I wish everyone could read and love books." + +Her mommy smiled and said, "That's a very nice wish, Poppy. Maybe you can help make it come true. How about we go to the library and donate some of your old books, so other children can read them and enjoy them?" + +Poppy thought for a moment, and then said, "Okay, mommy. That sounds like a good idea. Maybe then, no one will ruin books anymore. And maybe, they will make new friends, like me and teddy." + +They packed up their things and walked to the library, holding hands. Poppy felt better, knowing that she could share her books with others, and that reading was a wonderful thing. + +The moral value of the story is: Reading is a valuable and enjoyable activity, and we should respect and share books with others. +Lily and Max were twins who liked to play together. One day, they decided to make a snowman in the backyard. They rolled big balls of snow and stacked them on top of each other. They found a carrot, a hat, and a scarf to decorate their snowman. + +"Look, our snowman is so nice!" Lily said, smiling. + +"Yes, he is!" Max agreed. "But he looks cold. Maybe we should give him some cocoa." + +Lily thought that was a good idea. She ran inside the house and asked Mom for some cocoa. Mom smiled and poured some hot cocoa in two mugs. She gave one to Lily and one to Max. + +"Be careful, it's hot," Mom said. "And don't spill it on the snowman." + +Lily and Max nodded and went outside with their mugs. They walked carefully to the snowman and offered him some cocoa. + +"Here, Mr. Snowman, this will warm you up," Lily said, holding her mug near his mouth. + +But the snowman did not drink. He did not say anything. He just stared at them with his coal eyes. + +"Maybe he doesn't like cocoa," Max said, shrugging. + +"Or maybe he can't drink because he has no mouth," Lily said, looking at the carrot nose. + +"Let's make him a mouth," Max said. He took a stick and carved a smile on the snowman's face. + +"There, now he can drink," Max said, holding his mug again. + +But the snowman still did not drink. He did not smile. He just complained. + +"Ouch, ouch, ouch!" the snowman said in a squeaky voice. "That's too hot! You're melting me!" + +Lily and Max gasped. They dropped their mugs and stepped back. The cocoa spilled on the snow and made a brown puddle. + +"Sorry, Mr. Snowman, we didn't mean to hurt you," Lily said, feeling sorry. + +"Yeah, we just wanted to be nice," Max said, feeling embarrassed. + +The snowman glared at them and shook his head. + +"Next time, bring me some ice cream," he said, grumbling. + +Lily and Max ran inside the house and told Mom what happened. Mom laughed and hugged them. + +"Don't worry, my loves, it was just a joke," she said. "Dad was hiding behind the snowman and making funny noises. He wanted to surprise you." + +Lily and Max looked out the window and saw Dad waving at them. He was wearing a big coat and a hat. He had a cocoa mustache on his face. + +"Hi, kids, did you like my snowman voice?" he asked, smiling. + +Lily and Max giggled and forgave him. They went outside and hugged him and the snowman. They decided to share their cocoa with Dad and make another snowman for Mom. They had a lot of fun in the snow. +Lily liked to play in the garden with her hose. She would water the flowers, the grass and sometimes the cat. The cat did not like it, but Lily thought it was funny. One day, Lily saw something shiny under a big bush. She was curious and wanted to see what it was. + +She took her hose and walked to the bush. She moved the leaves and saw a small box. It was silver and had a lock on it. Lily wondered what was inside. She tried to open it, but it was too hard. She thought maybe the hose could help. She turned on the water and aimed it at the lock. She hoped the water would make the lock open. + +But something else happened. The water hit the box and made a loud noise. The box started to shake and glow. Lily was scared and dropped the hose. She ran away from the bush and hid behind her mom. She told her mom what she saw. Her mom did not believe her. She said it was just a toy or a prank. She went to the bush to check. + +But when she got there, the box was gone. There was only a wet spot on the ground and a mysterious smell in the air. Lily and her mom looked at each other. They did not know what happened. They decided to go inside and have a snack. They never found out what was in the box or where it went. Lily never played with the hose again. She thought it was too dangerous. She liked to play with her ball instead. +Lila and Ben are playing with a big red ball in the park. They like to kick the ball and catch it. They have a lot of fun. + +But then, a big dog comes and runs after the ball. The dog is faster than Lila and Ben. The dog grabs the ball with its teeth and runs away. + +"Hey, that's our ball!" Ben shouts. He and Lila run after the dog. They hope they can get the ball back. + +The dog runs to a tree and drops the ball. But the ball is not the same. It has a big hole and a knot. The dog has bitten the ball and tied it with its tongue. + +"Oh no, look at our ball!" Lila says. She feels sad. She likes the red ball. She picks up the ball and tries to untie the knot. But the knot is too tight. + +"Maybe we can fix it," Ben says. He tries to help Lila. But the hole is too big and the knot is too tight. + +They hear a voice behind them. It is the dog's owner. He is a nice man. He has seen what happened. + +"I'm sorry, kids. My dog likes to play with balls, but he doesn't know how to be gentle. He ruined your ball. That's not nice," he says. + +He takes out a new ball from his bag. It is also red, but bigger and softer. He gives it to Lila and Ben. + +"Here, this is for you. I hope you like it. It's a new ball. You can play with it and have fun. And don't worry, I'll teach my dog to be more careful," he says. + +Lila and Ben smile. They are happy. They thank the man and the dog. They like the new ball. They kick it and catch it. They have a lot of fun. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes they would miss the ball and fall on the grass. They would laugh and get up and try again. + +"Look, Lily, I can stretch my leg very high!" Ben said, lifting his foot above his head. + +"Wow, Ben, that is incredible!" Lily said, clapping her hands. "Can you stretch your arms too?" + +Ben nodded and stretched his arms wide. He felt like a big bird. He flapped his arms and made a funny noise. Lily giggled and joined him. They pretended to fly around the park. + +"Kids, it's time to go home!" their mom called from the bench. She had a big smile on her face. She liked to watch them play and have fun. + +"Okay, mom!" Lily and Ben said. They ran to their mom and gave her a hug. They picked up their ball and followed her to the car. + +"Did you have a good time at the park?" their mom asked. + +"Yes, mom, we had a great time!" Lily and Ben said. "We kicked the ball and stretched and flew like birds!" + +"That sounds wonderful!" their mom said. "You are very creative and strong!" + +Lily and Ben smiled. They loved their mom and their home. They felt happy and tired. They closed their eyes and dreamed of flying. +Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the garden. They see many plants. Some plants are big and green. Some plants are small and colorful. Some plants are dead and brown. + +"Look, Mia, this plant is dead," Tom says. He picks up the plant and shakes it. The leaves fall off. + +"Why is it dead, Tom?" Mia asks. She feels sad for the plant. + +"I don't know, Mia. Maybe it was too hot or too dry. Maybe it was too old or too sick. Maybe it did not have enough water or food," Tom says. He tries to make the plant stand up, but it falls down. + +"Can we make it alive again, Tom?" Mia asks. She hopes the plant can be happy. + +"I don't think so, Mia. Dead means it cannot grow or breathe or smile anymore. Dead means it is gone forever," Tom says. He puts the plant on the ground. + +"That is very sad, Tom. I don't like dead things. I like alive things. Alive things can play and laugh and hug," Mia says. She hugs Tom. + +"Me too, Mia. I like alive things. I like you, Mia. You are my friend. You make me laugh and hug," Tom says. He hugs Mia back. + +They see a butterfly. The butterfly is alive. It is colorful and pretty. It flies around the plants. It lands on a flower. + +"Look, Tom, a butterfly! It is alive! It is not dead! It is happy!" Mia says. She points at the butterfly. + +"Yes, Mia, a butterfly! It is alive! It is not dead! It is happy!" Tom says. He smiles at the butterfly. + +They run after the butterfly. They laugh and play. They forget about the dead plant. They are happy. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and go to the park. But sometimes they quarrel. They quarrel when they want the same toy or the same snack. They quarrel when they are tired or bored. + +One day, their mom takes them to the shop. She needs to buy some milk and bread. Anna and Ben want to help. They each take a basket and put things in it. But they do not agree on what to put. Anna wants to put apples and cheese. Ben wants to put bananas and crackers. They quarrel over the baskets. They pull and push and shout. + +Their mom is not happy. She tells them to stop quarreling and share. She says they can each choose one thing they like. But Anna and Ben do not listen.
