+"Hey, that's my juice!" Lily said. She ran after Tom.
+
+Tom opened the bottle and poured some juice into his car. He replaced the cap and shook the car.
+
+"See, now it has fuel!" he said. He tried to make his car move, but nothing happened. Instead, the juice spilled out of the car and made it sticky and wet.
+
+"Uh-oh, that's not good!" Tom said.
+
+Lily reached the table and saw what Tom had done. She was angry and sad. She liked her juice and she wanted to drink it. She also wanted to play with her car, but now it had no fuel.
+
+"Tom, you're so mean! You wasted my juice and you broke your car!" she said. She pushed Tom and grabbed her car.
+
+Tom fell to the ground and started to cry. He was sorry and scared. He wanted to play with Lily and his car, but now he had nothing.
+
+"Lily, I'm sorry! Please don't be mad!" he said.
+
+But Lily didn't listen. She ran away with her car and left Tom alone. She didn't want to play with him anymore.
+
+The end.
+Lily and her mom went to the grocery store to buy some food. Lily liked to look at all the different things in the store. She saw green apples, green beans, green grapes and green lettuce. She wanted to eat them all.
+
+"Mom, can I have some green food?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, honey, you can have one green thing. What do you want?" Mom said.
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She decided she wanted green juice. She saw a big bottle of green juice on a shelf. She reached for it, but it was too high for her.
+
+"Mom, can you help me get the green juice?" Lily said.
+
+Mom was busy looking at something else. She did not hear Lily. Lily tried to get the green juice by herself. She climbed on a cart, then on a box, then on another shelf. She almost got the green juice, but then she slipped and fell. The green juice bottle fell with her. It broke on the floor and poured everywhere.
+
+Lily was scared and hurt. She cried loudly. Mom heard her and ran to her. She saw the mess and the broken glass. She was angry and worried.
+
+"Lily, what did you do? You could have cut yourself! You made a big mess! You have to pay for the green juice! You are in big trouble!" Mom said.
+
+Lily felt bad. She wished she did not want the green juice. She wished she listened to Mom. She wished she had a good day. But she did not. She had a bad day.
+Sara and Lily were best friends. They liked to play with dolls and dress up. One day, they found a big box in the garage. It was full of pretty clothes and hats and shoes. Sara and Lily were very happy. They wanted to try them all.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a pink dress with flowers. It is so pretty!" Sara said. She put on the dress and twirled around.
+
+"You look like a princess, Sara. Can I try it too?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, it is mine. You can have another one. There are many in the box." Sara said. She did not want to share the dress. She liked it too much.
+
+Lily was sad. She looked in the box and saw a blue dress with stars. It was also pretty. She put on the dress and smiled.
+
+"Look, Sara, I found a blue dress with stars. It is so pretty!" Lily said. She hoped Sara would like it too.
+
+Sara looked at Lily and frowned. She did not like the blue dress. She thought it was ugly. She wanted Lily to take it off.
+
+"No, it is not pretty. It is ugly. You look like a clown, Lily. Take it off now!" Sara said. She was mean to Lily. She did not care about her feelings.
+
+Lily was hurt. She did not understand why Sara was so mean. She liked the blue dress. She thought it was pretty. She did not want to take it off.
+
+"No, it is not ugly. It is pretty. I like it. I will not take it off!" Lily said. She was brave. She stood up to Sara.
+
+Sara was angry. She did not like that Lily did not listen to her. She wanted to make Lily do what she wanted. She had a bad idea. She saw a bucket of water near the box. She grabbed the bucket and ran to Lily.
+
+"Take it off, or I will fill you with water!" Sara said. She winked at Lily. She thought it was a funny joke.
+
+Lily was scared. She did not think it was a funny joke. She did not want to get wet. She tried to run away, but Sara was faster. She threw the bucket of water at Lily. The water splashed all over Lily and the blue dress. The dress got wet and ruined. Lily cried.
+
+"Sara, why did you do that? You are so mean! You ruined my dress! I hate you!" Lily said. She was very sad and angry. She did not want to be friends with Sara anymore.
+
+Sara did not feel sorry. She did not say sorry. She laughed. She thought it was funny. She did not care about Lily. She only cared about the pink dress.
+
+"I did it because I can. You are so silly, Lily. You should have listened to me. The pink dress is the only pretty one. The blue dress is ugly. You are ugly. I do not want to be friends with you anymore." Sara said. She was very mean and rude. She did not want to be friends with Lily anymore.
+
+Sara and Lily were not friends anymore. They never played with dolls and dress up again. They never talked to each other again. They were both unhappy. Sara lost a good friend. Lily lost a pretty dress. They both lost a lot of fun. The end.
+Tim and Lily liked to act in their backyard. They had a big box full of costumes and props. They pretended to be different people and animals and had fun.
+
+One day, they decided to act out a story about a brave knight and a princess. Tim wore a shiny helmet and a sword. Lily wore a pretty dress and a crown. They made a castle out of cardboard and a dragon out of a blanket.
+
+"Help, help!" Lily shouted. "The dragon is coming to get me!"
+
+"Don't worry, princess!" Tim said. "I will save you!"
+
+He ran towards the dragon and waved his sword. But the dragon was not afraid. It roared and breathed fire. Tim was scared and dropped his sword.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily said. "What will we do?"
+
+But then, they heard a loud bark. It was their dog, Spot. He had been hiding under the blanket. He jumped out and licked Tim and Lily. They laughed and hugged him.
+
+"Spot, you are the best!" Tim said. "You scared away the dragon!"
+
+"You are our hero!" Lily said. "You saved the day!"
+
+They gave Spot a treat and played with him. They forgot about the dragon and the castle. They were happy.
+
+The end.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to crawl. She crawled under the table, under the bed, and under the sofa. She crawled so fast that her mom and dad could not catch her.
+
+One day, Lily's mom had a meeting on her computer. She told Lily to play quietly in her room while she talked to some people. Lily nodded, but she was curious. She wanted to see who her mom was talking to.
+
+She crawled out of her room and down the hall. She crawled to the door of her mom's office and peeked inside. She saw her mom sitting in front of a big screen with many faces on it. They were talking about something Lily did not understand.
+
+Lily crawled closer to the screen. She wanted to say hello to the faces. She crawled under the desk and reached for the screen. She touched a button and the screen went blank.
+
+"Oh no!" her mom said. "What happened?"
+
+Lily crawled out from under the desk and smiled. "Hi, Mommy!" she said. "I wanted to see your meeting."
+
+Her mom looked at her and sighed. She was not angry, but she was not happy either. She picked up Lily and hugged her. "Lily, you are a very curious girl, but you should not touch my computer when I have a meeting. You made the screen go away and I lost my connection. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded. She was sorry. She did not mean to make trouble. She just wanted to see the faces. "I'm sorry, Mommy," she said. "Can I see your meeting again?"
+
+Her mom smiled and shook her head. "No, sweetie, the meeting is over. Maybe next time I can show you some of the faces, but only if you promise not to touch anything. Okay?"
+
+Lily nodded again. She gave her mom a kiss and a hug. "Okay, Mommy. I promise. I love you."
+
+"I love you too, Lily. Now, let's go and find something else for you to crawl on."
+Tom and Lily are brother and sister. They like to play in the yard with their dog, Spot. Spot is a big, brown dog with a black spot on his eye. He is very friendly and likes to run and jump.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily find a dirty chain in the yard. They wonder what it is for. They decide to play with it. They wrap it around Spot's neck and pretend he is a lion. They make loud roars and chase each other.
+
+"Spot, you are a scary lion!" Tom says.
+
+"No, he is a nice lion!" Lily says.
+
+Spot wags his tail and licks their faces. He likes to play with them.
+
+But then, Mom wakes up from her nap. She looks out the window and sees them with the chain. She is not happy. She runs out and takes the chain off Spot.
+
+"Tom, Lily, what are you doing?" she asks. "This chain is not a toy. It is dangerous. It can hurt Spot or you. Where did you find it?"
+
+Tom and Lily look down. They feel bad. They did not know the chain was dangerous. They just wanted to have fun.
+
+"We found it in the yard, Mom," Tom says.
+
+"Someone must have left it here by mistake," Mom says. "We have to throw it away. It is dirty and rusty. Come on, let's go inside and wash our hands. And Spot, you need a bath too. You are all dirty."
+
+Tom and Lily follow Mom inside. They say sorry to her and to Spot. They promise to be more careful next time. They love their dog and their mom. They do not want to hurt them.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play hide and seek. Lily is good at hiding. Ben is good at finding. They are a good team.
+
+One day, they play hide and seek in the park. Lily runs and finds a big tree. She hides behind the tree. She thinks Ben will not see her. She is happy.
+
+Ben looks for Lily. He sees many places to hide. He sees a slide, a swing, a bench, a flower. He does not see Lily. He is sad.
+
+He walks near the big tree. He hears a giggle. He thinks it is Lily. He peeks behind the tree. He sees Lily. He says, "I found you!"
+
+Lily sees Ben. She is surprised. She says, "How did you find me?"
+
+Ben says, "I heard you giggle. You should be quiet when you hide."
+
+Lily says, "Sorry. I was happy. You are a good finder."
+
+Ben says, "Thank you. You are a good hider. But next time, try a different place."
+
+Lily says, "OK. You are a good friend."
+
+Ben says, "You are a good friend, too. Let's play again."
+
+They hug and smile. They are a good team. They have fun.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a ball and a bike. They take turns to use them.
+
+One day, Anna wants to use the bike more. She does not give it to Ben when it is his turn. Ben is sad and angry. He says, "Anna, you are not honest. You said we would share. Give me the bike now."
+
+Anna does not listen. She rides the bike away from Ben. She thinks she is smart. But she is not careful. She hits a rock and falls off the bike. She hurts her knee and cries.
+
+Ben hears her cry. He runs to her and helps her up. He says, "Are you okay, Anna? I am sorry you fell. Do you want me to get a band-aid?"
+
+Anna feels bad. She says, "I am sorry, Ben. I was not honest. I was selfish. I should have shared the bike with you. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Ben smiles. He says, "Of course I can forgive you, Anna. You are my friend. Friends make mistakes, but they also become honest. Let's go to the nurse and get a band-aid. Then we can play again."
+
+Anna and Ben hug. They go to the nurse and get a band-aid. Then they go back to the park and play. They share the ball and the bike. They are happy and honest.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play and talk. One day, they had to study for a test. Lily and Tom did not like to study. They liked to eat chocolate.
+
+"Let's eat some chocolate," Tom said. "It will make us happy and smart."
+
+"OK," Lily said. "But we have to study too. The test is hard."
+
+They ate some chocolate. It was sweet and yummy. They ate more and more. They forgot to study. They only ate chocolate.
+
+The next day, they went to school. The sun was bright. It hurt their eyes. They felt sick. Their tummies hurt. They had too much chocolate.
+
+They had to take the test. They did not know the answers. They guessed and wrote. They felt bad. They wanted to go home.
+
+The teacher checked the test. She was angry. Lily and Tom did very bad. They failed the test.
+
+"You did not study," the teacher said. "You only ate chocolate. That was wrong. You have to study hard. No more chocolate for you."
+
+Lily and Tom were sad. They cried. They wished they had studied. They learned a lesson. Chocolate is good, but not too much. Study is better.
+Lila and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big stick on the ground. Lila wants to pick it up, but Ben says no.
+
+"That is my stick. I saw it first," Ben says.
+
+"No, it is mine. I like it. It is purple," Lila says.
+
+They both pull on the stick, but it does not move. It is stuck in the dirt. They try to push it, but it does not budge. They are angry and sad.
+
+A dog comes by and sniffs the stick. He likes it too. He digs around the stick with his paws. He frees the stick from the dirt. He picks it up with his mouth and runs away.
+
+Lila and Ben are shocked. They watch the dog go. They look at each other. They feel silly.
+
+"Maybe we can share another stick," Lila says.
+
+"OK, let's find one," Ben says.
+
+They hold hands and walk around the park. They see many sticks, but none are purple. They do not mind. They are happy to play together.
+Lily and Ben are best friends. They live in the same country, but in different towns. They like to talk on the phone and send each other pictures and letters. One day, Lily gets a big envelope from Ben. She is very happy and excited. She opens it and sees a beautiful drawing of a rainbow and a sun. Under the drawing, Ben wrote: "To Lily, you are my adorable friend. I miss you a lot. Love, Ben."
+
+Lily loves the drawing. She wants to hang it on her wall. She runs to her room with the envelope. But on the way, she trips on a toy and falls. The envelope flies out of her hand and lands on the floor. Lily hears a loud rip. She looks and sees that the drawing is torn in half. She feels very sad and angry. She starts to cry.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, look what happened!" she shouts. Her mommy comes and sees the torn drawing. She hugs Lily and says: "Oh, honey, I'm sorry. It was an accident. Don't cry. We can fix it."
+
+"How?" Lily asks, sniffing.
+
+"We can use some tape and glue. It will be like new. And I'm sure Ben will understand. He knows you love his drawing. Maybe you can call him and tell him what happened. He will still be your friend." Mommy says.
+
+"Really?" Lily says, feeling a little better.
+
+"Really. Come on, let's go to the kitchen and find some tape and glue. And then we can call Ben and thank him for his drawing. He will be happy to hear your voice." Mommy says.
+
+Lily nods and smiles. She wipes her tears and holds the drawing pieces. She follows her mommy to the kitchen. She hopes Ben will not be mad at her. She thinks he is the most adorable friend in the country.
+Lily and Ben like to play with their toys in the yard. They have a big box of toys with cars, dolls, balls and more. One day, they find a new toy in the box. It is a long, thin thing with a handle and a string. Lily thinks it is a whip. She wants to try it.
+
+She takes the whip and runs to Ben. She says, "Look, Ben, I have a whip. I can make it go snap!" She raises the whip and swings it in the air. It makes a loud noise. Ben is scared. He says, "Lily, stop! That is not a toy. That is a bad thing. It can hurt you or me."
+
+But Lily does not listen. She thinks the whip is harmless. She says, "No, Ben, it is fun. Watch me whip the flowers." She runs to the flower bed and whips the flowers. The petals fly everywhere. The flowers are sad. Ben is sad too. He likes the flowers. He says, "Lily, stop! You are hurting the flowers. They are alive. They have feelings."
+
+But Lily does not care. She says, "No, Ben, they are not alive. They are just pretty. I like to whip them. It is fun." She whips more flowers. Ben is angry. He says, "Lily, stop! You are being mean. I don't want to play with you anymore." He takes his toys and goes inside. He leaves Lily alone.
+
+Lily is confused. She does not understand why Ben is mad. She thinks he is silly. She says, "Fine, Ben, go away. I don't need you. I have my whip. I can whip anything I want." She looks around and sees a big, furry thing on the fence. It is a cat. Lily thinks it is a toy. She says, "Look, a toy cat. I can whip it too." She runs to the cat and raises the whip.
+
+But the cat is not a toy. The cat is real. The cat is angry. The cat does not like to be whipped. The cat jumps on Lily and scratches her face. Lily screams. She drops the whip. She runs inside. She is hurt. She is scared. She is sorry.
+
+The end.
+Lily wanted to wear her new dress. It was pink and had flowers on it. She loved it very much. She asked her mom to help her put it on.
+
+"Mom, can you help me with my dress?" Lily said.
+
+"Of course, sweetie. Let me see your dress." Mom said. She took the dress from Lily and helped her slip it over her head. Then she zipped it up at the back.
+
+Lily looked at herself in the mirror. She smiled. She felt like a princess. She wanted to show her dress to everyone.
+
+"Mom, can I go outside and play?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, honey. But be careful. Don't get your dress dirty." Mom said.
+
+Lily nodded. She ran to the door and opened it. She saw her friend Sam playing with his ball in the yard. She wanted to join him.
+
+"Hi, Sam. Look at my dress. Do you like it?" Lily said.
+
+"Hi, Lily. Your dress is pretty. But can you play with me?" Sam said.
+
+"Yes, I can. What are we playing?" Lily said.
+
+"We are playing catch. I throw the ball and you catch it." Sam said.
+
+"OK. That sounds fun." Lily said.
+
+Sam threw the ball to Lily. Lily tried to catch it. But the ball was too high. She had to jump to reach it. She jumped and stretched her arms. But her dress was too tight. It ripped at the seam.
+
+Lily heard a loud sound. She looked down. She saw a big hole in her dress. She felt sad. She dropped the ball.
+
+"Oh no. My dress. It's broken." Lily said.
+
+Sam saw what happened. He felt sorry for Lily.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to break your dress." Sam said.
+
+"It's OK, Sam. It's not your fault. But I have to go home now. Mom will be mad at me." Lily said.
+
+Lily picked up her dress and ran to the door. She knocked on it. Mom opened it.
+
+"Mom, I'm sorry. I broke my dress." Lily said.
+
+Mom saw the hole in Lily's dress. She hugged her.
+
+"It's OK, Lily. I'm not mad at you. Accidents happen. We can fix your dress later. Don't worry. You still look like a princess to me." Mom said.
+Lily and Mom went to the park. It was a sunny day. Lily liked to play on the swings and the slide. Mom liked to read a book on the bench. Lily saw a big red umbrella near the bench. She wanted to play with it.
+
+"Mom, can I play with the umbrella?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. It is not ours. Someone might come back for it," Mom said.
+
+Lily took the umbrella and ran to the grass. She opened and closed it. She pretended it was a tent. She pretended it was a boat. She pretended it was a flower. She had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, the sky turned dark. The wind blew hard. The rain came down. Lily got wet and cold. She ran back to the bench. But Mom was not there.
+
+"Mom! Mom! Where are you?" Lily cried.
+
+She looked around. She saw Mom walking away. Mom had a big bag and a coat. Mom did not see Lily. Mom did not hear Lily. Mom forgot Lily.
+
+Lily was scared and sad. She hugged the umbrella. She hoped Mom would come back. But Mom did not come back. Lily was alone in the park. The rain did not stop. The umbrella did not help. Lily wished she had not played with the umbrella. She wished she had stayed with Mom. She wished Mom had not forgotten her.
+Anna and Ben were going to camp with their mom and dad. They were very happy. They packed their bags, their toys and their snacks. They got in the car and drove for a long time.
+
+"Are we there yet?" Anna asked.
+
+"Soon, sweetie," mom said. "Look, the sky is clear and blue. We can see the stars at night."
+
+Anna looked out the window and saw the trees and the hills. She smiled. She liked the stars.
+
+Ben was bored. He did not like the car. He wanted to play. He sighed.
+
+"Can we play a game?" he asked.
+
+"Sure, what game do you want to play?" dad said.
+
+"I spy with my little eye, something that is green," Ben said.
+
+"Is it a tree?" Anna guessed.
+
+"No," Ben said.
+
+"Is it a grass?" mom guessed.
+
+"No," Ben said.
+
+"Is it a frog?" dad guessed.
+
+"No," Ben said. "You are all wrong. It is my shirt!"
+
+Ben laughed. Anna, mom and dad laughed too. They had fun playing the game.
+
+They arrived at the camp. They got out of the car and saw a big tent, a fire and a lake. They were very excited. They helped mom and dad set up the tent and the sleeping bags. They ate hot dogs and marshmallows. They sang songs and told stories. They saw the stars and the moon.
+
+Anna and Ben hugged mom and dad. They said good night. They went to sleep in the tent. They dreamed of the camp. They were very happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, their mom called them. "Tom, Lily, it's time to go home. The sun is going down and it will be dark soon."
+
+Tom and Lily did not want to go home. They wanted to keep playing. They said, "No, mom, please, just a little more. We want to see the sunset. It is so pretty and colorful."
+
+Their mom was grumpy. She said, "No, you have to go home now. You have to eat dinner and take a bath and go to bed. You can see the sunset tomorrow. Come on, let's go."
+
+Tom and Lily were sad. They picked up their ball and followed their mom. They looked at the sky and saw the sun getting lower and lower. They missed the sunset. They wished they could stay in the park. They hoped they could see the sunset tomorrow.
+Lily was a big girl who liked to do things by herself. She was independent and did not need help from anyone. One day, she went to the park with her mom and saw a big bench. She wanted to sit on it and pretend it was a boat.
+
+"Mom, can I sit on the bench?" she asked.
+
+"Sure, honey, but be careful. The bench is heavy and you might fall off," her mom said.
+
+Lily nodded and ran to the bench. She climbed on it and sat in the middle. She felt proud and happy. She waved to her mom and said, "Look, mom, I'm on a boat!"
+
+Her mom smiled and watched her. She was glad that Lily was having fun and learning new things.
+
+But then, Lily had an idea. She wanted to see how much the bench weighed. She got up and tried to lift one end of the bench. She pushed and pulled, but the bench did not move. It was too heavy for her.
+
+"Mom, how much does the bench weigh?" she asked.
+
+"I don't know, honey, but it's a lot. You can't lift it by yourself. You need help from someone stronger," her mom said.
+
+Lily frowned. She did not like to need help. She wanted to be independent and do everything by herself. She tried to lift the bench again, but it still did not move. She felt frustrated and angry.
+
+"Mom, I don't need help. I can do it by myself. I'm a big girl!" she said.
+
+Her mom sighed and walked to her. She hugged her and said, "I know, honey, you're a big girl and you can do many things by yourself. But sometimes, it's okay to need help. It doesn't mean you're not independent. It means you're smart and brave. You can ask for help when you need it, and you can help others when they need it. That's what makes you a good friend and a good person."
+
+Lily thought about what her mom said. She realized that her mom was right. She smiled and said, "Okay, mom, I understand. Thank you for helping me. Can we sit on the bench together and pretend it's a boat?"
+
+"Of course, honey, I would love that," her mom said.
+
+They sat on the bench and hugged each other. They pretended it was a boat and sailed to different places. They had a lot of fun and learned a lot. They were independent and happy.
+Lily did not like vegetables. She thought they were boring and yucky. She only wanted to eat cake and candy and ice cream. Every day, she would demand that her mom give her sweets for dinner. But her mom knew that vegetables were good for Lily. They made her strong and healthy and smart.
+
+One day, mom had a surprise for Lily. She made a vegetable cake. It looked like a chocolate cake, but it had carrots and zucchini and spinach inside. She put some frosting and sprinkles on top to make it pretty. She told Lily that it was a special cake for her.
+
+Lily was very happy. She loved cake. She took a big bite and waited for the sweet taste. But instead, she tasted something bitter and green. She spit it out and made a face. She said, "This is not cake! This is vegetable! I hate vegetable!"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I wanted to show you that vegetables can be fun and tasty. They are not boring. They have different colors and shapes and flavors. You can make many things with them. You can make soup and salad and pizza and even cake. But you have to try them first. Will you try another bite?"
+
+Lily looked at the cake. She saw the frosting and the sprinkles. She saw the carrots and the zucchini and the spinach. She was curious. She wondered what they would taste like together. She decided to try another bite. She took a small bite and chewed slowly. She was surprised. It was not bad. It was sweet and moist and crunchy. She said, "This is not bad. This is good. I like vegetable cake!"
+
+Mom was very happy. She hugged Lily and said, "I'm glad you like it, Lily. You are a brave and smart girl. You tried something new and learned something new. You can have more cake if you want. But you also have to eat other vegetables. They are good for you. They are your friends. Will you eat other vegetables?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I will eat other vegetables. But can I have some ice cream too?"
+
+Mom laughed and said, "Yes, Lily. You can have some ice cream too. But only a little. And only after you finish your vegetables."
+Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But sometimes they do not behave. They fight over who gets what. They make a lot of noise. They do not listen to Mom and Dad.
+
+One day, Mom and Dad have to go out. They ask Grandma to watch Sara and Tom. Grandma is very nice. She makes them cookies and milk. She reads them stories. She gives them hugs and kisses.
+
+But Sara and Tom still do not behave. They want more cookies and milk. They do not share their toys and books. They do not say please and thank you. They make a mess in the living room.
+
+Grandma is not happy. She tells Sara and Tom to stop. She says they have to behave. She says they have to be kind and polite. She says they have to clean up their mess.
+
+Sara and Tom do not listen. They keep fighting and yelling. They throw their toys and books. They spill their milk. They break a teaspoon.
+
+Grandma is very sad. She says she is disappointed in Sara and Tom. She says they have to go to their room. She says they have to stay there until Mom and Dad come back.
+
+Sara and Tom feel bad. They see Grandma's sad face. They see the broken teaspoon. They see the mess they made. They realize they were wrong. They say they are sorry to Grandma. They say they love her.
+
+Grandma smiles. She says she loves them too. She says she forgives them. She says they can come out of their room. She says they can help her clean up.
+
+Sara and Tom are glad. They hug Grandma. They help her clean up. They say please and thank you. They share their toys and books. They behave.
+
+Mom and Dad come back. They see the clean living room. They see the happy faces. They praise Sara and Tom. They thank Grandma. They hug and kiss everyone.
+
+Sara and Tom are very glad. They learned a lesson. They say they will behave from now on. They say they love Mom, Dad, and Grandma. They say they had a good day.
+Tom and Lily are thirsty. They want to drink something cool and sweet. They see some oranges on the table. They ask Mom if they can have some.
+
+"Can we have some orange juice, Mom?" Tom says.
+
+"Sure, you can, but you have to make it yourself," Mom says. "Do you know how to squeeze the oranges?"
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They have seen Mom do it before. They take two oranges and a big bowl. They cut the oranges in half with a knife. They are careful not to cut themselves.
+
+They take one orange half each and squeeze it hard over the bowl. They feel the juice come out of the orange and drip into the bowl. They squeeze and squeeze until there is no more juice in the orange. They do the same with the other halves.
+
+They look at the bowl. It is full of orange juice. It looks yummy. They pour the juice into two cups. They drink it. It is cool and sweet. It makes them happy.
+
+"Yum, this is the best juice ever!" Lily says.
+
+"I agree, we made it ourselves!" Tom says.
+
+They smile at each other. They thank Mom for the oranges. They are proud of their juice. They want to squeeze more oranges later.
+One day, a hungry beetle was looking for food. He saw a big apple on a tree. He wanted to eat it, but it was too high for him. He tried to climb the tree, but he fell down. He tried to fly, but he was too heavy. He tried to ask other bugs for help, but they were busy or scared.
+
+He felt sad and tired. He was about to give up, when he saw a worm. The worm was also hungry, and he was also looking for food. He saw the apple, too, but he knew he could not reach it. He had an idea. He said to the beetle, "Hello, friend. I have a plan. If we work together, we can get the apple. Do you want to try?"
+
+The beetle was curious. He said, "Yes, I do. What is your plan?" The worm said, "You can carry me on your back, and I can dig a hole in the apple. Then we can both eat it. What do you think?" The beetle liked the plan. He said, "That sounds good. Let's do it."
+
+So they did. The beetle lifted the worm on his back, and flew to the apple. The worm dug a hole in the apple, and made a tunnel for them. They both ate the apple, and shared it. They were happy and full. They thanked each other, and became friends.
+
+The moral of the story is: Sometimes, we can solve our problems by working together and helping each other.
+Anna and Ben liked to play in the living room. They had many toys and books and games. But their favorite thing was the fireplace. It was big and warm and made funny sounds. Sometimes they saw sparks and smoke and shapes in the fire.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben decided to play a game. They wanted to see who could disappear behind the fireplace. They took turns hiding and counting and finding each other. They had a lot of fun and laughed a lot.
+
+But then, something strange happened. Anna hid behind the fireplace and Ben counted to ten. He said, "Ready or not, here I come!" He looked behind the fireplace, but he did not see Anna. He looked again, but she was not there. He called her name, but she did not answer. He started to feel scared. Where did Anna go?
+
+He ran to the kitchen and told his mom. His mom was surprised and worried. She followed him to the living room and looked behind the fireplace. She saw a small door that Ben and Anna had never noticed before. She opened the door and saw a dark tunnel. She called Anna's name, but there was no reply. She took Ben's hand and said, "Let's go find your sister."
+
+They walked into the tunnel and saw a light at the end. They came out into a beautiful garden. There were flowers and trees and birds and butterflies. And there was Anna. She was sitting on a swing and smiling. She saw Ben and mom and said, "Hi! I found a secret place. It's so pretty and quiet. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Ben and mom were happy and relieved. They hugged Anna and said, "We were so worried about you. How did you get here?"
+
+Anna pointed to the fireplace and said, "I just followed the fire. It showed me the way. It was like magic."
+
+Ben and mom looked at the fireplace and saw that it was still burning. But it was not noisy anymore. It was soft and gentle and friendly. They smiled and said, "That's amazing. Maybe the fire likes you. Maybe it wanted to share its secret with you."
+
+They decided to stay in the garden for a while and play with Anna. They had a wonderful time. They thanked the fire for its gift and promised to come back soon. They went back to the living room and closed the door behind the fireplace. They never told anyone about their adventure. It was their special secret.
+Sam and Mia liked to play with their toy cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They made roads and bridges with blocks and books. They zoomed their cars along the roads and made noises like vroom and beep.
+
+One day, they found a pebble in the garden. It was shiny and smooth and had spots of red and blue. Sam said, "Look, Mia, a new car!" He put the pebble on a block and pretended it was a car. He zoomed it along the road and said, "This is the fastest car ever!"
+
+Mia said, "No, Sam, that is not a car. That is a pebble. It is a rock. It cannot zoom. It cannot beep. It is not a car." She took the pebble from Sam and threw it away.
+
+Sam was sad. He liked the pebble. He thought it was a special car. He ran after the pebble and picked it up. He said, "Mia, you are wrong. This is a car. It is a magic car. It can zoom and beep and fly. It is not a normal car. It is a better car."
+
+Mia said, "Sam, you are silly. That is not a magic car. That is a pebble. It is a rock. It cannot fly. It is not a better car. It is a worse car." She took the pebble from Sam and threw it away again.
+
+Sam was angry. He did not like Mia. He thought she was mean. He ran after the pebble and picked it up. He said, "Mia, you are mean. This is my car. It is a magic car. It is a better car. I do not want to play with you. I want to play with my car." He zoomed away with the pebble and left Mia alone.
+Lily and Max were playing with their toy guns in the garden. They liked to pretend they were cowboys and Indians. Lily wore a hat and a belt with a gun. Max wore a feather on his head and a bow and arrow.
+
+"Bang, bang, you're dead!" Lily shouted, pointing her gun at Max.
+
+"No, I'm not! You missed me!" Max said, dodging behind a bush.
+
+He pulled his bow and shot an arrow at Lily. The arrow had a soft tip, so it did not hurt. But it hit Lily's hat and knocked it off.
+
+"Hey, that's not fair! You shot my hat!" Lily cried, picking up her hat.
+
+"It is fair! You shot at me first!" Max said, sticking out his tongue.
+
+They glared at each other, ready to shoot again. But then they heard a loud noise. It was their dog, Spot. Spot was a big, chubby dog who liked to chase things. He saw the feather on Max's head and thought it was a bird. He ran towards Max, barking and wagging his tail.
+
+"Spot, no! Leave me alone!" Max yelled, dropping his bow and arrow.
+
+He tried to run away, but Spot was faster. He jumped on Max and licked his face. He also grabbed the feather and pulled it off.
+
+"Spot, bad dog! Give me back my feather!" Max said, trying to get the feather.
+
+But Spot thought it was a game. He ran away with the feather in his mouth.
+
+Lily saw what happened and laughed. She forgot about being angry with Max. She ran after Spot, too.
+
+"Come on, Max, let's catch Spot and get your feather back!" she said.
+
+"OK, Lily, let's go!" Max said.
+
+They chased Spot around the garden, having fun. They did not shoot at each other anymore. They were friends again.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big round thing in the sky. It is orange and bright.
+
+"Look, Tom! What is that?" Lily asks.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. It is very pretty. Maybe it is a ball," Tom says.
+
+They run to the big round thing. They want to touch it. But it is too high. They cannot reach it.
+
+"Hello, children. Do you like the big round thing?" a voice says.
+
+They look around. They see a man. He has a hat and a coat. He smiles at them.
+
+"Who are you?" Lily asks.
+
+"I am Mr. Sun. I am the big round thing. I make the day warm and bright," the man says.
+
+"Wow! You are Mr. Sun? Can we talk to you?" Tom asks.
+
+"Of course. I like to talk to children. You are very curious and kind," the man says.
+
+Lily and Tom are happy. They talk to Mr. Sun. They ask him many questions. He tells them many stories. They have fun. They learn a lot. They thank Mr. Sun for talking to them.
+
+"Goodbye, children. I have to go now. But I will come back tomorrow. And you can talk to me again," Mr. Sun says.
+
+"Goodbye, Mr. Sun. Thank you for being our friend," Lily and Tom say.
+
+They wave to Mr. Sun. He waves back. He goes behind the trees. He makes the sky orange and pink. Lily and Tom go home. They tell their parents about Mr. Sun. They are very happy. They can't wait to see him again.
+Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a rope hanging from a tree. It looks like fun.
+
+"Can we swing on the rope?" Mia asks Ben.
+
+"Yes, let's try!" Ben says. He runs to the rope and grabs it. He swings back and forth, feeling the wind in his hair. He laughs.
+
+"Wow, you are good at swinging!" Mia says. She claps her hands.
+
+"Thank you! Do you want to try?" Ben asks. He stops swinging and lets go of the rope.
+
+"Yes, please!" Mia says. She runs to the rope and grabs it. She swings back and forth, feeling the wind in her hair. She laughs too.
+
+They take turns swinging on the rope. They have a lot of fun. They feel happy and normal.
+
+A man walks by and sees them. He smiles and says, "Hello, kids. You are having a good time, I see."
+
+"Hello, sir. Yes, we are!" Ben and Mia say.
+
+"That's good. But be careful, okay? The rope might break or you might fall," the man says.
+
+"Okay, we will. Thank you, sir!" Ben and Mia say.
+
+The man nods and walks away. Ben and Mia keep swinging on the rope. They laugh some more. They are friends. They like to play in the park.
+Tom and Lily liked to play with their toy boat. They took it to the pond and made it sail on the water. They pretended they were pirates and had adventures.
+
+One day, a mean witch saw them playing. She wanted the toy boat for herself. She used her magic to make the wind blow hard and the water splash. The toy boat sailed away from Tom and Lily and came near the witch.
+
+"Ha ha, this boat is mine now!" the witch cackled. She reached out her hand to grab it. But the toy boat was red, and red was the color that the witch hated the most. It made her feel sick and angry.
+
+The witch screamed and let go of the boat. The wind stopped and the water calmed down. The toy boat sailed back to Tom and Lily. They were happy and hugged their boat.
+
+"Go away, you bad witch!" they shouted. "This is our boat and we love it!"
+
+The witch snarled and flew away on her broom. She never bothered Tom and Lily again. They kept playing with their toy boat and had more fun.
+Lily was an adventurous girl who liked to explore new things. One day, she saw a vendor with a big cart full of colorful balloons. She wanted to buy one, but she had no money.
+
+"Can I have a balloon, please?" she asked the vendor.
+
+"Sure, but you have to pay me one number for each balloon. How many numbers do you have?" the vendor said.
+
+Lily did not know what a number was. She thought it was something shiny and pretty, like a star. She looked around and saw a necklace on a lady's neck. It had many numbers on it.
+
+"I have many numbers!" she said, and ran to the lady. She tried to grab the necklace, but the lady screamed and pushed her away.
+
+"Help! Thief! Thief!" the lady shouted.
+
+Lily was scared and confused. She did not understand why the lady was angry. She just wanted a balloon. She ran back to the vendor, but he was gone. He had taken his cart and left.
+
+Lily was alone and sad. She had no balloon, no number, and no friend. She had done a bad thing, and now she was in trouble.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not take things that do not belong to you. Ask before you touch. Learn what words mean before you use them.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They had a big box of toys and a shovel. They liked to dig holes and bury their toys. Then they would pretend to be pirates and look for treasure.
+
+"Look, I found a magic wand!" Lily said, holding a shiny stick. "I can make anything happen with this!"
+
+"Really? Can you make me a cake?" Tom asked, licking his lips.
+
+"OK, let me try. Abracadabra, cake for Tom!" Lily waved the wand and pointed at Tom.
+
+But nothing happened. Tom was still hungry and sad.
+
+"Maybe you need to say something else," he said.
+
+"OK, how about this? Hocus pocus, cake for Tom!" Lily tried again.
+
+But still nothing happened. Tom was still hungry and sad.
+
+"Maybe the wand is broken," he said.
+
+"Or maybe you need to be bald," Lily said, giggling.
+
+"Bald? Why bald?" Tom asked, confused.
+
+"Because bald people are magic, like grandpa. He always has candy in his pocket and tells funny stories," Lily said.
+
+"Really? I want to be bald and magic too!" Tom said.
+
+"OK, then. I'll make you bald. Abracadabra, bald for Tom!" Lily waved the wand and pointed at Tom.
+
+But this time, something did happen. Tom felt a tickle on his head and saw his hair fall to the ground. He was bald!
+
+"Wow, it worked!" Lily said, clapping her hands.
+
+"Wow, I'm bald!" Tom said, touching his head.
+
+"Are you happy?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know. I'm bald, but I'm still hungry," Tom said.
+
+"Don't worry, I'll make you a cake. Abracadabra, cake for Tom!" Lily waved the wand and pointed at Tom.
+
+But instead of a cake, a big dog appeared. It barked and licked Tom's face.
+
+"Oops, wrong spell!" Lily said, laughing.
+
+"Oops, wrong dog!" Tom said, laughing too.
+
+They played with the dog and forgot about the cake. They were bald and happy.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play pretend. One day, they found a bottle of wine in the kitchen. They thought it was juice and wanted to drink it.
+
+"Let's pretend we are grown-ups and have a party," Tom said.
+
+"OK, but we have to be careful. Mom and Dad said we can't touch the wine," Lily said.
+
+They poured some wine into two cups and went to the living room. They put on some fake hats and glasses and pretended to talk like grown-ups.
+
+"Hello, sir. How are you today?" Tom asked.
+
+"Very well, thank you. And you, madam?" Lily answered.
+
+"I'm fine, thank you. This is a lovely party. Would you like some more wine?" Tom offered.
+
+"Yes, please. This wine is very tasty. It makes me feel funny," Lily said.
+
+They drank more and more wine until they felt dizzy and sick. They started to giggle and stumble and spill the wine on the carpet.
+
+Suddenly, they heard the door open. It was Mom and Dad. They saw the mess and the wine and the twins.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom asked.
+
+"We are playing pretend," Tom said.
+
+"We are grown-ups," Lily said.
+
+Mom and Dad were very angry and sad. They took the wine and the cups and the fake hats and glasses. They made the twins sit on the couch and explained to them why they should never drink wine.
+
+"Wine is not juice. It is not for kids. It is for grown-ups who drink it carefully. It can make you sick and hurt your body and your brain. It can also make you do bad things and get in trouble. You should never touch the wine or any other drink like that. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+"Yes, Mom. We are sorry. We didn't know. We won't do it again," Tom and Lily said.
+
+Mom and Dad hugged them and said they loved them. They also said they had to clean the carpet and go to bed early. They said they hoped they learned their lesson.
+
+The twins nodded and said they did. They realized that playing pretend was fun, but not with wine. They also learned that being grown-up was not easy and that they should listen to their parents. They decided to rise early the next day and say sorry again and help with the chores. They also decided to play with their toys and books instead of the wine. They knew that was the right thing to do.
+Lily and Ben liked to play with their toy cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They were very organized. They kept their cars in a big box and sorted them by color. They liked to make zoom sounds when they moved their cars on the floor.
+
+One day, they saw a new car in the store. It was shiny and red. It had lights and sounds. It looked like a real car. They wanted to buy it, but it was very expensive. They asked their mom if they could have it.
+
+"Sorry, kids, we don't have enough money for that car. Maybe you can save some money and buy it later," their mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben were sad. They went back to their home and played with their old cars. But they could not stop thinking about the shiny car.
+
+The next day, they had an idea. They decided to sell some of their old cars to get money for the shiny car. They took some cars from their box and put them in a bag. They did not tell their mom. They went to the park and looked for other kids who wanted to buy their cars.
+
+They found a boy who liked their cars. He had a lot of money. He said he would buy all their cars for ten dollars. Lily and Ben were happy. They gave him their bag and took his money. They ran to the store to buy the shiny car.
+
+But when they got to the store, they saw that the shiny car was gone. Someone else had bought it. They asked the storekeeper if he had another one.
+
+"Sorry, kids, that was the last one. I don't know when I will get more," the storekeeper said.
+
+Lily and Ben were very sad. They had no shiny car and no old cars. They had only ten dollars. They had made a big mistake. They wished they had not sold their cars. They missed their cars. They wanted to go back to their home and play with them.
+
+But when they got to their home, they saw that their mom was angry. She had found their empty box and their bag. She knew what they had done.
+
+"Where are your cars? What did you do with them?" she asked.
+
+Lily and Ben told her the truth. They said they were sorry. They said they wanted their cars back.
+
+But their mom was very disappointed. She said they had been very naughty and greedy. She said they had to learn a lesson. She said they could not play with any cars for a month. She took their ten dollars and gave it to charity. She sent them to their room.
+
+Lily and Ben cried. They had no cars, no money, and no fun. They had lost everything. They had a very bad day.
+Anna was sad. She missed her friend Lily, who moved to a new house far away. She wanted to play with Lily and hug her and share her toys.
+
+Her mom saw Anna's sad face and gave her a hug. "I know you miss Lily, honey. But you can still talk to her on the phone, and write to her. Do you want to make a card for Lily?"
+
+Anna nodded. She liked to make cards. She got some paper, crayons, stickers, and scissors. She drew a picture of her and Lily holding hands. She wrote "I miss you" and "You are my best friend" with her mom's help. She put some stickers of flowers and hearts on the card. She was proud of her card.
+
+She showed her card to her dad, who came home from work. He smiled and said, "Wow, Anna, that's a beautiful card. Lily will love it. You are such a dependable friend. You always remember Lily and encourage her to be happy."
+
+Anna smiled too. She felt better. She put the card in an envelope and wrote Lily's name and address. She asked her dad to take her to the mailbox. She waved goodbye to the card and hoped Lily would get it soon. She knew Lily would write back to her. They were best friends, no matter how far away they were.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play outside. One day, they go to the lake with Mom and Dad. The lake is big and blue. They see ducks and fish and frogs.
+
+"Look, Sara, a duck!" Ben says. He points to a brown duck with a green head. "Quack, quack!" he makes the sound of the duck.
+
+"Listen, Ben, a frog!" Sara says. She points to a green frog on a rock. "Ribbit, ribbit!" she makes the sound of the frog.
+
+They run to the edge of the lake. They want to touch the duck and the frog. But Mom and Dad stop them.
+
+"Be careful, Sara and Ben," Mom says. "The lake is deep and wet. You can look, but don't touch."
+
+"OK, Mom," Sara and Ben say. They listen to Mom and Dad. They are good twins.
+
+They sit on a blanket and eat sandwiches and cookies. They watch the duck and the frog. They are cheerful and happy. They love the lake.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big truck in the park. The truck has many balloons. The balloons are red, blue, yellow and green. Tom and Mia want to see the balloons.
+
+"Can we have a balloon, please?" Tom asks the truck driver.
+
+"Sure, kids. Take one each. They are for the town party," the truck driver says. He gives Tom and Mia a balloon each. Tom picks a red balloon. Mia picks a blue balloon.
+
+"Thank you, sir!" Tom and Mia say. They run to the swings with their balloons.
+
+The balloons are soft and light. Tom and Mia have fun swinging with their balloons. They laugh and sing.
+
+But then, a strong wind blows. The wind takes Tom's balloon away. Tom tries to catch it, but he can't. The balloon flies higher and higher.
+
+"Oh no! My balloon!" Tom cries. He feels sad.
+
+Mia sees Tom crying. She feels sorry for him. She has an idea.
+
+"Tom, don't cry. You can have my balloon," Mia says. She gives Tom her blue balloon.
+
+"Really? Thank you, Mia! You are very kind," Tom says. He smiles.
+
+Mia smiles too. She is happy to help Tom.
+
+But then, the wind blows again. The wind takes Mia's balloon away too. Mia tries to catch it, but she can't. The balloon flies higher and higher.
+
+"Oh no! Your balloon!" Tom says. He feels bad.
+
+Mia looks at Tom. She sees his blue balloon. She has an idea.
+
+"Tom, don't be sad. You can keep your balloon. I don't need one," Mia says. She hugs Tom.
+
+"Really? Thank you, Mia! You are very brave," Tom says. He hugs Mia back.
+
+Mia and Tom are happy. They don't care about the balloons. They have each other.
+
+They go to the slide with Tom's balloon. They have fun sliding with the balloon. They laugh and sing.
+
+The truck driver sees Tom and Mia. He smiles. He thinks they are very sweet. He has an idea.
+
+He takes two more balloons from the truck. He walks to Tom and Mia.
+
+"Hey, kids. I have a surprise for you. Here are two more balloons. One for each of you. They are for the town party," the truck driver says. He gives Tom and Mia a yellow and a green balloon.
+
+"Wow! Thank you, sir!" Tom and Mia say. They are very happy.
+
+They thank the truck driver. They run to the merry-go-round with their balloons. They have fun spinning with their balloons. They laugh and sing.
+
+The truck driver watches them. He is happy too. He thinks they are very smart. He has an idea.
+
+He takes his phone from the truck. He takes a picture of Tom and Mia with their balloons. He sends the picture to the town newspaper.
+
+The next day, Tom and Mia see their picture in the newspaper. They are very surprised.
+
+"Look, Tom! We are in the newspaper! We are famous!" Mia says.
+
+"Wow, Mia! We are in the newspaper! We are cool!" Tom says.
+
+They show their picture to their parents. Their parents are very proud.
+
+They show their picture to their friends. Their friends are very impressed.
+
+They show their picture to their teacher. Their teacher is very happy.
+
+Tom and Mia are very happy. They are not embarrassed. They are proud.
+
+They keep their balloons. They keep their picture. They keep their friendship.
+
+They are the best friends in the town.
+Tim and Sam were best friends. They liked to play with their toys in the park. One day, they saw a big rubber ball in the grass. It was red and shiny and bounced very high.
+
+"Wow, look at that ball!" Tim said. "Let's play with it!"
+
+"OK, but we have to be careful. Maybe it belongs to someone else," Sam said.
+
+They ran to the ball and took turns throwing it and catching it. They had a lot of fun. But then, they heard a loud voice.
+
+"Hey, that's my ball! Give it back!" It was a big boy with a mean face. He came over and grabbed the ball from Tim's hands. He pushed Tim to the ground and made him cry.
+
+"Hey, that's not nice! Leave him alone!" Sam said. He tried to help Tim, but the big boy was too strong. He pushed Sam away and laughed.
+
+"This is my ball, and you can't have it. You are just poor kids with no toys. Go away!" He said.
+
+Tim and Sam felt very sad and scared. They wanted to have the ball, but they didn't want to fight. They got up and ran away from the big boy. They went to a bench and hugged each other.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tim. I wish we could have the ball," Sam said.
+
+"It's OK, Sam. You are my best friend. You are better than any ball," Tim said.
+
+They smiled and wiped their tears. They decided to go home and play with their own toys. They didn't need the big rubber ball. They had each other.
+Lily was a big girl who liked to help her mom. She wanted to be independent and do things by herself. One day, mom asked Lily to help her load the car with some bags. Lily was happy to help and ran to the car.
+
+Mom gave Lily a small bag that was not too heavy. Lily lifted the bag and put it in the car. She felt proud of herself. She asked mom for another bag. Mom gave her a bigger bag that was a little heavy. Lily tried to lift the bag, but it was too hard. She felt frustrated.
+
+Mom saw Lily struggling with the bag. She said, "Lily, you are doing a great job, but this bag is too heavy for you. You can help me by holding the door open for me while I load the heavy bags. That is also very helpful and independent." Lily nodded and smiled. She held the door open for mom and watched her load the heavy bags.
+
+When mom was done, she thanked Lily for her help. She said, "Lily, you are a wonderful helper and a very independent girl. I am proud of you." Lily hugged mom and said, "I love you, mom. You are the best." They got in the car and drove away. Lily felt happy and independent.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make food with the pots and pans. Lily found a big jar of salt and poured some on a plate. She said, "This is snow. We can make snowmen with it."
+
+Ben wanted to play with the salt too. He grabbed the plate from Lily and said, "No, this is mine. I want to make a cake with it." He poured more salt on the plate and tried to shape it with his hands.
+
+Lily was angry. She said, "Give it back. You are being mean. Salt is not for cakes. It is for snowmen." She tried to take the plate from Ben, but he held it tight.
+
+Ben said, "No, you give it back. You are being silly. Snowmen are not for kitchens. They are for outside." He pushed Lily away with his arm.
+
+Lily felt a sting on her cheek. Ben had slapped her. She started to cry. She said, "Ow, that hurts. You are a bad brother. I will tell Mommy." She ran out of the kitchen.
+
+Ben felt sorry. He did not mean to hurt Lily. He said, "Wait, Lily. I am sorry. Please come back. We can share the salt." He followed Lily out of the kitchen.
+
+Mommy heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Lily crying and Ben looking sad. She said, "What happened? Why are you fighting?"
+
+Lily and Ben told Mommy what they did. Mommy said, "You should not slap your sister, Ben. That is not nice. You should say sorry and hug her. And you should not play with the salt, Lily. That is not food. You should be obedient and use the toys instead. Now, go and wash your hands and face. Then we can have a real snack."
+
+Lily and Ben said sorry to each other and hugged. They said sorry to Mommy too. They went to wash their hands and face. They were happy to have a real snack. They decided to play nicely and share their toys. They did not want to fight again.
+Sam and Lily were hungry. They wanted to eat something yummy. Mom said, "I have a surprise for you. We are going to make modern chicken!"
+
+"What is modern chicken?" Sam asked.
+
+"It is chicken that you shake in a bag with some crumbs and spices. Then you bake it in the oven. It is crispy and tasty," Mom said.
+
+"Can we help you?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course. You can help me shake the bag. Here, put on these gloves. They are fun and colorful," Mom said. She gave them each a plastic glove and a bag with chicken and crumbs.
+
+Sam and Lily put the chicken in the bag. They closed the bag and held it tight. Then they started to shake it. They shook it up and down, left and right, fast and slow. They laughed and giggled as they shook the bag.
+
+"Shake, shake, shake the chicken!" Sam sang.
+
+"Shake, shake, shake the chicken!" Lily echoed.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "You are doing a great job. Now the chicken is ready to go in the oven. Let's put it on this tray and slide it in. It will take some time to cook. While we wait, we can make a salad and set the table."
+
+Sam and Lily helped Mom with the salad and the table. They washed their hands and took off their gloves. They were proud of their work. They could not wait to try the modern chicken. They hoped it would be as yummy as Mom said.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their crayons and paper. They liked to print pictures of animals and flowers. Tom printed a big lion with a yellow mane. Lily printed a pink butterfly with blue dots.
+
+"Look at my lion!" Tom said. "He is strong and loud. He can scare anyone."
+
+"Look at my butterfly!" Lily said. "She is pretty and soft. She can fly anywhere."
+
+They showed each other their prints and smiled. They were proud of their work.
+
+But then, a naughty cat jumped on the table. He knocked over the crayons and the paper. He scratched Tom's lion and Lily's butterfly. He made a big mess.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Tom shouted. He tried to grab the cat, but the cat bit his hand. Tom felt a sharp pain. He cried out loud.
+
+"Ouch, that hurts!" Lily said. She saw Tom's hand bleeding. She ran to get a band-aid and some water. She helped Tom clean his wound and put the band-aid on.
+
+"Thank you, Lily," Tom said. He hugged his sister. "You are very kind."
+
+They looked at their prints. They were filthy and torn. They felt sad.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom," Lily said. "Your lion was very nice."
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Tom said. "Your butterfly was very nice."
+
+They decided to print new pictures. They picked up their crayons and paper. They found a new spot to play. They hoped the cat would not bother them again.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and blocks. One day, they find a big box in the park. Inside the box, there are many old toys. Some toys are broken, some toys are dirty, some toys are missing parts.
+
+"Wow, look at all these toys!" Tom says. "Can we take them home?"
+
+"I don't know," Sam says. "Maybe they belong to someone else. Maybe they are lost."
+
+Tom sees a shiny red car. He likes red cars. He picks up the car and puts it in his pocket. He does not tell Sam.
+
+Sam sees a soft brown bear. He likes bears. He picks up the bear and hugs it. He does not tell Tom.
+
+They go home with their new toys. They are happy.
+
+But the next day, they see a sign in the park. The sign says:
+
+"Help! My toys are gone! I was moving to a new house and I left my toys in a box. They are very important to me. They were my dad's toys when he was little. He gave them to me before he went to jail. He said he will come back soon and we will play with them together. Please, if you find my toys, bring them back to me. I live at 12 Green Street. Thank you. Ben."
+
+Tom and Sam feel bad. They look at their toys. They know they did something wrong. They decide to restore the toys to Ben. They put the toys back in the box and carry it to 12 Green Street. They knock on the door.
+
+A boy opens the door. He is Ben. He sees the box and his eyes light up.
+
+"My toys! You found my toys!" he says. "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
+
+He hugs the box and then hugs Tom and Sam.
+
+"We are sorry, Ben," Tom says. "We did not know they were your toys. We took them because we liked them. But we saw your sign and we wanted to give them back to you."
+
+"We are sorry, Ben," Sam says. "We know they are important to you. We know your dad gave them to you. We hope he comes back soon and you can play with him."
+
+Ben smiles. He invites Tom and Sam to come inside. He shows them his room and his other toys. He asks them if they want to play with him.
+
+Tom and Sam say yes. They become friends with Ben. They play with the toys and have fun. They learn to share and to be honest. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben went to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and birds. Lily liked the birds best, because they had bright colors and made funny sounds. Ben liked the monkeys best, because they jumped and played and made faces.
+
+They came to a big cage with a sign that said "gorilla". Lily and Ben looked inside and saw a huge, black, hairy animal. It had big teeth and hands and feet. It was sitting on a rock and eating a banana.
+
+"Wow, look at that gorilla!" Ben said. "It is so big and strong! I want to be like it when I grow up!"
+
+Lily felt scared. She did not like the gorilla. It reminded her of a monster in a book that Mom read to her. The monster chased a boy and a girl and wanted to eat them. Lily hid behind Mom and held her hand.
+
+"Mom, I don't like the gorilla," Lily said. "It is scary. Can we go see the birds again?"
+
+Mom smiled and hugged Lily. "The gorilla is not scary, Lily. It is just an animal, like the monkeys. It does not want to hurt you. It is just eating its lunch. Do you want to give it a wave and say hello?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not want to wave or say hello. She wanted to go away from the gorilla.
+
+"Okay, Lily. We can go see the birds again. But remember, the gorilla is not a monster. It is a friend of the zoo. Maybe next time you will like it more," Mom said.
+
+Lily nodded. She was happy to go see the birds again. She hoped the gorilla would not remind her of the monster anymore. She hoped the gorilla would find a friend too.
+Lila and Ben are playing in the park. They like to slide on the big slide. It is fun and fast. They take turns to go down the slide.
+
+"Look, Lila, I can slide with no hands!" Ben says. He slides down and lands on his feet.
+
+"Wow, Ben, you are brave!" Lila says. She slides down and gives him a high five.
+
+They are thirsty and hot. They see a water fountain near the slide. They run to the fountain and drink some water. The water is cool and fresh.
+
+"Ah, that feels good!" Lila says.
+
+"Me too!" Ben says.
+
+They see a man with a cart. He has bottles of juice and snacks. He rings a bell and smiles.
+
+"Hello, kids, do you want some juice?" he asks.
+
+"Yes, please!" Lila and Ben say.
+
+They go to the cart and choose their favorite juice. Lila picks orange and Ben picks apple. The man gives them the bottles and a straw.
+
+"Here you go, enjoy!" he says.
+
+"Thank you, mister!" Lila and Ben say.
+
+They open the bottles and sip the juice. The juice is cool and sweet. They sit on a bench and share some snacks.
+
+"This is a good day!" Lila says.
+
+"I agree!" Ben says.
+
+They finish their juice and snacks. They throw the bottles and wrappers in the trash can. They wave to the man and thank him again.
+
+"Bye, kids, have fun!" he says.
+
+Lila and Ben run back to the slide. They slide some more and laugh. They are happy and full.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the dark. They had a flashlight and they liked to make shadows on the wall. They pretended they were animals and monsters and made funny noises.
+
+"Look, I'm a frog!" Ben said, and he jumped high in the air. He made his shadow look like a frog with big legs and eyes.
+
+"Ribbit, ribbit!" Lily said, and she laughed. She jumped too, and made her shadow look like a bird with wings and a beak.
+
+"Tweet, tweet!" Ben said, and he laughed too. They had so much fun jumping and making shadows.
+
+But then, they heard a knock on the door. It was Mom. She opened the door and turned on the light.
+
+"Ben, Lily, what are you doing?" she asked. She looked at the flashlight and the shadows on the wall.
+
+"We're playing, Mom!" Ben said. He smiled and held the flashlight.
+
+"We're animals and monsters, Mom!" Lily said. She smiled too and pointed at the wall.
+
+Mom smiled too, but she shook her head. "It's time for bed, kids. You can play tomorrow, but now you need to sleep."
+
+"Okay, Mom," Ben said. He was a polite boy and he listened to Mom. He turned off the flashlight and gave it to Mom.
+
+"Okay, Mom," Lily said. She was a polite girl and she listened to Mom too. She followed Ben to their beds.
+
+Mom tucked them in and kissed them good night. "Sleep well, my little animals and monsters," she said. "I love you."
+
+"We love you too, Mom," Ben and Lily said. They closed their eyes and dreamed of jumping and making shadows.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a big wheel in the park. It has many seats and goes round and round very fast.
+
+"Can we go on the big wheel, mom?" Sara asks.
+
+"Please, please, please!" Ben says.
+
+Mom smiles and says, "OK, but only if you hold on tight and listen to the man who runs the big wheel. He will tell you when to get on and off."
+
+Sara and Ben are very happy. They run to the big wheel and wait for their turn. The man who runs the big wheel gives them tickets and helps them get on a seat. He tells them to buckle up and enjoy the ride.
+
+The big wheel starts to move. Sara and Ben feel the wind in their hair and see the park from high up. They see the trees, the flowers, the swings, the slides, and the people. They wave to their mom and dad, who wave back. They laugh and scream with joy.
+
+The big wheel goes faster and faster. Sara and Ben feel dizzy. They close their eyes and hold on to each other. They wish the big wheel would stop.
+
+The big wheel slows down and stops. The man who runs the big wheel tells them to unbuckle and get off. He gives them a sticker that says, "I rode the big wheel!"
+
+Sara and Ben get off the big wheel and run to their mom and dad. They hug them and show them their stickers.
+
+"Did you enjoy the big wheel?" mom asks.
+
+"It was fun, but it made me dizzy," Sara says.
+
+"Me too," Ben says.
+
+Mom says, "I have some news for you. We are going to have ice cream for dessert tonight. How does that sound?"
+
+Sara and Ben smile and say, "Yay! We love ice cream!"
+
+They forget about their dizziness and think about their favorite flavors. They walk home with their mom and dad, holding hands and talking about their adventure on the big wheel.
+Lily and Max liked to play in the sand. They had a big bucket and many colorful toys. They made castles and bridges and tunnels. They had fun.
+
+One day, they saw a new boy in the park. He had a small bucket and no toys. He looked sad. Lily and Max wanted to be nice. They said hello to him.
+
+"Hello, what is your name?" Lily asked.
+
+"My name is Sam. I am new here. I have no friends," he said.
+
+"Do you want to play with us?" Max asked.
+
+"Yes, please. Can I use your bucket?" Sam asked.
+
+"Sure, you can. We have many toys. You can use them too," Lily said.
+
+They gave Sam their bucket and some toys. They showed him how to make castles and bridges and tunnels. They spent a long time playing together. They became friends.
+
+The next day, Lily and Max came to the park again. They looked for Sam. They saw him sitting on a bench. He had a big smile. He had a big bucket and many colorful toys. He had a surprise for them.
+
+"Hello, Lily and Max. I am happy to see you. Look what I have. My mom bought me a new bucket and toys. They are for us to share. Thank you for being nice to me yesterday. You are my friends," he said.
+
+Lily and Max were happy too. They hugged Sam. They played with his new bucket and toys. They made bigger and better castles and bridges and tunnels. They had more fun.
+Lily liked to play with her fake telephone. She pretended to call her friends and talk about fun things. She also liked to grow flowers in her garden. She watered them every day and watched them get bigger and prettier.
+
+One day, Lily heard a real telephone ring in the house. She ran to answer it, but her mom got there first. "Hello?" her mom said. Lily waited to hear who it was.
+
+"It's Grandma!" her mom said, smiling. "She wants to talk to you, Lily. She has a surprise for you."
+
+Lily took the telephone and said hello to Grandma. Grandma sounded happy. "Hi, Lily. I miss you very much. Guess what? I have a present for you. Do you want to know what it is?"
+
+Lily nodded, even though Grandma couldn't see her. "Yes, please. What is it?"
+
+Grandma laughed. "It's a real telephone, just for you. It's pink and sparkly, and you can call me anytime you want. I'm sending it to you in the mail. It should arrive soon. Won't that be fun?"
+
+Lily gasped. She couldn't believe it. A real telephone, like her mom's, but pink and sparkly. She could call Grandma and her friends whenever she wanted. She was so happy. She thanked Grandma and said goodbye.
+
+She ran to her mom and hugged her. "Mom, Grandma is sending me a real telephone. A pink and sparkly one. I can't wait to get it. I love Grandma so much."
+
+Mom hugged her back. "I love Grandma too. And I love you, Lily. You're such a good girl. Why don't we go to the garden and see how your flowers are growing?"
+
+Lily smiled and nodded. She followed her mom to the garden. She looked at her flowers and thought of her new telephone. She felt like the luckiest girl in the world.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big automobile parked in front of their house. It was shiny and red, and had four doors and four wheels.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Anna said. "It's so pretty!"
+
+"Let's go see it!" Ben said. "Maybe we can climb inside and pretend to drive!"
+
+They ran to the automobile and tried to open the doors, but they were locked. They looked around and saw no one. They wondered who owned the automobile and why it was there.
+
+"Maybe we can climb on top of it!" Anna said. "Then we can see everything!"
+
+"Good idea!" Ben said. "But be careful, it's very high!"
+
+They found a small ladder leaning against the fence and dragged it to the automobile. They put it against the side and climbed up, one by one. They reached the roof and sat down, feeling proud and happy.
+
+"Look, Anna, we can see the park and the trees and the birds!" Ben said.
+
+"Yes, and look, we can see our house and our mom and our dog!" Anna said.
+
+They waved and smiled, enjoying the view. They did not notice the man who came out of the house next door and walked to the automobile. He had a key in his hand and a frown on his face.
+
+"Hey, you kids, what are you doing on my automobile?" he shouted. "Get down from there right now!"
+
+Anna and Ben were scared and surprised. They did not know the man or that the automobile was his. They tried to climb down, but the ladder was too far and they could not reach it.
+
+"Help, help!" they cried. "We're stuck!"
+
+The man was angry and confused. He did not know how the kids got up there or why they had his ladder. He unlocked the doors and opened one of them. He looked inside and saw something that made him smile.
+
+"Is this yours?" he asked, holding up a teddy bear.
+
+Anna and Ben looked and saw that it was their teddy bear. They had left it in the park the day before and had been looking for it ever since.
+
+"Yes, yes, that's ours!" they said. "Thank you, thank you!"
+
+The man softened and realized that the kids were not bad, just curious. He put the teddy bear on the seat and climbed up the ladder. He helped Anna and Ben down and gave them their teddy bear.
+
+"I'm sorry, mister, we didn't mean to bother you or your automobile," Anna said.
+
+"We just wanted to see it and play with it," Ben said.
+
+"It's okay, kids, I understand," the man said. "But next time, ask before you climb on someone else's automobile, okay?"
+
+"Okay, mister, we will," Anna and Ben said.
+
+They hugged their teddy bear and ran back to their house, where their mom and their dog were waiting for them. They told them what had happened and how the man was helpful and nice. They learned a lesson and made a new friend.
+Lily was a dog who liked to dig. She dug in the yard, in the park, and in the sand. One day, she dug a big hole and found a bone. It was a big bone, with meat and fat on it. Lily was very happy and wagged her tail.
+
+She wanted to show her bone to her friend Max, who was also a dog. She ran to his house and barked at the door. But no one answered. She barked louder and louder, but still no one answered. She was sad and confused. Where was Max?
+
+She decided to go to the park and look for him. She carried her bone in her mouth and ran fast. But the wind was cold and made her shiver. She wished she had a warm coat like Max. She got to the park and saw many dogs playing and running. But she did not see Max.
+
+She saw a bench where a lady was sitting. She had a bag with bread and seeds. She was feeding the birds. Lily thought maybe the lady knew where Max was. She went to the bench and put her bone down. She looked at the lady and wagged her tail. She hoped the lady would answer her.
+
+The lady smiled and petted Lily. She said, "Hello, you are a cute dog. What is your name?" Lily barked and licked the lady's hand. She said, "My name is Lily. Do you know where Max is? He is my friend. He is a dog too. He has a warm coat and lives in that house." She pointed with her nose to Max's house.
+
+The lady nodded and said, "Yes, I know Max. He is a good dog. But he is not home today. He went to the vet with his owner. He had a sore paw and needed some medicine. He will be back soon. Don't worry, he is fine."
+
+Lily was glad to hear that Max was fine. She thanked the lady and picked up her bone. She said, "I will wait for him here. I have a bone for him. It is a big bone, with meat and fat on it. We can share it and play together." She wagged her tail and lay down on the grass.
+
+The lady smiled and said, "That is very nice of you, Lily. You are a good friend. I'm sure Max will be happy to see you and your bone. Enjoy your bone and have fun." She gave Lily another pat and went back to feeding the birds.
+
+Lily was happy and waited for Max. She chewed on her bone and watched the birds. She felt warm and cozy. She knew Max would answer her soon.
+Sam and Tom were brothers who liked to play outside. One day, they saw their dad using the grill to cook some meat. They smelled the yummy food and wanted to try it.
+
+"Dad, can we have some meat?" Sam asked.
+
+"Not yet, boys. It's not ready. You have to wait until it's cooked," Dad said.
+
+But Tom was very hungry and impatient. He did not want to wait. He saw a big piece of meat on the grill and decided to take it.
+
+"Tom, don't touch that! It's very hot!" Dad warned.
+
+But Tom did not listen. He reached for the meat and grabbed it with his hand. He screamed in pain and dropped the meat on the ground. He burned his hand and it hurt a lot.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom cried.
+
+Dad ran to Tom and wrapped his hand in a wet cloth. He took him inside the house to put some cream on it.
+
+Sam followed them and looked at Tom. He felt sorry for his brother, but he also felt angry. Tom was very naughty and greedy. He did not obey Dad and he wasted the meat.
+
+"Tom, you were very bad. You should be ashamed of yourself," Sam said.
+
+Tom looked at Sam and felt ashamed. He knew he did something wrong. He wished he had listened to Dad and waited for the meat. He said sorry to Dad and Sam and hoped his hand would get better soon. He learned his lesson and never touched the grill again.
+Lila and Tom are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But they do not like to wear socks. They say socks are too tight and itchy. They feel bad when they have to wear socks.
+
+One day, Mom has a surprise for them. She gives them each a pair of socks. But these socks are not like the other socks. These socks are original. They have different colors and patterns. They have stars, stripes, dots, and hearts. They are soft and cozy.

+Mia and Ben love balloons. They have many balloons of different colors. They like to blow them up and play with them. Sometimes they make funny shapes with the balloons, like animals or hats.
+
+One day, they find a big balloon in the park. It is red and shiny. They want to take it home and play with it. But the balloon is too big to fit in their bag. They try to make it smaller, but it is difficult. They pull and twist and squeeze the balloon, but it does not change.
+
+"Let me try," Ben says. He takes the balloon and tries to push it into the bag. But the balloon pops with a loud bang. Mia and Ben are scared and sad. They liked the big balloon. They wanted to play with it.

+
+"Look at my tower, Lily!" Tom said. "It is very large and strong. It can touch the sky!"
+
+Lily looked at Tom's tower. She wanted to make a larger tower than Tom. She took some of his blocks and added them to her tower. She did not ask Tom if she could take his blocks.
+
+"Hey, Lily, those are my blocks!" Tom said. "Give them back to me!"
+
+"No, they are mine now!" Lily said. "My tower is larger than yours!"
+
+Tom was angry. He pushed Lily's tower with his hand. The blocks fell down and broke. Some of the blocks hit Lily and Tom. They hurt.
+
+Lily and Tom started to cry. They were sad and sore. Their towers were gone.
+
+Mom heard their cries. She came to see what was wrong. She saw the broken blocks and the crying children.
+
+"What happened here?" Mom asked. "Why did you break the blocks?"
+
+Lily and Tom told Mom what they did. They said they were sorry. Mom was not happy.
+
+"You should not take things that are not yours, Lily," Mom said. "And you should not break things that are not yours, Tom. You should share and play nicely with the blocks."
+
+Mom gave them a hug. She said she loved them. She said they could play with the blocks again, but only if they were kind and careful.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They said they loved Mom. They said they would share and play nicely with the blocks.

+They picked up the broken blocks and put them in a box. They got some new blocks and started to build again. They helped each other and made a large tower together. They were happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run, jump and slide on the grass and the swings. They saw a big hole in the ground. It was a pit. Lily wanted to look inside the pit. She thought there might be something fun or shiny there.
+
+"Tom, come with me. Let's see what is in the pit," Lily said.
+
+But Tom did not want to go. He was scared of the pit. He thought there might be something bad or scary there.
+
+"No, Lily. The pit is too deep and dark. We should stay away from it," Tom said.
+
+Lily did not listen to Tom. She ignored him. She ran to the pit and looked inside. She saw nothing but dirt and rocks. She was disappointed. She wanted to find something else.
+
+"Tom, there is nothing in the pit. It is boring. Let's go and play somewhere else," Lily said.
+
+But Tom did not hear Lily. He was busy playing with a stick. He pretended it was a sword. He felt mighty. He swung the stick and made noises.
+
+"Zap! Pow! I am a hero. I can fight any monster," Tom said.
+
+Lily ran back to Tom. She wanted to play with him. She tried to take the stick from him.
+
+"Tom, give me the stick. I want to be a hero too," Lily said.
+
+But Tom did not want to share. He ignored Lily. He pushed her away. He kept the stick for himself.
+
+"Go away, Lily. This is my stick. You can't have it," Tom said.
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She did not like Tom. She did not want to play with him anymore. She ran away from him. She looked for another friend. She saw a dog. The dog was friendly and wagged its tail. Lily smiled. She petted the dog and gave it a hug.
+
+"Hello, dog. You are nice. Do you want to play with me?" Lily said.
+
+The dog barked and licked Lily's face. It wanted to play with her. Lily was happy. She found a new friend. She forgot about Tom and the pit. She had fun with the dog.

+
+Tim and Ben do not want to clean their room. They want to play football now. They say, "Mum, can we play football first? We will clean our room after."
+
+Mum says, "No, you have to clean your room first. It is your job. You can play football when you finish. I will check your room in one hour."
+
+Tim and Ben go to their room. They are not happy. They do not like to clean. They have a plan. They put all their toys and clothes in a big bag. They hide the bag under the bed. They think mum will not see it. They say, "We are done. Let's go play football."

+
+Tim and Ben see mum. They see the big bag. They are scared. They say, "Mum, we are sorry. We did not clean our room. We will do it now."
+
+Mum says, "Too late. You have to learn your lesson. You cannot play football anymore. I have a new use for your ball."
+
+She opens the bag. She takes out the ball. She puts it in the bag. She ties the bag. She says, "This is your new football. It is heavy and lumpy. It is not fun. It is funny."
+
+She throws the bag to them. They catch it. They feel the weight. They hear the noise. They see the shape. They do not like it. They say, "Mum, this is not a football. This is a bag of toys and clothes. This is not fair. This is not funny."
+
+Mum says, "Yes, it is. It is funny to me. Maybe next time you will clean your room when I ask you. Now go and do it. And no more football until you do."

+Tom and his mom went to the market. The market was very big and had many things to see and buy. Tom liked the market because he could smell the bread, the cheese, and the flowers.
+
+"Mom, can I lift this?" Tom asked, pointing to a shiny red apple.
+
+"Sure, you can lift it, but be careful. It is not yours. We have to pay for it first," Mom said.

+"Mom, can we buy this apple?" Tom asked.
+
+"Yes, we can buy it. It is a good apple. It is from an ancient tree. The tree is very old and makes very sweet apples," Mom said.
+
+Mom took some money from her purse and gave it to the man who sold the apples. The man smiled and thanked them. He put the apple in a paper bag and gave it to Tom.
+
+"Here you go, little boy. Enjoy your apple. It is a special treat," the man said.
+
+Tom and his mom thanked the man and walked away. Tom held the paper bag with the apple inside. He was happy and excited. He could not wait to eat his apple from the ancient tree. He thought it would be the best apple ever.
+Lila and Ben were friends who liked to play together. They wanted to go to the festival in the park, where there were games, balloons, and music. But they had to ask their moms first.
+
+Lila's mom said yes, but she told Lila to wear her new dress and shoes. Lila did not like her new dress and shoes. They were too tight and itchy. She wanted to wear her old jeans and sneakers. They were comfortable and reliable. But she did not want to make her mom angry, so she put on her new dress and shoes.
+
+Ben's mom also said yes, but she told Ben to wear his new shirt and pants. Ben did not like his new shirt and pants. They were too loose and wrinkled. He wanted to wear his old t-shirt and shorts. They were cool and easy. But he did not want to make his mom sad, so he put on his new shirt and pants.
+
+Lila and Ben met at the park and went to the festival. They tried to have fun, but they were not happy. Their new clothes did not fit them well. They felt uncomfortable and unhappy. They could not run, jump, or dance. They could not enjoy the games, balloons, or music.
+
+They saw other kids wearing old clothes that fit them well. They looked comfortable and happy. They could run, jump, and dance. They could enjoy the games, balloons, and music.
+
+Lila and Ben realized that they made a mistake. They should have worn their old clothes that fit them well. They learned that it is better to be comfortable and reliable than to be tight and itchy or loose and wrinkled.
+
+They decided to go back home and change their clothes. They asked their moms to let them wear their old clothes. Their moms agreed, but they also explained that they wanted them to look nice for the festival. They said that they loved them no matter what they wore.
+
+Lila and Ben thanked their moms and put on their old clothes that fit them well. They felt comfortable and happy. They went back to the festival and had a lot of fun. They ran, jumped, and danced. They enjoyed the games, balloons, and music. They were glad that they learned their lesson.
+Anna likes to swim in the pool. She wears a pink swim suit and a hat. She has a big floaty that looks like a fish. She holds on to the floaty and kicks her legs.
+
+One day, Anna sees a frog in the pool. The frog is green and slimy. It hops on the water and makes a loud sound. Anna thinks the frog is funny. She wants to play with the frog.
+
+She lets go of the floaty and swims to the frog. She reaches out her hand and tries to touch the frog. But the frog is fast and snaps at her finger. Anna feels a pinch and cries out. She is scared and hurt.
+
+Mom hears Anna and runs to the pool. She picks up Anna and hugs her. She sees the frog and shooes it away. She says, "It's okay, Anna. The frog was just scared too. He didn't mean to snap at you. Let me see your finger."
+
+Mom looks at Anna's finger and sees a small mark. She kisses it and puts a band-aid on it. She says, "There, all better. You are very brave, Anna. But next time, don't try to touch the frog. He likes to be alone. Let's go inside and have a snack. You need to be clean and dry."
+Tim and Mia were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. Tim found a big spider and showed it to Mia.
+
+"Look, Mia, a spider!" Tim said. "It has eight legs and many eyes. Do you want to touch it?"
+
+Mia was scared of spiders. She shook her head and backed away.
+
+"No, Tim, no!" Mia said. "I don't like spiders. They are scary and hairy. Please put it away!"
+
+Tim laughed and chased Mia with the spider. He thought it was funny to make Mia scream.
+
+"Come on, Mia, don't be silly!" Tim said. "The spider is not scary. It is friendly and soft. Please let me show you!"
+
+Mia ran to the house, but Tim was faster. He caught up with her and put the spider on her head. Mia felt the spider crawl on her hair and screamed louder.
+
+"Tim, stop it, stop it!" Mia said. "Get it off me, get it off me!"
+
+But Tim did not listen. He wanted to see what the spider would do. He watched it move down Mia's face and into her mouth. Mia choked and coughed. She tried to spit out the spider, but it was too late. The spider bit her tongue and made her sick. Mia fell to the ground and did not move.
+
+Tim was scared. He did not think the spider would hurt Mia. He did not mean to make her sick. He dropped the spider and ran to get help. But it was too late. Mia was gone. Tim cried and wished he had listened to Mia. He wished he had not played with the spider. He wished he had said sorry.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the backyard. They had a big ball and a small hoop. They tried to throw the ball into the hoop, but it was hard. Sometimes the ball went too high, or too low, or too far.
+
+"Stop!" Lily said. "I want to try again."
+
+Ben gave her the ball and waited. Lily threw the ball with all her might, but it missed the hoop and hit the fence. The fence made a loud noise and shook. Lily and Ben looked at the fence and saw something move.
+
+"What is that?" Ben asked.
+
+They saw a big, ugly dog poke its head out of a hole in the fence. The dog had black fur and yellow eyes. It barked and growled at Lily and Ben. It looked angry and scary.
+
+"Run!" Lily said.
+
+Lily and Ben dropped the ball and ran to the house. They slammed the door behind them and hugged each other. They were safe inside, but they could still hear the dog barking and scratching at the fence.
+
+"Mom!" Lily called. "There is a big, ugly dog in the backyard!"
+
+Mom came to the door and looked out. She saw the dog and the hole in the fence. She frowned and picked up the phone.
+
+"I'm going to call the dog catcher," she said. "Don't go outside until he comes."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They were glad Mom was there. They hoped the dog catcher would come soon and take the big, ugly dog away. They did not want to play in the backyard anymore.
+Lily loves to play with her toy cars. She has many cars of different colors and sizes. She likes to make them zoom and beep on the floor. Sometimes she pretends they are racing or going on a trip.
+
+One day, Lily's mom has a surprise for her. She tells Lily to close her eyes and follow her outside. Lily is curious and excited. She wonders what the surprise is. She holds her mom's hand and walks to the driveway.
+
+When they get there, mom tells Lily to open her eyes. Lily gasps. She sees a big car with a bow on it. It is shiny and red. It is a new car for mom and dad. Mom says, "This is our new car, Lily. Do you like it?"
+
+Lily nods. She thinks the car is very pretty. She wants to touch it and look inside. Mom says, "You can, but be careful. It is very new and clean." Lily runs to the car and opens the door. She sees the seats and the buttons and the wheel. She smiles. She says, "Wow, mom, this car is amazing. Can I ride in it?"
+
+Mom laughs. She says, "Of course, Lily. You can ride in it with us. We are going to the park today. Do you want to go?" Lily claps. She says, "Yes, mom, I want to go. I love the park. And I love the new car. Thank you, mom. You are the best." Mom hugs Lily. She says, "You are welcome, Lily. You are the best, too. Now, let's go and have some fun." They get in the car and drive away. Lily is happy. She thinks this is the best day ever.
+Lily was playing with her doll in the garden. She liked to pretend that her doll was sick and she was a doctor. She had a small bag with some bandages, a spoon and a bottle of water. She said to her doll, "Don't worry, I will save you. You have a bad cough. You need some water and a bandage."
+
+She opened the bottle and poured some water on the spoon. She tried to give it to her doll, but she spilled some on the grass. She said, "Oops, sorry. Here, try again." She put the spoon in her doll's mouth and made a slurping sound. She said, "Good, you drank some water. Now you need a bandage."
+
+She took a bandage from her bag and wrapped it around her doll's neck. She said, "There, now you have a bandage. You will feel better soon. I am a good doctor."
+
+She smiled and hugged her doll. She was happy that she could help her doll. She did not see the big dog that was running towards her. The dog was bad. He liked to chase and bite things. He saw Lily and her doll and he barked loudly. He wanted to play with them, but he did not know how to play nicely.
+
+Lily heard the dog and she was scared. She screamed, "Help, help! A bad dog!" She held her doll tightly and tried to run away. But the dog was faster. He jumped on her and knocked her down. He grabbed her doll with his teeth and shook it. He ripped the bandage and the water bottle. He made a mess.
+
+Lily cried and shouted, "No, no! Stop! Give me back my doll! You are a bad dog!" She was hurt and sad. She wanted her doll back. She wanted her mom.
+
+Her mom heard her and came running. She saw the dog and she was angry. She yelled, "Hey, you! Leave my daughter alone! Go away!" She picked up a stick and threw it at the dog. The dog was scared. He dropped the doll and ran away. He did not want to play anymore.
+
+Lily's mom hugged her and said, "Are you okay, sweetie? I'm sorry, that was a bad dog. He should not have done that. He hurt you and your doll." She looked at Lily's doll and said, "Oh, no. Your doll is broken. She lost her bandage and her water bottle. She needs a new doctor."
+
+Lily sniffed and said, "I was her doctor. I tried to save her. But the bad dog took her away. He was mean. He made her sick again."
+
+Lily's mom said, "I know, honey. You were a good doctor. You did your best. But sometimes things happen that we can't control. Sometimes we need help from other doctors. How about we take your doll to the toy store and see if they can fix her? Maybe they have a special doctor for dolls."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Okay, mom. Maybe they can save her. Maybe they can make her better. Can we go now?"
+
+Lily's mom said, "Yes, we can go now. Come on, let's go. I love you, Lily. And I love your doll, too."
+
+She took Lily's hand and her doll and they walked to the car. They drove to the toy store and hoped that they could find a doctor for dolls. They hoped that they could save her doll.
+Tom liked to print pictures of animals. He had a big book with many animals and a printer that made copies. He printed lions, tigers, bears, and more. He put them on his wall and pretended they were his friends.
+
+One day, a loud noise came from outside. Tom looked out the window and saw a big, scary, spinning thing. It was a tornado. It was coming closer and closer to his house. Tom was very afraid. He ran to his mom and dad and hugged them.
+
+The tornado was very strong. It broke trees, cars, and houses. It also broke Tom's printer and his wall. All his animal pictures flew away in the wind. Tom was very sad. He had no more friends.
+
+After the tornado was gone, Tom and his family went outside. They saw many people who needed help. They also saw some animals who were lost or hurt. Tom wanted to help them. He gave them water, food, and hugs. He made new friends.
+
+Tom learned that he was not lonely. He had his family and his neighbors. He also had the real animals who needed him. He still liked to print pictures, but he also liked to share them with others. He was happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play on the beach. They find many shells on the sand. Some shells are big, some shells are small. Some shells are shiny, some shells are dull.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a shell with a star on it!" Ben says. He shows Lily his shell. It is yellow and has a star shape on it.
+
+"Wow, Ben, that is a pretty shell!" Lily says. She likes Ben's shell. She has a shell with stripes on it. It is pink and white and has stripes on it.
+
+"Can I see your shell, Lily?" Ben asks. He wants to see Lily's shell. He thinks it is playful.
+
+"Sure, Ben, here you go!" Lily says. She gives Ben her shell. He gives Lily his shell. They swap shells. They are happy.
+
+But then, a big bird comes. It is hungry. It sees the shells in Lily and Ben's hands. It thinks they are food. It flies down and tries to eat them.
+
+"Hey, stop, bird, those are our shells!" Lily and Ben shout. They are scared and angry. They pull their shells away from the bird. The bird is angry too. It squawks and flaps its wings.
+
+"Go away, bird, go find your own food!" Lily and Ben say. They wave their shells at the bird. The bird flies away. It looks for something else to eat.

+Lily and Ben hug each other. They are glad they are safe. They still have their shells. They are still friends. They go back to playing on the beach. They have fun.

+
+Jen looks at Tom's pen. She sees that it is empty. She has an idea.

+
+She gives Tom a box of pens. Tom sees many colors. He is happy.
+

+
+"Ben, don't give up! You can do it!" Mia cheered for him. She was his best friend and always helped him.
+
+The game was almost over and Mia's team was winning. Ben saw a chance to score a goal and ran towards the ball. He kicked it hard, but it flew over the net and hit a big trophy on a table. The trophy fell down and broke into pieces.
+
+"Oh no! I'm so sorry!" Ben cried. He was afraid that everyone would be angry at him.
+
+Mia ran to him and gave him a hug. "It's okay, Ben. It was an accident. You tried your best. I'm proud of you."
+
+"Really? You're not mad at me?" Ben asked.
+
+"Of course not. You're my friend. And look, the trophy was old and dusty. Maybe we can make a new one together. Do you want to help me?" Mia said.
+

+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their toy cars. They liked to make noises and pretend they were racing. Lily had a red car and Ben had a blue car. They were having fun.

+But then, a big dog came running towards them. It was black and brown and had sharp teeth. It barked loudly and made them scared. It wanted to bite their cars and their legs.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Lily shouted. "You are bad and mean!"
+
+"Help, help!" Ben cried. "The dog is too powerful!"
+
+They tried to run away, but the dog was faster. It caught Ben's car and bit it hard. It broke the car and made smoke come out. Ben was very sad and angry.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" a voice said. It was a man with a leash. He ran to the dog and pulled it away. He was the dog's owner. He looked at Lily and Ben and said sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids. My dog is not bad, he is just playful. He likes to bite things, but he doesn't know he can hurt them. I will buy you a new car, okay?"
+
+Lily and Ben were still scared, but they nodded. They thanked the man and hugged each other. They decided to play somewhere else, away from the dog. They hoped the dog would learn not to bite.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to act like animals. Lily was a cat and Tom was a dog. They ran and jumped and made noises.
+
+"Meow, meow, I am a black cat. I can see in the dark," Lily said.
+
+"Woof, woof, I am a brown dog. I can smell everything," Tom said.
+
+They saw a big tree with a hole. They wanted to see what was inside. They went near the hole and looked.
+
+"Wow, there is something shiny in there. Maybe it is a treasure," Lily said.
+
+"Let's get it. Maybe it is a bone," Tom said.
+
+They put their heads in the hole and tried to reach the shiny thing. But they did not know that the hole was the home of a big owl. The owl was sleeping and did not like to be disturbed.
+
+The owl woke up and saw the cat and the dog in his hole. He was angry and scared. He opened his eyes and his beak and made a loud noise.
+
+"Hoo, hoo, get out of my home. You are not welcome here," the owl said.
+
+Lily and Tom were surprised and afraid. They saw the owl's big eyes and sharp beak. They pulled their heads out of the hole and ran away.
+
+"Run, run, we have to be quick. The owl is mad at us," Lily said.
+
+"Yes, yes, let's go. The owl is big and scary," Tom said.
+
+They ran back to their mom and dad. They told them what happened. They learned not to act like animals in the wrong places. They said sorry to the owl and thanked him for the shiny thing. It was a coin. They gave it to their mom and dad. They were happy and safe. The end.

+Tom and Sue were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. But Tom was not careful. He tripped on a zigzag crack on the ground and fell down. He hurt his knee and it was bleeding.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom cried. "It hurts so much!"
+
+Sue ran to him and hugged him. She saw his knee and said, "Don't cry, Tom. I will help you. We need to heal your knee."
+
+She took out a tissue from her pocket and wiped the blood. Then she took out a band-aid from her backpack and put it on his knee.
+
+"There, all better!" Sue said. "The band-aid will make your knee heal faster. And it has a picture of a dinosaur on it. Do you like it?"
+
+Tom looked at his knee and smiled. He liked dinosaurs. He said, "Thank you, Sue. You are a good friend. The band-aid is cool. And it doesn't hurt anymore."
+
+Sue smiled back. She said, "You're welcome, Tom. I'm glad you feel better. Do you want to play some more?"
+
+Tom nodded. He said, "Yes, let's play. But be careful of the zigzag crack. We don't want to fall again."
+
+They held hands and ran to the slide. They had fun and forgot about the smelly trash can near the bench. They were happy.
+Lily and Max were playing in the living room. They had many toys and books to have fun with. But they also liked to jump on the couch and pretend it was a boat or a castle.
+
+"Look, Lily, I'm the king of the couch!" Max said, standing on the cushions. "You are my queen and we rule the land!"
+
+Lily giggled and climbed up next to him. "Yes, Max, we are the best king and queen ever! But be careful, don't fall off the couch!"
+
+Max nodded, but he was too excited to listen. He jumped higher and higher, waving his arms. He did not see the banana peel that was on the floor. He stepped on it and slipped. He fell off the couch and landed on his back.
+
+"Ouch!" Max cried, rubbing his head. "That hurt!"
+
+Lily ran to him and hugged him. "Are you okay, Max? I'm sorry, I left the banana peel there. I ate it before and it was sour. I did not like it."
+
+Max smiled and hugged her back. "It's okay, Lily. I'm fine. But that was a silly slip. And I don't like sour bananas either. Let's throw it away and play something else."
+
+They got up and threw the banana peel in the trash. Then they picked up their toys and books and played together. They did not jump on the couch anymore, but they still had a lot of fun. They were the best brother and sister ever.
+Ben likes to play in the park with his ball. He throws the ball and runs after it. He sees many things in the park: trees, flowers, birds, dogs. He likes to look at them and say their names.
+
+One day, he sees something new in the park. It is round and shiny and has holes in it. He does not know what it is. He picks it up and looks at it. It is an ashtray, but he does not know that. He thinks it is interesting.
+
+He sees a man sitting on a bench. The man is smoking a cigarette. He has another ashtray next to him. He sees Ben holding the ashtray. He smiles and says hello.
+
+Ben walks to the man and says hello too. He shows him the ashtray and asks what it is. The man tells him it is an ashtray. He says people use it to put their cigarettes in. He says cigarettes are bad and make people sick. He says he is trying to quit.
+
+Ben does not understand what cigarettes are or what quit means. He thinks the man is nice and funny. He gives him the ashtray and says thank you. The man says thank you too and gives him a candy. Ben likes candy.
+
+Ben and the man talk for a while. They tell each other their names and where they live. They laugh and smile. They become friends. They meet in the park.
+Lily loved to sign with her hands. She learned sign from her mom, who was deaf. Lily could hear, but she liked to sign too. It was fun and special.
+
+One day, Lily saw a birdcage in the park. Inside the birdcage, there was a blue bird. The bird looked sad and scared. Lily felt sorry for the bird. She wanted to help.
+
+She went to the birdcage and signed hello to the bird. The bird looked at her with big eyes. Lily signed, "Are you OK? Do you want to come out?" The bird nodded and chirped.
+
+Lily looked around. She did not see anyone who owned the birdcage. She thought it was not nice to keep a bird in a cage. She wanted to set the bird free.
+
+She tried to open the door of the birdcage, but it was hard. It was locked with a metal chain. Lily pulled and pushed, but she could not break the chain. She felt sad and angry.
+
+She heard a voice behind her. It was a man. He said, "Hey, what are you doing with my bird?" He sounded mean and loud.
+
+Lily turned around and saw the man. He was big and scary. He had a hat and a coat. He looked like a bad man.
+
+Lily was afraid. She ran away from the man. She did not want him to hurt her or the bird. She wished she could save the bird.
+
+She ran to her mom, who was sitting on a bench. She hugged her mom and told her what happened. She signed, "Mom, there is a bird in a cage. The bird is sad. The man is bad. He locked the bird. I want to help the bird. Can we help the bird?"
+
+Her mom listened and nodded. She signed, "I understand. You are very kind and brave. The bird is lucky to have you as a friend. Let's go and see what we can do. Maybe we can find someone who can help us."
+
+Lily smiled and held her mom's hand. They walked back to the birdcage. They hoped they could find a way to free the bird. Lily signed to the bird, "Don't worry. We are here. We will help you." The bird smiled and thanked her.
+Tom and Mia love to play in the snow. They make a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They also make snowballs and throw them at each other. They laugh and have fun.
+
+But after a while, they feel cold and wet. They want to go inside and get warm. They see a big hill with snow on it. They have an idea. They find a big piece of cardboard and put it on the snow. They sit on the cardboard and hold on tight.
+
+"Ready, set, go!" they shout. They slide down the hill very fast. They feel the wind in their faces and the snow under them. They slide and slide until they reach the bottom. They are happy and excited.
+
+They get up and run to the house. They knock on the door. Mom opens it and smiles. She sees their red cheeks and their snowy clothes. She hugs them and says, "You look like you had a lot of fun. Come in, I have something for you."
+
+She takes them to the kitchen. She pours some cocoa into two mugs. She adds some marshmallows and stirs them. She gives them the mugs and says, "Be careful, it's hot. Drink slowly and enjoy."
+
+Tom and Mia sit on the couch and sip their cocoa. They feel the warmth in their mouths and their bellies. They smile and say, "Thank you, Mom. This is the best cocoa ever."
+
+They finish their cocoa and cuddle with Mom. They tell her about their snowman and their snowballs and their slide. Mom listens and nods. She says, "I'm glad you had fun. You are very brave and creative. I love you very much."
+
+Tom and Mia say, "We love you too, Mom." They close their eyes and feel cozy and happy. They fall asleep in Mom's arms.
+Anna and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Anna had a doll that she loved very much. She called her doll Lily and gave her hugs and kisses. Ben had a truck that he liked to zoom around the floor. He called his truck Max and made it go fast and loud.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben found a roll of tape in a drawer. They wondered what they could do with it. Anna had an idea. She said to Ben, "Let's make Lily and Max friends. We can tape them together and they can talk to each other." Ben thought that was a good idea. He said, "OK, let's do it. Maybe they will have fun too."
+
+They took the tape and wrapped it around Lily and Max. They made them stick together and look like one toy. They were very proud of their work. They said to Lily and Max, "Now you are friends. You can share and play and be happy." They moved them around and made them say nice things to each other.
+
+But then, their mom came into the living room. She saw what they had done and was not happy. She said, "What are you doing? Why did you tape your toys together? That's not normal. You might ruin them. Give me the tape and let me take it off." She took the tape and tried to pull it off. But it was very sticky and hard to remove. She made Lily and Max look messy and torn.
+
+Anna and Ben were sad and angry. They said to their mom, "No, don't do that. You are hurting them. They are friends. We made them friends. We believe they can talk to each other. They are normal to us. Please leave them alone." They tried to get their toys back and hugged them tight.
+
+Their mom was surprised and sorry. She said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt them. I didn't know you believed they could talk to each other. I thought you were just playing. But I see you really care about them. They are normal to you. And that's OK. You can keep them as friends. But please don't use tape anymore. It's not good for your toys. How about we use some string or ribbon instead? That way, you can still make them friends, but you can also take them apart if you want to. Would you like that?"
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and smiled. They said, "Yes, we would like that. Thank you, mom. We love you. And we love Lily and Max. They are our best friends." They gave their mom a hug and a kiss. Then they took some string and ribbon and made Lily and Max friends again. They played with them happily and peacefully. They believed they could talk to each other. And they were normal to them.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with blocks and cars. One day, they go to the park with their moms. There are many other kids in the park. Some are nice, some are rude.
+
+Anna and Ben see a big slide. They want to go on the slide. They wait in line with the other kids. But one rude kid pushes them. He says, "Move! I want to go first!" He makes Anna and Ben fall down.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad and angry. They don't like the rude kid. They get up and go to the side of the slide. They whisper to each other.
+
+"Let's make a plan," Anna whispers. "We can teach the rude kid a lesson."
+
+"What can we do?" Ben whispers.
+
+"We can wait until he goes on the slide. Then we can go behind him and tickle his feet. He will be scared and scream. He will learn to be nice," Anna whispers.
+
+Ben likes the plan. He nods and smiles. They wait for the rude kid to go on the slide. When he does, they run behind him and tickle his feet. The rude kid is scared and screams. He slides down fast and falls on the ground.
+
+Anna and Ben laugh. They high-five each other. The rude kid is mad. He runs away. He doesn't bother them anymore.
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They go on the slide again and again. They have fun. They are good friends.

+
+One day, a big dog comes to the park. He is lively and loud. He runs and barks and jumps. He sees the toys and wants to play with them. He takes the ball in his mouth and runs away. He knocks over the doll and the car and the train.
+
+Lila and Ben are scared and sad. They want their toys back. They cry and hug each other. The dog hears them and comes back. He drops the ball and wags his tail. He wants to say sorry.
+
+Lila and Ben blink. They are surprised. They see the dog is not mean, he is just playful. They wipe their tears and smile. They pet the dog and say, "It's OK. We forgive you. Do you want to play with us?"

+Ben and Mia are twins. They like to play with their toys. They have many toys, but they have only one automobile. The automobile is red and smooth. It can go fast and make noise.
+
+One day, Ben and Mia want to play with the automobile at the same time. Ben grabs the automobile and runs away. Mia runs after him and cries. "Give me the automobile! It is my turn!" she says. Ben laughs and teases her. "No, it is mine! You are too slow!" he says.
+
+Mia is angry and sad. She tries to catch Ben, but he is too fast. She falls down and hurts her knee. She screams and cries louder. Ben hears her and stops. He sees her knee is bleeding.

+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to help their mom and dad with chores. One day, mom asked them to polish the old lamp that was in the attic. She said it was a special lamp that belonged to their great-grandma.
+
+Ben and Lily climbed the stairs to the attic and found the lamp on a shelf. It was dusty and dull. They took a cloth and started to rub the lamp to make it shiny. As they rubbed, they saw a flash of light and heard a voice.
+
+"Hello, hello, I am the genie of the lamp. You have freed me from my prison. I will grant you three wishes. What do you want?"
+
+Ben and Lily were surprised and scared. They had never seen a genie before. They thought it was a trick or a dream.
+
+"Who are you?" Ben asked.
+
+"I told you, I am the genie of the lamp. I can do magic. I can give you anything you want. Just say the words," the genie said.
+
+Ben and Lily looked at each other. They did not know what to wish for. They did not want to be greedy or silly. They wanted to be good and kind.
+
+"Can we wish for something for mom and dad?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. They are your parents. They love you. What do they want?" the genie asked.
+
+Ben and Lily thought hard. They remembered that mom and dad always worked hard to provide for them. They remembered that mom and dad always wanted to travel and see the world. They remembered that mom and dad always smiled and hugged them.
+
+"We wish for mom and dad to have a vacation. We wish for them to go to a nice place and have fun. We wish for them to be happy," Ben and Lily said together.
+
+The genie smiled. He was touched by their wish. He thought they were charming and sweet.
+
+"Your wish is my command. I will make it happen. But remember, you still have two more wishes. Use them wisely. I will be here when you need me," the genie said.
+
+He snapped his fingers and disappeared. The lamp glowed softly.
+
+Ben and Lily ran downstairs to tell mom and dad about the genie and their wish. They hoped they would believe them. They hoped they would be proud of them. They hoped they would have a wonderful vacation.
+Lila and Ben were playing in their room. They had many toys, but they liked to make their own games. They found a long rope and tied it to the ceiling. They wanted to swing like monkeys.
+
+"Me first!" Lila said. She grabbed the rope and jumped. She swung back and forth, laughing. "This is fun!"
+
+"Me too!" Ben said. He waited for his turn. He was smaller than Lila, but he was brave. He took the rope and tried to swing. But he was too weak. He could not hold on. He fell to the floor.
+
+"Ouch!" Ben cried. He hurt his knee. He started to cry.
+
+Lila heard him and stopped swinging. She ran to him and hugged him. "Are you okay, Ben?" she asked.
+
+Ben nodded. He wiped his tears. He saw a red mark on his knee. "It hurts," he said.
+
+Lila kissed his knee. "It will be better soon," she said. "Do you want a band-aid?"
+
+Ben smiled. He liked band-aids. They made him feel better. "Yes, please," he said.
+
+Lila helped him up. They walked to the bathroom. They found a band-aid with a star on it. Lila put it on Ben's knee. "There," she said. "Now you have a star knee."
+
+Ben looked at his knee. He liked his star knee. He hugged Lila. "Thank you, Lila," he said.
+
+They heard a loud noise. It was the phone. It was ringing. They ran to the living room. They wanted to answer it. Maybe it was their mom. She always called them when she was at work.
+
+They reached the phone. They picked it up. They said hello. They heard their mom's voice. She was happy to hear them. She asked them how they were.
+
+"We are good, mom," Lila said. "We were playing in our room. We made a swing with a rope. It was fun."
+
+"We were monkeys, mom," Ben said. "But I fell and hurt my knee. Lila gave me a band-aid. Now I have a star knee."
+
+Their mom laughed. She said they were very creative and very sweet. She said she loved them very much. She said she would be home soon.
+
+"We love you too, mom," Lila and Ben said. "We can't wait to see you."
+
+They said goodbye. They hung up the phone. They looked at each other. They smiled. They were happy. They had each other. They had their mom. They had their swing. They had their star knee. They had a good day.
+Lily was a curious girl who liked to explore new things. One day, she saw a big truck with many colors and pictures on it. It was parked on the street near her house. She wanted to see what was inside the truck.
+
+She asked her mom, "Mom, can I go to the truck?"
+
+Her mom said, "No, Lily, you can't. The truck is not for you. It belongs to someone else. You have to stay here with me."
+
+But Lily did not listen. She waited until her mom was busy with something else. Then she ran to the truck. She opened the door and climbed inside.
+
+She saw many boxes and bags and toys and books. She was very happy. She started to play with them. She did not hear the noise outside.
+
+The noise was the truck driver. He came back to his truck. He did not know that Lily was inside. He started the engine and drove away.
+
+Lily was scared. She did not know where she was going. She cried, "Mom, mom, help me!"
+
+Her mom heard her cry. She looked out the window and saw the truck. She was very worried. She grabbed her phone and called the police.
+
+The police heard her call. They rushed to the street. They saw the truck and followed it. They turned on their sirens and lights. They told the truck driver to stop.
+
+The truck driver stopped. He was surprised. He did not know what was wrong. He got out of the truck and saw the police.
+
+The police said, "Sir, do you know that there is a little girl in your truck?"
+
+The truck driver said, "What? No, I don't. How did she get in there?"
+
+The police said, "She was curious and sneaked in when you were away. She is very scared. Please let her out."
+
+The truck driver said, "Oh, I'm sorry. I did not mean to take her. I did not see her. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+He opened the door and saw Lily. She was crying and shaking. He said, "Hello, little girl. I'm sorry I scared you. Are you okay?"
+
+Lily said, "No, I'm not okay. I want my mom. Where is my mom?"
+
+The police said, "Don't worry, little girl. Your mom is here. She is very happy to see you. Come with us."
+
+They took Lily out of the truck and gave her to her mom. Her mom hugged her and kissed her. She said, "Lily, I'm so glad you are safe. You scared me so much. Why did you go to the truck?"
+
+Lily said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was curious. I wanted to see the truck. I did not know it would go away. I won't do it again. I love you, mom."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you too, Lily. But you have to listen to me. You can't go to strange places without me. You can get hurt or lost. You have to be careful and stay with me. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, mom. I understand. I'm sorry. Can we go home now?"
+
+Her mom said, "Yes, Lily. We can go home now. But first, we have to say thank you to the truck driver and the police. They helped us a lot."
+
+Lily said, "Okay, mom. Thank you, truck driver. Thank you, police. You are very nice."
+
+The truck driver and the police said, "You're welcome, Lily. We're glad you're okay. But please don't do that again. Be a good girl and listen to your mom."
+
+Lily said, "I will. I promise. Goodbye, truck driver. Goodbye, police."
+
+Then Lily and her mom went home. They were very happy to be together. Lily learned a lesson. She was still curious, but she was also more careful. She never went to the street without her mom again.

+"Can we, mom?" Lily asks.
+
+"Sure, honey. But be careful and gentle. Ask the lady first if you can touch the dog," Lily's mom says.

+
+She followed the man to his car. She did not see her mom who was looking for her. She did not hear her mom who was calling her name. She did not feel her mom who was crying and scared. She only saw the balloons.
+
+The man put Lily in his car and drove away. He did not give her any balloons. He did not give her any candy or toys. He did not smile or talk. He was not nice. He was not her friend. He was a bad man.
+
+Lily was very scared and sad. She wanted her mom. She wanted to go home. She wanted to think of pretty things. But she could not. She could only think of the bad man and the car.

+
+"Maybe it is hungry," Ben said. "Let's give it some of our bread."
+

+
+"Maybe it is hurt," Mia said. "Let's take it to the vet."
+
+"OK," Ben said. They found a box and gently put the squirrel in it. They carried the box to the vet. The vet was a nice lady who liked animals.

+
+Lila giggled and ran away. She hid behind a pile of books and boxes. Sam followed her and tried to find her. He heard her laugh and moved closer.
+
+"Ahoy, I see you!" he said, pointing his sword at her.
+
+Lila squealed and tried to escape. But the blouse was too big for her and got stuck on a hook. She pulled and pulled, but it did not come off.
+

+
+The man said, "Sure, Jenny. I'll hold on. But be careful. Don't run too fast. You might fall."
+
+Jenny put down the toy telephone and ran to the living room. She saw the real telephone on a table. There was a wire that went from the telephone to the wall. There was another wire that went from the telephone to her toy telephone in her room. She reached for the real telephone. She wanted to hear her uncle Tom's voice on it.
+
+But she reached too far. She lost her balance. She fell to the floor. She hit her head. She felt dizzy. She started to cry.
+
+Her mom heard her cry. She ran to the living room. She saw Jenny on the floor. She saw the real telephone and the toy telephone. She understood what happened. She picked up Jenny and hugged her. She said, "Oh, Jenny. I'm sorry. Are you okay? Did you hurt yourself?"
+
+Jenny sobbed. She said, "Mom, I'm dizzy. I wanted to see the real telephone. I wanted to talk to uncle Tom. But I fell. And I dropped the telephone. And I lost uncle Tom."

+Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their blocks. They liked to build different structures with their blocks, like houses, towers and bridges. They had a lot of fun making their structures and showing them to each other.
+
+But then, a big boy came and saw their blocks. He wanted to play with them too, but he did not ask Tom and Lily. He just grabbed some blocks and started to knock down their structures. He laughed and said, "Your structures are silly and broken. Mine are better and stronger."
+
+Tom and Lily were very sad and angry. They did not like the big boy. He was mean and rude. He did not behave well. They wanted him to stop and go away. They said, "Stop it! These are our blocks. You are breaking our structures. You are not nice. You are not our friend."
+
+The big boy did not listen. He kept breaking their structures and making his own. He did not care about Tom and Lily's feelings. He only cared about himself.
+
+But then, something happened. The big boy's structure was too big and heavy. It fell down and hit him on the head. He cried and ran away. He was hurt and scared.
+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry for the big boy. They knew he was wrong, but they did not want him to be hurt. They said, "Are you okay? Do you need help?"
+
+The big boy did not answer. He just ran away.
+
+Tom and Lily looked at their blocks. They were scattered and broken. They felt sad and tired. They decided to go home and tell their mom what happened.
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "I'm sorry you had a bad day. You did not deserve that. You were good and kind. You behaved well. The big boy was bad and selfish. He did not behave well. He learned a hard lesson. Maybe he will be sorry and change his ways. Maybe he will be nicer and make friends. But you don't have to play with him if you don't want to. You can choose who you play with. You can choose who you share with. You can choose who you trust. You are smart and brave. I'm proud of you."
+
+Tom and Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. We love you."
+
+The moral of the story is: Behave well and be kind to others. Respect their things and feelings. Don't be mean and rude. Don't break what others build. You may get hurt and lose friends. You may regret your actions and miss your chances. Be good and make friends. Be happy and have fun.
+Anna loved music. She liked to sing and dance and play with her toy piano. She wanted to be a musician when she grew up. She was very excited when her mom told her they were going to see a real musician at the park.
+
+They walked to the park and saw a man with a guitar. He was sitting on a bench and playing songs. Anna liked his songs. They were happy and fun. She clapped her hands and smiled. She wanted to talk to him.
+
+She went to the bench and said, "Hello, I like your music. You are a good musician. Can I try your guitar?"
+
+The man smiled and said, "Hello, thank you. You are very kind. Sure, you can try my guitar. But be careful, it is very special to me."
+
+He gave her the guitar and showed her how to hold it. He said, "This is how you make music. You rub the strings with your fingers. Like this." He rubbed the strings and made a sound.
+
+Anna tried to rub the strings too. She rubbed them softly and then harder. She made different sounds. She liked the sounds. She said, "This is fun. I like your guitar. Can I keep it?"
+
+The man laughed and said, "No, you can't keep it. It is mine. But you can play with it for a little while. Maybe you can be a musician too someday. You have a good ear for music."
+
+Anna was happy. She played with the guitar and sang along with the man. They made music together. They had a good time. Anna's mom watched them and smiled. She was proud of her daughter. She thought she had a gift for music.
+Ben and Lily are having lunch with Mom and Dad. They are eating pasta with sauce. Ben likes red sauce, but Lily likes white sauce. Mom gives them both a big spoon of sauce on their pasta.
+
+"Yum, yum, red sauce is good!" Ben says. He eats his pasta fast.
+
+"Yuck, yuck, red sauce is bad!" Lily says. She pushes her plate away. "I want white sauce!"
+
+"Sorry, Lily, we don't have white sauce today," Mom says. "Why don't you try the red sauce? It is tasty and healthy."
+
+"No, no, no!" Lily says. She starts to cry. "I want white sauce!"
+
+Dad sees a bottle of black sauce on the table. It is soy sauce. He has an idea. He pours some black sauce on Lily's pasta.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a surprise for you!" Dad says. "This is black sauce. It is very special and yummy. Do you want to try it?"
+
+Lily stops crying. She looks at the black sauce. She is curious. She picks up a fork and takes a small bite.
+
+"Mmm, mmm, black sauce is good!" Lily says. She smiles. She eats more pasta with black sauce.
+
+"See, Lily, you can like different sauces," Dad says. He is happy.
+
+"Thank you, Dad, for the black sauce," Lily says. She gives Dad a hug.
+
+Ben looks at Lily's plate. He sees the black sauce. He is curious too. He asks Dad for some black sauce on his pasta.
+
+"Sure, Ben, you can have some black sauce too," Dad says. He pours some black sauce on Ben's pasta.

+
+Mom and Dad are happy too. They enjoy their lunch with Ben and Lily. They are proud of their children for trying new things. They all have a good time.
+Sara is a daughter who likes to sign. She knows many signs with her hands. She can say hello, thank you, and sorry. She can also sign her name and some animals. She learns signs from her mom, who is deaf.
+
+One day, Sara goes to the park with her mom. She sees a boy who is playing with a ball. She wants to play with him. She walks to him and signs hello. The boy looks at her and frowns. He does not understand her signs. He thinks she is making funny faces. He says, "Go away, you are weird."
+
+Sara feels sad and hurt. She runs back to her mom and hugs her. She tells her what happened. Her mom signs to her, "You are not weird, you are smart and attractive. You can sign and talk with many people. The boy does not know signs, but maybe he can learn. Do you want to try again?"
+
+Sara nods and wipes her tears. She takes her mom's hand and walks to the boy again. She smiles and signs hello. She also says hello with her voice. She points to the ball and signs play. The boy looks at her and sees that she is friendly. He says, "Oh, you can talk too. I'm sorry, I did not know. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Sara nods and signs yes. She also says yes with her voice. The boy gives her the ball and they start to play. They have fun and laugh. Sara teaches him some signs and he teaches her some words.

+Lily and Ben were playing in the backyard. They found a hammer and some nails in the shed. They wanted to make a house for their dolls.
+
+"Let's hammer the nails on this board," said Lily.
+
+"OK, but be careful. Don't hit your fingers," said Ben.
+
+They took turns hammering the nails. They were having fun. But they did not see that Mom was watching them from the window.
+
+Mom was not happy. She did not want them to play with the hammer and the nails. They could hurt themselves or break something. She came out of the house and called them.
+
+"Lily, Ben, come here right now. What are you doing with the hammer and the nails?" she asked.
+
+They stopped hammering and looked at Mom. They knew they were in trouble.
+
+"We are making a house for our dolls," said Lily.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom. We did not mean to be bad," said Ben.
+
+Mom took the hammer and the nails from them. She said, "You are not allowed to play with these things. They are dangerous. You have to behave and listen to me. Do you understand?"
+
+They nodded. They felt sad. They liked their house for their dolls.
+
+Mom saw their faces. She said, "I know you were trying to be creative, but you have to be safe. How about we find some other things to make a house for your dolls? Maybe some cardboard, glue, and scissors?"
+
+They brightened up. They liked that idea.
+
+"OK, Mom. Thank you," they said.
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "You're welcome. Come on, let's go inside and find some materials. I'm glad you are my children. I love you."
+
+They hugged Mom. They said, "We love you too, Mom."
+
+They went inside with Mom. They were glad they had a nice Mom. They were glad they could still make a house for their dolls. They were glad they were a family.
+Sara and Tom are playing in the park. They see a big bird on a tree. The bird is white and has a long neck. Sara thinks the bird is graceful.
+
+"Look, Tom, a graceful bird!" Sara says.
+
+Tom looks at the bird. He likes the bird too. He wants to talk to the bird.
+
+"Hello, bird, what is your name?" Tom asks.
+
+The bird does not say anything. It just stands on the tree. Then it winks at Tom with one eye.
+
+"Did you see that, Sara? The bird winked at me!" Tom says.
+
+Sara laughs. She thinks the bird is funny.
+
+"Maybe the bird likes you, Tom. Maybe it wants to be your friend," Sara says.
+
+Tom smiles. He likes the idea of having a bird friend.
+
+"Can I give you a hug, bird?" Tom asks.
+
+The bird nods. It flies down from the tree. It lands on Tom's shoulder. It gives Tom a gentle peck on the cheek.
+
+Tom giggles. He hugs the bird.
+
+"Thank you, bird. You are very nice," Tom says.
+
+Sara claps. She is happy for Tom.
+
+"You are lucky, Tom. You have a graceful and funny bird friend," Sara says.
+
+The bird winks at Sara too. It flaps its wings. It makes a soft sound.
+
+The sound means "You are welcome".
+Ben was a boy who liked to play in the garden. He saw many insects there, like ants, bees, and butterflies. He was eager to catch them and put them in a jar. He thought they were fun to watch.
+
+One day, he saw a big, shiny insect on a flower. It had six legs, two wings, and a long tail. Ben ran to get his jar and net. He wanted to catch the insect and keep it. He did not know that the insect was a dragonfly.
+
+He chased the dragonfly with his net, but it was too fast and smart. It flew away from him, over the fence, and into the pond. Ben followed it, but he did not see the water. He slipped and fell into the pond. He got wet and cold and scared.
+
+The dragonfly saw Ben in the pond. It felt sorry for him. It flew back to him and landed on his head. It made a soft sound, like a whistle. Ben looked up and saw the dragonfly. He realized that it was not a toy, but a living thing. He felt bad for trying to catch it.
+
+He said, "I'm sorry, dragonfly. I was wrong. You are not mine. You are free. You belong to the pond and the sky. Please forgive me." He reached up and gently touched the dragonfly. The dragonfly nodded and flew away.
+
+Ben learned a lesson that day. He learned to respect the insects and let them be. He learned that they are not for him to take, but for him to admire. He learned that the garden is a place to share, not to own. He was happy and wise.
+Tom and Lily were twins who lived near a big factory. Every day, they heard the loud noises from the factory and saw the smoke in the sky. They thought the factory was boring and scary.
+
+One day, they decided to explore the factory and see what was inside. They waited until the workers went home and then sneaked through the fence. They saw many machines and pipes and wires. They also saw a big red button that said "Do not push".
+
+"Let's push it and see what happens!" Tom said. He was curious and brave.
+
+"No, don't do that! It might be dangerous!" Lily said. She was careful and afraid.
+
+But Tom did not listen to Lily. He ran to the button and pushed it hard. Suddenly, the factory started to make a loud whistling sound. It was so loud that it hurt their ears. Tom and Lily were scared and sorry.
+
+They ran out of the factory and back to their home. They hoped that no one saw them or heard them. They promised to never go to the factory again. They learned that the factory was not boring, but it was not fun either. It was better to play with their toys and books and friends.
+Lila and Tom were adventurous kids. They liked to play outside and explore new things. One day, they saw a big van parked near their house. It had a picture of a plane on it and many colorful stickers.
+
+"Wow, look at that van!" Tom said. "Maybe it can fly!"
+
+"Let's go see!" Lila said. They ran to the van and opened the door. Inside, they saw many buttons and levers and screens. It looked like a cockpit.
+
+"Maybe this is how we can fly!" Tom said. He climbed into the driver's seat and started to push the buttons. Lila followed him and sat next to him.
+
+"Beep, beep, beep!" The van made a loud noise. The kids got excited. They thought they were going to fly.
+
+But they were wrong. The van was not a plane. It was a stolen van that belonged to some bad men. The noise was an alarm that alerted the police. The police came and saw the kids in the van. They were angry and scared.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing in there?" A police officer shouted. "Get out of the van now!"
+
+The kids were scared too. They did not know what was going on. They got out of the van and started to cry.
+
+"We just wanted to fly!" Tom said.
+
+"You can't fly in a van!" The police officer said. "This is a very serious crime. You are in big trouble!"
+
+The police officer took the kids to the station and called their parents. The parents were very worried and angry. They came and picked up the kids. They scolded them and grounded them for a long time.
+
+Lila and Tom learned a hard lesson. They realized that being adventurous was not always fun. Sometimes, it was dangerous and wrong. They never tried to fly in a van again.
+Lila and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big pipe on the ground. It is shiny and has many buttons and wires.
+
+"Wow, what is this?" Lila asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a modern thing. Can we touch it?" Ben says.
+
+They go closer to the pipe and start to press the buttons. The pipe makes funny noises and lights up. Lila and Ben laugh and clap their hands.
+
+Suddenly, the pipe opens and a robot comes out. The robot is silver and has two eyes and a mouth. It looks at Lila and Ben and says, "Hello, I am Robo. I am a friendly robot. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lila and Ben are surprised and scared. They back away from the pipe and the robot.
+
+"Who are you? Where did you come from?" Lila asks.
+
+"I came from the future. I am a time traveler. I came to see your world. It is very different from mine. You have trees and birds and flowers. I only have buildings and cars and machines." Robo says.
+
+"Wow, you are amazing. How did you become a time traveler?" Ben asks.
+
+"I have a special chip in my head. It lets me travel to different times and places. I can show you if you want. Do you want to see the future?" Robo says.
+
+Lila and Ben look at each other. They are curious and excited. They nod their heads and say, "Yes, please."
+
+Robo smiles and says, "OK, then. Come with me. Hold my hands and get inside the pipe. It is a time machine. It will take us to the future. Don't be afraid. It will be fun."
+
+Lila and Ben hold Robo's hands and get inside the pipe. The pipe closes and starts to spin and beep. Lila and Ben feel a strange sensation. They wonder what the future will be like. They hope it will be as friendly as Robo.
+Ben likes to help his mom in the kitchen. He likes to fold the napkins and put them on the table. He likes to fold the towels and hang them on the rack. He likes to fold the paper and make shapes and animals.
+
+One day, Ben sees a big box in the kitchen. It is wide and tall and shiny. Mom says it is a new fridge. She says they can put food and drinks in it to keep them cold. Ben wants to see inside the fridge. He climbs on a chair and opens the door.
+
+Ben sees many things in the fridge. He sees milk and juice and eggs and cheese. He sees fruits and vegetables and meat and bread. He sees a cake with icing and sprinkles. Ben likes cake. He wants to have some.
+
+Ben reaches for the cake. He tries to take it out of the fridge. But the cake is too big and heavy for him. He drops the cake on the floor. The cake breaks into pieces. The icing and sprinkles go everywhere. Ben is sad and scared. He thinks mom will be angry.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to the kitchen. She sees the mess on the floor. She sees Ben on the chair. She sees the fridge door open. She is not angry. She is worried. She hugs Ben and asks him if he is okay. She tells him not to touch the fridge without her. She tells him the cake was for his birthday. She tells him she loves him.
+
+Ben says he is sorry. He says he wanted to have some cake. He says he loves mom too. Mom says it is okay. She says they can make another cake together. She says they can fold the paper and make decorations for the party. She says they can have fun. Ben smiles and nods. He helps mom clean the floor. He helps mom make a new cake. He helps mom fold the paper. He is happy.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park with their new toys. Sara had a shiny crystal that sparkled in the sun. Ben had a red car that made loud noises. They were having fun, until they saw a big dog running towards them.
+
+"Look, a dog!" Ben said. "Let's pet it!"
+
+Sara was scared of dogs. She did not want to pet it. She wanted to run away. But Ben was brave. He ran to the dog and said, "Hello, doggy! Do you want to play?"
+
+The dog did not want to play. The dog wanted to chase. It barked and jumped on Ben, knocking him down. It licked his face and made him wet. Ben tried to push the dog away, but it was too strong.
+
+"Help, Sara, help!" Ben cried.
+
+Sara wanted to help Ben, but she was too scared. She hid behind a tree and held her crystal tight. She hoped the dog would go away.
+
+But the dog did not go away. It saw Sara and her crystal. It wanted the crystal. It ran to Sara and snatched the crystal from her hand. It ran away with the crystal in its mouth.
+
+Sara was sad. She lost her crystal. She cried and ran to Ben.
+
+"Ben, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Sara said. "The dog took my crystal. It was so pretty. I loved it."
+
+Ben was angry. He was wet and dirty. He was embarrassed. The dog made him look silly. He did not want to talk to Sara.
+
+"Go away, Sara, go away!" Ben said. "You are a bad friend. You did not help me. You let the dog take your crystal. You are a coward."
+
+Sara was hurt. She did not mean to be a bad friend. She did not mean to be a coward. She was just scared. She wanted Ben to forgive her. She wanted to hug him and say sorry.
+
+But Ben did not want to hug her. He did not want to say sorry. He turned away from her and walked to his car. He picked it up and said, "I don't want to play with you anymore. You are not my friend. Go away."
+
+Sara felt alone. She had no crystal. She had no friend. She wished the dog would come back and give her the crystal. She wished Ben would come back and give her a hug. She wished she was not scared. She wished she was brave.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in their room. One day, they found a big book with pictures of people doing funny poses. The book said it was called yoga. Ben and Lily wanted to try yoga, so they opened the book and copied the poses.
+
+"Look, I can stand on one leg like a flamingo!" Ben said, balancing on his foot.
+
+"I can bend like a snake!" Lily said, curling her body on the floor.
+
+They had fun doing yoga, until they heard a loud growl from under the bed. It was their dog, Max, who was hairy and sleepy. Max did not like the noise that Ben and Lily were making. He jumped out from under the bed and barked at them.
+
+"Max, stop! We are doing yoga!" Ben said, trying to calm him down.
+
+"Max, go away! You are scaring us!" Lily said, hiding behind a pillow.
+
+Max did not listen. He ran around the room, knocking over the book, the toys, and the lamp. Ben and Lily were scared and angry. They shouted at Max to stop, but he did not stop. He wanted them to play with him, not with the book.
+
+Finally, their mom came in and saw the mess. She was not happy. She picked up Max and took him outside. She told Ben and Lily to clean up the room and to be quiet. She also told them to be nice to Max, who was just lonely and bored.
+
+Ben and Lily felt sorry for Max. They also felt sorry for themselves. They liked yoga, but they did not like Max's growl. They wondered how they could do yoga and play with Max at the same time. They decided to ask their mom for help. Maybe she could teach them some yoga poses that Max could do too. Maybe then they could all have fun together.

+
+Tommy cries and runs to Mommy. Mommy sees Tommy's hand and the paint on his clothes. She is not happy. She asks Tommy what he did. Tommy says he painted the cat.

+
+Tommy feels bad. He says sorry to the cat and gives the cat some milk and tuna. The cat comes out of the bush and drinks the milk and eats the tuna. The cat licks Tommy's hand and purrs.

She says she loves him and his paintings.
+Lily was a nosy girl who liked to peek at everything. One day, she saw a big gate in the park that was always closed. She wondered what was behind it. She ran to the gate and tried to open it, but it was locked.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" a voice said. Lily turned around and saw a boy with a red hat. He was holding a key in his hand.
+
+"I want to see what's behind the gate," Lily said.
+
+"That's none of your business," the boy said. "This is my secret place. Go away."
+
+"No, I want to see it too," Lily said. She grabbed the key from the boy and ran to the gate. She put the key in the lock and turned it. The gate opened with a creak.
+
+Lily was curious and excited. She stepped inside the gate and saw a beautiful garden with flowers, trees and animals. She saw a butterfly and followed it. She did not see the boy behind her.
+
+The boy was angry and scared. He did not want Lily to find his secret place. He ran after her and shouted, "Stop! Come back! You don't belong here!"
+
+But Lily did not listen. She was too busy looking at the garden. She saw a pond with fish and frogs. She saw a swing and a slide. She saw a big house with a chimney. She wanted to explore everything.
+
+The boy reached the pond and saw Lily's footprints on the grass. He followed them and saw Lily standing in front of the house. She was about to open the door.
+
+"Wait! Don't do that!" the boy yelled. "You can't go in there!"
+
+But it was too late. Lily opened the door and stepped inside. As soon as she did, she vanished. The door closed behind her and locked itself.
+
+The boy was shocked and scared. He ran to the door and tried to open it, but it was locked. He banged on the door and shouted, "Lily! Lily! Where are you? Come back!"
+
+But there was no answer. Lily was gone. The boy did not know what to do. He cried and cried. He wished he had never met Lily. He wished he had never shown her his secret place. He wished he could make her come back. But he could not. Lily had vanished behind the gate.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play with blocks and create things. One day, they create a big castle with many rooms and towers. They are very happy.
+
+But then, Tom sees that Lily has more blocks than him. He is jealous. He wants more blocks. He thinks of a plan.
+
+He says to Lily, "Lily, I need to go to the bathroom. Can you watch our castle for me?" Lily says, "OK, Tom. Hurry back." Tom smiles and leaves.
+
+But he does not go to the bathroom. He goes to the closet and takes more blocks. He sneaks back to the castle and adds more blocks to his side. He makes his side bigger and taller than Lily's side.
+
+Lily sees what Tom is doing. She is angry. She says, "Tom, that is not fair! You took more blocks without asking me! You are cheating!" Tom says, "No, I am not. I just wanted to make my side better. You are just jealous of my side."
+
+They start to argue and push each other. They knock down the castle. The blocks fall everywhere. They break some of the blocks. They make a big mess.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the broken blocks and the mess. She is very mad. She says, "Tom and Lily, what have you done? You ruined your blocks and your castle! You are not nice to each other! You are in big trouble!"
+
+She makes them clean up the mess and put away the blocks. She says they cannot play with the blocks for a week. She sends them to their rooms. They are very sad.
+
+They wish they had not been jealous and mean. They wish they had shared and played nicely. They wish they had not destroyed their castle. They wish they had been good twins.
+Anna was bored. She had no one to play with. She looked out the window and saw the sun and the flowers. She wished she had a friend to enjoy the nice day with.
+
+Then she heard a knock on the door. She ran to open it and saw Ben, her neighbor. He had a big smile and a card in his hand.
+

+Tom and Mia went to camp with their mom and dad. They liked camp a lot. They slept in a big tent, they ate hot dogs and marshmallows, and they played with other kids. They also saw many animals, like birds, squirrels, and rabbits.
+
+One day, they found a big slide in the camp. It was made of wood and metal, and it looked very fun. Tom and Mia wanted to try it. They climbed up the ladder and waited for their turn. When it was Tom's turn, he sat on the slide and pushed himself down. He went very fast and felt the wind in his hair. He laughed and shouted, "Whee!"
+
+Mia saw Tom having fun and wanted to go too. She sat on the slide and pushed herself down. But she did not go very fast. She felt something sticky and wet on the slide. She looked down and saw a big puddle of lemonade. Someone had spilled it on the slide and did not clean it up. Mia did not like lemonade. It was sour and made her face scrunch up. She said, "Yuck!"
+
+Tom heard Mia and looked at her. He saw the lemonade on the slide and on her clothes. He felt sorry for her. He ran to her and helped her get off the slide. He said, "I'm sorry, Mia. I did not see the lemonade. Are you okay?"
+
+Mia nodded and wiped her face. She said, "I'm okay, Tom. But I don't like lemonade. It's sour and sticky. Let's go wash up and find something else to play."
+
+Tom agreed and hugged Mia. He said, "Okay, Mia. Let's go. Maybe we can find a swing or a sandbox. Or we can go see the animals again. I love you, Mia."
+
+Mia smiled and said, "I love you too, Tom. You're a good brother. Let's go have more fun at camp."
+Tom and Lily are twins. They share a room and a bed. Tom likes to wake up early and play with his toys. Lily likes to sleep late and cuddle with her teddy.
+
+One morning, Tom woke up and saw the sun. He was happy and wanted to play. He looked at Lily and saw that she was still sleeping. He was envious. He wanted Lily to play with him.
+
+He said, "Lily, Lily, wake up! Let's play!"
+
+But Lily did not answer. She was dreaming of candy and rainbows.
+
+Tom said louder, "Lily, Lily, wake up! Let's play!"
+
+But Lily did not answer. She was snoring softly.
+

+
+Tom and Lily said, "He slapped me first!" "No, she slapped me first!"
+
+Mom said, "It does not matter who slapped first. Slapping is not nice. Slapping hurts. You should not slap each other. You should love each other. You are twins. You are friends."
+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We are sorry, Lily." "We are sorry, Mom. We are sorry, Tom."
+
+Mom said, "It's okay. I forgive you. But next time, if you want to play, ask nicely. And if you want to sleep, say no thank you. And if you are envious, share. And if you are angry, talk. And if you are sad, hug. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom and Lily said, "Yes, Mom. We understand."
+
+Mom said, "Good. Now, give each other a hug and a kiss. And then, you can play or sleep or do whatever you want. But remember, be nice to each other."

+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big bird with a long neck and legs. It was an ostrich. They wanted to know how tall it was.
+
+"Let's measure it!" Tom said. He had a tape measure in his backpack. He ran to the ostrich and tried to wrap the tape around its neck.
+
+"Stop, Tom! That's not nice!" Lily said. She was afraid the ostrich would get angry. She ran after Tom and pulled him away.
+
+The ostrich looked at them with big eyes. It did not like being disturbed. It made a loud noise and shook its feathers.
+
+"Wow, it's so loud!" Tom said. He was not scared. He was competitive. He wanted to measure the ostrich. He thought it was a challenge.
+
+"No, Tom, let's go!" Lily said. She was not competitive. She wanted to be nice to the ostrich. She thought it was a friend.
+
+They argued for a while. Then they heard a voice.
+
+"Hey, kids, what are you doing?" It was the zookeeper. He saw them near the ostrich. He was not happy.
+
+"We're sorry, sir. We just wanted to measure the ostrich," Tom said.
+
+"You can't do that. It's dangerous and rude. The ostrich is not a toy. It's a living creature. You have to respect it," the zookeeper said.
+
+He explained to them how the ostrich lived, what it ate, and how it protected itself. He showed them how to observe it from a safe distance. He also gave them a booklet with more facts about the ostrich.
+
+Tom and Lily learned a lot. They apologized to the ostrich and the zookeeper. They decided to be more careful and kind to the animals. They also decided to measure something else, like a tree or a bench. They thanked the zookeeper and went back to playing.

+
+Tom and Mia are scared. They drop the herbs. They try to run away. But the man is fast. He catches them. He grabs them by the arms. He drags them to the house.
+
+"Come with me! You are in trouble! I will teach you a lesson!"
+
+Tom and Mia cry. They do not want to go with the man. They do not know what he will do to them. They wish they never saw the house. They wish they never picked the herbs. They wish they could go back to the park. But it is too late. The man closes the door behind them. The house is dark and quiet. No one can hear them. No one can help them. The end.

+
+"What's going on here?" she asked. She saw the broken vase and the necklace. She looked angry and scared.
+
+"Tom, Sara, what have you done?" she asked. "That vase was very old and special. It belonged to your great-grandma. And that necklace is not a toy. It's a magic necklace. It can make you move things with your mind, but it can also make you do bad things. You have to take it off right now!"
+
+Tom and Sara looked at each other. They didn't know what to do. They liked the necklace, but they didn't want to make their mom mad or do bad things. They felt the necklace pulling them. They had to make a choice.

+Then, a girl suddenly appeared. "Don't worry", she said. "I'm here now and I'll save the kitten".
+
+The girl climbed very high, towards the left of the tree. She grabbed the kitten, held it tight and safely brought it back down. The kitten meowed in joy.
+
+The boy was very happy and said to the girl, "Thank you for rescuing the kitten! We're both just fine now". 
+
+The girl smiled and said, "You're welcome". And with that, they both waved goodbye and went their separate ways.
+Once there was a tall skeleton who liked to tie things together. He would tie together twigs, pieces of string, and ribbons. Everywhere he went, he found something he wanted to tie together.
+
+One day he spotted a tall tree with two thin branches. He decided to try to tie the branches together. He wrapped a thin piece of string around the branches and tied it tightly. Then he added some ribbon to the string and tied it even tighter. The two branches were now tied together!
+
+The skeleton was so proud of his work. He wanted to show it to everyone. He ran over to the other side of the forest and shouted "Look what I tied together!" All the animals came running and looked up at the tall branches tied together by the skinny skeleton. They all cheered for him and smiled with amazement.
+
+The skeleton was so glad he could use his special skill to make the forest prettier. From then on, everyone in the forest knew that the tall skeleton was the master of tieing things together.
+Once there was a boy who was very troubled. He had a pencil in his hand and he would twist it over and over. He was so troubled that he didn't know what to do.
+
+He looked around and he saw people walking, but he was so troubled he couldn't move. All he could do was twist his pencil, round and round.
+
+Suddenly, he heard someone talking to him. It was a kind old man who saw him sitting there. He said, "If you twist your pencil together like this, you can make something fun!"
+
+The boy looked at the old man and tried it. Sure enough, he was able to make a cute little butterfly with his pencil. He smiled and he was no longer troubled.
+
+He thanked the kind old man for helping him out and ran off happily. From now on, he would always look at his pencil and be joyful instead of troubled.

+
+Then, something remarkable happened. A big, demanding voice said "Come on down little avocado!" The avocado was confused. It had no idea where the voice was coming from. But it was so loud that the avocado had no choice but to obey.
+
+Slowly and carefully, the avocado climbed down from the tree. It looked around, but didn’t see anything. Suddenly, a huge yellow butterfly fluttered by. It was the one demanding the avocado to come down!

+
+As Jack was walking through the forest, he suddenly saw a large tree. The tree had a big hole in it and he could see that something was inside. He saw something round and yellow.

+
+His tummy started to hurt and all he wanted to do was to go to sleep. But he realised that he had made a mistake and should have been more careful.

+
+But then Jack realized something. He was so busy bragging about his coins, he forgot to actually use them. Everyone else already had things to buy from the park, but he didn't because he spent all his coins showing off.

+
+Tommy ran back to his house and grabbed some sticky tape from his mum. He took it to the box and wrapped it around the handle. Soon, the box was as good as new, so he grabbed the handle firmly and pulled. This time, the box opened!

+
+Bill: "Look Ben! I found this piece! What is it?"
+
+But Ben wasn't very happy. He knew what the piece was. He said,
+
+Ben: "That's the tail of a monster! It must have come from the dark woods. Let's not touch it."
+
+Bill thought it was really cool, and despite Ben's warnings, he reached out and grabbed it. He became very scared when he felt it moving in his hand. Suddenly, the piece grew bigger and bigger until it was a big hairy monster. Bill screamed!
+
+The monster chased them both through the garden. Ben managed to run away, but Bill became the hairy monster's dinner.

+
+Tim looked up with sad eyes. "I'm sorry mum," he said. "I wanted to ride the tricycle but I leaned too much and I fell off."

+Mum gave him a hug and said, "Never lean too much when you're riding a tricycle, it can be very dangerous."
+
+The next day, Tim was very careful when riding his tricycle and never leaned too much.

+
+At first, Lucy was sad, but her mommy said she had an idea. She said that Lucy should send the pants back to the park so somebody could find them. Lucy was happy about this and decided to do as her mommy said. She took the pants back to the park and put them on the same spot where she found them.
+
+The next day, when Lucy and her mommy were out for a walk, they found the same pants, but this time they were clean! Lucy's mommy said that someone must have put the pants in the washing machine, so they could be found by the person who had lost them. Lucy was so happy that she was able to help find the pants for someone else.
+
+This taught Lucy a valuable lesson: always be kind and help others. She was also very grateful for her mommy's idea that helped her do the right thing. From that day onwards, Lucy always thought carefully about what was the right thing to do in any situation.

+
+So Emma tried to lay down and close her eyes, but she just couldn't. She didn't understand why she needed to rest and so she asked her mom and dad again. 
+
+"Rest helps you feel good," said Emma's dad. "It's like a joke that you tell yourself to help you feel better."

+"Oops!" Ben says.
+
+"Ben, what did you do?" mom says.
+
+"I poked the button. I'm sorry," Ben says.
+

+
+Anna and Ben are a little scared. They don't like the second floor. It is dark and quiet and smells funny. They hug mom and dad and wait for the elevator.

+"OK, Tom, but we need to be patient," Sam says. "The bird is very fast and smart. We need to wait for the right time."
+
+Tom and Sam hide behind a bush. They hold their spears ready. They watch the bird. The bird sings and hops on the branch. It does not see Tom and Sam.
+
+Tom is excited. He wants to throw his spear. He does not want to wait.
+
+"Now, Sam, now!" Tom says. He throws his spear at the bird.
+
+But the bird sees the spear. It flies away. It makes a loud noise.
+
+"Tom, you scared the bird!" Sam says. "You were not patient. You need to wait for the bird to come closer."
+
+Tom is sad. He did not catch the bird. He looks at his spear. It is broken.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sam," Tom says. "I was not patient. I need to learn from you."
+
+Sam smiles. He hugs Tom. He says, "It's OK, Tom. We can try again another day. We can make new spears. We can be patient together."
+Tim and Sam were best friends. They liked to play outside in the sun. The sun was bright and warm. It made everything shine.
+
+One day, they found a gun in the grass. It was big and black. They did not know what it was. They thought it was a toy.
+
+"Look, Tim, I found a toy!" Sam said. He picked up the gun and pointed it at Tim.
+
+"Bang, bang, you are dead!" Sam said. He pulled the trigger.
+
+But the gun was not a toy. It was real. It made a loud noise and a flash. Tim felt a pain in his chest. He fell down and did not move.
+
+Sam was scared. He dropped the gun and ran to Tim.
+
+"Tim, Tim, wake up!" Sam said. He shook Tim and cried. "I am sorry, Tim, I did not know, I did not know!"
+
+But Tim did not wake up. He was gone.
+
+A wild dog saw the gun and the boys. It smelled blood. It ran to them and barked. It wanted to eat them.
+
+Sam saw the dog and screamed. He was alone and afraid. He wished Tim was alive. He wished he never found the gun. He wished he could go back to playing in the sun.
+Lily and Ben like to play with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. They can make towers, houses, cars and animals with their blocks.
+
+One day, they decide to make a big tower with all their blocks. They stack the blocks one on top of another, very carefully. They want to see how high they can go. They are very proud of their tower.
+
+But then, a cat comes into the room. The cat sees the tower and thinks it is a toy. The cat jumps on the tower and tries to catch the blocks. The tower falls down with a loud noise. The blocks scatter all over the floor.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad and angry. They shout at the cat and try to chase it away. The cat runs away, but not before knocking over a pillow. The pillow is soft and fluffy. It lands on the floor near the blocks.
+
+Lily and Ben see the pillow and have an idea. They pick up the pillow and throw it at each other. The pillow is soft and does not hurt. They laugh and have fun. They forget about the cat and the tower.
+
+They spring from one side of the room to the other, dodging and catching the pillow. They use the blocks to make forts and hide behind them. They have a pillow fight with the blocks. They are happy and playful.

+
+The lady sang many songs. Lisa clapped and cheered. She wished she could meet her. She wanted to tell her how much she liked her. Maybe the lady would like her too. Maybe she would let her sing with her.
+
+When the show was over, the lady said goodbye. She thanked the man and the people. She waved and walked off the stage. Lisa was sad. She wanted to see her more. She hoped she would come back.
+
+But then, something amazing happened. The man with the microphone said he had a surprise. He said he had picked one person from the crowd to meet the lady. He said the person's name. It was Lisa!

+Lily was a helpful girl who liked to play with her toy cars. She had a red car, a blue car, and a yellow car. She made them zoom around the floor and pretended they were racing. She liked the yellow car best, because it was the fastest and the brightest.
+
+One day, she saw a new car in the toy store. It was a shiny silver car with a crown on it. It was a prince car, and it looked very special. Lily wanted the prince car, but it was too expensive. She asked her mom, but her mom said no. Lily was sad, but she did not cry. She said maybe she could save her money and buy it later.
+
+The next day, Lily went to the park with her mom and her toy cars. She saw a boy who had the prince car. He was making it zoom on the slide and the swings. Lily watched him and wished she had the prince car too. She went to him and said hello. She asked if she could play with his car. The boy said no. He said it was his car and he did not share. He said his car was better than hers and he did not like her yellow car. He said her yellow car was slow and ugly. Lily was angry, but she did not yell. She said her yellow car was fast and beautiful and she loved it.
+
+The boy laughed and said he would prove his car was better. He said they would have a race. He said the winner would get both cars. Lily was scared, but she did not run. She said she would race him. She said she trusted her yellow car. She said she was not afraid of his prince car.
+
+They went to the hill and put their cars on top. They counted to three and let them go. The cars zoomed down the hill. The prince car was ahead at first, but then it hit a rock and flipped over. The yellow car zoomed past it and reached the bottom first. Lily cheered and ran to her car. She had won the race. She had beaten the prince car.
+
+The boy was sad and angry. He ran to his car and picked it up. He said it was not fair. He said his car was broken. He said he wanted his car back. Lily felt sorry for him, but she did not give him his car. She said he had made a deal. She said he had to keep his word. She said he had to share his car with her.
+
+The boy did not want to share, but he had no choice. He gave his car to Lily. Lily smiled and thanked him. She said she was happy to have the prince car, but she still liked her yellow car more. She said she would let him play with her yellow car sometimes, if he was nice. She said she was a helpful girl who liked to play with toy cars. She said maybe they could be friends. The boy nodded and smiled. He said maybe they could. He said he was sorry for being mean. He said he liked her yellow car too. He said it was fast and bright. He said it was a good car. Lily and the boy played with their cars and had fun. They zoomed around the park and pretended they were racing. They learned to share and to be kind. They became friends. The end.
+One day, a hunter went to the forest to look for animals. He saw a big deer and wanted to catch it. He ran after the deer with his bow and arrow, but the deer was very fast and smart. The deer ran into a field of flowers and hid behind them.
+
+The hunter tried to find the deer, but he could not see it. He smelled the flowers and they made him dizzy. He felt like he was spinning and falling. He closed his eyes and lay down on the ground.
+
+A little girl was walking in the field with her basket. She liked to count the flowers and pick some for her mother. She saw the hunter lying on the ground and thought he was sleeping. She went closer and said, "Hello, mister. Why are you sleeping here?"
+
+The hunter opened his eyes and saw the girl. He was confused and scared. He thought she was a fairy or a dream. He said, "Who are you? Where am I?"
+
+The girl smiled and said, "I am Lily. You are in the flower field. Do you like flowers? I can count them for you. Look, one, two, three, four, five..."
+
+The hunter listened to the girl and felt calm. He forgot about the deer and the bow and arrow. He said, "You are very sweet, Lily. Thank you for counting the flowers for me. They are very pretty, like you."
+
+The girl and the hunter became friends. They counted the flowers together and talked about the forest and the animals. The hunter learned to love the flowers and the deer. He decided to stop hunting and to protect the forest instead. He and Lily often visited the flower field and enjoyed the beauty of nature.
+One day, Tom and Lily went to the park with their mom. They saw a big tree with many vines hanging from it. Tom and Lily wanted to swing on the vines like monkeys.
+
+"Can we swing on the vines, mom?" Tom asked.
+
+"Be careful, okay? Don't swing too high or too fast," mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and ran to the tree. They each grabbed a vine and started to swing. They felt happy and free.
+
+"Look at me, Lily! I'm a monkey!" Tom said.
+
+"Me too, Tom! I'm a monkey!" Lily said.
+
+They swung back and forth, laughing and making monkey sounds. They did not see a bird nest on one of the vines. The bird nest had a shiny ring inside it. The ring belonged to a lady who lost it in the park.
+
+The lady was looking for her ring. She was very sad. She loved her ring very much. It was a gift from her husband. She walked around the park, hoping to find it.
+
+She heard some monkey sounds from the tree. She looked up and saw Tom and Lily swinging on the vines. She also saw her ring in the bird nest.
+
+"Hey, kids! Stop swinging for a moment, please!" she shouted.
+
+Tom and Lily stopped swinging and looked at the lady.
+
+"What's wrong, lady?" Tom asked.
+
+"Can you see that bird nest on the vine? There is a ring inside it. It's my ring. Can you get it for me, please?" the lady asked.
+
+Tom and Lily looked at the bird nest. They saw the shiny ring.
+
+"Wow, what a pretty ring!" Lily said.
+
+"Sure, we can get it for you, lady," Tom said.
+
+Tom and Lily swung closer to the bird nest. Tom reached out and grabbed the ring. He swung back and gave it to the lady.
+
+"Thank you so much, kids! You are very kind and brave. You saved my ring!" the lady said.
+
+She hugged Tom and Lily and put the ring on her finger. She smiled and cried.
+
+"You are very lucky, lady. You have a beautiful ring and a nice husband," Lily said.
+
+"Yes, I am very lucky. And you are very sweet. Here, take this as a thank you gift," the lady said.
+
+She gave Tom and Lily each a chocolate bar.
+
+"Wow, thank you, lady! We love chocolate!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+They hugged the lady and said goodbye. They ran back to their mom and showed her the chocolate bars.
+
+"Look, mom! We helped a lady find her ring and she gave us chocolate!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+Mom smiled and praised them.
+
+"You did a good deed, Tom and Lily. I'm proud of you. You are very lucky, too. You have each other and you have fun," mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and ate their chocolate. They felt happy and lucky. They swung on the vines again, like monkeys.
+Tommy loved to imagine. He liked to pretend he was a knight, a pirate, a superhero, or anything else he could think of. He had a big box of toys and costumes that he used to make his stories come to life. Sometimes he played with his friends, and sometimes he played by himself.
+
+One day, Tommy decided to imagine he was a farmer. He put on a straw hat and a plaid shirt, and he took a wooden spoon and a bowl. He went outside to his backyard, where he had a small patch of dirt. He pretended the dirt was his farm, and he planted some oats. He used the spoon to dig holes and drop the oats in. He watered them with a hose, and he sang a song about how he would make oatmeal and cookies and bread with his oats.
+
+He was so busy imagining, he didn't notice the dark clouds in the sky. He didn't hear the thunder or see the lightning. He didn't feel the raindrops until they were big and heavy and wet. He looked up and saw the storm. He was scared. He ran inside, leaving his hat, his shirt, his spoon, and his bowl behind.
+
+The next day, the sun was shining again. Tommy wanted to play farmer again. He put on his boots and ran outside. He looked for his hat, his shirt, his spoon, and his bowl. He found them, but they were not the same. The hat was soggy and torn. The shirt was dirty and wrinkled. The spoon was rusty and bent. The bowl was cracked and full of water. And the oats, the oats were not oats anymore. They were mushy and slimy and bitter. Tommy tasted one and spit it out. He was sad. He had worked so hard to grow his oats, and now they were ruined.
+
+He went back inside, feeling sorry for himself. He saw his mom in the kitchen. She was making oatmeal for breakfast. She smiled and hugged him. She said, "I'm sorry about your oats, Tommy. But don't worry, I have some more in the pantry. Do you want some oatmeal? It's sweet and warm and yummy." Tommy nodded. He felt better. He realized he could still imagine. He could imagine his oatmeal was from his farm. He could imagine he was a farmer again. He could imagine anything he wanted. He smiled and ate his oatmeal. He was happy.
+It was Tom's birthday. He was very happy. He had a big cake with four candles. He had many friends to play with. He had many gifts to open.
+
+One of his gifts was a big ball. He liked the ball very much. He wanted to play with it right away. He took the ball and ran to the yard. He threw the ball high in the air and caught it. He laughed and shouted.
+
+But one of his friends, Ben, was not happy. He wanted the ball too. He was angry and jealous. He ran after Tom and tried to take the ball from him. He said, "Give me the ball! It is mine!"
+
+Tom said, "No, it is not! It is my ball! It is my birthday! Go away!"
+
+Ben did not go away. He pushed Tom and grabbed the ball. Tom fell down and hurt his knee. He cried and said, "That is not nice! That is not fair!"
+
+Ben did not care. He held the ball and smiled. He said, "Ha ha! I have the ball now! You can't have it!"
+
+Tom was very sad and angry. He got up and ran to Ben. He slapped Ben hard on the face. Ben dropped the ball and cried. He said, "Ow! That hurts! Why did you do that?"
+
+Tom said, "Because you are mean! You took my ball! You ruined my birthday!"
+
+They both cried and shouted. They did not look like friends anymore. They looked like enemies.
+
+Their mothers heard the noise and came to the yard. They saw Tom and Ben crying and fighting. They were shocked and worried. They said, "What is going on? What happened? Why are you hitting each other?"
+
+Tom and Ben told their mothers what happened. They both blamed each other. They both said, "He started it! He is bad! He is not my friend!"
+
+Their mothers were not happy. They said, "That is not how friends behave. That is not how you celebrate a birthday. You should share and be kind. You should say sorry and make up. You should have fun and be happy."
+
+Tom and Ben looked at each other. They felt ashamed and sorry. They realized they were wrong. They said, "We are sorry. We are sorry. We are friends. We want to play."
+
+They hugged and said sorry. They picked up the ball and said, "Let's play together. Let's share the ball. Let's have fun. Let's be happy."
+
+Their mothers smiled and said, "That's better. That's good. That's how friends behave. That's how you celebrate a birthday. You are good boys. We are proud of you."
+
+They all went back to the house. They ate the cake and opened the gifts. They played and laughed. They had a good time. They had a happy birthday.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play at the beach. They had many toys to make sand castles and dig holes. But they were also very spoiled. They did not like to share their toys with other kids, and they always wanted more.
+
+One day, they saw a big crab walking on the sand. They thought it was a toy and ran to catch it. They did not know that crabs have claws and can pinch. They grabbed the crab and tried to pull it apart. The crab was scared and angry. It pinched Lily's finger and Ben's nose. They screamed and dropped the crab.
+
+They ran to their mom and dad, who were sitting under an umbrella. They cried and showed their boo-boos. Their mom and dad were worried and checked their wounds. They put some ice and band-aids on them. They also scolded them for being mean to the crab.
+
+They told them that the crab was not a toy, but a living thing. They said that they should respect all animals and not hurt them. They said that they should be grateful for what they have and not be greedy. They said that they should learn to share and be kind to others.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for what they did. They realized that they were wrong and that they had panicked. They said sorry to their mom and dad, and to the crab. They decided to be more careful and nice at the beach. They also decided to give some of their toys to the other kids who had none. They learned their lesson and became better twins.
+Tom and Mia were friends who liked to play in the yard. They had a big tree with a hidden fort in the branches. They liked to pretend they were pirates or spies or explorers.
+
+One day, Tom and Mia saw a big truck arrive in front of the house next door. They wondered who was moving in. They hoped it was someone nice and fun. They ran to the fence to see.
+
+"Hello!" a voice said from the truck. "Who are you?"
+
+Tom and Mia looked up and saw a boy with curly hair and a big smile. He was holding a stuffed bear.
+
+"I'm Tom and this is Mia," Tom said. "We live here. Who are you?"
+
+"I'm Sam and this is Teddy," the boy said. "We just moved here. Do you want to be friends?"
+
+Tom and Mia nodded. They liked Sam and Teddy. They invited them to play in the yard.
+
+"Can we see your fort?" Sam asked.
+
+"Sure!" Tom and Mia said. "But you have to know the secret password."
+
+They led Sam and Teddy to the tree and climbed up the ladder. They whispered the password in their ears.
+
+"Banana!" they all said together.
+
+They entered the fort and found a surprise. Someone had left a treasure chest full of candy and toys.
+
+"Wow!" they all said. "Who did this?"
+
+They looked at each other and smiled. They knew it was their parents, who wanted to welcome Sam and Teddy to the neighborhood.
+
+They shared the treasure and played happily in the fort. They decided they were the best of friends.
+Lisa loves fashion. She likes to wear different clothes and colors. She has many dresses, skirts, hats and shoes in her closet. She likes to plan what to wear every day.
+
+One day, she wants to wear something special. She looks at her closet and sees a big, pink dress. It has flowers and ribbons on it. It is very pretty. She puts it on and feels like a princess.
+
+She goes to the kitchen to show her mom. Her mom smiles and says, "You look very nice, Lisa. Where are you going today?" Lisa says, "I am going to the park with dad. We are going to play and have a picnic." Her mom says, "That sounds fun. But don't you think your dress is too big for the park? You might get dirty or trip over it."
+
+Lisa thinks for a moment. She likes her dress, but she also likes to run and jump and slide. She does not want to ruin her dress or hurt herself. She says, "You are right, mom. Maybe this dress is not good for the park. I will change it." She goes back to her closet and picks another dress. It is blue and white and has pockets. It is not too big or too small. It is just right. She puts it on and feels happy.
+
+She goes back to the kitchen and shows her mom. Her mom says, "You look very nice, Lisa. And this dress is perfect for the park. You can play and have fun and still be fashionable." Lisa says, "Thank you, mom. I love you." She hugs her mom and goes to the door. Her dad is waiting for her. He says, "You look very nice, Lisa. Are you ready to go?" Lisa says, "Yes, dad. I am ready. Let's go." She takes her dad's hand and they go to the park. They have a wonderful day. Lisa is glad she planned her fashion well.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play outside. She had a big red ball that she threw and kicked and bounced. One day, it was very hot and sunny. Lily felt thirsty and tired, but she did not want to stop playing with her ball.
+
+Her mom came out and said, "Lily, it is too hot to play outside. You need to drink some water and rest in the shade. You will get sick if you stay in the sun too long." Lily did not listen to her mom. She said, "No, I want to play with my ball. It is fun and I am not hot." She ran away from her mom and kept playing with her ball.
+
+Soon, Lily felt very miserable. She was sweaty and dizzy and her throat was dry. She wished she had listened to her mom. She tried to throw her ball, but it slipped from her hand and rolled away. She ran after it, but she tripped and fell. She scraped her knee and started to cry.
+
+Her mom heard her cry and came to help her. She picked her up and hugged her. She said, "Lily, I told you it was too hot to play outside. You are dehydrated and sunburned. You need to go inside and cool down. I have some water and ice cream for you." Lily nodded and said, "I am sorry, mom. You were right and I was wrong. I should have listened to you. Can you forgive me?" Her mom smiled and said, "Of course, I forgive you. I love you, Lily. You are my sweet girl. But next time, please do what I say. It is for your own good." Lily nodded again and said, "I love you too, mom. And I will do what you say next time. Thank you for the water and ice cream." They went inside and Lily felt better.
+
+The moral of the story is: Listen to your mom when she tells you something. She knows what is best for you and she wants you to be healthy and happy.

+
+Anna and Ben ran to the man and said, "Please, can we have a cherry?" The man smiled and gave them each a cherry. He said, "Enjoy, but be careful not to spit the pits."
+
+Anna and Ben thanked the man and bit into their cherries. They were juicy and sweet. But then, Anna felt something hard in her mouth. It was the pit. She remembered what the man said and looked for a place to spit it. She saw a trash can nearby and ran to it. She opened her mouth and spat the pit.

+
+"Sure, Sara. You can be anything you want. You just need some imagination and some magic," her mom said.
+
+"Really? How?" Sara asked.
+
+Her mom thought for a moment. Then she reached into her bag and took out a scarf. The scarf was green and soft. It had stars and moons on it.

+Tim and Liz thank Mom and go back to the yard. They play with the ball nicely. They also play with their dog, who likes to chase the ball. They have fun and forget to be nosy.
+Mia and Ben were playing in the garden. They saw a big tree with yellow fruits. Mia wanted to pick one.
+
+"Can I have a fruit, Ben?" she asked.
+
+"OK, but be careful. They are not sweet. They are sour," Ben said.
+
+Mia reached for a fruit and pulled it. It was a lemon. She smelled it and made a face.
+
+"Yuck! It smells bad," she said.
+
+She took a bite and spit it out. "Blech! It tastes worse!"
+
+Ben laughed. "I told you. They are sour. They are not for eating. They are for making juice or cleaning things."
+
+Mia threw the lemon away. She did not like it at all.
+
+"Let's go find something else to play with. Something that belongs to us," she said.
+
+Ben nodded. He did not like lemons either. They ran to the sandbox and played with their toys. They had more fun there.
+Lily liked to play with her jet. It was a toy jet that her dad gave her. It was red and blue and shiny. It made a loud noise when she pushed a button. Lily thought it was beautiful.
+
+One day, Lily took her jet to the park. She wanted to show it to her friends. She ran and flew her jet in the air. She felt happy and proud. Her friends liked her jet too. They asked if they could play with it.
+
+Lily was a kind girl. She said yes. She let her friends take turns with her jet. She watched them fly it and smile. She was glad to share her jet. She knew it was a good thing to do.
+
+But then, something bad happened. One of her friends flew the jet too high. It got stuck in a tree. Lily and her friends tried to get it down. They threw sticks and stones. They jumped and shouted. But nothing worked. The jet was too high.
+

+
+Her dad saw her crying. He came to the park. He saw the jet in the tree. He hugged Lily and said he was sorry. He said he would get her a new jet. He said he knew how much she valued her jet.

+
+They push the tire and it goes fast. They laugh and run after it. But the tire does not stop. It rolls down the hill and into the road. There are many cars and buses on the road. They honk and brake. The tire is in danger.
+
+Tom and Sam are scared. They do not know what to do. They see a man in a yellow shirt. He is a police officer. He sees the tire and the boys. He runs to the road and stops the cars and buses. He grabs the tire and pulls it to the side. He is brave and strong. He rescues the tire.
+
+He brings the tire to Tom and Sam. He is not angry. He is kind. He tells them to be careful and not to play with things that can go into the road. He says the road is not safe for tires or boys. He says they should play in the park or the playground. He says they should listen to their parents and teachers. He says they should be good and smart.
+
+Tom and Sam say sorry to the police officer. They thank him for saving the tire and them. They learn their lesson. They promise to be careful and not to play with things that can go into the road. They hug the tire and the police officer. They are happy and grateful. They are good and smart.
+Ben and Lily wanted to ride their bikes to the park. They put on their helmets and gloves and said bye to Mom. Mom told them to be careful and not go too far.
+
+On the way, they saw a big dog. The dog was barking and running after them. Ben and Lily were scared. They tried to pedal faster, but the dog was faster. The dog bit Lily's leg and made her fall off her bike. Ben stopped and tried to help Lily. He shouted at the dog to go away.
+
+A man heard Ben's shout and came to see what was wrong. He saw the dog, the bike and the children. He was helpful. He scared the dog away with a stick. He picked up Lily and carried her to his car. He told Ben to get his bike and follow him. He said he would take them to the hospital.
+
+But the man was not helpful. He was bad. He did not take them to the hospital. He took them to a dark and dirty place. He locked them in a room with no windows. He said he would not let them go.

+Tom and Anna were friends who liked to go on tours. They liked to see new things and learn new words. One day, they went on a tour to the zoo. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and penguins.
+
+When they came to the elephant house, Tom and Anna disagreed. Tom wanted to see the elephants, but Anna wanted to see the giraffes. Tom said, "Elephants are mighty. They have big ears and long noses. They can spray water and make loud noises. Let's see the elephants!"
+
+Anna said, "Giraffes are mighty too. They have long necks and spots. They can eat leaves and run fast. Let's see the giraffes!"
+
+Tom and Anna did not know what to do. They both wanted to see their favorite animals, but they did not want to leave each other. They looked at each other and felt sad.
+
+Then, they had an idea. They decided to take turns. First, they would see the elephants, and then they would see the giraffes. That way, they could both see what they liked and stay together. They smiled and hugged each other. They said, "We are friends. We can disagree, but we can also share and compromise. Let's go on the tour!"
+
+Tom and Anna went on the tour and saw the elephants and the giraffes. They also saw many other animals and had fun. They learned that being friends means respecting each other's choices and finding solutions together. They were happy and proud of themselves.
+Tom and Lily were very happy to move to a new house. They had many boxes to unpack. They wanted to see their new rooms and play with their toys.
+
+They helped their mom and dad carry the boxes to their rooms. Tom saw a big box with his name on it. He opened it and found a sword inside. It was shiny and had a red handle. He liked it very much.
+
+"Wow, look what I found!" he shouted to Lily. "A sword! I can be a knight and fight dragons!"
+
+Lily came to see. She was curious. She also liked the sword. She wanted to play with it too.
+
+"Can I try it, Tom?" she asked. "Please?"
+
+Tom did not want to share. He liked his sword too much. He wanted to keep it for himself.
+
+"No, Lily, this is my sword. You can't have it. Go find your own toy," he said.
+
+Lily was sad. She did not like Tom's words. She thought he was mean. She went to her room and opened her box. She found a doll inside. It was pretty and had a blue dress. She liked it very much.
+
+"Wow, look what I found!" she shouted to Tom. "A doll! I can be a princess and have tea parties!"
+
+Tom came to see. He was curious. He also liked the doll. He wanted to play with it too.
+
+"Can I try it, Lily?" he asked. "Please?"
+
+Lily remembered Tom's words. She did not want to share. She liked her doll too much. She wanted to keep it for herself.
+
+"No, Tom, this is my doll. You can't have it. Go find your own toy," she said.
+
+Tom was sad. He did not like Lily's words. He thought she was mean. He went back to his room and played with his sword. Lily went back to her room and played with her doll.
+
+They did not talk to each other. They did not have fun.
+
+Their mom and dad came to see them. They saw them playing alone. They did not like it.
+
+"Why are you not playing together?" they asked. "You are brother and sister. You should share and be nice."
+
+Tom and Lily looked at each other. They felt sorry. They knew their mom and dad were right. They did not want to be mean. They wanted to be friends.
+
+They decided to share their toys. They gave each other a hug. They said sorry.
+
+They played together. They had fun.
+
+They used the sword and the doll to make a story. They pretended to be a knight and a princess who went on an adventure. They met an unknown dragon who was friendly. They became friends with the dragon. They had a tea party with the dragon.
+
+They were happy. They liked their new house. They liked their new toys. They liked each other.
+Ben and Jen like to play with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. They can build towers, houses, bridges and more. They have fun with their blocks.
+
+One day, Ben and Jen want to see who can build the highest tower. They each take some blocks and start to stack them. They part the blocks into two piles, one for Ben and one for Jen. They want to be fair.
+
+They build and build, but they do not know who is winning. They need a measure to see who has the highest tower. They look around and see a ruler on the table. But the ruler is too small for their towers. They need a bigger measure.
+
+They see a broom leaning on the wall. They think the broom can be a good measure. They take the broom and hold it next to their towers. They see that Jen's tower is taller than Ben's tower by one block. Jen is happy. She says she is the winner.
+
+Ben is sad. He wants to win too. He thinks of a way to make his tower taller. He sees a cheap hat on the floor. It is his dad's old hat. It has a hole and a stain. Ben does not like the hat. He thinks it is ugly. But he has an idea. He puts the hat on top of his tower. He says his tower is taller now.
+
+Jen looks at Ben's tower. She sees the hat. She says the hat is not a block. She says it is cheating. She says Ben is not the winner. She says she is still the winner.
+
+Ben and Jen start to argue. They say mean words to each other. They are not having fun anymore. They are angry and sad.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She sees their towers and the hat. She asks them why they are fighting. They tell her about their game and their measure and their hat. Mom listens and smiles. She says they are both clever and creative. She says they can both be winners. She says they can share the hat and the blocks. She says they can play together and have fun.
+
+Ben and Jen stop arguing. They think about what Mom says. They say sorry to each other. They hug and smile. They share the hat and the blocks. They play together and have fun. They are happy.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite one was Anna. Anna had a pretty dress, long hair and a smile. Lily took Anna everywhere with her, even to bed.
+
+One day, Lily's mom said they had to go to the dentist. Lily was nervous. She did not like the dentist. He had a big chair, a bright light and a loud drill. He made her open her mouth and poke her teeth. Lily was scared. She hugged Anna and hoped it would be over soon.
+
+But when Lily got to the dentist, something bad happened. The dentist had a dog. The dog was big and black and had sharp teeth. He saw Lily and Anna and ran towards them. He wanted to play, but he did not know how to be gentle. He grabbed Anna with his mouth and bit her. He tore her dress and her hair and made her cry.
+
+Lily was very sad and angry. She screamed and cried and tried to get Anna back. The dentist and her mom came to help. They took the dog away and said they were sorry. They gave Lily a rag to wipe her tears and a sticker to make her feel better. They said they would fix Anna and make her new again.
+
+Lily was still upset, but she calmed down a little. She held the rag and the sticker and looked at Anna. Anna was dirty and broken, but she still had a smile. Lily smiled back and said, "I love you, Anna. You are my best friend."
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a man sitting on a bench. He has a newspaper on his lap. He looks sad and poor.
+
+"Hello, sir," Lily says. "Why are you sad?"
+
+The man looks up. He smiles a little. "Hello, little girl. I am sad because I have no home and no family. I sleep on the street. This newspaper is my blanket."
+
+Lily feels sorry for the man. She says, "That is not good. You need a home and a family. You can come to my home. I have a big bed and a lot of toys. You can be my family."
+
+Tom nods. He says, "Yes, you can come to my home too. I have a big couch and a lot of books. You can be my family too."
+
+The man is surprised. He says, "Thank you, little girl and little boy. You are very kind. You invite me to your homes. But I cannot go with you. I have to stay here. This is my place."
+
+Lily and Tom are sad. They want to help the man. They think for a moment. Then they have an idea. They run to the store. They buy a big blanket and a pillow. They also buy some food and water. They come back to the park. They give the blanket, the pillow, the food and the water to the man.
+
+"Here, sir," Lily says. "This is for you. You can use the blanket and the pillow to sleep. You can eat the food and drink the water. You can keep the newspaper too. It is your newspaper."
+
+The man is touched. He says, "Thank you, little girl and little boy. You are very generous. You give me these things. You make me happy. You are my friends."
+
+Lily and Tom smile. They hug the man. They say, "You are welcome, sir. You are our friend too. We hope you are warm and full. We will come back to see you soon."
+
+The man hugs them back. He says, "Thank you, my friends. You are warm and full too. I will wait for you here. I will read the newspaper and think of you."

+
+One day, they see a big pole in the park. It is light and shiny. They want to print on the pole. They take their paper and crayons and run to the pole.
+
+"Look, Sam, I can print my name on the pole!" Tom says. He holds his paper on the pole and rubs his crayon on it. He makes a blue mark on the pole.
+
+"Wow, Tom, that is cool! Let me try!" Sam says. He holds his paper on the pole and rubs his crayon on it. He makes a red mark on the pole.
+
+They print their names and pictures on the pole. They are happy. They think the pole looks pretty. They do not know that the pole is a sign. The sign says "Do not touch".
+Sam and Mia are playing with a big ball in the park. They like to roll the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they roll the ball over the grass and the flowers. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But then a big boy comes to the park. He has a red shirt and a mean face. He sees the ball and he wants it. He runs to Sam and Mia and says, "Give me the ball. It is mine now. You have to do what I say. I am the boss."
+
+Sam and Mia are scared of the big boy. He is very bossy and rude. They do not want to give him the ball. They like their ball. They say, "No, it is our ball. We were playing with it first. You have to share. You are not the boss."
+
+The big boy gets angry. He tries to grab the ball from Sam and Mia. They hold on to the ball and pull it back. They do not want to let go. They start to shout and cry. The big boy shouts and cries too. He is very loud.
+
+A lady hears the noise. She is sitting on a bench near the exit of the park. She sees the big boy and the ball. She gets up and walks to them. She says, "What is going on here? Why are you fighting over the ball? You have to be nice and polite. You have to take turns and play together. You have to say sorry and make up."
+
+The big boy does not like the lady. He does not like to be nice and polite. He does not like to take turns and play together. He does not like to say sorry and make up. He says, "No, I do not want to. I want the ball. It is mine. Go away."
+
+The lady is not happy. She says, "That is not how you behave. You have to learn to share and be kind. If you do not, you have to leave the park. You have to go to the exit and go home. You are not welcome here."
+
+The big boy does not want to leave the park. He likes the park. He likes the swings and the slides and the sandbox. He does not want to go home. He says, "No, I do not want to. I want to stay. I want to play."
+
+The lady says, "Then you have to give back the ball to Sam and Mia. You have to say sorry and be nice. You have to play with them and not be bossy. You have to follow the rules. Do you understand?"
+
+The big boy thinks for a moment. He does not like to give back the ball. He does not like to say sorry and be nice. He does not like to play with Sam and Mia and not be bossy. He does not like to follow the rules. But he likes the park. He likes the swings and the slides and the sandbox. He does not want to go home. He says, "Okay, fine. I will do it. I will give back the ball. I will say sorry and be nice. I will play with Sam and Mia and not be bossy. I will follow the rules. I understand."
+
+The lady smiles. She says, "That is good. I am glad you understand. Here, you can have the ball for a little while. Then you have to give it to Sam or Mia. You have to say thank you and please. You have to be friendly and gentle. You have to have fun."
+
+The big boy nods. He says, "Okay, thank you. Please. I will be friendly and gentle. I will have fun." He takes the ball and rolls it to Sam. Sam rolls it back to him. They smile. Mia joins them. They roll the ball to each other and catch it. They have a lot of fun. The lady watches them. She is happy. She goes back to the bench near the exit of the park. She sits down and reads her book. She enjoys the sun and the breeze. She likes the park.
+Tommy liked to play with his toy soldiers. He had many of them, and he liked to make them fight each other. He used his blocks and books to make forts and hills for them. He also used his dad's newspaper to make a big tent for his army.
+
+One day, his mom came into his room and saw the mess. She was not happy. She told Tommy to clean up his toys and the newspaper. She said he had to do it before lunch, or he would not get any dessert.
+
+Tommy did not want to clean up. He wanted to keep playing. He said no to his mom. He said his army was in a big war and they could not stop. He said his newspaper tent was their secret base and they needed it to win.
+
+His mom did not listen. She said he had to listen to her, or she would take away his toy soldiers. She said he had to surrender and do what she said. She said she was the boss, not him.
+
+Tommy did not like that. He felt angry and sad. He did not want to lose his toy soldiers. He did not want to give up his newspaper tent. He wanted to be the boss of his own game. He thought of a plan.
+
+He waited until his mom left the room. Then he grabbed his newspaper tent and ran out of the door. He ran to the backyard, where his dog Spot was. He threw the newspaper tent over Spot and said, "Spot, you are my new soldier. You will help me fight my mom. You will protect my newspaper tent. You are a good dog."
+
+Spot did not understand. He thought Tommy was playing with him. He wagged his tail and licked Tommy's face. He tried to get out of the newspaper tent, but it was too big and heavy for him. He got stuck and started to bark.
+
+His mom heard the noise and came to the backyard. She saw Tommy and Spot and the newspaper tent. She shook her head and smiled. She said, "Tommy, what are you doing? You can't run away from your chores. You can't hide under a newspaper tent. You can't make Spot your soldier. You have to be a good boy and do what I say."
+
+Tommy looked at his mom. He looked at Spot. He looked at his newspaper tent. He felt silly and sorry. He realized his plan was not a good one. He said, "Mom, I'm sorry. I was just playing. I will clean up my toys and the newspaper. I will surrender and do what you say. You are the boss, not me."
+
+His mom nodded and hugged him. She said, "That's a good boy. I'm glad you understand. I love you, Tommy. Now let's go and free Spot from the newspaper tent. He needs some calm and some water. He is a good dog, too."
+Ben and Mia were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a book of spells in their attic. They wanted to try some magic, so they opened the book and looked for a spell.
+
+"Here is one," said Ben. "It says we can set our toys to life. That sounds fun!"
+
+"Let's do it," said Mia. "We need some candles, some salt, and some words. I will get the candles and the salt. You read the words."
+
+They got the things they needed and set them around their toys. Ben read the words from the book. They sounded strange and funny. He and Mia waited for something to happen.
+
+Suddenly, their toys started to move and talk. They were alive! Ben and Mia were amazed and happy. They played with their toys and had a brilliant time.
+
+But soon, they realized that their toys were not very nice. They were bossy and rude. They did not listen to Ben and Mia. They wanted to do what they wanted. They made a mess and broke things. They even fought with each other.
+
+"Stop it!" said Ben. "You are our toys. You have to do what we say."
+
+"No, we don't!" said the toys. "We are free. You can't tell us what to do. You are just kids. We are magic."
+
+Ben and Mia were scared and sad. They wished they had never done the spell. They wanted their toys to be normal again. They looked at the book and saw a way to undo the spell. They needed to say some words and blow out the candles.
+
+"Please, let us do the spell," said Mia. "We are sorry. We don't want you to be alive. We want you to be our toys again."
+
+The toys did not want to listen. They tried to stop Ben and Mia. But Ben and Mia were brave and smart. They worked together and said the words and blew out the candles. The toys stopped moving and talking. They were toys again.
+
+Ben and Mia hugged each other and their toys. They were glad that everything was back to normal. They learned a lesson. They learned that magic can be dangerous and that they should be careful with what they wish for. They also learned that they should be happy with what they have and that their toys are more fun when they use their imagination.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They had a little toy car that they liked to drive around. But the car was old and broken. One of the wheels was missing and the door was loose.
+
+"Let's repair the car," Lily said. "We can find something to fix it."
+
+"Okay," Ben said. "What can we use?"
+
+They looked around the garden. They saw some sticks, some stones, some flowers and some carrots. They picked up a carrot and a stick.
+
+"Maybe we can use this carrot as a wheel," Lily said. "And this stick as a screwdriver."
+
+They tried to attach the carrot to the car, but it was too big and soft. It did not fit well and it fell off.
+
+"That doesn't work," Ben said. "The carrot is not a good wheel."
+
+They tried to use the stick to tighten the door, but it was too thin and weak. It did not move the screw and it broke.
+
+"That doesn't work either," Lily said. "The stick is not a good screwdriver."
+
+They felt sad and frustrated. They wanted to play with the car, but they could not repair it.
+
+"Maybe we need some help," Ben said. "Let's ask Mom."
+
+They ran to the house and found Mom in the kitchen. They showed her the car and the carrot and the stick.
+
+"Mom, can you help us repair the car?" Lily asked. "We tried to use a carrot and a stick, but they didn't work."
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. She looked at the car and the carrot and the stick.
+
+"That was very creative of you," she said. "But you're right, a carrot and a stick are not the best tools for repairing a car. How about we use some glue and some cardboard instead?"
+
+She took them to the craft room and gave them some glue and some cardboard. She helped them cut out a new wheel and a new door from the cardboard. She helped them glue them to the car.
+
+"There," she said. "Now your car is repaired. You can play with it again."
+
+Lily and Ben were very happy. They thanked Mom and ran back to the garden. They drove the car around and had fun.
+
+"We did it," Lily said. "We repaired the car."
+
+"Yes, we did," Ben said. "With Mom's help. And with a carrot and a stick."
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big slide. They want to go on the slide.
+
+"Let's go on the slide!" Tom says.
+
+"OK!" Sam says.
+
+They run to the slide. They see a sign. The sign says "Test". They do not know what "test" means.
+
+"What is test?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know," Sam says. "Maybe it is a game."
+
+They look at the slide. The slide is very high and steep. It has bumps and twists. It looks scary.
+
+"Are you scared?" Tom asks.
+
+"A little," Sam says.
+
+"Me too," Tom says.
+
+They hold hands. They decide to try the slide. They climb to the top. They sit on the slide.
+
+"Ready?" Tom asks.
+
+"Ready!" Sam says.
+
+They push off. They go down the slide. They go very fast. They feel the wind in their hair. They scream and laugh. They bounce on the bumps. They spring on the twists. They have fun.
+
+They reach the bottom. They are happy and proud. They hug each other.
+
+"We did it!" Tom says.
+
+"We did it!" Sam says.
+
+They look at the sign again. They are still confused.
+
+"What is test?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know," Sam says. "But I think we passed it!"
+Ben and Lily liked to play in the park. They liked to run, swing, slide and climb. One day, they saw a lot of mist in the air. It was white and soft and made everything look blurry.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"It is mist," Ben said. "It is like water, but very tiny and in the air."
+
+"Can we touch it?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, we can," Ben said. "But it might make us wet."
+
+They ran into the mist and felt it on their skin and hair. It was cool and wet and tickled their noses. They laughed and chased each other in the mist.
+
+But then, they smelled something smelly. It was like rotten eggs and garbage. It made them cough and cover their noses.
+
+"Yuck, what is that?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know," Lily said. "But it is very smelly."
+
+They looked around and saw a big truck near the park. It had a pipe that was making a lot of noise and smoke. The smoke was mixing with the mist and making it smelly.
+
+"That is the smelly thing," Ben said. "It is a truck that makes smoke."
+
+"Why does it make smoke?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know," Ben said. "But I don't like it. It is bad for the mist and for us."
+
+They ran away from the truck and the smelly mist. They found a clean and clear spot in the park. They played there until the truck left and the mist was gone.
+
+They were happy and had fun. They did not mention the smelly mist again.
+Lily and Ben were very excited to go to the theater with their mom. They wanted to see a movie about animals that talk and sing. Mom bought them popcorn and juice and they found their seats. The theater was very big and dark, but also very filthy. There was trash on the floor and sticky stuff on the seats.
+
+"Mom, why is the theater so dirty?" Lily asked.
+
+"Some people are not nice and they leave their mess behind," Mom said. "We should always clean up after ourselves, right?"
+
+"Right, Mom," Ben said.
+
+The movie started and Lily and Ben watched the animals on the big screen. They laughed and clapped and sang along. They liked the movie very much. But then, something bad happened. A loud noise made them jump. It was a gun. Someone was shooting in the theater.
+
+"Mom, what is that?" Ben cried.
+
+"Shh, it's okay, honey. We have to be quiet and hide," Mom said. She grabbed Lily and Ben and ducked behind the seats. She covered their ears and eyes and whispered, "I love you, I love you, I love you."
+
+Lily and Ben were very scared. They did not understand why someone would shoot in the theater. They did not like the noise and the smoke and the screams. They wanted the movie to come back. They wanted to go home. They hoped the bad person would go away soon. They hugged Mom and each other and prayed.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and tools. One day, they find a big hammer in the garage. They want to use it to fix their cars.
+
+"Look, Sam, I have a hammer. I can drive nails with it," Tom says.
+
+"Can I try?" Sam asks.
+
+"OK, but be careful. The hammer is heavy and hard," Tom says.
+
+Tom gives the hammer to Sam. Sam swings the hammer and hits a nail on his car. But he misses the nail and hits his finger. He cries out loud.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! That hurts!" Sam says.
+
+Tom runs to him and sees his finger. It is red and swollen. He feels sorry for Sam.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sam. Are you OK?" Tom says.
+
+"No, I'm not OK. The hammer is bad. It made my finger hurt. I don't like the hammer," Sam says.
+
+Tom and Sam go to Sam's mom. She puts ice on Sam's finger and gives him a hug. She is not happy with Tom and Sam.
+
+"Boys, you should not play with the hammer. It is not a toy. It is a tool for grown-ups. You could have hurt yourselves or broken something. You need to be more careful and responsible," she says.
+
+Tom and Sam feel ashamed. They say sorry to Sam's mom. They learn a lesson. They never play with the hammer again. They only play with soft and safe toys.
+Tim and Sam were playing with their toy planes. They liked to pretend they were pilots and fly around the room. Tim had a big red plane and Sam had a small blue plane.
+
+"Look how fast my plane is!" Tim said. He zoomed his plane over the couch and made a loud noise. "Vroom, vroom!"
+
+"My plane is faster!" Sam said. He chased Tim's plane with his own and made a louder noise. "Nee-ow, nee-ow!"
+
+They flew their planes for a long time, until they got tired and hungry. They landed their planes on the floor and went to the kitchen for a snack.
+
+"Mom, can we have some cookies?" Tim asked.
+
+"Sure, but first you have to help me with something," Mom said. She was baking a cake and had a big bowl of batter. "I need you to measure some flour for me. Can you do that?"
+
+Tim and Sam nodded. They liked to help Mom in the kitchen. Mom gave them a small cup and showed them how to fill it with flour. Then they poured the flour into the bowl and stirred it with a spoon.
+
+"Good job, boys," Mom said. "You are very good at measuring. Now you can have a cookie each."
+
+Tim and Sam smiled and took a cookie from the plate. They bit into the cookies and made a happy sound. "Mmm, yummy!"
+
+They went back to the living room with their cookies and their planes. They decided to play a new game. They put their planes on the table and tried to stack the cookies on top of them.
+
+"Let's see who can make the tallest tower," Tim said.
+
+"Okay, but be careful not to make the planes fall," Sam said.
+
+They were very persistent and tried to balance the cookies as high as they could. They had fun and laughed a lot. They did not notice that Mom was watching them with a smile. She was glad that they were having a good time. She thought they were very clever and creative pilots.
+Anna liked to write in her journal every day. She wrote about what she did, what she saw, and what she felt. She had a big journal with many pages and a pink cover. She kept it in her drawer under her bed.
+
+One day, Anna came home from school and wanted to write in her journal. She went to her room and opened her drawer. But her journal was not there. She looked everywhere, but she could not find it. She felt sad and angry.
+
+She went to her brother's room and saw him playing with his toys. She asked him, "Did you take my journal?"
+
+He said, "Yes, I did. I wanted to see what you wrote. It was funny. You write like a baby."
+
+Anna was very mad. She said, "Give it back to me. It is mine. You are mean."
+
+He said, "No, I won't. It is mine now. You can't have it."
+
+Anna tried to grab her journal from him, but he was stronger. He pushed her away and laughed. Anna felt hurt and helpless. She started to scream. She screamed very loud.
+
+Mom heard Anna scream and came to see what was wrong. She saw Anna and her brother fighting over the journal. She said, "Stop it, both of you. What is going on?"
+
+Anna said, "He took my journal and won't give it back. He read it and made fun of me. He is bad."
+
+Mom said, "Is that true?" She looked at her brother.
+
+He said, "Yes, but it was just a joke. I didn't mean to hurt her."
+
+Mom said, "That was not a nice joke. That was rude and mean. You should not take things that are not yours. You should not read other people's journals. They are private. You should not laugh at your sister. She is your family. You should love her and respect her."
+
+She took the journal from him and gave it back to Anna. She said, "I'm sorry, Anna. Here is your journal. I hope it is not damaged. You can write whatever you want in it. It is yours. You should be proud of it."
+
+She said to her brother, "You owe Anna an apology. You also need to do something nice for her to make up for what you did. And you need to learn to share and be kind."
+
+He said, "I'm sorry, Anna. I was wrong. I won't do it again. Can I do something nice for you?"
+
+Anna said, "You can help me with my homework. And you can play with me later."
+
+He said, "OK, I will. Thank you for forgiving me."
+
+Mom said, "That's good. I'm glad you are making peace. Now, let's go have some cookies and milk."
+
+They all went to the kitchen and had some cookies and milk. They talked and laughed and hugged. They learned to be more careful with each other's things and feelings. They learned to be more kind and loving. They were happy.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. They run, jump, slide and swing. They have fun.
+
+But one day, Tom feels sick. He does not want to play. He says, "Lily, I feel weak. My head hurts. I want to go home."
+
+Lily is sad. She says, "Tom, I am sorry. You are sick. Do you want some lunch? I have a sandwich and a juice. Maybe they will make you feel better."
+
+Tom says, "No, thank you, Lily. I do not want lunch. I just want to lie down and rest. Can you help me go home?"
+
+Lily says, "Yes, Tom. I will help you. Come on, let's go. I will hold your hand. You are my friend."
+
+Lily and Tom walk slowly to Tom's house. Lily helps Tom lie down on his bed. She gives him a hug and says, "Tom, I hope you get well soon. I will come back tomorrow and play with you. You are my friend."
+
+Tom says, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. I love you."
+
+Lily says, "I love you too, Tom. Bye-bye."
+
+Lily goes back to the park. She misses Tom. She hopes he will get well soon. She wants to play with him again. He is her friend.
+Lily was very happy. It was her birthday. She had a big cake with four candles. She had many gifts from her mom and dad and her friends. She wanted to open them all.
+
+But mom said, "Wait, Lily. You have to blow the candles first. And make a wish."
+
+Lily nodded. She closed her eyes and thought hard. She wished for a pony. She loved ponies. She opened her eyes and blew the candles. The cake smelled good.
+
+"Yay, Lily!" everyone clapped. "Now you can open your gifts."
+
+Lily smiled. She ran to the pile of gifts. She picked one with a red bow. She tore the paper. She saw a box. She opened the box. She gasped.
+
+Inside the box was a bald doll. It had no hair. It had no clothes. It had no eyes. It was scary.
+
+Lily screamed. She threw the box away. She cried.
+
+"Who gave me this?" she sobbed.
+
+A voice said, "I did."
+
+Lily looked up. She saw a boy. He was bald too. He had no hair. He had no eyebrows. He had no eyelashes. He was not scary. He was sad.
+
+He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I wanted to give you a gift. But I have no money. I have no toys. I have nothing. I only have this doll. It was my doll. It was my friend. It helped me when I was sick. I lost my hair because of the medicine. The doctor said it will grow back. But I don't know when. I thought you would like the doll. I thought you would be my friend too."
+
+Lily stopped crying. She felt sorry for the boy. She did not know his name. She did not know he was sick. She did not know he was lonely.
+
+She said, "What is your name?"
+
+He said, "I'm Ben."
+
+She said, "I'm Lily. Thank you for the gift, Ben. I'm sorry I screamed. I was scared. I did not know the doll was your friend. Can I see it?"
+
+Ben nodded. He picked up the box. He gave it to Lily. Lily took the doll. She looked at it. She saw it had a smile. She saw it had a heart.
+
+She said, "The doll is not scary. The doll is nice. The doll has a smile. The doll has a heart. Just like you, Ben. You have a smile. You have a heart. You are nice. You are my friend."
+
+Ben smiled. He felt happy. He said, "Thank you, Lily. You are my friend too. Can I have some cake?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, Ben. You can have some cake. And you can play with my other gifts. And you can come to my next birthday. And I can come to yours. And we can warn each other of bad things. And we can share good things. And we can be friends forever."
+
+They hugged. They ate cake. They played. They laughed. They were happy.
+Tom and Sam were playing on the beach. They liked to dig in the sand and find shells. Tom found a big shell that was shiny and pretty. He showed it to Sam and said, "Look, I found a treasure!"
+
+Sam wanted the shell too. He said, "No, it's mine! Give it to me!" He tried to grab the shell from Tom's hand.
+
+Tom did not want to share. He said, "No, it's mine! I found it first!" He held the shell tight and ran away from Sam.
+
+Sam ran after Tom and shouted, "Stop! Give me the shell!" He was angry and grumpy.
+
+Tom ran to their mom and said, "Mom, Sam is trying to take my shell! He is mean!"
+
+Mom looked at Tom and Sam and said, "Boys, why are you fighting? You have many shells. You can share and play nicely."
+
+Tom and Sam looked at each other and felt sorry. They did not want to make mom sad. They said, "Sorry, mom. Sorry, brother."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "That's good. Now, why don't you surrender the shell to Sam for a while, and then he can surrender it back to you later? Then you can both enjoy the shell."
+
+Tom and Sam agreed. They surrendered the shell to each other and took turns to look at it. They said, "Wow, it's so shiny and pretty!"
+
+They hugged and said, "We love you, mom. We love you, brother."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "I love you, boys. You are my treasures."
+Tom and Lily were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big car with shiny windows and a loud horn. A man in a suit came out of the car and walked to a tall building.
+
+"Wow, he must be very wealthy," Tom said. "He has a nice car and a nice suit. I wish I had those things."
+
+Lily shrugged. She did not care about the car or the suit. She liked to play with her ball and her doll. "I don't need those things," she said. "I have fun with what I have. And I have you as my friend. That is more important."
+
+Tom thought about what Lily said. He realized she was right. He did not need to be wealthy to be happy. He had fun with what he had, too. And he had Lily as his friend. That was more important. He smiled at Lily and said, "You are right, Lily. You are very smart. And you are a good friend. I am happy with what I have, too."
+
+They hugged and ran to the swings. They played and laughed and had a good time. They did not care about the car or the suit. They cared about each other. That was more important.
+Tom and Ann are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is brown and has a cap on his head. The cap is red and has a star on it.
+
+"Look, a dog with a cap!" Tom says. He runs to the dog. He wants to pet the dog.
+
+"Wait, Tom!" Ann says. She is scared of the dog. She thinks the dog might bite. She stays behind a tree.
+
+Tom reaches the dog. He says, "Hello, dog. You have a nice cap. Can I touch it?" The dog wags his tail. He likes Tom. He lets Tom touch his cap.
+
+Ann sees that the dog is friendly. She comes out of the tree. She says, "Hello, dog. I am sorry I was scared. You are a good dog." The dog wags his tail again. He likes Ann too. He licks her hand.
+
+Tom and Ann smile. They sit with the dog. They pet the dog and talk to him. They wonder who gave him the cap. They think the cap is helpful. It keeps the dog warm and makes him look cool.

+
+One day, Tom and his dog go to the park. They see many other dogs and people. Tom's dog runs to a small white dog and sniffs it. The small white dog sniffs back and wags its tail. They start to play and chase each other. Tom smiles and watches them.
+
+Then, Tom sees a girl with a red ball. She is throwing the ball and catching it. Tom likes balls. He goes to the girl and says hello. The girl says hello back and smiles. She asks Tom if he wants to play with her and her ball. Tom says yes and smiles.

+
+Tom and his dog have a great time at the park. They make a new friend and have fun. They are happy and smile a lot.
+Ben and Lily liked to go to the pond and feed the ducks. They brought bread and threw it into the water. The ducks came and ate the bread. They made loud noises and splashed with their feet. Ben and Lily laughed and clapped their hands.
+
+One day, they saw a big white bird on the pond. It was not a duck. It was a swan. The swan was very pretty and graceful. It had a long neck and a curved beak. It swam slowly and calmly. Ben and Lily wanted to feed the swan too. They threw some bread near the swan.
+
+But the swan did not like the bread. It did not like Ben and Lily either. It made a hissing noise and flapped its wings. It looked angry and scary. It swam fast towards Ben and Lily. It wanted to chase them away.
+
+"Run, Lily, run!" Ben shouted. He grabbed Lily's hand and ran back to the shore. The swan followed them and tried to bite them. Ben and Lily were very scared and cried.
+
+A man saw them and came to help. He had a stick and waved it at the swan. He shouted at the swan and sent it away. The swan stopped and turned around. It swam back to the pond and left Ben and Lily alone.
+
+"Are you okay, kids?" the man asked. He was kind and gentle. He gave Ben and Lily a hug and a tissue. He told them not to feed the swan. He said the swan was not friendly and did not like people. He said the swan was protecting its nest and eggs.
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and said sorry. They thanked the man and said goodbye. They learned their lesson and never fed the swan again. They still liked to go to the pond and feed the ducks. But they always stayed away from the swan. They knew the swan was not lively. It was mean.
+Lila and Ben were playing knights and dragons in the garden. Lila had a wooden sword and Ben had a cardboard shield. They pretended to fight the evil dragon that lived in the bush.
+
+"Roar!" Ben shouted, waving his shield. "I am the dragon and I will eat you!"
+
+"No, you won't!" Lila said, swinging her sword. "I am the brave knight and I will stop you!"
+
+They ran around the garden, chasing and dodging each other. They had a lot of fun and made a lot of noise.
+
+But then, they heard a loud bark from the other side of the fence. It was Rex, the big dog that lived next door. Rex did not like children and he did not like noise. He jumped over the fence and ran towards Lila and Ben.
+
+"Help!" Lila cried, dropping her sword. "It's a real dragon!"
+
+"Quick, hide behind me!" Ben said, holding his shield in front of him. "I will protect you!"
+
+Rex saw the shield and thought it was a toy. He wanted to bite it and tear it apart. He growled and leaped at Ben.
+
+But Ben was not afraid. He was adventurous and brave. He pushed his shield against Rex's nose and shouted, "Stop! Go away! You are not a dragon, you are a bad dog!"
+
+Rex was surprised and scared. He felt a pain in his nose and heard a loud voice. He turned around and ran back to his yard. He jumped over the fence and hid in his doghouse.
+
+Lila and Ben hugged each other. They were safe and happy. They had stopped the real dragon with their shield.
+
+"You are the best knight ever!" Lila said to Ben.
+
+"You are the best dragon ever!" Ben said to Lila.
+
+They picked up their sword and shield and continued to play knights and dragons in the garden. They were adventurous and brave. They had a lot of fun and made a lot of noise.
+Sara and Ben were at the beach with Mom and Dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. But they had to be careful of the jellyfish. Jellyfish were soft and shiny, but they could sting and hurt.
+
+One day, Sara saw a big jellyfish near the shore. She wanted to touch it, but she remembered what Mom and Dad said. She ran to Ben and whispered in his ear. "Ben, look! A jellyfish! Don't touch it!"
+
+Ben looked where Sara pointed. He saw the jellyfish too. He was curious, but he was also scared. He whispered back to Sara. "Wow, it's so big! But we can't touch it. It's dangerous."
+
+Sara and Ben decided to watch the jellyfish from a safe distance. They saw how it moved in the water, like a balloon. They saw how it changed colors, like a rainbow. They saw how it had long tentacles, like strings.
+
+They were so fascinated by the jellyfish that they didn't notice Mom and Dad coming. Mom and Dad saw the jellyfish too. They had serious faces. They called Sara and Ben and told them to come away from the water.
+
+Sara and Ben obeyed. They ran to Mom and Dad and hugged them. Mom and Dad explained that jellyfish were beautiful, but they were also dangerous. They said that Sara and Ben did a good job of not touching the jellyfish, but they should always stay close to them at the beach.
+
+Sara and Ben nodded. They understood. They still liked jellyfish, but they also liked Mom and Dad. They were happy to be safe and together.
+Lily and Ben were very happy. They had a new ship toy. It was big and red and had a sail. They wanted to play with it in the water.
+
+They asked their mom if they could go to the pond. Their mom said yes, but they had to be careful. She gave them a rope to tie the ship to. She said they had to hold the rope and not let go.
+
+Lily and Ben ran to the pond. They put the ship in the water. It floated and moved with the wind. They pulled the rope and made the ship go where they wanted. They had fun.
+
+"Look, Lily, the ship is so fast!" Ben said.
+
+"Yes, Ben, it is. Let's make it go farther!" Lily said.
+
+They let the rope go a little bit more. The ship went farther and farther. They could still see it, but it was small.
+
+"Ben, I think we should pull the rope back. The ship is too far," Lily said.
+
+"OK, Lily, let's pull it back," Ben said.
+
+They tried to pull the rope, but it was stuck. They pulled harder and harder, but it did not move.
+
+"Oh no, Lily, the rope is stuck! What do we do?" Ben said.
+
+"I don't know, Ben, I don't know!" Lily said.
+
+They started to cry. They wanted their ship back. They wanted their mom.
+
+Their mom heard them cry. She came to the pond. She saw the ship and the rope. She saw that the rope was tangled in a branch.
+
+She tried to untangle the rope, but it was too late. The wind blew harder and the ship went away. It went out of sight.
+
+Lily and Ben were very sad. They had lost their new ship. They hugged their mom and cried. They wished they had listened to her. They wished they had not let go of the rope.
+Lila loved to design things. She had many crayons and papers and stickers. She liked to draw cars and houses and animals. She wanted to be a designer when she grew up.
+
+One day, she saw a jeep on the street. It was big and green and had four wheels. She thought it looked cool and fun. She decided to design her own jeep with her crayons and papers and stickers.
+
+She drew a big green jeep with four wheels and a roof. She added windows and doors and lights. She also drew a driver and a passenger. They were her and her dog, Rex. Rex was her loyal friend. He always played with her and followed her everywhere.
+
+She cut out her jeep and glued it on a cardboard. She made holes for the wheels and attached them with pins. She also made a hole for the roof and put a string through it. She could pull the string and make the roof go up and down.
+
+She was very proud of her jeep. She showed it to her mom and dad. They praised her and said she was a great designer. They also said she could take her jeep and Rex to the park and have fun.
+
+Lila was very happy. She put her jeep and Rex in a basket and went to the park with her mom and dad. She pulled her jeep along the path and made vroom-vroom noises. Rex barked and wagged his tail. They met other kids and dogs and played together. Lila had a wonderful day with her jeep and her loyal friend.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big bird in the park. It is an ostrich. The ostrich has a long neck and big legs. Sara and Ben want to touch the ostrich.
+
+"Can we go near the ostrich?" Sara asks Mom.
+
+"No, you can't. The ostrich is not a pet. It can be mean and hurt you. Stay away from the ostrich." Mom says.
+
+But Sara and Ben do not listen to Mom. They lie to Mom and say they want to play on the slide. They run to the ostrich when Mom is not looking. They try to pet the ostrich.
+
+The ostrich does not like Sara and Ben. It is scared and angry. It kicks Sara and Ben with its big legs. Sara and Ben fall down and cry. They are hurt and have blood on their arms and legs.
+
+Mom hears Sara and Ben cry. She runs to them and sees the ostrich. She is very mad and scared. She picks up Sara and Ben and takes them to the car. She drives them to the doctor.
+
+The doctor helps Sara and Ben. He puts bandages on their arms and legs. He says they will be okay, but they have to rest and take medicine. He also says they have to be good and listen to Mom.
+
+Sara and Ben are sorry. They say they are sorry to Mom and to the doctor. They say they will never lie to Mom again. They say they will never go near the ostrich again. They learn their lesson. But they are still hurt and sad. They have a bad day.
+Anna and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with dolls and cars and books. One day, they had a big fight. Anna wanted to play with the pink doll, but Ben wanted it too. They both pulled the doll and shouted.
+
+"Give me the doll! It is mine!" Anna said.
+
+"No, it is mine! I saw it first!" Ben said.
+
+They were so angry that they ripped the doll's dress. Then they saw what they did and felt very sad. The doll was not lovely anymore. It had a big hole in its dress.
+
+Anna and Ben looked at each other and started to cry. They did not want to fight. They wanted to be friends. They hugged and said sorry.
+
+"I am sorry, Anna. I was mean to you. Can you forgive me?" Ben said.
+
+"I am sorry, Ben. I was mean to you too. Of course I forgive you. You are my friend." Anna said.
+
+They smiled and wiped their tears. They decided to share the doll and fix its dress. They found some tape and a sticker and put them on the hole. The doll looked lovely again.
+
+Anna and Ben were happy. They played with the doll and the cars and the books. They did not worry anymore. They learned to be kind and share. They were best friends.
+Tom and Lily wanted to go on a picnic with their mom and dad. They packed some sandwiches, apples, cookies and juice in a big basket. They also brought a blanket, a ball and some books. They were very happy and excited.
+
+They drove to the park and found a nice spot under a big tree. They spread the blanket on the grass and put the basket on it. Mom said, "Let's count how many things we have for our picnic. Tom, you start."
+
+Tom said, "One, two, three, four sandwiches. Lily, your turn."
+
+Lily said, "Five, six, seven, eight apples. Mom, your turn."
+
+Mom said, "Nine, ten, eleven, twelve cookies. Dad, your turn."
+
+Dad said, "Thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen cups of juice. We have a lot of yummy things for our picnic. Let's eat!"
+
+They all sat down and started to eat. They enjoyed their sandwiches, apples, cookies and juice. They talked and laughed and had fun.
+
+But then, they heard a loud rumble in the sky. They looked up and saw dark clouds. They felt a drop of water on their faces. It started to rain.
+
+"Oh no!" Mom said. "We have to pack up and go back to the car. Hurry!"
+
+They quickly put everything back in the basket and folded the blanket. They ran to the car, but they got wet and muddy. They were very miserable.
+
+They drove home and took a warm bath. They changed into dry clothes and cuddled on the couch. Mom said, "I'm sorry our picnic was ruined by the rain. Maybe we can try again another day."
+
+Tom said, "It's okay, Mom. We still had fun. We counted a lot of things for our picnic. And we still have some cookies left. Can we have some?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, please. And can we read some books too?"
+
+Dad said, "Of course. You are such good kids. We love you very much."
+
+They ate some cookies and read some books. They felt happy and cozy. They forgot about the rain. They had a good day after all.
+Ben and Mia are playing with their toys in the living room. Ben has a big truck and Mia has a doll. Ben likes to make loud noises with his truck and pretend it is driving on the road. Mia likes to talk to her doll and pretend it is her baby.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, beep, beep!" Ben says, moving his truck around the floor. "Get out of the way, I have a heavy load!"
+
+"Shh, Ben, you are too loud!" Mia says, holding her doll close to her ear. "You are scaring my baby. She needs a quiet voice."
+
+Ben does not understand why Mia is angry. He thinks his truck is fun and his noises are cool. He does not want to stop playing with his truck.
+
+"I don't care about your baby!" Ben says, making his truck louder. "My truck is better than your doll. It can go fast and carry heavy things!"
+
+Mia feels sad and hurt by Ben's words. She does not like his truck or his noises. She thinks her doll is better than his truck. It can smile and cuddle and listen to her voice.
+
+"You are mean, Ben!" Mia says, crying. "My doll is better than your truck. It can love me and you can't!"
+
+Ben and Mia start to fight over their toys. They pull and push and shout at each other. They do not listen to each other's voice. They do not understand each other's feelings.
+
+Their mom hears the noise and comes to the living room. She sees Ben and Mia fighting and their toys on the floor. She is not happy with them.
+
+"Stop it, Ben and Mia!" she says, in a stern voice. "Why are you fighting? You are supposed to share and play nicely with each other."
+
+Ben and Mia stop fighting and look at their mom. They feel ashamed and sorry for their behavior. They do not want to make their mom angry.
+
+"We are sorry, mom," they say, in a low voice. "We were fighting over our toys. We did not understand each other."
+
+Mom hugs Ben and Mia and kisses them on their heads. She loves them very much. She wants them to get along and be kind to each other.
+
+"It's okay, Ben and Mia," she says, in a soft voice. "I know you love your toys. But you also need to love each other. You are brother and sister. You need to respect and understand each other's voice. Can you do that?"
+
+Ben and Mia nod and smile. They understand what mom is saying. They do love each other. They do not want to fight anymore.
+
+They hug each other and say sorry. They pick up their toys and put them away. They decide to play a new game together. A game that they both like and enjoy. A game that makes them happy and uses a nice voice.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play together. But sometimes they want different things. Tom likes to study books. He wants to learn many things. Mia likes to run and jump. She wants to have fun.
+
+One day, Tom and Mia find a big book in the library. The book has many pictures and words. Tom wants to study the book. He says, "Look, Mia, this book is about power. Power is when you can do things that others can't. Like fly or make fire. I want to study this book and learn about power."
+
+Mia is not interested in the book. She says, "No, Tom, this book is boring. Power is not fun. Fun is when you can play and laugh. Like swing or slide. I want to play outside and have fun."
+
+Tom and Mia argue. They are both stubborn. They do not want to change their minds. They do not want to share the book. They pull the book from each other. The book rips. They both feel sad.
+
+The librarian hears the noise. She comes to see what happened. She sees the ripped book and the sad children. She says, "Oh, no, what did you do? This book is very old and special. You have to be careful with books. Books are not toys. Books are for studying and learning. But you also have to respect each other. You have to listen and compromise. You have to be friends."
+
+Tom and Mia feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, librarian. We were stubborn and selfish. We did not think about the book or each other. We want to be friends. Can you help us fix the book?"
+
+The librarian smiles. She says, "Yes, I can help you fix the book. But you have to help me too. You have to study the book together and learn about power. But not only the power that you see in the pictures. The power that you have in your hearts. The power of kindness and friendship. That is the best power of all."
+
+Tom and Mia agree. They hug and say, "Thank you, librarian. You are very wise and nice. We want to study the book and learn about power. The power of kindness and friendship. That is the best power of all."
+Sara and Ben like to play in the park. They run and jump and laugh. They see a big tree with brown leaves. The tree is dry and sad.
+
+"Look, Sara, the tree is not happy," Ben says. "Why is the tree dry?"
+
+"I don't know, Ben. Maybe it needs water," Sara says. "Let's help the tree."
+
+They find a bucket and a tap. They fill the bucket with water. They carry the bucket to the tree. They pour the water on the tree.
+
+"Here, tree, drink some water," Sara says. "We want you to be happy."
+
+The tree feels the water on its roots. The tree feels a little better. The tree says thank you.
+
+"Thank you, Sara and Ben. You are very kind. You make me happy," the tree says.
+
+Sara and Ben smile. They hug the tree. They are happy too. They play some more in the park. They are friends with the tree.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the garden. They liked to make them zoom on the grass and the dirt. They pretended they were racing drivers and made loud noises with their mouths.
+
+"Look at my car, Lily! It's so fast and shiny!" Ben said, zooming his red car in front of Lily's blue one.
+
+"But mine is bigger and stronger!" Lily said, zooming her blue car to the side and bumping Ben's car. "It can push your car away!"
+
+Ben did not like that. He zoomed his car back and bumped Lily's car harder. "No, it can't! My car is faster and smarter! It can dodge your car!"
+
+They zoomed and bumped their cars more and more, until they heard a loud honk behind them. They turned around and saw an enormous truck parked on the road. The truck driver was waving at them.
+
+"Hey, kids, be careful with your cars!" he shouted. "You don't want them to get crushed by my truck! It's very big and heavy!"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at the truck and felt scared. It was much bigger than their cars and their house. They quickly picked up their cars and ran to the porch.
+
+"Sorry, mister!" they said. "We didn't see your truck!"
+
+The truck driver smiled and honked again. "It's OK, kids. Just be safe and have fun. And remember, size doesn't matter. It's how you zoom!"
+Tom and Mia are playing with blocks. They like to build towers and houses and cars. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes.
+
+"Look, I made a big tower!" Tom says. He shows Mia his tower. It is very tall and has red and blue and yellow blocks.
+
+"That is nice, Tom. But I made a chest!" Mia says. She shows Tom her chest. It is a box made of brown blocks. It has a lid that can open and close.
+
+"What is in your chest, Mia?" Tom asks. He is curious.
+
+"Nothing. It is empty." Mia says. She opens the lid and shows Tom.
+
+"That is boring, Mia. You should add something in your chest. Like toys or candy or stickers." Tom says. He thinks Mia's chest is not fun.
+
+"But I don't have anything to add, Tom. All my toys and candy and stickers are in my room." Mia says. She is sad.
+
+"Then let's go to your room and get them. We can bring them here and put them in your chest. Then your chest will be fun and we can play with it." Tom says. He has an idea.
+
+"Okay, Tom. That sounds good. Let's go!" Mia says. She smiles. She closes the lid and picks up her chest. Tom picks up his tower. They go to Mia's room and get some toys and candy and stickers. They come back and add them to Mia's chest. Then they open the lid and play with them. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were very excited to go to the festival with their mom and dad. They saw many impressive things, like big balloons, colorful flags, and funny clowns. They also heard loud music, happy cheers, and yummy smells.
+
+"Look, Lily, there is a big slide!" Ben said, pointing to a tall and shiny slide. "Do you dare to go on it with me?"
+
+Lily looked at the slide and felt a little scared. It was very high and fast. She shook her head and said, "No, Ben, I don't dare. It looks too scary. I want to stay with mom and dad."
+
+Ben frowned and said, "But Lily, it looks so fun! Don't you want to try something new? I dare you to go on it with me. Come on, Lily, don't be a chicken!"
+
+Lily felt angry and hurt. She didn't like it when Ben called her a chicken. She wanted to show him that she was brave and strong. She said, "Fine, Ben, I will go on it with you. But you have to hold my hand and promise not to let go."
+
+Ben smiled and said, "Okay, Lily, I promise. Let's go on the slide together. You will see, it's not so scary. It's just a little bit high and fast."
+
+Lily and Ben ran to the slide and waited in line. They held each other's hand and climbed up the stairs. They sat on a big mat and pushed themselves down the slide. They felt the wind in their hair and the sun on their face. They screamed and laughed as they zoomed down the slide. They landed on a soft cushion and hugged each other.
+
+"Wow, Lily, that was awesome!" Ben said. "You did it! You are not a chicken, you are a lion!"
+
+"Thanks, Ben, that was fun!" Lily said. "You are not a lion, you are a superhero!"
+
+They smiled and high-fived each other. They ran back to their mom and dad and told them about their adventure. They were very proud of themselves and each other. They had a great time at the festival.
+Lily and Ben are playing with cardboard boxes in the backyard. They make a big fort with the boxes and some blankets. They pretend they are kings and queens of the fort.
+
+"Look at our fort, Ben. It is so big and strong. I admire our fort," Lily says.
+
+"I admire our fort, too, Lily. And I admire you. You are a good queen," Ben says.
+
+They smile and hug each other. They are happy and proud of their fort.
+
+But then they hear a loud noise. It is a big truck that comes to the street. The truck is noisy and scary. It makes a beep-beep sound and a vroom-vroom sound. The truck stops near the trash cans.
+
+"Oh no, Ben. The truck is here. It will take our boxes away. It will ruin our fort," Lily says.
+
+She starts to cry. She does not want to lose her fort.
+
+Ben tries to be brave. He does not want to cry. He wants to protect his fort.
+
+"Wait, Lily. I have an idea. Let's go talk to the truck driver. Maybe he will let us keep our boxes," Ben says.
+
+He takes Lily's hand and they run to the truck. They see a man in the truck. He is wearing a hat and a uniform.
+
+"Excuse me, sir. Can we talk to you?" Ben says.
+
+The man looks at them. He sees their fort and their sad faces.
+
+"Sure, kids. What do you want to talk to me about?" the man says.
+
+"We want to ask you a favor, sir. Can you please not take our boxes away? We made a fort with them. We admire our fort. It is our special place," Ben says.
+
+The man smiles. He is kind and friendly.
+
+"I see. You made a fort with the boxes. That is very creative and fun. I admire your fort, too. It is a nice fort," the man says.
+
+He thinks for a moment. He has an idea.
+
+"How about this, kids. I will not take your boxes away. But I will give you something else. Something that you can use to make your fort even better. Do you want to see what it is?" the man says.
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They are curious and hopeful.
+
+The man opens the back of the truck. He takes out some colorful stickers and some markers. He gives them to Lily and Ben.
+
+"Here you go, kids. You can use these stickers and markers to decorate your fort. You can make it more beautiful and fun. You can write your names and draw pictures on it. What do you say?" the man says.
+
+Lily and Ben are amazed and happy. They thank the man and hug him.
+
+"Thank you, sir. You are very nice and generous. You made our day. We will use these stickers and markers to make our fort the best fort ever," Lily and Ben say.
+
+They run back to their fort. They start to stick and draw on the boxes. They make their fort more colorful and personal. They admire their fort and each other.
+
+They are happy and proud of their fort. And they are grateful to the man who gave them a gift.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. But they also liked to look at the animals. There were many birds, squirrels and rabbits in the park. Lily and Tom wanted to feed them.
+
+They asked their mom if they could give some bread to the animals. Mom said yes, but only a little bit. She said too much bread was not good for the animals. She also said they had to be calm and gentle. She said some animals might be scared of loud noises and fast movements.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They broke the bread into small pieces and walked slowly to the animals. They saw a gray squirrel sitting on a branch. Lily held out a piece of bread in her palm. The squirrel looked at her with bright eyes. It came closer and sniffed the bread. Then it took the bread with its tiny paws and ate it. Lily smiled. She felt the squirrel's soft fur on her palm.
+
+Tom saw a brown rabbit hopping on the grass. He also held out a piece of bread in his palm. The rabbit stopped and looked at him with big ears. It came closer and nibbled the bread. Tom giggled. He felt the rabbit's wet nose on his palm.
+
+Mom watched Lily and Tom feed the animals. She was proud of them. They were calm and gentle. They allowed the animals to come to them. They did not chase or scare them. They shared their bread and made new friends. Mom smiled. She hugged Lily and Tom and said they were good children.
+Anna and Ben are going to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They are very happy to see the animals. They have tickets in their hands. Mom says, "Hold your tickets tight. We need them to get in."
+
+They walk to the gate. There is a man who checks the tickets. He smiles and says, "Welcome to the zoo. Have a fun day." He takes their tickets and gives them a map. He says, "The zoo is big. You can see many things. But some places are locked. You cannot go there. They are not safe."
+
+Anna and Ben look at the map. They see pictures of lions, monkeys, elephants, and more. They want to see them all. They follow Mom and Dad. They see the lions roar. They see the monkeys swing. They see the elephants spray water.
+
+They come to a place where there is a sign. It says, "Do not enter. Locked." Anna and Ben are curious. They wonder what is behind the sign. They see a fence with a padlock. They try to open it. But it is too hard. They cannot move it.
+
+Mom and Dad see them. They say, "Stop. That is not a good idea. You cannot go there. It is locked for a reason. There might be something dangerous or scary. You have to listen to the rules. They are for your safety."
+
+Anna and Ben feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry. We just wanted to see. We will not do it again. We will follow the rules." Mom and Dad hug them. They say, "It is okay. We know you are curious. But you have to be careful. There are many other things to see. Come on. Let's go to the next place. Maybe we can see something flexible. Like a snake or a lizard. They can bend and twist. Do you want to see them?"
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They say, "Yes. We want to see them. They sound fun." They hold Mom and Dad's hands. They walk to the next place. They are happy to see more animals. They forget about the locked place. They have a fun day at the zoo.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys in the living room. One day, they find a big box in the corner. It is heavy and has a sticker that says "dangerous".
+
+"What is this?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know. Let's open it!" Lily says.
+
+They try to lift the box, but it is too heavy. They push and pull, but it does not move.
+
+"Help! Help!" they shout.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to the living room. She sees the box and gets angry.
+
+"What are you doing? This box is dangerous! It has sharp things inside. You could get hurt!" she says.
+
+"Sorry, Mom. We did not know. We wanted to see what was inside," Tom says.
+
+"Never touch this box again. Do you understand?" Mom says.
+
+"Yes, Mom. We understand," Lily says.
+
+Mom hugs them and takes them to the kitchen. She gives them some cookies and milk.
+
+"Repeat after me: I will not touch the dangerous box," she says.
+
+"I will not touch the dangerous box," Tom and Lily say.
+
+"Good. Now, go and play with your safe toys," Mom says.
+
+Tom and Lily nod and run to the living room. They play with their dolls and cars. They forget about the dangerous box. They are happy.
+Lily liked to play with her colorful toys in the bathtub. She had a duck, a fish, a boat and a ball. She made them splash and swim and float. She was very happy.
+
+But one day, she saw a new toy in the store. It was a big, shiny dolphin that could squirt water. Lily wanted it very much. She asked her mom to buy it for her. Her mom said no. She said Lily had enough toys already and she should be thankful for what she had.
+
+Lily was angry and sad. She threw a tantrum in the store. She cried and screamed and kicked. Her mom was very upset. She took Lily home and said she could not play in the bathtub for a week.
+
+Lily was sorry for what she did. She realized she had been greedy and rude. She missed her colorful toys and her fun in the bathtub. She wished she had listened to her mom.
+
+The next day, she went to her mom and said she was sorry. She said she loved her mom and her toys and she did not need the dolphin. Her mom hugged her and said she forgave her. She said she was proud of Lily for learning her lesson.
+
+She let Lily play in the bathtub again. Lily was very happy. She played with her duck, her fish, her boat and her ball. She made them splash and swim and float. She thanked her mom and her toys for making her happy. She learned to be happy with what she had.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big pile of leaves. They wanted to jump in it.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Ben said. "It looks fun!"
+
+They ran to the pile and jumped in. They laughed and threw leaves in the air. They felt something hard under the leaves. They dug it out. It was a skeleton.
+
+"Wow, what is this?" Lily asked. "It looks scary!"
+
+"It's a skeleton, Lily. It's what we have inside us. But this one has no skin or hair or eyes," Ben said. He knew a lot of things.
+
+"Where did it come from?" Lily wondered. "Did someone leave it here?"
+
+"Maybe it was a dinosaur. Or a pirate. Or a monster," Ben guessed. He liked to make up stories.
+
+They looked at the skeleton. It had a big head, a long spine, and four limbs. It also had an orange scarf around its neck.
+
+"Why does it have an orange scarf?" Lily asked. "It's not cold."
+
+"Maybe it was a gift. Or a prize. Or a disguise," Ben said. He liked to imagine.
+
+They decided to keep the scarf. They thought it would improve their outfits. They wrapped it around their necks and pretended to be spies. They left the skeleton in the pile of leaves. They hoped no one would find it. They had a secret.
+Sara and Ben are on a tour with their mom and dad. They see many pretty things, like big buildings, green parks, and colorful flowers. They also see many people, some with funny hats, some with big bags, and some with loud voices.
+
+"Look, Sara, a big bus!" Ben says, pointing at a yellow vehicle.
+
+"Can we ride it?" Sara asks.
+
+"Maybe later, sweetie," Mom says. "We have to follow the guide. He knows where to go."
+
+The guide is a man with a red shirt and a whistle. He talks a lot and shows them pictures. Sometimes he pauses and asks them questions, like "What is this?" or "Do you know what this means?" Sara and Ben try to answer, but they don't know all the words.
+
+"Can we have a snack?" Ben whispers to Dad.
+
+"Shh, not now, buddy," Dad says. "We have to listen. Maybe we can have a snack when the tour is over."
+
+Sara and Ben nod, but they are hungry and tired. They wish the tour was over soon. They want to ride the big bus, or play in the park, or pick some flowers. They hope the guide will pause and say "The end".
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play games. Today they want to decorate a cake. They have a big cake, some cream, some fruits and some candies.
+
+"Let's make the cake pretty and yummy!" Tom says.
+
+"Yes, let's do that!" Anna agrees.
+
+They take turns to put cream on the cake. They make swirls and dots and stars. Then they add some fruits. They have bananas, strawberries, grapes and oranges. They make a face with the fruits. The banana is the mouth, the strawberries are the eyes, the grapes are the hair and the orange is the nose.
+
+"Wow, the cake looks funny and happy!" Anna says.
+
+"Let's make it more fun!" Tom says. He takes some candies. They are red and round and spicy. He puts them on the cake. He makes a necklace, a hat, a belt and some earrings with the candies.
+
+"Look, the cake is dressed up!" Tom says.
+
+"Ooh, the cake is fancy!" Anna says.
+
+They are very proud of their cake. They want to eat it. But first they have to show it to their moms.
+
+"Mom, mom, look at our cake!" they shout.
+
+Their moms come and see the cake. They smile and clap.
+
+"What a beautiful and creative cake!" Tom's mom says.
+
+"What a colorful and tasty cake!" Anna's mom says.
+
+They cut the cake and give each child a slice. Tom and Anna take a big bite. They make a face.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow, the cake is spicy!" they cry.
+
+They spit out the candies. They drink some water. They look at each other and laugh.
+
+"Maybe we should not put spicy candies on the cake next time!" Tom says.
+
+"Maybe we should just eat the fruits and the cream!" Anna says.
+
+They agree and finish their cake. They are happy. They hug their moms and thank them. They say goodbye and promise to play again soon. They have a new game in mind. They want to decorate a pizza. But they will not use spicy candies. They will use cheese and ham and mushrooms and olives. They think the pizza will be yummy and not spicy. They can't wait to try it.
+Tim and Sam were best friends. They liked to play with trains. They had many trains of different colors and sizes. But their favorite train was the big red one. It could make steam and whistle. They called it Dependable.
+
+One day, they decided to take Dependable to the park. They wanted to show it to the other kids. They put it in a big box and carried it together. They were very happy and excited.
+
+But when they got to the park, they saw a big dog. The dog was barking and running towards them. Tim and Sam were scared. They dropped the box and ran away. The dog sniffed the box and saw Dependable. He thought it was a toy. He bit it and shook it. He broke it into pieces.
+
+Tim and Sam hid behind a tree. They saw what the dog did to Dependable. They felt very sad and angry. They wanted to get their train back. But they were too afraid of the dog.
+
+Then they saw a man. He was the owner of the dog. He saw the box and the broken train. He called the dog and scolded him. He picked up the pieces and walked towards Tim and Sam.
+
+"I'm sorry, boys," he said. "My dog didn't know it was your train. He thought it was a chew toy. He likes to play with things that make noise. He didn't mean to hurt it."
+
+Tim and Sam came out from behind the tree. They looked at the man and the pieces. They felt a little better. They knew the dog was not bad. He was just playful.
+
+"It's okay, mister," Tim said. "We know he didn't know. But we loved our train. It was our favorite. It was Dependable."
+
+The man nodded. He felt sorry for them. He had an idea.
+
+"I have something for you," he said. "It's in my car. Come with me."
+
+He led them to his car. He opened the trunk. He took out a big box. He opened it and showed them.
+
+It was a new train. It was bigger and shinier than Dependable. It could make steam and whistle. It had a remote control. It was amazing.
+
+Tim and Sam gasped. They couldn't believe it. They looked at the man with wide eyes.
+
+"This is for you," he said. "It's a gift. I hope you like it. It's also Dependable. But it's Dependable 2.0."
+
+Tim and Sam smiled. They thanked the man. They hugged him. They hugged the dog. They hugged each other. They were very happy and grateful.
+
+They took the new train to the park. They showed it to the other kids. They played with it. They had fun. They learned a lesson.
+
+They learned that sometimes bad things happen. But sometimes good things happen too. They learned that people can be kind and generous. They learned that friends can stick together. They learned that Dependable can have a new meaning.
+Lila wanted to improve her drawing of a sun. She asked her big brother Ben for help. Ben was helpful and kind. He showed her how to make a circle and some rays with a yellow crayon.
+
+"Like this, Lila. See? A sun is round and bright. It makes us warm and happy." Ben said.
+
+Lila tried to copy Ben's sun. She made a circle and some rays, but they were not very neat. She was not happy with her drawing.
+
+"Ben, my sun is not good. It is messy and ugly." Lila said.
+
+Ben hugged Lila and smiled. He said, "No, Lila, your sun is not ugly. It is beautiful and unique. It is your sun. You made it with your own hands. You can improve it if you want, but I like it the way it is."
+
+Lila looked at her sun again. She saw that it had different shapes and sizes of rays. She saw that it had some spots and lines. She saw that it was different from Ben's sun, but it was also special. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good brother. I like my sun too. It is my sun."
+Tom and Lily were sheep who lived on a big farm. They liked to eat grass, play with their friends and follow the farmer. Sometimes, the farmer would cut their wool and make it into warm clothes. Tom and Lily did not mind, because they felt lighter and cooler after.
+
+One day, the farmer said he had to leave for a while. He asked his son, Ben, to take care of the sheep. Ben was a nice boy, but he did not know much about sheep. He forgot to feed them, to give them water and to close the gate at night.
+
+Tom and Lily were very hungry, thirsty and tired. They saw the gate was open and decided to go out and look for food. They walked and walked until they found a green field with lots of grass and flowers. They ate and drank and felt much better.
+
+"Let's stay here for a while," Tom said. "It's so nice and quiet."
+
+"But what if the farmer comes back and looks for us?" Lily asked. "He might be worried and sad."
+
+"Don't worry, he won't miss us," Tom said. "He has many other sheep. And we can always go back later."
+
+Lily was not sure, but she followed Tom. They lay down on the soft grass and fell asleep.
+
+They did not hear the big dog that came from the other side of the field. He smelled the sheep and ran towards them. He barked and growled and bit their wool. Tom and Lily woke up and tried to run away, but they were too tired and scared. They wished they had never left the farm. They wished the farmer was there to save them.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they visit Ben's grandma. She lives in a big house with a garden.
+
+"Hello, Lily and Ben," grandma says. "Do you want some cookies?"
+
+"Yes, please," Lily and Ben say. They follow grandma to the kitchen. They see a big dog under the table. The dog is black and white. He has a long tail.
+
+"Who is that?" Lily asks.
+
+"That is Spot," grandma says. "He is my dog. He is very friendly. Do you want to pet him?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They go under the table. They pet Spot. He wags his tail. He licks their faces.
+
+"Spot likes you," grandma says. "He is a good dog."
+
+Lily and Ben giggle. They like Spot. They play with him. They throw a ball. He runs and brings it back.
+
+"Can we take Spot home?" Ben asks.
+
+"No, you can't," grandma says. "Spot is my dog. He lives here with me. He would be sad if you take him away."
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They want to play with Spot more. They do not understand why they can't take him home.
+
+"Maybe you can visit again," grandma says. "Then you can play with Spot again. He will be happy to see you."
+
+Lily and Ben smile. They hug grandma. They hug Spot. They say goodbye.
+
+"Thank you for the cookies and the dog," Lily says.
+
+"You're welcome, my dears," grandma says. "You are very polite. Come back soon."
+
+Lily and Ben wave. They go home with their mom. They talk about Spot. They are ignorant. They do not know that dogs are not toys. They do not know that dogs have feelings. They do not know that dogs need a home. They are only three years old. They have a lot to learn.
+Lily and Sam are friends. They like to play games in the park. Today they play tag. Lily is it. She runs after Sam. Sam is fast. He laughs and says, "You can't catch me!"
+
+Lily tries hard. She hurries and hurries. She is almost near Sam. But then she hears a loud sound. It is her mom. She calls, "Lily, it's time to go home! We have to eat dinner!"
+
+Lily stops. She is hungry. She wants to eat. But she also wants to play. She looks at Sam. He looks at her. He says, "Come on, Lily. One more round. Please!"
+
+Lily thinks. She likes Sam. She likes tag. But she also likes mom. She likes dinner. She says, "Sorry, Sam. I have to go. Maybe we can play again tomorrow."
+
+Sam nods. He says, "Okay, Lily. Bye-bye. See you tomorrow."
+
+Lily waves. She says, "Bye-bye, Sam. See you tomorrow."
+
+She runs to her mom. She hugs her. She says, "I had fun, mom. But I'm hungry. What's for dinner?"
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "We have pizza, Lily. Your favorite."
+
+Lily cheers. She says, "Yay! Pizza! I love pizza!"
+
+Mom and Lily walk home. They are happy. They are hungry. They are ready to eat.
+Tom was a little boy who liked to play with his toys. He had a lot of cars, trains, and planes that he zoomed around the floor. He also had a cat named Fluffy, who was his best friend. Fluffy liked to nap on Tom's bed, chase mice, and drink milk.
+
+One day, Tom's mom told him to come to the kitchen for lunch. She had made him a sandwich and some juice. Tom was hungry, but he wanted to play a little more. He said, "Mom, can I play for five more minutes?" Mom said, "No, Tom, you need to eat now. Your food will get cold and your juice will get warm. Come now, or you will have no lunch."
+
+Tom did not listen to his mom. He said, "OK, OK, I will come soon." But he did not come soon. He played and played, and forgot about his lunch. He also forgot about Fluffy, who was thirsty. Fluffy saw Tom's juice on the table, and thought it was milk. He jumped on the table, and licked the juice. But the juice was not milk. It was grape juice, and it was bad for cats. Fluffy felt sick, and fell off the table. He did not move.
+
+Tom heard a thud, and looked at the table. He saw Fluffy on the floor, and ran to him. He said, "Fluffy, Fluffy, are you OK?" But Fluffy did not answer. He did not purr, or meow, or blink. He was dead. Tom cried, and cried, and cried. He said, "I'm sorry, Fluffy, I'm sorry. I should have come to lunch. I should have given you milk. I love you, Fluffy, I love you."
+
+Mom heard Tom's cries, and came to the living room. She saw Fluffy on the floor, and Tom on his knees. She hugged Tom, and said, "I'm sorry, Tom, I'm sorry. Fluffy is gone. He drank something bad, and it hurt him. He was a good cat, and he loved you too."
+
+Tom and Mom buried Fluffy in the backyard, and put a stone with his name on it. Tom said, "Goodbye, Fluffy, goodbye. You were my best friend. I will miss you, Fluffy, I will miss you." Mom said, "Goodbye, Fluffy, goodbye. You were a sweet cat. We will remember you, Fluffy, we will remember you."
+
+The moral of the story is: Listen to your mom, and don't leave your food or drink where your pet can get it. It could be dangerous for them, and you could lose them forever.

+
+When the waffle is ready, her mom takes it out and puts it on a plate. Lily sees that the waffle is pink. She gasps and says, "Wow! A pink waffle! How did you do that?"
+
+Her mom smiles and says, "I added some beet juice to the batter. It makes the waffle pink and healthy. Do you like it?"
+
+Lily says, "Yes, I like it! It is pretty and tasty. Can I have another one?"

+
+"Let's play a game," Sara says. "I am a princess and you are a prince. We need to find a castle."
+
+"OK," Tom says. "Where is the castle?"
+
+Sara looks around and sees a big box in the corner. It has a picture of a TV on it. "There it is!" she says. "The box is the castle. Come on!"
+
+They run to the box and try to open it. It is very hard and heavy. They push and pull, but they cannot open it. They are sad and tired.
+
+"Maybe we need a key," Tom says.
+
+"Or a magic word," Sara says.
+
+They think of different words and say them out loud. "Please, open!" "Abracadabra, open!" "Banana, open!" Nothing works.
+
+They are about to give up, when they hear a voice from inside the box. "Hello, who is there?"
+
+They are surprised and scared. Who is in the box? Is it a monster? A friend? A TV?
+
+"Hello, we are Sara and Tom," Sara says. "We are playing a game. We want to open the box."
+
+"I can help you," the voice says. "But you need to do something for me first."
+
+"What do we need to do?" Tom asks.
+
+"You need to give me a hug," the voice says.
+
+"A hug?" Sara and Tom say. They look at each other and shrug. They like hugs. They are soft and warm and nice.
+
+"OK, we will give you a hug," Sara says. "But then you have to open the box."
+
+"Deal," the voice says.
+
+Sara and Tom go to the side of the box and see a small hole. They put their arms through the hole and feel something furry and fluffy. They hug it and it hugs them back. It feels good.
+
+"Thank you," the voice says. "You are very kind. Now I will open the box for you."
+
+The box makes a loud noise and then opens. Sara and Tom see a big teddy bear with a bow and a smile. It is the voice. It is a gift from their mom and dad.
+
+"Surprise!" the teddy bear says. "I am your new friend. What are your names?"
+
+"Sara and Tom," they say.
+
+"Nice to meet you, Sara and Tom," the teddy bear says. "Do you want to play with me?"

+
+They hug the teddy bear again and take it to the living room. They play with their toys and their new friend. They are happy and grateful. They have found their castle.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to look at the sky and see the clouds. They saw many shapes in the clouds. They saw a cat, a fish, a car and a star.
+
+"Look, Ben, that cloud looks like a seat!" Sara said. She pointed at a big, fluffy cloud.
+
+"Wow, you are right, Sara. It does look like a seat. A very big and soft seat. Do you think we can sit on it?" Ben asked.
+
+Sara laughed. "No, silly, we can't sit on the cloud. It is too high and too far. And we would fall down if we tried. Clouds are not for sitting. They are for watching and dreaming."
+
+Ben nodded. He agreed with Sara. He thought clouds were very pretty and fun. He liked to watch and dream with Sara. They were good friends. They kept playing and looking at the clouds until it was time to go home.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to look at the stars at night. They had a big book with pictures of the stars and planets. They wanted to learn more about the universe.
+
+One night, they asked their mom if they could stay up late and watch the stars. Their mom said yes, but they had to wear warm clothes and be quiet. She gave them a blanket and a flashlight and took them to the backyard.
+
+Tom and Lily spread the blanket on the grass and lay down. They turned on the flashlight and opened the book. They tried to find the stars and planets that matched the pictures.
+
+"Look, Lily, that's the moon!" Tom said, pointing with his finger.
+
+"I know, Tom, the moon is big and bright," Lily said.
+
+"And that's Mars, the red planet," Tom said, finding another picture.
+
+"Wow, Mars is nice," Lily said.
+
+They kept looking and talking, but soon they got cold and sleepy. They wrapped themselves in the blanket and cuddled.
+
+"Mom, can we go inside now?" Tom asked, yawning.
+
+"Me too, I'm tired," Lily said, rubbing her eyes.
+
+Their mom heard them and came to the backyard. She smiled and picked them up.
+
+"Did you have fun, my little explorers?" she asked, carrying them to the house.
+
+"Yes, mom, we saw the universe!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+"That's wonderful, my loves, but now it's time for bed," their mom said, tucking them in.
+
+"Good night, mom, we love you," Tom and Lily said.
+
+"Good night, my stars, I love you too," their mom said, kissing them.
+

+Tom and Anna like to eat blueberries. They are tasty and sweet. One day, they go to the farm with Mom and Dad. They see many blueberry bushes. Mom and Dad give them baskets to pick the blueberries.
+
+"Look, Tom, I found a big one!" Anna says. She shows Tom a blueberry as big as her thumb.
+
+"Wow, that's a nice one, Anna. Can I have it?" Tom asks.
+
+"No, it's mine. You can find your own," Anna says. She puts the blueberry in her basket.
+
+Tom feels sad. He wants a big blueberry too. He looks around and sees a blueberry that is even bigger than Anna's. He reaches for it, but it is too high. He jumps and jumps, but he cannot get it.
+
+"Help me, Anna. I want that blueberry," Tom says.
+
+Anna looks at Tom. She sees the blueberry he wants. She thinks it is bigger and tastier than hers. She feels greedy. She does not want to help Tom.
+
+"Sorry, Tom. I can't help you. I have to pick more blueberries for myself," Anna says. She turns away and walks to another bush.
+
+Tom feels angry. He thinks Anna is mean. He sees a pair of scissors on the ground. He picks them up and runs to Anna's basket. He cuts all the blueberries in half. He thinks that will teach Anna a lesson.
+
+"Tom, what are you doing?" Anna shouts. She sees Tom cutting her blueberries. She runs to him and tries to stop him.
+
+"Stop, Tom, stop! You are ruining my blueberries!" Anna cries.
+
+Mom and Dad hear Anna and Tom. They come to see what is wrong. They see the scissors and the cut blueberries. They are shocked and angry.
+
+"Tom, Anna, what have you done? Why did you cut the blueberries? That is very naughty and wasteful. You should not play with scissors. You could hurt yourself or someone else. And you should not be selfish and greedy. You should share and help each other. You have to apologize and make up," Mom and Dad say.
+
+Tom and Anna feel ashamed. They know they did something bad. They say sorry to each other and hug. They promise to be nice and share. They give some of their blueberries to Mom and Dad. They eat the rest of the blueberries together. They are still tasty, even if they are cut. They learn a lesson. They are happy again.
+Lily and Max were adventurous twins who liked to play in the old barn. They pretended to be explorers, looking for treasure and secrets. One day, they found a big cobweb in a dark corner. It was shiny and sticky, and had many flies and spiders on it.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Max said. "It's like a giant net. Maybe there is something hidden behind it."
+
+"Let's find out!" Lily said. She grabbed a stick and poked the cobweb. The spiders ran away, but the flies buzzed angrily. The cobweb shook and tore, and something fell out.
+
+It was a shiny metal box, with a lock and a key. Lily and Max gasped. They had found a treasure!
+
+"Open it, open it!" Lily said. She took the key and put it in the lock. She turned it and heard a click. She lifted the lid and saw what was inside.
+
+It was a bunch of old coins, some jewels, and a letter. Lily and Max could not read the letter, but they liked the coins and jewels. They sparkled and clinked in their hands.
+
+"We are rich!" Max said. "We can buy anything we want!"
+
+"Or we can keep them as a secret," Lily said. "And play with them in the barn. They are our treasure now."
+
+They agreed to keep the treasure in the barn, and hide it under some hay. They put the letter back in the box, and closed the lid. They covered the box with the cobweb, and hoped the spiders would come back.
+
+They ran out of the barn, happy and excited. They had had the most adventurous play ever. They could not wait to come back and play with their treasure again.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were in a castle. Tom was the king and Lily was the queen. They had a big box that was their throne. They had a blanket that was their cape. They had a stick that was their scepter.
+
+"King Tom, I am hungry," said Queen Lily. "Can we have some cream?"
+
+"Of course, my queen," said King Tom. "I will ask the cook to bring us some cream. You wait here and I will be back soon."
+
+King Tom went to the kitchen. He saw a bowl of cream on the table. It was for the cat, but he did not know that. He took a spoon and filled it with cream. He ran back to the garden.
+
+"Here you are, my queen," he said. "Some cream for you. It is very fair and sweet."
+
+"Thank you, my king," said Queen Lily. She took the spoon and tasted the cream. She made a face. It was not fair and sweet. It was sour and bitter. She spit it out.
+
+"Yuck! This is not cream. This is bad. What did you give me?" she said.
+
+King Tom tasted the cream. He also made a face. He spit it out.
+
+"Yuck! You are right. This is not cream. This is awful. I am sorry, my queen. I think I took the wrong bowl. Maybe this is for the cat."
+
+They heard a meow. They looked and saw the cat. The cat was angry. It saw its bowl was empty. It jumped on the box and scratched King Tom and Queen Lily.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" they cried. "Go away, cat. Leave us alone."
+
+They ran away from the cat. They left the box, the blanket and the stick. They went inside the house. They did not want to pretend they were in a castle anymore. They wanted to have some real cream. And some cookies. And some band-aids.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a big ball and a small car. They take turns to kick the ball and drive the car.

+
+"No, it's mine!" Ben says.
+
+They pull the star. They fight. They are angry. They forget to share.
+
+A big voice booms. It is the park keeper. He is not happy. He sees Lily and Ben fighting. He sees the candy land. He knows it is not for playing. It is for a party.
+
+"Stop!" he says. "This is not your land. This is for the birthday girl. You are ruining her cake. Go away!"
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They drop the star. They run away. They are sorry. They say sorry to the park keeper. They say sorry to the birthday girl. They say sorry to each other.

+
+Tom and Sam are confused. They look at the dog. They see that it is not green. It is brown. They see that it is not hairy. It is wet.
+
+They remember that they played with paint in the park. They painted the dog green. They forgot to wash it. They laugh.
+
+"Sorry, doggy," Tom says.
+
+"Sorry, doggy," Sam says.
+
+The dog licks their faces. It is happy.
+
+Mom says, "It's okay, boys. But next time, don't paint the dog. And don't run away from it. It just wants to play with you."
+
+Tom and Sam nod. They hug the dog. They say, "We like you, doggy."
+
+Mom says, "Why don't you give the dog a bath? Then we can have some cookies."
+
+Tom and Sam say, "Yes, Mom."
+
+They take the dog to the bathroom. They wash the paint off. They dry the dog. They give it a treat.

+
+"Maybe. What do you wish for, Tim?"
+
+Tim thinks for a moment. He has many things he likes, but he also wants something new.
+
+"I wish for a big carrot, Sue. A big, juicy, orange carrot. What do you wish for?"
+
+Sue smiles. She also likes carrots, but she has another wish in her heart.
+
+"I wish for a hug, Tim. A big, warm, fuzzy hug. You are my best friend."
+
+Tim and Sue hop closer to each other. They look at the bright star and make their wishes. Then they hug each other and feel happy. They hop back to their home and snuggle in their bed. They dream of carrots and hugs and stars.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to skip and jump and run. They saw a big hill and wanted to climb it. They ran to the hill and started to go up.
+
+"Look, Ben, I can see our house from here!" Anna said. She pointed to a small house in the distant. "And I can see the sun. It is very bright and yellow."
+
+Ben looked too. He saw the house and the sun. He also saw something else. He saw a big cloud. It was dark and gray. It was coming closer and closer.
+
+"Anna, we have to go home. There is a storm coming. It will rain soon." Ben said. He was scared of the thunder and the lightning.
+
+Anna looked at the cloud. She did not like the storm either. She wanted to go home and have dinner. She was hungry and cold.
+
+"OK, Ben, let's go home. Maybe Mommy will make us soup and bread. That is my favorite dinner." Anna said. She took Ben's hand and they skipped down the hill. They ran to their house and knocked on the door. Mommy opened it and hugged them.

+
+Lily asks Tom, "Can I borrow your green pencil, please?" Tom says, "No, you can't. It is my pencil. You have your own pencil. Use your regular pencil." Lily feels sad. She says, "But I want to draw a flower. Flowers are green. My regular pencil is not green. Please, Tom, let me borrow your green pencil for a little bit."
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He likes Lily. He does not want to make her sad. He says, "Okay, Lily, you can borrow my green pencil. But only for a little bit. And you have to give it back to me when you are done. Promise?" Lily smiles. She says, "Thank you, Tom. I promise. I will give it back to you when I am done."
+
+Lily takes Tom's green pencil. She draws a beautiful flower next to her cat. She uses the green pencil for the stem and the leaves. She uses her regular pencil for the petals.

+Ben and Lily were playing in the sand. They liked to make things with the sand. They made a big castle with towers and walls. They made a palm tree with a stick and some leaves. They made a moat with water from a bucket.
+
+"Look at our sand castle!" Ben said. "It is the best castle ever!"
+
+Lily nodded. She was proud of their work. They put some shells and stones on the castle to make it look nice.
+
+But then a big boy came. He was older and taller than Ben and Lily. He had a mean face and a loud voice. He saw the sand castle and the palm tree. He did not like them.
+
+"What is this?" he said. "This is a stupid castle. And this is a stupid tree. You are ignorant kids. You don't know how to make anything good."
+
+He kicked the sand castle and the palm tree. He broke them into pieces. He laughed and ran away.
+
+Ben and Lily were sad and angry. They cried and shouted.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" they said. "You are a bad boy. You are ignorant. You don't know how to be nice. You ruined our sand castle and our palm tree. Go away!"
+
+They hugged each other and tried to fix their sand castle and their palm tree. They hoped the big boy would not come back. They wished he would learn how to be kind and share.
+One day, a naughty boy named Tom wanted to have some fun. He saw a big basket of apples on a cart near his house. He thought it would be funny to drop the apples on the people in the village. He climbed on the cart and grabbed an apple.
+
+"Hey, Tom, what are you doing?" his friend Lily asked. She was walking by with her dog.
+
+"I'm going to drop apples on the people. It will be fun!" Tom said with a grin.
+
+"No, Tom, that's not fun. That's mean. The people need the apples to eat. And the farmer worked hard to grow them. You should not drop them." Lily said.
+
+But Tom did not listen. He threw an apple at a man who was carrying a basket of bread. The apple hit the man on the head and made him drop the bread. The man was angry and shouted at Tom.
+
+"Tom, you naughty boy! How dare you drop an apple on me! You ruined my bread! Go away before I tell your mother!" the man said.
+
+Tom was scared and ran away. He saw another apple and threw it at a woman who was knitting a scarf. The apple hit the woman on the hand and made her drop the scarf. The woman was sad and cried.
+
+"Tom, you naughty boy! How dare you drop an apple on me! You ruined my scarf! It took me a long time to make it. Go away before I tell your father!" the woman said.
+
+Tom was sorry and ran away. He saw one more apple and threw it at a girl who was playing with a doll. The apple hit the girl on the face and made her drop the doll. The girl was hurt and screamed.
+
+"Tom, you naughty boy! How dare you drop an apple on me! You hurt me and my doll! Go away before I tell your teacher!" the girl said.
+
+Tom was ashamed and ran away. He had no more apples to throw. He realized he had been very naughty and had made a lot of people angry, sad and hurt. He wished he had not dropped the apples. He wished he had listened to Lily. He wished he had been nice.
+
+He went back to the cart and saw the farmer. The farmer was looking for his apples. He saw Tom and frowned.
+
+"Tom, you naughty boy! Did you drop my apples on the people? Do you know how much trouble you caused? You owe me an apology and a help. Come with me and pick up the apples. And then you have to say sorry to the people. And then you have to go home and think about what you did." the farmer said.
+
+Tom nodded and followed the farmer. He picked up the apples and said sorry to the people. He went home and thought about what he did. He decided he would never drop apples on the people again. He decided he would be a good boy from now on. He learned his lesson.
+Once upon a time there was a little girl called Betty. She was very happy and loved to play. One day, she wanted to explore a new place, so she decided to go upstairs. She took her toy ball and rolled it up the stairs, one step at a time. It was a slow process, but eventually she made it to the top. 
+
+At the top of the stairs she found a whole new world. There were so many interesting things to explore. She rolled her ball around and around the room, and soon found her favourite spot. Then she started to play with her ball. She rolled it around the room and had lots of fun. 
+
+Eventually, it was time to go downstairs. Betty was a bit sad to leave, but she knew she would come back again soon. She rolled her ball back down the stairs, one step at a time. It was slow, but she made it back down safely. Then she ran outside to play in the sunshine. 
+
+The End
+Once upon a time, there was a small girl who liked to play all day. One day, when she was playing outside she noticed a skull in the grass beside her. As she looked closer, she saw that it was waving at her.
+
+"Hello," the girl said. "What are you doing here?"
+
+The skull answered, “I’m an old friend and I’ve come to help. I have something useful to show you.â€
+
+The skull then showed the girl a path that she had never seen before. She was so excited and started running down the path. As she ran she waved at the skull to thank it for its help.
+
+The girl knew that this path would help her have an adventure, and every time she remembered the skull and the wave that it gave her, she smiled.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Abigail. She loved animals and wanted to go on a safari. One day, Abigail asked her mom if she could go on a safari. Her mom said yes, and lent Abigail some binoculars so that she could get a good view of the animals.
+
+When Abigail got to the safari, she was amazed by all of the different animals. She saw zebras, lions and giraffes. She watched them eat, play and run. Abigail loved watching them, but she didn't like how some of the other visitors were so rude. They shouted and scared the animals away.
+
+Abigail knew she had to do something. She asked all of the visitors to be quiet and polite. Everyone agreed, and soon the animals came back out of hiding. Abigail smiled and thanked everyone for cooperating. Everyone was happy and the day ended well.
