They put on their coats and hats and went to the shop. They held hands and looked at the things in the window. + +"Look, Lily, a pretty flower!" Tom said. He pointed to a pink rose in a vase. + +"I like it, Tom. But it is too big. We need a small gift," Lily said. She saw a shiny necklace with a heart. "How about this?" + +Tom nodded. He liked the necklace too. They went inside the shop and asked the lady how much it was. The lady smiled and said it was five coins. + +"Perfect! We have five coins!" Tom said.

You are very kind." + +The bird smiled. She threw the fruit to the fox. The fox opened his mouth and caught it. He bit the fruit. But it was not yummy. It was bitter. It made his mouth hurt. He spat it out. He said, "Yuck! What is this? This is not a fruit. This is a lemon. You tricked me, bird. You are not kind. You are mean." + +The bird laughed. She said, "Ha ha, fox. You are not smart. You are foolish. You should not trust me. I am not your friend. I am your enemy. These lemons are not for eating. They are for making juice. Goodbye, fox. Have a bitter day." + +She flew away. The fox was sad and mad. He had no fruit. He had no friend. He had a bitter taste in his mouth. He learned a lesson. He should not be greedy and lie.

She bends down and smells it. "It is red and white. It smells sweet." + +Ben holds the map to his eyes. "We are on Rose Island. It is a beautiful place. But we have to be careful. There might be dangers." + +Lily stands up and nods. She holds the microphone to her mouth. "Travelers, be alert. There might be dangers on Rose Island. But we are brave. We can handle anything." + +They keep walking. They see a bug. It is black and shiny. It has six legs and two antennas. It is crawling on a leaf. + +"Look, a bug!" Ben says. He shines the flashlight on it. "It is small and shiny. It is moving fast." + +Lily holds the microphone to her mouth. "Hello, bug! We are travelers. We come in peace. Do you want to be our friend?" + +The bug looks at them and makes a noise. It sounds like a beep. + +Lily and Ben smile. They think the bug is talking to them. They think the bug is harmless.

Sue said, making her mouse toy run away. "You are a mean lion and I am a scared mouse!" + +Tom chased Sue around the couch, laughing and growling. He liked to play with Sue, even if she was his little sister. He did not want to hurt her, just to tease her. + +But then, Mom came into the living room and saw the mess they had made. Toys were spread all over the floor and the couch. Mom did not look happy. She looked angry. + +"Tom and Sue, what are you doing?" Mom said, raising her voice.

They see the broken flute and the crying children. They hug them and say, "It's okay. It was an accident. You did not mean to hurt each other. Accidents happen sometimes. But you have to be careful and watch where you are going. And you have to share the slide with others. Can you say sorry to each other?" + +Anna and Ben look at each other. They feel sorry. They say, "Sorry." They hug each other. They feel better. Mom and dad say, "That's good. You are good friends. You can play together. But you have to leave the flute at home.

You made a big mess on the wall. You cannot draw on the wall. That is bad. You have to clean it now." + +Mark was sad. He did not want to clean the wall. He liked his lion. He said, "But mom, I made a lion. It is a nice lion. It is not a mess. Can I keep it?" + +His mom said, "No, Mark. You cannot keep it. The wall is not for drawing. You have to use paper. Paper is for drawing. The wall is for looking. Come, I will help you clean the wall. Then you can draw a new lion on paper. And you can hang it on the wall. That is good." + +Mark and his mom cleaned the wall. It was hard work. The colors were loud and did not want to go away. But they did not give up. They used water and soap and a cloth. They made the wall white again. Then Mark drew a new lion on paper. He used his yellow and brown colors again. He made the lion big and strong.

One cold day, they saw their mom make a big pot of cocoa in the kitchen. They ran to the table and asked for a cup. + +"Wait a minute, my sweeties," mom said. "The cocoa is very hot. You need to let it cool down a bit. And don't forget to say thank you." + +Lily and Max nodded and waited patiently. They smelled the cocoa and it made them happy. They saw that mom added some cream and sugar to their cups, but not to hers. Mom liked her cocoa dark and bitter. + +"Can we taste your cocoa, mom?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, you can try a sip, but you might not like it," mom said. "It is very different from yours." + +Lily and Max each took a sip from mom's cup. They made a face and spit it out. It was too dark and too bitter for them. + +"Yuck! How can you drink that, mom?" Max said. + +"I like it because it is strong and rich," mom said. "But you don't have to like the same things as me. Everyone has different tastes and preferences. That's what makes us unique and special." + +Lily and Max understood. They hugged mom and thanked her for the cocoa. They drank their own cups and enjoyed them. They learned that it is good to try new things, but also to respect and appreciate the differences. +Lily and Ben are twins.

They run around the room and pretend to fly and save the world. They make noises like "Zoom!" and "Pow!" and "Whoosh!" + +Mom hears them and smiles. She goes to their room and knocks on the door. "What are you two doing?" she asks. + +"We are superheroes, Mom!" Lily says. "We use the bathrobe as a cape!" + +Mom laughs. "That's very creative of you," she says. "But it's almost time for dinner.

Ben asks. "Please?" + +Mom thinks for a moment. She sees how happy they are. She nods. "OK, you can keep the bathrobe. But only for playing. You still have to wear your normal clothes for dinner and bed. Deal?" + +Lily and Ben cheer. "Deal!" they say. They hug Mom and thank her. They take off the bathrobe and put it on their bed.

He liked it very much, so he made a request to the pond's owner. + +The owner said no in a very harsh voice. Fluffy didn't know why he couldn't have the object, so he stayed by the pond, hoping the owner would change his mind. But the owner only said, "No, you can't have it." + +Fluffy sulked away. He wanted the shiny object so much, but the owner was too harsh. Feeling sad, he wandered around the garden until he found a nice stick to play with instead. + +And that's how Fluffy found joy again, without the shiny object in the pond. +Once upon a time, there was a careful sheep. The sheep liked to polish things, so it always went around polishing all sorts of things. One day, it found a shiny red apple! The sheep was so excited and began to carefully polish it.

He opened the door and found a little puppy inside! The puppy was scared, so the security guard gave him a big hug. Then he put the puppy outside and closed the door. Everyone was happy that the delicate door was back to normal! +Once upon a time, there was an ancient tree in the forest. The tree was so old it had been there forever. A lot of animals lived in the tree, including a bird and many bugs. + +One day, the bird noticed a person walking around the forest. The person was looking for a place to rest his head. The bird had a great idea and he flew back to the old tree to recommend it for the person. + +The bird flew back to the person and pointed to the tree. He told the person it would be a great place for him to sleep. The person agreed and he climbed up the old tree and rested his head.

Mia was getting excited to eat. + +Mommy said it was almost time to serve, so Mia had to stay calm until everyone was at the table. They all said "Bon Appetite!" and enjoyed their food. Dinner was quick, but very tasty. Mia was so proud of what she and her mommy had prepared. +Joey was very nervous. He had done something wrong, and was scared of what mommy was going to say. When he went into the living room, mommy was waiting for him in her bathrobe. She looked very serious. But then Joey's mommy smiled. She said, "it's okay, you don't have to be scared. I forgive you." Joey was so happy! He hugged his mommy, and they both laughed. He knew that even when he did something wrong, mommy still loved him. He would never forget how much mommy forgave him. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Sally. She was playing in her backyard when she noticed something strange. She saw something zip around in the air. Sally was curious and went over to investigate. + +It was a cardboard box that was flying through the sky. Sally didn't understand how it was doing that. She asked her mom about it and her mom said it was the wind. + +Sally was so excited that she had found something so amazing! She wanted to zip around in the box, but her mom said no. She explained that it could be dangerous, so instead she found some ignorant old cardboard boxes and brought them inside to play with. + +Sally was very happy. She went outside and threw the box in the air. As it floated and zipped around, Sally laughed and clapped with joy. + +Now whenever Sally finds an old cardboard box, she'll remember the day she saw the box zip in the air and it will make her happy. +Once upon a time there was a duck.

It's so bright," said Lucy. + +As Lucy looked at the sun, something else caught her eye. It was a pile of waste next to the swings. It was made up of plastic bags and paper. + +"What's that?" asked Lucy. + +"That's waste," said her mummy. "It's important that we take care of the park and show it some respect. We should always put our rubbish in the bin." + +The next day, Lucy went back to the park. She had brought her own rubbish bag. She made sure to pick up any waste she saw and put it into the bin.

But remember, I asked nicely.†+ +Molly realized how important it was to give respect when asking for something, and that day she learned a valuable lesson.

He was so angry he just kept standing up and walking around. + +He looked around and saw another man near him. He yelled at the man and told him to lie down. The other man was scared and he lay down right away. + +The angry man didn't stop. He kept walking around and pointing his gun at everyone. He wanted them all to lie down. Everyone was too scared to move. No one wanted the gun pointed at them. + +Finally, the angry man was so tired he dropped the gun and lay down himself. Everyone around him was relieved. The man was too tired to be angry anymore. Finally, everyone could stand up and walk around without fear. +Kenny and Samuel were best friends. Each day, Kenny would bring an ice cream cone to school, and the two would share it. One day Kenny had an extra special treat. He brought a big chocolate bar! Kenny was so glad that he was able to surprise his best friend. + +Kenny said "Let's put it on the sidewalk and watch it melt." + +Samuel laughed and agreed. They put the chocolate bar on the warm sidewalk, and waited. Soon the chocolate began to melt! + +Kenny smiled and said, "Look, the result is a chocolate lake!" + +The two friends laughed together and peered into the puddle of delicious chocolate. They were both so glad that their small experiment had worked out in the end. +Once there was a little girl who lived with her parents. She loved to play and laugh in her backyard. But sometimes, she began to worry. One day, her mom told her not to worry. + +"Mom, why can't I worry?" asked the little girl. + +"Well, worrying never solves anything. Let's go watch some TV," her mom replied. + +The little girl was excited to watch the TV and forgot all about worrying. The TV showed colors and funny shapes and animals - the little girl laughed and laughed. + +But then the TV went empty. + +"What happened, Mom?" asked the little girl, starting to worry again. + +"Oh, it's alright sweetie. The TV will come back on soon. Don't worry! Let's go play outside," her Mom said. + +So the little girl ran outside and played with her friends, not worrying anymore. +Once there was a wise old bear. He lived in a deep forest and liked to take long walks in the morning. One day he was feeling very hungry and he stopped to look for some food. He looked around for quite a long time but he couldn't find anything. He started to frown because he was so hungry. + +Then a tiny little chipmunk came along. She had a nut in her paw and she offered it to the bear. The bear's face lit up and he gladly took the nut from her. He said thank you and the chipmunk went on her way. + +The bear ate the nut and then smiled. He realized how lucky he was to have found some food and he was grateful to the chipmunk for being so generous. He knew he must use his wisdom to help the animals of the forest whenever he could. From then on, he never frowned when he was looking for food. +Once upon a time there was a humble motorcycle. He was so humble that he never looked anyone in the eye. Every day he would make the same journey across the field. He would go so fast that the wind would blow through his hair and it would feel sharp against his face. + +One day, something magical happened. A little child appeared out of nowhere and asked to ride the humble motorcycle. The child was so small that he fit perfectly on the motorcycle. The child grabbed onto the handlebars and the motorcycle suddenly felt very powerful. + +The child and the humble motorcycle raced across the field together. The wind blew sharp against their faces, but it felt like the most magical journey. Together, the child and the motorcycle enjoyed their adventures day after day. +Once upon a time, a little girl got an urge to run. She had a real long run in her mind. So, she put on her shoes and ran and ran until she couldn't run no more. She ran to the park and ran down the paths, through the trees, and over the grass. She even ran so fast she ran straight into a big puddle! She laughed and ran some more, feeling the wind blowing in her face and she felt so happy. Finally, when she was done, she was tired and out of breath, but she felt so alive and happy! The long run was over, and she felt so good! +John was walking down the street when he suddenly noticed a small figure appear from behind a tree. He squinted to get a better look and he couldn't believe his eyes – it was a monkey! The monkey was carrying a modest calendar and he seemed to be in a rush. Noticing John, he quickly jumped onto a nearby roof and started to run away. + +John shouted: "Hey! Stop! You stole that calendar!" + +The monkey paused for a moment and then turned around and replied: "No, I didn't steal it!" + +John was taken aback and he started walking closer to the monkey. The monkey then said: "I found it on the ground, honest!" + +John knew the monkey was telling the truth, so he smiled and nodded. He said: "That's okay then. You can keep it. Have fun with it." + +The monkey's eyes lit up as he smiled and said: "Thank you!" He then took off, calendar safely nestled in his arms. + +John watched the monkey go with a smile on his face, grateful that the monkey had been so honest. +Anna liked to organize her toys. She had a big box with many small boxes inside. Each small box had a label with a picture of what was inside. Anna had boxes for dolls, cars, blocks, books, and more. She liked to put each toy in the right box after she played with it. + +One day, Anna's friend Lily came to play. Lily saw Anna's big box and wanted to see what was inside. She opened the small boxes and took out the toys. She mixed them up and made a big mess. Anna was not happy. She said to Lily, "Lily, why did you do that? I like to organize my toys. Now they are all mixed up and I have to sort them again." + +Lily said, "I'm sorry, Anna. I just wanted to see your toys. They are so beautiful. You have so many different kinds. Can we play with them together?" + +Anna thought for a moment. She was still a little mad, but she also liked Lily. She said, "Okay, Lily. We can play with them together. But you have to help me organize them again when we are done. Do you know how to do that?" + +Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, Anna. I can help you. You can show me how to do it. How do you know where to put each toy?" + +Anna smiled. She said, "I use the labels. They have pictures of the toys. See, this box has a picture of a doll. That means it is for dolls. And this box has a picture of a car. That means it is for cars. And so on. We have to match the toys with the pictures. And we have to measure them too. Some toys are big and some are small. We have to use this ruler. It has inches. Do you know what inches are?" + +Lily shook her head. She said, "No, Anna. What are inches?" + +Anna explained, "Inches are a way to measure how long or how wide something is. See, this ruler has marks. Each mark is one inch. You can count them. One, two, three, and so on. If a toy is longer than one inch, we put it in the big box. If it is shorter than one inch, we put it in the small box. Do you understand?" + +Lily said, "I think so, Anna. Can we try it?" + +Anna said, "Sure, Lily. Let's try it. Let's start with the dolls. They are easy. They are all big. They are longer than one inch. So we put them in the big box with the picture of a doll. Can you do that?" + +Lily said, "Yes, Anna. I can do that. Let me try." She picked up a doll and put it in the big box. She said, "Look, Anna. I did it. I put the doll in the big box." + +Anna clapped her hands. She said, "Good job, Lily. You did it. You are a good helper. Let's do the next one. How about the cars?" +Tom liked books a lot. He liked to look at the pictures and hear the stories. He had many books in his room, but his favorite book was about a dragon. The dragon was big and green and could breathe fire. Tom wanted to be like the dragon. + +One day, Tom saw a bottle of red sauce in the kitchen. He thought it was fire sauce, like the dragon used. He wanted to try it, so he took the bottle and ran to his room. He opened his book and found the page with the dragon. He said, "I am a dragon too. Watch me breathe fire!" + +He put some sauce in his mouth and spat it out. It was very spicy and hot. It burned his tongue and made him cough. He did not like it at all. He dropped the bottle and cried. His mom heard him and came to his room. She saw the sauce and the book and understood what happened. + +She hugged Tom and gave him some water. She said, "Tom, this sauce is not for dragons. It is for food. It makes food taste good, but it is too spicy for you. You are not a dragon, you are a boy. And boys need to ask before they take things from the kitchen. Do you understand?" + +Tom nodded and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to be a dragon, but I don't like fire sauce. Can I still read my book?" + +Mom smiled and said, "Of course you can, Tom. I like your book too. It has a nice story and beautiful pictures. But remember, it is only a book. You don't have to do everything the dragon does. You can use your imagination, but you also have to be careful and follow the rules. Can you do that?" + +Tom nodded again and said, "Yes, mom. I can do that. Thank you for the water and the hug. I love you." + +Mom said, "I love you too, Tom. Now, let's read your book together. And maybe later, we can make some cookies. How does that sound?" + +Tom smiled and said, "That sounds great, mom. Cookies are much better than fire sauce." +Lily liked to help her mom cook. She liked to stir the soup, cut the cheese and make the salad. But her favorite thing was to make sausages. She liked to roll the meat, put it in the skin and twist it into links. + +One day, Lily and her mom were making sausages for dinner. Lily was very careful and did a good job. She made six sausages and put them on a plate. She was very proud of her work. + +But then, she saw her dog, Spot, sneak into the kitchen. Spot smelled the sausages and licked his lips. He jumped on the counter and grabbed one of the sausages in his mouth. He ran away with it, wagging his tail. + +Lily saw what happened and shouted, "No, Spot! Bad dog! Give me back my sausage!" + +She ran after him, but he was too fast. He ran to the living room, where her dad was reading a book. He saw Spot with the sausage and said, "Hey, Spot, what do you have there?" + +Spot dropped the sausage and barked. He looked at Lily and wagged his tail again. He wanted to play. + +Lily picked up the sausage and said, "This is mine, Spot. I made it for dinner. You can have your own food later." + +She hugged the sausage and went back to the kitchen. She put it on the plate with the other five. She was happy that she saved her sausage. + +Her mom saw her and smiled. She said, "Lily, you are very thoughtful. You worked hard to make the sausages and you didn't let Spot eat them. You are a good helper and a good cook." + +Lily smiled back and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you and I love sausages." + +They hugged and kissed. Then they finished cooking and set the table. They had a delicious dinner with sausages, soup, cheese and salad. Spot had his own food too. He was a good dog and he didn't try to steal any more sausages. He was happy to be with his family. They all ate and talked and laughed. They had a good day. +Sam and Mia love to play soccer. They have a big ball and two goals in their backyard. They run and kick and score and cheer. Sometimes they pretend they are in a stadium with many people watching them. + +One day, their mom says they can go to a real stadium. She has tickets for a soccer game. Sam and Mia are very happy. They put on their soccer shirts and hats and get in the car. Mom drives them to the stadium. It is very big and loud. There are many people and flags and colors. + +Sam and Mia find their seats and watch the game. They see the players run and kick and score and cheer. They clap and shout and sing. They have a lot of fun. The game is incredible. + +But then, something bad happens. One of the players gets hurt. He falls on the ground and cries. The referee blows his whistle and stops the game. The other players and the coach come to help him. They carry him off the field. + +Sam and Mia are sad. They hope the player is okay. They want the game to go on. But mom says they have to quit. The game is over. There is no more time. + +Sam and Mia do not want to quit. They want to see more soccer. They say, "No, mom, no! We want to stay! We want to watch more!" + +Mom says, "I'm sorry, Sam and Mia. We have to go. The game is finished. Maybe we can watch another game another day. But now we have to leave. Come on, let's go." + +Sam and Mia are not happy. They pout and whine and drag their feet. But they follow mom to the car. They say goodbye to the stadium. They hope the player is okay. They hope they can come back soon. They still love soccer. +Tom and Mia were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big slide. It was not a straight slide. It was a zigzag slide. It went up and down and left and right. + +"Let's go on the zigzag slide!" Tom said. He ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. + +"Wait for me!" Mia said. She followed Tom to the slide. She was a little scared. The slide looked very high and fast. + +Tom reached the top of the slide. He looked down and smiled. He liked to go fast. He sat on the slide and pushed himself off. He went down the slide, making a whoosh sound. He went up and down and left and right. He laughed and shouted. + +Mia reached the top of the slide. She looked down and frowned. She did not like to go fast. She was very scared. She sat on the slide and held on to the sides. She did not push herself off. She stayed still. + +"Come on, Mia!" Tom said from the bottom of the slide. "It's fun! Don't be foolish!" + +Mia did not understand. She did not think it was fun. She thought it was scary. She did not want to be foolish. She wanted to be safe. + +She looked around and saw a small slide. It was a straight slide. It was not very high or fast. She liked that slide. She got off the zigzag slide and walked to the small slide. She climbed up the ladder and slid down. She made a whee sound. She smiled and giggled. + +Tom saw Mia on the small slide. He did not understand. He did not think it was fun. He thought it was boring. He wanted to go on the zigzag slide again. He ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. He slid down again. He made a whoosh sound. He laughed and shouted. + +Tom and Mia were friends. They liked to play in the park. But they liked different slides. And that was okay. +Lily and Tom are twins. They like to play catch with their big ball. They throw the ball to each other and catch it with their hands. Sometimes they miss and the ball rolls away. + +One day, they play catch in the park. They see a big building with many windows. It is a university. Lily and Tom do not know what a university is. They think it is a fun place to play. + +They run to the university with their ball. They see many people with books and bags. They are students. They learn new things at the university. Lily and Tom want to learn too. + +They see a thin man with glasses and a beard. He is a teacher. He teaches math at the university. He is writing on a board with a marker. Lily and Tom think he is drawing. + +They throw their ball to the teacher. They want him to catch it and play with them. But the ball hits the board and makes a loud noise. The teacher and the students are surprised and angry. + +"Who did that?" the teacher asks. He looks at Lily and Tom. They are scared. They did not mean to make the teacher mad. + +"Sorry, sir," Lily says. "We just wanted to play catch with you." + +The teacher sighs. He is not happy, but he is not mean. He picks up the ball and gives it back to Lily and Tom. + +"This is not a place to play catch," he says. "This is a place to learn. You are too young to be here. You should go back to the park and play there." + +Lily and Tom nod. They say sorry again and run away. They do not want to bother the teacher and the students anymore. They go back to the park and play catch with their ball. They have fun, but they also wonder what the teacher and the students are learning at the university. Maybe when they are older, they can go there and find out. +Anna liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She wanted to make a tasty cake for her dad's birthday. She climbed on a chair and opened a drawer. She took out a big bowl and a spoon. + +"Can I help you, mom?" she asked. + +"Of course, sweetie. You can balance the eggs on the spoon and bring them to me," her mom said. + +Anna nodded and smiled. She took an egg from the carton and put it on the spoon. She walked slowly and carefully to her mom. She did not want to drop the egg. + +"Good job, Anna. You are very good at balancing," her mom praised her. + +Anna felt happy. She gave her mom the egg and went back to the drawer. She took another egg and balanced it on the spoon. She was almost at the counter when she heard a loud noise. + +"Oops!" she said. + +She looked down and saw the egg on the floor. It was broken and messy. + +"I'm sorry, mom. I dropped the egg," she said. + +"That's okay, honey. Accidents happen. Don't worry. We have more eggs. Just be careful next time," her mom said. + +She gave Anna a hug and a kiss. She cleaned up the mess and gave Anna a new egg. + +"Thank you, mom. I love you," Anna said. + +"I love you too, Anna. You are a great helper. Now let's finish the cake and make it tasty," her mom said. + +They mixed the eggs, the flour, the sugar, and the butter in the bowl. They poured the batter in a pan and put it in the oven. They waited for the cake to bake. They smelled the yummy smell. + +"Mmm, it smells tasty," Anna said. + +"Yes, it does. I'm sure dad will love it," her mom said. + +They took out the cake and let it cool. They decorated it with frosting and sprinkles. They wrote "Happy Birthday Dad" on top. They put candles on the cake and lit them. + +They surprised dad when he came home. They sang "Happy Birthday" and gave him the cake. He blew out the candles and made a wish. He cut a slice of cake and gave it to Anna. + +"Thank you, Anna. This is the best cake ever. You are a wonderful daughter," he said. + +He gave her a big hug and a bite of cake. + +Anna smiled and tasted the cake. It was sweet and soft and tasty. + +She was happy. She helped her mom make a tasty cake for her dad's birthday. She learned how to balance eggs on a spoon. She had a fun and special day. +Sara and Anna are sisters. They like to play dress-up with their mom's clothes. One day, they find a veil in a box. It is white and long and pretty. + +"Let's play bride and groom!" Sara says. She puts the veil on her head and holds a flower. Anna nods and puts on a suit and a hat. They pretend to walk down the aisle and say "I do". + +They have fun and laugh a lot. But soon they get tired. They yawn and rub their eyes. They want to sleep. + +"Can we sleep with the veil?" Sara asks. She likes how it feels on her hair. + +"Okay, but we have to be careful. Mom might get mad if we mess it up." Anna says. She likes how it looks on her sister. + +They go to their room and climb into their bed. They share the veil and cover themselves with it. They hug each other tight and close their eyes. + +"Good night, bride." Anna whispers. + +"Good night, groom." Sara whispers back. + +They sleep with the veil and dream of happy things. +Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play outside. They have a big yard with grass and trees. They want to sleep outside in a tent. + +They plan to make a tent with a big sheet and some sticks. They find a good spot under a tree. They put the sticks in the ground and tie the sheet to them. They make a door with a flap. They bring some pillows and blankets inside. They have a thick blanket to keep them warm. + +They are happy with their tent. They say, "This is our fort. We are brave explorers. We will see the stars and the moon tonight." + +Mom and Dad come to see their tent. They say, "Wow, you did a great job. We are proud of you. Do you want to have dinner outside too?" + +Tom and Sam nod. They say, "Yes, please. We are hungry. Can we have hot dogs and marshmallows?" + +Mom and Dad smile. They say, "Sure. We will make a fire and cook for you. But you have to brush your teeth and say good night before you go to sleep in your tent." + +Tom and Sam agree. They say, "OK. Thank you, Mom and Dad. We love you." + +They have a fun dinner and a cozy night in their tent. They dream of adventures. They are happy. +Mila and Ben are twins. They like to play outside in the mud. They make mud pies and mud castles. They get very dirty and happy. + +But mom does not like mud. She says they have to bathe before dinner. She fills the tub with warm water and bubbles. She calls them to come inside. + +Mila and Ben do not want to bathe. They want to play more. They run away from mom. They hide behind the tree. They say, "No bath, no bath!" + +Mom is persistent. She looks for them. She finds them behind the tree. She says, "Come on, Mila and Ben. You have to bathe. It is good for you. You will be clean and smell nice. And you will get beef for dinner. You like beef, right?" + +Mila and Ben like beef. They think about it. They are hungry. They nod their heads. They follow mom to the tub. They bathe with the bubbles. They wash their hair and their toes. They splash and giggle. + +Mom is happy. She dries them with a towel. She puts on their pajamas. She gives them beef and carrots. They eat and say, "Yum, yum!" + +They hug mom and say, "Thank you, mom. We love you. And we love beef. And we love bath, too. Sometimes." +Lily was feeling sick. She had a hot head and a sore throat. She did not want to play or eat. Her mom was worried. She took a thermometer and put it in Lily's mouth. + +"What is that?" Lily asked. + +"It is a thermometer. It tells me how hot you are. It is harmless. It does not hurt you," her mom said. + +Lily waited for the beep. Her mom looked at the number. + +"Oh, Lily, you have a fever. You need to rest and drink water. I will call the doctor and see what he recommends," her mom said. + +Lily did not like the doctor. He always gave her shots and medicine. She was scared. + +"Mom, I don't want to go to the doctor. He is mean," Lily said. + +"No, Lily, he is not mean. He is nice. He helps you get better. He recommends what is best for you. He might give you a shot or medicine, but it is to make you feel good. Trust me, Lily, it is okay," her mom said. + +Lily nodded. She trusted her mom. She hoped the doctor would be nice. She hoped she would get better soon. She hugged her mom and closed her eyes. +Bella was a dog who loved to run and play. She had a big yard with a ball and a bone. She also had a friend who lived on her fur. His name was Flee and he was a flea. + +Flee liked to jump and bite. He thought it was fun to make Bella scratch and itch. He did not know that Bella did not like it. He did not know that it hurt her. + +One day, Bella had enough. She ran to the water hose and turned it on. She sprayed herself with cold water to get rid of Flee. Flee was scared and wet. He held on to Bella's fur and cried. + +"Bella, why did you do that?" he asked. "You are my friend. I love you." + +Bella shook her head and said, "No, Flee. You are not my friend. You are a bad flea. You make me itch and hurt. You do not love me. You only love yourself." + +Flee felt sad and sorry. He realized that he had been mean to Bella. He wanted to make her happy. He said, "Bella, I am sorry. I did not know. I want to be a good flea. I want to love you. Please, give me a chance." + +Bella looked at Flee. He looked serious and sincere. She decided to give him a chance. She said, "Okay, Flee. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will not bite me anymore. You have to promise me that you will be nice and gentle. Can you do that?" + +Flee nodded and said, "Yes, Bella. I promise. I will not bite you anymore. I will be nice and gentle. I will be a good flea. Thank you, Bella. You are a good dog." + +Bella smiled and said, "You are welcome, Flee. You are a good flea. I love you." + +They hugged and became friends. They played and shared. They learned to respect and care. They were happy. +Lila and Tom are playing in the park. They like to run and jump and slide. But today, they see something new. It is a big metal thing with a hole. It makes a sound when you hit it. It is a tap. + +"Look, a tap!" Lila says. "Let's play with it!" + +They run to the tap. Lila kneels down and puts her hand under the hole. She feels a drop of water. She laughs. + +"Water comes out!" she says. "It is cold and wet!" + +Tom kneels down too. He wants to feel the water. He hits the tap with his hand. It makes a loud noise. He laughs too. + +"Tap, tap, tap!" he says. "It is fun!" + +They take turns hitting the tap and feeling the water. They make a game of it. They count how many times they can hit the tap before the water stops. They splash each other with the water. They giggle and shout. + +But not everyone likes their game. A man is sitting on a bench near the tap. He is reading a book. He is restless. He does not like the noise and the water. He frowns and sighs. + +"Hey, you kids!" he says. "Stop playing with the tap! You are wasting water and making a mess!" + +Lila and Tom stop. They look at the man. They are scared. They did not know they were doing something bad. + +"Sorry, mister," Lila says. "We did not mean to." + +They get up and run away from the tap. They find another place to play. They are sad. They liked the tap. They wonder why the man was so angry. They do not understand. +Lily was a wise girl who liked to taste new things. She liked to taste fruits, vegetables, cheese, bread, and even some spices. She wanted to learn what different things tasted like and how they made her feel. + +One day, she saw a big bottle of soap on the sink in the bathroom. She wondered what it tasted like. She knew soap was for washing hands and faces, but maybe it was also yummy. She climbed on a stool and reached for the bottle. She opened it and smelled it. It smelled sweet and flowery. + +She poured some soap on her finger and put it in her mouth. She expected it to taste good, but it did not. It tasted bitter and yucky. It made her tongue feel funny and her eyes water. She spit it out and cried. + +"Mommy, mommy, help!" she shouted. + +Mommy heard her and ran to the bathroom. She saw Lily crying and the soap on the sink. She understood what happened and hugged Lily. + +"Oh, Lily, you should not taste soap. Soap is not for eating. Soap is for cleaning. It can make you sick if you eat it. Are you okay?" she asked. + +Lily nodded and wiped her mouth. She felt sorry and silly. + +"I'm sorry, mommy. I wanted to taste soap. I thought it would be good. But it was not. It was bad. I don't like soap. I won't taste it again," she said. + +Mommy smiled and kissed her. + +"It's okay, Lily. I'm glad you are okay. You are a wise girl, but sometimes you make mistakes. That's how you learn. But you have to be careful and ask me before you taste something you don't know. Some things are not safe or good for you. Do you understand?" she said. + +Lily nodded and hugged her. + +"I understand, mommy. Thank you for helping me. I love you," she said. + +Mommy said, "I love you too, Lily. Now let's go and have some juice and cookies. They are safe and good for you. And they taste much better than soap." +Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. The wind was blowing hard. It made their hair fly and their noses cold. + +"Look, Lila, a kite!" Ben said. He pointed to the sky. A big red kite was flying high. It had a long tail and a funny face. + +"Wow, it's interesting!" Lila said. She wanted to touch the kite. She ran after it. Ben followed her. + +The kite was too fast for them. It flew over the trees and the fence. Lila and Ben could not catch it. They felt sad. + +"Maybe we can make our own kite," Ben said. He had an idea. He saw a paper bag and some sticks. He took them and gave one to Lila. + +"Let's pinch the bag and tie the sticks," he said. He showed Lila how to do it. They worked hard. They made a kite. It was not as big or as red as the other kite, but it was theirs. + +They found a string and a ribbon. They tied them to the kite. They ran with the kite. The wind lifted it up. It flew in the sky. It had a short tail and a happy face. + +"Look, Lila, our kite!" Ben said. He smiled. Lila smiled too. + +They played with the kite. They had fun. They forgot about the other kite. They were happy. +Poppy was a small dog who liked to play with his ball. He would run and jump and catch the ball in his mouth. He was very happy and had a lot of fun. + +One day, he saw a big truck on the road. It was making a loud noise and had many boxes on it. Poppy was curious and wanted to see what was inside the boxes. He ran after the truck and followed it to a big house. + +He saw the truck driver open the door of the house and take out some of the boxes. He smelled something very good. It was a cake! Poppy loved cake. It was very tasty and sweet. He wanted to have some. + +He sneaked into the house and looked for the cake. He found it on the table in the kitchen. It was big and round and had pink frosting on it. Poppy licked his lips and jumped on the chair. He reached for the cake with his paws. + +But then he heard a voice. It was a girl. She was the owner of the house and the cake. She had made it for her birthday. She came into the kitchen and saw Poppy. + +"Hey, what are you doing here?" she asked. "That's my cake! You can't have it!" + +Poppy was scared. He did not recognize the girl. He did not know her. He dropped the cake and ran away. He ran out of the house and back to the road. He looked for his ball. He wanted to go home. + +He saw his ball on the sidewalk. He was happy. He picked it up with his mouth and ran to his house. He saw his owner waiting for him. He recognized him. He knew him. He loved him. + +"Poppy, where have you been?" his owner asked. "I was worried about you. Come here, boy. I have a treat for you." + +He gave Poppy a bone. It was very tasty and crunchy. Poppy wagged his tail and ate the bone. He was sorry for taking the cake. He did not want to do it again. He learned his lesson. He was happy and had a lot of fun. +Ben and Mia were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. They found a large bowl and some flour and eggs. They wanted to make a cake. + +"Let's put some flour in the bowl," said Ben. He took a big spoon and scooped some flour. He tried to pour it in the bowl, but he spilled some on the floor. "Oops!" he said. + +Mia giggled. She took a small spoon, a teaspoon, and scooped some flour. She poured it in the bowl very carefully. "See, Ben, you have to use a small spoon. It is easier," she said. + +Ben nodded. He put the big spoon away and took a teaspoon too. He scooped some more flour and poured it in the bowl. "You are right, Mia. This is better," he said. + +They added some eggs and some milk and some sugar. They mixed everything with a whisk. They made a lot of noise and bubbles. They were having fun. + +"Let's put the cake in the oven," said Mia. She took the bowl and tried to lift it. But it was too heavy for her. She dropped it on the table. "Oh no!" she said. + +Ben ran to help her. He grabbed the bowl with both hands. He pulled it hard. He pulled it too hard. The bowl flew off the table and landed on the floor. The cake batter splashed everywhere. "Oh no!" he said. + +They looked at the mess. They looked at each other. They started to cry. + +Mom heard the noise and came to the kitchen. She saw Ben and Mia and the mess. She was not happy. She was very angry. She said, "What have you done? This is a big mess. You are in big trouble. You have to clean this up right now." + +Ben and Mia said, "We are sorry, Mom. We wanted to make a cake. We used a teaspoon and a large bowl. But we pulled it too hard. We made a mistake." + +Mom sighed. She said, "I know you wanted to make a cake. But you have to ask me first. And you have to be careful. And you have to use the right tools. A teaspoon is too small and a large bowl is too big. Next time, I will help you make a cake. But now, you have to help me clean this up." + +Ben and Mia nodded. They said, "OK, Mom. We will help you. We love you, Mom." + +Mom smiled. She said, "I love you too, Ben and Mia. But please, no more playing in the kitchen without me." +Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play with blocks and dolls. One day, they have a problem. They want to make a house with blocks, but they have different ideas. + +"I want to make a big house with many rooms," Tom says. He puts many blocks on the floor. + +"I want to make a small house with a roof and a door," Anna says. She takes some blocks from Tom's pile. + +"No, Anna, those are my blocks!" Tom says. He is angry. He pulls the blocks back. + +"Hey, Tom, that is not nice!" Anna says. She is sad. She pushes Tom away. + +They start to cry. They do not want to play anymore. + +Mom hears them and comes to see. She sees the blocks and the tears. + +"What is wrong, Tom and Anna?" Mom asks. She is worried. + +"We want to make a house, but we have different opinions," Tom says. + +"It is difficult to agree," Anna says. + +Mom smiles. She has an idea. + +"Why don't you ask each other what you like and why?" Mom says. "Maybe you can find a way to make a house together." + +Tom and Anna think. They wipe their tears. + +"Anna, why do you want to make a small house?" Tom asks. + +"Because I think it is cozy and cute," Anna says. + +"Tom, why do you want to make a big house?" Anna asks. + +"Because I think it is fun and fancy," Tom says. + +They listen to each other. They understand. + +"Maybe we can make a big house with a roof and a door," Tom says. + +"Maybe we can make a small house with many rooms," Anna says. + +They smile. They agree. + +They start to build a house together. They use all the blocks. They are happy. + +Mom is proud. She hugs them. + +"You are good friends," Mom says. "You can make anything if you ask and share." +Anna and Ben like to play with their toy cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make roads and bridges with blocks and books. They zoom and beep and have fun. + +One day, they find a big switch on the wall. They wonder what it does. They want to try it. Anna says, "Let's push it and see what happens." Ben says, "OK, but be careful. Maybe it is not for us." + +They push the switch together. Suddenly, the lights go off and on. The room becomes dark and bright. They hear a loud noise. They see sparks and smoke. They are scared. They drop their cars and run to the door. + +Their mom hears the noise and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the switch, the sparks, the smoke and the cars. She sees Anna and Ben at the door. She is angry and worried. She says, "What did you do? You should not touch the switch. It is dangerous. It can make a fire. You could get hurt." + +Anna and Ben are sorry. They say, "We are sorry, mom. We did not know. We were curious. We wanted to see what the switch does. We will not touch it again." + +Mom hugs them and says, "I am glad you are OK. But you have to be more careful. You have to ask before you touch something you do not know. You have to listen to me. I love you and I want you to be safe." + +She helps them clean up the mess. She picks up the cars that are scattered on the floor. She fixes the switch and the lights. She opens the window to let the smoke out. She says, "Let's go to the kitchen and have some cookies. You can play with your cars later. But please, be more friendly to the switch." +Tom and Lily are new in the town. They are sad because they do not have any friends. They walk to the park with their mom and dad. They see a big slide and a swing. They want to play. + +They see a boy and a girl on the swing. They have big smiles and bright clothes. They look friendly. Tom and Lily go to them and say hello. + +"Hi, I am Sam and this is Mia. We live here. Do you want to play with us?" the boy says. + +"Yes, please. We are Tom and Lily. We are new here. We live in the blue house on the hill," Lily says. + +"Wow, that is a nice house. We live in the yellow house next to the park. We have a big carpet in our living room. Do you want to come and see it?" Mia says. + +"Sure, that sounds fun. Thank you for being so friendly. You are very nice," Tom says. + +They all get off the swing and run to the yellow house. They knock on the door and Sam's mom opens it. She smiles and says, "Welcome, Tom and Lily. I am glad you met Sam and Mia. They are always looking for new friends. Come in and have some juice and cookies. You can play on the carpet. It is very soft and cozy." +Lily was a little girl who liked to wonder. She wondered about many things, like why the sky was blue, or why the dog barked, or why the moon changed shape. She also wondered about the big house on the hill, where a rich man lived. She had never seen him, but she heard he had many things, like cars and toys and books. + +One day, Lily decided to go to the big house and see for herself. She walked up the hill, past the gate, and knocked on the door. No one answered, so she pushed it open and went inside. She saw a big hall, with many doors and stairs. She chose a door and opened it. She saw a room full of shelves, with many files on them. She wondered what was in the files, so she took one and opened it. She saw many papers, with words and numbers and pictures. She did not understand them, but they looked interesting. + +"Hello, who are you?" a voice said behind her. Lily turned around and saw the rich man. He was old and tall, with white hair and glasses. He looked surprised and angry. + +"I'm Lily," she said. "I live down the hill. I wanted to see your house. What are these files?" + +The rich man sighed. He put down his cane and walked to the shelf. He took the file from Lily and put it back. + +"These are my files," he said. "They are about my work. I used to be a scientist. I studied many things, like stars and plants and animals. But no one cares about my work anymore. They think it is boring and useless. That's why I live alone, with no friends or family." + +Lily felt sorry for the rich man. She wondered why he was so sad. She wanted to make him happy. + +"That's not true," she said. "I care about your work. I think it is amazing and wonderful. Can you tell me more about it? Can you show me your stars and plants and animals?" + +The rich man looked at Lily. He saw her eyes, bright and curious. He saw her smile, warm and friendly. He felt something he had not felt for a long time. He felt happy. + +"Really?" he said. "You want to hear about my work? You want to see my things?" + +"Yes, please," Lily said. "I love to wonder. And you have so many things to wonder about." + +The rich man smiled. He took Lily's hand and led her to another room. He showed her his telescope, his microscope, his specimens. He told her stories, facts, theories. He answered her questions, listened to her ideas, praised her imagination. They spent hours, talking and laughing and learning. + +They became friends. And they never stopped wondering. +Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, Tom finds a big box in his yard. He thinks it is a good place to hide and have fun. + +"Look, Sam, I have a box!" Tom says. "I can own this box. It is mine." + +Sam wants to play with the box too. He runs to Tom and says, "Can I play with you? Can I go inside the box?" + +Tom does not want to share. He says, "No, this is my box. You can not play with me. You can not go inside the box." + +Sam feels sad. He says, "But we are friends. Friends share. Why are you so mean?" + +Tom does not listen. He goes inside the box and closes the flap. He thinks he is happy. But he is not. The box is dark and hot. The box is small and hard. The box is uncomfortable. + +Tom starts to feel bad. He wants to get out of the box. He wants to play with Sam. He wants to say sorry. He opens the flap and looks for Sam. But Sam is gone. Sam went to play with someone else. + +Tom cries. He says, "I am sorry, Sam. I was wrong. I do not want to own this box. I want to share this box. I want to be your friend. Please come back." +Lily was a little girl who liked to jump. She jumped on her bed, on the sofa, on the grass and on the rocks. She liked to jump high and far and fast. She felt happy when she jumped. + +One day, she saw a big fence near her house. She wondered what was behind it. She wanted to jump over it and see. But the fence was very high and she was nervous. She did not know if she could jump that high. She did not know if there was something scary behind it. + +She asked her mom if she could jump over the fence. Her mom said no. She said it was not safe and it was not polite. She said there was a farm behind the fence and there were animals and people who lived there. She said Lily should not bother them. + +But Lily was curious and brave. She waited until her mom was busy and she ran to the fence. She looked for a place where the fence was lower and she tried to jump over it. She pushed hard with her legs and she lifted her arms. She almost made it, but she hit the fence with her foot and she fell down. + +She hurt her knee and she cried. She heard a noise behind the fence and she saw a big cow looking at her. The cow had black and white spots and a big pink nose. The cow said "Moo". Lily was scared and she said "Sorry". + +The cow was not angry. The cow was friendly. The cow licked Lily's knee and it felt better. The cow gave Lily some milk and it tasted good. Lily smiled and she said "Thank you". + +The cow said "You're welcome". The cow said "Why did you jump over the fence?". The cow said "It is not safe and it is not polite. You could get hurt or lost or make trouble. You should listen to your mom". + +Lily felt ashamed and she said "You're right". She said "I was curious and brave, but I was also nervous and silly. I wanted to see what was behind the fence, but I did not think about the consequences. I'm sorry for bothering you and your friends". + +The cow said "It's okay. I understand. You are a little girl who likes to jump. But you should also be careful and respectful. There are many things to see and do in the world, but you should always ask for permission and follow the rules". + +Lily nodded and she said "I will". She said "Can I be your friend?". The cow said "Of course". They hugged and they said goodbye. Lily climbed back over the fence and she ran to her mom. She told her mom what happened and she said sorry. Her mom hugged her and she said she was proud of her for being honest and brave. She said she was also glad that she made a new friend. She said she would take her to visit the cow again, but only with the farmer's permission. Lily was happy and she said she loved her mom. She said she loved jumping, but she also loved learning. +Ben and Mia liked to play with their stuffed animals. They had a lot of them, but their favorite was a big brown monkey. They named him Bobo and gave him a red hat and a blue scarf. They took Bobo everywhere they went. + +One day, they went to the park with their mom. They played on the swings, the slide, and the sandbox. They had a lot of fun, but they also got very dirty. Their mom said it was time to go home and take a bath. Ben and Mia agreed, but they wanted to take Bobo with them. + +"Can we take Bobo to the bath, mom?" Ben asked. + +"Sorry, honey, but Bobo is too big and too dirty for the bath. He needs to go to the laundry," mom said. + +"But he will be lonely and cold in the laundry," Mia said. + +"Don't worry, he will be fine. He will be clean and fluffy when he comes out. You can play with him again tomorrow," mom said. + +Ben and Mia were not happy. They hugged Bobo and said goodbye. They put him in a big bag with their other dirty clothes. They felt uncomfortable and sad. + +They took their bath and put on their pajamas. They got ready for bed, but they missed Bobo. They could not sleep without him. + +"Mom, can we have Bobo back?" Ben asked. + +"Quit asking, Ben. Bobo is in the laundry. You can see him tomorrow," mom said. + +"But we need him, mom. He is our friend. We love him," Mia said. + +Mom sighed. She saw how much Ben and Mia loved Bobo. She felt sorry for them. She decided to do something nice for them. + +She went to the laundry and took Bobo out of the bag. He was still dirty, but he was also soft and warm. She wrapped him in a towel and brought him to Ben and Mia's room. + +"Look who I found," she said. + +"Bobo!" Ben and Mia shouted. They ran to mom and took Bobo from her. They hugged him and kissed him. They thanked mom and said sorry for being noisy. + +"It's okay, sweeties. I know how much you love Bobo. But you have to promise me something," mom said. + +"What, mom?" Ben and Mia asked. + +"You have to promise me that you will let Bobo go to the laundry tomorrow. He needs to be clean and fresh. And you need to play with your other stuffed animals too. They miss you," mom said. + +"Okay, mom. We promise," Ben and Mia said. + +They put Bobo in their bed and snuggled with him. They felt happy and cozy. They said goodnight to mom and to each other. They closed their eyes and fell asleep. +Lily wanted to make a cake for her mom. She had a big bowl, some eggs, some flour, some sugar, and some butter. She also had a spoon and a pan. She put everything in the bowl and mixed it with the spoon. She poured the batter in the pan and put it in the oven. She was very happy. + +She waited for a long time. She smelled something good. She opened the oven and saw a golden cake. She took it out with her oven mitts. She put it on a plate and decorated it with some icing and sprinkles. She wrote "I love you mom" with the icing. She was very proud. + +She heard her mom coming home. She ran to the door and hugged her mom. She said, "Mom, I have a surprise for you. I made a cake for you. Do you want to see it?" She pulled her mom by the arm to the kitchen. She showed her the cake and said, "I made it all by myself. I hope you like it." + +Her mom was very surprised and happy. She said, "Lily, you are amazing. You made a cake for me. That is so sweet of you. Thank you so much. It looks delicious. Can we have a slice?" She cut a slice for Lily and a slice for herself. They ate the cake and smiled. It was very yummy. + +Lily said, "Mom, I love you. I wanted to make you happy. I worked very hard. I think I succeeded." Her mom said, "Lily, I love you too. You made me very happy. You worked very hard. You did succeed. You are a wonderful baker and a wonderful daughter." They hugged and kissed. They were very happy. +Sara and Tom are friends. They like to play together. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big slide and a swing. They want to play on them. + +"Can we go on the slide, mom?" Sara asks. + +"Yes, you can, but be careful," her mom says. + +"Can we go on the swing, mom?" Tom asks. + +"Yes, you can, but wait your turn," his mom says. + +Sara and Tom run to the slide. They take turns to go down. They have fun. Then they run to the swing. They see a boy on the swing. He does not let them have a turn. He swings very high and fast. He laughs at them. + +"Go away, this is my swing," he says. "I am rich, I can buy anything I want. You are poor, you can't buy anything. You can't play here." + +Sara and Tom feel sad and angry. They do not like the boy. They want to play on the swing. + +"Please, can we have a turn?" Sara asks. + +"No, you can't, this is my swing. You have to stay away," the boy says. + +"That is not nice, you have to share," Tom says. + +"No, I don't, I am rich, I can do what I want. You are poor, you have to do what I say," the boy says. + +Sara and Tom do not know what to do. They look at their moms. Their moms see what is happening. They come to help them. + +"Hello, what is your name?" Sara's mom asks the boy. + +"My name is Ben," the boy says. + +"Hello, Ben, I am Sara's mom. This is Tom's mom. We are here to play with our kids. Can you share the swing with them?" Sara's mom asks. + +"No, I can't, this is my swing. I am rich, I can buy anything I want. They are poor, they can't buy anything. They can't play here," Ben says. + +"That is not true, Ben. You can't buy everything you want. You can't buy friends. You can't buy happiness. You can't buy kindness. You need those things to be happy. And you can't be happy if you are mean to others. You have to share and be nice. That is how you make friends and have fun," Sara's mom says. + +Ben does not listen. He does not care. He thinks he is better than Sara and Tom. He thinks he does not need friends. He thinks he is happy. + +"Go away, I don't need friends. I don't need happiness. I don't need kindness. I have money. I am rich. I can do what I want. You are poor. You have to do what I say. You have to stay away," Ben says. + +Sara and Tom feel sorry for Ben. They think he is lonely and sad. They think he does not know how to play and have fun. They think he needs friends and kindness. They want to help him. + +"Ben, we are sorry you feel that way. We are not poor. We have many things. We have moms who love us. We have toys to play with. We have each other. We are friends. We are happy. We are kind. We want to play with you. We want to be your friends. You can join us. You can have fun. You can be happy. You can be kind. You can stay with us," Sara and Tom say. + +Ben is surprised. He does not understand. He does not know how to respond. He looks at Sara and Tom. He sees their smiles. He hears their words. He feels something in his heart. He feels curious. He feels confused. He feels a little bit happy. He feels a little bit kind. He wonders what it is like to play and have fun. He wonders what it is like to have friends and be kind. He wonders what it is like to stay with them. + +"Really? You want to play with me? You want to be my friends? You want me to stay with you?" Ben asks. + +"Yes, we do. We want to share the swing with you. We want to go on the slide with you. We want to have fun with you. We want to be your friends. We want you to stay with us," Sara and Tom say. + +Ben thinks for a moment. He makes a choice. He decides to try something new. He decides to share and be nice. He decides to play and have fun. He decides to make friends and be kind. He decides to stay with them. + +"Okay, I will. I will share the swing with you. I will go on the slide with you. I will have fun with you. +Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to go on the slide and the swings. They also liked to twist on the round thing that spun fast. They twisted and twisted until they felt dizzy. + +"Let's go to the other side of the park," Lily said. "There is a big tree and a pond." + +"Okay," Ben said. They ran to the other side of the park. They saw the big tree and the pond. They also saw a duck. + +"Look, a duck!" Lily said. She wanted to feed the duck. She had some bread in her pocket. She took out a piece and threw it to the duck. + +The duck was hungry. It ate the bread. It wanted more. It came closer to Lily. It quacked loudly. + +"More, more!" the duck said. + +Lily gave the duck another piece of bread. The duck ate it. It still wanted more. It followed Lily. It tried to peck her pocket. + +"Stop, stop!" Lily said. She was scared of the duck. She ran away. The duck ran after her. + +Ben saw Lily and the duck. He wanted to help her. He picked up a stick. He waved it at the duck. + +"Go away, go away!" Ben said. He scared the duck. The duck stopped chasing Lily. It went back to the pond. + +Lily ran to Ben. She hugged him. + +"Thank you, thank you!" Lily said. She was happy. Ben was happy too. + +They decided to leave the park. They were hungry too. They went home to have lunch. They did not twist on the round thing anymore. They did not like the duck. +Anna and Ben love to play with trains. They have many trains of different colors and sizes. They also have a big rail that goes around the room. They can make the trains go fast or slow on the rail. + +One day, Anna wants to play with the yellow train. She likes the yellow train because it is bright and shiny. She looks for the yellow train in the box, but she cannot find it. She asks Ben, "Where is the yellow train?" + +Ben says, "I have the yellow train. It is my favorite train. I want to play with it." + +Anna says, "But I want to play with it too. Can we share the yellow train?" + +Ben says, "No, it is mine. You can play with another train." + +Anna is sad and angry. She says, "That is not fair. You have many trains. You should share the yellow train with me." + +Ben says, "No, I will not share. The yellow train is the best train. Go away." + +Anna does not go away. She insists, "Give me the yellow train. It is my turn to play with it." + +Ben says, "No, it is not your turn. It is always my turn. The yellow train is mine." + +They start to fight over the yellow train. They pull and tug and shout. The yellow train falls from their hands and breaks on the floor. They both stop and look at the broken train. They both feel sorry and sad. + +They say to each other, "I am sorry. I should have shared the yellow train with you. It was our train. Can we be friends again?" + +They hug and say, "Yes, we can be friends again. We can play with the other trains together. We can fix the yellow train later." + +They put the broken train in the box and take out another train. They play with the train on the rail. They have fun and laugh. They are happy. +Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play together in the park. One day, they saw a big book on a bench. It had many pictures and words. It was a book about history. + +"Look, Tom, this book is about history. History is what happened a long time ago. Do you want to read it with me?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, Lily, I like history. History is fun and interesting. Maybe we can learn something new," Tom said. + +They opened the book and looked at the pages. They saw pictures of people, animals, places, and things from history. They saw kings and queens, dinosaurs and dragons, pyramids and castles, and more. + +"Wow, history is amazing. Look at this picture. It is a dragon. Do you think dragons were real?" Lily wondered. + +"I don't know, Lily. Maybe they were. Maybe they were just stories. But they look cool and scary. I wish I could see a dragon," Tom said. + +They turned the page and saw another picture. It was a man with a big hat and a long beard. He had a funny smile and a paper in his hand. + +"Who is this man, Lily? He looks crazy. Why does he have a big hat and a beard?" Tom asked. + +"I don't know, Tom. Maybe he was a leader or a writer. Maybe he was crazy. But he looks nice and smart. I like his smile and his paper," Lily said. + +They read the words under the picture. They were hard to read, but they tried their best. They said: "This is Abraham Lincoln. He was the president of the United States. He helped to free the slaves. He was a good and brave man. He wrote the Gettysburg Address. It is a famous speech about freedom and equality." + +Lily and Tom did not understand all the words, but they liked the sound of them. They liked Abraham Lincoln. They thought he was a good and brave man. They wanted to know more about him and his history. + +"Tom, I recommend this book. It is a good book. It teaches us about history. History is important and fun. Do you want to keep reading?" Lily asked. + +"Yes, Lily, I recommend this book too. It is a good book. It makes us curious and smart. I want to keep reading. Let's read more about history," Tom said. + +They smiled and hugged. They were happy and excited. They kept reading the book about history. They learned many new things. They had a lot of questions. They had a lot of fun. They loved history. +Lily and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. They have a lot of fun making noises and building things. They do not disturb Mom, who is working on her laptop at the table. + +Mom is happy that Lily and Ben are playing nicely. She thinks they are healthy and smart kids. She wants to give them a snack soon. She looks at the clock and sees that it is almost time. + +She gets up and goes to the kitchen. She takes out some apples and cheese from the fridge. She cuts them into small pieces and puts them on a plate. She also fills two cups with water. + +She brings the plate and the cups to the living room. She calls Lily and Ben to come and eat. They hear her and run to the table. They are hungry and excited. + +They see the food and say, "Thank you, Mom!" They sit down and start to eat. They like the apples and cheese. They drink the water. They are polite and do not make a mess. + +Mom smiles and sits with them. She asks them what they were playing. They tell her about their toys and their stories. They show her their creations. She praises them and hugs them. + +She sees that Lily is wearing a new shirt. It is pink and has a flower on it. She says, "Lily, I like your shirt. It is very pretty. Where did you get it?" + +Lily says, "Thank you, Mom. I got it from Grandma. She gave it to me for my birthday. She said it is a special shirt. She made it herself. She loves me very much." + +Mom says, "That is very nice of Grandma. She does love you very much. And so do I. You are a wonderful girl. And Ben, you are a wonderful boy. I love you both very much." + +Lily and Ben say, "We love you too, Mom. You are the best mom in the world." + +They finish their snack and hug Mom. They are happy and grateful. They do not disturb Mom anymore. They go back to their toys and play quietly. Mom goes back to her laptop and works. She is happy and proud. +Lily and Sam went to the museum with their mom. They saw many things that made them happy and curious. They saw big bones of animals that lived long ago. They saw shiny rocks and colorful paintings. They saw a big globe that spun around. + +"Look, mom, the world is moving!" Sam said, pointing at the globe. + +"Yes, it is, Sam. The globe shows how the earth spins in space. Do you want to touch it?" mom asked. + +Sam nodded and ran to the globe. He put his hand on it and felt it turn. He laughed and tried to follow it with his eyes. Lily joined him and they both spun around with the globe. + +"Wow, this is fun!" Lily said. + +But after a while, they started to feel dizzy. Their heads felt funny and their legs felt wobbly. They stopped spinning and sat down on the floor. + +"Are you okay, Sam? Lily?" mom asked, coming to them. + +"I feel sick, mom. The world is spinning too fast," Sam said. + +"I feel sick, too, mom. Can we go home?" Lily said. + +Mom hugged them and gave them some water. She said they were dizzy because they spun around too much. She said they needed to rest and calm down. + +"It's okay, Sam and Lily. You did a great job exploring the museum. You learned a lot of new things. I'm proud of you," mom said. She encouraged them to smile and feel better. + +"Thank you, mom. We love you," Sam and Lily said. + +They got up and walked slowly to the exit. They still felt a little dizzy, but they also felt happy. They had a fun day at the museum. +Lily and Ben love to play with their boat. They have a big boat that can float on the water. They like to make the boat go fast and slow, and turn left and right. They have fun with their boat. + +One day, they see a new boat at the park. It is a cool boat. It has a sail and a flag and a horn. It is bigger and prettier than their boat. Lily and Ben want to play with the cool boat. + +They go to the boy who has the cool boat. His name is Sam. They ask him, "Can we play with your boat, please?" + +Sam says, "No, this is my boat. You have your own boat. Go away." + +Lily and Ben are sad. They think Sam is mean. They go back to their boat. They try to have fun, but they still want the cool boat. + +Then, they see a duck. The duck is hungry. It sees the cool boat. It thinks the sail is food. It swims to the cool boat and bites the sail. The sail rips. The boat sinks. Sam cries. + +Lily and Ben feel sorry for Sam. They go to him and say, "We are sorry about your boat. Do you want to play with our boat? We can share." + +Sam says, "Thank you. You are nice. I am sorry I was mean. Can we be friends?" + +Lily and Ben say, "Yes, we can be friends. Let's play together." + +They give Sam their boat. They take turns to make it float and go fast and slow, and turn left and right. They have fun with their boat. They gain a new friend. They are happy. +Bella was a brave dog who loved to play and run. But one day, she hurt her paw on a sharp rock and it started to bleed. She cried and licked her paw, but it did not get better. Her owner, Sam, saw that she was in pain and decided to take her to the veterinarian. + +The veterinarian was a nice lady who wore a white coat and had a stethoscope. She looked at Bella's paw and said, "Oh, poor Bella, you have a nasty cut. I need to clean it and put a bandage on it. It might sting a little, but it will help you heal." She took out a bottle of antiseptic and a cotton ball and gently dabbed Bella's wound. + +Bella whimpered and tried to pull away, but Sam held her and said, "It's okay, Bella, you're a brave dog. The veterinarian is helping you. It will be over soon." He stroked her fur and gave her a treat. + +The veterinarian finished cleaning and bandaging Bella's paw and said, "There, all done. You're a good dog, Bella. You need to rest and keep your paw dry for a few days. Then you can come back and I'll take off the bandage and check on you." She gave Bella another treat and a sticker. + +Bella wagged her tail and licked the veterinarian's face. She was happy that her paw felt better and that the veterinarian was kind. She hopped on Sam's lap and thanked him with a lick. Sam smiled and said, "You're welcome, Bella. You're my best friend. Let's go home and watch a movie." + +On the way home, Bella saw a cat hiding behind a trash can. She barked and tried to chase it, but Sam held her leash and said, "No, Bella, no. You need to stay calm and quiet. You don't want to hurt your paw again." Bella stopped and looked at the cat. The cat hissed and revealed its teeth. Bella saw that the cat had a disgusting fish bone stuck in its mouth. She felt sorry for the cat and wished the veterinarian could help it. She decided to leave the cat alone and snuggled with Sam. She was glad that she had a good owner and a good veterinarian. She hoped that the cat would find a good home too. +Anna and Ben like to visit their grandma every week. She lives in a big house near the woods. Sometimes they see wild animals there, like rabbits, birds and squirrels. Grandma tells them stories about the animals and gives them cookies and milk. + +One day, Anna and Ben saw a big brown bear in the woods. They were scared and ran back to the house. Grandma saw them and asked, "What's wrong, my dears?" + +"Grandma, there is a wild bear in the woods! He is big and scary and has sharp teeth!" Anna said. + +"Are you sure? Maybe it was just a big dog or a cow," Grandma said. + +"No, Grandma, it was a bear! We saw him with our eyes!" Ben said. + +Grandma smiled and said, "Don't worry, my dears. The bear is not a bad animal. He is just looking for food and a place to sleep. He won't hurt you if you leave him alone. He is reliable. He always stays in the woods and never comes to the house." + +"Really, Grandma? Are you sure?" Anna and Ben asked. + +"Yes, my dears. I have lived here for a long time and I know the bear. He is a good neighbor. He never bothers me or my chickens. He is a wild animal, but he is also a friend," Grandma said. + +Anna and Ben felt better and hugged Grandma. They still wanted to see the wild animals, but they decided to stay away from the bear. They knew he was reliable, but they also knew he was big and scary. They liked Grandma's stories and cookies better. +Ben and Lily were playing with their toy kitchen. They liked to pretend they were making cakes and pies for their stuffed animals. Ben had a big spoon and a bowl. Lily had a small cup and a box. + +"Can you open the box for me, Ben?" Lily asked. "I need some flour for my pie." + +Ben nodded and tried to open the box. But it was too hard. He pulled and pulled, but the box did not open. + +"Let me help you," Lily said. She took the box from Ben and looked for a way to open it. She saw a gray tape on the side of the box. She peeled off the tape and opened the box. + +"Wow, you did it!" Ben said. "You are so smart, Lily." + +"Thank you, Ben. Now we can make our pie. Here, take some flour and put it in your bowl. I will measure some water and sugar in my cup. Then we can mix them together and put them in the oven." + +Ben and Lily smiled and worked together. They poured and stirred and baked their pie. They were very happy. They gave some pie to their stuffed animals and ate some themselves. It was the best pie ever. +Lila and Ben were best friends. They liked to play pretend in the park. One day, they found a big cardboard box. They decided to make it into a palace. + +They used crayons and stickers to draw windows and doors on the box. They cut out a hole for the entrance. They put a blanket inside to make it cozy. They were very proud of their palace. + +"Let's go inside and have a tea party," Lila said. She grabbed her teddy bear and a plastic cup. Ben nodded and followed her with his dinosaur and a plastic plate. + +They crawled into the box and pretended to pour tea and eat cookies. They talked about their favorite things and made funny noises. They had a lot of fun. + +Suddenly, they heard a harsh voice outside. It was Billy, the mean boy from the next street. He saw their palace and wanted to ruin it. + +"Hey, what are you doing in there?" he shouted. He kicked the box and made it shake. Lila and Ben were scared. They hugged their toys and hoped he would go away. + +But Billy did not go away. He pushed the box harder and harder. He made it spin and roll on the grass. Lila and Ben felt dizzy and sick. They cried and asked him to stop. + +"Stop it, Billy! You are mean and rude!" Lila yelled. "This is our palace and you are not invited!" + +"Yeah, go away, Billy! You are a bully and a jerk!" Ben added. "This is our fun and you are spoiling it!" + +Billy did not listen. He laughed and kept spinning the box. He thought it was funny to make them sad and angry. + +But then, he heard a loud whistle. It was the park ranger. He saw what Billy was doing and came to stop him. + +"Hey, you! What do you think you are doing?" he asked. He grabbed Billy by the collar and pulled him away from the box. He looked very angry. "You are hurting these kids and their palace. That is not nice. That is not fair. That is not allowed." + +Billy felt scared and ashamed. He knew he was in trouble. He wished he had not been so mean and rude. + +The park ranger helped Lila and Ben out of the box. He checked if they were okay. He gave them a hug and a band-aid. He apologized for Billy's behavior. He told them they had a very nice palace and a very good imagination. He told them they could keep playing and have fun. + +Lila and Ben smiled and thanked him. They were happy and relieved. They fixed their palace and invited the park ranger to join their tea party. He accepted and brought them some real cookies. They shared them with their toys and had a wonderful time. They forgot about Billy and his harsh voice. They only remembered their palace and their fun. +Ben and Mia like to play outside. They have a big yard with a swing, a slide and a sandbox. They also have a zip line that goes from a tree to a pole. They can zip fast and feel the wind on their faces. + +One day, they see dark clouds in the sky. They hear a loud boom and see a flash. It is a storm. They are scared and run inside. They find their mom in the kitchen. + +"Mom, there is a storm!" Ben says. + +"I know, sweetie. It's okay. The storm will go away soon. It is a mild storm, not a big one. Do you want some hot cocoa?" Mom says. + +"Yes, please!" Mia says. + +Mom makes them hot cocoa and gives them some cookies. They sit on the couch and watch the rain. They see a rainbow and smile. + +"Look, the storm is over!" Mia says. + +"Can we go outside and play again?" Ben asks. + +"Sure, but put on your jackets. It is cold and wet outside." Mom says. + +They put on their jackets and zip them up. They run outside and play on the zip line. They are happy and have fun. They like the zip line and the rainbow. They do not like the storm. +Tim and Mia liked to play in the sand near the water. They made castles and bridges and tunnels with their buckets and shovels. Sometimes they saw fish and crabs and shells in the water. They were careful not to go too far from their mom and dad. + +One day, they saw a big fin in the water. It was a shark! They were scared and ran to their mom and dad. "Mom, dad, look! A shark!" they shouted. Their mom and dad looked and saw the fin too. They told Tim and Mia to stay close to them. + +The shark came closer and closer to the shore. It was not a mean shark. It was a playful shark. It liked to splash and jump and make bubbles. It wanted to play with Tim and Mia. It did not want to hurt them. + +Tim and Mia saw that the shark was not mean. They saw that it was playful. They wanted to play with the shark too. They asked their mom and dad if they could. Their mom and dad said yes, but only if they stayed in the shallow water and did not touch the shark. + +Tim and Mia managed to play with the shark. They threw balls and sticks and seaweed for the shark to catch. They laughed and clapped when the shark did tricks. The shark was happy and wagged its tail. They had fun together. + +The end. +Sara and Ben like to play pretend. They have a big box of old clothes and things. They can be anything they want.

Who wants a new hairstyle?" + +Ben puts on a shirt and a tie. He says, "I do, I do. I am Ben, the famous actor. I need a haircut for my next movie." + +Sara says, "OK, Ben, sit down on this chair. I will make you look very handsome. But you have to be careful. Do not move your head or you will mess up your hair." + +Ben sits down on a small stool. Sara starts to comb his hair. She makes funny noises with her mouth. She says, "Snip, snip, snip. There, I am done. Look at yourself in this mirror. You look amazing." + +Ben looks at himself in a shiny plate. He sees his hair is still the same. He laughs. He says, "Thank you, Sara. You are a great hairdresser. But I think I like my hair the way it is." + +Sara laughs too. She says, "You are welcome, Ben. You are a great actor. But I think you need some more practice." + +They hug and put the clothes and things back in the box. They go to find another game to play. They have fun playing pretend. +Lily was very hungry. She wanted to eat beef for dinner. But when she came to the table, she saw only rice and beans. She did not like rice and beans. She looked at her mom and dad and said, "Where is the beef?" + +Mom and dad smiled and said, "We are sorry, Lily. We do not have beef today. We have rice and beans. They are good for you. You can try them and see." + +Lily shook her head and pushed her plate away. She did not want to try them. She wanted beef. She started to weep. She wept loud and hard.

They make us dream and wonder. Come on, Lily. Let's go and read a story. We love you." + +Lily hugged mom and dad and said, "I love you too, mom and dad. You are the best. Let's go and read a story. Good night." + +The end. +Sara and Tom were hungry. They saw a big vine with red fruits on it. They wanted to eat the fruits. They ran to the vine and picked some fruits. + +"Yum, these are sweet and juicy!" Sara said. + +"Let me try one!" Tom said. + +But when Tom bit into a fruit, he made a face. "Yuck, this is sour and bitter!" he said. + +He threw the fruit away. He was grumpy. He did not want to eat any more fruits. + +Sara looked at him. She saw a yellow and black bug on his fruit.

He was scared. He did not like bugs. He did not want to try another fruit. + +"No, thank you. I do not want any fruits. I want a cookie," he said. + +He walked away from the vine.

She looked up and saw Tom on the roof of the shed. + +"Tom, what are you doing up there?" Lily asked. "You are not allowed to go on the roof. It is dangerous and dirty." + +Tom did not answer. He just smiled and blinked his eyes. He thought he was very clever and funny. He did not see the big hole in the roof. He moved his foot and fell through the hole. He landed on a pile of old clothes and boxes. He was not hurt, but he was very embarrassed. He had dirt and cobwebs on his face and hair. + +Lily ran to the shed and opened the door. She saw Tom lying on the floor. She was worried and angry. She said, "Tom, you are silly and naughty. You could have hurt yourself. And you ruined the game. You are not a good hider.

They yell and laugh at the blue group. They say mean things like, "You are slow and weak. You can't play soccer. You are losers." + +Ben feels sad and angry. He doesn't like the red group. He thinks they are mean and bad. He wants to say something back, but he remembers what his mom said. He decides to ignore them and focus on his practice. He thinks, "I don't care what they say. I know I'm a good player and a good friend. I'm here to have fun and learn, not to fight and be mean." +Ben and Mia like to play in the garden. They see many things that move and make sounds. They see birds, bees, ants, and flowers. They also see a little cricket. The cricket is green and has long legs. It can jump very high and make a chirp-chirp sound. + +"Look, a cricket!" Ben says. He runs to catch it, but the cricket is too fast. It jumps away from Ben's hand. Mia laughs and follows Ben.

She makes a face and says, "Yuck!" + +Ben looks behind a rock, but he only sees a spider. He does not like spiders. He makes a face and says, "Eek!" + +They look and look, but they cannot find the cricket. They feel sad and tired. They sit on the grass and sigh. + +"Maybe the cricket does not want to play with us," Ben says. + +"Maybe it is scared of us," Mia says. + +They are quiet for a while. Then they hear a chirp-chirp sound. They look up and see the cricket on a branch. The cricket looks at them and chirps again. + +"Hello, cricket!" Ben says. He waves his hand. + +"Hello, cricket!" Mia says. She smiles. + +The cricket chirps back. It seems to say hello too. Ben and Mia feel happy. They think the cricket is friendly. They sit and watch the cricket. They listen to its sound.

You need to clean up right now!" + +Lily and Tom stopped playing. They looked at each other. They felt sorry. + +"We're sorry, mom," Lily said. "We were just playing." + +"We were changing into animals," Tom said. "We were wild." + +"Well, you need to change back into children," Lily's mom said. "And you need to help me pick up the leaves. Then we can go home and have a snack." + +Lily and Tom nodded. They took off their hats and tails. They helped Lily's mom clean up the leaves. They were not wild anymore. They were good. +One day, Ben and Lily went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and elephants. They liked to watch them and learn their names and sounds. + +But there was one animal that they did not know. It was big and brown, with a long nose and big ears. It had a funny name: rhinoceros. Ben and Lily thought it was mysterious. They wanted to see it closer. + +"Mom, can we go near the rhinoceros?" Ben asked. + +"Sure, but be careful. It is very strong and can run fast," mom said. + +Ben and Lily walked slowly to the fence, where the rhinoceros was eating some grass. They saw its big horn and its thick skin. They wondered what it felt like. + +"Hello, rhinoceros. What are you doing?" Lily said. + +The rhinoceros looked up and saw the children. It snorted and shook its head. It did not like to be disturbed. + +"Wow, it is loud!" Ben said. + +The rhinoceros started to walk towards them. It looked angry. Ben and Lily got scared. They ran back to their mom. + +"Mom, the rhinoceros is coming!" Lily cried. + +Mom hugged them and said, "Don't worry, it can't hurt you. It is behind the fence. It just wants to be left alone." + +Ben and Lily calmed down and looked at the rhinoceros. It stopped and went back to its grass. It did not care about them anymore. + +"Sorry, rhinoceros. We did not mean to bother you," Ben said. + +Lily nodded and said, "You are a very mysterious animal. We hope you have a good day." + +The rhinoceros did not answer. It just kept eating. Ben and Lily learned to respect the animals and their space. They thanked their mom for taking them to the zoo and went to see other animals. They had a lot of fun. +Anna loved her toy leopard. She named him Leo and took him everywhere. Leo was soft and loyal. He always listened to Anna and made her happy. + +One day, Anna and Leo went to the park with Mommy. Anna saw a big slide and wanted to try it. She climbed up the steps and held Leo tight. "Are you ready, Leo?" she asked. "We are going to fly!" + +Anna slid down the slide and felt the wind in her hair. She laughed and smiled. Leo liked it too. He felt like a real leopard, fast and strong. + +But when Anna reached the bottom, she saw a boy grab Leo from her arms. He ran away with him. Anna was scared and sad. She cried and shouted. "Give me back my leopard! He is mine!" + +Mommy heard Anna and ran to her. She saw the boy with Leo and followed him. She caught up with him and took Leo back. She gave him to Anna and hugged her. "Don't worry, sweetie. Leo is safe. He is your loyal friend. No one can take him away from you." + +Anna hugged Leo and thanked Mommy. She was happy again. She kissed Leo and said. "I love you, Leo. You are the best leopard ever. You can fly with me anytime." +Lily and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. They were very happy. + +But then they felt very cold. They started to shiver. Their hands and feet were numb. They wanted to go inside and drink hot cocoa. + +"Let's go home, Lily," Ben said. "I'm too cold." + +"Me too," Lily said. "But what about our snowman? He will be lonely." + +They looked at their snowman. He looked happy, but also cold. + +"Maybe we can give him something to keep him warm," Ben said. He had an idea. He ran to the kitchen and came back with a jar of sugar. + +"Look, Lily, I have sugar. We can sprinkle some on our snowman. It will make him sweet and shiny." + +Lily liked the idea. She took the jar and opened it. They both sprinkled some sugar on their snowman. The sugar sparkled in the sun. + +"There, now he looks warmer," Ben said. + +"And happier," Lily said. + +They hugged their snowman and said goodbye. They ran inside and drank hot cocoa. Their mom was very proud of them. She said they were very helpful and creative. They smiled and thanked her. They felt warm and cozy. They loved their snowman and each other. +Anna and Ben liked to play in the park near their house. They liked to swing, slide and run on the grass. But they did not like the station next to the park. The station was big and loud and dirty. It had many trains that made a lot of noise and smoke. Sometimes, people came out of the station and looked angry or sad. + +One day, Anna and Ben were playing in the park when they heard a loud whistle. They looked and saw a big train coming out of the station. It was black and red and had a lot of windows. Anna and Ben were curious and wanted to see the train better. They ran to the fence that separated the park from the station. They climbed on the fence and looked at the train. + +But the train was not nice. It was disgusting. It had dirt and rust and bugs on it. It smelled bad and made a lot of noise. And it had a face. A big, scary face. It had two eyes that looked angry and a mouth that looked mean. It looked at Anna and Ben and said, "Get off my fence, you little rats! I will scare you away!" + +Anna and Ben were very scared. They jumped off the fence and ran back to the park. They did not want to see the train ever again. They hugged each other and said, "We don't like the station. We don't like the train. We like the park. The park is nice and safe and fun." + +They decided to never go near the station again. They played in the park and forgot about the train. They were happy and not scared. +Lily and Tom like to play with trains. They have a big station with many tracks and trains. They can make the trains go fast or slow, and stop and start. They have fun making noises and stories with the trains. + +One day, they see a new train in the station. It is red and shiny, and has a big number on it. It looks very fast and strong. Lily and Tom want to play with it, but they do not know whose train it is. + +"Can we play with this train?" Lily asks Tom. + +"I don't know. Maybe it belongs to someone else. Maybe they will come back soon." Tom says. + +They look around, but they do not see anyone. The station is open, and there are other people and trains, but no one seems to care about the red train. + +"Maybe they forgot it. Maybe they don't want it anymore." Lily says. + +"Maybe. But maybe they will be sad if they lose it. Maybe we should return it to them." Tom says. + +They think for a moment. They really like the red train, but they do not want to make someone else unhappy. They decide to be kind and honest. + +They take the red train and look for a sign that says who it belongs to. They find a sign that says "Lost and Found". They put the red train there, and hope that someone will find it and be happy. + +They go back to their station and play with their own trains. They are proud of themselves for doing the right thing. They still like the red train, but they are happy with their trains too. They have fun making noises and stories with the trains. +Anna likes to play in the garden. She likes to look at the plants and the bugs. She likes to smell the flowers and touch the leaves. She likes to water the plants with her little can. + +One day, she sees a new plant in the garden. It is tall and green and has big yellow flowers. Anna thinks it is pretty. She wants to touch it. She walks to the plant and reaches out her hand. + +But the plant is not nice. It is a shake-plant. When Anna touches it, it shakes very fast. It makes a loud noise. It scares Anna. She lets go of the plant and runs away. + +"Mommy, mommy!" Anna cries. "The plant is bad! It shakes and makes noise!" + +Mommy hears Anna and comes to the garden. She sees the shake-plant and smiles. She knows what it is. It is a sunflower. It shakes when the wind blows. It makes noise when the bees buzz. + +"Anna, don't be afraid," Mommy says. "The plant is not bad. It is a sunflower. It shakes because it likes the wind. It makes noise because it has friends. The bees come to visit the sunflower and get honey. Do you want to see?" + +Anna is curious. She wipes her tears and nods. Mommy takes her hand and walks to the sunflower. She shows Anna the bees and the honey. She tells Anna that the sunflower is happy and friendly. She gives Anna a hug and a kiss. + +Anna feels better. She smiles and says, "I like the sunflower. It is pretty and sweet. Can I water it?" + +Mommy nods and says, "Yes, you can. The sunflower likes water too. It helps it grow and make more flowers. You are a good gardener, Anna." + +Anna is happy. She takes her can and waters the sunflower. She says, "Hello, sunflower. I am sorry I was scared. You are my friend. I will take care of you." The sunflower shakes and makes noise. It says, "Thank you, Anna. You are my friend too. I will make you happy." +Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to look for bugs and flowers. They saw a big mushroom under a tree. It was brown and round and had no hair on top. + +"Look, a bald mushroom!" Ben said. He pointed at it with his finger. + +Lily laughed. "That's not a bald mushroom, silly. That's a hat for a gnome." She pointed at a small statue of a gnome near the tree. It had a long beard and a pointy hat. + +Ben and Lily ran to the gnome. They tried to put the mushroom on his head. But it was too big and heavy. It fell to the ground and broke into pieces. + +"Oh no, we broke the mushroom!" Ben said. He felt sad. + +Lily felt sad too. She hugged Ben. "It's okay, Ben. We can find another mushroom. Maybe a smaller one. Or we can make a hat for the gnome with leaves and flowers." + +Ben smiled. He hugged Lily back. "You're right, Lily. That's a good idea. Let's make a hat for the gnome. He will be happy." + +Ben and Lily picked some leaves and flowers. They made a hat for the gnome. They put it on his head. It was green and colorful and had hair on top. + +"Look, a hairy hat!" Ben said. He pointed at it with his finger. + +Lily laughed. "That's a beautiful hat, Ben. You're very clever. The gnome likes it." + +Ben and Lily looked at the gnome. He had a big smile on his face. He winked at them with his eye. + +The end. +Anna and Ben are poor. They live in a small house in a big town. They do not have many toys or clothes. But they have each other and they love to play. + +One day, they find a shiny coin on the street. They are very happy. They want to spend the coin on something nice. They go to the market and look at all the things for sale. + +"Look, Anna, a red ball!" Ben says. "We can play with it in the park." + +"Look, Ben, a yellow hat!" Anna says. "We can wear it in the sun." + +They do not know what to choose. They like both the ball and the hat. They ask the man who sells them how much they cost. + +"One coin for the ball, one coin for the hat," the man says. + +Anna and Ben are sad. They only have one coin. They cannot buy both the ball and the hat. They do not want to fight. They want to share. + +They think for a while. Then they have an idea. They smile at each other and at the man. + +"Can we buy half of the ball and half of the hat?" they ask. + +The man is surprised. He has never heard such a question. He looks at the ball and the hat. He thinks for a while. Then he smiles too. + +"Sure, why not?" he says. "You are very clever and kind. Here, take half of the ball and half of the hat. And keep the coin. You deserve it." + +Anna and Ben are very happy. They thank the man and run to the park. They play with half of the ball and wear half of the hat. They do not care that they are poor. They have each other and they have fun. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, Tom gets a new toy car. It is big and red and shiny. He is very happy. + +He shows his toy car to Lily. He says, "Look at my new toy car! It is the best toy car ever. Do you want to play with it?" + +Lily looks at the toy car. She likes it too. But she does not have a toy car. She only has a doll. She feels jealous. She says, "No, I don't want to play with your toy car. It is not a good toy car. It is ugly and noisy and dirty. My doll is better than your toy car." + +Tom feels sad. He does not understand why Lily is angry. He says, "But my toy car is not ugly or noisy or dirty. It is new and clean and fun. Why are you mean to me? I thought you were my friend." + +Lily feels sorry. She knows she was mean to Tom. She does not really think his toy car is bad. She just wants one too. She says, "I'm sorry, Tom. I was not nice to you. I am your friend. I just feel jealous of your toy car. Can we share it?" + +Tom smiles. He is not mad at Lily. He likes to share. He says, "Of course we can share it. You can play with my toy car and I can play with your doll. We can have more fun together." + +Tom and Lily hug. They are happy. They display their toys to each other. They are good friends and good owners of their toys. They are not jealous anymore. +Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the zoo. They had a friend who worked there and let them see the animals. One day, they saw a big cage with a leopard inside. The leopard was flexible and could stretch and jump very high. Tim and Sam wanted to pet the leopard, but their friend said no. + +"It is not safe," their friend said. "The leopard is wild and can bite. You have to stay away from the cage." + +But Tim and Sam did not listen. They waited until their friend was busy and sneaked to the cage. They saw a key hanging on the wall. Tim took the key and put it in the lock. He turned the key and heard a click. He unlocked the cage. + +"Look, Sam, we can pet the leopard now," Tim said. + +He opened the cage door and reached his hand inside. The leopard saw Tim and growled. It did not like strangers. It showed its teeth and claws. It pounced on Tim and scratched his arm. Tim screamed and dropped the key. + +"Help, help, the leopard is hurting me!" Tim cried. + +Sam was scared and ran to get their friend. Their friend came and saw what happened. He grabbed a stick and pushed the leopard back into the cage. He locked the cage again and took the key. He helped Tim and bandaged his wound. + +"You were very naughty, Tim and Sam," their friend said. "You could have been killed by the leopard. You should never unlock a cage without permission. You should respect the animals and keep a distance. Do you understand?" + +Tim and Sam nodded and said sorry. They learned their lesson and never unlocked a cage again. They still liked to play in the zoo, but they only watched the animals from afar. They liked the leopard, but they knew it was not a pet. +Tim liked to play with his guitar. It was a big guitar that his dad gave him. It had thick strings that made sounds when he plucked them. Tim wanted to learn how to play songs like his dad. + +One day, Tim saw his dad playing his guitar in the living room. He was singing a happy song. Tim wanted to join him. He ran to his room and got his guitar. He came back and sat next to his dad. + +"Dad, can you teach me how to play?" Tim asked. + +"Sure, Tim. I'm glad you want to learn. Let me show you some chords. They are like shapes you make with your fingers on the strings. Look, this is a C chord. Can you copy me?" his dad said. + +Tim tried to copy his dad. He put his fingers on the strings like his dad. But it was hard. His fingers were small and the strings were thick. He could not make a good sound. He felt sad. + +"Don't worry, Tim. It takes time and practice to play the guitar. You have to gain some strength and skill. But you are doing great. You are a smart and brave boy. I'm proud of you. Do you want to keep trying?" his dad said. + +Tim nodded. He wanted to play like his dad. He wanted to make him happy. He wanted to have fun. He smiled and said, "Yes, dad. I want to keep trying. Can you play the happy song again?" +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the garden. One day, they found a shiny silver ring under a big rock. It was very bright and pretty, and they both wanted to have it. + +"Let me wear it, Lily!" Tom said. "It is mine, I saw it first!" + +"No, Tom, it is mine!" Lily said. "It is too big for your finger, and it matches my dress!" + +They began to pull and tug at the ring, trying to take it from each other. But the ring was very old and weak, and it broke in half with a snap. Tom and Lily looked at the broken pieces in their hands, and they felt very sad and sorry. + +They started to weep, and their tears fell on the ring. They wished they had not fought over it, and that they had shared it nicely. They hugged each other and said they were sorry. + +Just then, they heard a soft voice from the rock. It was a fairy, who had been hiding there. She had seen everything that happened, and she felt sorry for the twins too. + +"Don't cry, Tom and Lily," she said. "You have learned a good lesson today. Sharing is better than fighting, and kindness is better than greed. I will fix your ring for you, and give you a gift. But you must promise to always be good to each other, and to other people too." + +Tom and Lily nodded, and wiped their tears. They thanked the fairy, and watched as she waved her wand. The ring was whole again, and it sparkled even more than before. She put it on Lily's finger, and said, "This ring will always remind you of your love for each other. And look, I have another gift for you, Tom." + +She gave Tom a small silver pendant, shaped like a star. It was also very bright and pretty, and it matched the ring. She put it around his neck, and said, "This pendant will always remind you of your courage and honesty. And whenever you are in trouble, or need help, you can wish on it, and I will hear you." + +Tom and Lily were very happy, and they hugged the fairy. They thanked her again, and said they would always keep their promise. The fairy smiled, and flew away. Tom and Lily ran back to their house, holding hands. They showed their gifts to their mom and dad, and told them their story. Their mom and dad were very proud of them, and gave them a big hug. They all lived happily ever after. +Anna loves shrimp. She likes to eat them with rice and sauce. She thinks shrimp are yummy and pretty. She likes to look at their pink tails and tiny eyes. + +One day, Anna goes to the market with her mom. She sees a big tank with many shrimp. She wants to buy some for dinner. She asks her mom, "Can we get shrimp, please?" + +Her mom says, "Not today, Anna. Shrimp are too expensive. We have to save money for other things. Shrimp are not important." + +Anna feels sad. She thinks shrimp are important. She thinks they are her friends. She wants to take them home and play with them. She says, "But mom, shrimp are important to me. They make me happy. Can I have just one?" + +Her mom shakes her head. She says, "No, Anna. Shrimp are not toys. They are food. You can't play with them. They need water and air. If you take them home, they will die. You don't want that, do you?" + +Anna thinks for a moment. She doesn't want the shrimp to die. She wants them to live and swim. She says, "No, mom. I don't want that. I want the shrimp to be happy too. I'm sorry, shrimp. Maybe another day." + +She waves goodbye to the shrimp. She sees them wave back with their antennas. She smiles. She thinks maybe the shrimp are her friends after all. She says, "Thank you, mom. Let's go home." + +Her mom hugs her. She says, "You're welcome, Anna. You are a good girl. You are important to me." +Ben and Mia liked to play with their toy cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They made a town with blocks and boxes on the floor. They pretended to drive their cars around the town and talk to each other. + +"Beep beep, I am a red car. I am fast and strong. I can roll on any road," said Ben. + +"Beep beep, I am a yellow car. I am bright and happy. I can roll on any hill," said Mia. + +They had fun rolling their cars on the floor. But then they heard a loud noise. It was a scary noise. It sounded like a big monster. They looked up and saw a big shadow on the wall. It was their cat, Tom. Tom was curious and wanted to play with the cars. He jumped on the town and knocked down the blocks and boxes. He chased the cars and tried to catch them with his paws. + +"Meow, I am a cat. I am hungry and playful. I can roll on any toy," said Tom. + +"Ah, it is a scary cat. He is big and mean. He can roll on our town," said Ben. + +"Ah, it is a scary cat. He is hungry and naughty. He can roll on our cars," said Mia. + +They were scared and ran away from the cat. They hid under the table and hugged each other. They hoped the cat would go away and leave their town and cars alone. They wished they had a dog to protect them. They did not like the scary cat. They did not want to play with him. They wanted to play with their cars. +Tom and Lily were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were pirates and look for treasure. They used a big box as their ship and a map they drew with crayons. + +"Look, Lily, the map says the treasure is under the armchair!" Tom said, pointing to the blue armchair in the corner. + +"Let's go and dig it out!" Lily said, grabbing a spoon from the kitchen. + +They ran to the armchair and started to poke the spoon under the cushion. They hoped to find gold coins or jewels. + +But they did not know that Dad was sleeping on the armchair. He had a long day at work and was very tired. He did not like to be disturbed. + +"Ouch! What are you doing?" Dad shouted, waking up with a start. He saw Tom and Lily with the spoon and the map. He was very angry. + +"Sorry, Dad, we were looking for treasure!" Tom said, scared. + +"We didn't know you were there!" Lily said, sorry. + +Dad looked at their faces and saw they were not bad. They were just playing. He sighed and tried to calm down. + +"I know you were playing, but you have to be careful. You could have hurt me or the armchair. And you made a mess with the crayons and the box. Next time, ask me before you use my things, OK?" Dad said. + +"OK, Dad, we're sorry. We love you," Tom and Lily said, hugging him. + +"I love you too, but now you have to clean up and go to bed. It's late and you have school tomorrow," Dad said. + +"OK, Dad, good night," Tom and Lily said, putting away the spoon, the map and the box. They gave Dad a kiss and went to their room. + +Dad smiled and went back to sleep on the armchair. He dreamed of pirates and treasure. +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the bath. They have many toys: ducks, boats, cups, and bubbles. They make fun noises and splash each other. + +One day, they have a new game. They want to see who can fill their cup with water faster. They take turns to use the faucet. They say "ready, set, go!" and race to fill their cup. + +Lily goes first. She turns the faucet on and holds her cup under it. The water comes out fast and fills her cup in no time. She says "I win!" and shows her cup to Ben. + +Ben goes next. He turns the faucet on and holds his cup under it. But the water comes out slow and drips into his cup. He says "why is the water slow?" and looks at the faucet. + +Lily says "maybe the faucet is broken. Or maybe you are too slow!" and laughs. + +Ben does not like that. He says "I am not slow! You are mean!" and splashes Lily with his cup. + +Lily gets wet and angry. She says "stop it! You are mean!" and splashes Ben back with her cup. + +They start a splash war. They forget about the race and the faucet. They only care about making each other wet. They have fun and laugh. +Sara is a girl who loves to play with her dog, Max. Max is a big dog with brown fur and four legs. He is very adorable and friendly. Sara likes to hug him and throw a ball for him to catch. + +One day, Sara and Max go to the park with Sara's mom. There are many other children and dogs there. Sara sees a boy with a small dog that has only three legs. The dog is white and fluffy and has a pink bow on its head. + +"Hi, what is your name?" Sara asks the boy. + +"I'm Tom, and this is Lila," the boy says, pointing to his dog. + +"She is very cute," Sara says, smiling. + +"Thank you. She is a good dog, even if she has only three legs. She can still run and play," Tom says. + +"Can I pet her?" Sara asks. + +"Sure, she likes that," Tom says. + +Sara reaches out and gently strokes Lila's fur. Lila wags her tail and licks Sara's hand. Max comes over and sniffs Lila. They both bark and start to chase each other around the park. + +Sara and Tom laugh and watch their dogs have fun. They decide to be friends and share their toys and snacks. Sara's mom and Tom's dad smile and talk to each other. They are happy to see their children and dogs get along so well. +Sara was a little girl who loved to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite one was Lily. Lily had long pink hair and a soft wool dress. Sara liked to brush Lily's hair and tell her stories. + +One day, Sara's mom said they had to go to the store. Sara wanted to bring Lily with her, but mom said no. "Lily might get lost or dirty at the store," mom said. "You have to trust me and leave her here. She will be safe in your room." + +Sara felt sad and scared. She did not want to leave Lily alone. She hugged Lily and said, "Don't worry, Lily. I will be back soon. I love you." She put Lily on her bed and kissed her goodbye. + +At the store, Sara saw many things that made her happy. She saw candy, balloons, books, and toys. She even saw a new doll that looked like Lily, but with blue hair and a silk dress. Sara thought the doll was pretty, but she did not want it. She only wanted Lily. + +When Sara and mom came back home, Sara ran to her room. She was so happy to see Lily on her bed, just as she left her. She picked her up and hugged her tight. "I missed you, Lily," Sara said. "Did you miss me?" + +Lily did not answer, but Sara knew she did. She felt Lily's pink hair and wool dress and smiled. She trusted mom and she trusted Lily. They were her best friends. +Anna and Ben are excited to go to the park with Mom. They love to play on the swings, the slide, and the sandbox. They also like to look at the landscape, the trees, the flowers, and the birds. + +"Look, Mom, a big hill!" Ben says, pointing to a green mound in the distance. "Can we go there?" + +"Sure, why not?" Mom says, smiling. "Let's go for a walk and see what we can find." + +They walk along a path, holding hands, and see many things. They see a pond with ducks, a bridge with a stream, and a bench with a statue. They also see some rocks, some sticks, and some pine cones. + +"Can we collect some of these?" Anna asks, picking up a shiny rock. + +"Of course, you can," Mom says. "But be careful not to hurt yourself or the plants." + +They find a small bag in Mom's backpack and put some of their treasures inside. They keep walking until they reach the hill. + +"Wow, it's so high!" Ben says, looking up. + +"Let's climb it!" Anna says, pulling Ben's hand. + +They run up the hill, laughing and panting. They reach the top and kneel down to catch their breath. They look around and see the whole park and beyond. + +"It's so beautiful!" Anna says, pointing to the landscape. + +"I can see our house!" Ben says, pointing to a red roof. + +They hug each other and Mom and feel happy. They stay on the hill for a while, enjoying the view and the breeze. Then they go down and head back to the playground. They have had a wonderful day at the park. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big gate. The gate is pale and has many holes. + +"Let's go see what is behind the gate," Ben says. + +"OK," Lily says. + +They run to the gate and look through the holes. They see a big dog. The dog is black and has a loud bark. + +"Wow, look at the dog!" Ben says. + +"Hi, dog!" Lily says. + +The dog sees them and runs to the gate. He jumps and barks at them. Lily and Ben are scared. They run away from the gate. + +"Help, help!" they cry. + +A man comes out of the house behind the gate. He sees the dog and the children. + +"Sorry, sorry!" he says. "He is not a bad dog. He just wants to play." + +He opens the gate and calls the dog. The dog stops barking and runs to the man. He sits and wags his tail. + +"See, he is a good dog," the man says. "Do you want to pet him?" + +Lily and Ben are not sure. They look at the dog. The dog looks at them and licks his lips. + +"Maybe later," Ben says. + +"Maybe," Lily says. + +They say bye to the man and the dog. They go back to the park and play with their toys. They are happy. They do not go near the gate again. +Tim and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. Tim found a big spider with many legs. He was not afraid of spiders. He thought they were cool and friendly. + +"Look, Lily, I found a spider!" Tim said, holding the spider in his hand. "Do you want to see it?" + +Lily did not like spiders. She thought they were scary and mean. She screamed and ran away from Tim. She hid behind a tree and cried. + +"Please, Tim, put the spider away! I don't want to see it!" Lily said, sobbing. + +Tim felt sorry for Lily. He did not want to make her cry. He put the spider back in the dirt and went to Lily. He hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't know you were afraid of spiders. They are not scary. They are reliable. They help us by eating bad bugs. They relax in their webs and don't bother us. Do you want to relax with me?" + +Lily stopped crying and looked at Tim. She saw that he was kind and gentle. She trusted him. She nodded and said, "Okay, Tim. I want to relax with you. But please, no more spiders." + +Tim smiled and said, "Okay, Lily. No more spiders. Let's relax on the grass and look at the clouds. Maybe we can find some shapes that we like." + +They lay down on the grass and looked at the sky. They saw a cloud that looked like a bunny, a cloud that looked like a car, and a cloud that looked like a flower. They laughed and talked and forgot about the spider. They were happy and relaxed. They were good friends. +Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to splash in the pool and make bubbles. But then the sun went away and the sky became dark. It started to rain very hard. + +"Let's go inside, Lily!" Ben said. "We are wet and cold!" + +"OK, Ben!" Lily said. They ran to the house and took off their wet clothes. Mom gave them towels to dry themselves. She also gave them hot chocolate and cookies. + +They sat on the couch and watched a show on TV. But then they heard a loud noise outside. It was thunder. It made a boom sound that shook the house. + +Lily and Ben were scared. They hugged each other and hid under a blanket. + +"Mom, what is that noise?" Lily asked. + +"It's just thunder, sweetie," Mom said. "It's the sound of the clouds bumping into each other. It can't hurt you. It will go away soon." + +"Are you sure, Mom?" Ben asked. + +"Yes, I'm sure, honey," Mom said. "Don't worry. I'm here with you. You are safe and dry." + +Lily and Ben felt better. They snuggled with Mom and watched the show. They liked the show. It was funny and made them laugh. They forgot about the scary noise. They were happy. +Lila and Ben are twins. They like to play and eat food. One day, they see a big cake on the table. It looks yummy. They want to eat some. + +They climb on a chair and reach for the cake. But they do not see the cat. The cat is deaf. It cannot hear them. It is sleeping on the table, near the cake. + +The cat wakes up and sees the twins. It is angry. It hisses and scratches at them. Lila and Ben panic. They scream and fall off the chair. The cake falls too. It makes a big mess. + +Mom hears the noise and comes to the kitchen. She sees the cat, the twins, and the cake. She is not happy. She says, "What did you do? You should not touch the cake. It is for later. And you should not bother the cat. It is deaf. It cannot hear you. You scared it." + +Lila and Ben are sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We just wanted some cake. We did not know the cat was there. We did not mean to scare it." + +Mom sighs. She says, "It is okay. I forgive you. But you have to clean up the mess. And you have to wait for dinner. Then you can have some cake. And you have to be nice to the cat. It is old and deaf. It needs love." + +Lila and Ben nod. They say, "Okay, Mom. We will clean up. We will wait for dinner. We will be nice to the cat. We love you, Mom. We love the cat too." + +Mom smiles. She says, "I love you too, Lila and Ben. You are good twins. But next time, please ask before you touch the cake." +Ben and Lily were playing with their blocks. They wanted to make a big tower that reached the sky. They worked hard and put one block on top of another. They were very busy and did not see their mom come in. + +"Wow, what a great tower!" Mom said. "You are almost done. Do you need any help?" + +Ben and Lily shook their heads. They wanted to complete the tower by themselves. They only needed a few more blocks. They reached for the last block and put it on the top. They were so happy. They had made a tower that touched the sky! + +They hugged each other and looked at their tower. It was tall and colorful. They were very proud of their work. They showed their mom and she clapped her hands. + +"That is amazing!" Mom said. "You are very clever and creative. How about we take a picture of your tower and put it on the fridge?" + +Ben and Lily nodded. They liked that idea. They smiled and posed next to their tower. Mom took a picture and printed it out. She put it on the fridge with a magnet. Ben and Lily looked at their picture and their tower. They felt very happy. They had made something wonderful. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog with a bucket in its mouth. The bucket has a picture of a cake on it. + +"Look, Ben, a cake bucket!" Anna says. "Maybe the dog has cake inside. I want some cake. Cake is sweet and yummy." + +"Me too, Anna. Let's follow the dog and see," Ben says. They run after the dog, but the dog is fast. It goes to a house and jumps over a fence. + +"Oh no, the dog is gone," Anna says. "We can't get the cake bucket now." + +"Maybe we can ask the people in the house," Ben says. He knocks on the door. A lady opens it. She sees Anna and Ben and smiles. + +"Hello, kids. What are you doing here?" she asks. + +"Hello, lady. We saw your dog with a cake bucket. Can we have some cake, please?" Ben asks. + +The lady laughs. "That's not a cake bucket, kids. That's a paint bucket. My dog likes to play with it, but there's no cake inside. Only paint." + +"Paint?" Anna and Ben say. They look at each other and make a face. + +"Yuck, we don't want paint. We want cake," Anna says. + +"I'm sorry, kids. I don't have any cake. But I have some cookies. Do you want some cookies? They are sweet and yummy," the lady says. + +"Yes, please. We like cookies," Ben says. + +"Me too," Anna says. + +The lady gives them some cookies and milk. They sit on the porch and eat them. The dog comes back and wags its tail. It drops the paint bucket and licks their faces. + +Anna and Ben laugh. They pet the dog and share their cookies with it. + +"Thank you, lady. Thank you, dog. You are nice," Anna says. + +"You're welcome, kids. You are nice too," the lady says. + +They finish their cookies and milk. They say goodbye to the lady and the dog. They go back to the park and play some more. They are happy. They have a new friend. The dog with the paint bucket. +Sam and Tom were brothers who liked to play with their dad's things. One day, when dad was at work, they found his shaving kit in the bathroom. They saw a can of foam and a razor. They wanted to try them. + +"Let's make mustaches with the foam," Sam said. He sprayed some foam on his hand and rubbed it on his upper lip. He looked at himself in the mirror and laughed. "I look like dad!" + +"Me too, me too!" Tom said. He took the can and sprayed some foam on his hand. But he sprayed too much and the foam went all over his face and hair. He looked like a snowman. + +Sam laughed harder. "You look funny, Tom!" + +Tom was not happy. He tried to wipe off the foam, but it was sticky. He saw the razor and thought it would help. He picked it up and tried to shave off the foam. But he did not know how to use it. He cut his lip and it hurt. He started to cry. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom cried. "Sam, help me!" + +Sam heard Tom cry and ran to him. He saw the blood and the razor and got scared. He dropped the can and it rolled on the floor. He tried to comfort Tom and stop the bleeding. He felt guilty. He knew they had done something bad. + +"Shh, shh, Tom, it's okay," Sam said. "Don't cry, don't cry. I'm sorry, I'm sorry." + +They heard the door open and their mom come in. She heard them cry and ran to the bathroom. She saw the mess and the blood and the razor and got angry. She asked them what they had done and why they had played with dad's things. They tried to explain, but they could not. They knew they were in trouble. + +"Boys, boys, what have you done?" mom said. "You could have hurt yourselves. You should not play with dad's things. They are not toys. They are dangerous. You are very naughty. You have to wait for dad to come home and tell him what you did. He will not be happy. You have to say sorry to him. And to me. And to each other." + +Sam and Tom felt more guilty. They wished they had not played with dad's things. They wished they had not made mustaches with the foam. They wished they had not delayed their mom. They wished they had listened to her. They hugged each other and said sorry. They hoped dad would not be too mad. They hoped he would still love them. They hoped he would still let them play with him. They hoped he would still let them see his mustache. +Tom and Sue like to play with blocks. They build towers and houses and cars with the blocks. They have fun making different things with the blocks. + +One day, they decide to build a face with the blocks. They use two blue blocks for the eyes, one red block for the mouth, and four yellow blocks for the hair. They look for a block to use for the nose, but they cannot find one. + +"Where is the nose block?" Tom asks Sue. + +"I don't know. Maybe we lost it," Sue says. + +They look around the room, but they do not see the nose block. They are sad. They want to finish the face. + +Then, they see Dad coming into the room. Dad is bald. He has no hair on his head. He smiles at Tom and Sue. + +"Hi, kids. What are you doing?" Dad asks. + +"We are building a face with the blocks, but we can't find the nose block," Tom says. + +Dad looks at the face they made with the blocks. He laughs. + +"That's a funny face. But you know what? You don't need a nose block. You can use me as the nose," Dad says. + +He bends down and puts his nose on the face. Tom and Sue laugh, too. They think Dad is silly. + +"Look, we made a bald face with Dad's nose," Sue says. + +They hug Dad and thank him for being the nose. They are happy. They finish the face. +Lily and Ben are playing doctor and patient. Lily has a big toy x-ray machine that she got for her birthday. She wants to see what is inside Ben. + +"Ben, lie down on this table. I will use the x-ray to look at your bones and your heart and your tummy," Lily says. + +"OK, Lily. But don't hurt me. X-rays are scary," Ben says. + +Lily puts a big apron on Ben and turns on the x-ray machine. She sees a picture of Ben's body on a screen. She points at different parts and tells Ben what they are. + +"Look, Ben. This is your skull. It protects your brain. This is your spine. It helps you stand up and bend. This is your rib cage. It covers your lungs and your heart. This is your stomach. It digests your food. And this is your pelvis. It connects your legs to your torso," Lily says. + +"Wow, Lily. You are a very smart doctor. You know a lot of words. Can you see if I have any germs or worms in me?" Ben asks. + +Lily shakes her head. "No, Ben. X-rays can't see germs or worms. They are too small. X-rays can only see big things, like bones and organs. Germs and worms are microscopic. That means you need a microscope to see them," Lily says. + +"OK, Lily. I understand. Can we play something else now? X-rays are boring," Ben says. + +Lily turns off the x-ray machine and takes off the apron from Ben. She smiles and says, "Sure, Ben. What do you want to play?" + +Ben thinks for a moment and says, "How about zombies? We can pretend we are dead and then we come back to life and chase each other." + +Lily nods and says, "OK, Ben. That sounds fun. But don't bite me. Zombies are scary." + +They laugh and start to play zombies. They pretend they are dead and then they come back to life and chase each other. They have a lot of fun. +Tom and Lily love to watch the parade. They see big cars, funny clowns, loud drums and shiny flags. They wave and cheer with their mom and dad. + +One day, they have an idea. They want to make their own parade at home. They ask their mom and dad to help them. Mom and dad provide some things for them. They give them cardboard, paint, scissors, glue, tape, hats, whistles and streamers. + +Tom and Lily work hard to make their parade. They cut and paint the cardboard to make cars and animals. They glue and tape the streamers to make flags and tails. They put on the hats and whistles to make noise. They are very happy with their parade. + +They invite their mom and dad to watch their parade. They line up in the living room and march around the house. They blow their whistles, wave their flags and show their cars and animals. Mom and dad clap and smile. + +"Wow, you made a wonderful parade!" mom says. + +"Thank you, mom!" Tom and Lily say. + +"You are very creative and clever!" dad says. + +"Thank you, dad!" Tom and Lily say. + +They hug their mom and dad. They are very proud of their parade. They think it is the most successful parade ever. +Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is brown and fluffy. It has a red collar. + +"Hello, dog!" Sara says. She steps closer to the dog. She wants to pet it. + +"Wait, Sara!" Tom says. He is scared of the dog. He thinks the dog might bite. He pulls Sara's hand. "We don't know the dog. It might be bad." + +But Sara does not listen. She steps closer and closer to the dog. She reaches out her hand. The dog licks her hand. Sara laughs. She thinks the dog is nice. + +"See, Tom? The dog is good. It likes me. It is not bad." Sara says. She pets the dog's head. The dog wags its tail. + +Tom steps closer too. He sees the dog is not bad. He pets the dog's back. The dog licks his hand too. Tom laughs. He thinks the dog is nice too. + +A man comes to the park. He is the dog's owner. He has a white stick. He is deaf. He cannot hear. He smiles when he sees Sara and Tom. He signs to them. + +"Hello, kids. This is my dog. His name is Cream. He is deaf too. He cannot hear. But he can see and smell and feel. He likes you. You are kind to him." The man signs. + +Sara and Tom do not know how to sign. But they understand the man. They smile back. They point to themselves. + +"I am Sara. This is Tom. We are twins. We like Cream. He is fluffy and nice." Sara says. + +The man nods. He signs to Cream. Cream barks. He is happy. He likes Sara and Tom too. They are his new friends. +Ben and Mia like to bounce on the big bed. They jump and laugh and make funny faces. They bounce so high that they can touch the ceiling. They bounce so fast that they feel like flying. + +But there is a guard at the door. It is their dog, Rex. Rex is hungry and wants to play. He barks and scratches at the door. He wants to bounce with Ben and Mia. + +"Let Rex in!" Ben says. "He is our friend. He can bounce with us." + +"No, Rex is too big!" Mia says. "He will make the bed break. He will make us fall. He can't bounce with us." + +Ben and Mia argue. They stop bouncing. They are not happy. + +Rex hears them. He feels sad. He stops barking. He lies down at the door. He waits. + +Ben and Mia see Rex. They see his sad eyes. They feel sorry. + +"Maybe Rex can bounce with us," Ben says. "Just a little bit. He is our friend." + +"OK, Rex can bounce with us," Mia says. "But he has to be careful. He can't bounce too hard." + +Ben and Mia open the door. Rex jumps up. He wags his tail. He is happy. + +Ben and Mia let Rex on the bed. They bounce together. They are careful. They have fun. + +They bounce and laugh and make funny faces. They bounce so high that they can touch the ceiling. They bounce so fast that they feel like flying. + +They are happy. +Lila and Ben went to the beach with Mom and Dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. They saw many fish and shells and crabs. They were happy. + +But then, Lila felt something sting her foot. It hurt a lot. She looked down and saw a jellyfish. It was pink and slimy and had long tentacles. She screamed and ran to Mom. Mom hugged her and took her out of the water. + +"Mom, it hurts! It hurts!" Lila wept. She was scared and sad. + +"I know, sweetie, I know. It's a jellyfish. It can sting you. But don't worry, we'll make it better. We'll put some cold water and some cream on it. It will stop hurting soon." Mom said. She was calm and kind. + +Ben saw Lila weep and felt sorry for her. He wanted to help. He ran to the ice cream truck and bought a cone for Lila. He gave it to her and said, "Here, Lila. This is for you. It's cold and sweet and yummy. It will make you feel better." + +Lila smiled and took the cone. She licked it and felt the cold on her tongue. She thanked Ben and hugged him. She felt better. She was glad to have Mom and Ben. They were nice. She was happy. +Mia had a bad cold. She felt hot and her nose was runny. Mommy said she had to take a pill to feel better. But Mia did not like pills. They were big and hard and bitter. She did not want to swallow them. + +Mommy tried to make Mia accept the pill. She said, "Look, Mia, this pill is pink and shiny. It will help you get rid of the germs. If you take it, you can play with your toys later." But Mia shook her head and closed her mouth. She said, "No, no, no! I don't like pills!" + +Mommy sighed and looked around. She saw Mia's furry teddy bear on the bed. She had an idea. She said, "How about this, Mia? If you take the pill, I will give you a hug and a kiss and let you cuddle with your teddy bear. He is so soft and warm and he loves you very much. He wants you to be healthy and happy." She held the teddy bear in front of Mia and smiled. + +Mia looked at the teddy bear. She loved her teddy bear. He was her best friend. He always made her feel safe and cozy. She wanted to hug him and snuggle with him. She thought for a moment. She said, "OK, Mommy, I will take the pill. But only if I can cuddle with my teddy bear." + +Mommy was happy. She said, "Good girl, Mia! I'm proud of you. Here, take the pill with some water and then you can cuddle with your teddy bear." She gave Mia the pill and a glass of water. Mia swallowed the pill quickly and made a face. She said, "Yuck! It's nasty!" Mommy said, "I know, honey, but it will make you feel better soon. Now, here's your teddy bear. Give him a big hug and a kiss and I will tuck you in." She handed Mia the teddy bear and wrapped her in a blanket. Mia cuddled with her teddy bear and smiled. She said, "Thank you, Mommy. I love you and I love my teddy bear." Mommy said, "I love you too, Mia. And I love your teddy bear. Now, rest well and get well soon." She kissed Mia and the teddy bear and turned off the light. Mia closed her eyes and fell asleep with her teddy bear in her arms. +Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to find rocks and make shapes with them. Lila found a big rock that was round and smooth. She put it in her pile and said, "This is my rock. It is the best rock." + +Ben saw the rock and wanted it. He said, "No, that is my rock. I saw it first. Give it to me." He tried to grab the rock from Lila, but she held it tight. + +Lila and Ben started to fight over the rock. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not see the other children who wanted to play with them. They did not hear the birds who sang in the trees. They did not feel the sun who warmed their faces. They only cared about the rock. + +A lady who worked in the park saw Lila and Ben. She came over and said, "What are you doing? Why are you fighting over a rock? There are many rocks in the park. You can share them and play together. You are being selfish. That is not nice." + +Lila and Ben felt ashamed. They knew the lady was right. They said, "We are sorry. We were selfish. We will share the rock and play together." They gave the rock to the lady and said, "Thank you for helping us." + +The lady smiled and said, "You are welcome. I am glad you are friends again. Now, why don't you clap your hands and make some music with the rocks? That sounds like fun." + +Lila and Ben clapped their hands and picked up some rocks. They tapped and banged and made a rhythm. They laughed and sang and had fun. They were happy and not selfish. They liked to play in the park. +Sam and Mia liked to play with their toys. Sam had a red car that could zoom very fast. Mia had a yellow trumpet that could make loud noises. They liked to zoom and trumpet around the house and have fun. + +One day, they decided to play in the garden. They saw a big hole in the ground. It looked deep and dark. Sam and Mia wondered what was inside. + +"Let's zoom and trumpet into the hole and see!" Sam said. + +"OK, but be careful!" Mia said. + +They zoomed and trumpeted into the hole. They saw many things. They saw rocks and dirt and bugs and worms. They also saw a shiny thing. It was a coin. + +"Wow, look at this!" Sam said. He picked up the coin and showed it to Mia. + +"It's pretty!" Mia said. She touched the coin and smiled. + +They zoomed and trumpeted out of the hole. They were happy. They had found a treasure. They showed the coin to their mom and dad. They were proud. + +"Can we keep it?" Sam asked. + +"Of course, you can. It's yours. You found it!" Mom said. + +"Yay!" Sam and Mia said. They hugged the coin and each other. They zoomed and trumpeted around the house and had more fun. +Lila and Ben were twins who liked to play near the river. They knew the river was big and fast, and they had to be careful. Sometimes they saw fish and ducks in the water, and they threw stones and sticks for them. + +One day, they saw a small bird on the bank. It was brown and fluffy, and it had a hurt wing. It could not fly or swim. Lila and Ben felt sorry for the bird. They wanted to help it. + +"Let's take it home and make it better," Lila said. + +"No, we can't," Ben said. "Mom and Dad will be angry. They don't like animals in the house." + +"Then what can we do?" Lila asked. + +Ben looked around. He saw a big bush near the river. It had green leaves and red berries. He had an idea. + +"Let's put it in the bush," he said. "The bush will protect it from the sun and the rain. And maybe it will find some food there." + +Lila nodded. She picked up the bird gently and carried it to the bush. She made a soft nest for it with some grass and feathers. She stroked its head and whispered, "Don't be afraid, little bird. We will come back and see you tomorrow." + +The bird looked at them with its black eyes. It seemed to understand. It made a soft sound, like a thank you. + +Lila and Ben smiled. They felt happy and proud. They had helped the bird. They hoped it would get well soon. + +They waved goodbye to the bird and ran back to their house. They did not tell anyone about their secret friend. They were anxious to see it again the next day. +Lily did not like tests. She had to do a test today at school. She did not feel ready. She wanted to play with her toys and her friends. She frowned and put her head on the table. + +"Come on, Lily, it's time to do the test," her teacher said. "It's not hard. You just have to write some letters and numbers and draw some shapes. You can do it." + +Lily shook her head. She did not want to do the test. She was scared. What if she did not know the answers? What if she made a mistake? She felt a tear in her eye. + +Her teacher saw her tear and smiled. She gave her a hug and a sticker. "Don't worry, Lily, you are a smart and brave girl. You have learned a lot this year. You are ready for the test. And if you need help, I am here for you. You can do it." + +Lily looked at her teacher and the sticker. She felt a little better. She wiped her tear and nodded. She took her pencil and paper and sat at her desk. She looked at the test and tried to remember what she learned. She wrote some letters and numbers and drew some shapes. She did her best. + +When she finished, she gave her test to her teacher. Her teacher looked at it and smiled. "Well done, Lily, you did a great job. You got all the answers right. You passed the test. I am proud of you." + +Lily smiled and felt happy. She did it. She passed the test. She was ready. She thanked her teacher and got another sticker. She ran to her friends and showed them her test and her stickers. They cheered and hugged her. She liked tests now. +Ben and Mia were playing with blocks in their room. They liked to make tall stacks of different colors and shapes. Sometimes they pretended the stacks were castles or rockets or towers. + +One day, they found a big box of blocks in the attic. The blocks were old and dusty, and had strange pictures and letters on them. Ben and Mia wondered what they were. + +"These blocks are ancient," Ben said. "They are from a long time ago, when grandma and grandpa were little." + +"Maybe they are magic," Mia said. "Maybe they can do things if we stack them right." + +They took the box to their room and started to build with the ancient blocks. They made a big stack in the middle of the floor, with all the pictures and letters facing out. They hoped something would happen. + +Suddenly, the stack started to glow. It made a soft humming sound. Ben and Mia blinked their eyes. They could not believe what they saw. + +"Look, look!" Mia shouted. "The stack is talking to us!" + +The pictures and letters on the blocks changed into words they could read. The words said: "Hello, children. We are the blocks of wisdom. We can teach you many things. Do you want to learn?" + +Ben and Mia nodded their heads. They were curious and excited. They wanted to learn from the ancient blocks. They sat down next to the stack and listened. The stack told them stories and secrets and jokes. They laughed and asked questions and learned. They had fun with the ancient blocks. They did not want to stop. +Anna and Ben were bored. They did not want to play with their toys or watch TV. They wanted to go outside and have fun. But Mom said no. She said it was too hot and they had to stay inside. + +"Mom, please let us go out!" Anna begged. "We will not go far. We will stay in the shade." + +"No, Anna, it is not safe. The sun is very strong today. You might get sick or burned. You have to wait until it is cooler," Mom said. + +Anna and Ben did not listen. They waited until Mom was busy in the kitchen. Then they sneaked out of the door. They ran to the park across the street. They saw a big slide and a swing. They wanted to try them. + +They climbed up the slide and slid down. They pushed each other on the swing. They laughed and shouted. They did not see the sun getting higher and hotter. They did not feel their skin getting red and sweaty. + +They wandered around the park and found a pond. They saw some ducks and fish. They wanted to feed them. They looked for some bread or seeds. They did not find any. They saw a trash can. They opened it and saw some old food. They took some and threw it to the ducks and fish. + +They did not know that the food was bad. They did not know that the trash can was dirty. They did not know that they were making a mess. They did not hear Mom calling them. + +Mom came out of the house and saw that Anna and Ben were gone. She was very worried. She looked for them everywhere. She saw them at the park. She saw them by the pond. She saw them throwing trash. She was very angry. + +"Anna! Ben! What are you doing? Come here right now!" Mom yelled. + +Anna and Ben heard Mom. They turned around and saw her. They saw her face. She was not happy. She was mad. They saw their clothes. They were not clean. They were messy. They saw their skin. It was not white. It was red. They felt their bodies. They were not cool. They were hot. They realized they were in trouble. + +They ran to Mom and said sorry. They said they were bored and wanted to have fun. They said they did not mean to make a mess or get sick. + +Mom hugged them and said she loved them. She said she was glad they were safe. She said they had to go home and take a bath and rest. She said they had to learn to listen and obey. She said they had to be careful of the sun and the trash. + +Anna and Ben nodded and said yes. They said they learned their lesson. They said they would not wander away again. They said they would stay inside until it was cooler. They said they would play with their toys or watch TV. They said they would not be bored anymore. +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the living room. They have many toys and books. But their favorite thing is the couch. The couch is big and soft. They can jump on it, hide behind it, or pretend it is a boat. + +One day, they decide to make a fort with the couch. They use pillows, blankets, and chairs. They work hard and have fun. They make a door, a window, and a roof. They say, "This is our fort. No one can come in." + +Mom comes to see what they are doing. She sees the fort. She smiles. She says, "Wow, what a great fort! You are very clever. Can I come in?" Lily and Ben say, "Yes, Mom, you can come in. But you have to say the password." Mom says, "What is the password?" Lily and Ben say, "The password is couch." Mom says, "Couch." They say, "OK, you can come in." + +Mom goes inside the fort. She hugs Lily and Ben. She says, "I am very proud of you. You made a wonderful fort. You are very creative. Can I play with you?" Lily and Ben say, "Yes, Mom, you can play with us. We have books and toys. We can read and play." They all read and play together. They are happy. They love the couch. They love their fort. They love each other. +Lily liked to play with her toys, but she was very selfish. She did not like to share with her brother Tom, who was smaller than her. She always took his toys and hid them under her bed, or in her closet, or behind the sofa. She said they were hers and he could not have them. + +One day, Tom found a soldier toy in the garden. It was green and shiny and had a helmet and a gun. He was very happy and ran to show Lily. But Lily snatched the soldier from his hand and said, "This is mine! You can't play with it! Go away!" + +Tom was very sad and cried. He wanted his soldier back. He asked Lily to give it to him, but she said no. She put the soldier in her pocket and ran to her room. She locked the door and laughed. She thought she was very clever. + +But then, something strange happened. The soldier in her pocket started to move. It wriggled and squirmed and poked her. Lily was scared and took it out. She saw that the soldier was angry. He looked at her with a frown and said, "You are a bad girl! You are selfish and mean! You don't deserve to have me! I will vanish and you will never see me again!" + +Lily was shocked and tried to hold the soldier, but he slipped from her fingers. He jumped on the floor and ran to the window. He opened it and climbed out. He waved at Lily and said, "Goodbye, selfish girl! I will find a nice boy who will share me and play with me!" And then he vanished. He was gone. + +Lily was left alone in her room. She felt very sorry and ashamed. She wished she had not been so selfish. She wished she had shared her toys with Tom. She wished she had not taken his soldier. She cried and cried and cried. She hoped the soldier would come back, but he never did. +Ben and Lily were best friends. They liked to play games and learn new things. One day, their teacher gave them a quiz. It had questions about animals, colors, and shapes. Ben and Lily were good at quizzes. They knew many answers. + +But when they looked at the quiz, they saw something strange. Some of the questions had no words, only blank spaces. They looked at each other and wondered what to do. They asked their teacher, "What are these blanks?" + +The teacher smiled and said, "This is a special quiz. You have to use your imagination and fill in the blanks with any words you want. There is no right or wrong answer. Just have fun and be creative." + +Ben and Lily thought this was an impressive idea. They liked to use their imagination. They started to write words in the blanks. They wrote words like "dragon", "rainbow", and "cookie". They made up stories and jokes with their words. They had a lot of fun. + +When they finished, they showed their quiz to their teacher. The teacher was very happy and proud. She said, "You did a wonderful job. You have very impressive imaginations. You made the blanks vanish and filled them with magic. You are very smart and clever." + +Ben and Lily smiled and hugged each other. They were happy and proud too. They thanked their teacher and went to play. They decided to make more quizzes with blanks and fill them with their imaginations. They had the best day ever. +Mia liked to sing. She sang every day. She sang in the morning, in the afternoon, and at night. She sang to her toys, to her mom, to her dad, and to her cat. She sang happy songs, sad songs, and silly songs. + +One day, Mia decided to sing to the furniture. She went to the living room and sang to the sofa, the table, and the lamp. She sang, "Hello, sofa, you are soft and big. Hello, table, you are hard and round. Hello, lamp, you are bright and tall." + +The furniture did not say anything. They just listened to Mia's song.

She did not know the fridge could talk. She said, "Sorry, fridge. I did not mean to make you melt. I just wanted to sing to you and make you happy." + +The fridge said, "It's okay, Mia. I know you are a good girl. But maybe you can sing to someone else. Someone who likes your song more than me." + +Mia said, "Okay, fridge. I will sing to someone else.

He said to Tom, "No, Tom, no car! Car bad! Car loud! Car fast! Let's go back!" + +But Tom did not listen. He was too curious. He pulled the rope and said, "Come on, pig, don't be scared! It's just a car! Maybe it has something good inside!" + +The pig did not want to go. He tried to resist. He pulled the rope back. He squealed and kicked. He said, "No, Tom, no car! Car bad! Car loud!

They make a big mess. They have fun. + +But then they hear a voice. It is their parent. Their parent is not happy. Their parent says, "Tim and Kim, what are you doing? You are all messy. You have leaves in your hair and on your clothes. You need to clean up. Come here, now." + +Tim and Kim stop playing. They look at their parent. They look at each other. They say, "Sorry, parent. We were just having fun. We will clean up. Can we swing some more after?" + +Their parent sighs. Their parent says, "Yes, you can swing some more after.

The spider lived in a cozy little web in a corner of a room. + +One day, a little girl came into the room. She saw the spider and wanted to catch it, but her mommy said no. The spider was just trying to settle in its home. + +The little girl watched the spider for a while, and soon she realized that the spider was actually quite interesting.
