We like to play in the park. You have a nice shirt, Rex," Tom tells Rex. + +"Thank you, Tom. I like your shirt too. It is blue. Blue is my favorite color. Do you want to play with me?"

One day, they found a big jar of peanuts in the kitchen. They decided to eat some, but they did not ask their mom. + +"Yum, these peanuts are so good!" Tim said. + +"Let's eat more, they are crunchy and salty!" Sam said. + +They ate and ate, until the jar was almost empty. They did not see that their mom had a note on the jar. The note said: "Do not eat these peanuts! They are for dad's magic trick. He will make them disappear!" + +Soon, dad came home. He was happy to see his boys, but he was also excited to show them his magic trick. He went to the kitchen and looked for his jar of peanuts. He saw that it was almost empty. He was very angry. + +"Who ate my peanuts?" he shouted. + +Tim and Sam were scared. They hid behind the couch. They did not want to tell dad the truth. + +"I ate your peanuts, dad," a voice said. + +Dad turned around and saw his dog, Rex. Rex had a peanut in his mouth. He looked guilty. + +"Rex, you bad dog! You ate my peanuts!" dad said. + +He grabbed Rex by the collar and dragged him outside. He locked him in the shed. He said he would not let him out until he learned his lesson. + +Tim and Sam felt sorry for Rex. They loved their dog. They wanted to help him. They sneaked outside and opened the shed.

He was very messy and careless. + +Lily looked at Max's side of the room and frowned. "Max, you are making a big mess! You should put your things away nicely, like me. Grandma will not be happy if she sees this." Max shrugged and said, "I don't care. I like it this way. It's more fun." + +Lily shook her head and said, "No, it's not. It's hard to find your things when they are all over the place. And you might break something or lose something. And you might trip and hurt yourself. And you might make Grandma's cat angry if you touch her things." Max rolled his eyes and said, "You are such a bore. You always tell me what to do. I can do what I want. It's my bag and my stuff." + +Lily sighed and said, "Fine. But don't say I didn't warn you." She picked up her bag and zipped it up. She saw that the handle was broken. She gasped and said, "Oh no! How did this happen?" She looked at Max and saw that he had a guilty look on his face. He said, "Um, I might have pulled it too hard when I was taking out my things. Sorry." Lily was very upset and said, "Max, you are so careless! You broke my bag! How will I carry it now?" Max said, "I don't know. Maybe Grandma can fix it. Or maybe you can use one of her bags. Or maybe you can just leave it here." Lily said, "No, I can't do that. This is my favorite bag. Mom gave it to me for my birthday. I want to take it home with me." Max said, "Well, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to break it. It was an accident." Lily said, "An accident that could have been avoided if you were not so messy and careless. Now I have to tell Mom and Grandma what you did. And you have to say sorry to them too. And you have to help me clean up this mess. And you have to be more careful next time." Max said, "Okay, okay. I'm sorry. I'll help you. And I'll be more careful. I promise." Lily said, "Thank you. Now let's go and find Grandma and tell her what happened. Maybe she can help us fix the bag. And maybe she can make us some cookies. I'm hungry. Are you hungry?" Max said, "Yes, I'm hungry. And I love Grandma's cookies. Let's go." They held hands and walked out of the room. They hoped that Grandma would not be too mad at them. And they hoped that they would still have a fun sleepover. +Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with a raft in the pond. The raft is brown and big.

I wonder what kind of bird they are." + +"Maybe they are robins or bluebirds," Mia said. "They are very pretty. But we should not touch them.

"Maybe we can go there tomorrow and see if there are any fish or ducks." + +"That sounds fun," Mia said. "But we should go back now. It is getting late and mom will be worried." + +They packed their backpack and started to walk back. They said goodbye to the valley and thanked it for the adventure.

They like to eat worms and berries." + +Lily made a face. "Worms? Yuck!" + +Her dad laughed. "Don't worry, you don't have to eat them. But the birds love them. Maybe we can find some for them." + +Lily agreed. She and her dad looked for worms in the dirt. They found a few and put them near the tree. The baby birds squeaked happily and ate them. Lily and her dad felt proud and happy. + +They spent a long time in the park, watching the birds, the butterflies and the flowers. They had a lot of fun and learned new things. They also made friends with other people and animals. They forgot about the newspaper and the time. They only remembered how beautiful the day was. +Tom and Mia are playing in the park. They like to run and jump and slide. They see a big white dog near the trees. The dog is alert. He looks at them with his brown eyes. + +"Look, Mia, a dog!" Tom says. He likes dogs. He wants to pet the dog. + +"Wait, Tom, we don't know the dog," Mia says. She is careful. She remembers what Mom said. "We have to ask the owner first." + +They look around. They see a man sitting on a bench. He has a leash in his hand. He smiles at them. + +"Hello, kids. Do you like my dog?" the man says. He is friendly. He sees that Tom and Mia are curious. + +"Yes, he is very nice. What is his name?" Tom asks. + +"His name is Snowy. He is a good boy. Do you want to say hello to him?" the man says. + +"Yes, please!" Tom and Mia say. They walk to the dog. The man holds the leash. The dog wags his tail. He sniffs them. He licks their hands. + +"Snowy, you are so soft and warm!" Tom says. He pets the dog. He feels happy. + +"Mia, look, he has a spot on his ear!" Tom says. He points to the dog's ear. It has a black spot. + +"I see it. It is cute. He is a special dog," Mia says. She hugs the dog. She feels happy too. + +The man, the kids, and the dog are all happy. They play and talk in the park. They make new friends. They have fun. +Ben and Mia love to play in the pool. They have a big pool in their backyard. They put on their swimsuits and jump in the water. They splash and laugh and have fun. + +But then they see dark clouds in the sky. They hear a loud boom. It is thunder. They get scared. They run out of the pool and into the house. They dry off with towels and hug their mom. + +Mom says, "Don't worry, it is just a storm. It will rain for a little while and then it will stop. Rain is good for the plants and the animals. It makes everything grow and shine." + +Ben and Mia look out the window. They see drops of water falling from the sky. They see the pool filling up with more water. They see a bright flash. It is lightning. They hear another boom. It is thunder. + +They say, "Wow, rain is amazing. It makes noise and light and water. Can we go back to the pool when it stops?" + +Mom says, "Yes, you can. But you have to wait until the storm is over. And you have to be careful. The pool might be deeper and colder. And you have to wear sunscreen. The sun might come out and make you burn." + +Ben and Mia nod. They say, "OK, mom. We will wait and be careful. We love the pool. And we love the rain. They are both amazing." +Ben and Lily were twins. They liked to play in their bedroom. They had many toys and books and games. One day, they found a big jar of candy on their shelf. It was red and shiny and had a label that said "Do not eat". + +"What is this?" Ben asked. He was curious. + +"I don't know," Lily said. She was confused. "Maybe it is a gift from Mom and Dad." + +"Let's open it and see," Ben said. He was brave. + +He took the jar and twisted the lid. It made a loud pop. He smelled the candy. It smelled sweet and fruity. + +"Can we taste it?" Lily asked. She was hungry. + +"I don't know," Ben said. He was unsure. "The label says 'Do not eat'. Maybe it is bad for us." + +"Maybe it is a joke," Lily said. She was clever. "Maybe Mom and Dad want to surprise us. Maybe it is very yummy." + +She took a candy from the jar and put it in her mouth. She bit it. It was hard and sour and spicy. She made a face and spit it out. + +"Yuck!" she said. She was disgusted. "This is not candy. This is nasty." + +Ben laughed. He was amused. "You should have listened to the label," he said. "It says 'Do not eat' for a reason." + +Lily was angry. She was tricked. She threw the candy at Ben. He dodged it. It hit the wall and made a stain. + +"Hey, stop it!" Ben said. He was annoyed. "You are making a mess." + +They heard a knock on the door. It was Mom and Dad. They came in and saw the jar and the candy and the stain. + +"What are you doing?" Mom asked. She was surprised. + +"We found this jar of candy," Ben said. He was honest. + +"We tried to taste it," Lily said. She was sorry. + +"But it was not candy," Ben said. He was funny. "It was yucky." + +Mom and Dad smiled. They were amused. "That was not candy," Dad said. "That was a prank. We bought it for April Fools' Day. We wanted to fool you." + +Ben and Lily looked at each other. They were confused. "What is April Fools' Day?" they asked. +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the garden. They have a big pine tree there. They like to climb the pine tree and look at the birds and the sky. + +One day, they have a game. They want to see who can dress the pine tree faster. They have some old clothes and ribbons and hats. They run to the pine tree with their things. + +"I will dress the pine tree first!" Lily says. She is competitive. She likes to win. + +"No, I will!" Ben says. He is competitive too. He likes to win more. + +They start to put the clothes and ribbons and hats on the pine tree. They are fast and careful. They want to make the pine tree look nice and funny. + +But they are too competitive. They start to pull and push each other. They want to have more space and more things. They start to shout and cry. + +"Stop it!" Mommy says. She comes to the garden. She sees the pine tree and the twins. She is not happy. + +"What are you doing?" Mommy asks. "Why are you fighting? Why are you making a mess?" + +Lily and Ben stop. They look at Mommy. They look at the pine tree. They feel sorry. + +"We are sorry, Mommy," they say. "We wanted to dress the pine tree. We wanted to have fun. But we were too competitive. We were not nice to each other." + +Mommy hugs them. She says, "It is good to have fun. It is good to be competitive. But it is not good to fight. It is not good to make a mess. You have to share and be kind. You have to respect the pine tree too. It is a living thing. It does not need clothes and ribbons and hats. It needs water and sun and air." + +Lily and Ben nod. They say, "You are right, Mommy. We are sorry. We will share and be kind. We will respect the pine tree." + +They hug Mommy. They hug each other. They go to the pine tree. They take off the clothes and ribbons and hats. They put them back in the basket. They say, "Thank you, pine tree. You are beautiful. You are our friend." + +The pine tree does not say anything. But it seems to smile. It shakes its branches. It drops some pine cones. Lily and Ben pick them up. They say, "Thank you, pine tree. You are generous. You are our friend." + +They play with the pine cones. They have fun. They are not competitive. They are happy. +Tom and Lily were friends who liked to play with horses. They had many toy horses of different colors and sizes. They liked to pretend that they had a big stable where they kept their horses and took care of them. + +One day, Tom got a new toy horse. It was shiny and black and had a long mane and tail. Tom was very happy with his new horse and named it Star. He showed it to Lily and said, "Look at my new horse! It is the best horse ever! It can run fast and jump high and do tricks!" + +Lily looked at Star and felt jealous. She wanted a shiny and black horse too. She thought that Tom's horse was better than her horses. She said, "Your horse is not so special. It is just a toy. My horses are real. They have feelings and they love me. Your horse does not love you. It is just plastic." + +Tom felt angry and hurt. He loved his new horse and he thought that Lily was his friend. He said, "That is not true! My horse is real too. It loves me and I love it. You are just jealous because you don't have a horse like mine. You are a mean and bad friend!" + +Tom and Lily started to argue and shout. They did not want to play with each other anymore. They took their horses and went to different corners of the room. They turned their backs to each other and did not talk. + +But their horses did not like to see them fight. They wanted to play with each other and be friends. They nudged and neighed and tried to get Tom and Lily's attention. They wanted them to include them in their games and share their stable. + +Tom and Lily heard their horses and looked at them. They saw that their horses were sad and lonely. They felt sorry for their horses and for themselves. They realized that they were being silly and mean. They said, "We are sorry, horses. We are sorry, friend. We don't want to fight. We want to play and have fun. Can we be friends again?" + +Their horses nodded and smiled. Tom and Lily hugged and made up. They said, "Yes, we can be friends again. We like you and we like your horses. They are all beautiful and special. Can we play with them together and include them in our stable?" + +Their horses agreed and cheered. Tom and Lily brought their horses to the middle of the room and made a big stable. They played with their horses and with each other. They had a lot of fun and were happy. They learned to be kind and share and not be jealous. They were good friends and good horse owners. +Lily and Max were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big hill with many flowers. They wanted to climb the hill and smell the flowers. + +They ran up the hill and saw many colors. They saw red, yellow, pink and purple flowers. They smelled the flowers and smiled. They saw a big flower that was orange and black. It looked like a tiger. They wanted to touch the tiger flower. + +Lily reached out her hand and poked the tiger flower. She felt a sharp pain in her finger. She cried out loud. Max looked at her finger and saw a small hole. He saw a little bug fly out of the flower. It was a bee. The bee had stung Lily. + +Max hugged Lily and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. The bee hurt you. Let's go find mom. She will help you." He took her hand and they ran down the hill. They searched for mom in the park. They saw her on a bench. She had a bottle of water and a band-aid. + +Mom saw Lily and Max and said, "What happened, my loves?" She saw Lily's finger and said, "Oh, no. Did you poke a bee?" She took Lily's finger and washed it with water. She put a band-aid on it and kissed it. She said, "There, there. It will be better soon. Bees don't like to be poked. They are scared and they sting. Next time, be careful with the flowers. Some of them have bees inside." + +Lily nodded and said, "Thank you, mom. I'm sorry, bee. I won't poke you again." She hugged mom and Max. They all smiled and said, "We love you." They went back to play in the park. They had fun, but they did not poke any more flowers. +Sara and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were heroes who saved the world from bad guys. Sara had a red cape and Tom had a blue mask. They ran and jumped and laughed. + +But then they saw a big dog. The dog was black and brown and had sharp teeth. It barked and growled and chased a cat. The cat was scared and ran up a tree. The dog tried to climb the tree, but it was too big and heavy. + +"Let's go help the cat!" Sara said. She was brave and kind. She wanted to be a hero. + +"No, the dog is too scary!" Tom said. He was afraid and shy. He wanted to be safe. + +"Please, Tom, we have to try!" Sara insisted. She grabbed Tom's hand and pulled him towards the tree. She had a plan. + +They found a stick and a rope. Sara tied the rope to the stick and threw it over a branch. She made a swing. She told Tom to hold the stick and swing to the cat. Tom was nervous, but he trusted Sara. He swung to the cat and grabbed it. The cat was soft and warm and happy. + +"Good job, Tom!" Sara cheered. She swung back to the ground with Tom and the cat. The dog was angry and confused. It barked and jumped, but it could not reach them. + +"Let's go home, Sara!" Tom said. He was proud and relieved. He had been a hero. + +"OK, Tom, let's go home!" Sara agreed. She was happy and grateful. She had a friend. + +They walked home with the cat. They gave it some milk and a dry place to sleep. They told their mom and dad what they did. Their mom and dad hugged them and praised them. They were proud of their heroes. +Lily and Ben are busy playing in the park. They like to run, jump and slide on the grass and the swings. They see a big hill with a zip line. They want to try it. + +"Can we go on the zip line, please?" Lily asks her mom. + +"OK, but be careful. Hold on tight and don't let go," her mom says. + +Lily and Ben run to the hill. They take turns to put on the helmet and the harness. They climb up the ladder and get ready to zip. + +"Are you scared?" Ben asks Lily. + +"No, I'm excited. Are you?" Lily asks Ben. + +"A little bit. But it looks fun," Ben says. + +They push a button and zoom down the zip line. They feel the wind in their hair and the sun on their face. They laugh and scream with joy. + +But then, something goes wrong. Ben's harness gets loose and he falls off the zip line. He lands on a pile of leaves. He is not hurt, but he is scared and sad. + +"Ben, are you OK?" Lily shouts from the other end of the zip line. + +"I'm OK, but I don't like the zip line. It's too fast and too high. I want to go home," Ben cries. + +Lily's mom runs to Ben and hugs him. She checks if he has any scratches or bruises. She tells him he is brave and strong. + +"It's OK, Ben. You don't have to go on the zip line again. You can play something else. How about the slide or the sandbox?" she says. + +Ben nods and wipes his tears. He smiles at Lily and says, "Thank you for being my friend. Do you want to play with me?" + +"Yes, I do. Let's go to the slide. It's fun and safe," Lily says. + +They hold hands and walk to the slide. They forget about the zip line and have fun again. They are busy playing in the park. +Bee and Ant were friends. They liked to play and talk in the meadow. One day, they saw a big hive on a tree. It was full of honey and bees. + +"Wow, look at that hive!" Bee said. "The bees work very hard to make honey. They are busy and happy." + +"Work? Why do they work?" Ant asked. "Work is boring and hard. I like to play and have fun. Work is for silly bees." + +Bee felt sad. He liked to work and help his family. He wanted to show Ant that work was good and fun. He said, "Come, I will show you my hive. You will see how we work and play together. We are peaceful and kind." + +Ant agreed. He followed Bee to his hive. He saw many bees flying in and out. They were carrying pollen and nectar. They were making honey and wax. They were singing and dancing. They were smiling and waving. + +"Hello, Bee!" they said. "Who is your friend?" + +"This is Ant. He is my friend. He wants to see our hive," Bee said. + +"Welcome, Ant!" they said. "We are happy to have you here. Do you want to see how we work and play?" + +Ant nodded. He was curious and surprised. He followed the bees inside the hive. He saw how they made honey and wax. He saw how they stored and shared their food. He saw how they cared and protected each other. He saw how they had fun and learned new things. + +He realized that work was not boring and hard. Work was useful and rewarding. Work was a way of showing love and gratitude. Work was a part of being happy and peaceful. + +He felt ashamed. He had been wrong and rude. He had not understood the bees. He had not valued their work. He had not been a good friend. + +He said, "I'm sorry, Bee. I'm sorry, bees. I was wrong and rude. I did not understand you. I did not value your work. I did not respect your hive. You are amazing and wonderful. You work and play together. You are peaceful and kind. You are my friends. Can you forgive me?" + +Bee and the bees smiled. They said, "Of course, Ant. We forgive you. We are glad you learned something new. We are glad you changed your mind. We are glad you are our friend. You are welcome to our hive. You can work and play with us. You can share our honey and wax. You can be peaceful and kind with us." + +Ant was happy. He thanked Bee and the bees. He joined them in their work and play. He enjoyed their honey and wax. He became peaceful and kind with them. He learned to love and appreciate work. He learned to be a better friend. + +The moral of the story is: Work is not boring and hard. Work is useful and rewarding. Work is a way of showing love and gratitude. Work is a part of being happy and peaceful. We should respect and value the work of others. We should work and play together. We should be peaceful and kind with each other. We should be good friends. +Lily and Max liked to play with their kayak in the lake. They had a big rope to tie the kayak to a tree, so it would not float away. One day, they saw a new kayak on the shore. It was red and shiny, and had a funny paddle. + +"Wow, look at that kayak!" Max said. "Can we try it?" + +Lily shook her head. "No, Max. That is not our kayak. It belongs to someone else. We have to ask first." + +Max did not listen. He ran to the red kayak and untied it. He jumped in and grabbed the paddle. "Come on, Lily, it will be fun!" he shouted. + +Lily was scared. She did not want to get in trouble. She ran after Max and tried to stop him. "Max, no! That is wrong! You have to tie it back!" + +But Max was too fast. He pushed the paddle and the kayak moved away from the shore. He laughed and waved at Lily. "Bye, Lily! See you later!" + +Lily cried. She did not know what to do. She looked around and saw a man coming. He had a hat and a fishing rod. He was the owner of the red kayak. + +"Hey, kid, what are you doing with my kayak?" he yelled. He was angry. + +Max was scared. He tried to paddle back, but he did not know how. The kayak spun and wobbled. He dropped the paddle in the water. He was stuck. + +Lily ran to the man. She was sorry. She told him what happened. She said Max was her brother and he was naughty. She said they had their own kayak and they would never touch his kayak again. + +The man was still angry, but he saw Lily was telling the truth. He took his fishing rod and threw it in the water. He caught the paddle and pulled it back. He gave it to Lily and told her to paddle to Max and bring him back. + +Lily did as he said. She paddled to Max and helped him get in her kayak. She tied the red kayak to her kayak and paddled back to the shore. She gave the red kayak and the paddle to the man. She said she was sorry again. + +The man looked at Lily and Max. He saw they were scared and sorry. He sighed and smiled. He said it was okay. He said they were brave and honest. He said they could try his kayak another day, if they asked first. + +Lily and Max thanked him. They tied their kayak to the tree and hugged each other. They learned their lesson. They never touched things that were not theirs again. +Sam and Mia liked to play at the beach. They liked to make sand castles and splash in the water. One day, they saw a large boat on the sea. It had a big net and a flag with a picture of a shark. + +"Look, Sam, they are fishing for sharks!" Mia said. + +"Wow, I want to see a shark!" Sam said. + +They ran to the edge of the water and waved at the boat. The boat waved back and came closer. They heard a loud horn and a voice. + +"Hello, kids, we are shark researchers. We catch sharks and tag them and let them go. Do you want to see a shark?" the voice said. + +"Yes, yes, please!" Sam and Mia shouted. + +"Okay, but you have to be careful. Sharks are not toys. They have sharp teeth and strong tails. And you have to wait a little. We have to delay our work because of the storm. See the dark clouds? They mean rain and wind. We have to wait until they pass." the voice said. + +Sam and Mia nodded. They were excited but also a bit scared. They looked at the clouds and hoped they would go away soon. They wanted to see a shark, but they also wanted to be safe. They did not know that the storm was not the only thing that would delay their shark adventure. They did not see the shadow under the water, moving closer and closer to the boat. They did not hear the splash and the scream. They did not see the blood and the fin. They did not know that a shark had seen them too. +Timmy was a jolly boy who liked to play with his toys and make funny noises. He had a big bathrobe that was soft and warm and had a hood with ears. He liked to wear it after his bath and pretend he was a bear. + +One day, his mom said it was time to go to the park and meet his friends. Timmy was excited and ran to get his shoes and coat. But he forgot to take off his bathrobe. He put his coat over it and zipped it up. + +At the park, he saw his friends and ran to join them. They were playing on the swings and the slide and the sandbox. Timmy had fun and laughed a lot. But he felt very hot and sweaty under his coat and bathrobe. He wished he could take them off, but he was afraid his friends would laugh at him. + +Then, one of his friends, Lily, noticed something. She saw a bit of his bathrobe sticking out from his coat. She pointed at it and said, "Hey, Timmy, what's that?" + +Timmy felt his face turn red. He tried to hide it, but it was too late. Lily pulled his coat and saw his bathrobe. She gasped and said, "Timmy, are you wearing a bathrobe? Why are you wearing a bathrobe?" + +All the other kids heard her and looked at Timmy. They saw his bathrobe and started to giggle and tease him. They said, "Timmy is a bear! Timmy is a baby! Timmy is silly!" + +Timmy felt very sad and ashamed. He wished he had not worn his bathrobe. He wished he had not come to the park. He wished his mom had mentioned it. He ran away from his friends and cried. He wanted to go home. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. Sometimes they also help Mom and Dad with chores. Mom and Dad are happy when Anna and Ben are good. + +One morning, Mom and Dad are in the kitchen. They are making breakfast and coffee. Coffee is a drink that Mom and Dad like. It is hot and brown and smells good. Anna and Ben do not like coffee. They like milk and juice. + +Anna and Ben come to the kitchen. They see Mom and Dad with their cups of coffee. They are curious. They want to try coffee. They ask Mom and Dad if they can have some. + +Mom and Dad look at each other. They smile. They know that Anna and Ben will not like coffee. They say, "OK, you can try a little bit. But be careful, it is hot." + +Mom and Dad pour a little bit of coffee into two small cups. They give them to Anna and Ben. Anna and Ben hold the cups with both hands. They blow on the coffee to make it cooler. They sip the coffee. + +Anna and Ben make a face. They do not like coffee. It is bitter and strong. They spit out the coffee. They say, "Yuck! Coffee is bad!" + +Mom and Dad laugh. They say, "We told you. Coffee is not for kids. It is for grown-ups. Maybe when you are older, you will like coffee. But for now, you can have milk or juice." + +Anna and Ben nod. They put down the cups of coffee. They ask for milk and juice. Mom and Dad give them milk and juice. They drink them. They are sweet and refreshing. They say, "Milk and juice are good!" + +Mom and Dad hug Anna and Ben. They say, "We love you. You are good kids. You can try new things, but you do not have to like everything. It is OK to have different tastes." + +Anna and Ben hug Mom and Dad. They say, "We love you too. You are good Mom and Dad. You let us try new things, but you do not force us to like everything. It is OK to have different drinks." + +Mom and Dad, Anna and Ben are happy. They finish their breakfast and coffee, milk and juice. They get ready for the day. They have fun and learn new things. They are a happy family. +Lily liked to design things. She used paper, crayons, scissors and glue to make pictures, cards and toys. She was very good at design. One day, she wanted to design a cake for her mom's birthday. She asked her dad for help. + +"Dad, can I design a cake for mom?" she said. + +"Sure, Lily. That's a nice idea. But we need to go to the shop first and buy some things. Do you want to come with me?" he said. + +"Yes, please. I want to choose the things for the cake," she said. + +They went to the shop and bought flour, sugar, eggs, butter, milk, chocolate and sprinkles. Lily was very happy. She put everything in a big basket. She also saw a shiny teaspoon. She liked the teaspoon. She took it and put it in her pocket. She did not tell her dad. + +They went back home and started to make the cake. Lily helped her dad to mix the ingredients in a big bowl. She used the teaspoon to taste the batter. It was sweet and yummy. She was hungry. She wanted to eat more. + +"Lily, don't eat too much. We need to save some for the cake. And you will spoil your appetite for dinner," her dad said. + +"But I'm hungry, dad. And it's so good," she said. + +She did not listen to her dad. She ate more and more. She used the teaspoon to scoop the batter from the bowl. She did not see that the teaspoon had a sharp edge. She cut her tongue with the teaspoon. She felt a lot of pain. She started to cry. + +"Ow, ow, ow! It hurts, dad. It hurts!" she said. + +Her dad saw the blood in her mouth. He saw the teaspoon in her hand. He was angry and worried. + +"Lily, what did you do? Where did you get that teaspoon? Did you take it from the shop without paying?" he said. + +He took the teaspoon from her and threw it in the trash. He took her to the bathroom and washed her mouth. He put a band-aid on her tongue. He called her mom and told her what happened. + +Lily felt very bad. She was sorry for taking the teaspoon. She was sorry for eating the batter. She was sorry for hurting her tongue. She was sorry for ruining the cake. She was sorry for making her dad and mom angry. She wished she had listened to her dad. She wished she had not tried to design a cake. She wished she had a happy birthday for her mom. But she did not. She had a bad day. She had a bad ending. +Tom and Mia were playing in the park. They saw a big shiny thing on a bench. It looked like a cup with a star on top. + +"Wow, what is that?" Tom asked. + +"Maybe it is a trophy. Someone won a game and left it here," Mia said. + +They ran to the bench and picked up the trophy. It was heavy and cold. They saw some words on it, but they could not read them. + +"Let's pretend we won the trophy. We are the best players in the park!" Tom said. + +They took turns holding the trophy and cheering. They felt very happy and proud. + +But then, a man came to the bench. He looked angry and sad. He had a hat and a coat. He recognized the trophy. It was his. + +"Hey, that's mine! Give it back!" he shouted. + +Tom and Mia were scared. They dropped the trophy and ran away. + +The man picked up the trophy and hugged it. He cried. The trophy was for his son, who was dead. He had died in a car crash. The trophy was the last thing he had from him. He had put it on the bench to rest for a moment. He missed his son very much. +Lily and Tom went to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and zebras. But Lily and Tom liked the kangaroos best. They hopped and jumped and played in their big yard. + +"Can we seat near the kangaroos, Mom?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, honey. Let's find a bench and watch them for a while," Mom said. + +They found a bench and sat down. Lily and Tom had some snacks in their backpacks. They took out some crackers and cheese and ate them. They also had some lemonade in their bottles. + +"Can I have some lemonade, Lily?" Tom asked. + +"OK, but it is sour. I don't like it much," Lily said. + +She gave Tom her bottle. Tom took a sip and made a funny face. + +"Yuck! It is sour! It makes my mouth hurt," Tom said. + +He gave the bottle back to Lily. They both looked at the kangaroos again. + +"Look, Lily! That kangaroo has a baby in her pouch. How cute!" Tom said. + +Lily smiled and nodded. She liked the baby kangaroo too. She wished she could touch it and hug it. + +"Maybe we can come back to the zoo another day and feed the kangaroos some carrots. They like carrots, right?" Lily said. + +"I think so. Carrots are sweet and crunchy. Not like sour lemonade," Tom said. + +They both laughed and finished their snacks. They thanked Mom and Dad for taking them to the zoo. They had a lot of fun. They liked the kangaroos best. +Lily and Max were twins who lived on a big ranch with many animals. They liked to play with the horses, the cows, the chickens and the dogs. They also liked to help their mom and dad with the chores, like feeding the animals, collecting the eggs and milking the cows. + +One day, they decided to explore a new part of the ranch. They walked past the barn, the pond and the fence, until they reached a hill. They climbed up the hill and saw a big tree with a swing. They ran to the tree and took turns on the swing. They felt the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They laughed and shouted, "Wee!" + +Suddenly, they heard a loud scream from behind the tree. They stopped swinging and looked around. They saw a little girl with curly hair and a pink dress. She was crying and holding her knee. She had fallen off her bike and scraped her knee. She was scared and alone. + +Lily and Max ran to the girl and asked her, "Are you OK? What is your name? Where are your mom and dad?" + +The girl sniffed and said, "My name is Anna. I live in the town. I came here with my mom and dad, but I got lost. I was looking for them, but I fell off my bike. It hurts!" + +Lily and Max felt sorry for Anna. They said, "Don't worry, Anna. We will help you. We live on this ranch. We can take you to our mom and dad. They will take care of you and call your mom and dad. Come with us." + +They helped Anna get up and put her bike on the swing. They held her hands and walked with her down the hill. They saw their mom and dad waiting for them by the fence. They waved and called, "Mom! Dad! We found a new friend!" + +Their mom and dad smiled and hugged them. They said, "You are very brave and kind, Lily and Max. You are very lucky to have each other and to live on this ranch. And you are very lucky to have a new friend, Anna. Let's go inside and clean your knee, Anna. Then we can have some cookies and milk and call your mom and dad." + +Lily and Max nodded and smiled. They said, "Yes, we are very lucky. And we are very happy." They followed their mom and dad inside, with Anna and her bike. They became good friends and played together on the ranch. They never forgot that day. +Lily and Sam were playing in the park. They liked to run, jump and slide on the grass and the swings. They saw a big crane near the road. The crane was lifting heavy things and putting them on a truck. + +"Wow, look at that crane!" Sam said. "It is so big and strong!" + +Lily nodded. She thought the crane was beautiful. It had a long neck and a shiny yellow body. She wanted to see it closer. + +"Let's go there!" she said. She took Sam's hand and ran towards the crane. + +But they did not see the sign that said "Danger. Keep out." They did not hear the man who was working with the crane. He saw them and yelled. + +"Hey, kids! Stop! You can't go there! It is not safe!" + +Lily and Sam heard the yell and stopped. They were scared. They did not know what to do. + +The man came to them and said. "You are very lucky. The crane could have hurt you. You should never go near a crane without a grown-up. Do you understand?" + +Lily and Sam nodded. They felt sorry. They did not want to make the man angry. + +The man smiled and said. "It's okay. I know you were curious. But you have to be careful. The crane is not a toy. It is a tool. Do you want to see how it works?" + +Lily and Sam nodded again. They liked to learn new things. + +The man showed them how the crane moved and lifted things. He explained what the crane was for and how he used it. He let them touch the crane and ask questions. + +Lily and Sam were happy. They thanked the man and said goodbye. They learned a lot about the crane. They still thought it was beautiful, but they also knew it was dangerous. They promised to never go near a crane without a grown-up again. +Sara and Tom wanted to go to the theater with their mom. They liked to watch movies on the big screen. But mom said they had to behave well or they would go home. + +Sara and Tom nodded and promised to be good. They got in the car and drove to the theater. Mom bought them popcorn and juice. They found their seats and waited for the movie to start. + +But Tom was bored. He did not like to sit still. He started to kick the seat in front of him. The man who sat there turned around and said, "Stop that, kid. You are bothering me." + +Tom did not stop. He kicked harder. The man got angry and said, "That's it. I'm telling your mom." He got up and walked to mom. + +Sara saw what was happening. She was scared. She did not want to go home. She grabbed Tom's leg and said, "Tom, stop it. You are being crazy. You are ruining the movie for everyone. Mom will be mad at us." + +Tom looked at Sara. He saw her sad face. He felt sorry. He stopped kicking. He said, "Sorry, Sara. You are right. I was being crazy. I don't want to go home. I want to watch the movie." + +Mom came back with the man. The man said, "Your son was kicking my seat. He was very rude." Mom said, "I'm sorry, sir. He won't do it again. He knows he was wrong." She looked at Tom and said, "Tom, you have to behave well in the theater. It is not nice to disturb other people. Do you understand?" + +Tom nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I understand. I'm sorry. I will behave well." Mom smiled and said, "Thank you, Tom. I'm glad you learned your lesson. Now let's enjoy the movie." + +Sara and Tom hugged mom and said, "We love you, mom." Mom hugged them back and said, "I love you too, kids. Now let's watch the movie." + +The movie started and they all watched it happily. Sara and Tom learned that they had to respect other people and follow the rules in the theater. They also learned that they had to listen to their mom and be good. They had fun and they were proud of themselves. They behaved well. +Lily and Tom were enthusiastic to bake a cake with Mom. They put on their aprons and washed their hands. Mom showed them how to measure the flour, sugar, eggs and butter. They took turns to stir the batter in a big bowl. + +"Can I lick the spoon, Mom?" Lily asked. + +"Me too, me too!" Tom said. + +"Sure, you can both have a taste, but don't eat too much. We need to save some for the cake," Mom said. She poured the batter into a round pan and put it in the oven. + +They waited for the cake to bake. They heard a loud noise outside. They looked out the window and saw a storm. The sky was dark and the wind was strong. They saw rain and lightning and thunder. + +"Wow, look at the storm!" Lily said. + +"It's scary!" Tom said. + +"Don't worry, we are safe inside. The storm will pass soon," Mom said. She hugged them and smiled. "And we have a yummy cake to enjoy!" + +They smelled the cake and heard the timer beep. Mom took the cake out of the oven and let it cool. She spread some frosting and sprinkles on top. She cut three slices and gave one to each of them. + +"Mmm, this is the best cake ever!" Lily said. + +"Thank you, Mom, for baking with us!" Tom said. + +"You're welcome, my sweeties. I love baking with you too," Mom said. They ate their cake and watched the storm go away. They felt happy and cozy. +Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making things with their blocks, cars, dolls and animals. They also had a big bottle of glue that they used to stick things together. + +"Look, I made a house for my doll!" Lily said, showing Tom her creation. She had glued some blocks and a paper roof on a cardboard box. + +"That's very nice, Lily. Can I make one too?" Tom asked. + +"Sure, here's some glue and blocks. But be careful, don't spill the glue. It's very sticky and messy." Lily warned. + +Tom nodded and started to make his own house. He glued some blocks and a paper roof on another cardboard box. He also glued some brown paper to make a door and a window. He was very proud of his work. + +"Look, I made a house for my car!" Tom said, showing Lily his creation. He had made a garage for his red car. + +"That's very cool, Tom. I like your brown door and window. Can I put my doll in your garage?" Lily asked. + +"OK, but only for a little while. Then I want my car back." Tom agreed. + +They put their toys in each other's houses and pretended they were neighbors. They had a lot of fun talking and playing. + +Suddenly, they heard a knock on the door. It was their mom. She had arrived from the store with some groceries. + +"Hi, kids. What are you doing?" She asked, smiling. + +"We're playing with our houses. We made them with glue and blocks and paper." Lily said, pointing to their creations. + +"They look very nice. You're very creative. But what's this?" Mom asked, noticing a big puddle of glue on the floor. + +"Oh, no. We spilled some glue. We're sorry, mom." Tom said, looking guilty. + +"That's OK, accidents happen. But we need to clean it up before it dries. Come on, let's get some paper towels and water." Mom said, taking the bottle of glue. + +"OK, mom. We'll help you." Tom and Lily said, following her. + +They helped mom clean up the glue from the floor. They also put away their toys and their houses. They thanked mom for the groceries and gave her a hug. + +"Thank you for playing with me, Tom. Your house was very cool." Lily said. + +"Thank you for playing with me, Lily. Your house was very nice." Tom said. + +They smiled at each other and went to have a snack. They were happy and hungry. They had a good day. +Tom and his mom went to a hotel for a holiday. They had a big room with a bed, a sofa, and a TV. Tom liked the hotel. He wanted to explore and see new things. + +One day, Tom saw an elderly man in the hall. The man had a long beard and a hat. He was holding a sharp knife. Tom was curious. He went to the man and said, "Hello, what are you doing with that knife?" + +The man smiled and said, "Hello, little boy. I am a chef. I work in the hotel kitchen. I use this knife to cut food. Do you like food?" + +Tom nodded and said, "Yes, I like food. What food do you make?" + +The man said, "I make many kinds of food. I make soup, salad, pasta, pizza, cake, and more. Do you want to see?" + +Tom said, "Yes, please. Can I see the kitchen?" + +The man said, "Sure, come with me. But be careful. The knife is sharp. It can hurt you. You have to hold my hand." + +Tom held the man's hand and followed him to the kitchen. He saw many pots, pans, spoons, forks, and plates. He saw many people working and cooking. He smelled many good smells. He was happy. He thanked the man and said, "You are a good chef. I like the kitchen." + +The man said, "You are welcome. I like you. You are a good boy. Do you want to taste some food?" + +Tom said, "Yes, please. I am hungry." + +The man gave Tom a slice of pizza and a piece of cake. Tom ate them and said, "Yummy. They are delicious. Thank you." + +The man said, "You are welcome. Enjoy your holiday. And remember, be careful with sharp things." + +Tom said, "OK. I will. Bye." + +Tom went back to his room and told his mom about the chef and the kitchen. His mom was glad that he had fun and learned something new. She hugged him and said, "I love you, Tom." + +Tom said, "I love you, too, mom." +Lily and Tom were playing in the attic. They liked to look at the old things that their grandma had. They saw a big box with a shiny lock. They wanted to open it and see what was inside. + +"Maybe there is a treasure!" Tom said. + +"Or a toy!" Lily said. + +They tried to pull the lock, but it was too hard. They looked for a key, but they could not find one. They saw a hammer on the floor. Tom had an idea. + +"Let's use the hammer to break the lock!" he said. + +He picked up the hammer and swung it at the lock. But he missed and hit the box instead. The box made a loud noise and cracked open. Lily and Tom looked inside. They saw a radio. + +"Wow, a radio!" Lily said. "Can we play with it?" + +Tom nodded. He took out the radio and put it on the floor. It was old and delicate. It had buttons and dials and a speaker. Tom turned a dial and the radio made a sound. + +"Hello, hello, this is the BBC World Service, broadcasting from London," a voice said. + +Lily and Tom were amazed. They had never heard a voice like that before. They listened to the voice and tried to understand what it was saying. + +But then they heard another noise. It was their grandma. She was coming up the stairs. She sounded angry. + +"What are you doing up there?" she shouted. "You are making too much noise!" + +Lily and Tom looked at each other. They knew they were in trouble. They had broken the box and the radio. They had played with something that was not theirs. They had made their grandma mad. + +They quickly hid the radio under a blanket and ran to the door. They hoped their grandma would not see what they had done. They hoped she would not be too mad at them. They hoped they could play with the radio again. +Sam and Lily are playing with their cars on the floor. Sam has a red car and Lily has a blue car. They make sounds like vroom and beep as they move their cars around. + +"Let's have a race!" Sam says. "The first car to touch the wall wins!" + +"Okay!" Lily says. "Ready, set, go!" + +They push their cars as fast as they can. Sam's car is a little bit faster than Lily's car. He is almost at the wall when he sees a big ball in his way. He tries to go around it, but he bumps into it and his car falls over. + +Lily's car zooms past Sam's car and touches the wall. She jumps up and claps her hands. + +"I win! I win!" she shouts. "That's my victory!" + +Sam feels sad. He picks up his car and rubs it gently. He likes his car very much. He does not like to lose. + +"Hey, don't be sad," Lily says. "It was just a game. You can try again." + +She gives him a hug and a smile. She likes Sam very much. She does not like to see him sad. + +"Thanks, Lily," Sam says. "You are a good friend. And you have a fast car." + +They hug and smile. They are happy again. They decide to play another game. They look for something light and soft to throw at each other. They find some pillows and start a pillow fight. They laugh and have fun. They are good friends. +Lily and Ben were going to the zoo with their mom. They had to take a bus to get there. Lily was very excited to see the animals, but Ben was a little scared. He did not like loud noises or big crowds. + +When they got on the bus, Lily ran to the window seat and looked outside. She saw cars, trees, shops, and people. She waved at some of them and smiled. Ben followed her slowly and sat next to her. He held his mom's hand and looked down. He hoped the bus ride would be short and quiet. + +But the bus ride was not short and quiet. It was long and noisy. The bus driver had to stop and start many times because of the traffic. The bus horn honked loudly and made Ben jump. The other passengers talked and laughed and played music. Ben felt dizzy and scared. He wished he could freeze and not move or hear anything. + +Lily saw that Ben was not happy. She wanted to help him. She remembered that Ben liked to play with his toy cars at home. She had a small car in her backpack. She took it out and gave it to Ben. She said, "Look, Ben, I have a car for you. You can pretend it is your bus. You can make it go fast or slow, or stop and start. You can honk the horn or say hello to the people. You can have fun with your car." + +Ben looked at the car. It was red and shiny. He liked it. He smiled at Lily and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister. I like your car. I will play with it." He took the car and started to move it on his lap. He made it go fast and slow, and stop and start. He honked the horn softly and said hello to the people. He had fun with his car. + +Lily was happy to see Ben happy. She hugged him and said, "You are welcome, Ben. You are a good brother. I like your car too. We can share it. We will have more fun at the zoo. We will see the animals and learn their names. We will have a great day." + +Ben hugged her back and said, "Yes, Lily. We will have a great day. I am not scared anymore. I am excited to see the animals and learn their names. We will have a great day." He looked out the window and saw the zoo sign. He said, "Look, Lily, we are here. We made it. Let's go see the animals." + +Lily and Ben got off the bus with their mom. They were both happy and excited. They ran to the zoo gate and showed their tickets. They entered the zoo and started their adventure. They were not clumsy or scared. They were brave and curious. They had a great day. +Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the garden. They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving cars and trucks. Lily had a red car and Ben had a blue truck. They zoomed and honked and laughed. + +But then they heard a loud noise in the sky. They looked up and saw a big aeroplane. It was white and shiny and had two wings. It made a whoosh sound as it flew over their heads. + +"Wow, look at that!" Ben said. "I want to fly in an aeroplane one day. Do you, Lily?" + +"Yes, me too!" Lily said. "But where is it going?" + +They watched the aeroplane until it disappeared behind the clouds. They wondered what it was like inside and who was on it. + +They went back to playing with their toys. But they did not know that the aeroplane was not a nice one. It was a bad one. It had a mean man on it who wanted to do something bad. He had a bomb in his bag and he wanted to make it go boom. + +He waited until the aeroplane was over a big city. Then he opened his bag and took out the bomb. It was black and round and had wires and a clock. It was filthy and smelled bad. He set the clock to go off in five minutes. He smiled a wicked smile. + +He did not care that he would disturb many people and hurt them. He did not care that he would make a big mess and a big fire. He did not care that he was doing something very wrong. He was a bad man. + +But he did not know that there was a good man on the aeroplane too. He was a policeman and he had a gun. He saw the bad man with the bomb and he knew what he was doing. He did not like it. He wanted to stop him. + +He got up from his seat and walked towards the bad man. He said in a loud voice, "Stop! Put down the bomb! You are under arrest!" + +The bad man was surprised and scared. He tried to run away, but the policeman was faster. He grabbed him and wrestled him to the ground. He took the bomb from him and threw it out of the window. It fell into the sea and went boom. But no one was hurt. + +The policeman handcuffed the bad man and took him to the front of the aeroplane. He told the pilot what had happened and asked him to land at the nearest airport. He said he would take the bad man to jail. + +The other people on the aeroplane were very grateful and happy. They thanked the policeman and clapped for him. They said he was a hero. + +Lily and Ben did not see the bomb or the policeman or the bad man. They only saw the aeroplane fly away. They did not know what had happened. They only knew that they liked aeroplanes and they wanted to fly in one one day. They hoped they would meet a nice policeman and not a bad man. They hoped they would have a good time and not disturb anyone. They hoped they would have a clean and shiny aeroplane and not a filthy and smelly one. They hoped they would be good and not bad. They hoped they would be happy and not sad. +Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big cage with a chubby tiger inside. The tiger was sleeping on the grass. Anna wanted to see the tiger better. She went close to the cage and said, "Hello, tiger. You are so big and cute. Can I touch you?" + +Ben was scared. He said, "No, Anna, don't do that. The tiger might wake up and bite you. He is not a pet. He is wild. Come back here." + +But Anna did not listen. She put her hand through the bars of the cage and tried to touch the tiger's fur. The tiger opened his eyes and saw Anna's hand. He growled and showed his sharp teeth. He tried to grab Anna's hand with his paw. + +Anna screamed and pulled her hand back. She ran away from the cage and hugged Ben. She was crying and shaking. She said, "I'm sorry, Ben. I was wrong. The tiger is not cute. He is mean and scary. I will never do that again." + +Ben hugged Anna and said, "It's okay, Anna. I'm glad you are safe. The tiger is not mean. He is just protecting his home. He does not like strangers. We should leave him alone and play somewhere else." + +Anna nodded and said, "Yes, Ben. Let's go and play with the swings. They are fun and safe." + +They held hands and walked away from the cage. The tiger watched them go and closed his eyes again. He was tired and hungry. He hoped his keeper would come soon and give him some meat. He did not like the park. He missed his jungle. +Lily was a daughter who liked to play with her toys. She had many toys of different colors and shapes. She liked to scatter them on the floor and make stories with them. She had dolls, cars, blocks, and animals. + +One day, she was playing with her toys in her room, when she heard a loud noise. She looked out the window and saw a big truck. The truck was making a lot of smoke and noise. It was coming to her house. Lily was scared and curious. She ran to the door and opened it. + +"Mommy, mommy, what is that?" she asked. + +Her mommy was in the kitchen, making a cake. She heard Lily's voice and came to the door. She saw the truck and smiled. + +"That is a moving truck, Lily. It is here to help us move to our new house. We are going to pack our things and put them in the truck. Then we are going to drive to our new house. It is bigger and nicer than this one. You will have your own room and a big yard to play in. Do you want to see it?" she said. + +Lily was surprised and excited. She liked the idea of a new house. She wanted to see it. But she also liked her old house and her toys. She did not want to leave them behind. + +"Can I take my toys with me?" she asked. + +"Of course, you can, Lily. You can take all your toys with you. But first, you have to help me pack them. We have to put them in boxes and label them. Then we can load them in the truck. Can you do that?" her mommy said. + +Lily nodded. She wanted to help her mommy. She went back to her room and started to gather her toys. She put them in boxes and wrote their names on them. She was careful and alert. She did not want to forget any of her toys. She loved them all. + +She finished packing her toys and carried the boxes to the truck. Her mommy helped her load them. They worked together until everything was in the truck. Then they got in the car and followed the truck. They waved goodbye to their old house and drove to their new house. Lily was happy and eager. She could not wait to see her new house and play with her toys again. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. The park has swings, slides and a sandbox. Lily and Ben have fun in the park. + +One day, Lily and Ben want to go to the park. But it is far from their homes. They need to cross a big road. The road has many cars and trucks. Lily and Ben are scared of the road. + +Lily and Ben see a man. The man is a crossing guard. He wears a yellow vest and a hat. He has a sign and a whistle. The man is dependable. He helps Lily and Ben cross the road. + +The man stops the cars and trucks. He blows his whistle. He shows his sign. He says, "Come on, kids. It's safe to cross." Lily and Ben hold hands. They follow the man. They cross the road. + +Lily and Ben say, "Thank you, sir." The man smiles. He says, "You're welcome, kids. Have fun in the park." Lily and Ben run to the park. They play in the swings, slides and sandbox. They are happy. +Lily likes to watch videos on her tablet. She likes to see famous people sing and dance and tell jokes. She thinks they are funny and pretty and smart. She wants to be like them when she grows up. + +One day, Lily sees a video of a famous girl who has a big pink dress and a shiny crown. She sings a song about being a princess and having a lot of friends. Lily loves the song and the dress and the crown. She wants to have them too. + +She runs to her mom and says, "Mom, I need a pink dress and a crown. I want to be a princess like the girl in the video. Please, please, please!" + +Her mom smiles and hugs her. She says, "Lily, you are already a princess in my heart. You don't need a dress and a crown to be special. You are special because you are kind and brave and smart. And you have a lot of friends who love you. Do you know that?" + +Lily thinks for a moment. She says, "Yes, I know that. But I still like the dress and the crown. They are so pretty." + +Her mom says, "I understand. Maybe we can make a dress and a crown together. We can use some fabric and paper and glitter and stickers. It will be fun and creative. And you can sing your own song. How does that sound?" + +Lily nods and claps her hands. She says, "That sounds great, mom. Thank you. I love you." + +Her mom says, "I love you too, Lily. Come on, let's go and make your princess outfit." +Anna and Ben were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they missed and the ball rolled away. They ran after it and brought it back. + +One time, the ball rolled too far and went into the bushes. Anna and Ben followed it, but they could not find it. They looked and looked, but the ball was gone. They felt sad and scared. + +"Where is our ball?" Anna asked. + +"I don't know," Ben said. "Maybe someone took it." + +They heard a voice from behind the bushes. It was an elderly man. He had a long beard and a hat. He was holding their ball. + +"Is this your object?" he asked. + +"Yes, it is!" Anna and Ben said. "Please give it back to us!" + +The elderly man smiled. He said, "I will give it back to you, but only if you promise me something." + +"What is it?" Anna and Ben asked. + +"You must promise me to remain kind and honest. You must not lie or cheat or hurt anyone. You must help others and share your things. Do you promise?" + +Anna and Ben nodded. They said, "We promise. We are good children." + +The elderly man gave them their ball. He said, "I am glad to hear that. You see, I am a fairy. I can do magic. I hid your ball to test you. If you had been rude or greedy, I would have turned your ball into a frog. But since you were polite and respectful, I will reward you. I will grant you one wish each. What do you wish for?" + +Anna and Ben thought for a moment. They looked at each other and smiled. They said, "We wish to be friends forever." + +The elderly man clapped his hands. He said, "That is a wonderful wish. It is done. You will always be friends, no matter what. Now go and play. Have fun. And remember your promise." + +Anna and Ben thanked the elderly man. They hugged him and ran back to the park. They kicked and caught their ball. They laughed and talked. They were happy. They had found their ball and a fairy. They had made a wish and a promise. They had learned a lesson and a secret. They were friends forever. +Lily was a girl who liked to get mail. She liked to see the letters and cards that came from her friends and family. She liked to open the envelopes and read the words. She liked to keep the mail in her room and look at it again and again. + +One day, Lily saw a big truck stop in front of her house. The truck had a lot of boxes on it. The truck driver got out and took a box to her door. He rang the bell and waited for Lily's mom to come. Lily ran to the window and watched. She wondered what was in the box. + +Lily's mom opened the door and thanked the truck driver. She took the box inside and called Lily. "Lily, come here. We have a surprise for you." Lily ran to her mom and saw the box. It was big and had her name on it. She was very excited. "What is it, mom? What is it?" she asked. + +Lily's mom smiled and opened the box. Inside was a new mailbox. It was red and shiny and had a flag on it. It had a sticker with Lily's name on it. Lily's mom said, "This is your new mailbox, Lily. You can put it outside and get your own mail. You can write letters and cards to your friends and family and send them from your mailbox. You can also receive mail from them and see what they have to say. Isn't that fun?" + +Lily was very happy. She hugged her mom and thanked her. She said, "I love my new mailbox, mom. It is the best gift ever. I can't wait to use it." She helped her mom carry the mailbox outside and put it near the road. She waved the flag and said, "Look, mom. I have a new mailbox. I have a new mailbox." + +Lily learned that getting mail is fun, but sending mail is also fun. She learned that mail is a way to show love and care to others. She learned that mail is a way to make friends and keep in touch. She learned that mail is a way to share stories and feelings. She learned that mail is a gift. +Sam and Mia are friends. They like to play and talk. One day, Sam has a new thing. It is gum. Gum is soft and sweet. You can chew it and make bubbles. + +"Look, Mia, I have gum. Do you want some?" Sam asks. + +"Yes, please. What is gum?" Mia says. + +"Gum is fun. You can chew it and make bubbles. But do not swallow it. It is not food. It is just for your mouth." Sam says. + +He gives Mia a piece of gum. It is thin and pink. Mia puts it in her mouth. She chews it. It is sweet and sticky. + +"Wow, this is good. How do you make bubbles?" Mia asks. + +"You blow air in the gum. Like this." Sam shows Mia. He blows a big bubble. It is round and shiny. Mia tries to do the same. She blows a small bubble. It pops. + +"Ha ha, that is funny. Let me try again." Mia says. + +She blows another bubble. It is bigger. But it pops too. The gum sticks to her nose. + +"Oh no, Mia, you have gum on your nose. How will you get it off?" Sam says. + +"I don't know. It is sticky. Can you help me?" Mia says. + +Sam tries to pull the gum off. But it is too sticky. It stretches and snaps. The gum sticks to his fingers. + +"Oh no, Sam, now you have gum on your fingers. How will you get it off?" Mia says. + +"I don't know. It is sticky. Can we wash it?" Sam says. + +They go to the sink. They turn on the water. They try to wash the gum off. But it is too sticky. It does not come off. + +"Oh no, what can we do?" Sam says. + +"Maybe we can mail it. Mail is when you put something in a box and send it away. Maybe someone else can take the gum off." Mia says. + +"That is a good idea. Let's mail it. Maybe Mom can help us." Sam says. + +They go to Mom. They show her the gum. Mom laughs. + +"Oh, you silly kids. You have gum on your nose and fingers. You don't need to mail it. You need to use oil. Oil is slippery. It can make the gum come off." Mom says. + +She gets some oil. She puts it on the gum. She rubs it gently. The gum comes off. Mia and Sam are happy. + +"Thank you, Mom. You are smart. You know how to get rid of gum." Mia says. + +"You're welcome, Mia. You are sweet. But next time, be careful with gum. It can be messy." Mom says. + +"OK, Mom. We will be careful. Can we have more gum?" Sam says. + +Mom smiles. + +"Maybe later. But first, let's have some lunch. You must be hungry after all that chewing." Mom says. + +They go to the kitchen. They have some lunch. They eat and talk. They are friends. They like to play and talk. And sometimes, they like to chew gum and make bubbles. +Sara loved her bike. It was red and shiny and had a bell. She liked to ride it in the park with her dad. One day, her bike made a funny noise and stopped moving. Sara was sad and scared. + +"What's wrong, Sara?" her dad asked. + +"My bike is broken, dad. It won't go," Sara said. + +"Don't worry, Sara. We can take it to the mechanic. He can fix it for you," her dad said. + +"Who is the mechanic, dad?" Sara asked. + +"The mechanic is a person who knows how to make things work. He has tools and parts and a garage. He can help us with your bike," her dad said. + +They walked to the mechanic's shop. It was not far from the park. The mechanic was a friendly man with a big smile. He looked at Sara's bike and said, "I see what's wrong. Your chain is loose and your tire is flat. I can spoil your bike for you. Do you want me to do that?" + +"Yes, please, spoil my bike," Sara said. + +The mechanic nodded and took Sara's bike to his garage. He used his tools and parts to spoil Sara's bike. He tightened the chain and pumped the tire. He also cleaned the bike and put a sticker on it. He brought the bike back to Sara and said, "Here you go, Sara. Your bike is spoiled. It's as good as new. Try it and see." + +Sara was happy and excited. She thanked the mechanic and got on her bike. She rang the bell and pedaled away. Her bike was smooth and fast and quiet. She felt the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She said to her dad, "I love my bike, dad. And I love the mechanic. He spoiled my bike for me. He is lovely." + +Her dad smiled and said, "I'm glad you're happy, Sara. You're lovely too. Now let's go and have some fun in the park." +Anna was miserable. She did not want to dress up for the party. She wanted to play with her toys and watch cartoons. But her mom said she had to wear a nice dress and a bow in her hair. She said it was rude to say no to Aunt Lily, who invited them to her house. + +Anna did not like Aunt Lily. She was old and mean. She always pinched Anna's cheeks and said she was too skinny. She had a big dog that barked and scared Anna. And she had no toys or cartoons in her house. Only books and pictures and vases. + +Anna dragged her feet as she followed her mom to the car. She hoped the party would be over soon. She looked out the window and saw a pigeon on the sidewalk. The pigeon was gray and dirty. It had a torn wing and a limp. It looked sad and hungry. + +"Mom, can we help the pigeon?" Anna asked. + +Her mom glanced at the pigeon and shook her head. "No, honey, we can't. We have to go to the party. The pigeon will be fine. There are plenty of pigeons in the city." + +Anna felt sorry for the pigeon. She wished she could give it some bread and water. She wished she could be its friend. She wished she could fly away with it and leave the party behind. She thought the pigeon was more nice than Aunt Lily. + +She reached into her pocket and took out a cracker. She rolled down the window and threw the cracker to the pigeon. The pigeon saw the cracker and hopped over to it. It pecked at it and made a soft cooing sound. + +"Thank you, little girl," the pigeon said. + +Anna smiled. She felt a little less miserable. She waved to the pigeon and said, "You're welcome, pigeon. Have a good day." + +The pigeon nodded and flew away. Anna rolled up the window and sat back in her seat. She still did not want to go to the party, but she was glad she made a new friend. She hoped the pigeon would be happy and safe. She hoped she would see it again. +Sara and Ben are playing with their toy animals. They have a big scale that can weigh the animals. Sara puts a lion on one side of the scale and says, "The lion is heavy. He can roar and hunt." Ben puts a rabbit on the other side of the scale and says, "The rabbit is light. He can hop and hide." The scale tips to the lion's side and the rabbit falls off. + +Sara laughs and says, "The lion is stronger than the rabbit. He can eat the rabbit." Ben frowns and says, "No, the rabbit is smarter than the lion. He can run away and find a safe place." Sara says, "Where is the safe place?" Ben says, "The safe place is under the bed. Come, I will show you." + +Sara and Ben crawl under the bed with their toy animals. They see a big box with a blanket inside. Ben says, "This is the safe place. We can put the animals here and they will be cozy and warm." Sara says, "That is a good idea. The lion and the rabbit can be friends here and not fight." They put the animals in the box and cover them with the blanket. They lie down next to the box and listen to their animals' soft sounds. + +Sara and Ben feel peaceful under the bed. They close their eyes and smile. They think, "We are safe here. We are happy here. We love our animals and each other." They fall asleep and dream of their animals. The end. +Lily liked to sing and dance, but she was shy. She did not want to sing and dance in front of other people. She only sang and danced in her room, with her toys and her cat. + +One day, her teacher said that the class would perform a song for the school. Lily was scared. She did not want to perform. She wanted to hide. She told her teacher that she was sick and could not sing. + +But her teacher was kind. She said that Lily could perform with her best friend, Anna. Anna was not shy. She liked to perform. She said that she would help Lily and they would sing together. + +Lily and Anna practiced the song in the playground, in the library, and in Lily's room. Lily still felt shy, but Anna made her feel better. She said that Lily had a beautiful voice and that they would have fun. + +The day of the performance came. Lily and Anna wore pretty dresses and ribbons. They went on the stage with the other children. Lily saw the school and the parents and the teachers. She felt shy. She wanted to run away. + +But then she saw Anna. Anna smiled at her and held her hand. She said that they could do it. She said that they were friends. Lily felt brave. She looked at Anna and sang with her. They sang the song and danced and smiled. The school and the parents and the teachers clapped and cheered. Lily and Anna hugged. Lily was happy. She was not shy anymore. She liked to perform. +Tom and Lily were brother and sister. They liked to play together, but sometimes they fought. One day, they wanted to eat pizza for lunch, but they had different ideas. + +"I want cheese pizza!" Tom said. + +"No, I want pepperoni pizza!" Lily said. + +They started to argue and shout. Mom heard them and was not happy. + +"Stop fighting, please. You can both have pizza, but you have to share. Why don't you decide together what kind of pizza you want?" Mom said. + +Tom and Lily looked at each other. They did not want to share, but they also did not want to make Mom sad. They thought for a moment. + +"Maybe we can have half cheese and half pepperoni?" Tom suggested. + +"That sounds fair. And maybe we can have some pineapple too?" Lily added. + +"Okay, that sounds good. And maybe we can have some ice cream after?" Tom agreed. + +They smiled and hugged. Mom was proud of them. She ordered the pizza and they waited happily. + +When the pizza arrived, they ate it with joy. They liked the cheese, the pepperoni, and the pineapple. They also liked the ice cream. They thanked Mom for the yummy lunch. + +"See, it is better to decide together than to fight. You can have more fun and more pizza that way." Mom said. + +Tom and Lily nodded. They learned a lesson. They decided to be more playful and less angry with each other. They played with their toys and had a great day. +Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with blocks and cars. One day, Sara has a new toy. It is a big doll with long hair and a pink dress. Sara loves her doll. She gives her a name. She calls her Lily. + +Ben sees Sara's doll. He wants to play with it. He asks Sara, "Can I hold Lily?" Sara says, "No, she is mine. You have your own toys." Ben feels jealous. He thinks Sara is not nice. He waits for Sara to look away. Then he grabs Lily and runs away. + +Sara sees Ben with her doll. She is angry. She shouts, "Give me back Lily! She is not yours!" She chases Ben. Ben runs faster. He trips on a rug. He falls down. Lily falls too. Her dress gets dirty. Ben cries. He hurts his knee. + +Sara catches up with Ben. She sees Lily's dress. She sees Ben's knee. She feels sorry. She says, "Are you okay, Ben?" Ben says, "I'm sorry, Sara. I was jealous. I wanted to play with Lily. She is so pretty." Sara says, "It's okay, Ben. I forgive you. You can play with Lily sometimes. But you have to ask me first. And be careful with her." + +Sara and Ben hug. They are friends again. Sara takes Lily. She wipes her dress with a cloth. She says, "Lily, this is Ben. He is my friend. He likes you too." Lily smiles. Ben smiles. Sara smiles. They play together. They are happy. +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. One morning, they saw a lot of mist in the garden. It looked like a big cloud on the ground. They wanted to touch it and see what it felt like. + +They ran outside and reached out their hands. The mist was cold and wet. It tickled their fingers and made them laugh. They ran around and played in the mist. They felt happy and free. + +But then they saw a little bird on a branch. It was shivering and looked sad. It had no feathers to keep it warm. It was an adorable bird, with a red beak and blue eyes. Lily and Ben felt sorry for the bird. They wanted to help it. + +They ran inside and got a towel and a box. They wrapped the bird in the towel and put it in the box. They brought it inside and put it near the heater. They gave it some water and seeds. They talked to it and stroked it gently. The bird felt safe and cozy. It chirped and looked grateful. + +Lily and Ben learned that playing in the mist was fun, but helping a friend was better. They decided to keep the bird as a pet and name it Misty. They loved Misty and Misty loved them. They were a happy family. +Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play in Tom's backyard. Tom has a big apple tree. The apples are red and tasty. Tom and Sam pick some apples and eat them. + +One day, a big dog comes to Tom's backyard. The dog is hungry. He sees the apples on the tree. He jumps and bites an apple. He likes it. He jumps and bites another apple. He likes it more. + +Tom and Sam see the dog. They are angry. The dog is stealing their apples. They shout at the dog. + +"Go away, dog! These are our apples! You are bad!" Tom says. + +"Leave us alone, dog! You are not nice! You are mean!" Sam says. + +The dog does not listen. He barks at Tom and Sam. He shows his teeth. He is not afraid. He jumps and bites more apples. + +Tom and Sam are scared. They run to Tom's house. They close the door. They wait for the dog to go away. + +They hope the dog will not come back. They want to play in Tom's backyard again. They want to eat the tasty apples again. They are sad. +Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, Anna has a party at her house. She invites Tom and other friends. She has many balloons, cakes and games. + +Tom is happy to go to the party. He brings his favorite toy car. He wants to show it to Anna and the others. He thinks they will like it too. He puts it in his bag and goes to the party. + +At the party, Tom sees Anna and says hello. He gives her a hug and a gift. He says, "Anna, I have something to show you. It is my favorite toy car. Do you want to see it?" Anna nods and smiles. She says, "Yes, Tom, I want to see it. Can I play with it?" + +Tom takes out his toy car from his bag and shows it to Anna. It is red and shiny. It has four wheels and a horn. It can go fast and make noises. Anna likes it very much. She says, "Wow, Tom, your toy car is very nice. Can you lend it to me for a while? I want to try it." + +Tom likes Anna. He wants to make her happy. He says, "OK, Anna, I can lend it to you for a while. But you have to be careful. It is my favorite toy car. Do not break it or lose it. And give it back to me later." Anna says, "OK, Tom, I will be careful. I will not break it or lose it. And I will give it back to you later. Thank you, Tom. You are a good friend." + +Anna takes the toy car and runs away. She plays with it in the garden. She makes it go fast and make noises. She has fun with it. She forgets about Tom and the others. She does not share it or give it back. + +Tom waits for Anna. He is hungry and thirsty. He wants to eat some cake and drink some juice. He wants to play some games and have some fun.

She is still playing with his toy car. She does not see him. He goes to her and says, "Anna, give me back my toy car. It is mine. You said you will give it back to me later. It is later now. I want my toy car back." + +Anna hears Tom. She does not want to give him back his toy car. She likes it too much. She says, "No, Tom, I will not give you back your toy car. It is mine now. I like it too much. You can have another toy. Go away, Tom. You are a bad friend." + +Tom is shocked and hurt. He says, "No, Anna, you are a bad friend. You are not nice. You are not fair. You are not honest. You broke your promise. You took my toy car and did not give it back. You made me sad and angry. Give me back my toy car now." + +Anna does not listen to Tom. She pushes him away.

They do not care about the party. They do not care about the other friends. They only care about the toy car. They are not happy. They are not friends. The end. +Sara was a little fish who lived in a stream. She liked to swim and play with her friends, but sometimes she felt lonely. She wished she had a family to love her and take care of her. + +One day, she saw a big fish with shiny scales and a long tail. He smiled at her and said, "Hello, little fish. You look very pretty. Do you want to be my friend?" + +Sara was happy and curious. She said, "Yes, I want to be your friend. What is your name?" + +The big fish said, "My name is Leo. I am a lionfish. I come from far away. I can show you many things you have never seen before. Come with me, little fish." + +Sara followed Leo, who swam deeper and deeper into the stream. She saw many colors and shapes, but she also felt scared. She said, "Leo, where are we going? I want to go back to my friends." + +Leo said, "Don't worry, little fish. I have a surprise for you. You will like it very much. Trust me, little fish." + +Sara trusted Leo, but she also felt a cold shiver in her spine. She did not know that Leo was a bad fish, who liked to eat little fish like her. He was not her friend, he was her enemy. He had tricked her with his smile and his words. + +Leo led Sara to a dark cave, where he stopped and turned around. He said, "Here we are, little fish. This is my home. And this is your surprise." + +Sara looked around and saw many bones and scales of other little fish. She realized that Leo had eaten them all. She was terrified and tried to swim away, but it was too late. Leo opened his mouth and said, "Goodbye, little fish. You are my dinner." + +He ate Sara in one bite, and felt very full and happy. He did not care that he had made Sara lonely and sad. He only cared about himself. He was a very bad fish. +Lily was a small cat who liked to follow her big brother Leo. Leo was a brave cat who liked to explore new places. One day, Leo found a hole in the fence and went through it. Lily saw him and wanted to go too. She ran after him and squeezed through the hole. + +On the other side of the fence, there was a big yard with many things to see and smell. Leo ran to a big tree and climbed up. Lily tried to follow him, but she was too small. She could not reach the first branch. She felt sad and looked around for something else to do. + +She saw a shiny ball on the grass and ran to it. She pushed it with her paw and it rolled away. She chased it and pushed it again. She was having fun. But then, she heard a loud bark. She turned around and saw a big dog running towards her. She was scared and ran away. She looked for Leo, but she could not see him. She looked for the hole in the fence, but she could not find it. She felt lost and alone. + +She hid under a bush and hoped the dog would not find her. She wished Leo was with her. She wished she was back home. She started to cry. She heard a meow. She looked up and saw Leo. He had heard her cry and came to find her. He jumped down from the tree and ran to her. He licked her face and rubbed his head against her. He told her he was sorry he left her. He told her he would take her home. He told her he loved her. + +Lily felt happy and safe. She hugged Leo and thanked him. She followed him to the hole in the fence. They squeezed through it and ran back to their house. They found their mom and dad and told them what happened. They were glad they were safe. They cuddled together and took a nap. They dreamed of shiny balls and big trees. They were happy they had each other. +Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her mom's purse. She liked to open it and see what was inside. She liked to take out the keys, the phone, the lipstick and the wallet. She liked to pretend she was a grown-up lady. + +One day, Lily saw her mom's purse on the couch. She ran to it and grabbed it. She opened it and started to play. She did not see her mom coming into the room. + +"Hey, Lily, what are you doing with my purse?" her mom asked. + +"I'm playing, mommy!" Lily said. + +"Lily, you can't play with my purse. It's not a toy. You might break something or lose something. Give it back to me, please." + +But Lily did not want to give it back. She wanted to keep playing. She held the purse tight and ran away. She ran to her room and closed the door. + +Her mom followed her and knocked on the door. "Lily, open the door. You have to give me my purse. It's not yours. It's mine." + +Lily did not listen. She opened the purse and dumped everything on the floor. She saw something shiny and round. It was a necklace. It had many beads. Lily liked it. She put it around her neck. She felt like a princess. + +She did not see that the necklace was tangled with the phone. She pulled the necklace and the phone came with it. The phone fell on the floor and broke. It made a loud noise. + +Lily was scared. She dropped the necklace and the purse. She started to cry. + +Her mom heard the noise and the cry. She opened the door and saw the mess. She saw the broken phone and the spilled purse. She was angry and sad. + +"Lily, what have you done? You destroyed my phone and my purse. You were very naughty. How could you do this?" + +Lily felt sorry. She did not mean to destroy anything. She just wanted to play. She looked at her mom with big tears in her eyes. + +"I'm sorry, mommy. I'm sorry. I love you." + +Her mom sighed. She was still angry and sad, but she also loved Lily. She hugged her and said, "I love you too, Lily. But you have to learn to respect other people's things. You can't play with my purse. It's not a toy. It's important to me. Do you understand?" + +Lily nodded. She understood. She said, "I'm sorry, mommy. I won't do it again. Can you forgive me?" + +Her mom smiled. She said, "Yes, I forgive you. But you have to help me clean up this mess. And you have to go to bed early. You must be very tired after all this trouble." + +Lily agreed. She helped her mom clean up the mess. She gave back the purse and the necklace. She said goodnight and went to bed. She was very tired. She fell asleep and dreamed of being a princess. +Lila was sick. She had a bad cough and a hot head. Mommy said she had to take a pill to feel better. But Lila did not like pills. They were big and bitter and hard to swallow. + +"Please, Lila, try to take the pill. It will help you get well soon," Mommy said. She gave Lila a glass of water and a spoon with the pill. + +Lila looked at the pill and made a face. She shook her head and said, "No, no, no. I don't want the pill. It's yucky." + +Mommy sighed and said, "I know, Lila, but it's good for you. How about we play a game? You can pretend the pill is a magic bean that will make you grow strong and healthy. And I will count to three and then you can close your eyes and swallow it. OK?" + +Lila thought for a moment. She liked games. And she liked magic. And she wanted to be strong and healthy. She nodded and said, "OK, Mommy. Let's play the game." + +Mommy smiled and said, "Good girl. Ready? One, two, three, close your eyes and swallow the pill!" + +Lila closed her eyes and put the pill in her mouth. She felt it slide down her throat with the water. She opened her eyes and said, "I did it, Mommy! I took the pill!" + +Mommy hugged her and said, "You did it, Lila! You are so brave and smart. I'm so proud of you. You are perfect." + +Lila smiled and said, "Thank you, Mommy. I love you." + +Mommy kissed her and said, "I love you too, Lila. Now let's go to bed and rest. Tomorrow you will feel much better." +Lily and Max were best friends. They liked to walk in the park and look at the animals. One day, they saw a big hippo in the pond. The hippo was very quiet and still. + +"Hello, hippo!" Lily said. "Do you want to play with us?" + +The hippo did not answer. He just blinked his eyes and yawned. + +"Maybe he is sleepy," Max said. "Or maybe he is sad." + +Lily and Max felt sorry for the hippo. They wanted to make him happy. + +"Let's give him a flower," Lily said. She picked a yellow flower from the grass and threw it into the pond. + +The hippo saw the flower and smiled. He lifted his head and sprayed some water from his nose. + +"Thank you, kids," the hippo said. "You are very thoughtful. I was not sad, just thinking. But I like your flower. It is very pretty." + +Lily and Max were glad. They clapped their hands and laughed. + +"You are welcome, hippo," they said. "We are happy you like it. Can we be your friends?" + +The hippo nodded and winked. + +"Of course you can," he said. "You are very kind and fun. Come and visit me again." + +Lily and Max waved goodbye to the hippo and walked away. They had made a new friend in the park. +Jill and Jack went to a big place to eat with Mom and Dad.

Jill asked Mom. + +"Can I have fries and milk, please?" Jack asked Dad. + +Mom and Dad looked at the menu and frowned. They did not see pizza or fries on the menu. They only saw salad and soup and fish and rice. + +"Sorry, Jill and Jack, but this place does not have pizza or fries," Mom said. "You have to choose something else." + +Jill and Jack did not like that. They wanted pizza and fries. They did not want salad or soup or fish or rice. They made a big fuss. They cried and kicked and shouted. + +"Stop it, Jill and Jack, you are being foolish," Dad said. "You have to eat what they have here. It is good for you." + +But Jill and Jack did not listen. They kept making a big fuss. The people at the other tables looked at them and shook their heads. The waiter came and asked Mom and Dad what they wanted to order. + +"Can we have two salads, two soups, two fish and two rice, please?" Mom said. "And two waters." + +"Are you sure?" the waiter asked. "We have other things on the menu. Like chicken and pasta and cheese and bread." + +Mom and Dad looked at the menu again. They saw chicken and pasta and cheese and bread. They looked at Jill and Jack. They looked at each other.

"Do you like it?" + +"Yes, Ben, I like it. It is a nice dog. Can I print a cat?" Lila asks, pointing to a cat in the book. + +"OK, Lila, you can print a cat. But be careful, the printer is hot. Do not touch it with your hand." Ben warns, giving Lila the book and the printer. + +Lila finds the cat in the book and puts it in the printer. She pushes the button and waits for the paper to come out. She is very excited to see the cat. But when she tries to grab the paper, she touches the printer with her hand. It is very hot and it hurts her hand. She cries out loud. + +"Ow, ow, ow! It hurts, it hurts!" Lila says, dropping the paper and holding her hand. + +Ben hears Lila crying and runs to her. He sees her hand is red and swollen. He feels sorry for her and hugs her. + +"I am sorry, Lila, I am sorry. You touch the printer and it hurts you. It is my fault. I should have helped you."

Lila says, sobbing. + +Mom hears Lila and Ben crying and comes to the living room. She sees what happened and takes Lila to the kitchen. She puts some ice on her hand and wraps it with a cloth. She kisses her hand and tells her it will be OK. + +"Mom, I am sorry, I touch the printer and it hurts me. I was not careful." Lila says, looking at Mom with big eyes. + +"It is OK, Lila, it is OK. You made a mistake, but you learned from it. Next time, you will be more careful. The printer is hot and it can hurt you. You have to be gentle with it."

They are good friends. +Lila and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and laugh. They saw a big bush with many flowers. The flowers were pink and white and yellow. They smelled very nice. + +"Look, Tom, how pretty!" Lila said. She wanted to touch the flowers. She reached out her hand. + +"Wait, Lila, don't touch!" Tom said. He remembered what Mommy had told them. "The flowers are delicate. If you touch them, they might break. Then the bush will be sad." + +Lila stopped her hand. She looked at Tom. She did not want to make the bush sad. She wanted to be kind. "Okay, Tom, I won't touch. I will just look." She smiled. + +Tom smiled too. He was glad that Lila listened. He took her hand. They walked around the bush. They saw more flowers. They saw bees and butterflies. They saw a bird's nest. They were happy. They loved the garden. They loved the bush.

Lily says. "Can I glow too?" + +"Sure, let's share the hat. Maybe we can do other magic things," Ben says. + +They take turns wearing the hat. They glow different colors. They make funny noises.

She runs to the slide and climbs up the ladder. Ben follows her. + +"Wait for me, Sara!" Ben says. "I want to slide too!" + +Sara does not wait. She slides down very fast. She laughs and shouts. Ben is angry. He slides down after her. He catches up with her at the bottom. He bites her arm. + +"Ow! Ben, that hurts!" Sara cries. She pushes him away. She shows him her arm. There is a mark from his teeth. + +"I'm sorry, Sara. I was mad. You did not share the slide." Ben says. He feels bad. He hugs her. + +"Sharing is nice, Ben. Biting is not. Biting is mean." Sara says. She hugs him back. She is still sad. + +"Can I make you feel better?" Ben asks. He sees a juice stand nearby. He has some coins in his pocket. He takes Sara's hand. "Come on, let's get some juice." + +They walk to the juice stand. Ben gives the man his coins. He asks for two cups of juice. The man fills the cups with juice. He gives them to Ben. + +"Here you go, kids. Enjoy your juice." The man says. He smiles. + +Ben takes the cups. They are heavy. He tries to hold them both.

He was popular and everyone wanted to be on his team. + +One day, a new boy came to the park. His name was Sam. He was bigger and faster than Tim. He also liked to play basketball. He asked Tim if he could join his team. + +Tim said yes, but he soon regretted it. Sam was very bossy and rude. He always wanted the ball and never passed it to anyone else. He shouted at Tim and his friends when they made a mistake. He said they were bad at basketball. + +Tim felt sad and angry. He did not like playing with Sam. He did not have fun anymore. He wanted to quit. + +He told his friends how he felt. They agreed with him. They did not like Sam either. They decided to quit together. + +They went to Sam and said, "We don't want to play with you anymore. You are mean and selfish. You are not a good teammate. We quit." + +Sam was surprised and angry. He did not understand why they quit. He thought he was the best at basketball. He said, "Fine, I don't need you. I can play by myself. You are all losers." + +Tim and his friends ignored him. They left the park and went to Tim's house. They played with other toys and games. They had fun and laughed. They were happy. They did not miss basketball or Sam. +Tim liked to dream. He dreamed of many things. He dreamed of flying in the sky. He dreamed of swimming in the sea. He dreamed of playing with his friends. + +One night, he had a rare dream. He dreamed of a big potato. The potato was very friendly. It talked to Tim and told him stories. It also gave him a hug. + +Tim was happy in his dream. He liked the potato. He wanted to stay with it. But then he heard a noise. It was his mom. She was waking him up. + +"Tim, it's time to get up. I made you breakfast. Do you want some potato?" + +Tim opened his eyes. He saw his mom. He also saw his dream. The potato was still there. It smiled at him and waved goodbye. + +Tim smiled back. He said, "Thank you, potato. You are a good friend. I hope to see you again." + +He got up and went to eat his breakfast. He ate some potato. It was yummy. He wondered if the potato in his dream liked to eat potato too. He decided to ask it next time he dreamed of it. +Sam likes to play with his fan. He likes to make it spin and blow air on his face. He likes to pretend he is a bird flying in the wind. He likes to see the colors on the fan go round and round. + +One day, Sam wants to show his fan to his friend Lily. He takes his fan to her house and knocks on the door. Lily opens the door and smiles. She sees the fan in Sam's hand and says, "What is that?" + +"This is my fan," Sam says. "It is very useful. It can make wind and cool you down. Do you want to try it?" + +Lily nods and takes the fan from Sam. She turns it on and holds it in front of her face. She feels the air on her skin and laughs. She says, "This is fun! Your fan is very useful. Can we play with it together?" + +Sam nods and smiles. He says, "Yes, we can. Let's go to the park and play with the fan. We can make it rise and fall and spin and flip. We can be birds in the wind." + +Lily agrees and they run to the park with the fan. They play with the fan for a long time and have a lot of fun. They are happy to share the fan and be friends. +Ben and Mia were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big yard with a slide, a swing, and a sandbox. One day, they saw dark clouds in the sky and heard a loud boom. They knew it was going to rain soon. + +"Let's go inside, Ben," Mia said. "We don't want to get wet." + +"But I want to play more," Ben said. He was a chubby boy who loved to run and jump. "Maybe the rain will not come." + +Mia shook her head. She was a smart girl who listened to her mom. "Mom said we have to go inside when it thunders. Come on, Ben, it's not safe." + +She grabbed his hand and pulled him toward the house. Ben followed her, but he was not happy. He looked back at the yard and wished he could stay. + +They reached the door and Mia opened it. She was about to go in when she saw something bright and beautiful in the sky. It was a rainbow, with many colors. She gasped and pointed. + +"Look, Ben, a rainbow!" she said. "It's so pretty!" + +Ben turned around and saw the rainbow too. He smiled and forgot about his sadness. He loved rainbows. They made him feel happy. + +"Wow, a rainbow!" he said. "Can we go see it?" + +Mia nodded. She closed the door behind them and ran with Ben to the end of the yard. They stood under the rainbow and looked up. They felt the raindrops on their faces, but they did not mind. They were happy to see the rainbow. + +"Thank you, rainbow, for making us happy," Mia said. + +"Yes, thank you, rainbow," Ben said. + +They hugged each other and laughed. They did not know that their mom was watching them from the window, smiling too. She was glad that they had found something to make them happy, even on a rainy day. +Lily was a stubborn girl. She did not like to do what her mom and dad told her. One day, she wanted to play with her ball in the house. Her mom said, "No, Lily. You can play with your ball outside. Inside, you can play with your dolls or your books." + +But Lily did not listen. She said, "No, mom. I want to play with my ball here. It is fun to bounce it on the floor and the walls." She threw her ball hard and it hit a lamp. The lamp fell and broke. Lily was scared. She ran to her mom and said, "Sorry, mom. I broke the lamp." + +Her mom was angry and sad. She said, "Lily, you are a very stubborn girl. You did not do what I told you. Now, you made a mess and you could have hurt yourself. You need to learn to obey and be careful." She picked up the broken pieces of the lamp and threw them in the trash. + +Then, she saw that Lily had a cut on her hand. It was bleeding. She said, "Oh, Lily. You are hurt. You need to go to the hospital. They will clean your cut and put a bandage on it." She took Lily to the car and drove to the hospital. + +At the hospital, Lily was scared. She did not like the big building and the white coats. She said, "No, mom. I don't want to go to the hospital. I want to go home. My cut is not bad. It will heal by itself." She tried to pull her hand away from her mom. + +Her mom said, "No, Lily. You have to go to the hospital. They will help you. They are nice and gentle. They will not hurt you. You have to be brave and trust them." She held Lily's hand and walked to the nurse. The nurse smiled and said, "Hello, Lily. I'm here to take care of you. Let me see your cut. It's not too big, but it needs some cleaning and a bandage. It will be over soon. Don't worry." + +Lily looked at the nurse and her mom. She saw that they were kind and worried. She felt sorry for being stubborn and breaking the lamp. She said, "Okay, mom. Okay, nurse. I will go with you. I will be brave and trust you. I'm sorry for being stubborn. I love you, mom." She hugged her mom and let the nurse set her on a bed. The nurse cleaned her cut and put a bandage on it. Lily said, "Thank you, nurse. It feels better now." The nurse said, "You're welcome, Lily. You are a good girl. You did very well." She gave Lily a sticker and a lollipop. + +Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, nurse. You are nice and gentle. I like you." She ate her lollipop and showed her sticker to her mom. Her mom said, "I'm proud of you, Lily. You were brave and trusting. I love you, Lily." She kissed her and said, "Let's go home now. And remember, no more playing with your ball inside, okay?" Lily said, "Okay, mom. I will play with my dolls or my books inside. And I will listen to you and be careful. I love you, mom." They hugged and went home. +Tom and Sam were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big dog with sharp teeth and a loud bark. The dog ran towards them and they were very scared. They wanted to run away, but they were too slow. + +"Help! Help!" they cried. "The dog is a threat! He will bite us!" + +A kind lady heard their cries and came to help. She had a leash and a treat for the dog. She called the dog by his name and gave him the treat. The dog stopped barking and wagged his tail. He was not a threat, he was just lonely and hungry. + +"Hello, boys," the lady said. "This is Rex. He is my dog. He ran away from home and I was looking for him. He is not a bad dog, he just wants to play and be loved. Do you want to pet him?" + +Tom and Sam were anxious. They did not trust the dog. But they saw that the lady was nice and that Rex was calm. They decided to be brave and try to pet him. Rex licked their hands and nuzzled their faces. He was very soft and warm. Tom and Sam smiled and laughed. They made a new friend. + +The lady thanked them for being kind to Rex and invited them to visit him anytime. She said goodbye and took Rex home. Tom and Sam waved and went back to their game. They learned that not all things that look scary are threats, and that sometimes being brave and friendly can end a problem. They were happy and proud of themselves. +Sara was a big girl. She did not like to lay in her crib at night. She wanted to play with her toys and books. But Mommy said it was time to sleep. Mommy gave Sara a hug and a kiss and said, "I love you, Sara. You need to rest. You have a big day tomorrow. You are going to the zoo with Daddy and me." + +Sara nodded, but she was not happy. She lay in her crib and looked at the stars on the ceiling. She heard Mommy and Daddy talking in the living room. She wanted to join them. She got up and climbed out of her crib. She tiptoed to the door and opened it. + +But Mommy saw her. She came to the door and said, "Sara, what are you doing? You should be in your crib. It is past your bedtime." + +Sara pouted and said, "But I am not sleepy. I want to stay with you and Daddy.

Come on, let's go back to your crib." + +Sara did not want to go. She cried and kicked and said, "No, no, no!" + +Mommy was firm. She picked up Sara and carried her to her crib. She tucked her in and said, "Sara, you are being naughty. You have to listen to Mommy and Daddy. We know what is best for you. If you lay in your crib and close your eyes, you will fall asleep soon. And then you will wake up and have a fun day at the zoo. But if you keep getting out of your crib, you will be tired and cranky tomorrow. And you will not enjoy the zoo. Do you understand?" + +Sara sniffed and nodded. She said, "I am sorry, Mommy. I will try to sleep." + +Mommy smiled and said, "That's a good girl. I love you, Sara. Good night." + +She turned off the light and left the room. Sara lay in her crib and thought about the zoo. She wondered what animals she would see.

She dreamed of the zoo. +Anna and Ben like to play in the yard. The yard is wide and green. There are many flowers and trees. Anna and Ben have a spray bottle. They fill it with water and pretend it is a magic wand. + +"Look, I can make the flowers grow!" Anna says. She sprays water on a red rose. The rose looks shiny and wet. + +"Wow, that's cool!" Ben says. He sprays water on a yellow sunflower. The sunflower nods and smiles. + +Anna and Ben run around the yard, spraying water on everything. They laugh and have fun. They spray water on the grass, the fence, the birdhouse, and the swing. + +But then they see a big bee. The bee is black and yellow. It buzzes and flies near the flowers. Anna and Ben are scared of the bee. They don't like bees. They think bees can sting and hurt them. + +"Go away, bee!" Anna shouts. She sprays water at the bee. The bee dodges the water and flies closer. + +"Stop, Anna! You make the bee angry!" Ben says. He sprays water at Anna. Anna gets wet and surprised. + +"Hey, why did you do that?" Anna asks. She sprays water back at Ben. Ben gets wet and laughs. + +Anna and Ben forget about the bee. They start a water fight. They spray water at each other. They get wet and happy. The bee flies away.

One day, they find a big jug in the kitchen. It is blue and shiny. They want to drink from it. + +"Let me have some juice!" Tom says. He grabs the jug and tries to pour some in his cup. + +"No, it is my turn!" Jen says. She pulls the jug from Tom and holds it tight. + +They tug and pull on the jug. They are angry and loud. Mom hears them and comes to see. + +"What are you doing?" Mom asks. She looks at the jug. It is empty and dry. "This is not juice. This is a joke jug. It makes funny sounds when you turn it over. See?" She turns the jug over and it makes a honk noise. + +Tom and Jen stop fighting. They look at the jug and hear the honk. They start to laugh. They think it is funny. They are not angry anymore. + +"Sorry, Jen. I did not know it was a joke jug." Tom says. + +"Sorry, Tom. I did not know either." Jen says. + +They hug and share the jug. They take turns to make honk noises. Mom smiles and gives them some real juice. They drink and play with the joke jug. They are happy and silly. +Ben and Lily were hungry. They wanted to eat something yummy. They looked in the fridge. They saw a can of tuna. They liked tuna. They asked Mom if they could have it. + +Mom said yes. She was generous. She opened the can and put some tuna on two plates. She gave one plate to Ben and one plate to Lily. She said, "Enjoy your tuna, my loves." + +Ben and Lily said, "Thank you, Mom." They ate their tuna. It was delicious. They were happy. + +Then they heard a knock on the door. Mom went to see who it was. It was their friend Sam. He came to play with them. Mom said, "Welcome, Sam. Do you want some tuna?" + +Sam said, "Yes, please. I love tuna." Mom gave him a plate of tuna. He said, "Thank you, Mom. You are very kind." + +Ben and Lily said, "Come and play with us, Sam. We have toys and books and games." Sam said, "Okay. Let's play." They went to the living room. They played with their toys and books and games. They had fun. + +They shared their tuna and their toys and their books and their games. They were generous. They were good friends. They were happy. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play pretend and make up stories. One day, they found a big box in the garage. They decided to turn it into a stage. + +"Let's put on a show for Mom and Dad," Lily said. "We can be anything we want." + +"I want to be a pirate," Ben said. "Arrr!" + +"I want to be a princess," Lily said. "La la la!" + +They put on some costumes and props from their toy box. They climbed on the box and started to act. + +"Ahoy, matey!" Ben said. "I'm Captain Ben, the most fearless pirate in the sea. Give me your treasure or I'll make you walk the plank!" + +"Oh no!" Lily said. "I'm Princess Lily, the most beautiful princess in the land. Please don't hurt me, Mr. Pirate. I have no treasure, only this necklace." + +She showed him a plastic necklace with shiny beads. + +"That's a pretty necklace," Ben said. "Can I have it?" + +"Only if you join me for tea," Lily said. "I have some cookies and juice in my castle." + +"Tea?" Ben said. "Pirates don't drink tea. They drink rum and sing songs." + +"Please, Mr. Pirate," Lily said. "It's fun to drink tea and talk. Maybe we can be friends." + +Ben thought for a moment. He liked cookies and juice. He also liked Lily. He decided to join her for tea. + +"Okay, Princess," he said. "But only for a little while. Then I have to sail away." + +They got off the box and went to the kitchen. They set up a tea party with their cups and plates. They ate cookies and drank juice. They talked and laughed. + +Mom and Dad watched them from the living room. They smiled and clapped. + +"What a wonderful show!" Mom said. "You two are very creative and brave." + +"Thank you, Mom," Lily said. "Thank you, Dad." + +"Thank you, Mom," Ben said. "Thank you, Dad." + +They hugged their parents and went back to their stage. They continued to play pretend and make up stories. They were happy and ignorant of the world outside. They were best friends. +Ben and Lily went to the farm with Mom and Dad. They wanted to choose a pumpkin for Halloween. They saw many pumpkins in the field. Some were big, some were small, some were round, some were bumpy. + +"Look at this one!" Ben said, pointing to a huge pumpkin. "It is the biggest pumpkin ever!" + +"But it is too heavy," Lily said. "We cannot carry it home." + +"Look at this one!" Lily said, pointing to a small pumpkin. "It is the cutest pumpkin ever!" + +"But it is too tiny," Ben said. "We cannot carve it well." + +They looked and looked, but they could not find a pumpkin they both liked. Then they saw an old pumpkin. It was not too big or too small. It was not too round or too bumpy. It had a funny face and a long stem. + +"I like this one!" Ben and Lily said at the same time. + +They ran to the old pumpkin and hugged it. Mom and Dad smiled and helped them put it in the wagon. + +"You chose a good pumpkin," Mom said. + +"Yes, we did," Ben and Lily said. "It is the best pumpkin ever!" +Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big tree with many icy branches. The tree looked shiny and pretty, but also cold and sharp. + +"Wow, look at that tree!" Lily said. "It is so icy!" + +"Yes, it is," Tom agreed. "Do you want to touch it?" + +Lily thought for a moment. She wanted to see how the icy tree felt, but she also remembered that ice could hurt her fingers. She decided to ask Tom what he thought. + +"Tom, do you think the icy tree is safe?" she asked. + +Tom shrugged. He was not sure either. He had never touched an icy tree before. He wondered if it would make a sound or break if he touched it. + +"I don't know, Lily," he said. "Maybe we should ask someone." + +Lily nodded. She thought that was a good idea. She looked around and saw their teacher, Mrs. Lee, walking towards them. She waved at her and called her name. + +"Mrs. Lee, Mrs. Lee, can we talk to you?" she said. + +Mrs. Lee smiled and came closer. She saw the icy tree and the curious children. + +"Hello, Lily and Tom," she said. "What do you want to talk about?" + +Lily and Tom pointed at the icy tree and told Mrs. Lee what they saw and what they wondered. + +"We want to touch the icy tree, but we don't know if it is safe," Lily said. + +Mrs. Lee nodded. She understood their question. She decided to help them learn more about the icy tree. + +"That is a good question, Lily and Tom," she said. "The icy tree is very beautiful, but also very fragile. That means it can break easily. If you touch it too hard, you might hurt the tree or yourself. The ice can also melt and make your hands wet and cold. So, it is better to look at the icy tree from a distance and admire its beauty, but not touch it." + +Lily and Tom listened to Mrs. Lee and nodded. They learned something new about the icy tree. They thanked Mrs. Lee for her answer and decided to follow her advice. + +"Thank you, Mrs. Lee," they said. "We will not touch the icy tree. We will just look at it and enjoy it." + +Mrs. Lee smiled and praised them for being smart and respectful. She took their hands and led them to the playground, where they could play with other things that were not icy. Lily and Tom were happy and had fun. They still liked the icy tree, but they also liked their teacher and their friends. +Tim and his dog Rex like to go on trips with Dad. Dad has a big van that can fit many things. Tim and Rex sit in the back and look out the window. They see trees, cows, and cars. + +One day, Dad stops the van at a park. He says, "Tim, Rex, we are here. Let's have some fun." He opens the door and lets them out. Tim and Rex run to the grass. They play fetch with a ball. Rex is very fast and loyal. He always brings the ball back to Tim. + +But then, Rex sees a squirrel. He barks and chases it. Tim calls, "Rex, come back!" But Rex does not listen. He runs far away. Tim is scared. He does not want to lose Rex. He runs after him. + +Dad sees Tim and Rex are gone. He is worried. He gets in the van and drives around. He looks for them. He calls, "Tim, Rex, where are you?" + +Tim and Rex are lost. They do not know where the van is. They do not know where Dad is. They are sad and tired. They sit under a tree. Rex licks Tim's face. He tries to make him feel better. + +Then, they hear a horn. It is Dad. He has found them. He stops the van and gets out. He hugs Tim and Rex. He says, "I'm so glad you are safe. I was very scared. Don't run away again, okay?" Tim and Rex nod. They are sorry. They are happy. They get in the van and go home. They love Dad. Dad loves them. +Anna and Ben love to decorate their room. They have many toys and pictures and stickers. They like to make their room look fun and pretty. Sometimes they help their mom and dad decorate the house too. They put lights and flowers and flags on the walls and windows. + +One day, Anna and Ben find a big box in the garage. It is full of old things that their mom and dad do not use anymore. They see a lamp, a clock, a hat, a book, and a can. The can has a word on it: fuel. Anna and Ben do not know what fuel is. They think it is something to decorate with. + +They take the can and the other things to their room. They put the lamp on the table, the clock on the wall, the hat on the bed, the book on the shelf, and the can on the floor. They think their room looks very nice. They are happy. + +But the can is not for decorating. The can is for cars and machines. It has something inside that can make fire and smoke. It is not safe for children. It is dangerous. + +Their mom and dad come to their room. They see the can and they are scared. They tell Anna and Ben to stay away from the can. They explain what fuel is and why it is not for playing. They take the can away and put it back in the garage. They hug Anna and Ben and tell them they are glad they are okay. They say they are sorry they did not tell them about the can before. + +Anna and Ben are sorry too. They did not mean to do something bad. They just wanted to decorate their room. They learn a new word: fuel. They also learn a new lesson: to be careful with things they do not know. They are wise children. They listen to their mom and dad. They still love to decorate their room, but they only use safe things. They are happy. +Lily and Sam were very happy. Today was their birthday. They were twins. They were three years old. They wanted to celebrate with their friends and family. + +Mom and Dad had a big surprise for them. They put two big boxes in the back of the automobile. The automobile was red. It was shiny and fast. Lily and Sam liked the automobile. They wanted to see what was in the boxes. + +They drove to the park. There were balloons and cake and presents. Lily and Sam saw their friends and ran to hug them. They played and laughed and sang. They had a lot of fun. + +Then Mom and Dad said it was time to open the boxes. They helped Lily and Sam pull the ribbons and tear the paper. Inside the boxes were two bicycles. One was pink and one was blue. They had wheels and pedals and bells. Lily and Sam were very excited. They thanked Mom and Dad and gave them big kisses. + +They put on their helmets and tried their bicycles. They were a little wobbly at first, but they soon learned how to balance and steer. They rode around the park with their friends. They felt happy and proud. They had the best birthday ever. They celebrated with their bicycles and their red automobile. +Lily and Ben like to play in the garden. They have a big tree with a swing and a slide. They also have a ladder that they can use to climb up the tree and see the birds and the sky. + +One day, they see something purple in the tree. It is shiny and round and looks like a big grape. They want to get it and see what it is. They take the ladder and put it next to the tree. Lily goes first and climbs up the ladder. She reaches for the purple thing, but it is too far. She tries to stretch her arm, but she cannot touch it. + +Ben sees that Lily is trying hard, but he is worried. He says, "Lily, be careful! The ladder is not strong. It can shake and fall." Lily does not listen. She wants the purple thing. She jumps on the ladder and tries to grab it. + +But Ben is right. The ladder is not strong. It shakes and wobbles and falls. Lily falls with the ladder and lands on the grass. She is not hurt, but she is scared and sad. She cries and says, "I want the purple thing!" + +Ben runs to Lily and hugs her. He says, "Lily, I'm sorry. Are you okay? Don't cry. The purple thing is not important. You are important. You are my sister and I love you." + +Lily stops crying and hugs Ben back. She says, "Thank you, Ben. I love you too. You are my brother and you are kind." + +They look at the tree and see the purple thing. It is not a grape. It is a balloon. Someone tied it to a branch and left it there. It is not shiny and round anymore. It is flat and wrinkled. It is not pretty and fun anymore. It is silly and boring. + +Lily and Ben laugh and say, "We don't want the purple thing. We have each other. We have the swing and the slide. We have the tree and the birds and the sky. We have fun." They leave the ladder and the balloon and play in the garden. They are happy. +Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the woods. They found a big log that they could use to make a fort. But they had a problem. They had too many sticks and leaves and rocks to sort. They did not know how to share the work. + +"I will sort the sticks, you sort the leaves and rocks," said Tim. + +"No, I want to sort the sticks, they are more fun," said Sam. + +"But I saw the log first, so I get to choose," said Tim. + +"That is not fair, you are selfish," said Sam. + +They started to fight and pull the sticks from each other. They made a lot of noise and mess. They did not see the big bear that came out of the woods. The bear was hungry and curious. He saw the log and the sticks and the leaves and the rocks. He thought they were food. He walked towards them, growling. + +Tim and Sam heard the bear and stopped fighting. They were scared and sorry. They dropped the sticks and ran to each other. They hugged and said, "I am sorry, brother, I love you." + +They ran away from the log and the bear. They learned to share and sort together. They found a new place to make a fort, far from the bear. They were happy and safe. +Tom and Ann are friends. They like to play on the farm. They see a big barn. The barn is red and old. They want to go inside. + +"Can we go in the barn?" Tom asks Ann. + +"I don't know. Maybe it is not safe," Ann says. + +"But it looks fun. Maybe there are animals or toys inside," Tom says. + +They think for a while. They are curious. They decide to go in the barn. + +They open the door. They see a lot of hay and dust. They also see a big picture on the wall. The picture is of a man and a horse. The man is wearing a hat and a scarf. The horse is white and fast. + +"Who is that?" Ann asks. + +"I don't know. Maybe he is famous," Tom says. + +They look closer. They see a name under the picture. It says: Roy Rogers and Trigger. + +"Who is Roy Rogers?" Ann asks. + +"I don't know. Maybe he is a cowboy," Tom says. + +They think he is cool. They pretend to be cowboys too. They find some hats and sticks. They make horse noises. They have fun in the barn. They are happy. +Lily and Tom 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 blanket as their sail. They had a map that showed them where to find the gold. + +"Arrr, matey, we are almost there!" Tom said, holding the map. "We just need to pass the white island and then we will see the X." + +Lily looked out of the box and saw a white thing on the table. It was round and had holes in it. She did not know what it was, but it looked like an island. + +"Tom, I see the white island!" she shouted. "It's over there, on the table!" + +Tom looked and saw the white thing too. He did not know what it was either, but it looked like an island. + +"Let's go, Lily!" he said. "We need to get closer to the island and then we can find the treasure!" + +They got out of the box and ran to the table. They climbed on the chairs and reached for the white thing. It was heavy and cold. They saw some black and gray stuff inside it. They did not know what it was, but it looked like dirt. + +"Yuck, what is this?" Lily asked, touching the black and gray stuff. + +"I don't know, but maybe it's the treasure!" Tom said, digging with his fingers. + +They made a big mess on the table and on the floor. They did not see that their mom was watching them from the door. She was not happy. She did not like that they were playing with her ashtray. She did not like that they were making a mess. She did not like that they were pretending to be pirates. + +"Lily! Tom! What are you doing?" she yelled. "That is not an island, that is my ashtray! That is not treasure, that is ash! Stop playing with that and come here right now!" + +Lily and Tom were scared. They dropped the ashtray and jumped off the chairs. They ran to their mom and said they were sorry. + +"We were just playing, mom," Lily said. + +"We did not know, mom," Tom said. + +Mom was still angry, but she also felt sorry for them. She knew they were just using their imagination. She knew they did not mean to be bad. + +"It's okay, kids, I know you were just playing," she said. "But you should not touch my ashtray. It is not a toy. It is not good for you. And you should not make a mess. You need to clean up after yourselves. Do you understand?" + +Lily and Tom nodded. They said they understood. They said they would not touch the ashtray again. They said they would help clean up the mess. + +Mom smiled. She gave them a hug and a kiss. She told them she loved them. She told them they could play pirates again, but only with their own toys. She told them to shut the door when they left the living room. + +Lily and Tom said they loved her too. They said they would shut the door. They said they would play pirates with their own toys. They went back to their box and their blanket. They looked for a new map and a new treasure. They had fun. They were happy. +Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big sign. The sign says: "Come and see the sea animals. They are very interesting." + +"Let's go and see the sea animals," Tom says. "Maybe we can see a fish or a crab or a star." + +"OK," Mia says.

She put on her red mittens and ran outside to play. But then suddenly, she heard a whisper in her ear, coming from the snow. + +The little girl was scared, and she quickly ran inside. She got her mom, who told her not to worry. + +But then the whisper came again. This time it said, "Stay in the snow and you will be happy".

So he asked, "What are you singing about, little bird?" + +The bird replied, "I'm singing about how it's important to care for your friends." + +Harry was amazed at this answer and asked, "How do I care for my friends?" + +The bird replied, "If you care for your friends, you make sure they have what they need. For instance, if your friend is feeling hot and needs some air, you can find them a fan to help cool them down." + +Harry was so thankful for the advice, and he smiled and nodded. He wanted to do something kind for the bird so he brought back a fan from his cave and placed it next to the tree. + +The bird was so happy when it saw the fan.
