He thumps. + +Anna sees him and runs to him. She asks, "Are you okay, Ben?" + +Ben rubs his head and his knee. He feels a little pain, but he is not hurt. He says, "I'm okay, Anna. I was just silly. I jumped too high." + +Anna hugs him and says, "It's okay, Ben. You can try again. Just jump lower and grab the handle. Then you can soar like me." + +Ben smiles and says, "Okay, Anna. Thank you. You are a good sister." + +They hug and go back to the zip line. They take turns and soar together. They have fun and forget about the fall. They are happy. +Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play in the field near their house. The field has many flowers and bugs and birds. Ben and Mia like to look at them and learn their names. + +One day, Ben has a new toy. It is a camera. He can take pictures with it and print them on paper. He shows Mia how it works. He says, "Look, Mia, this is my camera. I can press this button and it makes a picture. Then I can put the paper here and it prints the picture. Do you want to try?" + +Mia nods. She takes the camera and looks around. She sees a butterfly on a flower. She points the camera at it and presses the button. She hears a click and sees a flash. She smiles. She gives the camera back to Ben and waits for the paper. + +Ben puts the paper in the printer. He says, "This is the printer. It makes the picture on the paper. It is very useful. You can keep the paper and show it to your mom and dad. They will like it." He waits for a few seconds and then takes out the paper. He gives it to Mia. + +Mia looks at the paper. She sees the butterfly and the flower. They are very pretty. She says, "Thank you, Ben. This is a nice picture. I like your camera and your printer. They are fun and useful. Can we take more pictures?" + +Ben nods. He says, "Yes, we can. There are many things to see in the field. Let's go and find them." He takes the camera and Mia takes the paper. They run to the field and look for more things to take pictures of. They have a good time. +One day, Lily and her furry cat Max were playing in the garden. They liked to chase each other and hide behind the flowers. Lily was very happy and laughed a lot. + +But then, something bad happened. Lily saw a big dog running towards them. The dog was not friendly. It barked loudly and showed its teeth. Lily was scared and so was Max. They ran away from the dog, but the dog was faster. + +"Help, help!" Lily cried. "Go away, dog!" + +Max tried to protect Lily. He hissed and scratched the dog's nose. The dog yelped and backed off. But then, it saw something shiny on the ground. It was Lily's brush. She had dropped it when she ran. + +The dog picked up the brush with its mouth and ran away with it. It thought it was a toy. Lily and Max watched the dog go. They were safe, but they were sad. + +"Max, I'm sorry. I lost my brush. It was my favorite. It made my hair look pretty," Lily said. + +Max rubbed his head against Lily's leg. He wanted to make her feel better. He did not care about the brush. He cared about Lily. + +"It's okay, Lily. I love you. You are pretty with or without the brush," Max said. + +Lily hugged Max and smiled. She loved him too. He was her best friend. They went back to the house and told Mom what happened. Mom gave them a treat and a new brush. Lily and Max were happy again. They played some more and then took a nap. They dreamed of the garden and the flowers. And they forgot about the dog and the brush. +Lily was a little girl who loved to play in the garden. She liked to dig holes and look for bugs and worms. One day, she found a small, furry animal with a long nose and tiny eyes. It was a mole. + +"Hello, mole!" Lily said. "Do you want to be my friend?" + +The mole was scared of Lily. He did not like the bright sun and the loud noise. He wanted to go back to his dark and quiet home under the ground. But he was too slow to run away from Lily. She picked him up and hugged him. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" the mole squeaked. "Let me go, let me go!" + +Lily did not hear the mole. She thought he was adorable. She wanted to show him to her mom and dad. She ran to the house with the mole in her arms. + +"Look, look, look!" Lily shouted. "I found a new friend! He is so cute and soft!" + +Lily's mom and dad were not happy. They saw the mole and frowned. + +"Lily, that is not a friend. That is a mole. He does not belong in the house. He belongs in the garden. He is not happy here. He is scared and sad. You have to let him go," Lily's mom said. + +Lily did not want to let the mole go. She liked him a lot. But she saw his tiny eyes and his long nose. She saw that he was trembling and trying to hide. She felt sorry for him. + +"OK, OK, OK," Lily said. "I will let him go. But can I say goodbye to him?" + +Lily's mom nodded. Lily bent down and kissed the mole on his head. + +"Goodbye, mole. I'm sorry I scared you. I hope you find your home. Maybe I will see you again in the garden," Lily said. + +She put the mole down on the grass. He quickly dug a hole and disappeared. Lily waved to him. She felt a little sad, but also a little happy. She learned something new today. She learned that some animals are not meant to be friends. She learned to regret. +Lena was a new girl in the class. She was shy and did not talk much. She liked to draw and read books. She did not have any friends yet. + +One day, the teacher said, "Class, we have a new activity today. We will introduce ourselves to each other and share our opinions. An opinion is what you think or feel about something. For example, I like apples, that is my opinion. You can have a different opinion, and that is okay. We will listen and be kind to each other. Who wants to go first?" + +Tom raised his hand. He was loud and liked to talk a lot. He said, "Hello, I am Tom. I like cars and trucks and planes. They are fast and cool and make noises. I think cars and trucks and planes are the best things ever. That is my opinion. Who wants to play with me?" + +Some kids nodded and smiled. They liked cars and trucks and planes too. They wanted to be Tom's friends. But Lena did not. She did not like cars and trucks and planes. She thought they were noisy and boring. She liked flowers and animals and stars. They were pretty and quiet and interesting. She had a different opinion. + +She wanted to say something, but she was afraid. She thought Tom and the other kids would not like her. She thought they would laugh at her or be mean to her. She felt sad and lonely. + +But then, she saw a girl sitting next to her. The girl had curly hair and glasses. She looked friendly and smart. She said, "Hi, I am Mia. I like to draw and read books too. I think flowers and animals and stars are beautiful and fun. That is my opinion. Do you want to be my friend?" + +Lena felt happy and surprised. She said, "Yes, I do. I am Lena. I am new here. I like to draw and read books too. I think we have the same opinion. Thank you for being nice to me." + +Mia smiled and said, "You are welcome. I am glad to meet you. Let's introduce ourselves to the class and share our opinions. Maybe we will find more friends who like the same things as we do." + +Lena nodded and said, "Okay, let's do that. I am not shy anymore. I have a friend now." + +They held hands and stood up. They introduced themselves to the class and shared their opinions. Some kids listened and agreed. Some kids listened and disagreed. But they all listened and were kind. Lena and Mia made more friends. They were happy. They learned that opinions can be different, but friends can be the same. +Lily was a little girl who loved her teddy bear. She always slept with him in her bed and hugged him tight. She named him Brownie because he was brown and soft. + +One morning, Lily woke up and saw that Brownie was not in her bed. She looked around and saw him on the floor. She felt sad and scared. She wondered who took him away from her. + +She got out of bed and picked up Brownie. He was heavy and dirty. She saw a big hole in his tummy and some stuffing coming out. She felt angry and hurt. She wondered who did this to him. + +She ran to her mommy and daddy's room and knocked on the door. She heard them say "come in". She opened the door and saw them sleeping in their bed. She walked to them and said "look what happened to Brownie! Who did this to him?" + +Her mommy and daddy woke up and saw Lily holding Brownie. They felt sorry and surprised. They wondered who did this to him. + +They hugged Lily and said "oh, poor Brownie! We don't know who did this to him, but we can fix him. We can sew his hole and wash his fur and make him look like new. He will be okay, don't worry." + +Lily felt happy and relieved. She said "thank you, mommy and daddy. You are the best. I love you and I love Brownie. He is my adorable teddy bear." +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a furry hat in their mom's closet. It was brown and soft and had two ears on top. Lily wanted to wear the hat, but Ben wanted it too. + +"Give me the hat, Lily!" Ben said. "It is mine!" + +"No, it is mine!" Lily said. "I saw it first!" + +They pulled and tugged on the hat, but neither of them would let go. They started to yell and cry, and their mom heard them. + +"What is going on here?" their mom asked. "Why are you fighting over a hat?" + +They both tried to explain, but their mom was not happy. She took the hat from them and looked at it closely. + +"Do you know what this is?" she asked. "This is not a hat. This is a furry animal. It is a skunk!" + +Lily and Ben gasped. They did not know what a skunk was, but they saw that it had a long tail with black and white stripes. They also smelled something very bad. + +"Yuck!" they said. "It stinks!" + +The skunk was scared and angry. It did not like to be pulled and tugged. It did not like to be called a hat. It did not like to be in a closet. It wanted to be free. So it did what skunks do when they are scared and angry. It sprayed a smelly liquid at Lily and Ben and their mom. + +"Ow!" they said. "It hurts!" + +They ran out of the closet, coughing and sneezing. They were covered in the smelly liquid. They tried to wash it off, but it did not come off easily. They had to use a lot of soap and water and vinegar and baking soda. They had to throw away their clothes and the hat. They had to stay away from other people until the smell went away. + +They learned a hard lesson that day. They learned not to fight over things that are not theirs. They learned not to touch things that they do not know. They learned not to mess with furry animals that can change into stinky weapons. They learned that their actions have results, and sometimes the results are bad. +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a little path in the grass. They want to see where it goes. + +"Let's go, Lily!" Tom says. He holds Lily's hand and they walk on the path. + +"OK, Tom!" Lily says. She is happy and curious. + +The path is twisty and bumpy. It goes up and down. Lily and Tom see flowers and bugs and birds. They laugh and sing. + +Soon, they come to a big tree. The tree has a hole in it. The hole is dark and scary. + +"What is in there, Tom?" Lily asks. She is afraid. + +"I don't know, Lily," Tom says. He is brave. "Let's stand here and look." + +They stand in front of the hole. They peer inside. They hear a noise. + +"Whoosh!" + +A squirrel jumps out of the hole. It runs past Lily and Tom. It has a nut in its mouth. + +Lily and Tom scream. They are surprised and scared. They run away from the hole. They run back to the path. + +"That was a silly squirrel!" Lily says. She is still shaking. + +"Yes, it was!" Tom says. He is still panting. + +They hug each other. They are glad they are safe. + +They decide to go back to the park. They do not want to see the hole again. + +They hold hands and walk on the path. They are still friends. They are still happy. +Tim and Jen were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big rocket in the sky. It was shiny and loud and fast. They wanted to see it up close. + +"Let's go to the rocket!" Tim said. + +"OK!" Jen said. + +They ran to the rocket, but a man stopped them. He wore a black suit and a mask. He had a gun in his hand. + +"Go away, kids!" he said. "This is not a toy. This is a weapon. I'm going to blow up the planet!" + +Tim and Jen were scared, but they did not want the man to hurt the planet. They loved the planet. It was their home. It had trees and flowers and animals and people. + +"No, don't do that!" Tim said. "The planet is good. You are bad!" + +He tried to grab the gun from the man, but the man was stronger. He pushed Tim away and pointed the gun at him. + +"Resist and you die!" he said. + +Jen saw Tim in danger. She wanted to help him. She picked up a rock and threw it at the man. The rock hit the man's mask and broke it. The man screamed and dropped the gun. + +Tim and Jen ran to the gun. They wanted to stop the rocket. But it was too late. The rocket had a timer. It was counting down to zero. + +"Five, four, three, two, one, blast off!" the rocket said. + +The rocket flew away from the park. It went higher and higher, until it reached the space. There, it exploded. It made a big fireball. The fireball hit the planet. The planet shook and cracked and burned. + +Tim and Jen felt the heat and the shock. They hugged each other and cried. They knew they were going to die. They wished they had never seen the rocket. They wished they had stayed in the park. They wished they had said goodbye to their families and friends. They wished they had lived on a different planet. A planet that was cold and safe and far away from the bad man and his rocket. +Mia and Leo like to play pretend. They have a big hoop that they use for many games. Sometimes they pretend it is a car, or a boat, or a rocket. They take turns to be the driver and the passenger. + +One day, they pretend the hoop is a circus ring. Mia is the lion and Leo is the trainer. He holds a stick and says, "Lion, jump through the hoop!" Mia growls and runs to the hoop. She jumps through it and lands on the other side. Leo claps and says, "Good lion, good lion!" + +Mia says, "Now it is your turn, Leo. You be the lion and I be the trainer." Leo agrees and switches places with Mia. She holds the stick and says, "Lion, jump through the hoop!" Leo growls and runs to the hoop. But he is too big and gets stuck in the hoop. He tries to wiggle out, but he can't. He says, "Help, help, I am stuck!" + +Mia runs to Leo and tries to pull him out. She says, "Don't worry, Leo, I will help you." She is gentle and careful not to hurt him. She pulls and pulls, and Leo pushes and pushes. Finally, they get Leo out of the hoop. He is free and happy. He says, "Thank you, Mia, you are a good friend." + +Mia and Leo hug and laugh. They say, "That was a fun game, but next time, let's pretend something else." They pick up the hoop and look for a new game to play. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with their balls in the park. They roll their balls on the grass and catch them. Sometimes they roll their balls under the bridge. The bridge is big and dark. Lily and Ben think it is fun and scary. + +One day, a nosy dog comes to the park. The dog sees the balls and wants to play too. The dog runs after the balls and barks. Lily and Ben are scared of the dog. They run to the bridge and hide under it. They hope the dog will go away. + +But the dog is very nosy. He follows them to the bridge and sniffs under it. He sees Lily and Ben and their balls. He wags his tail and tries to get under the bridge. But the bridge is too low for the dog. He bumps his head and yelps. + +"Go away, dog!" Lily shouts. "These are our balls, not yours!" + +"Leave us alone, dog!" Ben cries. "You are too big and loud!" + +The dog is sad and confused. He does not understand why Lily and Ben do not want to play with him. He thinks they are mean and rude. He turns around and walks away. He looks for another friend in the park. + +Lily and Ben are relieved. They hug each other and their balls. They are happy to be safe under the bridge. They decide to stay there until the dog is gone. They do not want to meet the nosy dog again. +Ben and Lily liked to play with their toy dinosaurs. They had big ones and small ones, green ones and brown ones, ones with spikes and ones with horns. They made them roar and run and fight and eat. + +One day, they found a new dinosaur in the toy box. It was red and shiny and had a long neck and a long tail. Ben and Lily wanted to play with it, but they did not know what it was called. + +"Maybe it is a fire dinosaur," Ben said. "It can breathe fire and burn things." + +"Maybe it is a star dinosaur," Lily said. "It can fly and sparkle and make wishes." + +They decided to take turns playing with it. Ben went first. He made the red dinosaur roar and chase the other dinosaurs. He pretended it was breathing fire and burning the trees and rocks. He had a lot of fun. + +Then it was Lily's turn. She made the red dinosaur fly and sparkle and make wishes. She pretended it was giving gifts and hugs to the other dinosaurs. She had a lot of fun too. + +But then something bad happened. The red dinosaur's neck got stuck in the toy box. Ben and Lily tried to pull it out, but it was too hard. They were sad and scared. They did not want to break their new toy. + +They asked their mom for help. She came and saw the red dinosaur. She smiled and said, "Oh, this is a lucky dinosaur. It is very rare and special. It is called a brontosaurus. It does not breathe fire or fly, but it is very gentle and friendly. It likes to eat leaves and play with other dinosaurs. It is a herbivore." + +She gently untangled the red dinosaur's neck from the toy box. She gave it to Ben and Lily and said, "You can both play with it, but be careful not to hurt it. It is a lucky dinosaur, and you are lucky kids to have it." + +Ben and Lily hugged their mom and thanked her. They hugged their red dinosaur and said sorry. They decided to share it and play nicely with it. They made it roar and eat and play with the other dinosaurs. They were happy and lucky. +Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big box near the slide. They are curious. They want to know what is in the box. + +"Let's open it!" Tom says. + +"OK!" Sam says. + +They run to the box and pull the lid. The lid is hard to move. They see a rope around the box. The rope is tied. + +"Who tied the rope?" Tom asks. + +"I don't know. Maybe we can untie it." Sam says. + +They try to untie the rope. The rope is tight and knot. They pull and tug. They can't untie it. + +"Maybe we can cut it." Tom says. + +He looks around. He sees a pair of scissors on the grass. He picks up the scissors. + +"Be careful!" Sam says. + +Tom runs to the box with the scissors. He tries to cut the rope. He cuts too fast. He slips. He cuts his hand. He cries. + +"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Tom says. + +Sam runs to Tom. He sees blood on Tom's hand. He is scared. + +"Help! Help! Help!" Sam says. + +He looks for help. He sees no one. The park is empty. They are alone. They are in trouble. +Ben was a boy who liked to sleep a lot. He had a big bed with a soft pillow and a blue blanket. He also had a toy elephant that he hugged every night. The toy elephant was his best friend. + +One morning, Ben heard a loud noise outside his window. He opened his eyes and saw a big shadow. He rubbed his eyes and looked again. It was a real elephant! The elephant was very big and had a long trunk and big ears. It was walking on the street and making a lot of noise. + +Ben was very surprised and curious. He jumped out of bed and ran to the window. He waved at the elephant and said hello. The elephant saw Ben and waved back with its trunk. It also made a funny sound that sounded like a laugh. + +Ben smiled and laughed too. He thought the elephant was very unusual and friendly. He wanted to play with it. He grabbed his toy elephant and ran downstairs. He opened the door and ran outside. He called the elephant and showed it his toy. + +The elephant came closer and looked at the toy. It touched it gently with its trunk and made another funny sound. It seemed to like the toy. It also liked Ben. It let Ben climb on its back and gave him a ride. Ben was very happy and excited. He had a new friend. + +The end. +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big truck in the park. The truck has a picture of a tiger on it. Lily and Ben want to see the tiger. + +They run to the truck and look inside. They see a big cage with a big tiger. The tiger has orange and black fur and sharp teeth. The tiger looks at them and roars. + +"Wow, look at the tiger!" Lily says. + +"Can we speak to the tiger?" Ben asks. + +Lily and Ben try to speak to the tiger. They say hello and ask the tiger's name. But the tiger does not speak back. He only roars and growls. + +A man comes out of the truck. He wears a hat and a coat. He is the tiger's keeper. He sees Lily and Ben and smiles. + +"Hello, kids. Do you like the tiger?" he asks. + +"Yes, we do. He is very big and beautiful. But he does not speak to us. Why not?" Lily says. + +"Well, tigers do not speak like people. They have their own way of talking. They roar and growl and purr. They use their ears and tails and eyes to show how they feel. They are very smart animals, but they are not like us." the man says. + +"Oh, I see. But can we be friends with the tiger?" Ben asks. + +"Maybe, but you have to be very careful. The tiger is not a pet. He is a wild animal. He can be very dangerous. He needs a lot of space and food and care. He is not happy in the cage. He belongs to the jungle." the man says. + +"Then why is he in the cage? Why is he in the truck?" Lily asks. + +"Well, he is a famous tiger. He is a star. He works in the circus. He does tricks and shows for people. He makes people happy and amazed. He is very good at his job. But he also needs a break. He needs to rest and relax. That's why we are taking him to the park. We want to give him some fresh air and sunshine. We want to make him happy too." the man says. + +Lily and Ben think about the tiger. They feel sorry for him. They wish he could go back to the jungle. They wish he could be free and happy. + +They say goodbye to the tiger and the man. They thank them for letting them see the tiger. They wave and smile. + +The tiger looks at them and roars. He sounds sad and lonely. He wishes he could go back to the jungle. He wishes he could be free and happy. +Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. But they did not like Tom, who was mean to them. Tom liked to tease Anna and Ben and make them sad. + +One day, Tom saw Anna and Ben making a sand castle. He ran over and kicked it down. "Ha ha, your castle is ugly!" he said. Anna and Ben felt angry and hurt. They wanted to make Tom stop. + +They saw a big puddle of mud near the swings. They had an idea. They pretended to chase Tom and make him run away. Tom thought he was faster and smarter than them. He did not see the mud. + +Tom stepped in the puddle and slipped. He fell down and got covered in mud. He felt wet and dirty and cold. He started to cry. Anna and Ben laughed at him. "Ha ha, you are muddy!" they said. + +But then they saw Tom's face. He looked fearful and sad. He wanted to go home. Anna and Ben felt sorry for him. They remembered how it felt to be teased. They stopped laughing and helped Tom get up. + +They said, "We are sorry, Tom. We should not have teased you. It was not nice. Do you want to play with us?" Tom nodded. He said, "I am sorry, too. I should not have kicked your castle. It was mean. Can we be friends?" Anna and Ben smiled. They said, "Yes, we can be friends. Come on, let's go wash the mud off and have fun." + +The moral of the story is: Teasing is not fun. It hurts people's feelings. It is better to be kind and make friends. +Ben and Lily are playing on the beach. They have a big bucket and a shovel. They dig a hole and fill it with water. They make a pond for their toy boats. + +Ben has a blue boat and Lily has a red boat. They put their boats in the pond and watch them float. They have fun making waves and splashing. + +But then Ben sees something shiny in the sand. He picks it up and looks at it. It is a small anchor. It is silver and has a rope. Ben likes the anchor. He thinks it is cool. + +He ties the anchor to his blue boat and puts it back in the pond. He pulls the rope and makes his boat go fast. He smiles and says, "Look, Lily, my boat has an anchor. It is better than yours." + +Lily feels sad. She wants an anchor too. She looks at her red boat and thinks it is boring. She says, "Ben, can I have a turn with the anchor? Can we share?" + +Ben shakes his head. He says, "No, Lily, this is my anchor. I found it. You can't have it. Go find your own." + +Lily starts to cry. She says, "That's not fair, Ben. You are being mean. Sharing is nice. We are friends. Friends share." + +Ben hears Lily cry and feels sorry. He remembers that sharing is nice. He remembers that Lily is his friend. He says, "I'm sorry, Lily. You are right. Friends share. Here, you can have a turn with the anchor. We can take turns. We can both have fun." + +Lily stops crying and smiles. She says, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. I'm sorry I was sad. Here, you can have a turn with my red boat. We can both have fun." + +Ben and Lily hug and say sorry. They share their boats and their anchor. They play together and have fun. They are happy. They are clean. They are friends. +Tommy likes to organize his toys. He puts his cars in one box, his animals in another, and his blocks in a third. He likes to make neat rows and piles. He says it makes him happy. + +One day, his mom says he needs a haircut. She takes him to the barber shop. Tommy is a little scared. He does not like the scissors and the buzzer. He thinks they are loud and sharp. + +The barber is a nice man. He smiles at Tommy and gives him a sticker. He says, "Don't worry, little buddy. I am a reliable barber. I will make you look handsome and tidy. Just like your toys." + +He asks Tommy what kind of haircut he wants. Tommy says, "I want to organize my hair. I want it short and straight. No curls or bangs." + +The barber nods and says, "Okay, I can do that. You are a smart boy. You know what you like." He puts a cape around Tommy and starts to cut his hair. He talks to Tommy about his toys and his favorite colors. He makes Tommy laugh and relax. + +Soon, Tommy's haircut is done. He looks in the mirror and smiles. He likes his new hair. It is short and straight. Just like he wanted. He says, "Thank you, Mr. Barber. You are a reliable barber. You made me look handsome and tidy. Just like my toys." + +The barber says, "You are very welcome, Tommy. You are a good customer. You were brave and polite. Come back anytime." He gives Tommy another sticker and a lollipop. + +Tommy hugs his mom and says, "I like the barber shop. It is fun and neat. Can we come back again?" + +His mom says, "Yes, we can. But not too soon. Your hair needs to grow a little first." She kisses his head and says, "I love you, Tommy. You are my organized boy." +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in their room. They had many toys and books and puzzles, but sometimes they got bored. One day, they saw a big box in the corner of the room. It was their dad's box of tools and wires and things. They wanted to see what was inside. + +"Let's crawl to the box and open it," Tom said. "Maybe we can find something fun." + +"No, Tom, we can't do that," Lily said. "Dad said the box is not for us. It has sharp and dangerous things. We might get hurt or break something." + +But Tom did not listen to Lily. He was naughty and curious. He crawled to the box and lifted the lid. He saw many shiny and colorful things. He grabbed a strip of metal and pulled it out. It was long and bendy and made a funny noise. + +"Look, Lily, I found a snake!" Tom said. He waved the strip of metal in the air. + +"That's not a snake, Tom, that's a wire," Lily said. "Put it back, Tom, it's not a toy. It can shock you or start a fire." + +But Tom did not listen to Lily. He was naughty and silly. He wrapped the strip of metal around his arm and pretended to be a superhero. He ran around the room and shouted. + +"Zap, zap, I'm Super Tom! I can shoot lightning from my arm!" + +Suddenly, he felt a pain in his arm. He screamed and dropped the strip of metal. It had sparks and smoke coming out of it. It had burned his skin and his shirt. He started to cry. + +Lily ran to Tom and hugged him. She was scared and sorry. She called for their mom and dad. They came quickly and saw what had happened. They were angry and worried. They took Tom to the bathroom and put some cream on his arm. They threw away the strip of metal and closed the box. They scolded Tom and Lily for being naughty and careless. + +"Tom, Lily, you should never touch dad's box of tools and wires and things," mom said. "They are not for playing. They are for working. They can hurt you or damage the house. You are lucky you are not more hurt. You could have been electrocuted." + +"Electro-what?" Tom asked. + +"Electrocuted means to get a big shock from electricity," dad said. "Electricity is what makes the lights and the TV and the fridge work. But it can also be very dangerous if you don't use it properly. You should never play with wires or plugs or sockets. You should always ask us before you touch anything that has electricity." + +Tom and Lily nodded. They felt ashamed and sorry. They apologized to their mom and dad. They promised to never touch dad's box of tools and wires and things again. They learned their lesson. They hugged their mom and dad and said they loved them. + +Mom and dad hugged them back and said they loved them too. They said they were glad they were okay. They said they were proud of them for being brave and honest. They said they hoped they would be more careful and obedient next time. + +Tom and Lily smiled. They said they would. They went back to their room and played with their toys and books and puzzles. They did not get bored. They had fun. They were happy. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom. One day, they see a big bus on the road. The bus is yellow and has many windows. Anna and Ben want to ride the bus. + +"Mom, can we go on the bus?" they ask. + +"Maybe another day, sweeties. The bus is not for us. It is for the school kids," mom says. + +But Anna and Ben do not listen. They run to the bus stop. They see the bus driver. He is wearing a hat and a uniform. He smiles at them. + +"Hello, little ones. Do you want to ride the bus?" he asks. + +"Yes, please!" Anna and Ben say. + +"OK, hop on. But be careful. The bus is very big and fast. It can be dangerous," the bus driver says. + +He gives them two tickets and lets them sit in the front. Anna and Ben are very happy. They look out the windows and see the cars and the trees and the people. They wave at them. + +The bus driver is nice. He tells them stories and jokes. He shows them the buttons and the horn. He lets them say hello to the other kids on the bus. + +But mom is not happy. She is very worried. She does not see Anna and Ben at the park. She looks for them everywhere. She asks the other moms and the park ranger. No one knows where they are. + +She calls dad on the phone. She tells him what happened. Dad is very angry and scared. He tells mom to stay at the park. He says he will find them. + +He gets in his car and drives fast. He follows the bus route. He hopes he can catch up with the bus. He hopes Anna and Ben are OK. + +He sees the bus at a red light. He honks his horn and waves his arms. He tries to get the bus driver's attention. But the bus driver does not see him. He drives away when the light turns green. + +Dad is very frustrated. He tries to follow the bus. But the traffic is bad. There are many cars and trucks and bikes. He has to stop and wait and turn. He loses sight of the bus. + +He thinks he will never find Anna and Ben. He feels very sad and sorry. He wishes he had been at the park with them. He wishes they had listened to mom. + +But then he sees something. He sees a big sign that says "School". He sees a lot of kids getting off the bus. He sees Anna and Ben among them.

They say thank you for the ride and the stories and the jokes. They say they will never run away again. + +The bus driver is very kind and understanding. He says he is glad they are safe and sound. He says he is sorry he did not notice dad and mom. He says he will be more careful next time. He says he hopes they will ride the bus again someday. But only with permission. + +Dad and mom are very grateful and forgiving. They say thank you to the bus driver. They say thank you for taking care of Anna and Ben.

But only at the park. + +Anna and Ben are very happy and sorry. They hug dad and mom and the bus driver. They hug each other. They learn a lesson. They learn that the bus is fun and exciting. But it can also be dangerous and scary. They learn that they should always listen to dad and mom. They learn that they should always say thank you. They learn that they love each other. +Tom and Lily were playing hide and seek in the park. It was getting dark and they had to go home soon. Tom was the seeker and Lily was the hider. She ran behind a big tree and waited for Tom to find her. + +Tom looked around and saw a big shadow on the ground. He thought it was Lily and ran towards it. But it was not Lily. It was a bald man with a mean face and a big bag. He grabbed Tom and put him in his bag. Tom screamed and kicked, but the man was too strong. + +Lily heard Tom's scream and came out of her hiding spot. She saw the bald man running away with Tom in his bag. She was scared and sad. She wanted to help Tom, but she did not know what to do. She ran after the man, but he was too fast. She shouted for help, but no one heard her. + +The bald man took Tom to his car and drove away. He was a bad man who stole children and sold them to other bad people. Tom was in big trouble and he missed Lily. He wished he had never played hide and seek in the dark. He wished he had stayed close to Lily. He wished he had gone home with her. But it was too late. He was gone. +Lila and Ben were twins who liked to play near the harbor. They loved to watch the boats and the birds and the water. But sometimes they saw trash in the water and on the shore. They felt sad that the harbor was not clean. + +One day, they decided to help clean the harbor. They asked their mom for a big bag and some gloves. They walked along the shore and picked up the trash they saw. They found cans, bottles, papers, and even a shoe. They put them all in the bag. + +As they were cleaning, they saw a small bird with a delicate wing. It was stuck in a net and could not fly. Lila and Ben carefully freed the bird from the net and held it gently. They saw that the bird was hurt and scared. They decided to take it to the vet. + +They asked a nice man with a boat to take them to the vet. He agreed and praised them for cleaning the harbor. He said they were very kind and brave.

One day, he had to fly a new plane that was very fast and shiny. He was excited to try it out. + +He got in the plane and put on his helmet. He pressed some buttons and the plane started to make a loud noise. He moved a stick and the plane went up in the air. He felt happy and proud. He flew over the clouds and the sun. He saw other planes and waved at them. + +But then, something strange happened. He heard a beep and a voice in his helmet. The voice said: "Warning, warning, shrinking device activated. You have 10 seconds to eject." Tom was confused and scared. He did not know what a shrinking device was. He looked at his hands and feet. They were getting smaller and smaller. He felt dizzy and sick. + +He tried to find the eject button, but it was too far away. He could not reach it. He shouted: "Help, help, I'm shrinking!" But no one heard him. He was too small and quiet. The plane was too big and loud. + +He shrank until he was as small as a bug. He fell out of his seat and landed on the floor. He saw a big hole in the wall. He crawled towards it. He hoped to find a way out. He did not want to be a tiny pilot. He wanted to be a big pilot again. He wondered if anyone would ever find him. He felt sad and lonely. He wished he had never flown the new plane. +Lily and Ben were playing in the living room. They saw a big vase on the table. It was blue and green and had flowers on it. Lily thought it was pretty. Ben thought it was weird. + +"Look at that vase," Lily said. "It has flowers on it. Do you like it?" + +Ben shook his head. "No, I don't like it. It is weird. It has too many colors. And the flowers are not real. They are made of paper." + +Lily frowned. "I think it is nice. It has many colors. And the paper flowers are fun. You can touch them and they don't hurt you." + +Ben and Lily started to discuss the vase. They talked about why they liked it or not. They did not agree. They raised their voices. They did not listen to each other. + +Mom heard them from the kitchen. She came to the living room. She saw them arguing about the vase. She smiled. + +"Kids, what are you doing?" she asked. + +"We are discussing the vase," Lily said. + +"We don't like the same thing," Ben said. + +Mom nodded. "I see. Well, it is okay to have different opinions. You can like different things. But you should also respect each other. And you should not yell. You should talk nicely." + +Lily and Ben looked at each other. They felt sorry. They said sorry. + +"Sorry, Lily. I was rude. You can like the vase. It is pretty in your way." + +"Sorry, Ben. I was mean. You can not like the vase. It is weird in your way." + +Mom hugged them. "That's better. I'm glad you are friends again. And you know what? I like the vase too. It was a gift from your grandma. She made it herself. She wanted to make something special for us. She loves us very much." + +Lily and Ben smiled. They looked at the vase again. They saw it differently. But they also saw the love in it. They said thank you to mom. And they said thank you to grandma in their hearts. +Lila and Tom are friends. They like to run and play in the park. One day, they see a big slide. It is shiny and red. They want to go on the slide. + +Lila goes first. She climbs up the steps and sits on the slide.

Sometimes they play soccer, sometimes they play tag, sometimes they play hide and seek. But Tom is bossy. He always wants to win. He always wants to make the rules. He always wants to have the trophy. + +One day, they play soccer in the yard. Tom has a big trophy. He says, "If I score a goal, I get the trophy. If you score a goal, you get nothing." Lily says, "That is not fair. We should share the trophy." Tom says, "No, this is my game. You have to do what I say." + +They kick the ball. Tom runs fast. He tries to score a goal. But Lily is smart. She blocks the ball. She kicks the ball to the other side. She scores a goal. She is happy. She says, "I scored a goal. I get the trophy." Tom is angry. He says, "No, you cheated. You can't have the trophy." + +He runs to the trophy. He tries to grab it. But the trophy is heavy. He can't lift it. He says, "This trophy is too big. It weighs a lot." Lily says, "Maybe you should let me help you. We can carry it together." Tom says, "No, I don't need your help. I can do it by myself." + +He pulls the trophy. He loses his balance. He falls down. The trophy falls on him. He says, "Ouch, that hurts. The trophy is too hard." Lily says, "Are you okay? Do you want me to help you?" Tom says, "Yes, please. I'm sorry. I was too bossy. Can we share the trophy?" Lily says, "Of course. We are twins. We should share everything." She helps him up. They hug. They carry the trophy together. They are happy. +Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and look for bugs. Lily had a shovel and Ben had a rake. They worked hard and made a big hole. + +"Look, Lily, I found something!" Ben said. He held up a small, furry animal. It had a long nose and tiny eyes. It was a mole. + +"What is that?" Lily asked. She had never seen a mole before. She was curious and scared. + +"It's a mole. It lives under the ground. It can dig very fast. It's not a bug, it's a mammal. Like us." Ben said. He liked to learn new things and show them to Lily. + +"Can I touch it?" Lily asked. She reached out her hand slowly. + +"Be careful. It might bite. It's scared too." Ben said. He put the mole on the ground and let it go. The mole ran away and disappeared into another hole. + +"Wow, that was cool. But it was heavy. It made my arm tired." Ben said. He rubbed his arm. + +"Let's find something else. Maybe a worm or a beetle. They are not heavy. They are slimy and crunchy." Lily said. She picked up her shovel and started to dig again. + +Ben nodded and followed her. They enjoyed playing in the garden and discovering new things. They were happy. +Lily and Tom were playing hide and seek in the park. Lily was the seeker and Tom was the hider. Tom ran behind a big tree and waited for Lily to find him. He thought he was very cool and clever. + +Lily looked around the park and saw many places where Tom could hide. She saw a slide, a swing, a bench, and a fountain. She checked each one, but she did not see Tom. She started to feel worried. Where was Tom? Did he vanish? + +She called out, "Tom, where are you? I can't find you. Come out, come out, wherever you are!" + +Tom heard Lily's voice and smiled. He wanted to surprise her. He waited for a few seconds, then jumped out from behind the tree and shouted, "Boo!" + +Lily was startled and screamed. Then she saw it was Tom and laughed. She ran to him and hugged him. "You scared me, Tom! You are very good at hiding. But don't vanish again, okay? I want you to be safe." + +Tom hugged her back and said, "Okay, Lily. I'm sorry. I won't vanish again. You are very good at seeking. And you are very cool and nice." + +They smiled at each other and decided to play another game. They had a lot of fun in the park. They were happy and safe. +Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big pile of dirt and decided to make a cake with it.

They were very proud of their work and wanted to taste it. + +"Yum, this looks good!" said Lily. + +"Let's try it!" said Ben. + +They each took a big bite of their dirt cake and made a face. It was filthy and bitter and made them cough. They spit out the dirt and felt sick. They realized they had made a big mistake. + +"Yuck, this is not a cake!" said Lily. + +"This is not food!" said Ben. + +They ran to the water fountain and rinsed their mouths. They felt sorry for being silly and wasting their time. They learned that dirt is not for eating and that they should be careful with what they put in their mouths. + +The moral of the story is: Do not eat dirt or anything that is not food. It is filthy and can make you sick. Only eat what your parents or teachers give you. They know what is good for you. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together. They have many toys, but they want to buy new ones. They have an idea. They can sell some of their old toys and get money. + +They put their toys in a big box.

Some people are walking, some people are running, some people are going to the gym. + +"Hello, do you want to buy some toys?" Anna asks a lady who is walking her dog. + +"Let me see what you have," the lady says. She looks in the box. She sees a lovely doll, a car, a ball, a puzzle, and a book. "How much is the doll?" she asks. + +"The doll is two dollars," Ben says. + +"That's a good price. I'll take the doll. It's for my niece. She loves dolls," the lady says. She gives Ben two dollars and takes the doll. + +"Thank you!" Anna and Ben say. + +They are happy. They have sold one toy. They hope to sell more toys and buy new ones. They smile and wave to the lady and her dog. They wait for the next customer. +Lily liked to design things with her yogurt. She would make shapes and patterns on her plate with her spoon. She would pretend they were flowers, stars, or animals. She liked to show her mom and dad what she made. + +One day, Lily wanted to design something special for her mom's birthday. She asked her dad for some yogurt and a plate. He gave her a big smile and said, "Sure, Lily. You can use the yogurt in the fridge. But don't make a mess, okay?" + +Lily went to the fridge and opened it. She looked for the yogurt, but she could not find it. She saw milk, cheese, eggs, and juice, but no yogurt. She felt sad and confused. Where was the yogurt? + +She closed the fridge and went back to her dad. She said, "Dad, there is no yogurt in the fridge. It is empty. How can I design something for mom?" + +Her dad hugged her and said, "Don't worry, Lily. I have a surprise for you. Come with me." + +He took her to the car and drove to the store. He bought some yogurt and some fruit. He said, "Lily, you can use these to design something for mom. You can make a fruit salad with yogurt. Mom loves fruit salad. Do you want to help me?" + +Lily nodded and smiled. She said, "Yes, dad. I want to help you. Thank you for the yogurt and the fruit. I think mom will like our design." + +They went home and made the fruit salad with yogurt. They put it in a big bowl and decorated it with some mint leaves.

They had a big tub of water in the backyard where they could sail their boat and pretend to be pirates.

Lila has a red car and Tom has a blue car. + +"Look, Lila, I can turn my car like this!" Tom says. He moves his car in a circle on the floor. + +"That's cool, Tom, but I can turn my car like this!"

Go away!" + +Sam did not listen to Lily. He kept playing with his car. He made it zoom and beep louder and louder. He wanted to annoy Lily. + +Lily got very angry. She got up from her bed and rushed to Sam. She grabbed his car and threw it out of the window. + +"Hey, that's my car!" Sam cried. "Give it back to me!" + +Sam ran to the window and looked outside.

Lily asked. + +Sam showed her a white thing in his hand. "This is an eraser. It can help you erase some things, like pencils. But not crayons. Crayons are too hard to erase. You need to use something else," he said. + +"What else can I use?" Lily wondered. + +Sam looked around and found a tissue. "You can use this tissue. It can rub off some of the crayon. But not all of it. You have to be careful and gentle. Let me teach you how to do it," he said. + +He took the tissue and rubbed it on the paper. He showed Lily how to erase some of the crayon. Lily watched and learned. She tried to do it herself. She erased some of the crayon and made the dog look more like a cow. She was happy. + +"Thank you, Sam. You taught me something interesting. Now I can fix my mistakes," she said. + +"You're welcome, Lily. I'm glad you learned something new. You're a good artist. Keep drawing and have fun," he said. + +They hugged and smiled.

He does not look happy. But he does not want to make his mom angry. He asks Tom and Mia if he can play with them. Tom and Mia are not sure. But they are kind and forgiving. They say yes, he can play. But he has to be gentle and respectful. + +They all play together. They cook grass and flowers and make soup. They take turns and share. They laugh and have fun. The park is peaceful and happy. +Tim and Mia like to play in the park. They see a big pipe that goes under the ground. They wonder what is inside the pipe. + +"Let's go in the pipe and see," Tim says. + +"OK, but be careful," Mia says. + +They crawl into the pipe. It is dark and wet. They hear a loud noise. It is a wild animal. It is angry and hungry. It wants to destroy them. + +"Run, run, run!" Tim shouts. + +They run out of the pipe. The wild animal follows them. It is a big bear. It roars and shows its teeth. + +"Help, help, help!" Mia screams. + +They see a man with a big stick. He is a park ranger. He sees the bear and the children. He hits the bear with the stick.

They want to go on the boat and see the water. + +They get on the boat and look around. They see a big wheel and some ropes. Ben says, "Let's pretend we are sailors. We can go to an island and find treasure." Anna nods and smiles. They take turns to spin the wheel and pull the ropes. + +But they do not know that the boat is not a toy. It is a real boat that belongs to a man. The man is not in the park. He is in a shop. He left the boat there for a little while. He does not know that Anna and Ben are on his boat. + +The boat starts to move. The wind pushes it away from the park. Anna and Ben are scared. They do not know how to stop the boat. They do not know where they are going. They see the water get bigger and bigger. They do not see the park anymore. + +They see an island. It has trees and sand and rocks. They hope there is someone on the island who can help them. They call for help. They shout, "Help! Help! We are lost! We are on a boat!" + +But no one hears them. No one is on the island. It is a lonely island. Anna and Ben are alone. They are sad and sorry. They wish they did not go on the boat. They wish they were honest and asked the man first.

It has many toys inside. They are happy and excited. + +"Look, Mia, a train!" Tim says. He takes the train and makes it go on the grass. "Choo-choo!" + +"Look, Tim, a doll!" Mia says. She takes the doll and hugs it. "She is pretty!" + +They play with the new toys for a long time. They forget about the blocks and cars. They do not see Sam, who is watching them from the fence. Sam is sad and lonely. He wants to play with them, but he is shy and scared. + +Sam has a ball. He likes to throw it and catch it. He thinks the ball is his best friend. He thinks the ball has a lot of value. He wishes he could share it with Tim and Mia. + +One day, he decides to be brave. He walks to the fence and calls them. "Hi, Tim! Hi, Mia! Can I play with you?" + +Tim and Mia look at him. They see his ball. They think it is old and boring. They do not want to play with it. They do not want to play with Sam. + +"No, thank you," Tim says. "We have new toys. They are better than your ball." + +"Yeah, go away," Mia says. "We do not need you. You are slow and silly." + +Sam feels hurt and angry. He runs away with his ball. He cries and cries. He thinks Tim and Mia are mean and rude.

You are brave, Mia." + +Mia stopped crying and smiled at Sam. She said, "Thank you, Sam. You are kind. You comfort me." She hugged Sam and he hugged her back. They walked to the bench and sat down.

They held hands and went to play again. +Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big ice cream truck. They ran to the truck and asked for ice cream. + +"What flavor do you want?" the man in the truck said. + +"I want chocolate!" Ben said. + +"I want strawberry!" Lily said. + +The man gave them their ice cream cones. Ben and Lily licked their ice cream. It was cold and sweet. They smiled. + +They walked to a bench and sat down. They saw a big dog.

Ben said. + +The dog licked Lily's cone. Lily cried. + +"Stop, dog! This is my ice cream!" Lily said. + +The dog did not listen. It bit the tip of Ben's cone. It bit the tip of Lily's cone.

She says they can stir the cake mix. + +Lily and Ben take turns to stir the cake mix. They stir it fast and slow, round and round, up and down. They see the cake mix change from dry to wet, from lumpy to smooth. They smell the sweet and yummy cake mix. They smile and giggle. + +Mom says they did a good job.

It looks like a bird. + +"Let's fly a kite too!" Lily says. She runs to the shed and gets a kite. It is green and purple and orange. It looks like a butterfly. + +Tom follows her. He helps her tie the string to the kite. They run to the field. The wind is strong. It makes the kite go up and up. + +"Wow, look at our kite!" Tom says. He feels happy. + +Lily feels happy too. She holds the string with Tom. They watch the kite dance in the wind. + +But then, something bad happens. A big black bird sees the kite. It thinks it is a butterfly. It wants to eat it. It flies fast and dives at the kite. + +"Watch out!" Lily shouts. She feels scared. + +Tom feels scared too. He pulls the string hard. He tries to save the kite. But it is too late.

Sam says. + +"They are in a big box in the yard," Lily says. + +"Can we see them?" Anna says. + +"Sure, you can see them, but you can't touch them," Tom says. + +"Why not?" Sam says. + +"Because they are ours, and we don't want to share them," Lily says. + +"That's not nice," Anna says. + +"You are being greedy and mean," Sam says. + +Tom and Lily feel angry and hurt. They don't like their friends to say bad things about them.

You have to give it back to her and say sorry." Mom said. + +"But I want the doll!" Tom said. "It is better than my truck. My truck is old and distant." + +Mom shook her head. She did not understand what Tom meant by distant. She thought he meant that his truck was far away or not interesting. + +"Tom, your truck is not distant. It is right here. And it is a good toy. You can play with it and make noises and pretend to drive. Lily likes her doll because she can dress it and comb its hair and pretend to be a mommy. You have different toys because you like different things. And that is okay. But you have to respect Lily's choice and not take her toy. That is the law." Mom explained. + +Tom looked at his truck and then at the doll. He realized that Mom was right. He did not really want the doll. He just wanted something new.

She is very sad. + +She picks up Anna and Ben. She takes them to the bathroom. She cleans their wounds. She puts bandages on them. She gives them hugs and kisses. + +She says, "I'm sorry, Anna and Ben. I love you. But you have to be more careful. You have to listen to me. You have to stop playing with the blocks.

He sees that they are angry and sad. He feels sorry. He swims back to them. He shakes his fur and wags his tail. He licks their faces and says, "Woof, woof! I am sorry. I love you." + +Tom and Sam are patient. They forgive Spot. They hug him and say, "We love you too, Spot. But you have to be a good dog. You have to listen to us. You have to stay on your leash." + +Spot nods and says, "Woof, woof! I will be a good dog. I will listen to you. I will stay on my leash." + +Tom and Sam smile and say, "Good boy, Spot. Let's go home and have a snack." + +They fix the leash and walk home with Spot. They are happy and tired. They have a snack and a nap. They dream of the pond and the ducks and the fish. They dream of playing with Spot. They are a happy family. +Tim hated his brain. His brain made him do bad things. His brain made him hit his sister, break his toys, and yell at his mom. His mom was sad and angry. She said Tim had to go to his room and think about what he did. + +Tim went to his room, but he did not think. He was too mad. He threw his pillow, his books, and his teddy bear. He wanted to break everything. He saw his lamp on his nightstand. His lamp was light and shiny. He liked his lamp. But his brain said, "Break it! Break it!" + +Tim grabbed his lamp and lifted it over his head. He was about to smash it on the floor, when he heard a loud noise. It was his mom. She opened the door and saw Tim with the lamp. She screamed, "No, Tim! Stop!" + +Tim was scared. He dropped the lamp. It fell on his foot. It hurt a lot. He cried. His mom ran to him and hugged him. She said, "Tim, what are you doing? Why are you so angry? I love you, but you can't do this. You have to use your brain for good things, not bad things." + +Tim felt sorry. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I hate my brain. It makes me do bad things." + +His mom said, "No, Tim. You don't hate your brain. Your brain is a part of you. It helps you learn, play, and dream. But sometimes, your brain gets confused or frustrated. That's okay. It happens to everyone. You just have to calm down and talk to me. I can help you. I can teach you how to use your brain for good things, not bad things." + +Tim nodded. He said, "Okay, mom. I want to use my brain for good things. I love you, mom." + +His mom said, "I love you too, Tim. Now, let's clean up this mess and put a band-aid on your foot. Then, we can read a story together. How does that sound?" + +Tim smiled. He said, "That sounds good, mom. Thank you, mom." + +He hugged his mom. He felt better. He did not hate his brain anymore. He wanted to use his brain for good things. He learned a lesson. He was happy. +Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run, jump and slide. They were happy and laughed a lot. The sun was shining and the sky was blue. + +But then, a big cloud came and covered the sun. It became dark and cold. Tom and Lily heard a loud noise. It was thunder. They saw a bright flash. It was lightning. They were scared and ran to find their mom. + +"Mom, mom, where are you?" they shouted. But they could not see her. She was on the other side of the park, talking to a friend. She did not hear them. Tom and Lily felt lost and helpless. They did not know what to do. + +They saw a big tree and ran to it. They hoped the tree would keep them safe from the rain and the storm. They hugged each other and cried. They worried that their mom would not find them. They worried that the storm would hurt them. + +But the tree was not safe. It was old and weak. The wind was strong and pushed the tree. The tree fell down and hit Tom and Lily. They screamed and felt a lot of pain. They could not move. They could not breathe. They could not see. They were gone. +Lily and Ben were squirrels who liked to play in the park. They liked to find nuts and hide them in their nests. One day, they saw a big tree with many nuts on it. They ran to the tree and started to pick the nuts. + +"Look, Lily, this nut is pink!" Ben said. He showed Lily a nut that was different from the others. It was pink and shiny and had a sweet smell. + +"Wow, Ben, that is a special nut!" Lily said. She wanted to have the nut too. She reached for it, but Ben pulled it away. + +"No, Lily, this is my nut. I found it first. You can have the other nuts," Ben said. He held the nut close to his chest. + +Lily felt sad and angry. She thought Ben was not fair. She wanted to share the nut with him. She tried to grab the nut from him, but he ran away. + +"Stop, Ben, stop! Give me the nut!" Lily shouted. She chased Ben around the tree. + +They did not see a big dog that was walking in the park. The dog heard the noise and saw the squirrels. He thought they were playing with a toy. He wanted to play too. He ran to the tree and barked. + +Lily and Ben were scared. They saw the dog and forgot about the nut. They climbed up the tree and hid in the branches. + +The dog jumped and tried to catch them, but he could not reach them. He saw the pink nut on the ground. He sniffed it and licked it. He liked it. He picked it up with his mouth and ran away. + +Lily and Ben watched the dog go. They felt sorry for losing the nut. They looked at each other and whispered. + +"I'm sorry, Lily. I was mean to you. I should have shared the nut with you," Ben said. + +"I'm sorry, Ben. I was greedy. I should have let you have the nut. It was yours," Lily said. + +They hugged and said they were still friends. They decided to find more nuts together. They hoped they would find another pink nut someday. +Lily and Ben were playing with their crayons and paper. They liked to draw pictures of their family, their pets and their toys. Lily was very gentle with her crayons. She did not break them or make them dirty. Ben was not so gentle. He pressed hard on his paper and snapped his crayons in half. + +"Look, Lily, I made a picture of a monster!" Ben said, holding up his paper. It had a big scribble of red and black. + +"That's not a nice picture, Ben. It's scary and messy," Lily said, frowning. She showed him her picture of a flower. It had yellow and green and pink. + +"I like my picture. It's fun and cool," Ben said, sticking out his tongue. He grabbed Lily's picture and tore it in half. + +"Ben, no! That's mean and rude!" Lily cried, feeling sad and angry. She tried to get her picture back, but Ben was stronger. + +"Let go, Lily. It's my picture now," Ben said, pulling hard. + +"Let go, Ben. It's my picture. You broke it," Lily said, pulling harder. + +They both pulled and pulled, until their mom came in and saw them. + +"Stop, stop, stop! What are you doing?" Mom said, taking the pieces of paper from them. She looked at them with a serious face. + +"Ben tore my picture, Mom. He was not gentle. He was bad," Lily said, pointing at Ben. + +"Lily was mean to me, Mom. She said my picture was not nice. She was not kind," Ben said, pointing at Lily. + +Mom sighed and shook her head. She hugged them both and said, "I'm sorry, my loves. You both made beautiful pictures, but you did not respect each other. You need to be gentle and kind with your crayons, your paper and your brother or sister. Can you say sorry to each other and share your pictures?" + +Lily and Ben looked at each other and felt sorry. They said sorry and hugged each other. Mom taped their pictures together and hung them on the fridge. They smiled and said, "Thank you, Mom. We love you." +Tom and Anna were twins who lived in a big house with their wealthy parents. They had many toys, clothes and books, but they were not happy. They always wanted more and more, and never shared with anyone. They did not have any friends, because they were mean and selfish. + +One day, they saw a big truck outside their house. It was full of boxes and bags. Their parents told them that they were going to donate some of their old things to a charity that helped poor children. Tom and Anna were angry. They did not want to give away anything. They ran to the truck and started to grab the boxes and bags. They did not care what was inside them. They just wanted to keep them for themselves. + +"Stop! Stop!" their parents shouted. "Those are not yours! They are for the children who have nothing!" + +But Tom and Anna did not listen. They kept pulling and tugging at the boxes and bags. Suddenly, one of the boxes fell from the truck and hit Tom on the head. He fell to the ground and started to cry. Anna was scared. She dropped the bag she was holding and ran to her brother. She saw blood on his forehead. She did not know what to do. + +"Help! Help!" she screamed. "Tom is hurt!" + +A man who was driving by heard her scream. He stopped his car and ran to help. He was a doctor. He took out a first aid kit from his car and cleaned Tom's wound. He put a bandage on it and gave him some medicine. He told Anna to calm down and not to worry. He said Tom would be fine. + +"Thank you, thank you!" Anna said. "You are very kind. You rescued my brother." + +The doctor smiled. He said he was glad to help. He said he was on his way to the charity where Tom and Anna's parents were donating their things. He said he worked there as a volunteer. He said he loved to help poor children who had no toys, clothes or books. He said he did not have much money, but he had a lot of joy. + +Anna looked at the doctor. She looked at the truck. She looked at her brother. She felt ashamed. She realized how wrong she and Tom had been. She realized how lucky they were. She realized how much they had to share. + +She apologized to her parents and to the doctor. She asked them if she and Tom could go with them to the charity. She said she wanted to give some of their things to the poor children. She said she wanted to make them happy. She said she wanted to be their friend. + +Her parents and the doctor were surprised and happy. They agreed to take them to the charity. They helped them to choose some of their things to donate. They used a measure to make sure they gave enough. They loaded them on the truck and drove away. + +Tom and Anna learned a valuable lesson that day. They learned that being wealthy is not about having a lot of things, but about having a lot of love. They learned that being happy is not about getting more and more, but about giving and sharing. They learned that being kind is the best way to make friends. They learned that rescue is not only about saving someone from danger, but also from greed. +Lily and Ben wanted to ride the big wheel at the fair. They had a ticket each that their mom gave them. They ran to the line and waited for their turn. + +"Look, Ben, the big wheel is so high and shiny!" Lily said. "We can see the whole fair from up there!" + +"Yes, Lily, it will be fun!" Ben said. "But we have to be patient. The line is long and the big wheel is slow." + +They waited and waited. They saw other kids get on and off the big wheel. They saw the lights and the music and the smells of the fair. They started to feel bored and tired. + +"Mom, when is our turn?" Lily asked. + +"Soon, sweetie, soon." Mom said. "Just a little more. You are doing great." + +Finally, it was their turn. They gave their tickets to the man and climbed into a big basket. They buckled their belts and held hands. The big wheel started to move. + +"Wow, Lily, look!" Ben said. "We are going up, up, up!" + +Lily looked around and smiled. She saw the fair and the sky and the people. She felt happy and excited. + +"We did it, Ben, we did it!" Lily said. "We rode the big wheel!" + +They laughed and waved and enjoyed their ride. They were glad they were patient. They had a lot of fun. +Sara liked to fly. She had a big red kite that she took to the park. She ran and ran and let the kite go up in the sky. She watched it dance with the wind and the birds. She felt happy and free. + +But Sara was shy. She did not talk to the other kids in the park. She did not like the noise and the crowds. She liked to be alone with her kite. She did not want anyone to take it or break it. + +One day, Sara and her mom had to go to the city. They took the subway. Sara did not like the subway. It was dark and loud and fast. She held her mom's hand and her kite very tight. She wished she could fly away. + +When they got off the subway, Sara saw a big open space. It was a plaza with a fountain and a statue. She saw some kids playing with balloons and bubbles. She wanted to join them, but she was shy. She stayed close to her mom. + +Then, a gust of wind blew her kite out of her hand. She gasped and ran after it. She saw it fly over the fountain and the statue and the kids. She heard them cheer and clap. She felt scared and sad. + +But then, something amazing happened. One of the kids caught her kite and brought it back to her. He smiled and said, "Hi, I'm Ben. That's a cool kite. Do you want to play with us?" Sara looked at him and then at her mom. Her mom nodded and said, "Go ahead, Sara. It's okay. Make some friends." Sara felt shy, but also curious. She smiled and said, "Hi, I'm Sara. Thank you for catching my kite. Yes, I want to play with you." She let go of her mom's hand and followed Ben to the other kids. She felt happy and free. She learned that flying was fun, but so was sharing. +Tom and Mia went to the park with Mom. They saw a big lake with many ducks and swans. Tom and Mia liked to feed them bread and watch them swim. + +"Look, Mom, that swan is so big and white!" Mia said, pointing to one of the birds. + +"Yes, it is very pretty," Mom said. "But be careful, some swans can be mean and bite." + +Tom and Mia nodded and threw some more bread. But then they saw something strange. The big white swan did not move or eat. It just floated on the water, still and quiet. + +"Mom, is that swan sick?" Tom asked, worried. + +Mom looked closer and smiled. "No, Tom, that swan is not sick. It is fake!" + +"Fake?" Mia repeated, confused. + +"Yes, fake. It is not a real swan. It is made of plastic and wood. Someone put it there as a joke or a decoration. It is a surprise!" + +Tom and Mia laughed. They had never seen a fake swan before. They thought it was funny and silly. They wanted to touch it and see how it felt. + +"Can we go closer, Mom?" Tom asked. + +"Sure, but be gentle. And watch out for the real swans. They might not like the fake one," Mom said. + +Tom and Mia ran to the edge of the lake. They reached out their hands and touched the fake swan. It was hard and smooth. It did not feel like feathers or skin. It did not make any sound or move. + +"It is so weird!" Mia said. + +"It is so cool!" Tom said. + +They smiled and looked at each other. They liked the fake swan. It was a fun surprise. +Lily liked to ride the subway with her mom. She liked to see the lights and the people and the big trains. She liked to sit by the window and watch the buildings go by. She liked to stretch her legs and arms and pretend she was a star. + +One day, Lily and her mom got on the subway to go to the park. Lily was happy and excited. She wanted to play on the swings and the slide and the sandbox. She wanted to see the ducks and the flowers and the trees. She wanted to have a fun day with her mom. + +But something bad happened on the subway. The train stopped and the lights went out. Lily heard a loud noise and felt a bump. She saw smoke and fire and glass. She saw people scream and cry and run. She was scared and sad and hurt. She looked for her mom, but she could not find her. She was alone and lost and trapped. + +Lily wished she was not on the subway. She wished she was at the park. She wished she was with her mom. She wished she was a star. She stretched her legs and arms and closed her eyes. She hoped someone would come and help her. But no one came. The end. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and read books. One day, they go to Anna's house. Anna has a big bookshelf with many books. She shows Ben her favorite books. + +"Look, this is a book about animals. Do you like animals, Ben?" Anna asks. + +"Yes, I like animals. Can I see the book?" Ben says. + +Anna gives Ben the book. Ben opens the book and looks at the pictures. He sees a picture of a chubby bear. He likes the chubby bear. He wants to keep the book. + +"Anna, can I have this book? I like the chubby bear. He is cute and funny," Ben says. + +"No, Ben, you can't have this book. This is my book. My mom gave it to me. It is special to me. You have to give it back," Anna says. + +Ben does not want to give back the book. He holds the book tight. Anna tries to take the book from Ben. They pull the book. The book rips. Anna and Ben are sad. They both cry. + +"I'm sorry, Anna. I didn't mean to rip your book. I was selfish. Please forgive me," Ben says. + +"I'm sorry, too, Ben. I was angry. I should have shared my book with you. I forgive you," Anna says. + +They hug each other. They are friends again. They look at the bookshelf. They find another book about animals. They read it together. They are happy. +Tom and Anna were brother and sister. They liked to play on the beach near their house. One day, they saw a big boat on the sea. It was white and shiny and had many windows. + +"Look, Anna, a boat!" Tom said. "Let's go and see it!" + +Anna nodded. She followed Tom as he ran to the water. They did not see their mom, who was sitting on a towel and reading a book. + +The boat was very far, but Tom and Anna did not care. They wanted to touch it and see who was inside. They swam and swam, but the boat did not get closer. It was too fast for them. + +"Tom, I'm tired," Anna said. "Can we go back?" + +Tom shook his head. He wanted to reach the boat. He did not recognize that the sea was getting deeper and darker. He did not hear Anna cry for help. He did not see the big wave that came behind them. + +The wave was very strong. It pushed Tom and Anna under the water. They could not breathe. They could not see. They could not swim. They were scared. + +Their mom looked up from her book. She saw the boat, but she did not see Tom and Anna. She did not recognize that they were gone. She smiled and went back to her book. She did not know that she would never see them again. +Lily and Max were twins who liked to play with stickers. They had a big book of stickers with many different labels. Some labels had animals, some had fruits, some had letters, and some had shapes. + +One day, they wanted to decorate their room with stickers. They opened the book and saw a big label with a rainbow. They both liked the rainbow and wanted to have it. They each pulled on one end of the label, trying to take it for themselves. + +"Let go, it's mine!" Lily said. + +"No, it's mine!" Max said. + +They pulled harder and harder, until the label split in two. They both fell back, holding half of the rainbow. They looked at their pieces and felt sad. The rainbow was not pretty anymore. It was broken and torn. + +They looked at each other and felt sorry. They did not want to fight over the label. They wanted to share and have fun. They hugged and said sorry. + +"Can we fix the label?" Lily asked. + +"Maybe we can. Let's try to stick it together," Max said. + +They got some tape and carefully matched the pieces of the label. They pressed them gently and made the label whole again. They smiled and felt happy. The rainbow was pretty again. They decided to stick it on the wall, where they could both see it. + +They learned that it was better to share and cooperate than to split and fight. They also learned that labels could be fixed, but feelings could be hurt. They were not fearful of losing the label anymore. They were grateful for having each other. +Tom was a tough boy who liked to wander in the woods. He had a spear that he made from a stick and a stone. He wanted to hunt a big animal and show his dad. + +One day, he wandered too far and saw a cave. He heard a growl inside. He thought it was a bear. He wanted to catch the bear with his spear. He crept closer to the cave. + +But it was not a bear. It was a lion. The lion saw Tom and roared. Tom was scared. He threw his spear at the lion, but he missed. The lion jumped at Tom. + +Tom ran away as fast as he could. He dropped his spear. He wished he had not wandered so far. He wished he had listened to his dad. + +He saw his dad coming. His dad had a gun. His dad shot the lion. The lion fell down. Tom was safe. + +Tom hugged his dad. He was sorry he had been foolish. He learned his lesson. He never wandered in the woods again. He was still a tough boy, but he was also a smart boy. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys in the classroom. Lily has a red car. Ben has a blue truck. They share their toys and have fun. + +One day, a new boy comes to the classroom. His name is Sam. He sees Lily's red car and wants to play with it. He asks Lily, "Can I lend your car?" Lily says, "No, this is my car. You can play with something else." Sam is angry. He grabs Lily's car and runs away. + +Lily and Ben chase Sam. They want to get the car back. Sam runs around the classroom. He knocks over books, crayons, and blocks. He makes a big mess. The teacher sees the mess and is not happy. She says, "Who did this?" + +Sam stops running. He feels bad. He knows he did something wrong. He gives Lily's car back to her. He says, "I'm sorry. I should not have taken your car. Can you forgive me?" Lily and Ben are kind. They say, "It's okay. We forgive you. But you have to help us clean up the mess." Sam nods. He says, "Yes, I will help you." They all work together to make the classroom tidy again. The teacher smiles. She says, "Good job, children. You are good friends." +Lily and her mom went to the shop. Lily wanted a new doll. She saw a pretty doll with long hair and a pink dress. She asked her mom, "Can I have this doll, please?" + +Her mom said, "No, Lily, you have too many dolls at home. You don't need another one." + +Lily was sad. She really liked the doll. She had an idea. She took the doll and hid it in her coat. Then she put another doll, a normal doll with short hair and a blue dress, in the box. She hoped her mom would not notice. + +They went to the counter. Her mom paid for the things. She did not see the doll in Lily's coat. Lily was happy. She thought she was clever. + +They went home. Lily ran to her room. She took out the doll and hugged it. She said, "You are my new best friend. I love you." + +But the doll did not say anything. It did not move. It did not smile. It was not a normal doll. It was a broken doll. Someone had replaced its eyes with buttons, its mouth with a zipper, and its arms with wires. It was a scary doll. + +Lily screamed. She threw the doll away. She ran to her mom. She said, "Mom, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I took the doll from the shop, I replaced it with another one, it was a bad thing to do, please forgive me, please help me, the doll is scary, it's broken, it's not normal, I don't want it, I don't want it!" + +Her mom was angry. She was shocked. She said, "Lily, how could you do that? That was very wrong. You stole the doll. You lied to me. You hurt the shop. You hurt yourself. You have to go back to the shop and return the doll. You have to say sorry. You have to pay for it. You have to learn your lesson. You have to be a good girl." + +Lily cried. She was sorry. She was scared. She did not want to go back to the shop. She did not want to see the doll. She did not want to be a bad girl. She wished she had never seen the doll. She wished she had listened to her mom. She wished she had been happy with her normal dolls. +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play together. One day, they found a big bottle of lotion in their mom's bathroom. They were curious about what it was and how it felt. + +"Let's decorate the mirror with the lotion!" Lily said, opening the bottle and squeezing some on her hand. + +"Okay!" Ben said, taking the bottle from her and putting some on his hand too. They ran to the mirror and started to draw pictures and write letters with the lotion. They giggled and made funny faces. + +Soon, the mirror was covered with white lotion. Lily and Ben were proud of their work. They decided to show their mom. + +"Mom, look what we did!" they shouted, running to the living room where their mom was reading a book. + +Their mom looked up and saw them. She was surprised and a little angry. She saw the lotion on their hands, faces and clothes. She also saw the mess they made in the bathroom. + +"Oh, no! What have you done?" she asked, getting up and taking them to the bathroom. "You can't decorate the mirror with lotion! That's for your skin, not for the glass. And look how much you wasted!" + +She took a towel and started to wipe the mirror. She also cleaned their hands, faces and clothes. She explained to them that lotion was expensive and that they should not play with it. She told them to be more careful and respectful of her things. + +Lily and Ben felt sorry for what they did. They apologized to their mom and gave her a hug. They promised to not play with the lotion again. They learned their lesson and went to play with their toys instead. +Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play together in the park. One day, they saw a big red balloon tied to a bench. Lily wanted the balloon very much. She said to Tom, "Look, a balloon! Let's take it and play with it!" + +Tom shook his head. He said, "No, Lily, that is not ours. Someone else left it here. Maybe they will come back for it. We should not take things that are not ours. That is naughty." + +Lily did not listen to Tom. She ran to the bench and grabbed the balloon. She said, "I don't care. I want it. It is so pretty and shiny. Come on, Tom, let's go!" + +Tom felt sad. He did not want to be naughty. He did not want to lose his friend. He said, "Lily, please, give it back. It is not right. You will get in trouble. And I will miss you." + +But Lily did not hear him. She ran away with the balloon. She was happy for a while. She admired the balloon and how it floated in the air. She thought she was very clever. + +But then, a big wind came. It blew the balloon out of Lily's hand. Lily tried to catch it, but it was too late. The balloon flew away, higher and higher, until it was gone. Lily cried. She felt sorry. She wished she had listened to Tom. + +Tom saw what happened. He ran to Lily and gave her a hug. He said, "It's okay, Lily. I'm still your friend. I know you made a mistake. But you can say sorry and learn from it. Maybe next time, you will be good and get a reward." + +Lily nodded. She said, "I'm sorry, Tom. You were right. I was naughty. I will be good next time. Thank you for being my friend. You are very kind and smart. I admire you." + +Tom smiled. He said, "You're welcome, Lily. You are very sweet and fun. I admire you too. Come on, let's go and play something else. Maybe we will find another balloon. But this time, we will ask first." + +Lily and Tom held hands and walked away. They were happy again. They learned a lesson. They were good friends. +Sara liked to play in the kitchen. She liked to look at the dishes and pots and pans. She liked to pretend she was cooking and baking.

She reached for it with her hand. But the dough was not still. It was moving and growing. It was rising. Sara was surprised and scared. She dropped the lid and ran away. She heard a loud noise behind her. The dough had risen so much that it pushed the lid off the dish. It spilled over the edge and onto the floor. + +Sara ran to her mom and told her what happened. Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said, "Don't worry, Sara. That was not a mysterious dish. That was bread dough. I was making bread for lunch. The yeast in the dough makes it rise. It is not scary. It is yummy. Come, let's go and bake it together." Sara felt better. She went with her mom to the kitchen. She helped her mom shape the dough into loaves and put them in the oven. She watched them rise and turn golden. She smelled the delicious bread. She was happy. She learned something new. She liked to play in the kitchen. +Sam liked to play soccer with his friends. He was very good at kicking the ball and scoring goals. One day, his dad took him to a big stadium to watch a soccer game. Sam was very excited to see the players and the fans. + +But when they got to the stadium, Sam saw something that made him very scared. There was a big lion on the field. The lion was roaring and running after the players. The players were running away and screaming. The fans were screaming too. Sam did not like the lion. He wanted to go home. + +Sam's dad tried to calm him down. He told him that the lion was not real. It was a mascot. A mascot was someone who wore a costume to cheer for a team. The lion was just pretending to be scary. It was part of the show. + +But Sam did not believe his dad. He thought the lion was real and dangerous. He started to scream louder and louder. He screamed so loud that everyone in the stadium heard him. He screamed so loud that the lion heard him too. + +The lion turned around and saw Sam. The lion thought that Sam was a cub. The lion liked cubs. The lion wanted to play with Sam. The lion ran towards Sam and jumped over the fence. The lion reached Sam and licked his face. + +Sam was very surprised and very scared. He did not want to play with the lion. He wanted the lion to go away. He pushed the lion and cried. His dad tried to pull him away. The fans tried to help. The players tried to stop the lion. But it was too late. + +The lion bit Sam. Sam felt a lot of pain. He screamed even louder. He screamed until he could not scream anymore. He screamed until he died. + +Sam's dad was very sad and very angry. He blamed the lion and the mascot. He blamed the stadium and the team. He blamed himself and Sam. He wished he never took Sam to the soccer game. He wished he could go back in time and change everything. + +But he could not. Sam was gone. The lion was gone. The game was over. The stadium was silent. Everyone was embarrassed and sorry. Everyone wished they could forget what happened. But they could not. It was a very bad day. It was the worst day ever. +Sara was a little girl who liked to play in the park. She had a red ball that she threw and caught with her friends. One day, she saw a big dog in the park. The dog was black and had long hair. It barked very loud and ran very fast. + +Sara was scared of the big dog. She dropped her red ball and ran to a stand. The stand had fruits and flowers that people sold. Sara hid behind the stand and hoped the big dog would not see her. She trembled and felt cold. + +The big dog saw the red ball and ran to it. It picked up the ball with its mouth and shook it. It looked happy and wagged its tail. It did not see Sara behind the stand. It ran to another part of the park with the ball. + +Sara peeked from behind the stand and saw the big dog was gone. She felt relieved and brave. She came out of the stand and looked for her friends. She saw them near the swings and ran to them. She told them about the big dog and the red ball. They hugged her and said they were glad she was okay. They played together and had fun. Sara was not scared of the big dog anymore. She learned that some big dogs are nice and just want to play. +Ben and Lily were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They liked to make them zoom and crash on the carpet. Ben had a red car and Lily had a silver car. They pretended they were racing each other. + +"Ready, set, go!" Ben yelled and pushed his car forward. Lily did the same with her car. They watched them speed along the floor. Ben's car was faster and reached the other side first. He cheered and lifted his car in the air. + +"I win, I win!" he said. "I have the best car!" + +Lily frowned and picked up her car. She did not like to lose. She thought her car was better. It was shiny and pretty. + +"No, you don't!" she yelled back. "My car is the best! It is silver and sparkly!" + +Ben and Lily started to argue. They both wanted to be right. They both wanted to be successful. They did not listen to each other. They only yelled louder and louder. + +Their mom heard them from the kitchen. She came to the living room and saw them fighting. She was not happy. She told them to stop yelling and to share their toys. She said they could both have fun with their cars. She said they could take turns or race together. + +Ben and Lily looked at their mom. They felt sorry for being noisy and mean. They said sorry to each other and to their mom. They decided to play nicely and to be friends. They hugged and smiled. They learned that yelling was not good and that sharing was better. They had more fun with their cars. They were both successful. +Tom and Anna were friends. They liked to play with toys in the garden. One day, Tom saw a shiny object on the grass. He picked it up and looked at it. It was a ring with a blue stone. + +"Wow, this is pretty!" Tom said. "I want to keep it." + +Anna saw the ring and wanted it too. She ran to Tom and tried to grab it. + +"Give it to me!" Anna said. "It's mine!" + +"No, it's mine!" Tom said. "I found it first!" + +They pulled and pushed and shouted. The ring flew out of their hands and landed in a bush. They ran to the bush and searched for it. + +But they did not see the snake that was hiding there. The snake was angry and scared. It bit Tom on the hand. Tom screamed and fell to the ground. Anna saw the blood and ran away. + +Tom cried and cried. He wanted Anna to help him. He wanted Anna to say sorry. He wanted to forgive Anna. But Anna did not come back. She left him alone with the snake and the ring. Tom felt very bad. He wished he had shared the ring with Anna. He wished he had been a good friend. He wished he had been more careful. But it was too late. The snake had poisoned him. Tom closed his eyes and did not wake up. +Dan and Mia like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make roads and bridges with blocks and books. They zoom their cars on the roads and make loud noises. + +One day, Dan finds a new car in his toy box. It is red and shiny and has a big gear on the back. Dan thinks it is the best car ever. He zooms it on the road and makes it jump over the bridge. He says, "Look, Mia, look at my new car! It is so fast and cool!" + +Mia looks at Dan's car and feels angry. She wants to play with it too. She says, "Let me try your car, Dan. It is not fair that you have it all the time." + +Dan says, "No, Mia, it is my car. You have your own cars. Go play with them." + +Mia says, "No, Dan, you are mean. You have to share. Give me your car now!" + +Dan and Mia start to fight over the car. They pull and tug and shout. The car falls to the floor and breaks. The gear comes off and rolls away. Dan and Mia stop fighting and look at the broken car. They feel sad and sorry. + +They say, "Oh no, what have we done? We broke the car. We are so crazy. We are sorry, car." + +They hug each other and say, "We are sorry, Dan. We are sorry, Mia. We should not fight over toys. We should share and play nicely." + +They look for the gear and fix the car. They take turns to zoom it on the road and make it jump over the bridge. They say, "We love our cars. We love each other. We are happy." +Lily liked to make things with her beads. She had many beads of different colors and shapes. She made necklaces, earrings, and bracelets for herself and her friends. She was very original and creative. + +One day, she wanted to make a bracelet for her mom. She chose some pink and purple beads and a silver string. She put the beads on the string and tied a knot. She was very proud of her bracelet. She ran to show it to her mom. + +"Mom, look what I made for you!" she said, holding up the bracelet. + +"Oh, Lily, it's beautiful!" her mom said, smiling. "Thank you so much. You are very talented." + +She took the bracelet and tried to put it on her wrist. But it was too small. It did not fit. Lily was sad. She wanted her mom to wear her bracelet. + +"Mom, I'm sorry, it's too small," she said, frowning. + +"It's okay, sweetie, don't be sad," her mom said, hugging her. "You know what? You can yield it to me. That means you can let me have it and I can keep it somewhere safe. I can look at it every day and remember how much you love me. And maybe one day, you can make me another bracelet that fits." + +Lily nodded. She liked the idea of yielding her bracelet to her mom. She gave her mom a kiss and said, "I love you, mom. You are the best." + +"I love you too, Lily. You are the best too." +Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her toys and her friends. She had a big sister, Anna, who went to school every day. Lily wanted to go to school too, but her mom said she was too small. + +One day, Anna came home with a big smile and a funny hat. She told Lily that it was her birthday and that she had a party at school. She showed Lily the hat and said, "Look, Lily, this is a funny hat. We made it at school with paper and glue and stickers. Do you like it?" + +Lily nodded and said, "Yes, I like it. It is very funny. Can I have one too?" + +Anna smiled and said, "Sure, you can have one. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will be a good girl and listen to mom and dad. And you have to promise me that you will be brave and happy when you go to school next year. Can you promise me that?" + +Lily thought for a moment and then said, "Yes, I can promise you that. I will be a good girl and listen to mom and dad. And I will be brave and happy when I go to school. I want to learn and make friends and have fun like you." + +Anna hugged Lily and said, "Good, I'm glad you promise me that. You are a smart and sweet sister. Here, you can have my funny hat. Happy birthday, Lily!" + +Lily put on the funny hat and said, "Thank you, Anna. You are a nice and fun sister. Happy birthday to you too!" +Anna and Ben are going to travel with Mom and Dad. They are going to see Grandma and Grandpa in another place. They are very happy and excited. + +They pack their bags and toys and get in the car. Dad drives them to the airport. The airport is a big building with many planes. Planes are big birds that can fly in the sky. + +At the airport, they check in their bags and get their tickets. They go through a gate and wait for their plane. They see many people and hear many noises. Anna and Ben look at the planes and wonder which one is theirs. + +"Look, Anna, that plane is blue and white. Maybe that's our plane!" Ben says. + +"No, Ben, our plane is red and yellow. See, it's over there!" Anna says. + +They point at the planes and giggle. Mom and Dad smile and hug them. + +Soon, a voice says that their plane is ready. They follow Mom and Dad and get on the plane. They find their seats and buckle their belts. They look out the window and see the ground moving. + +The plane makes a loud noise and goes faster and faster. Then, it lifts off the ground and flies in the sky. Anna and Ben clap their hands and cheer. + +They are going to travel and see Grandma and Grandpa. They are very happy and excited. +Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big building with many windows. They wanted to see what was inside. + +"Let's go there," Ben said. "Maybe we can find something fun." + +Lily was not sure. She looked at the building. It was gray and old. It looked boring. + +"I don't know," she said. "It looks scary. And Mom said we should not go too far." + +Ben did not listen. He ran to the building. He opened a door and went in. Lily followed him. She did not want to be alone. + +Inside the building, it was dark and dusty. There were many rooms with broken things. Ben and Lily walked around. They did not find anything fun. They only found spiders and rats. + +"This is not fun," Lily said. "This is bad. Let's go back." + +Ben agreed. He was not happy. He wanted to play in the park. He regretted going to the building. + +They tried to find the door they came in. But they could not. They were lost. They were scared. They cried. + +"Help!" they shouted. "Help us!" + +No one heard them. No one came. They were stuck in the building. They wished they had listened to Mom. They wished they had not gone to the building. They wished they had stayed in the park. +Sara and Ben are playing in the backyard. They have a big ball that they can kick and throw. Sara likes to throw the ball high in the air and catch it. Ben likes to kick the ball hard and run after it. + +"Let me throw the ball, Sara!" Ben says. He wants to take the ball from Sara. + +"No, it's my turn!" Sara says. She holds the ball tight. + +"Please, Sara, please!" Ben says. He tries to take the ball from Sara. + +Sara and Ben start to pull the ball. They both want the ball. They are not happy. + +"Stop, stop!" Mom says. She comes to the backyard. She sees Sara and Ben fighting over the ball. + +"What are you doing, Sara and Ben?" Mom says. She is not happy. + +"Sara won't let me throw the ball!" Ben says. + +"Ben wants to take the ball from me!" Sara says. + +Mom shakes her head. She takes the ball from Sara and Ben. + +"You need to share the ball, Sara and Ben," Mom says. "You can take turns throwing and kicking the ball. Or you can play together and have more fun." + +Sara and Ben look at each other. They feel sorry. + +"Sorry, Sara," Ben says. + +"Sorry, Ben," Sara says. + +Mom smiles. She gives the ball back to Sara and Ben. + +"Here you go, Sara and Ben," Mom says. "Now, play nicely and have fun." + +Sara and Ben nod. They take the ball and go to the backyard. They throw and kick the ball high in the air. They laugh and play together. They are happy. +Lily loves animals. She has a dog, a cat and a fish. She likes to play with them and give them food. One day, she sees a new animal in the park. It is big and brown and has a long nose. Lily thinks it is great. + +"Hello, animal!" Lily says. "What is your name?" + +The animal makes a loud sound. It is an elephant. The elephant is lost. He came from the zoo, but he ran away. He is scared and lonely. + +"I am Lily," Lily says. "Do you want to be my friend?" + +The elephant nods. He likes Lily. She is kind and brave. Lily takes the elephant by the trunk and leads him to her home. She wants to show him her other animals. + +"Look, elephant!" Lily says. "This is my dog, Spot. This is my cat, Fluffy. And this is my fish, Bubbles. They are my friends. You can be their friend, too." + +The elephant is happy. He meets Lily's animals and they play together. He likes Spot, Fluffy and Bubbles. He thinks they are great. + +Lily's mom comes home. She sees the elephant in the yard. She is surprised and scared. + +"Lily, what is this?" she asks. + +"This is my new friend, Mom," Lily says. "He is an elephant. He is great. Can we keep him?" + +Lily's mom smiles. She knows Lily loves animals. She calls the zoo and tells them about the elephant. They come and take the elephant back. They thank Lily for helping him. + +Lily is sad. She hugs the elephant and says goodbye. + +"I will miss you, elephant," she says. "You are a great friend." + +The elephant makes a loud sound. He will miss Lily, too. He is a great friend. +Lily and Tom are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books and a big lamp. The lamp makes the room bright and warm. + +One day, it is very cold outside. The wind blows hard and the snow falls. Lily and Tom cannot go out. They are bored. They want to play with the lamp. + +Lily says, "I want to turn the lamp on and off. It is fun." Tom says, "No, I want to do it. It is my turn." Lily and Tom quarrel. They pull the lamp cord. They shout and cry. + +The lamp cord breaks. The lamp falls. It makes a loud noise. The lamp is broken. The room is dark and icy. + +Lily and Tom are scared. They stop quarreling. They hug each other. They say, "I am sorry. I love you." They call their mom. Mom comes and sees the mess. She is not happy. She says, "You should not quarrel over the lamp. You should share and be kind." She fixes the lamp cord. She turns the lamp on. The room is bright and warm again. + +Lily and Tom learn their lesson. They do not quarrel over the lamp anymore. They play nicely together. They are happy. +Ben and Lily wanted to buy some soil for their garden. They had a big pot and some seeds, but they needed soil to make the seeds grow. They asked their mom to take them to the store. + +At the store, they saw many bags of soil. Some were brown, some were black, some were red. Ben liked the brown soil. He said, "This soil looks good. It is soft and rich. Let's buy this one." Lily liked the red soil. She said, "No, this soil is better. It is bright and pretty. Let's buy this one." + +They started to argue. They pulled and pushed the bags of soil. They made a big mess. Their mom was not happy. She said, "Stop it, both of you. You are making trouble. You can't buy any soil if you don't agree." + +Ben and Lily felt sad. They wanted to buy soil, but they also wanted to make their mom happy. They looked at the bags of soil again. They saw one bag that was pale. It was not brown, not black, not red. It was a mix of all the colors. It looked like a rainbow. + +Ben said, "Look, Lily. This soil is pale. It has all the colors. It is different and nice. Do you like it?" Lily said, "Yes, Ben. I like it. It is pale, but it is also colorful. It is special and fun. Do you like it?" Ben said, "Yes, Lily. I like it. It is pale, but it is also rich. It is good for our seeds. Let's buy it." + +They smiled and hugged. They took the pale soil to their mom. She was happy. She said, "Good job, Ben and Lily. You found a soil that you both like. You solved your problem. You can buy this soil for your garden." + +They paid for the soil and went home. They filled their pot with the pale soil and planted their seeds. They watered them and waited. They hoped to see a rainbow of flowers. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to draw with chalk on the ground. They made shapes and animals and flowers. Lily drew a big circle. Ben drew a small circle inside it. + +"What is that?" Lily asked. + +"It is a surprise," Ben said. "You will see soon." + +Lily was curious. She wanted to know what Ben had in his circle. She tried to peek, but Ben covered it with his hand. + +"No, no, no," he said. "You have to wait." + +Lily waited. She drew more things around her circle. She drew a sun and a cloud and a bird. She was happy. + +Ben finished his circle. He smiled. He took his hand away. + +"Look, Lily," he said. "I made this for you." + +Lily looked. She gasped. Inside Ben's circle, there was a heart. And inside the heart, there was her name. + +"Lily," it said. + +Lily felt warm and happy. She hugged Ben. + +"Thank you, Ben," she said. "You are so generous. You are my best friend." + +Ben hugged her back. + +"You are welcome, Lily," he said. "You are my best friend too." +Tom and Lily are twins. They go to school every day. They wear the same uniform: a blue shirt and a red skirt or pants. They like their uniform. It makes them feel like a team. + +One day, a new boy comes to their class. His name is Sam. He does not wear a uniform. He wears a green shirt and a yellow hat. He looks different from everyone else. + +Tom and Lily are curious. They want to talk to Sam. But Sam does not want to talk to them. He says, "Go away. You are boring. You all look the same. I don't like your uniform." + +Tom and Lily are sad. They don't understand why Sam is so mean. They like their uniform. They think it is nice and neat. They say, "We are not boring. We are lively. We like to play and learn. We don't care what you wear. We want to be your friend." + +Sam does not listen. He turns away and plays with his hat. He does not know how to make friends. He thinks he is better than everyone else. He is lonely and unhappy. + +Tom and Lily feel sorry for Sam. They decide to try again. They go to Sam and say, "We know you are new here. We know it is hard to change schools. We want to help you. We want to show you around. We want to share our toys and books with you. Please, give us a chance." + +Sam looks at Tom and Lily. He sees their kind eyes and their bright smiles. He feels a warm feeling in his chest. He thinks, maybe they are not so bad. Maybe they are lively and fun. Maybe he can be their friend. + +He says, "Okay. I'm sorry I was mean. I don't like my hat anyway. It is too hot. Can I try your uniform?" + +Tom and Lily are happy. They nod and say, "Sure. Let's swap clothes. Then we can all look like a team." + +They help Sam take off his hat and shirt. They give him their uniform. They put on his hat and shirt. They laugh and giggle. They look silly and cute. + +They go to play and learn together. They have a lot of fun. They forget their differences. They become friends. +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to walk in the park and look at the birds and flowers. One day, they see a man with a big camera. He is taking photos of the trees and the sky. + +"Hello, can I take a photo of you two?" the man asks. He is kind and has a big smile. + +"Yes, please!" Lily and Tom say. They stand together and hold hands. The man takes a photo and shows them. They look happy and cute. + +"Thank you, this is a nice photo!" the man says. He gives them a copy of the photo. "You can keep it as a memory of this day." + +"Thank you, mister!" Lily and Tom say. They hug the man and wave goodbye. They walk home with the photo and show it to their moms. They are proud of their photo and their new friend. +Lila and Tom were friends who liked to play outside. They had a big yard with a fence around it. The fence kept them safe from the road and the dogs. Sometimes they would bathe in the pool or run in the sprinklers. They had a lot of fun together. + +One day, Lila and Tom saw a hole in the fence. They were curious and wanted to see what was on the other side. They thought it would be a new adventure. They did not tell their moms or dads. They crawled through the hole and found a big field with flowers and trees. + +"Wow, this is so pretty!" Lila said. "Let's go explore!" + +"Okay, but we have to be back soon," Tom said. "We don't want to get in trouble." + +They ran and jumped and picked some flowers. They saw a pond with frogs and fish. They heard a bird singing. They felt happy and free. + +But then they heard a loud noise. It was a car horn. They looked and saw a road with many cars. They did not know where they were. They did not know how to get back to the fence. They felt scared and lost. + +"Help! Help!" Lila cried. "We need to find our way home!" + +"Shh, don't worry," Tom said. "I'll help you. I'm your friend. I'm dependable." + +He took her hand and tried to remember where they came from. But he could not. He was confused and tired. He wished they never left the yard. He wished they listened to their moms and dads. + +They walked and walked, but they did not see the fence. They saw more cars and dogs and people. They saw signs and lights and noises. They felt alone and sad. + +They did not know that their moms and dads were looking for them. They did not know that they were in danger. They did not know that they would never see their home again. They did not know that this was the end of their story. +Tom and Mia were going to visit their grandma in the big building. They liked to ride the elevator, because it went up and down very fast. They pushed the button and waited for the door to open. + +"Are you ready, Mia?" Tom asked. + +"Yes, Tom, I'm ready. Let's go!" Mia said. + +They stepped inside the elevator and pushed the button for the tenth floor. The elevator started to move up. Tom and Mia felt their tummies tickle. They giggled and looked at the numbers. + +But then, something terrible happened. The elevator stopped in the middle of the way. The lights went off. The elevator made a loud noise. Tom and Mia were scared. + +"Tom, what's happening?" Mia cried. + +"I don't know, Mia. The elevator paused. Maybe it's broken." Tom said. + +They hugged each other and hoped someone would help them. They heard a voice from a speaker. + +"Hello, children. Don't be afraid. We are sorry the elevator paused. There is a problem with the power. We are working to fix it. Please stay calm and wait. We will get you out soon." The voice said. + +Tom and Mia felt a little better. They knew someone was trying to help them. They waited and waited. They sang some songs to pass the time. They hoped to see their grandma soon. They hoped the elevator would start again. +Lily and Ben were twins, but they did not like to share. They each had their own room, their own toys, and their own books. But they always wanted what the other had. + +One day, Lily saw Ben reading a new book. It had a shiny cover and many pictures. Lily was envious. She wanted to read that book too. + +"Ben, can I see your book?" she asked. + +"No, it's mine. Go away," Ben said. + +Lily was angry. She waited until Ben went to the bathroom. Then she sneaked into his room and opened his book. She looked at the pictures and read the words. She liked the book very much. + +But she did not hear Ben coming back. He saw her with his book and shouted. + +"Lily, what are you doing? That's my book! Give it back!" + +He ran to her and tried to grab the book. Lily held on tight. They pulled and pushed and fought over the book. + +They did not see their mom coming in. She saw them fighting and was very upset. + +"Stop it, both of you! You are twins, you should love each other, not fight. Why are you fighting over a book?" + +They both looked at their mom and felt ashamed. They let go of the book and said sorry. + +"It's a new book, mom. I wanted to see it," Lily said. + +"It's my book, mom. I don't want to share it," Ben said. + +Mom sighed. She picked up the book and looked at the cover. It said, "The Twins and the Magic View". + +She smiled and said, "Do you know what this book is about? It's about two twins who find a magic view in their attic. They can see anything they want in the view, but they have to share it. If they don't, the view will disappear. Do you want to read it together?" + +Lily and Ben looked at each other and nodded. They felt curious and sorry. They hugged each other and said, "Yes, mom. We want to read it together." + +Mom smiled and said, "Good. Then let's go to the living room and read it. Maybe you will learn something from the book." + +She opened the book and read the first page. Lily and Ben listened and looked at the pictures. They saw a view of a beautiful garden. They wondered what else they would see in the magic view. They felt happy and excited. They forgot to be envious. +One night, Ben and Lily were in their beds. They heard a strange noise from the closet. It sounded like a boo. They were very scared. They hid under their blankets and held each other. + +"Who is there?" Ben asked in a small voice. + +"Hello, I am a ghost," the voice said. "Can I come out and play with you?" + +Ben and Lily peeked from their blankets. They saw a white shape with two big eyes and a smile. It looked friendly, but they were still scared. + +"No, go away!" Lily said. "You are a ghost. Ghosts are bad." + +The ghost looked sad. "No, I am not bad. I am friendly. I just want to have fun. I am lonely in the closet. Please, let me be your friend." + +Ben and Lily felt sorry for the ghost. They thought maybe he was not so bad after all. They decided to give him a chance. + +"Okay, you can come out," Ben said. "But you have to be nice and quiet. And you have to go back to the closet when we say so." + +The ghost nodded. He came out of the closet and floated to their beds. He was very happy. He played with their toys and told them stories. He made them laugh and forget their fear. He was a friendly ghost. + +They had a lot of fun until their mom came to check on them. She saw the ghost and screamed. She ran out of the room and called their dad. Ben and Lily were shocked. They did not know their mom was scared of ghosts. + +"Quick, go back to the closet!" Ben told the ghost. "Our mom and dad are coming. They will not like you." + +The ghost nodded. He said goodbye to Ben and Lily and thanked them for being his friends. He flew back to the closet and hid. Ben and Lily pretended to be asleep. + +Their mom and dad came in and turned on the light. They looked around and saw nothing. They thought their mom had a bad dream. They kissed Ben and Lily and turned off the light. They left the room. + +Ben and Lily opened their eyes and smiled. They knew their secret friend was still in the closet. They whispered good night to him and fell asleep. They were not scared anymore. They were happy. +Anna loved to pick daisies from the field near her home. She liked to make chains and crowns with them and wear them on her head. She thought they were pretty and smelled good. + +One day, she saw a big bunch of daisies in the field. She ran to them and started to pull them out of the ground. She wanted to own them all and make a big chain. + +But then she heard a voice. It was a little bee. The bee said, "Stop! Stop! Those are my daisies! I need them to make honey. You are hurting them and me!" + +Anna looked at the bee. She saw that he was sad and angry. She also saw that some of the daisies were broken and wilted. She felt sorry for the bee and the daisies. + +She said, "I'm sorry, bee. I didn't know. I thought they were just flowers. I didn't mean to be harsh. Can I give them back to you?" + +The bee said, "Yes, you can. Thank you, Anna. You are kind and smart. You can keep some of the daisies, but please leave some for me and my friends. We can share them and be happy." + +Anna nodded. She gave back some of the daisies to the bee and kept some for herself. She made a small chain and put it on her head. She smiled at the bee and said, "You're welcome, bee. I'm sorry for being harsh. I like to share with you and your friends. You make good honey and you are nice." + +The bee smiled back and said, "Thank you, Anna. I'm sorry for being mad. I like to share with you and your friends. You make pretty chains and you are sweet." + +They became friends and played together in the field. They learned to respect and care for each other and the daisies. They were happy. + +The end. +Lily and Tom were playing in the park with their dolls. They pretended that their dolls were having a tea party. Lily had a pink cup and Tom had a blue cup. They filled their cups with water from the fountain. + +"Here you go, Miss Daisy," Lily said, giving her doll a sip of water. "This is your tea. It is very yummy." + +"Thank you, Miss Lily," Tom said, making his doll talk. "This is your coffee. It is very hot." + +Lily and Tom smiled at each other. They liked playing together. + +But then, a big dog came running towards them. It was black and furry and had a long tongue. It barked loudly and jumped on their blanket. It knocked over their cups and spilled water everywhere. It licked their dolls and made them dirty. + +"Hey, stop that!" Lily shouted, trying to push the dog away. "You are ruining our tea party!" + +"Go away, bad dog!" Tom cried, holding his doll tightly. "You are making our coffee dirty!" + +The dog did not listen. It wagged its tail and barked some more. It thought they were playing with it. + +Lily and Tom were scared and angry. They ran to their mom, who was sitting on a bench nearby. They showed her their wet and dirty dolls. + +"Mom, look what the dog did!" Lily said, with tears in her eyes. "It spoiled our tea party!" + +"Mom, look what the dog did!" Tom said, with a sniffle. "It dirtied our coffee!" + +Mom hugged them and comforted them. She took a tissue and wiped their dolls. She said she was sorry that the dog ruined their fun. She said they could receive new cups and have another tea party later. + +Lily and Tom felt better. They thanked their mom and kissed her. They decided to play something else until their dolls were dry. They hoped the dog would not come back. +Tim and Liz liked to play with their toys in the living room. They had cars, dolls, blocks and books. They also had a big candle on the table. The candle had a flame that was yellow and red. It was warm and bright. + +One day, Tim and Liz were playing with their cars on the floor. They made noises and raced them around. They did not look at the candle. They were careless. Tim's car went too fast and hit the table. The candle shook and fell over. The flame touched the rug. The rug started to burn. + +Tim and Liz saw the fire and got scared. They ran to the door and called for Mom. Mom came and saw the fire. She grabbed a blanket and threw it on the fire. She put out the flame.

It was dirty and broken. They felt bad. They knew they did something wrong. They looked at their mom. She was not smiling anymore. She was angry. + +She said, "What did you do to the bike? Why did you open the box? This was your surprise. I saved money to buy it for you. I wanted you to be happy. But you were not patient. You were not careful. You were not grateful. You ruined the bike. You ruined the surprise." + +Tom and Sue started to cry. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We were curious. We wanted to see the surprise. We wanted to try the bike.

We love you too. We will try to fix. We will try to be good. We will try to wait. We will try to enjoy." + +They followed their mom to the garage. They found some tools, some paint, and some tape.

They were proud of their work. They hugged their mom. They said, "We did it, mom. We fixed the bike. We fixed the surprise. Can we try it now?" + +Their mom smiled. She said, "Yes, you can. But first, let's have some cake. I made it for you. It has candles, sprinkles, and frosting. It is your favorite flavor. It is spicy." + +Tom and Sue gasped. They said, "Spicy? We don't like spicy. We like sweet. Why did you make it spicy?" + +Their mom winked. She said, "It is another surprise. I wanted to teach you another lesson. Sometimes, surprises are not what you expect. Sometimes, they are good. Sometimes, they are bad. Sometimes, they are spicy. You need to be ready for them. You need to be brave. You need to be polite. You need to try them. Maybe you will like them. Maybe you will not. But you will never know until you try. Do you want to try the cake?" + +Tom and Sue looked at the cake. It looked yummy. But it smelled spicy. They were not sure. They looked at their mom. She looked kind. But she looked tricky. They were not sure. They looked at each other. They shrugged. They said, "OK, mom. We will try the cake.

They could go back to the living room. Lily and Max were happy to hear that. They followed their mom upstairs, holding their toy cars. + +They saw that the tornado had made a big mess outside.

"The tornado released a rainbow!" + +Lily and Max smiled. They thought the rainbow was pretty and bright. They hoped it was a sign of good things to come. They thanked their mom for keeping them safe. They went back to playing with their toy cars, but they also looked at the rainbow. They thought it was cool. +Lily was a child who liked to talk.

She ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. She did not hear her mom say, "Lily, wait for me. The slide is too high for you." + +Lily reached the top of the slide and looked down. She felt scared. The slide was very high and steep. She wanted to go back, but there were other children behind her. They were waiting for their turn. They said, "Hurry up, Lily.

You are very good at chess." + +"Thank you, Ben," Anna says. She smiles. She removes her white queen from the board. She gives it to Ben. "You are very good too.

Lily told her about the house, the kitten, and the dog. Her mom said, "That sounds like a very exciting adventure. But you know, you don't need to be wealthy to be happy. You have everything you need right here. You have me, you have Fluffy, and you have your imagination. And that's more precious than anything." Lily nodded and smiled. She agreed with her mom.

They say, "Sorry, Mom, we will eat the food. We will be good." + +Mom smiles and says, "Thank you, kids, for listening to me. I love you. Now, let's eat and enjoy the food. And maybe, if you finish your plates, you can have some dessert." +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and their dog, Spot. One day, they decide to feed Spot with a teaspoon. They think it is a fun game. + +They find a big bowl of dog food in the kitchen. They take a teaspoon each and scoop some food. They walk to the living room, where Spot is sleeping on the rug. They say, "Spot, Spot, wake up! We have a surprise for you!" + +Spot opens his eyes and sees Lily and Ben. He wags his tail and jumps up. He sniffs the food on the spoons. He licks one spoon and then the other. He likes the food, but he is still hungry. He looks at the bowl in the kitchen. + +Lily and Ben giggle. They run back to the kitchen and get more food. They feed Spot again and again. They are cheerful and proud. They think they are helping Spot. + +But soon, the bowl is empty. Spot has eaten all the food. He feels full and sleepy. He burps and lies down on the rug. He closes his eyes and dreams of bones. + +Lily and Ben look at the bowl and the spoons. They see that they have made a mess. They feel sorry and scared. They wonder what Mom and Dad will say. + +They hear the door open. Mom and Dad are home. They see Lily and Ben and Spot and the bowl and the spoons. They are surprised and angry. They say, "Lily and Ben, what have you done? You have fed Spot too much! You have wasted the food! You have made a mess! You are in trouble!" + +Lily and Ben start to cry. They hug Spot and say, "We are sorry, Mom and Dad. We wanted to feed Spot with a teaspoon. We thought it was a fun game. We love Spot. Please don't be mad at us!" + +Mom and Dad sigh. They see that Lily and Ben are sorry and love Spot. They are not mad anymore. They say, "Lily and Ben, we love you too. But you have to be careful and responsible. You have to ask us before you feed Spot. You have to use the right amount of food. You have to clean up after yourselves. Do you understand?" + +Lily and Ben nod. They say, "We understand, Mom and Dad. We will be careful and responsible. We will ask you before we feed Spot. We will use the right amount of food. We will clean up after ourselves. We are sorry, Mom and Dad." + +Mom and Dad smile. They hug Lily and Ben and Spot. They say, "It's okay, Lily and Ben. We forgive you. You are good kids. You have learned your lesson. Now, let's go to the kitchen and have some cookies. And don't forget to wash your spoons!" +Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to water the flowers with the hose. Lily was careful with the hose. She did not want to hurt the flowers or make a mess. Ben was careless with the hose. He liked to spray the water everywhere. He did not care about the flowers or the mess. + +One day, Ben saw a big spider on the fence. He was scared of spiders. He wanted to spray the spider with the hose. He grabbed the hose from Lily and aimed at the spider. But he did not see that the hose was tangled on a branch. When he pulled the hose, the branch snapped and hit him on the head. Ben cried out in pain and dropped the hose. + +Lily saw what happened. She was not scared of spiders. She wanted to help Ben. She ran to him and hugged him. She said, "It's okay, Ben. I'm here. I support you." She picked up the hose and sprayed the spider away. She said, "The spider is gone. You are safe." She helped Ben to the house and got a band-aid for his head. + +Ben said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister. I'm sorry I was careless with the hose. I will be more careful next time." Lily said, "You're welcome, Ben. I love you. We can play with the hose again tomorrow. But let's be nice to the flowers and the spiders." They hugged and smiled. +Lily and Max were playing hide and seek in the house. Lily was the seeker and Max was the hider. Lily counted to ten and then looked for Max. She checked the living room, the kitchen, the bathroom, but she could not find him. She was getting impatient. Where was Max? + +She heard a noise from the basement. Maybe Max was hiding there. She opened the door and went down the stairs. It was dark and cold in the basement. She saw a big pile of laundry on the floor. She thought Max might be under it. She walked towards the laundry and said, "I found you, Max!" + +But as she reached the laundry, something jumped out and yelled, "Boo!" Lily screamed and ran back to the stairs. It was not Max, it was a cat. The cat had been sleeping on the laundry and Lily had scared it. The cat had scared Lily back. + +Max heard Lily scream and came out of his hiding spot. He had been hiding in the closet. He ran to the basement and saw Lily crying on the stairs. He also saw the cat running away. He felt sorry for Lily and hugged her. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't know there was a cat in the basement. Are you okay?" + +Lily nodded and wiped her tears. She said, "I'm okay, Max. But that cat scared me a lot. Let's not play hide and seek in the basement anymore." + +Max agreed and they went back to the living room. They decided to play something else. They were still friends. +Lena and Tom are playing in the kitchen. They see a big bowl of onions on the table. Lena likes onions. She picks one up and smells it. It makes her eyes water. + +"Look, Tom, I have an onion!" she says. + +Tom does not like onions. He makes a face and says, "Yuck, onions are bad. They make you cry. Give it to me, I will pass it to Mom." + +He takes the onion from Lena and throws it to Mom, who is cooking on the stove. Mom is not ready for the onion. She is busy stirring a pot of soup. The onion flies over her head and lands on the floor. + +"Oops, sorry, Mom!" Tom says. + +Mom turns around and sees the onion. She is not angry, but she is surprised. She laughs and says, "What a lively onion! Thank you, Tom, but next time, please ask me before you pass me anything. And be careful, you might hurt someone or yourself." + +She picks up the onion and puts it back in the bowl. She gives Tom and Lena a hug and says, "Why don't you help me with the soup? You can wash the carrots and the celery. They are good for you and they don't make you cry." + +Tom and Lena nod and smile. They like carrots and celery. They wash them and chop them with a plastic knife. They help Mom make the soup. They are happy and proud. They have fun in the kitchen. +Here is one possible story, but there are many other ways to write it. + +Mia liked to play with water. She liked to splash and pour and make bubbles. One day, she saw a big faucet in the garden. It was shiny and had a red handle. Mia wanted to get water from the faucet. She ran to it and tried to turn the handle. But it was too hard. She pushed and pulled, but nothing happened. + +Mia was sad and angry. She started to cry and kick the faucet. She did not see the hose that was connected to the faucet. She did not see the dog that was sleeping near the hose. She did not hear her mom calling her name. + +Suddenly, the hose moved. It made a loud noise and sprayed water everywhere. Mia was wet and scared. She screamed and ran away. The dog was wet and awake. He barked and chased Mia. Mia's mom saw what happened. She ran to Mia and the dog. She turned off the faucet and picked up Mia. She hugged her and said, "Calm down, calm down. It's okay. It was just a hose. The dog is friendly. He just wanted to play." + +Mia stopped crying and looked at the dog. He was wagging his tail and licking his fur. He looked funny and cute. Mia smiled and said, "Sorry, dog. I did not mean to wake you up. Do you want to play with me?" The dog nodded and licked Mia's face. Mia giggled and said, "Mom, can we get a dog like this?" Mia's mom smiled and said, "Maybe, Mia. Maybe." +Sara and Tom were outside at night. They liked to look at the stars and the moon. Sometimes they saw other things in the sky, like planes or birds. But tonight they saw something very special. + +"Look, look!" Sara said, pointing up. "What is that?" + +Tom looked where Sara was pointing. He saw a bright light with a long tail. It was moving fast across the sky. He had never seen anything like it before. + +"It's a comet!" Tom said. "A comet is a big rock that flies in space. Sometimes it comes close to the earth and we can see it. It's very rare and beautiful." + +Sara and Tom watched the comet as it cut through the dark sky. They felt happy and amazed. They wished they could fly with the comet and see what it saw. + +The comet faded away after a few minutes. Sara and Tom felt a little sad, but also peaceful. They had seen something wonderful together. They hugged and smiled. + +"Maybe we will see another comet someday," Sara said. + +"Maybe," Tom said. "But even if we don't, we will always remember this one." +Lily and Ben were playing in the living room with their toys. They had a lot of fun making noises and building towers. But they also made a big mess. Toys were everywhere on the floor, on the couch, on the table. + +Mom came in and saw the mess. She was not happy. She said to Lily and Ben, "Look at this mess! You need to tidy up your toys. It is almost time for dinner." + +Lily and Ben did not want to tidy up. They wanted to keep playing. Ben said, "But Mom, we are having fun. Can we tidy up later?" + +Mom shook her head. She said, "No, you need to tidy up now. If you leave your toys like this, someone might trip and get hurt. Or you might lose your toys. Or they might get dirty or broken. Do you want that?" + +Lily and Ben did not want that. They liked their toys. They did not want them to get hurt or lost or dirty or broken. Mom explained why it was important to tidy up. Lily and Ben understood. + +They said, "Okay, Mom. We will tidy up. Can you help us?" + +Mom smiled. She said, "Of course I will help you. But first, you need to put on your sweaters. It is getting cold outside. You don't want to catch a cold, do you?" + +Lily and Ben did not want to catch a cold. They ran to their rooms and got their sweaters. They put them on and came back to the living room. They helped Mom tidy up their toys. They put them in their boxes and baskets and shelves. They made the living room look nice and neat. + +Mom was proud of Lily and Ben. She said, "Well done, Lily and Ben. You did a great job. Now you can have dinner. And after dinner, you can have some dessert. How does that sound?" + +Lily and Ben were happy. They said, "That sounds great, Mom. Thank you for explaining. And thank you for helping. We love you, Mom." + +Mom hugged Lily and Ben. She said, "I love you too, Lily and Ben. You are my good and tidy children." +Lily was in her crib, but she did not want to sleep. She wanted to play with her toys and her big sister, Anna. She looked at the moon and the stars outside her window and imagined that they were her friends. She smiled and waved at them. + +"Hello, moon. Hello, stars. Do you want to play with me?" she asked. + +The moon and the stars did not answer, but they twinkled brightly. Lily thought they were saying yes. She imagined that she could fly out of her crib and join them in the sky. She pretended that she had wings and a magic wand. She flew around the moon and sprinkled star dust on the stars. She felt happy and free. + +But then she heard a noise. It was Anna, who came to check on her. Anna was older and knew how to read and write. She was very smart and kind. She saw Lily awake and alert in her crib. + +"Lily, what are you doing? It's time to sleep. You have to rest for tomorrow. We have a lot of fun things to do," Anna said. + +Lily looked at Anna and then at the moon and the stars. She wanted to stay with them, but she also loved her sister. She decided to listen to Anna. She flew back to her crib and put down her wand. She snuggled under her blanket and hugged her teddy bear. + +"Good night, moon. Good night, stars. Thank you for playing with me. I'll see you again tomorrow," she said. + +"Good night, Lily. I love you. Sweet dreams," Anna said. + +She kissed Lily on the forehead and turned off the light. She left the door slightly open, so Lily could still see the moon and the stars. Lily closed her eyes and fell asleep, dreaming of her sky friends. +Sam and Lily are playing in the yard. They have a big ball and a hoop. They take turns to throw the ball into the hoop. Sam is good at throwing. Lily is good at catching. + +"Wow, you are so good, Sam!" Lily says. "You make the ball go in every time!" + +"Thank you, Lily!" Sam says. "You are so good, too! You catch the ball even when it bounces!" + +They are having fun. They laugh and clap. + +But then, a big dog comes into the yard. It is not their dog. It is a stranger dog. It is black and brown and has sharp teeth. It sees the ball and runs towards it. It grabs the ball with its mouth and shakes it hard. + +"Hey, that's our ball!" Sam yells. "Give it back, dog!" + +But the dog does not listen. It runs away with the ball. Sam and Lily chase after it. They yell and wave their arms. + +"Stop, dog! Stop!" Lily yells. "That's not your ball!" + +But the dog is faster than them. It jumps over the fence and disappears. + +Sam and Lily are sad. They lost their ball. They go back to the yard. They sit on the grass and sigh. + +"What are we going to do now?" Sam asks. "We have no ball to play with." + +Lily thinks for a moment. She has an idea. + +"We can play something else!" she says. "We can play tag! You are it!" + +She taps Sam on the shoulder and runs away. Sam smiles. He gets up and runs after her. + +"Wait for me, Lily!" he says. "I'm going to catch you!" + +They are playing again. They are flexible. They can have fun with or without a ball. They forget about the dog and the ball. They laugh and run. +Ben and Lily are playing with their toys in the living room. Ben has a red car and Lily has a blue case. The case has many stickers and a zipper. Lily likes to open and close the case and put things inside. + +"Can I see your case, Lily?" Ben asks. He wants to play with the zipper. + +"OK, but be careful. Don't lose it," Lily says. She gives the case to Ben and takes his car. + +Ben opens the case and sees a yellow ball, a green frog and a pink doll. He takes out the ball and throws it in the air. He catches it and laughs. + +Lily drives the car on the floor and makes noises. She pretends the car is very fast and goes to many places. + +Ben gets bored with the ball and puts it back in the case. He takes out the frog and makes it hop on the couch. He forgets about the case and leaves it on the floor. + +Lily sees the case and gets angry. She wants her case back. She stops playing with the car and grabs the case from the floor. + +"Hey, that's mine!" Ben says. He tries to take the case from Lily. + +"No, it's mine! You lost it!" Lily says. She holds the case tight and runs away. + +Ben chases Lily around the living room. They both yell and cry. They are nervous and scared. + +Mom hears the noise and comes to the living room. She sees Ben and Lily fighting over the case. She is not happy. + +"Stop, stop, stop!" Mom says. She takes the case from Lily and the car from Ben. She puts them on the table. + +"Ben, Lily, what is going on? Why are you fighting?" Mom asks. + +"Ben lost my case! He took out my things and left it on the floor!" Lily says. + +"Lily took my car! She didn't let me see her case!" Ben says. + +Mom sighs and shakes her head. She sits down on the couch and calls Ben and Lily to join her. + +"Listen, Ben and Lily, you are brother and sister. You need to share and be nice to each other. You can't lose or take things that are not yours. You can't fight or yell or cry. You need to say sorry and hug and make up. Do you understand?" Mom says. + +Ben and Lily nod and look down. They feel sorry and sad. + +"Ben, say sorry to Lily for losing her case," Mom says. + +"Sorry, Lily," Ben says. + +"Lily, say sorry to Ben for taking his car," Mom says. + +"Sorry, Ben," Lily says. + +Mom smiles and gives them both a hug. + +"Good. Now, you can play with your toys again, but only if you promise to share and be careful. OK?" Mom says. + +"OK, Mom," Ben and Lily say. + +Mom gives them back their toys and watches them play. They are happy and calm. They don't lose or take things anymore. They share and be nice to each other. They are not nervous or scared. They are friends. +Anna and Ben are adventurous children. They like to explore new places and have fun. One day, they find a big automobile in the garage. It is old and dusty, but it has many buttons and wheels. + +"Let's pretend we are driving to the moon!" Anna says. + +"OK, but we need helmets and suits!" Ben says. + +They look around and find some hats and coats. They put them on and climb into the automobile. They turn the keys and hear a loud noise. + +"Vroom, vroom!" Anna says. + +"Beep, beep!" Ben says. + +They move the wheels and press the buttons. They imagine they are flying through the sky and seeing stars and planets. They laugh and giggle as they play. + +Suddenly, they hear a voice. + +"Hey, what are you doing in my car?" It is their grandpa. He is surprised and angry. + +Anna and Ben are scared. They jump out of the automobile and run to him. + +"Sorry, grandpa, we were just playing!" Anna says. + +"We wanted to go to the moon!" Ben says. + +Grandpa looks at them and sees their hats and coats. He shakes his head and smiles. + +"You are very adventurous, but you should not touch my car without asking. It is old and dangerous. Come, I will show you something better." + +He takes them to the backyard and shows them a big telescope. He lets them look at the moon and the stars. He tells them stories and facts about space. Anna and Ben are amazed and happy. They forget about the automobile and enjoy the telescope. They hug their grandpa and thank him. + +"Grandpa, you are the best!" Anna says. + +"You are so smart and kind!" Ben says. + +Grandpa laughs and hugs them back. + +"You are my favorite adventurers!" he says. +Lila and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a big skull in the backyard. It was white and hard and had many teeth. They wondered where it came from and what animal it belonged to. + +"Let's sell it!" said Lila. "We can get a lot of money and buy more toys!" + +"No, let's keep it!" said Ben. "It is cool and scary and we can scare our friends!" + +They started to argue and pull the skull from each other. They both wanted the skull for themselves and were envious of the other. + +Suddenly, they heard a loud roar from behind the fence. They turned around and saw a huge lion with a mane and claws. It looked angry and hungry and it wanted its skull back. + +"Help!" they screamed and dropped the skull. They ran inside the house and locked the door. They hugged each other and felt sorry for being mean and greedy. + +They learned their lesson and decided to share their toys and not sell or keep things that did not belong to them. They also hoped that the lion would not come back and that it would find a new skull to play with. +Lily liked to follow her big sister everywhere. She wanted to do everything that her big sister did. She wanted to wear the same clothes, play with the same toys, and read the same books. + +One day, her big sister was going to a dance class. Lily wanted to go too. She put on a pink dress and a pair of shoes. She ran after her big sister and grabbed her waist. + +"Can I come with you?" Lily asked. + +"No, Lily, you are too little. You have to stay home with Mommy. Dance class is for big girls only." Her big sister said. + +"But I want to dance too. I can dance like you. Look!" Lily said. She twirled and jumped and spun around. + +Her big sister smiled. She had to admit that Lily was very impressive. She was cute and funny and brave. + +"Okay, Lily, you can come with me. But you have to listen to the teacher and do what she says. And you have to be quiet and polite. Can you do that?" Her big sister said. + +"Yes, yes, yes!" Lily said. She hugged her big sister and thanked her. + +They went to the dance class together. Lily followed her big sister and tried to copy her moves. She had a lot of fun and made some new friends. Her big sister was proud of her and gave her a high five. + +They both loved to dance and to follow their dreams. +Anna liked to play with her toy train. She had a long rail that she put on the floor. She put the train on the rail and pushed it. The train made a noise like "choo choo". Anna liked the noise. She said "choo choo" too. She repeated the noise every time the train moved. + +One day, Anna's baby brother came to her room. He saw the train and the rail. He wanted to play too. He crawled to the rail and grabbed it. He pulled the rail and broke it. The train fell off the rail and stopped. Anna was sad and angry. She said "no no" to her brother. She repeated "no no" very loud. + +Anna's mom heard the noise. She came to the room and saw what happened. She picked up the baby and hugged him. She said "sorry" to Anna. She repeated "sorry" and smiled. She fixed the rail and put the train back on it. She gave the train to Anna and said "play". She repeated "play" and winked. + +Anna felt better. She took the train and pushed it. The train made the noise like "choo choo" again. Anna said "choo choo" too. She repeated the noise and smiled. She looked at her mom and her brother. They looked at her and smiled too. Anna felt happy. She said "thank you" to her mom. She repeated "thank you" and hugged her. The room was peaceful. +One day, Ben and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Ben had a toy car and Lily had a toy doll. + +"Look, my car can go fast!" Ben said, zooming his car on the floor. + +"My doll can talk!" Lily said, pressing a button on her doll's back. The doll said, "I love you!" + +Ben and Lily smiled at each other. They liked their toys very much. + +But then, something strange happened. Lily's doll started to make a hissing sound. Lily looked at her doll and saw a drop of water coming out of its mouth. + +"Oh no, my doll has a leak!" Lily cried. + +Ben came closer and saw the water too. He was confused. He did not know why the doll was leaking. + +"Maybe it is thirsty," he said. "Let's give it some juice." + +Lily nodded. She ran to the kitchen and got a cup of juice. She came back and poured some juice into the doll's mouth. + +But the doll did not stop leaking. Instead, it leaked more and more. The juice came out of its eyes, nose, ears, and belly. + +"Stop, stop, stop!" Lily shouted. "You are making it worse!" + +Ben was scared. He did not want the doll to leak all over the floor. He grabbed the doll and tried to squeeze it. He hoped that would make the leak stop. + +But it did not. The doll leaked even more. And it also made a loud squeak. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" the doll said. "You are pinching me!" + +Ben and Lily dropped the doll. They were shocked. The doll sounded like it was in pain. + +They looked at each other. They did not know what to do. + +They heard a voice from the other room. + +"What is going on in here?" It was their mom. She came into the living room and saw the mess. + +She saw the doll, the juice, and the water. She saw Ben and Lily's faces. They were confused and sorry. + +She sighed. She picked up the doll and looked at it. + +"I told you not to play with this doll," she said. "It is broken. It has a battery inside that is leaking. That is why it is wet and noisy. It is not safe to play with." + +She took the doll away and threw it in the trash. She got a towel and cleaned the floor. She hugged Ben and Lily. + +"It's okay," she said. "You did not know. But next time, listen to me when I tell you something. And be careful with your toys. They are not alive. They cannot drink or feel." + +Ben and Lily nodded. They felt bad for the doll. They did not mean to hurt it. + +They said sorry to their mom. They said they would listen to her. They said they would be careful. + +They hugged their mom back. They loved her. + +They went back to their toys. They played with them gently. They did not pinch them or give them juice. + +They had fun. They were happy. +Lila and Sam were two monkeys who lived in the jungle. They liked to play and swing on the vines, but they also liked to win. They were very competitive and always tried to be the best at everything. + +One day, they decided to have a race to see who could reach the big banana tree first. They started from the same spot and ran as fast as they could. Lila was a little bit faster than Sam, but Sam did not want to lose. He saw a branch on the ground and picked it up. He threw it at Lila, hoping to make her fall. + +But the branch missed Lila and hit a big snake instead. The snake was angry and hissed loudly. It chased after Sam, who was scared and ran away. Lila saw what happened and stopped running. She felt sorry for Sam and wanted to help him. + +She grabbed a vine and swung over to the snake. She shouted, "Hey, snake, leave Sam alone! He is sorry for what he did. He did not mean to hurt you. He was just playing a game." + +The snake looked at Lila and said, "A game? That was not a nice game. That was a mean game. He could have hurt me or you. He should not throw things at others. That is not fair or fun." + +Lila nodded and said, "You are right, snake. That was not a good game. Sam was wrong to do that. He should say sorry to you and to me. He should learn to play nicely and not be so competitive." + +The snake agreed and said, "If he says sorry and promises to be nicer, I will let him go. But if he does it again, I will punish him. Do you understand, Sam?" + +Sam, who was hiding behind a tree, nodded and said, "Yes, snake, I understand. I am sorry for throwing the branch at you and at Lila. I was silly and rude. I will not do it again. I will be a good friend and play fairly." + +The snake accepted Sam's apology and slithered away. Lila and Sam hugged and thanked each other. They learned their lesson and decided to share the bananas instead of racing for them. They realized that playing together was more fun than competing against each other. They were happy and so was the snake. +Sam and Mia were playing in the park. They saw a big drum near the slide. They ran to the drum and took turns to hit it with sticks. The drum made loud noises. Sam and Mia liked the noises. + +"Boom, boom, boom!" Sam said. "I am a drummer!" + +"Me too!" Mia said. "I am a drummer too!" + +They hit the drum faster and faster. They laughed and smiled. + +But then, a man came out of a small house next to the drum. He looked angry. He had a dirty face and a smelly coat. He shouted at Sam and Mia. + +"Hey, you kids! Stop hitting my drum! That is not a toy! That is my home!" + +Sam and Mia were scared. They dropped their sticks and ran away. They did not know that the drum was the man's home. They thought it was a toy. + +As they ran, they saw a big trash can. It was full of rotten food and dirty papers. It smelled disgusting. Sam and Mia felt sick. + +"Yuck!" Sam said. "What is that?" + +"That is trash!" Mia said. "That is where people throw away things they do not want!" + +Sam and Mia leaned over the trash can. They wanted to see what was inside. But they leaned too much. They lost their balance and fell into the trash can. They were covered in trash. They cried and screamed. + +"Help! Help!" Sam said. "We are in the trash!" + +"Help! Help!" Mia said. "We are in the trash too!" + +The man heard their cries. He came to the trash can. He saw Sam and Mia in the trash. He felt sorry for them. He helped them out of the trash can. He gave them a rag to wipe their faces. + +"I am sorry I shouted at you," the man said. "I did not mean to scare you. But you should not hit my drum. That is my home. I sleep in there. I have nothing else." + +Sam and Mia were sorry too. They did not mean to hit his home. They thought it was a toy. They apologized to the man. + +"We are sorry we hit your drum," Sam said. "We did not know it was your home. We thought it was a toy." + +"We are sorry we hit your drum too," Mia said. "We did not know it was your home. We thought it was a toy too." + +The man smiled. He forgave them. He offered them a cookie. He had a few cookies in his pocket. He shared them with Sam and Mia. + +"Here, have a cookie," the man said. "They are not much, but they are sweet. They make me happy." + +Sam and Mia took a cookie. They thanked the man. They ate the cookie. It was sweet. It made them happy too. + +They became friends with the man. They learned his name was Bob. They learned his story. He had no family. He had no job. He had no money. He lived in the drum. He was lonely. + +Sam and Mia felt sad for Bob. They wanted to help him. They wanted to make him happy. They invited him to play with them. They gave him a hug. They told him they liked him. + +"Bob, you can play with us," Sam said. "We have toys. We have fun." + +"Bob, you can play with us too," Mia said. "We have friends. We have love." + +Bob was touched. He accepted their invitation. He played with them. He had fun. He had friends. He had love. He was happy. + +The end. +Sara and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the park and make up stories. One day, they decided to pretend they were on an island. They found a big sandbox and some sticks and stones. They used them to make a hut and a fire. + +"This is our island," Sara said. "It is perfect. We have everything we need." + +Tom nodded. He saw a red bucket and a blue shovel near the sandbox. They belonged to another kid who was playing on the swings. Tom wanted to use them to dig a hole and find treasure. + +"Can we borrow those?" he asked Sara, pointing to the bucket and shovel. + +Sara looked at them and then at the kid on the swings. She shook her head. + +"No, we can't," she said. "They are not ours. We have to ask first." + +Tom frowned. He really wanted to dig a hole. He thought the kid on the swings would not mind. He ran to the bucket and shovel and grabbed them. He brought them back to the sandbox. + +"Look, I borrowed them," he said. "Now we can dig a hole." + +Sara was not happy. She knew that was not right. She heard the kid on the swings cry out. + +"Hey, that's mine!" the kid shouted. He ran to the sandbox and tried to take back his bucket and shovel. Tom did not want to give them back. He held them tight and said they were his now. + +Sara saw the kid was sad and angry. She felt sorry for him. She also felt angry at Tom. She did not like how he acted. She took the bucket and shovel from Tom and gave them back to the kid. + +"I'm sorry," she said. "He should not have taken them. He did not ask you." + +The kid smiled and thanked her. He said he would share his bucket and shovel with her if she wanted. Sara nodded and smiled back. She said she would like that. + +She looked at Tom and said, "You were not nice. You did not borrow them. You stole them. That is bad. You have to say sorry." + +Tom felt ashamed. He knew he was wrong. He did not mean to hurt the kid or make Sara mad. He wanted to be a good friend. He looked at the kid and said, "I'm sorry. I should have asked you. Can we be friends?" + +The kid nodded and said, "It's okay. We can be friends. Do you want to play with us?" + +Tom nodded and said, "Yes, please.

You can decorate my room with me. I have many things you might like." The owl hoo-hooed again and nodded. Jill was very happy and hugged the owl. + +She brought the owl inside and showed it her things. The owl liked the pine cones and the shells. It pecked at them and moved them around. Jill and the owl decorated her room together. They made a nest of feathers and pine cones on her bed. They hung shells on her lamp. They put rocks on her dresser. + +Jill and the owl had fun and became good friends. They snuggled in the nest and fell asleep. Jill dreamed of flying with the owl in the night sky. The owl dreamed of finding more things to decorate with Jill. They were different, but they liked each other. +Lily and Ben were playing in the yard. They liked to dig in the dirt and make mud pies. They saw some ash on the ground. It was black and soft. They wondered where it came from. + +They looked up and saw smoke in the sky. It was coming from the big hill. The big hill was a volcano. It was angry and spitting fire and rocks. Lily and Ben were scared. They ran to their mom. + +Mom was in the house. She was alert. She heard the noise and saw the smoke.

They live in a small town with many trees and flowers. One day, they go to the park to play. They see a big dog with brown fur and a long tail. The dog looks hungry and sad. + +"Hello, dog. Do you want to play with us?" Sara asks. She likes animals and wants to help the dog. + +But the dog does not want to play. He growls and shows his teeth. He is angry and scared. He thinks Sara and Ben want to hurt him. + +"Go away, dog. You are not nice. You are mean," Ben says. He is afraid of the dog. He holds Sara's hand and tries to run away. + +But the dog is faster. He runs after Sara and Ben. He tries to bite them. He wants to eat them. + +"Help, help!" Sara and Ben scream. They need someone to save them. + +A man hears their screams. He is a policeman.

You have to sleep. You need to rest and grow. Maybe you can play tomorrow," Mommy said. + +Mommy turned off the light and left the room. Tommy was still grumpy. He did not like the dark. He did not like the quiet. He did not like his blanket. He threw it off the bed. He got up and went to the door. He wanted to go to Mommy. + +But then he heard a noise. It was a loud and scary noise. It sounded like a monster. It was coming from under his bed. Tommy was afraid. He ran back to his bed. He grabbed his blanket and covered himself. He hoped the monster would not see him. + +"Roar! I am the monster under your bed. I am hungry. I want to eat you," the noise said. + +Tommy was very afraid. He did not know what to do. He wished Mommy was here. He wished he was not grumpy. He wished he had listened to Mommy. + +But then he had an idea. He decided to act brave. He decided to act like a superhero.

I have a super blanket. It can make you disappear. It can make you be quiet. It can make you be nice," Tommy said. + +He took his blanket and threw it over the noise. He pressed it down hard. He did not let go. + +The noise tried to get out. It tried to roar. It tried to bite. But it could not. The blanket was too strong. The blanket was too soft. The blanket was too nice. + +The noise gave up. It stopped moving. It stopped roaring. It stopped biting. It became quiet. It became nice. + +"Please, let me go. I am sorry. I am not a monster. I am a toy. I am your toy. I was only acting. I was only playing. I did not mean to scare you," the noise said. + +Tommy was surprised. He lifted his blanket. He saw his toy. It was his toy lion.

He felt happy. + +He hugged his toy lion. He said sorry to it. He said he loved it. + +He got back into his bed. He tucked himself in with his blanket and his toy lion. He was not grumpy anymore.

One day, they saw a big pile of dirt. They wanted to make a castle with it. + +"Let's work on the castle," Lily said. "It will be fun." + +"OK," Tom said. "But we have to be careful. The dirt is filthy. We don't want to get sick." + +They started to work on the castle. They used sticks and stones and leaves to decorate it. They were happy. + +But then, a mean boy came.

They had no castle. They had no fun. They had bad news. They had a bad day. +Tom and Anna wanted to celebrate the festival of lights. They saw many colorful lanterns and candles in the shops and on the streets. They asked their mom if they could buy some lanterns and candles too. + +Mom said, "Yes, you can, but only after we finish our chores. We have to clean the house, wash the dishes, and fold the clothes. Then we can go to the market and get some lanterns and candles." + +Tom and Anna were frustrated. They did not like chores. They wanted to celebrate the festival of lights now. They started to whine and complain. + +"Mom, we don't want to do chores. We want to go to the market. We want to see the lanterns and candles. Please, mom, please!" + +Mom sighed. She knew Tom and Anna were excited, but she also wanted them to learn to be patient and helpful. She said, "Tom and Anna, I understand you want to celebrate the festival of lights, but we have to do our chores first. Chores are important too. They help us keep our house neat and tidy. If we do our chores quickly and well, we will have more time to enjoy the festival of lights later. How about we make a deal? If you help me with the chores, I will let you choose one lantern and one candle each at the market. How does that sound?" + +Tom and Anna thought about it. They liked the idea of choosing their own lantern and candle. They decided to help mom with the chores. They said, "Okay, mom, we will help you with the chores. But can we hurry up? We don't want to miss the festival of lights." + +Mom smiled. She said, "Thank you, Tom and Anna. You are very good children. I'm sure we will finish the chores soon and then we can go to the market and celebrate the festival of lights together." +Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play in their room. They had many toys and books and pictures on the wall. One day, they saw a new picture in a shiny frame on their dresser. It was a photo of their mom and dad when they were young. + +"Who are they?" Ben asked, pointing at the picture. + +"They are our mom and dad, silly," Lily said. "Don't you know?" + +"But they look different," Ben said. "They have no glasses and no wrinkles and their hair is not gray." + +"That's because they were little like us," Lily said. "They were not old like now." + +Ben and Lily wanted to know more about their mom and dad when they were little. They had a plan. They would sneak into their mom and dad's room and look for more pictures in their closet. They waited until their mom and dad went to the kitchen to make lunch. Then they tiptoed to their room and opened the closet door. + +They saw many boxes and bags and clothes and shoes. They looked for the boxes that had pictures on them. They found one and opened it. They saw many photos of their mom and dad and their grandparents and their cousins and their friends. They saw them smiling and laughing and doing fun things.

They did not see them standing at the door. They did not notice them looking at them with surprise and amusement. + +"What are you two doing?" their mom asked. + +Ben and Lily jumped and dropped the photos. They looked at their mom and dad with guilty faces. + +"We were just looking at the pictures," Ben said. + +"We wanted to see you when you were little," Lily said. + +Their mom and dad smiled and hugged them.

They were happy. + +"We have a lot of stories to tell you," their mom said. + +"Come on, let's go to the living room and look at the pictures together," their dad said. + +Ben and Lily were glad.

They walk to the frame. + +Lily and Ben try to fit the shapes into the holes. They have a circle, a square, a triangle, and a star. Lily is clever. She knows where each shape goes. She puts the circle in the round hole, the square in the square hole, the triangle in the triangle hole, and the star in the star hole. + +"Good job, Lily, you are clever!" Ben says. He claps his hands. + +"Thank you, Ben, you are kind," Lily says. She smiles. + +They are happy. They play with the frame until it is time to go home. They walk back to their moms. They hug and say goodbye. + +"See you tomorrow, Lily," Ben says. + +"See you tomorrow, Ben," Lily says. + +They wave and go home. They had fun with the frame. +Lily liked to create things with paper and glue. She cut and folded and stuck different shapes and colors. She made a hat, a flower, a boat and a fan. She was very proud of her creations. + +She showed her fan to her mom. "Look, mom, I made a fan. It can make wind. See?" She waved the fan in front of her face and felt the breeze. + +"That's a beautiful fan, Lily. You are very clever and creative. Can I see your other things?" Mom asked. + +Lily nodded and ran to get her hat, flower and boat. She put them on the table and explained what they were. Mom smiled and praised her for each one. + +"Can I wear your hat?" Mom asked. + +"Sure, mom. You can wear my hat. It is very pretty. It has a star and a heart on it." Lily said. + +Mom put on the hat and Lily giggled. She thought her mom looked funny and cute. She gave her a big hug and said, "I love you, mom. You are the best." + +"I love you too, Lily. You are the best too. Thank you for making these wonderful things for me." Mom said. +Lily and Tom were playing in the sandbox. They had a bucket, a shovel and some toys. They liked to make castles and roads and mountains with the sand. + +"Look, I found a needle!" Tom said, holding up a shiny metal thing. "It's so pretty and sharp!" + +"Be careful, Tom!" Lily said. "Needle can hurt you. It can poke your skin and make you bleed. Needle is not a toy. Needle is terrible!" + +"Where did needle come from?" Tom asked. He looked around the sandbox. He saw a big hole in the fence. He saw a trash can on the other side. He saw some old clothes and bottles and cans. + +"Maybe needle came from trash can," Lily said. "Trash can has many bad things. We should not go near trash can. We should tell mom and dad about needle." + +"Okay," Tom said. "But what do we do with needle now? We can't leave it here. Someone else might find it and get hurt." + +Lily thought for a moment. She had an idea. She took the shovel and dug a deep hole in the sand. She told Tom to put the needle in the hole. Then she covered the hole with more sand. She patted the sand flat. + +"There," she said. "We bury needle. Now needle is gone. No one can see it or touch it. We are safe." + +Tom nodded. He was glad they bury needle. He did not like needle. He liked Lily. He gave her a hug. + +"Thank you, Lily," he said. "You are smart and kind. You are my best friend." + +Lily smiled. She hugged him back. + +"You are welcome, Tom," she said. "You are brave and funny. You are my best friend too." + +They held hands and ran to the house. They wanted to tell mom and dad what they did. They were proud of themselves. They were good children. +Lila was a big girl who liked to do things by herself. She was independent and did not need help from anyone. She could tie her shoes, brush her teeth, and make her bed. She was proud of herself and wanted to show her mom and dad. + +One day, she decided to make a cake for them. She found a recipe in a book and followed the steps. She mixed flour, sugar, eggs, and milk in a big bowl. She poured the batter in a pan and put it in the oven. She set the timer and waited. + +But she made a mistake. She forgot to add baking powder, which makes the cake rise and fluffy. When the timer beeped, she opened the oven and saw a flat and hard cake. She was very sad and angry. She threw the cake in the trash and started to weep. + +Her mom heard her crying and came to the kitchen. She saw the mess and the empty pan. She hugged Lila and asked her what happened. Lila told her everything and said she wanted to make a cake for her and dad. She said she was sorry and felt bad. + +Her mom kissed her and said it was okay. She said she was proud of Lila for trying to make a cake by herself. She said it was a good thing to be independent, but sometimes it was also good to ask for help or advice. She said she would help Lila make another cake, and they could taste it together. She said she loved Lila no matter what. + +Lila smiled and wiped her tears. She said she loved her mom too. She said she was sorry for making a mess and wasting the ingredients. She said she would help clean up and learn from her mistake. She said she still wanted to be independent, but she would also listen to her mom and dad. They hugged and went to make a new cake. +Ben and Mia were going to fly in an aeroplane with their mum and dad. They were very excited, but also a little scared.
