+One day, Anna wanted to make a special gift for her grandma. She decided to make a calendar with her drawings. She asked her mom for some paper and a stapler. She drew a picture for each month of the year. She wrote the names of the months and the numbers of the days with her mom's help.
+
+When she finished, she stapled the pages together. She was very proud of her calendar. She put it in a big envelope and wrote "To Grandma, with love, Anna" on it. She asked her mom to take her to the post office.
+
+At the post office, Anna saw a big machine that made stamps. She wanted to see how it worked. She asked her mom if she could squeeze the button. Her mom said yes, but told her to be careful. Anna squeezed the button and a stamp came out. She was amazed. She wanted to squeeze the button again. But her mom said no, they had to go.
+
+Anna gave her envelope to the lady at the counter. She told her it was a gift for her grandma. The lady smiled and said she would send it right away. Anna hoped her grandma would like her calendar. She hugged her mom and said thank you. She was happy.
+Jill and Ben were playing with paper. They liked to fold the paper into different shapes. Jill made a hat, Ben made a boat, and they pretended to go on an adventure.
+
+"Look, I have a fancy hat!" Jill said, putting the paper hat on her head. "I am a queen and you are my sailor."
+
+"Okay, I have a fancy boat!" Ben said, holding the paper boat in his hand. "I will take you to a faraway island where we can have a picnic."
+
+They took a basket and filled it with some food and drinks. They also took a bottle of wine that they saw on the table. They did not know what wine was, but it looked pretty and shiny.
+
+They went to the backyard and found a big puddle. They put the paper boat in the puddle and pretended it was the sea. They climbed on the boat and sailed away.
+
+"This is fun!" Jill said, smiling. "Let's have some wine to celebrate our trip."
+
+She opened the bottle and poured some wine into two cups. She gave one to Ben and kept one for herself. They clinked their cups and drank the wine.
+
+"Yuck!" Ben said, spitting out the wine. "This is not juice, this is sour and bitter!"
+
+"Yuck!" Jill said, making a face. "This is not good, this is bad!"
+
+They felt sick and dizzy. They threw away the cups and the bottle. They wanted to get off the boat, but the paper was wet and soggy. The boat started to sink and fall apart.
+
+"Help!" Jill said, crying. "We are sinking, we are drowning!"
+
+"Help!" Ben said, screaming. "We are wet, we are cold!"
+
+They tried to swim to the shore, but the puddle was deep and muddy. They could not see or breathe. They were scared and sorry.
+
+They wished they had not taken the wine. They wished they had not folded the paper. They wished they had not played with the fancy things.
+
+But it was too late. The end.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the snow. They want to make a snowman. They roll a big ball of snow for the body. They roll a smaller ball of snow for the head. They put the head on top of the body.
+
+"Look, our snowman is enormous!" Sara says.
+
+"Yes, he is. But he needs a face and some clothes," Ben says.
+
+They find two stones for the eyes, a carrot for the nose, and some sticks for the arms. They look for something to keep the snowman warm.
+
+"I have an idea!" Sara says. She runs to the house and comes back with a scarf. It is red and green and very long.
+
+"Wow, that is a nice scarf!" Ben says.
+
+"Thank you. It is my favorite. I will share it with the snowman," Sara says. She wraps the scarf around the snowman's neck. It is so long that it touches the ground.
+
+"There, now he is cozy and colorful," Sara says.
+
+They stand back and admire their snowman. They smile and hug each other.
+
+"We did a good job," Ben says.
+
+"Yes, we did. He is the best snowman ever," Sara says.
+Lily liked to play with her toy cars. She had many cars of different colors and sizes. She liked to make them zoom and beep on the floor of her room. Sometimes she pretended they were racing or going on a trip.
+
+One day, she found a new car in her toy box. It was shiny and red, and it had a button on the side. Lily wondered what the button did. She pressed it and the car made a loud noise. It sounded like "beep beep beep". Lily was surprised and happy. She pressed the button again and the car moved by itself. It went forward and backward, left and right. It was a reverse car!
+
+Lily decided to have fun with the reverse car. She put it on the floor and pressed the button. The car zoomed across the room, but it did not stop at the wall. It reversed and zoomed back to Lily. Lily laughed and clapped. She pressed the button again and the car zoomed to the other wall. It reversed and zoomed to the door. It reversed and zoomed to the window. It reversed and zoomed to the bed.
+
+Lily had so much fun with the reverse car that she forgot about her other cars. She played with it for a long time, making it go all over her room. Her room was colorful and noisy with the reverse car. Lily loved her new toy. She thought it was the best car ever.
+Tom and Anna were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had a big chest full of toys in their room. But Tom was naughty and did not like to share. He always wanted to have the best toys and keep them for himself.
+
+One day, Anna wanted to play with the train set that was in the chest. She asked Tom nicely if she could have a turn. But Tom said no and grabbed the train set. He said it was his and he would not let Anna touch it. Anna was sad and angry. She said Tom was mean and selfish.
+
+Tom did not care. He took the train set to the corner and played by himself. He made loud noises and pretended the train was going fast. He did not see that Anna had a plan. She sneaked to the chest and opened it. She saw a big bottle of juice that their mom had put there for a snack. She took the bottle and poured some juice on Tom's train set.
+
+Tom heard a splash and turned around. He saw his train set wet and sticky with juice. He was shocked and furious. He yelled at Anna and called her a bad sister. He tried to save his train set, but it was too late. The juice had spoiled it. It did not work anymore. Tom cried and cried.
+
+Anna felt sorry for Tom. She knew she had been naughty too. She said she was sorry and hugged Tom. She said they should share their toys and play nicely. Tom said he was sorry too and hugged Anna. He said he would not be selfish anymore. They decided to clean up the mess and find another toy to play with. They learned their lesson and became better twins.
+Lily and Max were best friends. They liked to play outside in the park. There was a big slide, a swing, and a sandbox. But their favorite thing was to climb the tree.
+
+One day, they saw a new place in the park. It was a small house with a door and a window. It looked adorable. They wanted to see inside.
+
+"Let's climb the house!" Lily said.
+
+"OK!" Max agreed.
+
+They ran to the house and tried to climb the wall. But it was too smooth and slippery. They could not reach the window.
+
+"Maybe we can use the door," Max said.
+
+They went to the door and pushed it. But it was locked. They could not open it.
+
+"Who lives in the house?" Lily wondered.
+
+"Maybe a fairy or a gnome," Max guessed.
+
+They knocked on the door and waited. But no one answered.
+
+They were sad. They wanted to see the house.
+
+"Maybe we can come back another day," Lily said.
+
+"Maybe," Max said.
+
+They held hands and walked back to the tree. They climbed the tree and looked at the house from above.
+
+They smiled. They still had fun. They were still best friends.
+Lily was an adventurous girl. She liked to explore the garden and look for bugs and flowers. One day, she saw a big spider on a web. She was not afraid of the spider. She wanted to be its friend.
+
+She ran inside and got a small plate and a spoon. She wanted to prepare a snack for the spider. She put some honey and bread on the plate and carried it carefully to the garden. She put the plate near the web and said, "Hello, spider. I brought you some food. Do you want to share?"
+
+The spider did not answer. It stayed on its web and watched Lily. Lily waited for a while, but the spider did not move. She felt sad. She thought the spider did not like her or her snack. She picked up the plate and said, "Bye, spider. Maybe you are not hungry. Maybe you have other friends. I hope you are happy."
+
+She walked away, feeling lonely. She did not see the spider come down from its web and crawl to the plate. The spider smelled the honey and bread and tasted them. They were sweet and soft. The spider liked them very much. It ate them all and felt full and happy.
+
+The spider wanted to thank Lily for the snack. It spun a new web and made a pattern with its silk. It made a heart and a smiley face. It hoped Lily would see it and know that it was grateful and friendly.
+
+The next day, Lily came back to the garden. She wanted to try again to be friends with the spider. She brought another plate with some cheese and grapes. She saw the new web and the pattern. She smiled and said, "Wow, spider. You made this for me? It is beautiful. Thank you. You are very clever and kind."
+
+She put the plate near the web and said, "I brought you some more food. Do you want to share?" The spider nodded and came down from its web. It crawled to the plate and ate some cheese and grapes. They were salty and juicy. The spider liked them too.
+
+Lily and the spider shared the snack and talked to each other. They learned each other's names and stories. They found out they had many things in common. They both liked to explore and learn new things. They both liked to make things and have fun. They both wanted to have friends.
+
+They became friends and played together every day. They prepared snacks for each other and enjoyed them. They made more patterns on the web and showed them to each other. They had many adventures and laughs. They were happy.
+Tim and Lily are friends. They like to draw and color pictures. They have a big folder to keep their pictures. The folder is orange. It is their favorite color.

+
+"Look, Tim, I drew a flower. It is pink and yellow," Lily says.
+
+"Wow, Lily, that is pretty. I drew a car. It is blue and red," Tim says.
+
+They are happy and proud of their pictures. They put them in their folder.
+
+But then, a big dog comes. The dog is black and brown. It has a loud bark. It runs to Tim and Lily. It wants to play. But Tim and Lily are scared. They do not like the dog.
+
+"Go away, dog! Leave us alone!" Tim shouts.
+
+The dog does not listen. It jumps on Tim and Lily. It knocks them down. It grabs their folder. It runs away with it.
+
+"Mom, help! The dog took our folder!" Lily cries.
+
+Mom hears them. She runs to them. She sees the dog. She chases the dog. She catches the dog. She takes the folder from the dog.
+
+"Are you okay, Tim and Lily?" Mom asks.
+
+"Yes, Mom, we are okay. Thank you for saving our folder," Tim says.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. You are brave. You protect us," Lily says.
+
+Mom hugs them. She gives them their folder. She checks their pictures. They are not torn or dirty.

+
+Tim and Lily smile. They are happy. They love their mom. They love their folder. They love their pictures. They do not love the dog.
+Anna and Ben are playing with paper. They like to fold the paper and make different shapes. Anna makes a bird, Ben makes a boat.

+"Look at my boat!" Ben says. "It can sail on the water!"
+
+They are happy with their paper shapes. They show them to their mom.
+
+"Wow, you are very creative!" Mom says. "Can I see your shapes?"
+
+Anna and Ben pass their shapes to Mom. Mom holds them gently and smiles.
+
+"These are very nice," Mom says. "But do you know what is even nicer?"
+
+"What?" Anna and Ben ask.
+
+"Sharing," Mom says. "Sharing is when you give something to someone else who likes it. It makes them happy, and it makes you happy too."
+
+"Really?" Anna and Ben say.
+
+"Yes, really," Mom says. "Why don't you try it? Maybe you can find someone who would like your shapes."
+
+Anna and Ben think for a moment. Then they have an idea.
+
+They run outside and look for their friend Lily. Lily is sitting on the grass, looking bored.
+
+"Hi, Lily!" Anna and Ben say. "Do you want to play with us?"
+
+"Sure," Lily says. "What are you playing?"

+"We are playing with paper shapes," Anna and Ben say. "We made them by folding paper. Look, this is a bird, and this is a boat."

+
+Sharing is caring. Sharing makes everyone happy. Sharing is a mild way to show love.
+Tom was a little mouse who loved cheese. He wanted to eat cheese every day, but he did not like to work. He was lazy and sneaky. He always tried to steal cheese from the big house where the people lived.
+
+One day, he saw a big piece of cheese on a table in the kitchen. He thought it was his lucky day. He ran to the table and jumped on it. He did not see the trap that was hidden under the cheese. It was a metal cage that snapped shut when he touched the cheese.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tom cried. He was scared and sorry. He wished he had worked hard to find his own cheese, instead of stealing from the people.
+
+Lily was a little mouse who lived in the same hole as Tom. She was smart and kind. She liked to work and help others. She heard Tom's cries and came to the kitchen. She saw him in the trap and felt sorry for him.
+
+"Don't worry, Tom. I will help you," she said. She looked around and saw a string that was tied to the cage. She pulled the string with her teeth and opened the cage. Tom was free.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend," Tom said. He hugged her and apologized for being lazy and sneaky. He learned his lesson. He decided to work hard and share his cheese with Lily and the other mice.
+
+The end.
+
+Moral value: Work hard and be honest, and you will have good friends and enough cheese.

+
+"Let's organize our cars and blocks first," Sam says. "We can put them in a pile near the pole."

+
+But then, a big boy comes. He sees the pile of toys. He wants to play with them. He takes the toys and throws them around. He breaks some of the cars and blocks.

+Sam and Ben see what the big boy is doing. They are upset. They run to the pile and try to get their toys back.
+
+"Stop it! Those are our toys!" Sam shouts.
+
+"Go away! These are mine now!" the big boy says. He pushes Sam and Ben. He makes them fall.
+
+Sam and Ben cry. They are hurt and sad. Their moms hear them and come to help. They see the mess and the big boy.
+
+"Who did this?" Sam's mom asks.
+
+"He did! He took our toys and broke them!" Ben says. He points at the big boy.
+
+The big boy looks scared. He runs away. He leaves the toys behind.
+
+Sam's mom and Ben's mom hug Sam and Ben. They try to comfort them. They pick up the toys and put them in a bag.
+
+"I'm sorry, boys. Your toys are ruined. We'll get you new ones later," Sam's mom says.

+
+They start to talk. Anna says, "I want to make a big house with the big blocks." Ben says, "I want to make a tall tower with the small blocks." They look at each other. They have different ideas. They do not agree.
+
+They try to make their own things, but they need more blocks. They start to take blocks from each other. Anna takes a big block from Ben's tower. Ben takes a small block from Anna's house. They get angry. They shout, "Stop! That's my block!"

+They push and pull the blocks. The blocks fall down. Their house and tower are broken. They are sad. They look at the mess. They feel sorry.
+
+They say, "I'm sorry. I should not take your block." They hug. They are friends again. They decide to share the blocks. They say, "Let's make something together with the new blocks." They smile. They start to talk. They have fun.
+Tom and Mia were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big circle on the grass. It was red and white and shiny. They ran to the circle and touched it.
+
+"Wow, what is this?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a toy. Can we play with it?" Mia said.
+
+They tried to lift the circle, but it was too heavy. They tried to roll it, but it did not move. They tried to look inside it, but it was closed.
+
+"Maybe it is a secret. Maybe there is something inside," Tom said.
+
+"Maybe there is a monster inside. Maybe it will come out and scare us," Mia said.
+
+They heard a loud noise. The circle opened. They saw a man come out. He wore a big suit and a helmet. He had wires and buttons on his chest. He looked at Tom and Mia.
+
+"Hello, kids. Don't be scared. I am not a monster. I am an astronaut. This is my spaceship. I came from the sky to visit your planet," he said.
+
+Tom and Mia were scared. They did not understand what he said. They thought he was a monster. They ran away from the circle. They ran to their mom and dad. They told them what they saw.
+
+"Mom, dad, there is a monster in the park. He came out of a big circle. He tried to scare us," Tom said.
+
+"Mom, dad, the circle is a spaceship. The monster is an astronaut. He came from the sky. He is not harmless," Mia said.
+
+Mom and dad looked at the park. They saw the circle and the man. They smiled. They knew he was not a monster. He was an astronaut. He was harmless. He came to explore and learn.
+
+"Kids, don't be scared. He is not a monster. He is an astronaut. He is harmless. He came to explore and learn. Let's go and say hello. Maybe he can teach us something new," mom said.
+
+"OK, mom. But can we hold your hand?" Tom and Mia said.
+
+Mom and dad nodded. They held Tom and Mia's hand. They walked to the circle and the man. They said hello. The man smiled. He took off his helmet. He showed them his spaceship. He told them about the sky and the stars. Tom and Mia listened. They were not scared anymore. They were curious. They asked him many questions. They learned something new. They made a new friend.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. But they also made a big mess. There were toys everywhere, and some of them were dirty from the floor.
+
+"Tom, Lily, time to clean up!" their mom called from the kitchen. "You can't leave your toys like this. They need to go back to their boxes."
+
+Tom and Lily did not want to stop playing. They liked their toys and did not want to put them away.
+
+"Mom, can we play a little more?" Tom asked. "Please?"
+
+"No, you have to clean up now. It's almost dinner time. And look at your toys, they are dirty. You need to remove the dirt from them, or they will get ruined." their mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily sighed. They did not know how to remove the dirt from their toys. They wished they had a magic spell that could do it for them.
+
+"Maybe we can use a spell," Lily whispered to Tom. "Do you know any spells?"
+
+Tom shook his head. He did not know any spells. He only knew some words that he learned from a book.
+
+"Maybe we can try some words," he said. "Maybe they will work as a spell."
+
+Tom and Lily picked up a dirty toy and held it in their hands. They closed their eyes and said the words they knew.
+
+"Cat, dog, sun, moon, red, blue, clean, clean, clean!"
+
+They opened their eyes and looked at the toy. It was still dirty.
+
+"It didn't work," Lily said. "The toy is still dirty."
+
+"Maybe we need to say different words," Tom said. "Or maybe we need to say them louder."
+
+They tried again with another toy. They said different words and said them louder.
+
+"Fish, bird, star, rain, green, yellow, clean, clean, clean!"
+
+They opened their eyes and looked at the toy. It was still dirty.
+
+"It still didn't work," Tom said. "The toy is still dirty."
+
+"Maybe we need to say more words," Lily said. "Or maybe we need to say them faster."
+
+They tried again with another toy. They said more words and said them faster.
+
+"Car, bike, ball, doll, pink, purple, orange, black, white, clean, clean, clean!"
+
+They opened their eyes and looked at the toy. It was still dirty.
+
+"It still didn't work," Lily said. "The toy is still dirty."
+
+They looked at each other and felt sad. They did not know how to remove the dirt from their toys. They did not know how to use a spell.
+
+"Tom, Lily, what are you doing?" their mom asked. She came into the living room and saw them holding dirty toys and saying strange words.
+
+"We are trying to use a spell to remove the dirt from our toys," Tom said.
+
+"A spell?" their mom asked. She smiled and shook her head. "You don't need a spell to remove the dirt from your toys. You just need a cloth and some water."
+
+She took a cloth and a bowl of water from the kitchen and showed them how to wipe the dirt from their toys. She helped them clean their toys and put them back in their boxes.
+
+"See? It's easy to remove the dirt from your toys. You don't need a spell. You just need to clean them," she said.
+
+Tom and Lily looked at their toys. They were clean and shiny. They felt happy and proud.
+
+"Thank you, mom," they said. "You are the best."
+
+They hugged their mom and gave her a kiss. They learned how to remove the dirt from their toys. They did not need a spell. They just needed their mom.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and balls. One day, they see a big belt on the floor. The belt is brown and shiny. It has a buckle with a star.
+
+"Wow, look at this belt!" Tom says. "It is so cool!"
+
+"Can I have it?" Sam asks.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Tom says. He puts the belt around his waist. "I am a cowboy!"
+
+Sam is sad. He wants the belt too. He waits for Tom to look away. Then he grabs the belt and runs.
+
+"Hey, stop!" Tom shouts. "You steal my belt!"
+
+Tom chases Sam. Sam runs fast, but Tom is faster. He catches Sam and pulls the belt. They both fall on the grass.
+
+"Give it back!" Tom says.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Sam says.
+
+They tug and pull. The belt breaks. The buckle falls off. The star is gone.
+
+They look at the belt. It is not shiny anymore. It is torn and dirty.
+
+They look at each other. They are both angry and sad.
+
+They throw the belt away. They do not want it anymore.
+
+They walk away. They do not talk.
+
+They see a lemon tree. There are many lemons on the branches.
+
+"Look, lemons!" Tom says.
+
+"Can we have some?" Sam asks.
+
+"Sure, why not?" Tom says.
+
+They pick some lemons. They peel them and bite them.
+
+They make a face. The lemons are sour. They are not sweet.
+
+They spit them out. They do not like them.
+
+They look at each other. They are both funny and silly.
+
+They laugh. They are not angry and sad anymore.
+
+They hug. They are friends again.
+
+They play with cars and balls. They forget about the belt. They are happy.
+Tim and Mia were best friends. They liked to play with their toy planes in the park. They made them soar in the air and pretended they were pilots.
+
+One day, a big boy came and took Mia's plane. He said it was his and he ran away. Mia was sad and cried. Tim was angry and wanted to help Mia.
+
+"Give it back!" Tim shouted at the big boy. "That is Mia's plane. She loves it very much. It has a lot of value to her."
+
+The big boy laughed and said, "No, it is mine now. It is a mighty plane. You can't have it."
+
+Tim ran after the big boy and tried to grab the plane. They fought and tugged and pulled. The plane broke in two. The big boy threw the pieces on the ground and ran away.
+
+Tim and Mia looked at the broken plane. They felt very bad. They hugged each other and said they were sorry.
+
+Then, they had an idea. They took the pieces and put them together in a new way. They made a new plane that was bigger and better than before. They made it soar in the air and pretended they were pilots again.
+
+They smiled and said, "We are best friends. We can fix anything. We have a mighty plane. It has a lot of value to us."
+Sam and Ben are friends. They like to play with trucks in the park. They have big trucks and small trucks. They make noises like vroom and beep.
+
+One day, they see a weird truck in the park. It is green and has long ears. It has a basket on the back. It does not make any noise. It hops around the grass.
+
+"Look, Ben, a hopping truck!" Sam says.
+
+"Wow, Sam, that is a weird truck!" Ben says.
+
+They run to the truck. They want to touch it. But the truck hops away. It is fast.
+
+"Come back, truck!" Sam and Ben shout.
+
+They chase the truck. They hop like the truck. They have fun.
+
+The truck stops near a tree. It turns around. It has a face. It smiles. It is not a truck. It is a bunny.
+
+"Hello, Sam and Ben," the bunny says. "I am not a truck. I am a bunny. I have a truck costume. I like to hop and play. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Sam and Ben are surprised. They laugh.
+
+"Yes, we want to play with you, bunny," they say.
+
+They play with the bunny. They hop and roll and toss the basket. They have more fun.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben like to play with their cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They make roads and bridges with their blocks. They pretend to be drivers and go fast and slow.
+
+One day, they decide to have a race. They choose their fastest cars and line them up at the start. They count to three and say "go". They push their cars along the road and cheer for themselves.
+
+"Go, go, go!" Lily says. "My car is red and shiny. It will win!"
+
+"No, no, no!" Ben says. "My car is blue and big. It will win!"
+
+They reach the bridge and see a problem. The bridge is broken. There is a gap in the middle. Their cars cannot cross.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily says. "What do we do?"
+
+"Look!" Ben says. "There is a truck. It can help us."
+
+They see a yellow truck on the side of the road. It has a long arm and a hook. They run to the truck and ask for help.
+
+"Please, please, please!" Lily says. "Can you save our cars? They are stuck on the bridge."
+
+"Sure, sure, sure!" the truck says. "I can save your cars. I have a strong arm and a hook. I can lift them over the gap."
+
+The truck moves to the bridge and uses its arm and hook to pick up the cars. It swings them over the gap and puts them on the other side. Lily and Ben clap and thank the truck.
+
+"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Lily says. "You are very kind and helpful. You saved our cars."
+
+"You're welcome, you're welcome, you're welcome!" the truck says. "You are very brave and fun. You like to race."
+
+Lily and Ben run to their cars and finish the race. They cross the finish line together and hug each other.
+
+"We both win!" Lily says. "We have fast cars and a good friend."
+
+"We both win!" Ben says. "We have fun cars and a nice truck."
+
+They look at the sky and see the sun. It is bright and clear. They smile and say:
+
+"What a great day!"
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to observe the birds and the flowers and the clouds. They had a big book with pictures of different things they could see in nature.
+
+"Look, Ben, a blue jay!" Lily said, pointing to a bird on a branch. "It has a crest and a black necklace and a white belly."
+
+"I see it, Lily. It is very pretty. Do you know what it eats?" Ben asked, opening the book.
+
+"Seeds and nuts and berries, I think. And sometimes insects," Lily said, reading the book.
+
+They observed the blue jay for a while, until it flew away. Then they looked for something else to observe.
+
+"Hey, what is that?" Ben said, noticing something shiny on the ground. He walked over to it and picked it up. It was a glove, but not a normal glove. It was made of metal and had wires and buttons and lights on it.
+
+"Wow, that is a strange glove. Where did it come from?" Lily said, joining Ben.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe someone lost it. Or maybe it is from a spaceship," Ben said, trying to put it on his hand. It was too big and heavy for him.
+
+"Be careful, Ben. It might be dangerous. It might have a laser or a bomb or something," Lily said, worried.
+
+"No, it is not dangerous. It is just dull. It doesn't do anything. See, I press the buttons and nothing happens," Ben said, disappointed.
+
+"Maybe it needs a battery or a code or something. Or maybe it is broken," Lily said, looking at the glove.
+
+"Maybe. Or maybe it is just a toy. A boring toy. Let's leave it here and look for something else to observe," Ben said, dropping the glove on the ground.
+
+"Okay. Maybe we can find a butterfly or a frog or a rainbow," Lily said, smiling.
+
+They left the glove behind and ran to another part of the park, where they observed many more things. They had fun and learned a lot. They didn't know that the glove was not a toy, but a very important device that belonged to a secret agent who was looking for it. And they didn't know that the glove was not dull, but very smart. And it was observing them.
+Sam is a smart boy. He likes to play with cars and trucks. He has many cars and trucks in his garage. He puts them in rows and makes noises like vroom and beep.
+
+One day, Sam finds a new car in his garage. It is red and shiny. It has four big wheels and a horn. Sam is very happy. He wants to play with the new car.
+
+But Sam also cares about his old cars and trucks. He does not want them to feel sad or lonely. He thinks they are his friends. He says to them, "Don't worry, I still love you. You can play with the new car too. We can have fun together."
+
+Sam takes the new car and some of his old cars and trucks outside. He makes a road with chalk and stones. He drives the new car and the old cars and trucks on the road. He makes them talk to each other and share stories. He makes them honk and laugh.
+
+Sam is a smart boy. He knows how to care for his toys. He knows how to make them happy. He has a lot of fun with his cars and trucks in his garage.
+Lila and Tom were playing with their toys in the garden. They had a big box of sand and some plastic animals. Lila liked to make cakes with the sand and pretend they were delicious. Tom liked to make noises with the animals and pretend they were in the jungle.
+
+"Look, I made a cake for you!" Lila said, holding a round sand cake with a flower on top. "It is very yummy!"
+
+"Thank you, Lila!" Tom said, taking the cake. "But I have something for you too!" He reached into the box and pulled out a big plastic rhinoceros. "This is a rhino. It is very strong and fast!"
+
+"Wow, Tom, it is very big!" Lila said, admiring the rhino. "But what does it do?"
+
+"It can run and charge and horn things!" Tom said, making the rhino run and charge and horn the sand cake. "It is very fun!"
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Lila said, grabbing the rhino. "You ruined my cake!"
+
+"Sorry, Lila, I was just playing!" Tom said, feeling bad. "Here, let me help you make another one!"
+
+They put the rhino aside and started to mix some more sand and water in a bowl. They added some leaves and berries and stones to make it more colorful. They were having fun mixing and stirring and patting the sand.
+
+But they did not notice that the rhino was not happy. It did not like to be left alone. It did not like to be wet and sandy. It did not like to smell like berries and leaves. It wanted to get away from the bowl and the cake and the children. It wanted to be clean and dry and free.
+
+So it waited until Lila and Tom were busy with their cake and then it sneaked away. It ran across the garden, looking for a place to hide. It saw a big pile of clothes that mom had hung to dry. It thought they looked soft and cozy. It jumped into the pile and buried itself under the clothes.
+
+But the clothes were not soft and cozy. They were scratchy and tight. They stuck to the rhino's skin and horns and eyes. They made it even more wet and sandy and smelly. The rhino did not like the clothes at all. It wanted to get out of the pile and shake off the clothes.
+
+But it was too late. Mom came out of the house and saw the pile of clothes moving and making noises. She thought there was a rat or a snake or something worse in the pile. She screamed and ran to get a broom. She came back and started to hit the pile with the broom, trying to scare away the animal.
+
+The rhino did not like the broom either. It felt the broom hitting its back and head and tail. It hurt and scared the rhino. It wanted to get away from the broom and the mom and the pile. It wanted to go back to the box and the children and the cake.
+
+So it jumped out of the pile and ran across the garden, looking for the box. It saw Lila and Tom sitting on the grass, eating their cake. It thought they looked nice and friendly. It ran to them and nudged them with its nose, trying to say sorry.
+
+But Lila and Tom did not recognize the rhino. They saw a big, wet, sandy, smelly, cloth-covered animal coming at them. They thought it was a monster or a ghost or something worse. They screamed and dropped their cake and ran to the house. They hid behind the door and peeked out, hoping the animal would go away.
+
+The rhino did not understand why the children screamed and ran. It thought they wanted to play with it. It felt sad and lonely and confused. It wanted to be friends with the children and share their cake. It looked at the cake on the ground and licked its lips. It was hungry and thirsty and tired.
+
+So it ate the cake and drank some water from the bowl. It felt better and happier and fuller. It decided to stay in the garden and wait for the children to come back. It hoped they would forgive it and love it and play with it. It lay down on the grass and closed its eyes. It dreamed of running and charging and horning things. It was a rhino. It was very fun.
+Lily liked to play in the garden. She liked to look at the flowers and the bugs. One day, she saw a caterpillar on a leaf. It was green and fuzzy. Lily wanted to touch it.
+
+She reached out her hand and pulled the leaf. The caterpillar wiggled and curled up. Lily was curious. She pulled the leaf closer to her face. The caterpillar uncurled and looked at her. Lily smiled.
+
+But then, she heard a loud noise. It was her dog, Spot. He was barking and running towards her. He wanted to play. Lily was anxious. She did not want Spot to hurt the caterpillar. She quickly put the leaf back on the plant. She hoped the caterpillar would be safe.
+
+She ran to Spot and hugged him. He licked her face. Lily laughed. She loved her dog. But she also loved the caterpillar. She looked back at the plant. She saw the caterpillar crawling away. She waved goodbye. She hoped to see it again.
+Sara and Ben wanted to cook some cookies for their mom. They went to the kitchen and found a big bowl, some flour, some sugar, some butter and some eggs. They put everything in the bowl and mixed it with a spoon.
+
+"Let's make shapes with the dough," Sara said. "I want to make a star, and a heart, and a flower."
+
+"Me too," Ben said. "But we need a rolling pin and some cookie cutters."
+
+They looked around and saw a rolling pin and some cookie cutters on the counter. They were careless and did not ask their mom if they could use them. They grabbed them and started to roll and cut the dough.
+
+But they did not notice that the weather was very windy outside. The window was open and a gust of wind blew into the kitchen. It knocked over the bowl and the spoon and made a big mess on the floor. It also blew some of the cookie cutters out of the window.
+
+"Oh no!" Sara and Ben cried. "Our cookies are ruined!"
+
+They heard their mom coming and quickly hid under the table. They hoped she would not be angry with them.
+
+Their mom entered the kitchen and saw the mess. She also saw the rolling pin and the cookie cutters on the counter. She guessed what had happened and smiled.
+
+"Sara, Ben, are you here?" she called. "I have a surprise for you."
+
+She lifted the tablecloth and saw them hiding. They looked scared and sorry.
+
+"Mom, we are sorry," Sara said. "We wanted to cook some cookies for you, but the wind blew everything away."
+
+"We were careless," Ben said. "We did not ask you if we could use your things."
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "It's okay, my loves. I appreciate your thoughtfulness, but next time, please ask me first. And don't worry about the cookies. I have a surprise for you. Look what I bought at the store."
+
+She showed them a big box of cookies in different shapes and colors. They had stars, hearts, flowers and more.
+
+"Wow!" Sara and Ben exclaimed. "Thank you, mom!"
+
+They helped their mom clean up the kitchen and then enjoyed the cookies together. They learned to be more careful and to ask before using things. They also learned that their mom loved them no matter what.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys. One day, they see a big box in the living room. It is a new table for Mom and Dad. The box has many screws and tools inside.
+
+"Look, Ben, screws!" Anna says. "Let's play with them!"
+
+"No, Anna, we can't. Mom and Dad will be angry. They need the screws for the table," Ben says.
+
+But Anna does not listen. She takes some screws and puts them in her pocket. She thinks they are shiny and fun. She runs to her room.
+
+Later, Mom and Dad come home. They want to make the table. But they cannot find all the screws. They look everywhere. They are confused and sad.
+
+"Where are the screws?" Mom asks.
+
+"I don't know, Mom," Ben says. He feels guilty. He knows Anna has some screws, but he does not want to tell.
+
+Anna hears Mom and Dad. She feels guilty too. She knows she did a bad thing. She takes the screws out of her pocket. She goes to the living room.
+
+"Mom, Dad, I'm sorry. I took some screws. I wanted to play with them. Here they are," Anna says. She gives the screws to Mom and Dad.
+
+Mom and Dad are surprised. They are not happy with Anna, but they are glad she told the truth. They hug her and thank her.
+
+"Anna, you should not take things that are not yours. The screws are for the table, not for playing. You could have hurt yourself or lost them. Next time, ask us first," Mom says.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom. I won't do it again," Anna says.
+
+"Ben, you should have told us too. You are Anna's brother. You should help her and protect her. Don't be afraid to tell us if something is wrong," Dad says.
+
+"I'm sorry, Dad. I was scared. I love Anna," Ben says.
+
+Mom and Dad smile. They forgive Anna and Ben. They say they love them too. They make the table together. They use all the screws. They are happy. They buy a new toy for Anna and Ben. It is a puzzle. They play with it together. They have fun.
+Tommy loves to play with his trumpet. He likes to make loud noises and pretend he is in a band. He has a cute dog named Spot who likes to play with him too.
+
+One day, Tommy wants to prepare a show for his mom and dad. He puts on his hat and his coat and takes his trumpet and Spot outside. He finds a big rock and climbs on it. He tells Spot to sit and watch.
+
+"Hello, mom and dad!" he shouts. "Welcome to my show! I am Tommy the trumpet player and this is Spot the dog. We are going to play some music for you. Are you ready?"
+
+He blows his trumpet as hard as he can. He makes high sounds and low sounds and funny sounds. Spot barks and wags his tail. He thinks Tommy is very funny.
+
+Mom and dad clap and cheer. They think Tommy and Spot are very cute and talented. They give them hugs and kisses and say they are proud of them.
+
+Tommy and Spot are happy. They like to make mom and dad happy. They like to play with their trumpet and have fun. They are a good team.
+Lily and Tom are playing in the park. They see a big tree with many leaves. They want to climb the tree and see the birds.
+
+They hold the branches and go up. They are happy and laugh. They see a nest with eggs. They say hello to the eggs.
+
+But then, Lily feels something on her arm. She looks and sees a red spot. It is an itch. She says, "Ow, ow, ow! I have an itch!"
+
+Tom looks and sees a red spot too. He has an itch as well. He says, "Me too, me too! I have an itch!"
+
+They wonder what made them itch. They see a small bug on the branch. It is a bug that bites. They say, "Go away, bug! You are bad!"
+
+They want to go down the tree. But the branch is hard. They cannot break it. They are stuck.
+
+They are scared and sad. They cry, "Help, help, help!"
+
+A man hears them. He comes to the tree. He sees Lily and Tom. He says, "Don't worry, kids. I will help you."
+
+He takes a big stick. He shakes the branch. The branch falls. Lily and Tom fall too. But they are not hurt. They land on the grass.
+
+The man says, "Are you okay, kids?"
+
+Lily and Tom say, "Yes, thank you, mister. You are good!"
+
+The man says, "You're welcome, kids. But be careful. Don't climb trees with bugs that bite. They can make you itch."
+
+Lily and Tom say, "Okay, mister. We will remember."
+
+They hug the man. They say goodbye. They go home with their mom. They put cream on their itches. They feel better. They are happy.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park with their new equipment. They had a ball, a bat, a glove and a cone. They wanted to play catch and hit the ball with the bat. Sara was good at throwing and catching, but Ben was not. He missed the ball many times and got angry.
+
+"Ben, you need to practice more and have fun," Sara said. "It's okay if you make mistakes. That's how you learn."
+
+But Ben did not listen. He was impatient and wanted to hit the ball hard. He shouted at Sara and said mean things. He said she was a bad friend and a bad player. He said he did not want to play with her anymore. He took the ball, the bat, the glove and the cone and ran away.
+
+Sara was sad and hurt. She did not understand why Ben was so rude. She sat on the bench and cried. She wished Ben would come back and say sorry.
+
+A few minutes later, Ben came back. He looked scared and sorry. He had a big bump on his head and a tear in his shirt. He said he tripped and fell while running. He said he hit his head on a rock and ripped his shirt on a branch. He said he was sorry for shouting and being mean. He said he wanted to be Sara's friend again.
+
+Sara was happy and relieved. She hugged Ben and said she forgave him. She said she was sorry he got hurt. She said they could play catch and hit the ball again. She said they could share the equipment and help each other.
+
+Ben nodded and smiled. He said he learned his lesson. He said he would be more patient and kind. He said he would listen to Sara and have fun. He said he was glad they were friends.
+
+They played together for a long time. They threw and caught and hit the ball. They laughed and cheered and clapped. They had a lot of fun.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be patient and kind with your friends. Don't shout and be mean. Share and help each other. Have fun and learn from your mistakes.
+Sara and Lily were playing with their dolls in the garden. They liked to dress them up in different clothes and make them talk. Sara had a pink doll with long hair and Lily had a blue doll with short hair.
+
+"Let's pretend they are sisters and they are going to a party," Sara said.
+
+"OK, but my doll is the older sister and she can tell your doll what to do," Lily said.
+
+Sara did not like that. She wanted her doll to be the older sister. She did not want Lily to boss her around.
+
+"No, my doll is the older sister and she can choose the party dress," Sara said.
+
+They started to argue and pull the dolls from each other. Sara pulled too hard and Lily's doll fell on the ground. Lily cried out.
+
+"Ow, you hurt my doll! Look, her arm is broken!" Lily said.
+
+Sara felt bad. She did not mean to hurt Lily's doll. She looked at the broken arm and saw a crack in the plastic.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I did not want to hurt your doll. I was just angry," Sara said.
+
+Lily sniffed and picked up her doll. She hugged it and looked at Sara.
+
+"It's OK, Sara. I was angry too. I should not have been bossy. Can we still be friends?" Lily said.
+
+Sara nodded and smiled. She hugged her doll and Lily.
+
+"Yes, we can still be friends. And we can still play with our dolls. Maybe we can fix your doll's arm with some tape," Sara said.
+
+They went inside the house and asked Sara's mom for some tape. They wrapped the tape around Lily's doll's arm and made it look better. Then they went back to the garden and played with their dolls. They pretended they were sisters and they were going to a party. They shared the clothes and the accessories and made them talk nicely. They had fun and did not argue anymore.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Tom were bored. They wanted to play, but it was too cold outside. They looked around the house for something fun to do.
+
+"Let's play hide and seek!" Lily said. "You count to ten and I will hide."
+
+"OK," Tom said. He closed his eyes and started to count. "One, two, three..."
+
+Lily ran to the kitchen. She saw the big freezer where Mom kept the ice cream and the popsicles. She opened the door and climbed inside. She thought it was a good hiding spot.
+
+"Ten!" Tom shouted. He opened his eyes and looked for Lily. He checked the living room, the bedroom, the bathroom, but he could not find her. He scratched his head and wondered where she was.
+
+He heard a muffled giggle from the kitchen. He followed the sound and saw the freezer door. He opened it and saw Lily sitting on a bag of frozen peas. She was shivering and smiling.
+
+"Found you!" Tom said. He helped Lily out of the freezer. "Why did you hide in there? It's very cold!"
+
+"It was fun!" Lily said. "But I'm glad you found me. I was getting too cold."
+
+"Next time, let's hide somewhere warmer," Tom said. He gave Lily a hug. "You're a jolly sister, but you're also a silly one."
+
+They laughed and went to the living room. They asked Mom for some hot chocolate and cookies. They warmed up and played some more. They had a good day.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to jog in the park with their dogs. Tom has a big dog named Rex. Sam has a small dog named Spot.
+
+One day, they jog to a new part of the park. They see a big pond with ducks and fish. Rex and Spot want to play with the ducks and fish. They run to the pond and jump in the water.
+
+"Rex, Spot, come back!" Tom and Sam shout. "The pond is not for dogs!"
+
+But Rex and Spot do not listen. They swim and splash and chase the ducks and fish. The ducks and fish are scared. They quack and splash and swim away.
+
+Then, Rex and Spot see something else in the pond. It is a big green thing with a long tail and sharp teeth. It is a crocodile. The crocodile is hungry. It sees Rex and Spot and opens its mouth.
+
+"Rex, Spot, look out!" Tom and Sam scream. "There is a crocodile in the pond!"
+
+Rex and Spot are scared. They swim as fast as they can to the shore. The crocodile swims after them. It is faster than them.
+
+Tom and Sam are scared too. They run to the shore and grab Rex and Spot by their heels. They pull them out of the water and hug them.
+
+"Are you okay, Rex, Spot?" Tom and Sam ask. "You are very brave, but very silly. You should not go in the pond. The pond is for ducks and fish and crocodiles, not for dogs."
+
+Rex and Spot are wet and tired and sorry. They lick Tom and Sam's faces and wag their tails.
+
+"We are okay, Tom, Sam," Rex and Spot say. "We are sorry. We will not go in the pond again. We love you."
+
+Tom and Sam smile and pet Rex and Spot. They are happy that their dogs are safe. They jog back to their home and give them a treat. They are good friends.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big bird with a hurt wing. The bird is sad and scared. Anna and Ben want to help the bird.
+
+They are careful. They do not make noise or move fast. They find a box and a blanket. They put the bird in the box and cover it with the blanket. They take the box to Anna's house. Anna's mom is a vet. She knows how to heal animals.
+
+Anna's mom looks at the bird. She says the bird is from a far place. There is a war in the far place. The war is bad. It hurts many animals and people. The bird flew away from the war, but it got hurt on the way. Anna's mom gives the bird some medicine and a bandage. She says the bird needs rest and love.
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They visit the bird every day. They give the bird water and seeds. They talk to the bird and sing to it. The bird gets better. It moves its wing and makes noises. It likes Anna and Ben.
+
+One day, Anna's mom says the bird is ready to fly again. She says there is a place where the bird can be safe and free. She says she will take the bird there. Anna and Ben are sad. They will miss the bird. But they are also glad. They want the bird to be happy.
+
+They go with Anna's mom to the place. It is a big field with many trees and flowers. They see other birds like the bird they helped. They open the box and let the bird out. The bird looks at Anna and Ben. It makes a loud noise. It sounds like thank you. Then it flies away with the other birds.
+
+Anna and Ben smile. They wave goodbye to the bird. They are proud. They helped the bird heal. They hope the war will end soon. They hope all the animals and people will be safe and free. They hug each other. They are still friends. They will always remember the bird.
+Anna liked to play in the garden with her doll. She gave her doll a name. She called her Lily. Lily had a pink dress and yellow hair. Anna thought Lily was very pretty.
+
+One day, Anna saw a rose in the garden. It was red and smelled nice. Anna wanted to give the rose to Lily. She thought Lily would like it. She picked the rose and ran to her doll.
+
+But when she got to Lily, she saw that Lily was not happy. Lily had a dull face and a tear in her dress. Anna was sad. She asked Lily, "What happened? Who hurt you?"
+
+Lily said, "A big dog came and bit me. He was mean and scary. He ran away with my shoe. I don't like him."
+
+Anna hugged Lily and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I don't like him either. He was bad. But look, I have a rose for you. It is red and smells nice. Do you like it?"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Yes, I like it. Thank you, Anna. You are a good friend. The rose is beautiful. It makes me happy."
+
+Anna was glad. She said, "You're welcome, Lily. You are a good friend too. The rose is for you. Let's play together."
+
+Anna and Lily played in the garden with the rose. They forgot about the big dog and the tear in the dress. They were happy.
+Tom and Sue are twins. They like to play on the beach. They find many shells on the sand. They put them in a big bucket.
+
+"Look, Tom, this shell is pretty. It has many colors," Sue says. She shows Tom a shell that is pink and blue and green.
+
+"I like this shell more. It is big and shiny," Tom says. He shows Sue a shell that is white and smooth.
+
+They start to argue. They both want the best shells. They pull and tug at the bucket. The bucket falls over. The shells spill out.
+
+"Oh no, our shells!" Sue cries. Tom feels sad too.
+
+They see a curious crab. It walks over to the shells. It picks up a shell with its claw. It tries to separate the shell from the sand. It makes a loud noise.
+
+"Hey, crab, stop that! Those are our shells!" Tom shouts. He runs to the crab. He tries to take the shell from the crab.
+
+The crab does not like that. It pinches Tom's finger with its claw. Tom screams. He lets go of the shell.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! That hurts!" Tom says. He holds his finger. He cries.
+
+Sue runs to Tom. She hugs him. She feels sorry for him.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom. I didn't mean to fight with you. We can share the shells. They are all pretty," Sue says.
+
+Tom nods. He wipes his tears. He smiles.
+
+"I'm sorry too, Sue. You are right. We can share the shells. They are all shiny," Tom says.
+
+They look at the crab. The crab still has the shell. It looks happy.
+
+"Maybe we can give the crab a shell too. It likes shells. It is curious," Sue says.
+
+Tom agrees. They pick up another shell. They give it to the crab. The crab takes it. It makes a happy noise.
+
+Tom and Sue laugh. They pick up the rest of the shells. They put them back in the bucket. They play on the beach. They are happy. They are friends.
+Sara and Ben were playing with their cart in the park. They liked to fill it with leaves, sticks and rocks and pull it around. Sara was older than Ben, so she pulled the cart most of the time.
+
+"Ben, it's your turn to pull the cart now," Sara said. "I'm tired of pulling it."
+
+"But I don't want to pull the cart," Ben said. "It's too heavy and hard. I want to play with the swings."
+
+Sara was upset. She thought Ben was being lazy and selfish. She wanted to share the cart with him, but he only wanted to have fun.
+
+"That's not fair, Ben," Sara said. "We both have to pull the cart. It's our cart, not mine or yours. If you don't pull the cart, I won't play with you."
+
+Ben was upset too. He thought Sara was being bossy and mean. He wanted to play with the swings, but she only wanted to pull the cart.
+
+"That's not fair, Sara," Ben said. "We both have to play with the swings. It's our park, not yours or mine. If you don't play with me, I won't pull the cart."
+
+Sara and Ben started to cry. They both wanted to play together, but they couldn't agree on what to do. They sat on the ground and hugged their cart, feeling sad and angry.
+
+Then they saw a big dog running towards them. The dog was friendly and wagged its tail. It sniffed the cart and licked their faces. Sara and Ben stopped crying and laughed. They liked the dog and petted it.
+
+"Look, Sara, the dog likes our cart," Ben said. "Maybe we can pull the cart with the dog. That would be fun."
+
+"Look, Ben, the dog likes the swings too," Sara said. "Maybe we can play with the swings with the dog. That would be fun too."
+
+Sara and Ben smiled at each other. They decided to share the cart and the swings with the dog. They pulled the cart together, with the dog helping them. They played with the swings together, with the dog jumping and barking. They had a lot of fun and forgot their fight. They were happy again.
+Ben and Mia liked to swim in the pool. They wore hats and goggles and kicked their legs. They played games and splashed water. They had fun.
+
+One day, they saw a big yellow thing in the water. It was a banana. They wondered who put it there. They swam closer to look at it.
+
+"Hello, little fish," said the banana. "I am a gifted banana. I can talk and swim and sing. Do you want to be my friends?"
+
+Ben and Mia were surprised. They had never seen a talking banana before. They did not know what to say.
+
+"Wow, you are a gifted banana," said Ben. "How did you learn to swim?"
+
+"I fell off a boat," said the banana. "But I did not sink. I found out I could float and move in the water. And I learned to talk by listening to the radio on the boat. And I learned to sing by copying the birds."
+
+"That's amazing," said Mia. "Can you sing a song for us?"
+
+"Sure," said the banana. "I can sing a song about bananas. Do you like bananas?"
+
+"Yes, we do," said Ben and Mia.
+
+"Then listen to my song," said the banana. And he sang:
+
+I am a banana, a banana, a banana
+I am yellow and sweet and good to eat
+I am a banana, a banana, a banana
+I can swim and talk and sing a song
+
+Ben and Mia clapped and cheered. They liked the banana's song. They decided to be friends with the banana. They swam and talked and sang with him. They had more fun.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play games together. Today they play hide and seek in the garden. Anna counts to ten and then looks for Ben. She finds him behind a big tree. "I see you, Ben!" she says. Ben laughs and runs away. They have fun.

+But soon it is time to go inside. Mom calls them for dinner. "Come on, Anna and Ben, it's getting dark. You need to bathe and eat," she says. Anna and Ben are not happy. They want to play more. "Can we play one more game, Mom?" they ask. Mom shakes her head. "No, you are dirty and hungry. You can play more tomorrow," she says.
+
+Anna and Ben follow Mom to the bathroom. They take off their clothes and get into the tub. Mom pours warm water and soap on them. She scrubs their hair and skin. She makes bubbles and shapes with the foam. Anna and Ben start to smile. They splash each other and giggle. They play with their rubber ducks and boats. They forget about their game. They enjoy their bath.
+
+Mom dries them with a towel and puts on their pajamas. She gives them a hug and a kiss. She takes them to the kitchen. She serves them soup and bread. They eat and drink. They tell Mom about their game and their bath. Mom listens and smiles. She is proud of them. She says they are good and brave. She says they are perfect. Anna and Ben feel happy and warm. They love Mom. They love each other. They love their game and their bath. They have a perfect day.
+Lily liked to ask questions. She asked her mom, her dad, her brother, and her teacher. She asked about the sky, the sea, the stars, and the trees. She asked about everything she saw and heard.
+
+One day, Lily went to the zoo with her family. She saw many animals, big and small, furry and scaly, loud and quiet. She asked her mom, "What is that?" and her mom said, "That is a lion. He is the king of the jungle. He has a big mane and sharp teeth. He can roar very loud."
+
+Lily wanted to see the lion closer. She asked her dad, "Can I go near the lion?" and her dad said, "No, Lily. The lion is not a pet. He is wild and dangerous. He might hurt you if you go near him. You have to stay behind the fence."
+
+Lily was not happy. She wanted to talk to the lion. She thought he looked charming, with his golden fur and his amber eyes. She thought he might be lonely, with no friends to play with. She thought he might be bored, with nothing to do but sleep and eat.
+
+She waited until her mom and dad were busy looking at the monkeys. She sneaked away from them and ran to the lion's cage. She climbed over the fence and jumped inside. She smiled at the lion and said, "Hello, Mr. Lion. I am Lily. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+The lion was surprised. He had never seen a child like Lily before. He was curious and hungry. He licked his lips and said, "Hello, Lily. I am Leo. You are very brave and very foolish. Do you know what I do to friends like you?"
+
+Lily did not know. She did not hear the alarm that sounded. She did not see the zookeepers that ran to the cage. She did not feel the fear that gripped her parents. She only saw the lion's charming smile and heard his friendly voice. She said, "No, Leo. What do you do?"
+
+The lion opened his mouth and said, "I eat them."
+Sara loves to play dress-up. She has many costumes in her big box. She can be a princess, a pirate, a fairy, or a doctor. She likes to pretend and make stories with her toys.
+
+One day, Sara wants to go to a party with her friends. She needs to find a costume that is fun and pretty. She looks in her box and sees a pink dress with sparkles. She likes it a lot. She puts it on and feels like a star.
+
+But then, she hears her mom call her. "Sara, hurry up! We have to go soon!" Sara runs to the door with her dress. She sees her mom's face. Her mom looks angry. "Sara, what are you wearing? That is not your costume. That is an expensive dress that I bought for a special day. You can't wear it to a party. You will ruin it!"
+
+Sara feels sad and sorry. She did not know that the dress was not a costume. She did not want to make her mom angry. She takes off the dress and puts it back in the box. She says, "I'm sorry, mom. I did not mean to be bad. I just wanted to look pretty."
+
+Her mom hugs her and says, "It's okay, Sara. I know you did not know. But you have to be careful with things that are expensive. They are not for playing. They are for keeping. You are pretty in any costume. Now, let's find another one that is more suitable for a party. Hurry up, we don't have much time."
+Lily loved to swing on the big swing in the park. She liked to go high and feel the wind in her hair. She also liked to wear her jewelry that her mommy gave her. She had a shiny necklace, a pretty bracelet and a sparkly ring. She felt like a princess when she wore them.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mommy and saw a new girl on the swing. The girl had long curly hair and a pink dress. She also had jewelry, but more than Lily. She had earrings, a necklace, a bracelet, a ring and a tiara. She looked at Lily and said, "Hi, I'm Bella. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lily nodded and got off the swing. She walked over to Bella and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. I like your jewelry. It's very shiny."
+
+Bella smiled and said, "Thank you. It's all mine. My daddy buys me whatever I want. He says I'm his little princess. Do you want to see my other jewelry? I have a lot more at home."
+
+Lily felt a little sad. She only had three pieces of jewelry, and she loved them very much. She said, "No, thank you. I like my jewelry. It's enough for me."
+
+Bella frowned and said, "Oh, you're no fun. You're just jealous. You have boring jewelry. You're not a princess. You're a poor girl."
+
+Lily felt angry and hurt. She said, "No, I'm not. You're mean. You're spoiled. You don't know how to share. You don't have any friends."
+
+Bella gasped and said, "How dare you? I have lots of friends. They all love me. You're just a liar. Go away. Leave me alone."
+
+Lily ran back to her mommy and hugged her. She said, "Mommy, I don't like that girl. She's mean and spoiled. She made fun of my jewelry. She said I'm not a princess."
+
+Mommy kissed Lily and said, "Don't listen to her, sweetie. You're my princess. You're kind and generous. You don't need a lot of jewelry to be beautiful. You're beautiful inside and out. I love you, Lily."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I love you too, mommy. Can we go back to the swing?"
+
+Mommy nodded and said, "Of course, honey. Let's go swing together."
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and dress up. One day, they find a big hat in their mom's closet. It is red and has a long feather. It is very expensive, but they do not know that.
+
+They want to try the hat on, but it is too big for them. They have an idea. They use a scarf to tie the hat around their heads. Now they look like pirates. They say "Arrr!" and pretend to sail a ship.
+
+They go to the kitchen to find some treasure. They see a jar of honey on the counter. They think it is gold. They want to take it, but it is too heavy. They try to pull it, but it falls down. The jar breaks and the honey spills everywhere. It is sticky and sweet.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to the kitchen. She sees the mess and the hat. She is not happy. She says "What are you doing? That hat is expensive! And look at the honey! You made a big mess!"
+
+Lily and Ben are sorry. They say "We are sorry, Mom. We were playing pirates. We thought the honey was gold. We did not mean to break the jar and the hat."
+
+Mom sighs. She says "I know you were playing, but you have to be careful. That hat was a gift from Grandma. And honey is not gold, it is food. You have to ask before you take things. Now help me clean up."
+
+Lily and Ben help Mom clean up the honey and the glass. They say "We are sorry, Mom. We love you. Can we still play pirates?"
+
+Mom smiles. She says "Yes, you can still play pirates. But use your own hats and scarves. And no more honey, please. It is almost time for lunch."
+
+Lily and Ben hug Mom. They say "Thank you, Mom. You are the best. We love you too."
+
+They go back to their room and play pirates with their own hats and scarves. They have fun and do not make any more mess. They are happy.
+Lila hated radishes. She thought they were yucky and spicy and made her mouth hurt. She did not want to eat them, ever.
+
+But her mom always put radishes in her salad. She said they were good for her and made her strong and healthy. She told Lila to be obedient and finish her plate.
+
+One day, Lila had a plan. She saw a big bowl of radishes on the kitchen table. She decided to hide them under her bed, so her mom would not find them. She thought she was very clever.
+
+But she was not. Her mom noticed that the radishes were gone. She asked Lila where they were. Lila tried to lie, but her mom knew she was not telling the truth. She told Lila to show her where the radishes were.
+
+Lila had to take her mom to her room. She lifted the bed sheet and saw the radishes. They were rotten and smelly and had bugs on them. Lila felt sick and scared. She knew she had done something bad.
+
+Her mom was angry and sad. She said, "Lila, why did you do this? You wasted good food and made a mess. You were not obedient, you were naughty. You have to say sorry and clean up your room. And you have to eat a radish every day for a week."
+
+Lila cried and said sorry. She did not like radishes, but she did not like being naughty either. She learned her lesson. She decided to try to be obedient and eat what her mom gave her. Maybe radishes were not so bad after all.
+Lily and Ben were squirrels who liked to play in the park. They liked to climb trees, chase birds and find acorns. One day, they saw a big pile of acorns under a big oak tree. They ran to the pile and started to fill their cheeks with acorns.
+
+"Wow, look at all these acorns!" Lily said. "We can eat them for a long time!"
+
+"Yes, they are yummy and crunchy!" Ben said. "But we have to be careful. The big oak tree might get angry if we take too many."
+
+They looked up at the big oak tree. It had a lot of leaves and branches. It looked very old and wise.
+
+"Hello, big oak tree!" Lily said. "Can we have some of your acorns, please?"
+
+The big oak tree did not answer. It was very quiet.
+
+"Maybe it is sleeping," Ben said. "Or maybe it does not hear us. We are very small."
+
+They decided to take some more acorns. They were very happy and greedy. They did not notice that the big oak tree was watching them with its eyes.
+
+The big oak tree was not sleeping. It was not happy. It did not like the squirrels taking its acorns. It wanted to teach them a lesson. It waited for the right moment.
+
+When Lily and Ben were about to leave, the big oak tree shook its branches. It made a loud noise. It dropped a lot of acorns on the squirrels.
+
+"Ouch!" Lily and Ben said. "What is that?"
+
+They looked up and saw the big oak tree. It was angry. It had a big mouth and a big voice.
+
+"Stop taking my acorns!" the big oak tree said. "They are mine! I worked hard to grow them! You have to ask me first!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They dropped their acorns and ran away. They were very clumsy. They tripped and fell. They had bumps and bruises.
+
+"Sorry, big oak tree!" they said. "We did not know! We will not do it again!"
+
+They learned their lesson. They never took acorns from the big oak tree without asking. They were more polite and respectful. They also shared their acorns with other squirrels. They were happier and friendlier.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to taste new things. One day, they found a big jar of honey in the kitchen. They wanted to taste it, but their mom said no. She said honey was for grown-ups and they could get sick.
+
+But Ben and Lily did not listen. They waited until their mom went to the store and then they opened the jar. They dipped their fingers in the honey and licked them. It was sweet and sticky and yummy. They wanted more and more.
+
+Soon, they had eaten half of the jar. They felt sick and their mouths hurt. They heard their mom come back and they hid the jar under the table. They hoped she would not see it.
+
+But their mom saw the jar and the honey on their faces. She was angry and sad. She said they were foolish and naughty. She said they had to go to bed without dinner. She said they had to say sorry to the bees who made the honey.
+
+Ben and Lily felt bad. They wished they had listened to their mom. They said sorry to their mom and to the bees. They went to bed with a bad taste in their mouths and a bad memory in their heads. They learned their lesson and never ate honey again.
+Anna and Ben were twins who loved to joke. They liked to make funny faces, tell silly stories and play tricks on each other. One day, they went to the zoo with their mom and dad. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys and elephants. But their favorite were the reindeer. They had big horns, soft fur and shiny noses.
+
+"Look, Ben, that one looks like Rudolph!" Anna said, pointing to a reindeer with a red nose.
+
+"Maybe he can fly and pull Santa's sleigh!" Ben said, pretending to be amazed.
+
+They ran to the fence and tried to talk to the reindeer. They asked him his name, where he lived and what he liked to eat. The reindeer did not answer. He just looked at them with his big brown eyes and chewed some grass.
+
+"Maybe he is shy," Anna said.
+
+"Or maybe he is weak," Ben said, joking. "Maybe he can't fly or pull anything. Maybe he is just a lazy reindeer."
+
+Anna laughed. She thought Ben was funny. But the reindeer did not like Ben's joke. He felt hurt and angry. He wanted to show Ben that he was not weak or lazy. He wanted to show him that he was strong and fast.
+
+He waited for the right moment. When Ben turned his back to look at another animal, the reindeer ran towards him. He lowered his head and bumped Ben with his horns. Ben fell to the ground and cried. He was scared and hurt.
+
+"Ben, are you okay?" Anna asked, running to him.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Ben said, holding his back.
+
+The reindeer snorted and walked away. He felt proud and happy. He had shown Ben that he was not weak or lazy. He had shown him that he was a real reindeer.
+
+Mom and dad came and helped Ben. They checked his back and gave him a hug. They told him he was brave and that they loved him. They also told him that he should not joke about the animals. They said that the animals had feelings and that they did not like to be teased.
+
+Ben felt sorry. He realized that he had been mean and rude. He looked at the reindeer and said, "I'm sorry, reindeer. I was joking. I did not mean to hurt you. You are a very strong and fast reindeer. You are a very good reindeer."
+
+The reindeer heard Ben's words. He looked at him with his big brown eyes and nodded. He forgave Ben. He understood that Ben was joking. He also understood that Ben had learned his lesson.
+
+Anna and Ben smiled at the reindeer. They thanked him for being nice and forgiving. They said goodbye and waved. They left the zoo with their mom and dad. They had learned a lot that day. They had learned to be kind and respectful to the animals. They had also learned to be careful with their jokes. They still liked to joke, but they never joked about the reindeer again.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to skip and play outside. One day, she went outside without putting on any lotion and her skin got very red and sore. 
+
+Her mommy saw her and put some lotion on her skin. Lily felt much better and was grateful to her mommy for helping her. From then on, she always remembered to put on lotion before going outside to play. 
+
+The next day, Lily went outside again and skipped around, feeling happy and healthy with her skin protected by lotion. She was grateful for her mommy's help and skipped even more joyfully than before. The end.
+Once upon a time, there was a frog who lived in a pond. The frog was very big and liked to eat lots of bugs. One day, the frog saw a little fly and tried to catch it. But the frog was so big that he accidentally jumped out of the pond and onto the ground.
+
+The frog was very heavy and couldn't move. A little girl saw the frog and tried to help him. She picked him up and put him on a scale to weigh him. The frog was very heavy and weighed more than the little girl.
+
+The little girl tried to put the frog back in the pond, but he was too heavy. The frog was stuck on the ground and couldn't move. Sadly, the frog was too heavy and eventually became dead. The little girl was very sad and went home crying. The end.

+
+Timmy was sad and went to sit on a bench. Suddenly, a mean cat came and stole Timmy's order of french fries. Timmy started to cry. Max saw what happened and knew he had to help. He ran over to the cat and kicked the french fries out of the cat's paws. 
+
+Timmy was so happy that Max had saved his fries. "Thank you, Max!" said Timmy. "You're my hero!" Max felt proud and happy that he could help his friend. From that day on, Max learned that sharing was important and that being a hero felt good.

+
+"What's wrong, Lily?" her mom asked.
+
+"I'm worried that my angel is too heavy," Lily replied.
+
+Her mom picked up the angel and said, "Let's weigh it and see." They went to the kitchen and put the angel on the scale. It weighed just a few ounces.
+
+"It's not too heavy, Lily," her mom said. "You can still carry it around with you wherever you go."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged her angel tightly. "I'm so happy," she said. "I love my angel."
+Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to play outside in the sunshine. One day, he fell down and hurt his knee. It was bleeding and he felt sad.
+
+His mom came to him and asked, "What happened, Timmy?"
+
+"I fell down and my knee hurts," Timmy said.
+
+"Don't worry, I have a yellow band-aid that will heal your boo-boo," his mom said as she pulled out a file to smooth the edges of the band-aid.
+
+Timmy smiled and felt better. "Thank you, Mommy," he said.
+
+"You're welcome, Timmy. Now let's go back outside and play some more," his mom said as they walked hand in hand.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. One day, she went for a walk with her mommy in the park. The sun was shining and the birds were singing. Suddenly, Lily saw her shadow on the ground. 
+
+"Mommy, look! I have a shadow!" Lily said excitedly. 
+
+"Yes, dear. Everyone has a shadow when the sun is shining," her mommy replied. 
+
+Lily looked at her shadow and noticed something different. "Mommy, why is my shadow big when I put my arms up and small when I put them down?" she asked. 
+
+"That's because your shadow shows how big or small you are. When you put your arms up, you make your shadow bigger. When you put them down, your shadow gets smaller," her mommy explained. 
+
+Lily was amazed by her shadow and kept playing with it until it was time to go home. From that day on, Lily loved to show her shadow to everyone she met.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to play outside in the garden. One day, she saw a spider crawling on the ground. "Hello, little spider," she said. "I wonder where you are going?"
+
+The spider didn't answer, but Lily followed it anyway. They went through the grass and over some rocks. Finally, the spider stopped on a leaf. "Look, Lily," said the spider. "This leaf is delicious! I like to eat it."
+
+Lily was surprised. She didn't know spiders could eat leaves. "That's amazing!" she said. "I never knew that. Thank you for showing me, little spider." And with that, Lily went back inside, happy to have learned something new.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She went to visit her grandma. When she arrived, her grandma gave her a present. 
+
+Lily was so happy and wanted to open it right away. She asked her grandma, "Can I open it now?" 
+
+Her grandma said, "Yes, you can. But first, you need to unpack it." 
+
+Lily quickly unpacked the present and saw that it was a toy robot. She was so excited to play with it, but then she saw that one of the wires was loose. 
+
+She told her grandma, "The robot is broken. The wire doesn't fit." 
+
+Her grandma smiled and said, "Don't worry, we can fix it together." They worked together to fix the wire and soon the robot was working perfectly. Lily was very happy and thanked her grandma for helping her.

+One day, Lily's friend Tommy came over to play. They were having a great time until Lily's toy crown went missing. Lily was very upset and didn't know what to do. Tommy suggested they look for it together.
+
+They searched high and low, but couldn't find the crown anywhere. Just when they were about to give up, Tommy had an idea. He remembered that Lily's little brother had been playing with it earlier. They went to ask him and sure enough, he had hidden it under the couch.

+
+Her mommy told her that sometimes things don't go as planned, but they could pray for better luck next time. They held hands and said a little prayer. The next batch of cookies turned out perfect and Lily was very happy. She learned that sometimes you just have to be patient and pray for things to work out.

+
+Lily thought that was a great idea. The next day, she saw the same bird in the park. She raised her hand and said, "Excuse me, Mr. Bird. Would you like to share my gum with me?"

+
+"Of course, sweetie," her mom replied. "But be careful and take it easy. We don't want anyone to get hurt." 
+
+Lily nodded and they rushed to the furniture store. They looked at many couches, chairs, and tables. Lily found a pink chair that she loved and said, "Mommy, can we get this one?" 
+

+
+Lily was so happy and hugged her mom. They took the chair home and Lily sat in it all day, feeling very proud of herself.

+
+One afternoon, Lily was playing outside when she saw a man in a uniform. "Who are you?" she asked. "I'm a police officer," he replied. "I'm here to take someone to jail." 
+
+Lily was confused. "What's jail?" she asked. The police officer explained that it's a place where people go when they do something wrong. Lily thought about her sunflower and how it grew with love and care. "Why can't people just grow like my sunflower?" she asked. 
+
+The police officer smiled. "That's a great question, Lily. Maybe if we all took care of each other like you take care of your garden, we wouldn't need jails." Lily felt happy that she could make a difference, even if it was just by growing flowers. And she knew that love and care were not cheap, but they were the most important things in the world.
+Once upon a time, there was a king who wore a shiny crown. He was very proud of his crown and loved to show it off to everyone. One day, a silly monkey came to the king and said, "Your crown is stupid. It doesn't make you special."
+
+The king was angry and said, "No, my crown is beautiful and important. You don't know what you're talking about." The monkey just nodded and said, "Okay, okay. I'm sorry."
+
+But the king couldn't stop thinking about what the monkey had said. He wondered if maybe his crown wasn't as special as he thought. So, he asked his wise advisor for advice.

+

+
+But the stick was broken. It snapped in half and fell to the ground.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Ben cried. "Our snowman's arm is broken!"
+
+They looked at the snowman and felt sad. He had a hat, a nose, a scarf, but no arms.
+
+Then they heard a voice.
+
+"Hello, children. Do you need some help?"
+
+They turned around and saw a man with a big smile. He was carrying a shovel and a bag.
+
+"Who are you?" Lily asked.
+
+"I'm the snowman maker. I go around and fix broken snowmen. Do you want me to fix yours?" the man said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and smiled. They watched as the man took out two new sticks from his bag and dug two holes in the snow. He put the sticks in the holes and made two arms for the snowman.
+
+"Thank you, thank you!" Lily and Ben said.
+
+"You're welcome, you're welcome!" the man said. "And here's a little gift for you."

+Lily and Ben liked to play outside when it was mild. They put on their boots and coats and ran to the park. There they saw many puddles from the rain. They jumped and splashed and laughed.
+
+But then Lily saw a big puddle that looked different. It was shiny and sparkly and had a rainbow on it. She wanted to see it closer. She ran to the puddle and stepped in it.
+
+But something strange happened. Lily did not feel the water on her feet. She felt like she was falling. She looked up and saw Ben's face get smaller and smaller. She screamed.
+
+Ben heard Lily scream and ran to the puddle. But he did not see Lily. He only saw the shiny water and the rainbow. He was scared. He called Lily's name, but there was no answer. He thought Lily had disappeared.
+
+He did not know what to do. He wanted to help Lily, but he did not want to disappear too. He looked around and saw a man with a hat and a coat. He ran to the man and tugged his sleeve. He said, "Please, mister, help me. My sister disappeared in the puddle."
+Anna liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had long pink hair and a pink dress. Anna liked to brush Lily's hair and make her look pretty.
+
+One day, Anna and Lily went outside to play in the garden. Anna saw a big hole in the ground. It was a pit. Anna thought it would be fun to put Lily in the pit and pretend she was a princess in a castle. She said, "Lily, you will like the pit. It is your castle. I will be your friend and visit you."
+
+Anna put Lily in the pit and ran to get some flowers. She wanted to improve Lily's castle and make it more pretty. She picked some yellow and purple flowers and ran back to the pit. But when she got there, she saw something bad. A big dog was in the pit too. It had Lily in its mouth. It was biting Lily's pink hair and dress. Anna was scared and sad. She shouted, "No, no, no! Bad dog! Give me back Lily!"
+
+The dog heard Anna and dropped Lily. It ran away, barking. Anna ran to the pit and picked up Lily. She saw that Lily was dirty and torn. Her pink hair and dress were ruined. Anna cried and hugged Lily. She said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't mean to hurt you. I wanted to make you happy. I love you, Lily."
+
+Anna took Lily inside and washed her. She tried to fix her hair and dress, but they were still bad. She asked her mom for help. Her mom said, "Don't worry, Anna. We can improve Lily. We can get her some new hair and a new dress. We can make her pink again. She will be fine."
+
+Anna smiled and thanked her mom. She said, "Thank you, mom. You are the best. I will be more careful with Lily. I will not put her in the pit again. I will keep her safe and clean. I love you, mom."
+Lila and Tom were going to visit their grandma. They had to pack their bags with clothes and toys. Lila was smart. She packed a sweater, a hat, and a scarf. She knew it was cold at grandma's house. She also packed her favorite book and her teddy bear. Tom was not smart. He packed a swimsuit, a ball, and a kite. He thought it was summer at grandma's house. He did not pack any warm clothes or books.
+
+When they got to grandma's house, Lila was happy. She hugged grandma and helped her make cocoa. She read her book and played with her teddy bear. She drank the cocoa and felt warm and cozy. Tom was sad. He shivered in his swimsuit and could not play with his ball or his kite. He did not like the cocoa and felt cold and bored. He wished he had packed like Lila.
+
+Grandma saw that Tom was sad. She gave him a sweater, a hat, and a scarf. She also gave him a book and a puzzle. She told him that he should pack smart next time. She said that he should think about where he was going and what he would need. She said that he should also pack something to read and something to learn. She said that reading and learning were fun and good for him.
+
+Tom thanked grandma and put on the warm clothes. He drank the cocoa and felt better. He looked at the book and the puzzle. He decided to try them. He found out that he liked them. He learned new words and new things. He played with Lila and grandma. He had fun and felt happy.
+
+Tom learned a lesson. He learned that he should pack smart. He learned that he should think ahead and be prepared. He learned that he should read and learn. He learned that he would have more fun and be happier that way. He told Lila and grandma that he was sorry for being silly. He said that he would pack smart next time. Lila and grandma smiled and hugged him. They said that they were proud of him. They said that they loved him.
+Anna loved her bear very much. She hugged him every night and took him everywhere. But one day, her bear got very dirty and torn. Anna's mom said she had to replace him with a new bear.
+
+Anna did not want a new bear. She cried and said, "No, no, no! I want my old bear! He is my best friend!"
+
+Her mom said, "I know, sweetie, but your old bear is too old and dirty. He might make you sick. Look, I have a new bear for you. He is soft and clean and has a big smile. He will be your new friend."
+
+Anna looked at the new bear. He was nice, but he was not her old bear. She felt sad and angry. She threw the new bear on the floor and ran to her room.
+
+That night, Anna could not sleep. She missed her old bear. She heard a soft knock on her door. It was her mom. She had her old bear in her arms.
+
+She said, "I'm sorry, Anna. I was wrong. I should not have tried to replace your old bear. He is very special to you. I fixed him and washed him. He is still your old bear, but he is also new and clean. Do you want him back?"
+
+Anna smiled and hugged her mom and her old bear. She said, "Thank you, mom. I love you and I love my old bear. He is my best friend."
+
+Her mom said, "I love you too, Anna. And I love your new bear. Can I keep him?"
+
+Anna nodded and said, "Yes, mom. You can keep him. He can be your friend too."
+
+They laughed and cuddled with their bears. They felt happy and peaceful. They learned that you cannot replace someone you love, but you can share your love with others.
+Tom and Ben were brothers who liked to play with toy soldiers. They had many soldiers of different colors and shapes. They would make them fight each other and pretend they were in a war. They were eager to observe who would win and who would lose.
+
+One day, they saw a real war on TV. They saw big planes, loud guns, and smoke. They saw people fall down and cry. They saw buildings break and fire. They thought it looked exciting and fun. They wanted to see more.
+
+They asked their mom if they could go outside and observe the war. Their mom said no. She said war was not a game. She said war was scary and sad. She said war hurt many people and animals. She said they should stay inside and be safe.
+
+But Tom and Ben did not listen. They sneaked out of the house when their mom was busy. They ran to the street where they heard the noise. They saw soldiers and tanks and helicopters. They saw flags and signs and banners. They thought it looked cool and brave. They wanted to get closer.
+
+They crossed the road without looking. They did not see the car that was coming fast. They did not hear the horn that was honking loud. They did not feel the brakes that were screeching hard. They only felt a big bump and a lot of pain. Then they felt nothing.
+
+Their mom found them later. She saw their bodies and their blood. She saw their toy soldiers and their smiles. She cried and cried and cried. She wished they had listened. She wished they had stayed inside. She wished they had known that war was not a game.
+
+The moral of the story is: War is not a game. War is dangerous and cruel. War can take away your life and your happiness. You should listen to your mom and be safe. You should not be eager to observe what you do not understand. You should be grateful for what you have and not want what you do not need.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big tree with red apples. They want to pick some apples.
+
+"Let's pick some apples!" Lily says. "They look yummy!"
+
+"OK!" Ben says. "But how do we reach them? They are too high!"
+
+Lily has an idea. She sees a big stick on the ground. She picks up the stick. She tries to poke the apples with the stick.
+
+"Look, Ben! I can make the apples fall!" Lily says. She pokes an apple. The apple falls to the ground.
+
+"Good job, Lily!" Ben says. He runs to get the apple. He picks up the apple. He takes a bite. "Mmm, it's sweet!"
+
+Lily pokes another apple. The apple falls to the ground. But before Ben can get it, a dog runs to the apple. The dog picks up the apple in its mouth. The dog runs away with the apple.
+
+"Hey, that's our apple!" Ben says. He is mad. He chases the dog. "Give it back, dog!"
+
+Lily is scared. She does not like dogs. She drops the stick. She runs to Ben. She grabs his hand.
+
+"Ben, stop!" Lily says. "The dog is big and fast. You can't catch it. Let it go. We have another apple. We can share it."
+
+Ben stops. He looks at Lily. He looks at the dog. The dog is far away. The dog is happy. It wags its tail. It eats the apple.
+
+Ben is sad. He likes apples. He wanted two apples. But he likes Lily more. He is glad she is his friend. He smiles at Lily.
+
+"OK, Lily. You are right. The dog can have that apple. We can share this apple. You are a good friend." Ben says.
+
+Lily is happy. She is glad Ben is not mad. She is glad he is her friend. She smiles at Ben.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend, too. Let's share this apple. It's big enough for both of us." Lily says.
+
+They sit under the tree. They share the apple. They enjoy the apple. They are happy. They are friends.
+Lily and Tom are best friends. They like to play in the park with their toys. One day, they find a big box under a tree. It is brown and has a red ribbon on it.
+
+"Wow, what is this?" Lily asks.
+
+"Maybe it is a present for someone," Tom says.
+
+"Or maybe it is a secret," Lily says. "Let's open it and see."
+
+They try to open the box, but it is too heavy. They pull and push, but it does not move.
+
+"We need to lift it," Tom says. "Maybe there is something inside that makes it heavy."
+
+They both grab the ribbon and try to lift the box. It is very hard, but they do not give up. They lift and lift, until the box is in the air.
+
+"Yay, we did it!" Lily cheers.
+
+They look inside the box and see a lovely surprise. There are many balloons of different colors. They are shiny and bright. They fill the air with joy.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing!" Tom says.
+
+"Maybe someone left this for us," Lily says. "Maybe they wanted to make us happy."
+
+They take out the balloons and play with them. They throw them, catch them, and make funny noises. They laugh and have fun. They share the balloons with other children in the park. They make new friends.
+
+They are very happy. They think the box was a wonderful secret. They thank the person who left it for them, even if they do not know who it is. They hug each other and smile. They are best friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing with dough in the kitchen. They liked to make shapes and animals with the dough. Lily made a dough cat and Ben made a dough dog. They put their dough pets on a tray and left them on the table.
+
+But they did not know that Mom had turned on the oven to bake a cake. The oven was very hot and the dough pets were very close to it. Soon, the dough pets started to grow and grow. They became huge and fluffy and filled the whole tray. They pushed and bumped each other and tried to get out of the tray.
+
+Lily and Ben heard a loud noise and ran back to the kitchen. They saw their dough pets had turned into big bread monsters. The bread monsters were angry and hungry. They jumped off the tray and chased Lily and Ben around the kitchen. Lily and Ben screamed and ran away. They tried to hide behind the chairs and the fridge, but the bread monsters found them.
+
+Mom heard the commotion and came to the kitchen. She saw the bread monsters and was very surprised and scared. She grabbed a broom and tried to sweep them away, but the bread monsters were too strong and fast. They knocked Mom down and bit her legs and arms. Mom cried and called for help.
+
+Lily and Ben were very sorry and sad. They wished they had not played with the dough. They wished they had listened to Mom and put their dough pets away. They wished they could make the bread monsters go away. But it was too late. The bread monsters had taken over the kitchen and there was no one to save them. The end.
+Tim and Sue were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big red car that they could ride in. They always shared the car and took turns driving it.
+
+One day, their grandma came to visit. She brought them a new toy: a shiny blue bike. Tim and Sue were very enthusiastic. They thanked their grandma and ran to the bike. They both wanted to try it first.
+
+"No, I want to go first!" Tim said.
+
+"No, me!" Sue said.
+
+They started to fight over the bike. They pulled and pushed and shouted. Their grandma was sad. She tried to calm them down.
+
+"Stop, children! You can both have a turn. Why don't you play with your car while you wait?" she said.
+
+But Tim and Sue did not listen. They kept fighting. They did not care about their car. They left it in the sun.
+
+The sun was very hot. It made the car melt. The wheels became soft. The paint became sticky. The car was spoiled.
+
+Tim and Sue finally stopped fighting. They saw their car. They were shocked. They cried.
+
+"Oh no! Our car! What have we done?" Tim said.
+
+"We were so silly! We ruined our car!" Sue said.
+
+They ran to their grandma. They hugged her. They said they were sorry.
+
+But it was too late. Their car was gone. They had no car to play with. They only had the bike. But they did not feel like riding it. They felt sad and ashamed.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not fight over things. Share and be happy. Do not spoil what you have.
+Tim and Liz were friends who liked to play in the park. They liked to run, swing, slide and climb. But their favorite thing was to number the coins in the fountain. They would sit on the edge and count how many coins they could see in the water.
+
+One day, they decided to make a game out of it. They took turns to number the coins and see who could find more. Tim went first and said, "I see one, two, three, four, five coins!" Liz nodded and said, "That's good, Tim. Now it's my turn." She looked carefully and said, "I see one, two, three, four, five, six coins!"
+
+Tim was surprised and said, "Wow, Liz, you are good at this. How did you find six coins?" Liz smiled and said, "I saw one coin behind the flower. It was shiny and pretty." Tim said, "That's clever, Liz. You are the winner of the game. You are successful at numbering the coins."
+
+Liz was happy and said, "Thank you, Tim. You are a good friend. Do you want to play again?" Tim said, "Yes, I do. Maybe I can find more coins next time." They laughed and hugged and continued to play. They had fun numbering the coins in the fountain.
+Tom and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw a big pond with many birds. They saw ducks, geese and swans. Tom liked the swans. They were white and had long necks. He wanted to touch one.
+
+"Can I touch a swan, Mom?" Tom asked.
+
+"No, Tom, you can't. Swans are not nice. They can bite and push you. They don't like people to touch them. You can look at them, but stay away from them," Mom said.
+
+But Tom did not listen. He saw a swan that was close to the edge of the pond. He ran to it and tried to touch its feathers. The swan did not like that. It hissed and flapped its wings. It pushed Tom with its beak. Tom fell down and cried.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! The swan pushed me! It hurt me!" Tom shouted.
+
+Mom ran to Tom and picked him up. She hugged him and checked his arm. It was red and had a small mark.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom. Are you okay?" Mom asked.
+
+"It hurts, Mom. The swan was not nice. It was mean," Tom said.
+
+"I know, Tom. I told you to stay away from the swans. They are not nice. They are wild animals. They don't like people to touch them. You have to be careful and listen to me," Mom said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom. I will listen to you next time. I don't like swans anymore. I like ducks. They are nice. Can we feed the ducks?" Tom asked.
+
+"Okay, Tom. We can feed the ducks. But only with the bread that I have. Don't touch the ducks either. They might bite you too. And be nice to them. Don't throw the bread. Break it into small pieces and drop it gently," Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They followed Mom to the other side of the pond. They saw some ducks that were swimming and quacking. They fed the ducks with the bread. The ducks were nice. They ate the bread and came closer. They did not bite or push. Tom and Lily smiled and laughed. They had fun with the ducks. They forgot about the swan.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a new thing in the park. It is big and red and has wheels. It looks like a car, but it is not a car.
+
+"Wow, what is that?" Anna asks.
+
+"I don't know. Let's go and see," Ben says.
+
+They run to the thing. They see a man inside. He wears a blue hat and a green suit. He has a big camera and a microphone.
+
+"Hello, kids. I am a reporter. I am here to make a story about the park," the man says.
+
+"What is a reporter?" Anna asks.
+
+"A reporter is someone who tells people what is happening in the world. I use my camera and my microphone to do that," the man says.
+
+"Can we see your camera and your microphone?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. They are very expensive and delicate," the man says.
+
+He shows them his camera and his microphone. Anna and Ben are very curious. They touch the buttons and the wires. They look at the screen and the speaker.
+
+"Can we wear your hat and your suit?" Anna asks.
+
+The man laughs.
+
+"Sorry, kids. They are too big for you. And they are part of my uniform. I have to wear them when I work," the man says.
+
+"Can we help you with your work?" Ben asks.
+
+The man thinks.
+
+"Well, maybe you can. Do you want to be my assistants?" the man asks.
+
+Anna and Ben nod.
+
+"Okay, then. Follow me. I will show you what to do. But you have to be quiet and not nosy. We don't want to bother the people in the park," the man says.
+
+He takes them to a bench. He sets up his camera and his microphone. He tells them to sit next to him and watch.
+
+"Are you ready, kids?" the man asks.
+
+Anna and Ben smile.
+
+"Yes, we are ready," they say.
+
+The man turns on his camera and his microphone. He looks at the screen and speaks.
+
+"Hello, everyone. This is Tom, the reporter. I am here in the park with my two assistants, Anna and Ben. We are going to tell you what is happening in this beautiful place. Stay tuned for our story."
+Ben and Mia like to travel with their mom and dad. They go to many places and see many things. Sometimes they travel by car, sometimes by plane, sometimes by train. They always have fun.
+
+One day, they travel to the beach. They see the big water and the sand. They are happy. They want to play. They run to the water and splash. They make sand castles and dig holes. They find shells and rocks.
+
+"Look, I found a big shell!" Ben says. He shows Mia his shell. It is pink and shiny.
+
+"That's nice, but mine is bigger!" Mia says. She shows Ben her shell. It is yellow and smooth.
+
+They are competitive. They want to have the best shells. They look for more shells. They compare their shells. They argue.
+
+"Stop, stop!" Mom says. She comes to them. She has a bottle in her hand. "Do you know what this is?" She asks.
+
+They shake their heads. They do not know.
+
+"This is salt," Mom says. "It comes from the water. It makes the water taste bad. But it is good for other things. We use it to cook and to make things last longer. Do you want to try some?"
+
+She opens the bottle and pours some salt on her hand. She lets Ben and Mia taste it. They lick their fingers.
+
+"Yuck!" Ben says. He makes a face. "It is too strong!"
+
+"Yuck!" Mia says. She makes a face too. "It is too bitter!"
+
+They do not like salt. They spit and drink some water.
+
+Mom laughs. "It's okay, you don't have to like it. But it is interesting, right? It is part of nature. Just like the shells. They are all different and beautiful. You don't have to fight over them. You can share them and enjoy them together."
+
+Ben and Mia look at each other. They feel sorry. They hug and say sorry.
+
+"Can we trade some shells?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, let's trade some shells," Mia says.
+
+They trade some shells. They are happy. They are not competitive anymore. They play and have fun. They love to travel.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the pool. They have a game. They dive and find things. They put the things in a basket.
+
+One day, they find a bottle. The bottle has a paper inside. Anna says, "What is this?" Ben says, "Maybe it is a message. Let's open it." They open the bottle and take out the paper. They look at the paper.
+
+The paper has a picture. The picture is a fish. The fish has a big smile. The fish says, "Hello, I am Fred. I am a funny fish. I like to swim and make jokes. Do you want to be my friends?"
+
+Anna and Ben laugh. They think the fish is funny. They say, "Yes, we want to be your friends, Fred. You are a funny fish. We like to swim and make jokes too." They write on the paper, "Hello, Fred. We are Anna and Ben. We are your friends. You are a funny fish. We like you." They put the paper back in the bottle. They dive and put the bottle back in the water.
+
+They hope Fred will find the bottle and read their message. They think Fred will be happy. They are happy too. They have a new friend. They keep playing in the pool. They have fun.
+Lila was a gifted girl. She could sing very well, and draw beautiful pictures. She liked to share her songs and pictures with her friends in the village. They always smiled and clapped when they heard her voice or saw her art.
+
+One day, a big man came to the village. He said he was a teacher, and he wanted to find gifted children. He said he could take them to a special school, where they could learn more and become famous. He asked the children to show him what they could do.
+
+Lila was curious and excited. She wanted to go to the special school and learn more. She thought maybe she could make her friends and family proud. She went to the big man and said, "Hello, I am Lila. I can sing and draw. Do you want to see?"
+
+The big man nodded and smiled. He said, "Yes, Lila, I want to see. Show me your gift." Lila sang a song that she made up, and then showed him a picture that she drew of her village. The big man clapped and said, "Wow, Lila, you are very gifted. You have a beautiful voice and a great talent. You should come with me to the special school. You will be very happy there."
+
+Lila felt happy and proud. She said, "Thank you, big man. I want to go with you. But can I say goodbye to my friends and family first? I love them very much."
+
+The big man frowned and said, "No, Lila, you cannot say goodbye. You have to go with me now. There is no time to waste. You have a big future ahead of you. You don't need your friends and family anymore. They will only hold you back."
+
+Lila felt scared and sad. She said, "No, big man, I don't want to go with you. I need my friends and family. They love me and support me. They are my home. I don't want to leave them. Please let me go."
+
+The big man got angry and said, "No, Lila, you have to go with me. You are mine now. You have no choice. Come with me, or I will make you." He grabbed Lila's arm and tried to pull her away.
+
+Lila screamed and cried. She said, "Help, help, someone help me. The big man is trying to take me away. He is bad. He is mean. He doesn't care about me. He only wants my gift. Help, help, please help me."
+
+Lila's friends and family heard her scream. They ran to her and saw the big man. They were shocked and angry. They said, "Let go of Lila. She is our friend. She is our family. She doesn't want to go with you. She wants to stay with us. You are bad. You are mean. You don't care about her. You only want her gift. Go away, go away, leave her alone."
+
+They pushed and kicked the big man. They freed Lila from his grip. They hugged and kissed her. They said, "Lila, we love you. We are proud of you. You are gifted, but you are also kind and brave. You don't need to go to the special school. You can learn and grow here, with us. You are our home. You are our gift."
+
+Lila smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you, thank you. I love you too. I am sorry I wanted to go with the big man. He lied to me. He scared me. He hurt me. He is not a teacher. He is a thief. He wanted to steal my gift. But you saved me. You are my friends. You are my family. You are my teachers. You are my heroes."
+
+They all cheered and said, "Lila, Lila, Lila. You are our friend. You are our family. You are our student. You are our star." They sang and danced and celebrated. They forgot about the big man, who ran away, ashamed and afraid. They were happy and grateful. They were a village. They were a gift.
+Anna and Ben like to pretend. They pretend to be animals, or pirates, or superheroes. They use their hands to make sounds and shapes. They have a lot of fun.
+
+One day, they pretend to be explorers. They look for rare things in the garden. They find a shiny rock, a feather, and a snail. They put them in their pockets.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a rare flower!" Anna says. She shows him a purple flower with yellow spots. "It smells nice. Do you want to smell it?"
+
+Ben nods. He leans over to smell the flower. But he sneezes. He is allergic to flowers. He drops the flower and rubs his nose.
+
+"Sorry, Anna, I can't smell your rare flower. It makes me sneeze. But it is very pretty. Can I see your other rare things?" Ben asks.
+
+Anna smiles. She takes out her rock, her feather, and her snail. She gives them to Ben. He looks at them and smiles.
+
+"Wow, Anna, you have a lot of rare things. They are very cool. Can I show you my rare things?" Ben asks.
+
+Anna nods. She takes back her things and puts them in her pocket. She waits for Ben to show her his rare things.
+
+Ben takes out his hand. He opens it and shows Anna. There is nothing in his hand.
+
+"Ben, where are your rare things?" Anna asks.
+
+Ben grins. He says, "This is my rare thing. My hand. It is the only one like it in the world. No one else has a hand like mine. It can do many things. It can wave, clap, hold, point, and tickle. See?" He tickles Anna with his hand.
+
+Anna laughs. She says, "You are right, Ben. Your hand is a rare thing. And it is very funny. But you know what? I have a rare thing too. My hand. It is the only one like it in the world. No one else has a hand like mine. It can do many things too. It can hug, high-five, draw, write, and poke. See?" She pokes Ben with her hand.
+
+Ben laughs. He says, "You are right, Anna. Your hand is a rare thing too. And it is very smart. But you know what? We have something else that is rare. Our friendship. It is the only one like it in the world. No one else has a friendship like ours. It can do many things. It can share, play, pretend, learn, and love. See?" He hugs Anna with his hand.
+
+Anna hugs him back. She says, "You are right, Ben. Our friendship is a rare thing too. And it is very special. I am glad we are friends. And I am glad we like to pretend. Let's pretend some more. What do you want to pretend now?"
+
+Ben thinks. He says, "Let's pretend we are rare birds. We can fly, sing, and nest. We can use our hands to make wings and beaks. Come on, Anna, let's pretend!"
+
+Anna agrees. She says, "OK, Ben, let's pretend. Let's be rare birds. Let's fly, sing, and nest. Let's use our hands to make wings and beaks. Come on, Ben, let's pretend!"
+
+They flap their hands and make bird sounds. They fly around the garden. They pretend to be rare birds. They have a lot of fun.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play together every morning. They wake up when the sun is bright and say hello to their mom and dad.
+
+One morning, they decide to play hide and seek in the garden. Ben counts to ten and then looks for Lily. He sees her pink dress behind a big bush. He runs to catch her, but he slips on the wet grass. He falls down and hurts his knee.
+
+"Ouch!" he cries. "Lily, help me!"
+
+Lily hears Ben and comes out of her hiding spot. She sees Ben on the ground and runs to him. She gives him a hug and says, "Don't cry, Ben. I'm here. Let me see your knee."
+
+She looks at his knee and sees a small cut. She says, "It's not bad, Ben. Just a little boo-boo. Mom can make it better. Come on, let's go inside."
+
+She helps Ben stand up and they walk to the house. Mom sees them and says, "What happened, my loves?"
+
+Lily tells Mom what happened and shows her Ben's knee. Mom says, "Oh, poor Ben. Let me clean your wound and put a band-aid on it. There, all done. How do you feel?"
+
+Ben says, "I feel better, Mom. Thank you. And thank you, Lily. You are a good sister."
+
+Lily smiles and says, "You are welcome, Ben. You are a good brother. I'm sorry you slipped."
+
+Ben says, "It's okay, Lily. It was an accident. Do you want to play some more?"
+
+Lily says, "Yes, Ben. But let's be careful. We don't want to slip again."
+
+They hug Mom and go back to the garden. They play some more, but they watch out for the wet grass. They have a cheerful morning.
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play together, but sometimes they also fought. One day, they wanted to take a bath, but there was only one bottle of shampoo left. Lily grabbed the shampoo and said, "This is mine! I saw it first!"
+
+Max was angry and said, "No, it's mine! I need it more! You have short hair and I have long hair!"
+
+They both pulled the shampoo and tried to take it from each other. They did not listen to their mom, who told them to share and be nice. They were very impatient and rude.
+
+Their mom was tired of their noise and said, "That's enough! If you can't share the shampoo, you can't use it at all. I will take it away and you will have to wash your hair with water only."
+
+Lily and Max did not like that idea. They both loved the shampoo, because it smelled like strawberries and made bubbles. They did not want to have plain water on their hair. They looked at each other and felt sorry.
+
+They said to their mom, "We're sorry, mom. We don't want to fight. Can we please have the shampoo back? We will share it and take turns."
+
+Their mom smiled and said, "That's very good of you. I'm glad you learned your lesson. You can have the shampoo back, but only if you promise to be kind and respectful to each other."
+
+Lily and Max nodded and hugged their mom. They said, "We promise, mom. Thank you for the shampoo. We love you."
+
+They took the shampoo and went to the bathroom. They poured some shampoo on their hands and rubbed it on their hair. They made bubbles and laughed. They were happy and had fun. They did not fight anymore.
+Ben likes to show his toys to his friends. He has a big truck, a soft bear and a red fire. The fire is not real, it is a toy. It has a button that makes it light up and make noise. Ben thinks it is fun to play with the fire.
+
+One day, Ben goes to the park with his mom and his fire. He sees some other kids playing on the slide and the swings. He wants to show them his fire. He runs to them with his fire in his hand. He pushes the button and the fire lights up and makes noise.
+
+The other kids are scared of the fire. They think it is real and it will burn them. They scream and run away from Ben. Ben does not understand why they are scared. He thinks they are silly. He chases them with his fire and laughs.
+
+His mom sees what is happening. She is not happy. She calls Ben and tells him to stop. She says he is being naughty and he should not scare the other kids with his fire. She says the fire is only a toy and he should not pretend it is real. She says he should be nice and share his toys with the other kids.
+
+Ben feels sad. He did not mean to scare the other kids. He just wanted to show them his fire. He says he is sorry to his mom and to the other kids. He asks them if they want to play with his fire. He says he will show them how it works and that it is not real. He says he has other toys too, like his truck and his bear.
+
+The other kids are still a little scared, but they are also curious. They come closer to Ben and his fire. They see that it is a toy and that it does not hurt. They say they are sorry too and that they want to play with Ben. They take turns pushing the button and making the fire light up and make noise. They also play with his truck and his bear. They have fun together.
+
+Ben is happy. He has made some new friends. He likes to show his toys to his friends. He also likes to play with their toys. He learns that sharing is good and that scaring is bad. He says thank you to his mom and to his friends. He says he likes the park and he wants to come back again. He is a good boy.
+Lily loved her violin. It was orange and shiny and made nice sounds. She played it every day with her mom and dad. They sang songs and clapped their hands.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big mud puddle in the park. She wanted to jump in it and splash. She ran to the puddle and left her violin on the grass. She forgot to take it with her.
+
+"Look, mom, look, dad, I'm a frog!" she said, hopping and croaking in the mud. "Ribbit, ribbit!"
+
+Mom and dad smiled and watched her. They did not see the dog that came to the park. The dog was big and brown and liked to chew things. He saw the orange violin on the grass. He thought it was a toy. He ran to the violin and grabbed it with his teeth.
+
+"Oh no, Lily, your violin!" mom shouted, pointing to the dog. "He's going to ruin it!"
+
+Lily stopped jumping and looked at the dog. She saw her violin in his mouth. She felt sad and scared. She loved her violin. She did not want the dog to break it.
+
+"Bad dog, bad dog, drop it, drop it!" she yelled, running to the dog. She tried to take her violin back, but the dog was stronger. He shook his head and growled.
+
+Mom and dad ran to help Lily. They called the dog's owner, who was nearby. He came and took the dog away. He said he was sorry and gave Lily a hug.
+
+Lily looked at her violin. It was dirty and wet and had bite marks. She cried and hugged her violin. She was sorry she left it on the grass.
+
+Mom and dad wiped her tears and washed her violin. They said it was still good and could be fixed. They said they were proud of her for trying to save it. They said they loved her and her violin.
+
+Lily smiled and thanked them. She said she loved them and her violin too. She said she would never leave it on the grass again. She said she would play it every day and make it happy. She said she learned a lesson. She said she was a good frog and a good violinist.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big jug on a table near the swings. The jug was blue and shiny, and it had a picture of a lion on it.
+
+"Wow, look at that jug!" Lily said. "It is so pretty. I want to buy it."
+
+Ben was not so sure. He saw a sign on the table that said "Do not touch". He also saw a man sitting on a bench, reading a book. The man looked angry and scary.
+
+"Maybe we should not buy it," Ben said. "The sign says no. And the man might be the owner. He might get mad at us."
+
+Lily did not listen to Ben. She wanted the jug very much. She ran to the table and grabbed the jug. She tried to lift it, but it was too heavy. She dropped it on the ground, and it broke into pieces. The lion picture was gone.
+
+The man heard the noise and looked up. He saw Lily and Ben standing near the broken jug. He was very mad. He shouted at them.
+
+"Hey, you kids! What did you do to my jug? That was my special jug. It was very old and expensive. You have to pay for it!"
+
+Lily and Ben were fearful. They did not have any money. They did not know what to do. They started to cry.
+
+"Please, mister, we are sorry," Lily said. "We did not mean to break your jug. We just wanted to buy it. It was so pretty."
+
+The man did not care. He got up and walked towards them. He looked like he wanted to hurt them.
+
+Lily and Ben were very scared. They wished they had listened to Ben. They wished they had not touched the jug. They wished they could run away.
+Jen and Sam were playing with their toy animals in the living room. They had a lion, a bear, a monkey, and a fish. Jen liked the fish best, because it was shiny and blue. Sam liked the lion best, because it was big and loud.
+
+"Look, my fish can swim in the water," Jen said, putting the fish in a bowl. "It has a scale on its skin. Do you know what a scale is?"
+
+Sam nodded. "Yes, I know. A scale is a small, hard thing that covers the fish. Some animals have scales, and some have fur, like the lion and the bear. And some have hair, like the monkey and us."
+
+Jen smiled. "You are smart, Sam. Do you want to play a game with me? We can pretend that the fish is a dragon, and the lion is a knight. The knight has to save the monkey from the dragon."
+
+Sam liked games. He agreed. "OK, let's play. But where is the dragon's cave?"
+
+Jen looked around. She saw a dark corner behind the sofa. "There, that can be the dragon's cave. It is dark and scary. The dragon likes to hide there and wait for the monkey."
+
+Sam picked up the lion and the monkey. He made the lion roar and the monkey squeak. He moved them closer to the dark corner. Jen picked up the fish and made it flap its tail. She moved it behind the sofa.
+
+"Help, help!" Sam made the monkey say. "The dragon has me! It wants to eat me!"
+
+"Roar!" Jen made the fish say. "I am the dragon! I have scales and fire! You are my lunch!"
+
+"Stop, dragon!" Sam made the lion say. "I am the knight! I have fur and a sword! You cannot have the monkey! He is my friend!"
+
+"Roar!" Jen made the fish say. "You are no match for me, knight! I am stronger and faster than you! Come and fight me, if you dare!"
+
+Sam and Jen made the lion and the fish fight. They made noises and moved their toys. They had fun. They did not mention the bear, because it was sleeping on the rug. They did not want to wake it up.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and plant and water the flowers. They also liked to eat the berries that grew on the bushes. The berries were red and juicy and tasty.
+
+One day, they saw a new fence around the bushes. The fence was tall and strong and had a sign that said "Do not pick the berries". Ben and Lily were sad and angry. They wanted to eat the berries. They did not like the fence.
+
+"Who put the fence there?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe the farmer. He does not want to share the berries," Lily said.
+
+"That is not fair. The berries are for everyone. We should take the fence down," Ben said.
+
+He tried to pull the fence, but it was too hard. He tried to climb the fence, but it was too high. He tried to dig under the fence, but it was too deep. He could not get to the berries.
+
+Lily had an idea. She saw a big stick on the ground. She picked it up and gave it to Ben.
+
+"Here, use this. You can poke a hole in the fence and reach the berries," she said.
+
+Ben took the stick and poked the fence. He made a small hole and put his hand through. He grabbed a berry and pulled it out. He smiled and gave it to Lily.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are smart and brave," Lily said.
+
+She bit the berry and made a face. It was sour and bitter and yucky.
+
+"Yuck! This berry is bad. It is not tasty at all," she said.
+
+Ben tried his berry and spat it out. It was bad too.
+
+"Yuck! You are right. These berries are awful. Why did the farmer put the fence there? He can keep them," he said.
+
+They threw the berries away and ran back to their garden. They decided to eat their own flowers instead. The flowers were sweet and pretty and tasty. They did not need the fence or the berries. They were happy.
+Sam and Mia are playing in the park. They see a big dog with long hair. The dog is brown and white. The dog is friendly. He runs to Sam and Mia and wags his tail.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Sam says. He pets the dog's head. The dog licks Sam's face.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Mia says. She pets the dog's back. The dog licks Mia's hand.
+
+The dog is happy. He likes Sam and Mia. He wants to play with them. He sees a puddle of mud. He jumps into the puddle and splashes mud everywhere.
+
+"Oh no, dog!" Sam says. He is wet and dirty. He laughs.
+
+"Oh no, dog!" Mia says. She is wet and dirty. She laughs too.
+
+The dog comes out of the puddle. He shakes his body and sprays more mud. He runs to Sam and Mia and bows. He wants them to chase him.
+
+"Come on, dog!" Sam says. He runs after the dog.
+
+"Come on, dog!" Mia says. She runs after the dog too.
+
+They have fun in the park. They run and play and laugh.
+
+But not everyone is happy. A man is sitting on a bench. He is reading a book. He is wearing a suit and a hat. He is grumpy. He does not like the noise and the mud. He does not like the dog.
+
+"Hey, you!" the man shouts. He points at the dog. "Get away from me! You are a bad dog! You are making a mess!"
+
+The dog hears the man. He stops playing. He looks at the man. He does not understand. He is not a bad dog. He is a good dog. He is having fun.
+
+The dog barks at the man. He does not like the man. He does not like his voice and his face. He does not like his suit and his hat.
+
+The man gets angry. He stands up and walks to the dog. He tries to grab the dog's collar. He wants to scold the dog.
+
+But the dog is faster. He dodges the man's hand. He jumps on the man and knocks him down. He bites the man's hat and pulls it off. He runs away with the hat.
+
+"Hey, stop!" the man yells. He chases the dog. He is wet and dirty. He is very grumpy.
+
+Sam and Mia see what happens. They are surprised. They are sorry for the man. But they are also proud of the dog. He is brave and smart. He is their friend.
+
+They run to the dog. They hug the dog. They give the dog the hat. The dog drops the hat. He licks Sam and Mia. He wags his tail.
+
+"Good dog!" Sam says. He pets the dog's head.
+
+"Good dog!" Mia says. She pets the dog's back.
+
+The dog is happy. He likes Sam and Mia. He bows to them. He wants to play more.
+
+They have fun in the park. They run and play and laugh. They forget about the man. They forget about the mud. They are happy.
+Lily was a clumsy girl. She liked to run and jump and play, but she often fell down and hurt herself. One day, she was playing with her ball in the garden, when she tripped over a rock and hit her mouth on the ground. She felt a sharp pain and saw blood on her hand. She started to cry.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, help me!" she shouted.
+
+Mommy came running and saw Lily's mouth. She saw that one of Lily's teeth was loose and wiggling.
+
+"Oh, Lily, you lost your tooth!" Mommy said. "Don't worry, it's normal. It means you are growing up. Let me clean your mouth and put a band-aid on it."
+
+Mommy took Lily inside and washed her mouth with water. She gave her a band-aid with a smiley face on it and a hug.
+
+"Look, Lily, you have a gap in your mouth now. You know what that means?" Mommy asked.
+
+Lily shook her head.
+
+"It means you can put your tooth under your pillow tonight, and the tooth fairy will come and take it. She will leave you a coin or a small gift in exchange. Isn't that exciting?" Mommy said.
+
+Lily nodded. She felt better now. She smiled and showed her gap to Mommy.
+
+"Thank you, Mommy. I love you. Can I show my tooth to Daddy and Ben?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. They will be proud of you. And you can also show it to your friends tomorrow. They will think you are brave and cool. But remember, be careful when you play. We don't want you to lose any more teeth before the tooth fairy comes, okay?" Mommy said.
+
+"Okay, Mommy. I will be careful. I want to see the tooth fairy. Maybe she will include me in her fairy stories." Lily said.
+
+Mommy laughed and kissed Lily's cheek.
+
+"Maybe she will, Lily. Maybe she will. Now, let's go and find Daddy and Ben. They are waiting for you." Mommy said.
+
+Lily took her tooth and her ball and followed Mommy. She was happy. She was a clumsy girl, but she was also a lucky girl. She had a tooth fairy, a band-aid, and a loving family. What more could she ask for?
+Tom and Mia were playing in the park. They liked to spin on the round thing that went fast. They laughed and held on tight. They felt dizzy and happy.
+
+But then the sky became dark and loud. Rain started to fall. Tom and Mia were wet and cold. They looked for a shelter to hide from the rain.
+
+They saw a big box under a tree. It looked like a good shelter. They ran to the box and crawled inside. But the box was smelly. It had old food and trash inside. Tom and Mia made a face.
+
+"Yuck! This shelter is smelly!" Tom said.
+
+"I don't like it here!" Mia said.
+
+They heard a noise outside the box. It was a dog. The dog was wet and cold too. He smelled the box and wagged his tail. He wanted to join Tom and Mia.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Tom said. "Do you want to be our friend?"
+
+The dog barked and licked Tom's face. Mia smiled and petted the dog. The dog was warm and soft.
+
+"Maybe this shelter is not so bad," Mia said. "We have a friend now."
+
+Tom and Mia hugged the dog. They felt less wet and cold. They waited for the rain to stop. They were happy.
+Sara liked to play with her dolls in her room. She had many dolls with different dresses and hair. She liked to make them talk and have tea parties. But sometimes, her brother Tom came into her room and took her dolls. He said they were silly and boring. He threw them on the floor and made them dirty.
+
+Sara did not like that. She told Tom to quit. She said he was mean and rude. She said this was her room and her dolls. She tried to take them back, but Tom was bigger and stronger. He pushed her away and laughed. He said he could do what he wanted.
+
+Sara felt sad and angry. She ran out of her room and looked for Mom. She found Mom in the kitchen. She told Mom what Tom did. She said he was bad and she wanted him to stop. Mom listened to Sara and hugged her. She said she was sorry and she would talk to Tom. She said Sara was a good girl and she loved her.
+
+Mom went to Sara's room and saw the mess. She saw Tom still playing with the dolls. She said his name in a loud voice. She said he had to quit. She said he was not nice and he hurt Sara's feelings. She said this was Sara's room and her dolls. She said he had to respect them and share them. She said he had to apologize and help clean up.
+
+Tom looked at Mom and felt scared. He knew he did wrong. He said he was sorry and he quit. He gave the dolls back to Sara and helped her pick them up. He said he would not do it again. He said he loved Sara and he wanted to be friends. Sara smiled and said thank you. She said she loved Tom and she wanted to play with him. Mom smiled and said she was proud of them. She said they were good kids and she loved them. She said they could play together in Sara's room or in Tom's room. She said they had to be kind and fair. Sara and Tom nodded and hugged Mom. They went to Tom's room and played with his cars. They had fun and they were happy.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the garden. They see a big, shiny balloon in the sky. It is red and blue and yellow.
+
+"Wow, look at the balloon!" Sara says. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"I want to touch it!" Ben says. He runs to get a stick.
+
+"No, Ben, don't do that!" Sara says. "The balloon is not for us. It is for the people inside."
+
+Ben stops and looks at Sara. "People inside? How can people be inside a balloon?"
+
+Sara points to the basket under the balloon. "See, there is a basket. People can sit in the basket and fly with the balloon. They use fire to make the balloon go up and down."
+
+Ben nods. He sees the fire and the smoke. "But how can they breathe?" he asks. "The fire takes the oxygen."
+
+Sara thinks for a moment. She remembers what her mom told her. "They have a big bottle with oxygen inside. They can use a mask to breathe from the bottle. It is like when we wash our teeth and use a straw to spit out the water."
+
+Ben makes a face. He does not like to wash his teeth. It is difficult and boring. He likes to play and have fun.
+
+"Can we play with the balloon?" he asks.
+
+Sara shakes her head. "No, Ben, we can't. The balloon is not a toy. It is a special thing. We can only watch and wave. Maybe they will wave back."
+
+Ben sighs. He puts down the stick. He and Sara watch the balloon fly away. They wave and smile. They hope the people inside are having fun.
+Sam and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they decide to race each other. They find a big hill and say, "Ready, set, go!"
+
+Sam and Tom run as fast as they can. They want to be the first to reach the top. They do not look at the flowers or the birds. They only look at the hill.
+
+But when they get to the top, they are both very tired. They also see that they are at the same spot. They have a tie. They say, "Who won? Who won?"
+
+They do not know who won. They start to argue. They say, "I won! No, I won! You are slow! No, you are slow!"
+
+They get angry and push each other. They fall down the hill. They roll and roll. They get dizzy and hurt. They cry and cry.
+
+A lady sees them and comes to help. She says, "What happened? Why are you crying?"
+
+Sam and Tom tell her about the race and the tie and the fall. The lady says, "Oh, you poor boys. You should not race and fight. You should play and share. Racing and fighting only make you dizzy and hurt. Playing and sharing make you happy and healthy. Do you understand?"
+
+Sam and Tom nod. They say, "We are sorry. We were silly. We will not race and fight again. We will play and share. Can we be friends again?"
+
+The lady smiles. She says, "Of course you can. Friends are more important than races. Here, have a hug and a cookie."
+
+Sam and Tom hug and eat the cookie. They feel better. They say, "Thank you, lady. You are very kind. We learned a lesson today. Racing and fighting are bad. Playing and sharing are good."
+
+The lady says, "You are very welcome. I am glad you learned a lesson. Now, go and have fun in the park. But remember, be nice to each other and enjoy the flowers and the birds."
+
+Sam and Tom say, "We will, we will. Goodbye, lady."
+
+They wave and run to the park. They play and share. They look at the flowers and the birds. They are happy and healthy. They are friends.
+Sam and Lily were going to the zoo with their mom. They had to take the subway to get there. Sam and Lily liked the subway. It was big and fast and loud. They liked to look out the window and see the lights and tunnels.
+
+"Mom, when will we be there?" Sam asked. He was impatient. He wanted to see the lions and the monkeys and the penguins.
+
+"Soon, honey. We have to stop a few more times." Mom said. She smiled and hugged Sam and Lily.
+
+Lily saw a big map on the wall. It had many colors and lines and dots. She wanted to know what it was. She got up from her seat and walked to the map. She tried to read the words, but they were too hard. She saw a red line and a blue line and a green line. She saw a dot that said "Zoo".
+
+"Look, Sam, we are going to the zoo!" Lily shouted. She pointed to the dot.
+
+Sam got up and followed Lily. He wanted to see the map too. He peeked over Lily's shoulder and saw the dot. He was happy. He liked the zoo.
+
+"Be careful, kids. Don't go too far." Mom said. She watched Sam and Lily from her seat. She was proud of them. They were curious and smart.
+
+The subway stopped at a station. The doors opened and some people got in and some people got out. Sam and Lily heard a voice.
+
+"Next stop, Zoo. Please stand clear of the doors." The voice said.
+
+Sam and Lily ran back to Mom. They grabbed her hand and pulled her to the door. They were excited. They were almost there.
+
+"Yay, we are going to the zoo!" Sam and Lily said together. They smiled and jumped. They could not wait to see the animals.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Lily had a pink bunny toy and Ben had a blue car toy.
+
+"Look, Lily, my car can go fast!" Ben said, zooming his toy across the floor.
+
+"Wow, Ben, your car is cool!" Lily said, hopping her bunny after him. "But my bunny can jump high!"
+
+They laughed and chased each other with their toys. But soon they got tired and thirsty. They decided to go to the kitchen and get some water.
+
+"Mom, can we have some water, please?" Lily asked, holding her bunny.
+
+"Of course, sweeties," Mom said, smiling. "But first, you need to wash your hands and your toys. They are very dirty from playing."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and went to the sink. They turned on the faucet and rinsed their hands and their toys. They used soap and rubbed them gently. They made bubbles and splashed a little.
+
+"Look, Mom, our hands and toys are clean!" Ben said, showing his car.
+
+"Good job, Ben," Mom said, giving him a towel. "And you, Lily, your bunny is clean too!"
+
+"Thank you, Mom," Lily said, drying her bunny.
+
+Mom gave them each a glass of water and a hug. They drank their water and felt refreshed. They thanked Mom and went back to the living room. They put their toys on the couch and cuddled with them. They were tired and happy. They closed their eyes and fell asleep. Mom smiled and covered them with a blanket. She kissed them and whispered, "I love you, my little ones."
+Ben and Lily were friends. They liked to watch films together. One day, they went to the library. They saw a film about animals. It was very interesting. They learned many things.
+
+But then, Ben saw another film. It was about cars. Ben liked cars. He wanted to watch it. He took the film and ran to the TV. He did not ask Lily.
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted to watch the film about animals. She did not like cars. She followed Ben. She said, "Ben, that is not nice. You did not share. You did not ask me. I want to watch the film about animals."
+
+Ben was angry. He said, "Lily, you are silly. Cars are better than animals. This film is more fun. You can watch the film about animals later."
+
+They both shouted. They did not listen. They did not play. They were not friends.
+
+The librarian saw them. She was not happy. She said, "Ben and Lily, stop. You are making noise. You are being rude. You have to share. You have to ask. You have to be kind. You have to say sorry. You have to forgive."
+
+Ben and Lily were quiet. They felt bad. They knew they were wrong. They looked at each other. They said, "Sorry. Forgive me."
+
+They hugged. They smiled. They were friends again.
+
+They decided to watch both films. They took turns. They learned more things. They had fun. They thanked the librarian. They said, "Thank you for helping us. Thank you for the films. They are very interesting."
+Lily and Sam are friends. They like to play together. One day, Lily invites Sam to visit her house. Sam is happy. He says yes.
+
+They walk to Lily's house. They see a big box on the porch. Lily says, "Look, Sam! My dad gave me this box. He said I can make anything I want with it. Do you want to help me?"
+
+Sam nods. He likes to be creative. He says, "What can we make with the box, Lily?"
+
+Lily thinks. She says, "We can make a car, or a rocket, or a castle, or a boat, or a..."
+
+Sam interrupts. He says, "I have an idea! Let's make a turn. A turn is a thing that spins and makes you dizzy. It will be fun!"
+
+Lily likes Sam's idea. She says, "OK, let's make a turn. How do we do that?"
+
+Sam says, "We need to cut a hole in the box. Then we need to put a stick through the hole. Then we need to tie a rope to the stick. Then we need to pull the rope and make the box spin. That's a turn!"
+
+Lily and Sam work together. They cut, they put, they tie, they pull. They make a turn. They take turns to sit in the box and spin. They laugh and scream. They have a lot of fun. They are very creative.
+Lila was a wealthy girl who had many toys and clothes. She liked to polish her shiny things and make them look more pretty. She had a rabbit named Snowy who was white and soft. Lila loved Snowy very much and always gave him carrots and hugs.
+
+One day, Lila's mother told her they were going to visit her aunt in another town. Lila was happy because she liked her aunt and wanted to show her her shiny things and Snowy. She packed her bag with her polish, her jewels, her dresses and her rabbit. She put Snowy in a small cage and carried him to the car.
+
+On the way, Lila's mother stopped at a gas station to fill the tank. She told Lila to stay in the car and watch Snowy. Lila nodded and smiled. She took out her polish and started to rub her jewels. She did not notice a man who came near the car and saw Snowy in the cage. The man liked rabbits and wanted to have one. He saw that Lila was busy and did not look at him. He opened the door and took the cage with Snowy. He ran away quickly.
+
+When Lila's mother came back, she saw that the cage was gone and Lila was crying. She asked her what happened and Lila told her that a bad man took Snowy. Lila's mother was angry and sad. She called the police and told them what happened. She tried to comfort Lila and said they would find Snowy.

+But they did not find Snowy. The bad man sold Snowy to a pet shop and got some money. The pet shop sold Snowy to another person who did not care for him. Snowy was lonely and scared. He missed Lila and her carrots and hugs. He wished he could go back to her. But he never saw her again.
+Lily loved to draw with her crayons. She had many colors and she liked to make pictures of her family, her friends and her toys. She always asked her mom or dad if she could use some paper before she started. They usually said yes, but sometimes they said no, because they needed the paper for other things.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big stack of paper on the table. It was white and smooth and looked perfect for drawing. She wanted to use some of it, but she did not see her mom or dad around. She thought they would not mind if she took one or two sheets. She reached for the paper, but then she heard a voice.
+
+"Lily, stop! That's not paper for drawing, that's paper for printing!" It was her dad, who had come from the other room. He looked angry and worried. He explained to Lily that the paper was very special and expensive, and that he needed it for his work. He said he had to print some documents that were very important and that he had a deadline. He said he was sorry, but he could not allow Lily to use the paper.
+
+Lily felt sad and sorry. She did not mean to make her dad upset. She said she was sorry and that she did not know. She asked her dad if he had any other paper for her to draw on. He said he did not, but he would look for some later. He asked Lily to go to her room and play with her toys until he was done.
+
+Lily went to her room, feeling disappointed. She wanted to draw, but she had no paper. She looked around her room, hoping to find something else to use. Then she saw something amazing. It was a big cardboard box that had come with a delivery. It was empty and had a lot of space inside. Lily had an idea. She grabbed her crayons and climbed into the box. She started to draw on the inside walls of the box. She made a beautiful scene of a garden, with flowers, trees, birds and butterflies. She felt happy and proud. She had found her own paper for drawing, and it was amazing.
+Lily and Max were playing in the classroom after school. They liked to pretend they were teachers and students. Lily wrote some letters on the blackboard with a big chalk. Max sat on a small chair and watched.
+
+"That is impressive, Lily!" Max said. "You can write so well!"
+
+"Thank you, Max!" Lily said. "Do you want to try?"
+
+Max nodded and got up. He took the chalk from Lily and tried to write his name. But he wrote too big and ran out of space. He erased some letters and tried again. But he still wrote too big.
+
+"Oh no!" Max said. "I wish I could shrink the chalk!"
+
+Lily had an idea. She saw a magnifying glass on the teacher's desk. She picked it up and held it over the chalk. She moved it closer and farther until she found the right spot.
+
+"Look, Max!" Lily said. "The chalk is shrinking!"
+
+Max looked and saw that the chalk was indeed smaller under the magnifying glass. He was amazed.
+
+"Wow, Lily!" Max said. "How did you do that?"
+
+Lily smiled and explained. "The magnifying glass makes things look bigger or smaller. It is a magic glass!"
+
+Max was curious. He took the magnifying glass from Lily and looked at different things. He saw the blackboard, the chair, the book, and the clock. He saw them bigger and smaller. He had fun.
+
+Lily and Max played with the magnifying glass until their parents came to pick them up. They learned a new word and a new trick. They were happy.

He crawls through the hole in the fence.
+
+On the other side, Tommy sees a big road with many cars and trucks. He thinks they are noisy and fast. He wants to cross the road and see more things. He does not see the red light or the sign that says "Stop". He runs across the road with his backpack. He does not hear the horn or the brakes. He does not feel the bump or the pain.
+
+Fluffy feels everything. He feels the backpack hit the ground and the car hit the backpack. He feels the blood and the bones. He feels the fear and the hurt. He does not feel happy. He does not feel anything.
+
+Tommy does not play with Fluffy anymore. He cries and cries. He wishes he had listened to Fluffy. He wishes he had stayed in the garden. He wishes he had not insisted. He is sorry and sad. But it is too late. Fluffy is gone.

+
+She scolds Tom. She is stern and serious.
+
+"Sorry, Lily and Ben. I was wrong. I should not have taken your toys. They are not stupid, they are nice. Can I play with you?" Tom says.
+
+He apologizes to Lily and Ben. He is sorry and ashamed.
+

+Anna liked peaches very much. She liked how they were soft and sweet and juicy. She liked how they smelled like summer. She liked how they had a little pit inside that she could spit out.
+
+One day, Anna saw a huge peach at the market. It was bigger than her head. It was the biggest peach she had ever seen. She wanted it so much. She asked her mom if she could have it. Her mom said yes, but only if she was good and helped with the shopping.

+
+But then, something bad happened. A big bee came buzzing around the huge peach. It wanted some of the juice too. It flew closer and closer to Anna's mouth. Anna was scared. She tried to shoo the bee away. But the bee was angry. It stung Anna on her lip. It hurt a lot.
+
+Anna dropped the huge peach. She screamed and cried. Her lip was swollen and red. She ran to her mom, who was nearby. Her mom hugged her and kissed her. She gave her some ice and some honey. She said it would be okay.
+
+Anna stopped crying. She felt better. But she was still sad. She looked at the huge peach. It was on the ground. It was dirty and bruised. It had a big bite mark. The bee was still on it. It was eating the juice.
+
+Anna didn't want the huge peach anymore. She said goodbye to it. She went home with her mom. She hoped she would find another peach someday. A smaller one. A safer one. A better one.
+Lily and Tom were twins. They liked to do everything together. They liked to play with their toys, read their books, and sing their songs. But sometimes they also liked to repeat what the other one said, just to be funny.
+
+One day, their mom and dad told them they were going on a vacation. They were going to see the big blue sea, the yellow sand, and the green palm trees. Lily and Tom were very happy. They packed their bags, put on their hats, and got in the car.

+
+Lily looked at him. She felt envious. She wanted to go on a plane too.
+
+"I want to go on a plane too!" she said.
+
+But their mom and dad said they were not going on a plane. They said they were going to the sea, and that was more fun. They said they could swim, build sandcastles, and collect shells. They said they could see fish, crabs, and starfish. They said they could watch the sun, the moon, and the stars.
+
+Lily and Tom listened to their mom and dad. They felt less envious. They felt excited. They repeated the names of everything they could do at the sea.
+
+"Swim!" Lily said.
+
+"Swim!" Tom repeated.
+
+"Sandcastles!" Tom said.

+"Poison? What is poison?" Anna asked.
+
+"Poison is something that makes you sick. Very sick. You should not drink it or touch it," Tom said.
+
+"Who put it here?" Anna asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe a bad person. Or a mean animal. We should tell someone," Tom said.
+
+They ran to the bench where Tom's mom was sitting. She was reading a book.
+
+"Mom, mom, we found poison in the park!" Tom said.
+
+"Poison? Where?" Tom's mom asked.
+
+She looked worried.
+
+"Over there, by the tree. It was a big bottle with a skull and a cross," Tom said.
+
+He pointed to the spot.
+
+Tom's mom got up and took their hands.
+
+"Thank you for telling me, Tom and Anna. You did the right thing. Poison is very dangerous. You should never touch it or drink it. You should always trust me and listen to me. I will keep you safe," she said.
+
+She hugged them and took them to the playground.
+
+They felt comfortable and happy. They played on the swings and the slide. They forgot about the poison. They were glad they had each other.
+Sara likes to swing on the big swing in the park. She likes to go fast and high and feel the wind in her hair. She wears her purple dress and her purple shoes when she swings. She thinks purple is the best color in the world.
+
+One day, Sara meets a new friend in the park. His name is Ben and he likes to swing too. He wears a blue shirt and a blue hat. He thinks blue is the best color in the world. He asks Sara if he can swing with her. Sara says yes, but she tells him that purple is better than blue.
+
+Ben and Sara swing together and have fun. They talk and laugh and share their snacks. They find out that they have many things in common. They both like to sing and draw and play with blocks. They both have a big brother and a little sister. They both have a dog and a cat.
+
+But they still disagree about colors. Sara says purple is prettier and cooler and more fun. Ben says blue is brighter and stronger and more calm. They try to convince each other, but they can't. They start to argue and get angry. They stop swinging and stop talking.
+
+Then they see a wise old owl sitting on a tree. The owl has brown feathers and yellow eyes. He looks at them and says, "Hoo, hoo, why are you fighting? You are both good friends. You both like to swing. You both have many things in common. Why do you care about colors? Colors are not important. What matters is what is inside your heart. Hoo, hoo, can't you see?"
+
+Sara and Ben look at each other and feel ashamed. They realize that the owl is right. Colors are not important. What matters is what is inside their heart. They both have kind and happy hearts. They both have good and loyal friends. They both have love and joy in their lives.
+
+They say sorry to each other and hug. They thank the owl for his wise words. They go back to the swing and swing together. They don't care about colors anymore. They care about each other. They are happy and they are friends.
+Anna likes to number her toys. She has one orange ball, two blue cars, three yellow ducks, and four red blocks. She puts them in a line and counts them every day. She says, "One, two, three, four, five. I have five toys. They are mine."
+
+One day, Anna goes to the park with her mom. She brings her orange ball and plays with it. She throws it high and catches it. She rolls it on the grass and kicks it. She has fun with her ball. She sees other kids playing with their toys, too. She says, "Hi, I am Anna. I have an orange ball. Do you want to play?"
+
+She meets a boy named Ben. He has a green bike. He says, "Hi, I am Ben. I have a green bike. I like your orange ball. Can I try it?" Anna says, "Yes, you can try it. But you have to give it back. It is mine." Ben says, "OK, I will give it back. Thank you." He takes the ball and throws it high. He catches it. He rolls it on the grass and kicks it. He has fun with the ball.
+
+But then, Ben forgets to give the ball back. He rides his bike away with the ball. He says, "Bye, Anna. I have to go home. See you later." Anna says, "Wait, Ben. You have my ball. Give it back. It is mine." But Ben does not hear her. He is too far away. Anna is sad. She cries. She says, "Mom, Ben took my ball. He did not give it back. It is mine."
+
+Mom hugs Anna and says, "I am sorry, Anna. Ben was not nice. He should have given your ball back. Maybe he will remember and bring it back tomorrow. Or maybe we can find another orange ball for you. Do you want to go home and play with your other toys?" Anna says, "Yes, Mom. I want to go home and play with my other toys. I still have four toys. They are mine. But I miss my orange ball. It was my favorite. I hope Ben will remember and give it back." Mom says, "I hope so, too, Anna. I love you. You are my favorite." They go home and play with the other toys. Anna tries to be happy, but she keeps a memory of her orange ball in her mind. She hopes to see it again.
+Sam and Mia are friends who like to play outside. They have a big flag with many colors that they found in a box. They like to wave the flag and run with it in the wind.
+
+One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big hill with a tree on top. They want to climb the hill and put the flag on the tree. They ask their moms if they can go.
+
+"Can we go to the hill, mom?" Sam says.
+
+"Can we bring the flag, mom?" Mia says.
+
+Their moms say yes, but they have to be careful and stay close. They give them a bottle of water and a snack. Sam and Mia say thank you and run to the hill with the flag.
+
+They have fun climbing the hill and looking at the sky and the birds. They reach the tree and tie the flag to a branch. They feel proud and happy. They wave to their moms and shout, "Look, we did it!"
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is a big dog that is barking and running towards them. The dog looks angry and scary. It has sharp teeth and a harsh voice. Sam and Mia are afraid. They drop the flag and run down the hill.
+
+"Help, mom, help!" they cry.
+
+Their moms hear them and run to them. They hug them and calm them down. They see the dog and the flag. The dog has the flag in its mouth and is tearing it apart. The flag is ruined.
+
+Sam and Mia are sad and angry. They liked the flag. They worked hard to put it on the tree. They want the dog to go away and leave their flag alone.
+
+"Bad dog, bad dog!" they yell.
+
+Their moms tell them to be quiet and not to provoke the dog. They say they are sorry about the flag, but they are glad they are safe. They say they can find another flag or make one themselves. They say they love them and they are proud of them.
+
+Sam and Mia feel better. They hug their moms and say they love them too. They say they are sorry for the dog, maybe it is lonely or hungry. They say they will share their snack and water with the dog, maybe it will be nice.
+
+They go to the dog and offer it some food and water. The dog stops barking and tearing the flag. It looks at them and wags its tail. It takes the food and water and licks their hands. It is not so angry and scary anymore. It is just a dog.
+
+Sam and Mia smile and pet the dog. They say they are sorry for yelling at it. They say they are friends now. They ask the dog if it wants to play with them. The dog barks and nods. It is happy.
+
+They go to their moms and tell them what happened. Their moms are surprised and glad. They say they are brave and kind. They say they can play with the dog, but they have to be gentle and respectful. They say they will watch them and make sure they are safe.
+
+Sam and Mia nod and say yes. They take the dog and the flag and go to the hill again. They play and laugh and have fun. They forget about the harsh voice and the sharp teeth. They only see the wagging tail and the licking tongue. They are friends.
+Lily and Sam were friends. They liked to play with toys and draw pictures. One day, they found a big box in the garage. They wanted to make a house with the box.
+
+"Let's cut a door and a window with scissors," said Lily.
+
+"OK, and we can use tape to stick things on the box," said Sam.
+
+They got scissors and tape from the kitchen. They cut a door and a window on the box. They taped some paper and stickers on the box. They made a house.
+
+"Look, our house is done!" said Lily. "It is very pretty."
+
+"I like it too," said Sam. "Let's go inside and pretend we live there."
+
+They crawled inside the box. They had fun playing and talking.
+
+"Can I draw on the wall?" asked Sam.
+
+"Sure, why not?" said Lily. "It is our house. We can do what we want."
+
+They got some crayons and started to draw on the wall. They drew flowers and stars and animals.
+
+"You are very good at drawing," said Lily. "I like your pictures."
+
+"Thank you," said Sam. "You are very good too. I like your colors."
+
+They encouraged each other. They were proud of their house.
+
+But then, they heard a loud noise. It was Mom. She came into the garage. She saw the box. She saw the scissors and the tape and the crayons. She saw the mess.
+
+"What are you doing?" she yelled. "You ruined the box! You wasted the tape! You made a mess with the crayons! You are in big trouble!"
+
+She grabbed the box and threw it away. She took the scissors and the tape and the crayons. She scolded Lily and Sam. She made them clean the garage.
+
+Lily and Sam were sad. They cried. They lost their house. They lost their fun. They were not proud anymore.
+Tom and Mia liked to play in the park. They liked to slide, swing, and run. But their favorite thing was to climb the big hill. The hill was rough and steep, but they liked the challenge. They liked to see who could get to the top first.
+
+One day, they went to the park with their mom. She said they could climb the hill, but they had to be careful. She said the hill was slippery after the rain. She said they should hold hands and help each other. Tom and Mia nodded, but they still wanted to race.
+
+They ran to the hill and started to climb. Tom was faster than Mia. He pulled ahead and reached the top. He turned around and shouted, "I win!" He saw Mia was still halfway up the hill. He saw she was struggling. He saw she was slipping. He felt bad. He wanted to help her.
+
+He ran down the hill to Mia. He reached out his hand and said, "Grab my hand!" Mia tried to grab his hand, but she missed. She slid down the hill and bumped her shoulder on a rock. She cried out in pain. Tom cried out too. He felt sorry. He wished he had helped her sooner.
+
+Their mom heard them and ran to them. She hugged them and checked Mia's shoulder. She said it was not broken, but it was bruised. She said they should go home and put some ice on it. She said they should be more careful next time. She said they should not race on the hill. Tom and Mia nodded. They said they were sorry. They said they loved each other. They learned their lesson.
+Tom and Lily were playing with blocks in their room. They liked to create towers and bridges and castles with the blocks. They used different colors and shapes to make their creations.
+
+"Look, Lily, I made a big tower!" Tom said, showing his sister his block tower. "It is taller than you!"
+
+"That is a nice tower, Tom, but I made a better bridge!" Lily said, pointing to her block bridge. "It is longer than you!"
+
+They were both proud of their creations and wanted to show them to their mom. But before they could, they felt the floor shake. They heard a loud noise outside. They saw things fall from the shelves and walls. They were scared.
+
+"What is that, Tom?" Lily asked, holding her brother's hand.
+
+"I don't know, Lily, but it is noisy and scary!" Tom said, hugging his sister.
+
+They ran to their mom, who was in the kitchen. She was holding a radio and looked worried.
+
+"Mom, what is happening?" Tom and Lily asked.
+
+"Shh, my loves, it is an earthquake. It is when the ground moves and makes noise. But don't worry, we are safe here. Come, let's go under the table and wait until it stops." Mom said, taking them to the table.
+
+They followed their mom and sat under the table. They held each other and prayed. They felt the ground shake less and less. They heard the noise stop. They saw their mom smile.
+
+"It is over, my loves, the earthquake is over. We are okay." Mom said, kissing them.
+
+They got out from under the table and looked around. They saw their block creations were broken and scattered. They felt sad.
+
+"Mom, our creations are gone!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+"I know, my loves, but you can create new ones. You are very creative and smart. And you are brave and strong. I am so proud of you." Mom said, hugging them.
+
+They smiled and hugged their mom. They decided to create new things with their blocks. They hoped there would be no more earthquakes. They were happy to be together.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the kitchen. They saw a long knife on the table. It was shiny and sharp.
+
+"Look, a knife!" Ben said. "Let's play with it!"
+
+"No, Ben, that's bad!" Lily said. "Mommy said knives are dangerous. They can hurt us. We should not touch them."
+
+But Ben did not listen. He wanted to have fun. He took the knife and waved it in the air. He pretended to be a pirate.
+
+"Arrr, I'm a pirate!" Ben said. "Give me your treasure, or I'll cut you!"
+
+Lily was scared. She backed away from Ben. She did not want to play with him.
+
+"Stop, Ben, stop!" Lily said. "You're not a pirate, you're being silly. Put the knife down, please!"
+
+But Ben did not stop. He stepped closer to Lily. He laughed and pointed the knife at her.
+
+"Come on, Lily, don't be a baby!" Ben said. "It's just a game. Don't you want to play with me?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She tried to run away. But she tripped over a chair. She fell to the floor. Ben followed her. He did not see the chair. He stepped on it. He lost his balance. He fell too. The knife slipped from his hand. It flew in the air. It landed on Lily's chest. It made a big cut. Lily screamed. Ben screamed. Blood came out of the cut. It was red and wet.
+
+Mommy heard the screams. She ran to the kitchen. She saw Ben and Lily on the floor. She saw the knife and the blood. She was shocked and angry and sad.
+
+"What have you done?" Mommy said. "How could you be so stupid and naughty? You hurt your sister! You could have killed her!"
+
+She took the knife and threw it in the trash. She picked up Lily and hugged her. She called for help. She cried and cried.
+
+Ben cried too. He was sorry and scared. He wished he had listened to Lily. He wished he had not played with the knife. He learned a hard lesson. He learned that knives are not toys. He learned that playing with knives can have bad endings. He learned that he should always obey Mommy and be careful and kind.

+
+Tim and Jen do not answer. They ignore Mama too.

+
+Tom feels ashamed. He knows he lied to Ben. He knows he was envious of Ben's new bat. He knows he was wrong.

+
+Tom and Mia wipe their tears. They nod and smile. They say, "OK, mom. Thank you, mom. We love you, mom." They hold their moms' hands and go to the slide and the swing and the sandbox. They still miss their blocks, but they try to have fun. They hope to see their blocks again.
+Lily and Ben are playing with their cars on the floor. They like to make noises and pretend they are driving fast. Lily has a red car and Ben has a blue car.
+
+"Look, my car can go faster than yours!" Lily says, zooming her car past Ben's.
+
+"No, my car can go faster!" Ben says, chasing after her car.
+
+They race around the room, laughing and having fun. Then they see a big box in the corner. It has a picture of a train on it.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asks, pointing to the box.
+
+"Let's see!" Ben says, running to the box.
+
+They open the box and find a shiny new train set inside. It has tracks, a locomotive, and some cars. There is also a remote control.
+
+"Wow, this is different!" Lily says, touching the train.
+
+"Can we play with it?" Ben asks, picking up the remote.
+
+They look at each other and smile. They put the tracks together and place the train on them. They turn on the remote and press the buttons.
+
+The train starts to move, making a chugging sound. It goes around the tracks, faster and slower, as they change the speed. They also make it whistle and stop.
+
+"This is fun!" Lily says, watching the train.
+
+"Yeah, this is fun!" Ben agrees, holding the remote.
+
+They play with the train for a long time, forgetting about their cars. They are happy and excited.
+
+Then they hear a voice from the door.
+
+"Who wants some cookies?" Mom asks, coming into the room.
+
+They look up and see Mom holding a plate of cookies. They smell yummy.
+
+"Me! Me!" Lily and Ben answer, jumping up.
+
+They run to Mom and hug her. They take some cookies and say thank you.
+
+"Did you like your surprise?" Mom asks, smiling.
+
+"Yes, we love it!" Lily and Ben say, pointing to the train.
+
+"I'm glad you do. It was a gift from your grandma. She wanted to give you something different for your birthday." Mom says, kissing them.
+
+"Thank you, grandma!" Lily and Ben say, looking at the box.
+
+They eat their cookies and then go back to play with the train. They are very happy. They have a new toy and a new friend. The train is different, but they like it. They like different things.
+Jenny loved to play with her scissors. She liked to cut paper, cloth, and even her hair. She thought it was fun to make different shapes and sounds with the scissors. But she did not know that scissors could be dangerous.
+
+One day, she found a brown envelope on the table. It had daddy's name on it. She wondered what was inside. She decided to cut it open with her scissors. She did not see the sharp edge of the scissors. She cut her finger and it hurt a lot. She cried and ran to daddy.
+
+Daddy saw the blood on her finger and the envelope. He was angry and sad. He said, "Jenny, what did you do? This envelope had a very important paper for my work. You ruined it and you hurt yourself. You should not play with scissors. They are not toys. They can cut you and other things. You have to be careful and ask before you touch things that are not yours."
+
+Jenny felt sorry and scared. She said, "I'm sorry, daddy. I just wanted to see what was inside. I did not mean to cut it or hurt myself. I did not know scissors were dangerous. I will not play with them again. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+Daddy hugged her and said, "I'm not mad at you, Jenny. I love you. But you have to learn from your mistake. Scissors are tools, not toys. You have to respect them and use them only when you need them and with someone's help. And you have to respect other people's things and not cut them without permission. Do you understand?"
+
+Jenny nodded and said, "I understand, daddy. I'm sorry. I love you too."
+
+Daddy kissed her and said, "It's okay, Jenny. I forgive you. Let me put a bandage on your finger and we can talk more later. Come on, let's go."
+
+The end.
+Lily was shy. She did not like to talk to other kids or play with them. She liked to read books and draw pictures in her room. She had a flashlight that she used to read at night when her mom said it was time to sleep.
+
+One night, Lily was reading a book about a princess who had a magic ring. She wanted to finish the book, but her mom came and said, "Lily, it's late. Turn off your flashlight and go to sleep." Lily said, "OK, mom. Just one more page." Her mom said, "OK, but hurry up." She kissed Lily and left.
+
+Lily turned on her flashlight and read the last page. The princess was in trouble. A bad witch had stolen her magic ring and locked her in a tower. The princess had a friend, a bird, who flew to the tower to help her. The bird found a key and gave it to the princess. The princess was happy. She said, "Thank you, bird. You are my hero. Let's go and get my ring back."
+
+Lily was happy too. She liked the story. She wanted to see how it ended. She turned the page, but there was nothing. The book was not finished. Lily was sad and angry. She said, "No, no, no. This is not fair. I want to know what happens next. Where is the rest of the book?"
+
+She looked at the back cover of the book. There was a picture of the author and a note. The note said, "Dear readers, I'm sorry to tell you that this is the last book I will ever write. I have a bad sickness and I will not live for long. I hope you enjoyed my stories and I hope you will make your own. Goodbye and thank you."
+
+Lily felt a cold shiver in her heart. She did not understand what the note meant, but she felt something was wrong. She felt scared and alone. She wanted her mom. She turned off her flashlight and cried. She did not sleep that night. She did not read any more books. She did not draw any more pictures. She did not smile any more. She was shy.
+Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play with boxes. They have many boxes in their room. They make forts and cars and rockets with the boxes.
+
+One day, they find a new box in the garage. It is big and brown and has a picture of a fish on it. They want to add it to their fort. They drag it to their room and open it.
+
+Inside the box, they see a fish. But the fish is not moving. It is not swimming. It is not breathing. It is dead. Sam and Ben are sad. They do not like the dead fish. They do not want it in their fort.
+
+They run to their mom and tell her about the box and the fish. Mom says the box is from Uncle Joe. He sent them a fish for their birthday. But the fish did not make it. He died on the way. Mom says she is sorry and hugs them.
+
+Sam and Ben say they are sorry too. They ask Mom what to do with the dead fish. Mom says they can bury him in the garden. They can make a grave and say goodbye. Sam and Ben agree. They take the box and the fish to the garden. They dig a hole and put the fish in. They cover him with dirt and find a stone. They write his name on the stone. They call him Bob. They say bye to Bob and thank him for being their fish. They hope he is happy in fish heaven.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big cloud in the sky. It was dark and loud. It made a scary noise. "Boom!" Lily and Tom were afraid. They ran to their mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, what is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"That is thunder, my dear. It comes from the cloud. Sometimes it rains when there is thunder. But it is not bad. It is just nature." Mom said.
+
+"But it is scary, mom. It makes me want to cry." Tom said.
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "It is okay to be scared, my loves. But you don't have to cry. You can clap your hands and sing a song. That will make you feel better. And you can look for the sun. The sun is always there, even behind the cloud. It will come out soon and make everything bright and warm again."
+
+Lily and Tom liked that idea. They clapped their hands and sang a song. They sang, "The sun will come out, the sun will come out, the sun will come out and chase the cloud away." They smiled and laughed. They saw the sun peeking from behind the cloud. They were happy. They learned that they can face their fears with courage and joy. They thanked their mom and went back to play.
+Ben and Mia like to play with their toys in the living room. They have cars, dolls, blocks and books. But they do not like to clean up when they are done. They leave their toys all over the floor and the couch.
+
+One day, Mom comes home from work and sees the messy living room. She is not happy. She says to Ben and Mia, "Look at this mess! You need to put your toys away right now. Or I will take them away."
+
+Ben and Mia do not want to lose their toys. They start to pick them up and put them in the toy box. But Ben sees a shiny metal car that he likes. He takes it out of the box and says to Mia, "Look at this car! It can turn and make noises. It is so cool!"
+
+Mia wants to see the car too. She says to Ben, "Let me see it! Let me play with it!" She tries to grab the car from Ben, but he holds it tight. They start to pull and tug on the car.
+
+The car is not strong enough for their pulling and tugging. It breaks in half. The metal parts fall on the floor. Ben and Mia are shocked. They look at the broken car and then at each other. They feel sad and sorry.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to the living room. She sees the broken car and the metal parts on the floor. She says to Ben and Mia, "What happened? Did you break the car?"
+
+Ben and Mia nod their heads. They say to Mom, "We are sorry, Mom. We were fighting over the car and it broke. We did not mean to break it."
+
+Mom sighs and says to Ben and Mia, "I know you did not mean to break it, but you need to be careful with your toys. And you need to share with each other. Fighting is not nice. Now, please finish cleaning up and then say sorry to each other."
+
+Ben and Mia say sorry to each other and hug. They finish cleaning up and put the broken car in the trash. They promise to be nice and share with each other. Mom smiles and says, "That's good. I love you both. Now, how about we read a book together?"
+Lila is a pupil at a modern school. She likes to learn new things and play with her friends. Today, she has a special project to show to her teacher and her class. She made a picture of her family with paper and glue and stickers.
+
+She puts her picture in her backpack and hurries to the bus stop. She does not want to be late for school. She sees her friend Ben waiting for her. He has a big smile on his face.
+
+"Hi, Lila!" he says. "What do you have in your backpack?"
+
+"It's a surprise," Lila says. "I will show you at school. What do you have?"
+
+"I have a surprise, too," Ben says. "It's something I made with clay and paint. It's very cool."
+
+They get on the bus and sit together. They talk about their surprises and what they want to do at school. They are very excited.
+
+When they arrive at school, they run to their classroom. They see their teacher, Miss Lee, and their other friends. Miss Lee is very kind and fun. She likes to see what her pupils make and do.
+
+"Good morning, Lila and Ben!" she says. "I'm glad you are here. Do you have something to share with us today?"
+
+"Yes, we do!" Lila and Ben say together. They take out their surprises from their backpacks and show them to Miss Lee and their class. Everyone claps and says how nice they are.
+
+Lila and Ben feel very happy and proud. They like their modern school and their teacher and their friends. They can't wait to see what they will learn and make next.
+Lily was a gifted kid. She could read and write many words. She liked to chew gum and make bubbles. One day, she went to the park with her mom and saw a big sign. It said: "Bubble Gum Contest. Win a prize!"
+
+Lily wanted to join the contest. She asked her mom for some gum. Her mom gave her a pack and said: "You can try, but be careful. Don't swallow the gum or blow too big."
+
+Lily nodded and ran to the sign. There were many kids there. They all had gum in their mouths. A man with a hat said: "Welcome to the contest. The rules are simple. You have to blow the biggest bubble you can. The one with the biggest bubble wins. Ready? Go!"
+
+Lily chewed her gum and blew a bubble. It was small at first, but she kept blowing. It grew bigger and bigger. She saw the other kids' bubbles. Some were big, some were small, some popped. Lily's bubble was the biggest. She smiled and blew harder.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Her bubble popped. The gum stuck to her face and hair. She felt sticky and silly. She heard the other kids laugh. She wanted to cry. She looked for her mom.
+
+Her mom was there. She hugged Lily and said: "It's okay, honey. You did great. You are still gifted. And I have a surprise for you. Look!"
+
+She showed Lily a bag. Inside was a book. It had many words and pictures. Lily loved books. She forgot about the gum and the contest. She smiled and said: "Thank you, mom. You are the best. Can we read it together?"
+
+Her mom nodded and said: "Of course. Let's go home and read it. And don't worry about the gum. We can wash it off. You are still my gifted kid."
+Tommy and Lily were twins who liked to play together. One day, they decided to have a pirate adventure in the bathtub. They filled the tub with water and bubbles, and put on their pirate hats and eye patches. They also brought some toys, like a rubber duck, a boat, and a sword.
+
+"Ahoy, matey!" Tommy said to Lily. "We are the bravest pirates in the sea! We can find treasure and fight sharks!"
+
+"Arrr!" Lily agreed. "But we have to be careful. There is a big storm coming. Look at the dark clouds outside the window!"
+
+Tommy and Lily pretended that the bubbles were waves, and that the rubber duck was a shark. They made loud noises and splashed water. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they heard a knock on the door. It was their mom.
+
+"Tommy, Lily, time to get out of the tub!" she said. "You have been in there for too long. The water is getting cold, and you have to get ready for bed."
+
+Tommy and Lily did not want to stop playing. They were having too much fun. They were impatient.
+
+"Mom, please, just five more minutes!" Tommy begged.
+
+"No, mom, we can't get out now!" Lily said. "We have to protect our boat from the shark!"
+
+Their mom sighed. She knew they loved to play, but they also had to follow the rules.
+
+"Come on, kids, don't be silly. The shark is just a toy, and the boat is not going anywhere. You can play again tomorrow. Now, get out of the tub, and dry yourselves. I have a surprise for you."
+
+Tommy and Lily looked at each other. They were curious. What surprise did their mom have?
+
+They decided to listen to their mom, and get out of the tub. They wrapped themselves in towels, and followed their mom to their bedroom.
+
+There, they saw two new books on their bed. They had colorful pictures and funny stories. They were pirate books!
+
+"Wow, mom, thank you!" Tommy and Lily exclaimed. "These are awesome!"
+
+"You're welcome, my little pirates," their mom said. "I thought you would like them. Now, let's read them together, and then go to sleep. OK?"
+
+"OK, mom," Tommy and Lily said. They snuggled with their mom, and opened the books. They forgot about the bathtub, and the shark, and the storm. They only cared about the pirate adventure in the books. They were happy.
+Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to play outside. They had a big yard with many trees and flowers. One day, they saw a new thing in their yard. It was a tall plant with green leaves and yellow things on it. They did not know what it was.
+
+"Look, Sam, what is that?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know, Tom. It seems like a big flower. Maybe we can pick it and give it to Mom," Sam said.
+
+They ran to the plant and tried to pull the yellow things. But they were hard and stuck to the plant. They heard a loud voice behind them.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing with my corn?" the voice said.
+
+They turned around and saw a man. He was their neighbor, Mr. Brown. He had a hat and a shovel. He looked angry.
+
+"Your corn?" Tom and Sam said.
+
+"Yes, my corn. I planted it here last month. It is healthy and good to eat. But you have to wait until it is ready. You can't just take it," Mr. Brown said.
+
+"We are sorry, Mr. Brown. We did not know it was your corn. We thought it was a flower," Tom and Sam said.
+
+Mr. Brown sighed. He was not so angry anymore. He saw that they were just curious kids.
+
+"It's okay, boys. I understand. But you have to be careful. Corn is not a flower. It is a food. And it is not ready yet. You have to wait until the leaves turn brown and the corn is dry. Then you can pick it and cook it. Do you want to try some when it is ready?" Mr. Brown said.
+
+Tom and Sam nodded. They liked to try new things.
+
+"Okay, then. But you have to promise me not to touch the corn until then. And you have to ask me first. Deal?" Mr. Brown said.
+
+"Deal," Tom and Sam said.
+
+They shook hands with Mr. Brown. He smiled and went back to his house. Tom and Sam went back to their yard. They looked at the corn. They wondered how it would taste. They decided to wait and see. They learned something new that day.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the living room. They had many toys, but they wanted to do something new. Lily had an idea.
+
+"Let's make a fort with the chairs and the blankets," she suggested to Ben.
+
+Ben liked the idea. He helped Lily move the chairs and put the blankets over them. They made a big and cozy fort. They crawled inside and pretended they were in a castle.
+
+They had fun for a while, but then they heard a loud noise. It was their dog, Max. He had seen the fort and wanted to join them. He ran towards the fort and jumped on it.
+
+The fort collapsed. The chairs and the blankets fell on Lily and Ben. They were not hurt, but they were very surprised. Max licked their faces and wagged his tail.
+
+"Bad dog!" Lily said. "You ruined our fort!"
+
+Ben laughed. He was not angry. He thought Max was funny.
+
+"He just wanted to play with us," he said. "He didn't know he was foolish."
+
+Lily smiled. She was not angry either. She loved Max.
+
+"Maybe we can make another fort later," she said. "But now let's play with Max. He is our friend."
+
+They hugged Max and played with him. They forgot about the fort. They were happy.
+Lily and her mom went to a restaurant for lunch. Lily liked the restaurant because it had many pictures on the walls and a big fish tank. But today, the restaurant was empty. There were no other people eating or working there.
+
+"Mom, where is everyone?" Lily asked.
+
+Mom looked around and shrugged. "I don't know, sweetie. Maybe they are all busy or on vacation. Do you still want to eat here?"
+
+Lily nodded. She was hungry and she wanted to see the fish. Mom smiled and took her hand. They walked to a table near the fish tank and sat down.
+
+"Hello, welcome to the restaurant!" a voice said. Lily and mom looked up and saw a man in a funny hat and apron. He was holding a big tray with plates and cups. He was the only person in the restaurant.
+
+"Hi, thank you for coming!" he said. "I'm sorry, we are very empty today. But I have some food for you. What would you like to eat?"
+
+Lily and mom looked at the tray. There were sandwiches, fries, salad, pizza, and cake. Lily's eyes widened. She wanted to eat everything.
+
+"Wow, you have a lot of food!" mom said.
+
+"Yes, I do!" the man said. "I made it all by myself. You can have anything you want. It's all free!"
+
+"Free?" mom asked. "Why is it free?"
+
+The man shrugged. "Because I like you. And because I don't want the food to go bad. And because I'm lonely. Please, eat and enjoy!"
+
+Lily and mom smiled. They thanked the man and picked some food from the tray. They ate and talked and watched the fish. The man joined them and told them stories and jokes. They had a lot of fun.
+
+Lily and mom liked the restaurant. They liked the food and the fish and the man. They decided to come back again. Maybe next time, the restaurant would not be so empty.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big red ball. They want to play with it.
+
+"Can we lift the ball?" Anna asks Ben.
+
+"Yes, we can try," Ben says. "You hold this side, and I hold that side."
+
+They try to lift the ball, but it is too heavy. They cannot lift it. They feel sad.
+
+Then they see a man. He is tall and strong. He has a rare smile. He walks to them.
+
+"Hello, little ones. Do you need some help?" he asks.
+
+"Yes, please. Can you lift the ball for us?" Anna says.
+
+"Sure, I can. Here you go," he says. He lifts the ball with one hand. He gives it to Anna and Ben.
+
+"Wow, thank you!" they say. They are happy. They hug the ball.
+
+"You're welcome. Have fun," he says. He walks away.
+
+Anna and Ben play with the ball. They bounce it, roll it, and kick it. They laugh and smile. They have a good time.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to act like they were doctors and nurses. They had a bag of bandages and a toy stethoscope. They pretended to help the other kids who had boo-boos.
+
+"Let me see your arm, Sam," Lily said. "You fell off the slide and hurt yourself. You need a bandage."
+
+Sam nodded and let Lily wrap a bandage around his arm. He smiled and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good nurse."
+
+Tom saw Lily and Sam and felt jealous. He wanted to be the doctor, not Lily. He thought Lily was bossy and took all the fun. He decided to play a trick on her.
+
+He ran to the bag of bandages and took out a big one. He wrapped it around his head and pretended to be very sick. He moaned and groaned and lay down on the grass.
+
+"Lily, Lily, come quick!" he called. "I need your help. I have a big boo-boo on my head."
+
+Lily heard Tom and ran to him. She saw the bandage and felt scared. She thought Tom was really hurt. She touched his forehead and asked, "What happened, Tom? How did you get this boo-boo?"
+
+Tom grinned and said, "Ha ha, I fooled you, Lily. I'm not sick. I just wanted to make you worry. You are not a real nurse. You are just a silly girl."
+
+Lily felt angry and sad. She didn't like Tom's trick. She thought it was mean and not funny. She said, "That's not nice, Tom. You shouldn't lie and act like you are sick. You could scare someone or make them cry. You should be sorry and say sorry."
+
+Tom felt ashamed. He realized he was wrong. He took off the bandage and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. You are right. I shouldn't have done that. It was not nice. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I forgive you, Tom. But don't do it again. We should be kind and honest with each other. That's what real doctors and nurses do."
+
+Tom and Lily hugged and made up. They decided to play together and share the bandages and the stethoscope. They learned that acting is fun, but only when it is normal and not mean.
+Lily and Ben were going to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They were very happy. They liked to see the animals and play in the park. They put on their hats and sunscreen, because it was a hot day.
+
+They walked to the bus stop, but the bus was late. Mom looked at her watch and said, "Oh no, we will miss the show. The lions and tigers are going to roar and jump soon. What can we do?"
+
+Dad saw a yellow car with a sign on it. He said, "Look, there is a taxi. We can take the taxi to the zoo. It will be faster than the bus." He waved his hand and the taxi stopped.
+
+Lily and Ben climbed into the taxi with Mom and Dad. The taxi driver was nice. He asked them where they wanted to go. Dad said, "To the zoo, please. And hurry, we don't want to miss the show."
+
+The taxi driver nodded and drove away. He turned on the radio and played some music. Lily and Ben sang along. They were excited. They decided to sit by the window and look at the cars and buildings. They hoped to see the lions and tigers soon.
+Lisa loved to sing. She sang every day, in the morning, in the afternoon, and at night. She sang to her dolls, to her dog, and to her mom and dad. She sang happy songs, sad songs, and silly songs. She sang so loud that everyone could hear her.
+
+One day, Lisa saw a beautiful vase on the table. It was big and shiny and had many colors. Lisa wanted to sing to the vase. She thought the vase would like her songs. She climbed on a chair and reached for the vase. But the vase was too far and too heavy. Lisa lost her balance and fell. The vase fell with her and broke into many pieces.
+
+Lisa started to cry. She was scared and hurt. She cut her hand on the glass. She saw her mom run to her and hug her. She saw her dad pick up the pieces and frown. "Lisa, what did you do?" he asked. "This vase was very expensive. It was a gift from grandma. She will be very sad when she sees it."
+
+Lisa felt very sorry. She did not mean to break the vase. She just wanted to sing to it. She looked at her mom and dad and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I love you and I love grandma. I wanted to make the vase happy with my songs. But I made a big mess. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+Her mom and dad looked at each other and sighed. They were angry and disappointed, but they also loved Lisa. They knew she was a good girl who made a mistake. They cleaned her wound and bandaged it. They hugged her and kissed her. They said, "We love you too, Lisa. We know you didn't mean to break the vase. But you have to be careful and listen to us. The vase was not a toy. It was not for singing. It was for looking and admiring. You have to respect other people's things and ask before you touch them. Do you understand?"
+
+Lisa nodded and said, "Yes, I understand. I'm sorry. I will be more careful and listen to you. I will not touch things that are not mine. I will not sing to vases. I will sing to you and to grandma. I hope she will forgive me."
+
+Her mom and dad smiled and said, "We forgive you, Lisa. And we're sure grandma will forgive you too. She loves you and your songs. But next time, please sing to her on the phone, not to her vase."
+Lily and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. Lily has a soft bear that she likes to rub with her hand. Ben has a wooden truck that he likes to push on the floor. They are having fun until Ben sees Lily's bear.
+
+"Can I have your bear?" Ben asks Lily.
+
+"No, it is my bear. You have your truck," Lily says.
+
+"But I want your bear. It is so soft and nice. My truck is hard and noisy," Ben says.
+
+He tries to grab Lily's bear, but Lily holds it tight. They start to pull and tug on the bear.
+
+"Stop it, Ben! You are being stupid!" Lily shouts.
+
+"Give me the bear, Lily! You are being mean!" Ben shouts back.
+
+They pull so hard that the bear rips in half. They both fall on the floor, holding a piece of the bear. They look at the bear and start to cry.
+
+"Mama! Mama!" they call.
+
+Mama comes into the living room and sees the mess. She sees Lily and Ben crying with the bear.
+
+"What happened here?" Mama asks.
+
+"Lily and Ben were fighting over the bear. They ripped it in half," Mama says.
+
+She picks up Lily and Ben and hugs them.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mama. We were stupid," Lily and Ben say.
+
+"It's okay, my loves. You made a mistake, but you can learn from it. Fighting is not nice. Sharing is nice. Can you say sorry to each other?" Mama says.
+
+Lily and Ben look at each other and nod.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I should not have tried to take your bear," Ben says.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. I should have let you rub my bear," Lily says.
+
+They hug each other and give each other their piece of the bear.
+
+"Can we fix the bear, Mama?" Lily and Ben ask.
+
+"Of course, we can. We can sew it back together. It will be a new bear. A bear that belongs to both of you. A bear that you can rub and play with together. Do you like that idea?" Mama says.
+
+Lily and Ben smile and nod.
+
+"Yes, Mama. We like that idea. Thank you, Mama," Lily and Ben say.
+
+Mama smiles and takes them to the kitchen. She finds a needle and some thread. She sews the bear back together. She gives the bear to Lily and Ben.
+
+"Here you go, my loves. Your new bear. What will you name it?" Mama says.
+
+Lily and Ben look at the bear and think.
+
+"How about Rubby?" Lily says.
+
+"How about Standy?" Ben says.
+
+They look at each other and giggle.
+
+"How about Rubby-Standy?" they say together.
+
+Mama laughs and hugs them.
+
+"That's a perfect name. Rubby-Standy. I love you, Lily and Ben. And I love Rubby-Standy too," Mama says.
+
+They all hug and kiss. They go back to the living room and play with Rubby-Standy. They are happy and nice to each other. They are not stupid anymore.
+Sara and Lily are sisters. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. Sara likes pink. She has a pink dress, a pink doll and a pink blanket. Lily likes blue. She has a blue shirt, a blue car and a blue ball.
+
+One day, Sara and Lily hear a noise outside. They look out the window and see a big truck. The truck is loud and dirty. It makes them scared.
+
+"What is that?" Sara asks.
+
+"It is a truck," Lily says. "It is here to fix the road."
+
+"Why is it so loud?" Sara says.
+
+"Because it has a big engine and a big horn," Lily says. "It is not gentle like our toys."
+
+Sara and Lily hug each other. They do not like the truck. They wish it would go away.
+
+They run to their bed and hide under the pink blanket. They hold their pink doll and their blue car. They feel safe and warm.
+
+They tell each other stories. They make funny voices and laugh. They forget about the truck.
+
+They are happy and cozy. They are gentle sisters.
+Tom and Lily were playing on the beach. They liked to dig holes and make sand castles. They saw a crab crawling on the sand. It had big claws and a hard shell.
+
+"Look, a crab!" Tom said. "Let's catch it and bury it in the sand!"
+
+"No, don't do that!" Lily said. "The crab is alive. It needs air and water. It will die if you bury it."
+
+But Tom did not listen. He ran after the crab and grabbed it with his hand. He put it in his bucket and ran to his hole. He dumped the crab in the hole and covered it with sand.
+
+"There, I buried the crab!" Tom said. "Now it's mine!"
+
+Lily was angry and sad. She ran to the hole and dug out the crab. She saw that the crab was not moving. She touched it and felt that it was cold and stiff.
+
+"Tom, you killed the crab!" Lily said. "You are mean and bad! The crab was not yours. It was a living thing. You should be ashamed!"
+
+Tom looked at the crab and felt sorry. He did not mean to kill it. He just wanted to play with it. He did not know that it needed air and water. He felt ashamed.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Tom said. "I didn't know. I was wrong. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Lily saw that Tom was sorry. She was still angry and sad, but she did not want to be mean and bad too. She forgave Tom.
+
+"I forgive you, Tom," Lily said. "But you have to learn to be kind and gentle to animals. They are not toys. They have feelings and needs. Do you understand?"
+
+Tom nodded. He understood. He and Lily took the crab to the water and put it back. They said goodbye to the crab and hoped that it would be okay. They decided to play with something else. They learned a lesson that day.
+Tom and Lily are hungry. They want to eat something yummy. They go to the kitchen and look in the fridge. But the fridge is empty. There is no food in the fridge.
+
+Tom and Lily are sad. They do not like to be hungry. They wonder what to do. They see their mom in the living room. She is reading a book. They run to her and say, "Mom, we are hungry. The fridge is empty. Can you feed us?"
+
+Mom puts down her book and smiles. She says, "Of course, I can feed you. I have a surprise for you. Come with me." She takes Tom and Lily by the hand and leads them to the backyard. There, they see a big picnic basket on a blanket. The basket is full of food. There are sandwiches, fruits, cookies, and juice.
+
+Tom and Lily are happy. They clap their hands and say, "Wow, mom, you are the best. This is a great surprise. Thank you for feeding us." They sit on the blanket and eat the food. They share and talk and laugh. They enjoy the picnic. They are not hungry anymore. They are full and happy.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park with their toys. They liked to pretend they were pirates and had a big ship. They used sticks and leaves to make swords and hats.
+
+"Arrr, matey, we need to find some treasure!" Ben said, waving his stick.
+
+"Let's look over there, by the slide!" Anna said, pointing with her leaf.
+
+They ran to the slide and climbed up. They saw a shiny coin on the ground. They were very happy and put it in their pocket.
+
+"Wow, we are rich pirates now!" Anna said.
+
+"Maybe we can buy some pizza with our coin!" Ben said.
+
+"Pizza? What is pizza?" Anna asked.
+
+Ben was surprised. He loved pizza. It was his favorite food. He tried to explain.
+
+"Pizza is a round thing with cheese and sauce and other things on top. You cut it and eat it. It is very yummy!" Ben said.
+
+Anna thought it sounded good. She wanted to try pizza.
+
+"Can we go and get some pizza now?" Anna asked.
+
+Ben nodded. He was hungry too. They got down from the slide and ran to their mom, who was sitting on a bench.
+
+"Mom, mom, can we have pizza?" they both said.
+
+Mom smiled. She was glad they had fun.
+
+"Sure, we can have pizza. But first, you need to wash your hands. They are filthy from playing!" Mom said.
+
+Anna and Ben looked at their hands. They were dirty and sticky. They did not like that.
+
+"Okay, mom, we will wash our hands. But hurry, we want pizza!" they said.
+
+Mom laughed. She took them to the bathroom and helped them wash their hands. Then they went to the pizza place and ordered a big pizza with cheese and pepperoni. They ate it and enjoyed it very much.
+
+"Pizza is the best treasure ever!" Anna said.
+
+Ben agreed. He was glad he mentioned pizza to Anna. They were happy pirates.
+Lily and Ben were twins who loved to swim. They had a big pool in their backyard, where they played with their toys and splashed each other. One day, they saw something shiny at the bottom of the pool. It was a jewel!
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Lily said. "It is so pretty and sparkly. I want to get it."
+
+"Me too," Ben said. "But it is very deep. How can we reach it?"
+
+They thought for a moment. Then they had an idea. They put on their goggles and held their breath. They dived into the water and swam as fast as they could. They got closer and closer to the jewel.
+
+They stretched out their hands and touched it at the same time. It was cold and smooth. They smiled at each other and grabbed it. They swam back to the surface and gasped for air.
+
+They looked at the jewel in their hands. It was blue and green and had many shapes. It was the most beautiful thing they had ever seen.
+
+"Wow, we did it!" Lily said. "We found a treasure!"
+
+"Yay, we are so lucky!" Ben said. "Let's show it to Mom and Dad!"
+
+They ran to the house, holding the jewel tightly. They were very happy and proud. They had a big adventure in their pool.
+One day, a little fox was playing in the woods with his friends. He liked to run, jump and chase butterflies. He was happy and free.
+
+But then, he saw a big truck on the road. It was loud and scary. The truck had a cage on the back. The little fox was curious and went closer to see. He did not know that the truck belonged to a bad man who wanted to catch foxes.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" his friend, a rabbit, called to him. "That truck is dangerous. Come back here!"
+
+The little fox did not listen. He wanted to touch the cage. He thought it was a toy. He put his paw inside the cage. But then, the cage door slammed shut. The little fox was trapped. He was scared and sad.
+
+"Help! Help!" he cried. "Let me out!"
+
+The bad man heard him and smiled. He got out of the truck and walked towards the cage. He was happy and greedy. He wanted to sell the little fox for money.
+
+"Ha, ha, ha! I got you, you silly fox!" he said. "You are mine now. I will take you far away and you will never see your friends again."
+
+The little fox was troubled. He wished he had listened to his friend. He wished he had never left the woods. He wished he could escape. But it was too late. The bad man put the cage in the truck and drove away. The little fox was alone and afraid. He did not know what would happen to him. He hoped that someone would save him. He hoped that he would see his friends again. He hoped that he would be free again.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They had a big shield made of cardboard and some sticks. They pretended to be knights and dragons. Lily was the knight and Ben was the dragon.
+
+But then, a mean boy came and saw their shield. He wanted it for himself. He ran to them and tried to grab the shield. He said, "Give me that shield! It is mine now!"
+
+Lily and Ben did not like that. They said, "No! It is our shield! We made it! Go away!" They held on to the shield and pulled it back. The mean boy was stronger and he pulled harder. He was about to steal the shield.
+
+But then, Lily had an idea. She saw a cart with some yummy cookies on it. The cart was near the mean boy. Lily said, "Look! Cookies! Yummy cookies!" She pointed to the cart.
+
+The mean boy looked and saw the cookies. He liked cookies. He let go of the shield and ran to the cart. He tried to take some cookies. But the cart belonged to a lady who was selling them. She saw the mean boy and said, "Hey! Stop! You cannot steal my cookies!"
+
+Lily and Ben took their shield and ran away. They were happy. They had their shield and they had each other. They said, "We are the best knights and dragons ever!" They played some more and had fun.
+Lily liked to sing. She sang when she woke up, when she played, and when she ate. She sang happy songs and silly songs and made-up songs. She sang to her toys, her mom, and her cat.
+
+One morning, she wanted to sing to her dad. He was in the kitchen, making toast. Lily ran to him and hugged his leg. "Dad, dad, can I sing to you?" she asked.
+
+Dad looked down at her and smiled. "Sure, sweetie, what do you want to sing?" he said.
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She wanted to sing a song that would make dad happy. She remembered a song that mom taught her. It was about the sun and the sky and the birds. She opened her mouth and started to sing.
+
+But before she could finish the first line, a loud beep beep beep came from the toaster. Dad turned around and saw smoke coming out of it. He dropped the knife and grabbed the toaster. He tried to pull out the toast, but it was stuck. He burned his fingers and yelled, "Ow, ow, ow!"
+
+Lily stopped singing. She felt scared and sad. She did not like the smoke and the noise and dad's yell. She did not like to see dad hurt. She started to cry.
+
+Dad put the toaster on the sink and ran water over his fingers. He looked at Lily and saw her tears. He felt sorry and guilty. He forgot to watch the toast. He ruined Lily's song. He hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, sweetie, I'm sorry. Are you okay?"
+
+Lily nodded, but she did not stop crying. She did not want to sing anymore. She felt like the toast: burned and gloomy. She wished she had never asked dad to listen to her song. She wished she had never sung at all.
+Mira loved to perform. She liked to sing and dance and make people happy. She had a big show at school and she practiced a lot. She wanted to do her best.
+
+But on the day of the show, Mira felt troubled. Her throat was sore and her voice was weak. She was afraid she could not sing well. She did not want to let her friends and teacher down. She did not want to disappoint the people who came to watch.
+
+She told her mom how she felt. Her mom hugged her and gave her a mint. She said, "This will help your throat feel better. And remember, you are not alone. You have your friends and teacher to support you. And you have your talent and passion to shine. Just do your best and have fun. I am proud of you no matter what."
+
+Mira smiled and thanked her mom. She felt a little better. She put the mint in her mouth and went to the stage. She saw her friends and teacher smiling at her. She saw the people clapping and cheering for her. She felt happy and excited. She forgot her sore throat and weak voice. She performed with all her heart and soul. She sang and danced and made people happy.
+
+The people loved her performance. They gave her a big applause and a lot of compliments. Mira felt proud and grateful. She learned that even when she was troubled, she could overcome her fears and challenges with the help of her mom, her friends, her teacher, and her mint. She learned that performing was not only about being perfect, but also about being brave, joyful, and expressive. She learned that she was a star.
+Lily liked to play golf with her dad. Golf was a game where you hit a small ball with a stick and try to make it go into a hole. Lily had a pink stick and a pink ball. Her dad had a big stick and a white ball.
+
+One day, they went to a big field with many holes and flags. Lily and her dad took turns to hit their balls. Lily was very happy when her ball went near the hole. Her dad was very proud of her.
+
+But then, a naughty dog came running to the field. The dog saw the balls and wanted to play with them. He ran after Lily's ball and picked it up with his mouth. He ran away with it, wagging his tail.
+
+Lily was very sad. She wanted her ball back. Her dad tried to catch the dog, but he was too fast. The dog ran to a pond and dropped the ball in the water. The ball got wet and dirty.
+
+Lily cried. Her ball was not clean anymore. Her dad hugged her and said, "Don't worry, Lily. We can get another ball. And we can prevent the dog from taking it again. We can put our balls in a bag when we are not using them. And we can ask the dog's owner to keep him on a leash. Then we can play golf again and have fun."
+
+Lily nodded. She liked her dad's idea. She dried her tears and smiled. She and her dad got a new ball and put it in a bag. They looked for the dog's owner and told him what happened. The owner was sorry and said he would keep the dog on a leash. He also gave Lily a treat for being brave.
+
+Lily thanked the owner and the dog. She and her dad went back to the field and played golf again. They had a lot of fun. Lily's ball was clean and safe. And the dog was happy too. He watched them from a distance and barked. He liked to see them play.
+Lily was an adventurous girl who liked to explore new things. She loved books and stories, and always wanted to see what was on the top shelf of the big bookcase in her room. But she was too small to reach it, and her mom said it was not safe to climb on the bookcase.
+
+One day, when her mom was busy in the kitchen, Lily had an idea. She dragged a chair from the table and put it next to the bookcase. She climbed on the chair and stretched her arm to grab a book from the top shelf. She was so excited to see what it was. Maybe it was a fairy tale, or a book about animals, or a book with pictures and puzzles.
+
+But as she pulled the book, she heard a loud crash. The book was too heavy and it made the whole shelf tip over. Books, toys, and knick-knacks fell on the floor, and some of them hit Lily and the chair. Lily screamed and fell off the chair. She was scared and hurt, and she started to cry.
+
+Her mom heard the noise and ran to her room. She saw the mess and Lily on the floor. She rushed to hug her and check if she was okay. She was relieved to see that Lily only had a few scratches and bruises, but she was also angry and worried.
+
+"Lily, what did you do? You could have been seriously hurt! You know you are not supposed to climb on the bookcase. Why did you do that?" her mom asked.
+
+Lily sniffed and looked at the book in her hand. It was a big book with a blue cover and a picture of a boat. It said "Soak: A History of Water and Civilization".
+
+"I wanted to see what this book was about. It looked interesting. I'm sorry, mom. I was just curious. I like books," Lily said.
+
+Her mom sighed and shook her head. She took the book from Lily and put it on the bed. She helped Lily clean up the mess and put the bookcase back in place. She told Lily that she was glad she liked books, but she had to be careful and ask for help when she wanted to read something. She also told her that the book was not for children, and it was very boring and hard to understand.
+
+Lily nodded and said she was sorry again. She hugged her mom and said she loved her. Her mom smiled and said she loved her too. She gave her a kiss and a band-aid, and told her to rest for a while.
+
+Lily lay down on her bed and looked at the book. She wondered what it was about. She wondered what water and civilization had to do with each other. She wondered if there were any stories or pictures in it. She was still curious and adventurous, but she decided to wait until she was older and taller to find out.
+Jill and Tom like to play in the park. They see a big red truck with a loud siren. It is a fireman truck. They want to see the fireman and the truck.
+
+"Can we go, Mommy?" Jill asks.
+
+"OK, but be careful and stay close," Mommy says.
+
+Jill and Tom run to the fireman truck. They see a fireman with a yellow hat and a big hose. He is nice and smiles at them.
+
+"Hello, kids. Do you like my truck?" the fireman asks.
+
+"Yes, we do. It is pretty and shiny," Jill says.
+
+"Can we pick your hat?" Tom asks.
+
+"Sorry, no. This hat is very important. It helps me stay safe when I fight fires," the fireman says.
+
+Jill and Tom nod. They understand. They look at the truck some more. They see a ladder, a bell, and a fire axe.
+
+"Can we pick your axe?" Jill asks.
+
+"Sorry, no. This axe is very sharp and dangerous. It helps me break doors and windows when I rescue people," the fireman says.
+
+Jill and Tom nod. They understand. They look at the truck some more. They see a shiny button.
+
+"Can we pick your button?" Tom asks.
+
+"Sorry, no. This button is very special. It makes the siren go on and off. It helps me warn people and cars when I drive fast," the fireman says.
+
+Jill and Tom nod. They understand. But they are curious. They want to hear the siren. They wait until the fireman is busy talking to another fireman. Then they sneak to the button. They pick it.
+
+The siren goes on. It is very loud. It hurts their ears. It scares them. They cry.
+
+The fireman hears the siren. He turns around. He sees Jill and Tom. He is angry. He runs to them. He picks them up. He puts them down. He yells at them.
+
+"What did you do? You are very naughty. You could have caused an accident. You could have hurt someone. You are in big trouble," the fireman says.
+
+Mommy hears the siren. She sees Jill and Tom. She is worried. She runs to them. She sees the fireman. She is sorry. She apologizes to the fireman. She picks up Jill and Tom. She takes them away. She scolds them.
+
+"You are very naughty. You did not listen to the fireman. You did not listen to me. You touched something you should not have. You are in big trouble," Mommy says.
+
+Jill and Tom are very sad. They are very sorry. They did not mean to be naughty. They did not mean to make the fireman and Mommy angry. They did not mean to make the siren go on. They just wanted to have fun. But they did not have fun. They had a bad day. They wish they did not pick the button.
+Lily and Ben were playing with blocks. They liked to build towers and houses and cars. Lily had a lot of blocks, but Ben only had a few. Ben wanted more blocks, so he asked Lily to share.
+
+"Can I have some of your blocks, please?" Ben said.
+
+"No, they are mine. Go find your own blocks," Lily said.
+
+"But you have so many. I only have a few. Please, Lily, be nice," Ben said.
+
+"No, no, no. Go away, Ben. These are my blocks," Lily said.
+
+Ben felt sad and angry. He wanted to play with Lily, but she was not nice. He looked at Lily's tower. It was very tall and had many colors. Ben had an idea. He ran to Lily's tower and pushed it hard. The tower fell down and the blocks went everywhere. Lily was shocked and mad.
+
+"Ben, what did you do? You broke my tower. You are mean," Lily said.
+
+"I don't care. You were mean to me. You did not share your blocks. Now you have no blocks," Ben said.
+
+Lily and Ben started to yell at each other. They did not want to play together anymore. They snapped at each other and said bad words. They did not have fun.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw the blocks all over the floor and Lily and Ben crying and fighting. She was not happy.
+
+"What is going on here? Why are you two fighting? Why did you break the blocks?" Mom said.
+
+"Lily did not share her blocks. She was mean to me. So I broke her tower," Ben said.
+
+"Ben broke my tower. He was mean to me. He ruined my blocks," Lily said.
+
+Mom sighed. She picked up some of the blocks and held them in her hand. She felt their weight. They were not heavy, but they were important. They were toys for playing and learning and sharing. She looked at Lily and Ben. They were not happy, but they were important. They were her children and they needed to love and respect each other.
+
+"Listen, Lily and Ben. I know you both like to play with blocks. But blocks are not just for you. They are for everyone. You need to share them and take turns. You also need to be careful with them. They are not for breaking and throwing. They are for building and creating. And most of all, you need to be kind to each other. You are brother and sister. You should not snap at each other and say bad words. You should help each other and say nice words. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They felt sorry for what they did. They knew Mom was right. They hugged Mom and said sorry.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom. We were not nice. We will share the blocks and be kind to each other," Lily and Ben said.
+
+"That's good. I'm glad you learned your lesson. Now, why don't you clean up the blocks and then you can play together again. Maybe you can build something great together," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They liked that idea. They picked up the blocks and put them in a box. Then they took some blocks and started to build a new tower. They helped each other and said nice words. They had fun. They were happy.
+Tom and Jen were playing hide and seek in the park. Tom was the seeker and Jen was the hider. Jen ran to a big tree and hid behind it. She hoped Tom would not find her.
+
+Tom looked around the park. He saw many places where Jen could hide. He saw a slide, a swing, a bench, and a fountain. He did not see Jen. He wondered where she was.
+
+Then he saw a man walking towards the tree where Jen was hiding. The man had a big bag and a hat. He looked like a stranger. Tom felt scared. He wanted to warn Jen, but he did not want to reveal his hiding spot.
+
+The man reached the tree and saw Jen. He smiled and said hello. He asked Jen if she wanted to see what was in his bag. He said he had a surprise for her. Jen was curious. She liked surprises. She nodded and followed the man.
+
+Tom saw Jen and the man walk away. He ran after them. He shouted Jen's name. He wanted to stop them. But he was too late. The man and Jen got into a car and drove away. Tom was left alone in the park. He cried and cried. He did not know what to do. He wished he had revealed Jen's hiding spot. He wished he had not played hide and seek. He wished he had stayed with Jen. He wished the stranger had not taken her. He wished Jen was fit and safe. But he knew she was not. He knew he had lost her. He knew it was a bad ending.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play on the beach. They find many shells in the sand. Some shells are big, some shells are small. Some shells are smooth, some shells are rough.
+
+One day, they see a big shell with a hole. Anna wants to look inside. She is curious. She puts her eye near the hole. She sees something shiny. She thinks it is a pearl.
+
+"Ben, look! I found a pearl!" she says.
+
+Ben wants to see too. He is excited. He grabs the shell from Anna. He is not careful. He shakes the shell hard.
+
+"Ow!" he cries. He drops the shell. A crab comes out of the hole. It pinches his finger. He is hurt.
+
+Anna feels sorry for Ben. She picks up the shell. She sees a book inside. It is not a pearl. It is a book. She is surprised.
+
+"Ben, it is not a pearl. It is a book!" she says.
+
+Ben stops crying. He is curious. He looks at the book. It has pictures and words. He likes books. He can read some words.
+
+"Can we read the book?" he asks.
+
+Anna nods. She is happy. She opens the book. She reads the title. It says: "Be Careful with Shells. They Have Secrets."
+
+Anna and Ben smile. They sit on the sand. They read the book together. They learn about shells and crabs and other things. They are careful with shells. They are happy. They share the book.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be careful with shells. They have secrets. And share what you find with others.
+Tim and Lily wanted to see a movie at the theater. They asked their mom, but she said no. She said they had to clean their room first. It was filthy, with toys and clothes everywhere.
+
+Tim and Lily did not want to clean their room. They wanted to see the movie. They had a plan. They would sneak out of the house and go to the theater by themselves. They waited until their mom was busy in the kitchen. Then they put on their coats and shoes and ran out of the door.
+
+They walked to the theater. It was not far. They saw the big sign with the movie name. They were happy. They went inside and bought two tickets. They succeed. They found two seats and sat down. They waited for the movie to start.
+
+But they did not know that their mom had seen them. She had looked out of the window and saw them running away. She was angry and worried. She called their dad and told him what happened. He said he would meet her at the theater.
+
+They got to the theater just as the movie was starting. They looked for Tim and Lily. They saw them in the front row. They walked up to them and grabbed their arms. They pulled them out of their seats and dragged them out of the theater.
+
+Tim and Lily were scared and sad. They had to leave the movie. They had to face their mom and dad. They knew they were in big trouble. They wished they had cleaned their room. They learned a hard lesson. The end.
+Ben and Lily like to go to the park with Mom. They like to see the ducks in the pond. The ducks are regular ducks. They have brown and white feathers and yellow beaks. They quack and swim and eat bread.
+
+One day, Ben and Lily see a new duck in the pond. The new duck is not regular. It has green and blue feathers and a red beak. It does not quack. It makes a loud noise like a horn. Ben and Lily think the new duck is funny. They want to give it some bread.
+
+But the regular ducks do not like the new duck. They think the new duck is strange. They do not want to share the pond or the bread. They start to fight with the new duck. They peck and flap and splash. The new duck tries to fight back. It honks and bites and kicks.
+
+Ben and Lily are scared. They do not like to see the ducks fight. They run to Mom and tell her what is happening. Mom says the new duck is a goose. She says the goose is lost and needs to find its family. She says the ducks are scared and angry and need to calm down.
+
+Mom takes Ben and Lily to another part of the park. They see some squirrels and some flowers and some swings. They have fun and forget about the ducks and the goose. They hope the ducks and the goose will stop fighting and be friends.
+Lily and Ben were very excited. Today was the day of the big firework show. They had been waiting for a long time to see the bright and loud fireworks in the sky.
+
+"Can we go now, Mom?" Lily asked. "I want to see the fireworks!"
+
+"Not yet, sweetie," Mom said. "We have to measure how far we are from the firework place. We don't want to be too close or too far."
+
+Mom took out a long tape and asked Lily and Ben to help her. They held the tape and walked away from the firework place until Mom said stop. Then they looked at the tape and saw how many numbers it had.
+
+"We are twenty numbers away from the firework place," Mom said. "That is a good distance. We can see the fireworks well and not be scared by the noise."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They were happy to help Mom measure. They hoped the firework show would start soon.
+
+They sat on a big blanket and waited. They saw many other people and children waiting too. They heard some music and some talking from a loud speaker.
+
+Then, the sky became dark and the firework show began. Lily and Ben clapped and cheered as they saw the fireworks. They saw fireworks that were red, blue, green, yellow, and purple. They saw fireworks that made shapes like stars, hearts, and flowers. They saw fireworks that sparkled and crackled and popped.
+
+They felt the light and the heat and the sound of the fireworks. They felt happy and amazed and curious. They asked Mom many questions about the fireworks. Mom answered them and hugged them.
+
+They watched the firework show until the end. They saw the last firework that was the biggest and the brightest of all. They said wow and ooh and aah.
+
+They thanked Mom for taking them to the firework show. They said it was the best firework show ever. They said they loved fireworks and they loved Mom. Mom smiled and said she loved them too. They went home and dreamed of fireworks.
+Lily and Ben were young friends who liked to paint. They had many colors and brushes and paper. They painted flowers and trees and animals and houses. They were happy when they painted.
+
+One day, they went to the park with their moms. They saw a big pond with ducks and fish. They wanted to swim in the pond. They asked their moms if they could swim. Their moms said no. The pond was not for swimming. It was dirty and deep and cold. They could get sick or hurt if they swam in the pond.
+
+But Lily and Ben did not listen. They waited until their moms were busy talking. They ran to the pond and jumped in. They splashed and laughed and felt the water on their skin. They thought they were having fun.
+
+But soon they felt something was wrong. The water was muddy and smelly and made their eyes sting. They could not see the ducks or the fish. They could not see each other. They could not see the shore. They were scared and cold and sorry.
+
+They cried for help. Their moms heard them and ran to the pond. They pulled them out of the water and wrapped them in towels. They were angry and worried. They scolded them for being naughty and foolish. They said they could have drowned or got sick.
+
+Lily and Ben felt ashamed and sad. They said they were sorry. They said they would not do it again. They said they would listen to their moms. They said they would rather paint than swim in the pond.
+
+Their moms hugged them and forgave them. They said they loved them and wanted them to be safe and happy. They said they could paint at home. They said they could swim in a pool or a beach when it was warm and clean.
+
+Lily and Ben learned their lesson. They learned to obey their moms. They learned to respect the pond and the animals. They learned to be careful and smart. They learned to enjoy painting and swimming in the right places.
+Lila and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to slide and swing and run. But then it started to rain. The rain was fierce and made them wet.
+
+"Let's go home," Tom said. "I don't like the rain."
+
+"No, let's stay," Lila said. "The rain is fun. We can splash and make mud pies."
+
+Tom did not want to stay. He wanted to go home and be dry and warm. But Lila did not listen. She ran to the puddle and jumped in. She laughed and shouted.
+
+"Come on, Tom, join me," she said. "Don't be scared of the rain."
+
+Tom did not want to join her. He was scared of the rain. He thought the rain was bad. He wanted Lila to accept that they had to go home. But Lila did not accept. She stayed in the puddle and played.
+
+Then a big thunder came. It was loud and scary. Tom and Lila looked up and saw a dark cloud. The cloud had a flash of light. The light was bright and angry.
+
+"Run, Lila, run," Tom said. "The thunder is coming. It will hurt us."
+
+But Lila did not run. She did not hear Tom. She was too busy playing in the puddle. She did not see the flash of light. She did not feel the thunder.
+
+Tom ran to Lila and tried to pull her out of the puddle. But it was too late. The flash of light hit Lila and made her fall. She did not move. She did not laugh. She did not shout.
+
+Tom cried and cried. He wished he had gone home. He wished Lila had listened. He wished the rain had stopped. But the rain did not stop. The rain was fierce and made them wet.
+Rani and her brother Ravi were playing in the forest. They liked to pretend they were brave hunters, looking for animals to catch. They had sticks that they called spears, and they threw them at the trees and rocks.
+
+"Look, Rani, a deer!" Ravi shouted, pointing at a brown shape in the bushes. He ran towards it, holding his spear. Rani followed him, but she was scared. She did not want to hurt the deer. She liked animals.
+
+"Stop, Ravi, stop!" she cried. "The deer is not our enemy. It is our friend. It does not want to fight us. It is afraid of us."
+
+But Ravi did not listen. He threw his spear at the deer, hoping to hit it. The deer saw the spear and jumped away. It ran as fast as it could, leaving Ravi and Rani behind.
+
+Ravi was angry. He wanted to catch the deer. He wanted to show his father that he was a good hunter. He picked up his spear and chased the deer. Rani ran after him, trying to stop him.
+
+"Ravi, come back, come back!" she pleaded. "The deer is gone. You cannot catch it. You will get lost in the forest. You will meet bad things that will hurt you."
+
+But Ravi did not listen. He ran deeper and deeper into the forest, following the deer's tracks. He did not see the big shadow that was watching him from behind a tree. He did not hear the low growl that came from its mouth. He did not smell the danger that was near him.
+
+Rani saw the shadow. She saw the big teeth and the sharp claws. She saw the yellow eyes and the black fur. She knew what it was. It was a bear. A big, angry bear that did not like hunters. A bear that wanted to eat Ravi.
+
+Rani was terrified. She wanted to run away. She wanted to hide. She wanted to go home. But she loved her brother. She did not want him to die. She had to save him.
+
+She grabbed her spear and ran towards the bear. She shouted as loud as she could, hoping to scare it away. She threw her spear at the bear, hoping to hurt it.
+
+The bear saw Rani. It saw the spear. It saw the courage. It was surprised. It was confused. It was troubled. It did not expect a little girl to attack it. It did not know what to do.
+
+It roared and swung its paw, trying to hit Rani. But Rani was quick. She dodged the paw and ran to Ravi. She grabbed his hand and pulled him away from the bear. She ran as fast as she could, back to the forest path.
+
+The bear did not follow them. It was still troubled. It was still confused. It was still surprised. It decided to leave them alone. It decided to find another meal. It decided to go back to its den.
+
+Rani and Ravi were safe. They were out of the forest. They were near their home. They were happy.
+
+But Ravi was also ashamed. He was ashamed that he had been foolish. He was ashamed that he had been reckless. He was ashamed that he had been scared.
+
+He looked at Rani. He saw the spear in her hand. He saw the bravery in her eyes. He saw the love in her heart.
+
+He hugged her and said, "Thank you, Rani. Thank you for saving me. Thank you for being my sister. Thank you for being my hero."
+
+Rani hugged him back and said, "You're welcome, Ravi. You're welcome for being my brother. You're welcome for being my friend. You're welcome for being my partner."
+
+They smiled and walked home, holding hands. They had learned a lesson. They had had an adventure. They had grown up a little. They had trembled a lot.
+Tom and Lily liked to play on the beach. They made sand castles and looked for shells. They had a lovely time.
+
+But Tom did not like the water. He was afraid of the big waves. He refused to go near the sea. Lily tried to make him come with her, but he said no.
+
+One day, Lily found a shiny starfish on the sand. She was very happy. She wanted to show it to Tom. She ran to him and said, "Look, Tom, look what I found!"
+
+But Tom did not look. He was busy with his sand castle. He said, "Go away, Lily, I don't care about your starfish."
+
+Lily felt sad. She put the starfish back on the sand and walked away. She did not see that the tide was coming in. The water was getting closer and closer to the starfish.
+
+Soon, the starfish was covered by the water. It was happy. It swam away to join its friends.
+
+But Tom's sand castle was also covered by the water. It was washed away by the waves. Tom was sad. He cried and cried.
+
+He looked for Lily, but he could not find her. She had gone to play with some other children. They had a lovely time.
+
+Tom wished he had been nicer to Lily. He wished he had seen her starfish. He wished he had not refused to go near the sea. He learned a lesson that day. He learned that the tide can take away things, but it can also give back things. He learned that he should not be afraid of the water, but enjoy it. He learned that he should be kind to his sister, and share her joy.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to bounce on their bed. They bounce up and down, up and down. They laugh and shout.
+
+"Mom, can we go to the restaurant?" Anna asks. "I want pizza!"
+
+"Me too!" Ben says.
+
+Mom says, "OK, but you have to stop bouncing and get ready. The restaurant is far away. We have to take the bus."
+
+Anna and Ben stop bouncing. They put on their shoes and coats. They follow Mom to the bus stop. They wait for the bus.
+
+The bus comes. It is big and yellow. Mom says, "Come on, let's get on the bus." She holds Anna's hand. Ben holds Mom's other hand.
+
+But Ben sees a dog. The dog is black and white. It has a ball in its mouth. Ben likes dogs. He likes balls. He lets go of Mom's hand. He runs to the dog.
+
+"Ben, no!" Mom shouts. "Come back!"
+
+But Ben does not hear Mom. He tries to take the ball from the dog. The dog does not like that. The dog growls. The dog bites Ben.
+
+Ben cries. He drops the ball. He holds his arm. It hurts. It bleeds.
+
+Mom runs to Ben. She picks him up. She hugs him. She says, "Oh, Ben, I'm so sorry. You are hurt. We have to go to the hospital."
+
+Anna watches. She is scared. She does not want to go to the restaurant. She does not want pizza. She wants Ben to be OK. She wants to bounce on the bed. She wants to laugh and shout. But she can't. She is sad.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pond with ducks and swans. Lila wants to go near the pond and feed the birds. Ben is scared of the water and says no.
+
+"Please, Ben, come with me. It will be fun. Look at the swans, they are so graceful. They have long necks and white feathers. They make nice sounds. Maybe they are hungry. I have some bread for them." Lila says.
+
+"No, Lila, it is not safe. The pond is deep and cold. The birds might bite you. And mom said we have to wait here until she comes back. She will be mad if we go away." Ben says.
+
+But Lila does not listen. She runs to the pond with the bread. She throws some pieces to the swans. They swim to her and eat the bread. Lila is happy. She wants to touch the swans. She leans over the edge of the pond and reaches out her hand.
+
+But then, something bad happens. One of the swans snaps at her hand. Lila is scared and pulls back. She loses her balance and falls into the pond. She screams and splashes. The water is deep and cold. She cannot swim. She sinks under the water.
+
+Ben hears her scream and runs to the pond. He sees her disappear under the water. He cries and calls for help. But no one is there. Mom is not back yet. Lila is gone. Ben is alone. He is sad and sorry. He wishes he had stopped Lila from going to the pond. He wishes he had been a better friend.
+Tom and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park and look for treasure. Treasure was anything shiny or pretty that they found on the ground. Sometimes they found coins, buttons, or beads. They put them in a box and kept them in Tom's room.
+
+One day, they found a big treasure. It was a necklace with a heart pendant. It sparkled in the sun and made them happy. They decided to share it. Tom put it around Lily's neck and said, "You can wear it today, and I can wear it tomorrow." Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, Tom. You are very kind."
+
+They hugged and gave each other a kiss on the cheek. They did not know that kisses were difficult for some people. They only knew that kisses were nice and made them feel good. They did not care what other people thought. They were happy with their treasure and their friendship. They ran to the swings and had more fun. They were best friends forever.
+Tom and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw a vendor with a big cart. The vendor had many bright things on the cart. He had balloons, hats, toys, and candy.
+
+"Look, Mom, can we have something?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, you can each choose one thing," Mom said.
+
+Tom ran to the cart and picked a toy. It was a spinner. He pushed a button and the spinner made colors and sounds. It was fun to watch it spin.
+
+Lily looked at the balloons. They were big and round and had different colors. She liked the pink one. She asked the vendor for the pink balloon.
+
+"Here you go, little girl," the vendor said. He tied the balloon to a string and gave it to Lily.
+
+"Thank you, sir," Lily said.
+
+Tom and Lily were happy with their things. They thanked Mom and the vendor. They played with their spinner and balloon in the park. They had a good time.
+Tom and Amy were playing in the garden. They liked to run, jump and chase each other. They also liked to look at the flowers, the birds and the bugs. They were having fun.
+
+But then, the sky became dark and grey. They heard a loud noise. It was thunder. They saw a flash. It was lightning. They felt drops. It was rain. They were scared.
+
+"Let's go inside!" Tom said to Amy. "It is not safe here!"
+
+They ran to the door. They tried to open it. But it was locked. They knocked and knocked. But no one answered. They were wet and cold.
+
+"Where is Mommy?" Amy asked. "Why is she not here?"
+
+"I don't know," Tom said. "Maybe she went to the store. Maybe she will come back soon."
+
+They looked around. They saw a big window. It was open. They saw a room. It had furniture. It had a sofa, a table, a chair and a lamp. It looked warm and cozy.
+
+"Maybe we can enter there," Tom said. "Maybe we can wait for Mommy there."
+
+They climbed on a box. They reached the window. They crawled inside. They sat on the sofa. They felt dry and warm.
+
+They heard a voice. It was a lady. She was not Mommy. She was the neighbor. She saw them through the window. She came to the door. She opened it.
+
+"Hello, Tom and Amy," she said. "What are you doing here?"
+
+"We were playing in the garden," Tom said. "But it rained. And the door was locked. And Mommy was not here. So we entered here. We are sorry."
+
+The lady smiled. She was kind. She was not angry. She said, "Don't worry, Tom and Amy. You are welcome here. I am glad you are safe. Mommy called me. She is on her way. She will be here soon. Do you want some cookies and milk?"
+
+Tom and Amy nodded. They were hungry. They said, "Yes, please. Thank you, lady. You are very kind."
+
+The lady gave them cookies and milk. They ate and drank. They felt happy. They waited for Mommy. They liked the lady. They liked the furniture. They liked the room. They were glad they entered there.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the backyard. They liked to pretend they were explorers, looking for new things. They saw a big bush with many leaves. They wondered what was behind it.
+
+"Let's go and see!" Lily said. She was brave and curious.
+
+"OK, but be careful!" Ben said. He was a little scared, but he followed his sister.
+
+They pushed the leaves aside and saw a small wooden house. It had a door and a window, but no one was inside. It looked old and mysterious.
+
+"Wow, what is this?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it's a secret hideout," Ben said.
+
+They decided to peek inside the window. They saw a table, a chair, a bed, and some books. They also saw something else. It was a chicken. A big, white chicken. It was sitting on the bed, looking at them.
+
+"Hello, chicken!" Lily said. She smiled and waved.
+
+The chicken did not smile or wave back. It made a loud noise. "Bawk! Bawk! Bawk!"
+
+Lily and Ben were surprised. They did not expect the chicken to talk. They did not know what it was saying.
+
+"Shh, chicken, don't be noisy!" Ben said. He was afraid someone would hear them.
+
+The chicken did not listen. It kept making noise. "Bawk! Bawk! Bawk!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They did not like the chicken. They thought it was angry and mean. They ran away from the window. They ran back to the bush. They ran back to their house.
+
+They did not want to play in the backyard anymore. They wanted to stay inside, where it was warm and safe. They shivered and hugged each other.
+
+They never went near the mysterious house again. They never saw the chicken again. They wondered who lived there and why they had a chicken. They never found out.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs and worms. They found a big brown thing that looked like a stick, but it was soft and smelly.
+
+"Yuck, what is this?" Lily asked, holding her nose.
+
+"I think it is a dead tree," Ben said, poking it with his finger. "It is rotting. That means it is breaking down and turning into dirt."
+
+"Can we keep it?" Lily asked, looking at it with curiosity.
+
+"No, we can't," Ben said, shaking his head. "It is not good for us. It might have germs or bugs that can make us sick. We should throw it away."
+
+He picked up the dead tree and threw it over the fence. As he did, he saw something fall out of it. It was a small piece of paper with writing on it.
+
+"Look, a note!" he exclaimed, running to pick it up.
+
+"What does it say?" Lily asked, following him.
+
+Ben looked at the note, but he could not read it. It had big words and small words and numbers and symbols. He did not know what they meant.
+
+"I don't know," he said, frowning. "Maybe it is a secret message. Maybe someone hid it in the dead tree."
+
+"Who do you think it is from?" Lily asked, looking at the note.
+
+"Maybe it is from a pirate," Ben said, making up a story. "Maybe he buried his treasure here and left this note as a clue. Maybe we can find it if we dig more."
+
+"Or maybe it is from a fairy," Lily said, making up another story. "Maybe she lives in the garden and left this note as a gift. Maybe we can see her if we look carefully."
+
+They decided to keep the note and look for more clues. They did not know that the note was actually a receipt from a hardware store that someone had thrown away with the dead tree. They did not care. They had fun imagining and playing.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, their dad came home with a big surprise. He had a new automobile that was shiny and red. He parked it in the driveway and called the twins to come and see.
+
+"Look, Sara and Ben, this is our new automobile. It can take us to many places, like the park, the zoo, and grandma's house. It is very useful and fun. Do you want to introduce yourselves to it?" he asked.
+
+Sara and Ben nodded and ran to the automobile. They touched the doors, the wheels, and the horn. They said hello to the automobile and told it their names. The automobile beeped back and flashed its lights. Sara and Ben giggled and hugged the automobile.
+
+"Can we go for a ride, dad?" they asked.
+
+"Sure, but first we have to buckle up and follow the rules. Safety first, remember?" dad said.
+
+He helped them get into their seats and fastened their belts. He got into the driver's seat and started the engine. The automobile made a loud noise and moved forward.
+
+"Here we go, Sara and Ben. Are you ready for an adventure?" dad said.
+
+"Yes, dad. We love our new automobile. Thank you, dad!" Sara and Ben said.
+
+They drove away, happy and excited. They did not know that the automobile had a secret. It could talk and fly. But that is another story.
+Tom and Mia went to the park with Mom. They saw a big pond with many ducks. Tom and Mia liked the ducks. They wanted to feed them bread.
+
+"Can we feed the ducks, Mom?" Tom asked.
+
+"Yes, but be gentle and don't scare them," Mom said.
+
+Tom and Mia took some bread from Mom and broke it into small pieces. They threw the pieces into the pond. The ducks came and ate the bread. They quacked and splashed. Tom and Mia laughed and clapped.
+
+One duck was very sleepy. It did not eat the bread. It floated on the water and closed its eyes. Tom and Mia saw the sleepy duck.
+
+"Why is that duck sleepy, Mom?" Mia asked.
+
+"Maybe it had a long day, or maybe it is sick, or maybe it is just tired," Mom said.
+
+"Can we take the sleepy duck home, Mom?" Tom asked.
+
+"No, we can't take the sleepy duck home, Tom," Mom said. "The duck belongs to the pond. It has its own family and friends here. It would be sad and lonely at our house."
+
+"But we can be its family and friends, Mom," Tom said.
+
+"I know, but the duck is happy here, Tom," Mom said. "We can visit the duck again, but we can't take it home. Come on, it's time to go. Say bye to the ducks."
+
+Tom and Mia said bye to the ducks. They waved and smiled. The sleepy duck opened one eye and quacked softly. Tom and Mia felt sorry for the sleepy duck, but they knew Mom was right. They left the park with Mom. They hoped the sleepy duck would feel better soon.
+Lily and Lila were twins. They liked to play together. They had many toys and books and dolls. They shared a big room with two beds.
+
+One day, Lily was angry at Lila. Lila had taken her favorite doll and would not give it back. Lily said, "That is my doll. Give it to me now!" Lila said, "No, it is mine. I found it first." They pulled and pushed and yelled.
+
+Lily was so mad that she ran to the door and locked it. She said, "You are a bad twin. You can not play with me anymore. Go away!" Lila said, "No, you are a bad twin. You can not lock me out. Let me in!" They banged and kicked and cried.
+
+But no one heard them. Mom and Dad were in the garden. They did not know that the twins were fighting. They did not know that the door was locked.
+
+Lily and Lila were lonely. They missed each other. They wanted to hug and say sorry. But they did not know how to unlock the door. They did not know how to make up.
+
+They sat on the floor and sniffed. They looked at the doll. It was not fun anymore. It was just a doll. They wished they had their twin. They wished they had their friend.
+Sara and Ben were at the beach with Mom and Dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. But today, the water was not good. It had many jellyfish. Jellyfish are animals that can sting and hurt. Mom and Dad told Sara and Ben to stay away from the jellyfish.
+
+Sara and Ben were sad. They wanted to swim and have fun. They were restless. They did not like to sit and watch. They wanted to do something. They saw a big rock near the water. They thought it would be fun to climb on the rock and look at the sea.
+
+They ran to the rock and started to climb. But the rock was slippery and wet. Sara slipped and fell. She cried out loud. Ben tried to help her, but he slipped too. He landed on a jellyfish. He felt a sharp pain. He cried louder than Sara.
+
+Mom and Dad heard their cries and ran to them. They picked them up and checked them. They saw the jellyfish on Ben's leg. They took it off and put some cream on it. They hugged Sara and Ben and told them they were brave and good. They said they were sorry for the jellyfish and the rock.
+
+Sara and Ben felt better. They said they were sorry too. They said they should have listened to Mom and Dad. They said they should have yielded to the water and the jellyfish. They said they learned their lesson. They asked Mom and Dad if they could have some ice cream. Mom and Dad smiled and said yes. They all went to the ice cream truck and had a sweet treat. They forgot about the jellyfish and the rock. They were happy again.
+Mia and Leo were playing in the park with their toy cars. They liked to make noises and pretend they were racing. But then they saw a big dog running towards them. The dog was barking and looked angry.
+
+"Run!" Mia said to Leo. "The dog is bad!"
+
+They dropped their toy cars and ran to the slide. They climbed up the ladder and slid down. The dog followed them and tried to bite their feet.
+
+"Help!" Leo shouted. "The dog is fast!"
+
+They saw a gate at the other end of the park. It was open and led to the street.
+
+"Let's go there!" Mia suggested. "We can escape the dog!"
+
+They ran to the gate and squeezed through. The dog could not fit and stayed behind. It was still barking and jumping.
+
+Mia and Leo were scared and tired. They looked around and saw a lady with a soft hat and a kind smile. She was holding a leash.
+
+"Are you okay, children?" the lady asked. "That's my dog, Rex. He's not bad, he just likes to play. But he can be too rough sometimes. I'm sorry he scared you."
+
+Mia and Leo felt better. They told the lady their names and where they lived. The lady said she would take them home and give them their toy cars back.
+
+"Thank you, lady," Mia and Leo said. "Can we pet Rex?"
+
+The lady nodded and called Rex. Rex came and licked their hands. He was soft and warm.
+
+Mia and Leo smiled. They petted Rex and said sorry for running away. Rex wagged his tail and said sorry for barking. They all became friends.
+Tim and Liz are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But they do not like to wash their hands. They think it is boring and takes too long.
+
+One day, Mom makes them a yummy snack. She puts some cheese, crackers, and grapes on a plate. She tells them to wash their hands before they eat. Tim and Liz say yes, but they do not do it. They run to the table and grab some food.
+
+Mom sees them and says, "Stop! You have to wash your hands first. They are dirty and have germs. If you eat with dirty hands, you can get sick."
+
+Tim and Liz do not listen. They say they are hungry and want to eat now. They are persistent. They do not care about germs.
+
+Mom is sad and angry. She takes away the plate and says, "No snack for you until you wash your hands. Go to the bathroom and use soap and water. Then you can have your snack."
+
+Tim and Liz are upset. They cry and whine. They say they are sorry and they will wash their hands. But Mom does not give them the plate back. She says they have to learn their lesson.
+
+Tim and Liz go to the bathroom and wash their hands. They use soap and water and rub them well. They rinse them and dry them. They go back to the table and say, "We washed our hands, Mom. Can we have our snack now?"
+
+Mom smiles and says, "Yes, you can. I am proud of you for washing your hands. That is a good habit to have. It keeps you healthy and clean. Now you can enjoy your snack."
+
+Tim and Liz say thank you and eat their snack. They say it is delicious and they are happy. They learn that washing their hands is important and not so hard. They promise to do it every time before they eat.
+
+The moral of the story is: Washing your hands is good for you and you should do it before you eat.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a new boy on the swing. He has a cool hat and a big smile.
+
+"Hi, I am Sara. This is Ben. What is your name?" Sara asks.
+
+"I am Max. I just moved here. I don't have any friends yet." Max says.
+
+"You can be our friend. We like to play tag and hide and seek. Do you want to play with us?" Ben says.
+
+"Yes, please. That sounds fun. Thank you for being nice to me." Max says.
+
+Sara and Ben welcome Max to their group. They run and laugh and have a good time. Max is happy. He has made new friends. Sara and Ben are happy too. They have a new friend who is cool and kind. They all enjoy the park.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play and have fun. But they are very different. Sara is careful. She does not like to try new things. Ben is not careful. He likes to try everything.
+
+One day, Mom and Dad take them to a restaurant. It is a new place. They have food from another country. Sara does not want to eat. She says the food looks weird. Ben wants to eat. He says the food looks yummy.
+
+Mom and Dad tell Sara to be brave and accept the food. They say it is good to try new things. They say the food is healthy and tasty. Sara shakes her head. She says she only wants bread and water.
+
+Ben accepts the food. He tries everything. He likes the rice and the beans and the sauce. He likes the meat and the cheese and the tortilla. He likes the fruit and the cake and the ice cream. He says the food is amazing.
+
+Sara watches Ben. She sees him smile and enjoy. She feels sad and hungry. She wishes she had tried the food. She realizes she missed a chance to have fun and learn. She decides to be more open and accept new things.
+
+The moral of the story is: It is good to be careful, but it is also good to accept new things. You might discover something you like and grow as a person.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play together. One day, their mom made a big pie for dessert. She told them to wait until after dinner to have a slice. But Sara and Ben were very hungry and curious. They wanted to taste the pie right away.
+
+They sneaked into the kitchen when mom was busy. They saw the pie on the table. It smelled good and looked yummy. Sara reached for a knife to cut a piece. Ben said, "No, Sara, we can't. Mom said wait."
+
+Sara ignored Ben. She said, "Just one bite. Mom won't notice." She cut a small slice and put it on a plate. She took a fork and ate some. It was sweet and warm. She smiled and said, "Mmm, this is good. You should try it, Ben."
+
+Ben shook his head. He said, "No, Sara, that's not kind. Mom worked hard to make the pie. She will be sad if we eat it now. We should listen to her and wait." He put the plate and the knife back on the table. He tried to fix the pie so it looked whole again.
+
+Sara felt bad. She saw that Ben was right. She said, "I'm sorry, Ben. You are a good brother. I was greedy and rude. I hope mom won't be mad at me." She hugged Ben and said, "Let's go play until dinner. Maybe mom will let us have some pie later."
+
+Ben hugged Sara back. He said, "It's okay, Sara. I forgive you. You are a good sister. I love you. Let's go play. Maybe mom will be proud of us for being honest and kind." They ran out of the kitchen and played happily until dinner. Mom didn't notice the missing slice of pie. She was happy to see them smiling and sharing. She gave them each a big slice of pie after dinner. They thanked her and said it was the best pie ever.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hill with a zigzag path. "Let's go up there!" Max said. "It looks cool!"
+
+Lily nodded and followed Max. They climbed the hill, zigzagging left and right. They saw many flowers and birds and bugs. They felt the wind in their hair and the sun on their skin.
+
+But when they reached the top, they saw a big dog. It was black and brown and had sharp teeth. It barked loudly and ran towards them. Lily and Max were scared. They wanted to go back down the hill.
+
+"Stay!" a voice said. It was a man. He was the dog's owner. He held a leash in his hand. He caught the dog and put the leash on it. "I'm sorry, kids. He's friendly, but he likes to chase. He won't hurt you."
+
+Lily and Max breathed a sigh of relief. They smiled at the man and the dog. "It's okay," Lily said. "He's a cool dog. What's his name?"
+
+"His name is Ziggy," the man said. "He likes to zigzag, just like you." He laughed and petted the dog. "Do you want to pet him?"
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They went closer and petted Ziggy. He licked their faces and wagged his tail. They laughed and played with him. They forgot their fear and had fun. They liked Ziggy. He was a cool zigzag dog.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big slide. It is shiny and new. It is a modern slide.
+
+"Can we go on the slide?" Lily asks Tom.
+
+"Yes, let's go!" Tom says. They run to the slide.
+
+But there is a sign. It says: "Only big kids can use this slide. No little kids allowed."
+
+Lily and Tom are sad. They are little kids. They want to use the slide.
+
+"Maybe we can try it anyway," Tom says. "No one will see us."
+
+Lily is scared. She does not want to break the rule. But Tom is brave. He climbs up the ladder.
+
+"Come on, Lily, it will be fun!" Tom says.
+
+Lily follows Tom. She climbs up the ladder too. She sees the slide. It is very high and steep.
+
+They sit on the slide. They hold hands. They slide down.
+
+But the slide is too fast. They cannot stop. They hit the ground hard.
+
+Lily and Tom cry. They are hurt. They have cuts and bruises. Tom cannot breathe well. He has a bad lung.
+
+A grown-up comes. He sees Lily and Tom. He is angry.
+
+"What are you doing here?" he says. "You are not allowed to use this slide. You are too little. You are in trouble."
+
+He calls their moms. Their moms come. They are worried and mad.
+
+They take Lily and Tom to the doctor. The doctor says Tom needs to stay in the hospital. He has a broken lung. He needs a machine to help him breathe.
+
+Lily and Tom are sorry. They wish they had listened to the sign. They wish they had not used the slide. They learned a hard lesson. They will never break the rule again.
+Lila and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were brave knights and princesses. They had a big stick for a sword and a blanket for a cape.
+
+"Look, Tom, there is a cave!" Lila said, pointing to a hole in the hill. "Maybe there is a treasure inside!"
+
+"Or maybe there is a dragon!" Tom said, pretending to be scared. "A big, scary, ancient dragon that breathes fire and eats knights!"
+
+Lila laughed. "Don't be silly, Tom. Dragons are not real. They are only in stories. Come on, let's go and see!"
+
+They ran to the cave and peeked inside. It was dark and cold and smelled funny. They heard a loud snore.
+
+"Shh, Lila, I think there is something sleeping in there!" Tom whispered.
+
+"Maybe it is a bear, or a lion, or a wolf!" Lila whispered back.
+
+They tiptoed closer and saw a big, scaly, green tail. It was a dragon!
+
+"Tom, it is a dragon!" Lila gasped.
+
+"Run, Lila, run!" Tom shouted.
+
+They turned around and ran as fast as they could. The dragon woke up and saw them. It roared and chased them.
+
+"Help, help, a dragon is after us!" Lila and Tom screamed.
+
+They ran out of the cave and saw their mom and dad waiting for them.
+
+"Mom, dad, there is a dragon in the cave!" Lila and Tom cried.
+
+"A dragon?" their mom and dad said, surprised. "Are you sure?"
+
+"Yes, yes, we saw it, it was big and green and ancient and scary!" Lila and Tom said.
+
+Their mom and dad smiled. They knew it was only a game. They hugged Lila and Tom and said, "Don't worry, kids, there is no dragon in the cave. It was only your imagination. You have very good imagination. But now it is time to go home. Come on, let's go."
+
+Lila and Tom nodded. They were happy that their mom and dad were there. They still wondered if there was a dragon in the cave. Maybe it was only a dream. Maybe it was real. Maybe it would happen again.
+Sara liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had a brown dress with yellow flowers. Sara liked to brush Lily's hair and make her talk.
+
+One day, Sara and Lily went to the park with Mommy. Sara saw a big slide and wanted to try it. She asked Mommy if she could go. Mommy said yes, but be careful. Sara ran to the slide with Lily in her arms.
+
+Sara climbed up the ladder and sat on the slide. She held Lily tight and said, "Are you ready, Lily? We are going to have fun!" Then she pushed herself down the slide.
+
+But something bad happened. Lily's dress got caught on a nail on the slide. Sara felt a tug and heard a rip. She looked down and saw Lily's dress was torn. She was sad and scared. She cried, "Lily, Lily, I'm sorry!"
+
+Mommy heard Sara cry and ran to her. She hugged Sara and said, "It's okay, Sara. It was an accident. Lily is not hurt. We can fix her dress later." She took Lily from Sara and looked at the dress. She said, "See, it's not a big tear. We can sew it with some thread and a needle. Lily will look as good as new."
+
+Sara sniffed and said, "Really, Mommy?" Mommy nodded and said, "Really. Now, do you want to try the slide again? Or do you want to play something else?" Sara thought for a moment and said, "I want to play something else. I don't like the slide. It's mean to Lily." Mommy smiled and said, "Okay, let's go find something else. How about the swings?" Sara nodded and said, "Yes, I like the swings. Come on, Lily, let's go to the swings." She held Lily close and followed Mommy to the swings. She was happy again.
+Ben and Lily like to go for walks with their dog, Spot. Spot is a good dog and a reliable friend. He always comes when they call him and he never runs away.
+
+One day, they find a new path in the park. It looks fun and exciting. They want to see where it goes. They ask their mom if they can follow it. Mom says yes, but they have to stay together and be careful.
+
+They start to walk on the path. It goes up and down and around. They see many things: trees, flowers, birds, and bugs. They say hello to them and laugh. Spot runs ahead and sniffs everything. He barks and wags his tail.
+
+But then, the path gets darker and narrower. They hear strange noises and see scary shadows. They feel scared and lost. They want to go back. They call for Spot, but he does not come. They wonder where he is. They hope he is okay.
+
+Suddenly, they see a light at the end of the path. It is mom. She is waiting for them with a smile. She says she is proud of them for being brave and curious. She says she knew they would find their way back. She says Spot is with her. He found her and led her to them. He is a smart dog and a reliable friend. He always helps them and he never leaves them.
+
+They hug mom and Spot. They are happy and safe. They say thank you to them and to the path. They say they had a great adventure. They say they love each other. They go home and have a snack. They tell dad about their walk. He says he is glad they are okay. He says he loves them too. They say they love him too. They are a happy family. The end.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with toy soldiers and guns. They make war with each other. They hide behind the sofa and the table. They shoot and shout.

+
+They keep playing. They have fun.
+
+But then, Mom comes in. She is alert. She sees the mess. She sees the toy soldiers and guns. She is angry.

+
+Sara and Ben want their ball back. But they do not know what to do. The dog is big and mean. They are sad.
+
+Then, they see Tom. Tom is older and bigger than them. He is kind and brave. He walks to the dog and says, "Hey, dog, that is not your ball. Give it back to Sara and Ben. They are my friends."
+
+The dog looks at Tom and barks. But Tom does not run away. He stands still and stares at the dog. The dog feels scared. It drops the ball and runs away.
+
+Tom picks up the ball and gives it to Sara and Ben. They are happy. They say, "Thank you, Tom. You are a hero. You saved our ball."

+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big tree with many leaves. They wanted to see what was under the tree.
+
+They ran to the tree and looked around. They saw a big hole in the ground. They wondered what was in the hole. They heard a noise from the hole. It sounded like a growl.
+
+"Who is there?" Lily asked. She was a little scared.
+
+"Meow," the noise said. It was a cat. The cat came out of the hole. It was black and had a long tail. It had a long shadow too. The sun was behind the cat.
+
+"Hello, cat," Tom said. He was not scared. He liked cats. He reached out his hand to pet the cat.
+
+The cat rubbed its head against Tom's hand. It liked Tom too. It purred.
+
+Lily and Tom smiled. They had discovered a new friend. They played with the cat under the tree. They had fun.

+
+"Leave us alone, dog! You are mean! You ruin our garden!" Ben cries.

+Sara and Ben were bored. It was a gloomy day and they could not go outside to play. They looked at their toys, but they did not want to play with them. They wanted to do something fun and new.
+
+"Let's make a joke on Mommy," Sara said. She had a naughty idea. "We can load her bed with pillows and blankets and hide under them. When she comes to check on us, we can jump out and say 'boo!'"
+
+Ben liked the idea. He thought it was funny. He helped Sara load the bed with as many pillows and blankets as they could find. They made a big pile on the bed and crawled under it. They giggled and waited for Mommy.
+
+Mommy was in the kitchen. She was making lunch for Sara and Ben. She heard them laughing in their room. She wondered what they were doing. She decided to go and see.
+
+She opened the door and saw the bed. It looked very strange. It was full of pillows and blankets. She could not see Sara and Ben. She walked closer to the bed and said, "Sara? Ben? Where are you?"
+
+Suddenly, the pillows and blankets moved. Sara and Ben jumped out and shouted, "Boo!" They laughed and clapped their hands. They thought they had made a good joke.
+
+Mommy was surprised. She did not expect that. She smiled and hugged Sara and Ben. She said, "You scared me! That was a silly joke. But I love you anyway. Come on, lunch is ready."

+
+They run to the top of the hill. Lily goes first. She lies on the grass and rolls down. She laughs and shouts. She feels good.
+
+Ben goes next. He lies on the grass and rolls down. But he rolls too fast. He bumps into a rock. He cries and hurts.
+
+Lily runs to Ben. She sees his knee. It is red and wet.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. Are you OK?" Lily says.
+

+
+"Wow, you are strong, Tom!" Sam says. He picks up the small ball and runs to the fence. He kicks the ball hard. The ball does not fly over the fence. It lands in the grass.
+
+"Oh, you are weak, Sam!" Tom says. He laughs at Sam.
+
+Sam feels sad. He does not like when Tom laughs at him. He thinks the small ball is not good. He wants to try the big ball.

+
+"No, you can't. The big ball is mine. You have the small ball. It is good for you," Tom says. He is mean to Sam.
+
+Sam does not want to play with Tom anymore. He goes to the house. He tells Mom what Tom did. Mom is not happy with Tom. She goes to the backyard. She calls Tom.
+
+"Tom, come here. Why are you mean to Sam? You should share the big ball with him. It is not nice to laugh at him. He is your brother. You should be kind to him," Mom says.
+

+
+They take out the clothes. They put them on. They pretend to be grown-ups. They have fun.
+
+But then, they hear a knock on the door. It is Anna's mom.
+
+"Anna, Ben, what are you doing?" she says.
+
+She sees the clothes. They are on the floor. They are dirty and wrinkled.

+Lia and Ben are friends. They like to play in the hut. The hut is made of sticks and leaves. It is in the woods near their homes.
+
+One day, it rains a lot. The hut gets wet and muddy. Lia and Ben are sad. They want to play in the hut, but it is dirty.
+
+"Let's wipe the hut," Lia says. "We can use our cloths and water."
+

+
+"Look, Ben, a hat!" Anna says. "Let's use it for our blocks."
+
+"OK, Anna, how?" Ben asks.
+
+Anna has an idea. She puts the hat on her head and says, "I am the queen of the blocks. You are my knight. You have to protect me and my castle from the dragon."
+
+Ben likes the game. He finds a stick and pretends it is a sword. He says, "I am your brave knight, Anna. Where is the dragon?"
+
+Anna points to the cat. The cat is sleeping on the couch. It does not know about the game. Anna says, "There is the dragon. It is big and dangerous. It can breathe fire and eat us."
+
+Ben runs to the cat with his stick. He says, "Roar, dragon, roar. I will fight you and save the queen."
+
+The cat wakes up and sees Ben. It does not like the stick. It hisses and scratches Ben. Ben drops the stick and cries. He has a scratch on his arm. It hurts.
+
+Anna sees Ben and runs to him. She takes off the hat and puts it on his arm. She says, "I'm sorry, Ben. The cat is not a dragon. It is just a cat. The hat will make you feel better. You are still my knight."
+
+Ben stops crying and smiles. He says, "Thank you, Anna. You are still my queen. The hat is nice. But maybe we should not play with the cat anymore."
+
+Anna agrees. She says, "Yes, Ben. The cat is not for playing. It is for petting. Let's pet the cat and say sorry."
+
+They pet the cat and say sorry. The cat purrs and licks them. They are friends again. They put the blocks and the hat away. They hug and say, "We love you."
+Lily loved to draw with chalk. She had many colors of chalk in a big box. She liked to draw flowers, stars, and rainbows on the sidewalk. She was very good at drawing and made her pictures very bright and pretty.
+
+One day, a new boy moved in next door. His name was Max. He also liked to draw with chalk, but he had only one piece of white chalk. He drew cars, planes, and rockets on the sidewalk. He was not very good at drawing and made his pictures very messy and dull.
+
+Lily saw Max drawing and wanted to show him her chalk. She ran to her box and took out all her colors. She said to Max, "Look at my chalk! I have so many colors! I can draw anything I want! You only have one chalk. Your chalk is boring. Your pictures are ugly. You can't draw like me. I own all the chalk!"
+
+Max felt sad and angry. He said to Lily, "You are mean and rude. You don't share your chalk. You think you are better than me. You are not humble. You are proud and selfish. I don't want to play with you. Go away!"
+
+Lily felt ashamed and sorry. She realized she had hurt Max's feelings. She said to Max, "I'm sorry, Max. You are right. I was mean and rude. I don't own all the chalk. I should share my chalk. I don't think I'm better than you. I want to be humble. I want to play with you. Can we be friends?"
+
+Max smiled and nodded. He said to Lily, "Thank you, Lily. You are kind and nice. I'm sorry, too. I want to share my chalk. I want to learn from you. I want to be friends."
+
+Lily and Max hugged and became friends. They shared their chalk and drew together. They learned from each other and made their pictures more beautiful. They were happy and humble.
+Lily liked to play hide and seek with her big brother Tom. She always tried to find a good place to hide, but Tom was very good at finding her. One day, she had a new idea. She saw a big curtain in the living room that covered the window. She thought it would be a good place to hide behind.
+
+She ran to the curtain and pulled it aside. She saw a lot of dust and spider webs behind it. She did not like dust and spider webs. They made her sneeze and itch. But she wanted to hide from Tom, so she tried to be brave and went behind the curtain. She hoped Tom would not find her there.
+
+Tom counted to ten and then started to look for Lily. He looked under the sofa, behind the chair, in the closet, but he could not find her. He wondered where she was. He heard a small sound from the window. He walked to the window and saw the curtain move a little. He smiled and pulled the curtain back.
+
+He saw Lily behind the curtain. She was covered in dust and spider webs. She looked very unhappy. She sneezed and scratched her face. Tom laughed and said, "I found you, Lily! You tried to hide behind the curtain, but it was a difficult place to hide. You should have chosen a better place."
+
+Lily felt silly and sad. She did not like to lose the game. She did not like to be dirty and itchy. She wished she had not hidden behind the curtain. She said, "You are right, Tom. It was a difficult place to hide. I will not hide there again. Can we play another game?"
+
+Tom felt sorry for Lily. He saw that she was unhappy. He said, "OK, Lily. We can play another game. But first, let's go and wash your face and hands. You have a lot of dust and spider webs on you. They are not good for you."
+
+Lily nodded and followed Tom to the bathroom. She washed her face and hands and felt better. She said, "Thank you, Tom. You are a good brother. What game do you want to play next?"
+
+Tom thought for a moment and said, "How about we play tag? You can be it and try to catch me."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "OK, Tom. I will try to catch you. But be careful, I am very fast."
+
+They ran out of the bathroom and started to play tag. They had a lot of fun and forgot about the curtain.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the yard. They liked to run and jump and chase each other. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then they saw a big wire fence. It was very high and very long. It was in front of a big house. They could not see what was inside.
+
+"Let's go see what's behind the fence," Ben said. He was curious.
+
+"No, we can't," Lily said. She was scared. "Mommy said we should not go near the fence. She said it is dangerous."
+
+Ben did not listen. He wanted to see. He found a hole in the fence. He crawled through it. He told Lily to follow him.
+
+Lily did not want to. She hated the fence. She thought it was boring. She wanted to play in the yard. But she did not want to leave Ben alone. She crawled through the hole too.
+
+They were in the big house's garden. It was very pretty. There were many flowers and trees and birds. They saw a pond with fish and frogs. They saw a swing and a slide. They saw a dog house.
+
+"Wow, this is cool," Ben said. He ran to the swing. He wanted to try it.
+
+Lily followed him. She saw the dog house. She liked dogs. She wanted to pet one. She walked to the dog house.
+
+But then they heard a loud bark. A big dog came out of the house. It was angry. It saw Ben and Lily. It did not like them. It wanted to chase them away.
+
+The dog ran to Ben. Ben was on the swing. He did not see the dog. He was too high. The dog jumped and bit the swing's rope. The rope broke. Ben fell to the ground. He hurt his head. He cried.
+
+Lily saw what happened. She was scared. She wanted to help Ben. She ran to him. But the dog saw her too. It ran to her. It bit her leg. She fell to the ground. She hurt her leg. She cried.
+
+The dog barked and growled. It did not let them go. It wanted to hurt them more.
+
+Ben and Lily were trapped. They could not get out. They could not call for help. They were alone and in pain.
+
+They wished they had never gone near the fence. They wished they had listened to Mommy. They wished they had stayed in the yard. They wished they had never seen the dog.
+
+They were sorry. They were scared. They were sad.
+
+The end.

+
+"Wow, this tree is so big and old!" Tom said, touching the bark. "I wonder how many years it has been here."
+
+"I don't know, Tom, but it must be very ancient," Mia said, looking up at the sky. "Maybe it has seen many things and knows many stories."

+
+"Yes, Tom, I do!" Mia said, sitting next to him and holding his hand. "Let's close our eyes and listen to the tree."
+
+They closed their eyes and listened to the tree. They heard the wind rustling the leaves, the birds singing, the squirrels chattering, and the insects buzzing. They imagined that the tree was telling them stories of the park, of the people and animals that came and went, of the seasons and the weather, of the joys and sorrows, of the past and the present. They felt the tree's warmth and wisdom, and they smiled. They were happy in the shade of the ancient tree.
+Sam was a monkey who liked to test things. He wanted to know how they worked and what they did. He tested bananas, he tested rocks, he tested sticks. He was very curious and smart.
+
+One day, he saw a big red ball in the zoo. He wanted to test it too. He climbed the fence and jumped on the ball. He bounced and rolled and had fun. He did not see the people watching him.
+
+The people laughed and pointed at Sam. They said he was silly and funny. Sam felt embarrassed. He did not like to be laughed at. He wanted to go back to his friends.
+
+He tried to get off the ball, but it was too slippery. He slid and fell and bumped his head. He felt more embarrassed and hurt. He cried and wished he never tested the ball.
+
+A zookeeper came and helped Sam. He gave him a hug and a band-aid. He said he was sorry and that he understood. He said he liked to test things too, when he was a monkey. He said he was proud of Sam for being curious and smart.
+
+Sam felt better. He thanked the zookeeper and said goodbye. He went back to his friends and told them what happened. They said they were sorry and that they liked him. They said he was brave and clever.
+
+Sam smiled and felt happy. He still liked to test things, but he learned to be careful and respectful. He decided to test something else tomorrow. Maybe a hat, or a book, or a flower. He wondered what they would do.

+
+"Look at this!" Mom said, coming into the room. "You need to clean up before dinner. It's not nice to leave things like this."
+
+"But we're not done playing!" Lily said, holding a whip. She liked to pretend she was a cowgirl.
+
+"You can play later, after you eat. Now, please put your toys in the box and your books on the shelf. And be careful with the whip. It's delicate. It was your grandma's when she was little. She gave it to you because she loves you."
+
+Lily nodded. She loved her grandma and her whip. She didn't want to break it. She handed it to Mom and said, "Can you keep it safe for me?"

+Sara did not like to take a bath. She was afraid of the water and the soap. She always tried to hide when Mom said it was time for a bath. But Mom always found her and carried her to the bathroom.
+
+"Please, Mom, no bath!" Sara cried. "I don't want to be wet and cold!"
+
+"Come on, Sara, it's not so bad," Mom said. "The water is warm and the soap is gentle. You will be clean and cozy after the bath. And you can play with your rubber duck and your boat."
+
+Mom put Sara in the bathtub and turned on the faucet. Sara trembled as the water touched her skin. She felt weak and scared. She hugged her duck and closed her eyes.
+
+"Shh, it's okay, Sara," Mom said. "I'm here with you. Look, the water is making bubbles. Can you pop them with your fingers? Can you make a splash with your boat?"
+
+Sara opened her eyes and saw the bubbles. They were shiny and soft. She reached out and popped one. It made a funny sound. She popped another one. She smiled. She saw her boat floating on the water. She pushed it and it made a splash. She giggled.

+
+Sara nodded. She let Mom wash her hair and rinse it with a cup. She did not cry or fuss. She felt proud of herself. She got out of the bathtub and wrapped herself in a towel. Mom hugged her and kissed her.

+

She said, "Lily, you are a spoiled girl. You have everything, but you are not happy. You do not care about others, only yourself. You need to learn a lesson."
+
+The fairy waved her wand and said, "I will take away all your toys and books and clothes. You will only have what you need, not what you want. You will have to share and say thank you and listen and be nice. Maybe then you will be happy."
+
+Lily woke up. She was in her bed. She looked around and saw that her room was empty. All her toys and books and clothes were gone. She only had a blanket and a pillow and a teddy bear.

+
+Afterwards, his mom gave him a glass of juice to make him feel better. "Does your tummy hurt from being up so high?" she asked.

+Ben and Mia are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. But sometimes they make a big mess. They leave their toys on the floor, on the bed, and on the table. Mom does not like that. She tells them to clean up their toys every day.
+
+One day, Mom comes to their room and sees a lot of toys everywhere. She is very angry. She says, "Ben and Mia, you are very naughty. You did not clean up your toys again. You will receive a lecture from me. Come here and sit down."
+
+Ben and Mia are scared. They do not like to receive a lecture from Mom. They know they did something bad. They come to Mom and sit down on the couch. Mom looks at them with a serious face. She says, "You have to learn to be responsible. You have to take care of your toys. You have to put them away when you are done playing. If you do not, you will lose your toys. And you will make me sad. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben and Mia nod their heads. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We understand. We will clean up our toys. We will be good."
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "I am glad you understand. I love you very much. But you have to show me that you love me too. By being good and tidy. Now, go and clean up your toys. And then you can have a hug and a snack."
+
+Ben and Mia say, "Okay, Mom. We love you too." They go and clean up their toys. They put them in the boxes, on the shelves, and in the drawers. They make their room look nice. Then they come back to Mom. Mom gives them a hug and a kiss. She says, "You did a good job. I am proud of you. Here is a snack for you. It is a soft cookie. Enjoy."
+
+Ben and Mia say, "Thank you, Mom. You are the best." They eat their soft cookie. They are happy. They learned their lesson. They will not make a mess again.
+Lily and Tom are playing in the park. They like to slide, swing and run. It is a hot day and the sun is bright. Lily feels thirsty and wants some water.
+
+"Tom, I am thirsty. Can we go and get some water?" Lily asks.
+
+"OK, Lily. Let's go to the fountain. It is over there." Tom says. He points with his arm.
+
+They run to the fountain and drink some water. It is cold and fresh. They feel better.
+
+"Ah, that was good. Do you want to play some more?" Tom asks.
+
+"Yes, Tom. What do you want to play?" Lily asks.
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He sees a big tree with many leaves. He has an idea.
+
+"Let's play hide and seek. I will count to ten and you hide behind the tree. Then I will try to find you." Tom says.
+
+"OK, Tom. That sounds fun. But you have to close your eyes and no peeking." Lily says.
+
+"OK, Lily. I will close my eyes and no peeking. Ready, set, go!" Tom says.
+
+He closes his eyes and counts to ten. Lily runs behind the tree and hides. She hopes Tom will not find her. She giggles quietly.
+
+Tom opens his eyes and looks around. He does not see Lily. He wonders where she is. He walks towards the tree.
+
+"Lily, where are you? I am coming to find you." Tom says.
+
+He hears a giggle behind the tree. He smiles. He knows where Lily is. He runs behind the tree and shouts.
+
+"Boo! I found you, Lily. You are a good hider." Tom says.
+
+Lily screams and laughs. She hugs Tom.
+
+"You are a good finder, Tom. You are very smart." Lily says.
+
+They are happy and proud. They decide to play some more. They take turns hiding and finding. They have a lot of fun. They are good friends.
+Lily loved to paint. She had many colors and brushes and papers. Every morning, she would paint something new. She liked to paint flowers, animals, stars and rainbows.
+
+One morning, she decided to paint a big picture of her family. She painted her mom, her dad, her brother and herself. She used red, yellow, blue and green. She painted their faces, their clothes, their hair and their smiles. She was very happy with her picture.
+
+She showed her picture to her mom. "Look, mom, I painted us!" she said proudly.
+
+Her mom looked at the picture and smiled. "Wow, Lily, that is very impressive!" she said. "You are a great painter. I love how you used the colors and the shapes. You captured our family very well."
+
+Lily felt warm and proud. She hugged her mom and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. Can we hang the picture on the wall?"
+
+Her mom nodded and said, "Of course, we can. It is a beautiful picture. I love you too, Lily. You are a very creative and talented girl."
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the living room. They liked to make them zoom and crash on the carpet. They also liked to polish them with a soft cloth to make them shiny.
+
+"Look, my car is so shiny!" Lily said, holding up her red car.
+
+"Mine too!" Ben said, showing his blue car.
+
+They heard a loud noise from the kitchen. It sounded like water splashing. They ran to see what was happening.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily cried. "There is a flood in the kitchen!"
+
+The sink was overflowing with water. It was spilling on the floor and making a big puddle. Mom was trying to turn off the faucet, but it was stuck.
+
+"Help me, kids!" Mom said. "Get some towels and mop up the water!"
+
+Lily and Ben grabbed some towels and ran to the kitchen. They helped Mom dry the floor and the cabinets. They also dried their feet and their clothes.
+
+"Thank you, kids!" Mom said. "You are very helpful!"
+
+She hugged them and gave them a kiss.
+
+"Can we go back to playing with our cars?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful not to get them wet!" Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They went back to the living room and polished their cars again. They were happy to play with their shiny cars. They hoped there would be no more floods in the kitchen.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. Sara likes to swing and Ben likes to slide. One day, they see a new thing in the park. It is a pole. It is shiny and tall. Sara and Ben want to try it.
+
+"Look, a pole!" Sara says. "Let's go and see."
+
+"OK, but I go first," Ben says. He runs to the pole and grabs it. He tries to spin around it, but he falls down. He hurts his knee. He cries.
+
+Sara gazes at Ben. She feels sorry for him. She wants to help him. But she also wants to try the pole. She thinks it looks fun. She walks to the pole and touches it. It is smooth and cold.
+
+"Can I try it, Ben?" Sara asks. "Please?"
+
+Ben stops crying. He looks at Sara. He is angry. He thinks Sara is mean. He wants the pole for himself. He thinks it is his.
+
+"No, you can't!" Ben shouts. "It is my pole! Go away!"
+
+Sara is sad. She does not understand why Ben is angry. She thinks Ben is not a good friend. She walks away from the pole. She looks for another thing to play with.
+
+The pole is not popular. No one else wants to try it. They think it is boring. They prefer to swing and slide and run and jump. The pole is lonely. It wishes it had a friend. It thinks Sara was nice. It hopes she will come back.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her old doll. Her doll had a dress, a hat and shoes. Her doll could blink her eyes when Lily moved her. Lily loved her doll very much.
+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom and her doll. She saw other children playing with different toys. She saw a boy with a big truck, a girl with a shiny bike and a baby with a soft bear. Lily wanted to try their toys, but she did not want to leave her doll alone.
+
+She asked her mom, "Mom, can I play with their toys?"
+
+Her mom said, "Yes, you can, but you have to ask them nicely and share your doll with them. Your doll is important to you, but maybe they want to play with her too."
+
+Lily nodded and went to the boy with the truck. She said, "Hi, I like your truck. Can I play with it?"
+
+The boy said, "Sure, but can I play with your doll?"
+
+Lily said, "OK, but be careful. She can blink her eyes."
+
+The boy took the doll and moved her. He saw her eyes blink and smiled. He said, "She is cool. What is her name?"
+
+Lily said, "Her name is Rose. She is my best friend."
+
+The boy said, "My name is Sam. Do you want to be my friend too?"
+
+Lily said, "Yes, I do. Can we play together?"
+
+The boy said, "Yes, we can. Let's play with the truck and the doll."
+
+Lily and Sam played happily with their toys. They shared and took turns. They had fun and made a new friend. Lily's mom watched them and smiled. She was proud of Lily for being kind and brave. She knew that Lily's doll was old, but she was also very special.

+But then, a big dog comes in. The dog is dirty. He has mud and grass on his fur. He sees the pizza too. He jumps on the table. He tries to eat the pizza.
+
+Tom and Sam are scared. They shout, "No, no, bad dog! Go away!" Mom hears them. She comes to the kitchen. She sees the dog and the pizza. She is angry. She grabs the dog by the collar. She pulls him off the table. She says, "Bad dog! This is not your pizza! This is for Tom and Sam!"
+
+Mom takes the dog outside. She closes the door. She looks at the pizza. The pizza is dirty. The dog has bitten some of it. There is mud and grass on it. Mom says, "Oh no, the pizza is ruined! I'm sorry, Tom and Sam. You can't eat this pizza. It is not good for you."
+
+Tom and Sam are sad. They love pizza. They don't want to waste it. They say, "Mom, can we save the pizza? Can we clean it? Can we cut off the bad parts?"
+
+Mom thinks for a moment. She says, "Well, maybe we can save some of the pizza. But we have to be careful. We have to wash our hands. We have to use a knife and a plate. We have to throw away the bad parts. We have to heat the good parts in the oven. Do you want to help me?"
+
+Tom and Sam say, "Yes, Mom, we want to help you! We want to save the pizza!" They wash their hands. They help Mom cut and clean the pizza. They put the good parts in the oven. They throw away the bad parts.

+
+One day, they see a big frog on a rock. They want to say hello to the frog. They walk to the pond and call the frog. The frog does not move. They get closer and closer. They do not see the mud near the pond.
+
+Splash! Anna and Ben slip and fall in the mud. They are wet and dirty. They cry and shout. The frog jumps off the rock and into the water. It makes a loud ribbit.
+
+Mom and Dad hear them and run to help. They pick them up and hug them. They are not hurt, but they are very messy. Mom and Dad wipe their faces, hands and clothes with a towel. They say they are lucky they did not fall in the pond.
+
+Anna and Ben stop crying and smile. They say they are sorry for making a mess. They say they still like the frog. Mom and Dad laugh and say they love them. They take them home and give them a bath. They say they can play at the park again, but they have to be careful near the pond.
+Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the park. They had a big box of toys that they brought with them. They had cars, balls, dolls, and animals. Tom's favorite toy was a lion. He named it Leo and pretended it was his friend.
+
+One day, they saw a new boy in the park. He was bigger than them and had a grumpy face. He walked over to their box of toys and started to take them. He took a car, a ball, a doll, and then he reached for Leo.
+
+"Hey, that's mine!" Tom shouted. He ran to the boy and tried to get Leo back. But the boy was stronger and pushed him away.
+
+"Finders keepers, losers weepers," the boy said. He laughed and ran away with Leo.
+
+Tom was very sad. He cried and cried. Sam felt sorry for him and hugged him.
+
+"Don't worry, Tom. We'll get Leo back. I have a plan," Sam said.
+
+Sam whispered his plan to Tom. They waited until the boy was busy playing with Leo. Then they sneaked behind him and grabbed Leo from his hands.
+
+"Give it back!" the boy yelled. He chased them, but they were faster and smarter. They ran to the slide and slid down with Leo. Then they ran to the swings and swung high with Leo. Then they ran to the seesaw and bounced up and down with Leo.
+
+The boy was tired and angry. He gave up and left the park.
+
+Tom and Sam were very happy. They hugged Leo and thanked him for being brave.
+
+"You're the best lion ever, Leo. You saved us from the grumpy boy," Tom said.
+
+"And you're the best brother ever, Tom. You saved Leo from the grumpy boy," Sam said.
+
+They played with Leo and their other toys until it was time to go home. They smiled and waved goodbye to the park. They knew they would come back again and have more fun.
+Lily liked the winter season. She liked to play in the snow and make snowmen. She liked to drink hot cocoa and wear warm hats. She liked to see the lights and the trees and the presents.
+
+But Lily also liked the spring season. She liked to see the flowers and the birds and the butterflies. She liked to run and jump and swing. She liked to wear dresses and sandals and sunglasses.
+
+Lily hoped that spring would come soon. She was tired of the cold and the dark and the ice. She wanted to see the sun and the green and the colors. She wanted to have fun and laugh and sing.
+
+One day, Lily saw a sign of spring. She saw a tiny bud on a branch. She saw a drop of water on a leaf. She saw a bird on a nest. She smiled and clapped her hands.
+
+Lily was strong and brave. She knew that winter would not last forever. She knew that spring would come and bring joy and life. She knew that hope was a good thing to have. She was happy and thankful and hopeful.
+Lily was a young cat who liked to play outside. She saw a fly buzzing near a flower and wanted to catch it. She jumped and ran after the fly, but it was too fast for her. She tried to chew the fly, but it flew away.
+
+"Meow!" Lily said. She was angry and hungry. She looked around for something else to eat.
+
+She saw a mouse hiding under a bush. She crept closer and pounced on the mouse. But the mouse was clever and ran away. Lily chased the mouse, but it escaped into a hole.
+
+"Squeak!" the mouse said. It was scared and glad. It was safe in its home.
+
+Lily was tired and sad. She had no food and no fun. She went back to her house and saw her mom.
+
+"Mom, I'm hungry and bored," Lily said. "There is nothing to eat or play with outside."
+
+Her mom licked her fur and gave her a hug.
+
+"Don't worry, my dear," her mom said. "I have some milk and fish for you. And you can play with your toys and your siblings. You are a young cat, and you have many things to learn and enjoy."
+
+Lily smiled and purred. She drank some milk and ate some fish. She played with her toys and her siblings. She was happy and full. She forgot about the fly and the mouse. She loved her mom and her home.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the living room. They saw a telephone on the table. It was shiny and had many buttons. They wanted to touch it and make noises.
+
+"Let's play with the telephone!" Ben said.
+
+"Okay!" Lily agreed.
+
+They took the telephone and removed the cord from the wall. They pressed the buttons and heard beeps and tones. They pretended to talk to each other and to other people.
+
+"Hello, this is Ben. How are you?" Ben said.
+
+"Hello, this is Lily. I am fine. How are you?" Lily said.
+
+They laughed and had fun. They did not notice that Mom was looking for the telephone. She needed to call Grandma and say hello.
+
+"Where is the telephone?" Mom asked. She looked around the living room and saw the cord on the floor. She followed the cord and found Lily and Ben with the telephone.
+
+"Lily, Ben, what are you doing?" Mom asked. She was not happy.
+
+"We are playing with the telephone!" Lily and Ben said.
+
+"Playing with the telephone? That is not a toy. That is for talking to people. You should not remove the cord from the wall. That is dangerous. And you should not press the buttons randomly. That can make the telephone dizzy and not work." Mom said.
+
+She took the telephone from them and plugged the cord back into the wall. She checked if the telephone was working. It was.
+
+"I am sorry, Mom. We did not know." Lily and Ben said.
+
+"It's okay. I know you were curious. But you should always ask before you touch something that is not yours. And you should be careful with things that have cords and buttons. They can be harmful or break. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+"Yes, Mom. We understand." Lily and Ben said.
+
+"Good. Now, why don't you play with your toys instead? They are more fun and safe. And maybe later, you can talk to Grandma on the telephone. She would love to hear your voices." Mom said.
+
+"Okay, Mom. Thank you." Lily and Ben said.
+
+They hugged Mom and went to play with their toys. They learned their lesson. They did not play with the telephone again. They only used it to talk to Grandma and other people. They were happy and polite.
+Sara and Tom were adventurous kids. They liked to explore the big park near their home. One day, they found a hole in the fence. They wanted to see what was on the other side.
+
+"Let's go, Sara!" Tom said. "Maybe we can find something fun!"
+
+"OK, Tom. But we have to be careful. Mom and Dad said we should not go too far." Sara said.
+
+They crawled through the hole and saw a big farm. There were cows, pigs, chickens and a big red barn. They ran towards the barn, hoping to see some animals.
+
+They opened the door and saw a lot of hay and tools. They also saw a big cage with a sign that said "Do not touch". Inside the cage, there was a big furry animal with sharp teeth and claws. It looked like a dog, but bigger and meaner.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Tom said. "It must be a wolf!"
+
+"Tom, we should not be here. This is dangerous. Let's go back." Sara said.
+
+But Tom was curious. He wanted to see the wolf closer. He went to the cage and tried to open it.
+
+"Tom, stop! You are being silly!" Sara said.
+
+But it was too late. The cage was not locked. Tom opened it and the wolf jumped out. It growled and barked at the kids. It was hungry and angry.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tom and Sara screamed. They tried to run away, but the wolf was faster. It chased them and caught them. It bit them and hurt them. They cried and cried, but no one heard them.
+
+The wolf had a big meal. Tom and Sara did not share. They did not escape. They were not adventurous anymore. They were gone.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to swim in the pond near their house. One day, they see a big fish in the water. It has red spots and sharp teeth.
+
+"Look, a fish!" Tom says. "Can we catch it?"
+
+"No, Tom, that is a bad fish. It has poison in its mouth. If it bites you, you will be sick," Sue says.
+
+"But I want to see it closer. Maybe it is friendly," Tom says. He swims towards the fish.
+
+"Tom, stop! Come back!" Sue says. She is scared for Tom.
+
+The fish sees Tom and swims fast to him. It opens its mouth and tries to bite Tom's leg. Tom feels a pain and screams. He kicks the fish and swims back to Sue.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! It bit me! It bit me!" Tom cries. He shows Sue his leg. It has a mark and blood.
+
+"Oh, Tom, you are hurt. We need to go home and tell mom. She will help you," Sue says. She holds Tom's hand and helps him out of the pond.
+
+They run to their house and tell mom what happened. Mom sees Tom's leg and says, "Oh, no, you were bitten by a spoiled fish. That is very dangerous. We need to go to the doctor right now."
+
+She takes Tom and Sue to the car and drives to the doctor. The doctor gives Tom a shot and a bandage. He says, "You are lucky, Tom. The poison was not very strong. You will be fine in a few days. But you should not swim in that pond again. There are more spoiled fish there. They are not good for you."
+
+Tom says, "I am sorry, mom. I was silly. I will not swim in that pond again. I will listen to Sue. She is a good friend."
+
+Mom says, "I am glad you are sorry, Tom. And I am proud of Sue. She was brave and smart. She saved you from the fish. You are both good children. I love you."
+
+Tom and Sue hug mom and say, "We love you too, mom." They are happy to be safe and together.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they go on a trip with their moms. They go to the park. The park has swings and slides and a big pond.
+
+Sara and Ben run to the swings. They take turns to push each other. They laugh and have fun. Then they see a duck in the pond. The duck has a broken wing. It cannot fly. Sara and Ben feel sad for the duck.
+
+They ask their moms if they can help the duck. Their moms say yes. They find some bread and water. They go to the pond. They include the duck in their play. They give the duck some bread and water. They talk to the duck and pet it gently. The duck quacks and wags its tail. Sara and Ben are happy. They make a new friend.
+Lily liked to play the piano. She had a big piano in her room. She learned how to play songs from her mom. She played every day and made pretty sounds.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to show her friend Ben how to play the piano. She invited him to her room and said, "Look, this is my piano. I can play songs for you. Do you want to hear?"
+
+Ben nodded and smiled. He liked Lily and wanted to hear her songs. He sat on the floor and watched Lily play. She played a happy song and a sad song and a funny song. Ben clapped and said, "You are very good, Lily. You play the piano very well."
+
+Lily was happy and said, "Thank you, Ben. Do you want to try to play the piano too? I can teach you. It is fun."
+
+Ben said, "Yes, I want to try. Can I sit on the stool with you?"
+
+Lily said, "Sure, come here. I will show you how to press the keys. You have to be patient and listen to the sounds. Then you can make your own songs."
+
+Ben climbed on the stool and sat next to Lily. He put his hands on the keys and pressed them hard. He made loud and ugly sounds. He did not listen to Lily. He just pressed the keys as fast as he could. He laughed and said, "This is fun. I like the piano."
+
+Lily did not like the sounds. She did not like how Ben played the piano. She said, "No, Ben, no. You are playing wrong. You are hurting the piano. You have to be gentle and careful. You have to follow me. Please stop."
+
+But Ben did not stop. He kept pressing the keys and making noise. He did not care about Lily or the piano. He said, "No, Lily, no. I am playing right. I am having fun. You are boring. You have to follow me. Please play."
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She tried to pull Ben's hands away from the keys. She said, "Ben, stop. You are being mean. You are ruining my piano. You are not my friend. Go away."
+
+But Ben did not go away. He pushed Lily off the stool and said, "Lily, go away. You are being rude. You are not letting me play. You are not my friend. I will play by myself."
+
+Lily fell on the floor and hit her head. She cried and said, "Ow, ow, ow. You hurt me, Ben. You hurt me and my piano. You are bad. You are bad."
+
+Ben did not care. He kept playing the piano and making noise. He did not hear Lily or see her tears. He did not suffer. He did not suffer at all.
+Tom and Sue like to play on the beach. They find a big anchor in the sand. They think it is from a ship.
+
+"Look, Sue, a big anchor!" Tom says.
+
+"Wow, Tom, it is very big. Can we play with it?" Sue asks.
+
+"Yes, we can. But we have to be careful. It is heavy and rusty. We don't want to hurt ourselves," Tom says.
+
+They dig around the anchor and pretend it is their treasure. They make a flag with a stick and a cloth. They have fun.
+
+But then they hear their mom calling them. It is time to go home.
+
+"Come on, Tom and Sue, we have to go. The sun is going down," mom says.
+
+"OK, mom, we are coming," Tom and Sue say.
+
+They run to their mom, but they don't forget the anchor. They cover it with sand and make it tidy.
+
+"Bye, anchor, we will come back and play with you again," they say.
+
+They hold their mom's hand and walk to the car. They are happy. They care about the anchor and each other.
+Tim and Kim were friends who liked to play soccer. They had a ball and two cones to make a goal. They took turns to kick the ball and try to score. Sometimes they missed, sometimes they hit the cone, and sometimes they got the ball in the goal. They cheered and high-fived when they scored.
+
+One day, a big dog came to the park where they played. The dog was fierce and barked loud. It ran after the ball and tried to take it from Tim and Kim. They were scared and ran away from the dog. The dog chased them and knocked over the cones. It bit the ball and made a hole in it. The ball was flat and could not roll anymore.
+
+Tim and Kim were sad and angry. They wanted their ball back. They found a stick and threw it far away. The dog saw the stick and ran after it. It left the ball behind. Tim and Kim ran to the ball and picked it up. They ran to the other side of the park, away from the dog. They found a new place to play and set up their goal again. They fixed the hole in the ball with some tape. They played soccer until it was time to go home. They had fun and forgot about the dog. The end.
+Tom and Lily were having lunch with their mom and dad. They liked to eat noodles with sauce and cheese. Mom gave them each a big dish of noodles and said, "Be careful, it's hot. Don't spill it on your clothes."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and started to eat. They used their forks and spoons and tried not to make a mess. But Tom was in a hurry. He wanted to finish his dish and play with his toys. He took a big bite of noodles and sauce and cheese. He did not blow on it to cool it down. He felt his mouth burn and he made a loud noise. "Ow! Ow! Ow!"
+
+He dropped his fork and spoon and grabbed his mouth. His dish tipped over and the noodles and sauce and cheese fell on his lap. He felt wet and sticky and hot. He started to cry. "Mom! Mom! It hurts!"
+
+Mom and dad and Lily looked at him. They felt sorry for him, but they also wanted to laugh. They saw his dish on the floor and his clothes covered in noodles and sauce and cheese. They saw his face red and his mouth open. They tried not to giggle.
+
+Mom got up and took a napkin. She wiped Tom's mouth and said, "Oh, Tom, you poor thing. You should have been more careful. You should have blown on your noodles. They were too hot for you. Come on, let's go to the bathroom and clean you up."
+
+Tom nodded and got up. He followed mom to the bathroom. He felt embarrassed. He did not like to spill his dish and make a mess. He did not like to cry in front of dad and Lily. He hoped they would not tease him. He hoped they would forget what happened. He hoped his mouth would stop hurting. He hoped he could still play with his toys. He learned his lesson. He would not eat his noodles so fast next time. He would blow on them first. He would be more careful. He would not make a noise. He would not spill his dish. He would not be embarrassed.
+Tom and Mia went to the park with Mom. They saw many things to play with. They saw swings, slides, and a big sandbox. They also saw a man with a lot of balloons. The balloons were many colors: red, blue, yellow, green, and pink.
+
+Tom and Mia wanted a balloon. They asked Mom if they could have one. Mom said yes, and gave them some money. They ran to the man with the balloons. Tom picked a red balloon, and Mia picked a pink one. The man tied the balloons to their wrists, so they would not fly away.
+
+Tom and Mia were very happy with their balloons. They ran and jumped and laughed. They showed their balloons to the other kids in the park. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, something bad happened. A big dog came to the park. The dog was brown and furry. He liked to chase things. He saw Tom and Mia's balloons. He thought they were toys. He ran after them, barking and growling.
+
+Tom and Mia were scared of the dog. They tried to run away, but the dog was faster. He jumped and bit Tom's balloon. Pop! The balloon burst, and the dog ran away with the red pieces. Tom was very sad. He cried and hugged Mom.
+
+Mia felt sorry for Tom. She wanted to make him happy. She had an idea. She leaned over and gave Tom her pink balloon. She said, "Here, Tom. You can have my balloon. I don't need it. I have you."
+
+Tom smiled and hugged Mia. He said, "Thank you, Mia. You are very nice. I love you." He took the pink balloon and held it tight.
+
+Mom was proud of Mia. She said, "You are very kind, Mia. You shared your balloon with Tom. That was very sweet of you."
+
+Tom and Mia smiled and hugged Mom. They said, "We love you, Mom." They played with the pink balloon together. They were happy again.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in the snow. One day, they see a big sign on the fence. It says "Do not enter. Danger." Sara wants to go inside. Ben says no.
+
+"Why not?" Sara asks.
+
+"Sign says danger. Maybe there are bad things inside. Maybe there are big dogs or sharp things or fire," Ben says.
+
+Sara does not listen. She says, "I want to see. You are scared. I am not scared." She climbs over the fence. Ben follows her. He does not want her to get hurt.
+
+They walk in the snow. They see a small house. It looks old and dark. Sara runs to the door. She opens it. She sees a table with a bottle on it. The bottle has a label. It says "Pills. Do not eat. Poison."
+
+Sara is curious. She picks up the bottle. She opens it. She sees many small pills. They are red and blue and green. They look like candy. She wants to try one.
+
+"Stop!" Ben shouts. "Do not eat that. It is poison. It can make you sick or die."
+
+Sara does not listen. She says, "You are silly. It is not poison. It is candy. I want to taste it." She puts a pill in her mouth.
+
+Ben is scared. He runs to her. He tries to take the pill out of her mouth. But it is too late. Sara swallows the pill.
+
+She feels a strange feeling in her stomach. She feels dizzy and cold. She says, "I do not feel good. I want to go home."
+
+Ben is sad and angry. He says, "I told you not to eat that. You are stupid. You did not listen to me or the sign. Now you are sick. We have to find help."
+
+He takes her hand. He leads her out of the house. He looks for someone to help them. He hopes it is not too late. He hopes Sara will be okay. He wishes they never went inside. He wishes they listened to the sign.
+Sara and Tom are playing in the park. They like to search for bugs and flowers. They have a small scale to weigh their finds. They want to see who can find the heaviest bug or flower.
+
+Sara sees a big yellow flower. She picks it and puts it on the scale. It is very light. She is not happy. She wants to find a heavier flower.
+
+Tom sees a shiny green bug. He catches it and puts it on the scale. It is very heavy. He is happy. He thinks he will win the game.
+
+"Look, Sara, I found a heavy bug!" Tom says. "It is heavier than your flower. I win!"
+
+Sara is anxious. She does not want to lose the game. She looks around for a heavier flower. She sees a red flower. It is bigger than the yellow one. She runs to get it.
+
+But when she gets closer, she sees that the red flower is not a flower. It is a balloon. Someone left it in the park. It is tied to a rock. Sara is sad. She knows that a balloon is not a flower. She knows that a balloon is very light.
+
+She goes back to Tom. She shows him the balloon. She says, "I'm sorry, Tom. I did not find a heavier flower. You win the game. Your bug is very heavy."
+
+Tom sees the balloon. He feels sorry for Sara. He says, "It's okay, Sara. You tried hard. The balloon is very pretty. Do you want to play with it?"
+
+Sara smiles. She says, "Yes, thank you, Tom. The balloon is very pretty. Can we share it?"
+
+Tom nods. He says, "Yes, we can share it. We can play with the bug and the flower too. They are also very pretty."
+
+Sara and Tom are happy. They play with the bug, the flower and the balloon. They forget about the scale. They are friends.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their blocks. They liked to build towers and houses and cars. But Tom wanted to build a big castle, and Lily wanted to build a zoo. They did not agree on what to do with the blocks.
+
+Tom said, "I want to build a castle. Give me the blocks." He tried to take some blocks from Lily's pile.
+
+Lily said, "No, I want to build a zoo. These are my blocks." She pulled the blocks back from Tom.
+
+They both pulled and pushed and shouted. The blocks fell down and made a mess. Some blocks hit Tom and Lily and hurt them. They cried and felt sad.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Tom and Lily crying and the blocks everywhere. She said, "What happened? Why are you fighting?"
+
+Tom and Lily told Mom what they wanted to build and how they hurt each other. Mom said, "I'm sorry you are hurt. Let me wipe your tears and your scratches. But you should not fight over the blocks. You can share them and play together. You can build a castle and a zoo, or something else. There are many ways to play with blocks."
+
+Mom helped Tom and Lily to clean up the mess and to hug and say sorry. Then she gave them some more blocks and some ideas. Tom and Lily decided to build a castle with a zoo inside. They used the blocks to make walls and towers and gates and animals. They had fun and were happy. They learned to play nicely and to respect each other's ideas.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the hall. They liked to run and jump and make noise. But they also liked to look at the pictures on the wall. The pictures showed many things: animals, flowers, cars, people.
+
+One day, they saw a new picture. It was very big and pretty. It had many colors and shapes. Lily and Ben wanted to examine it. They went closer and closer.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Lily said. She pointed to a part of the picture that looked like a bird. "It has blue feathers and a yellow beak. And it is flying in the sky."
+
+"I see it, I see it!" Ben said. He pointed to another part of the picture that looked like a fish. "It has green scales and a red fin. And it is swimming in the water."
+
+They looked at the picture for a long time. They found more things: a star, a tree, a ball, a house. They named them and talked about them. They were having fun.
+
+But then they heard a voice. It was Mom. She was calling them from the kitchen.
+
+"Lily, Ben, come here! It's time for lunch!"
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They did not want to leave the picture. They liked it so much.
+
+"Can we come back later?" Lily asked.
+
+"Please, please, please?" Ben begged.
+
+Mom smiled. She knew they liked the picture. She liked it too. It was a gift from Grandma. Grandma was an artist. She made the picture for them.
+
+"Of course you can come back later," Mom said. "But first, you need to eat. Come on, I made your favorite: macaroni and cheese!"
+
+Lily and Ben smiled too. They loved macaroni and cheese. They ran to the kitchen. They gave Mom a hug and a kiss. They said thank you.
+
+But they did not forget the picture. They knew they would examine it again. They knew they would find more things. They knew they would have more fun.
+Tim and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big white truck. The truck has a sign that says "Test Cells". Tim and Mia are curious. They want to know what is inside the truck.
+
+They sneak up to the truck and open the door. They see many cages with animals. The animals look sad and scared. They have wires and tubes on them. Tim and Mia feel sorry for the animals. They want to help them.
+
+"Let's free them!" Tim says. "Yes, let's!" Mia says. They start to open the cages and take off the wires and tubes. The animals are happy. They run out of the truck and into the park.
+
+But then, a man comes out of the truck. He is angry. He sees Tim and Mia and the animals. He shouts at them. "Hey, you kids! What are you doing? You ruined my test! You let out my cells! Come here, now!"
+
+He runs after Tim and Mia and the animals. He catches some of the animals and puts them back in the cages. He catches Tim and Mia and drags them into the truck. He locks the door. He says, "You are in big trouble. You will be my new test cells. You will never see the park again."
+
+Tim and Mia are scared. They cry. They wish they never saw the big white truck. They wish they never opened the door. They wish they never tried to help the animals. They wish they could go back to the park and play. But they can't. The end.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and balls. One day, Tom has a mint in his pocket. He likes mints. They are sweet and cool.
+
+"Can I have a mint, Tom?" Sam asks.
+
+"No, it is mine. You have no mint," Tom says.
+
+Sam is sad. He wants a mint too. He sees another mint on the table. It is Mom's mint. She left it there.
+
+Sam takes the mint and puts it in his mouth. He smiles. He has a mint now.
+
+"Hey, that is not your mint! That is Mom's mint!" Tom yells.
+
+He is angry. He runs to Sam and tries to take the mint. Sam runs away. He does not want to give the mint.
+
+"Stop, stop! Give me the mint!" Tom shouts.
+
+"Leave me alone! It is my mint!" Sam shouts back.
+
+They run and shout. They make a lot of noise. Mom hears them. She comes to see what is wrong.
+
+"What are you doing, boys? Why are you angry?" Mom asks.
+
+"Sam took your mint, Mom! He is bad!" Tom says.
+
+"No, Tom is bad! He did not share his mint!" Sam says.
+
+Mom is not happy. She looks at the boys. She sees the mint in Sam's mouth.
+
+"Sam, did you take my mint?" Mom asks.
+
+Sam nods. He is sorry. He knows he did wrong.
+
+"Sam, that is not nice. You should not take things that are not yours. You should ask first. And Tom, you should not be angry. You should share with your friend. Mints are for everyone. Do you understand?" Mom says.
+
+Tom and Sam nod. They are sorry too. They know Mom is right.
+
+"Can we say sorry, Mom?" Tom asks.
+
+"Yes, you can. And you can hug each other. And you can have another mint. I have more in the kitchen. But only one each, okay?" Mom says.
+
+Tom and Sam say sorry. They hug each other. They smile. They have mints. They are friends. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big, wide slide. It is shiny and red.
+
+"Wow, look at that slide!" Lily says. "Can we ride it?"
+
+"Yes, let's go!" Ben says. They run to the slide and wait for their turn.
+
+When it is their turn, Lily goes first. She sits on the slide and holds the sides. She feels the slide is smooth and cold. She slides down very fast and laughs.
+
+"Yay, that was fun!" she says. "Your turn, Ben!"
+
+Ben nods and climbs up the stairs. He sits on the slide and lets go. He slides down very fast too. But he does not laugh. He screams.
+
+"Ouch, ouch, ouch!" he says. He feels something prick his leg. He looks down and sees a bee. The bee stung him. He is sad and scared.
+
+Lily hears him and runs to him. She sees the bee and the red spot on his leg.
+
+"Oh no, Ben, are you okay?" she asks. She gives him a hug and a kiss.
+
+"It hurts, Lily, it hurts!" Ben says. He cries and rubs his leg.
+
+Lily tries to make him feel better. She touches his leg gently and says, "Don't worry, Ben, it will be okay. The bee is gone. The sting will go away soon. You are brave and strong."
+
+Ben looks at Lily and smiles a little. He says, "Thank you, Lily, you are a good friend. You are kind and sweet."
+
+They hug again and walk to the bench. They sit down and wait for their mommies. They talk about the slide and the bee. They decide to ride the slide again another day. But they will be careful and watch out for bees. They are happy and proud. They are friends.
+Lily and Ben were going to camp with their mom and dad. They were very happy and excited. They packed their bags, their toys and their snacks. They got in the car and sang songs all the way.
+
+When they arrived at the camp, they saw a big lake, a lot of trees and a lot of tents. They found a spot to set up their own tent. Mom and dad helped them with the poles and the ropes. Lily and Ben helped with the blankets and the pillows.
+
+"Look, there are some kids over there!" Lily said, pointing to a group of children playing near the water. "Can we go and say hi?"
+
+"Sure, but be careful and stay close to us," mom said. "We'll make some lunch soon."
+
+Lily and Ben ran over to the other kids. They introduced themselves and asked if they could join them. The kids were very nice and cheerful. They invited Lily and Ben to play with them. They threw a ball, built a sandcastle and splashed in the water.
+
+But there was one kid who was not very nice. His name was Max. He liked to tease and make fun of the other kids. He called them silly names, took their toys and kicked their sandcastle.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Lily said, when Max grabbed her doll and threw it in the water. "That's not nice!"
+
+"Ha ha, you're such a baby!" Max said, sticking out his tongue. "You still play with dolls!"
+
+Ben saw what Max did and got very angry. He ran over to Max and pushed him. "Leave my sister alone!" he said. "You're a meanie!"
+
+Max pushed Ben back. "You're a crybaby!" he said. "You can't make me!"
+
+The other kids saw the fight and ran over to help. They tried to separate Max and Ben. They told Max to stop teasing and to say sorry. They told Ben to calm down and to share his toys.
+
+Mom and dad heard the noise and came over to see what was going on. They saw Max and Ben fighting and the other kids trying to stop them. They were not happy. They scolded Max and Ben for being rude and violent. They told them to apologize to each other and to the other kids. They told them to play nicely or to go to their tents.
+
+Max and Ben felt ashamed and sorry. They said sorry to each other and to the other kids. They gave back the toys they took and helped to fix the sandcastle. They promised to be more friendly and respectful.
+
+The other kids forgave them and welcomed them back to the group. They continued to play and have fun. They shared their toys, their snacks and their stories. They laughed and smiled and hugged.
+
+Lily and Ben were glad they made new friends. They thanked mom and dad for taking them to camp. They said they learned a lot and had a great time. They hoped to come back again.
+Anna likes to learn new words. She has a book with pictures and words from different places. She can say hello in many languages. She thinks languages are unique and fun.
+
+But Ben, her brother, does not like languages. He likes to play with cars and trucks. He thinks languages are boring and hard. He does not want to learn new words. He only wants to say words he knows.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben are in their room. Anna is looking at her book. She sees a picture of a flower. She says, "This is a flower. In Spanish, it is flor. In French, it is fleur. In German, it is blume." She smiles and turns the page.
+
+Ben is playing with his cars. He hears Anna. He gets angry. He says, "Stop saying those words! They are silly and wrong. You should only say flower. That is the right word." He grabs the book from Anna. He throws it on the floor.
+
+Anna is sad and mad. She says, "No, Ben! You are mean and rude. You should not take my book. You should not throw it. You should let me learn new words. They are not silly and wrong. They are unique and beautiful. They help me grow and know more things." She picks up the book. She hugs it.
+
+Ben and Anna start to yell at each other. They do not listen to each other. They do not understand each other. They are not happy.
+It was a cold day. Anna and Ben put on their coats and hats and went outside to play. They saw a big snowman in the park. He had a carrot nose, a scarf and a hat.
+
+"Hello, snowman!" Anna said. "Do you want to be our friend?"
+
+The snowman did not say anything. He just smiled.
+
+"Let's make another snowman!" Ben said. "We can use this ball of snow."
+
+They rolled the ball of snow on the ground. It got bigger and bigger. They made another ball for the head and put it on top. They gave the snowman eyes, a mouth and buttons.
+
+"Now he needs a nose," Anna said. "But we don't have another carrot."
+
+"Look, there is an orange on the ground!" Ben said. "Someone must have dropped it. We can use it for the nose."
+
+They picked up the orange and stuck it on the snowman's face. The snowman looked funny.
+
+"Ha ha, he has an orange nose!" Anna said. "He is different from the other snowman."
+
+The snowman with the orange nose shivered. He did not like the cold. He wished he was in a warm place, with trees and flowers and sun. He did not like the white landscape. He wanted to see colors.
+
+"Are you cold, snowman?" Ben asked. "Do you want a scarf and a hat?"
+
+The snowman nodded. He hoped the scarf and the hat would make him feel better.
+
+Anna and Ben ran to their house and got a scarf and a hat. They wrapped the scarf around the snowman's neck and put the hat on his head.
+
+"There, now you are cozy," Anna said. "Do you like it?"
+
+The snowman smiled. He was grateful for the kindness of the children. He felt a little warmer. He still wished he was in a different place, but he was happy to have friends. He said, "Thank you, Anna and Ben. You are very nice."
+Sam was a filthy boy. He liked to play in the mud and the dirt. He did not like to take a bath. He hated soap. He said soap was bad and made his skin hurt.
+
+One day, his mom said, "Sam, you need to take a bath. You are too filthy. You have mud on your face and your hair and your clothes. You smell bad. Come on, let's go to the bathroom."
+
+Sam said, "No, mom, no bath. I don't want soap. Soap is bad. Soap makes me suffer. I like mud. Mud is good. Mud makes me happy."
+
+His mom said, "Sam, don't be silly. Soap is not bad. Soap is good. Soap makes you clean and fresh and healthy. Mud is not good. Mud is dirty and germy and icky. If you don't take a bath, you will get sick and itchy and sad. You don't want to suffer, do you?"
+
+Sam said, "Yes, mom, I do. I want to suffer. I like to suffer. Suffering is fun. Soap is not fun. Soap is boring. I don't want to be clean and fresh and healthy. I want to be filthy and smelly and sick."
+
+His mom said, "Sam, you are being very naughty and stubborn. You are making me angry and sad. You have to take a bath. It is not a choice. It is a rule. Now, come with me or I will carry you."
+
+Sam said, "No, mom, no. Leave me alone. I will run away. I will hide. You can't catch me."
+
+Sam ran away from his mom. He hid under the bed. He thought he was safe. He thought he was smart. He thought he was happy.
+
+But he was wrong.
+
+His mom found him. She pulled him out. She carried him to the bathroom. She put him in the tub. She turned on the water. She grabbed the soap. She scrubbed him all over.
+
+Sam cried. He screamed. He kicked. He suffered.
+
+He learned his lesson.
+
+He never said no to a bath again.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of toys, because their mom and dad always bought them new ones. They were spoiled children, and they did not like to share.
+
+"Look at my new dinosaur!" Ben said, holding up a plastic toy with a long tail and sharp teeth. "It can roar and bite and spread its wings!"
+
+"That's not a dinosaur, that's a dragon!" Lily said, snatching the toy from Ben's hands. "And it's mine now!"
+
+"No, it's mine! Give it back!" Ben shouted, pulling the toy back. They started to fight over the toy, and the toy's tail and wings snapped off.
+
+"Look what you did!" Lily cried, throwing the broken toy on the floor. "You ruined it!"
+
+"I don't care, it was a stupid toy anyway!" Ben said, stomping on the toy. "You always take my things!"
+
+They both started to cry, and their mom came into the room. She saw the broken toy and the mess they had made. She was very angry.
+
+"What is going on here?" she asked, frowning. "Why are you fighting over a toy? And why did you break it?"
+
+"Ben took my dragon!" Lily said, pointing at Ben.
+
+"Lily took my dinosaur!" Ben said, pointing at Lily.
+
+Mom shook her head. "That's enough. You are both being very naughty and selfish. You need to learn how to share and be nice to each other. And you need to apologize for breaking the toy. It was a gift from your grandma, and she will be very sad if she sees it."
+
+Ben and Lily looked at each other, and felt ashamed. They knew their mom was right. They said sorry to each other, and hugged. They also said sorry to their mom, and promised to be better. Mom smiled, and hugged them too.
+
+"Good. Now, let's clean up this mess, and then we can have some cookies and milk. And maybe we can fix the toy later, or get a new one. But only if you promise to share it, and take good care of it. OK?"
+
+"OK, mom. We love you." Ben and Lily said, and helped their mom to tidy up the living room. They learned their lesson, and decided to be more grateful and kind. They also realized that playing together was more fun than fighting. And they enjoyed their cookies and milk, and their new toy.
+Lily and Ben were at the park with their mom. They saw a vendor with a big cart full of balloons. The vendor had a red hat and a pale face. He smiled at them and said, "Hello, little ones. Do you want a balloon?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and ran to the cart. They each picked a balloon. Lily chose a pink one and Ben chose a blue one. The vendor tied the balloons to their wrists and said, "That will be two coins, please."
+
+Mom gave the vendor two coins and thanked him. Lily and Ben thanked him too and waved goodbye. They were very happy with their balloons. They ran around the park, playing and laughing.
+
+But then, a big wind came and blew their balloons away. Lily and Ben tried to hold on to them, but the strings snapped. They watched their balloons fly higher and higher, until they disappeared in the sky.
+
+Lily and Ben felt very sad. They cried and hugged each other. Mom came and hugged them too. She said, "I'm sorry, my loves. Sometimes things happen that we can't control. But don't worry, we can get new balloons another day. How about we go get some ice cream instead?"
+
+Lily and Ben sniffed and nodded. They wiped their tears and smiled. They liked ice cream. They followed Mom to the ice cream shop and forgot about their balloons. They still had each other, and that was enough.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big melon on a table. It is green and round and smells good.
+
+"Can we have some melon?" Lila asks Ben.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe we should ask the lady who sells it." Ben says.
+
+They go to the lady and say hello. The lady smiles and says, "Hello, children. Do you want some melon?"
+
+"Yes, please. How much is it?" Lila says.
+
+"It is one dollar for a slice. Do you have money?" the lady says.
+
+Lila and Ben look at each other. They have some coins in their pockets. They count them and find out they have enough.
+
+"Here you go. We have one dollar." Ben says and gives the coins to the lady.
+
+"Thank you. Here is your melon. Enjoy!" the lady says and cuts a big slice for them.
+
+Lila and Ben take the melon and go to a bench. They share the melon and eat it. It is sweet and juicy and makes them happy.
+
+"This is the best melon ever!" Lila says.
+
+"I agree. It is so yummy!" Ben says.
+
+They finish the melon and wipe their mouths. They feel playful and want to have more fun.
+
+"Let's go to the swings!" Lila says.
+
+"OK. Let's go!" Ben says.
+
+They run to the swings and spend the rest of the day playing and laughing in the park. They are glad they have each other and the melon.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their mom. They liked to run and slide and swing and laugh. But they also liked to explore and find new things. One day, they saw a big green fence with a sign that said "Keep Out". They wondered what was behind the fence.
+
+"Let's go see," said Ben. He was brave and curious.
+
+"No, we can't," said Lily. She was careful and obedient. "Mom said we have to stay here. And the sign says no."
+
+But Ben did not listen. He found a hole in the fence and crawled through. Lily followed him. She did not want him to get lost or hurt.
+
+Behind the fence, they saw a lot of animals. There were dogs and cats and birds and rabbits. They were in cages and pens and boxes. They looked sad and scared. Lily and Ben felt sorry for them.
+
+"Who are they?" asked Lily.
+
+"They are pets," said Ben. "But they have no home or family. They are here to find one."
+
+"Can we help them?" asked Lily.
+
+"Maybe," said Ben. He saw a big red button that said "Open". He pressed it. All the cages and pens and boxes opened. The animals ran out. They were happy and free.
+
+"Yay!" said Lily and Ben. They clapped and cheered.
+
+But then they heard a loud voice. It was the man who worked at the fence. He was angry and mean.
+
+"Hey, you kids! What have you done? You let all the animals escape! Come here, now!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They did not want to get caught or yelled at. They looked for the hole in the fence. But they could not find it. There were too many animals and too much noise. It was difficult to see and hear.
+
+"Help!" they cried. "Mom!"
+
+Mom heard them. She ran to the fence. She saw the hole and crawled through. She found Lily and Ben. She hugged them and kissed them.
+
+"Are you okay?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, mom," they said.
+
+"Then let's go," she said. "We have to get out of here. Fast!"
+
+She took their hands and led them to the hole. They crawled through. They escaped. They were safe.
+
+Mom was not happy. She was worried and upset.
+
+"Why did you do that?" she asked. "You could have been hurt or lost. You have to listen to me and follow the rules. Do you understand?"
+
+"Yes, mom," they said. They were sorry and ashamed.
+
+They went back to the park. They saw the man and the animals. The man was trying to catch the animals. The animals were trying to hide and run. It was a big mess.
+
+Lily and Ben felt bad. They wanted to help the man and the animals. But they did not know how.
+
+They learned a lesson. They learned that some things are not for them to see or touch. They learned that some things are difficult and dangerous. They learned that they have to be careful and obedient. They learned that they have to stay with mom.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they find a big box. They think it is a rocket.
+
+"Let's go to the moon!" Lily says.
+
+"OK!" Tom says. They get inside the box. They make noises like a rocket.
+
+"Zoom! Zoom! Zoom!" they say.
+
+They pretend to fly in the sky. They see stars and planets. They have fun.
+
+But then, they hear a voice. It is Lily's mom.
+
+"Lily, Tom, where are you?" she calls.
+
+They stop playing. They look at each other.
+
+"Shh! Let's joke with mom!" Tom says.
+
+"OK!" Lily says. They stay quiet in the box.
+
+Lily's mom comes to the yard. She sees the box. She is curious.
+
+"What is this?" she says. She opens the box.
+
+"Surprise!" Lily and Tom say. They jump out of the box. They laugh.
+
+Lily's mom is surprised. She laughs too.
+
+"What a funny joke!" she says. "You two are very lucky. You have a lot of imagination. But now, it is time for lunch. Come inside."
+
+Lily and Tom follow her. They are happy. They like to joke. They like to play with the rocket. They are friends.
+Sara and Tom are playing in the garden. They have a big blue ball that they like to kick and catch. Sara kicks the ball very hard and it flies over the fence. Tom runs after it, but he cannot see it.
+
+"Where is the ball?" Tom asks. He is sad and angry.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is in the pond." Sara says. She points to the water that is behind the fence. The pond is wet and deep.
+
+Tom climbs over the fence and looks for the ball. He sees something blue in the water. He thinks it is the ball. He reaches for it, but it is not the ball. It is a frog. The frog jumps on Tom's hand and makes a loud noise. Tom is scared and drops the frog. He falls into the pond and gets wet.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tom cries. He does not like the water. He does not like the frog.

+Sara hears Tom and runs to the fence. She sees Tom in the pond. She laughs and says, "That is not the ball. That is a frog. You are silly, Tom."
+
+Tom does not think it is funny. He is cold and wet. He wants to get out of the pond. He swims to the edge and climbs out. He is dirty and wet. He is not happy.
+
+"Stop laughing, Sara. It is not nice. I don't like the pond. I don't like the frog. I want the ball." Tom says.
+
+Sara stops laughing. She sees that Tom is upset. She is sorry. She says, "I'm sorry, Tom. I did not mean to make you sad. The pond is not fun. The frog is not nice. The ball is better. Let's find the ball."
+
+Sara and Tom look for the ball. They find it in a bush. It is not wet. It is not dirty. It is still blue. They are happy. They hug the ball. They hug each other.
+
+"Let's go back to the garden. Let's play with the ball. Let's relax." Sara says.
+
+"OK. Let's go. Let's play. Let's relax." Tom says.

+Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big tree with red apples. They want to pick some apples to eat.
+
+"Look, Ben, the apples are so red and shiny!" Mia says.
+
+"Yes, they look yummy. Let's pick some!" Ben says.
+
+They run to the tree and try to reach the apples. But the apples are too high. They cannot pick them.
+
+"Maybe we can use a stick to knock them down," Mia says.
+
+She finds a long stick and gives it to Ben. Ben tries to hit the apples with the stick. But the stick is too heavy. He cannot lift it.
+
+"Oof, this stick is too heavy for me. I cannot care it," Ben says.
+
+He drops the stick and looks sad.
+
+"Maybe we can ask for help," Mia says.
+
+She sees a man walking his dog near the tree. She waves to him and calls.
+
+"Hello, sir, can you help us? We want to pick some apples, but they are too high and the stick is too heavy," Mia says.
+
+The man smiles and walks over to them. He sees the apples and the stick.
+
+"Sure, I can help you. I have a ladder in my car. I can bring it here and you can climb it and pick some apples," the man says.
+
+"Thank you, sir, you are very nice!" Ben and Mia say.
+
+The man goes to his car and brings the ladder. He sets it up against the tree. He helps Ben and Mia climb the ladder and pick some apples. They put the apples in a basket.
+
+"Here you go, kids, enjoy your apples. But be careful, don't eat too many or you will get a tummy ache," the man says.
+
+"Thank you, sir, you are very kind. We will care the apples and share them with our friends," Ben and Mia say.
+
+They climb down the ladder and hug the man. They take the basket and run to their friends. They show them the apples and tell them the story. They all eat some apples and thank the man. They have a fun day in the park.
+Sara likes to rub her cat, Luna. Luna is a black cat with green eyes. She is very soft and warm. Sara likes to make different styles with Luna's fur. She can make it spiky, curly, or smooth.
+
+One day, Sara's friend, Ben, came to play. Ben saw Luna and wanted to rub her too. He said, "Can I rub your cat? She is so pretty."
+
+Sara said, "Yes, you can. But be gentle. Luna is humble. She does not like loud noises or rough hands."
+
+Ben nodded and reached for Luna. But Luna did not like Ben. She hissed and scratched him. Ben cried and ran away.
+
+Sara felt sorry for Ben. She said, "Luna, that was not nice. Ben is my friend. He just wanted to rub you."
+
+Luna looked at Sara and meowed. She licked her paw and rubbed her head against Sara's leg. She was sorry too. She liked Sara, but she did not like strangers.
+
+Sara hugged Luna and said, "It's okay, Luna. I still love you. But you have to be nice to my friends. Maybe next time, you can let Ben rub you a little bit. He will be gentle, I promise."
+
+Luna purred and nodded. She was willing to try. She liked Sara's styles. She hoped Ben would make her spiky. She thought it was fun.
+Lily liked to play with cards. She had many cards with animals and colors on them. She liked to make pairs and show them to her mom and dad. One day, she saw a new card on the table. It had a big red truck on it. She wanted to play with it.
+
+She asked her mom, "Can I borrow this card, please?"
+
+Her mom said, "No, Lily, that is not your card. That is Ben's card. He is your cousin. He is coming to visit today. He likes trucks very much. You can play with him and his card later."
+
+Lily was sad. She really wanted to play with the truck card. She waited for Ben to come. She heard a noisy car outside. She ran to the window. She saw Ben and his mom and dad. They had a big bag with them. Lily hoped they had more cards in the bag.

+
+"Where are your gloves, Lila?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't have any," Lila said. "We are poor. We can't buy gloves."
+
+Ben felt sorry for Lila. He had an idea. He took off one of his gloves and gave it to Lila.
+

+
+Lila smiled. She put on the glove and held Ben's hand. They skipped to the swings. They felt warm and happy.

+
+At the museum, Jill saw a glass case. Inside the case, there was a doll. The doll looked like Anna, but older and fancier. The doll had a long dress and a gold crown.

+
+"Mommy, mommy, look at my letter!" she cries. She shows her mom her letter.
+
+Her mom hugs her and smiles. She says, "Don't worry, Lily. Your letter is still beautiful. Your grandma will love it. She will see how much you love her and how much you worked on it. A little dirt and water can't change that. Come on, let's go to the post office and mail it."

+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play hide and seek. One day, they decided to play in their big house. Anna said, "I will count to ten and you hide. No peeking!" Ben nodded and ran away. He looked for a good hiding spot. He saw a door that led to the attic. He had never been there before. He opened the door and climbed the stairs.
+
+The attic was dark and dusty. There were many old things, like boxes, clothes, and toys. Ben thought it was a great place to hide. He found a big trunk and crawled inside. He closed the lid and waited for Anna to find him.
+
+Anna counted to ten and opened her eyes. She looked for Ben in every room. She could not find him. She wondered where he was. She heard a noise from upstairs. She followed the sound and saw the door to the attic. She had never been there before. She opened the door and climbed the stairs.
+
+The attic was filthy and scary. There were cobwebs, rats, and spiders. Anna did not like it. She wanted to go back. She called, "Ben, where are you? I don't like it here. Come out, come out, wherever you are!"
+
+Ben heard Anna's voice. He wanted to surprise her. He waited for her to come closer. He heard her footsteps. He was ready to jump out. He pushed the lid of the trunk. But it did not open. It was stuck. He pushed harder. It did not budge. He was trapped. He yelled, "Anna, help! I'm in the trunk! I can't get out!"
+
+Anna heard Ben's cry. She was scared. She ran to the trunk. She tried to open it. But it was locked. She did not have the key. She cried, "Ben, I'm sorry! I can't open it! I'll get mom and dad!"
+
+She ran down the stairs. She looked for mom and dad. But they were not home. They had gone to the store. They had left a note. It said, "We'll be back soon. Don't go to the attic. It's dangerous. Love, mom and dad."
+
+Anna realized she had made a big mistake. She had delayed her brother's rescue. She had gone to the attic. She had ignored the note. She had put Ben in danger. She felt very bad.

+
+"Look, mom, I'm so fast!" Sara says.
+
+"You're both very fast and brave!" mom says.
+
+Then they go to the swing and push each other. They feel the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They smile and sing.
+
+"Look, mom, I'm so high!" Ben says.
+
+"You're both very high and strong!" mom says.
+
+Then they go to the sandbox and make a castle. They use a bucket, a shovel, and some shells. They work hard and make a beautiful castle.
+

+Lila was a little girl who liked to play with her toys. She had many toys, but her favorite was a doll named Anna. Anna had long hair, a pretty dress, and blue eyes. Lila loved Anna very much and took her everywhere.
+
+One day, Lila went to the park with her mom and Anna. She saw some other kids playing with their toys. They had cars, balls, and blocks. Lila wanted to join them, but they said no. They said Anna was different and did not belong. They said dolls were for babies, not big kids. They laughed at Lila and Anna and made them feel sad.
+
+Lila ran away from the mean kids and found a bench. She hugged Anna and cried. She did not understand why they were so mean. She wished they could be friends. She did not care if Anna was different. She loved her anyway.
+
+But then, something bad happened. A big dog came to the bench and saw Anna. He thought Anna was a toy for him. He grabbed Anna with his teeth and ran away. Lila screamed and chased the dog, but he was too fast. She could not catch him. She lost Anna.
+
+Lila was very sad. She cried and cried. She wanted Anna back. She missed her so much. She felt alone and scared. She did not have any friends. She did not have any toys. She did not have anything. She wished she never went to the park. She wished she stayed home with Anna. She wished everything was different.
+Lily liked to dream. She dreamed of big things and small things. She dreamed of flying and swimming. She dreamed of animals and flowers. She dreamed of colors and shapes.
+
+One day, Lily had a new mark. It was on her arm. It was red and itchy. Lily did not like the mark. It hurt and it was dry. She wanted the mark to go away.
+
+Lily asked her mom what the mark was. Mom said it was a bug bite. She said it would get better soon. She gave Lily some cream and a band-aid. She said the cream would make the mark feel better. She said the band-aid would keep the mark clean.
+
+Lily put the cream and the band-aid on her mark. She said thank you to mom. She went to bed. She hoped the mark would be gone in the morning. She closed her eyes and dreamed of happy things. She dreamed of stars and rainbows. She dreamed of ice cream and cake. She dreamed of hugs and kisses. She smiled in her sleep.
+Lily liked to draw with her crayons. She had many colors, but her favorite was purple. She thought purple was a unique color, because it was not like red or blue or yellow. She liked to make purple flowers, purple stars, and purple cats.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom and saw a boy drawing on the ground with a chalk. He had a big box of chalks, but he only used one color: green. He made green trees, green frogs, and green cars.
+
+Lily walked up to him and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. What are you drawing?"
+
+The boy looked up and said, "Hi, I'm Max. I'm drawing with green. Green is the best color. It is the color of grass and leaves and money."
+
+Lily said, "Green is a nice color, but I like purple more. Purple is a unique color. It is the color of grapes and plums and magic."
+
+Max said, "Purple is a weird color. It is not a real color. It is just a mix of red and blue. Green is a real color. It is the color of nature and life."
+
+Lily and Max stared at each other for a moment. Then Lily had an idea. She took out her purple crayon and said, "Do you want to try my purple crayon? Maybe you will like it."
+
+Max hesitated, but then he nodded. He took the purple crayon and drew a purple dinosaur next to his green car. He smiled and said, "This is fun. Purple is not so bad. It is a unique color."
+
+Lily nodded back and said, "Do you want to try my other crayons? I have many colors. Maybe you will like them too."
+
+Max nodded again and said, "Yes, please. I want to try your other crayons. Maybe I will like them too."
+
+Lily and Max shared their crayons and drew many things on the ground. They used red and blue and yellow and orange and pink and brown and black and white. They made a rainbow, a sun, a moon, a house, a dog, a bird, a cake, and a heart. They had fun and became friends. They learned that colors are not better or worse than each other. They are just different and unique.
+Lily and Sam liked to play by the river. They had a raft that they made with their dad. It was big and strong and had a sail. They wanted to take the raft to the other side of the river, where there were many flowers and trees.
+
+"Can we take the raft today, dad?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. The river is fast and deep. And watch out for the huge fish that lives in the water. He likes to splash and jump and sometimes he bites," dad said.
+
+Lily and Sam nodded and put on their life jackets. They pushed the raft into the water and climbed on. They used a stick to steer and the wind to move. They had fun and sang songs.
+
+But then they saw something in the water. It was big and gray and had a fin. It was the huge fish that dad warned them about. It swam towards the raft and opened its mouth.
+
+"Look, Sam, it's the huge fish!" Lily shouted.
+
+"Quick, Lily, let's go back!" Sam said.
+
+They tried to turn the raft around, but it was too late. The huge fish bit the raft and made a hole. The water came in and the raft started to sink.
+
+Lily and Sam were scared. They held on to each other and screamed for help.
+
+Dad heard them and ran to the river. He saw the huge fish and the sinking raft. He grabbed a rope and threw it to Lily and Sam.
+
+"Hold on, kids, I'm coming!" dad said.
+
+Lily and Sam caught the rope and dad pulled them to the shore. He hugged them and checked if they were okay.
+
+"Are you hurt, kids?" dad asked.
+
+"No, dad, we're fine. But the raft is gone. The huge fish took it," Lily said.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids. The raft was fun, but you are more important. I'm glad you're safe. Next time, we'll make a new raft. And we'll stay away from the huge fish," dad said.
+
+Lily and Sam nodded and smiled. They were happy that dad saved them. They learned a lesson and never went near the huge fish again.
+Sam and Mia were playing with their toys in the living room. Sam had a laser that made bright lights and sounds. Mia had a doll that she liked to dress up and hug. Sam wanted to play with Mia's doll, but Mia said no.
+
+"Please, can I have your doll?" Sam asked.
+
+"No, it is mine. You have your laser," Mia said.
+
+"But I want to try your doll. It looks fun," Sam said.
+
+"No, go away. You are not polite," Mia said.
+
+Sam got angry and kicked Mia's doll. The doll flew across the room and hit the wall. Mia started to cry. She ran to her doll and picked it up. The doll's head was broken and its dress was torn.
+
+"Look what you did! You are mean and rude! I hate you!" Mia shouted.
+
+Sam felt sorry and scared. He wanted to say sorry, but he did not know how. He also wanted to hug Mia, but he thought she would kick him. He ran to his laser and turned it on. He hoped the laser would make him happy.
+
+But the laser did not work. It only made a weak light and a low sound. Sam looked at the laser and saw that it was cracked. He realized that he had kicked it too hard when he was angry. He had broken his own toy.
+
+Sam started to cry too. He had no doll and no laser. He had no friend and no fun. He wished he had been polite and shared with Mia. He learned that kicking is bad and hurts others and himself. He learned that being polite is good and makes others and himself happy.
+One day, Ben and Mia wanted to play in the park. But they had to cross a big road with many cars. They waited for the green light, but it was too long.
+
+"Let's march across the road!" Ben said. "We can be like soldiers and go fast and loud."
+
+"No, Ben, that is not safe!" Mia said. "The cars can hit us and hurt us. We have to wait for the green light and look both ways."
+
+"But I am bored of waiting!" Ben said. "And I am clever. I can see when the cars stop and go."
+
+Ben did not listen to Mia. He ran to the road and started to march. He said, "Left, right, left, right!"
+
+Mia was scared. She saw a big car coming fast. She shouted, "Ben, stop! The car is not stopping!"
+
+Ben heard Mia and looked. He saw the car too. He was afraid. He tried to run back, but he tripped and fell.
+
+Mia ran to help him. She grabbed his hand and pulled him to the sidewalk. The car zoomed past them and honked.
+
+Ben was crying. He had a scratch on his knee and a bump on his head. Mia hugged him and said, "Ben, you are not clever. You are silly. You could have been hurt very bad. You have to listen to me and follow the rules. The road is not a place to play."
+
+Ben nodded. He said, "I am sorry, Mia. You are right. You are clever and kind. You saved me. Thank you."
+
+Mia smiled. She said, "You are welcome, Ben. I am glad you are okay. Let's go to the park now. But first, let's find a band-aid for your knee and a ice pack for your head."
+
+They walked to the park, holding hands. They waited for the green light and looked both ways. They did not march. They walked.
+Tom liked to dress like a big man. He had a leather jacket, a helmet and boots. He wanted to ride a motorcycle like his dad. His dad had a big, loud motorcycle that he parked in the garage.
+
+One day, Tom saw his dad go out and leave the garage open. He ran to the garage and saw the motorcycle. He put on his jacket, his helmet and his boots. He climbed on the motorcycle and tried to start it. He did not know how to do it. He pushed and pulled and twisted and turned.
+
+The motorcycle made a harsh noise and jumped. Tom fell off and hit his head on the floor. He cried and cried. He had a big bump on his head and blood on his jacket. He was very hurt and scared.
+
+His dad came back and heard the noise. He ran to the garage and saw Tom on the floor. He was very angry and sad. He picked up Tom and took him to the doctor. He said to Tom, "You are a very naughty boy. You should never touch the motorcycle. It is dangerous and not for you. You could have died. You are grounded for a long time."
+
+Tom felt very sorry and ashamed. He wished he had not tried to ride the motorcycle. He learned a hard lesson. He did not dress like a big man anymore. He played with his toys and listened to his dad. He hoped his dad would forgive him and love him.

+Sara does not want to play with her toys. She wants to play the piano. She thinks mom is silly. She thinks mom does not hear the piano. She thinks mom does not hear the beauty. She thinks mom does not hear her. She cries. She does not like to hear the piano anymore.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They liked to run, slide and swing. It was a sunny day, so they wore sunglasses to protect their eyes. Lily had pink sunglasses and Max had blue sunglasses.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can swing very high!" Max said. He pushed his legs and went up and down.
+
+"Wow, Max, you are so brave!" Lily said. She clapped her hands and smiled.
+
+But then, Max saw something that made him scared. A big dog was barking at them from behind the fence. It had sharp teeth and a loud voice. Max stopped swinging and held on to the chains.

+
+Lily and Max felt sorry for Rex. They wanted to help him too.
+
+"Can we pet Rex? Can we give him a treat?" Lily and Max asked.
+
+The man nodded and gave them a biscuit. Lily and Max gently stroked Rex's fur and gave him the biscuit. Rex licked their hands and thanked them.

+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had many toys, like balls, cars, dolls and blocks. But they did not like to organize their toys. They left them everywhere in the soil, and sometimes they lost them or broke them.
+
+One day, their mom said, "Lily and Tom, you have to organize your toys. If you don't, they will get dirty or ruined. And you will have no space to play. Do you want that?"
+
+Lily and Tom shook their heads. They did not want that. But they did not know how to organize their toys. They had so many, and they were all different.
+
+Mom said, "I will help you. First, we will sort your toys by type. All the balls go in this basket, all the cars go in that box, all the dolls go in this bag, and all the blocks go in that bin. Then, we will clean your toys with water and soap. And finally, we will put your toys in a shelf in the garage. That way, you can find them easily and keep them safe. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They understood. They followed mom's instructions and helped her organize their toys. It took some time, but they had fun. They saw some toys they had forgotten, and they made some new combinations with their blocks. They also learned some new words, like basket, box, bag and bin.
+
+When they finished, they looked at their garden. It was clean and tidy. They looked at their shelf. It was full and colorful. They looked at their mom. She was smiling and proud.
+
+Mom said, "Well done, Lily and Tom. You did a great job. Now you can play with your toys whenever you want. But remember, you have to organize them again when you are done. That way, you will respect your toys and your garden. And you will be happy and responsible. Do you agree?"

+
+But when they got home, they found out that the man was a liar. The card had no code. It had a bad word and a mean face. The man had tricked them. He had taken their money and their photo. He had not given them anything. Anna and Ben were sad and angry. They felt cheated and hurt. They wished they had never met the man. They wished they had their photo. They cried and hugged their moms. They hoped the man would be caught and punished. They hoped they would gain their photo back someday.
+Tom and Mia like to play with blocks. They build towers and houses and cars with the blocks. They have fun and laugh a lot.

+One day, Tom and Mia find a big box of blocks in the closet. They are very happy and take the box to the living room. They open the box and see many colors and shapes of blocks. They start to make a big castle with the blocks.
+
+But then, Tom sees a shiny block that looks like a star. He wants to have it for his castle. He reaches for the block, but it is on top of Mia's house. He pulls the block, but he pulls too hard. He breaks Mia's house and the blocks fall down. Mia is sad and angry. She cries and yells at Tom.
+
+Tom is sorry and scared. He says he did not mean to break Mia's house. He says he just wanted the star block. He asks Mia a question. He says, "Can we still be friends?"

+Mia is still sad and angry. She does not answer Tom's question. She picks up the star block and throws it at Tom. The star block hits Tom's castle and breaks it too. The blocks fall down. Tom is sad and angry. He cries and yells at Mia.

+
+Then, Mom comes in. She sees the blocks and the kids. She is not happy. She asks Tom and Mia what happened. She says, "Why did you break the blocks? Why are you crying and yelling? Why are you not playing nicely?"
+
+Tom and Mia do not know what to say. They are ashamed and afraid. They do not answer Mom's question. They look at the floor.
+
+Mom sighs and shakes her head. She says, "You need to learn how to share and care. You need to say sorry and hug. You need to help and clean. You need to be good and kind."
+
+Mom takes a wet cloth and wipes the tears and the dirt from Tom and Mia's faces. She gives them a hug and a kiss. She says, "I love you, but you need to do better. Will you do better?"
+
+Tom and Mia nod and say, "Yes, Mom. We will do better." They say sorry and hug each other. They say, "We are still friends." They smile and feel better.
+

+Sara and Tom were playing with their toy cars in the yard. They liked to make them go fast and make loud noises. Sara had a red car and Tom had a blue car. They pretended they were racing on a big road.
+
+"Beep beep! I'm faster than you!" Tom said, pushing his car ahead of Sara's.
+
+"No, you're not! I'll catch you!" Sara said, pushing her car harder.
+
+But Tom was careless. He did not look where he was going. He pushed his car into a big rock and fell down. He hurt his knee and it started to bleed. He cried out loud.
+
+"Ow ow ow! It hurts!" Tom said, holding his knee.
+
+Sara heard him and stopped her car. She ran to him and saw his wound. She felt sorry for him. She remembered that her mom had a bandage in her bag. She went to get it and came back to Tom.
+

+"Thank you, Sara. You're very kind," Tom said, smiling a little.
+
+"I'm sorry you got hurt. Next time, be careful and watch out for rocks," Sara said.
+
+"OK, I will. Do you want to play some more?" Tom said.
+
+"Sure, but let's play something else. How about we make a castle with the sand?" Sara said.
+
+"OK, that sounds fun. Let's go!" Tom said.
+
+They took their cars and went to the sandpit. They forgot about the race and the rock. They had fun making a castle together. They were good friends.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were cooks and serve food to their toys. They used leaves, flowers, dirt and stones to make their dishes.

+

+
+Mommy hugged them and said, "Don't worry, my loves, the firemen are coming to put out the fire and help the people. They are very brave and good. Let's go inside and wait until it is safe."
+
+She took them inside and gave them some juice and cookies. She told them stories and sang songs to calm them down. They felt better and hoped the people next door were okay. They thanked mommy for serving them and taking care of them. They learned that fire and ash can be scary, but mommy and firemen can help.
+Lily liked to bathe in the big tub with her toys. She had a duck, a frog, a boat and a cup. She made bubbles with the shampoo and put them on her head. She pretended she was a princess with a crown.
+
+One day, her brother Tom came into the bathroom. He was rude. He said, "Lily, you are silly. You are not a princess. You are a baby. And you are making a mess with the shampoo. Give it to me." He grabbed the bottle from her hand and squirted it on the floor.
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She said, "Tom, you are mean. You are not a king. You are a bully. And you are wasting the shampoo. Give it back to me." She reached for the bottle, but Tom was taller and stronger. He held it high and laughed.
+
+Lily had an idea. She used her cup to scoop some water and bubbles. She threw them at Tom's face. He was surprised and dropped the bottle. Lily caught it and said, "Ha! Now I have the shampoo. And you are wet and soapy. Go away, Tom. You are not welcome in my bath."
+
+Tom ran out of the bathroom, crying and rubbing his eyes. Lily smiled and said, "That will teach him. He should not be rude to me. I am a princess. And I like to bathe with my shampoo." She put the bottle back on the edge of the tub and played with her toys. She was happy.
+Lila and Tom are playing in the park. They see a big stone with writing on it. They run to the stone and touch it.

+"What is this?" Lila asks.
+
+"It is a law," Tom says. "A very old law."
+
+"What is a law?" Lila asks.
+
+"A law is a rule that people have to follow," Tom says. "Like, you have to share your toys and say please and thank you."
+
+"Who made this law?" Lila asks.
+
+"I don't know," Tom says. "Maybe someone very ancient."
+
+"What is ancient?" Lila asks.
+
+"Ancient is very, very old," Tom says. "Older than grandma and grandpa. Older than the trees and the birds. Older than the sun and the moon."
+
+Lila and Tom look at the stone with wonder. They try to read the writing, but they don't understand it. They make up their own words and laugh.
+
+"Let's get some ice cream," Lila says.
+
+"OK," Tom says. "But first, let's make a new law."
+

+
+She got off the slide. She saw her ice-cream. It was dirty and melted. She cried. She said, "I want my ice-cream. I want my ice-cream." Mum came to her. She said, "I'm sorry, Lily. You can't have your ice-cream. It's gone. You have to be more careful. And look at your dress. It's not tidy. It has ice-cream on it. We have to go home and change it."
+
+Lily was very angry. She did not want to go home. She did not want to change her dress. She wanted her ice-cream. She said, "No, no, no. I don't want to go home. I don't want to change my dress. I want my ice-cream. I want my ice-cream." She stamped her feet. She threw a tantrum. Mum was very cross. She said, "Stop it, Lily. You are being naughty. You have to go home. Now." She took Lily by the hand. She dragged her to the car. Lily kept crying. She kept saying, "I want my ice-cream. I want my ice-cream." Tom followed them. He was quiet. He ate his ice-cream.

+
+One day, she saw a small house in the forest. She was curious. She wanted to see what was inside. She knocked on the door, but no one answered. She opened the door and went in. She saw a table, a chair, a bed and a cupboard. She searched the cupboard and found a jar of honey. She was hungry. She took the jar and opened it.
+
+"Who are you?" a voice said. The woman turned around and saw a bear. The bear was angry. He lived in the house. The honey was his. He did not like strangers. He growled and showed his teeth.
+
+The woman was scared. She dropped the jar and ran out of the house. She did not look back. She ran to the forest. She did not search for anything else that day. She learned a lesson.

+
+"Muscle is what makes you strong," Mom says. "You have muscle in your arms, your legs, your chest, and your back. You need to wash your muscle too."
+
+"Why?" Sam says.
+

+
+He put the disgusting soldier in his backpack and walked to the store. He hoped his mom would not be angry with him. He hoped the store owner would forgive him. He hoped he could still play with his old soldiers. He learned that owning things was not as important as being good and kind.

+Lily liked to play with her trumpet. She got it from her grandma, who was very generous. She liked to make loud noises with it and pretend she was in a band. She would tell her friends to clap and dance when she played.

+Lily was shocked and scared. She begged the mom to give her trumpet back. She said, "Please, please, don't do that. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I love my trumpet. It was a gift from my grandma. Please, please, don't throw it away."
+
+But the mom didn't listen. She walked away with the trumpet and threw it in a big bin. Lily ran after her, but it was too late. She saw her trumpet disappear in the garbage. She felt a big pain in her heart. She cried and cried. She wished she never met that boy. She wished she never played her trumpet in the park. She wished she could have her trumpet back.

+"Stop, robber, stop!" Anna shouted. "You are bad and you have to go to jail!"
+
+Ben ran faster and faster, but he was not careful. He stepped on a delicate flower that Mom had planted. The flower broke and fell to the ground.
+
+"Oh no!" Ben cried. "I'm sorry, Mom, I'm sorry!"
+
+Anna caught up with him and grabbed his arm. "Ha, I got you, robber! Now you have to go to jail and relax there for a long time!"
+
+She dragged him to the corner of the garden, where they had made a jail with some sticks and a blanket. She put him inside and closed the blanket.
+
+"Please, cop, please, let me out!" Ben begged. "I didn't mean to hurt the flower, I was just playing!"
+
+Anna looked at him and thought for a moment. She felt sorry for him, but she also wanted to teach him a lesson.
+
+"OK, robber, I will let you out, but only if you promise to be good and to say sorry to Mom and to the flower," she said.
+
+Ben nodded and said, "I promise, I promise, I'm sorry, Mom, I'm sorry, flower!"
+
+Anna opened the blanket and let him out. They hugged and said sorry to each other. Then they went to Mom and told her what happened. Mom was not happy, but she was also proud of them for being honest and kind. She gave them a hug and a kiss and said they could play again, but they had to be careful and not step on the flowers.
+
+Anna and Ben agreed and went back to the garden. They decided to play something else, something that did not involve running or chasing or breaking. They played with their dolls and cars and had a lot of fun. They were happy and relaxed.
+Lily and Max were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a doll and Max had a car. They were having fun, making noises and stories with their toys.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, my car is fast and strong!" Max said, zooming his car around the couch.
+
+"My doll is pretty and kind, she likes to sing and dance!" Lily said, twirling her doll in the air.
+
+Max saw Lily's doll and wanted to play with it. He drove his car towards her and snatched the doll from her hands.
+
+"Hey, give it back!" Lily cried, trying to grab the doll.
+
+"No, it's mine now!" Max said, holding the doll away from her.
+
+Lily was angry and sad. She wanted her doll back. She looked around and saw Max's car on the floor. She had an idea. She picked up the car and threw it at Max.
+
+"Ow!" Max yelled, dropping the doll. The car hit his head and made a bump.
+
+Lily ran to get her doll and hugged it. She was happy to have it back. She looked at Max and saw his bump. She felt sorry for him.
+
+"Are you okay?" she asked, walking towards him.
+
+Max rubbed his head and nodded. He was okay. The car was harmless, but it hurt. He looked at Lily and saw her doll. He felt sorry for him.
+
+"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have taken your doll," he said, looking down.
+
+"It's okay, I shouldn't have thrown your car," she said, looking up.
+
+They smiled at each other and hugged. They were friends again. They decided to share their toys and play together.
+
+"Let's finish our story, okay?" Lily said, handing Max his car.
+
+"Okay, let's finish our story," Max said, taking his car.
+
+They went back to the couch and continued playing with their toys. They were having fun, making noises and stories with their toys.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the sand near the sea. One day, they saw a big shark in the water. It had sharp teeth and a long tail. They were scared and ran away.
+
+"Let's plan how to scare the shark away," Lily said. "Maybe we can make a loud noise or throw rocks at it."
+
+"That's a good idea," Ben said. "But we have to be careful. The shark might get angry and chase us."
+
+They looked around and found some sticks and shells. They also saw a big bucket and a rope. They had a thoughtful idea.
+
+They filled the bucket with sand and shells. They tied the rope to the bucket and the other end to a tree. They hid behind some bushes and waited for the shark to come closer.
+
+When the shark was near the shore, they pulled the rope hard. The bucket flew in the air and landed on the shark's head. The shark was surprised and hurt. It made a loud roar and swam away fast.
+
+Lily and Ben cheered and hugged each other. They had scared the shark away. They were brave and smart. They went back to play in the sand and had fun. They were happy.
+Lily liked to run. She ran in the park, she ran in the yard, she ran in the hall. She ran so fast that her mom and dad could not catch her. She ran so much that she got tired and hungry.
+
+One day, Lily and her mom went to the library. The library was a big building with many books. Lily liked books. She liked to look at the pictures and hear the stories. She ran to the children's section and picked a book about a princess.
+
+"Mom, can you read this to me?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, sweetie. Let's find a cozy spot." Mom said.
+
+They sat on a soft couch and mom opened the book. The book was about a princess who lived in a castle. She had many dresses, jewels, toys and friends. She was very wealthy. But she was not happy. She wanted to run and play and explore the world.
+
+"Mom, why is she not happy?" Lily asked.
+
+"Because she has everything, but she can't do what she loves. She has to follow many rules and be polite and quiet all the time." Mom said.
+
+"That's sad. I would not like that. I like to run and be loud and have fun." Lily said.
+
+"Me too, honey. Running and having fun are more important than being wealthy. You are very lucky to have a mom and dad who love you and let you run and play." Mom said.
+
+"I love you, mom. And I love running. Can we run some more after the story?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, my little runner. Let's finish the story and then we can run some more." Mom said.
+
+They hugged and smiled and read the book. Lily learned that being wealthy is not the same as being happy. She was happy with her mom and her books and her running. She was a happy runner.
+Lily and Max were playing knights and dragons in the garden. Lily had a wooden sword and Max had a cardboard shield. They pretended to fight the big dragon that was hiding behind the tree.
+
+"Roar!" the dragon said. It was really their dog, Rex, who liked to join their games. Rex jumped out and ran towards them, wagging his tail.
+
+"Watch out, Lily!" Max shouted. He tried to protect Lily with his shield, but he was clumsy and tripped over a rock. His shield flew out of his hand and landed on the grass.
+
+Lily saw the shield and had an idea. She picked it up and held it in front of Rex. She made a funny face and said, "Boo!"
+
+Rex stopped and tilted his head. He was not scared of Lily, he was curious. He sniffed the shield and licked it. Then he wagged his tail again and licked Lily's face.
+
+Lily and Max laughed. They hugged Rex and said, "You are a good dragon, Rex. We love you."
+
+They learned that sometimes you don't need to fight, you can use your shield to make friends.
+Lila and Tom were friends who liked to play in the valley. The valley had many flowers, trees and animals. They liked to run, jump and sing in the valley.
+
+One day, they saw a big hill in the valley. They wanted to climb the hill and see what was on the other side. They asked their moms if they could go. Their moms said yes, but they had to be careful and come back soon.
+
+Lila and Tom started to climb the hill. It was hard and steep. They had to use their hands and feet to gain the top. They helped each other and cheered each other on.
+
+When they reached the top, they saw a beautiful lake. The lake was blue and shiny. They saw fish, ducks and frogs in the lake. They also saw a boat and a house by the lake.
+
+"Wow, this is amazing!" Lila said.
+
+"Let's go and see the boat and the house!" Tom said.
+
+They ran down the hill and went to the lake. They saw a man and a woman by the boat. They waved and said hello.
+
+"Hello, kids. Who are you?" the man asked.
+
+"We are Lila and Tom. We live in the valley. We climbed the hill and saw your lake. It is very pretty," Lila said.
+
+"Thank you. We are Ben and Anna. We moved here last week. We like the lake too. It is very peaceful," Anna said.
+
+"Do you want to ride the boat with us?" Ben asked.
+
+"Yes, please!" Lila and Tom said.
+
+They got on the boat and Ben rowed them around the lake. They saw more animals and plants. They had fun and laughed a lot.
+
+"You are very nice and brave kids. You are welcome to visit us anytime," Anna said.
+
+"Thank you. You are very kind and popular. We like you a lot," Tom said.
+
+They became friends and played together often. Lila and Tom were happy to have new friends in the valley.
+Tommy liked to go to the park with his mom. He liked to play on the swings, the slide and the sandbox. He also liked to look at the flowers, the birds and the people. He saw many different people in the park. Some were big, some were small, some were old, some were young, some were happy, some were sad.
+
+One day, he saw a pretty lady in the park. She had long hair, a nice dress and a big smile. She was sitting on a bench, reading a book. Tommy thought she looked like a princess. He wanted to say hello to her, but he was shy. He asked his mom if he could go to the bench. His mom said yes, but he had to be polite and not bother the lady.
+
+Tommy walked to the bench, holding his mom's hand. He looked at the lady with big eyes. She looked at him and smiled. She said hello and asked his name. He said his name was Tommy. She said her name was Anna. She asked if he liked the park. He said he liked it very much. He said he liked her too. She said she liked him too. She asked if he wanted to see her book. He said yes. She showed him her book. It had pictures of animals and words. She read some of the words to him. He liked the words. He said they were funny.
+
+He asked if he could touch her hair. She said yes, but he had to be gentle. He touched her hair. He said it was soft. He asked if he could kiss her. She said yes, but he had to ask his mom first. He looked at his mom. His mom nodded and smiled. He kissed the lady on the cheek. She kissed him back on the cheek. He said he liked her kiss. She said she liked his kiss too. They hugged and laughed.
+
+His mom said it was time to go home. He said goodbye to the lady. She said goodbye to him. She gave him her book as a gift. He thanked her and said he would read it at home. He said he hoped to see her again. She said she hoped to see him again too. He waved at her as he left the park. She waved back at him. He was happy. She was happy. They had made a new friend.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and draw pictures. One day, they go to Ben's house. Ben's mom says they can have a snack in the kitchen.
+
+Ben shows Anna his new plate. It is blue and has a car on it. Ben likes cars a lot. He says, "This is my plate. It is very cool. Do you like it?"
+
+Anna nods. She thinks the plate is nice. She says, "Yes, I like it. It is very cool. Can I see it?"
+
+Ben hands Anna his plate. Anna holds it carefully. She looks at the car. She says, "Wow, this car is fast. It has big wheels and a loud horn. Beep beep!"
+
+Ben smiles. He says, "Yes, it is fast. It can go zoom zoom. Do you want to play with it?"
+
+Anna says, "Yes, I do. Let's play with it." She puts the plate on the floor. She pretends to drive the car. She makes noises. She says, "Zoom zoom! Beep beep! Vroom vroom!"
+
+Ben joins her. He also pretends to drive the car. He makes noises. He says, "Zoom zoom! Beep beep! Vroom vroom!"
+
+They have fun. They laugh and giggle. They do not hear Ben's mom coming.
+
+Ben's mom sees them. She is surprised. She says, "What are you doing? That is not a toy. That is a plate. You should not play with it. You could break it. It is for eating, not for driving."
+
+Anna and Ben stop. They look at Ben's mom. They feel embarrassed. They say, "Sorry, mom. Sorry, Ben. We did not know. We thought it was a toy. It looked like a toy. It was fun."
+
+Ben's mom sighs. She says, "It is okay. I know you did not mean to. But you should be careful. Plates are not toys. They are fragile. They can hang on the wall or sit on the table. But they cannot drive on the floor. Do you understand?"
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They say, "Yes, mom. Yes, Ben. We understand. Plates are not toys. They are fragile. They can hang on the wall or sit on the table. But they cannot drive on the floor."
+
+Ben's mom smiles. She says, "Good. Now, why don't you pick up the plate and put it back on the table. Then you can have your snack. I have some cookies and milk for you. Do you like cookies and milk?"
+
+Anna and Ben smile. They say, "Yes, mom. Yes, Ben. We like cookies and milk. Thank you." They pick up the plate and put it back on the table. They wash their hands and sit on the chairs. They have their snack. They are happy. They are still friends.
+Lila and Ben are playing in the kitchen. They see a big pot on the stove. It smells good. They want to taste it.
+
+They climb on a chair and look inside the pot. They see red sauce and meatballs. They are hungry. They take a spoon and dip it in the sauce.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Lila cries. She drops the spoon. The sauce is spicy. It hurts her tongue. She runs to the sink and drinks water.
+
+Ben laughs. He thinks Lila is silly. He takes the spoon and tries the sauce. He thinks he is brave. He puts the spoon in his mouth.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Ben cries. He drops the spoon. The sauce is spicy. It hurts his tongue. He runs to the sink and drinks water.
+
+Lila and Ben are both crying. They hear Mom coming. They are scared. They know they are not supposed to touch the pot.
+
+They hide under the table. They hope Mom will not see them.
+
+Mom comes in the kitchen. She sees the pot. She sees the spoon. She sees the sauce on the floor. She knows what happened.
+
+She looks under the table. She sees Lila and Ben. They look sad. They look sorry.
+
+Mom is not angry. She is kind. She hugs them. She tells them the sauce is for dinner. She tells them it is spicy. She tells them they have to wait. She tells them they have to yield.
+
+Lila and Ben nod. They say they are sorry. They say they will yield.
+
+Mom smiles. She gives them a cracker. She tells them to wash their hands. She tells them to play in the living room.
+
+Lila and Ben go to the living room. They see their toys. They see their books. They see their lock. They like their lock. They can make shapes with it. They can make animals with it. They can make anything with it.
+
+They forget about the sauce. They forget about the pain. They play with their lock. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. They were very happy.
+
+"Look at our snowman, he is so nice!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, he is the best snowman ever!" Ben said.
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. It was an ambulance. It was coming fast on the icy road. Lily and Ben saw the red and blue lights. They were scared.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"It is an ambulance. It helps people who are hurt." Ben said.
+
+The ambulance stopped near their house. Two people came out. They had white clothes and a bag. They ran to the door. Lily and Ben followed them.
+
+They saw their mom lying on the floor. She was holding her belly. She looked very pale. She was crying.
+
+"Mommy, what is wrong?" Lily asked.
+
+"Mommy is sick, honey. She needs to go to the hospital." One of the people said.
+
+They put Mommy on a bed with wheels. They took her to the ambulance. They told Lily and Ben to come with them.
+
+Lily and Ben were very worried. They hugged Mommy. They told her they loved her.
+
+"Mommy, will you be okay?" Ben asked.
+
+"Yes, sweetie, I will be okay. Don't be afraid. The ambulance will take me to the doctor. He will help me." Mommy said.
+
+She smiled at them. She recognized their faces. She was glad they were with her. She hoped they would see their snowman again.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys and watch TV. But they do not like to eat healthy food. They only want to eat candy, chips and ice cream.
+
+One day, their mom has to go to her job. She tells them to be good and listen to their babysitter, Anna. She also says they have to eat their lunch, which is a healthy salad and a sandwich. She says she will be back soon and gives them a kiss.
+
+Ben and Lily do not want to eat their lunch. They think it is yucky and boring. They want to eat something else. They see Anna's phone on the table. They have an idea. They pick up the phone and press some buttons. They order a lot of pizza, burgers, fries and soda. They think they are very smart and funny.
+
+Soon, the doorbell rings. It is the delivery man with a big bag of food. He asks for money. Ben and Lily do not have money. They try to give him some toys, but he says no. He says he will call the police. Ben and Lily are scared. They start to cry.
+
+Anna hears the noise and comes to the door. She sees the delivery man and the food. She is very angry. She asks Ben and Lily what they did. They tell her they ordered the food. She says they are very naughty and silly. She says they have to pay for the food and eat their lunch. She also says they have to go to their room and have no TV or toys for the rest of the day. She calls their mom and tells her what happened.
+
+Ben and Lily are very sad and sorry. They wish they had listened to their mom and Anna. They wish they had eaten their healthy lunch. They learn their lesson. They never order food again without permission. The end.
+Tom was a shy boy who liked to play in his room. He had many toys, but his favorite was a drum. He liked to march around his bed and make loud noises with his drum. He felt brave and happy when he played.
+
+One day, he saw a big cobweb on the ceiling. He was scared of the cobweb. He thought it had a spider in it. He did not like spiders. He wanted to run away, but he remembered his drum. He thought maybe he could scare the cobweb away with his drum.
+
+He took his drum and marched to the cobweb. He banged his drum as hard as he could. He shouted, "Go away, cobweb! Go away, spider!" He hoped the cobweb would hear him and leave.
+
+But the cobweb did not move. It was not afraid of the drum. It was not alive. It was just dust and silk. Tom did not know that. He thought the cobweb was very stubborn. He felt angry and sad. He stopped his drum and cried.
+
+Then, he heard a voice. It was his mom. She came to his room and saw him crying. She asked him what was wrong. He pointed to the cobweb and said, "It won't go away. It is scary."
+
+His mom smiled and hugged him. She said, "Don't worry, Tom. It is not scary. It is just a cobweb. It can't hurt you. I will get a broom and sweep it away. Then, you can play with your drum again."
+
+She got a broom and swept the cobweb away. Tom watched and felt relieved. He thanked his mom and gave her a kiss. Then, he picked up his drum and marched around his bed again. He felt brave and happy again. He forgot about the cobweb. He only thought about his drum.
+Ben was a clumsy boy. He liked to play with his toys, but he often broke them or lost them. His mom and dad were not happy with him. They said he had to be more careful and tidy.
+
+One day, Ben went to the zoo with his mom and dad. He saw many animals that he liked. He saw lions, monkeys, elephants, and penguins. He wanted to touch them and play with them, but his mom and dad said no. They said the animals were not toys, and he had to stay with them.
+
+Ben did not listen. He ran away from his mom and dad, and he went to the penguin pool. He saw a staff who was feeding the penguins. He thought the staff was nice, and he wanted to help him. He climbed over the fence, and he grabbed a fish from the bucket. He tried to throw the fish to the penguins, but he was clumsy. He slipped on the wet ground, and he fell into the pool.
+
+The penguins were scared, and they splashed Ben with water. The staff was angry, and he shouted at Ben. He said he had to get out of the pool, and he had to go back to his mom and dad. He said he was not allowed to be there, and he could have hurt the penguins or himself.
+
+Ben was wet, cold, and sad. He realized he had made a mistake, and he wanted to say sorry. He climbed out of the pool, and he followed the staff. He saw his mom and dad, who were looking for him. They were worried, and they hugged him. They said they were glad he was safe, but they were also mad at him. They said he had to learn to obey, and he had to be more careful and tidy.
+
+Ben said he was sorry, and he promised to be better. He said he liked the zoo, but he did not want to gain any more trouble. He said he wanted to go home, and he wanted to play with his toys. He hoped he still had some toys that were not broken or lost.
+Lily and Max were playing with their dog, Spot, in the garden. They loved to throw a ball for him and watch him run and jump. Spot was a good dog, but he had a problem. He had fleas, tiny bugs that made him itch and scratch.
+
+One day, Lily and Max saw their mom talking on the phone. She looked happy and said, "Yes, I would like to order some flea shampoo for my dog. Thank you very much." She hung up and smiled at the children. "I have a surprise for Spot," she said. "He will be very clean and happy soon."
+
+Lily and Max wondered what the surprise was. They hoped it was something fun, like a new toy or a treat. They followed their mom to the bathroom, where she filled the tub with warm water and bubbles. She called Spot and lifted him into the tub. Spot did not like baths. He whimpered and tried to get out.
+
+"Shh, Spot, it's okay," their mom said. "This is a special shampoo that will make the fleas go away. You will feel much better, I promise." She poured some shampoo on Spot's fur and rubbed it gently. Lily and Max helped her by splashing water on Spot and talking to him.
+
+"Good boy, Spot," Lily said. "You are very brave and strong."
+
+"We love you, Spot," Max said. "You are our best friend."
+
+Spot relaxed and let them wash him. He felt the shampoo tickle his skin and the fleas fall off. He felt a warm and fuzzy feeling in his heart. He realized that his mom and the children were very compassionate, kind and caring. He licked their faces and wagged his tail. He was very clean and happy. He had no more fleas. He had a wonderful surprise.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But sometimes they also like to tease each other. Teasing is not nice. It can make someone sad or angry.
+
+One day, Tom finds Lily's sock on the floor. It is pink and has a flower on it. Tom thinks it is funny to put the sock on his hand and make it talk. He runs to Lily and says, "Hello, I am Lily's sock. I am very silly and smelly. I do not like to read or draw. I only like to eat dirt and worms."
+
+Lily hears Tom and feels very mad. She does not like Tom to make fun of her sock or her. She thinks Tom is rude. She says, "Stop it, Tom. That is not nice. That is my sock. Give it back to me. You are not funny. You are mean."
+
+Tom does not listen to Lily. He thinks he is clever and funny. He says, "No, I will not give it back. I like your sock. It is my new friend. We will go and play outside. You can stay here and be boring."
+
+Tom runs away with Lily's sock on his hand. Lily chases him and tries to get her sock back. She shouts, "Tom, come back. That is mine. You are not fair. You are a bad brother."
+
+Tom and Lily run around the house and the garden. They make a lot of noise and mess. They do not see their mom coming home from work. She sees them and feels very tired and cross. She says, "Tom, Lily, what are you doing? Why are you fighting? Why are you wearing Lily's sock on your hand, Tom? That is very silly and dirty. You need to wash your hands and apologize to Lily. And you both need to clean up your mess and share your toys and books. Teasing is not nice. It can hurt someone's feelings. You need to be kind and respectful to each other. You are twins. You should love each other."
+
+Tom and Lily stop running and look at their mom. They feel sorry and ashamed. They say, "Sorry, mom. Sorry, Lily. Sorry, Tom. We were teasing. We were rude. We will not do it again. We will be nice. We will wash our hands and clean up. We will share our toys and books. We love each other."
+
+Their mom smiles and hugs them. She says, "That is good. I am glad you are sorry and you will be nice. I love you both very much. Now, let's go inside and have some cookies and milk. And maybe you can read a story or draw a picture together. That would be fun and nice."
+
+Tom and Lily nod and smile. They give back Lily's sock and hold hands. They go inside with their mom and have some cookies and milk. They read a story and draw a picture together. They do not tease each other anymore. They are happy and nice. The end.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and serve food to their toys. Ben put a plate of cookies on the table and said, "Here you go, Mr. Bear. These are for you. They are very yummy."
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She had a cup of juice for Mrs. Doll. She said, "And this is for you, Mrs. Doll. It is very sweet. You will like it."
+
+They looked at the clock on the wall. It was almost time for lunch. They heard their mom call from the living room. "Ben, Lily, come here. I have something to show you."
+
+They ran to the living room. They saw their mom holding a big box. It had a bow on it. They wondered what was inside. They asked, "What is it, mom? Is it a present?"
+
+Their mom nodded and smiled. She said, "Yes, it is a present. It is from your aunt and uncle. They sent it from far away. They said it is something very special. Do you want to open it?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and clapped. They were very excited. They tore off the bow and the paper. They opened the box. They saw something unknown. It was furry and soft. It had ears and a tail. It made a noise. It was a puppy!
+
+Ben and Lily gasped and squealed. They hugged the puppy. They said, "Thank you, mom. Thank you, aunt and uncle. We love it. It is the best present ever."
+
+Their mom smiled and said, "You're welcome, Ben and Lily. I'm glad you like it. It is a very cute puppy. What will you name it?"
+
+Ben and Lily thought for a moment. They looked at the puppy. They said, "We will name it Cookie. Because it is brown and sweet. And we like cookies."
+
+Their mom laughed and said, "That is a good name. Cookie is a lucky puppy. He has a nice home and two loving friends. Now, let's go to the kitchen and serve him some food. He must be hungry."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and smiled. They took Cookie to the kitchen. They gave him some water and some kibble. They petted him and played with him. They were very happy. They had a new friend.
+Once upon a time, there was a little bird named Tweet. Tweet loved to eat eggs. One day, Tweet found a big, tasty egg. Tweet was so happy and ate the egg. 
+
+But then, the egg's mommy came looking for her baby. She was very sad when she saw that her baby was gone. She looked and looked for her baby, but she could not find her.
+
+Tweet felt very bad. She knew she had made a mistake by eating the baby egg. Tweet wanted to say sorry to the mommy egg, but she didn't know how. 
+
+Finally, Tweet decided to say thank you to the mommy egg for giving her such a tasty meal. But even though Tweet said thank you, she still felt very sad. She knew she had hurt the mommy egg's feelings.
+Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to jog in the park with his mommy. One day, as they were jogging, they saw a bulb on the ground. Timmy picked it up and showed it to his mommy. "Look, mommy! A bulb!" he said.
+
+His mommy smiled and said, "That's right, Timmy. It's a bulb. It's used to make light." Timmy thought that was crazy! He had never seen a bulb before. 
+
+As they continued jogging, they saw a man who looked sad. Timmy's mommy asked him if he was okay. The man said he had lost his wallet and couldn't find it anywhere. Timmy had an idea. "Let's help him find it, mommy!" he said. They searched and searched and finally found the wallet. The man was so grateful and thanked them. 
+
+Timmy's mommy explained to him that it's important to help others when they need it. Timmy understood and felt happy that they could help. From that day on, he made sure to always look for ways to help others.
+Once upon a time, there was a little birdie named Tweety. Tweety loved to fly high in the sky and sing songs. One day, Tweety saw a big yellow balloon floating in the sky. Tweety wanted to play with the balloon, so she flew up to it. But when she got close, the balloon popped and scared Tweety. 
+
+Tweety flew away and saw a tree with a branch hanging low. She decided to rest on the branch and sing a song to calm down. But then, a big gust of wind came and the branch started to shake. Tweety got scared again and didn't know what to do.
