He had shrunk. + +"Ben!" Lily shouted. She ran to the tree and tried to reach him. But he was too high. She could not get him. "How did you get there? How did you shrink?" + +"I don't know," Ben said. "The boy threw me in the air and I landed here. I think he had a magic wand. He said he wanted a small bear. He was mean." + +Lily felt sorry for Ben. She wanted to help him. She looked for something to climb the tree. She saw a rope and a bucket. She had an idea. She tied the rope to the bucket and threw it over the branch. She pulled the rope and made the bucket go up. She told Ben to get in the bucket. + +"Be careful, Ben," she said. "I'll get you down." + +Ben did as she said. He got in the bucket and held on. Lily pulled the rope and made the bucket go down. She caught the bucket and took Ben out. She hugged him and kissed him.

Maybe it is friendly," Ben says. + +They go closer to the pond. The otter sees them and comes to the edge. It makes a funny noise. + +"Hello, otter!" Mia says. She reaches out her hand to touch it. + +But the otter is not friendly. It is angry and scared. It bites Mia's hand hard. Mia screams and cries. Blood comes out of her hand. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Mia says. "It hurts!" + +"Help, help!" Ben says. He runs to get help. + +The otter swims away. It is intelligent. It knows that humans are dangerous. It does not want to play with them.

She took the crocodile and made it snap at Ben's car. "Roar! I'm a hungry crocodile! I want to eat your car!" + +Ben laughed. He drove his car away from the crocodile. "No, you can't eat my car! It's too fast for you!" + +They played with the crocodile and the car for a long time. They made them go around the garden, over the grass, under the table, and into the mud.

He had a box with a picture of a real train on it. He said, "This is a special train that can make steam and sign. Do you want to try it?" Tim and Kim nodded and clapped their hands. They were very excited. + +Dad opened the box and took out the train. It was shiny and red, with a funnel and a whistle. He put some water and oil in it, and turned on a switch. The train started to move on the floor, and puffed out white steam from the funnel. It also made a loud sign, like "toot-toot". Tim and Kim followed the train, and laughed and cheered. + +They wanted to play with the train on their toy train set, so they asked dad to help them. Dad said, "Okay, but be careful. The train is hot and fast. Don't touch it or put it near anything that can burn." He lifted the train and put it on the tracks. He said, "Now, you can control the speed and the sign with this remote. Have fun, but remember what I said." + +Tim and Kim took turns to use the remote. They made the train go faster and slower, and sign louder and softer. They had a lot of fun, but they also forgot what dad said. They put the train too close to a bridge made of paper, and the steam set it on fire. They also put the train too fast on a curve, and the train flew off the tracks and crashed into a wall. The train broke into pieces, and the water and oil spilled on the floor. + +Tim and Kim were scared and sad. They cried and said, "We're sorry, dad. We broke the train. We didn't listen to you." Dad came and saw the mess. He was angry and disappointed, but he also hugged them and said, "It's okay, Tim and Kim. I'm glad you're not hurt. But you have to learn to be careful and follow the rules. The train was a gift, but it was also a lesson. Maybe next time, you can play with a safer and simpler train." Tim and Kim nodded and said, "Yes, dad. We love you." They helped dad clean up the room, and hoped to get another chance to play with a train. +Tom and Lily were playing with their crayons and paper. They liked to draw animals and flowers and cars. Tom had a special crayon that was white. He said it was magic. + +"Look, Lily, I can draw with this crayon and you can't see anything. But if I use this spray, it will reveal my picture!" Tom said. + +He sprayed some water on his paper and a blue cat appeared. Lily was amazed. + +"Wow, Tom, that's so cool! How do you do that?" she asked. + +Tom smiled and said, "It's a secret. This crayon has ink that only shows when it's wet. Do you want to try?" + +Lily nodded and took the white crayon. She drew a pink flower on her paper. Then she sprayed some water on it. But instead of a flower, she saw a big smelly skunk. + +"Yuck, Tom, what is this? This is not a flower, this is a stinky animal!" Lily said. + +Tom laughed and said, "I tricked you, Lily. This is not a magic crayon, this is a prank crayon. It has ink that changes color when it's wet. And it smells bad too. It's funny, right?" + +Lily was not happy. She felt angry and sad. She threw the crayon and the spray at Tom and said, "No, it's not funny, it's mean. You are a bad brother. I don't want to play with you anymore." + +She ran away to her room and slammed the door. Tom felt sorry. He realized he had hurt Lily's feelings. He picked up the crayon and the spray and followed her. He knocked on the door and said, "Lily, I'm sorry. I was just joking. I didn't mean to make you cry. Please forgive me. I have a real magic crayon for you. It's purple and it makes rainbow pictures. Do you want to see?" + +Lily opened the door and looked at Tom. She saw he had a sad face and a purple crayon in his hand. She wondered if he was telling the truth or lying again. She decided to give him a chance. She said, "OK, Tom, show me your magic crayon. But don't trick me again. Or I will tell Mom." + +Tom smiled and said, "I promise, Lily, this is a real magic crayon. Come on, let's go back to our paper and draw. And I will tell you a sorry story too." + +They went back to their paper and drew with the purple crayon. It made rainbow pictures that sparkled in the light. They liked it very much. Tom told Lily a sorry story about a boy who learned to be nice to his sister. Lily forgave Tom and hugged him. They played happily together. They agreed that magic crayons were fun, but prank crayons were not. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, they found a big box under a tree. It was dull and brown, but it had a shiny lock on it. + +"Wow, what is in there?" Lily asked. + +"I don't know, let's open it!" Ben said. + +They tried to pull the lock, but it was too hard. They looked around for something to break it. Lily saw a big stick on the ground. She picked it up and pointed it at the lock. + +"Stand back, I will hit it!" she said. + +"OK, but be careful!" Ben said. + +Lily swung the stick with all her might. She hit the lock, but it did not break. Instead, the stick bounced back and hit her on the head. She fell down and cried. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" she sobbed. + +Ben ran to her and hugged her. He felt sorry for her. + +"I'm sorry, Lily, are you OK?" he asked. + +"It hurts, Ben, it hurts!" she said. + +Ben looked at the box. He had an idea. He took off his scarf and wrapped it around Lily's head. + +"Here, this will make you feel better," he said. + +He helped her stand up and smiled at her. + +"Thank you, Ben, you are very kind," she said. + +They hugged again and walked away from the box. They did not notice that the lock had a tiny crack in it. They did not hear the faint click as it opened. They did not see the bright light that came out of the box. They did not know that they had just released a magic genie. They only knew that they had each other. + +They made a promise to always be friends. And they kept it. +Sara and Ben like to play pretend. They act like they are pirates and look for treasure. They have a big box with shiny things inside. They call it their loot. + +One day, they find a new thing in the box. It is round and brown and has a face on it. Sara says it is a copper coin. Ben says it is a button. They do not know what it is for. + +They decide to use it in their game. They say it is a magic coin that can make wishes come true. They take turns holding it and saying what they want. Sara wishes for a pony. Ben wishes for a rocket. They laugh and have fun. + +But then, they hear a loud noise outside. They run to the window and see a big truck. It is coming to their house. It has a sign that says "Recycling". Sara and Ben are scared. They think the truck will take their loot. + +They grab their box and run to the backyard. They hide it under a bush. They hope the truck will not find it. They hug each other and wait. + +The truck stops at their house. A man gets out. He has a big bag. He looks around. He sees the copper coin on the ground. He picks it up and puts it in his bag. He thinks it is a harmless thing. He does not know it is Sara and Ben's magic coin. He does not know they wished for a pony and a rocket. + +He gets back in the truck and drives away. Sara and Ben come out of their hiding place. They look for their coin. They do not see it. They are sad. They think their wishes will not come true. + +But then, they hear another noise. They look up and see a pony and a rocket in the sky. They are flying towards them. They are happy. They think their coin is still magic. They do not know it is a coincidence. They do not know the pony and the rocket are from the circus and the space center. They do not know they are in for a big surprise. +Tom and Jen are best friends. They like to play in the park. They have a secret spot under a big tree. They pretend it is their fort. + +One day, they see a man with a mask. He is not wearing the mask on his face. He is holding it in his hand. He looks mean and scary. He walks near their fort. + +Tom and Jen are afraid. They hide under the tree. Tom warns Jen. He says, "Do not make a sound. He might find us." + +The man with the mask stops by their fort. He sees their toys and books. He smiles. He thinks he can take them. He puts on his mask. He bends down to grab them. + +But Tom and Jen are loyal. They do not let him take their things. They jump out of their hiding place. They yell, "Stop! Go away! These are ours!" + +The man with the mask is surprised. He drops their things. He runs away. He is scared of their loud voices. + +Tom and Jen are happy. They hug each other. They say, "We did it! We scared him away!" + +They pick up their things. They go back to their fort. They are safe and brave. They are best friends. +Anna liked to work with her toys. She had many toys, but her favorite was a big red truck. She liked to make the truck go fast and loud. She liked to pretend she was a driver and had to deliver things. + +One day, Anna wanted to play with her truck, but she could not find it. She looked in her room, in the living room, in the kitchen, but the truck was not there. She felt sad and angry. Who took her truck? + +She asked her mom, but her mom did not know. She asked her dad, but her dad did not know. She asked her brother, but her brother said he did not take it. He said he was dependable and did not lie. Anna did not believe him. She thought he was sneaky and mean. + +She went to his room and opened the door. She saw her truck on his bed. He was not there. He had left to play with his friends. Anna was happy to see her truck, but also mad at her brother. She took her truck and ran to her room. She locked the door and played with her truck. She did not want to share it with her brother. She thought he was not dependable and did not deserve it. +Lily and Ben were playing in the backyard. They liked to run and jump and make noise. They saw Mom hanging laundry on the line. The laundry was wet and clean and smelled good. + +"Can we help, Mom?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, you can help me zip the bags," Mom said. She gave them each a big bag with a zipper. "Put the clothespins in the bags and zip them up. Then we can take them inside." + +Lily and Ben took some clothespins from the basket and put them in the bags. They tried to zip the bags, but it was hard. The zippers were stuck and stiff. + +"Mom, I can't zip it!" Ben said. + +"Me neither!" Lily said. + +Mom came over and helped them. She showed them how to pull the zipper gently and make it move. She said, "Sometimes zippers need a little help. They get dead if they don't move for a long time. But if you use them often, they stay alive and work well." + +Lily and Ben nodded. They understood. They liked to move and play and stay alive. They didn't want to be dead like the zippers. They finished zipping the bags and followed Mom inside. They were happy to help and learn. +Anna was very scared. She had to go to the doctor for an exam. She did not like the doctor. He had a big white coat and a cold stethoscope. He always asked her to open her mouth and say "ahh". He also touched her with a needle. It hurt a lot. + +Anna's mom tried to calm her down. She said, "Don't worry, honey. The doctor is nice. He only wants to help you. The exam is not dangerous. It is good for you. The needle is a little poke. It will make you strong and healthy." + +Anna did not believe her mom. She cried and hid behind her teddy bear. She said, "No, no, no. I don't want to go. I don't want the exam. I don't want the needle. I don't want the doctor to touch me." + +Anna's mom hugged her and kissed her. She said, "I know, honey. I know. But you have to be brave. The exam will be over soon. And then we can go home and have ice cream. How does that sound?" + +Anna thought for a moment. She liked ice cream. She liked chocolate and vanilla and strawberry. She said, "OK, mom. OK. I will go. But only if you hold my hand. And only if I can have ice cream. And only if the doctor is nice." + +Anna's mom smiled and said, "Of course, honey. Of course. I will hold your hand. And you can have ice cream. And the doctor is nice. He will be gentle and kind. He will touch you with care. He will not hurt you. He will make you feel better." + +Anna nodded and took her mom's hand. She still felt scared. But she also felt loved. She said, "OK, mom. OK. Let's go." +Lily and Ben like to play with their toy scales. They weigh different things and see which one is heavier. One day, they find a big bag of waste in the garage. It has old cans, bottles, papers and clothes. They wonder how much it weighs. + +They drag the bag to their scales and try to lift it. It is very heavy. They cannot lift it. They try to push it. It is very hard. They cannot push it. They try to roll it. It is very big. They cannot roll it. They give up and sit on the floor. + +They look at the bag of waste and feel sad. They think it is not good to have so much waste. They think it is bad for the earth and the animals. They wish they could do something to help. + +They hear their mom call them for lunch. They run to the kitchen and wash their hands. They see a big bowl of salad on the table. It has lettuce, tomatoes, carrots and cheese. It looks yummy. They ask their mom where the salad came from. + +Their mom tells them that the salad came from their garden. She says that they grow their own vegetables and fruits. She says that they compost their food scraps and use them as fertilizer. She says that they recycle their cans, bottles, papers and clothes. She says that they try to reduce their waste and be kind to the earth and the animals. + +Lily and Ben smile and hug their mom. They think she is very smart and good. They eat their salad and enjoy it. They feel happy and peaceful. They think that their garden is better than the bag of waste. They think that their scales are better than the bag of waste. They think that their mom is better than the bag of waste. They think that they are better than the bag of waste. +Lily and Ben like to play in the garden. They see many flowers and bugs. Lily likes to smell the flowers. Ben likes to catch the bugs. + +One day, Ben finds a big beetle. It is black and shiny. It has six legs and two wings. Ben is happy. He shows Lily the beetle. + +Lily does not like the beetle. She thinks it is ugly and scary. She says, "Yuck! Go away, beetle!" She tries to push the beetle off Ben's hand. + +But the beetle does not want to go away. It likes Ben's hand. It is warm and soft. The beetle holds on tight. It makes a loud noise. It says, "Buzz! Buzz!" + +Lily is angry. She grabs the beetle from Ben's hand. She throws it far away. She says, "Bye-bye, beetle!" + +But the beetle does not say bye-bye. It flies back to Ben. It lands on his head. It says, "Buzz! Buzz!" again. + +Ben laughs. He says, "Hello, beetle! You are my friend. You are busy and brave. I like you." + +Lily is surprised. She says, "You like the beetle? Why?" + +Ben says, "Because it is fun and funny. It makes me happy. Do you want to play with us?" + +Lily thinks for a moment. She says, "OK. I will try. Maybe the beetle is not so bad. Maybe it is nice." + +They all play together in the garden. They have a good time. The beetle is busy and brave. Lily and Ben are kind and curious. They are friends. +Lily was sick. She had a fever and a sore throat. She did not want to eat or play. She only wanted to sleep and cuddle with her teddy bear. + +Her mom took her to the doctor. The doctor was nice and gentle. He looked at Lily's throat and ears. He said, "Lily, you have an infection. You need some medicine to get better. But first, I need to give you a needle. It will hurt a little, but it will help you a lot." + +Lily was scared of the needle. She did not like pain. She cried and said, "No, no, no! I don't want a needle! Please, mom, don't let him do it!" + +Her mom hugged her and said, "I know, sweetie, I know. But the needle is very important. It will make you strong and healthy again. It will be over soon. I will be right here with you. You are brave and you can do it." + +The doctor gave Lily the needle. It was quick and sharp. Lily felt a sting in her arm. She suffered for a few seconds. Then it was done. The doctor put a band-aid on her arm and said, "Good job, Lily! You did it! You were very successful! Now you can have a sticker and a lollipop. And you can go home and rest with your teddy bear. You will feel better soon." + +Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, doctor. Thank you, mom. I love you. Can we go home now?" + +Her mom said, "Yes, we can. You are a good girl. I love you too." They left the doctor's office. Lily held her teddy bear, her sticker and her lollipop. She felt proud and happy. She did not suffer anymore. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with toys, read books, and paint pictures. One day, they found a big box of paints in the closet. They were very happy and excited. + +"Let's paint something fancy!" Lily said. + +"OK, what do you want to paint?" Ben asked. + +"I want to paint a blue princess. She has a blue dress, a blue crown, and a blue wand. She is very pretty and fancy," Lily said. + +"I want to paint a blue dragon. He has blue scales, blue wings, and blue fire. He is very strong and fancy," Ben said. + +They took out some paper and brushes and started to paint. They used a lot of blue paint. They made their pictures very fancy. They had a lot of fun. + +When they finished, they showed each other their paintings. They were very proud of their work. + +"Wow, your princess is very fancy, Lily. I like her blue dress," Ben said. + +"Thank you, Ben. Your dragon is very fancy, too. I like his blue fire," Lily said. + +They smiled and hugged. They were very happy. They hung their paintings on the wall. They looked very fancy. They decided to paint more pictures tomorrow. +Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with blocks and cars. One day, they go to the park with their moms. There are many other kids in the park. Some of them have bikes and balls. + +Tom and Mia see a big network of ropes and swings. It looks fun. They want to try it. They ask their moms if they can go. Their moms say yes, but be careful. + +Tom and Mia run to the network. They climb and swing and jump. They are happy. They smile and laugh. They make new friends. + +But then, Tom slips and falls. He hurts his knee. It bleeds. He cries. Mia runs to him. She hugs him. She says, "It's okay, Tom. I'm here. You are brave." + +Mia helps Tom to get up. She takes him to their moms.

They have a good day. +Lena and Sam were twins who liked to play outside. They ran, jumped, and laughed in the park with their friends. They saw many things: birds, flowers, swings, and slides. They also saw a vendor who sold ice cream. The vendor had a big cart with many colors and flavors. + +"Can we have ice cream, please?" Lena asked their mom, who was sitting on a bench. + +"OK, but only one each, and then we have to go home and bathe," their mom said. + +Lena and Sam ran to the vendor and chose their ice cream. Lena picked strawberry, and Sam picked chocolate. They thanked the vendor and licked their ice cream happily. + +But soon, their ice cream started to melt and drip. Lena and Sam got sticky and messy. Their faces, hands, and clothes were covered with ice cream. Their mom saw them and shook her head. + +"Look at you two! You are so dirty! Come on, let's go home and bathe. You need to wash off all that ice cream," their mom said. + +Lena and Sam nodded and followed their mom. They said goodbye to their friends and the vendor.

One day, Sara got a new doll from her mom. It was pink and had long hair and a pretty dress. Ben was envious. He wanted a doll like that too. + +"Can I play with your doll?" Ben asked Sara. + +"Okay, but be careful. She is very special to me," Sara said. She gave her doll to Ben and took one of his cars. + +Ben held the doll and looked at her. He wanted to touch her hair and dress. But he was too rough. He pulled the hair and tore the dress. The doll looked sad and broken. + +Sara saw what Ben did and started to cry. "You broke my doll! You are a bad friend!" she shouted. + +"I'm sorry, Sara. I didn't mean to. Please don't be mad at me," Ben said. He felt sorry and scared. + +"Give me back my doll. And give me your car too. It's mine now," Sara said. She took the doll and the car from Ben and ran away. + +Ben was left alone in the park. He had no doll and no car. He had no friend.

He wished he could say sorry to Sara and be her friend again. +Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play with water. One day, they had a big idea. They wanted to fill the bathroom with water and make a pool. They took the hose from the garden and put it in the bathtub. They turned on the water and ran away. + +They did not know that the water would not stop. It filled the bathtub and spilled over. It filled the floor and the sink and the toilet. It filled the whole bathroom and went under the door. It made a big mess in the house. + +Mom and Dad came home and saw the water. They were very angry and bitter. They shouted at Lily and Tom. "What have you done? You have ruined the bathroom and the house! You are very naughty and foolish!" + +Lily and Tom felt sorry and scared. They cried and said, "We are sorry, Mom and Dad. We just wanted to have fun. We did not think about the water." + +Mom and Dad said, "You should have thought before you acted. You should have asked us first. You should have respected our things. You should have been careful and responsible. Now you have to help us clean up and pay for the damage." + +Lily and Tom learned a hard lesson.

They learned that filling the bathroom with water was a bad idea. +Lily was playing with her dolls in her room. She liked to make them talk and dress them up. She had a big box of clothes and shoes for them. She wanted to find a pink hat for her doll Anna. She saw it on the top of the shelf. She tried to reach it with her hand, but it was too high. She got a chair and climbed on it. She reached again, but she still could not touch the hat. + +She heard a noise outside her door. It was her brother Tom. He was running and shouting. He liked to make a lot of noise. He did not see Lily on the chair. He bumped into it and made it fall. Lily fell too. She hit the floor and hurt her arm. She cried out loud. The hat flew off the shelf and landed on her head. + +Mom heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw Lily on the floor with the hat and Tom standing by the chair. She was angry and scared. She had a harsh voice. She said to Tom, "What did you do? You could have hurt your sister! You need to be careful and quiet!" She said to Lily, "Are you okay, sweetie? Let me see your arm. I'm sorry you fell. I'm glad you have your hat." She hugged Lily and kissed her arm. She helped her get up and put the chair back. She said to both of them, "Now, let's go to the kitchen and have some cookies. And no more noise, please." +Ben liked hockey very much. He had a new hockey stick and a new hockey puck. He wanted to play hockey with his dad in the yard. He put on his hat and his coat and ran outside. + +"Hi, dad!" Ben said. "Can we play hockey now?" + +"Sure, Ben," dad said. "But first, let me rest for a bit. I just came back from work and I'm very tired." + +"Okay, dad," Ben said. "But hurry up, please. I want to show you my new hockey stick and puck." + +Ben waited for his dad to rest on the couch. He looked at his new hockey stick and puck. He was very proud of them. He wanted to score a goal with them. He wondered how fast he could hit the puck with his stick. + +He decided to try it out. He went to the yard and put the puck on the ground. He lifted his stick and swung it hard. He heard a loud crack. He looked at his stick. It was broken in half. + +"Oh no!" Ben cried. "My new hockey stick! It's broken!" + +He ran back to the house with his broken stick and his puck. He wanted to tell his dad what happened. He hoped his dad would not be mad at him. He hoped his dad would fix his stick or buy him a new one. + +He opened the door and saw his dad still resting on the couch. He also saw something else. On the table, there was a big box with a bow on it. It had a tag that said: "To Ben, from dad. Happy birthday!" + +Ben's eyes widened. He dropped his broken stick and his puck.

"Let's go to the yard and have some fun." + +Ben and dad went to the yard and played hockey. Ben scored many goals with his new hockey stick and puck. He was very happy.

She also liked to put things in her pocket. She had a red pocket on her dress, and she filled it with shiny stones, colorful buttons, and soft feathers. + +One day, Sara went to the park with her mom. She saw a big slide, a swing, and a sandbox. She wanted to play with everything. She ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. She put her hand in her pocket and felt something move. She screamed and jumped off the slide. + +"What's wrong, Sara?" her mom asked, running to her. + +"There's something scary in my pocket!" Sara cried, pointing at her dress. + +Her mom looked in her pocket and pulled out a small green frog. It had jumped in when Sara was picking up stones. It croaked and blinked its eyes. + +"It's not scary, Sara. It's a frog. It's a friendly animal. It won't hurt you," her mom said, holding the frog gently. + +Sara looked at the frog and saw that it was not scary. It was cute and funny. She smiled and touched its wet skin. + +"Can I keep it, mom?" she asked. + +"No, Sara. The frog belongs in the pond, not in your pocket. Let's take it back and find it a nice home," her mom said. + +Sara nodded and followed her mom to the pond. She said goodbye to the frog and let it go. It jumped into the water and swam away. + +Sara felt happy. She had made a new friend. She decided to organize her pocket and take out the stones, buttons, and feathers. She gave them to the other kids in the park. They thanked her and played with her. Sara had a lot of fun. She learned that organizing was good, but sharing was better. +Ben and Lily wanted to make a cake for Mom. They had a big bowl, some eggs, some flour, some sugar, and some butter. They also had a spoon and a pan. + +"First, we need to mix the eggs and the sugar," Ben said. He cracked two eggs and put them in the bowl. He added some sugar and stirred with the spoon. + +"Can I help?" Lily asked. She was younger than Ben and wanted to do everything he did. + +"Sure, you can mix the flour and the butter," Ben said. He gave her another bowl and a knife. She cut some butter and put it in the bowl. She added some flour and tried to mix it with the knife. It was hard and sticky. + +"This is not working," Lily said. She looked at Ben's bowl. His mix was thin and smooth. "Why is your mix different?" + +"Because I used a spoon, not a knife," Ben said. "And because eggs and sugar are different from flour and butter. Here, let me help you." He took the knife and the bowl from Lily and used his hands to make the flour and butter into a ball. "Now we have to put this on top of my mix in the pan." + +He poured his mix into the pan and flattened it with the spoon. Then he broke the ball into small pieces and sprinkled them over the mix. "There, we made a cake!" he said. + +"How long do we have to wait?" Lily asked. + +"Not long, just a minute," Ben said. He put the pan in the oven and turned it on. "We have to be careful, the oven is hot." + +They waited and watched the cake rise and turn brown. It smelled good. They took it out of the oven and let it cool. Then they cut a big slice and put it on a plate. + +"Mom, we made you a cake!" they shouted as they ran to her. + +Mom was surprised and happy. She hugged them and thanked them. She tasted the cake and said it was delicious. + +"You are very good bakers," she said.

Lily said. + +They all laughed and ate the cake together. It was the best cake ever. +Tim and Mia are friends. They like to play with balls. They have many balls of different colors and sizes. They also have a big hill near their house. They like to roll the balls down the hill and see how far they go. + +One day, Tim has a new ball. It is red and shiny and has a star on it. He shows it to Mia and says, "Look at my new ball! It is original. No one else has a ball like this." + +Mia likes the ball too. She says, "Can I roll it down the hill? Please, Tim, can I try?" + +Tim thinks for a moment. He likes his new ball very much. He does not want to lose it or break it. But he also likes Mia and wants to share with her. He says, "Okay, Mia, you can roll it once. But be careful. Do not let it go too far or too fast." + +Mia is happy. She takes the ball and runs to the top of the hill. She holds the ball in her hands and says, "Thank you, Tim. I will be careful." She looks at the ball and smiles. It is very pretty and original. + +She throws the ball down the hill. The ball rolls and rolls and rolls. It goes faster and faster and faster. It bounces and spins and shines. Mia and Tim watch the ball with wide eyes. They say, "Wow! Look at the ball! It is amazing!" + +The ball rolls and rolls and rolls. It goes past the trees and the flowers and the rocks. It goes past the fence and the road and the cars. It goes past the park and the shop and the school. It goes so far that Mia and Tim cannot see it anymore. + +They say, "Oh no! Where is the ball? It is gone! We have to find it!" + +They run after the ball. They look everywhere. They ask everyone. But no one has seen the ball. The ball is too original and too fast. + +They are sad and tired. They do not know what to do. They sit on a bench and cry. + +A man walks by. He sees them crying. He says, "What is wrong, children? Why are you crying?" + +They say, "We lost our ball. It was red and shiny and had a star on it. It was original. No one else had a ball like this. We rolled it down the hill and it went too far and too fast. We cannot find it." + +The man says, "Oh, I see. That is a pity. But do not cry. Maybe I can help you. I have something in my pocket that might cheer you up." + +He reaches into his pocket and pulls out something. It is the ball. The red and shiny and original ball with a star on it. + +He says, "Is this your ball? I found it near the bus stop. It was rolling and rolling and rolling. It almost hit me. I caught it and put it in my pocket. I was going to keep it. It is a very nice ball. But I see that it belongs to you. Here, you can have it back." + +Mia and Tim are surprised and happy. They say, "Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are very kind and generous. You found our ball. You gave it back to us. You are our hero." + +They take the ball and hug it. They hug the man too. They say, "We are sorry we lost the ball. We will be more careful next time. We will not roll it too far or too fast. We will share it with you if you want to play with us." + +The man says, "You are welcome, children. I am glad you are happy. I do not need the ball. I have my own ball. It is blue and soft and has a smiley face on it. It is original too. No one else has a ball like this. Do you want to see it?" + +He reaches into his other pocket and pulls out his ball. He shows it to Mia and Tim. They say, "Wow! Your ball is very pretty and original too. We like it. Can we see it closer?" + +The man says, "Sure, you can see it closer. You can touch it and hold it and roll it if you want. But be careful. Do not let it go too far or too fast. It might get lost too." + +They say, "Okay, we will be careful. We will not let it go too far or too fast. We will give it back to you when we are done." + +They take the ball and play with it. They roll it and catch it and laugh. The man watches them and smiles. He says, "You are good children. You are good friends. You have good balls. You have fun +Tom and Lily are brother and sister. They like to play with their toys, but sometimes they fight. One day, they both want to play with the same car. They pull and push and shout. + +"Give me the car! It is mine!" Tom says. + +"No, it is mine! I saw it first!" Lily says. + +Mom hears the noise and comes to see what is wrong. She sees Tom and Lily fighting over the car. She is not happy. + +"Stop fighting, both of you!" Mom says. "Fighting is not nice. You have to share and take turns. Why don't you relax and play something else?" + +Tom and Lily look at Mom. They know she is right. They feel sorry for fighting. They let go of the car and say sorry to each other. + +"Sorry, Tom. You can play with the car first." Lily says. + +"Sorry, Lily. You can play with it next." Tom says. + +Mom smiles and hugs them. She is proud of them. + +"Good job, Tom and Lily. You are very kind and smart. Sharing is easy and fun. Now, why don't you relax and play something else?" Mom says. + +Tom and Lily nod and smile. They relax and play something else. They find a ball and a doll and have fun together. They do not fight anymore. They are happy. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to look for acorns under the big trees. They wanted to make a necklace with the acorns. + +"Look, I found a large acorn!" Lily said, holding up a brown nut. "It is bigger than my hand!" + +"Wow, that is a large acorn!" Ben said. "Can I see it?" + +Lily gave the acorn to Ben. He looked at it and smiled. He liked the acorn too. + +"Can I have it?" Ben asked. "I want to keep it for myself." + +"No, you can't have it!" Lily said. "I found it first! It is mine!" + +"But I like it more!" Ben said. "You have many acorns. I only have a few. Please, let me have it!" + +Lily and Ben started to argue. They both wanted the large acorn. They pulled and tugged at the acorn. They did not want to share. + +"Stop it, you two!" a voice said. It was their mom. She had been watching them from a bench. She came over to them and took the acorn from their hands. + +"What are you doing?" she asked. "Why are you fighting over an acorn?" + +Lily and Ben looked at their mom. They felt ashamed. They knew they had been bad. + +"We both wanted the large acorn," Lily said. + +"We could not agree who should have it," Ben said. + +Mom shook her head. She was not happy. + +"An acorn is not worth fighting over," she said. "You should learn to share and be kind to each other. You are brother and sister. You should love each other." + +Lily and Ben nodded. They knew their mom was right. + +"Can we say sorry to each other?" Lily asked. + +"Yes, we can," Ben said. + +They hugged each other and said sorry. They felt better. + +Mom smiled. She was glad they made up. + +"Here, you can have the large acorn," she said. "But you have to share it. You can take turns holding it, or you can cut it in half and make two necklaces. What do you think?" + +Lily and Ben thought for a moment. They liked both ideas. + +"Can we cut it in half and make two necklaces?" Lily asked. + +"Yes, we can," Ben said. + +They thanked their mom and took the acorn. They went to find a knife and some string. They were happy to share the large acorn. They learned a lesson. +Tom and Mia are playing with their toys in the living room. Tom has a big truck and Mia has a doll. They are having fun until Tom sees a picture on the wall. It is a picture of their family in a frame. + +"Look, Mia, look!" Tom says. "That is us in the frame!" + +He runs to the wall and tries to grab the frame. But it is too high for him. He jumps and jumps, but he cannot reach it. + +"Stop, Tom, stop!" Mia says. "You will make the frame fall and break!" + +She runs after him and tries to pull him away. But Tom is too strong for her. He shakes and shakes, and the frame starts to move. + +"Tom, you are crazy!" Mia says. "You will get in trouble!" + +But Tom does not listen. He shakes and shakes, and the frame falls off the wall. It makes a loud noise and breaks into pieces. Tom and Mia are scared. They hear their mom coming. + +"What is going on here?" their mom says. She sees the broken frame and the toys on the floor. She is angry. + +"Tom, Mia, what did you do?" she says. "You broke the frame! That was a gift from grandma!" + +Tom and Mia are sorry. They did not mean to break the frame. They hug their mom and say they are sorry. + +"It's okay, my loves," their mom says. "I know you did not mean it. But you have to be careful. You cannot shake the frame. It is not a toy. It is a picture of our family. We love our family, right?" + +Tom and Mia nod. They love their family. They help their mom clean up the mess. They promise to not shake the frame again. They go back to playing with their toys. They are happy. +Tom and Lily were pirates. They liked to play with their toy swords and hats and look for gold. One day, they found a big box in the park. They opened it and saw many shiny things inside. + +"Wow, look at all the gold!" Tom said. "We are rich!" + +Lily nodded. "Let's take it to our ship and hide it." + +They picked up the box and ran to their wagon. They pretended it was their ship and put the box under a blanket. They were very happy. + +But then, they saw another pirate. He was bigger and meaner than them. He had a real sword and a scary eye patch. He saw their wagon and came closer. + +"Ahoy, mateys!" he said. "What do you have there?" + +Tom and Lily were scared. They did not want to lose their gold. They tried to act brave. + +"Nothing, go away!" Tom said. + +"Or what?" the pirate said. "Or I will make you walk the plank!" + +He grabbed the blanket and pulled it off. He saw the box and smiled. + +"Ha, ha, ha! I found your treasure!" he said. "Give it to me or I will cut you!" + +Tom and Lily did not know what to do. They looked at each other and then at the pirate. They decided to surrender. + +"OK, OK, you can have it," Lily said. "Please don't hurt us." + +The pirate laughed and took the box. He opened it and looked inside. But he did not see any gold. He only saw rocks and cans and paper. The box was empty. + +"What? This is not gold! This is junk!" he said. "You tricked me!" + +Tom and Lily smiled. They had tricked the pirate. They had put the real gold in another box and hid it under their wagon. They had given him the empty box. + +"Sorry, pirate, we are smarter than you!" Tom said. + +They jumped on their wagon and drove away. They left the pirate behind, angry and confused. + +They went to their home and showed their mom and dad their gold. They were very proud. They had a lot of fun being pirates. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park near their houses. One day, they see a big dog on the street. The dog is barking and running fast. Tom and Lily are frightened. They do not like the dog. + +"Let's go home!" Lily says to Tom. "The dog is scary!" + +But Tom does not want to go home. He wants to play more. He says to Lily, "The dog is not scary. He is just playing. Come on, let's go to the swings!" + +Tom runs to the swings. Lily follows him, but she is still frightened. She looks at the dog. The dog sees them and runs to them. He wants to play, too. + +"Help!" Lily screams. "The dog is coming!" + +Tom hears Lily. He turns around and sees the dog. He is frightened, too. He jumps off the swing and runs to Lily. He hugs her and says, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was wrong. The dog is scary. Let's go home!" + +Tom and Lily run to their houses. The dog chases them, but he cannot catch them. He stops and barks. He is sad. He just wanted to play. +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they decided to go on an adventure in the woods behind their house. They packed some snacks, a map, and a flashlight in their backpacks. + +"Let's go west, like the cowboys!" Tom said, pointing to the left. + +"No, let's go east, like the explorers!" Lily said, pointing to the right. + +They started to argue and complain. They both wanted to go their own way. + +"West is better!" Tom said. + +"East is better!" Lily said. + +They pulled the map and tore it in half. They each took a piece and ran in opposite directions. + +Soon, they realized they were lost. The woods were dark and scary. They heard strange noises and saw shadows. They wished they had stayed together. + +"Tom, where are you?" Lily cried. + +"Lily, where are you?" Tom cried. + +They tried to find each other, but they couldn't. They were too far apart. + +They sat down on the ground and hugged their backpacks. They were hungry, cold, and afraid. They missed their home and their mom and dad. They missed their twin. + +They learned a lesson. They should have listened to each other and shared the map. They should have worked together and had fun. They should have been kind and not complain. + +They hoped someone would find them and take them back to their comfortable bed. They hoped they would see each other again. They hoped they would say sorry and hug. They hoped they would never fight again. +Lily liked to sign. She learned how to sign from her mom, who was deaf. Lily could talk and hear, but she also liked to use her hands to say things. She signed to her mom, her dad, her friends, and even her cat. + +One day, Lily went to the park with her mom. She saw a boy playing with a ball. She wanted to play with him, so she ran to him and signed, "Hi, I'm Lily. Can I play with you?" + +The boy looked at her with shock. He did not understand what she was doing. He thought she was making funny faces and gestures. He said, "What are you doing? Are you crazy?" + +Lily felt sad. She did not mean to scare him. She tried to explain, "I'm not crazy. I'm signing. It's how I talk to my mom. She can't hear. Do you want to learn?" + +The boy shook his head. He did not want to learn. He thought signing was weird and silly. He said, "No, I don't want to learn. Go away. You're weird." + +Lily felt more sad. She did not like being called weird. She wanted to make a friend. She was persistent. She did not give up. She said, "Please, don't be mean. Signing is fun and easy. Look, this is how you say ball." She showed him how to sign ball with her hands. + +The boy looked at her again. He saw that she was not trying to be funny or crazy. She was trying to be nice and friendly. He felt curious. He said, "OK, show me more. How do you say park?" + +Lily smiled. She was happy. She showed him how to sign park and other words. They played with the ball and signed to each other. They had fun. They became friends. Lily was glad she was persistent. She taught the boy something new and made a friend. She liked to sign. +Lila was a compassionate girl who liked to help animals. One day, she found a bird with a hurt wing in her garden. She gently picked up the bird and brought it inside her house. + +"Mama, look what I found!" she said, showing the bird to her mother. "Can we help it?" + +Her mother smiled and nodded. She took a cloth and some water and cleaned the bird's wing. Then she examined it carefully. + +"It's not broken, just bruised," she said. "But it needs some rest and some medicine." + +"What kind of medicine?" Lila asked. + +"Some herbs that grow in the garden," her mother said. "They can make the bird feel better. Do you want to help me find them?" + +Lila nodded eagerly. She followed her mother outside and looked for the herbs. Her mother showed her how to recognize them by their shape, color and smell. + +"This is mint, it smells fresh and cool," her mother said, picking some leaves. "And this is lavender, it smells sweet and calm." + +They collected some mint, lavender, chamomile and rosemary. Then they went back inside and boiled some water. They put the herbs in the water and let them steep for a while. Then they strained the liquid and poured it into a small bowl. + +"Here, this is the medicine," her mother said, holding the bowl. "It will soothe the bird's pain and help it heal." + +She dipped a cotton ball in the liquid and gently dabbed it on the bird's wing. The bird chirped softly and closed its eyes. + +"Thank you, mama," Lila said, stroking the bird's head. "And thank you, herbs." + +"You're welcome, sweetie," her mother said, hugging her.
