+"Anna, Ben, what are you doing?" she asks. "It is too early to play. Let me sleep, please."
+
+But Anna and Ben do not listen. They keep shouting and jumping. They think grandma is grumpy and old. They do not care if she is tired or sick.
+
+Grandma feels sad and angry. She tries to get up, but she falls off the couch. She hurts her head and cries.
+
+Anna and Ben stop playing. They see grandma crying and bleeding. They feel scared and sorry.
+
+"Grandma, grandma, are you okay?" they ask. They run to her and hug her. They say they are sorry and they love her.
+
+Grandma hugs them back. She says she loves them too, but they need to be gentle and respectful. She says elderly people need more rest and care. She says youth people need to learn and listen.
+
+Anna and Ben nod and say they understand. They help grandma to the bathroom and get a bandage. They say they will not wake her up again. They say they will be good and quiet.
+
+Grandma smiles and thanks them. She says they are good and sweet. She says she is proud of them. She says they can play later, when she wakes up.
+
+The moral of the story is: Respect and care for the elderly, and do not disturb their sleep.
+Sara liked to draw on paper with her crayons. She made many pictures of her family, her friends, and her pets. She was very proud of her drawings and showed them to everyone.
+
+One day, Sara ran out of paper. She looked around and saw a big, white table in the living room. She thought it would be a good place to draw. She took her crayons and started to make a big picture on the table.
+
+Mom came into the living room and saw what Sara was doing. She was very angry. She said, "Sara, what are you doing? You can't draw on the table! That is very bad! You have to rub it off right now!"
+
+Sara was scared and sad. She said, "But Mom, I wanted to make a picture for you. I didn't have any paper. I'm sorry."
+
+Mom said, "Sara, I appreciate that you want to make a picture for me, but you have to use paper, not the table. The table is not for drawing. It is for eating and playing. If you draw on the table, you will ruin it. And you will make a big mess. You have to be careful and respectful of the things in the house. Do you understand?"
+
+Sara nodded. She said, "Yes, Mom, I understand. I'm sorry. I won't do it again. Can you help me rub it off?"
+
+Mom said, "Yes, I will help you. But first, you have to say sorry to the table. It is not a usual thing to draw on the table. You have to be kind to the table."
+
+Sara said, "Sorry, table. I didn't mean to hurt you. You are a good table. Thank you for letting us eat and play on you."
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "That's very nice of you, Sara. Now, let's get a cloth and some water and rub off the crayons. And next time, if you want to draw, ask me for some paper, okay?"
+
+Sara said, "Okay, Mom. Thank you. I love you."
+
+Mom said, "I love you too, Sara. And I love your drawings. But only on paper, please."
+
+They hugged and then rubbed off the crayons from the table. Sara learned a lesson that day. She learned to respect the things in the house and to use the right tools for the right things. She also learned that Mom loved her and her drawings, but she had to follow the rules. And she learned that the table was not a usual thing to draw on, but a special thing to be grateful for.
+Lila and Ben love to play at the park. They like to swing, climb and run. But their favorite thing is to slide. They slide down the big slide, the small slide and the twisty slide.
+
+One day, they see a new slide at the park. It is very shiny and has a silver color. Lila and Ben run to the new slide. They want to try it first.
+
+But when they get there, they see an elderly lady sitting on the slide. She has white hair and a blue dress. She smiles at them and says, "Hello, children. Do you want to slide with me?"
+
+Lila and Ben are surprised. They have never seen an elderly lady on a slide before. They wonder why she is there. They are also a little shy. They do not know what to say.
+
+The elderly lady sees their faces and says, "Don't be afraid. I like to slide too. It makes me feel young and happy. Do you know why this slide is silver?"
+
+Lila and Ben shake their heads. They are curious.
+
+The elderly lady says, "This slide is silver because it is special. It is a magic slide. It can take you to different places and times. You just have to close your eyes and wish. Do you want to try?"
+
+Lila and Ben look at each other. They are not sure. They like the park, but they also like magic. They decide to try.
+
+They nod at the elderly lady and say, "Yes, please."
+
+The elderly lady says, "Good. Then hold my hands and sit with me. Close your eyes and think of a place or a time you want to go. Ready? One, two, three, slide!"
+
+Lila and Ben close their eyes and wish. They feel the slide move under them. They hear a whooshing sound. They wonder where they will go. They open their eyes and see...
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big bike with many gears. It looked fun and fast.
+
+"Can we try the bike?" Lily asked Tom.
+
+"I don't know. It is not ours. Maybe the owner will be mad," Tom said.
+
+But Lily wanted to ride the bike. She urged Tom to come with her. She said, "Please, Tom. It will be fun. We will be careful. We will not break it."
+
+Tom was scared, but he liked Lily. He followed her to the bike. Lily climbed on the seat and Tom sat behind her. Lily turned the handle and the bike moved. It was hard to balance. Lily pushed the gear to make the bike go faster.
+
+"Look, Tom. We are riding the bike. We are so cool," Lily said.
+
+But then they saw a man running towards them. He was shouting and waving his arms. He was the owner of the bike. He was not happy.
+
+"Hey, stop! That is my bike. You are not allowed to touch it. Get off now!" he yelled.
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They tried to stop the bike, but they did not know how. The bike was going too fast. They saw an open gate ahead. They hoped it would lead to a safe place.
+
+"Let's go through the gate, Lily. Maybe we can hide there," Tom said.
+
+"OK, Tom. Hold on tight," Lily said.
+
+They zoomed through the gate, hoping to escape the angry man. But they did not know that the gate led to a farm. And on the farm, there were many animals. And the animals did not like strangers on a bike. They saw a cow, a pig, a sheep and a dog. They all started to chase Tom and Lily.
+
+"Uh-oh, Tom. This is not good. What do we do?" Lily said.
+
+"I don't know, Lily. This is bad. We should have listened to you. We should not have taken the bike," Tom said.
+
+They wished they could go back to the park. They wished they could play with their own toys. They wished they could say sorry to the man. They learned a lesson. They learned not to take things that are not theirs. They learned to be careful with gears. They learned to stay away from open gates.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play outside. They have a big box. They want to make a house with the box.
+
+They work hard. They cut a door and a window. They draw flowers and stars. They put a blanket on the top. They are happy.
+
+But then they hear a loud noise. Boom! Boom! Boom! It is thunder. They see dark clouds. They feel rain. They are scared.
+
+"Let's go inside!" Sue says. "No, let's stay in our house!" Tom says. "Our house is different. It is strong and cozy. It will keep us safe."
+
+They hold hands. They sit in their house. They sing a song. They wait for the thunder to stop. They are brave. They are still happy.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the bath. They have many toys in the bath. They have a duck, a boat, a fish and a frog. They also have shampoo to wash their hair.
+
+One day, Lily wants to play with the shampoo. She says to Ben, "I want to make bubbles with the shampoo. Give me the shampoo, Ben."
+
+Ben says, "No, Lily. The shampoo is mine. I want to wash my hair. You have the duck, Lily. Play with the duck."
+
+Lily is angry. She says, "No, Ben. The duck is boring. I want the shampoo. You have the boat, Ben. Play with the boat."
+
+Ben is angry too. He says, "No, Lily. The boat is fun. I want the shampoo. You have the fish, Lily. Play with the fish."
+
+Lily and Ben start to fight. They pull the shampoo from each other. They splash water everywhere. They make a big mess.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She comes to the bathroom. She sees Lily and Ben fighting. She sees the water and the shampoo on the floor. She is not happy.
+
+She says, "Lily and Ben, stop fighting. You are making a big mess. You are wasting the shampoo. The shampoo is not a toy. The shampoo is for washing your hair. You have to share the shampoo. And you have to clean the bathroom."
+
+Lily and Ben feel sorry. They say, "Sorry, Mom. We will share the shampoo. We will clean the bathroom."
+
+Mom says, "Thank you, Lily and Ben. Now, finish your bath. And be nice to each other."
+
+Lily and Ben finish their bath. They share the shampoo. They wash their hair. They make bubbles. They play with their toys. They are nice to each other. They are happy. Mom is happy too.
+Ben and Mia were on the same team for soccer. They liked to play soccer with their friends and have fun. One day, they had a big game against another team. The other team wore red shirts and had big kids. Ben and Mia were a little scared of them.
+
+The game started and the other team was very fast and strong. They scored many goals and Ben and Mia's team could not stop them. Ben and Mia felt sad and wanted to give up. They looked at each other and saw tears in their eyes.
+
+But then, they remembered something. They remembered that their coach had told them to never give up and to always try their best. They remembered that their team was their family and that they loved each other. They remembered that soccer was fun and that they could do anything if they worked together.
+
+So, Ben and Mia wiped their tears and smiled. They ran to their team and cheered them up. They said, "We can do this! We are a team! We are not scared!" They hugged their friends and got ready to play again.
+
+The game was not over yet. Ben and Mia's team played harder and smarter. They passed the ball and ran and kicked. They scored some goals and stopped some goals. They had fun and laughed and cheered. The other team was surprised and confused. They did not expect Ben and Mia's team to fight back.
+
+The game ended and the score was tied. Both teams had done well and played fair. They shook hands and said good game. Ben and Mia were happy and proud. They had not won, but they had not lost either. They had learned a lesson and had a good time. They remembered that they were a team and that they were not scared. They remembered that they loved soccer and each other.
+Lily loved her red car. She got it for her birthday from her dad. It was shiny and fast and made a loud zoom sound when she pushed it. She played with it every day in the park, on the sidewalk, and in her room.
+
+One day, she saw a boy with a blue car. It was bigger and newer than her red car. It had lights and stickers and a remote control. The boy made his car zoom all over the grass, under the bench, and around the fountain. Lily watched him and felt envious. She wanted his blue car.
+
+She walked over to the boy and said, "Can I play with your car?" The boy looked at her and shook his head. "No, this is my car. Go away." He made his car zoom faster and farther, as if to show off. Lily felt angry and sad. She thought, "That's not fair. He has a better car than me. I wish I had his car."
+
+She waited until the boy was not looking. Then she ran and grabbed his car. She turned around and ran back to her spot. She held the blue car in her hands and smiled. She thought, "Now I have his car. Now I have the best car."
+
+But the boy saw her and shouted, "Hey, that's my car! Give it back!" He ran after her and tried to take his car. Lily held on tight and said, "No, this is my car now. You can have my red car." She threw her red car on the ground and made the blue car zoom away.
+
+The boy picked up the red car and looked at it. He saw that it was shiny and fast and made a loud zoom sound. He thought, "This is a nice car. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe I don't need the blue car." He smiled and said, "OK, you can have the blue car. I like the red car. Can we be friends?"
+
+Lily stopped and looked at him. She saw that he was smiling and holding her red car. She thought, "Maybe I was wrong too. Maybe I don't need the blue car. Maybe I like the red car better. Maybe we can be friends." She smiled and said, "OK, I can have the blue car. You can have the red car. Yes, we can be friends."
+
+They swapped cars and played together. They made their cars zoom all over the park, on the sidewalk, and in their room. They were happy and shared their cars. They learned that it is better to be kind than to be envious.
+Ben and Mia are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom. One day, they see a puppy in the park. The puppy is brown and fluffy. It has a red collar.
+
+"Look, mom, a puppy!" Ben says.
+
+"Can we pet it, mom?" Mia asks.
+
+Mom nods. "Yes, but we have to ask the owner first. And be gentle and kind to the puppy."
+
+They walk to the puppy and its owner. The owner is a nice lady. She smiles at them.
+
+"Hello, do you like my puppy? His name is Max. He is very friendly and reliable. He always listens to me and protects me," the lady says.
+
+"Hi, can we pet Max?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, he loves children. You can pet him and play with him. But don't pull his tail or ears, okay?" the lady says.
+
+Ben and Mia nod. They pet Max and observe him. He wags his tail and licks their faces. He barks and runs around them. He fetches a ball and brings it back to them. He is very playful and happy.
+
+Ben and Mia laugh and hug Max. They like him a lot. They thank the lady for letting them play with Max.
+
+"You're welcome. Max likes you too. Maybe we can see you again in the park. Bye-bye," the lady says.
+
+"Bye-bye, Max. You are a good puppy," Ben and Mia say.
+
+They wave to Max and the lady. They go back to their mom. They tell her how much they enjoyed playing with Max. Mom smiles and hugs them.
+
+"I'm glad you had fun. Max is a nice puppy. Maybe we can get a puppy of our own someday. What do you think?" mom says.
+
+Ben and Mia nod and clap. They love puppies. They hope to see Max again. They are happy.
+Sam and Mia are twins. They like to play with their toys and their computer. They have many games on their computer. They can draw, sing, and learn new things.
+
+One day, their mom says, "It is time for your nap, Sam and Mia. You played a lot today. You need to rest your eyes and your brains."
+
+"But mom, we are not sleepy," Sam says. "We want to play more on the computer."
+
+"Yeah, mom, we want to finish our puzzle," Mia says. "It is very fun and colorful."
+
+Mom smiles and says, "I know, my loves, but you can play more later. Napping is good for you. It helps you grow and be healthy. And you might have a nice dream."
+
+Sam and Mia sigh. They do not want to nap, but they love their mom. They know she is friendly and wants the best for them. They say, "Okay, mom, we will nap. But can we take our teddy bears with us?"
+
+"Of course, you can," mom says. "Your teddy bears are your friends. They will keep you company and make you feel cozy."
+
+Sam and Mia hug their mom and their teddy bears. They go to their room and lie down on their beds. Mom kisses them and says, "Sweet dreams, Sam and Mia. I love you very much."
+
+Sam and Mia close their eyes and snuggle with their teddy bears. They feel warm and safe. They fall asleep and have a nice dream. They dream that they are flying on a rainbow with their teddy bears and their computer. They see many beautiful things and hear many happy sounds. They are glad they napped.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a big camera in their dad's room. They wanted to record themselves doing funny things.
+
+"Let's make a show!" Lily said. "I will be a princess and you will be a dragon."
+
+"OK," Ben said. "But I want some cereal first. I'm hungry."
+
+They went to the kitchen and poured some cereal in a bowl. But they did not see the milk was almost empty. There was only a little bit left.
+
+"Give me some milk!" Ben said. "You have more than me!"
+
+"No, I don't!" Lily said. "You have enough!"
+
+They started to fight over the milk. They pulled and pushed the carton until it spilled all over the floor. The cereal got wet and soggy.
+
+"Uh-oh," Lily said. "We made a mess."
+
+They heard their mom coming. She was not happy.
+
+"What are you doing?" she asked. "Look at this mess! And why do you have the camera?"
+
+"We wanted to record a show," Ben said.
+
+"Well, you're not going to record anything now," mom said. "You're going to clean this up and go to your room. No more camera for you."
+
+She took the camera and the cereal away. Lily and Ben felt sad. They had no show, no cereal, and no fun. They wished they had been more graceful and shared the milk.
+Tom and Jen are twins. They like to watch TV a lot. Mom and Dad say TV is bad for them. They say TV makes them lazy and silly. But Tom and Jen do not listen. They watch TV all day.
+
+One day, Mom and Dad go out. They tell Tom and Jen to be good. They say no TV for them. They say they will be back soon. Tom and Jen nod. But they do not mean it. They wait for Mom and Dad to leave. Then they run to the TV.
+
+They turn on the TV. They see their favorite show. They are happy. They jump and clap. They sit on the couch. They eat snacks. They make a mess. They do not care. They only care about TV.
+
+But then something bad happens. The TV makes a loud noise. It sparks and smokes. It goes black. Tom and Jen are scared. They broke the TV. They do not know what to do. They cry and scream.
+
+Mom and Dad come back. They hear the noise. They see the smoke. They see the mess. They see the TV. They are angry. They yell at Tom and Jen. They say they are naughty and foolish. They say they are not lucky. They say they have to pay for the TV. They say they have to do chores. They say they have no TV for a long time. Tom and Jen are sad. They wish they listened to Mom and Dad. They wish they did not break the TV. They wish they were lucky.
+Sara was very hungry in the morning. She wanted to eat cereal with milk and fruit. She went to the kitchen and saw a big box of cereal on the table. She tried to reach it, but it was too high for her. She looked around and saw a chair. She had an idea.
+
+She pushed the chair to the table and climbed on it. She grabbed the box of cereal and opened it. She poured some cereal into a bowl and added milk and fruit. She was very happy. She took a spoon and started to eat. It was incredible. She loved cereal.
+
+But she did not see that the box of cereal was still open. And she did not see that the chair was not very stable. When she moved, the chair wobbled and the box of cereal fell. The cereal spilled all over the floor and made a big mess. Sara was scared and sad. She did not know what to do.
+
+She heard her mom coming. She wanted to hide, but it was too late. Her mom saw the mess and was angry. She asked Sara what happened. Sara told her the truth. She said she was hungry and wanted cereal, but she could not reach it. She said she used the chair and the box fell. She said she was sorry.
+
+Her mom sighed and hugged her. She said she was not mad at her, but she was disappointed. She said she should have asked for help instead of doing it by herself. She said she could have hurt herself or broken something. She said she needed to be careful and listen to her mom. She said she loved her.
+
+Sara felt sorry and hugged her back. She said she loved her too. She said she would ask for help next time. She said she would help her clean the mess. Her mom smiled and thanked her. She said they would eat cereal together after they cleaned. She said cereal was incredible, but not as incredible as Sara.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to explore. One day, they saw a big hill near their house. They wanted to see what was on the other side. They asked their mom if they could go.
+
+"Be careful, and mind the road," their mom said. "Don't go too far, and come back before dark."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and took their backpacks. They walked up the hill, holding hands. They saw many flowers and birds on the way. They felt happy and curious.
+
+When they reached the top of the hill, they gasped. They saw a wide valley with a river and a bridge. There were many trees and animals in the valley. It looked like a picture in a book.
+
+"Wow, this is impressive!" Lily said.
+
+"It's beautiful!" Ben agreed.
+
+They ran down the hill and crossed the bridge. They played in the river and picked some berries. They saw a deer and a rabbit. They waved at them and smiled.
+
+They had so much fun that they forgot the time. They looked at the sky and saw that it was getting dark. They remembered their mom's words and felt scared.
+
+"We have to go back!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, let's go!" Ben said.
+
+They ran back to the bridge and up the hill. They hoped their mom was not angry. They saw their house and their mom waiting for them. They hugged her and said sorry.
+
+"It's okay, I'm glad you're safe," their mom said. "But next time, mind the clock, too. Now, tell me about your adventure."
+
+Lily and Ben told their mom about the valley and the river and the animals. Their mom listened and smiled. She was proud of their courage and imagination. She gave them a kiss and a cookie. They felt happy and loved.
+Lily was sick. She had a bad cough and a sore throat. She did not want to eat or play. She only wanted to sleep in her bed.
+
+Mommy was worried. She called the doctor on the phone. The doctor said he would send some pills to make Lily feel better. He said Mommy had to be careful and give Lily only one pill every day.
+
+The next day, a man came to the door. He had a box with the pills. He gave the box to Mommy and said, "Here are the pills for Lily. Remember, only one pill a day."
+
+Mommy thanked the man and took the box. She opened it and saw a bottle with the pills. The pills were small and white. They had a picture of a flower on them.
+
+Mommy went to Lily's room. She woke her up and said, "Lily, I have something for you. The doctor sent some pills to make you feel better. They have a flower on them. Do you like flowers?"
+
+Lily nodded. She liked flowers. She liked pink and yellow and purple flowers. She opened her mouth and Mommy gave her a pill. She swallowed it with some water.
+
+"Good girl," Mommy said. "Now you can go back to sleep. Tomorrow you will take another pill and soon you will be well."
+
+Lily smiled. She felt a little better. She hugged Mommy and said, "Thank you, Mommy. I love you."
+
+"I love you too, Lily," Mommy said. She kissed her forehead and tucked her in. She hoped the pills would work. She did not know that the flower on the pills was a clue. The pills were not ordinary pills. They were magic pills. They would not only cure Lily's cough and sore throat. They would also give her a special gift. A gift that would change her life forever. But that is another story.
+Anna and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. Anna has a big box of figures that look like animals, people and cars. Ben has a puzzle with many pieces that make a picture of a farm.
+
+"Look, Ben, I have a figure that is big and gray and has a long nose. Do you know what it is?" Anna asks.
+
+Ben looks at the figure and thinks. He remembers seeing something like that in a book. "Is it an elephant?" he guesses.
+
+"Yes, you are right! It is an elephant. You are brilliant, Ben!" Anna says. She gives him the figure and picks another one. "Now, what about this one? It is small and brown and has a fluffy tail. Do you know what it is?"
+
+Ben looks at the figure and thinks again. He remembers seeing something like that in the park. "Is it a squirrel?" he guesses.
+
+"Yes, you are right again! It is a squirrel. You are very brilliant, Ben!" Anna says. She gives him the figure and picks another one. "Now, this one is tricky. It is big and green and has scales. Do you know what it is?"
+
+Ben looks at the figure and thinks hard. He has never seen something like that before. He tries to guess. "Is it a dragon?" he guesses.
+
+Anna laughs. "No, it is not a dragon. It is a crocodile. But that was a good guess, Ben. Dragons are cool. Maybe we can pretend this is a dragon and make a story with it." She says.
+
+"OK, let's do that. I like stories with dragons. They are fun and exciting." Ben says.
+
+They put the puzzle aside and start to make a story with the figures. They use their imagination and have a lot of fun. They are happy and brilliant.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they went to the forest with their mom and dad. They saw many trees, flowers, and animals. They also saw a stream that was flowing fast and making noise.
+
+"Can we go near the stream, mom?" Ben asked.
+
+"Only if you are careful, Ben. The stream is mighty and can be dangerous. You have to hold my hand or dad's hand," mom said.
+
+"Okay, mom," Ben said. He took mom's hand and walked to the edge of the stream. He saw some rocks and sticks in the water. He wanted to touch them.
+
+"What about you, Lily? Do you want to see the stream?" dad asked.
+
+"No, thank you, dad. I want to stay here and pick some flowers. They are pretty and smell nice," Lily said. She took dad's hand and walked to a meadow. She saw many colors and shapes of flowers. She wanted to make a bouquet.
+
+Ben and Lily both had fun in the forest. They chose different things to do, but they were both happy. They learned that they can have different interests and still love each other. They also learned to listen to their mom and dad and be safe. They thanked them for taking them to the forest and hugged them. They went home with a smile and a gift. Ben had a rock and a stick from the stream. Lily had a bouquet of flowers from the meadow. They shared their gifts with each other and said good night.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. Ben had a big truck and Lily had a doll. They were having fun until Ben saw Lily's doll.
+
+"Can I play with your doll?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, this is my doll. You have your truck," Lily said.
+
+"But I want to play with your doll. It has a pretty dress and hair," Ben said.
+
+He tried to grab the doll from Lily, but she held it tight.
+
+"Let go of my doll! You are rude!" Lily shouted.
+
+She pulled the doll back and Ben fell on the floor. He saw an iron on the table. It was cold and heavy. He had an idea.
+
+He got up and ran to the table. He took the iron and ran back to Lily.
+
+"Give me your doll or I will snap it with this iron!" Ben said.
+
+He lifted the iron over his head and swung it at the doll.
+
+Lily screamed and hugged her doll. She was scared and angry.
+
+"Stop! You are mean! You will break my doll!" Lily said.
+
+She kicked Ben in the leg and he dropped the iron. It made a loud noise on the floor.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw Ben and Lily crying and the iron on the floor.
+
+"What is going on here?" Mom asked.
+
+She was not happy. She picked up the iron and put it away. She looked at Ben and Lily.
+
+"You two need a time out. You were rude and dangerous. You could have hurt each other or the doll or the iron. You need to say sorry and share your toys," Mom said.
+
+She took Ben and Lily to their rooms. They had to sit on their beds and think about what they did.
+
+They felt bad and sorry. They did not want to be rude or mean. They wanted to be friends and play nicely.
+
+After a while, Mom came back and asked them if they were ready to apologize.
+
+They nodded and hugged each other. They said sorry and promised to share their toys.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them too. She was glad they learned their lesson.
+
+She took them back to the living room and gave them a snack. They played with their toys together and had fun. They did not fight or snap anymore.
+Anna and Ben were at the park with their mom. They liked to play on the slide, but they had to wait for their turn. Sometimes the other kids were harsh and pushed them away.
+
+"Mom, can you tie my shoe?" Anna asked. Her shoe was loose and she was afraid to fall.
+
+"Of course, sweetie. Here, let me help you." Mom bent down and tied Anna's shoe. She gave her a kiss on the cheek. "There you go. Now you can slide safely."
+
+"Thank you, mom. Can I go now?" Anna said.
+
+"Yes, you can. But be careful and share with the others, okay?" Mom said.
+
+Anna nodded and ran to the slide. She saw Ben waiting at the top. He smiled and waved at her.
+
+"Hi, Anna. Do you want to slide with me?" Ben asked.
+

+Tim and Kim were twins who loved to watch shows at the theater. They liked to see the people sing and dance and make funny faces. But Tim and Kim were very different. Tim was kind and quiet, and he always listened to his mom and dad. Kim was rude and loud, and she always did what she wanted.
+
+One day, mom and dad took Tim and Kim to see a new show at the theater. It was about a boy who could not hear, but he learned to play music with his heart. Tim was very excited to see the show, but Kim was bored. She did not care about the boy who could not hear. She wanted to see something else.
+
+When the show started, Kim began to talk and laugh and make noise. She did not care that she was bothering the other people who came to see the show. She did not care that she was hurting the boy who could not hear, who was on the stage. She did not care that Tim was sad and angry, and he asked her to stop.
+
+Mom and dad tried to make Kim be quiet, but she did not listen. She kept on talking and laughing and making noise. Then, something bad happened. A big light fell from the ceiling and hit Kim on the head. It made a loud bang, and Kim screamed. She was hurt, and she was scared. She could not hear anything. She was deaf.
+
+Tim and mom and dad ran to help Kim. They took her to the hospital, where the doctor said she would be okay, but she might not hear again. Kim was very sorry for what she had done. She wished she had been kind and quiet, and she had listened to her mom and dad. She wished she had cared about the boy who could not hear, who was on the stage. She wished she had not hurt Tim, who was her brother.
+
+Tim was very sad for Kim. He loved her, even though she was rude and loud. He hoped she would hear again, and he hoped she would learn to be nice. He hugged her, and he whispered in her ear, "I love you, Kim. I hope you can hear me." Kim could not hear him, but she felt his hug, and she saw his lips. She knew what he said, and she wept. She wept because she was sorry, and she wept because she was grateful. She wept because she loved him, too.
+Lily liked to wear pretty things. She had a lot of pretty things in her room. She had pretty dresses, pretty shoes, pretty hats, and pretty jewels. She liked to look at herself in the mirror and pretend she was a princess.
+
+One day, Lily saw a very pretty thing in her mom's closet. It was a shiny necklace with a big red stone. Lily wanted to wear it. She thought it would make her look very pretty. She took the necklace and put it around her neck. She felt very happy.
+
+She went to the living room to show her mom. But her mom was not there. She was on the phone in the kitchen. Lily did not want to wait. She wanted to show her mom how pretty she was. She decided to go outside and play.
+
+She ran to the backyard. She saw her friend Tom. Tom was playing with his truck. Lily wanted to show Tom her pretty necklace. She ran to him and said, "Look, Tom, look at my pretty necklace!"
+
+Tom looked at Lily. He saw the shiny necklace with the big red stone. He liked it. He wanted it. He said, "Wow, Lily, that is a pretty necklace. Can I have it?"
+
+Lily said, "No, Tom, this is my necklace. I found it in my mom's closet. It is very pretty. I want to wear it."
+
+Tom said, "Please, Lily, let me have it. I will give you my truck. It is very fun. You can play with it."
+
+Lily said, "No, Tom, I don't want your truck. I want my necklace. Go away!"
+
+Tom got angry. He said, "Fine, Lily, if you don't want to share, I will take it from you!" He grabbed the necklace and pulled it hard.
+
+Lily screamed. She felt a pain in her neck. The necklace broke. The shiny beads and the big red stone fell to the ground. Lily and Tom both looked at the broken necklace. They felt very sad.
+
+Lily started to cry. She said, "Tom, you broke my pretty necklace! You are a bad person! I hate you!"
+
+Tom started to cry too. He said, "Lily, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to break your pretty necklace. I just wanted to have it. You are a mean person! I hate you too!"
+
+They both sat on the ground and cried. They did not talk to each other. They did not play with each other.
+
+Then they heard a voice. It was Lily's mom. She had heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Lily and Tom crying on the ground. She saw the broken necklace. She recognized it. It was her necklace. It was a very special necklace. It was a gift from her grandma. She loved it very much.
+
+She was very angry. She said, "Lily, Tom, what have you done? You broke my necklace! This was my grandma's necklace! It was very precious! How could you do this?"
+
+Lily and Tom looked at Lily's mom. They saw her angry face. They saw her sad eyes. They felt very sorry. They said, "Mom, we're sorry, we didn't know, we thought it was a pretty thing, we wanted to wear it, we fought over it, we broke it, we're sorry, we're sorry, we're sorry!"
+
+Lily's mom sighed. She said, "Lily, Tom, I know you're sorry, but sorry is not enough. You have to learn to respect other people's things. You have to learn to share and be nice. You have to learn that pretty things are not as important as people. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They said, "Yes, mom, we understand. We're sorry, mom. We love you, mom."
+
+Lily's mom hugged them. She said, "I love you too, Lily. I love you too, Tom. But you have to be more careful. And you have to help me fix my necklace. Do you think you can do that?"
+
+Lily and Tom nodded again. They said, "Yes, mom, we can do that. We will help you fix your necklace. We will be good. We will be friends."
+
+Lily's mom smiled. She said, "That's good. Come on, let's go inside and see what we can do. Maybe we can make the necklace even prettier. Maybe we can make it a necklace for all of us. What do you think?"
+
+Lily and Tom smiled too. They said, "Yes, mom, that sounds good. Let's go inside. Let's make a pretty necklace for all of us."
+
+They got up and followed Lily's mom. They held hands. They felt
+Lily and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They wanted to serve tea to their dolls and teddies. They put some cups and plates on a tray and filled them with water. They pretended it was hot tea and milk.
+
+"Be careful, Tom," Lily said. "Don't spill the tea on the floor. Mommy will be angry. The floor is expensive. She said it is made of wood."
+
+"I won't spill it, Lily," Tom said. "I am a good waiter. Watch me carry the tray." He lifted the tray with both hands and walked slowly to the table where the dolls and teddies were waiting.
+
+But Tom did not see the cat. The cat was sleeping under the table. When Tom got close, the cat woke up and jumped out. It bumped into Tom's legs and made him lose his balance. The tray fell from his hands and crashed on the floor. The cups and plates broke into pieces. The water splashed everywhere.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Tom cried. "Mommy will be so mad!"
+
+They heard Mommy's footsteps coming from the living room. They looked at each other with fear. They did not know what to do. They wished they had not played with the expensive floor.
+Lily was a girl who liked to taste new things. She tasted fruits, vegetables, bread, cheese, and even flowers. She thought everything had a unique flavor and made her happy.
+
+One day, she saw a big jar of honey on the kitchen table. She wondered how it tasted. She climbed on a chair and reached for the jar. She opened it and dipped her finger in the sticky liquid. She put it in her mouth and smiled. It was sweet and yummy.
+
+But then, she heard her mom's voice. "Lily, what are you doing?" Mom asked. She sounded angry. Lily turned around and saw Mom standing in the doorway. She had a frown on her face.
+
+"I'm tasting honey, Mom. It's good!" Lily said.
+
+"Lily, you can't taste honey like that. It's not safe. You could spill it or get sick. And you made a mess on the table and your clothes. You have to ask me before you taste anything." Mom said.
+
+Lily felt sad and scared. She didn't mean to make Mom mad. She just wanted to try something new. She started to cry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom. I won't do it again. Please don't be mad at me." Lily said.
+
+Mom sighed and hugged Lily. She was not really mad, just worried. She loved Lily and wanted her to be safe and happy.
+
+"It's okay, Lily. I'm not mad at you. I'm glad you like to taste new things. But you have to be careful and ask me first. Honey is good, but only in small amounts. And you have to clean up after yourself. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+Lily nodded and wiped her tears. She understood. She hugged Mom back and said, "I love you, Mom. Thank you for the honey."
+
+"I love you too, Lily. You're my unique and sweet girl." Mom said.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with red fruits. They want to try them.

+They kneel under the tree and pick some fruits. They look like apples, but smaller. They bite them and make a face. The fruits are sour! They spit them out and say "yuck!"
+
+A man sees them and laughs. He says "Those are not apples, those are crab apples. They are not good to eat. They are only good for making jam."
+
+Tom and Jen are confused. They ask "What is jam?" The man says "Jam is a sweet thing you put on bread. I can show you how to make it, if you want."
+
+Tom and Jen nod. They follow the man to his house. He has a big pot and a lot of sugar. He puts the crab apples and the sugar in the pot and cooks them. He stirs and stirs until the fruits are soft and mushy. He fills some jars with the jam and gives one to Tom and Jen.
+
+They say "Thank you!" and take the jar home. They spread some jam on bread and taste it. It is not sour anymore. It is sweet and yummy. They smile and say "We like jam!"
+Ben and Lily like to pretend they are farmers. They have a big box of corn in their playroom. They take turns to fill their toy trucks with corn and drive them to the market. They make noises like engines and horns.
+
+One day, a big dog comes into the playroom. He sees the corn and thinks it is food. He jumps into the box and starts to eat the corn. Ben and Lily are scared. They run to the door and shout for mom.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to the playroom. She sees the dog and the corn. She is alert. She grabs a broom and chases the dog away. She tells Ben and Lily to be careful and not to leave the door open. She hugs them and gives them a snack.
+
+Ben and Lily are happy. They thank mom and say sorry for the mess. They decide to pretend they are something else. They put on their hats and coats and pretend they are explorers. They go outside and look for bugs and flowers. They have fun and forget about the dog and the corn.

+
+"Please, mom, can I have these crayons? They are so beautiful and different. I can make more original pictures with them."
+
+Mom looked at the price of the crayons. They were very expensive. She shook her head and said, "No, Lily, I'm sorry. We can't afford these crayons. You already have many crayons at home. Why don't you use them and be happy?"
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She didn't understand why mom said no. She thought mom didn't love her or her drawings. She threw a tantrum and cried loudly. She kicked and screamed and grabbed the box of crayons. She didn't want to let go.
+
+Mom tried to calm her down and take the crayons away. She said, "Lily, stop it. You are being very naughty and rude. You can't have everything you want. You have to share and be grateful. Give me the crayons, now."
+
+But Lily didn't listen. She held on to the crayons with all her strength. She pulled and twisted and scratched. She didn't care if she hurt mom or herself. She only wanted the crayons.
+
+Then, something bad happened. The box of crayons broke and the crayons fell out. They rolled and scattered on the floor. Some of them broke and some of them got stepped on. Lily saw her glittery crayons ruined and lost. She felt a sharp pain in her hand. She had cut herself with the broken box.
+
+She looked at her hand and saw blood. She looked at mom and saw tears. She looked at the crayons and saw a mess. She realized what she had done. She felt ashamed and sorry.
+
+She let go of the box and hugged mom. She said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was very bad. I didn't mean to hurt you or the crayons. I love you and I love my crayons. Please, forgive me."
+
+Mom hugged her back and said, "I forgive you, Lily. I love you too. You are not bad, you just made a mistake. You learned a lesson today. Sometimes, you have to be happy with what you have and not request more. Sometimes, you have to think of others and not only yourself. Sometimes, you have to say sorry and mean it."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I understand. Thank you for teaching me. Can we go home now?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Yes, Lily. Let's go home. We can clean your hand and look at your original drawings. They are more precious than any crayons."

+
+Mommy sighed. She hugged Lily and wiped her face.

+
+Lily nodded. She said sorry again. She let Mommy put the new thermometer in her mouth. She did not spit it out. She waited for the beep. She hoped she was not too hot. She hoped she would feel better soon.

+Mom and Dad give them warm coats and boots and hats. They also give them a big sled. Tom and Lily sit on the sled and Mom and Dad push them. The sled goes fast down the hill. Tom and Lily laugh and scream. They enjoy the ride.
+
+But then, the sled hits a bump. Tom and Lily fly off the sled and land in the snow. They are wet and cold. They cry and hug each other. Mom and Dad run to them and pick them up. They say, "Are you OK? Don't worry, we are here."
+
+They take them to a small house near the mountain. They give them hot chocolate and cookies. They dry their clothes and warm their feet. They tell them stories and sing songs. Tom and Lily feel better. They smile and say, "Thank you, Mom and Dad. We love you."
+
+They look out the window and see the snow and the mountain. They think, "Maybe we can try the sled again tomorrow. But we have to be careful. And we have to stay together." They hug Mom and Dad and go to sleep. They dream of the mountain.
+Ben and Lily were playing with blocks in the playroom. They liked to build towers and houses with the blocks. Sometimes they shared the blocks and helped each other, but sometimes they fought over the blocks and knocked down each other's buildings.
+
+One day, they found a new bag of blocks in the corner. It had many colors and shapes. Ben and Lily wanted to play with the new blocks, but they did not want to share. They each grabbed a handful of blocks and ran to opposite sides of the room.
+
+"Look at my tower!" Ben shouted. He had stacked many blocks on top of each other. He was proud of his tower.
+
+"Look at my house!" Lily shouted. She had arranged many blocks in a square. She had made a door and a window. She was proud of her house.
+
+They looked at each other's blocks and felt jealous. They wanted to have more blocks. They decided to take some blocks from each other.
+
+Ben ran to Lily's house and tried to pull a block from the wall. Lily saw him and ran to stop him. She pushed him away from her house. Ben fell on the floor and dropped his blocks.
+
+Lily ran to Ben's tower and tried to grab a block from the top. Ben saw her and ran to stop her. He pushed her away from his tower. Lily fell on the floor and dropped her blocks.
+
+The blocks scattered all over the room. Some of them broke into pieces. Ben and Lily started to cry. They had ruined their blocks and their buildings.
+
+Their mom heard them crying and came to the playroom. She saw the mess and the broken blocks. She was angry and sad.
+
+"What happened here?" she asked. "Why did you break the blocks? Why did you push each other?"
+
+Ben and Lily did not answer. They felt sorry and ashamed.
+
+Mom sighed and picked up the bag of blocks. She opened it and showed them the label. It said: "Generous Blocks. For sharing and caring. Each block has a strip that connects to another block. You can make anything you want together."
+
+Ben and Lily looked at the label and the bag. They realized that they had been silly and selfish. They had missed the fun of playing with the generous blocks. They had hurt each other and their mom.
+
+They hugged their mom and said: "We are sorry, mom. We were wrong. We want to share and care. We want to play with the generous blocks. Can we try again?"
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them back. She said: "Of course, you can. I'm glad you learned your lesson. Let's clean up the mess and then we can play with the generous blocks. Maybe you can make a tower and a house together."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and smiled. They helped mom clean up the mess and then they opened the bag of blocks. They found the strips and connected the blocks. They worked together and made a big tower and a big house. They had fun and they were happy. They thanked mom for the generous blocks. They thanked each other for sharing and caring. They learned to be generous too.
+Ben and Mia were friends. They liked to play with blocks and draw circles. One day, they went to the park with their moms. There were many kids there, but Ben and Mia only wanted to play with each other.
+
+They found a big tree and made a circle with sticks. They said it was their fort and no one else could come in. They had fun pretending to be knights and princesses. They did not listen to their moms when they called them for lunch.
+
+But then, a big boy came and saw their fort. He wanted to play too, but Ben and Mia said no. He got angry and kicked their sticks away. He said they were mean and stupid. He pushed Ben and made him fall. Mia cried and ran to her mom.
+
+Ben was hurt and lonely. He wanted Mia to help him, but she was gone. He wished he had listened to his mom and shared his fort. He wished he had more friends. He wished he had not made the big boy mad. He wished he could go home. But he could not. He was stuck in the park, with no fort, no friend, and no fun.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and find things in the dirt. Sometimes they found worms, or stones, or seeds.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a skeleton!" Ben said, holding up a small bone. "It was inside a bird. Maybe a cat ate it."
+
+"What is a skeleton?" Lily asked, looking at the bone. "It is hard and white."
+
+"A skeleton is what you have inside you," Ben said. "It helps you stand and move. All animals have skeletons. Even worms."
+
+Lily touched her arm and felt something hard under her skin. "Is that my skeleton?" she asked.
+
+"Yes, it is," Ben said. "But your skeleton is not the same as the bird's. Your skeleton can grow. The bird's skeleton cannot grow anymore."
+
+"How do you know?" Lily asked.
+
+"Because I learned it from a book," Ben said. "The book had clear pictures of skeletons. Clear means you can see through them. The book showed how skeletons grow bigger as you grow older."
+
+Lily was amazed. She wanted to see the book too. She wondered how big her skeleton would grow. She hoped it would not grow too big and poke out of her skin. She decided to ask Ben more questions about skeletons later. For now, she wanted to keep digging and finding more things in the garden.
+Anna was shy. She did not like to talk to other kids at school. She liked to play with her dolls and count their hair. She had five dolls. One, two, three, four, five. She knew how to count very well.
+
+One day, a new boy came to her class. His name was Ben. He had curly hair and big eyes. He sat next to Anna. He smiled at her and said hello. Anna felt nervous. She did not say anything. She looked at her dolls.
+
+Ben liked Anna. He wanted to be her friend. He saw her dolls and asked her, "Can I play with you?" Anna nodded. She gave him one of her dolls. Ben said, "Thank you. What is her name?" Anna whispered, "Lily." Ben said, "She is pretty. Can I count her hair?" Anna nodded again.
+
+Ben and Anna counted Lily's hair together. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. They counted the hair of the other dolls too. They had fun. They laughed and smiled. Anna felt happy. She was not shy anymore.
+
+At snack time, Ben and Anna shared their cookies and milk. Ben gave Anna some sugar for her milk. Anna said, "Thank you. You are nice." Ben said, "You are welcome. You are smart." They became friends. They played and counted every day.
+Tom and Mia are in the car with Dad. They are going to the park to play. Dad says, "We need to stop at the gas station. The car needs fuel." Tom and Mia do not know what fuel is. They ask Dad.
+
+Dad says, "Fuel is what makes the car go. It is like food for the car. The car drinks fuel from a big hose. Look, there is the gas station." He points to a sign with a red star.
+
+Tom and Mia see the sign. They also see a lot of cars and trucks. Some are big and some are small. Some are loud and some are quiet. Some have colors and some are gray. Tom and Mia blink their eyes. They see so many things.
+
+Dad parks the car next to a pump. He gets out and opens the door. He says, "Stay in the car, kids. I will be right back." He takes a hose from the pump and puts it in the car. The hose makes a noise. Tom and Mia watch Dad.
+
+They see a man in a blue shirt. He works at the gas station. He smiles and says hello to Dad. He says, "How are you today? Do you need anything else?" Dad says, "No, thank you. Just the fuel." He pays the man and takes the hose out. He closes the door.
+
+He gets back in the car and says, "OK, we are ready to go. The car has fuel now. It is happy." He starts the car and drives away. Tom and Mia are happy too. They are going to the park to play. They say, "Yay, Dad! Yay, car!" They clap their hands.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big maze in the park. They want to go inside.
+
+"Let's go to the maze!" Lily says.
+
+"OK, but be careful. It looks scary," Ben says.
+
+They go to the maze. They walk and turn and walk and turn. They see many walls and dead ends. They cannot find the way out. They are lost.
+
+"Where are we?" Lily asks.
+
+"I don't know. This is a terrible maze. I don't like it," Ben says.
+
+They start to cry. They are scared and sad. They want to go home.
+
+Then, they hear a voice. It is Lily's mom. She is looking for them.
+
+"Lily! Ben! Where are you?" she calls.
+
+"Mom! Mom! We are here! Help us!" Lily and Ben shout.
+
+Lily's mom hears them. She follows their voice. She finds them in the maze. She hugs them and kisses them.
+
+"Are you OK? I was so worried. How did you get in here?" she asks.
+
+"We wanted to play in the maze. But it was terrible. We got lost. We are sorry, mom," Lily and Ben say.
+
+"It's OK. I'm glad you are safe. Next time, don't go to the maze without me. It is dangerous. Come on, let's go home," she says.
+
+She takes their hands and leads them out of the maze. They are happy to see the sun and the trees and the flowers. They say goodbye to the maze. They never want to go there again.
+Ben and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their toys. Ben has a red motorcycle. Sam has a blue car. They make noises and race them on the floor.
+
+One day, Sam wants to play with Ben's motorcycle. He asks Ben, "Can I have your motorcycle, please?"
+
+Ben says, "No, it is mine. You have your car. Go away."
+
+Sam is sad and angry. He waits for Ben to look away. Then he grabs the motorcycle and runs to his room.
+
+Ben sees Sam and shouts, "Hey, give it back! That is not yours!"
+
+He chases Sam to his room. Sam tries to close the door, but Ben pushes it open. They fight over the motorcycle. They pull and tug and yell.
+
+The motorcycle breaks in two. Ben and Sam are shocked. They look at the broken toy. They start to cry.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the broken motorcycle and the crying boys. She is very mad.
+
+She says, "What have you done? You are both clumsy and naughty. You broke Ben's toy. You did not share. You did not listen. You are in big trouble."
+
+She takes away their toys and sends them to bed. Ben and Sam are sorry, but it is too late. They have no toys and no fun. They have a bad day.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play together. They have a dog named Spot. Spot is loyal. He follows them everywhere.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben want to play dress-up. They go to their mom's closet. They find many clothes. They try on hats, scarves, dresses, and shoes. They laugh and have fun.
+
+Spot watches them. He wants to play too. He sees a coat on the floor. He thinks it is a toy. He grabs it with his teeth. He runs around the room. He shakes the coat.
+
+Anna and Ben see Spot. They are angry. They shout at him.
+
+"Spot, no! That is mom's coat! You are bad! Drop it now!"
+
+Spot is scared. He does not understand. He thinks they are playing. He runs away. He hides under the bed.
+
+Anna and Ben chase him. They try to get the coat. They pull and tug. They make a hole in the coat. They are sad. They know mom will be mad.
+
+They hear mom coming. They are afraid. They shut the closet door. They hope mom will not see.
+
+Mom opens the door. She sees the mess. She sees the coat. She is angry. She asks them what happened.
+
+Anna and Ben are sorry. They tell her the truth. They say they were playing dress-up. They say Spot took the coat. They say they tried to get it back. They say they are sorry.
+
+Mom is still angry. She tells them they should not take her clothes. She tells them they should be careful with Spot. She tells them they should say sorry to Spot too.
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They hug mom. They say they love her. They go to Spot. They pet him. They say they are sorry. They say they love him too.
+
+Spot wags his tail. He licks them. He forgives them. He is loyal. He still wants to play.
+Tom and Lily were twins who lived in a big house with many toys. They were rich, but they were not happy. They always wanted more and more things, and they never shared with anyone. They did not play with other children, or help their parents, or say thank you.
+
+One day, there was a big earthquake. The ground shook and the walls cracked. Tom and Lily were scared and ran to their parents. Their parents hugged them and told them to be calm. They said they had to leave the house and go to a safe place. They said they could only take a few things with them.
+
+Tom and Lily did not know what to take. They had so many toys, but they could not carry them all. They looked at their toys and sighed. They wished they had fewer toys and more friends. They wished they had been nicer and more grateful.
+
+They saw a boy and a girl outside their house. They were their neighbors, Sam and Anna. Sam and Anna did not have many toys, but they were happy. They always played together, and helped their parents, and said thank you. They had a small bag with some clothes and a book. They smiled and waved at Tom and Lily.
+
+Tom and Lily felt ashamed. They realized they had been selfish and greedy. They decided to change. They took only one toy each, and gave the rest to Sam and Anna. They said they were sorry and asked if they could be friends. Sam and Anna said yes and hugged them. They all went to the safe place together.
+
+The moral of the story is: Having many things does not make you happy. Sharing and being kind makes you happy.
+Sam is a big dog who likes to help his family. He has a job to use his nose to find things. He can find toys, socks, keys and more. He is very good at his job and his family is happy.
+
+One day, Sam smells something smelly in the yard. He follows the smell and finds a big hole. He digs in the hole and sees a skunk. The skunk is scared and sprays Sam with a smelly spray. Sam yelps and runs away.
+
+"Sam, what happened?" his mom asks. She sees Sam is wet and smelly. She puts him in the tub and washes him with soap and water. She tells him, "You are a good dog, but you should not dig in holes. You might find something smelly and bad."
+
+Sam feels sorry and nods. He does not like the skunk or the bath. He likes his job and his family. He hopes he will not smell the skunk again. He snuggles with his mom and feels better. He is a good dog.
+Lily was a curious cat who liked to explore new places. One day, she saw a hole in the fence and decided to go through it. She found herself in a big yard with many flowers and trees. She smelled something interesting and followed her nose.
+
+She came across a big dog who was sleeping under a shady tree. Lily wanted to see what the dog was like, so she crept closer and closer. She saw the dog's tail and thought it was a toy. She reached out her paw and touched it.
+
+The dog woke up with a loud bark and jumped up. He saw Lily and was angry. He chased her and tried to bite her. Lily was scared and ran away. She looked for the hole in the fence, but she could not find it. She was trapped in the yard with the dog.
+
+She hid behind a bush and hoped the dog would not see her. She heard the dog sniffing and growling. She wished she had not touched his tail. She wished she was back home with her family.
+
+Then she heard a friendly voice. It was a boy who lived in the house. He saw Lily and the dog and came to help. He called the dog and told him to stop. He picked up Lily and held her gently. He said, "Don't be afraid, little cat. I won't hurt you. What are you doing here?"
+
+Lily was relieved and grateful. She rubbed her head against the boy's cheek and purred. She could not reply, but she hoped the boy would understand. She was sorry for being curious and causing trouble. She wanted to go home, but she also liked the boy. He was kind and gentle. He stroked her fur and smiled. He said, "You are a pretty cat. Do you have a name? Do you have a home?"
+
+Lily nodded and meowed. She hoped the boy would find the hole in the fence and take her there. She also hoped he would come and visit her again. She liked him and his voice. She thought he was a good friend. She wondered if he liked cats. She wondered if he had a tail.
+Sara and Tom were playing with blocks in the living room. They liked to make towers and houses and cars with the blocks. Sara had a lot of blocks, but Tom only had a few. Sara did not want to share her blocks with Tom. She was selfish.
+
+"Give me some blocks, Sara," Tom said. "I want to make a big tower too."
+
+"No, they are mine," Sara said. "You have enough blocks. Go away."
+
+Tom was sad and angry. He wanted to play with Sara, but she was mean to him. He looked around and saw a spray bottle on the table. It had water inside. Tom had an idea. He took the spray bottle and sneaked behind Sara.
+
+"Hey, Sara, look at this!" Tom said. He sprayed water on Sara's blocks. The water made the blocks wet and slippery. Sara's tower fell down with a crash.
+
+"Tom, what did you do?" Sara shouted. "You ruined my tower! You are so bad!"
+
+Sara tried to pick up her blocks, but they were too wet. She could not make another tower. She started to cry.
+
+Tom felt sorry for Sara, but he also felt happy. He thought he taught Sara a lesson. He sprayed more water on the blocks. He made a pattern with the water. He liked the pattern. He did not care about Sara.
+
+But then, something happened. The air was cold. The water on the blocks started to freeze. The blocks became hard and icy. Tom could not move them anymore. He could not play with them anymore. He was stuck with frozen blocks.
+
+Tom realized he made a mistake. He wanted to play with the blocks, but he could not. He wanted to say sorry to Sara, but she did not want to talk to him. She was still crying. She was still mad at him.
+
+Tom was sad and cold. He wished he was not selfish. He wished he shared his blocks with Sara. He wished he did not spray water on the blocks. He wished he was nice to Sara. But it was too late. He had no blocks. He had no friend. He had no fun. He had a bad ending.
+Lily and Tom were playing on the farm. They liked to run and jump and see the animals. They saw cows and pigs and chickens and horses. They said hello to them and gave them some food.
+
+They saw a big pile of hay in the barn. It looked soft and cozy. They wanted to climb on it and make a fort. They asked their mom if they could.
+
+"Sure, you can play with the hay, but be careful. Don't go too high or too far. And watch out for the pitchfork. It is sharp and can hurt you," their mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded and ran to the barn. They grabbed some hay and started to build their fort. They made walls and a roof and a door. They put some hay inside to make a bed. They were having fun.
+
+They heard a neigh from outside. It was their friend, Brownie, the horse. He was cheerful and friendly. He wanted to play with them. He came to the barn and poked his head through the door.
+
+"Hi, Brownie," Lily and Tom said. "Do you want to see our fort?"
+
+Brownie nodded and walked in. He looked around and sniffed the hay. He seemed to like it. He took a bite and chewed it.
+
+"Hey, that's our fort, not your food," Lily said.
+
+"Sorry, I was hungry," Brownie said.
+
+Lily and Tom laughed. They didn't mind. They liked to share with Brownie. They invited him to join their fort. They made room for him and cuddled with him. They felt warm and happy.
+
+They played and talked and napped in their fort. They had a great day on the farm.
+Lila and Ben were friends who lived in a big city. They liked to play in the park, ride their bikes and draw pictures. One day, they found a big box in the park. They both wanted to play with it.
+
+"I saw it first!" Lila said. "It is my box!"
+
+"No, I saw it first!" Ben said. "It is my box!"
+
+They started to fight over the box. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They were not nice to each other.
+
+A man who was walking his dog saw them. He was thoughtful. He did not like to see them fight. He came over and said, "Hello, children. Why are you fighting?"
+
+They told him about the box. He said, "Why don't you share the box? You can both play with it. You can make it into a house, or a car, or a spaceship. You can have more fun together than alone."
+
+Lila and Ben thought about it. They realized he was right. They said sorry to each other. They thanked the man. They decided to share the box. They made it into a house. They played and laughed and had fun. They were friends again.
+Lily and Sam were best friends. They liked to play with toys, draw pictures and read books. One day, Lily's mom gave her a camera. It was a small camera that could take photos of anything.
+
+"Wow, a camera!" Sam said. "Can I see?"
+
+"Sure, here you go," Lily said. She handed the camera to Sam. Sam looked at the camera and pressed a button. It made a click sound.
+
+"What did you do?" Lily asked.
+
+"I took a photo of you," Sam said. He showed Lily the screen. Lily saw her face on the screen. She smiled.
+
+"That's me!" she said.
+
+"Do you want to take a photo of me?" Sam asked.
+
+Lily nodded. She took the camera from Sam and pointed it at him. But Sam was shy. He hid his face behind his hands.
+
+"No, no, no," he said. "I don't want a photo."
+
+"Why not?" Lily asked. "You are my friend. I want a photo of you."
+
+Sam peeked from behind his hands. He saw Lily's face. She looked sad.
+
+"Okay, okay," he said. "But only if you squeeze me."
+
+"Squeeze you?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, squeeze me. Like a hug," Sam said.
+
+Lily smiled. She put the camera on the table and ran to Sam. She wrapped her arms around him and squeezed him. Sam squeezed her back. They giggled.
+
+Lily picked up the camera again. She held it in front of them and pressed the button. It made a click sound.
+
+"Did you get it?" Sam asked.
+
+Lily looked at the screen. She saw their faces on the screen. They were smiling and hugging.
+
+"Yes, I got it," she said. "It's a perfect photo."
+
+They showed the photo to Lily's mom. She smiled and said, "What a lovely photo of you two. You are such good friends."
+
+Lily and Sam smiled and squeezed each other again. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily liked to play with their toy soldiers. They had many soldiers of different colors and sizes. They liked to make them display on the floor and pretend they were in a big army.
+
+One day, they decided to have a march with their soldiers. They lined them up in rows and columns and made them walk around the room. They made noises like drums and trumpets and shouted orders to their soldiers.
+
+But when they came to the rug, they saw a problem. The rug was deep and soft, and their soldiers could not walk on it. They sank into the rug and got stuck. Tom and Lily tried to pull them out, but they only made them sink deeper.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom said. "Our soldiers are trapped in the rug!"
+
+"What can we do?" Lily asked.
+
+They thought hard, and then they had an idea. They ran to the kitchen and got some spoons. They used the spoons to dig out their soldiers from the rug. They were careful not to hurt them or the rug.
+
+Soon, they had rescued all their soldiers. They were happy and proud. They made them display again on the floor and gave them a big clap.
+
+"Good job, soldiers!" Tom said.
+
+"You are brave and strong!" Lily said.
+
+They hugged their soldiers and continued to play. They decided to avoid the rug next time they had a march.
+Tom and Mia were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. But they did not like the big boy who was mean to them. He always took their toys and pushed them. He made them feel miserable.
+
+One day, the big boy saw Tom and Mia with a new toy. It was a bell that made a loud noise when you shook it. The big boy wanted the bell. He ran to Tom and Mia and snatched the bell from Mia's hand. He laughed and said, "This is mine now. You can't have it."
+
+Tom and Mia were sad and angry. They wanted their bell back. They asked the big boy to give it back, but he said no. He shook the bell and made fun of them. He said, "You are too small and weak. You can't do anything."
+
+Tom and Mia did not give up. They had an idea. They waited for the big boy to swing the bell near his foot. Then, Tom ran to him and kicked his foot hard. The big boy dropped the bell and cried out in pain. He said, "Ow! That hurts! Why did you do that?"
+
+Mia grabbed the bell and ran to Tom. They hugged and smiled. They said, "We did that because you are mean and rude. You can't take our things. You need to learn to share and be nice."
+
+The big boy felt sorry and ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry. I was wrong. Can I play with you and your bell?"
+
+Tom and Mia thought for a moment. They decided to give the big boy a chance. They said, "Okay, but you have to be gentle and kind. And you have to say please and thank you."
+
+The big boy nodded and smiled. He said, "Please, can I play with you and your bell?"
+
+Tom and Mia said, "Yes, you can. Here, you can shake the bell once. But then you have to give it back."
+
+The big boy shook the bell and said, "Thank you. This is a nice bell. It makes a loud noise."
+
+Tom and Mia said, "You're welcome. It is a nice bell. We like it too."
+
+They all played together with the bell and other toys. They had fun and became friends. They were not miserable anymore. They were happy.
+Lily was a famous chef. She loved to cook and eat good food. She made yummy dishes with eggs, cheese, bread, fruit, and more. She had a big kitchen with many pots, pans, spoons, and knives.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to make a new dish. She saw a big green fruit on the table. It was called an avocado. She had never eaten one before. She cut it open and saw a soft green part and a hard brown part. She threw away the hard part and scooped out the soft part. She mashed it with a fork and added some salt and lemon juice. She tasted it and smiled. It was creamy and tangy.
+
+She decided to make a sandwich with the avocado and some cheese and bread. She toasted the bread and spread the avocado on it. She added some cheese and another slice of bread. She cut it in half and took a big bite. It was delicious. She felt happy and proud.
+
+She wanted to share her sandwich with her friend Tom. She called him on the phone and asked him to come over. Tom liked to eat good food too. He was excited to try Lily's new dish. He came to her house and knocked on the door. Lily opened it and welcomed him. She showed him her sandwich and gave him a half. Tom took a bite and nodded. He liked it too. He said it was very good.
+
+They ate their sandwiches and talked. They said how much they enjoyed cooking and eating. They said they wanted to try more new foods. They said they were lucky to have each other as friends. They finished their sandwiches and felt full and happy. They thanked each other and hugged. They entered Lily's living room and played with her toys. They had a fun and tasty day.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the farm. They like to run and jump and see the animals. They see a big field of corn. The corn is tall and yellow and makes a nice sound when the wind blows.
+
+"Let's play catch in the corn!" Anna says. She picks up a ball and throws it to Ben.
+
+"OK!" Ben says. He catches the ball and throws it back to Anna. They laugh and have fun.
+
+But they do not see the farmer. The farmer is angry. He does not want the children to play in his corn. He thinks they will break it and make a mess. He has a big dog. The dog is loud and fast and has sharp teeth.
+
+"Hey, you kids! Get out of my corn!" the farmer shouts. He lets the dog go. The dog runs after Anna and Ben. It barks and growls and tries to catch them.
+
+Anna and Ben are scared. They drop the ball and run. They look for a way out of the corn. They do not know where to go. The dog is getting closer and closer.
+
+"Help! Help!" Anna and Ben cry.
+
+They see a fence. The fence is low and has a gate. They run to the gate and open it. They get out of the corn and close the gate. The dog cannot get through. It stops and barks and jumps at the fence.
+
+Anna and Ben are safe. They hug each other and breathe hard. They are glad they escaped the dog.
+
+"Are you OK?" Anna asks Ben.
+
+"Yes, I'm OK. Are you OK?" Ben asks Anna.
+
+"Yes, I'm OK. That was scary!" Anna says.
+
+"Let's go home. I don't want to play in the corn anymore," Ben says.
+
+"Me neither. Let's go home and tell Mom and Dad what happened," Anna says.
+
+They hold hands and walk away from the farm. They do not look back at the corn or the dog or the farmer. They just want to be home and safe.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hill with a path going up. Sara wanted to go up the path and see what was on the other side. Ben was scared. He thought the path was weird and dark.
+
+"Come on, Ben, let's go up the path!" Sara urged. "It will be fun!"
+
+"No, Sara, I don't want to go. The path is weird and dark. There might be monsters or snakes or spiders. I want to stay here and play on the swings." Ben said.
+
+Sara was sad. She wanted to go with Ben, but she also wanted to see the other side of the hill. She tried to make Ben change his mind.
+
+"Please, Ben, don't be scared. There are no monsters or snakes or spiders. The path is not weird and dark. It is just a path. Maybe there are flowers or birds or butterflies on the other side. Maybe there is a pond or a bridge or a tree house. We can have more fun there. Please, Ben, please!" Sara urged.
+
+Ben looked at Sara. He saw that she was sad and excited. He wanted to make her happy, but he also wanted to be safe. He did not know what to do. He looked at the path. He looked at the swings. He looked at Sara. He made a choice.
+
+"Okay, Sara, I will go with you. But you have to hold my hand and stay close to me. And if we see anything weird or scary, we have to run back to the swings. Okay?" Ben said.
+
+Sara smiled. She hugged Ben and took his hand. She was happy that he agreed to go with her. She was brave and curious. She wanted to see the other side of the hill.
+
+"Okay, Ben, I will hold your hand and stay close to you. And if we see anything weird or scary, we will run back to the swings. Okay?" Sara said.
+
+They walked up the path together. They did not see any monsters or snakes or spiders. They saw flowers and birds and butterflies. They saw a pond and a bridge and a tree house. They had more fun there. They were glad they went up the path. They were good friends.
+Ben likes to see symbols. Symbols are things that mean other things. Like a star means night, or a heart means love. Ben has a book with many symbols. He likes to open the book and see the symbols.
+
+One day, Ben sees a new symbol. It is on a sign by the road. It is a red circle with a line. Ben does not know what it means. He asks his mom. His mom says it means stop. It means do not go there. Ben thinks it is a strange symbol.
+
+Ben wants to see more symbols. He asks his mom to take him to the library. The library has many books with many symbols. Ben opens a book and sees a symbol he likes. It is a yellow smiley face. It means happy. Ben is happy to see the symbol. He shows it to his mom. His mom smiles too. She says it is a nice symbol. Ben agrees. He likes to see symbols.
+Tim was a very intelligent boy. He liked to learn new things and play with his toys. He had a toy car that could zoom very fast. He liked to zoom it around the floor and make vroom noises.
+
+One day, his mom baked some cookies. They smelled very good. Tim wanted to have a cookie, but his mom said he had to wait until after lunch. Tim was hungry and sad. He had an idea. He took his toy car and zoomed it to the kitchen. He saw the cookies on the table. He zoomed his car to the table and grabbed a cookie with his hand.
+
+But his mom saw him. She was not happy. She said, "Tim, you are a very intelligent boy, but you are also very naughty. You have to wait for your cookie. And you have to share with your sister. Now, give me the cookie and go back to your room."
+
+Tim felt bad. He knew he did something wrong. He gave the cookie to his mom and zoomed his car back to his room. He said sorry to his mom and his sister. He decided to wait for his cookie and play nicely with his toys. He learned his lesson. He was still a very intelligent boy, but he also wanted to be a good boy.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big pear tree. The pears are ripe and sweet. Sara and Ben pick some pears and put them in a basket.
+
+"Let's share the pears with our friends," Sara says.
+
+"Yes, let's do that," Ben agrees.
+
+They go to the playground and see their friends. They give some pears to Lily, Tom, and Mia. They are happy and say thank you.
+
+But Sara and Ben forget to give a pear to Sam. Sam is sad and angry. He thinks Sara and Ben do not like him.
+
+"Why don't you give me a pear?" Sam asks.
+
+Sara and Ben look at their basket. They see only one pear left.
+
+"Oh, we are sorry, Sam. We forget to give you a pear. We have only one pear left. Do you want it?" Sara says.
+
+Sam shakes his head. He does not want the pear. He wants Sara and Ben to be his friends.
+
+"No, I don't want the pear. I want you to be nice to me. You are not nice. You are mean," Sam says.
+
+Sara and Ben feel bad. They do not want to hurt Sam. They want to be his friends too.
+
+"We are sorry, Sam. We are not mean. We are your friends. We make a mistake. We forget to give you a pear. But we can share the pear. We can cut it in half. You can have one half and we can have the other half. Is that okay?" Ben says.
+
+Sam thinks for a moment. He sees Sara and Ben are sorry. He sees they want to share the pear. He sees they want to be his friends.
+
+"Okay, that is okay. I forgive you. We can share the pear. We can be friends," Sam says.
+
+Sara and Ben smile. They cut the pear in half. They give one half to Sam and eat the other half. They hug and say sorry. They are happy and play together.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not forget to be kind and fair to everyone. If you make a mistake, say sorry and try to fix it. Sharing is caring. Friendship is precious.
+Sara loved to soar in the sky with her kite. She made the kite with her dad from paper and sticks. It had a red tail and a big smile. Sara ran and ran and let the kite fly high. She felt happy and free.
+
+One day, Sara saw a big field of sunflowers. They were yellow and bright and tall. Sara wanted to see them up close. She ran to the field with her kite. She saw a fence with a sign. The sign had words she could not read. She did not care. She climbed over the fence and ran to the sunflowers.
+
+"Hello, sunflowers!" Sara said. "Do you like my kite?" She held the kite in her hand and waved it at the flowers. The flowers did not answer. They just nodded in the wind. Sara smiled and ran among them. She felt like she was in a yellow sea.
+
+But Sara did not see the farmer. He was angry. He did not like people in his field. He saw Sara and her kite. He shouted at her. "Hey, you! Get out of my field! That's my sunflower seed! You are scaring the birds!"
+
+Sara heard the farmer. She was scared. She dropped the kite and ran back to the fence. She climbed over it and ran to the road. She looked for her dad. He was waiting for her in the car. He saw her and opened the door.
+
+"Sara, what happened?" he asked. "Where is your kite?"
+
+Sara cried. She told him about the sunflowers and the farmer and the kite. She was sorry. She loved her kite.
+
+Dad hugged her. He was not mad. He was glad she was safe. He said, "Don't worry, Sara. We can make another kite. But next time, we have to be careful. We have to respect other people's things. And we have to read the signs. They are there for a reason."
+
+Sara nodded. She learned a lesson. She still loved to soar in the sky with her kite. But she also loved to read the signs.
+Ben and Mia were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make food with the pots and pans. Ben found a bottle of oil and poured some into a big pan. He said, "I will make a yummy cake with oil and flour and sugar."
+
+Mia saw the oil and said, "No, Ben, oil is not for cakes. Oil is for cars and machines. It will make the cake taste bad and make us sick." She tried to take the bottle from Ben, but he held it tight.
+
+They started to fight over the bottle. They pulled and pushed and shouted. The bottle slipped from their hands and fell on the floor. The oil spilled everywhere. It made the floor slippery and shiny.
+
+Ben and Mia slipped and slid on the oil. They could not stand up or walk. They felt uncomfortable and scared. They cried for help.
+
+Mom heard their cries and came to the kitchen. She saw the mess and was angry. She said, "What have you done? You have wasted the oil and made the kitchen dirty. You are in big trouble." She slapped her hand on the table to show how mad she was.
+
+Ben and Mia heard the slap and felt sorry. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We were playing and we did not mean to spill the oil. Please help us get up and clean the kitchen."
+
+Mom sighed and said, "Okay, I will help you, but you have to promise me to never play with oil again. Oil is not a toy. It is dangerous and wasteful. Do you understand?"
+
+Ben and Mia nodded and said, "We understand, Mom. We promise to never play with oil again. We love you, Mom."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "I love you too, Ben and Mia. Now let's get you out of this oily mess." She took their hands and helped them stand up. She gave them a hug and a kiss and said, "Next time, if you want to make a cake, ask me first. I will show you how to use the right ingredients and tools."
+
+Ben and Mia said, "Okay, Mom. Thank you, Mom. You are the best chef in the world."
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big dog. The dog was lost and scared. It had a collar with a name: Rex.
+
+"Let's help Rex," Lily said. "Maybe we can find his home."
+
+"OK," Tom said. "But we have to be careful. He might bite."
+
+They went near Rex and gave him some bread. Rex wagged his tail and licked their hands. He was happy. They looked at his collar. It had a phone number.
+
+"Let's call this number," Lily said. "Maybe it is Rex's owner."
+
+They found a phone booth and dialed the number. A voice answered.
+
+"Hello?"
+
+"Hi, we found your dog. His name is Rex. He is in the park. Can you come and get him?"
+
+"Thank you so much! I've been looking for him all day. I'll be there in five minutes. Where are you in the park?"
+
+"We are near the big slide. We'll wait for you."
+
+"OK, see you soon. And thank you again!"
+
+Lily and Tom hung up the phone and went back to Rex. They hugged him and told him his owner was coming. Rex barked and jumped. He was excited.
+
+But then, something bad happened. A thick fog came. It covered the park. Lily and Tom could not see anything. They could not see Rex. They could not see the slide. They could not see the phone booth. They could not see each other.
+
+They were scared and lost. They called for Rex. They called for each other. They called for help. But no one answered. No one came.
+
+The fog did not go away. Lily and Tom did not find Rex. Rex did not find his owner. They were all alone in the fog. They were all troubled. They were all sad. The end.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys. They have a big box of toys. They have dolls, cars, balls, and animals. They have a lion toy. The lion toy can ring. It has a bell on its tail.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben are playing with the lion toy. They make it run and jump and roar. They have fun. But then, they hear a noise. It is their mom. She says, "It is time for a nap, Lily and Ben. You are sleepy. Put away your toys and come to your beds."
+
+Lily and Ben do not want to nap. They want to play more. They say, "No, mom. We are not sleepy. We want to play with the lion. The lion is not sleepy. The lion can ring."
+
+Mom says, "Lily and Ben, you are very sleepy. You need to rest. The lion is also sleepy. The lion can ring later. Come on, let's go to your beds. I will read you a story."
+
+Lily and Ben sigh. They put away their toys. They take the lion with them. They go to their beds. Mom reads them a story. It is a story about a lion. The lion is brave and strong. The lion can ring. Lily and Ben listen to the story. They hug the lion. They close their eyes. They fall asleep. The lion falls asleep too. The lion does not ring. The lion snores.
+Ben and Lily are playing with tape. They like to stick it on things and make shapes. Ben has a big roll of tape and Lily has a small one.
+
+"Look, I made a star!" Ben says, showing Lily his tape on the wall. "Can you count the points?"
+
+Lily looks at the star and starts to count. "One, two, three, four, five. Five points!" she says proudly.
+
+"Good job, Lily!" Ben says. "Now it's your turn. What did you make?"
+
+Lily points to her tape on the floor. "I made a snake!" she says. "It is long and wiggly. Can you count the pieces?"
+
+Ben bends down and looks at the snake. He sees many pieces of tape joined together. He starts to count. "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. Ten pieces!" he says.
+
+"Wow, that's a lot of pieces!" Lily says. "You are good at counting, Ben!"
+
+"Thank you, Lily!" Ben says. "You are good at making shapes, Lily!"
+
+They smile at each other and hug. They are happy and healthy friends. They like to play with tape and count.
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had a small patch of dirt where they planted some seeds. They watered them every day and waited for them to grow.
+
+One day, Lily saw that her seeds had sprouted into tiny green plants. She was very happy and ran to show Max. "Look, Max, look! My seeds are growing!" she said.
+
+Max looked at his patch of dirt and saw nothing. He was very sad and envious of Lily. He wanted his seeds to grow too. He thought of a plan to make his seeds grow faster. He went to the kitchen and took a bottle of juice. He poured the juice all over his seeds, hoping that they would like it.
+
+But the juice was not good for the seeds. It was too sweet and sticky. It made the dirt hard and dry. The seeds could not breathe or drink. They did not grow at all. They died.
+
+The next day, Lily saw that her plants had grown bigger and had some flowers. She was very proud and ran to show Max. "Look, Max, look! My plants have flowers!" she said.
+
+Max looked at his patch of dirt and saw only brown and crusty. He was very angry and ashamed of his plan. He did not want to show Lily. He pushed her away and shouted, "Go away, Lily, go away! I don't want to see your plants!"
+
+Lily was very hurt and confused. She did not understand why Max was so mean to her. She ran away crying.
+
+Max felt bad for hurting Lily. He wished he had not poured juice on his seeds. He wished he had been happy for Lily. He wished he had asked her for help. He realized that he had been a bad brother. He wanted to say sorry to Lily, but he did not know how.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't be envious of others. Be happy for their success. Don't try to cheat or harm others. Be kind and honest. Ask for help when you need it. Say sorry when you make a mistake.
+Lily and Max love to play with their toy trains. They have many trains of different colors and sizes. They like to make tracks on the floor and pretend they are drivers.
+
+One day, Lily and Max find a new train in a box. It is a big purple train with a shiny engine. They are very excited and want to play with it.
+
+"Can I pick the purple train?" Lily asks Max.
+
+"No, I want to pick it. It is my turn," Max says.
+
+They start to argue and pull the train from each other. The train makes a loud noise and the engine falls off.
+
+"Oh no! We broke the purple train!" Lily and Max cry.
+
+They feel very sorry and sad. They hug each other and say they are sorry.
+
+"Let's fix the purple train together," Lily says.
+
+"OK, I will help you," Max says.
+
+They find some glue and stick the engine back to the train. They are very careful and gentle. They wait for the glue to dry and then test the train. It works again and makes a happy sound.
+
+"Yay! We fixed the purple train!" Lily and Max cheer.
+
+They play with the purple train and share it nicely. They have a lot of fun and are very happy. They love their purple train and each other.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her toys and read books. She had a big brother, Tom, who was always busy with his school and friends. Sometimes, Lily felt lonely and wished Tom would play with her more.
+
+One day, Tom had to go on a trip with his class. He packed his bag and said goodbye to Lily and his mom. Lily was sad and asked, "Where are you going, Tom?"
+
+Tom said, "I'm going to see the world, Lily. There are many places and people and things to learn. The world is big and wonderful."
+
+Lily said, "But isn't the world scary, too? There are bad people and monsters and noises. I don't want you to go, Tom. I want you to stay with me."
+
+Tom hugged Lily and said, "Don't be afraid, Lily. The world is not scary if you are brave and kind and curious. You can make friends and have fun and help others. And I will always come back to you, Lily. You are my sister and I love you."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I love you, too, Tom. Have a good trip and tell me everything when you come back."
+
+Tom said, "I will, Lily. And you can also see the world with your toys and books and imagination. You can be anything you want, Lily. You are smart and creative and beautiful."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Thank you, Tom. You are the best brother ever."
+
+Tom kissed Lily and said, "Bye, Lily. See you soon."
+
+Lily waved and said, "Bye, Tom. Have fun."
+
+Lily watched Tom leave and then went to her room. She picked up her favorite doll and said, "Let's go see the world, too." She opened a book and started to read. She felt happy and excited. She was not afraid of the world anymore. She was ready to explore and learn and grow.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They saw a big green lizard on the wall. Tom wanted to touch it, but Lily was scared.
+
+"Look, a lizard!" Tom said. "I want to climb and see it."
+
+"No, Tom, don't!" Lily said. "It might bite you or run away."
+
+Tom did not listen. He was brave and curious. He climbed on a chair and reached for the lizard. The lizard did not like that. It hissed and moved its tail.
+
+"Ouch!" Tom said. He fell off the chair and hurt his knee. He started to cry.
+
+Lily ran to him and hugged him. She was sorry for him. She said, "It's okay, Tom. I will get a band-aid for you. Next time, let's leave the lizard alone."
+
+Tom nodded. He learned his lesson. He said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister. And the lizard is not so fun after all."
+Ben and Lily were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they found a kite in the grass. It was red and blue and had a long tail.
+
+"Wow, a kite!" Ben said. "Let's fly it!"
+
+"OK!" Lily said. "But I want to hold it first."
+
+"No, I want to hold it first!" Ben said. "I saw it first!"
+
+They began to pull the kite. They did not share. They disagree.
+
+"Stop it!" Lily said. "You are hurting the kite!"
+
+"Give it to me!" Ben said. "It is mine!"
+
+They pulled harder and harder. The kite ripped. The tail fell off. The wind blew it away.
+
+They looked at the kite. It was broken. They felt sad. They felt mad.
+
+They blamed each other. They did not say sorry. They did not hug. They did not play.
+
+They went home. They were not friends. They were lonely. They missed the kite. They missed each other. The end.
+Anna and Tom were very happy. They moved to a new house with a big garden. They wanted to unpack their toys and play outside. The sun was bright and warm. The birds were singing. It was a peaceful day.
+
+"Look, Tom, I found my doll!" Anna said. She opened a box and took out her favorite toy. She hugged it and smiled.
+
+"Wow, Anna, she is very pretty!" Tom said. He opened another box and took out his truck. He made a loud noise with his mouth. "Vroom, vroom, I'm going to drive around the garden!"
+
+Anna and Tom ran outside with their toys. They had a lot of fun. They did not see the big dog that lived next door. The dog was angry and bored. He did not like children. He saw Anna and Tom and their toys. He wanted to bite them and break them.
+
+The dog jumped over the fence and ran towards Anna and Tom. He barked and growled. He was very fast and strong.
+
+"Help, help, a dog!" Anna screamed. She dropped her doll and ran to the house. The dog chased her and caught her. He bit her leg and made her bleed.
+
+"Anna, Anna, no!" Tom cried. He threw his truck at the dog and tried to save his sister. The dog turned and bit him too. He made him bleed.
+
+Anna and Tom were very scared and hurt. They cried and cried. The dog ran away with their toys. He tore them apart and made them dirty.
+
+Mom and Dad heard the noise and came outside. They saw Anna and Tom and the dog and the toys. They were very sad and angry. They called for help and took Anna and Tom to the hospital.
+
+The sun was still bright and warm. The birds were still singing. But it was not a peaceful day. It was a bad day.
+Ben and Mia are twins. They like to play with their toys, but they are very competitive. They always want to have the best toy, the most toy, or the toy that the other one has.
+
+One day, they find a big box in the living room. It has a bow and a tag that says "For Ben and Mia, from Grandma and Grandpa". They wonder what is inside. They run to the box and try to open it.
+
+"Let me do it!" Ben says. He pulls the bow hard.
+
+"No, I want to do it!" Mia says. She pushes Ben away.
+
+They start to fight over the box. They tug and push and shout. They rip the paper and the bow. They make a big mess.
+
+"Stop it, stop it!" Mom says. She comes into the living room and sees the fight. She is not happy. She takes the box away from them.
+
+"Ben and Mia, you are being very naughty. You are not sharing. You are not being grateful. You are not respecting your gift. You have to say sorry to each other and to Grandma and Grandpa. And you have to wait until tomorrow to see what is inside the box."
+
+Ben and Mia feel bad. They know they did wrong. They say sorry to each other and to Mom. They hug and make up. They wonder if they can still have the gift tomorrow. They hope it is something nice. They hope they can play with it together.
+Sara was very excited. Today she had a meeting with her best friend Lily. They wanted to play with their dolls and have a tea party. Sara had a surprise for Lily. She had made a new dress for her doll with her mom's help. She put the dress in a box and wrapped it with a pretty ribbon.
+
+She ran to the park where Lily was waiting for her. She saw Lily sitting on a bench with her doll. But she also saw something else. Next to Lily was another girl, holding another doll. Sara felt a pang in her chest. Who was that girl? Was she Lily's new friend?
+
+"Hi, Sara!" Lily said, waving at her. "This is Anna. She just moved here. She likes dolls too. Anna, this is Sara. She is my best friend."
+
+Sara forced a smile and said hello to Anna. She felt guilty for being jealous. Lily was just being nice to the new girl. Maybe they could all be friends. She gave Lily the box and said, "This is for you. It's a surprise."
+
+Lily opened the box and gasped. She took out the dress and held it up. It was pink and sparkly, with lace and flowers. It was the most beautiful dress she had ever seen. She hugged Sara and said, "Thank you, thank you, thank you! It's perfect! You are the best friend ever!"
+
+Sara felt happy again. She saw Anna looking at the dress with admiration. She decided to share her surprise. She said, "Do you want to try it on your doll, Anna? It might fit her too."
+
+Anna smiled and said, "Really? Can I? Thank you, Sara. You are very kind."
+
+The three girls played with their dolls and had a tea party. They laughed and talked and had fun. Sara learned that Anna liked the same things as her and Lily. She was glad she had met her. She realized that having a new friend was not a bad thing. It was a good surprise.
+Ben and Sam were friends who liked to play outside. They liked to run, jump, and climb on the trees. One day, they saw a big wall near their house. The wall was very high and had sharp things on top. Ben said, "I dare you to climb the wall and see what is on the other side." Sam said, "No, that is not safe. We might get hurt or lost. Mom and dad told us not to go near the wall." Ben said, "You are scared. I am not scared. I will climb the wall and show you." Sam said, "Don't do it, Ben. It is not a good idea."
+
+But Ben did not listen to Sam. He ran to the wall and started to climb. He was careful not to touch the sharp things. He reached the top and looked over. He saw a big road with many cars and trucks. He thought it was fun and wanted to go down and play. He did not see the sign that said, "Danger. Keep out." He did not hear Sam calling him to come back.
+
+Ben jumped down from the wall and ran to the road. He did not look both ways. He did not see the big truck that was coming fast. The truck did not see Ben either. It was too late to stop. The truck hit Ben and made a loud noise. Ben fell down and did not move. Sam saw everything and screamed. He ran to the wall and tried to climb back. He was scared and sad. He wished he had stopped Ben from doing the dare. He wished he had stayed on the safe side of the wall.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not do dangerous things to prove yourself. Listen to your friends and parents who care about you. Stay away from places that are not safe for you.
+Lily liked to polish the window with her cloth. She wanted to see the birds and the trees outside. She worked very hard to make the window shiny and clean. She was very slow and careful, because she did not want to miss any spots.
+
+One day, she saw something new in the window. It was a big red ball. It was bouncing and rolling on the grass. Lily wanted to play with the ball. She ran to the door and opened it. She forgot to put down her cloth.
+
+The ball saw Lily and came to her. It was very friendly and happy. It wanted to play with Lily too. It jumped and nudged her with its nose. Lily laughed and hugged the ball. She did not know it was a dog.
+
+The dog licked Lily's face and wagged its tail. It was very soft and warm. Lily liked the dog very much. She gave it her cloth to play with. The dog took the cloth and ran away. It was very fast and playful.
+
+Lily chased the dog and the cloth. She did not care about the window anymore. She had a new friend. She was very happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him two sticks for arms and a carrot for a nose. They were very proud of their snowman.
+
+"Look, Mommy, look!" Lily shouted. "We made a snowman!"
+
+Mommy came out of the house and smiled. "Wow, you did a great job, Lily and Ben! Your snowman is very handsome. But it's getting dark and cold. Let's go inside and have some hot chocolate."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and followed Mommy. They took off their boots and coats and mittens. They put them on the rack to dry. They sat on the couch and drank their hot chocolate. It was warm and sweet.
+
+"Mommy, can we read a story?" Ben asked.
+
+"Of course, my sweeties. What story do you want to hear?"
+
+Lily and Ben thought for a moment. Then they said together, "The three little pigs!"
+
+Mommy laughed and picked up the book. She read the story to Lily and Ben. They listened and made the sounds of the pigs and the wolf. They laughed and clapped.
+
+When the story was over, Mommy said, "It's time for bed, my loves. Let's brush your teeth and put on your pajamas."
+
+Lily and Ben did as Mommy said. They brushed their teeth and put on their pajamas. They hugged Mommy and said, "Good night, Mommy. We love you."
+
+Mommy kissed them and said, "Good night, Lily and Ben. I love you too. Sleep tight and sweet dreams."
+
+She tucked them in their beds and turned off the light. She left the door open a little. Lily and Ben closed their eyes and fell asleep. They dreamed of snowmen and pigs and wolves. They were happy and cozy.
+Sara and Ben like to play hide and seek in the garden. They take turns to count and hide. Sara counts to ten and then looks for Ben. She sees his feet under the big plant. She runs to the plant and says, "I found you!"
+
+Ben laughs and says, "You are good at finding me. Now it is my turn to count and your turn to hide." He covers his eyes and counts to ten. Sara runs to the shed and hides behind a dull bucket. She hopes Ben will not see her.
+
+Ben opens his eyes and looks for Sara. He does not see her under the plant or behind the tree. He walks to the shed and hears a noise. He peeks behind the dull bucket and sees Sara. He says, "I found you!"
+
+Sara smiles and says, "You are good at finding me too. Do you want to play again?" Ben nods and says, "Yes, let's play again. Hide and seek is fun!" They run to the garden and start a new game.
+Lily and Sam were on a big boat with Mom and Dad. They wanted to see the fish and the coral in the water. Mom said they had to pay some money to the boat man to borrow some masks and tubes. Lily and Sam gave the boat man some coins and he gave them the masks and tubes.
+
+"Thank you, boat man!" Lily and Sam said.
+
+"You're welcome, kids. Have fun!" the boat man said. "But be careful, don't touch the coral. It can hurt you and the fish."
+
+Lily and Sam nodded and put on their masks and tubes. They jumped into the water and saw many pretty colors and shapes. They saw blue fish, yellow fish, pink fish, and even a big green turtle. They saw the coral reef, which looked like a garden under the water. They were very happy and excited.
+
+They swam closer to the reef and saw more fish and coral. Lily saw a shiny thing on the reef. It looked like a star. She wanted to touch it and see what it was. She reached out her hand and moved towards the star.
+
+"Stop, Lily!" Sam shouted. "Don't touch it! It's a sea star. It can sting you!"
+
+But Lily did not hear him. She touched the star and felt a sharp pain in her finger. She screamed and pulled back her hand. She saw a red mark on her finger and blood in the water. She was scared and hurt.
+
+Sam swam to her and grabbed her hand. He saw the sea star on the reef. He remembered what the boat man said. He felt sorry for Lily and angry at the sea star.
+
+"Come on, Lily. Let's go back to the boat. Mom and Dad will help you." Sam said.
+
+They swam back to the boat and climbed up. They showed Mom and Dad their finger and told them what happened. Mom and Dad hugged them and cleaned their wound. They gave them a band-aid and a kiss.
+
+"You're very brave, Lily. But you have to be careful next time. The reef is pretty, but it can also be dangerous. You have to respect the animals and the plants that live there." Mom said.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mom. I didn't know. I won't touch the reef again." Lily said.
+
+"It's okay, Lily. You learned your lesson. And you have a good brother who helped you." Dad said.
+
+"Thank you, Sam. You're a good brother." Lily said.
+
+"You're welcome, Lily. You're a good sister." Sam said.
+
+They hugged each other and smiled. They still liked the reef, but they knew how to pay attention and be safe. They enjoyed the rest of the day on the boat and saw more pretty things in the water.
+Anna loves to bake with her mom. They make cookies, cakes, and pies. Anna likes to mix the flour, sugar, and eggs in a big bowl. She also likes to roll the dough and cut out shapes with cookie cutters.
+
+One day, Anna and her mom decide to bake some palm cookies. They are cookies shaped like palms, with fingers and nails. Anna thinks they are adorable. She helps her mom put the dough on a tray and put it in the oven.
+
+"Mom, can I decorate the cookies?" Anna asks.
+
+"Sure, honey. We have some icing and sprinkles. You can make the palms look pretty," her mom says.
+
+Anna is very happy. She takes a tube of icing and squeezes it on the cookies. She makes eyes, noses, mouths, and hair. She also adds some sprinkles for color. She makes some palms look like her mom, her dad, her brother, and herself. She makes some palms look like animals, like a cat, a dog, a bird, and a fish.
+
+"Look, mom, I made a palm family and a palm zoo!" Anna says.
+
+Her mom smiles and hugs her. "You are very creative, Anna. Your palm cookies are adorable. And I'm sure they are delicious too. Let's wait for them to cool down and then we can eat them."
+
+Anna nods and hugs her mom back. She is very proud of her palm cookies. She can't wait to share them with her family and friends. She thinks baking is fun and easy. She wants to bake more things with her mom.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big tent in the park. It is red and blue and has stars on it.
+
+"Wow, look at the tent!" Lily says. "Can we go inside?"
+
+"Let's ask mom and dad first," Ben says. They run to their parents, who are sitting on a bench. "Mom, dad, can we go in the tent?"
+
+"Sure, but be careful and don't stay too long," mom says. "It might be hot inside."
+
+Lily and Ben say thank you and run to the tent. They unzip the door and crawl inside. It is dark and cool inside. They see a big ball and some toys.
+
+"Look, a ball!" Lily says. She picks up the ball and throws it to Ben. Ben catches it and throws it back. They play catch for a while, laughing and having fun.
+
+Then, Lily has an idea. "Let's spin the ball!" she says. She puts the ball on the floor and spins it with her hand. The ball spins faster and faster, making a funny noise.
+
+"Wow, that's cool!" Ben says. He spins the ball too. They watch the ball spin and spin, until they feel dizzy.
+
+"Whoa, I feel dizzy!" Lily says. She holds her head and sits down.
+
+"Me too!" Ben says. He lies down and closes his eyes.
+
+They stay in the tent for a while, feeling dizzy and sleepy. Then, they hear their parents calling them.
+
+"Lily, Ben, time to go home!" mom says.
+
+"OK, mom," Lily says. She opens her eyes and stands up. She feels better now.
+
+"Me too," Ben says. He stands up too and grabs the ball. They zip the door and go out of the tent.
+
+They say goodbye to the tent and the ball and run to their parents. They hug them and tell them about their fun in the tent.
+
+"Sounds like you had a great time," dad says. "But next time, don't spin the ball too much. It can make you dizzy."
+
+"OK, dad," Lily and Ben say. They nod and smile. They are happy and tired. They go home with their parents, holding hands.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the garden. They have a big box and some old clothes. They pretend the box is a car and the clothes are costumes. Anna is the driver and Ben is the passenger.
+
+"Where are we going, Anna?" Ben asks.
+
+"We are going to the zoo, Ben. We will see lions and monkeys and elephants," Anna says.
+
+She holds a key in her hand and makes a vroom-vroom sound. She puts the key in the box and turns it.
+
+"Oops!" Anna says. "The key is stuck. I can't take it out."
+
+Ben tries to help. He pulls the key with his fingers. But it does not move.
+
+"What can we do, Anna?" Ben says.
+
+Anna thinks. She has an idea.
+
+"I know, Ben. We can sneeze. Maybe the key will come out if we sneeze hard," Anna says.
+
+She is enthusiastic. She likes to sneeze. She tickles her nose with a feather. She feels a tickle in her nose. She sneezes.
+
+"Achoo!"
+
+The key flies out of the box. It lands on the grass.
+
+"Yay! We did it, Ben. We got the key out," Anna says.
+
+She picks up the key and gives it to Ben.
+
+"Thank you, Anna. You are very smart and brave," Ben says.
+
+He puts the key in his pocket.
+
+"Let's go to the zoo, Anna. Maybe we will see a sneezing lion," Ben says.
+
+He laughs. Anna laughs too. They get in the box and drive away. They are happy. They have fun.
+Tom and Anna were playing in the garden. They saw a big ladder leaning on the wall. They were eager to climb it and see what was on the other side.
+
+"Let's go up the ladder!" Tom said.
+
+"OK, but be careful!" Anna said.
+
+They took turns to climb the ladder, holding on to the rungs. When they reached the top, they looked over the wall. They saw a lot of flowers, trees and birds. They also saw a man working in the garden.
+
+"Hello!" Tom shouted.
+
+The man looked up and saw the children. He smiled and waved.
+
+"Hello, who are you?" he asked.
+
+"We are Tom and Anna. We live next door. We climbed the ladder to see your garden. It is very pretty!" Tom replied.
+
+"Thank you. I am Mr. Lee. I like gardening. Do you want to come down and see my flowers?" he offered.
+
+"Yes, please!" Anna said.
+
+They climbed down the ladder and followed Mr. Lee. He showed them his roses, tulips and sunflowers. He also gave them some strawberries to eat. They thanked him and said goodbye.
+
+They went back to their garden, happy and full. They agreed that climbing the ladder was a good idea. They had made a new friend and seen a beautiful garden.
+Lily and Tom are twins. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big stable near their house. They want to go inside and see the animals.
+
+They walk to the stable and open the door. They see many cows, horses, sheep and pigs. They also see a lot of hay, straw and poop. The stable is very smelly. Lily and Tom cover their noses.
+
+"Wow, look at all the animals!" Tom says. "They are so big and furry!"
+
+"Yes, they are!" Lily says. "But they are also very loud and dirty!"
+
+They go closer to the animals and try to touch them. The cows moo, the horses neigh, the sheep baa and the pigs oink. The animals are friendly, but they also push and nudge Lily and Tom with their noses and mouths.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Tom says. "You are tickling me!"
+
+"Ouch, that hurts!" Lily says. "You are biting me!"
+
+Lily and Tom run away from the animals and back to the door. They are scared and want to go home.
+
+"Let's go, Tom!" Lily says. "This stable is too smelly and noisy!"
+
+"OK, Lily!" Tom says. "This stable is not fun!"
+
+They leave the stable and run back to their house. They tell their mom and dad what they saw. Their mom and dad laugh and hug them.
+
+"Maybe next time, you can visit the stable with us," their mom says. "We can show you how to feed and pet the animals."
+
+"Maybe," Lily and Tom say. "But only if the stable is not so smelly!"
+Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw many things: trees, flowers, birds, dogs. They liked the view of the park. It was green and pretty.
+
+But then Ben fell down. He hurt his knee. It was red and bleeding. He cried. Lila ran to him. She said, "Don't cry, Ben. I will help you."
+
+She took a tissue from her pocket. She wiped his knee. She said, "It will heal soon. You are brave." She gave him a hug. He smiled.
+
+They went to the bench. They saw a lady with a basket. She said, "Hello, children. Do you want some cookies?" They said, "Yes, please." She gave them each a cookie. They said, "Thank you."
+
+They ate the cookies. They felt better. They said, "Let's play some more." They ran and jumped and slid. They had fun in the park. They liked the view. It was green and pretty.
+Anna liked to act. She liked to pretend she was a princess, a doctor, or a lion. She liked to make funny faces and voices. She liked to make her friends and family laugh.
+
+One day, Anna's teacher said they would have a special class. They would learn how to act. Anna was very happy. She wanted to show her teacher and her classmates how good she was at acting.
+
+The teacher told them to sit in a circle. She said they would play a game. She would say a word, and they would have to act like that word. For example, if she said "happy", they would have to smile and clap. If she said "sad", they would have to cry and frown.
+
+Anna was ready. She waited for her turn. The teacher said "angry". Anna made a big scowl and crossed her arms. She growled and stomped her feet. The teacher and the other kids clapped. Anna felt proud.
+
+The teacher said "surprised". Anna opened her eyes and mouth wide. She gasped and jumped. The teacher and the other kids clapped. Anna felt happy.
+
+The teacher said "confused". Anna did not know what to do. She looked around and saw the other kids acting. Some of them scratched their heads. Some of them shrugged their shoulders. Some of them twisted their faces. Anna did not understand. She felt confused.
+
+She asked the teacher, "What is confused?" The teacher smiled and said, "Confused is when you don't know something, or when something is hard to figure out. Like when you don't know the answer to a question, or when you don't know where to go, or when you don't know how to act."
+
+Anna nodded. She said, "Oh, I see. Confused is like me right now." The teacher and the other kids laughed. They said, "Yes, Anna, you are very good at acting confused. You are a great actor." Anna smiled. She felt better. She liked to act. She liked to learn new words. She liked her class.
+Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the park and look for bugs and flowers. One day, they found a big tree with a hole in it. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Let's go in," Tom said. "Maybe there is a secret in there."
+
+Lily was scared. She did not like dark places. She thought there might be spiders or snakes in the hole. She shook her head.
+
+"No, Tom, I don't want to go in. It is too dark and scary."
+
+Tom looked at Lily. He saw that she was scared. He wanted to make her feel better.
+
+"Come on, Lily, don't be scared. I will go with you. We can be brave together. Maybe we will find something fun or shiny in there. Please, Lily, let's go in."
+
+Lily looked at Tom. She saw that he was excited. He wanted to see the secret in the hole. She did not want to make him sad.
+
+"Okay, Tom, I will go with you. But we have to be careful and quiet. And we have to come out soon."
+
+Tom smiled. He took Lily's hand and they walked to the hole. They bent down and crawled inside. It was dark and dusty. They could not see much. They felt around with their hands and feet.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found something!" Tom said. He held up a small box. It was old and rusty. He opened it and saw a shiny necklace. It had a blue stone that sparkled.
+
+"Wow, Tom, that is pretty!" Lily said. She touched the necklace. It felt cold and smooth.
+
+"Maybe it belongs to a fairy or a princess," Tom said. "Maybe it is magic."
+
+"Maybe," Lily said. She looked around. She saw a small window in the hole. She saw the sun and the sky. She felt a breeze.
+
+"Tom, I think we should go out now. It is getting late. And we have to settle for dinner soon."
+
+Tom nodded. He closed the box and put it in his pocket.
+
+"Okay, Lily, let's go out. But we have to keep this a secret. It is our secret. No one else can know."
+
+Lily agreed. They crawled out of the hole and ran to the park gate. They saw their moms waiting for them.
+
+"Hi, Lily, hi, Tom, did you have fun?" their moms asked.
+
+"Yes, we did," Lily and Tom said. They smiled at each other. They had a secret. They had been brave. They had found something shiny. They were happy.
+Sara and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They had a lot of fun. But they did not drink any water. They were very thirsty.
+
+"Look, there is a lemonade stand!" Sara said. "Let's go and buy some lemonade. It is sweet and cold."
+
+"OK, let's go!" Tom said. They ran to the lemonade stand. They saw a boy selling lemonade. He had a big jar and some cups.
+
+"Hello, can we have some lemonade, please?" Sara asked.
+
+"Sure, that will be one dollar each," the boy said.
+
+Sara and Tom gave him two dollars. The boy poured some lemonade into two cups and handed them to Sara and Tom.
+
+"Thank you!" Sara and Tom said. They took a sip of the lemonade.
+
+But the lemonade was not sweet and cold. It was sour and warm. It tasted like a bad lemon.
+
+"Yuck! This lemonade is awful!" Sara said. She made a face.
+
+"Me too! This lemonade is terrible!" Tom said. He spat out the lemonade.
+
+They gave back the cups to the boy.
+
+"Hey, what's wrong with the lemonade?" the boy asked.
+
+"It's sour and warm. It's not good. We want our money back," Sara said.
+
+"No, you can't have your money back. You already drank some of the lemonade. It's not my fault. You should have tasted it before you bought it," the boy said.
+
+He refused to give them their money back. He was mean and greedy.
+
+Sara and Tom were angry and sad. They had no money and no lemonade. They were still thirsty.
+
+They walked away from the lemonade stand. They felt sick and tired. They did not want to play anymore. They wanted to go home.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be careful when you buy something. Don't trust strangers. Always check the quality before you pay.
+Tom is a squirrel. He likes to do many things. He likes to run, jump, play and find nuts. Nuts are his favorite food. He likes to eat them and store them for winter.
+
+One day, he sees a big nut on a tree. He wants to have it. He climbs up the tree and reaches for the nut. But the nut is not a nut. It is a ball. A clear ball. Tom is confused. He touches the ball. It is hard and smooth. He cannot eat it.
+
+"Hello, squirrel!" a voice says. Tom looks around. He sees a girl. She is holding a string. The string is tied to the ball. The ball is her toy. She smiles at Tom.
+
+"Sorry, this is not a nut. This is a balloon. I like to play with it. Do you want to play with me?" the girl asks.
+
+Tom is curious. He has never played with a balloon before. He nods. The girl laughs. She lets go of the string. The balloon flies up in the air. Tom follows it with his eyes. He thinks it is fun.
+
+The girl and Tom play with the balloon for a while. They have a good time. Then Tom says goodbye. He thanks the girl for sharing her toy. He goes back to find real nuts. He is happy. He has made a new friend.
+Lily and Sam liked to play pretend. They had many toys and costumes to make up stories. One day, they decided to be superheroes and save the world from bad guys.
+
+Lily put on a red cape and a mask with stars. She said, "I am Star Girl, and I have super powers. I can fly and shoot stars from my hands." Sam put on a blue shirt and a mask with stripes. He said, "I am Stripe Boy, and I have super speed. I can run and jump very fast."
+
+They ran around the room, pretending to fight bad guys. They used pillows, books, and stuffed animals as weapons. They were very creative and had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they heard a loud noise from the kitchen. It was their mom, who was cooking. She yelled, "Lily and Sam, stop making so much noise! You are making a mess and I need to concentrate. Come and help me set the table for lunch."
+
+Lily and Sam stopped playing and looked at each other. They felt sorry for making their mom angry. They took off their masks and capes and said, "Sorry, mom. We were just playing pretend. We will help you now."
+
+They went to the kitchen and helped their mom set the table. They told her about their superhero game and how they saved the world. Their mom smiled and said, "That sounds like a fun game. You are very creative and imaginative. But next time, please play more quietly and don't make a mess. OK?"
+
+Lily and Sam nodded and said, "OK, mom. We love you." They hugged their mom and sat down to eat lunch. They still felt like superheroes, but they also knew how to be good kids.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big dog with a vest. The vest had a sign that said "Do not touch". The dog looked friendly, but it was a powerful dog. It could bite or hurt someone.
+
+"Let's go and pet the dog!" Lily said. She liked animals and wanted to make friends with the dog.
+
+"No, Lily, we can't!" Tom said. He was scared of the dog and remembered the sign. "The sign says 'Do not touch'. The dog is not for playing. It is a working dog. It helps people who can't see or hear or walk. We have to leave it alone."
+
+"But it looks so nice and soft!" Lily said. She did not listen to Tom. She ran towards the dog and tried to touch its fur.
+
+The dog barked loudly and showed its teeth. It did not like strangers touching it. It was trying to warn Lily to stay away. Lily screamed and ran back to Tom. She was scared and sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom, you were right. The dog was not for playing. It was a powerful dog. It could have hurt me. I should have listened to you." Lily said.
+
+"It's okay, Lily, I'm glad you are safe. Next time, we have to be careful and respect the signs. The signs are there to help us and the dog. The dog is not a bad dog. It is just doing its job. Maybe we can find another dog that is for playing. A dog that likes children and has no vest." Tom said.
+
+They hugged and went to look for another dog. They learned their lesson and had fun.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. But their favorite thing is the photo of their mom and dad. The photo is on the wall, above their bed.
+
+One day, Sara has an idea. She wants to look at the photo more closely. She asks Ben to help her. "Ben, can you lift me up? I want to see the photo better."
+
+Ben nods. He is a good brother. He puts his hands on Sara's waist and lifts her up. Sara reaches for the photo. She is nervous. She does not want to drop it or break it. She holds it gently and smiles.
+
+"Look, Ben, look! Mom and dad are so happy. They are hugging and laughing. They love us very much."
+
+Ben looks up and sees the photo. He smiles too. He loves mom and dad. He is proud of Sara. She is brave and careful. He says, "Yes, Sara, they are happy. And we are happy too. We have a good family."
+
+He lowers Sara down and puts her on the bed. They hug each other and the photo. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their ball. They saw a deer near the trees. The deer was filthy. It had mud and leaves on its fur.
+
+"Look, a deer!" Tom said. "Let's go and say hello."
+
+"OK, but be careful. Don't scare it," Lily said.
+
+They walked slowly to the deer. The deer looked at them with big eyes. It did not run away.
+
+"Hi, deer. You are very pretty," Lily said. She reached out her hand to touch the deer.
+
+"Wait, Lily. The deer is filthy. You need to remove the mud and leaves first," Tom said. He picked up a stick and tried to brush the deer's fur.
+
+The deer did not like the stick. It made a loud noise and kicked the stick away. It ran to the trees.
+
+"Oops, sorry, deer. We just wanted to help," Tom said.
+
+"Bye, deer. Maybe we can play another day," Lily said.
+
+They went back to their ball. They learned that some animals do not like to be touched. They also learned a new word: filthy.
+Lily was very happy. It was her birthday and she had a big cake and many balloons. She also had many gifts from her family and friends. She wanted to open them all and see what was inside.
+
+She opened the first gift. It was a book with many pictures and words. She liked books, but she wanted something else. She opened the second gift. It was a dress with flowers and ribbons. She liked dresses, but she wanted something else. She opened the third gift. It was a toy!
+
+Lily loved toys. She looked at the toy and smiled. It was a doll with long hair and a pink dress. She had seen this doll in the store, but it was very expensive and rare. She had wished for this doll many times, but she did not think she would get it.
+
+"Wow, Lily, you are so lucky!" said her friend Mia, who was at the party. "That is the best toy ever! Can I play with it?"
+
+Lily hugged the doll and shook her head. "No, Mia, this is my toy. It is my birthday and this is my gift. You can play with the other toys, but not this one."
+
+Mia was sad and angry. She wanted to play with the doll too. She thought Lily was not a good friend. She waited until Lily was busy with the cake and the balloons. Then she sneaked to the table where the gifts were. She grabbed the doll and ran away.
+
+Lily did not notice at first. She was having fun with the cake and the balloons. But then she wanted to play with her doll again. She looked for it on the table, but it was not there. She looked around the room, but it was not there. She started to cry.
+
+"Where is my toy? Where is my doll?" she sobbed.
+
+Her mom and dad heard her cry and came to her. They asked her what was wrong. She told them that her doll was gone. They looked for it too, but they could not find it. They asked the other kids if they had seen it, but they said no.
+
+Then they saw Mia. She was hiding behind the couch with the doll in her hands. She looked guilty and scared. They went to her and asked her why she had taken the doll. She said she was sorry and that she just wanted to play with it.
+
+They took the doll from her and gave it back to Lily. They told her that it was not nice to take things that did not belong to her. They told her to apologize to Lily and to share the toys. They also told Lily to forgive Mia and to be a good friend.
+
+Lily and Mia hugged and said they were sorry. They decided to play with the doll together. They also played with the other toys and had fun. They learned that toys are more fun when you share them and that friends are more important than toys.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors. They can make houses, cars, towers and more.
+
+One day, they want to make a big tower. They put many blocks on top of each other. The tower is very tall and pretty. Tom and Sam are happy.
+
+But then, they see only one red block left. They both want the red block. They say, "I want it! I want it!" They pull the red block from each other. They pull hard.
+
+The red block splits in two. The tower falls down. The blocks make a loud noise. Tom and Sam are sad and angry. They say, "You did it! You did it!" They push each other.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She comes to see what is wrong. She sees the broken block, the fallen tower and the crying boys. She says, "Oh no! What happened? Why are you fighting?"
+
+Tom and Sam tell Mom what happened. They blame each other. Mom says, "You are both wrong. You should share the block and the tower. You should not fight. You should say sorry and be friends again."
+
+Tom and Sam look at each other. They feel sorry. They say, "Sorry, sorry." They hug each other. They pick up the blocks and the broken block. They say, "Let's make a new tower. We can use both parts of the red block. We can make it together."
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "That's good. I'm proud of you. You are good friends." She helps them make a new tower. The tower is bigger and prettier than before. Tom and Sam are happy. They say, "Thank you, Mom. Thank you, friend." They play with the tower and the blocks. They have fun.
+Lily liked to read books. She had many books in her room. Some books had pictures, some books had words. Lily liked to read both kinds of books. Her favorite book was a novel. A novel was a long book with many words and a story. Lily liked the story in her novel. It was about a girl who went on an adventure.
+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her mom. She brought her novel with her. She wanted to read it under a tree. She found a big tree with green leaves. She sat down and opened her novel. She read about the girl who met a dragon. The dragon was green and friendly. Lily wished she could meet a dragon too.
+
+"Hello, what are you reading?" a voice said. Lily looked up and saw a boy. The boy was holding a book too. His book had a picture of a spaceship on the cover. Lily smiled and said, "I'm reading a novel. It's about a girl and a dragon. What are you reading?"
+
+"I'm reading a book about space. It's about a boy and an alien. They go on a mission to save the galaxy. Do you like space?" the boy said.
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, I like space. Space is cool. Do you like dragons?"
+
+The boy nodded and said, "Yes, I like dragons. Dragons are cool. Can I see your novel?"
+
+Lily said, "Sure, you can see my novel. Can I see your book?"
+
+The boy said, "Sure, you can see my book."
+
+They swapped books and looked at them. They liked each other's books. They decided to read them together. They became friends. They liked to read books and to meet new people. They had fun in the park.
+Anna and Ben are playing with a toy car. The car can move by itself when they put a battery inside. Anna has a new battery and she wants to try it.
+
+"Look, Ben, I have a new battery. Let's put it in the car and see how fast it goes!" Anna says.
+
+"OK, Anna, but be careful. Don't push the car too hard or it will break." Ben says.
+
+They open the car and put the new battery inside. Then they close the car and turn it on. The car makes a loud noise and starts to move.
+
+"Wow, it's so fast!" Anna says. "Let's race it with your car!"
+
+Ben has an old battery in his car. His car is slower than Anna's car. He tries to catch up with her car, but he can't.
+
+"Anna, wait for me!" Ben says.
+
+Anna laughs and pushes her car faster. She is having fun. She does not see the big rock in front of her car. Her car hits the rock and flips over. The battery falls out and rolls away.
+
+"Oh no, Anna, your car is broken!" Ben says. He runs to help her.
+
+Anna is sad. She picks up her car and sees a big dent on it. She looks for the battery, but she can't find it.
+
+"Where is my battery?" Anna says. "I need my battery!"
+
+Ben sees the battery under a bush. He is smart. He has an idea.
+
+"Anna, I found your battery!" Ben says. He picks up the battery and brings it to her.
+
+"Thank you, Ben, you are so kind!" Anna says. She hugs him.
+
+"Let's share the battery, Anna. We can take turns to use it in our cars. Then we can both have fun." Ben says.
+
+"OK, Ben, that's a good idea. You are so smart!" Anna says.
+
+They put the battery in Ben's car and play together. They are happy. They are friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. Lily saw a big puddle of water. She wanted to splash in it.
+
+"Look, Ben, a puddle!" she said. "Let's go splash!"
+
+Ben shook his head. He saw a sign next to the puddle. The sign had a picture of a foot and a red line across it. He knew what that meant.
+
+"No, Lily, we can't splash in the puddle. The sign says no. It is bad for our feet. It might make them hurt or sick. We have to listen to the sign. It is warning us."
+
+Lily did not care about the sign. She thought it was silly. She wanted to have fun. She ran to the puddle and jumped in. She felt the water splash on her legs and face. She laughed.
+
+"Come on, Ben, it is fun! Don't be scared!"
+
+Ben felt frustrated. He did not want to be scared. He wanted to play with Lily. But he also did not want to be bad. He did not want to get in trouble. He did not want to hurt his feet.
+
+"Lily, please, come out of the puddle. It is not fun. It is dirty. The sign is right. We have to be careful. Please, Lily, listen to me."
+
+Lily did not listen to Ben. She kept splashing in the puddle. She did not see the big rock under the water. She stepped on it and hurt her foot. She cried out in pain.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! My foot, my foot! It hurts!"
+
+Ben ran to Lily. He saw her foot bleeding. He felt sorry for her. He helped her out of the puddle. He hugged her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I tried to warn you. The puddle was bad. The sign was right. Are you okay?"
+
+Lily felt sorry too. She realized she was wrong. She should have listened to Ben. He was a good friend. He cared about her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. You were right. The puddle was bad. The sign was right. I was silly. Thank you for helping me. You are a good friend. I love you."
+
+Ben smiled. He loved Lily too. He took her hand and walked with her to find their mom. He hoped her foot would be okay. He hoped they could still play in the park. But not in the puddle. Never in the puddle.
+Anna and Ben were going on a trip with Mom and Dad. They packed their luggage with clothes, toys and books. They were very excited to see new places and have fun.
+
+But when they got to the airport, they saw many people looking sad and angry. The sky was gloomy and it was raining hard. Mom and Dad checked the big board and said, "Oh no, our flight is delayed. We have to wait for a long time."
+
+Anna and Ben felt disappointed and bored. They wanted to fly in the big plane and see the clouds. They did not like the noisy and crowded airport. They asked Mom and Dad, "When can we go?"
+
+Mom and Dad tried to cheer them up. They said, "We don't know when we can go, but we can still have fun here. Let's play a game. We can pretend that our luggage is a car and we can drive around the airport. We can also look for different things and colors and count them. Maybe we can find some snacks and books too."
+
+Anna and Ben liked the idea. They said, "OK, let's play!" They took their luggage and started to drive around the airport. They saw many people, planes, signs and shops. They counted how many red things, blue things, yellow things and green things they could find. They also found some cookies, juice and stickers. They had fun and forgot about the rain and the delay.
+
+After a while, Mom and Dad said, "Guess what, kids? Our flight is ready. We can go now!" Anna and Ben were happy and surprised. They said, "Yay, we can go!"

+
+One day, he goes to the shop with his mom. He sees a big robot. The robot is tough. It can walk, talk, and shoot. Ben wants the robot. He asks his mom to buy it for him. But his mom says no. She says the robot is too expensive. And too loud. And too scary.
+
+Ben is sad. He cries. He does not want to leave the shop. He does not want any other toy. He only wants the tough robot. His mom tries to make him happy. She says they can buy a cake. Or a balloon. Or a sticker. But Ben does not care. He only wants the tough robot.

+
+Ben is happy. He opens the box. He sees the tough robot. He hugs the tough robot. He thanks the truck driver. He does not know who sent him the gift. Maybe it was his mom. Maybe it was his dad. Maybe it was a fairy. He does not care. He only cares about his tough robot. He plays with his tough robot. He walks, talks, and shoots with his tough robot. He has a lot of fun with his tough robot. He loves his tough robot.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to make up stories and pretend they were different animals. Lily was a cat and Ben was a dog. They chased each other and made funny noises.
+
+Lily saw a cup on the table. It was her mom's cup. She liked the cup because it had a picture of a flower on it. She wanted to play with the cup. She took the cup and ran to the couch. She hid the cup under a soft pillow. She thought Ben would not find it.

They said they were sorry.
+
+Their mom was not happy. She told them they should not play with her cup. She said the cup was not a toy. She said the cup was fragile and could break. She said they could hurt themselves or make a spill. She said they should play with their own toys. She said they should respect her things. She said they should be careful and honest.
+
+Lily and Ben understood. They said they were sorry again. They hugged their mom and gave her the cup. They helped her clean up the mess. They learned their lesson. They did not play with the cup anymore. They played with their own toys. They had fun and did not hide anything. They were good and happy.

+They smiled at each other and went to the living room. Tom saw his dad's face in the mirror. He had a lot of hair on his chin and cheeks. He looked ugly.
+
+"Dad, why do you have hair on your face?" he asked. "Don't you use the razor?"
+
+His dad laughed and said, "I do, son, but not every day. Sometimes I like to have a beard. It makes me look different. Do you like it?"
+
+Tom thought for a moment and said, "No, dad, I don't like it. You look better without it. You look like my dad."
+
+His dad smiled and said, "OK, son, I will shave it off tomorrow. But you have to promise me something. Never touch the razor again, OK?"

+Lily liked to help her mom in the kitchen. She wanted to prepare a cake for her dad's birthday. She saw a big bowl with flour, sugar, eggs and butter. She also saw a teaspoon on the counter.
+
+Lily thought she could add some more sugar to the bowl. She took the teaspoon and scooped some sugar from the jar. But she did not stop at one spoon. She kept adding more and more sugar, until the jar was empty. She did not know that too much sugar was bad for the cake.
+
+She stirred the bowl with a wooden spoon and smiled. She thought her dad would love the sweet cake. She poured the batter into a cake pan and put it in the oven. She set the timer and waited.
+
+When the timer beeped, Lily ran to the oven. She opened the door and gasped. The cake had risen so much that it filled the whole oven. It was enormous and brown and sticky. It looked like a monster. It smelled bad too.
+
+Lily started to cry. She had ruined the cake and the oven. Her mom came and saw the mess. She was angry and sad. She scolded Lily for not listening and wasting the sugar. She told her to go to her room and think about what she had done.

+They walk to the park on a trail. They see some birds and flowers on the way. Lily and Tom sing a song and hold Mom's hand. They are happy and excited.
+
+When they get to the park, they find a nice spot under a tree. They spread a blanket and take out the basket. They eat their yummy sandwiches and fruit. They share some with the birds. They drink some juice and save the cookies for later.
+
+After they finish, they pack up the basket and the blanket. They run to the swings and take turns. They laugh and have fun. They also slide and climb and jump.
+
+They are tired and hungry again. They go back to the tree and eat their cookies. They are very yummy and sweet. They thank Mom for the picnic and hug her. They walk back on the trail and go home. They had a great day at the park.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make food for their toys. Lily had a big brown tray that she used to carry the plates and cups. Ben had a small red pot that he used to cook the food.
+
+"Look, Ben, I made a cake for our teddy bears!" Lily said, putting a round plastic cake on the tray. "It has pink frosting and sprinkles. Do you like it?"
+
+"I like it, Lily. It looks yummy!" Ben said, admiring the cake. "Can I help you decorate it?"
+
+"Sure, Ben. Here, you can put some of these stickers on it. They are flowers and stars and hearts. They will make the cake look pretty!" Lily said, handing him a sheet of stickers.
+
+Ben and Lily had fun putting the stickers on the cake. They made sure to leave some space for the candles. They counted to four and put four candles on the cake. They were very proud of their cake.
+
+"Let's sing happy birthday to our teddy bears!" Lily said, picking up the tray. "Follow me, Ben. We can surprise them in the living room."
+
+"Okay, Lily. I will bring the pot. Maybe they want some soup too." Ben said, following her with the pot.
+
+Lily and Ben walked carefully to the living room, where their teddy bears were waiting on the couch. They smiled and sang happy birthday to them. They pretended to blow out the candles and cut the cake. They gave each teddy bear a slice of cake and a cup of soup. They also ate some cake and soup themselves. They had a great time playing with their teddy bears and their brown tray and red pot. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily liked to play pirate in their backyard. They had a big cardboard box that they pretended was a ship. They wore hats and eye patches and said "Arrr!" a lot. They also had a colorful map that showed where to find treasure.
+
+One day, they decided to start a new adventure. They followed the map to a big tree. Under the tree, they saw a shiny metal box. "Look, Lily, we found the treasure!" Tom said. He opened the box and saw many coins and jewels inside.
+
+But then, they heard a loud voice behind them. "Hey, you little scallywags, that's my treasure!" It was Mr. Jones, their grumpy neighbor. He was dressed like a pirate too, but he looked angry and scary. He had a hook for a hand and a parrot on his shoulder.
+
+Tom and Lily were very scared. They dropped the box and ran back to their ship. Mr. Jones chased them, waving his hook and shouting. "Give me back my treasure, or I'll make you walk the plank!"
+
+Tom and Lily reached their ship and jumped inside. They closed the flap and hoped Mr. Jones would go away. But then, they heard a knock on the box. They opened the flap and saw Mr. Jones smiling. He was holding the treasure box and the map.
+
+"Sorry, kids, I didn't mean to scare you," he said. "I was just playing pirate too. This is my old costume and my coin collection. I made the map for fun. Do you want to share the treasure with me?"
+
+Tom and Lily looked at each other. They were surprised, but also curious. They nodded and smiled. Mr. Jones gave them some coins and jewels to keep. He also let them pet his parrot, who said "Arrr!" too. They all laughed and played pirate together. They had a lot of fun.
+Tom and Lily are playing in the garden. They hear a loud noise from the chicken coop. They run to see what is happening.
+
+They see a big fox trying to take the eggs from the hens. The hens are scared and noisy. The fox is angry and hungry.
+
+Tom and Lily are brave. They pick up some sticks and stones. They throw them at the fox. They shout, "Go away, fox! Leave the eggs alone!"
+
+The fox is surprised and hurt. He drops the eggs and runs away. The hens are happy and calm. They thank Tom and Lily for saving their eggs.
+
+Tom and Lily are proud and happy. They hug the hens and collect the eggs. They take them to their mom and dad. They tell them what happened.
+
+Mom and dad are proud and happy too. They praise Tom and Lily for being brave and kind. They make them a delicious breakfast with the eggs. They all eat and laugh together.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and plant seeds. They wanted to grow flowers and vegetables. They had a small watering can and a big shovel.
+
+"Look, Lily, this seed is growing!" Ben said. He pointed to a green sprout in the dirt. "It will be a carrot soon."
+
+"That's nice, Ben," Lily said. She was looking for a place to plant her sunflower seed. She saw a big pot near the fence. "I will put my seed here. It will grow big and yellow."
+
+She dug a hole in the pot and dropped her seed in. She covered it with dirt and watered it. She smiled and said, "There, now we wait."
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. They turned and saw smoke and fire coming from the house. They were scared and ran to the gate. They saw their mom and dad coming out of the house. They were holding a fire extinguisher and a blanket.
+
+"Mom, Dad, what happened?" Ben asked.
+
+"There was a fire in the kitchen. It was difficult to put out. But we are okay. Don't worry," Mom said. She hugged Ben and Lily.
+
+"Are you hurt?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, we are fine. But the kitchen is a mess. We have to call the firemen and clean up," Dad said. He looked at the pot near the fence. He saw the sunflower seed. He smiled and said, "Hey, Lily, did you plant this?"
+
+"Yes, Dad, I did. It's a sunflower. It will grow big and yellow," Lily said.
+
+"Well, that's good. Maybe it will brighten up our day," Dad said. He picked up the pot and carried it to the car. He said, "Come on, kids, let's go to Grandma's house. We can stay there until the house is fixed."
+
+Ben and Lily followed their parents. They were glad they were safe. They hoped their seeds would grow. They liked to grow things.
+Tom and Anna were twins, but they were very different. Tom liked to play with cars and trucks, and Anna liked to play with dolls and flowers. Tom had brown hair and brown eyes, and Anna had blond hair and blue eyes. Sometimes they argued, but they also loved each other.
+
+One day, Tom and Anna went to the park with their mom. They saw a big slide, a swing, and a sandbox. Tom ran to the slide, and Anna ran to the swing. They had fun, but then they heard a loud noise. It was a dog, a big black dog, that barked and growled. Tom and Anna were scared, and they ran to their mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, help!" they cried. "There is a bad dog!"
+
+Their mom hugged them and said, "Don't worry, my loves. The dog is not bad, he is just loud. He is on a leash, and his owner is here. He can't hurt you. You are safe with me."
+
+She comforted them, and they felt better. Then she said, "Look, I have a surprise for you. I brought a jar of cookies for you. Do you want one?"
+
+Tom and Anna nodded, and smiled. They loved cookies. Their mom opened the jar, and gave them each a cookie. They thanked her, and ate their cookies. They were delicious.
+
+"Mom, you are the best!" they said.
+
+Their mom smiled, and said, "You are the best, too. You are my sweet twins, and I love you very much. Even if you are different, you are both special to me."
+
+Tom and Anna hugged their mom, and said, "We love you, too, mom. And we love each other, even if we are different."
+
+They finished their cookies, and then they played some more. They tried the slide, the swing, and the sandbox. They shared their toys, and they had fun. They were happy, and they forgot about the dog. They were different, but they were also the same. They were twins, and they were a family.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make food for their toys. Lila put on a big hat and said, "Welcome to Lila's cafe! What do you want to eat?"
+
+Ben looked at the menu that Lila had drawn with crayons. He saw a picture of a jar with something green inside. He pointed at it and said, "I want that. What is it?"
+
+Lila smiled and said, "That is my special sauce. It is very yummy and unusual. It is made from peas and mint and yogurt. Do you like peas?"
+
+Ben nodded. He liked peas. They were small and round and green. He said, "Yes, I like peas. And I like mint. And I like yogurt. Can I have some bread with the sauce?"
+
+Lila said, "Of course. I have some bread here. I will cut it for you and put some sauce on it. Here you go. Enjoy your meal."
+
+Ben took a bite of the bread with the sauce. He made a funny face. He said, "This sauce is unusual. It is sweet and sour and cold. It is not like ketchup or mustard or mayo. But it is not bad. It is different. I like it."
+
+Lila was happy. She said, "I'm glad you like it. It is my favorite sauce. Do you want some more?"
+
+Ben said, "Yes, please. Can I have the whole jar?"
+
+Lila laughed and said, "Sure. You can have the whole jar. But you have to share it with me. And with our toys. They are hungry too."
+
+Ben agreed. He said, "OK. Let's share the sauce. And let's make more food. What else can we order?"
+
+Lila said, "We can order anything we want. We have lots of things in the kitchen. We can make pizza, or salad, or soup, or cake. What do you want?"
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He said, "I want pizza. And cake. And more sauce."
+
+Lila said, "OK. Let's make pizza and cake and more sauce. And let's have fun."
+Ben and Mia liked to play on the sand near the water. They made castles and bridges and dug holes. Sometimes they saw fish and crabs and shells in the water. They were careful not to go too far, because the water could be deep and strong.
+
+One day, they saw a big stick on the sand. It was longer than Ben and Mia together. They wanted to use it for their bridge. They tried to lift it, but it was too heavy. They pushed it, but it did not move. They pulled it, but it was stuck.
+
+"Let's ask Dad to help us," Mia said.
+
+"No, we can do it ourselves," Ben said. He was stubborn and wanted to show he was strong.
+
+He pulled harder on the stick, but it did not budge. He did not see that the water was coming closer and closer. The water was the tide, and it moved the sand and the stick. Soon, the water was around Ben's feet and the stick was wet.
+
+"Ben, come back! The water is too high!" Mia shouted.
+
+Ben did not listen. He did not want to give up. He tried to resist the tide, but it was stronger than him. It pushed him and the stick back. Ben lost his balance and fell into the water. He was scared and cold and wet.
+
+Mia ran to him and helped him stand up. She hugged him and said, "It's okay, Ben. I'm here. Let's go to Dad. He will make you warm and dry."
+
+Ben nodded and followed Mia. He was sorry he did not listen to her. He learned that sometimes it was better to ask for help than to resist. He also learned that the tide was not a toy, but a force of nature. He decided to be more careful and respectful of the water next time.
+Tom and Lily were best friends. They liked to play together every day. They had a lot of fun with their toys, books and games.
+
+One day, Tom had to leave. His family was moving to a new house far away. He was sad and scared. He did not want to say goodbye to Lily.
+
+He wrote a note for her. He used his crayons and paper. He drew a picture of them holding hands. He wrote: "I will miss you, Lily. You are my best friend. I hope you are happy and comfortable. Love, Tom."
+
+He put the note in his backpack. He gave Lily a big hug. He said: "I will see you again, Lily. Don't forget me. I love you."
+
+Lily hugged him back. She said: "I will never forget you, Tom. I love you too. I hope you like your new house. Write to me, okay?"
+
+Tom nodded. He got in the car with his mom and dad. He waved to Lily. Lily waved back. She held the note in her hand. She felt sad, but also happy. She had a very good friend. She knew he would always be in her heart.
+Tom and Anna are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. They have a ball, a bike and a kite. They have fun in the sun.
+
+But one day, the sky is dark and the wind is strong. Mom says, "We have to go home. It will rain soon." Tom and Anna do not want to go. They want to play more.
+
+"Please, mom, just a little more," Tom says. He throws the ball high in the air.
+
+"No, Tom, we have to hurry. Come here now," mom says. She has a loud voice.
+
+Anna runs to mom with her bike. She is a good girl. She listens to mom. But Tom does not listen. He runs to the kite. He wants to fly the kite in the wind.
+
+"Tom, stop! The kite will fly away!" dad says. He has a loud voice too.
+
+But Tom does not stop. He grabs the kite and lets it go. The kite flies up and up. Tom is happy. He laughs.
+
+But then, the kite flies too high. It gets stuck in a tree. Tom is sad. He cries.
+
+"Tom, I told you to come here. Now the kite is gone. You are a bad boy," mom says. She is angry.
+
+Tom runs to mom and dad. He is sorry. He says, "I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry, dad. I love the kite. I love you."
+
+Mom and dad hug Tom. They are not angry anymore. They say, "We love you too, Tom. But you have to listen to us. We know what is best for you."
+
+They all go home. They are wet from the rain. They take a bath. They are clean. They have dinner. They are happy. They say good night. They sleep. They dream of the kite.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the garden. They see a big, hairy bee on a flower. Sara wants to touch the bee, but Ben says no.
+
+"Bees can hurt you," Ben says. "They have a sharp thing on their back. If you make them angry, they can poke you with it."
+
+Sara does not listen. She reaches out her hand to the bee. The bee buzzes and flies away. Sara follows the bee to another flower. She tries to touch it again.
+
+"Stop, Sara!" Ben shouts. "You are scaring the bee!"
+
+But Sara is too fast. She grabs the bee with her fingers. The bee pokes her with its sharp thing. Sara screams and lets go of the bee. Her hand is red and swollen.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Sara cries. "The bee hurt me!"
+
+Ben runs to Sara and hugs her. He takes her to the house. He finds a wet cloth and wipes her hand. He gives her a kiss and a band-aid.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara," Ben says. "I tried to warn you. Bees are not for touching. They are for looking and listening. They make honey and help the flowers grow."
+
+Sara sniffles and nods. She hugs Ben back. She says sorry to the bee and the flower.
+
+"Next time, I will be careful," Sara says. "Thank you, Ben. You are a good brother."
+Lily was a smart girl who liked to help her mom at the hospital. She admired the doctors and nurses who made people feel better. Sometimes, she got to watch them do an operation, where they opened up someone's body and fixed what was wrong.
+
+One day, she saw a doctor do an operation on a boy who had a bad heart. The doctor used a special machine that made the boy's heart stop and start again. Lily was amazed by how the doctor knew what to do.
+
+"Wow, you are so brave and smart, doctor!" Lily said to him after the operation. "How did you learn to do that?"
+
+The doctor smiled and thanked Lily for her kind words. He told her that he studied a lot of books and practiced a lot of times. He said that he loved his job because he could help people like the boy.
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I want to be like you when I grow up. I want to help people too."
+
+The doctor hugged Lily and said, "I'm sure you will, Lily. You have a good heart and a curious mind. Just keep learning and trying new things. And always admire those who do good in the world."
+Ben and Mia liked to play pirates with their toy ship and their hats. They pretended to sail on the sea and look for treasure. One day, they found a shiny coin in the sand and put it in their ship.
+
+"Look, we are rich!" Ben said.
+
+"Let's go to the port and buy some candy!" Mia said.
+
+They ran to the port, where there were many big boats and people. They saw a shop that had candy and ice cream. They wanted to buy some, but they did not have enough money.
+
+"Maybe we can use the coin," Ben said.
+
+He took the coin out of his pocket and showed it to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper looked at the coin and smiled.
+
+"This is a very special coin," he said. "It is worth a lot of money. Where did you find it?"
+
+Ben and Mia did not know what to say. They felt guilty. They knew they had taken the coin from someone else.
+
+"We found it in the sand," Mia said.
+
+The shopkeeper nodded. He gave them some candy and ice cream and took the coin.
+
+"Thank you," he said. "You are very lucky. This coin has a magic power. It can make you vanish."
+
+Ben and Mia did not understand what he meant. They took their candy and ice cream and went back to their ship. They ate their treats and felt happy.
+
+But then, something strange happened. They started to feel dizzy and light. They looked at each other and saw that they were fading away.
+
+"Help!" Ben shouted.
+
+"Help!" Mia shouted.
+
+They tried to hold on to each other, but they could not. They vanished from the port and from the world. They did not know where they went or how to come back.
+
+The shopkeeper watched them disappear. He smiled and put the coin in his pocket. He knew the coin was magic. He had tricked them. He was a bad pirate. He wanted the coin for himself. He did not care about Ben and Mia. He did not feel guilty at all.
+Ben and Mia were playing in the park. They liked to dig in the sand and look for shiny things. Sometimes they found coins or buttons or rocks. They called them minerals.
+
+One day, they saw a big dog near the swings. The dog was black and had a red bow on its neck. It looked friendly, but Ben and Mia were frightened. They did not know the dog or its owner.
+
+"Hello, little ones," a voice said. "Do you want to pet my dog? Her name is Ruby. She is very gentle and loves children."
+
+Ben and Mia looked up and saw a lady smiling at them. She had a red hat and a red dress. She held a leash in her hand.
+
+"Is she your dog?" Ben asked.
+
+"Yes, she is. She is a very good dog. She can do tricks. Watch this." The lady said a word and Ruby sat down. Then she said another word and Ruby rolled over. Then she said another word and Ruby jumped up and bowed.
+
+"Wow!" Mia said. "She is amazing!"
+
+"Do you want to try?" the lady asked. "You can give her a treat if she does what you say."
+
+Ben and Mia nodded. They liked treats and they liked tricks. They took turns saying words and giving treats to Ruby. Ruby did everything they said. She sat, rolled, jumped, and bowed. She licked their faces and wagged her tail.
+
+Ben and Mia were not frightened anymore. They liked Ruby and the lady. They thanked them for the fun and the treats.
+
+"Bye, Ruby. Bye, lady. You are very nice," they said.
+
+"Bye, Ben. Bye, Mia. You are very smart," the lady said. "Maybe we will see you again in the park."
+
+Ben and Mia waved and ran back to their sandpit. They were happy. They had made new friends and learned new words. They decided to look for more minerals and make a necklace for Ruby. They thought she would like that.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with planes. They have many planes. Some are big, some are small, some are red, some are blue.
+
+One day, they go to the park. They want to fly their planes. They find a big hill. They run up the hill with their planes.
+
+"Look, Sam, I have a new plane!" Tom says. "It is easy to throw. It goes very far. Watch me!"
+
+Tom throws his plane. It flies in the air. It makes a loop. It lands on the grass.
+
+"Wow, Tom, your plane is cool!" Sam says. "Can I try it?"
+
+"Sure, Sam, you can try it. But be careful. It is my favorite plane." Tom says.
+
+Sam takes the plane. He throws it. But he throws it too hard. The plane goes too fast. It hits a tree. It breaks.
+
+"Oh no, Sam, you broke my plane!" Tom says. He is sad. He is angry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom, I didn't mean to break your plane!" Sam says. He is sorry. He is scared.
+
+Tom and Sam look at the broken plane. They don't know what to do. They are quiet.
+
+Then, they hear a voice.
+
+"Hey, kids, what are you doing?" It is a man. He is walking his dog. He sees the broken plane.
+
+"We were playing with planes, but Sam broke my plane!" Tom says.
+
+"That's too bad. But don't worry. I can fix your plane. I have some glue and tape in my car. Come with me." The man says.
+
+"Really? You can fix it?" Tom says.
+
+"Sure, I can. It is easy. I like planes too. I have many planes at home. Do you want to see them?" The man says.
+
+"Yes, we do!" Tom and Sam say.
+
+They follow the man to his car. He fixes the plane. He shows them his planes. They are big, they are small, they are red, they are blue.
+
+Tom and Sam are happy. They thank the man. They hug their planes.
+
+They go back to the hill. They fly their planes. They are careful. They are friends.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a pond with ducks. Lily loves ducks. She wants to feed them bread.
+
+"Can I have some bread, please?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"OK, here you go," Ben says. He gives Lily a piece of bread. He has another piece for himself.
+
+Lily breaks the bread into small bits. She throws them to the ducks. The ducks come closer. They quack and eat the bread. Lily is happy.
+
+"Quack, quack, quack," Lily says. She repeats what the ducks say. She thinks it is fun.
+
+Ben tries to do the same. He says, "Quack, quack, quack." But he does not sound like a duck. He sounds funny.
+
+Lily laughs. She thinks Ben is silly. She says, "You are not a duck. You are a boy."
+
+Ben feels sad. He does not like to be laughed at. He says, "Stop laughing at me. I can quack too."
+
+Lily does not stop. She laughs more. She says, "No, you can't. You sound like a frog."
+
+Ben gets angry. He says, "I do not sound like a frog. You are mean."
+
+He throws his bread at Lily. The bread hits her face. She cries.
+
+The ducks are scared. They swim away. They do not want to be near the children.
+
+Lily and Ben are not happy. They are not friends anymore. They go home. They do not say sorry.
+Lila and Sam were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. Lila wore a pink apron with flowers. Sam wore a blue apron with stars.
+
+"What are you making, Lila?" Sam asked.
+
+"I am making a cake. It is a chocolate cake with sprinkles. What are you making, Sam?" Lila answered.
+
+"I am making a pizza. It is a cheese pizza with pepperoni. Do you want some?" Sam offered.
+
+"Yes, please. And you can have some of my cake too. We can share." Lila said.
+
+They put their food on plates and sat at the table. They pretended to eat and drink. They said, "Mmm, this is good. You are a great chef."
+
+They heard a knock on the door. It was their mom. She had been away for a long time. She had a big smile on her face.
+
+"Hi, my sweeties. I missed you so much. I am home." She said.
+
+Lila and Sam ran to hug her. They were so happy to see her. They told her about their food and their aprons. They asked her where she had been.
+
+"I had to go to a distant place for work. It was very far away. But I thought of you every day. And I brought you a present." She said.
+
+She gave them each a small box. Inside, there were necklaces with their names on them. Lila's was pink and Sam's was blue.
+
+"Wow, thank you, mom. We love them. And we love you." They said.
+
+They put on their necklaces and showed them to each other. They hugged their mom again. They were a happy family.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play near the river. One day, they find a big raft. It is made of wood and has a rope. They want to go on the raft and float on the water.
+
+"Can we go on the raft?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"I don't know. It looks old and wet. Maybe it will break," Ben says.
+
+They stare at the raft for a long time. They see some fish and ducks in the river. They hear the water splash and the birds sing. They think it would be fun to go on the raft.
+
+"Let's go on the raft. We can hold the rope and be careful. It will be fun," Lily says.
+
+"OK. But we have to tell our moms first. And we have to wear our life jackets. And we have to stay close to the shore. And we have to come back soon," Ben says.
+
+They run to their moms and tell them about the raft. Their moms say yes, but they have to follow the rules. They put on their life jackets and run back to the raft. They are ready to go on the raft.
+
+They climb on the raft and hold the rope. They push the raft with their feet and start to float on the water. They feel the sun and the wind on their faces. They see the trees and the flowers on the shore. They wave to their moms and smile. They are happy on the raft.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big slide. They want to go on the slide.
+
+Lily goes first. She climbs up the ladder. She sits on the slide. She slides down fast. She is happy. She says, "That was fun!"
+
+Tom goes next. He climbs up the ladder. He sits on the slide. He slides down fast. But he does not hold on. He falls off the slide. He is sad. He says, "Ouch!"
+
+Lily runs to Tom. She helps him up. She says, "Are you okay?" Tom nods. He has a scratch on his knee. He says, "It hurts a little."
+
+Lily says, "You are smart. You know what to do. You need a band-aid. Come on, let's go to the bench. There is a first-aid kit there."
+
+Lily and Tom go to the bench. They find a band-aid. Lily puts it on Tom's knee. She says, "There, that's better. Now you can play again."
+
+Tom smiles. He says, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. You are smart and kind."
+
+Lily and Tom hug. They go back to the slide. They hold on this time. They slide down together. They are happy. They say, "Wee!"
+Anna loved to sing. She sang when she woke up, when she ate, when she played and when she went to bed. She sang happy songs, silly songs, and made-up songs. She sang to her toys, her mom, her dad, and her cat.
+
+Her cat was called Luna. Luna was a gloomy cat. She did not like to sing. She did not like noise. She liked to sleep, to hide, and to be alone. She did not like Anna's songs. She thought they were too loud, too cheerful, and too annoying.
+
+One day, Anna was singing a song about a rainbow. She sang, "Rainbow, rainbow, in the sky, you are so pretty, I wonder why. You have red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet too. Rainbow, rainbow, in the sky, you make me happy, you make me smile."
+
+Luna was sleeping under the bed. She heard Anna's song. She did not like it. She thought it was too bright, too colorful, and too happy. She wanted to sleep. She wanted silence. She wanted Anna to stop.
+
+She jumped out from under the bed. She ran to Anna. She hissed, "Stop, stop, stop! I don't like your song. It hurts my ears. It hurts my eyes. It hurts my mood. Stop, stop, stop!"
+
+Anna was surprised. She did not know Luna did not like her song. She did not want to hurt Luna. She wanted to be friends with Luna. She said, "I'm sorry, Luna. I did not know you did not like my song. I like to sing. It makes me happy. It makes me feel good. Why don't you like to sing?"
+
+Luna said, "I don't like to sing. It makes me sad. It makes me feel bad. I like to sleep. It makes me calm. It makes me feel good. Why don't you like to sleep?"
+
+Anna said, "I like to sleep. But I also like to sing. Singing and sleeping are both good. They are different, but they are good. Maybe we can do both. Maybe we can sing and sleep together. Maybe we can find a song that we both like."
+
+Luna said, "Maybe we can. Maybe we can try. Maybe we can find a song that is not too loud, not too cheerful, and not too annoying. Maybe we can find a song that is soft, gentle, and soothing. Maybe we can find a song that is good for singing and sleeping."
+
+Anna said, "I have an idea. I know a song that is like that. It is a song that my mom sings to me when I go to bed. It is a song that makes me sleepy. It is a song that makes me dream. Do you want to hear it?"
+
+Luna said, "Yes, I do. I want to hear it. I want to try it. I want to sing and sleep with you."
+
+Anna said, "Okay, then. Come with me. Let's go to my bed. Let's cuddle up. Let's sing and sleep together. Let's sing this song."
+
+She sang, "Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are. Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky. Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are."
+
+Luna listened. She liked the song. It was not too loud, not too cheerful, and not too annoying. It was soft, gentle, and soothing. It was good for singing and sleeping. She joined in. She sang, "Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are."
+
+Anna and Luna sang together. They sang softly. They sang gently. They sang soothingly. They sang until they fell asleep. They slept peacefully. They slept happily. They slept as friends.
+Timmy loved cars. He had many toy cars that he played with every day. He liked to make them go fast and make loud noises. He also liked to watch real cars on the street and in the garage.
+
+One day, Timmy went to the garage with his dad. His dad's car was broken and needed to be fixed. A mechanic worked on the car. He wore a blue suit and had tools in his hands. He opened the hood and looked inside.
+
+"Hello, little boy," the mechanic said to Timmy. "Do you like cars?"
+
+"Yes, I do!" Timmy said. "Cars are fun and cool!"
+
+The mechanic smiled. "I like cars too. That's why I fix them. Do you want to see what I do?"
+
+Timmy nodded. He was curious and excited. The mechanic showed him some parts of the car and explained what they did. He also let Timmy hold some tools and touch some wires.
+
+Timmy was amazed. He thought the mechanic was very smart and impressive. He learned many new things about cars. He wanted to be a mechanic when he grew up.
+
+But not everyone liked cars. Timmy's sister, Lily, hated cars. She thought they were noisy and dirty and boring. She liked dolls and flowers and books. She did not want to go to the garage with Timmy and his dad. She stayed at home with her mom.
+
+When Timmy and his dad came back from the garage, Timmy told Lily everything he saw and learned. He showed her his toy cars and pretended to fix them like the mechanic.
+
+Lily did not care. She rolled her eyes and said, "Cars are stupid. I hate cars. You are silly, Timmy. Dolls are better."
+
+Timmy was hurt and angry. He did not like Lily's words. He loved cars and he loved the mechanic. He said, "No, you are stupid. I hate dolls. You are mean, Lily. Cars are better."
+
+Timmy and Lily started to fight. They yelled and pushed and threw things. Their mom and dad heard the noise and came to stop them. They scolded them and made them say sorry to each other.
+
+Timmy and Lily hugged and apologized. They realized they were both wrong. They did not have to like the same things, but they had to respect each other. They decided to play together and share their toys. They also agreed to try new things and learn from each other.
+
+Timmy and Lily were happy again. They loved each other, even if they did not love the same things. They also loved their mom and dad, and the mechanic, and the cars, and the dolls, and the flowers, and the books. They loved many things, and they were impressive.
+Lila and Tom were playing in the jungle. They liked to pretend they were explorers and find new things. They saw a big tree with many fruits. They wanted to eat some.
+
+"Look, Tom, there are bananas!" Lila said. "Let's get some."
+
+"OK, Lila, but how?" Tom asked. "They are too high."
+
+Lila had an idea. She saw a sharp rock on the ground. She picked it up and said, "I can cut the bananas with this. You hold me up."
+
+Tom nodded and lifted Lila on his shoulders. Lila reached for the bananas and tried to cut them with the rock. But the rock was not very good at cutting. It only made a small scratch on the peel.
+
+"Ouch!" Lila said. "This rock hurts my hand. It is not soft like the bananas."
+
+She dropped the rock and it fell on Tom's head. Tom cried out in pain and let go of Lila. Lila fell down and bumped her knee. She also cried.
+
+They both sat on the ground and rubbed their hurts. They felt sad and hungry. They looked at the bananas and wished they could have some.
+
+Then they heard a voice. It was their mom. She had followed them to the jungle. She saw them and ran to them.
+
+"What happened, my loves?" she asked. "Why are you crying?"
+
+Lila and Tom told her what they tried to do. They said they were sorry for being naughty and hurting themselves.
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "It's OK, my loves. I'm not angry. I'm glad you are safe. But you should not play with sharp things. They can cut you and make you bleed. And you should not go to the jungle alone. It can be dangerous. There are many animals and plants that can hurt you too."
+
+She took out a cloth and a bottle of water from her bag. She cleaned their wounds and kissed them. She said, "I have a surprise for you. Look what I brought."
+
+She opened her bag and took out some bananas. They were ripe and soft and sweet. She peeled them and gave one to each of them.
+
+Lila and Tom smiled and said, "Thank you, Mom. You are the best. We love you."
+
+They ate the bananas and felt better. They learned their lesson and decided to be more careful next time. They also decided to share their bananas with the monkeys in the jungle. They thought they would like them too.
+Tom is a boy who likes to play with his cars. He has many cars of different colors and sizes. He makes them zoom and crash on the floor. He likes to pretend that he is a driver and he can go anywhere he wants.
+
+One day, his mom tells him that he has to clean his room. She says that he has too many cars and they are making a mess. She says that he has to put some of his cars in a box and give them to other children who do not have any. Tom does not want to do that. He loves all his cars and he does not want to share them.
+
+He says to his mom, "No, mom, I need all my cars. They are my friends. They talk to me and they have fun with me. I do not want to give them away."
+
+His mom says, "Tom, I know you like your cars, but you have to believe me. You have more than enough cars and you can still keep your favorites. There are many children who do not have any toys and they would be very happy to have some of your cars. You can make them smile and you can be a good boy."
+
+Tom thinks for a while. He looks at his cars and he feels sad. He does not want to make them go away. But he also does not want to make his mom angry. And he thinks about the other children who have nothing to play with. He wonders how they feel. He decides to try to be a good boy.
+
+He says to his mom, "OK, mom, I will clean my room and I will give some of my cars to the other children. But can I keep my red car and my blue car and my yellow car? They are my best friends and they always make me happy."
+
+His mom smiles and hugs him. She says, "Yes, Tom, you can keep those cars. I am proud of you for being a good boy and for sharing your toys. You are very kind and generous. And you know what? I believe that your cars are happy too. They will have new friends and new adventures. And they will always remember you and love you."
+
+Tom feels better. He cleans his room and he puts some of his cars in a box. He keeps his red car and his blue car and his yellow car. He says goodbye to the other cars and he thanks them for playing with him. He hopes that they will find good homes and good children. He believes that they will. He believes that he is a good boy. And he believes that his mom loves him.
+Tim and Lily were playing hide and seek in the garden. Tim was the seeker and Lily was the hider. Lily ran behind the big hedge and hid there. She was very quiet and hoped Tim would not find her.
+
+Tim looked around the garden and tried to find Lily. He could not see her anywhere. He checked behind the tree, under the slide, and in the sandbox, but Lily was not there. He started to feel sad and worried. Where was Lily?
+
+He decided to shout and ask Lily to come out. He said, "Lily, where are you? I can't find you. Please come out. I miss you." He waited for Lily to answer, but he heard nothing. He shouted again, "Lily, please come out. It's getting dark and I'm scared. Don't hide anymore."
+
+Lily heard Tim's voice and felt sorry for him. She did not want to make him sad and scared. She wanted to play with him and have fun. She came out from behind the hedge and said, "Tim, I'm here. I'm sorry I hid too well. I didn't mean to scare you. Let's play together."
+
+Tim saw Lily and smiled. He ran to her and gave her a hug. He said, "Lily, I'm so happy to see you. You're a very good hider, but I'm a very good seeker. Let's play something else. How about tag?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "OK, let's play tag. You're it!" She tapped Tim on the shoulder and ran away. Tim chased her and they laughed and played until it was time to go inside. They had a lot of fun and forgot about the dark.
+Lily liked to play with her furry jacket. It was soft and warm and had a hood with ears. She liked to pretend she was a bear and roar at her toys. One day, she wanted to show her jacket to her friend Ben.
+
+She put on her jacket and ran to Ben's house. She knocked on the door and Ben opened it. He was wearing a blue shirt and jeans. He smiled when he saw Lily.
+
+"Hi, Lily! Do you want to play?" he asked.
+
+"Yes, Ben! Look at my jacket! It is furry and has ears. Do you like it?" Lily said.
+
+Ben looked at her jacket and frowned. He did not like it. He thought it was silly and not cool.
+
+"No, Lily. I don't like your jacket. It does not match your dress. It is too big and too brown. You look like a dirty bear. You should wear something else," he said.
+
+Lily felt sad and hurt. She liked her jacket and she thought Ben was her friend. She did not understand why he was mean to her.
+
+"But I like my jacket. It is fun and cozy. It does not matter if it matches or not. It makes me happy. Why are you mean to me, Ben?" she asked.
+
+Ben shrugged and turned away. He did not care about Lily's feelings. He only cared about what he liked and what he thought was cool.
+
+"I don't want to play with you. You look weird. Go away, Lily," he said.
+
+Lily felt tears in her eyes. She ran away from Ben's house. She felt lonely and angry. She wished she had a friend who liked her jacket and liked her.
+
+She ran back to her house and hugged her mom. Her mom saw that she was upset and asked her what happened. Lily told her about Ben and his words. Her mom listened and hugged her back.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. Ben was very rude and unkind to you. He should not have said those things. He should have been nice and respectful. You have a beautiful jacket and you can wear whatever you want. It does not matter what other people think. What matters is how you feel and what makes you happy. You are a wonderful and creative girl and you deserve a friend who appreciates you and your jacket," her mom said.
+
+Lily smiled and thanked her mom. She felt better and loved. She realized that her mom was right. She did not need Ben to like her jacket or her. She liked herself and her jacket. She decided to find a new friend who liked her for who she was and who liked to play and have fun.
+
+The next day, she went to the park and saw a girl wearing a pink hat with flowers. She liked her hat and thought it was pretty. She went to say hello and compliment her hat. The girl smiled and thanked her. She said her name was Mia and asked Lily her name. Lily told her and showed her her jacket. Mia liked her jacket and said it was cute and cozy. She asked Lily if she wanted to play. Lily said yes and they became friends. They played and laughed and had fun. They did not care if their clothes matched or not. They liked each other and their clothes. They were happy.
+
+The moral of the story is: Be yourself and be kind to others. Don't judge people by their appearance or their clothes. Find friends who like you for who you are and who share your interests and joy.
+Ben and Lily were bored. They had nothing to do. They looked at the toys, but they did not want to play with them. They looked at the books, but they did not want to read them. They looked at the TV, but they did not want to watch it.
+
+"Let's go outside," Ben said. "Maybe we can find something fun."
+
+"OK," Lily said. "But we have to be careful. It is very hot today."
+
+They put on their hats and shoes and went outside. They saw a big red car parked on the street. It looked shiny and new.
+
+"Wow, look at that car!" Ben said. "It is so pretty. Can we touch it?"
+
+"I don't know," Lily said. "Maybe it is not ours. Maybe someone will be mad."
+
+But Ben was curious. He walked to the car and reached out his hand. He touched the hood of the car. It was very hot. He quickly pulled back his hand and cried out.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! It hurts! It hurts!"
+
+Lily ran to him and saw his hand. It was red and sore. She felt sorry for him.
+
+"Are you OK, Ben?" she asked. "Do you need some ice?"
+
+Ben nodded. He was in pain. He wanted to make his hand feel better.
+
+"Come on, let's go inside," Lily said. "We can get some ice and rub your hand. That will help."
+
+They ran inside and found some ice in the freezer. Lily wrapped it in a cloth and gave it to Ben. He rubbed his hand with the ice. It felt cold and nice.
+
+"Thank you, Lily," he said. "You are a good sister. I'm sorry I touched the car. It was a bad idea."
+
+"It's OK, Ben," Lily said. "You did not know. Next time, we will be more careful. And maybe we can find something else to do. Something that is not boring and not hot."
+Sara and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. Sara had a doll and Tom had a car. They were having fun until Sara saw a shiny pin on the floor. She wanted to pick it up and see what it was.
+
+"Look, Tom, a pin!" Sara said, pointing to the pin.
+
+"No, Sara, don't touch it!" Tom said, feeling nervous. "It can hurt you. It has a sharp end that can poke you and make you bleed. Mommy told us to mind the pins and not play with them."
+
+"But I want to see it!" Sara said, not listening to Tom. She reached for the pin with her hand.
+
+"Stop, Sara, stop!" Tom said, grabbing her hand. "It's not a toy. It's dangerous. Give it to me. I will put it away where it belongs."
+
+Tom took the pin from Sara and put it in a small box on the shelf. He was glad that he stopped Sara from hurting herself. He hoped that Mommy would not be angry with them for finding the pin.
+
+"Sorry, Tom," Sara said, feeling sorry. "I didn't know it was bad. I just wanted to look at it. It was shiny and pretty."
+
+"It's okay, Sara," Tom said, hugging her. "I know you didn't mean to be bad. But you have to mind what Mommy says. She knows what is good and what is bad for us. She loves us and wants us to be safe."
+
+"I love Mommy too," Sara said, smiling. "And I love you, Tom. You are a good brother. You helped me."
+
+"I love you too, Sara," Tom said, smiling back. "You are a good sister. You said sorry."
+
+They hugged each other and went back to playing with their toys. They were happy and careful. They minded the pins and did not touch them again.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big tree with many branches. They wanted to climb the tree and see the birds and the sky.
+
+"Let's climb the tree, Lily!" Tom said. "It looks fun!"
+
+"OK, Tom, but be careful!" Lily said. "The tree is very high and we might fall."
+
+They climbed the tree slowly and carefully. They saw many birds and the sky was blue and bright. They felt happy and proud.
+
+But then, they heard a loud noise. It was a band of bad boys who came to the park. They saw Lily and Tom in the tree and they laughed at them.
+
+"Look at those babies in the tree!" one boy said. "They are scared of us!"
+
+"Let's throw rocks at them!" another boy said. "That will teach them a lesson!"
+
+The bad boys picked up some rocks and threw them at Lily and Tom. The rocks hit the tree and made it shake. Lily and Tom were scared and hurt.
+
+"Stop it! Stop it!" Lily cried. "You are bad and mean!"
+
+"Help! Help!" Tom shouted. "We want to get down!"
+
+The bad boys did not stop. They threw more rocks and laughed more. They did not care about Lily and Tom.
+
+But then, a big dog came to the park. It saw the bad boys and the rocks and it barked loudly. It ran to the bad boys and chased them away. The bad boys were scared and ran away.
+
+The dog came to the tree and wagged its tail. It licked Lily and Tom and helped them get down. Lily and Tom hugged the dog and thanked it.
+
+"You are a good dog!" Lily said. "You saved us from the bad boys!"
+
+"You are a brave dog!" Tom said. "You are our friend!"
+
+The dog barked happily and licked them again. Lily and Tom smiled and played with the dog. They learned a lesson that day. They learned that climbing a tree is fun, but being kind is better. They learned that bad boys are not cool, but good dogs are. They learned that friends are important, and they should always help each other.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is brown and has a long tail. The dog runs to them and barks.
+
+"Hello, dog!" Tim says. He wants to pet the dog. He likes animals.
+
+"Wait, Tim!" Sam says. He is scared of the dog. He thinks the dog might bite. "Maybe the dog is hungry. Maybe he wants meat."
+
+Sam has a sandwich in his bag. He takes out the sandwich and shows it to the dog. The dog smells the sandwich and wags his tail.
+
+"Here, dog. You can have my sandwich. It has meat and cheese. It is fine," Sam says. He throws the sandwich to the dog. The dog catches the sandwich and eats it.
+
+"Good boy, dog. You are nice," Tim says. He pets the dog. The dog licks Tim's hand.
+
+"Can we play with the dog?" Tim asks Sam.
+
+"OK, Tim. But be careful. The dog is big and strong," Sam says.
+
+They play with the dog. They throw a ball and the dog fetches it. They run and the dog chases them. They have fun.
+
+The dog's owner comes to the park. He sees the dog and the boys.
+
+"Hey, that's my dog. His name is Rex. He is friendly. Do you like him?" the owner says.
+
+"Yes, we like Rex. He is a good dog. We gave him a sandwich. He was hungry," Tim says.
+
+"Thank you for sharing your sandwich. That was very kind of you. Rex loves meat and cheese. He is fine," the owner says.
+
+"Can we play with Rex again?" Sam asks.
+
+"Sure, you can. Rex likes to play. He likes to make new friends. Why don't you come to my house tomorrow? I have more meat and cheese for Rex and you," the owner says.
+
+He suggests a plan. Tim and Sam are happy. They say goodbye to Rex and the owner. They go home. They tell their moms about Rex. They can't wait for tomorrow.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play soccer in the park. They have a ball and two cones. The cones are their goal. They take turns to kick the ball and try to score.
+
+One day, they see a big box near the goal. It has many colors and brushes inside. It is paint. Anna and Ben are curious. They want to try the paint.
+
+"Can we paint the goal?" Anna asks Ben.
+
+"Sure, why not?" Ben says. "It will be fun."
+
+They pick up the brushes and dip them in the paint. They paint the cones with different colors. They make stripes and dots and stars. They paint the grass and the dirt too. They are very messy, but they are happy.
+
+They finish painting the goal. It looks very bright and pretty. Anna and Ben are glad. They admire their work.
+
+"Wow, we made a beautiful goal!" Anna says.
+
+"Yes, we did!" Ben says. "Now let's play soccer with it."
+
+They put down the brushes and pick up the ball. They kick the ball and try to score. They have more fun than ever. They love their painted goal.
+Tom and Lily were making toast for breakfast. They liked toast with butter and jam. They put the bread in the toaster and waited for it to pop.
+
+"Where is the butter?" Lily asked Tom.
+
+Tom looked in the fridge. He did not see the butter. He looked in the cupboard. He did not see the butter. He looked on the table. He did not see the butter.
+
+"I don't know," Tom said. "I think we forget the butter."
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted butter on her toast. She did not like dry toast.
+
+"Maybe we can ask Mommy," Tom said. "She might have some butter."
+
+They ran to Mommy's room. They knocked on the door.
+
+"Mommy, Mommy, can we have some butter?" they asked.
+
+Mommy opened the door. She was confused. She saw Tom and Lily holding their toast.
+
+"Butter?" she said. "Why do you need butter?"
+
+"For our toast, Mommy," Lily said. "We forget the butter."
+
+Mommy smiled. She hugged Tom and Lily.
+
+"You silly kids," she said. "You did not forget the butter. You left it on the counter. Come, I'll show you."
+
+She took them to the kitchen. She pointed to the counter. There was the butter. It was in a yellow dish.
+
+"See?" she said. "There is the butter. You can put it on your toast now."
+
+Tom and Lily were happy. They thanked Mommy. They spread the butter on their toast. They added some jam. They ate their toast. It was yummy.
+
+They did not forget the butter again.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to go to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They see many animals at the zoo. They see lions, monkeys, elephants, and more.
+
+One day, they see a new animal at the zoo. It is big and gray. It has a long nose and big ears. It is an elephant. Tom and Lily are curious. They want to know more about the elephant.
+
+They ask Mom and Dad, "What is that animal? What can it do?"
+
+Mom and Dad say, "That is an elephant. It can do many things. It can lift things with its nose. It can spray water. It can make loud noises. It can teach other elephants."
+
+Tom and Lily are amazed. They say, "Wow! The elephant can teach? How can it teach?"
+
+Mom and Dad say, "The elephant can teach by showing and copying. It can show other elephants how to find food, how to play, how to protect themselves. It can copy what other elephants do and learn from them. Elephants are very smart animals."
+
+Tom and Lily are impressed. They say, "We want to learn from the elephant too. Can we watch the elephant teach?"
+
+Mom and Dad say, "Sure, we can watch the elephant teach. But we have to be quiet and respectful. We don't want to disturb the elephant and its friends."
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They follow Mom and Dad to the elephant enclosure. They see the elephant and its friends. They see the elephant lift a branch with its nose and give it to another elephant. They see the elephant spray water on itself and on another elephant. They see the elephant make loud noises and hear other elephants answer. They see the elephant teach and learn.
+
+Tom and Lily are happy. They say, "The elephant is amazing. We learned a lot from the elephant. Thank you, elephant!"
+
+The elephant hears them and flaps its ears. It seems to say, "You're welcome, Tom and Lily!"
+Tom and Lily were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two coal eyes. They were very happy.
+
+But soon they felt cold. Their fingers and toes were numb. They wanted to go inside and drink hot cocoa. But they saw their dad in the yard. He was making a fire with logs.
+
+"Can we help you, dad?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sure, you can help me add more logs to the fire," dad said. "But be careful, they are heavy and hard."
+
+Tom and Lily picked up some logs and carried them to the fire. They put them on top of the other logs. The fire grew bigger and brighter. It made a crackling sound. It was warm and cozy.
+
+"Wow, this is nice," Lily said.
+
+"Yes, it is," dad said. "Now we can sit by the fire and roast some marshmallows. How does that sound?"
+
+"Yummy!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+They sat by the fire and ate the sweet and sticky marshmallows. They felt their cold go away. They smiled at their dad and their snowman. They were very happy.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play on the farm. They see a big cow. The cow is black and white. It has horns and a tail.
+
+"Look, a cow!" Tom says. "Let's go and say hello."
+
+"No, no, no!" Sam says. "The cow is scary. It can hurt us with its horns. Let's stay away."
+
+Tom and Sam disagree. Tom wants to go to the cow. Sam wants to go to the barn. They do not know what to do.
+
+"Come on, Sam," Tom says. "The cow is nice. It gives us milk. It will not hurt us. We can pet it and feed it some grass."
+
+"I don't want to, Tom," Sam says. "The cow is big. It can kick us with its hooves. It will make a loud moo. We can play with the chickens and the pigs. They are small and funny."
+
+Tom and Sam disagree. They are not happy. They do not want to play together.
+
+Then they hear a voice. It is the farmer. He is coming to the field. He has a bucket and a stool.
+
+"Hello, boys," the farmer says. "Are you ready to see how I milk the cow?"
+
+Tom and Sam look at each other. They are curious. They want to see the farmer and the cow.
+
+"Yes, yes, yes!" they say together. "We are ready. Can we help you?"
+
+The farmer smiles. He takes them to the cow. He shows them how to milk the cow. He lets them touch the cow. He tells them the cow's name is Daisy. He gives them some milk to drink.
+
+Tom and Sam are happy. They like the farmer and the cow. They agree. They say thank you to the farmer and the cow. They go to play with the chickens and the pigs. They are friends again.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with toys and sing songs. One day, they find a big box in the park. They open the box and see a shiny thing. It is a music box. It has a button and a handle.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Tom says. "Let's press the button and see what happens."
+
+They press the button and the music box makes a beautiful sound. It plays a song that makes them happy. They dance and clap their hands.
+
+"This is great!" Mia says. "Let's take it home and show our moms and dads."
+
+They try to lift the music box, but it is too heavy. They pull the handle, but it is stuck. They push the button, but it does not work.
+
+"Oh no, what did we do?" Tom says. "We broke the music box!"
+
+They hear a loud noise. It is a man. He is angry. He runs to the box and yells at them.
+
+"Hey, you little brats! What are you doing with my music box? This is mine! I left it here for a minute and you ruined it!"
+
+He grabs the music box and throws it in his truck. He drives away fast.
+
+Tom and Mia are scared and sad. They weep and hug each other. They lost their new toy and made a man mad. They wish they never found the box. They go home and tell their moms and dads what happened. Their moms and dads are not happy. They scold them and send them to bed. They have no dinner and no songs. They have a bad day.
+Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the sand. They had a big bucket and a small bucket. They wanted to make a sand castle with their buckets.
+
+"I want the big bucket," Tom said. "I can make a bigger castle with it."
+
+"No, I want the big bucket," Lily said. "I am more gifted at making castles than you."
+
+They disagreed about who should have the big bucket. They both pulled the bucket and it broke in half. They were sad and angry.
+
+"Look what you did!" Tom said. "Now we have no bucket!"
+
+"It's your fault!" Lily said. "You should have let me have it!"
+
+They started to cry and shout. Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong.
+
+"Why are you crying and shouting?" she asked. "What happened to your bucket?"
+
+"Tom broke it!" Lily said.
+
+"Lily broke it!" Tom said.
+
+They both pointed at each other. Their mom shook her head.
+
+"That's not nice," she said. "You should share your toys and not disagree so much. You are twins, you should love each other."
+
+She hugged them and gave them a kiss. Then she gave them a new bucket. It was bigger and prettier than the old one.
+
+"Wow, thank you, mom!" Tom and Lily said. "This is a great bucket!"
+
+They smiled and hugged their mom. Then they went to make a sand castle together. They used the new bucket and the small bucket. They were happy and agreed that their mom was the best.
+Sara and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Sara had a doll and Ben had a car. They were having fun and making noises.
+
+"Vroom, vroom, my car is fast!" Ben said.
+
+"My doll is pretty, she has a dress and a hat!" Sara said.
+
+They were happy and jolly.
+
+But then, their mom came in with a cake. It had candles on it and a flame. She smiled and said, "Surprise! It's your birthday, Sara!"
+
+Sara was so excited. She clapped her hands and said, "Yay, thank you, mom!"
+
+But Ben was not happy. He felt left out and sad. He wanted a cake too. He wanted to blow the candles and make a wish. He felt angry and jealous.
+
+He grabbed the car and threw it at the cake. The car hit the flame and the cake fell on the floor. The flame went out and the cake was ruined.
+
+Sara and mom gasped. They were shocked and upset. Sara started to cry. She said, "Ben, why did you do that? You ruined my cake!"
+
+Ben felt bad. He realized he had made a mistake. He had embarrassed himself and hurt Sara. He said, "I'm sorry, Sara. I'm sorry, mom. I was mad and silly. I wanted a cake too."
+
+Mom hugged Ben and Sara. She said, "It's okay, Ben. I understand. You can have a cake too. But you have to say sorry to Sara and share with her. And you have to be nice and gentle with your toys. Can you do that?"
+
+Ben nodded. He said, "Yes, mom. I can do that. I'm sorry, Sara. Can I hug you?"
+
+Sara nodded. She said, "Yes, Ben. I can hug you. I forgive you. You are my brother and I love you."
+
+They hugged and said sorry. Mom smiled and said, "That's good. I love you both. Now, let's clean up this mess and get a new cake. And then we can sing and celebrate together. How does that sound?"
+
+They agreed. They said, "That sounds good, mom. Thank you."
+
+They cleaned up and got a new cake. They sang and celebrated. They were happy and jolly again.
+Tom and Sam were best friends. They liked to play with cars and balls and blocks. They also liked to record their voices with a toy phone. They would say funny things and laugh when they heard them.
+
+One day, they found a big exit sign in the park. It was red and shiny and had a button. Tom wanted to press the button and see what would happen. Sam was scared. He said, "No, Tom, don't do that. It might be dangerous. Let's go back and play with our phone."
+
+But Tom did not listen. He said, "Don't be a baby, Sam. It will be fun. Maybe it will make a loud noise or a bright light. Come on, let's try it." He grabbed Sam's hand and pulled him to the exit sign.
+
+Sam tried to get away, but Tom was stronger. He pushed the button and waited. Nothing happened. He pushed it again and again. He said, "This is boring. It doesn't work. Let's go."
+
+But then, they heard a loud siren and saw flashing lights. They saw people running and screaming. They saw smoke and fire. They saw a big truck with a hose and a ladder. They saw a man with a helmet and a coat. He was angry. He said, "What did you do? You set off the alarm. You started the fire. You are in big trouble."
+
+Tom and Sam were scared. They wanted to run away, but they could not. The man grabbed them and took them to his truck. He said, "You are going to the police. They will teach you a lesson. You are bad boys."
+
+Tom and Sam cried. They wished they had not pressed the button. They wished they had listened to Sam. They wished they had played with their phone. They wished they had been loyal friends.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and laugh. They saw a big bow in the sky. It had many colors. They wanted to touch it.
+
+"Look, a bow!" Tom said. "Let's go and see it!"
+
+"But it is too far," Lily said. "We can't reach it."
+
+"Yes, we can," Tom said. "We just have to run fast and jump high."
+
+He took Lily's hand and ran towards the bow. Lily was scared. She saw dark clouds in the sky. She heard thunder and wind. She felt rain on her face.
+
+"Tom, stop!" Lily said. "There is a storm coming. We have to go back home."
+
+"No, we don't," Tom said. "We have to see the bow. It is not normal. It is magic."
+
+He pulled Lily along. Lily cried. She wanted to go back home. She wanted to be safe and warm.
+
+They reached the end of the garden. They saw a fence. They saw a road. They saw cars and trucks and buses. They saw the bow above them. It was very bright and beautiful.
+
+"Wow, we made it!" Tom said. "We are under the bow. We can touch it."
+
+He let go of Lily's hand. He climbed on the fence. He reached for the bow.
+
+"Tom, no!" Lily said. "It is dangerous. Come down!"
+
+But Tom did not listen. He jumped from the fence. He tried to touch the bow. He did not see the car. The car did not see him. The car hit him. Tom fell on the road. He did not move. He did not speak. He did not breathe.
+
+Lily screamed. She ran to Tom. She shook him. She called him. He did not answer. He was gone.
+
+The bow faded. The storm came. The rain poured. Lily was alone. She was wet and cold and sad. She wished she had never seen the bow. She wished she had gone back home. She wished Tom was alive.
+Lily was a little girl who loved to sing. She sang all the time, at home, at school, and in the park. She had a big dream: to be a famous singer and make people happy with her voice.
+
+One day, she saw a poster on the wall. It said: "Do you want to be a star? Come to the big show and sing for us! You can win a prize and get on TV!" Lily was very excited. She ran to her mom and said: "Mom, mom, can I go to the show? I want to sing and be famous!"
+
+Her mom smiled and said: "Of course, my dear. You have a beautiful voice and a brave heart. But you have to practice a lot and listen to your teacher. She can help you get better and better."
+
+Lily nodded and hugged her mom. She went to her room and practiced every day. She sang her favorite songs and learned new ones. She listened to her teacher and followed her tips. She worked hard and had fun.
+
+The day of the show came. Lily wore a pretty dress and a shiny bow. She was nervous but happy. She walked on the stage and saw many people in the seats. She saw her mom and her teacher waving at her. She smiled and took a deep breath. She sang with all her heart and soul. She sang like a bird and a star.
+
+The people clapped and cheered. They loved her voice and her song. They gave her a big prize and a microphone. They said: "You are amazing, Lily! You are a famous singer now! You have a special gift in your ear and in your throat. You make us happy with your voice!"
+
+Lily was very happy. She thanked the people and hugged her mom and her teacher. She said: "I did it, mom! I did it, teacher! I sang and I was famous! I got my dream!"
+
+Her mom and her teacher said: "We are so proud of you, Lily! You did it, indeed! You sang and you were famous! You got your dream!"
+Ben and Lily like to paint. They have many colors and brushes. They paint on paper and on the wall. Mommy and Daddy do not mind. They say painting is fun and good.
+
+One day, it rains a lot. Ben and Lily see many puddles outside. They want to paint the puddles. They put on their boots and coats. They take their paints and brushes. They run outside.
+
+"Look, Lily, this puddle is big and blue. I will paint it yellow," Ben says. He dips his brush in the yellow paint and makes swirls on the puddle.
+
+"Wow, Ben, that is pretty. I will paint this puddle red. It is small and brown. I will make dots on it," Lily says. She dips her brush in the red paint and makes dots on the puddle.
+
+They paint many puddles. They make them different colors and shapes. They laugh and splash. They think painting puddles is easy and fun. They do not see Mommy and Daddy watching them from the window. Mommy and Daddy smile and take a picture. They think Ben and Lily are creative and happy.
+Anna and Ben were gifted twins. They could do many things that other kids could not. They could read big books, play music, and solve puzzles. But they also liked to have fun and play games.
+
+One evening, they decided to escape from their room and explore the house. They waited until their mom and dad were asleep, then they tiptoed down the stairs. They saw many things that made them curious. They saw a shiny vase, a soft rug, and a big clock.
+
+"Look, Ben, a clock!" Anna said. "It tells the time. Do you know what time it is?"
+
+Ben looked at the clock. He saw two hands and twelve numbers. He remembered what their mom had taught them. "It is nine o'clock," he said. "That means it is late. We should go back to our room soon."
+
+But Anna wanted to see more. She saw a door that was slightly open. She peeked inside. She saw a dark room with a big bed and a closet. She recognized it as their mom and dad's room. She saw something shiny on the bed. She walked inside and picked it up. It was a necklace with a blue stone.
+
+"Wow, Ben, look at this!" Anna said. "It is so pretty. It must be a gift for mom. Maybe for her birthday."
+
+Ben followed Anna into the room. He saw the necklace and agreed that it was pretty. But he also saw something else. He saw a shadow moving in the closet. He felt scared. He whispered to Anna, "Anna, we should go. There is something in the closet. It might be a monster."
+
+Anna looked at the closet and saw the shadow too. She felt scared too. She dropped the necklace and ran to the door. Ben ran after her. They heard a loud noise behind them. They turned around and saw their dad coming out of the closet. He was wearing a mask and a cape. He was not a monster. He was playing a trick on them.
+
+"Boo!" he said. "I got you, you little escape artists. What are you doing in our room?"
+
+Anna and Ben were surprised and relieved. They laughed and hugged their dad. They said they were sorry for sneaking out of their room. They said they were curious and wanted to see the necklace.
+
+Their dad smiled and said, "The necklace is a gift for mom, but it is also a gift for you. It is a family heirloom. It belonged to your grandma. She was also gifted, like you. She wanted you to have it when you grow up. But you have to promise me something. You have to promise me that you will always use your gifts for good, and not for mischief. And you have to promise me that you will not escape from your room again, at least not until morning."
+
+Anna and Ben nodded and said they promised. They said they loved their dad and their mom and their grandma. They said they were proud of their gifts and would use them for good. They said they were sorry for causing trouble.
+
+Their dad said he loved them too and he was not mad at them. He said he was proud of them too and he was glad they were curious and adventurous. He said he was just having some fun with them. He said he hoped they learned their lesson.
+
+He took them back to their room and tucked them in. He kissed them goodnight and turned off the light. He said, "Sleep well, my gifted twins. And don't let the bedbugs bite."
+
+Anna and Ben smiled and said goodnight. They closed their eyes and fell asleep. They dreamed of the necklace and the clock and the vase and the rug. They dreamed of their mom and their dad and their grandma. They dreamed of their gifts and their adventures. They dreamed of the evening they escaped.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They had a big castle made of sand and sticks. They pretended to be a king and a queen.
+
+"Look, Lily, our castle is so nice!" Tom said.
+
+"Yes, Tom, it is. But watch out, there are enemies coming!" Lily said. She pointed to some ants crawling on the grass.
+
+"Oh no, what can we do?" Tom asked.
+
+"We have to defend our castle. Quick, get some stones and throw them at the ants!" Lily said.
+
+Tom and Lily picked up some stones and threw them at the ants. They made loud noises and shouted, "Go away, ants! This is our castle!"
+
+But the ants did not go away. They kept coming closer and closer. They climbed on the sand and sticks. They made holes in the castle.
+
+"Tom, Lily, come inside, it's going to rain!" their mom called from the house.
+
+Tom and Lily looked at the sky. It was dark and gray. They felt some drops of water on their faces. It was cool and wet.
+
+"OK, mom, we're coming!" Tom said.
+
+They ran to the house, leaving their castle behind. The ants took over the castle. They made it their home.
+
+"Bye, bye, castle!" Lily said. "Maybe we can make a new one tomorrow."
+
+"Maybe, Lily, maybe. But we have to surrender to the ants today. They are too many and too strong." Tom said.
+
+They hugged each other and went inside. They hoped the rain would stop soon. They wanted to play in the garden again.
+Tom was a soldier who liked to fight. He had a big gun and a green hat. He was not modest. He always said he was the best soldier in the world. He liked to tease the other soldiers who were not as strong or fast as him. He made them feel bad.
+
+One day, Tom had to go to a new place to fight. He did not know the place very well. He did not listen to the map or the boss. He said he knew everything. He ran ahead of the other soldiers and teased them. He said they were slow and scared.
+
+But Tom was wrong. The new place had many traps and enemies. Tom did not see them. He stepped on a trap and it made a loud boom. Tom fell down and hurt his leg. He dropped his gun and his hat. He cried for help.
+
+The other soldiers heard Tom's cry. They wanted to help him, but they were too far away. They also saw the enemies coming. They had to hide and fight. They could not reach Tom. Tom was alone and scared.
+
+The enemies found Tom. They saw his gun and his hat. They knew he was a soldier. They did not like soldiers. They were angry and mean. They took Tom away. They did not help him. They hurt him more.
+
+Tom never saw his friends or his home again. He was sorry for being not modest and for teasing the other soldiers. He wished he had been nicer and smarter. But it was too late. Tom had a bad ending.
+Jill and Tom were playing with their dolls in the living room. They liked to pretend that their dolls were friends who went on adventures together. Jill had a pink doll with long hair and a dress. Tom had a blue doll with short hair and a hat.
+
+"Let's go to the park with our dolls," Jill said. "We can swing and slide and have a picnic."
+
+"Okay," Tom said. "But first we have to pack some food and drinks for our dolls."
+
+They went to the kitchen and found some crackers, cheese, and juice. They put them in a small bag and carried it back to the living room. They put their dolls in a toy car and pushed it to the door.
+
+"Wait," Tom said. "We forgot something."
+
+"What?" Jill asked.
+
+Tom ran to his room and came back with a photo. It was a photo of him and Jill when they were babies. They were smiling and holding hands.
+
+"This is a memory," Tom said. "It shows us when we were little. I like this memory. It makes me happy."
+
+"Me too," Jill said. "You are my best friend. Can I see the memory?"
+
+Tom gave her the photo and she looked at it. She saw their faces and their clothes and their toys. She saw how much they had grown and changed.
+
+"We are different now," Jill said. "But we are still friends."
+
+"Yes," Tom said. "We are flexible. That means we can change and still be the same."
+
+They hugged and put the photo in the bag with the food and drinks. They took their dolls and their car and went to the park. They had a lot of fun and made more memories. They paused sometimes to look at the photo and smile. They were happy.
+Tom and Sue wanted to play outside in the evening. They asked their mom if they could go.
+
+"Please, mom, can we go outside? It is still light and we want to play with our ball," Tom said.
+
+"No, you cannot go outside. It is too late and too rough. There are big dogs and cars and bad people outside. You have to stay inside and get ready for bed," mom said.
+
+"But mom, we are not tired and we are not scared. We can be careful and have fun. Please, mom, please allow us to go," Sue said.
+
+Mom was angry and said no again. She said they had to listen to her or they would get a big punishment. Tom and Sue were sad and mad. They did not want to listen to mom. They wanted to play outside.
+
+When mom went to the kitchen, Tom and Sue sneaked out of the door. They ran to the park with their ball. They thought they were smart and brave. They did not see the big dog that was hiding behind a tree. The big dog saw them and their ball. The big dog was hungry and angry. He barked and ran towards them.
+
+Tom and Sue were scared and screamed. They tried to run away, but the big dog was faster. He bit Tom's leg and Sue's arm. He tore their ball and their clothes. He made them bleed and cry.
+
+Mom heard their screams and ran to the park. She saw the big dog and her children. She was shocked and scared. She shouted at the big dog and threw a stick at him. The big dog ran away, but he had hurt Tom and Sue a lot.
+
+Mom hugged Tom and Sue and called for help. She was sorry and sad. She wished she had not allowed them to go outside. She wished they had listened to her. She said they were very naughty and very lucky. She said they would have to go to the hospital and get stitches. She said they would have to stay in bed for a long time. She said they would have no more fun in the evening. Tom and Sue were sorry and sad too. They wished they had not gone outside. They wished they had listened to mom. They said they were very sorry and very unlucky. They said they had no more fun in the evening.
+Lily and Max were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs and rocks. Sometimes they pretended they were dinosaurs and roared at each other.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a big bone!" Max said, holding up a thick stick. "Maybe it is from a dinosaur!"
+
+"Wow, Max, that is cool!" Lily said. "Can I see it?"
+
+Max gave Lily the stick and she pretended it was a dinosaur horn. She put it on her head and ran around the garden.
+
+"Roar! I am a triceratops!" she said.
+
+Max laughed and chased her. He pretended he was a t-rex and snapped his teeth.
+
+"Roar! I am going to eat you!" he said.
+
+Lily ran away from Max and hid behind a bush. She saw something shiny and colorful in the bush. She moved the leaves and saw a beautiful flower. It was pink and yellow and had many petals. It looked like a star.
+
+"Look, Max, I found a flower!" she said. "It is so pretty! It is blooming!"
+
+Max came over and saw the flower. He smiled and smelled it.
+
+"It is pretty, Lily. And it smells nice too!" he said. "Do you think dinosaurs liked flowers?"
+
+"I don't know, Max. Maybe some did. Maybe they gave them to their friends." Lily said.
+
+Lily and Max decided to pick the flower and give it to their mom. They thought she would like it too. They ran inside the house and showed her their treasure.
+
+"Mom, look what we found in the garden!" they said. "A flower that is blooming!"
+
+Mom hugged them and thanked them. She put the flower in a vase and said it was the best gift ever.
+
+Lily and Max were happy. They loved their mom and their garden. And they loved to play dinosaurs.
+Ben and Mia are young. They like to play with toys. One day, they find a box of matches in the kitchen. They think matches are fun.
+
+"Look, Ben, matches can make fire!" Mia says. She takes a match and strikes it on the box. The match makes a bright flame.
+
+"Wow, fire is pretty!" Ben says. He takes another match and strikes it too. He holds the match close to his face.
+
+"Be careful, Ben, fire is hot!" Mia says. She sees a paper on the table. She puts her match on the paper. The paper catches fire.
+
+"Look, Mia, fire can spread!" Ben says. He sees a curtain on the window. He puts his match on the curtain. The curtain catches fire too.
+
+"Uh-oh, fire is bad!" Mia says. She smells smoke. She hears a beep. She sees a red light on the wall. It is the fire alarm.
+
+"Help, help, fire!" Ben and Mia shout. They run out of the kitchen. They see their mom and dad. They are angry and scared.
+
+"Ben, Mia, what did you do?" Mom says. She grabs a fire extinguisher. She sprays the fire in the kitchen.
+
+"Dad, we are sorry, we played with matches!" Ben says. He cries.
+
+"Mia, we are sorry, we made fire!" Mia says. She cries too.
+
+"Ben, Mia, matches are not toys!" Dad says. He hugs them. "Fire is dangerous! You could have burned the house! You could have hurt yourselves!"
+
+"Mom, Dad, we are sorry, we did not know!" Ben and Mia say. They hug them back.
+
+"Ben, Mia, we love you, but you have to be careful!" Mom says. She kisses them. "Fire is not a game! You have to listen to us!"
+
+"Mom, Dad, we love you, we will listen to you!" Ben and Mia say. They promise.
+
+Mom and Dad take Ben and Mia to their room. They give them some books and puzzles. They tell them to stay there until dinner. They say they will talk more later.

+
+She walked to the girl and said, "Hi, I am Lily. What is your name?"
+
+The girl smiled and said, "I am Rose. I like your dolls. They are very organized."
+
+Lily was happy. She said, "Thank you. Do you want to play with me and my dolls?"

+
+Lily and Rose became good friends. They played with their dolls and flowers every day. They were very happy.
+Lily likes to read books with her mom. They sit on the couch and mom reads the words to Lily. Lily points to the pictures and says what she sees. Sometimes she tries to say the words too, but they are hard.
+
+One day, they read a book about a dog and a cat. The dog and the cat are friends and they play together. Lily likes the dog and the cat. She smiles and laughs when they do funny things. She wants to pet them.
+
+When the book is over, Lily asks mom if they can get a dog and a cat. Mom says no, they have no room for a dog and a cat. Lily is sad. She wants a friend to play with.

+Ben and Lily are friends who like to play in the park. One day, they see a big, fat kangaroo near the swings. Ben wants to go and touch it, but Lily is scared.
+
+"Let's go and say hello to the kangaroo!" Ben says.
+
+"No, it might bite us or kick us!" Lily says.
+
+They start to quarrel and shout at each other. The kangaroo hears them and hops away.
+
+"See, you scared it away!" Ben says.
+
+"No, you did! You were too loud and rude!" Lily says.
+
+They are so angry that they don't want to play together anymore. They sit on opposite sides of the park and sulk.
+
+A nice lady sees them and comes over. She smiles and says, "Why are you so sad? You have such a beautiful park and a sunny day to enjoy."
+
+Ben and Lily tell her about the kangaroo and their quarrel. The lady listens and nods.
+
+"I understand. It's normal to have different opinions and feelings, but it's not nice to fight with your friends. Maybe you can say sorry to each other and share what you like and don't like about the kangaroo. Maybe you can learn something new and have fun together."
+
+Ben and Lily think about what the lady says. They realize that they miss each other and that they were both a bit silly. They walk towards each other and say sorry. They hug and make up.
+
+They decide to play on the swings and talk about the kangaroo. They wonder where it came from and what it eats and how it jumps. They laugh and have a good time.
+
+They thank the lady for her advice and invite her to join them. The lady agrees and they all play happily in the park. They hope to see the kangaroo again someday.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play a lot. They had many toys and games in their room, but their favorite thing was to pretend they were spies. They would hide under the bed, behind the curtains, or in the closet, and whisper secrets to each other.
+
+One day, their mom told them it was time for a nap. They did not want to nap, they wanted to play. But mom said they had to nap, or they would be too tired later. She gave them each a hug and a kiss, and set an alarm on the clock. She said the alarm would make a loud noise when it was time to wake up.
+
+Lily and Ben got into their beds, but they did not close their eyes. They waited for mom to leave, and then they got up and sneaked to the closet. They found their spy hats and spy glasses, and put them on. They decided to go on a mission to find the alarm and turn it off, so they could play longer.
+
+They crawled out of the closet, and looked around. They saw the clock on the dresser, but it was too high for them to reach. They needed a plan. They saw a chair near the door, and a book on the floor. They had an idea. They pushed the chair to the dresser, and put the book on the seat. Then, Ben climbed on the book, and Lily climbed on Ben's shoulders. They were almost there.
+
+But then, something went wrong. The book slipped, and Ben lost his balance. He and Lily fell to the ground, with a loud thud. The alarm went off, and mom came running. She saw the twins on the floor, with their spy hats and spy glasses, and the chair and the book. She was worried. She asked them if they were hurt, and what they were doing.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other, and then at mom. They felt sorry. They said they were sorry, and that they were trying to turn off the alarm, so they could play longer. They said they did not want to nap, they wanted to be spies.
+
+Mom smiled, and hugged them. She said she understood, but they still needed to nap, because napping was good for them. She said they could be spies after they woke up, and she would play with them too. She said she loved them, and they were very clever and brave. She helped them back to their beds, and turned off the alarm. She said she would be back soon, and kissed them goodnight.
+
+Lily and Ben closed their eyes, and snuggled under the covers. They felt happy, and sleepy. They dreamed of being spies, and having fun with mom. They napped, and they napped well.
+Lily and Sam were playing in the park with their mom. They liked to swing, slide and run on the grass. They were having a lot of fun. But then, Lily felt dizzy. She had to sit down on a bench and drink some water. She did not like feeling dizzy.
+
+Mom was worried about Lily. She took out her phone and called the doctor. She told the doctor that Lily was dizzy and asked what to do. The doctor said to order a taxi and go to the clinic. He said he would check Lily and make her feel better.
+
+Lily was scared to go to the clinic. She did not like the taxi. It was loud and fast. She held Sam's hand and hugged her mom. Sam tried to cheer her up. He said they would play again when Lily was well. He said he had a memory of a funny joke that he heard at school. He told Lily the joke and made her laugh.
+
+When they got to the clinic, the doctor was nice. He smiled and said hello. He asked Lily some questions and looked at her eyes and ears. He said Lily had an ear infection. He said it was not serious and he gave her some medicine. He said the medicine would help her ear and stop the dizzy feeling.
+
+Lily was glad to hear that. She thanked the doctor and said sorry for being scared. The doctor said it was okay to be scared sometimes. He said he was proud of her for being brave. He gave her a sticker and a lollipop. Lily smiled and said she felt better. She was ready to go home and play with Sam and mom. She hoped she would not feel dizzy again.
+Lily liked to watch the birds in the park. She saw them fly and sing and hop on the grass. She wanted to have a bird friend. She saw a blue bird in a cage at the pet shop. She asked her mom to buy it for her.
+
+Mom said no. She said birds belong in the sky, not in cages. She said Lily could not take care of a bird. She said Lily had to be compassionate and let the bird be free. Lily was sad. She did not understand.
+
+One day, Lily went to the park with her dad. She saw the same blue bird in the cage at the pet shop. It was on a bench, with a sign that said "Free". Lily was happy. She thought the bird was a gift for her. She ran to the bench and grabbed the cage. She did not see the man who left it there.
+
+The man was bad. He did not like birds. He put a trap in the cage. When Lily opened the cage, the trap snapped and hurt the bird. The bird cried and bled. Lily cried too. She did not mean to hurt the bird. She wanted to help it. But it was too late. The bird died. Lily was very sad. She learned a hard lesson. She wished she listened to her mom.
+Lila and Tom are playing with blocks. They want to build a big tower. They have many blocks of different shapes and colors.
+
+"Look, I have a red square block. It fits on top of the blue square block. Now the tower is taller." Tom says.
+
+"Good job, Tom. I have a yellow triangle block. It fits on the side of the green rectangle block. Now the tower is wider." Lila says.
+
+They keep adding more blocks to their tower. They are having fun. They want to make the tower as high and wide as they can.
+
+But then, they run out of blocks. They look at their tower. It is very big and colorful. They are proud of their success.
+
+"Wow, we did it. We built a big tower. It is the best tower ever." Lila says.
+
+"Yes, we did. We are good builders. It is a beautiful tower." Tom says.
+
+They hug each other and smile. They are happy.
+
+Then, they hear Mom calling them. It is time for lunch. They run to the kitchen. Mom has made them sandwiches and fruit. They are hungry.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. The food looks delicious." Lila says.
+
+"Yes, thank you, Mom. The food smells delicious." Tom says.
+
+They eat their lunch and enjoy it. They tell Mom about their tower. Mom says she is proud of them.
+
+After lunch, they go back to their tower. They play with it some more. They have a great day.
+Anna liked to play in the garden. She liked to see the flowers and the bugs. She liked to touch the grass and the dirt. But she did not like the leaves. She thought they were messy and ugly. She wanted the garden to be organized.
+
+One day, she decided to tear all the leaves from the plants. She pulled and ripped and threw them on the ground. She thought she was making the garden better. She did not see the plants getting hurt. She did not hear the birds and the bees getting angry.
+
+Soon, her mom came out and saw what she had done. She was very sad and mad. She told Anna to stop tearing the leaves. She told her that the leaves were important for the plants and the animals. She told her that the garden was beautiful with the leaves. She told her that tearing was bad and gentle was good.
+
+Anna felt sorry. She did not want to make her mom sad and mad. She did not want to hurt the plants and the animals. She did not understand why the leaves were important and beautiful. She wanted to learn more. She asked her mom to teach her about the garden.
+
+Her mom smiled and hugged her. She told her that she loved her. She told her that she was happy that she wanted to learn. She told her that they could fix the garden together. She told her that they could find new ways to play and be organized. She told her that they could have fun with the leaves.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play games. They were very competitive and always wanted to win. One day, they found a shiny silver spoon in the kitchen. They decided to play a game with it.
+
+"Let's see who can taste the spoon the longest," Lily said. "The one who stops first is the loser."
+
+"OK, I will win," Ben said. "I can taste anything."
+
+They put the spoon in their mouths and started to count. One, two, three, four, five. The spoon was cold and hard and tasted like metal. Lily did not like it, but she did not want to lose. Ben did not like it either, but he wanted to show he was brave.
+
+They kept counting. Six, seven, eight, nine, ten. The spoon started to hurt their tongues and make them feel sick. Lily felt like crying, but she did not want to give up. Ben felt like spitting, but he did not want to look weak.
+
+They kept counting. Eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen. The spoon was too much for them. They could not taste anything else. They could not breathe well. They could not talk. They could not stop.
+
+They fell to the floor, still holding the spoon in their mouths. They did not move. They did not win. They did not play anymore.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. But Lila saw something shiny in the grass. It was a cord. She picked it up and ran to Ben.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a cord. It is shiny and long. Do you want to play with it?" Lila asked.
+
+Ben looked at the cord. He was curious. He nodded and took the cord from Lila. He wrapped it around his hand and pulled it. It made a funny sound.
+
+"Wow, this cord is fun. It is like a snake. Watch me, Lila, I can make it move." Ben said.
+
+Lila watched Ben. She smiled and clapped. She wanted to try the cord too. She reached for it. But Ben did not let go. He wanted to keep the cord.
+
+"No, Lila, this is my cord. You can't have it. Go find your own cord." Ben said.
+
+Lila was sad and angry. She did not like Ben's words. She wanted to share the cord. She tried to grab the cord from Ben. They started to fight. They pulled and pushed and yelled.
+
+But the cord was not a toy. It was a hidden trap. It was very strong and sharp. It cut Ben's hand and made him bleed. It hurt a lot. Ben screamed and dropped the cord. Lila saw the blood and was scared. She ran to get help.
+
+But it was too late. The cord had done a lot of damage. Ben's hand could not heal. He had to go to the hospital. He lost his hand. He was very sad and angry. He blamed Lila for the cord. He did not want to be her friend anymore.
+
+Lila was very sorry and sad. She did not mean to hurt Ben. She wanted to be his friend. She wanted to say sorry. But Ben did not listen. He did not forgive her. He did not talk to her anymore.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Tom were playing with blocks in the living room. They wanted to make a big stack of blocks, as high as they could. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes. They worked hard and had fun.
+
+"Look, Lily, our stack is so tall!" Tom said, pointing at their creation.
+
+"Yes, Tom, it is amazing! We are so good at stacking blocks!" Lily said, smiling.
+
+They were very proud of their stack. They believed it was the best stack ever. They wanted to show it to their mom and dad.
+
+But then, Max, their big brother, came into the living room. He saw their stack and laughed.
+
+"What is this? A cheap stack of blocks? This is boring and silly. You are babies. I can make a better stack than you!" Max said, in a mean voice.
+
+He pushed their stack with his hand. The blocks fell down and made a loud noise. Lily and Tom cried. They were very sad and angry.
+
+"Max, you are so mean! Why did you do that? We worked hard on our stack! We hate you!" Lily and Tom said, in a loud voice.
+
+Max did not care. He laughed again and walked away. He did not say sorry. He did not help them pick up the blocks.
+
+Lily and Tom hugged each other. They wished their mom and dad were home. They wished Max would be nice to them. They wished they could make their stack again. But they could not. Their stack was gone. Their day was ruined. The end.
+Tom and Lily are playing in the garden. They see a big box. They want to open it and see what is inside.
+
+"Let's open it!" Tom says.
+
+"OK!" Lily says.
+
+They pull and push the box. It is very heavy. They work hard. They hear a loud noise. The box falls down and breaks. Tom and Lily see many things inside. They see books, toys, clothes and a big snake.
+
+"Wow!" Tom says.
+
+"Look at the snake!" Lily says.
+
+The snake is green and yellow. It has a long tail. It looks at Tom and Lily. It hisses.
+
+"Is it angry?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is scared." Lily says.
+
+They want to touch the snake. They think it is harmless. They move closer to the snake. The snake moves too. It bites Tom's hand. Tom screams.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Tom says.
+
+Lily is scared. She runs to the house. She calls for mom. Mom comes out. She sees Tom and the snake. She is shocked.
+
+"Tom! What happened?" Mom asks.
+
+"The snake bit me!" Tom says.
+
+Mom takes Tom inside. She puts a bandage on his hand. She calls the doctor. The doctor comes. He checks Tom's hand. He says the snake is not poisonous. He says Tom will be fine.
+
+"Thank you, doctor." Mom says.
+
+"You're welcome. But be careful next time. Don't touch snakes. They can be dangerous." The doctor says.
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They say sorry to mom. They hug mom. They learn a lesson. They don't play with snakes anymore. They play with other things. They are happy.
+Lily was very sad. She had a new shirt with a pink flower on it. She liked her shirt very much. But when she was playing outside, she fell down and tore her shirt. The flower was gone and there was a big hole in her shirt.
+
+She ran to her mom and showed her the shirt. She wept and wept. She said, "Mom, look at my shirt! It is broken! I want my flower back!"
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. It was an accident. You can't fix the shirt, but you can have another one. Do you want to choose a new shirt from the store?"
+
+Lily nodded. She wiped her tears and smiled a little. She said, "Yes, please. Can I have a shirt with a butterfly on it?"
+
+Her mom said, "Sure, let's go to the store and see what they have. But first, you need to wash your face and hands. They are dirty and sour from your tears and the dirt."
+
+Lily agreed. She went to the bathroom and washed her face and hands. She felt better. She said, "Thank you, mom. You are the best."
+
+Her mom said, "You're welcome, Lily. You are my sweet girl. Now, let's go and find you a new shirt."
+Lila and Tom were playing in the backyard. They had a big box that they pretended was a spaceship. They wanted to go to a new planet and have fun.
+
+"Ready to blast off?" Tom asked.
+
+"Yes, let's go!" Lila said.
+
+They closed the box and made loud noises like a rocket. They imagined they were flying through the sky and the stars. They counted down from ten to one and then opened the box.
+
+"Wow, we made it!" Tom said. "Look, there's the new planet!"
+
+They got out of the box and looked around. The new planet was very dry and dusty. There were no trees, no flowers, no animals, no water. Only rocks and sand.
+
+"This planet is boring," Lila said. "There's nothing to do here."
+
+"Maybe we can find something interesting," Tom said. "Let's explore."
+
+They walked around the dry planet, but they only saw more rocks and sand. They started to feel hot and thirsty. They missed their backyard, where they had a swing, a slide, a pool, and a lemonade stand.
+
+"Tom, I want to go back," Lila said. "I don't like this planet."
+
+"Me too," Tom said. "This was a bad idea. I regret coming here."
+
+They ran back to their box and got inside. They closed the box and made loud noises like a rocket. They imagined they were flying back to Earth. They counted up from one to ten and then opened the box.
+
+"Yay, we're home!" Lila said.
+
+"Home sweet home," Tom said.
+
+They got out of the box and hugged each other. They were happy to see their backyard again. They decided to never go to the dry planet again. They played with their swing, their slide, their pool, and their lemonade stand. They had fun.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They saw a big, pink balloon in the sky. It was very pretty and shiny.
+
+"I want the balloon!" Lily said. "It is my favorite color."
+
+"Me too!" Max said. "It looks fun and mysterious. Maybe it has a surprise inside."
+
+They ran after the balloon, but it was too high and too fast. They could not catch it. They felt sad and tired.
+
+"Hey, look!" Lily said. "There is a man with a lot of balloons. Maybe he will give us one."
+
+They ran to the man and asked him nicely. He smiled and said, "Sure, you can have a balloon. Which one do you want?"
+
+Lily and Max looked at the balloons. There were many colors and shapes. But they only wanted one.
+
+"The pink one!" they said together. "Please, can we have the pink one?"
+
+The man nodded and gave them the pink balloon. It was big and round and had a string. They thanked the man and held the balloon.
+
+They were very happy and excited. They wondered what was inside the balloon. Maybe it was a toy, or a candy, or a star.
+
+They decided to share the balloon and take turns holding it. They played with the balloon all day. They did not let it go. They loved the pink, mysterious balloon. It was their best friend.
+Sara and Ben are playing with paper. They like to fold the paper and make shapes. Sara folds a paper into a plane. Ben folds a paper into a boat.
+
+"Look, I made a plane!" Sara says. "It can fly in the air!"
+
+"Look, I made a boat!" Ben says. "It can sail in the water!"
+
+They take their paper shapes and go outside. They find a big puddle. Ben puts his boat in the puddle. It floats on the water.
+
+"Wow, your boat is cool!" Sara says. "Can I try it?"
+
+"Sure, you can try it!" Ben says. "But you have to give me your plane!"
+
+They swap their paper shapes. Sara puts the boat in the puddle. Ben throws the plane in the air.
+
+But the plane does not fly very far. It falls to the ground.
+
+"Oh no, your plane is broken!" Sara says. "I'm sorry, Ben!"
+
+"It's okay, Sara!" Ben says. "Maybe it needs some fuel!"
+
+They look around for some fuel. They see a pink flower. It smells nice.
+
+"Maybe this is fuel!" Sara says. "It is pink and pretty!"
+
+They pick the flower and put it in the plane. They try to throw it again.
+
+But the plane still does not fly. It falls to the ground again.
+
+"Oops, this is not fuel!" Ben says. "This is a flower!"
+
+They laugh. They do not mind. They like the flower. They put it in their hair.
+
+They go back to the puddle. They play with the boat. They have fun. They are happy.
+Lily was a big girl who liked to perform. She liked to sing and dance and make funny faces. She had a little brother, Ben, who was still a baby. He slept in a crib in their room.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to perform for Ben. She climbed on a chair and reached for his crib. She wanted to show him how she could jump and spin and clap. She thought he would laugh and clap too.
+
+But Ben was not happy. He was scared of Lily. He did not like her loud voice and her fast movements. He started to cry and scream. He wanted Lily to go away.
+
+Lily did not listen to Ben. She thought he was silly. She wanted to perform more. She jumped on his crib and tried to fit inside. She wanted to hug him and make him smile.
+
+But the crib was not strong enough for Lily. It broke under her weight. Lily and Ben fell to the floor. They both got hurt. They both cried and screamed louder.
+
+Mom and Dad heard the noise and ran to their room. They saw the broken crib and the hurt children. They were angry and sad. They scolded Lily and took her and Ben to the doctor. Lily felt sorry and ashamed. She wished she had not tried to perform for Ben. She wished she had been a good sister.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and hide. They saw a huge tree with many leaves. They wanted to climb the tree and see the sky.
+
+"Let's go up the tree," Tom said. "It will be fun."
+
+"OK," Lily said. "But be careful. The tree is very high."
+
+They held each other's hands and climbed the tree. They found a big branch to sit on. They looked at the birds and the clouds. They felt happy.
+
+But then the sky became dark and the wind became strong. They heard thunder and saw lightning. They felt scared.
+
+"It's going to rain," Lily said. "We have to go down the tree."
+
+"But how?" Tom said. "The branch is slippery and the wind is pushing us."
+
+They hugged each other and cried. They wished they had a blanket to keep them warm and safe.
+
+Then they heard a voice from below. It was their mom. She had a huge blanket in her arms.
+
+"Tom, Lily, where are you?" she shouted. "Come down quickly. I have a blanket for you."
+
+"Mom, we're here," Tom shouted back. "We're on the tree. Help us, please."
+
+Mom saw them and ran to the tree. She threw the blanket over the branch and told them to grab it. She pulled them down gently and wrapped them in the blanket. She kissed them and hugged them.
+
+"Are you OK?" she asked. "You should not climb the tree when it's stormy. It's dangerous."
+
+"We're sorry, Mom," Tom and Lily said. "We were having fun, but then we got scared. Thank you for the blanket. It's so soft and warm."
+
+Mom smiled and took them inside the house. She gave them some cookies and milk. She told them a story about a brave knight and a friendly dragon. They listened and smiled. They felt happy again. They closed their eyes and fell asleep in the blanket.
+Anna liked to look at small things with her microscope. She had a microscope from her dad, who was a scientist. She could see bugs, leaves, and hairs very big and clear. She thought it was fun and amazing.
+
+One day, she brought her microscope to school. She wanted to show her friends what she could see. But some of the other kids were not nice. They laughed at her microscope and said it was boring and silly. They took it from her and played with it roughly. They dropped it and broke it. Anna was very sad and angry.
+
+She told her teacher what happened. The teacher was sorry and scolded the mean kids. She said they had to say sorry to Anna and help her fix her microscope. She also said they had to learn to respect other people's things and interests. She said everyone is different and has different hobbies and talents. She said that is what makes us special and interesting.
+
+The mean kids felt ashamed and sorry. They apologized to Anna and helped her glue the broken parts. They also asked her to show them what she could see with her microscope. They became curious and amazed. They saw how beautiful and complex the small things were. They learned something new and fun.
+
+Anna was happy and forgave them. She shared her microscope with them and taught them some facts. They became her friends and played with her microscope together. They also tried other hobbies and activities that they did not know before. They became more open and kind. They learned that being different is not bad, but good.
+Anna loved to watch the aeroplanes in the sky. She wanted to fly in one and see the clouds and the birds. She asked her mom if they could go on an aeroplane someday.
+
+"Maybe, Anna, maybe. But aeroplanes are very expensive and we need to save money for other things," her mom said.
+
+Anna was sad. She wished she had enough money to buy an aeroplane ticket. She wondered what it was like to be in the air.
+
+One day, she saw a poster in the library. It said there was a contest for kids to draw their dream aeroplane. The winner would get a free ride on a real aeroplane. Anna was excited. She loved to draw and she had many ideas for her dream aeroplane.
+
+She asked her mom if she could enter the contest. Her mom said yes and gave her some paper and crayons. Anna drew a big, colorful aeroplane with wings that could flap like a bird and a tail that could wag like a dog. She also drew herself and her mom smiling in the window.
+
+She wrote her name and age on the paper and gave it to the librarian. The librarian said she would announce the winner in a week.
+
+Anna waited and hoped. She dreamed of flying in her dream aeroplane.
+
+The day of the announcement came. Anna and her mom went to the library. There were many other kids and their parents there. The librarian had a big envelope in her hand.
+
+She opened the envelope and read the name of the winner.
+
+"Anna!"
+
+Anna was shocked. She had won the contest. She had won the aeroplane ride. She was so happy. She ran to the librarian and hugged her.
+
+"Thank you, thank you!" she said.
+
+The librarian smiled and gave her a certificate and a ticket. She said the aeroplane ride would be next week and she would call her mom to arrange the details.
+
+Anna showed her mom the certificate and the ticket. Her mom was proud of her.
+
+"Wow, Anna, you are so brave and talented. You drew a wonderful aeroplane. I'm so happy for you. Are you ready to fly in the sky?" her mom asked.
+
+Anna nodded. She was ready. She was brave. She was going to fly in her dream aeroplane.
+Anna and Ben like to play with their toy planes. They make them soar in the air and pretend they are pilots. They have a lot of fun together.
+
+One day, they see a group of birds flying in the sky. They are big and black and make loud noises. Anna and Ben want to see them closer. They run to the window and look up.
+
+"Wow, look at them!" Anna says. "They are so high and fast!"
+
+"I wonder where they are going," Ben says. "Maybe they are going to a faraway place."
+
+They watch the birds for a long time. They try to count them and name them. They make up stories about them.
+
+But then, they hear a knock on the door. It is their mom. She comes in and sees them at the window.
+
+"What are you doing, kids?" she asks.
+
+"We are watching the birds, mom," Anna says. "They are so cool!"
+
+Mom smiles and nods. She knows they are curious and nosy. She likes that they are interested in nature.
+
+"Would you like to learn more about the birds?" she asks.
+
+"Yes, please!" Anna and Ben say.
+
+Mom takes a book from the shelf. It has pictures and words about different kinds of birds. She sits with them on the couch and reads to them. Anna and Ben listen and ask questions. They learn a lot of new things.
+
+They are happy and grateful. They hug their mom and thank her. They still like to play with their toy planes, but they also like to watch and learn about the real birds. They think they are amazing and beautiful. They hope to see them again.
+Lily likes to clap. She claps when she is happy, when she hears music, when she sees something funny. She claps with her hands, with her feet, with her toys. She claps all the time.
+
+One day, she hears a loud noise from next door. She runs to the window and sees her neighbor, Mr. Lee. He is playing a big drum. He hits it with sticks and makes a boom boom sound. Lily thinks it is incredible. She claps and claps and claps.
+
+Mr. Lee sees Lily and smiles. He waves to her and says hello. He asks her if she likes his drum. Lily nods and says yes. She says she likes to clap. Mr. Lee says he likes to clap too. He says he has a surprise for her.
+
+He goes inside his house and comes back with a small drum. He gives it to Lily and says it is a gift. He says they can play drums together. Lily is very happy. She says thank you and hugs him. She takes the drum and hits it with her hands. She makes a tap tap sound.
+
+Mr. Lee plays his big drum and Lily plays her small drum. They make music and have fun. They clap and clap and clap. They are the best neighbors ever.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes the ball went too far and they had to look for it in the grass or behind the trees.
+
+One time, the ball went over the fence and into the street. Tom and Lily ran to the fence and saw a big car stop near the ball. A grumpy lady got out of the car and picked up the ball. She looked at Tom and Lily and said, "Is this your ball?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They wanted their ball back. They were worried that the lady would keep it or throw it away.
+
+The lady frowned and said, "You should be more careful. This is a busy street. You could get hurt by a car. Why are you playing here?"
+
+Tom and Lily did not know what to say. They were sorry that their ball went over the fence. They did not mean to make the lady angry.
+
+The lady sighed and said, "Here, take your ball. But don't let it happen again. Go play somewhere safer. And say thank you."
+
+Tom and Lily took their ball and said, "Thank you, lady." They ran back to the park and found a different spot to play. They did not want to see the grumpy lady again. They were happy to have their ball and each other.
+Ben and Lily are twins. They like to play pretend. One day, they find a big box in the garage. They think it is a boat.
+
+"Let's buy an island!" Ben says. He puts on a hat and a coat. He holds a map and a coin.
+
+"OK!" Lily says. She puts on a dress and a necklace. She holds a bag and a flower.
+
+They get in the box and pretend to sail. They make boat noises and wave to the birds. They look at the map and the coin.
+
+"Look, there is an island!" Lily says. She points to a hill in the park. It has a tree and a swing.
+
+"Wow, it is light and green!" Ben says. He likes the island. He gives the coin to Lily.
+
+"Here, you can have the island. It is yours!" he says.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are nice!" Lily says. She gives the flower to Ben.
+
+They get out of the box and run to the hill. They climb the tree and swing on the swing. They are happy. They have a new island.
+Lily liked to play with her toys. She had dolls, cars, blocks and books. But her favorite toy was her microscope. She got it from her grandpa, who was a scientist. He told her she could see tiny things with it, like bugs and plants and hairs.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to show her friend Max her microscope. She invited him to her room and took out her toy. She put a slide with a flower on it under the lens and turned on the light. "Look, Max, this is a flower, but very small," she said.
+
+Max looked through the microscope. He saw the flower, but he did not think it was fun. He thought it was boring. He liked to play with cars and balls and trains. He did not care about tiny things. He yawned and said, "Can we play something else?"
+
+Lily was sad. She liked her microscope. She thought it was amazing. She wanted Max to like it too. She asked him, "Don't you want to see more slides? I have bugs and plants and hairs. They are very cool."
+
+Max shook his head. He did not want to see more slides. He wanted to play something else. He said, "No, thank you. I think your microscope is boring. Can we play with your cars or your blocks?"
+
+Lily nodded. She did not want to make Max unhappy. She put away her microscope and took out her cars and blocks. She played with Max, but she wished he liked her microscope too. She thought maybe he would like it more when he was older. She hoped he would.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big truck with many wheels. The truck is very dirty and makes a loud sound. Lily and Ben want to see the truck up close.
+
+"Let's march to the truck!" Lily says. "March, march, march!"
+
+They march to the truck, holding hands. They see the driver in the front. He is wearing a hat and a jacket. He smiles at them and waves.
+
+"Hello, little ones!" he says. "Do you like my truck?"
+
+"Yes, we do!" Lily and Ben say. "Your truck is big and dirty and noisy!"
+
+The driver laughs. "That's right! My truck is big and dirty and noisy. I use it to carry sand and rocks and dirt. Do you want to see what's in the back?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Lily and Ben say.
+
+The driver opens the back of the truck. He shows them the sand and rocks and dirt. He lets them touch and feel them. They are rough and cold and heavy.
+
+"Wow, this is fun!" Lily says.
+
+"Can we take some home?" Ben asks.
+
+The driver shakes his head. "No, sorry. This is for a building site. I have to deliver it soon. But you can have this." He gives them each a small toy truck. They are clean and shiny and make a soft sound.
+
+"Thank you, thank you!" Lily and Ben say. They hug the driver and say goodbye.
+
+They march back to their mom, who is waiting for them on a bench. They show her their toy trucks and tell her about the big truck.
+
+"That sounds like a great adventure!" mom says. "But you are very dirty now. Let's go home and have a bath."
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They march to the car, holding their toy trucks. They are happy and tired. They had a fun day in the park.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play together in the park, in the sandbox, and on the swings. They also liked to pretend they were grown-ups and do things like cook, shop, and work.
+
+One day, Lily had an idea. She said to Ben, "Let's play marry. I will be the bride and you will be the groom. We can use this flower as a ring and this scarf as a veil."
+
+Ben thought that sounded fun. He said, "OK, let's play marry. But we need someone to be the officiant. Who can we ask?"
+
+Lily looked around and saw a friendly dog sitting on a bench. The dog had a collar with a tag that said "Rex". Lily said, "How about Rex? He can be the officiant. He is adorable and he looks smart."
+
+Ben agreed. He said, "Yes, Rex can be the officiant. He can bark when we say 'I do'. Come on, Rex, come play with us."
+
+Lily and Ben ran to Rex and gave him a hug. Rex wagged his tail and licked their faces. He was happy to have new friends. Lily and Ben put the flower on Ben's finger and the scarf on Lily's head. They stood in front of Rex and held hands.
+
+Lily said, "I, Lily, take you, Ben, to be my husband. I will share my toys with you and be nice to you and hug you every day."
+
+Ben said, "I, Ben, take you, Lily, to be my wife. I will protect you from monsters and make you laugh and play with you every day."
+
+Rex barked loudly. He was the officiant and he said, "I do". Lily and Ben kissed each other on the cheek. They were married.
+
+They were very happy. They did not know that their parents were watching them from a distance. Their parents smiled and clapped. They were proud of their children. They had a surprise for them. They had a cake and balloons and presents. They wanted to celebrate their pretend wedding.
+
+They walked to Lily and Ben and said, "Congratulations, Lily and Ben. You are so cute and sweet. We have a surprise for you. Come and see."
+
+Lily and Ben were surprised and excited. They followed their parents and saw the cake and balloons and presents. They said, "Wow, thank you, mommy and daddy. This is the best day ever."
+
+They ate the cake and played with the balloons and opened the presents. They hugged Rex and their parents. They were happy. They were best friends. They were married.
+Lily likes birds. She has a large birdcage in her room. She has two birds in the cage. One is blue and one is yellow. They are her friends.
+
+One day, Lily wants to play with her birds. She goes to her room and lifts the birdcage. It is heavy. She carries it to the living room. She puts it on the floor.
+
+"Hello, birds!" Lily says. "Do you want to play with me?"
+
+The birds chirp and flap their wings. They are happy to see Lily. Lily opens the cage door. She reaches her hand inside. She wants to pet the birds.
+
+But the birds are scared. They do not like Lily's hand. They fly out of the cage. They fly around the living room. They make a lot of noise.
+
+"Come back, birds!" Lily cries. "Don't be afraid!"
+
+Lily tries to catch the birds. She runs after them. She jumps and claps. But the birds are too fast. They fly over her head. They land on the sofa, the lamp, the bookshelf.
+
+Lily's mom hears the noise. She comes to the living room. She sees the birds and the cage. She sees Lily.
+
+"Lily, what are you doing?" Mom asks. "Why did you lift the birdcage?"
+
+"I wanted to play with the birds," Lily says. "But they flew away. I'm sorry, Mom."
+
+Mom sighs. She is not angry. She is a little amused. She helps Lily. She gets a net. She catches the birds. She puts them back in the cage. She closes the door.
+
+"Next time, Lily, don't lift the birdcage," Mom says. "The birds are happy in their home. You can play with them by talking to them or giving them treats. But don't touch them. They are not toys. They are living things."
+
+Lily nods. She understands. She says sorry to the birds. She says thank you to Mom. She hugs Mom. She hugs the birdcage. She loves her birds. She loves her mom.
+Anna and Ben were friends who liked to play at the park. They liked to go on the slide, the seesaw and the swing. One day, they saw a new swing that was bigger and higher than the others. They wanted to try it, but they were a little scared.
+
+"Let's go on the new swing!" Ben said. "It looks fun!"
+
+"I don't know, Ben," Anna said. "It looks too high. What if we fall?"
+
+"Don't be silly, Anna," Ben said. "We won't fall. We are big and brave. Come on, follow me!"
+
+Ben ran to the new swing and climbed on it. He pushed himself hard and swung high in the air. He felt happy and proud. He shouted to Anna, "Look at me, Anna! I'm flying!"
+
+Anna watched Ben and felt troubled. She wanted to join him, but she also felt afraid. She decided to try the new swing, too. She walked slowly to the swing and climbed on it. She pushed herself a little and swung low in the air. She felt nervous and unsure. She whispered to Ben, "Ben, I don't like this. Can we go back to the old swing?"
+
+But Ben didn't hear her. He was too busy swinging and laughing. He pushed himself harder and harder, until he swung too high. He lost his grip and slipped off the swing. He fell to the ground and hurt himself. He cried out loud, "Ow, ow, ow!"
+
+Anna heard Ben and jumped off the swing. She ran to him and saw that he had a cut on his knee and a bump on his head. She felt sorry for him and hugged him. She said, "Ben, are you okay? I'm sorry you got hurt."
+
+Ben stopped crying and looked at Anna. He felt ashamed and sorry, too. He said, "Anna, I'm sorry I didn't listen to you. You were right. The new swing was too high. I was silly and not brave. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Anna smiled and nodded. She said, "Of course, Ben. You are my friend. Friends forgive each other. But next time, let's be careful and not try things that are too hard for us. Okay?"
+
+Ben smiled and nodded, too. He said, "Okay, Anna. Thank you for being my friend. Let's go to the nurse and get a band-aid. Then we can play on the old swing. It's more fun and safe."
+
+Anna and Ben held hands and walked to the nurse. They learned a lesson that day. They learned that being brave is not about doing dangerous things, but about being honest and kind. They also learned that being friends is not about following each other, but about helping and listening to each other. They were happy and wise.
+Lily and Max are playing in the park. They like to slide on the big slide. It is fun and fast. They take turns to go down the slide.
+
+One day, they see a new slide in the park. It is bigger and longer than the old slide. It has a label on it. The label says: "Only for big kids. Not for little kids."
+
+Lily and Max are curious. They want to try the new slide. They think they are big enough. They ignore the label and climb up the ladder.
+
+"Are you ready, Max?" Lily asks.
+
+"Yes, I am ready, Lily," Max says.
+
+They slide down the new slide together. But the new slide is too steep and too fast. They scream and hold on to each other. They are scared and dizzy.
+
+At the bottom of the slide, they bump into a big boy. The big boy is angry. He is alert and sees the label on the slide.
+
+"Hey, you little kids! Can't you read the label? This slide is not for you! Go away!" the big boy shouts.
+
+Lily and Max are sorry and ashamed. They run away from the big boy. They go back to the old slide. They hug each other and say:
+
+"Let's never go on the new slide again. The old slide is better. It is fun and safe. And it is for us."
+Lila and Ben were playing in the park with their dolls. They liked to pretend that their dolls were princesses and princes who lived in a big castle. They made crowns and capes out of leaves and flowers and put them on their dolls.
+
+"Hello, Princess Lila," Ben said, making his doll bow to Lila's doll. "You look very pretty today."
+
+"Thank you, Prince Ben," Lila said, making her doll bow back. "You are very kind."
+
+They smiled and hugged their dolls. They were having a lot of fun.
+
+But then, Lila felt something in her tummy. She needed to go to the bathroom. She told Ben that she had to go and asked him to watch her doll.
+
+"Okay, Lila," Ben said. "I will take good care of your doll. Hurry back."
+
+Lila ran to the bathroom. It was not far from the park. She opened the door and saw something unusual. There was a big dog in the bathroom. It was black and white and had a red collar. It looked at Lila and wagged its tail.
+
+"Hello, doggy," Lila said. "What are you doing here? This is not your home. This is the bathroom."
+
+The dog barked and licked Lila's face. It was friendly, but Lila was surprised. She did not know whose dog it was or how it got in the bathroom.
+
+She wanted to pet the dog, but she also wanted to go back to Ben and her doll. She decided to do both. She quickly used the bathroom and then gave the dog a hug.
+
+"Bye, doggy," Lila said. "You are very cute, but you should go back to your owner. Maybe they are looking for you."
+
+She opened the door and ran back to the park. She hoped that Ben and her doll were still there. She wondered if Ben would believe her story about the unusual dog in the bathroom.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the yard. They found a big copper pot under a tree. It was shiny and heavy.
+
+"Let's play with it!" Tom said. He lifted the pot and ran to the hose. He turned on the water and poured it into the pot.
+
+Lily followed him and watched. She saw something move in the pot. It was a frog. It jumped out of the water and landed on Tom's head.
+
+Tom screamed and dropped the pot. He was scared of the frog. He ran away from it.
+
+Lily laughed and picked up the frog. She was not scared of it. She liked it. She said to the frog, "Hello, little frog. Do you want to be my friend?"
+Lily loved to watch the birds in the park. She liked their colors, their songs, and their flying. One day, she saw a man selling birdcages. He had many birds in them, and they looked sad and quiet.
+
+"Can I have a bird, please?" Lily asked her mom.
+
+"No, dear, birds are not toys. They belong in the sky, not in cages," her mom said.
+
+"But they are so pretty and cute. I will take good care of them," Lily said.
+
+The man heard Lily and came over. He smiled and said, "I have a special offer for you, little girl. You can have any bird you want for only five dollars. They are very friendly and smart. They will make you happy."
+
+Lily felt a strong urge to buy a bird. She looked at her mom, who shook her head. She looked at the man, who nodded. She looked at the birds, who stared at her with big eyes.
+
+She reached for her pocket, where she had her allowance money. She had saved it for a long time, and she had ten dollars. She could buy two birds, and still have some left.
+
+But then, she remembered what her mom said. She remembered how the birds sang and flew in the park. She remembered how they looked in the cages. She felt sorry for them.
+
+She put her money back in her pocket. She said to the man, "No, thank you. I don't want a bird. I want them to be free."
+
+The man frowned and said, "But they are yours for a bargain. Don't you like them?"
+
+"I like them, but I don't want to hurt them. They are not happy in cages. They are happy in the sky," Lily said.
+
+She took her mom's hand and walked away. The man shrugged and looked for another customer.
+
+Lily's mom hugged her and said, "I'm very proud of you, Lily. You made a generous and kind choice. You showed respect and love for the birds. You are a good girl."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. And I love the birds, too."
+
+They went to the park and watched the birds fly and sing. Lily felt happy and free, too.
+Sara was sad. Her knee was hurt. She fell down when she ran in the park. Mommy put a band-aid on her knee, but it still hurt.
+
+"Mommy, when will my knee heal?" Sara asked.
+
+"Soon, my love. You need to rest and drink water. And eat healthy food, like this radish." Mommy gave Sara a white radish from the fridge.
+
+Sara looked at the radish. She did not like radishes. They were spicy and bitter. She made a face.
+
+"Mommy, I don't want to eat the radish. Can I have a cookie instead?" Sara said.
+
+"No, Sara. Cookies are not good for you when you are hurt. Radishes are good for you. They have vitamins and minerals that help you heal. They also make your teeth strong and white. Look, I will eat one too." Mommy took a bite of the radish and smiled.
+
+Sara saw Mommy's white teeth. She wanted to have white teeth too. She thought maybe the radish was not so bad. She took a small bite of the radish and chewed. It was spicy and bitter, but also crunchy and sweet.
+
+"Mommy, the radish is not so bad. It is kind of yummy. Can I have another one?" Sara said.
+
+"Of course, Sara. I'm glad you like the radish. You are a brave and smart girl. Your knee will heal soon, and you will be able to run and play again." Mommy hugged Sara and gave her another radish.
+
+Sara felt happy. She ate the radish and drank water. She felt her knee hurt less. She thanked Mommy and gave her a kiss. She hoped her knee would heal fast, and her teeth would be white like Mommy's.
+Lila and Ben are friends. They like to play in the garden. They have a big box of toys. They have dolls, cars, balls, and books. They also have a carrot.
+
+One day, they decide to play with the carrot. They pretend it is a magic wand. They wave it in the air and say funny words. They make the dolls dance, the cars zoom, the balls bounce, and the books talk.
+
+"Look, Lila, the carrot is flexible!" Ben says. He bends the carrot and makes it straight again. "It can do anything!"
+
+Lila smiles. She takes the carrot from Ben. She waves it at him and says, "Abracadabra, Ben, you are a bunny!"
+
+Ben laughs. He hops around the garden. He wiggles his nose and ears. He nibbles on some grass. He says, "I am a bunny, Lila, and I love carrots!"
+
+Lila giggles. She hops after him. She says, "I am a bunny, too, Ben, and I love you!"
+
+They hug each other. They share the carrot. They are happy. They are friends. They have fun.
+Ben likes to go to the farm with his mom. He likes to see the animals and feed them. He likes the cows, the pigs, the sheep and the chickens. But his favorite animal is the horse. The horse is big and brown and friendly.
+
+One day, Ben and his mom go to the farm early in the morning. The sun is just rising in the sky. It is a beautiful day. Ben runs to the barn to see the horse. He sees the horse sleeping in his stall. He calls his name.
+
+"Hello, Sam! Wake up, Sam! It's time to play!"
+
+The horse hears Ben's voice and opens his eyes. He sees Ben smiling at him. He likes Ben. He is his friend. He gets up from his straw bed and walks to the door. He sticks his head out and nuzzles Ben's hair.
+
+"Good morning, Ben! I'm happy to see you!"
+
+Ben hugs the horse's neck and gives him a carrot. He says:
+
+"Good morning, Sam! I'm happy to see you too! Do you want to go for a ride?"
+
+The horse nods his head and whinnies. He says:
+
+"Yes, Ben! I love to go for a ride with you! Let's go!"
+
+Ben and his mom put a saddle and a bridle on the horse. Ben climbs on the horse's back. His mom holds the reins and walks with them. They go to the field and the meadow and the hill. They see the other animals and the flowers and the trees. They have a lot of fun.
+
+Ben and Sam are very happy. They are the best friends. They love to rise with the sun and play on the farm.
+Tim and Kim liked to play with paper and scissors. They cut out shapes and colors and made things. One day, they wanted to make a big bird. They cut out a yellow body, a red beak, two blue wings and two black eyes. They glued them together and made a bird.
+
+They wanted to see their bird fly. They ran outside and threw their bird in the air. But their bird did not fly. It fell to the ground. Tim and Kim were sad. They wanted their bird to soar like a real bird.
+
+They saw a big tree near their house. They had an idea. They climbed the tree with their bird. They went to the top of the tree and held their bird. They counted to three and let go of their bird. Their bird soared in the air. It looked like a real bird. Tim and Kim were happy. They clapped and cheered.
+
+But their bird did not stay in the air for long. It flew too far and landed on a roof. Tim and Kim could not reach their bird. They were sad again. They wanted their bird back.
+
+They saw a lazy cat on the roof. The cat saw their bird. The cat liked to play with paper and scissors too. The cat ran to their bird and tore it apart. Tim and Kim were very sad. They cried and cried.
+
+They went back to their house and hugged their mom. Their mom was kind. She gave them more paper and scissors and said they could make another bird. Tim and Kim smiled. They said thank you and went to make another bird. They hoped their bird would soar again.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play pretend. One day, they pretended to have a marriage. Lily wore a white dress and Tom wore a black suit. They found a ring and a flower in the garden.
+
+"Tom, you are my husband now. You have to bow to me and give me the ring and the flower," Lily said.
+
+"OK, Lily, you are my wife now. I bow to you and give you the ring and the flower," Tom said. He did what Lily said.
+
+They smiled and hugged. They were happy.
+
+Then, they saw a big cake on the table. It looked yummy. It had pink frosting and sprinkles.
+
+"Lily, let's eat the cake. It is our marriage cake," Tom said.
+
+"OK, Tom, let's eat the cake. It is our marriage cake," Lily said.
+
+They ran to the table and took big bites of the cake. It was yummy. They ate and ate.
+
+But the cake was not for them. It was for Mommy and Daddy. It was their anniversary cake. Mommy and Daddy came home and saw the cake. They were angry.
+
+"Lily, Tom, what did you do? You ate our cake. That was very naughty. You are in big trouble," Mommy said.
+
+"We are sorry, Mommy. We did not know. We were playing marriage," Lily said.
+
+"That is no excuse. You should not touch things that are not yours. You have to go to your rooms and think about what you did. No more playing for today," Daddy said.
+
+Lily and Tom cried. They were sad. They had to go to their rooms. They did not like their marriage anymore. It was a bad ending.
+Lila and Ben are playing hide and seek in the kitchen. Lila is the seeker and Ben is the hider. Ben runs to the cabinet and opens the door. He sees a big bag of cookies on the shelf. He smiles and grabs a cookie. He thinks Lila will not find him here.
+
+But Lila is a smart seeker. She hears the cabinet door creak and the cookie bag rustle. She tiptoes to the cabinet and peeks inside. She sees Ben with a cookie in his mouth. She shouts, "I catch you, Ben! You are hiding in the cabinet!"
+
+Ben is surprised and drops the cookie. He says, "Oh no, Lila! You are too good at this game! How did you find me?"
+
+Lila says, "I heard you, Ben. You made a lot of noise. And you took a cookie. That is not fair. You have to share."
+
+Ben feels sorry and says, "I'm sorry, Lila. You are right. I should share. Here, you can have the other half of my cookie."
+
+Lila smiles and says, "Thank you, Ben. You are a loyal friend. I like playing with you."
+
+They hug and share the cookie. Then they decide to play another game. They close the cabinet door and leave the kitchen. They are happy and have fun.
+Lila and Tom love to go to the beach with their mom and dad. They like to play in the sand, splash in the water, and look for shells and rocks. Sometimes they see big fish in the sea, like dolphins and sharks. But their favorite thing is to see whales.
+
+One day, they hear a loud sound from the water. They run to the shore and see a huge whale jumping out of the sea. It has a long tail and a big mouth. It makes a funny noise, like a whistle. Lila and Tom clap their hands and laugh.
+
+"Wow, look at the whale!" Lila says.
+
+"It's so big and strong!" Tom says.
+
+The whale jumps again and again. It seems to be happy and playful. It splashes water on Lila and Tom. They get wet and giggle.
+
+"Hello, whale!" Lila shouts.
+
+"Can you hear us?" Tom asks.
+
+The whale hears them and makes another noise. It sounds like a hello. Lila and Tom think the whale is talking to them. They feel happy and excited.
+
+They gather some shells and rocks from the sand. They want to give them to the whale as a gift. They throw them into the water, one by one. The whale sees them and swims closer. It opens its mouth and catches some of the shells and rocks. It spits them out and makes another noise. It sounds like a thank you.
+
+Lila and Tom smile and wave at the whale. The whale smiles and waves back with its tail. It jumps one more time and then swims away. Lila and Tom watch it until it disappears.
+
+They hug each other and run to their mom and dad. They tell them about the whale and how they made a new friend. Their mom and dad are proud and happy. They all have a wonderful day at the beach.
+Tom and Anna are twins. They are three years old. They like to play with toys and books. But sometimes they do not behave. They make noise and mess. Mom and Dad are not happy.
+
+One day, Mom and Dad have to go to the doctor. They have a test. They tell Tom and Anna to stay with Grandma. Grandma is nice. She gives them cookies and milk. She reads them stories. She says, "Be good, Tom and Anna. Mom and Dad will be back soon."
+
+Tom and Anna nod. They want to be good. But after a while, they get bored. They see a big box in the corner. They wonder what is inside. They go to the box and open it. They find many things. They find a lamp, a hat, a scarf, a ball, and a whistle. They think they are fun. They put on the hat and the scarf. They turn on the lamp. They throw the ball. They blow the whistle. They laugh and shout.
+
+Grandma hears the noise. She comes to the room. She sees the mess. She sees the light. She sees Tom and Anna. She is not happy. She says, "Tom and Anna, what are you doing? You are not behaving. You are making a lot of noise and mess. You are wasting the lamp. You are not listening to me. You are being naughty."
+
+Tom and Anna stop. They see Grandma's face. They feel bad. They say, "Sorry, Grandma. We were just playing. We did not mean to be naughty. We will clean up. We will be quiet. We will behave."
+
+Grandma sighs. She says, "Thank you, Tom and Anna. I know you are just curious. But you have to be careful. You have to respect other people's things. You have to follow the rules. You have to be good. Mom and Dad will be proud of you."
+
+Tom and Anna nod. They hug Grandma. They say, "We love you, Grandma. We will be good. We will behave." They help Grandma clean up. They sit on the couch. They wait for Mom and Dad. They hope they pass the test. They hope they are happy. They hope they are light.

+
+"Go away, dog!" Sue yells.
+
+But the dog does not listen. The dog runs away with the ball. Tom and Sue chase the dog. They want their ball back.
+
+They run and run. They cross the street. They do not look. They do not see the car.
+
+The car sees them. The car honks. The car brakes. But it is too late.
+
+The car hits Tom and Sue. They fall to the ground. They do not move. They do not breathe.
+
+The driver gets out of the car. He is scared. He is sorry. He calls for help.
+
+But no one can help Tom and Sue. They are gone. They will not play catch again.
+
+The dog does not realize what happened. The dog is happy. The dog has the ball. The dog keeps running. The dog does not look back.
+Lily liked to draw animals. She had many crayons and papers. She drew cats, dogs, birds, and fish. She was happy with her drawings.
+
+But Tom, her big brother, was bossy. He always told her what to do. He looked at her drawings and said, "These are bad. You need to improve. Let me show you how to draw animals."
+
+He took her crayons and papers and drew his own animals. He drew lions, tigers, elephants, and crocodiles. He said, "See? These are good. These are real animals. You should draw like me."
+
+Lily was sad. She did not like his animals. They were scary and mean. She liked her animals. They were cute and friendly. She said, "No, I don't want to draw like you. I want to draw like me. Give me back my crayons and papers."
+
+Tom was angry. He said, "No, you are wrong. You need to listen to me. I am your big brother. I know better. You are a baby. You need to improve."
+
+They started to fight. They pulled and pushed each other. They shouted and cried. Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong.
+
+She saw their drawings and their mess. She said, "Stop it, both of you. What are you doing? Why are you fighting?"
+
+Lily and Tom told her their stories. She listened and said, "Lily, your drawings are beautiful. You have a lot of imagination and creativity. You can draw any animals you want. Tom, your drawings are also good. You have a lot of skill and detail. You can draw real animals very well. But you should not be bossy to your sister. You should respect her choices and feelings. You should help her, not hurt her. You should be kind, not mean. You can both improve by learning from each other and sharing your crayons and papers. Can you do that?"
+
+Lily and Tom felt sorry. They said, "Yes, mom. We can do that. We are sorry. We love each other. We love our drawings. We love our animals."
+
+They hugged and said sorry to each other. They cleaned up their mess. They looked at each other's drawings and said nice things. They learned to appreciate their differences and similarities. They improved by being kind and respectful. They were happy.
+Anna and Ben like to watch cartoons on TV. They laugh at the funny animals and the silly jokes. Sometimes they order pizza and eat it on the couch. They think pizza is yummy and cheesy.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben are watching a cartoon about a careless cat and a smart mouse. The cat tries to catch the mouse, but he always fails. He falls into traps, hits his head, and gets wet. The mouse is clever and escapes. Anna and Ben giggle and cheer for the mouse.
+
+They are so busy watching the cartoon that they do not hear the doorbell. It is the pizza man. He knocks and knocks, but no one answers. He gets angry and leaves. He takes the pizza with him.
+
+Anna and Ben do not notice that the pizza is gone. They keep watching the cartoon until it is over. Then they are hungry and want to eat pizza. They look for the pizza box, but they cannot find it. They wonder where it is.
+
+They ask their mom, who is in the kitchen. She tells them that the pizza man came, but they did not open the door. She says they were careless and missed their pizza. She says they have to eat something else for dinner.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad and sorry. They wish they had paid attention to the doorbell. They promise to be more careful next time. They hope they can order pizza again soon. They still like cartoons, but they also like pizza.
+Lily and Ben were jolly friends. They liked to play in the park and look at the birds and flowers. One day, they saw dark clouds in the sky. They heard a loud boom. It was going to rain.
+
+"Let's go home, Lily," Ben said. "We don't want to get wet."
+
+"OK, Ben," Lily said. "But can we stop at the shop first? I want to buy some soup."
+
+"Soup? Why do you want soup?" Ben asked.
+
+"Because soup is warm and yummy. And it makes me happy when it rains," Lily said.
+
+They ran to the shop and bought some soup. They had tomato soup and chicken soup. They also bought some bread and cheese. They put everything in a big bag and hurried home.
+
+At home, they shared their soup and bread and cheese. They sat by the window and watched the rain. They saw raindrops falling and splashing. They saw puddles and umbrellas. They saw a rainbow.
+
+"Look, Ben, a rainbow!" Lily said. "It's so pretty. It has many colors."
+
+"Yes, Lily, it is. It's like a smile in the sky," Ben said.
+
+They smiled at each other and ate their soup. They were jolly friends. They liked the rain and the soup. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily liked to play on the beach. They liked to dig in the sand and look for shells. One day, they found a big shell that was closed. It was an oyster.
+
+"Maybe there is a pearl inside," Ben said. He wanted to open the oyster and see. He tried to pry it open with a stick, but it was too hard. He tried to smash it with a rock, but it was too strong. He tried to throw it in the air, but it was too heavy.
+
+Lily watched Ben and shook her head. She thought he was careless. He could hurt himself or the oyster. She said, "Ben, stop. You are not being nice to the oyster. It is alive. It has a home. It does not want to be opened."
+
+Ben did not listen to Lily. He was stubborn. He wanted to see the pearl. He said, "Lily, you are silly. The oyster does not care. It does not feel. It is just a shell. I want to see the pearl."
+
+He tried one more time to open the oyster. He put it on a big log and hit it with a bigger rock. But he hit it too hard. The oyster cracked and flew out of his hand. It landed in the water and sank. Ben lost the oyster.
+
+He looked at the water and felt sad. He did not see the pearl. He did not see the oyster. He said, "Oh no. I was careless. I was mean. I am sorry, oyster."
+
+Lily came to Ben and hugged him. She said, "It's okay, Ben. You made a mistake. You learned a lesson. Next time, be gentle and kind. Maybe the oyster will forgive you. Maybe it will find a new home. Maybe it will be happy."
+
+Ben nodded and hugged Lily back. He said, "Thank you, Lily. You are smart and good. You are my friend. I love you."
+
+They smiled and held hands. They walked on the beach and looked for more shells. But they did not touch the oysters. They left them alone. They seemed happy.
+Ben and Mia love to play soccer in the park. They have a small ball and two goals made of sticks. They take turns to kick the ball and try to score. They count their scores out loud.
+
+"Ben, it is your turn. Kick the ball!" Mia says.
+
+Ben runs and kicks the ball hard. But he misses the goal. The ball goes over the fence and into the street.
+
+"Oh no! Our ball is gone!" Ben says.
+
+They run to the fence and look for the ball. But they cannot see it. The street is busy with cars and bikes. They are sad and scared.
+
+"Ben, what can we do?" Mia asks.
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He sees a man walking on the sidewalk. He has a big hat and a friendly smile.
+
+"Excuse me, sir. Can you help us?" Ben requests.
+
+The man stops and looks at them. He sees their empty goal and their sad faces.
+
+"What is the matter, kids?" he asks.
+
+"We lost our ball. It went over the fence and into the street. Can you get it for us, please?" Ben says.
+
+The man nods and smiles. He walks to the street and looks for the ball. He finds it under a car. He picks it up and brings it back to them.
+
+"Here you go, kids. Your ball is safe and sound. Be careful next time, okay?" he says.
+
+"Thank you, sir. You are very kind. We will be careful, we promise." Ben and Mia say.
+
+They take their ball and hug the man. They are happy and grateful. They go back to their game and continue to play soccer. They have fun and forget their trouble. They score many goals and laugh a lot.
+Sara and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They liked to go on the swing and go high in the air. They felt happy and free.
+
+One day, Sara saw a new swing in the park. It was big and shiny and had a seat for two. Sara wanted to try it, but Ben was scared. He said it looked too fast and too high.
+
+"Please, Ben, come with me," Sara said. "It will be fun. I will hold your hand and we will be safe."
+
+Ben looked at Sara. He saw her big eyes and her smile. He wanted to make her happy, but he also felt afraid. He did not know what to do.
+
+Sara saw Ben's face. She knew he was afraid. She felt sorry for him. She did not want to force him. She was honest with him.
+
+"Ben, it's okay if you don't want to go on the new swing. I understand. You can stay on the old swing and I will join you soon. I just want to try it once, okay?"
+
+Ben nodded. He was glad that Sara was honest with him. He trusted her. He watched her go on the new swing with another child. He saw her laugh and wave at him. He felt proud of her.
+
+Sara came back to Ben after one ride. She hugged him and thanked him. She told him it was fun, but she liked the old swing better. She said it was more cozy and more fun with him.
+
+They went on the old swing together and gazed at the sky. They felt happy and free. They learned that being honest and kind is the best way to be friends.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big dollhouse that their grandma gave them. The dollhouse had many rooms, furniture, and dolls. Lily and Tom pretended that the dolls were a family who lived in a luxury house.

+
+Sam nodded and smiled. He looked at the dolls and picked one. He said, "This is the dad. He is very smart and works hard. He knows many things."
+
+Lily picked another doll and said, "This is the mom. She is very kind and cooks yummy food. She knows how to make everyone happy."
+
+Tom picked the last doll and said, "This is the baby. He is very cute and likes to laugh. He knows how to say mama and dada."
+
+The three friends played happily with the dollhouse. They made up stories and had fun. They did not know that their grandma was watching them from the window. She smiled and felt proud of her grandchildren. She thought, "They are very lucky to have each other and to enjoy such a simple pleasure. They do not need anything else to be happy."
+Tommy loved his train. It was red and shiny and made a loud noise when he pushed it. He played with it every day and took it everywhere. He wanted to show it to his friend Lily, who lived next door.
+
+One day, he decided to surprise Lily with his train. He found some paper and a ribbon and tried to wrap his train like a gift. It was hard, but he did his best. He put the wrapped train in his backpack and ran to Lily's house.
+
+He knocked on the door and Lily's mom opened it. She smiled and said, "Hello, Tommy. What do you have there?"
+
+Tommy said, "It's a surprise for Lily. Can I see her?"
+
+Lily's mom said, "Sure, she's in the backyard with her new puppy. Come on in."
+
+Tommy followed her to the backyard. He saw Lily playing with a small, hairy dog. It was brown and white and had floppy ears. It looked very cute and happy.
+
+Tommy said, "Hi, Lily. I have something for you."
+
+Lily looked up and saw Tommy. She said, "Hi, Tommy. What is it?"
+
+Tommy took out his wrapped train and gave it to Lily. He said, "It's my train. I wrapped it for you. I want you to have it."
+
+Lily's eyes widened. She said, "Wow, thank you, Tommy. That's very nice of you. Can I open it?"
+
+Tommy nodded. He watched as Lily tore the paper and saw his train. She gasped and said, "It's beautiful. I love it. Thank you, thank you, thank you."
+
+She hugged Tommy and then hugged the train. She said, "Can we play with it together?"
+
+Tommy smiled and said, "Yes, we can. It's more fun to share."

+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. But Lily saw a big watch on a bench. It was shiny and had many colors. She wanted to look at it.
+
+"Ben, come here! Look at this watch!" she said.
+
+Ben ran to her. He saw the watch too. He wanted to touch it.
+
+"Wow, it's so pretty! Can we play with it?" he asked.
+
+Lily nodded. She picked up the watch and put it on her wrist. It was too big for her, but she liked how it felt. She pressed a button and the watch made a beep.
+
+"Look, it makes noise!" she said.
+
+Ben smiled. He pressed another button and the watch made a light. He pressed more buttons and the watch made more noises and lights.
+
+"This is fun!" he said.
+
+They played with the watch for a long time. They did not see the man who owned the watch. He was looking for it. He was angry and sad. He had lost his watch. It was a special watch. His dad had given it to him.
+
+He walked around the park. He asked people if they had seen his watch. No one had. He sighed. He felt hurt. He loved his watch. He missed his dad.
+
+He saw Lily and Ben. They were still playing with his watch. They did not see him. He walked to them. He shouted.
+
+"Hey, that's my watch! Give it back to me!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They looked at the man. He was big and angry. They did not know him.
+
+"Sorry, mister. We did not know it was yours. We just wanted to play with it. It's a nice watch," Lily said.
+
+She took off the watch and gave it to the man. Ben did the same. They hoped the man would not be mad at them.
+
+The man took his watch. He looked at it. It was still working. It was not broken. He felt relieved. He looked at Lily and Ben. They looked sorry and sad. He felt sorry too. He remembered he was a kid once. He liked to play too.
+
+He smiled. He said.
+
+"Thank you for giving me back my watch. I'm sorry I shouted at you. It's a very special watch to me. My dad gave it to me. He is not here anymore. I miss him a lot."
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry for the man. They missed their dads too. They were at work. They said.
+
+"We're sorry for taking your watch. We did not mean to make you sad. We miss our dads too. They are at work. They give us hugs and kisses when they come home."
+
+The man nodded. He said.
+
+"I understand. I used to get hugs and kisses from my dad too. He was very kind and funny. He taught me many things. He gave me this watch when I was your age. He said it was a magic watch. It could tell me the time, the date, the weather, and even play games. He said it was a gift of love. He said I should always take good care of it. And I did. Until today. I was careless. I left it on the bench. I'm glad you found it. And I'm glad you gave it back to me. You are very good kids."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They felt happy. They liked the man. He was kind and funny too. He said.
+
+"Do you want to see how the watch works? I can show you. It has many features. It can even play music. Do you like music?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They liked music. They said.
+
+"Yes, please. Show us the watch. We like music. We like to sing and dance."
+
+The man smiled. He said.
+
+"Okay, then. Let's see. How about this song? It's one of my favorites. It's called 'You Are My Sunshine'. Do you know it?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They knew the song. They liked it too. They said.
+
+"Yes, we know it. We like it too. It's a happy song. Our moms sing it to us sometimes."
+
+The man pressed a button. The watch played the song. It was a happy song. The man, Lily and Ben sang along. They sang loud and clear. They sang with joy and love. They felt like a family. They did not feel hurt anymore. They felt happy.
+Ben was an adventurous boy who liked to explore new things. One day, he saw a big piano in the living room. He wanted to play with it, but it was very dusty and dirty. He decided to clean it with a cloth and some water.
+
+He climbed on a chair and reached for the piano keys. He rubbed them with the cloth, but he also pressed them and made loud noises. He liked the sounds, but his mom did not.
+
+"Ben, what are you doing?" his mom asked, coming into the room. "You are making a mess and a noise. The piano is not a toy. It is very old and special. You have to be careful with it."
+
+"But mom, I want to play with the piano. It is fun and pretty. I was cleaning it for you," Ben said, pouting.
+
+"I know you were trying to help, but you are not cleaning it right. You are using too much water and you are scratching the wood. You could damage the piano. You have to ask me before you touch it. Now, please get down from the chair and help me dry it," his mom said, gently.
+
+Ben felt sorry for making his mom upset. He got down from the chair and took a towel. He helped his mom wipe the piano and make it shiny again. He said he was sorry and gave her a hug.
+
+"It's okay, Ben. I love you and I appreciate your curiosity. But you have to be more careful and respectful with other people's things. The piano belongs to your grandma. She played it when she was young and she gave it to me. It is very precious to me. Maybe one day, I can teach you how to play it properly. Would you like that?" his mom asked, smiling.
+
+Ben nodded and smiled back. He liked the idea of learning how to play the piano with his mom. He thought it would be more fun and less messy than cleaning it. He thanked his mom and gave her another hug. He was still an adventurous boy, but he learned to be more respectful too.
+Lila and Sam were at the beach with their mom and dad. They liked to play in the sand and splash in the water. They saw many things in the water, like fish, shells and seaweed.

+
+"Look, mom, a balloon!" Lila said, pointing at it.
+
+"No, Lila, that's not a balloon. That's a jellyfish. Jellyfish can hurt you if you touch them. They can sting you with their strings. You have to stay away from them," mom said.
+
+"Why do they sting?" Sam asked.
+
+"They sting to protect themselves from other animals. They don't know that you are not an animal. They think you are a threat. So they sting to prevent you from hurting them," mom explained.
+
+"Oh, I see. I don't want to hurt them or get hurt by them. How can we prevent them from stinging us?" Sam asked.
+
+"Well, we can look for them in the water and avoid them. We can also wear shoes or socks in the water to protect our feet. And we can listen to the lifeguard. He will tell us if there are many jellyfish in the water and if we should get out," mom said.
+
+"OK, mom. We will be careful and listen to the lifeguard. We don't want to get stung by jellyfish," Lila and Sam said.
+
+They were successful in preventing jellyfish stings. They had fun at the beach and learned something new. They also saw a dolphin, a starfish and a crab. They were happy and curious. They loved the beach.

+
+Lily did not listen to Ben. She was curious. She swam closer to the stick. She reached out her foot and stirred it. The stick moved. It was a real snake. It hissed and snapped at Lily. Lily screamed and swam away. Ben swam to her and helped her get out of the lake.
+
+Lily was scared and hurt. She had a bite mark on her foot. It was red and sore. Ben got a band-aid and put it on her foot. He said, "Lily, I'm sorry you got hurt. But you should have listened to me. I told you not to stir the snake. You should be careful and obey."
+
+Lily nodded and said, "You're right, Ben. I'm sorry I didn't listen to you. I learned my lesson. I will be careful and obey next time. Thank you for helping me."

+
+One day, Lily and Stitch went to the park with her mom and dad. They played on the swings, the slide, and the sandbox. Lily had so much fun, but she also got very hungry. She saw a big red apple on a picnic table and ran to get it. She did not see the sign that said "Do not touch".
+
+Lily took a big bite of the apple, but it was not sweet and juicy. It was hard and bitter. Lily spit it out and made a face. She looked at the apple and saw that it was not a real apple, but a plastic one. She felt silly and sad. She had chewed on a fake apple and hurt her teeth.
+
+She ran back to her mom and dad, who were looking for her. She showed them the apple and told them what happened. They hugged her and told her it was okay. They said they had a real apple for her in their bag. They also checked her teeth and said they were fine.
+
+Lily was happy again. She ate the real apple and felt much better. She also gave Stitch a big hug and thanked him for being her friend. She said he was very useful, because he always made her feel safe and cozy. Stitch smiled and nodded. He was glad to be Lily's toy bear.

+
+But when the sun comes up, Tom wakes. He wakes fast and bright. He opens his eyes and stretches. He jumps out of his bed and runs to the window. He sees Spot and his friends. They wag their tails and wave their hands. They call him to come and play.

+Sara was happy to see her uncle Tom. He was friendly and funny. He always brought her a toy or a book when he visited. Sara ran to hug him and he lifted her up in the air.
+
+"Hello, Sara! How are you today?" he asked.
+
+"I am good, uncle Tom. I missed you. What did you bring me?" she said.
+
+He smiled and reached into his pocket. He pulled out a small box and shook it. It made a rattling sound. Sara was curious and excited.
+
+"What is it, uncle Tom? Can I open it?" she asked.
+
+"Of course you can, Sara. It is a surprise for you. But you have to guess what it is first. What do you think it is?" he said.
+
+Sara thought hard. She listened to the sound again. She looked at the box. It was red and shiny. She had an idea.
+
+"Is it a bell, uncle Tom? A bell that rings?" she guessed.
+
+He laughed and shook his head. He opened the box and showed her. Inside was a necklace with a small heart pendant. It sparkled in the light.

+One day, Ben and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and fill them with stones, leaves and bugs. They had a lot of fun making their own little worlds.
+
+But then, Ben saw something shiny in Lily's hole. He was very nosy and wanted to see what it was. He reached out his hand and grabbed it. It was a necklace that Lily had found in her mom's drawer. It was very pretty and sparkly.
+
+"Hey, that's mine!" Lily shouted. "Give it back!"
+
+"No, it's mine now!" Ben said. "I found it in your hole!"
+
+They started to pull and tug on the necklace. They were both very angry and did not want to share. They did not hear their mom calling them for lunch.
+
+Suddenly, the necklace broke. The beads flew everywhere. Ben and Lily gasped. They had ruined the necklace. They felt very bad and scared.
+
+They looked at each other with sad eyes. They did not want to fight anymore. They wanted to be friends again.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Ben said. "I should not have taken your necklace. It was very mean of me."
+
+"I'm sorry, too, Ben," Lily said. "I should not have yelled at you. It was very rude of me."
+
+They hugged each other and said, "I forgive you."
+
+They picked up the beads and ran to their mom. They told her what had happened and asked her to fix the necklace. Their mom was not happy, but she was glad that they had said sorry and forgiven each other. She hugged them and said, "I love you, my nosy little diggers."

+
+Tom looks at the pill. It is small and white. He does not like it. He says, "No, Mom. I don't want the pill. It is yucky. It will make me gag."
+
+Mom says, "I know, Tom. But it is good for you. If you take the pill, you will get well soon. And then you can play and eat and have fun. How about this? If you take the pill, I will clap for you and give you a hug. And you can be proud of yourself for being brave."
+
+Tom thinks for a moment. He wants to get well. He wants to play and eat and have fun. He wants Mom to clap for him and give him a hug. He wants to be proud of himself for being brave. He says, "Okay, Mom. I will try the pill. But you have to help me."
+
+Mom says, "Of course, Tom. I will help you. Here, take the pill and put it in your mouth. Then drink some water and swallow it. You can do it."

+Lily and Tom were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. They were very happy.
+
+But then, a big dog came running. He saw the snowman and wanted to play too. He jumped on the snowman and knocked him down. He bit the carrot nose and the rocks. He tore the hat and the scarf. Lily and Tom were very sad.
+
+"Bad dog! Go away!" Lily shouted. She threw a snowball at the dog. But the dog liked the snowball. He caught it in his mouth and wagged his tail. He wanted more snowballs.
+
+Tom had an idea. He took off his mitten and lay it on the ground. He made a snowball and put it inside the mitten. He threw the mitten to the dog. The dog ran after the mitten. He grabbed it and ran away.
+
+"Good idea, Tom!" Lily said. "You are very smart. Your mitten was very useful."
+

+
+But then, he felt a pain in his mouth. He spat out the pie and saw something shiny. It was a metal ring. He looked at the pie and saw more rings and earrings and necklaces. The pie was not a real pie. It was a fake pie with jewels inside.
+
+Tom was scared. He realized that he had stolen a pie that was hiding something very valuable. He wondered who owned the pie and why they hid the jewels. He thought they might be bad people who would come after him.
+
+He wanted to go back to Sue and say sorry. He wanted to return the pie and the jewels. But he did not know how. He was lost and alone. He was in big trouble. He wished he had listened to Sue. He wished he had not taken the pie. He felt very bad and cried.

+One of the older kids finally said yes and helped Timmy join the game. Timmy was so happy and had a lot of fun playing with the older youth. He even made some new friends! Timmy learned that sometimes it's important to resist and keep trying, even if it's not easy at first.
+Once upon a time, there was a nice little bear named Benny. Benny loved to play in the forest with his friends. One day, Benny saw a big log and asked his friend, "Can we perform on that log?" His friend said yes and they started to jump and dance on the log. 
+
+Suddenly, Benny's foot got stuck in the log! He couldn't move and he started to cry. His friend tried to help but he couldn't get Benny's foot out. 
+
+Just then, a wise old owl flew by and saw Benny in trouble. The owl said, "Don't worry little bear, I will perform some magic to help you." The owl closed his eyes and said some magic words. 
+
+Suddenly, the log split in two and Benny's foot was free! Benny was so happy and said, "Thank you, Mr. Owl! You are so nice!" From that day on, Benny and his friends always played on the log, but they made sure to be careful so they wouldn't get stuck again.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to play with her toys and sing songs. One day, Lily's mommy asked her to take a nap because she was very tired. But Lily didn't want to nap, she wanted to play more.
+
+Lily's mommy tried to sing a lullaby to help her nap, but Lily didn't like the sound of her voice. She wanted to hear a bright and cheerful song instead. So, Lily started to sing her favorite song about a little bird.
+
+But as Lily sang, she started to feel sleepy. Her eyes got heavy and she fell asleep while singing. When she woke up, she felt refreshed and happy. She realized that napping was important so she could have more energy to play and sing later. From that day on, Lily took a nap every day and felt much better.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She had a big, wide smile and loved to play outside. One day, Lily's mommy took her to the store to buy a new knife for cooking. They spent a long time looking at all the knives and finally found the perfect one. 
+
+Later that day, Lily went outside to play with her friends. They decided to have a picnic and eat sandwiches. But they realized they didn't have a knife to cut the bread. Lily remembered the new knife her mommy bought and ran inside to get it. 
+
+When Lily brought the knife outside, her friends were so happy. They cut the bread and had a yummy picnic. Lily felt proud that she could help her friends with the new knife. From that day on, Lily always made sure to spend time outside with her friends and help them whenever she could.
+One day, a little girl named Lily went to the library. She found a big book called a novel and wanted to read it. She sat down to read but then realized her hands were dirty. "I need to wash my hands before I read," she said to herself.
+
+Lily went to the bathroom to wash her hands, but there was a long line. She started to feel anxious because she really wanted to read the novel. Suddenly, a boy named Jack came up to her and asked, "What's wrong?"
+
+"I want to read this book, but I need to wash my hands first," Lily replied.
+
+Jack had an idea. "I'll hold your spot in line while you go wash your hands. Then you can come back and read the novel," he said.
+
+Lily was so happy and grateful. She quickly washed her hands and ran back to the novel. She read it for hours and loved every page. From that day on, Lily and Jack were great friends and always helped each other out.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to explore the plants and flowers. They saw a long green vine that climbed up the wall. It had many leaves and some purple flowers.
+
+"Look, Tom, a vine!" Lily said. "It is so pretty and long. How long do you think it is?"
+
+"I don't know, Lily. Maybe we can measure it," Tom said. He looked around and found a stick. He broke it into two pieces. "Here, take one piece. We can use them as rulers."
+
+Lily and Tom started to measure the vine with their sticks. They put one stick next to the other, and counted how many sticks they needed to reach the end of the vine. They had fun and learned some numbers.
+
+"Wow, the vine is very long. It is ten sticks long!" Lily said.
+
+"That's amazing, Lily. The vine is longer than me!" Tom said.
+
+They smiled and hugged each other. They were proud of their measuring skills. They did not know that the vine was harmless, but they did not touch it anyway. They respected the plant and admired its beauty. They went to find more things to measure in the garden. They had a wonderful day.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with paint. They have many colors of paint. They can make red, blue, yellow, green, and more.
+
+One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big wall. The wall is white and boring. Lily and Ben have an idea. They want to paint the wall. They ask their moms if they can.
+
+"Can we paint the wall, mom?" Lily says.
+
+"Can we, can we, please?" Ben says.
+
+Their moms look at the wall. They look at Lily and Ben. They smile.
+
+"Okay, you can paint the wall. But you have to stay near us. And you have to be careful. And you have to clean up when you are done. Do you understand?" Lily's mom says.
+
+"Yes, mom, we understand. Thank you, thank you!" Lily and Ben say.
+
+They run to the wall with their paint. They start to paint. They paint flowers, stars, animals, and more. They use many colors. They have fun. They make the wall great.
+
+Their moms watch them. They are proud of Lily and Ben. They take pictures of them and the wall. They say, "You are great painters, Lily and Ben. You made the wall beautiful. Well done!"
+Tom and Mia are playing with their cat, Luna. Luna likes to chase the yarn that Tom and Mia swing in front of her. She jumps and paws at the yarn, and sometimes catches it in her mouth. Tom and Mia laugh and clap when Luna does that.
+
+But one day, Luna sees something different outside the window. She sees a bird on a branch. The bird is small and brown, and it sings a pretty song. Luna wants to catch the bird. She forgets about the yarn and runs to the window. She meows and scratches at the glass.
+
+"Look, Mia, Luna wants to go outside!" Tom says.
+
+"No, Tom, Luna can't go outside. She might get lost or hurt. We have to keep her inside," Mia says.
+
+But Luna does not listen. She sees a small hole in the screen. She pushes her head through the hole and escapes. She jumps down from the window and runs to the bird. The bird sees Luna and flies away. Luna is sad and confused. She does not know where she is or how to get back.
+
+Tom and Mia see Luna run away. They are scared and worried. They run outside and call for Luna.
+
+"Luna, Luna, where are you?" they shout.
+
+Luna hears their voices. She is happy and relieved. She runs to them and rubs against their legs. They hug her and carry her back inside.
+
+"Luna, you are naughty. You can't escape like that. You could have been in danger," Mia says.
+
+"We love you, Luna. We don't want you to get lost. You have to stay with us," Tom says.
+
+Luna purrs and licks their faces. She is sorry and grateful. She does not want to escape again. She likes to play with the yarn and be with Tom and Mia. They are her family.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw many leaves on the ground. Some were red, some were yellow, some were brown. Lily picked up a red leaf and showed it to Ben.
+
+"Look, Ben, this leaf is red. It is very pretty," Lily said.
+
+Ben nodded. He liked the red leaf too. He picked up a yellow leaf and showed it to Lily.
+
+"Look, Lily, this leaf is yellow. It is very bright," Ben said.
+
+Lily smiled. She liked the yellow leaf too. She asked Ben, "Why are the leaves different colors?"
+
+Ben thought for a moment. He remembered what his mom had told him. He tried to explain to Lily.
+
+"Mom said the leaves change colors when it is fall. Fall is when it gets colder and the days get shorter. The leaves get less sun and water, so they stop being green. They turn red, yellow, or brown before they fall off the trees," Ben said.
+
+Lily listened to Ben. She understood a little bit. She said, "Oh, I see. That is very interesting. Thank you for explaining, Ben."
+
+Ben smiled. He was happy to share what he knew. He said, "You're welcome, Lily. Do you want to make a leaf pile and jump in it?"
+
+Lily nodded. She thought that sounded like fun. She said, "Yes, let's do that. That will be very cute."
+
+They gathered many leaves and made a big leaf pile. Then they ran and jumped in it. They laughed and played. They had a lot of fun with the leaves.
+Sara and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Sara had a big doll that could talk and sing. Ben had a truck that could load and unload things. Sara liked her doll very much, but she did not like to share it with anyone. She was a spoiled girl.
+
+"Can I play with your doll, Sara?" Ben asked politely. He wanted to see how the doll worked.
+
+"No, you can't!" Sara snapped. "This is my doll, and you have your truck. Go away!"
+
+Ben felt sad and angry. He did not think Sara was nice. He decided to play with his truck by himself. He found some buttons, coins, and paper clips on the table. He loaded them on his truck and drove it around the room.
+
+Sara ignored Ben and hugged her doll. She pressed a button on the doll's back and made it sing a song. She smiled and sang along. She did not notice that one of the buttons on the table was a pin. It had a sharp point and a round head.
+
+Ben saw the pin and had an idea. He wanted to teach Sara a lesson. He waited until Sara was not looking and unloaded the pin from his truck. He sneaked behind Sara and stuck the pin in the doll's dress. He hoped it would make a hole or a stitch.
+
+Sara felt something poke her hand. She screamed and dropped the doll. She saw the pin and the blood on her finger. She cried and ran to her mom.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, Ben hurt me and my doll!" she wailed.
+
+Mom came and saw what happened. She took Sara and the doll to the bathroom. She cleaned Sara's finger and put a band-aid on it. She looked at the doll and saw the pin. She pulled it out and saw a small stitch on the doll's dress.
+
+"Who did this to your doll, Sara?" Mom asked.
+
+"Ben did it! He was mean to me and my doll!" Sara said.
+
+Mom frowned and called Ben. Ben came and looked guilty. He knew he did something wrong.
+
+"Ben, did you put this pin in Sara's doll?" Mom asked.
+
+Ben nodded and hung his head. He was sorry for hurting Sara and the doll.
+
+"Why did you do that, Ben?" Mom asked.
+
+"Because Sara was spoiled and did not let me play with her doll," Ben said.
+
+Mom sighed and shook her head. She was disappointed in both of them.
+
+"Sara, you should learn to share your toys with your brother. He just wanted to play with you and your doll. You were selfish and rude," Mom said.
+
+"Sara, you should learn to be kind and gentle with your toys. You could have damaged your doll or hurt yourself. You were naughty and careless," Mom said.
+
+Mom made Sara and Ben apologize to each other and hug. She told them to play nicely and not to fight. She gave them each a cookie and a glass of milk. She hoped they would get along better. She loved them both very much.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to show each other their favorite ones. Lily had a delicate doll with a pink dress and long hair. Ben had a big truck with loud noises and flashing lights.
+
+"Look at my doll, Ben. She is so pretty and soft. Do you want to hold her?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, thank you. I like my truck better. It is strong and fast. Watch this!" Ben said. He pushed a button and the truck zoomed across the floor, making a loud honk.
+
+Lily was scared. She hugged her doll and moved away from the truck. "Ben, stop! You are making too much noise. You will break my doll. She is delicate, not like your truck."
+
+Ben did not stop. He liked to make noise and have fun. He pushed another button and the truck spun around, making a siren sound.
+
+Lily was angry. She threw her doll at the truck, hoping to stop it. But she missed and the doll hit the window. The window cracked and the doll fell outside.
+
+Lily and Ben gasped. They ran to the window and looked outside. It was dark and windy. They saw their doll lying on the wet grass. They also saw a big storm coming. It was a hurricane.
+
+"Mama! Papa! Help!" they cried. "Our doll is outside and there is a hurricane!"
+
+Their parents heard them and came to the living room. They saw the broken window and the storm. They were worried.
+
+"Quick, kids, get your coats and shoes. We have to go to the basement. There is a hurricane and it is dangerous. We will be safe there." their mother said.
+
+"But what about our doll?" Lily asked. "She is delicate and she will get hurt by the hurricane."
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily, but we can't get her now. It is too risky. Maybe we can find her later, when the hurricane is over. Come on, let's go." their father said.
+
+Lily and Ben followed their parents to the basement. They were sad and scared. They hoped their doll would be okay. They hoped the hurricane would go away soon. They learned that some things are more important than toys. They learned to be careful with delicate things. They learned to show respect to each other.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big sign with many words and pictures. They want to know what it says.
+
+"Can you read the sign, Ben?" Lily asks.
+
+"No, I can't. It has too many words. I only know some words, like cat and dog and ball," Ben says.
+
+"Me too. I know some words, like sun and moon and star," Lily says.
+
+They think hard. They try to guess what the sign says. They look at the pictures.
+
+"Maybe the sign says, 'Do not touch the flowers. They are pretty, but they can hurt you,'" Lily says.
+
+"Or maybe the sign says, 'Be careful of the bees. They are small, but they can sting you,'" Ben says.
+
+They are not sure. They wish they could read the sign.
+
+Then they see a man walking by. He has a book in his hand. He looks smart.
+
+"Excuse me, sir. Can you read the sign for us?" Lily asks.
+
+The man smiles. He stops and looks at the sign.
+
+"Sure, I can. The sign says, 'Welcome to the park. Have fun and be safe. Follow the rules and respect the nature,'" the man says.
+
+"Wow, thank you, sir. That is a good sign. It tells us to enjoy the park and be nice to the flowers and the bees," Lily says.
+
+"You're welcome, kids. I'm glad you like the sign. Reading is fun and useful. You can learn many things from books and signs. Maybe one day, you can read them too," the man says.
+
+He gives them his book. It has many pictures and words. He says goodbye and walks away.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They look at the book. They try to read the words. They think they can learn to read. They think reading is good.
+Sara and Ben are furry cats who live in a big house with their human friend, Anna. One day, it rains a lot and the water comes into the house. Sara and Ben are scared and run to the sofa.
+
+"Meow, meow, what do we do?" Sara asks Ben.
+
+"Meow, meow, we have to jump to the table. It is high and dry," Ben says.
+
+They jump from the sofa to the table, but the water keeps rising. They see Anna coming with a big box.
+
+"Come on, Sara and Ben, get in the box. I will take you to a safe place," Anna says.
+
+She puts the box on her head and walks out of the house. Sara and Ben peek out of the box and see the flood. They are glad that Anna is with them.
+
+"Meow, meow, thank you, Anna. You are a good friend," Sara and Ben say.
+
+Anna smiles and hugs the box. She takes them to her car and drives away from the flood. She finds a nice hotel where they can stay until the water goes down. Sara and Ben are happy and warm in the hotel. They play with Anna and cuddle with her. They hope that their house will be okay soon.
+Tim and Kim are twins who like to play with toys. One day, they find a laser in their dad's room. It is shiny and red and makes a funny sound. They want to see what it can do, so they take it to the backyard.
+
+They point the laser at the grass, the fence, the tree, and the sky. They laugh and clap when they see the bright light. But then, they hear a loud roar. They turn around and see a big dog running towards them. The dog is angry and has sharp teeth. It wants to bite them.
+
+Tim and Kim are scared. They drop the laser and run to the house. They scream for their mom and dad. The dog chases them and barks. It sees the laser on the ground and stops. It sniffs the laser and picks it up with its mouth. It likes the shiny thing.
+
+Tim and Kim reach the door and slam it shut. They hug each other and cry. Their mom and dad come and hug them too. They ask them what happened. Tim and Kim tell them about the laser and the dog. Their dad goes to the window and looks outside. He sees the dog playing with the laser. He shakes his head and smiles.
+
+He says, "That's not a laser, kids. That's a remote control for the garage. You shouldn't play with things that are not yours. And you should be careful of strange dogs. They can be dangerous."
+
+Tim and Kim say they are sorry and they won't do it again. They ask their dad if he can get the remote back. He says he will try, but he might need a bone. Tim and Kim giggle. They say they love their dad and their mom. They say they are not scared anymore. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pond with ducks and fish. Lily wants to swim with the ducks. She says to Tom, "Let's swim with the ducks. It will be fun."
+
+Tom is scared. He says to Lily, "No, we can't swim with the ducks. The pond is deep and cold. We don't have a tie to hold us. We might sink or get lost."
+
+Lily is not scared. She says to Tom, "Don't be scared. We can swim with the ducks. We can use this stick as a tie. We can hold the stick and swim together. We won't sink or get lost."
+
+Tom is not sure. He says to Lily, "Are you sure? The stick is not very strong. The ducks might bite us. The fish might tickle us."
+
+Lily is sure. She says to Tom, "Trust me. The stick is strong enough. The ducks won't bite us. The fish will tickle us and make us laugh. It will be interesting."
+
+Lily and Tom hold the stick and go into the pond. They swim with the ducks and the fish. They laugh and have fun. They think it is interesting. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily liked to play with their toy yachts in the pond. They had one big yacht and one small yacht. Tom wanted the big yacht, but Lily said it was hers. Tom was mad. He tried to grab the big yacht from Lily, but she held it tight.
+
+"Let go of my yacht!" Lily said.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Tom said.
+
+They pulled and pulled, but the yacht did not move. Then Tom had an idea. He pushed Lily into the pond. Splash! Lily got wet and cold. She dropped the big yacht and cried.
+
+"Ha ha, now I have the big yacht!" Tom said. He sailed the big yacht in the pond. He was happy.
+
+But not for long. Lily got out of the pond and ran to their mom. She told her what Tom did. Mom was angry. She went to the pond and took the big yacht from Tom. She gave it back to Lily and told Tom to say sorry.
+
+"Sorry, Lily," Tom said. He did not mean it.
+
+Mom made Tom sit on a bench and watch Lily play with the big yacht. He was sad. He wished he had been nice to Lily. He looked at the small yacht. It was calm and lonely in the pond. He wished he had played with it instead.
+Mia and Ben were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes the ball would go very far and they had to look for it.
+
+"Where is the ball?" Mia asked Ben. "I kicked it to you and it went behind the tree."
+
+Ben ran to the tree and looked around. He could not see the ball. He looked under the tree, behind the bushes, and in the grass. He could not find the ball anywhere.
+
+"The ball is gone!" Ben said. "It vanished!"
+
+Mia came to help Ben. She was sad. She liked the ball. It was red and shiny and bouncy. It was a gift from their grandma. She gave it to them yesterday when she came to visit.
+
+"Maybe someone took the ball," Mia said. "Maybe a dog or a bird or a squirrel."
+
+Ben shook his head. "No, no one took the ball. It just vanished. It was magic."
+
+Mia and Ben did not know what to do. They sat on the ground and hugged each other. They missed their ball.
+
+Then they heard a voice. It was their grandma. She was walking towards them with a big smile and a basket.
+
+"Hello, my darlings!" she said. "I have a surprise for you. I made some tasty cookies for you. Do you want some?"
+
+Mia and Ben looked up and saw their grandma. They also saw something else. It was their ball. It was in the basket, next to the cookies.
+
+"Grandma, you found our ball!" Mia said. "Where was it?"
+
+Grandma laughed. "It was in my car. I forgot to give it to you yesterday. I put it in the basket this morning and brought it to you. I'm sorry I made you worry."
+
+Mia and Ben were happy. They hugged their grandma and thanked her. They took their ball and their cookies and went to play again. They did not care if the ball was magic or not. They just loved it.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to roll down the hill and feel the wind on their faces. They laughed and shouted as they rolled.
+
+But then they saw a big cloud of fog coming from the street. It was white and thick and smelled spicy. They heard a loud noise and saw a big truck with a red and yellow sign. The truck was spraying water on the street.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"It is a fog machine," Tom said. "It makes fog for movies and shows. The water has something in it that makes it spicy. It is not good to breathe."
+
+"Can we play with it?" Lily asked.
+
+"No, we can't," Tom said. "It is not safe. We have to stay away from it. Come on, let's go to the swings."
+
+Tom and Lily ran to the swings and forgot about the fog. They pushed each other and swung high in the air. They had fun and did not mind the spicy smell. They were happy to play in the park.
+Lila and Ben are playing in the park. They like to slide, swing and run. But they also like to explore. They see a big fence with a sign. The sign has words they do not know. But they see a picture of a dog with a red cross.
+
+"Look, Ben, a dog!" Lila says.
+
+"Can we go and see it?" Ben asks.
+
+Lila thinks. She knows they should not go where the sign is. But she is curious. She says, "Maybe it is a nice dog. Maybe it is harmless."
+
+She pulls Ben's hand and they go to the fence. They find a hole and crawl through. They see a big house with a yard. And they see the dog. It is not nice. It is not harmless. It is big and angry. It barks and growls. It runs to them.
+
+Lila and Ben are scared. They try to run back to the fence. But the dog is faster. It catches Ben's leg and bites. Ben screams. Lila cries.
+
+A man comes out of the house. He sees the dog and the children. He shouts, "Bad dog! Let go!" He runs to them and pulls the dog away. He sees Ben's leg. It is bleeding. He says, "I'm sorry, kids. Are you OK? What are you doing here? Don't you know the law? You can't come here. This is private property. And this is a guard dog. He is not friendly. He is trained to protect."
+
+Lila and Ben are sorry too. They say, "We're sorry, sir. We didn't know. We just wanted to see the dog. We thought he was harmless. We didn't see the words on the sign. We only saw the picture."
+
+The man sighs. He says, "You should have stayed away from the sign. It means danger. It means no trespassing. It means stay out. You are lucky the dog didn't hurt you more. Come on, I'll take you to the hospital. And then I'll call your parents. They need to know what happened. And they need to teach you to respect the law and to be careful."
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to eat cereal for breakfast. They had different bowls and spoons, but they always wanted the same cereal. One morning, they both reached for the box of crunchy flakes, but there was only a little bit left.
+
+"Mine!" Lily shouted, grabbing the box and pouring some flakes into her bowl.
+
+"No, mine!" Ben shouted, snatching the box from Lily and spilling some flakes on the floor.
+
+"Stop it!" their mom shouted, coming into the kitchen. "You are making a mess and being rude. Share the cereal or you will get none."
+
+But Lily and Ben did not listen. They kept pulling and pushing the box, trying to get more flakes. They did not see the harmless ant that was crawling on the floor, looking for some food. The ant climbed on the box and bit Ben's finger.
+
+"Ow!" Ben shouted, dropping the box and shaking his hand. "It hurts!"
+
+Lily laughed and picked up the box. "Ha ha, now it's all mine!"
+
+But then she felt a sting on her lip. The ant had bitten her too.
+
+"Ow!" Lily shouted, throwing the box and touching her lip. "It hurts!"
+
+Their mom came back with a wet cloth and some ice. She saw the box on the floor, the flakes everywhere, and the twins crying. She was very angry and sad.
+
+"That's it!" she shouted. "No cereal for you today. And no TV, no toys, no fun. You will stay in your room and think about what you did. You were greedy and mean, and now you have ant bites. I hope you learned your lesson."
+
+She took Lily and Ben to their room and closed the door. They had no cereal, no fun, and no friends. They only had their ant bites and their tears. They wished they had shared the cereal and been nice. But it was too late. They had a bad ending.
+Lia and Ben are kids who like to play together. They have many toys, but their favorite is a big box. They can make the box into anything they want. Sometimes it is a castle, sometimes it is a spaceship, sometimes it is a cave.
+
+One day, they decide to make the box into a zoo. They use their stuffed animals and draw signs and cages. They pretend to be zookeepers and visitors. They have a lot of fun.
+
+"Look at this lion, he is so big and loud!" Ben says, holding his toy lion.
+
+"Wow, he is scary! And look at this panda, he is so cute and soft!" Lia says, hugging her toy panda.
+
+They go around the box and see all the different animals. They make noises and stories for each one.
+
+But then, they hear a voice from outside the box. It is Mom.
+
+"Kids, it is time to end your play. You have to clean up and get ready for dinner," Mom says.
+
+Lia and Ben are sad. They do not want to end their play. They want to stay in their zoo.
+
+"Can we play a little more, Mom? Please?" Lia asks.
+
+"Sorry, kids, but no. You have to clean up now. You can play again tomorrow," Mom says.
+
+Lia and Ben sigh. They start to put their toys away. They fold the box and put it in the corner.
+
+They look at each other and smile.
+
+"We have the best zoo ever, right?" Ben says.
+
+"Yes, we do. We have the most unique animals and the most fun stories," Lia says.
+
+They hug each other and go to Mom.
+
+They are happy. They are kids who like to play together.
+Lily and Max were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were brave knights and dragons. Lily had a stick for a weapon and Max had a scarf for a tail.
+
+"Roar!" Max shouted, as he ran towards Lily. "I am a fierce dragon and I will eat you!"
+
+Lily waved her stick and said, "No, you won't! I am a strong knight and I will stop you!"
+
+They chased each other around the trees and the swings, laughing and growling. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then they saw a big dog coming towards them. It had sharp teeth and a loud bark. It looked angry and scary.
+
+Lily and Max stopped playing and ran to each other. They hugged and felt afraid.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Lily said, holding her stick. "You are not nice!"
+
+"Roar!" Max said, trying to sound brave. "You are not a dragon! You are a mean dog!"
+
+But the dog did not listen. It came closer and closer, barking and snarling.
+
+Lily and Max wished they had a real weapon, or a real dragon, or a real knight to help them.
+
+But then they heard a voice. It was their mom.
+
+"Hey, kids, what are you doing?" she said, as she walked towards them. "Are you having fun?"
+
+She saw the dog and said, "Oh, don't worry, that's just Rex. He's a friendly dog. He just wants to play with you."
+
+She called the dog and gave him a treat. The dog wagged his tail and licked her hand.
+
+Lily and Max felt relieved and curious. They dropped their stick and scarf and went to pet the dog.
+
+"Hi, Rex," Lily said, as she stroked his fur. "You are a nice dog."
+
+"Roar," Max said, as he tickled his ears. "You are a funny dog."
+
+The dog licked their faces and wagged his tail. He was happy and playful.
+
+Lily and Max smiled and laughed. They were happy and peaceful.
+
+They thanked their mom and asked if they could play with Rex some more.
+
+"Sure, you can," she said, as she watched them. "But be gentle and careful. He's a big dog."
+
+Lily and Max nodded and agreed. They played with Rex and had more fun.
+
+They learned that not all dogs are mean, and not all roars are scary. They learned that sometimes, a friend can be a better weapon than a stick. They learned that playing can be peaceful and fun.
+Lily liked to play with her blocks. She had many blocks of different shapes and colors. She could make towers, houses, cars and animals with her blocks. She was very good at making things with her blocks.
+
+One day, she wanted to make a big triangle with her blocks. She found three long blocks that were blue. She put one block on the floor and two blocks on top of it. She made a triangle with her blocks. She was very happy with her triangle.
+
+She wanted to show her triangle to her mom. She picked up her triangle and ran to the kitchen. But when she ran, her triangle fell apart. The blocks fell on the floor and made a loud noise. Lily was very sad. She cried and cried.
+
+Her mom heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw Lily crying and the blocks on the floor. She hugged Lily and said, "Don't cry, my sweetie. You can make another triangle with your blocks. It's okay."
+
+She helped Lily pick up the blocks and bring them back to her room. She showed Lily how to make a triangle with her blocks again. She said, "Look, you made a triangle with your blocks. It's very nice. But if you want to move it, you have to hold it very carefully. Or you can leave it here and make something else with your other blocks."
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She said, "Thank you, mom. I like my triangle. But I also want to make a car with my blocks. Can you help me?"
+
+Her mom said, "Of course, I can help you. Let's make a car with your blocks. But your triangle can remain here. It's very pretty."
+
+Lily agreed. She left her triangle on the floor and made a car with her mom. She had fun with her blocks. She was very happy.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a big gray dog in the park. The dog is friendly and wants to play with them.
+
+"Look, mom, a dog!" Sara says. "Can we pet him?"
+
+"Sure, but be gentle and ask the owner first," mom says.
+
+They run to the dog and his owner, a nice lady. The lady says they can pet the dog. His name is Max. Max is soft and warm. He licks Sara and Ben's faces. They giggle and hug him.
+
+"Max is so comfortable," Ben says. "Can we take him home?"
+
+"Sorry, no, he is my dog," the lady says. "But you can play with him here for a while."
+
+Sara and Ben are happy. They throw a ball for Max and he runs after it. He brings it back and drops it at their feet. They do this again and again. They have a lot of fun with Max.
+
+"Thank you for letting us play with your dog," Sara says to the lady.
+
+"You're welcome, he likes you too," the lady says. "Maybe we'll see you again in the park."
+
+Sara and Ben wave goodbye to Max and the lady. They run back to their mom and dad. They tell them all about Max and how comfortable he is. They hope to see him again soon.
+Ben and Lily like to play in the garden. They gather flowers and leaves and make a big pile. They pretend it is a castle and they are the king and queen.
+
+One day, they see a lime tree in the corner of the garden. It has green and yellow fruits that look like balls. Ben and Lily want to try them.
+
+"Can we pick some limes, Mom?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. They are sour and they can make your face funny," Mom says.
+
+Ben and Lily run to the lime tree. They reach for the fruits that are low and easy to get. They each take one and peel it with their fingers. They smell the lime and it makes their noses tickle.
+
+They take a bite and make a face. The lime is sour and bitter. It makes their tongues hurt and their eyes water.
+
+"Yuck! This is not good!" Ben says.
+
+"I don't like it either!" Lily says.
+
+They spit out the lime and throw it away. They run back to their flower pile and drink some water.
+
+"Let's play with our castle. It is more fun than limes," Ben says.
+
+"OK. You be the king and I be the queen. And we can have a tea party with our cups and plates," Lily says.
+
+They play with their castle and forget about the limes. They are happy and have fun. They are slow and careful with their cups and plates. They do not want to break them. They smile and laugh and talk. They love their garden and each other.
+Sam and Lily liked to play at the beach. They liked to swim and make sand castles. One day, they saw a dolphin in the water. The dolphin was lively and jumped and splashed. Sam and Lily wanted to say hello to the dolphin.
+
+They swam closer to the dolphin and waved their hands. The dolphin came near them and made a funny noise. Sam and Lily laughed and touched the dolphin's skin. It was smooth and wet. The dolphin seemed to like them too.
+
+But then, a big boat came. The boat was loud and fast. It did not see the dolphin. The boat hit the dolphin with its propeller. The dolphin cried out and blood came out of its tail. Sam and Lily were scared and sad. They tried to help the dolphin.
+
+"Please, don't die, dolphin!" Sam said. "We will fix you!"
+
+But they did not know how to fix the dolphin. The dolphin was hurt too much. It stopped moving and breathing. It floated on the water. Sam and Lily cried and hugged the dolphin. They said sorry to the dolphin.
+
+The end.
+Lily was shy. She did not like to talk to new people. She liked to play with her dolls and books at home.
+
+One day, her mom said, "Lily, we are going to a birthday party. It is for your friend Anna. She is turning four. You can give her a gift and have fun with her."
+
+Lily felt scared. She did not know Anna very well. She did not want to go to a party with many people. She said, "Mom, can I stay home? I do not want to go."
+
+Mom said, "No, Lily, you have to go. Anna is your friend. She will be happy to see you. And you have a nice gift for her. It is a pink dress. She will love it."
+
+Lily did not say anything. She put on her coat and shoes. She took the gift and followed mom to the car.
+
+At the party, there were many kids. They were playing games, eating cake, and making noise. Lily felt shy. She did not join them. She stayed close to mom.
+
+Anna saw Lily and ran to her. She said, "Hi, Lily! Thank you for coming to my party. Do you have a gift for me?"
+
+Lily nodded. She held out the gift. She did not look at Anna.
+
+Anna smiled. She took the gift and opened it. She said, "Wow, Lily, this is a beautiful dress. It is pink, my favorite color. Thank you so much. You are a good friend."
+
+Lily felt happy. She saw Anna liked her gift. She looked at Anna and smiled.
+
+Anna said, "Do you want to play with me? We can wear our dresses and pretend to be princesses."
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, I want to play with you."
+
+Anna took Lily's hand and led her to the other kids. They played and had fun. Lily was not shy anymore. She made a new friend.
+Sara liked to create things with her crayons and paper. She made pictures of flowers, animals, and people. One day, she decided to create a princess. She drew a big dress, a crown, and long hair. She was very proud of her princess.
+
+She showed her picture to her friend, Leo, who was deaf. He could not hear what she said, but he could read her lips and use sign language. He smiled and pointed at her picture. He said with his hands, "Your princess is pretty. What is her name?"
+
+Sara thought for a moment. She wanted to give her princess a name that Leo could understand. She said with her mouth and her hands, "Her name is Ruby. Like the red stone. She is a princess who can create magic with her jewels."
+
+Leo nodded and clapped his hands. He said with his hands, "That is a cool name. Can I create a prince for her?" He picked up a blue crayon and a paper.
+
+Sara nodded and smiled. She said with her mouth and her hands, "Yes, you can. Let's create a story for them. Maybe they can go on an adventure together."
+
+They worked on their pictures and their story. They had fun creating with their crayons and their words. They were happy to be friends.
+Sara and Ben are playing outside after the rain. They see a big puddle on the grass. Sara wants to touch the puddle with her hand. She thinks it will be fun.
+
+"Look, Ben, a puddle!" Sara says. "Can I touch it?"
+
+Ben shakes his head. He knows the puddle is wet and dirty. He does not want to touch it. He does not want Sara to touch it either.
+
+"No, Sara, don't touch it!" Ben says. "You will get wet and dirty. Mom will be mad."
+
+But Sara does not listen. She runs to the puddle and puts her hand in it. She feels the water and the mud. She laughs and splashes. She thinks it is fun.
+
+"Ha ha, Ben, look at me!" Sara says. "I am touching the puddle. It is wet and cold and fun."
+
+Ben does not laugh. He sees Sara's hand and clothes are wet and dirty. He knows Mom will be mad. He tries to pull Sara away from the puddle.
+
+"Stop, Sara, stop!" Ben says. "You are wet and dirty. Mom will be mad. Come on, let's go home."
+
+But Sara does not want to go home. She wants to touch the puddle more. She does not care if she is wet and dirty. She does not care if Mom is mad. She pulls her hand away from Ben and touches the puddle again.
+
+"No, Ben, no!" Sara says. "I want to touch the puddle. It is fun. You touch it too."
+
+Ben does not want to touch the puddle. He wants to go home. He is sad and angry. He does not know what to do. He wishes Sara would listen to him. He wishes the puddle would go away.
+Sara likes to polish her shoes. She has a red cloth and a shiny tin. She rubs the cloth on the tin and then on her shoes. She makes them look very bright and clean.
+
+One day, a big dog comes to her yard. The dog is black and has sharp teeth. He barks and growls at Sara. He wants to bite her shoes. Sara is scared. She thinks the dog is crazy.
+
+She runs to the house and calls for her mom. Her mom comes out and sees the dog. She picks up a stick and waves it at the dog. She says, "Go away, you bad dog! You are a threat to my girl and her shoes!" The dog sees the stick and hears the mom. He is afraid. He turns and runs away.
+
+Sara hugs her mom and says, "Thank you, mom. You saved me and my shoes." Her mom hugs her back and says, "You're welcome, Sara. I love you and your shoes." They go inside and have a snack. Sara polishes her shoes again. She is happy.
+Ben and Lily were twins. They liked to play with their toys and eat snacks. One day, their mom gave them a pear each. Ben liked pears, but Lily did not.
+
+"Yuck, I don't want this pear. It is rough and green," Lily said. She threw her pear on the floor.
+
+"Hey, don't do that. That is not nice. Mom will be sad," Ben said. He picked up the pear and wiped it with a napkin.
+
+"I have an idea. Let's wrap the pear with paper and give it to dad. He likes pears. Maybe he will be happy," Ben said.
+
+"Okay, that sounds fun. Where is the paper?" Lily asked.
+
+"Look, there is some paper in the drawer. And here is some tape and a marker. We can make the pear look pretty," Ben said.
+
+They took the paper, the tape and the marker and went to the table. They wrapped the pear with the paper and taped it. Then they drew a smiley face and wrote "For dad" on the paper.
+
+"Wow, it looks good. Let's go and find dad," Lily said.
+
+They ran to the living room, where their dad was reading a book. They gave him the wrapped pear and hugged him.
+
+"Surprise, dad. We have a gift for you. We hope you like it," Ben and Lily said.
+
+"Thank you, my sweeties. You are so thoughtful. What is it?" dad asked.
+
+He opened the paper and saw the pear. He smiled and kissed them.
+
+"It is a pear. We know you like pears. We wrapped it for you," Ben and Lily said.
+
+"It is a wonderful pear. And a wonderful wrap. And you are wonderful twins. I love you very much," dad said.
+
+He took a bite of the pear and shared it with them. They all enjoyed the pear and the wrap. They were happy.
+Lily loved elephants. She had a big toy elephant that she hugged every night. She wanted to see a real elephant, but her mom said they lived far away. Lily asked her mom, "Please, can we go to the zoo and see the elephants?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Maybe for your birthday, we can go to the zoo. But you have to be good and listen to me, okay?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Okay, mom. I will be good and listen to you."
+
+Lily waited for her birthday. She counted the days on her fingers. She was good and listened to her mom. She helped with the dishes, she cleaned her room, she shared her toys with her brother. She was very excited to go to the zoo.
+
+On her birthday, her mom took her to the zoo. Lily saw many animals, but she only wanted to see the elephants. She ran to the elephant enclosure and saw a big gray elephant with thick skin and a long trunk. She was amazed. She wanted to touch the elephant, but her mom said, "No, Lily. You can't touch the elephant. It's dangerous. You have to stay behind the fence."
+
+Lily was sad. She said, "Please, mom. Just one touch. I love elephants. They are so soft and cuddly."
+
+Her mom said, "No, Lily. They are not soft and cuddly. They are big and strong. They can hurt you. You have to listen to me."
+
+Lily did not listen. She waited for her mom to look away. She climbed over the fence and ran to the elephant. She reached out her hand and touched the elephant's trunk. The elephant did not like it. It trumpeted loudly and swung its trunk. It hit Lily hard and knocked her down. Lily cried out in pain.
+
+Her mom heard her cry and ran to her. She saw Lily on the ground, bleeding and bruised. She saw the elephant, angry and scared. She was terrified. She grabbed Lily and carried her to the first aid station. She hugged her and said, "Oh, Lily. Why did you do that? Why didn't you listen to me? I told you it was dangerous. You could have been killed."
+
+Lily sobbed and said, "I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry. I just wanted to touch the elephant. I thought it was soft and cuddly. I didn't know it was big and strong. I didn't know it would hurt me."
+
+Her mom said, "It's okay, Lily. I'm glad you're alive. I love you. But you have to learn to listen to me. I know what's best for you. I want you to be safe and happy. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I understand. I will listen to you. I love you too."
+
+The moral of the story is: Listen to your parents. They know what's best for you. Don't do things that are dangerous. Respect the animals. They are not toys. They have feelings and needs.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Ben had a toy car that he liked very much. He wanted to make it go faster, so he decided to attach a balloon to it. He blew up the balloon and tied it to the car with a string.
+
+"Look, Lily, my car can fly!" he said, holding the car with the balloon in his hand.
+
+"Wow, that's cool, Ben!" Lily said, clapping her hands. "Can I try it too?"
+
+"Sure, here you go," Ben said, giving the car to Lily. "But be careful, don't let go of the string."
+
+Lily took the car and the balloon and ran around the room. She was very happy and excited. She did not notice that the string was getting loose. She was careless.
+
+Suddenly, the string slipped from her hand and the car and the balloon flew away. They went up and up, until they reached the kitchen. There, Mom was making soup for lunch. She had a big pot of soup on the stove, and she was stirring it with a spoon.
+
+The car and the balloon crashed into the pot of soup. The soup splashed everywhere. It made a big mess. It burned Mom's hand and arm. She screamed.
+
+"Ouch! What was that?" Mom said, dropping the spoon.
+
+Ben and Lily heard Mom's scream and ran to the kitchen. They saw the car and the balloon in the pot of soup. They saw the soup on the floor and on the walls. They saw Mom's hand and arm red and sore. They felt very sorry.
+
+"Mom, we're sorry, we're sorry!" they said, hugging Mom.
+
+"It's okay, it's okay," Mom said, hugging them back. "But you have to be more careful next time. Playing with balloons and cars is fun, but not near the soup. The soup is hot and can hurt you."
+
+"We know, Mom, we know," they said. "We love you, Mom."
+
+"I love you too, Ben and Lily," Mom said. "Now let's clean up this mess and have some soup. But not this soup. This soup is ruined. We'll have some other soup."
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and books. They have a lot of fun together.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben find a big box in the garage. They want to make a fort with the box. They use scissors, tape and markers to cut and decorate the box.
+
+"Look, our fort is ready!" Anna says. "Let's go inside and pretend we are pirates!"
+
+"Okay!" Ben says. He follows Anna into the box.
+
+They play pirates for a long time. They make noises and act out adventures. They have a treasure map and a parrot.
+
+But then, Ben gets bored. He wants to play something else.
+
+"Anna, can we play cars now?" Ben asks. "I have a new car that goes very fast. It is red and shiny."
+
+"No, Ben, we are playing pirates!" Anna says. "We have to find the treasure and fight the bad guys. Don't you like pirates?"
+
+"I do, but I also like cars," Ben says. "Please, Anna, let's play cars for a while. We can play pirates again later."
+
+Anna refuses. She likes pirates more than cars. She does not want to stop playing pirates.
+
+"No, Ben, we are not playing cars!" Anna says. "We are playing pirates and that's it. If you don't want to play pirates, you can leave the fort."
+
+Ben is sad and angry. He does not like Anna's answer. He thinks Anna is not a good friend. He does not want to play with her anymore.
+
+"Fine, Anna, I will leave the fort," Ben says. "But I will not play with you again. You are not flexible. You are bossy and mean."
+
+Ben gets out of the box and takes his car. He goes to another corner of the garage and plays by himself.
+
+Anna stays in the box and plays pirates alone. She thinks Ben is silly and rude. She does not care if he does not play with her anymore. She is happy with her fort.
+
+But after a while, Anna gets lonely. She misses Ben. She wonders if he is still angry. She wishes they could play together again.
+
+She looks out of the box and sees Ben playing with his car. He looks sad and bored. He does not look at her.
+
+Anna feels sorry. She realizes she was not nice to Ben. She remembers they are friends. She wants to make up with him.
+
+She gets out of the box and walks to Ben. She smiles and says:
+
+"Ben, I'm sorry. I was wrong. You can play cars if you want. I can play cars too. I can be flexible. Can we be friends again?"
+
+Ben looks up and sees Anna. He smiles and says:
+
+"Anna, I'm sorry too. I was mad. You can play pirates if you want. I can play pirates too. I can be flexible. Of course we can be friends again."
+
+Anna and Ben hug and say sorry. They decide to play both pirates and cars. They take turns and share. They have fun again.
+
+They are happy and flexible friends.
+Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play together. One day, they went to the park with their moms. They saw a big pond with many ducks. Lily and Tom wanted to feed the ducks, so they asked their moms for some bread.
+
+Their moms gave them some bread, but they also gave them some rice. They said, "Rice is better for the ducks than bread. Bread can make them sick. Rice is good for them. Do you want to try some?"
+
+Lily and Tom looked at the rice. It was small and white and hard. They had never eaten rice before. They were curious. They decided to examine the rice. They touched it, smelled it, and tasted it. They liked it. It was crunchy and sweet.
+
+They said, "Mmm, rice is yummy. Can we have more?"
+
+Their moms smiled and said, "Yes, you can have more. But don't forget to share with the ducks. They are hungry too. And be calm and gentle when you feed them. Don't throw the rice or scare them. They are your friends too."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded and said, "Okay, we will share and be calm and gentle. Thank you, moms."
+
+They went to the pond and fed the rice to the ducks. The ducks were happy and quacked. Lily and Tom were happy too. They watched the ducks swim and splash. They learned that rice was good for them and the ducks, and that sharing and being calm and gentle were good ways to make friends. They had a fun and nice day at the park.
+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 doll that she loved very much. She called her doll Anna and gave her hugs and kisses. Ben had a car that he liked to zoom around the floor. He called his car Vroom and made loud sounds with his mouth.
+
+"Can I see your doll?" Ben asked Lily.
+
+"Okay, but be careful. She is delicate. She can break easily," Lily said.
+
+Lily handed her doll to Ben. Ben took the doll and looked at her. He saw her pretty dress and her long hair. He felt her soft body and her hard head.
+
+"Can I play with your car?" Lily asked Ben.
+
+"Okay, but be careful. It is fast. It can hurt you," Ben said.
+
+Ben handed his car to Lily. Lily took the car and looked at it. She saw its shiny wheels and its bright colors. She felt its smooth metal and its sharp edges.
+
+Lily and Ben tried to play with each other's toys, but they did not have much fun. Lily did not know how to make the car go fast. She pushed it slowly and gently. Ben did not know how to make the doll look nice. He pulled her hair and twisted her head.
+
+"I want my doll back," Lily said.
+
+"I want my car back," Ben said.
+
+They gave each other their toys back. But something was wrong. Lily saw that her doll's head was loose and her hair was messy. Ben saw that his car's wheels were bent and its paint was scratched.
+
+"What did you do to my doll?" Lily cried.
+
+"What did you do to my car?" Ben yelled.
+
+They started to fight and blame each other. They threw their toys at each other. They did not want to play together anymore. They did not want to be friends anymore.
+
+Their mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw the broken toys and the angry children. She was very sad and very mad.
+
+"What happened here?" she asked.
+
+They tried to explain, but they could not. They only said sorry and cried.
+
+Their mom took their toys away and put them in the kitchen. She said they could not have them back until they learned to share and be nice. She said they had to go to their rooms and think about what they did.
+
+Lily and Ben went to their rooms. They felt very bad. They wished they had not played with each other's toys. They wished they had not broken them. They wished they had not fought. They wished they had been friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing on the beach. They saw a big shell with a hole in it. They looked inside and saw a tiny crab.
+
+"Hello, crab!" said Lily. "Are you hungry?"
+
+The crab waved its claws and made a clicking sound.
+
+"Maybe it wants some food," said Ben. "Let's find something for it."
+
+They looked around and saw some seaweed, some sand, and some small fish.
+
+"What do you think it likes?" asked Lily.
+
+"I don't know," said Ben. "Let's try them all."
+
+They picked up some seaweed and put it in the shell. The crab sniffed it and pushed it away.
+
+"No, it doesn't like seaweed," said Lily.
+
+They picked up some sand and put it in the shell. The crab spat it out and shook its head.
+
+"No, it doesn't like sand," said Ben.
+
+They picked up some small fish and put it in the shell. The crab grabbed it and ate it with a happy sound.
+
+"Yes, it likes fish!" said Lily and Ben.
+
+They smiled and watched the crab enjoy its meal.
+
+"You are a helpful crab-sitter," said Lily to Ben.
+
+"You are too," said Ben to Lily.
+
+They gave the crab a pat and left it in the shell.
+
+"Bye, crab!" they said. "Have a nice day!"
+
+The crab waved its claws and thanked them.
+Lily and Ben like to act. They have many masks to play with. They can be animals, or heroes, or monsters. They have fun making noises and faces.
+
+One day, they find a new mask in the closet. It is big and scary. It has horns and teeth and fur. Lily wants to try it on. Ben is afraid of it.
+
+"Let me wear it, Ben. I want to be a scary monster," Lily says.
+
+"No, Lily. It is too scary. It will make you bad. Put it back," Ben says.
+
+Lily does not listen. She puts on the mask and growls. She chases Ben around the room. Ben runs and cries. He does not like this game.
+
+"Stop, Lily. Stop. You are not funny. You are mean," Ben says.
+
+Lily does not stop. She likes to scare Ben. She thinks it is funny. She does not see that Ben is sad.
+
+Then, she feels something on her face. It is cold and wet. It is the mask. The mask is cold and wet. It makes Lily cold and wet. She does not like it. She tries to take it off, but it is stuck. She pulls and pulls, but it does not come off.
+
+"Help, Ben. Help. I can't take it off. It hurts," Lily says.
+
+Ben hears Lily. He sees that she is scared. He feels sorry for her. He goes to help her. He holds the mask and pulls. He pulls and pulls, but it does not come off.
+
+"Help, help. We need help. The mask is stuck," Ben and Lily say.
+
+They call for their mom. Their mom comes and sees them. She is surprised and worried. She gets some scissors and cuts the mask. She takes it off Lily's face. She hugs Lily and Ben.
+
+"Are you okay, my loves? What happened?" Mom says.
+
+Lily and Ben tell Mom what happened. They say they are sorry. They say they will not play with the mask again. Mom says it is okay. She says she loves them. She says they should be careful with their masks. She says they should be nice to each other. She says they should have fun, but not hurt each other.
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They hug Mom. They hug each other. They say they are sorry. They say they love each other. They say they will act nicely. They put away their masks. They play a different game. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. Tom had a big truck and Lily had a doll. They were happy and shared their toys.
+
+But then, Sam came in. Sam was older and mean. He saw Tom's truck and wanted it. He said, "Give me your truck, Tom. It is mine now."
+
+Tom said, "No, Sam. It is my truck. You have your own toys. Go away."
+
+Sam did not listen. He grabbed the truck and ran away. Tom was sad and angry. He cried, "Sam, give it back. You steal my truck. That is bad."
+
+Lily saw what happened. She wanted to help Tom. She had a mark in her hand. It was red and made pictures on the wall. She had an idea. She said, "Tom, don't cry. I have a plan. Come with me."
+
+She took Tom to Sam's room. Sam was not there. He left his toys on the floor. Lily said, "Look, Tom. Sam has many toys. He does not need your truck. Let's make him a surprise."
+
+She used the mark to draw on Sam's toys. She made faces and words and lines. She said, "Now, Sam will see what he did was wrong. He will be sorry. He will give you your truck back."
+
+Tom smiled. He liked Lily's plan. He helped her draw on Sam's toys. They had fun and forgot about the truck.
+
+But then, they heard Sam coming. He opened the door and saw his toys. He was shocked and angry. He yelled, "Who did this? Who ruined my toys? You, Tom and Lily. You did this. You are bad."
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They ran away. They went back to the living room. They saw the truck on the couch. It was available. Sam left it there when he saw his toys.
+
+Tom was happy. He grabbed the truck and hugged it. He said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. You helped me get my truck back."
+
+Lily smiled. She said, "You are welcome, Tom. You are a good friend too. You shared your truck with me. Let's play together."
+
+They played with the truck and the doll. They were happy and shared their toys. They did not care about Sam. He was mean and alone. He had to clean his toys. He learned a lesson. He should not steal.
+Tim and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and find things in the dirt. Sometimes they found worms, sometimes they found stones, sometimes they found seeds.
+
+One day, they found a big round thing that smelled funny. It was an onion. Tim wanted to keep it, but Lily said no.
+
+"It will make you cry," she said. "Onions are sad things. They make your eyes wet and your nose runny."
+
+Tim did not believe her. He wanted to see for himself. He took the onion and ran away. Lily chased him, but he was too fast.
+
+Tim ran to the shed, where he had a knife. He wanted to cut the onion and see what was inside. He thought it would be fun. He did not know that it was dangerous.
+
+He put the onion on a table and held the knife. He was about to slice it, when he heard a loud noise. It was Lily's dad. He had come to the shed to get his tools.
+
+He saw Tim with the knife and the onion. He was very angry and scared. He shouted at Tim and took the knife away. He told him to never play with knives. He told him that he could have hurt himself or Lily. He told him that he was very naughty.
+
+Tim felt very bad. He dropped the onion and started to cry. He was sorry for what he did. He did not want to make Lily's dad angry. He did not want to hurt anyone. He did not want to play with the onion anymore.
+
+Lily came to the shed. She saw Tim crying. She felt sorry for him. She hugged him and said, "It's okay, Tim. I'm not mad at you. You just made a mistake. But you have to be careful. Knives are not toys. Onions are not toys. They are for cooking and eating."
+
+Tim nodded. He wiped his tears and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I was curious. I wanted to see the onion. But you were right. It is a sad thing. It made me cry."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "It's okay, Tim. We all learn from our mistakes. Come on, let's go back to the garden. Maybe we can find something else to play with. Something that is not sad. Something that is happy."
+
+They left the shed and went back to the garden. They saw a butterfly. It was colorful and beautiful. It flew from flower to flower. It made them happy. They tried to catch it, but it was too fast. It sprang away from their hands. They laughed and ran after it. They forgot about the onion. They had fun.
+Tom and Anna were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big balloon in the sky. It was red and yellow and had a basket under it. They wanted to go inside the balloon and fly.
+
+"Can we go, please?" they asked their mom.
+
+Mom nodded and smiled. She paid some money to a man who had a rope. The man let them climb into the basket with him. He said he would take them for a ride.
+
+Tom and Anna were very happy. They waved to their mom as the balloon went up. They saw the trees, the cars, the houses, and the birds. They felt like they were in a dream.
+
+But then, the wind blew hard. The balloon started to shake and move fast. Tom and Anna were frightened. They held each other and cried.
+
+"Help, help!" they shouted.
+
+The man tried to calm them down. He said he would land the balloon soon. He pulled a string and made a loud noise. The balloon got smaller and lower.
+
+They saw a big field with some cows. The man said that was where they would land. He told them to hold on tight and bend their knees.
+
+The balloon touched the ground with a bump. Tom and Anna felt a relief. They thanked the man and got out of the basket. They ran to their mom who hugged them and kissed them.
+
+"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," the man said. "The wind was too strong. I didn't mean to scare you."
+
+Mom said it was okay. She said they were brave and lucky. She said they learned a lesson.
+
+"What lesson?" Tom and Anna asked.
+
+Mom said, "Sometimes, things are not what they seem. Sometimes, things that look fun can be dangerous. Sometimes, things that look scary can be safe. You have to be careful and listen to your elders. They know more than you."
+
+Tom and Anna nodded. They understood. They said they would not go into a balloon again. They said they would rather play in the park. They said they loved their mom. Mom said she loved them too. They went home together.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they saw a big bottle of wine on the table. It was red and shiny and looked like juice. They wanted to try some, but they knew it was not for them. It was for their mom and dad, who said wine was only for grown-ups.
+
+But they were very curious and sneaky. They waited until their mom and dad were busy in the kitchen. Then they climbed on a chair and reached for the bottle. They opened it and poured some wine into their cups. They took a sip and made a face. It was not like juice at all. It was bitter and sour and made them cough.
+
+They did not like the wine, but they did not want to waste it. They thought maybe their toys would like it. They poured some wine on their teddy bear, their doll, their car and their train. They made them drink and pretend to be happy. They did not see the wine dripping on the floor and the tablecloth.
+
+Soon, their mom and dad came back to the table. They saw the mess and the empty bottle. They were very angry and shocked. They asked Lily and Ben what they had done. Lily and Ben felt guilty and scared. They did not want to get in trouble. They tried to lie and said they did not know. They said maybe the toys did it.
+
+But their mom and dad did not believe them. They could smell the wine on their breath and see the stains on their clothes. They knew they had been naughty and dishonest. They told them to go to their room and think about what they had done. They said they were very disappointed and sad.
+
+Lily and Ben went to their room and cried. They wished they had not touched the wine. They wished they had not lied. They wished they could say sorry and make their mom and dad happy again. They learned a hard lesson that day. They learned that wine was not for them, and that lying was not good. They hoped their mom and dad would forgive them and love them still.
+Lila liked to guess what was inside the boxes that her mom brought home from the store. She would shake them, feel them, and listen to them. Sometimes she was right, and sometimes she was wrong. But she always had fun.
+
+One day, her mom brought home a big box that was wrapped in purple paper. Lila was very curious. She guessed that it was a toy, or a book, or a dress. She wanted to open it right away, but her mom said no. She said it was a surprise for later.
+
+Lila waited and waited. She tried to be patient, but she was too excited. She sneaked into the living room, where the box was on the table. She looked around. No one was there. She decided to peek inside the box, just a little bit.
+
+She lifted the purple paper carefully. She saw something shiny and white. It looked like a flower, but it was not a real flower. It was made of glass. It was very pretty, but also very delicate. Lila wanted to touch it, but she was afraid to break it.
+
+Suddenly, she heard her mom's voice. "Lila, what are you doing?" Her mom came into the living room and saw the box. She looked angry and sad. "Lila, you spoiled the surprise. This was a gift for your grandma. It was her favorite flower. She loved purple. But now you ruined it. Look, you made a crack in the glass."
+
+Lila felt very bad. She did not mean to hurt the flower or make her mom upset. She started to cry. She said she was sorry. She said she only wanted to guess what was inside the box.
+
+Her mom hugged her and wiped her tears. She said she forgave her. She said she knew she was curious and did not know how delicate the flower was. She said they could still give it to grandma, and maybe she would not notice the crack. She said they could also make her a card and draw some purple flowers on it.
+
+Lila smiled and nodded. She said she loved her mom and her grandma. She said she would not guess what was inside the boxes anymore. She said she would wait for the surprises. She said she learned her lesson. She said she liked purple, but she liked glass flowers more.
+Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a lot of fun on the swings, the slide and the seesaw. They are very lively and happy.
+
+One day, they see a new toy in the park. It is a big red car. It has four wheels, a horn and a seat. Lily and Tom want to try it. They rush to the car and start to fight.
+
+"I saw it first!" Lily says.
+
+"No, I did!" Tom says.
+
+They pull and push each other. They are not nice. They are not friends.
+
+A lady sees them. She is the owner of the car. She is not happy. She walks to them and says:
+
+"Stop fighting, children. This is my car. I brought it here to share with you. But you are not sharing. You are being selfish and rude. You have no style. You have to learn to take turns and be polite. Or you can't play with my car."
+
+Lily and Tom feel ashamed. They know they did wrong. They say sorry to the lady and to each other. They decide to be friends again. They ask the lady if they can play with her car. She says yes, but only if they share and wait for their turn. Lily and Tom agree. They thank the lady and play with her car. They have fun and learn a lesson.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't fight over toys. Share and be polite. That is the style of a good friend.
+Lily and Ben were playing by the lake. They liked to throw pebbles into the water and watch the ripples. Lily found a shiny pebble that looked like a star. She showed it to Ben and said, "Look, I found a star pebble!"
+
+Ben wanted to see the star pebble too. He asked Lily, "Can I hold it?" Lily nodded and gave him the pebble. Ben felt the pebble in his hand. It was smooth and cold. He said, "It is very pretty. Can I throw it into the lake?"
+
+Lily shook her head and said, "No, Ben, don't throw it. It is my star pebble. I want to keep it." Ben frowned and said, "But I want to see how it looks in the water. Please, Lily, let me throw it."
+
+Lily and Ben started to argue. They pulled the pebble from each other. They did not see that the sun was going down and the sky was getting dark. They did not hear their mom calling them to return home. They only cared about the star pebble.
+
+Suddenly, the pebble slipped from their hands and fell into the lake. They heard a splash and saw a flash of light. Then the pebble was gone. Lily and Ben gasped and looked at each other. They felt sad and sorry. They had lost the star pebble and they had hurt each other.
+
+They hugged and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I'm sorry, Ben. I love you." They heard their mom calling them again. They ran to her and said, "Mom, we're sorry. We lost the star pebble. We were fighting." Mom smiled and said, "It's okay, my loves. I'm glad you're safe. Maybe the star pebble will return to you someday. But for now, let's go home. It's dark and cold." Lily and Ben nodded and followed their mom. They held hands and hoped to see the star pebble again.
+Ben and Mia are playing with their toys in the living room. They have a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Ben finds a roll of tape on the table and thinks it is a snake. He wraps it around his arm and says, "Look, Mia, I am a snake! Hiss!"
+
+Mia laughs and says, "That is not a snake, Ben, that is tape. You use tape to stick things together, not to be a snake. Give it to me, I want to play with it."
+
+Ben does not want to give the tape to Mia. He likes to be a snake and he thinks the tape is his. He says, "No, Mia, this is my tape. You have your own toys, go play with them. Leave me alone."
+
+Mia gets angry and tries to grab the tape from Ben. They start to pull and tug on the tape, making it stretch and snap. They do not hear their mom coming into the room. She sees them fighting over the tape and says, "Stop it, both of you! What are you doing with the tape? You are not supposed to play with it, it is for mommy's work. You could hurt yourselves or break something. I am very disappointed in you."
+
+Ben and Mia feel ashamed. They know they did something bad and they made their mom sad. They let go of the tape and say, "Sorry, mom, we did not mean to. We were just playing."
+
+Mom sighs and says, "I know you were just playing, but you have to be careful and respectful with other people's things. Tape is not a toy, it is a tool. You have plenty of toys to play with, you do not need to use the tape. Now, say sorry to each other and put the tape back on the table."
+
+Ben and Mia say sorry to each other and hug. They put the tape back on the table and pick up their toys. They decide to play something else that does not involve tape. They hope their mom will forgive them and be happy again.
+Ben and Lily liked to play pirates. They had a big box that they pretended was a chest full of gold and jewels. They hid the chest under their bed and made a map to find it. They also had a red scarf that they used as a flag and a wooden sword that they used to fight.
+
+One day, they decided to play pirates outside. They took their chest, their map, their flag and their sword and went to the park. They found a big tree that looked like a ship and climbed on it. They waved their flag and shouted "Ahoy, mateys!" They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, a big dog came to the park. It saw the chest and smelled something good inside. It ran to the chest and started to bite it and scratch it. Ben and Lily heard the noise and looked down. They saw the dog and got scared. They tried to yell at the dog to go away, but the dog was deaf. It could not hear them. It only wanted the chest.
+
+Ben and Lily climbed down the tree and ran to the chest. They wanted to save it from the dog. But the dog was faster and stronger. It growled and barked at them and showed its teeth. It did not want to share the chest. It wanted to keep it for itself.
+
+Ben and Lily were very brave. They picked up their sword and tried to scare the dog. But the sword was too small and the dog was too big. The dog bit the sword and broke it. Then it bit Ben and Lily and hurt them. Ben and Lily cried and screamed. They dropped the chest and ran away. The dog was happy. It had the chest all to itself. It opened the chest and ate everything inside. It was not gold and jewels. It was cookies and candy. Ben and Lily's mom had made them for a surprise. But now they were gone. And Ben and Lily were sad and hurt. They had lost their chest and their fun. The end.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with blocks and cars. One day, they see a big box in the yard. They want to make a fort with the box.
+
+"Let's work together and cut the box," Tom says. He finds scissors and gives one to Sam.
+
+"OK, but be careful," Sam says. He starts to cut the box with his scissors.
+
+Tom and Sam work hard and cut the box. They make a door and a window and a roof. They are happy with their fort.
+
+"Look, we made a fort!" Tom says. He goes inside the fort and invites Sam.
+
+"Wow, it's great!" Sam says. He follows Tom inside the fort.
+
+But then, they hear a loud voice. It is Tom's mom. She is angry.
+
+"Tom, Sam, what did you do?" she says. She sees the box and the scissors. The box is not a box. It is a new TV that Tom's dad bought.
+
+"Mom, we made a fort," Tom says. He tries to smile.
+
+"Tom, this is not a fort. This is a TV. A very expensive TV. You ruined it!" she says. She is very mad.
+
+"Mom, we didn't know. We are sorry," Sam says. He is scared.
+
+"Sorry is not enough. You have to tell the truth. Did you ask before you cut the box?" she says.
+
+Tom and Sam look at each other. They are quiet. They did not ask. They know they did something bad.
+
+"Tell me the truth, now!" she says.
+
+Tom and Sam start to cry. They tell the truth. They say they did not ask. They say they were wrong.
+
+Tom's mom is not happy. She says they have to pay for the TV. She says they have to work hard and do chores. She says they have to learn a lesson.
+
+Tom and Sam are sad. They have no fort. They have no TV. They have no fun. They have to work. They have to say sorry. They have to be good.
+
+The end.
+Tommy was a healthy boy who liked to run and play. He had a big dog named Rex who was his best friend. They always had fun together in the park, chasing balls and sticks.
+
+One day, Tommy and Rex saw a big cat in the park. It was black and white and had a long tail. Rex barked and ran after the cat, but the cat was fast and climbed a tree. Rex jumped and tried to reach the cat, but he could not. He growled and scratched the tree.
+
+"Rex, come back!" Tommy called. He was scared of the cat. He thought the cat might hurt Rex or him. He ran to Rex and tried to pull him away from the tree. But Rex was strong and did not listen. He kept barking and jumping.
+
+The cat hissed and spat at Rex. It showed its sharp teeth and claws. It looked angry and mean. Tommy trembled and wished Rex would stop. He did not like the cat. He wished the cat would go away.
+
+Suddenly, the cat jumped down from the tree and landed on Rex's back. It bit Rex's neck and scratched his face. Rex yelped and shook the cat off. He was hurt and bleeding. He ran to Tommy and hid behind him. Tommy hugged Rex and cried.
+
+"Rex, are you okay?" Tommy asked. He was sad and scared. He loved Rex and did not want him to be hurt.
+
+Rex licked Tommy's face and wagged his tail. He was okay. He was brave and strong. He had a healthy lung and a big heart. He loved Tommy and did not want him to be scared.
+
+"Let's go home, Rex," Tommy said. He took Rex's leash and walked away from the park. He did not look at the cat. He did not like the cat. He wished the cat would never come back.
+Lily was anxious. She wanted to see her grandma, but she had to wait. Mom said they had a surprise for grandma, but Lily did not know what it was. She asked mom many times, but mom only smiled and said, "You will see soon."
+
+They got in the car and drove for a long time. Lily looked out the window and saw trees and houses and cars. She saw a big sign that said, "Welcome to Sunnyvale". She knew that was where grandma lived. She clapped her hands and said, "We are almost there!"
+
+Mom parked the car in front of a yellow house. Lily saw grandma on the porch, waving at them. Lily jumped out of the car and ran to hug grandma. Grandma hugged her back and said, "I'm so happy to see you, Lily!"
+
+Mom came with a big box. She said, "Grandma, we have a surprise for you. Lily helped me pick it out." She opened the box and took out a fluffy white cat. The cat meowed and licked mom's hand. Mom said, "This is Snowy. He is your new friend. He needs a home and a lot of love."
+
+Grandma gasped and smiled. She said, "Oh, what a wonderful surprise! Thank you, Lily and mom! I always wanted a cat, but I was lonely and afraid to get one. Now I have Snowy and you to keep me company. Come on, let's go inside and play with him." She took the cat and led them into the house.
+
+Lily was not anxious anymore. She was happy. She loved grandma and Snowy. She thought they were the best surprise ever.
+Tom and Lily were playing on the beach. They liked to dig in the sand and find shells and stones. They saw a big metal thing in the sand. It looked like a hook with a rope.
+
+"What is that?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a toy," Lily said.
+
+They pulled the rope and the metal thing came out. It was very heavy.
+
+"It is not a toy. It is an anchor," Tom said. He had seen an anchor on a boat before.
+
+"An anchor? What is an anchor for?" Lily questioned.
+
+"An anchor is for holding a boat in the water. It stops the boat from moving away," Tom explained.
+
+"Wow, that is cool. Can we play with it?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, why not. Let's pretend we have a boat and we are sailors," Tom said.
+
+They dragged the anchor to the water and tied the rope to a stick. They pretended the stick was their boat and they sailed on the water. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then a man came and shouted at them.
+
+"Hey, kids, what are you doing with my anchor? That is not a toy. That is a real anchor. Give it back to me," the man said.
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They did not know the anchor belonged to someone.
+
+"Sorry, mister, we did not know. We thought it was a fake anchor. We were just playing," Tom said.
+
+The man was angry. He took the anchor and the rope and walked away.
+
+Tom and Lily felt sad. They liked the anchor. They thought it was a fake anchor. They did not mean to make the man mad.
+
+They went back to the sand and played with their shells and stones. They hoped the man would not be mad at them anymore. They learned a new word: anchor.
+Lily and Sam were playing in the park. They liked to observe the birds and the flowers. They saw a big bird with red and yellow feathers. It was sitting on a branch.
+
+"Wow, look at that bird!" Lily said. "It has pretty clothes."
+
+Sam nodded. He wanted to see the bird closer. He took a step towards the tree.
+
+"Be careful, Sam," Lily said. "The bird might be scared of you."
+
+Sam stopped. He did not want to scare the bird. He waved his hand and said, "Hello, bird. We are friendly. We just want to look at you."
+
+The bird tilted its head and looked at Sam and Lily. It made a loud noise. It sounded like a laugh.
+
+"Did the bird laugh at us?" Sam asked.
+
+Lily giggled. She thought the bird was funny. She said, "Maybe the bird likes us. Maybe it wants to be our friend."
+
+Sam smiled. He said, "Maybe you are right, Lily. Maybe we can be friends with the bird."
+
+They sat down on the grass and watched the bird. The bird watched them back. They had a good time in the park.
+Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big tree with green and yellow fruits. They are pears. Ben and Lily want to eat some pears.
+
+"Can we pick some pears?" Ben asks Lily.
+
+"Yes, but we have to be smart," Lily says. "The tree is very high. We need a stick or a ladder."
+
+They look around and find a long stick. Ben holds the stick and tries to reach the pears. He pushes and pulls, but the stick is too short. He cannot get any pears.
+
+"Let me try," Lily says. She takes the stick and looks at the tree. She sees a low branch with a big pear. She aims the stick at the branch and hits it hard. The pear falls to the ground.
+
+"Good job, Lily!" Ben says. "You are very smart."
+
+They run to the pear and share it. It is sweet and juicy. They smile and enjoy their snack. They are happy.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But today, they have to pack. Mom and Dad say they are moving to a new house in the east. Tom and Lily do not want to move. They like their old house and their friends.
+
+"Tom, pack your cars and trains in this box," Mom says. "Lily, pack your dolls and puzzles in this box."
+
+Tom and Lily start to pack, but they are not happy. They pack very slowly and make sad faces.
+
+"Mom, why do we have to move?" Tom asks. "I like our old house. It has a big yard and a swing."
+
+"Mom, why do we have to move?" Lily asks. "I like our old house. It has a pink room and a window."
+
+Mom hugs Tom and Lily. She says, "I know you like our old house, but we have to move. Dad has a new job in the east. It is a rare chance for him. He will help many people there. And we will have a new house, too. It will have a bigger yard and a slide. And a blue room and a window for you, Lily. And a green room and a window for you, Tom. And you will make new friends, too. I promise."
+
+Tom and Lily look at Mom. They are still sad, but they try to be brave. They say, "OK, Mom. We will pack. But we will miss our old house and our friends."
+
+Mom smiles and says, "I know, my loves. I will miss them, too. But we will keep them in our hearts. And we will visit them sometimes. And we will call them and write to them. And we will have new adventures in the east. Are you ready?"
+
+Tom and Lily nod and say, "Yes, Mom. We are ready."
+
+They finish packing their boxes and put them in the car. They hug their old house and their friends goodbye. They get in the car and wave. They are going to the east. They are moving to a new house. They are a little scared, but they are also a little excited. They are together. They are a family.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But they are stubborn. They do not like to share or listen to Mom and Dad.
+
+One day, Mom and Dad tell them to pack their bags. They are going to visit Grandma and Grandpa. Grandma and Grandpa live far away, on a big island. Sara and Ben do not want to go. They want to stay home and play.
+
+They say no to Mom and Dad. They hide their bags. They cry and scream. They make a big mess. Mom and Dad are sad and angry. They say Sara and Ben are naughty. They say they have to go, or they will miss the plane.
+
+Sara and Ben do not care. They are stubborn. They run away from Mom and Dad. They hide in the closet. They think they are smart.
+
+But they are not smart. They are in danger. While they are in the closet, something bad happens. The ground shakes. The walls crack. The roof falls. It is an earthquake. It is a big and scary earthquake. It sends rocks and dust and fire everywhere.
+
+Mom and Dad are outside. They are looking for Sara and Ben. They are scared and worried. They call their names. They do not hear them. They do not see them. They do not find them.
+
+Sara and Ben are in the closet. They are trapped. They are hurt. They are scared. They cry and scream. They want Mom and Dad. They want to go to Grandma and Grandpa. They want to say sorry. But it is too late. No one can hear them. No one can see them. No one can find them.
+
+The earthquake is bad. It is very bad. It ends Sara and Ben's lives. It is a bad ending.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. One day, they go to the mall with Mom and Dad. They see many things at the mall. They see clothes, shoes, toys, books, and food.
+
+"Can we buy a toy, Mom?" Anna asks.
+
+"Can we buy a book, Dad?" Ben asks.
+
+Mom and Dad smile. They say, "Yes, you can each choose one thing to buy. But first, we need to go to the bathroom."
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They follow Mom and Dad to the bathroom. They wait in line. Anna and Ben are good. They do not run or shout. They use the bathroom and wash their hands.
+
+"Are you ready to buy your toy and book?" Mom asks.
+
+"Yes, we are!" Anna and Ben say.
+
+They go to the toy store. Anna sees a doll. She likes the doll. She says, "I want to buy this doll, Mom."
+
+Mom says, "Okay, that's a fine doll. Let's go to the cashier."
+
+They go to the book store. Ben sees a book. He likes the book. He says, "I want to buy this book, Dad."
+
+Dad says, "Okay, that's a fine book. Let's go to the cashier."
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They hug Mom and Dad. They say, "Thank you for buying us a toy and a book. We love you!"
+
+Mom and Dad are happy too. They say, "You're welcome. We love you too!"
+Anna was a young girl who loved pasta. She liked to eat it with cheese and sauce and sometimes with meatballs. She always asked her mom to make pasta for dinner.
+
+One day, Anna and her mom went to the store to buy some pasta. But when they got there, they saw that there was no pasta left on the shelf. Anna was very sad and angry. She wanted pasta so much.
+
+"Mom, where is the pasta?" Anna asked. "I want pasta for dinner!"
+
+"I'm sorry, Anna, but there is no pasta here. Maybe they ran out of it. We can look for something else to eat, okay?" her mom said.
+
+But Anna did not want something else. She only wanted pasta. She started to cry and stomp her feet. She urged her mom to find pasta somewhere else.
+
+"Please, mom, please! Let's go to another store! Let's find pasta! I need pasta!" Anna said.
+
+Her mom tried to calm her down. She hugged her and said, "Anna, I know you love pasta, but sometimes we can't have what we want. We have to be flexible and try new things. How about we get some rice or noodles or bread instead? They are also yummy and good for you."
+
+Anna sniffed and looked at her mom. She saw that her mom was not angry, but kind and patient. She felt a little bit better. She wiped her tears and said, "Okay, mom. I guess we can try something else. But can we have pasta tomorrow?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "Of course, Anna. If we find some pasta tomorrow, we can have it for dinner. But for now, let's see what else we can find. Maybe we can make a fun and tasty dish with what we have."
+
+Anna nodded and took her mom's hand. They walked to another aisle and looked for something else to eat. Anna still loved pasta, but she also wanted to make her mom happy. She decided to be brave and try new things. She hoped they would find some pasta soon.
+Lily loved to read books. She liked to learn new words and what they meant. She had a big book with many words and pictures. It was called a dictionary. She borrowed it from the library.
+
+One day, she was reading the dictionary in her room. She heard a knock on the door. It was her friend Tom. He wanted to play with her.
+
+"Hi, Lily. Can I come in?" Tom asked.
+
+"Hi, Tom. Sure, you can come in. But I am reading a book. It is very interesting," Lily said.
+
+"What book is it?" Tom asked.
+
+"It is a dictionary. It has many words and pictures. Look, this is a word I learned today. It is famous. It means many people know it or like it," Lily said. She showed Tom the word and the picture of a movie star.
+
+"Wow, that is a cool word. Can I read the dictionary with you?" Tom asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. But we have to be careful. It is not my book. I borrowed it from the library. I have to return it soon," Lily said.
+
+"OK, I understand. We can read it together and then return it. Maybe we can find more famous words," Tom said.
+
+They smiled and opened the dictionary. They had fun reading and learning new words. They were happy friends.
+Anna was very excited for her birthday. She wanted to have a big cake, a lot of balloons, and many friends to play with. She asked her mom to help her make invitations for her party.
+
+"Mom, can I have a big cake with pink frosting and sprinkles?" Anna asked.
+
+"Of course, my dear. You can have whatever you want for your birthday," Mom said.
+
+"Can I have a lot of balloons, too? And a clown, and a pony, and a magic show?" Anna asked.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Well, we'll see what we can do. But first, we need to make the invitations and send them to your friends. Do you want to help me?"
+
+Anna nodded and followed Mom to the table. Mom gave her some paper, crayons, and stickers. Anna started to draw and write on the paper. She wrote her name, the date, the time, and the place of her party. She also drew a big cake, a lot of balloons, and a happy face. She put a sticker on each invitation. She was very proud of her work.
+
+"Mom, look! I made the invitations!" Anna said.
+
+"Wow, they look wonderful, Anna. You did a great job. Now, let's put them in envelopes and close them. Then we can go to the post office and mail them," Mom said.
+
+Anna helped Mom put the invitations in envelopes and close them. She put a stamp on each envelope. She was very happy. She couldn't wait for her party.
+
+"Mom, can we go to the post office now?" Anna asked.
+
+"Yes, let's go. Grab your coat and your shoes. We'll be back soon," Mom said.
+
+Anna put on her coat and her shoes. She followed Mom to the car. She held the invitations in her hands. She was very excited.
+
+But when they got to the car, they saw something bad. The car had a flat tire. Mom looked at the tire and sighed.
+
+"Oh no, Anna. The car has a flat tire. We can't go to the post office today. We have to call Dad and ask him to come and fix it," Mom said.
+
+Anna felt very sad. She wanted to mail her invitations today. She wanted her friends to come to her party. She didn't want to wait.
+
+"But Mom, what about my party? What if my friends don't get the invitations? What if they don't come?" Anna asked.
+
+Mom hugged Anna and said, "Don't worry, Anna. We'll mail the invitations tomorrow. Your friends will get them in time. They will come to your party. Everything will be okay."
+
+Anna tried to believe Mom, but she felt very frustrated. She didn't want to wait. She wanted to mail her invitations today. She wanted to have her party. She wanted to have fun.
+
+She started to cry. She threw the invitations on the ground. She stomped her feet. She yelled, "I don't want to wait! I want to mail my invitations now! I want to have my party now! It's not fair!"
+
+Mom tried to calm Anna down, but Anna didn't listen. She kept crying and yelling. She didn't care about the flat tire. She didn't care about Mom. She only cared about her party.
+
+She was very selfish and rude. She made Mom very sad and angry. She ruined her birthday. She had no friends. She had no fun. She had no cake. She had no balloons. She had no party.
+
+She had a bad ending.
+Tom likes to look at the big band. They make loud and fun sounds with their drums, guitars and trumpets. Tom wants to play a trumpet too. He thinks it is the best thing ever.
+
+One day, Tom finds a trumpet in his dad's closet. He is very happy. He takes the trumpet and tries to blow it. But nothing happens. He blows harder and harder, but still no sound. He feels sad and angry.
+
+Then he hears a knock on the door. It is his friend Lily. She is helpful and kind. She sees Tom with the trumpet and asks him what is wrong. Tom tells her he can't make the trumpet work. Lily smiles and says she can help.
+
+She shows Tom how to hold the trumpet and how to put his lips on the mouthpiece. She tells him to blow gently and steadily, not too hard or too soft. She says he has to make a buzzing sound with his lips, like a bee.
+
+Tom follows Lily's advice and tries again. This time, he hears a sound. It is not very loud or clear, but it is a sound. He feels happy and proud. He thanks Lily for her help. They take turns playing the trumpet and making music. They have a lot of fun. Tom thinks Lily is the best friend ever.
+Tom and Lily were playing with a big red ball in the living room. They liked to bounce the ball and catch it. Sometimes they bounced it very high and it hit the ceiling. They laughed when that happened.
+
+But one time, the ball bounced too high and too hard. It hit the lamp that was hanging from the ceiling. The lamp made a loud noise and fell down. It broke into many pieces on the floor. Tom and Lily were scared and stopped playing.
+
+"Uh-oh," Tom said. "We broke the lamp. Mom will be mad."
+
+Lily nodded. She looked at the lamp. It was weird. It had wires and bulbs and glass. She did not know what it was for. She wondered why it was hanging from the ceiling.
+
+"Maybe we can fix it," Tom said. He picked up a piece of the lamp and tried to put it back together. But it did not work. The piece was sharp and it cut his finger. He cried out in pain.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom said. "It hurts!"
+
+Lily ran to him and hugged him. She saw the blood on his finger. She was worried.
+
+"Let me see," she said. She took his finger and blew on it. She thought that would make it better. She kissed it gently.
+
+"Does it feel better?" she asked.
+
+Tom nodded. He smiled at her. He felt better. He hugged her back.
+
+"Thank you, Lily," he said. "You are a good sister."
+
+They heard the door open. Mom was home. They looked at each other. They knew they had to tell her what happened. They hoped she would not be too mad. They held hands and walked to the door. They said together:
+
+"Mom, we have something to tell you."
+Anna was a good girl who liked to play with her dolls and her books. She always listened to her mom and dad and did what they said. But one day, she saw a shiny thing in her mom's room. It was a necklace with a fairy on it. Anna wanted to see it better, so she took it from the drawer and put it around her neck.
+
+She felt very pretty with the fairy necklace. She went to the mirror and smiled. She pretended she was a fairy too, and flew around the room. She did not hear her mom calling her for lunch. She did not see her mom coming into the room. She only saw her mom's angry face when she saw the necklace.
+
+"Anna, what are you doing with my necklace?" her mom asked in a loud voice. "That is not yours, that is mine. You did not ask me if you could take it. You are very naughty. You must give it back to me right now."
+
+Anna felt scared and sad. She did not want to give back the necklace. She liked it too much. She wanted to keep it. She said, "No, mom, it is mine. I am a fairy. I want the fairy necklace."
+
+Her mom was very upset. She took the necklace from Anna's neck and said, "No, Anna, it is not yours. It is mine. You are not a fairy. You are a girl. And you are a bad girl. You must punish for taking my necklace. You must go to your room and stay there until I say you can come out. No toys, no books, no dolls. Only your bed. Go now."
+
+Anna cried and cried. She did not want to go to her room. She did not want to punish. She did not want to lose the fairy necklace. She said, "I am sorry, mom, I am sorry. Please do not punish me. Please let me have the fairy necklace. Please, please, please."
+
+But her mom did not listen. She said, "No, Anna, you must learn your lesson. You must not take things that are not yours. You must respect me and my things. You must go to your room and think about what you did. Maybe later, if you are good, I will let you see the fairy necklace again. But not now. Now you must punish. Go."
+
+Anna had no choice. She went to her room and lay on her bed. She felt very sorry and very sad. She wished she had not taken the fairy necklace. She wished she had listened to her mom. She wished she had a real fairy to make her feel better. She closed her eyes and hoped for a fairy to come. But no fairy came. Only her mom, after a long time, came to see if she was sorry. And she was. She said, "I am sorry, mom, I am sorry. I will not take your necklace again. I will be a good girl. I love you, mom."
+
+Her mom hugged her and said, "I love you too, Anna. I forgive you. You can come out of your room now. But you must promise me to never take my things without asking me. And you must remember that you are not a fairy. You are a girl. A very special girl. And I am proud of you."
+
+Anna smiled and said, "I promise, mom, I promise. And I know I am not a fairy. I am a girl. A very happy girl. And I am proud of you too."
+Lila and Tom are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. But their favorite thing is to roll on the big bed.
+
+One day, they are rolling on the bed. They are laughing and having fun. They roll from one side to the other. They pretend they are rockets in space.
+
+"Zoom, zoom, zoom!" says Lila. "We are going to the moon!"
+
+"Beep, beep, beep!" says Tom. "We are landing on the moon!"
+
+They jump on the bed and pretend to walk on the moon. They see stars and planets. They are happy.
+
+But soon, they start to feel sleepy. Rolling and jumping is hard work. They yawn and rub their eyes.
+
+"Can we sleep on the moon?" asks Lila.
+
+"Sure, why not?" says Tom.
+
+They lie down on the bed and pull the blanket over them. They cuddle and close their eyes. They dream of space and rockets.
+
+The end.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to decorate things. They had a big box of stickers, crayons, glitter and paper. One day, they decided to decorate their kitchen. They asked their mom if they could do it.
+
+"Sure, you can decorate the kitchen, but be careful and don't make a mess," their mom said. She gave them a teaspoon each and said, "You can use this to scoop some glitter and sprinkle it on your paper. But don't put it in your mouth or on the floor."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and took the teaspoons. They went to the kitchen and found a big sheet of paper. They put it on the table and started to draw and stick things on it. They wanted to make a picture of their family.
+
+Lily drew a circle for her head and a smaller circle for her nose. She stuck two blue stickers for her eyes and a red sticker for her mouth. She drew some hair with a yellow crayon. She said, "This is me. I am pretty."
+
+Ben drew a circle for his head and a smaller circle for his nose. He stuck two green stickers for his eyes and a brown sticker for his mouth. He drew some hair with a black crayon. He said, "This is me. I am intelligent."
+
+They drew their mom, their dad, their dog and their cat. They used different colors and stickers to make them look different. They scooped some glitter with their teaspoons and sprinkled it on their paper. They said, "This is our family. We are happy."
+
+Their mom came to see their picture. She smiled and said, "Wow, you did a great job. You are very creative and clever. You decorated the kitchen very well."
+
+Lily and Ben hugged their mom and said, "Thank you, mom. We love you."
+
+Their mom said, "I love you too. Now, let's clean up the glitter and put the paper on the fridge."
+Jenny was a spoiled child. She always wanted to have everything her way. She did not like to share her toys, or to help her mom and dad, or to listen to her teacher. She only liked to play and watch TV and eat candy.
+
+One day, Jenny's mom and dad had to go to work. They asked Grandma to come and stay with Jenny. Grandma was very kind and patient, but she also had some rules. She told Jenny to eat her breakfast, to brush her teeth, to tidy her room, and to do some homework.
+
+But Jenny did not want to do any of that. She said, "No, no, no! I don't want to do that! I want to play and watch TV and eat candy! You are not my mom and dad! You can't tell me what to do!"
+
+Grandma sighed and said, "Jenny, you are a very spoiled child. You need to learn to be polite and respectful and responsible. If you don't do what I ask you, you will have to stay in your room for the rest of the day. Do you understand?"
+
+Jenny did not understand. She thought Grandma was mean and unfair. She threw a tantrum and kicked and screamed and cried. Grandma was very sad and disappointed. She took Jenny to her room and closed the door. She said, "Jenny, you can stay here until you calm down and say sorry. I hope you will think about your behavior and change your attitude."
+
+Jenny stayed in her room for a long time. She was angry and bored and lonely. She did not have any toys, or TV, or candy. She only had her bed and her books and her homework. She realized that she had been very rude and selfish to Grandma. She felt sorry and ashamed. She wished she had been nicer and more obedient.
+
+She decided to knock on the door and say sorry to Grandma. She hoped Grandma would forgive her and hug her and play with her. She learned that being spoiled was not fun or good. She learned that being good was better and happier.
+Lily and Ben wanted to bake a cake for Mom's birthday. They found a big bowl, some eggs, some flour, some sugar, and some butter in the kitchen. They mixed everything together and poured it into a pan. Then they put the pan in the oven and turned it on.
+
+"Mom will be so happy when she sees our cake!" Lily said.
+
+"Yes, she will love it!" Ben said.
+
+They waited and waited for the cake to be done. They smelled something yummy and sweet. They opened the oven and saw a big, fat, brown cake. They were very proud of their work.
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. It was Mom coming home. They forgot to clean up the mess they made in the kitchen. There were eggshells, flour, sugar, and butter everywhere.
+
+"Oh no, Mom will be mad at us!" Lily said.
+
+"Quick, hide the cake!" Ben said.
+
+They grabbed the pan and ran to their room. But the pan was very hot. They dropped it on the floor. The cake broke into pieces. They felt a big shock and pain in their hands.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" they cried.
+
+Mom heard their cries and came to their room. She saw the broken cake and the burned pan. She also saw their dirty faces and clothes. She was very surprised and angry.
+
+"What have you done?" she asked.
+
+"We wanted to bake you a cake, Mom. We're sorry, Mom. We love you, Mom." Lily and Ben said.
+
+Mom looked at them and sighed. She was still angry, but she also felt sorry for them. She hugged them and kissed their hands.
+
+"Thank you for trying to bake me a cake, my sweeties. I love you too. But next time, please ask me first. And be careful with the oven. It's very dangerous." she said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They learned their lesson. They also learned that baking a cake is not as easy as it looks.
+Lily likes to watch the snow fall from her window. She likes to see the white flakes cover the ground and the trees. She likes to make snowmen and snow angels with her brother Tom. Winter is her favorite time of the year.
+
+But one day, the snow stops falling. The sun comes out and makes the snow melt. Lily sees the water drip from the roof and the snowmen lose their noses and hats. She sees the grass and the dirt show up again. She feels sad. She does not want winter to end.
+
+She asks her mom, "Why does the snow go away? Can we make it stay?"
+
+Her mom hugs her and says, "Snow is a gift from nature. It comes and goes with the seasons. We cannot make it stay, but we can enjoy it while it lasts. And we can look forward to it again next year."
+
+Lily nods, but she still feels sad. She misses the snow and the fun she had with Tom. She wishes winter would last longer.
+
+She goes to her room and finds her favorite book. It is a book about winter and snow. She opens it and looks at the pictures. She sees snowflakes and snowmen and snow angels. She sees children playing and laughing in the snow. She smiles. She remembers the good times she had with Tom. She feels a little better.
+
+She decides to make a snowflake with paper and scissors. She cuts and folds and snips the paper. She makes a beautiful snowflake. She hangs it on her window. She watches it sparkle in the sun. She thinks, "Maybe winter is not gone. Maybe it is still here, in my heart."
+Sara and Ben like to play with blocks. They make towers and bridges and houses with the blocks. They have many colors of blocks: red, blue, yellow, green, and more.
+
+One day, they hear a knock on the door. It is their friend Tom. Tom wants to play with them. He sees the blocks and says, "Can I join you?"
+
+Sara and Ben say, "Yes, of course. We are making patterns with the blocks. See, this is a red-blue-red-blue pattern. And this is a yellow-green-yellow-green pattern. Do you want to make a pattern too?"
+
+Tom says, "Yes, I do. But I have a better idea. Let's make a foolish pattern. A foolish pattern is when you mix all the colors and make a mess. It is more fun than a boring pattern. Watch me!"
+
+Tom grabs some blocks and throws them on the floor. He laughs and says, "Look, this is a foolish pattern. Ha ha ha!"
+
+Sara and Ben are not happy. They do not like Tom's idea. They say, "Tom, stop it. You are ruining our patterns. We worked hard to make them. They are not boring. They are pretty and neat. You are being foolish and rude. Go away!"
+
+Tom does not listen. He keeps throwing blocks and making noise. He says, "You are silly. You do not know how to play. Foolish patterns are the best. You are missing out."
+
+Sara and Ben are angry. They do not want to play with Tom anymore. They pick up their blocks and go to another room. They close the door and lock it. They say, "Bye, Tom. We do not want to be your friends. You are not nice. You are a foolish boy."
+
+Tom is surprised. He does not understand why Sara and Ben are mad at him. He thinks he was just having fun. He says, "Hey, wait. Come back. Let me play with you. I was just joking. Don't be mean."
+
+But Sara and Ben do not hear him. They do not care. They are happy to play with their patterns without Tom. They say, "We like our patterns. They are not foolish. They are smart and beautiful. We are good friends. We do not need Tom."
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big field covered with snow. They put on their coats, hats, scarves and boots and ran to the field.
+
+"Let's make a snowman!" Lily said.
+
+"OK, but I want to make the head!" Tom said.
+
+They rolled big balls of snow and stacked them on top of each other. They found a carrot, some stones and a hat to make the snowman's face and clothes. They were very proud of their snowman.
+
+"Look, he's smiling!" Lily said.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud shout from behind them. They turned around and saw a big dog running towards them. The dog was barking and wagging its tail. It looked friendly, but it was also very fast and strong.
+
+"Uh-oh, watch out!" Tom said.
+
+The dog jumped on the snowman and knocked it down. The snowman's head rolled away and the carrot, stones and hat flew in the air. The dog started to chase the snowman's head, thinking it was a toy.
+
+"Hey, stop that!" Lily said. "That's our snowman!"
+
+But the dog did not listen. It ran after the snowman's head, leaving a trail of paw prints in the snow. Lily and Tom followed the dog, trying to get their snowman back.
+
+They ran and ran, but the dog was faster. The snowman's head got smaller and smaller as the dog bit and licked it. Lily and Tom felt sad and angry. They wanted their snowman back.
+
+They reached the end of the field, where there was a fence and a road. The dog stopped and dropped the snowman's head. It was almost gone, only a tiny ball of snow with a carrot sticking out. The dog looked at Lily and Tom and wagged its tail again. It seemed to say, "That was fun, let's play some more!"
+
+Lily and Tom did not think it was fun. They looked at their ruined snowman and felt like crying. They did not want to play with the dog anymore. They wanted to go home.
+
+They picked up the snowman's head and the hat and walked back to the field. They did not say anything. They were too upset.
+
+The dog followed them, still barking and wagging its tail. It did not understand why they were not happy. It thought they were playing a game.
+
+The dog jumped on them and tried to lick their faces. It wanted to be their friend.
+
+"Go away!" Lily and Tom shouted. "You're a bad dog! You broke our snowman!"
+
+The dog looked confused and sad. It did not mean to break their snowman. It just wanted to have fun.
+
+But Lily and Tom did not care. They pushed the dog away and ran to their house. They slammed the door behind them and left the dog outside.
+
+The dog sat on the icy field and whimpered. It was cold and lonely. It wished it had a snowman to play with.
+Tom liked to polish his shapes. He had many shapes: a ball, a cube, a star, a heart, and more. He used a cloth and some water to make them shiny and clean. He put them on his shelf and looked at them with a smile.
+
+One day, he saw a new shape in his toy box. It was a triangle. It was yellow and had three sides. Tom had never seen a triangle before. He wanted to polish it and put it on his shelf. He took the cloth and the water and started to rub the triangle.
+
+"Ouch!" he cried. The triangle had a sharp point. It poked his finger and made it bleed. Tom dropped the triangle and ran to his mom. "Mom, mom, the triangle hurt me!" he sobbed.
+
+Mom hugged him and looked at his finger. She put a band-aid on it and kissed it. "I'm sorry, Tom. The triangle is not a good shape to polish. It has a point that can hurt you. You have to be careful with it."
+
+Tom nodded. He felt better. He went back to his toy box and picked up the triangle. He looked at it and said, "Sorry, triangle. I didn't know you were not easy to polish. You are still a nice shape. But I will not rub you anymore. I will just put you on my shelf and look at you." He did that and smiled. He liked his shapes. They were all different and shiny. He learned something new today.
+Tom had a big net. He liked to catch bugs with his net. He caught bees, flies, ants, and butterflies. He put them in jars and gave them names. He was very proud of his bugs.
+
+One day, a man came to his house. He had a lot of toys in his car. He said he wanted to sell toys to Tom. He showed Tom a train, a ball, a doll, and a car. Tom liked the toys. He wanted to have them.
+
+The man said, "I will give you these toys if you give me your net and your bugs. They are very rare and mighty. I can sell them for a lot of money." Tom thought for a moment. He liked his net and his bugs. But he also liked the toys. He did not know what to do.
+
+He asked his mom for help. His mom said, "Tom, it is your choice. But remember, your net and your bugs are your friends. They make you happy. The toys are just things. They might break or get lost. You have to decide what is more important to you."
+
+Tom thought some more. He looked at his net and his bugs. He looked at the toys. He made his choice. He said to the man, "No, thank you. I do not want to sell my net and my bugs. They are my friends. I do not need the toys. You can keep them." He hugged his net and his bugs. He was happy.
+
+The man was angry. He said, "Fine. You are a silly boy. You do not know what is good for you. I will find someone else who will sell me their net and their bugs." He drove away in his car.
+
+Tom and his mom smiled. They went inside the house. They played with the net and the bugs. They had fun. They did not need the toys. They had each other. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and look for bugs. They had a big shovel and a small bucket.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a mole!" Tom said. He lifted a furry brown animal from the hole. It had a long nose and tiny eyes.
+
+"Wow, Tom, it is so cute!" Lily said. She wanted to touch the mole. "Can I hold it?"
+
+"Okay, but be gentle," Tom said. He gave the mole to Lily. She stroked its soft fur and smiled.
+
+The mole was scared. It did not like to be out of the ground. It wanted to hide. It wriggled in Lily's hand and jumped out. It ran towards another hole.
+
+"Hey, come back!" Tom shouted. He and Lily chased the mole. They were excited. They wanted to catch it again.
+
+But the mole was fast. It reached the hole and dived in. It was safe. It could hide.
+
+Tom and Lily stopped. They were sad. They liked the mole.
+
+"Maybe we can find another one," Tom said.
+
+"Or maybe we can play something else," Lily said.
+
+They looked at each other and nodded. They put the shovel and the bucket away. They went to the swing and the slide. They had fun. They forgot about the mole.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a map on a bench. The map has pictures of trees, flowers, birds and a big X.
+
+"Look, a map!" Tom says. "Maybe it is a treasure map!"
+
+"Wow, let's follow it!" Mia says. "Maybe we can find gold or candy!"
+
+They hold the map and walk around the park. They look for the trees, flowers, birds and the big X. They have fun and laugh.
+
+After a while, they see a big X on the ground. It is made of sticks and stones.
+
+"We found it!" Tom says. "This is where the treasure is!"
+
+They dig with their hands and find a box. They open the box and see a cake. The cake has frosting and sprinkles.
+
+"Yay, a cake!" Mia says. "This is the best treasure ever!"
+
+They take a bite of the cake. But the cake does not taste good. It tastes like dirt and soap.
+
+"Yuck, this cake is bad!" Tom says. "Who made this cake?"
+
+They look at the map again. They see a note on the back. The note says:
+
+"Ha ha, this is a silly joke. I made this cake for you. It is not a real cake. It is a fake cake. Do you like it? From, Sam."
+
+Sam is Tom's big brother. He likes to play tricks on Tom and Mia.
+
+"Sam!" Tom says. "He is so mean and silly! He made this fake cake for us!"
+
+They throw the cake and the map away. They are angry and sad.
+
+"Let's go home," Mia says. "We don't want to play with Sam anymore."
+
+They leave the park and go home. They decide to make their own cake. A real cake. A cake that tastes good. They are friends again.
+Tom was a boy who liked to imagine. He imagined he was a superhero, a pirate, a dinosaur. He imagined he could fly, swim, roar. He had fun with his toys and his books and his friends.
+
+But sometimes, Tom imagined scary things. He imagined monsters, ghosts, robbers. He imagined they came to his room at night, when it was dark and quiet. He imagined they wanted to hurt him, take him away, eat him. He had nightmares with his eyes closed and his heart fast.
+
+One night, Tom heard a noise outside his window. He imagined it was a big, gray wolf. He imagined it had sharp teeth, red eyes, a loud howl. He imagined it could break the glass, jump on his bed, bite his neck. He was very afraid and he screamed.
+
+His mom and dad came to his room. They turned on the light and hugged him. They told him there was no wolf, only a dog. They told him it was a friendly dog, who lived next door. They told him it was barking because it was lonely, not angry. They told him he could meet the dog tomorrow, if he wanted.
+
+But Tom did not want to meet the dog. He did not want to imagine anymore. He wanted to forget his nightmares and his fears. He wanted to sleep with the light on and his parents close. He learned that imagining can be fun, but also dangerous. He learned that he should not imagine things that are not true, or he might miss the things that are.
+Sam was a brown bear who loved to swim. He swam in the big lake every day, splashing and diving and having fun. He had many friends who swam with him, like the ducks, the fish and the frogs. They all liked Sam and played with him.
+
+One day, a new bear came to the lake. He was big and black and mean. He saw Sam swimming and said, "Hey, you! Get out of the water! This is my lake now! You don't belong here!"
+
+Sam was scared and sad. He did not want to leave his friends and his lake. He said, "But I have always swum here. This is my home. Why can't we share the lake?"
+
+The black bear growled and said, "No! I don't share with anyone! I am the strongest and the best! You are a weak and silly brown bear who can't do anything! Go away or I will hurt you!"
+
+Sam did not know what to do. He did not want to fight, but he did not want to lose his lake. He looked around and saw his friends watching him. They looked worried and angry. They wanted to help Sam, but they were afraid of the black bear.
+
+Then, Sam had an idea. He remembered something his mother had taught him. He said, "Okay, I will go away, but only if you can do something better than me. Can you swim as fast as me?"
+
+The black bear laughed and said, "Of course I can! I can do anything better than you! You are a joke!"
+
+Sam said, "Then let's have a race. From here to that big rock and back. The winner can stay in the lake, and the loser has to leave. Do you agree?"
+
+The black bear agreed. He was sure he would win. He did not know that Sam had a trick up his sleeve. He did not know that the big rock was the home of the beavers, who were Sam's friends too.
+
+Sam and the black bear got ready to swim. The ducks, the fish and the frogs cheered for Sam. The black bear snorted and said, "You are wasting your time. I will beat you easily!"
+
+Sam said, "We'll see about that. On your mark, get set, go!"
+
+Sam and the black bear swam as fast as they could. Sam was ahead, but the black bear was close behind. They reached the big rock and turned around. But as they did, the beavers came out of their hole and bit the black bear's tail. The black bear yelped and stopped swimming. He was in pain and angry. He tried to shake off the beavers, but they held on tight.
+
+Sam saw what happened and smiled. He swam back to the shore and won the race. He said, "I did it! I won! You have to leave now!"
+
+The black bear was ashamed and furious. He said, "No fair! You cheated! You had help from the beavers!"
+
+Sam said, "No, I didn't cheat. I used my brain and my friends. You see, the lake belongs to everyone who lives here and cares for it. You don't belong here because you are mean and selfish. You don't have any friends. You only have enemies. You should learn to be nice and share, or you will always be alone and unhappy."
+
+The black bear realized that Sam was right. He felt sorry for himself and for what he had done. He said, "You are right. I was wrong. I'm sorry. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Sam said, "Yes, I can forgive you. But you have to promise to be nice and share from now on. And you have to apologize to the beavers and the others too."
+
+The black bear agreed. He apologized to the beavers and the others. He asked them if he could swim with them and be their friend. They said yes, but only if he was nice and shared. The black bear said he would. He thanked Sam for teaching him a lesson.
+
+Sam was happy. He had saved his lake and his friends. He had also made a new friend. He said, "You're welcome. I'm glad you learned your lesson. Come on, let's swim and have fun!"
+
+Sam and the black bear swam and had fun. The ducks, the fish and the frogs joined them. They all played and laughed and enjoyed the lake. They all belonged there. They were all happy.
+Tom likes to play guitar. He has a big guitar that his dad gave him. He likes to make songs with his guitar. He plays every day in his room.
+
+One day, Tom hears a knock on his door. He opens it and sees his friend Anna. Anna has a small guitar that her mom gave her. She says, "Hi, Tom. Can I play with you?"
+
+Tom says, "Sure, Anna. Come in. Do you know how to play guitar?"
+
+Anna says, "No, not really. I only know how to hold it. Can you teach me?"
+
+Tom says, "Of course. I can show you some chords and some tunes. You are my friend and I want to help you."
+
+Tom and Anna sit on the floor and Tom gives Anna his big guitar. He takes her small guitar and shows her how to put her fingers on the strings. He says, "This is how you make a C chord. And this is how you make a G chord. And this is how you make a D chord. If you change the chords, you can make different songs."
+
+Anna tries to copy Tom and makes some sounds with her guitar. She says, "Wow, this is fun. I like playing guitar. Thank you, Tom. You are very helpful."
+
+Tom says, "You are welcome, Anna. You are very smart. You learn fast. Do you want to play a song with me?"
+
+Anna says, "Yes, please. What song do you want to play?"
+
+Tom says, "How about 'Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star'? It is easy and pretty. I will play the chords and you can play the melody. Are you ready?"
+
+Anna says, "Yes, I am ready. Let's play."
+
+Tom and Anna start to play their guitars. They make music together. They sing along with their guitars. They sound good and they feel happy. They smile at each other and say, "We are guitar friends!"
+
+The end.
+Ben and Lily went to the bakery with Mom. They saw many yummy things in the window. Mom said they could each pick one pastry to eat. Ben chose a chocolate croissant. Lily chose a blueberry muffin.
+
+They sat at a small table and ate their pastries. Ben liked his croissant. It was soft and sweet and had chocolate inside. Lily did not like her muffin. It was rough and dry and had seeds on top. She made a face and pushed it away.
+
+Mom saw Lily's face and asked her what was wrong. Lily said she did not like her muffin. It was not yummy like Ben's croissant. Mom tried to explain to Lily that muffins and croissants were different kinds of pastries. Some people liked muffins and some people liked croissants. It was okay to have different tastes.
+
+Lily did not understand. She wanted a croissant like Ben. She asked Mom if she could have one. Mom said no. She said Lily had to finish her muffin first. She said it was not nice to waste food. She said maybe next time Lily could choose a different pastry.
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She did not want to finish her muffin. She did not want to wait for next time. She wanted a croissant now. She started to cry and kick her legs. Mom was not happy. She told Lily to stop crying and kicking. She said Lily was being naughty and rude. She said they had to leave the bakery right away.
+
+Ben felt sorry for Lily. He liked his croissant, but he did not like to see Lily cry. He had an idea. He broke his croissant in half and gave one half to Lily. He said Lily could have some of his croissant. He said he liked to share with his sister. He said maybe Lily would like his croissant too.
+
+Lily stopped crying and kicking. She looked at Ben's croissant. She saw the chocolate inside. She smiled and said thank you to Ben. She took a bite of his croissant. She liked it. It was soft and sweet and had chocolate inside. She said it was yummy like Ben said. She said she was sorry for being naughty and rude. She said she loved Ben.
+
+Mom saw Ben and Lily share their croissant. She smiled and said they were good children. She said she was proud of them. She said they could have another pastry if they wanted. Ben and Lily looked at each other and nodded. They said they wanted another pastry. They said they wanted to try something new. They said they wanted to have fun. Mom agreed and took them to the counter. They picked another pastry and ate it together. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily liked to play pirates in their room. They had a big box that they pretended was a ship. They also had hats, swords, and a map. They wanted to find treasure on an island.
+
+One day, they saw a new toy in the store. It was a pirate hook that you could attach to your hand. Ben thought it was very cool and unique. He asked his mom to buy it for him. Lily wanted one too, but there was only one left. Ben said he saw it first and it was his.
+
+When they got home, Ben attached the hook to his hand and said, "Arrr, I'm the captain of the ship. Lily, you are my mate. Follow my orders or walk the plank!" Lily did not like that. She said, "No, you are not the captain. We are both pirates. We share the ship and the map. And I want to try the hook too!"
+
+Ben did not want to share. He said, "The hook is mine. You can't have it. It makes me the best pirate ever. Now, give me the map or I'll poke you with my hook!" He waved his hook at Lily and tried to grab the map from her.
+
+Lily was scared and angry. She said, "Stop it, Ben. You are being mean and selfish. The hook is not a real pirate thing. It is just a toy. And you are hurting me with it!" She pushed Ben away and ran to their mom.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to their room. She saw Ben with the hook and Lily with a scratch on her arm. She was very upset and disappointed. She said, "Ben, what have you done? You hurt your sister with that hook. That is not how you play pirates. That is not how you treat your family. You have to say sorry to Lily and give her the hook. And you are grounded for a week. No more pirate games for you!"
+
+Ben felt ashamed and sorry. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I'm sorry, Mom. I was wrong. I don't want to be a mean pirate. I want to be your brother and friend. Can you forgive me?" Lily nodded and hugged him. Mom took the hook and said, "Maybe when you learn to share and be kind, you can play with the hook again. But for now, it goes in the trash. Come on, let's go have some cookies and milk." She led them to the kitchen.
+
+Ben and Lily learned a lesson that day. They realized that being a pirate was not as fun as being a sibling. And that a hook was not as unique as a hug.
+Lisa was a very sick girl. She had a big pain in her tummy and she could not eat or play. She had to go to the hospital and have an operation. She was very scared and sad.
+
+Her mommy and daddy were with her and they gave her a big hug and a kiss. They told her that the doctor was very nice and he would make her feel better. They gave her a teddy bear to hold and said they would be waiting for her when she woke up.
+
+Lisa went to a big room with a big bed and a big light. The doctor came and smiled at her. He said, "Hello, Lisa. I'm going to help you with your tummy. You will have a little sleep and then you will be all better. Don't worry, I will be very careful and gentle."
+
+Lisa nodded and said, "Thank you, doctor. You are very kind." She held her teddy bear and closed her eyes. The doctor gave her a mask to breathe and she felt very sleepy.
+
+When Lisa woke up, she was in another room with her mommy and daddy. They were very happy and they gave her another hug and a kiss. They said, "You did very well, Lisa. The operation was a success and your tummy is fixed. You are very brave and strong."
+
+Lisa smiled and said, "I feel much better, mommy and daddy. Thank you for being with me. And thank you, teddy bear, for being my friend." She cuddled her teddy bear and felt very cozy and warm.
+
+The doctor came and checked on her. He said, "You are a very good patient, Lisa. You are healing very fast and you will be able to go home soon. You are very graceful and sweet."
+
+Lisa said, "Thank you, doctor. You are very good and smart. You made me feel better. You are very graceful and nice."
+
+The doctor smiled and said, "You are very welcome, Lisa. You are a very special girl. You have a lot of love and courage. You are very graceful and wonderful."
+Tom and Lily were hungry. They saw a big basket of muffins on the table. The muffins smelled good. They had yellow tops and brown bottoms.
+
+"Let's take one," Tom said. "Mom is not here. She will not know."
+
+"No, we can't," Lily said. "Mom said no. She said the muffins are for later. She will be mad if we take one."
+
+Tom laughed. "You are scared. I dare you to take one. I dare you to take a bite. It will be yummy."
+
+Lily did not want to be scared. She wanted to be brave. She took a muffin from the basket. She took a bite. It was yummy. She smiled.
+
+Tom took a muffin too. He took a big bite. He did not smile. He made a face. He spit out the bite. He felt something hard in his mouth. He looked at the muffin. He saw something shiny.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom cried. "There is a pin in the muffin! It hurts!"
+
+Lily dropped her muffin. She saw a pin in her muffin too. She felt scared. She felt sorry.
+
+Mom came in. She saw the muffins on the floor. She saw the pins in the muffins. She saw Tom and Lily. She was very mad.
+
+"What did you do?" Mom yelled. "These muffins are not for you. They are for the craft fair. The pins are for decoration. You could have hurt yourself. You could have choked. You are very naughty. You are in big trouble."
+
+Tom and Lily felt bad. They felt ashamed. They wished they had not taken the muffins. They wished they had not dared each other. They wished they had listened to Mom. They learned a lesson. They said sorry to Mom. But Mom was still mad. She sent them to their room. They had no muffins. They had no fun. They had a bad ending.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they go to the shop with Sue's mom. The shop has many things. Some are old and some are modern.
+
+Tom sees a modern car. It is red and shiny. It has lights and sounds. Tom wants the car. He asks Sue's mom to buy it for him. Sue's mom says no. She says the car is too expensive and Tom has enough toys at home. Tom is angry. He cries and shouts. He says he hates Sue's mom.
+
+Sue sees a modern doll. It is pretty and soft. It has a dress and a hat. Sue likes the doll. She asks Sue's mom to buy it for her. Sue's mom says yes. She says the doll is on sale and Sue has been good. Sue is happy. She hugs Sue's mom. She says she loves Sue's mom.
+
+Tom and Sue leave the shop. Tom is still angry. He does not talk to Sue. He does not look at her doll. He suffers. He thinks Sue's mom is mean and Sue is lucky.
+
+Sue is sad. She wants to play with Tom. She does not care about the doll. She cares about her friend. She says to Tom, "Tom, do you want to play with my doll? We can share. I am sorry you did not get the car. Maybe next time."
+
+Tom looks at Sue. He sees her kind eyes and her smile. He feels sorry. He says to Sue, "Sue, thank you for sharing. I am sorry I was rude. You are a good friend. I do not need the car. I have you."
+
+Tom and Sue hug. They play with the doll. They are happy. They learn that things are not important. Friends are important.
+Bella was a girl who liked to own many things. She had many toys, books, clothes and candies. She did not like to share with her friends or her brother. She always said, "This is mine, you cannot have it!"
+
+One day, she saw a mole in the garden. She thought it was cute and wanted to own it too. She ran to the mole and tried to catch it. But the mole was fast and dug a hole in the ground. Bella was frustrated and angry. She stomped her feet and cried, "Come out, mole! I want you to be my pet!"
+
+The mole heard Bella and poked his head out of the hole. He said, "Why do you want me to be your pet? You have so many things already. Don't you know that owning is not the same as loving? If you love something, you let it be free and happy. If you own something, you only think of yourself and make it sad."
+
+Bella was surprised and ashamed. She realized that the mole was right. She had been selfish and greedy. She said, "I'm sorry, mole. You are very wise and kind. I don't want to own you. I want to be your friend. Can you forgive me?"
+
+The mole smiled and said, "Of course, I can forgive you. You are very brave and honest. I want to be your friend too. But I cannot live with you. I have to stay in the garden, where I belong. But you can visit me anytime. And maybe you can share some of your things with your friends and brother. They will be happy and you will be happy too."
+
+Bella nodded and hugged the mole. She said, "Thank you, mole. You have taught me a valuable lesson. Owning is not the same as loving. Sharing is caring. I will remember that always."
+
+The end.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with boats. They have a big box full of boats. Some boats are red, some boats are blue, some boats are yellow. They pretend the box is a port, where boats come and go.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben want to play with the same boat. It is a green boat with a sail. Anna says, "I want the green boat. It is my favorite." Ben says, "No, I want the green boat. It is my favorite too." They both pull the boat, but it does not move. It is stuck in the box.
+
+Anna and Ben start to cry. They do not want to share the boat. They do not want to play with other boats. They are angry and sad. Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the green boat in the box. She says, "Why are you crying, Anna and Ben? What is the problem?"
+
+Anna and Ben tell Mom about the green boat. They both want it, but they cannot have it. Mom says, "I have an idea. Why don't you take turns with the green boat? You can play with it for a little while, and then give it to your twin. That way, you can both enjoy the boat, and be fair and kind to each other. What do you think?"
+
+Anna and Ben think about Mom's idea. They do not like it at first, but they do not want to cry anymore. They do not want to make Mom sad. They do not want to fight with their twin. They love their twin. They say, "OK, Mom. We will try your idea. We will take turns with the green boat. We promise."
+
+Mom smiles and hugs Anna and Ben. She says, "I am proud of you, Anna and Ben. You are good twins. You are good at sharing and promising. Now, let's see who goes first with the green boat. How about we flip a coin?" Anna and Ben nod and smile. They are happy again. They go to the port and play with the green boat. They keep their promise. They have fun.
+Lily and Max were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were brave explorers in a jungle. They had a big box that was their tent, and some pillows that were their animals.
+
+"Let's go to the bathroom," Max said. "It's dark and scary in there. Maybe we can find a treasure."
+
+Lily was not sure. She did not like the bathroom. It had a loud noise when you flushed, and a big mirror that made her look funny. She was afraid of the shadows and the spiders.
+
+"I don't want to go," she said. "It's not fun. It's scary."
+
+Max laughed. "You're a chicken," he said. "I dare you to go. It's easy. Just turn on the light and look around. I'll go with you."
+
+Lily did not want to be a chicken. She wanted to be brave like Max. She took a deep breath and nodded.
+
+"Okay," she said. "I'll go. But you have to hold my hand."
+
+Max smiled and grabbed her hand. They walked to the bathroom and opened the door. They turned on the light and looked around. They saw the sink, the toilet, the bathtub, and the mirror. They did not see any treasure, or any spiders.
+
+"See?" Max said. "It's not so bad. It's just a bathroom."
+
+Lily felt silly. She had been afraid of nothing. She smiled and hugged Max.
+
+"You're right," she said. "It's not scary. It's easy. We're brave explorers."
+
+They decided to go back to the living room and play some more. They had fun with their tent and their animals. They forgot about the bathroom. They were happy.
+Sara was playing in the rain with her dog, Max. She liked to splash in the puddles and feel the water on her face. Max liked to chase the raindrops and shake his fur. They were having fun, but they were also getting very wet.
+
+Soon, Sara's mom called them to come inside. She said it was time to get dry and warm. Sara and Max ran to the door, but Max slipped on the wet grass and fell. He yelped and limped to Sara. Sara saw that his paw was bleeding. She felt sad and scared. She wanted to help Max.
+
+Sara's mom saw what happened and came to hug them. She said, "Don't worry, Sara. Max will be okay. Let's go inside and dry him off. Then we can wrap his paw with a bandage. That will make him feel better." She took a towel and rubbed Max gently. He wagged his tail and licked Sara's face. Sara smiled and hugged him back.
+
+They went inside and Sara's mom found a bandage and some tape. She wrapped Max's paw carefully and said, "There, that's done. Now Max has a nice wrap to protect his paw. It will heal soon and he won't hurt anymore." She gave Max a treat and a toy. He barked happily and played with Sara. Sara said, "Thank you, mom. You are the best. I love you and Max." Sara's mom said, "I love you too, Sara. And I love Max. You are both very brave and sweet. Now let's have some hot chocolate and cookies. That will make us all feel cozy." They snuggled on the couch and enjoyed their snack. They were dry and warm and happy.
+Lily likes to try new things. She likes to try new games, new books, and new foods. One day, her mom gives her a plate with fish on it. Lily has never eaten fish before.
+
+Lily looks at the fish. It is white and smooth. It smells good. Lily picks up a piece with her fork and puts it in her mouth. She chews and chews. She likes the fish. It is soft and tasty.
+
+Lily smiles and says, "Mom, I like fish. Can I have more?" Her mom is happy and gives her more fish. Lily eats all the fish on her plate. She is full and happy.
+
+Lily tries something new and likes it. She is proud of herself. She says, "Mom, what can I try next?" Her mom hugs her and says, "You can try anything you want, Lily. You are a brave and curious girl." Lily hugs her mom and says, "I love you, Mom. And I love fish."
+Anna and Ben were going on vacation with their mom and dad. They were very happy and excited. They packed their bags with clothes, toys and books. They also brought their pet hamster, Mimi, in a small cage.
+
+They got in the car and drove to the airport. Anna and Ben looked out the window and saw many things: big buildings, green trees, colorful signs, and other cars. They asked their mom and dad many questions.
+
+"Are we there yet?" Ben asked.
+
+"Not yet, sweetie. We still have to fly on a big plane," mom said.
+
+"Can I hold Mimi?" Anna asked.
+
+"Sure, honey. But be gentle and don't release her. She might get lost or scared," dad said.
+
+Anna took the cage and opened the door. She put her hand inside and gently lifted Mimi. She cuddled her and stroked her fur. Mimi squeaked and nibbled on Anna's finger.
+
+"She likes me!" Anna said.
+
+"She likes you very much. But remember, don't release her," dad repeated.
+
+Anna nodded and smiled. She held Mimi close to her chest. She was not anxious at all. She was looking forward to the vacation. She wondered what new things she would see and do. She hoped Mimi would like it too.
+Tom and Lily were playing a game in the garden. They had a big box and some sticks and they made a fort. They pretended they were soldiers and they had to protect the fort from the bad guys.
+
+"Look, here they come!" Tom said, pointing at some birds. "We have to shoot them with our sticks!"
+
+Lily nodded and picked up a stick. She threw it at a bird, but she missed. The bird flew away, but another one came closer.
+
+"Watch out, Lily!" Tom shouted. "That bird is going to get you!"
+
+Lily turned around and saw the bird. It was big and black and had a sharp beak. It looked angry. Lily was scared. She dropped her stick and ran to the box.
+
+"Help, Tom, help!" she cried.
+
+Tom ran to the box too. He grabbed another stick and waved it at the bird. He tried to scare it away.
+
+"Go away, bird, go away!" he yelled. "This is our fort, you can't have it!"
+
+The bird did not go away. It flapped its wings and pecked at the box. It made a loud noise. Tom and Lily hugged each other. They were very tired of playing the game. They wished the bird would leave them alone.
+
+Then they heard a voice.
+
+"Tom, Lily, what are you doing?" It was their mom. She had come to the garden to see them.
+
+"Mom, mom, help us!" Tom and Lily said. "There is a bad bird and it wants our fort!"
+
+Their mom looked at the bird. She smiled. She knew it was not a bad bird. It was a crow. It liked shiny things. It had seen something shiny in the box and wanted to get it.
+
+"Don't worry, kids, it's just a crow," she said. "It won't hurt you. It just wants this." She reached into the box and pulled out a necklace. It was Lily's necklace. She had put it in the box to make it look pretty.
+
+"See, it's your necklace, Lily," she said. "The crow likes it because it sparkles. But it's yours, not his. Here, you can have it back."
+
+She gave the necklace to Lily. Lily smiled. She put it around her neck. She was happy to have it back.
+
+"Thank you, mom," she said.
+
+"Thank you, mom," Tom said.
+
+Their mom hugged them. She was proud of them. They had tried to protect their fort. They had played a good game.
+
+"Are you hungry, kids?" she asked. "Do you want some lunch?"
+
+"Yes, please, mom," Tom and Lily said.
+
+They followed their mom to the house. They left the box and the sticks in the garden. They did not care about the fort anymore. They were too tired to play. They wanted to eat and rest. They hoped the crow would find another shiny thing to play with.
+Lily and Ben were very happy. They moved to a new house with Mom and Dad. They had many boxes to unpack. Mom said they could unpack their toys first.
+
+"Can we play with our toys now?" Lily asked.
+
+"Not yet, sweetie. We have to eat dinner first. Dad ordered pizza for us. Do you like pizza?" Mom said.
+
+"Yes, we love pizza!" Ben said.
+
+Mom smiled and opened the pizza box. She gave Lily and Ben each a slice. They ate it with their hands. It was hot and cheesy and yummy.
+
+"Can we have more pizza?" Lily asked.
+
+"Of course, but only if you finish your salad too. You need to eat some greens. They are good for you." Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben made a face. They did not like salad. It was cold and crunchy and bitter.
+
+"Please, Mom. We are full. Can we skip the salad?" Ben said.
+
+"No, you can't. You have to eat a balanced meal. Salad has vitamins and minerals that help you grow and stay healthy. Pizza has carbs and fats that give you energy and taste good, but too much of them can make you sick. Do you understand?" Mom said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They wanted to be healthy and strong. They did not want to be sick. They took a bite of their salad. It was not so bad. They ate it all.
+
+"Good job, kids. You ate your salad. You can have more pizza now. And then you can play with your toys." Mom said.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. You are the best." Lily and Ben said.
+
+They hugged Mom and ate more pizza. They were happy and full. They learned that eating different foods was good for them. They could not wait to unpack their toys and have fun. They loved their new house.
+Sara and Ben like to help their mom in the kitchen. They put on their aprons and wash their hands. Mom says they can make a cake today. Sara and Ben are happy. They love cake.
+
+Mom gives them a big bowl and a mixer. She tells them to put some flour, sugar, eggs, butter and milk in the bowl. Then she says to use the mixer to mix everything well. Sara and Ben take turns to hold the mixer. It makes a loud noise and the batter becomes smooth and creamy.
+
+Mom smiles and says they are doing a great job. She asks them what flavor they want for the cake. Sara says chocolate and Ben says vanilla. Mom says they can have both. She takes out two cake pans and pours some batter in each one. Then she adds some cocoa powder to one pan and some vanilla extract to the other. She mixes them with a spoon and says they have made a lovely marble cake.
+
+Sara and Ben are excited. They want to see the cake in the oven. Mom says they have to wait for a while and be careful not to touch the hot oven. She says they can decorate the cake with some frosting and sprinkles when it is ready. Sara and Ben agree. They say they care about the cake and want to make it look pretty. They hug their mom and thank her for letting them help. Mom hugs them back and says she loves them very much.

+
+One day, Anna and Ben want to play shop. Anna is the shopkeeper. Ben is the customer. Anna has some toys and books in the hut. Ben has some coins in his pocket.
+
+"Hello, welcome to my shop!" Anna says. She is cheerful. She likes to pretend.
+
+"Hello, what do you have?" Ben asks. He looks at the toys and books.
+
+"I have a ball, a doll, a car, and a book. What do you want?" Anna says.
+
+"I want the car. How much is it?" Ben says.
+
+"The car is two coins. Can you pay?" Anna says.
+
+"Yes, I can pay. Here you are." Ben gives Anna two coins. He takes the car.
+
+"Thank you for buying the car. Have a nice day!" Anna says.
+
+"Thank you for selling the car. Bye!" Ben says.
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They play with the car in the hut. They have fun. They are good friends.
+Tom and Anna like to play with their toy kitchen. They have pots and pans, spoons and forks, and many pretend foods. They pretend to cook and eat, and sometimes they invite their teddy bears and dolls to join them.
+
+One day, they decide to make a fancy cake for their tea party. They use a big bowl, a wooden spoon, and some flour, sugar, and eggs. They also add some chocolate chips and sprinkles. They mix everything well and pour it into a cake pan.
+
+"Can you measure the oven, Tom?" Anna asks. "We need to know how hot it is."
+
+Tom takes a small measure with numbers on it and puts it inside the oven. He looks at the numbers and says, "It is very hot, Anna. It is two hundred degrees."
+
+"Good, Tom. That is perfect for our cake. Let's put it in the oven and wait for it to bake." Anna says. She opens the oven door and slides the cake pan inside. She sets a timer for twenty minutes.
+
+While they wait, they set the table with plates, cups, and napkins. They also make some lemonade and pour it into a fancy pitcher. They dress up in their best clothes and put on some hats and necklaces.
+
+The timer rings and they take out the cake. It smells delicious and looks very pretty. They let it cool down a bit and then cut it into slices. They put some whipped cream and cherries on top of each slice.
+

+Lily and Ben were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big tent in the park. It was an event for the town. There were games, music and food. Lily and Ben wanted to go inside.
+
+They asked their moms if they could go. Their moms said yes, but they had to stay together and be careful. Lily and Ben thanked their moms and ran to the tent. They played some games and won some prizes. They were happy.
+
+Then they smelled something delicious. It was a big cake on a table. It had pink frosting and sprinkles. Lily and Ben loved cake. They wanted a slice. They went to the table and saw a sign. It said: "Do not touch. This cake is for the mayor."
+
+Lily and Ben did not know what a mayor was. They did not care. They thought the sign was silly. They reached for the cake. They did not see the man behind them. He was the mayor. He was angry.
+
+He shouted at Lily and Ben. He said they were naughty and rude. He said they ruined his cake. He said they had to leave the event. He took their prizes and threw them away. He called their moms and told them what happened.
+
+Lily and Ben were scared and sad. They cried. They said they were sorry. They said they just wanted some cake. Their moms came and took them home. They were not happy. They said Lily and Ben had to learn to respect and obey. They said they had to go to bed without dinner.
+
+Lily and Ben felt bad. They wished they had not touched the cake. They wished they had listened to the sign. They wished they had thanked the mayor for the event. They learned a hard lesson. They hoped they could be friends again.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the garden. They like to run and jump and sing. They have a ball and a bike and a doll. They are happy.
+
+Then they hear a ring. It is the door. Sara and Ben run to the door. They want to see who it is. Maybe it is Mom or Dad or Grandma or a friend.
+
+But it is not. It is a stranger. He has a big bag and a hat and a beard. He smiles and says hello. He says he has something for them. He says he is good.
+
+Sara and Ben do not know him. They feel scared. They do not want to open the door. They do not want his thing. They do not trust him. They remember what Mom and Dad told them. They told them to never open the door to strangers. They told them to be safe and smart.
+
+So Sara and Ben do not open the door. They run away from the door. They go to the phone. They call Mom and Dad. They tell them about the stranger. They ask them to come home soon.
+
+Mom and Dad are proud of Sara and Ben. They say they did the right thing. They say they are good and brave. They say they love them. They say they will be home soon.
+
+Sara and Ben feel better. They hug each other. They go back to the garden. They play some more. They wait for Mom and Dad. They are happy.
+Ben and Mia like to play games. They have many games in their room. Some games are big, some games are small. Some games have cards, some games have dice. Some games are fun, some games are hard.
+
+One day, Ben and Mia find a new game in their room. It is a big box with many holes. Inside the box, there are many animals. The animals are soft and furry. The animals have noses and ears and tails. The game is called Poke-a-Mole.
+
+Ben and Mia want to play Poke-a-Mole. They read the rules. The rules are easy. They have to poke the animals when they pop out of the holes. They have to be fast and careful. They have to count how many animals they poke. The one who pokes the most animals wins.
+
+Ben and Mia start to play Poke-a-Mole. They take turns to poke the animals. They laugh and shout. They poke the moles, the rabbits, the squirrels, the mice. They poke the fox, the skunk, the raccoon, the badger. They poke the hedgehog, the porcupine, the otter, the beaver.
+
+But they do not poke the bear. The bear is big and scary. The bear is angry and grumpy. The bear is filthy and smelly. The bear does not like to be poked. The bear growls and roars. The bear pops out of the hole and chases Ben and Mia. Ben and Mia scream and run. They drop the game and hide under the bed. They do not play Poke-a-Mole anymore. They play a different game. A safer game. A cleaner game.
+Anna and Ben are playing with blocks in their room. They are building a big tower with many colors. Anna likes to put the blue blocks on top, and Ben likes to put the red blocks on the bottom.
+
+"Look, Anna, our tower is almost complete!" Ben says. "We only need one more block to make it the tallest tower ever!"
+
+Anna looks around and sees a yellow block on the floor. She runs to get it, but she trips over a toy car and falls down. She feels a pain in her knee and starts to cry.
+
+"Anna, are you okay?" Ben asks. He drops the block and goes to help his sister. He sees a little blood on her knee and gets scared.

+
+She carries Anna to the bathroom and puts her on the sink. She gets a wet cloth and a band-aid from the cabinet. She gently wipes Anna's knee and puts the band-aid on it.
+
+"There, all done. How do you feel, Anna?" Mommy asks.
+
+Anna stops crying and looks at her knee. She sees the band-aid with a picture of a unicorn on it. She smiles and touches it.
+
+"It feels better, mommy. Thank you. The band-aid is incredible. It has a unicorn on it. I love unicorns." Anna says.
+
+Mommy smiles and hugs Anna. She tells her she is very brave and she loves her very much.
+
+"Can I go back to play with Ben now, mommy?" Anna asks.
+
+"Of course, honey. But be careful not to trip over the toys again, okay?" Mommy says.
+
+Anna nods and jumps off the sink. She runs back to her room and finds Ben waiting for her with the yellow block.
+
+"Anna, you're back! Are you okay?" Ben asks.
+
+"I'm okay, Ben. Mommy fixed my knee. Look, I have a unicorn band-aid. It's incredible." Anna says.

+
+They run away from the dog. They look for a place to hide. They see a slide. They climb up the slide. They hope the dog will not find them.
+
+But the dog sees them. The dog runs to the slide. The dog jumps on the slide. The slide shakes. Tim and Sam scream. They slide down fast. They run to their mom.

+Tom and Lily were playing with their blocks. They liked to build towers and houses and bridges. But sometimes, they had a problem. They did not have enough blocks of the same color or shape.
+
+"Look, Lily, I need one more red block to finish my tower. Do you have one?" Tom asked.
+
+"No, I don't. I only have blue and yellow blocks. Can you use a blue one instead?" Lily said.
+
+"No, I can't. It will not look good. I want a red one. Can you find one for me?" Tom said.
+
+Lily looked around the room. She saw a red block on the shelf. But it was not a block. It was a book. She had an idea. She took the book and went to Tom.
+
+"Here, Tom, I found a red block for you. You can use it to finish your tower," Lily said.
+
+She gave the book to Tom. Tom looked at the book. He saw that it was not a block. It was a book. He was not happy.
+
+"Lily, this is not a block. This is a book. You can't replace a block with a book. They are different. A book is for reading, not for building. You are silly," Tom said.
+
+He threw the book on the floor. It made a loud noise. Lily was sad. She did not mean to be silly. She wanted to help Tom. She started to cry.
+
+Their mom heard the noise and the crying. She came to the room. She saw the book on the floor and the blocks on the table. She saw Tom and Lily. She knew what happened.
+
+"Tom, Lily, what is going on here? Why are you crying, Lily? Why did you throw the book, Tom?" Mom asked.
+
+Tom and Lily told their mom what happened. Mom listened to them. She was wise. She knew how to solve the problem.
+
+"Tom, Lily, I understand that you both like to play with blocks. But sometimes, you have to share and be creative. You can't always have the blocks you want. You have to use what you have. And you can't replace a block with a book. That is not fair or nice. A book is not a toy. It is a treasure. It has stories and pictures and words. You can learn from it and enjoy it. You should respect it and take care of it. You should say sorry to Lily and to the book," Mom said.
+
+Tom felt sorry. He knew Mom was right. He said sorry to Lily and to the book. He gave Lily a hug. He picked up the book and put it back on the shelf.
+
+"Lily, I'm sorry. I was mean to you and to the book. You were trying to help me. Thank you. Do you want to play with me again?" Tom said.
+
+Lily smiled. She forgave Tom. She said yes. She wanted to play with him again.
+
+"Tom, I'm sorry too. I was not smart. I thought the book was a block. I did not think. I wanted you to be happy. You are my brother. I love you. Let's play together," Lily said.
+
+They went back to the table. They looked at their blocks. They decided to make something new. They mixed the colors and the shapes. They made a rainbow and a castle and a train. They had fun. They were happy. They were a success. Mom was proud of them. She gave them a kiss. She told them a story from the book. They listened and learned. They were wise.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with blocks and cars. One day, they have a big fight. Anna wants to finish the tower she is making with the blocks. Ben wants to use the same blocks for his car. They both pull and push the blocks. The tower falls down. Anna and Ben are very angry.
+
+They start to say mean things to each other. Anna says Ben is a bad friend. Ben says Anna is a liar. They do not tell the truth. They hurt each other's feelings. They do not want to play anymore.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She comes to see what is wrong. She sees the blocks and the cars on the floor. She sees Anna and Ben with sad faces. She asks them what happened. Anna and Ben tell Mom their stories. They both blame each other. Mom listens to them. She is not happy.
+
+Mom says Anna and Ben need to say sorry. She says they need to be polite and share. She says they need to tell the truth and be nice. She says they can still be friends. Anna and Ben look at each other. They feel sorry. They say sorry to each other. They hug and make up. They decide to play together again. They use the blocks and the cars to make a new tower and a new car. They are happy. Mom is happy too. She says Anna and Ben are good friends. She says she is proud of them. She gives them a kiss and a cookie. The end.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They like to swing, slide and run. They see a big truck near the fence. The truck has many boxes and bags. A man is taking them out of the truck.
+
+"Look, Ben, what is he doing?" Anna asks.
+
+"Maybe he is giving things to people. Let's go and see," Ben says.
+
+They run to the fence and watch the man. He is wearing a blue shirt and a hat. He smiles at them and says hello.
+
+"Hi, kids. Do you want to know what I am doing?" he asks.
+
+"Yes, please," Anna and Ben say.
+
+"I am a supply man. I bring things that people need, like food, clothes and toys. I work for a generous group that helps people who don't have enough," he explains.
+
+"Wow, that is very nice of you and the group," Anna says.
+
+"Can we help you?" Ben asks.
+
+"Sure, you can help me carry some bags to the tent over there. They are not heavy, but you have to hold them tight around your waist, like this," he shows them.
+
+Anna and Ben each take a bag and follow the man to the tent. They feel happy to help. They meet some other people who say thank you and give them hugs. Anna and Ben think that being a supply man is a good job. They want to grow up and be like him.

+Lila is a girl who likes to play with dolls. She has many dolls, but she wants a new one. She wants a doll with red hair and green eyes. She thinks this doll is rare and pretty.
+
+One day, she goes to the toy store with her mom. She sees many dolls, but none of them have red hair and green eyes. She feels sad and looks around. Then, she sees a doll on a high shelf. The doll has red hair and green eyes. Lila wants that doll very much.
+
+She points to the doll and says, "Mom, look! That is the doll I want! Can I have it, please?" Her mom looks at the doll and smiles. She says, "That is a rare and pretty doll, Lila. What is her name?" Lila thinks for a moment and says, "Her name is Ruby. She is my new friend."

+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is barking and running. Anna and Ben are scared.
+
+"Let's go away!" Anna says. "The dog is dangerous!"
+
+But Ben is curious. He wants to see the dog. He says, "No, I want to go near the dog. Maybe he is friendly. I want to test him."
+
+Anna shakes her head. She says, "No, Ben, don't do that. The dog might bite you. He might hurt you. Please, promise me you won't go near the dog."
+
+Ben looks at Anna. He sees that she is worried. He says, "Okay, Anna, I promise. I won't go near the dog. I will stay with you."

+One day, Tom and Lily were playing in the house. They liked to pretend they were pirates and look for treasure. They used a map that Tom drew with crayons and followed the clues.
+
+"Arr, matey, the treasure is in the closet!" Tom said, pointing to the door. "Let's go and see what we find!"
+
+Lily nodded and opened the door. But instead of treasure, they saw a big spider on the wall. It had eight legs and hairy eyes. Lily screamed and ran away. Tom was scared too, but he tried to be brave.
+
+"Don't panic, Lily, it's just a spider!" he shouted. "We can get rid of it!"
+
+He looked around for something to use. He saw a broom in the corner. He grabbed it and ran to the closet. He tried to hit the spider with the broom, but the spider was too fast. It jumped on the broom and crawled towards Tom. Tom dropped the broom and backed away. He felt weak and shaky.
+
+"Help, help, help!" he cried. "The spider is coming!"
+
+Lily heard Tom's cry and came back. She saw the spider on the broom and Tom on the floor. She felt sorry for Tom and angry at the spider. She picked up a shoe and threw it at the spider. The shoe hit the spider and made it fall off the broom. The spider ran away and hid under the bed.
+
+"Ha, take that, you nasty spider!" Lily said. "Are you okay, Tom?"
+
+Tom got up and hugged Lily. He was glad she came back and saved him.
+
+"Thank you, Lily, you are very brave!" he said. "You are the best pirate ever!"
+
+Lily smiled and hugged Tom back. They were happy they had each other.
+
+"Let's forget about the treasure and play something else," Lily said. "How about we make a fort with the pillows and blankets?"
+
+"Okay, that sounds fun!" Tom said. "But no more spiders, please!"
+
+They laughed and went to make a fort. They forgot about the spider and the treasure. They had more fun playing together.
+Lila and Tom were at the park with their mom. They saw a big pond with many ducks and swans. Lila liked the swans. They had long necks and white feathers. She wanted to touch one.
+
+"Mom, can I touch a swan?" she asked.
+
+"No, Lila, you can't. Swans are not pets. They can bite you. They are wild animals. You have to stay away from them," mom said.
+
+But Lila did not listen. She saw a swan that was close to the shore. She ran to it and tried to grab its wing. The swan did not like that. It hissed and snapped at Lila. Lila was scared. She let go of the wing and ran back to mom.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! The swan bit me!" she cried.
+
+Mom hugged her and looked at her hand. There was a small red mark on it. She took out a tissue and cleaned it.
+
+"You are lucky, Lila. The swan did not hurt you much. But you should not do that again. You have to respect the animals. They have feelings too. They don't like to be bothered," mom said.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. I won't do that again. I learned my lesson," Lila said.
+
+Tom watched the swan swim away. He saw another swan join it. They looked happy together.
+
+"Mom, why did the swan bite Lila?" he asked.
+
+"Because the swan was afraid, Tom. Lila scared it. The swan wanted to escape. It wanted to be with its friend. Swans are very loyal. They stay with the same partner for life. They are wise animals. They know how to love and protect each other," mom said.
+
+"Wow, that's amazing, mom. I wish I could be like a swan. They are so beautiful and strong and smart," Tom said.
+
+"You can be, Tom. You can be beautiful and strong and smart in your own way. You just have to be kind and respectful to everyone. And you have to listen to your mom," mom said.
+
+"Okay, mom. I will. I love you, mom," Tom said.
+
+"I love you too, Tom. And I love you too, Lila. Now, let's go and have some ice cream. How does that sound?" mom said.
+
+"Yay, ice cream! That sounds great, mom!" Lila and Tom said.
+
+They all smiled and walked away from the pond. The swans watched them go. They nodded to each other and swam away too. They were happy and free.

+
+A girl named Sue came to the park and saw Tim with the box. She asked, "Can I play with those things too?" Tim said, "No, they are all mine!" Sue was sad and walked away. Tim played with the things all by himself, not sharing with anyone.
+
+Later, it started to rain, and all the things in the box got wet and ruined. Tim was very sad because he could not play with the things anymore.

+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She was very anxious because she had to go to school for the first time. She was scared to leave her mommy and daddy. But her mommy and daddy told her that she will have success at school and make lots of friends.
+
+When Lily got to school, she saw a boy named Timmy. He was crying because he missed his mommy too. Lily went over to Timmy and gave him a big kiss on his cheek. Timmy stopped crying and smiled at Lily. They became friends and had lots of fun at school.
+
+At the end of the day, Lily's mommy and daddy picked her up from school. Lily was so happy and excited to tell them about her success at school and how she made a new friend named Timmy. Her mommy and daddy were so proud of her and gave her lots of hugs and kisses.
+Once upon a time, there was a little baby called Tom. Tom was a tiny infant who loved to play with his toys. One day, Tom's mommy took him to the park to play. Tom was so happy and felt safe with his mommy. 
+
+Suddenly, the ground began to tremble and shake. Tom's mommy picked him up and held him tight. Tom felt scared but he knew he was safe with his mommy. After a few minutes, the shaking stopped and everything went back to normal. 
+
+Tom's mommy explained that it was an earthquake and sometimes the ground trembles. Tom didn't really understand but he was just happy to be safe with his mommy. They continued to play in the park and Tom giggled and played with his toys.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to bake with her mommy. One day, they decided to make chocolate cupcakes. Lily helped her mommy mix the batter. She poured in the milk and stirred it with a big spoon.
+
+When the cupcakes were in the oven, Lily and her mommy went outside to watch the sunset. The sky turned orange and pink, and it was so pretty. Lily said, "Look mommy, the sky is fair!" Her mommy smiled and said, "Yes, it is beautiful."
+
+After the sunset, they went back inside to check on the cupcakes. They were perfect! Lily helped her mommy put frosting on them, and they ate them all up. It was a fun day for Lily and her mommy.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved pizza more than anything in the world! One day, her mom brought home a big, round pizza with cheese and pepperoni on top. Lily was so happy, she could hardly wait to eat it.
+
+But when her mom went to cut the pizza, the knife got stuck in the crust. Lily tried to help by twisting the knife, but it wouldn't budge. Her mom told her to be careful and not hurt herself.
+
+Finally, after a few more tries, the knife came free and they were able to cut the pizza into clear slices. Lily was so excited to eat it, she gobbled it up in no time. From that day on, she always helped her mom cut the pizza and never forgot to twist the knife carefully.
+Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big pile of waste near the park. It had many things: cans, bottles, papers, clothes, toys.
+
+"Look, Tom, maybe we can find something fun in there," Lily said.
+
+"OK, let's go," Tom said.
+
+They ran to the waste pile and started to dig. They found a ball, a doll, a book, a hat. They were happy.
+
+But then, it started to rain. The rain was heavy and cold. It made the waste wet and dirty. It made Lily and Tom wet and dirty.
+
+"Let's go home, Lily, it's too wet here," Tom said.
+
+"No, I want to stay, I like the rain, it's sweet," Lily said.
+
+She licked the rain from her face. She did not know that the rain was not sweet. It was bad. It had dirt and germs from the waste. It made Lily sick.
+
+Tom went home. He told his mom what happened. His mom was angry and scared. She called Lily's mom. She told her to take Lily to the doctor.
+
+But it was too late. Lily was very sick. She had a fever, a cough, a pain in her tummy. She did not get better. She died.
+
+Tom was very sad. He missed his friend. He wished he had not played in the waste. He wished he had listened to his mom. He wished he had taken Lily home. He learned a hard lesson. He never played in the waste again.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their ball in the garden. They liked to roll the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they rolled the ball very fast and hard, and sometimes they rolled it very slow and soft.
+
+One day, they rolled the ball too hard and it flew over the fence. They heard a loud crash and saw some smoke. They ran to the fence and looked over. They saw their ball had hit the chimney of the house next door. The chimney was broken and some bricks had fallen off.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom said. "We broke the chimney! What will we do?"
+
+Lily was scared. She did not want to get in trouble. She said, "Maybe we can get our ball back and fix the chimney. Come on, let's go and see."
+
+They climbed over the fence and ran to the house. They saw a man coming out of the door. He looked angry and had some black dust on his face. He saw Tom and Lily and said, "Hey, you two! What are you doing here? Did you break my chimney?"
+
+Tom and Lily were very sorry. They said, "We are sorry, mister. We were playing with our ball and it hit your chimney. We did not mean to break it. Can we have our ball back, please?"
+
+The man looked at them and saw they were telling the truth. He was not so angry anymore. He said, "Well, I guess it was an accident. But you should be more careful next time. Here, take your ball and go home. And don't come back without asking."
+
+Tom and Lily thanked the man and took their ball. They climbed over the fence and went back to their garden. They decided to roll the ball more gently from then on. They did not want to break anything else.
+Lily is in class with her friends. They are learning about animals. The teacher has a big box. She says, "Do you want to see what is in the box?" The children say, "Yes, yes, yes!"
+
+The teacher opens the box. She takes out a small cage. Inside the cage, there is a bird. The bird is yellow and green. It has a long tail. It sings a pretty song. The children say, "Wow, wow, wow!"
+
+The teacher says, "This is a parakeet. It is a kind of bird. It can fly and talk. But it is very fragile. That means it can break easily. You have to be gentle and quiet with it. Do you want to touch it?" The children say, "Yes, yes, yes!"
+
+The teacher lets each child touch the bird. They are careful and soft. They say, "Hello, parakeet. You are so beautiful. We like you." The bird says, "Hello, hello, hello!"
+
+Lily is the last one to touch the bird. She is very happy. She says, "Can I hold it, please?" The teacher says, "No, Lily. The bird is too fragile. It might get scared or hurt. You can only touch it with one finger." Lily says, "But I want to hold it. Please, please, please!"
+
+Lily does not listen to the teacher. She grabs the cage. She tries to open it. The bird flaps its wings. It squawks loudly. The cage falls to the floor. The bird flies out of the cage. It flies around the room. The children scream. The teacher runs after the bird. Lily cries. She says, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
+Tim and Lily were friends who liked to play with toys. One day, they found a big box of crayons and paper in the classroom. They were very happy and wanted to draw many pictures.
+
+"Can I have the red crayon, please?" Lily asked Tim.
+
+"Sure, you can have it. We can share the crayons," Tim said. He was a cheerful boy who liked to be nice to others.
+
+They took turns using the crayons and drew many things: a house, a sun, a flower, a car, a cat, and a dog. They had a lot of fun and showed each other their pictures.
+
+But then, they saw that some of the crayons were broken and some of the paper was torn. They felt sad and sorry.
+
+"Who did this?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe someone was not careful with the crayons and paper. They made a lot of waste," Tim said.
+
+"That's not good. We should take care of the crayons and paper. They are for everyone to use and enjoy," Lily said.
+
+They decided to pick up the broken crayons and the torn paper and put them in the trash. They also put the good crayons and paper back in the box. They wanted to keep the classroom clean and tidy.
+
+They were proud of themselves for being helpful and responsible. They smiled and hugged each other.
+
+"We are good friends. We share and we don't waste," they said.
+Tim and Mia were playing with their toys in the living room when they heard a loud knock on the door. They ran to see who it was, but their mom told them to stay back.
+
+"It's your aunt Lisa, kids. She needs to talk to me for a bit. You can say hello, but then you have to go back to your toys, okay?"
+
+Tim and Mia nodded and went to the door. They saw their aunt Lisa, who looked very sad and angry. She had a big bag with her and a small dog.
+
+"Hello, aunt Lisa," Tim said. "Who is that?"
+
+"This is Sparky, my dog. He's the only friend I have left. Your uncle Tom and I had a big fight and he told me to leave. He was very mean and bitter. He doesn't love me anymore."
+
+Mia gasped and hugged her aunt. "I'm sorry, aunt Lisa. We love you. You can stay with us."
+
+Aunt Lisa smiled a little and hugged Mia back. "Thank you, sweetie. You're very kind. But I can't stay here for long. I have to find a new place to live. A place where Sparky and I can be happy."
