+They waited in line to order. When it was their turn, they told the ice cream man what they wanted. The ice cream man said, "I'm sorry, we have no chocolate or strawberry. We only have vanilla and mint."
+
+Tim and Amy were sad and angry. They did not like vanilla or mint. They wanted their favorite flavors. They said, "No, we want chocolate and strawberry. You have to give us what we want. It is important."
+
+The ice cream man said, "I can't give you what I don't have. You have to choose what I have or go away. You are being rude and making other people wait."
+
+Tim and Amy did not listen. They shouted and cried. They tried to grab the ice cream from the ice cream man. The ice cream man got mad. He said, "That's enough. You are not getting any ice cream. You are bad children. Go away now."
+
+He pushed them away from the counter. Tim and Amy fell on the ground. They hurt their knees and elbows. They dropped their money. The ice cream man took their money and put it in his pocket. He said, "This is for wasting my time and making a mess. Now go away and don't come back."
+
+Tim and Amy ran to their mom. They were still sad and angry. They told their mom what happened. Their mom was shocked and angry too. She said, "That was very wrong of the ice cream man. He should not have taken your money or pushed you. He should have been nice and patient. We will go to another ice cream shop and get you what you want. And we will tell the manager what he did."
+
+But when they got to the other ice cream shop, they saw a sign. It said, "Closed for the day. Sorry for the inconvenience." Tim and Amy did not get any ice cream that day. They learned a hard lesson. They should have been polite and flexible. They should have been happy with what they had. They should have said thank you and sorry. They should have been good children.

+"Hello, fox!" Lily says. "Do you want to play with us?"

+
+"Thank you, Lily and Ben," the fox says. "You are very kind. But I have to go now. I have to return to my home."
+
+"Where is your home, fox?" Ben asks.
+
+"My home is in the woods. I have a family there. They are waiting for me," the fox says.
+
+"Can we visit you, fox?" Lily asks.
+
+"Maybe, someday. But you have to be careful. The woods are not safe for you. There are other animals that are not nice. They might hurt you," the fox says.
+
+"OK, fox. We will be careful. We hope to see you again," Lily and Ben say.
+
+"Goodbye, Lily and Ben. You are my friends. I will remember you," the fox says.
+
+The fox runs away. Lily and Ben wave to the fox. They are happy. They have a new friend.

+
+One day, Tom and Spot hear a loud noise from the barn. They think it is a monster. They are scared, but they want to see what it is. They sneak to the barn and peek inside. They see a big tractor with a shiny metal scoop. It is making the noise.

+Tim and Jen are twins. They like to play in the yard. One day, they see a big truck stop in front of their house. The truck has a sign that says "mail". A man comes out of the truck. He has a bag of letters and boxes.
+
+"Look, Jen, it's the mail man!" Tim says. "Maybe he has something for us!"

+"Let's go see!" Jen says. They run to the fence and wave at the man.
+
+"Hello, kids!" the man says. "I have some mail for your mom and dad. Do you want to help me?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Tim and Jen say. They are very happy.
+
+The man gives them a letter and a box. He says, "This letter is from your grandma. She says she loves you and misses you. And this box is from your uncle. He sent you a surprise. Can you sign for it?"
+
+Tim and Jen look at the letter and the box. They do not know how to sign. They are scared. They do not want to make a mistake.
+
+"How do we sign?" Tim asks.
+
+"It's easy," the man says. "You just write your name on this paper. Like this." He shows them how to write Tim and Jen with a pen.
+
+Tim and Jen try to copy him. They write their names with big letters. They are very proud.
+
+"Good job, kids!" the man says. "You are very smart. Here is your mail. Have fun!"
+
+"Thank you, mail man!" Tim and Jen say. They take the letter and the box and run to the house. They want to show their mom and dad their mail. They are very excited.
+One day, Sam and Mia went to the park with their mom. They saw many flowers and trees and birds. They liked to run and play and laugh.
+
+"Look, Sam, a bee!" Mia said, pointing to a yellow and black insect. "It is making honey in the flower."
+
+Sam ran to the flower and tried to touch the bee. "I want to meet the bee," he said. "Maybe it will be my friend."
+
+But the bee did not want to be touched. It buzzed and flew away from Sam's hand. Sam followed the bee to another flower. He tried to touch it again.
+
+"Stop, Sam, stop!" Mia said. "The bee will sting you if you bother it. It will hurt a lot."
+
+Sam did not listen to Mia. He wanted to meet the bee. He ran faster and faster, until he saw a huge flower. The flower was bigger than Sam and Mia and their mom. It had many petals and a big hole in the middle.
+
+"Wow, a huge flower!" Sam said. "Maybe the bee is inside. I will go and see."
+
+Sam ran to the huge flower and climbed on it. He looked inside the hole. He saw something shiny and sticky. He smelled something sweet and yummy.
+
+"Honey!" Sam said. "The bee made honey in the huge flower. I want to taste it."
+
+But as soon as Sam said that, he heard a loud buzzing sound. He saw many bees coming out of the hole. They were angry and scared. They saw Sam on their flower and their honey.
+
+"Go away, go away!" the bees said. "This is our flower and our honey. You are not our friend. You are a thief."
+
+The bees flew to Sam and tried to sting him. Sam was scared and sorry. He jumped off the flower and ran to Mia and their mom. He cried and said he was sorry.
+
+"It's okay, Sam," Mia said. "You made a mistake. You did not know the bees did not want to meet you. You did not know the huge flower was their home. You learned something new today."
+
+"Yes, Sam," their mom said. "You learned that bees are not toys. They are living things that need respect and space. They work hard to make honey and they protect it. You should not touch them or their honey without their permission. Do you understand?"
+
+Sam nodded and said he understood. He said he was sorry to the bees and the huge flower. He said he would not bother them again. He said he would find another friend to meet.
+
+The end.
+Lily was very happy. Tomorrow was her birthday. She hoped to get a big cake and a new doll. She asked her mom, "Mom, can I have a cake and a doll for my birthday?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Maybe, Lily. You have to wait and see. But I have a surprise for you. We are going to the park tomorrow. You can play with your friends and have fun."
+
+Lily clapped her hands and said, "Yay! I love the park. Can I wear my pink dress?"
+
+Mom nodded and said, "Of course, Lily. You can wear your pink dress. It will be a mild day. Not too hot and not too cold. Just right for playing outside."
+
+Lily hugged her mom and said, "Thank you, Mom. You are the best. I can't wait for tomorrow. It will be the best birthday ever."
+Lily and Sam were twins who liked to play together. One day, they found a cheap toy in the store. It was a doll that could talk and sing. They wanted to buy it, but they did not have enough money.
+
+"Please, Mom, can we have the doll?" they asked.
+
+"Sorry, kids, we can't afford it. Maybe another time," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Sam were sad. They went home and prayed to God. They asked Him to help them get the doll. They said they would be good and share it.
+
+The next day, Mom had a surprise for them. She had found the same doll in a garage sale. It was very cheap, and it still worked. She gave it to Lily and Sam.
+
+"Wow, thank you, Mom! Thank you, God!" they said.
+
+They hugged Mom and the doll. They were very happy. They took turns playing with the doll. They made her talk and sing. They dressed her up and brushed her hair.
+
+They were having so much fun, they forgot to go to the bathroom. They felt a wetness in their pants. They looked at each other and blushed.
+
+"Oops, we need to go to the bathroom," they said.
+
+They ran to the bathroom and changed their clothes. They hoped Mom would not be mad. They prayed to God to forgive them. They said they would be more careful next time.
+Tim and Lily are brother and sister. They like to watch movies on the big TV. One night, they sneak out of bed and go to the living room. They find a movie with cars and planes and loud noises. They think it is fun and exciting.
+
+"Wow, look at that car!" Tim says. "It is so fast and shiny!"
+
+"I like the plane better," Lily says. "It can fly and do tricks!"
+
+They watch the movie for a long time. They do not hear their mom and dad come home. They do not see them walk into the living room. They do not notice them stand behind the couch.
+
+"Tim! Lily!" their mom says in a loud voice. "What are you doing? It is past your bedtime!"
+
+Tim and Lily jump and scream. They are scared and surprised. They turn around and see their mom and dad. They look angry and tired.
+
+"Sorry, mom, sorry, dad," Tim says. "We wanted to watch the movie. It is so cool and crazy!"
+
+"That movie is not for you," their dad says. "It is too loud and violent. You are too young for that. You need to sleep and have good dreams."
+
+He turns off the TV and takes the movie. He tells Tim and Lily to go back to bed. He says they will talk in the morning. He says he loves them, but he is not happy.
+
+Tim and Lily feel bad and sorry. They hug their mom and dad and say they love them too. They go back to bed and try to sleep. They hope their mom and dad will not be mad at them. They hope they will not have bad dreams. They hope they will watch a better movie next time.
+Ben and Mia were playing with blocks and glue. They wanted to make a big tower with many colors. Ben had a red block and Mia had a blue block. They both wanted to put their block on top of the tower.
+
+"Let me put my block first!" Ben said.
+
+"No, I want to put my block first!" Mia said.
+
+They both pushed and pulled the tower, but it was not strong. The glue was not dry yet. The tower fell down and the blocks and glue made a mess.
+
+"Oh no!" Ben and Mia said.
+
+They heard their mom coming. They were afraid she would be angry. They quickly tried to pick up the blocks and glue, but they were sticky and hard to move.
+
+"Ben, Mia, what are you doing?" Mom asked.
+
+She saw the mess and shook her head. She was not angry, but she was not happy either.
+
+"Mom, we are sorry. We wanted to make a big tower, but we fought over the blocks and the tower fell down," Ben said.
+
+"Mom, we are sorry. We did not wait for the glue to dry and the blocks and glue made a mess," Mia said.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. She was glad they told the truth.
+
+"It's okay, Ben and Mia. I know you like to play and create, but you need to learn to share and yield. Do you know what yield means?" Mom asked.
+
+Ben and Mia shook their heads. They did not know what yield means.
+
+"Yield means to let someone else go first or have something. It is a wise thing to do, because it shows you care and respect others. Do you want to be wise?" Mom asked.
+
+Ben and Mia nodded. They wanted to be wise.
+
+"Then next time, when you play with blocks and glue, or anything else, try to yield and take turns. That way, you can have more fun and less mess. Do you understand?" Mom asked.
+
+Ben and Mia nodded again. They understood.
+
+"Okay, then. Let's clean up this mess and then we can have a snack. How does that sound?" Mom asked.
+
+Ben and Mia smiled and said, "Yes, Mom!"
+
+They helped Mom clean up the blocks and glue. They learned a new word and a new lesson. They decided to yield and share more often. They were happy and wise.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a ball and a bike. They take turns to kick the ball and ride the bike.
+
+One day, they see a big dog in the park. The dog is brown and furry. It runs towards them and barks. Anna and Ben are scared. They drop the ball and the bike and run away.
+
+"Help! Help!" they shout. "The dog is chasing us!"
+
+They run to the other side of the park. There is a fence. They climb over the fence and hide behind a tree. The dog cannot follow them. It stops at the fence and whines.
+
+Anna and Ben are safe. They hug each other and breathe hard. They look at the fence. The fence separates them from the dog. They also look at the ball and the bike. The ball and the bike are on the other side of the fence. The dog is playing with them.
+
+"Oh no!" Anna says. "The dog has our ball and our bike!"
+
+"What can we do?" Ben asks. "We cannot get them back!"
+
+They are sad. They want their ball and their bike. They sit on the grass and wait.
+
+After a while, they see a man. The man is the dog's owner. He calls the dog and puts a leash on it. He sees the ball and the bike. He picks them up and walks towards the fence.
+
+"Hello!" he says. "Are these yours?"
+
+He smiles and gives the ball and the bike to Anna and Ben. He apologizes for the dog. He says the dog is friendly and just wanted to play.
+
+"Thank you!" Anna and Ben say. They are happy. They have their ball and their bike again.
+
+They wave goodbye to the man and the dog. They go back to their game. The sky is clear and blue. They have fun in the park.
+Ben liked to tie his shoes by himself. He learned how to make a loop and a knot from his mom. He felt proud when he could do it without help. He wanted to show his dad his new skill.
+
+One day, he heard a loud noise outside. It was thunder. He was scared of thunder. It made him jump and hide. He wanted his dad to hug him and tell him it was okay. He ran to his dad's room.
+
+But his dad was not there. He was at work. Ben saw a note on the bed. It said: "I love you, Ben. I will be back soon. Don't be afraid of the thunder. It is just noise. Be brave and have fun." Ben could not read the note. He did not know what it said. He thought it was a picture. He was ignorant of the words.
+
+He saw a pair of scissors on the table. He had an idea. He wanted to make the note more pretty. He cut the note into small pieces. He made a collage with the pieces. He used glue and tape. He was happy with his art.
+
+He waited for his dad to come home. He wanted to give him his art. He thought his dad would like it. He did not know he had destroyed his dad's note. He did not know he had done something bad. He was ignorant of his mistake.
+Lily and Sam are in the car with Mom. They are going to the park. Lily is happy. She likes the park. She likes the swings and the slide. Sam is sleepy. He yawns and rubs his eyes.
+
+"Are we there yet?" Lily asks Mom.
+
+"Soon, sweetie. Look, there is the big sign for the park." Mom points out the window.
+
+Lily looks and sees the sign. It has a picture of a tree and a flower. She smiles. She leans over and tries to wake up Sam.
+

+Sam opens his eyes and sees Lily. He groans and leans back. He does not want to go to the park. He wants to sleep.
+
+"Leave me alone, Lily. I'm tired." Sam says.
+
+"Come on, Sam. The park is fun. You can play with me. We can go on the swings and the slide. Please, Sam." Lily begs.
+
+Sam shakes his head. He does not like the swings and the slide. He thinks they are boring. He likes to read books and draw pictures.
+
+"No, Lily. I don't want to play. I want to read and draw. You go play. I'll stay in the car." Sam says.
+
+Mom hears Sam and Lily. She stops the car at the park. She turns around and looks at them.
+
+"Sam, you can't stay in the car. It's not safe. You have to come with me and Lily. You can bring your book and your crayons. Maybe you can find a nice spot to read and draw. But you have to get out of the car." Mom says.
+
+Sam sighs. He knows Mom is right. He does not want to make Mom angry. He gets out of the car. He takes his book and his crayons. He follows Mom and Lily to the park.
+
+Lily runs to the swings and the slide. She is happy. She sees other kids playing. She makes new friends. She has fun.

+Timmy liked to clap his hands. He clapped when he was happy, when he saw a bird, when he ate a cookie. He clapped so much that his mom and dad called him Clappy Timmy.
+
+One day, Timmy wanted to clap in the bathtub. He filled the tub with water and bubbles and got in. He clapped his hands and made splashes. He clapped his hands and made noises. He clapped his hands and had fun.
+
+But he did not see the black spider on the wall. The spider was scared of the noise and the water. The spider wanted to get away. The spider crawled down the wall and into the tub.
+
+Timmy saw the spider and screamed. He did not like spiders. He was afraid of spiders. He jumped out of the tub and ran to his mom and dad.
+
+"Mommy, Daddy, help! There is a spider in the tub!" he cried.
+
+Mom and Dad came to the bathroom and saw the spider. They took a cup and caught the spider. They took the spider outside and let it go.
+
+"Are you okay, Timmy?" Mom asked.
+
+"Yes, Mommy, I am okay. But I don't want to clap in the tub anymore," Timmy said.
+
+"That's okay, Timmy. You can clap somewhere else. How about we clap in the living room and watch a movie?" Dad suggested.
+
+"Okay, Daddy, that sounds good. Can we watch the one with the dinosaurs?" Timmy asked.
+
+"Sure, Timmy, we can watch the one with the dinosaurs. Come on, let's go," Dad said.
+
+Timmy dried himself and put on his pajamas. He followed his mom and dad to the living room. He clapped his hands and smiled. He was happy again. He liked to clap his hands. He was Clappy Timmy.
+Lila was very happy. She was going to the festival with her mom and dad. The festival had many fun things. There were balloons, games, music, and food. Lila liked festivals a lot.
+
+At the festival, Lila saw a girl who looked different. She had a big hat, a long dress, and many colors on her face. Lila was curious. She wanted to talk to the girl.
+
+"Hi, I am Lila. What is your name?" Lila asked.
+
+"Hi, I am Maya. I am from another country. I am here to dance at the festival." Maya said.
+
+"Wow, you look very pretty. Why do you have colors on your face?" Lila asked.
+
+"Thank you. The colors are part of my culture. They mean different things. For example, red means love, yellow means happiness, and green means nature." Maya explained.
+
+"That is very cool. I only have one color on my face. It is normal." Lila said.
+
+"Normal is good too. Everyone is different and special. Do you want to see me dance?" Maya asked.
+
+"Yes, please. I like to dance too." Lila said.

+Maya took Lila's hand and led her to the stage. They watched Maya's group perform a beautiful dance with music and costumes. Lila clapped and cheered. She was glad she met Maya. She learned something new and made a new friend.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. But they did not like to share. They always wanted the same toy or swing or bike.
+
+One day, they saw a big cross on the grass. It was made of wood and had colorful ribbons on it. They both ran to it and wanted to play with it.
+
+"Mine!" said Tom, grabbing the cross.
+
+"No, mine!" said Lily, pulling the cross.
+
+They started to fight and tug and shout. They were very loud and rude. They did not see the old man who was walking by. He had a long beard and a kind smile.
+
+He stopped and watched them for a while. Then he said, "Children, why are you fighting over this cross? Do you know what it means?"
+
+Tom and Lily stopped and looked at him. They did not know what he was talking about.
+
+The old man said, "This cross is a symbol of love and peace. It reminds us of how Jesus died for us and rose again. He taught us to be kind and forgiving and to share with others. He wants us to be happy and to make others happy too."
+
+Tom and Lily felt ashamed. They realized they were being selfish and mean. They said sorry to each other and to the old man.
+
+"Can we play with the cross together?" asked Tom.
+
+"Of course, you can," said the old man. "But be careful and gentle with it. It is not a toy, but a gift."
+
+He smiled and walked away.
+
+Tom and Lily set the cross on the ground. They took turns to touch the ribbons and to say thank you to Jesus. They felt a warm and happy feeling in their hearts. They learned to share and to be friends.
+Lily and Sam were playing with their toy planes in the garden. They liked to pretend they were pilots and fly to different places. Lily had a red plane and Sam had a blue plane.
+
+"Look, I'm going to the sun!" Sam said, making his plane go up in the air.
+
+"No, don't go there, it's too hot!" Lily said, worried. "Your plane will melt!"
+
+Sam laughed. "No, it won't, it's a special plane. It can go anywhere!"
+
+He flew his plane higher and higher, until it was very close to the sun. He felt the plane get warm in his hand.
+
+"See, I told you!" Lily shouted. "Your plane is melting! Come back!"
+
+Sam tried to bring his plane back, but it was too late. The sun was too strong and the plane melted in his hand. He was left with a blue blob of plastic.
+
+Sam started to cry. He liked his plane very much. He was sad and angry.
+
+"Lily, it's your fault! You made me go to the sun!" he said, throwing the blob at her.
+
+Lily dodged the blob and felt sorry for Sam. She knew he didn't mean it. She also liked his plane.
+
+"Sam, I'm sorry. I didn't make you go to the sun. You wanted to go. I was just trying to help you." she said, gently.
+
+She picked up her red plane and offered it to Sam.
+
+"Here, you can have my plane. It's nice and cool. We can share it and be pilots together." she said, smiling.
+
+Sam looked at her and stopped crying. He saw that she was being nice and kind. He took her plane and hugged her.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. I'm sorry I was mean to you." he said, smiling back.
+
+They hugged and played with the red plane together. They flew to the moon, the stars, and the clouds. They had fun and forgot about the sun. They were happy pilots.

+Sam and Mia were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big flag on a pole near their house. The flag had many colors and shapes on it. It was waving in the wind.
+
+"Look, Sam, a flag!" Mia said. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Yes, it is!" Sam said. "Do you know what it means?"
+
+Mia shook her head. She did not know.
+
+"Me neither," Sam said. "But maybe we can find out. Let's go closer and see."

+They ran to the flag pole and looked up. The flag was very high and big. They could hear it flap and rustle.
+
+"Wow, it is so cool!" Mia said. "It makes me excite!"
+
+"Me too!" Sam said. "But be careful, Mia. Don't touch the pole. It might be hot or sharp."
+
+"OK, Sam, I won't," Mia said. "But can we stay here and watch the flag for a while?"
+
+"Sure, Mia, we can," Sam said. "We can pretend we are on a boat or a plane and the flag is our sign."
+
+They smiled and nodded. They sat on the grass and watched the flag. They made up stories and songs about the flag. They had a lot of fun. They felt fine.
+Tom and Lily like to play in the garden. They have a big squash plant that grows many squashes. They like to pick the squashes and eat them. They are very yummy.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily see a big squash that is bigger than their heads. They want to pick it and share it. But the squash is too high for them. They cannot reach it.
+
+They try to stand on a chair, but the chair is too wobbly. They try to stand on a box, but the box is too small. They try to stand on each other, but they fall down. They are very upset. They want the big squash.
+
+Then they see their dad coming home. He is very tall. He can reach the big squash. They run to him and ask him to help them. He smiles and lifts them up. They grab the big squash and hug it. They are very happy.
+
+They thank their dad and take the big squash inside. They cut it and cook it. They make a big squash soup. They invite their dad to join them. They eat the big squash soup and enjoy it. They are very full. They are very proud. They are very sleepy. They go to bed and dream of squashes.
+Tom and Sam were playing with their toy rockets in the backyard. They liked to pretend they were astronauts and explore the stars. They had two rockets, one red and one blue, and they took turns to launch them in the air.
+
+"Look, my rocket is faster than yours!" Tom said, as he pushed the button on his red rocket. The rocket flew high and made a loud noise.
+
+"No, mine is better!" Sam said, as he pushed the button on his blue rocket. The rocket also flew high, but then it started to spin and fall.
+
+"Oh no, your rocket is broken!" Tom said, as he ran to catch the blue rocket. He looked at it and saw that the tip was cracked and the wings were bent.
+
+"Can we fix it?" Sam asked, with a sad face.
+
+"I don't think so," Tom said, shaking his head. "But maybe we can replace it with something else."
+
+He looked around and saw a big stick on the ground. He picked it up and said, "Here, this can be your new rocket. It's longer and stronger than the old one."
+
+Sam took the stick and looked at it. He was not sure if he liked it. It did not have a button or a noise or a color. It was just a stick.
+
+"But this is not a rocket, this is a stick," he said, frowning.
+
+"It is a rocket if you use your imagination," Tom said, smiling. "Watch, I'll show you."
+
+He took the stick from Sam and held it in his hand. He made a whoosh sound with his mouth and threw the stick in the air. The stick flew like a missile and landed far away.
+
+"Wow, that was amazing!" Sam said, clapping his hands. "Can I try?"
+
+"Sure, you can," Tom said, as he gave the stick back to Sam. "But be careful, don't hit anyone or anything with it."
+
+Sam nodded and held the stick in his hand. He also made a whoosh sound and threw the stick in the air. The stick flew like a missile and landed on the roof of the house.
+
+"Uh oh, that was not good," Tom said, as he looked at the stick on the roof. "How are we going to get it back?"
+
+"I don't know," Sam said, as he looked at the stick on the roof. "We can't reach it, we are too small."
+
+They felt helpless and sad. They had lost their blue rocket and their stick missile. They wished they had their rockets back. They decided to go inside and ask their mom for help. Maybe she could get the stick from the roof and buy them a new rocket. They hoped she would not be mad at them. They learned their lesson. They would not throw sticks in the air again.
+Anna and Ben were twins who loved to play together. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big teddy bear that their grandma gave them. They named him Brownie and took him everywhere.
+
+One Sunday, they went to church with their mom and dad. They brought Brownie with them and sat on a bench. They tried to be quiet and listen, but they got bored. They whispered to each other and made Brownie talk.
+
+"Hello, I am Brownie. I like church. Do you like church?" Anna said, moving Brownie's mouth.
+
+"No, I don't. Church is long and boring. I want to play. Let's go outside," Ben said, holding Brownie's paw.
+
+They got up and sneaked out of the door. They ran to the playground and had fun. They slid, swung, and climbed. They forgot about church and time.
+
+But then, they heard a loud noise. It was a big dog that came from the street. He saw Brownie and ran towards him. He grabbed him with his teeth and shook him. He tore his fur and stuffing.
+
+"Brownie!" Anna and Ben cried. They ran to the dog and tried to get Brownie back. But the dog was stronger and meaner. He growled and snapped at them.
+
+"Help! Help!" Anna and Ben shouted. Their mom and dad heard them and came out of the church. They saw the dog and the teddy bear. They scared the dog away and hugged their children.
+
+"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Anna and Ben sobbed. They looked at Brownie. He was ruined. His eyes were gone, his nose was ripped, his arms and legs were loose. He was not a teddy bear anymore.
+
+"Mom, dad, the dog spoiled Brownie. He was our best friend. We loved him so much," Anna and Ben said.
+
+Mom and dad felt sorry for them. They knew how much they loved Brownie. They also knew they should not have left the church.
+
+"Anna, Ben, we understand. Brownie was adorable. He was a special gift from grandma. But you should not have run away from church. Church is important. It is where we learn about God and thank him for everything. You should have stayed with us and listened," mom and dad said.
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They knew they did wrong. They said sorry to mom and dad and to God. They asked God to forgive them and to help them be good.
+
+Mom and dad smiled. They forgave them and kissed them. They said they would try to fix Brownie or get them a new one. They said they loved them very much.
+
+Anna and Ben hugged them and thanked them. They said they loved them too. They said they would try to be good and listen in church. They said they hoped Brownie would be okay. They said they would always remember him.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play on the farm. The farm has many animals. Anna and Ben like to feed the animals.
+
+One day, they see a new animal. It is big and black and white. It has four legs and a long tail. It makes a loud sound: "Moo!"
+
+"What is that?" Anna asks.
+
+"That is a cow," Ben says. "My dad owns the cow. He bought it from the market. The cow gives us milk."
+
+"Can we touch the cow?" Anna asks.
+
+"Yes, but be careful. The cow is strong and heavy. And its hair is thick and rough. You have to be gentle with the cow," Ben says.
+
+Anna and Ben walk slowly to the cow. They say hello to the cow. The cow looks at them and moos. Anna and Ben touch the cow's hair. It feels thick and rough. They also touch the cow's nose. It feels wet and soft.
+
+The cow likes Anna and Ben. It licks their hands with its tongue. Anna and Ben laugh. They give the cow some grass and hay. The cow eats happily.
+
+Anna and Ben are happy too. They have a new friend. They like the cow. They say thank you to the cow and to Ben's dad. They go back to play with the other animals.
+Lily and Ben like to play on the swing in the park. They take turns to push each other and go high in the air. They laugh and have fun.
+
+One day, a nosy dog comes to the park. He sees the swing and wants to play too. He runs to the swing and jumps on it. He barks and wags his tail.
+
+Lily and Ben are scared of the dog. They run away from the swing and hide behind a tree. They hope the dog will go away soon.
+
+But the dog does not go away. He makes the swing dirty with his paws and his fur. He chews on the ropes and the seat. He makes holes and tears.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They love the swing and do not want it to be broken. They wish they had a way to make the dog leave.
+
+Then they see a man with a bucket and a sponge. He is the park cleaner. He comes to the swing and sees the dog. He says, "Hey, you! Get off the swing! You are making a mess!"
+
+The dog is afraid of the man. He jumps off the swing and runs away. He does not want to be cleaned.
+
+The man cleans the swing with the bucket and the sponge. He makes it shiny and smooth again. He fixes the holes and the tears.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They thank the man and give him a hug. They go back to the swing and play again. They are careful to keep the swing clean. They do not want another nosy dog to spoil their fun.
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. The park has a big swing. Sara and Ben take turns on the swing. They push each other and laugh.
+
+One day, the sky is gray and the wind is cold. Sara and Ben do not want to go to the park. They stay at home and feel bored.
+
+"Let's make something," Sara says.
+
+"Like what?" Ben asks.
+
+"Like a swing," Sara says.
+
+"A swing? How can we make a swing?" Ben says.
+
+Sara thinks for a moment. She sees a big box, a rope, and a pillow. She has an idea.
+
+"Come, I'll show you," Sara says.
+
+Sara and Ben work together. They cut a hole in the box. They tie the rope to the box. They put the pillow in the box. They hang the box from the ceiling.
+
+"Look, we made a swing!" Sara says.
+
+"Wow, that's cool!" Ben says.
+
+They climb into the box and swing back and forth. They feel happy and warm.
+
+They forget about the gray sky and the cold wind. They have fun with their swing. They are proud of what they made.
+Mia and Leo are twins. They like to play with their toys and books. But sometimes they fight over them. One day, Mia wants to read a book about animals. Leo wants to read the same book. They both pull the book hard. The book tears in half. Mia and Leo are sad and angry. They cry and yell.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She sees the torn book and the twins. She is not happy. She tells them to stop crying and yelling. She tells them to say sorry to each other and to the book. She tells them to share and be humble. She tells them that humble means to not think you are better than others.
+
+Mia and Leo listen to Mom. They say sorry to each other and to the book. They hug and make up. They decide to share the book. They take turns reading the pages. They learn about different animals. They have fun and laugh. They are humble and happy. Mom smiles and hugs them. She is proud of her twins.
+Sara and Tom were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had a big bucket and a small shovel. They wanted to carry some earth to their sandbox and make a castle.
+
+"Look, Sara, I found a worm!" Tom said, holding up his shovel.
+
+"Yuck, Tom, put it down!" Sara said, making a face.
+
+"No, it is my friend. I will carry it to the sandbox too. Maybe it will make us famous. Maybe people will come and see our worm castle," Tom said, smiling.
+
+Sara did not like Tom's idea, but she did not want to fight. She carried her bucket of earth to the sandbox and started to make a wall. Tom followed her with his shovel and his worm.
+
+"Tom, be careful, don't drop the worm!" Sara said, as she saw Tom swing his shovel.
+
+But it was too late. Tom tripped on a rock and fell. His shovel flew out of his hand and hit Sara on the head. Sara screamed and dropped her bucket. The earth and the worm spilled on the ground.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Sara cried, holding her head.
+
+"Sorry, sorry, sorry!" Tom said, getting up.
+
+But Sara was very angry. She pushed Tom and ran to the house. She told their mom what happened. Mom was not happy. She scolded Tom and gave Sara a band-aid.
+
+Tom felt bad. He lost his worm and his sister. He looked at the sandbox. It was empty and sad. He wished he had not carried the worm. He wished he had listened to Sara. He wished he had a castle. He wished he had a friend.

+
+Lily and Ben tell her what happened. They say they are sorry. They say they were playing on the slide.
+
+The teacher is not angry. She is kind. She says, "It's okay, Lily and Ben. Accidents happen. You can fix your basket. You can find new healthy things. You can do your task again. But first, let's go to the nurse. She will check if you are hurt. She will make you feel better. She will give you a healthy snack."
+
+Lily and Ben smile. They are not sad anymore. They go with their teacher. They fix their basket. They find new healthy things. They do their task again. They are proud. They are healthy. They are happy.
+Lily woke up in the morning and saw a new toy on her bed. It was a soft bear with a red bow. She hugged it and smiled. She wondered who gave it to her.
+
+She ran to the kitchen where her mom and dad were having breakfast. She showed them the bear and asked, "Who gave me this?"
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "It was a surprise from your grandma. She came by last night when you were sleeping and left it for you. She loves you very much."
+
+Lily was happy and said, "Thank you, grandma! I love her too. Can I call her and say thank you?"
+
+Her dad nodded and said, "Of course, sweetie. She would love to hear from you. But first, let's have some breakfast. You must be hungry."
+
+Lily agreed and sat down with her mom and dad. She ate some cereal and milk and then asked for the phone. She dialed her grandma's number and waited.
+
+"Hello?" her grandma's voice said.
+
+"Hi, grandma! It's me, Lily. I got your bear. He's so soft and cute. I love him. Thank you, grandma!" Lily said.
+
+Her grandma was happy and said, "You're welcome, Lily. I'm glad you like him. I saw him in the store and thought of you. He's your new friend. What's his name?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment and then said, "His name is Bobo. He likes to hug and play. He's my best friend."
+
+Her grandma laughed and said, "That's a nice name. Bobo sounds like a fun bear. I'm sure you'll have a lot of adventures together. I love you, Lily. Have a good day."
+
+Lily said, "I love you too, grandma. Have a good day. Bye bye."

+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they find a big white bag in the park. They wonder what is inside.
+
+"Let's imagine what is in the bag," Anna says. "Maybe it is a toy, or a cake, or a hat."
+
+"Or maybe it is a dragon, or a star, or a rainbow," Ben says. They laugh and make funny noises.
+
+They open the bag and look inside. They see many books with pictures and words. They are happy and surprised.
+
+"Wow, look at all these books," Anna says. "We can read them and learn new things."
+
+"Or we can imagine our own stories," Ben says. "We can be heroes, or animals, or anything we want."
+
+They take out some books and sit on the grass. They read and imagine together. They have fun and forget about the time. They are glad they found the white bag.
+Tom and Mia were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big bag of beans on a bench. They were curious and wanted to try them.
+
+"Look, beans!" Tom said. "Let's eat some. Maybe they are yummy."
+
+"I don't know, Tom," Mia said. "We don't know who left them here. Maybe they are bad for us."
+
+"Don't be silly, Mia," Tom said. "Beans are good. They make you strong and fast. Come on, just one."
+
+Tom took a handful of beans and put them in his mouth. He chewed and swallowed. He felt a strange feeling in his tummy. He smiled and said, "See, Mia? They are good. I feel great. I feel like I can speed."
+
+He ran around the park, faster and faster. He felt like he was flying. He laughed and shouted, "Whee! This is fun! Come on, Mia, join me!"
+
+Mia was worried. She saw Tom run too fast. She saw him run into the street. She saw a big car coming. She screamed, "Tom, stop! Car!"
+
+But Tom did not hear her. He did not see the car. He was too busy speeding. The car hit him. He flew in the air. He landed on the ground. He did not move. He did not laugh. He did not speed.
+
+Mia ran to him. She cried and cried. She wished she could help him. She wished he had listened to her. She wished they had not eaten the unknown beans.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not eat things that you do not know. They might be dangerous. Listen to your friends who care for you. Speeding is not always fun. It can hurt you.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big pile of mud near the pond. They run to the mud and start to make balls with their hands.
+
+"Look, I made a mud ball!" Anna says. She throws the mud ball in the air and catches it.
+
+"Me too!" Ben says. He throws his mud ball at a tree and it sticks to the trunk.
+
+They laugh and make more mud balls. They throw them at the trees, the rocks, and the ducks. The ducks quack and swim away.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" a voice says. Anna and Ben turn around and see a girl with purple hair. She is wearing a purple dress and purple shoes. She looks angry.
+
+"You are making a mess!" the girl says. "You are ruining my purple dress and my purple shoes!"
+
+Anna and Ben are scared. They did not see the girl before. They did not mean to hit her with mud.
+
+"We are sorry," Anna says. "We were just playing."
+
+"Playing with mud is not fun," the girl says. "It is dirty and gross. You should play with something else."
+
+"Like what?" Ben asks.
+
+"Like this," the girl says. She takes out a purple ball from her purple bag. She throws the ball at Anna and Ben. The ball bounces off their heads and lands in the mud.
+
+Anna and Ben look at the ball. It is covered with mud. They look at the girl. She is smiling.
+
+"See? That is fun," the girl says. "Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They pick up the ball and wipe off the mud. They throw the ball to the girl. She catches it and throws it back.
+
+They play with the ball and the mud. They become friends. They have fun.
+Tim and Lily were playing in their room. They liked to pretend they were spies and look for clues. They opened every drawer and box they could find. They found some toys, some books, some clothes, and some papers.
+
+"Look, Tim, I found a map!" Lily said, holding a sheet of paper with some lines and dots on it. "Maybe it leads to a treasure!"
+
+"Let me see!" Tim said, grabbing the paper from Lily. He looked at it and saw a big X in the corner. "Maybe it's in the basement. Let's go and see!"
+
+They ran out of their room and down the stairs. They opened the door to the basement and saw a dark and dusty room. They turned on the light and saw some old furniture, some boxes, and some tools.
+
+"Where is the X?" Lily asked, looking around.
+
+"Maybe it's behind that big drawer," Tim said, pointing to a wooden chest. "Let's move it and see!"
+
+They pushed and pulled the drawer, but it was very heavy. They tried harder and harder, until they heard a loud crack. The drawer broke and fell on top of them. They screamed and cried, but no one heard them. They were trapped under the drawer and could not get out.
+
+They wished they had not played with the map. They wished they had stayed in their room. They wished someone would rescue them. But no one came.
+Sam and Lily are playing with a big box. They want to make a car with the box. They have wheels, a steering wheel, and a horn. But they need something to connect the horn to the steering wheel.
+
+"Look, I have a wire!" Sam says. He shows Lily a long, thin, metal thing. "We can use this to make the horn work."
+
+"Good idea, Sam!" Lily says. She helps Sam make a hole in the box. They put the wire through the hole. They tie one end of the wire to the horn and the other end to the steering wheel.
+
+"Now we can honk the horn when we drive the car!" Sam says. He gets inside the box and holds the steering wheel. Lily gets behind the box and pushes it.
+
+"Are you ready, Sam?" Lily asks.
+
+"I'm ready, Lily!" Sam says. He turns the steering wheel and honks the horn. "Beep beep!"
+
+They have fun driving the car around the room. They pretend to go to the park, the zoo, and the moon. They laugh and smile. They are happy. They like playing with the wire.
+Lily liked to build with blocks. She had many blocks of different colors and shapes. She could make towers, bridges, houses, and anything she wanted. She was very good at building.
+
+One day, she wanted to make a big structure with all her blocks. She worked hard and used all her blocks. She made a tall tower with a bridge and a house on top. She was very proud of her structure. It was amazing.
+
+She wanted to show her mom and dad her structure. She called them to come and see. But when they came, they did not see her structure. They saw a big mess of blocks on the floor. Lily's little brother, Max, had knocked down her structure. He was playing with the blocks and did not know they were Lily's structure.
+
+Lily was very sad and angry. She cried and shouted at Max. Max cried too. He did not mean to make Lily sad. He just wanted to play with the blocks. Mom and dad tried to calm them down. They said they were sorry and they hugged them.
+
+Lily sighed. She knew Max did not do it on purpose. But she was still sad. She had worked so hard on her structure. She did not want to build it again. She wanted to do something else. She asked mom and dad if they could go to the park. They said yes. They helped Lily and Max clean up the blocks. Then they went to the park. Lily and Max played on the swings, the slide, and the sandbox. They had fun. Lily forgot about her structure. She was happy.

+
+One day, Jen and Tom see a new car in the toy store. It is shiny and big and has lights and sounds. It is the most attractive car they have ever seen. They both want it very much. They ask their moms to buy it for them.
+
+But their moms say no. They say the car is too expensive and they already have enough cars. Jen and Tom are sad and angry. They decide to take the car without paying. They think they are very clever and no one will notice.
+
+They wait until the store is busy and then they grab the car and run out. They zoom away with their new car, feeling very happy and proud. They think they have success.
+
+But they are wrong. The store manager sees them and calls the police. The police catch them and take them back to the store. They scold them and make them return the car. They also call their moms and tell them what they did.
+
+Their moms are very disappointed and angry. They take them home and punish them. They take away all their cars and make them stay in their rooms. They also make them apologize to the store manager and the police.
+
+Jen and Tom are very sorry and ashamed. They wish they had not taken the car. They realize they were not clever or successful, but foolish and wrong. They learn a hard lesson. They lose their cars and their fun. They have a bad ending.
+Lily liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Velvet. Velvet had a soft dress and long hair. Lily liked to brush her hair and make her talk.
+
+One day, Lily decided to make Velvet marry her other doll, Ben. Ben was polite and had a nice hat. Lily put a ring on Velvet's finger and said, "Do you want to marry Ben, Velvet?"
+
+"Yes, I do," Velvet said in Lily's voice.
+
+"Then you are married," Lily said. She clapped her hands and hugged her dolls.
+
+But then, Lily's brother Tom came into the room. He saw Lily's dolls and grabbed them. He said, "These are my dolls now. You can't have them."
+
+Lily was very sad and angry. She said, "No, Tom, give them back. They are mine. They are married."
+
+Tom laughed and said, "No, they are not. They are just toys. And I want them." He ran away with the dolls.
+
+Lily cried and cried. She wanted her dolls back. She wanted Velvet and Ben to be happy. But Tom was mean and did not care. He broke the dolls and threw them in the trash. Lily never saw them again.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run, jump and slide on the grass and the swings. They saw a big tree with many green leaves. They wanted to pick some leaves and make a picture with them.
+
+They ran to the tree and reached for the leaves. But the tree was too tall and they could not get any. They tried to jump and climb, but they still could not reach. They felt sad and angry.
+
+"Why are you so mean, tree?" Lily shouted. "We just want some leaves to play with!"
+
+The tree did not answer. It just shook its branches and made a rustling sound.
+
+Lily and Ben started to weep. They sat on the ground and cried. They did not want to play anymore.
+
+A squirrel was watching them from the tree. He felt sorry for them. He liked to play with the leaves too. He had a big pile of them in his nest. He decided to share some with the children.
+
+He ran down the tree and picked up a leaf in his mouth. He ran to Lily and dropped the leaf in front of her. Lily stopped weeping and looked at the leaf. It was yellow and red and had a funny shape. She smiled and said, "Thank you, squirrel. You are very kind."
+
+The squirrel ran back to the tree and picked up another leaf. He ran to Ben and dropped the leaf in front of him. Ben stopped weeping and looked at the leaf. It was brown and orange and had a smooth edge. He smiled and said, "Thank you, squirrel. You are very clever."
+
+The squirrel ran back and forth and brought more leaves to Lily and Ben. They had many different colors and sizes and patterns. They were very pretty and fun to play with. Lily and Ben made a picture with the leaves on the grass. They made a sun, a flower, a house and a car. They were very happy and proud.
+
+The squirrel watched them from the tree. He was happy too. He thought they were adorable. He said, "You are welcome, children. You are very creative."
+Sara and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big round thing that can turn. It has seats and horses and cars on it. Sara and Ben want to go on it.
+
+"Can we go on the round thing, Mom?" Sara asks.
+
+"Sure, but you have to hold my hand and wait in line," Mom says.
+
+Sara and Ben hold Mom's hand and wait in line. They see other kids on the round thing. They look happy and excited. Sara and Ben want to be happy and excited too.
+
+When it is their turn, Mom helps them get on the round thing. Sara chooses a pink horse and Ben chooses a blue car. Mom sits next to them and buckles them up.
+
+"Are you ready?" Mom asks.
+
+"Yes!" Sara and Ben say.
+
+The round thing starts to turn. It goes faster and faster. Sara and Ben feel the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They see the park and the trees and the sky. They go up and down and around and around.
+
+"Whee!" Sara and Ben say.
+
+They feel high and free and fun. They wave to Mom and smile. They love the round thing. They want to go on it again and again.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with boats. They have a big tub of water in the garden. They put their boats in the water and make them sail.
+
+Tom has a red boat. It is new and shiny. Sam has a blue boat. It is old and cheap. Tom says his boat is better than Sam's boat. Sam says his boat is faster than Tom's boat. They start to fight.
+
+"Your boat is slow and ugly!" Tom shouts.
+
+"Your boat is silly and weak!" Sam shouts back.
+
+They push and pull each other's boats. They splash water on each other. They make angry noises.
+
+Mum hears them fighting. She comes to the garden. She sees the mess. She is not happy.
+
+"Stop fighting, boys!" Mum says. "You are making a big mess. And you are hurting your boats. Boats are for playing, not for fighting."
+
+Tom and Sam stop fighting. They look at their boats. They see they have scratches and dents. They feel sorry.
+
+"Sorry, Mum," Tom says.
+
+"Sorry, Mum," Sam says.
+
+Mum smiles. She hugs them.
+
+"It's OK, boys," Mum says. "But you need to be nice to each other. And to your boats. Why don't you share your boats and play together?"
+
+Tom and Sam nod. They say sorry to each other. They swap their boats. They sail them to the port. The port is a corner of the tub. They pretend to load and unload cargo. They make happy noises.
+
+Mum watches them. She is glad. She thinks they are good brothers. She thinks they have good boats. She thinks they have fun.
+Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big balloon in the sky. It is red and yellow and blue. It is very attractive.
+
+"Wow, look at the balloon!" Ben says. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Yes, it is!" Lily says. "I want to touch it!"
+
+They run after the balloon. But the balloon is too high. It rises and rises in the air. Ben and Lily cannot catch it.
+
+"Come back, balloon!" Ben shouts. "We want to play with you!"
+
+But the balloon does not hear them. It flies away with the wind. Ben and Lily are sad. They stop running.
+
+"Maybe we can find another balloon," Lily says. "Or we can play with something else."
+
+She looks around. She sees a swing, a slide, and a sandbox. She smiles.
+
+"Let's go to the swing!" she says. "It is fun!"
+
+"Okay!" Ben says. He smiles too. He takes Lily's hand. They run to the swing.
+
+They forget about the balloon. They have fun on the swing. They laugh and sing. They are happy. They are friends.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to go to the park with Mom and Dad. The park has a big slide, a swing, and a sandbox. Tom and Lily have fun playing there.
+
+One day, they see a train near the park. The train is long and loud. It has many cars with windows and doors. Tom and Lily want to see the train up close. They ask Mom and Dad if they can go.
+
+Mom and Dad say yes, but they have to be careful. They hold Tom and Lily's hands and walk to the train. They see a man in a blue hat. He is the train driver. He smiles and waves at them.
+
+The train driver says they can sit in the train for a while. He shows them a rail inside the train. The rail is for holding on when the train moves. He says they can sit on the seats near the rail. The seats are soft and comfortable.
+
+Tom and Lily sit on the seats and look out the windows. They see the park, the trees, and the birds. They feel the train rumble and shake. They hear the train whistle and horn. They are happy and excited. They thank the train driver for letting them sit in the train. They say goodbye and go back to the park with Mom and Dad. They have a great day.
+Lily and Tom went to the shop with Mom. They wanted to buy a toy. Lily saw a doll with a pink dress. Tom saw a car with big wheels. They both liked the toys very much.
+
+"Mom, can I have the doll?" Lily asked.
+
+"Mom, can I have the car?" Tom asked.
+
+Mom looked at the toys. They were very expensive. She shook her head.
+
+"No, my loves, we can't buy these toys. They are too much money. We have to buy food and clothes and other things we need," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom felt sad. They wanted the toys so badly. They started to cry.
+
+"Please, Mom, please!" they begged.
+
+A man who worked at the shop heard them. He was old and mean. He had a big nose and a small mouth. He did not like children. He came to them and said in a loud voice:
+
+"Stop crying, you little brats! You are making a lot of noise. If you don't stop, I will call the police and they will take you away. That is a threat!"
+
+Lily and Tom were scared. They stopped crying. They hugged Mom. Mom was angry. She looked at the man and said in a calm voice:
+
+"That is not a nice way to talk to children. You should be ashamed of yourself. You are not a good person. You are a bully. We will not buy anything from your shop. Come on, Lily and Tom, let's go."
+
+Mom took Lily and Tom by the hand and walked out of the shop. They saw another shop across the street. It had a sign that said: "Toys for all. Cheap and cheerful." They smiled. They went to the other shop. They found nice toys that they could afford. They bought them and went home happy.
+Sam and Lily are twins. They like to play with their toys. But sometimes they fight over them. Sam has a red car. Lily has a blue doll. Sam wants to play with the doll. Lily wants to play with the car.
+
+Sam tries to take the doll from Lily. Lily says no. She holds the doll tight. Sam gets angry. He pokes Lily with his finger. Lily cries. She pokes Sam back. They poke each other harder and harder.
+
+Mom hears them. She comes to see what is wrong. She sees them poking and crying. She is not happy. She takes the doll and the car away. She says they have to share. She gives them each a sock. She says they can play with the sock.
+
+Sam and Lily do not like the sock. They are jealous of the doll and the car. They do not want to play with the sock. They throw the sock on the floor. They sit in the corner. They are sad and mad. They do not talk to each other. They have no fun. The end.
+Sara liked to visit her grandma's house. Grandma had many nice things, like a big garden, a soft bed, and a cozy armchair. Grandma was wealthy, but she was also kind and generous. She always gave Sara cookies and hugs.
+
+One day, Sara saw that the armchair was broken. The cushion was torn and the leg was wobbly. Sara felt sad, because she loved to sit on the armchair with grandma and read stories. She asked grandma, "Can we fix the armchair, please?"
+
+Grandma smiled and said, "Of course, my dear. We can fix anything with some love and glue. Let's go to the garage and find what we need." She took Sara by the hand and led her to the garage, where they found some fabric, some glue, and some nails.
+
+They worked together to fix the armchair. Sara helped grandma cut the fabric, spread the glue, and hammer the nails. They had fun and talked and laughed. When they were done, they carried the armchair back to the living room. It looked new and beautiful.
+
+Sara and grandma hugged and thanked each other. They sat on the armchair and read a story. Sara felt happy and proud. She had learned how to fix something with grandma. She had also learned that the best things in life are not the things you have, but the people you love.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys, but sometimes they fight. One day, they both want to play with the same car. Anna says, "It is my car. I had it first." Ben says, "No, it is my car. I like it more." They pull and tug on the car, but it does not break.
+
+Mom hears them fight. She comes to their room and sees the car. She says, "Stop fighting, Anna and Ben. You can share the car. It has four wheels and two seats. You can take turns to drive and ride." She shows them how to buckle the seat belts on the car. She says, "Buckle up, it is safer."
+
+Anna and Ben listen to Mom. They decide to share the car. Anna drives first, and Ben rides. Then they switch. They have fun with the car. They say, "Thank you, Mom, for teaching us how to buckle up and share." Mom smiles and says, "You are welcome, Anna and Ben. You are humble and kind. I am proud of you." She hugs them and kisses them. They hug and kiss her back. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing in their room. They had many toys, but they liked to play with their mom's things. They found a shiny object on the dresser. It was a ring with a big stone. It was very expensive.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Tom said. "It is so pretty and sparkly. Let's play with it."
+
+"OK, but we have to be careful. Mom will be angry if she sees us," Lily said. "Let's hide it somewhere."
+
+They took the ring and ran to the closet. They found a box with old clothes and put the ring inside. Then they closed the box and the closet door.
+
+They forgot about the ring and played with other toys. They had fun until mom came home.
+
+"Hi, kids. How was your day?" mom asked.
+
+"Good, mom. We played a lot," Lily said.
+
+"Did you play with your toys or with my things?" mom asked.
+
+Lily and Tom looked at each other. They remembered the ring. They felt guilty.
+
+"Mom, we are sorry. We played with your ring. It was so shiny and we liked it. But we hid it in the closet. We can show you," Tom said.
+
+Mom was surprised and angry. She went to the closet and opened the box. She saw the ring. It was scratched and dirty.
+
+"Oh, no. This is my ring. It was a gift from your dad. It is very expensive and special. You should not play with it. You could have lost it or broken it. You should respect my things and ask me before you touch them," mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom felt bad. They knew they did wrong.
+
+"Mom, we are very sorry. We did not know it was a gift. We did not mean to hurt it. We will not play with your things again. Please forgive us," Lily said.
+
+Mom was still angry, but she loved her kids. She hugged them and said, "I forgive you, but you have to learn from this. You have to be honest and careful with other people's things. They may have a lot of value and meaning for them. You have to ask for permission and say thank you. And you have to play with your own toys. They are also nice and fun."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They said, "Yes, mom. We understand. We love you."
+
+They gave mom the ring and said, "We are sorry. We hope you can fix it."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Thank you. I will try. I love you too."
+
+They learned their lesson and never played with mom's things again. They played with their toys and had fun. They were happy and good kids.
+Ben and Sam are friends. They like to play with toys. They have a big tank. The tank is heavy and green. It can make loud noises and shoot balls.
+
+One day, they take the tank to the park. They find a hill and put the tank on top. They pretend the tank is in a war. They say, "Boom! Boom! We are the best soldiers!"
+
+But then, they see a dog. The dog is big and brown. It runs to the tank and barks. It wants to play too. It bites the tank and shakes it. The tank falls off the hill and breaks. The balls roll away.
+
+Ben and Sam are sad. They cry and say, "No! No! Our tank is gone! Bad dog! Go away!"
+
+The dog is sorry. It does not want to make them cry. It licks their faces and wags its tail. It brings back the balls and drops them. It wants to say, "I am sorry. I just wanted to play. Can we be friends?"
+
+Ben and Sam stop crying. They look at the dog and the balls. They think for a moment. Then, they smile and say, "OK. You can play with us. But be gentle. Don't break our toys. We can share."
+
+They hug the dog and the dog licks them. They take the balls and the tank parts. They make a new game. They are happy again.
+Tom and Lily liked to play in the garden. They had a big squash plant that grew many squashes. Some were big and some were small. Some were green and some were yellow.
+
+One day, they saw a very small squash that was different. It was orange and it had spots. It was hiding under a leaf. Tom and Lily picked it up and looked at it. It was warm and soft. They liked it.
+
+They took it inside and put it on the table. They wanted to show it to Mom and Dad. But when it got dark, something strange happened. The squash started to glow. It glowed orange and yellow and red. It made the room bright and cozy.
+
+Tom and Lily were amazed. They ran to get Mom and Dad. They showed them the glowing squash. Mom and Dad were surprised too. They said it was a special squash. It was a pumpkin.
+
+They told Tom and Lily that pumpkins were for Halloween. They said they could carve it and make a face. They said they could put a candle inside and make it glow more. They said they could make pie and soup and seeds from it.
+
+Tom and Lily were happy. They hugged the pumpkin. They said it was not a poor squash. It was a wonderful squash. They said they loved it. They said they wanted to grow more pumpkins next year.
+Ben likes to play with his toys. He has many toys in his drawer. He has cars, balls, dolls, and books. He likes to shake his toys and make noise.
+
+One day, Ben wants to play with his cars. He opens his drawer and takes out his cars. He puts them on the floor and makes them go fast. He shakes them and says "vroom, vroom". He is happy.
+
+But then, he hears a loud crack. He looks at his drawer and sees that it is broken. The wood is split and the handle is loose. He is sad. He likes his drawer. He does not want to lose his toys.
+
+He runs to his mom and says "Mom, mom, my drawer is broken. I was playing with my cars and it broke. I'm sorry, mom". His mom hugs him and says "It's okay, Ben. It's not your fault. The drawer was old and cheap. We can get a new one. Don't worry, your toys are safe".
+
+She takes him to his room and helps him pick up his toys. She puts them in a big box and says "We will keep your toys here until we get a new drawer. You can still play with them anytime you want". Ben smiles and says "Thank you, mom. I love you". He gives her a big hug and a kiss. He is happy again.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big balloon in the sky. The balloon is pink and has a smiley face on it.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Lily says. "It is so pretty and happy!"
+
+Ben nods. He likes the balloon too. He stares at it with his big eyes. He wonders how it feels to fly in the sky.
+
+"Can we go to the balloon?" he asks Lily.
+
+Lily shakes her head. "No, we can't. It is too high and far. We have to stay on the ground."
+
+Ben feels sad. He wants to touch the balloon and make it his friend. He thinks the balloon is lonely in the sky.
+
+"Maybe we can make our own balloon," he says. "We can use paper and string and paint."
+
+Lily smiles. She thinks that is a good idea. She likes to make things with her hands. She says, "Yes, let's do that. We can make a little balloon and make it pink too."
+
+They run to the playground and find some paper and string and paint. They work hard and have fun. They make a little balloon and paint it pink. They tie it to a stick and hold it up.
+
+"Look, we have a balloon!" they say. "It is like the big one, but smaller and ours."
+
+They wave their balloon in the air. They hope the big balloon can see them and be happy too. They are happy and proud of their little balloon. They stare at it with love.
+Sara and Tom were twins who liked to play in their big house. They had many toys and games, but sometimes they got bored. One day, they decided to explore the rooms they were not allowed to go in. They sneaked past their mom, who was busy in the kitchen, and went upstairs.
+
+They found a door that was locked, but Tom had a key he had taken from his dad's drawer. He opened the door and they saw a room full of furniture. There were chairs, tables, lamps, mirrors, and paintings. The furniture was very old and beautiful. Sara and Tom admired the furniture and wanted to touch it.
+
+"Look at this chair, Tom. It has flowers and birds on it. Can I sit on it?" Sara asked.
+
+"I don't know, Sara. Maybe we shouldn't. Mom and dad said this room is special and we can't go in." Tom said.
+
+"But it's so pretty. Just for a minute. Please, Tom." Sara begged.
+
+"Okay, fine. But be careful. Don't break anything." Tom said.
+
+Sara smiled and climbed on the chair. She felt like a princess. She looked at herself in the mirror and made a pose. Tom watched her and laughed. He saw a lamp that had a shiny ball on it. He wondered what would happen if he touched it.
+
+He reached for the lamp and pulled the ball. Suddenly, the lamp made a loud noise and sparks flew out of it. The lamp fell on the floor and broke. The sparks set the curtains on fire. Sara and Tom screamed and jumped off the chair. They ran to the door, but it was locked. They had forgotten to take the key with them.
+
+They banged on the door and shouted for help. But no one heard them. The fire spread quickly and the smoke filled the room. Sara and Tom coughed and cried. They hugged each other and hoped someone would save them. But no one came. The furniture burned and the room turned black. Sara and Tom stopped breathing and fell asleep. They never woke up.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play pretend. One day, they found a shiny crown in their mom's closet. They decided to take turns wearing it and pretending to be kings and queens.
+
+"I am the queen of the castle, and you are my servant," Anna said, putting the crown on her head. "You must do everything I say."
+
+"No, I am the king of the jungle, and you are my lioness," Ben said, trying to grab the crown. "You must follow me and hunt."
+
+They started to tug and pull on the crown, but it was too heavy for them. It slipped from their hands and fell on the floor with a loud clang.
+
+"Uh-oh," they said together, looking at the crown. It had a big dent on one side, and some of the jewels had fallen off.
+
+They heard their mom coming up the stairs. They quickly hid the crown under a pillow and pretended to be asleep.
+
+"Hello, my sweeties," their mom said, entering their room. "Did you have a good nap?"
+
+"Yes, mom," they said, trying to sound innocent.
+
+Their mom smiled and kissed them on their cheeks. She was very intelligent and knew they were hiding something. She lifted the pillow and saw the crown.
+
+"Where did you get this?" she asked, holding the crown.
+
+They looked at each other and did not know what to say. They knew they were in trouble.
+
+The end.
+Anna loves to cook with her mom. She likes to stir the soup, roll the dough and sprinkle the cheese. Today, mom says they will make a cake for dad's birthday. Anna is eager to help.
+
+"Can I crack the eggs, mom?" Anna asks.
+
+"Sure, honey. Be careful not to spill them," mom says. She gives Anna a bowl and two eggs. Anna taps the eggs on the edge of the bowl and breaks them open. She pours the eggs into the bowl and smiles.
+
+"Good job, Anna. Now we need to add some flour, sugar and butter," mom says. She measures the ingredients and puts them in a big mixer. Anna watches as the mixer makes a smooth batter.
+
+"Can I lick the spoon, mom?" Anna asks.
+
+"Of course, honey. But not too much, or you will spoil your appetite," mom says. She gives Anna a spoon with some batter on it. Anna licks the spoon and says, "Yummy!"
+
+Mom pours the batter into a cake pan and puts it in the oven. She sets the timer and says, "Now we have to wait for the cake to bake. Do you want to help me decorate it?"
+
+"Yes, mom. I want to make dad happy," Anna says.
+
+They go to the cupboard and take out some frosting, sprinkles and candles. They wait for the timer to ring. Anna hears a knock on the door.
+
+"Who is it?" she asks.
+
+"It's me, dad. I'm home early," dad says.
+
+Anna runs to the door and opens it. She hugs dad and says, "Surprise! We made you a cake!"
+
+Dad smiles and says, "Wow, thank you, Anna and mom. You are the best. Can I see the cake?"
+
+Anna and mom take dad to the kitchen and show him the cake. It is a chocolate cake with white frosting, colorful sprinkles and five candles.
+
+"Happy birthday, dad. We love you," Anna and mom say.
+
+Dad blows out the candles and says, "I love you too. This is the best birthday ever."
+Tom and Mia went to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and elephants. Tom liked the lions best. He wanted to roar like them. Mia liked the monkeys best. She wanted to swing like them.
+
+"Can we go see the lions again?" Tom asked Mom.
+
+"Can we go see the monkeys again?" Mia asked Dad.
+
+Mom and Dad looked at each other. They smiled.
+
+"OK, we can split up for a while," Mom said. "Tom, you come with me to the lions. Mia, you go with Dad to the monkeys. We will meet at the ice cream stand later."
+
+Tom and Mia were happy. They hugged Mom and Dad and went to their favorite animals.
+
+Tom and Mom walked to the lions. They were big and loud. Tom roared with them. He felt brave. Mom took a picture of him.
+
+Mia and Dad walked to the monkeys. They were small and fast. Mia swung with them. She felt fun. Dad took a picture of her.
+
+After a while, Tom and Mia got tired. They wanted to see each other and have ice cream.
+
+"Mom, can we go to the ice cream stand now?" Tom asked.
+
+"Dad, can we go to the ice cream stand now?" Mia asked.
+
+Mom and Dad nodded. They walked to the ice cream stand. They saw each other and waved.
+
+"Hi, Tom! Hi, Mia!" they said.
+
+"Hi, Mom! Hi, Dad!" they said.
+
+They hugged and showed each other their pictures. They were proud of their roars and swings.
+
+They bought ice cream and ate it. They were happy. They had a good day at the zoo.
+Lila and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park and look at the stars. One night, they decided to camp in the backyard and watch the sky.
+
+"Look, Lila, there are so many stars!" Ben said, pointing at the bright dots.
+
+"They are very pretty, Ben. Do you know what they are?" Lila asked.
+
+Ben nodded. "They are big balls of fire, very far away. They are part of the universe."
+
+"What is the universe?" Lila wondered.
+
+Ben thought for a moment. "The universe is everything that is. The sky, the earth, the moon, the sun, and us. It is very big and deep."
+
+Lila gasped. "That is amazing, Ben. How do you know that?"
+
+Ben smiled. "My dad told me. He likes to read books about the universe. He says there are many things we don't know yet, but we can always learn more."
+
+Lila nodded. "That sounds fun. I want to learn more too. Maybe we can be explorers of the universe."
+
+Ben agreed. "That would be awesome, Lila. We can use our imagination and pretend we are in a spaceship."
+
+They held hands and looked at the stars again. They felt happy and curious. They wanted to see more of the universe, but they also wanted to remain friends forever.
+Ben and Lily love to go to the park with their mom. They like to play on the swings, the seesaw and the slide. The slide is their favorite, because it is big and fast and fun.
+
+One day, they go to the park and see something incredible. The slide is covered with ice-cream! Someone spilled a big bucket of ice-cream on the slide, and it looks like a yummy mountain. Ben and Lily are very excited. They run to the slide and want to taste the ice-cream.
+
+"Wow, look at all the ice-cream!" Ben says.
+
+"Can we eat it, mom?" Lily asks.
+
+Mom laughs and says, "Sure, you can have a little bit, but be careful. It might be cold and sticky."
+
+Ben and Lily take a spoon and scoop some ice-cream from the slide. They lick it and smile. It is delicious. They try different flavors: chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, mint. They share with each other and say, "Mmm, this is the best ice-cream ever!"
+
+Then they decide to slide on the ice-cream. They climb to the top of the slide and sit down. They hold hands and say, "Ready, set, go!" They slide down the ice-cream, laughing and screaming. They feel the cold and the sweet on their skin and clothes. They have so much fun.
+
+Mom watches them and smiles. She thinks they are very silly and very cute. She takes a picture of them with her phone. She says, "This is a very special day. You will always remember the ice-cream slide."
+Lily and Max were twins who loved to play outside. They liked to ride their bikes, climb trees, and make mud pies. But their favorite thing to do was to watch the parade that came to their town every year. They liked to see the big floats, the funny clowns, and the loud music.
+
+One day, before the parade, Lily and Max were playing in their backyard. They saw a big fence that separated their yard from the next one. They had never seen what was behind the fence, but they were very curious.
+
+"I dare you to climb the fence and see what's there," Lily said to Max.
+
+"No, you go first," Max said. "I dare you."
+
+They both looked at the fence and felt scared and excited. They wondered what they would find. Maybe a secret garden, or a friendly dog, or a treasure chest.
+
+Lily took a deep breath and said, "OK, I'll go. But you have to come with me."
+
+She grabbed Max's hand and they ran to the fence. They helped each other climb over it and jumped to the other side. They looked around and gasped.
+
+They had landed in the middle of the parade!
+
+They saw the big floats, the funny clowns, and the loud music, but they also saw the people who were watching the parade. They saw their mom and dad, their grandma and grandpa, and their friends. They all looked surprised and happy to see them.
+
+"Look, it's Lily and Max!" their mom shouted. "How did you get there?"
+
+Lily and Max smiled and waved. They felt proud and happy. They had done something brave and fun. They had seen the parade from a different angle.
+
+They had also learned a lesson. Sometimes, a dare can lead to a great adventure. But sometimes, it can also lead to trouble. They hoped their mom and dad would not be too serious with them. They hoped they would still get some candy and balloons from the parade.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play with blocks and cars. But today they have a quarrel. Tom wants to build a big tower with all the blocks. Anna wants to make a cell for her toy lion. She says the lion is sick and needs a healthy place to rest.
+
+"Give me the blocks, Tom!" Anna says. "No, they are mine!" Tom says. They pull and push the blocks. Some blocks fall down and hit the lion. The lion makes a loud roar.
+
+Anna and Tom are scared. They think the lion is angry. They stop fighting and look at the lion. The lion is not angry. He is happy. He likes the blocks. He picks up a block with his mouth and plays with it.
+
+Anna and Tom laugh. They are sorry for their quarrel. They decide to share the blocks. They build a big tower and a cell together. They put the lion in the cell and give him some water and grass. The lion is healthy and happy. Anna and Tom are friends again. They hug and say sorry. They play with the lion and the blocks. They have fun.
+Tom liked to write stories with his crayons. He wrote about the sun, the moon, the stars and the planets. He wrote about the animals, the plants, the people and the cars. He wrote about everything he saw and imagined. He wrote on paper, on cardboard, on walls and on tables. He wrote a lot.
+
+One day, he decided to write a big story about the universe. He found a big sheet of paper and some colorful crayons. He started to draw the sun, the moon, the stars and the planets. He drew them big and bright. He drew them with smiles and eyes. He drew them with names and friends. He drew a happy universe.
+
+His mom came to see what he was doing. She saw his big story and smiled. She said, "Tom, this is a wonderful story. You are very creative. I love your universe."
+
+Tom looked at his mom and smiled. He said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. Do you want to write with me?"
+
+His mom said, "Yes, I do. Can I write something for you?"
+
+Tom said, "Yes, you can. What do you want to write?"
+
+His mom said, "I want to write that you are my adorable son. And that I am very proud of you."
+
+She took a crayon and wrote on the paper. She wrote, "Tom, you are my adorable son. I am very proud of you."

+Tom read what she wrote and hugged her. He said, "Thank you, mom. You are my adorable mom. I am very happy with you."
+
+They hugged and kissed. They wrote some more stories together. They wrote a lot.
+Tom and Lily were twins. They liked to play with their toys and share them. But sometimes they wanted the same toy and they fought.
+
+One day, Mom gave them a new toy. It was a shiny car that could move by itself. Tom and Lily both wanted to play with it. They grabbed it and pulled it.
+
+"Give me the car!" Tom said.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily said.
+
+They pulled harder and harder. The car broke in half. Tom and Lily cried.
+
+Mom heard them and came to see what happened. She saw the broken car and the twins.
+
+"What did you do?" Mom asked.
+
+"We wanted the car!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+Mom was sad and angry. She said, "You were selfish. You did not share. You did not care about the car. You only cared about yourself. Now the car is ruined and no one can play with it."
+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry. They said, "We're sorry, Mom. We were bad."
+
+Mom said, "You need to learn to be nice and share. You also need to say sorry to each other and hug."
+
+Tom and Lily said sorry to each other and hugged. They felt better.
+
+Mom said, "Now, let's go to the kitchen. I made steak for dinner. It's your favorite."
+
+Tom and Lily smiled. They liked steak. They followed Mom to the kitchen.
+
+On the way, they saw Dad. He was polishing his shoes. He said, "Hello, kids. How was your day?"
+
+Tom and Lily said, "We had a bad day. But we learned to be nice and share."
+
+Dad said, "That's good. I'm proud of you. Do you want to help me polish my shoes?"
+
+Tom and Lily said, "Yes, please!"
+
+They helped Dad polish his shoes. They made them shiny and clean. They had fun.
+
+They forgot about the broken car. They were happy.
+Lily likes to help her mom in the kitchen. She sees a big pot on the stove. It has soup inside. Lily wants to see the soup. She tries to lift the pot. But the pot is too heavy for her. She can't lift it.
+
+Mom sees Lily trying to lift the pot. She says, "No, Lily, don't touch the pot. It is hot. You can get hurt." She takes Lily away from the stove. She gives her a hug. She says, "I know you want to help, but the pot is not for you. You can help me with something else."
+
+Mom shows Lily a bowl of salad. It has lettuce, tomatoes, and cheese. It looks pretty. Mom says, "You can help me with the salad. You can toss it with this spoon. That will make it yummy." Lily takes the spoon. She tosses the salad. She likes to see the colors. She says, "I like salad. It is pretty. Can I have some?" Mom says, "Yes, you can have some. But first, we have to wait for dad and Sam. They will be home soon. Then we can eat together." Lily says, "OK, mom. I will wait. I love you." Mom says, "I love you too, Lily. You are a good helper."
+Lila and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big hole in the ground. They want to know what is inside. They go near the hole and look down. They see a lot of ants. The ants are busy and fast. They are carrying food to their home.
+
+Lila and Ben are curious. They want to feed the ants. They find some bread and cheese in their backpack. They break them into small pieces. They throw them into the hole. The ants are happy. They take the pieces and bring them to their home.
+
+Lila and Ben watch the ants for a long time. They see how the ants work together. They see how the ants make their home underground. They see how the ants are dirty but strong. They learn a lot from the ants. They say thank you to the ants and go back to their mom. They tell her what they saw and did. Mom is proud of them. She says they are smart and kind. She gives them a hug and a kiss.
+Lily and Tom were at the park with their mom. They saw a big fountain with water that went up and down. Lily liked the fountain. She said, "Look, mom, the fountain is pretty. Can I touch the water?"
+
+Mom said, "No, Lily, the water is dirty and cold. And the fountain is expensive. We have to be careful and not break it."
+
+Tom hated the fountain. He said, "The fountain is boring. I want to play with the ball. Can we go to the grass?"
+
+Mom said, "Yes, Tom, we can go to the grass. But first, let's take a picture with the fountain. It will be a nice memory."
+
+Lily and Tom smiled and stood next to the fountain. Mom took out her phone and said, "Say cheese!"
+
+But then, a big dog ran by and bumped into mom. Mom dropped her phone and it fell into the fountain. The phone made a splash and stopped working.
+
+Mom said, "Oh no, my phone! It's ruined!"
+
+Lily and Tom felt sorry for mom. They said, "We're sorry, mom. We love you."
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "It's okay, my loves. It's just a phone. You are more important to me than anything. But I think we should go home now. The fountain is not our friend today."
+Anna liked to balance on one foot. She did it every day in her room. She put on her favorite sweater. It was pink and soft and had a big flower on it. It was her original sweater. She got it from her grandma when she was a baby.
+
+She went to the living room and saw her brother Tom. He was playing with his cars on the floor. He had many cars, but they all looked the same. Anna thought they were boring. She wanted to show him her balance trick.
+
+She stood on one foot and lifted the other in the air. She smiled and said, "Look, Tom, I can balance!" She hoped he would be impressed.
+
+But Tom did not look at her. He kept playing with his cars. He did not care about her balance trick. He said, "So what? I can balance too." He stood on one foot and lifted the other in the air. He did not smile. He said, "See? It's easy."
+
+Anna felt sad. She thought her balance trick was special. She thought her sweater was special. But Tom did not think so. He did not like her sweater. He said, "Your sweater is ugly. It has a silly flower on it. Mine is better. It is blue and cool and has a star on it."
+
+Anna felt angry. She did not like his sweater. She said, "Your sweater is boring. It has a plain star on it. Mine is better. It is pink and original and has a beautiful flower on it."
+
+They started to argue. They raised their voices. They forgot to balance. They both fell on the floor. They both hurt their knees. They both cried.
+
+Mom heard them and came to the living room. She saw them on the floor. She saw their sweaters. She saw their tears. She hugged them and said, "Stop fighting. You are both silly. Your sweaters are both nice. They are both original. They are both from grandma. She made them for you with love. She wanted you to be happy and warm. She wanted you to be friends. Can you be friends?"
+
+Anna and Tom looked at each other. They felt sorry. They said, "Sorry." They hugged each other and said, "Friends." They smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. Thank you, grandma. We love you. We love our sweaters. We love our balance tricks. Can we show you?" Mom smiled and said, "Yes, please. Show me your balance tricks. I'm sure they are amazing." They stood on one foot and lifted the other in the air. They laughed and said, "Look, mom, we can balance!" Mom clapped and said, "Wow, you can balance! You are both wonderful. You are both original. You are both my stars."
+Lily and Ben are friends who like to play in the snow. They make snowmen, snowballs and snow forts. But one day, they have a quarrel. They want to have a race on their sleds, but they cannot agree on where to start and where to finish.
+
+"I want to start from the big hill and finish at the fence," says Lily.
+
+"No, I want to start from the fence and finish at the big hill," says Ben.
+
+They argue and argue, and they do not listen to each other. They get angry and sad, and they stop playing.
+
+Then, they see a bird on a branch. The bird is shivering and hungry. It has no food and no shelter in the icy weather. Lily and Ben feel sorry for the bird. They forget their quarrel and decide to help the bird.
+
+They work together to make a nest for the bird out of twigs and leaves. They find some seeds and berries and put them in the nest. They gently lift the bird and place it in the nest. The bird chirps and flaps its wings. It looks happy and warm.
+
+Lily and Ben smile and hug each other. They realize that they are still friends, and that their race does not matter. They apologize and forgive each other. They go back to their sleds and have fun in the snow. They share their sleds and take turns on the big hill and the fence. They do not quarrel anymore. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big truck with many toys. They run to the truck and look at the toys. Lily sees a doll with a pink dress. She likes the doll. Ben sees a gun with a red light. He likes the gun.
+
+"I want the doll," Lily says to the man in the truck. "How much is the doll?"
+
+"Five dollars," the man says.
+
+"I have five dollars," Lily says. She gives the man the money and takes the doll.
+
+"I want the gun," Ben says to the man. "How much is the gun?"
+
+"Ten dollars," the man says.
+
+"I have ten dollars," Ben says. He gives the man the money and takes the gun.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy with their toys. They go to the bench and play. Lily makes the doll talk and dance. Ben makes the gun flash and beep.
+
+"Look at my doll," Lily says to Ben. "She is so pretty and original. She has a pink dress and blue eyes. Do you like my doll?"
+
+"Look at my gun," Ben says to Lily. "It is so cool and original. It has a red light and a loud sound. Do you like my gun?"
+
+Lily and Ben look at each other's toys. They do not like each other's toys. They like their own toys.
+
+"I do not like your gun," Lily says to Ben. "It is too noisy and scary. I like my doll. She is quiet and nice."
+
+"I do not like your doll," Ben says to Lily. "It is too boring and girly. I like my gun. It is fun and exciting."
+
+Lily and Ben are not happy anymore. They do not want to play together. They turn away from each other and play alone. They miss their friends.
+Sam and Mia were playing in the yard. They liked to dig holes and fill them with dirt, rocks, and leaves. Sometimes they found shiny things like coins or buttons. They pretended they were treasure hunters.
+
+One day, they saw a big black pile near the fence. It looked like rocks, but darker and dirtier. Sam wondered what it was. He ran to the pile and picked up a piece. It was hard and cold. He showed it to Mia.
+
+"Look, Mia, what is this?" he asked.
+
+Mia looked at the piece. She had seen it before. Her grandpa had a fireplace in his house, and he used this to make fire. She knew the word for it.
+
+"It's coal, Sam. It makes fire and smoke. Grandpa says it's very old and comes from the ground," she said.
+
+Sam was curious. He wanted to see how coal made fire. He had an idea. He filled his pockets with coal and ran to the house. Mia followed him. She was nervous. She knew they were not supposed to play with fire.
+
+Sam went to the kitchen and found a box of matches. He took one and struck it on the box. It made a bright flame and a hissing sound. He was excited. He put the match on a piece of coal and waited. Nothing happened. He tried another match. And another. The coal did not catch fire. He was confused and disappointed.
+
+Mia watched from the door. She was relieved. She did not want Sam to start a fire and get in trouble. She also did not want to get burned or breathe smoke. She decided to tell Sam the truth.
+
+"Sam, coal does not make fire by itself. You need paper and wood and air. And you need to be careful. Fire is dangerous. Grandpa says only grown-ups can use it," she said.
+
+Sam looked at Mia. He realized she was right. He felt silly and sorry. He put the matches and the coal back where he found them. He hugged Mia and said,
+
+"Thank you, Mia. You are a good sister. I'm sorry I was silly. Let's go back to the yard and play with dirt and rocks and leaves. They are more fun and safer than coal and fire."
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the garden. They have a big green hose. They can spray water with the hose. They spray the flowers, the grass and the bugs.
+
+One day, they see a big yellow bird in a tree. The bird is sleeping. Anna and Ben want to spray the bird. They think it is funny. They sneak up to the tree. They turn on the hose. They spray the bird.
+
+The bird wakes up. It is wet and angry. It squawks loudly. It flies down to Anna and Ben. It pecks their heads. It flaps its wings. It sprays water back at them.
+
+Anna and Ben are scared and sorry. They run away from the bird. They drop the hose. They say, "We are sorry, bird. We did not mean to spray you. We were just playing."
+
+The bird calms down. It sees that Anna and Ben are sorry. It is a generous bird. It forgives them. It says, "It is okay, children. But do not spray me again. I do not like it. I like to sleep in the tree. You can spray the flowers, the grass and the bugs. They do not mind."
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They say, "Thank you, bird. You are very generous. We will not spray you again. We will spray the flowers, the grass and the bugs. They are fun to spray."
+
+The bird flies back to the tree. It goes back to sleep. Anna and Ben pick up the hose. They spray the flowers, the grass and the bugs. They have fun in the garden. They are careful not to spray the bird. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They have different hair. Lily has long, black hair. Ben has short, red hair.
+
+One day, they see a new girl in the park. She has very modern hair. It is pink and blue and green. It is spiky and shiny. Lily and Ben think her hair is cool.
+
+"Hi, what is your name?" Lily asks the new girl.
+
+"My name is Zoe. I like your hair. It is long and black. It is pretty," Zoe says.
+
+"Thank you. I like your hair too. It is modern and colorful. It is fun," Lily says.
+
+"Hi, I am Ben. My hair is red. It is short and curly. It is nice," Ben says.
+
+"Hi, Ben. Your hair is red. It is short and curly. It is cute," Zoe says.
+
+They all smile and become friends. They play in the park. They have different hair, but they have the same fun.
+Tim and Sue like to play in the backyard. They have a big box that they pretend is a castle. They also have a fake lion that they made from lumber and paint. They take turns being the king or the queen of the castle, and the other one is the lion.
+
+One day, Tim is the king and Sue is the lion. She hides behind a bush and waits for Tim to come out of the castle. She wants to scare him and make him run away. She thinks of a loud roar that she can make.
+
+"Roar!" Sue jumps out of the bush and runs towards Tim. She tries to sound like a real lion, but her roar is more like a squeak.
+
+Tim sees Sue and laughs. He is not scared at all. He knows that Sue is not a real lion. He knows that her lion is fake. He picks up a stick and pretends it is a sword.
+
+"Ha! You are a silly lion, Sue. You cannot scare me. I am the king of the castle, and I have a sword. Go away, or I will poke you!" Tim says.
+
+Sue stops and pouts. She does not like that Tim is laughing at her. She does not like that her roar is not good. She wants to be a real lion, not a fake one.
+
+"Fine, Tim. You are a mean king. I do not want to play with you. I will find another castle, and another king, who will like my roar." Sue says.
+
+She picks up her fake lion and walks away. She looks for another place to play. She hopes that she will find a better roar.
+Lily and Max were friends who liked to play together. One day, they decided to pretend they were hairdressers and make each other look nice. They found some scissors, combs, clips and shampoo in Lily's bathroom.
+
+"Can I lend your shampoo, Lily?" Max asked. "I want to wash your hair and make it shiny."
+
+"Sure, Max. You can lend my shampoo. But be careful, don't cut too much of my hair. I like it long," Lily said.
+
+Max nodded and poured some shampoo on Lily's head. He rubbed it gently and made some bubbles. Lily giggled and closed her eyes. She liked how Max was playing with her hair.
+
+But then, Max saw a big bottle of purple shampoo on the shelf. He didn't know what it was, but he thought it looked fun. He was ignorant and curious. He grabbed the bottle and squeezed some purple shampoo on Lily's hair, too.
+
+"Max, what are you doing?" Lily cried. She opened her eyes and saw her hair was purple. She was shocked and angry. "That's not my shampoo, that's my mom's shampoo. She uses it to make her hair a different color. You ruined my hair, Max!"
+
+Max was scared and sorry. He didn't mean to make Lily sad. He tried to wash off the purple shampoo, but it didn't work. It stained Lily's hair.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't know. I thought it was just shampoo. Please don't be mad at me," Max said.
+
+Lily was still mad, but she also felt sorry for Max. He was her friend, and he made a mistake. She knew he didn't do it on purpose.
+
+"It's okay, Max. I forgive you. But next time, don't use things you don't know. And don't lend things that are not yours. You have to ask first," Lily said.
+
+Max nodded and hugged Lily. He learned his lesson. He hoped Lily's mom wouldn't be too mad at them. He also hoped Lily's hair would go back to normal soon. They decided to stop playing hairdressers and play something else. They were still friends.
+Sara and Ben love to play with their toy jet. They pretend to fly it around the house and make zooming noises. One day, they decide to cook something for their jet. They find some bread, cheese, and jam in the kitchen and make a sandwich. They cut it into small pieces and put it on a plate.
+
+"Here you go, jet. This is your lunch," Sara says, holding the plate in front of the jet.
+
+"Thank you, Sara. You are very kind," the jet says in a funny voice. Ben is hiding behind the jet and making it talk.
+
+Sara and Ben laugh and feed the jet some sandwich. They think the jet likes it, because it makes happy noises.
+
+But then, they give the jet a piece with jam. The jet makes a sour face and spits it out.
+
+"Yuck! This is bitter. I don't like jam," the jet says.
+
+Sara and Ben are surprised. They taste the jam and find out that it is very bitter. They look at the jar and see that it is not jam, but mustard.
+
+"Oops! We made a mistake. This is not jam, this is mustard. Mustard is for hot dogs, not for sandwiches," Sara says.
+
+"Sorry, jet. We didn't mean to give you something you don't like. Do you want some water?" Ben says.
+
+"Yes, please. Water will make me feel better," the jet says.
+
+Sara and Ben get some water and give it to the jet. The jet drinks it and smiles.
+
+"Thank you, Sara and Ben. You are very nice. I forgive you for the mustard. Can we play some more?" the jet says.
+
+"Of course, jet. We love to play with you. Let's fly to the moon!" Sara says.
+
+"Yay! Let's go!" Ben says.
+
+Sara and Ben pick up the jet and fly it around the house again. They make zooming noises and have fun. They forget about the bitter mustard and enjoy their sandwich. They are happy.
+Sara was excited to see a new book on the shelf. She loved books with pictures and stories. She wanted to read the book by herself. She took the book and went to her room.
+
+She opened the book and looked at the words. She did not know many words. She tried to sound them out. She tried to guess what they meant. She tried to follow the story. But the book was too hard for her. She felt sad and angry.
+
+She threw the book on the floor. She ripped the pages. She scribbled on the pictures. She shouted at the book. She did not want the book anymore. She wanted an easy book.
+
+Her mom heard the noise and came to her room. She saw the book on the floor. She saw the ripped pages and the scribbled pictures. She was very mad at Sara. She took the book and said, "Sara, this is a bad thing to do. This book is not yours. It is from the library. You have to pay for it. You have to say sorry. You have to go to bed early. No more books for you today."
+
+Sara cried and said, "But mom, I wanted to read the book. I tried to read the book. It was too hard for me. I did not like the book." But her mom did not listen. She took Sara to her bed and turned off the light. Sara felt very sorry and very sad. She wished she had not taken the book. She wished she had asked for help. She wished she had a different book. She wished she had a happy ending.
+Ben and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be different things. Ben liked to be a fireman and Lily liked to be a princess.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a fire truck!" Ben said, showing her his red toy. "I can put out fires and save people!"
+
+"That's cool, Ben!" Lily said, admiring his fire truck. "Can I see it?"
+
+"Sure, but be careful. It's my favorite toy," Ben said, handing it to her.
+
+Lily took the fire truck and looked at it. She saw a shiny button on the side. She wondered what it did. She pressed it, and a loud siren sounded. She was surprised and scared. She dropped the fire truck on the floor.
+
+"Oh no, Lily, you broke it!" Ben cried, picking up his fire truck. He saw that the button was loose and the siren was not working anymore. He was very sad and angry. "You are so careless, Lily! You ruined my fire truck!"
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben, I didn't mean to!" Lily said, feeling sorry and guilty. She wanted to make Ben happy again. She looked around and saw a roll of paper on the table. She had an idea. "Wait, Ben, I can fix it!"
+
+She ran to the table and grabbed the paper. She came back to Ben and said, "Look, Ben, I can wrap your fire truck with this paper. It will make it look new and pretty!"
+
+She started to wrap the fire truck with the paper, but she did not do a good job. She used too much paper and made a lot of wrinkles and tears. She also covered the wheels and the windows and the ladder. She did not notice that Ben was not happy. She smiled and said, "There, Ben, I fixed it! Do you like it?"
+
+Ben looked at his fire truck and felt more sad and angry. He did not like it at all. He thought it looked worse than before. He said, "No, Lily, I don't like it! You made it worse! You are so careless, Lily! You ruined my fire truck twice!"
+
+He snatched the fire truck from her and tore off the paper. He threw the paper on the floor and hugged his fire truck. He said, "Go away, Lily, I don't want to play with you anymore!"
+
+Lily felt more sorry and guilty. She also felt hurt and lonely. She said, "But, Ben, I was trying to help you! I'm sorry, Ben, please don't be mad at me!"
+
+She started to cry and ran to her room. She wished she had not pressed the button or wrapped the fire truck. She wished Ben would forgive her and play with her again. She wished they could be friends.
+Sara was shy. She did not like to talk to other kids. She liked to play with her drum. She made loud and soft sounds with it. She was happy with her drum.
+
+One day, she went to the park with her mom. She saw a big slide. She wanted to try it. She took her drum with her. She climbed up the stairs. She was ready to slide down.
+
+But then, a boy came. He was not shy. He was rude. He wanted to slide too. He did not wait for his turn. He pushed Sara. He said, "Move, move, I want to slide!"
+
+Sara was scared. She held her drum tight. She did not move. She said, "No, no, it is my turn!"
+
+The boy was angry. He poked Sara. He said, "Give me your drum, it is mine!"
+
+Sara was sad. She did not want to give her drum. She loved her drum. She said, "No, no, it is my drum!"
+
+The boy poked Sara again. He tried to take her drum. Sara cried. She said, "Help, help, mom!"
+
+Her mom heard her. She ran to the slide. She saw the boy and Sara. She said, "Stop, stop, what are you doing?"
+
+She took Sara in her arms. She said, "Are you okay, Sara? Did he hurt you?"
+
+Sara nodded. She said, "He poked me. He wanted my drum."
+
+Her mom said, "That is not nice. He should not poke you. He should not take your drum. He should say sorry."
+
+She looked at the boy. She said, "You, boy, why did you poke Sara? Why did you want her drum?"
+
+The boy was quiet. He looked down. He said, "I'm sorry. I like drums. I don't have a drum."
+
+Sara's mom said, "I see. But you should not take things that are not yours. You should ask nicely. Maybe Sara would share her drum with you. If you are nice to her."
+
+She looked at Sara. She said, "Sara, do you want to share your drum with him? He likes drums too. Maybe you can be friends."
+
+Sara was shy. She did not know the boy. But she saw that he was sorry. She saw that he liked drums. She liked drums too. She said, "Okay, I can share my drum. But you have to be nice. And you have to wait for your turn."
+
+The boy smiled. He said, "Thank you, Sara. I will be nice. And I will wait for my turn."
+
+Sara's mom said, "That is good. Now, you can play together. But be careful on the slide. And have fun."
+
+She gave Sara her drum. She watched them slide down. They made sounds with the drum. They laughed. They were happy. Sara was not shy anymore. She made a new friend.
+Lila loved her goat, Nana. Nana was a white goat with brown spots and horns. Nana was obedient and followed Lila everywhere. Lila liked to feed Nana grass and carrots and brush her fur.
+
+One day, Lila wanted to take Nana to the park. She asked her mom, "Mom, can I take Nana to the park?"
+
+Mom said, "Yes, you can, but you have to be careful. The park is big and there are many people and dogs. You have to hold Nana's leash and not let her run away."
+
+Lila nodded and said, "OK, mom. I will be careful and hold Nana's leash. Nana is obedient and will not run away."
+
+Lila and Nana walked to the park. They saw many flowers and trees and birds. They also saw many people and dogs. Some dogs barked at Nana and some people smiled at Nana. Lila said, "Hello, this is my goat, Nana. She is obedient and friendly."
+
+Some people and dogs wanted to pet Nana and play with her. Lila let them, but she always held Nana's leash and watched her. Nana liked to be petted and played with, but she always stayed close to Lila.
+
+Lila and Nana had a lot of fun at the park. They made new friends and saw new things. When it was time to go home, Lila said, "Thank you for playing with us. Bye-bye."
+
+Lila and Nana walked back home. They were happy and tired. Mom was waiting for them. She said, "How was the park?"
+
+Lila said, "It was great, mom. We met many people and dogs. Nana was obedient and did not run away. She is a good goat."
+
+Mom said, "I'm glad you had fun, Lila. And I'm proud of you and Nana. You are a good girl and Nana is a good goat."
+Tim and Sam were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and find bugs. They had a big bucket full of worms and beetles. They were very happy.
+
+But then, a rat appeared from behind a bush. It was brown and furry and had a long tail. It saw the bucket and wanted to eat the bugs. It ran towards the bucket, making a squeaky noise.
+
+"Go away, rat!" Tim shouted. He picked up a stick and waved it at the rat. "These are our bugs, not yours!"
+
+But the rat was persistent. It did not care about the stick. It dodged and jumped and tried to reach the bucket. It was very hungry and brave.
+
+"Help, Sam!" Tim cried. He could not stop the rat by himself. He needed his friend.
+
+Sam heard Tim and ran to help him. He also grabbed a stick and joined Tim. Together, they swung their sticks at the rat. They made loud noises and scared the rat.
+
+The rat realized it could not get the bugs. It was outnumbered and outmatched. It gave up and ran away, back to the bush. It looked for another place to find food.
+
+Tim and Sam cheered. They had saved their bucket and their bugs. They hugged each other and smiled. They were very proud. They continued to play in the garden, happy and safe.
+Lily and Ben are best friends. They like to play with toys and eat jelly. One day, Lily has to go to grandma's house for a week. She is sad because she will miss Ben.
+
+"Bye, Ben. I will miss you a lot. Will you miss me?" Lily asks.
+
+"Of course, I will miss you, Lily. You are my best friend. I will save some jelly for you. Have fun with grandma," Ben says.
+
+Lily hugs Ben and gets in the car with mom. She waves goodbye and hopes to see Ben soon.
+
+Ben goes home and plays with his toys. But he feels lonely without Lily. He misses her voice and her smile. He misses sharing jelly with her. He tries to call her on the phone, but she is busy with grandma. He feels sad and bored.
+
+The next day, he sees a new girl in the park. She has curly hair and a pink dress. She is playing with a ball. Ben thinks she looks nice and wants to make a new friend.
+
+"Hi, I'm Ben. What's your name?" he asks.
+
+"I'm Zoe. Do you want to play with me?" she asks.
+
+"Sure, I like to play. Do you like jelly?" he asks.
+
+"Jelly? That's a crazy word. I don't know what that is. I like candy and ice cream," she says.
+
+Ben is surprised. He thinks jelly is the best thing ever. How can she not know what jelly is? He thinks she is crazy. He doesn't want to play with her anymore. He wants to play with Lily. He misses Lily more than ever. He runs away from Zoe and goes home. He waits for Lily to come back. He hopes she will bring some jelly for him. He loves jelly and he loves Lily.
+Lila and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to climb the big tree and pretend they were birds. They found a branch that was unusual. It was very long and had many leaves.
+
+"Look, Ben, this branch is like a swing!" Lila said. She grabbed the branch and swung back and forth.
+
+"Wow, that looks fun!" Ben said. He wanted to try too. He waited for Lila to stop and then he took the branch.
+
+But when he swung, the branch broke. Ben fell to the ground and hurt his knee. He cried out loud.
+
+Lila ran to him and hugged him. She said, "I'm sorry, Ben. Are you okay?"
+
+Ben nodded, but he still felt sad. He said, "The branch was bad. It broke and made me fall."
+
+Lila said, "No, Ben, the branch was not bad. It was just old and weak. It could not hold us. It was not its fault."
+
+She reminded him of the time when they broke their toy car. They were not mad at the car. They just fixed it and played with it again.
+
+She said, "Maybe we can fix the branch too. We can find some string and tie it to another branch. Then we can swing again."
+
+Ben smiled. He liked Lila's idea. He said, "Okay, let's do that. You are a good friend, Lila."
+
+They got up and looked for some string. They found some in their backpack. They tied the branch to another branch. They tested it and it worked. They swung again and laughed.
+
+They had fun with the unusual branch. They forgot about their pain and their sadness. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily wanted to perform a show for their mom and dad. They put on their hats and coats and went outside to the snow. They made a big snowman with a carrot nose and a scarf. They also made some snowballs and a snow fort.

+"OK, let's see your show," mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily started to sing a song about the snowman. They danced around him and threw some snow in the air. They were having fun and making mom and dad laugh.
+
+But then, Lily was careless. She threw a snowball at Tom, but she missed. The snowball hit the snowman's head and knocked off his hat and nose.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily cried.
+
+The snowman looked sad and funny without his hat and nose. Tom was angry and threw a snowball back at Lily. They started to have a snow fight.
+
+"Stop, stop!" mom and dad said. "That's not a nice way to perform. You have to be careful and kind to each other and to the snowman."
+
+Tom and Lily stopped and looked at each other. They felt sorry for what they did. They ran to the snowman and fixed his hat and nose. They hugged him and said sorry.
+
+"Can we still perform for you?" Tom asked.
+
+"Of course you can," dad said. "But this time, be nice and have fun together."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and smiled. They sang another song about the snowman and how he was their friend. They also made him a snow hat and a snow cake. Mom and dad clapped and cheered.
+
+They all had a happy and warm time in the snow.
+Tom and Ben were friends who liked to play chess. Chess was a game with black and white pieces that moved on a board. Tom and Ben learned how to play chess from their dads, who were very good at it.
+
+One day, Tom and Ben decided to play chess in the park. They brought their chess board and pieces and set them up on a bench. They took turns to move their pieces and try to catch the other's king. Tom was very good at chess and soon he had more pieces than Ben.
+
+"Check!" Tom said, as he moved his queen close to Ben's king. Ben looked at the board and saw that he had no way to save his king. He felt sad and angry. He did not like to lose.
+
+"That's not fair!" Ben shouted. He grabbed the board and threw it on the ground. The pieces flew everywhere and some of them broke. Tom was shocked and scared. He did not expect Ben to do that.
+
+"Why did you do that?" Tom asked. "That was my dad's chess board. He will be very mad at me."
+
+"I don't care!" Ben said. "You always win. You are a cheater. I don't want to play with you anymore. Go away!"
+
+Tom felt hurt and confused. He did not cheat. He just played well. He thought Ben was his friend, but now he was not. He picked up the broken pieces and ran away. He wanted to call his dad and tell him what happened, but he was afraid his dad would be angry too. He felt very troubled and alone. He wished he had never played chess with Ben.
+Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play and joke. One day, they find a big blue ball in the park. They think it is fun to kick the ball and roll it.
+
+But then, a mean dog comes. The dog is big and loud. It wants the ball. It runs to the ball and bites it. The ball pops. The dog runs away.
+
+Ben and Lily are sad. They liked the ball. They say, "That was a stupid dog. It ruined our ball. It was not funny. It was mean."
+
+They go to find another toy. They see a red bike. They think it is fun to ride the bike. They take turns on the bike.
+
+But then, a mean boy comes. The boy is big and rude. He wants the bike. He pushes Ben and Lily off the bike. He takes the bike and rides away.
+
+Ben and Lily are mad. They liked the bike. They say, "That was a stupid boy. He stole our bike. He was not nice. He was bad."
+
+They go to find another friend. They see a yellow duck. They think it is cute to feed the duck. They give the duck some bread.
+
+But then, the duck jokes. It does not eat the bread. It spits the bread at Ben and Lily. It quacks and laughs.
+
+Ben and Lily are surprised. They did not expect that. They say, "That was a funny duck. It joked with us. It was not mean. It was silly."
+
+They laugh with the duck. They play and joke. They forget the dog and the boy. They are happy.
+One day, a hunter went to the forest to look for food. He had a big bow and arrow, and a sharp knife. He saw a deer, and he wanted to catch it. He followed the deer quietly, and waited for a good chance to shoot.
+
+But the deer was not alone. Behind a big tree, a lion was also following the deer. The lion was hungry, and he thought the deer looked delicious. He did not see the hunter, and the hunter did not see him. The lion jumped out of the hiding place, and roared loudly.
+
+The deer heard the roar, and ran away fast. The hunter heard the roar, and turned around. He saw the lion, and he was scared. He dropped his bow and arrow, and ran away too. The lion chased the hunter, and the deer ran to safety.
+
+"Help, help!" the hunter shouted. "There is a lion after me!"
+
+A man and a woman heard the hunter's cry. They were walking in the forest, and they had a big dog with them. They saw the hunter running, and the lion behind him. They wanted to help the hunter.
+
+"Come here, come here!" the man said. "Our dog will scare the lion away!"
+
+The hunter ran to the man and the woman, and the dog barked at the lion. The lion stopped, and looked at the dog. The dog was big and strong, and he looked angry. The lion decided to leave the hunter alone, and find another meal. He turned around, and ran away too.
+
+The hunter was safe, and he thanked the man and the woman. He picked up his bow and arrow, and said goodbye. He learned a lesson that day. He learned to be careful in the forest, and not to follow the deer too close. He also learned to be grateful for the help of others, and to share his food with them. He gave the man and the woman some of his bread and cheese, and they gave him some of their fruit and nuts. They ate together, and they became friends. The dog also got a treat, and he wagged his tail happily. They all had a delicious meal, and a good day.

+
+Lily ran after the boy. She shouted, "Hey, that is my ball! Give it back to me!"
+
+The boy heard her and turned around. He saw Lily and smiled. He said, "I like your ball. It is pink and pretty. Can I have it?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She said, "No, you cannot have it. It is mine. I love it. You should not take things that are not yours. That is not nice."
+
+The boy looked at Lily. He saw that she was sad and angry. He felt sorry. He said, "I am sorry. I did not mean to make you sad and angry. I just wanted to play with your ball. Here, you can have it back."
+
+He gave the ball to Lily. Lily took it and hugged it. She said, "Thank you. I am glad you gave it back to me. Do you want to play with me and my ball?"
+
+The boy nodded. He said, "Yes, I do. You are very kind. Can we be friends?"

+
+"Let's go and look," said Lily.
+
+"OK, but be careful," said Tom.
+
+They crawled under the hedge and found a secret garden. There were flowers, trees, and a pond. They enjoyed exploring the garden and smelling the flowers.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud roar. They turned around and saw a fierce lion. It had escaped from the zoo and was hiding in the garden.
+
+"Run!" shouted Tom.
+
+They ran back to the hedge as fast as they could. The lion chased them, but it was too big to fit under the hedge. It roared again and then went away.

+
+"Wow, look at that bicycle!" Tom says. "It is so cool. Can we ride it?"
+
+"I don't know," Anna says. "Maybe it belongs to someone. Maybe they will be angry if we touch it."
+
+Tom does not listen. He runs to the bicycle and tries to climb on it. He is too small. He cannot reach the pedals. He falls down and hurts his knee.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tom cries. "It hurts!"
+
+Anna runs to Tom and helps him up. She holds his hand and says, "Don't cry, Tom. It is okay. I have a band-aid in my pocket. I will put it on your knee."
+
+She takes out a band-aid and sticks it on Tom's knee. Tom stops crying. He smiles and says, "Thank you, Anna. You are a good friend."
+
+They hear a loud voice. It is a man. He is holding a leash. He has a big dog. The dog is barking. The man is angry.
+
+"Hey, you kids! What are you doing with my bicycle? That is my bicycle! You are crazy! Get away from it!"
+
+Tom and Anna are scared. They drop the bicycle and run away. They hide behind a tree. They hug each other and say, "That was a bad bicycle. That was a bad man. That was a bad dog. Let's go home."
+
+They hold hands and run home. They never play with the bicycle again. They play with their own toys. They are happy.

+Sam liked to play with his model cars. He had many cars of different colors and sizes. He kept them in a big box under his bed. Sometimes he would take them out and make them race on the floor or on his rug.
+
+One day, Sam heard his mom call him from the kitchen. "Sam, it's time for lunch. Come and wash your hands." Sam did not want to stop playing. He wanted to finish his race. He had a hidden car that he wanted to use as a surprise. He said to his mom, "Just a minute, mom. I'm almost done."
+
+But his mom did not hear him. She thought he was coming. She went to the table and put his plate and cup. She waited for Sam, but he did not come. She called him again, louder. "Sam, come on. Your food is getting cold. Don't make me come and get you."
+
+Sam heard his mom, but he still wanted to play. He said to himself, "One more lap, then I'll go." He took out his hidden car. It was a shiny red car with a big engine. He put it on the floor and made it zoom past the other cars. He said, "Ha! I win. You can't catch me."
+
+But he did not see his little sister, Lily, who was crawling on the floor. She saw the shiny red car and wanted to play with it. She reached out her hand and grabbed it. She put it in her mouth and made a noise. "Mmm, yummy."
+
+Sam saw Lily and got angry. He shouted, "Hey, that's my car. Give it back. That's not food. That's my model." He ran to Lily and tried to take the car from her. But Lily did not want to let go. She bit the car and made a louder noise. "No, mine. Mine."
+
+Sam and Lily started to fight over the car. They pulled and pushed and cried. Their mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw them and got worried. She said, "What are you doing? Stop that. You could hurt each other. And what is that in your mouth, Lily? Spit it out. That's not a toy. That's a model."
+
+She took the car from Lily and checked if she was okay. She saw that the car was broken and had teeth marks. She said, "Oh, Sam. I'm sorry. Your car is ruined. How did this happen?"
+
+Sam felt sad and sorry. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was playing with my cars and I didn't come when you called me. I had a hidden car that I wanted to use as a surprise. But Lily saw it and took it and bit it. I tried to get it back, but she wouldn't give it. I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry, Lily."
+
+His mom hugged him and said, "It's okay, Sam. I know you love your cars. But you have to listen when I call you. And you have to share with your sister. She's too little to know better. Maybe we can fix your car or get you a new one. But first, let's go and have lunch. You must be hungry."
+
+Sam nodded and said, "Okay, mom. I'm hungry. And I'm sorry. Can I say sorry to Lily too?"

+
+She decided to go to Sam's house and say sorry. She took her flute and a flower. She knocked on Sam's door.
+

+"What is it for?" Sam asks. "Can we blow bubbles with it?"
+
+Dad laughs. He shakes his head.
+
+"No, boys, this is not a bubble pipe. This is a water pipe. It is for the plants. It has holes in it. When you turn on the tap, water comes out of the holes and makes the plants happy."
+
+"Can we see?" Tim asks.
+
+"Sure, let's go to the garden," Dad says. He takes the pipe and the boys. He connects the pipe to the tap. He turns on the water.

+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. They also have a big calendar on the wall. The calendar has pictures of animals and numbers.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben are bored. They want to do something fun. They look at the calendar and see a picture of a panda. They like pandas. They decide to pretend to be pandas.
+
+They put on black and white clothes and make panda ears with paper. They crawl on the floor and make panda noises. They find a ball and roll it to each other. They have fun.
+
+"Look, Ben, we are pandas!" Lily says.
+

+
+They roll the ball back and forth. They laugh and giggle.
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud noise. It is their mom. She is coming to their room. She is alert. She smells something bad.
+
+"Lily and Ben, what are you doing?" Mom says. "Why do you have black and white clothes and paper ears? And what is that smell?"
+
+Lily and Ben stop playing. They look at each other. They remember something. They forgot to change their diapers. They are not pandas. They are babies.
+
+They feel shy and sorry. They drop the ball and the paper ears. They say to mom:
+
+"Sorry, mom. We are not pandas. We are babies. We need new diapers."
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them. She says:
+
+"It's okay, Lily and Ben. I love you, pandas or babies. But you need to change your diapers. And you need to clean up your room. And you need to learn the days of the week. Do you know what day it is today?"
+
+Lily and Ben look at the calendar. They see the picture of the panda and the number. They say together:
+

+Lila and Sam were best friends. They liked to play in the woods near their homes. They were very creative and made up stories and games with sticks and stones and leaves.
+
+One day, they found a creek in the woods. It was a small creek, but it had clear water and shiny fish. Lila and Sam decided to build a bridge over the creek with some big sticks. They worked hard and had fun.
+
+"Look, we made a bridge!" Lila said. "Now we can cross the creek and explore the other side."
+
+"Let's go!" Sam said. They held hands and walked over the bridge. They felt proud and happy.
+
+But when they reached the other side, they heard a loud snap. They turned around and saw that their bridge had broken. The sticks had fallen into the water and floated away.
+
+"Oh no!" Lila said. "Our bridge is gone! How will we get back?"
+
+Sam felt scared. He did not like the other side of the creek. It was dark and strange. He did not see any other way to cross the water.
+
+He started to cry. "I want to go home!" he sobbed.
+
+Lila hugged him. She felt scared too, but she wanted to be brave for Sam. She looked around and saw a big log near the creek. It was long and thick and had a smooth top.
+
+She had an idea. She wiped her tears and said, "Don't cry, Sam. I have a plan. We can use this log as a boat. We can push it into the water and sit on it. Then we can paddle with our hands and go back to our side."
+
+Sam looked at the log. He was not sure if it would work, but he trusted Lila. He nodded and said, "OK, let's try."
+
+They worked together and pushed the log into the creek. They climbed on it and sat in the middle. They used their hands as paddles and moved the log slowly across the water.
+
+They were careful not to fall off or get wet. They saw their bridge sticks floating by and waved goodbye to them.
+
+They reached their side and jumped off the log. They were happy and relieved. They hugged each other and said, "We did it! We are back!"
+
+They ran back to their homes and told their parents what happened. Their parents were glad they were safe and praised them for being creative and brave.
+
+Lila and Sam smiled and said, "We are best friends. We can do anything together."
+Mira likes to wash her hands before she eats. She knows it is polite and good for her health. She has a special song that she sings when she washes her hands. It goes like this:

+I wash my hands with soap and water
+I wash them front and back and in between
+I wash them for twenty seconds or longer
+I wash them so they are nice and clean
+
+One day, Mira went to visit her grandma. Grandma made her some yummy cookies and milk. Mira wanted to eat them, but she remembered her song. She asked grandma if she could wash her hands first. Grandma smiled and said yes. She took Mira to the bathroom and gave her some soap and a towel. Mira started to sing her song as she washed her hands. Grandma listened and clapped her hands. She said, "What a lovely song, Mira! You are such a polite and smart girl. I am very proud of you." Mira smiled and hugged grandma. She said, "Thank you, grandma. I learned the song from mommy. She says it helps me stay healthy and happy." Grandma and Mira went back to the kitchen and enjoyed the cookies and milk. They also sang the song together and had a lot of fun.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park with their mom. They liked to swing, slide and run on the grass. They saw a big dog with brown fur and a long tail. The dog was running and barking with a ball in his mouth.
+
+"Look, mom, a dog!" Ben said, pointing at the dog.
+
+"Yes, that's a dog. He looks very happy and excited, doesn't he?" mom said.
+
+"Can we pet him, mom? Can we?" Lily asked.
+
+Mom looked at the dog and his owner, who was sitting on a bench. She smiled and said, "Maybe, but we have to ask first. We can't touch a dog without his owner's permission. That's not nice."
+
+Mom and the kids walked over to the bench and said hello to the owner. She was a nice lady with a hat and glasses. She smiled and said, "Hello, do you like my dog? His name is Max."
+
+"We like him very much. He's very cute and excited. Can we pet him, please?" Ben and Lily said together.
+
+"Of course, you can. Max loves to make new friends. He's very friendly and gentle. Just be careful not to pull his ears or tail, okay?" the lady said.
+
+"Okay, we won't. Thank you!" Ben and Lily said.
+
+They petted Max and threw his ball for him. Max wagged his tail and licked their faces. He was very happy and excited. Ben and Lily were happy and excited too. They had a lot of fun with Max and his owner.
+
+"Mom, can we have a dog like Max?" Ben asked.
+
+"Maybe someday, honey. But for now, we can enjoy playing with Max whenever we see him in the park. He's a very good dog, isn't he?" mom said.
+
+"Yes, he is. He's the best dog ever!" Lily said.
+
+They thanked the lady and Max for letting them play with them. They said goodbye and went back to their own games. They never forgot to mention Max whenever they talked about the park. He was their new friend and they loved him very much.
+Lily loved to collect balloons. She had many balloons of different colors and shapes in her room. She liked to blow them up and tie them to her bed, her chair, her toys, and her hair. She thought they were adorable and made her happy.
+
+One day, she saw a big red balloon in the park. It was bigger and brighter than any balloon she had ever seen. She wanted it very much. She ran to the balloon and tried to grab it, but it was tied to a bench. She looked around and saw a man sitting on the bench. He was reading a book and did not notice her.
+
+"Excuse me, sir, can I have your balloon?" Lily asked politely.
+
+The man looked up and saw Lily. He smiled and said, "Sure, you can have it. It's a gift for my niece, but she's not here yet. You can take it if you like."
+
+Lily was overjoyed. She thanked the man and untied the balloon. She held it tightly and ran back to her mom, who was waiting for her near the swings.
+
+"Look, mom, look what I got!" Lily shouted, showing her the balloon.
+
+"That's a very nice balloon, honey. Where did you get it?" her mom asked.
+
+"A nice man gave it to me. He said it was a gift for his niece, but she's not here yet. So he let me have it," Lily explained.
+
+Her mom frowned. She had a bad feeling about this. She looked around and saw the man on the bench. He was looking at them with a strange expression. He did not look nice at all. He looked angry and mean.
+
+"Lily, I think we should give the balloon back. It's not ours. It belongs to his niece. Maybe she's coming soon. We don't want to make him or his niece sad, do we?" her mom said.
+
+Lily did not want to give the balloon back. She loved it too much. She shook her head and said, "No, mom, no. It's mine. He gave it to me. He said I can have it. I want it. I want it. I want it."
+
+Her mom tried to reason with her, but Lily would not listen. She held the balloon tighter and started to cry. She did not notice that the balloon was getting bigger and bigger. It was filling up with air and stretching. It was about to pop.
+
+The man on the bench saw this. He knew what was going to happen. He had planned it all along. He had filled the balloon with something that would make a loud noise and scare Lily. He wanted to teach her a lesson for taking his balloon. He wanted to make her cry. He was a very bad man.
+
+He watched as the balloon grew and grew. He waited for the right moment. He smiled wickedly and said, "Three, two, one..."
+
+BOOM!
+
+The balloon exploded. It made a huge noise. It scared Lily and her mom. It scared everyone in the park. Lily dropped the balloon and screamed. She was very scared and very sad. She had lost her balloon. She had lost her happiness.
+
+She ran to her mom and hugged her. Her mom hugged her back and tried to comfort her. She was very sorry and very angry. She had trusted the man. She had been fooled by him. He had hurt her daughter. He had hurt her feelings.
+
+She looked at the man on the bench. He was laughing. He was very happy. He had done what he wanted. He had made Lily cry. He had made her pay.
+
+He did not see the big dog that was running towards him. The dog did not like the noise. The dog did not like the man. The dog wanted to bite him. The dog wanted to make him cry.
+
+The dog jumped on the man and knocked him down. The man screamed. He was very scared and very hurt. He had lost his book. He had lost his smile.
+
+He ran away from the dog and the park. He never came back. He never saw his niece. He never gave her a gift.
+
+He was a very bad man. He got what he deserved.
+Tom and Anna were playing in the park. They saw a big tree with a hole in it. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Maybe there is a treasure," Tom said.
+
+"Or a monster," Anna said.
+
+They walked to the tree and looked in the hole. It was dark and they could not see anything.
+
+"Hello, is anyone there?" Tom shouted.
+
+A voice came from the hole. It was deep and strange.
+
+"Who are you?" the voice asked.
+
+"We are Tom and Anna. We are playing in the park. Who are you?" Tom answered.
+
+"I am the keeper of the tree. I have a staff that can do magic. Do you want to see?" the voice said.
+
+Tom and Anna were curious and scared. They did not know what to do.
+
+"Can we see your staff?" Anna asked.
+
+"Sure, but you have to come inside the hole. It is very cozy and warm," the voice said.
+
+Tom and Anna looked at each other. They did not know if they should trust the voice. It sounded mysterious and friendly, but also a little scary.
+
+"What do you think?" Tom asked Anna.
+
+Anna shrugged. She did not know either.
+
+"Maybe we should go back to the swings," she said.
+
+"Or maybe we should see the staff. It might be fun," Tom said.
+
+They could not decide. They stood by the hole and waited. The voice did not say anything more.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play together. One day, their mom gave them each a plate of food. Ben had a sandwich, some chips, and a carrot. Lily had a sandwich, some grapes, and a broccoli.
+
+"Yuck, I don't like broccoli," Lily said. "Can I have a carrot like Ben?"
+
+"No, you have to eat your broccoli. It is a vegetable and it is good for you," Mom said.
+
+"But I want a carrot. Carrots are vegetables too. And they are orange and crunchy and sweet," Lily said. She looked at Ben's plate and felt envious.
+
+Ben saw that Lily was unhappy. He liked his sister and wanted to share with her. He took his carrot and broke it in half. He gave one half to Lily and kept the other half for himself.
+
+"Here, Lily. You can have some of my carrot. And I can have some of your broccoli. Then we can both have two vegetables," Ben said.
+
+Lily smiled and took the carrot. She gave Ben some of her broccoli. They both ate their food and enjoyed it.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are a good brother," Lily said.
+
+"You're welcome, Lily. You are a good sister," Ben said.
+
+Mom was proud of her twins. She gave them each a hug and a kiss.
+
+"That was very nice of you, Ben, to share with Lily. And that was very nice of you, Lily, to try something new. I love you both very much," Mom said.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. They like to swing, slide and run. But they do not like the big dog that lives near the park. The big dog is loud and scary. Sometimes he barks and chases them.
+
+One day, Tom and Mia are playing in the park. They see the big dog coming. They run to the slide. They climb up and slide down. But the big dog is fast. He runs to the slide too. He jumps and tries to catch them.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tom and Mia shout. They are afraid. They tremble. They do not know what to do.
+
+Then they see Sam. Sam is older. He is popular. He is good at soccer. He is not afraid of the big dog. He hears Tom and Mia. He runs to the slide. He picks up a stick. He waves it at the big dog.
+
+"Go away! Go away!" Sam says. He is brave. He is strong. He makes the big dog go away. He saves Tom and Mia.
+
+"Thank you! Thank you!" Tom and Mia say. They are happy. They are safe. They hug Sam. They think he is a hero. They think he is a success. They want to be his friends. They invite him to play with them.
+
+Sam smiles. He is glad. He likes Tom and Mia. He likes to play in the park. He likes to swing, slide and run. He likes to help. He joins them. They have fun. They are friends.
+Sam and Lily are twins. They like to play together. They have a big yard with many flowers. Mom says they can pick some flowers for her. That is their job today.
+
+Sam and Lily run to the yard. They see many colors. They see red, yellow, pink, and purple. They want to pick them all. They start to pick fast. They want to fill their baskets.
+
+But Sam and Lily do not share. They want the same flowers. They start to fight. They pull and push. They yell and cry. They make a mess. They hurt the flowers. They hurt each other.
+
+Mom hears the noise. She comes to the yard. She sees the mess. She sees the tears. She is angry. She says, "Stop! You are not doing your job. You are being bad. You are not picking flowers. You are picking fights."
+
+Sam and Lily feel sorry. They want to say sorry. But they are too late. Mom takes their baskets. She says, "No flowers for you. Go to your room. You are in trouble." She walks away.
+
+Sam and Lily are sad. They are dizzy. They have no flowers. They have no fun. They have a bad ending.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they find a kite in the park. It is big and red and has a long tail.
+
+"Wow, look at this kite!" Anna says. "Can we fly it?"
+
+"Sure, let's try!" Ben says. He takes the string and runs with the kite. The kite goes up in the air and dances with the wind.
+
+Anna claps her hands and laughs. "It is so pretty! Can I have a turn?"
+
+"Okay, here you go!" Ben says. He gives the string to Anna. She holds it tight and watches the kite.
+
+But then, a big dog comes. It is black and furry and has sharp teeth. It sees the kite and thinks it is a toy. It barks and runs towards the kite.
+
+"Uh-oh, watch out!" Ben says. "The dog wants the kite!"
+
+Anna is scared. She does not want the dog to bite the kite. She does not want to let go of the string. She does not know what to do.
+
+"Help, help!" she cries.
+
+Ben is brave. He is a reliable friend. He picks up a stick and waves it at the dog. He shouts, "Go away, go away! This is our kite, not yours!"
+
+The dog is surprised. It stops and looks at Ben. It does not like the stick. It does not like the shouting. It decides to leave the kite alone. It turns around and runs away.
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They hug each other and smile. They have saved the kite. They are proud of themselves.
+
+"Thank you, Ben!" Anna says. "You are a good friend. You are reliable."
+
+"You are welcome, Anna!" Ben says. "You are a good friend, too. You are brave."
+
+They hold hands and walk back to the park. They fly the kite again and have fun. They are the best friends ever.
+Lila and Ben like to play with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. They can build towers, houses, bridges and more. They have fun making things with blocks.
+
+One day, Lila and Ben decide to make a big tower with all their blocks. They stack the blocks higher and higher, until the tower is taller than them. They are very proud of their tower. They want to show it to Mom and Dad.
+
+But then, Ben sees a red block on the floor. He likes red blocks. He wants to add it to the tower. He runs to get the red block. He does not see Lila's foot. He steps on Lila's toe. Lila says "Ow!" and cries. Ben says "Sorry!" and drops the red block.
+
+The red block hits the tower. The tower is heavy. It cannot stand. It falls down. The blocks split and fly everywhere. The tower is gone. Lila and Ben are sad. They look at the mess.
+
+Mom and Dad hear the noise. They come to see what happened. They see Lila and Ben and the blocks. They hug Lila and Ben. They say "It's okay. It was an accident. We can help you clean up. And we can put a band-aid on Lila's toe. Then you can play with blocks again. But be careful next time." Lila and Ben say "Okay." They smile. They love Mom and Dad. They love playing with blocks.
+One day, Lily and Ben went to the park with Mom. They saw many things in the park: trees, flowers, swings, slides, and birds. Lily liked the birds very much. She pointed at them and said, "Look, Mom, birds! Pretty birds!"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Yes, they are pretty, Lily. Do you know what they are called?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not know the names of the birds. Mom told her some of the names: robin, sparrow, pigeon, and duck. Lily repeated the names and tried to remember them.
+
+Ben did not care about the birds. He wanted to play on the swings. He ran to the swings and pushed one with his hand. He tried to climb on it, but it was too high for him. He could not reach the seat. He felt sad and angry. He frowns and said, "No fair! Swing too high! I want to swing!"
+
+Mom heard Ben and went to help him. She lifted him up and put him on the swing. She pushed him gently and said, "There you go, Ben. Now you can swing. Have fun!"
+
+Ben smiled and said, "Thank you, Mom. I like to swing. Whee!"
+
+Lily watched Ben swing. She wanted to swing too, but she also wanted to see the birds. She saw a purple bird on a branch. She had never seen a purple bird before. She thought it was very beautiful. She walked to the tree and said, "Hello, purple bird. What is your name?"
+
+The purple bird looked at Lily and said, "Hello, little girl. My name is Violet. I am a parrot. I can talk."
+
+Lily was surprised and happy. She said, "Wow, you can talk! You are amazing, Violet. Can I be your friend?"
+
+Violet nodded and said, "Sure, you can be my friend. You are very nice, Lily. Do you want to hear me sing?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, please. I love to hear you sing."
+
+Violet opened her beak and sang a song. She sang about the sun, the sky, the flowers, and the rainbows. She sang with a sweet and clear voice. Lily clapped her hands and said, "You sing very well, Violet. You are the best bird ever!"
+
+Violet smiled and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are the best girl ever!"
+Ben and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the park. They saw a tall tree with many green leaves and red fruits. They wanted to climb the tree and eat the fruits.
+
+"Look, Sam, there is a monkey in the tree!" Ben said. "He is eating the fruits. They must be yummy. Let's go and get some too."
+
+"OK, Ben, but be careful. The tree is very tall and the monkey is very fast. He might not share with us." Sam said.
+
+They ran to the tree and started to climb. The monkey saw them and made a loud noise. He did not like the boys. He wanted to keep the fruits for himself. He threw some fruits at them and tried to scare them away.
+
+"Ow, that hurts!" Ben said. "Stop it, monkey! We just want some fruits. Please share with us."
+
+"No, no, no!" the monkey said. "These are my fruits. Go away, go away, go away!"
+
+The monkey threw more fruits and some sticks at the boys. Ben and Sam tried to dodge them, but they lost their balance and fell from the tree. They landed on the ground with a thud. They felt pain in their arms and legs. They cried and called for help.
+
+The monkey laughed and ate more fruits. He was happy. He had succeeded in keeping the boys away from his tree. He did not care if they were hurt. He was a mean monkey.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, Anna's mom says they can visit Ben's house. Anna is happy. She brings her favorite doll to show Ben.
+
+But when they get to Ben's house, Anna sees that Ben has many toys. He has cars, trains, blocks, and animals. Anna wants to play with them, but Ben does not want to share. He says they are his toys and Anna can only look.
+
+Anna is sad. She asks Ben, "Can we share your toys? Sharing is good. We can have more fun together."
+
+Ben shakes his head. He says, "No, these are my toys. You have your doll. Go play with your doll."
+
+Anna feels troubled. She does not like Ben's words. She thinks Ben is not a good friend. She says, "But I want to play with you. You are my friend. Friends share."
+
+Ben does not listen. He plays with his toys alone. He makes loud noises and ignores Anna.
+
+Anna's mom sees that Anna is troubled. She goes to her and says, "What's wrong, Anna? Are you not having fun?"
+
+Anna tells her mom what Ben said. She says, "Ben does not want to share his toys. He is not a good friend. I want to go home."
+
+Anna's mom hugs her and says, "I'm sorry, Anna. Some children are not good at sharing. They need to learn how to be kind and generous. Maybe Ben will learn one day. But you are a good friend. You know how to share. I'm proud of you."
+
+Anna smiles and says, "Thank you, mom. Can we go home now?"
+
+Anna's mom nods and says, "Yes, we can. Let's say goodbye to Ben and his mom."
+
+Anna and her mom say goodbye to Ben and his mom. Ben does not say anything. He still plays with his toys alone.

+
+She was very happy with her drawing. She showed it to her mom. "Look, mom, this is my elephant. Do you like it?" she asked.
+
+Mom looked at the drawing and smiled. "It's very nice, Sara. But do you know what color elephants are in real life?" she asked.
+
+Sara thought for a moment. She had seen elephants in books and on TV. They were gray or brown. "They are not brilliant?" she asked.
+
+Mom shook her head. "No, they are not. But that's OK. You can use your imagination and change them however you want. That's the fun of drawing. You can make your own world," she said.
+
+Sara nodded. She liked her brilliant elephant. She thought it was special and beautiful. She decided to keep it and hang it on her wall.

+
+The bird is angry and squawks. It pecks at the window and flaps its wings. Lily is sad and cries. She closes the window and runs to her mom. She hugs her mom and says, "Mom, a big bird tried to take my bracelet! It was mean and loud!"
+
+Mom hugs Lily and says, "Don't worry, Lily. The bird is gone now. Your bracelet is safe. You are brave and smart. I love you and your bracelet." She kisses Lily and rocks her on her chair. Lily feels better and smiles. She rocks with her mom and sings a song. She sings about the sun, the moon, the stars, and her bracelet. Her bracelet is very pretty.

+Lily and Ben are best friends. They like to play with their toys, read books, and eat snacks. One day, they decide to make a cake for their mommies. They ask for help from Ben's big sister, Anna.
+
+Anna helps them mix the flour, the eggs, the milk, and the sugar in a big bowl. She tells them to squeeze the lemon to get some juice. Lily and Ben take turns to squeeze the lemon.

They love their mommies and their cake.
+One day, a soldier came to the park where Lily and Ben played. He wore a green suit and a big hat. He had a bag with many things inside. He smiled and said hello to the children.
+
+"Hi, soldier. What are you doing?" Lily asked.
+
+"I am gathering some things for my friends. They are far away and need some help. Do you want to see what I have?" the soldier said.
+
+"Yes, please!" Ben said.
+
+The soldier opened his bag and showed the children some of the things he had. He had a book, a ball, a blanket, a cup, and a banana.
+
+"These are all very nice. Can we play with them?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, you can play with them for a little while. But then I have to go and give them to my friends. They are waiting for me," the soldier said.
+
+The children played with the things the soldier had. They read the book, bounced the ball, wrapped the blanket, drank from the cup, and shared the banana. They had a lot of fun.
+
+"Thank you, soldier. You are very kind. And you have very flexible things. They can do many things," Ben said.
+
+"You are very welcome, children. You are very smart and polite. And you are right, these things are flexible. They can help my friends in many ways. But now I have to go. Goodbye, Lily and Ben. Have a nice day," the soldier said.
+
+He put the things back in his bag and waved to the children. Then he walked away.
+
+"Goodbye, soldier. Thank you for letting us play. We hope your friends are happy," Lily and Ben said.
+
+They waved back to the soldier. Then they continued to play in the park. They were happy too.
+Lila and Tom are best friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pile of leaves. They run to the pile and jump in. The leaves are soft and crunchy. They laugh and have fun.
+
+"Let's make a house with the leaves!" Lila says. She grabs some leaves and covers a bench with them. Tom helps her. They make a roof and a door. They pretend the bench is their house.
+
+"Wow, our house is amazing!" Tom says. He knocks on the door. "Can I come in?"
+
+"Of course, you can!" Lila says. She opens the door and lets him in. They sit on the bench and pretend to have tea and cookies. They talk and giggle.
+
+They are happy in their leaf house. They do not see the big dog that comes to the park. The dog smells the leaves and runs to the pile. He jumps in and scatters the leaves everywhere. He barks and wags his tail.
+
+Lila and Tom are surprised. They see the dog and scream. Their house is gone. They are scared of the dog. They run away from the pile and look for their mom and dad.
+
+"Mom, Dad, help!" they cry. "A big dog ruined our house!"
+
+Their mom and dad hear them and come to them. They hug them and calm them down. They see the dog and smile. They know the dog. He is their neighbor's dog. He is friendly and playful.
+
+"His name is Spot," their dad says. "He likes to play with leaves. He did not mean to ruin your house. He just wanted to have fun."
+
+Lila and Tom look at the dog. He looks at them and wags his tail. He licks their faces and makes them laugh. They are not scared anymore. They pet the dog and say hello.
+
+"Maybe we can play with him next time," Lila says.
+
+"Maybe we can make a new house with him," Tom says.
+
+They smile and nod. They are still best friends. They are still happy.
+Tom and Lily like to play with their toys in the bath. They have a big whale that can squirt water from its mouth. They also have some blocks with numbers on them. They like to make the whale number the blocks with water.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily were having fun with the whale and the blocks. They made the whale number one, two, three, four, and five. Then they made the whale number six, seven, eight, nine, and ten. They were very proud of their counting.
+
+But then, the whale got too excited and squirted water everywhere. The water splashed on the floor, on the wall, on the mirror, and on Tom and Lily. They got very wet and soapy. They laughed and screamed.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see what was going on. She saw the wet mess and the happy children. She smiled and shook her head. She said, "You two are very clever, but you also make a lot of trouble. Let's dry you off and clean up this bath."
+
+Tom and Lily said sorry to Mom and gave her a hug. They still liked to play with the whale and the blocks, but they learned to be more careful with the water.
+Sara and Ben are squirrels who live in a big tree. They like to play and find nuts in the forest. One day, they see a big pile of nuts near a pond. They run to get some, but they are not alone. A duck is guarding the nuts.
+
+"Quack, quack, these are my nuts!" the duck says. "Go away, squirrels!"
+
+"But we are hungry, and we like nuts too!" Sara says.
+
+"Too bad, these are mine! I found them first!" the duck says.
+
+Ben has an idea. He whispers to Sara, "You distract the duck, and I will dive and get some nuts."
+
+Sara nods and runs to the other side of the pond. She makes a lot of noise and waves her tail. The duck turns to look at her.
+
+"Hey, duck, look at me! I am a colorful squirrel! I have red, blue, and green fur!" Sara lies.
+
+The duck is curious and swims to Sara. He wants to see her colorful fur.
+
+Ben sees his chance and dives into the pond. He grabs some nuts and swims back to the shore. He puts them in a safe place and dives again. He does this until he has enough nuts for both of them.
+
+Sara sees that Ben is done and stops making noise. She runs to join him. They are happy and proud of their plan.
+
+The duck realizes that he has been tricked. He looks at the pile of nuts and sees that it is much smaller. He is angry and sad.
+
+"Quack, quack, you are bad squirrels! You stole my nuts!" the duck says.
+
+"Sorry, duck, but we need nuts too. You have plenty left. Why don't you share?" Ben says.
+
+The duck thinks for a moment. He feels sorry for being greedy. He decides to share his nuts with the squirrels.
+
+"Okay, okay, you can have some nuts. But only some. And don't lie to me again!" the duck says.
+
+"Thank you, duck. We are sorry for lying to you. You are a nice duck." Sara says.
+
+The duck, Sara, and Ben become friends. They share the nuts and enjoy the pond. They learn to be kind and fair to each other. They have fun and play together.

+Tom was a big dog who liked to protect his family. He barked at strangers and chased away cats. He slept in a small house in the yard, but sometimes he wished he could sleep inside with his family.
+
+One day, Tom saw a new thing in the yard. It was a cage with a bird inside. The bird was yellow and blue and sang a pretty song. Tom was curious and went closer to the cage. He sniffed the bird and wagged his tail.
+
+"Hello, dog," the bird said. "I am Polly. I am a pet, like you. But I live in a cage, not a house. It is tight and I cannot fly."
+
+"Why do you live in a cage?" Tom asked. "Don't you want to be free?"
+
+"I do, but my family loves me and keeps me safe. They feed me and play with me and talk to me. They say I am a good bird. But sometimes I dream of flying in the sky."
+
+Tom felt sorry for Polly. He wanted to help her. He thought of a plan. He said, "I will protect you, Polly. I will take you out of the cage and let you fly. Then you can come back and be with your family. They will not be angry, they will be happy. Trust me, I am a good dog."
+
+Polly was scared, but she also wanted to try. She said, "OK, Tom. I will trust you. But be careful, the cage is locked."
+
+Tom was strong and smart. He used his teeth and paws to open the cage. He lifted Polly out and put her on his back. He said, "Hold on, Polly. I will run and you will fly."
+
+Tom ran as fast as he could. Polly felt the wind in her feathers and the sun on her face. She spread her wings and flew off Tom's back. She was happy and free.
+
+But then, she heard a loud noise. It was a hawk, a big and mean bird. It saw Polly and wanted to eat her. It swooped down and grabbed Polly in its claws. Polly screamed and Tom barked.

+
+Polly was hurt and scared. She thanked Tom and said, "You are a good dog, Tom. You saved me. But I learned a lesson. I don't want to fly anymore. I want to stay in my cage and be safe. It is tight, but it is home."
+
+Tom nodded and said, "I understand, Polly. I also learned a lesson. I don't want to sleep inside anymore. I want to stay in my house and protect my family. It is small, but it is mine."
+
+Tom and Polly returned to the yard. Their families were happy to see them. They hugged them and praised them and gave them treats. They said, "You are good pets, Tom and Polly. We love you."

+
+"Mom, can I have the leash, please?" she asked.
+
+"Sure, honey, but be careful. The leash is long and you are small. You don't want to trip over it or get tangled in it," her mom said.

+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" she sobbed.
+
+Her mom heard her cry and ran to her. She picked her up and hugged her. She checked her knee and put a band-aid on it.
+
+"I'm sorry, honey. Are you okay?" she asked.
+
+Lily nodded and sniffled. She saw Spot coming back to them. He licked her face and wagged his tail. He was sorry, too.
+
+Lily hugged Spot and said, "It's okay, boy. I love you. But next time, I will hold the leash with one hand and hold mom's hand with the other. That way, we won't get hurt."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "That's a good idea, Lily. You are a smart girl. And you know what? You have five toys now. You have one doll, two cars, three balls, four books, and one leash. Can you count them for me?"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Yes, mom. One, two, three, four, five. I have five toys. And I have you and Spot. I have everything I need."

+She closed her eyes and fell asleep, without any more nightmares.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to look at bugs and flowers with their microscope. It was a big toy that made things look bigger.
+
+"Look, Anna, I found a ladybug!" Ben said, holding a leaf under the microscope. "It has red spots and black legs."
+
+"Wow, it's so pretty!" Anna said, leaning closer. "Can I hold it?"
+
+"Okay, but be gentle," Ben said, handing her the leaf.
+
+Anna took the leaf and smiled. She wanted to see the ladybug better. She moved the leaf closer to her face. But she moved it too fast. The ladybug flew away.
+
+"Oh no!" Anna said, feeling guilty. "I scared it!"
+
+Ben was sad. He liked the ladybug. He wanted to look at it more. He looked at Anna with a frown.
+
+"You made it go away!" he said, crossly. "That was not nice!"
+
+Anna felt bad. She did not mean to make the ladybug go away. She wanted to make Ben happy. She looked around and saw a big rock. It was gray and smooth.
+
+"Look, Ben, I found a rock!" she said, picking it up. "It's heavy and hard. Maybe it has something inside. Do you want to see?"
+
+Ben looked at the rock. He was curious. He liked rocks. Maybe the rock had a fossil or a crystal inside. He nodded.
+
+"Okay, let's see," he said, taking the rock. He put it under the microscope. He saw some lines and dots on the rock.
+
+"Wow, it's cool!" he said, forgetting the ladybug. "It has patterns and colors. Do you see?"
+
+Anna looked under the microscope. She saw the lines and dots. She agreed.
+
+"Yes, it's cool!" she said, feeling happy. "It's a special rock. Do you want to share it?"
+
+Ben smiled. He was not cross anymore. He liked Anna. He liked to share.
+
+"Yes, let's share it," he said, giving her a hug. "You're a good friend."
+
+Anna hugged him back. She was not guilty anymore. She was a good friend.
+
+They played with the rock and the microscope. They looked at more bugs and flowers. They had fun. They were happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two buttons for eyes. They were very happy.
+
+But then, a grumpy man came out of his house. He saw the snowman in front of his door. He did not like it. He shouted at Lily and Ben.
+
+"Go away, you naughty children! You are blocking my door with your silly snowman! I will freeze it with my hose and then it will melt!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They did not want their snowman to freeze and melt. They ran to their mom, who was watching them from the window.
+
+"Mom, mom, help us! The grumpy man wants to freeze our snowman!" they cried.
+
+Mom came out and talked to the grumpy man. She was very nice and polite. She explained that Lily and Ben were just having fun and that they would move their snowman later. She asked him to be kind and let them play.
+
+The grumpy man felt a little sorry. He realized that he was too harsh and mean. He apologized to Lily and Ben and said they could keep their snowman. He even gave them a cookie each.
+
+Lily and Ben smiled and thanked him. They moved their snowman to the side of the door, so he could still see it. They invited the grumpy man to play with them. He agreed and joined them. He was not so grumpy anymore. They all had fun in the snow.
+Tommy was very hungry when he woke up. He ran to the kitchen and saw a big box of cereal on the table. The cereal was colorful and had many shapes. Tommy wanted to eat it all by himself.
+
+He grabbed the box and poured some cereal into a bowl. He did not ask his mom or dad for help. He did not use a spoon or a cup. He just used his hands and mouth. He made a big mess on the table and on the floor.
+
+His mom came into the kitchen and saw the mess. She was not happy. She said, "Tommy, what are you doing? You cannot eat cereal like that. You have to share and be polite. And you have to use a spoon and a cup. And you have to clean up after yourself."
+
+Tommy felt bad. He did not want to make his mom angry. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I was very hungry and I liked the cereal. It was colorful and fun. But I did not think about you or dad or the mess. I was selfish and rude."
+
+His mom smiled and hugged him. She said, "It's okay, Tommy. I'm glad you like the cereal. But you have to learn to relax and be patient. You have to wait for your turn and ask for help. And you have to respect the rules and the things around you. That is how you show love and kindness."
+
+Tommy nodded and said, "I understand, mom. I will try to relax and be patient. I will share and be polite. And I will clean up the mess. I love you, mom."
+
+His mom said, "I love you too, Tommy. Now, let's have some cereal together. And let's use a spoon and a cup. And let's enjoy the colorful shapes."
+Sam and Lily were hungry. They wanted to eat spaghetti for lunch. Mom cooked spaghetti in a big pot. She put some sauce and cheese on top. It smelled good.
+
+"Can we have some, Mom?" Sam asked.
+
+"Yes, but be careful. It is hot," Mom said. She gave them each a plate and a fork.
+
+Sam and Lily sat at the table. They tried to twirl the spaghetti with their forks. But it was hard. The spaghetti was long and slippery. Some of it fell on the floor. Some of it stuck to their faces.
+
+"Look at me, Lily. I have a spaghetti beard," Sam said. He laughed.
+
+"You look funny, Sam. But I have a spaghetti hat," Lily said. She put some spaghetti on her head. She giggled.
+
+Mom came to the table. She saw the mess. She was not happy.
+
+"Sam and Lily, what are you doing? You are supposed to eat the spaghetti, not play with it," Mom said.
+
+"Sorry, Mom. We were having fun," Sam and Lily said.
+
+"Well, fun is good, but not with food. Now your spaghetti is cold and dry. Do you still want to eat it?" Mom asked.
+
+Sam and Lily looked at their plates. The spaghetti did not look good. It looked yucky.
+
+"No, thank you, Mom. We are not hungry anymore," Sam and Lily said.
+
+"Then you have to clean up the mess. And next time, please eat your spaghetti before it gets dry," Mom said.
+
+Sam and Lily nodded. They took a cloth and a broom. They reached for the spaghetti on the floor and on the table. They put it in the trash. They wiped their faces and hands. They said sorry to Mom.
+
+Mom hugged them. She was not angry anymore. She loved them.
+
+"Maybe next time, we can have something else for lunch. Something easier to eat. Like soup or sandwiches. What do you think?" Mom asked.
+
+Sam and Lily smiled. They liked soup and sandwiches. They said yes to Mom. They were happy.
+Tim and Kim are twins who love cheese. They like to eat cheese with bread, cheese with fruit, and cheese with crackers. But they do not like to share cheese with each other.
+
+One day, Mom gives them a big block of cheese and a knife. She says, "You can cut some cheese for your snack, but be careful with the knife and be patient with each other."
+
+Tim and Kim nod and smile. They take the cheese and the knife to the table. Tim grabs the knife and says, "I will cut the cheese first. I want the biggest piece."
+
+Kim says, "No, that's not fair. I want to cut the cheese too. Let me have the knife."
+
+They start to pull the knife from each other. They are not careful and they are not patient. They are angry and loud.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to the table. She sees them fighting over the knife and the cheese. She is not happy. She says, "Stop it, Tim and Kim. You are being naughty and dangerous. You could hurt yourself or each other with the knife. And you are wasting the cheese. Look, you have squeezed it so hard that it is squished and crumbly."
+
+Tim and Kim look at the cheese. They see that Mom is right. They have squeezed the cheese so much that it is not nice and smooth anymore. They feel sorry and ashamed. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We were not careful and patient. We were selfish and greedy. Can we have another chance?"
+
+Mom says, "Yes, you can have another chance. But you have to share the cheese and the knife. And you have to be gentle and kind. Can you do that?"
+
+Tim and Kim nod and hug. They say, "Yes, Mom. We can do that. We love you and we love cheese. Thank you for the snack."
+
+Mom smiles and hugs them back. She says, "You are welcome, Tim and Kim. I love you too. And I love cheese. Can I have some too?"
+
+They say, "Yes, Mom. You can have some too. We have enough cheese for everyone."
+
+They cut the cheese into small pieces and share them with Mom. They eat the cheese with bread, cheese with fruit, and cheese with crackers. They are careful and patient. They are happy and quiet. They enjoy their snack.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big red car that they could sit in and pretend to drive. They liked to take turns driving the car around the living room, making vroom-vroom noises.
+
+One day, Ben was driving the car and Lily was waiting for her turn. She watched Ben go around the sofa, the table, and the chair. She counted to ten in her head, then said, "Ben, it's my turn now. Give me the car, please."
+
+Ben did not want to give up the car. He liked the car too much. He said, "No, Lily, I'm not done yet. I want to drive more. The car is so comfortable and fun."
+
+Lily did not like Ben's answer. She felt angry and sad. She said, "That's not fair, Ben. You always drive the car for too long. You never share. You're a bad brother."
+
+Ben did not like Lily's words. He felt hurt and mad. He said, "That's not true, Lily. You always complain and whine. You're a mean sister."
+
+Ben and Lily started to yell at each other. They did not listen to each other. They did not care about each other. They only cared about the car.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw Ben and Lily fighting over the car. She felt disappointed and worried. She said, "Ben and Lily, stop it right now. What are you doing? Why are you arguing over the car?"
+
+Ben and Lily stopped yelling and looked at Mom. They felt ashamed and sorry. They said, "We're sorry, Mom. We both wanted to drive the car. We both like the car. We both said bad words."
+
+Mom said, "I understand that you both like the car, but you have to learn to share and take turns. The car is big enough for both of you. You can drive it together, or you can switch after a few minutes. You don't have to fight and hurt each other. You're twins, you're siblings, you're friends. You should love and respect each other."
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and hugged Mom. They said, "We love you, Mom. We love each other, too. We're sorry for being selfish and rude. We'll share and take turns from now on."
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them back. She said, "I love you, too, Ben and Lily. I'm proud of you for saying sorry and making up. Now, why don't you go and play with the car nicely?"
+
+Ben and Lily agreed and went to the car. They decided to drive it together, one steering and one honking. They made vroom-vroom noises and laughed. They had fun and forgot their fight. They were happy and comfortable.
+Tom and Mia liked to play on the beach. They made sand castles and dug holes. They did not care about the tide. They were ignorant of the water that came and went.
+
+One day, they played too far from their mom. They did not hear her call them. They did not see the tide come in. They were busy with their sand castles and holes.
+
+"Look, Mia, I made a big tower!" Tom said.
+
+"Wow, Tom, that's great! I made a deep hole!" Mia said.
+
+They did not notice the water around their feet. They did not feel the wet sand. They did not see the waves get bigger and bigger.
+
+Suddenly, a big wave came and washed away their sand castles and holes. It also knocked them down and dragged them into the water. They screamed and cried. They were scared and cold.
+
+Their mom heard them and ran to the water. She grabbed them and pulled them out. She hugged them and scolded them.
+
+"Tom, Mia, you were very foolish! You did not pay attention to the tide! You could have drowned! You have to be careful on the beach!" she said.
+
+Tom and Mia were sorry and ashamed. They learned their lesson. They never played too far from their mom again. They always watched the tide. They were not ignorant of the water anymore.
+Anna and Ben were playing with their dolls in the garden. They liked to pretend that their dolls were friends and had tea parties and adventures. Anna had a pink doll with long hair and a dress. Ben had a blue doll with short hair and a hat.
+
+"Can I rub your doll's hair?" Ben asked Anna. "It looks so soft and shiny."
+
+"No, you can't!" Anna said. "You will make it dirty and messy. Go rub your own doll's hair!"
+
+"But my doll's hair is not soft and shiny. It is hard and dull. Please, let me rub your doll's hair for a little bit." Ben begged.
+
+"No, no, no!" Anna shouted. "You are rude and mean. You always want what I have. Go away and leave me alone!"
+
+Anna grabbed her doll and ran away from Ben. Ben felt sad and angry. He wanted to play with Anna and her doll, but she was not nice to him. He threw his doll on the ground and started to cry.
+
+A big dog saw Ben's doll and thought it was a toy. It ran over and picked it up with its mouth. It shook it and bit it and tore it apart. Ben saw the sight and screamed.
+
+"Help! Help! That dog is hurting my doll!" Ben yelled.
+
+Anna heard Ben's scream and came back. She saw the dog and Ben's doll and felt sorry for him. She ran over and threw a stick at the dog. The dog dropped Ben's doll and chased the stick.
+
+"Are you okay, Ben?" Anna asked. "I'm sorry I was rude to you. I didn't mean to make you cry."
+
+Ben picked up his doll and saw that it was broken and dirty. He felt sad and hugged it.
+
+"It's okay, Anna. I'm sorry I was mean to you too. I didn't mean to make you angry." Ben said.
+
+Anna smiled and hugged Ben. She offered him her doll.
+
+"Here, you can rub my doll's hair if you want. It is soft and shiny. Maybe we can fix your doll together." Anna said.
+
+Ben smiled and rubbed Anna's doll's hair. It was soft and shiny. He thanked her and gave her his doll.
+
+"Thank you, Anna. You are a good friend. Maybe we can play with both dolls together." Ben said.
+
+Anna and Ben hugged their dolls and each other. They decided to play with both dolls together and have a tea party and an adventure. They were happy and forgot about the dog and the fight.
+Lila and Tom were playing with their toys in the garden. They liked to pretend they were astronauts and explore different planets. They had a big box that was their spaceship and some balls that were their planets.
+
+"Look, this is the red planet. It is very hot and has rocks and dust," Tom said, holding a red ball.
+
+"And this is the blue planet. It is very cold and has ice and snow," Lila said, holding a blue ball.
+
+They put the balls in the box and got inside. They made noises like a rocket and flew to the planets.
+
+"Let's go to the red planet first," Tom said.
+
+"OK, but be careful. It might be dangerous," Lila said.
+
+They landed on the red planet and got out of the box. They looked around and saw something weird. It was a green creature with four eyes and six legs. It was making a loud sound like a horn.
+
+"Hello, who are you?" the creature said.
+
+Lila and Tom were scared and surprised. They did not know what to say.
+
+"Hello, we are Lila and Tom. We are from the green planet. We are astronauts and we are exploring," Lila said, trying to be brave.
+
+The creature smiled and said, "Nice to meet you, Lila and Tom. I am Zog. I am from the red planet. I am a zog and I am playing."
+
+Lila and Tom smiled back and said, "Nice to meet you, Zog. You are a zog and you are playing. You are very weird, but you are also very friendly."
+
+Zog said, "Thank you, Lila and Tom. You are very weird, too, but you are also very nice. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lila and Tom nodded and said, "Yes, we want to play with you. What do you like to play?"
+
+Zog said, "I like to play with rocks and dust. They are fun and they belong to the red planet. Do you want to try?"
+
+Lila and Tom said, "Yes, we want to try. They look fun and they belong to the red planet."
+
+They followed Zog and played with rocks and dust. They had a lot of fun and learned a lot about the red planet. They also learned that even if someone is weird, they can still be a friend.
+Ben liked to play with his toy cars. He had many cars of different colors and shapes. He made them zoom on the floor, on the table, on the sofa. He liked to make noise with his mouth as he zoomed them. Vroom, vroom, vroom!
+
+One day, he saw a large car outside his window. It was red and shiny. It had four doors and a big trunk. It looked like one of his toy cars, but much bigger. He wondered if it could zoom like his cars. He wanted to see it up close.
+
+He ran to the door and opened it. He ran to the street and waved at the car. He hoped the car would stop and let him see it. He did not see the other car coming from the other side. It was black and fast. It made a loud noise as it zoomed. Honk, honk, honk!
+
+Ben did not hear the noise. He only saw the red car. He did not see the black car. He did not see his mom running after him. He did not see the danger. He only wanted to zoom with the large car.
+
+The black car saw Ben. It tried to stop. It tried to swerve. It was too late. It hit Ben with a big thud. Ben flew in the air and landed on the ground. He did not zoom anymore. He did not make noise anymore. He did not play with his toy cars anymore.
+Lily and Ben like to play with puzzles. They have many puzzles with animals, cars, and flowers. They like to make the puzzles on the floor in the living room.
+
+One day, they find a new puzzle in the closet. It is a big puzzle with a castle and a dragon. Lily and Ben want to try it. They take out the pieces and spread them on the floor.
+
+"Wow, this puzzle is hard," Lily says. "There are so many pieces."
+
+"Let's start with the corners," Ben says. "They are easy to find."
+
+They look for the corner pieces and put them together. They make a frame for the puzzle. Then they look for the pieces that match the colors and shapes.
+
+They work on the puzzle for a long time. They make the castle, the trees, and the sky. They only have a few pieces left. They need to make the dragon.
+
+"Where is the dragon's head?" Lily asks. "I can't find it."
+
+"Maybe it is under the couch," Ben says. He crawls under the couch and looks for the piece.
+
+He sees something shiny. He reaches for it. It is not the dragon's head. It is a coin. He picks it up and smiles.
+
+"Look, Lily, I found a coin!" he says. He stands up and runs to show her.
+
+But he is not careful. He trips over the puzzle and falls. He drops the coin and the puzzle. The pieces fly everywhere. The puzzle is ruined.
+
+Lily gasps. She is angry and sad. She worked hard on the puzzle. She wanted to see the dragon.
+
+"Ben, you are foolish!" she says. "You broke the puzzle. You don't care about the puzzle. You only care about the coin."
+
+Ben feels bad. He is sorry and ashamed. He did not mean to break the puzzle. He wanted to see the dragon too.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," he says. "I was not careful. I was silly. Can we fix the puzzle?"
+
+Lily sighs. She is still angry, but she is also kind. She knows Ben is her brother and he loves her.
+
+"Maybe we can," she says. "But we have to find all the pieces. And we have to start over."
+
+They look for the pieces under the couch, on the table, and behind the curtains. They find most of them, but not all. They are missing the dragon's head.
+
+They start to make the puzzle again. They hope to find the dragon's head. They hope to finish the puzzle. They hope to be careful and not foolish.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to make mud pies and pretend they were chefs. Sara had a big spoon and Ben had a small one. They stirred the mud in a bowl and added some leaves and flowers.
+
+"Look, Ben, our pie is ready!" Sara said. "Let's take it to the gate and show Mommy."
+
+They carried the bowl carefully to the gate. Mommy was talking to a lady on the other side. She did not see Sara and Ben.
+
+"Mommy, Mommy, look at our pie!" Sara shouted.
+
+Mommy turned around and saw the bowl of mud. She was angry.
+
+"Sara, Ben, what have you done? That's not a pie, that's a mess! And you've ruined your clothes and the spoon! Go inside right now and wash up!"
+
+She took the bowl from them and threw it in the trash. Sara and Ben started to cry. They did not understand why Mommy was so mad. They thought their pie was pretty. It had pink flowers on top.
+Lily was a good girl who liked to help her mom. She helped her mom make a cake for dad's birthday. She stirred the batter, poured it in the pan, and licked the spoon. She was very happy.
+
+But when the cake was in the oven, Lily saw something shiny on the counter. It was a ring that mom had taken off to wash her hands. Lily loved the ring. It had a pretty stone that sparkled like a star. She wanted to try it on.
+
+She reached for the ring and put it on her finger. It was too big for her, but she didn't care. She felt like a princess. She twirled around the kitchen, admiring the ring. She didn't hear mom coming back.
+
+Mom saw Lily with the ring and gasped. She ran to her and tried to take it off. But the ring was stuck on Lily's finger. It wouldn't come off. Lily started to cry. She didn't want to lose the ring. She didn't want to hurt her finger. She struggled to pull the ring off, but it only made it worse.
+
+Mom calmed Lily down and hugged her. She told her that the ring was very special. It was a gift from dad when they got married. She said that Lily could wear it when she was older, but not now. She said they had to go to the doctor to get the ring off safely.
+
+Lily nodded and wiped her tears. She was sorry for taking the ring. She wanted to make mom and dad happy. She hoped they would still like the cake. She hoped the doctor would be nice. She hoped her finger would be okay. She learned a lesson that day. She learned that some things are not for playing. She learned that good girls listen to their mom.
+Tom and Lily were brother and sister. They liked to play with their toys, but they had too many. Their mom said they should sell some of their toys to other kids who had no toys. Tom and Lily agreed, but they did not know which toys to sell.
+
+One night, they put all their toys on the floor and looked at them. They tried to pick some toys to sell, but it was difficult. They loved all their toys and did not want to give them away. They started to argue and cry.
+
+"Stop, stop!" their mom said. "You don't have to sell all your toys. Just pick a few that you don't play with anymore. You can keep the rest. And think of how happy you will make other kids who have no toys."
+
+Tom and Lily thought about what their mom said. They looked at their toys again and found some that they did not play with anymore. They put them in a box and smiled.
+
+"Okay, mom, we are ready to sell these toys," Tom said.
+
+"Good job, Tom and Lily," their mom said. "You are very kind and generous. Tomorrow, we will go to the market and sell these toys. And maybe you can buy something new with the money you earn."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and hugged their mom. They were happy to sell some of their toys and help other kids. They put the box by the door and went to bed. They dreamed of the market and the new toys they could buy.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the sand. They had a big bucket and a small shovel. They wanted to make a sand castle. Sara filled the bucket with sand and pressed it hard. Then she turned the bucket over and lifted it up. A nice sand tower came out.
+
+"Look, Ben, I made a tower!" Sara said.
+
+"Wow, that's great, Sara!" Ben said. He took the shovel and started to dig a moat around the tower.
+
+They were having fun until a big dog came running. The dog saw the bucket and thought it was a toy. He grabbed the bucket with his mouth and ran away.
+
+"Hey, that's our bucket!" Sara shouted. She ran after the dog, but he was too fast. Ben followed her.
+
+"Please, dog, release our bucket!" Ben said. He tried to catch the dog, but he was too small.
+
+The dog ran to the other side of the park. He dropped the bucket and started to chase a ball. Sara and Ben reached the bucket, but it was too late. The bucket had a big hole in it.
+
+"Oh no, our bucket is broken!" Sara said. She was very upset. She started to cry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara," Ben said. He hugged her. "Maybe we can find another bucket."
+
+They looked around, but they could not see any other bucket. They felt sad. They decided to go back to their sand castle.
+
+But when they got there, they saw that the wind had blown away their sand tower. There was nothing left of their castle.
+
+"Oh no, our castle is gone!" Ben said. He was upset too. He started to cry.
+
+Sara and Ben sat on the sand and cried together. They had lost their bucket and their castle. They did not want to play anymore.
+Lily and Max were playing with bubble soap in the garden. They blew big and small bubbles that floated in the air. They laughed and chased the bubbles with their hands.
+
+"Look, Lily, I made a giant bubble!" Max said, holding his wand in front of his mouth.
+
+"Wow, Max, that's amazing!" Lily said, clapping her hands. "Can I try?"
+
+"Sure, Lily, here you go." Max gave Lily his wand and took hers.
+
+Lily tried to blow a giant bubble, but she blew too hard and the bubble popped on her face. She felt the soap on her nose and eyes and made a funny face.
+
+"Oops, Lily, you are messy!" Max said, giggling.
+
+Lily wiped her face with her sleeve and giggled too. "It's okay, Max, it's fun to be messy sometimes."
+
+They heard their mom calling them from the house. "Lily, Max, time for lunch!"
+
+"Okay, mom, we're coming!" Lily and Max said.
+
+They ran to the house, but they stopped on the way to blow some more bubbles. They didn't want to delay their lunch, but they also didn't want to stop playing with the bubbles. They decided to blow one more bubble each and then go inside.
+
+They blew their bubbles and watched them fly away. They smiled and hugged each other. They loved playing with bubbles. They hoped they could play with them again after lunch.
+Ben and Sam liked to play in the park. They liked to slide, swing, and run. One day, they saw a new path in the park. It was a zigzag path that went up and down a hill. Ben wanted to try it. He said, "Let's go on the zigzag path. It looks fun."
+
+Sam was not sure. He said, "The path looks dirty and bumpy. Maybe it is not safe. I think we should stay on the grass." But Ben did not listen. He said, "Don't be scared. I will go first and show you. Come on, follow me." He ran to the zigzag path and started to go up and down.
+
+Sam did not want to be left behind. He followed Ben, but he was careful. He looked at the path and saw rocks, sticks, and holes. He said, "Ben, slow down. The path is not good. You might fall." But Ben did not hear him. He was having too much fun. He went faster and faster.
+
+Then, something bad happened. Ben hit a big rock and lost his balance. He fell off the path and rolled down the hill. He screamed and cried. He hurt his head, his arm, and his leg. He was dirty and bloody. Sam ran to him and tried to help him. He said, "Ben, are you okay? I'm sorry. I should have stopped you."
+
+But it was too late. Ben was not okay. He was very hurt. He had to go to the hospital. The doctor said he had to stay there for a long time. He had to wear a bandage, a cast, and a brace. He could not play in the park anymore. He was sad and angry. He said, "I wish I had listened to Sam. He was right. The zigzag path was not fun. It was bad. I don't like it. I don't like it at all."
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play together. One day, they are in the kitchen with Mom. Mom is making soup for lunch. She lets Anna and Ben help her.
+
+"Can I stir the soup, Mom?" Anna asks.
+
+"Sure, honey. Here is a big spoon. Be careful, the soup is hot," Mom says.
+
+Anna takes the spoon and stirs the soup slowly. She smells the carrots, the potatoes, and the chicken. She thinks the soup will be yummy and healthy.
+
+"Can I stir the soup, too, Mom?" Ben asks.
+
+"Of course, sweetie. You can take turns with Anna. Stirring the soup is fun, right?" Mom says.
+
+Ben nods and waits for his turn. He watches Anna stir the soup. He sees the bubbles and the steam. He hears the soup make noises. He thinks the soup will be tasty and healthy.
+
+Mom smiles and hugs Anna and Ben. She is proud of her helpers. She says, "You are doing a great job, my loves. The soup is almost ready. Let's set the table and wash our hands."
+
+Anna and Ben put down the spoon and follow Mom. They are hungry and excited. They can't wait to eat the soup. They know it will make them strong and healthy.
+
+After lunch, Anna and Ben are full and happy. They thank Mom for the soup. They say, "We love you, Mom. You make the best soup ever."
+
+Mom says, "I love you, too, my darlings. You are the best helpers ever."
+
+Anna and Ben give Mom a big kiss. They go to their room and play with their toys. They are tired and sleepy. They decide to take a nap. They climb into their bed and cuddle. They close their eyes and dream of soup. They are warm and healthy.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a deer in the park. The deer is brown and has big ears and horns. Anna and Ben want to touch the deer.
+
+"Can we go near the deer, mom?" Anna asks.
+
+"No, dear. The deer is wild. It may be scared of us and run away. Or it may be angry and hurt us. We should stay away and watch from here," mom says.
+
+But Anna and Ben do not listen to mom. They sneak away from mom and dad and run towards the deer. The deer sees them and gets scared. It runs away fast. But it does not see a car on the road. The car hits the deer and makes a loud noise. The deer falls down and does not move.
+
+Anna and Ben are shocked and sad. They run back to mom and dad and cry.
+
+"Mom, dad, we are sorry. We did not listen to you. We wanted to touch the deer. But the deer got hit by a car. Is the deer okay?" Ben says.
+
+Mom and dad hug Anna and Ben and try to calm them down.
+
+"We are sorry too, kids. The deer is not okay. The deer is hurt very bad. The deer may die. You should not have gone near the deer. The deer was healthy and happy in the park. But you scared the deer and made it run to the road. You should always listen to us and respect the animals. They have feelings too. They want to live and be free. Do you understand?" mom says.
+
+Anna and Ben nod and say yes. They feel very bad and regret what they did. They wish they could say sorry to the deer and make it better. They learn a lesson. They promise to never do that again. They promise to be good and kind to all living things.
+Anna and Ben are twins. They live in a big city with many lights and cars. They like to go to the park with their mom and dad. Sometimes they see birds and dogs and flowers.
+
+One day, mom and dad take them to a special place. It is a big house with many seats and a big stage. Mom and dad say they will see a show. Anna and Ben are excited. They sit in their seats and wait.
+
+The lights go off. It is very dark. Anna and Ben feel scared. They hold mom and dad's hands. Then, they hear music and see people on the stage. They are wearing funny clothes and hats. They sing and dance and tell jokes. Anna and Ben laugh and clap. They like the show. They are not scared anymore.
+
+The show ends. The people on the stage bow and smile. The people in the seats stand up and applaud. They make a lot of noise. Anna and Ben join them. They applaud too. They are happy.
+
+Mom and dad take them to the exit. They say they are proud of them. They say they did a good job. Anna and Ben hug them. They say they love them. They say they love the show. They want to see it again.
+Ben and Lily like to play with blocks. They make towers with the blocks. They see who can make the tallest tower. Ben makes a blue tower. Lily makes a pink tower. They count the blocks in their towers.
+
+Ben has ten blocks in his tower. Lily has nine blocks in her tower. Ben says, "I win! I have more blocks than you!" Lily says, "No, you don't win! My tower is prettier than yours!" They argue and push each other's towers. The towers fall down and the blocks scatter.
+
+Mom comes and sees the mess. She is not happy. She says, "Ben and Lily, why did you break your towers? You should share and play nicely." Ben and Lily feel sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We were silly. We both like to make towers." Mom says, "It's okay. I forgive you. But you have to clean up the blocks now."
+
+Ben and Lily pick up the blocks and put them in a box. They say, "We are sorry, blocks. We will not break you again." They hug each other and say, "We are friends. We both like to make towers." Mom smiles and says, "That's good. I'm proud of you. Now, who wants a snack?" Ben and Lily say, "We do! We do!" Mom says, "I have some cookies for you. They are delicious." Ben and Lily say, "Yay! Thank you, Mom!" They run to the kitchen and eat the cookies. They are happy. They like cookies. They like towers. They like Mom. They like each other. The end.
+Tom and Anna were playing in the garden. They saw a big green thing on a leaf. It was not moving.
+
+"What is that?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe a bug," Anna said.
+
+They went closer and touched it. It was hard and smooth.
+
+"Can we keep it?" Tom asked.
+
+"OK, but we have to be careful. It might break," Anna said.
+
+They put the green thing in a jar and took it to their room. They gave it some leaves and water. They watched it every day.
+
+One day, they saw something strange. The green thing was split in two. There was a crack in the middle. They saw some colors inside.
+
+"Look, look!" Tom shouted.
+
+"What is happening?" Anna wondered.
+
+They saw a butterfly come out of the crack. It had wings with yellow and black spots. It was very pretty.
+
+"Wow, it's a butterfly!" Tom said.
+
+"It was hiding in the green thing!" Anna said.
+
+They opened the jar and let the butterfly fly away. It flew out of the window and into the sky.
+
+"Bye, bye, butterfly!" Tom and Anna said.
+
+They were happy and amazed. They learned something new. They hugged each other and smiled.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play in the sand near the water. One day, they see something small and gray in the water. It has a long tail and many legs.
+
+"What is that?" Tim asks.
+
+"I don't know. Let's catch it!" Sam says.
+
+They run to the water and try to grab the gray thing. But it is fast and swims away.
+
+"Come back, gray thing!" Tim shouts.
+
+They chase the gray thing for a long time. They get wet and tired. They see more gray things in the water. They are shrimps.
+
+"Look, Tim, they are shrimps!" Sam says.
+
+"What are shrimps?" Tim asks.
+
+"They are animals that live in the water. They are good to eat. My mom makes shrimps for dinner sometimes." Sam says.
+
+"Can we eat these shrimps?" Tim asks.
+
+"No, we can't. They are too small and we don't have a pot or a fire. We have to let them go." Sam says.
+
+"Okay, let's let them go. But can we play with them a little more?" Tim asks.
+
+"Sure, let's do that. They are fun to watch." Sam says.
+
+They play with the shrimps for a while. They make them jump and swim. They laugh and have fun. They are happy.
+Lily was a clever princess who liked to read books and draw pictures. She had many friends in the castle, but her best friend was her cat, Snowy. Snowy was white and fluffy and liked to cuddle with Lily.
+
+One day, Lily and Snowy were playing in the garden. They saw a big tree with red apples. Lily wanted to pick some apples for a snack. She climbed the tree and reached for an apple. But she slipped and fell down. She landed on the grass and hurt her knee. It was bleeding and dirty.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Lily cried. Snowy ran to her and licked her face. He wanted to make her feel better.
+
+"Don't worry, Lily," Snowy said. "I will help you. Come on, let's go to the castle. We will find a cloth and some water and wipe your knee. Then it will be clean and stop hurting."
+
+"Thank you, Snowy," Lily said. "You are a good friend. And a clever cat. You can talk!"
+
+Snowy smiled and nodded. He helped Lily stand up and walk to the castle. They found a cloth and some water and wiped Lily's knee. Then they put a bandage on it and gave it a kiss.
+
+"There, all better," Snowy said. "Now, do you want to read a book or draw a picture with me?"
+
+Lily hugged Snowy and said, "I want to do both. And I want to tell you a story. A story about a clever princess and her talking cat."
+
+Snowy purred and said, "I would love to hear that story. And I would love to be in it."
+
+They went to Lily's room and had a fun time. They read, they drew, they told stories. They were happy. They were clever. They were friends.
+Anna likes to keep her white doll with her all the time. She hugs it and talks to it and gives it a name. She calls it Lily. Lily is Anna's best friend. Anna takes Lily everywhere she goes.
+
+One day, Anna goes to the park with her mom and Lily. She sees some other kids playing with their toys. They have cars and balls and animals. Anna wants to play with them, but she is shy. She holds Lily tight and watches them.
+
+One of the kids sees Anna and Lily. He is a boy with a red hat. He likes Lily. He thinks she is pretty and soft. He walks over to Anna and says hello. He asks her what her doll's name is. Anna tells him it is Lily. He asks her if he can hold Lily. Anna is scared. She does not want to give Lily to him. She says no.
+
+The boy with the red hat is sad. He likes Lily. He thinks she is popular. He wants to be friends with Anna and Lily. He says please. He says he will be nice to Lily. He says he will give her back. Anna thinks for a moment. She likes the boy with the red hat. He seems kind and friendly. She decides to share Lily with him. She says yes.
+
+Anna and the boy with the red hat play with Lily. They make her talk and dance and laugh. They have fun. They become friends. Anna is happy. She learns that sharing is good. She learns that Lily can have more friends. She learns that she can keep Lily and still play with others. She hugs Lily and the boy with the red hat. She says thank you. She says she likes them. They smile and say they like her too. They keep playing until it is time to go home.
+Sara liked to play with her toy cars. She had many cars of different colors and sizes. She liked to make them go fast on the floor and make loud noises. She also liked to give some of her cars to her friends when they came to visit. She was very popular and kind.
+
+One day, Sara was playing with her cars in the bathroom. She saw a big hole in the sink. She wondered what was inside. She picked up a red car and put it near the hole. She pushed it a little bit and it fell inside. She heard a splash and then nothing. She was curious and scared.
+
+"Mommy, mommy!" she shouted. "My car went into the hole!"
+
+Mommy came running to the bathroom. She saw Sara crying and pointing at the sink. She understood what happened.
+
+"Oh, Sara, I'm sorry. That hole is called a drain. It takes the water away when we wash our hands or brush our teeth. Sometimes things can go inside the drain and we can't get them back. You have to be careful with your toys."
+
+Sara felt sad and sorry. She hugged mommy and said, "I'm sorry, mommy. I didn't know. I won't do it again. Can we get another car?"
+
+Mommy smiled and kissed Sara. She said, "It's okay, Sara. I know you didn't mean to. We can get another car later. But for now, let's go and play with your other cars. You have so many and they are all very nice. Maybe you can give one to your friend Billy when he comes over. He likes cars too."
+
+Sara nodded and smiled. She dried her tears and followed mommy to her room. She picked up a blue car and said, "This one is for Billy. He will like it. I like to give cars to my friends. They are happy and I am happy too."
+Sara and Ben were playing in the bath. They liked to make bubbles with the soap and splash the water. Sara had a charming duck toy that quacked when she squeezed it. Ben had a boat toy that he sailed around the tub.
+
+"Look at my duck!" Sara said. "She is so pretty and yellow. She can swim and quack and clap her wings."
+
+"Look at my boat!" Ben said. "It is so fast and blue. It can float and zoom and make waves."
+
+Sara and Ben were happy to show each other their toys. But then they wanted to play with each other's toys too.
+
+"Can I have your duck?" Ben asked.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Sara said.
+
+"Can I have your boat?" Sara asked.
+
+"No, it is mine!" Ben said.
+
+Sara and Ben started to tug and pull on the toys. They got angry and shouted. The water spilled over the edge of the tub. The soap slipped out of their hands. The duck and the boat fell on the floor.
+
+"Uh-oh!" Sara and Ben said.
+
+Mom came into the bathroom. She saw the mess and the toys. She was not happy.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom asked. "You made a big mess and you fought over the toys. That is not nice. You have to share and be kind."
+
+Sara and Ben felt sorry. They did not want to make Mom sad. They picked up the toys and gave them back to each other.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara," Ben said. "Your duck is charming. You can have it back."
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," Sara said. "Your boat is fast. You can have it back."
+
+Sara and Ben hugged and smiled. They decided to play together with the duck and the boat. They made bubbles and splashed the water. They quacked and zoomed and clapped their hands.
+
+Mom saw them and smiled too. She was happy to see them share and be kind. She gave them a towel and a kiss.
+
+"Good job, Sara and Ben," Mom said. "You are good friends. Now it is time to get out of the bath and get ready for bed."
+Lila and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the park and make up stories. One day, they saw a big hill with a hole on top. They wondered what it was.
+
+"Maybe it is a volcano," Lila said. "Maybe it can make fire and rocks."
+
+"Wow, that would be cool," Tom said. "But also scary. Do you think it will wake up?"
+
+"I don't know," Lila said. "But I want to see it closer. Come on, let's go."
+
+They ran towards the hill, holding hands. They felt brave and curious. They climbed up the hill, until they reached the hole. They looked inside, but it was dark and quiet.
+
+"Hello, volcano," Lila said. "Are you sleeping?"
+
+There was no answer. Tom and Lila felt a little disappointed. They wanted to see something exciting.
+
+"Maybe we can make it wake up," Tom said. "Maybe we can throw something inside."
+
+He picked up a stick and threw it into the hole. Lila did the same. They waited, but nothing happened.
+
+"Maybe it needs something bigger," Tom said. He looked around and saw a big rock. He tried to lift it, but it was too heavy.
+
+"Help me, Lila," he said. "Let's throw this rock."
+
+Lila helped him, and together they pushed the rock towards the hole. They counted to three and let it go. The rock fell into the hole with a loud thud.
+
+Suddenly, the hole made a loud noise. It sounded like a roar. Tom and Lila saw smoke and sparks coming out of the hole. They realized they had made a mistake. They had woken up the volcano.
+
+"Run, Lila, run!" Tom shouted. "The volcano is angry!"
+
+They turned around and ran down the hill as fast as they could. They felt the ground shake and the heat behind them. They were scared and sorry.
+
+They reached the bottom of the hill and ran to their parents, who were waiting for them. They hugged them tight and told them what had happened. Their parents were shocked and worried.
+
+"Are you okay?" they asked. "Are you hurt?"
+
+"No, we are okay," Tom and Lila said. "But we are sorry. We did a bad thing. We made the volcano wake up."
+
+They looked at the hill, which was now spitting fire and rocks. They felt sorry for the volcano, too. They had disturbed its sleep.
+
+They looked at each other and made a promise.
+
+"We promise we will never do that again," they said. "We promise we will be good and careful."
+
+They hugged each other and their parents. They learned a lesson. They never played with the volcano again.
+Tim and Lily were twins who liked to play in the park. They had a big plastic ball that they could kick and throw. One day, they saw a new thing in the park. It was a spring that could make you jump high. Tim and Lily wanted to try it.
+
+"Let me go first!" Tim said. He was restless and did not like to wait.
+
+"No, me!" Lily said. She was restless too and did not like to share.
+
+They pushed and pulled each other until they both fell on the ground. The plastic ball rolled away and a dog took it.
+
+"Hey, that's our ball!" Tim and Lily shouted. They ran after the dog, but it was too fast. They lost their ball and their chance to play on the spring.
+
+They were sad and angry. They blamed each other for being selfish and rude.
+
+A kind lady saw them and came to help. She had a basket of cookies and gave them some.
+
+"Why are you so upset, children?" she asked.
+
+"We lost our ball and we did not get to play on the spring," Tim and Lily said.
+
+"That's too bad. But you know, you could have avoided this if you had been more patient and polite. Sharing and taking turns are important skills to learn. They make you happier and friendlier. Do you understand?" the lady said.
+
+Tim and Lily nodded. They realized they had been wrong. They said sorry to each other and hugged.
+
+"Thank you, lady, for the cookies and the lesson. Can we be your friends?" they asked.
+
+"Of course, you can. And maybe next time, you can play on the spring together. It's more fun that way," the lady said.
+
+She smiled and walked away. Tim and Lily felt better. They learned a valuable lesson that day. They decided to be more kind and cooperative from then on.
+Sara and Tom are twins. They like to play with toys. One day, they see a new toy in the shop. It is a telephone. It has buttons and sounds. Sara and Tom want to buy the telephone.
+
+They ask their mom. "Mom, can we buy the telephone?" they say. Mom looks at the price. It is too much. "No, we cannot buy the telephone. It is too expensive. We have other toys at home," she says.
+
+Sara and Tom are sad. They go home with mom. They play with their old toys. But they still think about the telephone. They have an idea. They can save their money. They can do chores and help mom. They can buy the telephone later.
+
+They start to save their money. They clean their room. They help with the dishes. They feed the cat. They put their money in a jar. They count their money every day. They are happy.
+
+After a few weeks, they have enough money. They go to the shop with mom. They see the telephone. It is still there. They give their money to the shopkeeper. He gives them the telephone. They are very happy.
+
+They go home with mom and the telephone. They play with the telephone. They pretend to call each other. They make funny sounds. They laugh. They thank mom for letting them buy the telephone. Mom hugs them. She is proud of them. She says, "You are good children. You worked hard and saved your money. You bought the telephone by yourselves. You are safe and happy. I love you."
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the woods. They knew a trail that led to a big tree with a hole. They liked to hide in the hole and whisper secrets to each other.
+
+One day, they saw a new boy in the woods. He was bigger and older than them. He had a mean face and a loud voice. He saw them on the trail and followed them to the tree.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing here?" he shouted. "This is my tree. Get out of my hole!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They did not want to leave their hole. They whispered to each other.
+
+"What should we do?" Lily asked.
+
+"Maybe we can share the hole?" Ben suggested.
+
+They came out of the hole and tried to talk to the boy.
+
+"Hello, we are Lily and Ben. We like this tree too. Can we play with you?" Ben said.
+
+The boy laughed. He pushed Ben to the ground. He grabbed Lily's hair. He was very hard and mean.
+
+"Go away, you little rats. This is my tree. You can't play with me. I don't like you." he said.
+
+Lily and Ben cried. They ran away from the boy and the tree. They felt sad and hurt.
+
+They found their mom and told her what happened. She hugged them and kissed them.
+
+"I'm sorry, my loves. That boy was very rude and wrong. He should not have treated you like that. You were very brave and kind to try to share and be friends. But some people are not nice and do not want to share or be friends. You should stay away from them and find other people who are nice and want to share and be friends. That is the best way to be happy and safe." she said.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They learned a lesson. They decided to look for another trail and another tree. They hoped to find other nice kids who liked to play and whisper secrets. They knew that sharing and being kind was better than being hard and mean.
+Anna and Ben like to play with sand. They have a big bucket and a small shovel. They want to make a castle with sand. They find a good spot near the water.
+
+"Let's add some water to the sand," Anna says. "It will make the sand stick together."
+
+"Good idea," Ben says. He fills the bucket with water and pours some on the sand. Anna mixes the sand and the water with the shovel. They make a big pile of wet sand.
+
+"Now let's shape the castle," Ben says. He uses the shovel to make a square base. Anna uses her hands to make a round tower. They add more sand and water to make the castle bigger and taller.
+
+"Look at our castle," Anna says. "It's so big and pretty."
+
+"It's the best castle ever," Ben says. They smile and hug each other.
+
+But then a funny thing happens. A big wave comes and splashes on the sand. The water washes away the castle. Anna and Ben gasp and watch their castle disappear.
+
+"Oh no," Anna says. "Our castle is gone."
+
+"That's okay," Ben says. "We can make another one."
+
+"Or we can do something else," Anna says. "Like swim or dig or chase the birds."
+
+"Or we can do all of that," Ben says. He takes Anna's hand and they run to the water. They laugh and play and have fun. They don't mind that their castle is gone. They still have each other.
+Lily was a painter. She liked to make pictures with many colors. She had a big box of paints and brushes. She always put a paper on the floor before she painted, so she would not make a mess.
+
+One day, Lily wanted to paint a rainbow. She took out her red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple paints. She started to make a big arc with red. But then, she saw her brother Max. Max was not a painter. He liked to play with cars and trucks. He saw Lily's paints and wanted to play with them.
+
+"Can I have some paints?" Max asked.
+
+"No, these are mine. Go away!" Lily said.
+
+"But I want to play with them. They look fun!" Max said.
+
+He did not listen to Lily. He grabbed the yellow paint and poured it on the paper. He made a big yellow blob on Lily's rainbow.
+
+"Hey, stop it! You ruined my rainbow!" Lily shouted.
+
+She was very angry. She took the blue paint and splashed it on Max. Max was surprised. He got blue paint on his face and shirt. He grabbed the green paint and threw it at Lily. Lily dodged it, but it hit the wall. They started to fight with the paints. They made a big mess on the paper, the floor, the wall and themselves.
+
+Their mom heard the noise. She came to see what was going on. She saw Lily and Max covered in paint. She saw the paper, the floor and the wall covered in paint. She was very upset.
+
+"What are you doing? Look at this mess! You are not painters, you are troublemakers!" Mom said.
+
+She made Lily and Max clean up the mess. She took away their paints and brushes. She said they could not paint for a week. She said they had to learn to share and be nice.
+
+Lily and Max felt sorry. They said they were sorry to Mom. They said they were sorry to each other. They hugged and said they would not fight again. They learned their lesson. They were intelligent kids. They knew that painting was fun, but fighting was not.
+Lily and Ben like to play pretend. They have a big box of costumes and toys. Lily likes to dress up as a princess. Ben likes to dress up as a prince. They pretend they live in a castle and have many adventures.
+
+One day, they pretend they are going to a ball. Lily puts on a pink dress and a shiny crown. Ben puts on a blue coat and a feather hat. They dance and sing in the living room. They pretend they are happy and fine.
+
+But then, Lily trips over a toy and falls down. She hurts her knee and starts to cry. Ben runs to her and helps her up. He sees her knee is red and sore.
+
+"Don't cry, princess," he says. "I will make it better. I am a prince, and I have magic."
+
+He kisses her knee gently and hugs her. Lily stops crying and smiles. She hugs him back.
+
+"Thank you, prince," she says. "You are very kind and brave. You have magic, indeed."
+
+They go back to playing pretend. They are happy and fine. They are the best of friends.
+Tom and Lily liked to play at the park. They liked to swing on the swings, slide on the slides, and climb on the monkey bars. But their favorite thing was to cross the bridge. The bridge was big and wooden, and it had ropes and planks. It was fun to walk on the bridge and pretend they were pirates or explorers.
+
+One day, they went to the park and saw that many other kids were there. They wanted to play on the bridge, but it was very crowded. Some kids were running, some were jumping, and some were shouting. Tom and Lily felt scared and sad. They did not like the noise and the pushing.
+
+They decided to wait for their turn. They sat on a bench and watched the bridge. They hoped that the other kids would leave soon. They talked to each other and made up stories about the bridge.
+
+"Maybe the bridge is a magic bridge," Tom said. "Maybe it can take us to a different place."
+
+"Where do you want to go?" Lily asked.
+
+"I want to go to the moon," Tom said. "I want to see the stars and the rockets."
+
+"I want to go to the jungle," Lily said. "I want to see the animals and the trees."
+
+They smiled and imagined their adventures. They did not notice that the bridge was getting less popular. Some kids had left, and some had moved to other games. The bridge was now empty and quiet.
+
+"Look, Tom, look!" Lily said. "The bridge is free! We can play on it now!"
+
+They jumped off the bench and ran to the bridge. They held hands and crossed the bridge. They felt happy and brave. They pretended they were going to the moon and the jungle. They had fun on the bridge. They did not care if it was popular or not. They only cared that they had each other.
+Lily was sad. She wanted to play with her uncle, but he was busy. He had to work on his big, thick book. He said it was very important. Lily did not understand. She only wanted to have fun.
+
+She tried to get his attention. She pulled his sleeve. She made funny faces. She sang a loud song. But he did not look at her. He only looked at his book. He said, "Lily, please be quiet. I need to finish this."
+
+Lily felt angry. She did not like his book. She did not like his words. She wanted him to play with her. She wanted him to love her. She grabbed his book and threw it on the floor. She said, "No book! No work! Play with me!"
+
+Her uncle was shocked. He saw his book on the floor. He saw the pages torn and dirty. He saw his work ruined. He was very angry. He yelled at Lily. He said, "Lily, what have you done? This is very bad. You are very naughty. Go to your room. Now!"
+
+Lily was scared. She saw his face. She saw his eyes. She saw his mouth. He was very mad. He did not love her. He hated her. She ran to her room. She slammed the door. She threw herself on her bed. She cried and cried. She felt alone and sad. She wished her uncle would come and hug her. She wished he would say he was sorry. She wished he would say he loved her. But he did not come. He did not say anything. He only worked on his book.
+Sam and Lily were playing in the pool. They liked to splash and swim and have fun. Sam saw a big slide and wanted to try it. He said to Lily, "Let's go on the slide. It looks fun."
+
+Lily looked at the slide and felt scared. It was very high and fast. She said to Sam, "No, I don't want to go on the slide. It looks scary."
+
+Sam said, "Don't be scared. It's not scary. It's fun. I dare you to go on the slide with me. If you go, I will give you my towel. It's soft and blue and has a star on it."
+
+Lily liked Sam's towel. It was soft and blue and had a star on it. She wanted to have it. But she was still scared of the slide. She said, "I don't know. What if I fall? What if I get wet?"
+
+Sam said, "You won't fall. You will be safe. And you will get wet anyway. We are in the pool. Come on, Lily. I dare you. It will be fun."
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She wanted to be brave. She wanted to have fun. She wanted Sam's towel. She said, "Okay, Sam. I will go on the slide with you. But you have to hold my hand."
+
+Sam smiled and said, "Okay, Lily. I will hold your hand. Let's go on the slide." He took Lily's hand and they walked to the slide. They climbed up the stairs and sat on the slide. They looked down and saw the water. They felt nervous and excited. They said, "One, two, three, go!" and slid down the slide. They screamed and laughed and splashed into the water. They got wet and had fun.

+They got out of the water and hugged each other. They said, "That was fun. Let's do it again." Sam gave Lily his towel. It was soft and blue and had a star on it. Lily said, "Thank you, Sam. You are a good friend. And you are brave." Sam said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend too. And you are brave too." They dried themselves with the towel and went back to the slide. They had more fun. They were happy.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and hide behind the flowers. Lily had a spray bottle with water. She liked to spray the plants and make them wet.
+
+"Look, Tom, I can spray this vine!" Lily said. She pointed the bottle at a long vine that climbed up the wall. She squeezed the bottle and water came out.
+
+"Stop, Lily, stop!" Tom shouted. He ran to the wall and tried to grab the bottle. "That is not a vine, that is a snake!"
+
+Lily gasped and dropped the bottle. She saw the snake move and hiss. It was angry and scared. It had a red and black pattern on its skin.
+
+"Run, Lily, run!" Tom said. He pulled Lily by the hand and they ran away from the snake. They ran to the house and told their mom what happened.
+
+Mom hugged them and said, "You are brave and smart, Tom and Lily. You did the right thing. That snake is dangerous and can bite. You should never spray or touch it. Next time, be careful and look before you spray."
+Lily and Max were twins who liked to play together. One day, it was very cold and snowy outside. They could not go to the park or ride their bikes. They were bored and sad.
+
+"Mom, can we do something fun?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, honey. Why don't you and Max spend some time by the fireplace? It is very warm and cozy there. You can read some books, draw some pictures, or play with your toys," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Max liked that idea. They put on their slippers and ran to the fireplace. They saw some logs burning and making crackling sounds. They felt the hot air on their faces and hands. They smiled and hugged each other.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a book about animals. Do you want to read it with me?" Max asked.
+
+"Yes, Max, I love animals. Let's read it together. Maybe we can learn some new words," Lily said.
+
+They sat on the rug and opened the book. They saw pictures of lions, elephants, monkeys, and more. They tried to say their names and make their sounds. They had fun and laughed a lot.
+
+Mom watched them from the kitchen. She was happy to see them enjoying themselves. She thought they were very smart and sweet. She made some hot chocolate and cookies for them. She brought them to the fireplace and joined them.
+
+"Here you go, kids. Some treats for you. You have been very good today. I am proud of you," Mom said.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. You are the best. We love you," Lily and Max said.
+
+They drank their hot chocolate and ate their cookies. They felt warm and happy. They thanked the fireplace for keeping them cozy. They hugged Mom and each other. They decided that spending time by the fireplace was not so bad after all.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a big box, some blocks, and a doll. They pretended the box was a castle, the blocks were soldiers, and the doll was a princess.
+
+"Look, I am the king of the castle!" Tom said, putting a paper crown on his head. "You are the queen, and this is our princess. We have to protect her from the bad dragon!"
+
+"Where is the bad dragon?" Lily asked, holding the doll.
+
+"Roar!" A loud noise came from the kitchen. Tom and Lily looked and saw a big shadow on the wall. It had wings, a tail, and sharp teeth. It was the bad dragon!
+
+Tom and Lily were scared. They hugged the doll and ran to the box. They hoped the box would keep them safe. But the bad dragon followed them. It knocked over the blocks and reached for the box.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tom and Lily cried.
+
+"Don't worry, kids, it's just me!" A voice said. The bad dragon shrank and turned into their dad. He was wearing a dragon costume and making funny noises. He smiled and took off the mask.
+
+"Dad, you scared us!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+"I'm sorry, I was just playing with you. Do you like my costume? I made it for Halloween."
+
+"It's a good costume, but it's too scary!" Lily said.
+
+"Maybe you can wear something else for Halloween," Tom said.
+
+"OK, OK, I'll change. But first, how about a hug?" Dad said.
+
+Tom and Lily hugged their dad. They were not scared anymore. They were happy. But they were also cold. The dragon costume was warm, but the living room was not.
+
+"Dad, can we have some hot chocolate?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sure, let's go to the kitchen. And maybe we can find a better costume for me. How about a clown?" Dad said.
+
+"No, clowns are scary too!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+They laughed and went to the kitchen. They had fun with their dad. They forgot about the bad dragon. They drank hot chocolate and ate cookies. They were warm and cozy. They loved their dad. He was the best.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with cars and trucks. One day, they find a big red belt in their dad's closet. They think it is a road for their cars and trucks.
+
+"Look, Sam, a red road!" Tom says. He puts the belt on the floor and drives his car on it. "Beep beep!"
+
+"Can I play too?" Sam asks. He picks up his truck and puts it on the belt. "Vroom vroom!"
+
+But the belt is not very long. Soon, the car and the truck meet on the belt. They cannot go past each other.
+
+"Move, Sam, move!" Tom says. He pushes his car harder on the belt.
+
+"No, you move, Tom, you move!" Sam says. He pushes his truck harder on the belt.
+
+The belt starts to stretch and bend. It makes a loud snap sound. The car and the truck fly off the belt and crash on the floor.
+
+"Oh no, we broke the red road!" Tom and Sam say. They look at the belt. It is torn and twisted.
+
+They hear their dad coming up the stairs. They are scared. They quickly hide the belt under the bed and run to their room.
+
+They hope their dad will not find out. They hope he will not be mad. They hope he will not need his belt.
+Lila and Ben were on a big boat with their mom and dad. They liked to look at the water and the birds and the other boats. One day, they saw a new place with many houses and cars and people. Mom said it was a port, where boats came and went.
+
+"Can we go there, Mom?" Lila asked.
+
+"Yes, we can. We will get off the boat and walk around the port. Maybe we will see some interesting things," Mom said.
+
+Lila and Ben were excited. They put on their hats and shoes and followed Mom and Dad off the boat. They saw many things in the port: big cranes, small shops, colorful flags, loud horns. They also saw some animals: dogs, cats, fish, and even a monkey.
+
+"Look, Ben, a monkey!" Lila said, pointing to a cage on a cart.
+
+"Wow, a monkey!" Ben said, running to the cage. He wanted to touch the monkey, but Mom stopped him.
+
+"Be careful, Ben. The monkey might bite you. You can look, but don't touch," Mom said.
+
+Ben nodded. He looked at the monkey with his big eyes. The monkey looked back at him with its small eyes. It made a funny noise and showed its teeth. Ben laughed.
+
+"Hello, monkey. What is your name?" Ben asked.
+
+The monkey did not answer. It reached out its hand and grabbed Ben's hat. It pulled the hat into the cage and put it on its head. Ben gasped.
+
+"Hey, that's my hat! Give it back, monkey!" Ben said.
+
+The monkey shook its head. It liked the hat. It examined the hat with its fingers. It felt hard and smooth. It was a sailor hat, like the ones the boat people wore.
+
+"Please, monkey, give me my hat. It's mine," Ben said.
+
+The monkey did not listen. It climbed to the top of the cage and waved the hat. It made more funny noises. It was having fun.
+
+Lila and Mom and Dad came to see what was happening. They saw the monkey with Ben's hat. They tried to talk to the monkey, but the monkey did not care. It kept the hat.
+
+"Oh, Ben, I'm sorry. The monkey is very naughty. Maybe we can find you another hat," Mom said.
+
+Ben was sad. He liked his hat. He did not want another hat. He wanted his hat back.
+
+"Maybe the monkey will give it back later, when it gets bored," Dad said.
+
+"Maybe," Ben said. He hoped Dad was right. He looked at the monkey with his sad eyes. The monkey looked at him with its curious eyes. It wondered why Ben was sad. It liked Ben. Ben was funny.
+
+The monkey thought for a moment. Then it took off the hat and threw it to Ben. Ben caught the hat and put it on his head. He smiled.
+
+"Thank you, monkey. You are nice," Ben said.
+
+The monkey smiled too. It nodded. It was glad Ben was happy. It made a friendly noise and waved goodbye.
+
+Lila and Mom and Dad clapped and cheered. They were happy too. They thanked the monkey and the cart man. They said goodbye to the port and went back to the boat. They had a fun day. They learned a lot. They made a new friend.
+Tom liked to play with his toy cars. He had many cars of different colors and sizes. He liked to make them race and crash on the floor. He also liked to make roads and bridges with his blocks.
+
+One day, his mom said, "Tom, I have a surprise for you. You will receive a new toy today. It is very popular and fun. Do you want to see it?"
+
+Tom was very excited. He said, "Yes, mom, yes! What is it? What is it?"
+
+Mom smiled and brought a big box. She opened it and showed Tom a toy truck. It was red and shiny and had big wheels. It also had a button that made it beep and a lever that made it dump.
+
+Tom was very happy. He said, "Wow, mom, thank you! Thank you! It is the best toy ever! Can I play with it now?"
+
+Mom said, "Of course, you can. But be careful, it is not for indoors. It is for outdoors. You can use it to carry and dump soil and sand and rocks. Do you want to go to the backyard and try it?"
+
+Tom said, "Yes, mom, yes! Let's go! Let's go!"
+
+Mom and Tom went to the backyard. There was a pile of soil and a pile of sand. Tom used his new truck to scoop and load and dump the soil and the sand. He made hills and valleys and roads and tunnels. He had so much fun. He said, "I love my new truck, mom. It is the most popular and fun toy ever!"
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play together. But sometimes they also liked to complain about each other. One day, they were playing with their toys in the living room, when Lily saw Ben take her favorite doll.
+
+"Hey, that's mine!" Lily shouted. "Give it back!"
+
+"No, it's mine now!" Ben said. "You have too many dolls!"
+
+They started to pull the doll from each other, making it cry. Their mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong.
+
+"What are you two doing?" she asked. "Why are you fighting over a doll?"
+
+"Lily and Ben both complain a lot. They both want the same doll. They don't share," the doll said in a squeaky voice.
+
+Mom looked surprised. She didn't know the doll could talk. She picked it up and examined it.
+
+"Where did you get this doll?" she asked.
+
+"From the garage sale," Lily said. "It was only one dollar."
+
+Mom frowned. She saw that the doll had stains, rips, and missing hair. It also smelled bad.
+
+"This doll is disgusting," she said. "It's dirty and broken. And it talks too much. You don't need this doll. You have better toys."
+
+She threw the doll in the trash can. Lily and Ben watched in shock.
+
+"But we like the doll," they said.
+
+"Too bad," Mom said. "That's the law. No disgusting dolls in the house. Now go play nicely with your other toys. And don't complain."
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They didn't want to make Mom angry. They went to their room and found some other toys to play with. They didn't complain anymore. They learned their lesson.
+
+The doll was still in the trash can. It was sad and lonely. It wished it had a new home. It also wished it could stop talking. But it couldn't. It was a cursed doll. It kept talking and talking, until the trash truck came and took it away.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to slide, swing and run. They saw a big box near the trees. It was a modern box, with shiny buttons and lights.
+
+"Let's see what's inside!" Lily said.
+
+They opened the box and found a snake. It was long and green and had black spots. It hissed at them.
+
+"Wow, a snake!" Ben said. "Can we keep it?"
+
+"No, we can't," Lily said. "It's not a toy. It's a real animal. It might bite us."
+
+They closed the box and ran away. They told a grown-up about the snake. The grown-up called the zoo. The zoo came and took the snake away.
+
+They said the snake was a rare kind. It had escaped from a truck. They thanked Lily and Ben for finding it.
+
+Lily and Ben were happy. They had a big adventure. They learned a lot about snakes. They went back to play in the park. They hoped to find more modern boxes. But they did not want to find more snakes.
+One day, a lively person named Anna went to the park with her dog, Spot. She liked to run and play with Spot, and throw a ball for him to catch. Spot was a good dog, and always brought the ball back to Anna.
+
+In the park, Anna saw a big pile of dirt. She wondered what was under the dirt. She decided to dig with her hands, and asked Spot to help her. Spot liked to dig, too, and soon they made a big hole in the dirt.
+
+"Look, Spot, what is this?" Anna said, as she pulled out a shiny thing from the hole. It was a necklace, with a heart-shaped pendant. Anna thought it was very pretty, and put it around her neck.
+
+But then, a man came running to them. He looked angry and sad. He shouted at Anna and Spot.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing? That's my wife's necklace! You can't take it! She's buried here, and I miss her very much!"
+
+Anna was scared and sorry. She didn't know that the dirt was a grave, and that the necklace belonged to someone who died. She quickly took off the necklace, and gave it back to the man.
+
+"I'm sorry, sir, I didn't know. I was just curious. Please don't be mad at me and Spot. We didn't mean to hurt you."
+
+The man calmed down, and looked at Anna and Spot. He saw that they were innocent and sincere. He sighed, and said.
+
+"It's okay, I forgive you. You're just a child, and you don't understand. But you should know that some things are not for playing. They are for remembering and respecting. When someone dies, we bury them in the ground, and we leave something to mark their place. That's how we show our love and honor for them. Do you understand?"
+
+Anna nodded, and said.
+
+"Yes, sir, I understand. I'm sorry for your wife. She must have been very nice, like you. Can I give you a hug?"
+
+The man smiled, and said.
+
+"Thank you, that's very kind of you. Yes, you can give me a hug."
+
+Anna hugged the man, and Spot licked his hand. The man felt a little better, and thanked Anna and Spot for their compassion. He told them to be careful, and to have fun in the park. He also told them to listen to their parents, and to learn from their mistakes.
+
+Anna and Spot said goodbye to the man, and went back to their ball. They learned a valuable lesson that day, and never dug in the dirt again. They also learned to be respectful of other people's feelings, and to be grateful for their own lives.
+Lila and Ben were twins who liked to play on the shore. They liked to make sand castles, look for shells, and splash in the water. One day, they saw a big boat on the water. It had a long flag and many people on it.
+
+"Look, Lila, a boat!" Ben said. "Let's go see it!"
+
+"OK, Ben, but we have to be careful. The water is deep and the boat is far," Lila said.
+
+They ran along the shore, following the boat. They did not know that they were going away from their mom and dad, who were sitting on a blanket with a picnic basket.
+
+The boat stopped near a dock, and some people got off. Lila and Ben wanted to talk to them, but they did not know their words. They only knew their own words.
+
+"Hello, boat people!" Ben said, waving his hand.
+
+"Bonjour, les enfants!" one of the people said, smiling.
+
+"What did he say, Lila?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know, Ben. Maybe he said hello, too," Lila said.
+
+They tried to say more words, but they did not understand each other. They only smiled and nodded.
+
+Then, they heard a loud voice.
+
+"Lila! Ben! Where are you?" It was their mom, looking for them. She was worried and angry.
+
+Lila and Ben turned around and saw their mom running towards them. They felt scared and sorry.
+
+"Mom, we're here!" they shouted.
+
+Their mom hugged them and scolded them.
+
+"What were you doing, Lila and Ben? You ran away from us! You could have got lost or hurt! You have to stay close to us when we go to the shore!" she said.
+
+"We're sorry, mom. We saw a boat and wanted to see it. We did not know we went so far," Lila said.
+
+"We met some boat people, but we did not know their words. They were nice, though," Ben said.
+
+Their mom sighed and calmed down.
+
+"I'm glad you're safe, Lila and Ben. But you have to be more careful and listen to us. The shore is a big place, and there are many things you don't know. You have to learn from us and from the boat people, too. They have different words and ways, but they are also people like us. Maybe one day, you can know their words and be friends with them," she said.
+
+Lila and Ben nodded and said they were sorry again. They held their mom's hand and walked back to their dad and the picnic basket. They learned a lesson that day: to stay close to their parents, to be curious but careful, and to respect and learn from other people.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the forest. They liked to pretend they were brave hunters. They had sticks for arrows and a bow made of string and a branch.
+
+"Look, a deer!" Tom whispered, pointing to a brown animal in the bushes. "Let's gather some arrows and shoot it!"
+
+Lily nodded and picked up some sticks from the ground. She gave one to Tom and kept one for herself. They crept closer to the deer, holding their bow and arrows.
+
+"Ready, aim, fire!" Tom said, and let go of his string. His arrow flew through the air and landed near the deer. The deer looked up and saw them. It ran away, scared.
+
+"Wow, you almost got it!" Lily said, clapping her hands. "You are so brave, Tom!"
+
+Tom smiled and hugged Lily. "You are brave too, Lily! We are the best hunters ever!"
+
+They ran after the deer, laughing and shouting. They had fun in the forest, playing with their arrows and bow. They were happy and brave.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to sing and dance to music all day long. One day, she saw a very ugly monster in her room. She said, "Hey, you are very ugly! Why are you here?" The monster replied, "I am here to punish you for singing too loud and disturbing my sleep."
+
+Lily was scared and didn't want to be punished. She said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Monster. I didn't know I was being too loud. Can we listen to music together instead?" The monster thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but only if you promise to be quiet when I sleep."
+
+Lily and the monster listened to music together and danced around the room. They had so much fun that the monster forgot about punishing Lily. From that day on, they became friends and danced to music together every day.

+They look at each other. They say, "We are sorry. We were not nice. We did not value the pen. We did not value our friendship."
+
+They hug and make up. They say, "We are friends. We will share and care. We will find another pen. We will draw together."
+Ben and Mia like to play with their kayak. It is a big toy boat that they can sit in and paddle on the water. They have a small pond near their house where they can kayak.
+
+One day, they decide to take their kayak to the pond. They ask their mom to help them carry it. Mom says yes, but they have to be careful and wear their life jackets.
+
+They walk to the pond with mom and the kayak. But when they get there, they see a problem. The pond is full of ducks and geese. There is not much space for the kayak.
+
+"Mom, how can we kayak with all these birds?" Ben asks.
+
+"Maybe we can ask them to move," Mia says. She is a clever girl. She likes to talk to animals.
+
+She goes to the edge of the pond and says in a loud voice, "Hello, ducks and geese. We are Ben and Mia. We want to kayak on the pond. Can you please make some room for us?"
+
+The ducks and geese look at Mia. They quack and honk. They do not understand what she is saying. But they see the kayak and they are curious. They swim closer to Mia and the kayak.
+
+"Look, they are coming to us," Ben says. He is happy. He thinks the birds want to be friends.
+
+Mom smiles. She says, "Maybe they do. But they also want to see the kayak. It is something new for them. They might try to fit in it."
+
+Ben and Mia laugh. They imagine the ducks and geese trying to fit in the kayak. It is a funny picture. The kayak is too small for them.
+
+They decide to share the pond with the birds. They take turns to kayak and to feed the birds with some bread. They have a lot of fun. They are glad they are clever and kind.
+Tim and his dad are going on a trip. They need to pack their bags. Tim has a big red bag. He puts his toys, his books and his teddy bear in it. His dad has a small blue bag. He puts his clothes, his phone and his hat in it.
+
+"Are you ready, Tim?" his dad asks.
+
+"Yes, dad. I am ready. Let's go!" Tim says.
+
+They go to the car. Tim puts his bag in the back seat. His dad puts his bag in the trunk. They drive to the airport. Tim sees many planes. He is excited.
+
+They check in their bags. They go to the gate. They wait for their plane. Tim sees a man. The man is bald. He has no hair on his head. Tim is curious.
+
+"Dad, why is that man bald?" he asks.
+
+"Some people are bald, Tim. It means they have no hair. It is normal. It does not hurt." his dad explains.
+
+"Oh, I see. Can I be bald too?" Tim asks.
+
+"No, Tim. You have nice hair. You should keep it." his dad says.
+
+"OK, dad. I like my hair. But I like bald people too. They are cool." Tim says.
+
+He smiles at the bald man. The bald man smiles back. He gives Tim a tip. He says, "Have a nice trip, little guy."
+
+"Thank you, bald man. You are very kind." Tim says.
+
+He puts the tip in his pocket. He holds his dad's hand. They board the plane. They are ready for their trip.
+Sara and Tom were twins who liked to play soldiers. They had hats and coats and boots and toy guns. They also had a big belt with a shiny buckle that their dad gave them. He was a real soldier who worked far away.
+
+One day, they decided to march around the yard and pretend they were on a mission. They put on their gear and held their guns. "Ready, Tom?" Sara asked. "Ready, Sara!" Tom said. They saluted each other and started to march.
+
+They marched past the flowers and the trees and the swing. They marched past the dog and the cat and the bird. They marched past the fence and the gate and the road. They marched and marched until they came to a big hill.
+
+"Look, Sara, a hill!" Tom said. "Let's climb it and see what's on the other side!" Sara said. They climbed the hill, but it was steep and slippery. They had to hold on to their guns and their belt. The buckle was heavy and made a lot of noise.
+
+When they reached the top, they saw a pond. It was blue and shiny and had ducks and frogs. "Wow, a pond!" Sara said. "Let's go and see it!" Tom said. They ran down the hill, but they were too fast. They slipped and slid and tumbled. They dropped their guns and their belt. The buckle flew off and landed in the pond. It made a big splash and sank to the bottom.
+
+"Oh no, our buckle!" Sara cried. "Our dad's buckle!" Tom cried. They ran to the pond and looked for it. But the pond was deep and dark and muddy. They could not see the buckle. They could only see their sad faces.
+
+They were very sorry and very sad. They did not know what to do. They did not know how to tell their dad. They sat by the pond and hugged each other. They wished they had not marched so far. They wished they had not lost their buckle. They wished their dad was there.
+Ben and Lily liked to play hide and seek in the big house. They ran and laughed and hid in different rooms. One day, they decided to play in the basement, where it was dark and spooky. They took a flashlight with them, so they could see.
+
+Ben said, "I will count to ten, and you hide. Then I will find you with the flashlight." Lily nodded and ran to find a good spot. She saw a closet and thought it would be a good place to hide. She opened the door and went inside. She closed the door behind her and waited for Ben to come.
+
+Ben counted to ten and said, "Ready or not, here I come!" He turned on the flashlight and looked around the basement. He checked under the stairs, behind the boxes, and in the corners. He could not find Lily. He called out, "Lily, where are you? I can't find you!"
+
+Lily heard Ben's voice and said, "I'm in the closet! Come and find me!" She tried to open the door, but it was stuck. She pushed and pulled, but it did not move. She realized that the door was locked. She started to feel scared and sad. She said, "Ben, help me! The door is locked! I can't get out!"
+
+Ben heard Lily's voice and ran to the closet. He tried to open the door, but it was locked. He said, "Lily, don't worry! I will get you out! I will find the key!" He looked around the basement, but he could not find the key. He did not know where it was. He started to feel scared and sad too. He said, "Lily, I'm sorry! I can't find the key! I don't know what to do!"
+
+Lily and Ben cried and shouted, but no one heard them. They were trapped in the basement, with no way out. They wished they had never played hide and seek in the dark. They wished they had stayed upstairs, where it was bright and safe. They wished someone would come and save them. But no one came.
+Lila saw a butterfly in the garden. It was yellow and black and very pretty. She wanted to touch it and play with it. She ran after the butterfly, but it flew away.
+
+"Wait, butterfly, wait!" Lila shouted. "I want to be your friend!"
+
+The butterfly did not listen. It flew higher and higher, over the flowers and the trees. Lila tried to follow it, but she was too small. She could not reach the butterfly.
+
+She saw a big rock near the fence. She had an idea. She climbed on the rock and stood on her toes. She stretched her arms as far as she could. She was very close to the butterfly.
+
+"Come here, butterfly, come here!" Lila said. "I will not hurt you!"
+
+The butterfly did not hear her. It flew over the fence, to the other side. Lila was sad and angry. She jumped from the rock, trying to catch the butterfly.
+
+But she jumped too far. She fell over the fence, into the road. She did not see the car coming. The car did not see her. It hit her with a loud noise.
+
+Lila did not get up. She did not move. She did not breathe. The butterfly flew away, into the sky. It did not know what happened. It did not care.
+Anna liked to draw with her crayons. She had many colors and made pictures of her family, her dog, and her toys. She was happy when she drew.
+
+One day, she went to school with her crayons. She wanted to show her teacher and her friends her pictures. But when she got to her desk, she saw that someone had taken her crayons. She looked around and saw Billy, a boy who was mean to her. He had her crayons and was breaking them and throwing them away.
+
+Anna felt very sad and angry. She ran to Billy and said, "Give me back my crayons! They are mine!" Billy laughed and said, "No, they are mine now. You are a baby who can't draw. Go away!" He pushed her and she fell on the floor.
+
+Anna started to cry. She wanted her crayons and her pictures. She wanted Billy to be nice to her. She wanted her teacher to help her. But her teacher was busy with other kids and did not see what happened. No one came to help Anna.
+
+Anna lay on the floor and cried. She felt alone and hurt. She wished she had her crayons and her pictures. She wished she had her dog, who was furry and soft and loved her. She wished she was at home, where she was happy. She frowned and cried. She did not like school. She did not like Billy. She did not like anything.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to swim in the pool. They wear swim suits and goggles. They splash and kick in the water.
+
+"Look at me, Tim!" Sam says. He dives under the water. He swims like a fish. He sees a shiny coin at the bottom of the pool. He wants to get it.
+
+"Wow, Sam, you are fast!" Tim says. He dives after Sam. He tries to catch him. But Sam is too quick. He grabs the coin and swims up.
+
+"Ha ha, I got it!" Sam says. He shows Tim the coin. It is silver and round. He is happy.
+
+But the guard is not happy. He is lazy. He does not like to watch the kids. He likes to sit and read. He hears Sam and Tim. He sees them dive. He blows his whistle.
+
+"Hey, you two, stop diving!" the guard says. He is angry. "Diving is not safe. You can hurt your head. Give me that coin. It is not yours."
+
+Sam and Tim are scared. They swim to the edge of the pool. They give the coin to the guard. They say sorry.
+
+The guard takes the coin. He puts it in his pocket. He goes back to his chair. He reads his book.
+
+Sam and Tim are sad. They lost the coin. They do not want to dive anymore. They sit on the side of the pool. They wait for their mom.
+Lily was a little girl who loved to study animals. She had many books with pictures of lions, monkeys, birds and fish. She wanted to see them in real life, so she asked her mom to take her to the zoo.
+
+At the zoo, Lily saw many animals in cages. Some of them looked happy, but some of them looked sad. Lily saw a pale bear who was lying on the ground. He did not move or play. He looked very bored and lonely. Lily felt sorry for him and wondered why he was in a cage.
+
+She asked her mom, "Why is the bear in a cage? He does not look happy. He needs a big forest and a family to play with."
+
+Her mom said, "The bear was taken from his home by bad people who wanted to sell him. They did not care about his feelings or needs. They only wanted money. The zoo rescued him and gave him a cage, but they could not give him a forest or a family. He is safe, but he is not free."
+
+Lily thought about what her mom said. She realized that animals are not toys or things. They are living beings who have feelings and needs. She decided that she would not buy or support anything that hurts or traps animals. She said, "Mom, I want to study animals, but I do not want to see them in cages. I want to see them in their homes, where they belong. Can we do that?"
+
+Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said, "Yes, we can. There are many ways to study animals without harming them. We can watch documentaries, visit sanctuaries, join conservation groups, or adopt a pet. You are a very kind and smart girl, Lily. I am proud of you."
+
+Lily smiled and hugged her mom back. She said, "Thank you, mom. I love you and I love animals. I want to help them and learn from them."
+
+The moral of the story is: Animals deserve respect and freedom, and we can study them without hurting them.
+Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play with blocks. On Wednesday, they go to the park with their moms. They find a big pile of blocks near the slide.
+
+"Let's build a castle!" Tom says.
+
+"OK!" Anna says.
+
+They start to stack the blocks on top of each other. They make walls and towers and a gate. They are very clever.
+
+But then, a big dog comes. The dog is black and furry. He likes to run and jump. He sees the blocks and thinks they are toys. He runs to the castle and barks.
+
+"Go away, dog!" Tom and Anna shout.
+
+But the dog does not listen. He jumps on the castle and knocks it down. The blocks drop to the ground. Tom and Anna are sad. They worked hard on their castle.
+
+"Bad dog!" their moms say. They take the dog by the collar and lead him away.
+
+Tom and Anna look at the mess. They feel like crying.
+
+But then, they see something. One block is still standing. It has a picture of a crown on it.
+
+"Look!" Tom says. "The king is still here!"
+
+He picks up the block and puts it on his head.
+
+"I am the king of the blocks!" he says.
+
+Anna smiles. She finds another block with a picture of a flower on it.
+
+"And I am the queen of the flowers!" she says.
+
+She puts the block on her head.
+
+They laugh and hug. They are still friends.
+
+They decide to build another castle. But this time, they do it far away from the dog.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the sandbox. They had a bucket, a shovel and some molds. They made a big castle with towers and walls. They were very happy.
+
+"Look at our castle!" Lily said. "It is enormous!"
+
+"Yes, it is!" Ben agreed. "But it needs something more. It needs salt!"
+
+"Salt?" Lily asked. "Why salt?"
+
+"Salt makes things shiny and sparkly," Ben said. "Like snow or stars. I want salt for our castle."
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She remembered that Mom had salt in the kitchen. She said, "OK, let's go get some salt. But we have to be quick and quiet. Mom is busy."
+
+They ran to the house and sneaked into the kitchen. They saw a big jar of salt on the counter. Ben reached for it, but it was too high. He climbed on a chair and grabbed the jar. He was about to open it when Mom came in.
+
+"Ben, Lily, what are you doing?" Mom asked. She saw the jar of salt in Ben's hand. She looked surprised and worried.
+
+"Mom, we want salt for our castle," Ben said. "It will make it shiny and sparkly."
+
+Mom smiled. She understood. She said, "I see. But you know, salt is not for playing. It is for cooking and eating. If you put salt on your castle, it will make it dry and crumbly. And it will hurt the plants and the animals. Salt is not good for them."
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They did not know that. They felt sorry. They said, "Oh, we did not know that. We are sorry, Mom."
+
+Mom hugged them. She said, "It's OK. I know you were just having fun. But next time, ask me before you take something from the kitchen. And I have an idea. How about we make some cookies instead? We can use sugar and sprinkles. They will make the cookies shiny and sparkly. And they will taste yummy. Do you want that?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded. They liked cookies. They said, "Yes, we want that!"
+
+Mom put the jar of salt back on the counter. She took out some flour, butter, eggs, sugar and sprinkles. She helped Lily and Ben make some dough and cut out some shapes. They put them on a baking sheet and into the oven. They waited for a few minutes. Then they smelled something delicious.
+
+"Look, our cookies are ready!" Mom said. She took them out of the oven and let them cool. She gave Lily and Ben some milk and some cookies. They ate them happily. They said, "Thank you, Mom. These cookies are enormous and shiny and sparkly. And they are yummy!"
+
+Mom smiled. She said, "You're welcome, my sweeties. I love you."
+
+Lily and Ben said, "We love you too, Mom." They gave her a big hug and a kiss. They were very happy.
+Bee and Ant were friends. They liked to play in the sun and find food. One day, they saw a big hive on a tree. It was full of honey.
+
+"Let's go and get some honey," said Bee. "It is sweet and good."
+
+"No, no," said Ant. "That is not our hive. It belongs to other bees. They will be angry if we take their honey. They will sting us."
+
+Bee did not listen to Ant. He wanted honey very much. He flew to the hive and stretched his legs to reach it. He did not see the other bees coming out of the hive. They saw Bee and were troubled. They did not like strangers near their hive.
+
+"Buzz, buzz, go away!" they said. "This is our honey. You cannot have it."
+
+They flew to Bee and stung him. Bee felt a lot of pain. He cried and flew away. He was sorry he did not listen to Ant.
+
+Ant saw Bee and felt sorry for him. He ran to him and helped him. He gave him some water and some leaves to make him feel better.
+
+"Bee, are you okay?" he asked.
+
+Bee nodded. He was still in pain, but he was glad Ant was his friend.
+
+"Ant, I am sorry," he said. "You were right. I should not have gone to the hive. It was not nice of me. I will not do it again."
+
+Ant smiled. He was happy Bee learned his lesson.
+
+"It is okay, Bee," he said. "We all make mistakes. The important thing is to learn from them. And to be kind to others. Come on, let's go and play. But stay away from the hive."
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the farm. They see a big pumpkin. It is orange and round. They want to take it home.
+
+But the farmer is not happy. He says, "That is my pumpkin. I worked hard to grow it. It is very rich and tasty. You cannot have it."
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They say, "Please, can we have the pumpkin? We like it very much. We will share it with you."
+
+The farmer thinks for a moment. He says, "OK, you can have the pumpkin. But you have to help me first. You have to stand on this stool and pick some apples from the tree. Then you have to carry them to the barn. Can you do that?"
+
+Lily and Ben nod. They say, "Yes, we can do that. Thank you, farmer." They stand on the stool and pick some apples. They are red and shiny. They carry them to the barn. They are heavy and sweet.
+
+The farmer smiles. He says, "You are good helpers. Here is your pumpkin. You can take it home. But be careful. It is very big and heavy. You have to hold it with both hands."
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They say, "Thank you, farmer. You are very kind. We will enjoy the pumpkin. We will make a pie and a soup and a lantern. We will invite you to eat with us."
+
+They hold the pumpkin with both hands. They walk slowly to their home. They are proud and excited. They have a big pumpkin. They have a good friend. They have a fun day.
+Lila and Sam were very happy. They were going to perform at the festival. The festival was a large party with many people, music, and food. Lila and Sam practiced a lot for their performance. They learned how to sing a song and dance with colorful scarves.
+
+On the day of the festival, Lila and Sam wore their best clothes and put on their scarves. They walked to the stage with their teacher. They saw many people watching them. They felt a little scared, but also excited. They smiled at each other and held hands.
+
+The music started and Lila and Sam began to sing and dance. They waved their scarves in the air and moved their feet. They sang loud and clear. They looked at the people and saw them clapping and cheering. They felt happy and proud. They finished their song and bowed. The people gave them a big applause. Lila and Sam hugged each other and thanked their teacher. They had a lot of fun performing at the festival.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play with True, the big dog. True is very soft and furry. He likes to run and jump and lick their faces.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben find a big box of paint. They think it is fun to squeeze the paint and make colors on the paper. They squeeze red and blue and yellow and green. They make messy pictures with their hands and feet.
+
+True sees the paint and wants to play too. He runs to the box and squeezes the paint with his paws. He makes messy prints on the paper and on the floor and on the wall. He wags his tail and barks.
+
+Anna and Ben laugh and hug True. They think he is very funny and cute. They squeeze him and say, "We love you, True!"
+
+But then they hear Mommy coming. She sees the paint and the mess and the dog. She is not happy. She says, "Anna and Ben, what have you done? This is a big mess! You need to clean it up right now!"
+
+Anna and Ben are sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mommy. We just wanted to have fun with True. He is our friend."
+
+Mommy sighs and says, "I know, but you can't squeeze the paint like that. It is not for playing. It is for painting. And you can't let True make a mess like that. He is a good dog, but he needs to be clean and tidy."
+
+She helps them clean the paint and the mess and the dog. She says, "Next time, you can play with True outside. And you can use crayons or stickers or stamps to make pictures. They are not messy and they are fun too."
+
+Anna and Ben nod and say, "Okay, Mommy. We will do that. Thank you for helping us."
+
+They hug Mommy and True and say, "We love you, Mommy. We love you, True!"
+Tom and Sue were friends. They liked to play in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They liked the sunshine. It made them happy.
+
+One day, they saw a new toy in the park. It was a big red car. It had four wheels and a horn. It looked fun. Tom and Sue wanted to try it.
+
+"Who does it belong to?" Sue asked.
+
+"I don't know," Tom said. "Maybe no one. Maybe we can play with it."
+
+They ran to the car. They climbed inside. They took turns to drive and honk. They laughed and smiled. They forgot about the swing and the slide and the run.
+
+But the car did not belong to them. It belonged to Ben. Ben was a big boy. He was mean. He saw Tom and Sue in his car. He was angry. He ran to them. He shouted at them.
+
+"Hey, you! Get out of my car! It's mine! You can't play with it!"
+
+Tom and Sue were scared. They jumped out of the car. They tried to run away. But Ben was faster. He caught them. He pushed them. He hit them. He made them cry.
+
+Tom and Sue were hurt. They were sad. They were ashamed. They had done something wrong. They had taken something that was not theirs. They had made Ben mad. They had lost their friend.
+
+They wished they had never seen the car. They wished they had stayed in the sunshine. They wished they had played with the swing and the slide and the run. They wished they had been good.
+Jill and Tom 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.
+
+One day, they saw something very shiny in the sand. It was a diamond! It was big and bright and had many colors. Jill and Tom were very happy. They hoped it was a real diamond and not a fake one.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Jill said. "It's so pretty!"
+
+"Can I see?" Tom asked. He reached out his hand to take the diamond.
+
+But Jill did not want to share. She held the diamond tight in her hand. She said, "No, it's mine! I found it first!"
+
+Tom was sad and angry. He said, "That's not fair! We are friends. We should share!"
+
+He tried to grab the diamond from Jill. They started to pull and tug and fight. The diamond slipped from their hands and rolled away. It went into a wide hole in the sand. They could not see it anymore.
+
+Jill and Tom stopped fighting. They looked at the hole. They felt sorry and silly. They said, "Oh no! We lost the diamond!"
+
+They tried to dig in the hole, but it was too deep and dark. They could not find the diamond. They wished they had been nicer to each other. They said, "We are sorry. We were mean. Can we still be friends?"
+
+They hugged and said, "Yes, we can still be friends. The diamond was not as important as our friendship."
+
+They decided to play something else. They hoped they would find another shiny thing someday. But they also hoped they would not fight over it again. They learned to share and care.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They share a room and a bed. One night, Tom is very sleepy. He wants to sleep, but Sam is not sleepy. Sam wants to play with his toys.
+
+"Tom, look at my car. It is fast and red. Vroom, vroom!" Sam says.
+
+"Shh, Sam. I am sleepy. I want to sleep. Please be quiet," Tom says.
+
+But Sam does not listen. He keeps playing with his car. He makes loud noises. He drives his car on the bed. He bumps into Tom.
+
+"Ow, Sam. Stop it. You hurt me. Go away," Tom says.
+
+Sam is angry. He does not like Tom. He wants to make Tom mad. He has an idea. He sees a light on the nightstand. It is Tom's light. Tom likes his light. He uses it to read books before he sleeps.
+
+Sam decides to steal Tom's light. He grabs the light and runs away. He laughs.
+
+"Ha, ha, Tom. I have your light. You cannot read. You cannot sleep. You are in the dark. I am in the light. I am smart. You are dumb," Sam says.
+
+Tom is sad. He does not have his light. He cannot read. He cannot sleep. He is in the dark. He cries.
+
+"Mom, mom. Sam stole my light. He is mean. He is bad. He makes fun of me. He hurts me. Please help me," Tom says.
+
+Mom hears Tom. She comes to the room. She sees Sam with the light. She sees Tom in the dark. She is not happy.
+
+"Sam, what are you doing? Why did you steal Tom's light? That is not nice. That is not fair. You have to share. You have to be kind. You have to say sorry," Mom says.
+
+Sam is scared. He knows he did wrong. He does not want to be in trouble. He gives the light back to Tom. He says sorry.
+
+"Tom, I am sorry. I should not have stolen your light. I should not have been mean. I should not have hurt you. Can you forgive me?" Sam says.
+
+Tom is glad. He has his light back. He is not in the dark. He is not sad. He forgives Sam.
+
+"Sam, I forgive you. I know you are sorry. I love you. You are my brother. Can we be friends?" Tom says.
+
+Sam nods. He loves Tom. He is his brother. He wants to be friends.
+
+"Tom, I love you. You are my brother. We are friends. Can we play together?" Sam says.
+
+Tom smiles. He is not sleepy anymore. He wants to play with Sam.
+
+"Sam, I love you. You are my brother. We are friends. Yes, we can play together. But first, let's turn off the light. Mom will be happy. And maybe we can sleep later," Tom says.
+
+They turn off the light. They hug. They play. They are happy. Mom is happy. They are a family.
+Tim and Sam were brothers who liked to play in the field near their house. They ran, jumped, and rolled on the grass. They also liked to chase the rabbits and birds that lived there.
+
+One day, they saw a big horse in the field. It was brown and had a long mane and tail. It looked mighty and strong. Tim and Sam wanted to touch it and ride it.
+
+"Let's go and say hello to the horse," Tim said.
+
+"OK, but be careful. It might kick or bite us," Sam said.
+
+They walked slowly towards the horse, holding hands. The horse saw them and neighed. It seemed friendly and curious. It lowered its head and sniffed them.
+
+"Hi, horse. You are very pretty. Can we pet you?" Tim asked.
+
+The horse nodded and let them stroke its nose and ears. It felt soft and warm. Tim and Sam smiled and giggled.
+
+"Can we ride you, horse? You are very fast and fun," Sam asked.
+
+The horse shook its head and whinnied. It did not want them to ride it. It liked to run free and wild in the field. It did not like to have people on its back.
+
+"Please, horse. Just for a little while. We will be gentle and nice," Tim begged.
+
+The horse sighed and nodded. It agreed to let them ride it for a short time. It was kind and patient. It lifted them up on its back and walked slowly around the field.
+
+Tim and Sam felt happy and excited. They felt like they were flying. They thanked the horse and hugged it.
+
+"Thank you, horse. You are very kind and brave. We love you," they said.
+
+The horse smiled and nuzzled them. It loved them too. It taught them a lesson. It taught them to respect and appreciate the animals and nature. It taught them to be grateful and polite. It taught them to be good friends.
+Sam liked to play with his guitar. He made loud sounds with it. He sang songs he knew. He did not care if anyone else liked his music. He just wanted to have fun.
+
+Mom and Dad did not like Sam's guitar. They said it was too noisy. They said it gave them a headache. They said Sam had to play quietly or not at all. They said he had to share his guitar with his sister Lily.
+
+Sam did not want to share his guitar. He said it was his and his alone. He said Lily could not play with it. He said he would not play quietly. He said he would play louder and louder. He refused to listen to Mom and Dad.
+
+One day, Mom and Dad had a surprise for Sam. They said they had a new toy for him. They said it was better than his guitar. They said he would love it. They said they would give it to him if he gave his guitar to Lily.
+
+Sam was curious. He wanted to see the new toy. He wondered what it was. He hoped it was something cool and fun. He decided to give his guitar to Lily. He said he did not need it anymore. He said he was ready for the new toy.
+
+Mom and Dad smiled. They gave Sam the new toy. It was a drum set. It had a big drum, a small drum, a cymbal, and two sticks. It was shiny and colorful. It looked like a lot of fun.
+
+Sam was happy. He thanked Mom and Dad. He ran to the drum set. He picked up the sticks. He started to bang on the drums. He made louder sounds than his guitar. He sang louder songs than before. He did not care if anyone else liked his music. He just wanted to have fun.
+
+Mom and Dad regretted their surprise. They said they had made a mistake. They said the drum set was too noisy. They said it gave them a bigger headache. They said Sam had to play quietly or not at all. They said he had to share his drum set with Lily.
+
+Sam did not want to share his drum set. He said it was his and his alone. He said Lily could not play with it. He said he would not play quietly. He said he would play louder and louder. He refused to listen to Mom and Dad.
+
+The end.
+Lily liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Daisy. Daisy had a pretty dress with flowers and a hat with a ribbon. Lily liked to match her clothes with Daisy's.
+
+One day, Lily saw a new dress in her mom's closet. It was red and shiny, with buttons and lace. Lily thought it was very pretty. She wanted to try it on and match it with Daisy's dress. She took the dress and ran to her room.
+
+But the dress was too big for Lily. It dragged on the floor and got dirty. Lily tried to button it, but she could not reach. She pulled and tugged, but the dress did not fit. She heard a rip. She looked down and saw a big hole in the dress. She saw a thread hanging out. She thought it was a stitch.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily said. "Mom will be mad. I have to fix it."
+
+She took her scissors and cut the thread. She tried to sew the hole with a needle and thread. But she did not know how to sew. She made more holes and more stitches. The dress looked worse than before.
+
+Lily heard her mom coming. She hid the dress under her bed. She put on her own dress and hugged Daisy. She hoped her mom would not find out.
+
+But her mom saw the scissors and the needle and thread on the floor. She looked under the bed and saw the red dress. She was very angry.
+
+"Lily, what did you do?" she asked. "This is my new dress. You ruined it. You were very naughty."
+
+Lily felt sorry. She started to cry.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom," she said. "I wanted to match with Daisy. I tried to fix it, but I made it worse."
+
+Her mom sighed. She hugged Lily and Daisy.
+
+"I know you like to match with Daisy, but you can't take my things without asking. And you can't cut and sew them. That's dangerous. You could hurt yourself. You have to be careful and respectful."
+
+Lily nodded. She said sorry again. She gave her mom a kiss.
+
+Her mom smiled. She said she loved Lily and Daisy. She said she would teach Lily how to sew when she was older. She said they would find another dress to match with Daisy.
+
+Lily was happy. She thanked her mom. She learned her lesson. She never took her mom's things again. She played with Daisy and her other dolls. She matched them with her own clothes. She was a good girl.
+Anna liked to play in the garden. She liked to smell the flowers and pick them for her mom. She saw a big daisy with many white petals and a yellow middle. She ran to it and pulled it out of the ground.
+
+But the daisy was not happy. It felt a sharp pain when Anna tore it from its home. It wanted to stay with its friends, the other flowers and the bees. It felt sad and scared in Anna's hand.
+
+Anna did not know the daisy was sad. She thought it was pretty and smelled good. She wanted to show it to her mom. She ran to the house with the daisy in her hand. But she ran too fast and tripped on a stone. She fell down and let go of the daisy.
+
+The daisy flew in the air and landed on the ground. It was hurt and broken. Some of its petals were torn off and its stem was bent. It could not stand up or drink water. It felt very weak and cold. It knew it was going to die.
+
+Anna got up and saw the daisy on the ground. She felt sorry for the daisy. She picked it up and tried to fix it. But it was too late. The daisy was dead. Anna cried and said sorry to the daisy. She wished she had not torn it from the garden. She buried it under a tree and said a prayer. She learned to be gentle with the flowers and not hurt them. She hoped the daisy would forgive her and be happy in heaven.
+Lily liked to play with her figures. She had many figures of animals, people and cars. She made them talk and move on the floor. She pretended they had adventures and fun.
+
+One day, she saw a new figure in the toy store. It was a figure of a fairy with wings and a wand. Lily wanted the fairy figure very much. She asked her mom if she could have it.
+
+"Maybe for your birthday, Lily," her mom said. "Your birthday is soon. You have to wait a little bit."
+
+Lily was sad. She wanted the fairy figure now. She looked at it with big eyes. She wished she could clap her hands and make it hers.
+
+A kind lady saw Lily and smiled. She walked to the toy store and bought the fairy figure. She came back to Lily and gave it to her.
+
+"Here you go, sweetie," the lady said. "This is a gift for you. You have such a lovely smile. I hope you enjoy your fairy figure."
+
+Lily was very happy. She hugged the lady and thanked her. She clapped her hands and smiled. She held the fairy figure close to her heart.
+
+"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Lily said. "You are very kind. You made my wish come true."
+
+The lady winked and waved. She walked away. Lily waved back. She ran to her mom and showed her the fairy figure.
+
+"Look, mom, look!" Lily said. "A kind lady gave me the fairy figure. She said I have a lovely smile. Isn't she nice?"
+
+Mom was surprised and touched. She hugged Lily and the fairy figure.
+
+"Yes, she is very nice," mom said. "And you are very lucky. You have a new friend and a new toy. What a wonderful day!"
+Ben and Lily are twins. They live in a big house with their mom and dad. They like to play with their toys, read books, and watch cartoons. They also like to learn new things about the world.
+
+One morning, Ben and Lily wake up early. They hear their mom and dad talking in the kitchen. They sneak out of their room and go to see what they are saying.
+
+"Mom, dad, what are you talking about?" Ben asks.
+
+"We are talking about a nation, Ben. A nation is a big place where many people live together. Like our city, but bigger," mom explains.
+
+"Why are you talking about a nation?" Lily wonders.
+
+"Because today is a special day, Lily. Today is the day we celebrate our nation. We say thank you to the people who are helpful and brave and make our nation a good place to live," dad says.
+
+"Wow, that sounds fun! Can we celebrate too?" Ben and Lily ask.
+
+"Of course, you can. We have a flag, some balloons, and some cake. We can hang the flag outside, blow the balloons, and eat the cake. We can also sing a song and wear some hats," mom says.
+
+"Yay, let's do that!" Ben and Lily cheer.
+
+They run to their room and put on their hats. They are red, white, and blue, like the flag. They help mom and dad decorate the house and the yard. They sing the song and eat the cake. They are happy and proud to be part of their nation. They hug mom and dad and say thank you for teaching them about their nation. Mom and dad hug them back and say they love them very much.
+Sara and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to look at the flowers and smell them. Sara saw a big red flower that she had never seen before. It was blooming in the corner.
+
+"Look, Tom, a new flower!" Sara said. "It is so pretty and big!"
+
+Tom came over and looked at the flower. He did not like it. He remembered what his mom had told him.
+
+"No, Sara, do not touch it!" Tom said. "That is a poison flower. It can make you sick or hurt you. Mom said we should stay away from it."
+
+Sara was scared. She did not want to get sick or hurt. She backed away from the flower.
+
+"Thank you, Tom, for telling me," Sara said. "You are very helpful and smart. I am sorry I did not know."
+
+Tom smiled. He was glad he could help Sara. He hugged her and said, "It is okay, Sara. You did not know. But now you do. We can play with the other flowers. They are safe and nice."
+
+Sara and Tom ran to the other flowers. They picked some and made a bouquet. They gave it to their mom, who was watching them from the window. She was happy and proud of them. She said, "You are very good and kind, Sara and Tom. I love you and the flowers."
+Lily and Sam were playing with their toy cars on the floor. They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving fast. Lily had a red car and Sam had a blue car.
+
+"Look, my car can go up the hill!" Lily said, pointing to a pile of books. "Vroom, vroom!"
+
+"My car can go under the bridge!" Sam said, pointing to a chair. "Beep, beep!"
+
+They zoomed their cars around the room, having fun. Then they saw a big bottle of water on the table. It had a picture of a university on it. Lily and Sam did not know what a university was, but they liked the picture.
+
+"Let's pour some water on our cars!" Lily said. "They can be like boats!"
+
+"Okay!" Sam said. "That sounds fun!"
+
+They climbed on the table and grabbed the bottle. They opened the cap and started to pour water on their cars. The water splashed and made a mess. The cars got wet and slippery.
+
+"Wow, this is cool!" Lily said. "My car can float!"
+
+"Mine too!" Sam said. "Splash, splash!"
+
+But then they heard a loud voice. It was Mom. She was not happy.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom asked. "You are making a big mess! This is not water, this is juice! It was for your lunch!"
+
+Lily and Sam looked at the bottle. It was not water, it was juice. It was orange and sticky. They had poured juice on their cars and on the floor. They felt bad.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Lily said.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Sam said.
+
+Mom sighed. She took the bottle and the cars. She gave them a towel.
+
+"Clean up this mess," Mom said. "And no more pouring juice on your toys. Juice is for drinking, not for playing."
+
+Lily and Sam nodded. They wiped the juice off the floor and their cars. They learned their lesson. They decided to play with something else. Something that was not rough or wet. Something like blocks. Blocks were fun. And they did not make a mess.
+Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the big park. They had a favorite spot under a big oak tree, where they had a secret box with toys and snacks. One day, they went to the park with their mom, but they saw some other kids playing near their oak tree.
+
+"Let's go somewhere else," Lily said. "Those kids might take our stuff."
+
+"No, let's go get our box," Ben said. "We can share with them."
+
+Lily and Ben ran to the oak tree, but when they got there, they saw that their box was gone. They looked around and saw one of the other kids holding it. He was opening it and taking out their toys and snacks.
+
+"Hey, that's ours!" Ben shouted. "Give it back!"
+
+The kid looked at them and laughed. He was a spoiled kid who always took what he wanted. He said, "No, it's mine now. I found it. You can't have it."
+
+Lily and Ben felt angry and sad. They tried to get their box back, but the kid was bigger and stronger. He pushed them away and ran to his friends. They all laughed and played with Lily and Ben's stuff.
+
+Lily and Ben ran to their mom and told her what happened. Their mom was very mad. She went to the kid and his friends and said, "That box belongs to my children. You have to give it back."
+
+The kid and his friends pretended they didn't hear her. They kept playing with the box. Their mom said, "If you don't give it back, I will tell your parents. They will be very disappointed in you."
+
+The kid and his friends looked scared. They knew their parents would be angry if they found out they stole something. They gave the box back to Lily and Ben and said, "Sorry, we didn't know it was yours. We thought you forgot it."
+
+Lily and Ben took their box and hugged their mom. They said, "Thank you, mom. You are the best."
+
+Their mom said, "You're welcome, my loves. I'm proud of you for being kind and brave. Let's go home and have some cookies."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled and followed their mom. They learned a lesson that day. They learned to never forget their box, and to never be like the spoiled kid.
+Sam and Mia are playing with blocks. They want to make a big tower, but the blocks keep falling down. Sam has an idea.
+
+"Let's use tape to stick the blocks together," he says. "Then they will not fall."
+
+Mia nods. She likes Sam's idea. She finds a roll of tape in the drawer. It is black tape. She gives it to Sam.
+
+Sam takes the tape and wraps it around the blocks. He makes the tower taller and taller. He uses a lot of tape.
+
+"Look, Mia, our tower is very big now," he says. "It is bigger than you and me."
+
+Mia claps her hands. She is happy. She wants to see how big the tower is. She stands next to it and looks up.
+
+"Wow, it is very big," she says. "But can we make it bigger?"
+
+Sam thinks. He wants to make the tower bigger too. He looks around for more blocks. He sees some on the shelf.
+
+"Let's get those blocks," he says. "Then we can increase our tower more."
+
+Mia agrees. She helps Sam get the blocks. They add them to the tower. They use more tape. The tower grows and grows.
+
+"Look, Mia, our tower is the biggest in the world," he says. "It is bigger than the door and the window."
+
+Mia smiles. She is proud. She wants to show their tower to Mom and Dad. She runs to the door and calls them.
+
+"Mom, Dad, come and see our tower," she says. "It is very big and black and we made it with tape."
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play with cars and trucks. One day, they find a big bottle of oil in the garage. They think it is fun to pour oil on the floor and make it slippery.
+
+"Look, Tim, I can slide on the oil!" Sam says. He runs and slides on the oily floor. He laughs and falls down.
+
+"Me too, me too!" Tim says. He tries to slide on the oil, but he slips and hits his head on the wall. He cries and holds his head.
+
+"Are you okay, Tim?" Sam asks. He runs to his brother and hugs him.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Tim says. "My head hurts. It is harsh."
+
+Sam feels sorry for Tim. He helps him get up and takes him to the kitchen. He finds a wet cloth and puts it on Tim's head.
+
+"Here, Tim, this will make you feel better," Sam says. He blinks his eyes and smiles.
+
+"Thank you, Sam," Tim says. He blinks his eyes and smiles too.
+
+They hug each other and say sorry. They promise to never play with oil again. They go back to the garage and clean up the mess. They find their cars and trucks and play with them nicely. They are happy brothers.
+Tom and Anna went to the park with their mom. They saw many pigeons on the grass. They wanted to feed them some bread. Mom gave them each a piece of bread and told them to be gentle.
+
+Tom and Anna walked slowly to the pigeons. They held out their bread and said, "Here, pigeons, have some bread. We are your friends." Some of the pigeons came closer and pecked at the bread. Tom and Anna smiled and laughed.
+
+But one pigeon was not jolly. He was greedy and wanted all the bread. He flew at Tom and Anna and tried to snatch their bread. He flapped his wings and made a loud noise. Tom and Anna were scared and ran back to mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, a bad pigeon chased us!" they cried. Mom hugged them and said, "Don't worry, my loves. He was just hungry and rude. You did nothing wrong. You were very kind to the pigeons."
+
+Mom gave them another piece of bread and said, "Let's try again. Maybe we can find a jolly pigeon who will share with us." Tom and Anna nodded and followed mom. They hoped to meet a nice pigeon who would be their friend.
+Lily and Max were friends who liked to play in the forest. They liked to look for berries that were sweet and juicy. One day, they found a big bush with many red berries. They were very happy and ran to pick some.
+
+But then, they saw a big bear coming out of the bush. The bear was angry and growled at them. He wanted the berries for himself. Lily and Max were scared and ran away. They hid behind a tree and whispered to each other.
+
+"What do we do?" Lily asked. "The bear is too big and strong. We can't get the berries."
+
+"Maybe we can trick him," Max said. "We can make a noise on the other side of the bush. Then, when he goes to look, we can run and get some berries."
+
+"That sounds good," Lily said. "But it is difficult. We have to be fast and quiet."
+
+They agreed to try their plan. Max took a stick and threw it to the other side of the bush. It made a loud thud. The bear heard it and turned his head. He walked to the other side to see what it was.
+
+Lily and Max saw their chance. They ran to the bush and grabbed some berries. They put them in their pockets and ran back to the tree. They were very happy and proud.
+
+They had united to trick the bear. They had gotten some berries. They had done something difficult. They smiled at each other and ate the berries. They were sweet and juicy. They shared them with each other and said, "Yum!"
+Mia likes to play with her toys in her room. She has a big box of toys with many things inside. She has dolls, cars, blocks, books, and more. She likes to make stories with her toys and pretend they are her friends.
+
+One day, she finds a new toy in her box. It is a bird. It has a soft body, a long tail, and a yellow beak. It has many feathers of different colors. Mia thinks it is very pretty. She picks it up and hugs it. She says, "Hello, bird. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+The bird does not say anything. It does not move. Mia thinks it is a toy bird. She puts it on her bed and goes to get some other toys. She does not know that the bird is not a toy. It is a real bird. It was hiding in her box because it was scared. It flew into her window when she was not looking.
+
+The bird waits until Mia is busy with her other toys. Then it opens its eyes and looks around. It sees Mia's room. It sees many things that it likes. It sees a shiny necklace, a colorful ball, a soft pillow, and a tasty cookie. It wants to touch them and play with them.
+
+The bird jumps off the bed and flies to the necklace. It picks it up with its beak and swings it around. It makes a tinkling sound. Mia hears the sound and turns around. She sees the bird with her necklace. She is very surprised. She says, "Hey, that's my necklace! Give it back, bird!"
+
+The bird is scared. It drops the necklace and flies to the ball. It pushes it with its feet and rolls it on the floor. It makes a bouncing sound. Mia hears the sound and runs after the bird. She says, "Hey, that's my ball! Stop, bird!"
+
+The bird is more scared. It leaves the ball and flies to the pillow. It snuggles into it and pulls out some feathers. It makes a fluffing sound. Mia hears the sound and reaches for the bird. She says, "Hey, that's my pillow! Come here, bird!"
+
+The bird is very scared. It flies away from the pillow and sees the cookie. It thinks it is a seed. It flies to the cookie and bites it. It makes a crunching sound. Mia hears the sound and grabs the bird. She says, "Hey, that's my cookie! You are a naughty bird!"
+
+The bird is very sorry. It does not want to make Mia angry. It does not want to take her things. It wants to be her friend. It looks at Mia with its big eyes and makes a chirping sound. It gives Mia a feather. It says, "Sorry, Mia. I was hungry and curious. I like you. You are nice. Can I be your toy?"
+
+Mia looks at the bird and the feather. She is not angry anymore. She is happy. She thinks the bird is very cute and funny. She says, "It's okay, bird. I forgive you. You are not a toy. You are a real bird. But you can be my friend. What is your name?"
+
+The bird thinks for a moment. It remembers the sound of the necklace. It likes the sound. It says, "My name is Tinkle. I like to tinkle things. Can I tinkle your necklace?"
+
+Mia laughs. She thinks Tinkle is a good name for the bird. She says, "Yes, you can tinkle my necklace. But only if you are careful and helpful. Can you be careful and helpful, Tinkle?"
+
+Tinkle nods. It says, "Yes, I can be careful and helpful, Mia. I can help you clean up the mess I made. I can help you make stories with your toys. I can help you have fun. Can I stay with you, Mia?"
+
+Mia smiles. She says, "Yes, you can stay with me, Tinkle. You are my new friend. You are a surprise, but a good surprise. I like you, Tinkle."
+
+Tinkle smiles too. It says, "I like you too, Mia. You are my new friend. You are a surprise, but a good surprise. Thank you, Mia."
+
+Mia and Tinkle hug each other. They are happy. They play with the toys and the feather. They make stories and sounds. They have fun. They are friends.
+Lily and Ben were playing with blocks in the living room. They liked to build towers and bridges and houses with the blocks. They had many colors and shapes of blocks to choose from.
+
+"Look, Lily, I made a big tower!" Ben said, showing his creation to his sister. "It is very tall and strong."
+
+Lily smiled and clapped her hands. "That is a good tower, Ben. I made a bridge. It is very long and wide." She pointed to her bridge that connected two couches.
+
+They were having fun with their blocks, until they heard a loud noise from the kitchen. It was Mom, who was baking a cake. She had spilled some flour on the floor and was trying to wipe it with a cloth.
+
+"Oh, no! What a mess!" Mom said. "I need something to help me wipe this flour. Where is the broom?"
+
+Lily and Ben heard Mom and wanted to help her. They looked around and saw the blocks. They had an idea.
+
+"Mom, we have something useful for you!" Lily said, grabbing some blocks. "We can use the blocks to wipe the flour. They are soft and smooth."
+
+Ben nodded and followed Lily with more blocks. They ran to the kitchen and gave the blocks to Mom.
+
+Mom was surprised and touched by their offer. She thanked them and took the blocks. She used them to wipe the flour from the floor. The blocks worked well and soon the floor was clean.
+
+"Wow, you are very clever and kind, Lily and Ben!" Mom said, hugging them. "You found a new way to use the blocks. They are not only for playing, but also for wiping. Thank you for helping me."
+
+Lily and Ben smiled and hugged Mom back. They were happy to help Mom and to use their blocks in a useful way. They went back to the living room and continued to play with their blocks. They wondered what else they could do with them.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they find a big drawer in the attic. The drawer is full of old clothes and hats and jewels. Anna and Ben think they are very pretty.
+
+They put on the clothes and hats and jewels. They pretend they are a king and a queen. They have a lot of fun. They say they want to marry each other. They look for a ring in the drawer. They find a shiny ring with a red stone.
+
+Ben tries to put the ring on Anna's finger. But he is clumsy. He drops the ring. It rolls under the drawer. Anna and Ben try to reach for it. But the drawer is heavy. It falls on them. They are trapped.
+
+They shout for help. They are scared. They hear footsteps. It is Anna's mom. She hears them. She lifts the drawer. She sees them. She is angry.
+
+She takes off the clothes and hats and jewels. She tells them they are naughty. She says they can't play in the attic. She says they can't marry each other. She sends them to their rooms.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They still want to marry each other. They still want the ring. They think of a plan. They wait for night. They sneak out of their rooms. They go back to the attic. They find the ring. They put it on Anna's finger. They kiss. They are happy. They say they are married. They go back to their rooms. They sleep. They dream.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play pretend. Today they are playing circus. They have a stage in the garden. The stage is a big box with a blanket on top.
+
+Lily is a clown. She has a red nose and big shoes. She makes funny faces and noises. Ben is a lion. He has a yellow mane and a tail. He roars and jumps. The other children watch and clap.
+
+But then it starts to rain. The rain is wet and cold. It makes the stage and the blanket wet too. Lily and Ben are sad. They do not like the rain. They want to play circus.
+
+"Let's go inside," Lily says. "We can play circus in the living room."
+
+"But what about the stage?" Ben asks. "We need a stage for the circus."
+
+Lily thinks. She has an idea. "We can dry the stage," she says. "We can use a hairdryer. Then the stage will be normal again."
+
+Ben likes the idea. He nods. "OK, let's dry the stage," he says. "But we have to be quick. The rain is getting stronger."
+
+They run inside with the stage and the blanket. They find a hairdryer in the bathroom. They plug it in and turn it on. They blow the hot air on the stage and the blanket. They see the water go away. They smile.
+
+"Look, the stage is dry," Lily says. "Now we can play circus again."
+
+"Yes, the stage is dry," Ben says. "But we need a new blanket. This one is too wet."
+
+Lily looks around. She sees a big towel. She grabs it. "We can use this towel," she says. "It is soft and warm. It will be a good blanket for the stage."
+
+Ben agrees. He helps Lily put the towel on the stage. They fix it with some clips. They make sure it is nice and smooth.
+
+"There, the stage is ready," Lily says. "Now we can play circus again."
+
+"Yes, the stage is ready," Ben says. "But we need a new audience. The other children are gone."
+
+Lily looks around. She sees some toys. She has another idea. "We can use these toys," she says. "They can be our audience. They will like our circus."
+
+Ben likes the idea. He nods. He helps Lily arrange the toys on the sofa. They make sure they can see the stage.
+
+"There, the audience is ready," Lily says. "Now we can play circus again."
+
+"Yes, the audience is ready," Ben says. "But we need some music. The circus needs music."
+
+Lily thinks. She has one more idea. "We can use this radio," she says. "It can play music. It will be a good music for the circus."
+
+Ben likes the idea. He nods. He turns on the radio. He finds a station that plays happy music. He turns up the volume.
+
+"There, the music is ready," Lily says. "Now we can play circus again."
+
+"Yes, the music is ready," Ben says. "But we need one more thing. We need to have fun. The circus needs fun."
+
+Lily smiles. She agrees. She takes Ben's hand. "We have everything we need," she says. "We have a stage, a blanket, an audience, and music. And we have each other. We are the best circus in the world."
+
+Ben smiles. He agrees. He squeezes Lily's hand. "We are the best circus in the world," he says. "Let's play circus."
+
+They go to the stage. They put on their costumes. They start their show. They make the toys laugh and clap. They have fun. They are happy. They are the best circus in the world.
+Ben and Mia liked to play in the garden. They had many toys, but their favorite was a plant. The plant was very big and green, and had red flowers. They called it the mighty plant.
+
+One day, they decided to discuss the plant. They sat under its shade and talked.
+
+"Where did the plant come from?" Ben asked.
+
+"Mommy said it was a gift from Grandma," Mia said.
+
+"What is a gift?" Ben wondered.
+
+"A gift is something nice that someone gives you," Mia explained.
+
+"Why did Grandma give us the plant?" Ben asked.
+
+"Because she loves us, and she loves plants too," Mia said.
+
+"Does the plant love us?" Ben asked.
+
+Mia thought for a moment. She remembered how the plant would sway in the wind, and how it would make them happy with its flowers.
+
+"I think so," she said. "The plant is our friend."
+
+They smiled and hugged the plant. They did not know that Grandma was watching them from the window. She smiled too, and felt proud of her gift. She knew that the plant was special, and that it had a secret. She hoped that one day, Ben and Mia would discover it. The plant was not just a plant, but a magic plant. And if they were very kind and brave, it would take them on an amazing adventure.
+Anna and Ben are friends who like to play outside. One day, they find a big box and some paper. They decide to create a plane with the box and the paper. They cut and glue and draw on the paper. They make wings and a tail and a nose for the plane.
+
+"Look at our plane!" Anna says. "It is so big and pretty!"
+
+"Yes, it is!" Ben says. "Let's fly it in the wind!"
+
+They take their plane to the hill and hold it up. The wind is strong and blows the plane away. Anna and Ben run after it, but they cannot catch it. The plane flies over the trees and the houses and the fields. Anna and Ben are sad and tired.
+
+"Where is our plane?" Anna asks. "We worked so hard to create it!"
+
+"I don't know," Ben says. "Maybe someone else found it and kept it."
+
+They sit on the grass and feel sleepy. They close their eyes and rest.
+
+A bird sees their plane and likes it. It lands on the plane and pecks at the paper. It tears the paper and makes holes in the wings and the tail and the nose. The plane falls down and lands near Anna and Ben. They wake up and see their plane. It is broken and ugly.
+
+"Oh no!" Anna says. "Our plane is ruined!"
+
+"Who did this?" Ben says. "That is not fair!"
+
+They look up and see the bird. It is flying away with some paper in its beak. It is making a nest with the paper.
+
+"Look!" Anna says. "It is the bird! It destroyed our plane to make a nest!"
+
+"That is mean!" Ben says. "We should get our paper back!"
+
+They stand up and try to throw stones at the bird. But the bird is too high and too fast. They miss the bird and hit a window and a car and a cat. The window breaks and the car honks and the cat hisses. The people and the animals are angry and scared. They shout at Anna and Ben.
+
+"Stop that!" they say. "You are bad children! You are making trouble!"
+
+Anna and Ben feel sorry and ashamed. They realize they made a mistake. They should not have thrown stones at the bird. They should have been kind and shared their paper. They apologize to the people and the animals. They pick up their plane and their stones. They go home and say sorry to their parents.
+
+The moral of the story is: Do not be greedy and selfish. Be generous and respectful.
+Anna loved her aunt Lily. Aunt Lily was very kind and funny. She also had a furry cat named Coco. Anna liked to play with Coco and pet his soft fur.
+
+One day, Anna went to visit aunt Lily with her mom. They knocked on the door and aunt Lily opened it. She smiled and hugged them.
+
+"Hello, Anna and mom! I'm so happy to see you!" aunt Lily said.
+
+"Hello, aunt Lily! We brought you a gift!" Anna said. She held up a paper with a drawing of a cat and some flowers. She had used many colors to make it pretty.
+
+"Oh, what a lovely gift! Thank you, Anna!" aunt Lily said. She took the paper and looked at it. She saw that Anna had also written her name and a heart at the bottom. But she did not write it with letters. She wrote it with signs.
+
+"Aunt Lily, do you know what this is?" Anna asked. She pointed to her name.
+
+"Yes, I do! It's your name in sign language!" aunt Lily said. She was very impressed. She knew that Anna had been learning sign language at school.
+
+"Yes, it is! I learned it from my teacher. She is deaf and she teaches us how to sign. It's fun and cool!" Anna said.
+
+"That's wonderful, Anna! I'm so proud of you! You are very smart and kind. Can you teach me how to sign?" aunt Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, aunt Lily! I can teach you some signs. Like this one. It means 'I love you'." Anna said. She showed aunt Lily how to make the sign with her hand.
+
+Aunt Lily copied the sign and smiled. She hugged Anna and said "I love you too, Anna. You are the best niece ever."
+
+Anna hugged her back and said "I love you too, aunt Lily. You are the best aunt ever."
+
+They both laughed and went inside to have some cookies and milk. Coco came to join them and purred. He was happy to have visitors. Anna, mom, aunt Lily and Coco had a great time together. They talked, signed, played and cuddled. They were a happy family.
+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.
+
+One time, the ball rolled into the bushes. Tom and Lily followed it, but they could not see it. They heard a loud roar. They saw a huge lion in the bushes. The lion had their ball in its mouth. Tom and Lily were very scared. They ran away from the lion.
+
+"Help! Help!" they shouted. "There is a huge lion in the park!"
+
+A man heard their shouts. He was a zookeeper. He had come to the park to rescue the lion. The lion had escaped from the zoo. The zookeeper had a big net and a truck. He ran to the bushes and threw the net over the lion. He put the lion in the truck and drove away.
+
+"Are you okay, kids?" he asked Tom and Lily.
+
+"Yes, thank you," they said. "You rescued us from the lion. But what about our ball?"
+
+The zookeeper smiled. He reached into the truck and took out their ball. He gave it back to them.
+
+"Here you go," he said. "Sorry for the trouble. The lion likes to play with balls too. But he belongs in the zoo, not in the park. Be careful next time, okay?"
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They thanked the zookeeper again and hugged their ball. They were happy to have their ball back. They decided to play closer to their mom and dad. They did not want to meet any more huge lions.
+Sam and Mia like to play with their toys. They have many toys, but their favorite is the police car. The police car is modern. It has lights, sounds and doors that open and close.
+
+One day, Sam and Mia decide to play a game. They pretend that they are police and they have to catch a bad guy. The bad guy is a teddy bear. They put the teddy bear on the sofa and say, "Stop, you are under arrest!"
+
+They run to the police car and get inside. They turn on the lights and sounds and drive around the room. They make siren noises and say, "We are the police, we are coming for you!"
+
+They reach the sofa and jump out of the car. They grab the teddy bear and say, "We got you, bad guy! You are going to jail!"
+
+They put the teddy bear in the back of the car and close the door. They drive to the corner of the room and say, "This is the jail. You have to stay here until you say sorry."
+
+They are very happy with their game. They high-five each other and say, "We are the best police ever!"
+Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a small animal in the grass. It is a bird. The bird is weak. It cannot fly.
+
+"Look, a bird!" Tom says. "It is hurt. We need to help it."
+
+"How can we help it?" Lily asks.
+
+"We can supply it with food and water. And we can make it a nest." Tom says.
+
+They find some bread and a bottle of water in their backpacks. They break the bread into small pieces and put them near the bird. They pour some water into a cap and place it next to the bread. They also find some sticks and leaves and make a nest for the bird.
+
+"Here you go, bird. Eat and drink. Rest in the nest. You will feel better soon." Tom says.
+
+The bird looks at them with its bright eyes. It pecks at the bread and drinks the water. It hops into the nest and snuggles in the leaves. It chirps softly.
+
+"Thank you, Tom and Lily. You are very kind." The bird says.
+
+Tom and Lily smile. They are happy to help the bird. They sit next to the nest and watch the bird. They hope it will fly again.
+Anna and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big tree with many red picks on it. Anna likes red picks. She wants to eat one.
+
+"Ben, help me get a red pick!" Anna says.
+
+Ben nods. He is a good brother. He tries to lift Anna up to the tree. But Anna is too heavy. Ben cannot lift her.
+
+"Ow, Ben, you are hurting me!" Anna cries.
+
+"Sorry, Anna, you are too big. I cannot lift you," Ben says.
+
+Anna is sad. She really wants a red pick. She looks around. She sees a little stool near the tree. She has an idea.
+
+"Ben, look! A little stool! We can use it to get a red pick!" Anna says.
+
+She runs to the stool. She drags it to the tree. She climbs on it. She reaches for a red pick. But the red pick is still too high. She cannot touch it.
+
+"Ben, I need your help!" Anna says.
+
+Ben comes to the stool. He stands on it with Anna. He is taller than Anna. He can touch the red pick. He pulls it from the tree. He gives it to Anna.
+
+"Here you go, Anna. A red pick for you," Ben says.
+
+Anna smiles. She is happy. She thanks Ben. She bites the red pick. It is sweet and juicy. She shares it with Ben.
+
+"Ben, you are the best brother. I love you," Anna says.
+
+"I love you too, Anna. You are the best sister," Ben says.
+
+They hug. They enjoy the red pick. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. They were very creative.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Snowman!" Lily said. "Do you like your new place?"
+
+"Yes, I do. Thank you, Lily and Ben. You are very kind," Mr. Snowman said.
+
+Lily and Ben were surprised. They did not know that snowmen could talk.
+
+"How can you talk, Mr. Snowman?" Ben asked.
+
+"I can talk because you gave me a magic hat. It makes me alive," Mr. Snowman said.
+
+"Wow, that is amazing!" Lily said. "Can we be your friends?"
+
+"Of course, you can. You are my first friends," Mr. Snowman said.
+
+Lily and Ben were very happy. They played with Mr. Snowman for a long time. They made snowballs and snow angels. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But soon, they started to feel cold. They began to shiver.
+
+"Brrr, it is very cold. We should go home," Lily said.
+
+"Yes, you should. You don't want to get sick," Mr. Snowman said.
+
+"Will you be okay, Mr. Snowman?" Ben asked.
+
+"Yes, I will. I like the cold. It keeps me from melting," Mr. Snowman said.
+
+"Okay, then. Goodbye, Mr. Snowman. We will come back tomorrow," Lily said.
+
+"Goodbye, Lily and Ben. I will wait for you," Mr. Snowman said.
+
+Lily and Ben waved to Mr. Snowman. They ran back to their home. They were very warm and cozy. They told their mom about their new friend. She smiled and hugged them. She was very proud of their creative story.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to play in the garden. She liked to smell the flowers and watch the bugs. One day, she saw a big, hairy spider on a leaf. She was not scared of the spider. She wanted to say hello.
+
+She went closer to the spider and said, "Hi, spider. You are very hairy. Do you like the garden?" The spider did not say anything. It just moved its legs and eyes. Lily smiled and said, "You are funny, spider. Can I be your friend?"
+
+The spider nodded and made a little web for Lily. It was a pretty web with sparkles and drops. Lily was happy and said, "Wow, spider. You are very clever. You made a beautiful web for me. Thank you, spider. You are a good friend."
+
+She gave the spider a hug and a kiss. The spider tickled her with its legs and made a happy sound. Lily and the spider played in the garden until it was time to go home. Lily said, "Bye, spider. I will come back tomorrow. I love you, spider." The spider waved and said, "Bye, Lily. I love you, too."
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the garden. One day, they find a big tent in the garden. It is green and has a door and windows.
+
+"Wow, look at the tent!" Lily says. "Can we go inside?"
+
+"Yes, let's go!" Ben says. They run to the tent and open the door. They see pillows, blankets, books and toys inside. They are very happy.
+
+They play with the toys and read the books. They make a fort with the blankets and pillows. They pretend they are camping in the woods. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is their big brother, Tom. He is angry.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing in my tent?" Tom shouts. "This is mine, not yours! Get out!"
+
+Lily and Ben are scared. They notice Tom is bigger and stronger than them. They don't want to fight with him.
+
+"But we just wanted to play," Lily says. "We didn't know it was your tent."
+
+"Well, now you know. Go away!" Tom says. He pushes them out of the tent and closes the door.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They walk away from the tent. They feel unlucky.
+
+But then, they see their mom. She is smiling. She has a surprise for them.
+
+"Hi, Lily and Ben. I have something for you," she says. She shows them a big box. It has a picture of a tent on it.
+
+"It's a tent for you!" she says. "You can set it up in the garden and play in it whenever you want. It's yours, not Tom's."
+
+Lily and Ben are very happy. They hug their mom and thank her. They open the box and see a tent. It is blue and has stars and moons on it.
+
+"Wow, look at our tent!" Lily says. "It's so pretty!"
+
+"Yes, let's set it up!" Ben says. They take the tent out of the box and follow the instructions. They put the poles and the fabric together. They make their own tent.
+
+They go inside their tent. They see pillows, blankets, books and toys inside. They are very happy.
+
+They play with the toys and read the books. They make a fort with the blankets and pillows. They pretend they are camping in the sky. They have a lot of fun.
+
+They feel lucky. They have their own tent. They don't need Tom's tent. They are happy twins.
+Lily liked to play in the rain. She put on her boots and coat and ran outside. She jumped in the puddles and made splashes. She was very wet and happy.
+
+But then the rain stopped and the sun came out. Lily felt hot and sticky. She wanted to dry off. She looked for a towel, but she could not find one. She saw a big white sheet hanging on a clothesline. She thought it was a towel. She ran to it and wrapped it around her.
+
+But the sheet was not a towel. It was a ghost! The ghost was very surprised. He did not like to be wet. He wanted to scare Lily, but he saw that she was just a little girl. He felt sorry for her. He decided to be friendly.
+
+He said, "Boo! I am a ghost. Do not be afraid. I will help you dry off." He shook the sheet and made a breeze. He blew on Lily and made her cool. He lifted her up and made her fly. He made her laugh and smile.
+
+Lily was not afraid. She liked the ghost. She said, "Thank you, ghost. You are very nice. You are my friend." She gave him a hug. The ghost was happy. He said, "You are welcome, Lily. You are my friend too." They played together until it was time to go inside.
+Ben likes to play with his toys. He has a lot of toys, but his favorite is a sock puppet. He calls it Socky. He makes Socky talk and sing and tell jokes. He takes Socky everywhere with him.
+
+One day, Ben goes to the park with his mom and Socky. He sees some other kids playing on the swings and slides. He wants to join them, but he is shy. He holds Socky close and says, "Socky, will you be my friend?"
+
+Socky nods and says, "Yes, Ben, I will be your friend. You are very nice to me. You always thank me for making you happy. You are the best."
+
+Ben smiles and hugs Socky. He feels brave and walks to the other kids. He says, "Hi, I am Ben. This is Socky. Can we play with you?"
+
+The other kids look at Ben and Socky. They laugh and point. They say, "That is not a real toy. That is a fake toy. That is just a sock with eyes and a mouth. That is silly. You are silly. Go away."
+
+Ben feels sad and hurt. He runs back to his mom and cries. He says, "Mom, they don't like me. They don't like Socky. They say Socky is fake. They say Socky is not a real friend."
+
+His mom hugs him and says, "I'm sorry, Ben. Some kids can be mean. But Socky is not fake. Socky is real to you. Socky is your friend. And I am your friend. And you have other friends who like you and Socky. Don't let them make you feel bad. You are a good boy. And Socky is a good sock."
+
+Ben wipes his tears and says, "Thank you, Mom. You are right. I love you. And I love Socky. Socky is a good sock. Socky is my friend."
+
+He looks at Socky and says, "Socky, are you okay?"
+
+Socky does not answer. Socky does not move. Socky does not talk. Socky does not sing. Socky does not tell jokes.
+
+Ben shakes Socky and says, "Socky, please talk to me. Please be my friend."
+
+But Socky is still silent. Socky is still still. Socky is still sock.
+
+Ben realizes that Socky is broken. Socky is not alive. Socky is not real.
+
+Ben screams and throws Socky away. He says, "Socky, you lied to me. You are fake. You are not my friend. You are just a sock. I hate you. I hate you. I hate you."
+
+The end.
+Lila loves to play with her mom's perfume. She likes to smell the different bottles and spray them on her arms. She thinks they make her smell pretty and unique, like a princess.
+
+One day, she finds a new perfume in her mom's drawer. It is in a shiny gold bottle with a red cap. Lila is curious and wants to try it. She opens the cap and sprays some on her neck. But it does not smell good. It smells bad and strong. Lila coughs and feels dizzy.
+
+She runs to her mom and says, "Mom, mom, I sprayed your perfume and it smells bad. I don't like it. It hurts my nose."
+
+Her mom looks at her and sees the gold bottle in her hand. She gasps and says, "Lila, that is not perfume. That is pepper spray. It is for protection. It is very dangerous. You should never touch it."
+
+She takes the bottle from Lila and puts it away. She hugs Lila and says, "I'm sorry, sweetie. You must be very scared. Let me help you. We need to wash your face and neck with water and soap. And we need to rub some cream on your skin. It will make you feel better."
+
+Lila nods and follows her mom to the bathroom. She lets her mom wash and rub her gently. She still feels a little pain, but she also feels her mom's love. She says, "I'm sorry, mom. I won't play with your perfume again. I love you."

+Her mom smiles and says, "I love you too, Lila. You are my unique and precious girl. But please, be careful next time. And ask me before you use anything from my drawer."
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with their soft toys and make up stories. One day, Lily got a new toy from her grandma. It was a big, soft bear with a red bow. Lily loved her bear and hugged it all the time.
+
+Ben was happy for Lily, but he also felt sad. He wanted a new toy too. His old toys were not so soft and nice. He wished his grandma would send him a toy for his birthday. His birthday was in two weeks. He hoped he would get a toy as good as Lily's bear.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben were playing in the park. Lily brought her bear with her. She put it on a bench while she went to swing. Ben saw the bear and had a bad idea. He thought, maybe if he took the bear, Lily would share her toys with him. He grabbed the bear and ran away.
+
+Lily saw Ben running with her bear. She was very angry and scared. She shouted, "Ben, stop! That's my bear! Give it back!" She ran after him, but he was too fast. He ran out of the park and into the street.
+
+Ben did not look where he was going. He did not see the big car coming. The car hit him and the bear. Ben and the bear flew in the air and landed on the ground. They did not move. Lily saw what happened and screamed. She ran to Ben and the bear. She cried and cried. She wished she had her bear back. She wished Ben was okay. She wished they were still friends. But it was too late. The end.
+Anna liked to play with her dolls in her room. She had many dolls and she gave them names and stories. She was very creative and made them clothes and hats from old socks and paper. She liked to talk to them and pretend they were her friends.

+One day, her mom came to her room and said, "Anna, it is time to clean your room. There is too much dust and mess. You need to put away your dolls and toys and help me with the vacuum."
+
+Anna did not want to clean her room. She wanted to play with her dolls. She said, "No, mom, I do not want to clean. I want to play. My dolls need me. They are having a tea party."
+
+Her mom was not happy. She said, "Anna, you are being naughty. You have to listen to me. Cleaning is important. If you do not clean, you will get sick from the dust and the germs. And your dolls will get dirty too. Do you want that?"
+
+Anna did not reply. She turned away and hugged her dolls. She did not care about the dust and the germs. She only cared about her dolls.
+
+Her mom sighed and left the room. She hoped Anna would change her mind and help her later. But Anna did not. She kept playing with her dolls and ignored her mom.
+
+The next day, Anna woke up feeling very sick. She had a fever and a cough and a sore throat. She could not play with her dolls. She could only lie in bed and feel miserable. Her mom came to her room and checked her temperature. She said, "Anna, you are very sick. You have to go to the doctor. Maybe you got sick from the dust and the germs in your room. You should have cleaned your room when I asked you."
+
+Anna felt sorry and sad. She wished she had listened to her mom. She wished she had cleaned her room. She wished she could play with her dolls. But she could not. She had to go to the doctor and take medicine and rest. She learned a hard lesson. She realized that cleaning was important and that playing was not always fun.

+The man looks at Tom and Sam. He does not answer. He rolls up his window and turns on the radio. He ignores the boys.
+
+Tom and Sam are confused. They do not like the man. He is rude and mean. They question why he is here.
+
+"Let's go back, Tom," Sam says. "He is not nice. He does not want to talk to us."
+
+"Okay, Sam," Tom says. "Maybe he is hiding something in his van. Maybe he is a bad guy."
+
+They run back to their house. They tell their mom about the van and the man. Their mom calls the police. She says the van and the man are suspicious. She wants them to go away.

+But Mia does not listen. She runs to the dog. The dog growls and shows its teeth. Mia stops and cries.
+
+"Help, Tom, help!" Mia shouts.

+
+"No, you can't!" Ben says. "I can run faster than you!"
+
+They start to run to the tree. They run and run. They are very fast. But Anna is a little faster than Ben. She gets to the tree first.

+Ben said, "I don't care. I don't want to unpack. I want to play. Come on, let's go to the garden and play with the swing and the ball."
+
+Lily said, "No, Ben. We have to unpack first. It is not nice to leave your things like that. Grandma will be angry if she sees your mess."
+
+Ben said, "No, Lily. You are boring. You always do what Grandma says. You are a baby. I am a big boy. I can do what I want."
+
+Lily said, "No, Ben. You are not a big boy. You are a naughty boy. You have to listen to Grandma and be good."
+
+Ben said, "No, Lily. You are a silly girl. You have to listen to me and be fun."
+
+They started to argue and shout. They did not hear Grandma coming to their room. She heard their noise and opened the door. She saw Ben's mess and Lily's tears. She said, "Oh, dear! What is going on here?"
+Anna and Ben are playing with a ball in the park. They like to throw the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they miss and the ball rolls away. They run after it and laugh.
+
+"Throw it to me, Ben!" Anna says.
+
+"OK, Anna!" Ben says. He throws the ball high in the air. Anna tries to catch it, but it is too high. The ball goes over her head and lands in a bush.
+
+"Oops!" Ben says.
+
+Anna runs to the bush and looks for the ball. She sees something shiny in the bush. It is a necklace with a pretty stone. She picks it up and puts it around her neck.
+
+"Look, Ben! I found a necklace!" Anna says. She shows him the necklace.
+
+"Wow, Anna! It is very pretty!" Ben says. He looks at the necklace and smiles. "Can I see it?"
+
+Anna shakes her head. "No, Ben. It is mine. I found it. You can't have it."
+
+Ben frowns. "That is not fair, Anna. You have the ball and the necklace. I have nothing. You should share with me. We are friends."
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She likes the necklace, but she also likes Ben. She does not want to make him sad. She remembers what her mother told her. "Sharing is caring," her mother said.
+
+"OK, Ben. You are right. It is not fair. I will share with you. You can have the necklace for a little while. Then I can have it back. OK?" Anna says.
+
+Ben nods. "OK, Anna. Thank you. You are a good friend." He takes the necklace and puts it around his neck. He gives Anna the ball.
+
+They hug and smile. They throw the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they miss and the ball rolls away. They run after it and laugh.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. Sometimes they kick a ball. Sometimes they swing on the swings. Sometimes they slide on the slide.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben see a new girl in the park. She has long hair and a pink dress. She sits on a bench with a teddy bear and a cup of tea. She does not play with anyone.
+
+Anna and Ben want to say hello to the new girl. But they are shy. They do not know her name. They do not know if she is nice. They do not know if she likes to play.
+
+Anna and Ben whisper to each other. They make a plan. They take their ball and walk to the bench. They smile at the new girl. They say, "Hi, we are Anna and Ben. Do you want to play with us?"
+
+The new girl looks at them. She smiles back. She says, "Hi, I am Lily. Thank you for asking. I would like to play with you. But can I finish my tea first? It is my favorite."
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They sit on the bench with Lily. They talk about their ball, their swings, their slide, and their teddy bears. They become friends. They finish their tea. Then they go to play. They kick the ball. They swing on the swings. They slide on the slide. They have fun. They are not shy anymore.
+Ben and Lily liked to play hide and seek in the dark. They used a flashlight to find each other. One night, they decided to play in the basement, where it was very dark and spooky.
+
+Ben went to hide first. He found a big box and crawled inside. He turned off the flashlight and waited for Lily to find him. He heard her footsteps and her voice calling his name.
+
+"Lily, Lily, where are you?" she said.
+
+Ben smiled and stayed quiet. He wanted to surprise her. He heard her come closer and closer. He was ready to jump out and say boo.
+
+But then, he heard a loud noise. It sounded like a door slamming. He heard Lily scream.
+
+"Ben, Ben, help me! The door is locked! I can't get out!"
+
+Ben felt scared. He turned on the flashlight and got out of the box. He ran to the door and tried to open it. It was locked. He banged on it and shouted.
+
+"Mom, Dad, help us! We are stuck in the basement!"
+
+He heard his parents' voices from upstairs. They heard him and Lily. They came down and unlocked the door. They hugged Ben and Lily and asked them what happened.
+
+"We were playing hide and seek and the door locked by itself," Ben said.
+
+"That's strange. Maybe the wind blew it shut. You should be more careful when you play in the dark. It can be dangerous," Mom said.
+
+"Sorry, Mom. We won't do it again," Lily said.
+
+"Are you okay, Ben? You were very brave and helpful to Lily," Dad said.
+
+"I'm okay, Dad. I'm glad you came. I was scared too," Ben said.
+
+They all went upstairs and had some cookies and milk. Ben and Lily decided to play something else next time. They learned that playing in the dark was not so fun after all.
+Lily and Tom like to play with matches. They find them in a box under the bed. They take them to the garden and light them on the grass. They watch the fire and laugh.
+
+But one day, Mom sees them. She is very angry. She runs to the garden and puts out the fire. She takes the matches and scolds Lily and Tom. She says matches are not toys. They are dangerous and bad. She says they could burn the house or hurt themselves.
+
+Lily and Tom are sad and sorry. They say they will not play with matches again. Mom hugs them and says she loves them. She says they have to return the matches to the box. She says they have to find a new game to play.
+
+They go back to the house and put the matches in the box. They look for a new game. They see a puzzle on the shelf. They decide to try it. They open the box and dump the pieces on the floor. They start to look for the ones that match.
+
+But the puzzle is disgusting. It has pictures of worms and spiders and snakes. Lily and Tom do not like them. They scream and drop the pieces. They run away from the puzzle. They say they do not want to play with it.
+
+Mom hears them and comes to see. She sees the puzzle and laughs. She says it is a joke puzzle. She says it is for grown-ups who like to be scared. She says they can choose another puzzle. She says they have many nice ones with animals and flowers and cars.
+
+Lily and Tom are happy. They say they like nice puzzles. They pick one with a big rainbow and a unicorn. They start to make it. They find the ones that match. They have fun. They forget about the matches and the disgusting puzzle.
+Sam and Mia were playing with their toy boats in the bathtub. They liked to make waves and splash each other. But they had to be careful not to let their boats go down the drain. The drain was a big hole that sucked the water and anything else that was in the tub.
+
+"Look, Mia, my boat is faster than yours!" Sam said, as he pushed his red boat across the water.
+
+"No, it's not! My boat is faster and prettier!" Mia said, as she pushed her yellow boat after his.
+
+They raced their boats until they reached the other end of the tub. Then they turned them around and raced back. But as they did, Sam's boat got too close to the drain and started to spin.
+
+"Sam, your boat is going to the drain!" Mia shouted.
+
+"Help, help, please!" Sam cried. He tried to grab his boat, but it was too late. The drain pulled his boat in and it disappeared.
+
+"Sam, I'm sorry, your boat is gone!" Mia said. She hugged her brother and gave him her boat. "Here, you can have my boat. I don't need it."
+
+Sam sniffed and smiled. He hugged his sister back and took her boat. "Thank you, Mia. You are very nice. I love you."
+
+"I love you too, Sam. And don't worry, maybe we can find your boat later. Maybe it's not gone forever. Maybe it's just in the old pipes under the house."
+
+They hoped that was true. They hoped that Sam's boat was not lost, but just hiding. They hoped that one day, they would see it again.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to dig in the sand and look for treasures. One day, they found a shiny stone that sparkled in the sun. It was a gem!
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Ben said. "It's so pretty!"
+
+"Let me see!" Lily said. She tried to grab the gem from Ben, but she was clumsy. She dropped it and it rolled away.
+
+"Hey, that's mine!" Ben shouted. He ran after the gem, but he tripped over a rock and fell down.
+
+"Ouch!" he cried. He scraped his knee and it hurt.
+
+Lily felt sorry for Ben. She saw the gem near a bush. She picked it up and ran to Ben.
+
+"Here, you can have it," she said. "I'm sorry I was clumsy. Are you okay?"
+
+Ben looked at Lily and smiled. He took the gem and gave it back to her.
+
+"Thank you," he said. "But you can keep it. You found it with me. We can share it."
+
+Lily hugged Ben and they both smiled. They learned that sharing is better than fighting, and that being clumsy is not so bad if you have a friend. They put the gem in their pocket and went back to play. They were happy.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with tools. They have hammers, nails, saws and planks. They want to make a house for their toys.
+
+They find a big tree in the park. They say, "This is a good place for our house." They start to work. They hammer and saw and nail. They are happy.
+
+But a man comes. He is angry. He says, "This is my tree. You can't use it. Go away!" He takes their tools. He breaks their planks. He throws them on the ground.
+
+Tom and Jen are sad. They cry. They say, "Why are you so mean? We just want to play." The man says, "I don't care. This is my tree. You have to leave."
+
+Tom and Jen have no tools. They have no planks. They have no house. They have to go home. They are very sad. They have no fun. The end.
+Ben and Lily were restless. They wanted to play outside, but it was raining. They looked around the room for something fun to do. They saw a big metal box under the bed. It had a lock on it, but no key.
+
+"What is in there?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe a treasure!" Lily said.
+
+They decided to crawl under the bed and try to open the box. They pushed and pulled, but the lock was too strong. They heard a click and a beep. The box started to make a strange noise.
+
+"Uh-oh. What did we do?" Ben said.
+
+"Maybe we should get out of here!" Lily said.
+
+They crawled out from under the bed and ran to the door. But the door was locked too. They tried to turn the knob, but it did not move. They heard another click and a beep. The box under the bed started to glow.
+
+"Help! Help!" Ben and Lily shouted.
+
+They banged on the door and hoped someone would hear them. They were scared of the metal box and what it might do. They wished they had not been so restless and curious. They wished they had played with their toys instead.
+Tom and Lily were playing outside with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they missed the ball and it rolled away, but they ran after it and laughed.
+
+But then they saw dark clouds in the sky. They heard a loud noise like a big drum. They felt drops of water on their faces. It was a storm. Tom and Lily were scared. They wanted to go inside.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, can we go inside?" they cried. They ran to the door and knocked.
+
+Mommy opened the door and smiled. She hugged them and said, "Don't worry, my loves. It's just a storm. It will go away soon. Come inside and we'll have some cookies and milk."
+
+She took them to the kitchen and gave them a plate of cookies and two glasses of milk. She sat with them and said, "Do you know what a storm is? It's when the clouds and the wind and the rain make a lot of noise. But they are not angry. They are just doing their job. They help the plants and the animals and the people by giving them water and air. Sometimes they make beautiful things like rainbows and snowflakes."
+
+Tom and Lily listened to mommy and looked out the window. They saw the rain falling and the wind blowing. They saw a flash of light and heard another loud noise. They were still a little scared, but they felt better.
+
+Mommy encouraged them and said, "You are very brave, Tom and Lily. You can watch the storm and learn from it. Maybe you can make a picture of it later. Or you can tell me a story about it. Or you can sing a song about it. You can do anything you want, because you are smart and creative and wonderful."
+
+Tom and Lily smiled and hugged mommy. They felt her gentle touch and her warm voice. They felt happy and safe. They ate their cookies and drank their milk. They watched the storm and wondered what they would do next.
+Lily and Ben were going to the beach with Mom and Dad. They were very happy. They wanted to play in the sand and swim in the water. Mom said they had to pack some things first. She gave them a big bag and told them to put in some clothes, towels, hats and sunscreen.
+
+Lily and Ben ran to their room and packed their things. Lily packed her pink dress, her blue towel, her yellow hat and her sunscreen. Ben packed his green shirt, his red towel, his brown hat and his sunscreen. They zipped up the bag and brought it to Mom.
+
+Mom smiled and said they did a good job. She said they also needed some food and drinks. She asked them what they wanted to eat. Lily said she wanted tuna. Ben said he wanted tuna too. Mom said that was a good choice. She opened a can of tuna and made some sandwiches. She wrapped them in foil and put them in a cooler. She also packed some water, juice, apples and cookies.
+
+Mom said they were ready to go. She put the bag and the cooler in the car. Lily and Ben put on their hats and sunscreen. They got in the car and buckled their seatbelts. Dad started the car and drove to the beach.
+
+Lily and Ben had an incredible day at the beach. They played in the sand and made a big castle. They swam in the water and saw some fish. They ate their tuna sandwiches and shared their cookies. They drank their water and juice and felt refreshed. They laughed and had fun. They thanked Mom and Dad for taking them to the beach. They said it was the best day ever.
+Lily and Max were playing with their toy cars on the floor. They liked to make them go fast and make loud noises. Lily had a pink car and Max had a blue car.
+
+"Look, my car is faster than yours!" Max said, zooming his car past Lily's.
+
+"No, it's not!" Lily said, chasing him with her car. "My car is prettier than yours!"
+
+They raced around the room, laughing and having fun. But then, Max's car bumped into a big book that was on the floor. The book fell over and hit a vase on the table. The vase wobbled and tipped over, spilling water and flowers everywhere.
+
+"Oh no!" Max and Lily said together. They stopped their cars and looked at the mess. They were scared that Mommy would be angry.
+
+"What do we do?" Lily asked.
+
+Max had an idea. He saw an arrow on the wall. It was part of a picture that Mommy had made. The arrow was pointing to the right.
+
+"Maybe we can reverse what happened!" Max said. "If we follow the arrow, maybe we can go back in time and stop the book from falling!"
+
+Lily thought that was a good idea. She nodded and picked up her car. Max picked up his car too. They held their cars in front of them and walked backwards, following the arrow.
+
+They hoped that they could reverse the mess and make Mommy happy.
+Tom is a big boy. He likes to do things by himself. He is independent. He does not need help from Mom or Dad.
+
+One day, Tom wants to go outside and play. He puts on his shoes and socks. He ties his laces. He is proud of himself. He opens the door and runs to the yard.
+
+But he does not see the rock. He trips and falls. He hurts his toe. It is red and sore. He cries. He wants Mom or Dad.
+
+He limps back to the house. He knocks on the door. He asks for help. Mom opens the door. She sees Tom's toe. She hugs him and kisses him. She says, "It's OK, Tom. I will make it better."
+
+She takes him to the bathroom. She washes his toe. She puts a band-aid on it. She gives him a cookie. She says, "You are a brave boy, Tom. You are independent. But sometimes, it's OK to ask for help. I love you, Tom."
+
+Tom smiles. He says, "I love you, Mom. Thank you for helping me." He feels better. He goes back to the yard. He plays with his ball. He is careful of the rock. He is happy.
+Sara and Ben like to play with their toy trains. They have many trains of different colors and sizes. They make tracks on the floor and pretend to be drivers.
+
+One day, they find a new train in their toy box. It is a big, red engine with a shiny whistle. It looks very unusual. Sara and Ben are curious and want to try it.
+
+They put the engine on the track and push a button. The engine makes a loud noise and starts to move. Sara and Ben are happy and clap their hands.
+
+But then, the engine does something strange. It stops and turns to Sara and Ben. It opens its mouth and says, "Hello, I am Eddie the engine. Do you want to talk to me?"
+
+Sara and Ben are surprised and scared. They have never heard a toy train talk before. They look at each other and don't know what to say.
+
+"Are you my friends?" Eddie asks. "I am lonely and I want to play with you."
+
+Sara and Ben feel sorry for Eddie. He seems nice and friendly. They decide to talk to him and learn more about him.
+
+"Hi, Eddie," Sara says. "We are Sara and Ben. We like to play with trains too."
+
+"Really?" Eddie says. "That's great. Can I join you?"
+
+"Sure," Ben says. "You can be our leader. You have a very cool whistle."
+
+"Thank you," Eddie says. "You are very kind. I think we will have a lot of fun together."
+
+Sara and Ben smile and nod. They take Eddie by the hand and show him their other trains. They talk and play and laugh. They have a new friend. Eddie is unusual, but he is also very special.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and find shiny stones. They called them minerals. They had a big box where they kept their minerals. They thought they were very rich.
+
+One day, a big dog came into the garden. It was black and brown and had sharp teeth. It barked loudly and ran towards Tom and Lily. They were scared. They dropped their shovels and ran to the house.
+
+"Help! Help!" they cried. "There is a big dog in the garden!"
+
+Their mom heard them and came out. She saw the dog and shouted at it. "Go away! Go away! This is not your place!"
+
+The dog stopped and looked at her. It wagged its tail and licked its lips. It saw the box of minerals and ran to it. It wanted to play with the shiny stones.
+
+"Mom, look! The dog is taking our minerals!" Tom said.
+
+"No, no, no!" Lily said. "Those are ours! We worked hard to find them!"
+
+Their mom grabbed a broom and ran to the dog. She waved the broom and hit the dog on the nose. "Bad dog! Bad dog! Leave the minerals alone!"
+
+The dog yelped and ran away. It was afraid of the broom. It jumped over the fence and disappeared.
+
+Tom and Lily hugged their mom. "Thank you, mom! Thank you for protecting us and our minerals!" they said.
+
+"You're welcome, my loves. You're welcome." their mom said. "But next time, be careful. Don't play near the fence. There might be other dogs or strangers."
+
+"OK, mom. We will." Tom and Lily said. They picked up their shovels and their box of minerals. They went back to the garden and continued to dig. They were happy and safe.
+Anna and Ben are twins who live on a farm with their mom and dad. They like to help with the animals and the plants, but sometimes they get bored and want to do something new. One day, they find a big box of paints and brushes in the barn and decide to have some fun.
+
+"Let's paint the farm!" Anna says. "We can make it look different and pretty!"
+
+"Good idea!" Ben agrees. "But we have to be careful and not make a mess."
+
+They start to paint the barn, the fence, the tractor, and the animals. They use many colors and shapes, and they think they are very original. They laugh and have a good time, but they do not notice that they are using too much paint and making a big mess.
+
+Soon, their mom and dad come back from the market and see what they have done. They are very angry and shocked.
+
+"What have you done?" their mom asks. "You have ruined the farm! How could you be so careless and wasteful?"
+
+"We were just painting, mom!" Anna says. "We wanted to make the farm look different and pretty!"
+
+"But you did not ask us, and you did not think of the consequences!" their dad says. "You have wasted a lot of paint, and you have made the animals and the plants unhappy and sick. You have to repeat everything and clean up the mess!"
+
+Anna and Ben feel very sorry and ashamed. They realize that they have made a big mistake, and that they have to fix it. They apologize to their mom and dad, and to the animals and the plants. They work hard to repeat everything and clean up the mess. They learn that they should respect the farm and the nature, and that they should not try to change what is already good and original. They also learn that they should ask for permission and be careful when they want to do something new. They promise to never paint the farm again, and to use their paints and brushes only for paper and canvas.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big truck with ice cream. They ran to the truck and asked for ice cream. The man gave them each a cone with a scoop of ice cream on top.
+
+Lily and Ben were happy. They licked their ice cream and walked around the park. They saw a slide, a swing, and a sandbox. They wanted to play with everything.
+
+But then, something bad happened. Ben tripped on a rock and fell down. His cone broke and his ice cream fell on the ground. Ben was sad. He cried and said, "My ice cream is gone!"
+
+Lily felt sorry for Ben. She wanted to help him. She looked around and saw a mysterious bush. She went to the bush and peeked inside. She saw something shiny and round. She reached for it and pulled it out.
+
+It was a metal cone with a button on it. Lily did not know what it was, but she thought it looked like a toy. She ran to Ben and said, "Look, Ben, I found a cone for you! Maybe it has ice cream inside!"
+
+Ben stopped crying and looked at the cone. He was curious. He pressed the button and waited. But nothing happened. He pressed it again and again. Still nothing.
+
+Lily and Ben were disappointed. They thought the cone was broken. They threw it away and went to the slide. They forgot about the cone.
+
+But the cone was not broken. It was a rocket. And when they threw it away, it landed on a pile of leaves. The leaves caught fire and made a big flame. The flame made the rocket fly into the sky. It zoomed past the birds and the clouds and the stars. It went to the moon and beyond.
+
+Lily and Ben did not see the rocket. They did not know they had a cone that could go to space. They only knew they had fun playing in the park. And they hoped they would get ice cream again.
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to go to the park with their grandma. Grandma was elderly and had white hair and glasses. She always smiled and told them stories. One day, they saw a man at the park who was very big and had many muscles. He was lifting heavy things and making loud noises.
+
+"Wow, look at him!" Ben said. "He is so strong!"
+
+"I want to be like him when I grow up," Lily said.
+
+Grandma gazed at the man and shook her head. "He is not as strong as he thinks," she said. "He is only using his muscles, not his mind. And he is not very kind. He does not share his things or say hello to anyone."
+
+Ben and Lily did not understand. They thought the man was cool and wanted to play with him. They ran towards him and asked if they could try his things. The man frowned and yelled at them. He said they were too small and weak and told them to go away.
+
+Ben and Lily felt sad and scared. They ran back to grandma and hugged her. Grandma hugged them back and said, "Don't worry, my dears. He is not worth your time. You are strong in your own way. You are smart and brave and kind. And you have each other. That is more important than any muscle."
+
+Ben and Lily smiled and nodded. They realized that grandma was right. They did not need to be like the man. They were happy to be themselves. They thanked grandma and asked her to tell them more stories. Grandma smiled and said, "Of course. I have many stories to tell. And you have many stories to make." They sat on a bench and listened to grandma's stories. They gazed at the sky and the trees and the birds. They felt warm and safe and loved.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play hockey in the park. They have sticks and a ball. They hit the ball with the sticks and try to score goals.
+
+One day, they see a big dog in the park. The dog is black and has sharp teeth. It barks and runs towards them. Tom and Sam are scared. They drop their sticks and ball and run away.
+
+"Help! Help!" they shout. "A scary dog is chasing us!"
+
+A man hears them and comes to see. He is the owner of the dog. He calls the dog by its name.
+
+"Rex! Rex! Come here, boy!" he says. "Don't scare the kids. They are just playing hockey."
+
+The dog stops and runs back to the man. The man pets the dog and says sorry to Tom and Sam.
+
+"I'm sorry, kids. Rex is not a bad dog. He just likes to play, too. He thought your ball was his toy. What are your names?"
+
+"I'm Tom and this is Sam," Tom says.
+
+"Nice to meet you, Tom and Sam. I'm Bob. Do you want to play hockey with me and Rex? He can be your goalie."
+
+Tom and Sam look at each other. They are not scared anymore. They think Rex is a funny dog. They nod and smile.
+
+"OK, Bob. We want to play hockey with you and Rex. But don't let him bite our ball!"
+
+They pick up their sticks and ball and go back to the park. They play hockey with Bob and Rex. They have fun and make new friends.
+Lily loved her parrot, Polly. Polly was very colorful and could talk. Lily taught Polly to say hello, bye-bye, and I love you. But Polly was also very stubborn. She did not like to stay in her cage. She liked to fly around the house and make a mess.
+
+One day, Lily's mom told her to clean her room. Lily said yes, mom, and went to her room. She left Polly in her cage, but forgot to lock it. Polly saw her chance and flew out of the cage. She followed Lily to her room and saw all the toys and books on the floor. Polly thought they were fun and started to play with them. She threw them around, bit them, and made loud noises.
+
+Lily heard Polly and turned around. She was angry and scared. She tried to catch Polly, but Polly was too fast. She flew away from Lily and hid under the bed. Lily's mom heard the noise and came to the room. She saw the mess and Polly. She was very upset. She said to Lily, "You did not clean your room. You let Polly out of her cage. You did not listen to me. You are in trouble. You have to punish Polly and put her back in her cage. Then you have to clean your room. No TV for you today."
+
+Lily felt sorry and sad. She said sorry to her mom and to Polly. She crawled under the bed and got Polly. Polly was scared too. She said sorry to Lily and to mom. Lily hugged Polly and put her back in her cage. She locked it this time. Then she cleaned her room. She learned her lesson. She loved Polly, but she had to be careful and responsible. Polly learned her lesson too. She loved Lily, but she had to be obedient and respectful. They both said I love you to each other and to mom. Mom forgave them and hugged them. She said she loved them too. They were a happy family.
+Tom is sick. He has a bad cough and a sore throat. He does not want to play or eat. He only wants to sleep.
+
+Mom is worried. She calls the doctor. The doctor says Tom needs a pill. The pill will make him feel better. The doctor will supply the pill to Mom.
+
+Mom goes to the pharmacy. She gets the pill from the doctor. She comes back home. She gives the pill to Tom. Tom does not like the pill. The pill is rough and bitter. He spits it out.
+
+Mom is sad. She tries again. She puts the pill in a spoon of honey. She says, "Tom, this is sweet. It will help you swallow the pill. Please try it."
+
+Tom trusts Mom. He opens his mouth. He takes the spoon of honey and the pill. He swallows them. He makes a face. He says, "Yuck!"
+
+Mom smiles. She hugs Tom. She says, "Good boy. You are brave. The pill will make you better soon. I love you."
+
+Tom feels a little better. He loves Mom. He says, "I love you too, Mom." He falls asleep.
+Tom was a furry cat who liked to chase his own tail. He thought it was a fun game to try to catch the round thing that moved behind him. He ran in circles, jumped and twisted, but he never succeeded. His tail was too fast and clever for him.
+
+One day, he saw a big dog in the garden. The dog had a long and fluffy tail that wagged from side to side. Tom thought that maybe he could catch the dog's tail instead of his own. He sneaked up behind the dog and pounced on his tail.
+
+"Ow! What are you doing, you silly cat?" the dog barked. He turned around and saw Tom holding his tail in his mouth. He was angry and scared. He growled and snapped at Tom, who let go of his tail and ran away.
+
+But the dog was faster and stronger than Tom. He chased him across the garden, past the flowers and the trees, and into the house. Tom tried to hide under the sofa, but the dog followed him and bit him hard. Tom cried and scratched, but he could not escape. The dog shook him like a toy and hurt him a lot.
+
+Tom wished he had never tried to catch the dog's tail. He wished he had stayed with his own tail, which was safe and friendly. He learned a hard lesson that day. He never played with his tail again. He was too sad and sore. The end.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a regular game. They take turns to be the leader and the follower. The leader shows the way and the follower does the same.
+
+One day, Lily is the leader. She runs to the slide and slides down. Ben follows her. Then she runs to the swings and swings high. Ben follows her. Then she runs to the pond and throws a stone. Ben follows her.
+
+But then Lily sees a big duck. She wants to touch it. She runs to the duck and reaches out her hand. Ben follows her. But the duck does not like it. It quacks loudly and pecks at Lily's hand. Lily cries out.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow! The duck bit me!" she says.
+
+Ben is scared. He does not want to be bitten too. He wants to prevent the duck from hurting them. He looks around and sees a stick. He picks up the stick and waves it at the duck.
+
+"Go away, duck! Go away!" he says.
+
+The duck sees the stick and gets scared. It flaps its wings and flies away. Lily and Ben are safe. They hug each other.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You saved me from the duck," Lily says.
+
+"You're welcome, Lily. You are my friend. I don't want you to be hurt," Ben says.
+
+They decide to play a different game. They run to the sandbox and make a castle. They are happy. They are regular friends.
+Tom and Lily are playing with their toy dinosaurs. Tom has a big green one with sharp teeth and a long tail. Lily has a small pink one with a horn and wings. They make loud noises and pretend to fight.
+
+"Rawr! I am the king of the dinosaurs! I will chew you up!" Tom says.
+
+"No, you won't! I am the queen of the dinosaurs! I will fly away!" Lily says.
+
+They laugh and run around the room. But then Tom trips over a book and falls down. He hurts his knee and starts to cry.
+
+Lily stops and runs to him. She sees blood on his knee and feels sorry for him.
+
+"Are you okay, Tom? Let me see your knee." Lily says.
+
+She gently touches his knee and sees a small cut. She gets a tissue and wipes the blood. She gives him a hug and a kiss.
+
+"There, there. It's not so bad. You are very brave, Tom." Lily says.
+
+Tom stops crying and smiles at her. He feels better and hugs her back.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are very kind, Lily." Tom says.
+
+They look at their toy dinosaurs and see that they are still calm. They have not moved or made any noise. They have shiny scales and friendly eyes.
+
+"Look, our dinosaurs are friends too. They don't want to fight. They want to play." Lily says.
+
+"Okay, let's play with them. But be careful, don't trip again." Tom says.
+
+They pick up their dinosaurs and start to play again. They make happy noises and pretend to fly and run. They have fun and forget about the cut. They are good friends.
+Tim and Sue like to play outside after the rain. They look for puddles to jump in and splash each other. They wear boots and coats to stay dry.
+
+One day, they find a big puddle near the park. It is shiny and deep. They run to it and start to jump. They laugh and shout.
+
+"Look, I can make a big wave!" Tim says. He jumps high and lands hard in the puddle.
+
+"Wow, that's fun!" Sue says. She jumps too and makes another wave.
+
+They keep jumping and splashing until the puddle is smaller and muddy. They are wet and happy.
+
+But then they hear a noise. It is a duck. It is quacking and flapping its wings. It looks angry.
+
+"Hey, that's my puddle!" the duck says. "You made it dirty and small. Go away!"
+
+Tim and Sue are scared. They did not know the puddle was the duck's home. They say sorry to the duck.
+
+"We are sorry, duck. We did not mean to hurt your puddle. We just wanted to play," Tim says.
+
+"Yes, we are sorry. We will leave now. Can we give you something to make you happy?" Sue says.
+
+The duck thinks for a moment. It is still mad, but it sees that Tim and Sue are sorry. It decides to be nice.
+
+"Well, you can supply me some bread. I like bread. It makes me full and happy," the duck says.
+
+"Okay, we can do that. We have some bread in our bag. We will share it with you," Tim says.
+
+They take out some bread and break it into pieces. They throw the pieces to the duck. The duck eats them and quacks happily.
+
+"Thank you, Tim and Sue. You are kind. You can come back and play with me, but only when the puddle is big and clean," the duck says.
+
+"Thank you, duck. You are nice. We will come back and play with you, but only when the puddle is big and clean," Tim and Sue say.
+
+They wave goodbye to the duck and leave the puddle. They walk back to their home. They are still wet, but they are also peaceful. They learned to be careful with other animals' homes. They made a new friend. They had a good day.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big slide. It is very wide and long. Lily and Ben want to try it.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Ben says. He runs to the slide and climbs up the ladder. Lily follows him. They sit on the top of the slide and look down. It is very high.
+
+"Are you ready, Ben?" Lily asks.
+
+"Yes, I am!" Ben says. He pushes himself and slides down. He goes very fast and laughs. He lands on the sand and stands up.
+
+"Come on, Lily!" he shouts. "It is fun!"
+
+Lily nods. She pushes herself and slides down. But she goes too fast and loses her balance. She slides off the side of the slide and falls on the grass. She hurts her knee and starts to cry.
+
+"Oh no, Lily!" Ben says. He runs to her and helps her up. "Are you okay?"
+
+Lily looks at her knee. It is red and has a scratch. She feels embarrassed. She thinks everyone is looking at her.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben," she says. "I was bad at sliding."
+
+"No, you were not, Lily," Ben says. He hugs her. "It was an accident. It can happen to anyone. You are brave and strong."
+
+Lily smiles. She hugs him back. "Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend."
+
+They walk to the bench and sit down. Ben gives Lily a band-aid and puts it on her knee. Lily feels better. They look at the slide and laugh.
+
+"Maybe we can try it again another day," Lily says.
+
+"Maybe," Ben says. "But only if you want to."
+
+They hold hands and go to play with the swings. They are happy.
+Tom was a brave boy. He had to go to the hospital for an operation. He was not scared, but he was cold. The hospital was big and white and had many people in it.
+
+The nurse gave Tom a blue gown and a hat. She said, "You have to wear these for the operation. They will keep you clean and safe." Tom put on the gown and the hat. He looked at himself in the mirror. He smiled. He looked like a doctor.
+
+The nurse took Tom to a room with a big bed and a lot of machines. She said, "This is where you will have the operation. The doctor will come soon and give you some medicine. The medicine will make you sleep and not feel any pain." Tom nodded. He was not scared, but he was cold.
+
+The doctor came in. He had a mask and gloves on. He said, "Hello, Tom. I am here to help you. You are a brave boy. I will do the operation and make you better." He gave Tom a hug and a sticker. He said, "This is for being so brave. Do you like it?" Tom said, "Yes, thank you. I like it." He showed the sticker to the nurse. It was a dinosaur.
+
+The doctor gave Tom some medicine in a tube. He said, "This will make you sleepy. You will have a nice dream and when you wake up, the operation will be over." Tom felt sleepy. He closed his eyes. He dreamed of dinosaurs and doctors.
+
+When Tom woke up, he was in another room. He saw his mom and dad. They were smiling. They said, "Tom, you did great. The operation was a success. You are a brave boy. We are so proud of you."

+Tom and Mia liked to play in the park. They had a big box that they used as a car, a boat, or a spaceship. One day, they saw a new animal in the park. It was big and orange, with black stripes. It looked like a tiger.
+
+"Wow, look at that tiger!" Tom said. "Do you think it is friendly?"
+
+"I don't know," Mia said. "Maybe we should go and say hello."
+
+They got out of their box and walked towards the tiger. The tiger saw them and made a loud roar. Tom and Mia stopped and felt scared.
+
+"Maybe it is not friendly," Tom said. "Maybe it is hungry and wants to eat us."
+
+"No, it is harmless," a voice said. "It is just playing with you."
+
+Tom and Mia looked around and saw a man. He was wearing a hat and a coat. He had a leash in his hand. The leash was attached to the tiger's collar.
+
+"Who are you?" Mia asked.
+
+"I am Sam, the zookeeper," the man said. "This is Leo, the tiger. He is not a real tiger, he is a costume tiger. He is a big cat who likes to dress up and pretend to be a tiger. He is very gentle and loves children."
+
+"Really?" Tom asked.
+
+"Yes, really," Sam said. "Do you want to pet him?"
+
+Tom and Mia nodded. They went closer to Leo and touched his fur. It was soft and warm. Leo licked their faces and purred. Tom and Mia laughed.
+
+"He is so nice," Mia said.
+

+
+One day, Sara and Fluffy are playing in the living room. Fluffy sees a shiny ball on the table. Fluffy jumps on the table and tries to catch the ball. But the ball is not a toy. It is a glass ball that Mom put there for decoration.

+
+"Fluffy, you are a bad kitten!" Sara yells. "You broke Mom's ball! You are in trouble!"
+
+Fluffy is scared too. She meows and runs away. She hides under the sofa.
+
+Sara tries to remove the glass from the floor. She picks up the big pieces and puts them in a bin. But there are many small pieces that she cannot see. She cuts her finger on a sharp piece. She cries and runs to Mom.
+
+Mom sees Sara's finger and the broken glass. She hugs Sara and puts a band-aid on her finger. She tells Sara to be careful with glass. She says she is not mad at Sara, but she is sad about the ball.
+

+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a big ball of gray string in their room. They wondered what they could do with it.
+
+"Let's make a necklace with the string," said Lily. She took some scissors and cut a piece of string. She tried to tie a knot, but it was too hard. The string slipped from her fingers and fell on the floor.
+
+"Let me try," said Ben. He took another piece of string and cut it. He also tried to tie a knot, but he was too clumsy. The string tangled up and made a mess.
+
+They both felt frustrated and sad. They wanted to make a necklace, but they couldn't.
+
+"Maybe we should ask Mom for help," said Lily.
+
+"Or maybe we should practice more," said Ben.
+
+They decided to practice more. They took some more string and tried to tie different knots. They watched some videos on Mom's phone to learn how to do it. They asked each other for tips and encouragement.
+
+After a while, they got better at tying knots. They were able to make a necklace with the string. They were very proud of their work. They showed it to Mom and Dad, who praised them for their effort and creativity.
+
+They learned that if they want to improve at something, they have to practice and not give up. They also learned that they can help each other and have fun together. They wore their necklace and played with their toys happily.
+Lily liked to play with her spoon. She used it to make noise on the table, to dig in the dirt, and to pretend it was a rocket. One day, she found a big, thick book in her mom's room. She wanted to see what was inside, so she took her spoon and tried to open the book.
+
+"Stop, Lily!" her mom said. "That's not a toy. That's a very old and special book. You can't use your spoon on it. You might break it or tear it."
+
+Lily did not listen. She wanted to see the pictures and the words in the book. She used her spoon to pry open the cover, but it was too hard. She pushed harder and harder, until she heard a loud crack.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily said. "What did I do?"
+
+She looked at the book and saw that she had broken the spine. The pages were loose and falling out. She also looked at her spoon and saw that it was bent and twisted. She had ruined her spoon and her mom's book.
+
+She started to cry. She was scared and sorry. She knew she had done something bad.
+
+Her mom heard her cry and came to see what was wrong. She saw the book and the spoon and understood what had happened. She was angry and sad, but she also loved Lily. She hugged her and said, "It's okay, Lily. I know you didn't mean to. But you have to be careful with things that are not yours. And you have to listen when I tell you something. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I'm sorry. I won't do it again."
+
+Her mom smiled and said, "I forgive you, Lily. But you have to help me fix the book and the spoon. And you have to find a new toy to play with. How about this?" She gave Lily a stuffed bear that was soft and cuddly.
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, mom. I like the bear. Can I name him Spoon?"
+
+Her mom laughed and said, "Sure, Lily. You can name him Spoon. But don't use him to open books, okay?"
+
+Lily agreed and hugged the bear. She learned her lesson and never used her spoon to open books again. She and Spoon became good friends and had many adventures together.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. One day, they find a big map under their bed. The map has many colors and pictures.
+
+"Look, Ben, a map!" Lily says. "Where does it go?"
+
+"I don't know, Lily. Maybe it is a treasure map. Let's follow it and see." Ben says.
+
+They crawl on the floor and look at the map. The map shows them where to go. They crawl under the table, behind the chair, and around the bookcase. They see many things on the way. They see a ball, a hat, a doll, and a car.
+
+"Wow, this is fun!" Lily says. "But where is the treasure?"
+
+"Maybe it is in the closet. The map says to go there." Ben says.
+
+They crawl to the closet and open the door. They see a big box with a bow. They open the box and find a soft blanket and two pillows.
+
+"Look, Lily, the treasure!" Ben says. "It is a blanket and pillows. We can make a fort with them."
+
+"Yay, Ben, you are right. This is the best treasure ever. We can cuddle and read stories with them." Lily says.
+
+They take the blanket and pillows and make a fort on the floor. They crawl inside and hug each other. They are happy and cozy. They thank the map for the treasure. They say good night and fall asleep.

+
+But then, a big dog came running. He saw the snowman and thought it was a toy. He jumped on it and bit the hat and the scarf. He knocked down the snowman and made a big mess. Anna and Ben were very sad.
+
+"Bad dog! Go away!" Anna shouted. She threw a snowball at the dog. The dog barked and ran away.
+
+Anna and Ben looked at their snowman. He was broken and ugly. They felt cold and wet. They started to shiver.
+
+"Let's go home," Ben said. "Mom will make us warm spaghetti. We can make another snowman tomorrow."
+
+They walked home, holding hands. On the way, they saw the dog again. He was sitting on the sidewalk, looking sad. He had the hat and the scarf in his mouth. He wagged his tail and dropped them.
+
+"I think he is sorry," Anna said. "Maybe he was just hungry and lonely."
+
+She picked up the hat and the scarf. She walked to the dog and petted him. The dog licked her face.
+
+"Can we keep him?" Anna asked Ben.
+
+Ben smiled. He liked the dog too.
+
+"Maybe," he said. "But first, let's ask Mom. And let's give him some spaghetti. He must be cold and hungry too."
+Tom and Lily were playing with their blocks in the living room. They liked to build towers and castles and bridges. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes.

+
+"Max, stop barking!" Tom said. "We want to see the truck!"
+
+But Max did not stop. He thought Tom and Lily were in danger. He followed them to the door and tried to block their way. He pushed them with his nose and his paws. He did not want them to go outside.
+
+"Max, no!" Lily said. "You are disturbing us! We want to go outside!"
+
+But Max did not listen. He was too worried. He kept pushing them. He pushed Lily so hard that she fell down. She hurt her knee and started to cry.
+
+Tom saw Lily crying and got angry. He shouted at Max. "Bad dog! You hurt Lily! Go away!"
+
+Max felt sad and confused. He did not mean to hurt Lily. He only wanted to protect them. He did not understand why they were mad at him. He hung his head and walked away. He went back to the rug and lay down. He wished they would forgive him and play with him. He was a loyal dog and loved Tom and Lily very much.

+Lily took a sip of the tea and made a face. It was too sweet. She did not like it. She said, "Tom, this tea is too sweet. How much sugar did you put in it?"
+
+Tom looked at the teaspoon and said, "I put one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten spoons of sugar in each cup. That is how I like my tea."
+
+Lily was shocked. She said, "Tom, that is too much sugar. You only need one or two spoons of sugar in your tea. Too much sugar is bad for you. It can make you sick and give you a tummy ache."
+
+Tom felt troubled. He did not know that too much sugar was bad for him. He liked sugar. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I did not mean to make you unhappy. I wanted to make you a nice tea. Can we still be friends?"
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Of course we can still be friends, Tom. You are a good host. But next time, please use less sugar in your tea. And maybe we can have some cookies or fruit with our tea. That would be yummy."

+
+"Maybe it is a treasure!" Tim said.
+

+
+"It is a mole!" Tim said.
+
+"A mole?" Kim asked.
+

+Tom was sad. He saw that Lily tricked him. He wanted his mug back. He said, "That's not fair. You are a bad lion. Give me my mug."
+
+Lily did not listen. She drank from the mug and made a loud slurp. She said, "No, this is my mug. It is yummy. You can't have it."
+
+Tom was very angry. He ran to Lily and tried to take the mug from her. They both pulled and pushed. The mug was too big for them. It slipped from their hands and fell to the floor. It broke into many pieces. They heard a loud crash.
+
+Mom came into the kitchen. She saw the broken mug and the mess. She saw Lily and Tom with sad faces. She was not happy. She said, "What happened here? Why did you break the mug? Why did you act so crazy?"
+
+Lily and Tom felt sorry. They said, "We are sorry, Mom. We were playing a game. We wanted the mug. We did not mean to break it."
+
+Mom sighed. She said, "I know you were playing, but you have to be careful. The mug was a gift from Grandma. She will be sad too. You have to share and be nice to each other. Now, help me clean up and say sorry to Grandma."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They helped Mom clean up the broken mug. They said sorry to Grandma on the phone. They learned their lesson. They did not act crazy again. They shared and played nicely. They had fun with other toys. They were happy.
+Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys in their room. One day, they find a big book with many images on the shelf. They open the book and gaze at the images. They see animals, cars, flowers, and stars.
+
+"Look, Ben, a lion!" Sara says, pointing at an image of a yellow and brown animal.
+
+"Wow, it is big and scary!" Ben says, looking at the image of the lion.
+
+They turn the page and see another image. It is a red car with four wheels and a shiny door.
+
+"I want to drive the car!" Ben says, reaching for the image.
+
+"No, I want to drive the car!" Sara says, pulling the book away from Ben.
+
+They start to fight over the book. They tug and pull and shout. The book rips in half. They both stop and look at the torn book. They feel sad and sorry.
+
+"Mama, mama!" they cry, running to their mother.
+
+"What happened, my loves?" their mother asks, seeing the ripped book.
+
+"We were looking at the images and we wanted the same car and we fought and we ripped the book!" Sara and Ben say, feeling anxious.
+
+"Oh, my loves, I'm sorry you ripped the book. But you know, fighting is not nice. You have to share and take turns. Can you say sorry to each other?" their mother says, hugging them.
+
+Sara and Ben look at each other. They feel ashamed and sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sara. I should have let you drive the car first." Ben says.
+
+"I'm sorry, Ben. I should have shared the book with you." Sara says.
+
+They hug each other and say sorry. Their mother smiles and kisses them.
+
+"It's okay, my loves. I'm glad you said sorry. You are good twins. Now, let's see if we can fix the book. Maybe we can tape it together. And then we can look at the images together and learn about the animals, the cars, the flowers, and the stars." their mother says, taking the book and the tape.
+
+Sara and Ben nod and smile. They follow their mother to the table. They help her tape the book. They look at the images together. They learn new words and have fun. They are happy twins.
+Tom and Mia like to play in the park. They have a big ball and a small kite. They run and laugh and have fun.
+
+One day, they see a big tiger in the park. The tiger is orange and black and has bright eyes. Tom and Mia are scared. They hide behind a tree and watch the tiger.
+
+The tiger is not mean. He is friendly. He sees the ball and the kite and wants to play. He picks up the ball with his mouth and throws it in the air. He chases the kite and tries to catch it with his paws.
+
+Tom and Mia see that the tiger is not mean. They want to play with him too. They come out from behind the tree and call the tiger.
+
+"Hey, tiger, come here!" Tom says.
+
+"Let's be friends!" Mia says.
+
+The tiger hears them and comes to them. He licks their faces and lets them pet him. He gives them the ball and the kite and plays with them.
+
+Tom and Mia are happy. They have a new friend. They follow the tiger around the park and have more fun. They are not scared of the tiger anymore. They love the tiger.
+Sam loves aeroplanes. He likes to watch them fly in the sky and make loud noises. He has a toy aeroplane that he plays with every day. He pretends that he is the pilot and that he can go anywhere he wants.
+
+One day, Sam's mum tells him that they are going to visit his grandma. She lives very far away, in another country. Sam is happy, but he is also sad. He does not want to leave his toy aeroplane behind. He asks his mum if he can take it with him.
+
+"Sorry, Sam, but we can't take your toy aeroplane on the big aeroplane that we are going to fly on. It is too big and it might get lost or broken. But don't worry, we can send it to grandma's house. She will keep it safe for you until we get there."
+
+Sam thinks about this. He does not like the idea of sending his toy aeroplane away. He is afraid that he will miss it too much. He says to his mum, "But mum, how will it get to grandma's house? Will it fly by itself?"
+
+Mum smiles and hugs Sam. She says, "No, Sam, it won't fly by itself. We will put it in a big box and write grandma's name and address on it. Then we will give it to a nice man who works at the post office. He will put it on a truck that will take it to another big aeroplane. That aeroplane will fly to grandma's country and land at the airport. Then another truck will take it to grandma's house. She will open the box and see your toy aeroplane. She will be very happy and proud of you for sharing it with her."
+
+Sam listens to his mum and tries to imagine his toy aeroplane's journey. He thinks it sounds very exciting and adventurous. He says, "OK, mum, I will send my toy aeroplane to grandma. But can you please put a thick blanket around it, so it won't get cold or hurt?"
+
+Mum nods and says, "Of course, Sam, I will put a thick blanket around it and also a note that says how much you love it and miss it. And you know what? When we get to grandma's house, you can play with it again and tell it all about your trip. How does that sound?"
+
+Sam smiles and says, "That sounds good, mum. I love you and I love my toy aeroplane. And I love grandma too. Can we go now?"
+
+Mum says, "Yes, Sam, we can go now. Let's pack your bag and get ready. We have a big adventure ahead of us."
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toy cars in the garden. They liked to make them zoom and crash and beep. Tom had a red car and Lily had a blue car. They pretended they were racing on a big road.
+
+"Beep beep, I'm faster than you!" Tom said to Lily.
+
+"No, you're not, I'm faster than you!" Lily said to Tom.
+
+They both pushed their cars as hard as they could, but they did not look where they were going. They did not see the big rock in front of them. Their cars hit the rock and flipped over.
+
+"Oh no, our cars are broken!" Tom and Lily cried.
+
+They ran to their cars and tried to fix them. Tom's car had a dent and Lily's car had a scratch. They were very sad.
+
+"Maybe we can make them work again," Tom said. He turned his car over and tried to make it go. But it did not go. It only made a loud noise.
+
+"Vroom vroom, fire fire!" Tom shouted. He saw smoke coming out of his car. He was scared.
+
+"Tom, your car is on fire!" Lily said. She was scared too.
+
+They dropped their cars and ran to the house. They looked for their mom.
+
+"Mom, mom, help us!" Tom and Lily yelled.
+
+Mom heard them and came out. She saw the smoke and the fire. She was worried.
+
+"What happened, Tom and Lily?" Mom asked.
+
+"We were playing with our cars and they hit a rock and they broke and they caught fire!" Tom and Lily said.
+
+Mom took a bucket of water and ran to the garden. She threw the water on the fire and put it out. She picked up the cars and looked at them.
+
+"I'm sorry, Tom and Lily, but your cars are ruined. You can't play with them anymore," Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily were very sorry. They hugged Mom and said they were sorry too.
+
+"Mom, can we have new cars?" Tom asked.
+
+"Maybe, but not today. You have to be more careful when you play. You have to look where you are going and not be so impatient. And you have to share and be nice to each other," Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They learned their lesson. They said they would be more careful and patient and nice.
+
+"Can we play with something else?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, you can play with something else. How about your blocks? You can build something together," Mom said.
+
+Tom and Lily liked their blocks. They went to their room and got their blocks. They decided to build a big house for their cars. They hoped their cars would be happy there. They played nicely and had fun.
+Tom and Anna were playing in the park. They liked to swing on the swings and slide on the slide. They saw a big dog with a chain around its neck. The dog was barking and pulling on the chain. Tom and Anna were scared of the dog.
+
+"Let's go away from the dog," Tom said to Anna. "It is loud and mean."
+
+"OK," Anna said. "But where can we go?"
+
+They looked around and saw a small house. The house had a door and a window. It looked like a good place to hide.
+
+"Let's go to the house," Tom said. "Maybe the dog will not see us there."
+
+They ran to the house and opened the door. They went inside and closed the door. They hoped the dog would not find them.
+
+The house was dark and quiet. They could not see anything. They heard a noise. It sounded like a voice.
+
+"Who is there?" the voice said.
+
+Tom and Anna were scared. They did not know who was in the house. They did not answer.
+
+"Who is there?" the voice said again. "Come out, come out, wherever you are."
+
+Tom and Anna held each other. They hoped the voice would go away. They hoped the dog would not come. They hoped someone would help them.
+Anna loved to play with her fairy doll. She named her fairy doll Lily and gave her a pink dress and a shiny crown. Lily was Anna's best friend and they did everything together.
+
+One day, Anna's mom told her they had to pack their things and move to a new house. Anna was sad and scared. She did not want to leave her old house and her friends. She did not know what the new house would look like or if she would make new friends.
+
+"Mom, do I have to pack Lily too?" Anna asked, holding her fairy doll tightly.
+
+"Yes, sweetie, you have to pack Lily. But don't worry, she will be safe in your backpack and you can play with her again when we get to the new house," mom said, smiling.
+
+"But what if Lily gets lonely or scared in the backpack?" Anna said, frowning.
+
+"Lily is a brave fairy, Anna. She is not afraid of anything. She will be happy to go on an adventure with you and see new places. And she will always be with you, no matter where you go," mom said, hugging Anna.
+
+Anna thought about what mom said. She looked at Lily and saw her smiling too. Maybe mom was right. Maybe Lily was a brave fairy and they could have fun in the new house. Anna decided to be brave too and pack Lily in her backpack.
+
+"Okay, mom, I will pack Lily. But can I keep her close to me in the car?" Anna asked.
+
+"Of course, sweetie, you can keep her close to you in the car. And you can talk to her and sing to her and tell her stories. She will love that," mom said, helping Anna pack her backpack.
+
+Anna felt better and smiled. She kissed Lily and put her in her backpack. She was ready to go to the new house with her mom and her fairy doll. She hoped they would find new friends and have new adventures there. She was a brave girl, just like Lily.
+Lila and Tom are friends. They like to play with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. They try to make a big tower with the blocks.
+
+Lila sees a long line of blocks on the floor. She says, "Tom, look! I see a line of blocks. Let's use them for our tower."
+
+Tom says, "OK, Lila. But we have to be careful. Some blocks do not fit with other blocks. They are too big or too small or too round."
+
+Lila and Tom pick up the blocks from the line. They try to fit them on top of their tower. They have to balance them well. They do not want their tower to fall.
+
+They have fun with the blocks. They make a very high tower. They are proud of their work. They say, "Wow, we did it! Our tower is the best!"
+Sara and her mom were going to visit grandma. Mom said they had to pack some things in a big bag. Sara wanted to help, so she ran to her room and looked for her toys. She saw her teddy bear, her ball, her book and her crayons. She put them all in the bag, but it was too heavy. She tried to drag it to the door, but it was too hard.
+
+"Mom, I need help!" Sara called.
+
+Mom came and saw the bag. She smiled and said, "Wow, Sara, you packed a lot of things. But we don't need all of them. We can leave some here and take some with us. How about we take your teddy bear and your book, and leave your ball and your crayons?"
+
+Sara thought for a moment. She liked her ball and her crayons, but she loved her teddy bear and her book. She nodded and said, "Okay, mom. I will take teddy and book. They are my favorites."
+
+Mom helped Sara take out the ball and the crayons and put them back in her room. Then they zipped the bag and carried it to the car. Sara looked at the sun and saw her shadow on the ground. She waved at it and said, "Bye, shadow. See you later."
+
+Mom and Sara got in the car and drove to grandma's house. It was a long drive, but Sara enjoyed looking at the trees, the birds, the cows and the clouds. She felt peaceful and happy. She hugged her teddy bear and read her book. She couldn't wait to see grandma and give her a big hug. She knew grandma would have cookies and stories for her. She smiled and said, "I love you, mom. I love you, teddy. I love you, book. I love you, grandma."
+One day, Lily had a cold. She sneezed and coughed a lot. Her nose was runny and her throat was sore. Her mom said she had to go to the doctor.
+
+Lily did not like the doctor. She was scared of the needles and the stethoscope. She did not want to open her mouth or let the doctor touch her. She cried and hid behind her mom.
+
+The doctor was nice and smiled. He said, "Don't be afraid, Lily. I just want to help you feel better. I won't hurt you. Can you be brave for me?"
+
+Lily shook her head. She did not want to be brave. She wanted to go home. She said, "No, no, no!"
+
+The doctor said, "How about this? If you let me check your ears and your chest, I will give you a sticker and a lollipop. Do you like stickers and lollipops?"
+
+Lily liked stickers and lollipops. She thought for a moment. She said, "OK, but only one needle."
+
+The doctor said, "Deal. No more than one needle. And you can choose the color of the sticker and the flavor of the lollipop."
+
+Lily nodded. She let the doctor check her ears and her chest. He said she had a mild cold and gave her some medicine. He also gave her a pink sticker and a cherry lollipop. He said, "You did very well, Lily. You are a brave girl. I'm proud of you."
+
+Lily smiled. She felt a little better. She said, "Thank you, doctor. I'm sorry I cried."
+
+The doctor said, "That's OK, Lily. Everyone cries sometimes. It's nothing to be embarrassed about. You are a strong and smart girl. I hope you get well soon."
+
+Lily hugged her mom and said, "Can we go home now?"
+
+Her mom said, "Yes, we can. Let's go home and rest. I love you, Lily."
+
+Lily said, "I love you too, mom."
+Tim and Kim are playing with their new toy. It is a laser. It can make red light on the wall. They like to make shapes and letters with the light. They have fun.
+
+But then, Tim hears his mom call him. She says it is time for lunch. Tim runs to the kitchen. He forgets to take the laser with him. He leaves it on the floor.
+
+Kim sees the laser. She wants to play with it too. She picks it up and points it at the wall. She makes a big circle with the light. She smiles.
+
+But then, she hears a bark. It is her dog, Rex. Rex is brown and big. He likes to chase things. He sees the red light on the wall. He thinks it is a ball. He runs to the wall and jumps. He hits his head. He yelps.
+
+Kim is scared. She drops the laser. It breaks. She cries. She says, "I'm sorry, Rex. I'm sorry, Tim. I broke your toy."
+
+Tim hears Kim cry. He comes back to the room. He sees the broken laser and the sad dog. He is angry. He says, "Kim, why did you touch my laser? You broke it. It was mine."
+
+Kim says, "I'm sorry, Tim. I wanted to play with it. I didn't mean to break it. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+Tim looks at Kim. He sees her tears. He feels sorry for her. He says, "It's okay, Kim. I'm not mad at you. It was just a toy. You are my sister. I love you."
+
+Kim hugs Tim. She says, "I love you too, Tim. Thank you for being nice to me."
+
+Rex licks Tim and Kim. He says, "Woof, woof. I love you too. Can we have lunch now?"
+Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play together in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They also liked to pretend they were grown-ups.
+
+One day, they decided to play marry. Lily wore a white dress and a flower crown. Tom wore a suit and a tie. They held hands and walked to a big tree.
+
+"Tom, do you want to marry me?" Lily asked.
+
+"Yes, Lily, I want to marry you. You are cute and nice and fun," Tom said.
+
+They smiled and kissed on the cheek. Then they heard a sound. It was Lily's mom. She came to pick her up.
+
+"Lily, it's time to go home. Say bye to Tom," she said.
+
+"Bye, Tom. I had fun playing with you. See you tomorrow," Lily said.
+
+"Bye, Lily. I had fun too. You are my wife now," Tom said.
+
+They hugged and waved. Then Lily went home with her mom. They were happy. They were married.
+Lila was a stubborn girl who liked to do things her way. She did not like to listen to her mom or dad or teacher. She wanted to go on adventures and see new things.
+
+One day, she decided to go to the village by herself. She put on her shoes and coat and took her backpack. She did not tell anyone where she was going. She walked along the road until she saw a sign that said "Village". She turned right and followed the sign.
+
+The village was big and busy. There were many people and cars and shops and noises. Lila felt excited and curious. She wanted to see everything. She walked around and looked at the windows and the doors and the signs. She saw a toy store, a bakery, a library, and a park. She wanted to go inside and play and eat and read and swing.
+
+But she did not know that the village was not safe for a little girl alone. There were some bad people who liked to take things that were not theirs. They saw Lila and thought she had something valuable in her backpack. They followed her and waited for a chance to grab her.
+
+Lila did not notice them. She was too busy having fun. She went to the park and saw a big slide. She ran to it and climbed up the ladder. She was about to slide down when she heard a voice behind her.
+
+"Hey, little girl, what do you have in your backpack?" the voice said. It was one of the bad people. He had a mean face and a dirty coat. He reached for her backpack.
+
+Lila was scared. She did not know what to do. She held on to her backpack and screamed.
+
+"Help! Help! Someone help me!" she cried.
+
+Luckily, a policeman was nearby. He heard her scream and saw what was happening. He ran to the park and caught the bad person. He took him away and called Lila's mom and dad.
+
+Lila was very happy to see her mom and dad. They hugged her and kissed her and scolded her. They told her she was very naughty and foolish to go to the village by herself. They told her she could have been hurt or lost or worse. They told her she had to listen to them and obey them and stay safe.
+
+Lila felt sorry and ashamed. She realized she had been very stubborn and wrong. She apologized to her mom and dad and promised to never do it again. She learned her lesson and became a good girl. She still liked to go on adventures and see new things, but only with her mom and dad or teacher or friends. She never went to the village by herself again.
+Lily and Ben like to play pretend. They have a big box that they use as a kitchen. They have pots and pans and spoons and plates. They also have a drawer where they keep their pretend food. They like to serve each other yummy meals.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben decided to make a picnic. They opened the drawer and took out some bread and cheese and apples and juice. They put them in a basket and carried it to the living room. They spread a blanket on the floor and sat down.
+
+"Here you go, Ben," Lily said, as she gave him a slice of bread and cheese. "This is your sandwich. It is very tasty."
+
+"Thank you, Lily," Ben said, as he took a bite. "You are a good cook. Do you want some juice?"
+
+"Yes, please," Lily said, as she handed him a cup. "This is your juice. It is very sweet."
+
+"Thank you, Lily," Ben said, as he poured some juice for her and himself. "You are a good friend. Do you want some apple?"
+
+"Yes, please," Lily said, as she took a piece of apple from the basket. "This is your apple. It is very crunchy."
+
+"Thank you, Lily," Ben said, as he took another piece. "You are a very nice sister. I love you."
+
+"I love you too, Ben," Lily said, as they hugged. "This is a very happy picnic."
+Tim and Sue went to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and giraffes. But their favorite was the elephant. The elephant was big and gray, and had a long nose and big ears.
+
+The elephant was also filthy. He had mud and dirt all over his skin. He liked to roll in the mud and splash in the water. Tim and Sue thought he looked funny and silly.
+
+"Look, Mom, the elephant is rocking!" Tim said, pointing at the elephant. The elephant was swinging his head and trunk from side to side, making a loud noise.
+
+"He is rocking because he is happy," Mom said. "He likes to play with his friends and make music with his trunk."
+
+"Can we rock with him, Mom?" Sue asked. "We like to play and make music, too."
+
+Mom smiled and nodded. She took Tim and Sue by the hand and led them to a bench near the elephant. They sat down and started to rock back and forth, singing a song.
+
+The elephant heard them and looked at them. He smiled and rocked with them, too. He joined their song with his trunk, making a low sound.
+
+Tim and Sue laughed and clapped. They had fun rocking with the elephant. They felt happy, too.
+Sara and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They saw a big jar of sugar on the shelf. They wanted to taste it. They climbed on a chair and reached for the jar. But the jar was too heavy and it fell on the floor. The sugar spilled everywhere.
+
+"Oh no!" Sara said. "Mom will be angry!"
+
+"Let's hide it!" Ben said. He kicked the sugar under the table. But some of the sugar stuck to his shoe. He tried to shake it off.
+
+Sara saw a spoon on the counter. She had an idea. She scooped some sugar with the spoon and put it in her mouth. She thought it would be sweet and yummy. But it was not. It was disgusting!
+
+"Yuck!" Sara said. She spit out the sugar. "This is not good sugar! This is bad sugar!"
+
+Ben heard Sara and looked at her. He saw her face was funny. He laughed. He thought she was silly.
+
+"Ha ha!" Ben said. "You ate bad sugar! You are silly!"
+
+Sara was not happy. She was mad. She threw the spoon at Ben. The spoon hit his head. He cried.
+
+"Ow!" Ben said. "That hurt! You are mean!"
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the kitchen. She saw the mess and the kids. She was not happy. She was very angry.
+
+"What did you do?" Mom said. "Look at this mess! And why are you crying? And why do you have sugar on your shoe?"
+
+Sara and Ben were scared. They did not know what to say. They were in trouble. They wished they did not touch the sugar. They learned their lesson.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play in the sand pit in the park. They have a bucket and a spade each. They make sand castles and dig holes.
+
+One day, Tim sees a big shiny rock in the sand. He wants it for himself. He picks it up and puts it in his bucket. He does not show Sam.
+
+Sam sees Tim hiding something in his bucket. He asks, "What do you have, Tim? Can I see?"
+
+Tim says, "No, it is mine. Go away. You have your own bucket."
+
+Sam feels sad and angry. He says, "That is not fair, Tim. You are selfish. You should share. We are brothers."
+
+Tim does not listen. He holds his bucket tight. He thinks the rock is very pretty and he does not want to give it to Sam.
+
+Sam has an idea. He waits until Tim is not looking. He takes his spade and hits Tim's bucket. The bucket falls over and the rock rolls out. Sam grabs the rock and runs away.
+
+Tim sees what Sam did. He cries and shouts, "Give it back, Sam. That is my rock. You are mean."
+
+Sam does not stop. He runs to the other side of the pit. He says, "No, it is mine now. You did not share. You are selfish."
+
+Tim and Sam are both unhappy. They do not play together anymore. They sit alone in the sand pit with their buckets and spades. They look at the rock and wish they had it. They do not have fun.
+Lisa loved flowers. She liked to pick them from the garden and put them in a vase. She wanted to make her mommy happy. She carried the vase to the living room, where mommy was sitting on the couch.
+
+"Look, mommy, I made this for you!" Lisa said, holding the vase with both hands.
+
+Mommy smiled and hugged Lisa. "Thank you, sweetie, they are beautiful! You are so compassionate and thoughtful. Where did you get the flowers?"
+
+Lisa pointed to the window. "From the garden. I asked the flowers if they wanted to come with me. They said yes. They like you, too."
+
+Mommy looked out the window and saw a big hole in the flower bed. She frowned a little, but then she kissed Lisa on the cheek. "You are very kind to the flowers, but you know what? They also like to stay in the ground, where they can grow and have water and sun. Next time, why don't we ask daddy to help us cut some flowers, so we don't hurt the others?"
+
+Lisa nodded. She didn't want to hurt the flowers. She wanted them to be happy, like mommy. She put the vase on the table and sat next to mommy on the couch. They cuddled and looked at the flowers together. Lisa felt warm and cozy. She loved mommy, and mommy loved her. And the flowers, too.

+
+One day, Tom is very excited because he is going to perform in a show at his school. He is going to be a lion and roar very loud. He practices his roar at home and his baby sister claps her hands. He puts on his lion costume and his mom helps him with his mane. He looks in the mirror and smiles. He is a very good lion.
+
+But when he gets to school, he sees that there are many other kids who are going to perform too. There are kids who are going to be elephants and monkeys and birds and flowers. There are kids who are going to play instruments and recite poems and do magic tricks. Tom feels a little scared. He wonders if his roar is loud enough. He wonders if his costume is nice enough. He wonders if anyone will like his performance.
+
+He sits on a bench and waits for his turn. He feels his face get hot and his hands get sweaty. He feels his heart beat fast and his stomach hurt. He looks pale and sad. His teacher sees him and comes over.
+
+"Tom, are you okay?" she asks.
+
+Tom shakes his head. He does not want to talk.
+
+"Tom, I know you are nervous, but you don't have to be. You are a wonderful lion and you have worked very hard. You have a great roar and a great costume and a great smile. You are going to make everyone happy with your performance. You are going to have fun. Do you believe me?" she says.
+
+Tom looks at his teacher. He sees that she is smiling and kind. He nods his head. He feels a little better.
+
+"Good. Now, come on, it's your time to shine. Let's go and show them what a great lion you are. Are you ready?" she says.
+
+Tom stands up and takes a deep breath. He feels his courage grow. He nods his head again. He is ready.
+
+He follows his teacher to the stage. He sees his mom and dad and his baby sister in the audience. He sees them waving and cheering. He sees his friends and his classmates and his teacher. He sees them smiling and clapping. He feels happy and proud.
+
+He steps on the stage and roars very loud. He roars like a real lion. He roars like the best lion ever. He hears everyone laugh and cheer. He sees everyone enjoy his performance. He enjoys it too.
+
+He performs like a star. He performs like a lion. He performs like Tom.
+Tim and Sam like to ride their bikes. They want to improve their speed and be fast like the wind. They ride on the path near their house, where there are no cars or dogs.
+
+One day, they see a big hill. Tim says, "Let's go up the hill and then down. It will be fun and we will be very fast." Sam says, "OK, but we have to be careful and safe. The hill is steep and there are rocks and holes."
+
+They push their bikes up the hill. It is hard and they are tired. But they are happy when they reach the top. They look down and see the path. Tim says, "Are you ready, Sam?" Sam says, "Yes, Tim. Let's go!"
+
+They hop on their bikes and start to go down the hill. They feel the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They go faster and faster. They are having fun and improving their speed.
+
+But then, Tim sees a big rock on the path. He tries to avoid it, but he can't. He hits the rock and falls off his bike. He scrapes his knee and elbow and cries. Sam sees Tim and stops his bike. He runs to Tim and says, "Are you OK, Tim? I'm sorry you fell. Do you need a hug?"
+
+Tim says, "I'm OK, Sam. It hurts, but it will get better. Thank you for being my friend. You are very kind and safe." Sam says, "You're welcome, Tim. You are very brave and fast. Let's go home and tell Mom. She will clean your wounds and give you a band-aid and a cookie."
+
+They walk their bikes home, holding hands. They are still friends and they still like to ride their bikes. But they decide to avoid the big hill and the big rock. They say, "We can improve our speed on the flat path. It is more fun and safe."
+Lily and Ben are twins. They share a room and a big mattress. Sometimes they play games on the mattress, like jumping, rolling and making forts. But when it is night, they have to sleep and be quiet.
+
+One night, Lily hears a noise outside the window. She thinks it is a monster. She is scared and wakes up Ben. "Ben, Ben, listen! There is a monster outside!" she whispers.
+
+Ben rubs his eyes and listens. He hears a loud roar and a thump. He is scared too. He hugs Lily and says, "What do we do?"
+
+Lily thinks hard. She remembers what Mommy told them. "Mommy said, if we are scared, we can call her. She will come and help us. She is not afraid of monsters." She picks up the phone and dials Mommy's number.
+
+Mommy hears the phone ring and answers. She hears Lily's voice. "Mommy, Mommy, there is a monster outside our window! We are scared!"
+
+Mommy is serious. She knows there is no monster, but she wants to make Lily and Ben feel safe. She says, "Don't worry, my loves. I will be right there. Stay on the mattress and hold each other. I will chase the monster away."
+
+Mommy runs to their room and turns on the light. She sees Lily and Ben on the mattress, holding the phone and each other. She smiles and hugs them. She looks outside the window and sees a big truck. It is making the noise. She says, "Look, there is no monster. It is just a truck. It is taking away some trash. It will be gone soon. It is not scary, it is just loud."
+
+Lily and Ben look outside and see the truck. They feel silly and relieved. They say, "Thank you, Mommy. You are the best. We love you."
+
+Mommy says, "I love you too. Now, let's go back to sleep. It is late and you need to rest. Tomorrow, we can play more games on the mattress, okay?"

+Anna was sad. She had to go to the hospital. She had a big bump on her head. The doctor said she needed an operation. Anna did not like the hospital. It was cold and noisy and scary.
+
+"Mommy, I don't want an operation," Anna said. She hugged her teddy bear. "It will hurt."
+
+Mommy smiled and kissed her cheek. "Don't worry, sweetie. The operation will make you better. It is very important. The doctor is very nice. He will give you some medicine to make you sleep. You won't feel anything. And I will be with you the whole time."
+
+Anna looked at Mommy. She saw Mommy's eyes. They were kind and brave. Anna trusted Mommy. She nodded. "Okay, Mommy. I will be brave too."

+
+"Hello, Anna. I'm Dr. Lee. I'm going to help you with your bump. Are you ready?"

+
+They swing and swing, and try to beat each other. They have fun and forget the time.
+
+But then, they hear their mom call them. "Tom! Mia! It's time to go home! We have spaghetti for dinner!"
+
+Tom and Mia love spaghetti. It is their favorite food. They jump off the swing and run to their mom. They hug her and say thank you.
+
+They go home and wash their hands. They sit at the table and eat their spaghetti. They slurp and chew and smile. They tell their mom about their day.
+
+After dinner, they brush their teeth and put on their pajamas. They are tired and sleepy. They go to their bed and cuddle with their teddy bears.

+Lily likes to collect images. She has a big book with many pages. On each page, she sticks an image that she finds or makes. She has images of animals, flowers, cars, stars, and more. She loves to look at her book and show it to her friends.
+
+One day, she goes to the park with her mom. She sees a fancy lady with a fancy hat. The hat has many feathers and flowers on it. Lily thinks the hat is very pretty. She wants to have an image of the hat for her book.
+
+She runs to the lady and says, "Hello, lady. I like your hat. Can I have an image of your hat, please?"

+The lady smiles and says, "Hello, little girl. You have a nice book. What do you do with it?"
+
+Lily says, "I collect images. I stick them on my book. I have many images. But I don't have an image of your hat. Your hat is fancy. Can I have an image of your hat, please?"
+
+The lady says, "Sure, you can have an image of my hat. How do you get an image?"
+
+Lily says, "I have a camera. It is in my bag. I can take a picture of your hat with my camera. Then I can print it and stick it on my book. Can I take a picture of your hat, please?"

+Lila liked to splash in the shower. She had a unique shower with many colors and shapes. She could turn the water red, blue, green, or yellow. She could make the water come out like a star, a heart, a circle, or a square. She had fun playing with the water and making different patterns.
+
+One day, her mom came to the shower and said, "Lila, it's time to get out. You have been in the shower for a long time. You need to dry off and get dressed."
+
+"But mom, I want to splash more. I want to make more colors and shapes. The shower is so fun and unique. Please, can I stay a little longer?" Lila asked.
+
+"No, Lila, you have to get out now. You have used enough water and soap. You have to save some for later. And you have to do other things, like eat breakfast and brush your teeth and read a book. Come on, let me help you with the towel." Mom said.
+
+Lila was sad, but she knew mom was right. She turned off the water and got out of the shower. Mom wrapped her in a soft towel and dried her hair. Lila hugged mom and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. And I love the shower. Can I splash again tomorrow?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Yes, Lila, you can splash again tomorrow. But only for a little while. And only after you do your other things. Now, let's go and have some breakfast. I made your favorite, pancakes and bananas. How does that sound?"
+
+Lila smiled and said, "That sounds yummy, mom. Let's go." She followed mom to the kitchen, still thinking about the shower and the colors and shapes. She decided that the shower was her favorite thing in the house. It was so fun and unique. She couldn't wait to splash again tomorrow.
+Tom and Lily were having breakfast with their mom and dad. They liked to eat toast and eggs and sausages. Tom loved sausages very much. He always ate them first.
+
+"Can I have another sausage, please?" Tom asked his mom.
+
+"Sorry, Tom, there is only one sausage left. You can share it with Lily," his mom said.
+
+Tom did not want to share. He wanted the whole sausage for himself. He looked at Lily. She was busy eating her toast. She did not see the sausage.
+
+Tom had an idea. He quickly took the sausage from the plate and hid it under his napkin. He smiled. He thought he was very clever.
+
+But then, something happened. A charming cat jumped on the table. The cat smelled the sausage. The cat lifted the napkin with its paw. The cat grabbed the sausage with its mouth. The cat ran away with the sausage.
+
+Tom was shocked. He lost his sausage. He started to cry.
+
+"Lily, Lily, the cat took my sausage!" Tom shouted.
+
+Lily looked at Tom. She saw the empty plate. She saw the cat running away. She felt sorry for Tom.
+
+"It's okay, Tom. Don't cry. You can have some of my toast and eggs. They are yummy, too," Lily said.
+
+She gave Tom a hug. She gave him half of her toast and eggs. Tom stopped crying. He thanked Lily. He ate the toast and eggs. He felt better.
+
+Mom and dad smiled. They were proud of Lily. They were happy that Tom and Lily shared. They hoped that Tom learned a lesson. They hoped that the cat enjoyed the sausage.
+Sara and Tom were friends who liked to play in the garden. They had a big patch of dirt where they planted seeds and watered them every day. They hoped to grow flowers and fruits and share them with their families.
+
+One day, they saw a big rabbit hopping near their patch. The rabbit had long ears, a fluffy tail and a pink nose. It looked very cute, but it was also very hungry. It smelled the carrots that Sara and Tom had planted and decided to steal them.
+
+The rabbit dug up the carrots with its teeth and paws and ate them all. Sara and Tom heard the noise and ran to their patch. They were very sad and angry when they saw what the rabbit had done.
+
+"Hey, you bad rabbit! You stole our carrots! Go away!" Sara shouted.
+
+"Those are our carrots! We worked hard to grow them! Give them back!" Tom yelled.
+
+But the rabbit did not listen. It just smiled and hopped away with a full belly.
+
+Sara and Tom did not know what to do. They felt like crying. Then they saw their neighbor, Mr. Lee, walking by. Mr. Lee was an old man who had a big garden of his own. He was very wise and kind. He saw Sara and Tom and their ruined patch and asked them what happened.
+
+"A rabbit stole our carrots, Mr. Lee. It ate them all and left nothing for us. We are so sad," Sara said.
+
+"That's too bad, Sara. I'm sorry for your loss. Rabbits can be very sneaky and greedy sometimes. They don't care about other people's hard work," Mr. Lee said.
+
+"Is there anything we can do, Mr. Lee? We wanted to grow flowers and fruits and share them with our families. But now we have nothing," Tom said.
+
+"Well, Tom, there is something you can do. You can learn from this experience and try again. You can make your patch stronger and safer. You can put a fence around it or scare the rabbits away with a scarecrow or a bell. You can also plant different things that rabbits don't like, like onions or garlic or peppers. And you can always ask me for help. I have plenty of seeds and tools and tips to share with you," Mr. Lee said.
+
+"Really, Mr. Lee? You would help us?" Sara asked.
+
+"Of course, Sara. You are my friends and neighbors. And I like to see young people who love gardening. It's a good hobby and a good skill. It teaches you patience and responsibility and creativity. And it gives you joy and beauty and food. Come on, let's go to my garden and see what we can find," Mr. Lee said.
+
+Sara and Tom smiled and thanked Mr. Lee. They followed him to his garden, which was full of flowers and fruits and vegetables. They felt hopeful and excited. They decided to start over and make their patch better than ever. They learned from their mistake and did not give up. And they never saw the rabbit again.
+Sara and Tom were friends who liked to play with their toys. They had many different vehicles, like cars, trucks, buses and planes. They liked to make noises and pretend they were driving or flying.
+
+One day, they saw a big box in the garage. It had a picture of a very impressive vehicle on it. It was a robot that could turn into a car or a plane. Sara and Tom wanted to play with it.
+
+They asked their mom if they could open the box. She said yes, but they had to share and be careful. Sara and Tom were happy and ran to the box. They opened it and took out the robot. It was shiny and cool.
+
+They decided to take turns playing with it. Sara went first. She pressed a button and the robot turned into a car. She drove it around the floor and made vroom-vroom sounds. Tom watched and waited for his turn.
+
+Then, Tom said, "Can I play now?" Sara said, "OK, but be gentle." She pressed another button and the robot turned back into a robot. She gave it to Tom. Tom pressed another button and the robot turned into a plane. He flew it in the air and made zoom-zoom sounds. Sara watched and smiled.
+
+They played like this for a while, until they had an idea. They said, "Let's unite the robot!" They pressed another button and the robot split into two parts. One part was a car and the other part was a plane. They each took one part and said, "Now we have two vehicles!"
+
+They were very happy and played together with their two vehicles. They drove and flew and made noises. They said, "This is the best toy ever!" They hugged and thanked their mom for the gift. They were good friends who liked to share and have fun.
+Lily was a little girl who loved to visit her aunt. Her aunt had a big house with many toys and books and a nice garden. Lily liked to play with her aunt's cat, Fluffy, and help her bake cookies and cakes.
+
+One day, Lily and her aunt were making a chocolate cake for Lily's birthday. Lily helped her aunt stir the batter and pour it into the pan. Then they put the pan in the oven and waited for the cake to bake.
+
+While they were waiting, Lily saw a big bowl of whipped cream on the counter. She thought it looked yummy and wanted to taste it. She climbed on a chair and reached for the bowl. But she was too little and the bowl was too heavy. She tipped the bowl over and the whipped cream spilled all over the floor and the chair and Lily.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily cried. "I made a mess!"
+
+Her aunt heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw Lily covered in whipped cream and the floor and the chair too. She was not angry, but she was sad.
+
+"Oh, Lily, you spoiled the whipped cream!" she said. "Now we have no cream for the cake. And look at you, you are all sticky and dirty."
+
+Lily felt sorry and ashamed. She did not mean to spoil the whipped cream. She wanted to make her aunt happy, not sad.
+
+"I'm sorry, auntie," she said. "I just wanted to try the cream. It looked so good."
+
+Her aunt smiled and hugged her. She was not mad at Lily. She loved her very much.
+
+"It's okay, Lily," she said. "I know you did not mean to spoil the cream. But you have to be careful and ask before you touch things. And you have to clean up your mess. Come on, let's go to the bathroom and wash you up. Then we can decorate the cake with something else. Maybe some sprinkles and candies. How does that sound?"
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She was glad her aunt was not mad at her. She was still excited for her birthday cake. She hoped Fluffy did not lick the cream off the floor. She wanted to share some cake with him too. She loved her aunt and her cat and her cake. She was a happy little girl.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big flower with many colors. They ran to the flower and looked at it. They saw a butterfly on the flower. The butterfly was yellow and black. It was very nice.
+
+"Hello, butterfly!" Anna said. "You are so nice. Can we be your friends?"
+
+The butterfly moved its wings. It flew up and down. It came close to Anna and Ben. They smiled and reached out their hands. The butterfly landed on Anna's hand. It tickled her.
+
+"Thank you, butterfly!" Anna said. "You are very kind. You make me happy."
+
+The butterfly flew to Ben's hand. It tickled him too.
+
+"Thank you, butterfly!" Ben said. "You are very fun. You make me laugh."
+
+The butterfly flew back to the flower. It waved its wings. It said goodbye to Anna and Ben.
+
+"Goodbye, butterfly!" Anna and Ben said. "We hope to see you again. You are our friend."
+
+Anna and Ben hugged each other. They were happy. They had a new friend. They thanked the flower too. The flower was nice. It shared its butterfly with them.
+Tom and Lily were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big pipe in the grass. It was round and shiny and had a hole at one end.
+
+"Let's visit the pipe!" Tom said. "Maybe there is something inside."
+
+"OK!" Lily said. They ran to the pipe and looked inside. It was dark and empty.
+
+"Can I go in?" Tom asked.
+
+"Sure!" Lily said. "But be careful. It might be dirty or scary."
+
+Tom crawled into the pipe. He felt the cold metal on his hands and knees. He heard his voice echo in the pipe. He liked it. He sang a song.

+Lily heard Tom's song. She smiled. She wanted to go in too.
+
+"Tom, can I come in?" she asked.
+
+"No!" Tom said. "This is my pipe. You can't come in. Go away!"
+
+Lily felt sad. She did not like Tom's words. She thought he was selfish. She did not want to play with him anymore.
+
+"Fine!" she said. "I don't need your pipe. I can find something else to play with."
+
+She walked away from the pipe. She saw a swing, a slide, and a sandbox. She saw other kids playing and laughing. She joined them. She had fun.
+
+Tom stayed in the pipe. He sang his song again. But he did not hear Lily's voice. He felt lonely. He did not have fun. He wished he had shared his pipe with Lily. He crawled out of the pipe. He looked for Lily. He saw her playing with other kids. He felt sorry. He wanted to say sorry.
+
+"Lily, Lily, can we talk?
+I was wrong, I was a jerk.
+Can we be friends and share the pipe?
+Can we play and have a good time?"
+
+Lily heard Tom's words. She turned around. She saw his face. He looked sad. She felt sorry too. She remembered their friendship. She forgave him.

+Mia and Ben went to the park with Mom. They saw a big lake with many ducks and swans. Mia liked the swans. They had long necks and white feathers. She wanted to feed them some bread.
+
+"Can I give them some bread, Mom?" Mia asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. They might bite," Mom said.
+
+Mia took a piece of bread and walked to the edge of the lake. She saw a swan with a big bump on its wing. It looked sad and hurt. Mia felt sorry for it.

+
+She threw another piece of bread. The swan ate it and came closer. It touched Mia's hand with its beak. Mia smiled and stroked its head.

+
+The swan shook its wing and made a sad sound. It had a big cut on it. It hurt a lot. It could not fly with the other swans. It felt lonely and restless.
+
+"Oh, no. You are hurt, swan. Who did this to you?" Mia asked.
+
+The swan pointed with its beak to a big dog. The dog was barking and running around the lake. It chased the ducks and the swans. It wanted to catch them and bite them. It was very mean and scary.
+
+"That dog is bad, swan. He hurt you. He should go away," Mia said.
+
+She looked around and saw a big stick. She picked it up and waved it at the dog.
+
+"Go away, dog. Leave the swan alone. He is my friend. I will support him," Mia said.

+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They have a club. The club is a big box. They put the box under a tree. They draw on the box with crayons. They make the box beautiful.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben go to the park. They want to play in their club. But they see a problem. There is a big dog in their box. The dog is sleeping. The dog is loud. Anna and Ben are scared.
+
+"What do we do?" Anna asks Ben.
+
+"I have an idea," Ben says. He picks up a stick. He says, "This is my club. I will scare the dog away."
+
+Ben steps to the box. He swings his club. He says, "Go away, dog! This is our club!"
+
+The dog wakes up. The dog sees Ben. The dog is angry. The dog barks. The dog jumps out of the box. The dog runs to Ben.
+
+Ben drops his club. He screams. He runs away. Anna runs after him.
+
+The dog chases them. The dog is fast. Anna and Ben are not fast. They are in trouble.
+
+But then, they see a man. The man is the dog's owner. The man calls the dog. The dog stops. The dog goes to the man. The man says, "Sorry, kids. He is not a bad dog. He just likes boxes."
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They are safe. They go back to their club. They fix their box. They play in their club. They have fun. They are friends.
+Anna likes to make music. She has a drum, a flute and a bell. She plays them every day in her room. She likes to make loud and happy sounds.
+
+One day, she hears a new sound. It is not in her room. It is outside. It is very soft and far. It is like a song. Anna wants to find it.
+
+She puts on her shoes and coat. She runs to the door. She tells her mom, "I hear music. Distant music. Can I go see?"
+
+Her mom smiles and says, "Yes, you can. But be careful. And come back soon."
+
+Anna nods and opens the door. She follows the sound. It is coming from the park. She sees a man with a guitar. He is sitting on a bench. He is singing and playing. He has a hat with some coins.
+
+Anna likes his music. She walks closer. She says, "Hello. I like your music. Can I play with you?"
+
+The man looks at her and smiles. He says, "Hello. Thank you. You can play with me. What do you have?"
+
+Anna shows him her drum, her flute and her bell. She says, "I have these. I make music too."
+
+The man says, "That's wonderful. Let's make music together. What do you want to play?"
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She says, "I want to play a happy song. A song for the sun and the birds and the flowers."
+
+The man says, "That sounds lovely. I know a happy song. Do you want to learn it?"
+
+Anna says, "Yes, please."
+
+The man teaches her the words and the tune. He plays his guitar. Anna plays her drum, her flute and her bell. They make music together. They make a happy song. They make people smile. They make friends.
+Sara and Ben are playing in the park. They see a big tree with many birds. They hear the birds sing and chirp. They like the birds.
+
+"Look, Ben, a nest!" Sara says. She points to a hole in the tree. She sees some eggs and a bird. The bird is brown and white. It is a mama bird.
+
+"Wow, a nest!" Ben says. He points to another hole in the tree. He sees some sticks and a bird. The bird is black and red. It is a papa bird.
+
+They watch the birds for a while. They see the birds fly and find food. They see the birds feed their eggs. They see the birds cuddle and sing.
+
+"Ben, look, a cat!" Sara says. She points to a bush. She sees a cat. The cat is gray and sneaky. It is a bad cat.
+
+The cat sees the birds too. It wants to eat them. It creeps to the tree. It jumps to the hole with the sticks. It grabs the papa bird. The papa bird cries and struggles.
+
+"Help, help!" the papa bird says. "The cat has me!"
+
+The mama bird hears the papa bird. She is scared and sad. She flies to the hole with the sticks. She pecks the cat. She tries to save the papa bird.
+
+"Go away, go away!" the mama bird says. "Leave my papa bird alone!"
+
+Sara and Ben hear the birds and the cat. They are shocked and worried. They run to the tree. They shout at the cat.
+
+"Stop, stop!" Sara says. "Let the papa bird go!"
+
+"Bad, bad!" Ben says. "The birds are not your food!"
+
+The cat hears the children. It is scared and angry. It drops the papa bird. It hisses and runs away.
+
+The papa bird is hurt and weak. He falls to the ground. The mama bird flies to him. She hugs him and kisses him.
+
+"Are you okay, are you okay?" the mama bird says. "I love you, I love you!"
+
+The papa bird smiles and nods. He loves her too.
+
+Sara and Ben see the poor birds. They feel sorry for them. They want to help them.
+
+"Can we help you, can we help you?" Sara says. "You are nice birds."
+
+"Thank you, thank you!" the mama bird says. "You are kind children."
+
+They bring some water and some seeds to the birds. They pet them and talk to them. They make them happy.

+
+One day, Tom and Lily find a new model in their toy box. It is a model of a rocket. It is shiny and red and has a pointy nose. Tom and Lily have never seen a rocket before.
+
+"What is this?" Tom asks.
+
+"It is a rocket," Lily says. "It can fly very high in the sky. It is different from our other models."
+
+"Can we play with it?" Tom asks.
+
+"Yes, we can," Lily says. "Let's pretend we are astronauts and go to the moon."
+
+Tom and Lily put on their helmets and get inside the rocket. They push a button and the rocket makes a loud noise. It zooms up in the air and leaves a trail of smoke.
+
+"Wow, this is fun!" Tom says.
+
+"Look, there is the moon!" Lily says. "It is big and white and has holes."

+
+"Can I ride your bicycle, Ben?" Mia asks.
+
+"OK, but be careful. It is big and fast," Ben says.
+
+Mia gets on the bicycle. But her feet do not touch the pedals. And her hands do not reach the handlebars. She feels scared.
+
+"Ben, this bicycle does not fit me. It is too big. I want to get off," Mia says.
+
+Ben helps Mia get off the bicycle. He sees that she is sad.
+
+"I'm sorry, Mia. Maybe when you grow bigger, you can ride my bicycle. Do you want to play something else?" Ben says.
+
+Mia nods. She thinks of something.

+
+"Can I join your wood with my hammer?" Tim asks Sam.
+
+"Yes, you can. Your hammer is reliable. It can make strong nails," Sam says.

+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the garden. They see some seeds in a box. They want to grow food.
+
+"Let's plant the seeds," Tom says. "We can make a salad."
+
+"OK," Sue says. "But how do we grow food?"
+
+Tom thinks. He remembers what his mom told him. "We need dirt, water and sun," he says. "And we need to wait."
+
+They dig some holes in the dirt. They put the seeds in the holes. They cover them with more dirt. They water them with a can. They look at the sky. It is sunny.
+
+"Good," Tom says. "Now we wait."
+
+They wait for a long time. They play with their toys. They sing some songs. They eat some snacks. They look at the dirt. Nothing happens.
+
+"Where is the food?" Sue asks. "I'm hungry."
+
+Tom shrugs. He does not know. He is hungry too. He looks at the box. He reads the label. It says "carrots".
+
+"Carrots are tough," he says. "Maybe they need more time to grow."
+
+"More time?" Sue says. "But I want food now."
+
+Tom has an idea. He runs to the kitchen. He comes back with a bag. He opens the bag. He takes out some carrots. They are orange and crunchy.
+
+"Look," he says. "I found some food. We can eat these carrots."
+
+Sue smiles. She takes a carrot. She bites it. It is sweet and juicy.
+
+"Yum," she says. "These are good. Thank you, Tom."
+
+Tom smiles too. He eats a carrot. He likes it. He thinks of the seeds in the dirt.
+
+"Maybe they will grow too," he says. "Then we can have more food."
+
+They eat the carrots. They are happy. They are friends. They like to grow food.
+Tom and Mia are playing with their toys. They have a big box that they pretend is a spaceship. They make noises like zoom and beep and blast. They have fun flying to different planets and meeting aliens.
+
+One day, they find a shiny thing in the box. It is a laser. Tom picks it up and presses a button. A red light comes out of the laser and makes a sound like pew pew pew. Tom thinks it is cool and says, "Look, Mia, I have a laser! I can shoot anything!"
+
+Mia is scared of the laser. She thinks it is dangerous and says, "No, Tom, put it down! You might hurt someone or break something!"
+
+Tom does not listen to Mia. He points the laser at the wall and makes a hole. He points the laser at the lamp and makes it fall. He points the laser at the window and makes it crack. He laughs and says, "Ha ha ha, I am mighty! I can do anything!"
+
+Mia is very mad at Tom. She runs to the box and grabs another shiny thing. It is a remote. She presses a button and the box closes. Tom is trapped inside the box. He cannot get out. He says, "Hey, let me out! This is not fair!"
+
+Mia says, "You are not mighty, Tom, you are naughty! You have to say sorry and promise to be good. Then I will let you out."
+
+Tom thinks for a while. He feels bad for what he did. He says, "I am sorry, Mia. I was wrong. I will not play with the laser again. I will be good. Please let me out."
+
+Mia smiles and says, "Okay, Tom, I forgive you. But you have to share your toys and be nice to me." She presses the button and the box opens. Tom comes out and hugs Mia. They say sorry to each other and make up. They put the laser and the remote back in the box and play with their other toys. They have fun flying to different planets and meeting aliens.
+Lily was a shy girl who liked to read books and draw pictures. She did not like to talk to many people, only her mom and dad and her best friend Mia. Mia was a funny girl who liked to joke and make Lily laugh. She also liked to eat sausages, her favorite food.
+
+One day, Lily and Mia went to the park with their moms. They saw a big slide and a swing and a sandbox. They wanted to play together, but there were many other kids there. Lily felt scared and wanted to stay with her mom. Mia said, "Don't be shy, Lily. Come and play with me. It will be fun!"
+
+Mia took Lily's hand and led her to the slide. They waited for their turn and then slid down together. Lily felt a little happy, but still nervous. Mia said, "That was fun, right? Let's go to the swing now." They ran to the swing and pushed each other. Lily felt more happy, but still nervous. Mia said, "You are doing great, Lily. Let's go to the sandbox now."
+
+They went to the sandbox and found some toys. They started to build a castle with sand and shells and sticks. Lily felt very happy, and not so nervous. Mia said, "Look, Lily. We made a beautiful castle. Do you want to live in it?" Lily nodded and smiled. Mia said, "OK, then. You can be the queen and I can be the jester. I will tell you jokes and make you laugh." Lily liked that idea. She said, "OK, then. You can be the jester and I can be the queen. What jokes do you have?"
+
+Mia thought for a moment and then said, "Why did the sausage cross the road?" Lily did not know. She said, "I don't know. Why?" Mia said, "Because it was a hot dog!" Lily laughed and said, "That is a funny joke, Mia. Do you have another one?" Mia said, "Yes, I do. What do you call a sausage that is scared?" Lily did not know. She said, "I don't know. What?" Mia said, "A fright-wurst!" Lily laughed again and said, "That is another funny joke, Mia. You are very good at jokes."
+
+They played in the sandbox for a long time, telling jokes and laughing. Lily felt very happy, and not nervous at all. She was glad that Mia was her friend. She said, "Thank you, Mia. You are a very good friend. You make me feel brave and happy." Mia said, "You are welcome, Lily. You are a very good friend too. You make me feel smart and funny." They hugged and smiled. They had a lot of fun at the park. They also had a lot of sausages for lunch.
+Tim and Sue were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big black and white animal in a cage. It was a panda. They had never seen a panda before.
+
+"Wow, look at the panda!" Tim said. "It is so big and fluffy. Can we pet it?"
+
+Sue shook her head. "No, we can't. The sign says do not touch. The panda is sick. It needs to rest."
+
+They watched the panda for a while. It did not move much. It looked sad and tired. Tim and Sue felt sorry for it.
+
+"Maybe we can give it a snack," Tim said. "I have some cookies in my bag. Pandas like cookies, right?"
+
+Sue nodded. "Maybe. But we have to be careful. The cage has a lock. We can't open it."
+
+They looked around. No one was watching. They tiptoed to the cage. Tim reached for the lock. He tried to turn it. It was hard. He pulled and pushed. It did not open.
+
+"Let me try," Sue said. She took the lock. She twisted and tugged. It did not open.
+
+They heard a loud noise. It was the zookeeper. He was angry.
+
+"Hey, you two! What are you doing? Get away from the cage! You can't feed the panda. It is on a special diet. And you can't part the lock. It is for its safety. The panda is very sick. It might die soon."
+
+Tim and Sue gasped. They dropped the cookies. They ran away. They felt scared and sad.
+
+They did not want the panda to die. They wanted it to be happy and healthy. They wished they could help it. They wished they could be its friends.
+Lily was anxious. She wanted to see her new baby brother, but Mom said he was sleeping in his crib. Lily was not allowed to go in his room when he was sleeping. She had to wait until he woke up.
+
+But Lily was curious. She wanted to see his face, his hair, his fingers. She wanted to touch him and talk to him and play with him. She wondered if he looked like her, or like Mom, or like Dad.
+
+She tiptoed to his door and peeked inside. She saw his crib, with a blue blanket and a teddy bear. She saw his chest moving up and down. He was breathing. He was sleeping.
+
+She opened the door a little bit and stepped inside. She was very quiet. She walked to his crib and leaned over the railing. She saw his face, his hair, his fingers. He looked like her, and like Mom, and like Dad. He was cute.
+
+She smiled and whispered, "Hi, baby brother. I'm Lily. I'm your big sister. I love you."
+
+He opened his eyes and looked at her. He made a noise. He was not happy. He started to cry.
+
+Mom heard him and came to his room. She saw Lily and the baby. She was not happy. She said, "Lily, what are you doing here? You know you can't go in his room when he's sleeping. You scared him. You have to be gentle with him. He's very small."
+
+Lily felt bad. She said, "I'm sorry, Mom. I just wanted to see him. I love him."
+
+Mom sighed and said, "I know, Lily. I love him too. And I love you. But you have to wait until he's awake. Then you can see him and hold him and play with him. OK?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "OK, Mom. I'll wait. Can I give him a kiss?"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Yes, you can. But be careful. Don't wake him up again."
+
+Lily leaned over the crib and gave him a soft kiss on his cheek. He stopped crying and closed his eyes. He was sleeping.
+
+Lily said, "Bye, baby brother. See you later."
+
+She followed Mom out of his room and closed the door. She was still anxious, but also happy. She had a baby brother. She loved him.
+Lily and Tom are twins. They like to play in the garden. One day, they find a big box under a tree. It is brown and has a lot of paper inside.
+
+"What is this?" Lily asks.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe it is a present," Tom says.
+
+They open the box and see many things. There are books, toys, clothes, and a mysterious map. The map has pictures of mountains, rivers, and a treasure chest.
+
+"Wow, this is cool. Let's follow the map and find the treasure," Tom says.
+
+"OK, but we have to be careful. Maybe there are monsters or traps on the way," Lily says.
+
+They take the map and some paper and pencils. They rush to the back of the garden. There is a fence with a hole. They crawl through the hole and enter a new place. It is a park with a playground, a pond, and a bridge.
+
+"Look, the map says we have to cross the bridge and go to the big rock," Tom says.
+
+They run to the bridge and see a duck. The duck is quacking and flapping its wings.
+
+"Hello, duck. Do you know where the treasure is?" Lily asks.
+
+The duck looks at them and nods. It points its beak to the other side of the bridge.
+
+"Thank you, duck. You are very nice," Tom says.
+
+They cross the bridge and go to the big rock. They see a hole under the rock. They dig with their hands and find a small box. It is shiny and has a lock.
+
+"Maybe this is the treasure. How do we open it?" Lily asks.
+
+"Maybe we need a key. Let's look at the paper. Maybe there is a clue," Tom says.
+
+They look at the paper and see a drawing of a flower. They remember that there is a flower bed near the pond.
+
+"Maybe the key is in the flower bed. Let's go and see," Lily says.
+
+They rush to the flower bed and search for the key. They find it under a red rose. They are very happy.
+
+"Yay, we found the key. Let's go back and open the box," Tom says.
+
+They rush back to the rock and open the box. Inside, they see a lot of candy, stickers, and a note. The note says:
+
+"Dear Lily and Tom, this is a surprise for you. You are very brave and smart. We are proud of you. Love, Mom and Dad."
+
+Lily and Tom smile and hug each other. They eat some candy and share some with the duck. They say thank you to Mom and Dad. They have a lot of fun with their treasure. They are very happy.
+Lily liked to shake her toy dog. She made it bark and wag its tail. She pretended it was her friend and played with it every day. She gave it a name: Spot.
+
+One day, Lily's mom said, "Lily, it's time for a shower. You are dirty and smelly. Come on, let's go to the bathroom."
+
+Lily did not want to go. She wanted to play with Spot. She said, "No, mom. I don't need a shower. Spot and I are fine."
+
+Mom said, "Lily, you have to take a shower. It will make you clean and fresh. You can bring Spot with you. He needs a shower too. He is dirty and smelly like you."
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She did not like to be dirty and smelly. She wanted to be clean and fresh. She looked at Spot. He was dirty and smelly too. She said, "Okay, mom. I will take a shower. But only if Spot can come with me."
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Of course, Spot can come with you. He is your toy dog. You can do whatever you want with him. Come on, let's go to the bathroom."
+
+Lily and Spot went to the bathroom with mom. Mom turned on the water and made it warm. She helped Lily and Spot get wet. She put soap on them and rubbed them gently. She rinsed them with water and wrapped them in a towel. She said, "There, you are done. You are both clean and fresh. You smell lovely."
+
+Lily and Spot felt good. They were clean and fresh. They smelled lovely. They thanked mom and hugged her. They went back to their room and played some more. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily were playing a game. They had to roll a dice and move on a board. The one who got to the end first would win. Ben rolled a six and moved six spaces. Lily rolled a four and moved four spaces.
+
+"Wow, you are lucky, Ben!" Lily said. "You are so close to the end!"
+
+Ben smiled. He liked to win. He rolled the dice again. He got a five and moved five spaces. He was one space away from the end.
+
+"Your turn, Lily!" Ben said. "Maybe you can catch up!"
+
+Lily rolled the dice. She got a six and moved six spaces. She was also one space away from the end.
+
+"Wow, you are lucky, too, Lily!" Ben said. "We are both almost there!"
+
+They looked at each other. They both wanted to win. They both rolled the dice at the same time. They both got a six and moved six spaces. They both reached the end at the same time.
+
+"Wow, we both win!" Lily said. "We are both lucky!"
+
+Ben nodded. He was happy. He liked to win, but he also liked to share. He gave Lily a high five.
+
+"That was a fun game!" Ben said. "Do you want to play again?"
+
+Lily nodded. She was happy, too. She liked to win, but she also liked to be fair. She gave Ben a hug.
+
+"Yes, let's play again!" Lily said. "But first, let's have a snack. I'm hungry!"
+
+They put away the game and went to the kitchen. They had some cookies and milk. They talked and laughed. They were good friends. They did not mind to wait for the next game. They knew it would be fun, too.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big hill. They want to climb the hill.
+
+"Let's go up the hill!" Lily says. "Maybe we can see the sun and the birds."
+
+"OK!" Ben says. "But it looks dark up there. Maybe there are monsters."
+
+Lily is not afraid. She says, "No, there are no monsters. Only trees and rocks. Come on, Ben, it will be fun!"
+
+They start to climb the hill. They see many stones on the ground. Some are small and some are big. Some are shiny and some are dull. Lily picks up a small shiny stone. She likes it. She says, "Look, Ben, I found a pretty stone. It sparkles like a star. I will bring it home and show it to Mommy."
+
+Ben picks up a big dull stone. He likes it. He says, "Look, Lily, I found a heavy stone. It is hard like a brick. I will bring it home and build a fort."
+
+They keep climbing the hill. They see more stones. They pick up more stones. They have many stones in their hands. They are happy.
+
+They reach the top of the hill. They see the sun and the birds. They also see the park and their homes. They say, "Wow, we are so high! We can see everything!"
+
+They smile at each other. They say, "We did it! We climbed the hill! We found many stones!"
+
+They hug each other. They are friends. They are proud. They are ready to go home and show their stones.
+Lily liked to play with her mom's jewelry. She liked the shiny rings and necklaces and bracelets. She liked to put them on and pretend she was a princess. But she knew she had to be careful and not break them.
+
+One day, she found a new jewelry box in her mom's room. It was big and red and had a lock. Lily was curious. She wanted to see what was inside. She looked for the key, but she could not find it. She tried to open the lock with her fingers, but it was too hard. She saw a small hole in the lock. She thought maybe she could twist something in the hole and open it.
+
+She looked around and saw a paper clip on the desk. She picked it up and bent it. She put it in the hole and twisted it. She heard a click. She smiled. She opened the jewelry box.
+
+Inside, she saw a lot of normal things. There were some earrings and a watch and a pin. But there was also something very strange. It was a small metal ball with spikes. It looked like a toy, but it was not. Lily did not know what it was. She touched it. It felt cold and sharp.
+
+Suddenly, the ball moved. It opened up and showed a lot of tiny teeth. It bit Lily's finger. Lily screamed. She dropped the ball and the jewelry box. She ran to her mom.
+
+"Mommy, mommy, help me!" she cried. "There is a monster in your jewelry box!"
+
+Her mom heard her and came to see. She saw the blood on Lily's finger and the mess on the floor. She saw the ball with teeth. She gasped.
+
+"Lily, what did you do?" she asked. "That is not a toy. That is a spy gadget. It is very dangerous. You should never touch it."
+
+She took Lily to the bathroom and cleaned her wound. She put a band-aid on it and hugged her.
+
+"I'm sorry, mommy," Lily said. "I just wanted to see your jewelry. I didn't know it was a spy gadget. What is a spy gadget?"
+
+Her mom sighed. She wondered how to explain to a three year old that she was a secret agent and that the ball was a weapon. She decided to tell her a simple story.
+
+"A spy gadget is something that helps me do my job," she said. "My job is to protect people from bad guys. Sometimes I need to use special things like the ball to stop them. But you should never touch them. They are not for playing. They are for working. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded. She understood that her mom had a special job and that she had to be careful with her things. She also understood that she had to be more careful with her own curiosity. She hugged her mom and said sorry again.
+
+Her mom smiled and kissed her. She said it was okay and that she loved her. She said she would put the ball and the jewelry box in a safer place. She said she would buy her a new toy to play with. She said she was proud of her for being brave and honest.
+
+Lily felt better. She loved her mom too. She said she was proud of her for being a spy. She said she wanted to be a spy too when she grew up.
+
+Her mom laughed. She said maybe she could, but only if she learned to use normal words.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the woods. They liked to pretend they were animals and hide from each other. Tom was a fox and Lily was a rabbit. They ran and jumped and had fun.
+
+But then they heard a loud noise. It was a hunter with a big gun. He was looking for animals to shoot. Tom and Lily were scared. They did not want to be shot.
+
+"Quick, hide!" Tom whispered to Lily. He saw a big pile of leaves and ran to it. He covered himself with the leaves and hoped the hunter would not see him. Lily followed him and did the same.
+
+The hunter came closer. He saw some tracks on the ground. He followed them to the pile of leaves. He kicked the leaves and saw Tom and Lily. They screamed and tried to run away.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing here?" the hunter shouted. He was angry and confused. He thought they were animals, not children.
+
+"We are playing, please don't hurt us!" Lily cried. She was very uncomfortable and afraid.
+
+The hunter realized his mistake. He felt sorry for scaring them. He put down his gun and apologized.
+
+"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were here. I was looking for foxes and rabbits, not children. You should not play in the woods when there are hunters around. It is dangerous. Come, I will take you back to your parents."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They were glad the hunter was not mean. They followed him out of the woods and back to their home. They hugged their parents and told them what happened. Their parents were relieved and thanked the hunter for bringing them back. They also told them not to play in the woods again.
+
+Tom and Lily learned their lesson. They decided to play in the garden instead. They still liked to pretend they were animals, but they did not cover themselves with leaves anymore. They did not want to meet another hunter.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to slide down the big tube. It was fun and fast. But sometimes they had to wait for their turn, because other kids wanted to slide too.
+
+One day, a boy came to the park. He was bigger than Lily and Ben. He did not want to wait for his turn. He pushed Lily and Ben away from the tube and slid down by himself. He did it again and again.
+
+Lily and Ben were sad and angry. They did not like the boy. He was mean and rude. They wanted to slide too. They decided to tell him to stop.
+
+"Hey, you!" Lily yelled at the boy. "You have to share the tube! It is not yours!"
+
+The boy did not listen. He laughed and slid down again. He stuck out his tongue at Lily and Ben.
+
+"Go away!" he yelled back. "I don't care! I can do what I want!"
+
+Lily and Ben did not know what to do. They felt helpless and scared. They looked around for help. They saw a lady sitting on a bench. She was the boy's mom.
+
+"Mommy!" Ben yelled. "That boy is not nice! He does not share the tube! He pushes us and laughs at us!"
+
+The lady heard Ben. She looked at the boy. She saw what he was doing. She was not happy. She got up and walked to the tube.
+
+"Tommy!" she yelled at the boy. "What are you doing? You have to be kind and polite! You have to take turns and say sorry! You are being a bad boy!"
+
+The boy heard his mom. He stopped sliding. He looked at his mom. He saw her angry face. He felt ashamed and scared. He knew he was in trouble.
+
+"Sorry, mommy," he said in a small voice. "I was just having fun."
+
+The lady shook her head. She took the boy by the hand and led him away from the tube. She said he had to go home and think about what he did. She said he had to apologize to Lily and Ben.
+
+Lily and Ben watched the boy leave. They felt relieved and happy. They thanked the lady for helping them. They went back to the tube and slid down together. They had fun and made friends with the other kids. They shared the tube and said please and thank you. They were good kids.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. Tom had a big truck that he liked to drive around. Lily had a doll that she liked to dress up. They were having fun until Tom saw Lily's doll.
+
+"Can I play with your doll?" Tom asked.
+
+"No, this is my doll. You have your truck," Lily said.
+
+"But I want to play with your doll. It has pretty hair and clothes," Tom said.
+
+He tried to grab the doll from Lily, but she held it tight. They started to pull and tug on the doll, making it cry.
+
+"Stop it, Tom! You are hurting my doll!" Lily shouted.
+
+Tom did not stop. He pulled harder and harder, until he ripped the doll's hair. Lily gasped and started to cry.
+
+"Look what you did! You ruined my doll's hair!" Lily sobbed.
+
+Tom felt bad. He did not mean to hurt the doll. He wanted to make Lily happy again.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily. I have an idea. I can replace your doll's hair with something else," Tom said.
+
+He looked around and saw a pair of scissors on the table. He had an idea. He took the scissors and ran to the kitchen. He saw a bunch of bananas on the counter. He cut some of the peels and stuck them on the doll's head.
+
+"Here, Lily. I fixed your doll. Now it has new hair," Tom said.
+
+He brought the doll back to Lily and showed her. Lily looked at the doll and saw the yellow peels on its head. She did not like it at all. She thought Tom was foolish.
+
+"That's not hair, Tom. That's banana peel. You made my doll look silly. I don't want it anymore," Lily said.
+
+She threw the doll on the floor and ran to her room. Tom felt sad. He did not know what to do. He picked up the doll and the truck and put them away. He wished he had not played with Lily's doll. He learned his lesson. He decided to play with his own toys from now on.
+Lily wanted to help her mom wash the dishes. She climbed on a chair and reached for the sink. But the sink was too high and the dishes were too heavy. She felt weak and scared.
+
+"Mom, I can't do it!" she cried.
+
+Mom came and hugged her. "It's okay, Lily. You are very brave to try. But you are still small and the sink is too big for you. Why don't you help me dry the dishes instead?"
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. She got a towel and followed Mom. Mom handed her a plate and she wiped it with the towel. She felt happy and proud.
+
+"Look, Mom, I can do it!" she said.
+
+Mom smiled and kissed her. "Yes, you can, Lily. You are a great helper. I love you very much."
+Ben and Mia liked to play with their toy ship in the bath. They made the ship sail and splash in the water. They pretended they were pirates and looked for treasure.
+
+One night, they wanted to play with their ship after dinner. But mom said no, it was time for bed. Ben and Mia did not want to go to bed. They wanted to play with their ship. They had a plan.
+
+They waited until mom was busy in the kitchen. Then they sneaked into the bathroom and filled the tub with water. They put their ship in the water and climbed in. They were very quiet so mom would not hear them.
+
+But the water was cold and the bathroom was dark. Ben and Mia started to shiver and feel scared. They could not see their ship very well. They heard a strange noise from the drain. They thought it was a monster.
+
+"Help, help!" Ben cried. "The monster wants to eat our ship!"
+
+Mia grabbed the ship and tried to pull it out of the water. But the ship was stuck in the drain. Mia could not get it out. She started to cry.
+
+"Stop, stop!" Mia sobbed. "We can't lose our ship!"
+
+They both struggled to free their ship from the drain. They made a lot of noise. Mom heard them and came to the bathroom. She turned on the light and saw them in the tub.
+
+"What are you doing?" mom asked. "You are supposed to be in bed!"
+
+Ben and Mia looked at mom. They felt sorry and ashamed. They knew they had done something bad.
+
+"We wanted to play with our ship," Ben said.
+
+"But it got stuck in the drain," Mia said.
+
+Mom sighed. She was angry but also worried. She helped them get out of the tub and dried them off. She took the ship out of the drain and gave it back to them.
+
+"You can play with your ship tomorrow," mom said. "But now you have to go to bed. And no more sneaking around, okay?"
+
+Ben and Mia nodded. They hugged mom and said sorry. They took their ship to their room and put it on the shelf. They went to bed and fell asleep. They dreamed of sailing and splashing in the water. But they also dreamed of the monster in the drain. They hoped it would not come back.
+Lily and Max were playing outside 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 having fun, but they were also very cold.
+
+"Let's go inside and get warm," Lily said. "Mom made hot cocoa for us."
+
+"OK," Max said. "But first, let's give our snowman a sweater. He looks cold too."
+
+They ran to the porch and found an old sweater that was too small for them. They put it on the snowman and wrapped it around him. They smiled at their snowman. He looked cozy and happy.
+
+"Bye, snowman," Lily said. "We'll come back and play with you later."
+
+They went inside the house and took off their boots and coats. Mom was waiting for them with two mugs of hot cocoa and some cookies. She hugged them and kissed their cheeks.
+
+"You two look like snowflakes," she said. "Did you have fun?"
+
+"Yes, Mom," Lily said. "We made a snowman and gave him a sweater."
+
+"That was very nice of you," Mom said. "But you know, snowmen don't get cold. They like the snow. They don't need sweaters."
+
+Lily and Max looked at each other. They felt silly. They didn't know that snowmen didn't get cold. They thought they were helping him.
+
+"Sorry, Mom," Max said. "We didn't know."
+
+"That's OK," Mom said. "You were trying to be kind. And I'm sure your snowman liked your sweater. It was very colorful and pretty."
+
+Lily and Max smiled. They felt better. They drank their hot cocoa and ate their cookies. They felt warm and cozy. They were glad they had a mom who loved them and a snowman who was their friend.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud sneeze from outside. They looked out the window and saw their snowman. He had a big icicle hanging from his nose. He looked like he had a cold.
+
+"Mom, look!" Lily said. "Our snowman sneezed!"
+
+Mom looked out the window and laughed. She saw the snowman and the icicle. She thought it was funny.
+
+"Maybe he does need a sweater after all," she said. "Or maybe a tissue."
+Ben and Lily liked to play in the swamp near their house. They liked to see the frogs, the fish and the birds that lived there. Sometimes they saw a big orange lizard that had a long tail and sharp teeth. They called him Mr. Lizard.
+
+One day, Ben and Lily went to the swamp with a basket of bread. They wanted to feed the birds and the fish. They walked along the edge of the water, looking for a good spot to sit. They saw Mr. Lizard on a big rock, sunning himself.
+
+"Hello, Mr. Lizard!" Ben said. "Do you want some bread?"
+
+Mr. Lizard opened his eyes and looked at Ben and Lily. He licked his lips and smiled.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. Thank you, Lily. I would love some bread. Why don't you come closer and sit with me?" he said.
+
+Ben and Lily thought Mr. Lizard was very friendly. They walked towards the rock, holding the basket of bread. They did not see the other orange lizards hiding in the swamp, waiting for them.
+
+"Ben, Lily, stop!" a voice shouted. It was their dad, who had followed them to the swamp. He saw the danger and ran to save them.
+
+"Mr. Lizard is not your friend. He is a crocodile. He wants to eat you, not the bread. Run away, now!" he said.
+
+Ben and Lily dropped the basket of bread and ran back to their dad. They were scared and sorry. They hugged their dad and thanked him.
+
+"Sorry, dad. We did not know. He looked nice and he talked to us," Ben said.
+
+"It's okay, Ben. It's okay, Lily. You are safe now. But you have to be careful in the swamp. There are many animals that can hurt you. Never go near the crocodiles. They are not nice. They are mean," their dad said.
+
+Ben and Lily nodded. They learned their lesson. They never went near the crocodiles again. They still liked to play in the swamp, but they only fed the birds and the fish. And they always listened to their dad.
+Tom and Anna were going to the airport with Mom and Dad. They wanted to see Grandma and Grandpa, who lived far away. They had big bags and small bags, and Mom and Dad had tickets.
+
+At the airport, there were many people and many noises. Tom and Anna saw big planes and small planes, and they heard loud speakers and loud engines. They followed Mom and Dad to a line, where they had to wait.
+
+Tom and Anna did not like to wait. They were impatient. They wanted to get on the plane and fly to Grandma and Grandpa. They started to act silly. They made faces and noises, and they ran around the line. They bumped into other people and other bags.
+
+"Tom, Anna, stop!" Mom said. "You have to act nice. We are almost there. You have to be calm and quiet."
+
+"But Mom, we are bored!" Tom said.
+
+"And we are tired!" Anna said.
+
+Mom sighed. She gave them a hug and a snack. She showed them a book and a toy. She said, "I know, it is hard to wait. But it will be worth it. Soon, we will be on the plane, and then we will see Grandma and Grandpa. They are waiting for us, too. They are very excited to see you. They have a surprise for you. Can you guess what it is?"
+
+Tom and Anna forgot about being impatient. They tried to guess the surprise. They said, "Is it a cake? Is it a puppy? Is it a bike?" They smiled and laughed. They acted nice. They waited for the plane.
+Tom and Lily went to the pond with their dad. They wanted to catch some fish with their net. Dad showed them how to hold the net and swing it in the water. "Be careful not to fill the net too much, or it will break," he said.
+
+Tom and Lily nodded and tried to catch some fish. They saw some big fish and some small fish. They wanted to catch the big fish, because they looked more fun. They swung their net at the big fish, but they were too fast and smart. They swam away from the net.
+
+Lily saw a small fish near the edge of the pond. It was shiny and pretty. She swung her net at the small fish and caught it. She was happy and showed it to Tom and Dad. "Look, I caught a fish!" she said.
+
+Tom was jealous. He wanted to catch a fish too. He saw a big fish near the edge of the pond. It was not shiny and pretty, but it was big and fat. He thought it was a foolish fish, because it did not swim away from the net. He swung his net at the big fish and caught it. He was happy and showed it to Lily and Dad. "Look, I caught a bigger fish!" he said.
+
+But the big fish was not a foolish fish. It was a clever fish. It had a sharp fin and a strong tail. It did not like being in the net. It poked the net with its fin and made a hole. It wiggled its tail and made the net swing. It splashed water and made Tom wet. It jumped out of the net and back into the pond. Tom was sad and angry. He had no fish. He had a wet net with a hole. He had a wet face and a wet shirt. He cried and said, "That was a bad fish!"
+
+Dad hugged Tom and said, "Don't cry, Tom. It was not a bad fish. It was a smart fish. You were too greedy and filled the net too much. Next time, be happy with a small fish, like Lily. They are easier to catch and nicer to look at."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Yes, Tom. Small fish are better. Do you want to share my fish with me?"
+
+Tom nodded and said, "Yes, Lily. Thank you. You are a good sister. I am sorry I was greedy."
+
+Dad smiled and said, "That's OK, Tom. You learned your lesson. Now let's go home and have some lunch. Maybe we can have some fish sticks."
+
+Tom and Lily laughed and said, "Yes, Dad. We love fish sticks."
+
+They put their net in the car and went home. They had a good lunch and a good day. They learned to be happy with what they have and not to fill their net too much.
+Tom and Lily love to play with their dinosaur toys. They have many different kinds of dinosaurs, big and small, with long necks or sharp teeth. They like to make them roar and stomp and fight.
+
+One day, they decide to have a race with their dinosaurs. They line them up on the floor and say "ready, set, go!" They push their dinosaurs along the floor as fast as they can. Tom has a red dinosaur with wings. Lily has a green dinosaur with spikes. They are very competitive. They want to win.
+
+They reach the end of the floor and look at each other. They both think their dinosaur is first. They start to argue.
+
+"My dinosaur is first! He has wings! He can fly!" Tom says.
+
+"No, my dinosaur is first! He has spikes! He can poke!" Lily says.
+
+They both blink. They see their mom standing in the door. She looks unhappy.
+
+"Stop arguing, you two. It doesn't matter who is first. It matters that you have fun and share. Can you do that?" she says.
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They feel sorry. They hug each other and say sorry. They pick up their dinosaurs and smile.
+
+"Can we play again, mom?" they ask.
+
+"Sure, but this time, no race. Just play nicely, okay?" mom says.
+
+"Okay, mom. We love you. We love our dinosaurs too." they say.
+
+They go back to the floor and play with their dinosaurs. They make them roar and stomp and be friends. They are happy.
+Tom and Mia are twins. They like to play with their toys. Sometimes they play nice, sometimes they fight. One day, they find a big box in the living room. It is from their dad's office. They want to see what is inside.
+
+They open the box and see many things. There are papers, pens, books, and a shiny thing. The shiny thing is a phone. It has buttons and a screen. Tom and Mia think it is fun. They take it out of the box and pretend to call each other.
+
+"Hello, this is Tom. How are you, Mia?" Tom says.
+
+"I am good, Tom. Do you want to play with me?" Mia says.
+
+"Yes, I do. But first, let me see the phone. It is my turn." Tom says.
+
+He tries to grab the phone from Mia. Mia does not want to give it. They pull and tug. The phone breaks. It makes a loud noise. The screen cracks. The buttons fall off. Tom and Mia are scared. They drop the phone and run away.
+
+Their dad comes home from work. He sees the box and the broken phone. He is angry. He calls Tom and Mia. They come slowly. They look down. They are sorry.
+
+"Who broke my phone?" Dad asks.
+
+Tom and Mia are quiet. They do not want to tell. They are afraid of dad. But they know they have to be honest. They look at each other. They nod.
+
+"We did, dad. We are sorry. We did not mean to break it. We were playing." Tom says.
+
+"We wanted to see what was inside the box. We thought the phone was fun. We did not know it was important." Mia says.
+
+Dad sighs. He is still angry, but he is also sad. He loves Tom and Mia. He knows they are good kids. He knows they made a mistake.
+
+"I am glad you told me the truth. That was honest of you. But you should not have touched my things. They are not toys. They are for work. You could have hurt yourself or the phone. Do you understand?" Dad says.
+
+Tom and Mia nod. They understand. They feel bad.
+
+"We are sorry, dad. We will not do it again. Can you forgive us?" Tom and Mia say.
+
+Dad hugs them. He forgives them. He is not angry anymore. He is proud of them for being honest.
+
+"I forgive you, Tom and Mia. I love you. But you have to be more careful next time. And you have to help me clean up this mess. OK?" Dad says.
+
+Tom and Mia say OK. They help dad clean up the box and the phone. They learn their lesson. They do not touch dad's things anymore. They play with their own toys. They play nice. They are happy.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to travel with their mom and dad. They had a big car that could fit all their toys and clothes. Sometimes they went to the beach, sometimes they went to the mountains, and sometimes they went to see their grandma and grandpa.
+
+One day, they went to a farm where they saw many animals. There were cows, horses, sheep, pigs, chickens, and ducks. Sara and Ben wanted to pet them all, but their mom and dad told them to be careful and gentle. They also told them not to touch the fence, because it had electricity to keep the animals safe.
+
+Sara and Ben listened to their mom and dad, but they were very curious. They saw a big horse that had a long mane and a shiny coat. It looked very graceful and friendly. Sara and Ben wanted to pet it, but it was behind the fence. They thought they could reach it if they stretched their arms.
+
+"Look, Ben, the horse is smiling at us!" Sara said. "Let's go and say hello!"
+
+"OK, Sara, but be quiet. We don't want to scare it," Ben said.
+
+They tiptoed to the fence and reached out their hands. But as soon as they touched the wire, they felt a zap and a shock. They screamed and jumped back. The horse neighed and ran away.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow! That hurt!" Sara cried.
+
+"Me too, me too! That was bad!" Ben cried.
+
+Their mom and dad heard them and ran to them. They hugged them and checked them for injuries. They were not hurt, but they had a red mark on their fingers and an itch on their skin.
+
+"What happened, Sara and Ben? Why did you touch the fence?" their mom asked.
+
+"We wanted to pet the horse, mom. It was so pretty and nice," Sara said.
+
+"But the fence has electricity, Sara. We told you not to touch it. It can hurt you and the animals," their dad said.
+
+"We're sorry, mom and dad. We didn't know. We won't do it again," Ben said.
+
+Their mom and dad kissed them and gave them some cream for their itch. They also gave them some water and cookies. They told them they still loved them, but they had to be more careful and listen to them.
+
+Sara and Ben said they were sorry and they loved them too. They learned their lesson and decided to watch the animals from a distance. They still enjoyed their travel to the farm, but they never touched the fence again.
+Tim and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their toys in their room. One day, they hear a knock on the door. It is their grandpa. He is bald and has a big smile.
+
+"Hello, boys!" he says. "Can I come in and play with you?"
+
+"Yes, grandpa!" Tim and Sam say. They hug him and show him their toys. Grandpa likes to play with them. He makes funny noises and tells them stories.
+
+After a while, they hear their mom call them. "Boys, it's time for lunch! Come and eat some food!"
+
+"OK, mom!" Tim and Sam say. They put their toys away and run to the kitchen. Grandpa follows them.
+
+They see a big plate of sandwiches and a bowl of fruit on the table. They sit down and start to eat. Grandpa sits next to them and eats too.
+
+"Yum, this is good food!" Tim says.
+
+"Yes, it is!" Sam says.
+
+"Thank you, mom!" they both say.
+
+"You're welcome, boys!" mom says. "And thank you, grandpa, for playing with them!"
+
+"My pleasure, dear!" grandpa says. "They are such good boys!"
+
+After they finish eating, they go back to their room. They want to play some more. But grandpa is tired. He lays down on the bed and closes his eyes.
+
+"Grandpa, are you sleepy?" Tim asks.
+
+"Yes, I am, Tim!" grandpa says. "I had a lot of fun with you, but now I need a nap!"
+
+"OK, grandpa!" Tim says. "We will be quiet and let you sleep!"
+
+"Yes, grandpa!" Sam says. "We love you!"
+
+"I love you too, boys!" grandpa says. He gives them a kiss and falls asleep.
+
+Tim and Sam smile. They love their grandpa. They play with their toys softly and watch him sleep. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom were playing with their toy train in the garden. They liked to make the train go fast and slow, and make noises like "choo-choo" and "whistle". They had a lot of fun with their train.
+
+But one day, the train stopped working. Lily and Tom tried to push it, but it did not move. They looked at the train and saw that it had no coal. Coal was the black stuff that made the train go. They were sad and did not know what to do.
+
+Then they saw their dad coming home from work. He was a miner, and he worked with coal. He had a big bag of coal on his shoulder. Lily and Tom ran to him and asked him for some coal.
+
+"Dad, dad, can we have some coal for our train? It stopped working and we want to play with it," they said.
+
+"Sure, my brave kids, you can have some coal. But you have to be careful, coal is dirty and can make you cough. And you have to fix your train first. Do you know how to fix it?" he asked.
+
+Lily and Tom nodded. They had seen their dad fix things before. He gave them a small hammer, a screwdriver, and some oil. He showed them how to open the train and put some coal in it. He also showed them how to tighten the screws and oil the wheels.
+
