One day, they found a shiny key in the box. They wondered what it could open. + +"Maybe it opens a treasure chest!" Ben said. + +"Or a secret door!" Lily said. + +They ran around the garden, trying the key on different things. They tried the gate, the shed, the birdhouse, but nothing worked. They were about to give up when they saw the vegetable patch. + +"Look, there's a lock on the fence!" Ben said. + +"Let's try it!" Lily said. + +They ran to the fence and put the key in the lock. It turned and clicked. They opened the fence and went inside. They saw many vegetables growing in neat rows. There were carrots, beans, lettuce, and more. + +"Wow, these are Mommy's vegetables!" Ben said. + +"Can we pick some?" Lily said. + +They started to pull out some vegetables and put them in their pockets. They thought they were having fun, but they did not know they were making a mess. + +Suddenly, they heard Mommy's voice. + +"Ben! Lily! What are you doing?" Mommy said. + +She saw them in the vegetable patch, with dirt and leaves all over them. She saw the broken plants and the missing vegetables. She was very angry. + +"Mommy, we found a key and we opened the fence!" Ben said. + +"We wanted to see the vegetables!" Lily said. + +Mommy took the key from them and locked the fence again. + +"This is not a toy, this is a special key for the vegetable patch. You should not take things that are not yours. You should not ruin the vegetables that I worked hard to grow. You should not go into places where you are not allowed. You should ask before you touch anything. Do you understand?" Mommy said. + +Ben and Lily felt sorry. They nodded and said, "Yes, Mommy." + +Mommy made them help her fix the vegetable patch. She also made them wash their hands and faces. She told them to put the vegetables back in the box and apologize. + +"I'm sorry, Mommy," Ben said. + +"I'm sorry, Mommy," Lily said. + +Mommy hugged them and said, "I forgive you, but you have to be more careful and respectful next time. The vegetables are for eating, not for playing. They are good for you and they taste yummy. Do you want to try some?" + +Ben and Lily agreed. They ate some carrots and beans and lettuce. They liked them and said, "Thank you, Mommy." + +Mommy smiled and said, "You're welcome, my loves. Now, let's go and put away the key and the toys." + +They went back to the box and put everything in its place. They learned their lesson and never touched the key or the fence again. They also learned to love vegetables and to respect Mommy's work. They were happy and good twins. +Lily and Tom were playing in the yard. They had a big ball that they liked to kick and throw. Sometimes they tried to catch the ball when it was high in the air. + +"Look at me, Lily!" Tom said. He kicked the ball very hard and it flew high, high, high. "I can kick the ball higher than you!" + +Lily ran after the ball. She wanted to catch it before it fell. She jumped and reached out her hands. But the ball was too high for her. She missed the ball and fell on the grass. + +"Ha ha, you can't catch the ball, Lily!" Tom laughed. He ran to the ball and picked it up. He held it over his head and smiled. + +Lily was angry. She did not like Tom's laugh. She got up and ran to Tom. She slapped the ball out of his hands. The ball bounced away. + +"Hey, why did you do that, Lily?" Tom said. He was surprised and sad. He liked the ball. + +"Because you are mean, Tom!" Lily said. She crossed her arms and turned away. + +Tom and Lily were not friends anymore. They did not play with the ball or with each other. They sat on the grass and looked at the sky. They wished they had someone to play with. +Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the farm. One day, they see a big pile of wheat. Wheat is a plant that makes bread. + +"Let's play with the wheat!" Tom says. He runs to the pile and throws some wheat in the air. + +"No, Tom, don't do that!" Sue says. She walks to the pile and picks up some wheat. "Wheat is useful. We can make things with it." + +"Like what?" Tom asks. + +"Like a hat, or a basket, or a doll," Sue says. She shows Tom how to twist and weave the wheat. "See? It's fun and easy." + +Tom tries to make something with the wheat. He makes a ball. He likes it. He makes another ball. He makes a lot of balls. + +"Look, Sue, I made balls with the wheat!" Tom says. He throws a ball to Sue. + +Sue catches the ball. She smiles. "That's nice, Tom. You are clever. But do you know what else we can do with the wheat?" + +"What?" Tom asks. + +"We can share it with the animals," Sue says. She points to the cows and the chickens. "They are hungry. They need the wheat to eat and grow. If we give them some wheat, they will be happy and healthy. And they will give us milk and eggs." + +Tom thinks. He likes milk and eggs. He likes the animals. He wants them to be happy and healthy. + +"OK, Sue, let's share the wheat with the animals," Tom says. He picks up some balls and follows Sue. They go to the cows and the chickens. They give them some wheat. The animals eat the wheat. They moo and cluck. They look happy and healthy. + +Tom and Sue feel happy too. They sit on the grass and watch the animals. They hug each other. + +"We did a good thing, Sue," Tom says. + +"Yes, we did, Tom," Sue says. "We learned that wheat is useful. And we learned that sharing is caring." + +The end. +Lily loved her furry cat, Mimi. She liked to hug and kiss her every day. Mimi liked to purr and rub her head on Lily's face. They were best friends. + +One day, Lily's mom said, "Lily, it's time for your haircut. You have too much hair in your eyes. Come with me to the salon." Lily did not want to go. She wanted to stay with Mimi. She said, "No, mom. I like my hair. Mimi likes my hair. Please, no haircut." + +But mom said, "Sorry, Lily. You need a haircut. It will make you look nice and neat. Don't worry, Mimi will wait for you at home. She will still love you. Come on, let's go." She took Lily's hand and led her to the car. + +Lily was sad and scared. She did not like the salon. It was loud and busy. There were many people with scissors and combs. She did not like the scissors. They looked sharp and scary. She did not like the comb. It pulled her hair and made it hurt. She cried and said, "Mom, I want to go home. I want Mimi. Please, stop." + +Mom said, "Shh, Lily. It's okay. It will be over soon. The lady is very nice. She will give you a pretty haircut. You will like it. Look, she has a sticker for you. Do you want a sticker?" Lily looked at the sticker. It was a pink heart. She liked pink hearts. She nodded and took the sticker. She put it on her shirt. + +The lady smiled and said, "Good girl, Lily. You are very brave. You have beautiful hair. I will just trim it a little bit. It will not hurt. You will look like a princess." She took the scissors and the comb and started to cut Lily's hair. She was gentle and careful. She talked to Lily and made her laugh. She said, "Do you like cats, Lily? I have a cat too. His name is Tom. He is very furry and friendly. He likes to play and nap. Do you want to see a picture of him?" She showed Lily a picture of her cat on her phone. Lily liked the picture. She said, "He looks like Mimi. Mimi is my cat. She is my best friend. I kiss her every day." + +The lady said, "That's very sweet, Lily. I kiss Tom every day too. Cats are wonderful pets. They give us a lot of love. I'm sure Mimi misses you. She will be happy to see you when you get home. She will like your haircut. You look very cute and smart. All done." She put down the scissors and the comb. She brushed Lily's hair and showed her a mirror. Lily looked at herself. She saw that her hair was shorter and neater. She could see her eyes and her smile. She liked her haircut. She said, "Thank you, lady. You are very nice. I like my haircut. I look like a princess." + +The lady said, "You're welcome, Lily. You are very welcome. You are a princess. Here, take this lollipop. It's a treat for being a good girl. Have a nice day." She gave Lily a lollipop. It was pink and sweet. Lily liked lollipops. She said, "Thank you, lady. Have a nice day too." She took the lollipop and licked it. + +Mom said, "Lily, you did a great job. I'm so proud of you. You have a beautiful haircut. You look like a princess. Let's go home and show Mimi. She will be so happy to see you. She will give you a big kiss." She hugged and kissed Lily. She paid the lady and thanked her. She took Lily's hand and led her to the car. + +Lily was happy and proud. She had a pretty haircut. She had a sticker and a lollipop. She had a nice mom and a furry cat. She said, "Mom, I love you. I love Mimi. I love my haircut." She smiled and licked her lollipop. + +Mom said, "I love you too, Lily. I love Mimi too. I love your haircut. You are my princess." She smiled and drove home. +Tom likes to ride his bike. He has a red bike with two big wheels and a bell. He rides his bike every day with his dog, Spot. Spot is a black and white dog with a blue collar. Spot likes to run and bark and play. + +One day, Tom and Spot go to the park. They see many flowers and trees and birds. They also see a pond with ducks and fish. Tom and Spot want to see the ducks. They ride and run to the pond. + +But when they get to the pond, they see a big problem. The pond is very smelly. It has green stuff and trash in it. The ducks and fish look sad and sick. Tom and Spot feel sorry for them. They wonder who made the pond so smelly. + +Then they see a man with a big truck. The man is dumping more trash into the pond. He does not care about the ducks and fish. He is very mean and bad. Tom and Spot are angry. They want to stop the man. + +Tom rings his bell and Spot barks loudly. They ride and run to the man. They tell him to stop dumping trash. They tell him to clean the pond. They tell him to be nice to the ducks and fish. The man is surprised and scared. He sees Tom and Spot and the smelly pond. He feels ashamed and sorry. He stops dumping trash. He says he will clean the pond. He says he will be nice to the ducks and fish. + +Tom and Spot are happy. They have saved the pond. They have helped the ducks and fish. They have done a good thing. They ride and run back home. They are very tired and hungry. They eat a big snack and take a nap. They dream of a clean and happy pond. +Lily did not like vegetables. She liked sweet things, like cake and candy. But her mom said she had to eat some vegetables every day, or she would get sick. Lily did not want to get sick, but she also did not want to eat vegetables. + +One day, mom made a big salad for lunch. It had lettuce, carrots, tomatoes, and cucumbers. Lily looked at the salad and made a sour face. She did not want to eat any of it. She pushed her plate away and said, "No, thank you, mom. I do not like salad. I want cake." + +Mom shook her head and said, "No, Lily, you have to eat some salad. It is good for you. It has vitamins and minerals that make you strong and healthy. You can have some cake later, but only if you eat some salad first." + +Lily pouted and said, "But mom, salad is yucky. It is green and crunchy and wet. It does not taste good. It tastes sour. I do not like sour things. I like sweet things." + +Mom smiled and said, "Lily, salad is not yucky. It is yummy. It is fresh and crisp and juicy. It has different flavors that make your mouth happy. You just have to try it. Here, have a bite of this carrot. It is sweet and orange and good for your eyes." + +Mom picked up a carrot and held it in front of Lily's mouth. Lily did not want to eat the carrot, but she did not want to make mom sad. She opened her mouth and took a small bite of the carrot. As soon as she did, she felt a tickle in her nose. She tried to hold it in, but she could not. She sneezed loudly and sprayed the carrot all over the table. + +Mom and Lily both gasped and looked at the mess. Then they started to laugh. Lily said, "Sorry, mom. I guess I am allergic to carrots. They make me sneeze." + +Mom said, "That's okay, Lily. Maybe carrots are not for you. But there are many other vegetables you can try. How about some tomatoes? They are red and sweet and good for your heart." + +Lily looked at the tomatoes and said, "Okay, mom. I will try some tomatoes. But can I have some cake after?" + +Mom said, "Yes, Lily. You can have some cake after. But only if you eat some tomatoes first." + +Lily nodded and said, "Deal, mom. Deal." She picked up a tomato and took a bite. She did not sneeze this time. She smiled and said, "Mmm, this is good. I like tomatoes. They are not sour. They are sweet." + +Mom smiled and said, "I'm glad you like them, Lily. See, vegetables are not so bad. They are good for you and good for your taste buds. Maybe you will like salad after all." + +Lily said, "Maybe, mom. Maybe. But I still like cake more." + +Mom said, "I know, Lily. I know. Me too." +Sara and Ben are friends who like to play with their toys. Sara has a doll that can talk and sing. Ben has a dinosaur that can roar and move. They share their toys and have fun together. + +One day, Sara's doll falls from the table and breaks her arm. Sara is very sad and cries. Ben tries to cheer her up and says, "Don't worry, Sara. I can repair your doll. I have glue and tape and scissors. I can fix her bone and make her arm like new." + +Sara smiles and says, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. Can I play with your dinosaur while you repair my doll?" + +Ben nods and gives Sara his dinosaur. He takes the doll and goes to his room. He finds the glue and tape and scissors and starts to repair the doll's arm. He puts glue on the broken bone and tapes it together. He cuts a piece of cloth and wraps it around the arm. He makes a bandage and a sling for the doll. + +He is very proud of his work and thinks, "I am a good repairer. I can fix anything. Maybe I can fix other toys too. Maybe I can fix my dinosaur and make him roar louder and move faster. Maybe I can make him the best dinosaur ever." + +He looks at his dinosaur and feels envious. He wants to have a better toy than Sara. He decides to take apart his dinosaur and see what is inside. He uses the scissors and cuts the dinosaur's skin. He sees wires and batteries and motors and lights. He thinks, "Wow, this is cool. I can change these things and make my dinosaur better." + +He starts to cut the wires and move the batteries and motors and lights. He does not know what he is doing. He makes a big mess. He breaks his dinosaur. He hears a loud pop and sees smoke. He is scared and cries. + +Sara hears the noise and runs to Ben's room. She sees Ben crying and his dinosaur broken. She is shocked and says, "Ben, what did you do? Why did you break your dinosaur? He was a good toy. He could roar and move. He was your friend." + +Ben feels ashamed and says, "I'm sorry, Sara. I wanted to repair him. I wanted to make him better. I wanted to have a better toy than you. I was envious of your doll. I was stupid and mean. I ruined my dinosaur. I ruined our friendship." + +Sara feels sorry for Ben and says, "Ben, you are not stupid and mean. You are a good friend. You repaired my doll. You made her arm like new. You shared your dinosaur with me. You were kind and generous. You made a mistake. You can learn from it. You can apologize to your dinosaur. You can try to fix him. You can ask for help. You can still be my friend." + +Ben hugs Sara and says, "Thank you, Sara. You are a good friend. You are forgiving and understanding. You helped me. You made me feel better. I will apologize to my dinosaur. I will try to fix him. I will ask for help. I will still be your friend." + +Sara and Ben smile and hug each other. They look at their toys and say, "We love our toys. They are our friends. We will take care of them. We will share them. We will have fun together." +Tim and Mia are twins. They like to play in the garden. One day, they see a new plant in a pot. It is green and has many spikes. + +"What is that?" Tim asks. + +"It is a cactus," Mia says. "Mommy says it is rare. It does not need much water." + +"Can we touch it?" Tim wonders. + +"No, it will hurt you," Mia warns. "The spikes are sharp." + +But Tim is curious. He reaches out his hand to the cactus. He feels a prick on his finger. He cries out loud. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Tim shouts. "It bit me!" + +Mia runs to him. She sees blood on his finger. She hugs him and says sorry. + +"Let's go to Mommy," Mia says. "She will make it better." + +They leave the cactus alone. They learn not to touch it again. They wake up the next day with a band-aid on Tim's finger and a new toy to play with. They are happy. +Tom and Mia went to the zoo with Mom and Dad. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and giraffes. But Tom's favorite animal was the elephant. He liked how big and strong it was. He wanted to touch its trunk and ears. + +"Can I go near the elephant, Mom?" Tom asked. + +"No, Tom, it's not safe. The elephant might be scared or angry. You have to stay behind the fence," Mom said. + +"But why, Mom? The elephant looks nice and friendly. Maybe it wants to play with me," Tom said. + +Mom shook her head. "The elephant is not a toy, Tom. It's a wild animal. It can hurt you with its tusks or feet. You have to respect it and keep your distance," she said. + +Tom was not happy. He wanted to be friends with the elephant. He looked at the elephant and waved his hand. The elephant looked at him and shrugged its shoulders. It did not seem to care about Tom. + +"See, Mom, the elephant is not scared or angry. It just shrugged. It means it doesn't mind me," Tom said. + +Mom smiled. "Maybe you're right, Tom. Maybe the elephant is just curious about you. But that doesn't mean you can go near it. You have to follow the rules of the zoo and stay safe. Maybe you can give the elephant a carrot or a banana from the vending machine. That's a nice way to say hello," she said. + +Tom thought about it. He decided to listen to Mom. He asked Dad for some coins and bought a carrot from the vending machine. He threw the carrot over the fence to the elephant. The elephant picked it up with its trunk and ate it. Then it made a loud noise with its mouth. It sounded like a thank you. + +Tom was happy. He felt like he made a new friend. He clapped his hands and said, "Bye, elephant. You are very strong and cool. I hope to see you again." The elephant nodded its head and said, "Bye, Tom. You are very kind and brave. I hope to see you again too." +Ben and Lily are playing in the park. They see a big pile of leaves. They want to jump in it. + +"Let's gather the leaves and make a big bed!" Ben says. + +"OK!" Lily says. They run to the pile and start to pick up the leaves. They carry them to a clear spot and put them down. + +They make a big bed of leaves. They lie down on it and giggle. + +"Look, there is a bird!" Lily says. She points to the sky. She sees a blue bird flying. + +"Wow, it is pretty!" Ben says. He points too. + +But then they hear a loud noise. They look up and see a plane. It is flying very low. It has smoke coming out of it. It looks broken. + +"Oh no, the plane is in trouble!" Ben says. He feels scared. + +"Maybe it will crash!" Lily says. She feels scared too. + +They get up from the bed of leaves. They run to their mom and dad. They hug them. + +"Mom, dad, did you see the plane?" Ben asks. + +"Yes, we did. It is broken. But don't worry, it will land safely. The pilot is very brave." Mom says. + +"Really?" Lily asks. + +"Yes, really. Come on, let's go home. We will watch the news and see what happened." Dad says. + +They walk to the car. They hold their mom and dad's hands. They still feel scared, but they also feel safe. They hope the pilot is OK. They hope the bird is OK too. +Lila and Ben went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, like monkeys, lions, and giraffes. They were very happy and excited. + +Then they came to the rhinoceros. It was big and gray, with a long horn on its nose. Lila and Ben wanted to touch it, but their mom said no. + +"Rhinoceros can be dangerous," she said. "They can hurt you with their horn. You have to stay behind the fence and be careful." + +But Ben was careless. He did not listen to his mom. He climbed over the fence and ran to the rhinoceros. He wanted to poke it with his finger. + +"Ben, stop!" Lila shouted. "Come back!" + +But it was too late. The rhinoceros saw Ben and got angry. It snorted and charged at him. Ben was scared and tried to run away, but he tripped and fell. + +"Help!" he cried. + +Lila and their mom ran to him. They grabbed him and pulled him back over the fence. The rhinoceros stopped and went back to its grass. + +"Ben, are you okay?" Lila asked. + +"I'm okay," Ben said. "But I'm sorry. I was silly and bad. I should have listened to mom." + +Their mom hugged him and said, "I'm glad you're okay, Ben. But you have to be more careful. Rhinoceros are not toys. They are wild animals. You have to respect them and keep a safe distance." + +Ben nodded and said, "I understand, mom. I won't do it again. I love you." + +"I love you too, Ben," their mom said. "And I love you, Lila. You are a good sister. You helped your brother." + +Lila smiled and said, "I love you too, mom. And I love you, Ben. You are a good brother. You learned your lesson." + +They hugged each other and then went to see the other animals. They had a fun day at the zoo, but they never forgot the rhinoceros. +Anna was an adventurous girl who liked to explore new places. One day, she found a big curtain in the living room that she had never seen before. She wondered what was behind it and decided to peek. + +She pulled the curtain aside and saw a bright window with a beautiful view of the garden. She saw flowers, trees, birds and butterflies. She also saw a small table with a tea set and a teddy bear. She was curious and wanted to play. + +She stepped behind the curtain and walked towards the table. She picked up the teddy bear and said, "Hello, I'm Anna. Do you want to have tea with me?" The teddy bear nodded and smiled. Anna was happy and poured some tea for both of them. + +Suddenly, she heard a voice behind her. It was her mother, who had come to look for her. She said, "Anna, where are you? I have a surprise for you." Anna turned around and saw her mother holding a big box with a bow. She was excited and ran to her mother. + +Her mother hugged her and said, "Happy birthday, my sweet girl. This is your present. I hope you like it." She opened the box and showed Anna a beautiful dress with a matching hat. Anna gasped and clapped her hands. She loved the dress and the hat. She said, "Thank you, mommy. You are the best. Can I try it on?" + +Her mother nodded and said, "Of course, you can. But first, let me introduce you to someone. This is Mr. Teddy, your new friend. He was waiting for you behind the curtain. He is very kind and adventurous, just like you. He wants to play with you and have tea with you. Do you want to welcome him?" Anna smiled and said, "Yes, I do. Hello, Mr. Teddy. I'm Anna. I'm happy to meet you. You are very cute and soft. Do you want to be my friend?" Mr. Teddy nodded and said, "Yes, I do. I'm happy to meet you too. You are very pretty and smart. I want to be your friend." + +Anna hugged Mr. Teddy and said, "Thank you, mommy. This is the best birthday ever. I have a new dress, a new hat and a new friend. I love you, mommy." Her mother kissed her and said, "I love you too, Anna. You are my precious girl. Now, let's go and show your father and your friends your new look. They are waiting for you in the kitchen. They have a cake and balloons for you. Are you ready?" Anna nodded and said, "Yes, I am. Let's go, mommy. And let's bring Mr. Teddy with us. He is part of the family now." Her mother smiled and said, "Yes, he is. Let's go, Anna. And let's have fun." They walked out of the living room, holding hands and holding Mr. Teddy. They were happy and ready to celebrate. +Sara loved to paint. She had many colors and brushes and papers. She liked to paint animals and flowers and trees. She wanted to paint a ranch, like the one she saw on TV. A ranch had cows and horses and a big house. + +She asked her mom if she could paint a ranch. Her mom said yes, but she had to be careful. She had to paint on the paper, not on the wall or the floor or the couch. Sara said okay, and went to her room with her paints. + +She started to paint a ranch. She painted a blue sky and a green grass. She painted a brown house and a red barn. She painted some black and white cows and some brown and white horses. She was very happy with her ranch. She wanted to show it to her mom. + +She picked up her paper and ran to the living room. But she did not see the rug on the floor. She tripped and fell. Her paper flew in the air. Her paints spilled everywhere. She started to cry. + +Her mom heard her cry and came to see what happened. She saw the mess and the paper. She was not happy. She said, "Sara, what did you do? You made a big mess. You did not listen to me. You have to clean this up." + +Sara said, "I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to show you my ranch. I worked very hard on it. It is very interesting. Look, it has cows and horses and a house and a barn." + +Her mom looked at the paper. She saw the ranch. She saw the colors and the shapes. She saw how Sara tried to paint what she saw on TV. She smiled. She said, "Sara, your ranch is very interesting. You are very good at painting. But you have to be more careful. You have to watch where you are going. You have to paint on the paper, not on the rug or the wall or the floor or the couch." + +Sara said, "I know, mom. I'm sorry. I will be more careful. I will clean this up. Can I keep my ranch?" + +Her mom said, "Yes, you can keep your ranch. But first, you have to help me clean this up. Then, we can hang your ranch on the fridge. How does that sound?" + +Sara said, "That sounds good, mom. Thank you. I love you." + +Her mom said, "I love you too, Sara. Now, let's get to work." +Sara liked to write. She had a big book and a blue pen. She wrote her name, and her mom's name, and her cat's name. She wrote many words and drew many pictures. + +One day, she saw an orange on the table. She wanted to write about the orange. She picked up the orange and smelled it. It was sweet and fresh. She took a bite and felt the juice. It was sour and wet. She liked the orange. + +She put the orange on her book and wrote: "This is an orange. It is sweet and sour. It is round and orange. I like it." She was very clever. + +But then, her brother Tom came in. He was hungry and he saw the orange. He did not see the book. He grabbed the orange and peeled it. He ate it in big chunks. + +Sara was angry. She shouted: "Tom, that was my orange! I was writing about it! You are bad!" + +Tom was surprised. He looked at the book and saw the words and the picture. He felt sorry. He said: "Sara, I am sorry. I did not know. You are very clever. You can write very well. Can I write with you?" + +Sara was still angry, but she was also happy. She liked her brother. She said: "OK, Tom. You can write with me. But next time, ask me first. And share the orange." + +They hugged and smiled. They wrote and drew together. They were happy. +Mia and Ben wanted to decorate their room for the party. They had many colors of paper, scissors, glue and stickers. They cut and glued and stuck the paper on the walls and the door. They made flowers, stars, hearts and circles. + +But Ben was not happy. He saw that Mia's paper shapes were more original than his. She made a paper goat with horns and a beard. She made a paper sun with rays and a smile. She made a paper cloud with raindrops and a bow. Ben thought his shapes were boring and plain. + +"Your shapes are better than mine," he said to Mia. "Can I have some of your paper?" + +"No, you can't," Mia said. "This is my paper. You have your own paper. Go and make your own shapes." + +Ben was angry and sad. He wanted to have original shapes too. He looked around the room and saw a real goat outside the window. The goat was eating grass and flowers. Ben had an idea. He ran outside and grabbed the goat by the horns. He dragged the goat to his room. + +"Look, Mia, look!" he shouted. "I have a real goat to decorate our room. This is the most original shape ever!" + +Mia was shocked and scared. She saw the goat kick and bleat and chew on the paper shapes. The goat tore the paper flowers, stars, hearts and circles. The goat made a big mess in the room. + +"Ben, what have you done?" Mia cried. "You have ruined our decorations. You have scared the goat. You have been very naughty and selfish." + +Ben realized his mistake. He felt sorry and ashamed. He let go of the goat and tried to fix the paper shapes. But it was too late. The paper was ripped and dirty. The goat ran away. + +"I'm sorry, Mia, I'm sorry," he said. "I was jealous of your shapes. I wanted to have original shapes too. But I was wrong. I should have been happy with what I had. I should have been kind and respectful to you and the goat." + +Mia forgave Ben. She hugged him and said, "It's okay, Ben, it's okay. We can still have a party. We can still have fun. We can make new shapes together. We can share our paper and our ideas. We can be original and creative in our own ways." + +Ben and Mia learned a lesson. They learned to be happy with what they have. They learned to be kind and respectful to others. They learned to be original and creative in their own ways. They decorated their room again with new paper shapes. They had a party and invited their friends. They had a lot of fun. +Tom and Sue like to play in the garden. They have a big box of seeds. They want to grow flowers and fruits. They dig holes in the ground and put the seeds in. They cover the seeds with dirt and water them. + +Every day, they check the seeds. They see green shoots coming out of the ground. They are happy. They see the shoots grow bigger and bigger. They see leaves and buds and colors. They are very happy. + +One day, they see something funny. One of the shoots has a big round thing on top. It is not a flower or a fruit. It is a pumpkin. They laugh. They do not know how a pumpkin seed got in their box. They think it is a surprise. They hug the pumpkin. They want to make a pie. They are very very happy. +Lily and Max are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a big bench in the park. It is brown and has four legs. Lily and Max wonder what it is for. + +They run to the bench and climb on it. They sit on the bench and look around. They see birds and trees and flowers. They see other kids and dogs and bikes. They see a big pond with ducks and fish. They think the bench is very fun. + +Mom and dad come to the bench and sit with them. They hug Lily and Max and tell them they love them. They give them some cookies and juice. They say they are lucky to have such a nice bench and such a nice park. Lily and Max agree. They are lucky to have a bench, a park, and a mom and dad. They smile and eat their cookies. They are happy. +Tom and Ann are friends. They like to play and share. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big table with many pies. The pies smell good and look yummy. + +A lady says, "These pies are for a contest. You can look, but do not touch." Tom and Ann nod. They are good kids. They do not touch the pies. They just look and smile. + +But Sam is not a good kid. He is sneaky and greedy. He sees a pie that looks very interesting. It has red and blue berries on top. He wants to eat it. He does not listen to the lady. He waits until no one is looking. Then he grabs the pie and runs away. + +But he does not run far. He trips on a rock and falls down. The pie flies out of his hands and lands on his face. He is covered in berries and cream. He cries and cries. + +Tom and Ann see what happens. They feel sorry for Sam. They go to him and help him get up. They wipe his face with a napkin. They say, "Sam, you should not take things that are not yours. That is not nice. That is wrong. You should say sorry to the lady and the pie maker." + +Sam feels ashamed. He knows he did a bad thing. He says sorry to Tom and Ann. He says sorry to the lady and the pie maker. He says he will not do it again. He learns his lesson. + +The lady and the pie maker are kind. They forgive Sam. They say, "We are glad you are sorry. We hope you will be a good kid from now on. Here, you can have a slice of pie. But only one. And you have to share with Tom and Ann. They are your friends. They helped you." + +Sam says thank you. He shares the pie with Tom and Ann. They all eat the pie and smile. The pie is delicious. They are happy. They are friends. +Ben likes to have fun with his toys. He has a lot of cars, trains, planes and boats. He likes to make them zoom and beep and fly and splash. He has a big box where he keeps them all. + +One day, Ben finds a new toy in his box. It is an alarm. It is red and shiny and has a button. Ben thinks it is a fancy toy. He presses the button and the alarm makes a loud noise. Ben likes the noise. He thinks it is funny. + +He takes the alarm to his room and plays with it. He puts it on his bed, on his chair, on his shelf. He presses the button and the alarm makes a loud noise. He laughs and claps his hands. + +But his mom and dad do not like the noise. They are in the kitchen, making lunch. They hear the alarm and they think something is wrong. They run to Ben's room and see him with the alarm. They are not happy. + +"Ben, what are you doing?" his mom asks. "Why are you making so much noise?" + +"Mom, look!" Ben says. "I have a fancy toy. It is an alarm. It makes a loud noise. It is fun!" + +"Ben, that is not a toy. That is a fire alarm. It is for emergencies. You should not play with it. It is dangerous. You could scare people or start a fire. You have to give it back to us," his dad says. + +Ben feels sad. He likes the alarm. He does not want to give it back. He thinks it is a fancy toy. + +"Please, can I keep it?" he asks. "I will be careful. I will not press the button. I will just look at it." + +"No, Ben. You cannot keep it. It is not a toy. It is a fire alarm. You have to give it back to us. We will find you another toy. A safer toy. A quieter toy. A toy that is more fun," his mom says. + +Ben sighs. He gives the alarm to his dad. He says sorry. He hugs his mom and dad. They hug him back. They love him. + +They go to the kitchen and have lunch. They have sandwiches and juice and cookies. Ben forgets about the alarm. He has fun with his mom and dad. He tells them about his cars, trains, planes and boats. He has a lot of toys. He is happy. +Lily was a lazy cat. She liked to sleep all day in a warm and cozy barrel. She did not like to play with the other cats or chase the mice. She only wanted to eat and nap. + +One day, a big dog came to the farm. He was looking for a place to hide from the rain. He saw the barrel and thought it was a good spot. He did not know that Lily was inside. + +He entered the barrel and pushed Lily out. Lily was very angry and scared. She hissed and scratched at the dog. The dog barked and bit at Lily. They made a lot of noise. + +The farmer heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. He saw the dog and the cat fighting in the barrel. He shooed the dog away and picked up Lily. He said, "Poor Lily, you are wet and hurt. Come with me, I will take care of you." + +He took Lily to his house and gave her some milk and a blanket. He cleaned her wounds and stroked her fur. Lily felt better and thanked the farmer. She decided that maybe being lazy was not so good. She wanted to make friends with the other cats and have some fun. She learned that sometimes it is good to leave the barrel and try new things. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys. One day, they find a big box in the park. They open the box and see many things inside. They see a green scale, a red ball, a blue car, and a yellow puzzle. + +"Wow, look at all these toys!" Lily says. "Can we play with them?" + +"Yes, let's play!" Ben says. "I want to play with the car." + +"I want to play with the puzzle," Lily says. "It looks fun." + +They take out the toys and start to play. Ben zooms the car around the grass. Lily tries to solve the puzzle. She puts the pieces together, but they do not fit. + +"Ben, can you help me?" Lily asks. "This puzzle is hard." + +"OK, I will help you," Ben says. He stops the car and goes to Lily. He looks at the puzzle. He sees a picture of a fish on the box. + +"Look, Lily, this is a fish puzzle," Ben says. "We need to find the pieces that look like a fish." + +They look at the pieces and find the ones that have eyes, fins, and scales. They put them together and make a fish. + +"Yay, we solved the puzzle!" Lily says. "It is a pretty fish. It has green scales." + +"Yes, it is a pretty fish," Ben says. "It matches the green scale in the box." + +They smile and hug. They are happy. They play with the other toys and have fun. They are good friends. +Lily and Tom are playing with their toy cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They like to race them on the floor and make loud noises. + +"Look at my red car!" Tom says. "It is very fast and strong. It can go over anything." + +"I like your red car, but I like my pink car more." Lily says. "It is very pretty and sweet. It has flowers on it." + +They put their cars next to each other and compare them. They see that Tom's car has four big wheels and Lily's car has four small wheels. + +"Your wheels are too small." Tom says. "They do not fit your car. They are silly." + +"No, they are not." Lily says. "They fit my car very well. They are cute." + +They start to argue about whose wheels are better. They do not want to share their cars or play together. + +Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She sees their cars and their faces. + +"Why are you fighting?" Mom asks. "Your cars are both nice. They have different wheels, but that is okay. You can have fun with different wheels." + +She picks up a blue car and shows it to them. It has three wheels, one big and two small. + +"Look at this car." Mom says. "It has three wheels, not four. It is different from your cars, but it is still a car. It can still race and make noises. Do you like it?" + +Lily and Tom look at the blue car. They think it is funny and interesting. They nod and smile. + +"Yes, we like it." They say. + +Mom gives them the blue car and hugs them. + +"Good." Mom says. "Now you can play with all your cars and share them. Different wheels can be fun. They can make your cars special." + +Lily and Tom agree. They thank Mom and take the blue car. They put it with their other cars and start to play again. They race and make noises and have fun. They do not fight anymore. They like different wheels. +Anna and Ben are playing in the kitchen. They see a big yellow fruit on the table. Anna picks it up and smells it. + +"What is this?" she asks Ben. + +"It is a lemon," Ben says. "Mommy uses it to make juice and cake." + +Anna is curious. She takes a bite of the lemon. She makes a funny face and spits it out. + +"Yuck! It is sour!" she says. + +Ben laughs. He takes the lemon from Anna and squeezes it over a glass. He fills the glass with water and adds some sugar. He stirs it with a spoon. + +"Here, try this," he says. "It is lemonade. It is sweet and good." + +Anna takes a sip of the lemonade. She smiles and nods. + +"Mmm, it is good!" she says. + +Ben smiles too. He feels happy and useful. He made something nice for his sister. + +They drink the lemonade and share a cookie. They hug each other and say thank you. + +The end. +Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their toys in their room. But sometimes they make too much noise and their mom tells them to be quiet. + +One day, they find a big box in the closet. They open it and see many old things. They see a hat, a book, a ball, and a top. A top is a toy that spins and makes a sound. + +"Look, a top!" Tom says. He takes the top and spins it on the floor. It makes a whirring sound and moves around. + +"Wow, that's cool!" Sam says. He wants to try the top too. He reaches for it, but Tom pulls it away. + +"No, it's mine!" Tom says. He holds the top in his hand and runs to the other side of the room. + +"Give it to me!" Sam says. He runs after Tom and tries to grab the top. They start to fight and shout. + +"Boys, boys, what's going on?" their mom says. She comes into the room and sees them fighting over the top. She is not happy. + +"Mom, he took my top!" Tom says. + +"Mom, he won't share!" Sam says. + +"Stop it, both of you!" their mom says. "You need to mind your manners and share your toys. The top is not yours, it's from the box. You can take turns to play with it, or find something else to play with. And be quiet, please. Your dad is working in the other room." + +Tom and Sam look at each other and feel sorry. They say sorry to their mom and to each other. They decide to share the top and play nicely. They spin the top and watch it together. They are quiet and happy. Their mom smiles and leaves them to play. +Lily and Max were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were lions and roar at each other. They also liked to dig in the dirt and find worms and stones. + +One day, they saw a big cloud of smoke in the sky. It was black and gray and smelled bad. They wondered what it was. They ran to their mom and asked her. + +"That's a fire, my darlings," mom said. "It's very far away, but we can see it from here. Sometimes, fires make a lot of smoke and ash. Ash is like dust, but darker and hotter. We have to be careful with fire, because it can hurt us and our things." + +Lily and Max nodded. They knew fire was dangerous. They had seen it on candles and matches, but mom always told them not to touch them. They went back to the garden, but they were not in the mood to play lions anymore. They wanted to see the fire. + +They climbed on the fence and looked at the smoke. It was getting bigger and closer. They heard a loud noise, like a roar, but not like a lion. It was like a monster. + +"Max, I'm scared," Lily said. "What if the fire comes here?" + +"Don't worry, Lily," Max said. "Mom will protect us. She said the fire is far away. Maybe it will go away soon." + +But the fire did not go away. It came closer and closer, until they could see the flames and the sparks. They could feel the heat and the wind. They saw people and cars running away from the fire. They saw houses and trees burning and falling. + +"Mom, mom, help!" Lily and Max cried. They ran to the house, where mom was waiting for them. She had packed some bags and clothes. She had the car keys and the phone. + +"Come on, my darlings, we have to go," mom said. "The fire is too close. We have to find a safe place. We have to leave our home for a while." + +Lily and Max were sad and scared. They did not want to leave their home. They did not want to lose their toys and books and pictures. They did not want to see their garden turn into ash. + +But they trusted mom. They followed her to the car. They buckled their seat belts. They drove away from the fire, as fast as they could. + +They looked back at their home, one last time. They saw the fire reach the fence. They saw the flames lick the roof. They saw the windows break and the door open. + +They heard a roar, like a lion, but not like a lion. It was like a goodbye. +Sara was a big girl who liked to dress up. She had many pretty things in her box, like hats, scarves, and necklaces. But her favorite thing was a bracelet that her grandma gave her. It was shiny and colorful, and it made a nice sound when she moved her arm. + +One day, Sara went to the park with her mom and dad. She wore her bracelet and felt very happy. She saw some other kids playing on the swings and slides, and she wanted to join them. She ran to the swings and waited for her turn. + +"Hi, I'm Lily," said a girl who was next to her. "What's your name?" + +"I'm Sara," said Sara. "Do you want to be my friend?" + +"Sure," said Lily. "You have a very pretty bracelet. Where did you get it?" + +"My grandma gave it to me," said Sara. "She said it was special and I should take good care of it." + +"I like it a lot," said Lily. "Can I touch it?" + +Sara nodded and held out her arm. Lily admired the bracelet and smiled. + +"It's so shiny and colorful," said Lily. "It makes a nice sound, too. You're very lucky to have it." + +"Thank you," said Sara. "You're very nice to say that. Do you want to play on the slide with me?" + +"Yes, let's go," said Lily. They ran to the slide and had fun together. + +Sara was glad that she met Lily. She liked her new friend, and she liked to share her bracelet. She thought that her grandma would be happy, too. She hugged her bracelet and smiled. +Anna and Ben like to run. They run in the park, in the yard, and in the house. Mom and Dad do not like when they run in the house. They say it is too messy and noisy. + +One day, Anna and Ben have a race in the house. They run from the kitchen to the living room and back. They knock over chairs, pillows, and toys. They make a big mess. Mom and Dad are not happy. They tell Anna and Ben to stop and clean up. + +Anna and Ben do not want to clean up. They want to keep racing. They say it is fun and they are fast. Mom and Dad say they can race outside, but not inside. They say they have to accept the rules and be good. + +Anna and Ben think for a moment. They like to race, but they also love Mom and Dad. They do not want to make them mad. They decide to accept the rules and clean up. They say sorry to Mom and Dad and give them hugs. Mom and Dad smile and hug them back. + +They finish cleaning up and go outside. They have a race in the yard. They run and laugh and have fun. They are still messy, but Mom and Dad do not mind. They watch them and cheer them on. They are proud of Anna and Ben for being good and accepting the rules. +Tom and Anna are twins. They like to play with their toys, but sometimes they fight. Today, they have a big box of blocks. They want to build different things with the blocks. + +Tom says, "I want to make a house. A house is good. You help me make a house." + +Anna says, "No, I want to make a train. A train is better. You help me make a train." + +Tom and Anna do not agree. They have different opinions. They start to pull the blocks from each other. They make a mess. + +Mom comes in and sees the mess. She is not happy. She says, "Stop fighting, Tom and Anna. You need to share the blocks. You can take turns to make what you want. Or you can make something together. But you cannot fight." + +Tom and Anna are restless. They do not want to share. They do not want to take turns. They do not want to make something together. They want to make what they want. + +Mom says, "If you cannot play nicely, you have to put the blocks away. No more blocks for today. You can play with something else." + +Tom and Anna do not like this. They do not want to put the blocks away. They want to play with the blocks. But they do not want to make Mom more angry. They start to put the blocks back in the box. They are sad and quiet. + +Mom says, "I'm sorry, Tom and Anna. I know you like the blocks. But you have to learn to play together. Maybe tomorrow you can try again. And maybe you can find a way to make both a house and a train. That would be fun." + +Tom and Anna nod. They hope tomorrow will be better. They hug Mom and say, "We love you, Mom. We are sorry." + +Mom hugs them back and says, "I love you, too. And I'm proud of you for putting the blocks away. Now, let's go and find something else to play with. How about a puzzle or a book?" + +Tom and Anna smile. They like puzzles and books. They follow Mom to the living room. They forget about the blocks for now. They are happy again. +Ben and Sam were best friends. They liked to play baseball in the park. One day, they found a shiny new baseball in the grass. Ben wanted to keep it, but Sam said they should share it. + +"No, it is mine!" Ben shouted. "I saw it first!" + +"That is not fair!" Sam cried. "We are friends, we should play together!" + +Ben did not listen. He ran away with the baseball. He wanted to hide it from Sam. He dug a hole under a big tree and buried the baseball. He smiled and thought he was clever. + +But when he came back to the park, he saw Sam playing with another boy. They had a different baseball and they looked happy. Ben felt lonely and sad. He wanted to play with Sam, but Sam did not want to play with him. Sam was angry with Ben for being selfish. + +Ben realized he had made a mistake. He ran to the tree and dug up the baseball. He ran to Sam and said he was sorry. + +"Sam, I am sorry I took the baseball. It was not nice of me. Can we be friends again?" Ben asked. + +Sam looked at Ben and saw he was sincere. He smiled and said he forgave him. + +"Sure, Ben. We can be friends again. But you have to share the baseball with me and the other boy. His name is Tom and he is very attractive. He has blue eyes and curly hair. Do you want to play with us?" Sam asked. + +Ben nodded and said he did. He gave the baseball to Sam and they joined Tom. They played baseball and had fun. Ben learned that sharing is better than hiding. He was happy he had a good friend like Sam. And he also liked Tom, who was very attractive. +Jill liked to play with yarn. She had many colors of yarn in her box. She made hats and scarves and dolls with yarn. She was very good at it. + +One day, she wanted to make a big blanket with yarn. She took out all her yarn and put it on the floor. She started to tie the yarn together. She wanted to make a rainbow blanket. + +But then, her little brother Tom came in.

She saw Jill crying. + +She said, "Tom, that is not nice. You should not take Jill's yarn. She was making something with it. You should say sorry and help her clean up." + +Tom looked at Mom and felt bad. He realized he was wrong. He said, "Sorry, Jill. I was just having fun. I didn't mean to make you sad. Here, take your yarn back." + +Jill stopped crying and smiled. She said, "Thank you, Tom. I forgive you. Do you want to help me make the blanket?" + +Tom nodded and said, "Yes, I do. That sounds fun. Can I choose a color?" + +Jill said, "Sure, you can. Let's make the blanket together." + +Mom smiled and said, "That's very nice of you, Jill and Tom. I'm proud of you. You are good siblings.

Can you be my friends?" + +Lily and Ben are surprised and excited. They want to write back to Sam. They look for a pen and a paper, but they don't have any. They think hard. Then they have an idea. They use a stick to draw on the sand. They write: "Hello, Sam. We are Lily and Ben. We live near the beach. We like to collect shells.

Tom said. "Let's go down and play there." + +"OK, but we have to be back before dark," Lily said. "Mom and Dad will be worried." + +They ran down the hill and into the valley. They saw a stream, a bridge, and a pond. They had fun splashing, jumping, and picking flowers.

He had followed their tracks and found them in the valley. + +"Dad!" They shouted. They ran to him and hugged him. They were happy to see him. + +"I'm so glad I found you," Dad said.

"We just wanted to see the valley. It was so beautiful." + +"I know, but you have to be careful," Dad said. "Come on, let's go home. It's getting late and you must be tired." + +They nodded. They were tired. They followed Dad back to the hill. They looked at the valley one last time. They liked it, but they also liked their home. They recognized it from far away. It had a light in the window and smoke in the chimney. It was warm and cozy. They smiled. They were happy to go home. +Lily was very happy. It was her birthday and she had a big present. She did not know what was inside, but she hoped it was a doll. She loved dolls very much. + +She put the present on the table and went to play with her friends. She did not see Tom, who was very mean. He wanted the present for himself. He did not have any presents, because he was always bad. + +Tom waited until no one was looking. Then he ran to the table and took the present. He ran away very fast. He did not care if Lily was sad. He only cared about himself. + +Lily came back to the table and saw that her present was gone. She looked around and saw Tom running with it. She cried very loud. She wanted her present back. She ran after Tom, but he was too fast. + +Tom opened the present and saw a doll.

They tried to reach it, but it was too far. + +"Anna, how can we get the crystal?" Ben said. + +"I don't know, Ben, we have to be patient and think!" Anna said. + +They saw a big ant walking near the crystal. They had an idea. + +"Ben, look, an ant!" Anna said. "Maybe it can help us!" + +They ran to the ant and waved their arms. + +"Hello, ant, can you help us?" Anna said. + +The ant looked at them. It was curious. + +"Who are you?" the ant said. + +"We are Anna and Ben, we are children, but we shrank!" Anna said. "Can you take us to the crystal? It can make us big again!" + +The ant nodded. It was kind. + +"OK, I can help you, but you have to be careful!" the ant said. "The crystal is heavy and there are many dangers in the garden!" + +The ant picked up Anna and Ben and put them on its back. It walked to the crystal.

They filled them with water and cereal and fruit. + +"Look, I made soup!" Tom said, showing Lily his dish. "Do you want some?" + +"Yes, please!" Lily said, taking a spoon. She tasted the soup and made a face. "Yuck! This is not good soup. It is too wet and too sweet. I don't like it." + +Tom felt sad and angry. He liked his soup. He thought Lily was mean. He grabbed his dish and threw it on the floor. The dish broke into pieces. The water and cereal and fruit spilled everywhere. + +"Tom, what did you do?" Lily asked, surprised and scared. She did not like the mess and the noise. + +Mom heard the crash and came to the kitchen. She saw the broken dish and the wet floor and the children. She was not happy. + +"Tom, Lily, what happened here?" Mom asked, sternly. "Why did you break the dish? Why did you make such a mess?" + +Tom and Lily did not know what to say. They felt sorry and ashamed. They started to cry. + +"I'm sorry, Mom," Tom said, between sobs. "I was mad at Lily. She did not like my soup. She hurt my feelings." + +"I'm sorry, Mom," Lily said, also crying. "I did not mean to be mean. I just did not like the soup. It was too wet and too sweet." + +Mom sighed. She knew they were just playing and did not mean to be bad. But they still had to learn to be careful and kind. + +"Tom, Lily, I understand you were playing and you had different tastes. But you should not throw dishes or make a mess. That is not nice or safe. You could hurt yourself or someone else. You have to be gentle and respectful with your things and your friends. Do you understand?" Mom said, softly. + +Tom and Lily nodded. They understood. They felt bad for what they did. + +"Can you say sorry to each other and to me?" Mom asked. + +Tom and Lily looked at each other. They wiped their tears and hugged. + +"I'm sorry, Tom," Lily said. "I should not have said your soup was yuck. I should have said thank you and tried it." + +"I'm sorry, Lily," Tom said. "I should not have thrown the dish. I should have told you how I felt and asked you to be nice." + +"I'm sorry, Mom," they both said. "We should not have broken the dish or made a mess. We should have played slow and careful." + +Mom smiled. She was glad they said sorry and learned their lesson. She hugged them and kissed them. + +"I love you, Tom. I love you, Lily. I forgive you. But you have to help me clean up this mess, okay?" Mom said. + +"Okay, Mom. We love you too. We will help you clean up," Tom and Lily said. + +They got some towels and a broom and a dustpan. They worked together to clean up the broken dish and the wet floor and the spilled food. They were slow and careful. They did not cry or fight anymore. They were happy and proud. Mom was happy and proud too. They finished cleaning and put away their dishes and spoons and cups. They thanked Mom for letting them play in the kitchen. They asked Mom if they could have some real soup for lunch. Mom said yes. They went to the table and waited for Mom to bring the soup. They hoped they would like it. They decided they would say something nice no matter what. They were good children. They learned from their mistake. They loved each other and Mom. The end. +Lily and Max were playing with blocks in the living room. They liked to build towers and bridges and castles. They also liked to knock them down and make loud noises. Mommy was in the kitchen, making lunch. She told them to be careful and not to make a mess. + +Lily saw a shiny thing on the table. It was a lighter that Daddy used to light candles. She wanted to see what it did. She took it and pressed the button. A spark came out of the end. It was pretty and bright. She showed it to Max. + +"Look, Max, a spark!" she said. + +Max was curious. He wanted to try it too. He took the lighter from Lily and pressed the button. Another spark came out. He smiled and pressed it again and again. He liked the sparks. + +"Let's make more sparks!" he said. + +They ran to the couch and pressed the lighter on the cushions. Sparks flew and made little holes. They giggled and pressed it on the rug. Sparks burned and made a smell. They pressed it on the curtains. Sparks caught fire and made a flame. + +"Wow, fire!" they said. + +They did not realize that fire was dangerous. They did not realize that fire could hurt them and the house. They did not realize that Mommy was coming. + +Mommy smelled the smoke and heard the fire alarm. She ran to the living room and saw the fire. She screamed and grabbed Lily and Max. She took them outside and called the firemen. She was angry and scared. + +"Lily, Max, what did you do?" she said. "You could have been hurt! You could have burned the house! You should never play with fire!" + +Lily and Max felt uncomfortable. They knew they did something bad. They were sorry and scared. They hugged Mommy and cried. + +"We're sorry, Mommy, we're sorry!" they said. "We didn't know, we just wanted to see the sparks!" + +Mommy hugged them back and calmed them down. She was glad they were safe. She told them to never touch the lighter again. She told them to always listen to her. She told them to be careful and not to make a mess. +Lily and Max were twins who liked to play and laugh. But they did not like to eat the same meal. Lily liked to chew on carrots and peas, but Max liked to chew on cheese and bread. Every day, their mom made them a different meal, but they always wanted what the other had. + +One day, mom was very busy and tired. She made them the same meal: soup and crackers. Lily and Max looked at their bowls and felt troubled. They did not want to eat soup and crackers. They wanted to eat what they liked. + +"Mom, I want cheese and bread!" Max said. + +"Mom, I want carrots and peas!" Lily said. + +"Sorry, my loves, this is what we have today. You need to eat your soup and crackers. They are good for you and warm you up," mom said. + +Lily and Max frowned and pouted. They did not want to listen to mom. They pushed their bowls away and crossed their arms. + +Mom sighed and felt sad. She wanted them to be happy and healthy. She had an idea. She took out some stickers and a paper. She drew a big smiley face on the paper and put it on the table. + +"Look, this is our happy meal game. If you eat your soup and crackers, you can put a sticker on the smiley face. When the smiley face is full of stickers, you can choose a prize. Maybe a story, or a song, or a hug. What do you think?" mom said. + +Lily and Max looked at the paper and the stickers. They liked stickers. They liked prizes. They looked at each other and nodded. They decided to try the game. They picked up their spoons and started to eat their soup and crackers. They found out they were not so bad. They were warm and tasty. They smiled and put stickers on the smiley face. + +Mom smiled too. She was glad they ate their meal. She hugged them and gave them their prize. They chose a story. Mom read them a story about a rabbit and a turtle who became friends. Lily and Max listened and cuddled. They felt happy and full. They thanked mom and said they loved her. Mom said she loved them too. They all went to bed and had sweet dreams. +Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play with their toys. One day, they found a big box in the garage. They decided to make a boat out of the box and sail in the backyard. + +They cut a hole in the box and put a stick in it. Then they tied a sheet to the stick to make a sail. They also painted the box with colorful paints. They made a flag out of some wool and put it on the top of the stick. + +"Look at our boat!" Ben said. "It is so pretty and fast!" + +"Yes, it is!" Lily said. "Let's go sailing!" + +They put the boat on the grass and climbed inside. They pretended to be pirates and explorers. They sailed to different places and had fun. + +"Ahoy, matey!" Ben said. "We are going to find treasure!" + +"Arrr!" Lily said. "We are the best sailors ever!" + +They sailed until it was time for lunch. Then they got out of the boat and ran to the house. + +"Mom, dad, look at our boat!" they said. "We made it ourselves!" + +Mom and dad smiled and praised them. They said they were very clever and creative. They gave them sandwiches and juice and hugged them. + +Ben and Lily were happy. They loved their boat and their parents. They couldn't wait to sail again. +Lily was a cute girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Anna, who had long hair and a pink dress. Lily always took Anna with her when she went to the park, the store, or the zoo. + +One day, Lily and her mom went to the zoo to see the animals. Lily was very excited to see the lions, the monkeys, and the elephants. She held Anna tightly in her arms as they walked around the zoo. She showed Anna all the animals and told her their names. + +When they came to the snake house, Lily's mom said, "Let's go inside and see the snakes. They are very interesting and colorful." Lily did not like snakes. She thought they were scary and slimy. She did not want to go inside the snake house. She said, "No, Mom, I don't want to see the snakes. They are not cute. They are ugly and mean." + +But her mom did not listen. She said, "Don't be afraid, Lily. The snakes are behind glass. They can't hurt you. Come on, let's go inside." She took Lily's hand and pulled her into the snake house. Lily did not want to go. She tried to pull away, but her mom was stronger. She cried, "No, Mom, no!" + +Inside the snake house, there were many snakes of different sizes, shapes, and colors. They were in glass cells with rocks, plants, and water. Some of them were coiled up, some of them were slithering, and some of them were hissing. Lily did not like any of them. She closed her eyes and hid her face in Anna's hair. + +Then she heard a loud thud. She opened her eyes and saw that one of the snakes had hit the glass with its head. It was a big snake, with black and yellow stripes. It looked angry and hungry. It stared at Lily and Anna with its red eyes. It opened its mouth and showed its sharp teeth. It hissed, "Sssssss!" + +Lily was very scared. She screamed, "Mom, Mom, help! The snake wants to eat me and Anna!" She ran to her mom and hugged her leg. Her mom picked her up and said, "Don't worry, Lily. The snake can't get out of its cell. It can't hurt you or Anna. It's just curious. It's not going to eat you." + +Lily did not believe her mom. She said, "Yes, it is. It is a bad snake. It is not curious. It is hungry. Let's go, Mom. Let's go away from the snake house. I don't like the snake house. I don't like the snakes. I like the cute animals. Let's go see the cute animals." + +Her mom said, "Okay, Lily. We can go see the cute animals. I'm sorry you didn't like the snake house. Maybe when you are older, you will find the snakes interesting and beautiful. But for now, let's go see the cute animals. Which one do you want to see first?" + +Lily said, "I want to see the pandas. They are cute and fluffy. They are not scary and slimy. They are nice and friendly. They eat bamboo and play with each other. They are my favorite animals. Can we see the pandas, Mom?" + +Her mom said, "Yes, Lily. We can see the pandas. They are very cute and fluffy. They are in the next area. Come on, let's go see the pandas." She carried Lily and Anna to the panda enclosure. Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, Mom. I love you. And I love Anna. And I love the pandas. But I don't love the snakes. Never ever." +Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play outside. One day, they saw big clouds in the sky. They were black and scary. + +"Look, Tom, the clouds are black. Do you think it will rain?" Lily asked. + +"I don't know, Lily. Maybe it will, maybe it won't. Let's play anyway. We can run and jump and have fun," Tom said. + +They ran and jumped and had fun. They did not see the raindrops falling from the sky. They did not hear the thunder rumbling. They did not feel the wind blowing. They were too busy playing. + +Soon, they were wet and cold. The rain was heavy and loud. They could not play anymore. + +"Tom, I don't like the rain. It is wet and cold and loud. Let's go home," Lily said. + +"OK, Lily. Let's go home. Maybe the rain will stop soon. Maybe the sun will come out. Maybe we can play again," Tom said. + +They ran to their homes. They said goodbye to each other. They hoped the rain would stop soon. They hoped the sun would come out. They hoped they could play again. + +They did not know that the rain was fair. It was good for the plants and the animals and the earth. It was good for the rainbow and the puddles and the worms. It was good for them too. They would learn that later. +Lily was sick. She had a hot head and a sore throat. Mommy gave her a thermometer to see how hot she was. Lily did not like the thermometer. It was cold and hard in her mouth. She wanted to spit it out. + +"Be a good girl, Lily. Keep the thermometer in your mouth for a little while. Then we will know if you need medicine," Mommy said. + +Lily tried to be a good girl, but she was bored. She looked around her room. She saw her teddy bear, her books, her crayons, and her scissors. She had an idea. She took the thermometer out of her mouth and hid it under her pillow. Then she grabbed her scissors and her teddy bear. + +She cut the teddy bear's fur with the scissors. She made him look funny. She cut his ears, his nose, his eyes, and his mouth. She cut his arms, his legs, his belly, and his tail. She cut and cut and cut. She made a big mess. + +Mommy came back to check on Lily. She saw the mess and the teddy bear. She was shocked. She looked for the thermometer. She found it under the pillow. It was broken. + +"Lily, what did you do? You cut your teddy bear and you broke the thermometer. That was very naughty. You could have hurt yourself or the teddy bear. And now we don't know how hot you are," Mommy said. + +Lily felt sorry. She did not mean to be naughty. She wanted to have fun. She liked her teddy bear. He was charming and soft. She hugged him and cried. + +"I'm sorry, Mommy. I'm sorry, teddy bear. I was sick and bored. I wanted to play. I didn't know the thermometer was important. Please don't be mad at me," Lily said. + +Mommy was not mad. She was sad and worried. She hugged Lily and the teddy bear. She said, "It's okay, Lily. I know you were sick and bored. But you have to be careful with scissors and thermometers. They are not toys. They can be dangerous. And you have to listen to me when I tell you something. I love you and I want you to get better. Now let me get another thermometer and some medicine for you." + +Lily nodded. She said, "I love you, Mommy. And I love you, teddy bear. I'm sorry I cut you. You are still charming to me." +Tom and Mia were twins who liked to play music. Tom had a drum and Mia had a flute. They wanted to show their music to their mom and dad, who were in the kitchen. + +They went to the living room, which was a big chamber with a sofa and a TV. They put their drum and flute on the floor and sat down. They looked at each other and nodded. + +"Ready?" Tom asked. + +"Ready!" Mia answered. + +They started to play their music. Tom banged his drum with his hands and Mia blew her flute with her mouth. They made loud sounds that filled the chamber. They smiled and had fun. + +Their mom and dad heard the music and came to the living room. They saw Tom and Mia playing their music. They were surprised and happy. + +"Wow, you are making music!" their mom said. + +"That's amazing!" their dad said. + +They clapped their hands and cheered. They applauded Tom and Mia for their music. Tom and Mia stopped playing and looked at their mom and dad. They felt proud and happy. + +"Thank you, thank you!" Tom said. + +"We love music!" Mia said. + +They hugged their mom and dad and gave them their drum and flute. They asked them to play with them. Their mom and dad agreed and took the drum and flute. They played music together in the living room. They made loud sounds that filled the chamber. They smiled and had fun. +Ella and Sam were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw an elderly lady walking with a cane. She had a big bag of cookies in her hand. Ella and Sam wanted some cookies, so they ran to the lady and asked her. + +"Please, can we have some cookies?" they said. + +The lady smiled and said, "These cookies are for my grandchildren. They are coming to visit me soon. But I can give you one each, if you are polite and say thank you." + +Ella and Sam nodded and said, "Thank you, thank you!" They took one cookie each and bit into them. They were delicious and sweet. Ella and Sam wanted more, so they reached for the bag. + +"Stop, stop!" the lady said. "You can't have more. That's not fair to my grandchildren. You have to resist your greed and be happy with what you have." + +But Ella and Sam did not listen. They grabbed the bag and ran away. The lady tried to chase them, but she was too slow and tired. She fell down and hurt her knee. She cried out for help. + +Ella and Sam heard her cry and felt sorry. They realized they had been very bad and rude. They ran back to the lady and gave her the bag of cookies. They helped her up and said, "We are sorry, we are sorry! We were greedy and mean. We should have resisted our want and been kind to you. Please forgive us." + +The lady smiled and said, "I forgive you, I forgive you. You are young and still learning. But remember, the world is not only for you. You have to share and care for others, especially the elderly. That's how you can be good and happy." + +Ella and Sam hugged the lady and said, "Thank you, thank you! You are very wise and nice. We will remember your words and be good and happy." + +The lady hugged them back and said, "You are welcome, you are welcome. You are very sweet and brave. I hope you enjoy your cookie and have a nice day." + +The end. +Ben and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. Ben had a cop car and Lily had a doll. Ben liked to make siren noises and drive his cop car around. Lily liked to dress up her doll and pretend she was a princess. + +"Can I use your cop car?" Lily asked Ben. + +"No, it's mine!" Ben said. "You have your doll, I have my cop car." + +"But I want to use it too!" Lily said. "It's not fair!" + +Ben did not want to share his cop car. He thought it was the best toy ever. He drove it away from Lily and hid it behind the couch. + +Lily was sad. She did not like it when Ben was mean to her. She looked around and saw a big book on the shelf. It had a picture of a castle on the cover. She took the book and opened it. She saw many beautiful pictures of rich people and their fancy clothes and jewels. She smiled and showed the book to Ben. + +"Look, Ben, look!" Lily said. "This book has rich people in it. They live in a castle and have lots of things. They are happier than you and me." + +Ben was curious. He left his cop car and came to see the book. He saw the rich people and their castle. He saw their horses and their carriages. He saw their gardens and their fountains. He was amazed. + +"Wow, Lily, wow!" Ben said. "This book is awesome. Can I use it?" + +Lily thought for a moment. She remembered how Ben did not let her use his cop car. She felt angry. But she also felt sorry for him. He looked so interested in the book. She decided to be nice to him. + +"Okay, Ben, okay," Lily said. "You can use the book. But you have to share it with me. And you have to let me use your cop car too." + +Ben agreed. He said he was sorry for being mean to Lily. He gave her his cop car and took the book. They both played with the book and the cop car. They pretended they were rich people and cops. They had fun and laughed together. They were happy. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their toys. They liked to sort their toys by color, shape and size. They had red cars, blue balls, yellow stars and green frogs. They made piles of toys on the grass. + +"Look, I have more balls than you!" Ben said to Lily. + +"No, you don't! I have more stars than you!" Lily said to Ben. + +They counted their toys and saw that they had the same number. They smiled and hugged each other. + +Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was a big storm coming. The sky was dark and the wind was strong. They saw lightning and heard thunder. They were scared. + +"Mommy! Daddy!" they cried. + +They ran to their parents, who were sitting on a bench nearby. Their parents picked them up and hugged them. + +"Don't worry, my loves. We will find a shelter to stay safe." Mommy said. + +They looked around and saw a small hut near the park. It was made of wood and had a door and a window. It looked cozy and warm. + +"Let's go there!" Daddy said. + +They ran to the hut and knocked on the door. A kind lady opened the door and smiled. + +"Hello, who are you?" she asked. + +"We are Lily and Ben and these are our parents. We are looking for a shelter from the storm. Can we stay here for a while?" Mommy said. + +"Of course, you are welcome. Come in, come in." the lady said. + +They entered the hut and saw that it was full of books, toys, pictures and flowers. It smelled nice and felt warm. + +"Wow, this is a nice place!" Lily said. + +"Yes, it is. I live here alone, but I love to have visitors. You can play with my toys and read my books. I have some cookies and milk for you, too." the lady said. + +"Thank you, you are very kind." Ben said. + +They sat on the floor and ate the cookies and drank the milk. They played with the toys and read the books. They talked and laughed with the lady. They forgot about the storm outside. + +They felt happy and safe in the hut. They had found a shelter and a friend. They learned that the world was not always dangerous, but sometimes wonderful. +Sara likes to read novels. Novels are big books with many words and pictures. Sara likes to imagine the stories in her head. She likes to read novels before she sleeps. + +One night, Sara's mom came to her room. She saw Sara holding a novel. She said, "Sara, it is time to sleep. Put the novel away and close your eyes." + +Sara refused. She said, "No, mom. I want to read more. This novel is very interesting. It is about a princess and a dragon and a magic sword." + +Sara's mom was not happy. She said, "Sara, you have to sleep. Reading too much at night is not good for your eyes. You can read the novel tomorrow. Please, listen to me." + +Sara still refused. She said, "No, mom. I want to finish the novel. I want to know what happens to the princess and the dragon and the magic sword. Please, let me read." + +Sara's mom sighed. She knew Sara loved novels. She decided to be gentle. She said, "Sara, I understand. But you cannot read the whole novel tonight. How about this? You can read one more page, and then I will read you a bedtime story. How does that sound?" + +Sara thought for a moment. She liked bedtime stories too. She said, "Okay, mom. That sounds fair. I will read one more page, and then you can read me a bedtime story. Thank you, mom." + +Sara's mom smiled. She said, "You are welcome, Sara. I love you." She kissed Sara on the forehead and waited for her to finish the page.

She liked to do math with her mom and dad and her teacher. She also liked to play with her friends at the park. + +One day, Sara went to the park with her mom. She saw a big swing and wanted to try it. She asked her mom, "Can I swing, please?" + +"Sure, Sara, you can swing. But be careful and hold on tight," her mom said. + +Sara ran to the swing and climbed on. She pushed with her feet and felt the wind in her hair. She swung higher and higher and laughed. She felt happy and free. + +She saw her friend Ben on another swing. He was also clever and liked math. He waved at her and said, "Hi, Sara! Do you want to do math with me?" + +Sara smiled and said, "Yes, Ben, I want to do math with you. But first, let's swing a little more. Swinging is fun!" + +Ben nodded and said, "OK, Sara, let's swing a little more. Then we can do math together. We can count how many times we swing and how high we go. We can also add and take away the swings. That will be fun, too!" + +Sara and Ben swung and swung and did math and had fun. They were clever and happy. They liked math and swinging. They were good friends. +Lily was a poor girl who loved to sing. She had a microphone that her dad gave her before he went away. She sang every day in her room, but she was too shy to sing in front of others. + +One day, a big man came to her school. He said he was looking for singers for a show. He asked the children to come up and sing with his microphone. Lily wanted to try, but she was afraid. + +"Who wants to sing?" the big man asked. + +"I do!" said Tom, who was loud and mean. He grabbed the microphone and sang a bad song. He made fun of Lily and said she was too poor and scared to sing. + +The big man frowned and said, "That was not nice, Tom. Singing is not about being mean. It is about being kind and sharing your voice. Who else wants to sing?" + +Lily felt a warm feeling in her heart. She remembered her dad and his microphone. She raised her hand and said, "I do." + +She walked up to the big man and took the microphone. She sang a beautiful song that made everyone smile. The big man clapped and said, "That was wonderful, Lily. What is your name?" + +Lily smiled and said, "My name is Lily. Thank you for letting me sing." + +The big man said, "You are welcome, Lily. You have a gift. You should sing more often and share it with others. You are not poor, you are rich in spirit." + +Lily felt happy and proud. She learned that singing was not about being loud or mean, but about being kind and brave. She thanked the big man and went back to her seat. She hugged her microphone and thought of her dad. She knew he would be proud of her too. +Ben and Lily were playing with their crayons and paper. They liked to draw many things, like animals, cars, and flowers. They had a big box of crayons with many colors. + +"Look, I made a dog!" Lily said, showing her paper to Ben. "He has brown fur and a red collar." + +"That's nice!" Ben said. "I made a car. It has blue paint and yellow wheels." + +They were having fun, until they saw a bottle on the table. It was black and had a word on it. They did not know what it said. + +"What is this?" Ben asked, picking up the bottle. + +"I don't know," Lily said. "Maybe it's more crayons." + +Ben opened the bottle and saw a black liquid inside. It looked like ink. + +"Let's try it!" Ben said. He dipped his finger in the ink and made a dot on his paper. + +"Wow, it's so dark!" Lily said. She also dipped her finger in the ink and made a dot on her paper. + +They liked the ink. They made more dots and lines and shapes on their papers. They did not see that the ink was bad. It made their papers wet and sticky. It also made their fingers black and dirty. + +"Uh-oh," Ben said, looking at his hands. "How do we clean this?" + +"I don't know," Lily said, looking at her hands. "Maybe we can wash them." + +They ran to the bathroom and turned on the faucet. They put their hands under the water and tried to rub off the ink. But the ink did not vanish. It stayed on their hands. + +"Help!" Ben said. "The ink won't go away!" + +"Help!" Lily said. "We're in trouble!" + +They heard their mom coming. She saw the ink on their hands and on their papers. She saw the bottle on the table. She was not happy. + +"Ben! Lily! What did you do?" she asked. "That's not crayons, that's ink! And it's bad ink! It doesn't vanish! It stains everything!" + +Ben and Lily felt sorry. They did not mean to make a mess. They did not know the ink was bad. + +"We're sorry, mom," they said. "We didn't know." + +Mom sighed. She took the bottle and threw it in the trash. She took the papers and threw them in the trash. She took Ben and Lily and put them in the tub. She scrubbed their hands with soap and water. She hoped the ink would vanish soon. She hoped they learned their lesson. +Anna loves to play hide and seek with her monkey, Max. Max is a soft and delicate toy that Anna got for her birthday. He has brown fur, a long tail and a funny face. Anna likes to hug him and make him talk. + +One day, Anna and Max decide to play hide and seek in the garden. Anna counts to ten and then looks for Max. She checks behind the flowers, under the bench and in the sandbox, but she cannot find him. She wonders where he is hiding. + +"Max, where are you?" she calls out. "I give up, you are too good at hiding!" + +Suddenly, she hears a giggle from the tree. She looks up and sees Max hanging from a branch. He is holding a banana in his hand. + +"Hi, Anna!" he says. "I found a yummy snack in the tree. Do you want some?" + +Anna laughs and runs to the tree. She climbs up and joins Max on the branch. They share the banana and enjoy the view. + +"You are a clever monkey, Max," she says.

He puts all the round toys in one pile, all the square toys in another pile, and so on. + +They are having fun until they hear a loud bark. It is their dog, Spot. Spot is big and friendly, but he likes to chase their toys. He runs into their room and grabs a toy from each pile. He shakes them in his mouth and runs away. + +"Hey, Spot, stop!" Lily shouts. "You are messing up our toys!" + +"Bad dog, bad dog!" Max cries. "Give us back our toys!" + +They run after Spot, but he is too fast. He runs outside and into the street. Lily and Max are scared. The street is dangerous. There are cars and trucks and bikes. They might hurt Spot or their toys. + +They see their mom in the garden. She sees Spot too. She calls his name and holds up his collar. Spot loves his collar. It is red and shiny and has a bell. He drops the toys and runs to his mom. She puts the collar on him and hugs him. She is happy he is safe. + +"Spot, you are a naughty dog!" she says. "You should not take Lily and Max's toys or run into the street. You could get hurt or lost." + +"I'm sorry, mom," Spot says with his eyes. He wags his tail and licks her face. + +Lily and Max run to their mom and Spot. They are happy too. They hug their mom and their dog. They are not mad at Spot anymore. He is their friend. + +"Can we have our toys back, please?" Lily asks. + +"Of course, sweetie," mom says. "But first, let's go inside and sort them again. And this time, let's keep Spot away from them." + +"Okay, mom," Max says. "But can we play with Spot later?" + +"Sure, honey," mom says. "But only in the yard, where it is safe." + +They all go inside and sort their toys again. They have fun and laugh. Spot watches them from his bed. He is happy too. He has his collar and his family. He is safe. +Lily and Tom are playing in the park. They like to search for bugs and flowers. They have a small jar and a net. They run and laugh in the sun. + +But then, Lily feels too hot. She says, "Tom, I need some water. The heat is making me thirsty." Tom nods and says, "Me too. Let's go to the fountain. Maybe we can find some fish there." + +They leave their jar and net under a tree and walk to the fountain. The water is clear and cold. They drink and splash and see some fish. They are happy and cool. + +But when they go back to their tree, they see a big problem. Their jar and net are gone. Someone took them. They are sad and angry. They say, "Who did this? Where are our bugs and flowers?" + +They search for their jar and net. They look under the benches, behind the swings, in the trash cans. But they cannot find them. They are ready to cry. + +Then, they hear a voice. It is Sam, their friend. He says, "Hey, Lily and Tom. Look what I found. A jar and a net with bugs and flowers. Do you want to play with me?" + +Lily and Tom are surprised and happy. They say, "Sam, those are ours. We left them under the tree. We were looking for them. Thank you for finding them." + +Sam says, "Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know they were yours. I thought someone forgot them. I wanted to play with them. Can we share?" + +Lily and Tom smile and say, "Sure, we can share. Let's play together. But first, let's get some more water. It's still hot." They go to the fountain with Sam and their jar and net. They are friends and have fun. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with their toys and share their snacks. One day, they decided to visit the park. They saw a big slide, a swing, and a sandbox. They ran to the slide and took turns going down. + +"Wow, this is incredible!" Lily said. "I love the slide!" + +"Me too!" Ben said. "Let's go again!" + +They climbed up the stairs and slid down again and again. They were having so much fun. But then, they saw a boy with a red hat. He was holding a big truck. He looked mean. + +"Hey, that's my truck!" Ben said. "I left it here yesterday!" + +He ran to the boy and tried to grab the truck. But the boy pushed him away. + +"No, it's mine now!" the boy said. "You can't have it!" + +Ben fell to the ground and started to cry. Lily ran to him and hugged him. + +"Don't cry, Ben!" Lily said. "He's a bad boy. He shouldn't take your truck!" + +She looked at the boy and said, "Give it back! It's not yours!" + +The boy laughed and said, "No way! It's mine! Go away!" + +He ran to the swing and put the truck on the seat. He swung back and forth, holding the truck. + +Lily and Ben felt sad and angry. They wanted to restore the truck to Ben. They thought of a plan. They waited until the boy was swinging high. Then, they ran to the swing and grabbed the truck. They ran back to the slide and slid down with the truck. + +"Ha ha, we got it!" Lily said. "We did it, Ben!" + +Ben smiled and hugged the truck. He said, "Thank you, Lily! You're a good friend!" + +They heard the boy scream and saw him run after them. They ran to the other side of the park and hid behind a tree. They waited until the boy gave up and left. Then, they played with the truck and had more fun. + +The end. +Tommy likes to play with his toy cars. He has many cars of different colors and sizes. He likes to make them zoom and crash on the floor. He also likes to share his cars with his friends. + +One day, Tommy's friend Lily comes to his house. Lily likes to play with dolls. She has many dolls with pretty dresses and hair. She likes to make them talk and hug on the couch. She also likes to share her dolls with her friends. + +Tommy and Lily decide to play together. They show each other their toys and say nice things. Tommy says, "Your dolls are very pretty. Can I hold one?" Lily says, "Yes, you can. You are very generous. You always share your cars with me." She gives him a doll with a blue dress and blonde hair. + +Lily looks at Tommy's cars and says, "Your cars are very cool. Can I drive one?" Tommy says, "Yes, you can. You are very generous. You always share your dolls with me." He gives her a car with a red color and a loud horn. + +They play happily for a while, until Tommy hears a strange noise. He puts his ear close to the doll and listens. He hears a small voice saying, "I love you. You are my best friend." Tommy is surprised and says, "Wow, your doll can talk!" Lily says, "Yes, she can. She is very special. She is my favorite doll. Her name is Lucy." + +Tommy thinks Lucy is very nice. He says, "Lucy, you are very nice. I like you. Can I be your friend?" Lucy says, "Yes, you can. You are very nice. I like you. You are my friend." Tommy smiles and hugs Lucy. + +Lily thinks Tommy's car is very fun. She says, "Tommy, your car is very fun. I like it. Can I keep it?" Tommy says, "Yes, you can. You are very fun. I like you. You can keep it." Lily smiles and honks the horn. + +They are very happy and say, "Thank you" to each other. They recommend their toys to each other and say, "You should play with this. It is very fun." They play some more and have a good time. They are very generous and good friends. +Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They saw a big rose bush with many red flowers. Lily wanted to pick a rose for her mom. She reached out her hand to grab one. + +"Ow!" she cried. "The rose has thorns. They hurt me!" + +Tom ran to her and looked at her finger. There was a little drop of blood. He felt sorry for Lily. + +"Let me help you," he said. He took a leaf and wrapped it around her finger. "This will make it better." + +"Thank you, Tom," Lily said. She smiled at him. She still wanted to give a rose to her mom, but she did not want to get hurt again. + +"Maybe we can find another way," Tom said. He looked around and saw a bucket and a hose. He had an idea. "Come with me," he said. + +He took the bucket and filled it with water from the hose. He carried it to the rose bush and poured some water on the flowers. The water made the roses shine and sparkle in the sun. + +"Wow!" Lily said. "They are so pretty!" + +Tom picked one rose carefully, avoiding the thorns. He gave it to Lily. "Here you go," he said. "This is for your mom. She will love it." + +Lily hugged Tom and thanked him. She was very happy. She ran to the house to show her mom the rose. Tom followed her, feeling proud. He was glad he was patient and helped his friend. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and slide and swing. They saw a big animal with brown fur and horns. It was a cow. + +"Hello, cow!" Lily said. She wanted to touch the cow. She walked to the fence. + +"Wait, Lily!" Ben said. He was afraid of the cow. He thought the cow was rough and scary. He stayed behind. + +Lily reached out her hand. The cow came closer. It sniffed Lily's hand. It licked her with its tongue. + +"Wow, cow!" Lily said. She giggled. The cow was soft and wet. She liked the cow. + +Ben saw Lily and the cow. He wanted to be brave. He walked to the fence. He touched the cow's fur. It was rough and warm. + +"Hi, cow!" Ben said. He smiled. The cow was nice. He liked the cow too. + +The cow mooed. It was happy. It liked Lily and Ben. It wagged its tail. + +Lily and Ben hugged the cow. They were happy. They made a new friend. + +The end. +Lily was sick. She had a bad cough and a sore throat. She did not want to play or eat. Mommy gave her a pill to make her feel better. But Lily did not like the pill. It was big and bitter. She made a face and spit it out. + +"No, no, no!" Lily said. "I don't want the pill. It is yucky!" + +Mommy sighed. She knew Lily needed the pill. She had an idea. She went to the kitchen and came back with a spoon of honey. She dipped the pill in the honey and gave it to Lily. + +"Try this, sweetie," Mommy said. "The honey will make the pill taste good. And the pill will make you well." + +Lily looked at the pill. It was shiny and sticky. She opened her mouth and took the pill. She swallowed it with a gulp. It was not so bad. The honey was sweet and the pill was gone. + +Lily smiled. She felt a little better. She hugged Mommy and said, "Thank you, Mommy. You are charming. You are the best Mommy ever." + +Mommy smiled too. She kissed Lily and said, "You are welcome, Lily. You are charming too. You are the best Lily ever." +Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, Sara sees a shiny phone on the table. She wants to touch it and see what it does. + +"Can I play with the phone?" Sara asks Ben. + +"No, Sara. The phone is not a toy. It is Mom's phone. She needs it for work. She told us not to touch it," Ben says. + +"But it looks so fun. Maybe it has games or songs. Please, Ben, let me play with it for a little bit. I will be careful," Sara begs. + +Ben thinks for a moment. He likes Sara and he wants to make her happy. But he also knows that Mom is honest and she always tells the truth. He trusts Mom and he wants to do what she says. + +"Sorry, Sara. I can't let you play with the phone. Mom said no and we have to listen to her. She will be back soon and we can play with other things. How about we play with the blocks or the puzzles?" Ben suggests. + +Sara is sad and angry. She does not want to play with the blocks or the puzzles. She wants to play with the phone. She thinks Ben is mean and selfish. She decides to wait until Ben is not looking and then grab the phone and run away. + +She waits for a few minutes and then she sees her chance. Ben is busy with the puzzles and he does not see her. She quickly takes the phone and runs to the other room. She feels happy and excited. She turns on the phone and sees many buttons and colors. She presses some of them and hears noises and voices. She thinks it is a game and she laughs. + +But then she hears a loud voice that sounds angry and scared. It is Mom's voice. She is talking to someone on the phone. She is saying that there is a problem at work and she needs to fix it. She is asking where is her phone and why is it not working. She is saying that she will be late and she hopes that Ben and Sara are okay. + +Sara feels scared and guilty. She realizes that she did a bad thing. She broke Mom's phone and she made her worry. She also lied to Ben and she made him sad. She wishes she had listened to him and trusted him. She knows that he is a good friend and he was trying to help her. + +She runs back to Ben and gives him the phone. She says sorry to him and to Mom. She says that she will never touch the phone again and that she will be honest and good. Ben hugs her and says that he forgives her and that he is still her friend. He says that they can play with the phone together when Mom lets them. He says that they can also play with the blocks and the puzzles and have fun. + +Mom comes back and sees them. She is happy and relieved. She says that she fixed the problem at work and that she is proud of them for being honest and good. She says that she loves them and that she trusts them. She says that they can play with the phone for a little bit as a reward. She says that the phone is not a toy but it is also a way to talk to people and learn new things. She says that they can use the phone to call Grandma and tell her a story. + +Sara and Ben smile and say thank you to Mom. They call Grandma and tell her what happened. Grandma says that she is glad that they learned a lesson and that they are honest and good. She says that she loves them and that she trusts them. She says that she has a story for them too. She says that it is a story about a phone and a friend. She says that it is a story that she heard when she was a little girl. She says that it is a story that has a moral value. She says that it is a story that begins like this: + +"Once upon a time, there was a boy named Jack and a girl named Jill. They were friends. They liked to play with toys and books. One day, Jack saw a shiny phone on the table..." +Anna loved trains. She had a toy train that she played with every day. It was red and blue and had a whistle that made a loud sound. Anna liked to make the train go around the track and pretend she was a driver. + +One day, Anna's train broke. The wheel came off and the whistle stopped working. Anna was very sad. She cried and hugged her train. She wanted her train to be good again. + +She showed her train to her dad. He was good at fixing things. He looked at the train and said, "Don't worry, Anna. I can repair your train. I have some tools and glue that can help." He took the train to his workshop and Anna followed him. + +Dad worked hard to repair the train. He put the wheel back on and fixed the whistle. He also gave the train a new coat of paint. He made the train look like new. He smiled and said, "There you go, Anna. Your train is charming again. It is ready to go on adventures with you." + +Anna was very happy. She thanked her dad and hugged him. She took her train and ran to her room. She put the train on the track and made it go around. She heard the whistle and laughed. She said, "I love you, train. You are my best friend." +Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs and worms. One day, they found a big root sticking out of the ground. It was brown and hard and had many bumps on it. + +"Look, Lily, what is this?" Tom asked, pulling on the root. + +"I don't know, Tom, maybe it is a snake!" Lily said, scared. + +They pulled harder and harder, but the root did not move. They heard a loud crack and saw a big hole in the ground. They looked inside and saw a small plant with green leaves and purple flowers. + +"Oh, Tom, we broke the plant!" Lily cried, feeling sorry. + +They heard a voice behind them. It was their mom, who had been watching them from the window. + +"Tom, Lily, what have you done?" she asked, coming closer. + +"We were playing, mom, and we found this root, and we wanted to see what it was, and we pulled it, and we broke the plant, and we are sorry, mom!" Tom and Lily said, quickly. + +Mom looked at the hole and the plant. She was not angry, but she was sad. + +"Tom, Lily, this root was not a snake, it was part of the plant. The plant needs the root to grow and live. Without the root, the plant will die. You should not pull things that you don't know, you should be gentle and careful with nature. Nature is beautiful and gives us many gifts, like flowers and fruits and air. We should respect and protect nature, not hurt it. Do you understand?" she said, softly. + +Tom and Lily nodded, feeling ashamed. + +"We understand, mom, and we are sorry. We didn't know, we were curious. We like nature, too. How can we fix the plant?" they asked, hopefully. + +Mom smiled, and hugged them. + +"It's okay, my loves, I know you didn't mean to harm the plant. You can help me to fix it. We can put some dirt and water on the hole, and hope that the root will heal. We can also plant some seeds around the plant, and watch them grow. Maybe they will become friends with the plant, and make it happy. And we can also learn more about plants and roots, and how they work. Would you like that?" she asked, kindly. + +Tom and Lily smiled, and nodded. + +"Yes, mom, we would like that. Thank you, mom. We love you, mom. And we love nature, too." they said, happily. + +Mom kissed them, and took them by the hand. + +"Let's go, then. We have some work to do. And some fun, too. Come on, my little gardeners." she said, cheerfully. + +They walked to the hole, and started to fix the plant. They were gentle and careful, and they learned a lot. They discovered that nature was amazing, and that they should always be kind to it. And they lived happily ever after. The end. +Tom and Amy are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big lock on a gate. The lock is shiny and has a keyhole. + +"Look, a lock!" Tom says. "I wonder what is behind the gate." + +"Maybe a secret garden, or a treasure, or a dragon!" Amy says. She wants to see. + +They try to open the lock, but they can't. They need a key. They look around, but they don't find a key. + +"Let's watch the lock," Tom says. "Maybe someone will come with a key and open the gate." + +"OK, let's watch," Amy says. They sit on the grass and watch the lock. + +They watch for a long time. They see birds, and clouds, and cars, and people, but no one comes with a key. They start to feel bored and hungry. + +"Maybe the lock is not useful," Amy says. "Maybe there is nothing behind the gate." + +"Maybe you are right," Tom says. "Maybe we should go home and have a snack." + +They get up and walk away from the lock. They don't see the man who comes with a key and opens the gate. They don't see the beautiful garden, or the shiny treasure, or the friendly dragon. They miss the adventure. +Sara and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and make mud pies. They put some flowers and leaves on top of their pies. They pretended they were cakes. + +"Look at my cake!" Sara said. "It has yellow and pink flowers. It is very pretty." + +"Mine is better!" Ben said. "It has green and purple leaves. It is very tasty." + +They laughed and played until their mom called them. "Time to come in, kids! It is getting dark and cold." + +Sara and Ben ran to the house. They were very dirty and wet. Their mom gave them towels and told them to dry themselves. + +"Dry your hair, Sara. Dry your hands, Ben. Dry your feet, too. You don't want to catch a cold." + +Sara and Ben dried themselves. But they still felt uncomfortable. Their clothes were sticky and their shoes were squishy. They wanted to change. + +"Mom, can we have new clothes?" Sara asked. + +"Of course, dear. Go to your room and pick something warm and cozy." + +Sara and Ben went to their room. They took off their dirty clothes and put on new ones. They felt much better. + +They went back to the kitchen. Their mom had a surprise for them. She had baked a real cake. It smelled good and looked yummy. + +"Wow, mom! A cake!" Ben said. + +"Thank you, mom! A cake!" Sara said. + +Their mom smiled and cut them a slice each. She gave them some milk, too. + +"Here you go, kids. Enjoy your cake. You deserve it after playing so hard." + +Sara and Ben ate their cake. It was soft and sweet. They liked it a lot. + +They hugged their mom and said, "We love you, mom. And we love your cake." + +The end. +Lily and Ben were playing with paper. They liked to fold the paper and make different shapes. Lily made a paper hat and put it on her head. Ben made a paper boat and pretended to sail it on the carpet. + +"Look at my boat!" Ben said. "It can go fast and far." + +"Look at my hat!" Lily said. "It is pretty and big." + +They showed each other their paper creations and smiled. They were proud of what they made. + +Then they had an idea. They decided to make a paper stage and put on a show. They folded more paper and taped it together. They made a paper curtain, a paper microphone, and paper props. They used their paper hat and boat as part of their costumes. + +They invited their mom and dad to watch their show. They sat on the sofa and clapped their hands. + +Lily and Ben went behind the paper curtain and got ready. They whispered to each other what they were going to do. + +"Welcome to our show!" Lily said, as she pulled the paper curtain aside. She wore her paper hat and held a paper flower. She sang a song about spring and danced around the stage. + +"Bravo, Lily!" Ben said, as he came out with his paper boat and a paper sword. He wore a paper eye patch and a paper scarf. He sang a song about pirates and adventures and waved his sword. + +"Wow, Ben!" Lily said, as they both bowed and smiled. They threw their paper props in the air and hugged each other. + +Their mom and dad clapped and cheered. They thought Lily and Ben were very cute and clever. They gave them hugs and kisses and told them they loved their show. + +Lily and Ben were happy. They had fun playing with paper and putting on a show. They thanked their mom and dad for watching and said they wanted to do it again. They folded their paper stage and put it away for next time. +Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and find things. Sometimes they found worms, sometimes they found stones, sometimes they found nothing. + +One day, they found a big, round thing. It was brown and soft and had a hole in it. Tom picked it up and smelled it. + +"Yuck! This thing is rot!" he said. "It smells bad and it is wet and mushy." + +Lily looked at it and saw something shiny inside the hole. She reached out and touched it. + +"Ow! This thing is spicy!" she said. "It hurts my finger and it is hot and sharp." + +They looked closer and saw that the thing was a peach. But it was not a good peach. It was a bad peach. It had a pit inside, and the pit had a pointy end. The peach was old and rotten, and the pit was hard and hot. + +They threw the peach away and ran to the house. They told their mom what they had found. + +"That was a bad peach, my dears," their mom said. "You should not touch or smell or eat rotten things. They can make you sick. Next time, only dig for good things, like flowers or bugs or toys." + +Tom and Lily nodded and hugged their mom. They learned their lesson. They did not want to find any more rotten, spicy pits. +Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes in the soil and look for worms and bugs. They had a big bucket to put their finds in. + +"Look, Lily, I found a big worm!" Tom said, holding up a wriggly brown thing. + +"Wow, Tom, that's a great worm!" Lily said, admiring it. "Can I see?" + +Tom handed her the worm, but as soon as she touched it, it changed. It became a shiny green snake with red eyes and a forked tongue. It hissed at Lily and tried to bite her. + +"Help, Tom, help!" Lily screamed, dropping the snake. "It's a weird snake, not a worm!" + +Tom was scared too, but he grabbed a stick and hit the snake. The snake let out a loud roar and disappeared in a puff of smoke. + +Tom and Lily hugged each other, shaking. They ran back to the house and told their mom what happened. + +Mom listened to their story and hugged them too. She said, "I'm glad you're both okay. That was a very naughty snake, pretending to be a worm. It wanted to trick you and hurt you. You have to be careful when you play in the garden. Some things are not what they seem. You have to use your eyes and your brain and your heart to tell the difference." + +Tom and Lily nodded. They learned their lesson. They decided to play with their toys instead of digging in the soil. They never saw the weird snake again. +Tim and Mia were playing with their toy rockets in the backyard. They liked to pretend they were astronauts and explore the stars. Tim had a big red rocket that made a loud noise when he pushed a button. Mia had a small blue rocket that had a shiny sticker on it. + +"Look, Mia, my rocket is faster and stronger than yours. It can fly very high and far. It is a missile!" Tim said, showing off his toy. + +"No, Tim, your rocket is not a missile. Missiles are bad. They hurt people and make big booms. I don't like missiles. My rocket is nice. It can fly too, and it has a star on it. It is a starship!" Mia said, holding her toy. + +"Yes, it is a missile, Mia. And I will show you. I will launch my missile at your starship and make it fall down. Then you will see who has the best rocket!" Tim said, aiming his toy at Mia's. + +"No, Tim, don't do that! That is not nice. That is mean. You will break my starship and make me sad. Please don't launch your missile at me!" Mia said, feeling frightened. + +But Tim did not listen. He insisted on launching his missile at Mia's starship. He pushed the button and the toy rocket flew out of his hand. It made a loud noise and a trail of smoke. It flew towards Mia's starship and hit it. Mia's starship fell to the ground and broke into pieces. Mia cried and ran to her starship. She picked up the pieces and hugged them. + +"Tim, you are a bad boy! You broke my starship! You made me cry! You are not my friend anymore!" Mia said, sobbing. + +Tim felt sorry. He did not mean to make Mia cry. He did not mean to break her starship. He just wanted to play. He ran to Mia and tried to hug her. + +"Mia, I am sorry. I did not mean to hurt you. I did not mean to break your starship. I was just playing. Please don't be mad at me. Please be my friend again!" Tim said, apologizing. + +Mia looked at Tim. She saw that he was sorry. She saw that he was sad. She felt sorry too. She wiped her tears and hugged him back. + +"Tim, I forgive you. I know you were just playing. But please don't launch your missile at me again. Please be nice to me. Please be my friend again!" Mia said, forgiving. + +Tim and Mia hugged and smiled. They were friends again. They decided to play something else. They decided to play with their toy cars instead. They liked to pretend they were drivers and race each other. They had fun and forgot about their rockets. They were happy. +Tom and Anna were playing in the garden. They liked to dig holes and look for shiny things. Sometimes they found rocks, sometimes they found coins, sometimes they found worms. + +"Look, Anna, I found a mineral!" Tom said, holding up a red stone. "It is very pretty and smooth. Do you want to see?" + +"Yes, please!" Anna said, running over to Tom. She took the stone and rubbed it on her cheek. "It is warm and soft. Can I keep it?" + +"OK, you can keep it. But you have to share it with me sometimes," Tom said. He liked to share with his sister, but he also liked to have his own things. + +They heard their mom calling them from the kitchen. "Tom, Anna, lunch is ready! Come and wash your hands!" + +They ran inside and sat at the table. Mom had made soup and bread for them. She gave them each a bowl and a spoon. + +"Be careful, the soup is hot and spicy," Mom said. "It has pepper and garlic in it. Do you like it?" + +Tom and Anna tasted the soup. They made faces and coughed. The soup was too hot and spicy for them. They did not like it. + +"Mom, we don't like the soup. It hurts our mouths," Tom said. + +"Mom, can we have something else? Something sweet and cold?" Anna said. + +Mom smiled and said, "I'm sorry, my little ones. I thought you would like the soup. But I have something else for you. How about some ice cream and fruit?" + +Tom and Anna cheered and clapped. They loved ice cream and fruit. They quickly finished their bread and waited for Mom to bring the dessert. + +Mom came back with a big bowl of ice cream and a plate of sliced apples and bananas. She gave them each a scoop of ice cream and some fruit. + +"Here you go, enjoy your dessert. And don't forget to thank me," Mom said. + +"Thank you, Mom! You are the best!" Tom and Anna said. They ate their dessert and smiled. They were happy and full. + +They decided to settle on the couch and watch some cartoons. They cuddled with Mom and each other. They also cuddled with their mineral. It was still warm and soft. They liked their mineral. It was their special treasure. +Anna and Ben were friends. They liked to play with toys and books. One day, they went to a new place. It was a big room with many toys and books. Anna and Ben were happy. + +But there was a problem. There was also a boy in the room. His name was Max. Max was bossy. He wanted all the toys and books for himself. He did not want to share. He said to Anna and Ben: "This is my place. You can't play here. Go away!" + +Anna and Ben did not like Max. They wanted to play in the new place. They said to Max: "No, this is not your place. This is a place for everyone. We can play here too. You have to share!" + +Max did not listen. He got angry. He grabbed a toy from Anna's hand. He pushed Ben to the floor. He yelled: "No, you can't play here! This is mine! Mine! Mine!" + +Anna and Ben were sad and scared. They cried. They ran away from the new place. They did not want to play with Max. They did not want to be his friends. They chose to go home. They wished they never went to the new place. They wished they stayed with their old toys and books. They learned a lesson. They learned that some people are bossy and mean. They learned that they should be kind and fair. They learned that they should choose their friends well. +Tom loved to draw pictures with his crayons. He liked to draw animals, cars, houses and people. He wanted to be a famous artist when he grew up. He had a big book of drawings that he showed to his mom and dad every day. + +One day, his aunt came to visit. His aunt was a famous singer. She sang songs on TV and on the radio. She had a lot of fans who liked her voice. Tom was very happy to see his aunt. He wanted to show her his drawings. + +"Hello, Tom," his aunt said. "How are you? Do you want to hear me sing a song for you?" + +"Yes, please," Tom said. "But first, can I show you my drawings? I made them with my crayons. They are very good." + +"Of course," his aunt said. "I would love to see your drawings. You are very talented, just like me." + +Tom ran to his room and brought his book of drawings. He opened it and showed his aunt his pictures. He pointed to each one and told her what it was. + +"This is a lion. He is very big and strong. He roars like this: Rrrrr! This is a car. It is very fast and shiny. It goes like this: Vroom! This is a house. It is very cozy and nice. It has a door, a window and a chimney. This is me. I am very happy and smart. I smile like this: Cheeeese!" + +His aunt looked at his drawings and clapped her hands. She praised him and hugged him. + +"Wow, Tom, these are amazing. You are a very good artist. You have a lot of imagination and creativity. You make me very proud." + +"Thank you, auntie," Tom said. "You are very nice. Can you sing a song for me now?" + +"Sure, Tom," his aunt said. "What song do you want to hear?" + +"Can you sing a song about my drawings?" Tom asked. + +His aunt thought for a moment. Then she smiled and nodded. + +"OK, Tom, I will try. I will sing a song about your drawings. It might not be perfect, but I will manage. Are you ready?" + +"Yes, I am ready," Tom said. + +His aunt cleared her throat and began to sing. She sang a song about Tom's drawings, using simple words and rhymes. She sang about the lion, the car, the house and Tom. She sang with a beautiful voice and a lot of emotion. Tom listened and clapped his hands. He sang along with some of the words. He was very happy and proud. He loved his aunt and his drawings. He felt like a famous artist. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play together. One day, they play cops and robbers. Tom is the cop and Lily is the robber. Tom chases Lily around the yard. He catches her and puts her in jail. Jail is a big box with a hole. + +"Ha ha, I got you!" Tom says. "You are a bad robber. You have to stay in jail." + +"No, I don't!" Lily says. "I want to get out. Let me out, please!" + +But Tom does not let her out. He goes to play with his toy car. Lily is sad and angry. She does not like jail. She wants to play something different. + +Then, she sees a cat. The cat is black and white. It has a bell on its neck. The cat comes to the hole and looks at Lily. Lily likes the cat. She smiles and says, "Hello, cat. Do you want to play with me?" + +The cat meows and nods. It pushes the box with its paw. The box moves a little. Lily pushes the box from inside. The box moves more. The cat and Lily push and push. The box falls over. Lily is free! + +"Yay, you rescued me!" Lily says. She hugs the cat. "You are a good cat. You are my hero." + +The cat purrs and licks Lily's face. Lily laughs. She says, "You are different from Tom. You are nice and fun. Do you want to be my friend?" + +The cat meows and nods. Lily and the cat run away from the jail. They play together in the sun. They are happy. Tom sees them and feels sorry. He says, "Wait for me! I want to play with you, too!" + +The end. +Lily and Tom are big kids. They can ride bikes very fast. They like to speed on the road and race each other. They think they are very good at biking. + +One day, they see a man with a big cup of coffee. He is walking to his car. Lily and Tom want to play a trick on him. They decide to speed past him and make him spill his coffee. + +They wait for the man to cross the road. Then they pedal as hard as they can. They zoom by the man and yell, "Boo!" + +The man is scared. He drops his coffee. The hot coffee splashes on his shirt and pants. He screams, "Ow! Ow! Ow!" + +Lily and Tom laugh. They think they are very funny. They are proud of their trick. + +But the man is not happy. He is angry. He runs after them. He catches them. He grabs their bikes. He says, "You are very naughty! You hurt me and made a mess! You have to pay for my coffee and my clothes! Give me your bikes!" + +Lily and Tom are scared. They cry. They beg the man to let them go. They say, "We are sorry! We are sorry! Please don't take our bikes!" + +But the man does not listen. He takes their bikes. He says, "You have to learn your lesson! No bikes for you!" + +Lily and Tom are sad. They have no bikes. They have no fun. They wish they did not speed and play a trick on the man. They wish they were nice and polite. They wish they had a good ending. +Lily and Tom were eager to go to the farm. They wanted to see the pigs and feed them. They put on their boots and hats and got in the car with Mom. + +At the farm, they saw many pigs. Some were big and some were small. Some were pink and some were brown. Some were muddy and some were clean. Lily and Tom ran to the fence and called the pigs. + +"Hello, pigs! Do you want some food?" Lily asked. + +"Oink, oink!" the pigs answered. + +Mom gave Lily and Tom some corn and carrots. They threw them over the fence and watched the pigs eat. The pigs were happy and noisy. They snorted and chewed and pushed each other. + +Lily and Tom laughed and clapped. They liked the pigs. They saw one pig that was very shiny. It had no mud on it. It looked like it had just had a bath. It was the smallest pig of all. + +"Look, Tom! That pig is so shiny!" Lily said. + +"Yes, it is! It is so cute!" Tom said. + +They wanted to pet the shiny pig. They asked Mom if they could. + +"Sure, you can. But be careful. The pig might be shy or scared," Mom said. + +Lily and Tom climbed over the fence. They walked slowly to the shiny pig. They held out their hands and talked softly. + +"Hi, shiny pig. We are Lily and Tom. We want to be your friends. Can we pet you?" Lily said. + +The shiny pig looked at them. It was curious and friendly. It wagged its tail and snuffled their hands. It let them pet its smooth fur. It liked them. + +Lily and Tom were happy. They hugged the shiny pig. They gave it some more food. They played with it until it was time to go. + +"Bye, shiny pig. We will come back soon. We love you," Lily and Tom said. + +"Oink, oink!" the shiny pig said. + +They waved and smiled. They had a fun day at the farm. They learned a lot about pigs. They made a new friend. They thanked Mom for taking them. They went home. They dreamed of the shiny pig. +Ben and Lily were twins who liked to help their mom in the kitchen. One day, mom asked them to deliver some butter to their neighbor, Mrs. Lee, who lived across the street. She gave them a small basket with a yellow stick of butter wrapped in paper. + +"Be careful and don't drop the butter," mom said. "And don't talk to strangers on the way." + +Ben and Lily nodded and put on their coats and hats. They held hands and walked out of the door. They were curious about Mrs. Lee, who they had never met before. They wondered what she looked like and what she needed the butter for. + +As they crossed the street, they saw a big black dog barking at them from behind a fence. Ben and Lily were scared and ran faster. The dog jumped over the fence and chased them. Ben and Lily screamed and dropped the basket. The butter fell out and rolled on the sidewalk. + +"Help! Help!" Ben and Lily cried. + +A man who was walking by heard them and came to their rescue. He shooed the dog away and picked up the butter. He saw the address on the paper and recognized it as Mrs. Lee's. + +"Are you okay, kids?" he asked. "I'm sorry about the dog. He's not very friendly. I'm Mr. Lee, Mrs. Lee's husband. I can take the butter to her for you." + +"Thank you, Mr. Lee," Ben and Lily said. "We're sorry we dropped the butter. We were trying to deliver it to your wife. Our mom sent it to her." + +"That's very kind of your mom," Mr. Lee said. "And very brave of you to try to deliver it. Come on, let's go to our house. Mrs. Lee will be happy to see you and thank you. And maybe she'll give you some cookies. She's making them with the butter." + +Ben and Lily smiled and followed Mr. Lee. They were glad they were safe and that they had made a new friend. They were still curious about Mrs. Lee and her cookies. They hoped they would be yummy. +Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play outside in the sun. But now it is winter. The sky is gray and the ground is white. They cannot go out and have fun. + +"Mom, when will winter go away?" Sara asks. She looks out the window and sees snowflakes falling. + +"Soon, my dear. Winter is a season. It will not last forever. There are four seasons in a year: winter, spring, summer and fall. Each season has different weather and different things to see and do." Mom says. + +"What is spring like?" Ben asks. He is bored with his toys and wants to try something new. + +"Spring is when the snow melts and the flowers bloom. The air is warm and the birds sing. You can plant seeds and watch them grow. You can ride your bikes and fly your kites. Spring is a beautiful season." Mom says. + +"Wow, spring sounds nice. I want spring to come soon." Sara says. + +"Me too. Can we do something to make spring come faster?" Ben says. + +Mom smiles and hugs them. "Well, there is one thing you can do. You can pray. Praying is when you talk to God and ask him for something. God loves you and listens to you. You can pray for spring to come and thank him for winter too." Mom says. + +"Okay, Mom. We will pray for spring. How do we pray?" Sara says. + +"You can close your eyes and fold your hands. Then you can say something like this: Dear God, thank you for winter and the snow. It is fun to make snowmen and snow angels. But we miss the sun and the flowers. Please make spring come soon. We love you. Amen." Mom says. + +Sara and Ben do as Mom says. They close their eyes and fold their hands. They repeat Mom's words and add their own. They pray for spring and for their family and friends. They pray for the fat cat that lives next door and the dog that barks at them. They pray for a long time. + +Mom watches them and smiles. She hopes that God will answer their prayers and make spring come soon. She knows that winter is a season and it will not last forever. But she also knows that praying is a good thing to do. It makes them happy and hopeful. It makes them closer to God and to each other. Praying is a wonderful thing to do. +Tom and Anna liked to play with their toys in the living room. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big figure of a lion. The lion had a soft mane, a long tail and sharp teeth. Tom and Anna liked to pretend that the lion was their friend and they would provide him with food and water. + +One day, their mom told them to clean up their toys and put them away. She said she had a surprise for them. Tom and Anna were excited and quickly put their toys in a big box. But they forgot to put the lion in the box. They left him on the floor, near the door. + +Mom came back with a big cake and some candles. She said it was Tom's birthday and they could have some cake and sing a song. Tom and Anna were happy and ran to the table. They did not see the lion on the floor. + +Dad came home from work and opened the door. He did not see the lion on the floor either. He stepped on the lion and tripped. He fell down and hit his head on the table. The cake and the candles fell down too.

The cake caught fire. The fire spread to the tablecloth, and then to the curtains. Tom dropped the match and ran away. He was scared. + +He heard his mom and dad scream. They saw the fire and tried to put it out. But it was too late. The fire was too big. It burned the whole house. Tom and his family had to go outside. They had nothing left. They were not famous. They were sad. +Lila liked to polish her shoes. She had a red cloth and a shiny tin of polish. She rubbed the cloth on the tin and then on her shoes. She made them look very clean and bright. + +One day, she was polishing her shoes in the living room, when she heard a loud noise. It was a siren. She looked out of the window and saw a big truck with a flashing light. It was a fire truck. It stopped in front of her house. + +Lila ran to the door and opened it. She saw a man in a yellow suit and a helmet. He had a hose in his hand. He looked at Lila and said, "Hello, little girl. Is anyone else in the house?" + +Lila shook her head. She was scared. She said, "No, sir. It's just me and my shoes." + +The man smiled. He said, "Don't worry, we're here to help. There's a fire in the house next door. We need to put it out. Can you come with me to the truck? It's safer there." + +Lila nodded. She grabbed her shoes and her cloth and followed the man. He lifted her up and put her in the truck. He gave her a blanket and a teddy bear. He said, "You're very brave, Lila. You did the right thing. This is an emergency. We have to act fast." + +Lila hugged the teddy bear. She looked at the house next door. It had smoke and flames coming out of the windows. She felt sorry for the people who lived there. She said, "Poor people. They lost their home." + +The man said, "Yes, poor people. But we'll do our best to save what we can. And maybe you can share your shoes with them. They're very nice shoes. You polished them very well." +Lily and Tom were playing pirates in the garden. They had a big box for a ship, a stick for a sword and a scarf for a flag. They pretended to sail on the sea and look for treasure. + +"Look, Tom, I see an island!" Lily said, pointing to a pile of rocks. "Maybe there is gold and jewels there. Let's go and explore!" + +They jumped out of the box and ran to the rocks. They climbed and searched, but they did not find any treasure. They only found a shiny red apple. + +"Wow, this apple looks delicious!" Tom said, picking it up. "I'm hungry. Can I have a bite?" + +Lily looked at the apple and felt hungry too. She wanted to eat it, but she also wanted to be nice to Tom. He was her best friend and a brave pirate. She remembered that pirates share their loot. + +"Okay, Tom, you can have a bite. But then you have to give it to me. It's our apple, we found it together." She said, smiling. + +Tom nodded and took a small bite. He gave the apple to Lily and she took a small bite too. They passed the apple back and forth, until there was nothing left but the core. + +They threw the core away and hugged each other. They were happy and full. They had shared their treasure like good pirates. + +"That was the best apple ever!" Tom said. + +"Yes, it was. And you are the best pirate ever!" Lily said. + +They ran back to their box and sailed away, looking for more adventures. +Tom and Lily were playing with their toy cars in the backyard. They liked to pretend they were racing on a big road. Tom had a red car and Lily had a blue car. They made loud noises with their mouths as they zoomed around. + +But then, Tom's car broke. The wheel came off and rolled away. Tom was very sad. He cried and cried. He loved his red car very much. + +Lily saw Tom crying and felt sorry for him. She wanted to help. She said, "Don't cry, Tom. I know who can fix your car. He is a mechanic. He knows how to make cars work again." + +Tom looked at Lily and sniffed. He asked, "Who is the mechanic? Where is he?" + +Lily pointed to the house next door. She said, "He is our neighbor. He is very nice and young. He has a lot of tools and a big garage. He likes to fix cars and bikes and other things. Maybe he can fix your car too. Come on, let's go ask him." + +Tom wiped his tears and nodded. He picked up his broken car and followed Lily. They walked to the next door and knocked. The mechanic opened the door and smiled. He saw Tom's car and said, "Oh, what happened to your car? Do you want me to fix it for you?" + +Tom nodded and said, "Yes, please. Can you make it work again?" + +The mechanic said, "Sure, I can. Come inside, I have a special place for cars. It will be fun. You can watch me and learn some things." + +Tom and Lily smiled and went inside with the mechanic. They were happy and curious. They hoped the mechanic could fix Tom's car and make it zoom again. +Lily and Ben liked to play theater. They had a big box that they cut and painted to look like a stage. They also had costumes and props that they made from old clothes and toys. They liked to act out stories that they read or made up. + +One day, they wanted to do a show for their mom and dad. They set up their theater in the living room and practiced their lines. Lily was a princess and Ben was a dragon.

Go away!" + +Spot looked at them with his big eyes and wagged his tail. He did not understand why they were mad at him. He thought they were playing with him. He licked their faces and tried to cheer them up. + +Lily and Ben's mom and dad came to see what was wrong. They saw the broken theater and the upset children. They hugged them and said they were sorry. + +"Don't worry, we can fix it," their dad said. "Or we can make a new one. We have more boxes in the garage." + +"Really?" Lily and Ben asked. + +"Really," their mom said. "And we still want to see your show. You worked so hard on it. Maybe you can use the couch as your stage for now." + +Lily and Ben smiled. They liked that idea. They thanked their mom and dad and gave Spot a pat. They decided he could be part of their show too. He could be the dragon's friend. They put the blanket on him and he wagged his wings. + +They set up their couch theater and invited their mom and dad to watch. They acted out their story and had a lot of fun. They forgot about the broken theater and were happy. They bowed and clapped and hugged each other. They were proud of their show. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park.

The man was their uncle Sam, who came to visit them. Lily and Tom ran to see the motorcycle and asked their uncle if they could ride it. + +"Sorry, kids, this motorcycle is not for you. It is too big and too dangerous. You have to be older and wear special clothes to ride it," uncle Sam said. + +Lily and Tom felt sad and angry. They wanted to ride the motorcycle so badly.

They went back to their toy motorcycle and ignored their uncle. + +"Maybe when we grow up, we can have our own motorcycle," Lily said. + +"I hope so," Tom said.

"Maybe there are treasures there." + +"No, Tom, we can't," Lily said. She was scared and careful. "Mom said no. And spiders are icky. They can bite us." + +Tom did not listen to Lily.

You should have listened to me. The dark corner is not safe. But you are brave for telling me the truth. Come on, let's clean your hand and put some medicine on it." + +She took Tom and Lily to the bathroom. She washed Tom's hand and put a band-aid on it. She gave him a kiss and said, "There, you will be fine. But next time, please don't go to the dark corner. And don't touch the cobwebs. They are not toys. They are homes for spiders." + +Tom said, "Okay, Mom. I understand. I won't do it again. Thank you for helping me." + +Lily said, "Me too, Mom. Thank you. And I'm sorry for going to the attic with Tom. I tried to stop him, but he didn't listen." + +Mom said, "It's okay, Lily. You are a good sister. You tried to protect Tom. And you came to me when he needed help. You are brave, too." + +She hugged them both and said, "I love you, Tom and Lily. Now, let's go have some cookies and milk. And then we can read a nice story together." + +Tom and Lily smiled and said, "We love you, too, Mom. And we love cookies and milk. And stories. Can we read the one about the princess and the dragon?" + +Mom said, "Sure, we can. That's a good story. Come on, let's go." +Jill and Tom were playing hide and seek in the park. Jill was the seeker and Tom was the hider. Tom ran to the big slide and climbed up. He saw a good spot under the slide where he could hide. He crawled under the slide and waited for Jill to find him. + +Jill looked around the park. She saw the swings, the sandbox, the bench, and the slide. She thought Tom might be hiding under the bench, so she ran there and looked. But she did not see Tom. She said, "Tom, where are you? I can't find you!" + +Tom heard Jill's voice. He wanted to surprise her, so he did not answer. He stayed quiet under the slide. He felt something wet on his back. He looked up and saw a big hole in the slide. Water was dripping from the hole.

You are wet and spoiled!" + +Tom said, "I was hiding from you, but I did not know the slide was broken. I don't like this game anymore. Can we go home?" + +Jill felt sorry for Tom.

"Give it back!" + +"No, I won't," the man said. "This is not a toy. This is my microphone. And you are a very bad girl. You hurt your friend's feelings with your mean words. You should be ashamed of yourself." + +Lily felt scared and sorry. She wanted to say sorry to Tom and to the man, but she couldn't. The man took her by the hand and led her to the park office. He called her parents and told them what she had done. They came and picked her up. They were very angry and sad too. They scolded her and took away her toys. They said she had to be kind and nice to others, or she would have no friends. + +Lily cried and cried. She wished she had never found the microphone. She wished she had never whispered that secret. She wished she had been kind to Tom. But it was too late. She had lost her best friend and her fun. She had a very bad day. +Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play outside. But today it is raining. They are sad. They want to see the sun. + +Mom says, "Do not be sad. Rain is good. It makes the plants grow. And sometimes, after the rain, you can see a rainbow. A rainbow is many colors in the sky. It is pretty." + +Sam and Ben look out the window. They hope to see a rainbow. But they only see gray clouds. They sigh. + +Mom says, "Why don't you play a game inside? You can pay me with hugs and kisses. I have a tough puzzle for you. It has many pieces. Can you put them together?" + +Sam and Ben smile. They like puzzles. They run to the table. Mom gives them the puzzle. It is a picture of a rainbow. Sam and Ben start to pay mom with hugs and kisses. They say, "Thank you, mom. You are the best." + +They work on the puzzle. It is tough. But they help each other. They find the pieces that match. They make the rainbow. They are happy. + +They look out the window again. They see the sun. It is shining. And they see a rainbow. It is many colors in the sky. It is pretty. They clap their hands. They say, "Wow, mom. You were right. Rain is good. And rainbows are good. We love rainbows. And we love you." +Tom and Anna like to play with their toys. They have cars, dolls, blocks and books. But their favorite toy is a rocket. The rocket is big and red and has a window. They pretend to be astronauts and fly to space. + +One day, they ask their mom if they can raise the rocket. They want to see how high it can go. Mom says yes, but they have to be careful. She gives them a string and a balloon. They tie the string to the rocket and the balloon to the string. The balloon is full of air and makes the rocket go up. + +"Wow, look at our rocket!" Tom says. "It is so high!" + +"Yes, it is!" Anna says. "Maybe it can reach space!" + +They watch the rocket fly in the sky. They see birds, clouds and the sun. They wave to the rocket and pretend to talk to it. + +"Hello, rocket!" Tom says. "How is space?" + +"Space is fun!" Anna says in a funny voice. "I see stars and planets!" +
