+Jill thought a while before finally nodding her head. And that is how Jill and Jack explored the world together and learned that it's always better to face your fears than to surrender to them!
+Molly and her mom went shopping. As they were walking, they saw a box. Molly asked her mom what was inside. Her mom said she wasn't sure and they'd have to look. 
+
+Molly wanted the box, but her mom said she had to be modest. Molly was determined to have it, so she resisted.
+
+When they got to the checkout, her mom laughed and said the box was for her. Molly was surprised and delighted that the box was for her. Inside was a rainbow kite that was perfect for flying in the breeze. Molly was so happy with it, she couldn't help but laugh. 
+
+Molly was glad that she resisted the temptation to buy something more than she needed. The box taught her the importance of being modest.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Mary. She was three years old and lived on a farm. In the morning, Mary's mommy would take her outside to help take care of the animals.
+
+The first thing Mary had to do was serve them hay. She carried it in a big bag to the cow's pen and spread the hay for all the cows to eat. It made Mary feel very proud!
+
+Then, Mary had to help serve the chickens. She gave them corn that her mommy had brought from the store. It was a lot of work, but Mary enjoyed doing it.
+
+By the end of the day, Mary was feeling very uncomfortable. Her arms were tired from carrying the hay, and her legs were tired from walking around the farm.
+
+But she knew that she had done a good job and was happy to help serve the animals on the farm. She went back inside the house feeling content and was ready to go to bed.
+Once upon a time there was a little girl. She loved animals, and she wanted to see one so badly. One day, her mommy took her for a walk in the park. As they were strolling, the little girl saw something.
+
+"Mommy, what is that?" She asked.
+
+"That's a deer," her mommy answered.
+
+The little girl was so excited. She had never seen a deer before. She asked her mommy if she could touch it, but her mommy said no.
+
+"It's too expensive," she said. "It's too special."
+
+The little girl was disappointed, but her mommy said the best way to see the deer was to just watch. So the little girl watched the deer and it was so beautiful. She watched it quietly until it was time to go home. The little girl left the park with a big smile on her face.
+Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to do fun things, like zoom around the yard. She would start from one end of the yard and then run toward the other end as fast as she could, whooshing and zooming to her heart's content.
+
+One day, Lily got an idea to climb to the top of a tall tree. She was so excited! She started climbing, but the tree was covered in leaves and the bark was slippery. After a few attempts, she made it to the top. She felt so proud!
+
+But then, all of a sudden, she heard a very weak branch, which snapped as soon as she put weight on it. She lost her balance and started to fall. Luckily, two strong branches were there to catch her.
+
+Lily soon made it safely back onto the ground. She was so relieved that she had been saved. From that day onward, she was extra careful when she zoomed around in her backyard.
+Once upon a time there was a little girl named Emma. Each day she was so cheerful.
+
+One day Emma saw a big bookshelf. She looked at it and smiled. She was so excited to explore what was in it.
+
+But then she started to worry. It was so tall, she couldn't reach the top shelf.
+
+Emma tried to think of a way that she could reach the top. Then she had an idea. She asked her mom if they could get a chair she could stand on.
+
+Her mom brought her a little pink chair. Emma stood on it and was so proud she could reach the top of the bookshelf. She took out a book and felt so joyous.
+
+She was no longer worried; she felt cheerful. The bookshelf was hers.
+One day a small girl saw an image. The image looked tight. She wanted to change it a little bit. She wanted it to be brighter and more colorful. So she grabbed some crayons and went to work. She drew on the image, making it brighter and livelier. Then she added some special sparkles. She was so happy with the way the image changed. She smiled and laughed with delight. Then, the small girl curled up in her bed with the image close by and she fell asleep, dreaming of more things she could do with the image to make it even more special.
+Lily was sleeping in her bed. She had a nice dream about a big cake. She wanted to eat the cake, but then she heard a loud noise. It was her brother Tom. He was jumping on his bed and making crazy sounds. He was pretending to be a monkey.
+
+"Tom, stop it!" Lily said. "You are too loud. I want to sleep."
+
+"No, I don't want to stop. I want to play. You are boring." Tom said. He jumped higher and higher. He threw his pillow at Lily.
+
+Lily was angry. She got out of her bed and grabbed her pillow. She threw it back at Tom. They started a pillow fight. They hit each other with the pillows. They laughed and screamed.
+
+Mom heard the noise. She came to their room. She was not happy. She saw the mess. She saw the feathers from the pillows. She saw the kids.
+
+"What are you doing?" Mom asked. "You are supposed to be sleeping. It is night time. You are making a lot of noise. You are making me crazy."
+
+"Sorry, Mom." Lily and Tom said. They looked at each other. They felt guilty. They knew they were wrong.
+
+"Go back to your beds. No more pillow fights. No more jumping. No more monkey sounds. Say good night to each other and sleep." Mom said. She picked up the pillows and the feathers. She tucked them in their beds. She kissed them good night.
+
+"Good night, Mom." Lily and Tom said.
+
+"Good night, Lily. Good night, Tom." Mom said. She turned off the light and left the room.
+
+Lily and Tom were quiet. They closed their eyes. They tried to sleep. They thought about the cake. They thought about the pillows. They thought about the monkey sounds. They smiled. They whispered.
+
+"That was fun." Tom said.
+
+"Yes, it was. But don't do it again." Lily said.
+
+"OK. I won't. Maybe." Tom said.
+
+They giggled. They fell asleep. They had nice dreams.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pool. They want to swim in the pool.
+
+"Can we swim, please?" Tom asks his mom.
+
+"OK, but be careful. The pool is deep. Stay near the edge," his mom says.
+
+Tom and Mia put on their swim suits. They jump into the pool. They splash and laugh. They have fun.
+
+But then, Tom notices something. He sees a small fish in the pool. The fish is orange and shiny. Tom likes the fish. He wants to catch it.
+
+"Look, Mia! A fish! I want it!" Tom says.
+
+He swims after the fish. He forgets what his mom said. He goes to the middle of the pool. The pool is very deep. Tom cannot touch the bottom. He cannot swim well. He starts to sink.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tom cries.
+
+Mia hears Tom. She sees him in trouble. She is scared. But she is also kind. She wants to help Tom.
+
+She swims to Tom. She grabs his hand. She pulls him to the edge. She calls for help.
+
+"Mom! Mom! Tom needs help!" Mia shouts.
+
+Tom's mom hears Mia. She runs to the pool. She takes Tom out of the water. She hugs him. She is glad he is OK.
+
+"Thank you, Mia. You are very kind. You saved Tom," she says.
+
+Mia smiles. She is happy. She is a good friend.
+
+Tom is sorry. He is sad. He was silly. He did not listen to his mom. He says sorry to his mom and to Mia.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. I'm sorry, Mia. I was bad. I should not chase the fish. I should stay near the edge. Thank you for helping me," he says.
+
+Tom's mom and Mia forgive him. They are kind too. They hug him. They are still friends.
+
+They decide to play in the park. They do not swim in the pool. They do not chase the fish. They play with their ball. They have fun.
+Ben likes cereal. He eats cereal every morning. He likes to put milk and sugar on his cereal. He thinks it is yummy.
+
+One day, Ben wakes up and goes to the kitchen. He sees a big box of cereal on the table. He is very happy. He wants to eat cereal by himself. He does not wait for Mom or Dad.
+
+He grabs the box and opens it. He pours some cereal into a bowl. He pours a lot of cereal. The bowl is full. He pours some milk on the cereal. He pours a lot of milk. The milk spills over the bowl. He pours some sugar on the cereal. He pours a lot of sugar. The sugar makes a mess on the table.
+
+Ben looks at his bowl. He thinks it looks good. He takes a big spoon and puts it in his mouth. He chews and swallows. He makes a face. He does not like it. It is too sweet and too wet. He feels sick.
+
+He hears Mom coming. He is scared. He knows he did something bad. He tries to hide the bowl and the box. He knocks them over. The cereal and the milk and the sugar go everywhere. The floor and the table and the chair are dirty.
+
+Mom sees the mess. She is angry. She says, "Ben, what did you do? You made a big mess. You wasted the cereal and the milk and the sugar. You did not ask for help. You did not learn how to eat cereal by yourself. You are in trouble. You have to clean this up. And you have to go to your room. No more cereal for you today."
+
+Ben feels sad. He says, "I'm sorry, Mom. I wanted to eat cereal by myself. I did not know it would be bad. I will clean it up. I will learn how to eat cereal by myself. Please don't be mad at me."
+
+Mom says, "I'm sorry, too, Ben. I love you. But you have to listen to me. You have to wait for me or Dad to help you. You have to be careful with the food. You have to learn from your mistakes. Now, go to your room and think about what you did. Maybe tomorrow you can have cereal again. But only if you are good."
+
+Ben goes to his room. He cries. He does not want to clean the mess. He does not want to go to his room. He does not want to think about what he did. He wants to eat cereal. He wants Mom to be happy. He wants to learn how to eat cereal by himself. But he does not know how. He thinks he is a bad boy. He thinks cereal is bad. He thinks he will never eat cereal again. He is very unhappy. The end.
+Anna liked to play with her toy lab. She had many bottles and tubes and cups. She liked to mix them and see what happened. Sometimes they made bubbles, sometimes they made colors, sometimes they made noises.
+
+One day, she found a new bottle in her lab. It was shiny and had a red cap. She wondered what was inside. She opened the cap and saw a clear liquid. She smelled it, but it had no smell. She touched it, but it had no feel. She decided to spray it on her lab.
+
+She squeezed the bottle and a jet of liquid came out. It hit her lab and made a loud hiss. Anna was surprised and scared. She dropped the bottle and ran away. The liquid kept spraying and hitting her lab. It made more hiss and smoke. It melted her bottles and tubes and cups. It made a big mess.
+
+Anna's mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw the smoke and the mess and the bottle. She was angry and worried. She grabbed the bottle and turned off the spray. She looked at the label and saw that it was a harsh cleaner. She wondered how Anna got it.
+
+"Anna, what did you do?" she asked in a stern voice.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to play with my lab. I found a new bottle and I sprayed it. I didn't know it was bad. It hurt my lab and made a mess. I'm sorry, mom." Anna said in a small voice.
+
+Mom sighed and hugged Anna. She was glad that Anna was not hurt. She told Anna that the bottle was not a toy. It was a harsh cleaner that could hurt people and things. She told Anna to never touch it again. She told Anna to help her clean the mess. She told Anna that she loved her, but she had to be careful.
+
+Anna nodded and said she was sorry again. She helped mom clean the mess. She threw away her melted lab. She was sad, but she learned a lesson. She decided to only play with safe toys. She hoped that mom would buy her a new lab someday.
+Tom and Anna liked to play in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. One day, they saw a big box near the fence. It had a sign that said "Do not open. Order for Mr. Brown."
+
+"What is in the box?" Tom asked.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe a toy or a cake," Anna said.
+
+"Let's open it and see," Tom said. He ran to the box and tried to lift the lid.
+
+"No, Tom, stop! The sign says do not open. It is not ours. It is for Mr. Brown," Anna said. She ran after Tom and grabbed his arm.
+
+"But I want to know. It is a mysterious box. Maybe it has a surprise for us," Tom said. He pulled his arm and lifted the lid a little.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was Mr. Brown. He was coming from his house. He saw Tom and Anna near the box.
+
+"Hey, you two! What are you doing with my box? Shut the lid right now!" Mr. Brown shouted.
+
+Tom and Anna were scared. They shut the lid and ran away. They did not want to see what was in the box anymore.
+
+They learned a lesson. They should not touch things that are not theirs. They should respect other people's orders. And they should not be too curious about mysterious things.
+Tom is a little boy who likes to play with his toys. He has a big clock that makes tick-tock sounds and has numbers and hands. He likes to watch the clock and learn the numbers and the time.
+
+One day, Tom is playing with his clock when he hears a loud boom. He looks out the window and sees dark clouds and rain. He is scared of the storm and the noise. He runs to his mom and hugs her.
+
+Mom tells Tom not to be afraid. She says that God is watching over them and that the storm will pass soon. She says they can pray to God and thank him for their home and their family and ask him to keep them safe.
+
+Tom and mom kneel down and close their eyes. They pray to God and say the words that mom teaches him. Tom feels calm and happy. He hears mom say "Amen" and opens his eyes.
+
+He looks out the window again and sees a clear sky and a bright sun. He sees a rainbow with many colors. He smiles and says "Wow!" He runs to his clock and sees that it is time for lunch. He thanks God for the food and the storm and the rainbow. He hugs mom and says "I love you". Mom says "I love you too". They go to the kitchen and eat their sandwiches.
+Ben and Mia were playing with blocks in the living room. They wanted to build a big tower with all the blocks they had. But they did not agree on how to do it. Ben wanted to put the big blocks at the bottom and the small blocks at the top. Mia wanted to do the opposite. She said the small blocks were more fragile and would break if they were at the bottom.
+
+"No, Mia, you are wrong. My way is better. Look, I can make the tower very high," Ben said. He took a small block from Mia's pile and put it on his tower.
+
+"Hey, Ben, stop it. That is my block. Give it back. Your tower is silly. It will fall down soon," Mia said. She tried to grab the block from Ben's tower.
+
+But Ben did not let go. He pulled the block harder. Mia pulled harder too. They both pulled and pulled until the block came out. But then they lost their balance and fell to the floor. The block flew in the air and hit the big vase on the shelf. The vase was very fragile. It broke into many pieces. The pieces fell on the floor and made a loud noise.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the living room. She saw the broken vase, the blocks, and Ben and Mia on the floor. She was very angry. She scolded Ben and Mia for being naughty and careless. She said they had to clean up the mess and go to their rooms. She said they could not play with blocks anymore. Ben and Mia felt very sorry and sad. They wished they had agreed on how to build the tower. They wished they had not broken the vase. They wished they had not made Mom angry. But it was too late. They had to do what Mom said. They had a bad ending.
+Tom is a dog. He lives with a human family. He likes to play with the children and sleep on the sofa. He also likes to help his human friends.
+
+One day, Tom sees a new human in the garden. He is different from the other humans. He has a big hat, a long beard and a bag. He is looking at the flowers and the trees. Tom is curious. He runs to the new human and barks.
+
+"Hello, dog. What is your name?" the new human asks.
+
+"Tom. Who are you?" Tom says.
+
+"I am Ben. I am a gardener. I help the plants grow and look nice. Do you like plants, Tom?" Ben says.
+
+"Yes, I do. They smell good and are pretty. Can I help you, Ben?" Tom says.
+
+"Sure, you can. You can help me dig the soil and water the plants. But be careful, some plants have thorns and can hurt you. And don't eat the plants, they are not for dogs." Ben says.
+
+"OK, Ben. I will be a good helper. Thank you for letting me help you." Tom says.
+
+Tom and Ben work together in the garden. They have fun and make the plants happy. The human family sees them and smiles. They are glad that Tom has a new friend. Tom is a good dog and a good helper. He likes to help different humans.
+Tom and Lily were playing with their plastic toys in the garden. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Tom had a plastic lion and Lily had a plastic elephant.
+
+"Roar!" Tom said, making his lion jump on Lily's elephant. "I am the king of the jungle!"
+
+"Trumpet!" Lily said, making her elephant push Tom's lion away. "I am the biggest and strongest!"
+
+They played like this for a while, until they saw Sam walking by. Sam was their neighbor and he had a plastic dinosaur. It was green and had sharp teeth and a long tail.
+
+"Wow!" Tom and Lily said, looking at Sam's dinosaur. "Can we join you?"
+
+Sam looked at them and shook his head. "No, you can't. This is my dinosaur and I don't want to share. Go away!"
+
+Tom and Lily felt upset. They wanted to play with Sam and his dinosaur, but he was being mean. They didn't know what to do.
+
+"Please, Sam, let us join you. We can be friends and have more fun together," Lily said, trying to be nice.
+
+"No, I said go away! This is my dinosaur and you can't touch it!" Sam said, holding his dinosaur tightly.
+
+He turned around and walked away, leaving Tom and Lily behind. They felt sad and angry. They didn't like Sam anymore. They decided to play with their own toys and ignore him. They hoped he would change his mind and be nice to them someday.
+One day, a little girl named Mia went to the zoo with her mom and dad. She loved to see all the different animals and learn their names. She saw lions, monkeys, elephants, and many more.
+
+When they came to the giraffe enclosure, Mia was amazed by how tall and graceful they were. She gazed at them with big eyes and pointed at them with her finger. "Look, mom, look, dad, giraffes!" she said excitedly.
+
+One of the giraffes noticed Mia and came closer to the fence. It stretched its long neck and licked Mia's face with its tongue. Mia giggled and touched its soft fur. "Hello, giraffe, you are so nice!" she said.
+
+But not everyone was happy. A zoo staff who was feeding the giraffes was grumpy. He did not like it when the giraffes paid attention to the visitors. He wanted them to eat their food and leave him alone. He shouted at Mia and her parents. "Hey, you, get away from the fence! You are bothering the giraffes! They don't like you!"
+
+Mia was scared and sad. She did not understand why the staff was so mean. She hugged her mom and dad and cried. "Why is he so grumpy, mom, why is he so grumpy, dad?" she asked.
+
+Her mom and dad comforted her and explained that some people are grumpy because they are unhappy or tired or have a bad day. They told her that she did nothing wrong and that the giraffes liked her. They also told her that there are many other nice staff at the zoo who love the animals and the visitors.
+
+They wiped her tears and took her to see the penguins. There, Mia saw a staff who was smiling and waving at her. He gave her a sticker of a penguin and told her some fun facts about them. Mia smiled and thanked him. She felt better and enjoyed the rest of the day at the zoo. She learned that not all staff are grumpy and that giraffes are her new favorite animals.
+Sara and Ben were twins who liked to gaze at the stars at night. They had a big window in their room that showed them the sky. Sometimes they saw the moon and sometimes they saw many tiny lights.
+
+One night, they saw a big star that was brighter than the others. They wondered what it was and what it could do. They asked their grandma, who was elderly and wise, to tell them about the star.
+
+Grandma came to their room and sat by their side. She smiled and said, "That star is a special star. It is called a shooting star. It is a star that moves very fast across the sky. If you see one, you can make a wish and it might come true."
+
+Sara and Ben were excited and curious. They asked, "What kind of wish can we make? Can we wish for anything?"
+
+Grandma nodded and said, "You can wish for anything, but you have to be quick and sincere. The star will not wait for you. And you have to keep your wish a secret, or it will not work."
+
+Sara and Ben thanked their grandma and hugged her. Then they gazed at the sky again, hoping to see another shooting star. They thought hard about what they wanted to wish for. They closed their eyes and whispered their wishes in their hearts. They opened their eyes and saw a flash of light. They smiled and hoped their wishes would come true.
+Tom was a boy who liked to play with his toys. He had cars, trains, blocks and a teddy bear. He liked to make noises and pretend he was driving or building or having a picnic. One day, he was playing in his room when he heard a splash from the kitchen. He ran to see what it was.
+
+In the kitchen, he saw his mom with a mop. She was cleaning the floor, but there was a lot of water on it. She looked angry and tired. She said, "Oh, Tom, the sink is broken. It made a big mess. Can you help me mop the water?"
+
+Tom nodded and took the mop from his mom. He liked to help. He pushed the mop on the floor and saw the water go into the mop. He squeezed the mop and saw the water come out. He thought it was fun. He did it again and again.
+
+But then, he saw something shiny under the sink. He was curious. He put the mop down and crawled under the sink. He reached for the shiny thing. It was a ring. It was his mom's ring. She had lost it a long time ago. She was very sad. Tom was happy. He had discovered the ring.
+
+He crawled out from under the sink and ran to his mom. He showed her the ring and said, "Look, mom, I found your ring. It was under the sink. It is pretty."
+
+His mom was surprised and happy. She hugged Tom and said, "Thank you, Tom. You are a good boy. You helped me mop the water and you found my ring. I love you."
+
+Tom smiled and said, "I love you too, mom. Can we play with the mop some more?"
+
+His mom laughed and said, "Yes, we can. But first, let's turn off the sink. We don't want more water on the floor."
+
+They turned off the sink and mopped the floor together. They had fun and they were happy. They had a deep love for each other.
+Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play outside. They had a big yard with a swing, a slide and a sandbox. One day, they found a long rope in the garage. Ben had an idea.
+
+"Let's play with the rope! We can make it a whip and pretend we are cowboys!" he said.
+
+Anna nodded. She liked to pretend too. They took the rope and ran to the yard. They skipped and laughed as they swung the rope around. They made loud noises like "Yee-haw!" and "Giddy-up!"
+
+But they did not see that the rope was naughty. It had a sharp end that could hurt. It also liked to tangle and trip. As Anna and Ben played, the rope waited for a chance to be mean.
+
+Soon, the rope saw its chance. Ben was skipping too fast and did not look where he was going. The rope wrapped around his leg and made him fall. He scraped his knee and cried.
+
+"Ow! Ow! Ow! The rope hurt me!" he sobbed.
+
+Anna ran to him and saw the blood. She was scared and angry. She picked up the rope and threw it away.
+
+"Bad rope! Naughty rope! Go away!" she shouted.
+
+She hugged Ben and helped him stand up. They limped back to the house. They told their mom what happened. She cleaned Ben's knee and put a band-aid on it. She also threw the rope in the trash.
+
+She hugged Anna and Ben and said, "I'm sorry you got hurt. The rope was naughty and dangerous. You should not play with it. Next time, be careful what you find in the garage. There are better things to play with."
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They learned their lesson. They never played with the rope again. They played with their toys and books instead. They were happy and safe.
+Tim and Dad went to the shop to buy beef. They liked beef very much. They drove in the car and sang a song.
+
+"Look, Dad, a big cow!" Tim said, pointing out the window.
+
+"Yes, that's a cow, Tim. Cows give us milk and beef," Dad said.
+
+"Can we say hello to the cow, Dad?" Tim asked.
+
+"Maybe later, Tim. We have to go to the shop first," Dad said.
+
+They drove to the shop and parked the car. They went inside and looked for beef. They saw many kinds of meat, but not beef.
+
+"Where is the beef, Dad?" Tim said.
+
+"I don't know, Tim. Maybe they ran out of beef," Dad said.
+
+They asked a lady who worked at the shop. She said they had no beef today.
+
+"Sorry, we have no beef today. The truck that brings the beef is broken. Maybe you can try chicken or fish instead," she said.
+
+Tim and Dad were sad. They liked beef very much. They did not want chicken or fish.
+
+"Can we go to another shop, Dad?" Tim said.
+
+"Sorry, Tim. There is no other shop nearby. We have to go home now," Dad said.
+
+They drove back to the car. They were not happy. They did not sing a song.
+
+"Maybe we can have beef tomorrow, Tim," Dad said.
+
+"Maybe, Dad. But I want beef today," Tim said.
+
+They drove home and saw the big cow again. The cow looked at them and mooed.
+
+"Hello, cow," Tim said.
+
+"Hello, Tim," the cow said.
+
+Tim and Dad were surprised. The cow could talk!
+
+"Can you give us some beef, cow?" Tim asked.
+
+"Sorry, Tim. I can't give you beef. I need my beef to stay fit and strong," the cow said.
+
+"Please, cow. We like beef very much. We have no beef today," Tim said.
+
+"Sorry, Tim. I like you, but I like my beef more. Maybe you can have some grass instead," the cow said.
+
+Tim and Dad did not want grass. They wanted beef.
+
+"Bye, cow," Tim said.
+
+"Bye, Tim. Bye, Dad. Have a nice day," the cow said.
+
+Tim and Dad drove home. They had no beef. They were very hungry. They hoped the truck would be fixed soon. They hoped the cow would change its mind. They hoped they would have beef tomorrow.
+Lily and Ben are squirrels. They like to play in the park and find nuts. One day, they see a big nut on a branch. Lily wants to get it, but Ben says it is too high.
+
+"Let me try," Lily says. "I can jump very high."
+
+"Be careful," Ben says. "It is not safe."
+
+Lily jumps and jumps, but she cannot reach the nut. She falls on the grass and hurts her paw. She cries and cries.
+
+Ben runs to her and hugs her. "I am sorry, Lily. Are you okay?"
+
+Lily looks at him and sees a smile on his face. She stops crying and says, "Why are you smiling? This is not funny. This is serious."
+

+
+Lily nods and wipes her tears.
+
+Ben says, "What do you call a nut that is too high to get?"
+
+Lily thinks and says, "I don't know. What do you call it?"
+
+Ben says, "A sky-nut!"
+
+Lily giggles and says, "That is a silly joke. But it makes me feel better."
+
+Ben says, "I am glad. I love you, Lily. You are my best friend."
+
+Lily says, "I love you too, Ben. You are my best friend too."
+
+They hug and smile. They forget about the nut and go to play with their other friends. They are happy squirrels.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with toy planes. They have a big box of planes. Some are red, some are blue, some are yellow. Tom likes the red ones best. Mia likes the blue ones best.
+
+One day, they find a new plane in the box. It is gray and has a big propeller. It looks like a real plane. Tom and Mia are excited. They want to try it.
+
+"Can I fly it first?" Tom asks.
+
+"No, I want to fly it first!" Mia says.
+
+They both grab the plane and pull. The plane breaks. The propeller falls off. The fuel spills out. Tom and Mia are sad.
+
+They look at the broken plane. They see a note. It says: "This plane is very old. It belonged to my grandpa. He was a pilot. He used to dive with this plane and do tricks in the sky. He gave it to me before he died. Please be careful with it. Love, Dad."
+
+Tom and Mia feel sorry. They did not know the plane was special. They did not mean to break it.
+
+They hug each other and say: "We are sorry. We are sorry, Dad. We are sorry, Grandpa."
+
+They try to fix the plane. They glue the propeller back. They fill the fuel tank with water. They paint the plane with crayons. They make it look nice again.
+
+They put the plane back in the box. They write a new note. It says: "We are sorry we broke your plane. We fixed it as best as we could. We hope you like it. We learned to share and be gentle. Thank you for letting us play with it. Love, Tom and Mia."
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to look at the flowers and smell them. Lily saw a big yellow flower that was not open yet. She wanted to see it bloom.
+
+"Look, Ben, this flower is not open. When will it bloom?" she asked.
+
+Ben shrugged. He did not know. He saw a box of matches on the table. He had an idea. He took a match and lit it. He thought the fire would make the flower bloom.
+
+"Ben, what are you doing?" Lily shouted. She was scared of the fire. She ran to get water.
+
+Ben held the match near the flower. He hoped it would open. But the flower did not open. It burned. The fire spread to the other flowers. The garden was on fire.
+
+Lily came back with water. She threw it on the fire. The fire went out. But the flowers were gone. The garden was empty.
+
+Lily and Ben were sad. They had ruined the garden. They heard their mom coming. They did not know what to say. They hugged each other and cried.
+Mia and Ben were bored. They wanted to do something fun. They asked their grandma, who was elderly, if they could help her in the kitchen.
+
+"Sure, you can help me make some cookies," grandma said. "But first, we need to take out the butter from the freezer. It is too hard to stir."
+
+Mia and Ben ran to the freezer. They opened the door and saw many things inside. They saw ice cream, frozen peas, and a big cake. They also saw the butter, wrapped in a paper.
+
+"Here it is!" Mia said. She grabbed the butter and gave it to Ben. Ben held the butter and felt how cold it was.
+
+"Ouch, it hurts my hands!" Ben said. He dropped the butter on the floor. It made a loud noise.
+
+"Oops, sorry, grandma!" Mia and Ben said. They picked up the butter and brought it to the kitchen.
+
+"It's okay, my dears," grandma said. "But we need to wait a little bit for the butter to get soft. Then we can stir it with the sugar and the eggs and the flour. Do you want to help me measure the ingredients?"
+
+"Yes, please!" Mia and Ben said. They smiled and hugged their grandma. They were happy to help her make some cookies. They hoped the cookies would be yummy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big red ball on the grass. They ran to get it.
+
+"Can I play with the ball?" Lily asked.
+
+"OK, but only if you share with me," Ben said.
+
+They kicked the ball back and forth. They had fun.
+
+Then a man came to the park. He had a leather jacket and a leather hat. He looked angry.
+
+"Hey, that's my ball!" he shouted. "Give it back!"
+
+Lily and Ben were scared. They did not want to make the man mad.
+
+"Sorry, mister, we did not know," Lily said.
+
+"Yeah, we just found it here," Ben said.
+
+The man grabbed the ball from them. He glared at them.
+
+"Next time, ask before you take things that are not yours," he said. "This ball is special. It was a gift from my son."
+
+He walked away with the ball.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sad. They liked the ball.
+
+"Let's go play something else," Lily said.
+
+"OK, but can we include Tom and Sara?" Ben asked. "They are our friends."
+
+"Sure, that sounds good," Lily said.
+
+They went to find Tom and Sara. They played on the swings and the slide. They forgot about the ball and the man. They were happy.
+Ben and Lily liked to play in the garden. They had a big toy truck and a small toy caterpillar. They pretended to be builders and moved dirt and rocks with their toys.
+
+One day, they saw a real caterpillar on a leaf. It was green and fuzzy and had many legs. Ben wanted to catch it and put it in his truck. He said to Lily, "Look, a caterpillar! Let's load it in the truck and take it home!"
+
+Lily was scared of the caterpillar. She said, "No, Ben, don't touch it! It might bite you or make you sick. And it is not nice to take it away from its home. It is happy on the leaf."
+
+But Ben did not listen to Lily. He was not scared of the caterpillar. He thought it was lazy and boring. He reached out his hand and grabbed the caterpillar. He felt it wriggle and tickle in his palm. He laughed and said, "Ha, ha, I got it! It is so silly and soft. Come on, Lily, let's load it in the truck and have some fun!"
+
+Lily cried and said, "No, Ben, stop! You are hurting the caterpillar! Put it back on the leaf, please! It is not a toy, it is a living thing!"
+
+But Ben did not stop. He was mean and stubborn. He threw the caterpillar in the back of his truck and drove it away. He did not care about the caterpillar or Lily. He only cared about himself.
+
+The caterpillar was scared and sad. It did not like the truck or Ben. It wanted to go back to the leaf and eat and sleep. It tried to crawl out of the truck, but it was too high and too fast. It felt sick and dizzy.
+
+Then, something bad happened. Ben hit a bump and the truck flipped over. The caterpillar fell out of the truck and landed on the ground. It was hurt and dirty. It could not move or breathe. It died.
+
+Ben and Lily saw the caterpillar on the ground. They were shocked and sad. Lily said, "Oh, no, Ben, look what you did! You killed the caterpillar! You were so mean and selfish! How could you do that?"
+
+Ben felt sorry and ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry, Lily, I'm sorry, caterpillar. I was wrong. I should have listened to you and left it alone. I did not mean to hurt it. I was just playing."
+
+But it was too late. The caterpillar was gone. Ben and Lily learned a hard lesson. They learned to be kind and careful with animals and plants. They learned to respect life and nature. They never played with caterpillars again.
+Lily and Ben were bored. They had no toys to play with. They looked around the room and saw a big cardboard box. They had an idea.
+
+"Let's make a house with the box!" Lily said.
+
+"OK, how do we do that?" Ben asked.
+
+They took the box and cut out a door and two windows. They drew flowers and stars on the walls. They found some blankets and pillows and made a bed inside. They were happy with their house.
+
+They pretended to live in the house. They cooked pretend food, read pretend books, and sang pretend songs. They had fun.
+
+But then, they heard a loud noise outside. They looked out the window and saw snow falling. It was very cold and icy.
+
+"Wow, look at the snow!" Lily said.
+
+"Can we go out and play?" Ben asked.
+
+They put on their coats, hats, and gloves. They ran out of the house and into the snow. They made snowballs, snowmen, and snow angels. They laughed and played.
+
+But then, they saw a big dog. The dog was barking and running towards them. He looked angry and hungry.
+
+"Uh-oh, a dog!" Lily said.
+
+"What do we do?" Ben asked.
+
+They were scared. They ran back to their house. They closed the door and hid under the bed. They hoped the dog would go away.
+
+But the dog did not go away. He sniffed the cardboard box. He scratched the door. He tore the windows. He made a big hole in the wall.
+
+He saw Lily and Ben under the bed. He wagged his tail and licked his lips.
+
+"Hello, little ones!" he said.
+
+"Who are you?" Lily asked.
+
+"I'm Rex. I live next door. I smelled your house. It smelled good. Can I come in?" he said.
+
+Lily and Ben did not know what to say. They looked at each other and shrugged. They were still scared, but the dog did not seem mean. Maybe he just wanted to play.
+
+"OK, you can come in. But be nice. Don't bite us. Don't break our house. And share our pretend food," Lily said.
+
+"OK, OK, I'll be nice. I won't bite you. I won't break your house. And I'll share your pretend food. Can I be your friend?" he said.
+
+Lily and Ben smiled. They nodded. They let Rex in. They gave him some pretend food. They played with him. They had fun.
+
+They forgot about the cold and icy snow. They were happy with their new friend. They had a good day.
+Anna and Ben were in the car with Mom and Dad. They were going to the zoo to see the animals. Anna was very excited. She liked the lions and the monkeys. Ben liked the elephants and the giraffes.
+
+On the way, they saw a big billboard. It had a picture of a magician and some words. Mom read the words for them. "Come and see the amazing Max. He can make anything disappear. Today only at the theater."
+
+Anna and Ben wanted to see the magician. They asked Mom and Dad if they could go. Mom and Dad said no. They said they had already bought the tickets for the zoo and they did not have time or money for the magician.
+
+Anna and Ben were sad and angry. They did not want to go to the zoo anymore. They wanted to see the magician. They started to cry and shout. Mom and Dad tried to calm them down. They said the zoo was fun and the magician was not real.
+
+The car was moving very slow. There was a lot of traffic. Anna and Ben did not stop crying and shouting. They made a lot of noise. Mom and Dad had a headache.
+
+Suddenly, the car stopped. There was a loud bang. The billboard had fallen down. It had hit the car in front of them. The car was smashed. The people inside were hurt. The billboard was broken. The picture of the magician was gone.
+
+Anna and Ben stopped crying and shouting. They were scared and quiet. They looked at the billboard. They saw the words. "He can make anything disappear."
+
+They thought the magician had made the billboard disappear. They thought he was real and very powerful. They wished they had not asked to see him. They wished they had gone to the zoo. They hugged Mom and Dad and said they were sorry. Mom and Dad hugged them back and said they were glad they were safe. They waited for the police and the ambulance to come. They hoped the people in the other car were okay. They learned a lesson. They learned to be happy with what they had and not to want what they did not have. They learned that some things are better to disappear than to see.
+Tim and Liz are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big red balloon. It is floating in the air. They want to catch it.
+
+"Look, a balloon!" Tim says. "Let's get it!"
+
+They run after the balloon. They jump and reach. But the balloon is too high. They cannot touch it.
+
+"Maybe we can use a stick," Liz says. She finds a long stick on the ground. She holds it up. She tries to poke the balloon.
+
+But the stick is too short. The balloon is still too high. Liz is sad.
+
+"Don't be sad," Tim says. He gives Liz a hug. He squeezes her shoulder. "We can find another balloon. Or we can play something else."
+
+Liz smiles. She squeezes Tim's shoulder back. "You are a good friend," she says. "You are very jolly."
+
+They let go of the stick. They hold hands. They walk to the swings. They forget about the balloon. They are happy.
+Lila and Ben like to play with paper. They can fold the paper and make many things. They can make hats, boats, planes and animals. They have fun with their paper toys.
+
+One day, Lila and Ben find a book with pictures of flowers. They see many colors and shapes. They want to make flowers with paper. They look at the book and try to fold the paper like the flowers. They make roses, tulips, daisies and sunflowers. They are happy with their paper flowers.
+
+They show their paper flowers to Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad smile and clap. They say Lila and Ben are mighty clever. They give them a big hug and a kiss. They put the paper flowers in a vase and put the vase on the table. The paper flowers look pretty on the table.
+
+Lila and Ben are proud of their paper flowers. They say they will make more flowers tomorrow. They put the book and the paper in their room. They say good night to Mom and Dad. They go to bed and dream of paper flowers.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide on the grass. They saw a big puddle of mud. They wanted to splash in it.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Tom said. "It looks fun!"
+
+"OK, Tom!" Lily said. "But we have to be careful. Mommy will be mad if we get dirty."
+
+They ran to the puddle and jumped in. The mud was wet and cold and squishy. They laughed and splashed and made mud pies. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then Lily slipped and fell. She hurt her knee and it started to bleed. She cried and cried. She was scared and sad.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Lily said. "It hurts, Tom! I want Mommy!"
+
+Tom saw Lily crying. He felt sorry for her. He wanted to help her. He ran to her and hugged her. He tried to comfort her.
+
+"Don't cry, Lily!" Tom said. "It's OK. I'm here. You're brave. It's just a little scratch. Mommy will make it better."
+
+He wiped her tears and kissed her knee. He gave her his mud pie. He smiled and said, "Look, Lily! We made a mud cake! Do you want some?"
+
+Lily looked at Tom. He was cheerful and kind. She felt a little better. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Tom. You're a good friend. I like your mud cake. But I think I need some water first."
+
+They held hands and walked to the fountain. They washed their faces and hands and knees. They drank some water and ate their mud cake. They felt happy and silly.
+
+They saw Mommy coming. She looked angry and surprised. She saw their clothes and shoes and hair. They were all covered in mud.
+
+"What have you two been doing?" Mommy asked. "You're so dirty!"
+
+Lily and Tom looked at each other. They giggled and said, "We were playing, Mommy! We had fun!"
+
+Mommy shook her head and sighed. She said, "You're very naughty. But you're also very cute. Come on, let's go home and get clean."
+
+She hugged them and kissed them. She took them home and gave them a bath. They told her their story. She listened and smiled. She said, "I'm glad you had fun. But next time, please stay away from the mud."
+
+Lily and Tom nodded and said, "OK, Mommy. We love you."
+
+They dried off and put on their pajamas. They snuggled in their beds and fell asleep. They dreamed of mud and cake and friends. They were happy.
+Sam and Mia are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books and a big bed.
+
+One day, they find a ball under the bed. It is red and shiny and bouncy. Sam and Mia want to play with the ball. They throw it and catch it and roll it.
+
+But the ball is too big for the room. It hits the wall and the lamp and the shelf. The lamp falls and breaks. The shelf falls and makes a loud noise. The books and the toys fall and make a mess.
+
+"Stop!" Mom says. She comes into the room and sees the ball and the mess. She is angry and scared. "This ball is dangerous. You can hurt yourself or break things. You cannot play with it in the room. You can only play with it outside."
+
+Sam and Mia are sorry. They did not mean to make Mom angry or scared. They did not know the ball was dangerous. They say sorry to Mom and help her clean the room.
+
+Mom hugs them and says, "It's okay. I know you were having fun. But you have to be careful with the ball. It can kick very hard. Next time, let's play with it in the park. Okay?"
+
+Sam and Mia nod and smile. They love Mom and they love the ball. They put the ball in a bag and wait for the next day. They want to play with the ball in the park. They think it will be more fun and less dangerous.
+Sara and Tom like to act. They have a big box of old clothes and hats and boots. They pretend to be different people and animals. Sara likes to be a princess or a fairy. Tom likes to be a pirate or a cowboy.
+
+One day, they find a pair of shiny red boots in the box. Sara wants to wear them. She thinks they are perfect for a princess. Tom wants to wear them too. He thinks they are perfect for a pirate. They both grab a boot and pull hard.
+
+"Let go!" Sara says. "They are mine!"
+
+"No, they are mine!" Tom says. "I saw them first!"
+
+They pull and pull and pull. They are very impatient. They do not want to share. They do not want to act anymore. They only want the boots.
+
+Suddenly, the boots rip apart. Sara and Tom fall down. They look at the broken boots. They feel sad and sorry. They have ruined their fun.
+
+They look at each other. They say sorry. They hug. They decide to share. They find some tape and fix the boots. They take turns wearing them. They act again. They have fun. They are happy.
+Tom and Ben are friends. They like to play with blocks. They build houses and cars and towers with the blocks. One day, they see a new boy in the park. His name is Sam. He has a big bag of blocks.
+
+"Hi, Sam. Can we play with you?" Tom asks.
+
+"Sure, you can play with me. But these are my blocks. You can't touch them," Sam says.
+
+He is selfish. He does not want to share his blocks.
+
+Tom and Ben are sad. They want to play with the blocks too. They think Sam is not nice.
+
+"Let's go to the barber," Ben says.
+
+"Why?" Tom asks.
+
+"Because the barber can cut Sam's hair. Then he will look funny. And he will give us some blocks," Ben says.
+
+He is naughty. He wants to make Sam unhappy.
+
+Tom and Ben go to the barber. They tell him about Sam. The barber is kind. He does not want to cut Sam's hair. He wants to help Tom and Ben.
+
+"I have an idea. Why don't you give Sam a gift? Maybe he will be happy and share his blocks with you," the barber says.
+
+He gives Tom and Ben a big box of candy. He says candy is better than blocks.
+
+Tom and Ben are happy. They thank the barber. They go back to the park. They give Sam the candy. Sam is surprised. He smiles.
+
+"Thank you, Tom and Ben. You are very nice. Do you want to play with my blocks?" Sam asks.
+
+"Yes, we do. And we want to play with you too," Tom and Ben say.
+
+They are friends. They share the blocks and the candy. They build houses and cars and towers together. They have fun.
+Lily was playing with her dolls in her room. She had a tea party with them and gave them all names. She liked to pretend they were her friends and talk to them. She was having fun.
+
+But then she felt something in her tummy. She needed to go to the toilet. She put down her dolls and ran to the bathroom. She hoped she would make it in time.
+
+She opened the door and saw that the toilet was already taken. Her big brother was sitting on it. He was reading a book and did not see her. Lily felt scared. She did not want to wet her pants. She did not know what to do.
+
+She knocked on the door and said, "Please, I need to go. Hurry up!" Her brother looked up and saw her. He realized she was in trouble. He said, "Sorry, Lily. I did not know you were there. I will be done soon. Just wait a minute."
+
+He finished his business and flushed the toilet. He got up and washed his hands. He opened the door and let Lily in. He said, "Here you go, sis. You can use the toilet now. I hope you are fine." He smiled and gave her a hug.
+
+Lily was happy. She thanked her brother and went to the toilet. She felt much better. She was fine. She washed her hands and went back to her room. She picked up her dolls and continued her tea party. She was having fun.
+Lily loved to draw with her crayons. She had many colors and shapes to make pictures of her family, her toys, and her dreams. She kept her crayons in a big zip bag that she could open and close easily.
+
+One day, she wanted to draw a rainbow. She took out her red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple crayons and started to make a big arc on her paper. She was very happy with her rainbow. She wanted to show it to her mom.
+
+She put her crayons back in the zip bag and ran to the kitchen. She saw her mom making cookies. She smelled the tasty chocolate and vanilla. She said, "Mom, look at my rainbow! I made it with my crayons!"
+
+Mom smiled and said, "Wow, Lily, that's a beautiful rainbow! You are very good at drawing! Can I see your crayons?"
+
+Lily nodded and handed her the zip bag. Mom opened it and gasped. She said, "Lily, these are not crayons! These are candles! You took them from the drawer where I keep them for the birthday cake!"
+
+Lily looked at the zip bag and saw that Mom was right. She had taken the wrong bag. She felt very sorry and sad. She said, "I'm sorry, Mom, I didn't know. I thought they were crayons. They looked like crayons. I didn't mean to take your candles."
+
+Mom hugged her and said, "It's okay, Lily, I know you didn't mean to. But you have to be careful with candles. They are not for drawing. They are for lighting. They can be hot and dangerous. You could get hurt or start a fire. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "I understand, Mom. I won't take your candles again. I will only use my crayons. Can you help me find them?"
+
+Mom said, "Of course, Lily. Let's go look for them. And then we can have some cookies. They are very tasty. And you can draw me another rainbow. With your crayons."
+Lily and Ben are playing hide and seek in the garden. Lily is the seeker and Ben is the hider. Lily counts to ten and then looks for Ben.
+
+"Where are you, Ben?" Lily calls out. She looks behind the bushes, under the slide, and in the sandbox. She cannot find Ben.
+
+Ben is hiding in the shed. He is very quiet and still. He hopes Lily will not find him. He likes to win the game.
+
+Suddenly, he hears a loud noise. It is Mom calling them for dinner.
+
+"Lily! Ben! Dinner is ready!" Mom shouts. "Come inside now!"
+
+Ben jumps out of the shed. He is hungry and he smells the dinner. He runs to the house.
+
+"Lily, I found you!" he says. "You were hiding in the shed!"
+
+Lily is confused. She was not hiding in the shed. She was looking for Ben.
+
+"No, Ben, you were hiding in the shed!" she says. "I was the seeker!"
+
+They argue for a while. Then they remember the dinner. They stop arguing and go inside.
+
+Mom has made pizza and salad for dinner. Lily and Ben love pizza. They forget about the game and eat their dinner. They are happy and full.
+Ben and Lily were best friends. They liked to play in the park with their toys. One day, they saw a new boy sitting on a bench. He had a big hat and a small dog.
+
+"Who is he?" Lily asked Ben.
+
+"I don't know. Let's go and say hello," Ben said.
+
+They walked to the bench and smiled at the boy.
+
+"Hi, I'm Ben and this is Lily. We are friends. What is your name?" Ben said.
+
+The boy looked at them and said, "I'm Tom. This is Rex. He is my dog."
+
+"Hi, Tom. Hi, Rex. Can we play with you?" Lily said.
+
+Tom nodded and said, "Sure. Rex likes to play fetch. Do you have a ball?"
+
+Ben and Lily shook their heads. They did not have a ball.
+
+"That's okay. I have one. Here, catch!" Tom said and threw the ball to Ben.
+
+Ben caught the ball and threw it back to Tom. Rex ran after the ball and brought it to Tom. Tom threw the ball again and Rex chased it.
+
+Lily watched them and said, "Rex is very fast and smart. Can I pet him?"
+
+Tom said, "Yes, you can. He likes to be petted. But be gentle. He is a bit shy."
+
+Lily reached out her hand and touched Rex's fur. Rex wagged his tail and licked her hand. Lily giggled and said, "He is very soft and friendly. Can I give him a rub?"
+
+Tom said, "Yes, you can. He likes to be rubbed on his belly."
+
+Lily rubbed Rex's belly and Rex rolled over and made a happy sound. Ben joined them and rubbed Rex's ears. Rex licked their faces and made them laugh.
+
+Tom smiled and said, "You are very nice. Rex likes you. I like you too. Can we be friends?"
+
+Ben and Lily nodded and said, "Yes, we can. We are happy to meet you and Rex. You are very nice too."
+
+They hugged and said, "We are friends!"
+
+They played in the park until it was time to go home. They said goodbye and promised to see each other again. They were not worried anymore. They had made new friends.
+Sara and Ben are playing with blocks. They like to make towers and houses with the blocks. Sara has a lot of blocks, but Ben has only a few. Ben wants more blocks, so he tries to take some from Sara.
+
+"Hey, stop!" Sara says. "Those are my blocks. You have your own blocks."
+
+"But I want more blocks. You have too many blocks," Ben says. He grabs a block from Sara's tower. The tower falls down and makes a loud noise.
+
+Sara is angry. She slaps Ben on the arm. "That's not nice. You made my tower fall. You hurt my arm," Ben says. He starts to cry.
+
+Mom hears the noise and comes to see what is wrong. She sees Sara and Ben looking sad and mad. She asks them what happened.
+
+"Sara slapped me. She has too many blocks. She won't share," Ben says.
+
+"Ben took my block. He made my tower fall. He won't ask," Sara says.
+
+Mom sighs. She picks up Ben and hugs him. She rubs his arm and says, "I'm sorry, Ben. Sara shouldn't slap you. That's not how we play. Slapping is bad. It hurts people."
+
+She puts Ben down and picks up Sara. She hugs her and says, "I'm sorry, Sara. Ben shouldn't take your block. That's not how we play. Taking is bad. It breaks things."
+
+She puts Sara down and says, "You both need to say sorry to each other. And you both need to learn to share. Sharing is good. It makes people happy."
+
+She gives them a number. "This is a number. It is four. Can you say four?"
+
+"Four," Sara and Ben say.
+
+"Good. This number means you can have four blocks each. No more, no less. Four is fair. Can you count to four?"
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They count to four with Mom. "One, two, three, four."
+
+"Good. Now, you can each choose four blocks and make your own towers. But you have to be gentle. Gentle means you don't hit or grab or push. Gentle means you are careful and kind. Can you be gentle?"
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They say sorry to each other. They hug and smile. They choose four blocks each and make their own towers. They are gentle. They are happy. Mom is happy too. She watches them play and says, "Good job, Sara and Ben. You are good kids. I love you."
+Lila and Ben were playing near the harbor. They liked to watch the big boats and the small fish. Sometimes they saw dolphins jumping in the water.
+
+"Look, Ben, look!" Lila said. "There is a big ugly boat. It is brown and rusty and has holes. It makes a loud noise. I don't like it."
+
+Ben looked at the boat. He did not think it was ugly. He thought it was interesting. He wanted to see it closer.
+
+"Let's go, Lila, let's go!" Ben said. "Maybe we can see what is inside the boat. Maybe there are pirates or treasure or animals."
+
+Lila did not want to go. She was scared of the boat. She thought it was dangerous. She wanted to stay away from it.
+
+"No, Ben, no!" Lila said. "The boat is bad. It can hurt us. We should stay here. We should call mom and dad. They will tell us what to do."
+
+Ben did not listen to Lila. He ran towards the boat. He wanted to have an adventure. He did not think the boat was bad. He thought it was fun.
+
+Lila was very worried. She did not want Ben to get in trouble. She did not want to lose him. She called mom and dad. She told them what happened.
+
+Mom and dad came quickly. They saw Ben near the boat. They saw Lila crying. They were angry and scared.
+
+"Ben, come here, now!" mom said. "You are not allowed to go near the boat. It is not safe. It is not a toy. You could get hurt. You could fall in the water. You could get lost."
+
+"Dad, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Ben said. "I just wanted to see the boat. I did not mean to make you mad. I did not mean to make Lila sad. I was curious. I was brave."
+
+Mom and dad hugged Ben. They were glad he was okay. They were proud he was curious and brave. But they were also stern. They told him he had to listen to Lila. They told him he had to follow the rules. They told him he had to be careful.
+
+Lila hugged Ben too. She was happy he was back. She was sorry she called the boat ugly. She realized it was not nice. She realized it was not fair.
+
+"Ben, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Lila said. "I did not want to hurt your feelings. I did not want to spoil your fun. I was scared. I was worried."
+
+Ben hugged Lila back. He was happy she was his sister. He was sorry he made her cry. He was sorry he ran away. He realized it was not smart. He realized it was not kind.
+
+"Lila, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Ben said. "I did not want to scare you. I did not want to leave you. I was excited. I was adventurous."
+
+Mom and dad smiled. They were happy Lila and Ben were friends. They were happy they said sorry. They were happy they learned a lesson.
+
+They took Lila and Ben away from the harbor. They took them to the park. They played with them. They had a good time. They forgot about the boat. They did not call it ugly anymore. They called it different.
+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big loop in the park. It is shiny and round. They want to play with it.
+
+"Can I have the loop?" Tom asks Sue.
+
+"No, it is mine. I saw it first," Sue says. She is angry.
+
+Tom is angry too. He tries to take the loop from Sue. They pull and tug. The loop breaks. It is not shiny and round anymore. It is two pieces.
+
+Tom and Sue are sad. They cry. They wish they had the loop again.
+
+They see a man walking by. He has a kind face. He stops and looks at them.
+
+"What is wrong, children?" he asks.
+
+"We broke the loop. It was our toy. Now we have nothing," Tom says.
+
+The man smiles. He bends down and picks up the pieces. He puts them together. He makes a new loop. It is shiny and round again.
+
+"Here you go. You can have the loop. But you have to share it. And you have to be kind to each other," he says.
+
+Tom and Sue are happy. They thank the man. They hug each other.
+
+"Can we play with the loop together?" Tom asks Sue.
+
+"Yes, we can. You are my friend. I am sorry I was angry," Sue says.
+
+They play with the loop. They make it roll and spin. They laugh and have fun.
+
+They look at the man. He is walking away. He waves at them.
+
+"Who is he?" Tom asks Sue.
+
+"I don't know. Maybe he is an angel. Maybe he heard us pray," Sue says.
+
+They pray again. They thank God for the loop and the man and their friendship. They are happy.
+Lily was a cute bunny who loved to eat carrots. She lived in a big garden with her mommy and daddy and many other bunnies. Every day, she would hop around and look for the juiciest and crunchiest carrots to nibble on.
+
+One day, she saw a big orange carrot that looked very yummy. It was on the other side of the fence, near the road. Lily wanted to get the carrot, but she knew it was dangerous to go near the road. There were big noisy cars that could hurt her.
+
+She asked her mommy, "Mommy, can I have that carrot, please? It looks so good!"
+
+Her mommy said, "No, Lily, you can't have that carrot. It is too far and too risky. There are plenty of carrots in our garden. Stay here with me and be safe."
+
+But Lily did not listen to her mommy. She was very stubborn and greedy. She waited until her mommy was busy with something else, and then she sneaked out of the fence. She ran across the road, dodging the cars. She reached the carrot and took a big bite.
+
+She was so happy, she did not notice the car that was coming fast behind her. The car hit her and made a loud bang. Lily felt a lot of pain and then nothing. She was gone.
+
+Her mommy heard the bang and looked for Lily. She saw her lying on the road, with the carrot in her mouth. She was very sad and cried a lot. She wished Lily had listened to her and stayed in the garden. She missed her cute bunny very much.
+Lila and Tom were playing in the snow. They saw a big black reindeer in the woods. They wanted to touch it and feed it.
+
+"Let's go and say hello to the reindeer," Lila said.
+
+"OK, but be careful. It might be scared of us," Tom said.
+
+They stepped closer to the reindeer. It had shiny antlers and a soft nose. It looked at them with big brown eyes.
+
+"Hello, reindeer. We are Lila and Tom. We are your friends. Do you want some carrots?" Lila said.
+
+She held out a carrot to the reindeer. The reindeer sniffed it and took a bite. It made a happy sound.
+
+"See, it likes us. It is so nice and gentle," Lila said.
+
+She stepped closer to the reindeer and tried to hug it. But the reindeer did not like that. It felt trapped and scared. It kicked Lila with its hoof and ran away.
+
+Lila fell to the ground. She cried out in pain. She had a big bruise on her leg. Tom ran to her and helped her up.
+
+"Are you OK, Lila? That was a bad reindeer. It hurt you," Tom said.
+
+He hugged Lila and tried to comfort her. They walked back to their house. They told their mom what happened. She put some ice on Lila's bruise and gave her a kiss.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lila. You should not try to hug wild animals. They are not like pets. They can be dangerous and unpredictable. You should always keep a safe distance from them and respect their space," mom said.
+
+Lila nodded. She learned her lesson. She was sad and sore. She wished she had not stepped too close to the black reindeer.
+Tommy was a boy who liked to taste everything. He tasted his toys, his books, his clothes, and even his mom's lipstick. He thought tasting was fun and he wanted to learn more about the world.
+
+One day, he saw a big calendar on the wall. It had many pictures of animals and plants and numbers. Tommy was curious and wanted to taste it. He climbed on a chair and reached for the calendar. He tore off a piece and put it in his mouth.
+
+"Yuck!" he said. "This is not good. This is paper. Paper is not food. Paper is for writing and drawing and looking. Why did I taste this?"
+
+He heard his mom coming and quickly hid the piece of paper under his tongue. He hoped she would not notice.
+
+"Hi, Tommy," his mom said. "What are you doing?"
+
+"Nothing, mom," Tommy said. But his voice sounded funny and his mouth was full.
+
+"Tommy, are you hiding something?" his mom asked. "Open your mouth and show me."
+
+Tommy felt embarrassed. He knew he did something wrong. He opened his mouth and spit out the piece of paper. He saw his mom's face and knew she was not happy.
+
+"Tommy, why did you taste the calendar?" his mom asked. "That was not nice. You ruined the calendar and you could have hurt yourself. Paper is not for eating. You should only taste things that are food or that I give you. Do you understand?"
+
+Tommy nodded. He felt sorry and ashamed. He said, "I'm sorry, mom. I won't taste the calendar again. I won't taste anything that is not food. I will listen to you and be good."
+
+His mom hugged him and said, "I'm glad you learned your lesson, Tommy. I love you and I want you to be safe and healthy. Next time, if you are curious about something, you can ask me or look at it or touch it, but not taste it. OK?"
+
+Tommy smiled and said, "OK, mom. I love you too. Can we look at the calendar together and learn about the animals and plants and numbers?"
+
+His mom smiled and said, "Of course, Tommy. That sounds like a great idea. Let's do that."
+
+They took the calendar and sat on the couch. They looked at the pictures and talked about them. Tommy learned a lot and had fun. He did not taste anything else that day. He was happy and proud. He knew that tasting was not always the best way to learn. He knew that listening to his mom and asking questions was better. He knew that he was a good boy.
+Tim and Lily went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and elephants. They liked the animals, but they liked the penguins best. The penguins were black and white and had funny beaks. They swam in the water and waddled on the ice.
+
+Tim and Lily wanted to touch a penguin. They asked their mom if they could. Mom said no, the penguins were not for touching. They were wild animals and they could bite. Tim and Lily were sad, but they listened to their mom.
+
+But then, Tim saw a penguin that was alone. It was near the fence. Tim thought it looked friendly. He wanted to pet it. He did not listen to his mom. He ran to the fence and reached his hand to the penguin.
+
+The penguin did not like that. It was scared of Tim. It opened its beak and bit Tim's finger. Tim felt a lot of pain. He let go of the penguin and screamed. Lily heard Tim scream. She ran to him and saw his finger bleeding. She screamed too. Mom heard them scream. She ran to them and saw what happened. She was angry and worried.
+
+She took Tim's hand and wrapped it with a cloth. She told Tim he was very naughty. He should not touch the penguins. He could have hurt the penguin and himself. She told Lily she was sorry she was scared. She hugged them both and took them to the nurse. The nurse cleaned Tim's finger and put a band-aid on it. She gave Tim and Lily a sticker and a lollipop. She told them to be careful and respectful of the animals. Tim and Lily said sorry and thank you. They learned their lesson. They did not touch the penguins again.
+One day, Lily and Max were playing in the garden. They saw a big cauliflower growing in a pot. Lily wanted to pick it and make a salad. Max wanted to leave it and watch it grow.
+
+"Please, Lily, don't take the cauliflower. It is not ready yet. It needs more sun and water," Max said.
+
+"But I am hungry, Max. And I like cauliflower. It is good and crunchy. Please, let me have it," Lily said.
+
+They both pulled on the cauliflower. It broke in half. They both looked sad and angry.
+
+"You are bad, Lily. You broke the cauliflower. Now we can't have any," Max said.
+
+"You are bad, Max. You didn't share the cauliflower. Now we can't have any," Lily said.
+
+They both turned away and stopped talking to each other.
+
+Mama came out and saw them. She saw the broken cauliflower and the unhappy faces.
+
+"What happened, my loves? Why are you not playing?" Mama asked.
+
+They both told Mama what happened. They both blamed each other.
+
+Mama hugged them and said, "I understand, my loves. You both wanted the cauliflower. But you both made a mistake. You didn't listen to each other. You didn't respect the plant. You didn't work together. You hurt each other's feelings."
+
+She gave them each a piece of the cauliflower. She said, "This is still good, my loves. You can still eat it. But you have to do something first. You have to say sorry to each other. You have to forgive each other. You have to be kind and gentle. You have to be friends again."
+
+Lily and Max looked at each other. They felt sorry for what they did. They said sorry to each other. They hugged and said, "I forgive you. You are my friend. I love you."
+
+Mama smiled and said, "That's good, my loves. That's very good. You learned a lesson today. You learned to share and care. You learned to forgive and love. You learned to be good."
+
+They all ate the cauliflower together. It was good and crunchy. They were happy and grateful. They thanked Mama and the plant. They played in the garden again. They were good.
+Sara and Tom are playing in the park. They like to slide and swing and run. Sara sees a big hill and wants to climb it. She says to Tom, "Let's go up the hill and see what is there."
+
+Tom is scared of the hill. He thinks it is too high and steep. He says to Sara, "No, I don't want to go. It is too hard and dangerous. We might fall and hurt our knees."
+
+Sara is angry with Tom. She thinks he is a baby and a coward. She says to Tom, "You are no fun. You are deaf to my words. I will go by myself and you can stay here and cry."
+
+Sara runs to the hill and starts to climb. She does not listen to Tom, who calls after her, "Sara, wait, come back, please." She wants to make it to the top and see the whole park.
+
+But the hill is slippery and rocky. Sara loses her balance and falls. She screams and cries. She scrapes her knee and it bleeds. She is hurt and scared and alone.
+
+Tom hears Sara and runs to help her. He is sorry he was mean to her. He says to Sara, "Sara, I am here, don't worry, I will make you feel better." He hugs her and wipes her tears. He takes a band-aid from his pocket and puts it on her knee. He says to Sara, "I am sorry I was deaf to your words. I was afraid of the hill, but I should have gone with you. You are brave and strong and fun."
+
+Sara smiles and says to Tom, "Thank you, Tom. You are kind and sweet and a good friend. I am sorry I was angry with you. I was silly to climb the hill, but I wanted to see what was there. You are not a baby or a coward. You are smart and careful and a good friend."
+
+Tom and Sara hug and say sorry. They walk back to the park and play some more. They are happy and they are friends.
+Sara and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the garden with their toys. Sara had a doll and Tom had a car. They shared their toys and had fun.
+
+One day, they found a small bird in the garden. It was not moving. Sara and Tom felt sad. They wanted to help the bird.
+
+"Maybe it is sleeping," Sara said.
+
+"Maybe it is sick," Tom said.
+
+They decided to take the bird to their house. They put it in a shoe box with some grass and water. They hoped the bird would wake up and fly away.
+
+But the bird did not wake up. The next day, it was still not moving. Sara and Tom knew the bird was dead. They cried and hugged each other.
+
+"We have to bury the bird," Sara said. "That is what people do when someone dies. They bury them in the ground and say goodbye."
+
+"OK," Tom said. "But where do we bury it?"
+
+They thought for a while. Then they remembered their favorite spot in the garden. It was under a big tree with a swing. They loved to swing and watch the sky.
+
+They took the shoe box and a shovel. They dug a hole under the tree. They put the bird in the hole and covered it with dirt. They said a prayer and thanked the bird for its life.
+
+They made a cross with two sticks and put it on the grave. They picked some flowers and put them on the cross.
+
+"Goodbye, bird," Sara said. "We will miss you."
+
+"Goodbye, bird," Tom said. "We will remember you."
+
+They held hands and walked back to their house. They felt sad, but they also felt happy. They had each other. They were best friends. They were dependable. They knew they would always be there for each other.
+Sara and Ben were twins who loved to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a magic wand that could make things shrink or grow. They liked to shrink their dolls and cars and put them in their pockets, or grow their blocks and books and make big forts.
+
+One day, their mom made a beautiful dessert for them. It was a cake with pink frosting and sprinkles. She put it on the table and told them to wait until after dinner. Sara and Ben looked at the cake and their eyes grew big. They wanted to eat it right away.
+
+"Let's use the magic wand to shrink the cake and eat it now," Sara whispered to Ben. "Mom won't notice."
+
+Ben nodded and they sneaked the wand from their room. They pointed it at the cake and said the magic word. The cake became very small, like a cookie. They smiled and picked it up.
+
+But before they could take a bite, they heard their mom coming back. They quickly hid the cake and the wand under a napkin. Mom set the plates and forks on the table and looked at the cake.
+
+"Where is the cake?" she asked, surprised. "I left it right here."
+
+Sara and Ben felt guilty. They knew they had done something bad. They looked at each other and decided to tell the truth.
+
+"Mom, we're sorry," Sara said. "We used the magic wand to shrink the cake and we wanted to eat it."
+
+Mom lifted the napkin and saw the tiny cake. She was not happy. She took the wand and the cake and put them away.
+
+"Sara and Ben, you know you should not use the magic wand without permission. And you should not take the dessert before dinner. That is not nice. You have to wait and share with everyone. Now you have no cake and no wand. How do you feel?"
+
+Sara and Ben felt sad and ashamed. They realized they had been selfish and greedy. They hugged their mom and said they were sorry.
+
+"We feel bad, Mom. We're sorry we took the cake and the wand. We won't do it again. We love you and we love the cake. Can we have some after dinner?"
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them back. She forgave them and said they could have some cake after dinner, but only a small piece. She also said they could have the wand back tomorrow, but only if they promised to use it wisely and kindly.
+
+Sara and Ben agreed and thanked their mom. They learned their lesson and never tried to shrink the dessert again. They also learned to be patient and grateful for what they had. They enjoyed their dinner and their cake, and played with their toys happily. They knew that the magic wand was fun, but not as important as their mom and their love.
+Tom and Lily are playing in the park. They like to slide, swing and run. They see a big gate with a lock. They want to know what is behind the gate.
+
+"Let's go and look," says Tom.
+
+"OK, but we have to hurry. Mom will come soon," says Lily.
+
+They run to the gate and try to open it. The lock is hard and heavy. They cannot move it.
+
+"Maybe we need a key," says Lily.
+
+"Or maybe we can climb over the gate," says Tom.
+
+They look for a way to climb. They see a big tree next to the gate. The tree has many branches.
+
+"Look, we can use the tree," says Tom.
+
+He jumps and grabs a branch. He pulls himself up. He sees a big garden behind the gate. There are flowers, birds and a pond.
+
+"Wow, it's so pretty," he says.
+
+He calls Lily to join him. Lily tries to jump and grab a branch. She is too small. She cannot reach it.
+
+"Tom, help me," she says.
+
+Tom reaches his hand to Lily. He tries to pull her up. He is not strong enough. He cannot lift her.
+
+"Lily, I'm sorry. I can't help you," he says.
+
+He hears a voice. It is Mom. She is looking for them.
+
+"Tom, Lily, where are you?" she says.
+
+Tom and Lily are scared. They know they are in trouble. They did something bad.
+
+"Mom, we are here," they say.
+
+Mom sees them at the gate. She is angry and worried.
+
+"What are you doing there? How did you get there?" she says.
+
+She opens the lock with a key. She takes them out of the gate. She hugs them and scolds them.
+
+"You should not go to places you don't know. You could get hurt or lost. You should listen to me and stay in the park. Do you understand?" she says.
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They are sorry. They say sorry to Mom.
+
+"We are sorry, Mom. We were curious. We wanted to see the garden. It was not easy to get there," they say.
+
+Mom sighs. She is not happy, but she loves them.
+
+"I know you were curious, but you have to be careful. The garden is not for you. It belongs to someone else. You have to respect other people's things. Do you understand?" she says.
+
+Tom and Lily nod. They understand. They say sorry to Mom again.
+
+"We understand, Mom. We are sorry. We will respect other people's things," they say.
+
+Mom smiles. She forgives them.
+
+"OK, I forgive you. But don't do it again. Now let's go home. It's time for dinner," she says.
+
+Tom and Lily hold Mom's hand. They walk home. They are happy to be with Mom. They learned a lesson. They will not go to the gate again.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to pretend they were fairies and elves. They found a big mushroom under a tree. It was red and white and looked like a house.
+
+"Wow, look at this mushroom!" Lily said. "Can we pretend it is our home?"
+
+"Sure, let's go inside!" Ben said. They crawled under the mushroom and pretended it had rooms and furniture.
+
+They had fun playing with their imaginary things. They pretended to cook, read, and sleep. They were very happy.
+
+But then, they heard a loud noise. It was their dog, Rex. He was running towards them, barking and wagging his tail. He wanted to play too.
+
+"Rex, no!" Lily shouted. "This is our mushroom home, you can't come in!"
+
+But Rex did not listen. He jumped on the mushroom and tried to bite it. He broke the mushroom with his teeth and paws. He made a big mess.
+
+Lily and Ben were very sad. They cried and hugged each other. They loved their mushroom home and now it was gone.
+
+Rex felt sorry. He licked their faces and wagged his tail. He wanted to say sorry.
+
+Lily and Ben looked at Rex. They saw he was not mean, he was just playful. They forgave him and hugged him back.
+
+They learned a lesson. They learned that mushrooms are delicate and can break easily. They learned that they should be careful with nature and not hurt it. They learned that they should share their games with their friends and not be selfish. They learned that they can still have fun with their imagination, even without a mushroom home.
+Lily liked to play with her cat, Max. She would hug him, pet him, and give him treats. But sometimes, Lily was too rough with Max. She would pull his tail, squeeze his fur, and push him off the couch. Max did not like that. He would hiss, scratch, and run away.
+
+One day, Lily pushed Max too hard. He fell off the couch and hit his head on the floor. He cried out in pain and hid under the bed. Lily felt bad. She did not mean to hurt Max. She wanted to say sorry, but Max did not come out.
+
+Lily's mom heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw Lily crying and Max under the bed. She asked Lily what she did. Lily told her the truth. She said she pushed Max and he got hurt.
+
+Lily's mom was not happy. She said, "Lily, you should not push Max. He is your friend, not your toy. Pushing is harsh and mean. It can make him sad and scared. How would you feel if someone pushed you?"
+
+Lily thought about it. She said, "I would feel bad. I would not like it. I love Max. I don't want to make him sad and scared."
+
+Lily's mom said, "Then you should be gentle and kind to Max. You should treat him the way you want to be treated. That is the right thing to do. Can you do that?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "Yes, mom. I can do that. I will be gentle and kind to Max. I will not push him anymore. Can I say sorry to him?"
+
+Lily's mom said, "Of course. But you have to wait until he is ready to come out. He might need some time to calm down. You can leave him a treat and a toy near the bed. Maybe he will forgive you."
+
+Lily did what her mom said. She left a treat and a toy for Max near the bed. She said, "I'm sorry, Max. I love you. Please come out and play with me."
+
+She waited patiently for Max to come out. After a while, she heard a purr and saw a whisker. Max peeked out from under the bed. He saw the treat and the toy. He smelled Lily's hand. He licked her finger. He forgave her.
+
+Lily was happy. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Max. You are my best friend. I will be gentle and kind to you. I will not push you anymore."
+
+Max meowed and rubbed his head against her. He was happy too. He said, "You're welcome, Lily. You are my best friend too. I love you."
+
+They hugged and played together. They learned to be gentle and kind to each other. They were happy.
+Lily and Max wanted to decorate their room for the queen. The queen was coming to visit their school and they hoped she would see their room. They had many things to decorate with: paper, crayons, stickers, ribbons and glitter.
+
+They drew pictures of the queen, the castle, the flag and the crown. They used many colors and shapes. They stuck the pictures on the wall with tape. They made a big banner that said "Welcome Queen" with ribbons and glitter. They hung the banner on the door.
+
+They were very proud of their work. They showed their mom and dad. Mom and dad smiled and said it was very pretty. They helped them put on their best clothes. Lily wore a pink dress and Max wore a blue shirt. They were very tight, but they did not mind.
+
+They went to school with mom and dad. They saw many other children and teachers. They all waited for the queen. They heard a loud noise. It was the queen's car. They saw the queen get out of the car. She wore a long dress and a shiny crown. She waved and smiled.
+
+She walked to the school. She saw the banner on the door. She stopped and looked. She read the words. She said, "What a lovely banner! Who made it?" Lily and Max raised their hands. They said, "We did, we did!" The queen smiled and said, "You did a wonderful job. Thank you for decorating your room for me. You are very clever and kind." She gave them a hug and a kiss. Lily and Max were very happy. They felt like they were the king and the queen.
+Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play near the sea. They had a small boat that they made from wood and cloth. They liked to sail their boat on the water and pretend they were pirates.
+
+One day, they saw a big boat with many people on it. The people were waving at them and smiling. Tim and Kim wanted to wave back, but they were afraid. They thought the people might take their boat or laugh at them.
+
+"Let's hide, Tim," Kim said. "They are strangers and they might be mean."
+
+"No, Kim," Tim said. "They are friendly and they might be nice. Let's wave and say hello."
+
+Tim and Kim waved at the big boat and shouted hello. The people on the boat waved back and shouted hello too. They asked Tim and Kim what their names were and where they lived. They told them they were tourists who came to see the sea and the town. They said they liked Tim and Kim's boat and asked if they could see it closer.
+
+Tim and Kim agreed and sailed their boat to the big boat. The people on the big boat helped them climb up and gave them cookies and juice. They showed them around the big boat and told them stories about their travels. They said they were proud of Tim and Kim for being brave and kind.
+
+Tim and Kim had a lot of fun and made new friends. They learned that waving and saying hello can be a good way to start a conversation and a friendship. They also learned that people can be different and still be nice. They were happy and successful.
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't be afraid of strangers, be friendly and curious. You might find new friends and learn new things.
+Tim and Sam like to play football. They have a big ball that is black and white. They kick the ball to each other in the park. They move fast and have fun.
+
+One day, a big dog comes to the park. The dog sees the ball and wants to play too. The dog runs to the ball and bites it. The ball pops and makes a loud noise. Tim and Sam are scared and sad.
+
+The dog's owner comes and says sorry. He gives Tim and Sam a new ball. It is red and yellow. He says the dog did not mean to hurt the ball. He says the dog likes to play too.

+
+"Look, Lily, a bird!" Ben says. He points at the bird.
+
+"Wow, a bird!" Lily says. She claps her hands. "What is it?"
+
+"I don't know. Maybe a parrot?" Ben says.
+
+"Hello, hello!" the bird says. It makes a funny sound.
+
+Lily and Ben are surprised. The bird can talk!
+
+"Hello, bird!" Lily says. She waves at the bird.
+
+"Hello, hello!" the bird says again. It waves back with its wing.
+
+"Can you say more words, bird?" Ben asks.
+
+"More words, more words!" the bird says. It bobs its head.
+
+Lily and Ben laugh. They think the bird is funny and smart.
+
+They play with the bird for a while. They teach it some words, like their names, and the bird repeats them.
+
+Then, they hear their moms calling them. It is time to go home.
+
+"Bye, bird!" Lily says. She gives the bird a kiss.
+
+"Bye, bye!" the bird says. It gives Lily a kiss too.
+
+"Bye, bird!" Ben says. He hugs the bird.
+
+"Bye, bye!" the bird says. It hugs Ben too.
+
+Lily and Ben wave at the bird. The bird waves at them.
+
+They run to their moms. They tell them about the bird.
+
+They are happy. They hope to see the bird again.
+Once upon a time, there was a fearful little boy named Tim. He was scared of loud noises. One day, his dad needed to fix a chair with a hammer. Tim saw the hammer and felt scared.
+
+"Tim, let's improve the chair together," said his dad. Tim was very afraid, but he wanted to be brave.
+
+Tim and his dad started to fix the chair. They used the hammer to hit the nails. Tim was still scared, but he tried to be brave. After a while, Tim felt better. He was not scared of the hammer anymore.
+
+"Good job, Tim! You improved the chair and you were brave," said his dad. Tim felt happy and proud. From that day on, Tim was not scared of hammers anymore.
+One day, a girl named Lily was very bored. She did not want to play with her toys. She did not want to watch TV. She wanted to do something new and fun. So, she went to her big sister, Mia, for help.
+
+Mia thought for a moment and then said, "Lily, let's play a game with our minds. We can use our minds to make a fun game that is not boring." Lily liked the idea and was excited to play the game.
+
+Mia told Lily to close her eyes and think of a happy place. Lily thought of a beautiful park with lots of flowers and trees. In her mind, she played with her friends and had a great time. The game was not boring at all! Lily and Mia played the mind game all day, and they were very happy.

+Mia came back to the kitchen with the hay. She and her mom mixed all the things to make the cake. Mia said, "Mommy, I was worried about getting the hay, but now I am happy we are baking together." They put the cake in the oven and waited for it to bake.
+
+When the cake was ready, Mia and her mom took it out of the oven. It smelled so good! They put candles on top and sang a happy song. Mia and her mom enjoyed the yummy cake they baked together with hay.
+Once upon a time, there was a mighty bird named Blue. Blue loved to fly high in the sky. One day, Blue saw a shiny thing on the ground. It was a mine full of pretty rocks.
+
+Blue flew down to the mine and met a small bug named Tiny. Tiny said, "Hi, I am Tiny! This is my mine." Blue and Tiny became good friends. They played together every day.
+

+
+As she was eating, her dog, Spot, came in. Spot was a little confused because he saw Lily lay down on the floor with the yogurt. "Why are you laying down?" asked Spot. Lily smiled and said, "I want to share my yogurt with you, Spot!"
+
+Spot was happy and wagged his tail. He lay down next to Lily, and they ate the yogurt together. They laughed and played, having a fun time. When they finished the yogurt, Lily gave Spot a big hug.

+
+One day, Sue and Max went to the park. They saw a boy with a real dog. The dog had a chain around its neck. The boy was holding the chain to keep the dog close to him.
+
+Sue went up to the boy and said, "Hi! I like your dog. Can I pet him?" The boy said, "Sure, he is good and nice." Sue pet the dog and it wagged its tail. The boy offered the chain to Sue and said, "You can hold him if you want." Sue held the chain and felt so happy.
+
+Sue, Max, the boy, and his dog all played together in the park. They had a great time and made new friends. And from that day on, they always played together at the park.
+Anna and Ben like to play with blocks. They make different structures with the blocks. Sometimes they make houses, sometimes they make towers, sometimes they make bridges.
+
+One day, they decide to make a big structure with all the blocks. They work hard and raise the blocks one by one. They make a tall and wide structure that looks like a castle.
+
+"Wow, this is the best structure ever!" Anna says. "We are so good at building!"
+
+"Yes, we are!" Ben agrees. "But we have to be careful. We don't want it to fall down."
+
+They look at their structure with pride and joy. They think it is very beautiful and strong.
+
+But then, they hear a loud noise. It is their little brother, Sam. He is running towards them. He does not see their structure. He is holding a ball.
+
+"Sam, stop!" Anna shouts. "Don't come here! You will break our structure!"
+
+But Sam does not hear her. He is too excited. He throws the ball in the air. The ball hits their structure. The structure falls down. The blocks scatter everywhere.
+
+Anna and Ben are very sad and angry. They worked so hard on their structure. And now it is gone. They look at Sam. He looks scared and sorry.
+
+"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Sam says. "I didn't mean to break your structure. I didn't see it. I just wanted to play with you."
+
+Anna and Ben feel their sadness and anger fade away. They see that Sam is their brother. He is not bad. He made a mistake. He is sorry. They are compassionate. They forgive him.
+
+"It's okay, Sam," Anna says. "We are not mad at you. We know you didn't mean it. But next time, please be careful."
+
+"Yes, Sam," Ben says. "And you can play with us. We can make another structure together. We can make it even better."
+
+Sam smiles. He hugs Anna and Ben. He says thank you. They hug him back. They say you're welcome.
+
+They pick up the blocks. They start to make a new structure. They help each other. They have fun. They are happy.
+Lily was lonely. She had no friends to play with at school. She liked to draw and sing, but the other kids did not. They liked to run and kick and shout. Lily felt sad.
+
+One day, she found an envelope in her backpack. It was pink and had a sticker of a unicorn on it. She opened it and saw a card. It said: "You are invited to Anna's birthday party. It is on Saturday at the park. There will be cake and games and fun. Please come. Love, Anna."
+
+Lily was surprised. She did not know Anna very well. Anna was in her class, but she was quiet and shy. She also liked to draw and sing, but she never talked to Lily. Lily wondered why Anna invited her.
+
+She decided to go to the party. She made a card for Anna and drew a unicorn on it. She also bought a small gift: a book of fairy tales. She hoped Anna would like it.
+
+On Saturday, she went to the park with her mom. She saw Anna and her mom by a big tree. There were balloons and streamers and a sign that said: "Happy Birthday, Anna!" Lily walked up to them and said: "Hi, Anna. Thank you for inviting me. This is for you." She gave Anna the card and the gift.
+
+Anna smiled and said: "Hi, Lily. Thank you for coming. I like your card and your gift. They are very nice. Do you want to play with me?"
+
+Lily nodded and said: "Yes, I do. What do you want to play?"
+
+Anna said: "Let's play with the unicorn. She is my favorite toy. She can fly and grant wishes. Do you like unicorns?"
+
+Lily said: "I love unicorns. They are magical and beautiful. Can I hold her?"
+
+Anna said: "Of course. She is your friend too. Come on, let's go."
+
+Lily and Anna ran to the unicorn and hugged her. They pretended to fly and make wishes. They laughed and sang. They had fun.
+
+Lily was not lonely anymore. She had a new friend. Anna was not lonely anymore. She had a new friend. They were happy.
+Tom and Anna wanted to build a big house with their blocks. They had many blocks of different colors and shapes. They put some blocks on the floor and stacked them up. They made walls and a roof and a door.
+
+"Look, our house is almost done!" Tom said. "We just need a window."
+
+"I have a block for the window," Anna said. She picked up a yellow block and tried to fit it in the gap. But the block was too big and it made the wall fall down.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom and Anna said. "Our house is broken!"
+
+They looked at the pile of blocks and felt sad. They did not want to start over. They wanted to play with their house.
+
+Just then, their mom came in the room. She saw the blocks and the kids.
+
+"What are you doing, my loves?" she asked.
+
+"We were trying to build a house, but it fell down," Tom said.
+
+"We don't have a window," Anna said.
+
+Mom smiled and hugged them. "Don't worry, I have a surprise for you," she said. "Come with me to the kitchen."
+
+She took them by the hand and led them to the kitchen. There, on the table, was a big turkey. It smelled good and looked yummy.
+
+"Wow, a turkey!" Tom and Anna said. "Is it for us?"
+
+"Yes, it is," Mom said. "It's Thanksgiving, and we have a lot to be thankful for. Like our family, our home, and our toys. And this turkey, which is available for us to eat and share."
+
+Tom and Anna smiled and hugged Mom. They forgot about their broken house. They were happy to have a turkey and a mom who loved them. They said thank you and helped Mom set the table. They had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
+Sara and Ben love pumpkin pie. They help mom make it for Thanksgiving. They mix the pumpkin, the eggs, the milk and the sugar in a big bowl. They pour it into a crust. Mom puts it in the oven.
+
+They wait and wait. They smell the pie. It smells so good. They are eager to eat it. They ask mom, "Is it ready yet?"
+
+Mom says, "Not yet, sweeties. We have to wait for the timer to beep. Then we have to let it cool down a little bit. Then we can serve it."
+
+Sara and Ben nod. They play with their toys. They hear the timer beep. They run to the kitchen. They see the pie. It is golden and yummy.
+
+Mom says, "Good job, Sara and Ben. You helped me make a delicious pie. Now we can serve it to our family. But first, we have to say thank you to God for all our blessings."
+
+Sara and Ben say thank you. They hold hands. They go to the dining room. They see dad, grandma, grandpa, aunt, uncle and cousins. They are all happy. They smile at Sara and Ben.
+
+Mom serves the pie. She gives everyone a big slice. Sara and Ben get the first ones. They take a bite. They close their eyes. They say, "Mmm, this is the best pumpkin pie ever!"
+Ben and Lily were twins who liked to play near the river. They knew they had to be careful and not go too close to the water, because their mom and dad told them so. But one day, they saw a big, shiny rock on the other side of the river. They wanted to touch it and see if it was smooth or rough.
+
+"Let's go get the rock!" Ben said.
+
+"No, we can't. It's too far and the river is too fast. We have to remain here," Lily said.
+
+"But it's so pretty! Maybe it's a magic rock. Come on, it will be fun!" Ben said.
+
+He did not listen to Lily and ran towards the river. He tried to jump over it, but he slipped and fell into the water. He screamed and splashed, but the river was too strong and carried him away.
+
+Lily was very scared and sad. She ran to get help from their mom and dad, who were nearby. They heard her cry and followed her to the river. They saw Ben floating away and quickly got a long stick. They reached out to Ben and pulled him out of the river. He was wet and cold and crying.
+
+"Ben, you were very naughty! You could have drowned in the river! Why did you not listen to Lily and remain here?" their mom said.
+
+"I'm sorry, mom. I wanted the rock. I thought it was magic," Ben said.
+
+"It's not magic, it's just a rock. And it's not worth risking your life for. You have to be more careful and obey us. We love you and we don't want you to get hurt," their dad said.
+
+They hugged Ben and Lily and took them home. They gave them warm clothes and soup and cuddled them on the couch. Ben and Lily learned their lesson and never went near the river again without their parents. They also said sorry to each other and promised to be good twins.
+Sara and Ben were very happy. They were going on vacation with Mom and Dad. They packed their bags and got in the car. Mom and Dad said they were going to a place with a big lake and a lot of trees.
+
+"Can we swim in the lake?" Sara asked.
+
+"Maybe, if the water is not too cold," Dad said.
+
+"Can we see any animals?" Ben asked.
+
+"Maybe, if we are quiet and lucky," Mom said.
+
+Sara and Ben hoped to see some animals. They liked animals, especially hairy ones. They had a dog at home, but he was too old to come with them. They missed him a lot.
+
+They drove for a long time, and then they saw a sign that said "Welcome to the cabin". They turned off the road and followed a dirt path. They saw a wooden house with a porch and a chimney. It looked cozy and nice.
+
+"Here we are!" Dad said. "Let's unload the car and explore the cabin."
+
+They got out of the car and carried their bags inside. The cabin had a living room, a kitchen, two bedrooms, and a bathroom. It also had a fireplace, a sofa, a table, and some chairs. Sara and Ben liked the cabin. They ran to the bedrooms and picked their beds.
+
+"I want this one!" Sara said, pointing to a bed with a pink quilt.
+
+"I want this one!" Ben said, pointing to a bed with a blue quilt.
+
+They put their bags on their beds and went back to the living room. Mom and Dad were making a fire in the fireplace.
+
+"Can we go outside and play?" Sara asked.
+
+"Not now, sweetie," Mom said. "It's getting dark and cold. We'll go outside tomorrow, after breakfast."
+
+"But I want to go outside now!" Sara said. She stamped her foot and crossed her arms. She was very angry. She wanted to see the lake and the trees and the animals. She did not want to wait until tomorrow. She demanded to go outside.
+
+"Sara, don't be rude," Dad said. "We're all tired from the drive. We need to rest and relax. We'll have plenty of time to play outside tomorrow. Now, why don't you sit on the sofa and read a book or play a game with Ben?"
+
+Sara did not listen to Dad. She did not want to sit on the sofa and read a book or play a game with Ben. She wanted to go outside. She ran to the door and opened it. She saw the moon and the stars and the shadows of the trees. She heard the wind and the crickets and the owls. She felt the cold and the breeze and the grass. She smelled the wood and the smoke and the pine. She thought it was beautiful and exciting. She stepped outside and closed the door behind her.
+
+She did not see the eyes and the teeth and the claws. She did not hear the growl and the snarl and the roar. She did not feel the fur and the fangs and the pain. She did not smell the blood and the fear and the death.
+
+She only saw a big, hairy animal. And then she saw nothing at all.
+Lily and Ben were twins who loved to eat pastries. One day, their mom baked some apple pies and put them on the table to cool. She told Lily and Ben not to touch the pies until after dinner.
+
+But Lily and Ben were very hungry and curious. They wanted to taste the pies right away. They looked at each other and nodded. They decided to sneak a piece of pie when mom was not looking.
+
+They tiptoed to the table and reached for the pies. But as soon as they touched them, they felt a hot pain in their fingers. The pies were still very hot from the oven. Lily and Ben cried out loud and dropped the pies on the floor.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to the kitchen. She saw the mess and the tears on Lily and Ben's faces. She was angry and sad. She asked them why they disobeyed her.
+
+Lily and Ben felt sorry and ashamed. They knew they did a bad thing. They hugged mom and said they were sorry. They told her they wanted to try the pies because they looked so yummy. They said they were brave to touch the hot pies.
+
+Mom sighed and hugged them back. She said she was glad they were honest and brave, but they should also be patient and careful. She said she loved them and forgave them. She said they could have a small piece of pie after dinner, but only if they ate their vegetables first.
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and smiled. They said they loved mom and thanked her. They said they would eat their vegetables and wait for the pie. They said they learned their lesson and would not touch hot things again. They said they were sorry for wasting the pies.
+
+Mom smiled and kissed them. She said she was proud of them for telling the truth and saying sorry. She said they were good and sweet, just like the pies. She said she would make more pies another day, and they could help her bake them. She said they were her favorite pastries.
+Benny was a big dog who liked to run and play. He had a lot of fur that was soft and brown. He had a friend named Fifi, who was a small dog who liked to bark and jump. She had a lot of fur that was white and curly.
+
+One day, Benny and Fifi went to the park with their owners. They saw a lot of other dogs and people. They had fun chasing balls and sticks and each other. But then, Benny felt something itchy on his back. He scratched and scratched, but it did not go away. He looked and saw a tiny bug on his fur. It was a flea.
+
+"Hey, Fifi, look at this!" Benny said. "I have a flea on me. It is making me itch. How do I get rid of it?"
+
+Fifi came closer and looked at the flea. She said, "That is a bad flea. It is biting you and making you hurt. You need to close your mouth and snap at it. That will make it go away."
+
+Benny did what Fifi said. He closed his mouth and snapped at the flea. But he missed. The flea was too fast and too small. It jumped to another spot on his fur. Benny tried again and again, but he could not catch the flea. He got more and more itchy and more and more grumpy.
+
+"Stop it, Benny!" Fifi said. "You are making too much noise and too much fuss. You are scaring the other dogs and people. You are being silly. The flea is not that bad. Just ignore it. It will go away by itself."
+
+Benny did not like what Fifi said. He thought she was being mean and rude. He said, "No, Fifi, you are wrong. The flea is very bad. It is making me miserable. You do not understand. You do not have a flea on you. You are lucky. You are not my friend. Go away."
+
+Fifi was hurt by what Benny said. She thought he was being unfair and unkind. She said, "Fine, Benny, if that is how you feel. I was only trying to help you. You are not my friend either. Go away."
+
+And so, Benny and Fifi went their separate ways. They did not play or talk to each other for the rest of the day. They were both sad and lonely. They wished they had not fought over a flea. They wished they had been nicer to each other. They wished they were friends again.
+Tommy likes to watch the birds in the park. He likes their colors and their songs. He wants to have a bird as a friend. One day, he finds a birdcage in the trash. He thinks it is a good home for a bird. He takes it to his room and cleans it.
+
+The next day, he goes to the park with the birdcage. He sees a friendly bird on a tree. He calls to the bird and offers some seeds. The bird flies down and eats the seeds. Tommy is happy. He opens the birdcage and puts the bird inside. He closes the door and carries the birdcage home.
+
+He puts the birdcage on his window sill. He talks to the bird and gives it more seeds and water. He names the bird Sunny. Sunny chirps back and flaps its wings. Tommy thinks Sunny is happy too.
+
+But after a few days, Tommy notices that Sunny is not so cheerful. Sunny does not eat much or sing much. Sunny looks sad and lonely. Tommy wonders why.
+
+One morning, Tommy hears a knock on his window. He sees another bird outside. The bird looks like Sunny. It pecks at the glass and calls to Sunny. Sunny perks up and answers. Tommy realizes that the bird is Sunny's friend. He feels sorry for Sunny.
+
+He opens the window and the birdcage. He says to Sunny, "You can go with your friend. You belong in the sky, not in a cage. I will miss you, but I want you to be happy." Sunny hops out of the cage and joins the other bird. They fly away together. Tommy waves goodbye and smiles. He still likes birds, but he knows they are not his pets. He decides to make friends with other children instead.
+One day, Tom and Lily wanted to play a game. They looked for something fun in their room. They saw their mom's bathrobe. It was big and soft and pink.
+
+"Let's pretend we are superheroes!" Tom said. He put the bathrobe on and tied it around his neck. He felt strong and brave.
+
+"I want to be a superhero too!" Lily said. She grabbed the other end of the bathrobe and pulled it. Tom did not want to share. He pulled back. They both fell on the floor.
+
+Their mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Tom and Lily on the floor with her bathrobe. She was not happy.
+
+"What are you doing with my bathrobe?" she asked. "You could have ripped it or stained it!"
+
+Tom and Lily felt sorry. They did not mean to hurt the bathrobe. They just wanted to have fun.
+
+"We were playing superheroes, mom," Tom said. "The bathrobe was our cape. It was harmless."
+
+Mom sighed. She knew they were not bad kids. They were just curious and creative. She smiled and hugged them.
+
+"I'm glad you have a big imagination, but you need to ask before you use my things," she said. "Now, why don't you get your own capes and play outside? It's a sunny day."
+
+Tom and Lily nodded. They said sorry to mom and thanked her. They got their own capes from their closet. They were old towels with stickers on them. They ran outside and played superheroes. They had a lot of fun. Mom watched them from the window and smiled. She loved her kids.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to walk in the park and look at the sky. The sky is blue and has white clouds. Sometimes they see birds and planes.
+
+One day, they walk to the pond. They see ducks and fish. Lily wants to feed the ducks. She has some bread in her bag. She takes out a piece and throws it to the ducks.
+
+But Ben is hungry. He sees the bread and wants some too. He grabs the bag from Lily and opens it. He takes out another piece and eats it.
+
+Lily is angry. She says, "Ben, that is not nice! That is my bread! Give it back!"
+
+Ben says, "No, I want it! It is yummy!"
+
+They start to pull the bag. The bag rips. The bread falls out. The ducks come and eat the bread.
+
+Lily and Ben are sad. They have no bread left. They look at the ducks. The ducks are happy.
+
+Lily says, "Ben, I am sorry. I should have shared my bread with you."
+
+Ben says, "Lily, I am sorry too. I should not have taken your bread. You are my friend."
+
+They hug. They say, "We are sorry, ducks. We hope you enjoy the bread."
+
+The ducks quack. They say, "Thank you, Lily and Ben. You are kind."
+
+Lily and Ben smile. They walk back to the park. They look at the sky. The sky is still blue and has white clouds. They are happy.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play in the park. They like to jog and run and jump. They have a race every day. Tom is fast and Jen is slow. Tom always wins the race. Jen is sad.
+
+One day, Jen has an idea. She asks Tom, "Can we race to the big tree today?" Tom says, "Yes, that is easy. I will win again." Jen smiles. She knows something that Tom does not know.
+
+They start the race. Tom runs very fast. Jen runs slowly. Tom is far ahead of Jen. He thinks he will win. He does not see the big hill before the big tree. He gets tired and slows down. Jen is patient. She keeps running slowly. She sees the big hill. She runs up the hill. She passes Tom. She reaches the big tree first. She wins the race. She is happy.
+
+Tom is surprised. He says, "How did you do that? You are slow." Jen says, "I am slow, but I am smart. I knew there was a big hill. I saved my energy. You ran too fast. You got tired. I succeeded. I won the race." Tom says, "You are right. You are smart. You are a good friend. Can we race again tomorrow?" Jen says, "Yes, we can race again tomorrow. But you have to be patient. Maybe you will win next time." They hug and laugh. They are still friends.
+Anna liked to play with her marbles. She had many marbles of different colors and sizes. She liked to roll them, bounce them, and make patterns with them. Sometimes, she pretended they were planets or jewels or candy.
+
+One day, she found a new marble in her box. It was very big and shiny. It had swirls of blue and green and yellow. It looked like a rainbow. Anna wondered where it came from. She had never seen it before. It was mysterious.
+
+She picked it up and held it in her hand. It felt smooth and cool. She brought it close to her face and looked at it. It sparkled in the light. She wondered what it would taste like. She opened her mouth and put it in.
+
+It tasted very bad. It was hard and bitter and sour. Anna spat it out and made a face. She did not like the taste of the marble. She decided it was not candy. She put it back in the box and looked for another marble. She hoped it would taste better.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the big house. They liked to run and jump and hide. But they did not like the dark and scary basement. Mommy and Daddy told them to never go down the stairs to the basement. They said there were terrible things there that could hurt them.
+
+One day, Lily and Ben were playing hide and seek. Lily counted to ten and then looked for Ben. She looked in the kitchen, the living room, the bedroom, but she could not find him. She heard a noise from the basement door. She ran to the door and opened it. She saw Ben on the stairs. He was holding a flashlight and a toy sword. He looked at Lily and smiled.
+
+"Ben, what are you doing?" Lily asked. "You know we are not allowed to go to the basement. Mommy and Daddy warned us. It is dangerous and terrible."
+
+Ben shook his head. "No, it is not. It is fun and exciting. I want to see what is down there. Maybe there are dragons or pirates or treasures. Come with me, Lily. Don't be scared."
+
+Lily felt scared. She did not want to go to the basement. She wanted to go back to the big house. She grabbed Ben's hand and tried to pull him up. "No, Ben, no. We have to go back. Mommy and Daddy will be angry. And we could get hurt. Please, Ben, please."
+
+But Ben did not listen. He pulled his hand away and ran down the stairs. He shouted, "Come on, Lily. Don't be a baby. It will be fun."
+
+Lily did not follow him. She stayed on the top of the stairs. She cried and called for Mommy and Daddy. She hoped they would come soon and save Ben from the terrible things in the basement. She hoped Ben would be okay. She wished he had listened to her warning.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and building towers. But soon, they started to feel tired. They yawned and rubbed their eyes.
+
+"Are you sleepy, Ben?" Lily asked.
+
+"A little bit," Ben said. "But I don't want to stop playing."
+
+"Me too," Lily said. "But maybe we should take a nap. Mommy said naps are good for us."
+
+They looked at each other and nodded. They put their toys away and went to their bedroom. They climbed into their beds and pulled the blankets over them.
+
+But they did not fall asleep right away. They whispered and giggled and told each other stories. They did not hear Mommy coming upstairs.
+
+Mommy opened the door and saw them awake. She frowned and said, "Lily and Ben, what are you doing? You should be sleeping. It's nap time."
+
+Lily and Ben felt guilty. They knew they were not supposed to be talking. They looked at Mommy with big eyes and said, "Sorry, Mommy."
+
+Mommy smiled and said, "It's okay. I know you were having fun. But now it's time to rest. You need to be fresh and happy for the afternoon."
+
+She kissed them on their foreheads and said, "I love you, sweeties. Sleep well."
+
+She turned off the light and closed the door. Lily and Ben snuggled in their beds and closed their eyes. They yawned and said, "I love you, too, Mommy."
+
+They fell asleep and dreamed of more toys and games.
+Lily and Tom were best friends. They liked to play in the garden and look for bugs and flowers. One day, they found a big bean plant with many green beans. They picked some beans and put them in a basket.
+
+"Look, Lily, these beans are new and shiny. We can eat them for lunch," Tom said.
+
+"Or we can make a necklace with them. See, they have holes in them. We can use a string and tie them together," Lily said.
+
+"That's a good idea. Then we can wear them and look pretty," Tom said.
+
+They made two necklaces with the beans and put them on. They looked at each other and smiled.
+
+"Lily, you are my best friend. Do you want to marry me?" Tom asked.
+
+"Yes, Tom, I do. You are my best friend too. Let's marry," Lily said.
+
+They hugged and kissed. Then they ran to the house to show their parents their bean necklaces and tell them their news.
+
+"Mom, Dad, we have something to tell you. We are going to marry," Lily said.
+
+"Really? That's very sweet. But you are very young. You have to wait until you are older to marry," Mom said.
+
+"But we love each other. And we have bean necklaces. See?" Tom said.
+
+"They are very nice. But marriage is more than love and necklaces. It's a big decision that you have to think about carefully. Why don't you play some more and have lunch first?" Dad said.
+
+"Okay. But we still want to marry. Maybe when we are four," Lily said.
+
+"Maybe. We'll see. Now go and have fun," Mom said.
+
+Lily and Tom ran back to the garden. They played with their bean necklaces and pretended to be married. They were happy and had a lot of fun.
+Poppy was a small dog who liked to sleep a lot. He slept on the sofa, on the bed, on the rug, and sometimes even in the garden. He had a big family who loved him and gave him food and toys and hugs.
+
+One day, Poppy was sleeping on the sofa when he heard a loud noise outside. He opened his eyes and saw a big truck in front of the house. The truck had a long arm that grabbed the sofa and lifted it up. Poppy was scared and barked.
+
+"Help! Help!" he cried. "I don't want to go with the truck!"
+
+His family heard him and ran outside. They saw Poppy on the sofa in the air and shouted.
+
+"Stop! Stop!" they yelled. "That's our sofa and our dog!"
+
+The truck driver heard them and stopped the arm. He looked at the sofa and saw Poppy. He was surprised and sorry.
+
+"Oh, I'm sorry!" he said. "I didn't see the dog. I thought this was an old sofa that you wanted to throw away."
+
+He lowered the arm and put the sofa back on the ground. Poppy jumped off the sofa and ran to his family. They hugged him and kissed him and told him he was safe.
+
+"Thank you for saving me!" Poppy said. "That was very dangerous!"
+
+The truck driver apologized again and drove away. Poppy and his family went back inside the house. Poppy was tired and shaken from his adventure. He decided to sleep on the bed instead of the sofa. He curled up and closed his eyes. He dreamed of happy things and forgot about the truck. He was a lucky dog.
+Tom and Anna are twins. They like to go out with Mom and Dad. Today, they go to a restaurant. It is a big place with many tables and chairs. They see many foods and drinks.
+
+Tom and Anna sit next to each other. They have pizza and juice. They are happy. They talk and laugh. Mom and Dad smile.
+
+"Can I have some of your pizza?" Tom asks Anna.
+
+"No, it is mine. You have your own pizza," Anna says.
+
+"Please, just a little bit. I like your pizza more," Tom says.
+
+"No, it is not fair. You always want my things," Anna says.
+
+Tom is sad. He looks at his pizza. He does not want it anymore. He puts it on the edge of the table. He does not see the cat.
+
+The cat is hungry. It smells the pizza. It jumps on the table. It grabs the pizza with its mouth. It runs away.
+
+Tom sees the cat. He cries. He has no pizza. He is hungry.
+
+"Mom, Dad, the cat took my pizza!" Tom says.
+
+Mom and Dad look at the cat. They are surprised. They feel sorry for Tom.
+
+"Tom, we are sorry. The cat was naughty. It is not your fault. You did not lose your pizza. The cat stole it," Mom says.
+
+"Can I have some of Anna's pizza?" Tom asks.
+
+Anna looks at Tom. She sees his tears. She feels sorry for him too.
+
+"OK, Tom. You can have some of my pizza. It is fair. We are twins. We share," Anna says.
+
+She gives him a slice of her pizza. He smiles. He thanks her. He eats the pizza. He is happy.
+
+They hug each other. Mom and Dad hug them too. They are a happy family. They finish their meal. They leave the restaurant. They do not see the cat. The cat is full. It sleeps under a tree.
+Sara and Ben went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, like lions, monkeys, and zebras. But their favorite animal was the kangaroo. The kangaroo had a baby in her pouch. The baby was very small and cute.
+
+"Can we touch the baby kangaroo, mom?" Sara asked.
+
+"No, sweetie, we can't," mom said. "The baby kangaroo is fragile. That means he can break easily. We have to be gentle and quiet around him."
+
+"But I want to pet him," Ben said. He tried to climb over the fence.
+
+"Ben, stop!" mom said. "You are not allowed to go over the fence. That is dangerous. The kangaroo might get scared and kick you. You have to stay with me and Sara."
+
+Ben was sad. He wanted to be friends with the baby kangaroo. He looked at him with big eyes.
+
+The baby kangaroo looked back at Ben. He saw that Ben was not mean. He was just curious. He poked his head out of his mom's pouch. He made a soft noise.
+
+"Look, mom, he likes me!" Ben said. He smiled.
+
+"Maybe he does," mom said. "But you still have to respect his space. You can wave to him and say hello, but you can't touch him. OK?"
+
+"OK, mom," Ben said. He waved to the baby kangaroo and said, "Hello, little one. You are very cute. I hope you have a nice day."
+
+The baby kangaroo waved back with his paw. He was happy. He had a new friend.
+Lily and Max were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Lily had a big doll that looked like a princess. Max had a small car that he zoomed around the floor.
+
+"Look at my princess, she is so pretty and tall!" Lily said, holding her doll up.
+
+"My car is faster and cooler than your princess!" Max said, driving his car near Lily's doll.
+
+They started to argue about whose toy was better. They did not hear their mom calling them for dinner.
+
+"Kids, dinner is ready! Come to the kitchen now!" Mom said.
+
+Lily and Max ignored her. They kept fighting over their toys.
+
+"Your princess is too big, she takes up all the space!" Max said, pushing Lily's doll away.
+
+"Your car is too small, I can't even see it!" Lily said, kicking Max's car.
+
+Suddenly, something strange happened. Lily and Max felt a tickle in their bellies. They looked at each other and gasped. They were shrinking!
+
+They became smaller and smaller, until they were the same size as their toys. Their toys looked huge and scary. They felt scared and lost.
+
+"Mom! Mom! Help us!" they cried.
+
+Mom heard their tiny voices. She came to the living room and saw them on the floor, next to their toys.
+
+"Oh no, what happened to you?" she asked, picking them up gently.
+
+"We don't know, we were playing and then we shrank!" Lily said.
+
+"We're sorry, Mom, we didn't listen to you!" Max said.
+
+Mom hugged them and kissed them. She said, "Don't worry, I know how to fix this. You need to eat your dinner. It will make you grow back to normal."
+
+She carried them to the kitchen and put them on the table. She gave them each a spoon and a plate of food. The food looked big and yummy.
+
+"Here, eat this. It's good for you." Mom said.
+
+Lily and Max ate their dinner. They felt the tickle in their bellies again. They looked at each other and smiled. They were growing!
+
+They became bigger and bigger, until they were the same size as before. They felt happy and relieved.
+
+"Thank you, Mom, we love you!" they said, hugging Mom.
+
+"You're welcome, I love you too. But next time, please listen to me when I call you for dinner. And don't fight over your toys. They are just toys. You are more important." Mom said.
+
+Lily and Max nodded. They said, "We're sorry, Mom. We won't fight anymore. We'll share our toys and play nicely."
+
+They finished their dinner and cleaned up their toys. They gave their toys a kiss and put them away. They went to bed with a smile on their faces. They had learned a lesson. They never shrank again.
+Lily wanted to ride the big bike, but she was scared. It had two wheels and no training wheels. She saw her big brother Sam ride it fast and easy. He looked happy and free.
+
+"Can I try your bike, Sam?" Lily asked.
+
+"Sure, Lily. You can do it. I will help you," Sam said. He was a thoughtful brother. He got off his bike and gave it to Lily. He held the seat and the handle. "Just pedal and balance. I will not let you go until you are ready."
+
+Lily got on the bike and felt nervous. She put her feet on the pedals and pushed. The bike moved a little, then wobbled. Lily gasped and grabbed the handle tight.
+
+"Don't worry, Lily. You are doing great. Just keep pedaling and look ahead. You are almost there," Sam encouraged her.
+
+Lily tried again. She pedaled harder and faster. The bike went smoother and straighter. Lily felt a breeze on her face and a thrill in her heart. She looked at Sam and smiled.
+
+"Let go, Sam. I can do it by myself," Lily said.
+
+Sam let go of the seat and the handle. He watched Lily ride the bike on her own. He clapped and cheered. "You did it, Lily. You are amazing. I am so proud of you."
+
+Lily heard Sam and felt happy and proud too. She turned the bike around and rode back to him. She stopped and hugged him. "Thank you, Sam. You are the best brother ever. You helped me ride the big bike."
+
+"You are welcome, Lily. You are the best sister ever. You were brave and strong. You learned to ride the big bike," Sam said.
+
+They both laughed and hugged. Then they rode the big bike together, sharing the seat and the handle. They had fun and felt closer. They were a thoughtful and encouraging team.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. Ben found a big knife on the counter. He wanted to cut some bread with it.
+
+"Look, Lily, I have a knife!" he said. "I can cut anything!"
+
+Lily was scared. She knew the knife was sharp and dangerous. She tried to take it from Ben.
+
+"No, Ben, don't play with the knife!" she said. "You can hurt yourself or spoil the food!"
+
+Ben did not listen. He waved the knife around and laughed. He did not see the glass jar behind him. He hit the jar with the knife and it broke. Glass and jam flew everywhere.
+
+"Uh-oh!" Ben said. He dropped the knife and ran away.
+
+Lily was angry and sad. She liked the jam and now it was gone. She saw the knife on the floor. It was broken too. The blade was bent and the handle was cracked.
+
+"Ben, you spoiled everything!" she shouted. "You broke the knife and the jar and made a mess!"
+
+She picked up the knife and ran after Ben. She wanted to make him say sorry. But she tripped on the rug and fell down. The knife slipped from her hand and cut her finger. She cried out in pain.
+
+Mama heard the noise and came to the kitchen. She saw the broken jar, the broken knife, the jam, and the blood. She was shocked and angry.
+
+"What happened here?" she asked. "Who did this?"
+
+Ben and Lily looked at each other. They knew they were in trouble. They wished they had not played with the knife.
+Tom loved to whistle. He whistled all the time, even when he was eating or brushing his teeth. He whistled songs he heard on the radio, songs he made up in his head, and songs he learned from his dad. His dad was a jazz musician who played the saxophone. He taught Tom how to whistle with feeling and rhythm.
+
+One day, Tom went to the park with his mom and his little sister, Lily. He saw a big slide and ran to it. He whistled as he climbed up the ladder and slid down. He whistled as he swung on the swings and jumped on the seesaw. He whistled as he chased the squirrels and the birds. He was having so much fun that he did not notice that Lily was sad. She wanted to play with him, but he was too busy whistling.
+
+"Tom, can you please stop whistling for a minute?" his mom asked. "Lily wants to talk to you."
+
+Tom looked at his mom and then at his sister. She had tears in her eyes and a frown on her face. He felt sorry for her.
+
+"OK, mom. What do you want to say, Lily?" he asked.
+
+Lily sniffed and said, "I want to play with you, Tom. But you always whistle and ignore me. You don't share your toys or your stories. You don't listen to me or hug me. You don't love me."
+
+Tom was shocked. He loved his sister very much. He did not mean to hurt her feelings. He realized that he was being selfish and rude. He hugged Lily and said, "I'm sorry, Lily. I do love you. I was just having fun whistling. But you are more important than whistling. You are my sister and my friend. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Lily smiled and nodded. She hugged him back and said, "I forgive you, Tom. I love you too. Can we play together now?"
+
+Tom nodded and said, "Yes, we can. And I can teach you how to whistle too. It's easy and fun. And you can be creative and make your own songs."
+
+Lily was happy. She wanted to learn how to whistle like her brother and her dad. She and Tom played together for the rest of the day. They whistled and laughed and shared their toys and stories. They learned that whistling is fun, but loving and caring for each other is more fun. And that is the best jazz of all.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to pretend they were lions. They ran around the grass and trees, roaring and chasing each other. They felt powerful and happy.
+
+"Roar! I'm the king of the jungle!" Tom said, jumping on a bench.
+
+"Roar! I'm the queen of the jungle!" Lily said, climbing a slide.
+
+They laughed and roared some more. They had fun.
+
+But then they saw a big dog. The dog was barking and running towards them. It looked angry and scary. Tom and Lily were afraid. They stopped roaring and ran away.
+
+"Help! Help!" they cried.
+
+They ran to their mom, who was sitting on a bench. She saw the dog and hugged them.
+
+"Don't worry, my little lions. You are safe with me," she said.
+
+She took out a cookie from her pocket and gave it to them.
+
+"Here, have a snack. You are brave and strong," she said.
+
+Tom and Lily smiled and ate the cookie. They felt better.
+
+They thanked their mom and gave her a kiss.
+
+They still liked to pretend they were lions, but they also liked to be with their mom. She was powerful and kind.
+Tom and Mia liked to play in the park. They had a big ball that they kicked and threw to each other. One day, they saw a new thing in the park. It was a tall pole with a shiny ring on top. It had a sign that said "bird feeder".
+
+"What is that?" Tom asked.
+
+"It is for the birds. They can eat the seeds in the ring. It is very nice of someone to give them food," Mia said.
+
+They went closer to the pole and saw some birds flying around it. They looked happy and chirped loudly. Tom and Mia smiled and watched them.
+
+Suddenly, a big dog ran into the park. It barked and chased the birds. The birds flew away in fear. The dog jumped and bit the pole. It shook it hard and made the ring fall down. The seeds spilled on the ground. The dog ate some of them and ran away.
+
+"Oh no! The dog broke the bird feeder! The birds will be sad and hungry!" Mia cried.
+
+Tom felt sorry for the birds. He had an idea. He picked up the ring and put it back on the pole. He looked around and saw some seeds on the ground. He gathered them and filled the ring with them. He hoped the dog would not come back.
+
+"Look, Mia! I fixed the bird feeder! The birds can eat again!" Tom said.
+
+Mia hugged Tom and thanked him. She was proud of him. He was very generous and kind. They waited for the birds to come back. Soon, they saw some feathers and heard some songs. The birds returned and found the food. They ate and sang happily. Tom and Mia clapped and cheered. They felt good and happy too. They had helped to restore the bird feeder.
+Lily and Sam were friends in school. They liked to play and learn together. One day, they had a new teacher. She was very harsh. She did not smile or joke. She made them sit at their desks and be quiet.
+
+Lily and Sam did not like the new teacher. They missed their old teacher, who was kind and fun. They wanted to talk to each other, but they were afraid of the new teacher. So they whispered very softly.
+
+"Hi, Sam," Lily whispered. "Do you like the new teacher?"
+
+"No, Lily," Sam whispered back. "She is mean and scary. I want our old teacher back."
+
+"Me too, Sam," Lily whispered. "Maybe she will come back soon."
+
+But the new teacher heard them whispering. She walked over to their desks and looked at them with angry eyes.
+
+"Who told you to whisper?" she asked in a loud voice. "You are supposed to be silent and listen. If you whisper again, you will go to the corner and miss recess. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily and Sam nodded. They felt sad and scared. They did not whisper anymore. They wished the new teacher would go away.
+Lily and Ben went to the mall with Mom. They liked to see the big stores and the bright lights. But the mall was very noisy. There were many people talking and laughing and walking. There were also loud sounds from the music and the machines.
+
+Lily and Ben saw a big red phone in the middle of the mall. It had a sign that said "Ask me anything". They were curious. They wanted to try the phone. Mom said they could, but they had to stay close to her.
+
+Lily picked up the phone and said "Hello". A voice came from the phone. It said "Hello, I am the mall phone. I can answer any question you have. What do you want to know?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She asked "Why is the mall so noisy?" The voice said "The mall is noisy because there are many people and things that make sounds. Some people like the noise, and some people don't. It depends on how you feel."
+
+Ben took the phone from Lily. He asked "Can you make the noise stop?" The voice said "No, I cannot make the noise stop. I can only answer questions. If you want the noise to stop, you have to go somewhere quieter, like the library or the park."
+
+Lily and Ben thanked the voice and hung up the phone. They decided they had enough of the mall. They told Mom they wanted to go home. Mom agreed. She said they could read a book or play a game when they got home. Lily and Ben smiled. They liked the mall, but they liked their home more.
+Lily and Max were best friends. They liked to play with their scooters in the park. One day, they saw a big hill with a path. Lily wanted to go down the hill on her scooter. She said to Max, "I dare you to go down the hill with me. It will be fun!"
+
+Max was scared. He looked at the hill and said, "No, Lily, it is too high and too fast. We might fall and hurt ourselves. Let's go somewhere else."
+
+Lily was not scared. She said, "You are a chicken, Max. I am not afraid. I will go down the hill by myself. Watch me!"
+
+She put on her helmet and got on her scooter. She pushed herself and zoomed down the hill. She felt the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She was happy.
+
+But then, she saw something hidden in the path. It was a big rock. She tried to avoid it, but it was too late. She hit the rock and flew off her scooter. She landed on the grass and cried.
+
+Max heard her cry and ran to her. He saw her bleeding knee and her broken scooter. He felt sorry for her. He said, "Lily, are you okay? I am sorry I called you a chicken. You are very brave, but you should be careful."
+
+He helped her up and hugged her. He said, "Let's go home and get some band-aids. And maybe we can fix your scooter. Or we can share mine."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, Max. You are a good friend. And maybe next time, we can find a smaller hill to go down together."
+Ben and Lily liked to play match. They had cards with pictures of fruit on them. They had to find two cards that had the same fruit. Ben was very good at match. He could remember where the cards were. Lily was not so good. She forgot where the cards were. She was sad.
+
+One day, Ben and Lily played match with their mom. Mom said she had a surprise for them. She said if they matched all the cards, they would get the surprise. Ben and Lily were excited. They wanted to know what the surprise was. They started to play.
+
+Ben matched many cards. He matched apples, bananas, oranges, and grapes. He had only one card left. It was a strawberry. He looked for the other strawberry card. He could not find it. He was confused.
+
+Lily matched some cards. She matched pears, lemons, cherries, and watermelons. She had only one card left. It was a strawberry. She saw the other strawberry card. It was under Ben's hand. She was happy.
+
+Lily said, "Ben, I found the last match!" She pointed to the card under his hand. Ben lifted his hand. He saw the card. He said, "Wow, you are right! You found the last match!" He smiled.
+
+Mom said, "Good job, Ben and Lily! You matched all the cards! You are both very lucky!" She gave them a big hug. She said, "Now, do you want to know what the surprise is?" Ben and Lily nodded. They were curious.
+
+Mom said, "The surprise is...a fruit salad!" She showed them a big bowl of fruit. It had all the fruit that were on the cards. Ben and Lily said, "Wow, that looks yummy!" They thanked mom. They ate the fruit salad. They were happy. They liked to play match.
+Lily liked to organize her toys. She had a box for dolls, a box for cars, a box for books, and a box for blocks. She liked to put each toy in its right box after she played with it. She felt happy when her room was neat and tidy.
+
+One day, her friend Max came over to play. Max liked to make a mess. He took out all the toys from the boxes and threw them around the room. He said it was more fun that way. Lily felt angry and sad. She asked Max to stop and help her organize the toys again.
+
+"No, I don't want to," Max said. "Organizing is boring. Let's play something else."
+
+Lily tried to tell Max that organizing was good and fun, but he didn't listen. He ran to the kitchen to look for snacks. Lily followed him, hoping to get him to come back and help her.
+
+But when they got to the kitchen, they saw a big surprise. Lily's mom was there, and she had a cake and balloons. She smiled and said, "Surprise! Happy birthday, Lily! I invited some of your friends to celebrate with you. They are waiting in the living room."
+
+Lily was shocked. She had forgotten that it was her birthday. She felt happy and excited, but also embarrassed. She remembered that her room was a mess, and that her friends would see it. She wondered what they would think of her.
+
+She looked at Max, who looked guilty and sorry. He whispered, "I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't know it was your birthday. I shouldn't have made a mess of your toys. Can you forgive me?"
+
+Lily nodded. She was still angry, but she also felt sorry for Max. She knew he was her friend, and he didn't mean to ruin her birthday. She said, "It's okay, Max. But you have to help me organize my toys later, okay?"
+
+Max agreed. He said, "Okay, Lily. I will help you. And I will try to be more careful with your toys. Happy birthday, Lily. You are a good person and a good friend."
+
+Lily smiled. She felt better. She said, "Thank you, Max. You are a good person and a good friend, too. Come on, let's go to the living room and have some cake and fun."
+
+They hugged and ran to the living room, where their friends cheered and sang for Lily. Lily's mom was proud of her daughter, who was kind and forgiving. She thought, "Lily is growing up so fast. She is learning how to organize, how to share, and how to be a good person."
+Sara and Tom were twins who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a deer in the woods. They wanted to get closer and see it better. They ran after the deer, but it was too fast and ran away.
+
+"Come back, deer!" Sara shouted. "We want to be your friends!"
+
+"Maybe it is scared of us," Tom said. "We should be quiet and gentle."
+
+They followed the deer's tracks until they reached a fence. The fence had a sign that said "Do not enter. Private property."
+
+"What does that mean?" Sara asked.
+
+"It means we cannot go there," Tom said. "It belongs to someone else. We have to pay if we want to go there."
+
+"Pay? How do we pay?" Sara asked.
+
+Tom looked around and saw some flowers and berries. He picked some and put them in his pocket.
+
+"Maybe we can pay with these," he said. "They are pretty and yummy. Maybe the owner will like them."
+
+He climbed over the fence and ran towards the deer. Sara followed him.
+
+They did not see the man who lived there. He was angry when he saw them. He had a gun and a dog. He did not like strangers on his land.
+
+"Hey, you kids! Get off my property!" he yelled. "Or I'll shoot you and your deer!"
+
+Sara and Tom were scared. They dropped the flowers and berries and ran back to the fence. The dog chased them and barked loudly. The deer ran away too.
+
+They climbed over the fence and ran to the park. They were safe, but they were sad. They did not see the deer anymore.
+
+They learned a lesson that day. They learned that they should not go where they are not allowed. They learned that they should respect other people's things. They learned that they should be careful with animals. They learned that they were lucky to escape the angry man and his dog. They learned that they should pay attention to signs and rules. They learned that they should listen to their parents and teachers. They learned that they should be happy with what they have.
+Anna and Ben like to play with their toys. They have many toys: cars, dolls, blocks, books, and more. But sometimes they make a big mess in their room. Mommy says they have to organize their toys and put them in the right places.
+
+One day, Anna and Ben decide to organize their toys by themselves. They want to surprise Mommy and make her happy. They start to sort their toys into different piles. Anna takes the dolls and the books. Ben takes the cars and the blocks. They work hard and have fun.
+
+But then they have a problem. They have one toy left: a ball. It is a big, red, bouncy ball. Anna and Ben both want the ball. They start to argue.
+
+"It's my ball!" Anna says. "I got it for my birthday!"
+
+"No, it's my ball!" Ben says. "I like to play with it more!"
+
+They pull the ball from each other. They are not gentle. They are rough. The ball slips from their hands. It flies in the air. It hits the window. The window breaks. Glass falls on the floor. Anna and Ben are scared.
+
+Mommy hears the noise. She runs to their room. She sees the broken window, the glass, and the ball. She is angry and sad.
+
+"What happened here?" Mommy asks.
+
+Anna and Ben look at each other. They feel sorry. They tell Mommy the truth.
+
+"We were trying to organize our toys, but we fought over the ball. We were not gentle. We broke the window. We are sorry, Mommy," they say.
+
+Mommy sighs. She hugs them.
+
+"I'm glad you were honest, but you have to be careful. The ball is not worth breaking the window. You could have hurt yourselves or each other. Next time, you have to share and be gentle. Do you understand?" Mommy says.
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They understand. They say sorry again. They help Mommy clean the glass. They finish organizing their toys. They put the ball in a basket. They agree to take turns playing with it. They learn their lesson. They make Mommy happy.
+Anna likes to draw with her crayons. She draws many things: a sun, a flower, a cat, a house. She is very proud of her drawings. She wants to show them to her mom and dad.
+
+She runs to the kitchen, where her mom is making lunch. She says, "Mom, look at my drawings! They are amazing!" She holds up her paper and smiles. Her mom smiles too. She says, "Wow, Anna, your drawings are amazing! You are very good at drawing. Can I see them closer?"
+
+Anna nods and gives her paper to her mom. Her mom looks at each drawing and says nice things. She says, "I like your sun, it is very bright and happy. I like your flower, it is very pretty and colorful. I like your cat, it is very cute and fluffy. I like your house, it is very cozy and big. You have a lot of imagination, Anna."
+
+Anna beams. She says, "Thank you, mom. Can I display my drawings on the fridge?" Her mom says, "Of course, you can. Let's find some magnets and display your drawings on the fridge. Then dad can see them when he comes home."
+
+They go to the fridge and find some magnets. They display Anna's drawings on the fridge. They look very nice. Anna is very happy. She says, "I love drawing. I want to draw more things." Her mom says, "You can draw more things after lunch. But first, let's eat. I made your favorite, mac and cheese."
+
+They sit down and eat. Anna enjoys her mac and cheese. She looks at her drawings on the fridge and smiles. She thinks, "I am amazing."
+
+Suddenly, they hear a loud noise. They look outside and see rain. It is raining hard. The rain makes splashes and puddles. Anna says, "Wow, look at the rain! It is amazing too!" Her mom says, "Yes, the rain is amazing. It gives water to the plants and animals. It makes rainbows and sounds. It is fun to watch and play in."
+
+Anna says, "Can I play in the rain, mom?" Her mom says, "Maybe later, when it stops raining so hard. But for now, you can watch the rain from the window. Or you can draw the rain with your crayons. What do you want to do?"
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She says, "I want to draw the rain. I want to make another amazing drawing." She runs to her crayons and paper. She starts to draw the rain. She uses blue and gray and white. She draws raindrops and clouds and umbrellas. She is very happy. She says, "I love the rain. I love drawing. I love mom. I love dad. I love everything."
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big puddle. It is wet and shiny.
+
+"Let's jump in the puddle!" Ben says. He runs to the puddle and jumps. Splash! Water goes everywhere. Ben laughs.
+
+Anna runs after him. She jumps in the puddle too. Splash! Water goes on her dress. Anna giggles.
+
+They jump and splash and have fun. They make the puddle smaller and smaller.
+
+Then they hear a voice. It is Mom. She is looking for them.
+
+"Anna! Ben! Where are you?" Mom calls.
+
+Anna and Ben stop jumping. They look at Mom. She is standing on the path. She has a big bag.
+
+"Here we are, Mom!" Anna and Ben say. They run to Mom. They are wet and muddy.
+
+Mom looks at them. She smiles. She is not angry.
+
+"I see you had fun in the puddle," Mom says. "But now you are very wet and dirty. You need to change your clothes."
+
+She opens the bag. She has dry clothes for them.
+
+"Thank you, Mom!" Anna and Ben say. They take the dry clothes and put them on. They feel warm and cozy.
+
+They hug Mom. They are happy.
+
+The end.
+Tom and Sue were friends who liked to play in the park. One evening, they saw a big box under a tree. They were curious and wanted to see what was inside. They ran to the box and opened it.
+
+They were shocked to reveal a fierce lion that was hiding in the box. The lion was angry and hungry. It roared and jumped out of the box. It chased Tom and Sue across the park. They screamed and ran as fast as they could, but the lion was faster.
+
+The lion caught up with Tom and Sue and pounced on them. It bit them and hurt them very badly. They cried and wished they had never opened the box. The lion ate them and left no trace. It was a very bad ending for Tom and Sue.

+
+"Can you manage to sing in front of many people? It can be scary and hard. You might feel nervous or shy. Are you sure you want to do it?" her mom asked.
+
+Sara thought for a moment. She remembered how she sang at home, at school, and in the park. She remembered how she sang to her toys, her friends, and her family. She remembered how she sang loud and happy. She nodded her head.
+
+"Yes, mom, I can manage. I love to sing. I want to be famous. I want to sing for everyone!" Sara said.
+
+The next day, Sara and her mom went to the big show. There were many people there. There were lights and cameras and microphones. Sara felt a little nervous and shy. She held her mom's hand. She waited for her turn.

+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big rope. It has a ring at the end. Ben says, "Let's swing on the rope. It will be fun." Anna says, "OK, but be careful. The rope is high."
+
+Ben goes first. He holds the ring and runs. He swings on the rope. He feels happy. He says, "This is great. Come on, Anna. It's your turn." Anna is nervous. She thinks the rope is too high. She says, "No, thank you. I don't want to swing. I'm scared."
+
+Ben says, "Don't be scared. It's easy. Just hold the ring and run. You can do it." Anna says, "No, I can't. I don't like it." Ben says, "Please, Anna. Don't be a baby. Just try it. It's fun." Anna feels sad. She wants to be a good friend. She says, "OK, I'll try it. But only once."
+
+Anna holds the ring and runs. She swings on the rope. She feels nervous. She says, "Help, Ben. I don't like it. I want to stop." Ben says, "Don't worry, Anna. Just let go of the ring. You'll land on the grass." Anna says, "No, I can't. I'm too scared." She holds the ring tighter. She swings faster. She says, "Help, help, help."
+
+Ben sees that Anna is in trouble. He says, "Oh, no. Anna, listen to me. You have to let go of the ring. There's a knot in the rope. It will stop you from swinging. You'll get stuck. You'll get hurt. Please, Anna. Let go of the ring." Anna hears Ben. She sees the knot. She is very scared. She says, "I'm sorry, Ben. I'm sorry. I can't let go. I can't."
+
+The rope swings to the knot. The knot stops the rope. Anna stops swinging. She hangs in the air. She cries. She says, "Ben, help me. Help me. I'm stuck. I'm hurt." Ben runs to Anna. He tries to pull her down. He can't. He says, "Don't cry, Anna. Don't cry. I'll get help. I'll be back. I'm sorry, Anna. I'm sorry."
+
+Ben runs to the park keeper. He tells him what happened. The park keeper calls the firemen. The firemen come with a ladder. They climb the ladder. They reach Anna. They untie the knot.

+
+Ben hugs Anna. He says, "I'm sorry, too, Anna. I'm sorry. I should not have pushed you. I should have listened to you. I should have respected your feelings. I'm sorry, Anna. I'm sorry." Anna says, "It's OK, Ben. It's OK. You're still my friend. You're still my friend."
+
+The firemen, the park keeper, and the other children clap. They say, "Well done, Anna. Well done, Ben. You're brave. You're kind. You're good friends. You learned a lesson. You learned a lesson."
+
+The moral of the story is: Don't force your friends to do things they don't want to do. Respect their feelings and choices. Be supportive and helpful. Be a good friend.
+Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play in the park. They had a game where they would find sticks and put them in a pile. Then they would use the sticks to make things like houses, boats, or swords.
+
+One day, they found a very big stick that was shiny and smooth. Lily wanted to put it in their pile, but Ben wanted to keep it for himself. He said it was his stick and he would not share it. Lily was sad and angry. She said Ben was not a reliable friend.
+
+Ben took the big stick and ran away. He tried to make a boat with it, but it was too heavy and sank in the pond. He tried to make a sword with it, but it was too long and broke in half. He tried to make a house with it, but it was too slippery and fell down. He was frustrated and lonely.
+
+He saw Lily playing with the other sticks in their pile. She had made a nice house, a fast boat, and a strong sword. She was having fun with the other children. She saw Ben and waved at him. She said he could join them if he wanted.
+
+Ben felt sorry and ashamed. He realized he had been selfish and mean. He picked up the broken pieces of his big stick and brought them to Lily. He said he was sorry and he wanted to share. Lily smiled and hugged him. She said he was a reliable friend again.
+
+They put the pieces of the big stick in their pile and used them to make more things. They played happily together and learned to share and be kind.

+But then, Lily sees a paper that she likes very much. It has a big heart and a rainbow. She wants to make a card for her mom with it.
+
+"Ben, can I have this paper?" Lily asks. "It is very pretty. I want to make a card for my mom."
+
+"Sorry, Lily, I want this paper too," Ben says. "It is very pretty. I want to make a card for my dad."
+
+They both hold the paper and pull. They are not cheerful anymore. They are angry and sad.
+
+"Let go of the paper!" Lily says.
+
+"No, you let go of the paper!" Ben says.
+
+They pull harder and harder. The paper rips in half. They both drop the paper and cry.
+
+They look at the paper. It is not pretty anymore. It is broken and torn. They feel sorry and bad.
+
+"Lily, I'm sorry I ripped the paper," Ben says. "I was selfish. You can have the other half."
+
+"Ben, I'm sorry I ripped the paper too," Lily says. "I was selfish too. You can have the other half."
+
+They hug and say sorry. They are friends again. They are cheerful again.

+
+"Here you go, boys. Be careful, they are hot," Mom says.
+
+Sam and Tom sit at the table. They each take a sausage. They bite and chew. They are yummy.
+
+But Tom is not careful. He holds his sausage too loose. He drops it on the floor.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom says. "My sausage!"
+
+Sam laughs. He says, "Silly Tom. You dropped your sausage. Now you have no sausage."
+
+Tom is sad. He looks at his empty plate. He wants another sausage.

+She gives Sam another sausage. They all eat and enjoy their breakfast. They are happy.
+Tim and Lily were playing with their toys in the living room. They liked to make cars and houses and animals with their blocks and tape. They had a lot of fun and made a lot of noise.
+
+Mom was in the kitchen, making lunch. She heard the noise and came to see what they were doing. She saw the tape on the floor, on the couch, on the table, and on the walls. She saw the blocks everywhere. She was angry.
+
+"Tim and Lily, what are you doing?" she asked. "You made a big mess with the tape and the blocks. You have to clean it up right now!"
+
+Tim and Lily looked at Mom. They were scared. They did not want to clean up. They liked their toys. They wanted to keep playing.
+
+"Please, Mom, can we play a little more?" Tim asked. "We made a cool car and a big house and a weird animal. Look!"
+
+Mom did not look. She did not care. She was too angry. She grabbed the tape and the blocks and threw them in the trash. She said they could not play with them anymore. She said they had to go to their room and stay there until lunch.
+
+Tim and Lily cried. They were sad. They did not understand why Mom was so mean. They liked their toys. They did not like the trash. They did not like their room. They did not like Mom.

+Tom and Sue were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They saw a big rock near the fence. They wanted to climb on it and see what was behind the fence.
+
+"Let's go to the rock!" Tom said.
+
+"OK!" Sue said.
+
+They ran to the rock and climbed on it. They looked over the fence. They saw a big dog. The dog was barking and growling. It had sharp teeth and angry eyes. It saw Tom and Sue and ran to the fence.
+
+Tom and Sue were frightened. They wanted to get off the rock and run away. But the rock was slippery and they could not get down. The dog was jumping and trying to reach them.
+
+"Help! Help!" Tom and Sue shouted.
+
+They heard a whistle. It was a loud and clear whistle. The dog stopped barking and growling. It turned and ran away. Tom and Sue saw a man with a hat and a leash. He was the dog's owner. He had blown the whistle to call the dog.
+
+"Sorry, kids. He's not a bad dog, but he doesn't like strangers. Are you OK?" the man said.
+
+"Yes, thank you. We were scared," Tom said.
+
+"Me too," Sue said.
+
+The man helped them get off the rock and gave them a smile.
+
+"Next time, be careful where you climb. And don't worry, I'll keep him on the leash," the man said.
+
+Tom and Sue nodded and said goodbye. They ran back to the swing and slide and played some more. They were happy and safe. They did not want to go to the rock again.
+Tom and Lily were playing pirates in the backyard. They had a big cardboard box that was their ship, and they used sticks as swords. They pretended to fight other pirates and look for treasure.
+
+"Arrr, I am the captain of this ship!" Tom said, waving his stick. "You are my prisoner, Lily. Surrender or walk the plank!"
+
+"No, I am the captain!" Lily said, poking Tom with her stick. "You are the prisoner, Tom. Surrender or I will make you cook on the stove!"
+
+They both laughed and kept playing. They liked to pretend, but they did not really want to hurt each other.
+
+Suddenly, they heard their mom calling them from the kitchen. "Tom, Lily, lunch is ready! Come inside and wash your hands!"
+
+They dropped their sticks and ran to the house. They smelled something yummy. Their mom had made them grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup. They sat at the table and thanked their mom.
+
+"Wow, this is delicious!" Tom said, biting his sandwich. "The cheese is so smooth and gooey!"
+
+"I love the soup!" Lily said, slurping her spoon. "It is so warm and tasty!"
+
+They ate their lunch and smiled at each other. They were happy to be pirates, but they were happier to be siblings.
+Sara liked to play in the garden. She liked to dig holes and look for bugs. One day, she found a big hole that she did not dig. She wondered who made it. She put her hand in the hole and felt something soft and furry. She pulled it out and saw a mole. The mole was upset. It squeaked and wriggled in her hand.
+
+"Let me go, let me go!" the mole said.
+
+Sara was surprised. She did not know moles could talk. She wanted to keep the mole as a pet. She thought it was cute and funny.
+
+"No, you can't keep me. I live in the ground. I need to dig and eat worms. You are hurting me. Please put me back in my hole," the mole said.
+
+Sara felt bad. She did not want to hurt the mole. She did not know moles liked to live in the ground and eat worms. She thought they liked to play and cuddle. She put the mole back in the hole and said sorry.
+
+"Thank you, thank you. You are a kind girl. Maybe we can be friends. But please don't pull me out of my hole again. It scares me and makes me upset," the mole said.
+
+Sara nodded. She said goodbye to the mole and went to look for other bugs. She learned something new that day. She learned that moles are different from her and have different needs. She learned to respect them and not to bother them. She also learned that moles can talk. But she did not tell anyone. She thought it was a secret.
+Lily was lonely. She had no friends to play with. She liked to look at the dog in the yard next door. The dog was big and brown and had a wagging tail. Lily wanted to pet the dog and hug him.
+
+One day, Lily saw the dog's owner come out of the house. She was a nice lady with a red hat. Lily ran to the fence and said, "Hello, lady. Can I pet your dog? He looks so friendly."
+
+The lady smiled and said, "Hello, Lily. My dog's name is Max. He is friendly, but he is also shy. He doesn't like strangers. You have to be gentle and quiet with him. Do you want to try?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, please. I will be gentle and quiet. I like Max. He is not lonely like me."
+
+The lady opened the gate and allowed Lily to enter the yard. She held Lily's hand and walked with her to Max. Max was lying under a tree, chewing a bone. He looked up and saw Lily and the lady. He wagged his tail a little.
+
+"Hello, Max," the lady said. "This is Lily. She wants to be your friend. Can she pet you?"
+
+Max sniffed Lily's hand and licked it. He seemed to like her. Lily smiled and stroked his fur. He felt soft and warm. He nuzzled her cheek and made a happy sound.
+
+Lily hugged Max and said, "Thank you, lady. Thank you, Max. You are both very nice. Can I come again and play with Max?"
+
+The lady nodded and said, "Of course, Lily. You can come anytime. Max likes you. And I like you too. You are not lonely anymore. You have a friend."
+Lila and Tom liked to play in the park. They liked to run, swing, slide and climb. They also liked to look at the statue of a lion. The lion was big and strong. It had a mane and a tail. It looked like it could roar.
+
+One day, they saw some men working on the lion. They had tools and paint. They were fixing the lion. Lila and Tom were curious. They went closer to see what they were doing.
+
+"Hello," one of the men said. "Do you like the lion?"
+
+"Yes, we do," Lila and Tom said. "Why are you fixing it?"
+
+"We are restoring it," the man said. "That means we are making it look new again. The lion is very old. It has some cracks and dirt. We are cleaning it and filling the cracks. Then we will paint it with the right colors."
+
+"Wow," Lila and Tom said. "Can we help?"
+
+The man smiled. "Sure, you can help. You can hand us the tools and the paint. But be careful. Don't touch the lion until it is dry."
+
+Lila and Tom were happy. They helped the men restore the lion. They learned the names of the tools and the colors. They had fun.
+
+When they were done, the lion looked fine. It looked shiny and smooth. It looked like it could roar louder.
+
+"Thank you for your help," the man said. "You did a good job. The lion is fine now."
+
+Lila and Tom smiled. They thanked the man. They hugged the lion. They were proud. They had helped restore the lion.
+Lily wanted to read her book, but it was dark in her room. She saw a lamp on her nightstand. She got up from her bed and walked to the lamp. She reached for the switch, but it was too high for her. She jumped and stretched, but she could not touch it.
+
+She heard a voice from the door. It was her mom. "What are you doing, Lily?" she asked.
+
+"I want to read, but I can't turn on the lamp," Lily said.
+
+"Let me help you," her mom said. She came into the room and lifted Lily up. She held her in her arms and let her reach the switch. Lily flipped it on and the lamp lit up.
+
+"Thank you, mom," Lily said. She smiled and hugged her mom.
+
+"You're welcome, sweetie," her mom said. She kissed her on the cheek and put her down. "But it's time for bed now. You can read your book tomorrow."
+
+"But I want to read now," Lily said. She pouted and looked at her book.
+
+"I know, honey, but reading in the dark is not good for your eyes. And you need to sleep to grow and learn. How about I read you a story instead?" her mom said.
+
+"Okay," Lily said. She nodded and crawled back into her bed. She picked a story book from her shelf and handed it to her mom.
+
+Her mom sat on the edge of the bed and opened the book. She read the story in a soft voice, while Lily listened and looked at the pictures. The lamp gave a warm light, not a harsh one. Lily felt cozy and happy. She closed her eyes and drifted into a dream.
+Lily was playing with her dolls in the garden. She liked to make them talk and have tea parties. She saw a big dog walking on the street. He was brown and fluffy, but he looked smelly and hungry. Lily felt sorry for him. She wanted to invite him to her tea party.
+
+She ran to the gate and called out, "Hello, doggy! Do you want to play with me and my dolls? I have cookies and juice for you." The dog stopped and looked at her. He wagged his tail and barked. He seemed friendly, but he was a stranger. Lily did not know him.
+
+Lily's mom was watching from the window. She saw Lily talking to the dog. She felt worried. She knew that some dogs could be mean or bite. She did not want Lily to get hurt. She ran outside and said, "Lily, come here! You should not talk to strangers, even if they are dogs. You don't know if they are nice or not."
+
+Lily looked at her mom and said, "But mom, he is so cute and lonely. He wants to join my tea party. Can I invite him, please?" She pointed at the dog, who was still waiting at the gate.
+
+Lily's mom shook her head and said, "No, honey, you can't. He might be smelly and dirty. He might have fleas or germs. He might knock over your dolls or eat your cookies. He might not listen to you or share. He is not a good guest for your tea party. You should only invite your friends or people you know."
+
+Lily felt sad and disappointed. She wanted to be nice to the dog. She said, "But mom, he is not a bad dog. He is just a sad dog. He needs a friend. Maybe he could be my friend." She looked at the dog with big eyes.
+
+Lily's mom sighed and said, "Lily, I know you are a kind and sweet girl. But you have to be careful with strangers, even if they are animals. They might not be what they seem. Maybe the dog has an owner who is looking for him. Maybe he is not sad, but angry or scared. Maybe he is not a dog at all, but a wolf in disguise." She smiled and said, "Why don't you invite someone else to your tea party? How about your neighbor, Ben? He likes to play with dolls, too. And he is not smelly or hungry. He is a good friend for you."
+
+Lily thought about it and said, "OK, mom. I will invite Ben. He is fun and nice. He will like my tea party." She waved goodbye to the dog and said, "Sorry, doggy. Maybe another time. Bye-bye." She ran inside to get the phone and call Ben.
+
+The dog watched Lily go. He was not a dog, but a wolf in disguise. He had a plan to trick Lily and eat her and her dolls. He was angry and hungry. He did not like cookies or juice. He did not want to play or share. He wanted to bite and chew. He had a bad smile and sharp teeth. He was a bad stranger. But he was too late. Lily's mom had saved her. He had to find another prey. He howled and ran away.
+Anna and Ben were friends. They liked to play outside in the sun. One day, they saw a big cloud in the sky. It was dark and scary.
+
+"Look, Anna, a cloud!" Ben said. "It looks like a monster."
+
+Anna was not afraid. She wanted to act brave. "It is not a monster, Ben. It is just a cloud. Let's pretend we are superheroes and fight it."
+
+Anna and Ben ran to the cloud. They shouted and waved their arms. They acted like they had powers. They thought they were having fun.
+
+But the cloud was not just a cloud. It was a storm. It had lightning and thunder. It was angry at Anna and Ben. It wanted to make them stop.
+
+The cloud flashed a bright light. It made a loud noise. It hit Anna and Ben with a bolt. Anna and Ben fell to the ground. They did not move. They did not play anymore. They were hurt.

+Lily started to worry that she wouldn't see Max again. Max noticed that Lily looked sad and asked, "What's wrong?"
+
+Lily said, "I don't want to leave. I want to play with you more." Max smiled and said, "Don't worry, we can play together again another day." Lily felt happy again and said goodbye to Max.

+"Hey, you, go away! That's our friend Jack! You are mean and naughty!" Lily shouted.
+
+"Leave Jack alone! He is not your food! He is our pumpkin!" Ben shouted.
+
+The raccoon was scared of the twins. He dropped Jack and ran away. Lily and Ben went to their tree house. They picked up Jack and hugged him. But Jack was not the same. He was soft and wet and smelly. He had rot in him. He did not smile anymore.
+
+Lily and Ben cried. They said sorry to Jack. They said goodbye to Jack. They buried Jack in the garden. They made a cross with sticks and wrote his name on it. They missed Jack very much. They learned a lesson. They learned that pumpkins are not good friends. They learned that pumpkins are good food. They learned that pumpkins can rot.
+Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play outside. One day, it rains a lot. Lily and Ben put on their boots and coats. They go to the park with Mom.
+
+"Look, Ben, a big puddle!" Lily says. She runs to the puddle and jumps in. Splash! Water goes everywhere. Lily laughs.
+
+"Me too, me too!" Ben says. He runs after Lily and jumps in the puddle. Splash! More water goes everywhere. Ben laughs.
+
+Mom watches them and smiles. She has a scale in her hand. She wants to weigh Lily and Ben. She thinks they are growing fast.
+
+"Come here, you two. Let me see how much you weigh," Mom says. She calls Lily and Ben.
+
+Lily and Ben stop jumping. They run to Mom. They want to see the scale.
+
+"Who wants to go first?" Mom asks.
+
+"Me, me!" Lily says. She is excited. She steps on the scale. The scale shows a number.
+
+"Wow, Lily, you weigh twenty pounds. You are a big girl," Mom says. She hugs Lily.
+
+"Me, me!" Ben says. He is excited too. He steps on the scale. The scale shows a number.
+
+"Wow, Ben, you weigh twenty-one pounds. You are a big boy," Mom says. She hugs Ben.
+
+Lily and Ben are happy. They are big and strong. They are cute too. Mom loves them very much.
+
+"Can we play in the puddle again?" Lily asks.
+
+"Can we, can we?" Ben asks.
+
+"Okay, but only for a little while. Then we have to go home and get dry," Mom says.
+
+"Yay!" Lily and Ben say. They run back to the puddle and jump in. Splash! Splash! Splash! They have fun. Mom watches them and smiles. She is happy too.
+Tom and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars. Tom has a big white car. Sam has a small red car. They race their cars on the floor.
+
+"Vroom, vroom!" Tom says. "My car is fast and strong. It can go anywhere."
+
+"Beep, beep!" Sam says. "My car is smart and fun. It can do tricks and jumps."
+
+They make their cars go around the room. They have a lot of fun.
+
+But then, Tom sees a shiny key on the table. It is the key to his dad's car. He wants to try it.
+
+"Look, Sam!" Tom says. "I have a key. I can unlock my dad's car. It is a real car. It can start and drive."
+
+Tom runs to the door with the key. Sam follows him.
+
+"Wait, Tom!" Sam says. "That is not a good idea. Your dad will be angry. His car is not a toy. It is dangerous."
+
+But Tom does not listen. He opens the door and goes outside. He finds his dad's car in the driveway. It is a big black car. He puts the key in the lock. He turns the key. He unlocks the car. He opens the door. He climbs inside. He puts the key in the start. He turns the key. He starts the car.
+
+"Wow!" Tom says. "I did it! I can drive the car. Vroom, vroom!"
+
+But he does not know how to drive. He pushes the pedals. He moves the wheel. He makes the car go forward. He makes the car go backward. He makes the car go fast. He makes the car go slow. He makes the car hit the fence. He makes the car hit the tree. He makes the car hit the mailbox. He makes a lot of noise. He makes a lot of mess.
+
+"Help!" Tom says. "I can't stop the car. I don't like this. I want to get out."
+
+Sam runs to the car. He opens the door. He pulls Tom out. He hugs him.
+
+"Are you okay, Tom?" Sam says. "That was scary. You could have been hurt. You should not have done that. You should have listened to me."
+
+Tom is scared and sorry. He sees the damage he did. He sees his dad coming out of the house. He sees his dad's angry face. He knows he is in trouble.
+
+"I'm sorry, Sam." Tom says. "You were right. That was not a good idea. That was a bad idea. I was silly. I won't do that again. I like our cars better. They are safe and fun."
+
+Tom and Sam go back inside. They play with their cars on the floor. They are friends. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park, draw pictures, and read books. But sometimes they had fights. One day, they had a big fight over a toy car. Lily wanted to drive it, but Ben said it was his turn. They yelled and pulled the car until it broke.
+
+"Quit it, Lily! You are mean!" Ben shouted.
+
+"No, you quit it, Ben! You are selfish!" Lily cried.
+
+They threw the car on the ground and ran away from each other. They were very angry and sad.
+
+The next day, Lily felt sorry for what she had done. She wanted to say sorry to Ben, but she did not know how. She thought of a good idea. She found a piece of paper and a crayon. She wrote "I am sorry" and drew a heart. She folded the paper and put it in an envelope. She wrote "Ben" on the envelope. She walked to Ben's house and put the envelope in his mailbox. She hoped he would see it and forgive her.
+
+Ben was also sorry for what he had done. He wanted to say sorry to Lily, but he did not know how. He thought of a good idea. He found a sticker and a marker. He wrote "I am sorry" and stuck the sticker on a balloon. He wrote "Lily" on the balloon. He walked to Lily's house and tied the balloon to her mailbox. He hoped she would see it and forgive him.
+
+When Lily came home from school, she saw the balloon on her mailbox. She smiled and ran to get it. She saw Ben's name and his sorry message. She felt happy and touched. She opened her mailbox and saw the envelope from Ben. She opened it and saw his charming drawing. She felt even happier and more touched.
+
+When Ben came home from school, he saw the envelope on his mailbox. He smiled and ran to get it. He saw Lily's name and her sorry message. He felt happy and touched. He opened his mailbox and saw the balloon from Lily. He opened it and saw her charming sticker. He felt even happier and more touched.
+
+They both ran to the park and hugged each other. They said sorry and forgave each other. They played with the balloon and the paper. They were best friends again. They learned to share and be kind. They were very happy and glad.
+Tim and Sam are friends. They like to play with toy soldiers and cars. They make a lot of noise and pretend to fight a war. They say "bang bang" and "boom boom" and throw pillows and balls.
+
+One day, Tim's mom says they have to be quiet. She says there is a real war in another place. She says some people are dead and some people are sad. She says they have to pray for peace and love.
+
+Tim and Sam do not understand. They ask what is dead and what is peace. Tim's mom says dead is when someone stops breathing and moving. She says peace is when people do not fight and hurt each other. She says peace is when people smile and share and help each other.
+
+Tim and Sam think about it. They do not want to be dead. They do not want to make people sad. They want to be alive and happy. They want to make people smile. They decide to stop playing war. They decide to play something else.
+
+They put away their toy soldiers and cars. They take out their crayons and paper. They draw pictures of flowers and hearts and rainbows. They write "peace" and "love" and their names. They give their pictures to Tim's mom. She smiles and hugs them. She says they are very good and kind. She says they are making the world a better place. Tim and Sam smile too. They are glad. They are friends.
+Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big pond with many fish and shrimp. The fish and shrimp swim and jump in the water.
+
+"Look, Anna, the shrimp are dancing!" Ben says. He points to the small pink things that move fast.
+
+Anna laughs. "They are not dancing, Ben. They are swimming. Do you want to dance with me?" She asks.
+
+Ben nods. He likes to dance with Anna. They hold hands and spin and hop and skip. They dance like the shrimp.
+
+But the wind is cold. It makes them shiver. They stop dancing and hug each other.
+
+"Let's go home, Anna. It's too cold here." Ben says.
+
+"OK, Ben. But can we come back tomorrow and see the shrimp again?" Anna says.
+
+"Sure, Anna. Maybe they will dance for us again." Ben says.
+
+They smile and run to their homes. They are happy. They like the park. They like the shrimp. They like to dance.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a big doll and Ben had a small car. They were having fun until Ben saw Lily's doll and wanted it.
+
+"Give me your doll!" Ben said to Lily.
+
+"No, it's mine!" Lily said to Ben.
+
+They started to pull the doll from each other. They were both very strong and did not want to surrender.
+
+"Stop it, you two!" Mom said from the kitchen. "You have to share your toys nicely. If you don't, I will take them away."
+
+Lily and Ben did not listen to Mom. They kept on fighting over the doll. They made a lot of noise and mess.
+
+Mom came to the living room and saw what they were doing. She was very angry. She took the doll and the car from them.
+
+"That's it, you are both in time out!" Mom said to Lily and Ben. "You have to sit on the couch and think about what you did. No toys for you until you say sorry to each other."
+
+Lily and Ben felt very sad. They did not like time out. They did not like losing their toys. They realized they were stupid to fight over the doll.
+
+They looked at each other and said, "I'm sorry."
+
+They hugged and made up. They told Mom they were sorry too.
+
+Mom smiled and said, "That's good. I'm glad you learned your lesson. Now you can have your toys back. But you have to share them, okay?"
+
+Lily and Ben nodded and said, "Okay."
+
+Mom gave them their toys back. She also gave them a treat. She had made some jelly for them. It was red and wobbly and sweet.
+
+Lily and Ben loved jelly. They thanked Mom and ate it happily. They also played with their toys nicely. They did not fight anymore. They learned to surrender and share.
+Anna loves to bake with her mom. They have a big bowl, a spoon, some eggs, some flour, some sugar, and some bananas. Mom says they are making banana bread. Anna likes banana bread. It is sweet and soft and yummy.
+
+Mom peels the bananas and breaks them into small pieces. She puts them in the bowl and gives Anna the spoon. Anna mashes the bananas with the spoon. She likes to mash them. They make a squishy sound. Mom cracks the eggs and adds them to the bowl. She also adds the flour and the sugar. She tells Anna to stir everything together.
+
+Anna stirs the batter with the spoon. It is hard work. She uses both hands. The batter is thick and sticky. Mom helps her a little. She says, "Good job, Anna. You are a great baker." Anna smiles. She likes to help mom. She likes to bake.
+
+Mom pours the batter into a pan. She puts the pan in the oven. She sets the timer. She says, "Now we have to wait for the banana bread to bake. It will take about an hour. What do you want to do while we wait?" Anna thinks. She says, "Can we read a book?" Mom nods. She says, "Sure. Let's go to the living room and pick a book."
+
+Mom and Anna go to the living room. They sit on the couch. They have a lot of books. Anna picks her favorite one. It is about a bunny and a carrot. Mom reads the book to Anna. Anna listens. She likes the story. She likes the pictures. She likes mom's voice. It is peaceful. She feels happy. She can smell the banana bread. It smells good. She can't wait to taste it. She hopes mom will let her have a slice. She thinks, "Baking is fun."
+Lily and Ben are playing in the garden. They have a big box and some crayons. They want to make a house for their dolls.
+
+"Let's move the box over there, near the tree," Ben says. "It will be more shady and cool."
+
+"OK," Lily agrees. They push and pull the box together until it is in a good spot. Then they start to draw windows and doors and flowers on the box with their crayons. They make it very beautiful.
+
+When they are done, they put their dolls inside the box and pretend they are a family. They make up stories and voices for their dolls. They have a lot of fun.
+
+After a while, Lily feels something in her tummy. She needs to go to the toilet. She tells Ben.
+
+"Ben, I have to go to the toilet. Can you watch our house and our dolls for me?"
+
+"Sure, Lily. Go ahead. I will be here," Ben says.
+
+Lily runs to the house and looks for the toilet. She finds it in the bathroom. She opens the door and sees something that makes her stop. There is a big spider on the toilet seat. It is black and hairy and has eight legs. Lily is scared of spiders. She screams.
+
+"Help! Help! Spider! Spider!" she cries.
+
+Ben hears her scream and runs to the house. He follows her voice and finds her in the bathroom. He sees the spider too. He is not scared of spiders. He thinks they are cool.
+
+"Don't worry, Lily. It's just a spider. It won't hurt you. Look, I will move it for you," he says.
+
+He takes a piece of paper and gently scoops the spider up. He carries it outside and puts it on a leaf. The spider crawls away.
+
+"There, it's gone. You can go to the toilet now, Lily," he says.
+
+Lily is relieved and grateful. She hugs Ben and says thank you.
+
+"Thank you, Ben. You are very brave and kind. You are my best friend," she says.
+
+They smile at each other and go back to their box house. They play some more with their dolls. They are happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing with their toy trains on the floor. They had a big engine that made noises and smoke, and many small cars that they could hook and unhook. They liked to make the engine go fast and slow, and to scatter the cars all over the room.
+
+"Choo choo!" Lily said, as she pushed the engine along the track. "Look how fast it goes!"
+
+"Too fast!" Ben said, as he tried to catch up with his car. "Slow down, Lily!"
+
+"No, it's fun!" Lily said, as she made the engine go faster and faster. "Whee!"
+
+But then, the engine hit a bump on the carpet and flew off the track. It crashed into the wall and broke into pieces. Smoke and sparks came out of it.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily and Ben cried, as they ran to the engine. "Our engine! It's broken!"
+
+They looked at the engine, and saw that it was not working anymore. They felt sad and angry.
+
+"It's your fault!" Ben said, pointing at Lily. "You made it go too fast!"
+
+"No, it's your fault!" Lily said, pointing at Ben. "You made the track bumpy!"
+
+They started to argue and shout at each other. They were very impatient and did not want to share or help.
+
+"Stop it!" their mom said, as she came into the room. She saw the broken engine and the scattered cars. She was not happy. "What happened here?"
+
+"Lily broke the engine!" Ben said.
+
+"Ben broke the engine!" Lily said.
+
+"No, you both broke the engine!" their mom said. "You were playing too rough and not careful. You need to apologize and clean up this mess."
+
+Lily and Ben looked at each other. They knew their mom was right. They felt sorry and ashamed.
+
+"Sorry, Lily," Ben said.
+
+"Sorry, Ben," Lily said.
+
+They hugged each other and said sorry to their mom. Then they helped each other to pick up the cars and put them in a box. They also tried to fix the engine, but it was too damaged. They decided to save their money and buy a new one.
+
+They learned their lesson. They promised to play nicely and gently with their toys, and to respect each other. They also thanked their mom for being patient and kind. They were happy again.
+Lila and Ben loved to play outside in winter. They liked to make snowmen, throw snowballs, and slide on the ice. But their favorite thing was to spin on the frozen pond. They would hold hands and go round and round until they felt dizzy and fell down.
+
+One day, they went to the pond with their mom. She told them to be careful and not go too far. She sat on a bench and watched them spin and laugh. She smiled and took out her phone to call dad.
+
+But Lila and Ben did not listen to mom. They wanted to spin faster and faster. They went to the middle of the pond, where the ice was thin and light. They did not see the cracks and the water underneath.
+
+"Look, Ben, we are spinning so fast!" Lila said.
+
+"Yes, Lila, we are like stars!" Ben said.
+
+But then they heard a loud crack. The ice broke and they fell into the cold water. They screamed and splashed. Mom heard them and dropped her phone. She ran to the pond and saw them in trouble. She grabbed a branch and reached out to them.
+
+"Hold on, Lila, hold on, Ben!" she shouted. "I'm coming to get you!"
+
+She pulled them out of the water and hugged them. They were wet and cold and scared. She wrapped them in her coat and took them to the car. She drove them home and gave them hot chocolate and cookies. She told them they were very lucky and very silly. She told them to never spin on the light ice again.
+
+Lila and Ben nodded and said they were sorry. They learned their lesson. They still liked to spin, but only on the thick ice or on the floor. They never forgot the day they spun too fast and fell into the water. They never forgot how mom saved them and loved them. They never forgot the winter they were like stars.
+Ben and Mia like to play with cardboard. They have many cardboard boxes in their room. They can make anything with cardboard. They can make a house, a car, a boat, or a plane.
+
+One day, they decide to make a plane with cardboard. They cut and tape the cardboard to make a big plane. They draw windows and wings and a tail. They also make a steering wheel and a propeller. They are very happy with their plane.
+
+"Let's ride the plane!" Ben says. "We can fly to the moon!"
+
+"OK!" Mia says. "You can be the pilot and I can be the co-pilot!"
+
+They put on their helmets and goggles. They climb into the plane. They pretend to start the engine and make noises. They pretend to take off and fly in the air. They see the clouds and the birds and the sun. They have a lot of fun.
+
+"Look, there is the moon!" Mia says. "We made it!"
+
+"Wow, it is so big and bright!" Ben says. "Can we land on it?"
+
+"Sure, why not?" Mia says. "Let's go!"
+
+They pretend to land on the moon. They get out of the plane. They jump and bounce on the moon. They see stars and rocks and craters. They are very excited.
+
+"This is the best ride ever!" Ben says.
+
+"I agree!" Mia says. "We have a nice plane and a nice moon!"
+
+They hug and smile. They are very happy. They love to play with cardboard.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. They had a lot of fun.
+
+But then, a big dog came out of nowhere and ran towards them. It barked loudly and scared them. The dog wanted to play with the ball too, but it was too rough. It grabbed the ball with its teeth and ran away.
+
+"Hey, that's our ball!" Lily shouted. "Give it back!"
+
+Tom was afraid of the dog. He wanted to go home. He pulled Lily's hand and said, "Let's go, Lily. The dog is too big and mean. We can find another ball later."
+
+But Lily was angry. She liked the ball. It was her favorite. She ran after the dog and tried to get the ball back. She did not listen to Tom.
+
+Tom followed Lily, but he was not fast enough. He lost sight of her and the dog. He did not know where they went. He felt alone and sad.
+
+He heard a loud noise. It was an alarm. It came from a fire truck. The fire truck was going to a house that was on fire. It had red lights and a siren. It was very noisy.
+
+Tom was scared of the fire truck. He thought it was going to hit him. He ran away from the road and hid behind a tree. He wished Lily was with him. He missed her.
+
+He did not see Lily and the dog come back. They had disappeared. He did not know what to do. He cried. He wanted his mom and dad. He wanted his ball. He wanted his sister. He hoped they would find him soon.
+Tom and Mia are twins. They like to play with their toys in the living room. But today, Mom says they have to take a shower before lunch. Tom and Mia do not like showers. They like to stay dirty and have fun.
+
+"No shower, Mom!" Tom says. He frowns and crosses his arms.
+
+"Me too, no shower!" Mia says. She frowns and stamps her feet.
+
+"Sorry, kids, you have to take a shower. You are very dirty and smelly. Come on, it will be quick and fun. You can play with the green soap and the yellow duck." Mom says. She smiles and tries to pick up Tom.
+
+Tom runs away and hides behind the couch. Mia runs away and hides under the table. Mom sighs and looks for them.
+
+"Tom, Mia, where are you? Come out, come out, it's shower time!" Mom says. She finds Tom behind the couch and tickles him. Tom giggles and squirms.

+
+"Got you, Mia! Now let's go to the shower." Mom says. She carries Mia to the bathroom.
+
+Tom and Mia see the green soap and the yellow duck in the shower. They think they look fun. They decide to try them. They rub the green soap on their hair and body. They make bubbles and shapes. They splash the water and play with the yellow duck. They laugh and have fun.
+
+"See, kids, showers are not so bad. You are clean and happy now. And you smell good too." Mom says. She dries them with a towel and hugs them.
+
+"Thank you, Mom. We like showers now. Can we play with the green soap and the yellow duck again?" Tom and Mia say. They smile and hug Mom back.
+
+"Maybe later, kids. Now it's time for lunch. Let's go to the kitchen and eat." Mom says. She leads them to the kitchen and gives them sandwiches and juice.
+
+Tom and Mia eat their lunch and drink their juice. They are full and happy. They think showers are not so bad after all. They think Mom is the best. They love Mom.
+Sara loved her doll very much. She gave her doll a name, Lily, and a dress, pink. She played with her doll every day, and talked to her doll like a friend.
+
+One day, Sara's mom said they had to go to the store. Sara wanted to bring her doll, but mom said no. Mom said the store was too crowded and noisy, and Sara might lose her doll. Sara was sad, but she listened to mom. She put her doll on her bed, and said, "Bye, Lily. I will be back soon. Be a good doll and stay quiet."
+
+Sara and mom went to the store. They bought some food and some clothes. Sara saw some toys, but she did not want any. She only wanted her doll. She asked mom, "Can we go home now? I miss Lily."
+
+Mom said, "Yes, we can go home. But first, let me pay for the things we bought." Mom went to the cashier, and Sara waited for her. Sara was bored, and she looked around. She saw a girl, about her age, holding a doll. The doll looked like Lily, but it had a blue dress, not pink.
+
+Sara walked to the girl, and said, "Hi, I like your doll. Can I see it?" The girl smiled, and said, "Sure, you can see it. Her name is Anna. Do you have a doll too?" Sara nodded, and said, "Yes, I have a doll. Her name is Lily. She is at home, on my bed. She has a pink dress, like mine."
+
+The girl said, "Oh, that's nice. Do you want to play with Anna? You can hold her for a while, if you want." Sara said, "Yes, please. Thank you for letting me play with your doll." The girl handed Sara her doll, and said, "You're welcome. But be careful, okay? Don't drop her or hurt her. She is very precious to me."
+
+Sara took the doll, and hugged her. She felt happy, and said, "You are very pretty, Anna. You are very soft, too. I like you." The girl said, "I like you too, Sara. You are very kind and sweet. Do you want to be my friend?" Sara said, "Yes, I want to be your friend. You are very nice and friendly."
+
+They played with the doll for a while, and talked about their favorite things. They laughed and had fun. They did not notice that mom was looking for Sara. They did not hear mom calling Sara's name. They did not see mom getting worried and scared.
+
+Mom searched for Sara in the store. She asked the people and the workers if they saw Sara. She showed them a picture of Sara, and said, "Have you seen this girl? She is my daughter. She is lost. She has brown hair and brown eyes. She is wearing a pink dress and a pink bow. She is holding a doll, also with a pink dress. Please, help me find her."
+
+But no one had seen Sara. No one knew where she was. Mom felt very sad and very angry. She cried and shouted. She said, "Where is Sara? Where is my baby? Who took her? Who has her doll? Give her back to me. Give her back to me now."
+
+But Sara did not hear mom. Sara did not see mom. Sara did not know mom was looking for her. Sara was too busy playing with the doll. Sara was too happy with her new friend. Sara forgot about Lily. Sara forgot about mom. Sara forgot about everything.
+Ben and Lily were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two buttons for eyes. They were very happy.

+
+Ben and Lily were very sad. They cried and cried. They loved their snowman. They wanted him back.
+
+"Go away, bad dog!" Ben shouted. "You are mean! You broke our snowman!"
+
+The dog did not understand. He wagged his tail and licked Ben's face. He thought Ben was playing with him.
+
+Lily saw a big stick. She picked it up and threw it far away. She hoped the dog would chase it and leave them alone.
+
+"Look, Ben, ice!" she said. She pointed to a shiny pond. She had an idea. "Let's go skating! Maybe we can make a new snowman there."
+
+Ben wiped his tears. He liked skating. He followed Lily to the pond. They put on their boots and slid on the ice. They laughed and had fun.
+
+They saw some other kids skating too. They made new friends. They helped each other make a new snowman. They gave him a hat and a scarf. They found a new carrot and some rocks for his nose and eyes. They were very happy.
+
+The dog came back. He saw the new snowman. He wanted to play again. He ran towards the snowman.
+
+But this time, Ben and Lily were not afraid. They had a plan. They waited for the dog to come close. Then they threw some snowballs at him. They hit him on his nose and his ears. He yelped and ran away.
+
+"Goodbye, bad dog!" Lily said. "You can't break our snowman now!"
+
+Ben and Lily hugged each other. They felt calm and comforted. They had their snowman and their friends. They smiled and skated. They were very happy.

+
+One day, Sam was playing with his fire truck in the bathroom, when he heard his mom call him for lunch. He was very hungry, so he left his fire truck on the toilet seat and ran to the kitchen. He did not flush the toilet, because he wanted to come back and play later.
+
+But when he came back, he saw that his fire truck was gone. He looked in the toilet and saw that it was full of water. He was very sad and scared. He thought that his fire truck had drowned. He started to cry and shouted for his mom.
+
+His mom came and saw what had happened. She hugged Sam and said, "Don't worry, sweetie. Your fire truck is not dead. It is just wet. We can dry it and clean it and it will be fine. It will heal, just like your boo-boos."
+
+She took the fire truck out of the toilet and wrapped it in a towel. She used a hair dryer to blow warm air on it. She wiped it with a cloth and checked if it still made noises and moved the ladder. It did. She gave it back to Sam and said, "See? Your fire truck is impressive. It is strong and brave and can survive anything. Just like you."
+
+Sam smiled and hugged his fire truck. He thanked his mom and said, "I love you, mom. And I love my fire truck. I will never leave it on the toilet again. I will flush the toilet and put it in a safe place."
+
+His mom kissed him and said, "I love you too, Sam. And I'm proud of you. You are a good boy and a good fireman. Now, let's go and play with your fire truck. But first, wash your hands."

+"Look at me, I'm a singer!" Anna said, holding the spoon to her mouth. She sang a silly song that made Ben laugh.
+
+"I'm a king!" Ben said, putting the book on his head. He waved his hand and said, "You are my queen, Anna. You have to do what I say."
+
+Anna did not like that. She wanted to be a singer, not a queen. She said, "No, I don't. I want to sing and play. You can't tell me what to do."
+
+Ben frowned. He wanted to be a king, not a singer. He said, "Yes, I can. I'm the king and you have to listen to me."
+
+They started to argue and shout. They did not have fun anymore. They made a lot of noise and woke up their baby brother, who was sleeping in his crib.
+
+Their mom came into the living room. She was not happy. She said, "What are you doing, Anna and Ben? You are making too much noise and you woke up your brother. You have to be quiet and nice to each other."
+
+Anna and Ben felt sorry. They said, "We're sorry, mom. We were playing and we had a fight. We didn't mean to wake up our brother."
+
+Their mom said, "It's okay, but you have to be more careful. Your brother needs his nap and you need to rest too. It's almost time for your nap as well. Why don't you put away your toys and come with me to your room?"
+
+Anna and Ben nodded. They put away their spoon and their book and followed their mom to their room. They were tired from playing and arguing. They yawned and rubbed their eyes. Their mom tucked them in their beds and gave them a kiss. She said, "Good night, my sweeties. I love you."
+
+Anna and Ben said, "We love you too, mom. Good night." They closed their eyes and fell asleep. They dreamed of being singers and kings and having fun together.
+Ben and Lily were playing on the beach. They made a big sand castle with shells and sticks. They were very happy.
+
+But then a big boy came. He saw the sand castle and wanted it. He ran to the sand castle and kicked it. He broke it. He laughed and said, "This is my sand castle now!"
+
+Ben and Lily were very sad and angry. They shouted, "No! That is our sand castle! You are bad! You steal our sand castle!"
+
+The big boy did not care. He said, "I am bigger than you. I can do what I want. Go away!"
+
+But then a big wave came. It was bigger than the big boy. It splashed on the beach and washed away the sand castle. It also wet the big boy. He was very scared and cold. He cried and ran away.
+
+Ben and Lily saw the wave and smiled. They said, "Thank you, wave! You are good! You help us!"
+
+They hugged each other and decided to make a new sand castle. They found a new spot that was safe from the waves. They also found some new shells and sticks. They made a new sand castle that was bigger and prettier than the old one. They were very happy again.
+
+They said, "This is our sand castle. It is very fit. We love it!"
+Bunny and Mouse were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big file on a bench. It had many papers with words and pictures inside.
+
+"Look, Bunny, what is that?" Mouse asked.
+
+"I don't know, Mouse. Maybe it is a book. Can we look at it?" Bunny said.
+
+They hopped on the bench and opened the file. They saw many papers with words and pictures. Some were about animals, some were about plants, some were about numbers.
+
+"Wow, this is so interesting, Bunny. Look, this is a picture of a lion. It is big and yellow and has a mane. And this is a picture of a flower. It is small and red and has petals. And this is a picture of a four. It is a number that means two and two," Mouse said.
+
+Bunny nodded and looked at the papers. He saw a picture of a kangaroo. It was big and brown and had a pouch. And it could hop very high and far.
+
+"Bunny, look, this is a picture of a kangaroo. It is like you, but bigger and better. It can hop higher and farther than you. Aren't you envious?" Mouse said.
+
+Bunny felt a sting in his heart. He liked to hop, but he could not hop as high and far as a kangaroo. He felt envious of the kangaroo. He wished he could be like the kangaroo.
+
+"No, Mouse, I am not envious. I am happy to be a bunny. I can hop fast and find carrots. And I have you as a friend. That is enough for me," Bunny said.
+
+Mouse smiled and hugged Bunny. He was sorry for making Bunny feel bad. He liked Bunny as he was. He did not want him to be envious of anyone.
+
+"You are right, Bunny. You are a good bunny and a good friend. I am happy to be a mouse. I can squeak and find cheese. And I have you as a friend. That is enough for me, too," Mouse said.
+
+They closed the file and hopped off the bench. They decided to play in the grass and look for carrots and cheese. They were happy and not envious of anyone. They were friends who liked to play in the park.
+Sara was very tired. She had played a lot with her toys and her friends. She wanted to go to sleep in her bed. But when she went to her room, she noticed something strange. Her bed was not normal. It was very big and soft and had many pillows and blankets. It looked like a bed for a grown-up, not for a little girl.
+
+"Mommy, what is this?" Sara asked. She was confused and a little scared.
+
+Mommy came to her room and smiled. "This is a surprise, Sara. This is your new bed. Do you like it?"
+
+Sara looked at the bed again. It was very different from her old bed, which was small and hard and had only one pillow and one blanket. She wondered if she would feel comfortable in the new bed.
+
+"Why do I have a new bed, Mommy?" Sara asked.
+
+Mommy hugged her and said, "Because you are a big girl now, Sara. You have grown so much and you need a bigger bed. And because I love you very much and I want you to have sweet dreams."
+
+Sara thought about it. She was a big girl now. She could do many things by herself, like brushing her teeth and putting on her shoes. Maybe she could try the new bed too. She climbed on the bed and felt the softness and the warmth. She snuggled with Mommy and said, "Thank you, Mommy. I love you too. And I like the new bed. It is very cozy."
+
+Mommy kissed her and said, "You're welcome, Sara. I'm glad you like it. Now, sleep well, my big girl."
+
+Sara closed her eyes and smiled. She felt happy and safe in her new bed. She had a very good night.
+Lily wanted to get a haircut. She had long hair that got in her eyes and mouth. She asked her mom to take her to the barber. Her mom said yes, but first they had to go to the doctor.
+
+At the doctor, Lily had to stand on a big scale. The doctor said she had to weigh her to see how much she grew. Lily was scared of the scale. It looked like a big metal monster. She held her mom's hand and stepped on it. The scale made a loud beep. The doctor smiled and said, "You are a big girl, Lily. You weigh 30 pounds. That's very good."
+
+Lily was happy. She liked being a big girl. She asked the doctor if she could get a haircut now. The doctor said yes, but she had to be careful. She said, "The barber has a sharp tool that he uses to cut hair. It's called scissors. You have to sit still and not move when he uses them. If you move, you might get hurt. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily nodded. She said, "I understand. I will be good and sit still. I want a short haircut like my mom's. I don't like long hair. It's dull and messy."
+
+The doctor gave her a sticker and said, "You are a brave girl, Lily. I'm sure you will like your haircut. Have fun at the barber."
+
+Lily and her mom left the doctor and went to the barber. The barber was a nice man with a big smile. He said, "Hello, Lily. I'm Bob. I'm going to give you a haircut. Do you know what you want?"
+
+Lily said, "I want a short haircut like my mom's. I don't like long hair. It's dull and messy."
+
+Bob said, "OK, Lily. I can do that. But you have to sit still and not move when I use my scissors. They are very sharp and can hurt you. Do you understand?"
+
+Lily said, "I understand. I will be good and sit still. I'm a big girl. I weigh 30 pounds."
+
+Bob said, "Wow, you are a big girl. And a smart girl. And a brave girl. You are ready for a haircut. Let's go."
+
+Bob took Lily to a big chair and put a cape around her. He combed her hair and started to cut it with his scissors. Lily watched in the mirror as her long hair fell to the floor. She felt lighter and happier. She liked her short haircut. It was not dull and messy. It was cute and neat.
+
+Bob said, "You are done, Lily. You look beautiful. Do you like your haircut?"
+
+Lily said, "I love it, Bob. Thank you. You are the best barber ever."
+
+Bob said, "You are very welcome, Lily. You are the best customer ever. You were good and still. You did not move or cry. You were brave and smart. You deserve a treat. Here, have a lollipop."
+
+Lily took the lollipop and smiled. She said, "Thank you, Bob. You are very nice. I like you. I like the doctor too. She gave me a sticker. I had a fun day. I got a haircut and a lollipop and a sticker. I'm a big girl. I weigh 30 pounds."
+
+Lily and her mom hugged Bob and said goodbye. They went home and showed Lily's dad her new haircut. He said, "You look wonderful, Lily. You are a big girl. You weigh 30 pounds. I'm proud of you."
+
+Lily said, "Thank you, dad. I'm proud of me too."
+Lily and Ben were playing in the kitchen. They saw a big bowl of celery on the table. Lily liked celery, but Ben did not.
+
+"Let's eat some celery," Lily said.
+
+"No, I don't want to. Celery is yucky," Ben said.
+
+"Please, Ben. Celery is good for you. It makes you strong and healthy," Lily said.
+
+"I don't care. I want cookies," Ben said.
+
+He saw a jar of cookies on the counter. He climbed on a chair and reached for the jar. He opened it and took a big cookie.
+
+"Ben, that's naughty! You can't have cookies before lunch. Put it back," Lily said.
+
+But Ben did not listen. He bit the cookie and smiled. He saw another cookie with chocolate chips. He took it too.
+
+"Ben, stop! You are being very bad. Mommy will be angry," Lily said.
+
+She tried to take the cookie from Ben, but he pushed her away. He ran to the living room with the cookies.
+
+Lily followed him. She saw him sitting on the couch, eating the cookies. He had crumbs on his face and hands. He looked happy.
+
+Lily felt sad and angry. She wanted to tell Mommy, but she did not want to be a tattletale. She did not know what to do.
+
+She saw a glass of water on the coffee table. She had an idea. She took the glass and poured the water on Ben's head.
+
+"Hey, what are you doing?" Ben shouted.
+
+He dropped the cookies and wiped his eyes. He was wet and cold. He looked surprised and mad.
+
+"That's what you get for being naughty. Now your cookies are dry and yucky, like celery," Lily said.
+
+She smiled and ran back to the kitchen. She picked up a piece of celery and ate it. She felt good and proud.
+
+She hoped Ben learned his lesson. She hoped Mommy did not see the mess. She hoped they could still be friends.
+Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with clay. They make shapes and animals with clay. They have fun.
+
+One day, they find a big ball of clay in the park. They are happy. They want to share the clay. But Tom wants more clay than Jen. He says, "This is my clay. You can have a little bit. I am clever. I can make better things than you."
+
+Jen is sad. She says, "No, Tom. That is not fair. We should share the clay. We are both clever. We can make nice things together."
+
+Tom is angry. He does not want to share. He kicks Jen in the leg. Jen falls down. She cries. She is hurt.
+
+Tom takes the clay and runs away. He thinks he is clever. But he is not. He is mean. He has no friends. He is alone. He is sorry.
+Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play together in the park. One day, they see a big house with a fence. The house has many windows and a shiny car.
+
+"Wow, look at that house!" Ben says. "The people who live there must be very rich."
+
+Mia nods. She sees a woman in a dress come out of the house. The woman has a glass in her hand. She drinks from the glass and smiles.
+
+"Hello, children," the woman says. "Do you want to come inside and see my house?"
+
+Ben and Mia are curious. They want to see the house. They walk to the fence and say yes.
+
+The woman opens the gate and lets them in. She shows them her house. It has many rooms and many things. Ben and Mia see a big TV, a soft bed, a fluffy cat, and a lot of toys.
+
+"This is my house," the woman says. "I have everything I want. I am very happy."
+
+Ben and Mia think the house is nice, but they also miss their own homes. They miss their parents, their siblings, their pets, and their friends.
+
+"Can we go now?" Mia asks. "We have to go home soon."
+
+The woman looks surprised. She does not understand why they want to leave.
+
+"But why?" she says. "Don't you like my house? Don't you want to stay and play with me?"
+
+Ben and Mia shake their heads. They say thank you and goodbye. They run to the gate and call their parents. They tell them where they are and ask them to pick them up.
+
+The woman watches them go. She feels lonely. She has a big house, but she has no friends. She has a glass, but she has no one to share it with. She has a lot of money, but she is not happy.
+Lily did not like cauliflower. She thought it was white and hard and yucky. She always left it on her plate when Mommy gave it to her for dinner.
+
+One day, Mommy said, "Lily, you have to eat your cauliflower. It is good for you. It makes you strong and healthy."
+
+Lily made a face and said, "No, Mommy, I don't want to. It is bad for me. It makes me sick and sad."
+
+Mommy was worried. She wanted Lily to eat different foods and not be picky. She decided to explain to Lily why cauliflower was good for her.
+
+She said, "Lily, do you know what cauliflower is? It is a flower that grows in the garden. It is white because it has a lot of milk in it. Milk is good for your bones and teeth. Cauliflower also has vitamins that help your eyes and skin. And it tastes yummy when you dip it in cheese or ketchup."
+
+Lily looked at the cauliflower on her plate. She was curious. She picked up a small piece and dipped it in cheese. She put it in her mouth and chewed. It was soft and cheesy and not yucky at all.
+
+She said, "Mommy, you are right. Cauliflower is good for me. And it is tasty too. Can I have some more, please?"
+
+Mommy smiled and said, "Of course, Lily. I'm glad you like it. You are a good girl for trying new foods."
+
+Lily ate all her cauliflower and felt happy. She gave Mommy a hug and said, "Thank you, Mommy, for explaining to me. I love you and I love cauliflower."
+Ben and Sam are brothers. They like to play in the park. There is a big tunnel in the park. It is dark and long. Ben and Sam want to go inside the tunnel.
+
+"Come on, Sam, let's go in the tunnel!" Ben says. He runs to the tunnel.
+
+"No, Ben, wait!" Sam says. He is scared of the tunnel. He thinks there are monsters in the tunnel. He does not want to go in.
+
+"Sam, you are foolish!" Ben says. He laughs at Sam. He thinks Sam is a baby. He goes in the tunnel.
+
+Sam is sad. He does not like when Ben laughs at him. He wants to be brave like Ben. He thinks maybe he should go in the tunnel too. He follows Ben.
+
+But the tunnel is not fun. It is dark and cold. Ben and Sam cannot see anything. They hear strange noises. They feel something touch their feet. They are scared.
+
+"Ben, I don't like the tunnel!" Sam says. He cries.
+
+"Me neither, Sam!" Ben says. He cries too. He wishes he did not go in the tunnel. He wishes he listened to Sam.
+
+They need help. They need someone to find them. They need to get out of the tunnel.
+
+They hear a voice. It is their mom. She is looking for them. She sees the tunnel. She goes in the tunnel.
+
+"Ben, Sam, where are you?" Mom says. She is worried.
+
+"Mom, we are here!" Ben and Sam say. They are happy. They see Mom's light. They run to Mom.
+
+Mom hugs them. She is glad they are safe. She is angry they went in the tunnel.
+
+"Ben, Sam, why did you go in the tunnel?" Mom says. She is stern.
+

+
+"Ben, is that true?" Mom says. She is disappointed.
+
+"Yes, Mom, I'm sorry. I was foolish. I should not have gone in the tunnel. I should not have made fun of Sam. I was scared in the tunnel." Ben says. He is sorry.
+
+Mom nods. She is proud of Ben for telling the truth. She is proud of Sam for being honest too.
+
+"Ben, Sam, I love you. But you need to be careful. You need to listen to me. You need to stay away from the tunnel. The tunnel is not safe. The tunnel is not fun. The tunnel is dangerous." Mom says. She is serious.
+
+"Yes, Mom, we understand. We will not go in the tunnel again. We will listen to you. We will be careful." Ben and Sam say. They are sincere.
+
+Mom smiles. She is happy. She takes Ben and Sam by the hand. She leads them out of the tunnel. She takes them home. She gives them cookies. She reads them a story. She tucks them in bed. She kisses them good night.
+
+Ben and Sam are brothers. They learned a lesson. They love each other. They love Mom. They sleep well. They dream of the park. But not of the tunnel.
+Tom is a boy who likes to help his mom and dad. He likes to do jobs like setting the table, watering the plants, and putting away his toys. He thinks jobs are fun and make him feel good.
+
+One day, Tom sees his mom working on her laptop. She looks unhappy and tired. Tom wants to help her, so he asks, "Mom, can I do your job?"
+
+Mom smiles and says, "Thank you, Tom, but my job is not for you. My job is to write emails and reports and talk to people on the phone. It is very boring and hard. Sometimes it makes me uncomfortable."
+
+Tom feels sad. He does not like to see his mom uncomfortable. He says, "But I want to make you happy. Can I do something else for you?"
+
+Mom hugs Tom and says, "You are very sweet, Tom. You make me happy by being a good boy and doing your own jobs. You can also help me by giving me a kiss and a hug, and telling me a joke or a story. That will make me feel better."
+
+Tom nods and says, "OK, Mom. I love you. I have a joke for you. Why did the chicken cross the road?"
+
+Mom says, "I don't know, Tom. Why did the chicken cross the road?"
+
+Tom says, "To get to the other side!"
+
+Mom laughs and says, "That is a very funny joke, Tom. You are very smart and funny. You have done a great job today."
+Sara and Ben are friends. They like to play in the garden. There is a big hedge in the garden. The hedge has many leaves and flowers. Sara and Ben like to hide behind the hedge and pretend they are animals.
+
+One day, Sara and Ben are playing behind the hedge. Sara says, "I am a lion. I roar and run fast. What are you, Ben?"
+
+Ben says, "I am a bird. I sing and fly high. Watch me, Sara!"
+
+Ben tries to jump over the hedge, but he is not ready. He falls on the other side of the hedge. Sara hears a thud and a cry.
+
+"Ben, are you okay?" Sara asks. She runs to the hedge and looks over.
+
+Ben is lying on the grass. He has a bump on his head and a tear on his shirt. He says, "I am not okay. I hurt my head and my shirt. I am sorry, Sara. I did a bad jump."
+
+Sara says, "It's okay, Ben. You are brave. You tried to fly like a bird. But you need to be careful. The hedge is too high for you. Come, I will help you."
+
+Sara helps Ben to stand up. She hugs him and says, "You are my friend. I like to play with you. Let's go to the house and get a band-aid and a new shirt. Then we can play again. Maybe we can be something else. What do you want to be, Ben?"
+
+Ben smiles and says, "I want to be a hedge. I can be green and quiet and have many leaves and flowers. What do you want to be, Sara?"
+
+Sara thinks and says, "I want to be a hedge too. We can be hedge friends. We can hide and pretend and have fun. Come on, Ben. Let's go and get ready to be hedges."
+Lily liked to play with her toys in her room. She had many toys in her drawer. She had dolls, cars, blocks, and books. She liked to change her dolls' clothes and make them talk.
+
+One day, she found a new toy in her drawer. It was a red pepper. She did not know what it was. She thought it was a funny toy. She picked it up and smelled it. It smelled strong. She decided to make her dolls eat it.
+
+She gave the pepper to her favorite doll, Anna. She said, "Here, Anna, this is your lunch. It is yummy and red. Try it." She put the pepper in Anna's mouth.
+
+Anna did not like the pepper. She spit it out. She said, "No, Lily, this is not yummy. This is spicy. It hurts my mouth. It makes me cry. I don't want it."
+
+Lily was surprised. She did not know the pepper was spicy. She felt sorry for Anna. She said, "I'm sorry, Anna. I did not know. I thought it was a toy. I will not give you spicy things again. I will give you something sweet. Do you want a cookie?"
+
+Anna nodded. She said, "Yes, please. I want a cookie. Thank you, Lily. You are a good friend. I love you."

+Lily hugged Anna. She said, "I love you too, Anna. You are my best doll. Come, let's change your clothes. I have a pretty dress for you." She put the pepper back in the drawer. She did not play with it again. She played with her dolls and cookies. She was happy.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big pile of leaves and ran to jump in it. They had fun throwing leaves in the air and hiding under them. But then, Lily felt something hard and cold under her hand. She pulled it out and screamed. It was a skeleton!
+
+"Look, Ben, a skeleton!" Lily said, holding the bone. "It's scary!"
+
+Ben came closer and looked at the bone. He was not scared. He was curious. He took the bone from Lily and said, "It's not scary, Lily. It's just a bone. Maybe it's from a dog or a cat. Let's find more bones and make a skeleton!"
+
+Lily did not like that idea. She did not want to touch more bones. She wanted to play with something else. She said, "No, Ben, I don't want to make a skeleton. I want to stir some mud and make a cake. Let's go to the pond and get some mud!"
+
+Ben did not like that idea. He did not want to stir mud. He wanted to play with bones. He said, "No, Lily, I don't want to stir mud. I want to make a skeleton. It's fun and cool. Let's stay here and find more bones!"
+
+Lily and Ben started to argue. They both wanted to play different things. They both wanted the other to do what they wanted. They both felt miserable. They did not have fun anymore. They did not play together anymore. They just sat on opposite sides of the pile of leaves, holding their bone and their mud, and looking angry.
+Ben loves to play with his trumpet. He likes to make loud noises and pretend he is in a band. He has a blue trumpet that his dad gave him for his birthday. He takes it everywhere he goes.
+
+One day, he goes to the park with his mom and his sister, Lily. Lily likes to swing and slide, but Ben only wants to play with his trumpet. He sits on a bench and blows his trumpet as hard as he can. He does not care if he bothers other people.
+
+"Ben, stop that!" Lily says. "You are too loud. You are hurting my ears. Come and play with me on the slide."
+
+But Ben does not listen. He likes his trumpet too much. He urges Lily to leave him alone. He says, "No, I want to play with my trumpet. It is fun. You are boring."
+
+Lily feels sad and angry. She does not like Ben's trumpet. She thinks it is noisy and rude. She decides to teach Ben a lesson. She waits until Ben is not looking, and then she runs to the bench and grabs his trumpet. She runs away with it, laughing.
+
+"Hey, give it back!" Ben shouts. He chases after Lily, but she is faster. He feels scared and mad. He loves his trumpet. He does not want to lose it.
+
+Lily runs to the other side of the park, where there is a pond. She sees some ducks swimming in the water. She thinks it would be funny to throw Ben's trumpet in the pond. She says, "Bye-bye, trumpet. Go and play with the ducks."
+
+She tosses the trumpet in the air, but she does not aim well. The trumpet does not land in the pond. It lands on the head of a big man who is sitting on a bench. The man is startled and angry. He stands up and yells, "Who did this? Who threw this trumpet at me?"
+
+Lily is scared. She did not mean to hit the man. She runs away, leaving the trumpet behind. Ben sees what happened. He runs to the man and says, "I'm sorry, sir. That is my trumpet. My sister took it from me. She was trying to throw it in the pond."
+
+The man looks at Ben and sees his blue trumpet. He sees that Ben is sorry and scared. He feels sorry for him too. He says, "It's okay, kid. I'm not hurt. But you should be more careful with your trumpet. It is not a toy. It is a musical instrument. You should respect it and play it nicely."
+
+He gives Ben his trumpet back. Ben says, "Thank you, sir. I will. I'm sorry for the trouble."
+
+He hugs his trumpet and walks back to his mom and sister. He decides to play with his trumpet more quietly and kindly. He also decides to play with Lily on the slide sometimes. He learns that his trumpet is not the only thing that is fun. He learns to share and care.
+Lily was a girl who liked to mix things. She mixed water and soap to make bubbles. She mixed paint and paper to make art. She mixed flour and sugar to make cookies. She always had fun when she mixed things.
+
+One day, Lily saw a big bottle on the shelf. It was light blue and had a label with words she could not read. She wondered what was inside. She wanted to mix it with something. She climbed on a chair and reached for the bottle.
+
+"Stop, Lily!" her mom shouted. "That is not for mixing! That is bleach! It is very bad for you!"
+
+But Lily did not listen. She was too curious. She opened the bottle and poured some of the liquid into a cup. It smelled funny. She saw a bottle of juice on the table. She thought it would make a good mix. She poured some of the juice into the cup. It fizzed and changed color.
+
+"Look, mom!" Lily said. "I made a new mix! Can I drink it?"
+
+"No, Lily, no!" her mom cried. "That is poison! It will make you very sick! Spit it out!"
+
+But Lily did not spit it out. She took a sip of the mix. It tasted bad. She felt a pain in her mouth and throat. She started to cough and cry. Her mom ran to her and took the cup away. She called for help.
+
+But it was too late. Lily had swallowed too much of the poison. She fell to the floor and stopped breathing. Her mom hugged her and sobbed. She wished she had watched Lily more closely. She wished Lily had listened to her. She wished Lily had not mixed the bleach and the juice. She wished Lily was still alive.
+Tom was a youth who liked to play with his ball. He had a blue ball that he could kick and throw and catch. He liked to play with his ball in the park with his friends.
+
+One day, he went to the park with his ball, but he saw a big dog. The dog was not friendly. It ran to Tom and took his ball in its mouth. It ran away with his ball and did not give it back.
+
+Tom was very sad. He frowns and cries. He wants his ball back. He does not like the dog. He looks for his friends, but he does not see them. He feels alone and scared.
+
+Then, he hears a voice. It is his mom. She came to the park to find him. She sees him crying and hugs him. She says, "Don't worry, Tom. I'm here. We can get you a new ball. The dog was bad, but you are good. I love you."
+
+Tom feels better. He stops crying and smiles. He hugs his mom back. He says, "I love you too, mom. Thank you for coming. Can we go home now?"
+
+Mom says, "Yes, we can go home now. Come on, let's go." She takes his hand and they walk away from the park. Tom feels happy again. He still misses his ball, but he knows he has his mom. He thinks maybe he can get a red ball next time. He likes red too.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the living room. They found some scissors on the table. Lily wanted to cut some paper, but Ben wanted to cut Lily's hair.
+
+"Give me the scissors, Lily!" Ben said.
+
+"No, they are mine!" Lily said.
+
+They pulled and pulled on the scissors. They did not listen to their mom, who told them to stop and be gentle.
+
+Suddenly, the scissors snapped shut on Lily's finger. She screamed and cried. Blood came out of her finger. It hurt a lot.
+
+Mom ran to Lily and wrapped her finger with a cloth. She was very angry and sad.
+
+"Look what you did, Ben! You hurt your sister! You are very naughty! Go to your room now!" Mom said.
+
+Ben felt sorry and scared. He dropped the scissors and ran to his room. He wished he had been gentle and nice to Lily. He hoped she would be okay. He did not like the bad ending.
+Tim and Mia were best friends. They liked to play in the park every day. They had a lot of fun on the slide, the seesaw and the swing. The swing was their favorite. They would take turns to push each other and go higher and higher.
+
+One day, a big boy came to the park. He was mean and rude. He wanted to use the swing, but Tim and Mia were on it. He pushed them off and took the swing for himself. He laughed at them and called them names. He said they were ignorant and stupid.
+
+Tim and Mia were sad and angry. They did not like the big boy. They wanted to have the swing back. They did not know what to do. They sat on a bench and watched the big boy swing. He looked happy and proud.
+
+Mia had an idea. She whispered to Tim: "Let's pray to God. Maybe he can help us. Maybe he can make the big boy go away or be nice to us."
+
+Tim nodded. He liked Mia's idea. He closed his eyes and folded his hands. He prayed to God in his heart. He said: "Dear God, please help us. We want to play on the swing. The big boy is mean and rude. He took our swing and hurt us. Please make him go away or be nice to us. Thank you, God. Amen."
+
+Mia did the same. She prayed to God in her heart. She said: "Dear God, please help us. We want to play on the swing. The big boy is mean and rude. He took our swing and hurt us. Please make him go away or be nice to us. Thank you, God. Amen."
+
+They opened their eyes and looked at the swing. The big boy was still on it. He was still laughing and calling them names. He did not care about their prayers. He did not care about God.
+
+Tim and Mia felt sad and hopeless. They did not understand why God did not help them. They did not understand why the big boy was so mean and rude. They did not understand why he was so ignorant and stupid. They wished they could have the swing back. They wished they could have fun again. They wished they could be happy again.
+Lily loved to play in the bath. She had many toys that she could splash and float and make bubbles with. Her favorite toy was a little plastic fish that could dive under the water and swim around. Lily liked to pretend that she was a fish too, and dive with her toy.
+
+One day, Lily saw a shiny thing in the bath. It was a teaspoon that her mom had left there by mistake. Lily was curious and picked it up. She wondered what it was for. She tried to use it as a boat, but it sank. She tried to use it as a hat, but it fell off. She tried to use it as a spoon, but it was too big for her mouth.
+
+Then, Lily had an idea. She decided to use the teaspoon as a diving board. She put it on the edge of the bath and made her fish toy jump from it into the water. She clapped and laughed and said, "Wee!" She wanted to try it herself, but she was a little anxious. She had never dived from so high before. What if she hit her head? What if she got water in her nose?
+
+Lily took a deep breath and held the fish toy in her hand. She counted to three and jumped from the teaspoon. She felt a splash and a tickle and a thrill. She opened her eyes and saw the water around her. She saw her fish toy swimming next to her. She smiled and said, "Wow!" She was not anxious anymore. She was happy. She had learned how to dive.
+Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the garden and look for bugs and flowers. One day, they saw a big green fruit hanging from a tree. It was an avocado.
+
+"Wow, look at that!" Ben said. "What is it?"
+
+"I don't know," Lily said. "Maybe it's a ball. Let's get it!"
+
+They ran to the tree and tried to reach the avocado. But it was too high for them. They jumped and stretched, but they could not touch it.
+
+"Maybe we need a stick," Ben said. He looked around and found a long stick on the ground. He picked it up and gave it to Lily.
+
+"Here, you try," he said.
+
+Lily took the stick and poked the avocado. It wobbled, but it did not fall. She poked harder and harder, until the stick broke.
+
+"Oh no!" Lily said. "Now what?"
+
+Ben looked at the broken stick and the avocado. He felt worried. He did not want to give up. He had an idea.
+
+"Come here," he said. He whispered something in Lily's ear. Lily nodded and smiled.
+
+They ran to the house and got a ladder. They carried it to the tree and set it up. They climbed the ladder and reached the avocado. They pulled it down and hugged it.
+
+"Yay, we did it!" Lily said.
+
+They ran back to the house with the avocado. They wanted to show it to their mom and dad. They were very happy. They did not know that avocados were not balls, but fruits. They did not know that they had to cut them open and eat them. They just liked their big green ball. They liked to play together. They were best friends.
+Tim and Tom were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many cars, trains, blocks and animals. But they did not like to share. They always fought over who had more or better toys.
+
+One day, their mom gave them a new toy. It was a big truck with a brush at the back. The brush could attach to the truck and spin around. It could clean the floor or make patterns with paint. Mom said, "This is a special toy for both of you. You have to take turns and share it nicely. If you do, you will have more fun and I will be proud of you."
+
+Tim and Tom were excited. They wanted to try the new toy. But they did not listen to mom. They both grabbed the truck and pulled it. They shouted, "It's mine! No, it's mine!" The truck broke in half. The brush fell off. They started to cry.
+
+Mom heard the noise and came to see. She was sad and angry. She said, "Look what you did! You broke the new toy. You were not obedient. You did not share. Now you have no toy and no fun. You have to learn to be kind and respectful to each other. That is the right thing to do."
+
+Tim and Tom felt sorry. They said, "We are sorry, mom. We were selfish and rude. We will try to be better. Can you fix the toy, please?" Mom said, "I will try, but it may not work as well as before. You have to be careful with your things and with each other. Sharing is caring. That is the moral of the story."
+Lily was a little bunny who loved to hop and play. She had a big ball of yarn that she found in the barn. She liked to roll it, toss it, and cuddle it. It was her favorite toy.
+
+One day, she was hopping with her yarn in the meadow, when she saw a big, fierce dog. The dog barked and ran towards her. Lily was scared. She tried to hop away, but the dog was faster. He grabbed her yarn and ran off with it.
+
+"Hey, that's mine!" Lily cried. "Give it back!"
+
+The dog stopped and looked at her. He growled and showed his teeth. "No, it's mine now. It's soft and fun. Go away, little bunny, or I'll bite you!"
+
+Lily was sad and angry. She wanted her yarn back. She thought of a plan. She saw a big stick near a tree. She hopped to it and picked it up with her teeth. Then she hopped back to the dog.
+
+"Hey, dog, look what I have!" she said. "A stick! It's hard and crunchy. You want it?"
+
+The dog saw the stick and wagged his tail. He loved sticks. He dropped the yarn and ran to the stick. "Yes, I want it! Give it to me!"
+
+Lily threw the stick as far as she could. The dog chased after it. Lily quickly hopped to her yarn and grabbed it. Then she hopped away as fast as she could.
+
+She was happy to have her yarn back. She learned a lesson. She decided to hop and play with her yarn only in the barn, where it was safe. She never saw the fierce dog again.
+Ben likes to write in his brown journal every day. He writes about what he does, what he sees, and what he feels. He draws pictures too, with his crayons. He thinks writing is fun and helps him remember things.
+
+One day, he shows his journal to his friend Lily, who lives next door. Lily likes to read books and play with dolls. She looks at Ben's journal and says, "Wow, this is cool! You write a lot of words and draw a lot of things. Can I write in your journal too?"
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He likes Lily, but he also likes his journal. He says, "I don't know, Lily. This is my journal. It is special to me. I write about my own things. Maybe you can get your own journal and write in it."
+
+Lily looks sad. She says, "But I don't have a journal. And I don't know how to write as many words as you. And I don't have crayons. How can I get a journal?"
+
+Ben feels sorry for Lily. He says, "Maybe you can ask your mom or dad to buy you a journal. Or you can make one with some paper and a stapler. Or you can borrow one from the library. There are many ways to get a journal. I recommend you try one of them. Then you can write and draw whatever you want."
+
+Lily smiles. She says, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend. I will try to get a journal. And maybe we can share our journals sometimes and see what we write and draw. That would be fun, don't you think?"
+
+Ben nods. He says, "Yes, that would be fun. I like to see what you write and draw too. Maybe we can learn from each other. And maybe we can write a story together someday. That would be even more fun."
+
+They hug and go to play with their toys. They are happy to have each other and their journals.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the park with their friendly dog, Spot. They liked to run, slide, swing and throw a ball for Spot to catch. They were having a lot of fun.
+
+Then, they saw a big mouse near a trash can. The mouse had a piece of cheese in its mouth. It looked very happy. Tom and Lily wanted to see the mouse better, so they walked slowly towards it. Spot followed them, wagging his tail.
+
+"Hello, mouse," Lily said. "Do you like cheese?"
+
+The mouse looked at them and nodded. It smiled and made a squeaky sound. It seemed to like them too.
+
+"Can we share your cheese?" Tom asked. "We are hungry."
+
+The mouse nodded again. It put the cheese on the ground and broke it into three pieces. It gave one piece to Tom, one piece to Lily and kept one piece for itself. They all ate the cheese and thanked the mouse.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was a big truck coming to the park. The truck was very noisy and smelly. It scared the mouse. The mouse dropped its cheese and ran away. It vanished behind the trash can.
+
+"Where did the mouse go?" Lily asked.
+
+"I don't know," Tom said. "Maybe it hid."
+
+They looked for the mouse, but they could not find it. They felt sad. They liked the mouse. It was very friendly and generous.
+
+"Maybe it will come back later," Tom said.
+
+"I hope so," Lily said.
+
+They picked up the cheese that the mouse left and gave it to Spot. Spot was happy. He licked their faces and barked.
+
+They decided to keep playing in the park, but they also kept an eye on the trash can. They hoped to see the mouse again. They wanted to be its friends.
+Tim and Mia are twins. They like to play in the park with their mom and dad. One day, they see a big dog in the park. The dog is brown and fluffy. He has a red collar with a bell.
+
+"Can we pet the dog, mom?" Tim asks.
+
+"Sure, but we have to ask the owner first," mom says. She sees a lady sitting on a bench near the dog. She walks over and says hello. "Is this your dog? He is very cute. Can my kids pet him?"
+
+The lady smiles and nods. "Yes, this is Max. He is very friendly. You can pet him, but be gentle. He has a sore leg."
+
+Tim and Mia follow their mom to the dog. They see that his back leg has a bandage on it. They feel sorry for the dog.
+
+"What happened to his leg?" Mia asks.
+
+"He hurt it when he was running. He stepped on a sharp rock and cut it. He had to go to the vet and get stitches," the lady explains.
+
+"Does it hurt a lot?" Tim wonders.
+
+"Sometimes, but he is getting better. He likes to lie in the sun and rest. It makes him feel peaceful," the lady says.
+
+Tim and Mia gently stroke the dog's fur. They avoid touching his sore leg. The dog wags his tail and licks their faces. He likes the kids. They make him happy.
+
+"Thank you for letting us pet your dog. He is very nice," mom says.
+
+"You're welcome. Thank you for being kind to him. He needs a lot of love," the lady says.
+
+Tim and Mia say goodbye to the dog and the lady. They go back to their mom and dad. They tell them about the dog and his leg. They hope he will get well soon. They think he is a brave and good dog.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They saw a big tent with a sign that said "Magic Show". They wanted to see the magic.
+
+"Can we go, Mom?" Anna asked.
+
+"Sure, but we have to wait in line," Mom said.
+
+They waited and waited. They were bored. They saw a man with a hat and a wand. He was the magic man. He looked at them and smiled.
+
+"Hello, kids. Do you like magic?" he asked.
+
+"Yes, we do!" Anna and Ben said.
+
+"Would you like to help me with a trick?" he asked.
+
+"Yes, please!" Anna and Ben said.
+
+"Come with me, then. You will be my impressive helpers," he said.
+
+He took them to the tent. He gave them each a wand. He told them to wave it and say a magic word. He said he would make a rabbit appear.
+
+"Ready? One, two, three, wave and say 'Abracadabra'!" he said.
+
+Anna and Ben waved their wands and said "Abracadabra". They heard a pop. They saw a fluffy white rabbit on the table.
+
+"Wow!" Anna and Ben said.
+
+"You did it! You made the rabbit appear! You are very good at magic!" the magic man said.
+
+He gave them a hug and a carrot for the rabbit. He thanked them for their help. He said they could keep the wands.
+
+Anna and Ben were very happy. They had fun with the magic. They showed Mom their wands and the rabbit. Mom was proud of them. She said they were impressive helpers. They said they loved magic.
+Lila and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big tree with many birds. They wanted to see the birds up close.
+
+"Let's climb the tree," Tom said. "Maybe we can find a nest."
+
+"OK," Lila said. "But be careful. The tree is wet from the rain."
+
+They climbed the tree slowly. They saw a nest with three eggs. They were blue and speckled.
+
+"Wow, look at the eggs," Lila said. "They are so pretty."
+
+"Shh, don't make noise," Tom said. "The mama bird might come back."
+
+But it was too late. The mama bird saw them and flew to the nest. She was angry and scared. She squawked and pecked at them.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow," Tom and Lila cried. "The bird is hurting us. Let's quit."
+
+They climbed down the tree as fast as they could. They ran to their mom, who was sitting on a bench.
+
+"Mom, mom, a bird attacked us," Tom said.
+
+"We were looking at her nest and eggs," Lila said.
+
+"Oh, you poor things," mom said. "You should not touch or bother the birds. They are wild animals. They need their space and privacy. How would you feel if someone came to your room and touched your toys?"
+
+Tom and Lila felt sorry. They realized they were wrong.
+
+"We are sorry, mom," they said. "We won't do it again. We will respect the birds and their nests."
+
+Mom hugged them and kissed their wounds. She gave them some cookies and juice.
+
+"That's good, my loves," she said. "Now let's go home and get dry. You are all wet from the tree."
+Tommy did not like gloomy days. He wanted to go out and play with his ball and his bike, but the sky was gray and the rain was wet. He felt sad and bored in his room.
+
+He looked at his bed and saw his sheet. It was blue and had stars on it. He had an idea. He took his sheet and made a tent with it. He used his chair and his table to hold it up. He crawled inside his tent and smiled.
+
+He got his flashlight and his teddy bear. He turned on the flashlight and made shadows on the sheet. He made a dog, a bird, and a bunny. He talked to his teddy bear and told him stories. He had fun in his tent.
+
+He did not hear his mom come in. She saw his tent and smiled. She crawled inside and gave him a hug. She said, "What a cozy tent you made! Do you want a snack?" Tommy nodded and said, "Yes, please. And can you stay with me?" His mom said, "Of course. I love you, Tommy." They ate cookies and milk and read a book. Tommy felt happy and warm.
+
+He did not mind the gloomy day anymore. He had his sheet, his flashlight, his teddy bear, and his mom. He had everything he needed. He said, "This is the best tent ever." His mom said, "And you are the best son ever." They cuddled and kissed. They fell asleep in the tent. The rain stopped and the sun came out.
+Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play soccer in the park. They have a big trophy that they won last year. They keep it in their room and show it to their friends.
+
+One day, Tom and Sam have a fight. Tom says he is better at soccer than Sam. Sam says he is not. They start to kick the ball hard at each other. They forget to watch the trophy.
+
+The ball hits the trophy and knocks it off the shelf. It falls to the floor and breaks. Tom and Sam stop fighting and look at the trophy. They feel sad and sorry.

+
+One day, her brother Max found her diary and wanted to read it. He was curious and bored. He did not ask Lily, he just took it and opened it. He saw Lily's drawings and words. He laughed and made fun of them.
+
+Lily heard him and ran to her room. She was very angry and sad. She shouted at Max: "Give me back my diary! It is mine, not yours! You are mean and bad!"
+
+Max did not listen. He kept teasing Lily. He said: "Look, Lily wrote that she likes Ben from preschool. How silly! Ben is a baby. He still wears diapers. Ha ha ha!"
+
+Lily felt more angry and sad. She saw her toy gun on the floor. She picked it up and pointed it at Max. She said: "Stop it, Max, or I will shoot you!"
+
+Max did not believe her. He said: "Yeah, right. That is a fake gun. It cannot shoot. You are a baby, too. You cannot hurt me."
+
+Lily did not care. She pulled the trigger and a loud bang came out. The toy gun had a cork inside that popped out. The cork hit Max in the nose. He cried out and dropped the diary.
+
+Lily grabbed her diary and hugged it. She said: "See, I told you I would shoot you. Now leave me alone and never touch my diary again!"
+
+Max ran away, holding his nose. He was scared and sorry. He said: "OK, OK, I am sorry, Lily. I will not bother you anymore. Please do not shoot me again!"
+
+Lily felt a little better. She put her diary back under her pillow. She was still angry, but also worried. She hoped Max was not hurt too much. She hoped he would not tell Mom and Dad.

+
+One day, Tom went for a walk with his owner, Sam. It was a cold day and there was snow on the ground. Tom saw a small dog shivering in a corner. The dog had no collar and looked sad and hungry. Tom felt sorry for the dog and wanted to help.

+
+"I don't have a name. I don't have an owner. I don't have a home." The dog said.
+
+"That is very sad. Do you want to be my friend?" Tom said.
+
+"Yes, please. I would like that." The dog said.
+

+
+"Thank you, Tom. You are very kind. This is the best gift I ever had." The dog said.
+
+"You are welcome. I don't need the collar to be happy. I have you as a friend. And maybe Sam will adopt you too." Tom said.
+
+Sam saw what Tom did and was proud of him. He petted both dogs and said, "You are a good dog, Tom. You have a big heart. And you, little dog, you are welcome to join us. I will give you a name and a home."
+
+The two dogs wagged their tails and barked. They were happy and grateful. They learned that sharing and caring are more important than displaying. They became the best friends ever.

+Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hill with a lot of trees and grass. They wanted to climb it and see what was on the other side.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Ben said. "Maybe we can find a treasure or a castle or a dragon!"
+
+"OK, Ben!" Lily said. "But we have to be careful. Mom said not to go too far or get dirty."
+
+They ran up the hill, holding hands. They felt the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. They were happy and excited. They reached the top and looked around.
+
+"Wow!" Ben said. "Look at that!"
+
+He pointed to a big, wet, green place. It had a lot of water and mud and plants and animals. It looked like a different world.
+
+"What is that?" Lily asked.
+
+"I think it's a swamp," Ben said. "I read about it in a book. It's a place where frogs and snakes and bugs live. Do you want to go and see?"
+
+Lily was not sure. She thought the swamp looked scary and dirty. She remembered what Mom said.
+
+"I don't know, Ben," she said. "It looks too far and too messy. Maybe we should go back."
+
+But Ben was curious and persistent. He wanted to see the swamp. He wanted to hear the frogs and touch the plants and find the bugs.
+
+"Come on, Lily," he said. "It will be fun. We can rush and be back before Mom knows. Please, please, please!"
+
+He pulled Lily's hand and ran down the hill. Lily tried to stop him, but he was too fast and strong. She followed him, feeling scared and worried. She hoped they would not get lost or hurt or in trouble.
+Lily and Ben were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two buttons for eyes. They were very happy with their snowman.
+
+But then they saw a black and white bird walking towards them. It was a penguin. The penguin was very nosy. It wanted to see what the children were doing. It waddled closer and closer to the snowman.
+
+"Hello, penguin!" Lily said. "Do you like our snowman?"
+
+The penguin nodded. It liked the snowman very much. It liked the carrot nose and the buttons. It wanted to touch them. It reached out with its flipper and poked the snowman's nose.
+
+"Hey, don't do that!" Ben said. "That's our snowman's nose. You can't take it."
+
+The penguin did not listen. It pulled the carrot out of the snowman's face. It held it in its mouth. It looked very happy.
+
+"Give it back, penguin!" Lily said. "That's not nice. That's not yours."
+
+The penguin did not listen. It ran away with the carrot. It was very fast. The children chased after it. They wanted their snowman's nose back.
+
+They ran and ran until they reached a big hill. The penguin slid down the hill on its belly. It was very fun. The children slid down the hill too. They were very brave.
+
+They caught up with the penguin at the bottom of the hill. The penguin saw them and stopped. It looked at them with its big eyes. It felt sorry. It dropped the carrot on the ground. It made a soft sound.
+
+"I'm sorry, children," the penguin said. "I was very nosy. I just wanted to see your snowman. He was very nice. Can we be friends?"
+
+The children looked at the penguin. They looked at the carrot. They looked at each other. They smiled.
+
+"OK, penguin," Lily said. "We can be friends. But you have to promise not to take our snowman's nose again."
+
+"I promise," the penguin said. "Can I help you fix your snowman?"
+
+"Sure," Ben said. "That would be very nice of you."
+
+The children and the penguin went back to the snowman. They put the carrot back in his face. They gave him a hug. They settled down next to him. They were very happy. They had a new friend.
+Lily liked to play with her dolls in her big room. She had many dolls and clothes and toys. She was a wealthy girl, but she was not happy. She wanted a friend to play with.
+
+One day, a new girl moved in next door. Her name was Anna. She had only one doll and a few clothes and toys. She was not wealthy, but she was happy. She liked to play outside and make new friends.
+
+Lily saw Anna playing in her yard. She wanted to talk to her, but she was shy. She decided to offer her a gift. She picked her favorite doll, the one with the velvet dress and the shiny hair. She put it in a box and wrapped it with a ribbon.
+
+She walked to Anna's door and knocked. Anna opened the door and smiled. "Hi, I'm Anna. Do you want to play with me?" she asked.
+
+Lily held out the box and said, "Hi, I'm Lily. This is for you. It's my favorite doll. I want to be your friend."
+
+Anna looked at the box and then at Lily. She was surprised and touched. She said, "Thank you, Lily. That's very kind of you. But I can't accept your gift. It's too much. You should keep your favorite doll. I have my own doll. She's not as pretty as yours, but I love her very much. She's my friend."
+
+Lily felt sad and confused. She thought Anna would like her gift and her friendship. She said, "But I have many dolls. I don't need them all. I want you to have this one. Please, take it."
+
+Anna shook her head and said, "No, Lily. I don't need many dolls. I need a real friend. A friend who will play with me and share with me and have fun with me. A friend who will like me for who I am, not for what I have. Do you want to be that friend?"
+
+Lily thought for a moment. She realized that Anna was right. She didn't need many dolls. She needed a real friend. She smiled and said, "Yes, Anna. I want to be that friend. I'm sorry for offering you my doll. I was trying to be nice, but I was also trying to impress you. Can we start over?"
+
+Anna smiled back and said, "Of course, Lily. I'm sorry for refusing your gift. I was trying to be honest, but I was also trying to protect myself. Can we be friends?"
+
+Lily nodded and said, "Yes, Anna. We can be friends."
+
+They hugged and then went to play together. They shared their dolls and clothes and toys. They had a lot of fun. They became the best of friends.
+Anna likes to write poems. She writes them on paper with her crayons. She writes about flowers, stars, and her cat. She thinks her poems are powerful. She wants to share them with her friends.
+
+But her friends do not like her poems. They say they are silly and boring. They laugh at her and tear her paper. They tell her to stop writing poems and play with them.
+
+Anna is sad and angry. She refuses to play with them. She says they are mean and rude. She runs away to her room. She takes her crayons and her paper. She writes more poems. She says they are her only friends.
+
+Her mom comes to her room. She sees Anna crying and writing. She asks her what is wrong. She tries to hug her and comfort her. She tells her that her poems are beautiful and that she is proud of her.
+
+But Anna does not listen to her mom. She pushes her away. She refuses to talk to her. She says she does not need her mom. She says she only needs her poems. She says her poems are powerful and they will protect her.
+
+Her mom is worried and sad. She does not know what to do. She leaves Anna alone in her room. She hopes that Anna will calm down and come out soon.
+
+But Anna does not come out. She stays in her room all day and all night. She writes more and more poems. She fills her paper with words. She says her poems are powerful and they will make her happy.
+
+But her poems do not make her happy. They make her lonely and scared. They fill her head with strange and dark thoughts. They make her forget about her mom, her friends, and her cat. They make her forget about herself.
+
+She writes one last poem. She says it is the most powerful poem of all. She says it will make her free. She says goodbye to her poems. She says goodbye to the world.
+
+She tears her paper into pieces. She throws them in the air. She watches them fall like snow. She closes her eyes. She stops breathing.
+Tom and Anna were playing in the park. They liked to swing, slide and run. They saw a huge truck with many boxes. The truck stopped near a big tent.
+
+"What is in the boxes?" Tom asked.
+
+"Let's go and see," Anna said.
+
+They ran to the truck and peeked inside. They saw many toys: dolls, cars, balls and books. They also saw a man with a hat and a clipboard.
+
+"Hello, children," the man said. "Do you like toys?"
+
+"Yes, we do!" Tom and Anna said.
+
+"These toys are for the fair. The fair is a fun place with games, rides and prizes. Do you want to go to the fair?"
+
+"Yes, we do!" Tom and Anna said.
+
+"Then you can help me. You can take some toys and put them in the tent. The tent is where the fair will be. Can you do that?"
+
+"Yes, we can!" Tom and Anna said.
+
+They took some toys and carried them to the tent. They had fun looking at the different toys. They saw a saw that could cut wood, a puzzle that had many pieces, and a robot that could talk.
+
+"Thank you, children," the man said. "You are very helpful. You can keep one toy each as a reward. Which one do you want?"
+
+Tom chose the saw. He liked to make things. Anna chose the robot. She liked to learn new words.
+
+"Thank you, sir," Tom and Anna said.
+
+"You're welcome, children," the man said. "You can come to the fair tomorrow. It will be very fun. The fair will include many toys, games, rides and prizes. You will have a great time."
+
+Tom and Anna smiled. They were happy. They had new toys and a new friend. They could not wait to go to the fair.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play with cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. Some cars are big and some cars are small. Some cars are fast and some cars are slow.
+
+One day, Tom and Mia go to the park with their cars. They find a big hill. They want to see which car can zoom down the hill the fastest. They take turns to put their cars on top of the hill and let them go.
+
+"Look at my red car!" Tom says. "It is very fast and shiny. It can zoom faster than any other car."
+
+"No, look at my yellow car!" Mia says. "It is very bright and pretty. It can zoom faster than your red car."
+
+They put their cars on the hill and let them go. The cars zoom down the hill very fast. They make loud noises. They look like rockets.
+
+But then, something happens. The sun is very hot and bright. It shines on the cars. The cars get very hot. The cars start to melt. The red car and the yellow car become a big puddle of orange.
+
+"Oh no!" Tom and Mia say. "Our cars are gone! They are melted by the sun!"
+
+They are very sad. They cry. They hug each other.
+
+A man sees them. He is very rich. He has a lot of money. He feels sorry for them. He comes to them.
+
+"Hello, little ones," he says. "Why are you crying?"
+
+"Our cars are melted by the sun!" Tom and Mia say.
+
+"That is very sad," the man says. "But don't worry. I have a gift for you. I have a new car for you. It is very big and very fast. It can zoom faster than any other car. And it will not melt by the sun. Do you want it?"
+
+Tom and Mia look at the man. They look at the new car. It is very big and very fast. It is blue and silver. It has four doors and four wheels. It has a horn and a radio. It looks like a dream.
+
+"Yes, please!" Tom and Mia say.
+
+The man smiles. He gives them the keys. He helps them get in the car. He tells them to be careful and have fun.
+
+Tom and Mia are very happy. They thank the man. They start the car. They zoom away. They laugh. They sing. They forget about their melted cars. They have a new car. A big and fast car. A blue and silver car. A car that will not melt by the sun. A car that is a dream.
+Ben and Lily like to play in the park. They like to swing, slide and run. They also like to count the things they see. They count the birds, the flowers and the cars.
+
+One day, they see a big truck with many tires. They want to count the tires, but they are too high. They ask the truck driver if they can climb on the truck. The truck driver says yes, but be careful. The tires are rough and dirty.
+
+Ben and Lily climb on the truck. They touch the tires and feel the rough bumps. They start to count the tires. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. They count ten tires on one side of the truck. They are happy and clap their hands.
+
+They want to count the tires on the other side of the truck, but they are tired. They climb down from the truck and say thank you to the truck driver. They go back to the swing and the slide. They have fun in the park. They like to count, but they also like to rest.
+Ben and Lily went to the park with Mom. They saw a pond with many ducks. Ben and Lily liked the ducks. They wanted to feed them bread.
+
+"Can we feed the ducks, Mom?" Ben asked.
+
+"Sure, but be careful. Some ducks are not nice. They might bite you," Mom said.
+
+Ben and Lily took some bread from Mom and walked to the pond. They saw a big duck with no feathers on its head. It was a bald duck. Ben and Lily thought it was funny.
+
+"Look at that duck, Lily. It has no hair. It is a bald duck," Ben said.
+
+"Ha ha, it is a bald duck. It looks silly," Lily said.
+
+They threw some bread to the bald duck. The bald duck ate the bread. It wanted more. It came closer to Ben and Lily. It opened its mouth. It had sharp teeth.
+
+"More bread, more bread," the bald duck quacked.
+
+Ben and Lily were scared. They had no more bread. They tried to run away. But the bald duck was faster. It caught Ben and Lily. It bit them hard.
+
+"Help, help, Mom!" Ben and Lily cried.
+
+Mom heard them. She ran to the pond. She saw the bald duck. It was a bad duck. It was not a duck at all. It was a goose. A mean goose.
+
+Mom grabbed a stick. She hit the goose. She made it let go of Ben and Lily. She took them in her arms. She hugged them.
+
+"Are you okay, Ben and Lily?" Mom asked.
+
+"No, Mom. The bald duck hurt us. It was a bad duck. It was a goose," Ben and Lily said.
+
+Mom looked at their wounds. They were bleeding. They needed a doctor.
+
+"Come on, Ben and Lily. We have to go to the hospital. The goose gave you a bad bite. You need a bandage and a shot," Mom said.
+
+Ben and Lily did not like the hospital. They did not like the bandage and the shot. They cried a lot. They wished they never fed the bald duck. They learned a lesson. They never went near the pond again. The end.
+Sara likes to play with her toy plane. She makes it soar in the air and makes zoom sounds. She pretends it is flying to faraway places. She likes to imagine what she would see there.
+
+One day, she finds a match in a drawer. She does not know what it is, but it looks like a stick with a red head. She thinks it might be a toy too. She takes it to her plane and tries to make it fit. She rubs the red head on the plane's wing.
+
+Suddenly, there is a spark and a flame. Sara is scared and drops the match. It falls on the carpet and makes a small fire. Sara screams and runs to her mom. Her mom sees the smoke and runs to Sara's room. She grabs a blanket and puts out the fire.
+
+Sara is crying and hugs her mom. Her mom is angry and scared, but also glad that Sara is not hurt. She explains to Sara that matches are not toys, and they are very dangerous. She tells Sara to never touch them again. She checks the carpet and the plane. They are burned, but only a little. The fire was mild, but it could have been worse.
+
+Sara is sorry and says she did not know. She says she only wanted to play with her plane. Her mom understands and hugs her. She says she loves her and she is proud of her for telling the truth. She says they will get a new plane and a new carpet. She says they will also learn about fire safety and how to be careful. Sara nods and says she loves her mom too. She says she will never play with matches again. She says she will only make her plane soar with her hands and her imagination.
+Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play together. Today, they are in the park. They see a big hill. They want to go up the hill.
+
+"Let's make a team!" Lily says. "We can help each other."
+
+"OK!" Ben says. "How do we go up the hill?"
+
+Lily thinks. She sees some rocks and grass on the hill. She has an idea.
+
+"Let's crawl!" she says. "We can use our hands and feet. We can hold on to the rocks and grass."
+
+"OK!" Ben says. "That sounds fun!"
+
+They start to crawl up the hill. They are careful not to slip or fall. They cheer each other on.
+
+"You can do it, Lily!" Ben says.
+
+"You too, Ben!" Lily says.
+
+They crawl and crawl. They get closer to the top. They see something shiny and pink.
+
+"What is that?" Lily says.
+
+"Let's find out!" Ben says.
+
+They crawl faster. They reach the top. They see a big balloon. It is pink and shiny. It has a string.
+
+"Wow!" Lily says. "A balloon!"
+
+"Wow!" Ben says. "It is so pretty!"
+
+They grab the string. They hold the balloon. They are happy.
+
+"We did it!" Lily says. "We are a great team!"
+
+"We did it!" Ben says. "We are a great team!"
+
+They hug each other. They smile. They look at the balloon. They look at the park. They see their moms.
+
+"Look, mom!" Lily says. "We found a balloon!"
+
+"Look, mom!" Ben says. "We found a balloon!"
+
+Their moms see them. They are proud. They clap their hands.
+
+"Good job, Lily and Ben!" their moms say. "You are a great team!"
+
+Lily and Ben wave their balloon. They are happy. They are a great team.
+Ben and Lily are playing with their toys in the bathroom. They like to make bubbles and splash in the sink. They have a lot of fun with their boats and ducks and cups.
+
+"Look, Lily, I can number the ducks!" Ben says. He points to each duck and says a number. "One, two, three, four, five!"
+
+"Wow, Ben, you are very good at numbering!" Lily says. She claps her hands and smiles. "Can I try too?"
+
+"Sure, Lily, you can try!" Ben says. He moves the ducks to the other side of the sink. "Here you go, Lily, number the ducks!"
+
+Lily looks at the ducks and tries to remember the numbers. She points to each duck and says a number. "One, two, four, six, seven!"
+
+Ben laughs and shakes his head. "No, Lily, that's not right! You skipped three and five! And there is no seven!"
+
+Lily frowns and feels sad. She doesn't like to be wrong. She wants to be good at numbering too.
+
+"Sorry, Ben, I don't know all the numbers," she says. "Can you help me?"
+
+Ben hugs Lily and says, "It's okay, Lily, you don't have to be sorry. Numbering is hard. I can help you. We can learn together. You are my nice sister and I love you."
+
+Lily hugs Ben back and says, "Thank you, Ben, you are my nice brother and I love you too."
+
+They smile and kiss and play with the ducks again. They are happy and they have fun. They like to number and splash in the sink.
+Lily and Ben are best friends. They like to play in the park every day. They have a lot of fun on the swings, the slide and the sandbox.
+
+One day, Lily wears a new vest. It is pink and fluffy and has a big heart on it. She loves her vest. She shows it to Ben and he says it is very pretty.
+
+They play on the swings for a long time. Then they go to the slide. Lily goes first and slides down fast. She laughs and runs back to the top. Ben follows her and slides down too. He smiles and runs after her.
+
+But when they get to the top, Lily sees something on the ground. It is her vest. She forgot to wear it when she slid down. She feels sad. She picks up her vest and hugs it.
+
+"Ben, I forgot my vest. I'm sorry. I like my vest. It is warm and soft and has a big heart on it." She says.
+
+Ben looks at her and says, "It's okay, Lily. Don't be sad. I like your vest too. It is very pretty. And you have a big heart too. You are my best friend."
+
+He gives her a hug and says, "Let's go to the sandbox. We can make a castle with your vest. It will be fun."
+
+Lily smiles and says, "Okay, Ben. Let's go. You are my best friend too."
+
+They hold hands and run to the sandbox. They make a big castle with Lily's vest. They have a lot of fun. They don't forget their vests again.
+Lily and Ben are playing in the snow. They make a big snowman with a hat, a carrot nose and a scarf. The scarf is red and soft. Lily likes the scarf.
+
+"Can I taste the scarf?" Lily asks Ben.
+
+"No, you can't taste the scarf. It is not food. It is for the snowman. He is cold," Ben says.
+
+"But I want to taste the scarf. It looks yummy. Maybe it is sweet like candy," Lily says.
+
+She pulls the scarf from the snowman and puts it in her mouth. She bites it hard.
+
+"Yuck! The scarf is not yummy. It is yucky. It is wet and hairy. It makes me cough," Lily says.
+
+She spits out the scarf and makes a face. Ben laughs.
+
+"I told you, you can't taste the scarf. It is not food. It is for the snowman. He is cold," Ben says.
+
+He puts the scarf back on the snowman and gives him a hug.
+
+"Sorry, snowman. Here is your scarf. You are great. You are our friend," Ben says.
+
+Lily and Ben smile. They play with the snowman some more. They have fun in the snow.
+Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the park. They run, slide, swing and laugh. They have fun.
+
+One day, they see something new in the park. It is big and white and hard. It has holes for eyes and nose and teeth. It looks like a head, but not a real head. It is a skull.
+
+"Wow, what is that?" Tom asks.
+
+"I don't know. It is incredible!" Mia says.
+
+They go closer to the skull. They touch it and look at it. They wonder where it came from and who it belonged to.
+
+"Maybe it was a dinosaur," Tom says.
+
+"Maybe it was a pirate," Mia says.
+
+They make up stories about the skull. They pretend to be dinosaurs and pirates. They have more fun.
+
+But then, they hear a loud roar. They turn around and see a big truck. It has a sign that says "Museum". It has a man who says "Sorry, kids. This skull is mine. I have to take it to the museum. It is very old and rare."
+
+Tom and Mia are sad. They like the skull. They want to keep playing with it.
+
+"Please, can we have it?" Tom asks.
+
+"No, you can't. It is not a toy. It is a fossil. It is very important and valuable," the man says.
+
+He puts the skull in the truck and drives away.
+
+Tom and Mia watch the truck go. They are disappointed. They miss the skull.
+
+But then, they smile. They still have each other. They still have the park. They still have fun.
+
+They run, slide, swing and laugh. They have fun.
+Ben and Lily were friends who liked to play outside at night. They liked to look at the stars and make wishes. One night, they saw a big, bright star that sparkled more than the others.
+
+"Wow, look at that star!" Lily said. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"I wish I could touch it," Ben said. "Do you think it is hot or cold?"
+
+"I don't know," Lily said. "But I know it is very far away. You can't touch it, silly."
+
+Ben felt a little angry. He wanted to show Lily that he was brave and strong. He had an idea.
+
+"I dare you to climb that tree and try to reach the star," he said. "If you do it, I will give you my candy."
+
+Lily looked at the tree. It was tall and dark. She felt a little scared. She did not like to climb trees. But she also did not like to lose a dare. And she liked candy.
+
+"OK, I will do it," she said. "But you have to watch me and cheer for me."
+
+Ben nodded. He watched as Lily walked to the tree and started to climb. She went up slowly and carefully. She looked at the star and tried to stretch her hand. But the star was still too far away. She could not touch it.
+
+"Come on, Lily, you can do it!" Ben shouted. "You are almost there!"
+
+Lily heard Ben and smiled. She felt happy that he was her friend. She did not care about the star anymore. She just wanted to have fun. She decided to do something funny. She made a funny face and said in a funny voice:
+
+"Hello, star, I am Lily. Do you want to be my friend?"
+
+Ben laughed. He thought Lily was very funny. He forgot about the dare and the candy. He just wanted to play with Lily. He climbed the tree and joined her. They both looked at the star and made funny faces and voices. They had a lot of fun. They did not notice that the star was smiling too. It was happy that Ben and Lily were friends. It made their wishes come true.
+Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play with their dog, Max. Max is big and furry and has a blue leash. Mom and Dad say they have to hold the leash when they go outside.
+
+One day, Tom and Lily take Max to the park. They see a lot of other dogs and kids. They want to play with them. They let go of the leash. Max runs away.
+
+"Max, come back!" Tom and Lily shout. But Max does not hear them. He is too busy chasing a ball.
+
+Tom and Lily are scared. They do not want to lose Max. They look for him everywhere. They ask the other kids and dogs. But no one has seen Max.
+
+They start to cry. They miss Max. They wish they did not let go of the leash.
+
+Then they hear a bark. They turn around and see Max. He has the ball in his mouth. He is happy. He runs to Tom and Lily. He licks their faces.
+
+"Max, we are so glad you are here!" Tom and Lily say. They hug Max. They put the leash back on him.
+
+They say sorry to Mom and Dad. They promise to never let go of the leash again. They love Max. Max loves them. They are a happy family.
+Tom and Sam were best friends. They liked to play with trucks and cars in the sand. One day, they saw a big crane at the construction site. They wanted to see it up close.
+
+"Let's go there!" Tom said.
+
+"No, we can't. It's not safe. Mom said so." Sam said.
+
+Tom was stubborn. He did not listen to Sam. He ran to the crane. Sam followed him. He did not want Tom to get hurt.
+
+They reached the crane. It was very tall and shiny. Tom climbed on it. He wanted to make it move. He pushed some buttons. The crane started to swing.
+
+"Wow, this is fun!" Tom said.
+
+"Tom, stop! It's dangerous!" Sam said.
+
+But Tom did not stop. He pushed more buttons. The crane swung faster and faster. It hit a pile of bricks. The bricks fell down. They made a loud noise.
+
+The workers heard the noise. They saw Tom and Sam on the crane. They were angry. They ran to them. They took them down. They scolded them.
+
+"You are very naughty! You could have hurt yourself and others! You have to pay for the damage you did!" one worker said.
+
+Tom and Sam were scared. They cried. They said they were sorry. They wished they had listened to Sam.
+
+The worker called their moms. Their moms came. They were also angry and sad. They paid the worker some money. They took Tom and Sam home. They punished them. They made them stay in their rooms. They made them think about what they did.
+
+Tom and Sam learned a lesson. They learned to obey their moms. They learned to be careful. They learned to respect other people's things. They learned that being stubborn can cause trouble. They decided to be good friends and good boys.
+Lily and Sam are friends. They like to play with cars and dolls. One day, they find a big box in the park. They think it is a good place to play.
+
+They go inside the box and pretend it is a house. They have fun and make noise. They do not hear the cop outside. The cop is deaf. He can not hear them either.
+
+The cop sees the box and thinks it is trash. He wants to move it to the truck. He does not know Lily and Sam are inside. He lifts the box and puts it on the truck.
+
+Lily and Sam are scared. They feel the box move. They scream and bang on the box. They need help. They hope someone will hear them.
+
+A lady walks by and sees the truck. She hears the noise from the box. She thinks it is strange. She goes to the cop and taps his shoulder. She points to the box and signs with her hands. She tells him there are kids inside.
+
+The cop is surprised. He stops the truck and opens the box. He sees Lily and Sam. They are happy to see him. They hug him and say thank you. He smiles and signs sorry. He helps them out of the box and takes them to the lady. She calls their parents and tells them what happened.
+
+Lily and Sam are safe. They learn a lesson. They do not play in boxes anymore. They also learn a new word. They learn how to say cop in sign language. They think the cop is cool. They wave to him and sign cop. He waves back and signs friends.
+Ben and Lily liked to look at the stars at night. They had a big book with pictures of stars and planets. They learned the names of some stars, like the sun, the moon, and the big dipper.
+
+One night, they saw a bright star in the sky. It was very shiny and sparkly. They wondered what it was.
+
+"Maybe it is a new star," Ben said.
+
+"Maybe it is a wish star," Lily said. "I want to make a wish."
+
+They closed their eyes and wished for something. Ben wished for a new bike. Lily wished for a puppy.
+
+But the star was not a wish star. It was a serious star. It was a star that was suffering. It was a star that was about to explode.
+
+The star made a loud boom and a flash of light. It broke into many pieces. Some of the pieces fell to the earth like fire.
+
+Ben and Lily opened their eyes and saw the star fall. They were scared and sad.
+
+"Why did the star do that?" Ben asked.
+
+"I don't know," Lily said. "Maybe it was too old. Maybe it was too hot. Maybe it was unhappy."
+
+They hugged each other and ran to their mom. She told them that the star was a comet. A comet is a ball of ice and dust that travels around the sun. Sometimes it comes close to the earth and makes a show.
+
+She said that the comet was not suffering. It was just doing what comets do. She said that the comet was not serious. It was just beautiful and amazing.
+
+She said that their wishes were not wasted. They were still in their hearts. And maybe, someday, they would come true.
+Anna and Ben were playing in the forest. They liked to find new things and make up stories. They saw a big log on the ground. It had many holes and marks on it.
+
+"Look, Ben, this log is unique. It has a face and a tail. Maybe it is a dragon log," Anna said.
+
+"Wow, Anna, you are right. It is a dragon log. Let's pretend we are dragon riders and go on an adventure," Ben said.
+
+They climbed on the log and made dragon noises. They had fun and forgot about the time.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud roar. It was not them. It was a real bear. The bear was angry and hungry. It saw the log and thought it was food.
+
+"Run, Anna, run! It is a bear! It wants to eat us and the log!" Ben shouted.
+
+Anna and Ben jumped off the log and ran as fast as they could. They were scared and panicked. They did not know where to go.
+
+"Help, help! Where is Mommy? Where is Daddy?" Anna cried.
+
+"Follow me, Anna, follow me! I see a house. Maybe someone can help us," Ben said.
+
+They ran towards the house and knocked on the door. A kind lady opened the door and saw them.
+
+"Hello, children, what are you doing here? You look frightened and dirty. What happened?" the lady asked.
+
+"A bear, a bear! It chased us and wanted to eat us and the log. The log was a dragon log. We were playing with it. Please help us," Anna and Ben said.
+
+The lady hugged them and calmed them down. She gave them some cookies and milk and called their parents. She told them not to worry and that the bear was gone.
+
+Anna and Ben felt better and thanked the lady. They learned a lesson. They should not play too far from home and they should be careful of wild animals. They also learned that the log was not a dragon log, but a unique log. They still liked it, but they did not want to see the bear again.
+Lila and Tom are at the beach with Mom and Dad. They like to play in the sand and splash in the water. They see many things at the beach: shells, crabs, birds, boats.
+
+Lila finds a big shell with pretty colors. She shows it to Tom and says, "Look, Tom, a shell! It is so nice!"
+
+Tom nods and says, "Yes, Lila, it is nice. Can I hold it?"
+
+Lila gives the shell to Tom and he holds it to his ear. He hears a sound like the sea. He smiles and says, "I hear the sea, Lila! Do you hear it too?"
+
+Lila takes the shell back and puts it to her ear. She hears the sound too and says, "Yes, Tom, I hear it too! It is like a song!"
+
+They stare at the shell and listen to the sound. They are happy and curious.
+
+Mom and Dad watch them and smile. They say, "Lila and Tom, you found a beautiful shell! Do you want to keep it?"
+
+Lila and Tom say, "Yes, please! We want to keep it!"
+
+Mom and Dad say, "Okay, but first we have to wash it. The shell is dirty from the sand and the water. We have to make it clean."
+
+They take Lila and Tom to the water and help them wash the shell. They rub it gently and rinse it with the water. They see the tide go in and out. The tide brings more water and takes away some water. They say, "The tide is the sea's breath. It breathes in and out."
+
+Lila and Tom watch the tide and say, "Wow, the sea breathes! That is amazing!"
+
+They finish washing the shell and dry it with a towel. The shell is clean and shiny. They say, "Thank you, Mom and Dad, for helping us wash the shell. It is so pretty!"
+
+Mom and Dad say, "You're welcome, Lila and Tom. We are glad you like the shell. It is a special gift from the sea. You can take it home and remember this day at the beach."
+
+Lila and Tom hug Mom and Dad and say, "We love you, Mom and Dad. We love the sea. We love the shell."
+
+They put the shell in their bag and go back to the sand. They play some more and have fun. They are happy and grateful.
+Sara and Ben like to play games. They have many games in their room. They have puzzles, cards, blocks, and dolls. Sometimes they play together, and sometimes they play alone.
+
+One day, Sara and Ben decide to play a puzzle game. The puzzle game has many pieces. They have to make a picture with the pieces. The picture is of a farm with animals and a tractor. Sara and Ben think the puzzle game is fun, but also difficult.
+
+They work hard on the puzzle game. They find the pieces that match. They make the edges first, then the middle. They talk and laugh as they play. They are almost done with the puzzle game. They only need a few more pieces.
+
+But then, their mom calls them. She says it is time to leave. They have to go to the store with her. Sara and Ben are sad. They do not want to leave. They want to finish the puzzle game. They want to see the picture. They want to get the prize.
+
+The prize is a sticker. The sticker is in the box of the puzzle game. The sticker is shiny and colorful. It has a star and a smiley face. Sara and Ben love stickers. They want to put the sticker on their book or their shirt.
+
+They ask their mom if they can stay a little longer. They say they are almost done. They say they want the prize. But their mom says no. She says they have to leave now. She says they can finish the puzzle game later. She says they can get the prize then.
+
+Sara and Ben are not happy. They do not like to leave. They do not like to wait. They do not like to stop playing. But they listen to their mom. They put the puzzle game away. They put the box with the prize on the shelf. They say goodbye to the puzzle game. They say they will come back soon. They follow their mom to the car. They hope the store is not too long. They hope the puzzle game and the prize are still there when they come back. They hope they can play again.
+Tom and Lily were playing in the backyard. They had a cooler with some juice and snacks inside. They liked to pretend they were on a picnic.
+
+But then, Tom saw a hole in the cooler. The juice was leaking out. He was sad and angry.
+
+"Look, Lily! The cooler is broken! Who did this?" he shouted.
+
+Lily came over and looked at the hole. She felt sorry for Tom.
+
+"I don't know, Tom. Maybe a squirrel or a bird. Don't be mad. We can repair it," she said.
+
+She ran inside the house and came back with some tape and scissors. She cut a piece of tape and put it over the hole. She pressed it hard.
+
+"There, Tom. The cooler is fixed. Now the juice won't leak out. The cooler is important for our picnic," she said.
+
+Tom smiled and hugged Lily. He was happy and grateful.
+
+"Thank you, Lily. You are a good sister. You are good at repairing things. The tape is strong. The cooler is good as new," he said.
+
+They opened the cooler and took out some juice and snacks. They enjoyed their picnic in the backyard. They shared and laughed. They had fun.
+Anna and Ben were playing with magnets in the living room. They liked to stick them on the fridge and make shapes and letters. Anna had a fancy magnet that looked like a flower. It was pink and shiny and had glitter on it. Ben wanted to play with it, but Anna said no.
+
+"Please, Anna, let me have the flower magnet. It is so pretty. I will give it back to you," Ben said.
+
+"No, Ben, it is mine. You have many other magnets. Go away," Anna said.
+
+Ben was angry and sad. He did not like how Anna was mean to him. He wanted to make her sorry. He saw a big magnet that looked like a star. It was heavy and hard. He picked it up and threw it at Anna.
+
+"Ow!" Anna cried. The star magnet hit her on the head. It hurt a lot. She started to bleed. She dropped the flower magnet and ran to Mommy.
+
+Mommy saw Anna and Ben and the magnets. She was very mad and scared. She took Anna to the doctor and Ben to his room. She said they could not play with magnets anymore. She threw them all in the trash. Anna and Ben were both sorry, but it was too late. They had no more magnets and no more fun.
+Lily and Ben were playing hide and seek in the park. Lily was the seeker and Ben was the hider. Lily counted to ten and then opened her eyes. She looked around for Ben, but she could not see him. She heard a giggle from behind a big tree. She ran to the tree and peeked behind it. There was Ben, hiding behind the tree. But he forgot to hide his ear, and Lily saw it sticking out.
+
+"Found you!" Lily shouted. "Your ear gave you away!"
+
+Ben came out from behind the tree. He looked at his ear and frowned. "Oh no, my ear is too big!" he said.
+
+Lily smiled and hugged him. "No, your ear is not too big. Your ear is just right. I like your ear. It reminds me of a bunny. Bunnies are cute and soft and fun. Do you like bunnies?"
+
+Ben nodded and smiled. "Yes, I like bunnies. And I like you. You are my best friend. Do you want to play again?"
+
+Lily nodded and smiled. "Yes, I want to play again. But this time, you are the seeker and I am the hider. And I will hide my ear better than you!"
+
+They laughed and ran to a new spot. They played hide and seek until it was time to go home. They had a lot of fun and they were happy. They loved playing with each other. They were best friends.
+Lily was a little girl who liked to learn new things. She liked to read books, play with puzzles, and draw pictures. One day, she saw a big box in the living room. She wondered what was inside. She asked her mom, "Mom, what is in the box?"
+
+Her mom said, "It is a surprise for you, Lily. But you have to wait until your birthday to open it. It is very heavy, so don't touch it."
+
+Lily was curious, but she listened to her mom. She waited and waited for her birthday. She tried to guess what was in the box. Maybe it was a new bike, or a dollhouse, or a telescope.
+
+On her birthday, Lily was very excited. She ran to the living room and saw the box with a big bow on it. She said, "Mom, can I open it now?"
+
+Her mom said, "Yes, you can, Lily. Happy birthday!"
+
+Lily tore off the paper and opened the box. She was in shock. Inside the box was a big, fluffy, white dog. It wagged its tail and licked her face. Lily screamed with joy. She hugged the dog and said, "Thank you, mom! Thank you, thank you, thank you! What is his name?"
+
+Her mom said, "His name is Snowy. He is your new friend. He will teach you how to take care of him, and you will teach him how to behave. You will learn a lot from each other."
+
+Lily smiled and said, "I love you, Snowy. You are the best surprise ever. Come on, let's go play!"
+Lily and Ben were playing in the garden. They liked to dig in the dirt and look for shiny things. One day, they found a big crystal that sparkled in the sun. It was clear and smooth and had many colors inside.
+
+"Wow, look at this!" Lily said. "It is so pretty!"
+
+"Let me see!" Ben said. He took the crystal from Lily and held it in his hands. He turned it around and saw the colors change.
+
+"It is like a rainbow!" he said.
+
+They decided to show the crystal to their mom. They ran inside the house and looked for her. They found her in the kitchen, making cookies.
+
+"Mom, mom, look what we found!" they shouted.
+
+Mom smiled and looked at the crystal. She was surprised and impressed.
+
+"That is a beautiful crystal!" she said. "Where did you find it?"
+
+"In the garden!" Lily said. "We dug it out of the dirt!"
+
+"That is amazing!" Mom said. "You are very lucky to find such a treasure!"
+
+She hugged them and gave them each a cookie. The cookies were warm and tasty. They had chocolate chips and nuts.
+
+"Thank you, mom!" they said.
+
+"You are welcome, my sweeties!" she said. "Now, why don't you put the crystal on the windowsill, so it can catch the light?"
+
+They did as she said. They put the crystal on the windowsill and watched it shine. They ate their cookies and felt happy. They had found a special thing and shared it with their mom. They loved their mom and their mom loved them.
+Anna and Ben like to go to the park with Mom. They play on the swings, the slide and the sandbox. They have fun with their friends and their toys.
+
+One day, they see a big sign at the park. It says: "Buy a rainbow today! Only one coin!" Anna and Ben are curious. They love rainbows. They ask Mom what it means.
+
+Mom smiles and says: "It is a game. You can buy a rainbow with a coin and make a wish. Do you want to try?"
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They each have a coin in their pocket. They run to the sign and see a man with a thin pipe. He blows into the pipe and makes bubbles. The bubbles are shiny and have many colors. They look like rainbows.
+
+Anna and Ben give their coins to the man. He says: "Thank you. Now you can make a wish. What do you wish for?"
+
+Anna thinks for a moment. She wishes for a new doll. She blows a bubble and watches it fly away.
+
+Ben thinks for a moment. He wishes for a new bike. He blows a bubble and watches it fly away.
+
+They hope their wishes will come true. They thank the man and go back to Mom. They tell her about their wishes and their rainbows.
+
+Mom hugs them and says: "That was a nice game. Maybe your wishes will come true. But you know what? You already have something very precious. You have each other. And you have me. And I love you very much."
+
+Anna and Ben smile and hug Mom. They agree. They have each other. And they have Mom. And they love her very much. They are happy.
+Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play outside. One day, they saw a big hill near their house. They wanted to climb it and see what was on the other side.
+
+"Let's go, Lily!" Tom said. "Maybe we will discover something new!"
+
+"Okay, Tom!" Lily said. "But be careful, the hill is steep and rocky."
+
+They held hands and started to walk up the hill. They took small steps and looked around. They saw birds, flowers, and bugs. They were happy and curious.
+
+But Tom was too eager and clumsy. He did not watch where he was going. He stepped on a loose stone and slipped. He fell down and hurt his knee. He cried out loud.
+
+"Tom, are you okay?" Lily asked. She ran to him and hugged him. She saw blood on his knee and felt scared.
+
+"I'm sorry, Lily," Tom said. "I was not careful. I wanted to discover something new, but I only discovered pain."
+
+Lily helped Tom stand up and walk down the hill. She found a cloth and wrapped it around his knee. She said, "It's okay, Tom. I'm sorry you got hurt. But you know what? You did discover something new. You discovered that you have a brave and kind sister who loves you."
+
+Tom smiled and said, "You're right, Lily. You are the best sister ever. And I love you too. Thank you for helping me."
+
+They hugged and went back to their house. They learned that being careful and loving are more important than being curious and clumsy.
+Tommy loves to zoom around the park on his bike. He likes to go fast and feel the wind on his face. He also likes to make loud noises with his mouth, like a car or a plane. He thinks he is very brave and strong.
+
+One day, he sees a man playing a trumpet near the fountain. The man makes beautiful music with the trumpet. It sounds like singing, but with no words. Tommy is curious and stops his bike. He wants to try the trumpet too.
+
+He asks the man if he can play the trumpet. The man smiles and says yes. He helps Tommy hold the trumpet and shows him how to blow. Tommy tries to blow, but he only makes a funny sound. He tries again, but he still can't make music. He feels sad and frustrated.
+
+The man tells Tommy not to give up. He says that playing the trumpet is hard and takes practice. He says that Tommy can do anything if he works hard and has fun. He says that Tommy is brave and strong, just like his bike.
+
+Tommy feels happy and hopeful. He thanks the man and gives him a hug. He decides to keep trying the trumpet, but also to keep zooming on his bike. He likes both things, and he likes to learn new things. He zooms away, making loud noises with his mouth and his bike. He feels the wind on his face and the music in his heart.
+Sam and Mia were playing with their toys in the living room. Sam had a red cap that he liked very much. He put it on his head and pretended to be a fireman. Mia had a fake necklace that she found in her mom's drawer. She put it on her neck and pretended to be a princess.
+
+"Look at me, Sam, I'm a princess!" Mia said. "I have a shiny necklace and a pretty dress."
+
+"Look at me, Mia, I'm a fireman!" Sam said. "I have a red cap and a big hose."
+
+They were having fun and making noises. But their mom was in the kitchen, trying to cook dinner. She did not like the noises. They disturbed her.
+
+"Sam, Mia, please be quiet!" their mom said. "You are disturbing me. I need to cook dinner and you are making too much noise."
+
+Sam and Mia did not listen. They kept playing and making noises. Their mom got angry. She came to the living room and took away their toys.
+
+"Mom, no!" Sam and Mia cried. "Give us back our toys! We want to play!"
+
+"No, you cannot play with these toys now," their mom said. "You were disturbing me and not being nice. You can have your toys back after dinner, if you behave. Now go to your room and wait for dinner."
+
+Sam and Mia were sad and mad. They did not want to go to their room. They wanted to play with their toys. But they had no choice. They went to their room and waited for dinner. They learned that they should not disturb their mom when she is cooking.
+Lily liked to watch cartoons on TV. She liked the funny animals and the songs they sang. She had a favorite cartoon about a bunny and a duck. They were always playing and having fun.
+
+One day, Lily's mom said, "Lily, I have a surprise for you. Do you want to see it?" Lily nodded and smiled. She loved surprises. She followed her mom to the car. They drove for a while and then stopped at a big building.
+
+"Where are we, mom?" Lily asked.
+
+"We are at the theater, Lily. We are going to watch your favorite cartoon on a big screen!" her mom said.
+
+Lily gasped. She was so happy. She had never seen a theater before. She saw a big poster with the bunny and the duck on it. She clapped her hands and jumped up and down.
+
+"Wow, mom, thank you! This is the best surprise ever!" she said.
+
+They went inside and found their seats. Lily saw many other kids and parents. They were all excited too. The lights went dim and the screen lit up. The cartoon started with a loud music.

+
+"Tom, no!" Anna shouts. She runs to the box. But Tom is faster. He grabs the box and opens it. He puts a big piece of chocolate in his mouth. He smiles.
+
+"Tom, stop!" Ben cries. He runs to Tom. He tries to take the box from him. But Tom is strong. He holds the box tight. He puts another piece of chocolate in his mouth. He laughs.
+
+Anna and Ben are sad. They want to save their chocolate. They think of a plan. They see their toy car on the floor. They have an idea.
+
+"Tom, look!" Anna says. She points to the toy car. "Do you want to play with the car? It is amazing. It can go fast and make noise."
+
+Tom likes cars. He looks at the toy car. He forgets about the chocolate. He drops the box and crawls to the car. He picks it up and makes vroom-vroom sounds.
+
+Anna and Ben are happy. They pick up the box of chocolate. They count the pieces. There are still many left. They hug each other.
+
+"Tom, thank you!" Ben says. He gives Tom a small piece of chocolate. "You can have this. But please, do not eat our chocolate again. It is ours."
+
+Tom nods. He eats the small piece of chocolate. He likes it. He plays with the car. He is happy too.
+

+Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play with trains. They have a big station with many tracks and trains. They make the trains go fast and slow. They make the trains stop and go.
+
+One day, Tom has a new train. It is red and shiny. It is bigger than the other trains. Tom is very happy. He wants to show Sue his new train. He puts it on the track and makes it go.
+
+But the new train is too big. It does not fit on the track. It bumps into the other trains. It makes them fall off the track. It breaks the station. Tom and Sue are sad. They cry.
+
+Tom's mom hears them cry. She comes to see what is wrong. She sees the mess. She sees the broken station and the trains. She is angry. She tells Tom he is naughty.

+
+Tom is very sad. He says he is sorry. He says he did not mean to break the station and the trains. He says he likes to play with Sue. He says he will share his trains with her. But his mom does not listen. She takes his new train away. She puts it in a box. She says he can not have it back.
+
+Tom cries. He does not want to lose his new train. He does not want to make Sue sad. He does not want to be naughty. He wants to be good. He wants to have fun. But he can not. He has no new train. He has no station. He has no friend. He has a bad day.
+Tom is a cat who likes to play with his ball. He rolls it, chases it, and catches it with his paws. One day, he sees a big dog outside his window. The dog barks and growls at Tom. Tom is scared and runs away from the window. He drops his ball and it rolls out of the door.
+
+Tom wants his ball back, but he is afraid of the dog. He hides under the bed and waits. He hears the dog come closer and closer. He hopes the dog will go away. But the dog does not go away. The dog finds Tom's ball and picks it up with his mouth. He shakes it and tosses it in the air. He thinks it is his toy now.
+
+Tom is sad and angry. He wants his ball back, but he does not know how to get it. He thinks the dog is mean and bad. He wishes he had a friend to help him. He hears a knock on the door. He wonders who it is. He peeks out from under the bed and sees a girl. The girl is his neighbor. She likes Tom and often gives him treats. She sees the dog and the ball. She knows the ball is Tom's.
+
+She says to the dog, "Hey, that is not your ball. That is Tom's ball. Give it back, please." The dog looks at the girl and wags his tail. He likes the girl and wants to be friendly. He drops the ball and licks the girl's hand. The girl picks up the ball and smiles. She says to the dog, "You are a good dog, but you have to share. Here, you can have this bone instead." She gives the dog a bone from her pocket. The dog is happy and takes the bone. He thanks the girl with a bark and runs away.
+
+The girl goes to Tom and gives him his ball. She says to Tom, "Here you go, Tom. I got your ball back. Are you okay?" Tom is happy and relieved. He thanks the girl with a purr and rubs his head against her leg. He says to the girl, "You are a kind girl. You are my friend. I like you." The girl hugs Tom and says, "You are welcome, Tom. You are a brave cat. I like you too." They play with the ball together and have fun.
+Tom and Lily are playing in the park. They like to build things with stones and sticks. They find a big stone that looks like a chair. Tom says, "I am the king and this is my throne. You are my servant and you have to do what I order."
+
+Lily does not like this game. She says, "No, you are not the king. You are my brother and we have to share. I want to sit on the stone too. It is not fair."
+
+Tom does not want to share. He says, "No, you cannot sit on the stone. It is mine. Go away and find your own stone. And bring me some water and some cookies. That is your order."
+
+Lily is angry and sad. She says, "You are mean and bossy. I do not want to play with you. I will find a better stone and a better friend." She walks away and looks for another stone.
+
+She sees a small stone that is shiny and smooth. She picks it up and smiles. She says, "This is a beautiful stone. It is my treasure. I will keep it and show it to Mommy. She will be proud of me." She puts the stone in her pocket and runs to find Mommy.
+Lily and Max liked to pretend they were farmers. They had a big barn in their backyard, where they kept their toy animals. They had cows, horses, sheep, pigs, and chickens. Every day, they would feed them, brush them, and play with them.
+
+One day, they found a new animal in the barn. It was small, gray, and furry. It had a long tail and big ears. It was a mouse. Lily and Max were curious. They wanted to touch it and see if it was smooth or rough.
+
+"Hello, mouse," Lily said softly. "Can we be your friends?"
+
+The mouse looked at Lily and Max with its bright eyes. It did not run away. It squeaked and came closer. Lily and Max smiled. They reached out their hands and gently stroked the mouse. It was very smooth and warm.
+
+"You are so cute, mouse," Max said. "Do you want to stay with us?"
+
+The mouse nodded and snuggled in their hands. Lily and Max were happy. They had a new friend in the barn. They decided to name him Micky. They gave him some cheese and water. They made him a cozy bed out of hay. They played with him and their other animals. They pretended they were farmers and Micky was their pet. They had a lot of fun in the barn.
+Lily and Max are friends. They like to play with puzzles. They have many puzzles with animals, cars, and flowers. One day, they find a new puzzle in the toy box. It is a big puzzle with a purple dragon.
+
+"Wow, look at this puzzle!" Lily says. "It has a purple dragon. I like purple."
+
+"Me too," Max says. "Let's make the puzzle together."
+
+They take out the puzzle pieces and try to fit them on the floor. They find the corners and the edges first. Then they look for the pieces with the dragon's head, tail, wings, and scales. The puzzle is hard, but they work well together.
+
+They are almost done, but they cannot find the last piece. It is the piece with the dragon's eye. They look in the toy box, under the sofa, behind the curtain, but they cannot find it.
+
+"Where is the eye piece?" Lily asks. "We need it to finish the puzzle."
+
+"I don't know," Max says. "Maybe it is lost. Maybe the dragon took it."
+
+They hear a noise from the puzzle. They turn around and see the purple dragon moving. It blinks its eye and smiles at them.
+
+"Hello, Lily and Max," the dragon says. "Thank you for making me. I was lonely in the box. You are very good at puzzles."
+
+Lily and Max are surprised and scared. They do not know what to say. The dragon seems friendly, but it is also big and strange.
+
+"Can we be friends?" the dragon asks. "I can show you many things. I can fly, breathe fire, and tell stories."
+
+Lily and Max look at each other. They are curious and excited. They decide to be brave and try something new.
+
+"OK, we can be friends," Lily says. "But you have to be careful. Don't break anything or hurt anyone."
+
+"Of course not," the dragon says. "I am a nice dragon. Come on, let's go and have fun."
+
+Lily and Max hold hands and follow the dragon. They leave the puzzle behind, except for the eye piece. The dragon puts it in his pocket. He says he likes to keep a souvenir.
+Lily and Tom are playing in the park. They see a big tree with many leaves. They want to climb the tree and see the birds. They are careful and hold on to the branches.
+
+"Look, Lily, I see a nest!" Tom says. He points to a hole in the tree. "Maybe there are eggs inside!"
+
+Lily is curious. She wants to see the nest too. She moves closer to Tom. But she steps on a weak branch. The branch breaks and Lily falls. She screams and lands on the grass.
+
+"Ow, ow, ow!" Lily cries. She holds her knee. It is red and hurts. Tom climbs down quickly. He runs to Lily and hugs her.
+
+"Are you okay, Lily?" Tom asks. He is worried and scared. He sees a man walking by with a dog. The man has a bag in his hand. The bag has money inside. Tom has an idea.
+
+"Excuse me, sir, can you help us?" Tom says. He waves to the man. The man stops and looks at them. He sees Lily crying and Tom holding her.
+
+"What happened, little ones?" the man asks. He is kind and helpful. He comes closer and kneels down. He opens his bag and takes out a band-aid. He puts it on Lily's knee gently.
+
+"There, there, it will be better soon," the man says. He smiles and gives Lily a candy. He also gives Tom a candy. He pets his dog and says, "This is Rex. He likes children. Do you want to pet him?"
+
+Lily and Tom nod. They stop crying and smile. They pet Rex and thank the man. The man says, "You're welcome. Be careful next time, okay? And don't climb too high. The tree is old and dangerous."
+
+Lily and Tom say, "Okay, we will. Thank you, sir. Thank you, Rex." They wave goodbye to the man and his dog. They hold hands and walk back to their mom. They tell her what happened and show her their candies. Their mom hugs them and says, "I'm glad you're okay. And I'm glad you met a helpful man. He was very nice to you. But next time, please don't climb the tree. It's not safe."
+
+Lily and Tom say, "We're sorry, mom. We won't do it again. We love you." They hug their mom and eat their candies. They are happy and safe. They learned a lesson and made a friend.
+Lily and Tom were playing in the garden. They liked to run and jump and hide. They saw a big shed with a door. They wanted to see what was inside.
+
+"Let's go in the shed," Tom said. "Maybe there are toys or books or animals."
+
+"OK," Lily said. "But we have to be quiet. Mom and Dad did not mention the shed. Maybe it is a secret."
+
+They went to the door and tried to open it. But it was locked. There was a big lock with a keyhole. They looked for the key, but they could not find it.
+
+"Maybe the key is under the mat or in the flower pot or on the window sill," Lily said.
+
+They searched everywhere, but they still could not find the key. They were sad and frustrated. They wanted to see the shed.
+
+Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was a growl. It came from the shed. They were frightened. They did not know what was in the shed. Maybe it was a lion or a bear or a monster.
+
+"Run!" Tom shouted. "There is something scary in the shed!"
+
+They ran away from the shed as fast as they could. They did not look back. They ran to Mom and Dad, who were sitting on the porch.
+
+"Mom, Dad, there is something scary in the shed!" Lily cried. "It growled at us!"
+
+"What are you talking about?" Mom asked. "There is nothing in the shed. It is just an old storage place. We never mention it because it is boring and dusty."
+
+"Then what was the noise?" Tom asked.
+
+Mom and Dad looked at each other. They smiled. They knew what was in the shed. It was their surprise for Lily and Tom. It was a puppy. They had bought it for their birthday. They had put it in the shed with some food and water and toys. They had locked the door to keep it safe. They had planned to give it to them later.
+
+They decided to give it to them now. They went to the shed and unlocked the door. They opened it and out came the puppy. It was small and fluffy and cute. It wagged its tail and licked their faces. It was not scary at all. It was friendly and happy.

+Anna and Ben like to go to the pond with their mom. They see many animals there. They see ducks, fish, frogs and turtles. They like to feed the ducks with bread. They like to watch the fish swim. They like to hear the frogs croak. They like to touch the turtles' shells.
+
+One day, they see a new animal at the pond. It is big and brown. It has a long nose and big teeth. It swims in the water and makes a loud noise. Anna and Ben are scared. They run to their mom and ask her what it is.
+
+Mom says, "That is a beaver. He is different from the other animals. He can sign with his tail. He can chop wood with his teeth. He can build a house in the water. He is very smart and busy."
+
+Anna and Ben are curious. They want to see the beaver sign with his tail. They want to see the beaver chop wood with his teeth. They want to see the beaver build a house in the water. They ask their mom if they can go closer.
+
+Mom says, "Yes, but be careful. The beaver may not like strangers. He may think you want to take his wood or his house. He may sign with his tail to warn you. He may bite you with his teeth. He may splash you with water. He may be very angry."
+
+Anna and Ben nod. They follow their mom to the edge of the pond. They see the beaver working hard. He signs with his tail when he sees them. He chops wood with his teeth and drags it to the water. He builds a house with mud and sticks. He splashes water with his nose.

+
+"Stop, fire!" Tim shouts. He grabs the lamp and pulls it. He wants to turn it off.
+
+"Be careful, Tim!" Sam says. He sees a wire. The wire is connected to the lamp and the wall. He thinks the wire is dangerous.
+
+But Tim does not listen. He pulls the lamp harder. The wire snaps. There is a spark. The spark makes a small fire. The fire touches the tablecloth. The tablecloth burns.
+

+
+One day, he saw a hole in the fence. He was curious and went to look. He saw a road with cars and people and other dogs. He thought it looked fun and exciting. He decided to leave the yard and explore. He squeezed through the hole and ran to the road.

+
+The sheep and the bear listened to the wise old owl and stopped fighting. They both realized how foolish they had been and thanked the owl for warning them.
