They like to watch movies at the theater. The theater has a big screen and loud sounds. Sometimes they get popcorn and juice. + +One day, Tom and Jen go to the theater to watch a new movie. They are very excited. They buy their tickets and go inside. But when they get to the seats, they see a problem. There are only two seats left, and they are not together. One seat is in the front row, and one seat is in the back row. + +Tom and Jen look at each other. They do not want to sit apart. They want to sit together and share their popcorn and juice. They do not know what to do. + +"Let's split the popcorn and juice," Tom says. "You take half and I take half. Then we can sit in the seats and watch the movie." + +"OK," Jen says. "But I want to sit in the front row. I can see better there." + +"Fine," Tom says. "I will sit in the back row. But I will miss you." + +They split the popcorn and juice and go to their seats.

We only need each other." + +They go to the park. They play and talk and have fun. They are not envious anymore. They are happy. They are friends. +Anna loved grapes. She liked to eat them one by one, or make a necklace with them, or pretend they were tiny balls. But her favorite thing to do with grapes was to feed them to the birds. She would go to the park with her mom and dad, and bring a big bag of grapes. She would look for the birds that had bright colors and long tails. She called them rainbow birds. + +"Look, mom, look, dad, there is a rainbow bird!" she would say, and run to the bird with a grape in her hand. She would hold out the grape and say, "Here, bird, here, have a grape. It is yummy and sweet. You will like it." + +Some of the birds were shy and flew away. But some of the birds were brave and curious. They would hop closer to Anna and take the grape from her hand. They would nibble it and make happy noises. Anna would smile and giggle. She liked to make the birds happy. + +One day, Anna saw a very rare bird. It was bigger than the other birds, and had a white head and a yellow beak. It had brown feathers on its body and black feathers on its wings. It looked like a king of the birds. Anna was amazed. She wanted to feed the rare bird a grape. + +She ran to the rare bird with a grape in her hand. She said, "Hello, rare bird, hello, you are so beautiful. Do you want a grape? It is yummy and sweet. You will like it." + +But the rare bird did not want a grape. It did not like Anna. It made a loud and angry noise. It flapped its wings and soared into the sky. It flew away very fast. Anna was sad and scared. She dropped the grape and ran back to her mom and dad. + +"Mom, dad, the rare bird did not like me. It did not want a grape. It was mean and scary. It flew away very fast. Why did it do that?" she asked, with tears in her eyes. + +Her mom and dad hugged her and comforted her. They said, "Don't worry, Anna, the rare bird was not mean and scary. It was just wild and free. It did not know you. It did not like grapes. It liked to soar in the sky. It was not a rainbow bird. It was an eagle. Eagles are very rare and special. You are lucky to see one. But you should not try to feed them. They are not your friends. They are not like the other birds." + +Anna nodded and wiped her tears. She understood. She said, "I'm sorry, rare bird, I'm sorry, eagle. I did not mean to bother you. You are very rare and special. You like to soar in the sky. I like to watch you. But I will not try to feed you. I will feed the rainbow birds. They are my friends. They like grapes. I like grapes. We are happy together." +Ben loves to fly. He has a big toy plane that he can sit in and make noises. He pretends he is a pilot and goes to different places. Sometimes he flies to the zoo and sees the animals. Sometimes he flies to the beach and plays in the sand. Sometimes he flies to the moon and meets the stars. + +One day, Ben wants to fly to a new place. He asks his mom where he can go. His mom thinks for a while and says, "How about the museum? They have a lot of modern things there. You can see how people made things long ago and how they make things now. It is very interesting." + +Ben likes the idea. He gets his toy plane and his mom gets her car. They drive to the museum and park outside. Ben takes his toy plane and runs to the entrance. He sees a big sign that says "Welcome to the Museum of Modern Art". He is excited to see what is inside. + +He and his mom go in and buy tickets. They walk around and look at the different things. Ben sees paintings and sculptures and photos and videos. Some of them are very colorful and pretty. Some of them are very strange and funny. Some of them are very hard to understand. Ben asks his mom what they mean. His mom tries to explain, but Ben does not always get it. + +He likes some of the things more than others. He likes the ones that look like animals or people or things he knows. He does not like the ones that look like nothing or make loud noises or hurt his eyes. He tells his mom which ones he likes and which ones he does not. His mom listens and smiles. + +After a while, Ben gets tired and thirsty. He asks his mom for some juice. His mom says, "Okay, let's go to the cafe and get some juice. Then we can go back and see more things." Ben agrees. He holds his mom's hand and his toy plane and walks to the cafe. He sees a lot of people sitting and eating and drinking. He sees a lot of different kinds of juice. He chooses the one that is orange and sweet. His mom chooses the one that is green and sour. + +They sit at a table and drink their juice. Ben likes his juice. He thinks it is yummy. He asks his mom if she likes her juice. His mom says, "Yes, I do. It is refreshing. Do you like the museum?" Ben says, "Yes, I do. It is fun. But I like flying more." His mom says, "I know. You are a great pilot. Maybe someday you can fly a real plane and see the world." Ben says, "That would be awesome. Can we go now?" His mom says, "Sure. Let's go. But first, let's say thank you to the museum for showing us the modern things." Ben says, "Okay. Thank you, museum. Bye, modern things. Maybe I will see you again." He and his mom get up and leave. They go back to the car and drive home. Ben flies his toy plane all the way. He is happy. He had a good day. +Sara likes to play in the snow. She makes a snowman with a hat and a scarf. She gives him a carrot nose and two buttons for eyes. She is happy with her snowman. + +But then the sun comes out. The sun is bright and hot. It makes the snow melt. Sara sees her snowman getting smaller and smaller. She is sad. She does not want her snowman to go away. + +She runs to her house. She looks for something to help her snowman. She finds a big mitten. The mitten is warm and fuzzy. She thinks it will keep her snowman cold. She puts the mitten on her snowman's head. She hopes it will stop the sun from melting him. + +She goes back to her house. She waits for a while. She wants to see if her mitten works. She goes out again. She looks at her snowman. She is surprised. Her snowman is not smaller. He is bigger. The mitten did not stop the sun. It made the snow increase. It made more snow fall on her snowman. He is now a giant snowman. He has a big mitten hat. He looks funny. Sara laughs. She is happy with her snowman again. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They run and jump and slide and swing. They have fun. + +But one day, they see a big basket of picks on a bench. Picks are red and round and sweet. Anna and Ben are hungry. They want some picks. + +Anna says, "Let's take some picks. No one is looking." Ben says, "No, that is bad. The picks belong to someone else. We should ask first." + +Anna does not listen. She runs to the bench and grabs a handful of picks. She puts them in her pocket. She says, "Come on, Ben. Let's go." + +But Ben does not go. He stays on the swing. He is sad. He does not want to be bad. He does not want to lose his friend. + +Then, a lady comes to the bench. She is the owner of the picks. She sees Anna with her pocket full of picks. She is angry. She says, "Hey, you! Why did you take my picks? That is not nice. That is stealing." + +Anna is scared. She drops the picks and runs away. She cries. She is sorry. She wishes she listened to Ben. + +Ben sees what happens. He feels sorry for Anna. He goes to the lady and says, "I'm sorry, ma'am. Anna is my friend. She was hungry. She did not mean to be bad. Can you forgive her?" + +The lady sees Ben's kind face. She sees he is honest. She says, "Well, you are a good boy. You did not take any picks. You told the truth. I forgive your friend. But she should say sorry too. And she should not do it again." + +Ben says, "Thank you, ma'am. I will tell Anna. I hope she will come back. I miss her." + +The lady says, "You're welcome, boy. Here, you can have a pick. It is a gift. You can share it with your friend. Maybe she will learn from you." + +Ben smiles. He takes the pick. He says, "Thank you, ma'am. You are kind. I will share it with Anna. I hope she will be my friend again." + +He runs to find Anna. He hopes she is okay. He hopes they can play again. He hopes they can be happy. +Tim and Anna are in bed. They are not sleepy. They want to play. But Mom and Dad said no. They said it is night time. They said they need to sleep. + +Tim and Anna are quiet. They do not want Mom and Dad to hear them. They hear only silence. The room is dark. They cannot see much. + +Tim has an idea. He whispers to Anna. "Let's stretch our arms and legs. Let's pretend we are big and strong. Let's make funny shapes with our bodies." + +Anna likes the idea. She whispers back. "OK. But we have to be very quiet. Shh." + +Tim and Anna start to stretch. They stretch their arms up and down. They stretch their legs left and right. They stretch their fingers and toes. They make circles and stars and triangles with their bodies. They giggle softly. + +They have fun. They forget about the dark and the silence. They feel happy and warm. They stretch until they are tired. Then they cuddle together. They close their eyes. They fall asleep. +Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to dig in the sand and look for things. Sometimes they found shells, stones, or coins. One day, they found something very strange. It was a skull! + +"Look, Lily, look!" Ben said, holding up the skull. "What is this?" + +Lily looked at the skull. It had big holes for eyes and a long mouth with teeth. She felt scared. + +"Ben, put it down!" she said. "It is scary and bad!" + +Ben shook his head. He thought the skull was cool and fun. + +"No, Lily, it is not scary and bad. It is a dinosaur skull!" he said. "Maybe it was a T-rex or a triceratops. They were big and strong and ate other animals. Yummy!" + +Lily did not like dinosaurs. She thought they were scary and bad too. + +"Ben, dinosaurs are not yummy. They are icky and mean. They would eat us if they were here. Let's go and play somewhere else!" she said. + +Ben did not want to go. He wanted to keep the skull and play with it. + +"No, Lily, dinosaurs are yummy. They are cool and nice. They would be our friends if they were here. Let's stay and play with the skull!" he said. + +Ben and Lily could not agree. They started to argue and shout. They did not enjoy playing anymore. They were not happy. + +A lady who worked in the park heard them. She came over and saw the skull. She was surprised and curious. + +"Hello, children, what have you found?" she asked. + +Ben and Lily stopped arguing and looked at her. They told her about the skull and the dinosaurs. + +The lady smiled and nodded. She knew a lot about skulls and dinosaurs. She told them that the skull was not a dinosaur skull, but a cow skull. She explained that cows were animals that lived on farms and gave milk and meat. She said that some cows died and their bones were left behind. She said that the skull was very old and rare and that they were lucky to find it. + +Ben and Lily listened to the lady. They learned something new. They felt less scared and more interested. They asked the lady more questions and she answered them. They enjoyed talking to her. They were happy. + +The lady asked them if they wanted to keep the skull or give it to her. She said that she worked in a museum and that she could put the skull on display for other people to see and learn. + +Ben and Lily thought about it. They liked the skull, but they also liked the idea of sharing it. They decided to give the skull to the lady. They said thank you and goodbye. + +The lady thanked them and took the skull. She said that she would write their names on a label and put it next to the skull. She said that they could come and visit the skull anytime they wanted. She said goodbye and left. + +Ben and Lily smiled and hugged. They were proud and happy. They had found a cow skull and given it to a museum. They had made a new friend and learned something new. They enjoyed their adventure. They were happy. +Lily liked to play hide and seek with her big brother Tom. She was very good at finding hiding places that he could not see. One day, she had a new idea. She saw a big cupboard in the kitchen that had a door that could open and close. She thought it would be a good place to hide. + +She opened the door and climbed inside. She saw many things in the cupboard, like pots and pans and spoons and forks. She also saw a big jar of cookies that Mom had made. She felt hungry and took one cookie. It was very yummy. She took another one and another one. She forgot about the game and ate many cookies. + +Tom looked for Lily everywhere. He could not find her. He checked under the bed, behind the sofa, in the closet, but she was not there. He started to worry. Where could she be? He went to the kitchen and saw the cupboard. He thought maybe she was hiding there. He opened the door and saw Lily with a big smile and crumbs on her face. + +"Lily, I found you!" he said. "What are you doing in there?" + +Lily giggled and said, "I was hiding and eating cookies. They are very good. Do you want some?" + +Tom saw the jar of cookies and saw that it was almost empty. He was not happy. He said, "Lily, you ate too many cookies. Mom will be angry. You are not supposed to eat them before dinner. That is not fair." + +Lily did not understand why Tom was angry. She thought he would like the cookies too. She said, "But they are harmless. They are just cookies. They make me happy. And you are my brother. I want to share with you." + +Tom looked at Lily and saw that she was not trying to be bad. She was just a little girl who liked cookies. He felt sorry for her. He said, "Okay, Lily. I am sorry for being angry. You are my sister. I love you. But we have to tell Mom the truth. Maybe she will not be mad if we say sorry." + +Lily nodded and said, "Okay, Tom. I love you too. Let's tell Mom. Maybe she will laugh and give us more cookies." + +They hugged and left the cupboard. They went to find Mom and tell her what they did. They hoped she would laugh and not be mad. +Lily liked to play with her drum. She had a red drum with yellow stars on it. She liked to hit it with her sticks and make loud noises. She thought it was fun and pretty. + +But her brother Ben did not like her drum. He thought it was too loud and annoying. He wanted to play with his cars and trucks in peace. He had a blue car with white stripes on it. He liked to zoom it around the floor and make vroom noises. He thought it was cool and fast. + +One day, Lily and Ben were playing in their room. Lily was banging her drum and Ben was driving his car. They were both happy. But then Ben had an idea. He wanted to change the drum. He thought it would be funny to make it quieter. He took some tape and paper and covered the drum with them. He thought Lily would not notice. + +But Lily did notice. She saw her drum was different. She tried to hit it with her sticks, but it did not make loud noises anymore. It made soft noises. She did not like it. She was sad and angry. She saw Ben was smiling. She knew he had changed her drum. She said to him, "Ben, why did you change my drum? I liked it loud. It was my drum. You are mean!" + +Ben saw Lily was crying. He felt sorry. He did not want to make her cry. He said to her, "Lily, I'm sorry. I was just playing. I did not mean to make you sad. I will change your drum back. I will take off the tape and paper. You can have your loud drum again. It is your drum. You are nice!" + +Lily stopped crying. She saw Ben was sorry. She said to him, "Thank you, Ben. I'm sorry too. I know you were just playing. You can have your car again. It is your car. You are nice too!" + +Ben and Lily hugged. They changed the drum back. They played with their drum and car. They were both happy. They learned to share and respect each other's toys. They were good siblings. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big poster on the wall. The poster has many stars and planets. It says: "Come and see the universe at the museum!" + +"Wow, what is that?" Anna asks. + +"It is the universe. It is where we live. It is very big and beautiful," Ben says. + +"I want to see it. Can we go to the museum?" Anna says. + +"OK, let's ask our moms," Ben says. + +They run to their moms, who are sitting on a bench. They show them the poster and ask if they can go to the museum. + +"Sure, that sounds like fun. The museum is not far from here. Let's go together," Anna's mom says. + +"Great, thank you, mom," Anna says. + +"Thank you, mom," Ben says. + +They walk to the museum, holding hands. They are very excited. They enter the museum and see a big room with many lights and screens. They see the sun, the moon, the earth, and many other things. They hear a voice that tells them about the universe. + +"Look, Anna, that is the earth. That is where we live. It is blue and green and has many animals and plants," Ben says. + +"It is very pretty. I like the earth," Anna says. + +"Look, Ben, that is the sun. It is very bright and warm. It gives us light and heat," Anna says. + +"It is very big. I like the sun," Ben says. + +They see many other things that make them wonder and smile. They learn new words and facts. They have fun. + +They see a man who works at the museum. He is wearing a white coat and glasses. He has a big smile. He sees Anna and Ben and comes to them. + +"Hello, kids. Do you like the universe?" he asks. + +"Yes, we do. It is very attractive," Anna says. + +"It is very attractive," Ben says. + +The man laughs. He thinks they are cute and smart. + +"I'm glad you think so. The universe is very attractive. It is also very amazing and mysterious. There is so much to discover and explore. Do you want to be astronauts when you grow up?" he asks. + +"Yes, we do. We want to see the universe," Anna says. + +"We want to see the universe," Ben says. + +The man laughs again. He gives them each a sticker with a star on it. + +"Here, these are for you. You are star kids. You have a bright future. Keep dreaming and learning about the universe," he says. + +"Thank you, sir," Anna says. + +"Thank you, sir," Ben says. + +They stick the stickers on their shirts. They are very happy. They hug the man and say goodbye. They go back to their moms, who are waiting for them. + +"Did you have fun, kids?" Anna's mom asks. + +"Yes, we did. We saw the universe. It is very attractive," Anna says. + +"It is very attractive," Ben says. + +Their moms laugh. They think they are adorable and clever. + +They leave the museum and go back to the park. They play some more. They look at the sky and see the sun and the clouds. They think about the universe and their stickers. They are very happy. They are friends. +Tom and Mia were best friends. They liked to play with toys and make things. One day, they found a big machine in the garage. It had many buttons and lights. + +"What is this?" Tom asked. + +"I don't know. Maybe it can do something fun," Mia said. + +They decided to try the machine. They pushed some buttons and turned some knobs. The machine made a loud noise and a bright flash. Then, Tom and Mia vanished. + +They found themselves in a high place. They saw many clouds and birds. They also saw a big plane flying near them. + +"Wow, this is amazing!" Tom said. + +"Look, we are in the sky!" Mia said. + +They felt happy and excited. They wanted to see more things. They pushed some more buttons and turned some more knobs. The machine made another loud noise and a bright flash. Then, Tom and Mia vanished again. + +They found themselves in a cold place. They saw many snow and ice. They also saw a big bear walking near them. + +"Brrr, this is freezing!" Tom said. + +"Look, we are in the snow!" Mia said. + +They felt scared and cold. They wanted to go back. They pushed some more buttons and turned some more knobs. The machine made another loud noise and a bright flash. Then, Tom and Mia vanished again. + +They found themselves in a hot place. They saw many sand and rocks. They also saw a big snake slithering near them. + +"Ouch, this is burning!" Tom said. + +"Look, we are in the desert!" Mia said. + +They felt thirsty and tired. They wanted to go home. They pushed some more buttons and turned some more knobs. But nothing happened. The machine was broken. + +"Oh no, what do we do now?" Tom said. + +"I don't know. I wish we never played with the machine," Mia said. + +They started to cry. They missed their toys and their families. They realized they had made a big mistake. + +Then, they heard a voice. + +"Tom, Mia, where are you?" It was Tom's dad. He had followed the machine's trail and found them. + +"Dad, we are here!" Tom shouted. + +"Mia, we are here!" Mia shouted. + +Tom's dad saw them and ran to them. He hugged them and gave them some water. He fixed the machine and took them back home. + +"Tom, Mia, I'm so glad you are safe. But you should never play with things you don't know. They can be dangerous and hurt you. You should always ask before you touch anything," Tom's dad said. + +"We are sorry, dad. We were curious and wanted to have fun. But we learned our lesson. We will never play with the machine again. We will always listen to you," Tom and Mia said. + +Tom's dad smiled and kissed them. He took them to their rooms and gave them their toys. They played with them and felt happy and warm. They thanked their dad and said sorry again. They also thanked each other for being best friends. They knew they had a big adventure, but they also knew they had a big responsibility. They promised to be careful and respectful from then on. +Tim and Sam were friends. They liked to play with toys. One day, Tim saw a new toy in Sam's room. It was a big truck with lights and sounds. Tim wanted the toy very much. + +"Can I play with your truck?" Tim asked Sam. + +"No, it is mine. You have your own toys," Sam said. + +"Please, just for a little while. I will be careful," Tim begged. + +Sam thought for a moment. He did not want to share his truck, but he did not want to lose his friend. He had an idea. + +"Okay, you can play with my truck, but only if you come with me to the park. I want to show you something," Sam said. + +Tim agreed. He was happy to play with the truck. He followed Sam to the park. Sam led him to a big slide. He told Tim to go up the slide and wait for him. + +"I will come with the truck. We can slide together," Sam said. + +Tim climbed up the slide. He looked down and saw Sam holding the truck. He smiled and waved. He waited for Sam to come. + +But Sam did not come. He ran away with the truck. He laughed and shouted. + +"Ha ha, you are so silly. I tricked you. This is my truck. You can't have it. Bye bye, Tim!" + +Tim felt very sad and angry. He cried and screamed. He wanted his friend and the toy back. But Sam was gone. He had lied to Tim. He was not honest. He was not a good friend. Tim was alone on the slide. He wished he had never seen the truck. He wished he had never met Sam. He learned a hard lesson. He should not trust people who are not honest. He should not want things that are not his. He should be happy with what he has. He should find better friends. He hoped he would. But he did not know how. He was still crying on the slide. The end. +Sara and Tom were playing in their room. They had many toys, but they wanted to try something new. They saw a hanger in the closet. It was shiny and curved. They thought it looked like a fun toy. + +"Let's play with the hanger!" Sara said. "We can pretend it is a snake or a hook or a bow." + +"Okay!" Tom said. "But we have to be careful. The hanger is rough and it can hurt us." + +They took the hanger and started to play. They made noises and moved it around. They had fun for a while, but then they got bored. They wanted to do something more exciting. + +"I have an idea!" Sara said. "Let's release the hanger from the window and see how far it goes." + +"Okay!" Tom said. "But we have to be careful. The hanger can hit someone or something." + +They went to the window and opened it. They looked outside and saw a street with cars and people and trees. They thought it looked like a big playground. + +"Ready?" Sara said. "One, two, three, release!" + +They threw the hanger out of the window and watched it fly. It went fast and far, but then it fell down. It landed on a car that was driving by. It made a loud noise and a big dent. The car stopped and the driver got out. He was angry and scared. He looked up and saw Sara and Tom at the window. He shouted at them and pointed at the hanger. + +"What did you do?" he yelled. "You could have killed me or someone else! You are very bad and naughty children! I will tell your parents and the police!" + +Sara and Tom were shocked and scared. They realized they had done something very wrong and dangerous. They felt sorry and ashamed. They closed the window and hid under the bed. They wished they had never played with the hanger. They learned a hard lesson: never play with things that are not toys and never throw things out of the window. +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play together in the garden. They have a big box of toys. They share the toys and have fun. + +One day, Mom says, "Lily and Ben, you have too many toys. You need to separate them. Some toys you can keep, and some toys you can give away to other kids who need them." + +Lily and Ben are sad. They do not want to separate their toys. They love all their toys. They say, "No, Mom, we want to keep all our toys. They are ours." + +Mom says, "Lily and Ben, I know you love your toys, but you have more than enough. Think of how happy you can make other kids who do not have many toys. You can be helpful and kind. And you will still have plenty of toys to play with." + +Lily and Ben think about what Mom says. They look at their toys. They see some toys that they do not play with much. They see some toys that are broken or old. They see some toys that are too small or too easy for them. + +They say, "OK, Mom, we will separate our toys. We will keep the toys that we like and play with a lot. We will give away the toys that we do not need or want. We want to be helpful and kind." + +Mom smiles and hugs them. She says, "Good job, Lily and Ben. You are very good twins. I am proud of you. Now let's put the toys in bags and take them to the charity shop. Then we can go to the park and enjoy the sunshine." +Lily and Tom were going to visit their grandma. They were very happy because they loved their grandma. She always gave them hugs and kisses and told them stories. She also had a big garden with flowers and birds. + +Lily and Tom had to pack their bags. They put in their clothes, their toys, their books and their toothbrushes. They also wanted to bring a gift for their grandma. They thought hard about what she would like. + +"I know!" said Lily. "She likes gum. She always has gum in her purse. Let's give her some gum." + +"Good idea!" said Tom. "But we only have one pack of gum. How will we share it?" + +Lily thought for a moment. Then she smiled. She had a lovely idea. She took the pack of gum and opened it. She gave half of the gum to Tom and kept half for herself. Then she took a piece of paper and a crayon and wrote a note. She put the note and the gum in a small box and wrapped it with a ribbon. + +"There!" she said. "Now we have a gift for grandma. And we can still have some gum for ourselves." + +Tom nodded. He liked Lily's idea. He put the box in his bag and zipped it up. Then they went downstairs to wait for their mom and dad. They were ready to go. + +When they arrived at grandma's house, they ran to hug her. She was very happy to see them. She took them to the living room and gave them some cookies and milk. Then she asked them if they had a gift for her. + +"Yes, we do!" said Lily and Tom together. They took out the box and gave it to her. "We hope you like it, grandma. It's something you love." + +Grandma smiled and opened the box. She saw the gum and the note. The note said: "Dear grandma, we love you very much. We know you like gum. So we gave you some gum. But we also wanted some gum. So we shared it. Half for you and half for us. We hope you don't mind. Love, Lily and Tom." + +Grandma laughed and hugged them. She said: "Thank you, my darlings. This is the best gift ever. I don't mind at all. Sharing is caring. And you are very lovely and smart. How about we have some gum together?" + +Lily and Tom nodded. They took out their gum and gave grandma a piece. Then they all chewed their gum and smiled. They were very happy. They had a lovely time with their grandma. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they find a big stick. It is long and brown and has many branches. + +"Look, Anna, I can carry this stick!" Ben says. He lifts the stick with both hands and walks around. + +"Wow, Ben, you are strong!" Anna says. She claps her hands and smiles. + +"Let's make something with the stick," Ben says. He puts the stick on the ground and looks around. + +"What can we make?" Anna asks. + +Ben thinks for a moment. Then he has an idea. + +"I know! We can make a point!" he says. + +"A point? What is a point?" Anna asks. + +Ben points to the sky with his finger. + +"A point is something that goes up, like that," he says. + +He picks up the stick again and tries to make it stand up. But the stick is too heavy and falls down. + +"Oh, no, it doesn't work," Ben says. He frowns and drops the stick. + +Anna picks up the stick and looks at it. She sees a branch that is shorter and thinner than the others. + +"Maybe we can use this branch," she says. She breaks the branch from the stick and holds it up. + +"See, this branch is like a point. It is not too heavy and it goes up," she says. + +She sticks the branch in the ground and it stays there. + +"Wow, Anna, you are smart!" Ben says. He claps his hands and smiles. + +"Thank you, Ben. We made a point together. It is our original point. No one else has a point like this," Anna says. + +They hug each other and look at their point. They are happy and proud. They decide to leave their point in the park for other children to see. They hope they will like it too. +Tim and Jen were twins who liked to play with toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big plane that could fly in the air. They took turns to make the plane zoom and swoop and loop. They had fun with the plane every day. + +One day, a new boy came to their house. His name was Rob and he was their cousin. He wanted to play with them, but he did not like the plane. He said the plane was boring and regular. He wanted to play with something else. He grabbed the plane from Jen and threw it on the floor. The plane broke into pieces. + +Tim and Jen were very sad and angry. They cried and yelled at Rob. They wanted their plane back. They tried to fix the plane, but it was too broken. They could not make it fly anymore. Rob did not care. He laughed and said he did not like the plane anyway. He went to play with his own toys. + +Tim and Jen did not want to play with Rob anymore. They did not like him. They felt lonely and hurt. They missed their plane. They hugged each other and trembled. They wished Rob would go away. They wished they had their plane back. They wished they could have fun again. But they could not. Their plane was gone and their day was ruined. +Tom and Anna liked to play in the park. They ran and jumped and laughed. One day, they saw a stream in the park. It was bright and clear and made a nice sound. + +"Look, a stream!" Tom said. "Let's go and see it." + +"OK!" Anna said. They ran to the stream and looked at it. They saw fish and rocks and plants in the water. + +"Can we touch it?" Anna asked. + +"Sure, but be careful. It is wet and cold." Tom said. They put their hands in the stream and felt the water. It was wet and cold and tickled their fingers. + +"Hey, look at this!" Tom said. He picked up a stick and put it in the stream. The stick split the water into two parts. One part went to the left and one part went to the right. + +"Wow, that's cool!" Anna said. She picked up another stick and did the same. They made more and more splits in the water with their sticks. + +They had fun playing with the stream and the sticks. They made the water go this way and that way. They laughed and splashed and forgot about the time. + +"Tom! Anna! Time to go home!" They heard their mom call. + +"OK, mom!" They said. They put their sticks down and waved goodbye to the stream. + +"Bye, stream! Thank you for the fun!" They said. + +They ran to their mom and hugged her. They told her about the stream and the sticks and the splits. She smiled and listened. She was happy that they had a good time. They went home together. +Lily was a dog who lived with a wealthy family. They gave her a lot of food, toys and love. She had a shiny collar and a long leash that they used to take her for walks. Lily was happy and grateful for her life. + +One day, Lily saw a big park across the street. She wanted to run and play with the other dogs there. She barked and pulled on her leash, but her family said no. They said it was too dangerous to cross the street. Lily did not understand. She thought they were mean and selfish. + +The next day, Lily saw a chance to escape. Her family left the door open for a moment, and she ran out. She did not listen to their calls and shouts. She only wanted to go to the park. She did not see the car that was speeding towards her. She did not hear the horn or the brakes. She only felt a big pain and then nothing. + +Her family ran after her, but it was too late. They cried and hugged her limp body. They prayed for her to wake up, but she did not. They wished they had been more careful and attentive. They blamed themselves for her death. They lost their best friend and their joy. +Tom and Anna were twins who liked to play outside. One morning, they woke up very early and saw the sky was pink and orange. They wanted to see the sunrise, so they ran to their parents' room. + +"Mom, Dad, wake up! We want to see the sunrise!" they shouted. + +Their parents were sleepy and grumpy. They told the twins to go back to bed and wait for breakfast. + +"But we want to see the sunrise! It is very pretty and we might miss it!" Tom and Anna insisted. + +Their parents sighed and got up. They put on their coats and shoes and followed the twins outside. They walked to the park, where there was a big hill. They climbed the hill and saw the sunrise. It was bright and beautiful and made them feel happy. + +They also saw an elderly man sitting on a bench. He had a dog with him. He smiled and waved at them. + +"Hello, children. Do you like the sunrise?" he asked. + +"Yes, we do! It is our first time to see it!" Tom and Anna said. + +"It is my favorite time of the day. I come here every morning with my dog, Spot. He likes to chase the birds and squirrels. Do you want to pet him?" the elderly man said. + +Tom and Anna nodded and went to pet the dog. He was soft and friendly and licked their faces. They laughed and played with him. + +Their parents joined them and talked to the elderly man. They learned that he lived nearby and was a retired teacher. He told them stories and jokes and gave them some cookies. + +They had a lot of fun and made a new friend. They thanked the elderly man and his dog and said goodbye. They went back home and had breakfast. They told their parents that they were glad they insisted to see the sunrise. Their parents agreed that it was a good idea and hugged them. They all felt happy and warm. +Ben and Mia were playing with their toys in the living room. Ben had a long train that he liked to make go around the carpet. Mia had a doll that she liked to dress up and talk to. They were having fun, until Mia saw Ben's mug on the table. + +"Can I have some juice?" Mia asked, reaching for the mug. + +"No, that's mine!" Ben said, grabbing the mug back. "You have your own mug in the kitchen." + +"But I want yours!" Mia whined. "It has a picture of a dog on it. Mine is boring." + +"Well, too bad. It's mine and you can't have it!" Ben shouted. He held the mug tightly and turned away from Mia. + +Mia was angry. She wanted the mug with the dog. She thought Ben was being mean and selfish. She decided to quit playing with him. She took her doll and walked to the other side of the living room. She sat on the couch and pretended to read a book. + +Ben felt lonely. He wanted to play with Mia. He thought Mia was being silly and stubborn. He decided to quit being mad at her. He took his train and walked to the other side of the living room. He sat next to Mia and smiled. + +"Hi, Mia. Do you want to play with my train?" Ben asked, offering his toy. + +Mia looked at Ben. She saw that he was being nice and friendly. She decided to quit being angry at him. She took his train and smiled back. + +"Hi, Ben. Do you want to play with my doll?" Mia asked, offering her toy. + +Ben nodded. He liked Mia's doll. He thought it had a pretty dress and hair. He decided to share his mug with her. He gave her the mug and said, "Here, you can have some juice. I don't mind." + +Mia was happy. She liked Ben's mug. She thought it had a cute dog on it. She decided to share her doll with him. She gave him the doll and said, "Thank you, Ben. You are very kind." + +Ben and Mia hugged. They were friends again. They played with their toys and drank their juice. They had fun, until it was time for dinner. +Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Lily had a fake doll that looked like a baby. Ben had a fake car that made noises. They were having fun, but they also made a lot of mess. + +"Stop, stop, stop!" Mom said, coming into the room. "Look at this mess! You need to clean up your toys and eat your lunch. It's time for your nap soon." + +"But Mom, we don't want to nap!" Lily and Ben said together. "We want to play more!" + +Mom shook her head. "No, you need to nap. You also need to eat your vegetables. They are good for you. They make you strong and healthy." + +Lily and Ben made faces. They did not like vegetables. They liked candy and cookies. They thought vegetables were yucky and bitter. + +"Please, Mom, can we have something else?" Lily asked. + +"No, you can't. You have to eat your vegetables. They are not fake, they are real. They are not toys, they are food. You can have a treat later, if you eat your vegetables and nap well." Mom said. + +Lily and Ben sighed. They knew Mom was right. They did not want to make Mom angry. They put away their toys and went to the table. They ate their vegetables, even though they did not like them. They drank their milk and said thank you. Then they went to their beds and took their naps. They dreamed of playing with their fake toys again. +Tommy was a big boy who liked to do things by himself. He did not like to ask for help or share his toys. He wanted to have everything his way. + +One day, he was playing with his blocks in his room. He heard his mom call him for lunch. He did not want to stop playing. He said, "No, I am busy. Go away!" His mom was not happy. She said, "Tommy, you have to eat. Come to the table now." + +Tommy ignored his mom. He kept playing with his blocks. He made a big tower and smiled. He was proud of his tower. He did not see his little sister Lily sneak into his room. Lily saw the tower and wanted to play too. She reached for a block and pulled it out. The tower fell down with a loud crash. + +Tommy was very angry. He yelled, "Lily, you are bad! You broke my tower! Go away!" He pushed Lily and made her cry. Lily ran to their mom and told her what happened. + +Mom came to Tommy's room. She saw the mess and the broken tower. She said, "Tommy, you are naughty. You did not listen to me. You did not share with Lily. You made her cry. You have to say sorry to Lily and help me clean up." + +Tommy did not want to say sorry or clean up. He said, "No, I don't want to. I want to play. Leave me alone!" He ran to the bathroom and locked the door. He thought he was safe there. + +Mom knocked on the door. She said, "Tommy, open the door. You can't stay in the bathroom. You have to come out and eat your lunch." + +Tommy said, "No, I won't. I don't like lunch. It is bitter. I want candy." He demanded candy from his mom. + +Mom said, "No, you can't have candy. You have to eat your lunch. It is good for you. It is not bitter. It is sweet. It has peanut butter and jelly. You like peanut butter and jelly." + +Tommy said, "No, I don't. I hate peanut butter and jelly. I want candy. Give me candy or I will stay in the toilet forever." + +Mom said, "Tommy, you are being silly. You can't stay in the toilet forever. You have to come out and eat your lunch. If you don't, you will be hungry and sad. And you will miss your nap and your story. You like nap and story, don't you?" + +Tommy thought for a moment. He did like nap and story. He was feeling a little hungry and tired. He did not want to miss his nap and story. He said, "Okay, fine. I will come out and eat my lunch. But only if you give me a hug and a kiss." + +Mom said, "Okay, deal. I will give you a hug and a kiss. But you have to say sorry to Lily and help me clean up your room." + +Tommy said, "Okay, okay. I will say sorry and help. But only if you give me candy later." + +Mom said, "We'll see about that. Now, open the door and come to the table." + +Tommy opened the door and came to the table. He said sorry to Lily and gave her a hug. He ate his lunch and said it was not bitter. He helped mom clean up his room and put his blocks away. He took a nap and listened to a story. He was a good boy for the rest of the day. He even got a candy as a treat. He was happy and so was his mom. +Tom and Lily were hungry. They went to the kitchen to find something to eat. There were many things on the table: bread, cheese, apple, carrot, cookie, and milk. + +"I want a cookie," Tom said. He reached for the plate. + +"No, Tom, you can't have a cookie now. You have to choose something healthy first," Lily said. She took the plate away from him. + +"That's not fair. You are not my mom. You can't tell me what to do," Tom said. He was angry. + +"Yes, I can. I am your big sister. And mom said we have to eat well before we can have a treat," Lily said. She was firm. + +Tom looked at the table. He did not like bread, cheese, or apple. He only liked cookie and milk. But there was only one carrot available. He did not like carrot either, but he was very hungry. + +"Fine, I will choose the carrot. But you have to share the cookie with me later," Tom said. He grabbed the carrot and bit it. + +"Okay, deal. But you have to eat the whole carrot, not just a little bit," Lily said. She smiled and gave him a glass of milk. + +Tom and Lily ate their food. They were not happy, but they were not sad either. They knew they had to listen to mom and Lily. And they knew they would get a cookie after. They were good children. +Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with cars and balls. But they do not like to share. They always fight for the same toy. + +One day, mom gives them a glass of milk each. She says, "Milk is good for you. It makes you strong and healthy. Drink your milk and then you can play." + +Tom and Sam drink their milk. But Tom drinks faster than Sam. He finishes his milk and sees that Sam still has some. He wants Sam's milk too. He says, "Give me your milk. I am still thirsty." + +Sam says, "No, this is my milk. You drank yours. Go away." + +Tom gets angry. He tries to grab Sam's glass. Sam holds it tight. They pull and push. The glass falls to the floor. The milk spills everywhere. Mom hears the noise. She comes to see what happened. + +She sees the mess. She sees Tom and Sam. She is not happy. She says, "Look what you did. You wasted the milk. You made a mess. You were greedy and selfish. You did not share. You did not listen. You are in trouble." + +Tom and Sam feel bad. They say, "We are sorry, mom. We were wrong. We should have shared. We should have listened. We will clean up the mess. We will not fight again." + +Mom says, "That is good. I hope you learned your lesson. Sharing is caring. Listening is respectful. Milk is great. But it is not worth fighting for. Next time, pause and think before you act." + +Tom and Sam nod. They hug mom. They hug each other. They clean up the mess. They drink some water. They play nicely. They are happy. +One day, a little girl named Anna wanted to eat some strawberries. She saw a big basket of red and juicy strawberries on the table. She was very hungry and did not want to wait for her mom to cut them. She was careless and did not ask for permission. She reached for the basket and tried to grab a strawberry. + +But the basket was too heavy and too high for Anna. She pulled too hard and the basket fell off the table. The strawberries rolled all over the floor. Anna was scared and sad. She did not mean to make a mess. She heard her mom enter the kitchen and saw the strawberries on the floor. + +"Anna, what did you do?" her mom asked. She was not happy. She had picked the strawberries from the garden and wanted to make a pie for dessert. She had worked hard and now the strawberries were dirty and bruised. + +"I'm sorry, mom. I wanted to eat a strawberry. I was careless and did not ask you," Anna said. She felt bad and started to cry. + +Her mom sighed and hugged her. She was not angry anymore. She knew Anna was hungry and did not know better. She said, "It's okay, Anna. I forgive you. But next time, you have to ask me before you take something. And you have to be careful and not make a mess. Do you understand?" + +Anna nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I understand. I'm sorry. I love you." + +Her mom smiled and said, "I love you too, Anna. Now, let's clean up the strawberries and see if we can still make a pie. Maybe we can share some with your dad and your brother. How does that sound?" + +Anna smiled and said, "That sounds good, mom. Thank you." + +They cleaned up the strawberries and made a pie together. They had a nice dessert and Anna learned a lesson. She was not careless anymore. She always asked for permission and was careful with things. She still loved strawberries, but she loved her mom more. +Ben and Sam are friends. They like to play in the snow. They make a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They give him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. + +"Look, our snowman is bald!" Ben says. "He needs some hair." + +"How can we give him hair?" Sam asks. + +Ben thinks for a moment. He has an idea. He takes off one of his mittens and puts it on the snowman's head. + +"There, now he has a mitten hair!" Ben says. + +Sam laughs. He thinks it is funny. He takes off his other mitten and raises it in the air. + +"Let's make another snowman!" Sam says. "He can have a mitten hair too!" + +Ben nods. He raises his other mitten and follows Sam. They run to find more snow. They are happy. They like to play in the snow. They like to make snowmen with mitten hair. +Lily was a curious girl who liked to learn new things. One day, her mom took her to see an opera. Lily did not know what an opera was, but she was excited to find out. + +They went to a big building with many seats and a big stage. Lily saw people in fancy clothes and masks. They sang very loud and high. Lily thought they sounded funny, but she wanted to listen. She asked her mom many questions, like who were the people, what were they saying, and why were they singing. + +Her mom tried to answer her questions, but she also told her to be quiet. She said that other people wanted to enjoy the opera, and that it was rude to talk during the show. Lily did not understand why she had to be quiet. She was not hurting anyone. She was just curious. + +But Lily saw that some people around them were looking at them with angry faces. They whispered to each other and shook their heads. Lily felt bad. She did not want to make anyone unhappy. She decided to stop asking questions and watch the show. + +She soon found out that the opera was a story. It was about a princess who loved a prince, but they could not be together because of a bad king. Lily felt sad for the princess and the prince. She wanted them to be happy. She also liked the music and the costumes. She thought they were beautiful and colorful. + +When the opera was over, Lily clapped her hands and cheered. She liked the opera very much. She thanked her mom for taking her. Her mom smiled and hugged her. She said she was proud of her for being respectful and patient. She said that being curious was good, but sometimes it was also good to listen and watch. She said that the opera was a way of telling a story with music and singing, and that it was a special art form that many people loved. + +Lily learned something new that day. She learned what an opera was, and she learned how to be polite and attentive. She also learned that there were many ways of telling stories, and that she could enjoy them all. She was happy and curious. +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two coal eyes. They were very happy with their snowman. + +"Let's go inside and have some hot cocoa," Lily said. "We can nap by the fire and warm up." + +"OK," Ben said. "But first, let's say goodbye to our snowman. Maybe he will be here tomorrow." + +They hugged their snowman and ran inside. Their mom was waiting for them with two mugs of hot cocoa. She smiled and kissed them. + +"Did you have fun in the snow?" she asked. + +"Yes, mom," they said. "We made a snowman. He is very nice." + +"That's wonderful," mom said. "Now drink your cocoa and nap on the couch. I have to do some work." + +Lily and Ben drank their cocoa and snuggled on the couch. They felt warm and sleepy. They closed their eyes and napped. + +While they were napping, a bad man came to their house. He wanted to steal their things. He saw the chimney and thought it was a good way to get inside. He climbed on the roof and slid down the chimney. + +But he did not know that there was a fire in the fireplace. He landed on the flames and screamed. He was very hot and hurt. He tried to get out, but he was stuck. He burned and burned. + +Lily and Ben woke up from their nap. They heard the bad man scream. They were scared and confused. They ran to their mom and told her what they heard. + +Mom called the police and the firemen. They came and put out the fire. They pulled out the bad man. He was black and red and smelled bad. He was dead. + +Lily and Ben cried. They did not like the bad man. They did not like the fire. They did not like the smell. They wished they had stayed outside with their snowman. They wished they had never napped by the fire. They wished they had a happy ending. +Ben and Lily liked to play near the pond. They saw many things there: fish, frogs, ducks, and bugs. Sometimes they picked up things and put them in a bucket. They wanted to sell them to other kids. + +One day, they found a big shiny stone in the mud. It was round and smooth and had many colors. Ben and Lily thought it was very pretty and very important. They decided to sell it for a lot of money. + +They took the stone and the bucket to the park, where many kids were playing. They shouted, "We have something to sell! Come and see!" + +Some kids came and looked at the bucket. They saw the fish, the frogs, the ducks, and the bugs. They said, "We don't want these. We can find them in the pond." + +Then they saw the stone. They said, "Wow, what is that? It is so shiny and colorful. Can we have it?" + +Ben and Lily said, "Yes, you can have it, but you have to pay us a lot of money. It is very important. We found it in the pond." + +The kids said, "We don't have a lot of money. We only have some coins and some candy. Can we trade with you?" + +Ben and Lily thought for a moment. They liked coins and candy, but they also liked the stone. They didn't know what to do. + +Then they heard a voice behind them. It was their mom. She said, "Ben, Lily, what are you doing? It is time to go home." + +Ben and Lily turned around and saw their mom. They said, "Mom, we found this stone in the pond. It is very pretty and very important. We wanted to sell it to other kids, but they don't have enough money." + +Their mom looked at the stone and smiled. She said, "That is a very nice stone, but it is not very important. It is just a glass marble. Someone must have lost it in the pond. You can keep it or give it away, but you can't sell it. It is not fair to ask for a lot of money for something that is not worth much." + +Ben and Lily felt surprised and a little silly. They didn't know it was a glass marble. They thought it was a special stone. They looked at the other kids and said, "Sorry, we made a mistake. You can have the stone if you want. We don't need it." + +The other kids said, "Thank you, that is very nice of you. Do you want some coins or some candy?" + +Ben and Lily said, "No, thank you, we have enough. We just want to play with you." + +So they gave the stone to the other kids and played with them until it was time to go home. They learned that some things are not as important as they seem, and that it is better to share than to sell. +Anna and Ben were friends. They liked to play in the garden. One day, they found a big pumpkin. It was orange and round. + +"Look, Anna, a pumpkin!" Ben said. "Can we take it home?" + +"Yes, let's take it home," Anna said. "We can make a pie with it." + +They lifted the pumpkin together. It was heavy. They carried it to Anna's house. Anna's mom was happy to see them. + +"Wow, what a big pumpkin!" Anna's mom said. "Do you want to help me make a pie?" + +"Yes, please!" Anna and Ben said. + +They washed the pumpkin. They cut it into pieces. They scooped out the seeds. They cooked the pumpkin. They mashed it. They added sugar and spice. They rolled out the dough. They put the pumpkin filling in the pie. They baked it in the oven. It smelled good. + +When the pie was ready, they cut a slice for each of them. They ate it with whipped cream. It was sweet and yummy. + +"Anna, this is the best pie ever," Ben said. "You are a good cook." + +"Thank you, Ben," Anna said. "You are a good helper." + +They smiled at each other. They had an idea. + +"Anna, do you want to marry me?" Ben asked. + +"Ben, do you want to marry me?" Anna asked. + +They nodded. They held hands. They kissed. + +"Anna and Ben, you are so cute," Anna's mom said. "But you are too young to marry. You can be friends for now." + +"OK, mom," Anna and Ben said. "But when we grow up, we will marry. And we will make pumpkin pies every day." + +They hugged. They were happy. They loved pumpkin pies. And they loved each other. +Tim and Jen are twins who like to play outside. One day, they see a big pile of leaves in their yard. They want to jump in the leaves and have fun. + +"Can we play in the leaves, Mom?" Tim asks. + +"Not yet, sweetie. You have to help me rake them first. Then you can play as much as you want." Mom replies. + +Tim and Jen are restless. They do not want to rake. They want to play. But they know they have to listen to Mom. They take the rake and start to rake the leaves. + +They rake and rake and rake. They make the pile bigger and bigger. They start to get tired and bored. They look at the pile and think how fun it would be to jump in it. + +"Mom, can we play now?" Jen asks. + +"Just a little more, honey. We are almost done." Mom replies. + +Tim and Jen are not happy. They do not want to rake anymore. They want to play now. They look at each other and have an idea. They drop the rake and run to the pile. They jump in the leaves and laugh and shout. + +"Hey, what are you doing?" Mom asks. + +"We are playing, Mom. We are having fun." Tim and Jen reply. + +Mom shakes her head and smiles. She knows they worked hard and deserve some fun. She joins them in the pile and plays with them. They all have fun in the leaves. +Lisa was a little girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite one was Anna. Anna had long yellow hair, blue eyes and a pink dress. Lisa thought Anna was very attractive. + +One day, Lisa's mom told her that they were going to a party. Lisa was happy, because she liked parties. She could eat cake, drink juice and play with other children. She asked her mom if she could bring Anna to the party. Her mom said yes, but she had to be careful with her doll. + +Lisa and her mom got ready and went to the party. It was at Lisa's cousin's house. There were many people, balloons and music. Lisa saw her cousin, Ben, and said hello. Ben was holding a toy car. He said hello to Lisa and Anna. + +"Do you want to play with me?" Ben asked Lisa. + +"OK, what do you want to play?" Lisa asked Ben. + +"Let's play follow the leader. I will be the leader and you will follow me. You can bring Anna too." Ben said. + +"OK, that sounds fun." Lisa said. + +Ben started to walk around the house, making noises with his car. Lisa followed him, holding Anna. They went to the living room, the kitchen, the bathroom and the backyard. They had fun, but Lisa was careful not to drop Anna. + +Then, Ben had an idea. He saw a big tree in the corner of the backyard. He wanted to climb it. He put his car on the ground and started to climb the tree. + +"Come on, Lisa, follow me. Let's climb the tree." Ben said. + +Lisa looked at the tree. It was very high and had many branches. She was scared. She did not want to climb the tree. She also did not want to leave Anna on the ground. + +"No, Ben, I don't want to climb the tree. It is too high and scary. I want to stay with Anna." Lisa said. + +"Come on, Lisa, don't be a baby. It is fun to climb the tree. You can see everything from up there. Anna can stay here. She is just a doll. She won't mind." Ben said. + +Lisa felt sad. She did not like what Ben said. She loved Anna. She was not just a doll. She was her friend. She did not want to leave her alone. + +"No, Ben, I won't leave Anna. She is my friend. I don't care if you think she is just a doll. I think she is very attractive. And I don't want to climb the tree. I want to go back to the party." Lisa said. + +Lisa picked up Anna and walked away from Ben. She did not follow him anymore. She went back to the house, where she found her mom. She told her mom what happened. Her mom hugged her and said she was proud of her. + +"Lisa, you did the right thing. You don't have to follow anyone who makes you feel bad. You can choose what you want to do. And you can love your doll as much as you want. She is very attractive, just like you." Her mom said. + +Lisa smiled and hugged her mom. She felt happy again. She decided to enjoy the party with her mom and Anna. She did not care about Ben and his tree. She had her own fun. +Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play in the garden. They saw many flowers that were blooming. They were pink, yellow, blue and purple. They smelled nice and looked pretty. + +Lily had a veil that her mom gave her. It was white and soft. She liked to wear it and pretend she was a princess. She put it on her head and said, "Look, Tom, I am a princess. You are my prince. You have to do what I say." + +Tom did not like that. He wanted to play something else. He wanted to be a pirate or a superhero. He said, "No, Lily, I don't want to be your prince. I want to be a pirate. Pirates are cool. They have swords and hats and treasure. You can be my pirate mate." + +Lily did not like that. She wanted to be a princess. She said, "No, Tom, I don't want to be your pirate mate. Pirates are mean. They fight and steal and make noise. You can be my prince. Princes are nice. They have crowns and horses and castles." + +They argued and argued. They did not want to play the same thing. They got angry and sad. They stopped being friends. + +Then they saw a funny thing. A bee came and landed on Lily's veil. It buzzed and tickled her. She screamed and ran. Tom saw her and laughed. He thought it was funny. He ran after her and helped her. He took the veil off her head and shooed the bee away. He said, "Are you okay, Lily? That was a funny bee. It liked your veil. Maybe it thought it was a flower." + +Lily was scared and then happy. She said, "Thank you, Tom. You are a good friend. That was a funny bee. It made me laugh too. Maybe it wanted to be a princess too." + +They hugged and smiled. They decided to play something else. They played with the flowers and the bees. They made a bouquet and a crown. They pretended they were a princess and a pirate. They had fun and were friends again. +Tom and Mia are adventurous. They like to do new things and see new places. One day, they find a big box in the backyard. They think it looks like a sail. They want to make a boat. + +They ask their mom for some tape and scissors. They cut the box and tape it together. They make a mast and a sail. They draw a flag and a window. They are very proud of their boat. + +They put their boat on the grass. They pretend it is the sea. They get inside their boat and hold the sail. They say, "Ahoy, matey! We are sailing to a faraway island!" + +They imagine they see dolphins and sharks. They wave to other boats. They sing songs and tell jokes. They have a lot of fun. + +Their mom comes out and sees them. She smiles and says, "What a wonderful boat you have made! You are very creative and adventurous. Do you want some snacks?" + +Tom and Mia say, "Yes, please! We are hungry from sailing. Thank you, mom!" + +They get out of their boat and hug their mom. They share their snacks and their stories. They are happy. They love their boat and their mom. +Sara and Lily were playing with their dolls in the garden. They liked to dress them up in different clothes and make them talk. Sara had a pink dress for her doll, and Lily wanted it. + +"Can I have your pink dress?" Lily asked Sara. + +"No, it is mine. You have a blue dress," Sara said. + +"But I like pink more. Please, Sara, let me have it," Lily begged. + +"No, no, no. Go away, Lily. You are not nice," Sara yelled. + +Lily felt angry and sad. She wanted to make Sara share with her. She saw a pair of scissors on the table. She had an idea. She grabbed the scissors and ran to Sara. + +"Give me the pink dress, or I will cut your doll's hair!" Lily threatened. + +Sara was scared. She loved her doll's long hair. She tried to hold her doll away from Lily, but Lily was stronger. She snipped the scissors and cut off a big chunk of the doll's hair. + +"Stop, stop, stop! You are mean, Lily! You ruined my doll!" Sara cried. + +Lily felt happy. She had the pink dress now. She put it on her doll and smiled. She did not care about Sara or her doll. + +Sara ran to the house, sobbing. She told her mom what Lily did. Her mom was angry. She called Lily's mom and told her to come and get her. She said Lily was not welcome to play with Sara anymore. + +Lily's mom came and scolded Lily. She took away the pink dress and the scissors. She said Lily had to say sorry to Sara and her doll. She said Lily had to go to her room and think about what she did. + +Lily did not want to say sorry. She did not want to go to her room. She did not want to think. She wanted to play with the pink dress. She threw a tantrum. She kicked and screamed and cried. + +But nobody listened to her. Nobody liked her. She was alone. She was sad. She wished she had not cut Sara's doll's hair. She wished she had been nice. She wished she had a friend. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with toys and books. One day, they find a big box in the garage. The box has a picture of a train on it. Lily and Ben want to travel on the train. + +They open the box and see many pieces of wood and metal.

They do not have some of the tools. They get angry and sad. + +They ask Mom for help. Mom looks at the book and the pieces. She says the train is a scale model. That means it is a small copy of a real train. She says the train is for grown-ups, not for kids. She says Lily and Ben can not travel on the scale train. They can only look at it. + +Lily and Ben are very disappointed. They do not want to look at the train. They want to ride on it. They cry and throw the pieces on the floor. Mom says they are being naughty. She says they have to clean up the mess. She says they have to say sorry to each other. + +Lily and Ben do not want to clean up or say sorry. They are still mad and sad. But then they see a big red ball in the corner. The ball is soft and bouncy. Lily and Ben have an idea. They decide to use the ball as a train. They take turns pushing and rolling the ball around the garage. They pretend they are traveling to different places. They make train noises and wave to each other. They have fun and forget about the scale train. + +Mom sees them playing with the ball. She smiles and says they are being creative and kind. She says they are successful at making their own train. She says she is proud of them. Lily and Ben hug Mom and thank her. They say they are sorry for making a mess and being naughty. They say they are happy with their ball train. They invite Mom to join them. They all travel on the ball train together. The end. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. They can make houses, towers, cars and animals with their blocks. + +One day, they decide to make a big zoo with their blocks. They add more and more blocks to their zoo.

It is Lily's baby brother, Max. He is crying in his crib. He wants to play too. He sees the blocks and he wants them. He crawls out of his crib and goes to the zoo. + +"Max, no!" Lily shouts. "These are our blocks! Go away!" + +But Max does not listen. He grabs the blocks and throws them. He breaks the cages and the animals. He makes a big mess. He laughs and claps his hands. + +Lily and Ben are very sad and angry. They worked hard on their zoo. They want to fix it. But they have no more blocks. Max took them all. + +"Max, you are very bad!" Ben says. "You ruined our zoo! Give us back our blocks!" + +But Max does not listen. He keeps playing with the blocks. He makes his own zoo. He makes a snake, a frog, a bird and a fish. He is very happy. + +Lily and Ben do not know what to do. They want to play with their blocks too. They want to have fun. They look at each other. They have an idea. + +"Max, do you want to play with us?" Lily asks. "We can make a bigger zoo together. We can add more animals. We can share our blocks." + +Max looks at them. He likes animals. He likes blocks. He likes to play. He nods his head. He smiles. + +"Okay!" he says. "Let's play!" + +Lily and Ben smile too. They go to Max and hug him. They take their blocks and start to build. They make a new zoo. They make more cages and more animals. They make a bear, a penguin, a elephant and a crocodile. They are very happy. + +They play with their zoo. They make noises like the animals. They pretend to feed them and pet them. They have a lot of fun. + +They are quiet. They are wild. They are friends. +Tim and Sam were brothers who lived on a big ranch with many animals. They liked to play with the horses, the cows, the sheep and the dogs. But they did not like to play with the pigs. The pigs were dirty and smelly and sometimes they bit or pinched them. + +One day, Tim and Sam saw a new pig on the ranch. It was red and had long ears and a curly tail. They thought it was funny and wanted to touch it. They ran to the pig pen and climbed over the fence. + +"Hello, red pig!" Tim said. "Can we pet you?" + +The red pig looked at them and snorted. It did not like strangers. It moved away from them and hid behind a pile of hay. + +"Come on, red pig!" Sam said. "Don't be shy. We just want to be friends." + +He reached out his hand to grab the red pig's tail. But the red pig was angry and scared. It turned around and pinched Sam's hand hard with its teeth. + +"Ow!" Sam cried. "That hurts! Bad pig!" + +He let go of the tail and ran back to the fence. Tim followed him and helped him climb over. They looked at Sam's hand and saw a red mark. + +"That was mean, red pig!" Tim said. "Why did you do that?" + +The red pig did not answer. It just grunted and went back to its hay. + +Tim and Sam ran to their mom and showed her Sam's hand. She washed it and put a bandage on it. + +"Mom, the red pig pinched me!" Sam said. "It was not nice!" + +Mom hugged him and said, "I'm sorry, Sam. That red pig is new here and it does not know you. It is afraid of people and it thinks you want to hurt it. You should not try to touch it without asking first. You should be gentle and respectful with all animals, even if they are different from you." + +Tim and Sam nodded. They learned their lesson. They decided to leave the red pig alone and play with the other animals instead. They hoped that one day, the red pig would trust them and be their friend. +Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big vine hanging from a tree. It looked like fun to swing on it. + +"Let's try it!" Tom said. He ran to the vine and grabbed it with his hands. He swung back and forth, laughing. + +"Me too!" Lily said. She followed Tom and took the vine. But the vine was rough and hurt her hands. She let go and fell to the ground. She cried. + +"Are you okay?" Tom asked. He ran to Lily and helped her up. + +"It hurts!" Lily said. She showed Tom her hands. They had red marks and scratches. + +"I'm sorry, Lily. I didn't know the vine was rough. Do you want to go home?"

We will seat on the chairs and wait for you." + +Mommy smiles. She says, "It's okay, Lily and Max. I know you love me. But you need to be careful in the kitchen. Some things are not for playing. They can be dangerous or dirty. You need to be alert in the kitchen. Do you understand?" + +Lily and Max nod. They say, "We understand, Mommy. We will be alert in the kitchen. We love you, Mommy." + +Mommy hugs them. She says, "I love you, too, Lily and Max. Now, let's clean up this mess. And then, I will make you a real cake. How does that sound?" + +Lily and Max clap.

Come here right now!" + +Lily and Max came to the living room. They saw their mom holding the treasure chest. They felt very guilty. They knew they had done something bad. + +They looked at each other and then at their mom. They did not know what to say. + +Their mom asked them, "Did you take my jewels?" + +Lily and Max nodded. They said, "Yes, mom. We are sorry. We were playing pirates. We did not mean to hurt you." + +Their mom sighed. She said, "I understand that you were playing, but you should not take things that are not yours. These jewels are very special to me. They were given to me by your grandma. They are not toys. They are very valuable and fragile. You could have lost them or broken them. How would you feel if someone took your favorite toys?" + +Lily and Max felt very sorry. They said, "We would feel very sad, mom. We did not think about that. We are very sorry. We will not do it again." + +Their mom hugged them. She said, "I forgive you, but you have to promise me that you will never take my jewels again. And you have to put them back where they belong. And you have to apologize to your grandma. She is coming for a visit tomorrow. She will be very happy to see you and your pirate ship. But she will not be happy to see her jewels missing." + +Lily and Max promised. They said, "We promise, mom. We love you and grandma. We will put the jewels back and say sorry to grandma. And we will find another treasure for our pirate ship. Maybe some rocks or shells or coins." + +Their mom smiled. She said, "That sounds like a good idea. Now, let's go and have some lunch. You must be hungry after sailing the seven seas." + +Lily and Max smiled too. They said, "Yes, mom. We are hungry. Thank you for forgiving us. You are the best mom in the world." + +They followed their mom to the kitchen. They still felt a little guilty, but they also felt happy. They learned a lesson. They knew that playing pirates was fun, but taking jewels was not. They decided to be more careful and respectful with other people's things. They hoped that their grandma would forgive them too. They looked forward to showing her their pirate ship and their new treasure. They hoped that she would like it. They hoped that she would play pirates with them. They thought that she would be a great pirate. They loved their mom and their grandma. They loved being pirates.

Next time, ask me to make more cocoa, or take turns with the cup. OK?" + +Ben and Lily nodded. They said sorry to each other and gave each other a kiss. Mama smiled and said, "That's better. Now, how about some more cocoa for everyone?" + +Ben and Lily cheered. They followed Mama to the kitchen and drank their cocoa together. They did not fight anymore. They learned to share. +Tom and Mia like to play in the garden. They see many insects there. They see ants, bees, butterflies and more. Tom and Mia like to race with the insects. They run after them and try to catch them. + +One day, they see a big insect. It has a long body and many legs. It is a centipede. Tom and Mia want to race with it. They run after it and try to touch it. But the centipede is fast and clever. It hides under a rock. + +"Come out, come out, centipede!" Tom says. "We want to race with you!" + +But the centipede does not come out. It says, "No, no, no! Go away, go away, go away! You are rude and mean. You want to hurt me. Leave me alone!" + +Tom and Mia are surprised. They do not want to hurt the centipede. They just want to play. They think the centipede is rude and mean. They do not like it. + +"Fine, fine, fine!" Mia says. "We do not want to race with you. You are not fun. You are not nice. We will race with someone else!" + +Tom and Mia leave the centipede alone. They look for another insect to race with. They see a ladybug. It is red and black. It is cute and friendly. It does not hide. It flies in the air. + +"Look, look, look!" Tom says. "A ladybug! Let's race with it!" + +"OK, OK, OK!" Mia says. "Let's go, let's go, let's go!" + +Tom and Mia run after the ladybug. They try to catch it. But the ladybug is fast and clever. It flies high and low. It lands on a flower. + +"Hello, hello, hello!" the ladybug says. "Do you want to race with me?" + +"Yes, yes, yes!" Tom and Mia say. "We want to race with you!" + +"OK, OK, OK!" the ladybug says.

Sara woke up and cried. + +Mom heard Sara cry. She came to Sara's room. She turned on the light and hugged Sara. She said, "It's okay, Sara. It was only a dream. The monster is not real. You are safe with me. I love you." + +Sara felt better. She hugged Mom back. She said, "I love you too, Mom. Thank you for coming. You make me feel better." + +Mom smiled and kissed Sara. She said, "You're welcome, Sara. I'm always here for you. You are my important girl. You are brave and smart and kind. I'm proud of you." + +Sara smiled too. She said, "Mom, can you tell me a story? A nice story, not a scary one." + +Mom nodded. She said, "Of course, Sara. I'll tell you a story. A story about truth and comfort and love. A story that will help you sleep well. Do you want to hear it?" + +Sara said, "Yes, Mom. I want to hear it. Please tell me the story." + +Mom said, "Okay, Sara. Listen well. The story begins like this..." +Tim and Sue were playing with their blocks in the yard. They liked to build towers and houses and bridges with the blocks. They had many colors and shapes of blocks to choose from. + +But there was a problem. A big, black bull lived in the farm next to their yard. The bull was ignorant. He did not know how to be nice or share. He only wanted to eat grass and chase things that moved. + +One day, the bull saw Tim and Sue's blocks. He thought they were toys for him. He ran towards the fence and jumped over it. He landed in the yard with a loud thud. + +"Look out!" Tim shouted. "It's the bull!" + +Sue screamed and ran to the porch. Tim followed her, but he was sad. He liked his blocks and did not want the bull to destroy them. + +The bull did not care. He stomped on the blocks with his hooves. He smashed the towers and houses and bridges. He tossed some blocks in the air with his horns. He made a big mess. + +"Stop it!" Tim yelled. "Those are our blocks! You are mean and ignorant!" + +The bull did not listen. He was having fun. He did not know that he was hurting Tim and Sue's feelings. + +Tim and Sue's mom heard the noise and came outside. She saw the bull and the blocks. She was angry and scared. + +"Go away, you bad bull!" she shouted. She picked up a broom and waved it at the bull. She made loud noises to scare him. + +The bull did not like the broom or the noises. He decided to leave. He ran back to the fence and jumped over it. He went back to his grass. + +Tim and Sue's mom hugged them and comforted them. She helped them pick up the blocks and put them in a box. She said they could play with them again tomorrow. + +"I'm sorry, Tim and Sue," she said. "That bull was ignorant. He did not know how to be nice or share. He did not know that he was destroying your blocks. But you are smart and kind. You know how to build and create. You know how to respect and love. I'm proud of you." + +Tim and Sue smiled and hugged their mom. They felt better. They still liked their blocks, but they liked their mom more. They hoped the bull would learn to be nice and share someday. But they did not want to play with him. He was too ignorant. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. It was a hot day and they were thirsty and tired. They saw a big tree with a lot of shade and ran to it. + +"Look, Lily, there are some daisies under the tree!" Ben said. He picked one and gave it to Lily. "This is for you. You are my friend." + +"Thank you, Ben. You are my friend too." Lily said. She smiled and put the daisy in her hair. + +They sat under the tree and drank some water from their bottles. They felt better and cooler. + +"Can we play some more?" Ben asked. + +Lily nodded. "Yes, let's play hide and seek. I will count and you hide." + +"OK, Lily. But don't peek!" Ben said. He ran to find a good hiding spot. + +Lily closed her eyes and started to count. "One, two, three..." + +But she heard a loud noise. It was a big dog barking. It came out of nowhere and ran towards them. It was scary and angry. + +Lily opened her eyes and saw the dog. She screamed. "Ben, Ben, where are you? There is a dog!" + +Ben heard Lily and came out of his hiding spot. He saw the dog too. He was afraid and ran to Lily. They hugged each other and hoped the dog would go away. + +The dog came closer and closer. It growled and showed its teeth. It wanted to bite them. + +Lily and Ben were very scared. They did not know what to do. + +But then they heard another voice. It was a man. He was the dog's owner. He came running and called the dog. "Rex, Rex, come here! Bad dog, bad dog!" + +The dog heard the man and stopped. It looked at the man and wagged its tail. It obeyed the man and ran to him. + +The man came to Lily and Ben. He was sorry and kind. He said to them. "I'm so sorry, kids. Are you OK? My dog escaped from his leash. He is not a bad dog, he is just playful. But he is too big and strong for you. He did not mean to scare you." + +Lily and Ben sighed. They were relieved and glad. They said to the man. "We are OK, thank you. But we were very scared. Your dog is too big and loud for us. He should not run after us." + +The man nodded. He said to them. "You are right, kids. I'm sorry again. I will keep him on his leash from now on. He will not bother you anymore. Can you forgive me and my dog?" + +Lily and Ben looked at each other. They were still a little scared, but they were also nice. They said to the man. "Yes, we forgive you and your dog. But please be careful next time." + +The man smiled. He said to them. "Thank you, kids. You are very brave and kind. Here, take these cookies. They are for you. And this is for your daisy." He gave them a bag of cookies and a ribbon. He tied the ribbon around the daisy in Lily's hair. He said to them. "Have a nice day, kids. And have fun." + +Lily and Ben thanked the man. They took the cookies and the ribbon. They waved goodbye to the man and his dog. They went back to the tree and ate the cookies. They felt happy and safe. + +They said to each other. "We are still friends, right?" + +They nodded. They said to each other. "Yes, we are still friends. And we have cookies and a ribbon. And a daisy." + +They smiled and hugged each other. They played some more under the tree. They forgot about the dog. They had a nice day. +Tom and Sam were brothers. They liked to play with their toys and books. But they did not like to pack their things when they had to go to grandma's house. They always left a mess in their room. + +One day, mom said, "Boys, we have to go to grandma's house today. Pack your things in your bags. Hurry up!" + +Tom and Sam did not listen. They kept playing with their toys and books. They did not want to pack. They said, "We don't need to pack. We can play at grandma's house. She has toys and books too." + +Mom was angry. She said, "Boys, if you don't pack your things, you will have nothing to play with at grandma's house. She does not have toys and books for you. She only has a sink and a spoon. And you will have to help her wash the dishes." + +Tom and Sam did not believe mom. They thought she was joking. They said, "Mom, you are funny. Grandma has toys and books for us. She always gives us cookies and milk. She is nice and chubby. We love her." + +Mom was tired. She said, "Fine. Don't pack your things. But don't come crying to me when you are bored at grandma's house. Come on, let's go." + +Tom and Sam followed mom to the car. They left their things in their room. They did not pack. + +When they got to grandma's house, they were surprised. Grandma did not have toys and books for them. She only had a sink and a spoon. And she asked them to help her wash the dishes. + +Tom and Sam were sad. They said, "Mom, you were right. Grandma does not have toys and books for us. She only has a sink and a spoon. And we have to help her wash the dishes. We are sorry. We should have packed our things." + +Mom said, "I told you so. Next time, listen to me and pack your things. Then you will have something to play with at grandma's house. And you will make her happy too." + +The moral of the story is: Listen to your mom and pack your things when you have to go somewhere. Otherwise, you will have nothing to play with and you will have to do chores. +Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite one was Anna. Anna had long hair, a pretty dress, and a smile on her face. Lily valued Anna very much and always took her to bed with her. + +One night, Lily had a bad dream. She dreamed that a big monster came into her room and took Anna away. Lily tried to scream, but no sound came out. She tried to run, but her feet were stuck. She felt very scared and sad. She wanted Anna back. + +She woke up with a loud cry. Her mom and dad heard her and came to her room. They saw Lily crying and holding Anna tightly. They hugged her and asked her what was wrong. + +"I had a nightmare, mommy. A monster took Anna away. I was so afraid. I love Anna. She is my best friend." + +"Oh, honey, it was just a dream. No monster can take Anna away from you. She is safe with you. We love you and Anna too. You are very brave and kind to value your doll so much." + +They kissed her and tucked her in. They turned on a small lamp and sang her a lullaby. Lily felt better and calmed down. She snuggled with Anna and closed her eyes. She hoped to have a peaceful dream. She knew her mom and dad and Anna were always there for her. +Ben and Mia are playing in the backyard with their water guns. They are very enthusiastic and run around, spraying each other and laughing. They pretend they are firefighters and the water is their hose. + +"Look, there is smoke!" Mia says, pointing to the barbecue. Dad is cooking some meat and the grill is making a lot of smoke. "We have to put out the fire!" + +Ben and Mia run to the barbecue and start spraying water at it. Dad is surprised and shouts, "Hey, stop that! You are ruining the meat!" + +Ben and Mia stop and look at Dad. They are confused and a little scared. They thought they were helping. + +Dad sees their faces and smiles. He is not angry, he is just joking. He picks them up and hugs them. "I'm sorry, kids. I know you were playing, but this is not a real fire. This is just smoke. It makes the meat tasty. Do you want to try some?" + +Ben and Mia nod and smile. They are hungry and curious. Dad gives them each a piece of meat and they bite it. It is hot and juicy and delicious. They like it a lot. + +They say, "Thank you, Dad. This is very good." + +Dad says, "You're welcome, kids. You are very brave and kind. But next time, please don't spray water at the barbecue, okay?" + +Ben and Mia say, "Okay, Dad. We understand." + +They hug Dad and go back to playing with their water guns. They are still enthusiastic, but they are careful not to spray anything that makes smoke. They have fun and enjoy the sunny day. +Lily was a restless sheep. She did not like to stay with the other sheep in the field. She wanted to see new things and have fun. One day, she saw a big red ball near the fence. She ran to the ball and pushed it with her nose. The ball rolled away and Lily followed it. + +The ball rolled to the farmer's house. The farmer was working in his garden. He saw Lily and the ball. He was angry. He did not want Lily to play with his ball. He shouted at Lily. + +"Go away, sheep! This is my ball! You are not allowed here!" + +Lily was scared. She did not want to make the farmer angry. But she also liked the ball. She wanted to keep it. She had an idea. She opened her mouth and bit the ball. She lifted it with her teeth and threw it over the fence. Then she ran back to the field. + +The farmer was surprised. He saw the ball fly over the fence. He ran to get it. But the ball was gone. It had landed in the river. The water carried it away. The farmer was sad. He had lost his ball. + +Lily was happy. She had thrown the ball very far. She had won. She did not care about the farmer. She went to join the other sheep. She was still restless. She wondered what else she could find to play with. +Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. They also have a lamp. The lamp is red and shiny. It makes light when they push a button. + +One night, Tom and Lily are not sleepy. They want to have fun. They turn off the big light and turn on the lamp. They pretend the lamp is a spaceship. They make noises like zoom and beep. + +"Let's go to the moon!" Tom says. + +"OK, but we have to be quiet. Mom and Dad are sleeping," Lily says. + +They crawl under the bed and hold the lamp. They imagine they are flying in space. They see stars and planets. They are happy. + +But then, they hear a loud knock on the door. It is Mom. She is alert. She heard their noises. + +"Tom, Lily, what are you doing?" Mom asks. + +Tom and Lily are scared. They drop the lamp. The lamp falls and breaks. It makes a big noise. The light goes out. + +"Sorry, Mom. We were playing with the lamp," Tom says. + +"That was not a good idea. The lamp is not a toy. It is dangerous. You could have hurt yourself. And you should be sleeping. It is late," Mom says. + +She picks up the lamp and throws it away. She turns on the big light. She hugs Tom and Lily. + +"I love you, but you have to follow the rules. Now, go to bed and sleep. I will read you a story tomorrow," Mom says. + +Tom and Lily nod. They are sorry. They say good night to Mom. They go to bed and sleep. They dream of spaceships and the moon. +Tom and Lily are playing in the park. They like to slide, swing and run. They see a big tree with many birds. They hear different sounds from the birds. + +"Look, Lily, a red bird!" Tom says. He points to a bird with red feathers and a yellow beak. + +"What sound does it make?" Lily questions. She wants to learn new sounds. + +Tom listens carefully. He hears the red bird sing. "Tweet, tweet, tweet!" he says. He tries to copy the sound. + +Lily laughs. She thinks Tom sounds funny. She sees another bird. It is blue and green. It has a long tail. + +"What about that one?" she questions. She points to the blue and green bird. + +Tom looks at the bird. He hears it make a loud sound. "Squawk, squawk, squawk!" he says. He tries to copy the sound. + +Lily covers her ears. She thinks the sound is too loud. She does not like it. + +"I like the red bird better," she says. "It has a nice sound." + +Tom nods. He agrees with Lily. He likes the nice sound too. + +They watch the birds for a while. They learn more sounds. They have fun in the park. +Lila was playing in the garden with her doll. She saw a butterfly with light blue wings. She wanted to catch it and show it to her doll. She ran after the butterfly, but it flew away. + +"Come back, butterfly!" she shouted. "You are so pretty!" + +The butterfly landed on a flower. Lila tiptoed closer, holding her doll. She reached out her hand to touch the butterfly. But then she felt a tickle in her nose. She tried to stop it, but she could not. + +"Achoo!" she sneezed loudly. + +The butterfly was scared by the noise. It flew away again, very fast. Lila was sad. She wanted to say sorry to the butterfly. + +"Where did you go, butterfly?" she asked. "I did not mean to scare you. I just wanted to be your friend." + +She looked around, but she could not see the butterfly. She felt a tear in her eye. She hugged her doll. + +"It's okay, Lila," her doll said. "Maybe the butterfly will come back another day. You can try again then. But now, let's go inside and have some juice. You might be sick if you sneeze too much." + +Lila nodded. She wiped her eye. She followed her doll to the house. She hoped the butterfly was not angry with her. She hoped the butterfly would come back and play with her. She liked the butterfly with light blue wings. +Lily and Max are playing with their toy trucks in the yard. They like to load dirt and rocks into the trucks and drive them around. Lily has a red truck and Max has a blue truck. + +One day, they see a big orange truck parked on the street. It has a sign that says "Road Work". They wonder what the truck is doing there. They run to the fence and watch. + +They see a man wearing a yellow vest and a hard hat. He is holding a shovel and a rake. He is working on the road. He digs up some old asphalt and puts it in the orange truck. Then he spreads some new asphalt on the road. He smooths it with the rake. + +Lily and Max think the man is very cool. They want to help him. They put on their own vests and hard hats. They are orange and green. They grab their shovels and rakes. They load some dirt and rocks into their trucks. They drive them to the road. + +They see the man and wave to him. They say, "Hi, we are Lily and Max. We want to help you. We have trucks and tools too." The man smiles and says, "Hi, Lily and Max. You are very nice. But you can't help me here. This is a dangerous place. You have to stay on the sidewalk." + +Lily and Max are sad. They want to work on the road. But they listen to the man. They know he is right. They say, "OK, we will stay on the sidewalk. But can we watch you?" The man says, "Sure, you can watch me. But be careful. And don't touch the orange truck. It is very hot." + +Lily and Max nod. They park their trucks on the sidewalk. They watch the man work on the road. They learn a lot. They have fun. They are happy. +Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the garden. They have a patch of dirt where they dig and plant seeds. They hope to grow flowers and vegetables. + +One day, a big dog comes to the garden. He is loud and scary. He barks and runs around. He digs up the patch of dirt. He makes a mess. Tom and Sue are sad and angry. + +"Go away, dog!" Tom shouts. "This is our patch! You are bad!" + +But the dog does not listen. He keeps digging and barking. He thinks the patch is his. + +Sue has an idea. She runs to the house and gets a bone. She throws the bone far away from the patch. + +"Look, dog!" Sue says. "A bone! Go get it!" + +The dog sees the bone. He stops digging and barking. He runs after the bone. He is happy. + +Tom and Sue are happy too. They hug each other. They fix their patch. They plant more seeds. They hope the dog will not come back. +Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play at the park. They liked to gather flowers, rocks and leaves and make pretend houses for their toys. They also liked to swing on the big swings and feel the wind in their hair. + +One day, they went to the park and saw a new boy sitting on the swing. He had a big backpack and a mean look on his face. He did not let anyone else use the swing. He said, "This is my swing. Go away!" + +Lily and Ben felt anxious. They wanted to swing, but they did not want to fight with the new boy. They decided to gather some things and play somewhere else. But when they came back, the new boy was still on the swing. He said, "You can't play here. This is my park. Go away!" + +Lily and Ben felt angry. They said, "No, this is our park. We can play here. You have to share the swing. It is not fair!" + +The new boy said, "No, I don't have to share. I am bigger and stronger than you. You are silly and weak. Go away!" + +Lily and Ben felt sad. They did not know what to do. They wanted to have fun, but they did not want to be bullied. They looked around and saw a nice lady walking her dog. They ran to her and said, "Please help us. There is a mean boy on the swing. He won't let us play. He is rude and scary. Please help us." + +The nice lady said, "Don't worry, children. I will help you. Come with me." She walked to the swing and said to the new boy, "Hello, young man. What is your name?" + +The new boy said, "My name is Max. This is my swing. Go away!" + +The nice lady said, "Max, I am sorry, but you can't have the swing all to yourself. There are other children who want to play. You have to share and be kind. That is the rule of the park. Do you understand?" + +Max said, "No, I don't understand. I don't want to share. I don't want to be kind. I want to be alone. Go away!" + +The nice lady said, "Max, I am sorry, but you can't be alone. You need friends. Friends are good. Friends make you happy. Friends help you learn and grow. Don't you want to have friends?" + +Max said, "No, I don't want to have friends. I don't need friends. I have my backpack. It has all my things. It is my only friend. Go away!" + +The nice lady said, "Max, I am sorry, but your backpack is not a friend. It is a thing. Things can't talk to you. Things can't hug you. Things can't play with you. You need real friends. Real friends are people. People like Lily and Ben. They are nice and friendly. They want to play with you. Why don't you give them a chance?" + +Max said, "No, I don't want to give them a chance. I don't like them. They are different from me. They are not like me. Go away!" + +The nice lady said, "Max, I am sorry, but you are wrong. They are not different from you. They are like you. They are children. They have feelings. They have dreams. They have hopes. They have fears. They have joys. They have sorrows. They are like you. And you are like them. You have more in common than you think. Why don't you try to find out?" + +Max said, "No, I don't want to try to find out. I don't care. I don't want to know. Go away!" + +The nice lady said, "Max, I am sorry, but you can't go on like this. You can't be rude and selfish. You can't be lonely and unhappy. You can't be afraid and angry. You have to change. You have to be polite and generous. You have to be friendly and cheerful. You have to be brave and calm. You have to be a good boy. Do you want to be a good boy?" + +Max said, "No, I don't want to be a good boy. I want to be a bad boy. I want to be a bad boy. Go away!" + +The nice lady said, "Max, I am sorry, but you can't be a bad boy. You can't be a bad boy. You can't be a bad boy. You can't be a bad boy. You can't be a bad boy. You can't be a bad boy. You can't be a bad boy. You can't be a bad boy. You can +Lila and Ben like to play with their bows and arrows. They make them from sticks and string and feathers. They pretend to be hunters and explorers in the woods. One day, they find a big tree with a hole in it. They wonder what is inside. + +"Can we look?" Lila asks Ben. + +"Maybe," Ben says. "But be careful. There might be something scary or bad in there." + +They go closer to the tree and peek inside. They see something shiny and bright. It is an arrow, but not like theirs. It is made of metal and has a pointy tip. It is broken in half. + +"Wow," Lila says. "Who left this here? Where did it come from?" + +"I don't know," Ben says. "Maybe it is from a long time ago. Maybe someone was fighting or hunting with it." + +They have many questions about the arrow. They want to know more. They take the arrow out of the hole and look at it. It is heavy and cold. They wonder if they can fix it or use it. + +"Let's take it home and show mom and dad," Lila says. "Maybe they can tell us something about it." + +"Okay," Ben says. "But don't touch the pointy part. It might hurt you." + +They put the arrow in their backpack and run back to their house. They are excited to share their discovery. They hope to learn more about the arrow and its story. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. They see a big tree with many leaves. They run to the tree and pick some leaves. + +"Let's make a cover with the leaves!" Lily says. "We can hide under the cover and pretend we are animals!" + +"OK!" Ben says. "I want to be a lion. Roar!" + +They put the leaves on the ground and make a big cover. They crawl under the cover and make animal sounds. They are playful and happy. + +Then they hear a song. It is a bird on the tree. The bird sings a pretty song. Lily and Ben listen to the song. They like the song. + +"Hello, bird!" Lily says. "Can you teach us your song?" + +The bird looks at them and nods. It sings the song again. Lily and Ben try to sing the song too. They copy the bird's sounds. The bird is happy. It sings louder and louder. + +Lily and Ben laugh. They sing louder and louder too. They have fun with the bird. They forget about the cover. The wind blows the leaves away. But they do not care. They have a new friend. The end. +Anna and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to spin on the swings and slide down the slide. They laughed and had fun. + +But then, a mosquito came and buzzed around them. It was a big and bright mosquito, with red and black stripes. It wanted to bite them and make them itch. + +"Go away, mosquito!" Anna said. "You are bad and mean. We don't want you here." + +But the mosquito did not listen. It flew closer and closer to them. It tried to land on their arms and legs. + +Ben was scared. He did not like mosquitoes. He wanted to run away and hide. But Anna had an idea. + +She said to Ben, "Let's spin faster and faster on the swings. Maybe the mosquito will get dizzy and leave us alone." + +Ben nodded. He liked Anna's idea. He thought it was smart and brave. He followed her to the swings. + +They spun faster and faster on the swings. They made a big wind with their feet. The mosquito could not fly well in the wind. It got dizzy and confused. It flew away and did not come back. + +Anna and Ben smiled. They were happy and proud. They had chased away the mosquito. They hugged and said, "We did it! We are a good team. We can do anything if we work together." + +The moral of the story is: teamwork can help you overcome challenges and problems. +Tom and Sam were brothers. They liked to play outside with their ball. One day, they saw a big bird in their yard. It was a turkey. + +"Wow, look at that bird!" Tom said. "It is incredible. It has a red thing on its head and a big tail." + +"Can we play with it?" Sam asked. He ran towards the turkey. + +"Stop, Sam, stop!" Tom shouted. "The bird might be scared or angry. It might peck you or run away." + +But Sam did not stop. He wanted to touch the turkey. The turkey saw Sam and made a loud noise. It flapped its wings and chased Sam. + +"Help, Tom, help!" Sam cried. He was afraid of the turkey. + +Tom ran to Sam and grabbed his hand. They ran back to the house. The turkey followed them, but it could not catch them. They slammed the door and locked it. + +"Are you okay, Sam?" Tom asked. + +"Yes, I am okay," Sam said. "But I am sorry. I should have listened to you. The turkey was not incredible. It was scary." + +"It's okay, Sam," Tom said. "You learned your lesson. Next time, we will be careful with animals we don't know. Maybe we can watch the turkey from the window. It might be incredible from far away." +Tim and Lily were playing with their blocks. They liked to attach them together and make towers and bridges and houses. They had many colors of blocks: red, blue, yellow, green, and white. + +"Look, Lily, I made a big tower!" Tim said, showing his sister his creation. "It is taller than you!" + +Lily smiled and clapped her hands. "Wow, Tim, that is a great tower! Can I help you make it bigger?" + +"Sure, Lily, you can attach more blocks on top. But be careful, don't make it fall!" Tim said, handing her some blocks. + +They worked together, adding more and more blocks to the tower. They were having so much fun, they did not notice that it was getting dark outside. The sun was going down and the sky was turning black. It was night time. + +"Tim, Lily, time to go to bed!" their mom called from the other room. "You have to put away your blocks and brush your teeth!" + +Tim and Lily groaned. They did not want to stop playing. They wanted to make their tower even bigger and see how high it could go. + +"But mom, we are not tired!" they said. + +"Yes, you are, my sweeties. You have been playing all day. You need to rest and sleep. Tomorrow, you can play with your blocks again. Come on, let's go to your room." their mom said, gently picking them up and carrying them to their beds. + +She tucked them in, kissed them good night, and turned off the light. Tim and Lily closed their eyes, but they still thought about their tower. They wondered if it would still be there in the morning. They hoped it would not fall. They dreamed of attaching more blocks and making it the biggest tower ever. They were happy. They were tired. They fell asleep. +Sara liked to design things. She had many papers and crayons and stickers. She made pictures of flowers and animals and houses. She showed them to her mom and dad and they said they were very good. + +One day, Sara wanted to design something new. She saw a big purple box in the garage. It was her dad's toolbox. She thought it would be fun to make it pretty. She took some crayons and stickers and went to the garage. + +She opened the box and saw many tools. She did not know what they were for, but they looked shiny and interesting. She picked up a hammer and a saw and a drill. She tried to draw on them with crayons, but they did not work. She tried to stick stickers on them, but they fell off. She was not happy. + +She heard her dad coming. He saw her with the tools and he was very angry. He shouted, "Sara, what are you doing? These tools are dangerous! You could hurt yourself or break something! Put them back in the box right now!" + +Sara was scared. She did not mean to make her dad angry. She did not know the tools were dangerous. She wanted to design something nice. She started to cry. She said, "I'm sorry, dad. I just wanted to make the purple box pretty. I like to design things." + +Her dad saw her tears and he felt sorry. He hugged her and said, "I know, Sara. I know you like to design things. But you have to be careful with the tools. They are not toys. They are for grown-ups. You can design things with your papers and crayons and stickers. They are safe and fun. How about we go inside and you show me your pictures?" + +Sara nodded. She put the tools back in the box and closed it. She took her dad's hand and they went inside. She showed him her pictures and he said they were very good. He said he was proud of her. He said he loved her. Sara smiled. She loved her dad too. She was happy. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together. One day, they find a big map in the library. The map shows many countries. Anna and Ben want to learn more about them. + +"Look, this is where we live," Anna says, pointing to a small shape on the map. "This is our country." + +"What is this big one?" Ben asks, pointing to another shape. "It has many colors." + +"That is another country. It is called India. It has many people and animals and plants," Anna says. She remembers what her teacher told her. + +"Can we go there?" Ben asks. He likes to see new things. + +"Maybe one day, when we are older. We need a plane to go there. It is very far," Anna says. + +"I want to see the animals. What kind of animals are there?" Ben asks. + +"There are many kinds. Some are big and some are small. Some are friendly and some are not. Look, this is a tiger. It is big and orange and black. It can run fast and roar loud. It is not friendly. It can hurt us," Anna says, showing Ben a picture of a tiger in a book. + +"I don't like tigers. They are scary," Ben says, hiding behind Anna. + +"Don't be scared. Tigers are not here. They are in India. And there are people who take care of them and protect them. They are not all bad," Anna says, trying to encourage Ben. + +"What about this one? It is gray and has a long nose. It is funny," Ben says, pointing to another picture. + +"That is an elephant. It is very big and strong. It can lift things with its nose. It is friendly. It can help people and play with them. It is harmless," Anna says, smiling. + +"I like elephants. They are nice. Can we play with them?" Ben asks. + +"Maybe. If we go to India, we can see them and maybe touch them. But we have to be careful and gentle. They are still animals," Anna says. + +"OK. I want to go to India and see the elephants. And the plants. And the people. But not the tigers," Ben says. + +"Me too. Maybe we can go together. We can learn more about India and other countries. There are many things to see and do in the world," Anna says. + +They hug and look at the map and the book. They are happy and curious. They want to explore and discover. They are friends. +Anna and Ben are playing with their toys in the living room. They have a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Anna has a big bear and Ben has a little car. + +"Look, my bear can roar like this!" Anna says, holding her bear close to her face and making a loud sound. + +"That's cool, but my car can zoom like this!" Ben says, pushing his car on the floor and making a fast sound. + +They play for a long time, until their mom comes in and smiles at them. + +"Wow, you two are having a lot of fun, but you also look very tired. Do you know what I recommend?" she asks. + +"What, mom?" Anna and Ben say together, looking at her. + +"I recommend that you take a nap. A nap is when you lie down and close your eyes and rest for a while. It will make you feel better and give you more energy to play later," she explains. + +"A nap? But we don't want to nap, we want to play!" Anna and Ben protest, shaking their heads. + +"I know, I know, but trust me, a nap is good for you. And you can take your toys with you, if you want. Come on, let's go to your room and find a cozy spot to nap," she says, gently taking their hands and leading them to their room. + +Anna and Ben follow their mom, but they still feel reluctant to nap. They take their toys and lie down on their beds, but they keep their eyes open and look at each other. + +"Mom says a nap is good, but I don't like naps. Do you like naps?" Anna whispers to Ben. + +"No, I don't like naps either. Naps are boring. I like playing," Ben whispers back. + +They giggle and try to stay awake, but soon they feel their eyelids getting heavy and their bodies getting warm. They cuddle with their toys and close their eyes, and before they know it, they fall asleep. + +They have a nice nap, and when they wake up, they feel refreshed and happy. They see their mom smiling at them and giving them a hug. + +"See, I told you a nap was good for you. Now you are ready to play some more. How do you feel?" she asks. + +"We feel good, mom. Thank you for recommending a nap. We like naps a little bit now," Anna and Ben say, smiling. + +They get up and go back to the living room, where they play with their toys again, but this time with more energy and joy. They learn that sometimes a nap can be a good thing, and that their mom knows what is best for them. +Sara did not like to share her toys. She hated when her brother Tom came to her room and took her dolls and cars. She wanted to have all the space for herself and her toys. She would yell and cry and hit Tom when he did that. + +One day, Mom and Dad gave Tom a big box. It was a new toy for him. It was a rocket that could fly in the air. Tom was very happy. He wanted to show Sara his rocket and play with her. He ran to her room with the box. + +Sara saw Tom with the box and got very angry. She did not want him to bring his rocket to her room. She thought he was crazy. She said, "Go away, Tom! This is my room! I don't want your rocket here! It is ugly and noisy and stupid!" + +Tom felt sad. He did not understand why Sara was so mean. He liked his rocket. He thought it was cool and fun and smart. He said, "But Sara, this is my rocket. It is not ugly or noisy or stupid. It can fly in the space and see the stars and the moon. Don't you want to see the space with me?" + +Sara did not care about the space. She only cared about her toys. She said, "No, I don't want to see the space with you. I hate the space. It is dark and cold and scary. I like my room. It is bright and warm and cozy. Now go away and leave me alone!" + +Tom was very hurt. He did not want to fight with Sara. He wanted to be friends with her. He said, "OK, Sara. I will go away. But I hope you will change your mind. The space is not dark or cold or scary. It is beautiful and amazing and wonderful. Maybe one day you will see that too." + +He took his box and left Sara's room. He went to the backyard and played with his rocket. He made it fly in the air and imagined he was in the space. He saw the stars and the moon and smiled. He wished Sara could smile with him. +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in the garden. They had a big pumpkin that they wanted to carve for Halloween. But they also had a mean neighbor, Mr. Fox, who hated children and pumpkins. He always shouted at them to go away and leave him alone. + +One day, Tom and Lily decided to have some fun with Mr. Fox. They took their pumpkin and a knife and went to his fence. They carved a scary face on the pumpkin and put a candle inside. Then they waited for Mr. Fox to come out of his house. + +When Mr. Fox saw the pumpkin, he was very angry. He grabbed a stick and tried to smash the pumpkin. But the pumpkin was too hard and the stick bounced back and hit him on the nose. He screamed and ran back inside. Tom and Lily laughed and cheered. + +But they did not see that Mr. Fox had a dog, a big and fierce dog, that he kept in a cage. The dog heard the noise and smelled the pumpkin. He wanted to eat the pumpkin and the children. He broke the cage and ran towards the fence. + +Tom and Lily saw the dog and were very scared. They dropped the knife and ran away from the fence. But the dog was faster and jumped over the fence. He chased them across the garden. Tom and Lily cried for help. + +But then they remembered that they had a useful friend, a friendly cat, that lived in their house. The cat heard their cries and came out of the window. She saw the dog and the pumpkin. She had a plan. She ran to the pumpkin and scratched the candle. The candle fell out of the pumpkin and set the dog's tail on fire. The dog yelped and ran away from the pumpkin. He ran back to his cage and hid. + +Tom and Lily hugged the cat and thanked her. They took the pumpkin and the knife and went back to their house. They finished carving the pumpkin and put it on their porch. They were happy and proud of their pumpkin. They also learned a lesson. They never dared to bother Mr. Fox again. +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play on the farm. They had many animal friends, but their favorite was Molly the cow. Molly was big and brown and had soft spots. She was also very reliable. She always gave them fresh milk and let them pet her. + +One day, Tom and Lily wanted to surprise Molly with a flower crown. They picked some yellow and purple flowers from the field and tied them together. They were very proud of their gift. They decided to crawl under the fence and sneak up to Molly. They thought it would be fun. + +But they did not see the bull who was guarding the cows. The bull was big and black and had sharp horns. He did not like strangers. He saw Tom and Lily crawling and thought they were trying to hurt Molly. He snorted and charged at them. + +Tom and Lily were scared. They dropped the flower crown and screamed. Molly heard them and looked up. She saw the bull running towards them. She knew he was angry. She ran in front of Tom and Lily and mooed loudly. She told the bull to stop. + +The bull stopped and looked at Molly. He saw the flower crown on the ground. He realized Tom and Lily were not enemies, but friends. He felt sorry for scaring them. He lowered his head and apologized. He said he was just trying to protect Molly. + +Molly thanked the bull for being brave, but asked him to be more careful. She said Tom and Lily were her special friends and they made her a flower crown. She picked it up and put it on her head. She looked very pretty. + +Tom and Lily were happy. They thanked Molly for saving them and hugged her. They said she was the best cow ever. They also thanked the bull for being nice and gave him some flowers. They said he was a good bull. + +The bull smiled and nodded. He said he was sorry again and he liked the flowers. He said he would be more friendly from now on. He said Tom and Lily could come and visit anytime. + +Tom and Lily smiled and nodded. They said they would come and visit often. They said they loved Molly and the bull. They said they loved the farm and all the animals. They said they had the best day ever. +Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play with toys and draw pictures. One day, Tom draws a picture of a big red car. He wants to show it to Anna, but she lives far away. He asks his mom if he can mail the picture to Anna. + +"Sure, you can mail it," his mom says. "But you need to write her name and address on the envelope. Do you know how to do that?" + +Tom nods. He knows how to write his name and Anna's name. He also knows how to copy the address from a card. He writes everything on the envelope and puts the picture inside. He seals the envelope and gives it to his mom. + +"Good job, Tom," his mom says. "Now we can go to the post office and mail it. Do you want to come with me?" + +Tom says yes. He likes to go to the post office. He likes to see the mailman and the stamps and the boxes. He and his mom get in the car and drive to the post office. + +At the post office, Tom sees a man with a big bag of letters. He is the mailman. He is wearing a blue hat and a blue shirt. He is smiling. Tom wants to say hello to him, but his mom tells him something. + +"Tom, you have to be quiet," his mom says. "The mailman is deaf. He can't hear you. But he can see you. You can wave to him or give him a thumbs up." + +Tom understands. He knows what deaf means. It means you can't hear sounds. He feels sorry for the mailman. He wonders how he can do his job. He waves to the mailman and gives him a thumbs up. The mailman sees him and waves back. He also gives him a thumbs up. + +Tom feels happy. He thinks the mailman is nice. He hopes he will mail his picture to Anna. He gives his mom the envelope and watches her put it in a slot. He hears a clunk. He knows his picture is on its way to Anna. + +He can't wait for her to get it. He wonders what she will draw for him. He hopes she will mail it back to him. He thinks mailing pictures is fun. He wants to do it again. He asks his mom if he can. + +"Maybe next time," his mom says. "But now it's time to go home. It's almost lunch time. Are you hungry?" + +Tom says yes. He is hungry. He likes lunch. He likes sandwiches and juice and cookies. He and his mom get in the car and drive home. He thinks about Anna and the mailman and the big red car. He thinks he had a good turn. He smiles. +Lily and Tom are going on vacation with Mom and Dad. They are very happy. They pack their bags and toys and get in the car. Mom says they will see many new things on their vacation. + +The car drives for a long time. Lily and Tom look out the window and see trees, houses, cows, and birds. They play games and sing songs. Sometimes they ask Mom and Dad, "Are we there yet?" Mom and Dad say, "Not yet, but soon." + +After a while, they see a big blue water. It is the sea. Lily and Tom have never seen the sea before. They are very excited. They ask Mom and Dad, "Is that our vacation?" Mom and Dad say, "Yes, that is our vacation. We will stay in a house near the sea and play on the sand and swim in the water." + +They see a bridge over the water. The bridge is very long and high. Lily and Tom are a little scared. They hold Mom and Dad's hands. Mom says, "Don't worry, the bridge is safe. It will take us to our vacation." Dad says, "Look, you can see our vacation from here. It is that distant island with the palm trees. Do you see it?" Lily and Tom look and see the island. It looks very pretty and fun. They say, "Wow, we see it! We can't wait to get there!" + +The car crosses the bridge and reaches the island. Lily and Tom are very happy. They jump out of the car and run to the sand. They see shells, crabs, and starfish. They hear the waves and the seagulls. They smell the salt and the sun. They say, "This is the best vacation ever!" Mom and Dad smile and hug them. They say, "We are happy you like it. We love you very much." They all have a wonderful time on their vacation. +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play with toys. One day, they got a new toy from their mom. It was a fly that could move its wings and make sounds. Lily and Ben were very happy and wanted to try it. + +"Can I play with the fly first?" Lily asked. + +"No, I want to play with it first!" Ben said. + +They both reached for the fly and pulled it hard. The fly broke into two pieces and stopped working. Lily and Ben started to cry. + +Mom heard the noise and came to see what happened. She saw the broken fly and the sad twins. + +"What did you do to the fly?" Mom asked. + +"We both wanted to play with it and we broke it," Lily said. + +"Why didn't you take turns and share the fly?" Mom asked. + +"Because we were selfish," Ben said. + +Mom nodded and said, "Being selfish is not nice. It makes you and others unhappy. You should learn to share and be kind. Then you can have more fun and make more friends." + +Lily and Ben felt sorry and hugged each other. They said sorry to Mom and to the fly. Mom smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm glad you learned your lesson. Maybe we can fix the fly later. But for now, why don't you play with some other toys and spend some time together?" + +Lily and Ben agreed and went to their toy box. They found some cars and dolls and started to play. They shared and took turns and had a lot of fun. They were not selfish anymore. They were happy. +Ben liked to play in the garden. He liked to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. One day, he found a new bug. It was small and green and had long legs. It made a loud noise when Ben picked it up. Ben was happy. He had a new friend. He called the bug Cricket. + +Ben wanted to show Cricket to his mom and dad. He ran to the house with Cricket in his hand. He opened the door and shouted, "Look, look, I found a cricket!" But when he opened his hand, Cricket was gone. Ben was sad. He had lost his friend. + +Ben looked everywhere for Cricket. He looked under the sofa, behind the curtains, in the closet. He could not find Cricket. He heard a loud noise from the kitchen. He ran to the kitchen and saw his dad. His dad was holding a frying pan and a spatula. He was making pancakes. Ben smelled something good. He saw a plate with pancakes and syrup on the table. He also saw Cricket. Cricket was on the plate, next to the pancakes. Cricket was not happy. He was scared. + +Ben was surprised. He did not know how Cricket got on the plate. He did not want Cricket to be on the plate. He wanted Cricket to be his friend. He grabbed Cricket and ran to the garden. He put Cricket on a leaf and said, "I'm sorry, Cricket. I did not mean to lose you. You are my friend. You can stay in the garden and be happy. I will come and visit you every day." + +Cricket was happy. He thanked Ben and made a loud noise. Ben smiled and made a loud noise too. They were friends. Ben went back to the house and ate his pancakes. He did not tell his dad about Cricket. He knew his dad would not understand. He was glad he had saved Cricket. He was successful. He had a good day. +Lily and Tom are playing in the garden. They want to act like animals. Lily is a cat and Tom is a dog. They run and jump and make noises. + +"Meow, meow, I am a cat. I can climb the tree and catch the bird," Lily says. + +"Woof, woof, I am a dog. I can dig the hole and find the bone," Tom says. + +They have fun acting like animals. But then they see a big cross on the fence. It is red and white. It means no animals allowed. + +"Oh no, we can't play here. The cross says no animals. We have to go away," Lily says. + +"But we are not animals. We are children. We are just acting," Tom says. + +They look at each other. They are not sure what to do. They are not ready to stop playing. + +"Maybe we can act like something else. Something that the cross does not say no to," Lily says. + +"Like what?" Tom asks. + +Lily thinks hard. She has an idea. + +"I know. We can act like flowers. Flowers are nice and pretty. The cross does not say no to flowers," she says. + +"OK, let's act like flowers. How do we do that?" Tom asks. + +Lily shows him. She stands still and holds her arms up like petals. She smiles and says, "I am a rose. I am red and sweet. I smell good." + +Tom does the same. He stands still and holds his arms up like petals. He smiles and says, "I am a sunflower. I am yellow and bright. I follow the sun." + +They act like flowers. They are happy and quiet. They do not see the cross anymore. They only see each other. +Sara and Ben were playing in the park with their dog, Rex. Rex was a big, brown dog who liked to run and chase balls. Sara and Ben loved Rex very much and he was their best friend. + +One day, they saw a new dog in the park. It was a small, white dog with a pink bow on its head. The dog was very pretty, but also very bossy. It barked at Rex and tried to take his ball. Rex did not like that and growled at the white dog. + +"Hey, that's our ball!" Sara said to the white dog. "You can't have it!" + +The white dog did not listen. It snatched the ball from Rex's mouth and ran away. Rex chased after it, but the white dog was faster. It ran to a bench where an old lady was sitting. The old lady was the owner of the white dog. She had a wrinkled face and a cane. She looked very ancient. + +"Stop, stop!" the old lady said to Rex. "This is my dog's ball. You can't take it!" + +Rex did not understand. He thought the ball was his. He barked at the old lady and the white dog. He wanted his ball back. + +"Rex, come here!" Ben called to Rex. "Don't be rude!" + +Ben ran to the bench and grabbed Rex's collar. He looked at the old lady and the white dog. He felt sorry for them. He knew they were lonely and wanted to play. + +"I'm sorry, ma'am," Ben said to the old lady. "Rex is a good dog, but he doesn't like to share. Can we play with your dog and the ball together?" + +The old lady smiled. She liked Ben's manners. She nodded and said, "Of course, dear. That's very kind of you. What's your dog's name?" + +"His name is Rex," Ben said. "And this is my sister, Sara." + +"Hello, Rex. Hello, Sara," the old lady said. "My name is Mrs. Lee. And this is my dog, Fluffy." + +"Hello, Mrs. Lee. Hello, Fluffy," Sara said. She petted Fluffy's head. Fluffy wagged her tail. She liked Sara's touch. + +Rex looked at Fluffy. He felt sorry for being mean to her. He decided to yield the ball to her. He nudged the ball with his nose and pushed it to Fluffy. Fluffy looked surprised. She picked up the ball and dropped it in front of Rex. She wanted to play with him. + +Rex wagged his tail. He picked up the ball and tossed it to Fluffy. Fluffy caught it and tossed it back.

She gives it to the driver when they get on. + +The bus stops at a red light. Lily sees a big truck next to the bus. The truck has a lot of boxes on it. Lily wonders what is in the boxes. She asks Mom. + +"Mom, what is in the boxes on the truck?" Lily says. + +Mom looks at the truck and smiles. "I don't know, Lily. Maybe toys or books or clothes. What do you think is in the boxes?" Mom says. + +Lily thinks for a moment. She likes toys and books and clothes. She says, "I think there are dolls and cars and hats in the boxes. Can we have some?" + +Mom laughs. "No, Lily. We can't have some. The boxes belong to someone else. Maybe they are going to a store or a house or a school. We have our own toys and books and clothes at home, remember?" Mom says. + +Lily nods. She remembers. She likes her toys and books and clothes at home. She says, "Okay, Mom. I just wanted to see." + +The light turns green. The bus starts to move again. Tom sees a sign on the bus. The sign says, "Please have your ticket ready." Tom looks at Mom. He says, "Mom, where is your ticket?" + +Mom reaches into her pocket. She feels nothing. She looks in her purse. She sees nothing. She says, "Oh no, Tom. I think I lost my ticket. I don't have it anymore." + +Tom and Lily look at Mom. They are worried. They say, "What will we do, Mom? Will the driver be mad? Will we have to get off the bus?" + +Mom shakes her head. She says, "Don't worry, Tom and Lily. I will explain to the driver what happened. Maybe he will be nice and let us stay on the bus. Maybe he will give us a new ticket. We will see." + +The bus stops at the next stop. The driver looks at Mom. He says, "Ticket, please." + +Mom smiles at the driver. She says, "I'm sorry, sir. I had a ticket, but I lost it. I don't have it anymore. Can you please help me?" + +The driver looks at Mom. He looks at Tom and Lily. They look at him. He sees their faces. They are sad and scared.

I won't lose it again, I promise." + +The driver gives Mom the extra ticket. Mom takes it and puts it in her pocket. She says, "Thank you, thank you, thank you." + +Tom and Lily say, "Thank you, thank you, thank you." + +The driver says, "You're welcome, you're welcome, you're welcome." + +The bus starts to move again. Mom, Tom and Lily sit on their seats. They are happy and relieved. They look out the window and see the cars and trees and people. They see the truck with the boxes. They wonder what is in the boxes. They make up stories about the boxes. They have fun. They are on their way home. +Lily and Max are friends who live on the same street. They like to play outside when it is warm and sunny. One day, they find a big box near the trash can. They think it is a good place to hide and pretend. + +They take turns to go inside the box and say "boo" to each other. They laugh and have fun. But then, a big dog comes and smells the box. He barks and tries to bite the box. Lily and Max are scared. They scream and cry for help. + +A man who lives on the street hears them and comes to see what is wrong. He sees the dog and the box. He shouts at the dog and makes him go away. He opens the box and helps Lily and Max out. They hug him and thank him. + +He asks them where they live and why they are playing with the trash. They tell him their names and their houses. He says they should not play with the trash because it is dirty and dangerous. He says they should ask their parents before they go outside. He says he will mention it to their parents when he sees them. + +Lily and Max feel sorry and ashamed. They say they are sorry and they will not do it again. They say goodbye to the man and run back to their houses. They hope their parents will not be angry with them. They learn a lesson and promise to be more careful. +Lila and Tom were twins who liked to learn new things. One day, they went to the big museum with their mom and dad. The museum had many things from history, like old clothes, tools, and paintings. + +"Look, Lila, this is a painting of a king and a queen," Tom said, pointing to a big picture on the wall. "They look very fancy and rich." + +"Yes, they do," Lila agreed. "But do you see that man behind them? He looks thoughtful. I wonder what he is thinking." + +"Maybe he is thinking of a way to rise and become a king himself," Tom guessed. "Or maybe he is thinking of a way to help the people who are not rich and fancy." + +Lila and Tom asked their mom and dad about the painting. Their mom and dad told them that the man was a famous writer who wrote stories and plays. He was thoughtful because he had many ideas and words in his head. He did not want to rise and become a king, but he wanted to rise and make people happy and smart with his stories and plays. + +"Wow, that is very cool," Lila and Tom said. "Can we read some of his stories and plays?" + +"Sure, when you are a little older, you can read them," their mom and dad said. "They are part of history, but they are also part of today. They are still read and performed by many people around the world." + +Lila and Tom smiled. They were happy to learn something new. They decided to be thoughtful like the writer and to rise and make people happy and smart with their own words. +Tim and Lily were playing in the park with their toys. They had a ball, a truck, a doll and a rhinoceros. The rhinoceros was not a real one, but a toy one. It was big and gray and had a horn on its nose. Tim and Lily liked to pretend that it was their pet and that they could ride on it. + +One day, a big dog came to the park. It saw the rhinoceros and wanted to play with it. It ran to the rhinoceros and grabbed it with its mouth. It shook it and tossed it in the air. Tim and Lily were scared and ran to their mom. They told her that the dog took their rhinoceros. + +Mom went to the dog and asked it to give back the rhinoceros. The dog did not listen. It ran away with the rhinoceros. Tim and Lily cried. They thought they would never see their rhinoceros again. + +But then, something strange happened. The rhinoceros started to glow. It glowed brighter and brighter. Then, it disappeared. The dog was confused. It looked around, but could not find the rhinoceros. It barked and ran away. + +Tim and Lily saw the rhinoceros disappear. They were amazed. They wondered where it went. Then, they heard a sound. It was a loud snort. They looked up and saw the rhinoceros in the sky. It was flying. It had wings. It was a magic rhinoceros. + +The rhinoceros flew down to Tim and Lily. It was happy to see them. It licked their faces and let them ride on its back. Tim and Lily were happy too. They hugged their rhinoceros and thanked it for coming back. They learned that their rhinoceros was not a toy, but a friend. A very special friend. +Sara and Tom were playing with their dolls. They liked to make up stories and act them out. Sara was the princess and Tom was the knight. They had a castle and a dragon. + +"Help me, help me!" Sara said in a high voice. "The ugly dragon is coming to get me!" + +"I will save you, princess!" Tom said in a low voice. He picked up a stick and pretended it was a sword. He ran towards the dragon, which was a big pillow with eyes. + +The dragon roared and breathed fire, which was a red scarf. Tom waved his stick and hit the dragon. The dragon fell down and stopped moving. + +"Yay, you did it!" Sara said. She hugged Tom and kissed his cheek. "You are my hero!" + +Tom smiled and blushed. He liked Sara very much. He wanted to say something nice to her, but he did not know what word to use. He paused and thought hard. + +Sara looked at him and waited. She wondered what he was going to say. She hoped it was something sweet. + +Tom opened his mouth and said, "You are...you are...very pretty!" + +Sara smiled and said, "Thank you! You are very brave!" + +They hugged again and laughed. They were happy and did not care about the ugly dragon anymore. They continued to play and make up more stories. +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play outside in the world. They see many things: trees, flowers, birds, bugs. They have fun and laugh. + +One day, they find a big box. They open it and see many colors. They are paints. Lily and Tom want to paint. They take the paints and brushes and start to paint on the box. They make shapes and lines and dots. They are happy. + +But then, they see something else. They see a wall. It is white and clean. Lily and Tom think it is boring. They want to make it pretty. They take the paints and brushes and start to paint on the wall. They make more shapes and lines and dots. They are very happy. + +But then, they hear a voice. It is Mom. She is angry. She sees the wall and the paints and the brushes. She sees Lily and Tom. She says, "What did you do? You made a mess! You did not ask me! You did not clean! You are naughty!" + +Lily and Tom are scared. They see Mom and the wall and the paints and the brushes. They see the mess. They are not happy. They are sorry. They say, "We are sorry, Mom. We wanted to make the wall pretty. We did not know it was bad. We will clean it. Please do not be mad." + +Mom is still angry. But she sees Lily and Tom. She sees they are sorry. She says, "You should not paint on the wall. It is not yours. It is not nice. You should ask me first. You should clean after you play. You should be good." + +Lily and Tom nod. They say, "We understand, Mom. We will not paint on the wall again. We will ask you first. We will clean after we play. We will be good." + +Mom hugs them. She says, "I love you, Lily and Tom. But you have to learn. You have to respect the world and the things in it. You have to be careful and kind. You have to be sorry when you make a mistake. And you have to fix it." + +Lily and Tom hug her back. They say, "We love you, Mom. We will learn. We will respect the world and the things in it. We will be careful and kind. We will be sorry when we make a mistake. And we will fix it." + +They take the paints and brushes and a bucket of water. They go to the wall. They start to clean it. They make it white and clean again. They are not happy. But they are proud. They did the right thing. They are good. +Sam and Mia are playing with blocks. They like to build towers and bridges and houses. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. + +"Look, Mia, I can hold this big piece!" Sam says. He picks up a long and heavy block. He tries to put it on top of his tower, but it is too heavy. The tower falls down and makes a loud noise. + +"Oh no, Sam, you made a mess!" Mia says. She is not happy. She was making a bridge with her blocks, and now some of them are gone. "You should not hold such a heavy piece. You should use smaller pieces." + +"I'm sorry, Mia, I did not mean to make a mess." Sam says. He feels bad. He likes Mia and he likes to play with her. "Can I help you fix your bridge?" + +"Yes, you can, Sam." Mia says. She smiles. She is not angry anymore. She likes Sam and she likes to play with him. "You can use these small pieces. They are not heavy. They are easy to hold." + +Sam and Mia use the small pieces to make a new bridge. They are careful and gentle. They work together and have fun. They are happy. They hold each other's hands and admire their bridge. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their dolls. They liked to pretend they were in a restaurant and serve food to their dolls. Lily had a pink apron and a tray, and Ben had a chef hat and a spoon. + +"Hello, welcome to Lily and Ben's restaurant!" Lily said to her doll. "What would you like to eat today?" + +"I want a sandwich and a juice, please," her doll said in a high voice. + +"Okay, coming right up!" Lily said. She put a toy sandwich and a toy juice on her tray and walked to the table. "Here you go, enjoy your meal!" + +"Thank you, Lily, you are a good server!" her doll said. + +Lily smiled and looked at Ben. He was busy stirring a pot of soup with his spoon.

He put it on his tray and walked to his doll. "Hello, welcome to Lily and Ben's restaurant! I made you a yummy soup!" + +"Thank you, Ben, you are a good chef!" his doll said. + +Ben smiled and put the bowl in front of his doll. He and Lily sat down next to their dolls and pretended to eat with them. + +They were having a lot of fun, until they heard a loud bark. A big dog ran into the park and chased a ball. The dog was not mean, but Lily and Ben did not know that. They were scared of the dog. They dropped their trays and ran to their mom, who was sitting on a bench. + +"Mommy, mommy, there is a big dog!" Lily cried. + +"Mommy, mommy, help us!" Ben cried. + +Their mom hugged them and calmed them down. She looked at the dog and saw that it was friendly. It was wagging its tail and licking its owner's face. + +"Don't worry, sweeties, the dog is not going to hurt you. It is just playing with its owner. See, it is a nice dog," she said. + +She took them by the hand and walked to the dog and its owner. She asked if they could pet the dog. The owner said yes and told them the dog's name was Spot. + +"Hello, Spot, you are a cute dog!" Lily said, as she touched the dog's fur. + +"Hello, Spot, you are a fast dog!" Ben said, as he scratched the dog's ear. + +Spot licked their faces and wagged his tail. He liked Lily and Ben. Lily and Ben liked Spot. They were not scared of him anymore. They said thank you to the owner and went back to their restaurant. They picked up their trays and dolls and continued to play. They were happy and had a lot of fun. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park with their ball. They liked to kick the ball to each other and run after it. Sometimes the ball went too far and they had to look for it in the bushes or behind the trees. + +One day, the ball went over the fence and into the street. Lily and Ben ran to the fence and saw a big car coming fast. They were scared and shouted, "Stop! Stop! Our ball!" + +But the car did not stop. It hit the ball and made a loud noise. The ball popped and flew in the air. The car drove away and did not say sorry. + +Lily and Ben were sad and angry. They wanted their ball back. They tried to climb the fence, but it was too high and tight. They could not get over it. + +Then they heard a siren and saw a police car. The police car stopped near the fence and a police officer got out. He saw Lily and Ben and asked, "What happened, kids?" + +Lily and Ben told him about the car and the ball. The police officer nodded and said, "That was very bad. The car should not have done that. I will try to find the car and make it say sorry. But first, let me rescue your ball." + +He walked to the street and picked up the ball. It was flat and dirty. He brought it back to the fence and gave it to Lily and Ben. He said, "I'm sorry, kids. Your ball is broken. But I have something for you." + +He reached into his car and took out a new ball. It was red and shiny. He said, "This is a gift from me. You can play with it in the park.

It swims and dives in the water. It looks happy and fun. + +"Yuck, an otter!" Sam says. He hates the otter. The otter is bald on its head. It has no hair there. It looks ugly and mean. + +Tom and Sam go near the pond. They want to see the otter better. The otter sees them too. It comes out of the water. It makes a loud noise. It shows its teeth. + +"Hi, otter!" Tom says. He smiles. He wants to be friends with the otter. + +"Go away, otter!" Sam says. He frowns. He wants to scare the otter. + +The otter does not like Sam. It thinks Sam is rude and loud. It does not want to be scared. It wants to play with Tom. It runs to Tom. It licks his face. It wags its tail. + +Tom laughs. He hugs the otter. He thinks the otter is cute and nice. He does not care if it is bald. + +Sam cries. He runs away from the otter. He thinks the otter is gross and bad. He does not like it if it licks his face. + +Tom and the otter are happy. They play in the pond. They are friends. + +Sam and the otter are not happy. They do not play in the pond. They are not friends. +Lily and Max were playing in the living room. They had many toys, but their favorite was the red car. They liked to zoom it around the floor and make loud noises. + +"Zoom, zoom, zoom!" Max said, as he pushed the car towards Lily. + +"Watch out, Max!" Lily said, as she jumped over the car and landed on the sofa. She grabbed a cushion and threw it at Max. + +"Hey, that's not fair!" Max said, as he dodged the cushion and ran after Lily. He climbed on the sofa and tickled her. + +"Stop, stop, stop!" Lily said, as she laughed and squirmed. She hugged Max and said, "You're silly, but I love you." + +They heard a knock on the door. It was their mom, who had been shopping. She had a big bag in her hand. + +"Hello, my sweeties!" she said, as she entered the living room. "How was your playtime?" + +"It was fun, Mom!" Lily and Max said, as they ran to her and gave her a kiss. + +"I have a surprise for you," Mom said, as she opened the bag. She took out two beautiful dresses, one pink and one purple. "These are for you, Lily. I thought you would like them." + +Lily's eyes sparkled. She loved dresses, especially beautiful ones. She took the dresses and hugged them. + +"Thank you, Mom! They are so beautiful!" she said, as she tried them on. She twirled and smiled. + +"You're welcome, Lily. You look beautiful, too," Mom said, as she hugged her. + +"What about me, Mom?" Max asked, feeling left out. + +"Don't worry, Max. I have something for you, too," Mom said, as she took out another bag. She took out a blue jacket and a yellow hat. "These are for you, Max. I thought you would like them." + +Max's eyes widened. He loved jackets and hats, especially colorful ones. He took the jacket and the hat and put them on. + +"Thank you, Mom! They are so cool!" he said, as he posed and grinned. + +"You're welcome, Max. You look cool, too," Mom said, as she hugged him. + +Lily and Max were very happy. They had new clothes, a red car, and a cushion. But most of all, they had a loving mom. They were very lucky. +Lily loved animals. She wanted to be a veterinarian when she grew up. She liked to play with her stuffed animals and pretend they were sick or hurt. She would give them medicine and bandages and make them feel better. + +One day, she found a small bird in her backyard. It was lying on the grass and not moving. Lily was sad and scared. She picked up the bird gently and brought it inside. She put it in a shoebox with some soft cloth and a bowl of water. She hoped the bird would get well soon. + +She asked her mom to take her and the bird to the veterinarian. Her mom said yes and drove them to the animal clinic. There, they met a nice lady who was a veterinarian. She had long hair and a white coat. She was very attractive. She smiled at Lily and took the bird from the shoebox. She examined the bird and said it had a broken wing. She said she could fix it with a splint and some tape. She asked Lily if she wanted to help. Lily said yes and followed the veterinarian to a small room. + +The veterinarian showed Lily how to hold the bird gently and wrap the tape around its wing. She said the bird would need some time to heal and asked Lily if she wanted to keep it as a pet. Lily said yes and thanked the veterinarian. The veterinarian gave Lily some seeds and a cage for the bird. She said Lily should feed the bird every day and keep it warm and safe. She said the bird would be able to fly again in a few weeks. + +Lily was very happy. She named the bird Blue and took it home. She put the cage in her room and gave the bird some seeds and water. She talked to the bird and sang to it. She told it stories about her stuffed animals and her dreams of being a veterinarian. The bird ate the seeds and drank the water. It chirped and flapped its wing. It looked at Lily with its bright eyes. Lily felt a warm feeling in her heart. She loved the bird and the bird loved her. They were friends. +Lily liked to play in the garden with her mom. She liked to see the flowers and the bugs and the birds. She had a special plant that she watered every day. It was a sunflower and it was very tall and yellow. + +One day, Lily saw a big dog in the garden. The dog was barking and running around. It knocked over some pots and stepped on some plants. Lily was scared and ran to her mom. "Mom, mom, there is a big dog in the garden! He is hurting the plants!" she cried. + +Mom came out and saw the dog. She shouted at the dog and waved her arms. "Go away, dog! You are not welcome here! You are making a mess and scaring my daughter!" The dog stopped barking and ran away. Mom hugged Lily and said, "Don't worry, sweetie, the dog is gone. He won't come back. Let's check on your sunflower." + +They walked to the sunflower and saw that it was bent and broken. Some of the petals had fallen off and the stem was cracked. Lily felt sad and angry. She loved her sunflower and she wanted to protect it. She said, "Mom, look what the dog did to my sunflower! He was mean and bad! He broke my sunflower and made it helpless!" + +Mom looked at the sunflower and said, "I'm sorry, Lily, your sunflower is hurt. But it is not helpless. It is strong and brave. It can still grow and heal. We can help it. We can tie a stick to the stem and give it some water and some love. Maybe it will grow new petals and stand up again. Do you want to try?" + +Lily nodded and said, "Yes, mom, I want to try. I want to help my sunflower. I want to make it happy again." She found a stick and some string and helped mom tie it to the sunflower. She gave it some water and some kisses. She said, "I'm sorry, sunflower, that the dog hurt you. I will protect you and take care of you. You are my friend and I love you." + +The sunflower seemed to smile and nod. It thanked Lily and mom for their help. It said, "I love you too, Lily. You are a good and kind girl. You are my friend and I trust you. You make me happy and proud. Thank you for protecting me and taking care of me." +Tom and Sue were friends who liked to play with blocks. They had many blocks of different shapes and colors. They could make houses, towers, cars and animals with their blocks. + +One day, Tom found a new block in his toy box. It was a fancy block. It was shiny and had many small squares on it. It looked like a star. Tom wanted to keep the fancy block for himself. He did not want to share it with Sue. + +"Look at my new block!" Tom said to Sue. "It is the best block ever. You cannot play with it. It is mine." + +Sue felt sad. She wanted to see the fancy block too. She thought it was very pretty. She asked Tom nicely, "Please, can I look at your block? I will be careful. I just want to see it." + +But Tom said, "No, no, no! Go away! This is my block. You have your own blocks. Leave me alone." + +Sue felt angry. She did not like how Tom was being mean. She decided to take the fancy block from Tom. She grabbed it from his hand and ran away. + +Tom chased after Sue. He wanted his block back. He shouted, "Give me my block! Give me my block! You are a bad friend. You are a thief." + +Sue ran faster. She did not want to give back the block. She thought Tom deserved it. She said, "No, you are a bad friend. You are selfish. You do not share." + +They ran and ran until they reached the end of the yard. There was a fence there. Sue tried to climb over the fence with the block. But the block was sharp. It cut her hand. She dropped the block and cried. + +Tom saw what happened. He felt sorry for Sue. He realized he had been wrong. He did not need the fancy block. He needed his friend. He said, "Sue, I am sorry. I should have shared with you. Are you okay? Does your hand hurt?" + +Sue looked at Tom. She saw he was sorry. She forgave him. She said, "Tom, I am sorry too. I should not have taken your block. It was yours. My hand hurts a little. But I will be okay." + +They hugged and made up. They decided to leave the fancy block behind. It was not worth fighting over. They went back to their toy box and played with their other blocks. They had more fun together. + +The moral of the story is: Sharing is caring. Do not be selfish or greedy. Do not fight over things. Be kind and respectful to your friends. +Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a man with a big bag of balloons. The man could whistle very loud and make the balloons fly in the air. + +"Wow, look at the balloons!" Tom said. "They are so colorful and flexible. Can we have one, please?" + +The man smiled and whistled again. He gave Tom and Lily each a balloon. Tom got a red one and Lily got a blue one. They thanked the man and ran to the swings. + +They tied their balloons to the swings and pushed each other. They laughed and had fun. The balloons bounced and twisted in the wind. + +Suddenly, a big bird flew by and popped Tom's balloon with its beak. Tom was sad and cried. His balloon was gone. + +Lily saw Tom crying and felt sorry for him. She whistled like the man and called him over. She gave him her balloon and said, "Here, you can have my balloon. I don't need it. We can share." + +Tom stopped crying and smiled. He hugged Lily and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are very kind and sweet.

They ran away as fast as they could. + +"Help, help!" they cried. + +They ran back to their home. They told their mom what happened. She hugged them and said, + +"Don't worry, you are safe now.

Maybe we should go inside and tell Mom and Dad!" Tom said. + +"OK, Tom. Let's go!" Lily said. + +They grabbed their toys and ran to the house. They told their parents what they saw and they all watched the volcano from the window.

He says, "No, Tom, you cannot show. The file is important. It has secrets. You cannot show secrets. You have to give back the file. Now." + +Tom is sad. He does not understand why he cannot show. He thinks his dad is mean. He says, "But, dad, why? Why can I not show? It is just a file. It is not bad. Please, let me show." + +Tom is persistent. He does not listen to his dad. He holds the file tight. He does not want to give it back. + +Tom's dad is tired. He does not want to fight with Tom. He says, "Okay, Tom, you can show. But only for a little. And only to Anna. And then you have to give back the file. And you have to say sorry. Do you understand?" + +Tom nods and smiles. He says, "Yes, dad, I understand. Thank you, dad. You are nice. I will show and then give back. And I will say sorry." + +Tom and Anna look at the file. They see many things. They are curious and happy. They show each other what they see. They say, "Wow, look at this. This is cool. This is funny. This is pretty." + +Tom's dad watches them. He is not angry anymore. He is glad that Tom and Anna are happy. He thinks they are cute and smart. He says, "Okay, Tom and Anna, time is up. You have to give back the file. And you have to say sorry." + +Tom and Anna close the file. They give it back to Tom's dad. They say, "Sorry, dad. Sorry, sir. We did not mean to make you angry. We just wanted to see. We like the file. It is interesting." + +Tom's dad hugs them. He says, "It's okay, Tom and Anna. I forgive you. I know you are curious and playful. But you have to be careful. The file is not for playing. It is for working. And it has secrets. You have to respect secrets. Do you understand?" + +Tom and Anna nod and say, "Yes, dad. Yes, sir. We understand. We will respect secrets. We will not play with the file. We will play with other things." + +Tom's dad smiles and says, "Good. I'm proud of you. Now, go and play with other things. And have fun. And be good." + +Tom and Anna run to their toys and books. They play with other things. They have fun. And they are good. +Ben liked to record sounds with his toy phone. He would record his mom singing, his dad reading, and his dog barking. He liked to listen to the sounds and make funny noises. + +One day, he saw a rabbit in the garden. It was white and fluffy, and it had long ears. Ben wanted to record the rabbit, so he ran after it with his toy phone. But the rabbit was scared of Ben, and it ran away. + +Ben followed the rabbit into the woods. He did not see where he was going. He stepped on a smelly pile of mud. He slipped and fell. His toy phone broke. He started to cry. + +"Ben, where are you?" he heard his mom calling. She had seen him run into the woods. She was worried. + +"Mom, I'm here!" Ben shouted. He was glad to hear his mom. He was dirty and sad. + +Mom found Ben and hugged him. She saw his broken toy phone and his smelly clothes. She was not angry. She was happy to find him. + +"Ben, what were you doing?" she asked. + +"I wanted to record the rabbit, but it ran away. And I fell in the mud. And I broke my phone. I'm sorry, Mom," Ben said. + +Mom smiled. She said, "It's okay, Ben. I'm not mad. But you should not chase the rabbit. The rabbit is afraid of you. You should be gentle and quiet with animals. And you should not go into the woods alone. You could get lost or hurt. You should stay close to me. Do you understand?" + +Ben nodded. He said, "I understand, Mom. I'm sorry. I love you." + +Mom said, "I love you too, Ben. Come on, let's go home and clean you up. And maybe we can find another toy phone for you. Or you can use your imagination and make your own sounds." + +Ben smiled. He learned his lesson. He held his mom's hand and walked home. He did not chase the rabbit anymore. He was gentle and quiet with animals. And he stayed close to his mom. He was happy. +Tim and Kim are twins who like to play in the park. One day, they see a big rat under a bench. The rat has a long tail and sharp teeth. Tim and Kim are scared of the rat. They run away and tell their mom. + +"Mom, mom, there is a rat in the park! It is big and ugly and scary!" Tim says. + +"Where is the rat, Tim? Show me," mom says. + +Tim and Kim take mom to the bench. But the rat is gone. They only see a small cat. The cat is black and white and has a bell on its collar. The cat is friendly and purrs. + +"Look, mom, this is the rat!" Kim says. + +Mom laughs. "This is not a rat, Kim. This is a cat. A cat is a pet. A rat is a pest. Can you guess how to tell them apart?" mom says. + +Tim and Kim think hard. They look at the cat and try to remember the rat. + +"I know, I know!" Tim says. "A cat has a bell and a rat has a tail!" + +"That's right, Tim. A cat has a bell and a rat has a tail. What else?" mom says. + +"A cat is soft and a rat is rough!" Kim says. + +"Very good, Kim. A cat is soft and a rat is rough. Anything else?" mom says. + +"A cat is happy and a rat is mean!" Tim and Kim say together. + +Mom smiles. "Yes, a cat is happy and a rat is mean. You are very smart, Tim and Kim. You learned how to tell a cat from a rat. But remember, not all rats are mean and not all cats are happy. Sometimes, you have to be kind and gentle to make friends with animals. Do you understand?" mom says. + +Tim and Kim nod. They pet the cat and say sorry for calling it a rat. The cat licks their hands and rubs its head on their legs. Tim and Kim are happy. They learned a new word and a new lesson. They thank mom and the cat and go back to play in the park. +Ben and Lily liked to play with their toy cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They made roads and bridges with blocks and books. They pretended to drive their cars to different places. + +One day, they decided to drive to a village. They put some of their cars in a big box and carried it to the backyard. They found a spot under a tree where they could make their village. They used sticks, stones, leaves and flowers to build houses, shops, a school and a park. They put some of their cars in the village and some outside. + +"Look, Lily, this is our village!" Ben said. "We can drive our cars here and have fun!" + +"Yes, Ben, this is a nice village!" Lily said. "It is calm and pretty. We can visit our friends and play games!" + +They drove their cars around the village, making sounds and stories. They stopped at the bakery to buy bread, at the library to borrow books, at the playground to slide and swing, and at the pond to feed the ducks. They had a lot of fun in their village. + +They played until their mom called them for lunch. They put their cars back in the box and said goodbye to their village. + +"Can we play here again tomorrow, Ben?" Lily asked. + +"Of course, Lily!" Ben said. "This is our village, and we can drive here anytime we want!" +Ben loves to play his trumpet. He likes to make loud noises and pretend he is in a band. He plays his trumpet every day after lunch. + +One day, his mom says, "Ben, I have a surprise for you. I got you a new toy. It is a record. You can use it to listen to music or to make your own music." + +Ben is very happy. He says, "Thank you, mom. Can I try it now?" + +Mom says, "Yes, you can. But first, you have to be quiet and listen to me. This is how you use the record. You put it on the round thing and you turn the switch. Then you can hear the music. If you want to make your own music, you press the red button and you play your trumpet. Then you can hear yourself on the record." + +Ben nods and says, "OK, mom. I understand. Can I play now?" + +Mom says, "Yes, you can. But remember, be careful with the record. It is very fragile. And don't play too loud. We have to be respectful of our neighbors. They like it peaceful." + +Ben says, "OK, mom. I will be careful and respectful. I love you." + +Mom says, "I love you too, Ben. Have fun with your record." + +Ben puts the record on the round thing and turns the switch. He hears a song with a trumpet. He likes it. He decides to play along with his trumpet. He presses the red button and plays his trumpet. He feels happy and proud. + +He plays for a while and then he stops. He turns the switch again and presses the red button. He hears himself on the record. He smiles and says, "Wow, that sounds good. I am a great trumpet player. I want to show mom." + +He runs to mom and says, "Mom, mom, listen to this. I made my own music with the record and the trumpet. Do you want to hear it?" + +Mom says, "Of course, I want to hear it. Let's go to your room and listen to it together." + +They go to Ben's room and listen to the record. Mom says, "Ben, you are amazing. You played the trumpet very well. You have a lot of talent. I am very proud of you." + +Ben says, "Thank you, mom. You are the best. I love you." + +They hug and kiss. They listen to the record again and again. They enjoy the music and each other. They are happy and peaceful. +Anna and Ben love to play at the park. They like to slide, climb and swing. They swing high and low, fast and slow. They laugh and sing. + +One day, they see a big jet in the sky. It makes a loud noise and leaves a white line. Anna and Ben stop swinging and look up. They wonder where the jet is going and who is inside. + +"I wish I could fly in a jet," Anna says. "It must be fun to see the clouds and the birds." + +"Me too," Ben says. "Maybe we can go in a jet someday, when we are big." + +They watch the jet until it is gone. Then they go back to swinging. They are happy to play at the park, but they are also envious of the jet. They hope to fly in a jet someday. +Ben and Lily were playing in the yard with their wagon. They liked to fill it with toys and pull it around. Sometimes they pretended it was a train or a boat or a spaceship. + +One day, they saw a new boy next door. He was sitting on his porch with a book. He looked lonely and bored. Ben and Lily wanted to say hello, but they were shy. + +"Let's peek at him," Ben whispered to Lily. "Maybe he wants to play with us." + +They pulled their wagon closer to the fence and peeked over. The boy looked up and saw them. He smiled and waved. + +"Hi, I'm Sam," he said. "What are you doing?" + +"We're playing with our wagon," Lily said. "It's fun. Do you want to join us?" + +Sam nodded and put down his book. He ran to the gate and opened it. He came over to Ben and Lily and looked at their wagon. + +"Wow, you have a lot of toys," he said. "Can I see them?" + +"Sure," Ben said. "You can play with them too. We can share." + +They showed Sam their toys and told him their names. They took turns pulling the wagon and making noises. They laughed and had a good time. + +Ben and Lily were happy. They had made a new friend. Sam was happy too. He had found some friendly neighbors. They played with their wagon until it was time for lunch. Then they said goodbye and promised to play again soon. +Lily liked to help her mom bake muffins. She liked to stir the batter, pour it into the cups, and smell the sweet smell in the oven. She also liked to eat the muffins when they were done, especially the ones with chocolate chips. + +One day, Lily and her mom baked some muffins for a picnic. They put them in a basket and went to the park. Lily saw some of her friends there and ran to play with them. She left the basket on the bench. + +A squirrel saw the basket and smelled the muffins. He was hungry and curious. He climbed on the bench and peeked inside the basket. He saw the muffins and wanted to try one. He reached his paw and grabbed a muffin. + +Lily's mom saw the squirrel and shouted, "Hey, that's our muffin! Leave it alone!" The squirrel was scared and ran away with the muffin in his mouth. He climbed a tree and ate the muffin. + +Lily heard her mom and came back to the bench. She saw the squirrel in the tree and the empty space in the basket. She asked her mom, "What happened to our muffin?" + +Her mom answered, "A squirrel took it. He was very naughty and rude. He didn't ask or say thank you." + +Lily felt sad and angry. She liked that muffin. She looked at the squirrel and said, "That's not nice! That's our muffin! Give it back!" + +The squirrel didn't answer. He just ate the muffin and made a harsh noise. He didn't care about Lily or her mom. He only cared about himself. + +Lily and her mom decided to ignore the squirrel and enjoy the rest of the muffins. They shared them with their friends and had a fun picnic. They learned to watch their basket and not let the squirrel steal their muffins again. +Lily was very happy. Her friend Anna was coming to play at her house. Lily wanted to prepare a welcome for Anna. She took out her crayons and paper. She drew a picture of Anna and her. She wrote "Welcome Anna" with big letters. She put the picture on the door. + +But then, her brother Tom came. He saw the picture. He did not like Anna. He thought she was too pretty and too nice. He wanted to make Lily sad. He took the picture and tore it into pieces. He threw the pieces on the floor. + +Lily saw what Tom did. She was very angry and sad. She cried. She ran to her mom. She told her what Tom did. Mom was not happy with Tom. She scolded him. She told him to say sorry to Lily and help her make a new picture. + +Tom felt bad. He knew he was wrong. He said sorry to Lily. He helped her make a new picture. He even gave her some stickers to decorate it. Lily forgave him. She smiled. She hugged him. + +Anna came to play. She saw the picture. She was very happy. She thanked Lily and Tom. She said they were very kind. They played together. They had fun. They learned to share and be nice. +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in the bath. They have many toys: a duck, a boat, a frog and a ball. They splash and laugh and make bubbles. + +Mama comes to the bathroom. She has a bottle of shampoo and a towel. She says, "Time to wash your hair, my loves. Shampoo makes your hair clean and shiny." + +Lily and Ben do not like shampoo. They say, "No, no, no! Shampoo stings our eyes. We do not want shampoo." + +Mama says, "Do not worry, my loves. I will be careful. I will tie your hair with a band. Then the shampoo will not go in your eyes. It will be quick and easy." + +Lily and Ben let Mama tie their hair with a band. Mama puts some shampoo on their hair and rubs it gently. She sings a song to make them happy. Then she rinses their hair with water. She says, "All done, my loves. Your hair is clean and shiny. You are good twins." + +Lily and Ben smile and hug Mama. They say, "Thank you, Mama. We love you. We love shampoo." They play with their toys again. They are happy. +Lily liked to draw with her crayons. She had many colors and she made pictures of flowers, animals and people. She was very careful with her crayons and always put them back in the box when she was done. + +One day, she went to visit her friend Max. Max also liked to draw, but he had different crayons. His crayons were very big and shiny and had a nice smell. They were expensive crayons that his grandma gave him for his birthday. + +"Can I try your crayons?" Lily asked Max. + +"Sure, but you have to be gentle with them. They are very special and expensive," Max said. + +Lily took a red crayon and started to draw a heart on a white paper. She liked how the crayon glided on the paper and made a bright mark. She wanted to make a line around the heart, but she pressed too hard and the crayon broke in half. + +"Oh no!" Lily cried. "I'm sorry, Max, I broke your crayon!" + +Max looked at the broken crayon and felt very sad and angry. He liked his crayons very much and he did not want them to break. + +"That was my favorite crayon! How could you break it? You are so clumsy and careless!" Max shouted at Lily. + +Lily felt very bad and scared. She did not mean to break the crayon. She wanted to make a nice picture for Max. She started to cry and ran to the door. + +"I'm sorry, Max, I'm sorry!" she sobbed. + +Max watched her go and felt sorry too. He did not want to make Lily cry. He knew she was his friend and she did not break the crayon on purpose. He picked up the broken crayon and looked at it. It was still a crayon, just in two pieces. He could still use it to draw. + +He ran after Lily and caught her at the door. + +"Lily, wait! Don't go! I'm sorry I yelled at you. It's okay, it's just a crayon. We can still draw with it. Look, I'll show you," he said. + +He took Lily's hand and led her back to the table. He gave her the broken crayon and a new paper. He took another crayon and started to draw a star. + +"See, we can still make nice pictures. And we can share our crayons. Do you want to try my blue one?" he asked. + +Lily smiled and nodded. She wiped her tears and took the blue crayon. She drew a moon next to the star. + +"Thank you, Max. You are a good friend. I like your crayons. They are very pretty and smell good," she said. + +Max smiled too. He hugged Lily and said, "You are welcome, Lily. You are a good friend too. I like your pictures. They are very colorful and happy." + +They continued to draw and talk and laugh. They forgot about the broken crayon and had fun with their crayons. They were happy. +Sara and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. Sara had a doll and Tom had a car. They were having fun until Tom saw Sara's doll and wanted to play with it. + +"Can I have your doll?" Tom asked Sara. + +"No, it is mine. You have your car," Sara said. + +"But I like your doll. It has a pretty dress and hair. My car is boring," Tom said. + +He tried to grab the doll from Sara, but Sara held it tight. They started to pull and tug on the doll. Sara and Tom both frowned. They were not happy. + +Their mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Sara and Tom fighting over the doll. She was thoughtful. She wanted them to share and be nice to each other. + +"Children, why are you frowning? What is the problem?" Mom asked. + +"Sara won't let me play with her doll. It is not fair," Tom said. + +"Tom won't play with his car. He wants my doll. It is mine," Sara said. + +Mom looked at the doll and the car. She had an idea. She smiled. + +"How about we trade for a while? Sara, you can play with Tom's car and see how fast it can go. Tom, you can play with Sara's doll and see how many outfits it has. Maybe you will find something new and fun in each other's toys. Then you can switch back later. What do you think?" Mom suggested. + +Sara and Tom thought about it. They were curious. They nodded. + +"Okay, Mom. We can try that," Sara said. + +"Okay, Mom. We can try that," Tom said. + +They gave each other their toys and said sorry. They started to play with the new things. They smiled. They were happy. Mom was happy too. She hugged them and said, "I love you, Sara and Tom. You are good children." +Tom was a chubby boy who liked to eat sandwiches. He ate them for breakfast, lunch and dinner. He ate them with cheese, ham, jam, peanut butter and jelly. He ate them so much that he had no room for other foods, like fruits, vegetables and milk. + +One day, his mom said, "Tom, you need to learn to eat other foods too. Sandwiches are good, but not all the time. They can make you sick and tired. Look, I made you a salad with lettuce, tomatoes, carrots and cheese. It is yummy and healthy. Try some, please." + +Tom made a face and said, "No, thank you, mom. I only want sandwiches. They are my favorite. I don't like salad. It is green and crunchy and boring. I don't want to learn to eat other foods. I want to eat sandwiches forever." + +Mom sighed and said, "Tom, you are being stubborn and silly. You can't eat sandwiches forever. You will miss out on many delicious and nutritious foods. You will also grow too chubby and have trouble moving and playing. You will not be happy or strong. You need to learn to eat other foods, or you will regret it later." + +Tom did not listen to his mom. He pushed away the salad and grabbed a sandwich. He took a big bite and chewed. But something was wrong. The sandwich did not taste good. It tasted stale and dry and bland. Tom spit it out and looked at it. It was old and moldy. He felt sick and scared. He realized that he had eaten too many sandwiches and that they had gone bad. He wished he had listened to his mom and tried the salad. + +He ran to his mom and said, "Mom, I'm sorry. I was wrong. I don't want to eat sandwiches anymore. They are bad and make me sick. I want to eat other foods. I want to eat the salad. Can I have some, please?" + +Mom smiled and hugged him. She said, "Of course, Tom. I'm glad you learned your lesson. Here, have some salad. It is fresh and tasty and good for you. You will feel better and happier. And you can still have sandwiches sometimes, but not all the time. You need to eat a variety of foods to be healthy and balanced. Do you understand?" + +Tom nodded and said, "Yes, mom. I understand. Thank you, mom. I love you, mom." + +He ate the salad and enjoyed it. He felt better and happier. He learned to eat other foods and not to be stubborn and silly. He also learned to listen to his mom and to appreciate her. He was a good boy. +Tim and Sam are best friends. They like to play with toys and pretend they are heroes. One day, they find a big box in the garage. It has a picture of a laser on it. Tim and Sam are curious. They open the box and see a shiny red thing. + +"Wow, look at this!" Tim says. "It's a laser! Maybe we can use it to fight bad guys!" + +Sam nods. He picks up the laser and presses a button. A bright beam of light comes out of the laser and hits the wall. Tim and Sam are amazed. They laugh and clap. + +"Let's go outside and play with it!" Sam says. He runs to the door with the laser. Tim follows him. + +They go to the backyard and see a big tree. Sam points the laser at the tree and presses the button. The beam of light makes a loud noise and a small hole in the bark. Tim and Sam are excited. They take turns shooting the laser at the tree, the fence, and the rocks. + +"Zap! Zap! Zap!" they shout. "We are the laser heroes!" + +But then, they hear a voice. It is Tim's mom. She has arrived home from work. She sees the laser and the holes in the tree. She is angry and scared. + +"Tim! Sam! What are you doing with that?" she yells. "That's not a toy! That's a dangerous tool! Give it to me right now!" + +Tim and Sam are shocked. They drop the laser and run to Tim's mom. They are sorry and scared. They hug her and say they are sorry. + +"We didn't know, mom," Tim says. "We just wanted to play." + +Tim's mom sighs. She is not happy, but she is glad they are not hurt. She picks up the laser and puts it back in the box. She tells Tim and Sam to go inside and wash their hands. She says they will talk about it later. + +Tim and Sam nod. They go inside and wash their hands. They are quiet and sad. They wish they had not played with the laser. They hope Tim's mom will not be too mad at them. They hope they can still be friends and play with other toys. They hope they can still be heroes. +Tom and Anna were playing in the garden. They liked to dig and find things in the dirt. Sometimes they found worms or stones or seeds. One day, they found a big red radish. It was round and shiny and had green leaves on top. + +"Wow, look at this!" Tom said. "It is a radish. I like radishes. They are crunchy and sweet." + +"I like radishes too," Anna said. "Can we eat it?" + +"Yes, let's go to the kitchen and wash it," Tom said. They ran to the house with the radish. + +But when they got to the door, they saw a fierce dog. It was big and black and had sharp teeth. It was barking and growling at them. It wanted the radish. + +"Go away, dog!" Tom shouted. "This is our radish. You can't have it." + +The dog did not listen. It jumped and tried to snatch the radish from Tom's hand. Tom and Anna were scared. They ran to the door and tried to open it. But it was locked. + +"Help, help!" they cried. "The door is locked. The dog is chasing us. We need to get inside." + +Their mom heard them and came to the door. She saw the dog and the radish and the children. She opened the door and let them in. She shooed the dog away with a broom. + +"Are you okay, my darlings?" she asked. "What happened?" + +"We found a radish in the garden," Tom said. "But the dog wanted it. It was fierce. It chased us. The door was locked. We were scared." + +"I'm sorry, my loves," mom said. "The dog belongs to our neighbor. He must have escaped from his yard. I will talk to him later. The door was locked because I was cleaning the house. I didn't know you were outside. I'm glad you are safe now." + +She hugged them and kissed them. She washed the radish and cut it into pieces. She gave them some butter and salt to dip it in. + +"Here, you can eat your radish now," she said. "You deserve it. You were brave and smart. You worked together and found something good in the garden." + +Tom and Anna smiled. They ate their radish and thanked their mom. They liked radishes. They were crunchy and sweet. +Jen and Ben liked to play in the harbor. They liked to see the big boats and the small fish. They liked to smell the salt and the flowers. They liked to hear the waves and the gulls. + +One day, they saw a new boat. It was red and shiny. It had a big flag and a loud horn. Jen and Ben wanted to see it closer. They ran to the dock and waved at the boat. + +The boat waved back. It was a friendly boat. It had a name on the side. It said "Bloom". Jen and Ben liked the name. They liked flowers that bloom. They thought the boat was like a flower. + +The boat came closer to the dock. It stopped and lowered a ladder. A man came down. He had a red hat and a big smile. He said hello to Jen and Ben. He said he was the captain of Bloom. He said he came from far away. He said he had a surprise for them. + +He opened a big box. Inside, there were many flowers. They were red and yellow and blue and pink. They were fresh and pretty. They smelled good. The captain said he brought them for Jen and Ben. He said they were his friends. He said he wanted to make them happy. + +Jen and Ben were very happy. They thanked the captain. They hugged the flowers. They smiled at the boat. They said they liked Bloom. They said they liked the captain. They said they liked the harbor. They said it was a good day. +Anna was a gifted girl. She could draw very well. She liked to draw animals and flowers and people. She had many crayons and papers to draw with. + +One day, her mom gave her a message. She said, "Anna, I have to go to the store. I will be back soon. Mind the house and do not open the door to strangers. OK?" + +Anna said, "OK, mom. I will mind the house and do not open the door. Can I draw while you are gone?" + +Mom said, "Yes, you can draw. But be careful and do not make a mess. I love you." + +Mom kissed Anna and left. Anna went to her room and took out her crayons and papers. She decided to draw a picture for mom. She drew a big heart and wrote "I love you, mom" inside. She also drew some flowers and a butterfly. She was very happy with her picture. + +She heard a knock on the door. She wondered who it was. She remembered what mom said. She did not open the door. She said, "Who is it?" + +A voice said, "Hello, little girl. I am your friend. I have a gift for you. Can you open the door and let me in?" + +Anna did not know the voice. She did not think it was a friend. She said, "No, I cannot open the door. Mom said do not open the door to strangers. Go away." + +The voice said, "But I have a gift for you. It is very nice. You will like it. Please open the door." + +Anna said, "No, thank you. I do not want your gift. I have my own gift. I drew a picture for mom. It is very nice. She will like it. Please go away." + +The voice said, "Oh, you are a gifted girl. You can draw very well. Can I see your picture? Maybe I can trade my gift for your picture." + +Anna said, "No, you cannot see my picture. It is for mom. It is not for trade. Please go away and leave me alone." + +The voice said, "OK, OK. I will go away. But you are missing a great gift. Goodbye, gifted girl." + +Anna heard the voice go away. She was glad. She did not like the voice. She did not trust the voice.

She said, "Anna, this is a beautiful picture. Thank you for your gift. You are a gifted girl. I love you." + +Anna said, "I love you, too, mom. I drew this picture for you. I minded the house and did not open the door. There was a voice that wanted to give me a gift, but I said no." + +Mom said, "You did very well, Anna. You were smart and brave. You did not open the door to strangers. You listened to my message. I am very proud of you." + +Mom hugged Anna and kissed her. Anna hugged mom and kissed her. They were very happy. They hung the picture on the wall. It was a very nice picture. It was a very nice gift. +Tom and Anna are playing in the garden. They like to run and jump and make noise. They see some big clouds in the sky. They are dark and grey. + +"Look, Tom, clouds!" Anna says. "Maybe it will rain soon." + +"I like rain," Tom says. "Rain makes puddles. Puddles are fun to splash in." + +They keep playing until they hear a loud sound. It is thunder. Then they feel some drops on their heads. It is rain. + +"Quick, Anna, let's go inside!" Tom says. "Rain is fun, but thunder is scary." + +They run to the house and find their mom. She is in the kitchen. She has made some soup and bread for dinner. + +"Hello, my little ones," mom says. "You are wet and cold. Come and have some yummy soup and bread. It will warm you up." + +Tom and Anna sit at the table and eat their dinner. They like the soup and bread. They are yummy. They tell mom about their play and the rain and the thunder. + +Mom smiles and hugs them. She says, "I'm glad you had fun, but I'm also glad you are safe and dry. Rain is good, but thunder can be dangerous. You should always come inside when you hear thunder." + +Tom and Anna nod. They understand. They love mom and they love rain. But they love evening more. Evening is when they have yummy dinner and cozy cuddles. Evening is the best. +Lily and Sam are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big slide. They want to go on the slide. + +"Let's race to the slide!" Sam says. He runs fast. Lily runs fast too. They both want to be first. + +But Sam is faster. He gets to the slide before Lily. He climbs up the ladder. He slides down. He laughs. + +Lily is sad. She wanted to be first. She gets to the slide after Sam. She climbs up the ladder. She slides down. She does not laugh. + +Sam sees that Lily is sad. He feels sorry. He likes Lily. He wants to make her happy. + +"Hey, Lily, I like your blouse. It is pink and pretty. Do you want to race again?" Sam says. + +Lily looks at Sam. She sees that he is nice. She likes Sam. She wants to have fun. + +"Okay, Sam, let's race again. But this time, you have to count to three before you run. Deal?" Lily says. + +"Deal!" Sam says. He smiles. Lily smiles too. + +They race again. They count to three. They run fast. They both get to the slide at the same time. They climb up the ladder. They slide down. They laugh. They are happy. They are friends. +Anna liked to sort her toys by color. She had a big box of toys and she put the red ones in one corner, the blue ones in another, the yellow ones in a third, and so on. She was very good at sorting and she felt happy when she saw her toys in neat piles. + +But one night, she had a nightmare. She dreamed that a big monster came and mixed up all her toys. He threw them in the air and laughed as they fell in a mess. He said he liked to make things ugly and cheap. Anna was scared and sad. She tried to sort her toys again, but the monster kept messing them up. She cried and cried. + +She woke up and saw that it was dark. She heard a noise and thought it was the monster. She screamed and ran to her mom and dad's room. They hugged her and told her it was just a bad dream. They said there was no monster and her toys were safe. They took her to her room and turned on the light. She saw that her toys were still in their places, just as she had sorted them. She felt relieved and happy. She thanked her mom and dad and gave them a kiss. They tucked her in and said good night. She closed her eyes and dreamed of rainbows and flowers. +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big box under a tree. It had shiny paper and a bow on it. + +"Wow, look at that!" Lily said. "Someone left a present here. I wonder what is inside." + +"Maybe it is for us," Ben said. "Let's open it and see." + +They ran to the box and tried to pull the paper off. But it was too hard. The paper was wrapped very tight. They could not see what was in the box. + +"Maybe we need something to cut it," Lily said. "Do you have scissors?" + +"No, I don't," Ben said. "But I have a clever idea. We can use this stick. It is sharp and strong." + +He picked up a stick from the ground and poked the paper with it. He made a small hole. He poked again and again. He made the hole bigger and bigger. + +"Stop, Ben, stop!" Lily said. "You are ruining the present. What if it is not for us? What if it is for someone else? They will be sad and angry." + +"I don't care," Ben said. "I want to see what is inside. It is mine now. Go away." + +He pushed Lily away and kept poking the paper. He tore it off and opened the box. He looked inside and gasped. + +"What is it? What is it?" Lily asked. She came closer and looked too. She gasped as well. + +Inside the box was a big cake. It had white frosting and colorful sprinkles. It looked yummy and sweet. But it also had a note on it. It said: "Happy birthday, Sam. Love, Mom and Dad." + +"Oh no," Lily said. "We made a big mistake. This is not our present. This is for Sam. He is our friend. He lives next door. Today is his birthday. We forgot." + +Ben felt bad. He looked at the cake. It had holes and crumbs and paper on it. It was ruined. He looked at Lily. She had tears in her eyes. + +"I'm sorry, Lily," he said. "I was selfish and greedy. I should have listened to you. You were right. We should not have opened the present. We should have left it alone. What can we do now?" + +Lily thought for a moment. She had a clever idea too. + +"I know," she said. "We can wrap the cake again. We can use this paper. It has flowers and butterflies on it. It is pretty. We can use this ribbon. It has stars and hearts on it. It is shiny. We can make a new bow. We can write a new note. We can say: "Happy birthday, Sam. We are sorry. We love you. From, Lily and Ben." + +They worked together. They wrapped the cake again. They made it look nice. They wrote the note. They put the box under the tree. They hoped Sam would like it. + +They ran to Sam's house. They knocked on the door. Sam opened it. He smiled when he saw them. + +"Hi, Lily. Hi, Ben. Come in. It's my birthday. I have balloons and games and music. Do you want to join me?" + +"Yes, please," Lily and Ben said. "But first, we have something to tell you. We have a present for you. It is under the tree in the park. We made it for you. We hope you like it." + +They hugged Sam and wished him a happy birthday. They went with him to the park. They watched him open the present. They saw him smile and laugh. They saw him share the cake with them. They saw him read the note. They saw him hug them and thank them. + +They felt happy and proud. They learned a lesson. They were sorry and they were clever. They were good friends. +Tim and Liz are playing in the kitchen. They want to make a cake for Mom. They have a big bowl, some flour, some eggs, some milk and some sugar. They also have a spoon to stir. + +"Can you stir the flour and the eggs, Liz?" Tim asks. + +"OK, Tim. I like to stir. Stir, stir, stir," Liz says. She moves the spoon around the bowl. The flour and the eggs become yellow and sticky. + +"Good job, Liz. Now we need to add some milk and some sugar. Can you pour them in the bowl?" Tim says. + +"OK, Tim. I can pour. Pour, pour, pour," Liz says. She holds the milk carton and the sugar jar. She pours some milk and some sugar in the bowl. The yellow and sticky mix becomes white and sweet. + +"Good job, Liz. Now we need to stir again. Can you help me stir?" Tim says. + +"OK, Tim. I can help you stir. Stir, stir, stir," Liz says. She and Tim hold the spoon together. They stir the white and sweet mix. It becomes smooth and creamy. + +"Good job, Liz and Tim. You made a cake mix. Now we need to bake it in the oven," Mom says. She comes into the kitchen. She sees the bowl and the spoon. She smiles. + +"Hi, Mom. We made a cake for you. Do you like it?" Tim and Liz say. + +"Wow, you made a cake for me. That's so sweet of you. I love it. Thank you, Tim and Liz," Mom says. She hugs them. She takes the bowl and the spoon. She pours the cake mix into a pan. She puts the pan in the oven. She turns on the oven. She sets the timer. + +"Can we watch the cake bake, Mom?" Tim and Liz ask. + +"Sure, you can watch the cake bake. But be careful. The oven is hot. Don't touch it. And don't open the door. The cake needs to stay inside until it is done," Mom says. + +"OK, Mom. We will be careful. We will not touch the oven. We will not open the door. We will wait for the cake," Tim and Liz say. + +They sit on the floor. They watch the oven. They see the cake rise. They smell the cake. It smells yummy. + +"Look, Tim. The cake is getting bigger. And it is turning brown. And it has some gray spots. What are the gray spots, Tim?" Liz asks. + +"The gray spots are the lock, Liz. The lock is the metal thing that keeps the door closed. The lock is gray. The lock is good. The lock helps the cake bake. The lock is our friend," Tim says. + +"Oh, I see. The lock is the lock. The lock is gray. The lock is good. The lock is our friend. Thank you, lock," Liz says. + +They smile. They wait for the timer to ring. They wait for the cake to be done. They wait to eat the cake. They are happy. They love Mom. They love cake. They love lock. +Lily and Tom were friends who liked to play at the park. They liked to swing, run and slide on the big slide. One day, they saw a cake on a table near the slide. It was a big cake with pink frosting and sprinkles. It looked yummy. + +"Who do you think the cake is for?" Lily asked Tom. + +"I don't know. Maybe it is for a birthday party," Tom said. + +"Can we have some?" Lily wondered. + +Tom looked around. He did not see anyone near the cake. He felt hungry. + +"Maybe we can have a little bit. No one will notice," he said. + +He walked to the table and took a knife. He cut a small piece of cake and gave it to Lily. He cut another piece for himself. They ate the cake. It was sweet and soft. + +They heard a voice behind them. It was a woman. She looked angry. + +"Hey, what are you doing? That is my cake! I made it for my daughter's birthday! How dare you steal it!" she shouted. + +Lily and Tom felt scared. They dropped the cake and ran away. They ran to the slide and slid down. They hoped the woman would not catch them. + +They ran to their moms, who were sitting on a bench. They told them what happened. Their moms looked worried. + +"That was very wrong of you. You should not take things that are not yours. You should say sorry to the woman and her daughter. You hurt their feelings and ruined their cake," their moms said. + +Lily and Tom felt sorry. They knew they did a bad thing. They walked back to the woman and her daughter. They said sorry and gave them a hug. The woman and her daughter forgave them. They invited them to join the party and share the cake. + +Lily and Tom learned a lesson. They learned to respect other people's things and to be honest. They also learned to be kind and make new friends. They had fun at the party and enjoyed the cake. They thanked the woman and her daughter for being nice to them. They promised to never steal again. +Ben and Mia were playing in the snow. They made a big snowman with a hat and a scarf. They gave him a carrot nose and two rocks for eyes. + +"Look, our snowman is happy!" Mia said. + +"Yes, he is. But he will be cold soon. Winter is very cold and dry. We need to load him with more snow to keep him warm," Ben said. + +They ran to get more snow. They rolled big balls of snow and piled them around the snowman. They made him a snow house and a snow bed. + +"There, now he is cozy and snug. He can sleep in his snow house until spring," Ben said. + +"Good night, snowman. We will come back to play with you tomorrow," Mia said. + +They waved to the snowman and went inside. They drank hot cocoa and ate cookies. They were happy and warm. They liked winter, but they also liked their cozy home. +Tom and Anna are twins. They like to play in the park with their ball. But today, they have a problem. A big dog is in the park. The dog likes to chase the ball. He runs very fast and barks very loud. + +"Go away, dog!" Tom shouts. He raises his arm and throws the ball far away. He hopes the dog will follow the ball and leave them alone. + +But the dog does not follow the ball. He runs to Tom and bites his arm. Tom feels a lot of pain. He cries and falls to the ground. + +"Help, help!" Anna screams. She runs to Tom and hugs him. She is very scared and sad. She does not know what to do. + +A man hears the noise and comes to the park. He sees the dog and the twins. He is the dog's owner. He is not an ordinary man. He is a vet. He knows how to help animals and people. + +"Sorry, sorry!" the man says. He grabs the dog and puts a leash on him. He says the dog is not bad, but he is not trained. He says he will teach the dog to be nice. + +He also looks at Tom's arm. He says it is not a big bite, but it needs a bandage. He takes out a first aid kit from his car and puts a bandage on Tom's arm. He says it will heal soon and it will not hurt anymore. + +"Thank you, thank you!" Tom and Anna say. They are still scared, but they feel better. They say they are sorry for throwing the ball at the dog. They say they will be more careful next time. + +The man smiles and says it is okay. He says he is sorry for his dog's behavior. He says he will be more careful too. He says he will take the dog to a trainer and make him a good dog. + +He gives the twins a lollipop and their ball. He says goodbye and drives away with his dog. Tom and Anna wave at him and say goodbye too. They are happy to have their ball back. They decide to play somewhere else, away from the dog. They hope the dog will be nice someday. They hope they will not have more pain. They hope they will have more fun. +Tom and Lily liked to watch fireworks. They liked the big bangs and the bright colors in the sky. But they did not like to wait for them. They wanted to see them now. + +One day, they found a box of fireworks in the garage. They thought it was a good idea to take some and play with them. They did not tell their mom or dad. They were very sneaky. + +They went to the backyard and lit a firework. It made a loud noise and a spark. They were scared and happy at the same time. They lit another one and another one. They did not see the dry grass and the fence. + +Lily was bossy. She wanted to light the biggest firework. She said it was hers and Tom could not touch it. Tom was angry. He wanted to light it too. He said it was not fair. They fought over the firework. + +They did not hear their mom and dad coming. They did not see the smoke and the flames. They did not know they were in trouble. They only cared about the firework. + +Mom and dad saw the fire and the fireworks. They were very mad and very scared. They ran to the backyard and grabbed Tom and Lily. They put out the fire and the fireworks. They hugged them and scolded them. + +They said fireworks were dangerous and not toys. They said they could have hurt themselves or burned the house. They said they were very naughty and very foolish. They said they had to learn to share and to listen. + +Tom and Lily were very sorry and very sad. They said they were sorry and they loved mom and dad. They said they learned their lesson and they would never do it again. + +Mom and dad said they loved them too and they forgave them.

They said they would be good and smart. They said they would not be sneaky and bossy. They hugged mom and dad and each other. They were happy and grateful. +Tom was a boy who liked to use magic. He had a magic wand that he found in the park. He could make things change with his wand. He could make his toys bigger or smaller. He could make his cat talk. He could make his mom happy or sad. + +One day, Tom was bored. He wanted to use his magic to have fun. He saw his sister, Anna, playing with her dolls. He thought it would be funny to use his magic on her dolls. He pointed his wand at them and said, "Dolls, be miserable!" + +Anna's dolls suddenly looked very sad. They cried and moaned. They said they did not want to play anymore. They said they hated Anna. Anna was shocked and scared. She ran to her mom and told her what happened. + +Mom was angry. She took Tom's wand and said, "Tom, you are very naughty. You should not use your magic to hurt others. You should use your magic to help others. You made your sister and her dolls miserable. How would you feel if someone did that to you?" + +Tom felt sorry. He realized he was wrong. He said, "Mom, I am sorry. I did not mean to make Anna and her dolls miserable. I just wanted to have fun. Can I have my wand back? I want to make them happy again." + +Mom said, "Tom, you can have your wand back, but only if you promise to use your magic wisely. You have to say sorry to Anna and her dolls. You have to make them smile and laugh. You have to be kind and gentle. Do you understand?" + +Tom nodded. He said, "I understand, Mom. I promise to use my magic wisely. I love Anna and her dolls. I want to make them happy." He took his wand and went to Anna's room. He hugged Anna and said, "Anna, I am sorry. I was bad. I want to be your friend. Can I play with you and your dolls?" + +Anna smiled. She said, "Tom, I forgive you. You are my brother. I want to be your friend. You can play with me and my dolls." She gave him a doll and said, "This is Lily. She is very nice. She likes to use magic too. She can make flowers grow." + +Tom smiled. He said, "This is Max. He is very brave. He likes to use magic too. He can make stars shine." He pointed his wand at the doll and said, "Max, be happy!" + +The doll smiled. He said, "Thank you, Tom. You are very kind. You have a good magic. You can make people happy." He pointed his wand at the window and said, "Look, I made a star for you. It is bright and beautiful. It is a magic star." + +Tom and Anna looked at the window. They saw a star twinkling in the sky. They clapped and cheered. They played with their dolls and their magic. They were happy. They forgot about being bored. They forgot about being miserable. They only remembered being friends. +One day, Anna and her mom went to the park. Anna liked the park because it had many flowers, birds and swings. She wanted to play on the swings, but her mom said they had to walk first. + +"Why do we have to walk, mom?" Anna asked. + +"Because walking is good for us, Anna. It makes us healthy and happy. And we can see many things on the way," her mom said. + +Anna and her mom walked along the path. They saw a big tree, a pond, a bridge and a bench. The bench was attractive. It was painted red and had a cushion on it. Anna wanted to sit on the bench, but her mom said they had to keep walking. + +"Why can't we sit on the bench, mom?" Anna asked. + +"Because the bench is not ours, Anna. It belongs to someone else. We have to respect other people's things. And we can find another place to rest later," her mom said. + +Anna and her mom walked some more. They saw a dog, a squirrel, a fountain and a slide. The slide was attractive. It was shiny and had a curve on it. Anna wanted to go on the slide, but her mom said they had to finish walking. + +"Why can't we go on the slide, mom?" Anna asked. + +"Because the slide is for children, Anna. And we are not children. We are grown-ups. We have to act our age. And we can have fun in other ways," her mom said. + +Anna and her mom walked until they reached the end of the park. They saw a gate, a sign, a car and a man. The man was attractive. He had a smile, a hat and a guitar. He was playing a song on the guitar. Anna wanted to listen to the song, but her mom said they had to go home. + +"Why can't we listen to the song, mom?" Anna asked. + +"Because the song is not for us, Anna. It is for the man and his friends. We have to mind our own business. And we can hear music at home," her mom said. + +Anna and her mom left the park. Anna was sad. She felt like she missed all the fun things in the park. She wished her mom would let her enjoy them. + +The next day, Anna and her dad went to the park. Anna hoped her dad would be different from her mom. She hoped he would let her play on the swings, sit on the bench, go on the slide and listen to the song. + +But her dad was the same as her mom. He said they had to walk, walk, walk. He said they had to be healthy, happy, respectful, grown-up and mind their own business. He said they had to go home, home, home. + +Anna was sad again. She felt like she missed all the fun things in the park again. She wished her dad would let her enjoy them. + +The next day, Anna and her grandma went to the park. Anna did not expect much from her grandma. She thought her grandma would be like her mom and dad. She thought her grandma would make her walk, walk, walk. + +But her grandma was different from her mom and dad. She said they could do whatever they wanted. She said they could be playful, curious, friendly, young and adventurous. She said they could stay as long as they liked. + +Anna was happy. She felt like she saw all the fun things in the park for the first time. She played on the swings, sat on the bench, went on the slide and listened to the song. She had a lot of fun with her grandma. + +The moral of the story is: Sometimes, it is good to walk, walk, walk. But sometimes, it is better to stop, look and enjoy. +Lily and Ben were playing in the hut. They liked the hut. It was big and cozy. They had a lot of toys and books in the hut. + +"Look, Lily, I can tie my shoes!" Ben said. He showed Lily his shoes. He had tied the laces in a knot. + +"Wow, Ben, you are so smart!" Lily said. She clapped her hands. She wanted to tie her shoes too. But she did not know how. + +"Can you teach me, Ben?" Lily asked. She looked at Ben with big eyes. + +"Sure, Lily, I can teach you. It is easy. You just make two loops and cross them and pull them." Ben said. He took Lily's shoes and showed her how to tie them. + +Lily watched Ben carefully. She tried to do the same. She made two loops and crossed them and pulled them. But her laces were too long. They dragged on the floor. + +"Oh no, Lily, your laces are too long. You will trip and fall." Ben said. He frowned. + +"What can we do, Ben?" Lily asked. She was sad. + +"Don't worry, Lily, I have an idea. We can cut your laces and make them shorter." Ben said. He smiled. + +"Cut my laces? How?" Lily asked. + +"We can use the scissors. They are in the hut. Come on, Lily, let's go." Ben said. He took Lily's hand and led her to the hut. + +They found the scissors in the hut. They were big and shiny. Ben cut Lily's laces and made them shorter. Lily tied her shoes again. They fit perfectly. + +"Yay, Lily, you did it! You can tie your shoes!" Ben said.

Today, mom is making a special dish with cauliflower. Mia has never seen cauliflower before. It is white and round, like a big flower. + +"Mom, what is this?" Mia asks, pointing to the cauliflower. + +"This is cauliflower, Mia. It is a vegetable that grows in the ground. We are going to wrap it in cheese and bake it in the oven. Do you want to help me?" mom says. + +"Yes, please!" Mia says. She loves cheese. Mom cuts the cauliflower into small pieces and puts them in a bowl. She gives Mia a spoon and a cup of cheese. "Now, you can sprinkle some cheese on each piece of cauliflower, like this," mom shows her. + +Mia tries to do the same. She scoops some cheese with her spoon and drops it on the cauliflower. Some cheese falls on the table, but Mia does not mind. She thinks it is fun. She wraps each piece of cauliflower with cheese, until the bowl is empty. + +"Good job, Mia! You are very graceful with your spoon. Now, we can put the cauliflower in a baking dish and put it in the oven," mom says. She helps Mia carry the bowl to the counter. She pours the cauliflower and cheese into a baking dish and covers it with foil. She puts it in the oven and sets the timer. + +"Mom, can I taste it?" Mia asks. + +"Not yet, Mia. We have to wait until it is cooked. It will be hot and yummy. Do you want to help me set the table?" mom says. + +"OK, mom. I can do that," Mia says. She follows mom to the dining room. She helps her put the plates, forks, and napkins on the table. She is proud of herself. She can't wait to eat the cauliflower and cheese. She thinks it will be delicious. +Lily and Max were helping Mommy to decorate the tree for Christmas. They had many ornaments to hang on the branches.

Mommy said. + +Mommy hugged Lily and Max and said, "You two are such good helpers. We are almost finished with the tree. Do you want to put the star on top?" + +Lily and Max nodded excitedly. They loved the star on top. It was the most special ornament. Mommy lifted them up and let them place the star on the highest point of the tree. It sparkled and shone. + +"Wow, Mommy, it's so pretty!" Lily said. + +"Yeah, Mommy, it's so cool!" Max said. + +Mommy put them down and said, "You're right, it's very pretty and cool. You did a wonderful job. The tree is finished. Do you know what that means?" + +Lily and Max looked at each other and said, "Cookies!" + +Mommy laughed and said, "Yes, cookies!
