The popular bear did not want to share the meat, so he lied and said he didn't have any. + +The other bear became very sad. He went away feeling very lonely and hurt. + +The moral of the story is that it is wrong to lie and it is always better to be kind.

"What do you dare me to do?" + +Ben looked around and saw a pair of scissors on the table. He had an idea. "I dare you to cut your hair with the scissors!" he said. + +Lily gasped. She loved her long, brown hair. It was soft and shiny and made her feel graceful. She did not want to cut it. But she also did not want to lose the game. She was brave. + +"Fine!" she said. "But you have to do something too. I dare you to eat a spoonful of mustard!" + +Ben made a face. He hated mustard. It was yellow and sour and made him cough. He did not want to eat it.

She has a yellow bus with many windows. + +"Let's pretend there is a fire in that building!" Tom says. He points to a book with a green cover. + +"OK, Tom, let's go!" Lily says. They drive their fire truck and bus to the building. They pretend to spray water and save people. + +"Help, help!" Tom says.

They look for something else to do. Something quiet. Something boring. They hope the rain will stop soon. +Lily and Sam went to the zoo with their mom. They saw many animals, like monkeys, lions, and giraffes. But Lily's favorite animal was the elephant. She liked how big and gray it was, and how it used its long nose to spray water. + +"Mom, can I stay here and watch the elephant?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, honey, but you have to remain with Sam. Don't go anywhere else, okay?" Mom said. + +"Okay, Mom. Come on, Sam, let's sit on this bench and see what the elephant does." Lily said. + +Sam followed Lily to the bench. He was not as interested in the elephant as Lily was. He wanted to see the penguins and the bears. He looked around and saw a sign that said "Penguin Pool". + +"Hey, Lily, look, there are penguins over there. Let's go see them." Sam said. + +"No, Sam, we have to remain here. Mom said so. And I like the elephant more. It's so big and cool." Lily said. + +"But I want to see the penguins. They are cute and funny. And they slide on the ice." Sam said. + +"Sam, please, don't go. The elephant might do something fun. Maybe it will make a loud sound, or wave its ears, or throw a ball." Lily said. + +"Sorry, Lily, but I'm bored of the elephant. I'm going to see the penguins. You can come with me if you want." Sam said. + +He got up from the bench and ran towards the penguin pool. Lily was sad and angry. She wanted Sam to remain with her and watch the elephant. She didn't want to see the penguins. She liked the elephant more. She decided to remain on the bench and hope that Sam would come back soon. She looked at the elephant and smiled. The elephant looked at her and smiled back. It lifted its long nose and sprayed water on Lily. Lily laughed and felt happy. She didn't need Sam to have fun. She had the elephant. +Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her toys. She had a big box of coins that she got from her grandma. She liked to count them and pretend they were treasure. One day, she took some coins to school to show her friends. + +But when she got to school, she saw that her teacher was very angry. He said that someone had taken coins from his desk. He said that whoever did it was very bad and had to say sorry. Lily felt troubled. She did not take the coins from the teacher, but she had coins in her backpack. What if the teacher thought she did it? + +She hid her backpack under her chair and hoped that no one would see it. But when it was time for recess, her friend Ben saw her backpack and opened it.

She said, "No, I did not steal them. They are mine. My grandma gave them to me." + +But no one believed her. They said she was lying and called her a thief. The teacher came and saw the coins. He was very mad. He said, "Lily, how could you do this? You have to give back the coins and go to the principal's office." + +Lily tried to explain, but the teacher did not listen. He took the coins and her backpack and dragged her to the principal's office. Lily felt very sad and scared. She wished she had never brought the coins to school. She wished she had listened to her grandma, who told her to keep them safe at home. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with their scooters in the park. One day, they see a big tree with many leaves. Lily has an idea. + +"Let's play hide and seek with our scooters!" she says to Ben. + +"OK, how do we play?" Ben asks. + +Lily tells him the rules. "One of us counts to ten and the other one hides their scooter behind the tree. Then the one who counts has to find the hidden scooter. If they find it, they win. If they don't, they lose." + +Ben nods. He likes the game. He says, "I will count first. You hide your scooter. Ready, go!" + +Lily runs to the tree with her scooter. She looks for a good spot to hide it. She sees a big hole under the roots. She puts her scooter in the hole and covers it with leaves. She thinks, "Ben will never find it here!" + +Ben counts to ten. He says, "Ready or not, here I come!" He walks to the tree and looks around. He does not see Lily's scooter. He looks behind the trunk, under the branches, and between the flowers. He does not see Lily's scooter. He says, "Where is your scooter, Lily? I can't find it!" + +Lily giggles. She comes out from behind the tree. She says, "My scooter is hidden very well. You lose, Ben!" + +Ben frowns. He says, "That's not fair! You cheated! You can't hide your scooter in a hole!" + +Lily says, "Yes, I can! That's part of the game! You have to look everywhere!" + +Ben says, "No, you don't! That's too hard! You have to hide your scooter where I can see it!" + +Lily and Ben start to argue. They forget to have fun. They forget to be friends. They forget to share their scooters. +Sam and Mia are friends. They like to play together. One day, they go to the park with their moms. They see a big temple in the park. It is bright and shiny. + +"Wow, look at that!" Sam says. "It is so pretty!" + +"Can we go inside?" Mia asks. "I want to see more." + +Their moms say yes. They walk to the temple. They see a door.

You are not allowed to touch anything. Go away!" + +Sam and Mia are scared. They run to the door. They find their moms. They hug them. + +"Sorry, sir," their moms say. "They are just children. They don't know better." + +The temple keeper is still angry. He says they have to leave. He says they have to respect the temple. + +Sam and Mia say sorry too. They don't want to make him mad. They don't want to start trouble. They leave the temple. They go back to the park. They play with their toys. They forget about the temple. They are happy again. +Lily and Tom were having dinner with their mom and dad. They ate some chicken, some rice, and some peas. Lily and Tom did not like peas, but they ate them anyway. They wanted to have dessert after dinner. + +"Mom, can we have dessert?" Lily asked. + +"What do you say?" Mom asked. + +"Please," Lily said. + +"Me too, please," Tom said. + +Mom smiled. "Okay, you can have dessert. But you have to wait a little bit. I have a surprise for you." + +Lily and Tom were excited. They wondered what the surprise was. Maybe it was cake, or ice cream, or cookies. They waited patiently for Mom to bring the dessert. + +Mom came back with a big tray. She put it on the table and lifted the cover. Lily and Tom gasped. On the tray, there were four bowls of peas. + +"Surprise!" Mom said. "You get to have more peas for dessert. Isn't that funny?" + +Lily and Tom did not think it was funny. They thought it was mean. They did not want to eat more peas. They wanted to have something sweet and yummy. They looked at Mom and Dad. Mom and Dad were laughing. + +Lily and Tom started to cry.

One day, they want to go to the pool. They ask their moms if they can go. + +"Yes, you can go, but be careful," Sara's mom says. "The pool is big and deep. You need to wear your floaties and stay near the edge." + +"OK, mom, we will," Sara says. She puts on her pink floaties and her sun hat. Ben puts on his blue floaties and his sunglasses. They hold hands and walk to the pool. + +At the pool, they see many people. Some are swimming, some are splashing, some are sunbathing. Sara and Ben find a spot near the edge. They sit on the steps and dip their feet in the water. + +"Look, Sara, a duck!" Ben says. He points to a brown duck that is swimming in the pool. "Can we touch it?" + +"No, Ben, we can't," Sara says. "The duck is not a toy. It is a living thing. It might bite us or get scared. We should leave it alone." + +"But I want to touch it," Ben says. He stands up and walks towards the duck. He reaches out his hand to grab it. + +"Ben, no, stop!" Sara says. She tries to pull him back, but he is too fast. He gets close to the duck and tries to catch it. + +The duck does not like that. It quacks loudly and flaps its wings. It pecks Ben's hand and splashes water in his face. Ben cries out and lets go of the duck. He falls into the water and sinks. + +Sara screams and runs to get help. She sees a lifeguard and tells him what happened. The lifeguard jumps into the pool and pulls Ben out. He checks if Ben is OK and gives him a towel. + +"Are you OK, Ben?" Sara asks. She is scared and sorry. + +"I'm OK, Sara," Ben says. He is wet and sore. "But that was bad. The duck was bad. It hurt me and made me fall." + +"I'm sorry, Ben," Sara says. "But you should not have touched the duck. You should have listened to me and your mom. The pool is not a place to play with ducks. It is a place to swim and be safe." + +"I know, Sara," Ben says. "I was wrong. I learned my lesson. Next time, I will be careful and listen to you and my mom. Can we still be friends?" + +"Of course, Ben," Sara says. She hugs him and smiles. "We are always friends. Come on, let's go home and have some ice cream." + +They hold hands and walk back to their moms. They say sorry and thank you to the lifeguard and the duck. They leave the pool and go home.

One day, they went to the toy store with their mom. They saw many toys that they wanted. + +"Look, mom, a big doll house!" Lily said. "Can I have it, please?" + +"Look, mom, a fast car!" Ben said. "Can I have it, please?" + +Mom shook her head. "I'm sorry, my loves, but those toys are too expensive. We can only buy one small toy each." + +Lily and Ben felt sad. They wished they had more money to buy the toys they liked. They walked around the store and looked for small toys. + +They saw a shelf with books. They liked books. They picked up a book each. The books had colorful pictures and stories. + +"Look, mom, a book about princesses!" Lily said. + +"Look, mom, a book about dinosaurs!" Ben said. + +Mom smiled. "Those are good choices, my loves. Books are not expensive, but they are very valuable. They can teach you many things and make you happy." + +Lily and Ben felt happy. They hugged their mom and thanked her. They paid for the books and went home. They read the books together and had fun. They forgot about the expensive toys. They realized that books were better than toys. They made a wish that they would always have books to read. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play with their toys and draw pictures. One day, they decided to draw a big dragon with many colors. + +"What color do you want the dragon to be?" Lily asked Ben. + +"I want it to be green, like the grass," Ben said. + +"I want it to be purple, like the flowers," Lily said. + +They looked at each other and frowned. They did not agree on the color of the dragon. + +They began to discuss. They said why they liked their color and why the other color was not good. They raised their voices and made faces. + +But then they stopped. They remembered that they were best friends. They did not want to fight over a color. + +They looked at their crayons and had an idea. They smiled and said sorry to each other. + +"Why don't we make the dragon both green and purple?" Lily suggested. + +"That sounds good. Then it will be a mighty dragon with two colors," Ben agreed. + +They nodded and started to draw. They made the dragon's body green and its wings purple. They added some yellow for the fire and some blue for the sky. They were happy with their picture. They showed it to their mom and dad, who praised them for their creativity and cooperation. + +They hugged each other and said, "We are best friends. We like all the colors." +Sara and Tom are playing in the kitchen. They see a big jar of sugar on the shelf. Sara wants to taste it. She climbs on a chair and reaches for the jar. Tom says, "No, Sara, that is not for us. That is for Mommy to make cake. Put it back." + +But Sara does not listen. She opens the jar and takes a big spoon of sugar. She puts it in her mouth. It is very sweet and sticky. She likes it. She smiles and says, "Mmm, yummy!" + +Tom is angry. He wants some sugar too. He tries to grab the spoon from Sara. They pull and tug. The jar falls from the shelf. It breaks on the floor. Sugar spills everywhere. It makes a big mess. + +Mommy hears the noise. She comes to the kitchen. She sees the broken jar and the sugar. She sees Sara and Tom with sugar on their faces and hands. She is very mad. She says, "What have you done? You are naughty children. You wasted the sugar. You made a mess. You could have hurt yourselves. Go to your room. Now!" + +She slaps their hands. It hurts. They cry. They say, "Sorry, Mommy, sorry." They run to their room. They are sad. They wish they had not taken the sugar. + +Mommy cleans the kitchen. She is still mad. But she also loves Sara and Tom. She knows they are young and curious. She thinks of a way to teach them a lesson. She makes a cake. But she does not use sugar. She uses salt. It is yellow and looks like sugar. But it tastes very bad. + +She brings the cake to their room. She says, "I made you a cake. Do you want some?" Sara and Tom are surprised. They think Mommy is not mad anymore. They think the cake is sweet and yummy. They say, "Yes, please, Mommy, yes." + +They take a bite of the cake. They spit it out. It is salty and bitter. They do not like it. They say, "Yuck, Mommy, yuck. This is not cake. This is bad." + +Mommy says, "This is what happens when you take things that are not yours. This is what sugar tastes like when you use too much. Do you understand?" + +Sara and Tom nod. They understand. They say, "We are sorry, Mommy, we are sorry. We will not take sugar again. We will ask you first. We will be good." + +Mommy hugs them. She says, "I forgive you, Sara and Tom. I love you. But next time, listen to me. And listen to each other. OK?" + +Sara and Tom say, "OK, Mommy, OK." They hug her back. They love her. They hope she will make a real cake soon. A sweet and yummy cake. With sugar. But not too much. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the field near their homes. The field has many flowers and trees and birds. Anna and Ben run and laugh and chase each other in the field. + +One day, they see a cute rabbit in the field. The rabbit has white fur and long ears and a pink nose. Anna and Ben want to pet the rabbit. They run after the rabbit, but the rabbit is fast and hops away. + +"Wait, rabbit, wait!" Anna says. "We want to be your friends!" + +"Come back, rabbit, come back!" Ben says. "We have carrots for you!" + +The rabbit pauses and looks at Anna and Ben. It sees the carrots in their hands. It likes carrots. It hops closer to Anna and Ben, but still keeps some distance. + +"Hello, rabbit," Anna says softly. "We are Anna and Ben. What is your name?" + +The rabbit does not answer. It does not know how to talk. It sniffs the carrots and nibbles on one. It is yummy. + +"Can we pet you, rabbit?" Ben asks gently. "You are so cute and soft." + +The rabbit does not mind. It lets Anna and Ben touch its fur and ears and nose. It feels nice. Anna and Ben smile and giggle. They make a new friend in the field. +Sam and Tom are friends. They like to play at the zoo. They see many animals. They see a lion, a monkey, a giraffe and a seal. + +The seal is fat and gray. He has a ball on his nose. He can clap his flippers. He can splash water. Sam and Tom think he is funny. + +"Let's plan a game with the seal," Sam says. "We can throw him fish and he can catch them." + +"Good idea," Tom says. "But we need to be careful. The zookeeper might see us." + +They look around. They do not see the zookeeper. They see a bucket of fish. They take some fish and run to the seal. + +"Hey, seal, do you want to play?" Sam asks. He throws a fish to the seal. + +The seal sees the fish. He jumps and catches it. He makes a loud noise. He likes the game. + +"Here, have another one," Tom says. He throws another fish to the seal. + +The seal catches it too. He claps his flippers. He splashes water. He makes more noise. + +Sam and Tom laugh. They have fun with the seal. They do not see the zookeeper coming. + +"Hey, you two, what are you doing?" the zookeeper asks. He is angry. "You are not supposed to feed the seal. He is already fat enough. Give me the bucket of fish." + +Sam and Tom are scared. They drop the bucket of fish. They say sorry to the zookeeper. + +The zookeeper takes the bucket of fish. He tells them to leave. He feeds the seal the rest of the fish. + +The seal is happy. He has a full belly. He winks at Sam and Tom. He thanks them for the game. +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play in the yard. They had a modest house with a big tree and a swing. One day, they saw a shiny automobile parked in front of their house. It was red and had four doors and a horn. + +"Wow, look at that automobile!" Lily said. "It is so pretty and big. I want to sit in it and pretend to drive." + +"Me too!" Ben said. "Let's go and see if we can open the door." + +They ran to the automobile and tried to pull the handle. But the door was locked. They tried the other doors, but they were also locked. + +"Who does this automobile belong to?" Lily asked. "Why is it here?" + +"I don't know," Ben said. "Maybe it is someone who came to visit Mom or Dad. Maybe they will let us play with it later." + +They went back to the yard and waited for their parents to come out. They hoped they would permit them to sit in the automobile and honk the horn. + +But soon, a man came out of the house next door. He had a hat and a coat and a suitcase. He walked to the automobile and put his suitcase in the trunk. He opened the door and got in. + +"Hey, mister!" Lily shouted. "Is this your automobile?" + +"Yes, it is," the man said. "Why do you ask?" + +"Can we play with it?" Ben asked. "Can we sit in it and honk the horn?" + +The man shook his head. "No, you can't," he said. "This is my automobile and I need it to go to work. You can't touch it or play with it. It is not a toy." + +Lily and Ben felt sad and angry. They wanted to play with the automobile so badly. They thought it was unfair that the man would not let them. + +"Please, mister, please!" Lily begged. "Just for a little while. We will be careful and not break anything." + +"No, I said no!" the man said. "Now go away and leave me alone. I have to go." + +He started the engine and drove away. Lily and Ben watched him go. They felt like crying. + +They went back to the yard and played with their old toys. They did not have fun. They wished they had a shiny automobile of their own. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play together. Sometimes they watch movies on the TV. Anna likes movies with animals. Ben likes movies with cars. + +One day, Anna and Ben are at Anna's house. Anna's mom says they can watch a movie. She gives them a DVD. It has a picture of a dog and a boy on it. + +"Can we watch this movie?" Anna asks Ben. + +"OK," Ben says. He likes dogs. He thinks they are intelligent. He hopes the dog in the movie can do tricks. + +Anna and Ben sit on the couch. Anna's mom puts the DVD in the TV. The movie starts. The dog and the boy are friends. They go on adventures. They help people. They have fun. + +Anna and Ben like the movie. They laugh and clap. They think the dog and the boy are brave and kind. They wish they had a dog like that. + +When the movie ends, Anna and Ben hug each other. They thank Anna's mom for the movie. + +"That was a good movie," Anna says. + +"Yes, it was," Ben says. "The dog was very intelligent. He could talk and read and drive a car." + +Anna nods. She agrees. She thinks the dog was amazing. She wonders if he is real. + +"Maybe we can find a dog like that someday," she says. + +"Maybe," Ben says. "But for now, we have each other. And we are friends." + +They smile and hold hands. They are happy. They love movies and dogs and friends. +Lila and Ben are at the toy store with their mom. They see a big doll house that they like. It has many rooms and furniture and dolls. They want to play with it. + +"Mom, can we have the doll house?" Lila asks. + +Mom looks at the price tag. It is very high. She shakes her head. + +"No, sweeties, the doll house is too expensive. We cannot buy it today." + +Lila and Ben feel sad. They really want the doll house. + +"Please, mom, please!" Ben begs. + +Mom sighs. She loves her children, but she cannot afford the doll house. + +"Listen, Lila and Ben. I know you like the doll house, but we have to be patient. Maybe we can save some money and buy it later. Or maybe you can ask Santa for it for Christmas. But we cannot get it now. Do you understand?" + +Lila and Ben nod. They understand, but they are still disappointed. + +"Okay, mom. We will be patient. But can we at least look at it for a little while?" Lila asks. + +Mom smiles. She knows they are good children. + +"Sure, you can look at it for a little while. But then we have to go home, okay?" + +"Okay, mom. Thank you!" Lila and Ben say. + +They run to the doll house and tell each other stories about the dolls and their lives. They pretend they are the dolls and have fun. They forget about the price for a moment and enjoy the toy. Mom watches them and feels happy. She hopes they will get the doll house someday. +Lila and Ben like to ride their bikes in the park. They have helmets to keep their heads safe. They have pedals to make their bikes go fast. They have bells to say hello to other people. + +One day, they see a big puddle on the path. Lila wants to go around it, but Ben wants to go through it. He thinks it will be fun to splash the water. + +"Come on, Lila, let's go through the puddle!" Ben says. + +"No, Ben, it's too wet and dirty. We will get our bikes and clothes wet and dirty too. Let's go around it," Lila says. + +But Ben does not listen. He pedals hard and rides into the puddle. He makes a big splash and laughs. But then he feels something cold and wet on his face. He looks up and sees a big cloud. It starts to rain. + +"Oh no, it's raining!" Ben says. "Now I'm wet and cold and dirty. And so is my bike." + +Lila rides up to him. She is dry and clean. She has a big umbrella in her basket. She opens it and covers Ben and his bike with it. + +"Here, Ben, you can share my umbrella. It will keep you and your bike dry," Lila says. + +"Thank you, Lila. You are very kind and smart. And you have a strong umbrella. I'm sorry I did not listen to you. Next time, I will go around the puddle," Ben says. + +They ride back home together, under the umbrella. They ring their bells and say hello to other people. They are happy to be friends. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big car. A man comes out of the car. He has a lot of money. He is rich. + +The man sees Lily and Ben. He smiles. He says, "Hello, kids. Do you want some candy?" He holds out a bag of candy. Lily and Ben love candy. They run to the man. + +The man says, "What are your names?" Lily says, "I am Lily." Ben says, "I am Ben." The man says, "Nice to meet you, Lily and Ben. I am Mr. Fox. Do you want to see my car?" Lily and Ben nod. They like cars. + +Mr. Fox takes them to his car. He opens the door. He says, "Get in, kids. I have more candy inside." Lily and Ben get in the car. They see more candy. They are happy. + +Mr. Fox gets in the car. He closes the door. He locks the door. He starts the car. He drives away. Lily and Ben are scared. They want to go back to the park. They want to see their moms. They cry. They scream. They shake the door. But the door does not open. Mr. Fox laughs. He says, "You are mine now, kids. You will never see your moms again." Lily and Ben are very sad. They wish they did not take the candy. They wish they did not trust Mr. Fox. They wish they knew his name was bad. +Lily was a troubled girl. She did not like to share her toys with her brother Tom. She always wanted to play with his cars and trains, but she never let him touch her dolls and books. One day, Tom had a new toy. It was a shiny red fire truck with a loud siren and a ladder. Lily wanted it very much. + +"Can I play with your fire truck, Tom?" she asked. + +"No, Lily, it is mine. You have your own toys," Tom said. + +"But I like your fire truck. It is so pretty and fun," Lily said. + +"Too bad. You can't have it. Go away," Tom said. + +Lily was angry. She tried to grab the fire truck from Tom, but he held it tight. They pulled and pushed and shouted. Then, Lily bit Tom's thumb. Tom screamed and let go of the fire truck. Lily smiled and ran away with it. + +"Ow, ow, ow! Lily, you are so mean! You hurt me!" Tom cried. + +"Mama, mama, help me! Lily bit me!" he called. + +Mama came and saw Tom's thumb. It was red and swollen. She felt sorry for him. She took him to the bathroom and washed his thumb. She put some cream and a band-aid on it. She gave him a hug and a kiss. + +"There, there, Tom. You will be okay. Lily was very naughty. She should not bite you," Mama said. + +"Mama, can I have my fire truck back?" Tom asked. + +"Of course, Tom. It is your toy. Lily has to give it back to you and say sorry," Mama said. + +She went to find Lily, who was playing with the fire truck in her room. She looked happy and proud. Mama was angry. + +"Lily, what did you do to your brother? You bit his thumb. That is very bad. You made him suffer. You have to give back his fire truck and say sorry," Mama said. + +Lily did not want to do that. She liked the fire truck. She did not care about Tom's thumb. She did not want to say sorry. + +"No, Mama, it is my fire truck. I want it. Tom is a baby. He does not need it," Lily said. + +"Lily, don't be selfish and rude. You have to share and be kind. The fire truck is not yours. It is Tom's. You have to give it back and say sorry, or you will be in trouble," Mama said. + +Lily still did not listen. She held the fire truck and said no. Mama was very angry. She took the fire truck from Lily and gave it back to Tom. She told Lily to go to her bed and stay there until she was ready to say sorry. Lily was sad and mad. She did not like to be in trouble. She did not like to say sorry. She did not like to share. She was a troubled girl. +The boy was very sad. He had no friends to play with. He lived in a big house with his mom and dad, but they were always busy. He felt helpless and lonely. + +One day, he saw a little dog outside his window. The dog was dirty and hungry. It had no collar or tag. The boy felt sorry for the dog. He opened the window and called to the dog. + +"Hey, dog! Come here! I have some food for you!" + +The dog heard the boy and wagged its tail. It ran to the window and jumped inside. The boy gave the dog some bread and milk. The dog ate and drank happily. Then it licked the boy's face and snuggled with him. The boy smiled and hugged the dog. + +"I like you, dog. You are my friend. Can I keep you?" + +The dog barked and wagged its tail again. It nodded its head. The boy was very happy. He had a friend to play with. He felt hopeful and loved. + +He ran to his mom and dad and showed them the dog. He told them how he found the dog and how he wanted to keep it. His mom and dad looked at the dog and the boy. They saw how happy they were together. They agreed to let the boy keep the dog. + +They gave the dog a bath and a name. They called him Spot. They bought him a collar and a tag. They took him to the vet and the park. They played with him and the boy. The boy and the dog were very happy. They were not helpless and lonely anymore.

They have a bad ending. +Lily was a very organized girl. She liked to keep her toys in neat boxes, her books in order, and her clothes in the right drawers. She did not like it when things were messy or out of place. + +One day, Lily's mom told her it was time to take a shower. Lily did not want to take a shower. She wanted to play with her dolls. She said to her mom, "No, I don't want to take a shower. I want to play. Let me play!" + +Her mom said, "Lily, you have to take a shower. You are dirty and sweaty. You need to be clean and fresh. Taking a shower is good for you. Come on, let's go to the bathroom." + +Lily did not listen to her mom. She threw a tantrum. She screamed and cried and kicked. She demanded to play with her dolls. She said, "No, no, no! I want to play! I don't want to take a shower! You can't make me!" + +Her mom was very patient. She tried to calm Lily down. She said, "Lily, please stop crying. I know you love your dolls, but you can play with them later. Taking a shower is not a punishment. It is a fun and relaxing thing to do. You can use your favorite soap and shampoo. You can sing and splash and make bubbles. You can even bring one of your dolls with you. How about that?" + +Lily stopped crying. She thought about what her mom said. She liked the idea of bringing a doll with her. She liked to sing and splash and make bubbles. She realized that taking a shower was not so bad after all. She said to her mom, "Okay, mom. I will take a shower. But can I bring my doll with me?" + +Her mom smiled and nodded. She said, "Of course, you can. Come on, let's go to the bathroom. I will help you wash your hair and dry your body. Then you can put on your pajamas and play with your dolls until bedtime." + +Lily hugged her mom and said, "Thank you, mom. I love you. You are the best mom ever." + +Her mom hugged her back and said, "I love you too, Lily. You are a very good girl. I am proud of you for being organized and for listening to me." + +Lily and her mom went to the bathroom. Lily took a shower with her doll. She sang and splashed and made bubbles. She had a lot of fun. She felt clean and fresh. She was happy. + +The moral of the story is: Taking a shower is not a bad thing. It is good for your health and your mood. You should listen to your parents when they tell you to do something. They know what is best for you. They love you and want you to be happy. +Tim and Mia like to play hide and seek in the garden. They take turns to count and hide. One day, Tim counts to ten and looks for Mia. He sees her pink dress behind a big bush. He runs to the bush and says, "I found you!" + +But Mia does not answer. She does not move. Tim pulls the bush and sees Mia's face. She is crying. She has a red spot on her arm. Tim asks, "What happened? Why are you crying?" + +Mia points to her arm and says, "A bad insect bit me. It hurts a lot. I am miserable." + +Tim feels sorry for Mia. He hugs her and says, "I am sorry. Let me help you. We can go to Mom and she can make it better." + +He takes Mia's hand and they walk to the house. Mom sees them and asks, "What's wrong, my darlings?" + +Tim tells Mom what happened. Mom looks at Mia's arm and says, "Oh, you poor thing. You have a bee sting. Don't worry, I have some cream and ice for that. It will make the pain go away." + +She takes Mia to the kitchen and puts some cream and ice on her arm. She gives her a kiss and a cookie. Mia smiles and says, "Thank you, Mom. You are the best." + +Tim smiles too. He says, "I am glad you are feeling better, Mia. You are my best friend." + +They hug and say, "We love you, Mom." + +Mom hugs them back and says, "I love you too, my sweeties. Now, do you want to play some more?" + +Tim and Mia nod and say, "Yes, please. But no more hiding near the bees." +Tim and Mia are playing with a big rubber ball in the park. They like to push the ball to each other and catch it. Sometimes they push the ball very hard and it bounces away. Then they run after it and laugh. + +One time, Tim pushes the ball so hard that it flies over the fence and lands in the pond. Mia says, "Oh no, Tim! How can we get the ball back?" + +Tim says, "I have an idea. We can use this stick to reach the ball. Come on, Mia, help me." He picks up a long stick and walks to the fence. Mia follows him. + +Tim tries to poke the ball with the stick, but it is too far. He leans over the fence and stretches his arm. Mia holds his legs and says, "Be careful, Tim. Don't fall in the water." + +Tim pokes harder and harder, but the ball does not move. He feels dizzy and loses his balance. He falls over the fence and splashes into the pond. Mia screams, "Tim!" + +Tim is wet and cold, but he is not hurt. He grabs the ball and swims to the edge. Mia helps him out of the water. They hug each other and say, "We did it! We got the ball back!" + +They are happy, but they are also dirty and smelly. They decide to go home and change their clothes. They walk to the gate and see their mom waiting for them. She says, "What happened to you two? You look like ducks!" + +Tim and Mia giggle and say, "We had fun, mom. We played with the rubber ball and we pushed it and we caught it and we poked it and we fell in the pond and we got it back and we are dizzy and we love you!" + +Mom smiles and says, "I love you too, you silly ducks. Come on, let's go home and get dry and warm." She takes their hands and leads them to the car. They put the rubber ball in the trunk and drive away. +Tom and Sue were friends who liked to play together. One day, they found a big box of old things in Tom's basement. They saw many fun things, like hats, books, and toys. But Sue liked a shiny dish the most. It was round and silver, and had a picture of a bird on it. + +"Can I have this dish?" Sue asked Tom. + +"No, it is my grandma's dish. She mailed it to me from far away. She said it is very special and I have to be careful with it," Tom said. + +"But I want it. It is so pretty. Please, Tom, let me have it," Sue begged. + +Tom did not want to share his dish, but he did not want to make Sue sad either. He thought for a while, and then he had an idea. + +"OK, Sue, you can have the dish. But only for one day. Then you have to mail it back to me. Promise?" Tom said. + +Sue was very happy. She promised to mail the dish back to Tom the next day. She took the dish and ran to her house. She put the dish on her table and looked at it. She felt very proud. + +The next day, Sue forgot to mail the dish back to Tom. She was too busy playing with her dolls. She was careless and left the dish on the table. Her little brother saw the dish and thought it was a toy. He grabbed the dish and threw it in the air. The dish fell on the floor and broke into many pieces. + +Sue heard the noise and ran to the table. She saw the broken dish and cried. She knew she had done a bad thing. She had broken Tom's grandma's dish. She had not kept her promise. She had lost her friend. She felt very sorry. +Sara was a tall girl who liked to play in the garden. She had a secret friend who lived in the flowers. Her friend was a fairy with wings and a dress. The fairy's name was Lily. + +One day, Sara was looking for Lily in the garden.

Sara said. "What do you want to play?" + +Lily thought for a moment. "How about hide and seek?" she suggested. "You count to ten and I hide. Then you try to find me." + +"Okay!" Sara agreed. She closed her eyes and started to count. "One, two, three..." + +Lily flew away and hid under a leaf. She giggled softly. She liked to play with Sara. Sara was kind and gentle. + +Sara finished counting and opened her eyes. "Ready or not, here I come!" she shouted. She looked around the garden, trying to spot Lily. She saw a butterfly, a bee, a snail, but no fairy. + +She walked to the other side of the garden, where there was a big tree. She looked up and saw a bird's nest. She wondered if Lily was hiding there. She stretched her arms and tried to reach the nest. But she was not tall enough. + +She heard a laugh behind her. She turned around and saw Lily sitting on a branch. Lily waved at her. + +"Found you!" Sara said. She smiled and clapped her hands. + +Lily flew down and landed on Sara's shoulder. She hugged Sara's cheek. "You are good at finding me!" she said. "You are my best friend!" + +Sara hugged Lily back. "You are my best friend, too!" she said.

They ate and talked and sang. They had a good time at camp. They were happy. +Tom and Anna like to play with their toy cars and trucks. They have many different kinds of equipment, like a crane, a bulldozer, a fire truck and a police car. They pretend to drive them around the room and make noises. + +One day, they see a big truck parked outside their house. It has a sign that says "Dangerous". Tom and Anna are curious. They want to see what is inside the truck. + +They sneak out of the house and climb into the truck. They find a lot of buttons and levers and wires. They think it looks fun. They start to push and pull and twist them. + +Suddenly, the truck starts to move. It makes a loud noise and smoke comes out of the pipe. Tom and Anna are scared. They don't know how to stop the truck. They scream for help. + +Their mom hears them and runs outside. She sees the truck rolling down the street. She is very worried. She calls the police and the firemen. They come quickly and stop the truck. They take Tom and Anna out of the truck and check if they are hurt. + +Mom is very angry and sad. She hugs Tom and Anna and tells them they were very naughty and foolish. She says they could have been hurt or hurt someone else. She says they should never play with dangerous equipment.

They say they love mom and they love their toy cars and trucks. Mom says she loves them too and she is glad they are safe. She says they have to go inside and have a time out. Tom and Anna agree. They go inside and sit quietly in their room. They think about what they did and what they learned. They hope mom will forgive them soon. +Tom and Lily were playing in the garden. They liked to fill their buckets with water and pour it on the flowers. They also liked to splash each other and laugh. + +But there was a mosquito that did not like their fun. It buzzed around them and tried to bite them. It was very hungry and mean. + +"Ow!" Lily cried. "The mosquito bit me! It hurts!" + +Tom saw the mosquito on Lily's arm. He was angry and brave. He tried to hit it with his hand, but it was too fast. It flew away and came back. + +"Go away, mosquito!" Tom shouted. "You are not nice! You are not our friend!" + +The mosquito did not listen. It wanted more blood. It flew towards Tom's face. + +But then, something bright and loud came from the sky. It was a firework. It made a big boom and a lot of colors. Tom and Lily looked up and smiled. They liked fireworks. They were pretty and fun. + +The mosquito did not like fireworks. It was scared and confused. It did not know where to go. It flew into the firework and got burned. It fell to the ground and did not buzz anymore. + +Tom and Lily did not see the mosquito. They did not care. They hugged each other and watched the fireworks. They were happy and safe. They filled their buckets with water and poured it on the flowers. They also splashed each other and laughed. +Tom and Anna were twins who liked to go to the zoo with their mom. They loved to see all the different animals, but their favorite was the gorilla. The gorilla was big and strong and had black fur. Sometimes he would make funny noises and faces at them. + +One day, when they were at the zoo, they saw a new sign next to the gorilla's cage. It said: "Meet King, the wealthy gorilla. He has a lot of bananas, toys and friends. He is very happy and generous. Do you want to say hello to him?" + +Tom and Anna were curious and excited. They wanted to meet King and see his bananas and toys. They asked their mom if they could go closer to the cage. Their mom said yes, but told them to be careful and respectful. + +They walked up to the cage and saw King sitting on a big pile of yellow bananas. He also had a ball, a doll, a hat and a book. He looked very proud and happy. He saw Tom and Anna and smiled. He picked up a banana and threw it to them. + +"Hi, King!" Tom said, catching the banana. "You have a lot of bananas. Can we have some?" + +"Sure, sure!" King said, nodding his head. "You can have some. I have plenty. I am a wealthy gorilla. I share with my friends." + +"Thank you, King!" Anna said, peeling the banana. "You are very nice. Can we see your toys?" + +"Of course, of course!" King said, waving his hand. "You can see my toys. I have many. I like to play with them. They are fun." + +Tom and Anna knelt down and looked at King's toys. They were colorful and shiny. They asked King if they could touch them. King said yes, but told them to be gentle and careful. + +They played with King's toys for a while, and King played with them too. They had a lot of fun. They laughed and talked and made friends. They forgot about the other animals and the time. + +Their mom watched them and smiled. She was glad that they were having fun and learning. She thought that King was a very special gorilla. He was wealthy, but he was also kind and generous. He knew how to share and make others happy. She hoped that Tom and Anna would learn from him and be like him. She was proud of them and of King. +Tom and Ann liked to play with dough. They had many colors of dough and they made animals and shapes with it. One day, they wanted to make a big cake with all their dough. They put the dough in a big bowl and mixed it well. + +"Let's put the cake in the oven and see what happens," Tom said. + +"Okay, but we have to ask mom first," Ann said. + +They ran to the kitchen and asked mom if they could use the oven. Mom said yes, but they had to be careful and not touch the hot oven. She helped them put the bowl in the oven and set the timer. + +Tom and Ann waited for the cake to be ready. They played with their toys and read some books. They were very excited to see their cake. + +But when the timer rang, they had a big surprise. They opened the oven and saw that the bowl was empty. There was no cake, only some crumbs and smoke. + +"Where is our cake?" Tom asked. + +"It disappeared!" Ann said. + +They looked at mom and saw that she was smiling. She had a big slice of cake in her hand. + +"Did you eat our cake, mom?" Tom asked. + +"Maybe I did," mom said. "It smelled so good and I was hungry. And you two were so lazy, you didn't watch the oven." + +Tom and Ann were sad and angry. They wanted to eat their cake too. + +"Mom, that's not fair!" Ann said. + +"Mom, you are naughty!" Tom said. + +Mom laughed and hugged them. She said she was sorry and she was only joking. She had another cake in the fridge that she had made earlier. She gave them each a slice and they ate it happily. + +They forgave mom and said they loved her. They also learned a lesson: never leave your dough in the oven unattended. +Tim and Mia are playing in the park. They see a big balloon with many colors. It is tied to a small box. Tim wants to see the balloon closer. He runs to the box and pulls the string. + +"Tim, stop!" Mia shouts. "That is not a toy. That is oxygen. It helps people breathe when they are sick." + +But Tim does not listen. He pulls harder and harder. The string breaks. The balloon flies away very fast. It makes a loud noise. Pop! + +Tim and Mia are scared. They see a man running to them. He is wearing a white coat. He looks angry. + +"Who did this?" he asks. "Who popped my oxygen balloon? Do you know how dangerous that is?" + +Tim and Mia do not know what to say. They feel bad. They did not mean to hurt the man or the balloon. They just wanted to play. + +"Sorry, sir," Tim says. "We did not know. We thought it was a toy." + +The man sighs. He sees that Tim and Mia are just kids. He is not so angry anymore. He tries to explain. + +"This is not a toy. This is oxygen. It is a gas that we need to live. Some people need more oxygen than others. They use balloons like this to breathe better. If you pop the balloon, you waste the oxygen and make a loud noise. That can hurt your ears and scare other people." + +Tim and Mia nod. They understand a little bit. They say sorry again. They promise to be more careful next time. They ask the man if he has another balloon. + +The man smiles. He says he has one more. He shows them the balloon. He lets them touch it gently. He tells them the colors and the shapes. He says they can play with the balloon, but they have to be gentle and not pull the string. + +Tim and Mia are happy. They thank the man. They play with the balloon. They are gentle and not pull the string. They learn something new. They have fun. +Tom was a bald man who liked to bake. He baked bread, cakes, pies and cookies.

There was flour on the floor, eggs on the wall, sugar on the table and butter on the sofa. There was also a burnt smell in the air. Tom was very angry and sad. + +He looked around and saw his dog, Spot, sitting in the corner. Spot had a guilty look on his face. He had a piece of cake in his mouth. Tom realized that Spot had eaten his cake and made the mess. + +"Spot, you bad dog!" Tom shouted. "You ruined my cake and my wife's birthday! How could you do this?" + +Spot whimpered and dropped the cake. He wagged his tail and licked Tom's hand. He was sorry and wanted to say sorry. + +Tom sighed and calmed down. He knew that Spot was a good dog who loved him. He also knew that he still had time to bake another cake. He decided to forgive Spot and clean the kitchen. + +He hugged Spot and said, "It's okay, boy. I'm not mad at you anymore. But next time, please don't touch my baking. It's not good for you. And it's not nice for me." + +Spot barked and nodded. He was happy and grateful. He helped Tom clean the kitchen and watched him bake another cake. He also helped him decorate the cake and put the candles on it. + +When Tom's wife came home, she was surprised and delighted. She saw the beautiful cake and the card.

She saw the broken block and the sad faces. She hugged Sara and Ben and said, "Don't worry, I have an idea. Let's turn this block into something else. Something delicious." + +She took the two pieces of the block and brought them to the kitchen. She put them in a bowl and added some milk and eggs and sugar and flour. She stirred and stirred until the block was gone. Then she poured the batter into a pan and put it in the oven. + +Sara and Ben waited and waited. They smelled something good. Mom took the pan out of the oven and showed them. It was a cake. A red cake. She cut two slices and gave one to Sara and one to Ben. + +"Wow!" Sara said. "Yum!" Ben said.

They had to crawl up the stairs to reach the top. + +"Come on, Lily, it will be fun!" Tom said. + +"I'm scared, Tom. It's too high and too fast." Lily said. + +"Don't be scared, Lily. We are lucky. We can do it. Just hold my hand." Tom said. + +They crawled up the stairs and reached the top. They looked down and saw the slide. It was shiny and long and curved. They saw other kids go down and laugh. + +"Ready, Lily?" Tom said. + +"OK, Tom. Let's go." Lily said. + +They held hands and sat on the slide. They pushed themselves and started to slide down.

Tom and Lily did not see it. They slid into the hole and fell down. They hit the ground hard and hurt themselves. They cried and cried. + +"Help, help!" Tom and Lily shouted. + +But no one heard them. They were stuck in the hole. They were not lucky. They were sad and scared. They wished they had not gone on the slide. They wished they had listened to Lily. They wished they had stayed on the ground. They wished someone would find them. But no one did. The end. +Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their toy cars. They have many cars of different colors and sizes. They drive them on the floor, on the sofa, on the table. They make sounds like vroom, beep, honk. + +One day, their mom gives them a big envelope. She says it is a surprise for them. She tells them to open it together. Tom and Sam are very excited.

He was scared of the loud noises, the big people, and the fast turns. He always held his mom's hand and looked out the window with a frown. + +Lily, on the other hand, loved the bus. She thought it was incredible how it could move so many people and go to different places. She always smiled and waved at the other passengers and the driver. She liked to see the trees, the cars, and the shops along the way. + +One day, as they were on the bus, Tom saw a big dog on the sidewalk. He was afraid of dogs, too. He screamed and hid behind his mom. Lily saw the dog, too, but she thought it was cute and fluffy. She said, "Look, Tom, a dog! It has a nice collar and a tail. It is not scary, it is friendly!" + +Tom peeked from behind his mom and saw the dog. It was wagging its tail and licking a boy's face. The boy was laughing and petting the dog. Tom realized that the dog was not mean, it was happy. He said, "Maybe you are right, Lily. Maybe the dog is not scary. Maybe it is nice." + +Lily smiled and said, "See, Tom, you don't have to be scared of everything. You can relax and enjoy the bus ride. There are many incredible things to see and do. You just have to be brave and curious." + +Tom nodded and said, "OK, Lily, I will try to relax and have fun. Thank you for helping me. You are a good sister." + +Mom hugged them both and said, "I am proud of you, Tom, for facing your fears. And I am proud of you, Lily, for being supportive and kind. You are both incredible children. Now, let's go to the park and play!" +Lily and Sam were twins who liked to play with their toys. They had many toys, but their favorite was a big pink bear.

She saw the broken bear and the sad twins. She hugged them and said, "I'm sorry, my loves. You should not fight over your toys. You should share them and take care of them. Fighting can hurt the things and the people you love. Do you understand?" + +Lily and Sam nodded and said, "Yes, Mama. We're sorry. We love the bear and we love each other. Can you fix the bear, please?" + +Mama smiled and said, "I'll try, my loves. But you have to promise me to be kind and gentle with your toys and with each other. Can you do that?" + +Lily and Sam hugged each other and said, "Yes, Mama. We promise. Thank you, Mama." + +Mama took the bear and sewed it back together. It was not as good as before, but it was still a big pink bear. She gave it back to Lily and Sam, who thanked her and kissed her. They decided to take turns sleeping with the bear and playing with it in the garden. They learned their lesson and never fought over the bear again. They were happy and the bear was happy too. +Anna and Ben were twins who lived in a big city. They liked to play in the park with their ball and their dog, Spot.

They did not know what they meant. + +"No," Ben said. + +The painter sighed. + +"Well, you can't go on the slide now. It's not dry yet. And you have to wash your clothes. They are ruined," he said. + +He was not happy. + +Anna and Ben felt bad. They were sorry. + +"We're sorry, mister," Anna said. + +"Yeah, we're sorry," Ben said. + +The painter looked at them. He saw their faces. They were cute. + +He smiled. + +"It's OK, kids. Don't worry. It's just paint. It will come off. But next time, be careful and read the signs, OK?" he said. + +He was nice. + +"OK," Anna and Ben said. + +They thanked the painter and went home with Spot. They told their mom what happened.

They pull and push and yell. + +"Stop it, you two!" Mom says. She comes down to the basement. She sees the box and the scissors. She is not happy. + +"What are you doing with the box and the scissors?" Mom asks. "You could hurt yourselves or make a mess." + +"We want to play with the box," Tom and Anna say. + +"Well, you have to share the box and play nicely," Mom says. "Why don't you make something that you both like?" + +Tom and Anna think for a moment. They look at the box. + +"I have an idea," Anna says. "We can make an opera with our cars and dolls." + +"An opera?" Tom asks. "What is that?" + +"It is a show with singing and music and costumes," Anna says. "It is fun and pretty." + +"OK, that sounds good," Tom says. "But it has to be tough, too. With action and adventure and danger." + +"OK, OK," Anna says. "We can make a tough opera. But you have to sing, too." + +"Fine, I will sing," Tom says. "But you have to drive, too." + +"Fine, I will drive," Anna says. + +They agree to make a tough opera with their cars and dolls.

They are pretty and soft." + +"Me too, Lily. Can we buy it?" Ben asked. He ran to the man. "How much is the palm, mister?" + +The man smiled. He looked at Ben and Lily. They were small and cute. He said, "The palm is five dollars. But for you, I can make it four." + +Ben and Lily looked at each other. They did not have any money. They felt helpless. They wanted the palm, but they could not buy it. + +"Sorry, mister, we have no money," Ben said. He looked sad. + +The man saw their faces. He felt sorry for them. He said, "You know what? You can have the palm for free. It is a gift. But you have to take good care of it. Water it every day and give it some sun." + +Ben and Lily could not believe it. They were so happy. They thanked the man and hugged him. They took the palm and ran back to their mom. They showed her their new plant. She was happy for them too. + +They went home with the palm.

Mom asks. + +"The powder in the bag, Mom!" Ben and Lily say. + +Mom looks at the bag and sees the label. It says "Flour". + +"Oh, no, Ben and Lily, that's not powder, that's flour! That's for baking, not for playing!" Mom says. + +"Oops, sorry, Mom!" Ben and Lily say. + +Mom sighs and smiles. + +"It's OK, Ben and Lily, but you need to wash up now. You're very dirty and sticky!"

Do you want to see it?" + +Lily nodded and went to the girl. She touched the pink bear and said, "It is nice, but I like my bear more. He is bigger and warmer. He is my best friend." + +The girl was jealous of Lily's bear. She said, "Your bear is old and boring. I bet you don't even know how to sell it. I can sell my bear for a lot of money, because it is rare and special." + +Lily was angry and sad. She said, "I don't want to sell my bear. He is not for sale. He is mine and I love him. You are mean and rude. Go away!" + +Lily ran back to her mom and hugged Brownie. Her mom said, "Don't worry, Lily. Your bear is wonderful and so are you.

He was almost free. He saw a gap in the crib. He tried to squeeze through it. + +But he was too big. He got stuck. He could not move. He felt pain in his tummy and his legs. He started to cry. He wanted his mommy and daddy to help him. He felt helpless. + +His mommy and daddy heard his cry. They ran to his room. They saw him in the crib. They were shocked and scared. They tried to free him, but they could not. They called for help. They waited for a long time. + +But it was too late. Timmy was hurt too much. He stopped crying. He stopped breathing. He was gone. His mommy and daddy were very sad. They wished they had never given him a crib. They wished they had watched him more. They wished they could hug him and kiss him again. But they could not. +Tom and Sam were friends. They liked to play with toys. One day, they found a gun in the park. It was big and shiny. They did not know what it was. + +"Look, what is this?" Tom asked. + +"I don't know. Maybe it is a toy. Can I see?" Sam said. + +Tom gave the gun to Sam. Sam held it and pointed it at Tom. He pressed the button. Bang! The gun made a loud noise. Tom fell down and did not move. Sam was scared. He dropped the gun and ran away. + +A lady saw what happened. She was busy walking her dog. She heard the noise and saw Tom on the ground. She called for help. She was sad and angry. + +The police came and took the gun. They asked Sam why he did it. Sam said he did not know. He said he was sorry. He said he thought it was a toy. The police said it was not a toy. It was a real gun. It belonged to a bad man who left it in the park. The police said Sam was very wrong to play with it. They said he hurt his friend and himself. + +The moral of the story is: Do not play with things you do not know. They can be dangerous and hurt you and others. Always ask an adult before you touch something new. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park and look for treasures. One day, they found a map in a big box. The map showed them where to find a big cake. + +"Wow, a cake!" Lily said. "Let's go and get it!" + +"OK, but we have to be careful," Ben said. "The map says there are traps on the way." + +They followed the map and avoided the traps. They crossed a bridge, climbed a hill, and jumped over a hole. They were very brave and smart. + +They reached the place where the cake was. It was a big, round cake with pink frosting and sprinkles. It looked very tasty. + +"Yay, we did it!" Lily said. "Let's eat the cake!" + +But before they could take a bite, a voice stopped them. + +"Hey, that's my cake!" the voice said. It was a mean boy who lived near the park. He had made the map and the traps to trick Lily and Ben. + +"Give me back my cake!" he said. "It's mine!" + +Lily and Ben were scared and sad. They had worked hard to find the cake, and they were hungry. They didn't want to give it to the mean boy. + +But then they realized something. They realized that the cake was not a real treasure. The real treasure was their friendship. They had helped each other and had fun together. They didn't need the cake to be happy. + +They looked at each other and smiled. They decided to share the cake with the mean boy. Maybe he was lonely and needed a friend too. + +"Here, you can have some cake," Lily said. "But only if you are nice to us." + +"Really?" the mean boy said. He was surprised and curious. He had never shared anything with anyone. + +"Yes, really," Ben said. "We are friends, and friends share." + +The mean boy took a slice of cake and tasted it. It was very tasty. He smiled and said, "Thank you. Do you want to play with me?" + +Lily and Ben nodded. They ate the cake and played with the mean boy. They had a lot of fun. + +The moral of the story is: Friendship is more valuable than cake, and sharing is caring. +Sam and Ben are brothers. They like to play with their toys in their room. Sam has a lot of cars and trucks. Ben has a lot of animals and dinosaurs. They share some toys, but they also have their own favorites. + +One day, Sam decides to display his cars and trucks on his bed. He arranges them by color and size. He is very proud of his collection. He calls Ben to see his display. + +"Ben, come here! Look at my cars and trucks! They are so cool and fast!" Sam says. + +Ben comes to Sam's bed and looks at his display. He is not very impressed. He thinks his animals and dinosaurs are more fun and interesting. He says to Sam: + +"Your cars and trucks are boring. They are all the same. They are ordinary. My animals and dinosaurs are better. They are different. They are special." + +Sam gets angry. He does not like Ben's words. He thinks his cars and trucks are the best. He says to Ben: + +"Your animals and dinosaurs are silly. They are not real. They are fake. My cars and trucks are real. They are awesome." + +They start to argue. They raise their voices. They do not listen to each other. They are not nice to each other. + +Mom hears them from the kitchen. She is making steak for dinner. She smells the steak. It is almost ready. She turns off the stove. She goes to their room. She sees them fighting. She is not happy. She says to them: + +"Boys, stop it! Why are you fighting? You should be nice to each other. You are brothers. You should share and respect each other's toys. They are all good toys. They are not ordinary. They are special. They are yours." + +She hugs them and kisses them. She tells them to calm down and apologize to each other. She tells them to put away their toys and come to the table. She tells them she has made steak for dinner. She tells them they will like it. It is juicy and tasty. + +Sam and Ben stop fighting. They say sorry to each other. They hug and kiss Mom. They put away their toys and come to the table. They see the steak. They smell the steak. They are hungry. They say thank you to Mom. They try the steak. They like it. It is juicy and tasty. They are happy. They are brothers. They are friends. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play games. Today they play a game with a bowl and some balls. The bowl is big and red. The balls are small and yellow. + +Tom says, "I go first. I throw the ball in the bowl. If I do it, I win." He throws the ball, but he misses. The ball rolls away. Lily laughs. + +Lily says, "My turn. I am intelligent. I can throw the ball in the bowl." She throws the ball, but she misses too. The ball bounces off the wall. Tom laughs. + +They try again and again, but they cannot throw the ball in the bowl. They get tired and sad. They do not want to play anymore. + +Then they see a cat. The cat is black and white. The cat is curious. The cat jumps on the table. The cat sees the bowl and the balls. The cat plays with the balls. The cat pushes the balls with its paw. The cat throws the balls in the bowl. The cat wins. + +Tom and Lily clap their hands. They say, "Wow! The cat is very intelligent. The cat can throw the ball in the bowl. The cat is the winner." + +The cat purrs. The cat is happy. Tom and Lily are happy too. They hug the cat. They say, "We love you, cat. You are our friend. You are the best." +Anna was a naughty daughter. She did not listen to her mommy and daddy. She liked to open things that were not hers. She opened boxes, drawers, jars, and bags. She made a big mess and broke many things. + +One day, Anna saw a big red box in her mommy's closet. She wanted to open it and see what was inside. She thought it was a present for her. She did not know that it was a box of matches that her mommy used for candles. + +She climbed on a chair and reached for the box. She opened it and saw many little sticks with red tips. She thought they were toys. She took one and rubbed it on the box. It made a bright spark and a loud noise. She liked it and laughed. + +She took another one and did the same. Then another, and another. Soon, the box was on fire. The fire spread to the clothes and the curtains. Anna was scared and dropped the box. She ran out of the closet and screamed. + +Mommy and daddy heard her scream and ran to the closet. They saw the fire and smelled the smoke. They were very angry and very sad. They grabbed Anna and ran out of the house. They called the firemen to come and help. + +But it was too late. The fire was too big and too fast. It burned the whole house and everything in it. Anna lost her toys, her clothes, her books, and her bed. She had no home anymore. She cried and cried. She wished she had not been a naughty daughter. She wished she had not opened the box. +One day, Anna and Ben went to the park with their mom. They saw many birds on the grass and in the trees. Anna liked the birds. She wanted to touch them and feel their feathers. Ben did not like the birds. He thought they were noisy and boring. + +"Look, mom, a yellow bird!" Anna said, pointing to a small canary. "Can I hold it?" + +Mom shook her head. "No, Anna, you can't. The bird is not a toy. It is alive and it might be scared of you. You can look at it, but don't touch it." + +Anna felt sad. She wanted to feel the soft feather of the yellow bird. She wondered how it would feel in her hand. She thought it would feel nice and warm. + +Ben rolled his eyes. He did not care about the yellow bird. He thought it was ordinary and dull. He wanted to play with something else. He saw a big red ball on the grass. He ran to get it. + +"Hey, that's mine!" a boy shouted, following Ben. "Give it back!" + +Ben did not listen. He grabbed the ball and threw it in the air. He felt happy and excited. He thought the ball was fun and cool. + +The boy felt angry and sad. He wanted his ball back. He ran after Ben and tried to take it from him. + +"Stop it!" mom said, seeing the boys fight. "Ben, give the ball back to the boy. It is not yours. You can't take things that belong to others." + +Ben felt ashamed and sorry. He knew he did something bad. He gave the ball back to the boy and said sorry. + +The boy felt relieved and glad. He thanked Ben and said it was okay. + +Mom smiled and hugged Ben. She said she was proud of him for saying sorry. She said he could play with the boy if he wanted. + +Ben nodded and smiled. He felt better and friendly. He asked the boy his name and if he wanted to play with him. + +The boy said his name was Sam and he wanted to play with Ben. + +Anna saw Ben and Sam playing with the ball. She felt happy for Ben. She thought he made a new friend. She still wanted to feel the feather of the yellow bird, but she did not mind. She knew she could not touch it. She decided to watch it and sing to it. She thought it would like that. She felt calm and peaceful. She liked the park and the birds. She thought it was a good day. +Tim and Sue were friends. They liked to play in the park. They had a ball and a kite. They had fun. + +One day, they saw a big house. It had a high wall and a big gate. They saw a sign. It said "Keep out". They were curious. They wanted to see what was inside. + +They waited until the guard was not looking. The guard was old and sleepy. They ran to the gate. They pushed it. It opened. They went inside. + +They saw a big garden. It had flowers and trees and a pond. They saw a swing and a slide. They were happy. They played on the swing and the slide. They forgot about the guard. + +The guard woke up. He heard noises. He saw the gate was open. He was angry. He went inside. He saw Tim and Sue. He shouted at them. He chased them. He caught them. He locked them in a shed. It was dark and gloomy. They were scared. They hoped someone would find them. But no one did. They were sad. They cried. The end. +Anna and Ben are at the park with their mom. They see many pigeons on the grass. They want to feed them some bread. + +"Mom, can we give bread to the pigeons?" Anna asks. + +"Sure, but be careful. Don't get too close to them. They might fly away or peck you." Mom says. + +Anna and Ben break the bread into small pieces and throw them on the ground. The pigeons come closer and eat the bread. Anna and Ben are happy. They like to watch the pigeons. + +"Look, that one is big and gray. He has a red ring on his leg." Ben says. He points to a pigeon that is eating near them. + +"Wow, he is pretty. Maybe he is the leader of the pigeons." Anna says. + +Suddenly, a loud noise scares the pigeons. They flap their wings and fly away. Anna and Ben are sad. They want the pigeons to come back. + +"What was that noise?" Anna asks. + +"It was a car horn. Someone was honking." Mom says. + +"Maybe the car wanted to say hello to the pigeons." Ben says. + +"Maybe. But the pigeons are very alert. They don't like loud noises. They think they are dangerous." Mom says. + +"Will they come back?" Anna asks. + +"Maybe. If we are quiet and patient. Do you want to wait for them?" Mom asks. + +"Yes, please. We like the pigeons." Anna and Ben say. + +They sit on a bench and wait for the pigeons. They hope the pigeons will come back and eat more bread. They are quiet and patient. They love the park and the pigeons. +Anna liked flowers very much. She liked to look at them, smell them, and touch them. She wanted to have a flower bracelet like her big sister. Her big sister had a bracelet with many pretty flowers that bloom in spring. Anna asked her big sister if she could have her bracelet, but her big sister said no. She said it was her special bracelet and Anna was too little to wear it. + +Anna was sad and angry. She did not listen to her big sister. She waited until her big sister was not looking and took her bracelet. She ran outside and put it on her wrist. She felt happy and proud. She wanted to show her bracelet to her friends. She did not see the big dog that was barking at her. She did not hear her big sister calling her name. She did not obey her big sister. + +The big dog was not friendly. He did not like Anna. He saw her bracelet and wanted to have it. He ran after Anna and bit her wrist. Anna screamed and dropped her bracelet. The dog took the bracelet and ran away. Anna was hurt and scared. She cried and cried. Her big sister came and hugged her. She was sorry and angry. She said Anna was naughty and foolish. She said she would not give her another bracelet. She said she would tell their mom what Anna did. + +Anna was sorry and sad. She wished she had listened to her big sister. She wished she had not taken her bracelet. She wished she had been obedient. She learned a hard lesson. She lost her bracelet and her big sister's trust. She had a bad ending. +Sara and Ben are twins. They share a room and a big mattress. Sara likes to sleep on the left side and Ben likes to sleep on the right side. But sometimes Ben takes up too much space and Sara has to move. + +One night, Sara wakes up and feels Ben's feet on her face. She pushes them away and says, "Ben, move over! You are on my side!" + +Ben does not wake up. He just mumbles and rolls over. But he still takes up too much space. Sara has to squeeze to the edge of the mattress. She is not happy. She sighs and tries to sleep. + +The next morning, Sara tells Mom about Ben. She says, "Mom, Ben is not fair. He always takes up too much space on the mattress. Can I have my own mattress?" + +Mom smiles and hugs Sara. She says, "I know, sweetie. Ben is not very good at sharing. But he is your brother and he loves you. He is dependable. He will always be there for you. Maybe you can talk to him and find a way to share the mattress better." + +Sara thinks about it. She loves Ben too. He is fun and kind. He plays with her and helps her. He is dependable. Maybe she can give him a little more space and he can give her a little more space. She says, "Okay, Mom. I will try. Thank you." + +Mom kisses Sara and says, "You're welcome, honey. You are a good sister. I'm proud of you." +Lila liked to talk to her toys. She had a doll, a bear, a car and a celery. The celery was her favorite. She found it in the fridge one day and thought it was attractive. It was green and crunchy and had a funny name. + +One day, Lila decided to have a tea party with her toys. She put a blanket on the floor and set up some cups and plates. She gave each toy a piece of cake, except for the celery. She gave the celery a glass of water. + +"Hello, my friends," Lila said. "Thank you for coming to my tea party. How are you today?" + +The doll said, "I'm fine, thank you. You are very kind to share your cake with us." + +The bear said, "I'm good, too. You are very pretty in your dress." + +The car said, "I'm fast, vroom vroom. You are very smart to drive me." + +The celery said nothing. It just sat in its glass of water and looked attractive. + +Lila noticed that the celery was quiet. She asked, "Celery, why don't you talk to me? Don't you like me?" + +The celery still said nothing. It just smiled with its leaves. + +Lila felt sad. She wanted the celery to talk to her. She said, "Celery, please talk to me. I like you very much. You are my favorite toy. You are green and crunchy and have a funny name. Please say something." + +The celery still said nothing. It just winked with its eye. + +Lila was confused. She wondered what the celery was thinking. She said, "Celery, what are you trying to say? Do you have a secret? Do you have a wish? Do you have a joke?" + +The celery still said nothing. It just nodded with its head. + +Lila was curious. She leaned closer to the celery and whispered, "Celery, tell me your secret. Tell me your wish. Tell me your joke. I won't tell anyone. I promise." + +The celery still said nothing. It just opened its mouth and said, "Boo!" + +Lila was surprised. She jumped back and screamed. Then she laughed. She realized that the celery was playing a trick on her. She said, "Celery, you are so silly. You scared me. But you also made me laugh. You are a funny toy. I like you even more now." + +The celery said, "I like you, too, Lila. You are a good friend. You are fun and sweet and have a nice name. I'm sorry I didn't talk to you before. I was shy. But now I'm happy to talk to you." + +Lila hugged the celery. She said, "I'm happy, too, Celery.

I can fit this doll on top of the books!" Anna says. + +They keep playing until the box is full. They are very proud of their work. They look at the box and smile. + +"Wow, we fit so many toys in the box!" Ben says. + +"Yes, we did! We are very smart!" Anna says. + +They are happy, but they are also tired. They have been playing for a long time. They feel their eyes getting heavy. They yawn and stretch. + +"Ben, I think we need a nap," Anna says. + +"Me too, Anna. I am sleepy," Ben says. + +They look for a place to nap. They see their beds, but they are too far away. They see the box, but it is too full. They see the rug, but it is too small. They are anxious. They want to nap, but they don't know where. + +Then, they have an idea. They look at each other and nod. They go to the box and take out some toys. They make a pile of toys on the floor. They make a soft and cozy bed. They lie down on the toys and cuddle. They fit perfectly on the toys. + +"Anna, this is a good place to nap," Ben says. + +"Yes, Ben, this is a good place to nap," Anna says. + +They close their eyes and fall asleep. They dream of their toys and their game. They are happy and peaceful. They have a good nap. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play with crayons and paper. They make marks of different colors and shapes. They have fun. + +One day, Lily and Ben find a big roll of paper in the closet. They are happy. They unroll the paper on the floor. They have more space to make marks. + +"Look, I can make a mark of a cat!" Lily says. She draws a circle for the head, two triangles for the ears, and a long line for the tail. + +"That's a good mark, Lily!" Ben says. He draws a mark of a dog. He draws a circle for the head, two floppy ears, and four legs. + +They make more marks of animals, flowers, and stars. They fill the paper with colors. + +But then, Lily makes a mistake. She drops her crayon on her dress. It makes a big red mark on her waist. She is sad. She does not like the mark on her dress. + +"Oh no, Lily, I'm sorry!" Ben says. He sees the mark on her dress. He tries to help her. He takes a wet cloth and rubs the mark. But it does not go away. It only makes the mark bigger and wetter. + +Lily starts to cry. She thinks her dress is ruined. She thinks her mom will be angry. + +"Don't cry, Lily, it's okay!" Ben says. He has an idea. He takes his crayon and makes a mark on his shirt. He makes a big blue mark on his waist. He smiles at Lily. + +"See, Lily, now we match!" Ben says. He shows her his mark. He hopes she will feel better. + +Lily looks at Ben. She sees his mark. She stops crying.

They did not stick together. They fell apart. Sara was sad. She had a terrible paper rainbow. It did not look like the real rainbow. She threw it away. + +Her mom saw her crying. She asked her what was wrong. Sara told her about the paper rainbow. Her mom hugged her and said, "Sara, you are very good at folding paper. But some things are not meant to be folded. Some things are meant to be admired. The rainbow is one of them. It is a gift from God. He made it to show us His love and promise. You can enjoy the rainbow, but you cannot make it. It is special and unique." + +Sara understood. She felt better. She thanked her mom and said, "You are right, mom. The rainbow is beautiful. I will not try to fold it again. I will just look at it and be happy." She smiled and hugged her mom. They went outside and watched the rainbow together. Sara learned to appreciate the things that God made.

Sara was happy. +Lily and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun with their cars, dolls, blocks and books. But Lily wanted to play with Ben's file, too. A file was a thing that made paper smaller and had many teeth. Lily liked to see the paper come out of the file in thin strips. + +"Can I have your file, Ben?" Lily asked. + +"No, it's mine. You have your own toys," Ben said. + +"Please, Ben. Just for a little bit," Lily begged. + +"No, go away. You are annoying," Ben said. He pushed Lily away with his hand. + +Lily felt angry and sad.

Lily said sorry to Ben, too. They hugged and made up. Mom smiled and said they should play nicely and be kind to each other. Lily and Ben agreed. They played with their other toys and had fun again. +Tom and Lily like to play in the park. They see a big hill that looks like a mountain.

It is like the mountain is part. They look inside the hole and see water. It is a pond. They see fish and frogs and ducks. They are surprised. + +They want to go down and see the pond. But they are careful. They do not want to fall in the water. They go down slowly and hold each other's hand. They reach the bottom and sit by the pond. They watch the animals and listen to the sounds. They are happy. + +They say thank you to the mountain for the fun adventure. They say they will come back another day. They run back to their mom and dad and tell them what they saw. Mom and dad smile and hug them. They say they are proud of them. They say they love them. +Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog with a man. The dog has long hair and big ears. The man wears a hat and a coat. He is a guard. + +"Wow, look at that dog!" Sara says. "He is so big and fluffy!" + +"Can we pet him?" Ben asks. He likes dogs. + +They run to the man and the dog. The man smiles and says hello. + +"Hello, kids. This is Max. He is a rare dog. He is a sheepdog. He helps me watch the sheep." + +"Sheep? Where are the sheep?" Sara asks. She likes sheep. + +"They are in the farm. We are just taking a walk. Do you want to pet Max? He is very friendly." + +"Yes, please!" Ben says. He reaches out his hand. + +Max wags his tail and licks Ben's hand. Ben giggles. + +"He is so soft and warm!" Ben says. + +Sara pets Max too. She feels his long hair. + +"He is so nice!" Sara says. + +The man laughs. He likes the twins. + +"You are very nice too. Max likes you. Do you want to see the sheep someday?" + +"Yes, yes!" Sara and Ben say. + +"Okay, maybe next time. We have to go now. Bye, kids. Bye, Max." + +"Bye, guard. Bye, Max. Thank you!" Sara and Ben say. + +They wave to the man and the dog.

They liked to play on the swings and slide. But Mom said they had to delay. She had to finish some work on her laptop. + +"Can we go soon, Mom?" Lily asked. + +"Please be patient, sweetie. I just need a few more minutes," Mom said. + +Lily and Ben were bored. They looked out the window and saw a creek. It was flowing with water and had rocks and sticks. They wanted to explore it. + +"Can we go to the creek, Mom?" Ben asked. + +"Sorry, honey. The creek is too far and too difficult. You might get hurt or wet. You have to stay inside," Mom said. + +Lily and Ben were sad. They wished they could go to the park or the creek. They decided to play with their toys. They pretended they were in a jungle and had to cross a river. They used pillows and blankets to make a bridge. They had fun. + +"Look, Mom, we made a bridge!" Lily said. + +"That's very creative, kids. I'm proud of you," Mom said. "And guess what? I'm done with my work. We can go to the park now!" + +Lily and Ben were happy.

It is so pretty!" + +Sara says, "No, this is my dress. I found it first. You have your own dress for your doll." + +Lily is upset. She thinks Sara is not nice. She says, "That is not fair! You have more dresses than me. You should share with me. You are a bad sister!" + +Sara is upset too. She thinks Lily is not polite. She says, "That is not true! You have enough dresses for your doll. You should not take mine. You are a greedy sister!" + +They start to argue and shout at each other. They do not play with their dolls anymore.

We will be sisters." + +They go back to their dolls and play together. They give each other the dress and the other dresses. They say nice things to each other. They have fun. They are sisters. +Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and slide. They saw a big hill with many rocks and flowers. They wanted to climb the hill and see what was on the other side. + +"Let's go to the hill!" Tom said. + +"OK, but be careful!" Lily said. + +They ran to the hill and started to climb. They used their hands and feet to find places to hold on. They saw some wild animals on the way. They saw a rabbit, a bird, and a squirrel. They said hello to them. + +"Look, there is a big rock on the top of the hill!" Tom said. + +"Wow, it is very big and round!" Lily said. + +They reached the top of the hill and touched the rock. It was smooth and cold. They sat on the rock and looked around. They saw the park, the trees, the pond, and the sky. They felt happy and proud. + +"Can we remove the rock?" Tom asked. + +"Why do you want to remove it?" Lily asked. + +"Because it is fun!" Tom said. + +He pushed the rock with his hands. It did not move. He pushed harder. It still did not move. + +"It is too heavy!" Tom said. + +"Maybe we can roll it!" Lily said. + +They both pushed the rock together. It started to move a little bit. They pushed more. It moved more. They pushed even more. It moved even more. It rolled off the hill and down the other side. + +"Yay, we did it!" Tom and Lily shouted. + +They heard a loud splash. They looked down the hill. They saw the rock in the pond. They saw some fish and frogs jumping out of the water. They saw some ducks and geese flying away. They saw some people and dogs running away. + +"Uh-oh, we made a big mess!" Tom and Lily said. + +They ran down the hill and away from the pond. They hoped no one would see them. They learned a lesson. They should not remove things that are not theirs. They should be careful with wild things. They should have fun, but not too much. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the farm. They see a pig in the mud. The pig is big and pink. The pig makes a loud noise. "Oink, oink!" says the pig. + +Tom and Lily want to touch the pig. They run to the pig. But the pig does not want to be touched. The pig is fast. The pig runs away from Tom and Lily. The pig jumps over the fence. The pig goes to the field. + +Tom and Lily are sad. They cannot catch the pig. They sit on the grass. They look at the pig. The pig is happy. The pig eats the grass. The pig rolls in the mud. + +"Can we play with the pig?" asks Tom. + +"Maybe we can," says Lily. "We can be nice to the pig. We can give the pig some food. We can say hello to the pig." + +Tom and Lily get up. They find some apples. They walk to the fence. They call the pig. "Pig, pig, come here!" they say. "We have some apples for you. We want to be your friends." + +The pig hears Tom and Lily. The pig is curious. The pig likes apples. The pig walks to the fence. The pig sniffs the apples. The pig takes a bite. The pig smiles. "Oink, oink!" says the pig. + +Tom and Lily are happy. They pet the pig. They feed the pig. They talk to the pig. The pig is friendly. The pig likes Tom and Lily. They play together. They have fun. They are friends. +Lily and Ben were having breakfast. They liked to eat oats with milk and honey. Lily poured some milk on her oats and stirred them. Ben poured too much milk on his oats and made a mess. + +"Look, Ben, you soaked your oats!" Lily said. "Now they are all wet and soggy. You should be more careful." + +Ben felt bad. He did not mean to soak his oats. He liked them soft and sweet. He looked at his bowl and saw the milk spilling over the edge. + +"I'm sorry, Lily," he said. "I was hungry and I wanted more milk. Can you help me clean up?" + +Lily was a polite sister. She did not want to make Ben feel worse. She got a napkin and wiped the table. She also gave Ben a spoon and a smile. + +"It's okay, Ben," she said. "We all make mistakes sometimes. Here, have some of my oats. They are still warm and yummy." + +Ben smiled back. He was glad that Lily was nice to him. He took some of her oats and tasted them. They were delicious. He thanked Lily and shared his honey with her. + +They finished their breakfast and hugged each other. They were happy and ready to start the day. +Ben and Lily were playing in the yard. They had many toys, but they liked to build with bricks the most. They made houses, towers, and bridges with the bricks. + +One day, a big dog came into the yard. It was black and hairy, and it barked very loud. Ben and Lily were fearful of the dog. They ran to their house and closed the door. + +The dog saw the bricks and thought they were bones. It wanted to eat them. It ran to the bricks and started to bite them. The bricks broke and fell down. + +Ben and Lily heard the noise and looked out the window. They saw the dog destroying their bricks. They were angry and sad. + +"Go away, dog!" Ben shouted. "Those are our bricks, not your bones!" + +The dog did not listen. It kept biting the bricks. + +Lily had an idea. She took a ball and opened the door. She threw the ball far away. + +"Look, dog, a ball!" she said. "Go fetch the ball!" + +The dog heard Lily and saw the ball. It liked balls more than bricks. It ran after the ball and left the bricks alone. + +Ben and Lily were happy. They went out and picked up their bricks. They started to build again. + +"Good job, Lily!" Ben said. "You scared the dog away!" + +Lily smiled. "Thank you, Ben!" she said. "Let's make a big castle with our bricks!" +Lily and Ben were playing in the park. They liked to run, jump and slide on the grass and the swings. They saw many birds, flowers and bugs. They were very happy and lively. + +But then, the sky became dark and grey. Lily and Ben heard a loud noise. It was thunder. They saw a flash of light. It was lightning. They felt drops of water on their faces. It was rain. + +"Oh no, it's raining!" Lily said. "We have to find some shade!" + +"Look, there's a big tree over there!" Ben said. "Let's go under it!" + +They ran to the tree and sat under its branches. They were safe and dry. They watched the rain fall on the ground and make puddles. They heard the rain make sounds on the leaves and the roof. + +"It's like a song," Lily said. + +"Yes, it is," Ben said. "Do you like the rain?" + +"I like the rain, but I like the sun more," Lily said. "The sun is warm and bright." + +"Me too," Ben said. "But the rain is fun too. It makes everything clean and fresh." + +They smiled at each other and hugged. They waited for the rain to stop and the sun to come out again. They were still happy and lively. +One day, a little girl named Anna went to the park with her mom. She saw many things that she liked: swings, slides, flowers, and birds. She wanted to play with everything. + +"Mom, can I go and play?" she asked. + +"Yes, but stay where I can see you, okay?" her mom said. + +Anna nodded and ran to the swings. She had fun swinging high and low. Then she saw a big black dog near the slide. He had a shiny collar and a wagging tail. He looked friendly. + +Anna got off the swing and walked to the dog. She wanted to pet him and say hello. She did not see that her mom was calling her name. + +"Hi, doggy. What is your name?" she asked. + +The dog barked and licked her face. He was happy to meet her. He liked Anna. + +"His name is Max. He is my dog," a boy said. He came from behind the slide. He was holding a leash. + +"Hi, I am Anna. I like your dog. He is very friendly," Anna said. + +"Hi, I am Leo. Do you want to play with us?" the boy asked. + +"Yes, please. Can we go on the slide?" Anna asked. + +"Sure. Come on, Max. Let's go on the slide," the boy said. + +Anna, Leo, and Max went on the slide. They had fun sliding down and running up. They laughed and barked and smiled. They became friends. + +Anna's mom saw them and smiled too. She was glad that Anna found a friendly dog and a new friend. She walked to them and said hello to Leo and Max. + +"Anna, it is time to go home. Did you have fun?" she asked. + +"Yes, mom. I had fun. I met Leo and Max. They are my friends," Anna said. + +"That is wonderful. Can you say goodbye to them?" her mom asked. + +Anna hugged Leo and Max and said goodbye. She thanked them for playing with her. She said she hoped to see them again. + +Leo and Max said goodbye too. They said they liked Anna and they would play with her again. + +Anna and her mom left the park. Anna was happy. She had a good day. She wandered and found a friendly black dog and a new friend. +Lily and Tom are having breakfast with Mom and Dad. They like to eat toast with jam. Mom gives them a jar of jam and a knife. + +"Can I have some jam, please?" Lily asks Mom. + +"Sure, sweetie. Here you go." Mom says and passes the jar to Lily. + +Lily opens the jar and smells the jam. It smells delicious. She takes some jam with the knife and spreads it on her toast. She takes a bite and smiles. + +"Mmm, this jam is delicious!" she says. + +"Can I have some too?" Tom asks Lily. + +"Of course, Tom. Here you go." Lily says and passes the jar to Tom. + +Tom opens the jar and looks at the jam. It is red and shiny. He takes some jam with the knife and puts it on his toast. He takes a bite and makes a face. + +"Yuck, this jam is not delicious!" he says. + +"Why not, Tom? What's wrong with the jam?" Mom asks Tom. + +"It is too sweet. I don't like sweet jam. I like sour jam." Tom says. + +"Sour jam? What is sour jam?" Lily asks Tom. + +"Sour jam is jam that tastes like lemon. It is yummy." Tom says. + +"I don't think I would like sour jam. I like sweet jam. It is yummy." Lily says. + +They both look at each other and giggle. They have different tastes, but they are still friends. They finish their breakfast and thank Mom and Dad for the jam. They go to play with their toys. They are happy. +Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. They see many things in the park: trees, flowers, birds, dogs, and people. + +One day, they see a big ball in the sky. It is round and blue and white. It looks like a toy. + +"Look, Sue, a ball!" Tom says. + +"Wow, Tom, a ball!" Sue says. "Can we play with it?" + +They run to the ball. But they cannot reach it. It is too high and too far. + +They are sad. They want to play with the ball. + +A man sees them. He is kind. He comes to them. + +"Hello, kids. What are you doing?" he asks. + +"We want to play with the ball in the sky," Tom says. + +The man smiles. He knows something. + +"That is not a ball, kids. That is the earth," he says. + +"The earth?" Tom and Sue say. + +"Yes, the earth. It is our home. We live on the earth. It is very big and very old. It is not a toy," he says. + +Tom and Sue are surprised. They do not know this. + +"How do you know?" Tom asks. + +"I know because I am a teacher. I teach about the earth and other things. Do you want to learn?" he asks. + +Tom and Sue nod. They want to learn. + +The man takes them to a bench. He shows them a book. The book has pictures and words. He tells them about the earth and other things. He tells them about the sun, the moon, the stars, the water, the land, the animals, and the people. + +Tom and Sue listen. They learn. They are happy. + +They thank the man. They say goodbye. + +They go back to play. They look at the sky. They see the earth. It is not a ball. It is not a toy. It is their home. + +They think the earth is amazing. They think the earth is not ordinary. They think the earth is special. +Ben and Lily were playing in the living room. They had many toys, but they liked to pretend they were animals. Ben was a lion and Lily was a bird. They roared and chirped and ran around the sofa. + +"Look, Lily, there is a fireplace!" Ben said. He pointed to the big stone wall with a hole in it. There was no fire, but there were some logs and sticks. "Let's go and explore it!" + +"Okay, Ben, but be careful!" Lily said. She followed him to the fireplace. They crawled inside and saw a dark and dusty space. There were some spiders and cobwebs, but they were not scared. + +"Wow, this is like a cave!" Ben said. He pretended to be a lion king and growled. "I am the ruler of this fireplace!" + +Lily laughed and flapped her wings. She pretended to be a bird queen and sang. "I am the ruler of the sky!" + +They played for a while, until they heard their mom calling them. "Ben, Lily, time for lunch!" + +They crawled out of the fireplace and ran to the kitchen. They saw their mom smiling and holding a big plate of sandwiches. "Did you have fun, my little animals?" she asked. + +"Yes, mom, we had a lot of fun!" Ben said. "We were a lion and a bird, and we dived into the fireplace!" + +"We found a cave and we were the rulers!" Lily said. + +Mom hugged them and kissed their cheeks. "You are very creative and brave, my darlings. But you are also very dirty and hungry. Let's wash your hands and eat some good food!" +Sara and Ben are twins. They like to help Mom in the kitchen. Today, Mom is making salad for lunch. She gives Sara and Ben some lettuce, tomatoes, carrots and cheese. + +"Can you wash the lettuce and tomatoes, Sara?" Mom asks. + +"Yes, Mom. I can do that," Sara says. She takes the lettuce and tomatoes to the sink. She turns on the water and rinses them. + +"Can you cut the cheese, Ben?" Mom asks. + +"Yes, Mom. I can do that," Ben says. He takes the cheese and a knife. He cuts the cheese into small pieces. + +Mom is happy. She says, "You are both very smart and helpful. Thank you, Sara and Ben." + +Sara and Ben smile. They are proud. They bring the lettuce, tomatoes, cheese and carrots to the table. Mom has a big bowl and a spoon. She says, "Now, let's make the salad. Can you put the lettuce in the bowl, Sara?" + +Sara nods. She picks up the lettuce and tries to put it in the bowl. But the lettuce is slippery. It falls out of her hands. It scatters all over the floor. + +"Oh, no!" Sara says. She feels sad. + +Ben sees what happens. He says, "Don't worry, Sara. It's okay. We can pick it up." + +He drops the cheese and the knife. He helps Sara pick up the lettuce. They put it back in the bowl. + +Mom sees what happens. She says, "Don't worry, Sara and Ben. It's okay. Accidents happen. You are still very smart and helpful. And the salad looks delicious." + +She takes the spoon and mixes the lettuce, tomatoes, cheese and carrots. She adds some dressing and salt. She says, "The salad is ready. Let's eat." + +Sara and Ben are happy. They say, "Yay! Salad!" + +They sit down and eat the salad with Mom. They like the salad. They say, "Thank you, Mom. You are the best." + +Mom hugs them. She says, "You are welcome, Sara and Ben. You are the best, too." +Sara and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They liked to pretend they were chefs and make yummy food. Sara had a big spoon and Tom had a mop. They stirred and mixed and poured and spilled. + +"Look, I made soup!" Sara said, holding up a pot of water and bubbles. + +"Yuck, that's not soup, that's dirty!" Tom said, pointing at the mop. "You can't use a mop to cook. That's for cleaning the floor." + +Sara was angry. She liked her soup. She thought Tom was mean. She threw the pot at him. The water and bubbles splashed all over Tom and the floor. + +"Hey, stop that!" Tom shouted, wiping his face. He swung the mop at Sara. The mop hit Sara on the head. Sara felt dizzy. She fell down. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Sara cried, holding her head. "You hurt me!" + +Tom felt sorry. He didn't mean to hurt Sara. He dropped the mop and ran to her. He hugged her and said he was sorry. + +"I'm sorry, Sara. I didn't mean to hit you. Are you okay?" Tom asked. + +Sara stopped crying. She looked at Tom. She saw he was wet and bubbly. She giggled. + +"You look funny, Tom. You look like a clown." Sara said. + +Tom looked at himself. He saw he was wet and bubbly. He giggled too. + +"You look funny too, Sara. You look like a snowman." Tom said. + +They laughed and hugged. They were friends again. They decided to clean up the mess. They used the mop and the spoon. They had fun. They were happy. +Tom and Anna liked to play in the sand. They had a big spade and a small spade. They made castles and holes and bridges. They had fun. + +One day, they saw something unusual in the sand. It was shiny and round. Tom wanted to dig it out with the big spade. Anna wanted to look at it with the small spade. They argued. + +"Let me have the big spade!" Tom said. + +"No, I want it!" Anna said. + +They pulled and pushed the big spade. They did not see the shiny thing move. + +Suddenly, the shiny thing opened. It was an eye. A big eye. A big eye of a big crab. The crab was angry. It snapped its claws. It made a loud noise. + +Tom and Anna were scared. They dropped the spade. They ran away. The crab chased them. + +"Help!" Tom and Anna cried. + +They saw their mom and dad. They told them about the crab. Their mom and dad laughed. + +"It's not a crab, it's a toy!" their dad said. He picked up the toy. He showed them a button. He pressed it. The toy made the noise and moved its claws. + +Tom and Anna were surprised. They felt silly. They laughed too. + +"Who put this toy here?" their mom asked. + +They looked around. They saw a boy. He was hiding behind a rock. He was smiling. He had a remote control. He was the one who made the toy move. + +He waved at them. He said, "Sorry, I was just playing a joke. Do you want to play with me?" + +Tom and Anna looked at each other. They nodded. They liked jokes. They liked to play. They went to the boy. They became friends. They played with the toy crab and the spade. They had fun. +Lily was a little girl who liked to play with her toys. She had a big orange ball, a soft wool bear, and a shiny bike. She loved her toys very much and took good care of them. + +One day, Lily saw a new toy in the store. It was a green snake that could make noises and move. Lily wanted the snake very much, but her mom said no. She said the snake was not a good toy for Lily, and that she had enough toys at home. + +Lily was sad and angry. She wanted the snake more than anything. She thought of a plan. She would sneak out of the house and go to the store by herself. She would take the snake and run away. + +Lily waited until her mom was busy in the kitchen. She put on her shoes and coat and grabbed her bike. She rode as fast as she could to the store. She saw the snake on a shelf. She reached for it and pulled it down. She was so happy. She put the snake in her pocket and got on her bike. + +But the snake was not happy. It did not like being in Lily's pocket. It was dark and tight. It wanted to be free. It bit Lily on the leg. Lily screamed and dropped her bike. She felt a sharp pain and saw blood. She was scared and sorry. She wished she had listened to her mom. + +A man who worked in the store heard Lily's scream. He ran to her and saw the snake. He took the snake away and called Lily's mom. He also called a doctor to help Lily. Lily's mom came and hugged her. She was worried and angry, but also glad that Lily was alive. + +Lily learned a lesson that day. She learned that some toys are not good for her, and that she should not take things that are not hers. She also learned that she should not lie to her mom and run away. She said sorry to her mom and the man. She said goodbye to the snake and gave it back. She went home with her mom and her bike. She hugged her orange ball and her wool bear. She was happy with her toys. She did not want the snake anymore. +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play at the beach. They loved to make sand castles, find shells and splash in the water. One day, they saw a big boat on the sea. They wanted to go closer and see what was on the boat. + +"Let's swim to the boat!" Tom said. He was strong and brave. + +"No, Tom, it's too far and too deep. We might get lost or hurt." Lily said. She was smart and careful. + +But Tom did not listen to Lily. He said he could do it and he ran into the water. Lily followed him, because she did not want him to go alone. + +They swam and swam, but the boat did not get any nearer. The water got colder and darker. They started to feel tired and scared. They wished they had stayed on the shore. + +Suddenly, they saw a big fish with sharp teeth. It was a shark! It was hungry and angry. It wanted to eat them! + +"Help! Help!" Tom and Lily screamed. They tried to swim away, but the shark was faster and stronger. + +They held each other's hands and squeezed them hard. They hoped someone would save them. + +Then, they heard a loud horn. It was the boat! The people on the boat had seen them and the shark. They threw a rope and a net into the water. They pulled Tom and Lily out of the water and into the boat. They also caught the shark and put it in a cage. + +"Are you okay?" one of the people asked them. + +"Yes, thank you. You saved us!" Tom and Lily said. + +They hugged each other and cried. They were happy and grateful. + +They learned a lesson that day. They learned to listen to their sister or brother, and not to go too far or too deep into the sea. They learned that the sea can be fun, but also dangerous. They learned that being strong is not enough, you also need to be smart and careful. And they learned that being together and squeezing each other's hands can help you when you are in trouble. +Lily and Tom were playing in the kitchen. They wanted to make a pretend meal for their dolls. Lily found some pepper in a jar and decided to use it as a spice. Tom did not like pepper. He thought it was too hot and made him sneeze. + +"Let's serve the food now," Lily said. She put some pepper on a plate and gave it to her doll. "Here you go, Daisy. This is very yummy." + +"No, no, no!" Tom shouted. He grabbed the plate from Lily and threw it on the floor. "Pepper is bad! It hurts your mouth and nose. Daisy does not want pepper. She wants something light and sweet." + +Lily was angry. She did not like Tom's rude behavior. She thought he was mean and bossy. She pushed him away and picked up the plate. "You are wrong, Tom. Pepper is good. It makes the food tasty and warm. Daisy likes pepper. She is not a baby like you." + +Tom was hurt. He did not like Lily's mean words. He thought she was stubborn and selfish. He started to cry and ran to his mom. "Mom, mom, mom! Lily is mean to me. She put pepper on Daisy's food and said I am a baby. She does not want to play with me." + +Mom heard Tom's cry and came to the kitchen. She saw the mess on the floor and the angry faces of Lily and Tom. She sighed and hugged them both. "What is going on here? Why are you fighting over pepper?" + +Lily and Tom told their mom what happened. Mom listened and nodded. She understood their feelings. She said, "I know you both have different likes and dislikes. That is okay. But you have to respect each other and share. You can't force your doll to eat what you like or throw away what you don't like. You have to ask and offer. You have to say please and thank you. You have to be kind and gentle. Do you understand?" + +Lily and Tom nodded. They felt sorry for their actions. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They said sorry to their mom and helped her clean up the mess. They said sorry to their doll and gave her a new plate of food. They asked her what she liked and offered her some pepper and some light and sweet things. They said please and thank you. They were kind and gentle. They played happily together. +Lily and Tom were playing hide and seek in the garden. Lily was the seeker and Tom was the hider. Tom ran behind a big bush and waited for Lily to find him. He thought he had a good hiding spot. + +Lily looked around the garden and tried to find Tom. She saw a bird, a flower, a ball, but no Tom. She wondered where he was. She walked towards the bush where Tom was hiding. She heard a noise from behind the bush. She thought it was Tom. + +"Tom, I found you!" she shouted. "Come out and surrender!" + +But it was not Tom who came out of the bush. It was a big, scary dog. The dog had sharp teeth and angry eyes. The dog barked loudly and ran towards Lily. Lily was very afraid. She screamed and tried to run away. + +Tom heard Lily scream and came out of the bush. He saw the dog chasing Lily. He wanted to help her, but he was too scared. He ran to the house and locked the door. He hoped the dog would go away. + +But the dog did not go away. The dog caught Lily and bit her. Lily cried and bled. She wished Tom would come and save her. But Tom did not come. He hid in the house and did not open the door. He was a coward. + +The dog dragged Lily to his den under the bush. He ate her up. Lily was gone. Tom was alone. He felt very sorry and very sad. He had lost his friend because of his fear. He had made a big mistake. He had an unusual and bad ending. +Lily and Tom were friends. They liked to play with blocks. They wanted to make a big tower with many blocks. They took turns to add one block on top of another. + +"Look, our tower is so high!" Lily said. + +"Yes, it is!" Tom said. "We are good at building." + +They were happy and proud of their tower. They wanted to make it even higher. They had a dream to reach the sky with their blocks. + +But then, a big boy came. He was mean and strong. He saw their tower and laughed. + +"What a silly tower!" he said. "It is weak and ugly. I can break it with one push." + +He pushed their tower hard. All the blocks fell down. They made a loud noise. Lily and Tom were sad and scared. They cried. + +"Go away, you are bad!" Lily said. + +"Leave us alone, you are mean!" Tom said. + +But the big boy did not go away. He took their blocks and threw them away. He said he did not like them. He said they were stupid and boring. + +Lily and Tom had no more blocks. They had no more tower. They had no more dream. They felt weak and helpless. They hugged each other and sobbed. + +The big boy smiled and walked away. He did not care. He did not have any friends. He did not have any dreams. He was lonely and unhappy. +Tom and Sam were brothers who liked to play with toy cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. They liked to race them on the floor and make loud noises. + +One day, they found a big box in the garage. It was full of old things that their dad wanted to throw away. They saw some shiny things inside and decided to look. + +"Wow, look at this!" Tom said, holding a metal car. It was bigger and heavier than their toy cars. It had four wheels and a steering wheel, but no doors or windows. It was rusty and dusty. + +"Can we play with it?" Sam asked, reaching for the car. + +"No, it's mine!" Tom said, pulling the car away. "I found it first!" + +"But I want it too!" Sam said, trying to grab the car. + +They started to fight over the car. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They did not see their dad coming into the garage. + +"Hey, what are you doing?" their dad asked, seeing the mess. "Why are you fighting over that old thing?" + +"It's a car, dad!" Tom said. "It's cool!" + +"It's not a car, son," their dad said. "It's a dead car. It doesn't work anymore. It's just junk." + +"Junk?" Tom and Sam said, looking at the car. They saw that it was broken and dirty. They felt silly for fighting over it. + +"Can we play with something else, dad?" Sam asked. + +"Sure, you can," their dad said. "But first, you have to put the dead car back in the box. And then, you have to say sorry to each other. Fighting is not nice." + +Tom and Sam did what their dad said. They put the dead car back in the box. They said sorry to each other and hugged. They learned that sharing is better than fighting. And that old things are not always better than new things. + +They went back to their room and played with their toy cars. They had fun and made up stories. They pretended that their cars could go to the west, where the sun sets. They imagined that the west was a place full of adventure and wonder. They were happy and friendly. They were good brothers. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to travel with Mom and Dad. They have a big bag with clothes and toys. They also have a passport. A passport is a book with their names and photos. They need a passport to go to other countries. + +Today, they are going to a warm country. It is called Spain. They are very excited. They go to the airport with Mom and Dad. They see many planes and people. They wait in a line. A lady looks at their passports and smiles. She says, "Have a nice trip!" + +They board the plane. They find their seats and buckle their belts. They look out the window. They see the clouds and the sky. They hear the engine roar. The plane takes off. They feel a little scared, but also happy. + +They fly for a long time. They eat some snacks and watch some cartoons. They nap for a while. They wake up when the pilot says, "We are landing in Spain. Welcome to Madrid!" + +They get off the plane. They feel the warm air and the sun. They see many new things and people. They say, "Hola!" That means hello in Spanish. They take a taxi to their hotel. They are ready to explore and have fun. They love to travel. +Lily loved to sign. She learned to sign from her mom, who was deaf. Lily could talk with her voice, too, but she liked to use her hands as well. She thought signing was brilliant. + +One day, Lily went to the library with her mom. She saw a big bookshelf full of books. She wanted to read them all. She ran to the bookshelf and picked a book with a colorful cover. She showed it to her mom and signed, "Can I read this?" + +Her mom smiled and nodded. She signed, "Yes, you can. But be quiet, please. This is a quiet place." + +Lily nodded and opened the book. She looked at the pictures and the words. She tried to read them with her voice and her hands. She liked the story. It was about a girl who went on an adventure with her dog. + +She read and signed until the book was finished. Then she put it back on the bookshelf and picked another one. She was happy. She loved to sign and read. She thought the library was brilliant. +One day, a little crab was walking on the sand. He saw a big shell that was shiny and pretty. He wanted to make it his home. He went to the shell and tried to get inside. + +But the shell was not empty. There was a big snail inside. The snail did not like the crab. He poked his head out and said, "Go away! This is my shell!" + +The crab did not listen. He pushed harder and harder. He wanted the shell very much. The snail got angry. He stretched his long neck and slapped the crab with his wet tongue. + +The crab was scared and hurt. He let go of the shell and ran away. He felt helpless and sad. He did not have a home. + +He saw another crab walking by. The other crab was friendly and kind. He said, "Hello, little crab. Why are you so sad?" + +The little crab told him what happened. The other crab said, "Don't worry. I know a place where there are many shells. You can find one that is empty and fits you. Come with me, I will show you." + +The little crab smiled and followed the other crab. He hoped to find a new home soon. He was glad he had a new friend. +Lily liked to draw. She had many colors and papers. She made prints of her drawings. She wanted to show them to her friends. She put them in a big bag. + +She walked to the store with her mom. She saw a big sign. It said "Art Show". She wanted to go in. She asked her mom. + +"Mom, can we go to the art show? I want to see the prints." + +Mom smiled. She said "Yes, we can go. But first, we have to buy some milk and eggs. Then we can go to the art show. OK?" + +Lily nodded. She followed her mom to the store. She held her bag tight. She did not want to lose her prints. + +But when they got to the store, there was a problem. A big dog was outside. It barked loud. It ran to Lily. It wanted to play. It jumped on her. It knocked her down. It grabbed her bag. It ran away. + +Lily cried. She said "No, no, no! My prints! My prints!" + +Mom hugged her. She said "Oh, no! I'm sorry, Lily. That was a bad dog. It took your prints. Are you OK?" + +Lily was sad. She said "I'm OK, mom. But my prints are gone. I can't show them to my friends. I worked hard on them." + +Mom said "I know, Lily. You did work hard. You are a good artist. You are successful. But don't worry. We can make more prints. We can go home and draw again. We can come back to the art show another day. OK?" + +Lily wiped her tears. She said "OK, mom. Thank you, mom. I love you, mom." + +Mom said "I love you too, Lily. Come on, let's go home. We can still buy some milk and eggs on the way. And maybe some cookies too. OK?" + +Lily smiled. She said "OK, mom. Cookies sound good. And maybe some ice cream too?" + +Mom laughed. She said "Maybe some ice cream too. But only if you eat your dinner first. OK?" + +Lily said "OK, mom. That sounds fair. Let's go home." + +They walked home. They held hands. They were happy. They still liked to draw. They still liked to make prints. They still wanted to go to the art show. But they also liked to eat cookies and ice cream. And they loved each other. The end. +Anna and Ben were playing with their toys in the living room. Anna had a doll and Ben had a car. They were having fun until Ben wanted to play with the doll too. + +"Can I have the doll?" Ben asked Anna. + +"No, it's mine!" Anna said. She hugged the doll and turned away from Ben. + +Ben frowned. He did not like it when Anna did not share. He thought she was being mean. He wished he had a doll of his own. + +He looked around and saw a teddy bear on the couch. He ran to get it and brought it back to the floor. + +"Look, I have a teddy bear!" Ben said. He hoped Anna would want to play with him now. + +But Anna did not look at him. She was still holding the doll and talking to it. She pretended Ben was not there. + +Ben felt sad and confused. He did not understand why Anna did not want to be his friend. He liked the teddy bear, but he wanted to play with Anna more. + +He decided to try again. He put the teddy bear next to the doll and smiled at Anna. + +"Hi, doll. Hi, teddy bear. Do you want to play with us?" Ben said. + +Anna looked at him and saw his smile. She felt sorry for being mean to him. She realized he just wanted to have fun with her. + +She smiled back and nodded. + +"Hi, Ben. Hi, teddy bear. Yes, we want to play with you!" Anna said. + +She moved the doll closer to the teddy bear and gave Ben a hug. + +Ben was happy. He hugged Anna back and thanked her for sharing. + +They played together with the doll and the teddy bear until it was time for lunch. They were friends again. +Sara and Ben like to play pretend. They have a lot of junk in their room. They use the junk to make things. Sometimes they make a castle, sometimes they make a spaceship, sometimes they make a zoo. + +One day, they decide to make a circus. They use a big box as a tent. They use pillows as seats. They use stuffed animals as lions and elephants. They use scarves as costumes. They use pots and pans as drums. + +They take turns to be the ringmaster. The ringmaster tells the audience what to see. The ringmaster also makes loud noises with the drums. Sara is the ringmaster first. She says, "Welcome to the circus! Look at the amazing animals! They can do tricks! Watch out, they might roar or trumpet!" + +Ben is the audience. He claps and cheers. He also makes noises like the animals. He says, "Wow, that's so cool! I want to see more! Can I pet them?" + +Sara says, "Sure, you can pet them. But be careful, they might bite or kick!" + +They have fun playing pretend. They laugh and giggle. They forget about the junk. They only see the circus. +Tom and Sue are husband and wife. They live in a small house with a big dog. Tom is tough. He likes to work hard and play hard. Sue is not tough. She likes to read and sing and cook. + +One day, Tom comes home from work. He is angry. He had a bad day. He wants to watch TV and drink beer. He does not want to talk to Sue or play with the dog. He yells at Sue and the dog. He says, "Leave me alone! I don't want to hear your voice or see your face!" + +Sue is sad. She loves Tom. She wants to make him happy. She says, "Tom, please don't be mad. I made your favorite dinner. Let's eat and talk and hug. Maybe you will feel better." + +Tom does not listen. He says, "I don't want your dinner. I don't want to talk. I don't want to hug. I want you to go away. You are boring and weak and annoying. I don't want you as my wife. I want a tough wife who can work and play like me." + +Sue is shocked. She cries. She says, "Tom, how can you say that? I am your wife. I love you. You are hurting me. Please don't say that. Please don't leave me." + +Tom does not care. He says, "I don't love you. I don't care if I hurt you. I want to leave you. I want a new wife. Goodbye, Sue." He grabs his coat and his keys and walks out the door. He slams the door behind him. He does not look back. + +Sue is left alone in the house with the dog. She is heartbroken. She does not know what to do. She hugs the dog and cries. The dog licks her face and whines. He is sad too. He does not understand why Tom is gone. He wants Tom to come back. He wants Tom to be nice to Sue and to him. He wants them to be a happy family again. But Tom does not come back. He is gone for good. Sue and the dog are alone and unhappy. The end. +Sara liked to play with her dolls. She had many dolls, but her favorite was Lily. Lily had a cute dress and long hair. Sara liked to brush her hair and make her talk. + +One day, Sara's mom said they had to move to a new house. Sara was sad. She did not want to leave her friends and her room. She packed her dolls in a big box. She wrote her name on the box. She hoped her dolls would be safe. + +Sara's dad put the box in the car. He drove to the new house. Sara sat in the back seat. She looked out the window. She saw many new things. She did not like them. She missed her old house. + +When they got to the new house, Sara's dad took the box out of the car. He was in a hurry. He did not see the sign on the door. The sign said "mail". He thought the box was for the mailman. He put the box on the stage. The stage was where the mailman picked up the boxes. + +Sara did not see what her dad did. She ran inside the new house. She looked for her room. She found it. It was small and empty. She cried. She wanted her dolls. She asked her mom where they were. + +Her mom said they were in the car. She went to the car. She did not see the box. She asked her dad where the box was. He said he put it on the stage. He said he thought it was for the mail. + +Sara and her mom ran to the stage. They saw the mailman. He had a big truck. He had many boxes. He had Sara's box. He put it in the truck. He drove away. + +Sara screamed. She wanted her dolls. She wanted Lily. She ran after the truck. She could not catch it. She fell down. She hurt her knee. She cried. + +Her mom and dad hugged her. They said they were sorry. They said they would buy her new dolls. They said they would find Lily. They said they loved her. + +But Sara did not believe them. She did not want new dolls. She wanted her old dolls. She wanted Lily. She hated the new house. She hated the mail. She hated the stage. She was very unhappy. +Ben and Lily liked to play pretend. They had many toys and costumes to make up stories. One day, they decided to perform a show for their mom and dad. They put on masks and hats and grabbed a big box. + +"What is our show about?" Lily asked Ben. + +"It is about a skeleton who is very dependable. He helps everyone in the town with their problems. He is very smart and kind," Ben said. + +"That sounds fun. I will be the skeleton. You can be the townspeople. What problems do they have?" Lily said. + +Ben thought for a moment. He said, "One townsperson has a broken bike. Another townsperson has a lost cat. And another townsperson has a big test." + +"OK, let's start. You can introduce the show," Lily said. + +Ben cleared his throat and said, "Welcome to our show. It is called The Dependable Skeleton. Please clap and cheer for our star, Lily the skeleton!" + +Lily came out of the box and waved. She said, "Hello, I am the dependable skeleton. I like to help people. Who needs my help today?" + +Ben changed his voice and said, "I do, I do. I am a townsperson with a broken bike. Can you fix it for me?" + +Lily nodded and said, "Of course. I am good at fixing things. Let me see your bike." + +Ben pretended to give her a bike. Lily pretended to look at it and said, "I see the problem. Your chain is loose. I can tighten it with my bones. There, it is fixed. You can ride it now." + +Ben pretended to ride the bike and said, "Wow, thank you, dependable skeleton. You are amazing. How can I repay you?" + +Lily smiled and said, "You don't have to repay me. I am happy to help. Just be kind to others and have fun." + +Ben said, "I will, I will. Thank you again, dependable skeleton. You are the best." + +Lily bowed and said, "You are welcome. Who else needs my help?" + +Ben changed his voice again and said, "I do, I do. I am a townsperson with a lost cat. Can you find it for me?" + +Lily said, "Sure. I love animals. What does your cat look like?" + +Ben said, "It is black and white and fluffy. It has a bell on its collar. It likes to chase mice and birds." + +Lily said, "OK, I will look for it. Maybe it is hiding somewhere. Do you have a picture of it?" + +Ben pretended to show her a picture and said, "Here it is. Its name is Spot. I miss it so much." + +Lily said, "Don't worry. I will find it for you. I have a good sense of smell. I can follow its trail." + +Lily pretended to sniff around and said, "I smell it. It is this way. Come on, let's go." + +Ben followed her and said, "OK, let's go. I hope we find it soon." + +Lily and Ben walked around the room and pretended to look for the cat. They made noises like meow and woof and chirp. They had fun pretending to be the dependable skeleton and the townspeople. They hoped their mom and dad liked their show. +Anna and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park and pretend they were king and queen. One day, they found a shiny ring on the ground. Anna put it on her finger and said, "Look, Ben, I have a pretty ring. Do you want to marry me?" + +Ben smiled and said, "Yes, Anna, I want to marry you. You are my queen and I am your king. We can rule the park together." They hugged and kissed and ran to the slide. + +But there was a problem. A big boy named Tom saw them and wanted the ring. He was a bully and a thief. He followed them and waited for a chance to grab the ring. He thought, "That ring is mine. I will take it from the girl and sell it for candy. She is crazy to wear it in the park. She does not know how valuable it is." + +When Anna and Ben reached the slide, they saw a guard standing there. He was wearing a uniform and a hat. He looked friendly and kind. He said, "Hello, children. What are you doing here?" + +Anna and Ben said, "Hello, guard. We are playing king and queen. We are going to slide and have fun. See, we have a ring. We are married." + +The guard smiled and said, "That's very nice. But can I see your ring for a moment? I think it might be something special." + +Anna and Ben trusted the guard. They did not know he was Tom's uncle. He was also a thief and a liar. He took the ring from Anna and said, "Thank you, children. This ring is very special indeed. It belongs to the museum. It is very old and rare. I have to take it back. You can't play with it anymore." + +Anna and Ben were sad and confused. They did not understand why the guard took their ring. They said, "But, guard, that's our ring. We found it in the park. We are married. Please give it back." + +The guard said, "No, children, you are not married. You are too young to marry. And you did not find the ring. You stole it from the museum. You are crazy to think you can keep it. Now go away and don't bother me." + +The guard ran away with the ring. He met Tom and gave him the ring. They laughed and said, "We are rich. We fooled those stupid kids. They are crazy to play king and queen. They don't know anything." + +Anna and Ben cried and hugged each other. They felt betrayed and hurt. They said, "We are not crazy. We are not stupid. We are king and queen. We love each other. We will find another ring and marry again." They walked away from the park, holding hands. They did not give up on their dream. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play outside. One day, they see a big sign. The sign has a picture of a lion and a mouse. The sign says: "Come to the theater and watch the show!" + +Anna and Ben want to see the show. They ask their moms if they can go. Their moms say yes, but they have to hurry. The show starts soon. + +Anna and Ben jog to the theater. They hold hands and laugh. They are very excited. They get to the theater and find their seats. They see many people and many lights. + +The show begins. The lion and the mouse come on the stage. They are not real. They are people in furry costumes. They act and sing and dance. They tell a story about how they become friends. + +Anna and Ben watch the show. They clap and cheer. They like the lion and the mouse. They think they are funny and kind. They learn that big and small can be friends. + +The show ends. The lion and the mouse bow and wave. Anna and Ben say thank you and goodbye. They hug their moms and go home. They talk about the show. They are happy. They had a fun day. +Sara and Tom were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big mountain far away. + +"Look, Sara, a mountain!" Tom said. "Do you want to go there?" + +"Yes, Tom, I do!" Sara said. "Let's go!" + +They ran to the mountain. It was very high and hard to climb. They got tired and thirsty. They wished they had water and snacks. + +"Tom, I'm sorry," Sara said. "This was a bad idea. We should go back." + +"Sara, I'm sorry, too," Tom said. "But we can't go back. It's too late. The sun is going down. We have to stay here." + +They found a cave and cuddled together. They were scared and cold. They missed their moms and dads. + +"Tom, do you think they will find us?" Sara asked. + +"I hope so, Sara," Tom said. "But don't worry. We have each other. We are friends." + +"Tom, can we be more than friends?" Sara asked. "Can we be like mom and dad?" + +"Like mom and dad?" Tom asked. "You mean, can we marry?" + +"Yes, Tom, can we marry?" Sara asked. + +"OK, Sara, we can marry," Tom said. "But how do we do that?" + +"I don't know, Tom," Sara said. "Maybe we just say it. I marry you, Tom." + +"I marry you, Sara," Tom said. + +They hugged and kissed. They felt happy and warm. They pretended they were mom and dad. + +They did not know that their moms and dads were looking for them. They did not know that they would soon be found and taken home. They did not know that they were too young to marry. They only knew that they loved each other. And that was enough. +Lily and Sam went to the beach with Mom and Dad. They had a big bag with toys and food. Mom said they had to unpack the bag and put everything in a tidy place. Lily and Sam helped Mom and Dad unpack the bag. They took out the buckets, the shovels, the balls, the hats, and the sandwiches. They put them on a big towel on the sand. + +Then Lily saw something shiny in the water. She ran to the water and picked it up. It was a hard thing with two parts. She opened it and saw a white thing inside. She showed it to Sam. "What is this?" she asked. + +Sam looked at it and said, "It is an oyster. It is a kind of animal that lives in the water. Sometimes it has a pearl inside. A pearl is a shiny ball that is very pretty." + +Lily looked at the white thing and said, "Is this a pearl?" + +Sam shook his head and said, "No, this is not a pearl. This is just the oyster's meat. You can eat it, but it does not taste very good." + +Lily made a face and said, "I don't want to eat it. I want to find a pearl." + +She threw the oyster back into the water and said, "Let's go and find more oysters. Maybe we can find a pearl." + +Sam nodded and said, "OK, let's go. But we have to be careful not to cut ourselves on the oysters. They are very sharp." + +Lily and Sam ran along the water and looked for more oysters. They had fun finding and opening them. But they did not find any pearls. They only found more white meat. They did not eat it. They gave it to the seagulls. The seagulls liked it very much. They said, "Thank you, Lily and Sam. You are very kind." + +Lily and Sam smiled and said, "You are welcome, seagulls. We are glad you like the oysters. We like the beach. It is a very nice place." +Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. He loved to play chess with his grandpa. One day, Timmy's grandpa brought out a big chessboard with pieces that were as big as Timmy's hand. Timmy was so excited to play with them. + +As they played, Timmy's grandpa said, "Timmy, be careful not to drop the pieces. They can break very easily." Timmy nodded his head and promised to be careful. + +But as they played, Timmy accidentally dropped a piece and it broke into tiny little pieces. Timmy was sad and thought his grandpa would be mad. But his grandpa just smiled and said, "It's okay, Timmy. We can still play with the fine pieces." + +Timmy was confused and asked, "What does 'fine' mean, grandpa?" His grandpa explained that it meant something was still good even if it was small. + +From then on, Timmy made sure to be extra careful with the chess pieces. And as they played, Timmy's grandpa would sometimes say, "Uh oh, don't make the pieces shrink!" and they would both laugh. +Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to play outside in the snow. One day, he built a big stack of snowballs. Timmy was happy with his stack of snowballs. + +Suddenly, Timmy's friend Sally came over. Sally said, "Wow, Timmy, that is a big stack of snowballs!" Timmy said, "Yes, I am happy with my stack." Sally said, "Let's play a game. We will throw the snowballs at each other until one of us gets hit. Then we freeze and the other person wins." + +Timmy and Sally played the game for a while. They threw snowballs at each other and had so much fun. But then, Timmy got hit and he froze. Sally was the winner. Timmy said, "Good job, Sally. That was a fun game." Sally said, "Thanks, Timmy. Let's play again tomorrow!" And they both went home, happy and tired from playing in the snow. +Once upon a time, there was a big family. They were very happy and loved to go on vacation. They always went to the same place: a beautiful beach. It was sunny and warm, and the water was blue and clear. They loved to play in the sand and swim in the sea. + +One day, they met a wealthy man on the beach. He had a big house near the beach and lots of money. He was very friendly and invited the family to his house for a party. They had a great time and ate lots of yummy food. + +But later that day, the wealthy man got into a fight with some other people. The family was scared and didn't know what to do. They quickly left the party and went back to their own hotel. They realized that even though the man had lots of money, he wasn't very nice. From then on, they decided to stick to their own vacation traditions and not get involved with strangers. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to dance and listen to music. One day, she heard some music coming from the forest. She followed the sound and found a big tree with a bitter fruit on it. She tasted it and didn't like it at all. + +The next day, Lily went back to the forest to dance and listen to music. But this time, she heard a different sound. It was a growling noise. She looked around and saw a big bear coming towards her. Lily remembered the bitter fruit and threw it at the bear. The bear ate it and didn't like it either. So, he walked away. + +From that day on, Lily always carried some bitter fruit with her when she went to the forest. She never knew when she might need it again. But she continued to dance and listen to music, and she lived happily ever after. The end. +Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to play outside and explore the world around him. One day, he saw a green butterfly fluttering by and he decided to follow it. + +As he followed the butterfly, he came across a big, tough rock blocking his path. Timmy tried to push the rock, but it wouldn't budge. He sat down and thought about what he could do. + +Then he remembered something his mom had told him: "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again." So, Timmy got up and tried to push the rock again. This time, he pushed with all his might and the rock finally moved out of the way. + +Timmy learned that even when things are tough, if you keep trying and never give up, you can accomplish anything you set your mind to. And that was a very important lesson for him to learn. +Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to climb things. One day, he saw a big tower in the park. He wanted to climb it, but he was too scared. + +Timmy's friend, Sally, came over and saw him looking at the tower. "What's wrong, Timmy?" she asked. + +"I want to climb the tower, but I'm confused. It looks too high," Timmy replied. + +Sally smiled and said, "Don't worry, Timmy. I'll help you climb it." And with that, Sally helped Timmy climb the tower. They reached the top and looked out at the beautiful view. "Wow, this is amazing!" Timmy exclaimed. + +From that day on, Timmy wasn't scared to climb anymore. And he knew that if he ever felt confused or scared, he could always count on his friend Sally to help him. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to eat yummy candy. One day, she went to her friend Tom's house to play. Tom had a big bag of candy, and Lily wanted some. + +"Can I borrow some candy, Tom?" Lily asked. + +"Sure, you can have some," Tom replied. + +Lily was so happy and took some candy. She ate it all up and asked for more. Tom said, "I don't have any more candy, but we can go to the store in the east and buy some more." + +So, they went to the store in the east and bought more yummy candy.

One day, Lily went outside to play in the snow. She built a snowman and had so much fun. + +Suddenly, Lily saw a big dog running towards her. The dog wanted to play, but Lily was scared. She tried to run away, but the dog was too fast. + +Just when the dog was about to reach her, a modest man came and called the dog back. Lily was safe, and she thanked the man. From that day on, Lily made sure to always be careful when playing outside. +Once upon a time, there was an old rabbit who lived underground. He liked to hop around and eat carrots. One day, he heard a loud noise outside his home. It was a fox! The fox wanted to eat the rabbit for dinner. + +The rabbit was scared and didn't know what to do. He decided to call his friends for help. But his friends were too far away and couldn't hear him. The fox got closer and closer. + +The old rabbit realized that he should have made friends with the other animals in the forest. He learned that it's important to be kind to others and to make friends. Unfortunately, it was too late for him. The fox caught the rabbit and had him for dinner. The moral of the story is to always be kind and make friends, so you won't be alone when you need help. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to go to the beach and play in the sand. One day, she saw a pink seal on the shore. The seal was so cute and Lily wanted to play with it. + +Lily tried to get closer to the seal, but it kept moving away. So she decided to gather some fish for the seal to eat. She ran to the nearby fish market and asked the fisherman for some fish. The fisherman gave her a big bag of fish and Lily ran back to the beach. + +When she got back to the beach, the seal was still there. Lily gave the seal some fish and it started to eat.

But then, Lily slipped and fell on the wet grass. She was hurt and started to cry. + +Her mom picked her up and said she was sorry for not listening to her about the rain. They went back home and snuggled up with some hot cocoa. Lily forgave her mom and they both felt better. The end. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She had a special mirror that was very different from any other mirror. It was unique! Every time she looked at herself in the mirror, she felt happy because it made her look pretty. + +One day, Lily's mom asked her if she had eaten all the cookies. Lily said yes, but that was a lie. She had eaten one more cookie than she was supposed to. Later, she looked at herself in the mirror and felt guilty for lying. + +Lily learned that it's always better to tell the truth because lying can make you feel bad. She also realized that she was still unique, even if she made a mistake. From that day on, she promised to always be honest and to look at herself in the mirror with a smile. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily.

Mommy said, "Don't worry, I'll hold your bike while we fix the tire." + +Mommy held the bike steady while Lily helped her fix the tire. After they were done, Lily was so happy that she could ride her bike again. She gave her mommy a big hug and said, "Thank you for holding my bike, mommy!" +Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to eat cookies. One day, his mom made some delicious cookies and let Timmy have one. Timmy's eyes got big with excitement as he took a big bite. + +"Mmm, this cookie is so yummy!" Timmy exclaimed. + +But then, Timmy's little sister came into the room and wanted a cookie too. Timmy didn't want to share, so he said no. + +"Please let me have a cookie," his sister begged. + +But Timmy still said no. His sister started to cry and Timmy felt bad. He decided to give her a cookie after all. + +But when he went to get another cookie, he accidentally knocked the whole plate onto the floor. The cookies broke into a million pieces and were ruined.

One day, she saw a lot of traffic on the road. She felt sad because she couldn't ride her bike with so many cars around. + +But then, Lily's mom came up with an idea. She took Lily to a big park where there was no traffic. Lily was so happy! She rode her bike all around the park and had so much fun. + +After a while, Lily's mom brought her a snack. It was a spoiled apple. Lily didn't like it because it didn't taste good. But she was still happy because she got to ride her bike in the park. The end. +Once upon a time, there was a big, hungry dog. He was very eager to eat some meat. He walked around the neighborhood, looking for something tasty to bite. + +Suddenly, he saw a little girl with a big sandwich. The sandwich had a lot of meat inside.
