She thought that would make him stop playing and cry. + +But before she could do that, her mom saw her and stopped her. She said, "Lily, what are you doing? That's not a nice way to act.

The bird flew to them and chirped loudly. The children listened carefully and the bird urged them to come with him. + +The children followed the bird and soon they saw the dead dinosaur. They were amazed by its size and they felt sad too. They decided to build a monument to remember the dinosaur forever. +Once upon a time, there was a poor little mouse named Timmy. Timmy lived in a cozy hole in the wall of a big house. One day, Timmy found a match and decided to light it up. He wanted to see better in his dark hole. + +But the match was too hot and it burned Timmy's little paw. He cried and cried until he settled down and fell asleep. The next day, Timmy woke up feeling better. He realized that he didn't need a match to see. His eyes had adjusted to the dark. + +From that day on, Timmy never played with matches again. He learned that they were dangerous and could hurt him. Instead, he made friends with the other mice in the house and they lived happily ever after. +Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy had a dog named Spot. Spot had a long, furry paw. Timmy loved Spot very much. + +One day, Timmy and Spot went for a walk in the park. Timmy saw a big, scary dog. He began to worry that the dog might hurt Spot. "Oh no, Spot! That dog looks mean. I worry he might hurt you," said Timmy. + +Spot licked Timmy's face with his long, furry paw. "Don't worry, Timmy. I'll protect you," said Spot bravely. Timmy felt better and they continued their walk. From that day on, Timmy knew he didn't have to worry because Spot was always there to protect him. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to play with her toys and her mommy. One day, Lily was playing with her favorite doll when she accidentally tore its dress. + +"Oh no!" cried Lily. "Dolly's dress is torn!" + +"Don't worry, sweetie," said mommy. "We can fix it together." + +Lily and her mommy sat down and sewed the dress back together. While they were sewing, Lily heard a loud noise outside. She looked out the window and saw a big truck driving by. + +"Wow!" said Lily. "That truck is so loud!" + +"Yes, it is," said mommy. "But we can still hear each other because we have good ears." + +Lily smiled and hugged her mommy. She was happy that dolly's dress was fixed and that she could still hear her mommy's voice even though the truck was loud. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved going to the shop with her mom. One day, they went to the shop to buy some fruits. They were very lucky because they found a big, juicy watermelon. + +When they got home, Lily's mom cut the watermelon into little pieces. But, they forgot to eat some of them and left them on the table. The next day, Lily saw that the watermelon pieces had started to rot. She didn't like it and asked her mom to throw them away. + +From that day on, Lily always made sure to eat all her fruits before they started to rot. She didn't want to waste any food. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. Lily loved sausages. One day, her mommy made her a yummy sausage for breakfast. Lily was so excited!

But her mommy said, "Don't worry, Lily. Let's wipe it off with a napkin." So they wiped the sausage off her shirt and it was all clean again. + +Lily was happy again and finished her yummy breakfast.

Jack loved to play in the snow. He would build snowmen and throw snowballs with his friends. But one day, Jack saw that his sled was broken. He needed to fix it so he could play in the snow. + +Jack went to his dad and asked him to fix the sled. His dad said he would fix it later. Jack got upset and decided to fix it himself. He found some tools and started to work on the sled. + +But Jack didn't know how to fix the sled properly. He used the wrong tools and made it worse. When he tried to ride the sled, it broke completely. Jack was sad and didn't know what to do. + +The moral of the story is that sometimes it's better to ask for help instead of trying to do things on your own. Jack was too naughty and didn't listen to his dad's advice. Now he couldn't play in the snow anymore. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. One day, she found a bottle of ink in her room. She was very curious about it and wanted to know what it was for. So, she went to her mom and asked, "Mommy, what is this black stuff?" + +Her mom replied, "That's called ink, sweetie. It's used for writing and drawing." + +Lily was very excited and wanted to use the ink to draw a picture. But when she started drawing, she realized that the ink made her drawing look gloomy and sad. + +Feeling disappointed, Lily went back to her mom and said, "Mommy, my drawing looks sad. What should I do?" + +Her mom replied, "Sometimes, things don't turn out the way we want them to. But that's okay. You can always try again and reveal your true talent. Remember, it's not about the ink or the colors you use, it's about the love and passion you put into your art." + +Lily realized that her mom was right. She tried again and this time, she drew a beautiful picture that made her happy. From that day on, Lily learned that it's not about the tools or materials you use, but about the effort and love you put into your work. +Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Timmy. Timmy loved to play with his toys and go on adventures. One day, he went to the park with his mom and saw a big, colorful kite. + +"Mommy, can we get a kite like that?" Timmy asked. + +"Of course, we can!" Mommy replied. So they went to the store and bought a kite. + +The next day, Timmy and his dad went to the lab where his dad worked. Timmy was amazed by all the cool machines and tools. + +"Daddy, can we fly our kite here?" Timmy asked. + +"Sure, let's go to the rooftop!" Daddy replied. They went up to the rooftop and flew their kite. It was a great day! +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. One day, she went to the store with her mommy to buy cereal. While they were there, Lily saw a new friend. Her name was Sarah. They said hello and decided to meet at the park later. + +At the park, they played on the swings and had a picnic with their cereal.

Lily's mom called her on the phone and said it was time to come home. + +Lily didn't want to leave her friends, but she knew she had to go home. She started to run as fast as she could so she could get home quickly. The park was very dark and it was hard to see, but Lily kept running until she saw her house. + +When she got home, her mom gave her a big hug and said she was proud of how fast she ran. Lily felt happy and proud too. She knew that even though it was dark outside, she could still run and get home safely. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. She loved to play with her toys and her favorite was a red car. One day, Lily's mom woke her up early in the morning and said, "Lily, we need to go to the store. Let's get in the automobile." + +Lily got excited and grabbed her red car toy. "Can my car come too?" she asked. Her mom smiled and said, "Of course, it can come too." + +When they arrived at the store, Lily saw a big pile of candy. She wanted some but her mom said no. Lily felt ashamed because she had asked for something she couldn't have. As they walked back to the automobile, Lily hugged her red car toy and said, "I'm sorry for asking for candy. I love you more than candy." + +Her mom heard her and smiled. "That's very sweet, Lily. Let's go home and have a snack together." And so, they drove home in their automobile with Lily's red car toy by her side. +Sara was a little girl who liked to ask many questions. She wanted to know everything about the world. One day, she saw her dad put on a nice suit and a tie. She asked him, "Where are you going, dad?" + +"I'm going to a meeting, Sara. It's very important. I have to talk to some people about my work," he said. + +"What is a meeting, dad? Can I go with you?" she asked. + +"A meeting is when people sit and talk about things. Sometimes they agree, sometimes they don't. No, you can't go with me, Sara. It's not for kids. You have to stay with mom and play with your toys," he said. + +Sara was not happy. She wanted to see the meeting. She wanted to hear what people talked about. She wanted to learn new things. She thought her dad was hiding something from her. She decided to follow him. + +She put on her coat and her shoes and sneaked out of the house. She ran after her dad's car. She was very fast and very quiet. She did not see the big dog that was barking at her. She did not hear the car that was honking at her. She only saw her dad's car. + +She followed him to a big building. It was very tall and very dark. She saw her dad go inside. She waited for a moment. Then she ran inside too. She looked for her dad. She saw many doors and many people. She did not know where to go. She was scared and lost. + +She opened a door and saw a big room. There were many people sitting and talking. They looked angry and serious. She saw her dad. He was standing and talking. He looked angry and serious too. She wanted to ask him what was going on. She wanted to say hello. She walked towards him. + +But before she could reach him, someone saw her. It was a man with a big beard and a loud voice. He pointed at her and shouted, "Who is that? What is she doing here? This is a private meeting!" + +Everyone looked at Sara. They stopped talking. They stared at her. Sara felt very small and very scared. She did not know what to do. She wished she had stayed with mom and played with her toys. She wished she had not followed her dad. She wished she had not asked so many questions. +Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play in the kitchen. They find a big bowl and a spoon. They see some flour, some sugar, some eggs and some milk. They want to make a cake. + +"Let's mix everything in the bowl," Tom says. "Then we can bake it in the oven." + +"OK," Jen says. "But we have to be careful. The oven is hot. And we have to wait for the cake to be ready." + +They pour the flour, the sugar, the eggs and the milk in the bowl. They stir with the spoon. They make a mess. They laugh. + +They put the bowl in the oven. They turn on the timer. They sit on the floor. They wait. + +They do not know that they forgot something. They forgot the baking powder. The baking powder makes the cake rise. Without it, the cake will be flat and hard. + +The timer rings. Tom and Jen run to the oven. They open the door. They see the cake. It is not a cake. It is a brick. + +"Oh no," Tom says. "What did we do wrong?" + +"I don't know," Jen says. "Maybe we mixed too much or too little." + +They are sad. They are ignorant. They do not know how to make a cake. They wish they had asked Mom or Dad for help. +Tom and Mia are friends who like to play games. One day, they find a shiny ring in the park.

They play one more time, and Tom picks paper, and Mia picks scissors. Mia wins the third round. Tom is very, very sad, and he starts to cry. + +Mia feels sorry for Tom. She says, "Don't cry, Tom. It's just a game. You are a good player, and you are my friend. Here, you can have the ring. I don't need it." She gives the ring to Tom, and hugs him. + +Tom stops crying, and smiles. He says, "Thank you, Mia. You are very kind, and you are my friend too. But I don't want the ring either. It's too fragile, and it might break. Let's play something else." He gives the ring back to Mia, and they hold hands. + +They leave the ring in the park, and go to play on the swings. They are happy, and they share their toys and snacks. They learn that friendship is more important than a shiny ring. +Lily and Max were playing in the park. They liked to swing and slide and run. They saw a big dog with a ball in its mouth. The dog was brown and fluffy and friendly. Lily and Max wanted to pet the dog and play with the ball. + +They ran to the dog and said hello. The dog wagged its tail and licked their faces. Lily and Max laughed and hugged the dog. They took the ball from the dog and threw it. The dog chased the ball and brought it back. They played for a long time. + +But then they heard a loud voice. It was a man with a hat and a leash. He was looking for the dog. He saw Lily and Max and the dog and the ball. He was angry and worried. He shouted at Lily and Max. + +"Hey, what are you doing with my dog? That's my ball! Give it back to me! You can't take things that don't belong to you!" + +Lily and Max were scared and confused. They didn't know the man or the dog. They thought the dog was alone and wanted to play. They didn't mean to take the ball. They tried to explain. + +"Sorry, mister. We didn't know. The dog was nice to us. We just wanted to have fun. We didn't want to make you mad." + +The man calmed down and looked at Lily and Max. He saw that they were just kids who liked animals. He felt sorry for yelling at them. He smiled and said sorry too. + +"It's okay, kids. I'm sorry I scared you. I was worried about my dog. He ran away from me and I couldn't find him. He loves to play with his ball. He's very friendly, but he's also very fast. His name is Buddy. Do you want to pet him again?" + +Lily and Max nodded and smiled. They petted Buddy and gave him the ball. The man thanked them for playing with his dog. He put the leash on Buddy and said goodbye. Lily and Max said goodbye too. They waved at the man and the dog as they left. They were happy that they made a new friend. They went back to the swing and the slide and the run. They had fun in the park. +One day, a little lion cub was playing with his friends in the savanna. He wanted to show them how loud he could roar, so he opened his mouth and tried to make a big noise. But instead of a roar, he only made a squeak. His friends laughed at him and said he was not a real lion. + +The little lion cub felt sad and ran away. He found a shady tree and hid under it. He wished he could roar like his father, the king of the savanna. He heard a rustle in the leaves and saw a friendly monkey. The monkey asked him why he was crying. + +"I can't roar like a lion," the cub said. "My friends make fun of me." + +The monkey smiled and said, "Don't worry, little one. You are still young and learning. You will grow up and roar louder than anyone. You just need some practice and some courage. And maybe some cocoa." + +"Cocoa?" the cub asked. + +"Yes, cocoa. It is a warm and sweet drink that makes you feel happy and strong. I have some in my home. Come with me and I will share it with you." + +The cub followed the monkey to his home in the trees. There, the monkey gave him a cup of cocoa and taught him some tricks to make his voice louder and deeper. The cub drank the cocoa and practiced his roar. He felt a warm and fuzzy feeling in his chest and throat. He tried to roar again and this time, he made a loud and proud sound. + +"Wow, you did it!" the monkey cheered. "You are a real lion!" + +The cub thanked the monkey and said, "You are a real friend. You helped me when I was sad and taught me something new. You are very kind and smart." + +The monkey hugged the cub and said, "You are welcome, little one. You are very brave and honest. You are very special and fun." + +The cub and the monkey became good friends and played together in the savanna. The cub learned to roar louder and louder every day. His friends stopped laughing at him and admired him instead. He also learned to share his cocoa with them and teach them what the monkey taught him. He was happy and proud to be a lion. + +The moral of the story is: Don't give up on your dreams and don't let others bring you down. You can achieve anything with practice and courage. And sometimes, a little cocoa and a good friend can make a big difference. +Anna likes to play with her dolls. She has many dolls of different sizes and colors.

I would love to play with your dolls. I will come soon. Bye." + +Anna is very happy. She runs to her room and takes out her dolls from the box. She puts them on her bed and makes them talk to each other. She pretends they are having a tea party. + +Soon, Lily arrives at Anna's house. She knocks on the door and Anna opens it. She says, "Hi, Lily. Come in. I have been waiting for you." + +Lily says, "Hi, Anna. Thank you for inviting me. Your dolls are very pretty. Can I play with them?" + +Anna says, "Of course, Lily. You can play with any doll you like. They are all my friends." + +Lily and Anna go to Anna's room and start playing with the dolls. They have a lot of fun. They make the dolls dance, sing, and tell jokes. They also make them walk in a zigzag on the floor. They laugh and giggle. + +Anna and Lily are very happy. They are good friends. They love playing with dolls. They play until it is time for Lily to go home. They hug each other and say, "Bye, bye. See you soon." + +Anna puts her dolls back in the box. She is very organized. She says, "Thank you, dolls. You are very nice. I had a great time with Lily. I hope she will come again." +One day, a little fish was swimming in the sea. He saw a big rock with many oysters on it. He wanted to eat an oyster, but he did not know how to open it. He tried to bite it, but it was too hard. He tried to push it, but it did not move. He was very hungry and sad. + +Then, he saw a big crab walking by. He asked the crab, "Can you help me open an oyster?" The crab said, "Yes, I can. I have a strong claw that can strike it and break it. But you have to give me half of the oyster if I help you." The little fish agreed, and the crab followed him to the rock. + +The crab used his claw to strike an oyster with a loud crack. The oyster opened, and the crab and the fish saw the juicy meat inside. The crab said, "This is a big oyster. I will take the bigger half, and you can have the smaller half." The fish said, "But that is not fair. You said we would share it half and half." The crab said, "Too bad. I did the hard work, so I deserve the bigger half. If you don't like it, you can find another oyster." + +The fish was very angry and hurt. He said, "You are not a helpful friend. You are a greedy and mean crab. I don't want to share anything with you." He swam away, looking for another oyster. The crab was happy and ate the bigger half of the oyster. But as he was eating, he felt a sharp pain in his mouth. He spat out the oyster, and saw a shiny pearl in it. He realized that he had bitten the pearl and hurt his tooth. He said, "Oh no, this is a bad oyster. It has a hard and useless thing in it. I wish I had the smaller half of the oyster, that had no pearl in it." + +The moral of the story is: Be fair and kind when you share with others, or you may end up with something worse. +Anna and Ben are twins. They like to play outside with their dog, Spot. Spot is furry and friendly. He likes to run and jump and lick their faces. + +One day, Anna and Ben find a big feather on the grass. It is white and soft. They wonder where it came from. + +"Maybe it is from a bird," Anna says. + +"Maybe it is from an angel," Ben says. + +They decide to keep the feather and play with it. They tickle each other with the feather. They make it fly in the air. They pretend it is a magic wand. + +Spot watches them and wags his tail. He wants to join the fun. He runs towards them and grabs the feather in his mouth. He shakes his head and makes the feather rip. + +"Oh no, Spot!" Anna and Ben cry. "You broke our feather!" + +Spot drops the feather and looks at them with his big eyes. He does not understand why they are sad. He thinks he was playing too. + +Anna and Ben are upset. They liked their feather. They do not want to play with Spot anymore. They turn away from him and cross their arms. + +Spot feels sorry. He likes Anna and Ben. He wants to make them happy. He looks around and sees another feather on the grass. It is brown and long. He picks it up and brings it to them. He drops it at their feet and wags his tail. + +Anna and Ben look at the new feather. It is different from the old one, but it is still nice. They smile and thank Spot. They forgive him and hug him. They spend the rest of the day playing with the new feather and Spot. They are happy again. +Tim and Mia were playing with their toy phone. They liked to pretend they were talking to aliens from other planets. They made funny noises and asked silly questions. + +"Ring, ring, ring!" Tim said, holding the phone to his ear. "Hello, is this the universe?" + +"Yes, this is the universe," Mia said, using a deep voice. "What do you want?" + +"I want to see the stars and the moon and the rockets," Tim said. "Can you take me there?" + +"Maybe," Mia said. "But you have to do something for me first." + +"What is it?" Tim asked. + +"You have to give me your cookie," Mia said. "The one you got from Mommy." + +Tim thought for a moment. He loved his cookie, but he also wanted to see the universe. He decided to share his cookie with Mia. + +"OK, I will give you half of my cookie," he said. "But you have to take me to the universe now." + +"Deal," Mia said. She took the phone and the cookie from Tim. She ate the whole cookie and threw the phone on the floor. + +"Ha, ha, ha!" she laughed. "You are so silly, Tim. There is no universe on the phone. I tricked you." + +Tim felt sad and angry. He wanted his cookie and his phone back. He tried to grab them from Mia, but she pushed him away. + +"Go away, Tim," she said. "You are not my friend anymore." + +Tim started to cry. He felt tired and lonely. He wished he had never played with Mia. He wished he had never called the universe. +Lily was a good dog.

He taught her many tricks, like sit, stay, roll over, and reverse. + +One day, Sam and Lily went to the park. They saw many other dogs and people there.

That is a hard trick!" + +Lily smiled and licked Sam's face. She was proud of herself. She learned to reverse by watching Sam. When Sam drove his car, he sometimes had to reverse to park or turn. Lily saw him do that and copied him. She used her paws to move backwards, just like Sam used his feet. + +Sam hugged Lily and gave her a treat. He was very impressed by Lily's skill. He told her she was the best dog in the world. Lily agreed. She loved Sam and he loved her. They were very happy together. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the garden. They see many flowers. Some are red, some are yellow, some are pink. The flowers smell good. + +"Look, Ben, this flower is big and purple. It is a bloom!" Anna says. She points to a flower that has many petals. + +"What is a bloom?" Ben asks. He does not know this word. + +"A bloom is a flower that is open and pretty. It is not a bud. A bud is a flower that is small and closed. Do you see the buds?" Anna explains. She shows Ben some buds that are green and round. + +"Oh, I see. The buds will be blooms soon. They will be open and pretty too," Ben says. He likes to learn new words. + +"Yes, they will. But we have to be careful. We cannot touch the flowers. They are not ours. They belong to the lady who lives here. She is nice, but she does not like it when we pick her flowers. She says they are her babies," Anna says. She remembers the last time they picked some flowers and the lady was angry. + +"OK, we will not touch them. We will just look at them and smell them. They are very nice," Ben says. He agrees with Anna. + +They play in the garden for a while. They see some bees and butterflies. They hear some birds and frogs. They have fun. + +Then they hear a voice.

She smiles at them. + +"Yes, we do. They are very pretty. We like the blooms and the buds," Anna says. She smiles back. + +"We do not touch them. We just look at them and smell them," Ben says. He wants to show the lady that they are good. + +"That is very nice of you. Thank you for being respectful. Do you want to help me water them? I have a hose and a sprinkler. It is fun," the lady says. She invites them to join her. + +"Yes, please. We would love to help you. Thank you," Anna and Ben say. They are happy. They follow the lady to the hose and the sprinkler. They help her water the flowers. They also get wet and laugh. They have more fun. +Tom and Lily were twins who liked to play in their room. They had many toys and books to have fun with. One day, they decided to look for a new book to read on their bookcase. + +"Look, Lily, this book has a big bear on the cover!" Tom said, holding up a book. + +"Let me see, Tom!" Lily said, reaching for the book. + +But Tom was too fast and ran away with the book. Lily chased him around the room, but Tom was good at hiding. He went behind the curtains, under the bed, and inside the closet. + +"Tom, come out! Share the book with me!" Lily said, looking everywhere. + +"No, Lily, this is my book! Find your own book!" Tom said, giggling. + +Lily was sad and angry. She wanted to read the book too. She sat on the floor and cried. Tom heard her cry and felt sorry. He came out of the closet with the book. + +"Lily, don't cry. I'm sorry I was mean. Here, you can have the book," Tom said, giving her the book. + +"Really, Tom? Thank you. You are a good brother," Lily said, wiping her tears. + +They hugged and smiled. They opened the book and read it together. The book was about a big bear who lived in the woods. He had many friends and adventures. The twins liked the book. It was a mild day, and they were happy. +Sara and Ben were playing with their toy cars in the garden. They liked to make them go fast and make loud noises. Sara had a red car and Ben had a blue car. They pretended they were racing on a big road. + +But then, Sara's car stopped moving. She tried to push it, but it did not work. She looked at it and saw that one of the wheels was broken. She felt sad and helpless. She did not know how to fix it. + +"Ben, Ben, look at my car!" she cried. "It is broken! It cannot go!" + +Ben came over and looked at Sara's car. He saw the broken wheel and had an idea. He remembered that his dad had a toolbox in the garage. He said to Sara, "Don't worry, Sara. I can help you. I can restore your car. Come with me." + +He took Sara's hand and they ran to the garage. Ben opened the toolbox and found a screwdriver and a new wheel. He used the screwdriver to take off the broken wheel and put on the new one.

The flowers smelled good, like perfume. Sara wanted to pick some flowers for her mom. She leaned on the tree and reached for a flower. + +"Be careful, Sara!" Ben said. "The tree is scary. It has thorns and bees. They can hurt you." + +Sara did not listen to Ben. She wanted the flower. She leaned more and more on the tree. Then, she felt a sharp pain in her hand. A thorn had poked her. She cried out loud. + +"Ow, ow, ow! It hurts!" Sara said. She let go of the flower and ran to Ben. Ben hugged her and looked at her hand. It was red and bleeding. + +"I told you the tree was scary, Sara. You should have listened to me. Come on, let's go to the nurse. She will make your hand better." Ben said. He took Sara's hand and led her to the nurse's office. + +The nurse cleaned Sara's hand and put a band-aid on it. She gave Sara a lollipop and a sticker. She told Sara to be more careful next time and to listen to her friends. + +Sara felt sorry for not listening to Ben. She thanked the nurse and Ben. She learned that some things are not worth getting hurt for. She also learned that Ben was a good friend who cared for her. She gave Ben a hug and a flower. But not from the scary tree. From the nice garden. +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big house with a high fence. They wonder who lives there. + +"Maybe a rich person lives there," Lily says. "Maybe they have many toys and candy." + +"Let's go and see," Ben says. "Maybe they will share with us." + +They walk to the fence and look for a hole. They find one and crawl through. They see a big garden with flowers and trees. They also see a big dog. + +"Wow, look at the dog," Lily says. "It is so big and fluffy." + +"Maybe it is friendly," Ben says. "Let's go and pet it." + +They walk to the dog. The dog sees them and barks. It is not friendly. It runs to them and tries to bite them. + +"Help, help!" Lily and Ben scream. "The dog is angry!" + +They run back to the fence. They see a man come out of the house. He is holding a blanket. + +"Hey, you kids, what are you doing here?" the man shouts. "This is my property. Get out of here!" + +He throws the blanket over the fence. It lands on Lily and Ben. + +"Sorry, sorry!" Lily and Ben say. "We just wanted to see your house. We didn't mean to bother you or your dog." + +They crawl out of the blanket and the fence. They run away from the park. + +They are scared and sad. They don't want to play anymore. + +They learn a lesson. They should not go to places where they are not welcome. They should not judge people by their houses. They should be happy with what they have. +Mia and Leo were twins who liked to play with their toys. But Mia was spoiled and did not like to share. She always wanted to have the best toys and the most toys. Leo was kind and did not mind to share. He just wanted to have fun with his sister. + +One day, their mom gave them a new toy to play with. It was a big truck with a handle that made it move and make noises. Mia and Leo were very happy and thanked their mom. But Mia wanted to play with the truck alone. She grabbed the handle and said, "This is mine! You can't have it!" + +Leo was sad and asked, "Please, can I play with the truck too? We can take turns and have fun together." But Mia said, "No! Go away! This is mine!" She pushed Leo away and made the truck move and make noises. Leo cried and ran to their mom. + +Their mom saw what happened and was angry. She said, "Mia, that is not nice! You have to share with your brother. He is your twin and your friend. You can't be spoiled and selfish. Give him the truck and say sorry." + +Mia did not want to listen. She said, "No! This is mine! I don't want to share!" She held the handle tight and made the truck move and make noises louder. But she did not see that the handle was broken. It snapped and fell off the truck. The truck stopped moving and making noises. Mia was shocked and sad. She had broken the new toy. + +Leo saw what happened and felt sorry for his sister. He said, "Mia, are you okay? Don't cry. It was an accident. Maybe we can fix the truck. Here, you can have my teddy bear. He is soft and cuddly. I love you, Mia." + +Mia looked at Leo and realized that he was nice and kind. She felt bad for being spoiled and selfish. She said, "Thank you, Leo. You are a good brother. I love you too. I'm sorry for being mean. Can we share the truck and the teddy bear? Can we play together?" + +Leo smiled and hugged his sister. He said, "Yes, we can. We can have fun together. Sharing is caring." Their mom saw them and was happy. She said, "That's right, my sweet twins. Sharing is caring. I'm proud of you. Now, let's see if we can fix the truck. Maybe we can find a new handle." + +They all went to the garage and looked for a new handle. They found one that fit the truck and made it work again. They cheered and clapped. They thanked their mom and went back to their room. They played with the truck and the teddy bear and had fun together. They learned to share and not to be spoiled. They were happy twins. The end. +Lily was sad. She had a bad day at school. Some kids were mean to her and said she was too small and slow. She ran home and cried in her room. + +Her mom heard her and came to see her. She hugged her and said, "What's wrong, my sweetie?" + +Lily told her mom what happened. She said, "They hurt my feelings. They don't like me. I don't want to go to school anymore." + +Her mom comforted her and said, "I'm sorry, my love. They were wrong to say those things. You are not too small or slow. You are smart and kind and brave. I like you very much. And so do your friends and your teacher. Don't let them make you feel bad. You are wonderful just the way you are." + +She took her to the living room and sat with her on the big pink armchair. She gave her a warm blanket and a cup of milk. She read her a story about a princess who faced many challenges but never gave up. She made her laugh and smile. + +Lily felt better. She thanked her mom and said, "You are the best mom ever. I love you." + +Her mom kissed her and said, "I love you too, my darling. Now, let's have some cookies and watch your favorite show." +Tom and Lily wanted to help Mom and Dad. They were moving to a new house. Mom and Dad had many boxes to load in the big truck. Tom and Lily could not lift the boxes. They were too heavy. But they could carry some toys and books. + +Mom and Dad said they could take some things from the attic. The attic was at the top of the house. It had a ladder and a door. Tom and Lily climbed the ladder and opened the door. They saw many things in the attic. Some things were old and dusty. Some things were shiny and pretty. Some things were scary and spooky. + +Tom and Lily saw a big doll with a cracked face. It had a red dress and black hair. It looked like it wanted to bite them. They saw a clown with a big nose and a wide smile. It had a horn and a hat. It looked like it wanted to laugh at them. They saw a spider with long legs and many eyes. It had a web and a fly. It looked like it wanted to catch them. + +Tom and Lily were scared. They did not want to stay in the attic. They did not want to take anything from the attic. They ran to the ladder and closed the door. They told Mom and Dad they did not like the attic. They said it was scary and spooky. Mom and Dad hugged them and said it was okay. They said they did not have to go to the attic again. They said they could help with other things. + +Tom and Lily were happy. They helped Mom and Dad load the truck. They took their toys and books. They said goodbye to the old house and the scary attic. They said hello to the new house and the fun yard. They were excited to see their new room and their new friends. They were not scared anymore. They were brave and helpful. +Ben liked to design things with his crayons and paper. He made cars, houses, rockets and animals. One day, he wanted to design a frog. He looked at a picture of a frog and tried to copy it. He drew a big green circle for the body, two small circles for the eyes, four lines for the legs and a curve for the mouth. + +"Look, Mom, I made a frog!" he said, showing his paper to his mom. + +"That's very good, Ben," his mom said. "But where is the nose?" + +Ben looked at his frog. He did not see a nose. He looked at the picture. He saw a tiny dot for the nose. + +"Oh, I forgot the nose," he said. He took his black crayon and made a dot on his frog. + +But he made the dot too big. It looked like a hole. He tried to erase it with his hand, but it only made a smudge. He tried to cover it with another green circle, but it looked like a wart. He tried to draw another mouth, but it looked like a frown. + +His frog was ruined. He felt sad and angry. He tore his paper in half and threw it on the floor. + +"I don't like frogs!" he shouted. "They are ugly and stupid!" + +He ran to his room and slammed the door. + +His mom sighed and picked up the pieces of paper. She felt sorry for Ben, but she also felt annoyed. She wished he would be more persistent and not give up so easily. She hoped he would learn to design better frogs and be happier. +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play. They had a big dog named Spot who was very friendly. One day, they went to the park with their mom and Spot. They saw a big slide, a swing, and a seesaw. They wanted to try them all. + +Lily ran to the slide and climbed up the ladder. She looked down and saw Ben waiting for her. She smiled and winked at him. She liked to wink because it made her feel clever. She slid down fast and landed on the grass. She laughed and said, "That was fun!" + +Ben ran to the swing and pushed it hard. He swung back and forth, higher and higher. He felt the wind in his hair and the sun on his face. He looked at Lily and winked at her. He liked to wink because it made him feel brave. He jumped off the swing and flew in the air. He landed on his feet and said, "That was fun!" + +Lily and Ben ran to the seesaw and sat on each end. They bounced up and down, making each other go high and low. They looked at each other and winked. They liked to wink because it made them feel happy. They saw Spot running towards them. He barked and wagged his tail. He wanted to play too. + +Spot was a big dog, but he thought he was a small dog. He jumped on the seesaw and tried to sit in the middle. He was too heavy and made the seesaw tip over. Lily and Ben fell off and rolled on the ground. Spot licked their faces and wagged his tail. He thought he was funny. + +Lily and Ben giggled and hugged Spot. They were not mad at him. They knew he was just a naughty dog who loved them. They looked at their mom and winked. She smiled and shook her head. She knew they were just naughty twins who loved her. She said, "That was fun!" +Lily and her mom were going to visit grandma. They packed a bag with some clothes and toys and went outside to wait for the taxi. Lily was very excited to see grandma, who lived far away in another city. She hugged her mom and asked, "When will the taxi come, mom?" + +"Soon, honey, soon," her mom said, looking at her phone. "The taxi man said he is almost here. He will beep his horn when he sees us." + +Lily nodded and looked around. She saw a big yellow car with a sign on top. It looked like a taxi. She pointed and said, "Mom, look, is that the taxi?" + +Her mom looked and shook her head. "No, sweetie, that's not our taxi. That's a different taxi. Our taxi will have a sticker with a flower on the door. That's how we know it belongs to us." + +Lily said, "Oh, okay," and kept looking. She saw another car with a sign on top, but it was white and had no sticker. She said, "Mom, look, is that the taxi?" + +Her mom looked and shook her head again. "No, honey, that's not our taxi either. That's another different taxi. Our taxi will have a sticker with a flower on the door. Remember?" + +Lily said, "Yes, mom, I remember," and kept looking. She was starting to feel a little bored and impatient. She wondered why their taxi was taking so long. She hoped they would not miss their train to grandma's city. + +Then she heard a loud beep. She turned and saw a big yellow car with a sign on top and a sticker with a flower on the door. It stopped in front of them and the driver rolled down the window. He smiled and said, "Hello, are you Lily and her mom? I'm your taxi man. Sorry I'm late, there was a lot of traffic. Are you ready to go?" + +Lily and her mom smiled back and said, "Yes, we are ready. Thank you for coming." They got in the car and put their bag in the trunk. Lily buckled her seat belt and held her mom's hand. She felt calm and happy. She said, "Mom, look, we found our taxi. It has a sticker with a flower on the door. It belongs to us." + +Her mom said, "Yes, sweetie, we did. And you know what? You belong to me. And I belong to you. And we both belong to grandma. And she belongs to us. And we are going to see her soon. Isn't that wonderful?" + +Lily said, "Yes, mom, it is. I love you. And I love grandma. And I love our taxi." + +The end. +Lily and Ben were best friends. They liked to play pretend. One day, they decided to play marriage. Lily wore a white dress and a flower crown. Ben wore a black suit and a tie. + +They walked to the garden, where they had set up some chairs and a table. They invited their stuffed animals and dolls to be their guests. Lily's mom was the pretend priest. She smiled and said, "Do you, Lily, take Ben to be your pretend husband?" + +Lily nodded and said, "I do." + +The mom said, "Do you, Ben, take Lily to be your pretend wife?" + +Ben nodded and said, "I do." + +The mom said, "You may now kiss the bride." + +Lily and Ben leaned in and gave each other a peck on the cheek. The stuffed animals and dolls clapped and cheered. Lily and Ben bowed and thanked them. + +But then, Lily's little brother, Tom, came running into the garden. He was angry and jealous. He wanted to play with Lily and Ben. He grabbed Lily's flower crown and threw it on the ground. He stepped on it and broke it. Lily gasped and cried. Her flower crown was fragile and beautiful. She loved it very much. + +"Tom, stop it! That's not nice!" Ben shouted. He ran to Lily and hugged her. He tried to pick up the pieces of the flower crown. + +Tom laughed and said, "You are silly. You can't play marriage. You are too small. Marriage is for big people." + +Lily's mom heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. She saw Tom being mean and Lily being sad. She scolded Tom and told him to apologize. She said, "Tom, you are wrong. Lily and Ben can play whatever they want. They are using their imagination and having fun. You should not ruin their game. You should say sorry and be kind." + +Tom pouted and said, "Sorry." + +Lily's mom hugged Lily and said, "Don't worry, sweetie. We can make you a new flower crown. You are still a beautiful bride." + +Lily smiled and said, "Thank you, mommy." + +She looked at Ben and said, "Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend." + +Ben smiled and said, "You are welcome, Lily. You are a good friend too." + +They kissed again and hugged. They continued to play marriage. They were happy. +Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. But they have one rule: they must not wake Mom and Dad before the sun is up. + +One morning, Sara and Ben wake up early. They see the sun is not up yet. It is still dark outside. They are not sleepy. They want to play. + +"Let's play with the train," Sara says. She points to the toy train on the shelf. + +"OK," Ben says. He gets out of bed and takes the train. He puts it on the floor and makes it go. "Choo choo!" + +Sara joins him. They make the train go around the room. They make noises and laugh. + +But they are too loud. They do not hear Mom and Dad wake up. They do not see them open the door. + +"Shh!" Mom says. She points to the clock. "It is too early to play. You must be quiet." + +"Sorry, Mom," Sara and Ben say. They look at the clock. It is not bright yet. It is still dark. + +"Go back to bed," Dad says. "You can play when the sun is up." + +"OK, Dad," Sara and Ben say. They put the train back on the shelf. They get into bed. They are not happy. They want to play. + +But they are good twins. They close their eyes and wait for the sun to come up. They hope it will be bright soon. +Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play at the beach. They make sand castles and look for shells. Sometimes they swim in the water, but not too far. + +One day, they see a big boat on the water. It has a flag and a horn. Ben and Mia wave to the boat. They hope the boat will wave back or honk the horn. But the boat does not see them. It ignores them. Ben and Mia feel sad. + +"Why does the boat ignore us?" Ben asks. + +"Maybe the boat is busy. Maybe it has to go somewhere fast." Mia says. + +"Or maybe the boat is mean. Maybe it does not like us." Ben says. + +They keep waving, but the boat does not change. It keeps going and going, until it is very small. + +Then, they hear a splash. They turn around and see a chubby seal. The seal has a shiny coat and a whiskery face. The seal looks at them and makes a noise. It sounds like "arf arf". + +"Look, a seal!" Mia says. + +"Hi, seal!" Ben says. + +The seal swims closer to them. It seems friendly. It waves its flipper at them. Ben and Mia wave back. They laugh and clap. + +The seal plays with them. It splashes them with water. It tosses a ball with its nose. It does tricks and spins. Ben and Mia have fun with the seal. They forget about the boat. + +The seal is not busy. The seal is not mean. The seal likes them. The seal does not ignore them. Ben and Mia are happy. They have a new friend. +Anna and Ben were playing with a big tube in the park. They liked to roll it, hide in it, and make noises with it. They had a lot of fun with the tube. + +But then, a big boy came and took the tube away. He said it was his tube and he did not want to share. Anna and Ben were very sad and angry. They asked for the tube back, but the big boy said no. + +"Please, give us the tube," Anna said. "We were playing with it first." + +"Too bad," the big boy said. "It is mine now. Go away." + +Ben was very brave and tried to get the tube back. He ran to the big boy and pulled the tube. But the big boy was stronger and pushed Ben away. Ben fell down and hurt his knee. He cried out loud. + +Anna ran to Ben and hugged him. She was very worried and scared. She did not know what to do. She looked at the big boy and said, "You are mean and bad. You made Ben cry. You should be sorry." + +But the big boy did not care. He laughed and clapped his hands. He said, "I am not sorry. I am happy. I have the tube and you have nothing. Ha ha ha." + +He ran away with the tube, leaving Anna and Ben alone and troubled. They did not have the tube or any fun. They only had pain and tears. They wished the big boy would come back and say sorry, but he did not. He was gone. The end. +Lily and Tom were twins who liked to play on the farm. They had many animal friends, like the cow, the sheep, the horse and the dog. But they were afraid of the bull, who was big and loud and had sharp horns. + +One day, they saw the bull in the field, near the fence. They wanted to look at him, but they were scared. Lily said, "Tom, let's go closer. Maybe he is nice." Tom said, "No, Lily, he is mean. He will chase us and hurt us." Lily said, "But I am curious. I want to see him. Come on, Tom, don't be scared. I will encourage you." + +Lily took Tom's hand and walked slowly towards the fence. The bull saw them and snorted. He shook his head and stamped his feet. Tom wanted to run away, but Lily held his hand. She said, "Look, Tom, he is not angry. He is just saying hello. Let's say hello back." She waved at the bull and said, "Hello, bull. We are Lily and Tom. We are your friends." + +The bull stopped snorting and looked at them. He seemed surprised and curious too. He moved closer to the fence and lowered his head. Lily and Tom saw his big eyes and his wet nose. They felt brave and touched his nose gently. The bull licked their hands and made a soft sound. Lily and Tom smiled and laughed. They said, "You are a good bull. You are not mean. You are gentle and friendly." + +The cow, the sheep, the horse and the dog saw what happened and came to the fence too. They were happy that Lily and Tom made friends with the bull. They said, "Well done, Lily and Tom. You are very brave and kind. You encouraged each other and the bull. You are good friends to all of us." Lily and Tom hugged each other and the animals. They said, "Thank you, cow, sheep, horse and dog. You are good friends too. We love you all." They played with the animals until it was time to go home. They said goodbye to the bull and promised to visit him again. The bull nodded and smiled. He was glad that he had new friends. He was not lonely anymore. +Tim and Kim are twins. They like to play and eat together. But they do not like to share their toys or their food. One day, Mom made a meal for them. She put two plates on the table. One plate had chicken and rice. The other plate had fish and pasta. + +"Tim, you can have the chicken and rice. Kim, you can have the fish and pasta," Mom said. + +But Tim did not want the chicken and rice. He wanted the fish and pasta. He looked at Kim's plate and felt angry. + +"Kim, give me your fish and pasta. I do not like chicken and rice," Tim said. + +"No, Tim. This is my fish and pasta. You have your chicken and rice. Eat your own food," Kim said. + +Tim did not listen to Kim. He reached for Kim's plate and tried to take it. Kim held her plate and pushed Tim away. They started to fight and yell. + +"Stop it, Tim and Kim. You are being rude and selfish. You should be thankful for your meal and share with each other," Mom said. + +But Tim and Kim did not hear Mom. They were too busy fighting. They were deaf to Mom's words. They did not see Mom coming to the table. Mom was angry and sad. She took both plates and threw them in the trash. + +"Fine. If you do not want to eat your meal, you can have no meal. Go to your room and think about what you did," Mom said. + +Tim and Kim stopped fighting. They looked at the trash and saw their food. They felt sorry and hungry. They wished they had listened to Mom and shared their food. They said sorry to Mom and to each other. They hugged and went to their room. They learned their lesson. They decided to be nice and share from now on. They hoped Mom would make them another meal soon. They did not want to poke each other anymore. They wanted to eat and play together. +Lily loved ponies. She had a toy pony that she played with every day. She wished she could see a real pony and touch its soft fur and ride on its back. + +One day, her mom said, "Lily, we are going to the farm today. There are many animals there, and maybe you can see a pony too." Lily was very happy and clapped her hands. She put on her warm coat and hat, because it was icy outside. + +At the farm, Lily saw cows, sheep, pigs, and chickens. She liked them all, but she looked for a pony. She asked her mom, "Where is the pony, mom? I want to see the pony." + +Her mom smiled and said, "Let's go to the barn. Maybe there is a pony there." They walked to the barn and opened the door. Inside, they saw a big horse and a small pony. The pony was brown and white, and had a long mane and tail. + +Lily ran to the pony and said, "Hello, pony! You are so pretty. Can I pet you?" The pony looked at Lily and nodded. Lily reached out her hand and touched the pony's fur. It was soft and warm. The pony nuzzled Lily's cheek and made a gentle sound. + +Lily giggled and said, "I like you, pony. You are my friend. Can I ride on you?" The pony nodded again and bent down. Lily climbed on the pony's back and held on to its mane. The pony stood up and walked around the barn. Lily felt like she was flying. She was so happy. + +She said, "Thank you, pony. You are the best. I love you." The pony neighed and licked Lily's hand. Lily hugged the pony and said, "I love you too." +Tom and Lily were playing in the living room. They liked to pretend they were different animals. Tom was a lion and Lily was a zebra. They ran around the sofa and the table, making noises. + +"Roar!" Tom said. "I am a big and strong lion. I will catch you, zebra!" + +"Neigh!" Lily said. "I am a fast and smart zebra. You cannot catch me, lion!" + +They had fun chasing each other. But then Tom saw the fireplace. It was cold outside, so Mom had lit a fire. The fire was bright and warm. Tom wanted to see it better. + +He stopped running and went closer to the fireplace. He looked at the fire with his big eyes. He saw the flames dancing and the wood crackling. He reached out his paw to touch the fire. + +"Tom, no!" Lily shouted. "The fire is hot! It will hurt you!" + +But Tom did not listen. He was curious. He touched the fire with his paw. He felt a sharp pain. He pulled back his paw and cried. + +"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Tom cried. "The fire bit me! The fire bit me!" + +Lily ran to him and hugged him. She was scared and sorry. She tried to comfort him. + +"Shh, Tom, shh," Lily said. "It's okay. The fire did not bite you. The fire is hot. You should not touch the fire. It will burn you." + +Tom was confused. He did not understand. He looked at his paw. It was red and sore. He looked at the fire. It was still bright and warm. He did not like the fire anymore. + +"Mom! Mom!" Lily called. "Tom touched the fire! He needs a band-aid!" + +Mom heard Lily's voice. She came to the living room. She saw Tom and Lily by the fireplace. She saw Tom's paw. She was worried and angry. + +"What happened?" Mom asked. "Why did you touch the fire, Tom? You know the fire is dangerous!" + +Tom did not answer. He was still crying. He was hurt and scared. He did not want to play anymore. + +Mom took Tom to the bathroom. She put some cream and a band-aid on his paw. She kissed him and hugged him. She told him he was brave and good. She told him he should never touch the fire again. + +Tom nodded. He felt better. He said he was sorry. He said he learned his lesson. + +Mom smiled. She said she loved him. She said she was glad he was okay. + +She took him and Lily back to the living room. She gave them some cookies and milk. She told them they could play again. But they had to stay away from the fireplace. + +Tom and Lily agreed. They thanked Mom. They ate their cookies and drank their milk. They decided to pretend they were different animals again. But this time, they were not a lion and a zebra. They were a cat and a dog. They liked to be a cat and a dog. They did not like to be a lion and a zebra. They did not like the fire. The fire was hot and bad. The fire was not fun. +Lily and Max are twins. They like to play in the sun. But they have to put on lotion first. Lotion helps their skin stay soft and healthy. + +One day, they find a new bottle of lotion in the bathroom. It is pink and shiny. It smells sweet, like candy. Lily and Max want to try it. + +"Look, Max, this lotion is so pretty!" Lily says. "Let's put some on." + +"OK, Lily, but not too much. Mommy said we have to share," Max says. + +They squeeze some lotion on their hands and rub it on their arms and legs. It feels smooth and sticky. They giggle and smell each other. + +"Yum, you smell like a strawberry, Lily!" Max says. + +"And you smell like a grape, Max!" Lily says. + +They are having so much fun that they don't hear Mommy coming. Mommy sees them covered in lotion and gasps. + +"Oh, no, Lily and Max, what have you done?" Mommy says. "That is not lotion, that is shampoo! It is for washing your hair, not your skin. You have wasted it and made a mess." + +Lily and Max feel bad. They did not know it was shampoo. They thought it was lotion. They look at Mommy with sorry eyes. + +"We are sorry, Mommy. We did not know. We wanted to try the sweet lotion," Lily says. + +"We wanted to smell good and play in the sun," Max says. + +Mommy sighs and hugs them. She is not angry, but she is sad. + +"I know, my loves, but you have to be careful. You have to ask before you use something new. You have to read the label or the picture. You have to respect what belongs to others. Do you understand?" Mommy says. + +Lily and Max nod. They understand. They say sorry again and help Mommy clean up. They learn their lesson. They will not use shampoo as lotion again. They will ask before they try something new. They will share and be respectful. They will still play in the sun, but with the right lotion. The lotion that is good for their skin. The lotion that Mommy gives them. +Sara and Ben were playing in the park with their grandma. They liked to run, slide, swing and climb. Grandma liked to watch them and smile. She had a camera in her bag. She wanted to take a picture of Sara and Ben. + +"Come here, my darlings," she called. "Let me take a picture of you. You look so happy and cute." + +Sara and Ben ran to grandma. They hugged her and smiled. Grandma took out her camera. She pointed it at them. + +"Say cheese," she said. + +"Cheese," Sara and Ben said. + +But then, something went wrong. The camera made a loud noise. It did not flash. It did not take a picture. + +"Oh no," grandma said. "The camera is broken. I can't take a picture of you." + +Sara and Ben looked sad. They wanted to have a picture with grandma. They wanted to remember this day. + +Grandma sighed. She was sad too. She loved her camera. She had it for a long time. She took many pictures with it. She put it back in her bag. + +"I'm sorry, my darlings," she said. "Maybe we can get a new camera later. Or maybe we can ask someone else to take a picture of us." + +Sara and Ben thought for a moment. They had an idea. + +"Grandma, we can draw a picture of us," Sara said. + +"Yes, we can," Ben said. "We have crayons and paper in our backpacks. We can draw us and you and the park. It will be a nice picture." + +Grandma smiled. She liked their idea. She thought it was very clever and sweet. + +"That's a wonderful idea," she said. "Let's do that. Let's draw a picture of us." + +Sara and Ben took out their crayons and paper. They sat on a bench with grandma. They started to draw. They drew themselves, grandma, the slide, the swing, the trees and the sun. They used many colors. They had fun. + +Grandma watched them and smiled. She was happy. She did not need a camera. She had her grandchildren. They were her best picture. +Anna and Ben were very happy. They were going to watch a movie with Mom and Dad. Mom said they could have popcorn, their favorite snack. Anna and Ben liked popcorn because it was white and crunchy and salty. + +Mom put some corn in a big pot on the stove. She put some oil and salt too. She turned on the fire and said, "Watch this, kids. The corn will pop and become popcorn. It is a fun and tasty magic." + +Anna and Ben watched the pot with big eyes. They heard some noises from inside. Pop! Pop! Pop! The corn was popping and jumping in the pot. The pot was getting full of popcorn. Anna and Ben clapped and laughed. + +"Wow, Mom, how does the corn pop?" Ben asked. + +Mom smiled and said, "Well, the corn has some water inside. When the fire is hot, the water turns into steam. The steam pushes the corn and makes it pop. Then the corn becomes white and fluffy and yummy." + +Anna and Ben nodded. They understood. Mom explained it very well. They thanked Mom and took some popcorn in a big bowl. They went to the couch and sat with Dad. They shared the popcorn and watched the movie. They were very happy. They loved popcorn and Mom and Dad. +Tom and Jen like to play with their toys. They have a lot of toys, but their favorite is a big seal. The seal is soft and gray and has a ball on its nose. They like to hug the seal and make it clap its flippers. + +One day, Tom and Jen are playing with the seal when they hear a loud rip. They look and see that the seal has a hole in its side. Stuffing is coming out of the hole. Tom and Jen are sad. They love their seal and do not want it to be broken. + +They run to their mom and show her the seal. Mom says she can fix it. She takes the seal and a needle and some thread. She sews the hole with the thread. She makes small stitches that are hard to see. She gives the seal back to Tom and Jen. They are happy. The seal looks good as new. + +Mom says they can make the seal even better. She takes them to the craft store. They buy some ribbons and some glitter and some stickers. They go back home and decorate the seal. They tie a ribbon around its neck. They sprinkle glitter on its ball. They stick stickers on its flippers. The seal looks very fancy. + +Tom and Jen are proud of their seal. They thank their mom for helping them fix it. They play with their seal and show it to their friends. Their friends think the seal is cool. Tom and Jen say it is the best seal ever. They hug their seal and make it clap its flippers. +Lily and Tom are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a small house near the park. The house has a window. Lily and Tom want to look inside the window. + +"Let's go and see the house," Lily says. + +"OK," Tom says. + +They run to the house. They stand on a box to reach the window. They pull the window, but it does not open. + +"Maybe it is locked," Tom says. + +"Maybe someone lives here," Lily says. + +They hear a noise from inside the house. They see a big dog coming to the window. The dog barks at them. + +"Wow, look at the dog!" Tom says. + +"Let's go away, it is scary!" Lily says. + +They jump off the box and run back to the park. They do not want to play near the house anymore. They play with their ball and have fun. They are happy. +Sara and Ben are twins. They like to play in the park. They have a big ball that they can jump on. It is fun and flexible. + +One day, they see another boy in the park. He has a small ball that he can throw. He sees Sara and Ben's big ball and he wants it. He runs to them and says, "Give me your ball. It is better than mine." + +Sara and Ben are angry. They do not want to give their ball. They say, "No, this is our ball. You have your own ball. Go away." + +The boy does not listen. He tries to grab their ball. Sara and Ben fight with him. They push and pull and shout. The boy is stronger than them. He takes their ball and runs away. + +Sara and Ben are sad. They cry and hug each other. They do not have their ball anymore. They do not like the boy. He is mean and greedy. + +A lady sees them and comes to help. She is the boy's mother. She says, "I am sorry. My son is naughty. He should not take your ball. Here, take it back. And take this small ball too. It is a gift. I hope you can be friends." + +Sara and Ben are surprised. They take their ball and the small ball. They say, "Thank you. You are nice and kind. We can share our balls. Maybe we can play together." + +The boy comes back. He is sorry. He says, "I am sorry. I was bad. I like your ball. Can I jump on it with you?" + +Sara and Ben smile. They say, "Yes, you can. But you have to be nice and gentle. And you have to say please and thank you." + +The boy nods. He says, "Please and thank you. I will be nice and gentle." + +They all play together. They jump on the big ball and throw the small ball. They have fun and laugh. They are flexible and happy. They are friends. +Lily and Ben love to play basketball. They have a big orange ball that bounces high and makes a loud sound. They like to throw the ball into the hoop and cheer when they score. + +One day, they see a new boy in the park. He has a small blue ball that he carries in his hand. He walks up to them and says, "Hi, I'm Max. Can I play with you?" + +Lily and Ben smile and say, "Sure, you can play with us. What is your ball?" + +Max says, "This is my basketball. It is very special. It can do amazing things. Watch this." He throws his ball into the air and it flies like a bird. It makes a loop and comes back to his hand. Lily and Ben gasp and clap. + +"Wow, that is impressive!" Lily says. "How do you do that?" + +Max says, "It is a magic ball. My grandma gave it to me. She said it has a secret power. Do you want to try it?" + +Lily and Ben nod eagerly. They take turns to carry the ball and throw it. The ball does different tricks for each of them. It spins, it glows, it bounces on the ground and on the trees. They laugh and have fun. + +They play until the sun sets and the sky turns pink. They thank Max for sharing his ball and invite him to play again. Max says, "Thank you for being my friends. I will come back tomorrow. Bye!" He waves and carries his ball away. + +Lily and Ben wave back and carry their ball home. They tell their mom and dad about their new friend and his impressive basketball. They can't wait to play with him again. +Tom likes to study animals. He has many books with pictures of animals. He wants to see real animals, not just pictures. He asks his mom to take him to the zoo. + +Mom says yes, but she is busy. She gives Tom a camera. She says he can take pictures of the animals. She says she will look at the pictures later. She says Tom must stay with her and not run away. + +Tom is happy. He takes the camera and follows mom to the zoo. He sees many animals. He sees lions, monkeys, elephants, and more. He takes pictures of them. He wants to show mom, but she is talking on her phone. She does not look at Tom. + +Tom sees a sign that says "Penguins". He likes penguins. He wants to take a picture of them. He does not see mom. He thinks she is behind him. He runs to the penguin place. He sees a big pool with water and ice. He sees many penguins. They are black and white. They swim and slide. They make funny noises. Tom thinks they are cute. + +He goes closer to the pool. He wants a good picture. He does not see the hidden fence. He trips and falls. He drops the camera. He falls into the pool. The water is cold. The ice is sharp. The penguins are scared. They peck and bite. Tom cries and screams. He wants mom. He wants help. But no one hears him. No one sees him. He is hidden by the water and the ice. He is alone with the penguins. He is in trouble. +Lily and Ben were twins who liked to play together. One day, they found a shiny penny on the floor. They both wanted to have it, but there was only one penny. + +"Let me have it!" Lily said. "I saw it first!" + +"No, I want it!" Ben said. "It is mine!" + +They began to pull the penny from each other, but it was very hard. They did not want to share or take turns. They kept pulling and pulling until they felt dizzy. + +Suddenly, they heard a loud noise. It was their mom, who came into the room. She saw them fighting over the penny and was very angry. + +"What are you doing?" she asked. "Why are you being so greedy and rude?" + +She took the penny from their hands and threw it in the trash. Then she sent them to their beds without any toys or stories. + +Lily and Ben felt very sad and sorry. They wished they had chosen to be nice and fair. They learned that a penny was not worth losing their fun and friendship. +Lily liked to play with her mom's things. She liked to look at the shiny rings and necklaces, and the pretty bottles and boxes. Sometimes, she would try them on and pretend to be a princess or a fairy. + +One day, when her mom was at the store, Lily saw a new box on the table. It was white and had a red cross on it. Lily was curious. She opened the box and saw many small, round things. They were different colors, like candy. Lily thought they looked yummy. + +Lily took one of the things and put it in her mouth. It was bitter and hard. She did not like it. She spit it out and threw it away. She took another one, hoping it would be better. It was not. She spit it out too. She tried a third one, and a fourth one, and a fifth one. None of them were good. They made her mouth dry and her tummy hurt. + +Lily started to feel sick. She felt dizzy and sleepy. She wanted to call her mom, but she could not. Her voice was quiet and weak. She lay down on the couch and closed her eyes. She hoped her mom would come back soon and make her feel better. + +But her mom did not come back soon. She was stuck in traffic and did not know what Lily had done. She did not know that Lily had eaten the pills that were for her dad, who was very sick. She did not know that the pills were strong and dangerous, and that Lily had taken too many. She did not know that Lily would not wake up again. +Tom and Sue are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big lake. It is blue and shiny. They want to go near the lake. + +"Look, Tom, a boat!" Sue says. She points to a small boat on the lake. It has a red flag and a white sail. "Can we go on the boat?" + +Tom nods. He likes boats. He runs to the boat. Sue follows him. They climb on the boat. They are happy. + +"Let's make the boat go fast!" Tom says. He pulls the sail. The wind blows. The boat moves on the lake. + +"Wow, this is fun!" Sue says. She laughs. She looks at the water. It is pretty. + +But then, the wind blows harder. The boat spins on the lake. Tom and Sue are scared. They hold the boat. They do not know what to do. + +"Help! Help!" Tom shouts. He hopes someone can hear him. He feels helpless. + +"Help! Help!" Sue shouts. She cries. She feels helpless too. + +They see a man on the shore. He has a big hat and a long stick. He hears them. He runs to the lake. He throws the stick to the boat. Tom and Sue grab the stick. The man pulls them to the shore. He saves them. + +"Are you okay?" the man asks. He is kind. He smiles. + +"Yes, thank you," Tom says. He is glad. He hugs the man. + +"Thank you," Sue says. She is glad too. She hugs the man. + +They are safe. They are sorry. They learn a lesson. They do not go on the boat again. They play on the grass. They are happy. +Tim and Lily were playing in the pool. They liked to splash each other with water. They also liked to throw a ball and try to score in a hoop. They were having fun. + +But then, Max came. Max was older and bigger than Tim and Lily. He wanted to play with them, but he did not play nice. He splashed them hard and took their ball. He scored in the hoop and laughed. He said he was the best. + +Tim and Lily did not like Max. They felt sad and angry. They wanted him to go away. They asked him to stop, but he did not listen. He kept splashing and scoring and laughing. + +Then, Mom came. She saw what Max was doing. She said, "Max, that is not nice. You are hurting Tim and Lily. You need to share and be kind. If you cannot do that, you have to leave the pool." + +Max did not want to leave the pool. He liked the water and the ball and the hoop. But he did not like Mom. He knew she was serious. He said, "Fine, I will go. But you are no fun. Tim and Lily are babies." + +He got out of the pool and walked away. He looked angry and sad. + +Tim and Lily were happy. They thanked Mom and hugged her. They got their ball back and played again. They splashed and scored and laughed. They felt peaceful and safe. They were friends. +Tim and Kim were twins who liked to play games. They had many toys, but their favorite game was to guess what was in a box. Their mom would put something in a box and cover it with a cloth. Then Tim and Kim would take turns to touch the box and guess what was inside. + +One day, their mom said she had a special box for them. She said it was very big and heavy, and they had to use both hands to lift it. Tim and Kim were very excited. They ran to the living room and saw the box on the floor. It was covered with a red cloth. + +"Can I go first?" Tim asked. + +"OK, but be careful. It's very heavy," mom said. + +Tim grabbed the cloth and pulled it off. He saw a big, dull, gray thing. It had a wheel, a chain, and two pedals. He did not know what it was. + +"What is this?" he asked. + +"It's an exercise bike," mom said. "It's good for your health. You can ride it and make your legs strong." + +Tim did not like the exercise bike. He thought it was boring and hard. He wanted to play with something fun and easy. + +"I don't want to ride it. I want to guess something else," he said. + +He pushed the exercise bike aside and looked for another box. + +Kim saw the exercise bike and smiled. She thought it was cool and fun. She wanted to try it and see how fast she could go. + +"Can I ride it?" she asked. + +"Sure, go ahead. It's yours," mom said. + +Kim climbed on the exercise bike and started to pedal. She felt the wind in her hair and the sun on her face. She imagined she was riding a real bike in the park. She was happy and proud. + +"I love it! Thank you, mom!" she said. + +Mom hugged Kim and smiled. She was glad Kim liked the exercise bike. She hoped Tim would learn to like it too. + +She looked at Tim and saw him opening another box. He saw a small, shiny, red thing. It had buttons, lights, and sounds. He knew what it was. + +"It's a remote control car!" he exclaimed. + +He grabbed the car and the remote and ran to the backyard. He turned on the car and the remote and started to drive it around. He thought it was fun and easy. He did not care about anything else. + +"I love it! Thank you, mom!" he said. + +Mom watched Tim and sighed. She was happy Tim liked the remote control car. But she worried he would not get enough exercise. She wished he would try the exercise bike too. + +She looked at Kim and saw her still riding the exercise bike. She saw her sweat, breathe, and smile. She knew she was healthy and happy. + +She looked at the sky and saw a big, dark, gray cloud. It had thunder, lightning, and rain. She knew what it meant. + +"It's going to storm," she said. + +She called Tim and Kim and told them to come inside. Kim stopped the exercise bike and got off. She ran to the house and followed mom. Tim stopped the remote control car and got off. He ran to the house and followed Kim. + +But he forgot something. He left the remote control car and the remote in the backyard. He did not see the rain falling on them. He did not hear the thunder cracking them. He did not feel the lightning burning them. + +He did not know he had lost his favorite toy. + +The moral of the story is: You should not judge things by their appearance. Sometimes, the dull things are good for you, and the shiny things are bad for you. You should try new things and learn from them. You should also take care of your things and not leave them outside. +There was a princess who lived in a big palace. She had many toys and dresses and jewels, but she was not happy. She was spoiled and mean. She always wanted more and more, and she never said thank you or sorry. She laughed at the people who worked in the palace and the children who played outside. She thought she was better than everyone else. + +One day, a fairy came to visit the princess. She wanted to teach her a lesson. She said, "Princess, you are very rude and selfish. You do not know how to share or care. You do not deserve all the things you have. I will take them away and see how you like it." The fairy waved her wand and made all the princess's toys and dresses and jewels disappear. The princess was shocked and angry. She cried and screamed and stomped her feet. She said, "How dare you do this to me? Give me back my things! I am the princess!" + +The fairy said, "No, princess, you are not. You are just a little girl who needs to learn some manners and kindness. You will not get your things back until you do. You will have to live like the other children, who have much less than you, but are much happier. Maybe then you will understand how to be grateful and friendly." The fairy took the princess by the hand and flew out of the palace. + +The princess had to stay with a poor family who lived in a small hut. They had no toys or dresses or jewels, but they had each other and they had fun. They played with sticks and stones and flowers, they sang and danced and told stories, they helped with the chores and shared their food. They were very nice to the princess, even though she was rude and selfish at first. They did not laugh at her, but they tried to make her laugh. They did not judge her, but they tried to teach her. They did not hate her, but they tried to love her. + +Slowly, the princess began to change. She stopped crying and screaming and stomping her feet. She started saying thank you and sorry and please. She learned how to share and care and help. She made friends with the other children and played with them. She laughed with them, not at them. She realized that she was not better than anyone else, but she was also not worse. She was just a little girl who wanted to be happy and make others happy. + +One day, the fairy came back to see the princess. She was very pleased with what she saw. She said, "Princess, you have done very well. You have learned your lesson. You have become a good and kind person. You are ready to go back to your palace. But remember, your things are not what make you happy. Your heart is. Do not forget what you have learned here. Do not become spoiled and mean again. Be grateful and friendly to everyone. And always laugh with them, not at them." The fairy waved her wand and brought back all the princess's toys and dresses and jewels. The princess was happy, but not because of her things. She was happy because of her friends. She hugged them and thanked them and said goodbye. She promised to visit them often and to share her things with them. She flew back to her palace with the fairy, but she never forgot her lesson. She became a good and kind princess, who made everyone happy. And she always laughed with them, not at them. +Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to run and jump and laugh. They saw a big tree with many leaves. They wanted to pick some leaves and make a picture. + +"Look, this leaf is red and yellow. It is pretty," Lily said. She showed Ben her leaf. + +"I have a green leaf. It is bigger and better," Ben said. He showed Lily his leaf. + +"No, my leaf is better. Your leaf is boring," Lily said. She was angry. + +"No, my leaf is better. Your leaf is ugly," Ben said. He was angry too. + +They started to yell and push each other. Ben slapped Lily's leaf and it fell to the ground. Lily slapped Ben's leaf and it tore in half. + +"Ow! You hurt my leaf! You are mean!" Ben cried. + +"Ow! You hurt my leaf too! You are meaner!" Lily cried. + +They both sat on the ground and cried. They did not want to play anymore. + +A man was walking his dog in the park. He saw Ben and Lily crying. He came over to them. + +"What is wrong, kids? Why are you crying?" he asked. + +"Ben hurt my leaf. He slapped it and it fell," Lily said. + +"Lily hurt my leaf. She slapped it and it tore," Ben said. + +The man looked at the leaves. He saw that they were both beautiful and different. + +"Kids, you should not slap each other's leaves. You should be honest and kind. You can both like different leaves. They are all from the same tree. They are all part of nature. You can share them and make a picture together," he said. + +He gave them a paper and some glue. He helped them glue their leaves on the paper. He made a smiley face with the leaves. + +"See, this is a nice picture. It has red and yellow and green leaves. They all look good together. They make the picture happy," he said. + +Ben and Lily looked at the picture. They smiled too. They said sorry to each other. + +"Sorry, Lily. I should not have slapped your leaf. It is pretty," Ben said. + +"Sorry, Ben. I should not have slapped your leaf. It is big and better," Lily said. + +They hugged each other. They thanked the man and his dog. They went to play again. They were honest and kind. They were happy. +Lily and Max were playing with their blocks. They liked to build towers and houses and cars. Lily had a big block that was yellow and shiny. She said it was butter. Max wanted the butter block too. He tried to take it from Lily. + +"Hey, that's mine!" Lily shouted. "Give it back!" + +"No, I want it!" Max said. "It's nice and smooth!" + +They pulled and pushed the butter block. It slipped from their hands and fell on the floor. It broke into two pieces. Lily and Max were sad and angry. They both started to cry. + +Mom heard them and came to see what was wrong. She saw the broken butter block and the grumpy kids. She hugged them and said, "Don't worry, it's not real butter. It's just a toy. You can fix it with some glue." + +She brought some glue and helped them attach the pieces together. The butter block looked like new again. Lily and Max smiled and said, "Thank you, Mom!" + +They decided to share the butter block and play nicely. They made a cake with it and some other blocks. They pretended to eat it and said, "Yum, yum, butter cake!" They were happy and had fun. +Tom and Lily are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big dog. The dog is brown and furry. It has a long tail and sharp teeth. + +Tom wants to show Lily how brave he is. He runs to the dog and says, "Hi, doggy!" He tries to pet the dog. The dog does not like Tom. The dog growls and barks. The dog is angry and scared. + +Lily is alert. She sees the dog's motion. The dog jumps at Tom and bites him. Tom screams and cries. He falls to the ground. He is hurt and bleeding. + +Lily runs to Tom and tries to help him. She calls for help. She is sad and scared. She wishes Tom did not show the dog. She wishes they played somewhere else. The dog runs away. + +The end. +Ben and Lily are friends. They like to play together. Today they want to make a cross with sticks and string. They look for sticks in the yard. They find some big ones and some small ones. + +"Look, I have a big stick!" Ben says. He holds it up. + +"I have a small stick!" Lily says. She holds it up too. + +They put the sticks on the ground. They try to make a cross. But the sticks do not stay together. They fall apart. + +"Oh no, it does not work!" Ben says. He is sad. + +"We need something to hold them together!" Lily says. She thinks hard. + +She sees a ball of string on the porch. She runs to get it. She brings it back to Ben. + +"Look, I have string!" Lily says. She is happy. + +"Wow, string is cool!" Ben says. He is happy too. + +They use the string to tie the sticks together. They make a cross. It does not fall apart. It works! + +"Yay, we did it!" Ben and Lily say. They hug each other. + +They are proud of their cross. They show it to their mom and dad. Their mom and dad smile and clap. + +"Good job, Ben and Lily!" their mom and dad say. "You worked hard and made a cool cross!" + +Ben and Lily are happy. They love their cross. They love their mom and dad. They love each other. They are friends. +Lila did not like to bathe. She thought the water was too cold and the soap was too harsh. It made her skin feel dry and itchy. She always tried to hide when her mom called her to the bathroom. + +One day, her mom had a new idea. She bought a special soap that was soft and gentle. It had a sweet smell and made bubbles in the water. She also got a rubber duck and a toy boat for Lila to play with. + +She said to Lila, "Look, I have a surprise for you. Do you want to see it?" + +Lila was curious. She followed her mom to the bathroom. She saw the soap, the duck and the boat on the edge of the tub. She smiled and touched them. + +"Wow, these are nice. Can I play with them?" she asked. + +"Of course, but first you have to bathe. The soap will make you clean and the toys will make you happy. Do you want to try?" her mom said. + +Lila nodded. She climbed into the tub and let her mom wash her hair and body with the soap. She liked the bubbles and the smell. She giggled and splashed with the duck and the boat. She forgot that she did not like to bathe. + +Her mom was happy too. She said, "You see, bathing can be fun. You are a good girl, Lila. I love you." + +Lila hugged her mom and said, "I love you too, mom. Thank you for the soap and the toys. Can I bathe again tomorrow?" +Lily and Tom like to play with trains. They have a big box of trains and tracks in their room. They make long and curvy tracks on the floor and put their trains on them. They make the trains go fast and slow, and make noises like choo-choo and beep-beep. + +One day, they find a new train in the box. It is shiny and red, and has a big black thing on the front. It looks like a real train. Lily and Tom are very happy. They put the train on the track and turn it on. The train starts to move and make a loud noise. Lily and Tom clap their hands and laugh. + +But then, they see something strange. The big black thing on the front of the train starts to make white smoke. The smoke comes out of a small hole and goes up in the air. It is very hot and wet. It is steam. Lily and Tom do not know what steam is. They think it is funny and try to touch it. + +But steam is dangerous. It can burn and hurt. Lily and Tom feel a pain in their fingers when they touch the steam. They scream and cry. They drop the train and run away. The train keeps moving and making steam. It makes a mess on the floor and the track. + +Mom hears the noise and comes to the room. She sees the train and the steam and the crying children. She is angry and scared. She turns off the train and takes it away. She says it is not a toy. It is a bad train. She says Lily and Tom should not play with it. She says they should be careful and not touch things they do not know. She hugs Lily and Tom and puts a band-aid on their fingers. She says she loves them and they will be okay. Lily and Tom say they are sorry and they love her too. They do not want to play with the bad train anymore. They want to play with their other trains. They are safe and fun. +Lily and Tom were playing with their toys in the living room. They had a lot of fun making noises and pretending to be animals. Lily was a cat and Tom was a dog. + +"Meow, meow, I am a cat. I like to jump and scratch," Lily said. + +"Woof, woof, I am a dog. I like to run and fetch," Tom said. + +They chased each other around the sofa and the chair. They laughed and giggled. + +Then, they heard their mom calling them from the kitchen. + +"Kids, it's time for lunch. Come and wash your hands," mom said. + +Lily and Tom ran to the kitchen. They saw a big black table with plates and cups and food on it. It smelled good. + +"Wow, mom, what did you make?" Tom asked. + +"I made your favorite, macaroni and cheese. And some salad and fruit for dessert," mom said. + +"Yummy, I love macaroni and cheese," Lily said. + +They sat down on the chairs and mom served them. They ate and drank and talked. + +"Mom, do you remember when we went to the park yesterday?" Lily asked. + +"Of course, I remember. We had a lot of fun, didn't we?" mom said. + +"Yes, we did. We played on the swings and the slide and the sandbox. And we saw some ducks and squirrels and flowers," Lily said. + +"I remember, too. We fed the ducks some bread and we made a sandcastle and we picked some daisies," Tom said. + +They smiled and nodded. They remembered the happy day they had at the park. They finished their lunch and thanked mom. Then, they went back to the living room to play some more. They were happy. +One day, a little girl named Mia was feeling troubled. She wanted to create something fun to make her feel better. She thought and thought, and then she had a great idea! + +Mia decided to create a mask. She used paper, colors, and string to make a beautiful mask with a big smile. When she finished, she put the mask on her face and looked in the mirror. The mask made her feel happy. + +Mia went to her friend Tom and said, "Look at my mask! I made it myself!" Tom looked at the mask and smiled. "Wow, Mia! That's a great mask! Can you help me create one too?" Mia nodded and said, "Of course, Tom! Let's make masks together and have fun!" So, Mia and Tom created masks and played all day, forgetting their troubles. +One day, a little girl named Lily went for a walk. She saw a light orange cat sitting by a tree. The cat looked sad. Lily asked the cat, "Why are you sad?" + +The cat said, "I lost my friend. He is a light orange cat too. We match, but I can't find him." Lily wanted to help the cat find his friend. They looked under the tree, behind the bushes, and by the pond. But they could not find the light orange cat. + +Finally, they saw a light orange tail under a big rock. Lily and the cat went to the rock and found the missing friend. The two cats were so happy to be together again. They thanked Lily for helping them. Lily felt good for helping the cats. She learned that helping others can make you happy too. +Once upon a time, there was a big cake. It was a very pretty cake. It was ready to eat. The cake was in a box. The box was closed. + +A little girl named Lily wanted to see the cake. She asked her mom, "Can I see the cake?" Her mom said, "Yes, you can." So, Lily opened the box. She saw the cake. She revealed the cake. + +Lily was happy. She said, "I love the cake!" Then, she ate the cake with her mom. They both liked the cake. They were happy. The end. +Once upon a time, there was a club where kids would go to play games. In this club, kids were very competitive. They wanted to win all the time. One day, a new kid named Tim came to the club. He wanted to play with the other kids. + +Tim tried to play with the kids, but they were not nice to him. They did not want him to win. Tim felt sad and did not want to go to the club anymore. He told his mom about it. His mom told him to be nice to the other kids, even if they were not nice to him. + +The next day, Tim went back to the club. He was kind and shared his toys with the other kids.
