The mouse was so eager to join them. He ran and scurried up the log. When he got to the top, he noticed something sparkling inside. It was a beautiful gem! +The animals all started to fight over the gem. The mouse was so frail and helpless that he could not fight back. So, he ran away and quickly hid behind a rock. But the animals kept fighting and eventually the gem split in two.

This is your new home. Here you can be happy and free." + +Lily smiled and ran towards the voice. She saw a kind lady, who looked like the fairy, holding out her arms. She hugged her and felt safe and loved. She said, "Thank you, fairy lady. This is the best dream ever." + +The lady said, "This is not a dream, Lily. This is real. I am your fairy godmother, and I have been watching over you. I saw how sad and lonely you were, and how much you suffered. I decided to help you escape from your dad and bring you here, where you belong. This is a magic land, where dreams come true. You can stay here as long as you want, and you can do anything you like.

She does not like it. + +"Tom, you soaked me!" Lily says. She is angry and sad. She drops her cup and runs to the house. + +"Sorry, Lily, I did not mean to soak you!" Tom says. He feels bad and sorry. He runs after Lily. + +"Lily, wait, please!" Tom says. He wants to say sorry and make Lily happy again. + +But Lily does not stop.

"We can eat one every time we find each other." + +"OK, but don't eat too many," Lily says. "They are for Mom and Dad." + +They go to the garden and take turns hiding and seeking. They have fun and eat some mints. But they don't notice that their dog, Spot, is following them. Spot likes mints too. He smells them in their pockets and tries to get them. + +Spot is very persistent. He barks and jumps and nips at Tom and Lily. He makes them drop some mints on the grass. He eats them quickly and wants more. + +"Stop, Spot, stop!" Tom and Lily shout. "These are our mints, not yours!" + +But Spot doesn't listen. He chases them around the garden. He makes them run and scream and laugh. He makes them forget about hiding and seeking. + +Mom and Dad hear the noise and come to the garden. They see Tom and Lily and Spot playing. They see the empty jar of mints on the table. They see the wrappers on the grass. + +"Tom and Lily, what have you done?" Mom asks. "You took all the mints without asking. And you gave some to Spot. That's not good for him." + +"We're sorry, Mom," Tom and Lily say. "We just wanted to play hide and seek with the mints. But Spot was too persistent.

They did not want to try salad. They wanted to play. + +"Please, Mom, can we skip the salad?" Lily said. + +"No, you have to choose some salad. It is part of the deal. If you eat some salad, you can play on the slide, the swing, and the sandbox. If you don't, you can only play on one thing," Mom said. + +Lily and Max thought about it. They really wanted to play on everything. They looked at the salad again. It had tomatoes, carrots, cheese, and dressing.

She held her jar up and said, "Look, mom, I have four bugs!" + +But mom did not look happy. She looked scared. She said, "Lily, put that jar down! That bee can sting you! And that grasshopper can jump out! And that ant can bite you! And that ladybug can fly away! Those bugs are not happy in your jar. They need to be free!" + +Lily did not understand. She liked her bugs. She wanted to keep them. She said, "No, mom, they are my bugs! I counted them!" + +Mom tried to take the jar from Lily. Lily held it tight. They pulled and pulled.

Go make your own tower." + +Ben felt sad. He wanted to share with Lily, but she was being mean. He looked at his cone, but it was empty. He tried to fill it with sand, but the sand was too rough and dry. It did not stick together. + +"Hey, Ben, do you want some water?" a voice said. It was Tom, their friend. He had a bottle of water and a smile. + +"Yes, please!" Ben said. He took the bottle and poured some water on his sand. The sand became wet and soft. He packed it into his cone and turned it over. He had a nice tower, too. + +"Look, Lily, I made a tower!" Ben said, showing his cone. "It is very smooth and shiny." + +"Wow, that is a good tower!" Lily said. She felt sorry for being mean.

He was happy to share with his friends. + +Lily poured some water on her sand and made another tower. She put it next to Ben's tower. They looked like twins. + +"Look, we have two towers!" Lily said. "They are very pretty and cool." + +"Yes, we do!" Ben said. He was happy that Lily was nice again. He gave her a hug. + +"Thank you, Tom, for the water!" Lily and Ben said. + +"You're welcome!"

One day, they see a big hill. They want to run up the hill and see what is on the other side. + +"Let's go, Anna!" Ben says. He puts on his glove and holds Anna's hand. They run and run and run. They feel the wind in their hair and the sun on their faces. + +They reach the top of the hill. They look around. They see a lake, a forest, and a farm. They see cows, sheep, and chickens. They see a man and a woman working on the farm. They wave at them. + +"Hello!" the man says. He walks towards them. He has a smile on his face. He is humble. He does not think he is better than anyone. He is happy to meet new people. + +"Hello!" Anna and Ben say. They are curious. They want to learn about the farm. + +"Who are you?" the man asks. + +"We are Anna and Ben. We live in the town. We came to see the hill," Anna says. + +"That's nice. Do you like the farm?" the man asks. + +"Yes, we do. Can we see the animals?" Ben asks. + +"Sure, you can. Come with me. I will show you around. But first, you need to put on these gloves.

She does not listen to Tom. She runs to the basket and opens it. She grabs a banana and peels it. + +"Mmm, this is yummy!" she says. "Come on, Tom, try one!" + +Tom feels bad. He does not want to upset Lily, but he also does not want to do something wrong. He looks around and sees a man and a woman walking towards them. They have a blanket and a radio. + +"Uh-oh," Tom says. "I think they are the owners of the basket. We have to go!" + +He pulls Lily by the hand and runs away. Lily drops the banana and cries. + +"Hey, stop!" the man shouts. "That's our food!" + +Lily and Tom are scared. They hide behind a slide and hope the man and the woman do not find them. They wish they had listened to Tom and left the basket alone. They learn a lesson: it is not nice to take what is not yours. +Lila and Sam are friends. They like to play outside.

But maybe next time you can play with something else in the hall. Something that doesn't mind getting wet." + +"Like what?" Max asked. + +Mom thought for a moment. Then she had an idea. She went to the bathroom and came back with two rubber ducks. + +"Here you go," she said, handing them to Lily and Max. "These are ordinary ducks, but they love to soak in water. You can play with them in the tub or in the sink. They will make you laugh with their quacks." + +Lily and Max looked at the ducks and smiled. They thanked Mom and ran to the bathroom.

Get down from there right now!" + +Tim and Lily were scared. They jumped off the grill and ran to their mom. They hugged her and said sorry. They did not know they were not supposed to play on the grill. + +Their dad was not angry for long. He smiled and said, "It's okay. I know you were just having fun. But next time, please ask me before you use my grill. It's very old and could break. And it's not safe for you. You could get hurt." + +Tim and Lily nodded. They said sorry again. They learned their lesson. They decided to play with their toys instead. They still had fun. And they still laughed. +Lily liked to admire the violin in the shop window. It was shiny and brown and had four strings. She wanted to play it and make music like the people on TV. But the violin was very fancy and expensive. Lily's mom said they could not buy it. + +One day, Lily saw a man with a violin outside the shop. He was playing a song and people were listening and smiling. Lily stopped and watched him. She liked his music. It was happy and sad and beautiful. The man saw Lily and smiled at her. He asked her if she liked the violin. + +Lily nodded and said yes. She said she wished she had a violin too. The man was kind and said he would let her try his violin. He put it in her hands and showed her how to hold it and use the bow. Lily felt nervous and excited. She tried to play a note, but it sounded funny and squeaky. She tried again and it sounded better. The man helped her play a simple tune. Lily felt proud and happy. She thanked the man and gave him back his violin. + +The man said she did very well and said she had a talent for music. He said he would give her a violin lesson if she wanted. Lily's mom said that would be very nice and said they would come back next week. Lily hugged the man and said thank you. She was very happy. She had made a new friend and learned something new. She still admired the violin in the shop window, but she admired the man more. He had a big heart and a beautiful music. +Lily liked to lead her dog, Spot, on walks. She had a red leash that she put on Spot's collar. Spot was a good dog and followed Lily where she went. + +One day, Lily and Spot walked to the park. They saw a big garden with many vegetables. Lily saw carrots, lettuce, tomatoes, and more. She liked vegetables and wanted to pick some. + +But Spot saw a rabbit in the garden. He barked and ran after the rabbit. He pulled the leash from Lily's hand. Lily was scared and ran after Spot. + +The rabbit was fast and ran away. Spot ran into the garden and knocked over some vegetables. He made a big mess. The gardener was angry and shouted at Spot. He had a rough voice and a rough face. + +Lily caught up with Spot and grabbed the leash. She said sorry to the gardener. She helped him pick up the vegetables. She gave him some of her cookies as a sorry gift. The gardener smiled and thanked her. He gave her a carrot for Spot. + +Lily and Spot walked back home. Lily told Spot he was a bad dog, but she still loved him. She gave him the carrot and a hug. Spot wagged his tail and licked her face. They were happy. +Ben was enthusiastic about drawing. He liked to use many colors and shapes on his paper. He had a big box of pencils that he could choose from. He wanted to make a picture of his family and his dog. + +He picked a yellow pencil for the sun, a blue pencil for the sky, a green pencil for the grass, and a brown pencil for the dog. He drew a circle for the sun, a line for the sky, and zigzags for the grass. He drew a big oval for the dog's body, four sticks for the legs, a small circle for the head, and a long curve for the tail. + +He was happy with his drawing, but he thought something was missing. He looked at his box of pencils and saw a red one. He thought that red was a pretty color and that it would make his drawing more fun. He decided to use the red pencil to draw a tongue for the dog. + +He opened his mouth and put the red pencil in his mouth. He wanted to taste the color. He bit the pencil and felt a hard and bitter thing. He did not like it. He spit out the pencil and made a face. + +"Yuck!" he said. "This pencil does not taste good. It tastes like dirt." + +His mom heard him and came to see what was wrong. She saw the red pencil on the floor and the bite mark on it. She saw the drawing of the family and the dog. + +"Ben, what did you do?" she asked. "Why did you bite the pencil?" + +"I wanted to taste the red," Ben said. "But it was not yummy. It was yucky." + +Mom smiled and hugged Ben. She was glad he was not hurt. + +"Ben, pencils are not for tasting," she said. "They are for drawing. You did a very nice drawing of us and the dog. But you should not put pencils in your mouth. They can make you sick." + +"I'm sorry, Mom," Ben said. "I won't do it again. Can I have a cookie instead?" + +Mom nodded and gave Ben a cookie. Ben tasted the cookie and smiled. It was sweet and soft. He liked it. + +"This cookie tastes good," he said. "It tastes like love." +Sara liked to draw with her pen. She drew flowers and trees and cats and dogs. She drew on paper and on the wall and on the sofa. She was very happy. + +But mom did not like Sara's drawings. She said they were messy and bad. She took away Sara's pen and said no more drawing. She was very angry. + +Sara was very sad. She wanted her pen back. She wanted to draw more. She looked for her pen everywhere. She looked in the kitchen and in the bedroom and in the bathroom. She could not find it. + +Then she saw her pen on the table. It was next to dad's keys and phone. Dad was going to leave for work. Sara had an idea. She ran to the table and grabbed her pen. She was very quick. + +She ran to the door and gave dad her pen. She said, "Here, dad, take my pen. It is very helpful. You can draw at work. You can draw flowers and trees and cats and dogs. You can draw on paper and on the wall and on the sofa. You will be very happy." + +Dad was very surprised. He looked at Sara and her pen. He smiled and hugged her. He said, "Thank you, Sara, for your pen. It is very helpful. But I think you need it more than me. You can draw at home. You can draw on paper and on the wall and on the sofa. But please, not on mom's things. She will be very happy." + +Sara was very happy. She took her pen back and said, "Okay, dad, I will be careful. I love you and mom and my pen. Have a good day at work. Bye bye." + +Dad left for work. Sara went to draw. Mom came to see. She saw Sara's drawings. She saw they were beautiful and good. She was very happy. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to draw and color. Today is Anna's birthday. She is very happy. She has a cake and balloons and presents. + +"Happy birthday, Anna!" Ben says. He gives her a big hug and a small box. "This is for you. I hope you like it." + +Anna opens the box. Inside is a pencil. But not a normal pencil. A magic pencil. It has many colors and sparkles. Anna gasps. She loves it. + +"Wow, thank you, Ben! This is the best pencil ever! How does it work?" Anna asks. + +Ben smiles. He takes the pencil and draws a star on a paper. The star shines and flies out of the paper. Anna claps. + +"It's magic! You can draw anything you want and it will come to life. But be careful. Some things are spicy." Ben says. + +"Spicy? What do you mean?" Anna says. + +Ben draws a pepper on the paper. The pepper jumps out and lands on the cake. It makes the cake very hot and spicy. Anna and Ben laugh. + +"Oops! That was a spicy pepper. Let's draw something else. Something sweet and nice." Ben says. + +Anna nods. She takes the pencil and draws a flower on the paper. The flower grows and smells good. Anna and Ben smile. + +"That's better. This is a fun pencil. Thank you, Ben. You are a good friend." Anna says. + +"You're welcome, Anna. Happy birthday. Let's draw more things and have fun." Ben says. + +Anna and Ben draw and play with the magic pencil. They have a wonderful birthday party. They are very happy. +Lily and Max were playing hide and seek in the garden. Lily was the seeker and Max was the hider. Lily counted to ten and then looked for Max. She saw his shoes behind a big bush. She ran to the bush and shouted, "I found you, Max! You have to surrender!" + +Max did not want to surrender. He wanted to keep hiding. He crawled deeper into the bush, but he did not see the pond behind it. He slipped and fell into the water. He got very wet and cold. He cried, "Help, Lily! I'm wet!" + +Lily heard Max's cry and ran to the pond. She saw him in the water, holding a thick branch. She reached out her hand and said, "Don't worry, Max. I'll help you. Give me your hand and I'll pull you out." + +Max gave Lily his hand and she pulled him out of the pond. He was shivering and dripping. Lily hugged him and said, "It's okay, Max. You're safe now. Let's go inside and get dry and warm." + +Max nodded and said, "Thank you, Lily. You're a good sister. I'm sorry I didn't surrender. Can we play again later?" + +Lily smiled and said, "Of course we can, Max. But next time, don't hide behind the pond. It's too wet and slippery." + +They walked inside, holding hands. They were happy to have each other. +Anna and Ben are friends. They go to the same classroom. They like to paint and draw. One day, they paint a big picture of a farm. They use many colors. They are happy. + +"Look, Anna, I paint a cow. Moo!" Ben says. + +"Wow, Ben, your cow is good. I paint a pig. Oink!" Anna says. + +They show their picture to their teacher. Their teacher smiles. She says, "You are very smart, Anna and Ben. Your picture is beautiful. But it is wet. You need to dry it." + +She gives them a big paper towel. They use the paper towel to dry their picture. They are careful. They do not want to ruin their picture. + +When their picture is dry, they hang it on the wall. They are proud. They show their picture to their friends. Their friends say, "Wow, Anna and Ben, your picture is amazing. You are very smart." Anna and Ben smile. They are happy. +Lily and Ben were twins. They liked to play in the park. They saw a big slide. They wanted to go on the slide. + +"Let's climb the rail!" Lily said. She was brave and fast. She grabbed the rail and pulled herself up. + +"Wait for me!" Ben said. He was chubby and slow. He tried to grab the rail, but it was too high. He could not reach it. + +"Help me, Lily!" Ben said. He was sad and scared. He did not want to be left behind. + +Lily looked down and saw Ben. She felt sorry for him. She was kind and smart. She had an idea. + +"Use the steps, Ben!" Lily said. She pointed to the steps next to the rail. They were low and easy. "You can do it!" + +Ben saw the steps. He smiled and nodded. He walked to the steps and climbed them. He was happy and proud. He reached the top. + +"Yay, Ben!" Lily said. She hugged him. They were both on the slide. + +"Ready, set, go!" Lily said. She pushed Ben and they slid down together. They laughed and cheered. They had fun. +Tom and Ben are friends. They like to play with trains. They have many trains of different colors and sizes. They make tracks on the floor and push the trains along. + +One day, Tom sees a new train in Ben's room. It is big and shiny and makes noises. Tom wants to play with it. He asks Ben, "Can I have your new train?" + +Ben says, "No, this is my train. It is special. You can play with the other trains." + +Tom feels angry. He thinks Ben is not a good friend. He waits until Ben is not looking. Then he grabs the new train and runs away. + +Ben sees Tom and shouts, "Hey, give me back my train! That is not yours!" + +Tom does not listen. He runs to the door. He wants to take the train home. But he is not careful. He trips on a toy and falls down. The train flies out of his hands and hits the wall. It breaks into pieces. + +Tom and Ben are both sad. Tom is sorry for taking the new train. Ben is sorry for losing his new train. They both cry. They wish they had been nicer to each other. They wish they had offered to share the train. But it is too late. The train is broken and their friendship is hurt. +Anna and Ben were twins who liked to play pretend. One day, they decided to be kings and queens of a big castle. They used pillows and blankets to make a throne and a crown. They also found a big mattress in the basement and dragged it to the living room. + +"This is our royal bed," Anna said. "Only we can sleep on it." + +They put the mattress on the floor and climbed on it. They pretended to have a feast and a ball with their stuffed animals. They had a lot of fun. + +But then, they heard their mom coming home. She opened the door and saw the mess they had made. + +"Anna! Ben! What are you doing?" she asked. + +The twins jumped off the mattress and ran to hug her. They were happy to see her, but also a little scared. + +"We're sorry, mom," Ben said. "We were playing kings and queens." + +Mom looked at the pillows, the blankets, the mattress, and the toys. She was not happy. + +"You made a big mess," she said. "You have to clean it up. And you can't use the mattress for playing. It's for sleeping." + +She told them to kneel down and pick up the things they had scattered. She helped them fold the blankets and put the pillows back. She also helped them carry the mattress back to the basement. + +"Next time, you can play pretend with something else," she said. "Something more ordinary." + +Anna and Ben nodded. They were sorry for making mom angry. They loved her very much. + +They finished cleaning up and gave mom a big hug and a kiss. Then they went to their room and played with their books and crayons. They still liked to play pretend, but they also liked to be good. +Sara and Tom are going to grandma's house for the weekend. They have to pack their bags with clothes and toys. Sara is happy and puts her doll, her book and her hat in her bag. Tom is angry and does not want to pack. He throws his car, his ball and his rag on the floor. + +"Tom, pack your bag now!" Sara says. "We have to go soon!" + +"No, I don't want to!" Tom says. "I want to stay here and play!" + +"Please, Tom, don't be angry!" Sara says. "Grandma is waiting for us and she has cookies and milk!" + +"I don't care!" Tom says. "I don't like grandma's house! It is old and boring!" + +Sara tries to help Tom pack his bag. She picks up his car and his ball and puts them in his bag. But when she tries to pick up his rag, Tom snatches it from her and hits her with it. + +"Ow, Tom, that hurts!" Sara cries. "Why are you so mean?" + +"Leave me alone!" Tom shouts. "This is my rag and you can't have it!" + +Sara runs to mom and tells her what Tom did. Mom is not happy. She goes to Tom and scolds him. + +"Tom, you are being very naughty!" Mom says. "You have to pack your bag and say sorry to Sara. And you have to be nice to grandma. She loves you and wants to see you!" + +Tom feels bad. He knows he was wrong. He packs his rag in his bag and goes to Sara. He hugs her and says sorry. + +"I'm sorry, Sara," Tom says. "I was angry, but I don't know why. I love you and I love grandma. Can we still go?" + +Sara smiles and forgives him. She hugs him back and says yes. + +"Yes, Tom, we can still go," Sara says. "And maybe grandma will let us play with her cat and her piano!" + +Tom and Sara are happy. They take their bags and go with mom to the car. They are ready to go to grandma's house. +Tom and Sue were friends. They liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big cage. Inside the cage was a lion. The lion looked sad and hungry. + +"Let's go and see the lion," Tom said. He was brave and curious. + +"No, Tom, don't go. The lion is dangerous. He can bite and scratch. He can hurt us," Sue said. She was smart and careful. + +But Tom did not listen to Sue. He ran to the cage. He wanted to touch the lion. He thought the lion was soft and warm. + +"Hello, lion. Are you lonely? Do you want to play with me?" Tom said. He put his hand through the bars. + +The lion saw Tom's hand. He was angry and hungry. He did not want to play. He wanted to eat. He opened his mouth and roared. + +"Tom, watch out!" Sue shouted. She was scared and worried. + +But it was too late. The lion bit Tom's hand. Tom screamed and cried. He felt pain and fear. He pulled his hand back. But his hand was bleeding and hurt. + +Sue ran to Tom. She hugged him and tried to help him. She called for help. She was sad and sorry. + +The lion licked his lips. He was full and happy. He lay down and slept. + +The moral of the story is: Do not go near dangerous animals. Listen to your friends who care about you. Be careful and safe. +Tom and Sue were playing in the woods. They liked to find sticks and stones and make things with them. They saw a big furry animal sleeping under a tree. It looked like a big dog, but with a long tail and sharp teeth. + +"Look, a furry dog!" Sue said. "Can we pet it?" + +Tom shook his head. "No, Sue. That is not a dog. That is a fox. Foxes can bite. We should mind it and leave it alone." + +But Sue did not listen. She wanted to touch the furry fox. She crept closer and closer, until she was right next to it. She reached out her hand and stroked its fur. + +The fox woke up with a start. It saw Sue and growled. It snapped at her hand and scratched her arm. Sue screamed and ran away. + +Tom ran after her. He saw a man with an axe chopping wood nearby. He called for help. + +"Help, help! A fox hurt my sister!" + +The man with the axe heard Tom and ran to them. He saw Sue's bleeding arm and the angry fox. He swung his axe and scared the fox away. + +"Are you okay, kids?" the man asked. "What were you doing near the fox?" + +"We were playing, sir," Tom said. "But Sue wanted to pet the fox. She did not mind it and it bit her." + +The man shook his head. "That was very foolish, Sue. You should never touch wild animals. They can be dangerous. You are lucky I was here with my axe. Come, I will take you to your parents and get you some medicine." + +He picked up Sue and carried her to his truck. Tom followed him. He felt sorry for Sue, but he also felt angry. He wished she had minded the fox and listened to him. He hoped she would learn her lesson. +Ben and Mia are friends. They like to play with toys and share things. One day, Ben has a new thing. It is a car that can make sounds and move by itself. Mia thinks it is a cool thing. + +"Can I play with your car, Ben?" Mia asks. + +"Sure, Mia. You can play with it. But you have to be careful. It is my favorite thing," Ben says. + +Mia is happy. She takes the car and makes it go around the room. She likes the sounds and the lights. She thinks Ben is a good friend. He is reliable. He always shares his things with her. + +But then, something bad happens. The car hits a wall and breaks. The sounds and the lights stop. Mia is sad and scared. She broke Ben's favorite thing. + +"I'm sorry, Ben. I broke your car. It was an accident. Please don't be mad at me," Mia says. + +Ben is sad too. He loves his car. But he loves Mia more. He is a kind friend. He accepts what happened. + +"It's okay, Mia. I'm not mad at you. It was an accident. You didn't mean to break it. Maybe we can fix it later. Or we can play with something else. I still like you," Ben says. + +Mia is relieved. She hugs Ben and says thank you. They are still friends. They find another thing to play with. They have fun. They are happy. +Jill and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big dog with a pink collar. The dog was filthy and had mud all over its fur. Jill and Tom wanted to pet the dog, but the dog looked scared and angry. + +"Hello, doggy!" Jill said, reaching out her hand. "You are so pretty with your pink collar. Do you want to be our friend?" + +The dog growled and bared its teeth. It did not like strangers touching it. It was afraid of people who might hurt it or take it away. The dog snapped at Jill's hand and made her cry. + +"Ow, ow, ow!" Jill screamed, pulling back her hand. "The dog bit me! The dog bit me!" + +Tom was frightened too. He saw blood on Jill's hand and tears on her face. He wanted to help her, but he did not know what to do. He trembled and hugged Jill. + +"Shh, shh, shh," Tom said, trying to calm Jill. "It's okay, it's okay. We will find a grown-up to help you. Don't be sad, don't be mad." + +A lady came running to them. She was the dog's owner. She had been looking for the dog, who had run away from her. She was sorry that the dog had hurt Jill. She apologized and took the dog away. + +"I'm so sorry, kids," the lady said. "My dog is not mean, he is just scared. He had a bad life before I adopted him. He was abused and neglected by his old owners. He needs a lot of love and care to trust people again. Please don't hate him, please forgive him." + +Jill and Tom looked at the lady and the dog. They felt sorry for them too. They understood that the dog was not bad, he was just hurt. They decided to forgive the dog and the lady. They hoped that the dog would be happy and healthy with his new owner. + +The lady thanked them and gave them a band-aid for Jill's hand. She also gave them a pink toy dog to remember her and her dog. Jill and Tom smiled and thanked the lady. They learned a lesson that day. They learned that some animals and people are afraid and angry because they have been hurt. They learned that they should be kind and gentle to them, and not judge them by their looks. They learned that forgiveness is better than hate. +Sara did not like the dark. She was afraid of the shadows and the noises that came from outside her window. She liked to have a light on when she went to sleep. But tonight, her mom said she had to finish her bath before she could turn on the light. + +"Come on, Sara, you have to wash your hair and your toes," her mom said, as she poured some water over Sara's head. "Then you can get out of the bathtub and put on your pajamas." + +Sara nodded, but she was not happy. She wanted to get out of the bathtub now. She did not like the water in her eyes and ears. She did not like the soap that smelled like flowers. She wanted to be dry and warm and safe in her bed. + +She looked at the window and saw that it was getting darker and darker. She wondered what was hiding in the dark. She thought she heard a howl and a growl. She shivered and whimpered. + +"Mom, can I get out now?" she asked, in a small voice. + +"Not yet, Sara, you have to finish your bath," her mom said, as she scrubbed Sara's back. "It's not that dark, don't be scared. There's nothing to be afraid of." + +But Sara was afraid. She was afraid of the dark and the things that lived in it. She wished she had a light to keep them away. She wished she had a friend to keep her company. + +She looked around the bathtub and saw her rubber duck. She smiled and reached for it. She hugged it to her chest and felt a little better. She decided to name it Ducky. She said hello to Ducky and asked if he was afraid of the dark too. + +Ducky did not answer, but Sara pretended he did. She pretended he said he was not afraid, because he had Sara. She pretended he said he would protect her from the dark and the things that lived in it. She pretended he said he was her friend. + +Sara felt a lot better. She finished her bath with Ducky by her side. She got out of the bathtub and put on her pajamas. She turned on the light and climbed into her bed. She took Ducky with her and cuddled him close. She said goodnight to Ducky and thanked him for being her friend. + +She closed her eyes and fell asleep. She did not hear the howl and the growl anymore. She did not see the shadows and the noises anymore. She only saw Ducky and his smile. She was not afraid of the dark anymore. She was happy. +Sara likes to draw pictures with her crayons. She draws her family, her dog, her house and her friends. She likes to show her pictures to her mom and dad. They always say they are very good and very pretty. + +One day, Sara gets a letter in the post. It is from her grandma, who lives far away. Sara loves her grandma very much. She reads the letter with her mom. Grandma says she misses Sara and she hopes she is happy and safe. She also says she likes Sara's pictures and she wants to see more of them. + +Sara is very happy. She wants to answer grandma's letter. She gets her crayons and some paper. She draws a big heart and writes "I love you grandma" inside. She also draws a picture of her and grandma holding hands. She puts the picture and the letter in an envelope. She writes grandma's name and address on it. She asks her mom to help her put a stamp on it. + +Sara and her mom go to the post office. They give the envelope to the lady behind the counter. The lady smiles and says she will send it to grandma. Sara is very excited. She hopes grandma will get her letter soon and like her picture. She knows grandma will answer her back. She feels happy and safe. She hugs her mom and says thank you. +Tom and Lily are twins. They like to play games, but they are very competitive. They always want to win and be the best. + +One night, they are in their bedroom. They have a big box of toys. They decide to play a game of who can find the most toys of the same color. They each pick a color and start looking. + +Tom picks blue and Lily picks pink. They look under the bed, in the closet, on the shelf, and in the drawers. They find many toys of their colors and put them in piles. + +Tom thinks he has more toys than Lily. He wants to count them and see who wins. He whispers to Lily, "Let's count our toys and see who has more." + +Lily whispers back, "Okay, but we have to be quiet. Mom and Dad are sleeping." + +They start counting their toys. Tom has ten blue toys and Lily has nine pink toys. Tom is happy. He whispers, "I win! I have more toys than you!" + +Lily is sad. She whispers, "No fair! You have more blue toys because you have the big truck and the big bear. They are too big. They should count as two toys each." + +Tom whispers, "No way! They are one toy each. You are just a sore loser." + +Lily whispers, "You are a cheater." + +They start to argue. They forget to be quiet. They raise their voices and make a lot of noise. + +Mom and Dad hear them. They come to their bedroom. They are not happy. They say, "What are you doing? It's past your bedtime. You should be sleeping, not fighting." + +Tom and Lily stop arguing. They feel ashamed. They say, "Sorry, Mom and Dad. We were playing a game and we got competitive." + +Mom and Dad say, "Playing games is fun, but you have to be respectful and fair. And you have to follow the rules. The first rule is to sleep at night. Now, put away your toys and go to bed." + +Tom and Lily do as they are told. They put away their toys and go to bed. They say good night to each other and to Mom and Dad. They hug and kiss. They are not mad anymore. They are sleepy. They close their eyes and dream of new games to play. +Lily loved to swim in the lake with her mom and dad. She liked to splash and kick and see the fish and plants under the water. She always wore her jewelry, a necklace with a shiny stone that her grandma gave her. She said it was very special and made her feel happy. + +One day, Lily and her mom and dad went to the lake for a picnic. They brought a basket with sandwiches and cookies and juice. Lily was excited to swim and eat and have fun. She put on her necklace and ran to the water. + +She swam and swam and played with her dad. He lifted her up and threw her in the air. She laughed and screamed and felt the sun on her face. She did not see that her necklace came off and fell into the water. + +She got tired and went back to the shore. She ate a sandwich and a cookie and drank some juice. She felt something was missing. She touched her neck and realized her necklace was gone. She felt sad and scared. She told her mom and dad what happened. + +They hugged her and said they would try to find it. They went back to the water and looked and looked. They could not see the necklace. It was too deep and too dark. Lily cried and cried. She wished she had not lost her grandma's gift. + +Then, she saw something shiny in the water. It was a fish. A big fish with a soft fin and a long tail. And on its fin, there was her necklace. The fish had found it and put it on. It looked happy and proud. It swam up to Lily and smiled. It gave her back her necklace. Lily was amazed and grateful. She thanked the fish and put on her necklace. She felt happy and loved. She hugged her mom and dad and the fish. They all smiled and swam together. Lily learned that sometimes, losing something can lead to finding something else. Something wonderful. +Ben and Mia are twins. They like to play with their toys in the garage. The garage has many boxes and tools. Ben and Mia have to be careful not to touch them. + +One day, Ben sees a big hammer on a shelf. He wants to lift it and pretend to fix things. He says to Mia, "Look, a hammer! I want to lift it and play." + +Mia says, "No, Ben, that is not a toy. It is too heavy and sharp. You can hurt yourself or break something. We have to be obedient and leave it alone." + +But Ben does not listen. He climbs on a chair and reaches for the hammer. He lifts it with both hands, but it is too heavy for him. He loses his balance and falls off the chair. The hammer falls on the floor and makes a loud noise. + +Mia screams, "Ben, are you okay?" + +Ben cries, "Ow, ow, ow! My arm hurts!" + +Mia runs to him and hugs him. She says, "I'm sorry, Ben. I told you not to lift the hammer. You have to be more careful." + +Ben says, "I'm sorry, Mia. You were right. I was not obedient. I was silly. Can you help me?" + +Mia says, "Yes, of course. Come on, let's go to Mom and Dad. They will make you feel better." + +They hold hands and walk out of the garage. They leave the hammer on the floor. They hope Mom and Dad will not be angry. They learned their lesson. They will not lift things that are not toys. They will be obedient and safe. +One night, Ben and Lily could not sleep. They heard a loud sound outside their window. "Who, who, who?" the sound said. + +"What is that?" Lily asked Ben. + +"I think it is an owl," Ben said. "Owls are big birds that fly at night. They have big eyes and sharp claws." + +"Are they scary?" Lily asked. + +"No, they are not scary. They are nice. They eat mice and bugs," Ben said. + +"Can we see the owl?" Lily asked. + +"Maybe. Let us hope it comes closer," Ben said. + +They got out of bed and looked out the window. They saw a big tree with many leaves. The sound came from the tree. + +"Who, who, who?" the owl said again. + +"Hello, owl!" Ben and Lily said. + +The owl heard them and turned its head. It saw Ben and Lily in the window. It flew to a branch near them. + +"Hello, children!" the owl said. "What are you doing up so late?" + +"We could not sleep. We heard you," Ben said. + +"I am sorry. I was looking for some food. I am hungry," the owl said. + +"What do you like to eat?" Lily asked. + +"I like to eat mice and bugs. They are yummy," the owl said. + +"Yuck! We do not like mice and bugs. We like cookies and milk. They are yummy," Ben said. + +"Really? Can I try some?" the owl asked. + +"Sure. Wait here. We will get some for you," Ben said. + +Ben and Lily ran to the kitchen and got some cookies and milk. They brought them to the window and gave them to the owl. + +"Thank you, children. You are very kind," the owl said. + +The owl tasted the cookies and milk. It made a funny face. + +"Ooh, this is not yummy. This is sweet and soft. I do not like it," the owl said. + +"Sorry, owl. We thought you would like it," Ben said. + +"That is okay. You can have it. I will go find some mice and bugs. They are yummy," the owl said. + +"Goodbye, owl. Thank you for visiting us," Lily said. + +"Goodbye, children. Thank you for sharing with me. Have a good night," the owl said. + +The owl flew away to the tree. Ben and Lily ate the cookies and milk. They felt happy and sleepy. + +They went back to bed and closed their eyes. They hoped to see the owl again. They dreamed of flying with the owl in the night. +Tom and Jen like to play in the park. They run and jump and slide and swing. They have fun with their friends and their toys. But they also like to examine new things. They look and touch and smell and listen. They want to learn about the world. + +One day, they see a big truck in the park. It is red and shiny and has a ladder and a hose. It is a fire truck. Tom and Jen are curious. They want to examine the fire truck. They ask the fireman if they can. He says yes, but be careful. + +Tom and Jen climb on the fire truck. They see buttons and levers and gauges and lights. They hear a sound. It is loud and high and scary. It is the siren. Tom and Jen cover their ears. They do not like the sound. They want to stop it. + +They look for the button that makes the sound. They see many buttons. They do not know which one. They try one. It does not work. They try another. It does not work. They try another. It works. The sound stops. Tom and Jen are happy. They smile and clap. + +But the fireman is not happy. He is angry. He runs to the fire truck. He sees Tom and Jen. He sees the button they pushed. It is the wrong button. It is the button that makes the fire truck go. The fire truck starts to move. It is fast. It goes out of the park. It goes on the road. It goes away. + +Tom and Jen are scared. They hold on tight. They do not know what to do. They wish they did not examine the fire truck. They wish they did not push the button. They wish they were back in the park. They wish they were safe. +Lily was sad. She wanted to see her grandma, but her grandma was far away. She missed her hugs and her stories. She asked her mom, "When can we see grandma?" + +Mom said, "I don't know, Lily. Grandma is sick. She needs to stay in the hospital. We can call her and send her pictures, but we can't visit her right now." + +Lily felt sadder. She wanted to make grandma feel better. She thought of something. She ran to her room and got her favorite bulb. It was a yellow bulb that lit up when she pressed a button. It was a gift from grandma. She loved it. + +She brought the bulb to mom and said, "Can we send this to grandma? Maybe it will make her happy. Maybe it will help her get well." + +Mom smiled and hugged Lily. She said, "That's very sweet of you, Lily. But we can't send the bulb to grandma. It might break on the way. And grandma has a lot of bulbs in her room. She can see them when she wakes up." + +Lily felt sad again. She didn't know what to do. She looked at the bulb and wished it could fly to grandma. She closed her eyes and prayed. She said, "Please, please, please, make grandma better. Please, please, please, let me see her soon. Please, please, please, make her happy. I love her so much." + +Mom heard Lily's prayer and kissed her head. She said, "That's a beautiful prayer, Lily. I'm sure grandma hears it too. And I'm sure she loves you too. Why don't we call her and tell her how much we miss her? Maybe we can show her the bulb and make her smile." + +Lily nodded and smiled. She hoped her prayer would come true. She hoped her bulb would shine for grandma. She hoped she would see her soon. +Anna loves to look at the stars at night. She thinks they are very pretty and shiny. She likes to hold her teddy bear and pretend they are flying in the sky. She wonders what is beyond the stars. She asks her mom, "What is the big thing that has all the stars and planets?" + +Her mom smiles and says, "That is the universe, Anna. It is very big and amazing. It has many things we can see and many things we cannot see. We are part of the universe, too. We live on a planet called Earth, which is a small part of the universe." + +Anna thinks about that. She feels very small and very big at the same time. She feels grateful for her mom, her teddy bear, and the stars. She says, "I love the universe, mom. And I love you, too." + +Her mom hugs her and says, "I love you, too, Anna. And I am grateful for you. You are my star." They cuddle and watch the stars together, feeling happy and cozy. +Sara and Ben like to play outside. They have a big yard with grass and flowers. They also have a sandbox and a slide. They have fun making sand castles and sliding down. + +One day, it is very hot and bright. The sun is high in the sky and makes everything warm. Sara and Ben feel sweaty and thirsty. They want to drink some water and rest in the shade. + +They go to the house and ask their mom for water. She gives them each a cup and tells them to drink slowly. She also gives them a hat and some sunscreen. She says they should wear them when they go back outside. + +Sara and Ben drink their water and feel better. They put on their hats and sunscreen and go back to the yard. They see something shiny in the sandbox. They go closer and see a coin. It is silver and has a picture of a man on it. + +They wonder where it came from and who it belongs to. They think maybe someone dropped it or left it there. They decide to keep it and share it. They think it is a lucky coin. They are happy and smile at each other. They go back to playing and having fun. They do not know what will happen next. +Lily and Max liked to play with clay. They made animals, cars, and houses with the soft and sticky stuff. They had fun with their clay, but they also made a big mess. Clay was on the table, on the floor, and on their clothes. + +"Look at this, kids!" Mom said, coming into the room. "You have to clean this up. Clay can stain and damage things if you leave it there." + +"But Mom, we are not done playing!" Lily said. "Can we clean later?" + +"No, you have to clean now. Clay is harmless for you, but not for the furniture and the carpet. If you clean now, you can play more later. I will help you, OK?" Mom said. + +"OK, Mom," Max said. He did not want to upset Mom. He liked to play with clay, but he also liked to be a good boy. He picked up some clay from the floor and put it in a plastic bag. Lily did the same. They worked together with Mom to clean the table, the chairs, and their clothes. They used water, soap, and paper towels. + +"Good job, kids!" Mom said, when they were done. "You cleaned very well. I am proud of you. Now you can play more with your clay, but only on this tray. And remember to put it away when you are done, OK?" + +"OK, Mom," Lily and Max said. They smiled and hugged Mom. They were happy to play with their clay, and to make Mom happy too. They learned that cleaning was not so bad, and that it was part of playing. +Sara and Ben were twins who liked to play in the garden. One day, they saw a big melon growing on a vine. They wanted to pick it and eat it, but their mom said no. She said the melon was expensive and they had to wait until it was ripe. + +Sara and Ben were sad, but they obeyed their mom. They played with their toys and their dog, but they always looked at the melon. They wondered how it tasted and how juicy it was. They wished they could have a bite. + +One morning, their mom went to the market. She told Sara and Ben to stay in the house and not to touch the melon. She said she would be back soon. Sara and Ben said yes, but they did not mean it. As soon as their mom left, they ran to the garden. They saw the melon shining in the sun. It looked ready to eat. + +"Let's pick it and eat it," Sara said. "Mom will never know." + +"But she said no," Ben said. "She will be angry." + +"Who cares?" Sara said. "She is not here. Come on, it will be fun." + +Sara and Ben ignored their mom's words. They pulled the melon from the vine and carried it to the porch. They found a knife and cut the melon in half. They scooped out the flesh and ate it. It was sweet and juicy. They smiled and licked their fingers. + +They did not see their mom coming back from the market. They did not hear her footsteps on the path. They did not notice her shadow on the wall. They only saw the melon and their mouths. + +Their mom saw them and the melon. She saw the knife and the seeds. She saw the mess and the waste. She was angry and sad. She shouted at Sara and Ben. She said they were naughty and greedy. She said they had to pay for the melon. She said they had to clean the porch. She said they had no dessert for a week. + +Sara and Ben cried and said they were sorry. They said they would never do it again. They said they loved their mom. But their mom did not listen. She ignored their words. She took the knife and the seeds. She left them with the rind and the chores. She said they had to learn their lesson. +Anna and Ben were playing in the garden. They had a big box of toys and they pretended to be pirates. Anna had a red shirt and a paper hat. Ben had a blue shirt and a wooden sword. + +"Arrr, I am the captain of this ship!" Anna said. "You are my prisoner, Ben. Surrender or walk the plank!" + +"No, I am the captain!" Ben said. "You are the prisoner, Anna. Surrender or I will tickle you!" + +They both laughed and ran around the box. They tried to catch each other and make each other surrender. They had a lot of fun. + +But then, Anna saw something shiny on the ground. It was a necklace with a pretty pendant. She picked it up and put it around her neck. + +"Wow, look what I found!" Anna said. "It is so beautiful!" + +"Let me see!" Ben said. He reached for the necklace, but Anna pulled it away. + +"No, it is mine!" Anna said. "I found it first!" + +"That is not fair!" Ben said. "You have to share!" + +They started to fight over the necklace. They pulled and pushed and shouted. They were very naughty. + +"Hey, what are you doing?" a voice said. It was Mom. She came out of the house and saw them fighting. She was not happy. + +"Stop it, right now!" Mom said. "Give me that necklace. It is not yours. It is mine. I lost it yesterday. How did you find it?" + +Anna and Ben looked at each other. They felt ashamed. They gave the necklace to Mom and said sorry. + +"Sorry, Mom," Anna said. + +"Sorry, Mom," Ben said. + +Mom hugged them and said, "It is okay. I am glad you found my necklace. But you should not fight over things. You should play nicely and share. Do you understand?" + +"Yes, Mom," Anna and Ben said. + +Mom smiled and said, "Good. Now, why don't you go back to your pirate game? And maybe you can take turns being the captain." + +Anna and Ben nodded and said, "Okay, Mom." + +They put on their shirts and hats and went back to the box. They played pirates again, but this time they were more friendly and fair. They had a lot of fun. +Ben likes to read books with many pages. He likes to look at the pictures and say the words. One day, he finds a book with a big hole in one page. He is sad and angry. He wants to fix the page. + +He runs to his mom and shows her the book. "Mom, look! Book is broken! Who did this?" he asks. + +Mom looks at the book and sees the hole. She is sorry for Ben. She says, "I don't know, Ben. Maybe it was an accident. Maybe someone cut the page with scissors." + +Ben thinks for a moment. He remembers that his sister Lily has scissors in her room. He thinks that Lily is mean and likes to make fake things. He says, "I think Lily did this. She likes to cut things. She makes fake flowers and fake animals. She is bad!" + +Mom says, "Ben, don't say that. Lily is your sister. She loves you. Maybe she didn't know that this was your book. Maybe she wanted to make something with the page. Let's go and talk to her." + +Ben and mom go to Lily's room. They see Lily sitting on the floor with scissors, glue and paper. She is making a collage with different shapes and colors. She sees Ben and mom and smiles. She says, "Hi, Ben. Hi, mom. Look what I made. It's a rainbow." + +Ben sees the rainbow and feels a shock. He sees that one of the colors is missing. He sees that the color is the same as the page from his book. He points at the rainbow and says, "Lily, you cut my book! You took my page! You made a fake rainbow! You are bad!" + +Lily looks at Ben and feels a shock. She sees that he is holding his book with a hole. She sees that the hole is the same as the color from her rainbow. She says, "Ben, I'm sorry. I didn't know that this was your book. I found the page on the floor. I thought it was trash. I wanted to make a rainbow. I didn't mean to hurt your book. I'm sorry." + +Ben looks at Lily and feels a mix of feelings. He is still sad and angry, but he also sees that Lily is sorry. He sees that she didn't do it on purpose. He sees that she likes to make things too. He says, "Lily, it's okay. I forgive you. But don't cut my books again. They are not trash. They are my books. I like to read them. They are real." + +Lily says, "Ben, thank you. I won't cut your books again. They are not trash. They are your books. You like to read them. They are real. Can I read them with you?" + +Ben says, "Yes, you can. But first, let's fix my book. Let's glue the page back. Let's make it real again." + +Lily says, "Yes, let's do that. Let's fix your book. Let's make it real again." + +Ben and Lily hug and smile. Mom hugs and smiles too. She is happy that they are friends again. She is proud of them. She says, "You are both good. You are both creative. You are both my children. I love you." +Lily and Ben are friends. They like to play in the yard. They have a ball, a bike, and a doll. They share their toys and have fun. + +One day, a big dog comes to the yard. The dog is hungry and angry. It barks and runs at Lily and Ben. They are scared and run to the house. The dog takes the ball, the bike, and the doll. It runs away with the toys. + +Lily and Ben are sad. They want their toys back. They cry and hug each other. They tell their mom what happened. Mom is sorry and hugs them too. She says, "Don't worry, my loves. We will find the dog and get your toys back. Maybe the dog is poor and has no toys. Maybe we can be kind and share with him." + +Mom takes Lily and Ben to the car. They drive around the neighborhood. They look for the dog and the toys. They see the dog in a park. He is playing with the ball, the bike, and the doll. He looks happy. + +Mom stops the car and gets out. She calls the dog softly. She has a bone and a leash. She says, "Hello, dog. You are a good dog. You like to play with toys. But these toys are not yours. They belong to Lily and Ben. They are sad and miss their toys. Can you return the toys to them? They will be happy and thank you. And maybe they will let you play with them sometimes. And I have a bone for you. Do you want the bone?" + +The dog hears mom and sees the bone. He wags his tail and drops the toys. He runs to mom and licks her hand. He takes the bone and lets mom put the leash on him. Mom smiles and says, "Good dog. You are a smart dog. You understand. Come with me. I will take you to Lily and Ben. And maybe I will find you a home where you can have your own toys and food and love." + +Lily and Ben see mom and the dog. They are happy and run to them. They hug mom and the dog. They say, "Thank you, mom. Thank you, dog. You are a nice dog. We are sorry you are poor and have no toys. You can play with us and our toys sometimes. We will be your friends." + +Mom, Lily, Ben, and the dog go back to the car. They drive home. They return the toys to the yard. They play together and have fun. They are happy. +Lily and Ben were twins, but they liked different things. Lily liked to bake with Mom. She helped to mix the flour, the eggs and the sugar. She poured the batter into the pan and put it in the oven. She waited for the cake to be done. Ben did not like to bake. He liked to play outside. He ran, he jumped and he climbed. He had fun with his ball and his bike. + +One day, Lily and Ben decided to switch places. Lily went outside to play with Ben's ball and bike. Ben stayed inside to bake with Mom. They wanted to try something different. Lily kicked the ball hard, but it went too far. She ran after it, but she tripped on a rock. She had a fall and scraped her knee. She cried and ran back to the house. Ben cracked the eggs, but he dropped one on the floor. He tried to wipe it, but he made a mess. He poured the batter, but he spilled some on the counter. He put the pan in the oven, but he forgot to set the timer. He smelled something burning and opened the oven. He saw a black cake and smoke. He coughed and ran out of the kitchen. + +Lily and Ben met in the living room. They both looked sad and dirty. They hugged each other and said sorry. Mom came and saw them. She smiled and said, "It's OK, my loves. You tried something different, and that's good. But sometimes, different is not easy. You can learn from your mistakes and try again. Or you can do what you like best and be happy. The choice is yours." She kissed them and took them to the bathroom. She cleaned their wounds and their clothes. She gave them a glass of milk and a cookie. She said, "I love you both, no matter what. You are different, but you are both special." Lily and Ben smiled and said, "We love you too, Mom. And we love each other, even if we are different." They hugged Mom and each other. They felt better and learned a lesson. +Lily and Ben liked to play with their boat in the pond. They made the boat from a big box and some paint. They put a flag on the boat and pretended to be pirates. + +One day, they saw a duck swimming near their boat. The duck was curious and pecked at the flag. Lily and Ben laughed and said hello to the duck. + +"Quack, quack," the duck said. It sounded like it wanted to talk to them. + +"Do you understand the duck, Lily?" Ben asked. + +"No, I don't understand the duck, Ben. Do you?" Lily said. + +"No, I don't understand the duck, Lily. But maybe it wants to play with us," Ben said. + +They decided to let the duck join their boat. They gave it some bread and named it Quacky. Quacky seemed happy and quacked along with their pirate songs. + +They had a lot of fun with Quacky. They did not know that Quacky had a secret. Quacky was not a normal duck. Quacky was a magic duck. And Quacky had a plan. + +The next day, they came back to the pond with their boat. They looked for Quacky, but they could not find him. They were sad and wondered where he went. + +Then they heard a loud splash. They turned around and saw Quacky. But Quacky was not a duck anymore. Quacky was a dragon. A big, green, scaly dragon. He had wings and claws and fire in his mouth. + +"Quack, quack," Quacky said. He smiled and winked at them. + +Lily and Ben were scared and surprised. They did not understand what happened. They did not understand why Quacky was a dragon. They did not understand why he was still quacking. + +"Quacky, what are you doing?" Lily asked. + +"Quacky, why are you a dragon?" Ben asked. + +"Quacky, are you still our friend?" they both asked. + +Quacky nodded and flew over to their boat. He gently picked it up with his claws and put it on his back. He said, "Quack, quack. Don't worry, Lily and Ben. I am still your friend. I am a magic duck. I can change into anything I want. I wanted to be a dragon today. But I still like your boat and your bread and your songs. Come with me. I will show you something fine." + +Lily and Ben looked at each other. They were still scared and surprised. But they were also curious and brave. They decided to trust Quacky. They climbed on his back and held on to the boat. Quacky flew up in the sky and took them to a fine place. A place with rainbows and clouds and stars. A place where they could play and sing and dream. A place where they could understand each other. A place where they could be happy. +Lily wanted to tie her own sock. She saw Mommy do it many times. She took a sock and tried to make a knot. But the sock was too big and slippery. She pulled and twisted, but the sock did not stay. + +"Can I help you, Lily?" Mommy asked. + +"No, I can do it!" Lily said. She wanted to show Mommy she was a big girl. + +She tried again, but the sock fell off her foot. She felt angry and sad. She threw the sock on the floor. + +Mommy picked up the sock and smiled. "It's okay, Lily. Tying a sock is hard. You need to practice. Do you want me to show you how?" + +Lily nodded. She felt embarrassed. She did not like to make mistakes. + +Mommy sat down with Lily and held the sock. She showed Lily how to cross the ends and make a loop. She helped Lily pull the ends through the loop. They made a bow. + +"See? You did it!" Mommy said. + +Lily looked at her sock. She saw the bow. She felt happy and proud. She hugged Mommy. + +"Thank you, Mommy. I love you," she said. + +"I love you too, Lily. You are a smart and brave girl," Mommy said. +Tom and Jen are friends. They like to play with blocks and cars. Yesterday, they went to the park with their moms. They saw a big slide and a swing. They wanted to try them. + +"Can we go on the slide, mom?" Tom asked. + +"Sure, but be careful. Wait for your turn and don't push anyone." Tom's mom said. + +"Can we go on the swing, mom?" Jen asked. + +"Okay, but don't swing too high. Hold on tight and don't let go." Jen's mom said. + +Tom and Jen ran to the slide and the swing. They had fun. But then they saw a boy with a red bike. The bike had a bell and a basket. It looked cool. + +"Wow, look at that bike!" Tom said. + +"I want to ride it!" Jen said. + +They ran to the boy and asked him if they could try his bike. + +"No, it's mine. Go away." The boy said. + +"Please, just for a minute. We'll give it back." Tom said. + +"No, I said no. It's not yours. It's mine." The boy said. + +Tom and Jen did not listen. They grabbed the bike and ran away. The boy cried and shouted for help. His mom came and saw what happened. She was angry. + +Tom and Jen rode the bike fast. They felt happy. But they did not know how to stop. They hit a rock and fell off. The bike broke. They hurt themselves. They cried and shouted for help. Their moms came and saw what happened. They were sad and mad. + +Tom and Jen had to say sorry to the boy and his mom. They had to give back the bike and pay for the damage. They had to go home and stay in their rooms. They could not play with blocks and cars. They learned a lesson. They should not take things that are not theirs. They should listen to their moms. They should be regular friends. +Sara and Tom are playing in the park. They like to look for hidden things in the grass and the trees. Sara has a comb in her pocket. She likes to comb her hair and make it shiny. + +"Look, Tom, I found a sign!" Sara says. She points to a wooden board with some letters on it. "What does it say?" + +Tom looks at the sign. He can read some words, but not all of them. He tries to sound them out. + +"It says...Do...not...pick...the...flow...ers," Tom says. "That means we cannot take the flowers from the ground. They belong to the park." + +"Oh, I see," Sara says. She nods. She likes flowers, but she knows they are not for picking. "Can we smell them?" + +"Yes, we can smell them," Tom says. He smiles. He likes the smell of flowers, too. He bends down and sniffs a yellow one. + +Sara does the same. She finds a pink one and smells it. It is sweet and nice. She sees something shiny in the middle of the flower. She reaches for it. + +"Hey, what is that?" Tom asks. He sees Sara holding something in her hand. + +"It is my comb!" Sara says. She is surprised and happy. "I lost it yesterday when we were playing here. It was hidden in the flower!" + +"Wow, that is lucky!" Tom says. He is glad Sara found her comb. "Now you can comb your hair and make it shiny again." + +"Yes, I can!" Sara says. She combs her hair and puts the comb back in her pocket. She thanks the flower for keeping her comb safe. She and Tom continue to play and look for hidden things in the park. They have a lot of fun. +Lily wanted to help her mom bake a cake. She liked to mix the flour and the eggs and the sugar in a big bowl. She also liked to lick the spoon when they were done. + +"Can I put the cake in the oven, mom?" Lily asked. + +"No, sweetie, the oven is very hot and sharp. You could burn yourself or cut yourself. You have to be patient and wait for me to do it," mom said. + +Lily was sad. She wanted to do everything by herself. She pouted and crossed her arms. + +"Please don't be mad, Lily. I know you are a big girl, but the oven is not safe for you. How about you help me with something else? You can decorate the cake with sprinkles and frosting when it is ready. Would you like that?" mom said. + +Lily nodded. She liked sprinkles and frosting. They were colorful and sweet. She smiled and hugged her mom. + +"Okay, mom. I will help you with that. I love you, mom," Lily said. + +"I love you too, Lily. You are a very good helper and a very patient girl," mom said. +Lily and Ben were playing hide and seek in the park. Lily was the seeker and Ben was the hider. Lily counted to ten and then said, "Ready or not, here I come!" + +Lily started to look for Ben. She checked behind the trees, under the benches, and in the bushes. She could not find him. She wondered where he was. She thought he was very good at hiding. + +She heard a giggle from the slide. She ran to the slide and saw Ben's feet sticking out. She said, "I found you, Ben! You are not so hidden after all!" + +Ben slid down and said, "You are a good seeker, Lily! You completed your search!" + +Lily and Ben smiled and hugged. They decided to switch roles and play again. They had a lot of fun in the park. +Sara liked to play with her mom's purse. It was red and shiny and had many things inside. Sara liked to open the purse and look at the things. She liked the keys, the phone, the wallet and the lipstick. She liked to pretend she was a grown-up lady. + +One day, Sara saw her mom's purse on the table. She wanted to play with it, but her mom was not home. She was at work. Sara thought it was okay to play with the purse, because her mom would not know. She took the purse and went to her room. + +Sara opened the purse and took out the things. She put the keys in her pocket, the phone in her ear, the wallet in her hand and the lipstick on her lips. She felt very happy and proud. She looked in the mirror and smiled. She looked like a grown-up lady. + +But then, she heard the door open. It was her mom. She came home early from work. She wanted to surprise Sara. She went to Sara's room and saw Sara with her purse and her things. She was not happy. She was angry. + +"Sara, what are you doing with my purse?" she asked. "You know you are not allowed to touch my purse. You could lose or break my things. You could hurt yourself with the lipstick. You are in big trouble, young lady." + +Sara felt very sad and scared. She did not want to make her mom angry. She did not want to be in trouble. She wanted to say sorry, but she could not find the words. She had gained a purse, but she had lost her mom's trust. She wished she had not played with the purse. She wished she had waited for her mom. She wished she had been a good girl. +Ben and Sam were friends who liked to play with cars. They had many cars of different colors and sizes. Some cars were fast, some cars were loud, some cars were shiny. Ben and Sam liked to race their cars on the floor and see who was the winner. + +One day, Sam got a new car from his mom. It was a big red car that looked very expensive. It had lights and sounds and could go very fast. Sam was very happy and wanted to show Ben his new car. He said, "Look at my new car, Ben! It is the best car ever! Do you want to race with me?" + +Ben looked at Sam's new car and felt sad. His cars were old and small and did not have lights or sounds. He thought Sam's new car was not fair. He said, "No, I don't want to race with you. Your car is too expensive and too fast. You will always win. That is not fun." + +Sam did not understand why Ben was sad. He thought Ben was jealous and mean. He said, "Fine, I don't need you. I can race by myself. My car is better than yours anyway." He turned on his new car and made it zoom on the floor. + +But as Sam was racing his new car, something bad happened. A big dog appeared from the door and saw Sam's car. The dog thought the car was a toy and wanted to play with it. The dog ran after the car and caught it in his mouth. He bit the car and broke it. The car stopped making lights and sounds and could not go fast anymore. + +Sam was very upset and cried. He ran to his mom and showed her his broken car. He said, "Mom, look what the dog did to my car! He ruined it! It was my best car ever!" + +His mom hugged him and said, "I'm sorry, Sam. I know you loved your car. But it was just a thing.

But now my car is gone and I have no one to play with." + +His mom said, "Why don't you go and say sorry to Ben? Maybe he will forgive you and play with you again. He is a good friend. You should be nice to him and share your cars. That is more fun than racing alone." + +Sam nodded and wiped his tears. He took one of his old cars and went to Ben's house. He knocked on the door and said, "Ben, I'm sorry. I was wrong. Can we be friends again? Can we play with our cars together?" + +Ben opened the door and smiled. He said, "Sure, Sam. I'm sorry too.

We don't know what marry means. Can you please teach us?" + +The man was surprised. He saw that they were sincere and curious. He said, "Well, kids, I can try. But it's not easy. Marry is a big word.

It was so perfect and shiny. How can we get it back?" Lily said, with tears in her eyes. + +"I don't know, Lily, I don't know. Maybe we can ask someone to help us. Or maybe we can find another penny someday. But don't be sad, Lily, we still have each other. We are still best friends," Ben said, and hugged Lily. + +Lily hugged Ben back and smiled. She wiped her tears and said, "You are right, Ben, we are still best friends. And maybe the penny is happy on the roof. Maybe it likes to spin in the sun and watch the birds.

I have some cars and books." + +Lia nodded and said, "Yes, please. Can I bring my dolls?" + +Ben said, "Of course. Come on, let's go." He took her hand and they walked to his hut. Spot followed them, wagging his tail. + +Lia was not shy anymore. She had made a new friend. +Lily and her mom went to the market to buy some food. Lily saw a big cake with pink frosting and asked her mom, "Can we get the cake, please?" + +Her mom looked at the cake and said, "No, Lily, we can't. The cake is too expensive and we have enough food at home. We need to save our money for other things." + +Lily felt sad and angry. She wanted the cake very much. She said, "But I want the cake, mom! It looks so yummy and pretty! Please, please, please!" + +Her mom replied, "Lily, stop asking for the cake. You are being greedy and rude. You should be grateful for what we have and not always want more. If you keep whining, we will go home right now and you will get no food at all." + +Lily did not listen to her mom. She kept crying and begging for the cake. She made a lot of noise and bothered the other people at the market. Her mom felt troubled and embarrassed. She said, "That's it, Lily. We are going home. You have been very naughty and spoiled. You need to learn to be content and respectful." + +She took Lily by the hand and walked away from the market. Lily realized that she had made a big mistake. She had lost her chance to get any food and she had upset her mom. She felt sorry and ashamed. She said, "Mom, I'm sorry. I was wrong. I don't need the cake. I love you and I appreciate what you do for me." + +Her mom replied, "I love you too, Lily. But you need to understand that you can't always get what you want. You need to be happy with what you have and not be greedy. You also need to be polite and quiet when we are at the market. That way, we can have a nice time and not trouble anyone." + +Lily nodded and hugged her mom. She learned her lesson and promised to be a better daughter. She hoped that her mom would forgive her and maybe buy her a small treat later. + +The moral value of the story is: Be grateful for what you have and not be greedy. Be polite and quiet when you are at the market. +Tom is a hairy dog. He likes to play with his friend, Sam. Sam is a boy. He lives in a big house with Tom and his mom and dad. + +One day, Tom and Sam go to the park. They see a big slide. Sam wants to go on the slide. He says, "Tom, let's go on the slide. It looks fun!" + +Tom nods. He follows Sam to the slide. But when they get there, they see a mean cat. The cat is on the slide. He hisses at Tom and Sam. He says, "This is my slide. Go away. You are zero. You are nothing." + +Sam is scared. He does not like the mean cat. He says, "Tom, what do we do?" + +Tom is not scared. He is brave. He wants to protect Sam. He says, "Sam, don't worry. I will make the cat go away. You are not zero. You are my friend. You are something." + +Tom barks at the cat. He runs to the slide. He chases the cat away. The cat runs and hides. He does not come back. + +Tom and Sam are happy. They go on the slide. They have fun. They laugh and smile. They say, "We are not zero. We are one. We are friends." +Anna and Ben like to play in the park. They see many trees in the park. Some trees are big and some trees are small. Some trees have green leaves and some trees have red leaves. Anna and Ben run and jump and laugh. + +They find a tree that is different from the other trees. It is not big or small. It is not green or red. It is regular. It has a brown trunk and round branches. Anna and Ben are curious. They touch the tree and feel its bark. + +"Hello, tree," Anna says. "Are you happy here?" + +The tree does not answer. It is quiet. + +"Maybe the tree is shy," Ben says. "Or maybe it is sleepy." + +They try to make the tree talk. They sing a song. They tell a joke. They ask a question. But the tree does not say anything. It is still quiet. + +Anna and Ben are sad. They want to be friends with the tree. + +"Maybe the tree is lonely," Anna says. "Maybe it needs a hug." + +They hug the tree and feel its warmth. They smile and say, "We like you, tree. You are regular and nice." + +The tree does not say anything. But it moves a little. It shakes its branches and drops a pine cone. Anna and Ben catch the pine cone and feel its prickles. They laugh and say, "Thank you, tree. You are regular and fun." +Ben was a big boy. He was three years old. He liked to play with his cars and his blocks. He did not like to go to the doctor. The doctor was nice, but he had a big needle. The needle hurt Ben's arm. + +One day, Ben had to go to the doctor for a test. He did not want to go. He was scared of the needle. He hid under his bed. His mom found him and said, "Ben, you have to go to the doctor. The test is easy. It will not hurt. It will help you stay healthy." + +Ben did not believe his mom. He cried and kicked. His mom carried him to the car. She drove him to the doctor. Ben shivered in the car. He was cold and scared. He held his teddy bear tight. + +At the doctor's office, Ben saw the big needle. He screamed and ran away. The doctor and his mom chased him. They caught him and put him on a table. The doctor smiled and said, "Ben, don't be afraid. The test is easy. It will not hurt. It will only pinch a little. You are a brave boy." + +The doctor put a band-aid on Ben's arm. He gave him a sticker and a lollipop. He said, "Ben, you did a great job. The test is over. You are healthy and strong. You can go home now." + +Ben stopped crying. He looked at his band-aid, his sticker and his lollipop. He felt proud. He said, "Thank you, doctor. The test was easy. It did not hurt. I am a brave boy." He hugged his mom and his teddy bear. He smiled and waved goodbye to the doctor. He was happy to go home. +Lily and Ben were friends who liked to play outside. One day, they saw some people decorate the street with lights and flowers. They wanted to help, but the people said they were too small. + +"Let's decorate our own street!" Lily said. She and Ben ran to their houses and got some paper, crayons, scissors and tape. They made colorful shapes and letters and taped them to the trees, fences and mailboxes. + +They were very proud of their work and wanted to show it to everyone. They saw an old man walking his dog. He was deaf and could not hear them. They waved and smiled at him, but he did not see them. He looked sad and lonely. + +"Maybe he needs a friend," Ben said. He ran to his house and got a bone for the dog. He gave it to the old man, who smiled and nodded. He pointed to his ear and shook his head. He could not hear, but he could understand. + +Lily ran to her house and got a card. She wrote "Hello" and "We like you" on it. She gave it to the old man, who smiled and nodded. He pointed to his heart and gave them a thumbs up. He could not hear, but he could feel. + +Lily and Ben felt happy and warm. They learned that they could decorate the street with kindness and friendship, not just with paper and crayons. They hugged the old man and his dog and went to play some more. +Tim and Sam were best friends. They liked to play with their toy cars and trucks. One day, they saw an enormous truck parked outside their house. It was red and shiny and had a big horn. + +"Wow, look at that truck!" Tim said. "It is so big and loud!" + +"I want to see it closer!" Sam said. "Let's go and touch it!" + +But their mom said no. She said the truck was not theirs and they had to stay away. She said the truck had a lot of value and the driver would be angry if they touched it. + +Tim and Sam were sad. They wanted to play with the enormous truck. They had a plan. They waited until their mom was busy in the kitchen. Then they sneaked out of the house and ran to the truck. + +They climbed on the truck and pretended to drive it. They honked the horn and made engine noises. They had a lot of fun. + +But then they heard a loud voice. It was the driver. He was very angry. He saw Tim and Sam on his truck and shouted at them. + +"Hey, you little rascals! Get off my truck right now! This is not a toy! This is my work! You could have damaged it!" + +Tim and Sam were scared. They jumped off the truck and ran back to their house. They said sorry to the driver and to their mom. They learned their lesson. They never touched the enormous truck again. They played with their toy cars and trucks instead. They were still best friends. +Tom and Anna were playing in the garden. They saw a big box near the fence. They ran to the box and opened it. Inside the box, there were many springs of different colors and sizes. + +"Wow, look at these springs!" Tom said. "They are so fun and bouncy!" + +"Let's take them out and play with them!" Anna said. They took out the springs and started to jump on them and throw them in the air. + +But they did not know that the box belonged to Mr. Brown, the grumpy neighbor. He had collected the springs for his hobby. He did not like children or noise. He heard the children playing and came out of his house. + +"Hey, you little brats! What are you doing with my springs?" Mr. Brown shouted. He was very angry and scary. + +Tom and Anna were frightened. They dropped the springs and tried to run away. But Mr. Brown was faster. He grabbed them by their arms and dragged them to the box. + +"You will pay for this! You will stay in this box until your parents come and apologize!" Mr. Brown said. He pushed them into the box and closed the lid. He locked the box with a big padlock. + +Tom and Anna were trapped in the box. They could not see or breathe well. They felt the springs poking and scratching them. They were very uncomfortable and scared. They cried and screamed for help. But no one heard them. They wished they had never opened the box. +Lily and Max were twins who liked to bake with their mom. They always helped her mix the flour, sugar, eggs and butter in a big bowl. Then they poured the batter into a pan and put it in the oven. The oven was hot and made the cake rise and smell good. + +But Lily and Max were also competitive. They always wanted to have the biggest piece of cake, or the most frosting, or the most sprinkles. They would argue and fight over who got what, and sometimes they would make a mess in the kitchen. Their mom was not happy with them. + +One day, their mom had a surprise for them. She said she had invited their friends from preschool to come over and have cake with them. Lily and Max were excited, but also worried. How would they share the cake with so many people? Would they still get enough for themselves? + +Their mom smiled and said, "Don't worry, I made two cakes today. One for you and one for your friends. You can each decorate your own cake and welcome your friends with it. But remember, sharing is caring. The more you give, the more you get." + +Lily and Max thought about it. They liked their friends, and they wanted them to have fun. They also liked their mom, and they wanted her to be proud of them. They decided to be nice and generous, and not fight over the cake. They had fun decorating their cakes with frosting and sprinkles, and then they waited for their friends to arrive. + +When the doorbell rang, they ran to open it. They saw their friends with big smiles and gifts. They said, "Welcome, welcome, come in! We have cake for you!" They showed them their cakes and let them choose which one they wanted. Their friends were happy and thanked them. They all went to the table and enjoyed the cake together. Lily and Max felt good. They realized that sharing was better than competing. They hugged their mom and said, "Thank you, mom, for the best surprise ever!" Their mom hugged them back and said, "You're welcome, my sweeties. I'm so proud of you!" +Sam and Mia are friends. They like to play with blocks. They have many blocks of different colors and shapes. They can make towers, houses, cars and more. + +One day, they want to make a big square with all their blocks. They put the blocks together on the floor. They use red, blue, yellow and green blocks. They are happy with their square. + +But then, a wild cat comes into the room. The cat sees the square and thinks it is a toy. The cat jumps on the square and knocks down the blocks. The blocks fly everywhere. The square is gone. + +Sam and Mia are sad and angry. They shout at the cat. + +"Bad cat! Go away! You broke our square!" + +The cat does not listen. The cat likes the blocks. The cat plays with the blocks and makes noise. + +Sam and Mia do not know what to do. They want their square back. They try to get the blocks from the cat. But the cat is fast and strong. The cat scratches and bites. + +Sam and Mia are scared. They run away from the cat. They find a safe place behind the sofa. They hug each other and cry. + +They wish the cat would leave. They wish they could make their square again. They miss their square. +Tim and Lily were friends who liked to play in the park. One day, they saw a big red ball near the slide. They ran to get it, but a man stopped them. He was angry and said, "This is my ball. You can't have it. Go away." + +Tim and Lily were scared and said, "Sorry, sir. We didn't know. We just wanted to play." The man said, "Too bad. You should know better. This is a special ball. It can fly and talk and do tricks. You are foolish kids who don't understand anything." + +The man took the ball and threw it in the air. He said, "Watch this. Ball, fly to the moon and back." The ball flew up and up and up. Tim and Lily watched with wonder. They thought the ball was amazing. They wished they could have it. + +But the ball did not come back. It flew too high and got lost in the sky. The man was sad and angry. He said, "Ball, come back. Come back. Where are you?" He waited and waited, but the ball did not come back. He had lost his special ball. + +Tim and Lily felt sorry for the man, but they also thought he was foolish. He should not have been mean to them. He should not have thrown his ball so high. He should have shared his ball with them. They said, "Goodbye, sir. We hope you find your ball." They left the park and went home. They decided to play with their own toys and be nice to each other. They were happy and smart friends. +Ben and Lily are playing in the park. They like to slide, swing and run. They see a big door in the wall. It is green and old. + +"Let's go see what is behind the door," Ben says. + +"OK, but be careful," Lily says. + +They open the door and walk inside. It is dark and cold. They hear a strange noise. + +"What is that?" Lily asks. + +"I don't know. Maybe it is a monster," Ben says. + +They see a light at the end of the hall. They run towards it. They hope it is a way out. + +But when they reach the light, they see it is a deep hole. They stop and look down. They see nothing but black. + +"Help!" Ben and Lily scream. + +They hear the door slam behind them. They are trapped. + +The end. +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play with their toys and share their snacks. But sometimes they fight over who gets what. + +One day, Mom gives them each a cup of juice and a cookie. Lily takes a sip of her juice and puts her cup on the table. Ben sees her cup and thinks it looks better than his. He grabs it and drinks from it. + +"Hey, that's my cup!" Lily says. "Give it back!" + +"No, it's mine now!" Ben says. "You have your own cup!" + +Lily gets angry and tries to take her cup back. Ben holds it tight and runs away. Lily chases him around the room. + +Mom hears them and comes to see what is wrong. She sees them fighting over the cup and sighs. + +"Stop, stop, stop!" Mom says. "What are you doing?" + +"Ben took my cup!" Lily says. "It's not fair!" + +"Lily left her cup!" Ben says. "It's not fair!" + +Mom looks at the cup and sees that it has both their names on it. She shows them the cup and says, "Look, this cup is for both of you. It has Lily and Ben on it. You can share it and take turns." + +Lily and Ben look at the cup and feel silly. They say sorry to each other and hug. + +"Can we have our cookies now?" Lily asks. + +"Sure, you can have your cookies," Mom says. "But remember to chew them well and not fight over them." + +Lily and Ben nod and smile. They sit down and enjoy their cookies and juice. They share their cup and say, "Cheers!" +Tom and Lily were playing in the park. They liked to look for pebbles of different colors and shapes. They found a big pebble that was shiny and smooth. It looked like a treasure. + +"Wow, look at this pebble!" Tom said. "It is so pretty. Can I have it?" + +"No, it is mine!" Lily said. "I saw it first. You can have another pebble." + +Tom was sad. He wanted the shiny pebble too. He thought of a plan. He said, "OK, you can have the pebble. But can I see it for a moment? I want to look at it closer." + +Lily was happy. She thought Tom was nice. She said, "OK, here you go. But give it back soon." + +Tom took the pebble and ran away. He saw a small house in the park. It had a door and a window. He went inside the house and locked the door. He said, "Ha ha, now the pebble is mine!" + +Lily followed Tom. She saw him go inside the house. She tried to open the door, but it was locked. She knocked on the door and said, "Tom, open the door! Give me back my pebble! That is not fair!" + +Tom did not open the door. He said, "No, I like the pebble. It is mine now. Go away!" + +Lily was angry and sad. She cried. She said, "Tom, you are not my friend. You are mean. I don't want to play with you anymore." + +She walked away from the house. She saw a big dog in the park. The dog was friendly and wagged its tail. It licked Lily's face and made her smile. She said, "Hello, dog. Do you want to play with me? You are nice. You are my friend." + +The dog barked and nodded. It followed Lily to the swings. They had fun together. Lily forgot about the pebble and Tom. She was happy. +Lily and Ben are twins. They are three years old. They like to play with their toys and their dog, Spot. Spot is big and brown and friendly. + +One day, Lily and Ben want to feed Spot. They ask their mom for some dog food. Mom gives them a bowl and a can. She says, "Be careful, kids. Don't spill the food. And don't feed Spot too much. He is getting old and slow." + +Lily and Ben nod. They take the bowl and the can to the backyard. They open the can and pour some food into the bowl. They put the bowl on the ground and call Spot. Spot comes running. He wags his tail and licks their faces. + +"Good boy, Spot!" Lily says. "We have a yummy treat for you. Here you go!" + +Spot sniffs the bowl and starts to eat. He makes happy noises. Lily and Ben watch him. They smile and clap. + +"Spot likes the food, Ben!" Lily says. "He is eating fast!" + +"Yes, he does, Lily!" Ben says. "But he is still slow. Look, he can't catch the ball!" + +Ben throws a ball to Spot. Spot tries to catch it, but he misses. The ball bounces away. Spot chases it, but he is too slow. He stops and pants. + +Lily and Ben laugh. They run to Spot and hug him. They say, "It's okay, Spot. We love you. You are our best friend. You don't have to be fast. You are smart and sweet and old. You are four years old. That's older than us!" + +Spot wags his tail and licks their faces. He is happy. He has food and toys and kids. He loves Lily and Ben. They are his best friends. He doesn't care if he is slow. He is happy. +Sam likes to play basketball with his friends. He can bounce the ball and throw it in the hoop. He feels happy when he plays. One day, he sees a new boy at the park. The boy has a basketball too, but he is alone. Sam wants to be nice, so he asks the boy, "Do you want to play with us?" + +The boy nods and smiles. He says, "Yes, thank you. My name is Ben. I just moved here. I don't have any friends yet." Sam says, "I'm Sam. These are my friends, Mia and Leo. We can be your friends too. Come on, let's play." Sam and his friends share their basketballs with Ben and teach him some tricks. They have fun together. + +After a while, Sam's mom comes to pick him up. She says, "It's time to go home, Sam. Did you have a good time?" Sam says, "Yes, mom. I made a new friend. His name is Ben. He is nice. Can we play again tomorrow?" Sam's mom says, "Of course, Sam. I'm proud of you for being kind and friendly. That's a good way to make friends. You can invite Ben to our house sometime." Sam hugs his mom and says, "Thank you, mom. I love you." He waves goodbye to Ben and his friends and goes home. He feels happy and warm in his heart. He learned that sharing and caring are important. He can't wait to play basketball again. +Tom and Anna are friends. They like to play together. They have many toys and games. Sometimes they share, sometimes they fight. + +One day, they are playing with blocks. Tom wants to build a tower. Anna wants to build a house. They both want the same blocks. They start to argue. + +"Give me that block!" Tom says. + +"No, it's mine!" Anna says. + +They pull and push the block. The block falls and breaks. They both cry. + +Mom hears them and comes to see. She is not happy. She says, "Why are you fighting? You need to discuss. Discuss means to talk and listen. You can find a way to play together." + +Tom and Anna look at each other. They are sad and sorry. They say, "Sorry, Mom. Sorry, friend." + +Mom says, "It's okay. I know you are tired. Tired means you need to rest. Your brain is tired too. Your brain is inside your head. It helps you think and feel. When your brain is tired, you can get angry or sad. You need to be kind to your brain and your friend." + +Tom and Anna nod. They hug Mom and each other. They say, "We love you, Mom. We love you, friend." + +Mom smiles. She says, "I love you too. Now, let's clean up the blocks and have a snack. Then you can play something else or take a nap." + +Tom and Anna agree. They help Mom to pick up the blocks. They have some juice and cookies. They feel better. They decide to play with dolls. They share and have fun. They are happy. +Sara likes to play dress-up with her dolls. She has many dolls with different names and clothes. She likes to name them after her friends and family. One day, she finds a new doll in her toy box. She does not know who gave it to her, but she likes it very much. The doll has long hair, big eyes and a smile. She also has attractive pants with flowers on them. + +Sara decides to name the doll Lily, because Lily is her favorite flower. She thinks Lily and her other dolls will be good friends. She takes them to her tea party in the garden. She gives them cups and plates and pretends to pour tea. She talks to them and tells them stories. She is very happy. + +But then, her brother Tom comes and sees the dolls. He does not like dolls. He likes cars and trucks and dinosaurs. He thinks dolls are silly and boring. He wants to play with Sara, but he does not want to play with her dolls. He grabs Lily and says, "This doll is ugly. Her pants are too girly. I will take them off and give them to my dinosaur." + +Sara is very angry and sad. She loves Lily and her pants. She does not want Tom to take them. She shouts, "No, Tom! Lily is my doll. Her pants are attractive. You cannot have them. Give them back to me!" + +Tom and Sara start to fight. They pull and tug and yell. Lily and her pants are in the middle. They are about to tear. Sara and Tom do not see their mom coming. She sees them and says, "Stop, children! What are you doing? Why are you fighting over a doll and her pants?" + +Sara and Tom stop and look at their mom. They feel ashamed. They know they did something bad. They say, "Sorry, mom. We were playing and we got angry." + +Mom says, "Playing is good, but fighting is bad. You should share and respect each other's toys. You should also be nice to your dolls. They are not real, but they have feelings too. How would you feel if someone took your clothes and gave them to a dinosaur?" + +Sara and Tom think about it. They feel sorry for Lily and her pants. They say, "We would feel sad and scared. We would not like it." + +Mom says, "Then you should not do it to Lily. She is Sara's doll and she likes her pants. You should apologize to her and to each other. Then you can play together nicely. Maybe you can find something that you both like, like a book or a puzzle or a ball." + +Sara and Tom nod. They say, "Okay, mom. We are sorry, Lily. We are sorry, Sara. We are sorry, Tom. We will play together nicely. We will find something that we both like." + +Mom smiles. She says, "That's good, children. I am proud of you. Now, let's go inside and have some cookies and milk. And maybe you can tell me who gave you this new doll. She is very pretty. I like her pants." +Tom and Mia are friends. They like to play in the farm. They see many animals, like cows, pigs, and sheep. Tom likes sheep. He thinks they are soft and white. Mia likes pigs. She thinks they are funny and pink. + +One day, they see a sheep that is not happy. It has a hurt leg. It cannot walk well. It makes a sad sound. Tom and Mia feel sorry for the sheep. They want to help it. + +"Let's go and see the sheep," Tom says. "Maybe we can make it feel better." + +"OK," Mia says. "But be careful. The sheep might be scared of us." + +They walk slowly to the sheep. They talk to it in a gentle voice. They touch it softly. The sheep looks at them with big eyes. It stops making the sad sound. + +"Hello, sheep," Tom says. "We are your friends. We want to help you. What is your name?" + +The sheep does not answer. It does not know how to talk. But it likes Tom and Mia. It feels their kindness. + +"Maybe we can support the sheep," Mia says. "We can put a stick under its leg. Then it can walk better." + +"That's a good idea," Tom says. "You are very smart, Mia." + +They look for a stick. They find one that is tough and long. They put it under the sheep's leg. They tie it with a rope. The sheep tries to stand up. It can walk a little bit. It makes a happy sound. + +"Look, we did it!" Tom says. "The sheep can walk!" + +"Yay, we did it!" Mia says. "The sheep is happy!" + +The sheep walks with them. It follows them to the barn. It thanks them with a kiss. Tom and Mia hug the sheep. They are happy too. They are good friends. They support each other. +Tom and Sam are brothers. They like to play with their football in the park. One day, they go to the park with their mom. They see a big slide and a swing. They want to try them. + +"Mom, can we play on the slide and the swing?" Tom asks. + +"Sure, but don't forget your football. You can play with it later," Mom says. + +Tom and Sam run to the slide and the swing. They have fun. They take turns. They laugh and shout. + +After a while, they feel hungry. They go back to their mom. They see a boy holding their football. He is kicking it hard. + +"Hey, that's our football!" Sam says. + +"Give it back!" Tom says. + +The boy looks at them. He shakes his head. He says, "No, it's mine now. I found it. Go away." + +Tom and Sam are angry. They want their football. They run to the boy. They try to grab the football. The boy kicks it away. He runs after it. + +"Stop! That's not fair!" Tom and Sam yell. + +Mom sees them. She goes to them. She says, "What's going on? Why are you fighting?" + +"Mom, he took our football. He won't give it back. He says it's his," Tom says. + +"He's lying. We left it here. We went to play on the slide and the swing. We came back and he had it," Sam says. + +Mom looks at the boy. She says, "Is that true? Did you take their football?" + +The boy nods. He says, "Yes, but I like it. It's a nice football. Can I keep it?" + +Mom says, "No, you can't. That's not nice. That's stealing. You have to give it back. How would you feel if someone took your toy?" + +The boy thinks. He feels sorry. He says, "I would feel sad. I'm sorry. Here, you can have your football." + +He gives the football to Tom and Sam. They say, "Thank you. We're sorry we yelled at you. Do you want to play with us?" + +The boy says, "Yes, please. That would be fun. I'm sorry I was mean. What's your name?" + +They tell him their names. They become friends. They play with the football. They share their snacks. They are not hungry anymore. They are happy. Mom is happy too. She smiles and watches them. +Lily loved to play with clay. She liked to make shapes and animals and give them names. She had a big box of clay in different colors that her mom gave her for her birthday. + +One day, she wanted to make a clay family. She took some red clay and made a mom, some blue clay and made a dad, some yellow clay and made a baby, and some green clay and made a dog. She put them on a tray and smiled. They looked happy. + +She showed her clay family to her mom, who was in the kitchen. "Look, mom, I made us!" she said proudly. + +Mom looked at the tray and hugged Lily. "They are very nice, sweetie. But why is the dad blue?" she asked. + +Lily looked troubled. She did not know how to answer. She remembered that her dad was always sad and quiet. He did not play with her or mom. He did not smile. He sometimes cried. She thought he was blue inside. + +She shrugged and said, "I don't know. I just like blue." + +Mom smiled sadly and kissed her. "I like blue too. But you know what? I love you and dad more than any color. And I'm sure he loves us too, even if he doesn't show it." + +She took the tray and put it on the table. "Why don't we have some cookies and milk, and then we can play with your clay family together? Maybe we can make them some friends." + +Lily nodded and followed her mom. She hoped that her clay family would make her dad happy. She hoped that he would play with them and smile. She hoped that he would not be blue anymore. +Anna loved reindeer. She had a toy reindeer that she took everywhere. She named it Rudy. Rudy had a red nose that glowed in the dark. Anna thought Rudy was unique and special. + +One day, Anna went to the park with her mom. She saw a big sign that said "Reindeer Farm". She wanted to see the real reindeer. She asked her mom if they could go. Her mom said yes, but they had to pay some money and follow the rules. + +Anna and her mom entered the farm. They saw many reindeer in a big fence. They had brown fur and big antlers. They looked different from Rudy. Anna was curious. She wanted to touch them and play with them. She saw a bucket of carrots near the fence. She took one and reached out to a reindeer. + +"Hello, reindeer," she said. "Do you want a carrot? You are so pretty. Can I be your friend?" + +The reindeer sniffed the carrot and took a bite. It seemed friendly. Anna smiled. She gave it another carrot. She felt happy. + +But then, another reindeer came. It was bigger and stronger than the first one. It wanted the carrots too. It pushed the first reindeer away. It snorted and stomped. It looked angry. + +"Hey, stop it!" Anna said. "That's not nice. You have to share. There are enough carrots for everyone." + +The big reindeer did not listen. It wanted all the carrots. It saw Anna holding the bucket. It charged at her. It used its antlers to knock the bucket out of her hands. The carrots flew everywhere. Anna screamed. She dropped Rudy on the ground. + +The big reindeer saw Rudy. It thought Rudy was another carrot. It grabbed Rudy with its mouth. It bit Rudy hard. Rudy's red nose popped. Rudy's stuffing came out. Rudy was broken. + +Anna cried. She ran to Rudy. She tried to save him. But it was too late. Rudy was gone. Anna was sad. She hugged Rudy's remains. She wished she never came to the farm. + +Her mom heard her cry. She ran to her. She saw what happened. She was shocked. She scolded the big reindeer. She comforted Anna. She apologized to her. She said they would get a new toy reindeer. + +But Anna did not want a new toy reindeer. She wanted Rudy. Rudy was unique and special. Rudy was her best friend. She missed him. She hated the big reindeer. She hated the farm. She wanted to go home. She learned a hard lesson. She learned that some reindeer are mean and greedy. She learned that some things can't be replaced. She learned that life is not fair. She was unhappy. The end. +Anna and Ben are friends. They like to play in the park. One day, they see a big lemon tree. The lemons are yellow and round. They smell good. + +Anna and Ben want to pick some lemons. They ask their moms if they can. Their moms say yes, but be careful. The lemon tree has sharp thorns. Anna and Ben say okay. They hold hands and walk to the lemon tree. + +They see some lemons that are low and easy to reach. They pick them gently and put them in a basket. They are happy. They wave to their moms. Their moms wave back. They are proud of Anna and Ben. + +But then, Anna sees a lemon that is high and big. She wants it. She lets go of Ben's hand and climbs on a branch. She reaches for the lemon. But the branch is weak and breaks. Anna falls down. She cries. She hurts her arm and leg. + +Ben is scared. He runs to Anna and hugs her. He shouts for help. Their moms hear him and come quickly. They see Anna on the ground. They are worried. They lift her up and check her. She has some scratches and bruises, but nothing serious. They hug her and kiss her. They tell her she is brave and strong. They tell her she will be okay. + +They take Anna and Ben to a bench. They give them some water and a band-aid. They tell them they are safe and loved. They tell them they did a good job picking lemons, but they should be more careful next time. Anna and Ben say sorry and thank you. They smile and hug their moms. They share their lemons with them. They are happy again. They wave to the lemon tree and say goodbye. They go home. +Ben and Lily were twins who loved to visit their grandpa's ranch. They liked to see the horses, cows, chickens and dogs that lived there. They also liked to help their grandpa with his chores, like feeding the animals, collecting eggs and brushing the horses. + +One day, a new boy came to the ranch. His name was Max and he was their grandpa's friend's son. He said he was from the city and he knew everything about ranch life. He was very rude to Ben and Lily. He laughed at their clothes, their names and their toys. He said they were silly and boring. + +Ben and Lily felt sad and angry. They did not want to play with Max. They wanted him to go away. They told their grandpa how Max was mean to them. Their grandpa said, "I'm sorry, kids. Max is not very nice. He does not have many friends. He does not know how to share or be kind. He thinks he is better than everyone else. But he is not. He is lonely and unhappy." + +Ben and Lily felt sorry for Max. They thought maybe he was rude because he did not have fun at his home. They decided to give him another chance. They invited him to join them in their games. They showed him their favorite spots on the ranch. They taught him how to feed the animals, collect eggs and brush the horses. + +Max was surprised. He did not expect Ben and Lily to be nice to him after he was rude to them. He felt ashamed of his behavior. He realized he did not know everything about ranch life. He saw how much Ben and Lily loved their grandpa and his animals. He admired their skills, their joy and their kindness. He said, "I'm sorry, Ben and Lily. I was wrong. You are not silly and boring. You are smart and fun. Can we be friends?" + +Ben and Lily smiled. They said, "Of course, Max. We can be friends. We are glad you are here. We can teach you more about ranch life. And you can teach us more about city life. We can learn from each other." + +Max smiled too. He felt happy. He thanked Ben and Lily for their friendship. He thanked their grandpa for his hospitality. He said, "I like your ranch. It is beautiful and peaceful. I like your animals. They are friendly and gentle. I like you. You are generous and good. I want to be like you." + +The moral of the story is: Don't be rude to others. Be humble and respectful. You can make friends by being kind and helpful. You can admire and appreciate different ways of life. +Lily and Ben are twins. They like to play in their room. They have many toys and books. They also have a big poster of space on the wall. It has stars, planets and a rocket. + +One day, they pretend to be astronauts. They wear helmets and backpacks. They say they are going to the moon. They jump on the bed and make noises. "Zoom, zoom, zoom!" they say. + +They hear a knock on the door. It is their mom. She opens the door and smiles. She sees them playing. She says, "Hello, my little astronauts. What are you doing?" + +"We are going to the moon, mom," Lily says. "We want to see the stars and the planets." + +"And the aliens," Ben adds. "Maybe they are cute and friendly." + +Mom laughs. She says, "That sounds like fun. But you know, space is very far and very cold. You need a real rocket and a suit to go there. And you don't know if there are aliens or not. Maybe they are not cute or friendly. Maybe they are scary or mean." + +Lily and Ben look at each other. They think for a moment. They say, "Maybe you are right, mom. Maybe space is not so fun. Maybe we can play something else." + +Mom nods. She says, "Why don't you play with your teddy bears? They are cute and friendly. And they are always here for you." + +Lily and Ben agree. They take off their helmets and backpacks. They pick up their teddy bears. They hug them and say, "We love you, teddy bears. You are the best." + +Mom smiles. She says, "I love you, too, my little astronauts. You are the best, too." She kisses them and leaves the room. + +Lily and Ben cuddle with their teddy bears. They look at the poster of space. They say, "Maybe one day, we will go to the moon. But for now, we are happy here." +Tim and Sam were friends who liked to play with toys. One day, they found a big book with many strange words and pictures. They opened the book and saw a page that said "Spell to make things fly". + +"Wow, this looks fun!" Sam said. "Let's try it!" + +"No, Sam, we should not do that," Tim said. "This book is not for us. It is for grown-ups who know magic. It could be dangerous." + +But Sam did not listen to Tim. He wanted to see what would happen. He read the words on the page out loud. He did not know what they meant, but he hoped they would work. + +Suddenly, the toys on the floor began to move. They lifted off the ground and flew around the room. Tim and Sam were scared and confused. They did not know how to stop the spell. + +"Help! Help!" they shouted. "Make it stop!" + +The toys flew faster and faster. They bumped into the walls, the furniture, and the boys. Tim and Sam ducked and dodged, but they could not avoid them. + +"Ow! Ow! That hurts!" Tim cried. "Sam, why did you do this?" + +"I'm sorry, Tim, I'm sorry!" Sam said. "I did not know this would happen. I just wanted to have fun." + +They heard a loud knock on the door. It was Tim's mom. She had heard the noise and came to see what was wrong. + +"Tim, Sam, what is going on in here?" she asked. She opened the door and saw the mess. She saw the flying toys and the scared boys. She saw the book on the bed. She was angry and worried. + +"Tim, Sam, what have you done?" she asked. "This book is not a toy. It is a very old and powerful book of magic. You should not have touched it. You could have hurt yourselves or others. You should have listened to Tim. He tried to warn you." + +She grabbed the book and looked for the page that had the spell. She found it and read the words to end it. The toys fell to the floor and stopped moving. The room was quiet. + +"Tim, Sam, you are in big trouble," she said. "You have to clean up this mess and apologize to each other. And you have to promise me you will never play with this book again. Do you understand?" + +"Yes, mom, we understand," Tim and Sam said. They were sorry and ashamed. They hugged each other and said they were sorry. They cleaned up the mess and put the toys away. They never played with the book again. They learned their lesson. They learned to be careful with magic and to listen to warnings. +Lily and Tom were playing in the park. They saw a big slide and ran to it. Lily wanted to go first, but Tom said no. He said he was older and bigger, so he should go first. Lily was sad and angry. + +She said, "That is not fair! We can take turns. You are not nice, Tom!" + +Tom did not listen. He climbed up the ladder and raised his arms. He was ready to slide down. But then he saw something on the slide. It was a small bird. The bird was hurt and could not fly. It looked scared and lonely. + +Tom felt sorry for the bird. He forgot about the slide. He gently touched the bird and picked it up. He said, "Don't worry, little bird. I will help you. You are my friend." + +Lily saw what Tom did. She smiled and climbed up the ladder too. She said, "Tom, you are very kind. Can I help you with the bird? We can be friends too." + +Tom nodded and smiled. He said, "Yes, Lily. You can help me. We can be friends too. I am sorry I was not nice to you. You can go first on the slide next time." + +Lily and Tom took the bird to an old lady who lived near the park. She knew how to take care of animals. She thanked Lily and Tom for bringing the bird to her. She said, "You are very brave and good children. You have learned a valuable lesson. It is better to share and care than to fight and be selfish. The bird will be happy with you as his friends." + +Lily and Tom hugged the old lady and the bird. They felt happy and proud. They learned that kindness is more important than being first. They decided to play together and help each other from then on. +Anna and Ben went to the bakery with their mom. They saw many pastries in the window. They smelled sweet and yummy. Anna wanted a chocolate pastry. Ben wanted a cheese pastry. + +"Can we have a pastry, mom?" Anna asked. + +"Sure, you can choose one each. But only after lunch, okay?" mom said. + +Anna and Ben nodded. They followed mom to the counter. Mom ordered some bread and some pastries. The baker put them in a bag. He smiled at Anna and Ben. + +"Here, you can have a small pastry now. It's a surprise. Tell me what it tastes like," he said. He gave them each a tiny pastry wrapped in paper. + +"Thank you, mister!" Anna and Ben said. They opened the paper and bit into the pastries. They were warm and soft. + +Anna tasted chocolate and nuts. She liked it a lot. She smiled and said, "It tastes like brown and crunchy." + +Ben tasted cheese and ham. He liked it too. He grinned and said, "It tastes like yellow and salty." + +The baker laughed. He said, "You have good taste, kids. Enjoy your pastries." + +Anna and Ben thanked him again. They followed mom to the car. They ate their pastries on the way home. They were happy and full. + +The car was noisy. They heard horns and sirens and people talking. Anna and Ben did not mind. They liked the noise. It made them feel alive. They looked out the window and saw many things. They saw cars and buses and bikes. They saw shops and houses and parks. They saw dogs and cats and birds. They saw people and colors and shapes. + +They pointed and named everything they saw. They learned new words. They asked mom questions. Mom answered them. She was proud of them. She loved them. + +They had a good day. They liked the bakery. They liked the pastries. They liked the noise. They liked the world. +Lily and Max were playing in the yard. They liked to make piles of leaves and jump on them. Lily had a blue rake that she used to gather the leaves. Max had a red rake that he found in the shed. + +"Look, I made a big pile!" Lily said, pointing to her leaves. "It's bigger than yours!" + +"No, it's not!" Max said, looking at his pile. "Mine is bigger and better!" + +They ran to each other's piles and started to examine them. They counted the leaves and compared the colors and shapes. + +"See, I have more leaves!" Lily said. "And they are prettier!" + +"No, you don't!" Max said. "And they are not!" + +They began to argue and pull each other's leaves. They got angry and sad. + +"Stop it!" a voice said. It was Mom, who came out of the house. "What are you doing?" + +"Lily said her pile is bigger and better than mine!" Max said. + +"Max said his pile is bigger and better than mine!" Lily said. + +Mom sighed and shook her head. She walked to the piles and looked at them. + +"They are both nice piles," she said. "But they are not for fighting. They are for having fun. Why don't you share your rakes and make one big pile together?" + +Lily and Max thought about it. They looked at each other and nodded. + +"OK, Mom," they said. + +They gave each other their rakes and started to work together. They moved the leaves and made one big pile. They smiled and laughed. + +"Look, we made a huge pile!" Lily said. + +"It's the biggest and best pile ever!" Max said. + +They hugged each other and ran to the pile. They jumped on it and had fun. Mom watched them and smiled. She was happy. +Lily liked to write. She wrote on paper, on walls, on books, on anything she could find. She did not care if she made a mess or if she ruined things. She thought writing was fun and she did not listen to her mom or dad when they told her to stop. + +One day, it was winter. Lily saw the snow outside and wanted to play. She put on her coat, her hat, her gloves, and her boots. She ran outside and saw a big snowman. She thought it would be funny to write on the snowman. She took a stick and wrote "Lily is the best" on the snowman's belly. + +But the snowman was not happy. He was very angry. He said, "How dare you write on me? You are very naughty. You should not write on things that are not yours. You should be sorry and say sorry." Lily was scared. She did not know the snowman could talk. She dropped the stick and ran back to her house. + +She told her mom and dad what happened. They were not happy either. They said, "Lily, you did a bad thing. You should not write on the snowman or on anything else that is not yours. You should respect other people's things and be kind. You should go outside and say sorry to the snowman and clean your writing." + +Lily felt bad. She knew she was wrong. She put on her coat, her hat, her gloves, and her boots again. She went outside and said sorry to the snowman. She used her gloves to wipe her writing. The snowman smiled and said, "Thank you, Lily. You are a good girl. You learned your lesson. Writing is good, but only on the right things. Now you can play with me and have fun." + +Lily was happy. She played with the snowman and made him a hat and a scarf. She learned to be careful with her writing and to be nice to others. She had a good winter day. +Lily was a small otter who liked to play in the river with her friends. She was very good at swimming and diving, but she was not very good at sharing. She always wanted to have the best fish and the shiniest shells for herself, and she did not care if the other otters were hungry or sad. + +One day, Lily saw a large fish swimming near the bank. She quickly chased it and caught it in her mouth. She was very proud and happy, and she did not want to share it with anyone. She swam away from the other otters and hid under a big rock. She thought she was very clever and lucky. + +But she did not know that a large eagle was watching her from the sky. The eagle was hungry and wanted to eat the fish too. He saw Lily hiding under the rock and swooped down to grab her. Lily was scared and tried to escape, but it was too late. The eagle had her in his claws and flew away. + +The other otters heard Lily's cry and looked up. They saw the eagle carrying her away and felt sorry for her. They wished they could help her, but they did not know how. They gathered together and prayed for Lily's safety. + +The eagle took Lily to his nest on a high tree. He was about to eat her and the fish, when he heard a loud roar. It was a large bear who lived in the forest. The bear was hungry and wanted to eat the eagle and his food. He climbed the tree and attacked the eagle. The eagle was scared and tried to fight back, but it was too late. The bear had him in his jaws and bit him. + +Lily saw the bear and the eagle fighting and felt sorry for them. She wished they could live in peace, but she did not know how. She gathered her courage and jumped out of the nest. She fell to the ground and ran away. + +She ran back to the river and found her friends. They were happy to see her and hugged her. They asked her what happened and she told them everything. She said she was sorry for being selfish and greedy, and she wanted to share her fish and shells with them. They forgave her and thanked her. They gathered around her and ate the fish and shells together. They were very proud and happy, and they did not care if the fish was small or the shells were dull. + +Lily learned a lesson that day. She learned that sharing is caring, and that being kind and generous is better than being mean and stingy. She also learned that life is full of dangers and surprises, and that she should be grateful for what she has and who she has. She became a better otter and a better friend. +Ben and Lily were playing in the park. They saw a big slide and ran to it. Ben wanted to go first, but Lily said, "No, I want to go first. You always go first." + +Ben said, "That's not true. You went first on the swings. Please let me go first on the slide." + +Lily said, "No, I don't want to. It's my turn. You can go after me." + +They started to push and pull each other. They were not happy. + +Mom saw them and came over. She had a camera in her hand. She said, "Stop fighting, Ben and Lily. Why are you so angry?" + +Ben and Lily told Mom what happened. Mom said, "You both want to have fun, right? But you can't have fun if you fight. You need to share and take turns. How about this: I will take a picture of you on the slide, and then you can switch. Then you can both see the picture and smile." + +Ben and Lily liked Mom's idea. They said, "Okay, Mom. We will share and take turns." + +Mom said, "Good. Now, who wants to go first?" + +Ben said, "Lily can go first. I will wait." + +Lily said, "Thank you, Ben. You are nice." + +Lily climbed up the slide and slid down. Mom took a picture of her. She looked happy. + +Then Ben climbed up the slide and slid down. Mom took a picture of him. He looked happy too. + +Mom showed them the pictures on the camera. They saw themselves on the slide. They smiled and hugged each other. + +Mom said, "See? You are both brave and fun. And you are better when you are kind. Now, do you want to play some more?" + +Ben and Lily said, "Yes, Mom. We want to play some more." + +They ran to the swings, holding hands. They were comfortable and happy. Mom followed them, smiling. She was proud of them. +Lila and Sam were thirsty. They had been walking in the hot sand for a long time. They wanted to find water and shade. They saw a big hill with green trees and flowers. They hoped it was an oasis. + +They ran to the hill and climbed up. They saw a clear pool of water and a lot of fruit. They were very happy. They drank some water and ate some fruit. It was delicious. They felt cool and full. + +They saw a man with a big hat and a long stick. He had some camels with him. He smiled and said hello. He said he was a guide.

They asked their mom and dad if they could. Their mom and dad said yes. They thanked the man and climbed on the camels. The man led them to a nice place. They had more fun.

Lily pushes harder, but still nothing. She looks at Ben and frowns. + +Ben takes his pig back and looks at it. He sees that the spring is tight. It is stuck and cannot move. He tries to pull it out, but it is too hard. He feels sad and angry. He likes his pig and he wants it to spring. + +He tells Lily he is sorry and he wants to go home. Lily says it is okay and she is sorry too. She gives Ben a hug and says she still likes his pig. She says maybe they can fix it later or play with something else. + +Ben smiles and hugs Lily back. He says thank you and he still likes her too. He says maybe they can play with her dolls or cars. They pack their toys and walk to their moms.

He laughs. + +"Come on, Lily," he says. "Don't be scared. It is just noise." + +Lily is scared. She does not like the thunder. She does not like the dark clouds. She wants to go inside. She runs to the door and knocks. But no one answers. Mom and Dad are not home. They are at work. + +Lily cries. She is alone. She is cold. She is wet. The rain starts to fall. It falls hard. It falls fast. It hurts her skin. She looks for Sam. But she does not see him. He is still on the swing. He does not hear her. He does not see her. He does not care. + +The rain gets stronger. The thunder gets louder. The wind gets wilder. The swing breaks. Sam falls. He hits his head. He bleeds. He cries. He is hurt. He is alone. He is cold. He is wet. + +No one helps them. No one hears them. No one sees them. They are sad. They are scared. They are sorry. They wish they went inside. They wish they listened to each other. They wish they were safe. But it is too late. It is a bad day. It is a bad ending. +Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily. One day, Lily went outside to play in the rain. The rain made her clothes wet and her hair wet too.
